765 held in 105 days for stone pelting in Kashmir
MoS Kishan Reddy holds Hurriyat responsible for incidents.
by DECCAN CHRONICLE.New Delhi: The Central government on Tuesday said 765 people have been arrested in Jammu and Kashmir for their involvement in 190 stone-pelting and other law and order violations after the abrogation of Article 370 of the Constitution.
“Since August 5, 2019 to November 15, 2019, 765 persons have been arrested in 190 cases registered relating to stone pelting/ law and order,” Union minister of state for home affairs G. Kishan Reddy informed the Lok Sabha on Tuesday.
He, however, added there was a decline in the incidents of stonepelting since August 5 — in the last 105 days to be precise.
The minister said the government has initiated multipronged policies to check the stone pelting menace. “A large number of trouble makers, instigators, mob mobilises have been identified and various preventive measures have been taken against them which incl-ude detention under PSA and preventive arrests.”
“Investigation has revealed that various separatist organisations and activists, which are part of the Hurriyat, have been behind the incidents of stonepelting in the Kashmir valley. The NIA has chargesheeted 18 persons in terror-funding cases so far,” he said.

'I took Pride of Britain winner Adventureman to Downing Street to speak to PM'
Pride Of Britain Award winners, including a former robber and a real-life superhero, spoke to Boris Johnson inside No. 10 about how they will use their trophies as “tangible symbols” of the qualities that make a nation proud
by Rachael Bletchly, https://www.facebook.com/dailymirror/I took a Superhero to No. 10 Downing Street on Tuesday to have a quiet word with the Prime Minister.
Adventureman – aka Jamie McDonald from Gloucester – doesn’t look like your typical Iron Man or Captain America.
The big A is fading from the front of his green top, his tights have lost their lycra and he hasn’t got the bulk of Hulk or Wolverine.
But Adventureman left me marvelling at his bravery, resilience and generosity – qualities epitomised by the silver trophy in his right hand.
It was the Daily Mirror Pride of Britain Award presented to Jamie at a star-studded ceremony which you can watch for yourself on ITV at 8pm on Tuesday.
Jamie, 33, won his gong because after overcoming a rare spinal condition he raised £1million for sick children by completing a staggering series of endurance challenges including running 5,500 miles across America in his hero costume.
Jamie was joined at a No 10 party by other Pride of Britain winners – all heroes in their own right.
As you’ll see in the uplifting awards show, they have triumphed over tragedy, selflessly saved lives and inspired others to live their best lives.
Like Hezron Brown, 29, the Prince’s Trust Young Achiever who’s overcome a life of crime and homelessness to steer thousands of young people away from gangs and violence.
When he was five he fell into a bath of boiling water and was left badly scarred.
Other kids bullied him so badly he resorted to violence and got drawn into gang life.
He was held at gun point and escaped stabbings, but it was the threat of a ten-year sentence for robbery that finally changed his life.
Now both he and Jamie are motivational speakers, going into schools, colleges and companies to inspire, empower and bring people together.
They spoke to Boris Johnson inside No. 10 too, telling him they will use their trophies as “tangible symbols” of the qualities that make a nation proud.
And the PM told all the winners: “You’ve shown courage, determination and selflessness and, on behalf of the entire country, I say a big thank you.”
Superheroes come in many forms but all have the power to change lives.
Let’s hope they left a bit of magic behind at No 10.

How do I declare the character encoding of a CSS style sheet?
If you have any non-ASCII text in your CSS file, for example non-ASCII characters in font names, in values of the content
property, in selectors, etc., you need to be sure that the CSS parser knows how to transform the bytes into characters correctly, so that it understands your CSS code. This article describes how to do this.
You should always use UTF-8 as the character encoding of your style sheets and your HTML pages, and declare that encoding in your HTML. If you do that, there is no need to declare the encoding of your style sheet.
Other approaches are only needed if your style sheet contains non-ASCII characters and, for some reason, you can't rely on the encoding of the HTML and the associated style sheet to be the same. In this case you should use @charset
or HTTP headers to declare the encoding. (If your HTML and CSS files use the same encoding, the latest versions of major browsers will apply the encoding of the HTML file to the CSS stylesheet.)
@charset
As mentioned above, you should only use this when the style sheet and the calling HTML file are in different encodings.
It is important to understand that, although the @charset
declaration looks like a CSS at-rule, it is not parsed as such for detection of the character encoding. Only an exact byte sequence, beginning with the very first byte in the style sheet, will be effective. Variations, even those that would be valid for a normal at-rule with the same syntax, are silently ignored.
To set the character encoding inside the style sheet, use the following sequence of bytes, apart from the charset-name, at the very start of the file, one byte per character.
The charset-name is case-insensitive, but should always be utf-8
for new style sheets. If you really cannot use UTF-8 for your style sheet, see Working with non-UTF-8 encodings, below.
Only one @charset
byte sequence may appear in an external style sheet and it must appear at the very start of the document. It must not be
preceded by any characters, not even comments.
@charset "utf-8";
at the top of the style sheet – you need to also save your style sheet in the UTF-8 character encoding. (See Applying an encoding to your content.)Important: Since the HTTP header has a higher precedence than the in-document @charset
declaration, you should always take into account whether the character encoding is already declared in the HTTP header. If it is, @charset
must be set to declare the same encoding, and will only have an effect when the style sheet is read in a context where there are no HTTP headers (eg. from a local drive).
The techniques index provides a set of links to help you detect whether a declaration is being sent in the HTTP header.
The CSS3 Syntax specification says that if you have a UTF-8 byte-order mark at the start of your file, this should cause the browser to read the style sheet as UTF-8, regardless of any other declaration. Unfortunately, at the time of writing this is not supported interoperably – Internet Explorer 10 and 11 still give higher precedence to the HTTP header and @charset
declarations.
So for the time being you should rely on the @charset
or HTTP header declarations instead. The former has the additional advantage that it helps people looking at the source code to ascertain what is the encoding of the style sheet. The byte-order mark is invisible.
Read more about the byte-order mark.
The server may already send a default character encoding declaration in the HTTP Content-Type
header when your browser retrieves a style sheet, or it may not. This line in the HTTP response would indicate that the file is encoded in UTF-8.
It could be that the server is serving a style sheet with an encoding declaration that you don't want, due to server-wide defaults or specific settings, or serving without an encoding declaration when you want one. You can change the situation either for the server as a whole, or for a specific file or set of files, by changing the server settings (globally or locally) or by using code in scripts such as PHP.
The declaration in the HTTP header will always override the in-document declaration, if there is a conflict, except for those browsers where the byte-order mark overrides it.
However, we recommend that if you need to use an HTTP declaration to set the correct encoding, you also include an @charset
declaration inside the style sheet. This will ensure that the encoding is still known if the style sheet is used locally or moved, eg. for testing or editing.
Most people will not need to know the information in this section. It is provided for the sake of completeness.
This section is only to be read if you really cannot save your style sheet as UTF-8.
Until recently the IANA registry was the place to find names for encodings. The IANA registry commonly includes multiple names for the same encoding. In this case you should use the name designated as 'preferred'.
The new Encoding specification now provides a list that has been tested against actual browser implementations. You can find the list in the table in the section called Encodings. It is best to use the names in the left column of that table.
Note, however, that the presence of a name in either of these sources doesn't necessarily mean that it is OK to use that encoding. Several of the encodings are problematic. If you really can't use UTF-8, you should carefully consider the advice in the article Choosing & applying a character encoding.
charset
attribute on the link
elementThe HTML 4.01 specification describes a charset attribute that can be added to the link element to indicate the encoding of the document you are linking to. However, the use of this attribute on a link element is currently obsoleted by the HTML5 specification, so you shouldn't use it.

Policeman accused of rape flees to Tanzania
by IAN BYRONIn Summary
- The suspect, a police officer who is on suspension, went on the run after his daughter accused him of defiling her in November and later locking her up for almost a week at the Isebania Police Station.
- The officer reportedly defiled his 12-year-old daughter on November 1 and locked her up in the cells with the help of his colleagues in order to conceal evidence.
- Kuria West police chief Bernard Muriuki said he switched off all his mobile phones making tracking difficult.
Detectives are pursuing leads into the escape of a defilement suspect who escaped to neighbouring Tanzania after getting wind of his impending arrest.
The suspect, a police officer who is on suspension, went on the run after his daughter accused him of defiling her in November and later locking her up for almost a week at the Isebania Police Station.
Kuria West police chief Bernard Muriuki said he witched off all his mobile phones making tracking difficult.
Police had been close to nabbing him after members of the public tipped them off about his whereabouts but he managed to evade the dragnet and cross the border to Tanzania.
“It seems there’s someone feeding him with information on police operations,” Mr Muriuki said.
IPOA PROBE
The officer reportedly defiled his 12-year-old daughter on November 1 and locked her up in the cells with the help of his colleagues in order to conceal evidence.
The Independent Policing Oversight Authority (Ipoa) launched investigations into the rape claims.
From Wednesday to Friday last week, Ipoa officers camped in Isebania town, visiting the minor and her grandmother at a guardian’s home, where the two took refuge following the incident. Detectives have begun reviewing the matter.
Mr Muriuki said the suspect had been arrested and charged on two separate occasions in November but the case flopped after the prosecution cited lack of evidence.
The Standard Seven pupil maintained that her father defiled her at their home in Nyabohanse after luring her into his bedroom and kept her blood-stained clothes as evidence.
The minor, who was by then staying with her grandmother, had gone to her father’s house to collect school fees. After the incident, she said she ran to Nyabohanse Police Post, where she reported the matter.
She said her attempts to have the suspect arrested were futile after officers turned against her and locked her up in the cells in a bid to shield their colleague.
LOCKED UP
The girl said a female police officer called her father and area chief and tried to persuade her to forgive him.
She was then moved to Isebania Police Station, where she was locked up in a cell for two hours, then taken to Nyayo Hospital where she was tested and given medication.
The minor stayed in police custody for six days, sharing the cold floor with adults.
The officers reportedly always allowed the man to see her and he constantly visited in an attempt to coerce her to drop the case.
The girl's guardian claimed he is living in a state of perpetual fear following threats by the suspect’s relatives.
The victim is yet to record statements with police following the threats.

Opeth share haunting animated video for Ingen Sanning Är Allas
by https://www.facebook.com/progOpeth team up with Jess Cope for video for the Swedish language track which features on the band’s In Cauda Venenum album
Opeth have released an animated video for their song Ingen Sanning Är Allas.
The Swedish language track appears on the band’s latest studio album In Cauda Venenum which launched back in September.
The striking video was created by South African animator and artist Jess Cope and follows “a melancholic and bitter man on the brink of self-destruction and insanity as he delves into a sinister alternate world as reality crumbles around him.”
Cope previously worked with Opeth vocalist and guitarist Mikael Akerfeldt on the video for Drag Ropes – his Storm Corrosion collaboration with Steven Wilson.
A video for the English version of Ingen Sanning Är Allas (Universal Truth) will be released in December.
Opeth are currently preparing to tour in India, China, Singapore and Australia before the end of the year and will head out on the road across North America with Graveyard in early 2020.
It was also recently confirmed that Opeth would headline next year’s ArcTanGent festival in the UK.
Akerfeldt said: “We're excited to play the ArcTanGent festival in Bristol. Been to Bristol a few times and it's always a pleasure. It'll be one of the last festivals we play that summer, so we want to ‘go out with a bang’ and need your help and participation to do so.”

will reset the Events fields to whatever is passed to extra_fields
| Parameters | use_query | (bool ): Force the use of the query module to retreive the event data. Only works with SIEM 11.2 or greater.
In contrario, if explicitly False , force the use of ipsGetAlertData to get the details.
Default behaviour will use the query module if an 'Alert.IPSIDAlertID' keys exists. |
| extra_fields | (list ): Only when use_query=True or the Event is already a query event. Additionnal event fields to load in the query. | |
| Raises | AttributeError if the event ID has not been found. |

On larger Drupal sites, the Token module quickly becomes unwieldy, and the UI can consume precious resources while often being never used. Here are some options for mitigation of this.
Written by the same guy who wrote token, token_tweaks aims to reduce the recursiveness of the theme_token_tree() function. This simple fix is enough on most sites to speed up page loads, and reduce memory consumption.
This is a real life example from a current (large) Drupal project I am working on. With vanilla token module installed, and viewing an admin page with a theme_token_tree() rendered on it (it happens to be a webform configuration page). I used devel to produce these metrics.
Page execution time was 2850.96 ms. Memory used at: devel_boot()=9.4 MB, devel_shutdown()=116.07 MB, PHP peak=163.25 MB.
And there was one really insane database query happening (yes that is 244ms!):
After token_tweaks
Page execution time was 848.18 ms. Memory used at: devel_boot()=8.03 MB, devel_shutdown()=76.9 MB, PHP peak=77.75 MB.
And now the query is much more manageable (0.64ms!):
How to install token_tweaks
drush dl token_tweaks drush en token_tweaks -y drush vset token_tree_recursion_limit 1
The above code will set the recursion limit to only 1 level deep. This is the minimum allowed.
Recently there was a commit that introduced a new theme function for rendering the the token_tree using theme_token_tree_link(). This essentially stops rendering the jQuery table expand fieldset, and replaces it with an on-demand modal dialog. The beautiful part is that you only need to include one additional parameter in the form element, in the case of the webform module, the token_tree form API element went from
$fieldset['token_tree'] = array( '#theme' => 'token_tree', '#token_types' => $groups, );
to:
$fieldset['token_tree'] = array( '#theme' => 'token_tree', '#dialog' => TRUE, '#token_types' => $groups, );
Here is a few screenshots of the new token dialog UI in action:
And when you click on the "Browse available tokens" link, this appears
There is a patch for webform that is listed at http://drupal.org/node/1801782 - hopefully contrib will start to adopt this shortly.
The best part about this is that the token_tweaks module and the new dialog work in tandem with each other, and together they will help reduce your Drupal memory footprint, and speed up the administration side of your site.
UPDATE 18th January 2013: Say you do want to go through the arduous task of patching all contrib that has integration with token, there is a simplier option for you. You can instead create a custom module to override the the theme implementation of theme_token_tree() all together.
 We can prevent this by forcing it to always * use its friendlier 'dialog' option (which instead outputs a * link to a separate page with all the markup). * * n.b. If the path starts with 'token/tree' then we are requesting * that separate page, and must render the full tree. * * @see MYMODULE_theme_registry_alter(). */ function MYMODULE_theme_token_tree(&$variables) { if (arg(0) != 'token' || arg(1) != 'tree') { $variables['dialog'] = TRUE; } return theme_token_tree($variables); }
As you can see this function adds in the #dialog parameter automatically, thus forcing the new dialog everywhere.
There is some movement with Drupal 8, to do a better job with this http://drupal.org/node/514990
Is there any other Token tips or patches that you know of? Leave me a comment.

The Talladega Superspeedway opened in September of 1969. It all started with Bill Ward, who was a race car driver, and an insurance salesman. In the mid 1960's, he was talking with William H.G. France, the founder of NASCAR and International Speedway Corporation, about opening another speedway. By 1968, Ward convinced local city officials to let him open a speedway in Talladega. |

SIRENS A film review by Scott Renshaw Copyright 1994 Scott Renshaw
Starring: Hugh Grant, Tara Fitzgerald, Sam Neill, Elle Macpherson, Portia de Rossi. Screenplay/Director: John Duigan.
I'm no marketing whiz, but it would appear that someone made a serious error in the advertising campaign for the new Australian import SIRENS. The posters prominently feature the bare back of co-star/supermodel Elle Macpherson accompanied by the line, "Be seduced." One might be inclined to believe that the target audience is men, and that SIRENS is simply some soft-core porn throwaway. In fact, SIRENS has more in common with ENCHANTED APRIL than it does with EMMANUELLE. Writer/director John Duigan, creator of the wonderful coming-of-age films THE YEAR MY VOICE BROKE and FLIRTING, has fashioned another tale of sexual awakening, this time focusing on an adult, and it's a delightfully acted and beautifully filmed comedy-drama.
SIRENS is a fictional story based on the true-life 1930s artist Norman Lindsay (Sam Neill), a free-thinking Australian whose nude studies, particularly "The Crucified Venus," created a stir in conservative British circles. When the Anglican church becomes concerned about the "blasphemous" painting's inclusion in an international exhibition of Lindsay's work, it sends clergyman Anthony Campion (Hugh Grant) and his wife Estella (Tara Fitzgerald) to convince Lindsay to withdraw it voluntarily. The very proper British couple is invited to stay at Lindsay's wild and lush compound, where they meet his three principal models: lusty Sheela (Elle Macpherson), socialist Prue (Kate Fischer) and innocent Giddy (Portia de Rossi). While Anthony works to persuade Lindsay, Estella is left to discover the untamed world of the Australian Blue Mountains. Gradually, a change comes over her, as the influence of the uninhibited models opens Estella's eyes to desires she didn't know she had.
SIRENS skillfully interweaves two themes without seeming overstuffed. The principal story, that of Estella's response to the liberated and liberating world of the Lindsay estate, focuses on how that world interacts with the restrictive female sexual mores of the time. Tara Fitzgerald does an impressive job of conveying Estella's growing curiosity through her open face and subtle body language, and our view of an Australia only just on the edge of "civilization" comes through her eyes. That world is populated by wombats, insects and even flowers which take on a kind of personality. However, most significantly, there are snakes, and the Linday compound is established as a kind of reverse-Eden where humans have the chance to return to a state of nature through acknowledgement of sensuality. The characters native to this world are frequently shown eating apples, practically wallowing in their connection to original sin. Lindsay challenges the Christian notion of sin as linked to female sexuality, and SIRENS is largely the playing out of that challenge.
At the same time, the issue of artistic censorship is very much part of the subtext. The dinner table debates between Anthony and Lindsay frame the argument, and while it is clear where Duigan's sentiments lie he doesn't turn Anthony into a dogma-spouting stereotype. He presents the Church's case with a respect for its views, and Hugh Grant is a charming and surprisingly hip spokesman. While the arguments are nothing special, and in fact tend towards the cliche, Duigan treats the issue of art, its influence on the public and the artist's responsibility as a legitimate subject of debate.
If there is any fault to be found with Duigan's script, it's that he does skimp on his characters in the interest of establishing his analogy. The relationship between Anthony and Estella is not as well-established as it might be, and Lindsay himself is little more than a catalyst for Estella's transformation. Macpherson and Fischer look good, but they're given too much to say and it's never all that interesting when they do speak. However, SIRENS does quite a lot with its visuals, highlighting its glorious Australian settings, and it maintains a frisky sense of humor about its sensual subject matter without sniggering over it. Those who might be looking for a leering sex romp should look elsewhere; SIRENS is lyrical, lively and thoughtful and always a feast for the senses.
On the Renshaw scale of 0 to 10 sirens: 8.

There’s a lot of action going on in the Rails IDE space these days. Besides Aptana RadRails, which has been around for a long time, Sun’s got impressive Rails support in the new NetBeans, and just this week CodeGear launched their 3rdRail IDE, which also looks like a great setup.
I’m personally not quite ready to leave TextMate behind, but it’s encouraging to see all these options for dedicated Rails IDEs. It’s not going to be long before they’ll be giving regular text editors a serious run for their money.

This app supports connecting to multiple Microsoft Bands, although only a single Band can be used at once. After firstly ensuring that the Band is paired with your iPhone you will then see the Band listed on the Connection tab. Tap on a Band to connect to it. Once a Band has been connected to a checkmark will show next to its name.
The app will automatically connect to the most recently connected to Band when it is first launched.
After a connection to a Band has been established you can begin a recording session, which is a short period for which sensor data is collected from the Band and stored on your iPhone - it won't yet be transmitted anywhere. It is important to ensure that you manually stop a recording session within the app before you attempt to sync sessions.
All recorded sessions data can be accessed from within the app, with visual indicators to show whether the data has been synced to the cloud.
Firstly, you will need an account on the Band to the Pole web server. When you first login it will verify that your account details are correct, so it is important to have an Internet connection when you first do this. There are three sync options:
The data from a single recording session will generally be on the order of a few hundred bytes, which is way under the size of a single TCP/IP packet.


Supervisor-Mode Access Prevention
Indicates support for preventing supervisor data accesses to pages that are accessible in user mode.


Last night I went through the procedure for installing emoncms v8 on Ubuntu / Debian linux on my Pi starting with a fresh Raspbian build set to boot and run off a USB HDD.
I navigated to http://localhost/emoncms using the epiphany browser and saw the emoncms landing page. I entered username and password as defined in /var/www/emoncms/settings.php and pressed enter and the page went white and now I can't get anything to display when navigating to the localhost/emoncms url.
I did have 'remember password' box checked, but went to the browser settings and cleared personal data and history and de-selected remember passwords in the epiphany settings, but no change.
Revisiting the setup procedure I discovered that I missed changing the second AllowOverride All in the ./sites-available/default file, but fixed that and restarted the machine and still no change.
Any thoughts on where I may have gone wrong? I tried installing the chromium browser to try but ran into the 'chromium cannot run as root' issue and gave up for the night.
Thanks!
Re: emoncms on R Pi Raspbian build - saw local landing page once, now it's blank white
I suppose a start is to see if apache is running, and what errors, if any are showing in the Apache log.
(or wherever your apache logs are located - I'm only familiar with Raspbian)
Can you get access via your systems private IP address instead of Localhost? for example;
http://<IP_ADDRESS>/emoncms

Re: emoncms on R Pi Raspbian build - saw local landing page once, now it's blank white
Got it, error log pointed me to line 10 of settings.php and I was missing a semicolon. Thanks! Gotta remember those helpful log files.
I was able to see the page again and register and it seems to be OK so far.
Next is to work with getting the serial monitor doing its job of feeding data in, I found a couple example scripts for that on the forums that look good. I'm using an Envi cc128 for now, will probably get the better device eventually.
Re: emoncms on R Pi Raspbian build - saw local landing page once, now it's blank white
Edit - I may need to give up on hosting my own server for now and just start over with the install when I have time to mess with it again. I did some reading up on LAMP server stack and will really have to do my homework before digging into hosting the thing locally, at least if I want to have a decent understanding of how all the code is working such that I can have a chance in heck of troubleshooting things. The php stuff is just getting me too bogged down. For now I will focus on getting the perl script running to post a data feed from the Current Cost meter to emoncms.org. Should be much more straightforward to start that way.
Well I'm stuck again, I broke stuff while trying to make it better...
I realized that before writing any real data I should move my data repository locations and the mysql database to the bigger partition since I installed everything initially on sda1 (/var/lib). I made folders at /home/pi/data on sda3, changed the corresponding lines in /var/www/emoncms/settings.php (lines 37 etc) reinstalled mysql (client, server and common b/c the server was throwing an error during startup after moving some files).
After a lot of fooling around (purging mysql client, server and common to get a clean install in the /sda3 partition) I seem to be most of the way back to where I was yesterday, but I'm getting a blank page on login to http://localhost/emoncms again. The var/log/apache2/error.log file says
File does not exist: /var/www/faivon.ico.
This is apparently the file for the browser address bar image so its absence indicates I messed something up.
Are there log files for emoncms I can look at for additional information?
I re-setup the mysql database name and user info the same as before and I don't think mysql is putting files in /var/www anyways so not sure the reinstalling mysql is related or not.
I tried updating emoncms with the hopes it would restore any lost files but that didn't change things.

'Simon Birch' (1998)
A movie review by Walter Frith
Member of the 'Internet Movie Critics Association' http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Studio/5713/index.html
and
Member of the 'Online Film Critics Society' http://ofcs.org/ofcs/
"They don't make 'em like that anymore!" That's what the true movie fan will say and only a true cynic who is angry at the world, blaming it for all of their personal failures will hate this film as it is nearly impossible to truly dislike a film like 'Simon Birch'. This film is brimming with childhood innocence and coming of age and has enough light hearted humour to fill the context of a two hour motion picture. The film plays like poetry. It has its highs and it has its lows and I don't mean that in terms of quality but in terms of emotion.
Based on 'A Prayer for Owen Meany' by John Irving, 'Simon Birch' has within it a true story of optimism when life hands you a setback. The point of this film can be easily missed as it strives for its entire running time to tell a story of how friendship can have no boundaries, only commitments.
Ian Michael Smith is Simon Birch. He's a twelve year old boy who has a birth defect of inadequate growth. He's an absolutely spirited human being and for a boy of twelve, he has the wisdom and attitude of someone three times his age. He and his best friend, another 12 year-old played by Joseph Mazzello ('Jurassic Park'), go about their everyday lives in Gravestown, Maine in 1964. Simon is a boy who isn't truly happy. Wise in the many ways of the world for a boy his age, Simon's parents neglect him. Never truly loving him for who he is but disappointed by the way he was born. It is a stigma many children suffer from.
Joseph Mazzello plays Joe Wenteworth, and his mother, portrayed by Ashley Judd, is the town's live wire. A beautiful and down to earth woman who gave birth to Joe out of wedlock and refuses to name who his father his. In many ways, she acts as a substitute mother for Simon. Making sweaters for him when it's cold, showering him with a kind word and making him feel he's as good as anyone in the town are her assets and she is the best character in the film. I would like to see Judd receive an Oscar nomination for this role as her character is the emotional anchor of the film, even though she isn't in it as much as we, who like this film, would enjoy seeing her.
One thing I would like to point out about 'Simon Birch' is that it is flawed but very mildly. There are traces of 'Stand by Me', 'Forrest Gump', 'The Sweet Hereafter' and 'Made in Heaven' to be found but the film's mild lack of originality is compensated by terrific performances and a story that will be mistaken by many as manipulative when it's really about one thing, humanity. We are treated at the beginning of the film to the somewhat surprising appearance of Jim Carrey who plays Joe Wenteworth as a man in the present day, visiting friends of the past and is the film's narrator.
Other major characters in the film are Oliver Platt as a suitor of Joe's mother who Joe eventually grows fond of and David Strathairn who in many ways plays the film's most enigmatic character.
I was stunned to see that many of the things that Simon and Joe go through actually happened to me as a youngster and as many who see the film will testify to, it is a film that brings back happier times in one's life and is a film many can relate to. People in many regards don't go to the movies to be lectured to but 'Simon Birch' is the perfect film to take children to as both an entertainment value and as a lesson of life.
The film is written for the screen and directed by Mark Steven Johnson who wrote both 'Grumpy Old Men' movies and 'Simon Birch' is a film that will not be entirely appreciated for the moment but will be better cherished a decade or more down the road.

Many larger species live a long time - up to 70 years, or even more. Smaller birds such as budgies and cockatiels can still live as long as a healthy pet dog - 15 years or so. So, for example, if you buy a large parrot as a retirement present, bear in mind that the bird is very likely to outlive its owner.
African Greys and Cockatoos are messy birds, with lots of ‘dander’ (a type of avian dandruff). This makes them a poor choice for anyone who suffers bird allergies - they are more liable to cause asthma and sneezing than other parrots.
Lories and Lorikeets need a fruit and nectar diet, which makes their droppings very liquid, and their cages, as a consequence, very messy. They are surprisingly good at squirting it out between the bars too! Many species - notably the Amazons - become very ‘squawky’ if they do not receive enough attention from their owners. Macaws tend to turn nasty if they do not receive enough attention; and some older birds seem to develop a mean streak regardless of how you treat them. Many species, including Macaws, will pluck themselves when stressed, and stress can be anything from too much light or noise, to overcrowding and frustrated mating urges.
Fruit, vegetables, nuts, seeds, a little extra protein in the form of cooked meat, and a base of specially formulated parrot mix. That’s the basis of most pet parrots’ diets.
But there is no single diet that suits all types of parrot. It’s not just a matter of size, either. Lories and Lorikeets feed on nectar in the wild, Hyacinth Macaws are mad for nuts , and some species thrive on a fairly carnivorous diet.
Finding out every last detail about your specific parrot’s dietary requirements is important if you want to give the bird the best chance of a long, healthy life. Some can be fussy, or can become attached to certain foods. It’s important that all birds eat the full range of fresh, dry and formulated foods that cover all the nutritional ground they need.
Lots of what your pet birds do will be self-explanatory – things like feeding, flying, bickering, bathing, and climbing. But there are other types of movement and body language that require a little homework on your part if you are to fully understand what your parrot is ‘saying’ with his body.
Beaks Grinding and Clicking – see the Parrot Sounds section. Jousting – birds that grab each other's beaks in a kind of wrestling match are simply playing. If real anger is involved, there will be a lot more flapping and squawking. Wiping – Parrots, like most birds, wipe their beaks after eating, especially if the food is wet or slightly messy (banana, for example). Some parrots wipe wet beaks as a means of marking territory.
Biting This is always an unwelcome behaviour, and is a sign of aggression, over-defensiveness or fear. You can see most bites coming – the bird will crouch and open his beak prior to the lunge. Getting the parrot used to your presence will help to defuse the behaviour. If it’s taking place in an aviary, you may have an overcrowding problem. If all else fails, a biter will have to be isolated from the other birds until he shows signs of calming down.
Crests Cockatiels and Cockatoos use their crests to express themselves. When relaxed and happy, the bird will have its crest flat or ever-so-slightly raised. If the bird is crouching and hissing, however, this means he is angry and afraid. A raised crest indicates excitement. This is usually a sign that the parrot is pleased to see you (or the food you are carrying!). This is not to be confused with a crest that’s fully-raised and stays in that position. This is a sign of fear, anger or some other over-stimulated state of mind. Beware the angry peck!
Parrots and Disease If your birds are kept clean and on a healthy diet, you are very unlikely to catch disease from them. To be on the safe side, always wash your hands with soap and water after any contact with parrots, whether handling them, cleaning the cage or merely changing the food bowls. You could also protect your hands with rubber gloves, and wear a mask to avoid breathing in dust from the cage. Never hold food in your mouth for the parrots to take, and avoid kissing them. If you follow these common sense rules, and ensure that everyone else in the household does likewise, you have little to fear.
Aspergillus. This is a fungal infection of parrots’ air sacs and lungs, usually contracted in damp or dirty environments where the fungus can bloom. The symptoms are breathing difficulties, with an audible wheezing, accompanied by fluffed-up feathers and a generally ‘poorly’ appearance. There is sometimes discharge from the nostrils.
Avian Gastric Yeast (AGY) infection (Wasting Disease). Also known as macrorhabdiosis, or megabacteriosis, this highly contagious infection is caused by a mixture of yeast infection and secondary bacterial infection. It affects budgies mainly. It is difficult to spot in the early stages, incubating with no outward sign of trouble. The first outward sign is weight loss, as AGY impedes digestion. There will be undigested food in the droppings, and birds may vomit food and mucus.
Candida virus (Thrush), or Candidiasis. This is a yeast infection, the same one that infects humans. It blooms in the parrot’s crop or digestive tract, and will not be transmitted to humans via birds unless you allow them to ‘kiss’ you (an ill-advised ‘trick’ that some owners like to teach their birds). Infected birds will be listless and may have loose droppings. As these are symptoms of many kinds of ailment, a trip to the vet for diagnosis is essential. Candida is easily treatable.
Colds, Sneezes. Parrots can catch colds (although the viruses are different to that which infects humans) , and the symptoms are similar - runny noses, swollen eyes, wheezing and sneezing. In parrots, however, the condition can lead to rapid decline, and a vet’s administrations will be required.
With several dozen different species of parrot commonly kept as pets, this section of our guide can only deal in generalisations. Each species has its own particular requirements, and specialist advice should be sought for the particular birds you are trying to breed. Generally speaking, breeding birds must be kept apart from other pairs, or from a non-breeding flock. Parents become very territorial, and life-threatening squabbles are inevitable. If you only keep a pair of parrots, this is not going to be a problem. If you want to work on a grander scale, you will need to install a custom-made breeding aviary, with separate sections for each pair.
Size matters! An outdoor aviary isn’t just an al fresco cage. It should give the parrots as much space as possible for flight, and offer a warm and comfortable roosting space too. The species of parrot you keep will determine the minimum size of the space, although even smaller species enjoy long, unimpeded flight-paths. In fact the smaller parrots tend to fly more than their larger cousins. The size of the area you have available should act as a starting point for the type and number of birds you are going to keep.

The initial test is to simply check that the USART0 transmit functions are operating properly as the default USART. Send a test string to the terminal using the following functions: 1) usart_print - to print string 2) usart_print_P - to print string from program memory 3) usart_printf - to print formated string 4) usart_printf_P - to print formated string from program memory 5) usart_xprint - to print string using interrupts 6) usart_xprint_P - to print string from program memory using interrupts 7) usart_xprintf - to print formated string using interrupts 8) usart_xprintf_P - to print formated string from program memory using interrupts This test case needs to pass before attempting all other tests since results from tests are displayed on the terminal connected to USART0.
Checks string functions to transmit directly to USART0 . Send a test string to the terminal using the following functions: 1) usart_fprint - to print string 2) usart_fprint_P - to print string from program memory 3) usart_fprintf - to print formated string 4) usart_fprintf_P - to print formated string from program memory 5) usart_xfprint - to print string using interrupts 6) usart_xfprint_P - to print string from program memory using interrupts 7) usart_xfprintf - to print formated string using interrupts 8) usart_xfprintf_P - to print formated string from program memory using interrupts
Checks that USART can be closed and opened 1) usartOpen - setups up connection to a USART 2) usartClose - Closes a connection to a USART
Checks reading and writing characters to/from terminal 1) usartWrite - reads character from USART (with polling) 2) usartRead - writes character to USART (with polling) 3) usart_xgetChar - gets character from ring buffer(requires interrupts) 4) usart_xputChar - add character to ring buffer (requires interrupts)
Checks buffer count in USART0 receive ring buffer and flush characters in the buffer 1) usart_AvailableCharRx - number of available characters in the input buffer 2) usart_xflushRx - deletes characters in receive buffer.
Transmits large message (800 characters) to check the filling of the transmit buffer. 1) usart_xfprint_P - transmit messages stored in program memory.
Test transmission and reception between USART1 and USART2. The Rx lines from the USARTs must be connected to the Tx lines of the other USARTs (i.e. NULL modem connection. 1) usartOpen - setups up connection to a USART 2) usartClose - Closes a connection to a USART 3) usart_xgetChar - gets character from ring buffer(requires interrupts) 4) usart_xfprint - transmit messages stored in program memory.
Test transmission and reception between USART2 and USART3. The Rx lines from the USARTs must be connected to the Tx lines of the other USARTs (i.e. NULL modem connection. 1) usartOpen - setups up connection to a USART 2) usartClose - Closes a connection to a USART 3) usart_xgetChar - gets character from ring buffer(requires interrupts) 4) usart_xfprint - transmit messages stored in program memory.

Substance: 4-AcO-DiPT, cannabis
Dose: unknown
Set: Things have been chugging rather smoothly lately. I seem to have gotten myself out of the 'bad trip space' I was in since my 9 gram mushroom experience. My trip for the 4th of July and the one 2 weeks later were both very pleasant, if mild, due to having to interact socially.
This morning I visited a friend that I haven't seen in months. Then this afternoon I went to the pub for a meeting of local psychedelicists. And, finally, this evening I got to visit yet another friend I haven't seen for months. All this cavorting has my spirits in a thoroughly uplifted mood.
This is my first time taking this substance, so I plan to start small. Plus, I am taking it at my 2nd friend's house ;-). I am familiar with 5-MeO-DiPT and wonder how similar, if at all, the two will be. My inclination is there will be some.
Setting: At my friend's house in the city. It is a beautiful, sunny day and the house is a magical place, decorated splendidly. Another friend from home is with us as well. I'm the only tripping today. I had a cheese-less salad with balsamic dressing and hot chocolate for lunch at the meeting 5 hours prior to ingesting the substance. I'm a bit tired; I was falling asleep on the way over to my friend's house.
Report: [T+0:00] I eyeball out a small dose into a juice glass. In retrospect, guessing from the amount of material, my trip and the dosages listed on Erowid I probably had 10-15mg, but when eyeballing you never do really know :-/. I lick the substance from the tip of my knife, so that I might more fully know it. Its taste was mild, milder than anything else I've tasted - even 5-MeO-DMT. I don't find it repugnant at all and would have no problem holding it sublingually. However, today I choose to take it in some cranberry juice. I drink my juice over the course of 2 minutes, just as if it were a normal glass of fruit enhanced water, but of course it is not =).
[T+0:11] I have the urge to ask what time it is. I'm not tripping, but I'd say the first, slightest alert. Itís just long enough, perhaps a second or two, to catch my attention, but too vague to really get a feel for how to describe it.
[T+0:15] I feel a definite alert now and again ask the time. This alert starts slowly ramping up in intensity almost as soon as I notice it. It is some slight body energy and mild mind-alteration, perhaps equivalent to the hit of cannabis when effects are first felt. The effects keep growing as I sit on the futon. I get comfortable and start smoking some cannabis.
[T+0:25] I'm definitely tripping now. I again ask the time. I continue smoking cannabis. My host checks in on me and notes that I'm definitely altered. Thoughts have the associational flair of cannabis, but remain unclouded. Some minor short-term memory impairment is there, but surprisingly little. I'm still coming up and simply lounge back to check this stuff out from the comfort of the prone position for a while.
[T+1:15] I've reached the peak now. I'd say +1.5, flirting with a ++. It is a very nice substance so far. There is some nice body feel, similar to 5-MeO-DiPT, but I'd say about half as strong. My thoughts flow briskly, and do not run off into fantasy and are interesting. Mentally I prefer it to 5-MeO-DiPT. A slight headache is there at the back of my skull, but less than that produced by 5-MeO-DiPT.
There is not a whole lot going on visually at this dose. The air is 'brighter', more so than on some other substances. I notice lots of flares from lights, windows, crystals and such. Depth perception is altered, but not in a way that makes it difficult to function at all. Rather, things simply seem to lie in different 'planes' if you will, almost like animation cells that are spread out to form the proper 'real world' size. Some very minor patterning, tending towards rounded forms.
I put on 'Abbey Road'. It sounds excellent of course, but no more so than usual ;-). No gross motor impairment is noted. Some very minor tremor, far less than I get with 5-MeO-DiPT, is present and barely affects my fine motor skills.
[T+1:30] I figure I'll check for CEV's on the off chance that I'm actually getting some. For some reason I hardly ever do :(. None are noticed, so I try staring at the lamp since my two best CEV's were solar powered, but to no avail.
[T+1:45] I have a nice conversation with my host, which is not difficult at all. I am still peaking. We discuss my impressions of the compound and talk about literature.
[T+2:00] I notice I've begun coming down and decide to smoke some more herb. I lounge on the futon and try to enjoy the remains of the day, sorry to see that the Sun's light is already dimming.
[+3:00] The sun has left and my host informs us that he needs to go to bed soon, so we head out after I smoke one more bowl with one of the housemates. All the lights have prominent flares. On the bridge across the bay it seemed like we were going over 80 mph, but when I checked we were only doing 50-55. Iím quiet on the way home and just allow myself to get lost in my thoughts.
[+4:25] I feel extremely thirsty and ask my comrade to pull over so we can grab a drink. I also get some sunflower seeds as the salad I had at lunch-time is all I ate today.
[+4:50] We arrive home. Iím still slightly altered, but basically down. Essentially I note some mild ďpushĒ, like I get after a 5-MeO-DiPT experience. I didnít have much difficulty getting to sleep despite the push, but as I said I was tired before ingestion.
[+9:30] My headache wakes me up and I notice the push is still lingering. I take some Aleve to take care of my headache and drift back to typical sleep.
Summary: This was a perfect introduction to the substance. Certainly not an overwhelming dose, like mine often are
. I liked the bit of mental effects I got and the body feel was an added bonus. I found it to have less body load than 5-MeO-DiPT, but they had some similarities. Already I think I like the 4-AcO-DiPT better though. Iím going to try it again in 2 weeks with about twice as much material. Iíll also be introducing it to my girlfriend at that time, at about 2/3ís of the dose I took.

Why Mayne Pharma shares tanked on its AGM
by Tom RichardsonThe Mayne Pharma Group Ltd (ASX: MYX) share price tumbled 11 per cent today after the wholesale pharmaceutical drugs merchant reported sales for the first four months of FY 2020 were down 16 per cent to $154 million.
The group blamed the result on the additional competition in two of its generic products named liothyronine and dofetilide.
Other bad news for investors included falling gross profit margins due to a “changing product sales mix” and “inventory obsolescence”.
The shares are now down more than 75% since August 2016 just after the group made a giant $887 million acquisition of a portfolio of generic U.S. drug products mainly funded via a capital raising.
However, the products have not performed as expected, while the election of U.S. President Donald Trump has also put more pressure on drug pricing.
President Trump has been on the record to claim generic drugs companies are “getting away with murder” in terms of the pricing they charge for reimbursement from U.S. government sponsored health insurers providing services to veterans for example.
Mayne Pharma is looking to find significant cost savings over FY 2020 and the medium term in response to the problems.


Chris Evans Prefers Thor’s Hammer to Captain America’s Shield
by Robert WorkmanWhile it’s been a few months since Avengers: Endgame’s release, there are many moments that still stick with fans — like Captain America finally wielding the power of Mjolnir.
Chris Evans actually had something to say about that moment when he recently stopped by The Tonight Show. Evans admitted he likes Thor’s hammer more than Cap’s shield. When Fallon asked about which of the two Evans preferred, he answered quickly: “Hammer.”
“Well, you know, the shield was destined for the character,” explained Evans. “The hammer was kind of this period at the end of a sentence in terms of his worth, and it was nice. And the (film directors Joe and Anthony) Russos really know how to build those moments. I’ll say the hammer.”
RELATED: Avengers: Endgame Writers Address Captain America Fan Theory
Evans also shared another humorous story about how he spoiled a key moment for co-star Anthony Mackie.
“I didn’t know he didn’t know what was going to happen,” said Evans, regarding the passing of Cap’s shield. “And I said, ‘Hey, man, isn’t that scene fantastic?’ He was like, ‘What scene?’ I said, ‘The scene where I give you the shield.’ He said, ‘You’re giving me the shield?!’ And I said, ‘Oh, no!’”
Avengers: Endgame is available now on 4K Ultra HD Blu-Ray, Blu-Ray, DVD and digital formats.

Learning Puppet — Preparing an Agent VM
We’re now moving into exercises that involve both a puppet master and one or more agent nodes, and to get the most out of this section, you’ll need to be running more than one node at a time. This interlude will help you get two nodes running and configured so that you’re ready for the next few chapters.
Step 0: Get the Latest VM
Things have changed quite a bit since we posted the first Learning Puppet VM, so to keep these instructions simple, everything below will assume you’re running a system with Puppet Enterprise 2.0 or later. You can check which version of PE you’re running like this:
[root@learn ~]# puppet --version
2.7.9 (Puppet Enterprise 2.0.1)
If you’re up to date, skip down to here. If you’re running an older version, do one of the following:
Download the Latest VM
The latest version of the Learning Puppet VM is right over here. As ever, it’s about 500 MB and free for everyone to download.
Before replacing your VM, make sure to save any manifests or modules from your previous copy. (After all, the whole point of Puppet is that you can use them to get right back to where you were.)
Or: Upgrade PE on Your Existing VM
If you can’t download a whole new VM right now, you can:
- Download the latest version of Puppet Enterprise. Choose the EL 5 for i386 installer, which is about 50 MB.
- Copy the installer tarball to your VM and follow the upgrade instructions in the PE 2 User’s Guide.
This is more advanced than just downloading the current VM, especially if you’re upgrading from PE 1.0 or 1.1, but we’ve tried to document the process clearly. Follow the instructions for upgrading a combined master/console server.
Step 1: Duplicate Your Existing VM
There are any number of ways you could make an agent VM for the next steps, but the fastest and easiest is to simply copy your existing VM and reconfigure it. (The reconfiguring could be difficult, but there’s a module for that.)
Below, we give instructions for copying the VM with VMware Fusion and with VirtualBox.
With VMware Fusion
(Note: although we don’t provide a full walkthrough for VMware Workstation, the process should be similar.)
-
If you still have the zipped VM archive you originally downloaded, you can extract it again for a fresh copy.
Otherwise, shut down the VM by running
shutdown -h now
while logged in as root. Once the system is stopped, locate the folder or bundle that contains the VMX file — you can right-click its entry in the Virtual Machine Library window and choose “Show in Finder” — and duplicate that entire directory. -
Your second copy of the files (whether from re-extracting or duplicating) contains a VMX file; drag it and drop it onto Fusion’s Virtual Machine Library window. (If this window isn’t displayed, the menu item to display it is in Fusion’s “Window” menu.) This will import the virtual machine without automatically starting it up, which will give you a chance to change its RAM. (If you accidentally start it anyway, you can always change the RAM later or leave it as is.)
-
Once Fusion has the VM, you can right-click its entry in the Library window and choose “Settings” to change the amount of memory it will consume. (Use the “Processors & RAM” section of the settings window.) Although the original (puppet master) VM will need at least 512 MB of RAM, you can safely dial the agent VM down to 256 MB.
You shouldn’t need to change the networking settings from the default mode (NAT); with VMware, this will allow your VMs to access the internet, each other, and your host system. If you need other nodes on the network to be able to contact your VMs, you can change the networking mode to Bridged.
-
When you start the VM for the first time, Fusion will ask whether you moved it or copied it. You should answer that you copied it.
With VirtualBox
-
If you still have the folder with the original OVF file, you can re-import it into VirtualBox for a new VM.
Otherwise, shut down the VM by running
shutdown -h now
while logged in as root. Once the system is stopped, right-click on the VM’s entry in the VirtualBox Manager window, and select Clone. You will be presented with a series of dialog boxes.-
In the first one, choose a new name for the VM and make sure the “Reinitialize the MAC address of all network cards” box is checked.
-
In the second one, choose “Full Clone.”
-
-
Once VirtualBox has the new VM ready, change its network adapter to Bridged Adapter mode; otherwise, it will be unable to communicate with the puppet master. (You can also configure two network adapters instead of using bridged mode, but this is advanced and should not be done by most users.)
-
You can also click on the “System” settings to reduce the amount of memory the VM will consume. An agent node should only need 256 MB of RAM.
Step 2: Reconfigure the New Node With Puppet
Install this learningpuppet module on the agent VM, and apply the learningpuppet::makeagent
class:
# wget http://docs.puppetlabs.com/learning/files/learningpuppet.tar.gz
# tar -xzf learningpuppet.tar.gz
# mv learningpuppet /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/modules/
# puppet apply -e "class {'learningpuppet::makeagent':}"
If you don’t give the class a newname
attribute, it will default to agent1
, which is probably what you want.
Step 3: Make Sure the VMs Can Communicate
For Puppet to work right, your two VMs must:
- Be able to reach each other by IP address
- Be able to reach the puppet master by name
- Have their firewalls turned off
- Have (reasonably) synchronized clocks
Ensure the VMs Can Reach Each Other by IP
With VMware Fusion
The VMs will be communicating via their eth0
IP addresses. Find these addresses by running facter ipaddress_eth0
on each system, then try to ping that IP from the other VM.
If the VMs can’t communicate, examine each VM’s settings and make sure:
- The networking mode is either NAT or Bridged.
- Both VMs have the same networking mode.
With VirtualBox
If both VMs have a single network adapter in Bridged Adapter mode (recommended), they will be communicating via their eth0
IP addresses. Find these addresses by running facter ipaddress_eth0
on each system, then try to ping that IP from the other VM.
If you have configured the VMs to have two network adapters, examine their settings — the VMs will be communicating via whichever adapter is set to Host Only Adapter mode. Run facter ipaddress_<ADAPTER>
to find these IP addresses.
Ensure the VMs Can Reach the Master by Name
Make sure both VMs’ /etc/hosts
files contain a line similar to the following:
<IP_ADDRESS> learn.localdomain learn puppet.localdomain puppet # This host is required for Puppet's name resolution to work correctly.
The IP address should be the one you found for the puppet master in the previous step.
Once you’ve edited the files, test that both VMs can ping the master at both its full name and its aliases:
[root@agent1]# ping learn.localdomain
[root@agent1]# ping puppet
If this doesn’t work, make sure that the /etc/hosts
files don’t have any conflicting lines — there should be only one line with those puppet master hostnames. If /etc/hosts
looks good, you may also need to flush cached DNS information in each VM:
# nscd --invalidate=hosts
Ensure the Firewalls are Down
We shipped the VM with iptables turned off, but it’s worth checking to make sure it’s still down:
# service iptables status
Firewall is stopped.
(In a real environment, you’d add firewall rules for Puppet traffic instead of disabling the firewall.)
Ensure Both VMs Know the Time
Run date -u
on both VMs, and compare the output. They should be within about a minute of each other.
Next
Your VMs are ready — now continue reading for a tour of the agent/master Puppet workflow.


Western Freeway crash at Bacchus Marsh leads to delays
The Western Freeway suffered severe delays on Saturday morning after a man crashed into the side of the road at Bacchus Marsh.
A police media spokesperson confirmed a man towing a trailer suffered a blown tyre before crashing, on the Ballarat-bound side just after 10am.
Lengthy delays, which may have affected people heading to the Ballarat Cup, were seen as crews worked to clear the scene.
An Ambulance Victoria spokesperson said a man in his 30s was assessed at the scene, and was taken to the Royal Melbourne Hospital in a stable condition with minor injuries.
By 12.30pm, VicTraffic's live map shows the freeway is back open.

Hi,
I am sorry for sending this edition so late, I was busy trying to launch the new Perl TV site. There are plenty of interviews, talks and presentation posted on YouTube and other video sites, but very few people know about those. I think it will be nice to share these videos. So the Perl TV site will post a new video every day. You can follow it via its Atom feed.
In other news, it turns out the Portuguese Perl Workshop was rescheduled to October 24-25. Please make sure you arrive on the right days :).
Enjoy the articles!

Underappreciated Perl Code: TAP's YAMLish Syntax
Parsing the error messages from a test script might be difficult as those include free text and were designed to be read by humans, not by computers. OTOH if you can get a well formatted version of this output then it will be possible and even easy to write a parser for them. This is what came out of the Wumpus Cave of Timm Murray.

I did not have time to listen to the actual podcast yet, but what David Cantrell writes about the distinction between Quality Control and Quality Assurance is interesting.

Perl::Critic for the Camel
Tom Christiansen started discussing the idea to create a set of Perl::Critic rules that will cover the recommendations of the Camel book (aka. Programming Perl). In case you don't know, Perl::Critic is the implementation of the recommendation from the book 'Perl Best Practices' written by Damian Conway. It is extendable and can server as a great tool to make sure your code follows recommended practices.

Real $VERSIONs on CPAN
Do you know how should a version number on CPAN look like? Not? Don't worry. Apparently there are a few other people who have very interesting ideas about how version numbers should look like.

Setting up DKIM email signatures with Perl
DKIM is one of the tools that you, as a sysadmin, mail server owner can help your users to deliver their e-mail avoiding the spam-filters and to ensure that others cannot abuse your domain by faking messages being sent from it. DKIM signs the messages on the server so the recipient will be able to verify it really came from a server authorized for the domain.
