How would I go about converting an address or city to a latitude/longitude? Are there commercial outfits I can "rent" this service from? This would be used in a commercial desktop application on a Windows PC with fulltime internet access.
Google has a geocoding API which seems to work pretty well for most of the locations that they have Google Maps data for.
They provide online geocoding (via JavaScript):
Or backend geocoding (via an HTTP request):
The data is usually the same used by Google Maps itself. (note that there are some exceptions to this, such as the UK or Israel, where the data is from a different source and of slightly reduced quality)
Nothing much new to add, but I have had a lot of real-world experience in GIS and geocoding from a previous job. Here is what I remember:
If it is a "every once in a while" need in your application, I would definitely recommend the Google or Yahoo Geocoding APIs, but be careful to read their licensing terms.
I know that the Google Maps API in general is easy to license for even commercial web pages, but can't be used in a pay-to-access situation. In other words you can use it to advertise or provide a service that drives ad revenue, but you can't charge people to acess your site or even put it behind a password system.
Despite these restrictions, they are both excellent choices because they frequently update their street databases. Most of the free backend tools and libraries use Census and TIGER road data that is updated infrequently, so you are less likely to successfully geocode addresses in rapidly growing areas or new subdivisions.
Most of the services also restrict the number of geocoding queries you can make per day, so it's OK to look up addresses of, say, new customers who get added to your database, but if you run a batch job that feeds thousands of addresses from your database into the geocoder, you're going to get shutoff.
I don't think this one has been mentioned yet, but ESRI has ArcWeb web services that include geocoding, although they aren't very cheap. Last time I used them it cost around 1.5cents per lookup, but you had to prepay a certain amount to get started. Again the major advantage is that the road data they use is kept up to date in a timely manner and you can use the data in commercial situations that Google doesn't allow. The ArcWeb service will also serve up high-resolution satellite and aerial photos a la Google Maps, again priced per request.
If you want to roll your own or have access to much more accurate data, you can purchase subscriptions to GIS data from companies like TeleAtlas, but that ain't cheap. You can buy only a state or county worth of data if your needs are extremely local. There are several tiers of data - GIS features only, GIS plus detailed streets, all that plus geocode data, all of that plus traffic flow/direction/speed limits for routing. Of course, the price goes up as you go up the tiers.
Finally, the Wikipedia article on Geocoding has some good information on the algorithms and techniques. Even if you aren't doing it in your own code, it's useful to know what kind of errors and accuracy you can expect from various kinds of data sources.
Yahoo! Maps Web Services - Geocoding API accurately geocodes UK postcodes, unlike Google's API.
Unfortunately yahoo has deprecated this service, you could visit http://developer.yahoo.com/geo/placefinder/ for yahoo's service
Try this: http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=1600+Amphitheatre+Parkway,+Mountain+View,+CA&sensor=false
more info here: http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/geocoding/
When you convert an address or object to a lat/long it is called Geocoding.
There are a lot geocoding solutions around. The solution right for your project will depend on the acceptability of the licensing terms of each geocoding solution. Both Microsoft Virtual Earth and Google Maps offer solutions which are free to use under a very restrictive licenses...
Having rolled my own solution for this before, I can whole heartedly recommend the Geo::Coder::US Perl module for this. Just download all the census data and use the included importer to create the Berkeley DB for your country and point the Perl script at it. Use the module's built in address parsing, and there you have it: An offline geocoding system!
You want a geocoding application. These are available either online or as an application backend.
Virtual Earth does it. There is also a web service at geocoder.us
Maptsraction (http://www.mapstraction.com) lets you choose between any number of geocoding services. This could be helpful if you need to do large quantities, as I know Google has a limit to how many you can do a day.
You could also try the OpenStreetMap NameFinder (or the current Nominatim), which contains open source, wiki-like street data for (potentially) the entire world.
you can use bing maps soap services, where you can reference reverse geocode service to find lat/long from address here is the link http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc980922.aspx
Try with this code, i work like this with addresses:
It is link in which with GET method you will send request and get lat and lng. http://maps.google.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=YOUR ADDRES&sensor=false
For exemple: http://maps.google.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=W Main St, Bergenfield, NJ 07621&sensor=false
1. Create your GET method.
2. Create method for send request
3. Call method getLatLng
4. Parse JSONObject
Now result is JSONObject with information about address and lan,lng. Parse JSONObject (result) with gson(). After that use lat,lng.
If you have question about code , ask.
The USC WebGIS Geocoder is free and offers several API's, or you can upload a database for online batch processing.
You can use Microsoft's MapPoint Web Services.
I created a blog entry on how to convert an address to a GeoCode (lat/long).
Thought I would add one more to the list. Texas A&M has a pretty decently priced service here: http://geoservices.tamu.edu/Services/Geocode/
A good option if you have a pretty large set of addresses to geocode and don't want to pat 10k to Google or Microsoft. We still ended up using the returned data in a Google Map.
you are asking about Geocoder. Google provide an API for this. so does another provider for this.
you can see the demo of implementation in My Current Location .net

Poca, Hutchins aiming high
If 2011 was a sign of things to come, then expect another big year for the Poca girls soccer team and junior standout Harley Hutchins.
Poca won a school-best 17 games, and Hutchins, then a sophomore, scored a career-best 28 goals to lead the Dots to a regionals appearance last season.
"I'm excited to see what we can do and how far we can go this year," said Hutchins, a 2011 Class AA-A first-team all-state choice. "We have a young group of girls this season and a ton of speed. We're playing aggressively and working really hard this year."
Hutchins, a forward, believes setting yearly goals is a good form of motivation for her.
"Last year I wanted to score 20 goals, and I got 28," added Hutchins. "This season my goal is 30."
Poca coach Mike Shrewsbury believes his star forward can achieve her goal, but is cautious to put a heavy workload on the junior.
"Harley can't be one-dimensional and Poca can't be one-dimensional on offense," said Shrewsbury. "Harley is extremely fast, she has a strong left and right leg, and she has the ability to score anytime from anywhere. But we can't rely on one person to score and Harley can't always outrun everyone."
For a more balanced attack, Shrewsbury is moving former sweeper Marissa Perkins to an offensive-oriented midfielder role this season with the hopes of opening up holes in the opponents' defense for the Dots, and more specifically Hutchins.
"We have to get Harley more into the flow of the offense, which is one reason why we've brought Marissa up," Shrewsbury said. "They have to start working together - the give-and-goes, the overlaps. If our opponent knows the only thing we're going to do is kick the ball to Harley and have her try to outrun the defense, they will just shut her down."
If Poca can get more players involved in the offensive attack, it'll take a lot of the stress off Hutchins and may allow her to be more productive for the team.
"If we can keep the defenses playing us more honest, it'll give Harley more opportunities to move around," Shrewsbury said. "It'll take the pressure off of her, and in the long run it should allow her to score more goals, which is great for the team."
Hutchins also expects to increase her role in the distribution of the ball this season.
"I'm not only looking to score goals, but I want to help my teammates score as well," said Hutchins. "With Marissa back up front, she'll be open to score a lot. I expect her and I to be really close in scoring this year."
The Dots were without Hutchins for their home opener Friday night against Ripley because she hadn't participated in enough preseason workouts.
"I missed too many practices this season and didn't get in my practice days due to my family vacation," said Hutchins.
Hutchins was scheduled to miss an additional game next week, but that game with Point Pleasant was recently postponed.
"We had to reschedule that game," said Shrewsbury. "Point Pleasant's coach had so many players out for various reasons that he doesn't have enough players with the practices to play a varsity game."

UPDATE by: James Buechele
Ads made by Visit Florida are part of its budget used to entice tourists to the sunshine state.
Governor Rick Scott says he hopes to see 100 million visitors to Florida in 2014 which makes funding even more important.
"It gives us the opportunity to be year round in market[ing]," said Phipps. "Go west of the Mississippi. Typically we've been east of the Mississippi and to really to expand our footprint."
Last year the budget for digital advertising was only 5%. This year that number will jump to 30%.
Visit Florida's also expanding internationally by approaching people in Colombia, Argentina and Mexico to visit the beaches of the state. But it's not just the beaches and theme parks that Florida is using to try to attract tourists..
"[Tourism} is the number one industry in the state," said Lee Daniel of the Leon County Tourism Department. "I think we have a great track record of economic development through tourism throughout the state."
Many of the ideas from Visit Florida can trickle down into ways that mean big money and jobs in the Big Bend.
"There's a lot of different ways that we look at their co-op programs and take advantage of those. It helps us stretch our budget and makes our dollars really work harder."
News Release: Governor Scott's Office
ORLANDO, Fla. – Today, Governor Rick Scott announced at Orlando International Airport that VISIT FLORIDA will receive $100 million in funding in the 2014-15 "It's Your Money Tax Cut Budget." With this funding, VISIT FLORIDA will be able to market the Sunshine State year round to domestic visitors, increase marketing to international visitors, and assist communities in attracting direct international air service to Florida.
Governor Scott said, "Last year, we secured more than $63 million in our 'Florida Families First Budget,' for VISIT FLORIDA and we made record gains in tourism. We are on track for another record year, and we hope to build on this incredible momentum and make the Sunshine State the number one travel destination in the world. To do that, we are going to recommend an historic $100 million in our 'It's Your Money Tax Cut Budget' this year. Because every 85 visitors to our state supports one Florida job, a growing tourism industry equates to more jobs for Florida families and a stronger economy."
Through the first three quarters of 2013, Florida welcomed 72.6 million visitors – an increase of 3.4 percent over the same period in 2012. Visitor spending in Florida for January-August 2013 (last reported month) was $51.8 billion, representing a year-over-year increase of 5.8 percent from the same period in 2012. Direct travel-related employment in Florida for January-August (last reported month) rose 2.8 percent, adding 29,700 jobs since this same time one year ago. Each of these figures marks a record, making the first three quarters of 2013 the largest nine-month period in the history of Florida's tourism industry.
"On behalf of the statewide tourism industry, I am grateful to Governor Scott for his recognition of VISIT FLORIDA's ability to provide a significant return on the state's investment in tourism marketing. The Governor's visionary leadership puts us in a position to make 2014 another record year for visitation and fuels the momentum that has Florida on track to become the No. 1 travel destination in the world," said Will Seccombe, President and CEO of VISIT FLORIDA.

FDA Medical Device Review Process: Too Fast or Too Slow?
The FDA is caught in a pickle: Approve drugs and medical devices too quickly to give them proper scrutiny and risk safety problems, or stretch out the approval and take heat for curbing innovation and denying patients new treatments.
The debate on the device front heated up Thursday with the release of a survey of 204 medical device makers. The study — funded by medical device and venture capital industry groups and conducted by Josh Makower, a consulting professor at Stanford who is also the CEO of a medical-device company incubator — assesses the U.S. regulatory process as "unpredictable, inefficient and expensive."
Among its findings:
- Some 44% of responding companies said they experienced "untimely" turnover in key FDA personnel during the premarket regulatory process, leading to inefficiencies. And 34% said "appropriate" staff and advisors weren't around for key agency-company meetings.
- The premarket process takes longer in the U.S., respondents said. Devices seeking approval under the expedited 510(k) process (for devices similar to something already approved) took 10 months from first filing to clearance (31 months from first communication to clearance for those companies that spoke with the FDA about doing a study before submitting an application), vs. 7 months in Europe from first communication to marketing the same or equivalent device. For the standard, more rigorous approval process, it took 54 months from first communication to approval in the U.S. and 11 months in Europe.
- Devices were available in the U.S. "an average of two full years later" than in other countries "due to delays with the FDA and/or company decisions to pursue markets outside the U.S. before initiating time-consuming, expensive regulatory processes in their own country."
- Respondents unfavorably compared the FDA to European regulatory authorities in terms of predictability, reasonableness, transparency and overall experience. And they said costs of development were higher in the U.S.
- The report says that "no information is currently available to suggest that patient safety in Europe has been compromised."
An FDA spokesman tells the Health Blog via email that the survey "compared apples to oranges because companies come to the FDA earlier in the device development cycle than they do in the EU." He says 90% of the 3,000-plus applications received each year go through the expedited 510(k) process and that of those, 98% are reviewed within 150 days.
In August, the agency proposed changes to its approval process it said would clarify when devices are eligible for an expedited review. "In the coming weeks, we plan to announce the specific actions we'll take to enhance regulatory predictability, encourage and facilitate device innovation, and continue our ongoing efforts and commitment to protecting American consumers," the spokesman says.
On a conference call with reporters, Makower noted a few limitations of his research, namely that the companies that responded were self-selected, and may not represent the experiences of the industry as a whole. And not every respondent answered every question, so not all the responses reflect the experience of 204 companies.

All in the family
Movies | Deadpan routine returns in The Wendell Baker Story
The Wendell Baker Story (rated PG-13 for sexual situations and language) is the sort of movie that Luke and Owen Wilson made before they were big film stars.
Youngest brother Luke stars as Wendell Baker, a naïve ex-con trying to get back his ex-girlfriend Doreen (Eva Mendes). Owen plays a nurse running a Medicare fraud at a Texas retirement hotel where Wendell works after his release from prison. A third Wilson brother, Andrew, teams with Luke for the film's direction.
It's the sort of amiable comedy that fans of the Wilson brothers have come to enjoy-except that this time, Wes Anderson isn't involved. Anderson directed Bottle Rocket, the 1996 film that launched both Owen and Luke's careers. He also directed them in Rushmore and The Royal Tenenbaums. But even without Anderson, the stone-faced deadpan of Luke Wilson produces more than enough giggles to make the film worthwhile to fans.
That's possible because veteran Anderson cohorts like the Wilsons and Seymour Cassel (who stars as one of the retirement hotel's residents) could sleepwalk through the typical Wilson brothers' deadpan routine. In one scene, Doreen tells Wendell that she's lucky to have him, hoping Wendell will reciprocate. But Baker, oblivious to his girl's desire to feel loved, simply turns toward her, smacking on a cigarillo, and informs her, "Yeah, I mean, I'm not exactly a consolation prize."
The film pivots on this relationship: As soon as he loses Doreen to a grocery store owner played by Will Ferrel, Baker enlists the help of three geriatrics at the hotel in a comedic attempt to win her heart back. But while the spirit is there for the Wilsons, they struggle to tie up loose plotlines near the end. The Wendell Baker Story probably needed just one more element: Wes Anderson at the helm.

Chinese authorities had sought to block gatherings honoring a self-immolator.
Tibetan activists hold placards during a protest rally in New Delhi on Feb. 1, 2013. AFP
A group of young Tibetans fought back with knives when Chinese authorities attacked and prevented them from honoring a self-immolator, prompting police to open fire, according to Tibetan sources.
The police had attacked the group as well as another group of Tibetans mourning the death of Tsering Phuntsok, 28, who burned himself outside a police station in Sichuan province's Ngaba [in Chinese, Aba] prefecture on Jan. 18 in a challenge to Beijing's rule in Tibetan areas.
"On Jan. 18, several Tibetans from Drachen township in Marthang county in Ngaba prefecture were preparing to leave to pay their respects and participate in prayers for Tsering, who had self-immolated," Sherge, a Tibetan living in India, told RFA's Tibetan Service on Thursday.
"They were stopped and beaten by police, and about 10 of them were detained," Sherge said, citing contacts in the region.
The next day, police approached a second group of Tibetan youth from nearby Serdue township who had gathered at a restaurant while preparing to attend prayer services at Tsering Phuntsok's family home.
Police harassed and beat the group, who "responded by attacking the police with knives, injuring seven of them," Sherge said.
More police arrived and opened fire, Sherge said, though whether police had fired warning shots or fired directly into the crowd was not clear.
"One Tibetan who was injured was detained, but the other young Tibetans escaped from the scene," he said.
Meetings, threats
Chinese authorities then called public meetings in the county seat and demanded to know the whereabouts of four of the Tibetans who had been identified as having fought with police.
"Anyone knowing where they were and who did not hand them over was threatened with severe punishment," Sherge said, adding that police also declared illegal any expressions of solidarity with self-immolators.
Participation in prayer services honoring the dead were included in the ban, Sherge said.
Tibetan regions of China have been rocked in recent years by a wave of self-immolation protests by Tibetans challenging Beijing's rule and calling for the return from exile of Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama.
Ninety-eight have set themselves ablaze so far to call for Tibetan freedom and for cultural, religious, and language rights since the wave of fiery protests began in February 2009.
China on the other hand has defended its rule of Tibet, claiming it has brought development and improved living standards to the formerly independent region since its troops marched in more than 60 years ago.

Soderberg returns with thriller, Seidl with Paradise trilogy
Feb 13 2013
Machinations of powerful companies to push their products and challenge all opposition by means fair and foul, the legal barriers and how the families can desert a person instead of standing tall in support of him when the chips fall -- the screenplay with several layers beautifully holds the straight-line narrative together. As Steven Soderbergh explained, the main challenge was to hold the viewers' interest for the first forty minutes of the film when the story was developing. The rest of the film moves briskly like a thriller. The scriptwriter Scott Burns said that the film is an outcome of several news stories and they had to do a lot of research on the pharmaceutical industry and psycho-pharmacology. Jude Law, who has given a credible wonderful performance, had to stay in a hospital and study the behaviour of the psychologists and their patients.
Ulrich Seidl's Austrian-German co-production Paradise: Hope, the third in his Paradise trilogy explores adolescent sexual behaviour. In the previous two films, he portrayed a mother going to Kenya in search of beach boys and the aunt finding her paradise in house to house evangelism. In the third part, the girl in her early teens is attracted to the much older doctor of the weight loss camp she is sent. The young inmates of the camp are natural and lively. How do they manage the nightly raids of the kitchen, find food and alcohol and escape to a disco? This reminds us of our hostel days. The film handles a delicate subject of adolescent sensuality and passion with tremendous sophistication, restraint and tenderness it deserves. The sense of confinement and the desire of the children to break loose permeate the film's texture. This is one of the most accomplished films in the director's trilogy series.
It snowed in Berlin on Sunday night and the sun played hide and seek on Wednesday morning. Strong surface winds froze our face and breath. Will it snow again?

For some, it's hard to imagine a festival which can program and fill a theater with festivalgoers watching 90 minutes of commercials, music videos, or a documentary about sneakers. Long ago, the folks at RESFEST recognized the appeal, evolution and dramatic advances in media and commercial art and the market that wants to see what's new in those fields. Kicking off its 9th year, as a touring festival, RESFEST offered an ambitious line-up of screenings, panels, product demos and guided tours in the TriBeCa district of New York City. Having dropped its "Digital Film Festival" tagline, RES organizers asserted that their name now can stand alone, offering associative terms "innovative" "creative" and "out of the ordinary." Though of much RESFEST's programming is shot or manipulated with state of the art digital technology, festival programs include creations like hand made animation or documents of hands-on activities like illegal street art.
"We chose to start the festival in New York, because it is a media center, and we wanted to set the tone by starting the festival here," said festival director Jonathan Wells. Offering select programming and different speakers for each U.S. city it tours, New Yorkers listened to director Stephane Sednaoui speak with Wells about his body of work, including a gorgeous new short film/music video based on the Lou Reed song "Walk on the Wild Side." Meanwhile, "Thumbsucker" director Mike Mills will speak in San Francisco while director Mark Romanek will appear in Los Angeles. Comedy fans will be pleased to hear that "Jesus is Magic" starring the brazen Sarah Silverman will be screening in Chicago, many will remember Silverman in her highly lauded comedic delivery in the Sundance doc "The Aristocrats."
Within its regular programming RESFEST offers a wide range of shorts and music video programs. The always well attended music video programs "Videos that Rock" and "Cinema Electronica" garnered appreciative crowds, while the "By Design" and "Cut and Paste" offered a range of savvy and creative displays of media mixing.
Within the shorts programs, numerous recognizable Indiewood names popped up. "Napoleon Dynamite" director/writer Jared Hess' short and sweet "Winner Take Steve" screened in 'Shorts 1'. While, in 'Shorts 2', "The Good Girl" director Miguel Arteta presented a 4 minute film, penned by his pal, Miranda July whose "Me and You and Everyone We Know" took prizes at both Sundance and Cannes. Director Chris Cunningham, already given a director's retrospective with Palm Pictures, screened his latest disturbing collaboration with musician The Aphex Twin titled "Rubber Johnny."
Programmatically the Shorts 1 program offered the most provocative and diverse body of work, though the French team Nakd, managed to upset many and provide little explanation with their short "Flesh" which depicts all of New York City's building coated in images of lesbian porn, and then features the entire city destroyed in a barrage of stylized airplane attacks. When asked by an audience member who had lost a brother in the attacks, "why they would show this four days after the four year anniversary of 9/11, less than a 1,000 feet from the World Trade Center", the filmmakers offered a bumbling "we didn't want to hurt anyone's feelings," which audibly rang hollow to a divided audience.
RES's "Triple Threat" program highlighted three filmmakers programmers have marked for greater success: Jonnie Ross, Francois Vogel, and Nagi Noda. Noda who is based out of Japan, has a distinct and inspiring visual style, the type that seems best suited to be featured at RES. While the majority of her work is equally cute, funny and visually imaginative, Noda's video for "Ex-Fat Girl" manages to also unsettle, as a group of standing poodles back up a bulbously shaped workout instructor.
All feature films screening at the New York installment were of the documentary variety, with two well-known names garnering significant festivalgoer attention. "City of God" and "The Constant Gardener" director Fernando Meirelles' name was always mentioned in conjunction with the Brazilian soccer documentary he produced "Ginga: The Soul of Brazilian Football." Filmed by multiple directors 'Ginga' follows multiple youth in Brazil, as they live out their hopes and dreams of soccer fame, all whilst moving with "that" certain Brazilian flare. With the broad subject matter, quality of the filmmaking, and good audience reception, 'Ginga' seems likely to garner some sort of continued success within the documentary world.
"Hype!" and "Scratch" director Doug Pray drew accolades with the world premiere screening of his new doc "Infamy." Entertaining, and well made, the film takes a personal looks at a remarkably diverse group of seven different established and well-known graffiti artists. Unlike his past films, Pray chooses to focus less on a broader portrait of the 'scene' and instead develop the, often troubled, stories of the seven artists. Pray noted that he had no plans for taking the film to Sundance, where both "Hype!" and "Scratch" premiered, as "Infamy" already has DVD distribution with Image Entertainment, Pray added "RESFEST is great because its like mini distribution, it play in 35 cities, which can start great word-of-mouth going about the film."
Street Art was a theme throughout the entire fest, with a panel 'Street Art or Not?" devoted to the subject, and a free guided walking tour of some of lower Manhattan's more bedecked streets. Artists Mark Schiller and Sara Schiller, founders of the Wooster Collective led the tour. "Its ironic that we're walking through SOHO, a major shopping area, with luxury stores like Louis Vuitton and simultaneously artists are out here reappropriating the space that they were priced out of," commented Sara Schiller as she led half of the 100 plus group up Greene Street, pointing out stickers, graffiti, stencils, tiny-size installations and paintings along the way.
Two artist retrospectives were programmed, one looked at the progression and compilation of the musician Beck's music videos, offering interesting contrasts between his launch pad lo-fi video for "Loser" in 1994 to his highly technical video trickery in "Girl" from 2005. Meanwhile, the festival closed with a retrospective of the work of Los Angeles based, Scandinavian collective "Traktor." Without question the only enjoyable experience I've ever had watching 90 minutes of commercials, Traktor's work is often hilarious, and unique in their frequent decision to shoot in remote and foreign lands. Its actually quite appropriate that RESFEST would chose to conclude the festival with a compilation and nod to such a blatantly and literally commercial body of work. RESFEST's value is that it offers a dialogue and venue for artists and spectators who value art in all forms, be it illegal, avant-garde or made for television.
RESFEST will tour more than 30 cities in the United States and internationally in the coming weeks.

Now that Senator Lieberman has announced he will not seek another term for the Senate, many pundits took Alice Roosevelt Longworth's witticism to heart: "If you can't say anything good about someone, sit right here by me."
I'm not going there. I've got something good to say about the former Democrat, now Independent from Connecticut.
For many, gay and straight, asking Joe Lieberman to be the Senate lead in repealing "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" seemed an odd choice. And frankly, some Servicemembers Legal Defense Network supporters initially were skeptical of the choice. They didn't entirely trust Lieberman. But there was one senator who, from the get go, never had any doubt that Joe Lieberman should and would be a critical player in any successful fight on the Hill to repeal DADT. That senator was Ted Kennedy.
Kennedy was known for his tenacious ability to make strategic alliances and court the right partners to win tough fights on Capitol Hill. He was our original and obvious choice to lead the Don't Ask fight in the Senate, but he and his staff were adamant about introducing a repeal bill only when it had bi-partisan support.
Ted Kennedy wanted Lieberman on the train for a host of good reasons. He knew that Lieberman had the respect of the most senior leadership at the Pentagon, especially Secretary Gates and Admiral Michael Mullen, the Chairman of the Joint chiefs. Kennedy knew their support would be critical if repeal were ever to pass. Kennedy also knew how important it was to keep the lines of communication open, how important it was to build bridges with senators on the other side of the aisle -- and he knew that Lieberman knew that, too.
Kennedy proved to be right. After he became seriously ill and it was obvious he was unable to be our Senate lead, it was Joe Lieberman who agreed to pick up the Kennedy mantle so we could move forward.
Senator Lieberman was in constant touch with Gates and Mullen during the debate and hearings. I have no doubt he was instrumental in Carl Levin's (D- Mich.) decision to sign on as an original co-sponsor of the bill to repeal and throw his full weight as chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee behind Senate passage. In the end, it was Lieberman who secured the support of Senator Susan Collins (R-Maine) on the final critical cloture vote without which repeal would have gone up in smoke, and it was Lieberman who convinced her to join him in mid-December to put in a standalone repeal bill to keep the process alive and momentum going in the Senate.
Anyone who followed this debate closely knows that without Senator Lieberman's determination and hard work the bill would not have passed the Senate by a 65-31 vote on December 18. It was Senator Lieberman who was on the phone with Secretary Gates in the final weeks and days, and it was President Obama, Gates, and Mullen during the final weeks urging senators to vote for repeal. Eight of those critical votes were Republican. Without those Republican votes, without Secretary Gates and Admiral Mullen imploring the Senate to act, there would have been no bill for President Obama to sign on December 22.
This was not an easy fight. Three cloture votes, two of which took place in the lame-duck session. A determined opposition that would not step aside until it was obvious there were more than 60 votes to proceed and win. It should be apparent to all that this battle would not have been won in the Senate without Republican support. Ted Kennedy realized that years ago. He knew that Joe Lieberman could be the bridge to wavering senators on the other side of the aisle.
Even Senator Lieberman's fiercest critics would surely agree that this historical victory in the Senate would not have happened without him -- or Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, and Committee Chairman Carl Levin. A victory of this magnitude was truly the work of several courageous senators.
But in the end, Senate repeal of this discriminatory law is an important civil rights victory for which Joe Lieberman deserves enormous credit. Surely Ted Kennedy would have been among the first to acknowledge that fact. I don't think we would have won without Joe Lieberman. Now that he has announced his retirement, I will be sorry to see him go.

Boston, MA After a five year, round-the-world voyage, the crew of a Massachusetts-based research vessel called "The Odyssey" landed safely in Boston Harbor yesterday. Scientists and others on board the 93-foot boat sailed to remote waters, collecting skin and blubber samples from over 1,000 sperm whales in order to measure the level of toxins these mammals are consuming. They discovered every whale was polluted with heavy metals and insecticides, no matter how far from land they were found.
Although researchers are still analyzing the data, Richard Payne of the non-profit Ocean Alliance says measuring contaminants in ocean mammals that are high up on the food chain says a lot about human health. WBUR's Athena Desai reports.

Technology update
Dec 22, 2011
Nanotechweb.org: best of 2011
In 2011, nanomaterials continue to amaze - making objects disappear thanks to the mirage effect, improving the performance of next-generation solar cells, offering more options for energy storage, providing versatile light-absorbing surfaces and expanding the field of bioelectronics.
This year's top five stories -
1. Carbon nanotubes could store solar energy
Using computational chemistry, researchers show that carbon nanotubes (CNTs) modified with azobenzene could provide the same energy storage per volume as lithium-ion batteries. Dubbed a solar thermal fuel, the material can be recharged by simply exposing it to sunlight. [Read the full story]
2. Bacterial nanowires conduct like metals
Adding a third electrode to the system turns a film of bacterial nanowires into a biological transistor that can be switched on and off by applying a voltage. [Read the full story]
3. Easy-to-produce black silicon could unlock promising applications
Uses for the light-absorbing material include more than just solar cells. Black silicon could improve the reliability of electrodes in battery systems and offer a platform for highly sensitive and fast-acting chemical sensors. [Read the full story]
4. Disappearing act: concealment using transparent carbon nanotube sheets
Modulating the temperature of highly oriented multi-walled carbon nanotube sheets (MWCNT), drawn from the sidewall of a 300–350 µm tall MWCNT forest, gives a mirage-based cloaking effect. [Read the full story]
5. Nanowire arrays improve performance of thin-film solar cells
Scientists at the University of Kentucky, US, have developed two novel device configurations for thin-film CdS-CdTe solar cells, where the traditional CdS window layer is replaced by nanowires of CdS embedded in an aluminum oxide matrix or free standing. [Read the full story]

While THQ is going through an auction today to decide what happens with its various assets, one of those asset partners says that it is not part of the deal. Filing a formal complaint with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court of Delaware, South Park Digital Studios said that South Park: The Stick of Truth cannot be sold off to a new owner without the studio's approval, because of stipulations in the contract it signed with THQ.
That game is being developed by Obsidian Entertainment, but was to be published by THQ. South Park also says that it has the rights to buy the game back itself for the amount of money THQ has invested in the game, and that THQ still owes it $2,275,000.
In a response to the complaint, THQ told the court that it is working to resolve the issue with South Park Studios, but that certain rights can be sold without any approval. It also says that it does not owe the studio any money. You can read South Park's complaint here (PDF), and THQ's response here (PDF). We'll have more details on the THQ auction results when they become available.

Vim for TextMate Fans
A text editor is the programmer's lathe, but unlike traditional engineering we can have limitless tools. The question is: how much time do you have to learn about them all?
I've used vim a lot over the years, mainly because I spent a long time using Linux and it was there so I used it. The choice was obvious: vim or vi were on almost every machine I had access to, and worked excellently both locally and remotely. Once I'd learnt the basics I was set, I knew enough to get my work done.

maybe you should contact HTC and let them know
EDIT: maybe you should check the SHA-1 on /system/app/settings.apk and compare that to the updater-script
Hi, I also have this issue. How about if we copy /data/preload from the OTA.zip itself (after downloading)? or from an older OTA.zip
I tried that, but on a certain app, it says unexpected content... (e.g: HTCSoundRecorder.apk). Does the OTA check the apk MD5 or something?
I really want the OTA, because I can't S-OFF right now (firewater whelp, cpu rev 003). HTC__622, x.708 rom.
Hi, I require assistance. bought this used unit of M7 (normal edition) a few months back. Totally new to the Android scene before then.
It came with 4.4.2 and Sense 5.5, I had assumed it was untampered with and is fully stock.
Software version is 4.20.707.6, Asia WWE. CL308312 release keys (whatever that means)
kernel 3.4.10-g499e571
So when I had tried to update it via OTA to HTC Sense 6 (file size 666.06MB, what the.. Satan?)
I'd go through it for the first 30% and then it'd be in a red triangle with exclamation mark, which then made me press the volume and power button and got this:
showing that soundhound_freemium is missing, uhh...
It would then boot back normally and go back to the normal Sense 5.5. But I do want the Sense 6 badly and get this issue solved.
I was pretty dumbfounded with this issue as I am new to Android and everyone else is receiving their updates smoothly.
Now I choose not to proceed without the advice of XDA forumers, I wish to ask of what is the next step for me? I came across with the explanation that I'd need to do an RUU to get back to stock? Feeling pretty much dumber from that point on, there are so many RUU files around that I do not know which one I should be using? Any help on this is appreciated.
Steps done so far:
Factory reset from settings
Factory reset from recovery mode
Installing soundhound from Play Store (yea.. no difference)
Continuously attempting it at least 11 to 13 times, still the same thing over again.
BTW: I seem to be getting the app called WeChat every time I reset my phone, I wonder why... I know it's a messaging app but didn't know it'd come with the phone pre-loaded.. uh..
oh and oh, apart from OTA, any other way for me to install it from PC or something? I remember being able to update via iTunes instead of OTA for a newer version of iOS, although of course that was iOS, just wondering if it were possible for the Android as well. Hmm.. oh well
I would really appreciate all the help I can get, really want the Sense 6 UI to test, thank you very much!
Install odexed zip in twrp will fix 100%
EDIT: added bootloader image
i have exactly the same issue. mine was cid 332. latin american m7 htc one sense5.5 hboot 1.56
on update to sense 6 its stuck on 30 % with red triangle. once open their is message preload not found tunein.apk missing.
after 1.5 month the update available for my cid but cant install it. i unlock by htcdev but still s-on and not rooted. i reset factory setting from recovery \ bootloader \ phone and problem still the same.i dont want custom ROM
i check with local htc. they told me to check with america HTC help line as my phone is from american region. i dont know why i got latin american region phone in middle east. thanks to online store. HTC American region just waste my days and after all the serial and model detail they told me since you are in middle east visit their branch in Qatar. how i should visit qatar for fixing phone to get sense 6?
well check in dubai service center they told me that motherboard need to replace cost 40% of phone. since i unlock by htc itself i still need to pay for 3 month used device.
i am exhausted.

Some Florida History According To Wikipedia:
Archaeological research indicates that Florida had been inhabited for thousands of years before any European settlements. Of the many indigenous peoples, the largest known were the Ais, the Apalachee, the Calusa, the Timucua and the Tocobago tribes.
"Florida" is the oldest surviving European place-name in the U.S. Juan Ponce de León, a Spanish conquistador, named Florida in honor of his discovery of the land on the evening April 2, 1513, six days after Easter and still during Pascua Florida, a Spanish term for the "Flowery Easter" season, and for the land's appearance as a "flowered land."
"It was named for these two reasons." (Juan Ponce de León may not have been the first European to reach Florida; according to one report, at least one indigenous tribesman who he encountered in Florida in 1513 spoke Spanish.) From that date forward, the land became known as "La Florida," although after 1630 Tegesta (after the Tequesta tribe) was throughout the 1700s an alternate name of choice for the Florida peninsula following publication of a map by the Dutch cartographer Hessel Gerritsz in Joannes de Laet's History of the New World.

I'm not able to find the bulk account provisioning option on Web Admin Panel.
This feature was removed on version 7Beta2?
Bug 50790 – Remove "Bulk Provisioning" button from Account List view
Thanks Bill.
Then I can not import and create accounts using a csv?
A solution is not specified in the Bug.
Let me know.
You can import them from another server or an xml file (amongst other options) using the wizard.
How to import from an XML file? What is XML format required? I can't find any info on this..Used to do it through the admin page. Thanks
Anything on this bulk provisioning?
Any update on this?
such a good feature thrown away .. how sad
Bug 43543 – Bulk Provisioning - Include option of yes/no for password change upon first login
You can also take a look at some of the fixed and outstanding bug reports, if you like. Bugzilla and the Product Portal are always a good starting place to search for changes to Zimbra.
The new account migration wizrad is great if you want to pull from exchange or another zimbra. almost a complete waste if you create a new domain and need to create 100+ email accounts. Sure you can mess around with xml import, but even that is for migration from one server to another.
What this means is instead of getting a low level employee with basic access and spreadsheet skills to create my 100+ accounts. I now have to get one of the engineers to play with scripts and command line provisioning on the server.
A waste of the engineers time IMO, and the low level employee has nothing to do in the meanwhile

Our Blog: 1951 NL Pennant Race
1951 NL Pennant Race - June 30. Giants and Dodgers in separate slugfests
Posted by Ken Revis at 7:52 AM on June 30, 2011
The 1951 National League pennant race was perhaps the most famous one of all, and culminated with the Shot Heard 'Round the World, the famous Bobby Thomson home run. We are posting a daily blog, exactly one year to the day, on what is now the 60th anniversary of each game.
June 30:
The Giants were idle yesterday, but the Dodgers lost to the Phillies. This reduced their lead over New York to 4 games. The Dodgers face the Phillies again today at home. The Giants face the Braves in Boston. Here is how the two teams stand as play begins.
Dodgers 14, Phillies 8
The Dodgers and Phillies engage in a shootout today before only 8,096 fans on a Saturday afternoon in Ebbets Field. The Dodgers score 7 runs in the 4th inning, driven partially by Duke Snider's 17th home run of the year, with 2 men aboard. Bubba Church, who starts the game for the Phillies and gets the loss, his 4th against 8 wins, is removed in the 4th inning after Snider's home run. Milo Candini comes in to relieve Church, but gives up 4 runs, 2 of them earned, on 3 hits. He gets only 1 man out and is relieved by Bob Miller. Miller pitches hitless ball for 1 2/3 innings. Ken Johnson finishes up for the Phillies, pitching 3 innings and giving up 1 run on 2 hits. Johnny Schmitz starts for Brooklyn, lasting only 3 innings, and gives up 4 runs on 6 hits. Carl Erskine finishes up and gets the win, his 7th of the year. He gives up 4 runs, 3 earned, in 6 innings pitched. Amazingly enough, Snider's is the only home run for the Dodgers. 5 of the Dodger runs are unearned on 5 Phillies' errors. Other than Snider's 3 RBI's, Rocky Bridges knocks in 3 for Brooklyn. For Philadelphia, Willie Jones goes 3 for 5 and hits his 15th home run of the year, with 1 man on, in the 1st inning. He also has 3 RBI's in the game. In addition to the Phillies' errors, the Dodgers commit 2 of their own. See Game
Braves 19, Giants 7
The Dodgers and Phils weren't the only team to engage in a slugfest today. The Braves and Giants have one of their own In a Saturday night game at Boston's Braves Field, before 10,812 fans. The Braves, losing 7 to 4 after 6 innings, score 8 in the 7th and 7 in the 8th. For the Braves, Vern Bickford gets the win, his 9th of the year against 7 losses, going 7 innings and giving up 7 runs on 7 hits. Max Surkont gets the save, his 1st of the year. For the Dodgers, Sal Maglie goes 6 innings and gives up 9 runs on 8 hits, getting his 4th loss of the year against 12 wins. Sheldon Jones relieves Maglie and goes 2/3 of an inning, giving up 3 runs on 4 hits. Dave Koslo goes 1/3 of an inning, giving up 0 runs on 1 hit. Al Gettel pitches the 8th inning and gives up 7 runs, 4 of them earned, on 5 hits. For the Braves, Earl Torgeson has 2 home runs, one a grand slam and the other with 2 men aboard. Also for the Braves, Sid Gordon is 3 for 6, including his 13th home run with 1 man aboard. Boston's Roy Hartsfield has 4 hits in the game. Whitey Lockman is 3 for 4 in the game for New York. The Giants have 4 errors, the Braves 2. 6 of the Giants' 7 runs are unearned. 3 of the Braves' runs are unearned. See Game
Tomorrow: Newcombe goes for Dodgers. Giants face Spahn.

I grew up in Upstate NY and used to work in Canandaigua. I had good friends in Penn Yan and love the Finger Lakes region. Your farm looks beautiful and I can\'t wait to receive, see, and touch your flowers.
The life you are living is the one I want to live in my next lifetime.
I think this is a GREAT site and SO much cheaper than buying the flowers in the city. I will tell everyone I know!
THAT IS SO FANTASTIC! Thank you so much for going the "extra mile." I was stupid to wait so long and next time I order (which I most definitely will) and will be sure to do it in a more timely fashion. Thanks again so much for your extra effort.
Have a wonderful Christmas!
Received the beautiful wreath today - with time to spare!!
I received my order today, thank you!! It is absolutely beautiful...exceeded my expectations!
The two wreaths are absolutely gorgeous.
I am so pleased !
I'm so excited I found your webpage - you have great design, pictures and search options. I'm looking forward to making wreaths for Christmas!
Just wanted to let you know the flowers are BEAUTIFUL!!! I have never seen cockscomb in person! They are unreal!!! I just love them!
Thanks so much!
Beautiful flowers!
Thank you the last order was wonderful!
The pics of your flower farm are beautiful.All of your flowers look great on your website, can't wait to see them. Thanks and have a happy thanksgiving.
The product that you send a few weeks ago were wonderful. Thanks for such a high quality product.
I recently selected your flower farm to purchase dried flowers for fall wreaths and arrangements. Just wanted to tell you how very pleased I was with our first order.

Best Answer REVflyer, 10 March 2011 - 03:51 AM
The B-Series Pro standard (sail built as an SUL) is the finest product REV has ever had their name on, at least in my limited experience.
It is worth the price, worth the waiting time after ordering and the practice hours (if you haven't got 'em already) necessary to appreciate Bazzer's superior craftsmanship!
A couple of sets of frames, line set lengths and this kite = any inland flier having a decade's worth of fun in hand, all for a few hundred bucks.
Do you need this "ride"?, heck no! Will you enjoy it? ABSOLUTELY
The difference between the B-Series & the Pro?
It is the difference between a manufacturing line's steel knife and a hand-forged masterpiece Damascus steel blade. Both cut just fine, but one makes itself a part of your Chi! Go to the full post

I have also used the 5mm Pentax XO on many occasions and confirm that it marginally outpoints the 5mm Pentax XW, under the very best observing conditions, in a premium telescope. However, I came to the conclusion that on the basis the performance gain was very marginal and the Pentax XW was infinitely more comfortable to use for long observing sessions, there was no place in my eyepiece case for a 5mm Pentax XO. In fact after a 2 hour lunar / planetary observing I have no doubt I am seeing more in the 5mm Pentax XW, or 6mm Delos, than I would be seeing in a 5mm Pentax XO due to eye fatigue and strain.
Excellent points!


text: Teaser: The mature experienced racer can improveMy 11th Columbia Tri. It's our neighborhood triathlon. I trained a lot this year so I felt good. Up at 4:15 had a prerace oatmeal with blueberries scrambled egg, hot tea. Dropped a Hammer fizz in a bottle of water and sipped that right up to the start. It was chilly. Got to the race with Rob my best supporter. Big tradition Winnie McCullogh, Suzy Serpico's mom body marks me. We went to high school together. She's my good luck charm. I've done this race so many times. pump tires, set up, take pump to Rob, promptly lose swim cap. Also lost Body Glide but had an extra. We went over to the start and I mainly stayed by the Team Fight Tent. Saw lots of Team Fight folks and MMTCers and we were all encouraging each other. Ate one gel before the swim. Waited for my wave with my bud Mindy.The usual butterflies. Lots of my friends have aged up into the W-45+ wave. Got right in the water and swam right away before the start. We went off and as usual I found it a little hard to breathe at first but this time the wetsuit seemed tight around my neck. I don't panic so I just kept on swimming. The sun sighting was brutal. Could not see the buoy. I didn't know like others that the buoys were set differently from the other 10 times. Say what? But finally I saw the turn buoy and felt better about where I was going. Next race I'll take a look at the buoys! After the turn I felt good. Did the mile swim the week before and was close to 35:00 so I had goal of going under 35. Goal achieved Bob Bartola there to greet me.Swim 34:46T1 3:49 Also an improvement. We were in K row so it was a slog up with the bike. T-2 better than last year. I also ran in the whole way.No sox no gloves. just strip the wetsuit and go. Not a shoe in the clips person just calmly sat down and put them on. Bike 1:36:52 15.8 paceA shocker. I believe this was my best bike time in 11 Columbias. I had just had the custom fit from Stoney at Princeton. What a difference. I felt sooo comfortable. I know this course so well having ridden it countless times. Never felt as good as I did on Sunday. I had passed TFighter Marla on 108 but she almost caught up to me on the first hill. I heard her yell Sue don't let me catch you so I just turned on the afterburners and never saw her till afterwards! Thanks Marla. At the resevoir hill just rode right up. Saw my buddies Sally and Paul who live on the course. They was cheering us on. We got slowed done right around St Anthony'e by some cars that were driving really slow. They were held up at the roundabout. I didn't have to brake but I know I lost some momentum there. The rest of the bike was uneventful. I did not know at the time that this was a bike PR for me.Gatorade and two Hammer gels on the bike.T2 2:08 Also much better than last year Shoes on grabbed visor, gels, and endurolytes and sped out.The RUN Always hard for me but I've taken heart knowing that everyone has trouble on the hills of Columbia. I ran up the switchback lovingly dubbed by me heartbreak hill. Ran as much as I could and walked when I had to. I was a bit demoralized when an age grouper passed me at the three mile mark on the run but i said to myself I'm a triathlete I'm tough Im gonna keep going and let the chips fall where they may. Cathy SooHoo from New York had just aged up. I felt strong after gatorade hill (Hi Jackie!) so much encouragement from TF and MMTCers. Got up that last little nasty finisher's hill and was greeted by Michelle and a sea of yellow team fighters as I raced on in. My first coach Patti Harden was there at the finish line. and lo and behold Lizzy Cowan my daughter was right behind me and they announced it! wow what a perfect moment.One of my better runs 1:12:53 11:45 pace.Good enough to snag 5th place. Fortunately I age up next year. oh great my main competition are both Ironmen. Marge Burley has done Kona a number of times. I'll just have to work harder. IMLP here we come!! Thanks to both MMTC and Team Fight for all the comraderie and just plain fun.

ATLANTA – State Sen. Tim Golden (R-Valdosta) has introduced legislation that would establish a state commission to review existing and future health insurance benefit and provider mandates that are imposed on Georgia's small businesses.
"Repeatedly over the past several years, legislation has been introduced requiring additional mandated benefits that drive up the cost of health insurance," said Golden, secretary of the Senate Insurance Committee and chair of its Subcommittee on Life, Health & Workers Compensation. "My legislation provides a process for taking a closer look at these mandates and the impact they will have on Georgia businesses and their employees and advising the governor and General Assembly as to which existing mandates should be continued and which new proposals should be enacted."
Under SB 17, the Special Advisory Commission on Mandated Health Insurance Benefits would be comprised of 15 members and three ex-officio members, including representatives from the medical, business and insurance communities and the general public. The commission would work with the Department of Insurance to collect data and assess the impact of mandated benefits and providers, including costs to employers and insurers, effectiveness of treatment, costs savings in the health care system and other factors.
The legislation calls for the commission to evaluate existing mandated benefits and providers and report its findings to the General Assembly by Dec. 31, 2012, and conduct a similar assessment of all health insurance mandates proposed in the future.
"Members of the National Federation of Independent Business have listed health insurance as their No. 1 problem every year since 1986," Golden said. "On average, small businesses pay 18 percent more for health insurance coverage than large businesses. The insurance mandate legislation regularly considered by Georgia lawmakers, applying only to small group and individual plans, further increases the costs that small businesses must pay to provide insurance."
Georgia Chamber of Commerce Senior Vice President David A. Raynor said, "Even a 1 percent increase in health care costs can impact an employer's decision to offer this important benefit to their employees and drive even more Georgians onto the rolls of the uninsured. Insurance mandates add costs that our state's businesses simply cannot afford."
Golden concluded, "Many individuals and small businesses simply cannot obtain affordable coverage, which results in increased costs to Georgia taxpayers under the Medicaid or Peach Care for Kids programs."

I'm totally loving this Gigaom article by Stacey Higgenbotham:
Since the magical breakout of Twitter in 2007 and the Foursquare success of 2009, SXSW has become more and more cluttered with startups trying to break out. It has also become a celebration of startups in general. However, that celebration has turned into a fetish — placing the act of creating a startup on a pedestal without casting any sort of critical eye on the quality or likelihood of that startup or idea succeeding.
[…] But amid the hundreds of startups launching, pitching, forming or otherwise trying to break out at SXSW, how many of them are real businesses? How many of them are thought out beyond a scrawl on a napkin, or a quick debate ahead of a startup weekend?
[…] The thousands of startups today that are pitching themselves at app competitions or in industry conferences all seem to think being a startup is enough. That daring to come up with some idea, any idea, and build a beta site is enough. That the users will come and then the business model will come and then the money will come. Google, Facebook and Twitter are their icons. Somehow the act of creating a startup has become the goal instead of the building of a business.
[…] My issue is less with those littering the web with launch pages — if people want to take some time to test out a web site idea in their spare time, that's far better than watching Two and Half Men reruns — but with the media, the venture firms and the ecosystem that has been built up to worship this idea of a startup. Maybe a little less fawning in the coverage and a little more skepticism is needed.
I quoted a little more than I wanted to here but there's so many good lines – read the whole thing. An "the emperor has no clothes moment"? Remember, the characters in Neil Stephenson novels — if that's the life you're trying to recreate — actually had business plans and actually tried to execute them.
