The Spider #22 Audiobook
Dragon Lord of the Underworld
by Norvell W. Page writing as Grant Stockbridge
Read by Nick Santa Maria
In the heart of New York’s Chinatown, on his imperial throne, guarded by swordsmen and gunmen and a labyrinth of death traps, sat the Arch-Criminal of all time. Master of life and death, of disease, of horrible, crawling things — the Emperor of Vermin released destruction over city and nation. The Spider, Master of Men, champion of humanity, fought with every ounce of his cunning, against the monster who personified evil incarnate — while one faithful servant gave his life in this, the Spider’s most bitter, hopeless battle, and Nita herself was faced with a doom more ghastly than any criminal mind had conceived before!
For ten grim years, the Spider battled the underworld, imprinting his scarlet seal on the bodies of the criminals he slew. No one knew his name. His face was unknown. Pursued by the police, sought by the mob, the Master of Men crushed crime with a blazing intensity never witnessed before or since. Now he’s back with a vengeance in a new series of audiobooks retelling his pulp-pounding exploits.
Never before or since has there been a hero like the Spider. Driven, hunted, and violently committed to exterminating criminals of all calibers. A self-appointed savior of humanity, driven manic-depressive, and possibly undiagnosed paranoid schizophrenic, the Spider was known as the Master of Men.
“There’s a madness that gets in me when the Spider walks....” Wentworth once admitted.
The most compelling of the classic pulp heroes, Richard Wentworth had a fiancé, a coterie of equally committed aides, and a tense relationship with New York Police Commissioner Stanley Kirkpatrick, Wentworth’s best friend, but also a dedicated lawman sworn to send the Spider to the electric chair—no matter who he turns out to be.
Nick Santa Maria again takes on the dual role of Richard Wentworth, aka the Spider, Master of Men, for this powerful story. Dragon Lord of the Underworld originally published in The Spider magazine, July, 1935.

Pulse Pounding Spider Adventure! March 13, 2016
Reviewer: Joseph Baneth Allen from Jacksonville, FL United States
In this outing of The Spider , Richard Wentworth is offered a rather tempting bargain by an arch-criminal who wants to bring the United States to its knees by unleashing a deadly horde of spiders, snakes, and other deadly insects and plagues.  If The Spider agrees not to pursue him, then the Emperor of Vermin will leave the United States crime free after a five year reign.  As a gesture of his good will, the Dragon Lord has Nita released after she had been captured by one of his men and has that man tortured to death in earshot of The Spider.
Though strongly tempted, Wentworth refuses the Dragon Lord's offer and a deadly match of wits begins - resulting in - SPOILER ALERT - the rather violent death of Professor Brownlee by minions of the Dragon Lord.
Nita is also badly tortured by a mobster's girlfriend seeking vengeance for her lover's death.
Not for the faint of heart.

Fox two shots off Australian PGA lead

6:58 am on 2 December 2016

The Auckland golfer Ryan Fox is two shots off the lead heading into the second round of the $1.5 million dollar Australian PGA Championship on the Gold Coast.

Queenslander Andrew Dodt took the honours on the opening day, but his two-shot lead could be short-lived.

Only an afternoon storm stopped American Harold Varner III's assault on the leaderboard, the 26-year-old set to resume at five under on the 15th hole early this morning after the dangerous weather ended play prematurely.

The world number 191 birdied four consecutive holes midway through his round, and then another on the 13th to leave him equal with countryman Julian Suri and Fox - who each carded five-under-par 67s.

Australian Adam Scott is one shot behind the trio, buoyed after birdies on his final three holes to sit in a six-way tie for fifth at four under.

New Zealand's top golfer Danny Lee is four shots off the lead in a tie for 11th.

"Legends of Oz: Dorothy's Return" movie quotes bring the classic story of "Dorothy of Oz" by Roger Stanton Baum to the big screen for a computer generated film. The musical, based on the original "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" by L. Frank Baum, was written by Adam Balsam and Randi Barnes. Directed by Will Finn and Dan St. Pierre, "Legends of Oz: Dorothy's Return" opened in the United States on May 9, 2014.

In "Legends of Oz: Dorothy's Return," Dorothy Gale (voiced by Lea Michele) returns to Oz to find that the Scarecrow (voiced by Dan Aykroyd), Tin Man (voiced by Kelsey Grammer) and Cowardly Lion (voiced by Jim Belushi) are under threat from a wicked Jester (voiced by Martin Short). The Jester is so powerful that not even the great and powerful Glinda (voiced by Bernadette Peters) can save them.

The only one who can save them is Dorothy who along with new friends, including Wiser the Owl (voiced by Oliver Platt), China Princess (voiced by Megan Hilty) and Marshal Mallow (voiced by Hugh Dancy), work to save the people of Oz from the evil Jester.

"Legends of Oz: Dorothy's Return" joins theaters already packed with other great movies like "Neighbors," "Belle," "Walk of Shame," "The Amazing Spider-Man 2," "Locke," "Brick Mansions," "The Other Woman," "Transcendence," "A Haunted House 2," "Heaven is for Real," "Draft Day," "Under the Skin," "Dom Hemingway," "Joe," "Captain America: The Winter Soldier," "Sabotage," "Noah," "Blood Ties," the "Veronica Mars" movie, "Need for Speed."

Scarecrow: "Thank you both for coming. Emerald City needs all the heart and courage it can get right now."
Cowardly Lion: "I got your back, straw man. You can count on us!"
Scarecrow: "Scarecrow to Dorothy. Come in, Dorothy. … Hi, kiddo! An evil Jester is threatening us, and you are the only one who can help us!"

When Oz comes under attack, the Scarecrow summons the Cowardly Lion and Tin Man to the Emerald City. He just needs one more person to take down the Jester: Dorothy.

Scarecrow: "I have a brilliant plan! Run!"
Cowardly Lion: "Run? That's the plan?"

When the flying monkeys attack, the Scarecrow shares his plan, for them to run. While the Cowardly Lion isn't impressed by that plan, he shouldn't be surprised. The Scarecrow, not too long ago, was going through life without a brain.

Glinda: "My, but you're silly."
Jester: "It's a costume, isn't it? It's my curse, literally. I can't take this off ever."

Not that it's license to terrorize Oz, but as the Jester explains to Glinda, he is cursed and cannot change, either who he is or what he wears, on his own.

Mary J. Blige

New Music: Mary J. Blige – ‘Bounce Back 2.0’

After celebrating her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and her 47th birthday, Mary J. Blige unleashes a “Time’s Up” anthem, “Bounce Back 2.0.”

The motivational track kicks off with an empowering message for women in the wake of the Time’s Up movement, which is meant to promote the end of discrimination, harassment, and assault. “Ladies, let me tell you something,” she sings. “We’ve come too far to lose / We’ll win this battle.”

The Mudbound actress’ inspirational words continue as she describes triumph after tragedy on the track, which she first previewed back in December. “Look what we’re made of,” she adds. “Beautiful scars on us / This life is what we make it / Won’t change a thing / Ain’t worried about it, no.”

The song was released on SoundCloud with the caption: “#TimesUp. Its Time to Bounce Back.”

Yesterday, Mary was honored by family and friends including Diddy, Tyrese, and Jimmy Iovine at her Walk of Fame ceremony. Action Bronson also paid homage to the Queen of Hip-Hop Soul with a musical tribute. The host of Viceland’s “The Untitled Action Bronson Show” remixed the My Life classic “I’m Going Down” for Spotify.

“I’m not a singer,” he said before belting out the ’90s R&B anthem, which is a cover of Rose Royce’s 1976 single of the same name. “So I’m gonna give the best vocal performance I possibly can off the couch.”

OBJECTIVE: Bipolar disorder has a wide range of clinical manifestations which may progress over time. The aim of this study was to test the applicability of a clinical staging model for bipolar disorder and to gain insight into the nature of the variables influencing progression through consecutive stages. METHODS: Using retrospectively reported longitudinal life chart data of 99 subjects from the Stanley Foundation Bipolar Network Naturalistic Follow-up Study, the occurrence, duration and timely sequence of stages 2 - 4 were determined per month...

OBJECTIVE: Widespread functional and structural alterations in the brain have been extensively reported in unaffected relatives (RELs) of patients with bipolar disorder (BD) that are at genetic risk for BD. A sufficiently powered meta-analysis of structural (sMRI) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) alterations in RELs is still lacking. METHODS: Functional and structural magnetic resonance imaging studies investigating RELs and healthy controls (HCs) published by July 2017 were included in the meta-analyses...

There is evidence to suggest that darkness may have therapeutic effects for mania. For example, darkness therapy with 14 hours of enforced darkness and rest from 6 p.m. to 8 a.m. in a light-sealed isolation room of the ward was proven effective for alleviating manic symptoms in a pilot study1 . Subsequently, a placebo-controlled trial examined the use of blue-blocking (BB) glasses as an add-on treatment for reducing symptoms of mania2 because wearing orange glasses (blue-blockers) in white-light environments has been shown to preserve melatonin production3 ...

OBJECTIVES: Five affective temperaments are regarded as potential precursors of bipolar disorder. These are depressive, cyclothymic, hyperthymic, irritable, and anxious temperaments. However, the neural substrates underlying these temperaments have not been identified. The aim of this study was to determine whether these temperaments are associated with specific neural substrates related to the brain white matter integrity in healthy participants. METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional neuroimaging study of 71 healthy participants (38 males and 33 females) with affective temperaments...

C9Orf72 hexanucelotide repeat expansions have been associated with ALS and FTD. Although various psychiatric symptoms have been described in patients with C9Orf72 hexanucleotide repeat expansions, the full clinical spectrum has not yet been elucidated. There is increasing evidence that inflammation plays a role in the disease progression of ALS and FTD (1) and immune dysfunction is strongly associated with bipolar disorder. We present a case in which we hypothesize that inflammation may trigger a secondary mania as an expression of latent FTD/ALS in an older male C9orf72 hexanucleotide repeat expansion carrier...

OBJECTIVES: A sizable fraction of people with bipolar I disorder (BDI) experience a deteriorating clinical course with increasingly frequent mood episodes and chronic disability. This is believed to result from neurobiological illness progression, or neuroprogression. Excessive weight gain predicts neuroprogression across multiple brain illnesses, but no prospective studies have investigated this in BDI. The objective of this study was to determine whether BDI patients who experienced clinically significant weight gain (CSWG; gaining ≥7% of baseline weight) over 12 months had greater 12-month brain volume loss in frontal and temporal regions important to BDI...

OBJECTIVES: The role of the 'mirror neuron system' (MNS) in the pathophysiology of mood disorders is not well studied. Given its posited role in the often-impaired socio-emotional processes like intention detection, empathy, and imitation, we compared putative MNS-activity in patients with bipolar mania and healthy comparison subjects. We also examined the association between putative MNS-activity and hyper-imitative behaviors in patients. METHODS: We studied 39 medication-free individuals diagnosed with mania and 45 healthy comparison subjects...

OBJECTIVES: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is excessive and premature among individuals with bipolar disorder (BD). Cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR), reflecting vasodilatory capacity of cerebral blood vessels in response to vasoactive substances, is a marker of cerebrovascular health. Despite informative findings in other diseases, CVR has not previously been examined in BD. METHODS: Twenty-five adolescents with BD and 25 age and sex-matched psychiatrically healthy controls (HCs) completed six 15-second breath-holds (BHs) during functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) at 3-Tesla...

OBJECTIVES: Lithium is one of the most effective and specific treatments for bipolar disorder (BP), but the neural mechanisms by which lithium impacts symptoms remain unclear. Past research has been limited by a reliance on cross-sectional designs, which does not allow for identification of within-person changes due to lithium and has not examined communication between brain regions (i.e., networks). In the present study, we prospectively investigated the lithium monotherapy associated effects in vivo on the brain connectome in medication-free BP patients...

BACKGROUND: Non-adherence is a significant problem in bipolar disorder. Second-generation antipsychotics (SGA) long-acting injections (LAIs) may improve adherence in bipolar disorder and may prevent relapses. However, the evidence is limited and conflicting. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to evaluate efficacy and safety of SGA LAIs in bipolar disorder.

The article by Petri et al. provides a compelling reason to believe that obesity is a probabilistic factor for bipolar spectrum disorders (i.e. factors that associate with a higher probability for Bipolar Disorder)(1).

Gliddon et al.1 adds to a compelling evidence base suggesting that digital interventions like MoodSwings 2.0 have the potential to contribute to long-lasting, clinically meaningful reductions in depression for adults with bipolar disorder (BD). Like MoodSwings, most digital interventions are essentially evidence-based psychosocial programs adapted for online delivery. Some include interaction with a clinician, whereas others are entirely self-guided. From a public health perspective, the allure of empirically-valid digital interventions for BD is considerable; a majority of psychosocial interventions with an evidence base in BD have not been disseminated widely and are principally available at research institutions where they were developed...

OBJECTIVES: Despite the growing numbers and proportion of older adults with bipolar disorder (OABD), there are very limited guidelines for the use of lithium with its double-edged potential for effectiveness and toxicity in this population. The primary aims of this Delphi survey were: (a) To determine the place of lithium among the preferred choices for maintenance treatment of OABD. (b) To provide detailed clinical guidelines for the safe and effective use of lithium in OABD. METHODS: In the face of limited evidence, the Delphi survey method was used to achieve consensus by a group of 25 experts in OABD from nine countries...

OBJECTIVES: Although not licensed for acute bipolar depression, lamotrigine has evidence for efficacy in trials and its use is recommended in guidelines. So far there had been no prospective health economic evaluation of its use.

OBJECTIVES: There are no well-established biomarkers to predict the risk of conversion to bipolar disorder (BD) in patients with depression. Given the putative role of purinergic neurotransmission dysfunction in BD, the purpose of our study was to evaluate if higher serum uric acid (UA) levels could predict BD conversion in depressed inpatients. METHODS: We reviewed retrospectively the records of subjects hospitalized between June 2007 and June 2010 with a diagnosis of major depressive disorder (MDD) who had undergone routine UA levels testing at admission...

How to have a financially smart Christmas

Marianne Curphey

Christmas is a time when the present list seems to get longer and the bank balance smaller, and it’s easy to be tempted into overspending. These tips will keep your finances manageable, putting you in good stead for the new year.

1. Make a list

Even those of us who are organised and level-headed for the rest of the year tend to spend more than we plan to in December.

Work out who you need to buy presents for, and don’t forget to include friends, family, work colleagues and neighbours and items for stocking fillers. Then decide how much you can afford to spend on each person, and stick to your budget.

Try to be disciplined and keep tabs on what you are spending by making notes in a small cash book, using an online budget calculator or using a personal finance app like Gift It.

2. Shop around

Buying online is often the best place to find presents cheaply, but you do need to factor in the cost of delivery, especially if you have left it a bit late and are going to need to pay for first class or next day delivery.

Once you’ve priced in delivery it may be cheaper to search online for the items you want, and then arrange to collect them at your local store and avoid the cost of postage.

Try not to leave your shopping until the last minute – impulse buys tend to be the least suitable and the most expensive.

You can use a web comparison site such as Price Spy to find the cheapest deals.

3. Choose the right plastic

Using a credit card can help with cash-flow in December, but picking the right one is important in order to avoid a financial headache in January.

Look for a card with a low APR (annual percentage rate) or a long interest-free period for purchases. You can find these by checking the best buys in Moneysupermarket.

If you are going to need some financial breathing space in January then it is worth applying for a balance transfer card now, as it takes a few weeks to process your application.

This type of card will allow you to move your debt to an interest-free deal, subject to a transfer fee which will be a percentage of your outstanding balance.

4. Resist the temptation to stockpile

Don’t buy more food than you will realistically need, and think about what you may already have. It’s easy to duplicate Christmas decorations and lights if you don’t know where you put them when you packed everything away last January so check in the attic first! Use discount shops for decorations and wrapping paper and check your cupboards and freezer for unused Christmas food.

Buy discounted food at sites like Approved Food which sells items which are close to their best before dates.

5. Beware of scams

Unfortunately this time of year sees a rise in bogus online shops and in gifts that never arrive. Try to stick to retailers that you know, and if a price seems too good to be true then it may not be a genuine business.

Look for the padlock symbol and “https” in the website address that will demonstrate the retailer has a secure payment service. Check your online bank account or bank statements carefully in case of any fraudulent transactions. Buying items on credit card gives you protection if the goods do not arrive or the retailer goes bust.

If you are a victim of fraud tell your bank straight away and report it to Action Fraud.

6. Get personal

A personalised present like home-made fudge or jam is a wonderful gift because it shows you have spent time and effort. Despite what Christmas advertising would have us believe, you don’t need to splash out on expensive presents just to demonstrate that you care.

Haskins takes control at Ohio State

After a 2-year wait

By MITCH STACY - AP Sports Writer

Dwayne Haskins

Dwayne Haskins

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Urban Meyer is known to deal in some hyperbole when he’s impressed. And the Ohio State coach was piling it on Dwayne Haskins Jr. before the young quarterback ever arrived on campus.

Meyer raved that Haskins — from the private Bullis School in Potomac, Maryland — was fundamentally the best prep quarterback he’d ever seen. “His release, his footwork his bounce in the pocket, his ability to get out of trouble, and his arm strength and size are absolutely ideal,” Meyer told ESPN on signing day 2016.

Haskins is living up to Meyer’s hype so far.

A sturdy, pro-style quarterback with a mighty right arm, Haskins threw five touchdown passes in his debut and four more last week. He’s already 42 of 56 for 546 yards with just one interception in limited action — limited because both his games were blowouts and the backups mopped up.

The 21-year-old Haskins has been waiting in the wings while at Ohio State, flipping to the Buckeyes after committing early to Maryland. After a redshirt year and then sitting as backup to J.T. Barrett last season, he’s getting his chance to run the Ohio State offense as the undisputed starter.

Haskins already claimed his place in Ohio State lore last season by entering the Michigan game for an injured Barrett and leading the Buckeyes to a come-from-behind win. After Barrett’s departure, Haskins battled Joe Burrow, a former Ohio Mr. Football, for the starting job in the spring, with Burrow eventually transferring to LSU.

“(He’s) growing every practice, every game, and building as we go,” said acting head coach Ryan Day, subbing while Meyer serves a three-game suspension for his mismanagement of a fired assistant.

Granted, those games weren’t against top teams, but there already is a presence about Haskins, an anticipation that something exciting could happen every time he drops back in the pocket. No disrespect to Barrett — statistically the best QB to ever play at Ohio State — but Haskins isn’t thinking too much about tucking the ball and running it himself, which was the way Barrett carried the team often the past two seasons.

Haskins is mobile enough, it’s just that he’s looking for home runs instead.

His two deep touchdown passes last week to Johnnie Dixon, 38 yards and 44 yards, weren’t rainbows but rockets that hit the senior receiver in stride just as he reached the end zone.

“Mom’s home cooking, just falling in your lap,” was how Dixon described them.

“Give them a good spot with the ball and they can take it to the house any time,” Haskins said. “That’s the thing for me is ball placement.”

There is talk that Haskins, with his size (6-foot-3, 220 pounds) and quick release, has NFL skills and could be the best quarterback to play for Ohio State since Troy Smith won the Heisman Trophy in 2006.

That’s premature, of course, but certainly Saturday’s prime-time, nationally televised clash between the No. 4 Buckeyes and No. 15 TCU in Arlington, Texas, will be the season’s first decent measuring stick of how effectively Haskins can navigate against a much better defense on a bigger stage.

“There’s a little more energy, a little more juice getting ready for this game,” Haskins acknowledged Wednesday night.

Haskins’ potential has been duly noted by TCU defenders, who gave up just two pass plays longer than 10 yards in last week’s rout of SMU.

“He can for sure throw, but I think he can move too,” TCU senior safety Niko Small said. “The film I’ve watched, that guy can run around when he wants to. I think he makes smart decisions, and he doesn’t want to get his body too much banged up because he knows he’s a good thrower. I think he can do it all, honestly.”

Reset Apple macOS Spotlight

The macOS Spotlight service might loose its touch. E.g. when some applications or documents won't show up when you <CMD><SPACE> them. Reason could be that the service or its database got corrupt for some reason.

The following 4 commands will reset the Spotlight service and database. So after you issue those commands the PC/laptop will be re-indexed (which could take a while).

sudo mdutil -a -i off
sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/
sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/
sudo mdutil -a -i on

Now, wait a bit, and everything should be back to normal.

Happy Spotlighting.

Installing Python Matplotlib On MacOS Sierra

I recently 'upgraded' to MacOS Sierra (Apple's latest Operating System) by doing a clean install. This resulted in a couple of challenges, including some software that could not be installed, and for which I had to find some alternatives.

Another issue I ran into is that some Python3 scripts with matplotlib wouldn't run, because matplotlib wouldn't install correctly.
I could 'pip' all I wanted, but the result was always:

$ pip3 install matplotlib
The following required packages can not be built: freetype

Some googling pointed me to some articles that freetype is/was a part of the XQuartz (X11) software that's no longer (pre)installed on MacOS Sierra. And in the past I have always upgraded my OS. The times that I did a clean install on this machine.... Must have been ages ago.

After some frustrating hours of trying to get this 'freetype' thing installed, I ran into an article on which solved my issue finally.

First I installed 'homebrew'.

$ /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL"

After that I installed pkg-config and freetype:

$ brew install pkg-config

$ brew install freetype

And finally, I was able to successfully install matplotlib:

$ pip3 install matplotlib

VPN and Resolving Issues on OS X

We have a lab which we can access by using a VPN (Cisco ASA and Cisco AnyConnect). This setup has a so-called split DNS configuration, which means that only resources in the lab are accessed through the VPN tunnel. Regular Internet traffic uses my local DSL connection.

At my house I (like most folks) rely on DHCP for providing me with IP address, gateway and DNS servers. My local subnet uses for DNS and is my default gateway. So my clients are in the same subnet as my DNS server (directly-connected).

All these things considered I should be able to browse the Internet while I have a VPN running. Well, that's where you're wrong.

Apple iOS Personal Hotspot Annoyances

This week, I ran into an annoying feature regarding the Apple iOS Personal Hotspot function of my iPhone 5s. I had to do some software testing with various WiFi clients. This worked fine, up to the moment that new devices ran into connectivity problems.

The new devices could connect, but got a message that there was no/limited Internet connectivity. Checking the IP address of the devices showed that they had an 169 address assigned.
So the iPhone wouldn't give new IP addresses to the new devices. Earlier devices that connected correctly could reconnect without a problem though.

It turned out to be a 'normal' DHCP problem. The IP address scope on the iPhone was depleted.

The iPhone has a small DHCP address pool that can give out 16 addresses ( Of these 16 addresses are 3 taken by the network, broadcast ( and and iPhone itself ( Leaving 13 addresses for other devices.

In normal situations, this shouldn't be a problem, but when your testing stuff, you can run into a shortage of IP addresses. Besides the shortage of addresses there is another challenge; no way of altering the DHCP lease time, or even clearing the issued IP addresses.

The lease time for the DHCP address is approximately 1 day (85536 seconds), as shown by a little network traffic capturing below.

20:53:29.544291 56:e4:3a:38:4d:64 > 00:23:6c:8d:7f:8e, ethertype IPv4 (0x0800), length 342: (tos 0x0, ttl 255, id 45806, offset 0, flags [none], proto UDP (17), length 328) > BOOTP/DHCP, Reply, length 300, xid 0xfd7e0982, Flags [none]
      Client-Ethernet-Address 00:23:6c:8d:7f:8e
      sname "Free-Public-WiFi"
      Vendor-rfc1048 Extensions
        Magic Cookie 0x63825363
        DHCP-Message Option 53, length 1: ACK
        Server-ID Option 54, length 4:
        Lease-Time Option 51, length 4: 85536
        Subnet-Mask Option 1, length 4:
        Default-Gateway Option 3, length 4:
        Domain-Name-Server Option 6, length 4:

There is a function to reset the network settings on the iPhone, but that just clears everything regarding (wireless) network settings, but it doesn't touch the DHCP service in the iPhone. A reboot of the iPhone doesn't do the trick either. So you just have to wait till it clears automagically.

So there is room for improvement......

OS X Yosemite DHCP Server

This week I re-installed my Mac Mini server at home. It still ran Snow Leopard, and it was time to start with a clean slate. So after a couple of hours of pondering if I had forgotten to backup something, I started with a clean install of OS X Yosemite (10.10).

Everything went smooth, until I started using the DHCP service that comes with the Server App add-on.

My server uses 802.1q (VLAN-tagging) to connect several different VLAN's which I feed into several Virtual Machines. So I also use several DHCP Scopes for those segments.
The IP addresses for these scopes are all in the 192.168-range (class C subnets), so when I created the scopes I had to go through a simple wizard in the Server App. I just had to fill-in the blanks (very user friendly), and OS X did the rest.

Upon testing I ran into the weirdest behaviour on my network. Getting connectivity with a device took a very long time, and when the device got an IP address, it was from a different network (???)> So it couldn't communicate across the network.

At first I began to wonder if I had mixed up the VLAN names and tags, but those were correct. After an hour of troubleshooting (more and more DHCP clients were failing in the network), I found the problem;

When you create a scope Apple will assign a default subnet mask ( I guess I should have seen it, but I didn't.

After I changed the subnet mask in the DHCP scopes everything went back to normal.

Lesson learned: Don't rely on wizards and other user-friendly stuff.

OSX 10.10 (Yosemite) and Audio Out Changes

Yesterday I ran into a new Yosemite feature that annoyed me a bit. After changing the input on my Dell 27" display from DisplayPort to HDMI, the screen turned black on my 27" iMac, and audio stopped. Forcing a reboot (holding the power button for >4 seconds) was needed to get the iMac's display back.

But from that point on, the audio was greyed-out in the menu bar. Changing the volume on the (Apple) keyboard gave a disabled icon on screen. Also, no audio was playing over my external speakers.

My first thoughts were that the earlier crash had corrupted something on my system, so I did an additional reboot. Nothing. After that a PRAM reset (power off, power-on and hold command-option-P-R until you have heard two start-up 'boings'). The start-up sounds were there, so the actual audio hardware was just fine.

When the desktop loaded still no audio control, until I unplugged my DisplayPort connector on the Dell 27" monitor. Audio (controls) came back instantaneous.

So, with DisplayPort connected to the external monitor: no audio (controls), and without the DisplayPort: audio (controls).

Turns out that with Yosemite, the audio is channelled BY DEFAULT over a DisplayPort connection (to a external monitor). In my case, the Dell also has an audio out connector, and I guess that is 'advertised' over the DisplayPort.

Changing the default behaviour is done in the System Preferences -> Sound

The first image shows the default (at least in my case). Changing the settings to the second image gave me back the audio and volume control.

I have no idea if this was also possible with Mavericks (or even earlier versions of OSX), but it's definitely a (default) feature that annoyes the hell out of me.

Even though I tackeled the audio problem, the issue with loosing the display when I change the video input on the external monitor still remains. But only if the desktop is extended to the second screen. It doesn't occur when the screen is mirrored.

Apple OSX Server Firewall

My Apple OSX server (Mountain Lion) at home is the centre of my network and entertainment system. It provides provides the following services:

Since several (soft-, and hardware) upgrades and redesigns of my internal network (from a single VLAN to a multi-VLAN with firewall services and traffic inspection) several services failed under certain circumstances. E.g. Air-Video would work internally where the client was in the same network as the OSX server network interface. But trying to connect through the SSL VPN stopped working for some reason. Also, the VNC Viewer did work in the old days, but stopped working over time. Same for several static NAT entries; worked before, and stopped working without 'no reason'. Other services like ssh did work in the old and new network design....

Apple OSX DHCP Server Challenges

The last week, I've been experimenting with the Juniper Mobility System Software (MSS) in conjunction with two Juniper/Trapeze Access Points (type WLA522E). The MSS software is a Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) with manages the Access Points, and like so many Juniper Product; it can run in a virtual machine.

For the AP's to boot / connect to the network they need some basic information about where to find the WLC from which they receive their wireless settings. This can be done through DNS, or through DHCP. The first uses specific DNS records, and the latter uses DHCP Options (option 43 to be precise). I wanted to use the latter (which is a bit more challenging).

Train iPhone 5s Touch ID

Touch ID is the name for the fingerprint reader in the new iPhone 5s. When you configure it, you have the possibility to register a number of fingers (5) with which you can unlock your iPhone.

Settings -> General -> Touch ID & Passcode -> Touch ID

For some reason this always failed after a couple of days on my phone. For some reason the fingers didn't 'register' properly, and I was forces to use the PIN.

The way to solve this (temporary) was to re-register the fingers, until I read about a way of training the device.
When you're in the menu where you normally register your fingerprints, you can register additional print data for each finger by just placing one og the already registered fingers on the home button. When the finger is recognized the registered finger entry on the iPhone turns grey for a second (as shown in the screenshot). Doing this for every finger a couple of times increases the registered data for those fingers. The more data that's registered the better the chance that the finger keeps getting recognized in the future.

UPDATE: With the iOS 7.1 update the Touch ID responds a lot better.

Presently, those in Lexington rentals can still catch a glimpse of the past by visiting the Lexington Museum Outbuildings. These colonial-era cabins display relics such as quilts, pottery and carriages from the pre-Civil War era.

Ugly Xmas Sweaters Win your holiday party with this unsightly attire

Ugly Christmas Sweaters

Ugly Xmas Sweaters Win your holiday party with this unsightly attire

The holidays are upon us. Some of you are probably going to go to tasteful events where you wear your holiday best. The rest of us are going to bust out the best of the worst: the ugly sweater.

The idea behind the ugly sweater is the uglier, the better, and we’ve found 10 that fit the profile. But remember, ugly sweaters are like snowflakes. Blink and they’ll be gone!

The You Light Up My Life Sweater

Have you always wanted to wear an item of clothing that blinks or lights up? Did you abstain from doing this because you didn’t want to look crazy? Never fear, it’s ugly sweater time. This Bling Light-up Sweater ($64.99 at MyUglyChristmasSweater.com) takes the concept of a lit-up Christmas tree literally—and makes sure that everyone will see you coming from a mile away. Bonus points for the inclusion of the teddy bear, the rocking horse, the stocking stuffer, the toy train and snowflakes, all non-artfully arranged on the front. Check out these other light-up sweaters.

The Couture Ugly Sweater

Couture is original, hand-crafted works of art. And this Silver Bells Sweater ($44.99) is just that, the Alexander McQueen of ugly sweaters. At Real Ugly Christmas Sweaters, they take a sweater and add their own special touches to them. For this one, they added a bunch of bells, along with a giant bell on one shoulder. Be careful of doorways or that awesomeness will be gone. Look for more sweaters here.

The Lazy Ugly Sweater

Ugly sweaters should be an assault on your senses, with intricate details and lots of things that don’t belong on an item of clothing. But if you choose a sweater designed to look like a Santa Outfit ($64.96 from Tipsyelves.com), complete with a buckle, you are not only lazy, but you are robbing everyone of reveling in your terrible beauty.

The Santa Sweater at TipsyElves.com

The Cat Sweater

Miley Cyrus had it all figured out at the AMAs the other night: Cats are everything. The Internet already knew that, of course, but we’ll give her credit where credit is due. There was no good reason to stand on stage in front of a gigantic floating animated cat, except to tell the world that cats are awesome. And there is also no good reason for this hideous Creepy Laser Cats Sweater to exist ($38.99 from Stupid.com). Except of course, to win an ugly sweater contest.

The Woody Allen Ugly Sweater

If you’re Jewish and you want to go to an ugly sweater party but don’t want to come sporting Santa propaganda, never fear, the ugly Hanukkah sweater is also a thing.  While there aren’t as many ridiculous symbols and characters for Hanukkah as there are for Christmas, you still have the dreidel, the Star of David and the menorah to work with. Extra credit if you manage to get all three. This Hanukkah Shirt ($32.95 from Zazzle.com) makes up for the lack of the Star of David by featuring pugs for no apparent reason. Get more Hanukkah sweaters here.

The Captain Obvious Ugly Sweater

Buying an ugly sweater that actually says you are wearing an ugly sweater will get you fired from ugly sweaters. We can’t decide if this Gingerbread Man Ugly Sweater ($13.79 at Target) is hideous or quite possibly genius.

The Silicon Valley Ugly Sweater

Would you like to impress everyone at the party with your tech savvy while also giving them nightmares? The Digital Duds Caroling Kitty ($50 at Ultimateuglychristmas.com) will definitely do that. Here’s how it works: There’s a Velcro pocket inside the shirt; you download the app (um, yes, this sweater has an app) and then you press play. It starts to meow carols and blink. That’s it, you win.

The Ugly Sweater Skirt

Throw everyone a curve ball and show up in probably the least fashionable thing ever created, a Knitted Sweater Skirt ($65 from Rustyzipper.com), made from repurposed ugly Christmas sweaters. Just delightful.

The College Professor Ugly Sweater

Nothing telegraphs to the world that you are a serious intellectual more than a sweater vest. In fact, this is how a college professor would do the ugly sweater thing. A Little Christmas Here and There ($31 at UglySweaterStore.com) offers up free-floating images of a reindeer, a snowman, a gingerbread man and a tree, just sort of haphazardly stuck on the front. Also snowflakes. (Here is a selection of other vests to don.)

The Everything Bagel of Ugly Sweaters

Really, this is the pinnacle of ugly sweaters. It must have every possible symbol of Christmas on it and it must hurt your eyes. To quote Saturday Night Live’s Stefon, our favorite fake club expert, this Bear-riffic Light-up Sweater ($82 at Rustyzipper.com) has everything: a Santa hat, snowflakes, a teddy bear, ribbons, a stocking with candy canes, a sign saying “Merry Christmas,” plaid, and best of all, lights. It’s gonna be major.

Comedian who mocked Russian World Cup soccer team says sorry in new viral video

MOSCOW (Reuters) - A comedian who called Russia’s World Cup soccer team “shit” in a music video watched online by at least 12 million people released a new song on Sunday in which he said sorry and his co-performer hailed the national side as heroes.

Semyon Slepakov’s original song, “Ole Ole Ole,” was released before Russia’s first match earlier this month and tapped into the views of many Russians who regarded their players before the tournament as underperforming and destined for a humiliating and early exit from the competition.

The jokey song was well received by many Russians at the time, but angered some fans and politicians, including the Kremlin-backed head of Chechnya who said he found part of it offensive.

Since its release, Russia has dramatically confounded its critics, beating Saudi Arabia 5-0 and Egypt 3-1, earning itself a place in the knockout stage in an unexpected turn of events that has delighted the Russian public.

Slepakov, whose patriotism had been called into question by some fans, teamed up with Sergei Shnurov, the founder of the band “Leningrad”, to try to make amends in a new song called “Champions”.

Released on Sunday, the track, peppered with expletives, quickly garnered over 500,000 views and was the top trending item on YouTube in Russia.

“Forgive us guys, we were real morons,” Slepakov, accompanied by Leningrad’s musicians, sings.

“We did not believe in you solemnly, did not clench our fists. In front of the whole country, we shouted at you that you were surplus to requirements! How many times did we repeat that whatever happened you would screw up!”

Shnurov, in the same song, sings that the Russian team’s unexpectedly strong performance has generated nationwide euphoria and that Russians, who used to curse the team, are now toasting their footballers with vodka.

“You are now heroes for us. The people are queuing up to bow down to you. If somebody opens their mouth (to speak badly of the team) we will rip their mouth apart,” he sings.

Russia, who began the tournament ranked as the weakest team in the tournament by FIFA, are due to play Uruguay on Monday in the city of Samara, but are already guaranteed a place in the knockout stage.

The new song had a warning for the Russian team however, pointing out that the Russian public is fickle.

“We will kiss your boots, but know this. If you lose even once you will immediately become scumbags.”

Here Just Yesterday

The days flew by, I don't know why. They were here just yesterday.
Perhaps I should die, curl up and sigh. Life's lessons are short lived anyway.

My computer is no tutor, 'tis more like a looter, for its appetite flies too quickly.
I'm tempted to cry, but my eyes stay dry. It's too late to avoid turning sickly.

But why can't I write, and put up a fight, for what my heart truly desires?
Confidence, I'm sure, as I grow and mature, is facing my passions and fires.

It's not just an art, it burns in my heart; even the Spirit of life is within me.
It yearns to get out, to whisper, to shout, and tell all it's sweeter than honey.

With purpose I live, my life's mission and give, building upon solid ground.
In thoughts I was tossed, but did not get lost, in words by which I was found.

These days are too short, to sit idly in court, judging how time should be spent.
In the writing I do, giving myself to you, I know every moment was meant.

Such was my life, empty grasping and strife, to experience the worldly decoy.
But now I know peace, love will never cease, flowing in crisp rivers of joy.

More than a tool, writing's a jewel, and lifts my soul to the sky.
To Him be glory, as I write my story, for He is the reason why.

Remi Roy

Remi Roy Cover Photo

Assistant Coach
New England Revolution

Remi Roy enters his eighth season with the New England Revolution as an assistant coach, having joined the coaching staff in 2010. In addition to working primarily with the first-team keepers, Roy also manages the club's collegiate scouting efforts and provides additional training for the Revolution Academy's goalkeepers.

During his time with the Revolution, Roy has mentored several different goalkeepers and helped them each achieve success in MLS. In addition to coaching former Revs goalkeeper Matt Reis in his pursuit of MLS longevity and success, Roy helped Bobby Shuttleworth establish himself as one of the league's premier goalkeepers since his debut in 2010. In 2016, Roy's guidance helped Brad Knighton start a career-high 13 matches, including six wins.

Under his direction, young goalkeepers have thrived with the Revolution. In addition to helping Shuttleworth adjust to the professional stage, Roy tutored rookie Matt Turner through seven starts in USL action in 2016, a stretch in which he conceded only three goals. He also worked with MLS newcomer Cody Cropper after he was acquired during the 2016 campaign, leading to a shutout victory in his MLS debut in the season finale.

Roy's supervision helped Shuttleworth emerge onto the MLS scene in 2012, as the then-fourth year pro posted the league's best goals against average (0.71 GAA) among keepers making three or more starts. In 2013, the Revs had one of MLS's top goals against averages all season, finishing tied for third with a 1.12 mark, while Reis led the league with a career-best mark (0.72). The 2013 season also saw Shuttleworth named among the top goalkeepers in MLS, as he garnered mid-season All-Star consideration.

Roy joined the Revolution after 10 years as the assistant coach/goalkeepers coach for both the men's and women's soccer teams at the University of Mobile in Alabama, his alma mater.

During his tenure in Mobile, Roy was also a member of the Region III goalkeeping staff. Additionally, he served as the Puerto Rico national team's goalkeepers coach in its preparations for the 2010 FIFA World Cup.

In addition to his various coaching positions, Roy spent five years as a player-coach in the United Soccer League (USL) with the Syracuse Salty Dogs (2003) and the Virginia Beach Mariners (2004-07).

Roy played collegiately at the University of Mobile from 1997-99. In his final season in 1999, Roy garnered all-conference, all-region, and All-American honors. He also played five seasons in the Premier Development League (PDL) with the Jackson Chargers (1998-99), Des Moines Menace (2000), and the Spokane Shadow (2001).

Roy holds a USSF "A" License and Level I and II NSCAA Goalkeeping Licenses. A native of Petit-Rocher, New Brunswick, Canada, Roy lives south of Boston with his wife and three kids.

Case study by Michael Barker RGD, Acme Art & Design
Since 2010, award-winning Canadian opera company Against the Grain Theatre has produced daring re-interpretations of classical repertoire in nontraditional spaces — courtyards, bars, Victorian mansions, wedding halls — with scaled-back accompaniment, such as a string quartet or piano, to bring out the full force of operatic singing in close quarters.

"The future of opera."
− Alexander Neef, General Director, Canadian Opera Company

I met Amanda Hadi — Against the Grain Theatre’s stalwart Editorial and Digital Media Manager — when we both worked at the Toronto International Film Festival. I was in the creative department and Amanda was in editorial and we worked very closely together on many projects. I left TIFF around the same time ATG was thinking about refreshing their visual identity and website, and Amanda asked if I’d be interested in taking it on. The scope of the project quickly grew to include print and digital promotional materials and creative collateral for two critically-acclaimed shows: Death & Desire and AtG's Messiah.

The goal of the redesign was to increase audience engagement and win new audiences with a clean, consistent visual identity that would reflect the matured sophistication of the company. The identity needed to highlight the inimitable experience Against the Grain Theatre offers its audience, one they will never get anywhere else in the operatic world: the experience of hearing refreshed takes on operatic classics performed by world-class musicians — all in small venues with the feel of an intimate local bar (and local-bar offerings, like beer and popcorn).

AtG wanted the website redesign to be user-friendly, eye-catching, mobile-friendly and built on the Wordpress platform (a familiar environment for the staff responsible for the website). The company conducts most of its marketing and all ticket sales online, so the site is at the centre of their marketing and communications toolset (alongside social media and their e-newsletter). The new site would have to both promote upcoming and past shows, build the AtG brand and make ticket buying as smooth as possible.

I don’t always work with a formal brief — sometimes an informal conversation is enough to get started — but on this project we did. We discussed the brief as a group in an enthusiastic Prosecco-fuelled meeting where I was impressed with both the passion and uniqueness of the company. According to the brief, opera is at a crossroads both as a relevant medium and as a revenue generator for huge national companies. It is also in a transitional moment in terms of its audience. AtG's role is not just to provide entertainment, but also to encourage younger audience participation and emerging performer development. They are a company keenly aware of the history of opera and the prevailing preference for an “old guard”, both onstage and in the audience. As a result, they are deeply invested in the search for a sustainable and creative solution for opera's future.

The target audience identified in the brief included a portion of their current audience, which is a mix of young, arts-engaged, musically-literate urbanites and more conservative and seasoned art patrons. They also hoped to attract opera newbies: those who are interested in classical music, but who have never been to an opera. At times the brief identified an audience that was very precise. For instance: “Enjoys classical music that is not strictly traditional (e.g. Verdi), but also wants their music to be a bit comprehensible — don’t seek out composers like Britten or Janáček, but wants exposure to them via AtG.” Despite tendencies towards this kind of laser precision, it was important to the company that their brand appeal to audiences beyond the classical/avant-garde opera scene.

At a follow-up meeting we went through a wine-hummus-and-Pinterest mood board exercise with key stakeholders in the company. As you’d expect from a sophisticated arts organization, everyone had excellent and thoughtful taste. We looked at a wide range of images — from Bjork to woodgrain prints — but we also reviewed some inspirational opera identities including The New Zealand Opera (Alt Group Auckland), the English National Opera (CDT Design), Den Norske Opera and Ballet (Dinamo Design), the Welsh National Opera (Hat Trick), The Metropolitan Opera (Pentagram), the Dutch National Opera & Ballet (Lesley Moore) and (my favourite) Opera Australia. All of these identities explore the potential for a new visual language for opera. In the mood board exercise I think we all got excited about being part of that exploration. It was an exciting framework to work within. More practically, the mood board exercise quickly defined our colour palette (printer’s colours: black and red) and a preference for minimalist logo marks, clean typography and dramatic photography.

I presented a half dozen concepts — all of which were well received — but to my delight they chose the most adventuresome one. Playing with references to wood grain, sound waves, vinyl grooves and the letterform 'O' (for 'opera'), the concept uses a simple circular device as the jumping off point for a logo system of infinite variations of 'bent' logo marks — a riff on the exploratory, playful metamorphosing nature of the company. It is an unconventional visual identity for an unconventional company; an identity that bends expectation; an identity that is consistent but constantly changing; playful but sophisticated.

The client was hoping that the new visual identity could be rolled out very quickly, but it was a slow and necessarily iterative process. While the identity was still in development we did a complete redesign of the website from scratch, designed new promo materials and stationery for the company, and produced digital and print creative materials for two shows — there was always something to work on aside from the identity. We did have a soft launch of the identity when the website went live, but even then the logo system was still being refined.

I spent a lot of time trying to figure out what the limits of the mark were on different channels — it’s easy to produce moire patterns with a concentric circular motif like this on lower resolution screens, so testing the system at different sizes, varying the number of concentric circles, and playing with stroke thicknesses was necessary. I made hundreds of variations of the circular device to try and find a balance of beauty and irregularity without being overly mannered about it, or producing "hero" versions.

It has been a real pleasure to work with AtG — it’s a real creative partnership and that’s an ideal situation for producing the best work you can. The identity is still evolving — there are some areas that need more attention, and some things we’d like to add back in, like AtG’s legacy cheeky bird mascot. I’m also working with an animator on a motion expression of the identity, that’s a new and exciting opportunity for me.

“We came to Michael with a challenge: design a new visual identity and a beautiful, responsive website for a start-up indie opera company looking to reach wider audiences. He was so thorough, insightful and joyful to work with from start to finish. First, he took time to educate the whole team about how to express our vision and think about our audiences, competition and strategy; in addition, he provided an incredible overview on what a design process like this involved, from colour selection to typography. He brought us in as a collaborator rather than a spectator/client, and the result is a refreshing, one-of-a-kind look in the opera industry. For us, Michael’s identity isn’t just a piece of creative, but a symbol and celebration of the scrappy, DIY-team that grew into one of the country’s most exciting and innovative opera companies. We couldn’t be prouder to show off our new look.”

— Against the Grain Theatre

Designer Takeaways:

  1. AtG is a passion project for the members of the company, which is volunteer-run. They do this out of a deep love for opera and an incredible depth of knowledge of the medium’s history, a sensitivity to its cultural location in the present and real concern and excitement about where it might go in the future. It was important for me to try to understand and reflect that deep commitment with respect and sensitivity.
  2. When you have the honour of being made a true creative partner by a client, be sure to recognize and embrace the opportunity it affords.

Client Takeaways from Against the Grain Theatre

  1. Be clear about your objectives and vision. Try to narrow down your target audience as much as possible — secondary audiences can come later. Identify the persona of your audience, their characteristics, etc.
  2. Trust your designer or agency, and trust their opinion.
