Perfect for notes this item is perfect for keeping notes in your shirt pocket. protects shirt from ink stains and keeps notecards neat. June 29, 2015
Simple, elegant Bought three of these for my friends graduating from college and doctoral programs. Fine quality, good stitching. Intuitive pockets. A monogram is a nice touch, though typeface could be crisper. May 28, 2015
Best invention ever I've been using the pocket briefcases for at least 20 years. Stick it in a back pocket and forget about it till you need to write a reminder or an epic poem! May 10, 2015
Shirt Pocket Briefcase I was introduced to this produt many, many years ago while working in San Diego, CA. While shopping with my grandson, I loss my list, which was in my pocket briefcase. This was my memory helper asI am 65 years old and at time I forget things. I had to get a new one and it was not in any store. I called you and young lady knew what I was looking for. She told me how to find it on the computer and she took my order. She did not rush me to make an order but walked me through it and told me when it should reach me. I'm very thankful that I found what I needed and especially thanful for the way the young lady took my order. It arrived earlier than I thought and it was all because your employee took the time to help an aging customer. You can not find that in many places. Thank you for the product and your helpful employees. May 7, 2015
Deceptively helpful This is one of those items that may seem too simple to be very useful at first glance but in practice will likely make you wonder how you ever lived without it. I purchased this item on sale at the beginning of my PhD program for times where I didn't want to carry around my bigger notebook (since being without something to jot down ideas, to-do lists, or random information throughout the course of my academic day is simply not an option). It still looks like new after tons of use and many miles spent living at the bottom of my overflowing back under laptops, notebooks, and any number of other things that might damage a lower-quality product. I had previously purchased a lower-quality version of this product and ended up not using it very much because it a) covered up too much of the card, b) was ugly and therefore unappealing to whip out in life, and c) didn't really have a good place for me to store full cards. Despite that, I had started using index cards often enough (especially the Action Method cards) that I was willing to invest in a higher quality product. Am I ever glad I did! I wonder now why I took so long to get around to this quick and unobtrusive way of always having a note-taking system handy. The variety of cards offered by Levenger contribute to the amount of use that I get out of this product and I look forward to continuing to enjoy it for years to come. If you're on the fence as to whether or not its actually worth a purchase, believe me that it is! March 26, 2015
Replacement for Lost Item I had a purple Shirt Pocket Briefcase. I seemed to have lost it. Then, I couldn't find my original, not purple, Shirt Pocket Briefcase. When I saw that this was on sale, I grabbed it right up because I have found it so useful. I always have a nice card for note taking and for sharing information with others. The briefcase looks good and the cards feel substantial. It's perfect. March 13, 2015
Why is the Essential Shirt Pocket Brief not avail? I have been using the Essential Shirt Pocket Briefcase for the past 2-3 years and it is always with me. I am not anti-technology, but I would much rather physically write down my notes, grocery lists, phone numbers, To-Do lists, etc., on inexpensive 3x5 index cards. I am very glad that I bought 2 extra as backups, since Levenger stopped selling the Essential Shirt Pocket Briefcase. January 14, 2015
Great gift! Purchased this for my husband who is a super-commuter. He plans to use it to jot down project notes and reminders while on the train. We're both pleased with the quality of the product. January 1, 2015
would be lost without it! This compact,little lifesaver is a daily,organizational essential for me. I use it daily and use it throughout my day as a reference,for notes,as a reminder of meeting agenda items,important deadlines and topics to review with staff---the uses are endless. It's small size makes it so handy and portable. The surface is firm and easy to use as a support when writing notes. The look is neat and stylish. I love it! December 29, 2014
Love It! I (female) received a shirt-pocket briefcase as a gift more than 10 years ago. It's ALWAYS in my purse & provides a great writing surface for the home-printed 3x5 sheets of paper I use for calling cards or notes. I wondered when I first received it how it could possibly be of much use to me, but now I wouldn't be without it. -- And after years of use, it looks almost as good as new. December 25, 2014

52 Ancestors: #8 John Petty

Whitfield County, Georgia Probate Clerk's Office
Several days ago I came across a photo attached to John Petty in an tree. Is it my 3rd great-grandfather who died before 1900? I messaged the owner. I'm still impatiently waiting for a response. (Do you know how much I wanted to use that picture in this post?)

While I'm waiting, it seems like good time to review what I know about John Petty. The short answer is not much, despite researching on-site in three counties where he lived and another where he may have lived.

John Petty had ten children. That implies he was married. At the very least, each of those children had a mother. Was the same woman the mother of all ten children? Probably? Maybe? Does anyone know?

John lived in McMinn County, Tennessee in 1840. His household composition was 1 male 5–10, 1 male 20–30, 2 females under 5, 2 females 5–10, and 1 female 20–30. John was the adult male. His "alleged" wife was probably the adult female. The five children were probably John R. (born abt 1835), Charlotte (born Dec 1830), Caroline (born bet. 1830–1840), Martha (born abt. 1839) and an unknown daughter (who is said to have married a Milsapp).

The family is no where to be found in the 1850 census. Not in McMinn or adjacent Bradley County. Not in nearby Murray or Whitfield Counties in Georgia. (Those are the counties I've gone through page by page). And not anywhere else according to many census searches.

There is an old Petty family story (not from my family, no one in my family knew anything about John Petty—not even his name) that John's wife and Charlotte's husband, John Hambright, drowned in a flood around 1850. According to this story, the family relocated to Murray County, Georgia for a short time after their deaths. Did that happen? I don't know. Most anything is possible.

John lived in Charleston in Bradley County by 1860 with children Martha, Rash, James, Joseph, Angeline (Ann) and Mary. The children's ages ranged from twenty-one to nine. If the nine-year-old truly was nine, then her mother didn't die before 1850. Whatever happened to the children's mother(s), no other female was living with them in 1860. Caroline and the unknown daughter who married a Milsapp haven't been located in that census.

Charlotte and John R. both lived in the McMinn County community of Calhoun in 1860. Charleston and Calhoun are separated only by the Hiwassee River that serves as the border between Bradley and McMinn Counties. Charlotte Hambright had four children and no husband in the household. The youngest child was four years old so her father didn't die before 1850. Other information implies John Hambright was not that child's father. Her next youngest was nine.

John's four sons all joined Company I of the 43rd Tennessee Infantry (Confederate) at Charleston. Rash joined on 1 Dec 1862. The other three joined a year earlier on 13 Nov 1861. After being captured and released at Vicksburg, Mississippi all except John R. joined the 10th Union Cavalry.

John was in Bradley County in 1870 but possibly not in the same location as his Post Office was Cleveland rather than Charleston. Tabitha Petty (age 57, keeping house) lived with him along with ten-year-old Sarah Cassell. Was Tabitha John's wife? Perhaps. But if a marriage record exists, I haven't found it. Was she the mother of any of his children? It seems unlikely unless her absence in the 1860 census was a mistake. Who was Sarah? No clue except that John's granddaughter, Rebecca Hambright, later married Robert Castle (Cassell?).

In 1880, John was in Whitfield County, Georgia living with daughters Martha and Ann. Ann's husband, Wiley Long, and their four children were also in the household but Martha's husband, John W. Martin, had died in 1879. Martha and Ann both married in Whitfield County: Martha in 1867, Ann in 1868.

John married Elizabeth Inman, widow of William Inman, on 15 Feb 1881 in Whitfield County. Based on census records, John was born about 1809 in either Tennessee or North Carolina. He likely died before 1900.

Daughters Charlotte, Martha, and Ann remained near John but his other children scattered to Kentucky, Illinois, Arkansas and Texas. A couple later returned to the area where they grew-up.

Rash married Sarah Ann Foster (probably not her maiden name) in 1865 in Bradley County and they settled in Blount County, Tennessee. James married Sarah Longwith there that same year. They stayed in Bradley County for several years before moving to Washington County, Arkansas.

John R. married Margaret E. Thomas in Whitfield County in 1857. From McMinn County, they moved to Whitfield County before relocating to Logan County, Kentucky and then to nearby Hopkins County. Joseph also went to Logan County—likely with John R. Once there, he married Margaret's sister, Nancy, in 1869. John R. returned to Whitfield County around the time of Margaret's death in 1876 and married Mary C. Bohannan in 1878. Joseph and Nancy eventually left Logan County for Texas—Lamar and Bowie Counties.

After marrying John Cooper in Webster County, Kentucky, in 1869, Mary and her family lived in Johnson County, Illinois. They later moved near her sisters in Whitfield County. Caroline and her husband, Lemuel Young, gave consent for Mary to marry in Webster County, Kentucky. No other records for Caroline have been found. The unknown daughter who may have married a Milsapp remains unknown.

Written for 52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks challenge at No Story Too Small.

John was my 3rd great-grandfather through his son, John R. Petty.

Worship Internships

With a mission to train champions for Christ in all fields of study, Liberty University’s Center for Music and Worship, holds at its core, the desire to train and equip worship leaders for the evangelical community.  The Center for Music and Worship students are a part of a movement devoted to teaching God’s people of the twenty-first century how to worship in spirit and truth.  The need for students to acquire practical, hands-on experience is a natural extension of the worship degree.  An internship is the summit of the student’s preparation and is essential to their development in becoming a minister of the gospel of Jesus Christ.  For the last seven years, Center for Music and Worship students have participated in internships all over the United States and abroad.  Students have served in churches in more than twenty-five states as well as, Korea, Germany, and Canada.  Our desire is to serve the Church, both locally and globally.

The internship is a win-win opportunity for students and local ministries.  Our internships allow churches, ministers of music, pastors, and congregations to invest in the lives of some of the brightest and most gifted musicians.  This internship also clearly benefits our students as it provides much needed opportunities for them to be mentored and trained by professionals in ministry.  This ten-week mentoring experience is strategically designed for churches seeking to engage aspiring worship leaders in meaningful ministry opportunities.

More Information

“We believe God's calling on worship leaders includes responding to the demands of a broad, culturally diverse evangelical community. This calling is not based on stylistic musical preference. Rather, it is founded on this principle: When God calls a person to lead worship; He calls them to meet the worship needs of His people - young and old alike.” – Dr. Vernon Whaley, Dean of the Liberty University School of Music

Product Reviews

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Beautiful Mirror Beautiful and good quality wood framed mirror. Bought for use in guest bathroom...and it's perfect. You do have to be very exact with your measurements when hanging it, though. The mounting feels much more solid than the old way with a wire across the back, but with this system there's no sliding the mirror to adjust position or level after it's hung.

Let the Darkness Fear

Boo: I don’t think they really want us to set the church on fire.
Me: Yeah I don’t either. What do you think it means?
Boo: I think just to be really excited about God.

This is one of our favorite songs:

I love the words:

Build Your kingdom here
Let the darkness fear
Show Your mighty hand
Heal our streets and land
Set Your church on fire
Win this nation back
Change the atmosphere
Build Your kingdom here
We pray

Tonight we had our usual Friday night dinner at a local pizza place.  I’d met a homeless woman the other day in a different place and she was sitting right there in front of me again.  I said her name and she looked up in disbelief.  I asked her if she’d eaten today and she said she hadn’t.  She said she was having a hard time finding things. I drew her a detailed map of the neighborhood and asked the waitress for a box to take the woman some dinner.  The waitress brought me a plate, utensils and napkins instead so that the woman would have a proper setting.

We ate dinner and the family sitting in the booth next to us said a long prayer over their own meal.  Boo had said her school’s prayer over ours.  Sometimes I feel like there’s so much light in the world….the darkness should be very afraid.

As we left I introduced Mr. LBB and Boo to the woman outside on the bench.  I want Boo to see people, all people. The woman asked if we had cigarettes but then before we could answer she said it didn’t look like we smoked.  Thank you for thinking of me tonight.  God bless you. Now I feel like we didn’t do enough for her.  I told her maybe I’d see her at breakfast tomorrow.  I’ll see if God works that one out. I have a feeling he will and I’ll run into her again.

Me: You know Lynn was once just a little girl like you.
Boo: Everyone was once little like me Mommy.

Increase in us we pray
Unveil why we’re made
Come set our hearts ablaze with hope
Like wildfire in our very souls

    I hope I raise my children to truly see ppl. you are a wonderful inspiration.

  3. Ashley says

    Ashley, you have the kindest heart and the things you are teaching Boo just give me so much hope for our world.

  4. Reta Russell-Houghton says

    Children can be so intelligent, insightful and aware of the world around us that it will surprise us.

  5. Marni says

    You continue to show us how much good there is in the world – I had tears in my eyes a I read it. We are in Canada visiting at the moment and we are not used to quite the same homelessness where we live and it is quite eye opening. I take my hat off to you, your hubby and your little girl who has definitely been here before, xxx

Every morning you should wake up and say, this is the day the lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it, God will be holding my hand through this day, and the holy spirit will guide my speach and thoughts daily.

    love this!!

    and btw- my husband regularly gives rides and money to folks he sees. sometimes the last $10 in his wallet!

  11. Amie says

    Just beautiful. Boo is going to be such a bright light in this world because she has a mother like you. I pray that I too can teach the same to my boys.

  12. Cecilia says

October 14, 2005

If you have the time and inclination, could you share a picture that shows these pudding bowls more clearly? Chances are slim that I'll make pudding, but I'll definately enjoy a vicarious thrift store find.

zp- I will try to do that this weekend. (As you may have gathered, I am not a fabulous photographer.)
The English one is Carlton Ware, the little one is Hall. Both are commercial promotional things, though I'm not sure what the big one is advertising. The little one has a sprig of holly on the front and comes from a restaurant called "The English Chop House."
It apparently still exists, in NYC, under the name "The English Steak House." (The old name was better, I think, especially since they are famous for their giant mutton chop. In fact, they have been lauded in The Village Voice, for the "best mutton chop" in town.)
Perhaps more than you wanted to know?

Oh wow. My brother would have loved this. It is a pudding my grandfather would yearn for but alas his american bride could not duplicate. His next favorite, of course, was mincemeat. Very nice memories!

HP Pavilion dv9500t

This is a guide to running Linux with the Hewlett-Packard Pavilion dv9500t laptop.

This guide is intended to provide you details on how well this laptop works with Linux and which modules you need to configure. For details on how to actually install and configure the required modules have a look at our guides section for distribution specific instructions.

For the NVIDIA GeForce 8600M found in the Pavilion dv9500t does not currently work with the open source 'nv' module so you will need to use the proprietary 'nvidia' module. For installation instructions, you can view our Configuring a nVidia graphics chip guide.

For the sound to function with the dv9500t you need to install ALSA version 1.0.15rc3 or greater. Unfortunately no currently Linux distribution includes this as default so you will need to compile and install this driver yourself. The upcoming Ubuntu 7.10 will not have this issue.

The Intel 4965AGN included with the dv9500t can be quite difficult to configure depending on the Linux distribution used. See the guide below for more details about this. An up to date Fedora 7 installation (one with all the latest updates) and the upcoming Ubuntu 7.10 supports this wireless controller as standard.

Currently the HP Pavilion dv9500t is quite difficult to configure at the moment as quite a bit of work is required. However upcoming Linux distributions should solve these issues.

Discharged Female Cadet Sues Aussie Gov't for Sexual Harassment

Discharged Female Cadet Sues Aussie Gov't for Sexual Harassment

Today in international tech news: A former member of the Australian Defense Force plans to sue the government over a Skype-streamed sexual encounter with a fellow cadet. Also: eBay apologizes for Holocaust-related auction items; Swisscom to build a less vulnerable cloud; and a mammoth patent lawsuit takes shape.

By David Vranicar TechNewsWorld ECT News Network
Nov 4, 2013 8:58 AM PT

An Australian woman formerly in the Australian Defense Force said that she plans to sue the nation's federal government for grievances stemming from a sordid saga in which a fellow cadet filmed the two of them having sex and then streamed it via Skype.

The woman, known in the media as "Kate," said she will file suit against the defense department in the Australian Human Rights Commission. She alleged that she was sexually harassed and subsequently victimized for speaking out.

"It's basically been hell for me and my family," she told Australian media.

Kate's story has led to a series of reviews into the ADF's treatment of women. The nation's army chief said in June that more than 100 Defense Force personnel were being investigated for degrading emails involving up to 10 women.

eBay Apologizes for Holocaust Artifacts

eBay removed 30 items from its website and issued an apology after people realized the site was hosting auctions for artifacts once owned by Holocaust victims.

The items in question included a uniform purported to have belonged to a Polish baker who died in Auschwitz; it was on sale for more than US$17,000. Other items included shoes and a toothbrush of a victim, as well as Star of David armbands.

In addition to saying it was "very sorry," eBay noted that it doesn't allow such items on its site, and that it dedicates "thousands of staff to policing" for such objectionable material. The company padded its apology with a charitable donation of nearly $40,000.

Swisscom Says Its New Cloud Is Safe(r)

Like its neighbors to the north, Switzerland is trying to turn data collection fears into a marketing tool.

Swiss telecom Swisscom is building a cloud service that will be able to shield sensitive data from prying foreign eyes.

Swisscom's head of IT services said that the company's decision to set up a safe, domestic cloud was unrelated to NSA revelations, but the timing seems fortuitous: a groundswell of data angst and a cloud that claims to protect data from snoopers.

Swiss providers might be in a better position, legally speaking, to protect data than their American counterparts. Unlike in the U.S., where government authorities are reportedly snooping on companies without the companies' knowledge, Swiss law requires a prosecutor to file a formal request, which would then have to be received by Swisscom. So, it's possible for the data to be accessed to a third party -- just harder.

Swisscom is currently focusing on Switzerland-based clients but said it could expand should foreign companies show demand.

Mammoth Lawsuit Takes Shape

The Rockstar Consortium, a group of tech heavyweights, is suing Google, Samsung, HTC and more because of alleged mobile phone patent infringements.

Rockstar is going after manufacturers of Android devices, claiming that Google infringed seven patents relating to how Internet search terms match advertising. Android devices accounted for more than 80 percent of smartphone shipments in the third quarter of this year.

Rockstar is jointly owned by Apple, Microsoft, BlackBerry, Ericsson and Sony, so this lawsuit includes most all of the big boys.

Last month, Samsung offered to quit making patent infringement allegations for five years after European Union authorities complained that the company was a bit too sue-happy.

Samsung and Apple are engaged in lawsuits in more than 10 European nations.

On the Internet, one can find a mass of information that is often organized into very different kinds of directories. The first attempt to establish a standard for directories was made by X.500, an address book designed to provide mail addresses for the X.400 mail application. To retrieve data from this directory, the directory access protocol (DAP) was used, but it was something of a heavyweight.

Other directories were later developed, and although often quite different, most had in common a base in the X.500 standard. There also came a new protocol to retrieve data, the lightweight directory access protocol (LDAP), which nowadays can be used on almost any computer platform to get data out of almost every X.500-compatible directory.

The use of this lightweight directory access protocol will be examined in this article. First we'll take a look at the composition of the directory from which one can access data using LDAP, then we will take a look at how this protocol can be used for Linux. Finally, I will explain how you can even use an LDAP directory to authenticate users on your system, which can be an interesting alternative to network information service (NIS).

LDAP can be used to get information from an X.500-compatible directory. This directory is a hierarchically organized database in which different kinds of data are made accessible. Often it is used to store names and mail addresses, but you can also keep information about resources on the network or everything needed to authenticate users on your Linux computers. The hierarchy of the directory is created by the use of container objects, which are also referred to as directory components (DCs). These DCs can be compared to the domains used in the DNS hierarchy. The LDAP containers even can be linked to DNS domains; so if your company has a registered DNS domain name, like, you can make LDAP organizational units to obtain names, such as ou=training, dc=azlan, dc=com.

In the container objects are the leaf objects, also referred to as entries because they are actually nothing more than entries in the LDAP database. An example of such a leaf object is a user with his or her associated mail address and, if you like, all the other information needed to authenticate this user on your system. Each of these entries has a unique name, called the distinguished name (DN). For example, the user Paul in the training department at Azlan, which has a registered .com domain, gets the distinguished name of cn=Paul, ou=training, dc=azlan, dc=com. Besides that, the entry has a common name (CN), a unique identifier of the object in its container; you can compare that to a person's surname.

All these objects have attributes that define the information associated with the object; a user object, for example, can have such attributes as an e-mail address and a password. If you want to use LDAP to authenticate Linux users, it is important that these attributes have the proper values. That is, you need an attribute that represents the UID field from /etc/passwd if you want to be able to use your Linux resources. The exact definition of the entries, the place where they can occur in the directory and the attributes associated with them, is done in the schema. In Linux, the entries are defined in the file slapd.oc.conf and the attributes in

The common data format used to get information into the LDAP database is the LDAP data interchange format (LDIF). If you want to use it, it is very important that mandatory attributes for each of the entries are specified; if not, you get some nasty error codes when you try to define the objects. Mandatory attributes are defined in spad.oc.conf.

In Linux, probably the most used LDAP implementation is OpenLDAP ( Proprietary directories are available that are LDAP-compatible, such as Novell's eDirectory or Netscape's directory. After installation of OpenLDAP on Linux, (often part of a default server installation) some files are copied to your system. Before we take a look at the actual configuration, let's get an overview of the different files copied.

The most important program file that is part of your LDAP installation is the dæmon slapd, the standalone LDAP dæmon. This is the process you need to activate if you want all the goods of LDAP on your system. If you use more than one LDAP server on your network, and you want to replicate data between these servers, you also need slurpd. slurpd is the process that replicates data from an LDAP master server to one or more LDAP slave servers.

To configure your LDAP server, of course, you need to edit some configuration files. Most of them are in /etc/openldap, but pay attention. Sometimes the same files are also in other directories, such as /etc, which can make it hard to get a good configuration. If the files in /etc/openldap exist in more than one location, I personally prefer to keep only the files in /etc/openldap and make links to them at all other locations.

The most important configuration file is slapd.conf; you can specify almost all the behavior of slapd in it, and it is the file you want to edit before you run slapd. Besides slapd.conf, there are two files in which the schema is kept: slapd.oc.conf and In most cases you don't need to do anything with these; they are good as they are. In some cases, however, you do need to edit them in order for an application to work. The last configuration file is ldap.conf; it is a small but important file used on an LDAP client to identify the server from which the client needs to get its data.

Besides these configuration files, there are some commands you can use to get data in your directory and to test if there's actually anything in it. ldapadd is used to add data to the directory, ldapmodify to modify attributes of existing entries and ldapsearch to find some specific entries. With these and a few other commands, you can manipulate data in your directory by means of LDIF files.

The last files we'll talk about are the modules that are used if you want to get your system to authenticate on an LDAP server. They are part of other software packages, so they are not always installed on your system. The module that's used by the nameservice switch is called nss_ldap. You need to specify in /etc/nsswitch.conf that you want to retrieve information from an LDAP directory instead of, for example, /etc/passwd. Another important module is pam_ldap. This is the module you need in Linux to let your users authenticate on an LDAP database, by means of the pluggable authentication modules (PAM). In fact, it's not difficult to configure an LDAP directory on your system. Only four steps are needed to complete setup.

Re: indepth and pam_mkhomedir

Anonymous's picture

There is better alternative to using pam_mkhomedir which suffers following limitations. Check this at

1) There are some applications which never need to authenticate users
But they need home dirs. -- for example smtp servers which deliver mail to home.

2) Some do use other ways to authenticate, bypassing pam all together.

3) Servers must be root so that pam can creates home dirs. Otherwise
make /home silimiar in permissions to /tmp -- famous sshd problem

Free Range, not Free Beer

I was eating breakfast in my favorite restaurant today and I noticed a sign up on the wall that said: "Free Range Eggs, $4.00 per dozen"

Now at first I had the common knee-jerk reaction to the word "Free" that everyone does, thinking of the concept of "gratis". Then I realized that the word "Free" was related to "Range" and not the price of the eggs.

I mentioned this issue to the restaurant owner, suggesting that she change the name to "Open Range Eggs", which would then eliminate the problem of people thinking the eggs were gratis. "That is silly," she said, "everyone calls them 'Free Range Eggs'. Everyone knows that chickens are happier when they can run where they want to run, scratch for grubs where they want to scratch, and generally be free to do what they want. And people are willing to pay more for eggs that come from that type of a situation."

The restaurant owner went on to say that it does cost more to produce "Free Range Eggs" than by having chickens raised in small cages in a manufactured situation, since you have to gather the eggs, fence in a larger areas, etc. but the populace seems to think that the eggs from "Free Range" are better, and are willing to pay more for them.

Finally she asked why I suggested the term "Open Range Eggs", and I said that it was only to help eliminate the confusion of people who think that the eggs should be zero cost. "I can not deal with those type of people", said the store owner. "They only are looking for an excuse not to have to pay for the eggs. Most people understand that the chickens have to be fed, the egg gatherers have to be paid, their are heating charges for the hen-house and that it costs money to transport the eggs. Some people help us out, so they get some eggs in exchange for their work, but we have to charge money for our eggs. People who don't acknowledge that just do not want to understand the term 'Free Range' for what it really means.....better eggs, and changing the term will not help that. So we will continue to just educate people on what the term 'Free Range' means to the egg community."

So we continue to educate people about Free Software and those who wish to understand it, will understand it almost immediately.

Those who do not wish to understand the concept of Free Software will never understand it.

Eggs anyone?

Other languages (french in

Anonymous's picture

Other languages (french in my case) don't have the free vs Free problem and the understanding of Free Software is the same as in english. Those who understands what "Logiciels Libres" are do it almost immediatly and those who don't always mix "Libre" with "gratuit". And I'm not even talking about those who don't wish to understand. So it's really not just a question of vocabulary.

Scacho's picture

I don't get this article. The "free" in free software is supposed to mean freedom, just like the "free" in free range. What's the problem?

Now, if you'll excuse me, I think I'll go back to watching paint dry.

HAHA! You know I had to think

Los Angeles Tax Lawyer's picture

HAHA! You know I had to think about the post for a few minutes. Then it hit me, the author really has a problem with Free-Range using the word "Free" instead of "Open". I guess if you weren't familiar with the concept it could be confusing, but nowadays most people know that free-range means the animal being referred to was 'free to range' about the land.

What color is the paint we are watching?

Free range isn't what you think

dontodd's picture

Free range is a labelling term that is basically useless. It means that after chickens are kept in their cages for a couple of weeks, without being allowed to go outside (to protect them from disease and predators), they are then allowed to go out and scratch in a small space, if they so choose. Of course after a couple of weeks of being cooped up, they often don't make that choice.

What the restauranteur and consumers should be looking for are eggs from pastured chickens. Yeah, no government labelling stamp of approval, but it's a more accurate reflection of what people imagine when they hear the term "free range."

Free-range,pastured, -useless, misleading terms!

Anonymous's picture

This free-range designation is just a warm and fuzzy ploy to sell sub-organic quality eggs to conscientious consumers at the much higher organic prices.
Organic standards require free-range, pastured. Additionally, and what is responsible for most of the extra expense of organic egg production, is the fact that organic egg producing chickens cannot be fed "genetically-modified" feed (GMO/Frankenfood),typically GM soy.
So, eggs advertised/presented as free-range that don't have the official USDA organic label are engaging in subterfuge to pass off their frankenfood raised eggs to unsuspecting consumers at organic prices.
Just as with the difference between free software and open source, the difference/devil is, in deed, in the details.

"Organic" food

Tweenk's picture

"Organic food" is the dumbest term ever invented. I have no problems with calling this ecological food, sustainable food, or about anything else, but "organic food" is plain stupid. I bet nobody is able to live off non-organic food unless one is a plant, because "organic" means "of biological origin" or "containing specific carbon compounds" (I could elaborate further on the latter one, but there's no point).

As an off-topic note, bullshitting people that GM food is in some way directly harmful to their health is also stupid (I don't imply that anyone is doing this here, because nobody said something like that). I acknowledge that it can create economical and social problems because of the monopolization it can cause, and some GM species can disrupt the ecological balance, but the preconception that it's unhealthy to eat is baseless.

Polish also doesn't have the free-speech/free-beer confusion. Instead, there's confusion between "free" and "slow", so "free software" becomes "slow software". :) Additionally, the equivalent of the abbreviation "FOSS" is "WiOO", which is also an exclamation used to hurry a horse.

This is what really gets me

Anonymous's picture

This is what really gets me about libertarian dogma. Clearly there is market demand for eggs produced by chickens that are pastured, and yet instead of actually doing so, the "invisible hand of the market" looks for ways to essentially confuse the issue (inventing the term "free range", for example) and make people think they are getting something when they aren't. Ask any libertarian about this and they will just shrug their shoulders and rationalize it away as a exception to the rule, but just take a good look at any industry out there and what you will see is that the "invisible rule of the market" is to cut corners and to use misleading advertising and promotion to increase profit. I am most certainly not opposed to capitalism, but libertarian dogma has far too high of a status in the open source community than it deserves. Like communism, it is a philosophy that sounds great on paper, but could never really work in the real world.

Free what?

Anonymous's picture

Strange, that is never my first reaction - probably because I am not American.
If you look it up on, you will find that, in various dictionaries, the most common meaning of the word free is usually something like "enjoying personal rights or liberty, as a person who is not in slavery: a land of free people", "pertaining to or reserved for those who enjoy personal liberty: They were thankful to be living on free soil", etc. That was always what it meant to me anyway, but somehow its meaning in everyday English has shifted towards "free as in beer". I wonder if that could be the result of the commercialization of everything; too much advertizing I guess...

It has nothing to do with

Anonymous's picture

It has nothing to do with being American. We simply have no term in common usage other than "free" to describe something having no monetary cost. To the best of my knowledge, the British don't have one either.

Free gratis seldom exists

P.Woods's picture

Commercialisation kills everything.
How often do you see "Free gift with this product"?
It is never free!
It may be INCLUDED in the deal, but that ain't FREE!

Need to invent a word or import one!

TK's picture

Like you say, English simply doesn't have a simple word like other languages to distinguish between "gratis" and "libre". I'm starting to make a habit of using "Free" with a capital 'F' when writing about "free as in freedom", and "free" with a small 'f' when writing about "free as in beer".

The problem comes when speaking about either one.

Perhaps it's time to invent a word, use it for a year, and submit it to the dictionaries. :)

Good idea...

Anonymous's picture

Semper Liber, or just Liber.

Just a couple of ideas. Latin tends to make the meaning clearer than English for me, at any rate.

Cute. :)

Shawn Powers's picture

That's a cute analogy to the Free Software idea. One of the things that makes the distinction so difficult for people to see regarding software is that almost ALWAYS, the software doesn't cost anything either.

Like I've mentioned before, I do "get it" myself when it comes to the idea of Free Software. Since people can go and download so many open source programs for free, however, it makes for a subtle (albeit important) distinction.

Shawn Powers is a Linux Journal Associate Editor. You might find him on IRC, Twitter, or training IT pros at CBT Nuggets.

I tell people it's Free Software

tracyanne's picture

And that it often doesn't cost anything either. That usually gets their attention.

It makes sense

Anonymous's picture

it makes a lot of sense the answer you got...and the comparation with the "free software" makes no sense in my opinion. The 2 things are completely different :D

Failover with webserver with private SSL certs

I have two servers that I've set up, and I've been researching a way to set up automatic failover/clustering. This does not seem difficult to do, with one exception.

SSL certs. An SSL cert is bound to one IP only. How do I set up clustering so that I can host my sites with SSL certs? Do I just buy two certs and keep a slightly different version of my site on each server in case of failure? I plan on using rsync to keep the majority of the pages and databases current between systems.

I'm looking at using the Hercules Load Balancer Virtual Appliance (based on pen) posted on vmware's site (

Is there another method that is out there that I'm not seeing that doesn't cost an arm and a leg?

Thanks for the help!

It is not bound to one ip at all. That relationship is one https server can only reference one certificate. you can put that certificate on as many boxes as you feel like, but all of those boxes can only serve the same website over https.

Perhaps I was getting that confused with the fact that you can only have one SSL cert per IP without problems. This has to do with the fact that port 443 will serv up the first available website for that IP, correct? SSL certs cannot properly handle vhost name-based configurations.

Turns out that you *can* buy a cert to be permanently bound to only one IP, but it's not required. I didn't find that info in my last few searches.

I've got about 8 IPs to play with on each server.

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. This certainly simplifies matters.

Question Install linux to degradated raid

I have a server with one hard disk, so, later I will add another one. Now I want to install RHES to degradated RAID 1, using anaconda kickstart. Later I will add one more hard drive and get fully redundant RAID 1. So, how to install RHES using kickstart to degradated raid?

This is a hardware question specific to your BIOS and RAID controller implementation?

Or are you attempting to do this with a software RAID implementation?

Regardless, it does not sound advisable, to me. What is the holdup on getting the second disk? Can't you just wait to have a stable disk array?

Alternately, you could install the OS to the single disk without RAID, backup the install, and migrate it once you get your second disk.

anaconda, raid

1997 Abstract

9712-1143 Cook

Cook WR Jr.
Laser neck and jowl liposculpture including platysma laser resurfacing, dermal
laser resurfacing, and vaporization of subcutaneous fat. Dermatol Surg. 1997 Dec;23(12):1143-8.
PMID: 9426658

Comment in:
Dermatol Surg. 1998 May;24(5):596-7.

Coronado Skin Medical Center, Inc., California, USA.

BACKGROUND: Submental tumescent liposculpture alone is not able to achieve the
results of rhytidectomy. OBJECTIVE: To improve the results of submental
tumescent liposculpture new laser techniques were developed to provide maximum
cosmetic results with minimal disability and rapid recovery. METHODS: Extensive
tumescent liposculpture of the lower face, jowls, neck, and subplatysma was
performed on 100 patients. Platysma fascia and undersurface of the dermis of the
neck were laser resurfaced. Septae and platysma insertions were separated.
Subcutaneous fat was laser vaporized. Platysma muscle was plicated. Where
indicated, a chin implant was inserted. RESULTS: Clinical results far superior
to tumescent liposculpture alone included improved cervico-mental angle and
marked reduction in laxity of the neck skin, platysma banding, and horizontal
neck creases. Patients recovered rapidly with minimal to no bruising, scarring,
or pain. CONCLUSION: Laser neck and jowl liposculpture produces superior results
to standard submental tumescent liposculpture with no increase in recovery time
and no complications to date.

19.6.4 Other miscellaneous functions

Graph panes require a function which is used to plot information, called the children function. The value of the ROOTS attribute of a graph is passed as an argument to the children function in order to start the plot. The example interface uses the following simple children function. You already defined this if you have followed the example, but add it also in ib-callbacks.lisp :

(defun children-function (x)
  (when (< x 8)
    (list (* x 2) (1+ (* x 2)))))

Note: The ROOTS attribute of a graph pane has a default value of (1) . This is generated automatically by the Interface Builder.

Finally, the function test-ib-example is used to create an instance of the example interface.

(defun test-ib-example ()
  (capi:display (make-instance 'ib-example
                               :best-height 300
