Story at a Glance
The District of Columbia Department of Transportation (DDOT) has installed new signage to mark five bike routes on the east side of the District.
Media Contacts
(Washington, DC) The District of Columbia Department of Transportation (DDOT) has installed new signage to mark five bike routes on the east side of the District. The five routes total over twenty miles in length and provide on-street linkages between the Metropolitan Branch Trail, the Marvin Gaye Trail, the Oxon Run Trail, the Anacostia River Trail System and the Anacostia Tributaries Trail System in Prince George's County, Maryland. The routes use a newly designed Bike Route sign and provide distance information to key destinations. Over the past few weeks, contractors have installed more than 750 sign plates at 255 locations to mark the new routes.
DDOT selected this set of routes to address requests for more bicycle facilities in Wards 7 and 8; to provide clear access to DC's emerging city-wide trail system; to improve access from East of the River to downtown jobs and resources; and to update old signed routes dating back to the 1970's.
For example, in Southwest and Near Southeast, the re-establishment of 4th Street between I and M Streets (Waterfront Metro) eliminated the need for signs directing bicyclists on a convoluted route through the neighborhood.
The new route (4.7 miles) links the Pennsylvania Avenue cycletrack to Nationals Park and Historic Anacostia using the Frederick Douglass Bridge. Special directions are provided to the valet bike parking location at Nationals Park and the signs clarify the access point to the new East Bank Anacostia Trail at Poplar Point. On the east side of the river the route begins/ends in Historic Anacostia at Good Hope Road and Martin Luther King, Jr. Avenue.
The Marvin Gaye Trail to Metropolitan Branch Trail (MBT) route (5.2 miles) links Woodson High School and neighborhoods along the Watts Branch to the Minnesota Avenue Metro Station. The route then continues west using a narrow sidewalk along the Benning Road bridge, one of the few bicycle-pedestrian crossings of DC Route 295 and the CSX Benning Yards. It passes through River Terrace and Kingman Park, links to the East and West Bank Trails along the Anacostia River and traverses the northeast neighborhoods on Capitol Hill. It uses bike lanes on C and D Streets, NE to reach Union Station where cyclists may choose to take the E Street bike lane to the heart of the city or the MBT to NOMA, Eckington or Brookland.
Also located east of the River, The Heights Bike Route (6.5 miles) links the Marvin Gaye Trail in Ward 7 with the Oxon Run Trail in Ward 8. The neighborhoods of Lincoln Heights, Marshall Heights, Benning Heights, Hillcrest, Garfield Heights and Congress Heights are all linked using Southern and Alabama Avenues, the only through route fully linking the two wards along the southeast edge of the City.
A route along Naylor Road (1.5 miles) links The Heights Bike Route to the East Bank Anacostia River Trail and Anacostia Park at Nicholson Street (near the Sousa Bridge). Signs guide cyclists to the bicycle/pedestrian access across the bridge on the down-river side, which is the best route for continuing on to Capitol Hill or Downtown.
An on-street connection between the MBT in Brookland and the Northwest Branch Trail near Mt. Rainier, Maryland is a brand new route (2.3 miles), designed to serve as an interim on-street route for the East Coast Greenway (ECG). Until the MBT trail system is completed along the Fort Circle and between Catholic University and Ft. Totten, this route will guide local cyclists around the base of Bunker Hill (better than going over the top). It will also welcome Maine to Florida cyclists who are following the East Coast Greenway, a city-to-city version of the Appalachian Trail. Combined with ECG signs installed along the National Mall in 2008, this will complete signing of the ECG route through the District of Columbia.
To meet the goals set forth in the 2005 Bicycle Master Plan, the District hopes to sign 10 miles of new bike routes every year through 2015. For more information about DDOT's Bicycle Program, please visit us online at ddot.dc.gov/bikes.

Configuring RAID-0 Arrays With Solid-State Drives — Intel ICH and PCH Controllers
By Mike Clements posted Aug 18th 2010
As a leading supplier of solid-state drives, such as the award winning Corsair® Force Series™ SSD's, Corsair would like to help you get the most out of your SSD-based system. In this brief how-to guide, we'd like to show you how to nearly double the performance of your SSD based disk subsystem by using RAID.
RAID is an acronym for Redundant Array of Independent Disks. We won't go into the many different types of RAID configurations here. The basic concept involves combining multiple storage drives in an array to gain performance, fault tolerance, or a blend of the two. One SSD is great, so two SSDs must be incredible, right? Right!
This article will focus on RAID-0, which is the most common RAID configuration utilized strictly for performance. Many enthusiast and desktop motherboards come equipped with onboard RAID controllers. These can be built into the chipset, such as the AMD south bridge, Intel® ICH / PCH controller hubs, or the NVIDIA® MCP. Some motherboard makers add a second RAID capable disk controller to the motherboard board to enable a second RAID array. Users can also add additional RAID functionality with a PCI or PCI-e RAID card.
Regardless of the controller used, the basic steps to set up a RAID array in the BIOS and configure the controller are very similar across these different brands and different implementations of controllers.
Each motherboard BIOS and RAID configuration utility will vary slightly so familiarizing yourself with the motherboard manual and the BIOS layout is always a good start. You may also want to familiarize yourself with basic RAID terminology as that will be helpful when navigating the RAID setup utilities. Once you have done that, you'll need to find the section of your BIOS that allows you to set up the disk controller modes.
Setting up RAID-0 on boards with Intel ICH and PCH controllers is fairly straightforward, as the steps are largely the same regardless of chip set version. The Intel ICH set up has been essentially the same for quite some time across their ICH7, ICH8, ICH9, and currently the ICH10-R controllers. The newer PCH set up is the same. Our example here shows the ICH10-R as implemented with the X58 chipset.
Setting Up a RAID-0 Array Using the Intel ICH10-R Controller
The EVGA® Classified motherboard in our example uses a Pheonix Technologies® AwardBIOS™ in tandem with the Intel ICH10-R disk controller. Other brands of BIOS will appear different but the basic steps are the same. Enter your BIOS and view the Standard CMOS Features page. We are using two Corsair Performance Series™ P128 SSDs in the example. NOTE: to configure RAID-0 you will want to use two identical drives of the same size.
In the BIOS screen below, you will see any drives attached to the ICH10-R. Once you enable the ICH10-R RAID mode, your drives will no longer show up on this page. This is normal.
Standard CMOS Features
Integrated Peripherals
Go back to the BIOS main screen and select the Integrated Peripherals section.
Onboard PATA/SATA Device
Select the Onboard PATA/SATA Device, which is the Intel ICH10-R controller.
Select RAID Mode
Now you'll need to specify the SATA mode wanted. Once this step is finished, save your changes and exit the BIOS. It's time to move on to using the Intel RAID configuration utility to create the RAID array.
After rebooting, the BIOS will prompt you to press CTRL-I to enter the RAID Configuration Utility.
Create a RAID Volume
This will bring you to the main menu. Select option 1 to create a RAID Volume.
Name the Volume
The first step is to name the volume followed by selecting the RAID level or type. Assign a name here and select "RAID0(Stripe)".
Select the Drives
When you select the third option, you'll be prompted to use the Space bar to select drives for the RAID array. Once you assign the drives, press Enter.
Select Stripe Size and Capacity
After you select the drives, you'll need to select the Stripe Size and Capacity. Note that Intel has provided typical stripe size values in the Help section.
Create Volume
After assigning stripe size and capacity, select the "Create Volume" option.
All Data Will Be Erased
And, this is the moment of truth. At this point you are asked if you are sure that you want to create this volume. All data on the selected disks will be lost.
Completed RAID-0 Array in Intel ICH10-R
At this point, your RAID-0 array is completed. The status of the array is indicated here.
ATTO Single Drive Performance Series P128 vs ATTO Two P128s in RAID-0
Be prepared for some astonishing drive performance. We tested this particular array with ATTO which is the most reliable tool to date for HD performance. The graph on the left is a single drive and the right side shows the performance of these two drives in RAID-0.
Reset RAID Data
In the event that you need to remove these disks from the RAID-0 array, be sure to use the Intel RAID utility and reset the RAID data.
In a recent SSD tech article from Anandtech, we found the following statement. "For the past several months I've been calling SSDs the single most noticeable upgrade you can do to your computer. Whether desktop or laptop, stick a good SSD in there and you'll notice the difference." As you configure your SSD RAID, you will not just "notice" the upgrade — it will blow you away! The performance gain over old rotational drives is simply astonishing, and eliminates a long standing system performance bottleneck. So, raid your nearest retailer and get into the RAID-0 business with Corsair SSDs!

Dan Marino is famous for his touchdowns but the Hall of Famers scoring off the field is downright shocking.
The married gridiron great a pregame analyst for CBS since 2003 who will be doing this Sundays Super Bowl broadcast sired a love child with a network underling and then paid her millions to keep quiet, sources have exclusively told The Post.
The ex-Miami Dolphin QB who has long had an image as one of pro sports most squeaky-clean guys knocked up Donna Savattere, a then-35-year-old production assistant at CBS Sports Manhattan studio.
Adriel Reboh/Patrick McMullan.comCUTIE: Donna Savattere with Chloe, her daughter from an affair with NFL great Dan Marino.
She gave birth to their daughter, Chloe, in June 2005.
They had an affair, and she had a baby, said a source. Everything was on the down-low and secretive.
News of the affair and child comes as Marino is set to work Sundays big Super Bowl Today telecast.
He and other former NFL greats, such as Boomer Esiason and Shannon Sharpe, will jaw about the big game for hours before the 6:30 p.m. kickoff between the Baltimore Ravens and San Francisco 49ers. The revelation could make for some awkward moments during the long broadcast, which starts at 2 p.m.
CBS said in a statement today, "Dan has said all there is to say on this matter, and will be in his usual role on our broadcast Super Bowl Sunday."
Marino yesterday admitted to his dalliance.
This is a personal and private matter. I take full responsibility both personally and financially for my actions now as I did then, he told The Post in a written statement. We mutually agreed to keep our arrangement private to protect all parties involved.

The Midwest Care Alliance: Your source for home, hospice & palliative care
Midwest Care Alliance (MCA), a non-profit organization, was chartered in 1979 in response to the need to promote hospice care and to support the growth and development of provider programs through education, advocacy and technical information.
Originally known as the Ohio Hospice Organization, its name was changed in 1999 to Ohio Hospice & Palliative Care Organization (OHPCO) in order to promote the development of palliative care programs. In December 2006, the OHPCO Board of Directors approved the development of a home care division (Ohio Home Care Organization) within the organization to begin providing similar services to Home Care agencies.
In 2010, the Organization's name was changed to Midwest Care Alliance (MCA) in order to better reflect the vision and evolving role as a leader and educator in the home, hospice and palliative care arena. Today, the organization is chartered as a 501(c)(6) membership organization.
The organization is committed to advancing excellence in home, hospice and palliative care in Ohio. Our focus can be seen through our philosophy of, "It's All About CARE!" CARE, for us, provides Consultative services, Advocacy Efforts, Resources and Educational offerings to our members and the community.
Additionally, MCA provides education and guidance for health care planning by distributing advance care planning materials through two booklets known as Conversations that Light the Way and Choices: Living Well at the End-of-Life. These documents include valuable information on Living Will Declarations, Health Care Power of Attorney Forms, Organ Donation Forms and Do Not Resuscitate Information. They are available for download on the Midwest Care Alliance website.
MCA's affiliate, the Midwest Center for Home, Hospice & Palliative Care Education, is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization which receives its funding through a variety of resources, including educational programming, grant funding, donations and charitable workplace campaigns.

Turn the handle and, through the magic of the flexible drive shaft, the hapless tortoise spins on her shell. Think of her as a break dancing turtle if you prefer to think happy thoughts.
Members can download the parts for free at the link. Non members can buy the parts for for £2.50. Have fun!
There are three parts sheets for this project. Print out either the colour or mono sheets as you choose. Note that the last colour sheet has colour printed on both sides. Print out one side, flip the paper over and return it to the printer to print out the other side on the back.
Print the parts onto thin card. (230 micron / 67 lb) Score the dotted lines and cut out the holes before carefully cutting out the pieces.
Fit the box strengtheners inside the box, use the picture in the next frame to help show where the box stiffener goes. It should be near the hole but not touching it.
Complete the box as shown
Repeat the process with the box top. The dotted line on the picture shows where the box stiffener sits. Notice that this part has a recessed area.
Fit the base to the box. Stand the box on a flat surface and make sure that the parts are at right angles to each other before the glue dries.
Assemble the two drive shaft ends in the same way. Glue a washer into place as shown. Glue two of the zig zag pieces to adjacent faces on the drive shaft as shown.
Assemble the cuboid that is the drive shaft joiner.
Fold the zig zag pieces over each other alternately so that each piece is folded four times.
Fold up the ends of the zig zag pieces at ninety degrees and trim them off to approx. one centimeter long.
Glue the ends to the drive shaft centre piece.
Repeat the process with the other drive shaft to make this three section flexible drive.
Fit the shaft marked 'Horizontal' into the main body of the box as shown. Fit a second washer to hold it into place.
Repeat the process with the other end of the shaft.
Glue the top of the box into place, make sure that it is square before the glue dries.
Assemble the handle in three steps.
Fold up and glue together the two box sections.
Glue one box section into the other at ninety degrees.
Roll round the long tab and glue it down.
Glue the handle into place on the box. You now have a completed mechanism which you could use as the starting point for your own projects. A spinning helicopter, a dancing couple a break dancing dude...
Carry on from here to add the spinning tortoise.
Assemble the two parts of the shell.
Fold up the legs and glue them at an angle using the grey area as a guide.
Glue the four legs into the body.
Assemble the head and the neck parts.
Glue the head to the neck.
Fit the head and tail into the body and glue them down. A chop stick is a useful aid in this job.
The completed tortoise. Wrong way up.
Complete the model by fitting the tortoise to the box. Turn the handle and watch her spin!

Ah, I see that Rob subscribes to the "Steve Jobs" school of thinking.
The top plate of the shell, even thought it is not seen, still has the patterning on it.
Hi rob would it be possibledosen't move that was inside the shell so when it went round the head legs and tail went up and down
to have the head legs and tail moveable and something stuck to the top of the stand so itthis mechanism is great i see lots of possible uses for it.you could use it to power a turntable and that could be used to make even more models.i just finished making it using the turtle but next i think i will connect a pose able t-rex to the mechanism and then have a dancing t-rex
Hello Rob,
In turning turtle, the head and the neck parts have a missing score line each.

BATON ROUGE—The Louisiana Farm Bureau Radio Network is merging its farm broadcasting operations with the Louisiana Radio Network's Agri-News division, creating one of the largest farm radio networks in the South.
The Louisiana Farm Bureau Agri-News Radio Network will have a combined 42 affiliates in Louisiana and Mississippi. LRN President Jim Engster said the merger, which takes effect Aug. 6., represents the largest consolidation of Louisiana stations that carry farm news.
"Over the years we've worked closely with the Farm Bureau to provide our listeners with timely and accurate farm news and commodity prices," Engster said. "This merger gives us both an opportunity to improve our farm news presence across the state."
LRN launched the Louisiana Agri-News Network in 1976, offering several daily agriculture reports for the state's farmers and produced in cooperation with the Farm Bureau. In 1998 the Farm Bureau began the Louisiana Farm Bureau Radio Network with 22 affiliates statewide.
In 2008 both organizations began sharing farm news and commodities prices. Ronnie Anderson, president of the Louisiana Farm Bureau, said merging the networks represents the next logical step.
"This is an opportunity for us to increase public awareness of the important role farmers and ranchers play in our daily lives," Anderson said. "It's also a chance to showcase the economic impact that farming has on our state while keeping residents updated on things going on in their communities."
Neil Melancon, general manager of the Farm Bureau network, will share broadcasting duties with Don Molino, LRN's farm director since 1987.
"We'll each have the ability to get out into the field more often, bringing our listeners a wider range of stories than ever before," Molino said. "For our affiliates, it means more concise broadcasts and greater local revenue-generating potential."
The Louisiana Farm Bureau Agri-News Radio Network will host a companion website with podcasts of its daily radio reports as well as "The Bottom Line," Melancon's segment that airs on the Farm Bureau's weekly TV show, "This Week in Louisiana Agriculture." The site, www.LFBARN.com, will launch the week of Aug. 13.
Founded in 1974, Louisiana Radio Network provides 71 radio stations throughout Louisiana and parts of Mississippi with news, sports and agri-news. LRN also publishes Tiger Rag, "The Bible of LSU Sports," since 1978, and presents the annual Louisiana Farmer of the Year award.
The Louisiana Farm Bureau Federation, founded in 1922, is the state's largest general farm and ranch organization.

Fix git-svn in OS X Mavericks
Posted November 7th, 2013 in OSX
I use Atlassian's SourceTree app on OS X for working with git, and occasionally subversion when a customer uses it. After upgrading to 10.9 Mavericks, git-svn didn't work any more.
Create a bootable OS X Mavericks USB installer
Posted October 24th, 2013 in OSX
OS X 10.9 Mavericks has just been released and it's trivially easy to upgrade your system. But what if you want to do a fresh install to start fresh without all the cruft you've accumulated over the years?
Copy OS X Mavericks installer to prevent multiple downloads
Posted October 23rd, 2013 in OSX
Apple's OS X Mavericks upgrade is available today from the App Store for free, and weighs in at 5.3GB. After downloading it via the App Store it's possible to make a copy of the installer so you don't need to download it again for each Mac.
How to clear the DNS cache on Mac OSX
Posted February 19th, 2013 in OSX
DNS lookups are cached so that subsequent lookups for the same host don't require querying an external DNS server again until the TTL expires. Sometimes you need to clear the cache, for example if you've changed a DNS record, and this post shows how to do it on Mac OSX.
How to disable spotlight indexing on Mac OSX
Posted October 4th, 2011 in OSX (Updated February 5th, 2013)
Spotlight is a useful Mac app for launching apps, finding files and other stuff on your computer, and a whole bunch of other nifty little things. Since upgrading to Lion I've been finding it doing some serious CPU hogging for long periods of time while it updates its index, and because I use very few of the features I decided to switch Spotlight's indexing off.
Hide the Spotlight Menu Icon in Mac OS X
Posted February 5th, 2013 in OSX
In the past I've looked at how to disable Spotlight indexing on Mac OSX, but that still leaves the (now unnecessary) Spotlight icon in the menu icon area. This post shows how to hide the Spotlight icon from the menu area on Mac OSX.
Failed to add the host to the list of known hosts
Posted November 13th, 2012 in Linux/Unix/BSD and OSX
I recently reinstalled the operating system on my MacBookPro and discovered when trying to SSH into a new server for the first time I was getting the error "Failed to add the host to the list of known hosts (/Users/chris/.ssh/known_hosts)." This post shows what I needed to do to fix them problem.
Remap quit and close tab shortcut keys etc in Mac OS X
Posted November 6th, 2012 in OSX
I'm the king of hitting random shortcut key combinations and doing unexpected things and often accidentally close a tab or the entire window in Google Chrome while editing some content on one of my websites. Which means having to go back and re-write that content... I'd have enough of that so decided to work out how to remap the Cmd+Q and Cmd+W keys so I could no longer accidentally shut down a tab or window when really meaning to copy n paste or select all (or some other well meaning shortcut).
Join video files together on Mac with cat and mencoder
Posted October 25th, 2012 in OSX
I have a whole bunch of short avi files (not sure what format they actually are, but the extension is .avi) and needed to join them together quickly and easily so the 3 year old could watch some TV without bothering me every 5 minutes to start the next one :) This post shows how to do this from the command line with the cat and mencoder commands
Change Mac OS X DNS servers from the command line
Posted June 5th, 2012 in OSX (Updated August 2nd, 2012)
I frequently need to change the DNS servers I use on my Mac and it can be quite a convoluted process to switch them around using the GUI settings. This post shows how quickly you can change between DNS server settings from the command line using terminal.
iOS Simulator and Xcode 4.3
Posted April 26th, 2012 in Applications and OSX
I installed/upgrade Xcode on my Mac Lion to 4.3 and couldn't work out where the iOS Simulator was. It turns out you have to manually configure Xcode to install the simulator but even then there's no obvious way to run the iOS Simulator. This post shows how I did it.

When you take screenshots on Mac OS X there's a shadow around the screenshot by default. This post shows how to disable the shadow from the screenshot and how to subsequently restore the shadow.
"Error opening terminal xterm-color" on Mac OSX Terminal

If you are connecting to a remote server from the Mac OS X terminal and get the message "Error opening terminal: xterm-color" when doing certain operations on the remote server, then you either change your terminal's declaration setting or add a TERM declaration to the bash profile on the server at the other end to prevent the error message from happening. There may be other ways to solve it at the server end but this post shows a quick and easy fix.
Using purge to free inactive memory on Mac OS X
Posted November 17th, 2010 in OSX (Updated January 19th, 2012)
Apple Mac OS X is generally good at memory management but I sometimes find the inactive memory takes a long time to be released as free memory and my system can grind to a bit of a halt if I need to start up a virtual machine. This post shows how to use the purge command to free up the inactive memory.
Free inactive memory on Mac with FreeMemory
Posted January 19th, 2012 in OSX
I've posted in the past about using the "purge" command line utility on Mac OSX to free up inactive memory but a recent update appears to have broken the tool from working. An alternative is to use the FreeMemory app from the App Store to do the same thing, but more easily.
How to uninstall Parallels 6 on a Mac
Posted September 20th, 2011 in OSX
The Parallels Knowledge Base has information about how to uninstall several version of Parallels (3, 4, 5) but not version 6. I managed to work out how to uninstall Parallels 6 on my Mac and this short post covers how to do it.
Purge all Google Chrome user data on a Mac
Posted August 24th, 2011 in Applications and OSX
In Google Chrome you can easily purge browsing data including cookies, history, etc using the application preferences. But there are still a bunch of files that it doesn't touch. I was having some weird issues with my SilverStripe installs (I won't go into that here) which didn't happen when using incognito mode but did under normal browsing. Deleting all browsing data made no difference so I needed to really poke under the hood to delete all data.
Remove input shadows on iOS devices
Posted July 28th, 2011 in OSX
One thing I've found annoying with the mobile Safari browser on iOS is the shadows that appear at the top of input boxes. It's not normally too much of an issue unless you are doing fancy styling and then they can make it really messy and ugly. Fortunately David Walsh has provided a solution. I won't repeat the solution but do post some screenshots here showing the issue and how much better it can look after applying his fix.
How to copy the OSX Lion installer to prevent multiple downloads
Posted July 25th, 2011 in OSX
Apple's OSX Lion upgrade is available from the App store as an almost 4GB download, and a single purchase can update all your computers running Snow Leopard. My concern was that I didn't want to have to download it twice for each Mac I have, but fortunately it's very easy to make a copy after the download has completed and before the install starts.
How to see how long an app store app will take to download
Posted July 25th, 2011 in OSX

Restore 3 finger swipe between pages in Google Chrome on Mac OSX Lion
Posted July 25th, 2011 in OSX
The default gesture in Mac OSX Lion to swipe between pages is to use 2 fingers which, unfortunately at the time of writing this post, this doesn't do anything in a number of apps including Google Chrome, Path Finder, and even Apple's Finder. Chrome and Path Finder previously used 3 fingers and fortunately Lion makes it easy to configure the gestures so they can again.
No seq on Mac OS X - use jot instead
Posted November 25th, 2010 in OSX
I'm used to using the seq command line tool on Linux for generating a sequence of numbers (which is useful if you need to download a bunch of files with wget which have consecutive numbering in the filename). I went to use it on OSX but there's no seq. A quick Google and I learned there's "jot" instead.

Prevent Parallels creating Windows application folders in the Dock
Posted August 13th, 2010 in OSX
When Parallels starts a Windows Virtual Machine it creates a folder in the dock containing Windows Applications. I run my Parallels Virtual Machines in windowed mode so prefer these folders not to be created at all. This post shows how to prevent Parallels from creating the Windows Applications folder in the dock on Mac OS X.
Mac OSX Apps I use
Posted July 13th, 2010 in OSX
I switched from Windows to Mac OSX just over a month ago after buying a MacMini so I can test websites using the iPhone/iPad simulator (see related posts links at the end of this post for more details about my 30 day OSX challenge). This post looks at the apps that I'm using compared with what I was using before on Windows.
32 days of OSX
Posted July 12th, 2010 in OSX
32 days ago I began my "30 day OSX challenge" after buying a MacMini so I could use the iPhone and iPad simulators, as well as for once being able to test websites on a Mac. I had decided that because I'd bought this shiny new box I should really give OSX a go and have used it as my main computer since then.

Fix "the operation can't be completed because you don't have permission to access some of the items" error on OSX
Posted June 20th, 2010 in OSX and Quick Tips
I run my webserver and file server from a virtual machine with the files shared using Samba (yes, now that I'm running on OSX I should really share the files with NFS but that's for another day). When trying to copy files from the Mac to the Samba share I was getting the error message "The operation can't be completed because you don't have permission to access some of the items".
OSX Quick Tip: Show all files in the Finder including dot files

The 30 day OSX challenge begins
Posted June 11th, 2010 in OSX
I posted a couple of days ago that I was going to buy a Mac Mini and do a "30 day OSX Challenge". After buying it that same day and spending the last couple of days setting up all the software I need, I switched off my Windows 7 desktop PC last night and don't intend switching it on again for (at least) 30 days.
The 30 day OSX challenge
Posted June 9th, 2010 in OSX
With the rise in popularity of iPhone and iPad devices, and the rebuild we are shortly going to do with the Personalised Plates website, I have come to the conclusion that I need a Mac to be able to test for iPhone/iPad using the simulator which comes with the iPhone SDK. I currently use Windows 7 and the simulator/SDK is Mac only. So time to take the plunge and get a Mac.

Ever wonder how musicians manage to play in unison? Credit their brain waves: they synchronize before and while musicians play a composition, according to new research.
German scientists report in BMC Neuroscience that they measured the brain waves of eight pairs of guitarists using electroencephalography (EEG) while they played a modern jazz piece called "Fusion #1" (by Alexander Buck). The researchers found that the guitarists' brain waves were aligned most during three pivotal times: when they were syncing up with a metronome, when they began playing the piece and at points during the composition that demanded the most synchrony.
The synchrony was most prominent in the frontal and central parts of the brain that regulate motor function. "Whenever synchrony of behavior was high, synchrony of brain waves were also high," Ulman Lindenberger, a director the Max Planck Institute for Human Development in Berlin, tells ScientificAmerican.com. But, "we can't assign a causal role to that synchronizing."
While brain synchrony during a duet seems like a given, it's a mystery how it happens, says Lindenberger, a psychologist. "One could speculate that this may be related to mirror neurons, the capacity of primates and humans to imagine the action of the other person while performing actions yourself," he says. "The mirror neuron system could be active during synchronized guitar playing."
Lindenberger says that inter-brain synchrony may also help explain humans' ability to engage in a host of other activities and behaviors that involve couples or teams, such as dancing, boxing, tennis and mother–child bonding. "People have an extraordinary capacity to synchronize their actions," he says. "When two people concentrate on the same thing, gestures and head movements are highly coordinated and supported by brain synchronicity. We think what we are getting through music has wider implications and social bonding behaviors are part of those wider implications."

This seems to me like putting the cart in front of the horse.
The musicians brainwaves are synchronized during pivotal times NOT because of other musicians brain waves influence. Throughout the aforementioned critical moments the musicians sync to the tempo, rhythm and the pulsation (that is the style) of the piece they are playing. Correspondingly their "brain waves" adjust to the same "metronome" - the combination of tempo, rhythm and feeling and thus appear in sync on the EEG.
This is my personal opinion, but nevertheless based on my 25+ years as a piano player (last 15 of them performing jazz compositions - both solo and in different formations)
I agree with Nirel that there is an externally-based synchronicity that predominates in much of the musical experience, but there is also the ability of the participants to adjust to each other in the process of performance; I would agree that the reason there is synchronicity is that the players agree on that external concept. It doesn't seem a mystery to me at all that we would behave in a unified manner because we musicians are all responding to an agreed-upon concept of what the music requires. What I find interesting is that individuals' respective personalities play a role in this contingent on the musical context.
I am more often than not an accompanist, so I get to witness this firsthand. Chorally, we all subordinate to the conductor, so I have to override the inclinations of the choir to speed up on 16th note passages or lag behind in the soft sections in order to synch with the baton. When I accompany a soloist (depending on the individual's proficiency) I either adapt to his/her tempo, etc., or influence it. In a small band setting, it is more give-and-take though there is usually a predominant personality who establishes the parameters (or assigns that duty, like the drummer being assigned to set and keep a steady tempo--ever tried to play with a drummer who can't keep the beat? YIKES!!!!) So sometimes is it not the metronome that dictates synchronicity as much as whoever is the most, well, assertive in controlling such matters. All that to say--just because there is brainwave synchronicity doesn't mean that there is any causative or correlative factor neurologically as much as just the agreement on the parts of the participants to behave in a unified manner; that connotes an understanding of music concepts in general and the musical composition in particular.
Sorry, it's Kirel, not Nirel. Also, the research is interesting--I'm glad to see the interest in learning more about the physiology and other neurological processes of music. Thanks!
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisProbably there is an element of feedback - the capacity for synchronicity coupled with external triggers, like the baton or metronome. The capacity for synchronicity keeps players in sync longer than the external trigger alone would, but the trigger helps establish the initial connection.
Singing in choirs, I've experienced some amazing synchronicity, particularly in improvisational singing - where 40 plus people, singing 4 or more parts are improvising together around a known melody and text - and weaving harmonies in sync with each other, not only within each part, but across the whole, on the fly, with few if any sour notes.
we all believe the sky is blue, not only in guitaritsts metronomical measurements, but in the slowing and accents of the played piece, the flow of the musicians, the contrbution to the feelings being communicated
music is it's own animal
musicians, just zoo keepers
I see that they have found out that musicians brain waves are in sync with each other it makes a lot of sense, but i doubt that there brains are communicating or psychically connected, through these "mirror neurons". I would assume that all activities people do together cause there brains to become in sync. However, more prevalent in music due to the amount of senses used to play the music, all the same neurons are firing. The two musicians are using their visual nerves to read the same pattern of notes. They are using their auditory nerves to hear the same amount of vibrations in the air. They are both stroking the same strings at the same time, using the same nerve endings in each finger. NO WONDER THEIR BRAIN PATTERNS ARE IN SYNC!!
I would hypothesize that if you put an EEG machine on all the slaves in one of those viking long ships while the drummer beats the drum for them to row, their brains would synchronize, just like I'm sure if you tortured two people the same exact way at the same time while playing the same sound their brains would be in sync too!!! Yesterday i ran a mile with my friend Eric and while keeping up with him i noticed my breath began to become in sync with his breathing pattern. As i continued to run with him i tried to obstruct this breathing pattern but i could not our breathing continued to be in sync from that point on until the mile was over unless one of us slowed down. I'm sure that if you hooked us up to an EEG machine at that moment our brain patterns would have been similar but probably not in sync due to the lack of senses we were using. Neither of us were listening to the same music or focusing on the same point on the track in front of us.
There are still some interesting questions, even assuming each individual musicial synchronizes to one leader (metronome, drummer, dominant musician, etc).
Q: If an individual musician plays out-of-sync consciously, will his brainwaves be out-of-sync?
Q: In the example above, If his brainwaves are out-of-sync, does this suggest he controls his brainwaves?
Q: If an individual musician plays out-of-sync unconsciosly (e.g., the drummer who can't keep time), are his brainwaves out-of-sync?
The mirror neurons do not communicate with each other, but instead they fire in response to the actions of another. When I am playing a piece of music with someone else, I try to have the entire song in my head at that point in time (or as much as I can, some songs get incredibly complicated). If everyone in a group was attempting to imagine the same piece of music while it was playing (especially if members were trying to mimic others in some way) then the brain waves should be the same. Basically that was a long way of saying that if people are working together to create something melodious, then it would be natural for their brains to be working similarly.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisI think it's probably biological and induced by pheromones and hormones. The rewards being great, and the brain-patterns created by this. This observation is prompted by the known tendency of women in close proximity for a fair old time to synch their menstrual cycles. If they can do it, others can in other areas. Behaviour is infectious in all sorts of ways, for both good and bad (ie it's infectious, maybe even addictive, regardless of whether the sign attached to it is plus or minus).
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisIt seems likely to me that musicians pick up on visual and auditory clues from one another. Mirror neurons may play a part in this. It is certainly easier to keep in time in a small group, or if in an orchestra if you can see the conductor easily. I wonder how people cope in recording studios when they are in a different environment and are only hearing a backing track for example thru headphones. What about those pieces of music where one person plays all the tracks layered together? Similarly it is easier to stay in tune when singing or playing if those around you are in tune, some people find this easier than others. I know some musicians who tap their feet and others who sway in time and yet others who find this behaviour most distracting and irritating. In general however we communicate better when we mirror the posture and actions of the people we are communicating with and perhaps music is a special case of this.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisI would assume when musicians are synchronized by their brain waves, they are also in "groove". Anybody who has experienced that know how it feels totally different from not being in groove.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisI agree that there seems to be little reason to speculate on some kind of specific physiological mechanism underlying inter-person synchronicity (e.g. mirror neurons which respond to another person's musical activities). It would appear to be perfectly parsimonious to presume that if two individuals can separately produce music at a given beat then they should also be able to produce a harmonious melody without any additional mental hardware.
But hey, what do I know>
I'm not sure why this nearly 2 year old 'News Blog' is being reposted, but the earlier commentators raise much the same issues that came to me: the is no control here to determine what EEG monitored activity results from a 'mirror neuron system' rather than simply the product of purposeful, intentionally coincidental intellectual and physical activity.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisthe role of "mirror neurons" is for us to be able to predict the actions of others by modeling (mirroring) the external world. in so doing, we can become in sync to each other even after an initial (metronome) and external stimulus has stopped. this is so because, now, we are anticipating the actions of others and we can duplicate this using our mental model.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisI'm a language teacher. If / when language is music, rather than noise, my students and myself are in sync and in perfect harmony.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisAnother aspect of time synchronisation I've often wondered about is that when running with someone else. People automatically run at the same pace without any conscious effort (assuming similar physical abilities). You would expect some effort to be necessary to keep the same pace but evolution has built in a mechanism. I wonder if it's the same one as this.

I'm Diana out -- -- -- is not on foxnews.com.
Michael Moore is no stranger to controversy and the in the air Mars up to his old tricks.
The filmmaker caused quite a start with his 2013 New Year's resolution to quote stop saying I support the -- I doubt I used -- He thought of saying that anyone who joins the military should know they are joining a rogue institution.
One may think that publicity is good publicity bubble and economic ties to the military support his movies when he sat he doesn't support -- I would highly doubt that military members -- he has reason.
I think -- disgusted I think that they.
Have made a commitment to this country and whether there on the front line or not it is a selfless.
Situation for them they are out there working on behalf of all those citizens who don't put on -- uniform and don't.
Work to defend the national security of this country that allows.
Michael Moore and everyone else to carry on with their lives and make money and hopefully move forward in their -- Jack -- event coordinator for the nonprofit organization writes recovery feels more can say what he wants.
After all the chips defendant Terry Frieden the director is exercising.
Personally to me it doesn't matter if he issues an apology and now he has the right to say when he wants that's what the people that I that I know.
The troops that I know.
That's what they want to were forced to protect freedoms like that.
However Mike Baker finds it strange that more has chosen to target the troops and has made unwarranted attacks against the military.
It's just a very odd very unfortunate comment.
To make directed against people who only deserve our respect the people that I know people I associated with some are still in the military -- -- -- They.
Support his right to an incident free speech and that's what they went to war for that's what their blood sweat and tears one and into the wars that they fought.
Baker on the other hand does not leave the troops or their -- spot to be disparaged by the likes of -- I think again the vast majority.
Of the military and their spouses and their families and their supporters.
Are going to be disgusted -- this government.

Next Stop Bangladesh As We Follow Planet Money's T-Shirt
Bangladesh is the cheapest place in the world to make a T-shirt. But this week, the minimum wage there was raised from $39 a month to $68 a month. That's got some factory owners nervous about whether Western retailers there will pull out. Our Planet Money team examines the future of the garment industry in Bangladesh.
White House Revs Up Delayed Push For Health Coverage
With HealthCare.gov able to handle an increasing number of users, the Obama administration finally went on the offensive to urge Americans to sign up for new health insurance. The administration had planned a massive advertising and social media campaign to support the Affordable Care Act back in October, but the push was delayed for two months after the health insurance exchange website failed in its debut. The effort comes as the deadline for people to sign up for coverage starting next year looms.

Ukrainian President Withstands No-Confidence Vote Amid Protests
Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovich survived a no-confidence vote in parliament Tuesday as the opposition failed to muster a majority to pass the measure. The opposition, and thousands of protesters now gathered in downtown Kiev, are demanding Yanukovitch's resignation because he refused to sign political and trade agreements with the European Union. Ukraine, a former Soviet republic, has been under intense pressure from Moscow to reject membership in the EU and to embrace closer trade ties with Russia and other countries that formerly belonged to the Soviet Union. The protesters in Kiev have vowed to continue their siege of government buildings.
Televangelist Paul Crouch, Who Started Trinity Network, Dies

The Pentecostal minister's broadcasting network came to be the world's largest Christian television system with Praise-a-Thon fundraising efforts that brought in as much as $90 million a year in mostly small donations.
Ready — Or Not. Sudden Climate Changes Worry Scientists Most
To forecast sudden global catastrophe – and, perhaps, head it off – we need more detailed monitoring of polar melting and of the ocean's temperature near ice sheets, leading climate watchers warn. Meanwhile, the primary global measuring network has been cut by 30 percent.

Eye gaze is critically important to humans, as social primates. Maybe that's why illusions involving eyes are so compelling.
August 26, 2008 | 7
Just curious, but what if the photo had included cleavage ?
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisI allegedly have "Asperger's syndrome," an autism-like mental state. Anyhow, I was unable to see all your eye-based optical illusions, or if I did they were very weak and unimpressive. But I have no trouble being impressed by all kinds of other interesting optical illusions elsewhere.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisI took a picture of this hybrid image on my iphone. The camera roll or the thumb nail images show marilyn monroe whereas when you make the image bigger it turns up as Einstein. I guess that is another way to see this illusion.
Because of limited space in my computer room, I'm unable to step far enough away from the image to create the illusion. However, I've got a plugin for firefox that allows me to resize images and as vinod pointed out, resizing the image has the same effect as changing your distance from it. This is likely due to the fact that the detail is lost when the images is shrunk and only the course detail remains.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisI found I had to take off my eyeglasses (for myopia) in order to see the illusions without having to back out of the room. They are fantastic when I am not wearing my corrective lenses.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisthe presentation should be in pps formate.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisMany web browsers (like Firefox that I am using now but also I.E. & Chrome...) have a zoom function (often the scroll wheel, sometimes with Ctrl pressed) Which allow you to sit comfortably in front of your screen while you zoom the illusion images in and out - who wants to have to gt up out of their chairs anyway!

The classic guide to forms of address for more than a quarter of a century
More information...The Queen's unique sense of style is instantly recognisable, and admired, the world over.
The classic guide to forms of address for more than a quarter of a century
More information...The Queen's signature style has evolved over the decades and is instantly recognisable. She favours blocks of strong colour; her flamboyant fuchsias, vibrant purples, daffodil yellows and jewel-like jades and turquoises ensure that she is instantly recognisable in a crowd.
The Queen's accessories are iconic; her exquisitely detailed hats always match her clothes, her boxy handbag is a timeless design, and her jewellery - from the three strands of pearls she favours, to her huge range of diamond brooches, is carefully selected.
Above all, the Queen never loses sight of the fact she is a human symbol. Her clothes are chosen to convey a number of messages - respect for her hosts, visual impact for her crowds, acknowledgment of national sovereignty and customs.
The Queen's silk headscarves, boxy handbags and leather gloves have all become iconic.
