In August 2014 my wife and I spent 6 nights in the small appartment in Vlkova Residence.
The location was perfect as we could just walk to the Old Town within 15 minutes!
The appartment was cozy, very clean and comfortable.
Small kichennet was equipped with all items you might need.
The host Simone is really nice and polite. He prepared for us a written information how to get to the main points in the city, where to eat, what to see, etc. The small basket - free welcome pack - with bars and waffers was so sweet.
We can confidently recommend this appartment for nice stay in Prague.
The stay at the Central Studio Apartment Oikes in Prague was impressive. We stay for three nights and we felt really comfortable. The appartment (we got a bigger one that the one we were supposed to get) was clean, comfortable, and included all the necessary comodities to live (and cook). The room was shiny and the bathroom luxurious. The only "but" was that the wi-fi did not work in all the rooms, you had to get close to the entrance of the appartment to access the internet. I can only recommend the place and as I will be probably coming back to Prague again, I know where I'll stay. Low price, high quality.
We had a nice time Prague: Friendly host, good information. Nice location and clean and spacious appartment.
We have enjoyed our stay in the apartment very much. The service was very good. There was a pleasant welcome when we arrived. The room was bigger en nicer than we expected. The location of the apartment is perfect. In about 10-15 minutes you're in the city centre, so that was very nice. And there is a tram station en metro station nearby so you can travel where ever you like. We definitely would come back to this place.
We had a great time in Prague and the appartment was above expectations. We got the bigger appartment with the rooftopterras with great view! It was very clean and Simone was there at our arrival to give us the key and information. He is very friendy and polite. There was also a nice espressomachine with coffee for us! So we could drink a nice espresso in the morning! Very good spot, with a minimarket on the opposite site of the street. A lot of nice bars in this district and not so far from the centre. Also a tramstop within 100 meters.

In case you didn't get enough pie for Thanksgiving, try consuming your pie in the form of a creamy, frothy shake. For Kelsey Nixon's Apple Pie Shake, all you need is three simple ingredients: vanilla ice cream, milk, and a thick wedge of apple pie. Think of it as drinking your pie a la mode through a straw. The best part about this recipe is that you can switch up the flavor of ice cream or pie, depending on the season and your own preferences. How about some pumpkin pie with cinnamon ice cream for an inventive Turkey Day drink? Or might we suggest spiking this shake with brandy or smoky, smooth bourbon to curb your holiday stress?
Bottoms up, folks.
Recipe courtesy Kelsey Nixon
- 2 scoops vanilla ice cream
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1/8 slice apple pie, frozen and then thawed 30 minutes
- A splash of bourbon or brandy (optional)
Place a tall glass in the freezer to chill.
Add the ice cream, milk and pie to the blender. Blend until fully combined and frothy. Serve in the chilled glass and enjoy! Feel free to change up the pie and ice cream, depending on the season.
Cook's Note: Freezing your pie before blending will give you a nice, thick texture.
For more Kelsey Nixon recipes, be sure to tune into Cooking Channel on Thanksgiving Day for a Kelsey's Essentials marathon from noon to 7:30pm ET.

He has published on a variety of topics regarding public information law, public employment law, consumer law, and whistleblower protection. He is the author of a book on federal open government laws in the United States, the editor of a book on freedom of information, the editor of a book on transparency, and the author of several articles addressing public information law. He has written several books on public employment law, including ones on civil service reform, principles of civil service law, conflict of interest regulation in the federal government, and the United States Merit Systems Protection Board. His public employment law articles address topics, such as, the right to disobey illegal orders, ethics in government, the Hatch Act, the role of public employment laws in the transition to democracy, and British regulation of public service ethics. He is the author of a book and related articles on consumer protection laws in South America. He is the author of a book examining the effectiveness of whistleblower laws and the editor of an anthology of articles regarding whistleblowing law. His articles on whistleblower protection address important statutes, such as the whistleblower provision of the Civil Service Reform Act, the whistleblower provision of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, state whistleblower laws, and a model law to implement the Inter-American Convention Against Corruption. He is also the author of a book on civil procedure and articles on judicial reform, on the future of the federal courts, and on the relationship between judicial transparency and administrative transparency.
Among his consulting positions have been ones with the Treasury and Civil Service Committee of the House of Commons, the World Bank, and the Office of Legal Cooperation of the Organization of American States.

It's no secret that street food is having a moment here in the States. Food carts and specialty trucks now serve some of the most sought-after foods in major cities like San Francisco, Los Angeles, Austin and New York. Sidewalks have become the new sit-down restaurants, and lines often run not one, but two city blocks. But what's become a novelty on our side of the Atlantic has been a staple of Asian cuisine for centuries. And in Singapore, some of the country's best food can be found while walking its streets.
In an ode to Singapore's rich culinary history and unique street food scene, 10 Singaporean chefs have been traveling the world and preparing traditional Singaporean cuisine out of a pop-up mobile kitchen. Set to span 4 continents, and 9 countries, the Singapore Takeout truck made its way to New York City this past week. Were we about to pass up an opportunity to try the famous street food fare? I think not.
48-Hour Short Rib: Buah Keluak
Singaporean food benefits from a wide-range of culinary influences. From Malaysian spices to Indian curries and Chinese-inspired cooking methods, its unique cuisine formed more as a coming-together of regional styles than anything else. Emblematic of Peranakan (Chinese-inspired cuisine), Chef Malcolm Lee's 48-Hour Short Rib showcased the full range of these influences by including sambal (chili relish) and sayur lodeh (coconut curry vegetable stew). Malcolm warned that it was spicy, and with good reason.
Pork Satay with Peanut Sauce (pictured at top)
Satay is one of the more familiar Singaporean treats, but when prepared by Spice Market's Anthony Ricco, one can expect a few clever and creative twists. His version came marinated in a sesame lemongrass sauce, grilled until just tender and served with a peanut sauce scented with tamarind and shrimp paste. Eaten alongside calamansi sticky rice, Chef Ricco's take on traditional Singaporean Pork Satay was so good it was virtually impossible not to ask for a few extra skewers.
Newton Circus Skate
From small, dainty snacks to high-end lavish meals, hawker centers — street-food food courts — are where most, if not all, of Singapore's fabled street food is served. Newton Circus, one of Singapore's major food centers, also happens to be known for its exquisite skate-based dishes. Traditionally rubbed with sambal chili relish and made very, very spicy, Chef Anthony Ricco oven roasted his with a chili glaze and served it alongside a fresh cucumber, mint and lime salad. Singapore's utmost hawker center would be proud.
If you want to try your hand at Singaporean food at home, we've got you covered:
Singapore-Style Noodles
Singapore-Style Chili Crabs
Singaporean Slaw Salad with Salted Apricot Dressing
Singaporean Coffee Ribs

My php script is running with owner "denny" as reported by
but the files it creates with
show the owner of the files as "www" as reported by Get Info in Finder.
does let let me change the owner: "Warning: chown() [function.chown]: Operation not permitted in ..."
How do I tell php to create the file with owner "denny"?
The owner of the PHP Process is 'www' (you can verify this with the ps command a the command-line).If it is important for 'denny' to have access to the files (although, unless 'denny' is an administrator of the machine, you should let your PHP application control all files and access to them for each user) and that is a user on the system, you can add 'denny' and 'www' to the same group.
I believe if you provide a little more detail about what you are trying to accomplish (the "Why" behind this) there are many here who can point you to success.
get_current_user is a bit of a misnomer - I think you'll find that it gets 'denny' because thats the owner of the php file currently in execution. However, the actual user executing the PHP script is 'www'.You'll need to chown, so www will need sudo capability.
Is this for a local machine, or are you trying to do this on an actual deployment?
It's a little word processor web app. I write the text with BBEdit

Mantenimiento de Desagües

Estimados Copropietarios:

Para minimizar los inconvenientes con los desagües de los apartamentos la Junta de Condominio ha recopilado las siguientes sugerencias.

1.- Uso apropiado

and the script displays the final letter on the screen and saves the completed letter to a folder.
It works fine but the file is saved with owner "www" meaning it can't be edited in BBEdit until I change the owner which I can do but it's a PITA.
This is running on my laptop. On my server I have an issue with permissions that I need to resolve with my web host.
For now it's on my laptop. What do I "chown?" (yes I have sudo capability).
On my server I have an issue with permissions that I need to resolve with my web host.
Correction, on the server there is no problem with the permissions but I do have a problem converting diacritics to html (accents, etc. --> ¡¿áüç <-- characters we use in Spanish)
On your laptop, if -www- has sudo capability, you can drop him to the command line and exec the chown.
What are you trying to convert that doesnt get converted by htmlentities?
On the contrary, it converts too much! Like "<" and ">" which ruins the html! :eek:
Some functions have an exclusion or inclusion parameter but not htmlentities() that I know of.
So when you htmlspecialchars_decode the result on the other end, it comes out wrong?
I don't use htmlspecialchars_decode. I need to explain this hack.
I believe that in a ideal world we should only have three desktop apps: a browser, an ftp package, and a text editor. Everything else should be a web app. Since PCs are now servers, we can use the web apps locally which is what I'm doing with the one I'm testing now.
My web app (which does not yet have a name) creates an HTML5 document which prints a letter just like a word processor document using a template for the letterhead and a text document for the letter body. In fact, the browser acts like a word processor. It's a simple script really:
$files = "/Users/username/Sites/path/to/letters/";
// this is the html header and the letterhead
$html = <<< AVILAAVILA
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<title>Edifico Avila</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="avila.css">

Avenida Buenos Aires, Los Caobos, Caracas.
// this is the letter's body
$html .= file_get_contents("+avila.html");
$html .= "\
// create a ubique file name
$date = date ("m-d-y");
$filename = "{$files}avila-{$date}.html";
$append = "";
while (file_exists ($filename)) {
$append += 1;
$filename = $filename = "{$files}avila-{$date}-{$append}.html";
if ($append > 10) {
die ("too many files already");
// adjust some URLs for archiving
$html1 = str_replace ("avila.css", "../avila.css", $html);
$html1 = str_replace ('src="images/', 'src="../images/', $html1);
$html1 = str_replace ('', '', $html1);
// save the file
if (file_put_contents ($filename, $html1) === FALSE) {
die ("Cannot write to file ($filename)");
// show some feedback on the screen
echo "
";
echo "Success, $filename";
echo "
";
// display the letter
echo $html;
The problem is that in Spanish we use diacritical marks: accents, tildes, cedillas, and umlauts (áéíóúñçü) plus opening exclamation and question mark (¡¿). The best way to deal with them is to use the html entity codes. Typing the html entity codes is pita so I want to use some code to translate them. But htmlentities also converts the open and close html tags "<>" which I need to render the html correctly. I also have the option of using a BBEdit Text Factory but I prefer a php solution. I have a function for the conversion which works on my laptop but gives funny (UTF-8?) codes on my LAMP server.
function c2html($text) {
$table = array(
'¡' => '¡',
'¢' => '¢',
'£' => '£',
'©' => '©',
'®' => '®',
'°' => '°',
'¿' => '¿',
'á' => 'á',
'ç' => 'ç',
'é' => 'é',
'í' => 'í',
'ñ' => 'ñ',
'ó' => 'ó',
'ú' => 'ú',
'ü' => 'ü',
'&' => '&',
'¥' => '¥');
return strtr($text, $table);
Thanks for listening!
You really dont need to explain it so much. You have some HTML you need to encode and store, and then decode only the html characters, leaving the diacretics.
Interesting idea! But I would have to change the workflow. Let me think about it and I'll get back to you. Thanks!
$html .= htmlentities(file_get_contents("+avila.html"), ENT_NOQUOTES, "iso-8859-1");
$html = htmlspecialchars_decode($html);
echo $html;
BTW, one has to make sure the file itself (+avila.html) is saved as "iso-8859-1" otherwise it does not work.

Workshop VII
I like the solubility worksheet intro, I would probably do the lab along with it to show kids what insoluble, soluble and precipitate looks like in real life. Definitely something I will add.
The water testing we actually do in our general science class in ninth grade and we test for nitrates, phosphates, dissolved oxygen, etc. There are some really good water chemistry labs out there from USGS and some other water sites, like Project Wet and Chemcom.We also use the CBL's. We extend the lesson to include some scenarios about mine run-off because of the mining history of our state. We have taken a fieldtrip to go upto some mine sites, taken the tour and tested the water - the kids really liked it. We also go to the mining museum and learn about assaying with mercury and the problems with that. Its a good way to tie in some history with the chemistry!
The alum lab I do in AP Chem, but now I may move it to regular chemistry, because I really liked the way the lab was presented. I really like the way this class shows lessons that I can almost immediately incorporate into my own lessons!

IT in emergencies
With more emergencies occurring each year, ranging from conflict and civil unrest to natural disasters and medical outbreaks, emergency responders must work harder, push themselves further and respond more effectively than ever before.
But before humanitarians can deliver lifesaving aid and assistance to those most in need, IT emergency responders are first on the ground, ensuring that robust, yet agile, IT, telecommunications and the underpinning electrical solutions are in place. After all, communications is the backbone of a successful emergency response.
WFP's Fast Information Technology and Telecommunications Emergency and Support Team (FITTEST) leads the way. Whether developing new technologies and solutions for the field, providing specialized training and support to the response community and local staff or sweating it out in some of the world's harshest and most remote locations, FITTEST is on the frontline of any IT emergency response.
For general enquires about FITTEST, please email: email@example.com
Global Humanitarian Services (GHS) in the United Arab Emirates is dedicated to providing equipment and services to assist the response community in carrying out its life-saving work. To enquire or purchase telecommunications, IT and electrical equipment, services and training courses, please contact: firstname.lastname@example.com

Star Trek AliensLogic Grid puzzles come with a handy interactive grid that will help you solve the puzzle based on the given clues.
The annual Star Trek convention was in town and as a result, aliens and Trekkies overran the town. Five friends came dressed up as aliens from different planets which Star Fleet had made contact with over the years. Each planet orbited a different star, and had a different size population. From the clues given, determine the name of the planet, the year Star Fleet made contact, the star the planet orbits, and the size of the population.
1) The population of Kappa is larger than that of the planet orbiting Polaris, which made contact earlier than Kappa.
2) Wezen is the star whose planet, which is not named Rho, has a population of 9.5 million.
3) Zeta is the planet around Albati, which was not the last one to make contact.
4) The Mu contact took place in 2161.
5) Contact was made in 2217 with Betelgeuse system, whose population was smaller than the planet contacted in 2202.
6) The largest population is on Pi, contacted next after the smallest population.
7) 12 million was the population of the planet contacted after the planet in the Electra system.
AnswerIn 2148 contact was made with Zeta in the Albati system with a population of 10 million.
In 2161 contact was made with Mu in the Polaris system with a population of 8.5 million.
In 2202 contact was made with Pi in the Electra system with a population of 15 million.
In 2217 contact was made with Rho in the Betelgeuse system with a population of 12 million.
In 2238 contact was made with Kappa in the Wezen system with a population of 9.5 million.

text: Daniel bryan should feud for the wwe title IMO by survivor series. The man is gold. His promo work is now even more enjoyable, he is the best pure wrestler in the wwe, and has great ring chemistry with punk. Now if they actually gave him and punk a good story-line instead of their lazy, let's throw aj lee into the main event level feud crap they have been pulling off for a while now, they might get some of the greatest matches of this generation out of them. The major road block to this plan is obviously ryback. Ryback will hold the wwe title before 2013 is done IMO, and thus making my scenario very unlikely. Maybe have Bryan feud with Ziggler instead for the whc. Ziggler could sell Bryan's aggressive move set as well as anyone, plus Bryan is a face who isn't unbeatable, so Ziggler wouldn't have to find cheap ways to win like he does have to do against someone like Cena, and likely Orton if he were to feud with him.

You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"Our invitations arrived recently (sooner than expected) and look absolutely beautiful! The design requests we submitted were perfect and really helped to make our invitations unique."
"I am so happy with these invitations! They are simple, yet beautiful and classy. I wanted to put all the information (reception and all) on one card, and I needed to make a second set in another language. The designer followed my instructions perfectly and made great suggestions to fit the text on the page. They turned out even better than expected. The paper quality (I used the shimmer paper) was excellent. I would recommend the shimmer paper. I can't say enough about the service as well. The proofs were done so quickly, the people on the phone were amazing and friendly and the package was delivered days ahead of time. The only hiccup I had was that they were unable to tell me what the customs/duties would be so I had to just keep my fingers crossed. In the end, it wasn't so expensive (about $60 for Canada). I would recommend Wedding Paper Divas to any bride-to-be!"
"This was a beautiful invitation on very nice quality paper. The bride to be was very excited when she saw the finished product. They also arrived several days before the estimated arrival date. Thanks!"
"We just received our invitations and they are beautiful. The actual invites look even better in person. We loved the purple color, but chose the oranges to fit into our fall winery theme, which it did perfectly. The cards are beautiful and we are so happy with our choice!"
"We wanted a 1 sided card without the frills and this is perfect. Keep in mind you get the exact amount and no extras if you make a mistake! Overall awesome!"

PLANS to replace and upgrade an athletics track at the University of York have been lodged after a scheme to build a new sporting facility nearby was dropped.
City of York Athletic Club was originally expected to move to a new base at the York Sport Village, in Heslington, ahead of Huntington Stadium – its current home – being demolished to make way for a new community stadium.
However, City of York Council said last year that the risk of the project's costs increasing had led to a switch of sites, with the existing cinder track at the University of York's nearby Heslington West campus being replaced instead.
A planning application for the work has been submitted and a decision is due to be made at the start of May, with the aim of completing the floodlit, county-standard track by the end of the year.
The council has said the upgrade will save a considerable amount and mean the new track will be ready sooner than the Sports Village scheme would have been.
It will also be of better quality and have a field events area, although opposition parties questioned the decision process behind the change of sites when it was announced last September.
A clubhouse and new sand-based football and hockey pitch are also intended to be built next to the site.
A statement from Sports Labs Ltd, the agents for the scheme, said: "The proposals will provide a new, up-to-date athletics facility for both students and the community, which will attract new users and national competitions to the area.
"The university is keen to have a first-class sports facility at their disposal. The local community, in particular the running clubs, were also consulted and they would like a safe and clean facility suitable for their members.
"The athletics club wanted a track suitable to hold significant events and provide ample opportunities for training."
Sports Labs said the Heslington West site was "not without problems", as the existing track has six lanes and its replacement will have eight, and work will have to be carried out around water pipes which are in poor condition.
New 20-metre floodlights and a three-metre perimeter fence will also be installed.

THOM HARTMANN (18 Dec 2012): Ah, yeah, the good old 'more guns cause less violence' argument. [It's] sort of a gun-based variation on [the GOP's] 2012 theme that more rapes would equal fewer pregnancies. Remember that? Todd Akins [sic]?

THOM HARTMANN (8:07): Our nation has given air time [to] and entertained legislation from the crazy gun nuts in Washington for far too long, and, in the meantime, every decade, nearly a million Americans are shot and far more are killed [by guns than were killed] by Osama bin Laden.

Jeff Francoeur and the Mets avoided arbitration after the mid-season pickup signed a one-year, $5 million contract.
Meanwhile, relievers Sean Green and Pedro Feliciano also were able to work out deals for undisclosed sums to keep them on the roster for another season.
It's a bit surprising the Mets kept Green, who showed some promised but faltered later in the season. He sported a 4.52 ERA and was known for blowing leads, bouncing around from setup man to mop-up duty.
Feliciano was much more solid, posting a 3.03 ERA. He was the workhorse of the bullpen pitching in a club record 88 relief appearances.

Chair of Council Andy Cook said "This is a recognition of the outstanding contribution volunteers make to the life of CTC, and the impact they have on the lives of their fellow cyclists. I am personally delighted to see such a range of activities, from local groups to campaigners. CTC council is proud to have launched these awards in the Year of the Volunteer and we look forward to celebrating with the winners at the national dinner later this month."
Commenting on the awards CTC Director Kevin Mayne said "The two things that come to mind when reading the citations for all the entries are the extraordinary commitment shown by the volunteers who make local and regional cycling happen, and the sheer diversity of their activities."
The following extracts were taken by the judges from the citations sent by their nominees, in several cases coming from a number of people to reflect the reasons why these individuals were chosen for 2004.
JOHN TAYLOR Joint National Winner and CTC Volunteer of the Year 2004 for Scotland
John has been active as a volunteer for CTC for nearly 20 years and at the age of 75 is still seeking and promoting innovative cycle projects. He is recognised as one of the leading advocates who has done much to bring off-road cycling in Scotland to what it is today, a significant leisure industry and a source of income and jobs in remote rural areas.
At local level John has fought tirelessly for cycling in Dumfries and Galloway, has established the 'Discovery' rides, aimed at local people and those who cycle little, and he was a founder of the KM rally.
However it is particularly for his work at the Scotland-wide level that John is recognised for an award this year. He has represented cycling interests in the development of the legislation on access, which is now coming to fruition with the launch of the Outdoor Access Code and Guidance to Local Authorities, enabling the Act come into force. John has been appointed a member of the Scottish National Access Forum to represent cycling and has set up an advisory group to which all cycling groups can contribute. This is a ground breaking achievement in access for cyclists and recognition of John's 20 years of work in the area.
KAREN SUTTON Joint National Winner and CTC Volunteer of the Year 2004 for North West England
Karen Sutton was a new DA Secretary in 2003 but within a year had transformed a stagnating DA into a vibrant organisation. In 2004 she organised several hostel weekends plus a picnic bringing members of various sections together on memorable occasions, making our members realise that the CTC had much more to offer than a bi monthly magazine.
The one reason, more than any other that she received this award is for her organisation of the Peak Birthday Rides, for it was Karen and Karen alone who convinced the committee that the impossible could be achieved at short notice. With that hurdle overcome the hard work began, she delegated very little work, the job in hand had to be done properly, so she did it herself, overcoming all the hiccups along the way. The only assistance she requested was an army of volunteers throughout the week to work under her supervision.
The event itself was recognised as an outstanding success and received tremendous feedback from visitors.
Karen does all this while having a busy job and young family.
CHRISTOPHER CROSSLAND CTC Volunteer of the Year 2004 for Yorkshire & Humberside
Christopher is the lynch pin of the Halifax Section of the CTC, with activities that include ride and event organising, social activities, campaigning and encouraging others to ride. He has won this award because of the sheer scope of his activities and the energy he puts into his volunteering.
He organises standard and Audax rides, mans controls, sees that people get help with mechanical faults and provides very good food at controls! He puts together the twice yearly runs lists for the section; he leads many Sunday rides and has led the Wednesday evenings rides for the past 5 years.
In the summer he has turned his attention to commuters trying to work with Calderdale Council. During the winter he helps in the club room with weekly meetings making tea showing slides etc.
Christopher has ridden the Paris Brest Paris 3 times successfully and London Edinburgh London he still encourages people of whatever level to have a go, the impact he has had on most people whatever age or standard is outstanding.
REG POTTER CTC Volunteer of the Year 2004 for West Midlands
Reg Potter is a longstanding member of the CTC and has held office in other local and national cycling bodies. He is recognised for efforts over many years in furthering the cause of cycling and more particularly safe cycling within the Borough of Telford & Wrekin, all conducted with consistent good humour
Highlights in 2004 were:
Chair of the Telford & Wrekin Bicycle Users Group.
On site analysis and reporting of every road infrastructure project at the design stage. This is by request of the Borough Network Management team. Without this input final schemes would be far less cycle friendly
Carried out a signing requirement analysis of NCN 81 and NCN 55 in concert with the Borough Transport Officer
He has surveyed routes and provided design input to the 2004 Telford area cycling map. This map has been critically acclaimed and described by users as much superior to previous versions
Reg has worked alongside Transport Officers from the Borough to ensure that promised works are actioned and targets are met. Reg is relied upon to give a balanced view which will further the cause of cycling in a reasonable manner.
MAX SCOTT CTC Volunteer of the Year 2004 for East Midlands
Max Scott is the DA secretary for the Northamptonshire and North Bucks DA.
He receives this award for the breadth and commitment he shows to the DA and cycling activities in his area. Max is a real asset to cycling and cyclists and goes out of his way to help those interested in cycling, as well as his DA role he is a CTC Right to Ride representative covering a wide range of topics.
This includes his continuing work as DA Secretary, his efforts in local and county council cycling liaison committees, runs, hostelling and tourist trail organising, helping to start Wellingborough cycling forum and a CTC section in Northampton, producing runs lists and other literature relating to cycling and cyclists
In addition to this he is a vigorous supporter of national CTC activities and has greatly encouraged the DA to take part in events like the Birthday Rides, playing a key role in the 2002 rides at Milton Keynes.
This commitment is more than his own time; he uses his home for monthly evening meetings to support cycling he is genuinely the hub of the cycling community in his area.
PAM NELSON CTC Volunteer of the Year 2004 for East of England
Pam is regarded as a "new face" in the Colchester area having started actively campaigning in recent years, when she joined her local cycle campaign. In the last two years she has become one of cycling's most vigorous advocates.
She has been active with the public and the local authorities. She deals with a wide range of transport and health issues, not just cycling. She has raised the profile of cycling locally, particularly through her cycle training work. She currently works with "Living Streets", "In Town Without my Car" and the "Colchester Grand Prix" cycle race.
She has taken a leadership role on cyclist training, setting up a Cycle Training team in north east Essex, being used this year by local employers.
Pam has endless enthusiasm, both behind the scenes and getting out and networking. She puts in many hours to persuade opinion formers how cycling can contribute to their own agendas. Her willingness to work with a large number of people, from a wide range of backgrounds, has helped raise the profile of cycling in Colchester. She has a positive outlook, and lots of energy to help overcome some of the more sceptical sectors of our community, and show them how cycling can help them.
SOUTH WEST LONDON BEGINNERS GROUP CTC Volunteer/Voluntary Group of the Year 2004 for London
CTC Beginners started in 1996 because fear of traffic was preventing people from cycling. Twelve CTC members lad rides in and from Nonsuch Park, Cheam, Surrey to show children beginners and adults how easily traffic could be avoided or safely negotiated and to encourage families to enjoy the rewards of cycling together for fun, good health and the environment.
On Saturday afternoons in 2004 more than 40, new and more experienced, cycled with the group including parents wanting their children as young as 7 to be taken on the road. Their rota ensures a choice of rides, each group being in the care of a leader and backmarker. There are about 20 willing leaders, some of whom joined as true beginners and all offer to newcomers friendly advice on position, roadcraft, gears and equipment as required. Many of the leaders started as beginners with the group.
Last year there were Beginners tours abroad and six of the group competed in the Dieppe Raid and brought home a large trophy.
DES RADFORD CTC Volunteer of the Year 2004 for Wales
Des Radford, now retired, is a founder member of the Swansea and West DA and former DA secretary and a member of the CTC Cymru national committee.
Besides his involvement in CTC activities, Des has been involved with the local council as Right to Ride representative, campaigning for cyclists as a member of a local group Wheel-Rights
After handing over the DA secretary post, Des decided to develop a new section within the DA the Touring and Audux section. This has enabled him to encourage and achieve and increase in membership and the number of members participating in Audax and Touring. During 2004 Des has surpassed himself setting up and leading a wide ranging programme for this new section including:
- Organising new Audax events in the Swansea area
- Leading a cycle tour to Ireland
- CTC Welsh Festival of Cycling ride leader
- Developing participation and membership by producing a local poster that he distributed throughout the area including doctors surgeries and libraries
- Co-ordinated and communicated a full programme of rides twice-weekly throughout the year.
As a result of increased Audax participation, the DA has leaped 10 to 15 positions in the DATC competition
VIRGINIA MASON CTC Volunteer of the Year 2004 for South East England
Virginia Mason was the founding Chair of the East Hampshire Cyclists' Forum. During her term she persuaded East Hampshire District Council to financially support the Forum.
Prior to her standing down as Chairwoman she had started a major project in cycling or walking all proposed/possible cycle routes in the District. This required assessing the routes and alternatives plus putting forward new proposals. She attended GIS training and produced computer generated maps for the entire plan. This document is over 160 pages long and is already providing to be an invaluable aid as planners seek developer contributions.
This culminated this January in the publication by the Council of an approved plan for the District. The Plan is in both paper and disc format and Hampshire County Council officers have stated that the new Cycle Plan is a model of good practice. This is an outstanding instance of co-operation between the Council and cyclists.
During this time Virginia also attended the A3 Hindhead Inquiry speaking for the cyclists needs in a way that was well received by the Inquiry for both its detail and research.
GRAHAM BRODIE CTC Volunteer of the Year 2004 for South West England
Graham Brodie received his award for long term commitment to the Devon DA and the outstanding level achieved in 2004 in the use of the internet to promote the DA, CTC, Audax and other cycling interests. His websites and photography are resource from local to national level.
In 2000 Graham created the imaginative Devon DA website and the South West Audax website. These sites have 1000's of hits, and local and national CTC enjoy the inevitable benefits of greater profile.
In 2004 Graham and his son Ben cycled from John o'Groats to Lands End over three weeks. Graham uploaded stories of his adventures a few times a day on his new website. Hundreds of hits resulted.
Over the last few years Graham has become an increasingly prolific photographer, regularly appearing in The Highwayman, the CTC magazine 'Cycle' and in the Audax magazine. These activities increase the feel-good factor for the section and DA, but equally they promote the activities of a geographically isolated DA.
He has also been a mainstay of the Torbay section and has organised events and rides every year. He has organised an Audax weekend every year since the late 1980's, introducing many to the pleasures of cycling in Devon.
Highly Commended certificates were also awarded to the following outstanding individuals
- Sue Coles – Hampshire - South East England
- Ron Carlton – Cheltenham - South West England
- Paul Truscott – South East England
- Wlll Bramhill – Colchester - East of England

ARP Neighbor Cache Fingerprinter is a tool that provides a mechanism for remote operating system detection by extrapolating characteristics of the target system's underlying neighbor cache and general ARP behavior. Given the non-existence of any standard specification for how the neighbor cache should behave, several differences in network stack implementations can be used for unique identification. The main disadvantage of this tool versus traditional fingerprinting is that because it's based on a Layer 2 protocol instead of a Layer 3 protocol, the target machine that is being tested must reside on the same Ethernet broadcast domain (usually the same physical network).
AS2Secure is a PHP library that allows you to send and receive AS2 (Applicability Statement 2) messages from partners. The project is split into two parts: a client to send one or more documents to a partner and a server to receive one or more documents from a partner. Its main features are asyncronous and syncronous MDN, partner setup, digital signatures, message encryption, secure transport (using OpenSSL), support for SSL client authentication, and multiple attachments (AS2 1.2).
AT-Project is an Eclipse plugin for change management of IT projects. It handles bugs, tasks, and changes according to the product structure and issues of a software development project. It helps to track code file changes related to project configuration items. The client-server version improves collaboration. Other features include user management, portfolios, and reporting.
The ATA over Ethernet Tools are intended for use in conjunction with an ATA over Ethernet (AoE) driver for a Linux 2.6 kernel, called "aoe". The tools perform simple tasks like listing available devices, triggering device discovery, and restricting the network interfaces on which AoE is performed.
The ATK Framework is a PHP business framework. It is targeted at developers who wish to focus on business logic instead of coding HTML. ATK provides a complete framework that requires only small amounts of code to get usable applications, while maintaining full flexibility. ATK has a model driven approach, but is 100% customizable.
A friendly task manager.
A flexible I/O tester/benchmarker.

Rubbernecking: The Train Wreck of Integrity
My beloved and I were talking to a friend the other day when the topic of the 2012 election came up; we three range from being repulsed-by to highly-skeptical-of the notion that social progress can come from a violence based hierarchical institution deriving its powers from a corporate oligarchy.
Nevertheless, our friend reported being grimly interested by the presidential electoral process, the cultural dynamics revealed and the narratives surrounding the spectacle. I am drawn to the dark process in a similar manner. While I don't endorse any aspect of the imperial corporate theocracy, I can't help but be fascinated by–as one example among many–the moral wreckage of the political sycophantic class as they attempt to bend reality with pseudo-reason to indicate the superiority of their preferred ruling party.
I come to the apolitical position from the left. In my experience, most rank-and-file progressives believe the function of government to be something along those lines of uplifting and empowering human beings, protecting them from violence and helping them recover from catastrophic events. The policy staples around these abstract goals are socially libertarian in the personal realm; anti-war, anti-prison, anti-empire, anti-corporate and pro-human in the political realm.
With the political season upon us, 15 months out from the election, the political lackeys of the democrat-aspect of the ruling class are having trouble herding the rank-and-file progressives into their reelection effort.
For whatever psychological failing on my part, I can't stop reading their attempts to alternately lure and beat their one-time supporters back into the fold. It hits the same sweet-spot for me as watching theologians doing n-dimensional mental gymnastics to prove the inevitability of their god's/worldview's existence.
These efforts are impressive at first because the establishment propaganda has to paint rampant corporatism, endless global war, overflowing prisons as matching exactly that which the voting progressive cares about: peace, human dignity, and justice.
Since, no matter the intellect of the authors, this approach fails on targets who've retained the ability to Google or otherwise access anything other than American mainstream media; the effort then devolves into incoherent screaming about the danger of policies worse yet than those that are being put in place by the current regime. Voting for a third party, or heaven forfend, not voting at all puts a reluctant progressive into the camp of the childish, the naive, the selfish, and the irresponsible.
On top of this circus, this election cycle has an extra-fun twist. Since the late 19th century, Texas congressperson Ron Paul has been providing the catch-all for the principled political right that Ralph Nader and Dennis Kucinich supply for the principled political left. These are the most potent and potentially revolutionary wings of still-engaged people in society; they can't be allowed to float away from the established political institutions. One or two representatives are allowed to sit in congress or run for president thereby providing a thread of plausibility that the system can be improved "from the inside."
Ron Paul is against foreign wars across the board, against imperialism, against the war on drugs, and against federal "protection of marriage," etc. and must be, I guess, freaking out the democratic machine a little bit. It sounds like, from the blog chatter, there are progressives who are "being tricked" into supporting Ron Paul.
If they are supporting Ron Paul, then they have been tricked. Ron Paul can't change anything any more than Barack Obama could. It's impossible to turn an organization against the purpose for which it exists.
But why would democratic machine parts care that Ron Paul is running in the Republican primary? Wouldn't their time be better spent doubling down on ridiculing Rick Perry's idiocy or Mitt Romney's magical underpants, or some aspect of a candidate who might actually win the Republican nomination?
The only thing I can figure is that it's simply uncomfortable to have his wildly popular positions in the political discourse without a democratic counterpart. In 2008, Ron Paul was easy for the left-o-sphere to ignore because they had Kucinich to point to as their principled anti-war candidate and once he was gone, Ron Paul was as well.
This time around, everyone who watches this garbage[1] only gets to see republican candidates and compare them to the legacy of the incumbent democrat. When the sole anti-war voice is Ron Paul and he's also against the drug war, etc., it creates an uncomfortable level of cognitive dissonance that may cause right-thinking lefties to give up on the system and look elsewhere for social progress. Any efforts made in this direction reveal that the state is the violent defender of social stagnation–which is the realization that all state PR and the electoral process itself is intended to obfuscate.
The democratic vote-rustlers have to associate the anti-war, anti-drug war, pro-human stance itself with racism, homophobia, misogyny and any other label a progressive voter would be mortified to have applied to them. This may work against the truly psychologically feeble for whom the badge of "progressive" is a part of his/her identity. For an increasing number of people being called a racist for opposing war or for questioning the justice of the largest prison-state in the world will serve to make the nature of the nation-state and its toady mouth pieces that much clearer.

We've also got Courtney Love tricking on Lindsay Lohan's turf and Joe Jonas sending up the signal for gay Batman.

Colombian Ministry of Health Will Not Issue Compulsory License for Important Antiretroviral Medicine
Peter Maybarduk, Essential Action
June 3, 2009
The Colombian ministry of health has decided not to declare access to HIV/AIDS medicine lopinavir + ritonavir a matter of public interest. The ministry's decision halts government consideration of a compulsory license request, initiated in July 2008, that would introduce price-lowering competition with Abbott's Kaletra.
Colombian networks of people living with HIV/AIDS are criticizing the health ministry's process in considering the request – which seems to have deeply engaged Abbott while excluding treatment advocacy groups and the organizations that filed the request – and are describing the decision as a missed opportunity to work toward the U.N. Millennium Development Goals.
The government argues insurers are required to provide Kaletra to those who need it, and so price is not a primary factor impeding access. But Kaletra's high price passes on unnecessary costs to consumers, taxpayers and people living with HIV/AIDS, and diverts healthcare investments from critical priorities – for example, access to other needed medicines and universal HIV/AIDS coverage. Colombian civil society groups also note high medicine prices exacerbate inefficiencies and failures in the health and insurance systems, and make it too expensive to find alternatives when coverage failures do occur – therefore prices do impede access to treatment.
The decision also follows a government order establishing maximum prices for Kaletra at $1,067 per person, per year for the public sector, and $1,591 for the private sector, down from around $3,400 and representing average price reductions around 54% - 68%. This price ceiling is a direct result of the compulsory license request, and according to government figures will save the healthcare system about $10.2 million U.S. per year.
Price, then, clearly does matter to the Colombian government – just not enough to challenge Abbott's monopoly. At least, in the ministry's words, "for the moment."
The reductions are significant, represent an overdue challenge to Abbott's pricing practices, and signal a positive shift in civil society groups' ability to influence health policy.
But the health ministry seems to be treating monopoly price reduction as a substitute for competition. It is inadequate in this regard. New Clinton Foundation agreements with three generics firms offer LPV/r for $470, and Peru recently obtained LPV/r from Eske Group – a Cipla affiliate – for the low price of $396. Colombia will continue to pay considerably more than a competitive market would bear. Further, Colombia's new public sector price – roughly equivalent to Abbott's monopoly price in other regional markets – applies to only a small percentage of Colombia's market (possibly, it seems, even less than 8%). In practice, Colombia will continue to pay more than its neighbors, even those that share the dilemma of an Abbott monopoly.
We've heard no official word as to whether Abbott has agreed to sell at Colombia's new price. Competition remains the only way Colombia can access the far better generics prices, and ensure prices continue to fall with time. Deep cost savings enable health programs to scale up treatment.
To that end, the Colombian HIV/AIDS groups have called for supervision of savings obtained through the price reduction, and concomitant investments in sectors of the medicines provision system most prone to failure.
Colombian treatment advocates richly deserve congratulations, and thanks, for significantly reducing Abbott's prices and shaking up Latin America healthcare politics. They're not content with this, though – the groups are already investigating avenues of appeal and further proposals to introduce generic competition.
Below, I've pasted a Scrip News article (in English) on the ministry's decision. Note the Scrip article states, "INVIMA, the medicines regulator, rejected applications from Ranbaxy and Focus Pharmaceuticals to register generic versions of the combination product." It's worth mentioning INVIMA stated its reason for keeping the generics off the market was Abbott's claimed patent. But Colombia has no linkage provision in its law – marketing approval in Colombia should, by law, be a pure assessment of safety and efficacy, separate from any private patent disputes. The pharmaceutical industry's monopoly politics are touching an agency where they do not belong.
The Colombian civil society groups' analysis and press release (in Spanish) can be found here:
An archive of articles on the compulsory licensing request (in Spanish) can be found here:
Previous Essential Action statements on the Colombia case are available here, here, here, and here.
We have on file the Colombian health ministry's decision (Resolución 001444) and a number of other documents relevant to the license request. We will look into posting these online. In the interim, please contact us to obtain documents, and with any questions.
Thank you,

Essential Action
Colombia says no to Kaletra compulsory licence
01 June 2009
Francesca Bruce
The Colombian government will not be declaring Abbott's antiretroviral Kaletra (lopinavir plus ritonavir) to be of public interest, leaving the patent on the product intact until 2016. Civil society has accused the government of putting politics first.
The decision comes soon after the government set a price ceiling for Kaletra (scripnews.com, May 13th, 2009). NGOs had been pushing for the government to declare the drug to be of public interest and to issue a compulsory licence, claiming that Kaletra's high price barred access to the drug (scripnews.com, July 29th, 2009).However, the government rejected this, largely on the grounds that all patients who required Kaletra were covered by some sort of health insurance and did not have to pay for the medicine. This was also one of the main arguments put forward by Abbott, according to the government in its justification for the decision.
Antiretrovirals (ARVs) are included on Colombia's essential medicines list, and all health insurers – public and private – must offer these drugs. However, in Colombia there is no single ARV purchaser and different public and private institutions compete within the national health system. This leads to wide price discrepancies throughout the country, say civil society organisations.
The cost of the drug creates barriers to access, while having health insurance does not automatically give access to the ARV, maintains RECOLVIH, which represents the organisations petitioning for a compulsory licence. For example, problems arise when HIV/AIDS patients lose their jobs and also when there are delays in provision. The high level of stigma and bureaucracy involved in accessing ARVs can also deter patients from following their regime.
The government also went on to say that the main problems hindering access were to do with failures within the health system, including reaching vulnerable populations or providing adequate diagnosis. Such issues did not merit declaring the drug to be of public interest, it said.
Added to this, the financial impact of declaring the drug to be of public interest was unclear and difficult to calculate, the government said. However, this was poor reasoning, Peter Maybadurk, a spokesperson for the NGO Essential Action, told Scrip. "The government has decided not to save more money, but to protect Abbott's monopoly," he said. Although RECOLVIH estimates that the price ceiling will save the government around $10 million each year, greater savings could have been made through introducing competition, he said. "Competition could lead to even lower prices, which could free up more resources to eliminate other barriers," he added. RECOLVIH accuses the government of ignoring societal needs and basing its decision on politics. Colombia is in the middle of negotiating a free trade agreement with the EU, alongside Peru and Ecuador. It is also waiting for the US to ratify a bilateral FTA.
Moreover, the civil society groups behind the move were not given the chance to participate in the process, said Mr Maybadurk. "During the whole process, which began a year ago, the government never allowed HIV/AIDS patients to participate in the negotiation process to arrive at the price recently negotiated," says RECOLVIH. Abbott's involvement in the process is unclear.
Abbott declined to comment.Kaletra is patented in Colombia until December 2016. INVIMA, the medicines regulator, rejected applications from Ranbaxy and Focus Pharmaceuticals to register generic versions of the combination product.

Ok so I had permission by Crimsonnavy to change the badge icons, but Jazzi wanted a forum to be made for Hstar and Bullet to know about it. Does anyone oppose this or have any opinion they want to state? Technology Wizard · talk
- I didn't "want a forum to be made for Hstar and Bullet to know about it." I wanted it to be discussed with other admins and have the gun not jumped. I personally think the badges are fine, and that we should not change them, as it gives users more reason to fluff edit for badges. But if we must change them, I think we should use the badges from the games to be used as the images, considering that they are badges. – Jäzzi 01:21, September 5, 2011 (UTC)

Thursday's issue of the Chiefland Citizen has a snapshot of the candidates in county races as of Tuesday and totals on their latest fundraising and spending.
Judging from the early reports this will be an expensive election. That could explain why so many candidates are going the petition method to get on the ballot.
The Citizen has been busy running candidate announcements and expect a flurry at the petition deadline in May and the pay-as-you-file deadline in June.
A new feature on the Citizen website is an ELECTIONS 2012 link under the NEWS link at the top of the page.
All the published candidate announcements are there, my earlier column on a few rules that would be good to live by for campaigns is there and coverage of the candidates will also be there.
The information on active candidates and races will stay up through the November election.
The staff at the Citizen hope readers will find the information helpful.
And while we are on the subject, Levy County Supervisor of Elections Connie Asbell has unveiled a new votelevy.com website design that is stunning and packed with information.
I know she is hoping you will find it useful too.

Exactly like they announced their divorce on a late Friday afternoon, Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt bring you "The Pretend Spencer is Hocking a Sex Tape Without Heidi's Consent Even Though Everyone Knows How These Deals Work By Now" news story everyone saw coming a mile away. After Heidi's balloon-tits. TMZ reports:
Vivid honcho Steven Hirsch tells us, "I just got off the phone with Spencer Pratt about a sex tape with Heidi Montag."
He continues, "We are in early negotiations to possibly come to terms for a deal."
Spencer has told a friend that the alleged tape "makes Kim Kardashian look like an amateur."
I hope Vivid enjoys ten minutes of Spencer banging a mannequin while covering his mouth and talking in a falsetto voice because that's exactly what they're about to get. Although to his credit, there's absolutely no way anyone will be able to tell the difference. The kid's sharp, I'll give him that.
VIVID EXEC #1: I don't know, man. I mean, what do you think?
VIVID EXEC #2: It's impossible to tell. No, wait, her head fell off.
VIVID EXEC #1: And?
VIVID EXEC #2: …. Good point.

Believe it or not, there's actually a name for when you can't get that great/grating song out of your head.
It's called an earworm, a term popularized by James Kellaris, a marketing researcher at the University of Cincinnati. Kellaris says an earworm is a portion of a song that repeats compulsively within one's mind.
Kellaris' 2001 study concluded that everyone gets earworms, some people more than others. Not much more to it than that, really.
Hey, don't blame me. Blame Kellaris. Maybe if he wasn't humming "Yummy, Yummy, Yummy" to himself constantly while he was writing the dang thing he'd have a few more facts.
Oh well, now to the point of this article. Here is a completely random list of five songs that can produce massive earworms. Massive. So watch out.
Don't like the list? Want to complain about it? No big deal. I love you just they way you are ...
No. 5: "Just the Way You Are" by Billy Joel
Once upon a time, a knucklehead in the office was doing research on a nifty feature entitled "What Sesame Street Character Are You?" While scanning the Web, he came across an Oscar The Grouch clip on YouTube.
A young Billy Joel was singing this tune to the garbage can guy. "Don't go changing to try to please me," Joel warbled to Oscar. "I love you just the way you are."
The knucklehead had to listen to the song at least 15 times to get over it. He never really did, and now has the entire Billy Joel Greatest Hits 1 & 2 CD's burned on his iTouch.
He doesn't even like Billy Joel.
As for the song, it reached No. 3 in the U.S. and won the 1978 Grammy for Record of the Year and Song of the Year. Joel says he wrote it for his first wife, Elizabeth Weber. That's pre-Christie Brinkley if you're scoring at home.
No. 4: "Don't Stop Believin'" by Journey
This one most famously accompanied the ending of arguably the best TV show ever: "The Sopranos."
Tony, Carmella and A.J. are eating in a diner. Meadow tries to park the car. You think they're all going to die in a bloodbath. This Journey staple is blaring.
At "Don't Stop..." the screen goes to black, and the viewers get zero closure to the Mafia drama. The song is DRILLED into your brain in the most "HUH?" ending in TV history.
The song was also the theme song of the Chicago White Sox' 2005 World Series run, with Steve Perry even belting it out at the victory parade.
As for its place on the charts, it reached No. 9 on Billboard way back in 1981.
It's also one of those rare songs where the chorus isn't heard until it's almost over. The actual words "Don't stop believin'" are revealed with 50 seconds left in the tune. Talk about a delayed earworm.
No. 3: "Come and Get It" by Badfinger
Badfinger didn't have that many mega-hits. But they did produce a mega-earwormer called "Come And Get It," which was penned by Beatle Paul McCartney. Bet ya didn't know that.
As the story goes, McCartney gave Badfinger the song in 1969 as long as they produced it exactly as he instructed.
It was a no-brainer, and Badfinger (at that time called The Iveys) was soon crooning, "If you want it ... here it is come and get it ..."
The single made it to No. 4 on the charts in the U.S., and was the opening theme for the movie "The Magic Christian," starring Ringo Starr. Didn't see that one? Neither did the rest of the world.
As for the original McCartney "Come And Get It" demo, it was released on the "Beatles Anthology 3" CD. It's a bit slower, and you wonder to yourself, "Who are the Beatles covering here?" Answer: Badfinger.
No. 2: "Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Ole Oak Tree" by Dawn featuring Tony Orlando
It happened while watching CNN during the daytime (which is quite dangerous if you don't want to see dopey advertising).
On the screen: a svelte Tony Orlando, declaring he had lost a zillion pounds through some weight-loss thing and now sporting a 34-inch waist. Likely story.
Unlikely story? Tony's lead vocals on the uber-earworm "Tie A Yellow Ribbon Round The Ole Oak Tree." That 1973 number out of nowhere topped the U.S. charts for four weeks. It's also No. 37 on Billboard's list of Greatest Songs Of All Time.
Tony-O doesn't get top billing, though, because the song was released by "Dawn, featuring Tony Orlando."
Been three long years since you've last heard it? One listen and it'll stick with you for another three.
That's not hard to believe.
Thirty-four inch waist? Right.
No. 1: "Free Bird" by Lynyrd Skynyrd
Tunelessly singing "I'm as freeee as a biiiird now ..." as annoyingly as you can to yourself is one thing.
The serious earworm is when you put into words the signature guitar solo to yourself. It sounds something like this: "deer to deer, deer, deer, deer, deer, deer, diddly, deer, deer, deer." Or something like that.
It's total southern nuthouse territory. But that's Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Free Bird" for ya. Earworming it this very second. And this bird cannot chay-a-yange! Lord help me, I cannot chay-a-yange!
As for the charts, the 1974 song only peaked at No. 19 on Billboard.
No. 19? Just goes to show that the classics aren't always No. 1. But try to stop humming it. That bird you cannot change.
