When I do apt-get update, i see many lines which start with "Ign". Is there something wrong? Or more specifically, is the conversion sidux -> aptosid not complete?

These ignored files are just pacakage lists that don't have to be updated, because they are already up-to-date.

(as it is an APT related question let me add a few details)
Ign is what it is: Ignored - APT will complain (loudly) if something is missing what needs to be there - it doesn't complain and just prints this line if it can live without the file or has an alternative to download (e.g. Packages.bz2 doesn't exist, but Packages.gz does)
In your case the Ign lines refer to Translation files -- and if you see them this tells you that they doesn't exist. If you want to change that get in touch with your l10n team and translate (all) long descriptions from english into $yourLanguage.
In your specific case that would be en and en_US -- doesn't make sense, huhu? It does, en is reserved for future use (for the experts: the long descriptions will be moved from the Packages to these Translation-en files in the future) and en_US could in theory include all the long descriptions which differ in en_US compared to "universal" en. If your locale would say en_UK you would get this one (not, as they don't exist). This way you could even serve Translations for en_DE (english speakers living in germany - under the assumption that they developed a "slang" as much as the US vs. UK boys and girls did: colour vs. color for example… - en_DE would be kolor or similar
@sx9: No, these lines start with Hit: (or e.g. OK in de)

Thanks all for the prompt answer. The explanation is very much appreciated, DonKult. I hadn't realized those were translation files, i thought they were the repo description (like amd64).

sorry to bring it up again, but i have a question about this.
i suppose the change donkult was writing about, has been implemented, because lately `apt-get update` downloads translation files (~7mb) for each section, every time. connection is usually slow on this machine, so,
how can i stop this?
shouldnt/cant this, just download the translation diffs from the previous upgrade?
# apt-get remove frontiers

It's ~4 MB for main and a few KB for contrib und non-free. You could disable the download of Translations completely, see 'man apt.conf' under Acquire::Languages. The keyword is "none" here, but keep in mind that you need to remove all Translation-* files from /var/lib/apt/lists, too. Yet, you don't have access to the long descriptions anymore then…
Diffs are not created for them so far - they are also only provided in bz2 compression - but i am not sure if this will ever change. Mirror people usually hate lot of (small) files and most people hate slow operations (and pdiffs are currently relatively slow). The later could be improved quiet a bit, but that requires quiet a bit of code in APT and on ftp-master side and is not exactly at the top of my TODO list…
But the LongDescriptions splitout is fresh, so we might get pdiffs in the future…
[i am using pdiffs and i am relatively download-constraint, but the amount of people in the same situation is limited - and i don't care for speed that much and even if i would i have way faster internet access at the uni and my coding time is unfortunately limited]
But to give an idea about the work required: Currently a Packages file is opened, one patch is applied, the Packages file is saved. Same procedure with the next Patch. This means we are doing for each patch a circle over currently 26 MB.
The faster alternative would be to open all the (small) patches, merge those and apply this "big" patch on the Packages file (this merge is a bit of work by itself, but possible non-the-less). For this to work you need to know which patches lead to the target (= current file version) - currently this is decided on the go. In the official debian repo the patches are currently strictly sequential, but others can (and some even do) skip patches (e.g. serverside merging of patches), so we need additional metadata for this to work (aka e.g. the sha1sum the Packages file would have after the patch is applied).

SAN RAMON — A fingerprint lifted from the door of a San Ramon bank led to the arrest of a 35-year-old Florida man, who admitted to twice robbing the same bank branch last year, police said Thursday.
Benjamin Matthew Kairalla robbed the Bank of the West on Sunset Drive on July 1 and again Dec. 6, police said. A fingerprint on the inside of a bank door, lifted from the first robbery, and security camera footage captured during the second robbery led police to Kairalla, who was in custody in Palm Beach, Fla., on five drug-related warrants, police said.
Detectives traveled to Florida last week and interviewed Kairalla, who detailed his involvement in the two robberies last year.
Following Kairalla's confession, the Contra Costa County District Attorney's Office filed two counts of robbery with enhancements. Kairalla remains in custody on $100,000 bail. The FBI has taken over the investigation and will handle the case in federal court.

During my first night's dinner at the Well of Mercy two women, both named Heather, talked me into getting my energy balanced.
During my first night's dinner at the Well of Mercy two women, both named Heather, talked me into getting my energy balanced.
It was nothing personal. We'd only just met, and they knew no more about me than I knew about them. Most of what I knew, in fact, came from this energy-balancing session they both described as "life-changing."
"She knew things about me that I barely knew myself," said Heather, of the practitioner.
"It's hard to describe," said the other Heather. "It's just a really powerful thing."
I'd come to the Well of Mercy primarily to get a handle on my summer writing project, the likes of which, until now, had been unsatisfactory. I don't teach in summer — haven't for years — and as a result, there are two Barbaras, the school one and the summer one. It always takes some time after that last grade is turned in for School Barbara to loosen up and allow Summer Barbara to move in. That's what needed to happen.
I may be a quiet person on the outside, but inside is constant noise. Quiet is encouraged at the Well, which suits Summer Barbara fine.
"Everyone's here for a different reason," Sister Donna reminded us on that first evening. "Respect the space." There are those — I wasn't one — on "silent retreat," wearing buttons that announced it so we'd be doubly sure not to talk with them. At mealtime, those on silent retreat sit by themselves at a table in the corner while the rest of us talk away. Mealtime is the only time when lively conversation is encouraged.
Use of phones is strongly discouraged. When one went off during lunch one day, we'd become so accustomed to being without them that everyone was startled. There's also Wi-Fi, but we're encouraged not to plug in. Of course, you'll find no TVs, no radios. You park your car up on the hill so you don't even think about coming and going. You're just there, for as long as you have come to stay.
There is magic at the Well, though the sisters may call it something else. Whatever it is, it gripped my first few hours. All that quiet, even in the extreme heat, was as welcome as the dramatic thunderstorm that afternoon that bent trees almost parallel with the ground. All around, we could hear dead limbs cracking free and living ones popping.
I took a long walk with Hunter the dog that afternoon, chatting away. That evening, I soaked in the hot tub and read myself to sleep.
On the second day, I started losing track of time. Then I started forgetting my watch. On my afternoon walk, Hunter ran off in the trees while I chatted to myself. A couple of hours passed before I realized it. I found myself sitting on benches in the middle of nowhere, just sitting. No agenda, no time.
On the third day, I got my energy balanced. I'd done my reading. I knew what I was in for, sort of.
Energy balancing has scientific roots that take it back to Einstein and two Nobel Prize laureates. Our bodies are surrounded by an energy field that a trained practitioner can "read" and manipulate. When energy is blocked, the body responds negatively. The purpose of an energy balancing is to unblock the clogged energy and get things flowing again. Sort of like a fire hose cleaning its hydrants, a flushing out of sorts.
I admit, part of me didn't believe it. I emailed my husband the night before, "I wish I hadn't signed up. It sounds like hocus-pocus." But what the heck, I thought, I'll try it.
The next morning I met my practitioner at 9:15, and she explained what would happen. I'd lie on the table and she would test my energy fields to see what she was dealing with. It's not uncommon, I'd read the night before, for the body to respond. I might feel tingling, or hot and cold, or other sensations as she moved her hands over my energy fields to free my blockages.
And I did. At one point, my stomach knotted in pain and then released. My head tingled and twitched from side to side. My right hand kept moving, turning up, turning over, and at one point rising several inches off the table.
When she finished, we talked. "Open but depleted," she told me. It's unusual to find someone whose energy fields are so open with the first session, she said — something we both attributed to my two days at the Well. As for the depleted part — "Don't say yes too quickly to what others want you to do," she advised.
For the next hour, I walked the grounds, eventually lying on a hammock by the river. Hocus pocus or not, I felt different.
"So, how was it?" asked Heather and Heather at lunch.
"Good," I said. "I liked it."
It's been a week since my energy-balancing, retreat week at the Well. Was it the quiet? Was it the great food? The company? Or was it something else? I can't say. All I can say is, something worked.

Apple releases iPod mini in Korea
"Apple Computer Inc. announced the domestic release of its portable music player, the iPod mini, in Seoul yesterday, hoping its latest product will overcome the disappointing market performances of earlier models.
'We believe iPod mini could become a huge success in Korea and other places such as China or Taiwan where flash-memory music players still dominate the market,' said Yeo Eng Yiong, Apple's portable devices product marketing manager for Asia-Pacific.
'The main reason that iPod models didn't catch on with Korean consumers in the past was the high prices for the products. However, iPod mini now comes at a very affordable price and we believe it will have a great success in Korea considering its huge advantage in storage capacity,' he added."

Can I get a Mini in the U.S. Please???
A bit off topic…why is it that Europe gets all the cool stuff 2-5 years before the U.S. sees it, and then we have a company like Apple here, and they can't even meet U.S. demand before they start shipping them out of the country…
Posted by bikepodmini in Irvine, CA on July 28, 2004 at 11:17 AM (CDT)
Why do you think you are better than anyone else? Last time I checked, the minis weren't even made in the US. Thus, they wouldn't be "shipping them out of the country". There's enough hubris on the web without you adding to it.
Posted by shouldntlistentoipodonbike in Irvine, CA on July 28, 2004 at 12:26 PM (CDT)
I'm not sure that his comment amounts to hubris. That's a pretty strong statement. It's reasonable to expect that Apple should meet the demands of the original market before it opens up more demand for a product. I also wonder why we can't get some of the same cool electronics that they have in Europe. I assume that it isn't because companies are holding back, but more because they don't think that there is a market here.
Posted by ChrisVA in Irvine, CA on July 28, 2004 at 1:34 PM (CDT)
Never said I was better than anyone else, did I?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but Apple is a U.S. company, started way back in 1976. It's pretty common that electronics (other things as well, for that matter) are sent overseas because the labor is so much cheaper. Just because something isn't made in the U.S., doesn't mean it wasn't designed in the U.S.
I wasn't trying to say anything bad about another country or anything, not sure why it was taken that way. I'm just saying that it is strange for a company to be having such a supply problem, to make it worse by increasing the demand for it.
Based on your interpretation of my statement, you could say why is Europe better than anyone else for getting all the cool cell phones, why is Japan better than anyone else for getting all the cool console gaming systems before anyone else… Don't mistake my comments for that type of nonsense.
P.S. I'll take my iPod on my bike if I want to, that is, when I actually get it.
Have a nice day.

Posted by Pricey in Irvine, CA on July 28, 2004 at 4:09 PM (CDT)
I don't think that $50 is that much of a difference in price so that a previously "dissapointing" in sales product could suddenly turn into a huge success. I think it's safe to say that the mini's aesthetic appeal is what matters most to people who buy them over the regular iPod.
Posted by Sraphim in Irvine, CA on July 28, 2004 at 5:41 PM (CDT)
Correction noted on the designer.
Apple is still a U.S. company, if I'm not again mistaken…
Sraphim. I somewhat agree with you. I like the way the Mini looks, mostly, however there's more to it.
The size of the unit appeals to me, over the iPod, since I'll be using it to work out and what not. The size also seems to make me think the unit is just a tiny bit more rugged than the regular iPod brother, since the moving parts (i.e., hard drive) are smaller, which means less mass, which means less accelleration during movement. Don't get me wrong, I haven't calculated anything here, just guessing from what I know of physics.
I also only have 2GB worth of music that I like, so 20GB won't do me much good, although I wouldn't complain if the Mini had 10GB.

Apple Australia iPod mini "Menu Button" Problem.
Most of the minis distributed in Australia has this problem. I got a victim of this problem. Probably 1 of 5 , = 20% a conservative guess- T-estimate based on what I read in OZ forum (whirlpool.net.au). A lot of us is returning the item for repair?, replacement probably.
I like to know if the problem is also prevalent in other countries.
The problem is: the menu button, back, next and pause/play buttons are not working. The scroller and the enter button (middle one) are working. You can not turn off the ipod (i.e. pause/play button is not working). Toggling the Hold button back and forth will get you to navigated the menu.
Having this problem, the iPod mini is useable. As you know we have to pay US$30 more on this ipod (mini).
Again, I will to know if other countries has this problem. I think, this is manufacturing problem, probably the glues sip in the contacts or the contact points protection has not been removed. These ipod minis are "Assembled in China".
Another thing, 3 Gen Ipods in Australia are "Assembled in China" have ordinary white LED backlit and "Assembled in Taiwan" have blue backlit LED according to one guy. I saw 3 Gen Ipods with Blue LED in some of the store.

Are the ipod minis in USA now (July/August 2004) ordered and delivered are problem free? I just spend a lot of time returning my mini and convincing the sales persons in one of retailers Melbourne, Australia about this "Menu Button Problem". I am trying to believe that probably it is not worth getting this ipod mini. I am still waiting for a replacement.
Please note, that you can reply here even you are not a registered member. Are really like to know if this problem occurs in other part of the world aside Australia.
Posted by NS in Irvine, CA on July 30, 2004 at 12:40 AM (CDT)
Unfortunately, you can't edit what is posted. It should read "spent a lot of time…" not spend :-)
Posted by NS in Irvine, CA on July 30, 2004 at 12:41 AM (CDT)
The original poster is right. It's BEYOND me, that when I STILL can't find an iPod mini for me to buy here in the good old USA, that Apple is releasing them for wide distribution in Korea, Japan etc. ????
Great for Apple (huge buzz, hard to find so the buzz increases even more) BAD for us (hard to find, long waiting period). :(

ipod mini has the same wheel problems. the menu butoon ist blocked. with moving the hold button you can navigate for an backward
Posted by chris in Irvine, CA on August 5, 2004 at 3:59 AM (CDT)
I know there is a huge wait for these, but Apple has been somewhat quiet about how long that wait actually is. Does anyone have an estimate on this? A month…six? And, more to the point, does anyone know what Apple has done to increase the supply lines of these things? I have heard somewhere that the supplier of the hard-drives has doubled their production capacity, but we still don't know what kind of reduction in lag time that will mean to the consumer…if any.
Has anyone purchased one of these things, say, at apple.com and received it already? How long did it take?

I live in Korea, went to the Apple Store, contacted the online store - BELIEVE ME, there are no iPod minis to be found in Korea. And if anybody actually has one, I'd bet a year's salary that they were friends of the salespeople at Apple Korea.

Just got my mini (UK) Ive got the menu problem too. If its as many as 1 in 5 then its like;ly ill not see a replacement in a VERY long time. Cant begin to describe how disapointd and angry i am - Apple have just plummeted in my estimations.
Posted by Nick in Irvine, CA on August 8, 2004 at 8:56 AM (CDT)
I just got my ipod mini and im dissapointed to see after this long wait the menu button doesnt work, does anyone have any ideas on a way to fix it, or am i doomed to a life time of anxiety thanks to apple?
Posted by jossh in Irvine, CA on August 9, 2004 at 12:17 AM (CDT)
I received my first iPod mini (blue) ordered at the AppleStore on July 26th and returned it on July 27th here in Germany. It had the glue problem and half of the touch sensitivity of the clickwheel was missing on that device. I received my replacement unit on August 3rd and it worked fine - for at least 6 1/2 days. The MENU button on the mini clickwheel stopped working yesterday. It's unusable now - only works together with SELECT as RESET KEY.
You can read it all around the Internet, but AppleStore & Support in Germany was completely unaware of the problem, telling me that so far during 2 weeks they had only one defective clickwheel. Liars! Or am I just the only lucky guy in Germany with two crappy units in a row. Probably a software bug and not hardware???
I will return the device tomorrow and my second replacement will arrive August 16th. Good luck then….Apple ;-(((

Hey meckardt,
I got an ipod mini from Malaysia just recently (the silver one), the next day, like yours the MENU button clickwheel button stopped working. Went back to the service center to fix it. That was 2 weeks ago.
Now, it happened again. Menu button not working. It's abit fustrating to have it get sent back of the same problem.

Derry Police Dept. promotes 2 officersBy HUNTER MCGEE
Union Leader Correspondent
October 18. 2013 9:33PM
DERRY — Derry police filled two key personnel positions Friday from within the department as a lieutenant and sergeant were both sworn in by Police Chief Ed Garone.
A 20-year veteran of the force, Frank Stoncius was promoted from sergeant to lieutenant; and Edward Budroe, a 14-year veteran was promoted to sergeant, said Capt. Vernon Thomas.
They were sworn in by Garone during a ceremony at the department.
Stoncius fills a position left by former Lt. Jon Twiss, a 28-year veteran of the force who left in August to become the police chief in Fremont.
Beginning last month, Derry police administrators looked from among the eight sergeants on staff to fill the post, Thomas said. And once the lieutenant's job was filled, it would in turn create a need to fill the vacant sergeant's post from the remaining officers on board, Thomas said.
"This will be an opportunity for several people who have experience and are interested in getting promoted," Thomas said.
The lieutenant job pays a salary of about $70,000 a year.
Stoncius was hired by the department in 1993. He has worked as a sergeant for three-and-a-half years and also served as shift supervisor, Thomas said.
Stoncius has had many specialized assignments during his police career, Thomas said. He was assigned to OHRV patrol and was a field training officer. He also assisted Thomas with the School Safety Program and was a representative for the Town Safety Committee, Thomas said.
Budroe began his career as a part-time officer with the Hampton Police Department in 1998. He was then hired by the Derry Police Department in 1999, Thomas said. He worked as a patrol officer before being assigned to the detective division in 2008.
During his career, Budroe has worked as a field training officer, a defense tactics instructor and a Taser instructor.
To attract the right candidates for the job, the department is willing to offer relatively higher paying salaries, Thomas said, adding that it is difficult to find qualified applicants without providing a salary of that scale.
It is a lot of money in a difficult economy, but those chosen for the position will earn every dollar, Thomas said.
"We make sure the officers earn it each day," Thomas said. "The job is not like any other. They make split-second decisions that get evaluated by others for months, perhaps years."

Chuck Pyle, a distinctive singer/songwriter, will be in concert at the Millwood Junction on March 9 at 8 p.m. Pyle, also known as the Zen Cowboy, will play many of his original songs at this concert, which will be opened by Katya Chorover.
Pyle has played in Durango, and knows that area. His good friend, Patty Larkin, has also played at the Millwood in the past.
Pyle has won high praise from both fans and peers alike throughout an inspired performance career of over 40 years. When reviewers first gave him the "Zen Cowboy" moniker, he decided to, as he says, "Always ride the horse in the direction it's going," and took the nickname to heart, shaving his head and blending his upbeat perspective with old-fashioned horse sense. He mixes infectiously hummable melodies with straight-from-the-saddle poetry, quoting bumper stickers, proverbs, world leaders and old cowboys. "I got the nickname 'The Zen Cowboy' from back when I was writing songs about the outdoors. The contradiction about me talking about a new age scenario and songs about the west made me a Zen Cowboy. That was back in 1991. I just kept up the contradiction," Pyle said.
Pyle has had a few of his songs recorded by other people, specifically the late Chris LeDoux, John Denver, The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and Jerry Jeff Walker. He's been singing since he was about 4 years old - "Before I was smart enough to be embarrassed" - and also started piano about that time. He started playing the ukelele when he was 14 years old, and just played simple folk music. "But that's what got me started on guitar," he said. He didn't start writing songs until 1974. While fans love his recordings, they adore Chuck's live performance. The first time he made an audience laugh, he was "hooked". A nimble guitarist, critics say his sense of rhythm is more like a fine classical, or jazz, soloist, his songwriting musically sophisticated yet full of uncluttered space.
"The songwriting, without exception, produces ecstasy when it's all done and it comes together," Pyle said. "And so does a performance. But CDs endure when a performance is forgotten," he said.
The Chuck Pyle Finger-Style approach to guitar has distinguished him as a true original, earning him invitations to teach at such prestigious events as The Puget Sound Guitar Workshop and The Swannanoa Gathering. His music has made him a favorite of Bill & Melinda Gates who have had him play at their home in Seattle. Since writing the theme-song for a PBS series called Spirit of Colorado, he's attained local fame, and even sings for the opening session of the Colorado State Legislature.
He has recorded 13 CDs all together, and he's working on a Christmas album right now.
Pyle came from Iowa in 1965 when, "Boulder was mostly gravel streets", and resides on the front range of Colorado. He does 100 dates a year all across the country, playing festivals and theaters, coffeehouses and house concerts.
This fundraiser will benefit the Mancos Heritage Project, which hopes to make a series of physical upgrades to Mancos, reflecting our "pride of place."
Tickets are available at the Millwood Junction Restaurant, Southwest Sound in Durango, and Rocky Mountain OneStop in Cortez.

Bishop served Ukrainian Catholics
Priest confronted the Vatican over mandatory retirement and ordination of married ministers
By Jordan HEATH- RAWLINGS Saturday, August 9, 2003 - Page F10
Toronto -- Isidore BORECKY, who served as Ukrainian Eparch for Toronto and Eastern Canada for more than half a century, died in his sleep on July 23 at Toronto Western Hospital after a long illness. He was 92.
His death came mere hours before Reverend Stephen CHMILAR was installed as Ukrainian Catholic bishop of Toronto and Eastern Canada, the post Father BORECKY fought long and hard to keep.
Born in Ostrivets, Ukraine, on October 1, 1911, Father BORECKY dedicated more than 60 years of his life to the priesthood, and spent his time fostering religious vocations, establishing lay organizations, churches and senior citizens homes for Ukrainian Catholics.
Father BORECKY, Canada's last bishop ordained by Pope Pius Twelfth, entered the priesthood in Munich in July of 1938. He then left Germany for Canada in November of the same year.
From 1938 to 1941, he worked in several churches in Saskatchewan and Manitoba. In 1941, he was appointed pastor at Saint John the Baptist Church in Brantford, Ontario, where he would work for seven years, serving his faithful as well as mission parishes in nearby Grimsby, Niagara Falls, St. Catharines, Thorold and Welland.
On March 3, 1948, Father BORECKY was named by Pope Pius Twelfth to the post of Apostolic Exarch of Eastern Canada. He was consecrated in St. Michael's Cathedral on May 27, and began to organize the new exarchate. During the next eight years, he would achieve his most memorable goal, as the exarchate was raised to the status of eparchy, or diocese, in 1956.
Some of Father BORECKY's most notable work came in Toronto during this period, when he oversaw the rise of many Catholic church institutions -- he encouraged parishioners to erect St. Michael's Roman Catholic Church -- and helped to integrate Eastern Rite Catholic schools into the framework of what would eventually become the Toronto Catholic District School Board.
On February 24, 1952, Father BORECKY celebrated a divine liturgy at St. Teresa's Church, and during the service he encouraged the faithful to begin the construction of their own church building.
A church property was purchased for $1,500 and on March 22, 1954, Father BORECKY blessed it. Parishioners donated their time and labour and on September 6, 1954, the parish hall was opened. The consecration of the church was celebrated on October 16, 1954, and Reverend Walter FIRMAN was appointed the first parish priest.
As leader of Canada's largest Ukrainian Catholic diocese, Father BORECKY was very approachable, said Reverend Taras DUSANOWSKYJ, who is currently pastor at St. Peter and Paul Ukrainian Catholic Church in Toronto.
"He was very much oriented towards his people," he said. "He was very welcoming, open and certainly ecumenical.
"He had a relationship with everyone. He knew all his clergy by name, he knew a lot of the parishioners. He was a very warm person."
He was also a man who stood devoutly for his eparchy's right to practise the Eastern Rites.
Serving as bishop at a time after the Vatican decreed in 1929 that no married men could be ordained into the priesthood, he would arrange for his priests who had wives or wished to marry to be transported to Yugoslavia or Ukraine, where they could be ordained in the traditional Eastern rites, which does not require celibacy.
Father DUSANOWSKYJ, who is one of 40 married priests out of about 75 in the eparchy, said the Vatican did not take well to his plans, but couldn't stop a man who was so strong-minded.
"Certainly there were times when he got his wrist slapped, or he would be called in so they could complain," he said. "But for the most part he simply ignored it because he knew that this was part of our tradition, and without married clergy our eparchy would have been in a tremendous shortage."
Father BORECKY kept the title of bishop until 1998, at the age of 86, 11 years past his required retirement age, when he relinquished it after five years of sparring with the Vatican over the naming of bishop Roman DANYLAK as apostolic administrator for the Toronto eparchy.
Father BORECKY confronted the Vatican over the rule, which states that bishops must retire at the age of 75. He contended that the rule did not apply to him, as he was leader of an Eastern Rite church.
One last accolade came in December of last year, when Ukrainian President Leonid KUCHMA gave him, along with Archbishop Vsevolod MAJDANSKI of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church in the United States, special commendation orders for service to Ukraine.
Father BORECKY's funeral was held on July 26 at the Ukrainian Catholic Church of the Holy Dormition, his funeral mass led by Ukraine's Cardinal Lubomyr HUSAR, the Major Archbishop of Lviv and spiritual leader to more than five million Ukrainian Catholics worldwide. He has been buried in the family plot at Mount Peace Cemetery.

Rules for posting
FaithWriters provides these forums for Christian fellowship, encouragement, inspiration, instruction, support and guidance. It is a place where you can receive answers to your Urgent Prayer Requests, relax in The Water Cooler, take part in a thought provoking Bible Study, look at your beliefs in the Theology Section, and so very much more.
New members, we ask that you introduce yourselves in the Newbies Nook before posting to other forums. You will be given a warm welcome and we hope you will feel very much at home. Please feel free to share as much or as little about yourself as you feel comfortable doing.
Because of the very relational nature of this community, members grow to feel comfortable in being transparent. We often share the deepest desires of our hearts and profound personal struggles, allowing each other to see the scars in our hearts. This openness is what has turned an online community into a family of faith. For this reason, it is important that all members understand the need for unity and peace here at FaithWriters. This is not a place for quarrels or confrontations - it is a place of peace, love, encouragement, and comfort.
All members are encouraged to read James 3:1-12, and approach this community from this Biblical perspective. Remember, "Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark. The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body."
In a community such as this, where every kind of question is welcomed and discussed, there are bound to be some who may feel offended and feel "led" to post an indignant response. These types of posts are found on every Christian bulletin board on the Internet ... except FaithWriters. If you feel led to attack another member, let me offer a single word of caution: Don't.
If you find yourself upset or offended by a post made by another member, we ask that you first approach the member privately (using the free private message service here on the boards) and discuss your concerns gently and with grace. If, after private discussion, the issue has not been resolved, only then should you contact a Moderator to discuss the matter. At no point should personal attacks be made publicly, or privately, against another member.
We do not mean that everyone should agree with everyone or be lockstepped in thought and attitude. Disagreeing with an opinion is very different to being critical about a person or rude to them. So while you may discuss differences of opinion, please always do so with respect and grace toward the person. As Christian writers, we should take great care to always communicate effectively and in a way that is honoring to God.
FaithWriters reserves the right to delete hate posts or those that are disrespectful to others, and to ban the member who leaves them. We do not allow sexually explicit or vulgar posts, obscene or offensive language, or prejudice.
Together, we can build this ministry for the Lord, and reach thousands of other people in need of the support and encouragement that we all enjoy here, without fear of being judged.

Thank you and God Bless,

Re: Rules for posting
Question? When I post my stories, poems and so forth, the paragraphs are bunched up and the sentences run together. I write in my Word program, then copy and paste into the space. I make sure I paragraph correctly but after copying and pasting they appear on this site without proper paragraphs and no spacing. WHAT am I doing wrong?
Re: Rules for posting
Hi Janice.
Formatting in Word is not transferred over when you submit your articles, although I would have thought white space would have been.
Copy and paste your article into the submission box and then hit preview. From there, you can manually add in the double space between paragraphs (if it's not showing).
If you want to add other things, such as indents, centering, italics, bold, etc., you need to use a little HTML code. You can find the basic ones here:
Hope that helps.
I should mention, just use a double space between paragraphs. Indenting is not necessary for online submissions (or in publishing generally).

NH clergy call for abolishing state's death penaltyBy PAT GROSSMITH
New Hampshire Union Leader
November 12. 2013 9:48AM
CONCORD - New Hampshire church leaders have issued a call to abolish the death penalty and for clergy to discuss the issue with their congregations.
Bishop James Hazelwood of the New England Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, the Right Rev. A. Robert Hirschfield of the Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire, Bishop Peter Anthony Libasci of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Manchester, and the Rev. Gary Schulte, conference minister of the N.H. Conference of the United Church of Christ, are encouraging their clergy to discuss their objections to the death penalty during the weekend of Nov. 23-24.
Bishop Hirschfield called on clergy statewide to participate in a "Preach-In" on the death penalty Nov. 24, coinciding with the Feast of Christ the King Sunday, when the lectionary readings focus on Jesus's own execution.
"When I was informed that our elected representatives would be considering a bill calling for repeal of the death penalty in New Hampshire, it seemed fitting to call on church leaders to urge our people to reflect on this legislation through the lens of Scripture and the tradition of Christian teaching," said Bishop Hirschfield. "Christ the King Sunday, which falls this year on Nov. 24, reminds Christians of the sovereignty of God in all aspects of our lives and society. The execution and resurrection of Jesus remind us of the futility of acts of violence, hatred, retribution and fear as means to establish a just and peaceful society.
"Our churches, for too long divided, have a special opportunity this year to reflect and pray together about how Christian teaching leads us to a society that's closer to the reign of God. It is for this reason that the leaders of so many denominations are joining in this effort," he said.
Bishop Libasci said the Feast of Christ the King is an opportunity for Catholics and other Christians to support victims of crime and their families, while remembering that those who commit crimes are capable of redemption - of coming to know Jesus as we see in the story of Christ's own execution.
"The death penalty neither deters others, nor brings this perpetrator to understanding, but instead, in the worst of ironies, publicly validates the very act of taking a human life," he said.
Bishop Hazelwood said the death penalty has proven to be an ineffective tool for crime deterrence. "In all likelihood it has been applied to persons who later could have been proven innocent and it does not stand the test of the teachings of Jesus. There is no logical, practical or spiritual reason to continue the death penalty in New Hampshire," he said.
The Rev. Gary Schulte said in the Christian tradition we are taught by Jesus that "an eye for an eye" and a "tooth for tooth" - or life for a life - is not the ethical standard by which we should live our lives.
"I also believe this applies to our collective responsibility as citizens of the state of New Hampshire. While we have a responsibility to protect our citizens, vengeance and state-sponsored violence are not the way we make our society safer for all," he said.
This effort is a religious and educational response to bipartisan legislation recently filed in the New Hampshire House to repeal New Hampshire's death penalty. The New Hampshire Council of Churches is an organizational member of the N.H. Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty, which is spearheading the repeal campaign.
Last week, the Supreme Court's upheld the state's death penalty in the case of Michael Addison, convicted of capital murder in the 2006 shooting death of Manchester police officer Michael Briggs. Addison, 33, a former Boston gang member, is the only person on death row in New Hampshire.
His appeal, on the legal issue of proportionality, is still pending before the Supreme Court.

Eddie Gale
After several years off records, pianist Cecil Taylor finally had an opportunity to document his music of the mid-'60s on two Blue Note albums (the other one was Conquistador). Taylor's high-energy atonalism fit in well with the free jazz of the period but he was actually leading the way rather than being part of a movement. In fact, this septet outing with trumpeter Eddie Gale, altoist Jimmy Lyons, Ken McIntyre (alternating between alto, oboe and bass clarinet), both Henry Grimes and Alan Silva on basses, and drummer Andrew Cyrille is quite stunning and very intense. In fact, it could be safely argued that no jazz music of the era approached the ferocity and intensity of Cecil Taylor's. ~ Scott Yanow

Halloween theft
Theft mars Halloween spirit in EppingBy JASON SCHREIBER
Union Leader Correspondent
October 21. 2013 9:42PM
If you happen to find a head, hands and feet belonging to Frankenstein, give Epping police a call.
The creepy Halloween display near a mailbox in front of a residence on Hamilton Drive disappeared last week.
The display featured a Frankenstein mask over a large ball with the hands and feet positioned to make it look like Frankenstein was emerging from the ground.
The thief also swiped a cornstalk, leaving behind a second cornstalk and the fake spider webs on the house.
The homeowner, who asked not to be named, said her family always puts out a display with lots of decorations, but this was the first year with a Frankenstein.
"They've never bothered anything, and this year we didn't do as much and they took what we had. It's frustrating," she said.
Police believe Frankenstein was taken sometime after 8 p.m. on Oct. 15.
"This time of year brings out this type of element. Fortunately, this is the first theft," Epping police Capt. Jason Newman said.
Frankenstein's disappearance has disappointed other families on the street.
"Of course we noticed the police come and the kids are wondering why strangers are coming in the night and stealing stuff. It's a hard thing to explain and the kids worry," said one Hamilton Drive neighbor.
Halloween decorations can often become targets for goblins looking to spoil the season, but so far it hasn't been a big problem, local police officials said.
The town of Chester is known for its displays, with more than 200 scarecrows located around town to raise money for the Chester Historical Society.
Chester Police Chief William Burke said there have been no reports of vandalism and he hopes it stays that way.
"In general people are stopping and taking pictures and are really enjoying them," he said of the scarecrows, one of which is a police officer in a cruiser in front of the police department.
Hampstead police Lt. John Frazier said his department hasn't received many reports of Halloween display thefts over the years, but he offered some advice.
"My advice would be for people to bring their decorations in and not leave them out overnight. Typically it's teens and twenty-somethings out drinking that find opportunity to take the stuff if they're out driving by late at night," he said.Disappearing decorations haven't been a problem in Rye either, but Police Chief Kevin Walsh stressed the importance of keeping the displays in a location where there's a light always shining on them or a motion light.Newman said lights are probably the best deterrent.
"During the Halloween season we typically handle numerous calls related to stolen pumpkins or decorations, and also damage to mailboxes or smashed pumpkins. It's difficult to keep pumpkins and decorations safe from these crimes. Perhaps keeping lights on at night would help," he said.

2011 Record (SEC): 12-1 (7-1)
Returning Starters (Off/Def/ST): 13 (7/4/2)
Ryan Trapp and Kristina Taylor | Staff Writers
For an Alabama program that's known for building stalwart defenses, this year's edition of the Crimson Tide returns a loaded offense. Headlining the returning starters is the bulk of an offensive line which includes Outland Trophy winner and 1st Team All-American Barrett Jones. Joining Jones in the trenches will be All-American contenders Chance Warmack, Anthony Steen and D.J. Fluker, who together claim a combined 95 career starts. Sophomore and mega-prospect Cyrus Kouandijo should work the blind side as he tries to return from the ACL injury that cut his freshman season short. They'll be blocking for last year's BCS National Championship Game MVP, quarterback AJ McCarron. A winning the starting job prior to the 2011 season, the junior silenced his critics to the tune of 2,600 yards, 16 touchdowns and only five interceptions (including a streak of 152 straight attempts without a pick). Despite having to replace all-everything back Trent Richardson who left for the NLF, the running backs lining up behind McCarron are the type you'd expect out of Tuscaloosa: big, fast, and bursting with talent. The Crimson Tide will turn to junior Eddie Lacy, who rushed for 7.1 yards per carry and seven touchdowns last season. Junior Jalston Fowler, redshirt freshman Dee Hart and true freshman T.J. Yeldon provide with more backfield depth than any other team in the country. Although McCarron's top two targets from 2011 (Marquis Maze and Darius Hanks) are now in the NFL, the Tide does return a dangerous wide receiver group. Expect Kenny Bell, Kevin Norwood, DeAndrew White and Christion Jone to compete for catches, while tight end Michael Williams and true freshman Eddie Williams could emerge as big time threats as well.
While there's they type of raw talent you'd expect out of a Nick Saban defense, there's very little experience. Gone are the likes of All-Americans Mark Barron, Dont'a Hightower, Dre Kirkpatrick, DeQuan Menzie and Courtney Upshaw, along with nose guard Josh Chapman and linebacker Jarrell Harris. Fortunately, the Bama defense features at least one returning starter on each level. Seniors Damion Square and Jesse Williams are the two incumbents on the defensive line, where they'll look to occupy blockers for the Tide's linebackers to wreak havoc. Nico Johnson and C.J Mosley return from one of the best group of linebackers in college football, and prized youngsters Trey DePriest and Adrian Hubbard figure to work into the rotation as well. Former second-team All American Robert Lester is the lone anchor in the secondary, while hard-hitting sophomore Vinnie Sunseri expects to settle in at the other safety spot. Moving on without two All-Americans at corner is never easy, but the rotation of Dee Milliner, John Fulton, and junior college transfer Deion Belue has Saban excited for the heights this group can reach. Despite the significant defensive losses, Alabama is equipped with the nation's number one recruiting class to help fill some holes and make a run for a second straight national championship.
Alabama's 2012 season kicks off with a marquee non-conference matchup against Denard Robinson and the Michigan Wolverines. Two weeks later, the Tide travel to Fayetteville to take one Arkansas, one of the SEC West's "big three." However, the game everyone's circling is a rematch of the 2012 BCS National Championship Game against the LSU Tigers in Baton Rouge on November 3. A win against the Tigers, combined with an earlier victory over Arkansas, should put the Tide in the SEC Championship Game, where they'll likely meet either the Georgia Bulldogs or Steve Spurrier and the South Carolina Gamecocks. They'll need to win those four top-ten matchups en route to an undefeated season if they want to do what they couldn't in 2010: repeat as national champs.
BURNING QUESTION: Can Nick Saban retool the defense?
Replacing one All-American is difficult enough, replacing seven? Daunting. That is the task Saban and the Tide face coming into this season. The biggest issue is not inherent talent, but rather experience. In his years at the helm in Tuscaloosa, Saban has recruited a top-three class each year, including this year's class which ranks number one in defense. There's potential all over the place, but just seven true freshmen saw the field last season. If there's any coach who can build an elite defense from the ground up its Nick Saban. And he'll need to if they want to win their third national championship in four years.

This Week In Island History
The news of 10 and 15 years ago is from the Jamestown Press. The news of 100 years ago came from the collection of the Newport Historical Society.
100 years ago
From the Newport Journal, Aug. 12, 1913
One of the most largely attended and brilliant dances ever given at the casino was held Monday evening for the benefit of the Naval Relief Association. Bands from the Utah and Arkansas played continuously, alternating with each other.
The Jamestown Historical Society's exhibit, which opened Wednesday in the Town Hall, is a departure, and, for the first attempt, exceedingly credible. The hall is well filled with articles of a local historical interest, needlework, silver and china predominating. The arrangement is good, giving an opportunity to see each exhibit. The tagging of each article with data represents much painstaking work.
75 years ago
From the Newport Daily News, Aug. 15, 1938
Investigation by everyone from Administrator Harold L. Ickes down into the procedure in the application to Public Works Administration for the construction of the proposed bridge from Saunderstown to Jamestown was invited today by Charles H. Brooks, secretary of the Jamestown Bridge Commission, as the result of charges made by Walter E. O'Hara, independent candidate for governor. O'Hara in Providence made public the text of a letter he sent to Administrator Ickes urging him to investigate an alleged lobby behind the Jamestown Bridge project, and calling for its rejection on the grounds that PWA funds should be used for a new bridge over upper Narragansett Bay to relieve the traffic congestion in Providence.
From the Newport Daily News, Aug. 16, 1938
At the Town Council meeting, A.E. Peacock, minister in charge of the A.M.E. Church in Jamestown, requested the use of the Town Hall for the benefit if the church. This was granted for a fee of 50 cents, and with the provision that the applicant furnish police protection.
50 years ago
From the Newport Daily News, Aug. 13, 1963
A Jamestown tax increase this year of $1,073.38 over last year brought a warning from Alan G. Davenport, manager of the Jamestown Water Co., that the increase may result in an increased rate to water users. The company paid $8,869.58 in taxes to the town last year. This year's tax bill is $9,942.96.
An organizational meeting of the Jamestown Housing Authority was held last night in Town Hall with Peter F. Drury, chairman of the five-member commission, presiding. The five-member commission was appointed by the Jamestown Town Council at a July meeting to consider the construction of low rent housing for the elderly in this town.
Harold E. Shippee, president of the Jamestown Town Council, last night expressed concern over possible quarrying at the Fort Wetherill. A letter received from the Army Corps of Engineers invites the council to discuss this matter or any other subject relating to hurricane flood protection for Narragansett Bay. Shippee felt that the letter indicates that the quarrying project at Wetherill is still active.
25 years ago From the Newport Daily News,
Aug. 12, 1988
State transportation officials Thursday released inspection reports that they maintain show that the 48-year-old Jamestown Bridge is structurally sound.
A report from a gubernatorial task force released Thursday blames both the state and the contractor for problems that stopped construction of the new Jamestown Bridge earlier this year.

From the Jamestown Press,
Aug. 13, 1998
North Pond reservoir is down 17 inches from capacity, but the Town Council Tuesday voted not to implement any more restrictions on the outside residential uses of municipal water.
The state Department of Transportation notified Town Council President Craig Amerigian last week that a proposed infrastructure project at East Ferry had been approved to receive a federal ferryboat discretionary grant of $425,000.
The fourth annual Jamestown island paddle drew over 30 kayakers who paddled the perimeter of the island to benefit local charities.

The Town Council has decided on a more precise location at Taylor Point for a new highway barn. Tuesday night the council unanimously approved a site that is the least visible from nearby roads, but also extends between 60 and 70 feet outside of the area that the previous council marked for the controversial project.
Several residents complained to the Town Council Tuesday night about the mistreatment of points of public access to the water in residential areas around Conanicut Island and asked that the state rights-of-way be better managed or revoked in order to make life more pleasant for islanders.

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) Richard Howell scored 23 points, including the go-ahead basket with 3:06 left, to help No. 16 North Carolina State rally past UNC Asheville 82-80 on Friday night.
Howell finished with 15 rebounds and also knocked down two free throws with 5 seconds left to secure the win for the Wolfpack (4-1), who finally shook free of the Bulldogs late after trailing most of the way. UNC Asheville (1-5) led by seven with 8 1/2 minutes left before N.C. State finally inched ahead, pushing in front when Howell corralled a deflected pass and scored in the paint while drawing an intentional foul.
Scott Wood added 14 points, including a pair of clutch jumpers in the final 3 minutes that helped N.C. State hold on.
Jeremy Atkinson scored a career-high 28 points for the Bulldogs, who lost their fifth straight since beating Western Carolina in the opener.
This looked like a game that would give N.C. State the chance to regroup after a 20-point loss to Oklahoma State in the Puerto Rico Tipoff championship game on Sunday. Instead, N.C. State's struggles continued against an aggressive and opportunistic bunch of Bulldogs who wouldn't go away.
While N.C. State shot 56 percent for the game, it committed 19 turnovers that UNC Asheville converted into 31 points. Meanwhile, the 6-foot-4 Atkinson frustrated the Wolfpack the entire way by being quick enough to get his shot off the dribble or muscle around in the paint. N.C. State tried freshmen Rodney Purvis and T.J. Warren on Atkinson before turning to junior C.J. Leslie in the final minutes.
After the Wolfpack took the 70-69 lead on Howell's basket, Wood followed with a straightaway jumper that pushed the lead to four. Two possessions later, Wood answered a 3-pointer by Trent Meyer with one of his own, losing Keith Hornsby around a screen on the right wing to make it 76-72 with 1:16 left.
UNC Asheville got as close as 80-78 on a three-point play from Hornsby with 16.5 seconds left, but Howell made it a two-possession game with his free throws and the Bulldogs managed a meaningless putback just before the buzzer to end it.
N.C. State improved to 18-0 all-time against UNC Asheville, led by former Wolfpack player Eddie Biedenbach.

I'm Going to Be Taking a Much Needed Break
I've decided to take a break from Blogging. It may be for a day or a week or a month, I don't know. What I do know is that I spend too much time here and neglect to do other things, like earn some money. At the very least I'll not be posting as much. I have much more to say so it may be hard to stay away. In any case there is a lot to read in the archives. You should become a Follower or a Subscriber to this Blog if you don't want to miss anything. Keep in mind I'm still available for speaking engagements. An interview of me is going to appear on YouTube on the 26th. And in March I'll be debating the existence of God as announced here. Set the odds on when I'll post again if you want to! ;-) If you're a first time visitor check out the two important books of mine in the sidebar. Cheers.


text: Sorry for the delay. I'm taking baby in tomorrow morning to weigh. I called today, and she said that as long add he has gained some more weight with supplementing, it would probably be OK to just nurse more, instead of supplementing. That's what I would like to try, and then maybe just go in to weigh him every week or 2 to make sure he's still gaining. I was pumping more as a way to increase my supply. If I can just go back to only nursing, I figure I'd just increase the # of feedings during the day, at least for a while. I guess we'll see what happens with the weigh in tomorrow. Thanks for all of your input. You've been very helpful.

Google privacy policy asks if you want to be tracked
In the past few days, there has been some controversy in the media and on the blogs about Google's new privacy policy, Google overriding the Safari browser's "do not track" feature, and other potential privacy issues. While many Internet users are aware that the "free" online services such as Google and Yahoo! are advertiser supported, receiving compensation from advertisers for the banner ads that appear on every page, paid placement in search engine results, and other revenue sources, most users are unaware that their browsing habits are also tracked, with the information sold to advertisers.
There are several ways that Web services such as Google track users, and these include a variety of "third party" cookies (small text files mostly used for tracking purposes), Web beacons (1 pixel graphic files that are virtually invisible to the user), IP tracking (your browser typically broadcasts its IP address), and other methods. Some browsers, such as Apple's Safari, block third-party cookies by default, while other browsers offer the option to block or allow third-party cookies. In Firefox, third-party cookies can be blocked or managed by going to Tools (in the menu bar), then Options, then Privacy, and then pull down the menu at "History – Firefox will:" and select "Use custom settings for history." Another selection will appear that allows the user to accept third-party cookies by checking the box, or refusing them by unchecking the box. If third-party cookies are accepted, the user can then use the pull-down menu to keep them until they expire (from hours to decades), automatically delete third-party cookies when closing Firefox, or be asked what to do with each cookie. With Internet Explorer, the default medium-high privacy setting in IE blocks most dangerous third-party cookies by default. If desired, IE users can manage their own privacy by clicking on Tools, Internet Options, Privacy, Advanced and then the user can select to accept, block or prompt whenever third-party cookies are encountered. The reason why Internet Explorer does not block all third-party cookies is aptly explained on a Firefox help page: "Some Web sites (e.g. Microsoft's Hotmail, MSN, and Windows Live Mail Webmail) use third-party cookies for purposes that are not necessarily privacy concerns, and disabling third-party cookies may cause problems with those sites."
During a security scan, many of the antispyware utilities such as SuperAntiSpyware and MalwareBytes routinely scan for and delete third-party tracking cookies. Rather than using a security scan to delete tracking cookies that may already be on the computer, which have been busily sending the users' browsing habits to third parties until they are deleted, it may be better to stop or minimize tracking before tracking can take place. Some browsers, such as Firefox, have a "Do Not Track" feature that tells Web sites and their advertisers that this user does not want to be tracked. In Firefox, this feature can be quickly and easily enabled by clicking on Tools, Options, Privacy and then checking the box "Tell Web sites I do not want to be tracked." Even though the user explicitly asks not to be tracked, many Web sites and advertisers do not honor the request, while others will respect the users' wishes. Enabling the "Do Not Track" feature does not apply to beneficial cookies such as shopping cart cookies, or cookies containing saved login information. Some advertisers question blocking their content, which was automatically determined by the tracking and third-party cookies, alleging that it reduces the "user experience" by not allowing user relevant advertising to be displayed. If you ever wondered how banner ads that somewhat applied to your personal interests were displayed in your browser, it was likely based on the third-party tracking cookies that were previously placed on your drive.
In order to help protect your online and browser privacy, there are several useful free browser plug-ins or add-ons that block or otherwise provide control over these third-party cookies and other tracking tools. One of my personal favorites is "DNT+," or Do Not Track +. This free utility, available for download at donottrackplus.com, works on both Macs and PCs with the most commonly used browsers, including Google's Chrome, Firefox, Apple's Safari, and Microsoft's Internet Explorer. DNT+ has a cute, animated video that explains what it does and how to use it on YouTube. As a quick experiment while typing this column, after installing DNT+, I connected to CNN.com, and then clicked on the green DNT+ icon on my browser tool bar. DNT+ reported that it blocked nine trackers, including one social network, three advertising networks and five companies that were tracking visitors to this particular CNN Webpage. With some irony, the San Francisco Chronicle Web page with the story about Google's tracking controversy contained its own trackers: an even dozen trackers, including three social networks, three ad networks, and six other companies tracking visitors to that particular Web page. Since it works on Mac and Windows, with all of the major browsers and is free, Do Not Track + may be a good utility to protect your privacy.
Another interesting and free browser utility that can display a variety of tracking utilities hidden on a Web page is Ghostery, available for free download from ghostery.com.
According to the Ghostery Web site, "Ghostery sees the invisible Web tags, Web bugs, pixels and beacons. Ghostery tracks the trackers and gives you a roll-call of the ad networks, behavioral data providers, Web publishers and other companies interested in your activity." Ghostery empowers the user to decide which, if any, trackers and related privacy threats are to be blocked or allowed. After Ghostery is installed, anytime a Web page is opened, a red box appears in the top right corner of the browser window that displays the tracking cookies, Web bugs, scripts and other tracking devices embedded on that Web page that are rarely disclosed to the viewer of that. Ghostery is a free browser plug-in that works on Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera and Internet Explorer. As an example, on another CNN page that I just opened, Ghostery found 10 tracking tools, all detailed by clicking the ghost icon on the browser toolbar. Once the selection of tracking tools is displayed, Ghostery can provide detailed information about each, and allow the user to permanently block that particular tracking device.
With all of the controversy about Google's new privacy policy, and the various methods of user tracking embedded in most of the Web sites that we visit, it would be a good practice to manage third-party cookies, enable browser "Do Not Track" features (although many Web sites routinely ignore that request), and install both Do Not Track + and Ghostery. While most Web sites track users for legitimate commercial purposes and intend no harm, there is always the slight possibility that that same information can be misused. I put Ghostery and DNT+ on all of my computers because I do not like my Internet usage to be tracked; you should consider doing the same.Listen to Ira Wilsker's weekly radio show on Mondays from 6-7 p.m. on KLVI 560AM.

SAN QUENTIN - Convicted serial killer Wesley Shermantine stirred in his death row cell at 3 a.m. Aug. 26 when prison staffers came to take him out for the day.
SAN QUENTIN - Convicted serial killer Wesley Shermantine stirred in his death row cell at 3 a.m. Aug. 26 when prison staffers came to take him out for the day.
"Shermantine, let's go," he heard, signaling that something was up.
Correctional officers didn't tell him their plans - that he'd be whisked to Linden to point out the old wells he and his former partner in crime, Loren Herzog, used to bury murder victims in a drug-fueled killing spree.
It didn't take him long to figure it out. FBI agents had come to see him five days earlier. Before dawn the day of the excursion, he was strip-searched three times, given a bright orange jumpsuit and placed in full shackles.
"I had more protection than a diplomat in Baghdad," he said, describing up to 20 guards escorting him, each armed with a machine gun and side pistol. He rode in a blacked-out SUV in a convoy of vehicles.
The FBI has said little about its deal with Shermantine, but agents appear ready to resume digging for murder victims based on his word. On Tuesday, an advance team surveyed a spot along Flood Road in Linden where Shermantine said he told them to dig.
In a recent death row interview with The Record, Shermantine detailed the excursion and how he felt returning to the land of his youth for the first time in years.
"I didn't want my emotions to affect me," he said, taking the mind-set that he left the prison only for business and not to reminisce. "I didn't let myself get attached."
Shermantine and Herzog grew up in Linden across the street from each other. They turned to drugs in their teens and led a killing spree beginning in the 1980s until they were arrested in 1999.
Shermantine was convicted of four murders and sent to death row. Herzog was convicted of three murders and given a 78-year prison sentence, which was overturned. He committed suicide Jan. 17 while on parole.
It's unclear how many the duo killed. Shermantine said he is talking about the burial places now to right a wrong that he admits taking part in.
Shermantine said he showed agents four wells near Flood Road on grazing land, including one that remains open with timbers covering its mouth. A fifth location he took them to was in an orchard off Fine Road in Linden.
"I'm trying to man up to my part," he said. "I realize and know in my heart what needs to be done."
In February, Shermantine's tips led officials to unearth five victims. He was enticed by bounty hunter Leonard Padilla, who offered up to $33,000 in reward money. Three were found in a well along Flood Road in Linden.
Shermantine often complains about Padilla being slow to pay him the reward money. The amount so far paid is about $5,000, Padilla said.
Now, the FBI has offered him a total of $1,000 if the new information proves valid, he said. FBI spokeswoman Gina Swankie would not confirm or deny any of Shermantine's statements.
Revealing the burial sites has caused him grief. Shermantine said inmates have threatened him, so he is no longer allowed to socialize on the recreation yard, where he liked to talk, play cards and soak in the sunlight.
This may be how he spends the rest of his life.
"At times I feel like it's not worth it (telling where the bodies are)," said Shermantine, the father of two adult sons. "In my heart, I know it's right."
Shermantine said that on his brief trip to Linden he became frustrated, offering to show the agents next where he buried Cyndi Vanderheiden in Calaveras County, so they could completely recover her remains.
In February, officials found her skull and a femur, but Shermantine said he wished to finish the job. The agents refused, telling Shermantine they were out of time, he said. He was back in his cell by 11:45 a.m., Shermantine said.
Assemblywoman Cathleen Galgiani, D-Stockton, has visited Shermantine in prison multiple times and urged state prison officials to take the killer on such visits by passing a law and writing strongly worded letters.
She had also urged the FBI to take the lead in this recovery effort initially under the control of the San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office.
"Now that they are here, I'm giving them time to see what they will do," she said of the FBI. "I'm not going to let them stop just after the first. I'm watching very carefully."
Galgiani said she believes that the most recent advance work was done before bringing in ground-penetrating radar to find the location of the filled-in well Shermantine showed them near a small bridge near Flood Road.
She was critical of the FBI's secrecy throughout the process. Galgiani is in touch with relatives of victims who may have been hidden in the well. The relatives don't know what to expect, and the lack of information doesn't help their anxiety, she said.
Padilla, who remains in contact with Shermantine by phone, said he is confident agents will find remains in the well they recently surveyed. In March, Shermantine sent Padilla a large map indicating the filled-in well.
After that Padilla said he and his bounty hunting partner Rob Dick took a specially trained canine there and the dog indicated the presence of long lost human remains in the surveyed area.
He believes Shermantine is telling the truth.
"There's no reason that he'd be lying about that," Padilla said. "The next thing is for the FBI to get into the ground."

Have you been looking for a new cooler for your processor? Do you have one of the newer 45nm technology processors that are the must have? Maybe you have a nice cooler for your processor but the temperatures that you are getting are a little higher than you want or getting close. Well, ASUS may just have a great solution to your problem, the newly released cooler called the ASUS Triton 85 CPU Cooler. This cooler utilizes the older and well proven designs of having a base with the fins hovering over with the heat pipes on the side of the Triton 85. The ASUS Triton 85 not only is designed around a well-proven design, it also boasts a large 120mm fan that is supposed to the most silent 120mm cooler on the market. I am interested to see what it looks like and how well it will perform, so let's get to it.
Closer Look:
The packaging that encases the ASUS Triton 85 boasts a very bright and distinctive front, there are all sorts of colors from lime green to black. At the top of the package there is the ASUS logo, with the "Rock Solid. Heart Touching" slogan directly underneath it. More toward the bottom right hand corner is the first glimpse of the Triton 85. The cooler is shown off at a nice angle that allows you to see all of the design aspects of the cooler. The bottom hosts the Triton 85 name with the pitch fork logo coming out of the "I." Under the Triton 85 logo, you are able to see a promise from ASUS saying that the Triton 85 has the "Quietest 120mm Fan Cooling at only 16dBA." The next side of the box has a nice picture of the ASUS Triton 85 installed on a motherboard with arrows showing you how the fan works and how the air is supposed to flow. Above that picture is where you are going to find listed some of the features of the Triton 85. The back of the package is where you are going to find all of the specifications for the Triton 85; the same picture from the front has been shrunken and placed in the upper right hand corner. When you look at the last side, you are going to be able to see some more features of the cooler.
Enough looking at the box, I want to see what this cooler looks like. I am very anxious because of the ASUS name, the company usually has very high quality products. When you take the ASUS Triton 85 out of the box, you are able to see that ASUS packed it in a clear molded plastic to keep it safe from the shipping process. Inside of the package you will also find an installation guide for the Triton 85 that will help you install the mounting hardware.
Speaking of the mounting hardware, for the ASUS Triton 85 it is located in the black cardboard box that was packed in the plastic molding holding the unit. When you open this package up, you are going to see the AMD and Intel mounting hardware. There is also a tube of ASUS's thermal compound in case you do not have any laying around, and four little screws that you need to use to mount the socket 775 hardware.
Now that we know what the packaging for the ASUS Triton 85 looks like and exactly what is inside of it, let's take a detailed look at the cooler itself.
