WO Damian Clayton MBE
Warrant Officer Damian Clayton MBE RAF is the Armed Forces representative on the Community Board.
Damian has played a key role in the recognition and overall development of Rugby League in the RAF and Armed Forces.
Together with the fellow member of the RFL Roll of Honor – Martin Coyd, he started a personal campaign to challenge the antiquated view held by some of the military hierarchy, that Rugby League had no place in our Armed Forces.
The rest is history as they say, with the sport gaining official recognition in the RAF on 1 Jan 1996. He was bestowed the honour of membership of the Most Excellence Order of the British Empire in the 2002 Queens Birthday Honours list for services to Rugby League in the Armed Forces.
As a player Damian captained the RAF Rugby League side from 1994 – 2006. Unfortunately he succumbed to a ruptured ACL during an Inter Service fixture against the Royal Navy which ended his playing career.
Professionally, Damian currently holds the appointment of Station Warrant Officer at the RAF College, RAF Cranwell, which also happens to be the home of RAF Rugby League.
He has served both home and abroad, completing tours in Germany, Holland, Iraq, Bosnia and the Falkland Islands.
Charlie Bray
Charlie has represented the Youth and Junior Leagues on the Community Board since 2008 and has been involved in the sport as player since childhood.

He served for over 20 years as a Fixture Secretary and then Discipline Secretary and now holds the General Secretaries role.
He holds the UKCC Level 2 Coaching qualification and has also served as Head Coach for Leeds Service Area as well as Performance Analyst for the RFL amongst other coaching roles.

He has been involved with schools for over 20 years. During this time he has coached School sides at all Secondary School year groups and assisted in the coaching of town team sides at U13, U15 and U16s ages.
In his role with the ESRL Ian has toured with the U16s International sides to France, undertaking several roles.
Before his career in Education Ian was in the banking industry and the food industry, but has always had a strong interest in Rugby League since his early years watching Oldham at Watersheddings.
Peter Moran
Peter is a Solicitor Advocate and Partner in a criminal law practice based in Wigan.
He was appointed to the Community Board by Richard Lewis in 2004.
Peter is steeped in the grassroots of the game
He played schoolboy rugby for St Cuthberts and St John Rigby College before moving to open age with Whelley ARLFC and on its merger, Wigan St Patricks.
He was jointly responsible for the founding of the North West Counties Youth League in the mid 1970's and became its first fixture secretary.
He also took on the role of rugby secretary for the now legendary Wigan St Patricks youth sides for over 15 years and indeed helped build the clubhouse there.
He has held various positions within BARLA, as a Board member, Chair of Youth, Assistant Tour Manager and Ambassador to International Board meetings, whilst he also served as President of the association for many years.
He has been actively involved in the National Conference League virtually since its inception, as Chairman and currently President.
He negotiated its re-branding in conjunction with the RFL in 1994 and has helped secure the League's present dominant position as the premier competition within the Community Game.
He is a lifelong supporter of – and still holds a few shares in – The Wigan Football Club Ltd (Wigan Warriors)
Martin Coyd
Appointed in November 2011, Martin represents the Tier Four clubs on the board.
Born in Warrington in 1964, Martin spent every possible opportunity playing Rugby League in the park and watching Warrington at Wilderspool.
On joining the Royal Engineers in 1983, Martin came across many barriers to playing Rugby League, but despite that he and a group of enthusiastic mates played where they could, including in the fledgling North East League in the late 80's
Martin was instrumental in breaking down one of the last establishment walls when Army Rugby League was formed in 1994.
Appointed as the first Secretary of Army Rugby League, he put in place the structures on which Rugby League is played in the Armed Forces and was appointed as the first Secretary of Combined Services Rugby League in 1997.
On leaving the forces in 2000, Martin had a short period away from the game, settling in Gillingham, Kent, before re-engaging with the sport in the London & The South region.
Initially involved in the new junior league, Martin established Medway Dragons RLFC which now fields 13 teams from under-7 to Masters and includes girls, women's and wheelchair sides.
Martin is current Chair of the London RL Junior League, Scholarship Manager at London Broncos RLFC and Manager of the England Wheelchair RL Team.
He plays Masters for Medway Dragons, had the honour of playing for Great Britain Masters v Australia in July 2010 and is a proud Baht'at
He was recognised in 2011 with a place on The Rugby Football League Roll of Honour.
Fred Baker
Yorkshireman Fred Baker lives in Shropshire where he works as a research technician at a local University.
He is married to Jane and has one son, Jack, currently a student Rugby League player.
Fred first became a fan of Rugby League as a school boy when a family friend took him to Wiggington Road to watch York Wasps. The "buzz" that he got from that game has never left him.
In 1999 he moved from East Yorkshire to Shropshire and was delighted that the existence of the Telford Raiders meant that his son could play his game of choice. The familiar route from enthusiastic parent to administrator, coach and eventually chairperson soon followed.
Fred was involved in the Midlands steering group that pushed forward the development of the junior and senior game in the region.
Over the last ten years he has been proud to play a part in the growth of Rugby League across the whole of the Midlands, and is very aware of the challenges and opportunities that such expansion presents.
He is an active level 2 coach, most recently at club, RPDC and Midlands U18 level.

I feel very confident recommending this hotel because of the price. It was SO cheap and the location was great. It's a little weird that there is no... front desk, so checking in and out was a little confusing. Also, on the site it says there are hair dryers in the room. The actually do not have them in the room, but I asked the owner and he found one for me to borrow. The rooms have a mini kitchenette area with a fridge, microwave and a few things like bottle openers and what not. Also, the hotel is directly over a super market. I will stay at AdaM hotel the next time I travel to Iceland. You can't beat the price. by Kat M. from Brooklyn, NY on 09/07/11

Great Hard Drive. Poor Packaging.
First off, all the reviews about the poor packaging are true. Amazon is really dropping the ball with how they package and ship
s. After reading the reviews on here prior to ordering, I opened the box amazed to find bubble wrap on top of my item. Unfortunately, I then proceeded to find absolutely nothing between my hard drive and the bottom of the box once I removed the top layer of bubble wrap.
But, for the money, this is a great hard drive. Western Digital is one of the most reliable manufacturers. Lucky for me, mine did not arrive DOA due to its packaging.
Bottom line, if you're looking for a great hard drive, WD
is your best bet.

Plugged right in. worked. Bought it for the
size. its on a new computer and nothing on it so cant say much more than it worked right when plugged in and the computer boots up fast.
Adequately Packaged for an OEM Drive
Alright - took a chance and ordered the 1TB
. WD has a long history of making some of the better HDDs in the industry. This review will attempt to address some of the negative issues presenting by other reviewers. First - packaging: upon opening the box, the drive was in another box which was surrounded externally by three units of air bags (strips of three); the drive itself was "suspended" within the second box by the plastic end caps that basically "suspend" the drive from any contact. The source of the shipping facility was from Lexington, KY.
Next,unpacked the drive and formatted to 931GB; ran
Disk Sentinel for a surface scan overnight and no damaged or bad sectors noted. Copied a couple large files to and from the drive with barely any noticeable increase in dB output (the drive I received is relatively a quiet drive compared to the others currently in the system; two other WDs and one Seagate). Actually - the loudest component in the case is the fan cooling the graphics card - this is an older Radeon AGP model.
I am basically confident the drive will last; notwithstanding the possibility of some latent issue that may pop up within the next couple months. This is a great price for the capacity (1TB = functionally 9.5 cents/GB).

I have a question...
is this compatable with with an eMachine running windows XP. Im not sure if the current
is a
or a PATA.
A Huge High-Performance Quiet Internal Hard Drive
This highly advanced and high performance 2 TB Western Digital performs extremely well so far. The most unique feature of this
is the off platter parking and locking when powered down. With this feature, the platters are not likely to suffer shock damages from the heads pounding from rough handling while being shipped. Speaking about shipping, Amazon.com as well as many other online retailer should do a better job of packaging
drives for shipping. My drive was shipped double boxed with the outer box slightly larger with an airbag pillow on one end. The inner box appear to be supplied by Western Digital with two plastic cushioning inserts on the ends and does appear to be adequate. The outer box practically does not offer any more protection from shock damages. The outer box should have been large enough to be fitted with some foam cushioning all around. The other desirable feature that this drive has is that it has dual processors and dual activators for the heads for precise tracking. The secondary activator utilizes piezoelectric technology to really fine tune in on the exact track on the platter quietly. This of course improved performance somewhat.
I purchased this hard drive to use for additional storage on my computer. Because of the high-performance nature I feel this hard drive also makes an excellent boot drive for Windows. Of all the hard drive I ever purchase, it also produced the least amount of vibration when on. It's about as quiet as my Seagate hard drives. The only difference is that it makes the clunk sound occasionally when powered down when the heads park and lock. I'm paranoided from experience with my last two Seagate hard drive purchase that had growing reallocated section count shortly after placed in service. To make sure that I have a sound drive, right after installation I ran Western Digital's own Data Iifeguard For Windows to check for bad sections by running the complete surface scan. This software can be downloaded from Western Digital website. . I also ran a surface scan on this drive using HD Sentinel Pro. Both tests passed with no problems.
Final thoughts: Because this Western Digital is better engineered than any of my previous hard drive, my hope is for longtime reliability. So far I'm fully impressed with the performance I have been receiving. When I ran a benchmark, the maximum read speed was almost 140 MB per second and the minimum was around 70 MB per second. Take for example when transferring files from one hard drive to another. I did an experiment on copying files on copying files from my old storage drive to my new drive. When the file is copy single file at a time the speed remains almost full of around 100 MB per second. But when I copy two files at the same time, the speed chokes down to around 25 MB per second for the two files. I try again on copying two files accept at this time, one file gets copied to the new drive and the other file is copied to my boot drive. The speed also get choked down again to around 25 MB per second for the two files. This proves in a way that the bottleneck is on my old storage drive.
I tried this transferring test again except the new drive is the source this time. I copied one file to my old storage drive as well as copying another file to my boot drive at the same time. Only this time the speed remains the same on whether I copy one file or copying two or more files at the same time. The transfer speed remains close to 100 MB per second whether copying one file or two files at the same time.

Why I am not using mediafire or rapidshare, or other popular hosts
17 September 2008, by Oliver AKA The AdminThe question comes back very often in the comments on hentairules, so I think it will be useful to make a post about it : the next time I am asked, I'll only have to give a link to here
I may as well start with a clarification, do you think rapidshare and mediafire are so cool because they love you ? They're proffit-targeted companies, just like all companies in the world.
All file hosts work the same way : you are displayed advertisements during the download process, and the download is made harder for you unless you purchase a paying membership. Rapidshare and mediafire impose very little restrictions, they count on big traffic with a small earning per visitor. Other companies like depositfiles impose more advertisements and more annoying or more frequent restrictions, that makes them bigger cash machines. And to convince webmasters to use them, they share with the uploaders a part of their revenue.
The fact is, I am often suggested to use popular hosts like rapidshare, mediafire, divshare, badongo, etcetera. Before you reply "yes, but one of your hosts never works for me", please read this page : "You don't like a file host ? Alas, things aren't so simple…"
On my side, I use other hosts instead : depositfiles, sharingmatrix, easy-share, megarotic.
There's a big difference between them : the second ones are paying hosts, the hosts that share with the uploaders a part of the income generated. I do earn money with them.
I am not running hentairules for money. Given I am running my own company, co-founded with other family members, I would earn much more bucks if the time spent on hentairules became additional time spent for my company. Nevertheless, considering the time I spend on hentairules daily, I consider it natural that hentairules is generating a small revenue. I see it as a compensation and as a reward, and an incitement to continue sharing quality hentai on a regular basis.
The largest part of the total site earnings (hosts + ads) pays my server fees (the domain costs nearly nothing, but I had to aim BIG to find a simple hosting capable of handling more than 50k daily visitors and accepting porn websites), and the rest of it is a bonus that is most welcome
I currently spend it with my family, using it to play – or should I write pay – a bigger role in the family activities. More precisely, ATM, I use that money to treat my closest family members (my wife, my two sons, the stepmother, the stepfather, sometimes a stepbrother) at an italian restaurant we love, and every time, I wonder if I should explain my stepmother that her salmon and tagliatelli was paid by dozens of thousands of ejaculations XD
Recently, I also spent the last remains to commission hentai translations from scanlators, when there was enough left.
I hope you aren't annoyed by the fact I make money with hentairules, and if you are annoyed, don't make a rant, remember how big the internet is, I don't ask you to stay, I won't blame you either.
OK, end of the long discussion, that is the reason why I am not going to use non-paying hosts, even if they are easier for you guys
To find more works about a subject ("Dragon Ball" for instance), use the search field in the upper-right corner of the page. When I share enough works by a good artist I create redirection pages with links to all his shared works.
A problem to play videos, or questions like "how to download the zips" or "why does it ask a password, you said there isn't one" ? Read the Help & information page :)
Most elemental rule : if a download fails once, that can happen : try again ! ;-)
You are welcome to share the links to my uploads - I didn't draw the hentai myself anyway - but please, NOT a word-to-word carbon copy, and give my link with it too...

i lol'd
Not a good reply there. I can't download any manga from depositshit ever since!
Not only was this quite elightening, it was pretty funny too… just as much of the personal thoughts you share.
I've a regular to this site for some time now and I always wondered, beyond the little "why depositfiles, yada yada…" how could a family man, who also seems like a smart, educated, funny guy, could possibly run such a site, at such an amazing speed…
My thanks to you for your awesome work here, and my best wishes to you, your family and the wank-payed tagliatellis XD -
lol… i will suggest megapupload since it seems to be the only site that has lifetime membership LOL
I just wanted to say that it doesn't matter to me if you make money out of this. If have to say anything about it, I'd say I'm glad you do.
It's takes a lot of work to keep Hentai Rules going so well and up-to-date as you so wonderfully do. And it doesn't cost me anything to download your shares. I get what I like for free and you get paid for it, a win-win situation to me :p
I looked up a lot of other hentai blogs but I think this one's the best I've found since I lost my favourite years ago (hentai ground-zero), because (1) It has only the good quality stuff, and (2) It's well organised and easy to navigate and find what I'm looking for (Except when you post new releases in the "Just Talking" category).
So, keep up the good work and I'll be sure to keep downlaoding XD -
Well, thank you for your understanding

Women's Basketball Rules Committee proposes to move three-point line back a foot: All recommendations must be approved by the Playing Rules Oversight Panel, which is scheduled to meet via conference call June 9. Read more »
Members of the NCAA Men's Basketball Committee discussed possible rules changes at its meeting in Indianapolis.
By Greg Johnson
The NCAA Men's Basketball Rules Committee on Wednesday recommended a restricted area arc three feet from the center of basket where a secondary defender cannot legally take a charge.
The restricted arc would take effect in the 2011-12 season in all three divisions if it is approved by the NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel.
The restricted arc, which must be clearly marked and discernable in the lane, would take effect in the 2011-12 season in all three divisions if it is approved by the NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel. That group, which considers all proposals from playing-rules committees, has a conference call on June 9. No rules proposals are final until the oversight panel approves them.
The idea of a restricted area arc has gathered momentum over the last few years and was thoroughly vetted at the rules committee meeting held Sunday through Wednesday in Indianapolis.
"We have been very deliberate with our research and consideration of this rule. We believe this is the natural progression from all the data and feedback we've received," said Notre Dame head coach Mike Brey, who chairs the committee. "A high percentage of coaches and administrators favored a visual mark on the floor. Our committee was unanimous in voting this into the game."
In 2009, the committee created an unmarked area directly under the basket where a secondary defender could not legally take a charge.
By proposing the arc, committee members hope to limit the number of collisions near the basket on charge/block plays. The committee considers the matter as a student-athlete safety issue.
Last season, the committee experimented with a restricted area arc two feet from the center of the basket during multi-team events and exhibition games. The experiment extended the previous year's rules change that made it illegal for a secondary defender to take a charge underneath the basket.
"The data and feedback indicated that two feet wasn't enough, but it helped remove some plays at the basket," said Brey.
Some basketball stakeholders wanted visible markings to better define the area where a secondary defender can legally take a charge.
After seeing the arc painted on the court and reviewing data, the committee recommended a three-foot arc as being the suitable distance for the college game where the lane is 12-feet wide.
"The arc at this distance fits the dimensions of our court," Brey said. "We feel this is a rule that can help offensive players get to the basket and limit physical play."
In other action, the committee changed the nomenclature on fouls that are deemed more severe than a "common" foul.
The terms "Flagrant 1" and "Flagrant 2" will now be used in these situations. A Flagrant 1 foul takes the place of an intentional foul and the Flagrant 2 foul replaces the previous flagrant foul.
An example of a Flagrant 1 foul would be a player who swings an elbow and makes non-excessive contact with an opponent above the shoulders. The team whose player was struck would receive two free throws and possession of the ball.
Previously, this type of foul was called an intentional foul. The committee wanted to move away from the word "intentional," because a player's intent was never the point to the rule.
"We want to be clear on the language so no one is confused," Brey said. "The reason we used intentional last year was to increase the penalty. It didn't have anything to do with intent."
An example of a Flagrant 2 foul would be a player who swings an elbow excessively and makes contact with an opponent above the shoulders. In this case, the player who threw the elbow would be ejected from the game, and the other team would receive two free throws and the ball.
Committee members had a lengthy discussion on a proposal that would have allowed head coaches to call timeouts only during dead ball periods.
One area of concern for coaches calling timeouts during live-ball situations was the loose-ball scrums that occur during games.
Examples shown during the meeting amplified the dilemma officials face in these scenarios. They have to discern if it is indeed the head coach requesting the timeout and make sure his team has possession of the ball when the timeout was called.
The concept wasn't recommended by the committee, which felt head coaches should still be allowed to call timeouts during live-ball situations.
The committee requested that continued education be provided to officials to handle these scenarios.

Beyond the Desktop
Microsoft and the move Toward Web Documents
I recently attended a seminar on enhancements in Office 2000. I found Microsoft's first steps into collaborative documents very intersting. In their applications, you have the option to save your document as 'HTML' (more accurately, MS-XML). While the base data is visible in just about any web browser, to see things as you would see them in the application, you need Internet Explorer 5.
What is more interesting is that if you have a server supporting Office Extensions, IE 5, and Office 2000 applications, you can actually manipulate and change these documents on the web site. Questions of proprietary locking and security aside, this is a major selling point for Office 2000, at least according to their marketing people. Presumably, Microsoft wants this trend to continue, and will continue enhancing this feature.
We (Open Source or Free Software proponents) talk about harnessing the power of the Internet with our software, but mostly to improve our software. Look at things from a business perspective. Suppose my job is to coordinate the integration of thirty different components into one widget at five different manufacturing plants across the globe. I could be dealing with at least half a dozen component providers and representatives from each manufacturing plant, along with logistics planners and marketing wizards to regulate the production line, not to mention engineers developing new products or testing the components. Assuming that I kept all of the data for each particular widget in a spreadsheet, much of my job would be spent entering and integrating data from each of the various locations and job functions into that spreadsheet, just so my equations would balance and we could meet production demand and reduce inventory costs.
Now suppose that each manufacturing center had access to specific areas of my document where they could update their inventories and integration capabilities. Each supplier could have access to fields where they could update their delivery numbers and schedules. Marketing might have the ability to update their forecasts. My job would suddenly be easier, because I would not have to integrate data from e-mails or cut and paste it from spreadsheets into my tool. Everyone would have access to the appropriate area of my particular document.
From a business standpoint, that's a pretty tempting idea. Questions of vendor lock and security aside (for the moment), that could save a great deal of time and money, for a small investment.
The Network and the Computer
Another interesting idea is the thought of thin-client or network computing. Each person may have a small computer (something more than a dumb-terminal but less than a full-blown workstation) which has the ability to run applications from a server. It may not have much more power -- you'd never think of recompiling your kernel on it, as it does little more than act as a remote keyboard, mouse, and display for the big iron server Sun wants to sell you. Files and user settings are stored on the server.
With centralized storage (and questions of vendor lock and security still set aside), you might be able to access your documents anywhere you have access to a thin client or network computer. Want to telecommute? No problem. Need to travel to a supplier or a customer site and make a presentation? No problem. (Want to authenticate your identity beyond a shadow of a doubt? That's another essay altogether.)
The selling points there include standardized hardware (if your machine breaks, swap it with another -- no need to transfer user settings or documents or reinstall your operating system), a centralized point of upgrades (add a new hard drive to the server, or another network card, or another CPU) and easy access to data (relatively speaking). Drawbacks definitely include likely proprietary hardware and software and a central point of failure (if the network is the computer, what happens when the network goes down?). Besides that, given the proliferation of decent, fairly inexpensive workstation prices today, the total costs may be less to pay a couple of hundred dollars more for a full-blown computer than a bunch of thin clients and a massive server -- even if your hardware platform, OS, and application suites of choice will cost more to administer.
Still, the benefits are worth looking into.
Where We're Going With This
The question we ought to be asking is, "How can we develop a framework of computing that allows users to collaborate and to share data from divergent places, while being concerned about security and open standards?" In the language of business, we might ask, "What is the best way to improve the managing of information from different sources if our values are cost, convenience, and performance?"
We will assume that it is generally cheaper to use the existing Internet infrastructure than to create a dedicated network between our collaborators, even if that means leasing a new T1. (These are probably already present in many larger businesses.) This has the additional benefit of allowing access from new places, such as a new supplier or customer -- provided they already have Internet access.
What Should Our Applications Look Like?
I intimated earlier that Microsoft's view of things is becoming web-centric. That is, a web browser (indeed, *their* web browser) is the primary interface to these documents. While this has the benefits of an interface relatively familiar to many business users, it has many drawbacks.
The primary drawback is appropriateness. Can you imagine writing an Engineering Requirements Document in a web browser? How about in a Java applet or an ActiveX program? How about editing mathematical formulas, or drawing an organization chart? Just because something is easy to use (or familiar) for one purpose does not make it the appropriate tool for other jobs. (If you're confused by the Jargon, just imagine trying to write your resume with a white crayon on wax paper. No offense to the Java folks.)
One company I know of (Instinctive Technologies) supplies a product called eRoom. This is a web-based service which lets users access eRooms (basically user directories prentending to be embedded in web pages), modify documents in the rooms, participate in discussions, and track changes. It supports version control and file locking.
It's not a perfect product, but it does illustrate some of the issues which will have to be addressed. First, access is limited to users who have a correct login name and password -- this is encrypted by the web browser and sent to the eRoom server. Next, access to specific eRooms and directories (or folders) within the rooms is granted by means of an access list. Users are given specific rights to specific areas. Administrators can even create groups of people, assigning rights to groups (aligned along business function or task lines).
Another feature is that of version control. Suppose I were to create the first draft of this document and allow other people to make changes to it. Worse yet, I spread my work by e-mailing the document to everyone who might like to read or to change it. After two or three days, there may be dozens of incomplete or incompatible versions floating around. Version control attempts to manage this by only allowing one person access to make changes at a time and by tracking all of the changes made. This is nothing new -- source code control systems such as CVS have had this for a long time. (Programmer's note: would binary versions of diff and patch be appropriate here for non-text documents?)
Who Decides Your Document Type?
In theory, the eRoom system should work with any document type (there being two -- pure and unadulterated text, viewable by just about any program on any platform, and some binary format, possibly viewable in only one specific application on one specific platform). In practice, I have only seen it used to store Microsoft Office documents -- Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
To put it bluntly, this is a bad business decision. This is also purely my analysis. Imagine, if you will, that your company enters into a contract with another company. Your company agrees to deliver certain items according to certain specifications. To read and edit those specifications, you must use a certain program (we'll say Microsoft Word 2000) on a certain platform (Windows 9x or NT) running on certain hardware (x86 PC architecture). If you did not normally use this program, platform, or hardware, you would have a few options.
You could set up one specific machine just for this contract, and have one person coordinate the changes. That would involve converting the file FROM that format TO a format your employees could edit, editing the file, and converting it BACK to that format for transfer to the other company. Big Grins for Bill Gates, Big Yawns for that poor employee. (There are ways to automate this, but consider this. If your company were in Quebec, and you set up a business deal with a company in Mexico City, would you rely on French->Spanish and Spanish->French translations every time you wanted to communicate? Or would you look for a common ground lingua franca, perhaps English? (Okay, bad pun. But the point remains.))
You could convert all of your users who will be working on that specific contract to the new hardware, platform, and software. This would involve retraining and possibly converting existing documents and converting to new software on the new platform on the new hardware -- a significant investment indeed.
You could object to the whole dilemma, arguing that there are existing document standards not tied to a specific platform or application or hardware, but you probably wouldn't get the contract.
That's the problem.
Yes, it is good and even necessary to adapt to your customers or clients or associates. However, should they have the right to dictate your business practices? Do you have the right to dictate theirs? Proprietary document standards do just that.
Let me give another example. I have seen the relationship between a manufacturing center and a group of engineers testing designs and components for products which have not yet gone into full production. The manufacturing center upgraded its project timeline software. The new version of the software used a different document format than the previous version. Thus, any of the engineers who wished to be able to read the new timelines from the manufacturer had no choice but to upgrade their software as well. Unfortunately, their company was in the middle of negotiating a license agreement with the software manufacturer, and the software was not available. (The software had to be purchased at a local retailer and installed on one machine. The user of that machine then had the task of opening and printing all of those timelines because he was the only person who could).
Please note that both the manufacturing center and the engineers were using the same product from the same software company on the same platforms. In fact, they were using roughly the same timelines altogether! However, because of the proprietary document format which changed between versions, the two groups were unable to communicate as they had done before. Shame on the software company for being unable (or, more likely, unwilling) to maintain compatibility with *its own product*. Once one company upgrades, other companies feel the need to upgrade to maintain file format compatibilities. This is only good for the software companies who use proprietary document formats.
Still don't believe me? Try to buy a new business computer these days without the latest and greatest versions of software on them. Are their document formats compatible with the previous versions? Maybe... but not all of them. And you may have to search the menus and boxes and widgets to find out how to become compatible.
Where are We Going?
What can be done? How do all of these anecdotes tie together?
What if business could share information with other businesses? What if people could edit their documents from just about any other computer in the world? What if sharing data with other people didn't mean having to buy new software or new hardware?
For those of us involved in Open Source and Free Software, what if we could provide businesses with the tools they needed to accomplish those goals?
The first thing we would need is some medium which businesses and users can use to share information. We've already discussed the Internet in general. E-mail is a possibility -- but that introduces various risks. First, it was never really designed to be an efficient medium to transfer binary information. Text is just fine, but your document format isn't likely to be text. It is easy to use, though.
How about the web? Microsoft, Instinctive, and other companies are using their web servers as a central repository for documents. Indeed, they are putting more security measures in place and are writing more software to handle other document types. Still, we've talked about limitations of web browsers.
Perhaps what would be best is some sort of hybrid -- accessible via a web-like interface or address, but opening in a separate program. (The Unix philosophy of lots of small programs each doing one thing well, able to be linked together for more power and flexibility, applies.) The program would need to have security built in from the ground up (using PGP or SSH or some other method of ensuring privacy and encrypting data).
One weakness in this idea is that users must ensure their identities if they are to work from different locations. While a username and password would fulfill this requirement, it wouldn't fulfill it as well as a 128-bit encryption key (or part of a key pair). Perhaps users could use a credit card sized device which generates a unique number based on a memorizable PIN and a hard-coded algorithm would do the trick.
Larger companies could set up their own secure servers for their own organization and business contacts, while smaller companies might be in the business of providing server space and hosting for other smaller companies. It's a service. (The most forward thinking would put server farms in different geographic areas ... the Superhighway metaphor is only valid once you start to realize that there are a lot of people living right off of dirt roads and goat tracks.)
What about document formats? Is there a way to ensure that your company doesn't have to play the upgrade game every time you work with a new supplier or a new customer?
Fanfare, please. Consider XML (Extensible Markup Language). Without getting into terribly specific details, XML provides a way to classify data. For example, you could create a document type for a business address:
<contact>Paul Jones</contact>
<business>Metacreative Fizzles</business>
<street>1595 W. 14th</street>
<mailstop>MS 410</mailstop>
<city>Baton Rouge</city>
Any application which implements a valid XML parser should be able to handle this, provided it is correct XML. (If that worries you, consider that you expect your business applications to be able to handle their native document formats correctly anyway.) Also, since the data itself is marked up (that's what the keywords between the greater-than and less-than signs are for), the applications can manipulate the data.
Read that again if you don't see the benefit right away.
What this all means is that if you and your business contacts agree on XML, it doesn't matter which XML-aware application you use! It doesn't matter which hardware you use, or which platform you use. (Which application matters -- not all of them support XML yet. But we're in a position to change that.)
If the document format isn't tied to particular software or hardware or platform any more, and if you are authorized by the security measures, you can access, display, and manipulate your documents anywhere that has Internet access. Moreover, so can anyone else you choose.
You can create a document in Alaska on a Pentium II machine running Windows 2000, and your Malaysian manufacturing team can update their inventory lists in it from their SPARC stations, while your embedded software guru updates the codes from his PowerPC running Linux. You can display only the relevant parts of the document to each group.
Now to achieve this goal programmatically, you'll need some software. You'll need software to store the documents. You'll need software to serve the documents, put the proper security on the files, manage changes, and lock access to files which are being modified. You'll need software to read and understand and modify your documents on the servers.
Another thing you'll definitely need is a DTD. That's a Document Type Definition which tells your XML Parser exactly what it should expect. Without getting into hairy definitions (which is basically what a DTD is), it describes the kinds of tags (stuff between the < and > brackets) to expect in what order. It does not tell you what the tags mean and what to do with the information -- that is a job for something else (an XSL enabled processor, perhaps, or an application program). XML is merely a way of marking up data, of describing the data in logical -- and easily parsable -- ways.
How Do We Get There?
Don't worry too much about that. Those of us who have the ability to write software like this have lots of good tools. We have programming languages like C and Perl and Java, which can build good software which run on a variety of platforms with various amounts of ease. We have lots and lots of standards already in place which we can leverage for what is good and what works. We have lots of programs which are already working which solve some of the problems I've already mentioned. Most of all, we have the skills and the desire to tackle some of the things which haven't already be done. It's what we like to do.
The one thing to watch out for is subversion of the standard. If you like the idea of being able to exchange information between users and between companies without having to convert it from one proprietary format into another, help us fight to make it a reality. Some software companies have made lots of money off of fragmenting the world, of making sure that people have to buy new software every couple of years just to read memos and columns of numbers. Those companies stand to lose a lot if, all of a sudden, information is unconstrained by proprietary file formats. The rest of us stand to gain tremendously if we can win back our freedom.
Give us some time and some support, and we'll amaze you. Just let us know what you want and give us a chance to do it. We'll do it. Even better, we'll do it for the right reasons -- not because we want you to be locked in to our software and our solutions, but because we think that helping people communicate is a really good thing.

Samohi Chops Down Mission Hills 51-33
Posted Mar. 12, 2013, 10:43 pm
The Santa Monica (28-6) boys basketball team was just smarter and faster then Mission Hills(29-5) outthinking and outscoring the Grizzlies 51-33 in the CIF State Playoffs Tuesday night even though the Grizzlies had 7'0" CIF San Diego Section Player of the Year Kameron Rooks. Mission Hills Basketball Head Coach Curtis Hofmeister said that the Santa Monica defense limited the shooting chances of Rooks and that was why the Vikings won the game. "He's been a workhorse for us," said Hofmeister. "Good things happen when he gets the ball. Unfortunately we didn't get him the ball enough and I give credit to them."

Do you feel all alone in this world?Have people let you down time and again?Does it feel like there's no one that you can trust?Do you keep trying to fill that emptiness or longing to be loved, but can't find that something to fill that void?Does it feel like no one loves you?Well, I have some good news for you; there is someone that truly loves you.
The Bible, Gods holy word, tells us in John 3:16 "For God so loved the world (that's you and I) that he gave his only begotten son (That's Jesus), that whosoever (meaning anyone) believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.Wow! Can you imagine that?Someone actually loving you so much, that he sacrificed his only son so that you can live?In John 15:13, Jesus tells us "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." That is just what He did; Jesus laid down his life for you when he died on Calvary.Jesus can fill that void in your heart, he is the best friend that you could ever have. Only he can truly love and comfort you whenever you need it.All you need to do is prove to him your love by giving him you life, as he gave his for you.Ask Jesus to forgive you for being unfaithful to him.Tell him that you are ready to love him, not only with your words, but also with your actions that you want to be a part of his life, his plan and that you want to spend eternity with him.Tell him that you will no longer hurt him by doing those things you know are wrong. James 4:17If you do this, something wonderful will happen; He will abundantly forgive you. (2 Chronicles 7:14)He has been patiently waiting for you to ask him. And the other thing that he will do, God has given us a promise, that as long as we are faithful to him, he will never leave or forsake us, no matter what. This promise can be found in, Hebrews 13:5. Now that is true love.For more information about God's love and provision or the Church of God visit www.churchofgodcarmichael.org We encourage you to stop by and taste a little bit of heaven. Thanks for listening.

Perhaps everything hasn't gone so well in your life in the past. Regardless, of how big our mistakes are, learn from them. We are all human, and all make mistakes. Learn and move on.
A runner starts his race and knows he has somewhere to get to. We need to know where we are going spiritually and physically. Runners also understand that there are obstacles. Obstacles are a part of life. Embrace them don't run from them. Runners don't have time to look back. Their race is from that point in front of them. Don't look back. Keep looking forward. Runners press forward and beat the mind battle.
Our goal is to make it to heaven and help others make heaven their home. Keep striving for that.
Quitting is not an option. Don't put yourself in a position to where you just quit. Fight for something as if it is already yours. Spend time in prayer. Runners have to realize there is joy in the end. Visualize finishing! Don't quit!
Christ always stopped and took time for others. Even to those who were his enemies.
Anything that you really want to do, you can do it! If we are going to accomplish anything we can't get overwhelmed. Lean on others. Remember we are all human!
Luke 13:24 24 Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.
Put forth effort to win the goal! Everything in life does not just come easily. Excuses will only hinder us. Our call is arise go and doubt not! Don't doubt yourself, God will help you. Many are called but few are chosen! Don't settle to live on the sidelines.
What can we bring? Use what talents god gives you for his glory.
When god wants you to do something, don't listen to your doubts. Don't think about what you haven't been able to do, but think about what you have been able to do. Life has its challenges but our help is from God.
We must be willing to give up some things. It takes sacrifice to accomplish some things.
We can't clock out of life. Don't let devil tell us we can't, because we can with God's help. One way to prevent the enemy from winning is to keep a positive attitude! Other people can do it and so can you, with God's help!

Here are six good ideas to try and calm down symptoms of hand eczema:
1. Take an antihistamine. This stops the chemicals in your skin that are telling your brain that your hands itch. Benadryl is a time-tested and very effective choice. It does cause most people to become sleepy. If this is a problem, try ceftrizine (generic versions form places like Costco or brand name Zyrtec), or generic loratidine (brand name Claritin). You only need to take these once a day. Ceftrizine probably causes the least sleepiness. Benadryl works the fastest, if you need immediate relief.
WARNING: Do not put diphenhydramine on your skin. When it is applied to the skin it can actually cause worsening of skin problems. Benadryl sells a topical spray which includes Benadryl along with povidine and zinc acetate, among others.
2. For immediate relief, try and also get them chemicals off your hands right now. Wash them with the mildest possible soap, and as little of that as possible. Use Dove for sensitive skin, Neutrogena or Basis soap if you have it or can get it, with lukewarm water. Absolutely avoid anything that says anti-bacterial, like Dial. Anything that says it kills bacteria has chemicals in it that will aggravate your eczema.
3. After your hands are clean and dry, liberally use a good moisturizer. Avoid lanolin, parabens, fragrances, coloring agents and anything else you believe you may be allergic to. Moisturel and Cetaphil are usually good. Check ingredients because most products are reformulated every few years. The fewer ingredients in the moisturizer the better.
4. Put cortisone cream on the worst areas. You can buy 1% hydrocortisone cream over the counter. You can use this twice a day. Unfortunately, at this time, most 1% hydrocortisone has parabens in it, as well as other possibly problematic ingredients like aloe vera. One brand that seems to be parabens-free is Hyderm. You can to find paraben-free hydrocortisone. If you can't, and over-the-counter medication does not help, you may need to see a doctor to get a different preparation. 2 ½% hydrocortisone cannot be obtained without a prescription, but can be found in paraben-free formulations.
5. Don't scratch. Besides the antihistamine, if an area is driving you crazy, put a cold pack or some ice on it. Cooling it down may stop the itching. If you scratch, your eczema will get worse and it may get infected.
6. To prevent this from worsening later, stop getting all the soaps, chemicals, detergents, paints, and any other irritants you can think of off your hands. This also includes keeping your hands out of water almost all of the time. When you must wash dishes, or use chemicals, wear non-latex gloves, with liners of white cotton. Some gloves are sold with liners. Other times you have to buy them separately. Latex-free gloves are recommended because some people are allergic to latex. If you don't react to latex, you can you latex gloves but with the cotton lining. The lining absorbs the sweat your hands make, thereby keeping them dryer.
There are other things that don't work as quickly but are just as important. You may need to buy a vaporizer/humidifier if the air in your house is dry. Women may have to stop using nail polish or getting manicures at least temporarily to see if it makes a difference. When you put makeup on your face with your fingers, the chemicals can also aggravate hand eczema. It is very common to have a combination of hand eczema and allergic reactions to things you get on your hands. You may need to try and figure out any specifics that are making your eczema worse. This often involves some detective work.
If your eczema is bad, you need to see a doctor to get stronger and also some different medication. There are also some tests that can be done to evaluate eczema that is hard to treat and/or look for allergies or infections that can worsen the skin.

Dear Bric, you don't need anyone to tell you about media bias, all you need do is watch. Like the President's news conference and that surrogate who asked the question about "a war on women". I just love those "journalists", they ask something like "some people say...." and we're supposed to accept it as valid.
It once was that no one knew Walter Cronkite was a socialist because he was an actual journalist. Now there is no doubt where the newzies stand, just listen or read.
Republicans have misplayed the whole contraception debate and their support from women is declining daily. Journalists are biased and there is no such thing as fair and balanced. That a journalist would ask that question in today's climate is not surprising. We have important issues and wedge issues, the latter which drive votes. The lack of response of candidates (other than Rand Paul) to Rush Limbaugh's horrific attack has opened up a major attack point and it should not be a surprise to see it pounced on.
I agree with you, though, on the use of "some people say" as being journalistically lazy.

I'm taking a break from blog-writing this Thanksgiving, and I imagine most readers will be taking a break from blog-reading. Instead of fighting about politics in the comments section with people you've never met, you'll be fighting with your nearest and dearest around the dinner table.
So I'll leave you to it, with a bit of Thanksgiving wisdom from an editorial observer Lincoln Caplan wrote last year. He tells me this particular column drew more feedback than anything he's written in his 15-month tenure on the board.

Few things in Hollywood are as they first appear.
That was the case again this weekend when studio executives for Sony Pictures Entertainment said that the Tim Burton fantasy ''Big Fish'' beat out the final chapter of ''The Lord of the Rings '' for the No.1 spot at the domestic box office. Howls could be heard from Beverly Hills to Malibu on Sunday morning as competitors called early estimates for ''Big Fish'' foul.
Now that the final numbers are in, ''The Lord of The Rings: The Return of the King'' continues to reign at the box office. ''Big Fish'' earned $13.8 million in its first weekend of wide release, according to the box-office tracker Exhibitor Relations, compared with the $14.5 million originally projected by Columbia Pictures, a unit of Sony. ''The Lord of The Rings,'' on the other hand, brought in $14.2 million, more than its original $14.1 million tally, giving the movie a total of $312 million since opening Dec. 17.
