1. About Kubuntu
Thank you for your interest in Kubuntu 6.10 – the Edgy Eft release.

Kubuntu is an entirely open source operating system built around the Linux kernel.
The Kubuntu community is built around the ideals enshrined in the Ubuntu Philosophy [http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/philosophy]: that software should be available free of charge, that software tools should be usable by people in their local language and despite any disabilities, and that people should have the freedom to customize and alter their software in whatever way they see fit. For those reasons:

• Kubuntu will always be free of charge, and there is no extra fee for the “enterprise edition,” we make our very best work available to everyone on the same Free terms.

No. 1 – Vegetables
This one’s pretty easy. It’s pretty much impossible to eat too many vegetables. Keep in mind that veggies aren’t just for dinner. Making them a part of your lunch and as snacks is one way to eat more. Pile that sandwich high with cucumbers, peppers, lettuce, tomatoes, onions. Anything that you like. Things that you don’t think you like you might if you give them a second chance.

Make plans to have an extra helping for dinner. It won’t add many calories and helps fill you up.

I often have patients say “I don’t like vegetables, doc.” When I ask them if there are any that they do like I always get a good response. The reply is, “Sure, I love spinach.” As I ask about more vegetables I get more positive responses. Make a list for yourself of the veggies that you like and keep them on hand. It will be longer than you think.

Board Building

The subject of board building is near and dear to this author’s heart. In the late 1960s, I started designing boards and surfing for a shop in Huntington Beach called Soul Surfboards. At that time, Dale Velzy was their shaper, and I got to spend many hours in the shaping stall with Dale going over board designing, watching and eventually learning how to shape.

When Dale retired from shaping around 1971 and went to Roger’s Foam to sell blanks, he gave me his shaping stand, templates, planer, lights, and other equipment so I could shape on my own. I subsequently was one of the shapers at my shop, Wave Trek Surfboards for several years, and still have and sometimes use this equipment today.

Building Web Services with JAX-WS

JAX-WS stands for Java API for XML Web Services. JAX-WS is a technology for building web services and clients that communicate using XML. JAX-WS allows developers to write message-oriented as well as RPC-oriented web services. In JAX-WS, a remote procedure call is represented by an XML-based protocol such as SOAP. The SOAP specification defines the envelope structure, encoding rules, and conventions for representing remote procedure calls and responses. These calls and responses are transmitted as SOAP messages (XML files) over HTTP.

Although SOAP messages are complex, the JAX-WS API hides this complexity from the application developer. On the server side, the developer specifies the remote procedures by defining methods in an interface written in the Java programming language. The developer also codes one or more classes that implement those methods. Client programs are also easy to code. A client creates a proxy (a local object representing the service) and then simply invokes methods on the proxy. With JAX-WS, the developer does not generate or parse SOAP messages. It is the JAX-WS runtime system that converts the API calls and responses to and from SOAP messages.

Introduction

The Cisco Service Control Application Reporter (SCA Reporter) is the Cisco Service Control application tool that allows you to produce reports based on the traffic analysis performed by the Service Control Engine (SCE) platform. The information is sent from the SCE platform and is stored in a database. The SCA Reporter can query and retrieve information from the database and present the results in a comprehensive range of reports, including global monitoring, subscriber monitoring, P2P, and traffic discovery statistics reports.
