This is highly disturbing news
Via Jerome a Paris at Daily Kos comes this very disturbing story. We'll run out of beer before we run out of oil.
Now, ever since the issue of peak oil and global warming hit my consciousness a couple of years ago, I've known that ethanol was a weak idea at best. The amount of energy you spend planting crops just to turn them back into energy means your net energy is low compared to other systems, and you don't change the emissions levels drastically enough to make it worthwhile in my opinion. But this just puts the nail in the coffin for me.
The rapid expansion of biofuel production may be welcome news for environmentalists but for the world's beer drinkers it could be a different story.
Strong demand for biofuel feedstocks such as corn, soyabeans and rapeseed is encouraging farmers to plant these crops instead of grains like barley, driving up prices.
Jean-François van Boxmeer, chief executive of Heineken the Dutch brewer, warned last week that the expansion of the biofuel sector was beginning to cause a "structural shift" in European and US agricultural markets.
One consequence, he said, could be a long-term shift upwards in the price of beer. Barley and hops account for about 7-8 per cent of brewing costs.
That's right. Less barley means more expensive beer--assuming you're talking about real beer and not that stuff made with rice.
There are some scholars who argue that the real reason humans became agricultural instead of staying hunter-gatherer societies was because we figured out how to make beer. To move away from that is to deny our ancient heritage. Or something.
Don't take away my beer dammit!
Vilsack's Out and the Random Ten
Not that I'm all that surprised by it--what little oxygen is left in the race after Obama and Clinton finish talking is taken up by Edwards and speculation about Gore. Richardson, it seems to me, is running for the VP spot, as I don't imagine either Edwards or Clinton are interested in being number 2.
In a different race, Vilsack might have had the chance to catch on, but in this race of stories, Vilsack just couldn't match what Clinton and Obama bring to the table in terms of excitement. He's a decent enough guy from what I've read, and came from a pretty rough background--given up for adoption as an infant, adopted mother had drug and alcohol problems--and in any other year, that might have gotten him the kind of coverage Bill Clinton manufactured for himself in 1992. But this year, it's all Obama/Clinton all the time. Edwards has even largely walked away from his "son of a mill worker" speech in favor of his "I was wrong on Iraq and Hillary ought to admit it too" campaign, and it's a real question if he's going to be able to crack the big two in terms of national attention.
As for the others, I don't imagine Biden or Dodd will make the long haul. Kucinich will stay in like he did last time, and Richardson might make it through the first couple of primaries barring something extraordinary. I don't see a candidate pulling a Dean because there's no issue as powerful as the war where everyone's basically on the same page and an insurgent candidacy can erupt. This one will be all about structural power, I imagine.
Here's the random ten--iTunes is on party shuffle and here are the next ten songs on my list. Don't make fun of me, unless you really want to.
1. Sick of Myself--Matthew Sweet
2. Hem of your Garment--Cake
3. Misty Mountain Hop--4 Non-Blondes
4. I Just Died In Your Arms Tonight--Cutting Crew
5. Canceled Check--Beck
6. Shack Up--Nouvelle Vague
7. Epistrophy (Theme)--Thelonious Monk
8. Ants Marching--Dave Matthews Band
9. Circular Trend--Veruca Salt
10. Geek in the Pink--Jason Mraz
Anyone want to share this week?
Shorter Michael Medved
Via Shakespeare's Sister, I give you Michael Medved's take on Tim Hardaway's gay-bashing:
Actual Michael Medved:
The ill-favored, grossly overweight female is the right counterpart to a gay male because, like the homosexual, she causes discomfort due to the fact that attraction can only operate in one direction. She might well feel drawn to the straight guys with whom she's grouped, while they feel downright repulsed at the very idea of sex with her.
I don't know who's smarter--Medved or Peter Griffin.
Sulu's gay?
Who knew? Guess I'm not as big a Trek geek as I thought.
I wonder why, in Generations, they gave him, of all the characters, a daughter? Did the producers want to keep it a secret?
Hey Bama folks
I know not all of you people are drunken rednecks--I grew up two states to the west of you and we can smell our own. But this kind of stuff doesn't help.
TV Night
Why is it that all our favorite tv shows, the only ones we set aside time to watch, are all on Sunday night? Well, it keeps us from vegging out the rest of the week.
Homophobia in sports and the Random Ten
I imagine it's a nationwide story given the number of sportswriters who have devoted either ink or electrons to it, and the amount of time local sports radio has given to it. I'm talking, of course, of Tim Hardaway's homophobic comments on the Dan Le Batard Show a couple of days ago.
It was bound to happen--former NBA player John Amaechi came out and was promoting his book, so on sports radio, the question for any former player was obvious--did you ever play with someone who you knew was gay, and would it bother you? The answers, pre-Hardaway, were about what you would expect--a lot of "not that I was positive about," and a few "I don't care as long as he can shoot/defend/rebound, etc."
And then there was Hardaway.
Hardaway is certainly not the only bigoted NBA player out there, past or present. For all I know, he may be in the majority. But he was the first to open his mouth and say something stupid on the subject, and the pleasant result has been that no one publicly has stepped forward to agree with him or back him up.
Could we have said that ten years ago?
Much of the debate on sports talk radio over the last few days has been over whether a professional athlete can come out while active, and the answer from the talking heads has largely been no, based on the assumption that there would still be too much hostility in the locker room and from fans (especially on the road, where the jeering would be intense), but having watched this unfold, I think they may be wrong on this.
Part of it is because while there would no doubt be loud-mouthed fans slinging homophobic slurs at an openly gay player, there would also be people in the stands shutting them up. Sports fans are not universally homophobic, something that's been emphasized to me in the short time I spent lurking on the fan forums at CBS Sportsline. Sure, there were people pulling out the expected homophobic crap, but there were also a surprising number of people shutting them down and calling them out. The world has changed, and continues to change, sometimes faster than we expect, and on this issue, I see a tipping point approaching where homophobia will be considered, rightly so, as offensive as racism.
Here's the Random Ten--turn on your computer's music player, put it on random, and list the next ten songs to appear. No skipping the Def Leppard.
1. Sick As Your Secrets--Veruca Salt
2. Definition--Black Star
3. Pride (In the Name of Love)--Nouvelle Vague
4. Ripple--Grateful Dead
5. I've Found a New baby--Squirrel Nut Zippers
6. Stardust--John Coltrane
7. Whiskey Gone--Paul Brill
8. Who Drove the Red Sports Car?--Van Morrison
9. Renegade Master--Fatboy Slim
10. Let's Talk Dirty in Hawaiian--John Prine
Special Bonus Track: Sleep All Day--Jason Mraz. I'd like to do that, but alas, I have to grade.
Okay, I have cheekily put out info via my myspace page about how I am in this month's Playboy, with an urging to go buy the mag and look at page 44.
But here, I will be less cheeky and admit that it is only my words and name that are published in Playboy, a brief, mostly-not-ad-hominem-attack criticism of a terrible (Brian and I were wailing aghast and appalled by this one) article published in Dec. about how the natural wonderfulness of boys is being systematically destroyed by an over-feminized education system.
I fired off my reply by email and never heard back, but apparently they decided it to publish it in the current (March) issue, in the FORUM (reader response section), page 44.
So now I can claim to be in Playboy, and (even better) Brian can claim that his GF is in Playboy. NEAT!
So go buy Playboy and check me out. There's hot chicks too. Yeah.
In this story from MSNBC, I learned this little tidbit about Rep. Charlie Norwood, who died today after battling cancer and lung disease.
Norwood won two Bronze Stars as a combat dentist in the Vietnam War.
That's a story I want to hear more of. I don't know anything else about the man--he was a Georgia Republican, which means I wouldn't have agreed with him on just about anything, but I want to know how he won two bronze stars while being a dentist.
Wherein I plumb the Orwellian depths of conservative email.
I was cleaning out my old email box this afternoon (in between grading papers), and I saw the subject line: The New Flat Earth Society. I just had to check it out.
The email comes from GOPUSA, a group that either phished my email address from somewhere or got it from a blog visitor who thought I could use some edge-ya-macation. Normally they get deleted along with all the penis extender/weight loss/lottery winner/free-food-from-restaurants-I'd-never-go-to ads, and so did this one eventually, but not before I explored just who this New Flat Earth Society consists of.
Surprise. It's scientists, global warming scientists in particular. I'm not going to quote any of it--I don't want to soil my apple-c function--but let's just say that the author, one Doug Patton by name, has done a hacktackular job on the subject.
So Mr. Patton, since you have placed me and most other thinking individuals in the GWC (global warming cult, you see), allow me to place you in the Corner of Mockery, along with your friends the Young-Earth Creationists and the Holocaust Deniers, never to be taken seriously again (if you ever were to begin with).
I really loathe book contests and the random ten
But alas, that's the way it seems it's done these days, so I'm sending out to two more today--the Sarabande and the National Poetry series, which it seems to me got a raw deal from the folks over at Foetry (which isn't surprising). I was an early poster over there, but it got hysterical really quickly, and I found myself defending the honor of people I didn't like personally and don't otherwise find honorable as a result. Made me feel icky. Of the 25 books the National Poetry series has put out in the last five years, the Foetry people found "conflicts" (and who knows what passes for a conflict nowadays) in 3 of them. Those are odds I can live with, though it would be nice if book companies just published poetry mroe often and we weren't stuck with this damn contest system in the first place.
Enough po-ranting. Here's this weeks random ten. Turn on your computer's music player and put it in random mode. List the next ten songs that pop up, even if they're from your angsty days.
1. Froggie Went-a-Courtin'--Spider John Koerner
2. Backstabber--The Dresden Dolls
3. Heart of Glass--Nouvelle Vague
4. A--Barenaked Ladies
5. From Four Till Late--Robert Johnson
6. Everything I Do Gone Be Funky--Dirty Dozen Brass Band
7. Soothe Yourself--Luscious Jackson
8. Intergalactic--Beastie Boys
9. Life is Wonderful--Jason Mraz
10. I Liked You Tonight--The Shins
This is why I live in Florida
What the hell do you call this?
'Right through the weekend'
Forecasters early Thursday said they expected up to 100 inches in places by the end of the weekend, but said the snow emergency still has a way to go to make history.
"We are shying away from calling this a record event," Mike Pukajlo, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Buffalo, said Wednesday.
"There are several areas in that region that often get hammered during a winter. Seventy, eighty inches is uncommon for sure, but it's not highly unusual, especially over a several-day event like this," Pukajlo said.
Pukajlo said snow squalls "will keep going right through the weekend. But we expect to see the bands moving around a bit more, back and forth, so it's not going to keep pounding on just one area."
Over eight feet of snow. Eight freaking feet. I keep thinking I should type something different, but I'm stuck on repeat. Eight feet of snow. Eight feet of snow. Eight feet...
The only song I ever heard him sing
But man, he did a hell of a job on it.
Frankie Laine, dead at 93.
Congratulations all around.
Three friends of mine were announced as Dorothy Sargent Rosenberg Award winners yesterday: Emily Rosko, Robin Ekiss and Xochiquetzal Candelaria. Emily and Robin and I were all Stegners together, and Emily and Xochi and I were all on an AWP panel together last year. I'd like to reprint all three of their poems here, but I fear that would be stretching the limits of fair use beyond reason, so I'll stick with Xochi's poem since I've posted poems by both Emily and Robin before, and because this is the first of Xochi's creative work I've ever read. Enjoy.
The Irises
Their green sepals begin like mouths, forming the word
okay, turning over at the tips to say
yes, then oh yes.
Three deep purple petals smoldering give way
to three more giving way.
Fire breaks through as a seam in the center.
These are messengers remembering that to speak
one should bloom and to bloom
is to sing and sing and sing.
You can read the other winners over at the website for the Dorothy Sargent Rosenberg Awards.
I'm not quite ashamed
PZ Myers is ashamed because he scored a 90% on "The Ultimate Bible Quiz. That's actually a pretty respectable score for one of these online quiz things--it's filled with enough gimmes that most people can pass, but it had some oddball questions as well.
I did a little better.
You know the Bible 100%!
Wow! You are awesome! You are a true Biblical scholar, not just a hearer but a personal reader! The books, the characters, the events, the verses - you know it all! You are fantastic!
Ultimate Bible Quiz
Create MySpace Quizzes
I'm not bothered by my perfect score. I like doing well on tests in general, and I can always fall back on the argument that any discussion of western literature, especially anything more than 200 years old, has to include the influence of the Bible, but the truth is that I just have a ridiculous memory for this kind of minutiae. It's one of those blessing and curse things--the looks I get when I answer some trivia question about a 1970s tv show that ran less than two seasons are the worst of all.
The Random Ten, Voting Machine Edition
Seems a bit circular, seeing as much of the electronic voting machine controversy began here in Florida back in 2000, that Florida may have just struck the death blow for those machines. I voted against Charlie Crist last November, and I more than likely won't vote for him when he runs for re-election, but I'll give him credit so far on this one issue. Well done.
Here's the random ten--set iTunes on party shuffle and write down the next ten songs that pop up. No cheating to look tragically hip.
1. Driftin'--Herbie Hancock
2. One Arm Steve--Widespread Panic
3. Kiss of Death--Split Lip Rayfield
4. Line Up--Elastica
5. The Drugs Don't Work--Ben Harper and the Innocent Criminals
6. Street Woman--Ornette Coleman
7. I Couldn't Love You More--Sade
8. 5 Million Ways to Kill a CEO--The Coup
9. Gonna Make You Sweat--C & C Music Factory
10. 911 Is a Joke--Public Enemy
Special Bonus Track: Your Woman by White Town
Bring on the optical scan machines!
Not to pile on, but...
It's bad enough that Boston's finest went a wee bit overboard in their "investigation," and that Menino had a conniption on national television, but this is ree-goddamn-diculous.
A friendly tip, Mayor. Your initial reaction might be excusable, considering the way the Bush administration has been jerking us around with the terra-alert system for the last five years and the shit way they've dealt with homeland security, but jailing an artist who was looking to make a couple of bucks on an ad gig is no way to rehabilitate your image. And trust me, you need lots of rehab right now--Lindsay Lohan/Britney Spears quality rehab.
Dear Mayor Menino,
I am writing from Florida to thank you for the best laugh I've had in ages. It's funny enough that Boston mistook pictures of cartoon characters for... a terror threat??!!!... (did you guys think you were being invaded by aliens? That's precious!)... but that fact that you're now so embarrassed that you want to make a case of it... well, let's just say it's the best advertising that a cartoon that airs at 3am(!) could ever hope for. It's not, however, very good advertising for Boston or Bostonians, who, if you will forgive me, look at bit, from down here, like a bunch of well-lit boobs. :-) Thanks again for the laugh! - Amy Letter

Julia was surprised by a perfect figure
TV presenter, together with her husband Andrei Konchalovsky went on holiday to India. Beloved spend a lot of time on the beach, go sightseeing and enjoy the sun.
Pair of Andrei Konchalovsky and Yulia Vysotskaya is considered one of the most beautiful and popular in the domestic show-business. TV presenter and filmmaker married for almost 20 years, but during this time the lovers did not lose the romance in the relationship.
After the holidays Andrew and Julia went on vacation to India. Celebrity couple regularly pleases fans of bright images.
Today Vysotskaya surprised fans with rare frame. TV presenter posed in a black bathing suit. Netizens were amazed at Yulia's slender figure.
"Hey! Smolny? Who else at work?!" – commented on a picture of Julia.
"Slim!", "You! The example and the envy of all women", "Beautiful! Unexpectedly, of course! I did not even realize that it is Julia," "You're so different and always beautiful! Love you dearly and admire. You inspire me," said fans of the presenter.
It is worth noting that Julia rarely publishes candid shots on the Network. For this reason, fans did not even know the slender girl a TV presenter. The star told fans that the heat of India feels great. The presenter missed the bright sun and carefree holidays.
Konchalovsky also publishes in his Instagram videos and photos with guests. A few days ago, directed the video, which shows fans the sights of India.
In 2011 Julia has opened in Moscow a gastronomic restaurant "Ernika". The TV host also founded the culinary Studio Julia Vysotskaya and travel company, creating a "gastronomic" routes for the best restaurants in Europe.

Packing for winter travel is much worse than packing for summer adventures. Sweaters, base layers and ski helmets take up much more space cthan tank tops and shorts. We're continually looking for ways to streamline our wardrobes so that when we fly, it's a breeze. One of our first steps is finding a lightweight down jacket that looks good, feels warm, packs down small and isn't absurdly priced. The Uniqlo Ultra Light Down Jacket checks all those boxes. Bonus: it's water-repellant so it can handle light rain and snow.
Nylon and down make up the shell and guts of this jacket. The 20 denier exterior is ultra light, yet doesn't look cheap. Wear this jacket to any casual business events or over t-shirt and jeans — it blends with everything and adds a David Beckham-like effect to your wardrobe. This jacket stuffs into a sack about the size of a water bottle (credit the down insulation), so that you can toss it in the back seat of the car, into a backpack or a suitcase. When traveling, the Uniqlo Ultra Light Down jacket works double duty as an airplane pillow; it's just the right amount of plush to rest your head.
While down jackets typically run at a higher price than some synthetic jackets, it's hard to find a better deal than this one at Uniqlo. Right now, you can buy a down jacket for just $30, which is 50 percent off. There are 11 colors to choose from, but only a handful are on sale.

DOC ID 1073549
Offender Name Michael B Politte
Height/Weight 5'11" / 160
Hair/Eyes Brown / Blue
Assigned Location Jefferson City Correctional Center
A Missouri man who maintains he was wrongly convicted of murdering his mother more than 20 years ago has been granted parole, his attorneys said Tuesday evening. Michael Politte, now 37, was convicted of second-degree murder in 2002, four years after he found Rita Politte's body burning on the floor of their Hopewell home in eastern Missouri, his lawyers have said. He was 14 when she died. Politte and his sisters maintained he is innocent. Now that he has been granted parole, he will be released April 23 from the Jefferson City Correctional Center. "But this is not the end. Justice for the Politte family demands Mike's exoneration and we will continue to litigate in court to overturn his conviction," his lawyers with the MacArthur Justice Center, the Midwest Innocence Project and Langdon & Emison said in a statement. "His release on parole means he can now continue this fight from home with his sisters."
In court filings, Politte's attorneys argued he was convicted based in part on discredited fire investigation techniques and an incompetent new public defender at trial. The jurors who convicted Politte have raised concerns about their decision in recent years. Two believe he is innocent and should be freed to correct "this wrong," while others have said he deserves a new trial based on evidence they never heard. One of the jurors, Linda Dickerson-Bell, of Bonne Terre, in an affidavit said she learned through an MTV documentary series, which featured Politte's case, that there was not gasoline on his shoes. She called that evidence the "nail in the coffin" for her at trial. "After learning about the new evidence, my guilt has only grown," she wrote. "I now firmly believe … that we made a terrible mistake.

Attorneys for Michael Politte, who was convicted at the age of 14 for killing his mother, say their efforts to clear his name will continue after his release on parole in April after serving more than 23 years in prison.
Politte's mother Rita was burned to death inside their mobile home in Hopewell, Missouri on December 5, 1998. After spending roughly four years in juvenile detention, he was tried as an adult and convicted of second-degree murder in 2002, and sentenced to life in prison.
His attorneys announced Wednesday that Politte was granted parole, effective April 23. The Missouri Department of Corrections has not yet confirmed that decision.
"This is not the end. Justice for the Politte family demands Mike's exoneration and we will continue to litigate in court to overturn his conviction. His release on parole means he can now continue this fight at home with his sisters. We look forward to the Court hearing his case and finally giving him his day in court," a joint statement from his lawyers from the MacArthur Justice Center, The Midwest Innocence Project and Langdon & Emison said.
Last August, his attorneys filed a petition with the Missouri Court of Appeals to reconsider the case, and in October, asked the Missouri Supreme Court to free him, citing what it says was a conviction based on debunked science and a biased investigation.

Image & Form Reveals That Steam Powered Giraffe is Producing the SteamWorld Heist Soundtrack
Will appear in-game, too
by Thomas Whitehead Tue 25th Nov 2014
SteamWorld Dig, the 3DS eShop title — since ported to other platforms including Wii U — propelled Image & Form to prominence among Nintendo gamers and the wider gaming community, so there'll be plenty of attention on the upcoming SteamWorld Heist. Less a sequel and more of a spin-off, it sees the steam-driven robots exploring and surviving in outer space, with the player raiding other ships for resources.
A feature of SteamWorld Dig that some particularly enjoyed was its soundtrack, and it seems Image & Form is keen to ensure that this follow-up delivers an equally memorable end result. The studio has confirmed that Steam Powered Giraffe — a band based out of San Diego — will be producing all of the music and appearing as a live band in the game's bar areas. As the studio's Brjann Sigurgeirsson explains, the band's concept of being steam-driven robots performing music couldn't be a better fit, to the point that the association seems almost too good to be true.
A SteamWorld game about steam-powered robots featuring real-world steam-powered robots. It's perfect!
I met with SPG at E3 in June to seal the deal, and since I love their music I have to admit I was a bit starstruck. But it turned out they loved our games as well. We're very much alike, childish and pretty resourceful. They wear a bit more makeup at times, is all.
Band member, David Michael Bennett (The Spine), has also pitched in on the partnership.
Luckily, make-up aside, our mechanical cog-filled hearts were in synch. When asked if we would like to collaborate with Image and Form on their next SteamWorld game we immediately said yes! We loved SteamWorld Dig, and a steam-powered robot band making music for a steam-powered robot game? Count us in!
It's a unique and enjoyable experience for the band. There is definitely a ton of passion going into the game, from them, from us, it's a labor of love and we personally can't wait to share our contributions to the game with the world.
This could be a fascinating partnership, for sure. Below is a new video for "Prepare for Boarding" from the game, while you can see more of the band's videos on their YouTube channel; we've also included their cover of Rihanna's 'Diamonds', which has over two million views.

Let us know what you think of this partnership, while in the meantime you can learn a bit more about the game in our hands on feature and interview with Image & Form.

Cool! Steamworld U is awesome!
Jimmy_G_Buckets
Looking forward to this.That baritone is deep!
Mercy_Lost
Game looks like a very beautiful starbound, and love the music.
Is anyone else worried though about this being released around the same time as Code Name S.T.E.A.M?
It's probably a long shot, but due to the similarities, delaying S.T.E.A.M. ( even by a month or two) would be the courteous thing to do for the sake of Image & Form's relationship with Nintendo.

Steam Powered Giraffe is my favorite Steam Punk bands.
I have all three of their CD's thus far.
Steam Powered Giraffe
S.P.G. 2 Cent Show
S.P.G. MKIII
And their live Blu-Ray that came out a few months back.
This just became really exciting!
Will-75
Awesome can't wait .
We've seen little of this game, but the music already seems so fitting. I love it.
RoomB31
Quirky, the game looks awesome, the cover of Diamonds is bizarre tho.
Klinny
This is awesome! I saw Steam Powered Giraffe perform in Seattle last September. Great music and very funny performances/personalities.
Definitely excited for this!
Dizzy_Boy
Hatworths singing is slowly improving, I really hated his voice when he first took over from The John.
Also, I wonder when Rabbit will finally settle on a look for her charecter. I know it's been a working progress for a whie, allthough the one in the steamworld vid is probably the best incarnation so far.
Also, ice cream monsters, I'm going hunting.

Well, then... Steam Powered Giraffe just got a new fan.
Taceus
Cool collaboration.
I would like it if there was an actual steam powered giraffe hidden in the game. Just keep it away from steam powered Alan Garner.
FriedSquid
Hey, I know them! Haven't listened to them in a few years but I still want to see them live someday.
Hopefully this will give them just a slight boost in popularity!

Şeyhülislam sau Şeyh-ül İslam (formă turcă,a termenului arab: شيخ الإسلام Sheh al-Islam), este cel mai învățat și cel mai în măsură să se pronunțe pe teme de religie, autoritatea oficială supremă în materie de religie islamică într-un număr de state musulmane.
Acest titlu era sau este atribuit unui teolog de frunte, care deține o cunoaștere profundă a tradiției legale islamice și capacitatea de a aplica normele religioase în situații și chestiuni noi,care nu au fost discutate sau rezolvate anterior. De asemenea unui sheih-al-islam i se pretinde a fi o autoritate morală în rândurile comunității sau națiunii islamice Umma.
Într-o serie de societăți islamice titlul de Sheih al Islam era echivalent cu cel de judecător suprem sau mare cadiu.

Imperiul Otoman
În timpul Imperiului Otoman Șeyhülislam era capul suprem al milletului islamic sunit, aproximativ în aceeași măsură cum Patriarhul tututor elenilor, adică Patriarhul ortodox al Constantinopolului reprezenta așa numitul Rum-millet.

funcționarul de stat care avea cea mai mare împuternicire să decidă. Când era nevoie își exprima opinia emițând un edict religios islamic, fetva. Aceste fetva aveau rangul de lege. În 1920 când s-a înființat Guvernul Parlamentar, această instituție a devenit minister cu denumirea Şeriye ve Evkaf Vekaleti. La scurt timp după proclamarea Republicii în 1924, după ce a fost adoptat principiul laicității, acest minister s-a desființat și locul i-a fost luat de Ministerul Afacerilor Religioase.

De la acordarea acestui titlu lui Molla Fenârî în 1424 până la ultimul şeyhülislam otoman, Medenî Nuri Efendi în 1922, și demisia acestuia împreună cu întregul cabinet au trecut 498 de ani.

Între 1424 și 1922 au fost 131 de şeyhülislami numiți de 175 de ori. Cel mai longeviv a fost Ebu's-Suud Efendi care a stat în funcție 29 de ani, în timp ce Memikzade Mustafa Efendi a rezistat doar 13 ore.

Dintre cei 131 de şeyhülislami, doar 9 nu au fost de etnie turcă (arabă, bosniacă, gruzină, cerkeză, albaneză). Printre şeyhülislami s-au numărat savanți, scriitori, poeți, caligrafi, compozitori și legiuitori. Adunând la un loc toate fetva emise, mulți şeyhülislami au lăsat în urmă importante opere atât din punct de vedere al științelor islamice, cât și din punct de vedere al istorie dreptului otoman.

În timpul lui Yavuz Sultan Selim (1512–1520), şeyhülislamului Ahmed ibni Kemal Pașa i s-a acordat și titlul de Müftî-yüs-sekaleyn (cel care dă fetva oamenilor și ginilor). Până în timpul lui Soliman Magnificul (1520–1566) nu exista o regulă obligatorie de numire a şeyhülislamului, însă, după o lege întocmită de Ebu's-Suud Efendi, acesta a devenit o instituție în ierarhia otomană.

În legislația lui Mahomed Cuceritorul, şeyhülislamul și învățătorii padișahului erau mai sus ierarhic decât vizirii. Conform acestei legislații, şeyhülislamul era șeful ulemalelor (învățaților-religioși), la mijlocul secolului al XVI-lea fiind considerat și șeful savanților. În secolul al XVI-lea, venirea în funcție a unor alimi (învățați musulmani) puternici ca Zenbilli Ali Cemâlî Efendi, İbn-i Kemal Pașazâde și Ebu's-Suûd Efendi a adus și mai mult prestigiu instituției. Aceștia au avut o contribuție deosebită în ascensiunea Imperiului Otoman.

La început o funcție de rang secund ca judecător militar și consilier al sultanului, instituția de şeyhülislam a căpătat importanță mai ales după venirea în funcție a lui İbn-i Kemal (1525–1533) și a lui Ebu's-Suud Efendi (1545–1574).

Şeyhülislam era considerat de otomani șeful clasei savanților în științe. În perioada otomană clasică, funcționarii statului se împărțeau în trei clase: kalemiye, seyfiye ve ilmiye, adică funcționari, militari și savanți. Clasa savanților corespundea Ministerului Justiției, Ministerului Educației Naționale și Ministerului Afacerilor Religioase din ziua de azi.

În istoria otomană nu se căuta o educație deosebită pentru a fi sadrazam (al doilea în rang după padișah), dar pentru a fi şeyhülislam și chiar pentru funcțiile premergătoare: kadiu, muftiu, muderris (profesor în medrese – echivalentul de azi al profesorului universitar) se cerea cea mai aleasă educație.

Lista purtătorilor titlului de  Șeyhülislam în Imperiul Otoman
Molla Fenari, Molla Yegan, Fahreddin Acemi, Molla Hüsrev, Molla Gürani, Molla Abdülkerim, Çelebi Alaaddin, Efdalzade Hamidüddin, Zembilli Ali Cemali, Kemalpașazade, Sadullah Sadi, Çivizade Muhyiddin, Hami Abdülkadir, Fenarizade Muhyiddin, Ebussuud, Konyalı Hamid, Kadızade Ahmed, Mollazade Mehmed, Çivizade Hacı Mehmed, Müeyyedzade Abdülkadir, Bostanzade Mehmed, Bayramzade Zekeriyya, Hoca Mehmed Sadeddin, Caferzade Sunullah, Hoca Sadeddinzade, Ebulmeyanin Mustafa, Hoca Sadeddin Mehmed, Yahya Efendi, Ahizade Hüseyin, Ebu Said Mehmed, Muid Ahmed, Hacı Abdurrahman, Mehmed Bahai, Karaçelebizade, Hasanzade Abdurrahman, Memikzade Mustafa, Hocazade Mesud, Hanefi Mehmed, Balizade Mustafa, Bolevi Mustafa, Esiri Mehmed, Sunizade, Mimkanizade, Çatalcalı Ali, Ankaravi Mehmed, Debbağzade Mehmed, Seyyid Feyzullah, EbuSaid Feyzullah, Sadreddin Sadık, İmam Mehmed, Pașmakçızade, Ebezade, Mehmed ataullah, İmam Mahmud, Mirza Musa, Menteșzade, Kara Ismail, Yenișehirli Abdullah, Mirzazade, Pașmakçı Abdullah, Ebulhayr, Ebu Ishakzade, Durri Mehmed, Feyzullahzade Mustafa, Pirizade, Hayati Mehmed, Mehmed Zeyni, Karahalilzade, Mehmed Esad, Seyyid Mürteza, Medeni Mehmed, Mustafa Sabri.

Q: jQuery form plugin - iframe problem Here I am, with another problem. :) Maybe this time I'll get some responses. :P I'm using jquery.form.js plugin, to process forms with file fields.  It's simple implementation.
$this.ajaxSubmit({

  data: { 'ajax' : 'true' },
  dataType: 'html',
  success: parseRsp,
  error: parseErr

});

It works on Chrome, Opera and new Firefoxes. It doesnt on Firefox 3.x and all versions of IE. Plugin throws some Server abort problem, but after some changes in code to debug it, I get it. Function getDoc(iframe) throws Permission denied in IE. But why? It's not cross-domain or something? I even add <script>document.domain = 'mydomain.com';</script> but that doesn't work either. Any ideas?
BTW. we are using APE Project. It probably makes some document.domain modifications, but on Chrome console, on page where is form, when I type document.domain i'm still getting mydomain.com, so...

A: I had a similar issue just now.
The problem was that I was setting the document.domain property in the parent document. The api document that is inside the iframe is vanilla json, and, as such, has no opportunity of setting a document.domain. Hence the permission issue.
So I had to remove the document.domain assignment from the parent.

Home When Non-Allergic People Stand up for Food Allergies, We All Win
When Non-Allergic People Stand up for Food Allergies, We All Win
By: Hannah Lank
in Managing Allergies, Travel & Dining
Dua Lipa, left, with her younger sister. Photo: Instagram
There's nothing like celebrity to draw attention to a medical condition.
On July 25, 2018, British pop star Dua Lipa tweeted her frustration at United Airlines while traveling with her sister, who has an allergy to nuts: "I can't believe I'm on an @united flight rn and I told the steward that my sister was severely allergic to nuts and his reply was 'we're not a nut-free airline so if she has an EpiPen she might have to use that as we can't not serve other passengers in your section nuts.'"
Lipa followed this up with another tweet to her 2.4 million followers, asking: "Is it me or is that kinda mental???" The first tweet was liked more than 41,000 times, but also drew a number of replies in which people defended United Airlines and said the airline shouldn't have to make accommodations just for one person.
However, as those of us allergic to nuts and peanuts know, it is possible to have a reaction from nuts being served on a plane – studies show that about 10 percent of those flying with allergies have experienced one. The experience of this service becomes so uncomfortable – up in the air, far from emergency medical care – that it seems a minor to ask that passengers forgo their peanuts or nuts for a few hours in exchange for another snack.
The flap that Lipa started began trending on Twitter, and was picked by media outlets around the globe, from the U.K.'s The Independent to People, the New York Post, the Daily Mail and more. Besieged by attention, United Airlines apologized to Lipa via Twitter and asked to speak with her privately about what had happened.
Lipa Sets Example
As a Dua Lipa fan and someone with a nut-allergy myself, I was thrilled to see this tweet – not because of the frustrating situation described, but because when celebrities speak up about food allergies, we all win. I've been thinking about the bigger takeaways from this tweetstorm – including not just the impact of celebrity, but also the importance of famous people without food allergies lending support to this community.
While it is powerful for the food allergy community to have food-allergic celebrity role models and advocates, it can often be as powerful, to have non-allergic individuals speak up on our behalf. For example, when a celebrity like Lipa speaks up on behalf of her sister, she shows to the world that food allergies are serious and need to be treated as such – they're not just something people with food-allergies exaggerate.
Lipa's actions serve as an example for other non-allergic people: help those of with food allergies to amplify our voice and help us navigate tricky situations.
Unfortunately, a lot of pop culture representations of food allergies poke fun at how truly serious food allergies can be. I had an unfortunate realization of this fact while watching an episode of one of my favorite shows, Broad City, where the plot line is that the two main characters, Abbi and Ilana, go to a fancy restaurant for Abbi's birthday. Ilana has an allergic reaction because she's been eating shellfish all night, even though she knows she has an allergy.
The use of food allergies like that propagate the impression to the non-allergic public that food allergies aren't that serious – that it's okay to eat your allergen, and that the effects of a severe reaction can even be funny. That's just not true.
Stand Up for the Allergic
We need non-allergic people to stop making light of serious medical condition that is already very misunderstood, and instead to use their platform to help explain what food allergies are and how they should be handled. This can certainly be done using comedy, but an anaphylactic reaction should never be the punchline.
We need non-allergic people to support us and help make us safe. We need them to be mad when companies refuse to accommodate – like Dua Lipa did for her sister.
I remember a situation when my best friend spoke up for me when another friend asked to take a sip of my drink. Without my even having to explain why I had to say no, she jumped in and explained the risks of cross-contamination. It made it less awkward for me, and and seemed to come across as more serious and legitimate because it was coming from a well-informed, non-allergic person. You don't have to be a celebrity to use your voice to help the food-allergy community.
So my main point is: we need non-allergic people on our side and we need them as advocates. After all, most people in the world do not have food allergies, so the better informed they are, the safer we, as food-allergic people, will be in turn. It magnifies our voice, our message and our strength as a community. On behalf of the food allergy community: thank you for leading the way, Dua Lipa!

Opinion: Vaccine needed globally
As I sat recovering from the side-effects of my third COVID vaccine shot, certain things did not add up. First of all, I know a number of good, intelligent people who are choosing not to get vaccinated.
Jan 5, 2022 5:12 AM
Updated Jan 10, 2022 2:44 PM
Hon. Princess Olabisi Adebajo of Lagos registering for her vaccination.
As I sat recovering from the side-effects of my third COVID vaccine shot, certain things did not add up.
First of all, I know a number of good, intelligent people who are choosing not to get vaccinated. Of course, there are some very unkind individuals among them who harass our healthcare workers and people in the service industry.
What is interesting is that this group is different from people who generally object to vaccinations. They are more numerous and they lean more conservatively than usual. The reason for this is becoming clear. The independent American news source Democracy Now recently stated, "a right-wing network linked to billionaire Charles Koch has played a key role in fighting public health measures during the pandemic, including mask and vaccine mandates, contact tracing and lockdowns."
My first two doses of the COVID vaccine were Astra-Zeneca. When demand for this vaccine dropped in western countries, remaining doses were sent to developing countries, supposedly to meet the call of the World Health Organization to vaccinate billions of our less-wealthy neighbours. The problem was that these vaccines were weeks away from their expiration date and most ended up going to waste because health authorities did not have time to get them into the arms of their citizens.
The only vaccines available in Canada right now are made by Pfizer and Moderna. Both of these companies have received generous government assistance and have benefited from publicly funded research by academic scientists in developing their vaccines.
The fact that billions of people have not been vaccinated allows the COVID virus more chances to mutate. The vast majority of these individuals live in places where governments simply cannot pay the asking price of Western pharmaceutical companies.
As I recover from my latest injection, I ask myself, "How many more boosters will I need before the COVID crisis is over?" I also ask, "How many more of my tax dollars will go into the coffers of Pfizer and Moderna?"
Fortunately, other global players are stepping forward. The Chinese government will donate 600 million doses of their vaccine to Africa and will produce 400 million more through partnerships with Chinese companies and African countries, according to the Africa Times. Such sharing, quite frankly, puts our profit-driven pharmaceutical industry to shame.
Tiny Cuba has also developed two Covid vaccines, both of which are proving to be quite effective. This is very good news for Cuba's political allies, namely Venezuela and Iran. Other countries have also shown interest including Vietnam, Nicaragua, Argentina and Mexico. These vaccines are not only being made available to millions more people, they are also a fraction of the price of those produced by Pfizer and Moderna.
What humanity needs to realize is COVID does not care whose podcast you listen to. It doesn't care how rich or poor you are. It doesn't care if you love America, China or Cuba. It doesn't care if you're a capitalist or a socialist. It will spread and mutate. It will make people sick and it could potentially become more contagious and deadly. No one in the world is safe until everyone in the world is safe.
We will be studying the global COVID pandemic for many years. We will look at what we did right and what we did wrong. We will look at health measures that were effective in preventing the spread, the long-term impact of vaccinations, the reason for the spread of misinformation, and the economic impact of the pandemic.
We will also celebrate the heroes who saved lives and kept our spirits strong through a very difficult time.
One thing that we need to understand right now is that we must put aside our greed and our political interests and come together as one humanity for the good of all humanity. It is up to us to save our own lives.

Q: How to achieve smooth Hotspot Focus in panorama Since Last 2 days I am trying to achieve smooth hotspot focus but i am not able to achieve it.
please click on below link and click on panorama icon,you will get an idea what i am saying.
 http://ggnome.com/samples/pano2vr_5/tower/
PS: I have used http://threejs.org/examples/webgl_panorama_equirectangular.html panorama to achieve desired functionality.
Can anyone help me with this please...

A: You either have to create a 3d object in your scene and make it clickable or add a second threejs renderer, this time it will be a css3drenderer, basically it allows to have html elements in your threejs world. Place the camera in the middle of a cube made by html/css elements:
http://mrdoob.com/lab/javascript/threejs/css3d/
or go completely with css, something like:

$('body').on('click', function(e) {

 console.log('clicked on .cube. New transform: ');
 var newTransform = "translateZ(800px) rotateX("+Math.round(Math.random() * 360)+"deg) rotateY("+Math.round(Math.random() * 360)+"deg) rotateZ("+0+"deg)";
 console.log(newTransform)

 $('.cube').css({

  var newTransform = "translateZ(800px) rotateX("+ (startposx + posy * -1) +"deg) rotateY("+ (startposy + posx) +"deg) rotateZ("+0+"deg)";
  $('.cube').css({

2.3.5 Thousand-Year Ko
Dia. 2-13-1 is the basic thousand-year ko shape, which often appears in ordinary play. Thousand-year ko attracted attention as a rules problem when it appeared in the second round of the Nihon Kiin's autumn ranking tournament (Oteai) in 1928, in a two-stone game between Segoe (then 7 dan) and Takahashi (then 3 dan). Dia. 2-13-2 shows the final position in that game. Segoe (white) was ahead, so he regarded the position as a type of seki, but Takahashi's idea was that as long as the fate of this position remained unresolved, the outcome of the game was not settled. They proceeded to fill the neutral points, each reading the other's thoughts, until the neutral points were all gone. Segoe now passed, claiming that there was nowhere to play. Takahashi refused to allow this, claiming that to move was an obligation, not a right. A major problem had arisen.
Dia. 2-13-1
There were no written rules at that time, so naturally differing views were advanced. Since nobody's views or claims were clearly supported by any rules, and since there was no historical precedent or custom, there was no prospect of reaching a definitive conclusion. The significance of this game was that it started a movement for a written formulation of the Japanese rules. The question was not just whether alternate play was a right or a duty, or how to settle the problem in the diagram. Basic issues had been raised about the rules.
A thousand-year ko is usually settled during the game. The above problem arises if the ko is left until the game reaches a state in which both sides have only small ko threats.

Court bid launched to protect female refugees in Scotland from being forced to live with their abusers
WOMEN are stuck in a Catch-22 situation where they face deportation if they decide to leave their husbands or partners.
Karin Goodwin
Female refugees can be forced to live with abusers or face deportation.
FEMALE refugees in Scotland have to stay with abusive husbands or face deportation, a women's rights group claim.
Home Office guidelines mean women have to prove they have been abused before they can make their own asylum bid.
Campaigners say many victims stay in dangerous situations because they are scared of being sent home.
Sarah Crawford, a lawyer with the Legal Services Agency's Women's Project, has taken a test case to the Court of Session which she hopes will lead to the Home Office changing the rules.
Dr Marsha Scott from Women's Aid.
Backed by the Equality and Human Rights Commission, she argues refugee women should have the same right to apply for leave to remain in the UK as foreign spouses of British citizens.
Crawford said women joining their husbands through family reunion desperately need protection, because if they leave the marital home they cannot legally stay in the UK unless they can categorically prove they are being abused.
They can't get into refuge accommodation because of their immigration status and so face street homelessness.

Crawford said: "The system is stacked against women in such circumstances. The evidence required is overwhelming."
Her service often find they are forced to help refugee women get a home before starting legal work.
Scottish Women's Aid's Dr Marsha Scott said: "This is a bureaucratic form of torture. It re-victimises women."
In 2013, Iranian refugee Fatemeh Bostani was stabbed to death by her husband in Cardonald, Glasgow.

Innovative product conveyance solutions don't spring up overnight. Before any other action takes place, engineering experts walk the floors of your business. They're there to assess the processing environment. A customised conveyor system rises to accommodate the unique design solution. It is modular, built from plastic or metal, and powered by a capable drive mechanism.
Despite their highly developed mechatronic assemblies, conveyor systems can jolt to a stop when the machinery isn't perfectly tuned. Like a perfectly conducted musical concerto, all the parts in this equipment line must operate synchronously. Otherwise, the whole production area starts to feel like a congested river.
Last time around, we learned all about industrial conveyor systems. In terms of productivity gains, these commodity carrying lines enhance workflow. They form the backbone of numerous manufacturing facilities. Furthermore, they're used in mines and packaging plants, plus many other automated processing environments.
Welcome to our opening treatise, an article that will illustrate the importance of industrial conveyor systems. First of all, you should know that this moving ribbon acts as a transporting backbone for countless industries. Mines use conveyor systems, as do quarries. The packaging industry, waste treatment plants, manufacturing facilities, they all rely on the workflow facilitating features of this elongated contrivance. Let's take a closer look at these applications.


@Memphiz @garretn - I have just confirmed the library dumping issue occurs with allegro NFS server and libnfs 1.6 (i.e. Beta 1) as well.
It's definitely not a hanewin issue, it's a libnfs issue.
Also - Gotham Beta1 definitely doesn't have the artwork problems. So basically libnfs behaviour from beta2 plus a fix for the artwork problems would be a get-out-jail here.
...broke the artwork side of things.
I can't see an obvious commit there that would break it, but I am not the best reader of it. @jmarshall most of the thumb stuff in there looks to be you - any clues at all why anything in there would break artwork loading??

I don't want to blame it on you. Because I (so my fault!) should have never listened to one user who has problems. And then i also should not have listened when you told me all your problems are gone with libnfs1.3. Multiple errors i made here for sure - but we need to live with it now. (and just overread the blame from users).
This is something i learned. Not jumping into the knife because of 1 or 2 users are reporting a problem and claiming to know a valid fix for it.
You added a lot after I first read this, I've just seen it.
When I tried putting libnfs1.3 back into beta1 - I did not see the artwork issues as most of my stuff still had artwork at a quick glance - it wasn't obvious and I was trying to help out by being responsive and testing things quickly. I should have tested more but I have very limited time - but I am sorry if I led you astray.
That said - it's still a better fix - if you'd released with 1.6 and then nuked a bunch of users libraries - those without a backup, that would be worse than missing artwork. Well, I think so. I suspect people losing all their watched/unwatched would think so too.
I suppose that actually means something before beta1 broke the artwork, looking at it.

@garretn - I have not had time to do much with allegro yet but over the weekend should be ok to do some solid testing. But to duplicate you really have to try something fairly similar I'd say - so not everything in a VM, but hanewin in it's own place, over the network, to xbmc clients on other windows machines (ideally both wireless and wired).
Yes m8. I installed 12.3 as soon as it came out pretty much. Didn't notice any large amounts of loss in the music library. That's not to say I wasn't having things dumped, just that I didn't notice any.
The ReadyNAS NVX/Ultra/Pro series ran a heavily modified version of Debian Etch. That's about all I know. The newer devices (ON OS6) are running something much more recent AFAIK.
(2014-03-27, 19:46)brazen1 Wrote: Switching O/S to accommodate NFS isn't an option for many of us imo. Personally I use Windows on 1 PC to do EVERYTHING and I mean EVERYTHING including being an HTPC and a common everyday computer tasking many functions besides multimedia home theatre entertainment. I have added an AVR and some USB peripherals. There is nothing a NAS, standalone, or Linux/Unix/OpenElec, etc O/S is going to do more efficient, with ease of use, functionality, economically or popularity than my little ol' W7 PC aside from this XBMC NFS Windows issue and I can back that statement up.
SMB was ok for DVD material in the past. Not anymore. Streaming Blu-Ray WiFi with the best of routers and adapters is still impossible. Using AC1900 right now. Some titles work without buffering, some don't. NFS helps a bunch. Powerline adapters are also finicky. Wired there is no problems but many of us cannot add Ethernet cable throughout our homes so we depend on WiFi and that Wifi depends on NFS now and that NFS depends on Windows. Well, Microsoft gave up on NFS. It isn't even included in Windows anymore. So, we go to a 3rd party (Hanewin). I've been using it long enough to know it works better than SMB, it's simple, and I like it.
The point is, switching O/S from Windows to something more easily compatible with NFS is out of the question for users like me. I will use the broken functionality of libnfs and or an XBMC backward version before I would ever change my O/S or add a standalone device. It would be a step backward, not forward. Please pursue this issue and don't give up on it. I don't write code and I am not as techy as others here but I can follow directions and offer help where I can.
That's definitely fair enough. I ran mine with Windows for years. I found that I was really only running XBMC on it and a great xmbc user convinced me to use OpenElec and I haven't looked back. Super fast boot right into XBMC and all hardware is automatically set up, no messing with drivers. NFS works perfectly as well. You can install it onto a USB stick like I did and boot off that to test it out. Another user told me he would never use Windows on an HTPC. I found it a good learning experience. While I haven't gone with Ubuntu, OE is really just a Linux OS designed to run XBMC. While testing it on a USB stick, I found that I wasn't missing anything from Windows. Any hardware I plugged in was recognized. My Nyxboard, diNovo mini, etc. Try installing it to a USB stick and see if you like it. You might find that you don't need Windows at all.
I live and breath linux personally, my primary desktop is linux -- which I work from, so I spend close to 10 hours every (work) day on it. However, like others I imagine, the fundamental problem (and is still a problem -- that while improving, is not there yet) is if you play games on your HTPC at all. I launch Steam Big Picture from mine, and play games that aren't available for linux. Switching OSes for this is really not feasible, I would either never play the games or never use XBMC, switching is just too spur of the moment.
Gotcha. The gaming definitely is the deal breaker for Linux.
Doing a HTPC rebuild in a few months time. Not going down the NUC route because I don't fancy having an ugly big hole in the bottom of my rack, with a dinky little NUC device in it, lol, but more importantly I plan to share my Steam library to the same machine. I expect I have quite a few titles on Steam that won't be available on "SteamOS" so I will need to retain W7 as a possibility.
Am also thinking about going OpenELEC, but that won't solve the problem of my laptop in the bedroom which serves as my late night media player. NFS not working isn't "critical" for me, I have little/no HD content, nor the desire to use large portions of my NAS's storage to store it, but getting the best performance for the hardware/media I DO own is certainly desirable.
In my pursuit of the ideal setup for myself, I wanted storage for my data I could share on my local network and access outside of my LAN. I also wanted this server to shutdown completely when not accessed and wake from a cold boot when needed. I wanted the best streaming ability available since SMB wasn't working for modern size files anymore and installing ethernet cable all over the place was out of the question. So a decent router was included.
Then I needed something for playback. I used the internal player on the TV for a while but it was primitive and as my movie collection grew, cataloging became impossible. MCE with MediaBrowser was ok but limited. Then I discovered XBMC. A whole new world opened and I caught the bug. So my playback was going to be via a PC through an A/V reciever. A windows PC because I know nothing about Linux and code and SSH and so on and learning was overly complicated for my needs.
I also needed a PC to run small business's, surf, email, home automation and run countless windows softwares for other adventures and then was introduced to audio/video editing. Getting a backed up 3D Blu-Ray to render from file properly was a whole new challenge so the chip was an i7.
In my mind I was going to need a whole bunch of devices which were blends of Windows and Linux. I bought a Raspberry Pi to practice. Afterall, all the forum talk was about Linux based NAS and NFS. There was nothing much about Windows and NFS. So, I embarked on a mission. I'm cheap. Not only did I want everything ecomomically, I wanted my electricity usage kept at a minimum and didn't want tons of equipment stuffed everywhere. The heat generated in my theatre room would also be an issue as well as the noise. That's when I decided to build 1 silent box that did everything and being naive about anything outside of Windows, it was all going to be Windows based.
Enter a modified silverstone htpc case with (9) 4TB HDD's and an SSD, then install the hardware, W7 O/S, etc. Add the modem/router, the TV, and the AVR. Plug in a few USB devices like a printer, some X-10 stuff, and a 10 bay port duplicator for backup and it was time to make it all work.
In the end, I was left with 1 problem. XBMC can playback a 2D iso on a client but not 3D. So any streamed 3D iso will only playback in 2D. So I would stream to an external player triggered by XBMC batch files but it would need to be mounted on a virtual drive and there is the problem. A client served by Hanewin NFS for windows can't map a drive letter and without it there is nothing to mount. So, client devices are limited to 2D playback. Can Alegro do this? I'm writing this and my prior 'book' not to hijack this thread but to confirm there are many ways to skin a cat others might find of interest. I see some talented individuals here that I don't run across often and thought you might be able to shed some light on this problem other than serve from linux etc. Feel free to PM me and if this post is too far off the thread subject it deserves to be removed and I'm ok with that. I feel because this libnfs problem would not exist if not for Windows users, the post describes the importance of it for at least 1 user.
Now my client devices have a new 2nd problem. Artwork or title count due to this libnfs conflict. I thought the custom build http://mirrors.xbmc.org/test-builds/win3...ewin32.exe put everything back to normal at the time I tested it. I installed it again this morning on top of the latest nightly and it didn't work. I get the correct title count, artwork loads for newly scanned items, but existing items show no artwork unless I manually refresh them from the info tab. The newest nightly wouldn't refresh at all and newly scanned items showed nothing either. I suppose I could delete AppData\Roaming\XBMC\userdata\Database folder, but it would take hours to rebuild. Is it worth trying or is this build already deemed non-op? Fwiw, I did install this custom build on top of what was the current nightly when it was made available and all was well. No idea what changed other than installing a nightly on top of it. Thanks for reading my rant.
So basically, people don't use samba for a reason (usually performance), which should be a surprise to no one really.
As far as the XBMC builds, that was explained earlier. Beta2 and newer have a downgraded libnfs that when combined with other post Beta1 code breaks art *if* the artwork files being loaded come from an NFS share (If you refresh and select to use an -online- source, it'll load the art), likewise XBMC uses the Thumbnails folder to cache what it actually displays, and if it's already in there it has no need to load from the NFS share -- and that art will show (which causes some confusion).
Frodo 12.3 and Gotham Beta 1 have the newer libnfs that's compatible with whatever code changes to the artwork stuff that happened between Beta 1 and 2, while Beta 2 has the downgraded version of libnfs (for windows only) that is *not* compatible with said artwork changes/whatever related to that. Unfortunately, the newer one reportedly causes havoc on some users' video libraries.
What you can do to get artwork working on Beta 3 for windows is to simply drop the libnfs.dll file from Beta 1 over Beta 3's. However, if you were having issues with Beta 1 / Frodo 12.3 and your library, those issues would very likely come back. Personally, I've not been able to reproduce the library issues and came in to this over the artwork problems, so I simply use Beta 1's (the newer libnfs) libnfs.dll.
I see. So, if install the latest nightly and replace the libnfs.dll with the 1 from Beta 1 I should be back to normal. Do you have a link to download it so I don't have to install Beta 1 to grab it? I'll test it on my system right now. Never mind. I'll install B1 and get it, then reinstall the nightly.
Although to be honest, I'm glad you trust me -- but typically you wouldn't want to grab a dll file from some random dude (hence the instructions).
Nothing personal but that is why I'm manually getting it myself. Thanks for taking the time though.
Installed 28th nightly and let it scan for new content of which there is none. No artwork.
Replaced with old .dll. All artwork present with no need to refresh. After scan, 'Latest movies' is not showing by date added and appears random with the exception of a couple new titles already scanned from just prior to these changes. I assume as new titles are added, they too will be added to the latest filter. On this client, never used watched status so don't know if that was affected. When selecting an iso from the server to watch on this client, it takes a while to load. It is not waiting for drives to spin up. After a couple minutes it presents the 'Select playback item' pop up and selecting the title renders immediately. Lots of jerky playback and I know in the past, this client rendered smooth with no buffering using the same title. After stopping playback and restarting same title, goes through the same hanging process before popping up the 'Select playback item'. This is all WiFi. Using Ethernet everything is ok. Must be my end.
Thank you garret. Rep point in order.

"A Few Users"? Define A Few? I've not been following the Beta thread all that closely, but I can't help thinking downgrading NFS for the sake of "A Few Users" is a bit of a knee-jerk reaction. Is it even confirmed that those users issues were directly caused by the newer libNFS library?
I entirely agree, but it's already been covered in the thread (see this post). Memphiz does a large amount of work for XBMC, including the majority of NFS support (not sure if all of it, but a lot of it from what I've seen), so give him a break though, okay?


Shanghai-listed flagship unit of China State Shipbuilding Corp expects positive results for 2018 due to large one-off profit.
China CSSC Holdings is expecting to snap a two-year losing streak with a large one-off profit boost saving its stock from suspension on the Shanghai Stock Exchange.
Preliminary figures from the flagship unit of China State Shipbuilding Corp (CSSC) - one of the two largest Chinese state shipbuilding conglomerates - showed its net profit would range between CNY 435m ($64.2m) and CNY 525m in 2018.
CSSC Holdings posted a net loss of CNY 2.3bn in 2017 and CNY 2.6bn in 2016.
Based on Chinese exchange rules, a share is automatically suspended from trading following three consecutive years in the red and delisted after four years of losses.
CSSC Holdings has been plagued by limited newbuilding orders during an industry downturn.
But its 2018 results were boosted by one-off profits totalling CNY 836m, according to exchange filings.
The one-off items were based on a stake sale in a subsidiary to a CSSC affiliate, compensation for land reserves, and government subsidies, CSSC Holdings said.
"In addition, our revenues in 2018 rose marginally from 2017 as the shipbuilding market started to bottom up. And we made some exchange gains due to the appreciation of US dollars against the Chinese yuan," the company said.
CSSC Holdings plans to issue the full, audited results for 2018 on 20 February.
The company owns some of the largest shipyards in China, including Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding and Chengxi Shipyard.

Poster For REACHER Amazon Series Starring ALAN RITCHSON. UPDATE: Trailer
UPDATE: Check out the Trailer for Reacher below!
Originally played by Tom Cruise in the big screen adaptations of Jack Reacher, DC's Titans star Alan Ritchson takes over the role for the small screen.
Reacher is a new series that will see the 6'4" Ritchson in a more accurate interpretation of the title hero.
Get your first look at Alan Ritchson in 'Reacher,' which author Lee Child calls a 'perfect' adaptation. https://t.co/hIVkkZU3VC
— Entertainment Weekly (@EW) December 2, 2021
"When I picture Reacher, let's say you're in a bar or restaurant, the door opens, he steps in, and the temperature in the room drops by a degree, because people think, 'What the hell is this?'" says creator and executive producer Lee Child to Entertainment Weekly.
Regarding Reacher's fighting style, Ritchson stated, "I felt intimidated learning the fight choreography. This fighting style, I was on my heels, wondering if I could pull it off. It's so precise… We rebuilt me as a fighter. Some of the fights that we spent a month and a half learning are just three minutes on screen, but the fans deserve to see somebody move the way that a killing machine like him can."
Reacher premieres on Amazon Prime Video February 4, 2022.

Defending the Faith in a Foreign Land
Posted on March 14, 2018 by Joel Garcia
"When I first heard about Christian Apologetics," says Darryl Record, SGWM missionary in Cambodia, "my initial reaction was, 'I'm not going to apologize for being a Christian!' I had no idea what it meant." I doubt that Darryl is alone in this experience, as we've been trained to view the word "apology" in a very specific light. But Darryl soon learned the true definition of apologetics, and he was hooked on the concept. Bruce Shelley, in his book Church History in Plain Language, says, "the word comes from Greek and means defense, such as a lawyer gives at a trial." Darryl decided to commit the focus of his life to this defense of the faith, a journey that took him from not even knowing what the word meant to eventually receiving his MA in Christian Apologetics from Biola University.
The Record Family: Darryl and Kayo with their son Benjamin
But Darryl wasn't content to remain in the states for his apologetics work, where information and resources already abound. Before receiving his degree from Biola, he had a breakthrough in his relationship with God in which he simply surrendered his all to Christ. He promised not to say "No" to whatever God may ask Him to do. So, God said, in effect, "Go to Cambodia." After a short-term stint, Darryl returned home to finish his education, during which time he met his future wife Kayo, a first-generation Christian from Japan, who also felt a calling to missions. They married in 2004, went out back out on the field in 2007, and haven't looked back since putting their hand to the plow.
Darryl noticed that while there were plenty of gospel resources in Cambodia, there was not much material regarding creationism or evidence for the truth of the Bible. But surely the Cambodian people struggled with the same existential questions that had plagued Darryl earlier in his own life, right? For Darryl personally, he says that at one point in his life there was a "gradual flow of evolution and Biblical criticism that was seeping into my worldview from my public school teachers and later university professors. Little by little my faith was eroded." These problems are not exclusive to western culture. According to Darryl, the Theravada Buddhists of Cambodia "believe that everything came into existence by water, wind, earth, fire, time, and chance." And evolution is pushed hard in schools there, just as it is in the U.S. So Darryl's heart is to not only present the Gospel, but also to gently and respectfully help remove intellectual obstacles in the hearts of the unbelievers there.
Darryl with his Cambodia Bible Institute Apologetics Class
Typically when westerners think of apologetics, we conjure up images of men in suites with lots of letters attached to their names trying to win an argument. But Darryl knows that apologetics is not about winning debates. Especially in the Asian culture he lives in, the focus needs to be on relationship and community, so that is how he approaches his broad range of work in his field in Cambodia. Primarily, he teaches Christian apologetics at a Bible school there, but he has also authored and co-authored two bilingual Christian apologetics books, written scripts for Christian radio programs, and is currently working on an exciting project of producing short evangelistic/apologetics videos in Cambodian. In this wide array of activity, he has mastered how to defend the faith with the gentleness of Christ in the way the Cambodian culture receives it best.
Darryl talking apologetics on the radio
Darryl clearly has his hands full, but he also has a laser-like focus. When asked to sum up his ministry in one sentence, he simply quotes Ephesians 4:12 – "for the equipping of the saints for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ." Or, when put in his own terms, "We seek to equip local Christians to reach their own families and neighbors with confidence in the truth of God's Word." This is a vision that fits right in with SGWM's: training nationals to reach their own people with the gospel in ways a westerner never could. And once he's equipped nationals with the proper tools, they will be ready to, like Darryl, "give an answer to everyone who asks you to give a reason for the hope that you have…. with gentleness and respect." (1 Peter 3:15)


South Bend, Ind., March 22 - Several months ago the grave of Sarah Platts, a young lady who died of consumption, was found disturbed, and an examination showed that the head of the corpse was missing. What led to the discovery was the finding of a human jawbone by Fred Auer, a farmer, who lived near the county graveyard, some eight miles from the city, where the body was buried. The fact that only the head was taken threw suspicions on an amateur phrenologist named Gordon Truesdale. Truesdale occupied a small farm in the vicinity with his wife and family of four girls, the oldest not more than eight years old. He was a handsome, broad-shouldered fellow, with a fair education, but lazy and shiftless. His great hobby was phrenology, and he occasionally lectured on that subject in country school-houses. His ambition to possess a collection of skulls was well known in the neighborhood, and the desecration of the Platts girl's grave was laid at his door, although he was never openly charged with it.
About three weeks ago Truesdale went to a physician and asked if a person could become poisoned in handling a dead body. He received an affirmative reply and appeared to be much troubled. He complained to his wife that his nose was paining him terribly and he believed he was taking the erysipelas. He began doctoring himself with bread-and-milk poultices, but without success. His face began to swell rapidly, and in less than three days it and his head became twice their natural size and lost all semblance to human shape. A physician was called in against the wishes of Truesdale. He found the man suffering terribly. His lips were drawn by the tension of the skin and writhed themselves away from the teeth in unceasing pain. The cuticle across the bridge of the nose and over the forehead was so distended with the mattery substance underneath that it seemed as if it must burst every moment. The eyes were swollen almost to bursting from their sockets and were turned with pain until hardly anything but the whites could be seen. It was evident that a terrible poison was slowly but surely permeating the man's whole system.
The physician, after a careful examination of the unwilling patient, cut open his skin from about the center of his nose almost to the roots of his hair, and then made another across the forehead almost from temple to temple. From these incisions there oozed a mass of loathsome, detestable putrescence, so terrible in its stench that the attendants, save one, ran from the house. Other incisions were made in different parts of the scalp, from which the hair had been shaved, and from these this terribly offensive matter oozed constantly, until the swelling was reduced and the head and face assumed nearly their normal size. Attempts were then made to free the incisions of matter by injecting water into them. It was noticed that when water was forced into the cut in the forehead it poured out of the holes in the scalp. As one of the attendants said, "it seemed as if all the flesh between the skin and bone had turned into corruption and ran out."
The last three days of Truesdale's existence were terrible, not only to himself but to those who watched him. The poison from some corpse (for it is believed he had recently opened several graves,) which was communicated to his system by picking a raw spot on the inside of his nose, appeared to course through every vein in his body. Not only was his person offensive to the eye, but the odor and heat of his breath was so offensive that it was impossible for the attendants to wait on him properly. The breath was so poisonous that when one of the attendants held his hand six inches from the dying man's mouth it stung the flesh like hundreds of nettles. Those who waited on him were obliged to wear gloves, as it was impossible to wash the odor from their hands. The day he died his flesh was so rotten that it seemed as if it would drop from the bones it touched, and his eyes actually decayed until they became sightless.
There were all sorts of devices available in order to protect the corpse from the body snatchers.
The families of the dead tried to purchase robber-proof coffins made with metal. There was a catch, however. Only the very rich owned the land in perpetuity in which they were buried. While their vaults could be secured and reinforced, ordinary people were buried in plots of land that were reused time and again. Thus, wrought iron and metal coffins designed to stave off grave robbers made the practice of recycling bodies in one plot impossible, and many cemeteries began to refuse such reinforced coffins.
In some cases, a very fresh body was required for dissection. If the price was right, some grave robbers took matters into their own hands and murdered a suitable candidate.
I don't get what kind of tissue eating infection he presumably got from the grave robbing? That's one heck of a skin infection, wow! I'm surprised they didn't choose to cremate him instead of burying his body.

Q: What is the difference between `FileDocument` and `ReferenceFileDocument` for `DocumentGroups` in SwiftUI? I'm trying to setup a DocumentGroup in my app, but there's no examples out there yet ReferenceFileDocument is for.  I know what a FileDocument is, but how are ReferenceFileDocuments different.
In the docs all it says is:

Conformance to ReferenceFileDocument is expected to be thread-safe,
and deserialization and serialization will be done on a background
thread.

A: There's a hint in the name:  ReferenceFileDocument is a document that's a reference type (ie, a class).  FileDocument is for a struct based document.
This has an effect on how documents are saved because SwiftUI can just make a copy of the reference type and save it without worrying about you coming along and modifying it during the save, since it's a value type or tree of value types.
With ReferenceFileDocument, there also doesn't seem to be a clear way for the SwiftUI to know when to save, so it depends on you telling it.  There's no direct "doc is dirty, save it now" method, so the way you inform SwiftUI that you've done something that requires saving is through the undo manager.
You also need to provide a snapshot method to return a copy of the document that's safe for it to save.
final class QuizDocument: ReferenceFileDocument, ObservableObject {

    @Published var quiz: QuizTemplate

    init(quiz: QuizTemplate) {
        self.quiz = quiz
    }

    static var readableContentTypes: [UTType] { [.exampleText] }

    init(configuration: ReadConfiguration) throws {
        guard let data = configuration.file.regularFileContents,
              let quiz = try? JSONDecoder().decode(QuizTemplate.self, from: data)
        else {
            throw CocoaError(.fileReadCorruptFile)
        }

        self.quiz = quiz
    }

    // Produce a snapshot suitable for saving. Copy any nested references so they don't
    // change while the save is in progress.
    func snapshot(contentType: UTType) throws -> QuizTemplate {
        return self.quiz
    }

    // Save the snapshot
    func fileWrapper(snapshot: QuizTemplate, configuration: WriteConfiguration) throws -> FileWrapper {
        let data = try JSONEncoder().encode(quiz)
        return .init(regularFileWithContents: data)
    }
}

A: ReferenceFileDocument is a document type that will auto-save in the background. It is notified of changes via the UndoManager, so in order to use it you must also make your document undo-able.
The only mention I see of it in the docs is here.
Here is a working example.
