Remove use of PageSetTLI() from all page manipulation functions and adjust README to indicate change in the way we make changes to pages. Repurpose those bytes into the pd_checksum field and explain how that works in comments about page header. Refactoring ahead of actual feature patch which would make use of the checksum field, arriving later. Jeff Davis, with comments and doc changes by Simon Riggs Direction suggested by Robert Haas; many others providing review comments. http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/bb7cc2623f242ffafae404f8ebbb331b9a7f2b68 - Add pageinspect--1.1.sql for checksum changes http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/ef04cb745fc3167264f369a2710f237de4db0bf4 - Add pageinspect--1.0--1.sql for checksum changes http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/e016b72411caa7027f9c980fb2c0560cdab2a129 - Add reliability docs about storage/memory corruptions. Add section to the Reliability section about what is and is not protected for various file types. Further edits welcome. Designed to allow 1-2 line change when/if checksums are committed. Inspired by docs written by Jeff Davis, though completely different from his patch. http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/2266db392cb825eccb39518e7b652e7f336fff6c - Correction that 2pc state files use CRC-32. Jeff Davis http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/8c3b87ca10a54daf06e41986d763e12538c06ab9 - Clarify assumption of filesystem metadata integrity. Jeff Davis http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/1a091002cfa2180a908b36d56c58749a175b4be7 - Change commit_delay to be SUSET for 9.3+. Prior to 9.3 the commit_delay affected only the current user, whereas now only the group leader waits while holding the WALWriteLock. Deliberate or accidental settings to a poor value could seriously degrade performance for all users. Privileges may be delegated by SECURITY DEFINER functions for anyone that needs per-user settings in real situations. Request for change from Peter Geoghegan http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/13fe298ca06f5390df5edf073cf401f9f0b67458 - Allow I/O reliability checks using 16-bit checksums. Checksums are set immediately prior to flush out of shared buffers and checked when pages are read in again. Hint bit setting will require full page write when block is dirtied, which causes various infrastructure changes. Extensive comments, docs and README. WARNING message thrown if checksum fails on non-all zeroes page; ERROR thrown but can be disabled with ignore_checksum_failure = on. Feature enabled by an initdb option, since transition from option off to option on is long and complex and has not yet been implemented. Default is not to use checksums. Checksum used is WAL CRC-32 truncated to 16-bits. Simon Riggs, Jeff Davis, Greg Smith Wide input and assistance from many community members. Thank you. http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/96ef3b8ff1cf1950e897fd2f766d4bd9ef0d5d56 - Add new README file for pages/checksums http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/9df56f6d91c3d67b23925b8f8b70365636995b71 Tom Lane pushed: - Improve documentation of EXTRACT(WEEK). The docs showed that early-January dates can be considered part of the previous year for week-counting purposes, but failed to say explicitly that late-December dates can also be considered part of the next year. Fix that, and add a cross-reference to the "isoyear" field. Per bug #7967 from Pawel Kobylak. http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/e39feb1006ac5c64fd804597088bc7f40ff7b635 - Bump up timeout delays some more in timeouts isolation test. The buildfarm members using -DCLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS still don't like this test. Some experimentation shows that on my machine, isolationtester's query to check for "waiting" state takes 2 to 2.5 seconds to bind+execute under -DCLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS. Set the timeouts to 5 seconds to leave some headroom for possibly-slower buildfarm critters. Really we ought to fix the "waiting" query, which is not only horridly slow but outright wrong in detail; and then maybe we can back off these timeouts. But right now I'm just trying to get the buildfarm green again. http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/a7921f71a3c747141344d8604f6a6d7b4cddb2a9 - Redo postgres_fdw's planner code so it can handle parameterized paths. I wasn't going to ship this without having at least some example of how to do that. This version isn't terribly bright; in particular it won't consider any combinations of multiple join clauses. Given the cost of executing a remote EXPLAIN, I'm not sure we want to be very aggressive about doing that, anyway. In support of this, refactor generate_implied_equalities_for_indexcol so that it can be used to extract equivalence clauses that aren't necessarily tied to an index. http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/9cbc4b80ddc10b36c64514104caa69747c386dcf - Avoid retrieving dummy NULL columns in postgres_fdw. This should provide some marginal overall savings, since it surely takes many more cycles for the remote server to deal with the NULL columns than it takes for postgres_fdw not to emit them. But really the reason is to keep the emitted queries from looking quite so silly ... http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/e690b9515072fd7767fdeca5c54166f6a77733bc - Update commit_delay documentation. Commit 13fe298ca06f5390df5edf073cf401f9f0b67458 changed this GUC to be PGC_SUSET, but neglected to update the documentation to match. While at it, edit and rearrange the text a little for clarity. http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/82b945c0979350c87ddc52adefe9f0a36dd5b4c8 - Suppress uninitialized-variable warning in new checksum code. Some compilers understand that this coding is safe, and some don't. http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/4912385b56afe68ef76e47d38df1d61ada0fde2f - Fix contrib/dblink to handle inconsistent DateStyle/IntervalStyle safely. If the remote database's settings of these GUCs are different from ours, ambiguous datetime values may be read incorrectly. To fix, temporarily adopt the remote server's settings while we ingest a query result. This is not a complete fix, since it doesn't do anything about ambiguous values in commands sent to the remote server; but there seems little we can do about that end of it given dblink's entirely textual API for transmitted commands. Back-patch to 9.2. The hazard exists in all versions, but this patch would need more work to apply before 9.2. Given the lack of field complaints about this issue, it doesn't seem worth the effort at present. Daniel Farina and Tom Lane http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/8a3b6772aedbd95557ab1fc489ddf007ac9d405d - Document cross-version compatibility issues for contrib/postgres_fdw. One of the use-cases for postgres_fdw is extracting data from older PG servers, so cross-version compatibility is important. Document what we can do here, and further annotate some of the coding choices that create compatibility constraints. In passing, remove one unnecessary incompatibility with old servers, namely assuming that we didn't need to quote the timezone name 'UTC'. http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/5b86fedfb57ea943f883a13c6d50c5a9e2a1cc57 - Don't put <indexterm> before <term> in <varlistentry> items. Doing that results in a broken index entry in PDF output. We had only a few like that, which is probably why nobody noticed before. Standardize on putting the <term> first. Josh Kupershmidt http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/cdc67938c086104ef7a0e2f1e6912e9ee0ba4c85 - Update time zone abbreviation lists for changes missed since 2006. Most (all?) of Russia has moved to what's effectively year-round daylight savings time, so that the "standard" zone names now mean an hour later than they used to. Update that, notably changing MSK as per recent complaint from Sergey Konoplev, but also CHOT, GET, IRKT, KGT, KRAT, MAGT, NOVT, OMST, VLAT, YAKT, YEKT. The corresponding DST abbreviations are presumably now obsolete, but I left them in place with their old definitions, just to reduce any possible breakage from this change. Also add VOLT (Europe/Volgograd), which for some reason we never had before, as well as MIST (Antarctica/Macquarie), and fix obsolete definitions of MAWT, TKT, and WST. http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/3b91fe185a71c05ac4528f93a39ba27232acc9e0 - Semi-automatically detect changes in timezone abbreviations. Add an option to zic.c to dump out all non-obsolete timezone abbreviations defined in the Olson database. Comparing this list to its previous state will clue us in when something happens that we may need to account for in the tznames/ time zone abbreviation lists. The README file's previous exhortation to "just grep for differences" was completely useless advice, in my now-considerable experience; but maybe this will be a bit more useful. As a starting point I built the same list from the tzdata files as they existed in 2006, which is committed here as known_abbrevs.txt. Comparison indeed turned up quite a few changes we had neglected to account for, which I will commit separately. http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/69602772700e62b7b03e3f0ac7b10aa651c0c998 - Fix some unportable constructs in parallel pg_dump code. Didn't compile on semi-obsolete gcc, and probably not on not-gcc-at-all either. http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/846681fdd574548d4f430f2ff7ab44d77b4c79fe Kevin Grittner pushed: - Use ORDER BY on matview definitions were needed for stable plans. Per report from Hadi Moshayedi of matview regression test failure with optimization of aggregates. A few ORDER BY clauses improve code coverage for matviews while solving that problem. http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/241139ae4baf6264c3c2cd053a547833c6e49a59 - Eliminate trivial whitespace inconsistency in docs sample code. http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/08af1a0a2ae8fbbd9949d9fa0f7583f6c09cf4ec - Fix problems with incomplete attempt to prohibit OIDS with MVs. Problem with assertion failure in restoring from pg_dump output reported by Joachim Wieland. Review and suggestions by Tom Lane and Robert Haas. http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/549dae0352a06a43ec664dc158556e12ec2d30e5 Alvaro Herrera pushed: - Allow extracting machine-readable object identity Introduce pg_identify_object(oid,oid,int4), which is similar in spirit to pg_describe_object but instead produces a row of machine-readable information to uniquely identify the given object, without resorting to OIDs or other internal representation. This is intended to be used in the event trigger implementation, to report objects being operated on; but it has usefulness of its own. Catalog version bumped because of the new function. http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/f8348ea32ec8d713cd6e5d5e16f15edef22c4d03 Heikki Linnakangas pushed: - Fix "element <@ range" cost estimation. The statistics-based cost estimation patch for range types broke that, by incorrectly assuming that the left operand of all range oeprators is a range. That lead to a "type x is not a range type" error. Because it took so long for anyone to notice, add a regression test for that case. We still don't do proper statistics-based cost estimation for that, so you just get a default constant estimate. We should look into implementing that, but this patch at least fixes the regression. Spotted by Tom Lane, when testing query from Josh Berkus. http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/f897c4744fea221dfc7bbd277081edad41d1d58d Andrew Dunstan pushed: - Silence compiler warnings about unused values. Per gripe from Kevin Grittner. http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/e4a05c7512b23c8f48c186e685f2ef186374a20a - Avoid renaming data directory during MSVC upgrade testing. This appears to cause some intermittent file system problems on Windows 8. Instead, set up the old data directory in its intended final location to start with. http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/b7f8465cc6c95da5b1af1de19bc7b7b1b2621276 - Add parallel pg_dump option. New infrastructure is added which creates a set number of workers (threads on Windows, forked processes on Unix). Jobs are then handed out to these workers by the master process as needed. pg_restore is adjusted to use this new infrastructure in place of the old setup which created a new worker for each step on the fly. Parallel dumps acquire a snapshot clone in order to stay consistent, if available. The parallel option is selected by the -j / --jobs command line parameter of pg_dump. Joachim Wieland, lightly editorialized by Andrew Dunstan. http://git.postgresql.org/pg/commitdiff/9e257a181cc1dc5e19eb5d770ce09cc98f470f5f == Rejected Patches (for now) == No one was disappointed this week :-) == Pending Patches == Robins Tharakan sent in three more revisions of a patch to add regression tests for SCHEMA-related commands. Pavel Stehule and Hadi Moshayedi traded patches to optimize avg() and friends on NUMERIC. Hadi Moshayedi sent in a patch to add infrastructure which helps the above optimization, namely an aggtransspace parameter used in creating aggregate functions which approximates the size of the aggregate function's internal transition (a.k.a. state) data. Steve Singer and Bruce Momjian traded patches to fix an infelicity in the handling of wrong PGSERVICE entries. Nicholas White sent in four more revisions of a patch to add the ability to ignore NULLs in windowing functions per the SQL standard. Michael Paquier sent in three revisions of a patch to ensure that pg_dump only dumps valid indexes. Zoltan Boszormenyi sent in another revision of a patch to fix an infelicity in lock_timeout on Windows. Ants Aasma sent in three revisions of a patch to implement slice-by-8 checksums on x86_64 CPUs. KaiGai Kohei sent in another revision of a patch to implement OAT_POST_ALTER object access hooks. Robins Tharakan sent in a patch to increase the regression tests' coverage of the ROLE code. KaiGai Kohei sent in another revision of a patch to implement row-level access control. Daniele Varazzo sent in some patches to fix strings for error messages in git master. Alvaro Herrera sent in another revision of the dropped_objects patch vs. event triggers. Brendan Jurd sent in a patch to disallow 0-dimensional arrays. Andrew Dunstan sent in another revision of a patch to fix some hstore compiler warnings. Alvaro Herrera sent in another revision of a patch to ensure that autovacuum sets priority on vacuums intended to prevent XID wraparound. Michael Paquier sent in two revisions of a patch to ensure that custom bgworkers receive SIGHUP if the postmaster is notified. Alexander Korotkov sent in another revision of a patch to make certain (DFA) regexep searches indexable. Kevin Grittner sent in a patch intended to correct certain situations where pg_dump produced different results on subsequent runs from the first after a reload. Adriano Lange sent in a patch to add a new optimizer, Sampling and Dynamic Programming (SDP), to PostgreSQL. Michael Paquier sent in another revision of a patch to implement REINDEX CONCURRENTLY. Xi Wang sent in a patch to avoid a buffer underflow in errfinish(). Michael Paquier sent in another revision of a patch to overhaul recovery.conf.

- marriage (literal or metaphorical) to a bureaucracy
- The ancient mammalian unit of mother and child has morphed into a "bureaugamy," as single mothers find government assistance a more satisfying partner than a confused male.
- If bureaugamy is the marriage of citizen to the bureaucratic state, then what we really have is an arranged marriage shotgun wedding.
- In 1999 Lionel Tiger coined the word 'bureaugamy' to refer to the relationship between officially impoverished mothers of illegitimate children and the government.

Herbs for High Blood Pressure
There are
two different types of high blood pressure.The primary type is
considered to have no known cause, although lifestyle issues are
probably at fault.This kind of hypertension responds to exercise,weight
reduction,eating more vegetables,and lowering the stress levels.
Secondary hypertension is believed to spring from another condition
such as kidney disease.
It is
usually treated on an individual basis.High blood pressure is a
widespread problem.It's been said that everybody will get it sooner or
later if they live long enough.Because it is so prevalent,there are
many herbs for high blood pressure on the market.If you are shopping
for a blend of herbs for high blood pressure,you are likely to find
some of the following herbs included.
Cayenne and Garlic:Cayenne
(also called capsicum) works to clean the blood.It removes cholesterol
from the blood while lowering blood pressure. It is helpful for the
heart, stomach, and circulatory system.Garlic is usually taken along
with the cayenne. Some people have had great results buying cayenne
powder and garlic powder in bulk and filling their own gel caps. This
is one way to save a bit of money. Cayenne and garlic have become a
common folk remedy for high blood pressure and high cholesterol over
the past 30 years or so in America.
Ancient Asian Miracle Herbs:Many
of the centuries old Asian herbs that are all-over energizers and
tonics are recommended for high blood pressure. For instance, Siberian
ginseng and panax ginseng have been used for lowering blood
pressure.Gotu kola and ashwagandha have both been considered helpful
for high blood pressure.
Ginger has
been used in Asia for thousands of years and for many different
illnesses.In addition to being soothing to an upset stomach or motion
sickness, it has ben found to relax blood vessels and stimulate the
circulation, which means it is probably helpful for the blood pressure,
is a powerful herb for high blood pressure.It reportedly has the side
effect of nasal congestion.It is an herb from India that is sometimes
called Indian snakeroot. It's been used for centuries for its calming
qualities, and since the 1940's for it's effect in lowering blood
pressure.Maitake mushroom is a Japanese herb that has been used for
centuries to increase strength and good health.In experiments with
rats, maitake mushroom was found to reduce blood pressure.
Traditional American Herbs:Among
the American herbs, hawthorn berry is one of the best herbs for high
blood pressure and the heart. If you are overweight, hawthorn berry
will help your heart stand up to the challenge, by toning it and
reconditioning it.
lowers blood pressure by dilating the blood vessels of the heart. Black
cohosh is usually thought of as an herb for treating menopause
symptoms, but it has been proven to lower blood pressure.
surprise among the herbs for high blood pressure is also a tonic for
the circulatory system and for the heart. In addition, golden seal
contains an alkaloid called hydrastine which is believed to reduce
blood pressure. Parsley is one of the best diuretic herbs for high
blood pressure.
Try Adding Celery to Your Diet!Celery
is a food vegetable, but it must be included among herbs for high blood
pressure. It dilates blood vessels, which helps to prevent
hypertension. Celery is a natural source of sodium, but not everyone
with high blood pressure is sensitive to sodium. In one study, a man's
blood pressure dropped substantially when he ate 4 ounces of celery
every day.
Stress Relieving Herbs:Hypertension,
or high blood pressure, is often associated with stress and nervous
tension. For this reason, many of the herbs that are traditionally used
to calm the nerves are included among herbs for high blood pressure.
instance, Valerian root is a calmative that appears to have the effect
of lowering blood pressure as well as relieving insomnia. Passion
flower is a relaxing herb which improves circulation and helps coronary
disorders. Scullcap was found to normalize the blood pressure in one
study. It is usually used to relax the nerves. It helps relieve
headaches, too.

WeightingFunction and Showing Graphs with wieghts as Edge Lable
I couldn't find this in documentation Mathematica 6.
First Question: I construct a graph with edge weights selected from a
given list say, {2,3,5,7}. In the documentaion says:
SetEdgeWeights[g, e, w]=assigns the weights in the weight list w to
the edges in edge list \e. Here's one example
In[1]=t = Wheel[8];k = SetEdgeWeights[t, WeightingFunction ->
RandomInteger, WeightRange -> {0, 4}]
In[2]=Edges[k, EdgeWeight]
But this is not clearly what I want. I want to weights to be selected
from {2,3,5,7}.
Question 2: In the other part of the documentation says:
WeightingFunction can take values Random, RandomInteger, Euclidean, or
LNorm[n] for nonnegative n, or any pure function that takes two
arguments, each argument having the form {Integer,{Number,Number}}.
How can I construct one weightingFunction? Can anyone make one?
I don't know why the first argument of the first argument show be an
integer! Let's say the vertices of a given graph are labled {1,...n}.
How can we set weights of the edges to be the average of the vertices
incident on the edges!
Question 3. How can I graph a weighted Graph show the edgeweights show
up on the graph? for instance for this graph?
In[1]=t = Wheel[8];k = SetEdgeWeights[t, WeightingFunction ->
RandomInteger, WeightRange -> {0, 4}]
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

New DC Comics Adaptation? CW Nearing A 'Green Arrow' Pilot
With a decade in "Smallville" now behind it, The CW once more trudges up the hill to bring down a pail of water from the DC Comics well.
And this one isn't necessarily even without traces from the bygone "Superman"-origin hit.
A pilot obviously doesn't guarantee anything going any further than a one-off viewing, but executives and producers have reportedly inched toward an accord bringing forth a "Green Arrow" series tryout, according to Entertainment Weekly. "Smallville" faithful will remember that Justin Hartley clocked in more than 70 episodes portraying the "Emerald Archer" starting with what was originally just a 2006 guest appearance. The story is, producers wrote in the Green Arrow of all characters from Clark Kent/Superman's future Justice League chums because the network couldn't secure first-choice character Batman's adaptation rights.
Those rights in question limited the Caped Crusader's live-action appearances to big-screen turns only.
The proposed project's team includes executive producers/writers Greg Berlanti ("Brothers & Sisters") and Marc Guggenheim ("FlashForward"), who both also worked this past summer on a DC project that won't be remembered nearly as fondly as "Smallville" - the critically drubbed "Green Lantern" movie starring Ryan Reynolds; and "Green Arrow" comic veteran Andrew Kreisberg, who's also worked on The CW's "The Vampire Diaries" and FOX's "Fringe."
Who isn't currently on-board? Well, Hartley. The titular role remains, as yet, uncast.
The Green Arrow's origins stretch clear back to 1941 - and he wasn't even 100-percent a comic book original like Spider-Man or Batman. In fact, he was loosely inspired by a film called "The Green Archer, " itself an interpretation of an Edgar Wallace novel. Like Bruce Wayne/Batman, he's a wealthy billionaire by day (in the Arrow's case, former Star City Mayor Oliver Queen) and a vigilante by night. Queen dresses up like a souped-up Robin Hood and employs a bow and numerous trick arrows to not only fight crime, but to combat what he also sees as the injustices perpetrated by the rich against the poor and middle class.
Well, give The CW this: with the "Occupy" movement having captured so many imaginations and with so much backlash against America's wealthy and its financial institutions, perhaps this is a series whose time has indeed come.

By Malia Zimmerman | Hawaii Reporter
HONOLULU — Former Hawaii Campaign Spending Director Robert Watada is accusing Honolulu mayoral candidate Kirk Caldwell of participating in a "pay to play" scheme after reviewing dozens of donations Caldwell's campaign accepted from government rail contractors and employees of the city's rail authority.
"This is a clear message: 'Make a fat donation, and you will be first in line to get government contracts.' The idea was practiced in New Jersey politics and Chicago politics for years. Caldwell's mainland advisers are using the same tactics: Unions to take the low road, and the candidate takes the high road and hopes to pay off his donors," Watada said.
Ben Cayetano, Caldwell's opponent, has a "truth squad," which unveiled a list of 121 contractors and individuals tied to the controversial rail project that have donated to Caldwell. Some gave the maximum of $4,000, which contributed to Caldwell raising more than $1.3 million.

Is the Puppy Bowl Pro-Pit Bull? Animal Planet Packs Lineup With Adorable "Bullies"
Cash, a 15-week-old pit bull who "loves belly rubs."
Animal Planet/Keith Barraclough
With shows like Pit Boss and Pit Bulls and Parolees as part of their programming, Animal Planet has done more than a little to showcase the work of pit bull rescuers and change misconceptions about the breed. And in their latest effort to promote these pups, the cable channel has packed their annual ode to cuteness -- the Puppy Bowl -- with mini versions of the much-maligned pooches.
This year's utterly adorable starting lineup features two purebred pit bulls and four pit bull mixes out of a total of 31 pups. With those kind of numbers, they're definitely making a statement.

Four Pets More Dangerous Than Pit Bulls
But were the bowl to take place in Miami, these six fluffy balls of fur wouldn't be allowed, thanks to Dade County's 20-plus-year ban on pit bulls. Efforts to overturn the legislation failed in a ballot measure last year. Meanwhile, Miami-Dade is the only county in Florida with an active ban, and cities like Cincinnati have recently voted to overturn similar BSL.
There's no doubt that Animal Planet is one of the major players when it comes to changing public opinion about these pups.
Shorty Rossi, star of Pit Boss (a show about a group of little people in the entertainment industry who rescue and rehabilitate pit bulls) was actually in the 305 last year to help stump for the breed. He's stoked that his network is doing so much to support bullies. "They've done a tremendous job," Rossi says.
Rossi has five pit bulls of his own, including his certified service dog, Hercules. He believes that Animal Planet and shows like his have made a huge impact when it comes to raising awareness.
"When I used to travel with Hercules it would be like parting the red sea at LAX. Now it's like, I tell people, if you pet him one more time or get one more picture we're gonna miss our flight! In the airports, the supermarkets that we travel we get people saying, 'Because of you we know how a pit bull really is, because of you and your show we don't believe the hype.'"
Cultist reached out to the nation's largest pro-BSL organization, DogsBite.org, for comment on the issue, but didn't receive a response.

10-week old pit bull/German Shepard mix Eli plays with 4-month-old Catahoula/Boston Terrier mix Koda
"It takes time to change people, no matter who you are. Some faster than others. I'm able to bring Hercules anywhere so people get to see, in an airport, a nice hotel, a supermarket, what a pit bull really is," Rossi adds. He attributes much of this change in public opinion to shows like his and the efforts of Animal Planet and others involved in breed awareness efforts.
Did we also mention that all the pups in the Puppy Bowl are rescues, available for adoption? Animal Planet is definitely on the side of the underdog.
And in response to those who continue to claim that pit bulls are dangerous, Rossi says that's nonsense. "Most of those people that have that opinion have never owned a pit bull, have never been around a pit bill, have never been victimized by a pit bull or know anyone who ever has. They have an uneducated, unpopular opinion of what they think is happening. Do your research before you make a judgement of a topic. Because of the shows on Animal Planet, because I traveled to over 40 cities doing breed awareness last year, I'm bring attention and awareness to what really is going on."
This year's Pit Boss season finale showcases the team's efforts in Miami, and it airs on March 30 at 9 p.m. on Animal Planet. In the meantime, Puppy Bowl fans can watch the epic showdown this Sunday starting at 3 p.m. Our money's on little Cash.

Bank Stocks Have Further to Fall, Say the Charts
Bank stocks are helping lead the market higher once again today, as the tradebots continue to toy with them. But they're not out of the woods yet, according to a bit of technical analysis today.
Financial stocks are among the biggest gainers in the S&P 500 today, with the sector up 1.9%. Regions Financial, Fifth Third Bancorp and J.P. Morgan are among the hottest individual names in the S&P. And the House of Dimon and Bank of America are also among the top gainers in the Dow.
But Strategas Research Partners technical analyst Chris Verrone notes that, while banks — in this case, the KBW Bank index — have bounced from their lows last week, they have not bounced back nearly as vigorously as the S&P 500.
This relative weakness suggests, Mr. Verrone says, that "this looks like an oversold bounce, and nothing more."

Kentucky's KIRIS Gets New Life as 'CATS'
Conservatives fear that only the name will change
Conservatives are skeptical. "Clearly, they want to cash in on the passionate public support for our beloved state basketball team," says Kentucky Eagle Forum's Donna Shedd. "It was amazingly, yet unashamedly claimed during legislative committee debate that the problem with KIRIS was simply public relations. Yet there has been a tremendous public outcry for the test's demise."
In 1990, the Kentucky legislature passed the Kentucky Education Reform Act (KERA) in response to a court order to overhaul the state's failing public school system. The centerpiece of the reform measure was KIRIS, the first assessment test of its kind in the country. According to State Sen. Gex (pronounced Jay) Williams, it was developed behind closed doors by education bureaucrats and politicians. "Teachers were not consulted, nor were school administrators," Williams says. "The public was not informed. Even the state Board of Education was largely in the dark until legislative studies and Office of Education Accountability-sponsored studies revealed major flaws in the test."
KIRIS created controversy for two reasons. First, it required subjective, essay-style answers to open-ended questions. Second, it established a system of rewards and sanctions which depended on schools' test results. Schools and teachers whose students did well received cash rewards. Those that did poorly got state intervention. Independent studies re-peatedly found that the tests and portfolios were technically unreliable and invalid. Additionally, because KIRIS places great emphasis on attitudes, there was little demand for basic skills.
Public frustration and dis-atisfaction continued to grow, particularly among teachers and parents. In 1997, the state fired its New Hampshire contractor for the $8 million-a-year test over a scoring controversy surrounding the 1996 test.
In the state legislature, Republican calls for reform reached a crescendo, with Sen. Williams leading a crusade to scrap KIRIS altogether and replace it with a standardized test. Donna Shedd explains: "Early in the 1998 legislative session, Sen. Williams introduced S.B. 113, which would have stopped KIRIS immediately and called for the administering of a nationally-normed, standardized test. Such a test would have cost a fraction of what KIRIS costs, and would enable parents to compare their children's education to that of children in other states."
In fact, Williams' bill reflected the will of the people of Kentucky. One senator, for example, reported that he had received 1,700 calls from constituents demanding the test's demise, and only 65 in favor of keeping it. Even Senate Democratic Leader David Karem, who was head of the committee that designed the program, complained that "they have allowed, unchecked, the perception to grow of problem, problem, problem, until now it has its own momentum."
In February, the Kentucky Senate passed, by a vote of 35 to 1, a bill that incorporated much of S.B. 113, and would have eliminated KIRIS after students were tested this spring. When the bill reached the House, the Democratic chairman of the Education Committee refused to hear it, and the House instead began preparing its own legislation. The resulting House bill did not throw the system out altogether, but called for an overhaul of the test. The bills became deadlocked. "The stalemate made lawmakers very nervous," notes Mrs. Shedd. The Governor, the liberal media, and big business organized a rally and ran media promotions in support of the status quo bill, the House version. It was difficult for the grassroots parents and teachers to compete."
The Senate leadership went back to the drawing board and hammered out a final compromise, which passed the Senate with only four of the 18 Republicans in favor. Sen. Williams called the final bill "a cave-in." It required students to take the KIRIS test this spring, with $28 million in taxpayer-funded reward money to be distributed to teachers, despite the proven unreliability of the test results. The new legislation continues appropriating reward money, though it will go to the schools for improvements beginning in 2000.
The bill mandates that the new CATS test to be developed for 1999 shall include both multiple-choice and essay questions. Many decisions, including whether or not portfolios will be part of the assessments, are being left up to the Kentucky Department of Education - the same bureaucracy that previously threw out the reliable multiple-choice questions. The bill sets up a legislative subcommittee to advise the state school board and review regulations on assessment and accountability. A new 15-person advisory council will be appointed by the Governor, and the state will recruit a national panel of testing experts. Donna Shedd asks: "Dare Kentucky hope to get a council and panel who have no vested interest in the previous system and at least a modicum of fiscal responsibility?"
Fallout from the battle over KIRIS is continuing. The Kentucky Commissioner of Education has fired the person in charge of public relations, who was reportedly earning a salary of $78,000 per year. The short development time for CATS may create problems for the new test before it is generated, because it places the Department of Education and its contractors under such tight time constraints. Ironically, Gex Williams' original legislation would have temporarily suspended all rewards and sanctions for a couple of years to allow a new assessment system to be developed.

"The study of theological anthropology raises notoriously difficult issues. In this very well-informed book, Marc Cortez addresses some of the toughest of these issues, and he does so in a way that is not only clear-headed and insightful but also scrupulously fair and gracious. Without trying to 'solve' all difficulties, he lays out the options, evaluates relative strengths and weaknesses, and points the way forward." – Thomas McCall, Associate Professor of Biblical and Systematic Theology,
"'Cortez provides an accessible, broad and penetrating inttroduction to several key ideas in the area of theological anthropology. Continuing the emphasis of the 'Guide for the Perplexed' series, Cortez chooses four pillars around which to construct his introduction to what it means to be human: imago dei, sexuality, mind and body and free will.' - Kyle Strobel, University of Aberdeen" – Kyle Strobel,

LG Electronics has been named a Thomson Reuters 2011 Top 100 Global InnovatorSM, recognized for its achievements as one of the world's most innovative companies. In developing the list of Top 100 Global Innovators, Thomson Reuters, a leading provider of intellectual property solutions and information, analyzes patent data and related metrics in a proprietary methodology to scientifically identify the most influential organizations globally.
The Thomson Reuters 2011 Top Global Innovators program evaluates performance in three areas: companies that invent on a significant scale work on developments that are acknowledged as innovative by others around the world, and whose inventions are globally protected due to their importance.
"Our innovation has been one of our priorities, in order to ensure that our products meet customer experience, satisfaction and value for money. Over the years, LG has been investing in research and development to give our customers the best." Said Mr. H.S. Paik, President of LG Electronics Gulf FZE.
In September, LG was named by Jeffries & Co., a global securities and investment banking group, as the world leader in LTE patents. This finding was based on the company's analysis of 1,400 LTE patents that the investment bank categorized as "essential." LG's LTE patents accounted for 23 percent of the 1,400 patents. Jeffries & Co.'s report clearly singled out LG's unrivalled leadership in LTE technology which was valued by the bank at nearly USD 8 billion.
Thomson Reuters Derwent World Patents Index (DWPI), Derwent Patents Citations Index, Quadrilateral Patent Index, and Thomson Innovation, the IP and intelligence collaboration platform were used to carefully analyze patent data for the Thomson Reuters 2011 Top 100 Global Innovators program. Comparative analysis was done using the Thomson Reuters Eikon platform, the single source for turning financial information into action.

BUCHAREST (Nov. 20)
The Rumanian Government today announced that Jews will no longer be considered a national minority, but will be classified as Rumanians of Jewish religion.
The announcement was issued by the Ministry for Nationalities. No interpretation of the new policy was given. Hitherto, Jews in Rumania were regarded as a national minority, although the national minority rights secured for them under international agreements were violated or even annulled on many occasions.
The Rumanian section of the World Jewish Congress opened a conference here today with sixty delegates from various Jewish organizations in Rumania participating. The conference was addressed by Chief Rabbi Szafran, Dr. William Filderman, Dr. A. Zissu, Dr. Wilhelm Fischer and other Rumanian Jewish leaders.

Are they more fishy than sweet? The Maach Mishti team of director Mainak Bhaumik and two leading ladies — Parno Mittra, who plays a tomboy, and Neha Panda, who plays a Marwari girl from Bombay — pick a bone with t2 over Vodka-soaked Prawns and Bekti Paturi at Bohemian.
Who's a fishy person for you?
Parno: A person who you don't know much about, like Mainak. Whenever he gets a call, he runs out of the room and talks and you will never know who he is talking to and you don't know who he is hanging out with and who he is dating, so he is the fishiest person!
Neha: A two-faced person who is fake, is something with me and somebody else with others.
Mainak, do you agree with that?
Mainak: Yes, I am a little fishy. I want to keep my world separate from everyone else.
Parno: That's being fishy in a good way! I'm just the opposite. Everybody knows what's going on in my life.
Have you ever dated a fishy guy?
Parno: Yes, I have dated fishy men! One person took Rs 20,000 from me when I was 18 and never returned it. He was fishy. He would meet me in the evening but his phone would be engaged till late in the night. I called it quits not because he was fishy but because he didn't return my money! (Laughs) He still messages me and asks me why we don't meet. I told him to first return my money and then I would talk.
Neha: I have met a lot of fishy guys but I never dated them.
Parno: Oh, I had met one more fishy guy. On the fourth day of our affair, I found out that he was married!
Who do you find fishy in Tollywood?
Neha: I can't name anyone. I will lose my job as a stylist!
Mainak: Okay, Debasree Roy?
Parno: We are so busy with ourselves that we don't think about anybody else.
Mainak: You guys are such narcissists! Param (Parambrata Chattopadhyay) is fishy, he is a fish-eater. He is always looking for fish and that's not a good thing because I hate fish.
Who are your fishy co-actors in Maach Mishti & More? Parno: Well, my only co-actor is Soumitrada (Chatterjee), so I don't know!
Neha: I was also the stylist of the film, so I can't say.
Parno: Param?!
Neha: Rachita Chauhan (plays Parambrata's Marwari girlfriend)!
Have you ever felt like a fish out of water?
Neha: Yes, I have. When I first came to Calcutta (from Rajasthan), you know... it's very difficult to gel with a new place, culture and language. But now I have become a Bong!
Parno: See, I come from a very different world. My friends are very different from the people in the industry. It took me a while to get along with people and those few months, I did feel like a fish out of water.
Mainak, what does the maach part of Maach Mishti stand for?
Mainak: I guess my definition of maach is homely. It was more to do with family, safety, sort of a cushion... so maach is the cushion where you have your dad, mum and the set-up in life where everything is ready. It's a part of most of the characters in Maach Mishti... it's centred around a family. The major association is with Bengalis who are within a family situation and who have this cushion. For instance, Shauvik (plays Rahul, Param's elder brother in Maach Mishti) is not a part of this cushion because he is coming back from another country. Param and Anubrata (plays Raj, the third brother) are a part of the cushion because they live with their parents. So their story is the maach part.
In Tollywood, who do you think is a big fish in a small pond?
Neha: Parambrata!
Mainak: Neha. I think she will make a mark in a place like Bombay. I think they will be able to explore her more. The way she looks and carries herself is very Bollywoodish.
Parno: For me, it would be Mainak. I would be really happy if Mainak could make the films he makes in Hindi because they have potential and can have a wider audience. He should definitely get out of Calcutta.
Who's a jellyfish in Tollywood?
Mainak: Parno is weird!
Parno: Why? Because I am different from the rest? But I get along with everyone.
Neha: I think Raima (Sen). She's mad!
Mainak: Yes, hands down, Raima.

EXCLUSIVE: Emmy winner Todd Holland has been tapped to direct NBC's single-camera comedy Isabel. The project, a family comedy with a magical twist, was written on spec by Howard Busgang and Tom Nursall. Inspired by the French-Canadian series Le Monde De Charlotte, it centers on an otherwise normal angry middle-class family that wrestles with the challenges of everyday life while raising a daughter who has magical qualities. In addition to directing, Holland, who is based at Universal TV with producing partner Karey Burke, will also serve as an executive producer on the pilot alongside Aaron Kaplan, French-Canadian TV producer Jocelyn Deschenes, Busgang and Nursall. Holland's directing work on another single-camera family comedy, Fox's Malcolm In the Middle, earned him one of his 3 Emmy awards (the other 2 were for episodes of Malcolm and The Larry Sanders Show). He most recently directed the pilot for NBC's comedy series Free Agents.
Todd Holland To Direct NBC's Comedy Pilot 'Isabel'
8 Comments
Great casting directors on the project. Looking forward to who they find.
Who're the casting directors on this?
Schiff/Audino from Mad Men.
Yay – I loved "Sabrina, The Teenage Witch". Happy to hear they're remaking it.
No, more like an extended version of Harry Potter living with his "Muggle" relatives.
Great casting directors? This website has the weirdest commenters.
Lesson was not learned from recent experience with foreign series remake. At least the previous series was from a better writer. And are the casting directors the first to comment incognito since their names weren't listed in this release?
This makes me think of Matilda. Lovely movie.

New Jersey Makes List Of The 10 Worst States To Retire In
TopRetirements.com has compiled a list of the 10 worst states in which to retire, based on five factors: fiscal health, property taxes, income taxes, cost of living and climate. This year's Worst 10 List features three new arrivals – Vermont, Minnesota and Maine – meaning three other states escaped retirement infamy: Ohio, Nevada and California. After crunching the numbers, seven of the 10 states to retire in were in the Northeast:
Taxes – a familiar theme – brings Wisconsin into the Top 10.
Cold winters and cold cost of living brings Maine into the mix.
Property taxes are the main issue here.
Harsh winters and harsh taxes would make for a not-so-pleasant retirement.
Taxes, taxes, taxes. If you are currently living here, you know.
The high cost of living would make a retirement here difficult.
Property taxes and cold winters bring Vermont into the Top 5.
Taxes and pension troubles keep Rhode Island in the Top 3.
Illinois has been hit hard by the down economy.
Taxes and cost of living bring Connecticut to the top of this list.

(WALL STREET JOURNAL) — By Dan Frosch
SOUTHLAKE, Texas—The gunman walked toward Juan Jesús Guerrero Chapa, who sat in his Range Rover parked at a tony suburban Dallas shopping center.
Mr. Guerrero Chapa had just finished shopping for shoes with his wife, but moments later the 43-year-old Mexican lawyer was dead, struck by multiple shots from a 9-millimeter pistol. The gunman and an accomplice drove away, the brief early evening encounter caught on a surveillance camera.
The 2013 slaying stunned this upscale North Texas city of 29,000, which hadn't seen a murder since 1999. But that wasn't all: The man killed was allegedly a prominent member of Mexico's Gulf Cartel drug trafficking organization, according to U.S. federal officials. His assassination brought that country's drug war to the doorstep of the serene American neighborhood where the Guerrero Chapas lived.
This week, two of three men prosecutors say are responsible for Mr. Guerrero Chapa's death will stand trial in Fort Worth, in a case expected to offer a rare glimpse into the nexus of Mexican cartels operating in the U.S.
Jesús Gerardo Ledezma-Cepeda, 59, and his cousin, José Luis Cepeda-Cortés, 60, face charges of conspiracy to commit murder for hire and interstate stalking—which carry up to life in prison. Both men have pleaded not guilty.
Mr. Ledezma-Cepeda's son, Jesús Gerardo Ledezma-Campano, 32, who faces the same charges in the killing, recently pleaded guilty and is expected to testify for the prosecution, according to a person familiar with the case.
All three men are Mexican citizens; Mr. Cepeda-Cortés was legally in the U.S. on a green card.
According to federal officials, Mr. Guerrero Chapa was the lawyer for Gulf Cartel chief Osiel Cárdenas-Guillén—now imprisoned at the U.S.'s so-called Supermax facility in Florence, Colo.,—and played an important role in the organization.

The Swarm
Rep. Anthony Weiner (D. NY): I read it on The Daily Swarm
TDS Editors
You can certainly be forgiven for remaining blissfully unaware of this week's Congressional hearings on the language of hip-hop. Truly, nothing was said that you haven't heard before and nothing was accomplished.
But, one short segment perked our ears: the five minute opening statement by New York Representative Anthony Weiner. In his brief remarks, the congressman displayed not only a fine sense of musical taste (Brand Nubian, A Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul and "the Barrington Levys of the world") and more than a passing knowledge of the reality of today's music industry ("I think when Chamillionaire makes a decision on his second record not to use the 'N' word…it's a business calculation;" "I haven't seen a video on MTV in forever;" "You don't need a label at all!"), but also an extremely keen, astute, possibly genius idea of where to get his information. Check out the video above at the 4:30 mark.
To thank our fine friend the representative from New York for being the first to enter "The Daily Swarm" into the Congressional record, he gets a hearty shout-out on this site. Rep. Weiner, we don't live in your district so you can't get our votes next November, but if you should really decide to run for mayor of New York City in 2009, we're totally on your team.
UPDATE: The Hill calls Weiner 'dangerously hip':
As the hearing wore on, the four-term bachelor congressman dropped cool-guy references so smoothly, we found ourselves wanting to get a look at his iPod.
It was Weiner who first noted that today's recording artists have found a way to promote their dance music without the help of a company to represent them.
Instead, musicians can "just go to the clubs and get an influential enough DJ to play your CD — before you know it, you don't need a label at all," Weiner noted, as if everybody knows about dance clubs and influential disc jockeys.
He went on to quote a Johnny Cash song, mention influential reggae artist Buju Banton, reference a comment made by gangsta rapper Cam'ron (without saying who he was quoting, because everybody knows Cam'ron) and cite information gleaned from a popular music news website.
So what gives?
A spokesman chose not to corroborate our suspicion that Weiner did a little after-hours "research" on dance clubs, saying only that his boss always makes sure to be prepared for hearings.
(Gotta love this guy.)

The source code for the JavaScript web scanner Jikto has made it into the wild, making it easier for attackers to silently turn PCs into scanners for sites vulnerable to cross-site scripting exploits.
|Jikto Hits The Web
"I will not be releasing the source code of Jikto…" – Billy Hoffman, March 22nd, talking about his upcoming Shmoocon discussion of Jikto.
"It appears that the source code to Jikto is in the wild." – Billy Hoffman, April 2nd, noting how someone promptly grabbed the code during his Shmoocon presentation and posted it publicly.
The potential impact of Jikto, a JavaScript-based website scanning engine, was one of the topics that came up during our chat with Paul Henry of Secure Computing. Plenty of discussion about it had taken place online before we talked last week, and that proved very timely.
As Henry noted, Jikto installs silently on a machine visiting a web page containing its JavaScript. Once Jikto is in place, it can scan other sites for holes, and report them back to whoever has been designated in Jikto as a recipient.
Hoffman, a security researcher at SPI Dynamics, took steps during his presentation to try and keep prying eyes from seeing where the Jikto code could be obtained. Although he said in a later blog post that SPI took "extreme steps" to keep the source code protected during the Shmoocon talk, a hacker going by the handle of LogicX easily spotted a URL where he could get it.
He did so, and posted it to his website and then to Digg. Although LogicX took it down upon request, the damage was done, and Jikto made it into the wild.
"Regardless what you might have heard, SPI didn't leak it," said Hoffman. "Even LogicX admitted he snatched it because he got lucky."
"I meant no harm to Billy or SPI, and immediately took it down. My interest in the code was purely from the perspective of how it worked," LogicX wrote on his blog. He identified himself as an Information Security Consultant with Security Management Partners in Boston.
The code that escaped was only client side code, LogicX said, and is incomplete without other pieces of Jikto.
As a proof of concept, Hoffman just wanted to show how dangerous XSS vulnerabilities could be, and why web designers needed to be more aware of developing an online application securely. When criminals start building upon Hoffman's work, the real world demonstration will be very instructive.

This review introduces the self-oscillating behavior of two types of nonthermoresponsive polymer systems with Ru catalyst moieties for the Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction: one with a poly-vinylpyrrolidone (PVP) main chain, and the other with a poly(2-propenamide) (polyacrylamide) (PAM) main chain. The amplitude of the VP-based self-oscillating polymer chain and the activation energy for self-oscillation are hardly affected by the initial concentrations of the BZ substrates. The influences of the initial concentrations of the BZ substrates and the temperature on the period of the swelling-deswelling self-oscillation are examined in detail. Logarithmic plots of the period against the initial concentration of one BZ substrate, when the concentrations of the other two BZ substrates are fixed, show good linear relationships. The period of the swelling-deswelling self-oscillation decreases with increasing temperature, in accordance with the Arrhenius equation. The maximum frequency (0.5 Hz) of the poly(VP-

The LCST of the polymer solution was measured under the reduced and oxidized states by using Ce(SO4)2 as an oxidizing agent and Ce2(SO4)3 as a reducing agent. The polymer solutions were prepared by dissolving the polymer in a 0.3 M HNO3 aqueous solution and adding 5 mM Ce(SO4)2 or 5 mM Ce2(SO4)3. The LCST measurements were carried out with a spectrophotometer (JASCO, Model V-630, Tokyo, Japan) equipped with magnetic stirrers and a thermostatic controller. In this measurement, the 570 nm wavelength was used because it is the isosbestic point for the reduced and oxidized states of Ru(bpy)3. The transmittance (%) of the polymer solution at 570 nm was then recorded by raising the temperature at the rate of 0.5 °C/min.
The polymer solutions were prepared by dissolving the polymer into an aqueous solution containing the three BZ substrates (malonic acid (MA), sodium bromate (NaBrO3), and nitric acid (HNO3)). The measurements of the transmittance self-oscillation were carried out with a spectrophotometer (JASCO, Model V-630, Tokyo, Japan). The self-oscillations of the polymer solutions were measured under constant temperature with stirring. In order to detect the transmittance change, a wavelength of 570 nm was used. The time series of the transmittance at 570 nm was monitored by a spectrophotometer.
The equilibrium swelling ratio of the gels in the reduced and the oxidized states was measured by using the oxidizing and reducing agents. Gels were added to either Ce(III) solution with [Ce2(SO4)3] = 0.001 M and [HNO3] = 0.3 M or Ce(IV) solution with [Ce3(SO4)2] = 0.001 M and [HNO3] = 0.3 M, both of which had the same acidity. The equilibrium swelling ratio of the gels was observed and recorded using a microscope (Fortissimo Corp. WAT-250D, Tokyo, Japan), an LED light (LEDR-74/40 W), and a video recorder (Victor Corp. SR-DVM700, Tokyo, Japan). Analysis was conducted using image processing software (Image J 1.38x). Measurements of the equilibrium swelling ratio were performed in a water-jacketed cell made of acrylic plates.
The gel membrane was cut into rectangles (side length about 2 × 20 mm) and immersed into 8 mL of an aqueous solution containing malonic acid (MA), sodium bromate (NaBrO3), and nitric acid (HNO3). Changes in the shape of the gel strip were observed and recorded using a microscope (OLYMPUS.IX71, Tokyo, Japan) and a video recorder (Victor Corp. SR-DVM700, Tokyo, Japan). Analysis was conducted using image processing software (Image J 1.38x). A one-pixel line along the length of the recorded gel image was stored at regular time intervals (0.05 s). The stored pixel line images were sequentially lined up as a function of time by the computer, to construct a spatiotemporal diagram. From the obtained diagram, the time-dependent change in the gel edge was traced in order to show the volume change behavior.
