This weekend marks the 10th anniversary of one of the most infamous days in our nation's history.
September 11, 2001.
It is one of those moments that you can remember.
I bet you know where you were.
What you were doing.
What your reaction was.
We had just purchased our home. I was getting in the shower for work. We watched the 2nd plane fly into the towers live on GMA. I didn't make it into work until well after lunch, and no one noticed.
That day changed our world. Soon after the horrific events of that day, some co-workers and I went to a special concert and memorial featuring The Mormon Tabernacle Choir. I sobbed like a baby. Particularly when they sang "Bring Him Home" from Les Miserables.
And when they sang America the Beautiful, and sang about the cities "undimmed by human tears" it was too much for me to take. I was overwhelmed with sadness.
September 11, 2001 changed my life. And not because I was there, or I personally knew someone who was.
But because those were images that I didn't want burned into my memory forever.
Those were actions that I didn't want to know humanity was capable of.
That was a level of uncertainty that I didn't like feeling.
And because I had never seen Dan Rather at a loss for words. And it was completely unnerving.
Mostly, my poor little heart turned 7 years old again.
As I put myself in the place of all those children.
Who said goodbye to their Daddies that morning.
Only to have that be the last time.
I've been there.
And it's heart wrenching to know EXACTLY how that feels.
As the days went on, my sadness was changed.
I have never before, and never since, felt the amount of unity that was experienced by humankind following that day.
I felt like people said "Hi" on the street.
People put flags on their cars.
People wore flags on their clothes.
People gave of their time, and their money.
The government bound together and worked swiftly to do what was best for the country.
It was actually almost magical.
Images like this one, while heart-breaking, brought up emotions of pride and resolve.
We all agreed that we would watch out for our brothers. That we wouldn't let this happen again.
It's a unity that I miss.
As 10 years have passed. A LOT has happened in my life.
On 9.11.01 I didn't even have kids yet.
But one thing hasn't changed. My yearning for unity.
I knew I really wanted to do something to commemorate this anniversary.
I have been faithfully watching the Documentary "Rising" on the Discovery Channel. If you have a chance I HIGHLY recommend it. It's a documentary showing the people involved with the rebuilding of Ground Zero. I have been utterly inspired by their dedication. The memorial is beautiful. And it's on my short list to visit in the near future.
I also decided that it would help me to design something to remember the anniversary. Here's what I came up with.
It's inspired by Abraham Lincoln's speech about "A House Divided" in 1858 at the Illinois Republican National convention.
I love that speech.
Not quite as much as I love The Gettysburg Address. But close.
Click on the arrow with a line under it…in the above window. Just press it, and the image file should download right to your computer! Easy Peezy!

I am planning on viewing the Special 9/11 Concert given by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and narrated by Tom Brokaw. Airing on Sunday the 11th. I can guarantee it will be amazing. Without question.
I hope you spend at least a moment this weekend to remember that day.
Remember those who innocently lost their lives.
Remember those who willingly gave their lives in an attempt to save the innocent.
Remember those who bravely sacrificed their lives in order to avoid more destruction.
Remember those who don't have a Daddy today.
Remember those who miss their Mommy, or Spouse, or Aunt, or Sister, or Son.
And pray for our world.
That we may find unity through understanding and peace.
After all, we are all children of a Heavenly Father who loves us, and wants nothing more than to have us live in harmony with one another.
Never Forget.

Sir Anthony Hopkins will receive the Cecil B. DeMille Award for lifetime achievement at the 63rd annual Golden Globe Awards, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association said Wednesday. Nominated for six Golden Globes since 1978, Hopkins is arguably the greatest living film actor, said Philip Berk, president of the press association. "It's a choice I am particularly proud of," Berk said. "It's an honor to us as well as to him." Associated Press reports.

We've seen handful of parodies emerge over the past few months for the Best Picture nominees, mostly focused on "Gravity" and "Her," but one of the more curious sorta-memes being generated in the last little while revolved around "The Wolf Of Wall Street." You may have noticed "The Worf Of Wall Street" posters floating around the with Michael Dorn as Worf from "Star Trek: The Next Generation" and "Deep Space Nine" replacing Leonardo DiCaprio's Jordan Belfort. It's amazing what one change of a noun can accomplish.
Indeed, it has been taken one step further with the creation of "The Worf Of Starfleet," a full blown trailer parody that is all Worf all the time and kind of amazing. If you ever wanted to know what 'Wall Street' might look like with Worf's perma-anger replacing Belfort's perma-coke-snorting, here you go. Watch below. [AV Club]

Users are the weak link in the security chain? I would not have guessed.
I'm sure it's a very insightful article, but it's a rehash of the past 20 years of industry experience. Granted I was only 6 years old 20 years ago, but by 12 (first time I'd encountered networked computers) I could tell you that ultimately, users are stupid and will cause you problems.

French Law
Ask a French Law Question, Get an Answer ASAP!
No I will wait thanks.
Sorry not to reply, I am waiting for the person I was talking about to react to your comment. Ben H
My friend has asked the following:
Her reply is:
Yes, the Cour de Cassation was seized within 2 months of the Cour d'Appel's decision. A specialist Cour de Cassation avocat was contacted and he accepted our Case. Our application for legal aid was rejected because the Bureau d'Aide stated that we did not submit the necessary documents for assessment. We did submit the documents and they were posted LRAR, the receipts were received by us. We heard nothing for over two years, although we have recently been informed that our avocat and the specialist avocat were both informed in July 2010 that our application had been rejected and we were out of time. We were not so informed. A letter was sent to the house in dispute, where we cannot live, at the end of October 2012; the letter was sent by the Bureau d'Aide and they invited us to reapply for legal aid. That letter did not reach us until February 2013, it had been forwarded to us by a neighbour in the village where our house is located. Our friend, who speaks fluent French, telephoned the Bureau d'Aide immediately and was told we had requested to reapply. We had not, we did not know until that point that our original application had been rejected in July 2010. The clerk told our friend we had not submitted any necessary documents, LRAR envelopes are not proof of contents. Our friend told the clerk we had submitted all necessary documents. The clerk became very angry, she shouted at our friend that we were out of time and she then disconnected the call.
My friend has this last question please -
"My question was (is!) are we out of time to file at the EUCJ? A straight forward yes or no would give us our next steps."

I personally don't think its a big deal as long as the client piece stays. If that was to go, then I would be very disappointed!!!
Open fire is more robust anyways and comes at the same price. If I can have Open fire on the back-end and keep the client piece, it is really the best of both worlds in my opinion.
Check it out..
Ignite Realtime: Openfire Server
Well....i guess us majority who would like to keep this feature intact, don't have any say. It just drives me crazy Zimbra took their time and resources to install new modules like social networking which I find very counterproductive. Please at least keep command option for users to ENABLE IT.
Who knows here how I can plead my case to Zimbra in order for them to keep Internal IM. My users and I utilize IM everyday and makes everything so much easier to get things done under one platform….Please ZIMBRA…. Zimbra users come out and show full support for Internal IM to stay. We want INTERNAL IM to stay in zimbra

Bug 45932 – Remove IM server - you're too late, it's gone.
Does the IM server in 7 have the ability to manage shared groups, etc? If so, where can I find docs? If not, I guess I need to look at Openfire...
Release 7.1.4_GA_2555.UBUNTU8_64 UBUNTU8_64 NETWORK edition, Patch 7.1.4_P1
You're right, I should look at Openfire or similar...
What we really need though is a client that can be locked down for certain classes of users. Otherwise our students would be chatting all day long... (we block facebook during the day).
Release 7.1.4_GA_2555.UBUNTU8_64 UBUNTU8_64 NETWORK edition, Patch 7.1.4_P1
Openfire looks like a good option for us as an XMPP server, provided we can get SSO to work. Is there any way to get the ZCS7 IM client to use an external XMPP server?
Any recommendations on a lightweight windows XMPP client if we can't use ZCS7 for now?

A little bit of statistics…
According to JiWire Mobile Audience Insights Report, here is what people think about purchasing a tablet:
Forrester Research analyst Frank Gillet believes that tablets will become the most users' primary computer device by 2016, when 375 million tablets sold will go to business users. Compared to 2011, the total tablet sales were about 56 million.
With that said, it's obvious that more and more people are looking for products and services online with their mobile devices. If you own a website, but it's without mobile version, ask yourself: "What will mobile users see on their tablets and smartphones: a fully functional website or the one that needs to be hardly scrolled horizontally and vertically, taking 60 or more seconds to load and looking jumbled and confused as they are squashed onto smaller screens?" If the answer is not in your website's favor, maybe it's time to create a mobile version or even think about a new functional design with mobile version.
Do we have a solution for you? Yes, of course!
Our friends from MotoCMS.com have recently made a really cool thing by embedding an advanced Mobile Editor in Moto CMS. Now it's become possible for the existing users to build mobile-friendly versions of their Moto CMS based websites. As for new users, they now have an opportunity to build a mobile-friendly website really easy, without getting into coding.
It is really convenient, because you don't need to think about coding. MotoCMS Mobile Editor allows you to edit your mobile website right in your browser and see everything you are producing at once. Moto CMS is the system with mostly intuitive navigation; even if you have no programming knowledge and your computer skills are basic, you will easily be able to create and then edit a website with mobile version alone, without a professional's help.
The new Mobile Editor's control panel has a default stretchable HTML template, which is 620px wide and contains one page and one pop-up. Each of the template's elements can be modified to the owner's liking.
The new Mobile control panel contains a bunch of handy widgets for easy website creation: Contact Form, Gallery Widget, HTML Widget, Rich Content Widget and Google Maps Widget.
A new option "Style" is available within the new control panel. You can set the options for any object of your mobile website: choose color or an image for the background and the stroke settings.
A special thrill of MotoCMS based websites is the combination of main and mobile versions along with easy editing via the control panel. Very few content management systems can boast such a bunch of options and high functionality. You are welcome to take a look at our collection of MotoCMS Flash Templates.
Every day thousands of people are releasing mobile versions for their websites and observing greatly increased levels of traffic. Ignoring the fact that optimizing your website for mobile devices is important means being left behind by the competition. Perhaps, it sounds like a daunting task to create a mobile-friendly version for your website, but with a good builder it may turn into an exciting experience.
Think about it… As mobile devices and tablets continue to win the world, and the mobile workforce increases, a mobile website is going to become a vital feature for many companies.

Crazy idea, not sure if I can validate it.
How about a commercial airliner with the engines in the wing.
Not hanging from the wing but being part of the wing. This will greatly reduce drag and therefore, make the plane faster and more fuel efficient.
This new concept plane is not a flying wing like the Blended-Wing-Body. Instead it is like a B737/A320 or B777/A330 with the engine inside the wing like the Vulcan for example.
Because of size the airplane can have 2 or 4 or 6 engines.

To the people who work Telltale games, I would like to say this. My two brothers and my parents haven't played any of your games, but all of that changed when they I got Puzzle agent for them. They enjoyed the storytelling, and they were in for a ride. Now aside from them being very excited about Puzzle agent 2, I have a few questions regarding on Puzzle agent. That they would like answers to(I'm doing them a favor since that they dont go onto online forums)

Outdoor Summer Activities
Navy Pier
This family-favorite attraction is actually one of Chicago's most visited places in the entire city, so it's definitely worth checking out if you haven't been before.
Stroll the pier and soak up the atmosphere for free, or spend a few bucks to ride the Navy Pier rides, (like the 150 foot tall Ferris Wheel), play a round of mini golf at 'The Links', or explore the Chicago Children's Museum.
For those looking for the ultimate dining and shopping experience, this is definitely the place for you. With over 30 shops and plenty of restaurants including the famous Landshark Beer Garden, there is something for everyone at Navy Pier.
Check out their spectacular fireworks display that is going on all summer long. The fireworks display can be seen every Wednesday night at 9:30 and Saturdays at 10:15 beginning in late May and continuing through early September, with a special display for July 4th.
Architecture River Cruise
A number of cruises and tours depart from Navy Pier if you're looking to enjoy summer with a bit of time out on the water. It's a festive environment and one definitely worth checking out during the nicest weather of the year. The tour provides an exciting journey through the history of Chicago, featuring architectural sites that attribute to the tales.
Along the Chicago River, you'll hear the dramatic story of Chicago's rise from the ashes of the Great Fire of 1871 to become the home of the skyscraper. You'll learn about the many world-famous architects who built this skyline from the ground up.
Rent a Bike
What better way to enjoy the sights and the sun at the same time than with a Chicago bicycle tour? Bike and Roll Chicago offers no-hassle bike rentals to help you create your own eco-friendly tour of Chicago's streets and green spaces. With two convenient pick-up locations, it will be a breeze for you to explore Chicago on two wheels. A great family activity!
Ride north to Lincoln Park, with the Zoo and Chicago History Museum, or south to Grant Park and the Museum Campus. Stick to the lakefront to discover beaches, gardens, and lagoons, or head into the streets to see some of the city's most luxurious homes, cobblestone sidewalks, and beautiful parks.
Brookfield Zoo
Animal lovers won't want to miss Chicagoland's biggest zoo. It has a wide variety of species both domestic and exotic, including some rare exhibits like the "Great Bear Wilderness," which features grizzlies, polar bears, and more.
This summer, they're introducing a fantastic lineup of new events, exhibits, and animal performances. A new bird show entitled "Festival of Flight" (running now through September 7) features more than 20 different species of birds engaging in exhilarating natural behaviors. The 3-acre "Wild Encounters" exhibit offers opportunities to feed, pet, and otherwise interact with a diversity of creatures from red pandas to wallabies.
Hit the Beaches
Located on the shores of Lake Michigan, Chicago is home to many beautiful beaches with bright blue waters that stretch so far you may catch yourself wondering when you got to the ocean! Oak Street Beach is a stone's throw from the magnificent mile and is an extremely popular people-watching venue.
If you want to get a little bit of a summer tan while lounging by the water, there's no need to book a hotel with a pool. Head to Oak Street Beach (or any of the other lakefront beaches in Chicago) for a chance to enjoy the sun, sand, and surf at one of the country's largest lakes.
Oak Street Beach also features a fun restaurant and bathrooms for your convenience, so make an entire afternoon of it! There's even a nice lakefront trail for those of you who enjoy a long walk or a beachside run.
North Avenue Beach is the busiest in Chicago and is a great place for people of all ages. There are plenty of volleyball courts as well as shops, concessions, and a full service restaurant. If you're planning on driving be sure to get there early as parking fills up fast, this beach is also accessible by public transportation.
Millennium Park
Millennium Park is one of Chicago's newest and most popular destinations. Since it's opening in 2004, this 24.5 acre park has been host to millions of visitors from around the world, and it's no wonder why.
The award-winning architecture and landscape design make it a unique destination, not to mention the over 500 free events that the park holds every year! Millennium Park offers both a concessions tent as well as a full-service restaurant, Park Grill. The park is open from 6:00 am until 11:00 pm daily and admission is free.
Check out Lurie Garden, a delightful mini-garden that is a favorite among locals, especially kids. It's designed to be both aesthetically pleasing and educational, so it's a great stop for the whole family. If it's really hot, feel free to dip your feet in the shallow water. Bring a camera to this charming locale!
Lincoln Park
If you want to venture out of the immediate downtown area, be sure to check out the beautiful Lincoln Park, located just north of the Gold Coast neighborhood of Chicago, this park is full of fun, family-friendly activities everyone will love. With its 1,200 acres and abundance of activities, it's easy to spend an entire day in the Lincoln Park neighborhood.
Bring a picnic lunch and enjoy the warm summer air. The Lincoln Park Zoo (free!) is another welcome option, a surprisingly comprehensive collection of critters from around the world that offers free admission every day. Meet a few of your favored animals, then ride the endangered animals carousel and Children's train.
The zoo gets very crowded in the afternoon so be sure to get there early. While you're visiting, be sure to hit the Lincoln Park Conservatory and the Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum. And don't worry about hunger getting in the way of your trip, there are plenty of great restaurants to choose from in Lincoln Park.
Visit Wrigley Field
Whether you're a baseball fan or not, no visit to Chicago is complete without a stop at Wrigley Field.
Wrigley is the second oldest ballpark in America (behind Fenway Park), and the highly-recommended park tours are offered daily. For those visitors interested in catching a game, an afternoon spent watching the Cubs at Wrigley Field is sure to be a vacation highlight!
Splash Around Buckingham Fountain
Buckingham Fountain is one of the largest fountains in the world and one of Chicago's most popular attractions. The fountain runs from 8:00 am until 11:00 pm daily with a fantastic water display every hour on the hour.
Although the display runs all day, it is best seen after dusk at which time lights and music accompany the already amazing show. The fountain is located in Grant Park and is a must-see for first time visitors and residents alike!
Museums & Aquariums
Shedd Aquarium & Museum Campus
It may seem counterintuitive to seek to spend time indoors just as the weather's getting nice, but trust me, it's worth your time to pop into this top-tier aquarium for a few hours to explore the magical and wondrous creatures that inhabit their exhibits.
This summer, they're opening a brand new exhibit called "Amphibians" (ticketed separately) that features more than 40 species of frogs, salamanders and more. Don't forget about their classic touch tanks and popular Abbott Oceanarium.
Located right nearby and a part of Chicago's Museum Campus is the Field Museum and the Adler Planetarium. All of these stops should find their way onto your vacation itinerary.
The Art Institute of Chicago
This world-renowned art museum (voted the best museum in 2014 by Trip Advisor in an international poll) is a must-see for any arts and culture lover this summer.
While it offers exceptional programming year round, summer is a great time to take advantage of the family events calendar, which features special workshops and family gallery tours.
Home to some of the highest-quality works of art on Earth and its collection represents diverse artistic traditions from all over the world, from the famous Chagall windows to iconic paintings like "American Gothic" and "Paris Street, Rainy Day," you'll find so many instantly recognizable pieces and artifacts in this marvelous museum.

As directed by Dejan Sorak, the Croatian film Two Players from the Bench functions on a variety of levels. On one, it's a political document, examining the relations between Croats in Serbs in what once was Yugoslavia, exploring what their ethnicities really mean to individuals on both sides, and touching on the impact of the International War Crimes Tribunal on the post-war world. On another, it's a document about Croatia today, a country apparently made up of deserted roads, few jobs, little money, and the shells of public buildings, picked clear by scavengers. On yet another, it's a thriller, full of unexpected twists and hidden motivations. And, finally, it's a warm-hearted buddy movie in which a Croat and Serb learn not only to coexist, but also to rely on one another. Despite -- or maybe because of -- its many directions, the film is surprisingly satisfying and entertaining. Ante (Goran Navojec) a burly Croat and who looks and acts like a lost DeLuise, and Katran (Borko Peric) a scrawny, resigned Serb, couldn't be more different. When they find themselves locked in a room together, Ante, who has been told that he's there to help Colonel Skoko, a fictional Croatian war hero who is in hiding from the War Crimes Tribunal, explodes with rage, throwing himself against the metal door and shouting demands for his release. Katran, meanwhile, though he's handcuffed, and believes he's shortly going to have involuntary surgery to remove a kidney (he was sold by his best man, who is also sleeping with his wife), is quietly alert, but totally willing to accept his fate, whatever it may be.
When the two realize their units faced off during the war, and that Ante's nephew lost his life in a battle with Katran and his compatriots, the latter is completely calm, even when he truly believes that Ante is going to kill him. Whether it's the war, the disappointments of his life since then, or just his personality, Katran faces things with a strange serenity. He's not resigned, exactly, just unwilling to bother with anger, or histrionics. Even late in the film, when an totally unexpected, devastating twist is thrown his way, he responds not with anger, but with disappointment, as if he's sad, but not surprised, to have been let down yet again.
The ethnic tension between Katran and his loud, emotional roommate rapidly dissipates, and the two turn into friends and, in a way, teammates. They've been brought together, it turns out, by the Croatian secret service, because of their resemblance to a pair of missing Croats whose testimony can prove that Skoko didn't commit the massacre he is alleged to have perpetrated, and thus free him from the threat of prosecution. Offered €20,000 for their testimony, the duo throw caution (and, in Katran's case, ethnic loyalty) to the wind, and agree to undertake the task. Together, they set out to learn about their characters, and settle into a sweet, often comical friendship which, despite the fact that its lightness seems both inappropriate and a bit cheap in such a highly political context, is nevertheless appealing.
This lingering sense that the tone is somehow wrong continues through the film, because on can never quite get comfortable with deadly political realities being pushed aside in favor of a light-weight, not particularly well-acted buddy film. In addition, a female character is introduced whose primary characteristic is her need to greet strange men with blow-jobs; her mere presence is both unnecessary and indescribably objectionable. By rights, each of these things should be enough to damage the film beyond salvation, robbing it of most of its power and effectiveness. Somehow, however, they don't. Against all odds and despite it's own unevenness, Two Players from the Bench manages to be light and silly and political and suspenseful all and once. And though one leaves the theater thinking it wasn't anything particularly memorable, the movie sticks in your mind longer than you'd ever expect.

Never been much of a swimmer except in 24' round pool. I was a big time biker but the motor did most of the work. I have done 5 running races with a marathon being the longest. So here I am "Mr. Clueless". I bought a used 06 Serotta Fierte. Thats my first ever road bike. It has Ultegra components and seems to be in great condition. (Not that I know the difference) Anyway thank you for all the insight that is abundent from experienced cyclists on this site. I look forward to sharing stories and opinions.

Just over a week ago, Wellington bore the brunt of yet another southerly blast which brought lower temperatures to the New Zealand capital and massive ocean swells. I love days like that as I know Cook Strait will come to life in a dramatic way. One early afternoon, I spotted two surfers walking along the shore, at the southern end of Lyall Bay. They slowly started paddling against the current, eventually reaching an area where impressive waves would break. After a 45 minutes wait, the right wave, the perfect light and a lone surfer conjured up a spectacular scene of courage and raw power. Digital pigment prints of this picture are available here.

TAR Balls
|No Downloads yet? To be advised!
BigNoZePicks Demo Installation
1.1: Although a bunch of mates advise on project design and occasionally they also wade in and help test, I do the bulk of the work in my spare (?) time. This is called the IDEM! (I Do Everything Mate!) system of software development - so programming resources are very, very scarce.
Needs must when the devil drives - so a lot of stuff you may expect to see for a production system is not yet done and need never be. As at 1st March 2010 BigNoZePicks/Pickets/Bogey is only at alpha stage – and it was started over a few beers Australia Day 2008.
These installation notes refer to a typical LAMP installation - for context I have assumed the same as my development installation
Linux - Mandriva 2009.0
Apache 2.0 or newer- DocumentRoot=/var/www/html
MySQL 5.0 or newer
PHP 5.2.0 or newer
so substitute your own Operating System/Webserver paradigms.
1.2: While many programmers happily develop PHP with WAMP,XAMPP etc on Windows and MAMP on Macs - I don't. In fact I don't use Windows or Macs for anything.
Even so I gave the latest code a whirl on the latest XAMPP server
"We've released the new version of XAMPP 1.7.3, including:
* Apache 2.2.14 (IPv6 enabled) + OpenSSL 0.9.8l
* MySQL 5.1.41 + PBXT engine
and it kept giving errors. I have however run BigNoZePicks successfully on XAMPP version 1.6.0a and that's enough of that sort of stuff for me. If you are are PHP Windows developer – good luck.
1.3: BigNoZePicks uses PHP5 and the PDO PHP Data Objects to connect to either MySQL and/or SQLITE3. So if you don't have PDO for these 2 DBs included in your PHP5 installation you wont be able to run BigNoZePicks.
The database type and connection is located in ./includes/config.php and you can follow the comments in there to include your MySQL or SQLITE3 connection parameters.
In ./includes/config.php there is also provision for an ./includes/secretsql.php file for
additional/replacement parameters. That way if you update the code base your database connection parameters wont be lost.
The simplest installation (ie. accessing the SQLITE3 database ./bignozepicksdemo.sqlite3)
2.1: tar -xvf bignozepicksdemo.yyyy-mm-dd.tar
to the root directory of your Apache server
Then maybe first read through the SYSTEM GOTCHAS below.
2.2: Point Firefox to (other browsers may work - dont know - see IDEM in 1.1 above)
And the BigNoZePicks login screen should appear - login as
Member - demo2
Password - demo2
and start clicking.
The next simplest installation
2.3: Use your MySQL client to load the bignozepicksdemo database
and update your MySQL server connection parameters in ./includes/config.php
and do 2.2 above.
Here are some classic gotchas that will bust your BigNoZePicks installation. Most installation gotchas are paths and permissions – unless of course they are permissions and paths. The simplest way to solve permissions is to make all files and subdirectories writeable by Apache - eg.
chmod 777 -R /var/www/html/bignozepicksdemo
and I'd also recommend
chgrp apache -R /var/www/html/bignozepicksdemo
which is not so good for production systems – but we are only at Alpha/Demo – so there!
3.1: BigNoZePicks uses Smarty templates - so Apache needs permission to write to
3.2: BigNoZePicks use FPDF to create PDF files and Apache needs permission to writes to
3.3: ./test.png holds the batting wagonwheel graphic and needs to be writeable by Apache.
3.4: If you are using the SQLITE3 demo database you will may need to make the directory ./bignozepicksdemo Apache (ie. not just the database file ./bignozepicksdemo/bignozepicksdemo.sqlite3 itself but also the subdirectory ) . BigNoZePicks may appear to work okay - it just wont let you write back to the database? writeable by
3.5: If your PHP5 installation is using the suhosin extension (Hardened-PHP Project) you will need to expand the maximum number of $_POST variables. eg cricket.php uses well over 200 $_POST variables which is the default in Z##_sushosin.ini. Use phpinfo() to check your installation for suhosin.
Assuming you have managed to get the demo installation working - here are a few clues for the
programmers/sysadmins amongst you.
4.1: Program documentation is created using phpDocumentor and appears at
or via your Apache server at
4.2: The Help screens are also created via phpDocumentor - the source DocType files are in
and the HTML files produced by phpDocumentor in
4.3: The PHP programs appear in the main bignozepicksdemo directory (eg. ./golf.php) and if you
want to see the SQL calls and/or the SQL result sets there's two methods called
Set_show_sql() and Set_show_dumps()
at the top of each of PHP scripts. For each of the competition and tipster classes.
So if you go into ./golf.php and change
to $bout->Set_show_sql(!false)
You should see all the SQL calls made from the ./includes/competition.oop.php class .
4.4: The different Smarty templating for footy tipping comp versus cricket/golf scoring etc are driven by a global variable $BASE_SPORT.
By default if $BASE_SPORT is not set I check
for the occurrence of the string 'bogey' or 'pickets' in the URL.
See ./includes/stanvar.inc.php for this chunk of code.
So if you have extracted the demo to /var/www/html/bignozepicksdemo and want to see it run in
only cricket or golf mode - rename /var/www/html/bignozepicksdemo to something like
A better way to do this in Linux is use symbolic links eg.
cd /var/www/html
ln -s bignozepicksdemo bignozepicksdemobogey
ln -s bignozepicksdemo bignozepicksdemopickets
and then point your browser to
and the screens will be different for each of tipping/cricket/golf.
Good Luck!

var text="Z Test Yeah ! Z";
// With literal syntax, it returns true: good!
// But not with the RegExp object O_o
var reg=new RegExp('Z[\s\S]*?Z','g');
I don't understand why the literal syntax and the RegExp object don't give me the same result... The problem is that I have to use the RegExp object since I'll have some variables later.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance :)

Editor's note: This is the fifth in a series of stories profiling participating United Way member agencies and the work they do in the community. Because United Way services are provided on a confidential basis, names of the subjects of these case studies have been withheld.
For one Wheeling woman, leaving her abusive husband was not as easy as it seemed. She sought shelter at the Wheeling YWCA several times, but intimidation and charm kept leading her back to her old life.
Last year, after 17 years of indecision, she and her children and came to the YWCA for the last time. Thanks to the center's programs and support, she and her family will soon move into a new house built by Habitat for Humanity.
"The smallest things you do can help somebody," said Diana Bell, racial justice director at the YWCA. "It happens every day here."
The YWCA offers a range of programs to assist and empower women, children and even men.
Roxanne Reed, Women's Boutique director, said the boutique offers free clothing and interview training for women who receive a referral from the United Way Help Line, a social service agency, an employer, a school or a church. The boutique is open to the public 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Tuesday and 3-7 p.m. Thursday. Women can sort through gently used professional clothes or, for only a few dollars, purchase new gowns donated by Kaufmann's of Wheeling.
Bell said her department focuses on tobacco cessation and support for victims of domestic violence, but she targets the African-American, low-income population. The Racial Justice Program also handles the Martin Luther King Jr. Project on Racism Contest, a statewide student essay contest. Bell also provides diversity and anti-racism training for anyone who is interested.
The YWCA's Residence and Emergency Homeless Shelter has been serving the Wheeling area for 102 years. The Madden House, which is in an undisclosed location to protect its residents, has 18 beds and serves self-sufficient women. Director Lori Jones said she works with local homeless shelters and United Way agencies like the Salvation Army, Catholic Charities and Information Helpline to make sure women's needs are met.
"We've had people stay here a day or 26 years," Jones said.
The YWCA also provides transitional housing for victims of abuse. The Family Violence Prevention Program includes a confidential hotline, support groups, life skills classes, supervised visitation and exchanges, free 911 cell phones, advocacy and batterer's intervention. Some of the services, like support groups, classes and advocacy, are also offered to men.
"It's not just for women and children of domestic violence," Wood said. "It's for all victims of domestic violence."
Sometimes children of abuse are the ones who don't receive enough attention, but to represent the needs of children is the Court-Appointed Special Advocate program. When a child is removed from a home due to allegations of abuse or neglect, the judge appoints a CASA volunteer to review the child's case and express what action he or she feels would be in the child's best interest.
Thousands of people use the YWCA's services in a year, but CASA Director Susan Harrison said the center is indebted to other United Way agencies for referrals and working together to serve the needs of the Upper Ohio Valley.
"I think one thing important to the United Way is collaboration," she said.
"There are going to be people coming this year who never had to before," Jones added.
Volunteers are always welcome at the YWCA, and donations of money, furniture, household items, personal care items, appliances, pots and pans and gently used professional clothes are always needed. For more information about any of the YWCA's services, call 304-232-0511. The Family Violence Defense Program can be reached at any time at 800-698-1247.

I have a 500gb external harddrive which I use to play games and watch movies. However, I've noticed that every few minutes, my screen freezes up for like 10 seconds and the external goes crazy.
I need a cheap alternative to my harddrive. Currently, for movies, I load them up on an sd card and watch them from there, but I was wondering if the games will run well from them, as some of them are in excess of 10 gb.
Specifically, I need a cheap external datasource larger than 16gb which won't be affect performance of read intensive applications, preferably in the range of 40c per gig. It must also be portable since I will be carrying it in conjunction with my laptop and harddrive. Storing the applications on my laptop harddrive is not an option as it is filled with work and partitions.

What Do You Say to a Bank that Wonders Whether They Need an API?
The Axway Blog Team had a chance to catch up with Simon Redfern, CEO of the agile web/mobile agency TESOBE and founder of The Open Bank Project, and get a preview of his upcoming presentation at Axway's API management workshop in New York.
"The Open Bank Project is an open-sourced API and app score for banks that facilitates access to banking resources, starting with account-transaction data," said Redfern, "and it has interesting roots. I was thinking about corruption and fraud, and I thought about how bank accounts could be open for everyone to see. Banks would want to have an API to make the best use of the data. Basically the idea is that developers should be able to write apps to talk to banks much like they can write apps to talk to Google, Facebook, Twitter, and Amazon."
By giving developers this ability, the bank can leverage third-party innovations, quickly add new platforms and services, pick and choose which apps they like, brand them, make them available in their own app store, and offer more quality choices to their account holders.
"Customers benefit," said Redfern, "because they get access to a much greater range of niche applications. And the bank benefits because they can now start to monetize their data. They have greater visibility on which data is being used. Our solution, unlike others, actually re-intermediates the bank."
Other solutions take lots of data away from the bank, explained Redfern. But by putting an API on top of the bank, the bank remains the gatekeeper of authentication, which enhances the account holder's security. Again, the bank benefits, because the customer is incentivized to log in on a regular basis, thanks to the app.
So what, we asked Redfern, do you say to a bank that wonders whether they need an API?
"Very soon all organizations will realize that they need an API," said Redfern. "Banks are no different. Some banks do have APIs, but so far they are proprietary and hidden away, and not very open. Most banks really haven't embraced this kind of open-developer ecosystem.
"But that's what we're bringing. We're bringing a large community of developers who want to innovate in the financial space. Our API brings a pre-made data model that developers can rely on to get data out of any bank without having to rewrite their application every time. Developers can use our sandbox. They can test an app and then plug it into a real data feed. We make the application-development process friction-free."
And what sort of apps has Redfern been seeing?
"They range from business analytics apps to the first 'singing bank' app," he said. "It turns your bank account into a musical instrument. When money comes in, the app plays a high note, and when money goes out, a low note."
To learn more about how APIs enable a bank to operate as a platform and the role API management plays in that enablement, sign up for our May 15, 2014 workshop now!

And if you're going to run the sacrifice deck as BG, you could probably use Grim Backwoods too. Disciple of Bolas would be good.
Hm... I've been experimenting with lots of decks since I'm on my Summer break at last.
I've been testing MyrDrazi, a Dragon deck that relies on giving you a ton of Dragon's that can't attack, and a deck which only has one purpose - to make you draw thirty six cards in one turn by turn six.
Yeah, I decided to go through some of the unused/excess cards of mine and I found a Cephalid Constable (now one of my favorite cards), so I decided to try and make a deck focused around him. I came up with this:
Land (20)
4 Halimar Depths
16 Island
Creatures (10)
4 Cephalid Constable
3 Silver Myr
3 Myr Moonvessel
Other Spells (30)
2 Artful Dodge
3 Distortion Strike
2 Gitaxian Probe
3 Infiltrator's Magemark
4 Eel Umbra
2 Curiosity
4 Ponder
4 Vapor Snag
2 Boomerang
4 Mana Leak
The idea is to keep them at bay until you can get Cephalid Contable onto the field. Once he's unblockable and can attack (which is hopefully by turn 4), just smash away until your opponent can't put cards out fast enough and you can hit their lands back.
On the sideboard I have
3 Turn Aside
4 Mental Misstep
4 Spell Snare
2 Index
2 Ancestral Knowledge
Turn Aside, Mental Misstep, and Spell Snare are all insurance against burn and other counter/bounce decks. Ancestral Knowledge is a cheap attempt at a blue tutor.
Not to mention that 53/60 cards are commons.
pock pock pock
Got a BUNCH of older cards today. Lorwyn, Shadowmoor, Planar Choas, Future Sight are the themes of the boxes then there were cards as old as Revised. In total 6 boxes+a deck box with a cool mono-green deck that would be Legacy now. (Origanal Garruk Wildspeaker!!!).

Koolio. I got bored after playing Halo and was looking through those old cards I got and built a Sliver deck. Problem is....... No Enchantments, Instants, Sorcerys etc.etc. All creatures and Lands. So I plan to edit it later.
Ah, I have a similar story. I finished playing Halo today, and sorted all of my cards out (I've been playing since September so it isn't a massive expanse). I do have a slight problem. After boxing all of my commons, I have no room for the remainder of my mythics, rares and uncommons and foils. My basic land has nowhere to go, and my folder is already filled. And I have a box at my parents' house I need to go and get still...
So I made a 5-colour EDH with Scion as my general, 'cos why not?
I made a Sliver Overlord EDH Deck. You don't need a lot of Instants and Sorceries there, because Slivers add a lot of abilities to the battlefield very quickly. Removal, evasion, boost, etc. There are some enchantments and artifacts that really help though.
I'm thinking Sliver EDH with Sliver Legion as general but Idk. My friends and I play Magic on Xbox and I showed them Sliver cards because they didn't know them and they said they would be scared to play against a deck like that.
Sliver Overlord is the best Sliver General, because he's a Sliver tutor!!! You get a bunch of Slivers into play, then bring him, and then you can get basically whatever else you want from your deck, since once you can play the Overlord, you can play any other sliver, including Legion and Queen.
I don't have a copy of Overlord otherwise I'd use him.
You could try and run it with a temporary proxy, if it's only with friends - of course you'd need to get the card yourself soon, but then again, budgets are still difficult sometimes.
I can get the money. I have a bunch of cards I can sell no problem. It's finding one that is the problem he is an older card so it will be a bit more difficult to find him. I plan on checking the local card shop tomorrow.
I prefer not to buy stuff online. I will if I absolutley have to. I'll post the 1st version of my Legacy Sliver deck sometime later.
EDIT: If anybody would like to play some Magic on Xbox Duel of the Planeswalkers 2012 (dont have 2013 yet). Me and a friend have nothing to do and are wanting to play some games with somebody new. PM me on here or Xbox my account name is the3rdH0kage.

I'm working on a deck at the moment with Painter's Servant, Llawam, Cephalid Empress, Mana Maze, and Shifting Sky. I almost feel guilty doing it.
I really want to see more Cephalid cards introduced. They're easily one of my favorite tribes.
pock pock pock
So i started playing dules of the planes walker 2013 and have come to really like the goblin gangland deck. i saw the deck for sale at the store i work at, would the deck fare well playing with real people?
It's not the same deck.
The "Duels" deck uses cards from many different sets. It's essentially a Legacy Format deck, and it's actually...pretty good. It's only missing a few things the genuine Legacy Goblin deck would have.
The deck from Core 2013 is only made with 2013 cards.
Ok cool and if i got ahold of those cards from different sets would i be able to use them, or is there a regulation against using cads from different sets?
Yeah i looked into it and was amazed at how many formats there are. So is ther a standard variant of the Gg deck or do i needto look for something elses?
I run a Black/Red Goblin deck that is standard. I'll post the decklist along with my EDH Sliver decklist. But with Goblins I've found Krenko, Mob Boss is a freakin beast. I'm trying to get a playset of him. If you interested in playing a Goblin deck the 2013 Red/? (can't remeber what color) is pretty good. I saw somebody get it and not modify it before playing a won his first like 5 matches with it. But anyway I built a Black/red Goblin deck thats main focus is using Krenko to load the field then sacrifice all of the token and use Blood Artist to win.
Of course running a legacy level goblin deck will cost you a lot of money (some of those cards are 15 dollars), so I wouldn't recommend it as a good starting deck.
*casual usually involving no rules or custom rules
*unless you are playing with a group who isn't big on competitiveness or top tier decks. Like I said above, it helps to know about the kind of people you will regularly play against.

Watch me tumble stuff:
Krenko is probably the best Goblin Ive seen since I started playing.

For the first time in several years the judges had to stress one aspect of the rules: "The prize is not intended to cover pornographic or expressly erotic literature." Nevertheless, come the announcement of the shortlist, two types of article were written in profusion: one covered the whole "J K Rowling misses out on a Bad Sex nomination"; the other was much the same* except with another double-initialled author's name in place (not, before you think it, poor ol' J D Salinger). But I imagine it was fortunate for the judges that they'd ever put that rule in place - there was no requirement to consider the (de)merits of mummy porn, or to sift through the multiple sequels and spin-offs that such an erotic reading sensation has prompted. In short: Fifty Shades of Grey is erotica and thus disqualified from the Bad Sex in Fiction Award 2012 (or indeed in any other year). Phew. Literary Review's judging panel for the prize is spared from having to stand in judgement over that particular book. Who cares if the sex is well-written or not? It's there because the whole book's about that bondage malarkey. Take it away, and you'd be left with a rather sorry state of affairs indeed. It's essential - the book's raison d'être. That's not to say that sex chambers can't also find a place in literary fiction. The mention of a 'red room of pain' normally makes me think of Angela Carter's The Bloody Chamber. In that collection of stories, and in the titular story in particular, Carter examined sex and pain by reworking fairy and folk tales, looking at those earlier stories' emphasis on the loss of innocence as part of growing up. Sex is considered a necessary element to that; in Carter's stories, it is often violent and uninvited. And, it should be added, her sex scenes are also very well written - that is to say, good sex writing, due an award for 'Good Sex in Fiction' were such a thing to exist. It perfectly matches the timbre of Carter's prose elsewhere. Of course, there's no particular need for a 'Good Sex in Fiction Award'. The purpose of the Bad Sex Award is 'to draw attention to the crude, badly written, often perfunctory use of redundant passages of sexual description in the modern novel, and to discourage it.' Bad sex writing breaks the rhythm and fabric of a novel; it stifles with cliché or overwrought prose. Good sex writing, as with any good writing, need not necessarily astound or titillate to achieve its purpose. The Literary Review's 20th Bad Sex in Fiction Award winner will be announced at a ceremony on Tuesday 4 December. Get updates and excerpts from the entries by following Literary Review on Twitter.

If so, here are five tips drawn from my own experience doing it the last few years: 1. "How do I do that many words every day?" You don't have to. As long as you hit 50,000 on day 30, you're all gravy. If you fall behind one day, you're just going to have to catch up the next. But I warn you, that's a pretty horrid feeling. I don't recommend it. So ideally, you'll just keep plugging away when you can. And you'll soon realise you've got to let your inner editor hush up so you can simply get on with getting words out. 2. "But I need quiet and hours stretching undisturbed ahead of me to write. And the right kind of tea. And a cat curled upon my feet." Really? Really really? Nano might be just for you - it destroys that myth that writing can only be done in eight-hour, silent chunks with perfect weather conditions and liquid refreshment. It can be done in 30 minute sprints too, you know, or on the Tube, or quite wherever you fancy it. In this day and age, you could even write on your phone. (Your phone! I know!) Forget those strange requirements. 3. "But, I don't think it's for me." How do you know, unless you try? E L James's husband (think 50 Shades of Grey) tried out Nano, and he's a published crime writer now. Easy-peasy*. Plenty of well-known people get involved - I believe Neil Gaiman has; Sarah Morgan off the Twitter has. It's not for anyone in particular. You can make Nano work for you, rather than vice-verse. 4. "I want to write but I'm not a novelist." That's cool. Let's face it: 50,000 words isn't really a good length for a novel. 80k minimum, really. Maybe 60k at a push. Many are 100,000, or 150,000. So you know, Nanowrimo is stretching the 'novel' part of its name. To be honest, even that isn't that important: write 50,000 words of blank verse, or 20 short stories (I did, last year. They were about birds. Twit twoo, blue tits, and so on); use Nano to help your writing, to give you that push to get on with it, rather than waiting for it to get... on with... you. (That's not a thing, is it?) 5. "What if I don't like what I've written?" Learn from it: where did it go wrong? Did you write the first thing you thought of, just to hit that target? Was there a scene you now loathe? You can edit if you want to; heck, you can delete anything you want. You control the words, not the words you. Don't fret it - writing at speed can create a whole load of bullshit and too few gems. But at least you're giving yourself the opportunity to write the gems, rather than just not writing at all. That's my closing thought: you fancy you have that book in you? Give yourself a chance to get it out. *Disclaimer: I had no idea if his wife's success had anything to do with him getting published. I think it didn't...]]>

The midfielder highlights his team's fantastic performance as the reason behind Barça's passage to the semifinals of the Cup
Iniesta says that "we deserved to go through to the next round"
Training session scheduled for 12.30
Leo Messi was brought off on the 82 minute as a precaution. The player was dealing with problems in the adductor of his right leg.
The next training session is scheduled for this Friday at 12.30 at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Despí. Xavi will talk to the press after the session.
Pinto and Song underwent a post-match doping test. The Cameroon international was not able to finish the test in time to catch the team's flight back to Barcelona. The player is scheduled to return to the Catalan capital on Friday morning.
Once again Sergio Busquets facilitated the transition between FC Barcelona's defence and attack with brilliance. His clairvoyance, his mastery of the situation and the ease with which he navigates his position becomes more evident each time he takes to the pitch. "The result is fair, in fact we should have won by more," said the midfielder after this evening's match against Málaga.
Busquets went on to say that "in the first half of the away leg in Barcelona, and today throughout the 90 minutes we could have scored more goals." When asked about his awkward spill that looked like it might have resulted in an injury, Busquets said, "I finished the game without any problems and I'll be ready to go on Sunday."
Lastly, the Catalan midfielder talked about the upcoming showdown with Real Madrid: "we want to win every competition we play in. We have to play against Real Madrid in the semifinals, and we hope to get a good result in the away leg [in Madrid] and later, here, with our fans cheering us on, we hope to get to the final."
Here are the statements made by other members of the first team:
Gerard Piqué
"We knew that it was going to be a difficult match and we had to win. Now we have a great semifinal against Madrid, we'll see who wins."
"We came here to play great football, and that happened in the second half and in the end we got a good result."
"We knew that it would be a complicated match and that's exactly what it was. We tried to control the ball, even though the match got a bit crazy at times but I think the result is fair."
"I didn't think I would score so soon, I'm very content and happy, especially because we made it through to the next round."
On the Clásico
"Casillas is the captain and the emblem of Madrid, he's already shown his quality. Adán is also a very good keeper."
"It's exciting because it's a Cup semifinal and because if you win you go onto the final. It's one of the most attractive matches of the year and we have been lucky enough to play it these past couple of years. First we have to play against Madrid, they will still be dangerous even though they will be missing important players."
Javier Mascherano
"We knew that we had to come here and win. We knew that it wouldn't be easy to beat them, they proved that all season long but we played a great game."
Andrés Iniesta
"I'm happy that I was able to help the team with my goal, I think we scored our four goals at the right times and we qualified for the next round, which was our objective."
"The work of a referee is very complicated and I prefer to not say anything else on the matter."
"They drew level very quickly both times, the important thing is the aggregate score and the second half was practically ours."

Hello everyone, I picked up a bike with Rock Shox Magnesium forks, Mag 20. After finally finding that the air fill is the center screw on the dampening dial (three local LBS did not know this even after seeing the bike, thanks to Jesus I found a thread with the Rock Shox service manuals). I'd like to know how much air to add. Air starts to escape from the shock as soon as I remove the air needle, but I've managed to set the screw under a little pressure but I can't tell how much. Not nearly as much as indicated in the Mag 21 manual. Most of the air escapes before I can set the air inlet screw. Must I set the air inlet screw faster or is there some way to actually tell how much air is in the Mag 20 shock?
I'm feeling very tentative about riding this bike after going over the handle bars during my first test ride when the shocks bottomed out on top of the front wheel, causing the front wheel to come to a abrupt stop. I would hate to have the air leak out during a ride and get hurt.
I'm not sure if I have enough air and oil in the shock and certainly don't want another trip over the handle bars. Help this Noob out, and tell me what I need to know about using and maintaining.these shocks.
After adding air the shocks SEEM ok. They do not bottom out and when I put my full weight of 208lbs. on the handle bars. I'm hopping they will not bottom out after taking a bump or a jump hard and fast. The bike has 26" x 2.2" knobby tires.
Does anyone have a link to the Mag 20 User's manual?
After thinking about the Rock Shox bottoming out on top of the tire, this fork appears very dangerous, if the one that I have is installed correctly. If the shock losses pressure the rider can be ejected from the bike, if the fork or fork brace bottoms out on the tire, resulting in serious injury or death. Please see photo.
Thanks in advance for your help,

In fact, Vanderpump recently revealed that she actually has bruises from working so hard on the show!
No one ever claimed that being on Dancing With The Stars was an easy gig, and Lisa Vanderpump is living proof of that! The Real Housewives star recently spoke to Access Hollywood about her stint on the show, explaining: "I'm covered in bruises. I mean, it's so much harder than I thought it would be! I have to be honest. It should come with a health warning."
But while Lisa Vanderpump may be struggling with the grueling rehearsals, she is not about to give up. This week, Vanderpump and her partner, Gleb Savchenko will take on The Jive for their second routine, and Lisa is definitely a bit nervous. "We don't have the routine down. It's a bit of a rush," Vandepump said, adding that she has been chatting with the other cast members, and everyone seems to be struggling.
Let's hope that Lisa gets it together in time for tonight's show. We're certain she will do just fine, what do you think?

Olympic athletes from around the world are outraged at the latest doping allegations out of Russia.
The federal government is open for business today thanks to the budget agreement worked out late last week. But as the details are sorted out, Republicans and Democrats are rushing to the next battleground in the budget wars — the debt ceiling.
That's the cap on federal spending set by Congress which limits how much the government can borrow. The White House says that failing to raise the debt ceiling would result in an "unthinkable disaster." But Republican leaders say they want to see major steps toward reducing long-term debt before they sign off.
New York Times Treasury Department reporter Binyamin Appelbaum explains how the debt ceiling works and what's at stake in the debate.
