I have an application that watches for file system events. This requires a permanently open handle to the target volumes. This is fine for things like the system boot drive and other fixed devices but very undesirable if we're dealing with volumes hosted on removable devices such as eSATA, USB, Firewire, iSCSI, etc, as the user may want to unplug these at any time but the open handle will prevent "Safely Remove Hardware" from succeeding.
Ideally I'd like to prevent my application from latching onto any volume whose parent may appear in "Safely Remove Hardware" as the default. The problem is, there doesn't seem to be a documented way of determining what devices show up there and what devices don't. Am I missing something? Does anyone have a lead?
Note that it's possible to query a device's bus type and this almost gets the job done for me:
typedef enum _STORAGE_BUS_TYPE {
BusTypeUnknown = 0x00,
BusTypeScsi = 0x1,
BusTypeAtapi = 0x2,
BusTypeAta = 0x3,
BusType1394 = 0x4,
BusTypeSsa = 0x5,
BusTypeFibre = 0x6,
BusTypeUsb = 0x7,
BusTypeRAID = 0x8,
BusTypeiScsi = 0x9,
BusTypeSas = 0xA,
BusTypeSata = 0xB,
BusTypeSd = 0xC,
BusTypeMmc = 0xD,
BusTypeVirtual = 0xE,
BusTypeFileBackedVirtual = 0xF,
BusTypeMax = 0x10,
BusTypeMaxReserved = 0x7F
However the IOCTL returns BusTypeSata for both SATA and eSATA - yet the OS recognizes the latter as something that has to be shown in the "Safely Remove" dialog.

|Hola Good People, coming to you via the endless summer of 2014. I'm having a wonderful time balancing long studio hours with these priceless beach jaunts to catch waves and to float face up in the warm blue water looking up at the vibrant blue sky. Blue everywhere! It's the best color too I think.
We had a good gig last week with Leonard Patton at Northern Spirits playing Leonard's new songs. It was a nice turnout and folks seemed to enjoy the sonic mix. Play on Leonard!
I have a fellow from Japan named Nobuo who is here at SpragueLand for two weeks recording a new CD. He's into Brazillian music and composes his own music set in the bossa nova style. He sings in Japanese and it's a wild combo! Think Joao Gilberto meets lost in translation!
On tap for this week, first off on tomorrow night we're playing a trio hit at the 3rd Space Gallery in San Diego. It's Ben Wanicur on bass along with Duncan on drums. We've got a cool set planned and it's a spot where music is the main thing. We always love this kind of setup!
On Wednesday night I'm playing a solo concert at the Pacific Beach Library. It's one of my favorite spaces to play and one of the highlights is that SILENCE is an option. A lot of times this isn't so as there's background noise hogging up the bandwidth. There's magic in the air when you can play that note and let it hang forever. I'll be doing that in PB and come on out to let a little more silence creep into your life.
On Thursday night I'll be at the Roxy playing solo and last week the roof almost blew off. There we're a zillion folks in for the music and SILENCE was not an option. It was more about the friendship and the hang and the great food. Music too but I got buried a little. Hoping for an upgrade this week and I'm always game. See you there!
On Sunday morning guitarist Fred Benedetti and I play a spirited set of music as part of the Little Italy Festa taking place in downtown San Diego. We've done it before and they've got great sound and staging and music going all day. It'll be fun and Fred is always the MAN on guitar!
Last up, curling into next week, it'll be Fred, Tripp and me with our Blurring the Edges group throwing down the sonic palette at Grossmont College on Monday night. It's always a good day making music with these guys and the setup there is tre' bien as well. Hope to see you there!
That's it for now and I'm heading back into the control room to tweak the samba tracks to perfection. Thanks for reading and hope to see you out there soon, Peter
Maybe I'm Amazed!
|Salutations Good People, just floating up here in Encinitas after a magical night of Paul McCartney and his band's show at Petco Park last evening. Oh heavens, what amazing music from Beatles tunes to Wings classics to "Helter Skelter" complete with explosions and fireworks leading up to the encore segment of the songs from Abbey Road, all run together, all impeccably executed. It was a night I'll never forget. And the collective vibe of 50,000 folks all sitting close, taking it all in was powerful. Next on the list, gotta figure out how to get our band out on the road to do an arena tour. Shouldn't be that hard….hah!
The muso that I play a bunch of shows with and have a real music connection, Leonard Patton, has a new CD just coming out and on this Tuesday night we're celebrating it's release into the world. It's all happening at Northern Spirits and the band is cooking and it'll be a special gig. Hope to see you there!
Last up for this week, I'll be back at The Roxy on Thursday night to play a solo guitar hit. I always miss this place when I'm taken off to other venues. It's a good day in Encinitas to be back in the flow. I'll play a little more than usual Beatle music to celebrate Paul's SD return. Maybe he'll stop in for some falafel and sing "Hey Jude" with me…See ya there!
That's the story for now. Stay well and stay inspired!
best, Peter
Billy Rides Again!
|Greetings Good People, what an exciting time! I'm listening now to Laura Nyro's music reimagined by the brilliant pianist and composer Billy Childs and this all from his new CD "Map to the Treasure, Reimagining Laura Nyro". I'm blown away! It starts out with Renee Fleming and Yo Yo Ma and from there touches down with the great Dianne Reeves, Shawn Colvin, Esperanza Spaulding, Alison Krauss and many others. Fantastic, lyrical, amazing music! Billy rides again!
And other great news, I'll be joining the band for his gig of this music up in Orange County in mid October. Look below for the details and for me, I'm heading to the woodshed to learn his twists and turns.
We had a super fun gig at Croce's last week and the place is set up for full on listening and it's a great sounding room. It's wonderful to play with the boys again and we hope to do it again!
Up for this week, I'll be connecting with bassist Harley Magsino and drummer Duncan Moore for a night of trio music at The Merc in Temecula. Big fun and we'll pull out some new stuff too! Hope to see you there…
And rounding out the week, Stef and I are lucky folks to be joining some friends to take in Paul McCartney's music concert at Petco Park. As you know, I'm his biggest fan and if he'll let me, I'll jump on stage and start playing jazz licks over "Got to Get You Into My Life". Hah!
There it is friends and thanks for tuning in, best, Peter

Fugitive lip biter arrested in California

Lawyer says Heed sentencing for DWI involved no special treatment
"I'm 62 years old. I should know better, you know, but I would learn," Heed said with a laugh at the hearing.
Heed, of Westmoreland, also told Judge Lawrence A. Mac-Leod he was sorry.
"I apologize to your honor. I apologize to the state police," Heed said.
"I am thoroughly embarrassed. You can rest assured you won't see me here again, at least not on this side of the table."
The casual-sounding tone of the hearing in the 8th Circuit Court-Keene District - which was held a day earlier than originally scheduled - was to be expected, according to Heed's attorney, Paul G. Schweizer.
Heed has long known several of the people in the courtroom, including the state police prosecutor, Scott Ellis, Schweizer said.
"Would you expect it to be contentious?" Schweizer asked. "He's known and worked with people in the room for many years. As county attorney, he knew the police prosecutor very well and gets along with him."
Heed, who didn't respond to requests for comment, received no special treatment, Schweizer said.
"He basically got the same thing anybody would get. He wasn't treated any better," Schweizer said.
At the hearing, Heed waived reading documents that may have provided details of the arrest, and waived his rights as part of the plea agreement accepted by Judge MacLeod. "DWI'' was never mentioned during the hearing.
There were no reporters present, and Schweizer said he wasn't sure whether anyone unrelated to the case was in the courtroom.
Heed was sentenced to a nine-month license suspension and $500 fine for DWI-first offense. (See related story.)
A news release state police Sgt. Shawn M. Skahan issued after the hearing said the sentence Heed received is "the standard for first-time offenders where no extenuating circumstances exist (i.e., a blood-alcohol level .16 or above; serious injury; or, an attempt to elude police)."
There was no mention of Heed's blood-alcohol level at the hearing, in the state police complaint, or in court records.
Schweizer said there was no blood-alcohol level in the record because Heed refused to take a breath or blood test to measure it. As part of the plea agreement, Heed will also not face the administrative license suspension process for refusing the test, Schweizer said, adding that, too, is common.
"If somebody doesn't take (the BAC tests), they can't be charged with having over .16," Schweizer said. "(Heed) was appropriately charged ... he was arrested and pleaded guilty to it."
Skahan's release said Heed can petition to have his license reinstated after 90 days provided he completes the Impaired Driver Care Management Plan within the first 14 days of his conviction.
Heed mentioned at the hearing that he was probably one of the first offenders to be sentenced under the new law. Judge MacLeod said it was his first such hearing, as well.
Judge Edwin Kelly, administrative judge for the Circuit Court, said the hearing was moved up one day because the sitting judge recused himself and Judge MacLeod was available that day in Keene.
Skahan's release said Heed's Wednesday arraignment was moved to Tuesday because "a neutral and detached justice was needed given Heed's familiarity with the surrounding courts."
Skahan's complaint on file in court said Heed was arrested for driving under the influence on Route 9 in Keene, while original reports indicated Heed was arrested in Sullivan after police were tipped that someone was driving erratically.
Heed resigned as attorney general in 2004 after one year amid allegations he inappropriately touched a woman at a state-sponsored domestic and sexual violence conference, then tried unsuccessfully to withdraw his resignation. An investigation cleared Heed of any criminal conduct.
Heed served as Cheshire County attorney from 2006 until the end of December, when he resigned shortly after being reelected to join Abramson, Brown and Dugan, a Manchester law firm, to head an office in Keene.

Full text of speech by Tánaiste Joan Burton
'Government setting out how it will avail of opportunity to ensure the recovery improves living standards for every person'
Tánaiste Joan Burton, who is to remain as Minister for Social Protection, has set out her priorities for the remainder of Labour's term in Government. Image: Oireachtas screengrab.
Statement by the Tánaiste and Minister for Social Protection Joan Burton TD on the nomination of the new Government
Many individuals, families and communities have experienced the worst of times since the economic crisis first struck. But I am optimistic that the best of times are still ahead of us, because a window of opportunity has opened for this country.
And today, this Government is setting out how it will avail of that opportunity to ensure that the recovery improves living standards for every person, every family and every community.
In other words, we will deliver a social recovery to accompany the economic recovery now firmly under way – to ensure that the recovery works for the many and not just the few, and that the burden borne by the people of this country has not been in vain.
This means an unrelenting focus on jobs, increased living standards and affordable homes for our people. I look forward to working with the Taoiseach and our coalition partners to make that social recovery happen.
When this Government took office, the economy was on the brink of collapse and threatened to bring down social cohesion with it. Now it is clear that huge progress has been made on the job of economic repair.
The economy grew by a healthy 2.7 per cent in the first quarter of the year. Unemployment has fallen for 24 months in a row, and is down to its lowest level since 2009. Exports are at an all-time high and Government borrowing is falling rapidly.
In a little over three and a half years, Labour and Fine Gael in Government have restored financial stability, ensured Ireland's successful exit from the EU-IMF bailout programme and overseen a return to economic growth.
And for that, I want to thank former Tánaiste and minister for foreign affairs and trade Eamon Gilmore for his principled leadership and unyielding resolve to put Ireland on the road to recovery.
I also want to thank former minister for education and dkills Ruairí Quinn and former minister for communications, marine and natural Resources Pat Rabbitte for their immense contributions not alone to this Government's work, but to public life.
Eamon, Ruairí and Pat have always fought for progressive change in the best interests of our people, and I know that they will continue to do so.
The progress we have made on economic recovery has created the conditions to place an equal emphasis now on social repair.
And I'm confident that, through the statement of priorities we are publishing today, and this Government's determination to see those priorities achieved, we will successfully deliver a social recovery.
A new deal for working families The social recovery starts with jobs, because secure work is the single best protection against poverty.
So the Government will continue to strengthen the domestic economy, continue to implement policies that fuel growth, and prioritise new jobs for the unemployed through our Pathways to Work strategy.
Helping small and medium businesses to prosper again will be crucial to increasing employment. The Government will establish the Strategic Bank to channel billions of euro in much-needed finance to our SMEs over the next four years, and that in turn will create thousands of new jobs.
But they must be jobs that pay decent wages, where people don't need to fall back on welfare. One of the first things I did upon becoming Minister for Social Protection was to restore the Minimum Wage to €8.65 an hour.

Supporting Acts: The Stepkids
Kimbra, NZ born songstress, is not a name synonymous with your average female singer, songwriter. Bringing a modern edge to the worn sounds of soul with a voice that belies her age, her jazz-influenced theatrical pop is inspired by a range of musical genres and artists, from Nina Simone to Bjork and Prince. After 3 years now based in Melbourne, Kimbra has completed her debut full length album, 'Vows', set to be released in August. Featuring on the album are producers Francois Tetaz (Architecture in Helsinki, Gotye) and M-Phazes (Amerie, Pharoahe Monch). Her popular debut single and video for 'Settle Down' received rave reviews from around the world claiming her as the 'one to watch for 2011'. Kimbra also featured on Miami Horror's track 'I Look To You' and has recently released second single off the soon-to-be-released album called, 'Cameo Lover'. Kimbra's whimsical soul pop invokes both past and modern soul luminaries, but matched with her own intrigue and quirk, a breath mint for the pop scene, and a knack for theatrics to show that being a bit "out there" is the name of her game. Make no mistake - Kimbra is picking up steam even as she arrives. It's going to be a wonderful trip.

(NASDAQ:AMZN)—Amazon.ca today announced that the new family of Kindle e-readers is now available to customers in Canada. The all-new top-of-the-line Kindle Paperwhite is the most advanced e-reader ever built with 62% more pixels and 25% increased contrast compared to the previous generation Kindle, a patented built-in front light for reading in all lighting conditions, up to 8 weeks of battery life, a thin and light design, and is available in both Wi-Fi only and Wi-Fi + 3G models. Never pay for or hunt for a Wi-Fi hotspot with the free 3G wireless Kindle Paperwhite for just CAD$199 or choose Kindle Paperwhite with Wi-Fi for only CAD$139. The new latest generation Kindle, the lightest and smallest Kindle ever, with new, improved fonts and faster page turns at the low price of CAD$89. Kindle, Kindle Paperwhite and Kindle Paperwhite Wi-Fi + 3G support multiple languages, including French, and are available starting today at www.amazon.ca/kindlepaperwhite.
In addition, Canadian customers can now access the Canada Kindle Store directly from their Kindle. The Kindle Store offers the largest selection of the most popular books, including the most best sellers from the Globe and Mail and Le Devoir best seller lists, winners of the Giller prize, and a broad selection of works from leading Canadian publishers and authors, including Margaret Atwood, Alice Munro and Yann Martel. The Canada Kindle Store has over 1.5 million Kindle books, including over 250,000 exclusive books customers won't find anywhere else, over 35,000 free books, and over 50,000 French-language titles. Visit www.amazon.ca/kindlebooks for more information. All Kindle books are "Buy Once, Read Everywhere"—customers can read their Kindle books on Kindle devices and on iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Android and Windows phones and Android tablets using the free Kindle apps.
"We're excited to make the best-selling and most advanced e-readers in the world available to our Amazon.ca customers for the first time, making it easier and more affordable than ever for Canadian readers to own a Kindle," said Dave Limp, Vice President, Amazon Kindle. "With a Kindle in their hands, Canadian customers can now directly access the Kindle Store with the largest selection of the books people want to read, including the largest selection of best sellers and over 250,000 titles that are exclusive to the Kindle Store."
"E-readers have found their place in today's digital lifestyle by providing users with a unique reading experience," said Mark Shanahan, senior technology merchant at Staples Canada. "Our goal is to help people choose a device that's right for them by offering a broad selection of popular e-readers like the Kindle and Kindle Paperwhite in one convenient place, making it easy for customers to see, touch, and try the product."
Kindle Paperwhite—The World's Most Advanced E-Reader
Most Advanced E-Reader Display, 62% More Pixels, 25% More Contrast
Kindle Paperwhite's display is the most advanced e-reader display ever constructed. Featuring a 212 ppi display, Kindle Paperwhite has 62% more pixels than the previous generation Kindle, making text in books and periodicals crisp and clear at any size. Images are sharper, richer and show even more detail. Kindle Paperwhite's screen has 25% higher contrast than the previous generation Kindle— the blacks are blacker, and the whites are whiter.
Innovative Built-In Light
Backlit LCD displays direct light up through the display into the user's eyes. Kindle Paperwhite's patented front-lit display guides light underneath an anti-glare layer and down toward the display, away from the reader's eyes. This means a reader can read for hours with less eye fatigue and strain. The screen brightness is easily adjusted for reading in any light. The Paperwhite display provides an incredible experience in the dark and in direct sunlight.
Breakthrough Battery Life
Kindle Paperwhite's built-in front light is designed to be used at all times—both in daylight and in a dark room—for the clearest, crispest reading experience. In order to use the light at all times, Kindle Paperwhite requires exceptional power management to maintain the battery life that customers love about Kindle. Amazon's light guide technology precisely diffuses the light across the screen and only requires four LEDs to light the entire screen (unlike LCD screens which can use up to 50 LEDs). The light guide is so efficient that Kindle Paperwhite has a remarkable 8 weeks of battery life, even with the light on at all times.
Free 3G
Kindle's free 3G connection means customers never have to hunt for or pay for a Wi-Fi hotspot—they simply download and read books anytime, anywhere. Amazon pays for the 3G connection on Kindle Paperwhite Wi-Fi + 3G, so customers pay no monthly fees and sign no annual contracts.
Built-In Wi-Fi
Kindle Paperwhite comes with built-in Wi-Fi, letting readers discover new content at home or on the road anywhere you can access Wi-Fi.
Books in 60 Seconds
Find a book and start reading in seconds with our fast, free wireless delivery. No computer required to download content.
New Touch Technology
Kindle Paperwhite's new capacitive touch technology is uniquely integrated into the Paperwhite display, allowing for a thinner form factor for Kindle Paperwhite and even better touch accuracy.
Slim and Sleek Design
At just over a third of an inch thin and weighing 213 grams, Kindle Paperwhite is thinner than a magazine and weighs less than a typical paperback. The bezel height between the side of the device and the display itself is 77% thinner.
Hand-Tuned Fonts
Every font on Kindle Paperwhite is hand-tuned for maximum readability. The Amazon typography team worked at the pixel level to ensure consistency of stroke thickness and shape profiles across all individual glyphs, aligning each size to the specific grid of the new Paperwhite display. This allows for unprecedented sharpness of fonts. Kindle Paperwhite's higher resolution display also allows for new elegant typeface options, such as Baskerville and Palatino, which use thin stems that would not render well on a lower resolution display.
"Buy Once, Read Everywhere"
With free reading apps, customers can read their Kindle books on a large number of devices and platforms, including any Kindle as well as on iPhone, iPad, Android devices, Mac, PC, or Windows Phone.
Amazon's Whispersync technology synchronizes a customer's last page read, bookmarks and annotations across all of their devices, so they can always pick up where they left off.
Time to Read
Time to Read is a new feature for Kindle Paperwhite that helps readers know the amount of time it will take them to finish a chapter or a book. This feature is smart—it personalizes the time for each customer based on their reading speed and is constantly updated as the reader's speed and habits change. With Time to Read, it's never been easier to decide when to start a new chapter or finish the chapter you're reading.
Explore the "Bones of a Book" with X-Ray
With a single tap, readers can see all passages across a book that mention ideas, fictional characters, historical figures, places or topics that interest them, as well as more detailed descriptions from Wikipedia and Shelfari, Amazon's community-powered encyclopedia for book lovers. Amazon built X-Ray using its expertise in language processing and machine learning, access to significant storage and computing resources with Amazon S3 and EC2, and a deep library of book and character information.
Features Built Just for Readers

Thousands of authors in Canada are already using KDP to make their books available in Kindle stores around the world, including Montreal resident Matthew Mather, the best-selling KDP author of the Complete Atopia Chronicles.
"My experience self-publishing with KDP has been nothing short of amazing," said Matthew Mather. "Within weeks of publishing, my book climbed to #1 on the science fiction best sellers list, and now I've sold tens of thousands of copies. I've just finished my second novel, "CyberStorm," and look forward to the idea of writing for a living, something I hadn't imagined possible just six months ago. The best part, though, has been the interaction with readers. I get emails from every corner of the world, contacting me to say how much they liked my work. This is an amazing feeling!"

I've got Gentle.Net objects bound to an ObjectDataSource. I have a grid that comes up fine. I then have a DetailView that is bound to another ObjectDataSource. When I try to update from the DetailView, I can put a break point in the ItemInserting and/or ItemUpdating handlers and step through and watch when the object is set. Each of the object properties, minus the ID field, are set. The ID field is left to zero, as this is the default. I never touch that. However, stepping through I get the following error:
The 'Id" property on the type specified by the DataObjectTypeName property in the ObjectDataSource odsCaseNoteDetail is readonly and its value cannot be set.
I'm not trying to set that value. What's going on and how do some of you work with Gentle.Net and an ObjectDataSource?

Pre-Black Friday Sale: Extra 20% Off Sale & MBT Styles! (Discount shown in cart.)
Select your desired product options and we will notify you when it is back in stock.
A bronze sandal is the perfect stylistic complement for summer nights or beach days. And with Orthaheel's Mia Slingback slide-ons, you won't be uncomfortable or irritated by your plantar fasciitis as the day wears on. These sandals have been specially designed to counteract the aches and pains associated with plantar fasciitis, so you can enjoy being on your feet, not dread it. The podiatrist-designed orthotic midsole come equipped with a deep heel cup for arch support, stability and lower limb realignment.
Footwear Characteristics:
I was excited to buy more Orthaheels after trying my first pair of flip flips by them and finally feeling some relief for my flat feet and plantar fasciitis. I was told by the sales person who fit my Orthaheel flip flops in the store that I should only order size 8, because if the sole was too big, the built in arch support wouldn't be as effective. So I ordered a size 8 for this shoe, but it was half a size too small. My feet are wide and felt too tight with the upper part of the shoe. I hope to exchange these for a bigger size at my local store. It's too bad, since the sole and upper are comfortable and well made, just slightly too small.
Service was fantastic! Shoe seems to be a little narrow--I'm hoping it will stretch.I really like the orthoheel shoes and the style is flattering.
I liked the comfort of sole. This Orthaheel is my ultra favorite!!! My feet and knees always feel better than going barefoot or any other shoe. However, this particular style includes a looped knot detail that hurt the top of my foot and I was sorry to have to return them. But I have already purchased another Orthaheel!!!
Orthaheel has hands down the best arch support. The sandal is comfy overall and looks nice. I have narrow feet and wish there was one more hole on the buckle, but it still fits quite well as is. I'm incredibly glad I bought this pair!
This shoe is so great. I'm so glad I ordered it in black and pewter. It is very comfortable and wonderful for walking which I do lots of when traveling. It also looks nice.
So happy I bought this sandal in pewter and black. Looks great, fits perfectly and very comfortable.

I was so impressed that I no longer feel like I need to shop around other sites for sales or "deals". The combo of the best prices and great service is the best deal! "

At Pearl-Cohn High School a large number of our students have family backgrounds with little to no college education. Therefore, the students are in need of college/career exploration, preparation, and application. Vanderbilt Students for Students has been this kind of tremendous resource at Pearl-Cohn since the fall of 2006. Members of Students for Students come to Pearl-Cohn and provide the students one-on-one tutoring, ACT prep, college application guidance, and the opportunity to interact with role models close to their own age. I applaud the Vanderbilt Students for Students organization for being a real-life example of the value of serving your community by giving a hand-up as they give a hand-out!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this book as it explored games mainly in the context of university libraries. There was a quote from Scott Nicholson, Associate Professor at Syracuse University saying that we need to look as games as "a distinct form of storytelling" and then he highlighted elements of good story telling and draws connections to games. "Storytelling creates a comforting and inviting environment for people to spend time in the library".

The book has chapters which provide overviews and chapters which provide case studies, including what the library learned from the experience of running games programs. It was particularly interesting to see how some of the libraries evaluated the effectiveness of the games. For one it was a measure of who had not previously been in the library.

There is also an extensive resources section which highlights key publications to help libraries explore games. I was thrilled to find that one of my papers was included in this section. It was very kind of the chapter author to include this reference.

While this publication focuses on games in an academic and school library context, there will be much to appeal to public library staff as well. Go and read this book. It also provides suggestions for other key games and library books to explore (so go and read these as well).

This shows the entrance the library, and exhibition currently on. The halloween display was all through the library. It was a 1920s building which had a refurbishment opening up the walls - into lots of glass. It was a well used library.

This shows a nice seating area in the library.
This was a very impressive exhibition. It had lots of children using it, and so I could not photograph it for a while.

I am including all the photographs of tea and promotion, to show that it does not have to be fancy. I really liked the way the tea was promoted at the tea plantation. I was thrilled there was an honesty box (I had never bought tea this way before). They were taking advantage of the location, and it was in a smart and professional way. It is lovely tea too.Ellen Forsythhttps://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-3605663891369927860.post-20688208795599503102014-10-28T07:23:00.000+11:002014-10-28T07:23:00.615+11:00My review of Good guys wear black - and there is a library connection hereGood Guys Wear Black by Lizbeth Selvig
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

As you can tell from my reading on Goodreads, I don't read much romance. I investigated this one because I was interested to see how a librarian would be depicted in current romance. A short way into this book I was wondering if it had an endorsement from the American Library Association (like the NASCAR/Harliquin connection) as there was very detailed information provided about the freedom to read and Banned books week. Various characters gave very clear and detailed explanations about the importance of the freedom to read, and of how Banned books week could be used to heighten awareness of previously banned titles. There was also a good description of how communities can register a complaint about a book. This was of interest as we have a very different approach in Australia, with much less banning. I felt these descriptions dominated the story for a long time, but they may have been needed for some character and story development.

The main man in the story was called Dewey, and I did not feel nearly enough was made of his name when he started getting to know the new librarian in town (trust me, this is not a spoiler).

I had a few concerns about how the library was depicted. Much attention was given to the children's area (and the new librarian was described as a specialist in this area), however, signage seemed to be handmade, and there was no mention of current technology in the library.

A few asides, the cover is not an accurate representation of the main man, Dewey. This book came to my attention via an rss feed.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I first read Betsy Greer's work in the anthology she complied called Craftivism. This earlier work show the origins of her later one. This book is her personal story of coming to knitting and discovering the connections which can be made with it, connections to many people, including a previously difficult to speak with relative, connections to strangers who see her knitting in public, and connections to activism, or craftivism. This personal story shapes the narrative, but does not overwhelm it. The author has been very proactive in using her knitting to connect to others, and made me think that I should make a few changes around how publicly I knit.

Interspersed within this work are the stories of others, told in their own words about how crafting has connected them more deeply to their community either nearby or to be able to help strangers who they may not meet. There are also knitting patterns which can be used for different works of craftivism/charity knitting. When reading this, I kept thinking about the many knitting groups in public libraries across Australia who knit for Wrap with love and other charities, and the powerful act of craftivism these many people are continuing to do. It was great that this was brought to mind by reading this work.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The title sums up the book, but it is still a really good idea to read the book and explore the way the ideas are presented.

A key quote is:
"Why is everyday creativity important? Because I feel that it's incredibly important - important for society - and therefore political...But it is the fact the people have to make a choice - to make something themselves rather than just consume what's given by the big suppliers - that is significant. Amplified slightly, it leads to a whole new way of looking at things, and potentially to a real political shift in how we deal with the world."

The author brings together many examples of making, using examples from social media (including Flickr and Youtube) but also using some offline examples of making as well. Gauntlett has a very interesting discussion about art/craft encouraging people to rethink how they think about them, and his discussion is very interesting.

He also looks at Ruskin and the work of William Morris, and this adds a very helpful viewpoint to the discussion. It also highlights the need to explore examples of good practice. Making is very much about making yourself as part of making things, and about our place as citizens. To quote from Ruskin, and this book 'do what you can'. It is also about thinking about consequences for our actions, including the environmental consequences. "Crafting can be a reclamation of the power of life".

I enjoyed reading this book and it is adding to the ideas which I am exploring in this area. It was an entertaining and interesting read where stories were used effectively to illustrate points.

This is a really interesting read. The rating of three indicates the varying interest of the chapters. Some were amazing, and for others, I was not the right reader for them, or the time was not right.

One quote from the book is:
"Online knitting community sites such as Ravelry, have also facilitated and energised new and existing offline "stitch n bitch" groups, pub knitting circles, fibre festivals, and knit meets providing a range of virtual and physical sites for participating in knitting as a shared, collaborative, and public activity. At both ends of this spectrum of leisure and activist knitting, technology use goes hand in hand with craft. Knitting, alongside online articulations and representation so knitting, are seen as recursive digital/social practices, connecting material and physical activities with social networking, microblogging, and face-to-face interaction".

This quote highlights some key themes shown in several chapters which are the key use of social media and online interactions with offline activities. There is the exploration of "digitally mediated maker identity" which uses digital spaces and interactions "extending the boundaries of their physical artifacts into digital realm as a conscious, reflexive activity".

GLobal connections are explored, as a very local initiatives. Some chapters report on existing practices and analysis of them, others describe one off projects designed to explore ideas in this area. Gardens, zines, electronics and much more are explored in this work.

You could also think about supporting this for All hallows read, as it is giving a book, but just a bit differently.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I had not come across the term craftivism before reading this book, but I had come across the actions of craftivism, having seen many people be active in Wrap with love, and other charity knitting done in many libraries, as well as other public projects (and been involved in some myself).

This book brings together a wonderful range of craftivism people and actions, some you will have heard of and others which are new. There are some lovely options, which help communities, such as the crafted baskbetball nets to replace stolen and vandalised ones, and the work of the Adithi collective who were stitching the story of Chile, but were not regarded as dangerous as they were embroidering. Their embroidery was able to tell people what was happening (because it was regarded as harmless), this subversiveness was critical for sharing information outside the country during a very tough time.

Some of the stories are about individuals and their singular paths of craftivism, while others are stories of communities or groups working together.

There are a many countries and styles of craftivism discussed, as well as some interesting historical examples. This book would be useful for libraries to add to their collections for local craftivists, but also for thinking about programs and services provided by the library, and for helping people connect to information to help with their craftivism. This is a key role which libraries and their staff can play.

It struck me that there should be a deliberate discussion in more places (including libraries), so that people think more strategically about the craftivism, and acknowledge that it is as powerful as it is.

I am now doing a lot of catch up reading about craftivism.

This makers place / maker space opened last night in Leichhardt. It is a pop up space, so it will be interesting to see what happens over time. There were other things there, but I could not have photographed them without being really intrusive. A potter was making pots on a wheel, there were four 3D printers, a microbiology space and a few other things. It looks really interesting. Thanks to @anne_doherty1 for the information about this.

You can see a few more photographs of the space here.

Three farm are working with various partners on this, including the local council.

I have no idea if this sculpture is linked to the Makers place (I think it may be), but as I am reading Un Lun Dun by China Mieville it seems a rather wonderful connection with that novel, and a wonderful reuse of brooms.Ellen Forsythhttps://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-3605663891369927860.post-36939845122647521232014-08-19T06:20:00.000+10:002014-08-19T06:20:00.563+10:00Science Museum tours on twitter.This came to my attention because I follow Medium, and read this article about Museum tours on twitter by Will Stanley. It is a good idea to read the article before reading this post.

The Storify is beautifully done, because it records the twitter tour and it bring the comments about it to the stream as well, highlighting the conversation. I like the use of the Science Museum twitter account, and that the curator being identified as leading the tour. This is lovely. This could be done for so many local studies events and location. Imagine tweeting a walking tour, so that someone could do the tour by following the tweets or be able to able to see the tour without being there. It would be great to highlight collection items, the way the Science Museum has. It would also work well for local festival (to help record them for local studies).

Have a look at more of the use of Storify from the Science Museum.

 This was part of the Mini Maker Faire which is at the Powerhouse Museum this weekend.

I had been to maker fairs before, they just have had many different names. This one was a lot of fun because of the diversity of makers.

The Embroiders Guild was present encouraging people to add to a collaborative piece of embroidery, and to have a go.

Lace makers were in the Lace Centre showing needle and bobbin lace methods.
You could have a try at bobbin lace, which was was soothingly mathematical.

The fablab was going apace with the Hack the collection items being printed. The museum objects were in their cases, and their new partners were being printed. You can read about it here, and access the museum files here.

And of course there were drones

I enjoyed seeing the range of makers, and being able to talk with the people behind the ideas. This was fun. People were generous and enthusiastic. I liked the broad interpretation of maker, which is appropriate. There are many exciting ways libraries can connect with the makers in their community.Ellen Forsythhttps://firstname.lastname@example.com

Its very quiet! Small little box 10.5" x 8.3" x 10.2"
It only uses about 55w (have it plugged into my killawatt meter), and I have 4 drives in it. Bumped the ram to 8GB, which from reading can go to 16GB even though says 8GB max. And added a 2nd nic (so could use as my router), Sure you could run whatever linux/bsd/windows OS you wanted on it baremetal. But I love the VM aspect of it - My nas VM has raw access to the disks, and I get 70-90MBps transfer rates to and from it.
I would highly recommend it - and cheap. Currently on newegg for $319 (2gb 250GB hdd)
Its very very quiet!! It sits about 3 feet from my chair in my computer room, and never even notice it on other than the lights on the front
