Dynamically accept search pattern and display lines based on it
I have a output file which contains n number of document.Each document has n number of segments and identified using below points The starting segment is ISA and Ending segment is IEA Each document has unique number and it will be passed in REF*D9 segment Each line in sample file is called segment and each segment is group of field delimited with (*) Since i cant paste the entire contents i have attached the sample file. Refer the sample file for exact file structure. If i need to display particular segment from large sample file Code:
For eg N3 segment which is under NM1*85 segments for following documents alone 12000000010 12000000011 12000000012 12000000013 12000000014 12000000015 12000000016 12000000017 I used the following commands Code:
1.awk 'a-->0;/NM1\*85/{a=1}/REF\*D9/' file > file1 2.nawk '{s=s?s"\t"$0:$0}/REF/{print s;s=""}' file1|sed -n '/12000000010/,/12000000017/p' if i need N4 segment which is under NM1*85 segment for same set of documents then i use Code:
3.awk 'a-->0;/NM1\*85/{a=2}/REF\*D9/' file|egrep -v "N3" > file2 4.nawk '{s=s?s"\t"$0:$0}/REF/{print s;s=""}' file2|sed -n '/12000000010/,/12000000017/p' so for each and every segment i need to type the command again and store the output in seperate file Code:
So I need something user interactive i.e it should prompt for search pattern and no of lines to be displayed after that pattern as i mentioned in 1st command for segment to be omitted as i mentioned in 3rd command(egrep) and also for start and end document no. as i mentioned in 4rd command(sed) all these validation need to be done in tmp file or something and as soon i provided start and end document no it should display the output I am novice to unix i got this idea if anybody can come up with better logic that will handle my requirement it would be appreciable Code:
OS - SunOS viper 5.9 Generic_117171-07 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-480R Shell - csh |

A shell loop can ask for the pattern, capture matching lines in a temp file, count the lines at the same time, and if any lines, turn you over to vi, pg, less in the temp file to view and play in the subset. When you exit the viewer, it asks you if you want to view again, and if not, loops. You can make any copies you want from inside the viewer.
Now, only a select few actually prefer the csh. The bash and ksh93 are much nicer and there are more experts to help. PS: I use the ksh/bash 'set -o vi' option to do command recall, so I do not type commands over and over. I never even leave my home dir except inside (...) so I return automatically. It makes the history more valuable. I also save the history file occasionally where my tools can find it, and set a huge HISTSIZE of 32767. I consider one of the best CUI's.

ok i will be happy if i get the solution based on any shell |
In bash, something like this? File names go on command line. Code:
#!/bin/bash ans=y while [[ "$ans" == '[Yy]*' ]] do echo "Enter pattern: \c" read ptn echo 'Searching . . . \c' lc=$( grep -E "$ptn" "$@" | tee /tmp/patgrep.$$ | wc -l ) echo "$lc lines found." if [ $lc != 0 ] then sleep 6 vi /tmp/patgrep.$$ fi echo 'Another (y/n)? \c' read ans done |

Think of road trips with your children as rare opportunities. When else do you have a long stretch of time with your kids uninterrupted by television, homework, phone calls, their friends or other distractions? Especially with kids along, getting there can be half the fun.
To make sure, plan ahead and follow the cardinal rule of family travel: maintain a sense of humor. After all, sometimes cars break down, babies spit up, traffic crawls and attractions get crowded. Here are some suggestions, oriented to age groups, to make your road trip memorable for all the right reasons.
Tweens and Teens:
•Talk with them . Get the conversation going by telling tales of your childhood. Kids love to hear about their parents at their same age.
•Listen . A car provides an ideal venue for older children to open up about their feelings. Since the driver looks straight ahead and the passengers often do too, conversation feels much less judgmental than a face-to-face talk. On a long stretch of highway when it's dark, you're likely to find out what it really felt like to come in third at the swim meet.
•Let teens pick aspects of the trip . The ultimate procrastinators, most teens won't have given your journey much thought, although they will express definite opinions. Once on the highway, hand your teens guidebooks and travel apps so they can choose a few activities and restaurants.
•Share music. Music really can soothe the soul. Ask your teens to share songs from their personal iPods or MP3 players that the family might like. Use your car's stereo system or tote a portable speaker.
Grade Schoolers:
•Vary the seating . After miles on the road, it's common to hear such backseat cries as "His foot is on my side." To manage a meltdown, divide and conquer. Switch places so that the child old enough to sit in the front moves next to the driver. If there's another adult, have him sit in the rear. That not only stops squabbles, but gives each child important one-on-one time with a parent or grandparent.
•Use the baby to mark a border . With three children, place the littlest one in the middle of the car's backseat. That creates a buffer zone between fighting older siblings and positions two kids to play with the tot.
•Think picnic. Tweak the tried-and-true rule of taking a bathroom and snack break every two to three hours: pack a lunch and pause for a picnic and a Frisbee game at a local or state park along your route.
•Bring games and toys . Bring the movies, portable electronic games and other hi-tech toys your brood favors. But think low-tech, too. Pack pipe cleaners for making crazy-shaped critters, as well as coloring books, crayons and sticker games, plus a few new toys as a surprise.
•Arrive by late afternoon . After a day on the road, everybody looks forward to an out-of-car experience. Plan to arrive at your daily destination well before dinner so that you and the kids can take advantage of the swimming pool or play area.
Babies and Toddlers:
•Understand your family's rhythms of the road . Some families prefer putting little ones in pajamas and starting the drive after dinner when traffic diminishes and kids sleep. Others find that early-morning departures enable them to be at their destination before the late-afternoon, kid-cranky hours.
•Work with a tot's schedule, not against it. Maximize little ones' nap time by driving when they sleep and stopping for meals when they are hungry. Don't expect your three-year-old not to be tired when it's her nap time just because you've arrived at the children's museum.
•Know what your child can drink in a moving vehicle . Some children can down a bottle of juice or milk in the car, but then upchuck it two miles down the highway. Best to give some thirsty tots only water until you pull in to a rest stop.
•Be prepared . Keep lots of wet wipes, paper towels, and diapers as well as a few trash bags and extra clothes within easy reach.
•Dress for the drive . Make sure the baby's wearing easy to undo, comfortable clothing. Save the "grandma dress" with the lace and frills for after your arrival.

HIV is a sexually transmitted infection that can also be spread by contact with infected blood, or from mother to child during pregnancy, childbirth or breast-feeding. The virus damages your immune system interfering with your body's ability to fight the infection. After years of HIV infection your immune system weakens to the point that you have AIDS making you susceptible to a vast range of other infections. There is no cure for HIV / AIDS, but there are medications that can dramatically slow the progression of the disease. Monday on Line One, Dr. Woodard and his guests will explore the basic knowledge of HIV / AIDS and the available resources in Alaska.

The NBA draft, and the months preceding it, is a big spectacle. Of course, it didn't always used to be that way. Here's how Stan Love found out he was drafted. Stan Love was selected No. 9 by the Baltimore Bullets in 1971.
"I was driving down Interstate 5 from Eugene to L.A. when I heard on the radio that I was drafted by Baltimore," Love said. "I pulled over to look at a map and see where it was."

It will work OK as long as you don't plan on pulling a trailer that often. You should feel the engine rev up a little more before it starts to move during more aggressive throttle input. But driving slow with light throttle, it should feel like a stock converter. You will lose about 1 or 2 mpg with the high stall converter.
I have a TCI 2000 rpm stall in my 70 C10, 454, TH400, 3.08 gear, 28 in tall tires, 4000lbs, and when pulling a 3000 lb trailer it will stall at 2800 rpm! I'm sure the 454 has an effect of the higher stall, but you see would I mean. I recently bought a 1500 rpm stall Hughes towing converter to try and re-gain some mpg and allow towing without excessive transmission heat. But I haven't had the time to pull the transmission to install it. |
Thanks for the replies,
I installed the tranny on Saturday and so far it seems to be o.k. It was used, it was in my 68 nova when I bought it. I know, someone installed the long tail shaft tranny and cut the driveshaft!! The kid told me it has a shift kit and by the looks of it, it seems to have the plate in it like the one in a Transpak kit. but it doesn't really shift that hard. It's been sitting for a few years and I installed new front and rear seals, filter and threw in some $2 conditioner. Wish me luck. |
if you put in type F fluid it will shift harder. and it will still work ok. dexton/mercon 2 makes the shifts smoother.

No, Six-Gun-Toting Teachers Will not Rove DISD Campuses (Updated)
DISD Police Chief Craig Miller |
As we reported earlier, newly elected state Representative Jason Villalba announced his intention to file legislation allowing Texas school districts to arm trained faculty and staff members. "School marshals," I think he calls them.
In case you were wondering whether we might see ol' Coach prowling the halls of a DISD campus with a Glock tucked into his sweats, the answer, a district spokesman assures us, is emphatically no. DISD has its own police department. "Not all school districts in the state of Texas, in fact, the majority of Texas school districts do not," DISD spokesman Jon Dahlander told us. "Because we have our own police department, we've got officers who are trained and licensed to carry a weapon."
That is isn't to say DISD has an officer on every campus. They do not. "We could conceivably put armed officers in every school. The difficulty of course is the cost," he added. School districts have seen their budgets slashed by the state Legislature, but whether DISD should have a gun on every campus is something worth discussing, now that school safety is on our minds.
"We just don't have enough officers to place one in every campus right now," Dahlander said. "So that's something we're going to need to talk about."
Update: DISD spokesman Jon Dahlander sends along this final thought: "There will likely be a number of different ideas designed to keep students and staff safe proposed by lawmakers and policymakers in the days and weeks ahead. Each of these ideas will need to be studied and discussed in a balanced and measured way. That said, it would be inappropriate for Dallas ISD to weigh in on each piece of legislation introduced until there is time to thoroughly review all of the possible consequences."

Still think that peanut butter and chocolate are the best combination you can possibly imagine? How about a Prager University course hosted by the ever so witty and wise Jonah Goldberg? Now that would be an unbeatable pairing. And it is with this new course on "social justice" featuring the aforementioned Mr. Goldberg.
In this week's video, author and columnist Jonah Goldberg tells you how to stump your left-wing friends: Ask them to define the term "social justice." That should be easy, right? After all, the term is everywhere: on websites and college campuses, in the mission statements of businesses and charities, and in United Nations reports.
As Mr. Goldberg explains, there is an Alice-in-Wonderland quality to the term "social justice": It means whatever its champions want it to mean. But there is one core idea that is always at the heart of social justice -- an idea that is so destructive and dangerous that the Nobel-prize winning economist F.A. Hayek wanted to dedicate the last years of his life making the term "social justice" shameful.
It truly doesn't get any better.

Note: | Citation/references: Published in: Photographic views of Japan / by Felice Beato ; with historical and descriptive notes compiled from authentic sources and from personal observation during a residence of several years by James William Murray, Assistant Commissary General. Yokohama : printed at the Japan Gazette Office, 1868. General: Title from album caption. Historical: Ernest Goodrich Stillman, the son of American financier and banker James Stillman, earned his BA from Harvard in 1908 and his MD from Columbia in 1913. He worked at the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research from 1915-1949. A generous benefactor of Harvard University, he had many interests, including photography and collecting Japanese art and literature. Regarded as the most famous Western photographer in Japan, Felice (or Felix) Beato arrived in Yokohama in 1863. Because of his military and diplomatic connections, he was able to travel and take photographs of places that were otherwise closed to foreigners. In 1866, a fire destroyed his studio and he reportedly spent several months early the next year taking new photographs that he published in the 1868 landmark two-volume Photographic Views of Japan with Historical and Descriptive Notes. In 1877, Beato sold his studio, stock, and negatives to Baron Raimund von Stillfried. He left Japan penniless in 1884. Beato's landscape views, genre works, and studio portraits established a precedent that influenced later Meiji era photographers. Provenance: Gift of E.G. Stillman to Widener Library, 1934, later transferred to the Fine Arts Library. |

Disposing of the body.
In this week's Throwback Thursday Soaps.com takes readers back to 2006/2007 when Phoebe Forrester met Shane McGrath, who later died and had his body disposed of by Ridge Forrester…
Maya just found out about Rick's true identity, but years ago, Ridge Forrester had a pretty good idea who Shane McGrath really was. Shane was homeless and witnessed Darla's accidental death. Planning to blackmail Taylor Forrester, Shane got hired as her landscaper and quickly became attracted to her daughter Phoebe. He changed his mind about the blackmail and stayed quiet. He couldn't believe the generosity of the Forresters, who paid for his medical bills and invited him into their home after he injured his hand. He even spoke on Taylor's behalf when the truth of her involvement in Darla's death came out.
Regardless, the family took notice of Shane's interest in Phoebe and barred him from seeing her. He became obsessed with Phoebe and pulled a gun on Ridge, who threatened to call the police on him. During a struggle, the gun went off and killed Shane. Ridge didn't want to be blamed for Shane's death and quickly disposed of his body.
Do you remember what Ridge did with Shane's body? Vote below.

Review: Kyocera Zio
Android's default web browser is based on WebKit and can render full HTML web sites. The browser is very capable and looks fantastic on the Zio's screen. You can use your finger to navigate around screens, or (attempt to) use the trackball to zoom through them. You can perform basic browsing with the phone in portrait or landscape orientation.
I like that the browser lets you open multiple windows at a time. This lets you jump around between different web sites quickly. The browser also supports Google's MyLocation feature, which will help provide local results when you perform searches.
AD article continues below...
As far as browser performance is concerned, it worked great over Wi-Fi. Over the 1x network I was able to find, web sites loaded very slowly.
CustomizeYou can customize the Zio about as much as you can customize any phone. Wallpapers and ringtones are easily altered. You can rearrange all of the menu items, clutter up the home screen with icons and more. What you can't do is change the basic theme of the Zio, such as the color combinations of the menus and screens. This is one area where I think Android needs to start making strides. Either Google's coding engineers need to do it, or the device makers and network operators need to step it up and put some themes and color options on there.
There are pretty robust ways to manage the security of the device, control how applications are managed, how the microSD slot is managed, how data is synchronized, how location information is reported and on and on.

I really like the colors in this photo, and the softness. I believe it would have been better composed if the girl was not centered in the frame. It's usually best to have more "space" in the area of the photo to where the subject is moving or looking.

Widmer-Schlumpf to Meet DoJ's Eric Holder Today on Swiss Banks
Zoe SchneeweissSwitzerland's Finance Minister Eveline Widmer-Schlumpf is meeting U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder in the U.S. today to discuss Swiss banks.
The meeting was supposed to take place in April during the International Monetary Fund and World Bank spring meetings and was rescheduled, Swiss Finance Ministry spokesman Roland Meier said by phone today.
The two countries signed an accord last year over how to punish Swiss financial institutions that used secret accounts to help American clients hide assets from U.S. tax authorities.
Credit Suisse Group AG is at risk of being criminally charged by U.S. and state prosecutors, a person familiar with the matter told Bloomberg News on April 29, signaling that authorities are taking a tougher approach as they seek to resolve probes of major banks. Credit Suisse is the largest of 14 Swiss banks under U.S. criminal investigation amid a crackdown on offshore tax evasion.
Today's talks are about Swiss banks and about the banking program, Meier said, declining to provide details.
Credit Suisse said in its quarterly report today that the DoJ investigation "remains outstanding."
Widmer-Schlumpf's meeting with Holder was reported earlier today by Swiss radio RSI.

Advertisement "The idea is to try and figure out whether or not the algorithms that are part of the system are able to tell the pilot when to turn in advance of something that could introduce a safety risk," Said NASA's senior advisor for unmanned and autonomous systems, Chuck Johnson. "You want to test the boundaries of that." Gee, ya think? Predator strike drone [Getty Images] Advertisement Bloomberg says NASA wants to prove it's safe to fly the big drones above 18,000 feet, letting them mingle in the same airspace as airliners and general aviation aircraft. The MQ-9 Predator B that will be used by NASA has a 66-foot wingspan, putting it about the same size as some private and commuter jets out there. Originally used as a surveillance platform, the Predator's capabilities have evolved to include air-to-ground missile strikes. In March, a much smaller hobby drone nearly collided with a U.S. Airways plane in Tallahassee, Florida. The tests being done by NASA will collect data on the Predator's sense-and-avoid capabilities. The tests will conclude in 2016, by which time the FAA will have announced official rules for drone operation within commercial airspace. NASA hopes that drones will be able to share the skies with airliners by 2018. Top image by the National Guard [Flickr / Creative Commons Commercial Use]Reply13 repliesLeave a reply

Umpires Alan Jones and Peter Hartley have admitted they might have got things wrong after failing to call the last delivery of the thrilling, rain-affected final a no-ball.
Jim Allenby's waist-high full toss was dispatched for six over mid-on by Nottinghamshire's Will Smith. The big hit merely reduced Leicestershire's winning margin to four runs, but had it been called a no-ball then Leicestershire might not this morning have been able to call themselves the undisputed kings of Twenty20.
First because Nottinghamshire would have been two runs to the better and they would have had another ball to get the three runs needed for victory.
Losing coach Mick Newell said: "It should have been called a no-ball, but I won't be mentioning it to the umpires. It was a tough situation and if they don't see it, they don't see it."
But Hartley, the standing umpire, admitted yesterday: "I wish I had called a no-ball because I saw it on TV this morning and it was one, albeit a marginal one.
"The fact that it was hit to mid-on influenced my judgement. It is difficult to hit a high ball down the ground."
Jones, at square leg, added: "Looking at it on TV last night it was a no-ball. It was a tight one, but it was a no-ball."
But the Foxes deserved victory. They boasted Darren Maddy, who became the first to pass 1,000 runs in the Twenty20 Cup, and they also had the best bowler, Stuart Broad.
Broad regards himself as an all-rounder, backed up by a couple of first-class fifties this season, and he is tipped for great things, including suggestions that he is in line for an Ashes trip this winter.
But although just 20, Broad, the son of former England and Nottinghamshire opener Chris, has his feet on the ground, even if at 6ft 7in he could be described as having his head in the clouds.
"I would love a trip to Australia," said Broad, "but I am aiming for an A tour place. That would be a great experience for me."
His captain Jeremy Snape said: "He has a very bright future. He has a great cricket brain on a very athletic and agile body. He is 6ft 7in, bowls at 87mph, swings the ball at pace and has great control. In short, he is a captain's dream."
Newell said: "I think he has a chance of playing for England sooner rather than later. It would not surprise me if he got an Ashes call-up this winter. I think he is a tremendous talent."
Earlier, Surrey and pre-tournament favourites Essex both lost rather feebly, the former's only consolation being left-arm spinner Nayan Doshi setting a record of most wickets in a season, 21, passing the previous mark set by former Brown Hats captain Adam Hollioake in 2004.
In that match, England wicketkeeper Chris Read lost a false front tooth when the ball deflected off Jon Batty's hip and caught him in the mouth, and Smith, smiter of that final six, took four catches and pulled off a superb run-out to dismiss Mark Butcher.

The celestial planet Conceyta orbits with its moon in a dust- and gas-covered solar system. Within lurks an evil unknown to man that bears a danger so much greater than any threat yet witnessed. A dark, mysterious power has manifested itself in the depths of the gas giant, absorbing life and technology, and assimilating all in its wake. Spacecraft, pilots, androids, and computers: Nothing is safe. No one can escape the virus that infects all life forms, turning once brave heroes and peaceful colonists alike into ravaging, chaotic forces, fighting each other and infecting more in the process. Soulless technology and hate-driven humanoids are all that's left of Earth's once-proud fleet. The galaxy as we know it is threatening to fall apart. War, death, and bedlam have taken hold of civilisation. Humankind is at the brink of extinction. Those who aren't yet infected--the resistance, a band of mercenaries, soldiers and civilians--are Earth's final hope, and they have one goal in common: To stop the deadly infection and destroy the core of all evil, hidden in the depths of Conceyta. Scouts have undertaken a merciless mission to bring detailed plans and data on the location of the power and its defence line in a last attempt to save humankind. So it has come to be that the last remaining pilot, a mercenary and bounty hunter, is the only chance of survival, ironically driven by the desire for wealth and fame. Left with little choice, the resistance has developed a star fighter capable of intercepting the evil force, equipped with a deadly weapon system and of utmost agility. With no time to lose, the 10th and final prototype of the ship is handed to the pilot. Its name: "Sldner-X". Should the pilot succeed, his name shall live on in the memories of man forever to come. And so the battle begins.

There's a complaint that often gets leveled against the Coen Brothers: that their movies are largely an excuse to make fun of characters that they don't like. I've never really agreed with that knock — but it's sort of how I felt watching Ben Wheatley's "Sightseers," a work of impressive craft and distressing content. It's a black comedy about a couple taking a holiday together through the British countryside. One is essentially a psychotic murderer, the other a woman with severely arrested development. When they're not having sex or visiting inane museums, they're murdering people who piss them off for the smallest of reasons — a dropped candy wrapper; a bit too much bragging; talking too loudly in a restaurant.
These two — Tina (Alice Lowe) and Chris (Steve Oram) — are deeply sick individuals. Tina still lives at home with her cranky mother; Chris claims to be a writer but the evidence onscreen suggests otherwise. They've only been dating for about a month, and this road trip will be the couple's first true test. But Wheatley treats their journey as one big joke, about their stupidity, their violence, their desperation, and about the world around them.
For some reason, I didn't feel like joining in on the fun; maybe I found them too sad to be amusing. All the attempted humor puts a wall between us and any true insight into the mind of the sort of person who would behave this way. I didn't really understand Tina and Chris, which meant I didn't want to laugh with them and I certainly felt uncomfortable laughing at them.
That doesn't mean Wheatley, a rising star in the world of international genre cinema thanks to previous films like "Down Terrace" and "Kill List," is as clueless as his characters — just that he might have miscalculated in this particular case. When he tones down the black comedy for brief periods, the movie suddenly springs to life. There is an amazing confrontation between Tina and Chris on the side of a road, after their relationship has hit a snag and Tina has run over a bicyclist just to prove a point. Now the conversation becomes refreshingly real, and the confrontation direct and exciting. "You're a serial killer!" Tina yells in a moment of frustration — and uncharacteristic self-awareness. It's a riveting moment, and one that hints at the far more interesting movie buried beneath the schtick. Wheatley also shows a deft hand with his use of music, montage, and onscreen violence.
I like to think I have a pretty good sense of humor, but it must be said that I was one of the few people at my screening of "Sightseers" — a surprise addition at Fantastic Fest — who didn't laugh hysterically. But something about the movie left me cold. The comedy often struck me as mean, not funny. I'm sure Wheatley didn't intend to mock his characters, but in opening them up to so much audience ridicule, he created something I didn't want to see.

Love the card you did!! The lovely snow flakes, the cute image... it's just perfect!! Hope you have a wonderful day sweetie!!

Now time seems more limited, shall we say... so I'm determined now, more than ever, to live life to the fullest and the way I want to!!!

I've had another go at making Blouse D from the Treasured Collection book. I lengthened the sleeves and bound them with self fabric bias binding as well as sewing the front pleats down as far as the waistline (I didn't need the top to look like maternity wear).
The fabric is a cotton voile bought from Spotlight early in January. I really like the colours of the print. I used the 18cm bias binding maker for the neck and sleeve bindings. I just love how this tool makes the pressing of the binding so accurate and easy.
The back view gives a better idea of the print.
And to stop the gape at the back neckline, I added a couple of small darts.
Loving the bias binding.

The continued endorsement of IBM certainly bodes well, but can Linux companies be successful investments? A company like Red Hat is one way for investors to measure the success of Linux companies. And while I even have my own doubts on the company's ability to achieve success, considering that it sells something that can be gotten for free, investors continue to keep these stocks on the radar.
On the heels of several other victories, Linux backers had cause for additional celebration yesterday after IBM (NYSE: IBM) announced it would spend $1 billion on the open source system in 2001 and a Linux clustered computer win with grease digger Shell Oil, a division of Royal Dutch Shell (NYSE: RD). And while the news shows continued momentum for the alternative operating system, its path toward commercial acceptance remains lengthy. At the eBusiness Conference and Expo, an industry trade show in New York, Big Blue CEO Louis Gerstner asserted that his company's commitment to Linux propels its efforts to break computing resources free of proprietary systems. IBM has made a commitment to Linux across all platforms, from personal computers to servers. To date, the company employs nearly 1,500 developers who are consulting customers and producing Linux versions of its products. The deal with Shell entails IBM building a bundle of Linux machines that can be linked together to act as one giant computer. Joining multiple computers is a much cheaper means of computing than building one gigantic supercomputer. According to CNET News.com the super computer will consist of 1,024 servers compacted in 32 racks and running on Red Hat's (Nasdaq: RHAT) Linux system. Just last week, there was an announcement that the largest telecommunications company and Internet service provider in Scandinavia, Telia, would switch to an IBM mainframe to run its business and consumer Internet services operations. According to the press release, Telia will replace its 70 existing Sun Microsystems (Nasdaq: SUNW) servers with a single IBM enterprise server, which will host more than 1500 Linux servers at once. What does this mean for Linux companies? The continued endorsement of IBM certainly bodes well. Today and in the past, IBM has acknowledged that the shift toward Linux is customer-driven and the byproduct of the unavoidable evolution of computing resources. That all sounds great, but the question remains: Can these companies be successful investments? Not long ago, Red Hat CEO Matthew Szulik spoke with the Motley Fool's David Gardner and identified several metrics -- including application availability, path-to-profitability, and the top-line -- as keys to measuring the company's success. Red Hat is arguably the cream of the crop among Linux companies, and with it due to report earnings Thursday, investors will be provided another opportunity to measure those factors. It will be critical to examine the number of application developers that are switching over to Red Hat Linux. I'll also be paying close attention to top-line growth, which will help indicate the commercial acceptance of Linux. In the most recent quarter (ended Aug. 31), Red Hat grew revenues year-over-year 76% and sequentially 15% to $18.5 million. Yesterday, shares traded up as much as 25%, ultimately gaining 17% on the IBM news and speculation that it would meet or exceed estimates. The Street consensus calls for Red Hat to report a net loss of $0.02 per share, and the company predicts it will reach profitability sometime in calendar year 2001. It's important to point out that Red Hat appears to be making solid progress toward this goal with gross margins improving over the last four quarters. Check out this sequential progress: 41.1%, 47.4%, 54.0%, and 57.8%. A company like Red Hat is one way for investors to measure the success of the Linux companies and the operating system itself.
While today's news clearly indicates Big Blue's efforts to combat its slowing growth against competitors like Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) and EMC (NYSE: EMC) in software and storage, respectively -- and the biggest pain of all, Sun Microsystems -- perhaps the more interesting question is to examine what all of this means for the Linux companies, such as Red Hat and VA Linux (Nasdaq: LNUX). Monday, I noted that many Linux companies are banking on growth in embedded software, attempting to thwart the current leader Wind River (Nasdaq: WIND).

This isn't quite like the time Sammy Davis, Jr. landed one on Archie Bunker, but it's close. Neil Gaiman's Sutherland Lecture–"What the @#$%&*! Is a Children's Book, Anyway?"– was a big sold-out success, and we'll be bringing it to you this fall in the Horn Book Magazine. Meanwhile, I thought I would share my introduction.
Here in the children's book world, we tend to regard strangers with suspicion. By "children's book world" I mean children's librarians, children's book publishers, teachers, writers, and artists. I mean many of the people in this room as well as the spirits of those who have gone before, like our own Zena Sutherland, and Neil Gaiman's friend Diana Wynne Jones, all the great ladies and gentlemen whose work in this world continues beyond their passing.
By "strangers" I mean a couple of things. We are protective of children's books, as we are protective of children. Sometimes, the children do not like this, when we seek to protect them—and/or ourselves—from interlopers like television or, back in the day, Nancy Drew and comic books. Such media were hardly strangers to children but we would do our best to keep them outside our gates. Even Zena, probably the least tightly corseted of her generation of great library ladies, taught us at the University of Chicago that while there was nothing really wrong with comic books, not one dime of a library's money should be spent on them. That money and our professional attention were to be devoted to real and good children's books, preferably those recommended by her Bulletin.
What we used to refer to (with a straight face, if you can believe it) as sub-literature is one stranger we'd like to turn away; another is the celebrity author. Yes, of course, we have our own celebrity authors, many of whom have graced this lecture series, starting with Maurice Sendak as the first Sutherland lecturer back in 1983. But I'm talking about those celebrities who are celebrities for something else: singers, models, stars of reality TV shows. Or those celebrities who are genuine authors justly renowned for another kind of writing, but whose brains go on vacation when the prospect of a children's book is dangled before them. As if nothing could be simpler. When Frederick Melcher established the Newbery Medal in 1921 in part as a way to lure respected adult writers into writing for children, surely he did not have in mind Toni Morrison's Peeny Butter Fudge.
So what are we to do with Neil Gaiman, author of bestselling adult novels AND comic books for years before his first novel for children, Coraline, was published in 2002? Perhaps already a legend in some circles, how would this interloper fare with our notoriously demanding crowd? Would we kick the pup to the curb?
Not a bit of it. Coraline was neither dismissed as arriviste trash nor greeted with starstruck rapture; instead, we did something better: we took it seriously. This gothic tale of a girl who finds herself in a frightening mirror-world was unsettling, certainly, but for all the right reasons. The terrors of the book—eyes made from buttons, a disembodied hand, a mother who is not your mother—were sincerely evoked and honestly earned. From the nods the book made to Lewis Carroll and to Lucy Clifford's "The New Mother," it was clear that Neil Gaiman was at home in children's literature: you could tell that he knew and respected It and thus us.
This same knowledge and respect would be demonstrated in the several books for children that have followed: folklore's favored villain in The Wolves in the Walls, Norse mythology in Odd and the Frost Giants, the venerable form of Gaiman and Gris Grimly's The Dangerous Alphabet: "E's for the Evil that lures and entices; F is for Fear and its many devices." And there is of course the Newbery and Carnegie Medal-winning The Graveyard Book, playing homage to generations of children's literature's honorable orphans, most notably Kipling's Mowgli. Like The Graveyard Book's young hero Bod, Neil Gaiman's books have been nurtured by ghosts of most distinguished lineage and powerful effect.
If you read Gaiman's adult novels or his comics, you can easily see that his work for children is no byway, no boring bedtime story Celebrity Author X has inflicted on his own kids for years and now chooses to bestow upon the world. Neil Gaiman instead helps us to understand that children's literature is not a term defined by who its intended audience is, but by its form. The differences between The Sandman and American Gods and The Graveyard Book aren't defined by who reads them but by the demands of their very distinct shapes. You can—and Gaiman has—write about ghosts and gods and terror and loneliness in any number of forms, respecting and challenging the traditions of each. If you're good at it—and Gaiman is—your work will earn you welcome even among the very . . . particular . . . people I know are assembled here tonight. So please join me in welcoming this Stranger Come to Town, Neil Gaiman.

Hector Hugh Munro , better known by the pen name Saki, was a British writer, whose witty and sometimes macabre stories satirized Edwardian society and culture. He is considered a master of the short story and is often compared to O. Henry and Dorothy Parker. His tales feature delicately drawn characters and finely judged narratives. "The Open Window" may be his most famous, with a closing line that has entered the lexicon.
In addition to his short stories he also wrote a full-length play, The Watched Pot, in collaboration with Charles Maude; two one-act plays; a historical study, The Rise of the Russian Empire, the only book published under his own name; a short novel, The Unbearable Bassington; the episodic The Westminster Alice , and When William Came, subtitled A Story of London Under the Hohenzollerns, an early alternative history. He was influenced by Oscar Wilde, Lewis Carroll, and Kipling, and himself influenced A. A. Milne, Noël Coward, and P. G. Wodehouse

The word around the Milwaukee Brewers' clubhouse is not to fret over Mike Cameron and his sore left knee.
The centerfielder missed his second consecutive game Sunday with the soreness, but manager Ned Yost said Cameron would probably be back in the lineup tonight against the Cincinnati Reds.
Cameron hurt the knee Friday when he slipped on some loose grass in the outfield.
"The grass let go or something and he tweaked it a little bit," Yost said. "He can go; he can play on it. It's not an unplayable deal, but we'll let it calm down a bit. (Gabe Kapler) has been swinging the bat good. I imagine 'Cam' will be back in there (tonight)."
Yost wouldn't go into any greater detail than that other than to say the sore knee wasn't a big deal.
Cameron has been pretty hot during the last month or so. Over his last 27 games, he is hitting .337 (33 for 98) with eight home runs and 20 runs batted in. And of course, he brings his glove every day, so losing him for any extended period of time during the final month of the regular season could be a blow.
His absence is eased somewhat by Kapler, who has started 25 games in center field this season while Cameron was out for ailments, a day off or his suspension at the start the season.
Kapler's defense isn't as strong as Cameron's, but he is hitting .301 in 225 at-bats with eight homers and 38 RBI. He has proved to be an asset off the bench this season after taking a full season off in 2007 to manage a minor-league affiliate of the Boston Red Sox.
"Doug has been trying to get him for years, since I first got here," Yost said, referring to general manager Doug Melvin. "Doug's known him and liked him. Every time he's come available, Doug's tried to sign him. So I knew that he was a good player, that he played the game right, that he was ready to play every single day."
Serious pain: In the second inning of the victory Saturday, right-hander Ben Sheets hit a nubber off the end of the bat and the vibration caused him to lose the feeling in his fingers for a while.
Yost said Sheets' hands were shaking uncontrollably when he came back to the dugout and his face turned pale.
When Sheets went back out to the mound, he crouched in front of it and waited to regain some feeling. Yost went out to make sure plate umpire Fieldin Culbreth knew that Sheets would require some extra time before being able to get back on the hill.
Sheets threw a couple of wild warm-up pitches but eventually got the feeling back and went on to shut out the Padres.
"He had as much time as he wanted (to recover)," Yost said. "(The umpire) didn't want anybody getting domed. You don't want a guy thrown 95 mph with no feeling in his fingers. That's why I went out there.
"That hurts so bad in your fingers, it just reverberates all through your body. It's like a live nerve ending in your fingers and it just hurts to even move them when you get it that good. . . . It was really bad in the dugout."
Still being careful: Yost has been fairly strict with his bullpen policy of not allowing his relievers to pitch more than three consecutive days, and just because his bullpen is fresh in September — thanks to the starters getting deep into games — it doesn't mean he is going to wear out his bullpen now.
"You know going into (games) that everybody is available," Yost said. "There haven't been many days where you got one or two or even three guys that aren't available because they've been overused the last couple days.
"You still can't over-abuse your bullpen on a day-to-day basis. You can do it to a point like we are now in September. But you can't throw them five days in a row."

STARKVILLE -- Tailback Anthony Dixon will not be a forgotten man in the spread offense of new Mississippi State football coach Dan Mullen.
It is Mullen''s hope that the former 1,000-yard rusher will be again next fall his senior season.
Mullen said there is a misconception that a running game is not important in the spread, but he begs to differ.
"We''re going to be a big running team," Mullen said. "In our version of the spread offense, we''re going to be balanced 50-50. Really, all the spread offense is about is trying to make the defense defend the entire field."
Mullen and running backs coach Greg Knox expect Dixon to be a valuable weapon for the offense. That could mean Dixon will be more of a part of the passing game than he has been in the past.
Knox said any lingering frustration that Dixon may have had following last season''s 4-8 record hasn''t been evident during offseason conditioning.
"Through the winter workouts, he''s shown a lot of mental toughness," Knox said. "We know he has the physical skills, but the mental part is really showing up. We''ve been pleased with his work habits and we''re just looking forward to getting him out there this spring and working with him."
Mississippi State begins spring practice at 3:30 p.m. Tuesday and the workouts are open to the public so fans can see for themselves where Dixon stands.
Dixon reported back to school in January at 255 pounds and finished up offseason conditioning at 235. He played at 240 last season.
It doesn''t matter to Mullen how much weight Dixon carries as long as he is in shape and able to perform.
"I want him to be as big and strong as he can be and as fast as he can be," Mullen said. "Whatever weight that is, if he can handle 235, that''s great, but if he can bulk up and handle 245, that''s great. If he can''t, we''ll have him drop down. There''s not an exact weight we want him, but we want him to be in great physical shape."
Dixon''s numbers have been up and down while playing for former MSU coach Sylvester Croom.
In 12 games and five starts as a freshman, Dixon had 169 carries for 668 yards and nine touchdowns, and then had 287 carries, 1,066 yards and 14 touchdowns in 13 games and 12 starts as a junior.
Last season for the Bulldogs, Dixon''s totals dipped to 197 carries, 869 yards and seven touchdowns in 12 games, all starts.
Mullen has confidence that Knox will get the most out of Dixon and the other running backsr.
It is a challenge Knox accepts with great excitement and is happy to be a part of what he considers to be a "goldmine" at Mississippi State.
"Over the past 14 years, I''ve been in the Southeastern Conference, I''ve always watched this program," Knox said. "I think we have a great leader in coach Mullen. He''s a great coach and offensive mind. I think the future is bright."
Prior to joining the Bulldogs, Knox spent 10 years as wide receivers coach and recruiting coordinator at Auburn. His other SEC experience was at Ole Miss (1995-98), but he has also coached at Texas Christian and Stephen F. Austin.
Knox is one of eight new assistant coaches on Mullen''s staff and he said there continues to be a time of adjustment.
"Everyone is getting on the same page," Knox said. "I think coach Mullen has done a great job of laying out what we need to get done and what we need to get accomplished. He has left it up to us to get it done.
"It will be an exciting time for this program, this staff and these kids. They''ve worked hard and I think they are very excited about the spring."

Coordinates: | 30.2760 N 84.1488 W |
No: | 241 (list of all attractions) |
Category: | Springs, Caves |
Values: | Geology |
Rank: | 7 |
Address: | North America, United States, Florida, Leon County, 11 km south-east from Woodville. |
Type: | River rise |
Average discharge: | 14,700 l/s |
Cave length: | ~ 3,000 m |
As it is usual with many Floridan rivers, St. Marks River sometimes disappears underground to emerge on the surface shortly after. The last such rise before entering into the Gulf of Mexico is St. Marks River Rise.
Is it a spring or not?
Technically this is spring pf the 1st magnitude. Average discharge of this giant spring is 14,700 l/s and it starts as a 130 m wide river. Only four other springs in Florida have higher discharge – and Florida has some of the largest springs worldwide.
River rises though seem not to be true springs. Water of river rises is not lucid and clean, as it is with true springs. After all this is just a river, which has passed some distance underground.
What happens below the ground?
St. Marks River submerges at Natural bridge – true natural bridge, famous site of important battle in American Civil War.
Afterwards the river flows underground for approximately 1.1 km until the Rise. In between the river reappears on the surface several more times.
Woodwille Karst Plain Project in 2006 spent some time researching this part of St. Marks River. It turns out that several underwater caves join the river, bringing in additional streams and thus increasing the power of the stream in the river. Joint length of these explored passages is more than 3 km.
Future protected area?
The area around Natural Bridge and St. Marks Rise is not entirely wilderness - here and there are built houses and the forest is dissected with roads. Nevertheless the hardwood hammock has been preserved here.
The land around the sink and rise belongs to several owners and soner or later there will be a possibility, and, lets hope, a wish to purchase it and to create a nature protected area.
See St. Marks River Rise on the map of Florida!

Bill Foster is Running for Re-Election as Mayor of St. Petersburg
Commentary by GH Khan
The nonpartisan race for Mayor of St. Petersburg matters, and the time has come for conservatives of all stripes to fully and without reservation back the re-election of Bill Foster for Mayor of St. Petersburg.
That is the message emerging from a series of polls that show Foster trailing challengers Kathleen Ford and Rick Kriseman in the run-up to the August 27 St. Petersburg primary. Conservatives need to set aside their disappointments with Foster over his often folksy, rather ambiguous, and sometimes downright mushy approach to many of the issues facing our fair city. In particular, conservatives will have to overlook His Honor's deficient leadership over issues surrounding The Pier.
This is a nonpartisan race with far-ranging consequences. The chief executive of Florida's third-largest city has influence far beyond City Hall, and far beyond the city limits. This means that the more conservative the mayor is the more favorable the political environment will be for conservatives and their ideas, and that is why this race matters to conservatives.
It is extremely unlikely at this point that any candidate in the mayor's race will receive the required 50% of the vote plus one to win the race in the August 27 St. Petersburg Primary, which means that there will be a November run-off between the two top vote getters. The two biggest threats to Foster's re-election are Ford and Kriseman. The other two candidates in the race, Anthony Cates and Paul Congemi, are unlikely to have any statistically significant impact on the race. Ford and Kriseman each show stronger polling strength than Foster, and Foster will have to beat at least one of them in the primary in order to be in the running in the November election. Kriseman, an unremarkable garden-variety liberal Democrat, is seen by some as more beatable by Foster in November than remarkable progressive Democrat Ford would be, making Ford the candidate Foster must best in the primary.
To know Bill Foster is to like him. The Mayor has done a lot of good campaigning to date, and has garnered a lot of important endorsements, but there is a lot more to be done. Foster needs to shore up his base and, to the extent possible, expand his appeal to other voters. He needs to send to voters a sharp, clear message of accomplishments and the path he will take to further accomplishments in his next term. He needs to define his candidacy and the issues of the election, and not cede the initiative to his challengers to define things for him: E.g., The Pier is only one of many issues facing St. Petersburg voters, and not the most important one in this election. No more muddled, ambiguous pandering that appeals to all and satisfies none. He needs to reconnect to social conservatives of all types, and not just the local Republican hierarchy (Foster is a Republican). He badly needs to repair his relationship with St. Petersburg's African-American community, which has a history of being very forgiving of political trespassing. He needs to raise a boatload of money and use it to saturate the available media with his improved message. Perhaps Foster also needs a new consultant, one who has an intimate understanding of the politics of The Burg and can generate a winning strategy that will get Foster through the primary and on to victory in November.
So, what's not to like about Ford?
Kathleen Ford has unsuccessfully run for Mayor of St. Petersburg twice previously, losing the first time to Rick Baker and losing the second time to Bill Foster. She has previously served on the City Council. Ford is presently riding a wave of notoriety arising from her litigation over The Pier. This will give her an edge with many of the voters who will be voting on The Pier in the August primary. This popularity is, however, very thin and is undercut by several of Ford's strong negatives. To know Kathleen Ford is to have strong feelings about her; indeed, one of the jokes going around town lately is that "Will Rogers never met Kathleen Ford."* Ford has been described as being self-righteous, condescending and rude to those who disagrees with her. She also has been criticized for being reluctant to admit when she is wrong, and being given to blame others for her failings, as when in her 2009 campaign for mayor she disingenuously tried to blame her use of the racially offensive term "HNIC" on the radio host who was interviewing her when she used it. It was this insensitivity and ignorance that earned Ford condemnation from distinguished St. Petersburg Times columnist Bill Maxwell and effectively destroyed her bid for mayor that year. Her overall judgment and competency as an attorney is also questionable in light of the debacle she made of her lawsuit against the City of St. Petersburg over the closing of The Pier, in which she made an ill-fated attempt to join as "indispensable parties" in the suit the more than 15,000 persons who signed the petition to get The Pier on the August ballot.
Ford also has been accused of being self-serving, and some have opined that Ford's initiation of this ill-fated lawsuit was just a gimmick to get her name in the press and heighten her visibility prior to her run for mayor. She also has been accused of being a loose cannon, which is one of the main reasons that the pro-abortion group Ruth's List Florida will not back her in this election, despite her credentials as a progressive.For conservatives, there is a lot about Ford to dislike. During the June 28 mayoral candidate debate sponsored by the NAACP, Ford prattled on about, among other things, the need for "affordable" (read: taxpayer-funded) housing, her opposition to police chases, and her belief in (Republican) voter suppression. In past elections Ford has been enthusiastically supported by the SEIU, the Suncoast Sierra Club, and the Florida National Organization of Women Political Action Committee. Ford can fairly be described as a pandering progressive who favors big government with an authoritarian bent, making it very unlikely that she would be willing to work with members of the City Council to forge the sort of consensus that allows city government to serve its citizens effectively.
There is not much time left for conservatives to get in the game. St. Petersburg has chosen not to do early voting, but voting by mail is an option. The deadline to mail ballots to overseas and absent military voters is July 13; the deadline to begin to mail ballots to domestic voters is July 23. The voter registration deadline is July 27. The polls open on August 27 at 7:00 AM and close at 7:00 PM. Don't forget to bring some identification.
* American humorist Will Rogers is famously quoted as having said that he never met a man he didn't like.

Political Warfare and the Mainstream Media Hatchet Job
One of the most enduring and effective weapons employed by the radical statists who comprise the mainstream media (MSM) is the political "hatchet job." Wielded for decades with near-impunity by the MSM against conservatives, Republicans, and other political enemies, the hatchet job has been a potent force for the Left in its efforts to reduce or eliminate political debate at the national, state, and local levels. This article is a primer for conservatives and members of the New Media on what a hatchet job is and how it is employed.
Hatchet Job Defined
A hatchet job is a biased, maliciously destructive, and often cruel written or spoken critique or attack on the character or activities of a person, organization, or institution. In its most common form, a hatchet job comprises a printed attempt disparage, discredit, and ultimately destroy a targeted person's or organization's reputation in the eyes of the public and to deny the target public sympathy or support through the use of innuendo, inaccuracies, and misleading statements. It is also used for the inherently undemocratic purpose of intimidating and stifling political opposition or dissent.
The hatchet job is a work of pseudo-journalist art, psychological warfare, and political disinformation. Hatchet jobs are in derogation of the ethical rule that journalists should always be honest, fair and courageous in gathering, reporting and interpreting information.1 While some hatchet jobs are one-time efforts, many are part of a sustained political campaign. The smear campaign waged by the MSM against Sarah Palin is an example of the latter. Few are blatant, and most are quite subtle. Sometimes, for example, a direct accusation against the target is merely the carrier for darker and more ominous insinuations. In many more cases, however, factual errors, innuendo, and implications of wrongdoing are placed alongside, and draw plausibility from, scattered truths to create a grossly distorting effect on the reader or viewer.

Comments about Instinct Duck Meal - 11 oz:
I am a big fan of "Instinct" and love these biscuits- they smell like "real" cookies so you know they're good. My dog loves these and would eat them all day if we let her. Great quality and yes it is more expensive but it is worth every penny when you have a highly allergic puppy! We even crumble 1-2 and mix it with her food on days when she doesnt want to eat.
