So, Australia Now Has Its Own Cryptocurrency
We now have a currency that's being referred to as our first legit 'dollerydoo'.
Aussie cryptocurrency 'strayacoin' was launched on January 26 with a beer can, thongs and 'yeah nah' included in its logo.
Jack Hurley, chief executive of 47.com.au, told 9 News that strayacoin allows the Australian public to get on board with cryptocurrency quite easily.
The website reads: "Strayacoin is a fair dinkum, decentralised, mate-to-mate digital Dollarydoo that you can use to pay Davo back after a trip to the servo."
The company encourages anyone interested to start mining using "any shitty PC or laptop".
Exactly 24,809,843 strayacoins exist to reflect every Australian man, woman and child, based on ABS stats on Australia Day, 2018.
Strayacoin's logo, designed by Aaron Tyler, contains a bunch of Aussie references, including 'G'day Mate', 'You're The Voice' and 'Shrimp On The Barbie'.
The beer can at the centre of the logo is flanked by a loop of thongs, naturally.

I'm going to use Internet Explorer 10 as my primary browser for one week. That's one week without browsing, tweeting, or listening to turntable in Chrome (current "Browser of Choice"). That's one week deep inside the bowels of the browser that burned me, and so many of my peers, so badly over the last decade. One week in the heart of the beast.
Why? Isn't Internet Explorer supposed to be a thing of the past? A bad phase in the history of the web that we're slowly recovering from? The faint image of the broken internet from yesterday, replaced by far more standards-compliant browsers like Firefox and Chrome? Well, yes, and no.
If I'm honest with myself, and everybody else, it's not the browser that burned me. Internet Explorer dominated the market back in the day when I got excited to see 3kb/sec downloads. It was installed along side Netscape Navigator, but won me over pretty quickly.
The browser won a lot of people over, including corporations who went on to develop internal applications that depended on its implementation of HTML, CSS, and J(ava)Script. And then the world changed around them; around all of us.
Dial-up was becoming a thing of the past, and new browsers were creeping into the scene. Firefox rose like a phoenix from the ashes of Netscape, and then Google got into the game with Chrome. These later browsers took advantage of faster and more consistent connections and offered streamlined updates that happened silently in the background.
Internet Explorer was still dominating in the global market, but these antiquated versions from yesteryear were still in circulation, and still being actively used. While they were once the apple of our eye, we quickly jumped from them to the new breed of browsers. It wasn't that Internet Explorer 3-8 were bad – they weren't. It was the fact that the world around them changed, and changed quickly.
Fast forward to Internet Explorer 10; it is new, and has great support for standards. Most importantly though, it hints at having the capacity to auto-upgrade like its competition. So I was curious, do I have any reason to dislike Internet Explorer any longer? Is it just as good as Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, or Opera? What better way to find out than to use it as my primary Browser of Choice for one week.
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
It's really tough retraining my mind to click my Internet Explorer icon instead of my Chrome icon. The icon that was once relegated to testing and debugging my code in yesterday's browser is now my go-to destination for all casual browsing, tweeting, and more.
So far I've been using Internet Explorer for Bootstrap work, blogging from WordPress, Tweeting with TweetDeck, Facebook, and casual browsing online. While I didn't spend much time in the browser today, I did do some tweeting from @tweetdeck's web-application, and noticed that the scrollbars are pretty horrible looking – so I fixed them. Left and right for before and after.
Unfortunately it appears Twitter has neglected Internet Explorer when they developed their dark-theme. While they fixed up the styles for the scrollbar in WebKit, they failed to do anything remotely similar in Internet Explorer. I've notified them (and might have gotten their attention), so let's hope they get word and make these changes. You can make similar changes in your applications using scrollbar-face-color and related properties (See the "see also" section on the previous link).
I must admit, it would be awesome if we could control the properties of the scrollbar by setting properties on a pseudo-element instead of on any element that scrolls. It's worth noting that in this territory, there currently is no w3c-accepted standard.
IE uses a proprietary extension in the form of prefixed-properties, and WebKit uses a proprietary extension in the form of prefixed-pseudo-elements. One can only hope there will be a consensus and convergence in implementation.
No Case of the Mundays
Today was my first actual day of work in Internet Explorer. I mean, I've opened it up here and there during work in the past, but today I spent all of my time in Internet Explorer – and it went well. Nothing broke (that I noticed), nothing was complicated, all was well.
I did work on a CSS example for somebody today only to have them say "the antialiasing sucks," but as it turned out they were viewing in Chrome, and I was viewing in Internet Explorer. Sure enough, if you create a hard-edge on an angled CSS gradient, it looks better in Internet Explorer than it does in Chrome. Here's a quick comparison between Chrome 25 and Internet Explorer 10.
This particular gradient is 25deg – oddly enough, Chrome draws a beautifully-smooth line when the gradient is changed to 45deg rather than 25deg. Don't ask me why – I haven't the slightest clue.
OMG, Tuesday!
Wow, so today was a big day. When I started this blog post I was a little bummed that the only people able to take the IE Challenge would be those who have purchased Windows 8, or a machine that came loaded with Windows 8. This morning at 6am PST, the IEBlog announced Internet Explorer 10 for Windows 7!
On to my day though – today was spent largely in Google Docs. I noticed there were some small layout differences between Chrome and IE. For instance, the number of characters you can fit on one line before a wrap occurs differs in Chrome than it does in IE. This was particularly bothersome since one of my templates features right-aligned text left-padded with enough spaces to complete a full line of characters. All of these characters are then set with a dark background color.
I wound up taking an alternative route, replacing this approach with a single-cell single-row table, and setting the background color of the cell instead of the background color of the text. This was far better and gave far more consistent results between IE and Chrome. No clue who is to blame, or what was the means by which both browsers diverged from one another, but Chrome appeared to hold itself together better overall when it came to Google Docs.
Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday
So at this point it's just difficult to find things to blog about. I instinctively click on the and go straight to my browsing. I don't experience any issues with my favorite sites. I tweet using TweetDeck, check in with Mom on facebook, drop images into imgur, broadcast using Google Hangouts, manage a channel on YouTube, help out where possible on StackOverflow, and blog about all of it here in WordPress – no issues. Everything just works.
I don't mean to give the impression that there isn't any work to be done – there is, a lot. Sadly, while the Internet Explorer developers have been doing an amazing job with their product, we (the community) need to step up our game as well. We've got to start writing better code, and paying attention to language specifications and APIs, as well as the ways in which they're implemented in various browsers.
I came across another "my site doesn't work in IE" thread today. The website popped up in Quirks mode. Changing it to Standards didn't magically fix it (as it does from time to time). Instead, pushing it to Standards mode resulted in an even more damaged experience.
The problem here was written all over the Source: apathy, carelessness, and so much more. We aren't teaching passion for our craft today as well as we should. We teach people how to hammer out some markup, and then encourage them to feed off of the visual presentation, rather than the compliance to the specification (too). New developers code, and refresh, code, and refresh. Rarely, if ever, making a trip to w3.org.
In early 2012 I came across a rather iconic website that was rendering well in Chrome and Firefox, but the side-bar navigation (made up of lists within lists) was severely broken in Internet Explorer 9. The problem wound up being an unclosed list item; I modified the response in Fiddler, issued a new request in IE9, and the page magically worked. This designer tested their markup in a browser that deviated from what the code explicitly requested (nasty nesting), and instead did what it thought the designer intended. While this resulted in the proper formatting, it breaks the web.
This was something I grew to appreciate in Internet Explorer 9 – it was brutally honest. You got what you asked for (generally speaking), and when your document was looking ugly, it was because your code was telling it to. Other browsers would implement a dose of speculation into its rendering process, which adds far too much variability to the web.
Not Perfect, But Better
A week of using Internet Explorer as your primary browser convinces me of at least two things: 1) Microsoft has come a long way with their product, and it deserves a second look. And 2) There's still work to be done. While surfing the web on Internet Explorer 10 doesn't feel like sucking on broken glass, it still leaves some areas for improvement.
I try to be a little less critical about massive software, given the enormous complexity to create, develop, and maintain it, but there are areas where Internet Explorer 10 can be improved. I come across these items from time to time, and try to create simplified reproducible examples when possible to share with others (and with whomever I have access to within Microsoft). One such issue is the :hover bug related to table-rows. You can see this online at http://jsfiddle.net/jonathansampson/FCzyf/show/ (Tested in Internet Explorer 10 on Windows 8 only).
Even with its flaws, Internet Explorer is still leading the way in other areas. It's currently one of the only browsers to support pseudo-element animation, the Pointer model (though you can get 'Pointium'), and some CSS level 4 text properties.
My biggest concern lately is not with the browser itself, Microsoft has convinced me that their product is reliable. What concerns me lately is with the release cycles. Can they keep this new browser breathing, or are they going to continue resuscitating it on a bi-annual cycle? If so, we'll quickly find the web moving out ahead of it again, and history will repeat itself. I find a glimmer of hope in the newest "About Internet Explorer" dialog.
In my sincere opinion, Internet Explorer (in just a few years) went from being the bane of my existence (#somuchdrama), to being a bright luminary, back competing in the pack of modern browsers. Will it stay among the pack? Time will tell. Until then, welcome back Internet Explorer.
Download Internet Explorer 10, give it a week, and post your results below.

Helicopters were once billed as an alternative to fixed-wing aircraft, especially as a short-haul airliner – but noise, vibration and fuel-efficiency got in the way. Can a radical re-design turn things around?
When helicopters first appeared in our skies in the 1950s, they were touted as the transport of the future; an aircraft which could take off and land in a car park or the roof of a building and fly us high above our traffic-clogged streets.
Congested roads and airways would be a thing of the past, the thinking went. Fleets of helicopters could whisk us safely and efficiently to our destinations. But helicopters proved to have their drawbacks. They are much less fuel-efficient than planes. They are noisy, and vibrations make them uncomfortable to travel in.
In the meantime, fixed-wing aircraft won out. Conventional planes can carry larger loads faster and further than helicopters, and in more comfort for passengers. But they require long runways and therefore, bigger airports.
At London's Heathrow, for instance, a plane uses the runway every 30 seconds or so. Airports like these are bad neighbours; noisy and polluting, and have to be situated some way outside city centres, adding to travel time. And we need more and more of them.
If helicopters can be re-designed, then they might provide an alternative, cutting congestion and opening the skies to us all.
"They could operate at heliports constructed at other transport centres, like train stations or on top of freeways" says Carl Russell, an aerospace engineer at Nasa Ames Research Center.
Nasa may be best known for space exploration, but its aeronautics division is doing some cutting-edge research into a new generation of air travel. Their mission is to "solve the challenges in the air transportation system: air traffic congestion, safety, and environmental impacts."
'Compound aircraft' have been investigated in the past, for direct city-centre-to-city-centre travel, but with little success. In the 1950s, the British-built Fairey Rotodyne was developed as a kind of flying bus. It had a conventional-rotor for vertical flight, and two propellers on stubby wings for horizontal flight.
It showed promise, but development was cut mainly due to politics and cost-cutting. Test flights highlighted a number of engineering challenges, in particular the noise from a jet air system used to power the rotors.
Now Nasa designers are using tilt-rotor technology to design a machine that will carry around 90 passengers and travel 1,000 miles (1,600km).
The Large Civil Tilt Rotor (LCTR) looks like a plane, but with two huge rotors at the end of each wing instead of small propellers. For take-off and landing those rotors are parallel to the ground just as in a helicopter. Then during flight, they swivel forwards to act like huge propellers. "The entire nacelle [the streamlined engine housing] at the wingtip will actually tip forward with the rotors," says Russell.
Right now it's an engineering concept, and Nasa are doing wind tunnel tests of various components.
The LCTR is designed to work using existing infrastructure. That means it could use airports, but not clog up runways. Short and medium-length trips could be taken on a tilt-rotor, leaving just the long-haul flights using large fixed-wing aircraft.
Need for speed
Another major drawback of helicopters has been their speed, or rather lack of it. Compared to fixed wing aircraft, helicopters are the snails of the sky.
The limit for a conventional helicopter – big rotor on top, small rotor at the back - is somewhere in the region of 170-190 knots (315-350km/h or 185 to 220 mph). The LCTR is designed to fly at 300 knots (555 km/h), which is a significant increase in speed.
"That's why we have to go to these different type of configurations because you're just not going to get it with a conventional design," says Russell.
But to build an even faster helicopter is going to take another huge leap in engineering.
The way conventional helicopters are built makes it almost impossible for them to fly very fast. Their spinning blades slice through the air and work like the wings of a plane, generating lift. Unlike wings, however, the blades don't provide equal lift on both sides. As a blade on one side moves forward, a blade on the other side is moving backwards. When a helicopter starts to speed up, this difference becomes more serious. Air passing over the blade moving in the same direction as the helicopter travels faster than it does over the opposite blade. It is a problem known as retreating blade stall.
But with radical redesign, helicopters are capable of being speed demons. Sikorsky, a helicopter maker based in Florida, holds the record for the fastest helicopter flight. Its X2 concept flew at over 250 knots (460 km/h) in 2010. The X2 uses two counter-rotating rotors, meaning two rotors stacked on top of each other, spinning in opposite directions. That means there is an equal amount of lift being generated on each side.
Another advantage of the design is that engineers can remove the tail rotor, which is usually needed to stop the helicopter spinning around. That gave them extra room for a propeller at the back.
Steve Weiner, Sikorsky's Director of Engineering Sciences, and was chief engineer on the X2 programme. "The concept has been around since the late 1960s," he says. It was originally tested on an aircraft called the XH59A. "That aircraft went pretty fast (238 knots/440 km/h) but it vibrated very badly, it was very noisy and it used a lot of fuel. It also needed two pilots to operate it," he says. "There were enough controls that they had both hands, both feet, and anything else available operating controls!"
Advances in computing and 'fly-by-wire' flight systems have made the craft much easier to fly, and the proof of the design is in the world speed record. The double rotors mean no retreating blade stall, and a much smoother and quieter ride. Now the team is working on a next generation helicopter incorporating the technology.
It will take 15 years or more before we see these ideas in everyday operation, but the people working on them believe they can give us what we, the passengers, demand; safety, efficiency and comfort. "If you're trying to fly around passengers, they are certainly not going to fly on something that is shaking like crazy and rattling their teeth," Russell says.

The richest, most developed and most organised growing; the mega world city Lahore's development has stopped, Punjab development and infrastructure has completely stopped, the period of destruction and chaos has began....no electricity, water, and big power problems are norm: the total chaos and destabilization has started.
Division of Punjab and Armed Forces is part of plan for disintegration of Pakistan
By Usman Khalid, Director Rifah Institute of Foreign affairs (RIFA)
In an article titled 'A mutiny Grows in the Punjab', Anatol Lieven (author of Pakistan: A Hard Country) wrote the following:
"The U.S. strategy toward Pakistan has been focussed on trying to get Islamabad to give serious help to Washington's campaign against the Afghan Taliban. There are two rather large problems with this approach. The first is that it is never going to happen because Pakistani strategic calculations and the feelings of the country's population make it impossible…. except in return for U.S. help against India—which Washington also cannot deliver.
"The second problem is that it gets America's real priorities in the region back to front. The war in Afghanistan is a temporary U.S. interest, in which the chief concern is not the reality of victory or defeat as such (if only because neither can be clearly defined) but preserving some appearance of success in order to avoid the damage to American military prestige that would result from obvious failure. By contrast, preserving the Pakistani state and containing the terrorist threat to the West from Pakistan is a permanent vital interest not only of the U.S. military and political establishments but of every American citizen.
"While the prospects for any real success in Afghanistan look gloomy, but if saving Pakistan is the real priority, then things do not look so desperate. This is because while getting large numbers of Pakistanis to help America is virtually impossible, getting enough Pakistanis to preserve their existing state is much easier. To a great extent, this is for negative reasons: the elites and indeed the masses have an acute sense of the horror from the country's collapse. However, a degree of positive loyalty is also present in one key institution and in one key province: namely the military and the Punjab. If Pakistan is to be broken as a state, it will be on the streets of Lahore and other great Punjabi cities, not in the Pashtun mountains."
Unlike US think tanks and most American writers, who subjectively project Indo-Zionist interests in the region, Anatol Lieven is British, and objective. His article was published nearly two years ago in 'National Interest' of March-April 2011, A lot has changed since; Britain has assumed a central role in resolving the Afghan imbroglio and it is the view of Anal Lieven that appears to have prevailed. Disintegration of Pakistan is still on the agenda but it is hoped it will follow rather than precede heightened Civil War in Afghanistan that is likely to result from NATO/US withdrawal.
Pakistan has been ruled by a four party coalition for five years – Zardari League, MQM, ANP and JUI(F) – all of who have a history of opposition to Pakistan. President Asif Ali Zardari is the head of the PPP although his spoilt son – Bilawal – is formally the chairman of the Party. The father of Asif Zardari – Hakim Ali – was the President of ANP in Sindh after he was expelled from the PPP allegedly for trying to blackmail late Prime Minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto (ZAB). No one has revealed why was ZAB being blackmailed but it is well known that he was so angry with Hakim Ali that he sold all his assets and moved to the UK only to return after the execution of ZAB.
The relationship Asif Zardari with his wife Benazir was characterised by the Hollywood film 'sleeping with the enemy'. But my point here is not their marital relationship; my point is that Asif Zardari has strong nerves; he has lived a life with dangerous briefs. For securing US sponsorship of the NRO, every one has wondered: "what is the quid pro quo that the USA still wants from Asif Zardari and re-election of Musharaff even?"
It appears that Asif Zardari and Haqqani signed up to disintegration of Pakistan. He has been tasked to destroy the two institutions that hold Pakistan together: 1) the armed forces and 2) the Punjab.
The Memo written by Pakistan's Ambassador Hussain Haqqani at the behest of President Zardari to the US Government revealed how AZ intended to undermine the command structure of the armed forces on the pretext of 'civilian control'. Now he has launched a scheme for the division of the Punjab only weeks before the installation of a 'care-taker administration'. The constitutional amendment proposed by his press secretary – Senator Farhatullah Babar is unlikely to be passed but it indicates the array of forces being assembled to secure the nefarious ends.
In not understanding the nature of enemy schemes and being so inadequate in articulating viable popular opposition the PML(N) and TIP share equal blame. India has for decades funded opposition to Kalabagh Dam and promoting Seraiki province.
Disintegration of Pakistan has been at the top of Indian agenda since 1947. There should have been no doubt left after the invasion and separation of East Pakistan in 1971. But the very same political parties that are in the ruling coalition today were at the helm in West Pakistan in 1971. Their leaders readily embraced the Indian propaganda that East Pakistan separated because of 'maltreatment' by the Punjabis. Ever since, the Punjab has been the favourite whipping boy – blamed for every real or imagined grievance. But the leaders of Punjab have never flinched from making a sacrifice in any inter-provincial deal – the recent finance award as well as the Water Accord of 19991. But the Indian propaganda continues to be mouthed by President Zardari and his coalition partners.
Not content with the Punjab giving in to every demand of cut in its legitimate share, the Zardari Administration is now embarked on Sheikh Mujib style campaign of subversion supplemented by direct attacks on the military and the integrity of the Punjab province. The 2008 announcement of cancellation of the Kalabagh Dam, the 18th Amendment to the Constitution, and now the Freudian Slip, attempt to separate the BJP (Bahawalpur Janubi Punjab) from the Punjab, are all a part of the same plan. Mian Nawaz Sharif does not appear to understand how diabolical the scheme is. His party came up with a proposal to carve out three provinces instead of two. PML(N) get no votes – just ridicule and disgust. The people and politicians of Sindh have been wiser in understanding that the real reason for the new Local Bodies Ordinance is to give Indian protégés – the MQM – perpetual control over not just Karachi but all the urban centres of Sindh. Are the Punjabis so dim that they cannot understand the real intent behind the proposed division of the Punjab?
In Pakistan, land has always belonged to the provinces but river water is owned by the federation. This is a sensible division that has stood the test of time. Large reservoirs of water in dams have been built and operated by the federal government but the barrages and the canals have been owned and operated by the provincial governments. Kalabagh Dam is an exception because it is a dam as well as a barrage. Its right bank canal would irrigate DIK area of South KPK, and the left Bank canal would irrigate the area between Rivers Indus and Jhelum. The reservoir would serve the interest of South Punjab and Sindh Province as Sindh gets 37% of the water of any reservoir built on River Indus. Tarbela Dam, built in the KPK has increased supply of irrigation water at Sukhar as well Kotri barrages. Kalabagh Dam would be even more beneficial to Sindh because it would conserve huge amount of extra water from all the tributaries of River Indus down stream of Tarbela and hill torrents that have caused death and destruction in South Punjab.
Kalabagh Dam is so detested by India because it would link all the provinces of Pakistan into a nationwide irrigation system. Farhatullah Babar included the Districts of Mianwali and Bhakkar in BJP in his proposal. The people of the two districts understood his intent and protested. Thy understood that it would imply that the only dam in the Punjab – the Kalabagh Dam – would be located outside the province. Farhatullah Babar proposal undermines the link canals and the entire irrigation system of the Punjab but the real reason is more sinister. The BJP locked into disputes with Punjab in perpetuity would be sight for sore hostile eyes.
The fiendish scheme has escaped the attention of Imran Khan and Nawaz Sharif but that may not be ignored by the farmers and irrigation experts. However, India and its protégés in Pakistan have good reasons for hope; if the benefits of Kalabagh Dam to Sindh can be sold as damaging because the Dam would also benefit the Punjab, why the damage to Multan and Bahawalpur be sold as beneficial merely because the rest of the Punjab disapproves of the division of the Punjab.
The reason why the Indo-Zionist lobby wants the division of the Punjab is the one given by Anatol Lieven: "If Pakistan is to be broken as a state, it will be on the streets of Lahore and other great Punjabi cities, not in the Pashtun mountains."
East Pakistan was the largest province of Pakistan until 1971 but its people were not able to see the benefits in the union. It split from Pakistan and is forever reduced to the status of a vassal state of India. The Punjabis are 60% of the Pakistani nation now. As noted by Anatol Lieven, they see the vital need for maintaining the union and the Army is willing and able to defend every part of Pakistan.
The only way Pakistan may not succeed in maintaining the integrity of the federation is that the political process brings a Boris Yeltsin to power and the armed forces are too discredited or demonised to resists threats to national integrity. Pakistan has had a Boris Yeltsin in the shape of Asif Zardari in power for five years but the military has maintained national cohesion despite him. But that would not last forever. Military needs reforms in the institution itself from the Sepoy to the senior most General positions, it needs to reform its policies, improve institutional structures, increase cohesion, more efficiency and effectiveness through a vast analysis, modern methods and detailed critical study within the three defense forces and intelligence organisations.
The enemies hope that Mian Nawaz Sharif would play the role of blunderbuss Boris even better. And warn of the schemes of the London based Altaf Hussain. Wake up before its too late and division of Pakistan made. Pakistan is not out of the woods yet.

Could Oilers do something unthinkable with the Sam Gagner trade?
The Oilers traded Sam Gagner to Tampa for RW Teddy Purcell on Sunday and in Tampa it appears that Gagner may be placed on waivers on Monday for the sake of a buyout.
It seems strange to buyout a player with the potential upside of Gagner and playing alongside Stamkos, Gagner could be a 65-70 point player. But stranger things have happened.
Tampa is flooded with forwards and Yzerman has said he'd be looking to clear space. Calculating Purcells, buyout means the Lightning would have been stuck with a $1.5 million cap hit. If they buyout Gagner, it's a much more reasonable number at $633k.
Now imagine this...
What if Mac-T and Yzerman had that conversation and Yzerman let it be known that Gagner would be placed on waivers tomorrow. Only Florida and Buffalo would be in front of the Oilers on a waiver claim.
Now it's risky because I could see both teams loving to pick up Gagner at a cap number that wouldn't hurt either club. But, if he falls to Edmonton. Would the Oilers reclaim him?
We know that Mac-T likely had more than one trade lined up, or at least had a couple options. Could he realistically make the second trade too? -- trading one player twice in under 48 hours? I've never heard of it before and don't really know if the NHL allows it.
Can a player be traded after being picked up on waivers? I think there are rules to it, that a player must play at least a certain amount of games or be on the roster for a certain amount of time before being able to trade that waiver claimed player.
But, what if Edmonton would be happy taking Gagner back? Could they have gotten Purcell for nothing? Adding a proven RW NHL player with experience and a 65 point season under his belt for free?
That would be something...

Defying the Odds
Nearly two-and-a-half years ago, doctors said little Alex Wilcox might never advance beyond a six-month-old level... Just look at him now!
When Leah Wilcox picked up her fair-haired, 11-month-old son, Alex, at day care, she knew something was terribly wrong.
"Suddenly, he couldn't move his arms, his hands were like flippers," she says, recalling that day in May 2007. "Typically he would read books on the way home from day care, but when I handed him one of his favorite books, he couldn't turn the pages. I was freaking out."
Panic-stricken, Leah and her husband Blake rushed Alex to the emergency room. "Alex was very listless," she says. "The expression on his face was confusion and fear."
When tests failed to show anything abnormal, Alex was airlifted down to The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia where he was admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit. Still, a diagnosis was hard to come by. Several days of heart-rending uncertainty passed before Leah and Blake learned their son had an autoimmune disease called transverse myelitis. Alex's body was turning on itself, attacking the protective coating on the spinal cord that covers nerve cell fibers.
After nearly a week in the pediatric intensive care unit, Alex was transferred to a pediatric inpatient rehabilitation facility in Philadelphia where he had his first birthday. At the time, no such facility existed in the Lehigh Valley (Today, the Good Shepherd Rehabilitation Hospital Pediatric Unit would be an ideal location for Alex to receive acute rehabilitation care). Leah stayed with Alex during the entire month he was hospitalized while Blake made the 140-mile round-trip commute from their home in Northampton every other night after work to visit.
"It was one of the most lonely and isolating experiences of my whole life," Leah says. "I just felt so isolated from my family and the rest of the world."
Leah and Blake were told that Alex might never advance beyond a six-month level. Determined to give their little boy the best possible chance, when Alex came home in June 2008, his parents started him right away in Good Shepherd's outpatient pediatric program where he still comes four days a week for physical and occupational therapy.
"He had to start from zero again," Leah says. "In the beginning, he couldn't even lift his head. Now he can ride a scooter standing up, he can ride a bicycle, he can walk backwards, he can dance like you wouldn't believe. And he loves to play with his electronic drum set. He's going to be a fantastic drummer some day."
Leah and Blake are deeply grateful for the family of therapists in Good Shepherd's pediatric program who have brought Alex so far. A happy and active three-year-old, Alex attends an early intervention program at elementary school which he just loves. "Everything he's gained back, he's gotten at Good Shepherd," Leah says. "We're just seeing leaps and bounds. He's still having milestones. I could cry. This was a child whose doctors once said would never walk or advance beyond the six-month level. He's a champ and a half!"
For more information on Good Shepherd's programs and services, call 1-888-44-REHAB (73422) or contact us.

# Security Fixes
* New: Exception handling privilege escalation on Guest Operating System This release addresses a security vulnerability in exception handling. Improper setting of the exception code on page faults might allow for local privilege escalation on the guest. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2009-2267 to this issue.
* New: Directory Traversal Vulnerability on Linux-based hosts This release addresses a directory traversal vulnerability that is present on host systems and that may allow for remote retrieval of any file from the host system. In order to send a malicious request, the attacker will need to have access to the network on which the host resides. The issue is present on Linux-based hosts only, not on Windows-based hosts. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2009-3733 to this issue.
# Miscellaneous
* Disk Stress Test fails with data corruption error
WLK DiskStress test fails with data corruption error on LSI Logic virtual device.
* Server 2.0.1 does not allow vmnet-bridge service to be run in the foreground
The vmnet-bridge service has a parameter -d for putting it in daemon mode. Without using the -d parameter, the vmnet-bridge service should be able to run in the foreground. This was not working. This issue is resolved in this release.

Strictly speaking, robotics, drones, automated telephone calling and autonomous (driverless) cars are only tangentially related. They all work without human intervention and utilize tools such as machine-to-machine (M2M) sensors, artificial intelligence and advanced imaging.
At a higher level, the key is that they replace something that most folks probably intuitively feel wouldn't be replaced: intelligence for a conversation, eyes and muscles for driving, a way of getting products from a distribution point to a buyer, and an exoskeleton for locomotion.
And, at an even higher level, they are all a bit creepy.

FL-SRJ 1218 - Religious Freedom Bill
"...The Senate Judiciary committee approved a bill that would effectively tear down the separation of church and state in Florida. On a party line vote of 5 to 2, the Senate Judiciary Committee approved SRJ 1218 - the Religious Freedom bill and sent it on to the Committee on Children, Families and Elder Affairs. Members of Americans United for Separation of Church and State (AU) in Florida have mobilized against the passage of this bill and it's companion H 1471 where it is scheduled for a hearing in the House Judiciary Committee tomorrow.
SJR 1218, which was sponsored by Sen. Thad Altman (R-Melbourne) and endorsed by the entire Republican caucus, would delete a constitutional provision that bars Florida from spending public revenues on sectarian religious organizations. Supporters of the bill claim that prohibiting government from funding religious groups discriminates against religious groups."

Conley Cheek
Conley Cheek, who passed away in August 2009, was like a grandfather to all of us in Fleetwood of Ashe County. A decorated war hero, he was a survivor of Pearl Harbor. When he married, his wife had a log cabin built by her great-grandfather. He numbered the logs, took them apart piece by piece and moved them to their property here in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
"Back when I was a boy," he said one time, "everyone had a patch of land and raised buckwheat. The Hartzogs owned a gristmill and the '40 flood took it. Over yonder on the South Fork they buried that apple tree in pine-sap, and those timber cutters let trees fall on it. So I went over there with a chainsaw and cut them away so it could grow. In winter the gobblers go off together, and the hens roost in these river chestnuts."

Recently, I solved a genealogical mystery that I'd had for many, many years. As fellow genealogists, you can imagine how immensely satisfying this was. The solution utilized many tools, but black newspapers and the ease with which we can now search some of them deserves the biggest praise for solving the puzzle. My friend Tim Pinnick, who offers a class in newspapers at Family Tree University and a free e-newsletter, has been preaching and teaching about black newspapers for years. He has even written a book on the topic, which I would highly recommend for your personal library.
The puzzle starts in Hardin County, TN, where one branch of my research is centered. The 1880 census showed two black men named "James Holt", around the same age. One was living with his brother, one was newly married and living with his wife. For years I thought they were the same man, and the census taker had made an error. Only through deed records did I realize they were different men. The marriage of the 2nd James was not shown in marriage records, but his wife is listed in the land records when he is selling land, thus delineating him from the other James, who had a different wife at the same time. To further confuse—the 2nd James married the sister of the wife of the 1st James. But I digress.
About 4 years ago, I found this 2nd James living in Obion County, TN in 1900. I was pretty sure it was the same man (his kids had names like Phlenarie, Ferdinand & Ollie), but he had a different wife (Alora). His occupation was listed as a minister. And that's where my trail ran cold—again. I simply could never find him again and realized he was probably moving a lot with the church. This is the 1900 entry for him & his family:
A family relative had saved oral history, pictures & other memorabilia with regard to this family. One photo showed a well-dressed black couple labeled "Mr. and Mrs. George and Ollie Knucklis."
A separate postcard was addressed to "Aunt Nannie" and was signed Ollie. Perhaps this Ollie was the daughter of James Holt listed in the 1900 census? That hunch turned out to be right. The photographer's studio from the picture was located in Chattanooga. It is there in 1930, and 1910 that I found the couple living. However, in 1920 I found them in Indianapolis, IN (Ollie was misspelled as Dollie). Hmm.
I used the Indiana records at Familysearch.org (marriage & death) to try to look for Ollie or any of her siblings in Indianapolis & I found a Ferdinand Holt who looked promising as her brother. Ancestry had indexed the Indianapolis Star newspaper, and a search in that paper turned up a court case (my specialty) between George & Ollie Knucklis. James Holt was listed next to Ollie's name—could that be her father? It had not occurred to me to look for him in Indianapolis. I don't know why–I suppose I was focused on the children by now.
A census search for him found a James Holt, born in TN, living in Indianapolis in 1920 & 1930 but the wife is different (now Harriet) and his occupation is lawyer. Well, this couldn't be the man I was looking for—he was a minister after all…right? Short answer, of course it was him. My GenealogyBank subscription finally got put to good use, and I searched the black newspaper The Indianapolis Freemen which is archived on the site. Searching James Holt (and later J.M. Holt) turned up numerous articles on this popular, politically active man. I learned that he had been a prominent minister—then went to law school at Central in Louisville & became a lawyer! A profile in the paper even turned up a picture of him—genealogy solid gold:
Articles described his ministry in other states (he was all over the place) including his stint in Jacksonville, FL which is where he was in the 1910 census. I was able to eventually find his subsequent marriages and also his death certificate in Indianapolis. The marriage record for his son Ferdinand made everything conclusive when it noted his parents were James Holt and Mintha Barnes. Wow.
Part of what also helped is simply growing in my analytical skills over the years. I don't think I could have solved this five years ago. I wrote up a five-page PDF file of this research and my approach to solving it, if you're interested email me and I'll send you a copy.
This is the part of genealogy that just makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up! The story the newspapers outlined about this James Holt—the son of an enslaved woman—was fascinating. Without the Indianapolis Freemen newspaper, I would never have realized this was the same person…there were just too many changes. Just another chapter I have reclaimed from the annals of our precious often-times lost history.

The President Takes a Selfie, and Michelle Obama is Having None of it
Maybe it's just the timing of these photos and the power of photography, or maybe Michelle Obama is just really really not going to put up with the POTUS's behavior at the Nelson Mandela memorial service. Speaking of which, there's a narrative you can probably craft based on these photos here:
Likely that narrative is "Barack Obama got up to pee and Michelle stole his spot" but the alternative is just a bit more entertaining.

The National Cattlemen's Beef Association (NCBA) launched its new website during the 2011 Cattle Industry Summer Conference in Kissimmee, Fla., today, Aug. 2, 2011.
The organization's website, www.beefusa.org, was given a facelift, according to NCBA CEO Forrest Roberts. He said the new site is intended to be a resource for cattlemen, media and anyone interested in NCBA, agricultural policy and other information related to the U.S. cattle industry.
"As the oldest and largest national organization representing cattle producers, it is important for our presence online to be impactful by providing useful and timely information that can be located effortlessly," said Roberts.
"Our previous site was outdated and in need of an overhaul in order to serve cattlemen and women more effectively, while also providing news and information to agribusiness, policymakers, consumers and media."
The website is planned as a support mechanism for the association and hosts a range of interactive and informative features for a very broad and diverse audience — ranging from cattlemen to media.
The website has been designed to make all of the services offered at NCBA easy to find and understand.
The section on "Issues" lists the array of policy issues by category impacting cattlemen and women from environment to cattle marketing.
The "Political Action" section allows cattlemen to easily identify sponsored legislation that could help or harm their operations and also provides a quick and easy means of contacting policymakers.
Cattlemen can also find out how their elected leaders voted on a particular issue.
The "Industry Information" section provides cattle industry statistics, NCBA's Cattle Learning Center and production management resources.
NCBA Director of Communications Mike Deering said the new site incorporates traditional and new media resources for website visitors to quickly find news and information pertaining to the U.S. cattle industry.
The "Media Center" contains news releases; opinion editorials; audio clips; social media feeds; video; and more to explain various topics about the industry.
"Our intention was to develop a site that would serve as a valuable resource to a very diverse audience. First and foremost, we wanted a site that would equip cattlemen with the tools needed to be as informed and vocal as possible," said Deering.
"Secondly, we wanted a place where the uninformed could quickly become informed. The new site is a one stop shop for anyone wanting the latest information about NCBA and the cattle industry."
