PODCAST: "What it Means to Stand Together" Imam Khalid Latif on faith leadership and collaboration
"What it Means to Stand Together"
Imam Khalid Latif
Maggi Van Dorn with
Imam Khalid Latif, University Chaplain, Global Spiritual Life at NYU;
Executive Director, The Islamic Center at NYU;
Senior Fellow & Co-Founder, Of Many Institute for Multifaith Leadership;
Adjunct Assistant Professor, NYU Wagner
"Legitimacy can be established through credentials … or it can be established through a track record and work experience, that you have indicated through some type of continuous effort that you are someone worth listening to."
"Our bigger challenge today is … the amount of indifference that exists. That you see injustice taking place in front of you, and you have the the ability to do something about it, and you still don't. You can have a perspective on a person or a community that they represent, without having ever met someone from that community."
"Find the courage to go and be with those who are different rather than waiting for them to be with you."
In this episode of our free podcast series "NYC Faith Leaders," Maggi Van Dorn interviews Imam Khalid Latif, who shares with us his experience as the first Muslim chaplain of NYU, the emerging faith leadership of young adults, and how conviction inspires and necessitates a person to work across faith lines.
We're pleased that this episode will be the first entry in the storybank of Religions for Peace USA's "Our Muslim Neighbor" initiative, a long-term collective impact effort geared toward combating Islamophobia with a positive, informed, and consistent message of Islam and Muslims in the U.S.
We hope you will not just listen to this series, but download the podcasts to hear while driving, jogging, or washing the dishes. And subscribe in order to be alerted when new installments are available. It's a great way to learn about the faiths of our New York City neighbors.

A day after the RNC and John McCain himself criticized Barack Obama both for supporting a bailout package for Wall Street and contributing to its defeat, the Arizona Republican is up with an ad denouncing partisanship on the matter.
Titled "Week," the spot reflects Obama's statesmanlike track in the wake of the economic crises.
"What a week. Democrats blamed Republicans, Republicans blamed Democrats. We're the United States of America. It shouldn't take a crisis to pull us together. We need a President who can avert crisis. Put people back to work. Grow our economy. And move people from surviving to thriving. We need leadership without painful new taxes. That will make our country strong again."
Of course, had McCain not just attacked Obama in a speech yesterday the ad would be a bit more credible. But it's not just him. Surrogates to the Senator and the RNC have been all over the map in their messaging: blaming Democrats for the bailout's failure, crediting McCain for bringing House Republicans on board, and, of course, calling for partisanship to be put aside.
UPDATE: The Obama campaign responds
"In the latest sign of his increasingly erratic campaign, John McCain is actually running an ad attacking behavior that he himself exhibited in blaming this financial crisis on Barack Obama. What a week indeed," said Obama-Biden spokesman Hari Sevugan.

On Sunday the Eskimos cut down their roster to the CFL mandated 46 players by releasing nine players and assigning nine players to their practice roster
NAT WR Natey Adjei
INT DB Cameron Fuller
INT LB Jimmy Gaines
NAT DB Raye Hartmann
NAT WR Andrew Johnson
INT DL Sam Montgomery
INT DB CJ Morgan
NAT DB Cauchy Muamba
INT RB Akeem Shavers
Added to the Practice Roster:
NAT LB Josh Brinkworth
INT WR Kenzel Doe
NAT FB DJ Lalama
INT LB Darryl McBride Jr.
INT DB Solomon Means
INT WR Bryant Mitchell
INT OL Darius Morris
INT DB Tyler Thornton
INT WR Brandon Zylstra
A couple of notable cuts were safety Cauchy Muamba who missed almost all of training camp with a heel injury. The other was running back Akeem Shavers who suffered an arm injury which would have sidelined him long term. Head caoch Jason Maas says injuries factored into the roster decisions.
One surprise is the team's decision to keep four quarterbacks in starter Mike Reilly and backups James Franklin, Jordan Lynch, and Thomas DeMarco. For now both Ed Hervey and Jason Maas are happy hanging on to all of their quarterbacks.
The Eskimos enter the season with a new coaching staff led by head coach Jason Maas and several new faces on the team which doesn't faze Ed Hervey.
The Eskimos will begin preparations for their season and home opener on Tuesday and will play the Ottawa REDBLACKS on Saturday afternoon on The Brick Field at Commonwealth Stadium. The pre-game show on 630 CHED begins at 3:30pm, the kick-off is at 5pm.

Seeking the Truth, Restoring Integrity February 29, 2008Posted by Fr. Felmar Castrodes Fiel, SVD in JPIC, Politics.
Tags: Bishop Angel Lagdameo, CBCP
This is the full text of the CBCP Pastoral Statement:
Beloved People of God:
Greetings in the peace of the Lord!
Today in the midst of restlessness and confusion, we come to you as pastors, for that is our precise role. We do not come as politicians whose vocation it is to order society towards the common good. Our message contributes to the flourishing of a democracy which must not be built only on political formulae.
We face today a crisis of truth and the pervading cancer of corruption. We must seek the truth and we must restore integrity. These are moral values needing spiritual and moral insights.
Therefore, we address this pastoral statement to everyone particularly you our beloved people and in a special way to our political rulers and officials.
We are convinced that the search for truth in the midst of charges and allegations must be determined and relentless, and that the way to truth and integrity must be untrammeled, especially at the present time when questions about the moral ascendancy of the present government are being raised.
For this reason, we strongly:
1. Condemn the continuing culture of corruption from the top to the bottom of our social and political ladder;
2. Urge the President and all the branches of government to take the lead in combating corruption wherever it is found;
3. Recommend the abolition of EO 464 so that those who might have knowledge of any corruption in branches of government, may be free to testify before the appropriate investigating bodies;
4. Ask the President to allow her subordinates to reveal any corrupt acts, particularly about the ZTE-NBN deal, without being obstructed in their testimony no matter who is involved;
5. Appeal to our senators and the ombudsman to use their distinct and different powers of inquiry into alleged corruption cases not for their own interests but for the common good;
6. Call on media to be a positive resource of seeking the truth and combating corruption by objective reporting without bias and partiality, selective and tendentious reporting of facts;
For the long term we reiterate our call for "circles of discernment" at the grassroots level, in our parishes, Basic Ecclesial Communities, recognized lay organizations and movements, religious institutions, schools, seminaries and universities. It is through internal conversion into the maturity of Christ through communal and prayerful discernment and action that the roots of corruption are discovered and destroyed. We believe that such communal action will perpetuate at the grassroots level the spirit of People Power so brilliantly demonstrated to the world at EDSA I. It is People Power with a difference. From the grassroots will come out a culture of truth and integrity we so deeply seek and build. We instruct our CBCP Commissions to take active role including networking for this purpose.
May the Lord bless us in this sacred undertaking to build a new kind of Philippines and may our Blessed Mother be our companion and guide in this journey to truth and integrity.
For and on behalf of the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines:
+Angel Lagdameo, D.D.
Archbishop of Jaro

hehehehe asar na naman ang mga anti-gloria nito who were dying to ask the bishops to lead in calling gloria arroyo to resign. it is true we cannot solve corruption by changing presidents. we have to do our share individually kasi culture na nga ito eh. expect that for a long time corruption will be there and if there are no people like you and me who will initiate honesty and transparency in our little ways, we can never solve the crisis of truth. it will always start with personal conversion. di ba, frater?

Thank you.
John 8:32and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."
- 3. mdgspencer - March 9, 2008
I will be retiring to the Philippines soon. My wife from there has opened my eyes to the pervasive corruption there in every level of government. Good for the bishops for trying to do something about this. Why is the Philippines a poor country while other Asian countries have done so well? Such as Japan and China? I can only believe that it is such corruption that holds the country back from economic success.
- 4. rlg94086 - March 9, 2008
I agree. It is the main reason that so many Filipinos work outside of the country. According to this article from 2006, 23% of the work force is employed in other countries and they bring in 13% of the country's revenue.

ang dami kong gustong sabihin.. but i can t put anything into words.. i cant even contain myself to one cetain point, i cant judge because i didn't saw, i cant simply throw my verdict because i know nothing.. im simple and im living my life in simplicity, if only everybody could be a child.. whose minds are not so broad, and whose perspectives are not so huge, whose ideas are not biased.. if we would only think for our own contentment and not seek for anything more… the world, not only the phil would be a greater world than ever…

Building Defects Survey And Diagnosis Construction Essay
Published: Last Edited:
This essay has been submitted by a student. This is not an example of the work written by our professional essay writers.
Q1 - Explain the likely causes of the cracking and the movement within the external walls of the property as well as suggesting appropriate remedies.
After examining the cracking and movement on the exterior elevations of the property, it appears to be suffering from differential settlement on the rear elevation, and subsidence / differential movement on the side elevation.
The subsidence / differential movement on the side elevation of the property is shown by diagonal cracking this movement is widening the mortar beds horizontally.
The above could have been caused by seasonal movement, tree roots, poor workmanship during initial installation, broken drains or variable ground conditions to name a few.
Due to the limitations of the survey it would be virtually impossible to give a true diagnosis of the defect affecting the side elevation without undertaking a further investigation in the form of a trial pit for a more detailed inspection.
During the initial survey it was noted, that a rain water pipe was located on the corner of the rear elevation of the property that connects directly into the rain water gully otherwise known as a RWG.
This RWG could have been damaged by one of the reasons mentioned in one of the above paragraphs.
Any damage to this RWG would allow rainwater to leak from the RWG potentially causing subsidence / differential movement by washing the ground strata beneath the foundation away.
It is also thought that the differential settlement on the rear elevation of the property is directly linked to the damaged RWG as the ground strata supporting the foundations is being eroded away.
Another fault picked up in the survey was that the pointing had failed in several areas of the property allowing wind driven rain to enter the building potentially leading to cavity wall tie or lintel failure.
The property also appears to be bowing on the front & side elevations, this could have been caused by either the weight of the replacement concrete roofing tiles, lateral restraint issues, cavity wall tie failure or an insufficient amount of cavity wall ties installed during construction.
Remedial work
It is recommended that a reputable contractor be employed to run a CCTV drainage camera into the drain located by the damaged part of the property to see if there is any damage to the drain.
If the drain appears to be undamaged, then a trial pit will need to be excavated to determine the problem of underground movements at the rear and the western side of the property.
Once the trial pits are excavated and the level of damage to foundation and ground strata is determined, the contractor can then traditionally underpin the property.
Traditional underpinning is effectively a method of installing a foundation that is inadequate or where one doesn't exist.
The BRE states that, "Underpinning may be defined as the process of providing new permanent support beneath a structure without removing it, often so as to increase the capacity of the structure" (1991/P1)
The foundation is installed in sections, uninterrupted sections support the building until the newly installed reinforced concrete sections can take the load before moving onto to the next section of the foundation, this process reduces the vulnerability of the foundation during the remedial works.
It is recommended that a reputable contractor be employed, to remove the defective pointing from the property, and replace it with new pointing. This pointing is mixed with a water proofing additive, which ensures weather tightness is restored to the property.
As mentioned previously the property appears to bowing, it is recommended that a cavity wall inspection be undertaken to determine the condition and the number of installed cavity wall ties.
Once the inspection is complete the contractor can then install the replacement helical wall ties to the property, in accordance with the building regulations and manufactures guidelines.
After the helical wall ties have been installed the walls should then be strapped to floors using lateral restraint straps to ensure that no more movement takes places.
Q2 - Explain the cause of dampness evident around the windows and on the ceiling as well as suggesting appropriate remedies.
After viewing the interior of the property, it was evident that some of the rooms are suffering from a combination of condensation and dampness, this dampness is penetrating through the gaps between the property and the window jambs.
The reasons for damp penetrating through gaps between the property and the window jambs are as follows.
The mastic sealant that was installed around the window frames during the original installation, some 60 years ago, could have become perished over this period of time and failed.
This breakdown of the mastic sealant will allow wind driven rain to penetrate through the gaps between the frame and property into the interior window reveal. This could potentially lead to the window reveals becoming a cold surface which in turn could lead to surface condensation or more seriously interstitial condensation.
Another potential cause of the dampness could be with the age of the actual property itself as the property is some 60 years old. It is highly unlikely that any window jamb damp proof course, otherwise known as DPC was installed into the cavity wall during the original fitting of the windows.
If any window jamb DPC was installed during the original installation of the window frames then there is a possibility that they have failed over this period of time.
The BRE Good Repair Guide No8 states that, "Dampness at window reveals can indicate that window jamb dpcs are defective or absent" (1997/P2)
This window jamb DPC failure will allow damp to penetrate to the interior window reveal, potentially leading to the window reveal becoming a cold surface which in turn could lead to surface condition or more seriously interstitial condensation.
The patches of mold that are located on the ceiling are caused by condensation; condensation can form in a room given the right conditions some of the more common condition can be found below.
The lack of ventilation within the property stops it from breathing in a sense, high levels of humidity are generated from general household activities such as washing, cooking, bathing or even breathing.
This humid air remains trapped inside the property, with no means of natural or mechanical ventilation in the rooms the moist humid air will settle on any cold surfaces.
Cold surfaces can be created in a room, by not providing a sufficient amount of heat into the room or by only heating the room intermittently.
This situation can be exacerbated, by an absent or defective DPC in the window jambs or by no insulation on the internal window reveals. As well as poor quality mastic installation, during the original installation of the windows.
Remedial Work
It is recommended that reputable contractor be employed to install internal thermal insulation.
This internal insulation will provide an additional thermal barrier which will assist in keeping any heat generated locked within the room, and more importantly the property itself.
During the installation of the internal thermal insulation, the contractor will install additional insulation into the window reveals, this will insulation will stop condensation forming on the reveal.
It is also recommended that the contractor remove the perished mastic sealant from the window frames, and then reseal them with weather proof mastic, thus ensuring weather tightness between the frame and building.
Adequate levels of ventilation should be installed into the property, in order to allow the rooms breathe. As well as ensuring that there are a sufficient amount of air changes within the property.
The BRE Good Repair Guide No21 states that, "Buildings need ventilation to get rid of the water vapour generated in the home by washing, cooking and just plain breathing, in order to avoid condensation and consequent mould growth" (1998/P1)
Recommend that the owner / occupier runs the gas central heating system more often to raise the internal core temperature of the building, this increase in temperature will assist in protecting the property from condensation.
Q3 - Looking at the photo of the rear elevation with the man looking into the cavity. The ground level appears to have been raised and is almost level with the surface of the step.
What damp problems are likely, especially if there are mortar blockages near the ground floor? What remedies are required?
After viewing the rear elevation of the property it was evident that the property has a drilled chemical injection damp proof course otherwise known as a DPC.
However the tarmac finish in the backyard has reduced the distance between the DPC and the ground level, anything less than the required 150mm splash zone could result in the DPC being breached and potentially leading to rising damp.
Any surface water that pools either on the hard tarmac surface, or against the external wall of the property will over a period of time, cause the masonry brickwork to become saturated.
The above problem is exacerbated when rainwater splashes up beyond the DPC off the tarmac, or any remaining lodged water potentially causing further localised saturation of the masonry brickwork as well as increasing the potential risk of rising damp and frost attack.
Once the external masonry brickwork becomes saturated above the DPC, the moisture in the brickwork will travel upwards through capillary action.
As the moisture travels up through the brickwork, it will come into contact with the cavity wall ties. Cavity wall constructions can be bridged by many things such as mortar that has fallen onto the cavity wall ties, or any construction debris that might have fallen into the cavity during the construction of the property.
The BRE Good Repair Guide No5 states that, "in a cavity wall, the cavity could be bridged by a build-up of mortar droppings" (1997/P2)
Depending on the level of mortar droppings on the cavity wall ties and the amount of construction debris in the cavity, this will determine the amount of damp that will penetrate through to the internal wall and concrete floor of the property, as well as the level of potential damage.
Remedial work
In order to remedy this, it is recommended that a reputable groundwork contractor be employed to reduce the ground level in any areas around the property to the recommended distance of 150mm between the DPC and ground level.
It is also recommended that a reputable DPC contractor be employed to replace the existing DPC with a physical DPC membrane.
An additional recommendation would be to employ a reputable cavity wall contractor, to undertake a cavity wall survey, in order to ascertain level of mortar on the cavity wall ties as well as the amount of debris in the cavity.
Any mortar droppings or construction debris found during the survey will be removed eliminating the risk of bridging from the cavity.
Q4 - What may be the cause of the pyramid shape cracking above the front door?
The pyramid cracking above the front door of the property would generally indicate that the lintel has failed above the front door.
A possible reason for the failure of this lintel might have something to do with the age of the property itself. The property was constructed in the 1950's giving the lintel an age of around 60 years.
Depending on the construction and quality of the original installation, and also the environment that it has been subjected to, then any defective pointing will allow wind driven rain to enter the property. This may have caused the lintel to rot or weaken over this period of time.
It is also a possibility that over the past 60 years, the property may have moved through settlement, this could potentially cause the lintel to fail, which in turn would cause the outer leaf of the property to drop.
It was also noted that the roof of the property is covered with concrete roofing tiles; these tiles add a considerable amount of extra weight and load for the property to withstand. This increase in weight and load could also cause other issues such as lintel failure.
Remedial work
In order to remedy this it recommended that a reputable building contractor be employed to replace the defective lintel above the front door.
The building contractor will install two strong boy acro props above the damaged lintel. These strong boy acro props will support the inner and outer walls of the property allowing the building contactor to remove the defective brickwork and lintel.
As soon as these components have been removed, the replacement catnic steel lintel and exterior brickwork can be installed a long with the slate packers.
Once the brickwork has set, the strong boy acro props can be removed allowing the remaining brickwork to be repaired and pointed. After this has been completed the exterior wall will be completely weather proof.
For further information on lintel replacement please refer to the BRE good building guide issue No1 Repairing or replacing lintels.
Q5 - Looking at the rear elevation showing the chimney stack. Why is dampness likely to get into the roof space?
As the chimney stack is positioned on the ridge of the roof it will normally require two bossed front aprons and two side flashings. These ensure that the chimney stack and house connection are weather tight.
After viewing the chimney stack from the rear elevation of the property, there appears to be a front apron and two side flashings and missing from the chimney stack. These missing pieces of flashing are allowing rain to enter the roof freely via the spaces between the roofing tiles and the chimney stack.
If left over a period of time this rain will cause the chimney breast, ceiling joists, plaster boards as well as any services located in the area will become damp or even saturated causing a host of potential other issues.
Remedial work
It is recommended that a reputable specialist roofing contractor be employed to install the missing bossed front apron and two side flashings.
During the installation of these new pieces of flashing, the existing bossed front apron and side flashings located on the front elevation of the chimney stack should be examined for any damage and replaced where required.
Once the missing front apron and two side flashings have been installed, and the existing front apron and side flashings have been inspected, and/or repaired if required. Then these remedial actions will stop any rain entering the roof via the spaces between the roofing tiles and the chimney stack.

Kenneth Clarke's Cabinet colleagues are urging him to create a government 'granny bond', offering premium rates of interest, to help the elderly who have seen their savings income drop with cuts in interest rates and who will be hit by VAT on fuel bills.
'What we are talking about is 8 per cent on fuel bills,' said one Cabinet minister. 'It is about pounds 60 a year - that's not the end of the world but, coming on top of cuts in interest rates, many elderly people will regard it as the last straw.
'There should be room for ingenuity. A granny bond will be the perfect way of targeting it,'
In a surprise move Mr Clarke is expected to announce an overall reduction in the pounds 253.6bn total for expenditure next year as part of his strategy for 'nurturing' economic recovery by limiting the extent of further tax increases to pounds 2-3bn.
That was seen by Tory right wingers yesterday as total vindication for Thatcherites in the Cabinet, including John Redwood, who were criticised in the summer for calling for cuts in public expenditure rather than tax increases.
Mr Clarke will be able to cut the spending total below the ceiling set by the Cabinet in July because unexpectedly low inflation means the same amount of services can be bought with less cash. Economists at James Capel argue that cutting the assumption for inflation in 1994-95 from 4.25 to 3.5 per cent would allow pounds 1.8bn to be shaved off spending plans.
The pounds 7bn contingency reserve could also be cut without increasing departmental spending to the same degree. This would help to bring spending below target.
The Chancellor made it clear in the Commons last week that recovery was too 'fragile' to risk substantial tax increases on top of the ones already put in the pipeline by Norman Lamont. But this does not rule out a Budget in which the Chancellor takes large amounts of money with one hand and gives most of it back with the other.
City forecasts of the amount the Chancellor will raise in the Budget in the coming financial year vary from pounds 1bn to pounds 5bn, centering on pounds 2bn. Nearly 70 per cent of City economists polled by MMS International expect the Chancellor to move closer to the Government's aim of a 20 per cent basic rate of income tax by widening that tax band and pulling some taxpayers down from the 25 per cent band.
More than 40 per cent of City economists expect this to be paid for by limiting the value of personal tax allowances - the slice of income on which tax does not have to be paid - to the 20 per cent tax rate. This would hit basic and higher rate taxpayers.
The Cabinet was not informed before the cut in interest rates to 5.5 per cent last week. The Cabinet does not see any reason for any further cut in rates, but believes cutting the spending total will help to reassure the financial markets that Mr Clarke is determined to reduce the pounds 50bn borrowing requirement.
Many elderly people with savings, regarded as typical Tory voters, would be denied VAT compensation if it was limited to those on income support.
Mr Lamont, the former Chancellor, yesterday warned Mr Clarke to extend the compensation package on VAT to the 'nearly poor', including those on housing benefit.
The Budget will include confirmation of the Cabinet's widely trailed decision to raise in the next century the women's retirement age to 65 to comply with a European court ruling. It will affect women now aged 44 or below.

Plano West head coach Don Patterson always preaches the importance of team basketball and sharing the load offensively.
His team is practicing what he preaches to perfection this season. On any given night, any number of players could end up being the Lady Wolves' leading scorer.
Since reopening district play in January, West has had five different leading scorers in seven games, and there's usually a player just a point or two behind the leader every night.
In West's win over Flower Mound Marcus on Tuesday, junior guard Allison Staley led the way with 12 points. In Friday's win over Plano East, Paige Womack had a team-high 16 points. Devri Owens, Lindsey Oh, Kiran Lakhian, Tyara Warren, Mattie Swearingen and Randi Reinhardt have also led the team in scoring in a game this season.
This trend has West scoring 63 points per game while giving up just 41 as the Lady Wolves look poised for a state-title run after losing to eventual state champion Irving MacArthur in the third round a year ago.
The Lady Wolves (28-2, 10-0 in 8-5A) have a three-game lead on District 8-5A with four games remaining in the regular season, and the only two losses for ESPNDallas.com's No. 3 team, against state powers MacArthur and DeSoto.
West also boasts experience that it didn't have last year. Six major contributors from last year's team return, including four underclassmen, and -- as always -- West is getting production all the way down its long bench from new contributors.

Which will be first?
Hey everyone!
We were looking over the list of launch titles for the Vita here in the office, and we all have different titles we were looking forward to the most. Warrior's Lair, Gravity Rush, Resistance: Burning Skies, Uncharted: Golden Abyss, there are almost too many good titles to choose from!
So we were curious, what is the first game that you will play on the Vita?
Help us decide which game we should play first!
For a list of titles click here.
Re: Which will be first?
Might I ask what is Warrior's Lair? I have not ever seen that title for a Vita game.
Also, you should try out Gravity Rush because there are many interesting things to the mechnics and the art. Getting a feel for Gravity Rush ground and air melee could prove interesting as well.
Edit: NVM!
I wrote that before realizing there was a thread that explained Ruin has been (recently) renamed to Warriors Lair. I look forward to playing that game!
Re: Which will be first?
The first one I play will probably be Gravity Rush or Escape Plan. I know what to expect (and that I'll enjoy them) from games like Uncharted, Modnation, LittleBigPlanet, etc. With the other two being completely new IP's, I'm just really curious to see what they're like and how they take advantage of the hardware.
Re: Which will be first?
Re: Which will be first?
umm since im gonna get the bundle witch comes out a week before the hard ware sales im gonna be playing little diviants untill little big planet releases idk im not sure witch games to buy
Re: Which will be first?
My first ones will be Gravity Rush then Wipeout 2048 and a AR game called Pocket Garden (working title).

Asia is one area of the world that I'm anxious to explore more fully. I've enjoyed Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, India, Cambodia, and Indonesia, as well as Oman, the United Arab Emirates, and Israel. But I still have to get to Japan, China, Taiwan, the Philippines, and Korea.
Asia has a rhythm and magic that is captivating.

Abstract The neuraminidase (NA) genes of influenza B viruses B/Maryland/59, B/Hong Kong/8/73, B/Singapore/222/79, B/Oregon/5/80, B/USSR/100/83, B/Victoria/3/85, B/Leningrad/179/86, B/Memphis/6/86, and B/Memphis/3/89 have been sequenced. The deduced amino acid sequences show high variability in the stalk domain of the NA, but a surprising degree of sequence conservation in the head region which carries all the antigenic and enzyme activity. The variable region coding for the neuraminidase stalk also translates into a variable section in the overlapping NB polypeptide, which is coded from a second reading frame that overlaps the first 100 amino acids of NA. The influenza B NAs are antigenically distinguishable with monoclonal antibodies in neuraminidase-inhibition tests, even when there is only one amino acid sequence difference. However, seven of nine escape mutants selected with monoclonal antibodies were distinguished only by the antibody used for selection. When NA heads of influenza B viruses are crystallized, there are remarkable differences in crystal morphology between neuraminidases which have very few sequence changes.

Discussion in 'Colorado Basketball Message Board' started by NYbuffDIEHARD, Dec 22, 2015.
Go Buffs.
Wow. I was going to hurry home to watch it. Guess not any more.
Screw it. Going to see Star Wars
Absolutely, with the added absurdity that it's not being streamed live either.
Funny the way coverage works, we get Nicholls and Hampton live but not Penn State.
Fox ****ed up.
Here's RK's tweet about it and Pac 12's statement
And since Fox has the most ridiculous streaming set up of anyone, I.e. they don't have one they don't show anything online either.
That's the live audio link from the CU AD site
Don't worry....Fox Sports 1 is televising Depaul and George Washington during the same time slot. A real thriller to be sure.
Next year? They will solve the problem next year? I DON'T GIVE A **** ABOUT NEXT YEAR!!
Actually, according to KenPom's "FanMatch", that is the better game to watch by far.
Not for us it isn't. And we're all that matter.
You know where you can stick your "FanMatch" ???????????
I actually can't argue that.
This sucks but at least I'll get to watch the antiques roadshow.
Shouldn't we have a clause in our contract that if they don't cover it we can stream it?
DePaul controlled this one for the entire 40. I guess KenPom can't be right every time. At least the GW loss clears a little more room in the Top 25 for any team that is willing to take it.
Pretty ridiculous when you are watching live stats and they say there is a "TV Timeout" for a game that has no TV.
There are still media timeouts every 4 min regardless of its on TV or not.
radio needs commercials too, guys

Chapter Fourteen Process Management1 System Programming Process Management
Chapter Fourteen Process Management2 Processes in Unix Process: basic unit of execution Executing instance of a program Has a process ID (PID) Occurs in a hierarchy of processes (parents and children) Root is the init process Each process has its own state/context/memory Shell commands dealing with processes: ps, top, kill, nice,…
Chapter Fourteen Process Management3 Process state
Chapter Fourteen Process Management4 File Objects and File Descriptors The stdio library provides FILE objects which handle buffering. FILE *stdin, *stdout, *stderr; Why buffering? Efficiency. FILE objects are built on top of file descriptors. A file descriptor is an index into a per-process table of open file descriptors. We will use file descriptors for process management tasks.
Chapter Fourteen Process Management5 Buffering un-buffered – output appears immediately stderr is not buffered line buffered – output appears when a full line has been written. stdout is line buffered when going to the screen block buffered – output appears when a buffer is filled or a buffer is flushed (on close or explicit flush). normally output to a file is block buffered stdout is block buffered when redirected to a file.
Chapter Fourteen Process Management6 File Descriptors Used by low-level I/O open(), close(), read(), write() declared as an integer int fd; A useful system call to convert a FILE object to a fd int fileno( FILE *fp); Of course it is possible to assign a stream interface to a file descriptor FILE *fdopen(int fd, const char *mode);
Chapter Fourteen Process Management7 Process Management Issues System calls dealing with: Creating a process Setting the program a process executes Waiting for a process to terminate Terminating a process Sending signals to a process Communicating between processes
Chapter Fourteen Process Management8 Initializing Unix See "top", "ps –aux" to see what's running The only way to create a new process is to duplicate an existing process. Therefore the ancestor of all processes is init with pid = 1
Chapter Fourteen Process Management9 How csh runs commands When a command is typed, csh forks and then execs the typed command. After the fork, file descriptors 0, 1, and 2 still refer to stdin, stdout, and stderr in the new process. By convention, the executed program will use these descriptors appropriately.
Chapter Fourteen Process Management10 How csh runs
Chapter Fourteen Process Management11 Process Creation The fork system call creates a duplicate of the currently running program. The duplicate (child process) and the original (parent process) both proceed from the point of the fork with exactly the same data. The only difference is the return value from the fork call.
Chapter Fourteen Process Management12 Fork: PIDs and PPIDs System call: int fork() If fork() succeeds it returns the child PID to the parent and returns 0 to the child; If fork() fails, it returns -1 to the parent (no child is created) Related system calls: int getpid() – returns the PID of current process int getppid() – returns the PID of parent process (ppid of 1 is 1) int getpgrp() – returns the group ID of current process
Chapter Fourteen Process Management13 When fork() fails Two possible reasons There is a limit to the maximum number of processes a user can create. Once this limit is reached (i.e., process table full), subsequent calls to fork() return -1. The kernel allocates virtual memory to processes When it runs out of memory, fork calls fails.
Chapter Fourteen Process Management14 fork() properties Properties of parent inherited by child: UID, GID controlling terminal CWD, root directory signal mask, environment, resource limits shared memory segments Differences between parent and child PID, PPID, return value from fork() pending alarms cleared for child pending signals are cleared for child
Chapter Fourteen Process Management15 fork() example int i, pid; i = 5; printf("%d\n", i); pid = fork(); if(pid != 0) i = 6; /* only parent gets here */ else i = 4; /* only child gets here */ printf("%d\n", i);
Chapter Fourteen Process Management16 Fork Example int i, pid; i = 5; printf("%d\n", i); /* prints 5 */ pid = fork(); /* pid == 677 */ if(pid != 0) i = 6; else i = 4; printf("%d\n", i); /* prints 6 */ Original process (parent) Child process int i, pid; i = 5; printf("%d\n", i); pid = fork(); /* pid == 0 */ if(pid != 0) i = 6; else i = 4; printf("%d\n", i); /* prints 4 */
Chapter Fourteen Process Management17 PID/PPID Example #include int main(void) { int pid; printf("ORIG: PID=%d PPID=%d\n", getpid(), getppid()); pid = fork(); if(pid != 0) printf("PARENT: PID=%d PPID=%d\n", getpid(), getppid()); else printf("CHILD: PID=%d PPID=%d\n", getpid(), getppid()); return(1); }
Chapter Fourteen Process Management18 Executing a Program The exec system call replaces the program being run by a process by a different one. The new program starts executing from the beginning. On success, exec never returns, on failure, exec returns -1.
Chapter Fourteen Process Management19 Exec example Program X int i = 5; printf("%d\n", i); exec("Y"); printf("%d\n", i); Program Y printf("hello\n");
Chapter Fourteen Process Management20 exec() properties New process inherits from calling process: PID and PPID, real UID, GID, session ID controlling terminal CWD, root directory, resource limits process signal mask pending signals pending alarms file mode creation mask (umask) file locks
Chapter Fourteen Process Management21 exec() Six versions exec(): execl(char *path, char *arg0, …, (char *)0); execv(char *path, char *argv[]); execle(char *path, char *arg0, …, (char *)0, char *envp[]); execve(char *pathname, char *argv[], char *envp[]); execlp(char *file, char *arg0, …, (char *)0); execvp(char *file, char *argv[]);
Chapter Fourteen Process Management22 Waiting for a Process to Terminate System call to wait for a child int wait(int *status) A process that calls wait() can: block (if all of its children are still running) return immediately with the termination status of a child (if a child has terminated and is waiting for its termination status to be fetched) return immediately with an error (if it doesn't have any child processes. Other wait() calls wait3(), wait4()
Chapter Fourteen Process Management23 Exit Status...macros WIFEXITED(status): true if process called _exit(2) or exit(3) WEXITSTATUS(status): The low-order 8 bits of the argument passed to _exit(2) WIFSIGNALED(status): True if the process terminated due to receipt of a signal. WTERMSIG(status): The number of the signal that caused the termination. WCOREDUMP(status): True if a core file was created. WIFSTOPPED(status): True if the process has not terminated, but has stopped and can be restarted. WSTOPSIG(status): Number of signal that stopped process.
Chapter Fourteen Process Management24 Zombies A zombie process: a process that is "waiting" for its parent to accept its return code a parent accepts a child's return code by executing wait() shows up as Z in ps –a A terminating process may be a (multiple) parent; the kernel ensures all of its children are orphaned and adopted by init.
Chapter Fourteen Process Management25 wait and waitpid wait() can block return with termination status return with error If there is more than one child wait() returns on termination of any children waitpid can be used to wait for a specific child pid. waitpid also has an option to block or not to block
Chapter Fourteen Process Management26 wait and waitpid waitpid has an option to block or not to block pid_t waitpid(pid, &status, option); if pid == -1 wait for any child process if pid == 0 wait for any child process in the process group of the caller if pid > 0 wait for the process with pid if option == WNOHANG non-blocking if option == 0 blocking waitpid(-1, &status, 0); equivalent to wait(&status);
Chapter Fourteen Process Management27 Example of wait #include int main(void) { int status; if(fork() == 0) exit(7); /*normal*/ wait(&status); prExit(status); if(fork() == 0) abort(); /*SIGABRT*/ wait(&status); prExit(status); if(fork() == 0) status /= 0; /*FPE*/ wait(&status) prExit(status); }
Chapter Fourteen Process Management28 prExit.c #include void prExit(int status) { if(WIFEXITED( status ) ) printf("normal termination\n"); else if(WIFSTOPPED( status )) printf("child stopped, signal no.= %d\n", WSTOPSIG(status)); else if(WIFSIGNALLED( status ) ) printf("abnormal termination, signal no.= %d\n",WTERMSIG(status)); }
Chapter Fourteen Process Management29 Process Termination Orphan process: a process whose parent is the init process (PID 1) because its original parent died before it did. Terminating a process: exit(int status) all open file descriptors are closed. Every normal process is a child of some parent, a terminating process sends its parent a SIGCHLD signal and waits for its termination status to be accepted. The Bourne shell stores the termination code of the last command in $?.
Chapter Fourteen Process Management30 Processes and File Descriptors File descriptors are handles to open files. They belong to processes not programs. They are a process's link to the outside world.
Chapter Fourteen Process Management31 FDs preserved across fork and exec
Chapter Fourteen Process Management32 Signals Unexpected/unpredictable asynchronous events floating point error death of a child interval timer expired (alarm clock) control-C (termination request) control-Z (suspend request) Events are called interrupts When the kernel recognizes an event, it sends a signal to the process. Normal processes may send signals.
Chapter Fourteen Process Management33 What are signals for? When a program forks into two or more processes, rarely do they execute independently. The processes usually require some form of synchronization, often handled by signals. To transfer data between processes, we can use pipes and sockets. Signals are generated by machine interrupts the program itself, other programs or the user.
Chapter Fourteen Process Management34 Software Interrupts lists the signal types on CDF. "kill –l" gives a whole list of signals. "man 7 signal" ("man 5 signal" on Solaris) gives some description of various signals SIGTERM, SIGABRT, SIGKILL SIGSEGV, SIGBUS SIGSTOP, SIGCONT SIGCHLD SIGPIPE
Chapter Fourteen Process Management35 Signal table For each process, Unix maintains a table of actions that should be performed for each kind of signal. Here are a few.
Chapter Fourteen Process Management36 Sending a signal From the command line use kill [-signal] pid [pid]… sometimes built into shells (bash) If no signal is specified, kill sends the TERM signal to the process. signal can be specified by the number or name without the SIG. Examples: kill -QUIT 8883 kill -STOP 78911 kill -9 76433 (9 == KILL)
Chapter Fourteen Process Management37 Signaling between processes One process can send a signal to another process using the misleadingly named function call. kill( int pid, int sig ); This call sends the signal sig to the process pid Signaling between processes can be used for many purposes: kill errant processes temporarily suspend execution of a process make a process aware of the passage of time synchronize the actions of processes.
Chapter Fourteen Process Management38 kill usage retval = kill(pid, signal) pid>0 => to that process pid=0 => to process group of sender pid=-1 => all processes (but sender) root -> all but system processes !root -> all with same uid Example kill(1234, SIGINT); Sends an interrupt (signal) of type SIGINT Does not block sending process The process, whose ID is 1234, gets the signal.
Chapter Fourteen Process Management39 What happens at "signal time"? Signal gets "Delivered" to the process Actions... Ignore the signal -- nothings happens (Can't ignore SIGKILL and SIGSTOP) Catch the signal Starts a designated function (Can't catch SIGKILL and SIGSTOP) Default action May ignore it May terminate the process May dump core and terminate process
Chapter Fourteen Process Management40 Signal Handling A function can handle a delivered signal. void (*signal(int sig, void (*func)(int));)() sig -> signal name func -> function name, SIG_DFL or SIG_IGN return -> previous function pointer (or SIG_DFL or SIG_IGN) func is called outside of normal execution order. Example: signal(SIGINT, func); A process which gets the signal SIGINT calls the function func Some UNIXes set this only for the next signal delivery, requiring signal function to reset it again.
Chapter Fourteen Process Management41 Timer signals Three interval timers are maintained for each process: SIGALRM (real-time alarm, like a stopwatch) SIGVTALRM (virtual-time alarm, measuring CPU time) SIGPROF (used for profilers) Useful functions to set and get timer info: sleep() – cause calling process to suspend. usleep() – like sleep() but at a finer granularity. alarm() – sets SIGALRM pause() – suspend until next signal arrives setitimer(), getitimer() sleep() and usleep() are interruptible by other signals.
Chapter Fourteen Process Management42 "Advanced" signal interface #include struct sigaction { void (*sa_handler)(int); sigset_t sa_mask; int sa_flags; }; int sigaction(int sig, const struct sigaction *act, struct sigaction *oact); sa_mask -- a "set" of signals to "block" during handler running. Routines to make signal sets: sigemptyset, sigfillset, sigaddset, sigdelset, sigismember sa_flags -- Controls other things SA_RESTART -- restart system calls that can be restarted
Chapter Fourteen Process Management43 Inter-Process Communication (IPC) Exchanging data between processes We cannot use variables to communicate between processes since they each have separate address spaces, and separate memory. One easy way to communicate is to use files. process A writes to a file and process B reads from it. Two basic paradigms Message passing: processes send information back and forth in messages/ packets Shared Memory: processes share a chunk of physical memory and read/ write data there to share that information
Chapter Fourteen Process Management44 Pipes and File Descriptors After fork() is called we end up with two independent processes. A forked child inherits file descriptors from its parent pipe() creates an internal system buffer and two file descriptors, one for reading and one for writing. After the pipe call, the parent and child should close the file descriptors for the opposite direction. Leaving them open does not permit full-duplex communication.
Chapter Fourteen Process Management45 Pipelines and Job Control Want entire pipeline as a single process group. ps aux | grep dhcli | grep -v grep | cut -c5-10 fork a process to do entire pipeline and be group leader sh -> fork -> sh2 sh2 -> fork -> exec ps -> fork -> exec grep -> exec cut OR -> fork -> exec cut -> wait for all children
Chapter Fourteen Process Management46 Producer/Consumer Problem Simple example: who | wc –l Both the writing process ( who ) and the reading process ( wc) of a pipeline execute concurrently. A pipe is usually implemented as an internal OS buffer. It is a resource that is concurrently accessed by the reader and the writer, so it must be managed carefully.
Chapter Fourteen Process Management47 Producer/Consumer Consumer blocks when buffer is empty Producer blocks when buffer is full They should run independently as far as buffer capacity and contents permit They should never be updating the buffer at the same instant (otherwise data integrity cannot be guaranteed) Harder problem if there is more than one consumer and/or more than one producer.
Chapter Fourteen Process Management48 Case study
Chapter Fourteen Process Management49 What happens after fork?
Chapter Fourteen Process Management50 Direction of data flow?
Chapter Fourteen Process Management51 Direction of data flow?
Chapter Fourteen Process Management52 IPC with Pipes Example of message passing int fds[2]; retval = pipe(fds); Creates two file descriptors (a pipe is a file), the first for reading, and the second for writing How does another process connect to this pipe?
Chapter Fourteen Process Management53 dup and dup2() Often we want the stdout of one process to be connected to the stdin of another process. int dup(int oldfd); int dup2(int oldfd, int newfd); Copies oldfd pointer to newfd location. Does not change open file table, just process fd table. Two process fd entries point to the same open file table entry. dup: returns first unused fd in process table dup2: if newfd is open, it is first closed, then dup(oldfd) is called. Note that dup2() refer to fds not streams
Chapter Fourteen Process Management54 dup2()
Chapter Fourteen Process Management55 pipe()/dup2() example /* equivalent to "sort < file1 | uniq" */ int fd[2], pid; int filedes = open("file1", O_RDONLY); dup2(filedes, fileno(stdin)); close(filedes); pipe(fd);
Chapter Fourteen Process Management56 pipe()/dup2() example if((pid = fork()) == 0) {/* child */ dup2(fd[1], fileno(stdout)); close(fd[0]); close(fd[1]); execl("/usr/bin/sort", "sort", (char *) 0); } else if(pid > 0){ /* parent */ dup2(fd[0], fileno(stdin)); close(fd[1]); close(fd[0]); execl("/usr/bin/uniq", "uniq", (char *) 0); } else { perror("fork"); exit(1); }

Chapter Fourteen Process Management66 Reading and writing to a pipe A read on an empty pipe will block until there is something to read. A write on a full pipe will block until there is more space. (Pipes have a finite size.) Writing to a pipe that has been closed by the other end will result in a SIGPIPE or "Broken Pipe" message. Read will return 0 if the write end of the pipe is closed.

After narrowing his decision down in early December and officially setting up visits to all of three of his current favorites for January, 3-Star Defensive End, Audie Augustine is nearing decision time.
"I've got it down to my top three schools," Augustine said. "They are currently NC State, South Carolina and Pittsburgh."
Augustine will take his first visit to Raleigh on the 6th, followed by an official visit to Columbia (SC) on the 13th and his final visit on the 20th to Pittsburgh.
"I like all the schools the same right now," Augustine claimed. "I'd say they all have different things that I like about them. I'm just looking forward to my visits to see if what the coaches have been saying to me, and talking about, are true. I want to see how I feel once I get on campus and how much each school excites me."
The Oakland Park (FL) Northeast standout sports a tremendous offer list, but says his college decision will ultimately depend on what he sees in the visit after two weeks of listening to coaches who came to visit him.
"I'm gonna look at surroundings, population," Augustine continued. "The weather, the team as a whole and the coaching staff - those are the types of things that I'm gonna be looking at."
Augustine broke down his three favorites independantly.
NC State: I like the fact that the head coach and the position coach came to see me and talked with me and my parents. I like how hard they've been recruiting me and want me. My parents really liked the way that the coaches talked to me and they generally aren't like that.
The Wolfpack coaches have described, in great detail, what kind of player they feel Audie Augustine could potentially be. After coaching two potential top 10 draft picks at defensive ends, they feel the 6-foot-2, 235 pound end can have similar results.
"They've got a great defense at NC State," Augustine claimed. "They said they are going to have 2 top 10 defensive ends in the draft. Those guys play the position I'll be playing in college, so that obviously tells you how good of a job they are at getting kids prepared for the draft."
South Carolina: "I mean, Steve Spurrier. He's done an amazing job to get them turned around alreaedy. I like the way that Steve Spurrier, Jr. has been recruiting me. He's very down to earth and I like his personality. It's very similar to mine and I like that."
Pittsburgh: "Dave Wannstedt, ya know, he's an ex-Dolphin coach so he knows what he's doing and what he's talking about. He's coached in the NFL and now he's back at Pitt. He's done a great job recruiting around the country and a lot of other guys are excited about the program. They got a good class coming in. Coach Patridge talks to me about how I fit in the future and I like what he's been saying."
Augustine, a three-star prospect and considered the No. 43 defensive end in the country according to Scout.com, garnered more than twenty offers during the recruiting process.
