We lost Bob on July 12, 2012 to his battle with cancer which he documented, in his own very unique way. We believe the following from his blog demonstrates his humor, insight, ability to explain complex things in simple ways, nature to make you think. It's quintessential Bob.
Just to clear this up, for all you computer people.
Last time was "re-install OS and restore from backup".
This time is "install a different OS".
Next time is "migrate to the cloud".
Got it?
Yup, we got it!
Pictures of Bob are here
If you have some you would like to contribute you can add them yourself or email Michael Gettes or Steve Olshansky.
From Kevin Morooney at the Pennsylvania State University comes the story of the Penn State water bottle and the idea from Renee Shuey (also of PSU):
Renee and Bob were having a conversation. Eventually, Bob got a chance to speak. They were talking about what his condition was and what he was going to do to try and get better. Renee, of course, wanted to know what she could do to help. Bob told her that it was going to be a marathon, so perhaps she could provide water. So she got a water bottle with Penn State on it and once she explained what it was for, I asked if I could help by taking some pictures with it. I carried it around with me since that day, and have taken pictures of it all around campus, central PA, and even places where I've traveled while on business and pleasure. My family was quite helpful at times, as have work colleagues been. Everyone came to know what the bottle was for. In fact, I got asked twice the last two days why I was so down and in both cases all I had to say was that my water bottle friend passed away. They knew immediately that it was a big deal to me.
And, there are all the "Bob-isms"
"Innaresting ..."
"grumble, grumble"
"ummm, uh."
"Dunno, let's discuss."
"I su-pose"
"mmmore or less"
What others are saying:
Jeff Hodges - long time friend and more from Jeff about Bob's Stanford University work.
and another Twitter Feed
From Nathan Dors, University of Washington and Bob's manager (morning, July 16, 2012):
Subject: RL "Bob" Morgan
[Sent to all of UW-IT]
It is with deep sadness that I share the news that RL "Bob" Morgan passed away last Thursday, July 12, at the UW Medical Center.
RL Bob was receiving treatment related to myelodysplastic syndrome, a form of cancer for which he received a stem cell transplant in June.
Although his title was that of our identity architect, many of us revered him and labeled him "spiritual adviser". He brought wisdom, humor, and clearheadedness to the complex problems presented by online identity, and to the challenges of getting key people in higher education and industry to agree on the mechanics needed to enable it, so that ultimately everyone would trust it. His contributions here were immeasurable, involving the foundations of identity federation, as well as major projects like InCommon, Shibboleth, SAML, and much, much more.
In April, he was honored with the Internet2 President's Leadership Award in recognition of his vision and ability to lead, mentor, and collaborate with others, which he continued to do via email and on conference calls right up to his recent admittance to the hospital.
RL Bob leaves us a rich legacy of ideas and examples to work on and live by. Among the latter: generosity, reciprocity, mumbleocity, and simply knowing when to close the laptop and go enjoy what one loves most: family, friends, baking, soccer, reading, dry wit, and a myriad of other things in his case. For me and many others, he exemplified human flourishing; he will be missed. Immensely.
Now our thoughts, hearts, and sympathies turn to RL Bob's family: his wife Eve and daughters Annika and Julia. They are planning a memorial event for the weekend of July 28, and suggesting that remembrances be made to a college fund for the girls or to Mercy Corps. As soon as details are known, I will share those with the UW-IT community.

A new mother learns about nutrition in the western highlands of Guatemala. Photo by the author.
With this podcast series, we open a new front in our storytelling, adding the magic of audio narratives to our writing, photos, and videos. We're calling this series: Outrage and Inspire, storytelling from the author of the real hunger games trilogy – Council senior fellow Roger Thurow.
The central outrage of these stories is that we have brought famine, hunger, malnutrition, and stunting – such Medieval sufferings – with us into the 21st century. Yes, we have made progress over the past several decades, reducing by half the number of people dying of hunger. We will certainly celebrate successes in our stories. But still, three million children die every year of malnutrition and related diseases. And what about those who survive, what becomes of them? Well, one of every four children in our world today is stunted, either physically or mentally or both, from malnutrition in their earliest days and months and years. And get this: about half of our planet's entire population is malnourished in some manner – they are either chronically hungry (about 800 million people not getting enough calories for an active life every day); or micro-nutrient deficient (about two billion people lacking the proper vitamins and minerals in their diets for adequate growth of the brain or body); or severely overweight or obese (escalating toward two billion).
It is absurd, obscene – the darkest stain on our global conscience – that in our grand new Millennium, with so much incredible technology and communications capability literally at our fingertips, we tolerate such malnutrition in our world.
The outrages of hunger are many. But so, too, are the inspirations of people who confront – and conquer – hunger and malnutrition. The moms and dads and children, the farmers and fishers, the scientists and activists, the midwives and nutritionists and community health workers. They provide both the outrage and the inspiration – and the stories of this podcast series.
In this episode, we hear from new moms and moms-to-be about the universal craving for nutrition knowledge. From the western highlands in Guatemala, we learn how knowledge can be both power, and a burden. A narrative from The First 1,000 Days book.

If you're too young to remember when "Embrace of the Vampire" came out then I'm sorry for you. The 1995 flick where Alyssa Milano pretty much just got busy with anyone who came on screen was pretty much the deviant's "Titanic" when I was younger. But good news for the youth of today. A remake of the film is in the works and filming has officially begun with Sharon Hinnendael in the staring role. 99% sure Milano will not be making a surprise cameo in the film.
Oh Halle Berry, where did we go wrong? Not "we" like Halle Berry and I were ever an item. Not that I can confirm at least. I say no comment on the subject. You can draw your own conclusions. But I mean where did we go wrong that you won an Oscar just over ten years ago and now you're starring in "The Hive" which just landed the WWE as its co-financier and co-producer. What's next, Halle? Cinamax porn!? Actually that would be pretty cool.
"Screaming in High Heels" is a new documentary that tells the tale of 2 of the biggest B-movie scream queens of the 80's. Originally edited for TV the full on unrated version of the film will finally see the DVD treatment on August 28th of this year. It'll be a nice walk down memory lane for me to hear Linnea Quigley, Brinke Stevens and Michelle Bauer talk about the films that made me the man I am today. I should probably hate them shouldn't I.
Craig Bierko has been confirmed for the cast of "Scary Movie 5". I think we'll all sleep a little better tonight.
What is it about Stanley Tucci's name that makes me want to pinch a baby's cheeks? Not like in a creepy way, just like in an adorable way. This has gotten kind of weird. He's joined the cast of "Your Voice in My Head" and will play a psychiatrist who helps a self abusing woman, played by Emma Watson, heal her mental scars. Tucci Tucci Tucci! Come on, it's adorable.
I've seen the 1995 movie "Embrace of the Vampire" no less than a dozen times and I could not tell you what the hell it's about. All I remember is Alyssa Milano was nude for 90% of the film and had sex with just about everyone that was on screen. CineTel Films, who I've never heard of but are now my favorite studio, have decided it's time for a remake of the soft core classic. I wonder if Milano will have a cameo. God I hope so.
Chloe Moretz is kind of awesome. She was brutal in "Kick Ass", she was creepy as hell in "Let Me In" and she's pretty damn funny on "30 Rock". So now I'm excited about the "Carrie" remake because she's officially been offered the lead role. If there's anyone that can pull off a pig-blood prom dress it's her. I just hope it isn't after labor day. That's a fashion no-no.
If you didn't like "The Woman In Black" then I kind of want to punch you in the face. It scared the crap out of me. I'm not ashamed to admit it. I'm not going to punch you in the face if you don't buy the DVD when it's released in May though. I understand times are though and you can't drop money on every movie I like. Where the hell would you even keep the entire "Police Academy" series? There's like 9 films. That's so much shelf space.

The capped-memory resource sets limits for physical, swap, and locked memory. Each limit is optional, but at least one must be set.
Determine values for this resource if you plan to cap memory for the zone by using rcapd from the global zone. The physical property of the capped-memory resource is used by rcapd as the max-rss value for the zone.
The swap property of the capped-memory resource is the preferred way to set the zone.max-swap resource control.
The locked property of the capped-memory resource is the preferred way to set the zone.max-locked-memory resource control.
Applications generally do not lock significant amounts of memory, but you might decide to set locked memory if the zone's applications are known to lock memory. If zone trust is a concern, you can also consider setting the locked memory cap to 10 percent of the system's physical memory, or 10 percent of the zone's physical memory cap.

In this third installment in a series of articles asking, "Where have all the young people gone?" <MI>The Valley Reporter<D> will examine population demographics over the past two to three decades: statistics that might help explain the exodus of youth.
Who lives in The Valley? Who is moving here? More importantly, who is moving out? Where are the young families? What can account for Vermont's rapidly aging state and steadily decreasing birth rates?
Statistics indicate that in The Valley and Washington County, the 65-plus population is on the rise, while those ranging between 20 and 34 are dwindling out, making Vermont the most "rapidly aging state,' according to the Central Vermont Community Profile (CVCP).
According to the 2006 Valley Data Report, the median age in the Valley is 39.8. The median age for Washington County is 38.5 and for the state, 37.7. A regional Data Profile prepared by Central Vermont Regional Planning Commission reports that in 1970, there were 1,773 people between the ages of 18 and 64 in The Valley out of a total 3,239.
In 1980 that number increased to 3,244 out of 5,011 total population. In 1990 the number of 18- to 64-year-olds in The Valley and Washington County stood at 4,058, which over the next 10 years steadily decreased to 3,153. In 2000, the trend continues; those between 20 and 34 decreased to 3,709.
The number of workforce-age residents is dropping, while those over 64 continue to increase.
"The growth of the 65 and older population in Vermont is going to present challenges in providing services to older citizens in rural settings... the negative growth in those 18 and under for many counties will continue to challenge the education community...this pattern will also create real challenges for businesses that need to grow to meet labor needs now, but will experience a sharp decline in workforce as the population continues to age," according to the CVCP.
What is to blame for this mass youth exodus? While it seems that many homegrown Vermont kids stick around just long enough to get an education and a unique childhood, none of them seem to hang around to have children of their own.
Instead, the young workforce is being replaced by out-of-state retirees, moving to the quiet farm country free of sirens and cul-de-sacs. The Valley is a great place to slow down, maybe too slow for the young people.
The number of kids 18 and under is decreasing just about as fast as the working set. Between 1990 and 2000, The Valley and Washington County had a 2.45 percent decrease for the 18-and-under age group, compared to a measly 2.75 percent growth for the state.
The CVCP reports, "The housing shortage pushes young families to other states offering a more favorable balance between wages and housing costs. Vermont's median age is second highest in the nation."
Between 1990 and 2000 Washington County and The Valley saw an 8.87 percent increase in those 65 and older, and a 17.64 percent increase statewide. The Valley is a strong example of a larger, statewide trend but is still an anomaly considering the numerous recreational venues and seasonal attractions. Those lifts don't run themselves, after all.
Until next week, when The Valley Reporter examines the slow turnings of The Valley social scene -- a place where the lack of bars, restaurants and live music venues are so secret, they may not exist.

The McLaren Group has successfully argued that the fine levied against it by the FIA five years ago, when its Formula One team was caught with Ferrari's intellectual property, was a tax-deductible business expense.
After Ferrari design documents were found in the possession of Mike Coughlan, at the time McLaren Racing's chief F1 designer, the FIA World Motor Sport Council punished the team by excluding it from the 2007 world championship of constructors and imposed a fine of $100 million. This record fine was later reduced because the team was allowed to deduct its share of 2007 TV income and 2008 travel subsidies from the Formula One group, both of which were lost as a result of its expulsion from the championship. The total that was ultimately paid out as a fine was then valued at just under $52 million.
In submitting its report for its financial year ending on Dec. 31, 2007, which showed a loss of about $53 million, McLaren Racing argued that the fine was not a statutory penalty, but one incurred under FIA rules, making it a business expense. When Her Majesty's Revenue & Customs (HMRC) disagreed, McLaren appealed, leading to a decision being sought from a tax tribunal in London.
HMRC's solicitor, Akash Nawbatt, told the court, "The penalty arose from McLaren's interference with Ferrari's intellectual property. Such interference was not part of McLaren's trade or incidental thereto. The legitimate gathering of information was part of its trade, but the illicit gathering of information was not. McLaren said as much in its submissions to the World Motor Sport Council."
The opinions of two of the court's judges were divided, so the view of the presiding judge decided the matter. In his summary, Judge Charles Hellier stated, "This cost was not one imposed on McLaren, but one which it was contractually obliged to pay under contractual obligations undertaken for the purposes of its trade; it did not result from the action of an external regulator, but from a body to whose dictates it had agreed to submit as part of its trade and in order to gain income . . . The penalty was something which arose from its trade, was connected with its trade, and was incurred wholly and exclusively for the purposes of its trade."
A McLaren statement said, "McLaren Group is a successful U.K. company, which provides high-quality employment and substantial tax revenue. In 2007, McLaren Racing Ltd. was required to pay a penalty, following a breach of the International Sporting Code of the FIA. After consideration, a government tribunal has found that such a contractual penalty is tax-deductible. As a U.K.-registered company, McLaren will continue to comply with all relevant legislation."
The decision by the tax tribunal has been criticized by the Tax Justice Network, a British organization that campaigns for the closure of the nation's many tax loopholes. Its director, John Christensen, commented, "From a taxpayer's point of view, it's extraordinary that a company found guilty of cheating can have the fine deducted from its bill, so that the taxpayer loses out as a result of its activities."

By Hannah Armstrong, Christian Science Monitor
The exclusion of populist party Fanmi Lavalas and other contenders heightens concerns that the Haiti election will fail to introduce leaders closer to voters' core concerns.
In Camp Immaculate, a tent-city for many of the 1.5 million Haitians made homeless by the Jan. 12 earthquake, hundreds of protesters gather regularly to tap out rhythms with bits of debris and chant in the noon-day heat: "No voting under tents!" and "Down with Préval!"
Central to their anger is the belief that elections scheduled for Nov. 28 have been rigged in advance. These partisans of the popular leftist party Fanmi Lavalas (FL) blame an electoral commission appointed by President Rene Garcia Préval for banning the party from contesting the upcoming poll.
As the campaign season officially began today, the anger and disillusionment on display in places like Camp Immaculate was evidence of how few Haitians believe the process will deliver a fair outcome.
On top of banning the FL, the party of former President Jean-Bertrand Aristide that has won every election it has contested, the Provisional Electoral Committee (CEP) disqualified a number of candidates, among them the hip-hop star Wyclef Jean and former ambassador Raymond Joseph.
Maintaining the status quo?
Signs that this will not be a clean election have been in evidence for months. The US Senate Committee on Foreign Relations warned in a July report (pdf) that the exclusion of FL and the failure to reform the CEP could compromise the elections' legitimacy.
But US support for the election appears assured. "Peaceful and credible elections and the transfer of power to a new government will be key milestones of Haiti's progress," Susan Rice, US Ambassador to the United Nations, wrote in an editorial on Friday that was released amid growing alarm that the election is being stitched up for Mr. Préval's allies.
The international community, which is providing most of the election's $29 million price tag, "would rather work with Préval because he's the only one they know right now," says Marleine Bastien, a leader of the Haitian-American community in South Florida. Préval, who cannot run for another term, has endorsed former government construction agency director general Jude Celestin. Observers say almost all presidential candidates represent the ruling elite surrounding Préval.
"We in the US have not put pressure on the CEP to do the right thing and uphold democratic values in Haiti – which means allowing Lavalas to partake in elections," says Ms. Bastien, who is not an FL partisan but says all viable parties must be allowed to participate.
Mario Joseph, Haiti's most prominent international human rights lawyer, holds the UN responsible for tolerating practices that compromise the fairness of the country's elections. "They have supported this election selection, they have supported the exclusion of political parties, they have supported Mr. Préval in the choice of an electoral council without meeting with political parties," he says.
Préval builds ties with international community
Préval came to power in 2006 in the first vote following the ouster of Mr. Aristide, whose increasingly violent rule was marked by nationalization and wealth redistribution measures that alienated Haitian elites and international partners. Préval curried favor with international partners by privatizing state-owned companies and extending the mandate for the UN peacekeeping mission even as he lost domestic support.
Tensions boiled over in 2008, as food prices soared and riots broke out. Demonstrators stormed the presidential palace demanding the resignation of Préval and the departure of UN troops. The official turnout figure for April 2009 senatorial elections was just 11 percent, stark evidence of the lack of confidence in the system.
'Rebellion brewing'
Those elections were the first to exclude FL. Despite formally objecting, the international community continued to support the government which "gave the CEP a green light to keep excluding the government's political rivals," the Institute on Justice and Democracy in Haiti (IJDH) wrote in a report.
IJDH director Brian Concannon says UN and US support for the November elections is "a short-term expedient that's going to come back and haunt them in the long-term."
"The exclusion [of FL] will hurt not only Haiti and its people but it will also hurt all partners," adds Bastien. "I feel a lot of rebellion brewing under the surface."

While doing research for my presentation to the Foothills Herbal Society, spring fever hit me hard. As I gathered information and traveled around looking for fresh herbs, I decided to check out my garden.
Sure enough, I found a couple of cilantro seeds that had sprouted, a small but thickened patch of thyme beginning to creep and a few clumps of fresh chives trying hard to reach for the sun. Just seeing these few signs of spring gave me a jolt of joy. I can�t wait to get back out in the dirt.
During these cold months I�ve missed being able to step out my back door and clip a few fresh herbs to throw into whatever I�m cooking.
Luckily, you can find a wide variety of fresh herbs at the grocery store � basil, rosemary, chives, sage, cilantro and parsley can be easily purchased.
Of course, prices will vary depending on where you shop. I have found when shopping some of our local ethnic markets you can find better deals on certain herbs, fruits and vegetables. For instance, if shopping for cilantro, limes or avocados, try your local Mexican market. For dill, parsley, cilantro, shallots and garlic, try a local Laotian market. As an added bonus, you�ll discover other ingredients and products these markets offer and you�ll learn a lot other cultures. This will broaden your cooking skills as well.
So, get out there and explore. The promise of spring is just around the corner at all of our local markets. Try these recipes using fresh and dried herbs for an early spring break.
3 Tbs. fresh Italian parsley, finely chopped
3 Tbs. fresh dill, finely chopped
3 Tbs. fresh chives, finely chopped
3 ribs of celery, finely chopped
1 large cucumber, peeled, seeded and finely chopped
� cup sweet pickle relish
1 cup mayonnaise
1 (16-ounce) bag of dried ditalini pasta, cooked according package directions, rinsed and drained
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
In a large mixing bowl, add all of the chopped herbs, celery, cucumbers and sweet pickle relish. Mix well and add the mayonnaise. Mix again. Add in the pasta, mix until all the ingredients are coated and add salt and pepper to taste.
� tsp. oregano
� tsp. basil
� tsp. rosemary
� tsp. kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 pinch red pepper flakes
2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
� cup extra virgin olive oil
In a small bowl, mix together the dry spices. Add crushed garlic, stirring to combine and moisten the herbs.
Transfer herb mixture to a small dish or bowl. Pour olive oil over herb mixture.
Serve with fresh bread.
NOTE FROM CATHEY: This mixture of herbs without the olive oil is also great to mix with unsalted butter to make butter balls to serve with meats, poultry and fish.

When you first look at this painting, you imagine it as two women set against one scene. But then you notice the frames in the picture are a little off and wonder if there's some Photoshopping or digital manipulation going on but nope, there's none of that either. It's just clever use of double exposure in film photography. A perfect blend of combining two pictures into one.
The photograph, taken by Redditor Thor86, just uses film to pull off the trick. I love photo trickery using old analog methods.

Obama blames GOP for government shutdown over 'ideological crusade'
WASHINGTON >> President Barack Obama says House Republicans have shut down the federal government over an "ideological crusade" against his health care law.
Obama is speaking in the Rose Garden on the first day of the government shutdown. He says the longer the shutdown continues, the worse the impact will be.
The president says Republicans should not be able to hold the entire economy "hostage." He is urging them to reopen the government quickly and allow furloughed federal employees to go back to work.
The government shut down because Congress did not pass a funding bill ahead of Monday's midnight deadline for the end of the 2013 fiscal year.
Earlier Tuesday, Obama sent federal workers a letter lamenting that they had become "punching bags" in Washington's partisan fiscal fights. About 800,000 federal workers are being forced off the job.
Obama says that if the shutdown continues, it will make it more difficult to recruit talented people for government jobs.

As Diana Hess learned that airplanes had slammed into the twin towers in lower Manhattan on Sept. 11, 2001, her first instinct was to cancel her classes for the day. But before she could, the University of Wisconsin education professor began receiving frantic calls from her students – pleading with her to hold class as planned.
"They were concerned about how to teach about what had just happened," Ms. Hess says. Her students were student-teachers who taught in classrooms – from kindergarten to 12th grade – in the mornings and attended college courses in the afternoon. "They had little experience with events of this scale and scope, and they wanted to get help on how to teach about the event with their children right away," she adds.
It was clear early on to Hess that textbooks alone were not going help teachers and students make sense of the events of 9/11. But what was she going to tell her students? How do you teach 9/11?
That question launched Hess on a decade-long study on how this pivotal event in current American history is being taught across the country. Her most recent findings were published Thursday.
Hess found that grappling with 9/11 has forced educators to look to new, more immediate, resources. They have had to remain flexible curators of a heavy stream of audio, video, long- and short-form journalism, and even in-person presentations, to adequately teach a historical event that remains current.
The 9/11 attacks are a commonly required topic in schools – they are specifically mentioned in 21 states' official standards for social studies – but textbooks are often limited in space, so many have little meaningful detail about the actual attack, writes co-author Jeremy Stoddard, associate professor at the William & Mary School of Education.
Efforts to put the events in a larger context, such as domestic or international terrorism, are also hit-and-miss, says Mr. Stoddard. For example, one text defines terrorism as attacks on civilians, yet cites the attack on the USS Cole – a military target – as an example.
Eschewing textbooks as ineffective, many teachers have turned to an ample supply of supplemental materials from a wealth of sources, says Stoddard. "These don't have to pass state textbook scrutiny and aren't constrained by the space restrictions of official textbooks."
Often, these materials tend to reflect the concerns of the organization producing them, he says. For example, a group called Facing History and Ourselves is focused on tolerance and Holocaust work, "so the materials dwell on developing tolerance towards others, in particular Muslims." Another group, Choices for the 21st Century, has developed extensive materials for teaching about 9/11 from a foreign policy perspective.
And Learn360 offers streaming video culled from some 60 sources such as the National Geographic Channel, PBS's "Reading Rainbow," and the Encyclopedia Britannica.
Teachers have to be creative in dealing with such a fluid and outsize event, says Terrence Sowers, literature and humanities teacher at Summit International Preparatory high school in Arlington, Texas. Mr. Sowers is teaching a month-long unit on 9/11 for the first time this spring. He wanted to focus on artistic expression in his humanities class, he says, and found that he had to cobble together the teaching materials from a variety of sources, mostly from the Internet.
One invaluable resource turned up in his own school – the mother of a student who had been on the street beneath the towers as they fell. She spoke to the class on Wednesday, he says, "and it was so much better than anything they could read or even watch on TV," he says. "These kids are too young to remember much themselves, so this makes it very real for them."
Many college students are also too young to recall much from Sept. 11, 2001, says Nico Slate, assistant professor of history at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. "They have vague memories of it at best," he says, pointing out that educators are now moving into an era of students for whom 9/11 must be taught as an historical rather than a current event.
Yet, he notes, the book is hardly closed on what it all means, with new information and events changing the historical narrative all the time."It can be taught from so many perspectives," says Mr. Slate. "This is both the challenge and the opportunity."

Cold days…
Icy cold temperatures are still blanketing the Northeast. But back in Southern California the only serious frost remaining is between Kobe Bryant and Dwight Howard.
It's an axiom in business that no one is irreplaceable. And somewhere Steve Jobs is thinking "Wrong again, suckers."
In a radio interview today about the Super Bowl, Jackie Harbaugh said. "I know one is going to win and one is going to lose but I really would like it to end in a tie. Can the NFL do that?" Paging Bud Selig!
Sammy Sosa thinks he belongs in the Baseball Hall of Fame. Even Manti T'eo thinks "that's delusional."
Hardest thing to believe about this Manti T'eo story? Maybe that in a era of "friends with benefits," a young man who is a good looking star athlete would be willing to have a girlfriend without benefits.
The San Jose Sharks are 3-0. Which means that despite the strike the team is still ready to have a great season and then disappoint their fans in the playoffs.
Asked a question about John Boehner's contention that Obama is trying to annihilate the GOP, White House spokesman Jay Carney said that is not the President's goal, and that he "would object" if the GOP was destroyed. What he didn't add was "anyway, the Republicans seem to be doing a good job of that on their own."
John Mackey, CEO of Whole Foods, told Mother Jones, "Climate change is perfectly natural and not necessarily bad." Wonder the reaction if you quoted that line at Whole Foods to the cashier next time you forget to bring your own bag.
American Idol has done the impossible – make most Americans miss Paula Adbul.
Two men are suing Lance Armstrong and his book publishers for fraud and false advertising because they say his two memoirs are full of lies. Wonder how long it will take bookstores to move all remaining copies to the "Fantasy" section.
or, (with an assist from my friend James Brady), considering the biotech involved, maybe the books should be in the "Science Fiction" section…
Did she or didn't she? Now some say Beyonce was not lip-synching at President Obama's inaugural, but just singing along to a pre-recorded track. How long until the GOP calls for a congressional investigation?
In New Mexico, state Rep. Cathrynn Brown introduced a bill where a woman who aborted a pregnancy resulting from rape would be charged with a felony for "tampering with evidence." Wow. Proving that today's GOP doesn't even need men to be anti-woman.Explore posts in the same categories: Uncategorized

Whenever I play audio from any player (Banshee, Rhythmbox, VLC) I can't do anything like browsing the web, playing a little game or working on documents without hearing this crackling sounds. To define the sound a little bit better... It seems that it slows a bit down but wants to keep up with the normal speed.
This about describes the audio setup of my computer.
Code: Select all
Audio: Card-1: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI Redwood HDMI Audio [Radeon HD 5000 Series] driver: snd_hda_intel
Card-2: C-Media CM8738 driver: snd_cmipci
Sound: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture ver: 1.0.24
EDIT June 12th: in a Launchpad reported bug (#345627) one sentence desribes pretty good what I think is the cause: These anomalies are due to buffering and clock adjustment calculations that incorrectly assume that the underlying hardware is well-behaved (source: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour ... bug/345627). This Launchpad bug should be solved by Ubuntu Jaunty Jeopard. But it is has gotten worse since I switched from Linux Mint 12 32bit to Linux Mint 13 64bit. Although some other, larger, issues solved by switching to the new Linux Mint/MATE, I'm not going back.
Is this a buffering problem? If yes, how can I increase this "buffer"?
Is my system perhaps not "suited" for a 64 bit version of Linux?

Do you ever start out to make one dish and then end up making something entirely different? I started out to make a lemon chicken casserole with green beans and new potatoes, but then remembered that I had used all the lemons making lemonade. I decided to substitute limes, but then that meant I had to change up the spices. Once I had changed the spices, I decided I needed to switch out the veggies for something that would go better with my new seasonings…and by the time I was done the only thing left from my original recipe was the chicken.
The Cilantro-Lime Chicken Casserole came together quickly, which was nice since I spent a little bit of time changing my mind about what to make. I will make the lemon chicken casserole on a another day, probably after I set out to make orange chicken and realize that I am out of oranges. 🙂
Alea's Cilantro-Lime Chicken Casserole
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 6 chicken thighs
- 1/4 teaspoon seasoned salt (how to make seasoned salt)
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 2 cups cooked rice (how to quickly cook rice)
- 1 3/4 cups corn, or 15 3/4 ounce can, drained
- 1 3/4 cups black beans, drained (how to cook dried beans)
- 2 Roma tomatoes, diced
- 1/4 cup onion, diced
- juice and zest of one lime
- 1/4 cup cilantro, shredded
- 1/4 cup chicken or vegetable broth (how to make chicken broth)
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
- Add the oil to a frying pan. Place chicken thighs in pan and sprinkle with seasoned salt, garlic powder, and pepper. Brown chicken on both sides.
- Combine rice, beans, corn, tomato, and onions in a greased roasting pan.
- Combine lime juice, zest, chicken broth, cilantro, honey, and cumin in a small bowl.
- Place chicken on the rice and bean mixture. Drizzle lime mixture over the chicken and rice mixture.
- Bake at 450 degrees for 30 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.

Happy Friday! Casey here, but not for long. Today, I have a guest – the funny and talented Meggan Connors. Meggan has just released a new novel – Jessie's War – but you have to wait until later to find out more.
Oh, and in case you're wondering about the saucy pirate wench reference, that is my loving nickname for Meggan. Her blog posts are a bright spot in my day. I love a fellow snark artist and I sit at her knee hoping to be as cool as she is!
Without further adieu – I give you Meggan, saucy wench and sexy shoe mistress!
Thanks for allowing me to encroach on your time, Casey! I really appreciate it.
So, I wracked my brain, searching for inspiration on what to post on this blog. After all, every time I read The Seven Scribes, I'm continually impressed by how knowledgeable, funny, and just plain cool they are.
As for me, I can be all of those things, I suppose, just not always on the same day. Or on command. Some days, I overwork my one lonely synapse until steam comes out my ears and I finally just say, "Oo, shiny!" and move on.
And, just when I thought I was going to have to say, "Oh, shiny!" again, it hit me! I can talk about inspiration!
See, I get asked about inspiration a lot. What inspires you to write? Where do you draw inspiration from?
Let's think about these answers.
The answer to the first question is: well, if I don't write, I just hang out in my head and replay the same scene over and over until I finally write it down. It can be a distraction at work, so I put it down on paper and then it's done and I can move on. That's how it started, anyway.
But what inspires me? It's all sorts of stuff (like that word? It's super specific, right? Stuff could mean anything. Stuff could mean Regency era pantaloons. It doesn't, in this case. After all, I specialize in Victorians.)
Sometimes it's little things, like watching television. I might get an idea for a book that way.
Sometimes, it's bigger things. About a year ago, I went on a road trip with the bestie. It was the first time away from kids in forever, and my first girls-only trip since college. We went to a spa in California. You could say it was inspiring. It was definitely eye-opening.
Now, I've been married since I was twenty-two, and well, I'm not twenty-two anymore. I hadn't seen flirting in the wild for a long time. It was seriously like watching caged lions dance around one another. I was supposed to be the wingman, but really, I was the voice of reason. Husband claims that the men probably thought of me as something a little more restrictive than a wingman (I take umbrage at the term grenade, but, let's face it, it was true).
In any case, as I listened to this flirting, I laughed my head off and texted myself some of the lines they were throwing back and forth. In a matter of minutes, I had a romantic comedy plotted out in its entirety, which one day I plan to write. Also, a murder mystery. Sadly, hot friend doesn't make it in the murder mystery. Meh. If you won't listen to your grenade, well…
I could make an entire career out of that one trip.
Inspiration is everywhere. It's a matter of paying attention and seizing the moment. So, bring along the smart phone, the notebook and pen, or the digital recorder. You never know when inspiration will strike.
Carpe diem, friends. Take good notes.
Meggan Connors is a wife, mother, teacher, and award-winning author. When she's not distracted by shiny things, she can be found reading, writing, or hiking in the woods with her kids. Unless it's cold. Or windy. Or too hot. Or she's not dressed appropriately. Then she can be found looking at cute shoes online.
Here's the blurb for her latest release, Jessie's War, a western steampunk romance out from Musa Publishing.
She's about to become a pawn in a brutal game between nations…
The American Civil War has raged for more than ten years. The outcast daughter of a famous inventor, Jessica White has struggled to salvage what little remains of her life. Then, one cold winter night, the lover she'd given up for dead returns, claiming the Union Army bought the plans for her father's last invention. But he's not the only one who lays claim to the device, for the Confederacy wants the invention as well. Both sides will kill to have it.
…And only he can save her.
As an agent for the Union Army, Luke Bradshaw is a man who will use whomever and whatever is at his disposal in order to complete his mission. An attack by Confederate soldiers ensures that Jessie will turn to him for help, but Luke can't help but wonder about the secrets she keeps–and if those secrets will ultimately prove fatal.

LEGO Batman! Prince of Persia! The Last Blade! Curling! If Nintendo had announced this week's downloadable titles during their E3 2012 press conferences, maybe we wouldn't all be trudging around like sad puppies today.
I mean check out that lineup! You've got the original platforming action hero, an SNK arcade classic, a sport that Canadians really enjoy, and Batman! And that's just the tip of the iceberg, really. I didn't even mention the cat puzzle game or the Art of Balance!
And hey, there's a new Dinosaur Office video from the College Humor folks. Between that and tons of Nintendo E3 videos, your 3DS might be the one to watch this weekend. Bring tissues.
The Last Blade
Platform: WiiWare
Price: 800 Wii Points
Originally released in 1997, The Last Blade is a fighting game set in the "Bakumatsu" period of Japanese history, where 10-plus swordsmen are fighting for different purposes. The game is similar to its predecessors from the Samurai Showdown series released by the same company, but it differs in allowing players to choose between two sword types; the damage-focused "Power" or "Speed," which promotes speedy play. Other game elements include maneuvers like "Repel," which allows players to deflect enemy attacks, and "Sublime Slash," which cancels "Super Slice" and can be combined with "Super Secret Slice." Don't miss out on powerful -moves like "Super Secret Slice" and "Hidden Secret Slice."
Curling Super Championship
Platform: DSi / 3DS
Price: 500 DSi Points / $4.99
Curling is the world famous sport in which players slide stones across a sheet of ice toward a target area, the "house". Two teams, each of four players, take turns sliding heavy stones, also called "rocks". You can also challenge your friends to a multiplayer game to show everyone who the best player is!
Cat Frenzy
Platform: DSi / 3DS
Price: 200 DSi Points / $1.99
This adorable and relaxing puzzle introduces totally new twists to the popular slide and match-3 mechanics and, of course, lots of cats. Slide rows or columns of cute, cuddly cats until you create a chain of three or more cats of the same kind to pull them out of the well. The game features a Mission and Quick-play mode with a combined 140 levels and an explanation of all the rules in a quick tutorial. The Mission mode provides new challenging objectives in each level, such as: clear the board with only one slide, pull out all the shining cats, make a six-cat chain reaction. You need to accomplish the objective in order to advance to the next level. The Quick-play mode is all about beating your high score, and there are no restrictions on how to play. Just remember that longer chains can trigger funny bonuses and score you more points. The game will engage you in hours of blasting fun, even if you are not a cat person!
Prince of Persia
Platform: 3DS
Price: $4.99
Play one of gaming's most loved platformers. The classic Prince of Persia is now available for download. Relive this classic platforming experience, often heralded as a pioneer of the platforming genre. This re-release is faithful to the original, complete with the dashing acrobatics of the Prince that made the game famous. Traverse sprawling levels, dodge deadly traps such as spikes and guillotines, and clash swords with palace guards – all before facing the evil Grand Vizier and rescuing the princess. But be quick: you only have one hour. The sands of time are flowing….
Art of Balance TOUCH!
Platform: 3DS
Price: $6.99
Grab your stylus and build a balanced stack in this physics-based puzzler! Puzzle games must be addictive. This was our top priority during the development of the game. That's why we designed 200 levels that not only challenge your skills but also your imagination. With its perfect touch controls Art of Balance TOUCH! is easy to pick up and hard to put away. Seeking a real challenge? Then try out the new endurance mode and drive your score ever higher. Art of Balance TOUCH! brings the ultimate "just one more puzzle" experience to your Nintendo 3DS.
LEGO Batman 2: DC Superheroes
Platform: 3DS
Batman and Robin return in LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes, the highly-anticipated sequel to LEGO Batman: The Videogame. This time the Dynamic Duo join forces with other famous DC super heroes including Superman, Wonder Woman and Green Lantern to stop the notorious villains Lex Luthor and The Joker from destroying Gotham City.

Obagi Experts Shed Light on Dull Skin
07.23.2013, 9:27 CDT | Posted In: Signs of Aging, Texture, Uneven Skin Tone & Dark Spots, Health & Beauty, Skin Care
Wouldn't it be nice to have no need for makeup? We're talking about stepping out every day with gorgeous, glowing skin. Recently, we sat down with our own Obagi Education Managers, Aimee and Perri, to talk about skin dullness, why and when it occurs and how to restore skin to its naturally radiant appearance.
When it comes to skin care and Obagi® products, few know more than Aimee and Perri. They are responsible for educating our staff and physicians about all things Obagi. With a range of knowledge on skin care issues including fine lines and wrinkles, melasma, acne, rosacea, dry skin, oily skin and everything in between, Perri and Aimee were the perfect pair to discuss one of your skin care concerns—dull skin.
What causes dull skin?
Obagi Experts: Dull skin is often caused by two things—lack of hydration and a buildup of dead skin cells. As we age, the natural hydration our skin creates in our youth, from GAG's—or glycosaminoglycans—can decrease due to the aging process. One of the first things you can do to combat surface dullness and dryness is find a non-occlusive moisturizer like Obagi Hydrate™, which is a great compliment when patient's skin feels tight and dry. And as always, sunscreen is a must to prevent and ward off future sun damage and aging to the skin.
In addition to a lack of natural hydration, an excess buildup up of dead skin cells (that make up 90% of the epidermis), and a slower epidermal cycle can also cause a dull appearance on the skin. As we grow older, chronological age, sun exposure, and free radial damage can all cause that cellular turnover process to slow down. Dead skin cells on the surface of the outermost layer of your skin scatter light, causing the skin to appear dull and lifeless.
Some people notice that at different times of the month and seasons, their skin fluctuates between glowing and dull—what causes this?
Obagi Experts: Your skin is sensitive to its environment. The winter months can wreak havoc on skin. Cooler, dryer weather deprives skin of vital moisture and is exacerbated by going in and out of the cold and into heated environments like your house or office building. Less moisture in the air means less moisture in your skin.
Alternatively, in the summer months, more people spend time outdoors, exposing their skin to UVA/UVB rays and free radicals, resulting in not only excess oiliness and loss of glow, but photodamage as well.
In addition to seasonal changes, your body's hormonal changes can influence your endocrine system, creating hormonal fluctuations which influence your skin. At different times of the month, hormonal shifts affect angiogenesis, which is the creation of new blood vessels. Decreased circulatory activity, a lack of blood flow to tissues, can contribute to a superficial dull, sallow appearance.
It's a common concern that skin will become more dull-looking with age. How do you prevent this?
Obagi Experts: With proper skin care such as exfoliation, sun protection, and topical antioxidants, you can help minimize many of the extrinsic signs of aging that affect the appearance of your skin. To truly limit dull skin, you need to ensure that cells, specifically skin cells, are turned over optimally. Try using a keratolytic agent such as retinoids, retinols or AHA/BHA's. These ingredients will help transform skin that has been affected by the aging process. The Obagi Nu-Derm® System is a great choice with products that exfoliate, brighten skin tone, hydrate and contain a broad spectrum sunscreen.
Can facials help to treat dull skin?
Obagi Experts: If the facials are done regularly and include an exfoliating treatment that involves a keratolytic agent, and when needed treatments like microdemabrasion, peels, AHA/BHA's, retinoids and some antioxidants can also help give skin a healthy glow.
Should I make adjustments in my lifestyle and diet to help prevent dull skin?
Obagi Experts: Yes! Maintaining a healthy diet and an active lifestyle are also great ways to improve circulation, and contribute to the overall health and appearance of your skin.
Limit alcohol, caffeine, nicotine, and as always, it's a great recommendation to drink plenty of water to hydrate from the inside out. A healthy diet, rich in fiber, lean protein, antioxidants (plenty of fruits and vegetables) supports healthy skin and a radiant glow.
And don't forget, the body and skin renew itself at night, so let yourself unwind, reduce your stress level, and get plenty of sleep!
For more information about how you can prevent and treat dull skin speak with a skin care physician.

The History Channel tapped into an underserved market and came up with a blockbuster miniseries earlier this year in The Bible. The rumors of a sequel understandably peaked after the reception of the original; Hollywood likes nothing more than Roman numerals after a title, which is a bit more ironic than usual in this case. This time, though, the sequel moves to NBC, which outbid The History Channel for the follow-up:
The Bible is making the jump from cable to network TV, as Comcast's (CMCSA) NBC said it has struck a deal for a sequel to History's surprise spring hit. NBC's version will be titled A.D.: Beyond the Bible and will pick up after Christ's death, though after that it's pretty open.
An expensive and overtly religious production isn't an obvious fit for a major network these days. Those channels today lean on talent-show TV, which doesn't require high-paid actors and special effects. The Bible, though, comes with a massive built-in audience and a unique and powerful marketing machine. The 10-hour miniseries, produced by reality-TV king Mark Burnett and his wife, Roma Downey, won a huge following, in part by screening previews for religious leaders of U.S. megachurches. Before the première, some pastors even showed their flocks 90-minute making-of documentaries, while Christian groups bought ads in Times Square to tout the show.
Burnett and Downey tried to remain as faithful to the source material as possible, albeit not without some interesting flourishes — such as the martial-arts angels that kicked butt in Sodom and Gomorrah, for instance. The installments in the first miniseries covered a few millenia between Abraham and the Resurrection, which meant a significant amount of narration and a telescoping of events. Nevertheless, thanks to the dearth of Bible-based entertainment over the last several decades, Burnett and Downey found themselves a huge audience and an avalanche of gratitude from the faithful.
What isn't clear is what the source material will be for another miniseries … and the title Beyond the Bible gives the impression that it's going to be a lot less moored in Scripture than its predecessor. The miniseries ended with Jesus' ascension and the Pentecost, which is the end of the Gospels. What's next? Acts, of course, and the letters of Paul, but the scope of the production will have to shrink dramatically between source and sequel. Besides, those are actually in the Bible, not "beyond" it. Perhaps it's a historical miniseries about the spread of Christianity, but based on what source material?
Erick Erickson has been having some fun speculating on an NBC version of the Bible:
The Apostle whom Jesus loved? They'll explore that relationship. #NBCBibleChanges
— Erick Erickson (@EWErickson) July 2, 2013
In NBC's Bible series, King Herod and Pontius Pilate will both wear pink sneakers.
— Erick Erickson (@EWErickson) July 2, 2013
NBC picks up Bible Series. Rumor is they're in talks with Wendy Davis to play God.
— Erick Erickson (@EWErickson) July 2, 2013
Lot, God, and the angels will be portrayed as ruthless bigots in the scene about Sodom. #NBCBibleChanges
— Erick Erickson (@EWErickson) July 2, 2013
If Burnett and Downey are still exec-producing the miniseries sequel, they have earned the benefit of the doubt. If not, well, all bets are off. At the very least, this purchase by NBC demonstrates that Hollywood has ignored a very lucrative market for a long time, and maybe Hollywood has started to figure that out.

Visitors have gathered by the hundreds to watch Mount St. Helens blow off steam, and so far the volcano has not disappointed.
MOUNT ST. HELENS NATIONAL MONUMENT, Washington Visitors have gathered by the hundreds to watch Mount St. Helens blow off steam, and so far the volcano has not disappointed.
But the weather was about to put a damper on the show: After days of clear views of steam bursts amid mounting signs of a larger eruption, the National Weather Service was predicting mostly cloudy skies, with rain likely by Tuesday night.
Foul weather also could hamper monitoring of the volcano's vital signs, blocking visual observation and possibly the sampling of gas emissions that could be precursors to a more powerful eruption that scientists said could happen at any moment.
"Visual observations are very important," U.S. Geological Survey spokeswoman Catherine Puckett said Tuesday. "It definitely affects the ability to see if an eruption has occurred."
Monday was another field day for volcano watchers at the Coldwater Ridge Visitors Center, at 8.5 miles from the peak the closest tourists could get.
"Wow. It was amazing," said Alex Turchiano, 9. "I was hoping to see lava so I could see the trees fall down and the lava flow into the water. I wanted to see what it was going to do, whether it would stop or keep going."
The 40-minute steam burst he saw was far less dramatic. Scientists stopped short of calling it an eruption because it was almost entirely vapor, rather than fresh volcanic material.
Even in the event of a larger eruption, scientists said there was hardly any chance of a repeat of the mountain's lethal 1980 explosion or of Hawaiian-style lava flows.
The midmorning steam burst, which followed swelling in the 1,000-foot-high lava dome in the crater, rose to 10,000 feet, nearly 2,000 feet above the 8,364-foot high point on the rim. A smaller one rose over the rim in the afternoon.
Runoff from a melting glacier formed a pond about 120 feet across just south of the dome in the crater, and it was bubbling at the center, Puckett said Tuesday. New cracks were developing in much of the dome and rocks as hot as 122 degree Fahrenheit tumbled off the growing mound and into the water.
In foul weather, scientists would likely be unable to fly over the crater to sample volcanic gases as they have, but would look to earthquake monitoring devices and equipment that measures ground deformation, among other things.
Guy Medema, a seismic analyst at the University of Washington's Seismology Lab in Seattle, said earthquakes of magnitude 2 and 3 continued after the first steam burst, unlike a hiatus in seismic activity for several hours following a steam eruption Friday.
"It apparently didn't release enough stress to shut the earthquakes down," Medema said.
Scientists were expecting such bursts as superheated rock comes into contact with runoff from melting snow and ice.
"Now most of us are convinced there's fresh magma (molten rock) down there," hydrologist Carolyn Driedger said.
Since Sept. 23, thousands of tiny earthquakes have shaken the mountain, and several steam eruptions have occurred, the most seismic activity at the peak since the months following the 1980 blast.

Signs and Postings
The university takes pride in its Spanish Renaissance architectural heritage and beautiful grounds, which reflect campus tradition and values. Flyers, posters, and signs are frequently used to publicize events, but their proliferation can negatively impact the environment as well as detract from the beauty of our campus landscape. Individuals are urged to use sustainable materials and consider electronic media to reduce these impacts. The following protocols are intended to establish a balance between desire for publicity and USD's commitment to a sustainable environment.
These protocols apply to all student, faculty, and staff postings on the USD campus. Promotional materials are allowed only for events which have been approved by Associated Students or a recognized student organization, Student Affairs, or USD administrative office. Postings within the college or a school must be approved by the appropriate dean's office or an appointed advisor.
Outside organizations or parties that host events on campus may post printed material relating to the event on university property only if doing so is permitted in the party's contract with USD or is otherwise approved in writing by the appropriate university liaison to the outside organization or party. Any such posting must comply with these protocols. All other postings by outside organizations or parties must be submitted to Student Affairs for approval and permitted locations.
A violation of these protocols will result in corrective action as appropriate under the circumstances. For employees, corrective action may include verbal warnings, written warnings or other appropriate disciplinary action. For students, corrective action will be imposed in a manner consistent with the university's Student Code of Rights and Responsibilities or other applicable rules. If the violation is committed by an individual who is not an employee or student, corrective action within the reasonable control of the university will be initiated.
The following protocols apply to temporary signs posting announcements. These protocols do not apply to or govern the distribution of materials such as leaflets on campus. Questions regarding permanent signage for buildings, room identification, or directional markings should be addressed to Planning Design and Construction in Facilities Management.
- Use of the USD logo is restricted to official publications and promotional items of the university as outlined in the Official Visual Identity and Communications Style Manual.
- Posted materials must include the name of the sponsoring organization or department and display a stamp indicating that they have been approved for posting by the appropriate dean or vice president or designees.
- Materials may be posted up to one week prior to an event and must be removed within 24 hours after the completion of the event. Removal and recycling are the responsibility of the group posting the materials.
- Postings are not allowed on sidewalks, buildings, walls, doors, windows, display cases, furnishings, fountains, fences, trees and shrubs, planters, poles, cars, permanent signage, or any other architectural feature, with exceptions noted below.
- Postings at campus athletic venue locations are managed by the Department of Athletics.
- Postings in student housing areas are managed by Residential Life and Student Affairs.
- Exceptions to these protocols may be made under special circumstances with the approval of the appropriate dean or vice president in consultation with the Office of University Design.
- The university reserves the right to remove postings and signs on campus that are in violation of these protocols.
Kiosks and Bulletin Boards
- Kiosks are for the purpose of posting information for campus events. These are located at the Student Life Pavilion, Camino/Founders patio and in front of the Kroc Institute for Peace & Justice. Guidelines for posting on these kiosks are outlined on the Student Life Facilities website: http://www.sandiego.edu/ucslp/
- All student event and organization postings must be approved and stamped by University Centers and Student Activities, Hahn University Center 205.Flyers for events sponsored by academic departments require approval and stamp by the appropriate Deans office.
- Flyers must be for events open to the Campus Community and sponsored by a registered student organization or university department.
- Campus bulletin boards are for the purpose of posting information for campus events and sponsored programs. These bulletin boards are located in the Hahn University Center and Student Life Pavilion as well as Serra, Camino and Founders Halls.
- The size of flyers on campus bulletin boards should not exceed 11x17 and are limited to one per bulletin board. Flyers are not allowed on interior floors, walls, windows, doors or furnishings.
- Indoor posters are allowed on bulletin boards with the approval of appropriate departments and administrators. Posters may not exceed 22x28 inches and are not allowed on interior floors, walls, windows, doors, or furnishings.Faculty may post individual announcements on their office doors.
- Student event banners may be sized up to 3x6 feet. Banners exceeding this limit must be approved by the Vice President for Student Affairs or his/her designee.
- Student event banners may be hung by Missions Crossroads, Missions Parking Structure railing, Camino/Founders courtyard gates, Serra Hall third-floor railing, Maher Hall third-floor railing, and Olin Hall bridge railing. Removable tape, such as blue painter's tape, must be used to secure banners.
- Custom banners designed for sponsored conferences or events must be coordinated with the USD liaison/facility scheduler and approved by University Design. The size and location of the banner must be approved in advance in writing by the appropriate USD liaison to the outside organization.
Event and Conference Signage
- When an event venue is reserved, it is the responsibility of the USD liaison to communicate these protocols in writing to the requesting parties.
- Signs at the entrance kiosks and signs to direct off-campus attendees to parking and event venues on campus must be requested through Parking Services, who will determine the number of signs allowed and their placement.
- Freestanding signs, stanchions, A-frames, easels, lawn signs, etc., may only be used for campus-wide events and administrative announcements. Use and location of these sign types must receive prior approval from the Office of University Design.
University Marquees
- The Office of University Scheduling has the authority to determine the maximum number of messages that may be posted on a marquee at any given time. Inquiries about this policy may be forwarded to the Office of University Scheduling at x7574, or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Pacman will not upgrade, modify, nor change system configuration files.
In short, Pacman will not automatically reconfigure your system for you. (Again, this is a feature, not a flaw.)
This might (in some cases) cause a confusion.
A .pacsave file is created during a package removal (pacman -R, which is also called automatically by pacman -U and pacman -Su)
when the pacman database indicates that a certain file owned by the package should be renamed with a .pacsave extension if it was previously modified by the user.
(Taken from http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pac … ave_Files)
is like masturbation...it's good in the beginning, but in the end, you realize
you've just fkd yourself
Despite pacman not being an "automatic system maintenance program", a large portion of these steps can be automated.
Pacmatic will check the news for you before updates, warn you about -Sy, and pester you to take care of pacnew files. I'm working on a feature that will recommend which AUR packages need rebuilding.
See https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=78559 for more details.
great post :-P
i have Arch news on my RSS Reader, so im lazy to read in websites XD
If you're a bit of a noob like me, don't accidentally do a "pacman -Rc networkmanager avahi samba netfs" in stead of a "pacman -Rs networkmanager avahi samba netfs" Luckily I spotted my error fast enough to ctrl-C fast enough to be able to reinstall the uninstalled packages without problems..

Hi, all.
First post.
I'm a relative n00b to *nix. After re-installing Arch for the 10th time (that's not an exaggeration), I finally got an Internet connection and upgraded to the 2.6.39 kernel. Then, for whatever reason, I decided to upgrade glibc... which actually downgraded the package because I guess the mirrors don't keep up to date as much as they should. Now, nothing works anymore, and I can't even log in. Thus, I must re-install everything from scratch, which should be another 5 hours of fun.
I wish (and forgive my n00b-ness if this already exists) there would be an option for pacman to only downgrade during a -Syu if the user specifies it with a flag.
Arch is a rolling release - downgrading is the exception, not commonplace.
Closing this as it is stickied, not a support/feature request thread.

This recipe was given to me by one of my cousins a number of years ago, I have no idea where it orginated. It's been tweaked along the way. They are a very nice change from regular chocolate chip cookies.
The dough freezes very well, you can have warm cookies on demand~ just shape the dough into 1-inch balls, freeze on wax paper, or parchment lined baking sheets until hard, then pack in sealable plastic bags or containers. When ready to bake, follow recipe (preheat oven and bake until crisp around edges, and soft in the center.)
These are good cookies to use in ice cream sandwiches, too. I make them a little larger than described in the recipe.
Buttery Chocolate Cookies with White & Semi-Sweet Chips
Yields 2 dozen ~ 3-inch cookies
1/2 cup butter, room temperature
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/4 cup white granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 Tablespoon Kahlua, optional
1 cup all purpose flour
1/4 cup Dutch-processed cocoa powder (I use Droste)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips or chunks (I switch out, sometimes using half semi-sweet, and half white chunks or chips.)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees (F)
Place rack in center of oven. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silpat liners.
Sift or seive the cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, and salt together. (Set aside)
In the bowl of electric mixer (or with a hand mixer), cream the butter and sugars until light and fluffy (2-3 minutes). Add the egg and vanilla extract and beat until completely blended. Add the flour mixture and mix just until incorporated. Fold in the the chocolate chips.
Using a small ice cream scoop or two spoons, place about 1 1/2 tablespoons dough on the prepared baking sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart.
Bake for approximately 8 to 10 minutes or until the the cookies are still soft in the center but are firm around the edges.
Remove from oven and allow cookies cool on baking sheet for about 5 minutes, then transfer the cookies to wire rack to cool completely. They will be slightly crisp around the edges when just fresh, but will soften a bit upon standing.
Makes about 24 - 3 inch round cookies.

Volkswagen of America recalls some Tiguans
NEW YORK >> Volkswagen of America is recalling 151,389 Tiguan SUVs due to the possibility of stalling.
No accidents or injuries have been reported. The problem is with fuel pumps on some models from 2009 to 2014. Gas bubbles may form in the fuel system when winterized fuel is used in warmer months or warmer areas, which could lead to the car stalling.
Volkswagen is notifying all owners of the vehicles about the recall. Dealers are installing revised software in the cars to fix this issue.
