SALISBURY — A Salisbury woman perished and her 14-month-old infant was clinging to life after a head-on collision on Route 50 just west of the Bay Bridge on Wednesday afternoon.
Maryland State Police (MSP) are continuing to investigate a crash on westbound Route 50 near Route 2 in Annapolis that claimed the life of a local woman and injured two others including a 14-month-old child. The deceased victim has been identified as Laura Ashley Murphy, 22, of Salisbury, who was pronounced deceased on the scene. Murphy was driving a 2017 Volkswagen Tiguan at the time of the collision.
The other passenger in Murphy’s vehicle was 14-month-old infant. The child was flown by MSP medevac helicopter to Johns Hopkins where he was undergoing treatment for injuries sustained in the crash late Wednesday evening. The driver of the vehicle that was struck head-on had not been identified as of late Wednesday pending the notification of next of kin. EMS personnel extricated that victim from his vehicle and transported him via a second MSP medevac helicopter to Shock Trauma in Baltimore. The third vehicle involved in the crash was driven by Anthony Stanley, 59, of Bowie. Stanley was uninjured in the collision.
Shortly before 1:30 p.m. on Wednesday, MSP troopers from the Annapolis barrack responded to multiple calls reporting a vehicle traveling in the wrong direction on Route 50. As troopers were headed to the area, additional calls were received reporting the crash. As MSP troopers arrived on the scene, they found fire and rescue personnel attending to the victim, who was pronounced deceased on the scene.
As of late Wednesday, MSP troopers were still on the scene, conducting an investigation and obtaining additional information. The preliminary information indicates Murphy was driving westbound in the eastbound lanes of Route 50 roughly a quarter of a mile east of the Severn River Bridge when the crash occurred. According to police reports, it is unknown where Murphy initially entered Route 50 or why she was traveling in the wrong lanes.
Murphy’s vehicle collided with the Mercedes SUV driven by the unnamed victim and the SUV came to rest on the side of the highway in a wooded area with the driver trapped inside. EMS providers requested a GO-TEAM response and shortly after 4 p.m. the driver was extricated and transported by helicopter to the R. Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center.


The Huskies fall to 1-8 on the season.
Not the showing, UConn football wanted after winning last week.
The Huskies look to win two in a row for the first time since the 2017 season.
A few cosmetic changes to the two-deep this week as guys return from injury or Covid-19 protocols.
The Huskies grabbed their first win of 2021.
Interim head coach Lou Spanos should be back on the sidelines for Saturday’s game.
The Huskies winless streak continues.
One team will leave McGuirk Stadium on Saturday with their first win of the 2021 season.
Interim head coach Lou Spanos is one of them, so defensive line coach Dennis Dottin-Carter will be acting head coach against UMass.
Tyler Phommachanh is out indefinitely after his knee injury versus Vanderbilt.
The Huskies came agonizingly close to their first win but gave up the game-winning score as time expired.
The Huskies head to Nashville after a strong showing last week against Wyoming.
Most of the change this week are at backup positions.
UConn fell just short in their best effort of the season.
The Huskies face their second Mountain West opponent of the season.
Multiple changes on the offensive side of the ball for Lou Spanos’ UConn squad.
The Huskies take on a fellow independent that boasts one of the best rushing attacks in the country.
Any change could be good change for an offense that has been shut out against FBS opposition so far in 2021

Celebrate the holiday with us. We'll be serving up our regular menu along with feature items.
Sunday, May 13, 2018
The service was great! Alexis was extra nice and knowledgeable!
Server was excellent, food was fantastic, as always. I come here for special occasions.
This was my first time going to Legals Seafoods and my experience was fantastic. The service was awesome and the food was very delicious. I will be going back often.
The food was delicious and the waitress was outstanding!
We have visited Legal Sea Foods twice in the past two weeks. On both occasions we were very pleased with this restaurant, once with 4 persons, another with 8 persons. On both occasions,
we were very pleased with the friendly and efficient service of long-time employee Rose. The creative food and the great variety of drinks and wines are reasonably priced. The atmosphere is very pleasant. In short, you will not be disappointed at this restaurant. Henri Gautschi and Friends.
Legal seafood quality varies from location to location. This experience was just so-so. Good wait staff and all, but my fish and chips were greasy. Eww. Chowder was nice and hot tho.
My sister and I ate there the night before we left for Disney . We had a very early flight so it was s great place to eat. Our waiter was fantastic and knew what to offer on the menu.
Chowder is good but so overpriced
Salmon is good but served with the skin on
Good jasmine rice
Miss the seafood antipasto and the snow peas which used to be on the menu
Some entrees are smoked unnecessarily
Great chocolate cake!
Excellent Shrimp Scampi over pasta
Very good fried clams
Legal Seafood in Warwick never disappoints. Great food, great service.
I booked a reservation through Open Table. When I arrived We were seated promptly and were greeted immediately by the wait staff. We ordered drinks and and an appetizer which came almost immediately!! We ordered our main course and that came promptly as well. All in All a great meal and cozy atmosphere! We will return again soon!
We met there with old friends that we hadn’t seen in a while. The food was excellent, the rolls were warm and delicious. My meal included more shrimp than I expected.
Always wonderful, uncomplicated, healthful food, served by wait-staff who are experienced (or very well trained) and courteous. Legal in Warwick is one of our go-to places.
We had a terrific meal. We had a very friendly waiter named Keith who helped us make wonderful choices and was very attentive to our meal needs. Food was outstanding. One individual had an incredible bowl of chowder and a cheeseburger. They said it was the best cheeseburger they ever ate and all our fish meals were very fresh.
All meals were under seasoned! I have had much better meals at Legal Seafood places in the past.
The food was excellent. The service was quick and pleasant. I would go back again.
Had a reservation for eight, but rolled in with ten. Staff were quickly able to accommodate our additional guests. Food came out quickly and as expected. Waiter was friendly and offered to split the bill by couple. A+
Fresh seafood (as usual). We each enjoyed our meals (Grilled Haddock w/ sides and Grilled Salmon w/ sides). The sides were tasty and dessert was delicious. We experienced great service, too.
Fantastic as always!
The food was excellent as was Keith, our server. The clear chowder is the best I have ever had, and I am a native Rhode Islander. The clamcakes were tasty as well, albeit a bit small. My dish of sashimi tuna, Kimchi, seaweed salad, spinach, and rice was excellent, as were the other two meals. My only negative would be the Savignon Blanc by the glass selection, was not good and neither was the cappuccino, which we sent back because of the lack of foam...when it came back it wan't much better and the "espresso" seemed very weak. Perhaps they were having problems with the machine, but we should have been told of that situation.
Mary-Beth was a pleasure to meet as well as the Chef
We sat at the bar and our bartenders Jess and Lou were attentive, knowledgeable and gracious hosts. We will definitely go back.
Always great. Never a bad meal. They are moving to another location that has terrible parking.
Drinks are skimpy per usual. Food was way below par.
Shrimp week or month was excellent. Shrimp tacos were really good as was the clam chowder. Should be on the menu always.
Great service. Love the menu. Go there all the time.Saturday night. Fish was not as great as usual. Maybe just off night.
Great dinner. My boyfriend and I went in on a date looking for some healthy options . Our server was kind and very knowledgeable . He was a great balance of personable and professional which allowed us a great meal. The chefs prepare our meals expertly and even modified them slightly to keep in our strict eating plan. Very great experience. Thank the chefs for me
We usually go to the Legal in Boston, but decided to frequent this location because of "Restaurant Week". The meal was okay, but not really up to the quality of previous visits to other locations. With so many great restaurants out there, do yourself a favor and go explore other establishments.
If you want a great place to have lunch Legal Seafood is the place to dine! Amazing service, fabulous food choices and fun ambiance! It's our go to restaurant for a casual and reasonable lunch!
My sister and I stopped here before her flight. Definitely one of the best options around! Our waitress was super nice and the food came out very quickly. Thank you legal for another great meal!
We had dinner on 1/14/18. Service was excellent- attentive but not overbearing. Food was very good - calamari was cooked perfectly. Fish & chips was a generous portion and cooked well. Swordfish piccata was tasty, but pasta was a little gloppy and stuck together. Maple bread pudding was a great ending.
We had another fabulous birthday dinner with big 2 pound lobsters! Great service...great wine...amazing seafood! :)
Easy to book a reservation and very quick to be seated once I arrived. The food was fresh, authentic, and delivered promptly. Wait staff was average - no complaints, but nothing out of the ordinary.
We visited the Warwick Legal Seafood on Sunday New Year's eve. It was crowded, but we were not rushed at all. Service was excellent, as was the food.
One of our guests has a shellfish allergy and they were very careful with our food. Each time they explained how it was prepared when brought to the table. A great experience for that first time guest.
Very satisfied as usual. We stayed a while and staff said it was very good even when many people came. We will return again.
My husband and I have spent every Christmas, Thanksgiving and Easter at Legal Seafood for the past 6 years. We are retired, have had a lifetime of cooking for families and it’s a wonderful tradition we started. Sometimes we invite family members and sometimes not. We usually have a few additional dinners at Legal during the course of the year when people are visiting or just to get out.
Thank you for your wonderfully consistent sea food!
Haven’t been here in 10 years until Christmas Day.
Best server I have had at any restaurant...ever! Food was great, and they did not try to rush us out even though they were busy.
My family chose to dine at Legal's on Christmas Eve. We chose this restaurant because of the quality of the menu and we could be assured of a somewhat special meal. The waiter's banter diminished our experience. It was clear that he wanted us to pace the meal according to his schedule, either to turn the table or so that he could leave. We felt rushed when we would have liked to have lingered over a leisurely meal. We will not return to this location any time soon and will not recommend it.
Always love this restaurant - great food and service. Keith is the best waiter. Can't wait for the new restaurant to open but will miss the old one on Post Road.
I love this place. Sorry to hear they are moving. Keith is our favorite waiter!

Jenna Ortega stated that she has never had to “put her foot down” on set as much as she did on Wednesday. Recently, on Dax Shepard’s “Armchair Expert” podcast, the actress portraying the eponymous “child of woe” discussed various aspects of working on the show, including how “everything that Wednesday does” makes no sense from a character standpoint. About a year ago, Ortega stated that everyone had a distinct opinion regarding the emotional intensity of Wednesday. Tim Burton, who directed four episodes of the show’s first season, “did not want me to have any expression or emotion at all,” whereas Ortega believed that Wednesday should be emotional at moments. Which she reaffirmed throughout “Armchair Expert.”
Collaboration with Tim Burton on
One of the most well-known aspects of Wednesday is the routine, which has since gone viral and caused the scene’s song to skyrocket up the charts. Initially, it was intended to be very distinct from the final product. According to Ortega, the original intention of the performance was for everyone to dance together. During the interview, Ortega also praised Burton, describing him as “genuinely such a nice guy.” Typically, Ortega would approach a director and ask them to inform her if she was bad so that she could fix it. With Burton, he stated, “No, try whatever you want,” and he would only intervene if he believed there was “something that really stood out.”
Jenna Ortega on Wednesday’s One Detail Tim Burton was the Most Insistence On
Jenna Ortega, star of the Netflix series, discloses a crucial aspect of the character that the director would never give up. The Addams Family and Wednesday have reclaimed the top spot, thanks to Netflix and Tim Burton. The original series on the platform, created by the renowned director of such blockbusters as Edward Scissorhands, became a worldwide phenomenon and one of the most-watched series of the previous year.
After a lengthy delay, the streaming service renewed the show for a second season, which was delayed because the show’s leading lady, Jenna Ortega, had to negotiate a new contract.
However, playing Wednesday has not been simple. The actress disclosed that, between cello lessons and long filming days, she experienced extremely stressful moments during production. Even the cosmetics of the character were a burdensome detail that could never be omitted.
Ortega revealed on a recent episode of Hot Ones that Burton insisted on one particular aspect of Wednesday’s appearance: “Even on the first day when they were trying to establish what my hair was going to look like, we ran two hours behind because ‘No, her braids are uneven. This one is lower than this one. He didn’t like the way my fringe looked at the time, so he simply asked, “Hey, may I may I do that?” He respectfully requested the hairdresser’s assistance and then did my hair himself.”
Tim is notorious for his fixation with everything that appears on camera, despite the scale of his productions. Given the nature of Wednesday’s character, it is comprehensible that the director insisted that her appearance be absolutely flawless.
Jenna Ortega Has Seen a Successful Career So Far
After a brief appearance in Iron Man 3, Jenna swiftly transitioned to the horror genre with her role in Insidious 2. There is no doubt, however, that Netflix’s entry into her career was decisive. With a larger character in Yes Day alongside Jennifer Garner, the actress later appeared in one of the platform’s most successful productions, You. Simultaneously, she appeared in The Fallout, a critically acclaimed independent film in which she displayed all of his acting abilities.
In 2022, her prominent roles in Scream (2022) and on X culminated in her being crowned one of the current horror queens, alongside one of her co-stars, Mia Goth. As a result of the announcement of her transformation into Wednesday Addams and the affirmation of Scream 6, she is currently one of the most in-demand actors.
In addition, she disclosed that she will serve as a producer for the impending second season, which was renewed in January. This time around, I feel extremely fortunate to be joining as a producer.
During the roundtable, Ortega discussed her initial reluctance to assume the role of Wednesday. The Scream actress was eager to transition into film, which had always been her “career objective.” However, she could not pass up the chance to portray the iconic role of Wednesday Addams.
“This was a character that was so legendary and so badass,” Ortega explained. “It’s also the most recognizable role I’ve ever played, and it was an opportunity to give Latino representation to a character who has never been portrayed in that light.”
In addition to returning for a second season of Wednesday and presumably for a seventh instalment of Scream, Ortega has four more films confirmed for the next few years, and these are likely only a few of the many projects that await her.

As the Obama administration continues to navigate the shoals of the nation’s financial crisis, other dangerous waters are approaching — growing pressure from open borders groups to legalize 11 million illegal immigrants.
So far, Team Obama is sailing around this one, instead of through it. President Barack Obama recently told a popular Mexican-American radio personality in Los Angeles that “comprehensive immigration reform” is going to be politically tough. He said, “It’s probably tougher now than it was, partly because of the fact that the economy has gotten worse.”
Story Continued Below
But we’re less than 100 days into a new administration, and the restless left seems ill-inclined to wait.
One congressman made a public show of calling on Obama to place a moratorium on worksite enforcement actions. And illegal-immigrant advocacy groups are calling on the president to place a moratorium on immigration enforcement.
In the 110th Congress, there was a focused effort by amnesty opponents to defeat a single massive amnesty bill. The American people made their views clear during the ensuing debate: They oppose amnesty. But illegal immigrant advocates still want it, and in the 111th Congress, the left’s impatience will bring new challenges for amnesty opponents.
The illegal-immigrant lobby knows that a comprehensive bill isn’t necessary to accomplish the goal of allowing millions of illegal immigrants to stay in the U.S. A thousand “small cuts” would go a long way.
For the open borders crowd, the first step is to ensure that illegal immigrants get jobs. That means allowing E-Verify, the federal government’s system that helps 100,000 businesses ensure the people they hire are U.S. citizens or legal immigrants, to expire. Or it could mean reauthorizing E-Verify only for short terms of a few months, making it difficult for businesses to make long-term management decisions. Illegal-immigrant advocates prefer to let illegal immigrants keep working, even at the expense of American workers.
The open borders crowd will rely on its most liberal friends in Congress to undertake some of the same efforts they began last year after comprehensive immigration reform failed. No one should be surprised to see the left trying to move piecemeal legislation along the lines of AgJOBS and the DREAM Act. Last year, those bills were designed to grant stealth amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants in specific categories: farm workers and those who claim to have come to the U.S. illegally as minors.

Marco Rubio is showing that he’s really not thought things through. At first he was in favor of repealing the healthcare reform law; in fact, he’s campaigned for the Florida Senate seat on the premise that he would do that if he was elected. Now he’s saying, well, I’d only repeal parts of it; there are some good things in it after all, like the pre-conditions ban or the coverage of children up to the age of 26.
Steve Benen outlines the flaws in this argument.
The first is that the Rubio line isn’t exactly coherent. If he plays a role in scrapping the entire law, that will get rid of the very provisions he now claims to support. Maybe he’d try to pass the “good” provisions in a new bill, but that would take a lot of time, and may ultimately fail. Ultimately, Rubio can’t have a full and partial repeal at the same time.
The second is more substantive, and it’s a lesson that Republicans simply refuse to even think about, no matter how many times it’s explained to them. If you’re prepared to ban discrimination on those with pre-existing conditions, then the policy must include an individual mandate. It’s not that complicated — if those with pre-existing conditions are to be protected, the mandate is necessary to keep costs from spiraling and to prevent the “free rider” problem.
Of course, if there’s an individual mandate, then it’s also necessary to include subsidies to those who otherwise couldn’t afford coverage. And once you put this string together — protections for those with pre-existing conditions … which requires a mandate … which requires subsidies — what you’re left with is the Affordable Care Act that right-wing politicians like Marco Rubio are so anxious to repeal in its entirety.
I think what’s really going on is that Mr. Rubio is finding out that the law is gaining in popularity among the voters and that campaigning on the idea of taking it away will go over like a lead pastelito.


On International Day of the Girl, Taara* speaks to UNICEF Aotearoa New Zealand about gutsy girls. Although she is now safe on New Zealand soil, Taara has asked to remain anonymous for the safety of her family that still resides in her homeland.
Kite-flying in Afghanistan was typically reserved for boys and men. But nobody could stop this gutsy girl. Taara was a feisty girl growing up in Kabul who danced with colourful paper kites on rooftops, and challenged friends to battles in the air. She climbed the highest branches of the weeping mulberry trees and played marbles with the boys. Truth be told – she was desperate to avoid housework.
“Girls in Afghanistan are expected to learn housework as soon as they can walk, but I hated it. Instead, I begged to purchase the groceries. I lugged 40-kilogram sacks of rice and flour to the wheelbarrow and raced them home along the potholed streets. I loved being outside, moulding the mud bricks for our home and laying them neatly in rows to bake in the sun. I could beat the boys at kite flying. I was strong.”
A girl walking to school in Afghanistan
Taara’s late father was well educated and taught her and her siblings English and Maths in the evenings, huddled around the bukhari (fireplace). She knew from an early age that she was expected to one day hold a masters degree; anything less would be unacceptable, because girls are capable of great things!
Even if her childhood was marred by conflict.
When she closes her eyes, Taara can still see the bombs vividly. She hears the helicopters and the explosions ripping through the night skies. She remembers sitting in her mother’s lap and pressing her small hands over her ears to drown out the sounds of war.
“One night, a rocket landed in my neighbour’s house. My teacher and her whole family were killed. We were lucky to escape.”
The children were taught not to touch anything in the streets as they walked to school; what looked like a rock, a pen or a toy could have been bombs. Afghanistan’s children were losing their childhoods, while New Zealand’s 1980’s children were listening to RTR Countdown and mesmerised by Spielberg’s ET.
New Zealand’s population had just topped 3.2 million when her father came to Auckland for a conference in 1984 and then sought political asylum.
“In New Zealand, my dad's first job was working in a factory,” Taara says with sadness. “My dad was a highly educated man, and he was working around the clock to support our family. He gave up his career and his homeland so that his children could have a better opportunity at life.”
Back in Afghanistan, Taara and her family had to wait for the right time to leave. “In the middle of the night, mum woke us up and told us we were leaving. We had to wear baggy, unattractive clothes so we couldn’t be recognised. I grabbed a small bag, put it in the truck and followed on foot for two nights and three days.”
“Mum was so courageous. She was still in a lot of pain from recently giving birth but protected us all. I remember holding my little siblings’ hands and running when the Russian planes swooped overhead, diving to hide between rocks. Occasionally we saw bombs explode in front of us.”
The family finally reached a safe area in Pakistan where they were reunited with their father and stayed for a few weeks while their paperwork and visas for New Zealand were arranged. They had less than $100 in their pockets.
“We were one of the first refugees to arrive in New Zealand from Afghanistan in 1985. When we landed, the airport was bustling with journalists asking questions like: ‘Are you happy to leave Afghanistan?’ and I just nodded. ‘New Zealand was my new home.”
Taara says her father desperately wanted her to be a doctor, but she couldn't stand the sight of blood, maybe because she had seen so much of it as a child. All the siblings went on to achieve multiple degrees and they were proud of this achievement until a few years ago when their bathroom leaked.
“We couldn’t find a plumber and my dad smiled and jokingly said, “I made a mistake. We’ve got a Nurse, a Pharmacist, an Accountant, a Computer Programmer, an IT Specialist and two Engineers in the family, but no one can fix a pipe!”
Education is, after all, not about the piece of paper you hold, but the opportunity it provides for children and young people to realise their potential.
At Mawlana Hatefi school for girls, only grades 1 to 6 have returned to learning. With high demand and shortages in funding a number of classes are held in tents for lack of space.
Taara has deep concern for her family left behind in Afghanistan. One cousin was studying journalism and another hairdressing, but now their lives are on hold.
Even before the most recent humanitarian crisis, UNICEF says 4.2 million children were not enrolled in school in Afghanistan. Around 60 percent of them are girls.
“My cousins have studied so hard and they are determined not to give up on their dreams. The economy is worsening, and families are struggling to make ends meet.”
According to a statement by UNICEF and WHO released on 5 October, half of Afghanistan’s children under five are expected to suffer from acute malnutrition.
“Children are getting sicker and their families are less able to get them the treatment they need. Rapidly spreading outbreaks of measles and acute watery diarrhea will only exacerbate the situation,” says Hervé Ludovic De Lys, UNICEF Representative in Afghanistan.
This tape measure shows that the young child is malnourished. Fortunately she received treatment in a UNICEF-supported hospital in Kabul
The first aircraft carrying UNICEF lifesaving medical supplies arrived in Kabul through the European Civil Protection and Humanitarian Aid Operations (ECHO) Airbridge in late September and in the past eight weeks, ready-to-use therapeutic food for more than 42,000 children and therapeutic milk for 5,200 children has been delivered to UNICEF partners.
It used to be only the poorest and uneducated who were pushing produce in wheelbarrows in Afghanistan for a living, but now it’s the most qualified who don’t have any savings – teachers, doctors, and engineers are struggling to feed their children. Some have lost their jobs and left their homes out of fear.
When asked if she still has hope for the future of Afghanistan, Taara’s thoughts immediately turn to the gutsy female journalists who have continued to share stories on air despite being harassed.
“The female journalists are absolutely amazing. I love the way they question the system. They ask the right questions and never give up. I admire those women so much, and I admire all the girls who are unwilling to concede defeat.”
On International Day of the Girl, Taara salutes the gutsy young girls and women standing up for change.
“Girls work hard, both inside the house and outside the house. Some are pushing wheelbarrows and racing with paper kites while others are lost in Harry Potter. Every single one should have an opportunity to succeed.”
Over the past two decades, the number of children in school has increased from 1 million to 9.5 million. UNICEF is continuing to advocate with all actors so that all girls and boys have an equal chance to learn and develop the skills they need to thrive and build a peaceful and productive Afghanistan.

domain: history


In the world of web hosting and server management, Nginx has emerged as a powerful and efficient web server and reverse proxy. One of its standout features is the ability to manage multiple websites or applications on a single server through the use of server blocks (also known as virtual hosts). Nginx server blocks enable you to host different websites with distinct domain names on the same server while customizing their settings independently. This tutorial delves into the art of tailoring Nginx server blocks to finely tune host-specific configurations for each of your websites.
Understanding Server Blocks
Defining Server Blocks (Virtual Hosts)
Server blocks are akin to isolated compartments within your Nginx configuration, where you can define individual settings for different websites. Each server block encapsulates the configuration for a specific domain or application, allowing you to handle multiple sites on a single server effortlessly.
Server Block Prioritization
Nginx employs a specific order when processing incoming requests. Understanding how Nginx prioritizes server blocks is crucial to avoid conflicts and ensure the correct block handles each request. We’ll explore the prioritization mechanism and how to leverage it effectively.
Creating and Configuring Server Blocks
Setting Up Server Blocks
We’ll start by creating separate directories for each of our websites within the Nginx configuration structure. This organizational approach keeps configurations neat and manageable. We’ll guide you through the process of generating the necessary files and directories.
For each server block, a set of fundamental configurations must be defined. This includes specifying the
server_name to match the domain, setting up
root to define the website’s root directory, and managing access logs. We’ll provide comprehensive examples and explanations for each of these configurations.
Customizing Host-Specific Settings
Managing Server Resources
Tailoring server resources such as CPU limits, memory usage, and bandwidth allocation is vital for maintaining optimal performance for each website. We’ll demonstrate how to set resource limits on a per-server-block basis, preventing one site from consuming excessive resources.
Securing websites with SSL/TLS certificates is a standard practice. However, the certificate requirements and encryption protocols may vary between sites. We’ll explore how to configure SSL/TLS certificates for each server block individually, ensuring secure connections tailored to the specific needs of each site.
Handling URL Redirection
URL redirection is often required to ensure consistent user experiences. Different websites might need unique redirection rules. We’ll guide you through creating tailored redirections using Nginx’s rewrite rules within individual server blocks.
Troubleshooting and Tips
Verifying Configuration Syntax
A misplaced comma or a typo can lead to Nginx configuration errors. We’ll cover how to verify the syntax of your configuration files before applying changes, saving you from unnecessary downtime.
Checking Logs for Each Server Block
When issues arise, pinpointing the problem becomes easier if you have dedicated logs for each server block. We’ll explain how to configure Nginx to generate separate log files, aiding in efficient troubleshooting.
In the world of web hosting, customization and optimization are paramount. Nginx server blocks empower administrators to tailor settings for each website individually, enhancing performance, security, and manageability. With this comprehensive guide, you’re now equipped to master the art of tailoring Nginx server blocks to suit your hosting needs perfectly.

Parody accounts already alive on Twitter as pay-day lender coughs up millions in compensation.
Boardroom executives at Newcastle United FC will be having third or fourth thoughts today about their controversial decision to cut a sponsorship deal in 2012 with Wonga, after the pay-day lender was slapped yesterday with a monster fine for chasing loans through fake law firms.
But regardless of how the drama plays out at St James’ Park and other commercial fall-out from the Financial Conduct Authority’s £2.6 million penalty, what about those law firms names? How did the bright sparks at Wonga come up with Chainey D’Amato & Shannon and Barker and Lowe Legal Recoveries?
The first seems to be designed to set real fear into the hearts of those poor Wonga customers who failed to keep pace with the lender’s 5,800% annual interest rate.
Chainey — while spelt differently — elicits subtle images of former hard man US vice president Dick Cheney, who back in 2006 accidently shot a fellow hunter while prowling for quail in Texas.
D’Amato, while bringing to mind the general ambiance of Sicilian characters who have very specific debt-collection techniques, was also the surname of Costantino “Cus”, the renowned American boxing trainer, who brought Floyd Paterson and Mike Tyson to the professional ring.
And Shannon — well, that’s the name of an international airport in the west of Ireland.
Meanwhile, Barker and Lowe has something of the posh bootmakers about it. Perhaps Wonga reserved collection letters from it for those of its punters considered to be in the more middle class bracket.
Already parody Twitter accounts have emerged, with Chainey D’Amato & Shannon telling potential clients “We fight to get what’s owed you”.
While Barker and Lowe’s location is enigmatically listed as “nowhere”.
It is certainly just a matter of time before these accounts begin to promote stunning PEP figures and news of stellar partnership promotions.

Domelevo locked out of office
The Auditor-General, Mr Daniel Yao Domelevo yesterday returned to work after spending his 167 days mandatory leave only to find his offices locked up.
Independent checks by the Spot On News revealed that even though he arrived at the premises of the department at about 8 O’clock, his office was still under lock.
Mr Domelovo had been in a tussle with the Audit Service Board for the past two years, however, the situation escalated with the board wrote to inform the President who is the appointing authority that he had reached the retirement age.
The board is alleged to have made some findings in connection with the date of birth of Mr Domelovo on his Social Security and National Insurance Trust (SSNIT) records.
According to the board, the records discovered at SSNIT had the date of birth of the Auditor-General changed from June 1, 1960 as submitted in 1978 to June1, 1961in 1993.
Following the discovery of the anomalies the board subsequently wrote to Mr Domelovo for explanation on the anomalies detected on his document.
A letter signed by the Board Chairman of the service, Mr Edward Dua Agyemang and addressed to Mr Domelovo said “Records made available to the board indicate that your date of retirement was 1st June 2020 and as far as the Audit Service is concerned you are deemed to retired.
It further stated that “By a copy of this letter, the board is informing the President who is your appointing authority to take necessary action.”
In a response to the letter, Mr Domelovo stated that his actual date of birth was June 1, 1961 and not June 1, 1961 and that the former date was an anomaly which was occasioned as a result of the circumstances beyond his control.
The Auditor-General contended that his late father, Augustine Domelevo, migrated from Togo to the then Gold Coast and stayed in several towns and villages before finally settling in Kwahu Adeemmra.
He explained that either his father wrongfully mentioned Agbatofe in Togo as his hometown to him or he misconstrued it at the time adding that “my mother is also Ghanaian.”
In relation to his date of birth, Mr Domelovo explained that “I noticed the mistake when I checked my information in the baptismal register of the Catholic Church in Adeemmra. The register has “Yaw” as part of my name and also provides my date of birth as 1st June 1961.
Meanwhile, the President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo was yet to respond to a letter notifying him about the retirement status of the Auditor-General.

Airborne Early Warning
Airborne Early Warning [AEW] is the detection of enemy air or surface units by radar or other equipment carried in an airborne vehicle, and the transmitting of a warning to friendly units. Airborne early warning and control [AEW & C] is air surveillance and control provided by airborne early warning aircraft which are equipped with search and height-finding radar and communications equipment for controlling weapon systems.
The U.S. Navy, in 1944, under the threat of Kamikaze attack, ordered the development of a radar system that could be carried aloft in an aircraft. Which would expand the radar horizon under which the Fleet was to operate during a series of campaigns through the Philippines and northwards to Japan. Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) was tasked with developing a workable system in February 1944 under Project Cadillac and a prototype system was built and flown in August on a modified TBM Avenger torpedo bomber. With tests proving successful, the system being able to detect low flying formations at a range in excess of 100 miles, the US Navy ordered production of the TBM-3W, the first AEW aircraft to enter service. TBM-3Ws fitted with the AN/APS-20 radar entered service in March 1945, with some 36-40 eventually being constructed.
The Avenger was purely an AEW radar aircraft, as the aircraft had a crew of only a single pilot and one radar operator. All control functions were conducted on surface ships, with radar data transmitted via a data link which gave the video image and radar antenna angle to enable a tactical picture to be developed in the Combat Information Center (CIC). Following the success of Project Cadillac, Project Cadillac II was commenced in 1944, with the aim of producing a flying command center. This lead to the development of the PB-1W, a modified B-17, using the same AN/APS-20 radar as the TBM-3W, but with several operators on board who could steer defending fighters towards targets via radio. The PB-1W was specifically designed to counter the Kamikaze threat, operating from land bases in support of the Fleet at sea.
The AN/APS-20 radar as fitted to the TBM-3W and PB-1W became the mainstay of AEW aircraft developments following World War Two. While not designed specifically as an AEW aircraft, the Grumman AF-2W Guardian, when fitted with the AN/APS-20 now had a secondary capability.
Experience with the Guardian led to the development of an AEW variant of the Douglas Skyraider piston engined attack aircraft. Once again the radar chosen was the AN/APS-20, with a large belly radome being fitted and a crew of three (one pilot and two operators) being carried. The Skyraider was eventually built in three versions, the AD-3W, AD-4W and AD-5W (which was later redesignated the EA-1E). As well as the U.S. Navy, the AD-4W was also supplied to the Royal Navy. With some 50 units being taken on charge as a cheap alternative to developing an AEW capability in Britain.
While these aircraft all suffered from technical limitations, experience gained by both the U.S. Navy and Royal Navy led directly to the development of more advanced and specialized AEW aircraft including the Lockheed Warning Star and Fairey Gannet AEW.
The Lockheed Warning Star began development as the US Navy PO-1W, an early model Constellation Airliner modified to carry experimental electronic surveillance equipment. After the PO-1W proved the concept of airborne early warning in large NATO exercises, the U.S. Navy and Air Force ordered large numbers of a developed variant based on the Lockheed Model 1049 Super Constellation. These aircraft entered service as the WV-2, 244 ordered, and the EC-121, 82 ordered of which 72 were from U.S. Navy orders.
The Warning Star entered service in 1955, with the final variants being retired from the U.S. Air Force Reserve in 1978. The Warning Star pioneered the concept of Airborne Early Warning and Control. With units being used for fleet coverage, airborne extension of the Distant Early Warning (DEW) Line, and in support of the Apollo Space Program.
USAF EC-121s were deployed to Vietnam in 1965 to provide early warning and communication relays. A USAF EC-121 made history in October 1967, when, while operating over the Tonkin Gulf off North Vietnam, it guided a U.S. Fighter to the successful interception of a VNAF Mig 21, the first time an airborne controller had directed a successful attack, setting the stage for many future developments in the area of AEW.
Throughout its life the Lockheed Warning Star was used to trial experimental radar and electronic equipment installations, including a radome installation on the WX-2E, later redesignated the EC-121L. After evaluation by the U.S. Navy the EC-121L was used as a prototype for evaluation of systems later installed on the E-3 Sentry.
Continuing a long tradition of AEW Aircraft development by Grumman, ranging from the Avenger and Guardian to the Hawkeye. The continuous improvements in early airborne radars by 1956 led to the concept of an airborne early warning and command and control aircraft. The first aircraft to perform this mission was the Grumman E-1 Tracer (a variant of the S-2 Tracker anti-submarine aircraft), which saw service from 1954 to 1964. The WF-2 Tracer was designed to replace the aging Guardians and Skyraiders providing AEW coverage for U.S. Navy aircraft carriers. The Tracer was developed from the S-2 Tracker anti-submarine warfare aircraft and first flew on March 1, 1957. The fitting of a large radome to the Tracer entailed significant modification from the standard ASW Tracker including the removal of the large single tail fin and replacing it with two end-plate fins on the tailplane.
The radar fitted to the Tracer was the new AN/APS-82 manufactured by Hazeltine, original builders of the AN/APS-20 which was the first AEW radar ever used. The AN/APS-82 introduced many technological advances including stabilized antenna and Airborne Moving Target Indicator (AMTI) which allowed the radar to detect low flying targets against the clutter of radar reflections from the surface of the ocean. 88 WF-2 and E-1B Tracers were built by Grumman for the U.S. Navy with operations extending from 1958 to 1977 when the E-2 Hawkeye completely replaced the aircraft in service.
The E-1's successor, the E-2 Hawkeye, was the first carrier-based aircraft designed from the outset for the all-weather airborne early warning and command and control function. Since replacing the E-1 in 1964, the Hawkeye has been the "eyes of the fleet." The Northrop Grumman E-2 Hawkeye is arguably the most widely used AEW&C aircraft in the world being in service with the United States Navy, and the air forces of Japan, Taiwan, Israel, Egypt, and Singapore. The French Navy are to be future users of the E-2 aboard the new aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle. Developed as a replacement for the Grumman E-1 Tracer, the E-2 first flew in 1961 with the A model first seeing operational service off Vietnam in 1965. The current generation C model entered U.S. Navy service in 1973 and has been continuously developed since then. The latest version of the E-2C being designated Group II, with the Group II+ being developed for deployment in the near future.
The E-3 Sentry aircraft is a modified Boeing 707/320 commercial airframe with a rotating radar dome. Inside the dome is a radar subsystem that permits surveillance from the earth's surface up into the stratosphere, over land or water. The E-3 was originally conceived to overcome the line of sight limitations of ground based radar systems. At the time of its development AWACS was the first program to test the feasibility of a revolutionary new Air Force contract philosophy "fly before buy." Under this concept the prime contractor (Boeing) would have to provide a viable end product, flown, tested and thoroughly analyzed before the initial delivery would take place.
The primary mission of the AWACS prior to the end of the Cold War was as an airborne early warning radar, alerting North American Aerospace Defense Command to the approach of Soviet Union bombers if they flew toward the United States or Canada. AWACS has been involved in every major operation over the last 25 years. It is simply an asset America counts on every time for surveillance, weapons control, and battle management.
US policy requires the radar and mission systems for E-3 and E-767 AWACS, E-2C, and C-130J using the E-2C mission system be sold via FMS. The purpose of this policy is to ensure interoperability, compatibility, supportability, releasability, fleetwide commonality for future upgrades, and compliance with technology transfer policy issues. However, commercial AEW&C systems are being offered to U.S. allies for military use through direct commercial sales under export licenses with little Department of Defense (DoD) insight into the final technology being transferred and no assurance that the delivered systems will be interoperable/compatible with DoD systems in coalition operations. It is in the best interest of the Government to have more DoD involvement in direct commercial sales that include AEW&C systems.

This idea actually started with all the talk in the threads about quilts not being the right size, and this and that and jokes about the quilt police coming to get the offenders. Well.......quilt police? Hey, right up my alley!!! I'll show you quilt police! But, before that, I'll show you other peeks of the aspects of my latest 18 x 16 inch creation.
And the whole thing.....which started from a tiny drawing on a 6 x 9 inch sheet of paper.
Who knows what'll be next? I do have a list, but that can always be changed!! Enjoy! And smile! Wouldn't it be cool if life was really this fun?

Everyone needs a strong holiday salad cover in their recipes – which your family and friends are asking you to bring to Thanksgiving or a Christmas dinner. For me, this is it. An old-fashioned salad of pears, gorgonzola, radicchio, pomegranate, candied nuts, and red onions, which are also the most colorful and I have always called it “Pre-Chopped Food Salad.” (She’s never heard of such a celebration before, amiright?)
The holiday party tends to rely on large, bold spices: short decorated ribs, rosemary bacon, lean pasta… so I love a salad that can keep itself against other well-known dishes. A strong, super-fashioned past is the answer, and it gets bonuses for its ability to carry, fully clothed, for hours on end. Instead, it is best to have time to sprinkle all the ingredients, which means you can prepare this salad in advance, put it in the fridge, and forget about it. So, let’s talk about the ingredients for this salad and the changes that make it so special and how you can do it for your upcoming holiday meetings.
What kind of old model should I use?
In the case of the former, you have a choice. Classic curly past, Lacinato (or Tuscan or dinosaur) past, Red Russian, or other types of heritage are all delicious, but this salad, I like to mix 50/50 of curly paste with Lacinato past. I love the variety of green and the variety that this mix offers, plus when you throw radicchio ribbons, it is a vegetable dance party.
How can I already make a good impression?
Well folks, I’ve said it before and I say it: if you don’t already brush it, it’s time. But before you can do that, you need to peel the stalks off the stalks, stack the leaves and cut them into ribbons, then place them in a bowl and add some of the extra virgin olive oil. Use both hands to massage vigorously for one minute until it has shrunk to a fine, green silk. Now you are ready for all the beautiful decorations.
Garnish for a delicious salad
For this salad, display is essential. While I love using simple ingredients throughout the year, the holidays are a time to put extra care into how you style and bring them together. This dish is really fun for energy, and is a simple way to bring in a Christmas-y color palette (no red and green sprinkles needed!) Here are some additional ingredients that make this salad stand out:
- Massaged kale. See above.
- Radish. Yes it is bitter, but when combined with the weight (like the oil in this dress and the sweet gorgonzola) radicchio is very appealing.
- Peyala. I love old cut salads and pears all year round, but this combo is very comforting in the winter months. Now is the time to try any of the beautiful pearls that are in season. Just make sure it is ripe but firm enough to stand up when you cut it.
- Gorgonzola. Any blue cheese will work well here, but in this way, I like to buy crackers that will fit when you give this salad. There is nothing like the high quality of blue cheese and pears at Christmas time.
- Makangaza. Sure, I use them here mainly because of their amazing red color, but they also give this salad a delicious taste and a delicious “bite”. You can buy wholesale pomegranates and use this method for seed removal or feel free to take a lazy method (like me) and buy pomegranates that were already planted when the work was done for you.
- Red Onions. They have a beautiful fist and the most beautiful types of gemstones. I like to use my mandoline to make the layers very thin, with bonus points soaked in cold water for 30 minutes to reduce flavor.
- Candied Nuts. Have fun, because at last I am sharing a recipe for candied nuts that I have loved for many years. It’s time! Just form two groups, because you will need more food.
I like mustard-shallot vinaigrette
Just as you would want an old-fashioned salad dressing in your repertoire, you also need a strong mustard vinaigrette that you can keep in the fridge for all your salad needs. This is what I always turn to. I have changed and changed several times over the years, but the ingredients are the same: dijon mustard, garlic, vinegar, onion or shallot, honey, and olive oil. They are sweet, acidic, sweet, and when combined together, they lightly coat any old leaf as a salad.
The precious salad of the holiday is beautiful, healthy, and satisfying — and we have never talked about the health benefits that a good beauty brings to the table, but we will save it one day. In the meantime, check out the recipes, and post us on Instagram @camillestyles if you try this salad!

Location and mamma
Everything great. Location is excelent and staff does everything for your 100% satisfaction. Booked everything for us at discount prices.
The service of this hotel is second to none. Staff, especially Jacob was great, they took care of everything and really made a difference!!! Thanks for everything guys!!!
Excellent and friendly service from front desk and all staff. A very clean beautiful hotel. Breakfast was amazing with a large variety to choose from. Hotel situated in the centre of Goreme. Highly recommended
Friendly and professional staff. Prompt with responses with arrangements for airport transportation, tours, and other questions. Facilities were clean, great breakfast buffet spread.
location is grate hotel build in best part of the town shops ,restaurants and sunset viewing location are walking distance nice terrace and ottoman garden very relaxing perfect place to have tea or vine very rich breakfast clean rooms very friendly staff.
New hotel, very friendly staff
The hotel is very well located (3 mins walk from city center) and the accomodations are EXCELLENT. It's looks and feel very luxury and the staff is very friendly always there to give you tips and organize you tours. Breakfast is great and included in the price.
Everything, especially the attitude if all staff we met - who gave a cheery and genuine smile, and made us feel like part of a family hotel. Particular staff we'd like to commend are Ali, Onur, Gusum, Behan and Samit. Nothing seemed too difficult for them.
I was deeply moved by the staff's kindness. They are very helpful and friendly. I arrived there by night bus so I was very tired. By the way they help us eat breakfast and check in early. The beautiful room is very clean and comfortable. Breakfast is also good. The hotel is very close to goreme bus terminal and goreme open air museum. Recommend this hotel!
Our stay at the Goreme Inn was very pleasant and relaxing. I must say Ali and Onur at the front desk were very nice and helpful. Both did their best to attend our needs and questions. From arranging our pick up at the airport, balloon fight, tours, up until we left Cappadocia. Zam was nice and an excellent tour guide that arranged the best tailor made itineraries for us. Thanks for everything!!!
I would recommend a little more variety in breakfast for more international tastes. (Like Fried or scrambled eggs with sausage or beacon) Besides this, the rest of the breakfast was very good.
Location Friendly staff Size of the room Good wifi Clean facilities
Cave hotels in Goreme are quite expensive for what you get, comparatively speaking to the other options. The Goreme Inn is a great hotel, and did a great job of arranging airport transfers from Kayseri and managing our balloon ride, day excurions, etc. Staff was very pleasant and accomodating!
Hotel Rooms Staff Customer focus
Staff is very cooperative.
Needs to improve wifi connectivity.
eagerness of staff to make sure we had everything we wnated
not spending more time there
They are very kind. The room, bathroom, breakfast are very good. All of the thing in this hotel are satisfying
This not only 'looked' fantastic from the reviews - it was fantastic. Why? From the minute we walked in the door to the minute we walked out, we were cared for very thoughtfully, their tour guide enabled us to see and appreciate the wonders of Cappadocia in the 3 days we had there, and the place itself is an art piece. Onur, Yakup, and the rest of the crew were marvellous. Want a break from Istanbul or anywhere else in the world....you can't do better than land here.....
good room, good location, nice stuff
Hotel was nice and clean Good breakfast It is worth £160 for 2 nights
Staff made me spend time listening to his tour recommendations. As I got few tour recommendation emails from the staff, I did not want to listen to the same thing. There was a big spider and an unknown insect in my room.
“My first choice whenever we visit next !!” Right from the time of planning and making the relevant bookings for our tour we had felt very comfortable about Cappadocia , because Onur had assured us that he would take care of us. Our balloon tour , our day trips ...be it the green or the red tour ...we just left everything to him ....and he did not disappoint. It was not one of your typical cave hotels but the decor was brilliant and really pleasant. The housekeeping staff was proficient and room sevice commendable. Our tour guide Yakub was an intelligent guy who seemed to know Cappadocia well and was very passionate about its history.Now we seem to know the place as if we were born there. Thank you team Goreme inn..your warm hospitality, the lovely breakfast layout and the early morning muezzins' call... all will be remembered with a smile whenever we think of this holiday . Room Tip: we had a suite called the Rosemoon and a room Vadi...they were great
Beautiful room and facilites. Kudos to Onür and Ali at front desk; Sam, the guide who was so helpful; and Beyhan, the woman who helped during breakfast and brought me a fruit plate on my last day. Met the owner my last day and glad to find out he has a good sense of humor. Easy access to the main street of Göreme with its markets, restaurants, as well as Sunset Park.
Sometimes front desk was unmanned and person who checked me in wasn't that welcoming.
Beautiful room and wonderful Bathtub. The quality of the sheets and towels were very good. Staff was helpful and friendly, and we became really fond of the breakfast staff. The staff does try to steer you towards using tour guides which we did not find necessary except for the underground cities. We explored the many canyons on our own and never got lost. We would stay there again. Breakfasts were very good.
Only criticism was our bathroom floor was extremely slippery when any water was on it- like when you get out of the tub or shower.
The room was clean and new.
We were there very early in the morning before check-in time so we were required to wait. The staff said we can check in earlier than original check in time so we hang around the city couple of hours and came back to check in but the room was not ready. We finally could check out after having lunch and an ATV tour.
Great location. Friendly, helpful staff. Delightful breakfast area and good food. Loved our room with a terrace.

Thirteen-year-old Matt Bainter is a crack centerfielder and the middle child in a large family. This baseball season, he has more at stake than ever before. If he does everything right, he bargains, his older brother Tom will survive bone cancer. While Tom undergoes treatment, Matt has to cope with the sacrifices that come with living in a new town and playing on a different—and far inferior—baseball team. He can’t admit to himself that Tom might die, and he can’t face his own rage about having his life uprooted, especially when he falls into a serious batting slump. With the help of his tough coach, Matt eventually owns up to his feelings, and by the end of the story both he and Tom are holding at third, on their way to home plate. Terrific baseball action, humor, and a gang of thoroughly original characters make this a novel as unforgettable as it is unsentimental.

Hepa Bag – Pkg of 3
Five layer, 7 gallon HEPA style replacement bag for current VacuMaid models SR52, SR52H, SR760, SR800, all VacuMaid Garage Vacs and Valet ATQ300. This paper bag filter is an alternate bag for the AstroVac models: SR36C, SR36, SR50, SR52. Replacement for the following models: H-1P, P70, SR36, SR38, P80, H2, P73, P75, MK-IP, MK-XXIIIBP. Replace at no more than ½ full or when lack of suction is noticed. Can also be used in DC500 and DC800 dirt canister. When flat, bag measures 27″ x 12″.
5 layer HEPA Bag for disposable bag units.
The bags are made from PP (Polypropylene) plastic (some layers are woven, others are spun-bond).
Weight g/m2 100
Air permeability l/m2.s 430
Optimum fine particle filtration
Filtration efficiency 92.4% EN1822-3 (Most Penetrating Particle Size, MPPS: Typically between 0.05 and 0.3
Dust retention of 99.98% efficiency
Note: HPB1 bag may also be used in place of the HPB2H.
Remove the lid by lifting straight up.
Remove the bag by sliding the rubber gasket that surrounds the hole in the disposable bag off the plastic inlet stem that protrudes through the side of the canister (figure 2d).
Once the bag is off of the inlet stem, seal the bag by removing the backing from the tab and cover the hole with the flap. Press the flap so that it securely seals over the hole (figure 3d).
This will help prevent dirt and dust from escaping.
Now, lift the bag from the dirt canister and place in a suitable trash container.
Take a new bag and extend it fully (figure 4d),
place it in the canister, and slide the rubber gasket onto the inlet stem until the rubber gasket drops into place in the ridge that is around the inlet stem (figure 5d).
Carefully replace the lid onto the dirt canister to ensure that it seals properly or it could cause a vacuum leak and reduce the cleaning efficiency of your system.
NOTE: This step is only required in the event that the bag breaks. If bag breakage does occur, it is necessary to lift the plate located under the bag and clean the small screen.
The filter bag should be changed or cleaned when there is 3-6 inches of dirt or anytime there is a noticeable reduction of air flow at the cleaning tool. Initially, the dirt canister should be checked or emptied weekly until some idea can be obtained as to how long it takes to half fill the canister under your normal cleaning routine. All vacuum systems will function more effectively if it is emptied frequently. Under no circumstances should you allow your dirt canister to become more than 3/4 full before emptying. (Note: The canister will fill more rapidly if NEW carpets are being cleaned for there is usually a tremendous quantity of loose fibers that are retained in the carpet from the manufacturing process. In some instances it may take several months before all of these loose fibers are removed.)

- This paper has investigated the sampling frequency error impact on the signal processing in a software-correlator based GPS receiver as well as the periodic averaging technique in a pre-correlation GPS signal quality monitor. The refined signal model of receiver processing in the presence of clock error is established as the foundation of the performance analyses. A software-based method is developed to accurately calibrate both the digital IF and the sampling frequency simultaneously. The method requires no additional hardware other than the GPS receiver RF front end output samples. It enables inline calibration of the receiver measurements instead of complicated post-processing. The performance of the technique is evaluated using simulated signals as well as live GPS signals collected by several GPS data acquisition equipments, including clear time domain waveforms/eye patterns, amplitude probability density histograms, Power Spectrum Density (PSD) envelopes, and correlation-related characteristics. The results show that we can calibrate the sampling frequency with an accuracy resolution of 10^−9 of the true sampling frequency online, and the pre-correlation SNR can be potentially improved by 39dB using periodic averaging.

Departing Maine – we took a pretty leisurely pace getting packed up and heading out in the morning. Stopped at the visitor center and a few other places along the way as we headed back toward the Thousand Islands area of Canada.
We had chance, though getting close enough (there was much uncertainty about how far the road was passable) and possible rain were concerns, to hike the second highest peak in Maine – Sugarloaf Mountain, but we bypassed that on our way out of the state.
We had paddled the US side of the Thousand Islands area on the way out to Maine, so on the return we chose to stay on the Canadian side. We stayed outside the little town of Gananoque and drove into town in the morning. We stopped at the visitor center and at a nice little coffee shop (The Socialist Pig) prior to heading down to the harbor for some paddling. Finding a launch site and parking was a little bit annoying due to some construction and one way roads (I think we drove around the block three times), but we got on the water a bit before noon. Continue reading
Saturday was supposed to be our third kayaking day and we headed off toward Somes Sound in the morning.
The automotive gods had a different idea. I had replaced all the Subaru brakes just before the trip and they were still wearing in just a bit, but we started to hear some scraping from the right side of the car. A mile or so later, things started to feel a bit rough and I pulled over to the side of the road. It had seemed that the sound was coming from the front so I checked there first and everything seemed fine. The rear wheel, however, was a different story. Two of the lug nuts had blown off, shearing the studs with them and the other three were loose. We caught them just in time – I’m still not sure how we managed to get 1500 miles through Canada before having issues. I tightened the remaining three and we made our way to the nearest auto store (a NAPA about 8 miles away) for some emergency repairs in their parking lot. Fortunately, I had a small set of tools with us and NAPA had the necessary parts to complete a fix: three studs, three lug nuts and one hacksaw (because I goofed seating one of the studs). A few hours later we were back in business, but plans for the day were slightly delayed.
Having scoped out Bar Harbor (8) before, we had an idea of where to park and where to get on the water. We drove down in the morning a bit before high tide and put the kayaks in the water. We had looked up some of the kayak tour routes earlier and somewhat followed one of the paths around Bar Island and near two Porcupine islands. The most common attraction on this paddle was the abundance of buoys connected to lobster traps.
The surprise sighting of the day was a pod of harbor porpoises. We knew they were something to keep any eye out for, but didn’t really expect to have any sightings. We were just over half way to Burnt Porcupine Island having slowed a bit to give a lobster boat some room when a pod of harbor porpoises started surfacing near us. Over the next 10-20 minutes we probably saw and heard a few dozen porpoises surfacing around us. They were mostly pretty quick just coming up to breathe and submerging again, but they did seem to be curious about us and cruising around the area. Janet was able to capture one on video (it’s small, roughly mid screen, right at the end) over her shoulder and got a few pictures, I didn’t have the waterproof camera and was less willing to take chances with my phone on the water. Continue reading
With a little planning the night before, we decided to go to the Pretty Marsh area of the island and paddle up the West side. I think we combined two different versions of directions and ended up targeting a launch somewhat North of the marsh itself (10). This lead to some confusion early on as we didn’t seem to be ‘leaving’ the harbor where we expected to start, but instead were just heading up the cost. Fortunately, this wasn’t a navigation test – we were just going to paddle up the coast a bit and then return. Also, there may have been some help from a phone GPS in determining what we were actually doing. Continue reading
Second to last of the year (though I noticed that I did miss a few days). One that I tagged quite a while back but never posted, from a kayaking adventure to Lime Island four or so years ago.

Last lighthouse for a bit… maybe. The light(house) in the middle of the Manitou Passage about three miles off the mainland and off the shore of North Manitou Island. As you can sort of see, it’s a residence for birds now and thanks to that it stinks pretty horribly and is worth going on the windward side of when passing – if you look at the GPS tracklog you can see the space between the coming and going paths in the middle of the passage where we did just that.

This picture is so-so, but it fits the lighthouse theme… the Round Island Lighthouse opposite Mackinac Island across the channel there. I’ve successfully watched fireworks from this lighthouse, which I highly recommend.

The South Manitou Lighthouse from the water upon arrival after one of our early and poorly coordinated (read: stupid) crossings. We actually saved most of the stupid for the return trip which had worse conditions and way more distance between the three of us such that we were effectively all out there alone with no support.
