Denial of Territory to Terrorist Groups in US Counterterrorism Strategy
Over the last four years, nearly all the attention of commentators—supportive and critical alike—regarding US counterterrorism operations abroad has been focused on drone strikes. While drone warfare issues are important, it is a mistake for the public debate over US counterterrorism operations abroad to be so narrowly confined to targeted killing without considering the broader objective of denying terrorists territory.
Increasingly, the US government's counterterrorism strategy has embraced the view that although targeted killing of identified terrorist leaders is highly successful and essential, long-term strategy must also ensure that terrorist groups neither gain control of territory nor maintain territorial safe havens in which to regroup, train, rebuild, and finally launch attacks abroad. Counterterrorism thus has a territorial element separate from targeted killing.
Territorial denial takes two distinct forms. One form targets terrorists who establish safe haven in some ungoverned or lightly governed part of a weak state, or who are allowed such by a sympathetic state. The terrorist group is able to inhabit territory as a matter of "physical" geography—it gets a place to hide—but it does not politically govern the territory or its population. The other form of territorial denial focuses on terrorists attempting to establish governing control of the areas they inhabit.
The United States might address a territorial terrorist threat by acting directly, through its own forces, to eliminate the safe haven by striking not just at the group's leadership but at its training camps, bases, supply routes, etc. Alternatively and more likely, the United States might address the threat through military and intelligence support to the legitimate government of the territory. While drone strikes and targeted killing of individuals figure importantly in denying terrorists safe haven, so too must support for the local government because denial of physical territory requires a government both willing and logistically able to assert sovereignty over the zone. In current US strategy, whether in Yemen or in the Horn of Africa, this involves providing military and intelligence advisers, logistical support, and intelligence resources designed to bolster the legitimate government in its conflict with the terrorist insurgents. Targeted killing of individuals and denial of physical geography in which to take haven are complementary elements of US strategy.
In its territorial denial role, however, the United States might act as a partner in something amounting to a conventional counterinsurgency war—carried out by local government partners on the ground with American air, intelligence, and logistical support. The United States might also go further and serve, in effect, as the air arm of the local government in what might rise to the level of a civil war against a terrorist group that seeks to defend its safe havens against the territory's legitimate government, but which also has transnational terrorist aims against the United States.
This is what the US government appears to be doing in Yemen, but without being willing openly to own up to what amounts to becoming co-belligerent with the Yemeni government in a conventional civil war against a common enemy of both the US and Yemeni governments, al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula. Drones are used in Yemen not only, or even mostly, for the targeting of individual high value leadership. More often drones are used in so-called "signature strikes," which, instead of targeting identified individuals, target groups of conventional fighters that present characteristics indicating they are members of "hostile forces."
If treated within the framework of targeted killing, air attacks on groups on the basis of behavioral "membership" signatures appear to be a relaxation of the standards of individualized "targeted killing." In the view of the critics, the US government couldn't figure out who was a target and who wasn't, so it just blew them all up as a group. However, drone strikes against groups of fighters are more accurately understood as a type of conventional air targeting in a conventional civil war, in which it is lawful to target those who appear to be operating as "hostile forces."
The Obama administration has not so far been willing to admit that this is what is really going on, preferring instead to treat signature strikes as part of targeted killing programs, presumably because of the perceived political risks of attempting to explain the distinction. Whatever political difficulties making the distinction poses for the administration, however, over the longer term the deliberate conflation of two distinct situations of targeting risks political and legal delegitimation of the crucial paradigm of individualized targeted killing through drones. Signature strikes, whether direct US military operations or conducted by a local government with US support, are not a form of targeted killing; they are part of territorial denial.
The form of territorial denial concerned with political control of territory—beyond the mere physical presence of terrorists—aims to deny terrorists "governance" or "political" geography. Afghanistan under the Taliban illustrated the risks of allowing a radical terrorist group to incorporate itself into, or operate parallel to, the political structures of an entire sovereign state. Whatever else happens in Afghanistan, the US national security establishment understands that it cannot allow Afghanistan again to become a political territory in the hands of a terrorist group that has both governing control (of the territory's population, institutions, resources, and legitimacy, however narrow) and ambitions to commit acts of terrorism abroad.
But Afghanistan is not the only place where this is a concern. Mali, for example, presents some of the same issues of political control of territory. The Islamist forces battling the government seek not merely physical space to locate themselves, but governance over the territory. Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM) has ambitions internally in Mali as well as externally. It is therefore unsurprising that the United States is backing efforts by France and other countries to deny the group both its aims. And in this case, concerns of the United States and other countries about terrorism overlap with concerns about human rights in the brutal, indeed horrific, governance of zones AQIM already controls, as well as with traditional international concerns for reestablishing the recognized sovereign government of Mali.
The US government certainly does not want to engage in more ground wars. But though its strategy recognizes the value of targeting particular individuals in order to weaken, disrupt, and destroy terrorist groups, it also acknowledges that strategically it is just as crucial to deny territory to terrorist groups. US strategy seeks a way to do this (without undertaking more ground counterinsurgency wars) that addresses the two distinct modes of territorial denial—physical safe havens and governance control of a whole political geography. The United States is moving strategically, it appears, toward providing allied governments with military and intelligence advice and support designed to deny terrorists both physical territory and political territory.
In some cases, as in Yemen, it is willing to act as the government's air arm in a civil war. In other cases, US support might go to non-state armed groups, whether as alternatives or supplements to the national government. Those groups might start out as human intelligence networks. But as situations evolve (in Afghanistan, for example) they might become something much closer to "proxy forces," supplied and supported by the US government as a mechanism of denial of political territory to terrorist groups. There is much to recommend this strategy as a whole; it goes without saying, of course, that it also raises a host of legal, moral, and political legitimacy questions distinct from those raised by drone warfare alone.

Dura Composites first on David Cameron's schedule at The Big 5 Dubai
The Big 5 exhibition in Dubai has certainly started with a bang for Dura Composites. The team were honoured to host David Cameron on his whirlwind tour of the UK pavilion earlier today. The UK Prime Minister, who is visiting the UAE to promote British business within the country, stopped at the stand to meet the team and learn about Dura Composites' success in the Middle East.
Dura Composites is exhibiting alongside its Dubai distributor, Advanced Fibreglass Industries, showcasing its extensive range of quality composite flooring and façades. The team has worked tirelessly over the past few weeks, to ensure the stand is looking great, and have high expectations for the show which is the world's largest building and construction show.
The exhibition certainly hasn't disappointed so far. Stuart Burns, Director at Dura Composites, said "The Prime Minister was extremely interested in Dura Composites; He was already well-briefed about our Clacton roots and previous projects that we have worked on in the Middle East, such as The Palm. The visit has already had an effect, there's a buzz around the stand this morning- we hope it continues for the rest of the show."
Reports state that British exports to the UAE have grown considerably in the past few years. The UAE is one of the fastest growing economies in the world and holds enormous potential for UK businesses. David Cameron is visiting the country in the hope of boosting and promoting the UK's trading activities in the country.
The Prime Minister spent only 15 minutes at the exhibition, having carefully pre-selected which stands he was going to stop at. Dura Composites may have been chosen because of its sustainability credentials, having made the news earlier this year when it was confirmed as the first timber composite manufacturer to be awarded the 100% FSC certificate.
Another pull may have been the Company's growing success in the region. Despite the economic downturn, Dura Composites sales in the Middle East have soared and it is actively recruiting new distributors at the show. The growth is undoubtedly due to the product's resistance to harsh climates; It can adapt the composition of its products to suit differing heat and UV levels, from the harsh climate in Dubai.

Now, confessions. This is only the second time in my whole life. First? Second. Hm, I'm not sure. I think it's the very first time I've ever made pie crust from scratch. Success!!!
Pie Crust
Yields 3 pie crusts
3/4 c vegetable shortening
3/4 c butter, cold
3 c AP flour
1 egg
5 T cold water
1 T white vinegar
1 t salt
Use two knives or a pastry cutter to work the flour into the shortening and butter. It'll look coarse and mealy and a little bit like pellets. At that point, form into one mega ball of dough.
Beat the egg in a separate bowl before adding it to the flour mixture. Add the water, a tablespoon at a time, then the white vinegar, then the salt. Stir until incorporated.
Divide into three separate balls. Place into individual zip-top bags. Slightly flatten each ball, seal the bags, then place in the freezer. If you plan on using any of these immediately, get the necessary crust(s) out after 20 minutes.

'Curate's Egg' harvest at Hendred Estate
Harvest started well with winter barley yielding around 9.8 t/ha of full malting quality Cassata. Straw yields were also high (winter barley is the only crop we bale – everything else is chopped and returned to the soil). The big straw swathes caused us some problems with our CTF system, as we have to continually run on top of them with tractors and grain trailers, although we soon solved this cheaply by belly sheeting everything. We also struggled to get the straw dry due to green stems and rain on the swathes. This caused further head scratching to try to spread and re- gather the straw without tractors leaving the wheelways, but managed to do it with hay tedder and borrowed twin rotor grass rake. Our straw handling system can now deal with any eventuality without us ever deviating from our CTF lanes and causing random damaging compaction where we don't want it.
Bale carting
OSR harvest was early and easy but yields did not quite live up to expectations (approx. 3.6 t/ha compared with 5yr average of 3.9t/ha). Various cultivation and late N trials failed to prove much but will be looked at again in the depths of winter to see if anything can be teased out. (I would be keen to do more on farm trials but am always disappointed because combine yield meters are invariably too inaccurate to show subtle differences; if anyone has a cheap second-hand plot combine for sale…!)
The wheat harvest was the star of the show, with our overall average looking to be very approximately 11.2 t/ha (5yr. av is 9.49 t/ha). Hagbergs and specific weights were fantastic but the protein levels were inevitably diluted by the high yields so that we will not get full milling price for our Cordiale. Luckily I had started selling early, based on budgeted cost of production (the information was provided at the Monitor Farm open meeting in June) and I had got a reasonable tonnage of wheat sold before the price went into a nosedive.
The final crop to harvest was our spring beans, which were a massive disappointment at approximately 1.9 t/ha (5yr av is 3.55t/ha ). The reason for this shocking yield is hard to fathom when all our neighbours' crops around us seemed to do really well. I think it was a combination of factors, including direct drilling and min tilling into wet seedbeds, late green aphid infestations, and downy mildew, etc. It just proves the point about yield variability in spring beans and is something I want to look at in our Monitor Farm programme of meetings, especially now that pulses are so topical because of CAP reform.
We have grown a large area of beans for some years as part of a sustainable, wide rotation but, just as many people are starting to grow them, I am thinking that it is difficult to justify a big area of crop which often detracts from our overall farm performance.
With the early harvest we got good early seedbeds for OSR which were fertilised and sprayed off before drilling the OSR into good moisture. Unfortunately we have had almost total crop failure in the fieldwork due to slugs, whereas the headlands (which were effectively twice rolled) have established and grown well. At the time of writing we have just finished re-drilling the failed areas but conditions are now so dry it is touch and go whether it will germinate and grow…such are the joys of farming!
With the various problems people have had with OSR establishment this year we plan to talk a bit on this subject at our next meeting on 21 October.
Creating a second stale seedbed.
Cereal stale seedbeds were all made close behind the combine and a good first flush of weeds sprayed off. We have now nearly finished 'tickling' a second stale seedbed with our cheap 10m Wiberg/Roll combination. Unfortunately the current lack of moisture may inhibit a further flush but at least it is a quick, shallow pass which is not letting too much moisture out of the seedbed.
We have our winter programme of meetings now arranged and will be covering topics such as precision farming, pulse agronomy, nutrition, oilseed rape establishment and crop marketing as well as getting a local benchmarking group going.

The University Judiciary Committee is the student-run, central governing and operating body of the University Judicial System of the University of Virginia, and is authorized to investigate and adjudicate alleged violations of the University's Standards of Conduct.
The UJC consists of 25 representatives elected from the 12 undergraduate and graduate schools of the University for one-year terms. Each school elects two representatives, except for the College of Arts & Sciences, which elects three. Representatives serve as judges during UJC trials and are responsible for committee policy and procedure.
All students are expected to abide by the 12 Standards of Conduct, which cover all student behavior other than lying, cheating, and stealing.
Standards of Conduct
Any individual or group may file complaints with the UJC according to the committee's statute of limitations. All complaints are heard by a panel of five judges elected from the student body. Should the accused student be found guilty, the panel may choose to administer a variety of sanctions, ranging from an admonition to expulsion.
Generally, prohibited conduct for which a student is subject to discipline is defined as:
- Physical assault of any person on University- owned or -leased property, at any University-sanctioned function, at the permanent or temporary local residence of a University student, faculty member, employee, visitor, or in the City of Charlottesville or Albemarle County, or Prohibited Conduct, as defined in the University of Virginia Policy on Sexual and Gender-Based Harassment and Other Forms of Interpersonal Violence.
- Conduct that intentionally or recklessly threatens the health or safety of any person on University-owned or -leased property, at a University-sanctioned function, at the permanent or temporary local residence of a University student, faculty member, employee, or visitor, or in the city of Charlottesville or Albemarle County.
- Unauthorized entry into or occupation of University facilities that are locked, closed to student activities, or otherwise restricted as to use.
- Intentional disruption or obstruction of teaching, research, administration, disciplinary procedures, other University activities, or activities authorized to take place on University property.
- Unlawfully blocking or impeding normal pedestrian or vehicular traffic on or adjacent to University property.
- Violation of University policies or regulations referenced in The Record, including policies concerning residence halls and the use of University facilities.
- Alteration, fabrication, or misuse of, or obtaining unauthorized access to, University identification cards, other documents, or computer files or systems.
- Disorderly conduct on Universityowned or -leased property or at a University- sanctioned function. Disorderly conduct is defined to include, but is not limited to, acts that breach the peace, are lewd, indecent, or obscene, and that are not constitutionally protected speech.
- Substantial damage to Universityowned or -leased property or to any property in the city of Charlottesville or Albemarle County or to property of a University student, employee, faculty member, or visitor, occurring on University-owned or -leased property or at the permanent or temporary local residence of any student, faculty member, employee, or visitor.
- Any violation of federal, state, or local law, if such directly affects the University's pursuit of its proper educational purposes and only to the extent such violations are not covered by other Standards of Conduct and only where a specific provision of a statute or ordinance is charged in the complaint.
- Intentional, reckless, or negligent conduct that obstructs the operations of the Honor or Judiciary Committee, or conduct that violates their rules of confidentiality.
- Failure to comply with directions of University officials acting under provisions 1-11 set above. This shall include failure to give identity in situations concerning alleged violations of sections 1-11.
Should a trial panel determine that an accused student is guilty of the offense(s) alleged, the Judiciary Committee may impose any sanction(s), ranging from an admonition up to expulsion from the University.
Any violation of the University Standards of Conduct motivated by the age, color, disability, gender identity, marital status, national or ethnic origin, political affiliation, race, religion, sex (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, veteran status, or family medical or genetic information of the victim will be deemed an aggravating circumstance, and will result in a more serious sanction up to, and including, expulsion from the University.
Except for cases appealed directly to the Judicial Review Board, University Judiciary Committee decisions are automatically subject to review by the vice president and chief student affairs officer. The vice president may affirm the Judiciary Committee's decision or, if s/he believes the decision is not in the best interest of the University, s/he may: (a) remand the decision to the Judiciary Committee for review, reconsideration, or retrial with an explanation of why the vice president believes the case warrants further action by the committee; or (b) refer the decision directly to the Judicial Review Board, or its successor body.
Interim Suspension
An official of the University may temporarily suspend a student reasonably believed to pose a threat to himself or herself, to the health or safety of other members of the University, to University property, or to the educational process, pending a hearing on an underlying offense charged under the Standards of Conduct.
Interim suspension is also authorized where a student has engaged in violation(s) of the Standards of Conduct and/or federal, state, local, or international law, such that the official could reasonably conclude that the student is not fit to be a part of the community of responsibility and trust that is the University.
Any student so suspended who thereafter enters upon those areas of the Grounds denied the student by the terms of the suspension, other than with the permission of or at the request of University officials or of a duly authorized hearing body for purposes of a hearing, is subject to further discipline by the University as well as possible arrest and criminal prosecution.
Cases Involving Psychiatric Issues
The University has established two separate procedures to address allegations of misconduct for certain student cases involving contributory health impairments:
- Procedures for Hearings on Contributory Health Impairments in Honor Cases: Available to address appropriate cases before the University Honor Committee and relevant issues arising in the context of Interim Suspension; and
- Procedures for Student Disciplinary Cases Involving Contributory Health Impairments: The University Dean of Students may invoke this Procedure whether or not judicial charges are filed or pending when there is good cause to believe that, based upon a student's conduct or behavior, a student's presence at the University poses a significant risk. In any such instance, the University Dean of Students may request that the Office of the Vice President and Chief Student Affairs Officer require that the student undergo a mental health assessment as one of the conditions for the student's return or continued enrollment at the University.
Contact the Office of the Dean of Students (434.924.7133 or email@example.com) for full information on these procedures.

During the Olympics this past summer in London, the construction of the world's largest McDonald's—built with recycled timber to be dismantled after the competition ended—gained attention from plenty of design blogs. As it turns out, that temporary pop-up was just one of many fast-food outposts that are breaking out of their cookie-cutter design holding patterns. Curbed breaks down some of the more interesting concepts around the world, including a Starbucks built into shipping containers and a McDonald's inside a 19th-century Georgian mansion.
Big Food is trying to desperately to reinvent itself in the face of the local-food movement, as well as other trends that have caused a backlash against mass-produced, homogenous products. Some may argue that chains are simply dressing up the same-old product in new clothes with these new design-forward stores. That may be the case, but there's something to be said for not seeing the exact same Starbucks facade everywhere you go in the world.
Check out the Curbed story for more examples.

Amadeus takes security very seriously and works hard to protect customer data. In this section you will find good security practices, as well as alerts and tips that will be helpful when using Amadeus solutions and services online.
On January 27 2015, Amadeus was made aware of the new vulnerability named "Ghost" which has been assigned the unique CVE-2015-0235.
The Ghost vulnerability is a weakness in the Linux glibc library that allows a attackers to remotely take control of the victim's system.
Amadeus is carrying out investigations in order to mitigate any perceived risk. As this vulnerability is on system level and only affects the party running the Operating System, it is advised that customers carry out their own investigation within their own environment.
We can confirm that connections to Amadeus eTravel Management are susceptible to the new SSL 3 - also known as "Poodle" - attack. Amadeus is currently investigating possible server-side mitigations and working to prioritize the decommissioning of SSL 3 on the servers.
Note that the Poodle attack requires a Man-in-the-Middle attacker. In order to avoid such a situation, we recommend all users to avoid using Amadeus eTravel Management on public and unsecured Wi-Fi connections.
Amadeus has been actively working on diagnosing its systems with respect to the Bash vulnerability (CVE-2014-6271,CVE-2014-7169) since it was discovered.
Remedial actions are being taken to protect our systems and patches are being applied - with priority given to the most urgent matters - as soon as they are available from our vendors.
Our Security Operation Center is constantly monitoring our systems for any unusual activity and is able to identify and mitigate against potential attacks.
In relation to the recent Internet Explorer security vulnerability, we advise all users that use Internet Explorer to be extra careful while browsing as Microsoft works on a patch to resolve this issue.
Customers using Internet Explorer for Amadeus products should not be affected, though we urge caution when navigating away from trusted sites and using Internet Explorer.
As good security practice, we advise to use an up-to-date anti-virus solution along with keeping your software updated at all times.

Coin of the Month
July 2018: Bizye
The Coin of this Month is presented by Domenic Schäfer
During the reign of Philip the Arab (244-249 AD) Bizye issued some medallions showing an overall view of the city on their reverses. Bizye is a Thracian inland city, located south of the Strandza Mountains, which minted coins in Imperial times. The minting of coins in Bizye reached its peak during the reign of Philip the Arab and his son Philip the Younger. Its coinage has been studied by Jordanka Jurukova who edited a catalogue of dies. One of those medallions has been chosen as our type of the month. On the obverse we can see a laureate and draped bust of the emperor Philip the Arab to left, accompanied by the legend ΑVΤ Μ ΙΟVΛ ΦΙΛΙΠΠΟϹ ΑVΓ. The reverse presents an overall view of the city of Bizye, shown from an aerial perspective. We can identify city walls, ten towers and a city gate, which is flanked by two towers. Above the city gate one can discern a gallery consisting of seven arches and a quadriga to right, which is flanked by two uncertain figures, as ornamentation of the pediment. Inside the walls of Bizye two basilicae are depicted on the left hand side and three victory columns on the right hand side. Additionally, we can see three further undefined buildings in the right corner of the composition. The legend ΒΙΖVΗΝΩΝ in the exergue mentions the minting authority. The iconography refers to some other coin types showing the city gate of Bizye flanked by two towers and surmounted by a quadriga with a figure inside. However, an overall view of a city seen from an aerial perspective is a unique feature in ancient numismatics and has to be considered as a particularity of the coinage of Bizye. There is another coin type with the identical iconography on its reverse, but with a laureate and draped bust to right on its obverse.

Final Summer Open Nursery and Garden Weekend
We hope you'll be able to visit during our final open weekend for summer, Saturday July 15 (8-5) and Sunday July 16 (1-5). The gardens are looking quite fabulous, especially our new crevice garden. The greenhouses are also quite full of an assortment of perennial treasures!
Drimiopsis 'Slow Fade'
Also flowering now in our rock garden is Drimiopsis maculata 'Slow Fade'…having come through our cold winter with no problem. Hardiness is Zone 7b-10b, but it makes a great container specimen in colder zones. I think this is one of the cuter plants we grow in the rock garden, and so very easy!
Scenes from Juniper Level Botanic Garden
Genista in full flower today
The amazing Balkan native Genista saxitalis is in full flower today. This amazing groundcover has been brightening our rock garden for a couple of weeks. Genista is easy to grow with plenty of sun…hardiness is Zone 4a-8b.
Hardy Cactus in bloom at Juniper Level Botanic Garden
Sempervivum 'Oh My'
While gardeners in colder zones take growing hens and chicks for granted, those of us in hot, humid climates are thrilled when we find a variety that lives for us. Here is a photo from the garden today of one of the best in our climate….Sempervivum 'Oh My'.

One of the big questions that fans of 'Deadpool' have had with The Walt Disney Company buying out 20th Century Fox is what would happen to their beloved Wade Wilson. The character was made to be played by Ryan Reynolds and has not only worked but has been praised for the R-rated material that it delivers. Fans have not only embraced it but have wanted more. However, what does that mean with the family-friendly House of Mouse now owning the rights and making it clear that they'd like to "reunite the X-Men, Fantastic Four and Deadpool with the Marvel family under one roof and create richer, more complex worlds of inter-related characters and stories that audiences have shown they love"?
That sounds like a family-friendly Merc with the Mouth is on his way which would pretty much make him even worse than that horrid version which was included in 'X-Men Origins: Wolverine' right? Apparently, that's wrong!
Trust me, I'm as happily surprised as you are.
Disney's CEO Bob Iger has weighed in on that very matter in a call with the media after the merger announcement was made:
"It [Deadpool] clearly has been and will be Marvel branded. But we think there might be an opportunity for a Marvel-R brand for something like Deadpool. As long as we let the audiences know what's coming, we think we can manage that fine."
It isn't clear if this will be an R-Rated section of the Marvel Cinematic Universe or a separate self-contained world that would allow for some of the darker characters to continue on the big screen but either way I'm thrilled!
It sounds like at the very least 'Deadpool' will be safe for now and likely that means 'X-Force' and, if it performs well at the box office, 'New Mutants' will be as well. If done right, this could pave the way for other characters to get their own darker stories told on the big screen such as Moon Knight, Sentry, Daken, or similar characters.
These Fox films, as well as the reception of the Netflix shows, have proven that there is a market for the more mature content.
Are you happy to hear that 'Deadpool' is safe for the time being when it comes to being R-Rated? Do you think the series could even continue as-is if they went down to PG-13? Share your thoughts below True Believers!

Difference between revisions of "System backup"
(rm merge tmpl)
m (moved Full system backup with rsync to Rsync/Full system backup: organization)
(No difference)
Revision as of 03:20, 12 December 2009
This rsync script allows creating a full backup copy across file-systems. It is setup so that the copy includes intact booting capabilities, optionally excluding selected files.
The approach has benefits over omitting system files by just copying personal data; if the system becomes corrupted in the main partition, overcoming the problem means booting into the backup as opposed to identifying and reinstalling affected programs followed by copying back personal data.
Instructions were converted from this forum post.
File-systems in the backup source and destination device need to be the same type. It could work with a mix of ext3 and ext4, but this hasn't been tested. For booting capabilities, the partitioning on the backup source does not matter, whereas the device the backup will be copied to (destination device) needs to have a single partition.
Two files are needed; the backup script and a file stating which files to include/exclude from the backup source.
Backup script
The script is very simple; it rsyncs in archive mode, ensuring that symbolic links, devices, attributes, permissions and ownerships, among other file attributes are preserved, while excluding files that match the patterns from the include/exclude list.
Save it as Template:Filename and make it executable: Template:File
- Backup source; Template:Codeline
- In this case it's performing a backup on the whole root.
- Backup destination; Template:Codeline1
- Passed as an argument to the script; e.g. Template:Filename
- Include/exclude list; Template:Codeline
- This example uses Template:Filename.
Include/exclude list
As deciding which files should populate this list can be difficult, here's a typical backup example that excludes common files that don't need to be backed up, such as the vast majority of Template:Filename. Note that specifying every desired file or directory in Template:Codeline is not needed; this section only acts as a filter for statements in Template:Codeline. This file is in the traditional include/exclude rsync format.
Save the following as Template:Filename: Template:File
- Exclude
- Content in system directories; Template:Filename, Template:Filename, Template:Filename and Template:Filename are excluded because they are created by the system at runtime. Note that the directories themselves need to be preserved since they are not regenerated at boot.
- Include
- Even though Template:Filename is excluded, 4 files that are not dynamically created by udev need to be preserved. These are Template:Filename, Template:Filename, Template:Filename and Template:Filename.
Backing up
Substitute Template:Filename along with Template:Filename as apropiate, and mount the destination device:
# mount /dev/sdb1 /media/mountpoint
Run the backup script:
# ./rbackup.sh /media/mountpoint/
rsync will then backup to that destination.
Boot setup
After the sync is finished, a boot loader needs to be installed on the backup destination, and configuration in the destination's Template:Filename needs to be amended to reflect the new location.
These instructions assume GRUB is the bootloader of choice.
Install bootloader
Open the GRUB console:
# grub
Direct the install towards the destination device:
root (hd1,0) setup (hd1)
The Template:Codeline command should point to where the GRUB files are located--in this case, "Template:Codeline" means the second storage device (Template:Filename) and "Template:Codeline" is the first partition (Template:Filename).
Whereas the Template:Codeline command should point to where the actual boot loader is to be installed. In this example it is installed to the MBR of the second storage device.
Configure bootloader
The problem here is that even though the boot loader installs correctly, its menu entries are for the main system's partitions, not the backup system's.
It's possible to fix this by creating a custom Template:Filename for the backup destination. In order to do this, modify Template:Filename so that it copies a custom Template:Filename: Template:File

Altar Servers
Students in grade 5 and above assist the priest at weekend Mass and are usually scheduled twice a month. Recruitment for new servers will generally occur at the beginning of the school year with announcements made at Masses and in the bulletin. Altar servers participate in a multi-week, hour-long training or until they feel comfortable with their roles. Coordinators:
Youth Band
Students in grades 6th through 12th sing and play instruments at the 5:00 pm Youth Mass each Sunday. Practice is on Sunday 3:15-4:45 pm. Contact Marvin Arias.
Youth Lectors
Students in grades 6th through 12th are invited to become Lectors for the Sunday Youth Mass at 5:00 pm. Training is offered in small group settings. Assignments are made on a rotating basis on individual availability.
Youth Ushers
Students in grades 6th through 12th are invited to become Ushers for the Sunday Youth Mass at 5:00 pm. The purpose of the Usher Ministry is to make parishioners feel welcome and to provide the logistical services that allow the Masses to run smoothly. Ushers help seat parishioners; carry the gifts at offertory procession; pass baskets at collection time; and ensure orderly flow at communion time. Training is offered in small group settings. Assignments are made on a rotating basis on individual availability.
Children's Choir
Children in grades 2-7 sing at scheduled Masses. Rehearsals are held at 5:15-6 pm on Tuesdays from October through December and January through April. Contact Deirdre Sweet, 240-994-3348.
Service Camps
Adults and teens serve the poor and marginalized for one week in the summer by repairing their homes. Year-long preparation and fundraising activities precede this experience. We need both adults who would like to volunteer to lead our teens in a project that can be instrumental in enhancing their Catholic faith, and teens interested in participating in an extremely worthwhile call to Christian service.
Youth Leadership
High School students who have been baptized and have had a year of participation in Youth Group may apply to be a Youth Core Team Leader. The Youth Core Team is a peer ministry designed for all types of adolescents who desire to serve the church and their peer community in various leadership roles such as facilitating small groups, leading Youth Group activities, participating on ministry teams that plan social events (like movie nights, Lock-Ins, ski trips, and dances), and spiritual events (such as mission trips, service projects, and plan retreats). Core Team Leaders attend a training session at the beginning of the school year and meet weekly throughout the year for ongoing training and formation and to plan and evaluate the Youth Group program activities. High School students that are interested in developing leadership skills should contact Fr John about joining the CORE Team.

Illustrated in the American Architect and Building News in 1902, Tuckerman Hall (formerly The Worcester Woman's Club) is listed in the National Register of Historic Places and is located in a National Historic District in Worcester, MA. In 2000, Tuckerman Hall was designated an official project of Save America's Treasures, a partnership between the White House Millennium Council and the National Trust for Historic Preservation.
In 1999, a $2.5 million restoration of Tuckerman Hall took place that included air conditioning to better accommodate summer activities, complete renovation of restrooms and kitchen areas, handicapped access including an elevator and lifts to facilitate accessibility to 10 different floor levels within the structure, a complete overhall and upgrade of all building systems, and painstaking restoration of interior spaces.
In 2004-2005, a $600,000 second phase of restoration included exterior brick and limestone cleaning; window replacement of the building's approximately 125 windows; the installation of a service ramp on the building's south side; and other improvements to the building's Salisbury and Tuckerman Street facades.
Tuckerman Hall's original architect was Josephine Wright Chapman (1867-1943) who began her career as an apprentice in the office of Clarence Blackall, one of Boston's premier architects. Blackall was the first recipient of the Rotch Travelling Fellowship, and his architectural firm designed a number of important structures in downtown Boston including the first building of all-steel construction, 14 theatres including the Colonial, Wilbur, and Metropolitan (now known as The Wang Theatre at the Citi Performing Arts Center), as well as Boston's stately Copley Plaza Hotel. By the late 1890's, Ms. Chapman had established her own firm. Her designs include important structures from Cambridge, MA to Washington, D.C. including Craigie Arms (now known as Chapman Arms, in tribute to her), a dormitory in Cambridge for Harvard College students built in 1897 and on the National Register, as well as Hillandale, a 34-room Italianate villa estate built in 1923 on approximately 70 acres in Washington, D.C. for Standard Oil heiress Anne Archbold.
