Re: What is the current status of mobile printing for MSOE?Paul Fabian Mar 21, 2014 11:11 AM (in response to Gerald Soriano)
I'm certain this is something we can look at. Along those same lines, as an engineering school, I'd like to see more people adopt a digital approach.
Imagine you're running late to class, and your essay is saved as a PDF on your MSOE Box account. You open Box on your mobile device and share the PDF with your instructor. Done. Now with the extra time you have, you stop at Starbucks and get a half-caff, soy, pumpkin spice venti latte with caramel drizzle. Already the day is better.
I realize this won't be the case with everything, and printing will probably never completely go away, but one can dream.

Thanks for your response Paul Fabian! I'm glad that you share a vision for digital services.
I am curious to see if there are any universal mobile printing software out there that MSOE may be able to easily implement.
If not, will MSOE students and faculty/staff be able to band together to create this future service?
And props to the IT department for granting cloud storage to MSOE. Box is amazing!
Re: What is the current status of mobile printing for MSOE?Jen Haro Mar 21, 2014 6:30 PM (in response to Gerald Soriano)
I agree with you Gerald Soriano that mobile printing would be a great addition to the printing services that we currently offer. I also agree with Paul Fabian that it would be fantastic to see less printing/copying overall at MSOE. I know that the second part isn't always a popular notion, but we look at lowering costs whenever we can and paper-reduction (not necessarily elimination) is always something to consider.
Back to the mobile printing question, we have already started the process of reviewing solutions that would add the mobile ability to our existing physical systems. Given the variety of devices and operating systems out there in the mobile classification, it is a challenge to find a solution that will provide the same level of service for all users.
We will continue to evaluate and consider the impact of the different mobile printing options at MSOE. I welcome input on the topic from you and any other student/faculty/staff member that would like us to know what they would like to see implemented.
Thanks for the props for the addition of Box services and keep an eye out for more exciting additions to the MSOE technology portfolio!
Re: What is the current status of mobile printing for MSOE?Brandon Blanke Dec 8, 2015 12:15 PM (in response to Jen Haro)
With the introduction of Papercut as print service provider will mobile printing be activated?
Here is a link to papercut's page discussing Mobile and BYOD printing and the features are included by default.
I have been in talks with some faculty/staff about mobile printing across mobile devices, specifically smart phones and tablets.
Imagine, being late to class and you forgot to print out your essay. You rush out of your room forgetting your computer and the only mobile device that you have is your smart phone. Now, your class is located a fair distance away from the library so you won't be able to print your essay using a laptop. However, you stored your essay on your MSOE Box account. With your smart phone you were able to access your essay and print it out right before coming to class.
With mobile printing, I was hoping that you will be able to print from the mobile devices I specified above. Overall, its just a convenient service to have but I am curious as to its current development and the technology already available.
Does anyone else know about the current standing of MSOE mobile printing?
Thank you to Dana Grennier, Walter Schilling, and Mark Sebern for listening to my talk about mobile printing today.
Hopefully this could be a potential service for MSOE in the future!
Thank you,
Gerald Soriano

For Mitt Romney, the love that dare not speak its name is "vouchers." Two weeks after he delivered a major address on education policy in which he never mentioned the V word, the New York Times detailed Romney's proposal to divert $25 billion in taxpayer dollars to religious, private and for-profit schools. But voters don't have to imagine what that plan, an old GOP twofer designed to subsidize Christian institutions while bludgeoning Democratic-friendly teachers unions, will do to American public education. As the frightening results in states like Louisiana, Indiana, Georgia and Arizona show, the Republican voucher dream is fast becoming America's nightmare present.
Governor Romney has been an advocate of so-called "school choice" since his first run for the White House. In 2007, Romney suggested American parents should not only be encouraged to abandon the public schools; they should be rewarded for it with a tax break for home schooling their kids:
"I also believe parents who are teaching their kids at home, homeschoolers, deserve a break, and I've asked for a tax credit to help parents in their homes with the cost of being an at-home teacher."
Now, as the Republican nominee outlined in a recent speech to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Romney wants to redirect $25 billion from two federal programs into a new voucher scheme. As the New York Times explained:
As president, Mr. Romney would seek to overhaul the federal government's largest programs for kindergarten through 12th grade into a voucherlike system. Students would be free to use $25 billion in federal money to attend any school they choose -- public, charter, online or private -- a system, he said, that would introduce marketplace dynamics into education to drive academic gains.
But as the experience in Indiana and Louisiana suggests, that system would instead introduce large quantities of public cash into the coffers of religious schools and academies whose educational credentials may be suspect at best.

By Gene Sloan, USA TODAY
Ever since Royal Caribbean first announced plans nearly four years ago for a cruise ship that could hold more than 6,000 people, there have been plenty of naysayers.
Many industry watchers, including a long list of top executives at competing lines, said the bet-the-company, $1.4 billion investment in Oasis of the Seas – at 225,282 tons, nearly 50% larger than any other cruise ship afloat – was a huge mistake.
But the reaction so far from travel agents and travel writers who have toured Oasis is almost overwhelmingly positive. The consensus: Royal Caribbean has done something revolutionary.
"I was prepared to be underwhelmed," cruise writer Phil Reimer wrote at Canada.com. "After departing the ship this week, I have gone from cynic to convert. This ship is a game-changer."
"Oasis far exceeded my expectations," says travel agent Amber Blecker of Cruises Inc., who spent several days on board. "The only major functional challenge I see is in cabin selection," she says, noting the complexity of the vessel's 37 different cabin categories.
Still, some big questions remain. Will the ship simply feel too crowded? Will it be a nightmare to get on and off the vessel, both at its home port of Fort Lauderdale and in the destinations it visits?
Royal Caribbean has had only 3,000 to 4,000 people at a time on the ship this past week during inaugural festivities, well below its maximum capacity of 6,296. And most of the travel agents, Wall Street analysts, media and officials who toured the vessel spent at most two days on board. Many just came for the day.
"It's too soon to judge the entire experience," says Mike Driscoll, editor of Cruise Week. "There's simply too much you can't tell when (visiting for just a day or two) when the experience itself will be a seven-day cruise to the Caribbean islands."
Driscoll says there are still questions about the vessel's entertainment: "Will the Broadway musical Hairspray (planned for the ship's main theater) be good or will it be boring? Will the dive shows at AquaTheater be a beautiful experience, or, like some we've seen on land, have people yawning after the first few dives?"
Driscoll notes, though, that the public appears to have moved beyond such questions and embraced the ship. "During the height of a recession, rates for 2010 sailings actually increased from when they first went on sale. And they weren't cheap to begin with," he says. "That's extraordinary in this economic climate."
The overwhelmingly positive response from travel agents who have seen the ship this week, moreover, makes it pretty much a done deal that bookings for the coming summer will soar, pushing rates even higher, Driscoll says.
"It may not sell out all categories, but word of mouth from agents will be strongly favorable, so if you hold off on booking until the last moment, it won't work to your advantage with this ship," he predicts.
Clearly, the ship isn't for everyone, Driscoll says. But it has a natural appeal to fans of Royal Caribbean's big-ships formula and, more broadly, the mega-resorts of places like Las Vegas.
"If you like big ships and the destinations themselves aren't particularly important but vacationing in a unique ship environment in nice weather is, then you'll like this ship," he says.
"It's for Middle America – those millions watching Dancing With the Stars who like to vacation in places like Vegas."

The tilt and angle functions of the blade made for easy cross slope adjustments (insloping and outsloping) and actually some pretty dececent rough cut berms. Thanks to the pretty significant blade angle possible. I also used it to rehab some of the social routes with excellent results. It is 30" wide but I found that by cutting partial bench and putting the outside tracks on the spoils, you could end up with a 24" full bench trail. On steeper side slopes you have to go full bench.

The best thing about a first-class seat shouldn't be merely its ability to flatten into a bed, as it is on most domestic airlines. Instead, they should embody the "suite" labeling pursued by airlines such as United and American. First, upgrade the technology. Televisions should be widescreen LCDs and play digital on-demand content on all flights, not prehistoric tapes. And can we not build in noise-canceling headphones instead of begging to have them passed out an hour into the flight and collecting them so long before arrival? Both sides of the seats should offer a privacy screen so a sleeping face isn't exposed to travelers passing en route to the bathroom or a flight attendant's occasional knee. Duplicating great amenity kits with some designer collaborations (who wouldn't love a Ralph Lauren tote?) or just offering such things as the Emirates Airlines in-seat minibar with full-size snacks and upgraded alcohols goes a long way toward satiating service-hungry passengers. Ditch the flying port-a-potty
Why is it that the typical airline bathroom hasn't changed since the advent of the jet age? If you're seated in first class you sometimes get a wider selection of toiletries such as those facial sprays on United, but other times not so much -- like on a certain rival airline that didn't even replace the paper towels on a recent eight-hour flight. While we understand that some airlines will never be able to offer the showers offered on Emirates, would it be too much to offer a wider sink with better fixtures, or a color other than beige for travelers often paying 10 times the median economy-class ticket for the same trip? It's all about service
Annoyed by the ticket agent, visually sickened by the first-class lounge and perplexed by the dated plane, many travelers simple expect that even an international first-class flight will be a long one. But then came the Sunday edition of The New York Times even before takeoff, still crisp and relevant, and efficient flight attendants that never forgot a drink or let empty trays linger too long. Astute service can switch a traveler's focus from the dated seat to enjoying service that should be the norm, not the exception. Even if you don't change a single physical thing for first-class travelers, at the very least bring the service mentality back to airline travel. Flying should be more like checking into a hotel and less like getting onto the bus, especially in first class. >To submit a news tip, email: firstname.lastname@example.com.

The Georgia Black Caucus tried to stop the secession citing the fact the new cities were "a superwhite majority". Their lawsuit was thrown out.
Isn't that racist on their part?
So the taxpayers left the freeloaders. Hmmm....
Well if at first you don't secede...try, try, again!

The working middle class telling the professionally needy and their so called leaders adios, as Atlanta becomes the Detroit of the South.
Those folks are true Americans.
The neighborhoods are primarily white because they are the majority percentage normally. So, in newly built neighborhoods they will be mostly white because of income and because decent neighborhoods are always primarily white.
If they have the majority to seceed from the city, good for them. Cities annex outlying areas for the tax money but without the ability to expand services in kind. Just leeching to keep the city going that the suburbian's paid to move away from.
Good for these people. I'd like to see this happen in Houston.
Why Houston ?
Texas is already known for wanting to secede from the US. And Houston should secede from Texas ?
Haha, no. Nice burbs like small town sprung up far enough from the city of Houston boundaries to escape the degrading of nice neighborhoods, and the continual hiking of all manner of taxes while services were gradually getting worse, especially the schools.
When the city saw how prosperous these newly sprung up town were, they began annexing them against the will of the people in those new burb towns to steal the new mid to affluent tax base.
That's what I meant. These areas were taken hostily, and I hope they find ways to seceed from the city of Houston.

Can a job offer be withdrawn due to number of days of sickness?
Think if you follow action suggested, then you might just concentrate minds re DDA !
Thank you for the advice. I've never had a period of sickness like this (just an odd day or two here and there) and it's a shame this happened right before I found a fab job.
You raise a very tricky question about the possible effect of the DDA !
IN EMPLOYMENT, the usual 'play-safe' rule is to discount DDA-related absence from deciding what's acceptable for non-disabled employees because this is a 'reasonable adjustment'
BUT I don't think it's quite so straightforward for applicants for employment. If you were rejected for the sole reason that you were disabled under DDA then that would be unquestionably unlawful but if you were rejected because the prospective employer thought they needed someone with a much more reliable attendance record than you were able to provide then this might be quite justifiable in all the circumstances (ie, not a 'reasonable adjustment' to have to discount your absence history - or at least that bit of it that related to DDA disability - it gets very complex !!). But it's arguable either way.
If you think your 35 days was a 'blip' one thing you might to is to ask your GP to write you a note explaining you have XT disability; that you recently had a lot of sickness absence as a result but in their opinion you are OK now and ought not to have excessive sickness absence over and above any non-DDA employees.
Worst thing you can do here is I think not explain anything to prospective employer.
I have a disability which is covered by the DDA. I have received a job offer which is subject to medical and references. I recently had six weeks off work due to my condition.
On the medical questionnaire it asked how many days have you been off sick in the last two years? Obviously I had to put 35 and I am sure my previous employer will also if they are asked the same question in a reference. 35 seems like a lot to me....I have never had this much time off before.
My question is can the new employer withdraw their offer when they see that I had 35 days off in the last two years? Is that considered an unsatisfactory reference? If so, is there anything I can do to preempt this?
Thank you in advance.

Peep Show
Updated: November 10, 2003, 2:58 PM ETBy By Jim Wilkie | NHL Insider
Anaheim Mighty Ducks: Mighty Ducks GM Bryan Murray acknowledges he has talked to the Oilers about restricted free agent center Mike Comrie. "Kevin (Lowe) told me he's not in a hurry," Murray told The Orange County Register about the Edmonton GM. The Maloof brothers, who own the NBA's Sacramento Kings, are reportedly in talks to buy the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim. Joe Maloof's statement about not commenting because of a confidentiality agreement pretty much affirms that the discussions are pretty serious. Edmonton Oilers: The Oilers would love to get defensive prospect Braydon Coburn, who is currently in junior hockey with the Portland Winter Hawks, from Atlanta in a deal for Comrie. But the Thrashers don't want to deal their 2003 first-round draft pick even though they are hurting at center.

Did Someone Post This To Confess A Murder ...
Photo via Reddit
Someone postes this on Post Secret. The thing is, noboyd reported it, but they tweeted it out.
Frank Warren, the head of PostSecret, has yet to contact the police about the posted secret, which might (very probably) be bogus. Still — what's the right thing to do with a possible murder confession? Discreetly bring it to authorities so they can investigate, or unleash it to the crack, never-ever wrong detectives of the Internet?
Reddit users starte tracking this down before things were yanked. I think it led to an area in Germantown. MD.

Former outfielder Clyburn killed
Second-round pick played in more than 800 MiLB games
By Danny Wild / MLB.com | February 7, 2012 9:58 AM ET
According to a report in The Herald, the 37-year-old Clyburn was shot around 2 a.m. on Tuesday after witnesses said he was arguing with another man. Police arrested Derrick Mcilwain, 36, of Lancaster, and charged him with murder and possession of a weapon during a violent crime, according to the newspaper.
It's unclear what provoked the shooting or how many times Clyburn was shot, although an autopsy was scheduled for late Tuesday. Police said Clyburn was found dead in the front yard of the home on Market Street.
Clyburn, who appeared in 805 Minor League games with the Pirates, Reds, Rays and Orioles from 1992-1999, spent parts of three season in the Majors before retiring in 2004. He was selected by Pittsburgh as an 18-year-old in 1992 and made his debut with the Bucs' Gulf Coast League affiliate that summer.
"He was a good son," Clyburn's father, Danny Clyburn Sr., told the newspaper. "He tried hard to stay on top, always tried. He worked hard in baseball."
His breakout season in the Minors came in 1994, when he hit .273 with 22 homers and 90 RBIs in 118 games for Class A Advanced Salem. He followed that with another big year in '95, finishing with a career-high 23 homers and 82 RBIs among three clubs after joining the Reds midseason.
Clyburn was ranked as the No. 4 Pirates prospect after the 1993 season and the No. 8 Bucs prospect after the '94 season, both rankings by Baseball America.
In the Minors, Clyburn made stops at Augusta, Salem, Frederick, High Desert, Bowie, Rochester and Durham.
The Lancaster native appeared in 41 Major League games over parts of three seasons, spending time with Baltimore from 1997-98 and 28 more games with the Tampa Bay Devil Rays in 1999.
His career ended in 2004 after playing three seasons with the independent Newark Bears.

Match Day 2 roundup
Queretaro 1, Leones Negros 0
Antonio Naelson's stoppage-time penalty kick lifted Queretaro (1-1-0) over Leones Negros 1-0 Friday at Estadio La Corregidora.
The Gallos Blancos put U de G on their heels early, with Yasser Corona's header off the post in the sixth minute, but could not find a goal from the run of play. Felix Araujo's late foul on Angel Sepulveda sent Sinha to the spot, where he banked a shot off the post and into the net in the third minute of stoppage.
Leones Negros fall to 1-0-1 and three points.
Veracruz 3, Puebla 1
Julio Furch headed home two short-range goals as table-topping Veracruz routed Puebla 3-1 Friday at Estadio Luis Pirata Fuentes.
Jesus Paganoni put the Tiburones Rojos on the board with a left-footer from distance in the 21st minute. Furch's first tally, off Daniel Villalba's rebound in the 53rd minute, provided the margin of victory after Herculez Gomez connected for La Franja in the 78th. The insurance tally came in the second minute of stoppage time.
Veracruz are unbeaten at 2-0-0 (6 pts). Puebla fall to 1-0-1 (3).
Tijuana 1, America 0
Tijuana edged Club America 1-0 Friday at Estadio Caliente.
Dayro Moreno scored the game's only goal, blasting the ball into the net from the top of the penalty area in the 41st minute, after a sharp set-up pass from Gabriel Hauche. Oribe Peralta had a golden chance to put the Aguilas back into the game, but missed a penalty kick in the 50th.
The teams combined for 34 shots overall, but were far from accurate. Xolos put four on goal to the Aguilas' three, and both goalkeepers finished with three saves.
The result leaves both teams at 1-0-1 and three points.
Cruz Azul 1, Santos Laguna 0
Cruz Azul nipped Santos Laguna 1-0 Saturday at Estadio Azul, on a 53rd-minute goal by Alemao.
The Brazilian poked the ball into the net from just outside the six-yard box, after snagging the rebound of a shot by Joao Rojas.
Santos Laguna appeared to draw first blood in the 42nd minute, but an apparent goal by Andres Renteria was called back for offside. It was the closest they came even to a shot on goal.
La Maquina are third on the table at 2-0-0 (6), while the Guerreros have yet to record a point (0-0-2).
Monterrey 1, Pachuca 0
Substitute Edwin Cardona scored in the 87th minute, allowing Monterrey to snatch a 1-0 win over Pachuca Saturday at Estadio Tecnologico.
The Rayados (1-0-1) outshot Pachuca 16-5, and the score might have been more lopsided if not for a five-save performance from Tuzos goalkeeper Oscar Perez.
Pachuca (0-2-2) are at the bottom of the table.
Tigres 1, Leon 0
Jose Rivas scored in the 68th minute to lift Tigres (1-0-1, 3 pts) over Leon 1-0 Saturday at Estadio Nou Camp.
Neither team put a shot on goal during the first half, but the pace picked up considerably after the intermission. Rivas clinched the win with a header from just off the far post after a corner kick.
Leon fall to 0-0-2.
Atlas 2,Morelia 1
Atlas rallied past Morelia 2-1 Saturday at Estadio Tres de Marzo.
Mauro Cejas got Monarcas off to a solid start in the 38th minute, stealing the ball from Enrique Perez and charging into the area before blasting a shot past netminder Federico Vilar. Walter Kanneman knotted the score in the 67th, using his head to help along a shot from youngster Ponchito Gonzalez, and Martin Barragan won the game with a 17-yard blast in the 83rd.
The undefeated Zorros (0-0-2) are in second place. Morelia fall to 0-1-1 (1).
Toluca 3, Chiapas 0
Toluca (1-1-0, 4 pts) romped past Jaguares 3-0 Sunday at Estadio Nemesio Diez.
Ricardo Ortiz paced the winners with two goals in six minutes (74, 80), but Carlos Esquivel's 25-yard free kick in the 38th minute sealed the win. Esquivel also collected the assist on Ortiz's first goal, with a quick cross from the right wing.
Netminder Oscar Jimenez made six saves as Chiapas (1-0-1, 3 pts) were outshot 25-9.
Chivas 2, Pumas 1
Chivas de Guadalajara ran up a two-goal first-half lead, and held on to edge Pumas 2-1 Sunday at Estadio Omnilife.
Marco Fabian opened the Chivas scoring from 20 yards in the 18th minute, and Angel Reyna made the score 2-0 in the 41st, leaping to head home a right-side cross. Eduardo Herrera saved Pumas from being shut out with an 84th-minute penalty kick.
Chivas improve to 1-0-1 and three points. Pumas remain winless at 0-1-1 (1).

I'm father to two girls you will undoubtedly hear too much about should we ever communicate, I'm VP of Tech Services at a local business computer systems firm in SE Michigan, and--thanks in no small part to OKC--I'm partnered with what a less secular man might describe as my soul mate, rachula (OKC name). I just marvel at the unlikeliness of it all while I bask in it.
I'm not really capable of being serious for long stretches of time and I'm likely to give in to ridiculous bouts of exuberance, physical affection, bad singing and rhythmically lurching around vaguely in time to music being played nearby or coming out of my stupid mouth; nevertheless, I make clear decisions, am responsible and duty bound to my family, friends and work (in that order).
I've been told I'm "always on", and I can't say I completely disagree.
I'm polyamorous, though in the summer of 2014 I'm too busy family-blending to prove it. Apparently I'm DGSD. *shrugs*
Want a sticker?
I have 51% custody of my two daughters, who live with me on alternating weeks. Make no mistake: my daughters are more important to me than me or you or anyone ever will be.
But there's never too much love, and I have plenty to give.
(I say that--and rachula would be first to agree and say the same--but right now, in late summer of 2014, we're so busy blending families that I'll be happy to chat but might need to take a rain-check on any recreational activities for now)
Showering people with exuberant affection
Playing piano after a fashion.
Playing dance games (like Dance Dance Revolution, In The Groove, etc... I know, geek!)
My job
I think I need to research this one a little better.
My favorite movie is The Blues Brothers, though I enjoy a good action comedy or well-done science fiction more than the average guy. I keep movies light; I don't usually want to leave a theatre depressed.
My favorite TV shows are Daily Show, Colbert Report, and a handful of cartoons I like to watch with my girls. I tend to listen to the radio more than I watch TV because I like to work around the house or play video games while listening to NPR, comedy streams and music streams.
My musical tastes include classical, jazz, blues, electric blues, synthpop, trance, funk, electronica, bluegrass.... I kinda like any genre except for "new" country, teen pop and hardcore hip-hop. My radio is usually tuned to Sirius XMU (Indie), Alt Nation (slightly more popular indie, from near as I can tell), Area (trance/house), or First Wave (80's stuff like Smiths, New Order, Talking Heads, etc).
Current bands that have my fancy are Hundred In the Hands, Passionpit, Fleet Foxes, British Sea Power, Black Keys, Tilly and the Wall, etc.
My biggest weakness is something electronic with a good beat and a good hook.
As for food, I like it spicy. Thai, Mexican and/or Italian are my favorites. I'm pretty excited to try new food, as long as someone in the know is there to vouch for the dish as being reasonably well prepared and edible.
My wife
My piano
My cat
My bicycle (spring-summer-fall only)
Humor and comedy theory.
Computer technology
Philosophy/morality/belief systems
Music and trying to make more of it
Why does OKCupid insists on showing me people who live in Canada? I know they might SEEM close as the crow flies, but I don't want to date someone I need a passport to visit.
1 - hanging out with my daughters
2 - hanging out with my step-sons
3 - hanging out with my partner
4 - playing video games while listening to NPR.
*peel, peel peel*
Do you like eating oranges? I like eating oranges.
"munch, munch, munch*
Actually... this orange wasn't all that great.
Do you like slicing apples?

jParse is a jQuery plugin for parsing XML that was fetched with the jQuery .ajax method. jParse is an easy-to-use and lightweight jQuery plugin which is compatible with:
Currently rated 5.0 by 1 people
Here is a quick jQuery Plugin Announcement:
String concatenation and formatting are common aspects of almost every development effort. However, the combination of single and double quotes, along with escape characters, text, and plus signs (+) can be a bit overwhelming and difficult to remember. The .NET Framework provides a much cleaner approach with the String class's Format method. It allows you to create string values by specifying insertion points for other values as well as special formatting.
String.Format("Hello {0}", "world");
The string formatting approach described above can now be used with Javascript using a jQuery Plugin: .NET STYLE STRING FORMATTING - a simple and clever function to support token replacement within a string.
Given a string like "Hello, {0}" and calling the format function with a single argument like "world".
Previously, I wrote about User Friendly, Readable Timestamp Formatting with CuteTime - jQuery Plugin. Plugin automatically, changes "2009-11-11 15:33" or "Thu, November 11,2009 15:33PM" type of timestamp formatting into a more user friendly, warmer and more readable time formatting like "2 minutes ago" or "4 days ago".
Another similar jQuery plugin for formatting timestamps is Timeago. Timeago makes user-friendly time formatting easier by supporting automatically updating fuzzy timestamps (e.g. "4 minutes ago" or "about 1 day ago")
We all love iPhone's user experience. Recently, I have posted about a iCal like jQuery Calendar Plugin which is built with CSS and jQuery featuring a lightweight Coda-like effect for event descriptions. Today, I would like to introduce you another jQuery plugin that simulates iPhone's scrolling experience.
Videobox is a small script that enables showing videos from YouTube, MetaCafe and Google Video on the page with an overlay. Unfortunately, this Lightbox for Videos is written for mootools library. In order to display flash on an overlay within the page, VideoBox isn't the option for jQuery Framework users. On the other hand, jQuery plugin Thickbox is nice but doesn't work with flash movies.
CeeBox creates a lightbox-like overlay for images, image, html via ajax and iframe, and flash movies. CeeBox is an easy-to-use plugin: videos will be displayed in a popup simply by adding "ceebox" to a link (for example: to a YouTube movie page link). CeeBox supports popups for Google Video, YouTube, Metacafe, Vimeo, Dailymotion, iFilm, and Facebook videos.

s parents we love to tell stories of how intelligent and aware our offspring are and of course bore everyone else with these tales; but sometimes you hear a story that cries out to be told to everyone and this is one of them. Told by a man about two children that were not his own.
He was devastated when his friend Jim died. He had died by his own hand and there was nothing Mark could have done to stop it. He wanted to know why, wanted answers to questions that his friend could no longer give him. He pondered on this until it nearly drove him mad.
He had known Jim's wife Maura for years before their marriage broke up then had met her again at the funeral. A funeral that he did not feel comfortable at as Jim and his family were atheists and the service was so very different from anything he had ever experienced. His friend's young children were there dressed impeccably. Their manner similar, their father was dead, gone forever and as they did not believe in any God or an afterlife then there was no more he could do for them or them for him. A few words of comfort were spoken by a man who had never met Jim, words which comforted no one; so when he had finished talking Mark took the stand and spoke about his friend whom he had loved, talked about the wonderful times they had together. Talked about all the things his friend had done to help others in his life but knowing he could not use the word God as Maura watched him intently. Mark was not very religious, never attended mass anymore but had been brought up in the Catholic Church and had always liked the ceremony around death. The wake he found beautiful as it gave the people a chance to say goodbye to their loved one. He had remembered his mother's. They had laid her out in her best dress, put rosary beads in her hands and she lay there in peace. The neighbours, friends and relations had come at all times of the day and night to tell stories of her life. He laughed at some of them as they saw his mother in a very different light than he had and told the stories as if he was just another adult not her child.
They had then carried her coffin from the house on the morning of her funeral, carried it all the way off the town land that she had lived in her entire life. From there it was taken to the local church where a man who knew her well talked about her. A priest that had seen her in the very same church most days of her life as she prayed for the pain of her friends that were alive and the souls of her friends that had passed on.
'Hope you are not expecting them all back to come to your funeral,' he had remarked one day when she got her self ready to go to yet another funeral.
She didn't answer just smiled that smile of contentment of one that was at peace with both herself and her God.
At her funeral he watched as every family in the community was represented by a least one member as they lined up and sympathised with him and his siblings. All such beautiful words of comfort for a woman they had admired and respected all their lives and even though he had not always seen eye to eye with her as she had a harsh streak that had impacted on his life, he was indeed comforted.
They then took her to the graveyard to be buried with his father. His father had been a good man but harsh too. He knew his parent's marriage had disintegrated at a time when society didn't see women as much more than the child bearer and rearer which left a lot of women frustrated.
After they left the graveyard they headed to the local hall where women had made tea and sandwiches for the family, friends and neighbours. As he had smoked outside later he felt happy with how she was sent off to the next world.
Jim's funeral was so different. It was in a hall. He didn't get a chance to speak to anyone there as everything seemed so disjointed or was it because he liked the ritual of his religion which he didn't practice. A religion that followed the belief that the soul stayed with the body for three days after the death and so the family and friends must stay with the body, a religion that believed that the soul then stayed in the community for a month so therefore they needed to remind everyone that the soul was about to depart the community and therefore they had another ceremony - a mass.
A few weeks after Jim's funeral Mark woke one morning feeling bereft and he had a burning desire to talk to someone about his friend's life.
He jumped out of bed and straight to the laptop to book a flight to visit Scotland.
He arrived in Glasgow on a wet wintery morning and was met by Jim's wife in her Mercedes sports car. A convertible which probably never got the chance to be converted he thought as they drove through the streets to her home in the suburbs. He wanted to talk openly about Jim; he needed closure on his friend's life, closure that he hadn't got at his funeral. He had told Maura the story of his mother's funeral as they sped to her house. She wasn't interested as she hated all religions but she was a nice pleasant woman and listened to him.
'You know my parents didn't have a happy marriage.' He had continued. 'I visited my father's grave for twenty years before my mother was buried with him. I always felt his presence there so I went often to be with him.' Maura didn't answer but he continued for his own sake not hers. 'Then when my mother died I went to their grave and there was nothing there, neither his nor her energy. It was as if he had waited on her all that time and she had then left with him!' Maura took her eyes of the road for a moment and looked at him as if to say. Don't talk such nonsense.
She was not expecting Jim to be waiting for her anywhere. They drove in through the electric gates to the mansion she lived in. Jim and Maura had made a lot of money in property and the fruits of life they believed ended in this one.
She showed him around the beautiful house right up to the attic to where the children had the biggest toy room he had ever seen with every toy any child could ask for.
Later, after they had talked for hours about Jim, he went with her to pick the children up from school, then they all had tea together. As he finished the eldest child, a six year old boy asked, 'Would you like to see our toy room?' in the most commanding tone he had ever heard in a child.
He looked at him and then his sister who had joined her brother beside his chair.
'I would love to,' he had replied.
The mother said nothing as he was led out into the huge hallway and up the magnificent stairs to the first floor. Half way up the third flight of stairs to the attic they both turned at the same time and faced him. They were a few steps ahead so therefore met him at eye level.
He stopped and for a moment there was silence. Then the little boy asked, 'Where is our father?' He was shocked, not only with the question but with the unquestioning belief they both had that he had the answer.
'He is in heaven,' he replied without thinking of the consequences as to what would happen if they told their mother.
'Is he with God?' the little girl then asked.
'Yes,' he replied, 'God is looking after him and you can talk to him anytime you like.' The boy turned and looked at his sister, she held his gaze for a moment and he nodded then said, 'Please don't tell our mother what we asked�. And we shall never tell her what you have just told us�. Now let us show you our playroom.' The playroom was shown, he told us, and I looked at everything as though I had never seen it before and then we returned to the sitting room. I left shortly after knowing that I had gotten what I had come for and, I think, so had Jim's children.
He stopped for a moment, looked at us then said�.. I have often wondered who was it that directed me there!

Approximately 80,000 Romanian nationals leave the country annually to work abroad, the equivalent of 24 communes' population, most of them being from the rural environment, on Thursday said the representatives of Romanian Business Leaders (RBL), at the "Romania, a better place for entrepreneurs" reunion.
Photo credit: (c) Simion MECHNO / AGERPRES archive
"In order to solve the matter of rural Romanians' exodus we should solve the problems of the Romanian village. Agriculture is the most important activity field in the rural area, and yet in this sector a lot of problems were only solved after we were admitted to the European Union, in 2007. We need to train specialists to work in agriculture. We have the financial resources for this. Should things will go well also from the legislative point of view, then we'll have in agriculture the development we all wish for. The more developed agriculture will be, the fewer Romanians will leave their households to work abroad," on Thursday said Daniel Constantin, former Agriculture Minister, at the RBL reunion.
According to the RBL data, currently we count for 2.5 million Romanian migrants already working abroad.
"If we consider that the average number of employees in Romania is of 5 millions, it means we have a 2 to 1 ratio between the domestic workforce in Romania and the one working abroad and contributes to the GDP of those countries. The central bank (BNR) has recently finalized an analysis that studied the impact in Romania's GDP of the 2.5 million migrants if they worked in the country, in their specialty. The plus to the GDP of Romania would have been of 50 billion lei," the RBL representatives say.
Of the ones who take off, 80pct are from the rural areas. We currently count for 2.7 million households which have had 5 million hectares, meaning 34pct of the total farmland of Romania. Unfortunately, these areas are pretty spread.
The bigger problem is that Romania's land has no cadaster and no immediate perspective to complete it soon, pointed out Daniel Constantin.AGERPRES(RO — author: Carmen Marinescu, editor: Oana Tilica; EN — author: Maria Voican, editor: Razvan-Adrian Pandea)

DHARMSALA, India (AP) The Dalai Lama celebrated his 75th birthday Tuesday with hundreds of cheering followers in this northern Indian town where he has been living in exile since he fled Chinese rule in Tibet in 1959.
Looking at posters depicting his life as a child, a young man and a spiritual leader, the man who has come to symbolize Tibet's struggle against China said: "I remember my past and I feel that I haven't wasted these years."
"Even at this age, I find time for my Buddhist studies that give me strength, peace, happiness and keep me in good health," he said.
In neighboring Nepal, police detained at least 22 Tibetan exiles on their way to a celebration for the Dalai Lama, according to an Associated Press reporter who was at the police station in Katmandu.
Katmandu Police Chief Ramesh Kharel said the Tibetans were taken in for questioning and would be released.
Laxmi Prasad Dhakal, a government official in Katmandu, said Nepal will not tolerate protests against 'friendly nations,' including China, though the exiles will be allowed to hold low-key celebrations inside monasteries and refugee camps.
In Beijing, Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang at a regular news conference Tuesday remarked about the date: "I only remember two dates: March 8, 1951 and May 23, 1959, the liberation of the Tibetan serfs."
In Dharmsala, young artists beat drums and played bagpipes and flutes as the Dalai Lama arrived at his temple to meet his followers.
The Tibetan prime minister-in-exile, Samdhong Rinpoche, raised the Tibetan flag as the musicians played the Tibetan anthem.
The Dalai Lama received gifts and traditional white scarves from his followers, sat through a cultural program of songs and dances and watched an exhibition of Tibetan miniature paintings called "Thangka."

By Jack L. Cooke

My sister Laurine (Cooke) McIntosh will celebrated her 85th birthday Oct. 10.

Laurine was the oldest of my three sisters Laurine, Pearl and Jean. She was born one year and one week before me but was already 15 going on 16. At a very tender age, she was put in charge to keep us safe from all elements, whatever they may be. Probably more important was she kept us safe one from the other. Growing up in a large family, there will always be a pecking order; thus, while in the stages of growing up it is best not to forget it.

Fate led the way as she was born right-handed and I was born left. Thus, we each wanted to go our own way. My way was always a shortest route to entertainment and fun, and Pearl and Jean were easily convinced to follow me. Laurine, though, held back and, although only six or eight years old, she offered clear-headed sound advice much like any adult.

Make no mistake, she was the one in charge and she made sure we knew it. Without a doubt Jean, the youngest, was the apple of her daddy's eyes but it was Laurine who was born to lead. Sister Pearl and I joined hands together and very early in life we learned to barter. Still, the threat was very real:

"Just wait till your dad gets home"!

"Wait till your Pa comes home!" Oh, dear!

What a dreadful threat for a boy to hear.

Yet never a boy of three or four

But has heard it a thousand times or more.

"Wait till your Pa comes home, my lad,

and see what you'll get for being bad."

(Edgar Guest)

All too soon, the years have flown by and now, in my late years, a certain amount of wisdom has arrived. I know now it was a blessing to have had a big sister to watch over me and two younger sisters to be winsome and thoughtful in the ways only sisters can be. I am sure it made for a gentler…..me.

It is said having sisters makes you a more thoughtful and kinder person; my sisters are still working on "my case" but I like to believe, in time, it will all come true.

Happy 85th birthday Laurine; keep up the good work.

Jack L. Cooke is the author of A Walk Down Memory Lane and Getting By in a Silent World. He lives in London.

I nominate Patricia Black, Department of Treasury for FISSEA's Educator of the Year for 2002.
Background: In the Summer, 2001, Patricia "Patty" Black, Department of Treasury formed a Federal working group to focus on promoting computer security awareness training federal-wide. By using the basis of a training CD currently being utilized by the Department of Treasury and Defense Information Systems Agency, the groups focus was to produce a "generic" training tool to focus on basic information security key issues "at the user level" such as risk management, contingency planning, perimeter security and policy and planning. The training tool is graphical, web-based and is in compliance with accessibility and Section 508 requirements.
Sponsors: Committee on National Security Systems (CNSS), Education Training and Awareness (ETA) and Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA). As a caveat, FISSEA has reviewed the product to ensure that it complies with computer security training requirements mandated by Federal law.
The Point of Contact Links portion of the product will provide links to the FISSEA and NIST Forum URLs on the NIST site.
How it will benefit the Federal Government?
The tool will allow Federal agencies to train employees and contractors at the awareness level on the basics of information security. Since it can be utilized as a graphical web-based tool, once deployed by the agency it can be utilized not only on-site, but remotely as well. In addition, it has a built-in tracking capability that will allow agencies to "track" that employees have satisfied training requirements outlined in the Computer Security Act, 1987, A-130 and GISRA.
When will it be available?
The tool was "unveiled" at the FISSEA conference in March 2002 and is "free" of charge for any Federal government agency to utilize to its full capacity.
Congratulations Patricia Black!
