Giovanni Trapattoni warns he will not make too many changes for the Republic of Ireland's last game, as otherwise "people will say I'm favouring Italy."
The last Group C match is a must-win for the Azzurri, while the Irish are already eliminated following two defeats to Croatia and Spain.
"Against Italy I intend to field the players who earned and deserved this qualification to Euro 2012," said Trap.
"If I were to make five or six changes to the line-up, then I'm sure that would raise suspicion and people will say I'm favouring Italy."
The Nazionale could go out even with a victory, as a 2-2 draw between Spain and Croatia would send both those teams through to the Euro 2012 quarter-finals.
It is the same situation that saw Italy knocked out by a 2-2 result between Denmark and Sweden in Euro 2004, when Trapattoni was at the helm.
"Considering all the focus on this issue, it looks to me like it won't happen. There are many more eyes on the problem compared to 2004. Clearly it's all possible, but I hope such a thing will not occur."
The 73-year-old also assured he has no intention of resigning from the Republic of Ireland bench.
"After Euro 2012 there will certainly be changes in the starting line-up. I already have in mind some elements that can be introduced."

Editor's note: A special-called meeting of the Lebanon City Council has been scheduled for 6 p.m. today, April 17, at city hall. The agenda includes the second reading of the ordinance setting the new water rates and a noise variance for the Color in Motion 5K.
The Lebanon City Council has scheduled a special-called meeting at 6 p.m. Monday, April 15, at city hall to decide on a request to increase water rates.
The Lebanon Water Company on April 8 asked the council to approve a 15 percent water rate increase, and after nearly 40 minutes of discussion, the council agreed to meet again April 15.
From The Kentucky Standard
The Nelson County Sheriff's Office is investigating a homicide at 1660 Plum Run Road, and a woman has been charged with murder.
Dispatchers received a call at 6:26 p.m. Wednesday from someone who said a man was lying in the driveway of the home and appeared to have been shot.
When officers responded, they found 51-year-old James M. "Marcy" Thomas III dead at that location. (Thomas is a Marion County native.)
Kentucky Press News Service
The U.S. Postal System's Board of Governors has announced it will indefinitely delay its planned implementation of five-day mail delivery in the U.S. on Aug. 5.
The board said restrictive language from Congress prohibits it from reducing the current six-day delivery to five days a week.
The Marion County Chamber of Commerce hosted its annual Farm, Home and Garden Show last weekend at the American Wood Fibers Warehouse in Lebanon. Visitors could get ideas for home improvement projects and enjoy some food prepared by the Marion County Cattlemen's Association.
The Working the Puzzle for Autism Walk returns to Lebanon this weekend as part of the ongoing effort to increase awareness about autism throughout the community.
"I really just want people to know that everybody is invited," said Lisa Nally-Martin, the event organizer.
The walk is scheduled from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, April 13, at Graham Memorial Park. In the event of rain, the walk will be moved to Lebanon Middle School.
Autism is still a mystery for families affected by it and for the medical community alike.
Without a doubt, autism creates challenges for those affected by it, and for their loved ones, but sometimes that mystery leads to something surprisingly good.
The Marion County Fitness and Nutrition Coalition is hosting its annual Family Bike and Hike 5K Run/Walk Saturday, April 20 at Graham Memorial Park.
The Family Bike and Hike is open to everyone in the community, although parents must accompany their children during this event.
Children 5 and under can participate for free, but they must be registered for the event.

Odisho reminded the audience, which included several local business and government officials, that the economy went through a downturn, but it is slowly improving.

As we saw in this issue's feature, the period around the Great Crash of 1929 was a good time to be in what we call 'defensive' stocks. These are shares that hold their value when the rest of the market is being beaten back. Between 1929 and 1932 most stocks lost about 80% of their value but a few actually went up, like Time Inc for example, publishers of Time Magazine since 1923 – the News Corp of the period.
Although most stocks took a bath, those with defensive qualities bounced back with the 1933 recovery. General Motors too was profitable and dividend paying right...

COLORADO SPRINGS — Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin, an unfamiliar name to most Americans until last week, has been dinner-table conversation for 18 months in the Brickley home in Peyton.
Adam Brickley, a 21-year-old senior in political science at the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, started a "Draft Sarah Palin for Vice President" blog in February 2007.
Brickley, who has been working as a news intern this week at the Republican National Convention in St. Paul, Minn., said it's an exaggeration to say his blog was a key factor in John McCain's discovery of Palin. Brickley does allow that his efforts "helped get her on the national radar screen."
"There aren't many politicians who are the whole package," Brickley said. "She's good at governing and reforming. She has charisma and a strong personal story."
Brickley said Palin has packed more accomplishments into two years as Alaska's top executive than most two-term governors can boast. And "she has a clear record of being a phenomenal mom," he said.
Brickley had never met Palin but found out about her while researching potential vice presidential candidates. He was a college sophomore, and Palin was just two months into her term as governor.
"My son is a political junkie," said Julie Brickley, 44, of Adam, who lives with his parents. "He's been telling me who to vote for since he was 10."
She is almost as enthusiastic about Palin as her son is.
"She's not an old white guy," Julie Brickley said. "Do you know how often a woman gets this close to the White House?"
A mother can learn a lot at the dinner table in 18 months.
"These are normal people," Julie Brickley said of the Palins. "Sarah Palin cooks her own meals. She shops at Wal-Mart. She walks her kids to the bus. And she doesn't take any crap from anybody."

Sir Gawain and the Green Knight
Play script. A fantasy adapted by Dennis Scott. This wonder-filled tale of old is made by the National Theatre of the Deaf into a gleaming thing of marvels, adventure, magic, and mystery, to be cherished by all people, young or old - - for any time of the year, and most particularly as a play of Festival at New Year's or Christmas. An empty space. Cast of 4 men, 2 women minimum who create 20 or more men, women, and one red bird.Faithful to the wit, elegance, and perceptions of the fabled original tale of old as told by Sir Gawain, Dennis Scott has made a fantasy of great richness and depth sufficient to captivate adults and to fill children of all ages with delight. Originally made for The National Theatre of the Deaf, and premiered at the Eisenhower Theatre of the John F. Kennedy Center for the first national Children's Festival, 1977, this is a play not just for children, nor merely for a deaf company, but for all people young or old. Conteur tells the story - - like a Merlin/Morgan le Fey - - producing all the magic and creating all the obstacles for Gawain.

Reception: 6:00 p.m.
Dinner: 7:00 p.m.

Register here for the 25th Anniversary Dinner
Earlier this week, EPI analyzed Census Bureau data on income, poverty, and health insurance coverage. The data is another reminder of the Great Recession's devastating effect on working Americans and their families. The deterioration of the labor market caused incomes to drop, poverty to rise, and health insurance coverage to decline. In a press conference call, two briefing papers, and subsequent analyses on EPI's blog Working Economics, EPI's experts explained what these numbers mean for American families.
In A lost decade: Income and poverty trends bleak for working families, EPI economists Dr. Heidi Shierholz and Dr. Elise Gould explained that from 2009 to 2010, the number of jobs fell by 658,000, the unemployment rate increased from 9.3 percent to 9.6 percent, and the share of unemployed workers who had been unemployed for more than six months climbed from 31.2 percent to 43.3 percent. The deterioration of the labor market also had a deleterious effect on household income. "The typical working-age household brought in roughly $6,300 less in 2010 than it did in 2000,"said Shierholz.
Other statistics are equally troubling:
In Another year of decline for employer-sponsored health insurance Gould discussed the rising number of uninsured Americans under 65 and explained the compounding effects the Great Recession and jobs crisis had on the decline of insured Americans. Some of the report's findings:
Though truly heartbreaking, perhaps the latest Census data will further incite policymakers to fight to improve the condition and daily lives of American workers and their families.
Multiple major media outlets and reporters cited EPI's analysis of the Census Bureau data release.
The Washington Post's Michael Fletcher quoted Shierholz in the front page story "Nearly one in six in poverty in the U.S.; children hit hard, Census says." Shierholz told Fletcher that "not only have we experienced severe deterioration in recent years, but knowing how weak the outlook is makes this report even more ugly."
EPI Director of Health Policy Research Elise Gould discussed the rising number of uninsured Americans under age 65, from 48.3 million in 2009 to 49.1 million in 2010, with CNN Money and Reuters.
From CNN Money: ' "As the job market remains weak, Americans can no longer depend on their workplace for consistent affordable coverage," said Elise Gould.'
This week's Economic Snapshot illustrates the disturbing fact that the richest 5 percent of households obtained roughly 82 percent of all the nation's gains in wealth between 1983 and 2009.
The bottom 60 percent of households had less wealth in 2009 than in 1983, meaning they did not participate at all in the growth of wealth over this period.
Today, the Bureau of Labor Statistics will release its monthly states employment report. Please visit the EPI homepage to see an interactive, color-coded breakdown of the report and to learn how your state is affected.

What happens if a one-humped camel humps a two-humped camel? How many humps has their child? According to Robert Irwin, the baby will be blessed with a single elongated hump and is called, in Persian, a bokt. If you mate a camel and a lama, they'll give birth to a cama. In this small book, Irwin has crammed an astonishing amount of information about dromedaries (camels with a single hump) and Bactrians (camels with two). He writes in snappy sentences, gleefully machine-gunning the reader with facts and anecdotes, delivered with an undertone of dry wit. He tells us what to look for when you're buying a camel and, when your relationship sours, how to cook her. Most usefully, he also reveals the best way to defend yourself against the advances of an angry camel: "Rip off your clothes and throw them before him. He may accept this as propriation".
Irwin writes brilliantly about camels in art and literature, unearthing them everywhere from Madame Bovary to Ishtar. Rejecting more conventional interpretations of The Seven Pillars of Wisdom, he suggests that a "valid way of reading Lawrence's book is as an informally structured encyclopaedia of the camel written in prose poetry". He also modestly accepts the limits of his own expertise: "It is unfortunate that the only study of the camel in literature is B Baast's Gangan Ulaan Temee . . . Since this book is in Mongolian, I have no idea what it says."
The world is full of camels – a million wander freely through the Australian outback, dodging the bullets of sharpshooters sent to cull their population – but there are only about 20,000 lions in Africa and the rarer Asian lion has been reduced to a tiny inbred population of 300, confined by a reserve in Gujarat. Even so, lions seem to be everywhere, bombarding us from picture books and documentaries. "The lion is the king of clichés," writes Deirdre Jackson at the beginning of her neat survey of his habits and cultural history, and reveals that humans have always been fascinated by them: the first human painting, daubed on a French wall 32,000 years ago, shows 70 lions, alongside some nervous deer and bison.
Mostly, she says, a lion's life is very dull. Researchers run the risk of falling asleep and missing the rare moments of action. Even so, people have always wanted to hunt them. Gilgamesh proved his machismo by massacring lions. So did Hemingway: "He's my lion and I love him and respect him and I have to kill him."
Why do people hunt lions? Apart from the obvious reasons – saving your skin or protecting your property – Jackson doesn't delve too deeply into psychological speculation, although she does find an intriguing difference in cultural attitudes to the hunt. For African hunters, armed with only a single spear, "the emphasis was on the communal nature . . . By contrast Europeans glorified the solitary encounter of big game hunter and lion." Thus the photos of a proud chap with his foot on a dead lion's head.
The lion and the camel are the 34th and 35th in Reaktion's series of superb little books about animals, joining the bear, the fly, the fox, the moose, the tortoise and the rest of the crowd gathering on my shelves. These small volumes definitely don't pretend to be authoritative – they're too short, too idiosyncratic and too much fun – but the series provides a perfect introduction to an increasing number of animals and I hope it continues for a very long time.

|(Jacob Gerritsen)
Q. Do you think your medical training is relevant to you now as a novelist?
A. It's incredibly important to me. I think what medical training does is it gives you the language, the tools to look up facts. I think medical training gives you a sense of how to approach a problem, how to look at symptoms and go down the list of what it might be.
Q. Does it help you find story ideas?
A. Medicine is probably one of the best backgrounds for a writer to find stories. I always think cops and docs have the best background because we see so much of human behavior, such a range of human emotions. You're going to see people [with] loved ones who are dying, and you're also going to see people who are ecstatic because they just had their first child.
Q. Did you want to be a pathologist?
A. I was accepted into a pathology program while I was in residency. My internal medicine chief convinced me I was better off with the living than the dead, so I stayed with internal medicine. I often wonder though if I had gone into the pathology program and had had better control of my schedule, whether I would still be practicing medicine. It would have been easier to combine with motherhood.
Q. What made you choose medicine and then writing?
A. I was a novelist first, at age 7. I decided later on because of my Chinese background and my father's urging that I would be better off with a more stable career. I was interested in biology anyway, so medicine was a natural for me. After I published my third book, I realized I could be a stay-at-home mom and still have a career, and so I left.
Q. You write at an amazing pace — at least a book a year. Where do you find inspiration for all those books?
A. Everywhere — conversations, or news articles. What I really am looking for is the idea that gives me a jolt. That very emotional premise that makes me think and gives me either a sense of outrage or shock. Something that will keep me going for the year it takes me to write a book.
Q. Such as?
A. I read an article in The Boston Globe about a woman who was found dead in her apartment and they took her to the morgue, and a couple of hours later, she woke up. Whoa. How often does that happen? So I just thought, there's an idea for a story.
Q. And what has being a writer done to your view of medicine?
A. Writing is very much an emotional process, it requires you to be very in touch with your feelings. That is the opposite of what you're taught as a medical doctor. We're supposed to be detached and logical. Maybe because I started off as a writer and then became a doctor, I'm able to integrate those two.
Q. You are speaking tonight at UMass Medical School. What will you tell the medical students?
A. I think that for physicians who want to become writers, they have the material, the smarts, they have the logic, they know the stories, it's just a matter of being able to connect with their emotional sides — that's the key to writing good fiction.

My 2 year old started stuttering last week, esp saying his own name, and calling daddy, he would repeat the first sound, da da da dadi. I got him to repeat the sentence/word again slowly. I don't know if this is the right way to do it, or just ignore him when he stutter... HELP!!! His speech is otherwise fine, he is saying almost a sentence each time.

In reading the Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 Events Specification, specifically, the version currently (2010-09-23) at http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-3-Events/ ("Draft 07 September 2010"), I noticed a number of mostly editorial errors in Section 3: Section 3.1: * The text says: This ensures that an event object may be properly dispatched multiple times while also allowing to prevent the event objects propagation or default actions prior to the event dispatch. "event objects propagation" should be "event object's propagation" "allowing to prevent" should be "allowing preventing" (or maybe "allowing one to prevent") * The text says: Such events are handled in a synchronous manner, the event propagation that causes the event listener to be triggered must resume only after the event dispatch of the new event is completed. The comma should be a semicolon (or a sentence break). Section 3.2: * The text says: An example is the [HTML5] form element. That should probably be: An example is the HTML5 [HTML5] form element. or: An example is the HTML [HTML5] form element. or: An example is the HTML form element [HTML5]. (Note how section 3.3.1 says "HTML5 [HTML5] defines its event operations...") * "to associate new default actions to" should probably be "to associate ... with" Section 3.3: * The text says: Events may occur either synchronously ("sync") or asynchronously ("async"). Events which are synchronous must be ... Events which are asynchronous may be ... As written, that defines "sync" as "sychronously" (even though it really means "synchronous"). (One can have sync events and async events, but doing something "sync" or doing it "async" either makes no sense or is very ungrammatical.) The text should probably say: Events may occur either synchronously or asynchronously. Events which are synchronous ("sync events") must be ... Events which are asynchronous ("sync events") may be ... * "Each ... are fired ..." should be "Each ... is fired ..." Section 3.4: * "Events which are generated ... are trusted" should probably be "Events that are generated ... are trusted." (Some other uses of "which" don't seem right either.) * "events generated by script" should be "... by scripts" * "have a have a" -> "have a" * "these activation behavior" -> "these activation behaviors" Section 3.5: * "when applying that attributes or attribute value" should (apparently) be "... those attributes or attribute values" Section 3.5.1: * The text says: "... when it does not result from a user activating a button ..." Grammatically, that really should be: "... when it does not result from a user's activating a button ..." (It's talking about the activating done by the user, not the user in the state of or in the process of activating.) * "implementation dependent" -> "implementation-dependent" * "device dependent" -> "device-dependent", "application dependent" -> "application-dependent" ** There is a second section 3.5.1.

|Sun Java System Portal Server 6 2004Q2 Developer's Guide
Chapter 6
Overview of Implementing a Custom Provider
This chapter contains the following sections:
Before developing a custom provider, determine whether there is an existing Provider that can access the type of content you are targeting. For example, if you are trying to fetch content from a JSP page, you can create a channel based on the the pre-built JSP provider and configure it to access your JSP page. If none of the APIs can be used as is, determine whether or not the content can be presented by authoring a new provider by extending a provider base class (such as the ProviderAdapter or ProfileProviderAdapter).
To develop a provider, you must start by:
- Defining Specific Requirements and Functionality that includes defining:
Defining Specific Requirements and Functionality
Before beginning to develop a provider, determine the application specific requirements, content source, and properties of the provider.
Application Specific Requirements
Determine the nature of the provider. Will this provider be a building block provider or will this be a content provider? The content providers are special purpose providers and the building block providers are general purpose providers. For example, the bookmark channel is special purpose, where XMLProvider is general purpose. That is, the XMLProvider can be used, in general, to connect to an XML source and translate it via XSLT to some markup language.
Determine if the content made available via this provider will be:
- Preset for the user by the administrator thus making it unmodifiable by the end-user. This will determine the logistics of the isEditable() method.
- Preconfigured for the user by the administrator, but editable by the end-user (determines the logistics of the getEdit() method). If editable, determine:
- What will and what will not be editable. That is, determine the parameters that will be configurable and those that will not be editable.
- The type of edit form to present - EDIT_SUBSET or EDIT_COMPLETE. The advantage of using EDIT_SUBSET is that the EditContainer provides a common look and feel for all providers that have EDIT_SUBSET edit type. Using EDIT_COMPLETE edit type provides more control over the overall look and feel for the edit page.
- Determine the theme requirements for the content made available via this provider. A theme is a collection of visual elements, such as background color, font face, and so on, to be used when displaying the provider's content. The themes are stored as global properties in the organization level's display profile. Providers can use these properties in their templates or JSPs to achieve a global look and feel of the presentation. For use with JSP, theme properties can be accessed from a series of tag libraries. Non-JSP channels can access theme properties via the Theme class. See the Javadocs for more detail.
Presentation Method
Determine whether the provider will fetch content from template files or JSPs. This will determine the logistics of the getTemplate() method.
Channel template files are stored in a directory based on the name of the channel, or the name of the provider that is used by the channel. The channel directory for the provider is created under the template root directory. By default, this will be:
The JSPs and templates are stored under /etc/opt/SUNWps/desktop/default and /etc/opt/SUNWps/desktop/sampleportal directories. Storing the files in the /etc/opt/SUNWps/desktop/default directory allows the files to be shared. That is, when the Desktop service uses the comma-separated string (as an ordered Desktop type list) in the Desktop type attribute to lookup, it starts at the first element in the list and each element represents a sub directory under the Desktop template base directory. If a template is not found in the first directory (or the first string in the desktop type attribute), then it proceeds to the next one in the list. This continues until the item is found (or not), for all Desktop type elements in the list. If the default directory is not included in the list, it will be added at the end of the list implicitly.
The directory search order for the template and JSP files is as follows:
If there is no clientPath specified, then the directory search order is as follows:
The root of the search directory (default value of /etc/opt/SUNWps/desktop/) can be changed by modifying the templateBaseDir property in the desktopconfig.properties file.
If the channel display profile is defined inside a container display profile definition, the lookup for the channel will be desktoptype/containername/channelname/clientPath.
Provider-specific Properties
In the display profile, properties contain configuration information for the provider and the provider's channels. A provider can define any number of specific properties. See Properties in Display Profile and Portal Server Desktop Customization Guide for more information.
Also, a provider can have more than one properties file, which is actually a Java resource bundle file that enables localization of on-screen images or text. See Properties in Resource bundle for more information.
Properties in Display Profile
Provider specific properties are defined in the display profile. Provider specific properties are defined in the display profile within the <Properties></Properties> tag for the provider. The following is the structure of the properties in the display profile:
...subset of property definitions
Typically, the custom provider will not modify the required properties. When properties are updated, they are set in the user's display profile by the administrator via the administration console. However, values can only be set on existing properties.
If the provider class does not extend the ProfileProviderAdapter and implements the Provider interface, then the get*Property() methods cannot be used directly, and the display profile properties are not accessible. If the provider class implements the Provider interface directly, then no properties are required. Properties must be hardcoded return values or can come from another source such as a database. However, some provider properties are required if the provider implementation extends ProviderAdapter or ProfileProviderAdapter.
The following is a list of the mandatory properties for a provider. The mandatory properties described below are for a provider extending the ProviderAdapter or the ProfileProviderAdapter classes. If you are implementing the Provider interface directly, you can avoid the use of the display profile and the required properties outlined below.
Title of the Provider
Description of the Provider
Time interval for cached content
Can the Provider be edited
Type of edit form to use
Width of the Provider
URL of a help page for this Provider
See Portal Server Desktop Customization Guide for detailed information on the Display Profile properties.
Channel definitions that use a provider can overwrite the properties of that provider. At runtime, channel property values can be affected by the display profile merge process. See Portal Server Administration Guide for detailed information on the display profile merge process.
Properties in Resource bundle
Strings defined in the provider's resource bundle properties file are displayed on the user's Desktop and they are not the channel's properties (such as the channel title). Strings are defined in the resource bundle to enable localization.
Typically, resource bundle includes properties that do not need to be customized by the administrator or the end-user. For example, properties that need to be localized, are read-only at runtime, and properties that do not change per channel should be included in a resource bundle. Properties that need to be localized, are settable, and properties that change per channel should be in the display profile.
By default, a provider's resource bundle properties file is stored in portal-server-install-root/SUNWps/web-src/WEB-INF/classes directory. Note that you can change the file here, but you must re-deploy the portal web application for the changes to take effect.
Resource bundles that are needed by the custom providers should be copied into the provider class base directory (see Provider Class File for more information.) Resource bundles should be placed as individual files and cannot exist inside the JAR file under the provider class base directory.
Resource bundles are given a base name that equals to the name of the display profile provider definition that they are associated with. Typically, this is the relative (non-fully qualified) class name of the Java class file that implements the provider.
To get the name of the resource bundle in your custom provider, call ProviderContext.getProviderName(). This value can then be used as the baseName argument to ResourceBundle.getBundle(). If you are extending ProviderAdapter, simply call getResourceBundle().
Developing the Provider Class File
This section includes information on the requirements for developing a provider's class file.
Provider Class File Location
The provider classes must be deployed in the provider class base directory specified in the file /etc/opt/SUNWps/desktop/desktopconfig.properties. By default, the provider class base directory is /etc/opt/SUNWps/desktop/classes.
For hot deployment, the JAR file has to be dropped in the directory mentioned in providerClassBaseDir variable in the desktopconfig.properties file.
Provider Class File
The custom provider classes and all other custom classes that the provider classes reference can be bundled into a JAR file and placed in the provider class base directory. They can also exist as .class files in the provider class base directory.
If a class exists in a file and is also present in a JAR file under the provider class base directory, the class existing as a file under the provider class base directory is given the first preference. Once the class is found as a file, no attempt is made to check for its existence in a JAR file.
If a class file exists in two JAR files under the provider class base directory, the class is picked up from one of them at runtime. Do not duplicate classes in multiple JAR files.
When compiling the class file, the Servlet API (identity-server-install-root/SUNWam/lib/servlet.jar) and PAPI (portal-server-install-root/SUNWps/sdk/desktop/desktopsdk.jar) are required in the CLASSPATH. That is, when compiling a *Provider.java file, you must type:
javac -d /etc/opt/SUNWps/desktop/classes -classpath portal-server-install-root/SUNWps/sdk/desktop/desktopsdk.jar:identity-server-install-root/SUNWa m/lib/servlet.jar *Provider.java
Provider Class Loader
To support hot deployment of Provider classes the Portal Server has a Provider classloader implementation that can pickup changes to custom classes in the Provider Classloader directory. The provider class loader in the Portal Server software is used to load the classes.
A Provider Classloader instance loads all custom provider classes and resource bundles. When a class in the Provider Classloader directory changes, the Provider classloader and all the classes it loaded are discarded; a new Provider Classloader object is created and this one reloads all the custom classes.
In order to upload a new version of a custom provider class without restarting the server:
In order to reload a property file, that is being used by a custom provider, with a modified property inside a resource bundle in the provider class base directory without restarting the server, change the last modified time on the custom provider class. If the custom provider class exists:
The presence of the provider class loader has an impact on the design of a multi-channel application in the Desktop. When an object reference is cast from one type to another, not only does the class of the variable need to match the class of the object, the two associated class loaders have to be the same too. This constraint can show up when objects are being passed between different channels in the Desktop.
For example, consider a portal application that uses two providers, one for a container and the other for several leaf channels. Call these providers HeadlineContainerProvider and HeadlineProvider. The container provider performs some common processing for the leaf channels, and then the leaf channels access the container object to get the results of that processing. One way to implement this would be to have the HeadlineContainerProvider put a reference to itself into the request object. For example, in the HeadlineContainerProvider.getContent(), do:
request.setAttribute("HeadlineContainer", this);
Then, in the HeadlineProvider.getContent() method, do:
HeadlineContainerProvider hcp = (HeadlineContainerProvider)request.getAttribute("HeadlineContainer");
This example will compile, but when the desktop loads and runs this code, the HeadlineProvider will cause a ClassCastException on this second statement. The reason is that the HeadlinerContainerProvider object is loaded by one provider class loader object and the HeadlineProvider object is loaded by a different class loader object. The class loader for HeadlineProvider also loads HeadlineContainerProvider because HeadlineProvider references HeadlineContainerProvider. So we have:
The HeadlineContainerProvider class is also loaded by loader2 because of the reference to it in the HeadlineProvider code. The cast is from the object container1 (loaded by loader1) to the variable hcp (of type HeadlineContainerProvider loaded by loader2). Thus the cast fails because the class loaders are not the same.
To understand a case where the classes could actually be different, consider the case where container1 is loaded at time 0, and channel1 is loaded at time 10, but the HeadlineContainerProvider class files was updated on disk at time 5. This means that channel1 will be running with a different version of the HeadlineContainerProvider class than that being used for container1. The case must fail because the class versions are different.
To implement this type of application, an alternate solution is to pass an object as a request or session property that has a class that is not in the /etc/opt/SUNWps/desktop/classes directory, such as String, Set, or Hashmap. These classes are never reloaded except when the server restarts. The data that you store in that object becomes a contract between different versions of the classes that use that object.
Creating XML Fragments for Display Profile
A provider must be defined in the display profile before it can be used. This definition associates the provider with its class file implementation and includes the provider's properties. That is, the provider's display profile fragment should include default values for all the properties that are used in the provider.java file. For example, if the provider.java file contains getStringProperty("color"), the provider's display profile fragment should include a default value for color.
The provider's XML fragment in the display profile must adhere to the following structure:
<Provider name="providername"
class="provider class name">
The provider definition is the template that decides the properties for the provider's channels. However, the display profile definition for the channel ultimately decides the values for the channel's properties. When a channel sets a property, the property is set in the channel and not in the provider's properties. When defining channel properties in the display profile, include only those properties where the provider defaults are not applicable.
The provider's channel XML fragment in the display profile must adhere to the following structure:
<Channel name="channelname" provider="providername">
The channel definition in the display profile need not have the <Container> tag unless the channel is defined within a container. Channel definitions in the display profile can be encapsulated inside a container. The advantage of this is that it provides name scoping so that channels with the same name do not collide.
Unless a channel is referenced directly from the DesktopServlet URL, in which case it need not be encapsulated inside a container, you must reference a channel from some container in order to see it.
The container within which the channel will operate must adhere to the following structure:
To upload display profile changes, type:
where provider.xml contains the display profile XML fragment for the provider. See Portal Server Administration Guide for more information on the dpadmin command and on administering Portal Server software display profile.
Installing the Provider
This section provides information on:
Installing Manually
To install the provider manually:
- Compile the provider class file and copy the file to the provider class base directory which, by default, is /etc/opt/SUNWps/desktop/classes. Or copy the file to the location specified in the /etc/opt/SUNWps/desktop/desktopconfig.properties file.
- Copy the resource bundle files, if any, to /etc/opt/SUNWps/desktop/classes directory.
- Develop the JSPs and templates for the provider and copy the files to the template root directory for the provider which, by default, is /etc/opt/SUNWps/desktop/desktoptype/providerName.
- Develop and upload the display profile XML fragments for the provider, the provider's channels, and the container within which the channels will operate, if any.
Transporting Using the par Utility
Utilize the par utility for deploying channels and providers. The par command enables you to transfer or move providers or channels from one the Portal Server software host to another. The par utility creates a specialized packaging mechanism called a .par file for transport of channels and providers into and out of the server. A .par file is an extended form of the .jar file format, with added manifest information to carry the deployment information and an XML document intended for integration into the Portal Server software display profile on the target server.
The use of .par files is optional. You can just as well copy all files into their correct locations. The par utility makes deployment easier if you have to install the files on multiple servers.
To create a .par file from scratch, use the jar or export subcommand of the par utility.
To export an existing provider, use the export subcommand of the par utility.
For example, if you have the provider associated files in the development environment ready for deployment into the production environment, use the following command to build the channel and provider into a par file which can then be deployed on the system.
par export -r dn_amadmin -p password -v provider.par dn exportfile
To deploy the par file into the system, use the following command:
par import -r dn_amadmin -p password -v provider.par dn provider=providername,channel=channelname
All providers that ship with the Portal Server software are in the service-level Desktop display profile. There is no command to extract them all.
See Portal Server Administration Guide for more information on the par utility.

Top seeds no match in Match Play
Watson is lone survivor from top 10 after 2 rounds
Published 11:56 pm, Friday, February 22, 2013
MARANA, Ariz. — And then there was one.
One day after Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods went home, more top seeds followed Friday in the Match Play Championship until Masters champion Bubba Watson was the only seed from the top 10 remaining at Dove Mountain.
And even that wasn't easy.
Watson, the No. 8 seed, missed two straight putts from five feet that would have won the match before he finally put away Jim Furyk in 22 holes. It was the first time since this World Golf Championship began in 1999 that only one top-10 seed was left after two rounds.
What does that mean?
"Nothing," Watson said. "This game ... it's a toss-up. You can't really judge who's going to win, or bet who's going to win."
Luke Donald, the No. 3 seed who birdied his last two holes on Thursday to win his opening match, didn't know what hit him Friday. Scott Piercy won the first three holes, and then holed out from 221 yards with a 4-iron on the fifth hole and was on his way. He won, 7 and 6, to give Donald his worst loss in this event.
Fourth-seeded Louis Oosthuizen never led against Robert Garrigus, who closed him out on the 16th hole.
He'll next face Jason Day, who overcame a clutch putt on the 18th hole to beat PGA Tour rookie Russell Henley on the 19th.
Justin Rose, the No. 5 seed, couldn't keep up with Nicolas Colsaerts and lost, 4 and 2.
Shane Lowry earned a footnote in history at this 15-year-old tournament. After knocking out McIlroy on the 18th hole of the first round, the burly Irishman became the first No. 64 seed to advance to the third round. This wasn't that difficult, as he seized control early and beat Carl Pettersson, 6 and 5.
The other giant killer, Charles Howell III, wasn't so fortunate. Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano, who had to finish his 1-up win over Francesco Molinari in the morning, never lost a hole in a 6-and-5 win. Howell, one day after beating Woods, didn't make a birdie.
Defending champion Hunter Mahan had an easy time with Richard Sterne to win his eighth straight match, and next faces the last player to beat him in this event — Martin Kaymer. Of the 16 players remaining, the Americans and Europeans each have seven.
LPGA: Stacy Lewis shot a 3-under 69 to stay three strokes up after the second round of the LPGA Thailand.

ND Women's Swimming: ND nears conference meet

The Irish swimmers picked up a split this weekend, drubbing Big East rival Louisville on Friday, 187-113, before traveling to Toledo the next day for a close-fought loss to the Rockets, 158.5-141.5.
The swimmers extended their all-time record against the Cardinals to a perfect 3-0 in a Big East match that the Irish hope is a sign of how things will be in the Big East championship in a month.
"It is always great to beat an in-conference team," assistant head coach Joel White said. "This gave us a look at some of the competition we will see in the Big East, and that is always important."
Junior Christa Riggins stole the show for the Irish against Louisville and is quietly putting together her best year. Riggins won four events, including the 200-yard freestyle, the 100-yard freestyle, the 200-yard freestyle-relay and the 200-yard medley relay.
"Christa has been more consistent than ever before, and she would be the first to tell you that," White said. "She is much more in control of her racing and that has us really fired up."
The Irish were able to pull out the victory in many of the races. Junior Claire Hutchinson won the 1,000-yard freestyle and the 200-yard butterfly. Freshman Lauren Parisi won the 100 and 200-yard backstrokes, freshman Sam Maxwell won the 50, 100 and 200-yard breaststrokes, freshman Amywren Miller won the 50-yard freestyle. Junior Casey Wagner won the 500-yard freestyle.
Despite their blowout of the Cardinals, the Irish know that the Big East championship will not be quite so easy.
"We know that we are going to have our work cut out for us in a month," White said. "We are going to have to be at our peak."
The Irish unexpectedly fell at the hands of Toledo the next day.
"Toledo swam very well, much better than they've been all year, and they surprised us in that," White said.
The Rockets evened up the all-time dual-meet record between the two schools at 1-1 and snapped Notre Dame's two-meet win streak.
"We messed around with the line-up a little, tried some other people out in different relays to see what they could do," White said.
Lexi Shue was able to win the 1,000-yard freestyle and set a new pool-record in Toledo. Her time of 10:05.09 broke the previous record of 10:08.62, and was also a season best for Shue.
Sam Maxwell continued to impress in the breaststroke, winning both the 100 and 200-yard breaststrokes once again.
The Irish come home for their next meet against West Virginia in the Shamrock Invitational on Saturday. This will be Notre Dame's final regular season competition before the Big East championship.

Tonight will see the beginning of the college football season and the official beginning of the presidential general election campaign, when the first of two major party candidates accepts his party's nomination. College football and major elections have a lot in common. Both take in place in the fall; and both are the subject of impassioned, but often fruitless and childish, debates in workplaces and on Internet forums. So maybe it should be no surprise that so many college football players make their way into politics. In this election season we've seen former SMU star and ESPN College Football Analyst (and Mike Leach antagonist) Craig James fail in his bid to win the Republican nomination for Texas's open U.S. Senate seat. Former Montana Grizzly Jimmy Farris, on the other hand, won the Democratic nomination to represent Idaho's First Congressional District. Farris, a wide receiver who played five seasons in the NFL, was part of a Grizzlies team that went to the 2000 Division I-AA

How does Sleep affect Inflammation in the Body?
Inflammation is a primary marker for most degenerative conditions. As we have seen in previous articles, that is because inflammation is the key first step that our immune system uses to initiate healing systems whenever body tissue is attacked by Toxicity, Physical Trauma, Deficiency or Emotional Distress.
Most of us can understand the tissue damage that occurs with Toxicity, Physical Trauma and Deficiency.
How does Emotional Distress cause tissue damage?
Remember the "Grizzly Bear Syndrome" I talk about. When you are running from the bear or lion, you body could care less about digestion, tissue repair, immunity or long term health challenges. The entire system narrows down to an exclusive focus on immediate survival. Nothing else matters.
For many years, the medical profession only recognized that this metabolic shutdown could only exist long-term as a consequence of physical trauma. Nothing could be further from the truth!
We have long recognized that emotional distress is the primary cause of inflammation and tissue damage especially in long term chronic health challenges! When your emotional stress exceeds your learned coping responses, your body will escalate into the exact same neuro-physiological hormonal and physical response cascades it uses to escape a grizzly bear or lion.
How does this result in chronic inflammation and long term tissue damage that never fully heals?
Even though there may be, and often are, Toxicity-Physical Trauma-Deficiency issues present, and most therapies focus on these factors, people still have on-going chronic health issues.
Why is it these therapies are often ineffective or certainly, less effective than we would expect them to be?
There are basically two major factors to consider here. The first factor, we already mentioned. When the body interprets mental-emotional stress as a life-threatening threat, it acts in all the same ways it would if it was actually being physically attacked. That part of body neurology, commonly referred to as the "non-conscious" or "sub-conscious", does not think logically in the same way the cognitive mind does. It just reacts to emotional input according to learned behavior patterns or loops.
A body in survival mode does not care about healing anything. In fact, it deliberately creates anti-inflammatory corticosteroid hormones (yes, the same ones the drugs are designed to imitate) to shut down healing inflammation processes so you can run faster. Sounds ok, right? Except inflammation is the first step in the healing tissue repair processes! Arbitrarily trying to stop inflammation with what was intended to be a short term response to emergencies causes all kinds of complications and damage.
Here's where it gets interesting. The second factor is related to this chronicity. When there is a real physical, life-threatening event, (unless you have learned to automatically respond with very specific coping behaviors and responses) it can take as long as two to ten years for the body to decompress and fully recover! Wow!
Now, if we are talking about the relatively rare physical threats that occur in modern life, this may be ok. However, for long-term mental-emotional issues it means we never fully recover and the body becomes locked in a destructive cycle of initiating inflammatory processes which begins the healing processes then prematurely shutting them down and never truly healing! The whole healing system of the body never runs to completion!
How many of us have ever gone two years in your life without any significant emotional or physical stress event(s)? Exactly.
Soooo, what does this have to do with sleep?
Sleep is the primary time our body should come out of "Grizzly Bear" and just focus on healing and repair. It has been our experience, that when your mental-emotional "Grizzly Bears" reach the point that it disturbs your sleep cycles or runs even when you are asleep, true long-term healing can never occur.
Essentially, every case of chronic illness we have seen is accompanied by a long term sleep disorder! This includes people who seem to sleep enough but wake up tired, depressed, cold, or with no appetite for a large breakfast.
More to follow….

Students, teachers and coordinators of degree programs need to access frequently information about program courses, such as credits and prerequisites, and students' course histories. This information is generally available only in a textual format, which may hamper people to make overview analyses of these histories and of program catalogs. In order to ease these analyses, this work presents a prototype that uses interactive graphs for representing histories and catalogs. It enables to reorganize visually courses according to users' needs, such as planning future semesters or understanding the impact of a course as a prerequisite for other program courses.

Of Sarasota County's 2,000 bus stops, only 138 have shelters.
Most riders who account for the nearly 2.8 million passenger trips on Sarasota County transit annually may know what it is like to stand and wait for a bus — often in the rain or beneath the blazing sun.
Of the county's 2,000 bus stops, 138 have shelters.
Sarasota County Area Transit has set a goal of doubling that number so that 14 percent of bus stops have covered benches that are handicapped accessible.
The County Commission, however, thinks SCAT can — and must — do better.
"We should be at 100 percent," Commissioner Joe Barbetta said.
The commissioners are scrutinizing the county's efforts in getting bus shelters paid for and installed.
SCAT estimates that it can cost from $30,000 to $40,000 for a shelter including the land, design and construction of a concrete pad and acquisition and installation of the structure.
The commissioners find that price tag alarming.
"This is outrageous to spend this kind of money on a shelter," Barbetta said during a recent discussion about SCAT's goals.
"We can do the math and say this doesn't make sense," Commissioner Charles Hines said.
The commissioners told SCAT's new general manager, Glama Carter, to get those costs down.
Commissioner Christine Robinson expressed frustration about how long it takes to get an approved shelter in place. She says the city of Venice is still waiting on several shelters it was promised nearly three years ago.
"It doesn't seem logical to me that it takes that long," Robinson said.
Barbetta said that the Wal-Mart in Osprey got its bus shelter installed at its expense just months after the county required it in the store's development approval.
Commissioner Nora Patterson questions SCAT's estimates that it takes $4,000 annually to maintain a shelter.
"I find it really hard to believe we're spending that," Patterson said.
Carter has promised to take a harder look at what SCAT has been touting as its shelter expenses.
Anthony Beckford, the former SCAT director, resigned in March after it was discovered that half the buses in the fleet had expired fire extinguishers on board.
Afterward, auditors for the county reported that they discovered SCAT to be in a state of disarray.
For example, a bad contract for bus parts meant the county was sometimes paying triple what it should have for replacements.
County Administrator Randall Reid hired former Collier County transit director Carter to fix SCAT's accountability problems.
"Our efficiencies really need to be examined," Robinson said.

A U.S. woman accused of killing seven babies she gave birth to over a decade was arrested Sunday after police discovered the tiny bodies stuffed in cardboard boxes in the garage of her former home.
Megan Huntsman, 39, who lived in the Utah home until three years ago, had the infants between 1996 and 2006, investigators said.
Officers responded to a call Saturday from Huntsman's estranged husband about a dead infant at the home, police Capt. Michael Roberts said. Officers then discovered the six other bodies.
Roberts declined to comment on a motive and what Huntsman said during an interview with investigators.
Neighbors in the middle-class neighborhood said they were shocked by the accusations and perplexed that the woman's older children still living in the home didn't know their mother was pregnant or notice anything suspicious.
The spokesman said police believe the estranged husband and Huntsman were together when the babies were born, but he

The Worlds Most Beautiful Woman
Popularity has a bright side, it unlocks many doors. But the truth is that I dont like it very much because it changes the private life into a very small thing. Gina Lollobrigida
A former beauty queen and a graduate of fine arts who eased into acting in the late 1940s and was tagged by American moviegoers as The best thing to come out of Italy since spaghetti, Gina Lollobrigida achieved a reputation as an international star in the 1950s thanks to her performances in such movies as Fan-Fan the Tulip(1952), Beauties of the Night (1952), Bread, Love and Dreams (1953, received a Silver Ribbon Award and a BAFTA Film nomination) and its sequel Bread, Love and Jealousy (1954). The Worlds Most Beautiful Woman (1955, won a David di Dontello award) and Trapeze (1956). She was handed her next Silver Ribbon for her performance in Imperial Venus (1963) and took home a Golden Globe nomination for her role in the movie Buona Sera, Mrs. Campbell (1968) before leaving the screen in the early 70s to focus on her photography and sculptures. She made an auspicious return in 1984 by picking up a Golden Globe nomination in the television series Falcon Crest, as Jane Wymans half sister.
Now practically retired from acting, Lollobrigida has not made a film since 1997. She informed Parade magazine in April 2000, I studied painting and sculpting at school and became an actress by mistake .... Ive had many lovers and still have romances. I am very spoiled. All my life, Ive had too many admirers.
As for her private life, Lollobrigida was married to Milko Skofic from 1949 to 1971 and has a son with him. In 1966, she had an affair with comedian Jerry Lewis. At age 79, in October 2006, Lollobrigida made headlines after publicly proclaiming her engagement to Javier Rigau y Rafols, a Catalonian businessman who is 34 years her junior. The bond, however, came to an end on December 6 because of media pressure.
La Lollo
Childhood and Family:
Gina Lollobrigida was born Luigina Lollobrigida on July 4, 1927, in Subiaco, Rome, Italy, to a working-class family. With her sisters Giuliana, Maria and Fernanda, she grew up in a picturesque mountain village. She attended Rome Academy of Fine Arts in Rome, Italy, studying painting and sculpture, and did modeling in her youth. Gina earned the nickname La Lollo because she represented the prototype of Italian beauty.
On January 15, 1949, Gina married a Slovenian physician, Milko Skofic. After they had a son named Milko Skofic Jr., the couple divorced in 1971.
Falcon Crest
Young Gina Lollobrigida did modeling and took part successfully in numerous beauty competitions. At around this time, she started appearing in Italian films and made her debut as Nelly Corradis girlfriend in 1946s Elisir dAmore/This Wine of Love after being discovered by director Mario Costa. A year later, Lollobrigida entered a beauty contest for Miss Italy, coming in third after Lucia Bosé and Gianna Maria Canale. The same year, she also appeared in such movies as director Alberto Lattuadas drama Delitto di Giovanni Episcopo, Il/Flesh Will Surrender, starring Aldo Fabrizi in the title character, and the English-language A Man About the House.
In the early 1950s, Lollobrigida increased her status by playing roles in both Italian and international films, including Campane a Martello/Children of Chance (1950), René Clairs Le belle della notte/Beauties of the Night (1952), Alessandro Blasettis Altri tempi Infidelity (1952), Christian-Jaques Fanfan la Tulipe/Fan-Fan the Tulip(1952), John Hustons Beat the Devil (1953) and Mario Soldatis La provinciale/The Wayward Wife (1953), in which she brightly portrayed the miserable adulteress Gemma. However, it was not until Pane, amore e fantasia/Bread, Love and Dreams (1953) and Pane amore e gelosia/Bread, Love and Jealousy (1954) that she was launched to stardom. Her performance in the first project even brought the actress a Silver Ribbon for Best Actress from the Italian National Syndicate of Film Journalists, as well as a BAFTA Film nomination for Best Foreign Actress.
As her fame was boosted, Lollobrigida graced the covers of both Time and Life magazines and was labeled The Worlds Most Beautiful Woman after her signature motion picture Donna più bella del mondo, La (1956), which handed her a David di Dontello. She went on to perform in such highly praised projects as Carol Reeds Trapeze (1956, with Burt Lancaster), Notre Dame de Paris/The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1957), Jules Dassins La legge/The Law (1959) and Frank Sinatras Never So Few (1959).
Kicking off the early 1960s, Lollobrigida starred in her next Hollywood film, Go Naked in the World (1961) and scored a hit with Come September (also 1961), a comedy/romance costarring Rock Hudson. The two rejoined in 1965 for Strange Bedfellows. She also teamed up with Alec Guinness in Hotel Paradiso (1966) and had the title role in the enjoyable Buona Sera, Mrs. Campbell (1968), where she was nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Motion Picture Actress - Musical/Comedy. Nevertheless, Lollobrigida reached her supreme success in Italian films with movies like Mare matto/Crazy Sea (1963), Le bambole/Four Kinds of Love (1965), Io, io, io... e gli altri /Me, Me, Me... and the Others (1966) and Un bellissimo novembre/That Splendid November (1969). She also picked up her next Silver Ribbon for her work in Venere imperiale/Imperial Venus (1963).
The productive performer withdrew from movies to work as a photographer in the 1970s. She then offered a notable performance as Fatina Azzurra, the Blue Fairy, in the TV miniseries version of Avventure di Pinocchio, Le/Pinocchio (1972). By the time she had emerged as a successful photographic journalist, Lollobrigida had photographed Paul Newman, Salvador Dalí and the German national football team, among others, and impressed the worlds press by attaining an exclusive interview with Fidel Castro. A collection of her work was published in 1973, called Italia Mia.
Still concentrating on other interests, including sculpting, Lollobrigida did not make a comeback until 1984, when she was cast as Francesca Gioberti, Angela Channings half-sister in the CBS primetime soap opera Falcon Crest. She earned a Golden Globe nomination for Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role in a Series, Mini-Series or Motion Picture Made for TV. This was followed by the television films Deceptions (1985) and Romana, La (1988). She made a handful of minor film appearances in the 1990s and ran fruitlessly for one of Italys 87 seats in the election for European Parliament in 1999, two years after her last film appearance in 1997s XXL. Lollobrigida was also a business executive for fashion and cosmetics companies.

Toward Brain-Computer Interfacing
Interest in developing an effective communication interface connecting the human brain and a computer has grown rapidly over the past decade. The brain-computer interface (BCI) would allow humans to operate computers, wheelchairs, prostheses, and other devices, using brain signals only. BCI research may someday provide a communication channel for patients with severe physical disabilities but intact cognitive functions, a working tool in computational neuroscience that contributes to a better understanding of the brain, and a novel independent interface for human-machine communication that offers new options for monitoring and control. This volume presents a timely overview of the latest BCI research, with contributions from many of the important research groups in the field. The book covers a broad range of topics, describing work on both noninvasive (that is, without the implantation of electrodes) and invasive approaches. Other chapters discuss relevant techniques from machine learning and signal processing, existing software for BCI, and possible applications of BCI research in the real world.
