All Quiet on the Western Front

Paul Bäumer Timeline and Summary
- Paul is the narrator. He rests behind the Front with "the guys," eating a big meal because only 80 of 150 men survived the last assault and food portions are almost double (the cook had planned for 150). The men speak endlessly about the food, savoring every morsel.
- Paul visits Kemmerich in the hospital. His leg was amputated, but Paul and the others can't bring themselves to tell him the pain in his foot is phantom.
- Paul dreads having to tell Kemmerich's mother of his death. Paul is repulsed by what he sees in Kemmerich's condition.
- Paul thinks about his home, the books he was reading, the artwork. Contrasts of innocence and war brutality are poignant here.
- Paul notes the ludicrous discipline he was given at basic training and then revels in how he and Kropp spilled a urine bucket on their commander Himmelstoss.
- Paul sadly watches Kemmerich die with hospital orderlies and doctors not really caring about enlisted men (not officers). The utilitarian Müller covets Kemmerich's boots – not out of greed but to help his chances for survival.
- Paul tries to comfort Kemmerich, but cannot. Kemmerich cries all the way into his death. Paul gives Müller the boots.
- Kat and Paul go hunting for food and return with horse-flesh, which they roast tender.
- Paul and his friends corner Himmelstoss when he returns from a pub one night and beat the living daylights out of him with a switch. Paul watches more than participates.
- Paul and the troops go to the front to lay barbed wire fence. They are shelled actively along the way.
- Paul describes the Front as an odd whirlpool of shells.
- They work their mission, crawling around shell holes and bomb craters, air raids from above, and gunfire.
- Paul finds a new recruit who has crapped his pants in fear, and kindly helps him get himself together with no teasing.
- They return home and, en route, they are again bombed heavily. This is a gas raid; Paul dons his mask.
- Paul and the others take shelter in a graveyard, throw bodies out of coffins, and take their places to hide in them.
- They meet wounded soldiers along the way and help bandage where they can. One badly injured man should be euthanized, but they can not get to him in time – medics carry him away with Paul and Kat knowing that he will suffer much before he dies.
- The men sit around again eating and discussing the war's lunacies. Himmelstoss will join them at the front.
- Back at camp, Himmelstoss accosts the men and they show him no respect. After name-calling, Himmelstoss storms away, threatening to court martial Tjaden and Müller.
- Paul goes off with Kat to catch a goose. He does. They eat.
- An offensive is coming and, while the men wait tensely, they catch and kill rats that have overrun their camp. Paul is a good rat catcher.
- The offensive starts and the men are gassed, but they wear masks and survive. They are deep in the front. Bombs hit round the clock and with such fury that their trenches are almost evaporated.
- Paul describes the men as "wild beasts" trying to survive. The men raid some food and return to safe areas back behind the front.
- Paul details the gut-wrenching sounds of one of their company's men who is shot. He takes three days to die in "no man's land," where he can not be rescued by others as they would risk certain death.
- Paul describes gruesome injuries.
- The company has retreated further back to regroup and bring reinforcements. Paul ponders how quickly things change at the Front – fighting, retreating, lather, rinse, repeating. The Front is all terror.
- The men walk to a nearby river and meet some French women. Paul is just a spectator in all of this.
- Paul is sent home on leave and finds his mother sick with cancer. She and he connect emotionally, but he is depressed at seeing her like this.
- Paul's father wants to drag him around the village to meet his friends so they can hear glorious war stories from the front.
- His father worries about how much Paul's mother's medical bills will cost.
- Paul is hating his "leave" – he begins to long for the Front.
- Paul looks over the posters decorating his room from his youth – they feel a million miles away, as though they were built by a different person.
- Paul visits Kemmerich's mother – he swears her son died fast, even though he did not. Paul has no qualms swearing to this lie.
- Paul returns to his basic training base and laughs to see his old school teacher Kantorek humping it in his own basic training as he is prepared to be sent to the Front.
- Paul says a soft good-bye to his mother, sorry he ever came here on leave.
- Paul attends advanced training at his old army camp, which is next door to a Russian POW camp. Compared to those prisoners, Paul has life relatively easy. They forage for garbage while others complain about the food not being warm enough.
- Paul is moved by the fact that, seemingly every day, another Russian is dead and buried.
- His father visits him, nervous about his mother's operation. The meeting is painful. Paul can't wait for his father and sister to leave.
- Several days of travel on the road get Paul back to the Front. He is relieved to be there.
- The Kaiser shows up and decorates the men, including Paul.
- The men are sent back to the line. Paul volunteers for a patrol mission to determine where the Front lines are now.
- He crawls along at night and is bombed heavily, feeling very close to death. He has crawled behind the enemy lines, perhaps by accident.
- A French soldier jumps into his foxhole and Paul stabs him. In his horror, Paul sits with the man, watching him die.
- At the end, Paul takes the man's wallet and sees he has a wife and a daughter. Moved and crushed, Paul promises to write to them, knowing he won't. Knowing the man's name is important to Paul – Gerard Duval.
- Paul is rejoined by his comrades to guard an abandoned village.
- The men "luck out" in getting a supply job. They supply the French village's goods to the German soldiers, but also get to eat from those supplies themselves.
- They stumble on two suckling pigs, which they kill and eat – but then get diarrhea from them.
- In another battle, Albert and Paul are injured. They are sent to the hospital where Paul fights hard any need to be knocked out before the operation. He promises the surgeon that he will stop moving and the surgeon takes out shrapnel from Paul's leg with no anesthesia.
- Paul recovers over three weeks in an uncaring hospital with his mates.
- Paul watches amputee Albert and others enter The Dying Room, from which they will likely never return.
- Paul heals and recovers. He's given a short leave, during which he sees his mother, now very feeble and dying.
- Paul is sent back to the Front.
- Paul details the gory deaths of Detering, Berger, Müller, and others.
- It is summer of 1918. Paul and Kat are on a mission. Kat is shot in the shin; Paul carries him hurriedly for miles, only to discover that, when he reaches the triage area, Kat has been hit in the head along the way. As a result, that "splinter" has likely been kept from hitting Paul in the back (Paul was carrying Kat over his shoulder).
- Paul dies in October, 1918. He is found looking calm. And as if he was relieved to die.

About Me Practical, Stylish, Athletic
I was a little leery about ordering this suit as the reviews weren't so good but I thought I would give it a try because I have a longer torso and wear usually a 16/18 size. I ordered this swimsuit for a group trip to Legoland to use at the water park and to hang out by the hotel pool afterwards. I ordered both top and bottom and expedite shipping. It got to me just in the nick of time for our trip but they sent me two tops! I was able to run to Target and got a plain black bottom thankfully (after I cried and screamed!) and they matched up great. This top is simply amazing! Its flattering and makes my stomach and torso look longer and leaner.The point of the suit hits just below my belly button so breaks up the "thick" part of my body. The neck line is VERY sexy and it could even be used as a night club shirt! I did feel that it ran a little small, mostly in the chest width so if you like a little more skin shown for tanning, order the smaller size. I personally like to cover my armpit folds and need a little more coverage up there so ordered a size up. The ONLY con is that when the material gets wet it can cling to you a little too much. Maybe if the material was a little thicker it would be perfect? Regardless, I still LOVE this suit. I am having them ship me the bottoms and will review again when I get them. Fingers crossed.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

About Me Practical, Comfort-oriented
This is a cute suit, but if you have a shorter torso like me, it won't look like the model. The silver fold-down band isn't visible when I wear it, which is too bad because it's a stylish look, but I have to say I'm still pleased with the fit. I bought both pieces in a 12 - I'm 5'3" and a 38D.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
By V-girl

About Me Stylish
All the previous reviewers were right. I should have listened. This swim suit is amazing, but the triangular part that hangs down is a single layer of swimsuit material which makes it way too thin. The bottom edge doesn't even have a seam. That being said, the fit is great. It's true to size and the bra insert holds everything in place. It's also nice that the bottoms are a little higher cut.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
By Sweetessie
from Los Angeles, CA
About Me Practical, Stylish
I didn't notice in the photos, but there is about an inch of fabric missing from the "peplum" part-- this is fine if you're planning on using a high cut bottom, but I bought the top and was just going to use a normal bottom and it basically makes a frame for my belly button. Not flattering! I wish the peplum opening was either completely closed or wider-- an inch just seems like they ran out of fabric. I know I'm not doing a great job at describing it, but just look closely at the photo (about where the model's belly button would be) and you'll see what I mean. I guess if you use the high cut bottom, it's fine. I just thought it would be cute with a pink bottom but the weird hole prevents anything other than a black high cut. Also, I don't have a particularly long torso, but like one of the other reviewers, I wish that the top was about an inch longer. I feel like the peplum, for lack of a better word, pops out which makes me look a little hippy. Overall, I really like the idea of this suit more than I like it in reality. (for the record, I'm about 5'9" , normally a size 10, and ordered this in a 12).
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

|Your Bunny Adoption Checklist
|Written by Tammy Souch
|Tuesday, 27 March 2012 15:38
Let's face it - bunnies are just adorable. I totally understand why someone would want to surprise their kids with a rabbit (especially during certain times of the year, like the fast-approaching Easter holiday). After all, their fur feels just as we would imagine clouds would feel – and that nose wiggle gets me every time. They suck us in with their cuteness, but the bottom line is that rabbits are a very serious addition to the family, and before taking the leap, one needs to consider the time and effort it will take to have a rabbit in their home just as they would if it were a cat or a dog.
Even the smallest bunny needs a lot of care, and we're going to help you discover if you're ready to have a bunny in your life. If you answer "no" to any of the following questions, you may need to stick to a toy bunny (like these – I want one!).
There is a lot more to bunny adoption than meets the eye. If this checklist hasn't made you second-guess your desire for a pet rabbit, head on over to the House Rabbit Society which has a ton of great information on rabbit care. If after reading over that site you still want a rabbit, check out the nifty chews, toys, and other rabbit care products at The Busy Bunny. You'll find some great items to help make your home a welcome place for your new rabbit.blog comments powered by Disqus

Thai Group says Steve Jobs reincarnated as warrior-philosopher
A rather quirky Buddhist organization has taken the distasteful, and I must assume dishonest, step of making claims about Steve Job's rebirth. Many people only became aware that the Apple leader was a BUddhist when he died last year after a prolonged battle with cancer.
According to the Wall Street Journal, the Dhammakaya Group in Thailand is now claiming that "Mr. Jobs has been reincarnated as a celestial warrior-philosopher .. and he's living in a mystical glass palace hovering above his old office at Apple's Cupertino, California headquarters."
The WSJ pointed out that the widespread grief many felt after Jobs' passing took an odd form, when some of hisadmirers in Malaysia "gathered on a tropical island and in a religious ceremony …

Aston Kutcher channels Steve Jobs at UCLA
The Daily Mail carries photographs of actor Aston Kutcher playing the part of Steve Jobs in a biographical film that's being make of the late Apple chief.
Jobs is said to have been inspired by meditation and by the minimalist Zen esthetic, although his legendary bad temper suggests that his meditation practice only went so far.
He was so dedicated to Buddhism he went to India in search of enlightenment – and was married by a Zen master.
And new scenes of Ashton Kutcher sitting cross-legged at a meditation class show it is another of the threads of his live that will be touched upon in the forthcoming Steve Jobs biopic.

Steve Jobs' private spirituality now an open book
Daniel Burke: He considered moving to a Zen monastery before shifting his sights to Silicon Valley, where he became a brash businessman.
He preached about the dangers of desire but urged consumers to covet every new iPhone incarnation.
"He was an enlightened being who was cruel," says a former girlfriend. "That's a strange combination."
Now, we can add another irony to the legacy of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs: Since his death on Oct. 5, the famously private man's spiritual side has become an open book.
A relative recounted his last words for The New York Times. A new biography traces his early quest for enlightenment …

Steve Jobs on death
I'm sad that Steve Jobs has died. No one has had as much effect on the computer industry as he has. His company, Apple, has transformed the way we relate to computers.
I only recently learned that Jobs was a Buddhist. According to his Wikipedia biography, he went to India in the 1970s and came back a Buddhist. In 1991 his wedding ceremony was performed by a Zen priest. He was a very private man, and I don't think he talked much about his religion.
I thought a fitting tribute would be Jobs own words, from his 2005 commencement address at Stanford University, in which he eloquently discusses how an awareness of …

CEO Speaks About Recent Subversion Controversy
Interview WANdisco on Subversion
WANdisco have been at the centre of some controversy recently, after the company posted a string of blogs regarding Subversion, which elicited a reply from the Apache Software Foundation. In this interview, JAXenter.com speaks to David Richards on where WANdisco stand on the situation.....
JAXenter: WANdisco have recently been at the centre of some controversy surrounding blog posts on Subversion. What is your stance on the reaction to your blogs? Do you feel your comments have been taken out of context?
David Richards: Absolutely! The Blog Post "Shaking-up Subversion by Listening to the User Community and then Committing to do the Work." was not about WANdisco making claims that we own the project. It was about WANdisco increasing participation in the project, hiring more people to work on Subversion, listening to the user community and then actually doing the work (i.e. writing source code). I didn't even claim that anything we are planning to do [improve / fix branching and merging] are new requirements. Far from it.
In some cases these requirements have been publicly posted for over 5 years and that is *the* point - they are requirements that the user community really need and nobody has done. I do not believe it's because the committers are bad stewards or lazy or anything like that. It's more because a number of high profile developers like Ben Collins-Sussman and Karl Fogel moved on (which is very common in open source) and were not replaced. We are simply saying that we aim to fill that gap, fix these underlying problems and get Subversion moving again. With all due respect, what's wrong with that?
JAXenter: For those unfamiliar with your company, how is WANdisco involved in Subversion?
David Richards: We have full time committers on staff including Hyrum Wright (Subversion release manager and President of the Subversion Corporation), Phillip Martin and Julian Foad (also long time full committers on the project.) In addition WANdisco (Wide-Area-Network-DIStributed-COmputing) has a series of Enterprise Subversion project such as Subversion MultiSite that scales Subversion to thousands of users and repositories and millions of transactions per day. Hence we have a business that is built around the success of Subversion.
JAXenter: What factors do you feel are currently slowing down the development of Subversion?
David Richards: As I mentioned earlier some of the high-profile originators of Subversion like Karl, Brian, Ben and others have simply moved on. That is *not* a criticism of today's committers - they continue to do an unbelievable job. We just need more.
JAXenter: What new functionality do you intend to commit to Subversion, within the fields of branching and merging?
David Richards: We actually did produce a spec, that most of the critics conveniently failed to mention.
The approach we are taking is to solve specific issues being reported by the Subversion user community. For example, better support for merging across renamed objects. This will result in much faster, easier and intuitive merging without the need for manual error-prone intervention. We are tackling several use cases like this and are working with Subversion users who face these challenges every day. In addition our product manager, Rob Budas, will blog weekly progress. Now there's true transparency and community!

|Computer Networks (5th Edition)
|Andrew S. Tanenbaum and David J. Wetherall
|Computer Networks, 5/e is appropriate for Computer Networking or Introduction to Networking courses at both the undergraduate and graduate level in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, CIS, MIS, and Business Departments. Tanenbaum takes a structured approach to explaining how networks work from the inside out. He starts with an explanation of the physical layer of networking, computer hardware and transmission systems; then works his way up to network applications. Tanenbaum's in-depth application coverage includes email; the domain name system; the World Wide Web (both client- and server-side); and multimedia (including voice over IP, Internet radio video on demand, video conferencing, and streaming media. Each chapter follows a consistent approach: Tanenbaum presents key principles, then illustrates them utilizing real-world example networks that run through the entire book—the Internet, and wireless networks, including Wireless LANs, broadband wireless and Bluetooth. The Fifth Edition includes a chapter devoted exclusively to network security. The textbook is supplemented by a Solutions Manual, as well as a Website containing PowerPoint slides, art in various forms, and other tools for instruction, including a protocol simulator whereby students can develop and test their own network protocols.
|The Internet Book: Everything You Need to Know About Computer Networking and How the Internet Works (4th Edition)
|Douglas E Comer
|Internet Book, The: Everything You Need to Know About Computer Networking and How the Internet Works, 4/e utilizes a non-technical perspective to explain the technology of how computers communicate, what the Internet is, how the Internet works, and what the Internet can do for people. This book works to fully connect readers to the "big picture" by presenting a solid overview of networking and the Internet, rather than burying them with details. Comer assumes no prior background in computer networking or the Internet. Introduces computer communication system concepts and technology, reviews the history of the Internet and its growth, describes basic Internet technology and capabilities, and describes services currently available on the Internet and how to use them. For anyone interested in learning how to navigate the Internet to its full potential.

|Computer System Architecture (3rd Edition)
|M. Morris Mano
|Dealing with computer architecture as well as computer organization and design, this fully updated book provides the basic knowledge necessary to understand the hardware operation of digital computers. Written to aid electrical engineers, computer engineers, and computer scientists, the volume includes: KEY FEATURES: the computer architecture, organization, and design associated with computer hardware • the various digital components used in the organization and design of digital computers • detailed steps that a designer must go through in order to design an elementary basic computer • the organization and architecture of the central processing unit • the organization and architecture of input-output and memory • the concept of multiprocessing • two new chapters on pipeline and vector processing • two sections devoted completely to the reduced instruction set computer (RISC) • and sample worked-out problems to clarify topics.
|The Elements of Computing Systems: Building a Modern Computer from First Principles
|Noam Nisan and Shimon Schocken
|In the early days of computer science, the interactions of hardware, software, compilers, and operating system were simple enough to allow students to see an overall picture of how computers worked. With the increasing complexity of computer technology and the resulting specialization of knowledge, such clarity is often lost. Unlike other texts that cover only one aspect of the field, The Elements of Computing Systems gives students an integrated and rigorous picture of applied computer science, as its comes to play in the construction of a simple yet powerful computer system.Indeed, the best way to understand how computers work is to build one from scratch, and this textbook leads students through twelve chapters and projects that gradually build a basic hardware platform and a modern software hierarchy from the ground up. In the process, the students gain hands-on knowledge of hardware architecture, operating systems, programming languages, compilers, data structures, algorithms, and software engineering. Using this constructive approach, the book exposes a significant body of computer science knowledge and demonstrates how theoretical and applied techniques taught in other courses fit into the overall picture.Designed to support one- or two-semester courses, the book is based on an abstraction-implementation paradigm; each chapter presents a key hardware or software abstraction, a proposed implementation that makes it concrete, and an actual project. The emerging computer system can be built by following the chapters, although this is only one option, since the projects are self-contained and can be done or skipped in any order. All the computer science knowledge necessary for completing the projects is embedded in the book, the only pre-requisite being a programming experience.The book's web site provides all tools and materials necessary to build all the hardware and software systems described in the text, including two hundred test programs for the twelve projects. The projects and systems can be modified to meet various teaching needs, and all the supplied software is open-source.

Princess Leia In Her Slave Costume on a Beach. Yes, You Read That Right.
FollowStar Wars: Episode VIIYou and 71,968 are followingStar Wars: Episode VIIUnfollowStar Wars: Episode VII
If "Yesterday" by the Beatles is the most covered song of all time, then Princess Leia in her gold slave bikini has to be the most cosplayed costume of all time, amirite?
We're not sure where this picture originated, but it randomly floated onto Geekrest's Facebook page. It's a behind-the-scenes and unreleased (until now) shot of Carrie Fisher as Princess Leia in her slave get-up on the beach.
With Harrison Ford already confirmed to be involved with Star Wars: Episode VII, it's only a matter of time before Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill jump on board too, right? What do you think, Star Wars fans?

Jesse Briggs
Owner of Yellow Strawberry Salons (yellowstrawberry.com) and founder of Caribbean Dream Relaxer (caribbeandreamrelaxer.com)
Year I obtained my beauty license: 1968
At age 16 I was a plumbers assistant. I met a beautiful manicurist named Flo, who was from Cuba. Every time I visited her in the salon I was impressed by the ambiance, especially when I compared it to my heavy labor in extreme weather.
Flo and I married, and with my then steady job as a truck driver, we were able to open our very first "beauty shop." Her salon became successful and I watched her income surpass my own. Together we wondered if my rough hands would or could ever master the artist of hairdressing. So I enrolled in beauty school to give it a test. I was the only male and voted "most likely not to succeed!" And, I realized this beauty biz was for me.
From early on it was obvious to me that continuing education was key to staying on top of your game. Attending hair shows and reading trade magazines like MODERN was key. I met and befriended my mentors: Vidal Sassoon, Paul Mitchell and Jamison Shaw.
We opened additional salons and became members of Intercoiffure. We co-founded HairColor USA and have done photo shoots and fashion shows.
I still find every day exciting and I enjoy meeting and mentoring the new generation of salon professionals. I am truly grateful to have chose beauty as my business … and Flo! We've been married now for 50 years.

the following is taken from http://wow.curse.com/articles/details/9636/
which is an interview with Tom Chilton:
"Curse: With all the changes you're introducing -- 10-person instances for every raid instance -- can we expect a similar shift for the Arena and Honor systems, where the Honor system is basically the equivalent of 10-person, and Arena is 25?
TC: Certainly the itemization is going through some changes to reflect that. The way we have it set up is, the highest end of the Arena gear and some of the Honor gear that has Arena requirements on it will actually be equivalent to 25-man raid instances. So when Season 1 starts for level 80 Arenas, the best stuff that has really high rating requirements, kind of like what you're seeing for the Season 4 rating requirements, will mirror the 25-man Naxxramas quality. Then we'll have a middle tier that's below that, that has lower rating requirements and is much cheaper, but it parallels the 10-person raiding quality. And then we're also going have a tier below that of PvP gear, that has no requirements at all, and it parallels the Heroic dungeon quality gear. So we do plan to start out with multiple tiers right out of the gate, and we're going to make sure that the best stuff also feels, from PvP, kind of equivalently difficult to get as the best stuff from PvE. So we're trying to equalize the balance a bit better."

|My Dear Brother.
|London December 26. 1795.
Your Packet by Mr: Clarke at length was delivered me on the 21st: and your letter of the 11th: of this month,by Mr. Calhoun the day preceding.
Quincy's letter is indeed a valuable one, and contains some opinions which are at once just important, and not sufficiently established in the minds of Americans in general. I would enclose it back to you, but think I may as well be the bearer of it myself.
Our friends Frazier and White have returned from Paris, but Gardner remained behind. He is however still expected shortly, and I hope to see Crafts with him; they intended to come together when Frazier left them. So you will see. Crafts is not gone to America as he intended.
Your opinion that a Peace will not be procured by the excesses of a London mob was accurate. They find it rather a dangerous thing to tamper with the strength of such a Government as this. For a square of glass broken, and a coach door opened mal-a-propos, this kingdom has been resounding for two months with echoes and re-echoes of daring and unparallel'd outrage, with horror and indignation, with the royal virtues and the crimes of the Jacobins.
The dulness of loyalty, no doubt has its privilege, and the tediousness of addresses, must be suffered principally by the receiver. But a more substantial use is made of the incident by the Ministers; for they have taken occasion from it to carry through two new Laws which give great additional strength to the Government, and will be a powerful check even upon political discussion.—The revolutionists you readily suppose weep and wail and gnash their teeth, but to little purpose. The power of this Nation is in the hands of its property; and the property is perfectly aware that it is contending for self preservation. What walls hunger may break down, no previous calculation can ascertain; but if the People here can have bread, I believe the more rioting there is raised, the longer the war will continue.
I thank you for the detail of your correspondence with the bankers on the subject of the approaching interests. If they should apply to you again, for supplies, you can refer them to me, they have indeed already made a similar application to me, and perhaps their anxiety on this subject proceeds at least as much from curiosity as from expectation. It is very probable that before the first of February you will receive from the Treasury Department the means of answering them or that they will receive supplies which will prevent the renewal of their applications. To say the truth I was more apprehensive on account of the Antwerp interest than I am for the payments in Holland; there is one strong operative cause in favour of the latter which was directly contrary to the former. If I find occasion for recurring to new resources I shall not fail to write you fully on the subject, but in the mean time, you can if they should again make demands on you, assure them that you have no authority to raise money on Account of the United States, nor any funds of theirs in your hands. Their style of language has not I think improved in civility, since their correspondence with you. They treat us however pretty much alike; and I think it best to overlook altogether their airs of superiority, taking care to allow them nothing more than the airs.
Your transition as you call it to a thinking animal, no doubt contributed to encrease your labours, but it will be serviceable to you. A habit of thinking is of considerable importance in the passage through life, and few men think accurately whose judgment has not been sharpened by opposition.
The non-payment of the bill on Dallarde and Swan, is a circumstance that mortifies and surprizes me. But as to the causes of the failure neither you nor I can be responsible; the business was put entirely into other hands, and had I been disposed to meddle with it, you remember that the bankers informed methey were in correspondence with Mr: Monroe on the subject, which I considered as a sufficient intimation to me, that it was not a concern of mine. Since then however I have interfered as far as was in my power to secure the payment for them, and regret as much they can, that any difficulties should yet intercept the remittance.
The letter from your mother was indeed a treat, but like many others previously received a little too high-seasoned. The opinion of the great man seems to look through the parental microscope. If the flattery of my Vanity, constituted my happiness, I could not possibly wish for higher gratification; but you know what value I am apt to set upon my own opinions; when others go beyond my own estimation of myself they are certainly under a mistake, and it gives me more pain than pleasure to find myself over rated.
I have many thanks to give Mr: Parker for the device you sent me, with which I am highly pleased; I have made a little addition to it for the sake of a proud motto, but I hope it will not hurt the design. It is now in the hands of an able engraver, and I hope Mr: Parker himself will be satisfied with the Execution.
Your letter mentions a list, to be procured and forwarded by me, but no such list was enclosed. If it had been, I should have executed the commission with pleasure.
I am yet in hopes of returning in the course of a few weeks. Mr: Pinckney is hourly expected, and the life of the Hague suits me much better than that of London.
The news-papers here have taken a deal of pains to make an Envoy Extraordinary of me, and to supply me with credentials for the Queen If you should hear any thing of the kind at the Hague, you will say there is not a word of truth in these tales. I have no new character, and the credentials as well as the dignity are merely of typographical creation.
I hope to hear from you soon, again. You will continue to write untill I give you notice to stop. If you receive any Dispatches from the Government, you will inform me of their substance. What became of the bill drawn Mr: Van Berckel on Mr Tinne?
Your affectionate brother
John Q. Adams.

Anonymous said: I want to sign data with elliptic curve signatures because they're small, but I heard ECDSA is a shit algorithm. What do?
ECDSA is a fine algorithm, just make sure to use good, fresh randomness for every keygen and every signature. That's just good crypto hygiene, but is particularly good advice in the case of DSA.
Anonymous said: Is using an RSA public exponent of 3 a bad idea if using OAEP padding? Is it more efficient?
Yes, it's faster to use a public exponent of 3, but it's not the tradeoff I would make, even with OAEP padding.
Anonymous said: Do I need to store my salts as far from my hashes as possible, or is there some value in a salt even if an attacker manages to steal both the salt and the hash?
There is great value in salts even if stored right next to your hashes, as long as your hashing is using an appropriately slow algorithm like bcrypt with 8+ rounds. Now, if you can robustly store the hashes separately, that's a nice defense-in-depth measure, but it wouldn't be my first priority.
Anonymous said: Is using SHA512/HMAC-SHA512 for speed on 64-bit processors and then truncating to 256bits a bad idea?
it's a fine idea, NIST has even defined an official way to do this.
Anonymous said: I am using PBKDF2 with 100,000 iterations and a random salt to store passwords. Do I need to switch to bcrypt?
Nah, you're good. Now stop showing off.
Anonymous said: If a bear exponentiates a 4096-bit number in the forest but there's no one there to hear it, does it make a sound?
Lucky13 is a timing attack on certain implementations of CBC mode encryption in SSL/TLS. The best way to avoid this attack is to upgrade your server's OpenSSL to the very latest version.
scrypt is an alternative to bcrypt that takes both time and lots of memory. Again, that's a feature. Too few implementations and too high server side memory usage to recommend it for password storage for now.
Always use RSA-OAEP padding as defined in the RSA-PKCS#1v2.1 specification. Never ever use the obsolete RSA-PKCS#1v1.5 encryption padding scheme, as it's vulnerable to practical chosen ciphertext attacks.

Question: SA 180 Repair
Dan Copps
I purchased a used SA180 sander from the Sun City Texas Woodworkers club. They purchased a new SA180. The belt on the one I purchased would not track. The upper idler is quite worn and the bearings need replacing. What is your recommended procedure for removing the two idlers from the shafts? The upper idler came off with little effort after removing the retaining screw and washers from the shaft. I was then able to remove the retaining ring from the back side and then remove the bearing. The lower idler does not want to come off easily. I have removed the retainer ring and thought the idler would pull off. Wrong. It looks like I could loosen the set screw on the shaft and knock the whole assembly out from the back side. What is you recommendation to get to that bearing?
Question: Belt Tracking Adjust
Marv Samuelson
I am unable to bring the belt into proper track as the tracking adjust screw will not turn further. The belt wore a grove in the plastic cover plate. I checked and I have parts 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9. 7 could be bent but it is not available. Is there any way to adjust the belt or is the sander destined to be scrap? Thanks for your help.

"I loved the way my business cards came out. Unfortunately, the ones that were reprinted was an older version of the business cards. Any way I can get the newer version reprinted again? LMK next steps. Look forward to hearing from you soon, Melissa"
"We were looking for a natural style card, more recycled looking. It's perfect. The print quality was perfect, nice and clean, and delivery was sooner then estimated. We tested out 150 but they are going quicker then expected while customers loving this card. Definitely wil be ordering more cards as soon as we can."
"I was super impressed with the weight of the cards stocked used. These are professional business cards, not like cards you get on free or highly discounted sites. I love the shape of them, so different! I was able to fit my first and last initial on the front of the card. They look great! The only issue I had with them is that the blue border on the back is supposed to go all the way to the edge. It looks like the cards were mechanically cut and some of the edges are peeling, showing the white underneath the blue. I won't be using those cards, but overall I am very happy!"
"The clean lines of the card's design, the sharpness of the lettering nd font used, the quality of the pearlized paper board stock, and the dimensions of the card all work extremely well together to make a superb card. Absolutely thrilled with it and will certainly order more and also a new design from tinyprints in the future."
"I was looking for a design that could be a "social" card rather than a business card, and this design was easy to adapt. And . . . red is my favorite color!"

PLAYERS: Frank McCourt, Matt Kemp, Fred Wilpon
TEAMS: New York Mets, Texas Rangers, Los Angeles Dodgers
TEAMS: New York Mets, Texas Rangers, Los Angeles Dodgers
With all the recent revalations of how Selig has aided the Wilpons maintain ownership on countless occasions, I felt this needed to be said: Selig is not helping the Mets; he is simply helping his buddy Fred. The job of the MLB commissioner is to keep everything running smoothly in several areas of the game. His goals are to keep the game both popular and economically sound. That is done is by keeping as many teams as possible competitive year in and year out. So when an owner's finances dry up, what shouldn't be done is give him every opportunity to remain the owner of a baseball team. In the situation with the Mets, Selig is letting a team in New York, the biggest market on earth, go down the tubes so Wilpon can maintain his ownership. Despite what he SHOULD do, Selig has instead provided Wilpon with a $25 million loan, given him an extention on repaying that loan, helped Wilpon and Katz get out of their deal with Einhorn and of course the reports we learned from our own Joe D.

Hideki Matsui hits first spring homer for A's,
Susan Slusser, Chronicle Staff Writer
Published 4:00 am, Monday, March 14, 2011
Oakland Athletics
Fan Zone

The A's rolled out what looked very much like their Opening Night lineup, and the result was nine runs, including Hideki Matsui's first homer of the spring. Daric Barton hit a two-run shot, and Cliff Pennington a three-run home run.
"Pretty sick," catcher Kurt Suzuki said of the offense. "Pretty cool, the possibility of all of us playing together all year."
Matsui, the A's new designated hitter, entered the day with just one hit in Cactus League play, but he had two hits, including the solo homer off Colorado's Huston Street in the third, and he walked twice.
"It felt good to get it out of the way," Matsui said of the homer, through translator Roger Kahlon. "All my at-bats today were good quality, but I feel actually a little bit of relief."
Matsui said he usually warms up as the spring goes along, and none of his teammates was worried about the slow start.
"You ask us, we knew it was just a matter of time," Suzuki said. "That ball went really far, and it was off their closer."
Manager Bob Geren was especially happy with Pennington's homer, considering he's coming off left shoulder surgery. Geren said that Pennington should start hitting right-handed his next game, if he faces a lefty.
Briefly: The A's are likely to move Gio Gonzalez's next outing to a minor-league game on Wednesday, Oakland's off day, and Trevor Cahill would start Thursday against the Cubs. That would put All-Star Cahill in line to start on Opening Night against Seattle. ... Joey Devine, who's experiencing some normal mid-spring dead-arm, will resume throwing today. ... Craig Breslow (hamstring strain) says he's getting closer to appearing in a game. ... The A's made their first cuts: pitchers Fautino De Los Santos, Pedro Figueroa, Willie Eyre, Joe Bateman, Gabe DeHoyos and Vinnie Chulk, and infielders Adrian Cardenas and Sean Doolittle.
Cactus League recap
Score: A's 9, Rockies 2
Notable: Coco Crisp had three hits, including a double, and he's batting .519 for the spring. ... Trevor Cahill allowed six hits, two walks and three runs in four innings, and he struck out six. He said he started to tire toward the end. ... First baseman Daric Barton, in his first game after missing six games with a sore leg, made a nice running play in the first inning and also homered.
Quotable: "I was struck emotionally. That's not something a human being does."
- DH Hideki Matsui, deadpan, after watching team chaplain Donnie Moore's annual "feats of strength," which include ripping up phone books and rolling frying pans up into tubes, plus a new one: Moore stacked blocks on manager Bob Geren's chest and smashed them with a sledgehammer.
Today's game: A's (Dallas Braden) at Indians (Justin Masterson), 1:05 p.m.

YP Civitan of Greensboro is Civitan International's first YP Club designed to provide community service and networking opportunities for young professionals aged 21 to 35 in Greensboro, North Carolina.
The worldwide mission of Civitan International is to build good citizenship by providing a volunteer organization of clubs dedicated to serving individual and community needs with an emphasis on helping people with developmental disabilities.
Civitan International is an organization of volunteer service clubs around the world, dedicated to helping people in their own communities. Civitans help wherever the need arises - from collecting food for a homeless shelter, to volunteering at their local retirement home, to building a playground for children with disabilities. Civitans have been helping people since the organization's founding in 1917, by a group of businessmen determined to making a difference in their community. The organization's founders settled on the name Civitan, coined from the Latin word civitas, meaning, "citizenship." "Builders of Good Citizenship" was a natural motto for the civic-minded group.
YP Civitan of Greensboro was chartered on June 25, 2013 as Civitan International's first YP Club and is sponsored by the Southeast Guilford Civitan Club. Since then, several other YP Civitan Clubs have been chartered.

This conversation is closed.
Why not make power poses the way you behave all the time?
If these poses are so good for increasing power and improving outcomes, increasing testosterone, and reducing stress and cortisol, why not adopt these power poses as your natural way of inhabiting the world? Why only do this just before an interview - why not all the time?
What would the social impact be if you assumed dominant poses all the time, regardless of with whom you are socializing?
The experimental data would suggest that merely adopting these poses, regardless of any mental intention or thought, is sufficient to produce the desired beneficial effect. Would doing this all the time "wear out" the effect, or strengthen the effect?
Would combining a mental intention - such as doing great at a job interview - with adopting the pose amplify the effect?

Not having Kirk or Picard references in WoW is nothing compared to the fact that there are absolutely ZERO references to Star Trek: Voyager. Boo hoo, the captains of TNG and TOS don't make any cameos... They left out an entire series of Star Trek! They have Enterprise (the worst Star Trek series) references, but they completely ignore Voyager, arguably the best series? I don't think so. The least they could have done was have some robots named Six of Nine or something. At least that way even non-Trekies could laugh at something.

Interview: Daniel Craig of 'Skyfall'
On style and Sam Mendes, and where Bond goes next
With his frame and face suggesting both bulk and delicacy -- the edge and the flat of the knife seen both at the same time -- but Daniel Craig was light and laughing as he sat to discuss "Skyfall," his third outing as James Bond, with us in Los Angeles. We spoke with Craig about the Bond legacy, the pleasures of having a great opposite number and where he can see Bond going next ...
MSN Movies: There's a great moment in the film where you leap from a destroyed section of a train into the train's cabin, pause ... adjust your cufflinks, and then keep going about your business. Is that mix of style and action for you one of the keys of Bond?
Daniel Craig: Yes it is, and it's getting it in at the right moments, and it's making it as real as possible, and keeping it kind of, you know ... I don't want to stop the movie to do that stuff; I want it to continue. But I do want a moment. We did a lot of work on the script to get moments of relief, release the pressure when the tension gets ... so we had a lot of fun with that.
Bing: Daniel Craig l Javier Bardem
When you heard that Mr. Mendes was going to be directing it, you certainly know him for his dramatic and stage work, was that exciting to you to see what he could do?
Definitely. I actually asked him to do it so it's my fault that he's there. I mean, I raised my hand to do it. If it had gone wrong I probably wouldn't have mentioned that, but he does such a wonderful job I feel l can.
Was it interesting to see him play with those larger scale tools?
I just knew he would and could ... I knew that he would have, he's got an incredible ability to sort of, you know, if you put 100 times the people in a room and chaos ensues. It doesn't always necessarily come together. He's got an incredible knack of kind of pulling that together, keeping it on the same page, and driving it forward, and that's why I wanted him to do the film.
Another big part of films like this in many ways are like a dance act in that you're so defined by the nemesis of the piece. And you got to work with Javier Bardem. How was that, shooting those scenes, doing those physical moments with him?
You know, like a dream, because I've wanted to work with him for as long as he's been around. He's an incredibly talented actor, a very funny very loving, charming man, great to work with, but he instills the part with some real depth but never forgets he's playing a Bond villain, so it's fun.
Everyone has the Bond they first saw and then the Bond they first loved, and there can be a differential there. I grew up and "The Spy Who Loved Me" was my first Bond, but then I grew to love "Goldfinger." What was your first Bond?
"Live and Let Die" was my first Bond and "Goldfinger" is probably ... I mean that was kind of the moment when everything came together.
The Bond films have such a great classic architecture -- the opening sequence, the opening song, all the action -- are you able to sit and watch them and enjoy them just as a fan? Or are you just too conscious of, "Oh, that is me up there"?
I mean, it's difficult to forget. That's just how it kind of is; I'm in every scene, but the moment I saw the rough cut of the movie -- Sam showed it to me quite a while ago now -- and the story worked. And that's all you kind of cared about, you just care about that because there's no special effects, there's no decent sound, the music's a temp score or all of that And you're watching it and you kind of and the story held together well, and that's it. We've done it, and that means it's going to kind of work out. Actors are terrible watching themselves. I mean it's kind of an awful thing to do. You're just watching the way you stand and you're not watching ... the kind of details that are so irrelevant to the movie.
Obviously it's rank hypothesizing at this point but where would you most like to see Bond go next?
Anywhere. We can go anywhere. In all seriousness, Sam's really set something up here; we've got some new characters, some old characters have come in ... I think we've got a sense of reality in the film, but we can be as wild as we want to, I think ...
