"Traveller's checks in US dollars is also a great investment up front because they are accepted nearly everywhere."
- Angie, Tour Manager, USA
Surprisingly, it is generally difficult to change foreign currency cash and traveller's cheques in the USA.
Travellers cheques in US$ however are very widely accepted. If you do choose to use traveller's cheques it is strongly recommended that you choose cheques in US$ in $20 and $50 denominations.
US$ Traveller's cheques are accepted as cash in many US retail stores and US$ travelers cheques are also widely accepted in Canada.
Make a note of your travellers cheque numbers, leave a copy at home and carry a copy separate from your cheques in case of loss or theft.

For those who are not aware of monacle.io, it's a beautiful, mobile-first link sharing webpage design, and now it's open source! Here's how you can give it a no-tears deployment on Heroku.
Docker has been hot in the news in the second half of this year. If you're unaware of this project, or you just haven't kept up, it's time to get caught up! Here are 9 Docker articles from 2013.
This article from PyCon was titled "How we use Python at Spotify" but I wanted to focus on the fact that they also use ZeroMQ. It's a little difficult to find a list of the big-name companies that use ZeroMQ, but now you can rest assured that one of the biggest fish in the IT pond use it.
Nanomsg, a fork of the ZeroMQ broker, is moving along smoothly this year. It recently reached version 0.3.3, which I didn't find much information on, but I thought I'd get you caught up if you're not aware of this interesting project.
Today, about two months after the announcement of the Docker-RedHat collaboration and not long after dotCloud became Docker, Inc., there is a major new release of Docker that proclaims unequivocal support for all Linux distributions, including RHEL, which RedHat was eager to implement.
This session will discuss the transformation of the most widely distributed cable TV network in the United States, building on one of the world's most visited digital properties, to create a world class Big Data platform.
This talk will explore how we find the sweet spot on the continuum between PaaS and IaaS cloud models to provide both the productivity and flexibility you desire.
Last week, Heroku open sourced id.heroku.com, a key part of their authentication infrastructure, under the very permissive MIT license.
This talk will provide a unique opportunity to hear from the chief technology officer at the leading PaaS and cloud expert who has worked with hundreds of companies that are leveraging cloud application development platforms and adopting next generation technologies.
It's about time we learned all about the technology behind Docker, from the creators. This is an especially useful presentation because it doesn't only cover the advantages of using Go, but also some of the drawbacks to expect.
Because of it's growing popularity, I thought it would make sense to provide a nice bundle of video tutorials on Digital Ocean (for the visual learner). Digital Ocean has made a name for themselves by providing super-fast, super-cheap pure-SSD hosting.
Recognizing the swelling popularity of JavaScript, Amazon has finally released a developer preview SDK that can populate S3 buckets, manage SQS message queues, create, populate, and query DynamoDB tables, and much more!
Lots of new releases including NetBeans 7.4, FontAwesome 4.0, and native PIP for Python 3.4. News about these, plus a book on "conversational Git" and some potentially harmful CSS practices.
My feature is working! Oh wait... now this is happening... Another week of gifs for when programs fall apart.
MongoDB doesn't really bring much new stuff to the table. Whereas Cassandra has an innovative consistency protocol, Redis has "crazy data structures," and Hadoop has powerful batch data-processing abilities, MongoDB has mmap. But that's okay.

Restaurants in Albuquerque, Santa Fe and Northern New Mexico, searchable by cuisine and location, with ratings and reviews. Get educated before you eat! Ezra's PlaceTue-Sat: 11am-3pm, 5-9pm
Sun: 9am-2pm
Closed Monday (subject to change) Full review: Sophia's little brother is quirky but charming (5/14/2009) From the folks who brought us Sophia's Place (breakfast and lunch only), Ezra's Place is just a short jog down the street inside the Lucky 66 Bowl. Chef Dennis is playing with dinner in the same lane-side dining room where Sadie's got its start. The Kobe beef burger is what all burgers should aspire to be, and at $10 (served with blue cheese, caramelized red onion and a heap of those shoestring fries), it's an outright steal. Other dishes span a wide and surprising ingredient range (Asadero cheese? Duck confit and free-range chicken?) but the comfort-food quality (tacos, et al) make this place at home in the bowling alley. Open for lunch and dinner, plus brunch on the weekends.

"The mayor of a town on Réunion Island has been forced to back down from a decision to pay fishermen to hunt and kill sharks because it contravenes French conservation law.
On Monday 30 July, Thierry Robert MP, mayor of St Leu commune near Trois-Bassins, where a bull shark was believed to have been responsible for the death of a surfer last week, made the decision to "act to safeguard the security of goods and people of his town" by authorising fishing of the bull shark "by any means, including spearfishing, day and night".
He said the town would buy bull sharks of more that five feet caught by all fishermen or hunters, and pay €2 per kilo of live weight for the first 30 sharks bought to the marina."

Monk (Tony Shalhoub) is called in to investigate by the store's security manager Joe Christie (Enrico Colantoni), who suspects foul play. The assignment proves most distasteful for Monk, inasmuch as Christie is his ex-partner, who'd been thrown off the force for stealing drugs. Despite his animosity toward Christie, Monk manages to figure out that Edna was, indeed, murdered--but NOT for what seems to be the most obvious motive. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Emergency sirens to be tested monthly
Carlton County Emergency Preparedness Director Brian Belich recently announced that there will now be monthly testing of the emergency sirens in Cloquet, Scanlon, Carlton, Wrenshall, Barnum, Kettle River and Moose Lake.By: Wendy Johnson, Pine Journal
If you keep the radio on in your office or home, you'll no doubt recognize the familiar sound of the monthly test of the Emergency Alert System. Its distinctive lead-in tone is enough to make you sit up and take notice, even as you mentally calculate if there's an impending disaster or whether it's simply the first week of the month designated for the regular test drill.
For those who are out and about town, however, one of the best warning systems is still the audible emergency siren system located in several communities throughout Carlton County. To make certain that system is more reliable, Carlton County Emergency Preparedness Director Brian Belich recently announced that there will now be monthly testing of the emergency sirens in Cloquet, Scanlon, Carlton, Wrenshall, Barnum, Kettle River and Moose Lake.
The sirens will be set off the first Wednesday of each month at 1 p.m. Belich said prior to this time, the sirens had not been tested on a regular basis – often only as a test drill during the annual Severe Weather Awareness Day every April – leaving the system vulnerable to the possibility of malfunction in between times.
In 2010, the city of Rochester, Minn., had 10 of its emergency warning sirens fail to sound in the minutes before a tornado struck the northwestern edge of the city. Officials blamed it on a software glitch that told the sirens to cancel. Thankfully, no one was injured.
That same year in Duluth, the emergency sirens sounded when no tornado warning had been issued for the city. Instead, the warning was intended for Floodwood, which was within the warning zone, but once again, faulty software was to blame for the mix-up. Belich said regular testing should help alleviate some of these types of issues before an actual emergency should occur.
Also, in the past some of the communities in Carlton County have used their warning sirens to page first responders.
"This will no longer be the case," said Belich. "At this time these sirens will only be used for notifying the public of an emergency situation, and they should tune in to their local television or radio stations for more information."
In the case of an actual weather emergency, the county's emergency sirens are activated through the Emergency Dispatch System as soon as the National Weather Service issues a weather warning for the area, or when a funnel cloud has been sighted by someone in the county and reported to authorities.
For more information, contact Belich at 218-384-3236.

If it wasn't already exciting enough to have eternal "Golden Girl" Betty White host an episode of Saturday Night Live, now comes news that Jay-Z will be performing on the same show.
On May 8th, the two unlikely stars will appear together on SNL, along with former cast members Tina Fey, Amy Poehler and Molly Shannon.
So, can we expect Betty to grab the mic and join Hova for a collabo? Probably not, but White at least seems psyched about the rap mogul's appearance. She recently told Zap2It, "Well, that'll be interesting! It'll be great fun."

I just got my hands on 2L of instant -45C in a bottle and a A10-6800k so I started messing with the bios to make friends with it and after I down clock the iGPU NB and ram to a minimum so I wouldn't burn through my 2L of coolant I noticed that I can't get to the option for disabling cores which is key for CPU frequency runs. So I wanted to ask if anyone knows what the problem might be. Because if I figure out how to turn of 3 of my cores I swear to hit 6Ghz. Please reply ASAP as I want to get in on the Asrock A10FM2 OC competition with atleast an ok score to start carving a name for myself and this is all that's stoping me
it's an Asrock a85x extreme 6 I looked at cadave review's bios section and I noticed that I can't find the core leveling mode thing but that doesn't look like what I'm looking for anyway. I tried google but obviously very few people want to turn cores off on a quad core so I got absolutely nothing there.
Anyone? Cuz I'm considering that I'll just have to flash it but I'd rather not risk bricking my board for something that may or may not even fix the problem.
A question for you people here. In the CineBench 11.5 result window, is there anything special about the number at the top left not matching the number by the orange line down in the graph?
Could you send a pic of what you're talking about cuz I bench cinebench a lot and I have no idea what you could be referring to.
On another topic I want to say I hate the asrock a85x extreme 6 from the 8 phase vrm to the bios chip because it is one really awful board. The BIOS lacked several key settings and what wasn't missing was so stupidly designed that it would've been better if it wasn't there. Maximum voltage was 1.55v which you got to by slowly scrolling through a 50+ option drop down menu. The cpu thermal probe isn't even close to the actual cpu cores. And the vrm was running stupid hot at what I believe was 1.6v (llc at max gives serious voltage over shoot). However in the process of hating this board I was also searchching for the best application method of my exceptionaly cheap freeze spray. Direct to cpu application is a no go the same goes for using a one piece aircooler as a sort of inverted LN2 pot. No this stuff only really works when sprayed at the intake fan of a watercooling radiator quickly turning the warm water into sub ambient water. If done on a large enough scale I believe you could get the water coming out if the radiator within a few degrees of the evaporation temperature of the coolant so around -40c. However this will require two people one to spray the coolant and the other to mess with the computer settings. Happy benching. Next time I'll be explaining how VRMs work and what makes a good vrm a good vrm. BTW I found the sweet spot for benching my cpu it's 5.25ghz (the 3960x not the a10)
This is from the following submission: http://hwbot.org/submission/2438361_munchen_cinebench_r11.5_a6_3500_3.08_points
It's not mine. Just thought that the orange would always match the number up top. Saw it while perusing a rivals submission... Still can't get my head around how he got it there. The information is a bit hard to get through. :S Edit: Also, any good way of checking VRM temps?
TPUs bench competition starts soon, hope to see some names on the stages http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/showthread.php?t=191333
does anyone think it would be a good idea to get one really fast 4GB stick for benching or should I just go through my current ones and check to see which is best because my current sticks are 6x4 1600 corsairs(maximum 1666mhz 8-9-9-24 1T @ 1.725v) and 4x4 2133 g.skills(maximum 2333mhz 11-12-12-32 1T @ 1.69v)
One? I would get two as some benchmarks (not sure which off the top of my head) will make use of dual channel.
So would this be OK or should I go with something like these Sorry the links aren't in English but here where I don't have much choice and I don't want to go checking that I picked RAM available here when I provide a link

Here is a poem I wrote it is apropos and germane to this discussion."Religious Ruins"
ByAs I walked around the ruins, of what used to be a church,
I could almost hear the preacher, reciting verse by verse.
He read his Bible daily, and he told us what it meant,
But somehow with his translation, the words lost their intent.I walked up to the alter with, its crenellated wood,
and I thought of times I spent there, just trying to be good.
I thought of people going there, on sunny Sunday morns,
With cash and checks and weekly tithes, those little sheep were shorn.Yes, many were the hours spent, by people in that church,
But they came not for salvation, for God was not their search.
With money, gold and precious gems, to make their wallets swell
Those Preachers craving sex and power assured their place in hell.Tight dresses, rouge and pink high heels, to go with well coifed hair,
a wink, a nod, a rendezvous, affairs devoid of prayers.
At night she'd scream "Oh, God! Oh God!" and he'd scream words so foul,
But while in church they hid their lust, clandestine, broken vows.And then there were the pedophiles, that craved those little boys,
They passed around those innocents, like old and broken toys.
They used the fear of God to rule, those children they beguiled,
A special hell awaits those fiends, for all those lives defiled,The Song books filled, with loving-care, have long since turned to dust.
The wooden pews lay splintered now, Great Iron gates just rust.
Cathedral bells have disappeared, as loot for infidels.
And priests and ministers still mourn their fate in prison cells.The universal soul was lost, where once pure love was taught,
t'was mixed with politics and greed, and worship went for naught
The morning sunbeams still shine on, the Crucifix above,
I wonder what it means to them, who lost their faith and love.The landscaped graveyard by the Church stays manicured with pride,
Old Monuments of brass and stone, praise all those men who died
Young maids no longer kneel beside, those rows of white head stones,
Without their faith they see no point, in honoring dead bones.Like howls of wolves from distant hills, a cold wind chills my heart,
It whips down through, the belfry tower, and tells me to depart.
I close the doors to what was once, the house of Godly ways,
and wander through the smoky graves, of charlatans and knaves.I turned and looked back in disgust, at where that evil dwelled,
And wonder if those wicked men, will congregate in hell.
You'll know when you get there.
P.S. Don't quite your day job... if you have one.

5/04/2009: US Panel Says Nigeria Among Worst Violators... - International Christian Concern |
US Panel Says Nigeria Among Worst Violators of Religious Freedom WASHINGTON, D.C. (May 4, 2009) - International Christian Concern (ICC) has learned that the annual report by the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom designated Nigeria as a country of particular concern for "tolerating systematic, ongoing, and egregious violations of freedom of religion." Nigeria has been plagued by religious violence since 1999 when Sharia law was introduced in the northern part of the country. Since then, the Christian minority in northern Nigeria has been more severely persecuted by Islamic extremists. Muslim radicals have been killing Christians, burning down churches, and forcing Christians to flee their homes. Authorities in Nigeria have failed to stem this recurring violence. The report by the Commission expressed concern that "years of inaction by Nigeria's federal, state and local governments has created a climate of impunity, resulting in thousands of deaths." The report indicates the role of countries such as Libya, Saudi Arabia, and Sudan in fueling the violence by building mosques and Islamic religious schools in which an extreme version of Islam is preached. The report noted, "An increasing number of Nigerian Islamic scholars and clerics are being trained in Saudi Arabia and return with a politico-religious ideology that explicitly promotes hatred of, and violence against, non-Muslims." The Commission's conclusion is: "put simply, the Nigerian Government has permitted religious violence and other severe violations of the freedom of religion to occur with impunity." International Christian Concern has been calling for end to the impunity that radical Muslims possess in Nigeria. In our latest press release on Nigeria, ICC called for the establishment of an independent commission to investigate a recent attack in the northern state of Bauchi. We reiterate our call for the formation of an independent investigative body to examine the root causes of the violence in northern Nigerian, bring the perpetrators of religious attacks to justice, and create a national dialogue for reconciliation and peaceful existence between Christians and Muslims in Nigeria. ICC's Regional Manager for Africa and the Middle East, Jonathan Racho, said, "It behooves Nigeria to act aggressively to protect Christian minorities in the northern part of the country. It is high time for Nigeria to bring the perpetrators of religious violence to justice. The lack of political will to proactively protect Christians from persecution and prosecute the perpetrators of attacks against them could result in large scale violence and create a national security crisis."

Seven Days Says:
"Go Your Own Way," new paintings that use map as medium.
Jane Ann Kantor
When's the last time you looked at a real map? Not the interactive kind on your phone, but the kind you unfold and spread out on your lap in the passenger seat of the car. Vermont artist Jane Ann Kantor has found another use for these paper relics — in her art. "I am exploring the map as a medium, as a conceptual tool of abstract representation," she writes in a statement. "I often deconstruct maps to twist the otherwise obvious to convey a completely different sort of information to the viewer." Her work is up through October 31 at Dostie Bros. Frame Shop in Burlington in a show called "Go Your Own Way." Pictured: "Don't Question It."

Green Weenie of the Week: Peak Water
As noted here a few days ago, the beloved "peak oil" hypothesis has gone poof, but if you're an enviro-doomster, you've got to have peak-something to grab on to, because Malthus. Looks like the new peak obsession will be . . . water. Yes—the stuff that falls regularly from the sky, the bulk of which (99 percent of surface water probably) we allow to flow back into the ocean.

Question of the Day: Can Environmentalists Think?
No. Let's go home. But if you want an intelligent discussion of this question, check out Bret Stephens's column by this title in today's Wall Street Journal. I've grown weary of pointing out the defects of environmental moralism, and have been grateful for fresh reinforcement from folks like Pascal Bruckner (review forthcoming). But Stephens really nails it. If you don't have a WSJ subscription or print copy, here's a highlight: »
Environmental Fraud Alert
It is often said that politicians require a steady stream of crises from which they can purport to save us. In that dynamic, environmentalists have come to play an important role. Rachel Carson and Paul Ehrlich were among the pioneers, and the model they established hasn't changed much. Environmentalists issue hysterical warnings about disasters that threaten to overtake us, and the remedy is always the same: we must turn over »
Did Koontz Case Doom Obama's "Environmental Justice" Agenda?
One of the lesser-noted decisions that the Supreme Court handed down in its June term was Koontz v. St. Johns River Water Management District. Koontz applied for a permit to develop a portion of a small parcel of land that he owned in Florida, and offered a remediation plan to offset the effect of the development on wetlands on his property. The Water Management District rejected Koontz's plan and said »

Obama's war on America, cont'd

Eco-Remakes I'd Like to See
In getting ready to review Pascal Bruckner's terrific new beatdown on environmentalism, The Fanaticism of the Apocalypse, I was pondering his discussion about, of all things, Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho and my favorite camp-classic, Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, and I got to wondering—why don't we have some remakes of classic films within the horizons of today's environmental correctness? How would Psycho's famous shower scene go with a low-flow shower-head? Probably »

Whatever Happened To. . .

The Latest Keystone Caper
In my Weekly Standard article out a few days ago ("The Climate Circus Leaves Town"), I predicted: What [Obama] may do is tentatively approve Keystone along with a major policy shift that will please environmentalists and subject Keystone to further and perhaps fatal delays.

The end of liberal education — Part One, the Vassar experience

Epstein was invited to speak by Vassar's Moderate, Independent, Conservative Alliance (MICA). »
Why Are the Alarmists' Computer Models Wrong?
The case for global warming hysteria rests entirely on certain computer models that committed warmist partisans have been paid tens of billions of dollars by greedy governments to develop. It is hardly a shock, then, that these programs crank out one alarming scenario after another. They predict endless cataclysms resulting from an always-warming Earth, even as the actual Earth, not the computer-generated one, stubbornly refuses to heat up, year after »

ExifLib simply reads Exif tags (i.e., camera model, GPS data, date picture taken, shutter speed etc.) from JPEG files, without the overhead introduced by using the GDI+ classes located in System.Drawing.Imaging, and with less lines of code for the developer.
I've been using a simple command line application to move my photos into subdirectories based on the date on which they were created. As with all other .NET Exif implementations I've seen, I was using the PropertyItem class located in System.Drawing.Imaging. While this does the job, I often found myself processing thousands of images at a time, and the .NET classes were just too slow for the job. ExifLib goes back to the JPEG/TIFF standard itself, and only reads the essentials, using little more than the file input classes in System.IO.
ExifLib is very simple, with only one class and one enum in the namespace. Just add a reference to ExifLib.dll, and you're good to go! An example follows:
using ExifLib; ... ... ... // Instantiate the reader ExifReader reader = new ExifReader(@"C:\temp\testImage.jpg"); // Extract the tag data using the ExifTags enumeration DateTime datePictureTaken; if (reader.GetTagValue<DateTime>(ExifTags.DateTimeDigitized, out datePictureTaken)) { // Do whatever is required with the extracted information MessageBox.Show(this, string.Format("The picture was taken on {0}", datePictureTaken), "Image information", MessageBoxButtons.OK); }
Something strange that I learned while writing this library is that while JPEG stipulates "Big Endian" encoding (i.e., numbers read from left to right), the TIFF standard allows Big or Little Endian encoding. Since the Exif tags are encoded using TIFF encoding, often the JPEG will be read using "Big Endian" encoding until the TIFF section is reached, at which point the encoding reverses and the rest of the document is read using "Little Endian" encoding.
During coding, I realised from a comment on the ExifWorks CodeProject article that it's possible to increase performance when using System.Drawing.Image by setting the constructor's validateImageData parameter to false. However, even when using this enhancement, ExifLib still performs 50% faster, possibly because it does not read the tag values until they're requested. I have also noticed that ExifLib performs similarly with small (<1MP) images, but scales better when loading larger images. The screenshot at the top of this page was produced using a 12MP image.

ExifLib is now available on nuget! Simply install from the Visual Studio Package Manager Console using Install-Package ExifLib.

How do I apply/enroll in the International Engineering Program?
There are no special enrollment procedures in the early stages of the program. When applying to URI, simply indicate your choice of engineering major. If you are accepted for engineering, you are eligible for the IEP. When it comes time to register, you should enroll in the appropriate foreign language course for your first semester at URI, and follow the recommended outline of courses (see link to "Programs of Study" on the right or contact Dr. Echevarría.) Success in your coursework and commitment to the ideals of the program will ensure your place in the IEP.
For more information on admission to URI visit www.uri.edu/admission .
How can I afford the extra year?
There is no tuition charged for the one-semester professional internship spent abroad. Thus, your extra tuition will only be for one semester. If you study abroad through one of our exchanges the cost is equal to in-state tuition and fees, regardless of your residency status, plus two other study abroad fees that together currently total about $700. In most cases all financial and scholarships apply to the semester exchange.
If you qualify for a URI Centennial Scholarship, it will apply for the full five years, as long as you maintian a 3.0 GPA.
This means that, for the cost of one extra semester at the in-state tuition rate plus fees, you get an extra degree, a year abroad including six months of professional work experience, fluency in a foreign language and cross-cultural communication skills! When you add to this they fact that IEP students generally command higher salaries, the modest additional tuition cost is a sound investment!
What if I don't do well in my language class?
The first (and second) foriegn language course will satisfy a language/culture general education requirement. If the language doesn't agree with you, then you may simply revert to the regular engineering program with no lost time.
But doesn't the whole world speak English?
Though English has become a common language for multinational meetings, this does not mean that Americans don't need to have other languages and international expertise. Indeed, Americans are often handicapped by their inabilities and insensitivities regarding other languages and cultures. If we are to remain competitive as a nation, we need to be able to communicate accurately with our partners and competitors abroad.
Do I need a background in the language?
No. Any background does mean a head start, though.
Is the IEP for me?
If you are a motivated student with an interest in an engineering career with global opportunities, you will want to give this program serious consideration. You should have a reasonably strong interest in language and culture study to accompany your skills in math and science.
Here are twelve reasons why.

While the new estimate of oil released from flood-damaged tanks has grown to almost 35,000 gallons, officials believe it really is just a minute part of a much bigger problem.

Oil and gas releases, officials said, have been so small it's almost immaterial.

Pittsburgh, PA (Sports Network) - Steelers coach Mike Tomlin announced that quarterback Ben Roethlisberger will start Sunday's game against the San Diego Chargers.
Roethlisberger practiced for the second straight day on Thursday, and Tomlin is very comfortable with him returning to action following a three-game absence.
Roethlisberger suffered rib and shoulder injuries in a Week 10 home win against Kansas City.
Byron Leftwich replaced Roethlisberger the following week and finished the club's home loss to Baltimore despite suffering a rib fracture.
Veteran signal-caller Charlie Batch took over the reins in a Nov. 25 loss at Cleveland, then directed a fourth-quarter comeback this past Sunday at Baltimore.
