Subject: | application layer packet classifier in Fedora? |
From: | Marek Mahut |
Date: | Sun, 02 Sep 2007 22:05:32 +0200 |
Hello list, Today, when building my QoS script for my home-made router, I found that there's none packer classifier in Fedora. I'm looking for something like l7-filter[1] or ipp2p[2]. Any hint for something similar already in Fedora? Or someone who can help me to package and build l7-filter for Fedora? Thanks!

Is there a lie that lights your way...Baby
Is there a love that keeps you safe
Is there force to feel not taste
Can it tell tell you who you hate
If you been strung a long
Maybe a way too long
We're comin' to America
To violate
All of your hatred
All of your hardest hearts
Do it all for america
We're comin' to America
To violate
All your faith and
Christ parade
It's not so cool now
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsty.com/009-sound-system-violate-lyrics.html ]
Do it all for America
I'll give you this much
U got a style
I bet you're real tuff
You know your rights
But baby I'm sure
You live a lie
Waste a chance
To come out swinging
Yesterday I was walking alone on the street
Wonderin who wonderin who I'd meet
Saw Jesus he was walking right next me
Told me I was was everything I had to be
Is there song that you love to sing...
Are there things that make you happy
Is there way calm you down
Or are you thinkin' too much now

Using Intensity Modulated radiotherapy it is possible to treat the entire brain to standard dosages of whole-brain radiation, while keeping the radiation dose to the hippocampus low. However, a clear relationship between radiation dose and damage to the hippocampal stem cells has not been established yet.
This study is initiated to investigate the early and delayed neurotoxicity of PCI and to assess in a randomised design the benefits and risks of sparing the hippocampus in Small Cell Lung Cancer patients who receive PCI.
Condition | Intervention | Phase |
Small Cell Lung Cancer Lung Cancer |
Radiation: Radiation Prophylactic Cranial Irradiation Radiation: Radiation Hippocampal Avoidance PCI |

Further study details as provided by The Netherlands Cancer Institute:
Primary Outcome Measures:
- neurocognitive decline [ Time Frame: 4 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Each patient's total recall score recorded at 4 months will be compared to baseline and dichotomized into success (decline less or equal 5 points) or failure (decline more than 5 points). The difference between the groups, in terms of dichotomized decline will be tested by means of the Fisher's exact test. A p-value less than 0.049 will be considered significant. The primary analysis will be based on an intention-to-treat principle.
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- safety [ Time Frame: 2 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Brain metastases Time from randomization to the occurrence of brain metastases will be calculated and depicted in a cumulative incidence plot. Sensitivity analysis will be performed to assess the value of PCI vs HA-PCI treatment once considering patients dying without distant brain metastases to be censored and once using competing risk analysis considering distant metastases and death as separate events

2006 Walt Disney World Half Marathon Report: Pat Sylvain
Well, I'm back!
What a wonderful, magical run! We awoke @ 2:45 am (yes, a.m.!), dressed, as warmly as we could, had coffee and bagels and headed to our bus stop @ 3:30. Found 5 or 6 other crazy people waiting as well. Spoke to one gal who was doing "The Goofy", which is the half M on Saturday and the Full on Sunday. This particular gal was especially crazy, as she was doing the 5K Fun Run after the Half on Saturday! We arrived in the pitch black darkness to the Epcot Parking Lot, and we walked, zombie-like to the first staging area. It was surreal! There was a big screen and a live band playing 80's music... kinda brought me back to my younger days... but I digress! We tried our best to stay warm, and conserve energy. Obviously not an easy thing to do! By 0500, we had to take off any clothes we didn't want to throw away during the run, and check our bags. The line-ups were very, very long. We decided that my Dad would take my bag and check it with his own, as I wanted to make a last minute porta-pottie stop. The bag-check thing was a bad idea, because apparently you cannot check in anyone else's bag but your own - although it did not say that anywhere on the documents we received from Disney. Is that a usual practice? (We've never checked bags before, as usually my mom is with us, and she holds all our stuff) Anyhow, after making my toilet-paperless pit stop, I did not see my Dad anywhere, so thought Id wait for him in our Corral. We were assigned Corral C, which I thought was great! I began the long walk in the dark to our corral. The walk took about 15 20 minutes! I got to the corral, and waited anxiously for my Dad. Man, it was cold! You could see your breath! At 0600 the Fireworks went off and away we were! The walk to the start line seemed to take forever! And even at the 1 mile point, we were barely into any kind of rhythm. I tried to convince my Dad that this was good- we were cold and stiff, and the slower the warm-up, the better off we would be! Any finishing time for him would be a PB, as this was his first half. My goal was to run easy, and finish with my dad. That however, was not to be. At mile 3 he needed to pee, and because there were 3 or 4 people lined up at the 2 porta-johns, he decided to go in the bushes, and I waited my turn (2 minute process). When I finished, he was nowhere to be seen it was still very, very dark! So, I sadly decided to go out on my own, hoping that I would find him somehow We had great crowd support at several spots along the run, and I cheered, applauded and thanked all of the high school marching bands, the cheerleading teams, Gospel singing groups, Disney Characters and especially the Disney Workers and Volunteers, who enthusiastically gave of their time to ensure we had a great race. It occurred to me that they had to get out of their warm beds at an ungodly hour to be there as well! When the sun came out, I found that we were running through the Magic Kingdom, and magical it was! Super! It wasnt long, or didnt seem to take very long at all, that we were already at mile 10! I felt great! Of course, I was running this at a fairly easy pace, not pushing myself, and thoroughly enjoying the atmosphere! There were water stations at every mile, with Dasani water and PowerAde. All volunteers wore gloves, and there were lots of volunteers! I walked through every other water station. Otherwise I just kept plodding along at a nice steady pace of ~ 6.36/km. I was proud of the fact that I did not walk any hill (er, I mean overpass)! This is a first for me I hope it bodes well for the ATB! Before I knew it, we were rounding the bend into Epcot to the finish line! The crowds were crazy! It was great! Chip removed, medal placed around my neck, into the food tent, which had loads of oranges, bananas, individually wrapped banana or blueberry cakes, cliff builder bars, PowerAde and water. I would rate this half as 9 out of 10. The only issue is the long wait at the beginning. Im sure if it was warmer, my rating would be higher. Im seriously thinking about doing this half again next year! (But I will carry a camera next time!) I ran in my Running Mania shirt which by the way, I also wore the day before to the Expo and found several people staring interestingly at my chest! (Im not well-endowed, so have not had that experience before!) |

Hasina's son roots for connectivity with India
Thursday December 09, 2010 04:50:18 PM, IANS
Dhaka: Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's technocrat son Sajeeb Wazed Joy has strongly supported the government's plans to "connect" with India and other neighbours and join the trans-Asian rail and road network. "It is connectivity. Transit is an aspect. India will get transit and we will get a fee. We must get a fee. Why not," Joy was quoted as saying by The Daily Star Thursday. "Without connectivity and trade in this age of globalisation, the pace of growth and investment will not increase," he said at a luncheon meeting organised by the American Chamber of Commerce in Bangladesh (AmCham). Bangladesh sits at the centre of three main drivers of growth in Asia -- India, China and Southeast Asia. But it has failed to take advantage of geography by developing connectivity with the three economies, he said. One reason he cited was opposition from the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) of Khaleda Zia, a former prime minister. Criticising the BNP, Joy said the Awami League, led by his mother, "has moved to establish Bangladesh's connectivity with the region, which will facilitate expansion of trade, transport and investment and boost the country's nearly $100 billion economy. "We'll gain financially. We will get fees for transit of all goods through our land." Aside from connectivity with India, the country will have road links with Myanmar, Thailand and Malaysia through the Asian Highway allowing easy access of Bangladeshi goods to those countries, he said. In addition, as China will be linked to the Asian Highway, bilateral trade between Bangladesh and China will shoot up. "Ultimately, it'll benefit us," said Sajeeb, an IT professional with graduation from Texas University who is now with the Awami League. Bangladesh and India agreed on connectivity with Nepal and Bhutan during a visit by Hasina to New Delhi in January, when India pledged a $one billion line of credit. Moves are afoot since then to allow India limited access to its isolated northeastern region, beginning with trans-shipment through Bangladeshi territory of heavy equipment required to set up a power plant in Tripura.

'Soul Train' Got Me Through My Saturday Morning Ironing Chores And Taught Me How To Dance. I Am Very Saddened By The News That Don Cornelius,Host And Creator Of 'Soul Train' Has Died After An Apparent Suicide.
Don Cornelius saved me from dancing like Elaine on Seinfeld. Every Saturday morning as a young teenager my job was to iron. Hated It! I'd carry a pile of shirts up from the basement washroom into the den where I'd set up the ironing board in front of the TV. American Bandstand was first and then Soul Train came on right after. My father and brothers wore giant sized shirts. I'd sprint up and down the ironing board to get through ironing a sleeve. Took me hours. Ruined every Saturday while my friends were at the mall, except for the fact that I learned some awesome dance moves from Soul Train that have made me the kickass dancer I am today.
Don Cornelius signed off each show with the words "Love, peace and soul."
Today we send our love in his memory and wish his soul peace.

Who knew a dozen roses could cost so much?
According to Houston man Leroy Greer, the price is painful public scrutiny. But the Today Show's Meredith Vieira isn't buying it.
"You cheated on your wife," Vieira said in an interview Monday with Greer regarding his lawsuit against 1-800-Flowers – which he accuses of sending the bill to his wife after he ordered a dozen roses for his girlfriend. "Didn't you bring sort of bring this on yourself?"
Greer's $1 million lawsuit – filed this week in a Texas federal court – stems from his claim that once the secret flower purchase was revealed to his spouse, she increased the amount she is seeking in their divorce settlement.
The "mistake is going to cost Mr. Greer at lease half a million dollars," his attorney, Kennitra Foote, said on Today. After learning of the affair, Greer's wife asked for a $300,000 divorce settlement in addition to child support, she said.
"A lot of people out there are just saying you got what you deserved," Vieira contended. "They just don't buy the lawsuit."
The TV host wouldn't let up, reminding Greer several times of his infidelities: "You got caught cheating, and you should just swallow it like a man."
In his own defense, Greer said he wasn't cheating at the time. "When the roses were sent we weren't even together," he said. And, according to the company's privacy policy, 1-800-Flowers breached the contract he had with them to keep private the information about his purchase.
In its defense, 1-800-Flowers issued the following statement: "We take all matters relating to our customers seriously; however, we are not responsible for an individual's personal conduct."

The first release of Java in 1996 generated an incredible amount of excitement, not just in the computer press, but in mainstream media such as The New York Times, The Washington Post, and Business Week. Java has the distinction of being the first and only programming language that had a ten-minute story on National Public Radio. A $100,000,000 venture capital fund was set up solely for products produced by use of a specific computer language. It is rather amusing to revisit those heady times, and we give you a brief history of Java in this chapter.

I'm thinking about launching up my own Takistan: Revolution server; the only question I have. I had a friend that ran a Takistan server before and he ran it on operation arrowhead.
So it did not have the Items/Cars/Guns, from Combined Operations. How would I launch a server with all the Items combined, including the items from Arma2, OA and Combined operations.
Is this a server side complex from where I buy the server if they launch it on either OA or CO?
Or is this something that is more involved with scripting?
Thanks in advance; Steez

Stoney Edwards
Stoney Edwards
Stoney Edwards never made it to the big time, yet he and his soulful honky tonk sound had a devoted following, and he was one of the few African-American performers to try his hand in the genre. He was born Frenchy Edwards in rural Oklahoma, one of seven children. Even as a boy, Edwards dreamed of playing on the Grand Ole Opry like his hero, Bob Wills. By the time he was 13, he had mastered several instruments and frequently jammed with his uncles. After leaving home as a teen, he married in 1954 and moved to San Francisco to settle down for the next 15 years. When not working he played music. After breaking his back in a job-related mishap, Edwards was ordered to avoid heavy work by his doctors. Without an income, he seriously thought of leaving his family so they could receive welfare, but just as he was leaving his daughter came forth with the gift of wind-up toy. Deeply moved, Edwards was inspired to write his first song, "A Two Dollar Toy," and began focusing his energy on a music career.

With Arenas down, Wizards win.
by Dennis Tarwood
A sloppy slush-filled night outside in Milwaukee Wednesday set the stage for a shabby Bucks (12-15) performance in a 109-97 Washington Wizards (10-17) victory just before the Christmas break for both teams. The snowstorm kept Milwaukee's crowd home, leaving the true attendance closer to theoretical than the listed 13,113.
Scott Skiles' young squad jacked up an unconscionable 25 three-pointers, making a mere five. The game only held close due to a plethora of offensive boards for the Bucks created by their flurry of long-range duds.
Before the game, Skiles was reluctant to discuss the effects of the holidays on his team, joking, "I get asked that, but what can I possibly do?… I get a lot of fans (asking), 'Don't you tell them to do this? Don't you tell them to do that?' It doesn't mean it does any good."
Having said that, Skiles emphasized the opportunity left under the Christmas tree for any team that cared to claim it. "This is the time of year that you can steal games…. If you can keep your focus, this is the time you can do some damage."
Indeed, the Wizards found the adage to be spot on. A 37-27 first quarter enhanced by the Bucks missing all five threes attempted and allowing Gilbert Arenas to log 13 points, 7 assists, and 3 rebounds made it clear which team was Cindy Lou Who and which one was getting its Grinch on to steal the game.
Brandon Jennings became a non-factor, playing only 16 minutes due to foul trouble. Jennings found himself bolted to the bench immediately after his early first foul on Randy Foye, only escaping long enough to gather his second foul on Arenas. To repeat: Brandon Jennings could not keep Randy Foye in front of him.
With Charlie Bell and Jodie Meeks left to distribute the ball, the Bucks fell on old ways learned during Andrew Bogut's numerous absences and settled for three balls early in the shot clock with little success.
When Jennings wasted a mere 18 seconds of the second half to rack up his fourth foul, the game seemed settled. But Milwaukee clawed back by missing a ridiculous amount of shots and then making their second shots off offensive rebounds.
The Wizards pulled away in the 4th, though, after Arenas departed with a thigh/hip bruise on his left side after careening into an immovable Australian on a charge call. Earl Boykins filled the Arenas-sized void surprisingly well and closed out with clever drives to the basket and a willingness to swing the ball to the weak side, neither of which the Bucks could solve.
Flip Saunders spoke about the "shot selection" of the Bucks after the game in cloaked terms as if he would prefer to sneak out of town with the win before anyone discovered the bullet hole in the Bucks' collective foot, crediting his team with strong shooting but better defense, proven out by a 53-36 percent shooting advantage on the night.
As Flip noted, "We sent three guys back off every shot… I did not want them to get open floor opportunities." This led to only one offensive board for the Wizards but absolute frustration for the Bucks all night.
Arenas didn't quite know what happened on his final play of the game: "I just know I ran into knees. I just kept thinking, 'How come I keep getting hit where the pads aren't?'" Arenas gauged his pain and fatigue levels and chose to sit out the rest of the night. "We hit shots; we got free throws; we got stops. There was no point in my going back in."
Andrew Bogut was less sanguine: "We're blowing defensive assignments… what have we played, 27 games, 100 practices… it's frustrating."
By the way, Scott Skiles' teams are 18-22 during the December holidays (12/21-1/1) during his coaching career, setting a .450 pace compared to his career .511 mark. He probably has a few things to say to his team about that in practice No. 101 on Christmas Eve.
* Flip Saunders after the game: "I think guys are playing their roles better." In totally unrelated news, DeShawn Stevenson was a DNP-CD.
* The Bucks' entertainment team did a Festivus bit during a time out. Honestly. In 2009.
* The Wiz run through their intros again secretly when the home team is announced. Well, Andray Blatche does. Repeatedly. He runs out to greet his teammates and then scoots back to the bench to do it for the next starter.
* If you are looking for a last-minute gift for Brendan Haywood, consider a tent. He likes camping out a lot, as two defensive three-second violations might suggest.
* If you want to give Scott Skiles a gift, don't mention where he was two years ago Thursday.

Rollback: A Corporate Feeding Frenzy During Bush's Honeymoon
A Multinational Monitor investigative packet looks at the first hundred days for the George W. Bush administration, and finds that the cabinet has "aggressively carried forward the corporate agenda." The stories within the packet focus on the negative consequences to the environment, workers, public health, consumers, civil rights, mining, etc., resulting from the suspension or rescinding of important regulations. One of the articles sheds light on the new bankruptcy rules that favor the automobile industry and finance companies, while diminishing the chance of financially devastated low-income families to resume "lives as productive members of their community." A separate piece reveals the background and the corporate connections of vice-[president Dick Cheney. The packet includes profiles of the members of Bush's "corporate cabinet," and dissects some possible motives that might have inspired their actions in the first 100 days. The profiled officials are: Secretary of Labor Elaine Chao, EPA Administrator Christine Whitman, Veteran Affairs Secretary Anthony J. Principi, Secretary of the Interior Gale Norton, Secretary of Commerce Donald Evans, Treasury Secretary Paul H. O'Neill, Attorney General John Ashcroft, Secretary of Energy Spencer Abraham, Secretary of Education Rod Paige, Director Office of Management and Budget Mitch Daniels, U.S. Trade Representative Robert Zoellick, Secretary of Transportation Norm Minetta, Secretary of Health and Human Services Tommy Thompson, Secretary of Agriculture Ann Veneman, National Security Adviser Condoleeza Rice, Secretary of State Colin Powell.

New Delhi: Twenty five years may have elapsed ever since India scripted history by winning the World Cup, but legendary batsman Sunil Gavaskar said every moment of the triumph was still fresh in his mind.
Every bit of those momentous victories are still very fresh in my mind. Its all there, the field placing, the fall of wickets, everything. I can still see them through my minds eye, Gavaskar, a key memeber of Kapils Devils, said here.
That particular moment when Kapil hoisted the World Cup still brings tears to my eyes, he said.
Walking down memory lane, Gavaskar still remembered the particular moment when the final delivery of Mohinder Amarnath dismissed West Indies last man Michael Holding in the final at the Lords.
It was Jimmy who was bowling to holding. The moment his delivery hit Holding on the pads, my first reaction was to save the leg bye but by the time I collected the ball, I realised that he was given out and there was a pandemonium. I ran round the crowd towards the dressing room, he said.
I still have the ball with me. I hope to take the autographs from all the teammates (of that team) as some of the signatures have faded by now, he added.
Of all the finest moments of the World Cup, one that Gavaskar will never forget was the unbeaten 175-run knock by skipper Kapil Dev.
It was the best innings I have ever witnessed in my entire life, he said.
Lauding Kapils captaincy, Gavaskar said it was the lanky fast bowlers composure that made the difference.
During the matches, Kapil was getting advice from all quarters. It was difficult for him but all credit goes to him, he said.
Gavaskar felt the reason behind 1983s stupendous feat was the contribution of the all-rounders. We had some very good all-rounders.

Don't miss Canibus – Rip The Jacker lp, Stoupe produced that too.
As much as i love Skinny Puppy, Dissecting Table, Whitehouse etc. stuff, JMT is the most played artist in my collection the past 10 years. Though Vinnie's voice sounds shot on the last few records, like gargling gravel.

Sifting through the wreckage of a downed airplane may not be the most appealing job for some, but for Robert Benzon '71 it's his way of serving his country and the industry he loves so much—flight. As an investigator-in-charge for the National Transportation and Safety Board (NTSB) Benzon has spent the last twenty-five years investigating airplane crashes around the world. "It can be an emotional job at times, knowing that there are usually passenger and crew fatalities, but it's very rewarding when the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the airlines themselves implement our safety recommendations. The number of fatalities in commercial aircraft accidents is on a good downward trend since I joined the NTSB many years ago. We're trying to put ourselves out of business," joked Benzon.
You could say that flying and a fascination with airplanes is in Benzon's blood. His father was an Air Force navigator, stationed at Pope Air Force Base in Fayetteville, North Carolina when it was time for Benzon to attend college. "East Carolina was actually the only school I applied to and fortunately, I was accepted. It was far enough away from home, yet close enough that I could visit about once a month. I chose ECU because it was convenient, practical, affordable, and I knew it had a good history program. I enjoyed being part of the Air Force ROTC program at ECU and enjoyed intramural baseball and swimming."
Upon graduation in 1971, Benzon became a commissioned Air Force officer and was immediately sent to flight school in Columbus, Mississippi, where he would spend the next year learning to fly military aircraft. He then flew Douglas C-47 Skytrains during the Vietnam War while stationed at Da Nang Air Base. During two further stateside assignments, one in California and another in New York State, Benzon flew the Boeing KC-135 Stratotanker, an aerial refueling tanker aircraft. While logging plenty of flight time Benzon also learned the ins and outs of airplane safety during his final two years of active duty as a flying safety officer. His military service earned him numerous Air Medals, Air Force Commendation Medals, the Air Force Outstanding Unit Award with Valor designation, and the Republic of Vietnam Cross of Gallantry with Palm. His Air Force experience also, of course, prepared him for a career with the NTSB.
The National Transportation Safety Board is an independent Federal agency charged by Congress with investigating every civil aviation accident in the United States and significant accidents in the other modes of transportation—railroad, highway, marine and pipeline—and issuing safety recommendations aimed at preventing future accidents. The Safety Board determines the probable cause of:
•all U.S. civil aviation accidents and certain public-use aircraft accidents;
•selected highway accidents;
•railroad accidents involving passenger trains or any train accident that results in at least one fatality or major property damage;
•major marine accidents and any marine accident involving a public and a nonpublic vessel;
•pipeline accidents involving a fatality or substantial property damage;
•releases of hazardous materials in all forms of transportation; and
•selected transportation accidents that involve problems of a recurring nature.*
In 1984 Benzon joined the NTSB's Chicago Field Office. During this "apprenticeship" he investigated sixty-four fatal general aviation accidents and several air carrier incidents. In 1987 Benzon transferred to NTSB Headquarters in Washington, D.C., where he currently serves as investigator-in-charge, has investigated thirty-three major aircraft accidents within the United States, and has been the on-scene U.S. accredited representative on numerous major overseas accident investigations. "When you fly an airplane you always think you're doing it the safest way, but when you become a safety-oriented person professionally, it turns out there are a lot of things that could be done better. It's very satisfying work.
"As investigator-in-charge I'm a bit of a 'generalist.' We have what we call a 'Go Team' and I'm in charge of around twelve investigators on each assignment, depending on the crash. These investigators specialize in a variety of areas that I oversee, including operations [the history of the accident flight and crewmembers' duties for as many days prior to the crash as appears relevant]; structures [documentation of the airframe wreckage and the accident scene, including calculation of impact angles to help determine the plane's pre-impact course, altitude, and angle of impact.]; powerplants [examination of engines and engine accessories]; systems [study of components of the plane's hydraulic, electrical, pneumatic and associated systems, together with instruments and elements of the flight control system]; air traffic control [reconstruction of the air traffic services given the plane, including acquisition of ATC radar data and transcripts of controller-pilot radio transmissions]; weather [gathering of all pertinent weather data from the National Weather Service, and other sources, for a broad area around the accident scene]; human performance [study of crew performance and all before-the-accident factors that might be involved in human error, including fatigue, medication, alcohol, drugs, medical histories, training, workload, equipment design and work environment]; and survival factors [documentation of impact forces and injuries, evacuation, community emergency planning and all crash-fire-rescue efforts]. *
"I'm basically the leader of the investigative team. On scene, someone has to run the meetings, deal with the many other organizations interested in the investigation outcome, and in general, guide the investigative process. Even though every plane crash is different, our basic process is pretty cut and dried. Our 'Go Teams' vary regarding individuals, but we are always ready to do the job. Whenever we get the call that there is a crash we all assemble in Washington within two hours of being notified. Usually we're together quicker than that and we gather all of our gear to head out to the crash site [ironically] on a small business jet provide by the FAA.
"The first step in the investigation is to make sure the wreckage is secured and there aren't any hazardous materials that could hurt someone. We introduce ourselves to the local authorities and typically do a quick press conference to give a brief outline of what we'll be doing. Then we hold an organizational meeting to get everyone going in the right direction to start the investigation. Documentation of the wreckage, depending on the type of crash—a water crash, or if the plane has broken into several pieces—can take anywhere from two weeks to several months. It's all a fact-gathering exercise; we purposely avoid analyzing anything too early. If we start analyzing without a good basis of fact, then we can analyze incorrectly and we certainly don't want to do that.
"Once the crash has been properly documented we come back to Washington and assemble reports based on the factual material we gathered. About six months into the process we hold a public hearing where witnesses are interviewed. These witnesses would perhaps be FAA policy makers, people that trained the flight crew, and the people that designed the airplane, are put under oath and asked many, many questions to build up a case.
"Finally, we analyze all of the facts to determine what happened. Usually if you eliminate everything that went right, whatever is left is probably what caused the accident. The end product is a published report and public docket…that is filed for future use by attorneys, perhaps, or the aviation industry itself to try to prevent the next accident. That's pretty much what we're here for—to prevent the next accident," said Benzon.
Benzon said that if he had to pick three or four investigations that meant the most to him, they would be:
Continental Airlines Flight 1713
Denver, CO
November 15, 1987
Benzon's first major airline investigation.
Pan American Airlines Flight 103
Lockerbie, Scotland
December 22, 1988
Benzon's first overseas assignment.
American Airlines Flight 587
New York City
November 12, 2001
The second worst airline accident in US history.
American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175
The aircraft lost in New York City on September 11, 2001.
Benzon led the team of NTSB investigators at the World Trade Center following the September 11 terrorist attacks. "Working on the 9-11 terrorist attacks in New York was a traumatic experience. Two airliners were destroyed within minutes of each other. The FBI took the lead on the investigation because the events were not accidents, but true crimes. Our job was to identify airplane parts and to try to locate the flight data recorders. What we did was to station ourselves with binoculars and small telescopes in some of the buildings that surround Ground Zero and we then looked for any bright orange material that was uncovered as firefighters went through the wreckage looking for their own people. Unfortunately, we found absolutely no trace of the recorders.
"Most people don't know that flight data recorders are actually bright orange, not black, as suggested by the term 'black box.' They are ¼ inch steel, fireproof boxes that have reflective tape around the outside and a locator beacon for underwater retrieval. The fires from the 9-11 crashes at the World Trade Center were too intense for those recorders to withstand. It was pretty emotional for me—I mean, you knew there were more than 2,500 people in there somewhere and it wasn't a very pleasant experience," said Benzon.
Currently, Benzon is working on a much different investigation—the "Miracle on the Hudson" River landing that occurred on January 15. "This investigation is a breath of fresh air for us, if you can believe it. The survivor's stories are so uplifting and the captain did such a fine job putting the aircraft down in the water, that it is almost a joyous investigation. The good news is we think there might be ways to mitigate the bird problem in the future," remarked Benzon, "every accident gives us more information on how to prevent similar events in the future."
Ultimately, the NTSB and FAA want air travel to be worry and accident-free. "I don't know the exact number, but statistics tell us that you can fly once a day for something like 11,000 years before you would die in a commercial airline accident. The odds are with us [in flight travel] and it's much more dangerous driving to work, frankly, than flying in an airplane." With people like Benzon identifying safer flight procedures, perhaps he really will work himself out of a job.

Today is December 13, 2013 -
What Parents are Saying
Kadimaniks and USYers are not the only ones who have great things to say. Here are some quotes from parents about different programs.
"We just wanted to let you know that we appreciate the amazing job you, and the entire staff, did taking care of the campers during Hurricane Irene. It must have been difficult, to say the least, keeping hundreds of campers safe, calm, and occupied while worrying abuot your own family and friends further south. As proof of your tremendous efforts, I need to mention this: both Jackson and Raya are already planning and looking forward to Encampment next year!"
- Caroline and Bruce Kazdan – September 2, 2011 – Jackson 11th Grade, Raya 7th Grade
"It was Noah's last encampment and it was so bittersweet for him. He talked about and continues to talk about how amazing Encampment was. He has made long lasting friendships through USY and he has had a lot of personal growth through each year's event."
- Diane Danker – September 14, 2011 – Noah 12th Grade
"USY made a tremendous difference in the lives of my children. Jonathan and Andrew made friends that they will have forever and have developed a deep love and understanding for their religion that was promoted and nurtured by the USY organization. Thank you again."
- Rose Koven – September 14, 2011 – Jonathan is in college, Andrew 12th Grade
"I wanted to express my profound admiration for the extraordinary effort you guys put in to allow WJC to host our first-ever Kinnus. The excitement, buzz and ruach in the room on Friday night, Shabbat morning and all throughout the weekend were heartwarming, fun and infectious. It was so wonderful to have so many young and fresh faces singing and dancing and clapping with such immense happiness within our very own building!
I was particularly touched to have been notified that there would be a Shabbat Mincha service yesterday afternoon run by the USYers which would allow me to say Kaddish yet again, I came, I prayed and I was so overwhelmed by the enthusiasm and sheer joy of the Judaism I felt in the room that I left in tears – good ones for a change.
You guys are the reason this synagogue will thrive, and I am so very proud and honored to serve with you on the administrative board.
Of course there are many other people to thank, including Debra Daniels, Paul Chaskes, our clergy, our custodial staff, and all who hosted the students and staff, etc, and I am sure others who I know helped out all weekend, but without you guys spearheading this, it could not have happened.
Yasher Koach for an unbelievable job!"

Wait I'm confused as to how Chicago is this low in the list…. Am I missing something because the lineups I've seen blow every other city on this list so far out of the water
I'm with you Levi, I think the author may be bias. Why else would he begin his comment with the statement: "Typically locked in the icy grasp of a Great Lakes winter…." Truth is, Chicago does have a great four season climate and a real winter but the city is not typically locked in winter. The great advantage for Chicago's outdoor concert season is the fact that along with the four season climate comes a typically moderate Chicago summer. This, for sure, trumps some of the cities on the list which typically have an oppressively hot or oppressively hot/humid summer concert season. In addition, I'll take Chicago as a destination over most all the cities on the list music festival or no.
Let me just go ahead and fill in the ones you forgot for LA: Nocturnal Wonderland, Escape from Wonderland, Beyond Wonderland, Hard Haunted Mansion, Hard: Day of the Dead, Rock the Bells, and nearby festivals EDC LV (only the biggest music festival in the country), Coachella and Stagecoach. LA is number one hands down.
They used a picture of Escapade Music Festival to show Toronto's festivals? Escapade is in Ottawa, a 5 hour drive away. Get your facts straight.
If you FIBS would have read the beginning of the list it said the order does not mean a thing. The top ten were treated equal..The list did not include Milwaukee.. Summerfest is the top Music Fest in the USA hands down. Milwaukee is called the City of Festivals. Not even a mention.. Hey Braj: Summerfest in Milwaukee Is The Worlds Largest Music Festival but you said EDC LV "is the biggest music festival in the country" Braj .. You should get your facts straight..
How is New Orleans not on here?
Buku Music and Art Project
Congo Square New Worlds Rhythm Festival
Freret Street Festival
Greek Festival
LA Cajun Zydeco Festival
Essence Music Festival
Cutting Edge Music Festival
Crescent City Blues and Barbeque Festival
Words and Music Festival
VooDoo Music ExperiencePlus hundreds of spots around the city playing live music every night!
I know NOLA has a festival or parade almost every weekend but don't hold it against us. Your list is invalid!
Where is Milwaukee, Wi? Nicknamed the City of Festivals…SUMMERFEST the largest outdoor music festival in the world. You haven't been to a music festival until you've been to Summerfest. These cities have nothing on Milwaukee

2003, by rights, should have been a "change election" for Northumberland County Republicans. For the first time since 1975, the GOP won control of the county, thanks to the financial debacle left behind by the last elected Democratic commissioners, Allen Cwalina and Charles Lewis Jr. On election night, Republicans thought the pendulum had finally swung in their direction after six commissioner elections that went to the Democrats.
The Democratic nominees in 2003 - Frank Sawicki and Vinny Clausi - had nothing whatsoever to do with the late discredited Cwalina-Lewis regime, but alas, voters, fearing another Democratic administration might bring more of the same, opted for the Republican alternatives of Kurt Masser and incumbent Commissioner Sam Deitrick, with Sawicki elected as minority commissioner and Clausi out.
Deitrick and Masser thought they had done a great job from 2004 to 2007 in putting the county back on the road to fiscal solvency. But it turned out voters were not all that impressed with the level of change.
The 2007 general election had the same cast of characters, Masser and Deitrick, seeking re-election, were running as a team, but just like in 2003, Sawicki and Clausi were not.
The difference in the 2007 campaign was that Clausi was more determined, and perhaps more confident. He struck a nerve with his charge that county voters were being overtaxed, and his challenge to the Republican commissioners to "tell the truth" resonated with the electorate.
At some point between 2003 and 2007, voters apparently remembered that Deitrick served as a minority commissioner during the last 3 1/2 years of the Cwalina-Lewis era. Although no one blamed Deitrick for the bad financial decisions, critics thought he should have been more vocal in opposing these decisions.
On election night, Clausi finished first; Masser second, just 80 votes behind Clausi; Sawicki, third, and Deitrick, last and out. The election was by no means a blowout (Deitrick had only about 800 fewer votes than Clausi), but it was decisive.
Deitrick was out of office until he was elected jury commissioner two years later. Masser resigned from the board of commissioners in late 2010 following his election as a state representative.
On election night 2007, the separate Sawicki and Clausi campaigns ended in separate victory celebrations - Clausi's at the Springfield Banquet Hall and Sawicki's at the Pine Burr Inn. They were both nominees of the Democratic Party - twice - but they never really connected as a team, as became painfully obvious during the tumultuous next four years.

Ever dream of driving that special vintage car that you've seen at a national car show? Lane Motor Museum can make your dream come true on September 21 or October 5 at our Fourth Annual Rally for The Lane!
Click here to jump to the list of cars
Rally for The Lane is a one-day vintage car fan extravaganza. The museum has selected 46 cars from its collection that participants will be able to purchase the right to drive on the rally. Registration will end when approximately 25 have been registered for that day's Rally event.
In addition to being a fun event that our past participants have raved about- this Rally is a fundraiser for Lane Motor Museum that raised over $25,000 last year. The money raised helps to defray the costs of owning, housing, restoring and maintaining the over 330 cars in our collection!
The day will begin at the museum with some car familiarization time and a personal driving lesson for your chosen vehicle. The rally will kick-off at 9:00 a.m. and we'll all head towards Tullahoma, TN. Past rallys have included over 100 miles of driving over the course of the day.
This is a gimmick rally, which means there are questions to answer along the way but it is not a timed event. If you prefer to just enjoy the drive, the questions are optional! The directions will be very clear as we do not want participants getting lost.
When we arrive in Tullahoma, we will all gather at the historic location of the Beechcraft Heritage Museum where we'll enjoy a visit to the museum as well as a lunch in one of their aircraft hangars.
Click here to jump to the list of cars
The Beechcraft Heritage Museum is a distinctly original one-of-a-kind, "living and working" aviation museum that traces the lineage of the Beechcraft family of airplanes. The Museum began life as the Staggerwing Museum Foundation, incorporated in October of 1973, under the auspices of the Staggerwing Club.
Following lunch we will begin the second half of the Rally as we work our way back to the museum where we'll enjoy a post-rally reception, a private tour of the museum's basement collection and a trophy presentation!
Finally, for those who would like to continue the fun we have planned an optional group dinner that will be held in the museum's exhibit area- surrounded by our cars! Our friends at Joey's House of Pizza, an amazing family-owned restaurant here in Nashville, will be serving up an authentic italian meal! Cost of dinner is $20/person.
Saturday, September 21, 2013 or Saturday, October 5, 2013
7:00am - 6:30pm (Central Time)
(Times are approximate and subject to change as we finalize Rally routes.)
7:00 am | Arrive at Lane Motor Museum for Registration and a light pre-Rally breakfast. Everyone will have a chance to look around the museum and the drivers (max of 2 per vehicle) will receive a personal driving lesson in their car. |
8:45 am | Pre-rally meeting and group photo. |
9:00 am | First car out – (cars will leave 1 minute apart; slower cars will leave first). |
1:00 pm | Arrive at the Beechcraft Heritage Museum for a visit to the museum and a catered lunch served in one of the hangars! |
2:30 pm | Rally resumes – (cars will leave in 1-minute intervals). |
5:30 pm | Return to the museum. Enjoy a post-Rally reception and private access to the museum's basement collection. |
6:30 pm | Trophy presentation! |
7:00 pm | (OPTIONAL- Requires separate RSVP/payment) Time to relax with a group dinner that will take place in the museum exhibit area and will be an italian buffet catered by our friends at Joey's House of Pizza restaurant. Cost of dinner will be $20/person. |

Moment of Zen: Sleeping In
It has been a long week, nothing bad happened. In fact, it has been a pretty good week. Technically, we were out of school on Monday for Presidents' Day, but with so much going on this week, it felt much longer than four days. Last night, I spent the evening with some friends sitting out on the patio talking (and drinking), so I didn't get my post scheduled last night. So, I decided that this morning I was going to sleep in...

Checking in With Mac Gaming Legend Glenda Adams
Posted by Elizabeth Howard
GameAgent: You've been at the Mac programming game longer than almost anyone else out there and are now deep into iOS. Can you give us a few thoughts about Apple's evolution in gaming?
Glenda Adams: It's been quite an interesting ride! I started programming Mac games back in 1988, and went through so many years when "game" was a four letter word for Apple. To be honest, there were always people at Apple passionate about Mac games, but at a high level it just never was a priority. After about 20 years of seeing Apple randomly do good & bad things for game developers, it really did surprise me to see what happened with iOS. I don't think Apple anticipated it at all, but now that gaming is such a major part of the iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad success, it's great to see them embrace it. Apple's TV ads with games in them? I'd have never believed it back in 1988, 1998, or even 2008!
And now that Apple has announced the Mac App Store, I think we'll see a real makeover of Mac gaming. It opens things up to so much better distribution, getting a lot of those Mac users who would never look at the games section of an Apple retail store to think about picking up something fun to play on their new MacBook or iMac.
GA: What are some of the gaming trends in 2010 that you really liked?
Glenda: I like the trend of smaller scale, snack size gaming. The type of games on the iPhone, or downloadable games on the Mac & PC or console. While a big blockbuster like Civilization 5, or Call of Duty is great (I'm just now finally finishing up playing Red Dead Redemption on the 360), I like playing smaller games that don't have quite the learning curve or time commitment. I think that trend is a good one for the game industry, and good for gamers.
Personally, as I've switched to iOS development, the trend to smaller games has been wonderful. After taking several years off from game programming, mostly because the projects just got so large, it's been great to be able to go back to small scale games. I can develop a complete iOS kids game app by myself, in a month, and get it out to gamers to see what they think. Actually getting back into coding has been quite fun, and I thought I'd permanently burned out on programming 6-7 years ago.
GA: What's one game you ported to the Mac that you'll always remember fondly… and why?
Glenda: Ooh, so many games over the years, that's a hard question. I think probably Tomb Raider 2. That was the first Tomb Raider game [Aspyr] ported to the Mac. It was a game that when I first saw it, I thought "this has GOT to come to the Mac". The character animation was so amazing, it had one of the first kick butt female lead characters, and it was just a perfectly executed game. At the time, no one thought it would ever come to the Mac. To actually get to work on it was like winning the lottery. TR2 also had one of my favorite easter eggs I added to game. Early in the story, a cut-scene showed Lara opening a laptop to get a message about her quest. I added an Apple logo to the back of the laptop, turning it into a PowerBook (after running quite a gauntlet with Apple legal to get an OK, or at least a "we most likely won't sue you").
GA: Do you still think of yourself as a gamer, even after all the time you've spent creating?
Glenda: Yes, although I don't spend as much time gaming as I did when I first started in the business. Other things in life have taken priority, but I'm still anxiously awaiting some new releases, and know I'll spend a few late nights playing stuff like Civ 5 or Diablo 3 in the future.
