Chesterfield MP Toby Perkins has been left stunned after plans to transfer the town centre's Post Office operation into a WH Smith's store has been given the go-ahead.
Post Office Ltd confirmed on Tuesday that the crown branch operation on Market Place will close on March 26 and be transferred to the nearby retailer's on The Pavements on March 27 with promises of extended hours and access seven-days-a-week.
But Mr Perkins is concerned the Post Office will be operating in a smaller space with a reduced number of service points and with staff working under WH Smith's new reduced terms and conditions.
He said: "I'm far from convinced that this move is in the best interests of customers. The number of service points at the new outlet will be six, reduced from the offering of twelve in the current building with staff employed by WH Smith's rather than directly by the Post Office on lesser terms and conditions."
Mr Perkins claims there has been "little appetite" among the nineteen staff at the Post Office branch to move to The Pavements centre.
CWU union representative David Bowmaker also raised concerns the move will lead to fewer counter windows during peak times and that staff under WH Smith's will only have a minimum wage and redeployment options could force them out of the area.
Post Office Ltd stated Chesterfield is one of about 70 Crown Post Offices earmarked for franchise to ensure branches are sustainable and no longer reliable on Government funding. It plans to invest about £70m in around 300 Crowns to ensure viability because they have been operating at a £40m loss.
Chesterfield Post Office is one of 367 Crown branches that are directly owned by Post Office Ltd which claims the vast majority of Post Office branches - over 10,000 - are successfully run by carefully selected third parties within retail premises.
Post Office Ltd claims there will be no compulsory redundancies and it is willing to help with transfers to the new employer or redeployment.
Roger Gale, Crown Network General Manager, said: "We are committed to keeping a Post Office branch in Chesterfield and to maintaining the same levels of service for our customers. We believe the best way for us to do this is to change the way we operate the branch, so following the move it will be run by WHSmith High Street Ltd rather than by us directly."
Chesterfields' new Post Office will have six serving positions and offer the same products and services with the exclusion of an external cash machine, according to Post Office Ltd.
Mr Perkins also criticised the Post Office's consultation as a "sham" which failed to consider public opinion.
He said: "It seems the 'public consultation' has had little or no input in the Post Office's current plans and was little more than a PR exercise.
"Once again, it seems Chesterfield is losing out on a vital public service. I will be speaking to them urgently to alleviate constituents' concerns and to learn just how the public consultation could possibly have led to this."
Post Office Ltd claims its research shows customer satisfaction levels are as high for customers visiting franchises.
It stated it has carefully considered feedback and is confident the new branch will be suitably located and WHSmith will meet needs and deliver an excellent service.
Post Office Ltd is also proposing to move Baslow Post Office to the Spar and Matlock's Crown branch has been earmarked for a move.

LAST SEASON: 37-29-16, 90 points. Missed playoffs by finishing ninth in Western Conference.
COACH: Bob Hartley, first season.
ADDED: D Dennis Wideman, LW Jiri Hudler, C Roman Cervenka.
LOST: C Olli Jokinen, RW David Ross, D Scott Hannan, RW Guillaume Desbiens, RW Tom Kostopoulous.
PLAYER TO WATCH: Alex Tanguay, who played for Hartley a decade ago in Colorado, will be more familiar with the coach than his teammates. If he can click on the top line with Jarome Iginla, the Flames may have a puncher's chance.
OUTLOOK: Despite the addition of Cervenka, the Flames should be weak enough on defense to keep G Miikka Kiprusoff busy. If Tanguay and other forwards can click with Iginla, they may have a chance at catching lightning in a bottle, but in a tough division with the formidable Avalanche and Canucks, they would do well to nick the last playoff spot.
LAST SEASON: 41-35-6, 88 points. Missed postseason.
COACH: Joe Sacco, 4th season with Avalanche, 114-109-23.
ADDED: RW P.A. Parenteau, C John Mitchell, D Greg Zanon
LOST: C Peter Mueller, C Jay McClement, C Joakim Lindstrom.
PLAYER TO WATCH: Gabriel Landeskog. The Avalanche believe so highly in the 20-year-old that they made him the youngest captain in NHL history. Landeskog is coming off a stellar season in which he won the Calder Trophy as the league's top rookie.
OUTLOOK: The Avs will have plenty of scoring punch - even more if they can sign restricted free-agent center Ryan O'Reilly - but to return to the playoffs for the first time in three seasons will largely depend on the play of goaltender Semyon Varlamov. He had a 2.59 goals-against average in his first season in Colorado after being acquired from Washington for a first-round pick. The Avs expect big things out of the young netminder.

The latest issue of Retro Gamer says that GameCube games will be available on the Wii U Virtual Console. Is this an instance like where Black Ops 2 was revealed for the system by a Nintendo magazine months before it was actually revealed?
We'll have to wait to find out.
Well this is going to obvious. Of course they are going to do it because WiiU isn't backup compatible with Gamecube disc. I would like to buy Mario Sunshine again on the WiiU virtual console or finally play veautiful Joe because it would be available on the virtual console. I see a bright future for Nintendo despite the media.
Will be cool if they are given at least an upscale feature.
Would like to see my GCN fire emblem in HD.. Would be nice

Jonathan Steinberg - Bismarck: A Life
In the late 19th century statesman Otto von Bismarck unified Germany while embodying everything brutal and ruthless about Prussian culture. Biographer Jonathan Steinberg allows Bismarck's friends and foes to tell the story of this complex giant: a hypochondriac with the constitution of an ox and a brutal tyrant who could easily shed tears.
Steinberg is the Walter H. Annenberg Professor of Modern European History at the University of Pennsylvania.
The event is co-sponsored by Adam Starr, the Lawrence D. Starr Family Foundation, and The University of Pennsylvania's Alumni Club.

Experts predict heatwave
LOOK out locals: Weather experts believe a heatwave is to hit the Northern Rivers over the next week, so prepare your fans, inflatable swimming pools, ice-cold refreshments, thongs and singlets!
Dick Whitaker, chief meteorologist at The Weather Channel, said it was set to get very hot in areas all around NSW, but the Northern Rivers was set to heat up considerably.
Both Weatherzone and The Weather Channel are predicting identical temperatures over the next few days, with today to hit 32 degrees Celsius, tomorrow and Saturday tottering to 33, while Sunday is set to hit a scorching 35 degrees.
Monday the temperature is set to inch back to 31, with Tuesday hitting 32, before Wednesday retreats slightly to a warm 28 degrees.
Weatherzone have predicted the UV index at 'Extreme' from today until Monday inclusive, so make sure you protect yourself from the sun with shade, covered clothing, hats, sunglasses and sunscreen.
And while the nights won't be as hot as the peak of daytime, Mr Whitaker said they're set to be "quite warm" even in the cover of darkness.
While thunderstorms aren't predicted, some showers may be plausible during the next week, said Mr Whitaker, while Saturday and Sunday meant to bring hot northerly winds at speeds of up to 25km/h.
Mr Whitaker said there was a "bit of a southerly change" going to come through on Sunday "which will cool it down a bit and bring an increase in cloud cover," he said.
3-day forecast
Today: 19-32, Few showers. Tomorrow: 19-33, Fine Sat: 20-33, Fine.
Today: 19-29, Few Showers. Tomorrow: 19-30, Fine. Sat: 20-29, Fine.

Roasted brussels sprouts, sweet potatoes, bacon and a sprinkling of Parmesan come together in irresistible ways to make this delicious side dish.
A side dish that may raise an eyebrow from even the most stubborn sprout hater. At least I like to think so.
Only because I was once one of them adamant haters. I'm still not a lover, but I'm halfway there.
Roasting the little cabbage heads and covering them with bacon and cheese changes everything.
While milkshakes bring boys to the yard. . . bacon brings everyone to the yard. You, me, the neighbor kids. . .
A simple treatment consisting of copious amounts of extra-virgin olive oil, thyme, sea salt and fresh black pepper help caramelize them to a beautiful brown color with fantastic flavor.
The naturally sweet potatoes counteract the bitterness of the sprouts and the crispy, chewy bacon and Parmesan cheese lends them the salty balance they crave.
You need these in your life because they are completely unforgettable and totally crave-able in a way vegetables have never been before.
They will easily steal the show from any entree.
Pinky swear.
- 1 container fresh baby or regular brussels sprouts (about 12 ounces)
- 2 big sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
- extra-virgin olive oil
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- sea or kosher salt and fresh black pepper
- 4 slices bacon
- 2 - 3 tablespoons fresh grated Parmesan cheese
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a large baking sheet or roasting pan generously with olive oil.
- Remove any tough outer leaves from the brussels sprouts and slice them in half, unless you are using baby ones, in that case leave them whole. Add to a large bowl along with the sweet potatoes, drizzle liberally with olive oil - about 2 tablespoons, sprinkle with thyme and season well with salt (about 1 teaspoon) and pepper.
- Toss with your hands rubbing the oil and spices into the vegetables and adding more olive oil if needed. Spread them out in one layer on the baking sheet and drizzle again lightly with olive oil.
- Bake about 25-30 minutes or until sweet potatoes are tender and brussels sprouts are lightly browned.
- Meanwhile cook bacon however you see fit, I like to put it in a separate baking pan and bake it about 12-15 minutes or until crispy. Drain on paper towels and crumble when cool enough to handle.
- Once the vegetables are cooked through sprinkle with Parmesan and bacon, toss and serve.

By Prashant Mehra
GANDHINAGAR, India (Reuters) - Fresh off his re-election as chief minister of the Indian state of Gujarat and amid expectations he could contend to be the next prime minister, Narendra Modi avoided talk of a bigger political future during a state investment event.
Still, Modi, one of India's most popular and divisive politicians, was the star of his "Vibrant Gujarat Summit," which featured a parade of corporate heavyweights as well as foreign officials who extolled the business-friendly state and Modi's leadership even as they mostly kept clear of politics.
"In Gujarat, we see a culture of implementation, reflecting the qualities of the chief minister," Cyrus Mistry, who recently succeeded Ratan Tata as head of the Tata Group, India's biggest business house, said from a stage he shared with Modi.
In one of Modi's biggest wins, in 2008 he convinced Tata Motors to build a factory in the state for its low-cost Nano after its plans to make the car in West Bengal were disrupted by farmers.
Last month, Modi's Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) won 115 of the state assembly's 182 seats against 61 for the Congress party, which heads a national government that has been beset by corruption scandals and presided over an economy on track this fiscal year for its slowest growth in a decade.
Modi appeared to downplay ambitions for higher office, making a point of inviting delegates to the next edition of the event in 2015. "When I gave a similar invitation in 2011, the media had mocked me saying I was yet to be re-elected and was already issuing invitations. This time, there is no such problem," he said in his closing remarks, delivered in Hindi.
Modi canceled a press conference planned for Saturday due to "urgent work," according to a text message from organizers.
Gujarat, with a long tradition of entrepreneurship, has been a magnet for industrial investment thanks in part to what is widely regarded as efficient state government, which stands in contrast to the red tape and unpredictability elsewhere in India that frustrate businesses and investors.
While Modi, 62, wins praise for that, critics have accused him of not doing enough to stop - or of even quietly encouraging - religious riots in 2002 that saw as many as 2,000 killed, most of them Muslims, which makes him a controversial choice for the BJP despite his star power.
India is due to hold national elections by 2014.
One of the few major executives in attendance to speak openly of Modi as candidate for prime minister was Sanjay Lalbhai, chairman of Arvind Ltd, a textile maker based in nearby Ahmedabad.
"We are dealing with him as the chief minister of Gujarat as of now, but I am sure he has the skills required at the national level also, the decisiveness, the leadership," he told Reuters.
Others lauding Modi included the billionaire Ambani brothers, whose Gujarat-born father founded Reliance Industries, India's most valuable company and operator of the world's biggest refinery, in the Gujarat city of Jamnagar.
"Gujarat has been the birthplace of India's greatest leaders. What all these men have said about leadership, Narendrabhai has practiced in his 10-year tenure as chief minister," Anil Ambani said, stopping short of expressing support for Modi as a potential prime minister, which he did in 2009.
Shekhar Iyer, senior associate editor at the Hindustan Times, said the presence of corporate heavyweights was a demonstration of industry support for Modi as a potential prime minister.
"That underlying support is always there for him, because he is seen as a kind of person who can get things done, and he understands industry," Iyer said.

5 minute guide to Ball State University Anthropology
Anthropology is the study of humankind in all times and places. A holistic discipline, anthropologists study every aspect of the human condition, including cultural, material, and biological topics. Areas of special concern include human origins, ethnicity, diversity, gender, race, class, environment, and global development.
Four subdisciplines form the anthropological perspective.
Anthropology provides a way of thinking about people in social groups and the way these groups function that has practical applications in many academic and professional fields.

We offer a major and minor in anthropology. as well as a Master's degree and have Master's link to our MA program page here:
Master degree.
Our experienced faculty and staff believe training should extend beyond the classroom. Through participation in departmental activities such as the Anthropology Club, faculty members and students regularly gather outside the classroom.
Each summer, the anthropology department offers an archaeological field school at a regional site in Indiana. Experiences in cultural anthropology are available through field trips and field studies to destinations in the United States and abroad.
We provide opportunities for immersive learning, real-world research, internships, and field studies. Our high-tech facilities, including the Applied Anthropology Laboratories, will allow you to gain valuable applied experiences and training in anthropology. You can use these experiences as résumé builders and for your own personal growth.
Anthropology faculty members specialize in the cultural anthropology, archaeology, and biological anthropology of the New and Old Worlds. Many of the faculty members have substantial experience in applied anthropology. Applied anthropology uses anthropological concepts and methods for problem-oriented, practical purposes in the contemporary world.
Cultural anthropologists in the department study Native American cultures in North America (Dr.Murray), Digital anthropology (Dr. Phillips) and Urban anthropology (Dr. Erickson). Archaeology faculty members study the prehistoric archaeology of the Midwest (Dr. Hill), and the historical archaeology of the eastern United States (Dr. Groover),.
Biological anthropologists in the department specialize in the bioarchaeology of the Southeast (Dr. Hogue).
The Department of Anthropology is housed in the Burkhardt Building. In addition to classrooms, offices, and a conference and seminar room, the department has a large, well-equipped archaeology facility. Students can gain experience in archaeological research, often while being paid, through working on field surveys, on excavations, and in the laboratory.

Six U.S. senators from West Coast states urged the Justice Department on Tuesday to conduct a refinery-by-refinery probe to determine the causes of punishing gasoline price spikes earlier this year.
"We are requesting a Department of Justice investigation of possible market manipulation and false reporting by oil refineries, which may have created a perception of a supply shortage, when in fact the refineries were still producing," said the letter sent to Attorney General Eric Holder.
Signing the petition were Sens. Barbara Boxer and Dianne Feinstein of California, Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley of Oregon, and Maria Cantwell and Patty Murray of Washington, all Democrats.
Their letter followed a mid-November report presented to a California state legislative committee by McCullough Research that used environmental data to show that refineries were making gasoline in May, during a period in which news reports said they were offline.
The McCullough findings, first reported by McClatchy, provoked controversy in West Coast states, where motorists were paying at least 50 cents more per gallon in May and October than motorists in the rest of the nation were. The McCullough report alleges there was production in May but stops short of the same accusation for October, the other spike period, as environmental data wasn't yet made public.
West Coast motorists were led to believe that the price spikes were tied to outages and production problems, but McCullough showed that inventories were building at a time when there were news reports, which refiners didn't dispute at the time, of possible supply shortages. That all happened as the price of crude oil, the key component needed to make gasoline, was falling.
Refiners dispute the allegations by McCullough Research and the six senators.
"The petroleum industry operates under a microscope of government regulation and provides enormous amounts of data to the appropriate state and federal agencies," said Tupper Hull, a spokesman for the Western States Petroleum Association, which represents the refiners.
"The industry has been subjected to dozens of investigations over the past 20 years, and all of them have determined that the dynamics of supply and demand are what determine the price of fuel. If the Department of Justice decides to conduct another investigation, we are confident they will reach the same conclusion."
Pointing to conclusions in a California Energy Commission market report, Hull added that "West Coast markets experienced real and demonstrable disruptions in supply during the summer and late fall. These unfortunate and unavoidable disruptions resulted in price spikes, which quickly abated when supplies were restored."

Now that she again is a resident of the Windy City, TNA Knockout Lisa Marie Varon, aka "Tara," recommends the following for those who want to get better acquainted with it:
1) Experience the food
"I recommend going to all the cultural food places like Greek Town and China Town. I'm a foodie. So you have to stop by the Squared Circle for burgers and high-end pizzas."
2) Go to a Cubs game
"Nothing like a Cubs game. I recommend getting seats behind the visiting team's dugout because I like to heckle; that's my favorite."
3) Take the double decker boat and bus tours.
"I took my father on one of those tours, just to do the tourist thing with him, and I can't tell you how much I appreciate Chicago now. I can't tell you what I've learned about the city, the architecture, the history. It's an amazing city."

modulator designed specifically for mobile and digital
camera and other digital video and imaging applications.
The P2779A reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) at
EMI of all clock dependent signals. The P2779A allows
significant system cost savings by reducing the number of
circuit board layers and shielding that are traditionally
required to pass EMI regulations.
The P2779A uses the most efficient and optimized
modulation profile approved by the FCC.
The P2779A modulates the output of a single PLL in order
to spread the bandwidth of a synthesized clock and, more
importantly, decreases the peak amplitudes of its
harmonics. This results in significantly lower system EMI
compared to the typical narrow-band signal produced by
oscillators and most frequency generators. Lowering EMI
by increasing a signal's bandwidth is called spread
spectrum clock generation.

Committee Opinion Number 664, June 2016
(Replaces Committee Opinion Number 321, November 2005)
ABSTRACT: One of the most challenging scenarios in obstetric care occurs when a pregnant patient refuses recommended medical treatment that aims to support her well-being, her fetus's well-being, or both. In such circumstances, the obstetrician–gynecologist's ethical obligation to safeguard the pregnant woman's autonomy may conflict with the ethical desire to optimize the health of the fetus. Forced compliance—the alternative to respecting a patient's refusal of treatment—raises profoundly important issues about patient rights, respect for autonomy, violations of bodily integrity, power diffe...
Committee Opinion Number 624, February 2015
Reaffirmed 2017
ABSTRACT: Cytology-based cervical cancer screening programs require a number of elements to be successful. Certain low-resource settings, like the U.S. Affiliated Pacific Islands, lack these elements. Implementing alternative cervical cancer screening strategies in low-resource settings can provide consistent, accessible screening opportunities.
Committee Opinion Number 578, November 2013
(Reaffirmed 2016. Replaces No. 395, January 2008)
ABSTRACT: Acknowledgment of the importance of patient autonomy and increased patient access to information, such as information on the Internet, has prompted more patient-generated requests for surgical interventions not traditionally recommended. Depending on the context, acceding to a request for a surgical option that is not traditionally recommended can be ethical. Decisions about acceding to patient requests for nontraditional surgical interventions should be based on strong support for patients' informed preferences and values; understood in the context of an interpretive conversation; ...

Want to know what it's like to have sex with Heidi Klum? Say no more.
The former supermodel recently spoke out about what she's like while doing the deed and why it's fun to get creative in the bedroom.
"Some people are more experimental in bed and others are more boring," she tells the February issue of Marie Claire. "If you are wild and crazy, bring it on so the other person is well aware that you have little devil horns that come out every once in a while."
In that case, Heidi's bodyguard-turned-boyfriend, Martin Kristen, is a lucky man!
The two have been dating since last fall, and back in November 2012, the Project Runway star admitted she's "in love" with her new beau. She's also putting her fashion expertise to good use in their relationship.
"It's good to make an effort to dress up sometimes," she says about enhancing her sexual escapades, "To do things outside of the norm."
But just because Heidi's keeping things spicy behind closed doors doesn't mean she's ready to walk down the aisle again. Since splitting from husband, Seal, in January 2012, the blonde beauty admits she'd rather not tie the knot for a second time.
"Maybe if I'm with someone for 15 or 20 years, and we [marry] in our old age as a fun thing to do...But I don't have the urgency anymore."

By Tom Hals
WILMINGTON, Delaware (Reuters) - Meetings without the chance for any back and forth, unreturned phone calls and brusque tactics. To opponents of Detroit's bankruptcy filing, Emergency Manager Kevyn Orr has utterly failed to negotiate with them.
But retired city workers, who are fighting to stop their pensions from being cut, and hope to stop Detroit's bankruptcy by claiming in court that Orr didn't engage in good-faith negotiations, are likely out of luck.
To be sure, Orr would have done himself a favor if he'd done more negotiating, legal experts say, but his cursory approach to talks won't derail the city's bid to go into bankruptcy.
In fact, Detroit more than meets the prevailing legal standards and Orr should have no difficulty persuading a federal judge to allow the bankruptcy to go ahead, they said.
"It's highly unlikely that creditors will be able to block Detroit's eligibility," said Patrick Darby of Bradley Arant Boult Cummings. Darby, who represents Jefferson County, Alabama, in its bankruptcy, is not involved in Detroit.
In municipal bankruptcies, unlike corporate cases, cities and towns must prove they are eligible to go into bankruptcy before they can get court protection from their creditors.
Municipalities have several paths they can choose to be granted bankruptcy protection, including proving that they negotiated in good faith with its creditors.
In Detroit's case, the numerous creditors and creditor groups have cried foul.
Instead of negotiations, the city held what creditors say were more like presentations. Creditors sat in an auditorium and wrote questions on index cards, which they passed on to Detroit's lawyers from Jones Day.
And, for example, Syncora Guarantee Inc, which insured millions of dollars of the city's bonds, complained in court documents it was unable to get Orr or members of his team on the phone.
David Skeel, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania Law School, said the standard for proving good-faith in negotiations was relatively low. While it probably would require more effort than one mass meeting of creditors "you don't have to go to the ends of the earth with every creditor," he said.
The city, though, has a much stronger argument on its side.
Under a change to Chapter 9 bankruptcy law that was made while New York was in difficulties in the 1970s, municipalities can instead argue that good-faith negotiations are impractical.
Detroit has made this argument.
"Despite the ultimate impracticability of such negotiations, the City nevertheless attempted, where possible, to negotiate with its various creditor constituencies in good faith," Detroit said in court papers.
Because municipal bankruptcies are rarer than corporate ones, there are fewer precedents. But Detroit can point to a ruling from June involving the California city of Stockton to make its case.
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Klein in Sacramento ruled that even if Stockton had not negotiated in good faith, it was still eligible for bankruptcy because such negotiations would have been impractical given it had 2,400 retirees.
By comparison, Detroit estimates it has well over 100,000 creditors, many of which it still has not identified.
Doug Mintz, a Chapter 9 specialist with the law firm Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe in Washington, said he was unaware of a municipality ever failing to win the argument when it said that negotiations were impractical.
The change in the law stemming from New York City's financial crisis almost 40 years ago, was adopted for just such a situation as Detroit now finds itself in, experts say.
In a report in 1975, the U.S. Congress said Chapter 9 was "hopelessly archaic and unworkable for all but the smallest" entities. It then adopted the changes making the eligibility requirements more flexible.
In addition to the requirement on negotiations, Detroit must also pass four other tests: The city has to prove it is a municipality, that it was authorized to file, that it is insolvent and that it is seeking bankruptcy to implement a plan to deal with its obligations.
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Steven Rhodes has not set a date for an eligibility hearing. The hearing is likely to include many days of testimony including expert witnesses. The eligibility hearing for Stockton's far less complex case ran three days.
Once it is found eligible for bankruptcy, the harder task for Detroit and Orr is to find a way to get past the current war of words with creditors.
"It's kind of hard to get that genie back in the bottle once everyone has drawn their weapons," Skeel said.

It's amazing how many people can be outraged by Google's Desktop 3 compromising their privacy without having used it. Speculation is flying around the net about how a search company wants to steal all your information, but far fewer people have really evaluated the feature. When searching for other people's experiences with SAC, I found one thread on a newsgroup explaining how to install it and literally dozens of people asking how to disable it. The most informative articles are ones that copy and paste Google's press statements and help pages.
Don't get me wrong, there is a loss of some privacy—which Google even admits to—but most people's concerns are overstated and based on hype. A great example of zealots enraged by SAC is the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF). They called for a complete boycott of the software:
If you use the Search Across Computers feature and don't configure Google Desktop very carefully—and most people won't—Google will have copies of your tax returns, love letters, business records, financial and medical files, and whatever other text-based documents the Desktop software can index. (Source: EFF)
As we'll see once I start showing how Google Desktop works, this state of alarm is simply ridiculous and uninformed. They do make a good point eventually, which I'll address later. Another company, who is a little less silly, is Gartner. They say they software is a security risk for businesses:
The risk to enterprises, according to Gartner, lies in how this shared information is pooled by Google. The data is transferred to a remote server, where it is stored and can then be shared between users for up to 30 days.
Gartner said in a report on Thursday that the "mere transport (of data) outside the enterprise will represent an unacceptable security risk to many enterprises," as intellectual property could be transported out of the business. (Source: CNet)
Again, the risk is severely overrated. The article says the information can be shared between users, when in fact it cannot. It can only be accessed by one Google user. Equally damaging internet technology already exists and is in common use. Read on to see why.
{mospagebreak title=Installation and Setup of SAC}
After downloading and running the installation file, Google asks us to do some initial configuration. Keep in mind, the EFF says that most users have to be super-careful to not have it turned on.
Well look at that. The Search Across Computers option is turned off by default. In fact, you have to activate two (2) check boxes and also enter your Google account information to make it work. I don't think this is very cryptic either. In case you can't read the screenshot, here's Google's text under the checkbox:
(This feature stores your indexed files on Google Desktop servers for copying to your other computers. Learn more about this feature or our Privacy Policy.)
That's clear as far as I'm concerned, and it links to the SAC information page, which explains it in even more detail. No, you do not have to be careful at all to have the feature turned off. You really have to go out of your way to turn it on and associate it with your Google account. I'm not sure if the EFF has an agenda against Google, but they just lost credibility to me. So, I avoided activating it right away, then finished the installation and went into the Desktop preferences.
These are the general indexing preferences. It's very simple to remove file types from being indexed (for example, just uncheck Excel). You can also exclude areas of your computer or the internet from the index. I excluded SEO Chat from the web history index as an example. However, excluding folders of my computer did not work and may have been buggy. I wasn't very worried about it, and it must work for other users.
Since I didn't turn on Search Across Computers before, I decided to do it in its settings tab. Once again, you have to go out of your way to activate it, and you'll see Google's warnings.
Users must define what gets uploaded. If you select Web history, it uploads a browsing cache from Internet Explorer, Firefox, Netscape, and Mozilla. It doesn't look like they are Opera friendly. If you select Documents, it uploads Word, Excel, Powerpoint, PDF and text files in your My Documents folder.
So I entered my Google account. This is a necessary step, because Google doesn't devour your information and share it with just anyone. The company uploads the information on your computer to your own account, so that way only you can access the files through your login.
Your files are only accessible to whoever has your login and password, and of course, anyone in control of Google's servers. The files are not widely available, and its threat to a company's security is similar to other services. However, I'll have to talk more about this later, since I want to show SAC in action first.
{mospagebreak title=SAC Data Collection and Removal}
Google does not slurp up everything on a computer. It will not steal all your financial records and love letters, as the EFF is afraid. Their warning is overblown to the point of inaccuracy.
Documents that existed before Search Across Computers was activated will not be uploaded. Old files will be indexed locally but will never be sent to Google's servers. Only files created and edited after you activate the feature will be sent online, and even then only those of a correct file format which are also in an SAC-index-enabled folder. Additionally, Search Across Computers will never upload HTTPS web history (secure web pages). This means it will not share sessions on your email or banking websites. Insecure webmail and logins can still be indexed if you use IE, Firefox, or Netscape to access them, but reputable pages do use HTTPS to secure the connections.
Normally, data uploaded to Google's servers is deleted after 30 days. Honestly, this is not a very long time. It's long enough for you to continue working on projects between computers, but it isn't long enough for anyone to hack your account and look up a long-term history (or even a good short-term history) of your PC usage. There is also a way to manually wipe out what is stored.
After entering my Google account, SAC displays a new button in the preferences labeled Clear my files from Google. I'd say the purpose of this button speaks for itself.
Honestly, I can't say how responsive this button is. I used it to clear Google's cache of my computers, but I can still search the files on the remote computer which were already shared. I believe that Google did remove its cache of my files, but the files are now stored in the Google Desktop cache on this computer.
So, it seems like the actual index is downloaded to all connected computers, and it is not just accessed on Google's servers. So even though Google deletes its copied of your files after 30 days, your computer's Google Desktop index may still contain those files (I don't know since it hasn't been 30 days yet). To get rid of these files, I can use the Remove from Index tool at the top of the Desktop Search pages.
Click the link there, and then the result page turns into a checklist of items you can remove. Just check them off and click remove, and they are pulled from the local index. Don't count on them being removed from other computers, though.
That said, you can also protect your desktop search tools from other people using them. You can lock your desktop search, which will require you to enter your Windows password before getting results from the local index. This will restrict anyone from jumping on one of your PCs and seeing what is on them all. The Lock Search option is in the middle of the menu.
All these precautions to let users control Desktop Search and Search Across Computers makes me speculate that the EFF never installed the program. If they had, their warning about everyone screwing up configuration and dumping all their personal information online would have sounded ridiculous to them.
Well, I've mentioned most of the relevant aspects of Google Desktop, but I haven't demonstrated the actual Search Across Computers results. Let me show how the result pages come out and how well the service works.
{mospagebreak title=Using Google's Search Across Computers}
After installing Google Desktop 3 on two computers in the office, I activated Search Across Computers and connected them to my Google account. Less than half an hour later, documents on the second computer started appearing in my desktop searches. It seems like files usually arrive on other computers about 20 minutes after they are saved.
The only thing that identified the result as coming from SAC is that the name of the computer where the file originated is the beginning of the green file name. In this case, that second computer is named WRITER2, and it belongs to Terri Wells. The top two results on the screenshot above came from her computer, and the bottom one came from my own.
To search only on a remote computer, you can add the command "machine:WRITER2" to the search query.
So, I decided to access that top text file she had been working on. After clicking on it, I come to this cached page.
Word files and other documents look similar. It seems like Google strips a lot of formatting to save file space and bandwidth. Still, it's good enough for pulling from your second computer for reference or copying into a new file and editing. This is actually very cool, and it makes a writer's job a lot easier if, for example, he has to finish a story at home.
I also noticed that SAC shared some web history that is private. These pages required a login and password to access them, but they are not secured by HTTPS. For example, the screenshot of the cached page below is from the administration side of one of our websites.
As you can see, it shows that Terri was logged in up there. Though there is no especially sensitive information there, other company websites might be insecure and have information that shouldn't be shared. Yes, it might end up in Google's cache, but keep in mind that (1) only the person who owns the Google login and Google's sys admins can access the info and (2) you can deactivate indexing of all web history or deactivate indexing specific sites.
Before I finish showing off Searh Across Computers, take a look at the timeline log of files.
Like you can see, the timeline logs all file changes on all computers that are connected to the Google account. Changes on Terri's computer are marked with [WRITER2] in the green file path. This is actually really handy when tracking down things you've done recently on any PC.
{mospagebreak title=Examining the actual privacy threat}
Having actually seen Google's new tool, I want to take look at all the controversy that has come up around it. I already said that the EFF claims are overblown. After saying that it's near impossible to keep SAC from activating and that it will gobble up all of your computer's information (both untrue), they go on to say:
The government could then demand these personal files with only a subpoena rather than the search warrant it would need to seize the same things from your home or business, and in many cases you wouldn't even be notified in time to challenge it. Other litigants—your spouse, your business partners or rivals, whoever—could also try to cut out the middleman (you) and subpoena Google for your files. (Source: EFF)
It's true that the privacy laws surrounding search engines are less defined than they should be, so the government might get away with only using a subpoena. However, a subpoena is still a court order and is not something a spouse or business rival can just randomly grab when they want to see what you've been up to. Keep in mind also that Google is currently fighting a subpoena from the government, which is only requesting statistical information on search queries (which does not even identify users or reveal personal information). The laws surrounding search engine privacy are vague enough that the case can go either way, and actual requests for personal information might even be harder to get past Google. This is not a problem with Google's software or service, but a problem with outdated legal documents that need to be cleaned up.
The risk of subpoena is not a sensible reason for a home user to avoid trying out the software (unless you are into some really illegal stuff). You must opt in to everything Google sends to its servers, and the files are held for only 30 days. You have a lot of control over what is sent away, and Google makes it obvious. Nobody else sees your files, withholding the slim chance of a court order or your Google account being hacked. This is a possibility with storing information on any third party service.
However, the threat for enterprises is not Google, as much as it is careless employees. Since the employees are not handling their personal information, they may not care that they are logged into a corporate page that is not secure HTTPS while SAC's Web history is activated. Even then, the information only spreads to employees' personal Google accounts for a few weeks. No harm there, and they can even do work from home. Most employers like that idea. Of course, it is remotely possible a court order could turn up any data on the Google Desktop server, if the employee's Google account is discovered to be related to a company lawsuit. Then again, an employee could intentionally try to hurt the company simply by giving out their Google login and password (though an email attachment full of sensitive data can be just as damaging). That is just a risk an enterprise has to determine on its own.
There are certainly some great perks to using the software, because it really beats burning CDs or emailing text files. Everything stays up to date with very little effort too. But like most things, it comes down to your personal comfort level. When the service was first started, Google admitted:
"With everything, you trade privacy for a value-add," says Mayer at Google. "You want a driver's license? First, you have to tell the state what color your eyes and hair are. I view this the same way."
Says Weiner: "There will be confusion and concern about this initially, but people will be willing to accept it. Linking multiple devices will be greatly welcomed." (Source: USA Today)
Google isn't deceiving anyone. Personally, I don't feel this is much different from some things I'm doing online already. I have Gmail and Hotmail accounts which I use to send personal and work files. These face the same risks of being hacked or having a court order pull information from them. But neither has ever happened. These services are not the same, but the biggest difference between them is that the Gmail and Hotmail emails stay on the server indefinitely (thanks to high storage), which can be more damaging than my Google Desktop files that are only online temporarily.
It seems that more than anything, the trouble people are voicing about SAC comes down to needless Google bashing. This happened when Gmail came out, but now everyone has a Gmail account. Yes, there is some privacy trade-off here, but I'm saying that a lot of this controversy is exaggerated. And maybe this feature is useful enough to be worth the trade-off for many of us. After all, how many people will really try to break into my account to see what article is coming up on SEO Chat?

When will it be answered?
I see your question... we will get around to it in a future issue. Like I say, we did four very detailed answers in our first (December) edition, and have four more lined up for the forthcoming edition. We're just answering them all on a first-come-first-serve basis, excluding only those questions which we feel are very common (and already covered in detail on the website) or just plain didn't make sense to me! I am finding some questions challenging and thoughtful and I enjoy answering those the most.
Yours will come, it's a good question.

Sauk Rapids Man An Eye Witness to Tragedy at Boston Marathon [AUDIO]
BOSTON - Tim Wright of Sauk Rapids is one of several local people who were in Boston today (Monday) for the marathon. Wright says he had just finished the race, and was only two blocks away when he heard the blasts.
Wright finished the race with Liz Wateland of Sauk Rapids. Their spouses, Ryan Wateland and Brenda Wright, were in the food court area at the time, basically across the street from the explosion. They are also okay.
None of them saw any of the injured people. He says they heard constant sirens for at least 20 minutes after the blasts.

For fun, I always go to the student lounge and hang out with people, or I play ping pong with some friends. It is one of the friendliest places you probably will ever go.Read More
There are plenty of chill spots on campus. TVs are located everywhere, couches too, and if outside is your thing there are nice benches. The main hangout area is next to the cafeteria where there are couches, TVs, pool table, ping-pong table, and tables and chairs. The library also provides computers that are accessible at any time you wish. If you need a quiet place to study, the second floor of the library is a perfect place to go where talking isn't permitted. Sports are also an option for those who would want to participate in athletics.Read More
In the Cougar Cafe there is a pool table and ping pong table that is available any time, if you can find a time where nobody is already using it. Right outside of the Cougar Cafe there is a large meeting area with a piano where many classmates meet up to have group project discussions or students lounging on the couches.Read More

ATLANTA (AP) — Lawyers for former Atlanta schools superintendent Beverly Hall say allegations that she participated in a scheme to inflate test scores to pad her bonuses are false and misleading.
In a statement released Monday, Hall's lawyers took issue with media reports that they say implied that Hall received more than $500,000 in bonuses based on test scores. Hall's lawyers say her bonuses were based on at least 25 performance objectives established by the Atlanta Board of Education, most of which had nothing to do with test results.
A Fulton County grand jury last month indicted Hall and 34 subordinates, accusing them of involvement in a broad conspiracy to cheat, conceal cheating or retaliate against whistleblowers. Prosecutors say the educators were driven at least in part by bonuses for improved student performance.

The facility was used by D&P and Jim Olvey, an independent Arizona-based cotton breeder. He used the site to store seed cotton test plot samples, and they were lost. I am getting a lot of calls from growers asking if the fire affected our seed supplies. It did not," said Bill White, Deltapine's district sales manager in Visalia, Calif. "We had no commercial seed stored in the building."
"We had pretty well ginned off the samples we needed to," said Olvey, who developed several cottons now marketed by Deltapine.
"The fire may have set us back in volume of certain things, but we have back up samples stored elsewhere," said Olvey. "I learned a long time ago to backup everything. I have had nurseries hailed out. It was not hail, but a fire — nevertheless, most everything we had in the building was duplicated elsewhere."
"The fire set us back, but not much," he said.
Gary Fuqua of Delta and Pine Land Co. in Stoneville, Miss., flew to California to meet with insurance adjusters immediately after the fire and said the loss would not be as high as the $700,000 initially estimated by firefighters.
"It is going to take a lot of electrical work to get the small gin back up and running. However, that and damage to the building should not be over $250,000."
There were only about 38 bags of seed in the building and they were set aside primarily for test plots, according to Fuqua.
The cause of the 4 a.m. fire has not been determined, but firefighters do not suspect arson.

Fall 'friendraiser' and board meeting
The first snow was fluttering down when High Country News' staff and board members arrived in Hailey, Idaho, for a late September meeting. But the white flakes couldn't quite cover the black tracks left by a summer fire that rampaged down ravines to the edge of town. Signs – many in front of insurance offices – proclaimed, "Thank you, Firefighters!" Gratitude was also expressed that evening at our first-ever "friendraiser" event, at the home of longtime supporters Tom and Molly Page. More than 30 local readers and friends discussed fire, salmon, ranching and many other topics, and we came away with story ideas and insightful feedback. ("It would be nice to read a few more positive stories!" one said, a sentiment we wholeheartedly share.) We left filled with a deep sense of, well, gratitude, for everyone who has supported HCN over the years and made it part of their lives.
Next morning, our hardworking board passed an ambitious budget for the new fiscal year (Oct. 1 through Sept. 30) that includes funding for a website redesign and a push to get HCN into the hands of more college students. In August, our indefatigable marketer, JoAnn Kalenak, tested a free semester-long student subscription program, and 1,800 students from more than a dozen colleges signed up. Interestingly, many professors reported that their students preferred getting the magazine in print rather than digital format. (Take that, "death-of-print" pessimists!) We're so excited that we plan to open the program to 5,000 students in 2014.
Catching up on summer visitors
We're always amazed that people ever find our Paonia, Colo., headquarters, tucked away as we are at the end of a two-block downtown in a tiny town 70 miles from the nearest interstate. And this summer we've met some dedicated – and delightful – readers.
In late July, Daniel Weinshenker left Denver with one plan: Head west. He and daughter Lydia take summer road trips, sketching as they go. After kayaking in Aspen, they drove to Paonia to pick cherries and visit HCN. Daniel, a writing instructor at the Center for Digital Storytelling, sees a lot of overlap with his social justice work and the stories in HCN.
A rainy day brought Glenwood Springs, Colo., subscriber Richard Ivker and his Philadelphia relatives, Stephen and Eileen Feldman, to the office. Richard admires HCN because, he says, it's the "social consciousness of the West." Eileen, a retired art teacher, appreciates the mag's cover art. Doug and Jean Rhinehart, on a camping trip from Woody Creek, Colo., also said hello. Doug's exquisite black-and-white photographs have appeared in HCN; check out his 2009 book, Desert Adagio.
Page Buono and Jennifer Lopez from Durango, Colo., came by in early August. Jennifer, who works on affordable housing access, is excited about involving Colorado in the national 10,000 Homes Campaign. Page, a reporter with the Durango Herald, hopes to one day see her work in High Country News. We are honored by the thought.

IP SLA Tracking with Configuration Example
From DocWiki
<ip sla 1 < The number 1 here is arbitrary, used only to identify this sla. It is otherwise known as the operation number>
icmp-echo 220.127.116.11 < 184.108.40.206 is a DNS server that responds to pings out on the internet>
timeout 500 < This is how long to wait for a response from the ping>
frequency 3 < This is the repeat rate for the SLA>
ip sla schedule 1 start-time now life forever < This command says "start SLA 1 now and keep it running forever>
track 1 rtr 1 reachability < This comand creates the track object "1" and monitors the SLA 1>
now for the routing, we need to change the default route and associate it with the tracker
no ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 184.108.40.206
and then put it back with the tracking
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 220.127.116.11 track 1
Then we need to add our secondary route
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 22.214.171.124 10 <we set this route with a higher metric than the tracked route>
ip route 22.214.171.124 255.255.255.255 188.8.131.52 ==> 220.127.116.11 being your primary next hop ip address
Now when the ping to 184.108.40.206 fails the primary route is removed and the secondary route with the higher metric becomes the default.
The route will be reinstated when the connectivity is restored.

In C, you can pass around references to functions, store them in arrays, etc. Does anyone know if this is possible in PHP? I've heard of passing variables by reference, but not functions.
I\'m back.
I don't think you can pass around references to functions as such, but you can use variable interpolation to an extent to achieve that effect:
That's from PHP 3 though, no idea if that behaviour still works.
Out of interest, why would you want to do this anyway? I've been using PHP for several years and have never come across a situation where I'd need to pass in a reference to a function.
Paul Waring - Web site design and development.
I'm trying to achieve some semblance of polymorphism with PHP4 (which I don't believe supports it natively). I was able to achieve this in C using a homemade object-C implementation, some tricky memory alignment, and the passing of function references to the "parent".
Functions are not first-class objects in PHP. There is no function type, and you can't create truly anonymous functions.
The only way to create higher-order functions, is to pass around the function name and use call_user_func (or whatever it's called).
The PHP standard library contains some higher order functions itself, and it does exactly that.

YES! Recommends: The Legacy Project
The Legacy Project's founder Susan V. Bosak reminds us that legacy is about life and living. It helps us decide the kind of life we want to live and the kind of world we want to live in.
And now is as good a time as ever for your students to think about how they want to live.
What would I like to learn to do? What would I like to do to make a living? What can I do for my community? Helping your students be their best also involves a road or life map. Without a guide, it's easy to wander or get lost. How will I accomplish my goals? Who will help me?
It's never too early or too late to start planning and living your dreams. YES! recommends the Legacy Project and its banner program LifeDreams as an inspiring and supportive co-pilot for helping your students dream big.
The world needs more dreamers because they are the people whose creativity and courage have brought change to our lives. LifeDreams helps your students develop their individual potential and create their own lives. At the core of LifeDreams is the award-winning bestseller Dream. Several activities are also independent of the book and facilitate identifying your students' passions, what they'd like to be, and how they can achieve their goals.
Here are three sample activities:
- Life Line: Using six sheets of paper, words, photos, drawings and magazine clippings, your students create visual representations of their life lines. Each sheet represents one life stage—baby, toddler, child, teenager, young adult, older adult—and is filled with events, achievements, and other memories. For future life lines, students will imagine what they'd like to see happen.
- Life List: What would you like to do in your lifetime? Hit a homerun? Sit on a sandy beach in Greece? Your students will enjoy creating their own life list—and checking off items as the months and years go by. They'll probably have more aspirations when they hear what's on their classmates' list. Mount Everest, here I come!
- Goal Letter: After your students have thought about a specific goal—something they want to learn to do, get better at, or even a fear they'd like to overcome—they will write a letter to themselves. This letter not only identifies the goal but how they plan to accomplish it. Who will help you? What will you do when you hit a rough patch?
Explore more LifeDream activities here.
Legacy Project Banner Programs
In addition to Life Dreams, here are the Legacy Project's other banner programs with accompanying activities and guides:
Across Generations

Our World

Listen to a Life Essay Contest
Now in its 12th year, the gives students 8-18 years old the opportunity to develop interviewing, listening, writing, and technology skills. More important, they will forge a deeper connection with an elder.

Prof. William Alsop OBE
Prof. Alsop works on large-scale urban planning and design initiatives across the world from his London, Shanghai, Istanbul and Toronto bases. His work is guided by the principle that architecture is both vehicle and symbol of social change and renewal. The philosophy extends from the design of objects and individual buildings to embrace broader principles of urbanism and city development. By abandoning the hegemony of an acceptable style, he has rendered the whole process of architecture one of increasing fluidity and transparency; a new and refreshing position for architecture both in the UK and elsewhere. Prof Alsop is the recipient of a multitude of world-class level recognitions for his work, including the RIBA World Architecture award – the highest architectural recognition in the UK – as well as professorships in distinguished universities in Europe and North America. Prof. Alsop is an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) and a Member of the Royal Academy, London.
