This chapter describes the standard library reports that are available to you, how to use reports, control the report mailings you receive, as well as how to modify and create your own reports. The use of the two report modes, inline and print layout, is also explained.
Reports provide you with the insight you need to assess the performance of your network infrastructure. They also allow you to see whether defined KPIs and SLAs are being achieved. They enable you to quickly identify any problem areas and, together with the use of alerts, ensure that the necessary corrective action is taken promptly and accurately where required.
RUEI comes with an extensive library of predefined (standard) reports that provides you instant and powerful insight into your organization's monitored operations. These reports are available through the report library, which you can view by clicking the Reports tab. This is shown in Figure 2-1.
Figure 2-1 The Standard Report Library
The report library is made up of categories (or folders) containing reports dedicated to particular aspects of the monitored traffic. This enables you to quickly locate the information most relevant to you. These reports are fully describes in Appendix T, "Standard Report Library". The information available in each report category is outlined in Table 2-1.
Provides information about monitored application pages. This includes page views, the objects that appear on the pages, and their loading and reading times.
Provides information about monitored application pages. This includes page views, the objects that appear on the pages, and their loading and reading times.

Oracle ADF suites
Provides information about Oracle ADF-based applications.
Provides cumulative information about the monitored Web site, such as failures, total traffic, sessions, and page views.
Provides information about client sessions based on assigned IP ranges.
Provides information about Siebel-based applications.
Contains access to historical user flow dataFoot 1 .
Provides information about failed or slow hits, and performance killers.
User flows
Provides client information about all defined Web application user flows. For example, how many user flows were initiated by visitors, how long did they take, and how many were completed and aborted.
WebLogic Portal
Provides information about WebLogic Portal-based applications.
Footnote 1 In version 6.5.1, transactions were renamed to user flows, and there are important differences in the way they are processed and reported.
You can modify the standard report library to better suit your organization's requirements. Using menus, you can rename, remove, or add a report category or subcategory.
It is not possible to modify or delete any standard report. Nor is possible to change their associated permissions. As such, these reports are available to authorized users on a read-only basis. If you want to use a modified version of a standard report, you should use the standard report as the basis for a custom report. The procedure to do this is described in Section 2.10, "Creating New Reports".
To add a category to the main report library, right click the Report categories item. The context menu shown in Figure 2-2 appears.
Figure 2-2 Report Categories Menu
The following options are available:
Add public category to make the new category available to all users.
Add private category to make the new category only available to you.
After selecting the required option, you are prompted to specify a unique name for the new category. Report categories are ordered alphabetically, and private categories appear below public ones.
To add a subcategory, or to rename or remove a category, right click the appropriate category. The menu shown in Figure 2-3 appears.
Figure 2-3 Report Category Sub-Menu
The following options are available:
Add subcategory to create a new subcategory under the selected category. This new subcategory will be available to all users.
Edit Category to rename or move the category to another location.
Remove category to delete the category. You are prompted to confirm the deletion.
Report Permissions and Power Users
Each user-created report and report category is assigned a usage type. This is either Business or IT, or both. This distinction is also the basis for the user rights explained in Section 14.2, "Understanding User Roles and Permissions". If you have been assigned Analytical or Full access level rights as both a Business and IT user (that is, you are a so-called power user), you should be aware that access to the reports you create is controlled on individual report level, and not report category level.
For example, if you create a new public category with the usage type Business, such as the one shown in Figure 2-4, any IT-related reports that are saved to this category cannot be accessed by Business users.
Figure 2-4 Creation of New Public Business Category
For this reason, it is recommended that you do not mix reports aimed at different types of users within categories.
You can use the Mailing facility to obtain a ready overview of the reports you receive through automatic E-mails, and the frequency (daily, weekly, or monthly) with which they are sent to you. An example is shown in Figure 2-5.
Figure 2-5 Example Mailing Profile
Use the check boxes to the right of a report to specify the frequency with which you want to receive a report. Alternatively, right click a report and select Mailing and the report frequency (Daily, Weekly, or Monthly). You can also select Remove from mailing to stop receiving the selected report.
You can use the Daily, Weekly, or Monthly command buttons in the Send mailing now panel to request previous reports. If a command button is unavailable, it means that there are no reports in the mailing list with that frequency.
Note:The report mailing facility is scheduled to run at 6 am (Reporter system time) every day.
For example, if you click Weekly, a list (shown in Figure 2-7) allows you to select a particular week, and you will receive all the weekly reports for the selected week that are currently checked in your mailing profile.
Figure 2-7 Send Mailing Now Dialog
To help you quickly locate the reports you work with most often, click the Favorites option. This facility allows you to create shortcuts to them.
To add a report to your Favorites section, right click the required report, and select Add to Favorites from the menu shown in Figure 2-6. To open the report, click the shortcut, or select View from the menu. To review or change the report´s current mailing frequency, select Mailing and the required option.
To delete a shortcut from your Favorites, right click it, and select Remove from Favorites from context menu the shown in Figure 2-8.
Figure 2-8 Favorites Context Menu
A report provides information about a particular date or period. Hence, it is necessary to specify the period for which you want information. Use the Calendar, shown in Figure 2-9, to specify the required date or period.
The Calendar contains the following parts:
The From and To sections provide a mechanism to specify the period for which you want information. This can be specified in terms of days, weeks, or months. The selected date(s) are shown in highlight. To de-select a date, simply click it again. Use the arrow keys at the bottom of the displayed columns to move backwards and forwards by months or years. You can click Clear day selection to quickly de-select all current selections. By default, the current date is selected. This can also be selected by clicking Today.
The Day tab allows you to specify the required period in terms of specific days. Note that if you select a single day, an additional panel allows you to restrict the report to specific hours within the selected day. You can click hours to select and de-select them, or click Office hours to immediately select 09 to 18. You can also quickly de-select any selected hours by clicking Clear hour selection.
The Week and Month tabs allow you to request information specified in terms of complete weeks or months.
The Compare offset menu allows you to compare data relating to one period with a comparable period. The use of this facility is described in Section 3.9, "Comparing Data Across Different Periods".
Note that while viewing a report, you are free to change your period selection at any time. Simply use the controls described above, and the report is immediately updated to reflect your new period selection.
If you open a report created with a report filter (described in Section 3.8.3, "Using Report Filters"), you are prompted to specify a filter for the report. For example, if the report concerns the daily values of defined KPIs, you are prompted for the KPI you want to view. This is shown in Figure 2-10.
Figure 2-10 Example Report Filter
Select the required value from the displayed list, and click View report. The report then opens.
Each report consists of a header, an Information screen, and a number of sections. These report parts are described in the following sections.
The report header contains general information about the report you are viewing. This includes the report's title, an indication of the reported metrics, and the date or period to which the report refers. An example is shown in Figure 2-11.
Figure 2-11 Example Report Header
The information screen provides a glossary of the terms used in the report. This is useful when you (or other report users) need an explanation of the metrics used in a report. An example is shown in Figure 2-12.
Figure 2-12 Example Report Glossary
Note you can also obtain a complete list of all terms used in reports, together with an explanation of them, by right-clicking within the glossary and selecting Full glossary.
Typically, a report contains several sections, and the number of available sections varies between reports. For example, a daily traffic report would contain two sections: one reporting traffic in terms of page views for the requested period, and the other reporting traffic in terms of bytes.
You can move between report sections by using the icons in the toolbar at the top of the report panel. In addition, they allow you to view the report's information screen, and switch between a graphic and table (value) view of the report's data. These icons are shown in Figure 2-13 and explained in Table 2-2.

In addition to the options shown in Figure 2-13, you can also use Browse option (shown in Figure 2-14) within each section's context menu to obtain a complete view of the data from which the report section is derived. This is described in Chapter 3, "Working With the Data Browser."
Figure 2-14 Report Section Menu
Each section within a report can be enabled or disabled. When disabled, a section is shown as collapsed, and must be enabled to make it visible again. An example of a disabled report section is shown in Figure 2-15.
Figure 2-15 Disabled Report Section
It is important to understand that this facility is used to control the content of the final (saved) report. For example, if the existing report that you are using as the basis for your new report contains sections that are not relevant to the new report, you can use this feature to remove them from the final report.
When using reports (and the Data Browser described in Chapter 3, "Working With the Data Browser"), a value list may sometimes contain the text "n/a" rather than a reported value. This is caused by no measured data being available. With line graphs and bar charts, this situation is indicated by a 0 (zero) value. This can arise in the following situations:
Averages for a selected period are always calculated on the basis of available data. Therefore, if you have requested information about an average value over the last 24 hours, but only 20 hours of data is available, the average would be calculated on the basis of 20 hours, and not 24 hours.
Period-based reports might contain automatically inserted "n/a" rows to ensure that the order and range between rows is consistent.
The use of filters may lead to data becoming unavailable for the active period. This will also lead to the insertion of "n/a" values. Note that for columns reporting totals, these values are interpreted as 0.
When a report is opened, it is shown in inline mode. This offers a high-level overview of the report's contents, and provides ready access to more detailed information available through the report. When browsing a report, this is the mode that you will use. However, when you want to customize reports, or create new ones, a more powerful editing mode is required: this is called print layout. An example is shown in Figure 2-16.
Figure 2-16 Example Report in Print Layout
This layout can be thought of as the report's template: it defines the report's structure and appearance. To view a report in print layout, select Preview from the taskbar at the top of the report panel (shown in Figure 2-13). The report's print layout is shown in a new window.
The first major difference you will notice between the two layouts is that, in print layout, all report sections (including the Information screen) are shown. This provides you with a complete overview of the report's contents. The other major difference is that the report's data is shown in both graphic and value (table) form.
You can use the context menu (shown in Figure 2-16) available under each section to modify the section to your requirements. It allows you to add descriptions to sections, enable and disable report sections (explained in Section 2.7, "Understanding Report Components"), remove sections from the report, and change the order in which sections appear in the report.
By default, data in report sections is shown in graphic form. However, sometimes you want to see "hard" numbers, rather than a graphic visualization. In addition, you may be planning to distribute the report to users whose printing or display facilities are limited. Therefore, you can use the Values and Graph icons in the toolbar at the top of the report panel (see Figure 2-13) to switch between the two views. An example of a value table is shown in Figure 2-17.
Figure 2-17 Example Value Table
Within a value list, you can select Limit value lists from the menu to specify the number of values that are shown in the selected section. The dialog shown in Figure 2-18 appears.
Figure 2-18 Limit Value List Dialog
If you specify a value of -1, all available values will be shown. It is recommended that you use this facility with care because of potentially very large value lists. The default is 100.
When a report is created using the compare facility (described in Section 3.9, "Comparing Data Across Different Periods"), an additional option, Compare, is available within the context menu of its main section.This allows you to specify the offset period to be used in the report. The available periods depend on the report's active time selection (day, week, or month).
In addition to the standard reports provided in the report library, you can also create new reports. To do so, you should use an existing report as the basis for your new report, and then modify it to meet your requirements. To save the new report, do the following:
When you are ready to create the new report, select Save as new from the File menu. The dialog shown in Figure 2-19 appears:
Figure 2-19 Save As New Report Dialog
Specify a title and brief description for the new report, and the category to which it should be saved. As mentioned earlier, if you save the report to a private category, it will only be available to you. The Options tab allows you to specify whether the glossary is included in the report. When ready, click Save.
Note that if the report you created is not immediately visible in the report library, click the Reports icon to refresh the displayed structure.
You can use the facilities described in Section 2.7, "Understanding Report Components" to modify a report. Note that it is not possible to modify standard reports (described in Section 2.1, "Introducing the Report Library"). Your ability to create new reports depends on your assigned user permissions. If you create a public report, it is editable by users with the necessary permissions, and is available on a read-only basis to all other users.
You can click the Download report as PDF icon or select Download report as PDF from the File menu to create an Adobe PDF file of the report's current contents. Note that sections that are disabled in print layout are not included in the generated PDF file.
Note:In order to view the generated PDF files, the Adobe Acrobat Reader must be installed. It is available for download from the Adobe Web site (
The report data within RUEI is available for export to host or client systems. For example, to a Business Intelligence (BI) system. The exported data is in Unicode (UTF-8) format. Access to the data is controlled through configuration of a system file. To use this facility, do the following:
Select System, and then Report data export. The window shown in Figure 2-20 appears.
Figure 2-20 Report Data Export Window
Select the required report from the list, and specify the period for which data should be available. A URL to the report data appears. Copy and send this to all relevant hosts.
Configure the access control file (described below) file to manage access to the
export.php file for the required users or systems. By default, access to the file is denied to any HTTP request.
By default, exported data is provided for a complete day, and in XML format. However, the arguments shown in Table 2-3 can also be specified.
Table 2-3 Additional Arguments for Report Data Export Facility
|Argument name
|Argument value
Export data in PDF format.
Export data in XLS format.
Export data in XML format (default).
Export data in comma-separated values.
Export data in tab-separated values.
Export data in Web Query Format.
Export data provided for a complete day (default).
Export data provided for a specific hour.
Export data provided for a specific 5-minute period.
Export data provided up to a specific day.
Export data provided up to a specific hour.
Export data provided up to a specific 5-minute period.
Footnote 1 The time range arguments are always in local time with respect to the Reporter system.
Footnote 2 The lowest granularity of the date format is a 5-minute period. Therefore, specifying a date of yyyymmdd1215 will return values for the period 1215-1219.
For example:
exports the selected report data in comma-separated values format for the period 25-27 October 2010.
This section presents a brief overview of how to secure access to the
export.php file and, therefore, manage access to the exported data. A complete description of Apache Web server access control file functionality is available at the following location:
By default, all access to the export file is blocked by the following entry in the
/etc/httpd/conf.d/uxinsight.conf file:
<Files export.php> Deny from all</Files>
To grant access to the export facility, the
Deny from all entry must be overridden with an .
htaccess file. By default, the .
htaccess file is not present, but can be created in the
/opt/ruei/gui directory. Below is an example for access to authenticated users only:
<Files export.php> Order deny,allow AuthUserFile /opt/ruei/.credentials AuthName "Exports" AuthType Digest # Uncomment line below in case of IE6 # BrowserMatch "MSIE" AuthDigestEnableQueryStringHack=On Require valid-user Allow from all </Files>
The third line contains a reference to a credential file. This files contains a list of user name and password combinations which the Apache Web server uses to validate each login attempt. It can be created using the
htdigest utility.
$ htdigest -c /opt/ruei/.credentials "Exports" <username>Adding password for <username> in realm Exports.New password: passwordRe-type new password: password

Species: African penguin (Spheniscus demersus)
Status: Endangered (EN)
Interesting Fact: The African penguin is the only penguin species to breed on the African continent.
The African penguin is also known as the 'jackass penguin' due to its loud, braying call. Feeding on fish such as anchovies and sardines, African penguins are strong swimmers and can reach speeds of 20km/hour in the water. The African penguin is known to breed on 24 islands in southern Africa. Pairs return to the same site each year to breed. Both adults take turns to incubate the eggs and, following hatching, adults will guard and regurgitate food to the chicks. After 30 days the chicks are left in crèches while the adults forage.
It is estimated that the current African penguin population is just 10% of what it was at the turn of the 20th Century. These penguins are currently threatened by depleted fish stocks due to overfishing and oil spills. All of the breeding areas of the African penguin in South Africa are protected as Nature Reserves, and work to rescue oiled African penguins has been shown to be successful. Work to conserve fish stocks is crucial to protect the African penguin from extinction.
Find out more about the African penguin on the World Association of Zoos and Aquariums website.

Who owns the land? Only the land knows. We mortals are passersby, and our lives are but a brief moment in the great span of time and space. We are born, we live out our lives, and most of us do the best we can with it, but the wind is forever, and the rivers flow forever to the sea, and all the seasons of the weathers will come and go after we are gone. But the Earth endures, the Earth is eternal" - Earl Hamner

Organizers of the Washington Boat Show have cancelled this year's event, and plan to hold it again Feb. 11-15, 2010.
The show had been scheduled for Feb. 19-22 at the Washington (D.C.) Convention Center.
"I just felt that the economy was such that it wasn't the time to hold the boat show in Washington, D.C., either for the boating public or the marine dealers," show producer Tom Stafford told Soundings Trade Only this morning.
Stafford has produced shows for more than 34 years and said this year, "the climate just didn't seem proper."
"I've seen ups and downs. I have faith in America and the boating public. I know it's going to rebound and probably by this summer, just not in time for a February show," he added.

House and Senate Pass H.R. 2419, the "Food, Conservation and Energy Act of 2008"
On May 14, 2008, the House of Representatives voted (318 to 106) to adopt the conference agreement resolving the differences between the House-passed and Senate-passed versions of H.R. 2419, the "Food, Conservation and Energy Act of 2008." On May 15, 2008, the Senate passed the conference agreement by a vote of 81 to 15. The bill will now be sent to the President for his approval.
The bill contains the following provisions of interest to SSA:
Exclusion of Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) Payments from the Self-Employment Contributions Act (SECA) Tax for Certain Individuals
• Would exclude CRP payments from self-employment income for purposes of the SECA tax in the case of individuals who are receiving Social Security retirement or disability benefits. CRP is a voluntary program for agricultural landowners, which provides landowners with annual payments in return for planting cropland or certain marginal pastureland in resource-conserving vegetative covers. The change would be effective with respect to CRP payments made after December 31, 2007.
Change in Optional Method of Reporting Net Earnings from Self-Employment (NESE)
• Would increase the amount of NESE that could be credited to individuals who file under the optional method of reporting to the amount of earnings needed for four quarters of coverage a year ($4,200 in 2008). Under present law, individuals who report under the optional method are credited with $1,600 a year, which would result in one quarter of coverage in 2008. Would be effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2007.
Transfer of Amounts from the General Fund to the Trust Funds
• Would provide for the transfer of funds by the Department of the Treasury from general revenues to the OASDI Trust Funds in order to ensure that the assets of the trust funds are not reduced as a result of the enactment of H.R. 2419. Would provide for transfers for fiscal years 2009 through 2017.
Reconciliation of Social Security Numbers of Individuals Receiving Payments Under Farm Commodity Programs
• Would require the Secretary of Agriculture, at least twice a year, to submit the Social Security numbers of all individuals who receive payments under farm commodity programs to the Social Security Administration in order to determine whether such individuals are alive. Would be effective no later than 180 days after enactment.

Omaha Police Chief Todd Schmaderer said the 38-year-old technician was shot once during a shootout between three officers and one suspect in a Wendy's restaurant.

Michigan Business Associations Favor Governor Snyder's State of State Speech Proposals To Continue Improving Business Climate
Jan 16, 2013, 07:54 ET
WARREN, Mich., Jan. 16, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Michigan Business and Professional Association (MBPA), along with its sister association the Michigan Food and Beverage Association (MFBA), fully support Governor Rick Snyder's new plans to continue making Michigan a friendlier place to do business. The two Associations have a combined membership of more than 20,000 small business members statewide.
"We are very pleased to see the Governor continue his efforts to strengthen the climate for small business within our state," said Jennifer Kluge, president of both Associations. "Today, Michigan is better positioned as a national economic force despite our continuing economic challenges; in many ways, we are actually leading the nation back out of the recession," she continued.
Kluge was particularly encouraged by the Governor's recommendations to make the Office of Financial and Insurance Regulation (OFIR) a full-fledged department to better assist Michigan businesses with implementation of the Affordable Care Act and with his call for special summits to focus on issues like talent and regional collaboration. "After hearing his enthusiastic support for these additional business friendly initiatives, we are especially looking forward to working with the administration on all business issues," Kluge concluded.
Based in Warren, Mich., the Michigan Business & Professional Association (www.michbusiness.org) is the largest business organization of small to medium-sized businesses in Michigan, representing more than 20,000 members who employ over 200,000 persons. Members include attorneys, physicians, architects, accountants, construction companies, banks, retailers, wholesalers, manufacturers and the like. Member businesses receive numerous benefits including free legal and financial consultations; discounted technology, automotive and office products; employee training and recruitment assistance; and competitive insurance rates. The MBPA is a sister association to the Michigan Food & Beverage Association (MFBA).

strong men are apt to sleep and she was lying awake trying to control her nerv s so that her restlessness might not disturb him presently she saw a man approach us stealthily us a cat and noiselessly extinguish thenight lamp horrible visions of robbery and bloodshed flitted through her mind what could she what should she do she controlled her desire to scream and decided on her course slowly she turned over in her bed and wearily speaking to her husband said oh dear the light has gone out and i feel so bad i wish you would get up and light it john john was not easily aroused and she had to speak to him again then his senses began to assert them selves and he slowly comprehended that something was wanted after the manner of the average man wak ing up from sleep he lighted the lamp and the woman who had kept her tense nerves quiet by her strong will was too weak to do it longer tlie inevitable scream came and her face betokened the hard experience of the last few moments she told her story about the man approaching and putting out the light and although it was apparent that the light was out the rest of the tale was thought to be the figment of a troubled dream but the hus

he put out the light and just as the woman had honed had fled when sho lan guidly and feebly said that the light had gone out und she wanted it re lighted the burglar evidently thought that she was

whether he will signature nor whhether he will send another special massage to congress on the subject urging the passage at this session of the separate house bills providing for free coal irou ore and barbed | wire sa far as the action of the senate is concerned it makes little difference what the president may do as enough republican senators have gone y way from washington to break a quorum and they left for that very purpose so as to make sure that the senate could not pass any other tariff bills secretary garlisle has written a letter to senator harris showing that the revenue to be derived from the tariff on sugar is absolutely necessary to avoid a deficit in the treasury for this fiscal year and stat|ng that if the bill for free sugar which passed the house with only 11 opposing votes is passed by the senate some other bill to raise the 53,000,000 which it is estimated will be collected on foreign sugar must also be passed that letter has made the made the passing of the tree engar bill out of the question even if he senate were in a position to do it notwithstand the fact that a majority of the senate favors free sugar secretary carlisle's letter contained the latest revises estimates of the revenues of the government under the senate tariff bill the to tal estimated receipts are 378,000 000 and the expenditures 363 000,000 an estimated surplus of 15,000,000 is entirely loo small to stand any further reduction the wisdom of the house in ac cepting the senate amendments to the tariff bill although it involved a : seeming surrender on the part of the \ part of the house is becoming more apparent every day it is now clear as day that there was a plot to pre vent any tariff legilation at all and that only the prompt action of the , house democratic caucus prevented ( its being carried out had senator hills resolution directed the senate conferees to report a disagreement to the senate been adopted before the house acted it would have been followed by a motion to postpone the whole matter until next decem ber and the motion would have been carried senhtor vest in a , speech defending the senate from th nerous charges made against it in connection with tariff legislati said men said the question was be tween the wilson bill aud the senate bill that statement was as false as the assertion of tariff reform it never can be a democrate as at present constituted the question was be tween the senate bill and the afckin lev law there the choice was to be made und every one conversant with the situation knew it fhat is as plain as it could be made senator walsh is a good democrat and a good editor hence his ad vice is good he says the den cratice pres should use its influi to create a just public opinion as to the real merits ot the senate bill when properly presented as the best measure of tariff reform attainable the conservative sentiment of i country will settle down to the i viction that very substantial ; ; gress has been made in the directi lof real tariff reform and freer trade

When did Christmas become such a hypochondriac?
Mere moments after the newly power-fueled Halloween season ends, wreaths and bayberry candles start elbowing severed limbs off store shelves while construction begins on the increasingly elaborate Santa's workshops that anchor every commercial plaza. And it's not just the U.S.; Western European capitals have been doubling down on yuletide, with skating rinks, holiday markets and light displays that can be seen from space.
Yet every season film and television churns with the message that someone Must Save Christmas.
In Hallmark's lovely if predictable "Northpole," the task of tinsel triage falls to an elf named...

Obama Rejects Another Offer Out-of-hand
[guest post by JD]
Obama rejected another offering from Speaker Boehner. Shockingly enough, they claimed it wasn't balanced enough, didn't attack the rich enough, and blah blah blah
The source said Obama sees the offer made on Friday by U.S. House Speaker John Boehner as a sign of progress, but simply believes it is not enough and there is much more to be worked out before Obama can reciprocate.
Anyone else get the impression their idea of bipartisan and compromise is "give me everything I want, and after that, we will think about your ideas, then reject them"?
Anyone else get the idea that they are looking forward to going over the proverbial cliff?

Millions need help in places that have fallen out of headlines, warns humanitarian chief Valerie Amos
The UN has allocated US$104 million from the Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF)to bolster aid operations in 13 of the world's most neglected and under-funded humanitarian crises.
"Millions of people need help around the world in places which have fallen out of the headlines," said Valerie Amos, UN Emergency Relief Coordinator. "These funds will help to save lives."
As the largest recipient, South Sudan will receive $20 million for aid to southerners returning from neighbouring Sudan. Since the end of October 2010, over 362,000 people have returned to South Sudan—the world's youngest country. Aid agencies in that country are preparing for a possible mass influx of up to 700,000 people who will have to return by 8 April, before they become illegal residents in Sudan.
Other recipients of CERF funds, selected based on their humanitarian needs and current funding levels, include Djibouti and Eritrea in the drought-stricken Horn of Africa, Central African Republic, Chad, Côte d'Ivoire, Republic of Congo, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, Nepal, Pakistan, the Philippines, Haiti and Syria.
"What this money does is provide an injection for those countries to help them get their programmes off the ground at the beginning of the year," said Steve O'Malley, Chief of the CERF secretariat.
In February, UN country teams in the 13 countries will determine specific use of the funding. Last year, an estimated 35 million people benefited from aid operations in 20 under-funded crises in countries such as Pakistan, Myanmar, Somalia, Niger and Colombia.
In 2011, Somalia received some $15 million for drought and famine relief. Pakistan received another $9.7 million for food, water, shelter and health care for thousands of families devastated by the floods. CERF's second round of allocations for underfunded crises is expected in July 2012.

The simplest way to end poverty: a model
- مشاركة
Poverty, a much talked topic, is a matter of great concern. We, human beings, can't let people die from poverty or hunger.Now the question is how can we end this? Or can we end poverty?
I believe, we can because nothing is impossible. But for this, we all have to take great initiatives and work together. The rich have to stand with the poor and the poor have to devote themselves to doing what it takes to get out of poverty. Let's have a close look at the following point:
All the countries of the world don't have the same resources or the same access to capital.Therefore, the rich will need to invest. The focus should be on agriculture, technology, environment and women's empowerment. Those areas where cheap labor is available can be used for production. For example, in Bangladesh labor is available at a cheap rate. We need to raise food production. Without agriculture, ending poverty would be impossible. So we should first focus on agriculture.
We should also invest in technology and train people to use it and become skilled workers. Technology is used in warfare. Governments spend billions of dollars to conduct wars. But what's the return on investment for waging war? Nothing of course. War only promotes death and destruction. What would have happened if these huge amounts of money were used for productive purposes? So why don't we stop making war?
Nothing is possible if you exclude women. Women's participation is crucial. Success depends on them mostly. A survey in China showed that women's participation increases the chances of success of a project.
Lastly and most importantly, we should take care of our environment and our planet.
If we all work together, we could probably end poverty. Let's start by cooperating with each other.

Horrible: Iranian Mother Of Two To Be Stoned To Death For Alleged Adultery Charges!
" A veteran Iranian human rights activist has warned that Sakineh Mohammadie Ashtiani, a mother of two, could be stoned to death at any moment under the terms of a death sentence handed down by Iranian authorities. Only an international campaign designed to pressure the regime in Tehran can save her life, according to Mina Ahadi, head of the International Committee Against Stoning and the Death Penalty. "Legally it's all over," Ahadi said Sunday. "It's a done deal. Sakineh can be stoned at any minute." "That is why we have decided to start a very broad, international public movement. Only that can help."" - CNN

Two Firms Face EPA Fines for Ocean Dumping Violations in Dredging Operations in Mass.
Release Date: 12/06/2010
Contact Information: Paula Ballentine, 617-918-1027
(Boston, Mass. – Dec. 6, 2010) – Two New England firms are the subject of EPA enforcement actions for improper disposal of dredged sediments in ocean waters during recent dredging projects in Massachusetts Bay harbor communities.
With end of summer boating season and the resumption of annual dredging operations throughout New England waters, companies who are contracted to perform dredging of harbors and other waterways are reminded to carefully follow all state and federal permit requirements for both the removal and disposal of dredged sediments.
EPA has pursued two recent enforcement actions under the Marine Protection, Research and Sanctuaries Act (MPRSA), commonly known as the Ocean Dumping Act. In both cases, EPA has coordinated closely with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (which is the actual permitting authority for dredging projects) and with offices of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, including Mass. Dept. of Environmental Protection (MA DEP) and Coastal Zone Management (CZM). The goal of the Ocean Dumping Act is to regulate the dumping of all types of materials into ocean waters and to prevent or strictly limit the dumping into ocean waters of any material which could adversely affect human health or welfare or the marine environment.
Cashman Dredging & Marine Contracting Co., LLC, based in Quincy, Mass., recently reached settlements with both EPA and with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts for alleged violations occurring during its dredging of the Porter and Crane Rivers in Danvers, Mass. Cashman was found by the state and federal agencies, including EPA, the Army Corps, MA DEP and CZM, of performing a "short dump" of sediment in Beverly Harbor, which was well outside of the prescribed ocean dumping zone authorized by the permit issued by the Army Corps of Engineers. Unauthorized dumping of dredged sediment within Beverly Harbor harmed the aquatic environment, which was documented by an EPA dive investigation of the dump area.
EPA also alleged that the company overdredged in some areas and took unauthorized sediments for disposal in the Massachusetts Bay Disposal Site. The state also brought a suit for illegal dredging and disposal violations under state law.
"When companies like Cashman perform work in the Commonwealth's sensitive wetlands and coastal ecosystems, they must comply with the permits issued by MassDEP for that work," said Massachusetts Attorney General Martha Coakley. "Here, Cashman's alleged failure to carefully conduct its dredging activities damaged important fisheries habitat in Beverly Harbor. The civil penalty and habitat improvement work required will alleviate the damage Cashman caused to the harbor seabed, and also help ensure that companies adhere to permit requirements during dredging projects."
Working cooperatively with the state and federal agencies, the company reached a settlement of both the federal and state actions. Under the terms of the settlement of the Federal case, Cashman will pay a penalty of $50,000, which includes performance of a "supplemental environmental project" favored by the federal and state natural resource agencies and the Town of Beverly Harbormaster. Specifically, the company will install in Beverly Harbor "low impact" moorings that will prevent turbidity and allow for eelgrass habitat recovery. This project will produce environmental and/or public health benefits beyond those required by law.
In a separate action, EPA has filed an administrative complaint against Burnham Associates, Inc., based in Salem, Mass. for alleged MPRSA violations associated with a dredging project in the Town of Hingham, Mass. EPA reviewed documentation that showed that on at least 28 occasions, Burnham dumped dredged sediments within the Massachusetts Bay Disposal Site that were in some cases up to one nautical mile from their prescribed target location.
These errors deprive regulators from: the ability to monitor the sediments once they have been disposed of and determine migration and erosion rates; the ability to monitor impacts on the marine environment; and, particularly in this case, to construct a boundary of a "containment cell" that could potentially limit the lateral spread of future dredged material. Burnham faces fines of up to the maximum allowed under the federal statute which is $70,000 for each disposal event.
"It is very important for companies that provide dredging services to carefully follow all of the permit requirements. This helps to protect our environment," said Curt Spalding, regional administrator of EPA's New England office.
The Massachusetts Bay Disposal Site is a circular area 2 nautical miles (nm) in diameter, located approximately 10 nm south-southeast of Eastern Point in Gloucester, 12 nm southeast from Gales Point in Manchester, Mass. and 18 nm from the entrance to Boston Harbor.

Grand Theft Auto IV Walkthrough
|Wrong Is Right (cont.)
|United Liberty Paper
From Oleg's place, the GPS will take you on a brief route to a new location on the aforementioned Tulsa Street. This will be a really brief ride. For the record, you should find yourself a small, fast car, because the upcoming chase is epic, and will take some time. Small cars don't have the greatest physical integrity, but without one, you're going to have a hard time zipping in and out of traffic and keeping up. Regardless, when you arrive at your destination, a friend of Oleg's (your target) will alert him that he is being watched. And just like that, he zips off in his car.
The upcoming pursuit is a long one. Save your ammunition -- firing at him incessantly isn't going to work. You need to see this chase through to the very end. The game will alert you on-screen if you're about to lose him, which is a sign to you to step on the gas and get your ass in gear. His travels over the bridge are especially annoying, and you'll understand why you wanted not only a fast car, but a small car for this chase. When you've finally tailed him successfully for several minutes, start bumping him and force him to crash. When his vehicle takes enough damage, he'll surrender, staying in his car and begging for mercy. Show him none. Point a gun of your choice at him and eliminate him. Then, the mission comes to an end.

SpaceX unveils new Falcon Heavy rocket - WORLD'S BIGGEST
Elon Musk moves towards dream of boots-on-Mars glory
So who should NASA go to for the new "super heavy" Mars rocket? Well, just maybe the guy with the most powerful rocket in the world right now
The heavy lifter would need to be on the order of the titanic - and titanically expensive - Saturn V launchers which carried men to the Moon in the long-ago Apollo programme. The Ares V design used recycled technology from Shuttle and Apollo, burning cryogenic hydrogen fuel. Its projected expense was a major reason for the axing of Constellation.
Today's 'Heavy' is one of the little ones in the middle: not to be confused with the probably upcoming Super Heavy.
Under Obama's post-Constellation plan NASA will select a new heavy lifter design in 2015, which will enable deep-space missions beyond the Earth-Moon system to be assembled. Announcing this roadmap last year, the president said:
In developing this new vehicle, we will not only look at revising or modifying older models; we want to look at new designs, new materials, new technologies that will transform not just where we can go but what we can do when we get there.
SpaceX says:
Please note that Falcon Heavy should not be confused with the super heavy lift rocket program being debated by the US Congress. That vehicle is authorized to carry between 70-130 metric tons to orbit. SpaceX agrees with the need to develop a vehicle of that class as the best way to conduct a large number of human missions to Mars.
Nonetheless it's well known that SpaceX doesn't intend to rest content with merely trumping the existing Soyuz and Delta IV Heavy. The Falcon Heavy is probably the ultimate that can be achieved using Merlin engines, but SpaceX has plans for a new and more powerful "Merlin 2" engine. Like the Merlin it would burn kerosene rather than difficult-to-handle, costly cryogenic hydrogen: as with the Merlin, this would lower the costs of rockets based on it.
A single Merlin 2 might at first be test-flown in a Falcon 9, rather as the original Merlin was initially tested in the single-engined Falcon 1. The new engine might also be used to enhance the Falcon Heavy.
But after such initial operations, clusters of Merlin 2s could be used to drive new and bigger rockets, just as clustered Merlins drive the 9 and the Heavy. A Merlin 2 version of today's Heavy, using three side-by-side lower stage nine-engine cores, would be at the upper end of the NASA super-heavy-lift requirement - indeed, if it exceeded initial projections as much as the Heavy seems likely to (the Heavy was originally predicted to carry only 30+ tonnes, not 50+) it would be much more powerful than officially required, easily eclipsing the Saturn Vs of yesteryear.
And if Musk can keep his costs down as well as he is doing so far, the Falcon X Heavy - or whatever it might turn out to be called - would also be much, much cheaper than rival super-heavies offered by the established US rocket industry which makes the likes of the Delta IV Heavy and the Shuttle. It would surely be much cheaper than the Saturn V.
It took the Space Race and former President John F Kennedy's massive personal charisma to push through enough funding for Saturn V and Apollo: that funding collapsed halfway through the Moon landings and ever since, NASA has struggled to achieve anything beyond low Earth orbit.
But if Musk can stay on track, providing lift at a sixth of his competitors' prices and scaling up all the time, even the NASA budget obtainable by some less iconic future president might genuinely suffice for a future kerosene-fuelled Apollo programme, one able to finally put a manned Mars mission - and many other exciting projects - into space at last.
Still, Musk and SpaceX will have a tough political fight on their hands when the super-heavy rocket call gets made in 2015: rocket operations on the SpaceX model mean lost jobs in vast numbers not only at Lockheed, Boeing et al but also at NASA itself - observers will have noted that the controllers of the most recent Falcon launch were not NASA employees but SpaceX ones.
Musk will need at least one successful Falcon Heavy launch under his belt if he's going to overcome the vast political clout of the established rocket industry in four years' time. But if he's in that position - operator of the most powerful flight tested launch rocket in the world, bar none - it will be very hard for anyone to say that SpaceX isn't a serious (or indeed, the most serious) contender for the job.
It looks set to be a dramatic few years ahead on the space beat. ®
