Q: Compile C into MIPS I am trying to compile a file of C code into mips assembly. My OS is suse linux and I already have gcc and cross-mips-binutils installed - I simply don't know what commands to use to cross-compile into mips.
I already used:
gcc -S text.c -o text.s
and it compiled fine - just not into mips.
I also looked through other posts here on stack overflow like: How to cross-compile for MIPS? but either they are not helpful or like this one, the helpful links don't work anymore.
I would appreciate any help! Thanks :)

A: cross-mips-binutils is not sufficient for compilation, only linking, creating archives, etc.  You need cross-mips-gcc in order to generate MIPS assembly.

Bill Allen is helping bring 3D-printed hearing aids to those in need through 3dp4me.org
Growing up in rural Illinois, Bill Allen said his passion for music allowed him "a whole world of opportunities."
Allen, a Sterling, Illinois, native would graduate from Millikin University in Decatur with a degree in jazz and classical guitar performance. And he would use those skills in a variety of positions, including his current role as an Irvine, California-based Project Manager with the Burwood Group.
"If music was not available, I'm not sure what path I would have taken," said Allen, 46. "For me, music was one of the keys that drove me to seek a post-high school education coming from a very small town. That type of training has allowed me to work with groups and be creative with them in a way where I can positively interact with others."
His latest challenge is as volunteer Chief Operations Officer with 3dp4me.org, a nonprofit US-based technology startup. Allen, who has an MBA from Loyola University Chicago, spends as many as 15 volunteer hours a week with 3dp4me.org, which is working to create a platform to allow 3D printing of custom ear molds for hearing aids to benefit refugees and people in the Middle East who do not have easy access to the technology or cannot afford the services.
Maher is one of five children, the only one deaf. He received a hearing aid from Holy Land Institute for the Deaf (HLID) in Jordan. Image courtesy of 3dp4me.org.
Allen recently spearheaded a $100,000 fundraiser for 3dp4me.org. As of mid-January, Allen's efforts have helped raise almost $10,000.
With 3dp4me.org, Allen spends early morning and late evening hours – Amman is 10 hours ahead of Southern California – on conference calls and other communication methods with various tasks, including coordinating financial requirements, accounts, documents and working with vendors.
"I try to handle as much of the back office tasks as possible – so the president and board can focus on the mission," Allen said.
"Along with bringing a wealth of practical knowledge to our strategic planning team, Bill has brought a passion and commitment to the 3dp4me culture, allowing us to build a strong foundation for future growth, said Jason Szolomayer, founder and president of 3dp4me.org. "I am deeply grateful for the time, energy, and expertise Bill has invested in our organization and I am proud he is part of our team."
3dp4me.org has built a partnership with the Holy Land Institute for the Deaf (HLID) in Jordan. If enough funds are raised, a center would be built at HLID, which "seeks to prepare and enable deaf, hard-of-hearing and deaf-blind children, as well as people with other sensory and physical disabilities, for the inclusion and participation in their families and communities in a meaningful way, and to make their valuable contribution to civic society in Jordan," according to 3dp4me.org. The project has several objectives, including providing 12,000 hearing aids and enabling children who are hard-of-hearing to enroll in mainstream education.
"The best part of this has been expanding my world view and realizing that that poverty and being able to hear are common human problems, and I hope to provide some amount of support," Allen said.

How to present a human protagonist from a narrator who does not know what a human is?
My protagonist is an average human as we know it in a world populated by different animal-like species. The narrator (different character) is a member of a species that resemble polar bears. As far as the characters (including the narrator and MC) are aware, the MC is the only/first human to have ever existed. Hence the word "human" does not even exist: no one has ever seen anything like him before. The problem is, if the narrator has never seen a human before and does not know what a human is, how would he describe the human MC?
What I have written is simply the narrator pointing out all the differences between the MC and the people of that region:
He was all angles and corners where the rest of us were curved. Even Nuktuk, the runt from a few miles seaward, towered a foot taller than him on his toes. His claws were frail, his canines diminutive, and he had to wrap a length of fur around his head to avoid freezing his oversized ears off. Not to mention his blubber — if it could even be called that — which was so lightly packed that when he shed all those pelts and layers his belly barely bulged at all.
I tried to make it clear that the narrator's comments don't make sense in a human context (claws, blubber, etc) to edge the reader in the direction of thinking, "er, wait, isn't he just normal looking??" But the comments I received said that it wasn't clear to them what species he was.
So my question is: does anyone have any ideas on how to clarify that a character is human without using the word "human"?

If the narrator is a different species, I assume that the narrator and the MC does not share a common language. If so, the challenge of figuring out that the MC is "Human" is even greater, since the word 'human' would not be understood. Perhaps your narrator could have a "You Tarzan, me Jane"-like moment though. Interesting challenge, and it seems you're on the right path! – storbror Jun 8 '17 at 7:21
@storbror It's a fantasy novel so I'm taking a few liberties and letting everyone use the same language. I might fill that hole later, but not now! – sudowoodo Jun 8 '17 at 8:36
Ah.. Well, I guess that makes it a bit more tricky! Imagine if a dog walked around and behaved like "humans" do.. Maybe that can help describe the human from another animals point of view. That with the other advice about descriptions of its physical form should get you a long if not all the way. – storbror Jun 8 '17 at 11:57
There are two levels of complexity, in my opinion.
The first one is linguistical and philosophical. That means, how could someone describe something without any points of references? What is an arm to someone without arms? What does it mean "to walk"? The cognitive processes are different if the body is different, so probably you need to invent a new language to express the different view world of this different being. This is a complex but fascinating issue.
The second issue is simpler. Just find out what the two beings (man and animal) have in common, and describe the differences: my thick bear fur, and his thin human hair; my crouched heavy gait and his standing slim one; my sharp teeth and his little mouth, and so on.
Examples of this are found in Cujo by Stephen King, which has some parts written with the PoV of the dog. Also read Sentinel by F. Brown, a short sci-fi which plays with the twist between the human and alien point of view.

I get cussed for my short dismissive answers but it should be some sort of qualification for a fiction writer to possess an imagination.
You need to primarily note the differences between you (a polar bear) and this new creature. Beyond that you need to attempt to categorise this creature in the context of other creatures you have seen. You may also wish to theorise as to why the creature looked and behaved the way it did.
I observed a creature. On first observation it possessed smooth, lizard like skin but it had no tail so it was not a lizard. Al large amphibian perhaps? No. It strayed far from water and its movements were mammal-like - one step at a time as opposed to a two-at-a-time hopping motion. When I braved to get closer I clearly see it was a mammal. Possibly it's fur had been decimated by disease as it did no cover the entire body as should. The creature existed in a perpetual state of anger, always up on its hind-legs ready to fight. This single creature appeared puny and weak, and as a meal could provide very little sustenance. It seemed intelligent, perhaps we could capture and tame this one - teach it to provide some manner of of function or service. Was this specimen male or female, and if we found another would they breed in captivity?
SurtseySurtsey
As I wrote in the question, I had originally done what is in your first suggestion and was told by my readers that it wasn't clear. So I asked the question to help me clarify since it wasn't obvious to me how to do so. Sometimes we just need a fresh pair of eyes, right? I don't think it's worth dismissing. Definitely no need to be rude about it. Nice answer, aside from that. – sudowoodo Jun 8 '17 at 14:58

Press Release -- January 23rd, 2012
Source: Ericsson
ST-Ericsson reports fourth quarter 2011 financial results
Net sales $409 million
Adjusted operating loss[1] $207 million
Key priorities for 2012: enhanced focus on execution and a clear roadmap to sustainable profitability
Geneva, Switzerland, January 23, 2012 - ST-Ericsson, a joint venture of STMicroelectronics (NYSE:STM) and Ericsson (NASDAQ:ERIC, news, filings), reported financial results for the fourth fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2011.
Sales in the fourth quarter, excluding IP licensing to a third party, grew 1.3% over prior quarter. The operating loss reported for the fourth quarter was higher than the previous quarter.
Didier Lamouche, President and CEO, commented: "As the recently appointed CEO of ST-Ericsson, my aim, and that of the entire organization, will be to ensure that we meet all of our stakeholders' expectations. As we ramp up our new product portfolio and build a strong roadmap towards sustainable profitability, our focus is to effectively deliver on timely execution of our strategic programs and continue to proliferate design wins.
From a financial perspective, it is clear that both sales and operating results will continue to be challenging over the coming quarters, due to the reduction in the short term of new product sales with one of our largest customers. That is why our immediate priority is to build a strong roadmap to profitability based on enhancing execution, delivering in volume our leading products and lowering the break-even point."

Additional financial information
The net financial position[2]at the end of the fourth quarter was negative $798 million. The sequential decrease was mainly a consequence of the operating loss, partially mitigated by the reduction of working capital. Our shareholders will continue to support funding our transitional financial needs.
During the fourth quarter the company sold trade receivables without recourse, of which $144 million were outstanding at the end of the quarter, representing a sequential decline of $18 million.
Inventory decreased by $58 million reaching $223 million at the end of the fourth quarter.
For the first quarter 2012, ST-Ericsson expects a very significant sequential decline in net sales, resulting from a combination of higher inventory at some of our customers, further weakening of legacy product sales, the effect of first quarter seasonality as well as the reduction, in the short term, of new product sales with one of our largest customers.
Highlights - products, technology and wins announced in fourth quarter 2011

When uploading files with invalid timestamps, Acrosync aborts the job right after receiving message mentioned in topic title.
Time value of path/to/my/file truncated on receiver.
Files on client come from automatically extracted archives, so it's not really possible to ensure that there are no invalid timestamps on client side.
Would it be possible to adjust Acrosync behavior, so that it treats this message as a warning and doesn't terminate the job?
Boring technical details, in case they are relevant: client is "Acrosync for windows 1.7 build 600", client filesystem is NTFS. Server is a NAS box on LAN running Debian 9.5 (stretch), filesystem is EXT4. Using rsync protocol without SSH.

Leather – which is the most traditional outer material. There are several types of leather materials which are used in manufacturing a bird hunting boot: boar hide, cowhide, kangaroo, and others as well. The most popular would be the cowhide because it is very strong and it is less expensive in comparison with other leathers.
Fabric – many of the modern boots are made with full fabric outers or combinations. These kinds of fabrics include manmade polymers and nylons and even natural fibers. Cotton is the most popular natural fabric but it is rarely used in high-quality hunting boots due to the fact that it absorbs water which leads to rot and mildew. By far the best fabric for bird hunting boots is nylon which comes at a good value for its costs and is very tough. Cordura is one of the most popular nylon fabrics which comes in a rich variety of thicknesses.
Rubber – very efficient in turning water but the rubber bootstrap and hold body moisture and most likely, the hunter's feet will get wet from their own perspiration. Another disadvantage would be that the rubber is susceptible to tearing from sharp objects.
When deciding just the right amount of insulation for the boots, the following guidelines apply to the vast majority of the hunters. For cold conditions and periods of inactivity, hunters usually wear boots that have felt liners or 1000 grams of Thinsulate. For temperate climates, hunters use boots that have 400 grams of Thinsulate. For temperate to warm climates, boots with 200 grams of Thinsulate are recommended.
Waterproofness is achieved by using (in the construction of the boot) waterproof leather which incorporates a waterproof membrane bootie. The waterproof leather is treated with silicon which will cause the fibers to swell up and lock out the water. These kinds of boots allow foot moisture to pass from inside to outside but not as well as boots that have waterproof membrane booties.
Eyelets – least expensive, strongest lacing system but they require the longest amount of time for lacing/unlacing.
D-Rings – they offer speed in lacing/unlacing but they don't hold tension on laces once they are tightened.
Hooks – they offer the fastest lacing system but are very insecure.
Before purchasing a new pair of bird hunting boots you must ask yourself the following questions: Will I wear them when walking or stand hunting? Will the ground in which I will be hunting be rocky, sandy or muddy? Which type of terrain am I planning to hunt on: flat or hilly? Which is the best lacing system?
So as you can see there are many aspects that a future buyer must take into consideration but with a little research, all these questions can get an answer.
We will now offer you a small list of upland hunting boots that are a huge hit on the market and have proven their efficiency since they were first launched on the market.
Brittany Upland Boots deliver the superior performance required to withstand even the most demanding upland hunting outings, thanks to innovative crafting that blends the functional lines of a traditional upland boot with high-tech comfort. They are available in a 10″ version with 200-gram Thinsulate insulation as well as a new 7″ uninsulated model designed for those warm days early in the season. The full-grain leather and Cordura nylon uppers ensure lasting reliability while keeping weight to a minimum.
Built for optimum comfort and upland performance, these Cordura nylon, and waterproof nubuck leather moc-toe boots are ready to tackle the toughest scrublands and densest grasslands. The oiled sharkskin toe cap exhibits the incredible abrasion resistance needed to take the brunt of the punishment upland terrain can dish out. A GORE-TEX lining promotes superior breathability while forming an impervious seal to water.
The designers at Rocky have taken their popular Outback hunting boots to a higher performance level with an all-new design and an improved outsole. All models have a full sock lining of 100% waterproof, breathable GORE-TEX to ensure your feet stay comfortable and dry. A removable, washable footbed soaks up shock with every step, while the lining is made of a moisture-wicking three-bar knit fabric. Each style has padded collars and gusseted tongues.
Comfortable, durable, lightweight, waterproof. Those words say it all about Cabela's Kangaroo Upland™ Bird Boots. The uppers are supple, super-light kangaroo leather, so you can walk all day with less leg and foot fatigue. The urethane-coated, cowhide scuff tip protects the toe area from the scrapes and abrasions encountered while hunting. They are also fully lined with a GORE-TEX membrane for 100% waterproof yet breathable protection.
For hunting in milder climates, you want an uninsulated boot that's comfortable enough to wear all day and durable enough to handle the varied terrain. That's what Danner has achieved with their Sharptail Hunting Boots. Available in four designs – a 5″ Chukka, an 8″ Sharptail, a 10″ Covey, and a 17″ Covey Snake Boot. Each of these boots features a 100% waterproof GORE-TEX liner and full-grain leather and fabric uppers.


This unique masterpiece made by a craftsman from a small Lomonosov village in the Arkhangelsk region is a bright example of Russian folk art called bone carving.
The work is very delicate. This is not resin or some other kind of artificial material. The item is made manually of natural walrus and mammoth bone and is a brilliant example of handicraft.
Meet the author of the work.
Her husband has eye problems and prefers working with larger items like these chess pieces in the picture.
Many craftsmen from the village own small workshops where they keep working every day.
Others prefer to be hired by somebody. They use elk antlers and cow bones in their work.
Meanwhile, the village is facing repairs getting ready to celebrate its 300th anniversary.
The governor is controlling the process of the bone-carving factory construction.
Some other pictures of rural life.
After looking at the calendar one can understand that life in the village stopped 20 years ago.
How do you like the bananas, by the way?
They're not spoiled- they're ripe, as I used to be told when I was a youngster.
Frugal parents are a blessing in the number of stories you can tell when you're older.
hmm where do they take mammoths bones from? can you just found it in the ground and take to home in that place in Russia?

State boys soccer: Record-setting rout sends Prairie to Division 4 title match WITH VIDEO
Prairie 8, Lake Mills 0
Mark Feldmann
Prairie's Daniel Bravo, right, tries to redirect a corner kick into the goal as teammate Max Yde watches during the Hawks' 8-0 win over Lake Mills in a WIAA Division 4 semifinal match Thursday at Uihlein Soccer Park in Milwaukee.
GREGORY SHAVER, For The Journal Times
MILWAUKEE — It started slowly, as one would expect on a 26-degree Thursday morning, when workers were shoveling ice from the surface of Uihlein Soccer Park.
Once play started, the ball was skipping every which way as shivering players tried to adjust to conditions more typical of January.
By the time it was over, The Prairie School boys soccer team had rolled to an 8-0 victory over Lake Mills in a WIAA Division 4 state semifinal after erupting for six second-half goals. Senior midfielder Luis Garduno set a all-division state record with four assists and senior forward Max Yde tied a Division 4 record with three goals.
The eight goals scored by Prairie—two in the first half, six in the second—is the most ever scored in a state tournament match regardless of division. The Division 4 record had been six, set by Prairie in 2014 against Sturgeon Bay.
Prairie (17-1-5) will for try its third state championship since 2014 Saturday when it plays Sturgeon Bay (17-4-1) at 11 a.m. The Clippers advanced with a 5-1 victory over Northland Pines in the other semifinal.
But it didn't come easily at first for Prairie, which struggled offensively in two sectional games and led just 2-0 at halftime against underdog Lake Mills. The Hawks had 13 shots in the first half, but scored only on an own goal at 10:28 and Yde's shot at 12:51.
Was there a correlation between that slow start and the unseasonably frigid weather? Prairie coach Corey Oakland thought so.
"I can't remember playing on an icy field—I mean, it was crazy," he said. "When we came out here at 9 o'clock (Thursday) morning, I had never seen anything like this as far as where there were plows and shovels all over.
"And it affected the first 20 or 30 minutes of the game. It was really rough. The ball was skipping all over. I mean, there was ice out there! I'm not making excuses for early on, but once the field thawed, all of a sudden we started scoring goals and moving a lot better."
It started with Garduno, the kind of player who does things that can't be taught. His record-setting performance came within a 12-minute stretch of the second half, when he set up two goals by leading scorer Jason Frosch and one each by Cameron McPhee and Yde.
Considering Garduno entered the match with 24 assists—12 more than any of his teammates—setting up teammates is what he does best. But he took it to another level in Prairie's most important game of the season so far.
"It was good to finally get control of the ball," he said. "In the the past few games, I was struggling a little bit more with keeping the ball under my feet and dribbling. It was usually getting stuck under my feet.
Garduno
"This game, I was able to get back into my game. It was good to be able to find my teammates and get some assists."
For Yde, what Garduno provides is a gift.
"He's got a good right foot and a good left foot," Yde said. "And he's just so unselfish. He sees so many things that other people don't see. Like, I'll be watching the tape and I can't even pick out what he's seen, but he's just finding those through balls, finding success and getting a lot of assists."
Frosch, who returned Thursday after sitting out five games with an injury, also benefited from Garduno's vision.
"He just knows the game in a different way than most people," Frosch said. "He controls the midfield, he can dribble, he can pass, he can shoot even. He's just a dual threat."
As late as the 59:54 mark, Prairie was still hanging on to a 2-0 lead. That's when Caden Holum scored on a rebound from a free kick by Frosch. And then the flood gates opened behind the passing prowess of Garduno.
While the field conditions had improved in the second half, another factor was an observation Oakland passed onto his players.
"We certainly have a lot of offensive firepower," Oakland said. "The thing the was frustrating was we had 12 shots (actually 13) at halftime and we had a number of really good looks at goal that we missed.
"That was certainly a point of emphasis at halftime as in, 'Come on, boys. We've got these chances we built up. We can't be wasting those.' So the second half, we had fewer shots (actually 13 again), but put way more goals in. I think it was more about efficiency. We talked about that all year. Whatever the sport is, if you're creating chances but you aren't closing the deal, you're having problems."
Yde was among those who tuned into his coach's message. At 71:07, he took a cross from Tommy Bode and scored from two yards. Just over two minutes later, he took a pass from Garduno and scored from 10 yards.
It was Yde's second hat trick of the season—he also had one in a 7-0 victory over Greendale Martin Luther—and the third of his varsity career. With 18 goals, he ranks second on Prairie to Frosch (23) and Nicholas Hawkins (20).
"My teammates were really finding me with through balls," Yde said. "Tommy set me up perfectly, Jason found me on the first one off a corner and we were just able to get those combination plays and I was able to get nice, easier shots on goal."
Prairie's Luis Garduno, right, dribbles during the Hawks' 8-0 victory in a WIAA Division 4 semifinal match Nov. 7 at Uihlein Soccer Park in Milwaukee. The senior has been voted the All-Racine County Player of the Year.
Meanwhile, Prairie was minimizing the impact of Lake Mills junior forward John Wilke, who entered the match with 32 goals—22 more than anyone else on the L-Cats. Wilke was held to five shots, four of which were on goal.
None came in the second half, when Prairie was breaking open the game.
"They did a great job," Lake Mills coach Tony Cooke said. "John's an awesome player. He's like 10th in the state in points and everybody knows that, so he's always marked.
"And if we're not running on all cylinders as a team, we can't get John to be where he needs to be to do what he does. If they have us on our heels, we can't really use John to our advantage."
Prairie's Jason Frosch makes a run towards the goal as Lake Mills' Camben Schultz tries to defend during the Hawks' 8-0 win in a WIAA Division 4 semifinal match Thursday at Uihlein Soccer Park in Milwaukee.
And now Prairie must defeat Sturgeon Bay, which it edged 1-0 in the 2017 championship game to return to the top. Cooke expects the Hawks to be force Saturday morning.
"They're definitely really well coached, they pass the ball really well—they got some really nice slotted ball shots on us—they had us on our heels from the start and we tip our hats to them.
"They're a really well-run machine."

About Jerry Spinelli
Growing up, Jerry Spinelli was really serious about baseball. He played for the Green Sox Little League team in his hometown of Norristown, Pennsylvania, and dreamed of one day playing for the major leagues, preferably as shortstop for the New York Yankees.
One night during high school, Spinelli watched the football team win an exciting game against one of the best teams in the country. While everyone else rode about town tooting horns in celebration, Spinelli went home and wrote "Goal to Go," a poem about the game's defining moment, a goal-line stand. His father submitted the poem to the Norristown Times-Herald and it was featured in the middle of the sports page a few days later. He then traded in his baseball bat for a pencil, because he knew that he wanted to become a writer.
After graduating from Gettysburg College with an English degree, Spinelli worked full time as a magazine editor. Every day on his lunch hour, he would close his office door and craft novels on yellow magazine copy paper. He wrote four adult novels in 12 years of lunchtime writing, but none of these were accepted for publication. When he submitted a fifth novel about a 13-year-old boy, adult publishers once again rejected his work, but children's publishers embraced it. Spinelli feels that he accidentally became an author of children's books.
Spinelli's hilarious books entertain both children and young adults. Readers see his life in his autobiography Knots in My Yo-Yo String, as well as in his fiction. Crash came out of his desire to include the beloved Penn Relays of his home state of Pennsylvania in a book, while Maniac Magee is set in a fictional town based on his own hometown.
When asked if he does research for his writing, Spinelli says: "The answer is yes and no. No, in the sense that I seldom plow through books at the library to gather material. Yes, in the sense that the first 15 years of my life turned out to be one big research project. I thought I was simply growing up in Norristown, Pennsylvania; looking back now I can see that I was also gathering material that would one day find its way into my books."
On inspiration, the author says: "Ideas come from ordinary, everyday life. And from imagination. And from feelings. And from memories. Memories of dust in my sneakers and humming whitewalls down a hill called Monkey."
Spinelli lives with his wife and fellow writer, Eileen, in West Chester, Pennsylvania. While they write in separate rooms of the house, the couple edits and celebrates one another's work. Their six children have given Jerry Spinelli a plethora of clever material for his writing.

Beloved Newbery Medalist Jerry Spinelli, author of Maniac Magee and Wringer, addresses issues of identity, belonging, family, and bullying in this humorous and heartfelt novel about twins.
Jake and Lily are twins. Despite their slightly different interests and temperaments, they feel exactly the same—like two halves of one person. But the year they turn eleven, everything changes. Their parents announce it's time for separate bedrooms. Jake starts hanging out with a pack of boys on the block. And Lily is devastated, not to mention angry. Who is she without Jake? And as her brother falls under the influence of the neighborhood bully, he also must ask himself—who is the real Jake?
This is an often funny, poignant, and profound story of growing up, growing apart, and the difficult process of figuring out who you really are.

Loser 13 Oct, 2009
From renowned Newbery-winning author Jerry Spinelli comes a powerful story about how not fitting in just might lead to an incredible life. This classic book is perfect for fans of Gordon Korman and Carl Hiaasen.

Third Grade Angels 1 Sep, 2012
by Jerry Spinelli, Jennifer A. Bell
The long-awaited prequel to the bestseller FOURTH GRADE RATS
George, aka "Suds," has just entered third grade, and he's heard the rhyme about "first grade babies/second grade cats/third grade angels/fourth grade rats," but what does this mean for his school year? It means that his teacher, Mrs. Simms, will hold a competition every month to see which student deserves to be awarded "the halo" - which student is best-behaved, kindest to others, and, in short, perfect. Suds is determined to be the first to earn the halo, but he's finding the challenge of always being good to be more stressful than he had anticipated. Does he have to be good even outside of school? (Does he have to be nice to his annoying little sister?) And if Mrs. Simms doesn't actually see him doing a good deed, does it even count?
A warm, funny return to elementary school from master storyteller Spinelli.

Hokey Pokey 8 Jan, 2013
Welcome to Hokey Pokey. A place and a time, when childhood is at its best: games to play, bikes to ride, experiences to be had. There are no adults in Hokey Pokey, just kids, and the laws governing Hokey Pokey are simple and finite. But when one of the biggest kids, Jack, has his beloved bike stolen—and by a girl, no less—his entire world, and the world of Hokey Pokey, turns to chaos. Without his bike, Jack feels like everything has started to go wrong. He feels different, not like himself, and he knows something is about to change. And even more troubling he alone hears a faint train whistle. But that's impossible: every kid knows there no trains in Hokey Pokey, only tracks.
Master storyteller Jerry Spinelli has written a dizzingly inventive fable of growing up and letting go, of leaving childhood and its imagination play behind for the more dazzling adventures of adolescence, and of learning to accept not only the sunny part of day, but the unwelcome arrival of night, as well.

Eggs 5 May, 2011

Nottingham Forest have confirmed Mark Warburton as the club's new first-team manager.

The pair have signed two-and-a-half-year contracts with The Reds.
Warburton's first match in charge will be the East Midlands derby at The City Ground on Saturday.


The Social Science Research Council has launched "To Secure Knowledge," a task force that is born from the organization's essential obligations to scholarship, the infrastructure of social research, standards of inquiry and evidence, and the role rigorous understanding plays in public affairs.
First is the scope, integrity, and accessibility of the federal statistical system. Vital data is presently generated by more than one-hundred federal agencies, but especially by thirteen whose primary mission is that of generating official statistics—Bureau of Economic Analysis; Bureau of Justice Statistics; Bureau of Labor Statistics; Bureau of Transportation Statistics; Census Bureau; Economic Research Service; Energy Information Administration; National Agricultural Statistics Service; National Center for Education Statistics; National Center for Health Statistics; National Center for Science and Engineering Statistics; Office of Research, Evaluation and Statistics (SSA); and Statistics of Income (IRS)—as well as NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Various challenges, including potentially severe budgetary constraints, are putting pressure on this essential basis of scholarly and policy knowledge.
Second is a set of concerns about the organizational arrangements for social research and policy knowledge. There is a wide range of essential institutions in both public and civil life that undergird the quest, across subjects and methods, for systematic understanding of human phenomena. These include our uncommonly robust network of colleges and universities, national endowments for the arts and humanities, the National Science Foundation, and the National Institutes of Health, among many others. Without simply embracing the status quo, the task force will seek to understand how best to secure the institutional conditions for the creation, dissemination, and utilization of social knowledge.
Third is the networks, patterns of interaction, and mobility of scholars. A great strength of the knowledge system of the United States has been its confident openness; characterized not only by a transparency of information and procedures, but by a global orientation that understands how the search for knowledge cannot be contained within any single country. For many decades, this approach has valued human exchanges, including the secure personal movement of scholars, and a quest for unimpeded collaboration. How can these valued practices be secured?
Fourth is the set of norms, conventions, and patterns of behavior that long have characterized the ways in which the knowledge community has fashioned and governed its criteria for assessing careers and scholarly contributions, including systems of peer review. In a world increasingly characterized by liquid, instant, and uncurated information, largely autonomous, time-consuming, and demanding standard setting criteria and institutions within the scholarly world face growing skepticism. Which principles and which activities are most fundamental, and how, while open to adjustment, should they best be guarded, even as they are made more transparent?
Fifth is changes to national policy that stress increased accountability for public funding, often linked to near term contributions of knowledge to national security and economic growth. This pressure affects the social sciences in ways that differ from the physical and health sciences, and thus requires careful attention to how responsibility is framed, the criteria by which various types of inquiry are judged, and how a balance between autonomy and accountability is to be achieved. "To Secure Knowledge: A Task Force of the Social Science Research Council" began its work in spring 2017 and will complete it in early 2018.


WHERE HANDS TOUCH is a coming of age story set in the most brutal of times. Germany 1944: 15-year old Leyna (Amandla Stenberg), daughter of a white German mother and a black African father meets Lutz (George MacKay), a member of the Hitler Youth - compulsory for all Aryan boys since 1936. They are bound by the realization of the horrors being committed against the Jews, as Leyna tries to avoid the fate of black Germans at the time. Can she find an ally in Lutz, himself battling the fate laid before him?


Anritsu Corporation (President Hirokazu Hashimoto) has released its Simple Conformance Test System ME7800L for easy and cost-effective RF and protocol conformance tests of 3GPP-compliant LTE mobile terminals.
The new ME7800L test system supports conformance testing to confirm that LTE mobile terminals can connect with the world's mobile networks.
It is based on Anritsu's popular ME7873LA and ME7834LA with proven track records in full RF and protocol conformance testing, respectively, but incorporates only basic functions and performance in one simple package.
LTE is a 4G mobile communications standard in use by smartphones in the world's developed countries. It is also expected to see widespread deployment in other countries currently using the legacy 2G GSM mobile standard, which will create increasing demand for a cost-effective test system incorporating the required key test functions.
With this ME7800L launch, Anritsu expects to maintain its leading role as the main player in meeting customers' requirements for deployment of LTE mobile systems with better communications quality.
Operators in Europe, North America, and Far East Asia have taken the lead in rolling-out LTE mobile services, and terminal certification in Europe and N. America is handled by GCF and PTCRB, respectively. To support terminal certification, Anritsu already markets the LTE-Advanced RF Conformance Test System ME7873LA for RF tests, and the LTE-Advanced Mobile Terminal Test Platform ME7834LA for protocol tests. Since both these systems are focused on early support for conformance tests for advanced technologies such as LTE-A now being deployed in more advanced economies, they combine a mix of expensive hardware and software that may not meet some customers' needs. Additionally, since some NIEs with smaller-scale markets are starting LTE deployments, there is increasing need for a cost-effective test system supporting basic test functions rather than expensive advanced functions.
The ME7800L is a cost-effective test system focused on basic RF and protocol conformance tests in one platform. Like its predecessor ME7873LA and ME7834LA units, as well as offering GCF/PTCRB-approved test cases, it also inherits their excellent operability, reliability and stability. It is the ideal platform for starting development and testing of LTE mobiles as well as for strengthening test resources.
It incorporates all the hardware and software for LTE basic function tests in one convenient package, lowering the barrier to introducing conformance testing. Both RF and protocol conformance tests can be run simultaneously while the RF conformance tests support TRx, performance, and RRM tests.
Like the ME7873LA and ME7834LA, the ME7800L is a GCF/PTCRB-approved test system and all its supported test cases are approved by GCF/PTCRB.
Both the RF and protocol tests follow the 3GPP standards.

People believe that everyone has a predetermined lifespan and when people are executed there are powers left in them due to the life left over. Due to this reason there is a great demand of the body parts and blood of the people who are executed.
Another way through which man has become a cannibal to become healthy and wealthy is by making Chinese stamina medicines. These medicines are made from corpse of babies, which are then cut into pieces and eventually a powder is made from the corpse which are then filled into capsules. This practice is common in South Korea even when it is considered illegal to make medicines from dead bodies. Not only these capsules helped to increase the stamina, but they also helped in treating many diseases.
It may sound outlandish that the sweat of a dying man can be used to treat diseases. When people used the human corpse to make medicines out of them, they utilized all the parts even the sweat from the skin to make medicines. Sweat of the dying man was used to treat many skin problems and hemorrhoids.
It is bizarre to use human fat to make medicine. It may sound strange but people make ointments from human fat. It is considered that human fat can be used to three joints in bone and joint. Ointments made from human fat was also used to treat nerve damage as well as muscle cramps. Dishes are made mixed with human fat, blood, animal fat and beer provide new dishes.
The people who were hung in Europe, their skull were used to make medicines. Moss were grown on the skull to make money. This powdered skull on which moss was grown is used to cure dysentery, convolusions and diseases related to head.

III Publishing has not been able to keep up on all the ELF news. We recommend you subscribe to Earth First! Journal. Click the icon to go there.
Or for the conventional view see the list of articles on ELF at the New York Times [registration required].
Welcome to the struggle of all species to be free.
We are the burning rage of this dying planet. The war of greed ravages the earth and species die out every day. ELF works to speed up the collapse of industry, to scare the rich, and to undermine the foundations of the state. We embrace social and deep ecology as a practical resistance movement. We have to show the enemy that we are serious about defending what is sacred. Together we have teeth and claws to match our dreams. Our greatest weapons are imagination and the ability to strike when least expected.
Since 1992, a series of earth nights and halloween smashes has mushroomed around the world. 1000's of bulldozers, powerlines, computer systems, buildings and valuable equipment have been composted. Many ELF actions have been censored to prevent our bravery from inciting others to take action.
We take inspiration from the Luddites, Levellers, Diggers, the Autonome squatter movement, ALF, the Zapatistas, and the little people -- those mischievous elves of lore. Authorities can't see us because they don't believe in elves. We are practically invisible. We have no command structure, no spokespersons, no office, just many small groups working separately, seeking vulnerable targets and parcticing our craft.
Many elves are moving to the Pacific Northwest and other sacred areas. Some elves will leave surprises as they go. Find your family! And let's dance as we make ruins of the corporate money system.
Form 'stormy night' action groups, encourage friends you trust. A tight community of love is a poweful force.
powerlines: cut supporting cables, unbolt towers, and base supports, saw wooden poles.
transformers: shoot out, bonfires, throw metal chains on top, or blow them up.
computers: smash, burn or flood buildings.
Please copy and improve for local use.
Note: III Publishing is making the information on this page available because we believe that information must be freely accessible for people to make correct decisions. We cannot endorse, in advance, actions taken by ELF or actions that may be taken by other persons, the FBI, local police, or corporate security forces that claim to be ELF actions. However, we do know the environment needs to be saved, and that action within the corporate-owned legal system will not be adequate to save the earth. We also think acts of the type discussed in the communique should not be aimed at the general public, most of whom are environmentalists and would like to do more to help the environment. Rather they should be narrowly targetted at the corporations most directly responsible for the destruction of the earth.
