What a great year it has been! Thank you to our customers, partners, and employees for making 2017 another banner year for Leitz USA. We’re looking back at our top moments in 2017, the posts and stories that you liked the most, and looking forward to another great year in 2018.
Intelligent Tooling took the stage at Ligna 2017 and will continue to be a factor for innovation in 2018 and beyond. Mike Lind, Leitz CEO, discusses the role of the tool maker in intelligent tooling and how intelligent tooling benefits production with CCI media editor Karl Forth in this webinar originally recorded in June.
We were proud to join the prestigious group of Visionary Award Winners at the AWFS 2017 Fair in July. The innovative, new BrillianceCut Circular Saw Blade won the 2017 Visionary Award in the Tooling category at the AWFS 2017 Fair. Leitz BrillianceCut circular saw blades eliminate the need for grinding or polishing for acrylic glass (PMMA), polycarbonate panels (PC), and other plastics and compound materials, saving you the time and expense of additional finishing work.
To complement an already strong offering for kitchen and bath cabinet makers, we launched the MDF Door Program, offering the industry a line of standard, off-the-shelf, precision diamond-tipped router tooling. This selection of contemporary tools is much more economic, offering significantly longer life and the possibility of multiple re-sharpenings when compared to insert tooling. Profiles can be mixed and matched to create a wide variety of door designs. Economic custom profiles are also available upon request.
The ProfilCut Q Diamond is another product breakthrough – it is the fastest diamond insert tool system, with approved cutting speeds of 120 meters/second. Tools such as ProfilCut Q Diamond, which offers constant profile and diameter, greatly reduce machine downtime due to tool changes and recalibration. The ability to produce 50% faster, due to higher allowable cutting speeds, reduces total machine and operator production costs.
With the addition of the Reno, Nevada service facility, Leitz expanded our US operations in late 2017. We have our customers to thank for our continued growth. Without your dedication to quality and innovation, we would not have these milestones to celebrate.
We wish you a safe and happy holiday season – see you in the New Year!

D&D Fourth Edition License Unveiled!
After much hullabaloo, the open licensing for D&D Fourth Edition (4e) has been unveiled – kinda.
Wizards of the Coast is pleased to announce that third-party publishers will be allowed to publish products compatible with the Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition game system under the new Dungeons & Dragons 4E Game System License (D&D 4E GSL). This royalty-free license will replace the former d20 System Trademark License (STL), and will have a System Reference Document (SRD) available for referencing permissible content.
The D&D 4E GSL will allow third-party publishers to create roleplaying game products in fantasy settings with the D&D 4th Edition rules, and publishers who register with WotC will be granted the right to use a version of the D&D logo that denotes the product as compatible with the D&D 4th Edition Roleplaying Game, in accordance with WotC’s terms and conditions. The effective start date for sales of D&D 4E GSL publications will be October 1, 2008.
The license associated SRD will be available on June 6, 2008, at no cost. A small group of publishers received advanced notice and will receive these documents prior to June 6, at no cost, in order to prepare for publication of compatible materials by the effective start date. If you haven’t already been contacted by WotC, you will be able to access the documents on the Wizards website beginning on June 6, 2008.
Wizards is also working on the details of a second royalty-free license, the d20 Game System License (d20 GSL). This license will allow third-party publishers to create roleplaying game products in non-fantasy settings with the 4E rules. The exact details for the d20 GSL will be released as they become available.
I’ve posted some questions to get clarification – it’s not clear what this means for individuals and also begs some questions about how restrictive it’ll be. More as I get it!
This entry was posted in talk and tagged 4e, D&D, GSL, license, open gaming, RPG, RPGs. Bookmark the permalink.
OK, updates courtesy of Scott Rouse.
1. Individuals will need to send in a “reply card” accepting the license, then they can publish.
2. Though the publisher start date is October 2008, you can make “free” stuff earlier.
3. The intent for what products are allowed is the full gamut – the D&D GSL will be like the current d20 STL.
4. The d20 GSL – which will be kinda like the current OGL – allowing non-D&D d20 games – will outlaw other medieval fantasy games but allow other genres.

We agree with Noel Coward. It is never too early for a cocktail - especially in the balmy heat of a Bahamian summer with a cocktail that combines sweet local pineapple with freshly-squeezed lime juice and homegrown basil (plus the odd splash of gin). Indeed. That's the breakfast of rockstars and kings.
In this new take on an established classic, Culinary Producer & Chef Monica Hutchinson redefines chicken souse, elevating the taste experience with the addition of a welcome crunch and borrowing certain aesthetic elements from Japanese Ramen. The result is something that would raise the eyebrows of the most staunch traditionalist.

Tyrannosaurus rex and other large predatory dinosaurs appear to have had the same type of skin as reptiles. A skin covered with slippery scales and not feathers as many assumed.
The researchers behind the study, published this week in Biology Letters, have analyzed fossil skin prints from several predators, concluding that both T. rex and its closely related species in the genera; Albertosaurus, Daspletosaurus, Gorgosaurus and Tarbosaurus – all lacked feathers.
The skin prints examined were derived from a T. rex found in Montana in the United States. Other remains are pieces of skin from the neck, pelvis, and tail. Everything indicates that the animal was essentially covered with typical reptile scales.
The researchers also looked at skin prints from closely related species. None showed any traces of feathers. With a little caveat, as they may have had feathers on their heads or arms.
That birds originate from small predatory dinosaurs and that many of these were in fact feathered led to the speculation that also T. rex could have resembled a giant walking bird of prey.
In at least one case, this hypothesis seems to have been true. An early precursor to the tyrannosaurs, the Yutyrannus from China did have feathers covering its entire body.
Yutyrannus lived 125 million years ago and had no direct line of genetic succession. Just over 50 million years later, when the Tyrannosaurus, Tarbosaurus, Daspletosaurus and other predatory dinosaurs lived, the feathers were gone.
The researchers believe that the cause for this apparent lack of feathers is the increasing gigantism of tyrannosaurs. The species within this family tended to grow more over time until its size peaked with T. Rex weighing over ten tons.
The fact that smaller predatory dinosaurs carried feathers may have to do with the need for insulation against cold weather. Since the climate was much hotter 66 million years ago when T. rex lived. In such a climate, animals with very large bodies have no need for fur or insulating plumage.

K9 Camp is proud to say we are a crate free facility! We understand your passion for your dog because we share the same values and our personal pets are not pets, they are members of our family! We want our customers to know their dogs are in capable hands and receiving the same love and attention with us as they do at home.
We offer a variety of services which are all focused on maintaining your dog’s best interest and overall health. We have day care so your dog can exercise and socialize with other dogs, boarding where your dog can sleep where and how he’s comfortable, grooming to stay clean and healthy, and training so your dog can be a positive member of the community.
Our mission is to provide a safe and enjoyable atmosphere for dogs to run, play, and socialize while their humans are off to work. Our pack leaders encourage the dogs throughout the day to release their energy and relax when needed, ultimately sending home a happy dog to their loving family.
Rohit, co-founder and co-owner, has built his career by consistently following his passion and always focusing on the details. Growing up, he was always inspired by his mother’s love and passion in caring for stray dogs. Now he has five dogs that he cares for at home, many more that he cares for at work, and would not have it any other way. Dogs always have been and always will be critical to his happiness. So after working in the technology industry for 20+ years, in late Summer 2016, he decided to devote his efforts to his long-time passion for dogs by co-founding K9 Camp. The goal was to create facility that was beautiful, functional and offered the highest standard of care.
Scott built successful careers in the retail industry managing a 24 hour business and then as a budget analyst for 14 years in the corporate environment. Towards the end of his business career he was always missing his dog Gunnar, who was off having fun at a doggie day care while he was sitting in traffic and meetings. After some reflection, he realized his true passion was to provide the community with a fun and safe place for dogs to play and socialize. His love for dogs, coupled with his excellence in customer service and budget management led him to work with Rohit at K9 Camp.

When faced with a tragedy, we are often left with a loss of words. We feel like we need to say something but we just can’t come up with the right sentiment. That’s where the phrase, “our thoughts and prayers are with the victims…” comes into play. Celebrities, news outlets, companies, individuals, and even the Commander-in-Chief use this phrase any time tragedy strikes. So what should you do when making a statement after a tragedy.
The over-use of the phrase, “our thoughts and prayers are with the victims” has left it devoid of emotion or impact and has turned it into the canned response attached to tragedies. It has no meaning or attachment to the tragedy at hand; it is merely something to be said. Make no mistake: the statement you make after a tragedy is part of your marketing because it is part of the humanity of your brand.
Think of the last time you lost someone you loved. You probably heard the words, “we’re sorry for your loss” or “they’re in a better place” over and over. These two phrases have lost the heart of their meaning. They comfort the person saying them but do little to comfort those who are left trying to deal with the loss or tragedy.
But what if that’s how we feel?
In times of tragedy your thoughts and prayers may really be with the victims. You may be thinking about them, you may have a personal connection to them, you may even be praying for them. But your copywriting matters now more than ever. The English language is a vast one, and there are countless other things that can be said instead of the same canned phrase that everyone else is saying. Crafting a statement that is unique to your business makes what you have to say more heartfelt and believable. It also shows that you took the time to really think about what you had to say and didn’t just prattle off some standard response.
So what can be said instead?
Speak the truth. If you or your business has a personal connection to the tragedy, it’s usually okay to talk about that. Your audience will most likely value an open and honest description about how you and your employees are feeling.
What will you do? Many times companies will take action in light of a tragedy. Will you be hosting a blood drive in your parking lot, volunteering your time, donating teddy bears to younger victims? If you are thinking of hosting some sort of event to benefit the victims, now is a great time to share. We’ve all heard that actions speak louder than words. Sharing what you’re planning on doing shows action and a drive to help those affected by the tragedy. You should also take whatever time is necessary to ensure the effort will actually benefit victims. Donate to reputable organizations and make sure the donation is usable in a reasonable time frame.
Say nothing. As a child, we were all told, “If you can’t say something nice, don’t say it at all.” The same principle applies here, if you can’t think of something meaningful to add to the conversation – don’t say anything. In times of tragedy, the conversation is already packed with statements and news articles pertaining to the events surrounding the tragedy. If you weren’t directly involved, it is completely okay to keep silent if you don’t have anything meaningful to add. If you were directly involved, a timely statement is necessary and it should also be heartfelt. Taking a moment to pause before immediately addressing your stakeholders will ensure that you’ve collected your thoughts and are prepared to present a statement that shows consideration and thought which will ultimate showcase the heart of you or your business.
“On behalf of the entire Route 91 Harvest Family, we are completely devastated by the event that occurred last night.
Our eternal gratitude goes out to the LVMPD, Emergency services, security guards, and fans for their selfless acts of bravery while trying to help those in need.
We are heartbroken over the tragedy that took place at the Route 91 Harvest festival. To think that anyone would want to inflict harm on a gathering of music lovers is beyond our comprehension.
And while we are stunned and grieving over this incomprehensible act of violence, we know that this is a moment when we must come together to prevent more tragedies like this from occurring.
Live Nation will do everything in our power to support the victims and their families through the aftermath of this horrendous event and extends our deepest gratitude to the heroic first responders who helped save as many lives as possible. To our Live Nation on-site employees, we cannot thank you enough for your bravery and perseverance over the past 24 hours and will ensure you have the resources and support necessary to heal from this.
In both cases, these companies took the time to write statements that truly reflected their brands. They gathered their thoughts surrounding this senseless tragedy and crafted something beautiful. They honored those lost, those injured, and the brave men and women who acted heroically to help those in need. Nothing about their statements feel forced or canned. These were not prewritten statements waiting in a folder somewhere to be used, these are statements filled with heart and meaning.

Come rain or shine, there is always something to do in Dover. From walking tours round historical pubs and buildings to independent cinemas and stunning countryside train rides, you’re never short of things to keep you occupied.
For an indoor activity that’s a little different, head to the Ceramics Café, a bright studio where children and adults alike can express themselves through the medium of art. Starting with a blank slate, you’ll leave this lovely little café with a unique painted ceramic design which is then fired in a kiln and available for collection within a couple of days. Located on Cherry Tree Avenue by the River Dour, costs are £2 per person, plus the cost of the item you wish to paint. Booking needs to be made in advance so make sure you check their website before you visit.
To learn all about Dover Castle’s relationship with World War ll, take part in the Secret Wartime Tour Tunnels at Dover Castle, where you will learn how the tunnels were used as both Naval headquarters and as a hospital during the height of both world wars. Entry is included with a ticket to Dover Castle and tours last just under an hour, leaving every 20 minutes.
Silver Screen Dover is a cinema with a difference. A lovely little theatre that harps back to the good old days, this is independently run which means it’s intimate – seating around 70 people – and comfortable with plenty of legroom and reasonable prices. The experience isn’t compromised here though; there is a great sound system, and all the latest blockbusters are on show. Located within Dover Discovery Centre on Market Street, tickets are around £5 for adults and £4 for children, so it’s much cheaper than its bigger rivals leaving you with money left over for popcorn and snacks – winner!
If keeping fit is important to you, even when you’re on holiday, Dover Leisure Centre has everything you need to work up a sweat. With a state-of-the-art gym, plenty of exercise classes, squash courts, football pitches and a swimming pool where under eights go free, there is lots to keep you occupied here. Located close to Dover Castle and the Matthew Webb statue, it costs very little to get involved, and the centre is open until 10pm on weekdays, and 5pm at weekends.
If you’re staying at our Dover East hotel, you might prefer to work out at Tides Leisure Centre and Indoor Tennis Centre, which is a 15-minute drive away. With a gym and swimming pool for the adults, and trampolining and a crèche for the kids, there’s plenty of active fun for all the family. If you love to volley on the tennis court, this is also a great place to do it. Open daily, there is a café on site serving healthy breakfasts, jacket potatoes and fresh salads.
If you would prefer to find your kicks outdoors, you won’t go wrong with Dover Sea Safari. A fantastically fun marine adventure, board a purpose-built speedboat for a powerboat ride. A number of tours are available here depending on what interests you – from a mission to find secret seals to a trip to Maunsell Forts – and all are well over an hour in length. A great outdoor activity in Dover for groups, trips range from £35–£80 per person and all need to be booked in advance through the Dover Sea Safari website.
Staying in the water, Dover Sea Sports Centre is located on a safe, square mile of sheltered water by Dover Marina. A hub of activity, you can go windsurfing, sailing, open water swimming, paddle boarding and more on this tranquil patch of water. Everything needs to be booked in advance on the Sea Sports Centre website and if all the heavy activity works up an appetite, make sure you head to Hythe Bay Seafood Restaurant next door which serves up delicious fish caught fresh from the sea.
If snow sports are more your thing, the Folkestone Ski Centre has something for everyone to enjoy. If you’re a pro at snowboarding and skiing, you can head straight to the 60-metre dry slope. If you’d like to learn more, people of all ages can learn here with classes for toddlers, tweens and adults starting at around £15 per hour. If you want to do something that’s fun for all the family, you can hop on a Sno-Ring – an inflatable raft that whizzes you down the slopes at a fairly fast speed. Folkestone Ski Centre can be found in Folkestone Sports Centre, a 20-minute drive from Dover town centre.
If you prefer to stay firmly on flat ground, The East Kent Railway is a great way to spend half a day in Dover. Running between Shepherdswell and Eythorne, this is a four-mile round trip that takes you on a scenic adventure showcasing the best of the Kent countryside. It’s about a 20-minute drive from Dover town centre, but it’s worth the trip. The line was constructed in the early 1900s to shift coal, so it holds a lot of historical significance which is all explained during the journey.
A stunning shingle beach at the base of the White Cliffs of Dover, St Margaret’s Bay Beach is a sight to behold. With plenty of activity including water sports and rock pooling, there is lots to keep you entertained. Parking is available close to the beach, and a lovely little refreshment hut serves hot and cold drinks as well as ice creams to cool you down in summer. If you want to make a full day of it, be sure to take a wander round the beautiful village of St Margaret’s Bay. Steeped in history, there are some stunning walks here and it’s packed full of tempting places to grab a bite to eat.
Located by Dover Marina, Dover Harbour Beach is a pleasant shingle beach, ideal for a stroll to take in some of Dover’s most beautiful sights including the White Cliffs and Dover Castle. There are plenty of water sports on offer at the Sea Sports Centre here where you can choose from a wide variety of activities for all abilities and ages. The water is Marine Conservation Society recommended, so it’s lovely and clear and there are kiosks surrounding the beach selling a selection of light snacks, drinks and ice creams. You can also rent deckchairs for a spot of sunbathing if it’s a sunny day.
Further up the coast in Folkestone is Sunny Sands Beach, a small, but popular, sandy beach a 15-minute drive from Dover Marina. Located next to Folkestone Harbour, there is lots to see and do here so after you’ve spent an afternoon soaking up the sun and splashing in the sea, you won’t have far to go for a good pub lunch or cold pint of beer. As one of the closest beaches to London, Sunny Sands can get quite busy in summer, but it is generally well looked after so is always lovely and clean. There are no water sport activities but you can surf in the sea, and the sand is ideal for building sandcastles – the beach even hosts an annual sandcastle building competition.
Winding north from Dover to Deal is The Cliffs and Castles Route, an 11-mile National Cycle Route on safe roads that takes in the magnificent White Cliffs of Dover and some of the most iconic castles in Britain. Everything is well signposted here, and the route is best followed from the starting point at the Port of Dover to ensure you see absolutely everything it has to offer. A little warning though, there are two routes you can take from the seafront to Dover Castle and both are pretty steep.
Another route that takes in the stunning sight of Dover’s cliffs is the Skylark Trail. Taking you from Walmer Station in Deal to Guston and Dover, there are some stunning views of the Kentish countryside to be seen on this 10-mile ride. There is also a great watering hole along the way where you can refuel with a nice bit of pub grub and a refreshing cup of tea.
If you’re a seasoned cyclist and are looking for something a bit longer, The Miner’s Cycle Trail is right up your street. A 30-mile ride that meanders through stunning countryside, it passes through many of the former mining villages in East Kent that are famous for their industrial heritage. A relatively new route in the area, it covers the lower parts of North Downs between Deal and Shepherdswell.
One of the most popular tours in the area is at the White Cliffs of Dover, and it’s easy to see why. This is one of the most iconic landscapes in Britain and is a breathtaking sight to see. Although the cliffs stretch for about 16 miles, you can do shorter walks to suit you. The views are gorgeous here no matter what time of year – or even day – you visit, and there is a wheelchair-friendly path too.
A self-guided sightseeing tour, the Historical Sights of Dover is a 5km walk starting at Dover Castle. From there it takes you on a journey through the rich history of this small town, passing by The Grand Shaft, Harbour Battery and seven more attractions. Taking around two hours, it ends by Dover Marina, where you can head for a spot of lunch and a drink looking out over the sea.
Known for its colourful pub history – and being one of the main locations for distributing illicit alcohol in the 1700s – Dover has many traditional pubs worth visiting. This self-guided Dover Pubs Tour takes you round the best of these including The Park Inn, The Louis Armstrong, and The Eight Bells. Covering a distance of 1.7km, this should only take an hour, but will probably last much longer if you stop off for a pint of real ale in each one!

Using the properties of magic covered in Part 1 of this series, all the different magics of the Known World are grouped into categories. The inception and study properties of any magic will determine its autonomy.
There are four types of autonomy: Basic, Advanced, Skillset, and Deep Magic.
Basic magic arises independently of any other skills, and is developed independently of any other skills.
Only the magic itself matters as an individual progresses towards mastery. For instance, a faerie learning air magic can create winds or updrafts without any need for external skills.
In the spell lists, basic magics are denoted by a [B].
Advanced magic arises independently of other skills, but its development depends on the development of related skills.
High-level magics often arise in young magic users, but these magics are weak and cannot be improved upon until the basic magics that support them are developed. For instance, a faerie must learn to move the air - a basic magic - before she can make clouds or evaporate puddles reliably.
In the spell lists, advanced magics are denoted by an [A], followed by the related skill or skills.
Skillset magic arises within the practice of a related skill, and its development depends on the improvement of that related skill.
Healing is a skillset magic because it relies on knowledge of the body's health and natural healing processes. For instance, a faerie cannot heal using air magic unless she first learns how the body's breath promotes wellness.
In the spell lists, skillset magics are denoted by an [S], followed by the related skill or skills.
Deep magic arises within the knowledge of a special language called Ryunic. Though it develops independently of any other skills, deep magic is very rare in my Tales of the Known World saga because the Ryunic language is not shared or taught.
Instead, certain individuals are born with this language dormant inside them. These rare few are called rosen, and even they don't remember Ryunic until they hear it spoken by someone else. Usually, a more experienced rosen will trigger the memory for an apprentice, then guide him through the rigors of development.
Because of the special language required, there are no documented spell lists for deep magic.

UK: An official survey has found 1.5m people in England are above the recommended safe number of units on a daily and weekly basis.
A further 6.3m are drinking "hazardous" levels of between 22 and 50 units for men and 15 to 35 for women, the Indications of Public Health in the English Regions report found.
The Government recommends men should not drink more than 21 units a week and for women, it is just 14.
The worst area for alcohol abuse is the Northwest of England, where one in four men and almost one in five women drink "at harmful levels," the report said.
On average, men in the most rundown areas die 20 months earlier and women nine months because of drink.
Report co-author, Professor Mark Bellis, said: "Alcohol is now destroying the health gains we have made by reducing smoking.
"This report catalogues the real price we are paying for cheap alcohol and a culture where drinking to excess is not only tolerated but often encouraged."
Chief medical officer Sir Liam Donaldson has welcomed the report. He vowed the Government will find "innovative" ways to reduce the impact of harmful drinking."
The report was undertaken by the National Association of Public health Observatories at Liverpool John Moores University.

Back in January (brrr, I know) we had a little escape to a beautiful city in Mexico : Tulum. Now that summer break is upon us, we wanted to give you a little guide of our own and maybe inspire you to travel!
Tulum is renowned for their ability to adapt to the slow and calm rhythm of life. Taking a break and just enjoying the small moments are their speciality. On the main street, and in the narrowest streets, you can find small cafes and restaurants. During the day we enjoyed stopping by those restaurants after a long day walking in the sun. We also loved the little spots by the beach where we could stop and chill with a view over the sea (not bad at all).
Why? It’s the perfect spot to work on your projects! Be inspired by all the art on the walls and be sure to attend the local expositions for free. Also, the smoothies are amazing (like so f* good).
Why? They offer exquisite coffees and a breakfast menu that is very satisfying with all of its variety. They're also very conscious of their impact on the environment. That is why they offer organic coffee and that their menu is adapted with the local ingredients available the same day.
We all love to not feel like a tourist in a new country ; well to avoid that, going to a restaurant filled with locals is your best bet. It might not be inviting at first, however the dishes are less expensive and even more tasty!
Tulum is a very small city so it's easy to go to distance with a bike (a 15 minutes ride will get you to the beach). There's also the possibility to take a « colectivo » ; it’s a small van that costs next to nothing and that you can share with tourists and locals.
We found that activities in Tulum are fairly touristic ; it was impossible to find a moment in the day when it all quieted down but we did manage to see breathtaking views with water as clear as it can get. It's a must for sure.
The Cenotes are underground caves that were created by a meteor 65 millions years ago (the same one that caused the extinction of dinosaurs). There are more than a thousand caves in the region of Yucatan. They are known to be all connected to one to another (crazy eh?). To this day, divers are still exploring to find new passages and caves.

Can futures rolling affect curve constructing? Let's say that i'm using future 1 and 2 to construct the short end of my curve. As i understand it, rolling will create volatility (as volumes spike), which can affect the futures prices and thus the rates deduced from those futures. So is there a risk that the part of the curve implied from these futures presents some kind of jumps in this rolling period? Thank in advance.
Futures roll can potentially create some short-term imbalances that distort market pricing. Whether or not that should be accounted for in curve construction is philosophical. In my mind, there's no reason to – you're building a market-based curve, and you shouldn't override the market. You can, however, build a separate "fair value" curve which incorporates some of your personal views on where things should be trading at. Comparing this fair value curve with the market-based curve is how you discover relative value trading opportunities.

William Langland could have been looking for Blinks. This small plant has tiny pale green flowers that seem to be blinking, as they rarely open fully. The flowers form dense pale green moss-like patches beside springs.
They are seen on the Malvern hillsides in May. Or perhaps he had simply found a comfortable place to sit where he could watch his flock of sheep without interruption.
Actually, there is so much uncertainty about William Langland’s life that it would be impossible to say what he may have been doing on the Malvern Hills. Biographical details are very obscure. His famous poem, The Vision of Piers Plowman, provides little evidence for its author. The narrator, who is usually identified as being Langland, does say ‘…my name is longe wille’ which is thought to be a code for William Langland. What is known is that The Vision of Piers Plowman begins life on the Malvern Hills. The style of language used in the poem is similar to the dialect found in the south Midlands.
Some scholars suggest that as a young man, Langland studied at Little Malvern Priory and that later he incorporated the imagery around him in his scathing attacks on the clergy that fill the pages of Piers Plowman.
Take gluttony for example: this carving on one of the monk’s stalls at Little Malvern Priory shows two pigs feeding from a bag of acorns or corn. Were they perhaps behind the description of Langland’s ‘two greedy sows’?
And blown the round trumpet in rear of his rump.
So if William Langland was not drifting off to sleep looking at flowers blinking at him, perhaps he was really conjuring up memories of his youth that could be used to illustrate his major work?

Lee Memorial Health Systems v. Smith, 36 Fla. L. Weekly D212 (Fla. 2nd DCA, Jan. 28, 2011) was a medical malpractice case in which the hospital sought a protective order to prohibit plaintiff’s counsel from having communication with the plaintiff ward’s treating physicians who were employed by the hospital. None of the physicians in question were involved in the underlying malpractice and were simply subsequent treating physicians. The trial court denied the requested protective order and the hospital sought certiorari.
The hospital contended that the above rule has no exceptions and the plaintiffs countered that because the hospital employed physicians in question were not involved with the facts from which liability arose, the above quoted rule would not apply.
of civil or criminal liability. See also Barfuss v.
The compelling argument accepted by the Court was that a plaintiff’s attorney has the right to speak with a corporate employee of the defendant who was not involved in the underlying liability issues in the lawsuit or has the authority to bind the corporation on those issues. The Court bottomed its opinion on the necessity for plaintiff’s counsel to consult with treating physicians in a malpractice case. However, the underlying theory of the opinion would be equally applicable to any action. The Court indicated that this was a case of first impression and if followed by other District and sustained by the Supreme Court would make a sea change in the ability of counsel to contact current employees of a party.
Parenthetically, it should be noted that the same case was reviewed by the same Court on the issue of whether the hospital could speak ex parte with plaintiff ward’s treating physicians and not be in violation of Fla. Stat. 456.057(6) which has been held by numerous Courts to preclude ex parte contact with a patient’s physicians.
In Lee Memorial Health System v. Smith, 40 So. 3d 106 (Fla. 2nd DCA 2010), the same appellate court relied upon its opinion in Estate of Stephens ex rel. v. Galen Health Care, Inc., 911 So. 2d 277 (Fla. 2d DCA 2005), which case held that a hospital did not violate the above statute when it discussed with its own employed physicians the underlying allegations of medical malpractice against the hospital. In what seems a departure from the logic used in the second Lee Memorial Health System v. Smith case, the Second District in the first case rejected the Circuit Court’s conclusion that the Estate of Stephens case did not apply because the physicians in question were not involved in the underlying lawsuit and were merely subsequent treating physicians.
While the final word on the subject raised by this case has not been heard, this most recent pronouncement of the Second District is authority for contact a current employee of a party who was not involved in the underlying liability issues in a lawsuit nor has authority to bind the corporation regarding those issues.

But such political factors are only a partial explanation of what happened. We should remember that the ACA was far from the only Obama policy that was bitterly opposed by the GOP. Republicans were just as strongly united in opposition to other administration initiatives such as the 2009 stimulus bill. At least with respect to the stimulus, there was also considerable public skepticism. Yet no major legal challenge was ever mounted against the stimulus.
Why not? Certainly not because the Republicans were unwilling to try if they thought such an effort could work. The reason is that such challenges were doomed to failure because the legal arguments underpinning them would either lack credibility with legal professionals, require the overruling of a great deal of Supreme Court precedent, or both. By contrast, the legal challenge to Obamacare gained traction precisely because it was backed by serious legal arguments that did not require extensive revision of precedent to prevail.
And that’s precisely where the Volokh Conspiracy came in. As documented elsewhere in this book, VC posts had a significant influence on the development of the legal arguments put forward by the plaintiffs challenging the mandate….
Perhaps the most important role of the blog was breaking down the perception that there was an expert consensus supporting the constitutionality of the mandate. From early on, many defenders of the mandate claimed that virtually all experts on constitutional law agreed that the mandate was obviously constitutional, and that contrary views must be the result of either ignorance or partisan bias.
The Volokh Conspiracy was a crucial factor in countering this meme. By constantly presenting constitutional arguments against Obamacare developed by leading legal scholars, we called into question the initially dominant narrative that the case was an easy slam dunk for the government. People like Randy Barnett, David Kopel, and Jonathan Adler were prominent constitutional federalism scholars, and could not easily be dismissed as mere partisan hacks. The VC also helped highlight anti-mandate arguments developed by other leading scholars such as Gary Lawson and Richard Epstein.
It was never really true that the case against the mandate was “in the view of most legal professionals and academics, simply crazy.” From the very beginning, there was deep disagreement on the subject among experts. But the Volokh Conspiracy played a major role in driving this point home to legal professionals, the media, and the more attentive members of the general public. It was crucial that the VC presented these arguments in a forum that had a large audience among legal reporters, jurists, academics, and other elites. Most commentators who followed the case were at least aware of our arguments, even if they did not agree with them. The blog format also allowed us to react to events and respond to new opposing arguments “in real time,” thereby making it harder for defenders of the mandate to “shape the narrative” without opposition.
I recently posted another excerpt from my concluding essay, which discussed the legal significance of the Court’s decision in NFIB v. Sebelius.

As regular site visitors might already know, at least *cough* once per year *cough* the site experiences something called an Event Month. Over an extended period, lots of different features all connected to one certain topic are published on a daily basis. These Events take lots of time for planning and preparation, but once they are published, they have always been well-received by the audience.
An Event Month can center around specific characters (Summers), certain incidents (AoA) or a basic underlying theme (magic). In this section you can look up which features were released during the past Events, and how the concept improved with each take.

We will begin by going through many of the most common beneficiary designations, show how they should look and point out some of the issues that can occur.
All privacy is lost. The deceased estate is a matter of public record and by allowing insurance proceeds to flow into the estate anyone who cares to look can see what was left by the deceased. We can all think of instances where an insured may not want the size of the benefit nor the beneficiary known to the public, or even other family members. As long as there is a named beneficiary, privacy is kept intact.
Potential creditor proofing may be lost. For a policy to have the highest chance of successful creditor protection, it must have an individual person as owner and an individual(s) in the preferred beneficiary class named as beneficiary. As an aside, the preferred beneficiary class includes husband, children, grandchildren, mother, father or adopting parents of insured, wife, adopted children and children of adopted children.
Probate and legal fees become payable. If insurance proceeds are paid into the estate they now become subject to probate and legal fees. Combined, these two fees may account for up to 1.5 % of the value of the estate. One can easily see these fees may become significant in any medium to large size estate.
Timing of payout. Even a small simple estate takes time to go through the probate and legal process. The time spent with lawyers and the courts is magnified many times as the size of the estate grows.
I personally cannot think of many situations where having the estate named as beneficiary is the optimal choice. Even for individuals without any immediate heirs should find someone or something i.e. a church or a favorite charity as the beneficiary.
Single person designation. A single individual beneficiary designation should contain the beneficiary’s full legal name and MUST be kept current. The same is true if the beneficiary is a legal entity such as the insured’s corporation. The designation must clearly identify the company by its full legal name. There are cases when a company promotes itself under one name but its true legal name is another. For example the legal name may be ABCXYZ Corporation doing business as (Friends Pizza). If the legal name is not used for the beneficiary designation the payout of the death benefit will be unduly delayed. It should be noted that almost any person or business can be named as a beneficiary. However if the selection is not appropriate, example a minor child, the payout again will be stalled. If there is not a beneficiary designation, the insurance proceeds get paid to the insured’s estate.
Contingent beneficiary. It is almost always recommended, particularly when dealing with individuals, to have a contingent beneficiary named. By definition the word contingent means likely but not certain to happen. If the primary beneficiary is no longer alive then the proceeds still have a designated place to go.
Multiple beneficiaries. There are many instances, particularly with an individual person as insured, that more than one person is the desired beneficiary. Take the example of a single parent with several children, the insured wishes the proceeds to be divided amongst the children. It must be noted that the proceeds need not be divided equally. When listing multiple beneficiaries, it is essential that each single beneficiary be assigned a percentage of the death benefit. Example: Son A 40%, Son B 40%, and Son C 20%. The reason for stating percentages of the death benefit instead of fixed dollar amounts is the size of the benefit may vary over time if you consider a universal life, a whole life policy or even a segregated fund. All create proceeds at death with a tendency to change over time. At the risk of stating the obvious, the percentages must equal 100%. A potential problem arises if one or more of the primary beneficiaries are deceased. In this case with a deceased beneficiary, the proceeds are then divided pro rata amongst the survivors. Some carriers allow the option that if one beneficiary predeceases the insured his/her portion can revert to the insured’s estate. The example of multiple beneficiaries highlights why staying in touch with clients and keeping beneficiary designation current is critical.
It is possible in the case of multiple beneficiaries to have contingent beneficiaries for one or more of the primary beneficiaries. Look at the example above with Son A, Son B and Son C. The designations could look like 40% Son A, or to spouse of Son A if deceased, 40% to Son B or to 3 adult children equally if Son B deceased, and 20% to Son C or to SPCA if Son C deceased.
In Trust For. In certain cases we see ITF designation (in trust for) particularly in reference to minor children. For example, a divorced individual with a child from his first marriage may designate the beneficiaries as follow: proceeds go to (brother) ITF for son. The thought behind the ITF designation is that the funds will be “looked after” by a trusted individual on behalf of the beneficiary. There are however certain drawbacks that go along with an ITF designation. First, the ITF designation does not take into account the possibility that the trustee may be deceased or unable or unwilling to act as trustee. In this case the insurance proceeds are paid to the provincial public trustee to be managed under the government very restrictive guidelines.
Secondly, there is no guidance provided to the trustee as to where the money can be invested nor how is it to be spent. Generally, it is accepted that the trustee will spend money only on the care, comfort, education and betterment of the child. This understanding is not carved in stone and gives the trustee a great degree of latitude as to where the money can be spent. For example, if the trustee decides the child would be better off with a new sports car no one is there to stop him. With no direction as to where the funds can be invested, the trustee could potentially invest in newly issued penny stock with the expectation of making millions. If however, the stock does not perform to the promoter’s representations (imagine that) the child could be left with nothing.
Next, when the child reaches the age of majority he/she is permitted to go to the trustee and demand their share of the proceeds. Most people would not be happy with the idea of their 18 or 19 year old child receiving a large amount of cash. Along the same lines, an ITF designation gives no guidance to the trustee as to how the funds should be distributed and when. For the proceeds of a policy to be managed effectively, a formal trust agreement should be drawn up. This will insure investment guidelines are set, distribution guidelines are set, and the final dissolving of the trust is set. For smaller estates, people still may wish to use the ITF designation but great care must be taken in the selection of the trustee and keeping the trustee designation current.
Irrevocable beneficiaries (IB). Many of us are familiar with the term IB, but in my experience the IB designation does not provide as much security for the named beneficiary as many people suspect. Many people are under the mistaken impression that an IB designation means the beneficiary is notified before any changes are made to a policy. This is in fact not true. The beneficiary designation on a policy cannot be changed without the IB’s written permission. After that, the security of the IB designation mostly stops. An insured can reduce the face amount of a policy, change the investment options on a policy, or even stop paying premiums and the IB is not notified. Only after a policy has lapsed is the IB notified. Now the IB must go to the process of trying, if possible, to get the policy re-instated.
For the most part, our carriers are pretty good at making sure the beneficiary designations they receive conform to accepted standards. If for some reason a beneficiary designation is unclear, the proceeds may get held up at the insurer level until the matter is resolved. There are very rare instances, but more and more in our increasingly litigious society, where a beneficiary designation may be contested. The most usual case of a beneficiary designation being contested is when an individual feels they have been unjustly left out, or the share they have been allocated is not appropriate. In these cases the proceeds are either held by the insurer or paid to a public trustee and the matter goes to court for a judge to unravel. This is a very complex area of law and far beyond the scope of this blog.

How do I handle guests with food allergies?
Ina Garten tells you how to be prepared for even the pickiest guests.
How do you feel about people who announce their food allergies when you invite them to dinner?
First of all, I remind myself that these are my friends, and that I want them to have a good time. Then I list all the things my guests can't eat and design one menu that avoids all those foods. I don't want a friend who can't eat nuts to feel different, so I'll make the apple crisp that I'd planned without the walnuts in the topping. If there are vegetarians, I'll make the standing rib roast that I'd planned, but also maybe polenta to go with the vegetables, to be sure there's something substantial for the non-meat-eater. For dessert, I often serve two or three things anyway: one dessert, plus fresh fruit and chocolates. People love to choose exactly what they want to eat and have a little of this and that. It's no more difficult for me, and my friends feel that I love them enough to make the extra effort for them.

The JNF claims to be an organisation dedicated to ‘Greening the State of Israel through the creation, improvement and maintenance of forests and the preservation of natural landscapes and open spaces’. 1 The reality, however, is often very different.
The non-indigenous trees that the JNF have historically planted are poorly suited to the Israeli/Palestinian environment. They are often planted in areas exposed to extreme dry heat, where “the JNF’s trees go up like tinder,” 2 contributing to devastating forest fires, such as the Carmel wildfires of 2010. Additionally, while animals indigenous to the desert landscape have historically lived off only native shrubs, tree plantings have caused invading species such as mice, rats, crows and birds of prey including shrikes and kestrels, to come to the area and destroy the local fauna. One threatened species is the leopard fringe-fingered lizard, a rare species that lives only in the Be’er Sheva area. 3 The introduced specieas take advantage of the comfortable conditions provided by the trees to prey on local animals and dominate the food sources. An example of this is taking place in the Yatir area at the edge of the Negev desert.
JNF promotes itself as a green charity, fundraising in Jewish communities around the word to support tree planting, and other environmental initiatives in Israel. But what is the JNF really doing with your money?

The fake Chamber press release distributed to reporters Monday looked like an authentic document from the Chamber, with a logo and contact information for follow-up stories. But there were clues that it was false. The name of Chamber president Tom Donohue was misspelled, and the individuals listed as press contacts do not work at the Chamber.
And the press release said that the Chamber is implementing an “immediate moratorium on lobbying and publicity work opposing climate legislation” – and suggested that high-profile defections from Apple, Nike PG&E and other companies played a role in the decision.
In fact, the Chamber opposes – and continues to oppose – the cap-and-trade bill passed by the House in July.
The fake press release said that Donohue would be announcing the policy shift in a speech at the National Press Club Monday morning. Donohue gave no such speech, but Bichlbaum and other imposters posing as Chambers officials did attempt to hold a press conference at the facility Monday.
It came to an abrupt end when a real representative of the Chamber showed up to confront the imposters.
Bill McCarren, general manager of the National Press Club, said that an organization calling itself the U.S. Council on Climate – same initials as the Chamber– booked space at the club on Friday. On Monday, the group asked that its contact information be changed: The new information included a number for the real Chamber of Commerce, tipping off the press club that there was a hoax taking place.
The group used the Chamber’s logo in staging the new s conference, and also had a sign-in sheet for reporters that listed it as a Chamber of Commerce event.
McCarren said the group paid for the room—the typical cost is about $500—and would not be permitted to hold future events.
the proper headline should be "reuters does no fact checking and makes fools of themselves"
I'm sure Obama fed Reuters the story.....Chicago style politics.
I can't wait until November 2010 to run these guys out on a rail.
unlike what the obamanation of a president thinks, Fox is the only real news outlet and they did not fall for this garbage. MSM stupidity in motion.
I think our president should be entered into the Guinness book of records for being the first person elected president born without a brain. Waite I guess he is second, Carter beat him to it.
HA! I can't believe they fell for that! What a buncha morons!
That the NY Times and the Post accepted this ridiculously worded press release without verifying its authenticity says volumes about their inherent bias and shoddy professionalism. I say this as a lifelong journalist: If they're the "fair and balanced" media, we're all screwed.
Ah......The "fair-minded" Dem propagandists do their work!
Keep in mind that last week CNN did a "fact check" on an SNL skit about Obama. Will it do an "fact check" on this organizations activities? Will it conclude it has engaged in "serios erroros"?
Don't really care if the Chamber was victimized. They have spent their time and money victimizing American's with their motive of greed. Since they began agressive actions against health care I have listed all member in my local chamber and publically asked people to boycott those businesses. It is not about the businesses promoting their businesses but the Chamber getting into mine.
Is Obama Poised to Cede US Sovereignty?
FALLACY - Man is causing global warming.
FACT - The entire history of man made climate change is full of failed theories and incorrect assumptions.
DANGER - Increasing big gov control Dictatorship as a result of the insane ( or planned ) US energy policy.
SOLUTION - Increasing energy independence by investment in NUCLEAR POWER and clean coal while increasing funding for renewable energy research. Properly dismissing as irrelevant the foolish and dangerous environmental radicals - DRILL NOW. Its freedom lovers verses the STATISTS backed by an elitist hive-minded MEDIA who seek an impoverished Utopia of Socialist Orwellian drones.
RESULT - A safer more prosperous US and world.
Simple solutions exist but lib/progs will always reject the obvious for ideology.
I'm sure Reuters is a "real" news organization like CNN that 0zer0 schill Dunn was ranting about. Yep, love those "real" news organizations and their hard hitting investigative journalism. No media bias at all at Reuters, AP, CNN, NBC, CBS, ABC, NYTimes, WPost, etc - just hard hitting invetigative journalism ALL AGAINST CONSERVATIVES and FREE PASSES to 0zer0 and the dumbcrat libs!
Just like 0zer0, he and his ACORN groups and State Run Media LIES!
oh wait... that's like asking the fox to guard the hen house isn't it!
Thank goodness for the Chamber sticking up for American businesses. I can't believe the Obama administration adds the JOB CREATORS as those thrown under the bus and added to their ever growing ENEMIES LIST. This admin. is truly SCARY!
"Several meeting organizations fell for it."
What is a meeting organization?
Tom Brokaw and Tom Friedman think we hayseeds need professional filters like themselves to protect us from inaccurate informations.
Kind of like climate change legislation that cannot change the climate.
And they wonder why they have such a small audience.
What a joke! This is the kind of "news" Axelrod, Emanuel and Obama stand behind. How about CNN doing a fact check on an SNL skit? Cap and Trade will be the final straw that breaks America's back. Throw these bums out!!!!

Turning the page on years of war and recession, President Barack Obama summoned a divided nation Monday to act with "passion and dedication" to broaden equality and prosperity at home, nurture democracy around the world and combat global warming as he embarked on a second term before a vast and cheering crowd that spilled down the historic National Mall.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Turning the page on years of war and recession, President Barack Obama summoned a divided nation Monday to act with "passion and dedication" to broaden equality and prosperity at home, nurture democracy around the world and combat global warming as he embarked on a second term before a vast and cheering crowd that spilled down the historic National Mall.
"America's possibilities are limitless, for we possess all the qualities that this world without boundaries demands," the 44th president declared in a second inaugural address that broke new ground by assigning gay rights a prominent place in the wider struggle for equality for all.
In a unity plea to politicians and the nation at large, he called for "collective action" to confront challenges and said, "Progress does not compel us to settle centuries-long debates about the role of government for all time — but it does require us to act in our time."
Elected four years ago as America's first black president, Obama spoke from specially constructed flag-bedecked stands outside the Capitol after reciting the oath of office that all presidents have uttered since the nation's founding.
The events highlighted a day replete with all the fanfare that a security-minded capital could muster — from white-gloved Marine trumpeters who heralded the arrival of dignitaries on the inaugural stands to the mid-winter orange flowers that graced the tables at a traditional lunch with lawmakers inside the Capitol.
The weather was relatively warm, in the mid-40s, and while the crowd was not as large as on Inauguration Day four years ago, it was estimated at up to 1 million.
Big enough that he turned around as he was leaving the inaugural stands to savor the view one final time.
"I'm not going to see this again," said the man whose political career has been meteoric — from the Illinois Legislature to the U.S. Senate and the White House before marking his 48th birthday.
On a day of renewal for democracy, everyone seemed to have an opinion, and many seemed eager to share it.
"I'm just thankful that we've got another four years of democracy that everyone can grow in," said Wilbur Cole, 52, a postman from suburban Memphis, Tenn., who spent part of the day visiting the civil rights museum there at the site where the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated in 1968.
The inauguration this year shared the day with King's birthday holiday, and the president used a Bible that had belonged to the civil rights leader for the swearing-in, along with a second one that had been Abraham Lincoln's. The president also paused inside the Capitol Rotunda to gaze at a dark bronze statue of King.
Others watching at a distance were less upbeat than Cole. Frank Pinto, 62, and an unemployed construction contractor, took in the inaugural events on television at a bar in Hartford, Conn. He said because of the president's policies, "My grandkids will be in debt and their kids will be in debt."
The tone was less overtly political in the nation's capital, where bipartisanship was on the menu in the speechmaking and at the congressional lunch.
"Congratulations and Godspeed," House Speaker John Boehner, a Republican, said to Obama and Vice President Joe Biden as he presented them with flags that had flown atop the Capitol.
Outside, the Inaugural Parade took shape, a reflection of American musicality and diversity that featured military units, bands, floats, the Chinese American Community Center Folk Dance Troupe from Hockessin, Del., and the Isiserettes Drill & Drum Corps from Des Moines, Iowa.
The crowds were several rows deep along parts of the route, and security was intense. More than a dozen vehicles flanked the president's limousine as it rolled down Pennsylvania Avenue, and several agents walked alongside on foot.
As recent predecessors have, the president emerged from his car and walked several blocks on foot. His wife, Michelle, was with him, and the two held hands while acknowledging the cheers from well-wishers during two separate strolls along the route.
A short time later, accompanied by their children and the vice president and his family, the first couple settled in to view the parade from a reviewing stand built in front of the White House.
A pair of nighttime inaugural balls completed the official proceedings.
In his brief, 18-minute speech, Obama did not dwell on the most pressing challenges of the past four years. He barely mentioned the struggle to reduce the federal deficit, a fight that has occupied much of his and Congress' time and promises the same in months to come.
"A decade of war is now ending. An economic recovery has begun," said the president who presided over the end to the U.S. combat role in Iraq, set a timetable for doing the same in Afghanistan and took office when the worst recession in decades was still deepening.
The former community organizer made it clear he views government as an engine of progress. While that was far from surprising for a Democrat, his emphasis on the need to combat global climate change was unexpected, as was his firm new declaration of support for full gay rights.
In a jab at climate-change doubters, he said, "Some may still deny the overwhelming judgment of science, but none can avoid the devastating impact of raging fires and crippling drought and more powerful storms." He said America must lead in the transition to sustainable energy resources.
His speech hinted only barely at issues likely to spark opposition from Republicans who hold power in the House.
He cited a need for legislation to ease access to voting, an issue of particular concern to minority groups, and to immigration reform and gun-control legislation that he is expected to go into at length in his State of the Union speech on Feb. 12.

text: Dispersion games are the generalization of the anti-coordination game to arbitrary numbers of agents and actions. In these games agents prefer outcomes in which the agents are maximally dispersed over the set of possible actions. This class of games models a large number of natural problems, including load balancing in computer science, niche selection in economics, and division of roles within a team in robotics. Our work consists of two main contributions. First, we formally define and characterize some interesting classes of dispersion games. Second, we present several learning strategies that agents can use in these games, including traditional learning rules from game theory and artificial intelligence, as well as some special purpose strategies. We then evaluate analytically and empirically the performance of each of these strategies.

Here is a high-level procedure for assessing your needs. Answering the following questions can help you determine the best way to get data into your Splunk instance.
What kind of data do I want to index? The type of data you want to index affects how you get data in. For example, if you are working with a hand-built application, you might want to use HEC to get data in. See What data can I index?.
Is there an app for that? If there is an app for the type of data you want to get in, you can save yourself considerable time in configuring and tweaking inputs. It is recommended to use an app if it exists for the type of data you want to get in. See Use apps to get data in.
Where does the data reside? For an Enterprise instance, data may be local or remote. If you have a Cloud instance, data is always remote. If the data is remote, you'll need to use a forwarder or HEC to get data to your Splunk instance. See Where is my data?
Should I use forwarders to access remote data? See Use forwarders to get data in.
What do I want to do with the indexed data? See What is Splunk knowledge? in the Knowledge Manager Manual.
Apps. Splunk has a variety of apps that offer preconfigured inputs for various data types. For more information, see Use apps to get data in.
Splunk Web. You can configure most inputs using the Splunk Web data input pages. You can access the Add Data landing page from Splunk Home. In addition, when you upload or monitor a file, you can preview and make adjustments to how the file is to be indexed..
The Splunk Command Line Interface (CLI). If you have Splunk Enterprise, you can use the CLI to configure most types of inputs.
The inputs.conf configuration file. When you specify your inputs with Splunk Web or the CLI, the details are saved in a configuration file, inputs.conf. If you have Splunk Enterprise, you can edit that file directly. Some advanced data input needs might require you to edit it.
In addition, if you configure forwarders to send data from outlying machines to a central indexer, you can specify some inputs at installation time. See Use forwarders to get data in.
Select Settings > Data inputs from the Data section of the Settings pop-up menu.
The Add Data page has options to get data in. Click an icon to go to a page to define the data you want to upload, monitor, or forward.
For more help on how to use the "Add Data" page, see How do you want to add data?
When you add an input through Splunk Web, Splunk adds that input to a copy of inputs.conf. The app context, that is, the Splunk app you are currently in when you configure the input, determines where Splunk Enterprise writes the inputs.conf file.
For example, if you navigated to the Settings page directly from the Search page and then added an input, Splunk Enterprise adds the input to $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/search/local/inputs.conf.
When you add inputs, confirm that you are in the app context that you want to be in. For background on how configuration files work, read About configuration files in the Splunk Enterprise Admin manual.
For more information on the CLI, including how to get command line help, see About the CLI in the Admin manual.
You can edit inputs.conf to configure your inputs. You use a text editor to create or modify the file, where you can add a stanza for each input. You can add the stanza to the inputs.conf file in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/system/local/, or in your custom application directory (in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/<app name>/local).
You can configure the data input by adding key/value pairs to its stanza. You can set multiple settings in an input stanza. If you do not specify a value for a setting, Splunk Enterprise uses the default setting value. Default values for all inputs.conf attributes are in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/system/default/inputs.conf.
If you have not worked with configuration files, see About configuration files. before starting to add inputs.
The following example configuration directs Splunk Enterprise to listen on TCP port 9995 for raw data from any remote host. Splunk Enterprise uses the DNS name of the remote host to set the host of the data. It assigns the source type "log4j" and the source "tcp:9995" to the data.
For information on how to configure a specific input, see the topic in this manual for that input. For example, to learn how to configure file inputs, see Monitor files and directories with inputs.conf.
The topic for each data input describes the main attributes available for that input. See the inputs.conf spec file for the complete list of available attributes, including descriptions of the attributes and several examples.
To get started with getting data into your Splunk deployment, point it at some data by configuring an input. There are several ways to do this. The easiest way is to use Splunk Web.
Alternatively, you can download and enable an app, such as the Splunk App for Microsoft Exchange or Splunk IT Service Intelligence.
The Guided Data Onboarding (GDO) feature also provides end-to-end guidance for getting select data sources into specific Splunk platform deployments.
From your home page in Splunk Web, find the data onboarding guides by clicking Add Data. From there you can select a data source and configuration type. Then view diagrams, high-level steps, and documentation links that help you set up and configure your data source.
You can find all the Guided Data Onboarding manuals by clicking the Add data tab on the Splunk Enterprise Documentation site.
Splunk software can index any time-series data, usually without additional configuration. If you have logs from a custom application or device, process it with the default configuration first. If you do not get the results you want, you can tweak things to make sure the software indexes your events correctly.
See Overview of event processing and How indexing works so that you can make decisions about how to make Splunk software work with your data. Consider the following scenarios for collecting data.
Are the events in your data more than one line? See Configure event line breaking.
Is your data in an unusual character set? See Configure character set encoding.
Is the Splunk software unable to determine the timestamps correctly? See How timestamp assignment works.
After you configure the inputs or enable an app, your Splunk deployment stores and processes the specified data. You can go to either the Search app or the main app page and begin exploring the data that you collected.
To learn how to configure an input, see Configure your inputs.
To learn how to add data to your Splunk deployment, see How do you want to add data?.
To learn how to experiment with adding a test index, see Use a test index.
To learn about how to add source types, see "The Set Sourcetype page."
To learn what event processing is and how to configure it, see How Splunk software handles your data.
To learn how to delete data from your Splunk deployment, see Delete indexed data and start over.
To learn about how to configure your inputs with a default index, see Point your inputs at the default index.
