Even though Shain Gandee was a reality TV star, he didn't leave his family much money -- not even enough for his funeral.
So in true Buckwild fashion, his cousin Ashley Gandee is organizing a memorial "Mud Run" -- an off-road trucking event. There will be a $10 charge to participate, and the Gandee General Store in Ohio will also be taking donations.
Reality stars generally don't bank big coin until after their shows become hits. TMZ speculates that Shain was probably pulling in a couple thousand dollars per episode.

On July 1, 2013, Medicare Part B will implement a national mail-order competitive bidding program specifically for diabetic testing supplies. Beficiaries in traditional Medicare will purchase diabetic testing supplies using a mail order option or a non-mail order option.
The Centers for Medicare Advocacy issued an Alert on the coming change Thursday afternoon.
Equipment such as blood glucose test strips, lancet devices, lancet, and glucose control solutions for checking the accuracy of testing equipment and test strips and other Medicare Part B covered diabetic testing supplies are included in the national mail-order program.
However, Medicare Part D-covered supplies such as syringes, needles and inhaled insulin devices are not included in the national mail-order program.
CORRECTION: In the Weekly Alert for June 20, 2013, "Medicare's National Mail Order Program for Diabetic Testing Supplies," CMA mistakenly included glucose monitors in the list of diabetic testing supplies subject to the DMEPOS mail order competitive bidding program. The glucose monitors are not included.
Under the national mail-order competitive bid program, traditional Medicare beneficiaries will purchase their diabetic testing supplies through a national mail-order contract supplier ("Mail Order Option") or in person from any Medicare-enrolled supplier of non-Medicare testing supplies ("Non-Mail Order Option").
Mail-order supplies will be shipped directly from the supplier to the beneficiary through a service such as United States Postal Service, Federal Express, the United Parcel Service or a mail-order contract supplier's delivery service. Beneficiaries can find suppliers at http://www.medicare.gov/
Medicare Part B will reimburse mail-order deliveries provided that they are delivered directly from the supplier to a beneficiary's residence.
Beneficiaries who select the Mail-Order Option cannot have diabetic testing supplies shipped to a pharmacy and then have the pharmacy deliver the supplies to the beneficiary. If this is attempted, Medicare Part B will not reimburse the supplier or the pharmacy.
Unfortunately, this means that beneficiaries no longer have the option of delivery from a local vendor even if the local business delivers other items to them.
The conclusion: Advocates will need to explain the two mail-order options to Part B beneficiaries to ensure that beneficiaries are fully informed of their options. Also, advocates will need to reiterate that those who choose the non-mail order option should call their pharmacy or other vendor to make sure they accept Medicare assignment.

Smoke, mirrors and smelly fertilizer.
Something smells here....the Gov forced banks to make risky loans (CRA), then when the bubble bursts, the Gov blamed the banks. The media and low info peoples went along with it, making the banks out to be evil robber barons. NOW, the banks are settling to stave of Gov prosecution?Something smells here...
So these people who bought homes with no money down and then defaulted will get paid for what - the humiliation, the inconvenience, for being ignorant, for being unable to balance a checkbook or manage their own finances? Just another form of redistribution of wealth to idiots.
Extortion. The "regulators" haven´t found any "smoking guns" and really don´t want to finish going through the mountains of mortgage documents. The bank really doesn´t want them there either (think audit on steroids). So the government says, give us back $10B that we gave you and we´ll go away. And like every "settlement" the details are kept secret. So yes, #2, this stinks.
Linda Green was unavailable for comment, all 22 of her.
It is much easier to pay the tribute to the federal government than to fight them in court.So the deadbeats who didn´t pay their mortgages, many of whom extracted maximum equity by remortgaging, are rewarded? And those of us who paid our mortgages are laughed at?
Meanwhile, Bernanke continues to print money, give it to the banks at 0% interest, then the banks in turn lend that money right back to the govn at 3%. Lending back to the govn is mush less risky than lending to the general public, so the working taxpayers are paying for the govn to rip them off.
BOA..? no sweat, they will pay it off with our money
Just a new tax on the 1%.
The comments after the article were very interesting, espcially one that said people are trained to think your neighbors are deadbeats. Truth is many that lost their homes had fixed mortgages and a good downpayment, they just lost their income, then their savings.Funny that this revelation should come after December 31 and anyone who´s mortgage is writen off will get a 1099 and hefty tax bill.

Hello Friday Fashion lovers. Welcome once again to your end of week fashion news round-up...
First up, our immaculately placed sources tell us that Marc Jacobs will CATEGORICALLY not be taking the vacant role at Dior, despite all the hype pointing to his imminent appointment. I'm afraid we can't shed much light on who it will be but the FashEd is thinking that it may end up being a complete surprise, somebody we've hardly heard of before. Quite frankly, I wish they'd just hurry up and tell us- the suspense is too much.

Recipe by RUBYJEWEL
"When I make this soup, I always get rave reviews. The tarragon gives it a special taste. Tastes great the next day for leftovers! To be honest I don't measure the ingredients when I make this recipe, so this is my best guess at how much of each I use. This makes a very thick soup, with a bite of something in every spoonful. If too thick, add more water or chicken broth."
Watch video tips and tricks
4 cups water, or as needed
1 tablespoon chicken soup base, or to taste
1 tablespoon dried tarragon
2 teaspoons dried basil
ground black pepper to taste

Online Reservations
Comfortable seating with the option to eat outdoors had it been cooler. Great brunch with unique mimosa flavors.
This was my third time dining at Sola and once again, I had an excellent experience! The drink selection is very unique, the tuna porte appetizer was amazing, the Halibut entree was perfect, and my friend and I split a banana flavored ice cream hot fudge sundae (it sounds odd, but was incredible!)
Mahi mahi and halibut were both delicious and perfectly prepared. disappointed only in that the 'pan fried brussels sprouts' were really greasy - every bite was followed by a mouthful of oil! ice cream spectacular.
Food is fresh, much of it light with great lo carb options with incredible favors! Does fish extremely well and the short ribs are fantastic! Great service and much appreciated, moderate noise level. Been several times and is consistently good. Never disappointed.
Sola is the only restaurant that my girlfriend and I frequent. The seared tuna steaks are the best in the city! The service is always above par and we are treated very graciously every time we visit. This is definitely the neighborhood gem of North Center and I would recommend it to anybody.
I simply LOVE everything about this restaurant. Consistently great food. Delightful service. (Karen this visit) I really can't say enough good things. Fresh and inventive. I don't know how they keep doing it. Bravo!
This was the third or fourth time I have been to Sola and each time has been wonderful. This is definitely a great Chicago restaurant destination with amazing Hawaiian influenced dishes. Our server, Carlos, was the best!! Great suggestions/recommendations and very energetic! NIce outdoor dining space, quiet side street and good ambience. Will be back here soon for sure.
Sat outside for brunch. Great, unusual food. I had Bipbap. Loved it
Great food. Great place. Get the tempura squash blossom if they have it. And either the steak or the tuna, can't go wrong with either.
Had another great dinner there. Always good food. This time, probably the best serving of Tuna I ever had. I was a bit disappointed in the Steak Tartar as there was not much steak.
This place has an amazing Brunch menu! It is absolutely fit for foodies! I loved the ham and cheese French Toast. TRY THIS PLACE!
My husband and I LOVE Sola. We hadn't been in a few years and have rediscovered it. Great menu, delicious food, warm and amiable service. On street parking and outside dining. What could be better. Everything we ordered was off the charts delicious.
Delicious food, excellent service, lovely atmosphere (outdoors was nice)--always a great night out!
I can't figure out why more people weren't here for this spectacular Sunday Brunch. Great Food. Awesome service. Fabulous Patio. Interior of the restaurant is modern, clean and friendly. What more could you ask for? We will definitely be going back for dinner.
We (3 friends) picked Sola becasue it was located equi-distant from our homes and becasue the menu online looked good. We were pleasantly surprised. Each small dish was interesting, creative and tasty. Each one elicited a yummm... from one or all of at the table. Even the simple crispy brussell sprout leaves were wonderful. The wine choices by the bottle and glass were not exactly extensive but there were many varieties to choose from. We had an Albarino - really nice. Desserts were great too. Plenty of choice for chocolate lovers (or not). Our waiter provided excellent service with just the right amount of comment and attention. I wish it were in my neighborhood.
I've been here many times and the food is consistently good. Best restaurant on the north side of town.
It is worth a bus or cab trip to come to Sola. We had 2 meals in quick succession, a dinner and a brunch, and thoroughly enjoyed both. The vegetarian selections are not numerous but are excellent. Also, the staff goes the extra mile. We will definitely return.
After dining here with a friend, I returned four days later with my husband. The receptionist remembered me, giving us a warm welcome. The room, a storefront with lots of windows on the urban street scene, is warmly lit as evening arrives. My salad included s Japanese greens, with a subtle sesame dressing. The dressing on his asparagus salad had a hint of smoke. He had an unusual Hawaiian fish, my chicken was coated with a deep flavorful glaze. A dish of crispy Brussels sprout leaves came "on the house". Unusual ice creams ( in a "flight" of three) like sesame seed and salted caramel were an irresistible dessert. As the meal was ending the server I'd had on the previous visit came to our table, expressing her delight at seeing us.
LOVE Sola. Food, service, ambience is all fantastic!
Been here several times. Great food, service and ambiance. Cozy and cool.
the staff was very cognizant of the special dietary needs of our party. excellent choice of entrees.
Service was attentive and accommodating. Food was delish!
Spectacular appetizers to share with the table...tuna poke, octopus, duck potsticker all fantastic. Gazpacho soup with mint I will dream about. If your a Brussel sprout fan, their preparation is a nice spin.
We go to Sola a couple of times a year. Wonderful cocktails, I like their special Manhattan. I've had their pork, chicken, mahi-mahi, tuna and duck. All have been outstanding. The service is always informative and attentive. And I love the comfortable atmosphere of Sola. Everything from the chairs to the carpet to the lights are calming yet classy. For sides, go with the brussel sprouts. And for appitizers, go with the octapus (if its on special that night). Regardless of your choices, Sola won't disappoint. Great comfortable, romantic, neighborhood spot that's high-class dining with reasonable pricing. A true gem on the north side!
So glad we made it there. Amazing fish dishes and great wine choices. The service was amazing... our server was so attentive and friendly, but most of all was well versed with the menu. We will be back.
delicious food. the crab cakes and mushroom salad were delectable. the truffle parmesan fries were yummy. I had monchong, which is a Hawaiian fish I always get when I visit Hawaii and have never seen it on a Chicago menu...it reminded me of being back in paradise.
Everything about this restaurant is great! I am already looking forward to my next visit to Sola!!
Sola always delivers. The food is wonderful! Try the artichoke fritters and the Pork appetizer...both awesome. The seafood dishes never disappoint and the other meat, pork and poultry dishes are all high quality too. Service is friendly and efficient. Great bartenders make some top notch cocktails. Sola is simply one of our favorites!
Excellent unique food and service. Outdoor patio is large.
Very nice sidewalk seating on quiet street. Service was fantastic and great brunch menu with ample choices. The tuna tacos were the best I have had on either coast (including Hawaii) - no ka 'oi !
My husband and I celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary at Sola. We chose it because it was close to home and had. We were not disappointed. The food was very, very good. My scallops were cooked to perfection as was my husbands tuna (seered, not overdone). The knockout for me was the dessert, though. I had ordered the pris fixe menu, and it came with the bread apple pudding with a hoisin carmel sauce and a cinnamon, anise ice cream. I thought I had died and gone to heaven! The staff was efficient, friendly and did not hover--just the right amount of talking. Overall, this is a great place to go for a romantic date.
It has been a number of years since I have been and happy to see it is still going strong. Reservation was late (crowd needed to move inside due to rain), but they kept us informed, even Carol came out to explain (much appreciated) and offer a glass of wine. Food was great and later in the evening it was easier to have a conversation. All good all around.
Sola is just a wonderful place. Terrific, interesting food. Lots of great seafood dishes reflecting the Hawaiian connection to this restaurant. You will not find friendlier or better wait staff. Great, warm lighting. If you haven't been in the 7+ years Sola has been around, go now. You will be so glad you did!
We enjoyed the small plate options particularly the artichoke fritters and the egg roll with napa. The ice cream choices for dessert are all tempting but don't miss the sesame brittle; in fact, take some home. Service was prompt, efficient and friendly.
This restaurant was fabulous. A very california like design with huge front windows. The service was impeccable and so nice. The owner was on site who interacted with us. The food was simply amazing. I highly recommend this place in such a vibrant area of various other places close to Wrigley field.
My son picked Sola for his family birthday dinner and it was a great choice. Service was outstanding. A gem in the city.
Was trying to find a nice and exciting dinner place for my mom's birthday that didn't require reservations a month in advance for a Sunday evening. I found Sola through Yelp and I'm glad I did. The menu was unique and so enticing that my family had a hard time culling down what we wanted to order to a reasonable number of dishes. Our waiter was both patient and helpful, and even snuck us an extra scoop of ice cream at dessert when we couldn't narrow down the flavors we wanted to try for the 3-scoop flight. It was a great atmosphere and fancy and unique enough for foodies, but there were also a handful of families with younger kids there as well that didn't seem to be struggling with the menu.
We enjoy their monthly themes. October is apples. The prix fixe is a great deal, especially with the wine pairing. Highly recommended.
Great neighborhood spot - been going for years and have never been dissappointed!
We had a very nice experience. There were big and small plate options which we enjoyed.
Loved the food (esp the barramundi) and the service was excellent. We went for dinner this time, but I also highly recommend the brunch.
Go for the crab cakes, or if you're more adventurous, gnocci for a starter; sample the signature tuna or fab chicken with a Hawaiian flair as an entree, go for the pho jito (non-alcoholic cucumber mint cocktail) or sample something with more of a punch to it, but whatever you do, DO leave room for the caramel brittle house-made ice cream. Can NOT be beat. Major find. Gone back twice already, going back again.
My wife and I had a great time at SOLA. We went here for her birthday and couldn't have had a better time. We'd definitely recommend this place to friends and will look to come back.
All of the dishes (appetizer, salad, entree and dessert) were very well executed. A lot of taste combinations you don't encounter elsewhere, along with excellent service. Our only complaint was the heating system. We were next to the window on a freezing night and the temperature kept oscillating between comfortable and jacket-necessary cold...
For foodies, there are the temples of gastronomy featured in the food news/magazines. But the 24 course including molecular cuisine is not some one, or this one, does on a regular basis, Sola s a place that one does come back to again and again. Great food, service etc, and while many dishes are always there, the menu is inventive and often changing. One "special", yet often there, is the cheese stuffed lamb chop, one of the very bests I have ever had-including at the "tples". The food is loosely Hawaii inspired, like barramundi often on menu, so a number of Asian touches, like the special octopus salad had a sea weed base. I loved it. In sum, one of the best restaurants on the North Side of Chicago and well worth a visit.
Whether for Sunday brunch or an evening meal, this place always does everything right. The food tends more on the hardier side. The service is always great. They are very dependable for a good evening.
We had the duck potstickers (fantastic), the artichoke fritters (good, but overrated), the crispy mushroom salad (more of a arugula salad with deep fried mushrooms, very tasty) the tuna tataki (delicious), and a lamb special stuffed with camborzola (great). Our waiter was nice. The drink selection was good. We will be back.
Personable and knowledgable servers, fabulous food, and a warm atmosphere that is designed so you can still have a conversation even when the place is busy. The ahi tuna is terrific. Lovely Manhattans. Sola is my favorite upscale place in the neighborhood.
I've been going to Sola now quite a few times. I would consider it a regular place I now visit. The food is excellent and decently priced. The staff is very good as well. Pete has been my waiter now twice. He remembered my name on the second visit. Very impressive.
My wife and I brought a couple friends from LA out to brunch at Sola last Sunday. The service was fantastic, our server recommended the Veggie Benedict to my wife who was intrigued with its description of it's base being edamame-bamboo rice cake instead of the traditional muffin. She was very pleased with the choice. My buddy and I both had the 'steak and egg' which was fantastic with the panko-bacon-crusted tempura egg on top. His wife ordered the huevos benedictos which proved to be a bit too much for her, but she loved the leftovers afterwards. We feel fortunate that Sola is part of our neighborhood. Its our first choice when someone comes to visit us from out of town and a regular stop for us when we want to dine as a couple.

"We recently change our girls U-8 team name to the Dragons (long process, secret ballots and all). So, when I found this jersey, I knew I needed it for the team. We had our first games of the season this weekend and the girls were totally pumped to wear the jersey. They love the design! I love the quality of the product. It's a really nice jersey for the price and the last one we had (flames) lasted for 3 seasons with no signs of wear at all. Nice product, good quality. All around a winner!" (E1608)

I recently noticed these cameras in one of my local stores. By the looks of it they are basically built along the same lines as the GoPros. I'm not sure how they compare, but if anyone has any experience with these little cameras, please feel free to post you comments. You can find more info on their website here: http://www.aee.com/en/index.asp
China strikes again.
The SC-21 looks exactly like the Swann Freestyle. I picked one up off Woot for about $100 a while back. It shoots OK video enough for my use anyway and it was cheaper then a Go Pro.
I think these are old because in the spec listing they don't list windows 7 as a compatible system, just Win XP, mac,ect.
But if it can be had for 100 bucks I guess it's worth it, as long as it works with win7.
And yet another contender: http://www.camonetec.com/
Please feel free to add to the list. It would be nice to have a reference point for all of these small sports cameras.
This is some video I shot this afternoon with my Swann Freestyle HD. The source video was 720p 60 frames. I used minimal vibration dampening and I think it came out pretty clear. Mjolnir 0.5 test flight.
Windows 7 picked it up with no special drivers needed. It just saw it as a flash drive.
@Carl: do you have any HD footage? I'd be curious to compare the quality with GoPros.
I could take some, The down side is that I live in the middle of nowhere and have satt internet and am stuck on usage quotas.
Ive a Geonaute 720p which is the same as the AEE, the only thing I find when using a Vid TX is the amount of icons on the screen, they are out of the way of the picture which is excellant
Carl, no worries on the HD then. I'll try to look at videos online to get a feel for quality.

2dr Conv Red Line
Starting at | Starting at 19 MPG City - 28 MPG Highway
Saturn's Sky offers bold styling that GM hopes can lure buyers away from the popular Mazda Miata and Honda S2000. The Red Line offers as much horsepower as any other 2-seat convertible under $35,000, and produces enough punch to run with many roadsters that cost $10,000 more.
The Saturn Sky sees mostly cosmetic changes for 2009, though Bluetooth hands-free connectivity is now standard on the Sky Red Line and optional on the base model.
The Saturn Sky, which debuted for the 2007 model year, shares the same Kappa platform as the Pontiac Solstice. Standard features include 4-wheel anti-lock disc brakes, air conditioning, cruise control, remote keyless entry and the usual power accoutrements. The Sky separates itself from its Pontiac sibling, the Solstice, by providing an added layer to the cloth convertible top for more noise attenuation and a revised suspension.

1. Project Description
Gentoo's true strength is its impressive and constantly evolving developer base. It's the job of recruiters to manage the growth of the development team by locating, approving, and managing new developers to add further innovative talent to our already strong organization.
2. Developers
All developers can be reached by e-mail using email@example.com.
3. Subprojects
The recruiters project has the following subprojects:
4. What does it take to be a recruiter?
Recruiters need to possess several talents in order to successfully oversee additions to the development team. First and foremost, a recruiter needs to be a good judge of character. While most new developer sponsors pick only the best candidates, there have been and will be occasional duds. Recruiters need to be able to analyze an individual's background, experience, and past contributions, then use that information to decide whether or not to accept a developer. Recruiters also need to be aware of the big picture in order to recognize weaknesses in the organization and accept developers who will shore up those weaknesses. Remember, recruiters always have the final say on new developers. Never be afraid to say no, but always offer a detailed explanation of the decision.
5. What does the recruitment process involve?
All new developers must have a mentor. This mentor will be responsible for guiding the new developer through the new developer process and offering help to the developer futurely. Mentors should assist by pointing the new developer to developer-related documentation, answering questions, and explaining the ins and outs of working for Gentoo as much as possible.
A bug must be filed for each new developer. The bug summary should be 'New Developer (real name) (nickname).' The bug must contain the new developer's real name, email address, and reason for joining the project. Real names must be provided for all developers, including infrastructure and documentation. Any exceptions to this for extenuating circumstances will be considered on a case-by-case basis. No exceptions will be made for people doing copyrightable work (ebuilds, software, scripts, documentation, etc.). The bug should also contain who the new developer's mentors will be and any other information the mentor wishes to provide. Please do not attach quiz answers or encryption keys to the bug -- these should be emailed to recruiters. The new developer and all mentors should be CCed on the bug to keep everybody in the loop.
A developer's bug tracks his progress throughout his lifetime at Gentoo. If the developer retires, the initial recruitment bug is used to track all the things that must be done to retire a dev. If the developer later returns, the same initial recruitment bug is used to track it. Returning developers are subject to the same criteria as a first-time developer and must go through the same steps to rejoin Gentoo.
The new developer will have a mentoring and evaluation period of up to a month. This will be determined by the recruiter based on feedback from the mentor. During this mentoring period, the mentor is responsible for providing the quiz. Additionally, new developers should be responsive to questions from recruiters during this waiting period. If the new developer will be absent for significant periods of time during this period, the bug should be updated to reflect this. If a new developer is unresponsive to pings, recruiters will close the bug. Bugs closed under these circumstances may be reconsidered at a later time.
Developers taking the quiz (linked above) should consult technical and policy documentation for answers. Mentors may provide as much assistance as needed. Along with the quiz , an OpenSSH SSH2 DSA public key for infrastructure access should be provided to recruiters.
Developers working strictly on infrastructure, documentation, or bug-wranglers with no CVS access to the Portage tree typically do not need to take the ebuild quiz. Instead, a staff quiz is provided. See the quiz page for more information.
Recruiters may reject new developers if they feel it's appropriate. Additionally, for 30 days after joining, a new developer is considered to be in a 'probationary period' in which their mentor is responsible for actions taken by the new developer. This provides a certain level of accountability.
6. Stuff to remember
When adding yourself to a bug
I will be your recruiter. Please send your quizzes to email@example.com when approved by your mentor. Always add a comment to this bug when you send something to that address. When the quizzes are sent please contact me by IRC or email to schedule the first review session. If you think that recruiters aren't paying attention to this bug at any later point in time, it's your job to ping us on IRC if you don't want any delays.
For review session
I will go through your answers, find out errors and ask some extras related and unrelated to the quiz questions. Take your time, it's supposed to be a learning experience as much as a test of your skills. But just tell me if you can't absolute find something so that you don't use too much time.
After the sessions you are asked to submit a fixed versions of the quizzes so logging the session might be prudent.
For setting up
Code Listing 6.1: Bugzilla setup comment
What we did: - LDAP - bugzilla - cvs/svn/git groups on cvs.gentoo.org - IRC cloak - sent you your LDAP/mail password via encrypted mail - announcement Automatic: - gentoo-core - gentoo-dev-announcement What you need to do: - subscribe to mailing lists with your @gentoo.org address - request forum status bump in #gentoo-forums or by mail to email@example.com (if you have a forums account) - send yourself mail to check if it works - add yourself to mail aliases ( like email@example.com ) see /var/mail/alias on dev.gentoo.org - ask team leads to add yourself to herds.xml for the herds you want to join or do it yourself if you have the permission to do so - Register to wiki.gentoo.org with your @gentoo.org e-mail address using the following instructions: https://wiki.gentoo.org/getting-started - set lat and lon attributes in LDAP if you want others to know where exactly you are located - set gentooIM if you want people to be able to contact you via other means than email - If you want your blog to be syndicated to planet.gentoo.org, check http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/userrel/planet/index.xml - contact email@example.com for Foundation membership (optional) For the mentor: - You are also responsible for the commits of your recruit during the first month so you should watch the commits of your recruit via gentoo-commits mailing list.
7. Steps for adding a new developer
1. Adding the new developer to LDAP
At first, start adding the new developer to LDAP. This requires you to ssh to dev.gentoo.org and use the newdev-fill.sh script to create the new account. This script will ask you for all needed information and will set the ldap attributes. You should have your LDAP password by hand, you will be asked for it for every LDAP change.
Code Listing 7.1: Creating the initial UID in LDAP
# ssh dev.gentoo.org # newdev-fill.sh hyakuhei
Please be aware, that as of 17. December 2007, all dates in LDAP should be spelled in ISO8601, meaning like this: YYYY/MM/DD (ie. 2007/12/18).
Afterwards it should look like this:
Code Listing 7.2: Completely filled informations
# perl_ldap -b user -s hyakuhei Searching... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dn:uid=hyakuhei,ou=devs,dc=gentoo,dc=org uid: hyakuhei cn: Robert Clark givenName: Robert sn: Clark userPassword: {crypt}$1$HP/3wW0V$XUMrrFeQDHiMSGDOIUAbi/ shadowLastChange: 13520 shadowMax: 99999 shadowWarning: 15 loginShell: /bin/bash homeDirectory: /home/hyakuhei mail: email@example.com email@example.com gecos: Robert Clark shadowInactive: 15 shadowExpire: 14883 gidNumber: 100 uidNumber: 2159 gentooJoin: 2007/01/07 herd: undefined gentooStatus: active objectClass: top person organizationalPerson gentooDev inetOrgPerson posixAccount shadowAccount ldapPublicKey gentooLocation: Wales, UK birthday: 1984/06/29 gentooRoles: Security/log monitoring apps, Auditing gpgkey: 0x2217D168 gpgfingerprint: 4C01 D375 8AEF CB2D 3AED 3B2D 119C 7E35 2217 D168 gentooMentor: his-mentor gentooDevBug: 012345 sshPublicKey: ssh-dss AAAAB3NzaC1kc3MAAACBAKmRjZ21SqPHwRXgkWDVuLfSZ5FOSV26x\ aV3Fnsc68r9caDWMZyD8PAJfXUeDXYOcUt4F3ZB+VL3DQSGg4ZEf4XVoNIOVn\ u87QaQyMJYT+u2EPsTJv99HZJM+tGT/ng6JfnRMWYdEDAUJ6iKZLNPKt+KWH7\ KprlHxRUJzd1MpbsVAAAAFQD9i0iTAesG4A1PJwT232+6IxtDlwAAAIEAoVtc\ O/ef4pd5WdJaeneOlmaFEF+P3lBbkaomT5oFv4GI+0BS3b+C9gOV+akDpu3Fn\ 5JREwN665P+Cnid2y3FVZY77CazbfHBpVX6elTndo1wxRYE02GxMkhqWpuMkc\ MChdRjhRrcLHzAh6wO64r/wd5ofciBxuP2+ilWT151frgAAACAda4optpsYWm\ oSwIiLqfjr+Akxvzn9LWDcJ4LI4U8wakiHgBEGlhiIE7zrmS4ZEp8vGKv/Rhk\ 3fOU96eUsoWFyMYtYFtCv5hQBJrqhC5Ur3dvjVzbracSZytn2xrTc+AEngPXu\ 55WN2ebq/LMMTQV0Sq2wbDc7g9Jkxr4apAGDIM= firstname.lastname@example.com" gentooAccess: dev.gentoo.org cvs.gentoo.org lat: 3.43521 lon: -4.2333
The sshPublicKey has been splitted in many lines for this website, it is just one line.
2. Granting svn/cvs/git access
In order to grant access to cvs/svn/git to the newly added developer, you will need to ssh to cvs.gentoo.org and add the username to the appropriate groups.
Code Listing 7.3: Adding a developer to the groups cvs, svn and git
# ssh cvs.gentoo.org # gpasswd -a hyakuhei cvs Adding user hyakuhei to group cvs # gpasswd -a hyakuhei svn Adding user hyakuhei to group svn # gpasswd -a hyakuhei git Adding user hyakuhei to group git
3. Creating the developer's account on dev.gentoo.org
Now get the developer to ssh to dev.gentoo.org as the first login will trigger the creation of his account.
Note: Try handing the dev-to-be the full commandline like ssh firstname.lastname@example.com, in order to minimize mistakes and/or misconfigurations. Also point developer to LDAP guide so they know how to check and change their attributes if needed.
4. Changing the developer's bugzilla login
Note: Before chaning the developer's bugzilla login email, let them decide wether she/he wants to setup email forwarding for his Gentoo e-mail account.
After the developer logged in successfully, you can proceed with the recruiter process. Login to bugzilla, choose Users in the Row Edit. Supplement the developer's current email adress (the one he used for bugzilla).
Change his current Login name to read firstname.lastname@example.com (in the present case that is email@example.com). Hit Update once you're finished with the modifications.
5. Setting the developer cloak to gentoo/developer/account
Every developer should get a cloak in the form @gentoo/developer/account, where in most cases the account is the same as the nickname he uses.
You need to ping our group contacts (mentioned in the topic) on #gentoo-groupcontacts and ask for a gentoo/developer cloak for the new dev. One of them will have to acc the request. After this, someone from freenode staff will change the cloak.
6. Developer operator status in #gentoo-dev
After freenode staff has changed the cloak for our new dev, he should get +o when joining #gentoo-dev. In order to make sure, the AUTOOP is working, kick the new developer from #gentoo-dev and wait till he rejoins. If everything is working as it should, he will get the +o on join by ChanServ.
If you want to automatically give voice status (+v) in #gentoo-dev to a recruit, e.g. during his/her mentoring period, use the following command:
Code Listing 7.4: Adding the developer to ChanServ's access list
[(status)] /msg ChanServ access #gentoo-dev add hyakuhei +ViA
7. Introducing the developer on mailing lists
In order to announce the new developer, you as recruiter have the honour to introduce him to the developer community. Write a brief introduction containing some details about your recruitee to gentoo-dev-announce and gentoo-project.
Remaining tasks
Please follow up with the developer during their first month to make sure they are adapting well and to address any concerns.
8. Reinstating developers
For returning developers gentooJoin needs to have an entry for everytime they come back and gentooAccess needs to be set to "active". You also need to make sure that the gentooAccess attribute contains at least the following two values: cvs.gentoo.org and dev.gentoo.org.
Code Listing 8.1: Updating gentooJoin
# perl_ldap -b user -C gentooJoin "YYYY/MM/DD" nick
Code Listing 8.2: Updating gentooStatus
# perl_ldap -b user -M gentooStatus "active" nick
Code Listing 8.3: Updating gentooAccess
# perl_ldap -b user -C gentooAccess "dev.gentoo.org" nick # perl_ldap -b user -C gentooAccess "cvs.gentoo.org" nick

Epistaxis is a common event encountered by 60% of the population. 1 Fortunately, only 6% of this group requires medical attention. There are multiple etiologies of nasal bleeding, including hypertension, facial trauma, iatrogenic complications, hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), benign or malignant tumors, vascular abnormalities of the internal or external carotid arteries, and coagulopathies. Despite the wide spectrum of etiology, most cases of epistaxis are idiopathic.
Dr. Nasser Razack is currently engaged in an Interventional Neuroradiology fellowship at The University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA. Dr. Jonas Goldstein is the director of Interventional Neuro-radiology at Ashville Radiology Associates, Ashville, VA. Dr. Mary E. Jensen is an Associate Professor of Radiology and Neurosurgery and Director of Interventional Neuroradiology at The University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA.
Sokoloff et al 2 introduced embolization as a method for the treatment of epistaxis in 1974. Despite the ease and effectiveness of his treatment regimen and the fact that endovascular treatment has been shown consistently to have equal or higher success rates with lower morbidity and mortality than surgical ligation, endovascular therapy has failed to be accepted as the primary treatment modality for epistaxis unresponsive to nonsurgical therapies. In addition, proximal surgical ligation of regional blood supply blocks access and stimulates the recruitment of endovascularly inaccessible and/or dangerous anastomoses, making future embolization risky or impossible.
Patients with epistaxis that is unresponsive to medical, topical, or direct-pressure therapy or patients with emergent, life-threatening hemorrhage are considered candidates for endovascular therapy. Important clinical information obtained prior to the examination includes: pertinent past history for trauma, neoplasm, or surgery; previous episodes of epistaxis and therapy received; and the presumed site and cause of the hemorrhage. Hematologic and coagulation studies should be recent, and hemoglobin and/or platelet deficiencies should be corrected.
Diagnostic angiography and embolization are performed in the same session. High-resolution digital angiography is used in all cases because of its variable frame rate filming, road-mapping, and live subtraction capabilities, and near instant views of angiographic runs. Angiographic analysis of the "vascular map" of the nasal cavity evaluates the site of hemorrhage and the adjacent normal tissue, determines the most appropriate vessels for embolization, and searches for dangerous anastomoses.
The arterial anatomy to the nasal fossa consists of a dual blood supply from branches of both the external (ECA) and internal (ICA) carotid arteries (figure 1). The majority of the ECA supply is via the internal maxillary (sphenopalatine and greater palatine branches) and facial arteries. Anterior and posterior ethmoidal arteries arise off the ophthalmic artery to supply the nasal fossa. The major supply to the nasal fossa is via the lateral and medial branches of the sphenopalatine artery.
Angiography of the external carotid artery may show a variety of findings depending on the underlying cause of the bleeding. In hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia, angioectasia lends a typical "corkscrew" appearance to the terminal branches of the internal maxillary and/or facial arteries. Traumatic or iatrogenic injury may show vascular irregularity, arterial transection, pseudoaneurysm formation, or extravasation of contrast material. Tumors such as juvenile nasoangiofibromas show dense staining of the lesion with a persistent tumor blush. In patients with hypertension or coagulopathies, as well as in idiopathic cases, the vascular supply to the nasal mucosa is frequently normal in appearance, and angiography is performed to rule out the presence of other causes of epistaxis.
The order in which the vessels are studied depends on the situation and the angiographer's preference. In patients who are actively bleeding, the "most likely" vessel is evaluated first and is treated. Then, adjacent vascular territories can be studied to rule out other bleeding sites or contributing vessels. When the source of hemorrhage is unknown and it is anticipated that bilateral carotid branches will be embolized, the internal carotid artery may be studied first to exclude an unexpected carotid siphon or ophthalmic artery source. A global ECA study is then performed, followed by superselective catheterization and embolization of the targeted ECA branches. A postembolization common carotid injection will ensure that internal carotid artery or ophthalmic feeders have not recanalized the embolized territory.
Embolization is performed using a coaxial system consisting of a larger guiding catheter, and a variable-stiffness microcatheter for superselective cannulation. Many catheters, guidewires, and embolic agents are currently available; this discussion is limited to the more common materials used in the treatment of epistaxis.
Guiding catheters are required as part of the coaxial system used in the catheterization of small vessels. Although these catheters range in size from 4F to 10 F, most guides for epistaxis embolization are 4F to 6F. The use of a smaller guiding catheter decreases femoral artery compression time and complications but requires road-mapping to be performed prior to the placement of the microcatheter or through the microcatheter. Some of the newer 5F and 6F guiding catheters have large inner lumens (0.054 to 0.066 inch) that allow road-mapping around the microcatheter and soft tips that reduce the risk of vasospasm. Use of a femoral sheath provides patient comfort and improves catheter movement and response.
The tip of the guiding catheter is positioned in the parent artery, where it acts as an introducer for the smaller microcatheter, which passes through a rotating hemostatic valve connected to the guiding catheter hub. The dead space is flushed continuously with heparinized saline to prevent clot formation. A three-way stopcock placed on the rotating valve sidearm allows the injection of contrast material through the guiding catheter for serial angiograms or road-mapping while the microcatheter is in place.
In almost all cases, a steerable microcatheter is used in combination with a microguidewire to access the targeted vessels. The lumen of a steerable microcatheter is sufficient in size to accept a variety of embolic agents, including particles, gelatin sponge pledgets, platinum microcoils, and liquid agents. Steerable microcatheters vary in size and stiffness and may have metallic braiding in the wall, hydrophilic coating, and/or Teflon lining the lumen. The choice of microcatheter is left to the operator's preference, but braided, hydrophilic microcatheters often demonstrate better "pushability" and tracking. Frequently, a small 45° angle is steamed into the end of the microcatheter to assist advancement around curves or to engage vascular orifices. Steaming should be done with a shaping mandril in place to prevent shrinkage of the catheter tip. Flow-directed catheters are usually reserved for treatment of high-flow lesions, such as arterio-venous malformations or fistulae.
Like microcatheters, a variety of microguidewires exist and vary in diameter size, stiffness, and materials used in construction. Newer guidewires also have hydrophilic coatings to decrease friction between it and the microcatheter. Larger diameter microguidewires (0.014 to 0.016 inch) usually have better torque control and provide a stiffer support for microcatheter advancement than do smaller (0.010 inch) wires. Although these systems appear to be relatively atraumatic, excessive guidewire or catheter manipulation or wedging of the catheter tip in the artery can induce vasospasm. Alteration of blood flow to the lesion may prevent safe and effective embolization by increasing the risk of reflux or opening collateral channels. If vasospasm occurs, it can be relieved by the application of topical nitroglycerine (Nitropaste, Fougera and Co., Melville, NY) or the administration of intra-arterial vasodilators (i.e., papaverine). Removal of the catheter and a "tincture of time" will also often alleviate the vasospasm.
The embolic agents are chosen based upon the lesion being treated, the type of occlusion desired (temporary versus permanent), and the preference of the interventionalist. Particulate agents are used in most cases of epistaxis, and create mechanical blockage of the targeted vessels with individual particles of uniform size and shape. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is the most common particulate agent and is supplied in a variety of size ranges, from 45 to 1000 µm. This material adheres to vascular endothelium, inducing endothelial proliferation and fibrosis. The particles also incite thrombosis within the vascular bed, and recanalization around the particles from collateral flow may occur. Particles smaller than 150 to 200 µm are avoided because these are more likely to pass through dangerous anastomoses, which may occlude the vasa nervosum, resulting in cranial nerve palsies, or may cause skin or muscular necrosis. Other particulate agents include microfibrillar collagen and gelatin powder and/or shredded sponge. Particulate size in gelatin powder ranges from 40 to 60 µm, and, if chosen, must be used with extreme caution for the above-cited reasons. Gelatin sponge can be shredded or rolled into pledgets of 2 to 3 mm in length, for embolization.
Larger, more discrete agents include latex and silicone balloons, stainless steel coils, and platinum microcoils. Balloon use is most frequently seen in the treatment of fistulae or for permanent parent artery occlusion. Microcoils may be used to protect a normal vessel or to prevent accidental embolization through a dangerous anastomosis. Use of microcoils as a proximal occlusive agent in feeding vessels should be avoided in case embolization is necessary. Liquid agents such as tissue adhesives and absolute alcohol are reserved for specific situations and carry significant risks. These materials should be used only by experienced operators and very rarely have a place in the treatment of epistaxis.
Treatment strategies vary depending on the etiology of epistaxis. In patients with idiopathic epistaxis, angiographic visualization of the hemorrhage site is rare. The approximate site of the presumed bleeding should be determined by the clinician, and the appropriate vascular territory is targeted for treatment. The selected vessels are embolized as distally as possible, with special attention to the presence of dangerous anastomoses between branches of the internal and external carotid arteries. Patients presenting with epistaxis from nasopharyngeal tumors are treated with particles in a manner similar to idiopathic epistaxis.
The protocol followed at our institution involves particulate embolization of the bilateral internal maxillary arteries, and one or both facial arteries (figure 2A and B). The pterygopalatine portion of the internal maxillary artery is catheterized selectively to avoid embolization of the muscles of mastication, which may result in trismus. In the facial artery, catheterization is distal to the labial branches to prevent lip paresthesia. If the facial artery cannot be negotiated, embolization is done proximal to the labial artery with larger particles or gelatin sponge pledgets. The blood supply to the nasal cavity is rich in collateral circulation, and the risk of mucosal necrosis is low as long as an appropriately sized embolic agent is selected. Small to moderately sized (250 to 500 µm) PVA particles are commonly used for most cases of epistaxis. To allow the operator to monitor vessel runoff, stagnation of blood flow, and reflux of the embolic agent, particles should be suspended and delivered in contrast material. Embolization is complete when the smaller branches are no longer visualized and the larger arteries take on a "pruned-tree" appearance. A gelatin sponge pledget may be placed in the main trunk following particulate embolization to promote hemostasis and thrombosis (figure 2C). To assess results and the need for further embolization, the nasal packing may be removed while the patient remains on the table. We prefer to leave the packing in place overnight, with subsequent removal by the clinician under controlled conditions.
The internal carotid artery should be evaluated for the presence of contributory feeders or other vascular abnormalities, such as aneurysms, and, in cases of trauma, for evidence of vascular injury (figure 3). Traumatic epistaxis may be associated with penetrating injuries of the carotid artery or facial fractures. Small branch dissections or pseudoaneurysms may be treated by permanent occlusion of the feeding vessel using microcoils placed just proximal to the site of vascular injury. Traumatic injury to the internal carotid artery is considered an emergency and will most likely result in occlusion of the parent artery.
The complication rate of transarterial particulate embolization in experienced hands is <1%, although facial nerve paresis and cerebral infarction have been reported. Complications are usually caused by: selection of inappropriate embolic material; reflux of embolic material caused by vascular spasm, insufficient selective catheterization or overzealous injection; or failure to recognize potentially dangerous anastomoses. Other complications include skin necrosis when too forceful an injection of fine particles is employed, and trismus with embolization of the muscles of mastication. Some patients may complain of headache, sinus tenderness, or low-grade fever. These postprocedural symptoms are self-limiting and are treated easily with analgesics. AR
