Voters Want Smaller Government
The Washington Post reports today:
Most Americans in a new Washington Post-ABC News poll want a shrunken federal government, and most believe Romney wants that too. ...Support for "smaller government" is up significantly in recent years, and marks a pivotal issue where voters view Obama as far out of step with public opinion.Here's a graph of what registered voters told the Post: The striking thing, of course, is that voters think Romney supports smaller government. It's not a conclusion they could draw from his fiscal record as governor, or from his Massachusetts health care plan, or from his current position on budget cuts, or even from his running mate's budget proposal. I think you have to conclude that voters believe Mitt Romney wants smaller government because President Obama keeps telling them so. Voters have a better sense of Obama's own preferences: 73 percent say he wants larger government. You've got to wonder about the 15 percent who think he wants smaller government, though. Which words in that simple question do they not understand? Meanwhile, I've always thought the "smaller government" question is incomplete. It offers respondents a benefit of larger government – "more services" – but it doesn't mention that the cost of "larger government with more services" is higher taxes. The question ought to give both the cost and the benefit for each option. The Rasmussen poll does often ask the question that way. In fall 2010, when the Post poll showed 56 percent support for smaller government, a Rasmussen poll with the more balanced question found that 68 percent of voters said that they prefer smaller government with fewer services and lower taxes, while only 24 percent would rather see a more active government with more services and higher taxes. Along with other contemporaneous comparisons, it's reasonable to conclude that if you remind respondents that "more services" means higher taxes, the margin by which people prefer smaller government rises by about 9 to 12 points. And remember, swing voters support smaller government by even higher percentages.

VIDEO: Robert Jasper's Trad M12 Scarefest
In February, German alpinist Robert Jasper opened an exciting new four-pitch M12 WI5 trad mixed-climb on the Breitwangflue wall above Kandersteg, Switzerland. Jasper's route—Ritter der Kokosnuß (Monty Python and the Holy Grail)—is the direct line next to Jasper's Flying Circus (the world's first M10), which he established in 1998. The route has a crux pitch of naturally protected M12 climbing (using pegs, nuts, and friends), an M9 pitch and then finishes with a WI5 pitch. For the full story of Jasper's Ritter der Kokosnuß, click here.

"To love to read is to exchange hours of ennui for hours of delight."
Charles de Montesquieu
"TEDIUM, n. Ennui, the state or condition of one that is bored. Many fanciful derivations of the word have been affirmed, but so high an authority as Father Jape says that it comes from a very obvious source --the first words of the ancient Latin hymn _Te Deum Laudamus_. In this apparently natural derivation there is something that saddens."
Ambrose Bierce
"Employment and ennui are simply incompatible"
Dorothe Deluzy

In 1998, Miyake embarked upon a new project called A-POC (A Piece Of Cloth) with Dai Fujiwara and a team of young designers, to challenge the way in which clothing is made, using a new process to create clothing beginning with a single piece of thread. Today, Miyake continues to work with his Reality Lab to create clothing and products that address both aesthetics as well as the needs and concerns of the 21st Century. In 2004 THE MIYAKE ISSEY FOUNDATION was established. Publications include "Issey Miyake East Meets West" (Heibonsha), and "Issey Miyake Making Things" (Actes Sud, Scalo, Axis), etc.

Headliner on S38 MK II
I'm considering replacing some deck hardware (bigger organizer, ganged clutches). Does anybody have any experience dropping the headliner to get at what's above it? I can start pulling screws from trim pieces, but would really like to know what I'm getting myself into.
Thanks, Jim |

Liberal leadership is on
Mailboxes are all aflutter with press releases and there's this nifty new video. This is going to be big, people. The officialdom of it all is starting to set in. Debate schedules and whatnot. Exciting.
Ontario's leadership race should be finished just as this one is starting to heat up. Debates commence roughly around the time when Ontario's campaign will come to an end.
I should have an endorsement - federal - up some time next week.

Pena et a (6) found that anabolic steroid induced azoospermia reversed 3 months after discontinuation in an HIV infected man undergoing IVF, again showing the variability of the return to normal spermatogenesis. With respect to the couple seeking care, several of the cases did return to normal semen parameters within 6 months. His unfortunately did not. The study using HCG injections and one published by Menon (7) where HCG and hMG injections were used resulted in pregnancy within a reasonable amount of time (3 and 7 months, respectively) without resorting to ART. Thus medical management should be suggested as least invasive approach. If the couple does not wish to try more conservative therapy and wishes to proceed with ART in the near future, one could not be 100 % certain that anabolic steroids are the cause since many but not all have normalization in six months.

No search in AirStudio?
Could it be that there really is no search functionality in AirStudio? I have a NAS with more than 1000 albums that I would like to play from my AW3000. Scrolling through the album or track lists in AirStudio to the ones at the bottom takes forever. Furthermore if you enter an album an then go back, you start at the top of the list again. So it's practically impossible to compose a playlist. I would think a search functionality would be basic, but I have not been able to find it. Am I looking in the wrong places?

Medtronic Rejected by Supreme Court on Paraplegic Suit
Greg StohrThe U.S. Supreme Court refused to stop a lawsuit against Medtronic Inc. by a man who was rendered a paraplegic after surgeons implanted a system that infuses pain medication into the spine.
The justices today left intact a federal appeals court decision letting the suit go forward. The suit accuses Medtronic of failing to tell federal regulators about previous problems with the SynchroMed EL pump and catheter.
Minneapolis-based Medtronic argued that patients can't use state law to sue device makers for allegedly violating a duty under federal law. The appeals court rejected that argument, allowing the suit by Richard Stengel and his wife under Arizona state law. Richard Stengel has since died.
Previous Supreme Court decisions have interpreted the federal law that governs medical-device approval as limiting the types of suits patients can press. In a 2008 ruling, the court said device makers can't be subjected to additional requirements under state product-liability law.
That ruling left room for patients to sue under state rules that are "parallel" to federal requirements. The San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said the claims by the Stengels met that test and could go forward.
The Supreme Court acted after receiving a recommendation from the Obama administration not to hear the case.
The case is Medtronic v. Stengel, 12-1351.

Read an Excerpt
"Are you sure about this?" Jace hesitated, one hand gripping a bare branch overhead, the other poised over his zipper. But I could see the truth. He wanted this as badly as I did.
"Absolutely." I pushed my last button through the hole and let my shirt fall to the ground in a patch of mottled sunlight. My skin was already covered in goose bumps, as much from anticipation as from the February cold. "Now shut up and take off your pants."
He shrugged and grinned. "You know I'm always up for some sweaty fun." But the look in his eyes as his gaze roamed south of mine belied his casual zeal. Part bloodlust, part real lust, and all exhilarationjust like me.
"I'm not sure that's quite how I'd describe this." Not that I wasn't looking forward to a little action. It had been days, and I was really starting to crave
"What the hell is this?" Marc growled, an instant before he tore through the brush to my left. Sunlight burst into the woods with his intrusion, spotlighting my exposed bra and Jace's total nudity. Damn, that boy's fast! Fury emanated from Marc like a deep, dark glow, emphasizing his strong, dark features. "You are not doing this without me."
Shit. "Marc, this isn't what you think, and we don't have time to explain " My eyes narrowed as his last few words finally sank in. "Wait what?"
"I said, not without me." His brow rose in silent challenge, and all words abandoned me.
I blinked, lost for a moment in the possibilities, then I shook my head to clear it. "But we're not " I waved one hand back and forth between me and Jace, unable to actually vocalize what he surely thought we were doing. "We're going after Ryan. I caught a whiff of him on my run."
"Vic told me." Yet he was still clearly pissed, even knowing Jace and I hadn't run off for a secret, midday tumble in the underbrush.
"You didn't tell my dad ?"
Marc had been talking war strategy with my father when I'd come in from my run, and I hadn't told them where we were going because I didn't want my dad to know about Ryan. Not when we could easily take care of the problem ourselves and spare himand my motherthe additional tension.
He shook his head slowly, as if doubting his own decision. "Ryan's the last thing he should have to deal with right now."
"Yeah." And I was really looking forward to the exercise, to burn off a little stress through good, clean exertion. As opposed to the other, sweatier kind, which we were all currently denying ourselves, to keep Marc and Jace from killing each other.
Whoever said two is better than one was either stupid or crazy. Or heartless.
"I'm coming with you, so get dressed. Now. You're not Shifting."
"Do not start ordering her around," Jace growled, and dread pitched deep in my stomach, like nausea with a heartburn upgrade.
Marc snarled, and I saw the instant he lost control of his temper. He lunged for Jace. Jace leaped forward. I threw myself between them.
Both hard bodies slammed into me. Air exploded from my throat. My grunt of pain hardly carried any sound. For just an instant, I couldn't move, crushed between them, confused by the collision of scents and hurting all over. My torso was one giant bruiseI wouldn't have fared much better between two oncoming cars.
I'm not sure which of them moved first, but suddenly I was on the ground, staring up at two concerned, angry faces. "Damn it, Faythe, you're going to get yourself killed," Marc snapped.
I sucked in a painful breath, and my voice came out hoarse. "Evidently that's what it takes to keep you two from killing each other." Though truthfully, while Jace would eagerly defend himself, he had yet to actually attack Marc. The reverse could not be said.
I shoved them away and pushed myself to my feet, glaring at Marc as they both stood with me. "Look, I know this whole thing is my fault "
"Not just yours." Marc glowered at Jace over my shoulder.
" and I know the timing could not have been worse. And I'm sorrier about both of those than I could possibly explain. But if I have to spend all my time and energy trying to keep the two of you apart, I really am going to get myself killed, and it'll be your fault."
Marc reeled like I'd punched him. But he recovered quickly, with a fresh dose of anger. "You reap what you sow, Faythe. And I'm still going with you."
I crossed my arms over my chest and tried to ignore the fresh chill bumps. "I think you and Jace should stay away from each other until you've cooled off."
"Why? So you two can top off your hunt with a little more reaping and sowing?"
I closed my eyes, breathing through the acute ache in my chest, which had nothing to do with the midtom collision. Then I made myself look at him. "Do you honestly think I'd do that to you?"
"I think you already have."
He was right, but the barb still stung. I hadn't even come close to earning forgiveness yet, but this was not the time to try. Something always seemed to get in the way. "We're going after Ryan. You're welcome to join us, if you can control your temper."
I'd never seen Marc as bitter or openly antagonistic as he'd been over the past week. His anger was getting in the way of his concentration, his sleeping pattern, and his job, but he couldn't work around it because he couldn't solve the problemthat was up to menor could he get away from it. Every time he turned around, Jace and I were there, our very presence reminding him of what had happened.
This wasn't going to get any better until I made a decision, one way or another.
Marc's dark brows dipped low and he stepped closer, so that I had to look up to meet his eyes. "I'm going on my own terms." He pulled his black T-shirt over his head, and my gaze caught involuntarily on his chest, sculpted by years of enforcer training and scarred by the rogue who'd brought him into my life fifteen years before. I wanted to trace those scars with my fingers, but I wasn't sure I had the right to anymore. He'd barely touched me since he found out about me and Jace.
"You don't outrank me yet," he spat. "So put your shirt onyou're staying on two legs. And this time see if you can keep them together."
I actually staggered backward, floored by the depth of his anger. But not really surprised. I deserved the worst he had to dish out, and he deserved the outlet, especially considering that he couldn't vent where anyone else could hear him. But damn, the venom in his voice stung.
Jace growled and stepped forward, but I put a hand on his stomach to stop him.
I wanted to yell at Marc, to fight back, but that would only make the whole thing worse. So I swallowed my anger and stuck to the subject. "Hell, no. I'm faster on four legs." My private run had been cut short by the unauthorized scent in the woods, and I was dying for some exercise in cat form to help clear my head and fight off the bloodlust we'd all been battling for the past couple of weeks. Ever since Ethan diedmy brother murdered on our own property.
Marc snatched my shirt from the ground and shoved it at me. "Unless you're planning to kill him, claws and canines won't do you any good this time."
He was right, so I groaned and shoved my arms through the sleeves, then turned my back on them both, already running toward the spot where I'd first caught Ryan's scent. "Catch up with me when you've Shifted."
I wasn't a leader. Not really. Not yet. But my father was training me to replace him as Alpha someday, and an Alpha had to be ready to ask questions and issue orders, both of which were hard to do in cat form.
Normally, an Alphaeven a traineewouldn't haul ass through the woods on her own while looking for a known trespasser. Especially in human form, and virtually defenseless against someone with claws and canines. However, this particular trespasser was more than merely known. He was reviled, scorned, and pitied. But he was not feared.
Also, he was my brother.
My pulse raced as I ran and each breath came faster than the last. I tried to exhale it allto purge my body of the poison I'd been living and breathing since I'd started lying to Marc. That was all over. He knew that I'd slept with Jaceonce, in the onslaught of grief for Ethan, while Marc was missing and presumed deadbut the truth had only made things worse. I could apologize, and I had many, many times, but I couldn't tell him it was over. I couldn't tell him I didn't love Jace. Not without lying to him again.
I hated myself for that, but it was a useless hatred. It changed nothing. I loved Marc, but I didn't deserve him. I loved Jace, but I couldn't give up Marc. And no matter what I decided, Marc had made it clear that he couldn't live with Jace anymore. Once the war was over, one of them would have to go. But I didn't want to lose either one.
Lost in my thoughts and ungainly in human form, I tripped over an exposed root and caught myself on a twisted branch, sparing only a moment to regain my balance. Then I was off again, my lungs burning from the cold.
A few steps later, two sleek, dark forms passed me so quickly I couldn't even focus on them. But I could smell them. Marc and Jace, fully Shifted into cat form and embroiled in an impromptu race. Everything was a competition now, whether or not it involved me. Everything was tense, and dangerous, and painful. And I could practically taste Marc's frustration. He could probably have outrun Jaceexcept he didn't know where they were going. He hadn't been there when I told Jace where I'd smelled Ryan.
By the time I got there, they had him treed, a slim human form clinging to the branches overhead. Ryan was little more than a patchwork of shadows cast by the crisscross of branches, but I could swear I saw those shadows tremble.
Marc had wanted him dead all along for what he'd done to me. For giving me to South American tabby traffickers, who would have sold me to the highest bidder.
"Stand down," I said, and both toms obeyed. Even in his unprecedented state of rage, Marc wouldn't expose the dissention in our ranks to the enemy. And despite my mother's soft spot for her second-born, the rest of us definitely considered Ryan an enemy.
"Get down. Now," I ordered, and after a moment's hesitation, Ryan dropped to the ground in front of me, knees bent, arms spread for balance. I tried not to acknowledge the skill in his dismount. I attributed it to the frequency with which a coward like my black-sheep brother was probably treed.
"Faythe." Ryan nodded in tentative greeting, careful not to bow his head too low. He wasn't prepared to acknowledge my rank in the Pride. Not yet, anyway. Even though he was no longer a member.
The shadow of a bare branch fell across his face, and in my mind I saw steel bars. He'd shown up under a truce flag of sorts for Ethan's funeral, but there was too much else going on thenI'd hardly given him a second thought. But seeing him here, hiding in the shadows, brought it all back.
"Give me one good reason I shouldn't let them tear your arms off and watch you bleed out."
"Because Mom would smell my blood the next time she gets within half a mile of here."
I raised both brows, reluctantly impressed. I'd expected him to beg for his life, or at least appeal to our frayed familial bond. But he obviously knew that would do no good. And that even if I were willing to kill someone who posed no immediate threat, I wouldn't hurt our mother, even to punish him. She'd already buried one son, and I would not put her through a second funeral in less than a month.
"What the hell are you doing here? And keep in mind that Shifters can take a lot of pain without actually dying." I'd know.
Ryan had seen me beaten into a mass of blood, lumps, and purple bruises after fighting off the first of the psychotic rapists and murderers he'd helped kidnap me and two other tabbies, including our cousin Abby. All to protect his own ass. For him, that was always the bottom line. Ryan was a Grade-A coward. Just looking at him made me feel sick.
"I need to see her." Our mother, of course. His crutch, bank, security blanket, and the only member of our family he actually seemed to care about.
"I don't give a shit what you need," I spat, and Marc huffed in agreement.
"Fine. I get that and I don't blame you." Ryan nodded, always eager to placate, to keep from getting his face pounded in. "But she needs to see me."
I rolled my eyes. "Why would she need to see you? "
"For the same reason she needs to see you. Because she's our mother. Don't you think she's been through enough with Ethan?"
"Don't." I swallowed thickly and my hands curled into fists as Jace growled at my side. "You do not get to say his name. Ethan was everything you're not. He fought for all of us, over and over. He died fighting for an innocent tabby. But you You sold us out." He dropped a gaze full of guilt, and that only made me angrier. "Look at me," I demanded, my throat aching from holding back the things I wanted to shout at him. The accusations I'd been holding in for months. "Eye contact is the least you owe me."
Ryan raised his head, and the misery I saw on his face did nothing to mollify my rage. He didn't know misery. He knew nothing like the pain he'd caused.
"Abby was seventeen years old, and a virgin, and you let them rape her. Sara was getting married, and you let them rape her, then kill her. And you let them put their hands all over me. You let them try "
He flinched, and I couldn't finish. He knew what he'd let them try. And from the way he cringed, I'd say the memories hurt. Good. But they couldn't hurt him like they hurt me.
"Don't you dare tell me what Mom needs. She does not need you. None of us do."
Ryan sighed and his gaze strengthened, like he was looking for something in my eyes. "I know you don't want to hear this, but she forgave me, Faythe. Why can't you? "
My fist flew before I knew it was going to. His nose crunched, then blood sprayed my shirt and neck. Ryan howled, but the sound ended in a gurgle. His hands flew to cover his face.
Marc purred and rubbed against my ankle. Ryan dropped to his knees, cradling his ruined nose.
"Mom wasn't grabbed, and kicked, and punched, and humiliated," I snapped. "She wasn't thrown around a cage in a filthy basement. She wasn't touched. She has the luxury of forgiveness because she doesn't fail to fight them off in her nightmares. Did you know I dream about it, Ryan?" I dropped into a squat in front of him and pulled his head back by his hair until I saw his eyes, already surrounded by rapidly swelling, darkening flesh. "Did you know it happens all over again, every night I sleep alone? Every night I'm too tired to fight off the memories?" I swallowed a sob and forced the next words out. "I needed you then. You were supposed to protect me. But I don't need you now."
My fist slammed into his jaw, and his head hit the tree trunk. His eyes watered, but I couldn't tell if they were tears of regret or pain. And I didn't care.
One of the guys tugged me backward by the hem of my shirt, and I stood, the cold forgotten. "We were family." I kicked, and my boot slammed into his thigh. "You were my big brother."

Canadian extreme metallers KATAKLYSM have secured the new producer who will handle the mix and master of the band's new album in 2013. The group states: "The band chose a different person this time which should help elevate the bands sound to the next level. His name will be revealed next week."
As has been the case with KATAKLYSM's previous recordings, the band's next CD will be engineered by guitarist Jean-François Dagenais at JFD Studios in Montreal and Texas. He states: "Expect a different, more complex death metal anthem this time around — high velocity, extreme but melodic while maintaining the band's signature trademark crushing grooves. We are refreshed from the time off and are working very hard on this album. We don't follow trends; we are inspired to create our own." KATAKLYSM's multidisc DVD, "The Iron Will: 20 Years Determined", entered the German chart at position No. 98. The set depicts the ups and downs of KATAKLYSM's long, turbulent career, as well as footage of the band's performance at last year's Summer Breeze festival, which took place August 18-20, 2011 in Dinkelsbühl, Germany. The cover art for the release was created by artist Colin Marks (ORIGIN, EXODUS, NEVERMORE). KATAKLYSM's latest album, "Heaven's Venom", sold around 2,400 copies in the United States in its first week of release. The CD landed at position No. 8 on the Top New Artist Albums (Heatseekers) chart, which lists the best-selling albums by new and developing artists, defined as those who have never appeared in the Top 100 of The Billboard 200.KATAKLYSM Working On 'Different, More Complex Death Metal' Album

In this codelab, you'll learn how to use some advanced features of Google Cloud Security and Privacy APIs, including:
You'll take abridged data from the Enron Corpus, encrypt it and load it into Cloud Storage.
The instructor will be sharing with you temporary accounts with existing projects that are already setup so you do not need to worry about enabling billing or any cost associated with running this codelab. Note that all these accounts will be disabled soon after the codelab is over, but you can always do it again at home with your own account.
Once you have received a temporary username / password to login from the instructor, log into Google Cloud Console: https://console.cloud.google.com/.
Here's what you should see once logged in :
Note the project ID you were assigned ( "codelab-test003
" in the screenshot above). It will be referred to later in this codelab as PROJECT_ID
While Google Cloud and KMS can be operated remotely from your laptop, in this codelab we will be using Google Cloud Shell, a command line environment running in the Cloud.
This Debian-based virtual machine is loaded with all the development tools you'll need. It offers a persistent 5GB home directory, and runs on the Google Cloud, greatly enhancing network performance and authentication. This means that all you will need for this codelab is a browser (yes, it works on a Chromebook).
To activate Google Cloud Shell, from the developer console simply click the button on the top right-hand side (it should only take a few moments to provision and connect to the environment):
Once connected to the cloud shell, you should see that you are already authenticated and that the project is already set to your PROJECT_ID
gcloud auth list
Credentialed accounts: - <myaccount>@<mydomain>.com (active)
gcloud config list project
[core] project = <PROJECT_ID>
If for some reason the project is not set, simply issue the following command :
gcloud config set project <PROJECT_ID>
Looking for your PROJECT_ID
? Check out what ID you used in the setup steps or look it up in the console dashboard:
IMPORTANT: Finally, set the default zone and project configuration:
gcloud config set compute/zone us-central1-f
You can choose a variety of different zones. Learn more in the Regions & Zones documentation.
In order to store the data in this codelab, you'll need your own Cloud Storage bucket. Pick a name for it, such as enron_corpus
. Run the following commands in your shell (CloudShell for instance):
BUCKET_NAME=your_name_enron_corpus gsutil mb gs://${BUCKET_NAME} # Creating gs://your_name_enron_corpus/...
Cloud Storage bucket names have to be unique across all buckets, so change your_name above to your own name or some other unique identifier. For more information, see the Cloud Storage bucket naming guidelines.
After your bucket has been created, you should be ready to go. Running this command should also help to verify that you've got the gsutil
command line client setup correctly, authentication is working, and you have write access to the cloud project you're operating under.
The Enron Corpus is a large database of over 600,000 emails generated by 158 employees of the Enron Corporation. This data has been copied to the GCS bucket gs://enron_corpus/
Let's download one of the source files locally so that we can see what it looks like. Run the following commands from a command window:
gsutil cp gs://enron_corpus/allen-p/inbox/1. . tail 1.
This should display the contents of the plaintext mail file. There are two types of files we'll be looking at for this codelab: plaintext mail files and image files. If you're interested, use the same mechanism to check out what is in those other files.
Before you can use KMS, you need to enable KMS in your project. This can be done in the using the gcloud command-line utility. Run the following command in your shell (CloudShell for instance):
gcloud service-management enable cloudkms.googleapis.com
In order to encrypt the data, you need to create a KeyRing and a CryptoKey. KeyRings are useful for grouping keys. Keys can be grouped by environment (like test, staging, and prod) or by some other conceptual grouping. For this codelab, create a KeyRing named test
. You will specify the location as global, but this can also be a specific region.
KEYRING_NAME=test gcloud beta kms keyrings create $KEYRING_NAME --location global
Next, using the new KeyRing, create a CryptoKey named codelab
CRYPTOKEY_NAME=codelab gcloud beta kms cryptokeys create $CRYPTOKEY_NAME --location global \ --keyring $KEYRING_NAME \ --purpose encryption
You've created a KeyRing and CryptoKey! Open the Key Management Web UI and view the resources you've created. This is available under IAM & Admin in the main menu:
The Key Management Web UI allows you to view and manage your CryptoKeys and KeyRings. You will use this UI later when you manage permissions.
Next, let's actually try to encrypt some data! Take the contents of the email we previously looked at and base64 encode it.
PLAINTEXT=$(cat 1. | base64 -w0)
Using the encrypt endpoint, you can send the base64-encoded text you want to encrypt to the specified key. The response will be a JSON payload containing the encrypted text in the attribute ciphertext
curl -v "https://cloudkms.googleapis.com/v1beta1/projects/$DEVSHELL_PROJECT_ID/locations/global/keyRings/$KEYRING_NAME/cryptoKeys/$CRYPTOKEY_NAME:encrypt" \ -d "{\"plaintext\":\"$PLAINTEXT\"}" \ -H "Authorization:Bearer $(gcloud auth application-default print-access-token)"\ -H "Content-Type: application/json"
Now that your data is encrypted, you can save it to a file and upload it to your GCS bucket. To grab the encrypted text from the JSON response and save it to a file, you will use the command-line utility jq. The response from the previous call can be piped into jq, which can parse out the ciphertext
property to the file 1.encrypted
curl -v "https://cloudkms.googleapis.com/v1beta1/projects/$DEVSHELL_PROJECT_ID/locations/global/keyRings/$KEYRING_NAME/cryptoKeys/$CRYPTOKEY_NAME:encrypt" \ -d "{\"plaintext\":\"$PLAINTEXT\"}" \ -H "Authorization:Bearer $(gcloud auth application-default print-access-token)"\ -H "Content-Type:application/json" \ | jq .ciphertext -r > 1.encrypted
To verify the encrypted data can be decrypted, call the decrypt
endpoint to verify the decrypted text matches the original email. The encrypted data has information on which CryptoKey version was used to encrypt it, so the specific version is never supplied to the decrypt endpoint.
curl -v "https://cloudkms.googleapis.com/v1beta1/projects/$DEVSHELL_PROJECT_ID/locations/global/keyRings/$KEYRING_NAME/cryptoKeys/$CRYPTOKEY_NAME:decrypt" \ -d "{\"ciphertext\":\"$(cat 1.encrypted)\"}" \ -H "Authorization:Bearer $(gcloud auth application-default print-access-token)"\ -H "Content-Type:application/json" \ | jq .plaintext -r | base64 -d
Now that you have verified the text has been encrypted successfully, upload the encrypted file to your GCS bucket.
gsutil cp 1.encrypted gs://${BUCKET_NAME}
In KMS, there are two major permissions to focus on. One permissions allows a user or service account to manage KMS resources, the other allows a user or service account to use keys to encrypt and decrypt data.
The permission to manage keys is cloudkms.admin
, and allows anyone with the permission to create KeyRings and create, modify, disable, and destroy CryptoKeys. The permission to encrypt and decrypt is cloudkms.cryptoKeyEncrypterDecrypter
, and is used to call the encrypt and decrypt API endpoints.
For this exercise, you will use the current authorized user to assign IAM permissions. To get the current authorized user, run the command below.
USER_EMAIL=$(gcloud auth list --limit=1 2>/dev/null | grep '@' | awk '{print $2}') echo $USER_EMAIL
Next, you will assign that user the ability to manage KMS resources. Run the following gcloud command to assign the IAM permission to manage the KeyRing you just created:
gcloud beta kms keyrings add-iam-policy-binding $KEYRING_NAME \ --location global \ --member user:$USER_EMAIL \ --role roles/cloudkms.admin
Since CryptoKeys belong to KeyRings, and KeyRings belong to Projects, a user with a specific role or permission at a higher level in that hierarchy inherits the same permissions on the child resources. That is, a user who has the role of owner on a Project is also an owner on all the KeyRings and CryptoKeys in that project. Similarly, if a user is granted the cloudkms.admin
role on a KeyRing, they have the associated permissions on the CryptoKeys in that KeyRing.
Without the cloudkms.cryptoKeyEncrypterDecrypter
permission, the authorized user will not be able to use the keys to encrypt or decrypt data. Run the following gcloud command to assign the IAM permission to encrypt and decrypt data for any CryptoKey under the KeyRing you created:
gcloud beta kms keyrings add-iam-policy-binding $KEYRING_NAME \ --location global \ --member user:$USER_EMAIL \ --role roles/cloudkms.cryptoKeyEncrypterDecrypter
Now you can view the assigned permissions in the Key Management Web UI. Click the three vertical dots by the KeyRing and select Edit Permissions.
This will open up a menu where you can see the accounts and permissions for the KeyRing you just added.
Now that you have an understanding of how to encrypt a single file, and have permission to do so, you can run a script to backup all files in a directory. For this example, we will copy all emails for allen-p, encrypt them, and upload them to a Cloud Storage bucket. First, copy all emails for allen-p into your current working directory:
gsutil -m cp -r gs://enron_corpus/allen-p .
Now copy and paste the following into the Cloud Shell terminal to backup and encrypt all the files in the allen-p directory to your Cloud Storage bucket:
MYDIR=allen-p FILES=$(find $MYDIR -type f -not -name "*.encrypted") for file in $FILES; do PLAINTEXT=$(cat $file | base64 -w0) curl -v "https://cloudkms.googleapis.com/v1beta1/projects/$DEVSHELL_PROJECT_ID/locations/global/keyRings/$KEYRING_NAME/cryptoKeys/$CRYPTOKEY_NAME:encrypt" \ -d "{\"plaintext\":\"$PLAINTEXT\"}" \ -H "Authorization:Bearer $(gcloud auth application-default print-access-token)" \ -H "Content-Type:application/json" \ | jq .ciphertext -r > $file.encrypted done gsutil -m cp *.encrypted gs://${BUCKET_NAME}
This script loops over all the files in a given directory, encrypts them using the KMS API, and uploads them to Google Cloud Storage.
After the script completes, you can view the encrypted files in the Google Cloud Storage UI. You should see something like this:
Google Cloud Audit Logging consists of two log streams, Admin Activity and Data Access, which are generated by Google Cloud Platform services to help you answer the question of "who did what, where, and when?" within your Google Cloud Platform projects.
To view the activity for any resource in KMS, Click the three vertical dots by the KeyRing and select View Activity.
This will take you to the Cloud Activity UI, where you should see the creation and all modifications made to the KeyRing.
Let's release compute resources created during the lab. If you no longer need it, go ahead and delete the Cloud Storage bucket you created in the beginning of the lab.
gsutil rm -r gs://${BUCKET_NAME}
As KMS resources (CryptoKeys and KeyRings) are permanent, there is no way to remove them. However, you can destroy the CryptoKey version used in this project so it cannot be used again:
gcloud beta kms cryptokeys versions destroy 1 \ --location=global \ --cryptokey=$CRYPTOKEY_NAME \ --keyring=$KEYRING_NAME
You've now encrypted and uploaded data using KMS and Cloud Storage!

It seems that a patent was just issued, to Microsoft, for a method and system for location-based licensing. This system would allow the owner of content to specify the locations or geographical areas where the content can be consumed. The licensed device's location would be checked against the locational constraints before it would be allowed to access content. I'm sure we can all imagine many annoying ways that this could be put to use…….Over on his blog, Kevin Maney speculates that Apple will be licensing the technology any day now to prevent iTunes songs from playing on devices in France.

Five Spot: Breaking Out the Musical Ugly Stick
Welcome back to Five Spot. Every Friday, we'll examine a recent bit of music news and list five reasons why it's either brilliant or dumb-assed. Send tips to firstname.lastname@example.com.
That's Iggy on the right, in case you were wondering.
Leathery Stooge Iggy Pop recently had his band's equipment stolen outside of an Embassy Suites hotel - the exact reason why we stay at the fashionably swank Motel 6 on tour - and naturally, the first thing Five Spot thought when we saw the story was, "Wow, Iggy Pop is not an attractive man. In the least."
Since it was through no fault of his own, Mr. Pop gets a pass on us deciding if this bit of news is dumb-assed or not; unfortunately for him, though, that doesn't make him any less ugly. Here are five of our favorite musicians Iggy might hang out with to make himself feel less, er, monsterish.

Remember that poster Lil' Kim had in the '90s that drove everyone nuts? (The one where she's squatting in that leopard print bikini.) She's pretty much the exact opposite of that now.

We really hate to speak ill of the dead but - wait, Courtney Love's not dead? Yipes. Then can someone explain to us why she looks like the Crypt Keeper?

So it wasn't two o'clock in the morning and he wasn't wearing a funny wig – that was Lasith Malinga – but how many times has Kumar Sangakkara wound up England now?
It may not take much to get Jimmy Anderson swinging but there's not much point in having a go when your opponent has a hundred to his name, as the wicketkeeper had on Thursday night in The Champions Trophy (Sky Sports 1).
"Sangakkara's heard it all before," said Nasser Hussain. "They're real streetfighters, these Sri Lankans." Mike Atherton next to him inquired, barely audibly: "Fighting terminology's OK so long as it's on the field?" Amid all the big hitting of this tournament, it's almost as if the commentators are not allowed to talk about David Warner – his very public disgrace has hardly merited a mention. Presumably that's not because they are worried about reprisals.
Sangakkara is himself famous for his ceaseless chatter behind the stumps. "Cymbals, am I right?" former Lankan Russel Arnold teased Hussain. "That's what you used to call Sangas in your sledging days?" "I think you're confusing me with someone else," replied Nasser after a long silence, as if backing away from a confrontation.
Sangakkara strode to the wicket at about the same time as Warner was being made to duck and weave in the face of the world's media. His batting was to prove anything but crash, bang, wallop as he stroked his way elegantly to victory.
Hussain and Atherton vied with each other to describe his effortless display: "You have to outdo my 'calmness' with your 'serenity'," said Hussain as the gentle sparring continued between two old batsmen who were not exactly renowned for their aggressive intent back in the day. They might have been describing their own technique, though others might have used the word "dull".
For some reason Atherton felt compelled to defend his former methods. He said of the innovations of Joe Root, who looks uncannily like him under the lid: "He's only been around two minutes in cricket but he's playing shots others wouldn't dream of."
He added: "It's only a reflection of the era you grow up in. If I was growing up today, you'd learn to play the shots you'd have to play to survive." But if Athers had tried to play a "reverse ramp" he would probably have ended up hitting himself in the face, which wouldn't have helped his survival chances at all.
It was like listening to Geoff Boycott – the man who once wrote that he never deliberately tried to hit a six in his career – on Channel Five the week before trying to describe Jos Buttler's epic cameo: "That's a hockey shot" and "Ha ha, what a shot that is. That's tennis!" Whatever it was, it just wasn't cricket. At least he didn't try to defend his own reputation for boring play, although to be fair to Atherton a sound defence was always his default setting.
"They won't do anything silly for a while," said Atherton as Sangakkara and Tillekeratne Dilshan compiled a leisurely stand. Yet the very next ball Dilshan, the man who invented the ramp shot, came charging down the wicket and was caught in the deep. Is it time for specialist commentators for the various formats of the game as well as specialist players?
There's not much chance of getting a smack around the chops on the field these days – even the bouncers are slow now (and not just the ones in Birmingham's late bars). You are more likely to get hit by one of the cameras whizzing across the ground on zipwires. Or be clattered by some dumb drummer dressed in a Grenadier guard costume. That's if you don't hit them first. One man's percussion is another man's concussion.

We're very much dismayed to hear the news that the Rover Spirit has "a serious anomaly" and has been issuing a distress signal.
But wouldn't it be cool if the reason was that the exploratory space vehicle had tripped the security alarms of some nearby colony, so over the last few days the Martians assembled and devised a war plan and stormed down on Rover, atomizing it!?

Soul Survivors Review
By Pete Croatto
However, protocol forces me to do otherwise. Soul Survivors tells the story of four college-bound friends: Cassandra (Melissa Sagemiller) is sweet and innocent. Party girl Annabel (Eliza Dushku of Bring It On) is dating world-weary Harvard student Matt (Wes Bentley). Matt still has feelings for Cassie, who is now dating Sean (Casey Affleck).
Driving back from a creepy, gothic party, the quartet gets into a horrific car crash. Sean dies, leaving Cassie crestfallen and guilty, made worse because Sean saw Matt kiss Cassie just minutes after Sean revealed his love for her.
As Cassie mopes through her classes, she sees the ghost of Sean all over the place, urging her to follow him. Along with being plagued by other ghastly visions, Cassie is also followed by thugs from that strange party. Annabel and Matt try calming her down, but no one shares Cass's visions. She has to figure out this purgatory all by herself.
Rarely have I seen a director so thoroughly mishandle material. In his directorial debut, Steve Carpenter does nothing to provoke the audience into feeling any emotion. When the movie's camerawork isn't pedestrian, it's clichéd. Carpenter's need for close-ups, his camera following Sagemiller from behind, drain the movie of any anticipation. We already know what to look for, so why should we be surprised? And the sense of scary atmosphere, which was recently done so well in The Others, is nowhere to be found here.
Carpenter's script relies on random twists and turns with a minimum of logic and loads of laziness. This is a movie where the ending features one character providing an explanation about the plot to another character, which is one of the lamest screenwriting devices around. The second lamest device, of course, is the, "Oh, it was all a dream" resolution. And guess what? This movie has both!
Not that the main body of the film, which has Sagemiller constantly running in fear or having a nervous breakdown, is anything worthwhile. Since there's no captivating dialogue, no character chemistry exists anywhere. That's a huge problem, since the four main characters are supposed to be couples.
Carpenter can't even get the smutty scenes right, which are becoming more prevalent in PG-13 movies like Bring It On and Get Over It. [The film was recently re-cut from an R rating to get more kids in the seats. -Ed.] When Sagemiller and Dushku dance together at a club, he rarely shows them in a full shot and he never keeps the camera on them for longer than a second before relating to some Michael Bay-style quick cuts. And when Sagemiller and Dushku take a shower together after getting covered in paint, they're fully clothed. Regardless, any sexiness in that scene is undercut by its stupidity. Why wouldn't they wash the clothes in the sink or in the washing machine? Why would they shower in their clothes? What if they weren't covered in latex paint?
The cast, which will see better material in the future, would be wise to leave this one off their resumes. I felt sorry for Affleck, who I've liked in other movies, and Bentley, who was great in American Beauty. Dushku, who possesses an alluring femme fetale quality, has got to stop taking roles belonging to Rose McGowan. As for Sagemiller (star of the aforementioned Get Over It), I want to see her in a movie where she plays a person, and not an object for gawking. And I'm not even getting into Luke Wilson's role as a priest. At least he's friends with Wes Anderson.
Bottom line: Soul Survivors is so awful I feel compelled to knock on doors and warn people about it.
The studio has tried to salvage this wreck with the home video/DVD release, touting it as "The Killer Cut," with "More Blood! More Sex! More Terror!" If a single quick shot of a topless Angela Featherstone and a few shot's of Sagemiller's naked back pass for "More Sex!" these days, we really need to reevaluate what passes for marketing.
If you liked the movie, you can buy this prop!

Pluto (formerly known as Pluto the Pup) is an animated cartoon character made famous in a series of Disney short cartoons. He has most frequently appeared as Mickey Mouse's pet dog. He also had an independent starring role in a number of Disney shorts in the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s. Pluto is unusual for a Disney character in that he is not anthropomorphized beyond showing an unusually broad range of facial expressions or use of his front paws at key points; he is actually represented as a normal dog (unlike Goofy who is an anthropomorphic dog).
His first comics appearance was in the Mickey Mouse daily strips in 1931 two months after the release of the Moose Hunt cartoon. Pluto Saves the Ship, a comic book published in 1942, is one of the first Disney comics prepared for publication outside newspaper strips. However, not counting a few cereal give-away mini-comics in 1947 and 1951, he did not have his own comics title until 1952.
Pluto has also appeared in the television series Mickey Mouse Works, Disney's House of Mouse and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. He also had a cameo appearance in Quack Pack. Curiously enough, however, Pluto was the only standard Disney character not included when the whole gang was reunited for the 1983 featurette Mickey's Christmas Carol, although he did return in The Prince and the Pauper in 1990 and Runaway Brain five years later, and was also spotted in Who Framed Roger Rabbit in 1988. In 1996, he makes a cameo appearance in the Quack Pack episode "The Really Mighty Ducks".

R's Birfday Pt 3 Finis
Due to the hideous Grand Pricks motor car race, the departure point had been altered and we were not going south to St Kilda. We met at the old City via William Street tram terminus, now just a siding, at the northern end of the city. We hovered for a bit and took some snaps standing in front of the trams. As soon as we were on board, champers was served and our first course, dips and dry biscuits was on the table, along with a bread roll.
Chicken or beef? Chocolate or sticky date? I chose beef steak, very nice, and sticky date pudding, great. The staff, Joe mostly, were attentive, especially with the drinks. Our tram driver's name was Andrew and R fell in love with his bare legs. I have a vague memory of Andrew from a warehouse dance party many years ago. He must be one of those homosexual types. While staff introduced themselves, the tram drivers did not. It would be nice if they did.
Unlike when we sailed down the Seine, I really tried this time to pay attention to where we were.
I did not even know trams could turn right into Latrobe Street from the northern part of William Street. We changed direction once in Latrobe Street and headed west. We turned right into Spring Street, then left into Wellington Parade and along Bridge Road. We are in Church Street, someone commented. Nonsense, I said, we crossed Church Street already. Apparently there is another Church Street I never knew about. You following our trip ok Peter? I still knew where I was, but I need to look at a map now. Church Street becomes High Street. Yes, I know High Street in Kew. We had passed the Kew tram depot. The tram turned back and we then turned into Barkers Road, past the front of the tram depot, and then the road changes to Victoria Street, and Victoria Parade. Along Latrobe Street, change direction and turn left into William Street and we were back where we started.
Apparently the step up to tram from ground is quite high. A removable step was added as we boarded. Quite unnecessary, I judged. I welcomed the supplementary step when we left. I had taken my money's worth of supplied booze.
Funny, I noticed this coat of arms straight away in the photo. I never really saw it at the time in spite of R gesturing in the direction.
Orient Express?
Or bordello? I took the photo before everyone boarded, just to annoy Victor who is convinced there are no people in Melbourne.
Steak, meat for a man.
So I may have had champagne, four glasses of red wine, cognac with my coffee, Drambuie and port in an hour and a half. I got me monies worf.

I lost my bearings re directions before you got to the part "you following our trip ok?". I know BArkers Road but didn't realise the dinner tram went that far. <ust be nice seeing all the expensive residences. I haven't been on the tram yet (my pocket and my wishes don't always agree) but am glad you posted that lovely photo showing just how plush it is. Understand about getting one's money worth of grog. Reminds me of the time I went Gold Class from Kuranda to Cairns - champers was included - and that return trip was way more fun than going up.
ReplyDeleteYes, it was good fun Jayne.
BFG, the tram doesn't normally go out there that I know of, but the route was changed because of the GP. It certainly is not cheap.
Bendigo has one too River. Now there is an opportunity for Adelaide.
AdRad, they certainly did not pick up along the road. The steak seemed freshly cooked. I guess a lot is prepared in advance. I was a bit slow off the mark with the camera and the driver's legs.
Indeed I did MC.

Gas-well fire still burning in Dunkard Township
DUNKARD TOWNSHIP, Pa. - A gas-well fire has been burning in Dunkard Township for more than 80 hours, as of Friday evening.
Channel 11's Cara Sapida drove to the highest point she could find to check out the fire Friday.
Crews have been working 24 hours a day, Sapida reported.
The fire, which was expected to be out by now, won't be extinguished until Sunday or Monday, officials said.
DEP Director John Ryder explained the difficult job.
"It's a very labor intensive process to take vehicles off location because their tires have burned and have to be taken away with a bulldozer. That takes a lot of time and planning," he said.
Ryder added that no one who lives in the area is at risk.
"They've established a safe perimeter. There's no reason for concern. Highly trained and skilled professionals take control of the well. They're working very hard," he said.

Intelligent cars fitted with aircraft-style black boxes that can send video footage and information about driving behaviour during accidents to the police and insurance companies are being developed by computer scientists.
The car, which is being developed by researchers at computer chip giant Intel, will record information about the vehicle speed, steering and braking along with video footage from inside and outside the vehicle.
This would be automatically sent to police and insurance companies in the event of an accident to make it easier to determine the cause of car crashes and identify the person responsible.
The device forms part of an intelligent car envisaged by researchers at computer chip giant Intel. They are developing technology that will transform cars into smart vehicles that are able to detect dangers on the road and even take over control from motorists.
They have been in discussions with car manufacturers about developing cars that are permanently connected to the internet and other vehicles using wireless technology.

CBS Runs Segment Called 'Let's Give Up On The Constitution'
From Georgetown law professor Louis Michael Seidman: I've got a simple idea: Let's give up on the Constitution. I know, it sounds radical, but it's really not. Constitutional disobedience is as American as apple pie. For example, most of our greatest Presidents — Jefferson, Lincoln, Wilson, and both Roosevelts — had doubts about the Constitution, and many of them disobeyed it when it got in their way.
To be clear, I don't think we should give up on everything in the Constitution. The Constitution has many important and inspiring provisions, but we should obey these because they are important and inspiring, not because a bunch of people who are now long-dead favored them two centuries ago. Unfortunately, the Constitution also contains some provisions that are not so inspiring. For example, one allows a presidential candidate who is rejected by a majority of the American people to assume office. Suppose that Barack Obama really wasn't a natural-born citizen. So what? Constitutional obedience has a pernicious impact on our political culture. Take the recent debate about gun control. None of my friends can believe it, but I happen to be skeptical of most forms of gun control. I understand, though, that's not everyone's view, and I'm eager to talk with people who disagree.
But what happens when the issue gets Constitutional-ized? Then we turn the question over to lawyers, and lawyers do with it what lawyers do. So instead of talking about whether gun control makes sense in our country, we talk about what people thought of it two centuries ago. Worse yet, talking about gun control in terms of constitutional obligation needlessly raises the temperature of political discussion. Instead of a question on policy, about which reasonable people can disagree, it becomes a test of one's commitment to our foundational document and, so, to America itself.

New of when Apple will release iOS 4.3 seems to be heating up now, only yesterday we reported that the release date will be February 9th, but we have an update to this. The latest rumor is that the mobile OS will be ready for download on Feb 14, which is said to be the same day the HTC Thunderbolt is released. Not only that, we also have details of the release time as well.
According to Macstories the release time for iOS 4.3 will be 10am PST, 1pm EST, and 6pm GMT. If we remember correctly, this was the same time that iOS 4.0 was released back in June last year. We do fear that people who own an iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad might forget to get their loved one some flowers or chocolates, as they will only have one thing on their mind.
However, knowing what features the update will bring could be worth the argument – do not take the chance. Improved AirPlay, App update buttons and video effects are just some of them. However, the iPhone is set to get even more, such as personal Hotspots and Find My Friends.
That's not to say that the iPod Touch and the iPad will not get their own features. These include FaceTime for the former and Finger gestures, Full screen iAd banners and Orientation lock for the latter. For more details on all these new features visit Pocket-lint.
Do you think that this will be the last update before the iPhone 5 is released, and will the next OS be iOS 5.0?
Follow us on Facebook, Twitter or Google Plus.

When installing a rom in cwmr its telling me "random offset 0x236" then installation complete. That's when I installed cm9, it did it when I also installed gummynex but diffrent numbers. Everything seems to be Ok but do I need to be worried? Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using DroidForums
Nope, nothing wrong. It is actually a new safety feature built into ICS. Address space layout randomization - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
phew....had me sweating bullets there for a minute. just saw that on the 6.7.232 ICS leak for Bionic. Strange thing is that this is like the 4th time i've put this leak on and the 1st time i've seen that.
Haha. It caught me off guard the first time I saw it as well. I had to see if that was normal, and if so why. But yeah, completely normal, and actually a good thing.
