People may tout the fact that absolutely nothing ever bothers them, but many are hiding their true feelings. Quite often, even people around them never see they are troubled. Some women, and men, only want their strengths to be seen and they don't want others to see any type of weakness they're experiencing. This is particularly true when a family event is happening right now. It could be the death of a beloved member of the family, or the birth of a gorgeous baby. Either one can cause serious disruptions that were never expected.
Doing the Right Thing
Very few people get through life without experiencing a magnitude of problems. It could be the loss of a job, parent, child, or their home. Many people deal with sickness where they unexpectedly, must care for a loved one. If they don't know what kind of care their parent or child needs to have, they should make a phone call to a local agency or view a website that offers help so they can do the right thing at the right time.
Life Changes
When a baby is born, especially the first baby, a couple's life changes drastically. No longer is their time to languish in bed on the weekend. Now, a baby needs fed, bathed, played with, taken to the doctor, and it seems that every minute revolves around them. This can cause quite a bit of anguish for a man or woman because they begin to feel left out. When a new baby is born, a parent is expected to immediately mold themselves into the perfect parent, but that usually doesn't happen.
Reading Materials and Websites
Today, there are countless ways to learn how to care for a baby or a sickly parent. There are websites with people who have years of experience, and they're ready to help make life easier. When individuals read this for more info, it shows they want to make certain their loved one is safe and secure. They need to realize they're not the only one seeking help and they're not the only one who's intimidated and afraid to face their home life situation. There are people who can show new parents and the family care giver how important they are to the one who needs them.

Besides all the Windows 7 flavours we told you about, Bloomberg is reporting that there won't just be one Windows 7 Netbook Edition, there will "several editions." What the eff.
Let's just say, conservatively, that "several" netbook editions means four of them. (A couple would be two, a few would be 3-4, so several, to us, means at least four.) We already had six on the table: Starter, Home Basic, Home Premium, Professional, Enterprise and Ultimate. True, the average consumer won't see be a few of these, but if Bloomberg is right, that still means there will be 10 versions of Windows 7 running around. What happened to keeping things simple?

Our experts have plenty of experience when it comes to Creditors Voluntary Liquidation and we can offer you plenty of advice and information.
The cost of liquidation can be expensive. This is why it is important to explore your options prior. Our team can help you decide whether liquidation is the right choice for you. To find out more, please fill in our contact form.
If you would like details on CVL liquidation your best option would be to speak with one of our experts. Complete the contact form now for more information.
If you are interested in finding out more about creditors voluntary liquidation in Gloucestershire GL4 5 and the benefits of this, you've come to the right place.
What happens when your business has amassed so much debt that it can no longer trade and the only option left is to close it? Can closing a company possibly have advantages? How much will it cost to go down this route? Is it the only liquidation option available to you?
You may have thought about administration or CVA's https://www.businessdebts.org.uk/administration-cva/gloucestershire/ although this may not be the best option for you.
The following article looks at answering these questions and will leave you with a better understanding of what a CVL order would mean for your company.
Let's begin with the obvious question, 'What is creditors voluntary liquidation?.' CVL is when a business has crippling debts that they cannot afford to pay back and a decision needs to be made about what happens next.
The Director of the company would chair a meeting with its shareholders and put the idea forward of approving a CVL. This would mean that the business would go into liquidation and be closed down. Its assets would be sold, and anything raised from these sales would go towards paying the debts off.
If there is any money left after the debts had been paid then it would be split amongst the shareholders.
In order for a CVL to be approved, 75% of the shareholders must agree to the 'winding up resolution' https://www.businessdebts.org.uk/winding-up/gloucestershire/ for it to be approved by the Courts.
Once the shareholders have agreed, you must find an Insolvency Practitioner and send your CVL resolution to the Companies House in under 15 days. You must also advertise it in the London Gazette within 2 weeks.
The liquidation of a company in Gloucestershire GL4 5 has the power to not only affect the business itself but that of the local community and surrounding areas too. The CVL of a company can sometimes have a knock-on effect to businesses nearby as consumers panic and lose faith that the epidemic might spread to other businesses in that area.
Of course, the two are unrelated but that doesn't stop consumers from being wary about where they choose to purchase from.
One of the big disadvantages of this action is that the voluntary liquidation costs can be expensive. If the business is struggling for money as it is then you'll need to think long and hard about the associated costs that go with applying for a CVL.
The fees for submitting the petition and paying the Insolvency Practitioner come to roughly £1,900, although this can vary substantially. This figure will come out of the sales of your assets. This obviously means that there is less money in the pot to pay your creditors back with.
There are three different types of liquidation available to faltering companies;

Adventure and redemption are the theme of the new West Coast premiere of The Burnt Part Boys - a story about the Appalachia region coal miners of the 1960s and the children they leave behind.
Struggling with the death of his father, 14 year old Peter (Daniel David Stewart) is determined not to see the mine opened again and especially sure that his older brother Jake (Aaron Scheff) will not return to the mine to work. Accompanied by his best friend Dusty ( Adam Dingerman) and their wild country friend Frances (Lauren Patten) , the threesome hike up the mountain. They are followed by Jake and his friend, Chet (Joe Donahoe.)
Only by accident do the children meet up with the ghosts of their fathers -- Matt Musgrove, Philip Dean Lightstone, Richard Hellstern, and Rich Brunner.
Directed by Richard Israel, this coming of age story follows a group of teens in West Virginia's coal country as they make their life-altering journey to the burnt part section of the closed down coal mines, which took the lives of their fathers. Going up the mountain they are children, but they come down as adults.
The book by Mariana Elder was enhanced by the music of Chris Miller and the lyrics of Nathan Tysen sang out the story. Acting was superb. I especially enjoyed young Adam Dingerman as Pete's best friend.
Out of a 10, I gave the play an 8. I think I would have enjoyed the play more if the acoustics were better in the auditorium. At times, the music, which has a inherent joy to it, drowned out the voices of the actor singers and overpowered the story. There was no intermission so the tension of the play was not dispelled by the break. Despite that the heart warming story touches you and makes you care about these young kids searching for a way to honor their fathers and find peace within themselves.
For those who are disabled, there is no elevator and only stairs up to the second floor theatre.
The play runs until October 20, 2013 at the Third Street Theatre ( 8115 W 3rd St., LA 90048). Call 323 655 9232 for tickets. Prices for these run between $24 and $34 (the later being for reserved seating.) Children under 16 cost only $15 if an adult ticket is purchased with it. (Use the promo code KIDS.)

Tortilla Bean Pie
This dish tastes much too good to be good for you, but it is. The beans provide protein and fiber. I've served it over and over at my house, and we never tire of it.—Terri Webber, Miami, Florida.

- Wrap tortillas in foil; bake at 350° for 10 minutes. Unwrap; place one tortilla in a greased 9-in. deep-dish pie plate. Layer with a third of the bean mixture.

Lead a group of high school students with a dangerous extracurricular activity: exploring the mysterious tower Tartarus and fighting the sinister Shadows during the Dark Hour, a frozen span of time imperceptible to all but a select few. However, the end of their quest is no longer the end of the story--witness for the first time the aftermath of the final battle and the students' struggle to find meaning in their new lives.
A spin-off of the RPG Persona, Fes (or "Festival of Persona 3") consists of Persona 3's content along with 30 hours of additional gameplay. The new gameplay comes primarily in the form of the "Gojitsudan," a story sequence that comes after the original's ending, with new cinematic sequences in addition to the added gameplay. While the main storyline is the same, it's been tuned up with new events. Gameplay has been updated as well, with a new "hard" setting (the original had just easy and normal), 23 new Personas, a weapon synthesis system and a system for changing your characters' clothes.

Illinois tops Gardner-Webb by slimmest of margins
Illini win with 3-pointer with six seconds remaining
CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — Illinois 63, Gardner-Webb 62: Tyler Griffey drained a 3-pointer with six seconds remaining and the host Fighting Illini survived a battle from the Runnin' Bulldogs in a game that saw four lead changes in the final minute of regulation.
Illinois (7-0) was clinging to a 58-56 lead when Kevin Hartley nailed a 3-pointer to give Gardner-Webb (4-4) the advantage with 57 seconds remaining. Brandon Paul, who had 13 points, put the hosts ahead 60-59 when he connected on a jumper with 43 seconds left.
Tashan Newsome, who had made only three 3-pointers all season, hit one with 16 seconds left to give Gardner-Webb a 62-60 advantage. Illinois called a timeout with 11 seconds remaining, setting the stage for Griffey's heroics.
Newsome, who finished with 11 points, missed a long 3 just before the final buzzer. Joseph Bertrand and D.J. Richardson had 13 points apiece for Illinois.
Donta Harper scored a game-high 16 points to lead the Runnin' Bulldogs and Max Landis chipped in 10 as Gardner-Webb just came up short of its second win in the state of Illinois in two weeks. The Runnin' Bulldogs upset DePaul 71-59 on Nov. 15.
GAME NOTEBOOK: Illinois, which came into the game leading the nation in 3-point field goals (11.5), made a season-low seven. … The Fighting Illini also had their streak snapped of consecutive games scoring at least 75 points. … Gardner-Webb coach Chris Holtmann played college basketball with Illinois coach John Groce at Taylor University and was a part of Groce's staff at Ohio from 2008-10.

If you have been reading the site lately, you are well aware that I have started a daily column, The Numbers Game, which looks at past and current players in the Brewers organization based on their jersey numbers, including the 1969 Seattle Pilots, the team that would become the Brewers. That column will return tomorrow. Today I wanted to share something interesting that I discovered while doing my research over the past week: There are no Milwaukee Brewers cards that appear in the 1970 Topps baseball card set, however there are Seattle Pilots cards, cardboard representations of a team that never was.
So how did this happen? It's a simple timing issue really. Every year Topps releases Series 1 of their baseball product prior to the start of the regular season. It's an appetizer, if you will, to the upcoming baseball season. Due to the lead time required to get all images approved and printed, any last minute transactions, or in this case changes in name and venue, would not be able to be accounted for, thus cards for a team that never played a single inning. According to Chris Olds, editor of Beckett Baseball, this is one of two incidents like this, the other being in 1974 when some San Diego Padres cards were printed with "Washington Nat'l Lea." on them.
To give you an idea of how small of a window the change in ownership created, the Pilots were officially declared bankrupt on April 1, 1970. The Brewers would play their first official home game at Milwaukee's County Stadium on April 7th, 1970, a mere six days later.
Below is a checklist/breakdown of every player that appears in the set in a Pilots uniform and where they actually played in 1970:
# 2 Diego Sequi – Played for Oakland
# 31 Marty Pattin – Played for Milwaukee
# 53 John Kennedy – Played for Milwaukee to begin the year before being sold to Boston on June 26th, 1970.
# 88 Pilots Rookies (Miguel Fuentes & Dick Baney) – Probably the most tragic card of the set, Fuentes not only threw the final pitch for the Pilots in 1969, but was murdered during the off-season in his native Puerto Rico by a bar patron who thought Fuentes was relieving himself on his car. Baney, who also appears on the card, did not play in the majors in 1970.
#111 Mike Hegan – Played for Milwaukee
#134 Danny Walton RC – Played for Milwaukee
#158 Jerry McNertney – Played for Milwaukee
#185 Don Mincher – Played for Oakland
#224 Steve Barber – Played for both Chicago (NL) and Atlanta
#249 Bob Locker – Played for Milwaukee to begin the year before being sold to Oakland on June 15th, 1970.
#271 Greg Goossen – Played for Milwaukee to begin the year before being sold to Washington on July 14th, 1970.
#289 Gene Brabender – Played for Milwaukee
#323 Wayne Comer – Played for Milwaukee to begin the year before being traded to Washington on May 11th, 1970 for Hank Allen and Ron Theobald.
#359 Phil Roof – Played for Milwaukee
#370 Tommy Harper – Played for Milwaukee. Harper is the only player to be named to the 1970 American League All-Star squad from Milwaukee.
#393 John Gelnar – Played for Milwaukee
#418 John Donaldson – Played for Oakland
#441 John O'Donoghue – Played for Milwaukee to begin the year before being traded to Montreal on June 15th, 1970 for Jose Hererra.
#473 Don Bryant – Played for Houston
#499 Skip Lockwood – Played for Milwaukee
#514 Steve Hovley RC – Played for Milwaukee to begin the year before being traded to Oakland for Al Downing and Tito Francona on June 11th, 1970.
#533 Buzz Stephen RC – Did not play in the majors in 1970. MLB experience consists of 2 games with the Twins in 1968 in which he went 1-1 with a 4.76 ERA.
#556 Dave Bristol (MGR) – Managed for Milwaukee
#574 Bobby Bolin – Played for Milwaukee to begin the year before being traded to Boston for Al Yates on September 10th, 1970.
#596 Mike Hershberger – Played for Milwaukee
#613 Dave Baldwin – Played for Milwaukee
#652 Rich Rollins – Played for Milwaukee to begin the year before being released on May 13th, 1970 and signed by Cleveland the same day.
#667 Bob Meyer – Played for Milwaukee
#688 Ted Kubiak – Played for Milwaukee
#713 Pilots Team Card
If you would like to see what the cards look like, high quality scans of both the fronts and backs are available here. I'll be back tomorrow with Part 7 of The Numbers Game.

What is Tetralogy of Fallot?
How is Tetralogy of Fallot treated?
What are the signs and symptoms of Tetralogy of Fallot?
Diagnosing Tetralogy of Fallot
Helpful resources
Tetralogy of Fallot is a congenital heart condition that involves the incorrect formation of the septum between the right and left ventricles. This condition results in mixing of oxygen-rich and oxygen-poor blood across the ventricular septal defect inside the heart. This causes an overall decrease in the amount of oxygen in the blood.
The four functional heart problems that make up a tetralogy of Fallot are:
Tetralogy of Fallot is a congenital heart defect, meaning children are born with it. The cause of the condition is not known. In some situations, it may be associated with certain genetic syndromes, like Di George syndrome.
Children usually show symptoms of the condition and are diagnosed shortly after birth. With treatment, kids with tetralogy of Fallot can lead normal, healthy lives. However, if your child has tetralogy of Fallot, he or she will need follow-up care to monitor any changes in the heart.
Surgery is the only definitive treatment for children with tetralogy of Fallot. Your doctors will likely schedule your child's surgery by the time he or she turns one year old.
During the surgery, a pediatric cardiac surgeon will fix the hole between the ventricles (the ventricular septal defect) using a patch. The surgeon will also widen the pulmonary artery and fix any problems with the pulmonary valve. This repair will help more blood reach the lungs. The entire procedure is known as intra-cardiac repair.
If your child is too ill or too small for intra-cardiac repair, surgeons will create a temporary solution called a shunt. This is a bypass from the aorta to the pulmonary artery, which will increase blood flow to the lungs until your child is big enough for the final procedure.
Children with this heart condition often have a blue tint to their skin, lips and fingernails. This is called cyanosis and means that not enough oxygen-rich blood is reaching the child's body.
Sometimes, a baby only shows signs of cyanosis after crying or feeding. These episodes are called "Tet spells."
Other symptoms of tetralogy of Fallot are:
If your child is having any of these symptoms, especially cyanosis, contact us immediately.
If us suspects your child has a congenital heart defect, he or she will want to do more tests to examine the heart. These tests will help your cardiologist identify the problem affecting your child and create a treatment plan.
Tests that help cardiologists diagnose tetralogy of Fallot are:

Continuous Deployment
Last winter John Allspaw joined Etsy to run tech ops. John has written several important books on web ops and is one of the experts in operating large scale web services. One of the first things John did when he arrived at Etsy is work with the dev and ops teams to put in place a continuous deployment system.
Continuous deployment is the idea that you push out changes to your code base all the time instead of doing large builds and pushing out big chunks of code. Here's an Eric Ries post on continuous deployment if you want to get a longer description of what it is and how it works.
At Etsy, they push out code about 25 times per day. It has worked out very well for Etsy and has led to faster cycles, improved morale, and a more stable and reliable web service. We were talking about all of this during the board meeting yesterday and Chad Dickerson, Etsy's CTO, invited me to push out some code after the board meeting.
I sat at Chad's computer, we pulled up the queue of code that had been reviewed and approved and was ready to push, I selected the code I was going to push out, I hit the "deploy" button, and then we watched as the code was pushed out into the production system. Then we watched all the key metrics to make sure I hadn't broken the service with my push. I pushed some small changes to the checkout system. We watched to see that checkouts continued to get processed. We looked at all the charts and graphs. Everything seemed fine. And we were done.
After we finished the deploy, I asked John (who took this picture) what would have happened if I did break the site. I asked how to roll back the changes. He said "we don't roll back, we fix the code." I asked what was the longest time it took to "fix the code" after a push had broken something. Kellan (who is on the right in the picture) told me that the longest fix for something that had taken a critical service down was about 4 minutes although they had seen longer periods of diminution of service.
I really like this model. Big changes create big problems. Little changes create little problems. I realize that this model doesn't work in desktop software and mobile apps. But cloud based web services can be operated this way and it really jives with whole culture of building and managing web apps.
The next time I am at Etsy, they are going to let me make a small change to the code base and then push that out. As Pete Miron said on Twitter yesterday, "so simple, a VC can do it."

Revision as of 18:16, 19 May 2011
From Wikipedia:Sleep mode:
- Sleep mode can go by many different names, including Stand By, Sleep, and Suspend. When placed in this sleep mode, aside from the RAM which is required to restore the machine's state, the computer attempts to cut power to all unneeded parts of the machine. Because of the large power savings, most laptops automatically enter this mode when the computer is running on batteries and the lid is closed.
Suspend to RAM in Arch Linux using one of the following methods:
Suspend Framework
There are three canonical suspend backends - kernel, uswsusp and tuxonice - which instead of being configured or called directly, can be plugged into the suspend framework provided by pm-utils.
The first approach is to directly inform the in-kernel software suspend code (swsusp) to enter a suspended state; the exact method and state depends on the level of hardware support.
/usr/lib/pm-utils/pm-functions::294 (comments added):
if grep -q mem /sys/power/state; then SUSPEND_MODULE="kernel" # Suspend-to-RAM # ACPI State S3 # Device State D3 # Greatest power savings, slower resume do_suspend() { echo -n "mem" >/sys/power/state; } elif [ -c /dev/pmu ] && pm-pmu --check; then SUSPEND_MODULE="kernel" # Suspend using Macintosh-style PMU # Fallback for older kernels in which the sysfs interface does not support this hardware do_suspend() { pm-pmu --suspend; } elif grep -q standby /sys/power/state; then SUSPEND_MODULE="kernel" # Power-On-Suspend # ACPI State S1 # Device State D1 (supported devices) # Minimal power savings, fast resume do_suspend() { echo -n "standby" >/sys/power/state; } fi
While Suspend-to-RAM may generally work, often-times 'hacks' are needed to reinitialize the video card or turn on the backlight. The uswsusp ('Userspace Software Suspend') package provides s2ram, a wrapper around the kernel's suspend-to-RAM mechanism which perform some graphics adapter manipulations from userspace before suspending and after resuming. This includes:
- passing acpi_sleep=s3_bios to the kernel
- passing acpi_sleep=s3_mode to the kernel
- passing both of the above (acpi_sleep=s3_bios,s3_mode) to the kernel
- POSTing the video card from userspace after resume using vbetool
- saving the VBE state before suspend and restoring it after resume using vbetool
This is accomplished by a hardware whitelist maintained by HAL - s2ram translates the HAL database options into s2ram parameters.
Since HAL is deprecated and KMS drivers can save the state of the grahic card directly without userspace quirks, s2ram development is discontinued and no further whitelist entries are accepted. If a KMS driver is in use, s2ram will directly suspend the machine.
pm-utils is suspend and powerstate settings framework implementing extensible hooks run in alphanumerical order as root from {/usr/lib/pm-utils/,/etc/pm/}{sleep.d/,power.d/}. The suspend backend is specified by the SLEEP_MODULE configuration variable in /etc/pm/config.d and defaults to the kernel backend. The Arch Linux package ships with support for the following backends:
pacman -Ql pm-utils | grep module.d pm-utils /usr/lib/pm-utils/module.d/ pm-utils /usr/lib/pm-utils/module.d/kernel pm-utils /usr/lib/pm-utils/module.d/tuxonice pm-utils /usr/lib/pm-utils/module.d/uswsusp
Furthermore, pm-utils ships with its own video quirks database in /usr/lib/pm-utils/video-quirks/.
However to be able to use the alternative suspend backends - uswsusp or tuxonice - the respective packages need to be installed
- uswsusp - available in AUR under the name uswsusp-git
- tuxonice - available in AUR under the name kernel26-ice
This outlines the internal actions when pm-suspend is run, describing how pm-utils gracefully falls back onto the kernel method if the requirements of other methods are not met.
$ pm-suspend
The first step is set-up preliminary variables and source parent scripts:
export STASHNAME=pm-suspend export METHOD="$(echo ${0##*pm-} |tr - _)" . "/usr/lib/pm-utils/pm-functions"
The variable METHOD is extracted from the executable name, suspend from pm-suspend and hibernate from pm-hibernate.
The location of runtime configuration parameters is defined in /usr/lib/pm-utils/pm-functions as PM_UTILS_RUNDIR="/var/run/pm-utils" and STORAGEDIR="${PM_UTILS_RUNDIR}/${STASHNAME}/storage". Therefore STORAGEDIR="/var/run/pm-utils/pm-suspend/storage"; this is where pm-suspend will cache its configuration. Disabled hooks are stored as plain text files with the hook name prefixed by "disable_hook:". Configuration parameters are appended to the parameters file:
$ ls -lah /var/run/pm-utils/pm-suspend/storage/ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 20 May 19 09:57 disable_hook:99video -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 May 19 02:59 parameters -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 247 May 19 02:59 parameters.rm -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9 May 19 02:59 state:cpu0_governor -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9 May 19 02:59 state:cpu1_governor
Then pm-functions will source the files located in /etc/pm/config.d/ in addition to /usr/lib/pm-utils/defaults. Upon returning, pm-functions will proceed to source the files specified by $SLEEP_METHOD as /usr/lib/pm-utils/module.d/$SLEEP_METHOD[...] if they exist:
for mod in $SLEEP_MODULE; do mod="${PM_UTILS_LIBDIR}/module.d/${mod}" [ -f "$mod" ] || continue . "$mod" done
Otherwise, if $SLEEP_MODULE is empty, do_suspend() will be set to the kernel backend as described above:
if [ -z "$SUSPEND_MODULE" ]; then if grep -q mem /sys/power/state; then SUSPEND_MODULE="kernel" do_suspend() { echo -n "mem" >/sys/power/state; } elif [ -c /dev/pmu ] && pm-pmu --check; then SUSPEND_MODULE="kernel" do_suspend() { pm-pmu --suspend; } elif grep -q standby /sys/power/state; then SUSPEND_MODULE="kernel" do_suspend() { echo -n "standby" >/sys/power/state; } fi fi
Assuming $SLEEP_MODULE is not empty and uswsusp is specified, /usr/lib/pm-utils/module.d/uswsusp is executed. This script checks several requirements (these are the requirements for being able to use uswsusp):
- [ -z $SUSPEND_MODULE ]
- command_exists s2ram
- grep -q mem /sys/power/state || ( [ -c /dev/pmu ] && pm-pmu --check; );
If these requirements are met, do_suspend() is defined as:
do_suspend() { uswsusp_get_quirks s2ram --force $OPTS }
Most importantly, the uswsusp module runs:
add_before_hooks uswsusp_hooks add_module_help uswsusp_help
The first function, add_before_hook disables the pm-utils hooks 99video since this functionality is subsumed by s2ram. The second function, add_module_help, adds uswsusp-module-specific help, which in essence replaces the help function provided by 99video.
Back to pm-suspend:
command_exists "check_$METHOD" && command_exists "do_$METHOD" "check_$METHOD"
This verifies that the check_suspend and do_suspend methods have been defined. The check_suspend method simply verifies that $SUSPEND_MODULE is not empty:
check_suspend() { [ -n "$SUSPEND_MODULE" ]; }
Lastly, pm-suspend must run all hooks that have not been disabled, sync file-system buffers, and run do_suspend:
if run_hooks sleep "$ACTION $METHOD"; then # Sleep only if we know how and if a hook did not inhibit us. log "$(date): performing $METHOD" sync "do_$METHOD" || r=128 log "$(date): Awake."
The method run_hooks is a wrapper for _run_hooks, which the case of pm-suspend is called as run_hooks sleep "suspend suspend". Given that:
PARAMETERS="${STORAGEDIR}/parameters" PM_UTILS_LIBDIR="/usr/lib/pm-utils" PM_UTILS_ETCDIR="/etc/pm"
The method _run_hooks, will for each hook in "${PM_UTILS_LIBDIR}/$1.d" and "${PM_UTILS_ETCDIR}/$1.d", check that sleep has not been inhibited and update the runtime parameters stored in $PARAMETERS before running each hook via run_hook $hook $2. In the case of Suspend-to-RAM, all the hooks in {/usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/,/etc/pm/sleep.d/} will be enumerated, and run_hook will be passed the parameters $hook and "suspend suspend". The method run_hook uses the hook_ok function to verify that the hook has not been disabled before executing the hook with the "suspend suspend" parameters.
Which of What to Use
Framework or Not?
Directly calling the kernel backend method is significantly faster than calling pm-suspend, since running all the hooks provided by the pm-utils framework invariable takes time. Even uswsusp is faster than pm-suspend. However, the recommended approach is to use pm-utils as it can properly:
- set hardware clock
- restore wireless
- etc...
In fact, only the pm-utils approach can be called without special privileges, see pm-utils#Suspend.2FHibernate as regular user
Which Backend/Method
- kernel - hooks provided by pm-utils (including video quirks) with kernel method. Recommended.
- uswsusp - hooks provided by pm-utils except video99 with s2ram assuming responsibility for video quirks. Not necessary unless the kernel method explicitly fails to work.
- tuxonice - ...

On 24th May 2014 Ben and I will take to the stage for the last time as Over the Wall. There's been a wee bit of light-hearted cynicism at our announcement, but I can assure you that it's real. We are in no position to be able to cash in on anything related to Over the Wall let alone a reunion tour in a year or two. We're not going to appear at one more festival in the summer, a pal's birthday party, your cousin's bar mitzvah, or anything else. This is definitely it.
When they ask, I've been telling people that the reason we've split up is that Ben wants to do less music and I want to do more, and as convenient a way to stop the conversation as that is, it's far from the full story. Ben's desire to make music hasn't gone away. He'll no doubt be making stuff in the future just as I will. The real problem is that I am now depending on music as my sole income, and in order to maintain that in this day and age you have to make certain sacrifices. Ben has a proper job now. He's an engineer. He travels down past Hadrian's Wall on a weekly basis for that very purpose. The practicalities of working around that aside, he's not in a position where he wants to sacrifice that in order to play to our very nice, very loyal, but unfortunately fairly small fanbase, often under working conditions (suffered by the vast majority of artists) that can at best be described as indifferent. The daily grind of touring in this country isn't something that interests Ben any more. When faced with this, we were for a while in a halfway house, trying to still make interesting music that gets heard by as many people as possible but trying to find ways of doing it where you didn't have to tour so much, or even meet up as much. We were turning down lots of interesting offers as a result, and I didn't want to keep doing that. I like playing live for its own sake. So ultimately it was my decision, but done in order that we both be happy with what we're doing, and in a way that best stayed true to what we were trying to do when we first created Over the Wall.
I'm concerned that people will think we've kind of given up as some sort of admission of failure, or after having simply not worked hard enough at this music lark. Nothing we've released has bothered the charts, therefore you may be forgiven for thinking that we tried something, it didn't work, and now we want to try something else. But if that was never the driving purpose of your actions in the first place then it can't really be seen to have failed. I think. That's the thing, I've been trying my best lately to honestly assess what we can take from the experience of doing this for 8 years with so little in terms of recognition or financial reward, and it's hard work.
When we started Over the Wall, it was supposed to be a 'collective' - lots of different artists of various kinds helping each other out as friends. The first Over the Wall night took place at Stereo (it was on Kelvingrove Street at the time, in a Finnieston which looked pretty different to the way it does now) primarily as a means to showcase Ben's shambolic but brilliant proggy metal band and my own solo material. We were both still teenagers. Over the course of a few years while we were students, the 'collective' idea gradually receded, culminating in a trilogy of shows with Ben Hillman and Gav Prentice' billed as the headliners. This was essentially Over the Wall as it became - two singer-songwriters playing on each other's songs, some noisy, some delicate, all of them some sort of attempt to make the other impressed, or laugh, or stuck trying to come up with something to go along with it. We used battered old keyboards, guitars, a trumpet and the simplest beat-making program we could find on a laptop, all purely because they were close to hand. We almost had a manifesto for the 'euphoric pop' which we saw as the only through-line for it all - completely honest and completely unpretentious pop music that made you feel good (I didn't see the irony when I would then pretentiously witter on, no doubt boring people to tears about it, when they made the mistake of asking what my band was like). It was completely for the hell of it, and despite our lofty ambitions we had absolutely no idea of how to make money from what we were doing. It was the innocent playtime before anything got serious, and I've always found it really helpful to just think back to the spirit of what we were doing then if anything seems stressful.
The trouble is, we both got that crippling fear as we came to the end of our student days - "what are you going to do with your life?" - and it seemed obvious to reply that we would do this. In a capitalist economy you are valued by the monetised labour that you produce, so our response to the panic that realisation brings was to try to monetise the labour we were already engaged with. I thought that because we were trying something new, and we really didn't know of anyone doing what we were doing, then people would get on board quickly. We played our first gig as a band called Over the Wall in May 2006, in fact our final gig will be pretty close to our 8 year anniversary. It was downstairs in the old Captain's Rest. The few people there were fortunately very drunk and went absolutely mental for us. I remember being a sweaty mess afterwards, looking out at the empty floor covered in smashed pint glasses and thinking that we must have something pretty special.
When we weren't at our day jobs we were constantly writing songs, and none of it was a struggle. Over the next couple of years there was a steady trajectory and things all seemed to be happening in the correct order. We played at T in the Park and, despite it being a childhood dream come true for me, we were dismissive of the hyper-sponsorship of it enough to do this and this. Motive Sounds wanted to bring out an EP - we put it together entirely by ourselves in our flat, including mixing and mastering, and when we released it, it got played on the radio and magazines (actual physically-printed magazines) wrote about it. Gigs on our first tour were generally well attended, and when we filmed a video for Thurso in Brighton people really took to it. I had folk telling me that the song had helped their relationship with their own father or helped them get out of a really dark time, crazy stuff to suddenly be sharing with strangers. If you're young and you get that kind of depth of feeling in reactions from people you don't know, it's hard not to conclude that you've cracked it, you've found your calling, you're on your way. We were working tremendously hard at it, but still for a good while the whole thing kind of felt like a piece of piss.
Making an album was always the idea, and we had a mountain of songs to choose from, but making Treacherous is still probably the most difficult thing I've done, a kind of self-inflicted torture at times. Simply working on it to the extent that we thought necessary while still holding down day jobs was bad enough, but we became obsessive about vanishingly small details. Through the two-year-long period over which we recorded it we were also still going out and gigging, still regularly playing in the same cycle of venues in Glasgow and Edinburgh, and it did start to feel a bit like actual work at times. But that just added to the sense of achievement when the album eventually came out. We were always really lucky with what critics said (if they chose to write about us at all) but some of the stuff that people said about Treacherous was amazing, and it was the fastest selling thing that Motive Sounds had made at the time. We established a good working routine for touring (not possible without the help of some great friends and the greatest estate car of all time, Amelia, may she rest in peace) and we always had a laugh.
That said, the Around The Isles in 80 Days tour of Britain and Ireland in 2011 can most accurately be called the beginning of the end. That attempt to be a 'proper band' and monetise what we did was never going to be easy, but I think we both naively thought it would be. For every great show on that tour there was a really difficult one, for every brilliant story we have there's also the memory of how tired we got. I would go to work in an office for three days, go on the road for three days, and then repeat, for 3 months. And right through this period, there was no big breakthrough, no larger label knocking down the door or sudden influx of sales, just the steady grind of a hard working band which'll be familiar to many. Later in 2011 we had an opportunity to go to Germany, where a radio station had made Treacherous their album of the month, but when I put it to Ben I could tell his heart sank. That's not really the reaction that you want when you think you could go to another country to play, but he was getting to the point where he'd had enough.
All of this work might still seem like it was a right good laugh, and it was, but while it was happening, so was the lion's share of our twenties. You see pals moving away to other cities, or out to the countryside, to different countries, you see them becoming things like teachers and accountants. You can feel pretty worthless when you see people close to you move on like this while you self-indulgently just play songs for people, and not even to enough people to be able to maintain it as your sole income. But, although I often have my doubts, I have to believe that every single thing we did for Over the Wall was worthwhile. Some people really liked it, and I'm really proud of the music we made, which stands up all the better because none of it was conceived as a way to make money or get famous. And no matter what walk of life you are in you can't let that shit get to you. You can't compare your life to others like that, it doesn't work, it's not a race with a winner and medals at the end. That means that counting up achievements for yourself is missing the point too. To the extent that we made euphoric pop music, gave people a good time, and stayed friends, I think we were pretty successful.
So here's the end of the story: Ben went back to uni, did a Masters, and then got his current real job. I maintained the job I was in before for a while, recorded my solo album The Invisible Hand, and made a theatre show called Rantin with three other folk who weren't Ben. It meant that when we got back together, it was a joy, and new stuff happened pretty easily. The new songs that we released in 2013, the Tell Her I Love Her single and the This Is How We Did It EP, are the best things we ever did, but in all of the stuff outside of the actual music, we were pulling in different directions, and rather than maintain a half-hearted and cross-border Over the Wall, we decided to call it a day. Otherwise there would be a real danger that it would just fizzle out, and that is simply not an option to us. Decidedly splitting up by playing our final gigs and making it clear that's what they are is the only real way to do it.
It's going to be really sad saying goodbye to Over the Wall, but I'm just really glad it happened at all, and thankful that anyone whatsoever gave a shit about it. Come and join us at one of our last two gigs if you can and we'll raise a glass to it all. The details are below. Thanks for reading.
Gav Prentice
Saturday 10th May - Limbo at The Voodoo Rooms, Edinburgh, Doors 8pm, tickets:
Saturday 24th May - Oran Mor, Glasgow, Doors 7pm, tickets:
We want to make the final two gigs in May pretty special. It'll be as close to a greatest hits set as a band with no hits (and that isn't really a band) can manage. Here's the dates:
Saturday 10th May - Limbo at The Voodoo Rooms, Edinburgh
Saturday 24th May - Oran Mor, Glasgow
We would love to see you there. 'This Is How We Did It' seems very appropriate now. Thanks again.

Museum Pests
As a Structural Entomologist, I primarily deal with pests found in any typical urban environment, including cockroaches, ants, flies and rodents; however, working in a museum, I also encounter a completely different classification of pests that provide their own unique challenges.
Wood infesting insects, stored product pests and fabric and paper pests can destroy museum objects in a relatively short amount of time. A carpet beetle or clothes moth that might put a few holes in a $40 sweater could completely decimate an artifact like a wool cap from the Civil War. It's important to identify pests correctly and to know the early signs of an infestation before an object is irreversibly damaged.
Museum pests are not a topic that is typically covered at pest management conferences or in industry journals or websites. This is why I was so excited to have the opportunity to attend "Museum Pests 2014: Integrated Pest Management for Museums, Libraries, Archives and Historic Sites" in Colonial Williamsburg, thanks to the Smithsonian Gardens travel grant program earlier this year.
There was an overwhelming number of presentations, workshops and tours to choose from during the two day conference including topics such as pest identification, treatment options, record keeping, Integrated Pest Management policy, and health and safety. Workshops that I attended included tours of the Colonial Williamsburg Historic Area and the Collection and Preservation Facilities.
It was reassuring to meet with museum professionals from all over the world and to learn that all of us experience the same basic challenges regardless of whether we work in large complexes or small, historic homes. The information that I gathered in two short days has been indispensable in my encounters with museum pests.

So....... My trusty Mac Pro 3,1 has been randomly shutting down. Needless to say, as I believe it says in Leviticus somewhere, "that doth sucketh."
My Mac is 11 years old. The UPS battery back up is about 5. Recently, the computer started shutting down randomly while plugged into the battery back up side of the UPS. So, I switched it over the "filtered power" side.... but no battery backup. Problem seem solved for a while. Then it started shutting down randomly again.
Some background. I live in a 60 year old (more or less) apartment with a power supply that involves three 20 amp circuit breakers. That includes two window A/C units..... fridge.... microwave... electric teakettle.... and a Mac... and two monitors (the old Apple LCD displays.... one 20 incher and one 17 incher). And a cable modem, router, and speakers with subwoofer. And two printers.
Years ago, I got this "Monster Power Center" kind of thing that's supposed to be for audio equipment.... but.... that's another long story. I don't use it for that intended purpose anymore (stereo system temporarily on sabbatical). So.... I've got half of the Mac plugged into the UPS and the other half (the monitors) plugged into the Monster Power gizmo.
After the random shut downs, I tried plugging the Mac into the Monster Power Center. Still randomly shutting down (oh.... did I mention that half of the Monster Power Center no longer works due to a bolt of lightning that struck about 10 feet away from my house one day?).
So..... I plugged the Mac itself..... nothing else...into another outlet. Still randomly shutting down. "Crap-o-la" I thought to myself.
So.... I really don't have much money these days, but.... I do have a little room left on my first credit card in 10+ years, and went to a local big box retailer, and what I could afford was a 650 VA / 360 Watt thing. Before purchase, I looked up the specs at Every Mac on the 3,1.... but surprisingly, the watt usage on the power supply is not listed. My gut tells me that 360 watts is not enough. But here's the thing.
So..... I ran an extension cord across the living room floor (not really my idea of a great look when guests come..... LOL), and I plugged the Mac Pro and the 20 inch LCD display into the new battery back up. The idea was that the plug across the room is on a different circuit breaker than what I've got the rest of the Mac plugged into.
Knock on wood. 48 hours later, I've been having no problems (Phew!).
So...... the old battery backup (which I got from Costco) is apparently just too funky for words. Can they be repaired? Or recycled? Is it of any use? Knowing Costco's legendary return policy, would anyone here have the temerity to take it back after 5 years and say, "here, it doesn't work....." LOL (that was more rhetorical than anything).
I was looking up specs on watt usage of Mac Pro towers later that day (I decided to wait to reboot until the new battery backup had charged up sufficiently), and I saw figures from 600 to 900 to even 1000 watts.
So..... is this new battery backup... the 360 watt one...... likely to not be any good in case of a real bona fide power failure (which again, knock on wood, are fairly rare where I live)? Should I take this one back and save my pennies for a bigger model? And again.... what to do with the old one.... other than use it as door stop?

To help our Full Day Kindergarten students visually recognize the numbers 1 to 1o, as well as count to 10, I drew a game on poster paper. In the top left corner, I put a picture of a frog. In the bottom right corner, I put a picture of a lilypad. I then drew lines of blocks that led the frog to the lily pad for the "spaces". Iq options Iq-option No Brasil
To use this game board, I created cards with the numbers 1 to 10 on them. For the game pieces, you can use anything, but I used our sorting bears. I had 4 children sit around the table. Each of them chose what colour of bear was theirs. I then shuffled the cards and the children took turns picking the top one off the pile. They needed to recognize the number to know how many spaces they could move their bear. We didn't have a "winner". The game was finished once each player got their game piece to the lilypad.
For children who are having difficulty recognizing their numbers, I put dots for the corresponding number on the cards. If the child could not visually recognize the number, he/she could count the dots to know what the number was. I also prepared cards with higher numbers so that when I play with children who already know the numbers 1 to 10, I could have some larger numbers for them to recognize and count to.

I love the idea. It would be great to see a picture of the game.

$1000 reward to be paid by Adbusters for the public apprehension and arrest of any of these fugitives from justice charged with financial crimes against humanity:
Lloyd Blankfein
The man who willfully steered America's most influential investment bank, Goldman Sachs, into the Financial Crisis of 2008, Blankfein oversaw the intentional mass-selling of garbage assets to Goldman clients, bankrupting millions of Americans along the way. He is still CEO.
Robert Rubin
The Clinton era architect of deregulation and derivatives, Rubin was the primary force behind the repeal of the Depression era Glass-Steagall Act in 1999, which separated investment and retail banks. Repealing this Act flipped a switch that triggered the 2008 Financial Meltdown.
Lawrence Summers
Removed from his presidential position at Harvard on allegations of racism and sexism, this charmer has been the steadiest player in deregulation since the 1990s. After cashing in on the Crash, Obama named him the 8th Director of the National Economic Council, where he advocated corporate tax-cuts as the solution to America's financial problems and secured fat bailout cash for the banks and investment funds that employ him.
Notify Adbusters Headquarters and send documentary evidence of the arrest to firstname.lastname@example.com for payment of the reward in full.
