- Best case out there now!
- I looked at many cases. For my tastes this is the best one out there at this time. I bought the black one. Also I got 25% off using the inc25 discount code. It is slim and snug the front bezel projects enough to protect the screen when you lay it down screen first. The back projects forward enough to protect both the fingerprint button and the projecting camera lens. The textured pattern on the back and four edges is not only classy looking but provides a secure grip. The flat textured edges are ideal for taking photos and videos securely, more so than smooth rounded or beveled edges. Also the process of popping my phone into this case did not push up the edges of my IQ Shield Matte screen protector. The matte texture of the screen protector along with the black case is so cool looking

President Obama made the right move yesterday in quashing the EPA's impending ozone regulations, and it wasn't an easy decision for him to make.
If Obama is the least bit serious about creating jobs, this was something he needed to do. Though issues like global warming get more play, it's the ozone rule that businesses fear most, fretting that it could force them to slash millions of jobs.
The decision is a rare recognition by the White House that regulation and economic programming require balance with the adverse effect such initiatives have on the economy.
While overall this dose of reality will likely help Obama politically – jobless voters are unhappy voters – it's still a risk for him because it forced him to anger many in his base who provide him with moral and political support.
Sure, the enviros are unhappy. But more worrisome to the president are his campaign grunts, the young ideologues who bought into hope and change and now must square their belief in Obama with his decision to stick with George W. Bush's pollution standards.
Angering your core supporters is never an easy move for a politician, and Obama's decision, though probably helping him politically, will also help the country. He deserves credit for making it.
Making things even harder for him on the Green Politics front is that he has recently approved new drilling in Alaska and the Gulf of Mexico and allowed construction of a pipeline from Canada to Texas.
Ironically enough, the health effects of ozone and the ability of the government to do something about them is less controversial than that of greenhouse gases, where Obama continues to plow ahead.
The lighter cars Obama wants to address greenhouse gas emissions will actually kill people and will have essentially no real effect on global warming – assuming even a large role for man-made contributions.
Now, if Obama would just reconsider the financial and health care regulations he has inflicted on the economy and propose vast reductions in projected long term entitlement spending, he may actually start moving the economy in the right direction.

Thanks for your feedback!
A perfect ending to a wonderful series.I discovered Deanna Roy's books a little over 2 years ago when I purchased Forever Innocent; I've been a huge fan of hers ever since – no matter what name she writes under. (She is also JJ Knight and Annie Winters.) Forever Family reunites us with Corabelle, Jenny and Tina and brings us up-to-date a bit on what they've been doing. As the book blurb says, you can probably read this as a standalone but I think you'd really be missing out if you don't have the history for each of these women. (There's a boxed set for the first three books that will save you some $.) While each of the earlier stories came to a very satisfying conclusion for me, I loved reading this book with additional information about these characters. There are parts of this book that will tear your heart out but it was worth every tear I shed while reading this book. Tina's story was the most compelling for me – she really goes through a lot – but I enjoyed reading about all of them. Deanna seems to have a knack for touching on all emotions, which is my favorite kind of book to read. I can't wait to see what she comes up with next now that this series is finished. I almost forgot – the men in this story are pretty wonderful, too, especially Dr. Darion. *****Reviewed for Xtreme-Delusions*****by ButttonsMom2003 on February 19, 2016

NEARLY EVERYONE HAS heard about computer malfunctions that result in ridiculous consequences, such as a widow being billed $15 million for telephone service instead of $15. They may be maddening, confusing or amusing, depending upon one`s perspective, but such lapses are usually fairly harmless. However, as computerization takes hold in ever more complex areas of life, some experts are beginning to warn about the threat from what they call ``killer software``--programming errors that cost lives.
Earlier this year, a linear accelerator used in providing radiation treatment to cancer patients killed two men and injured a woman because of a bug in its software. The machine, a Therac 25, delivered lethal doses of radiation after a series of computer editing steps were taken. The software provided no indication to technicians that anything was amiss.

Caroline & Simon
Here we have a great wedding from a few weeks ago. We photographed Caroline & Simon's wedding at Billesely Manor in Warwickshire. It was a day of dodging the rain but that didn't stop us getting some great images and everyone having a wonderful time! Caroline and Simon are the cutest couple and they have some great (and hysterical) freinds that I'm sure you can see from the photos!

Boy oh boy, the crazy things men do at concerts. The free, by-invitation-only show last Thursday night at the Lincoln Theatre with Los Angeles-bred radio rockers The Exies was a testament to the hilarious things that happen when men, testosterone and beer meet for the evening.
Raleigh's own nu-metal emcees Squeezetoy opened the show, the second in a series of Budweiser 1 Night Stands sponsored by WBBB 96.1 and Budweiser.
"We're gonna try to tickle everyone's groin right now, so that at the end of the set we all have one big simultaneous orgasm," quipped Squeezetoy's Whitey-Ford-with-the-microphone J-Martin, three songs into the set.
J-Martin later took to the top of one of Lincoln's large stacks, giving the 3-year-old venue one of its inaugural crotch-grabbing speaker mounts. After rapping two verses high above the stage with hands shaking and voice wavering, the man in the backward hat jumped back to the stage, joining the ebullient Omotade for the chorus.
As if that wasn't enough excitement for a weeknight, Axel Young, a self-described "balls-to-the-wall, all-out-rock" fan sporting an outdated Axl Rose 'do, made his way onto the stage during The Exies frantic set not one, not two, but an impressive three times. He danced. He smiled. He even managed to hug frontman Scott Stevens twice. Of course, he was wrestled off the stage and thrown out during the encore.
Praise WBBB
Locally owned WBBB 96.1 has been one of the few local stations to take an actual interest in the Raleigh music scene during the past few years. Local and regional bands are beginning to receive substantial airplay, and the station is beginning to consistently bring outside talent into the market. Chris Grace, a potentially explosive rock act out of Manhattan, opened the show, and their debut single "Thorn" has entered regular rotation at 96.1. Grace--at the request of the station--will be a common player in the Raleigh club circuit in the coming months. They open for Oleander at Lincoln Theatre on April 15.
The Lincoln will play host to two consecutive nights of great jam this week. The Jazz Mandolin Project--a traditional bass, percussion and mandolin bluegrass outfit that performs in some of the most brilliantly non-traditional ways imaginable--performs on Thursday night. The band's latest effort Jungle Tango, a dense, masterful collection of jazz and bluegrass-induced psychedelic washes and crescendos, hit stores on March 25. Umphrey's McGee, one of the hottest jam bands ever to come out of the Midwest, plays two sets Friday night.
Make a Ruckus
It's time for March Madness, Ruckus-style. Ruckus Pizza, a pizza and beer dive by day and a hard rocking, cozy venue by night near N.C. State's campus, is hosting its first Battle of the Bands. The tournament, consisting of a 16-band bracket spanning genres from splintering cock-rock to local hip-hop to acoustic pop, began seven weeks ago. First round competition ended Thursday night. Second round competition begins on April 3 with Raleigh's own punk-ska fiends Flojo, and the championship showdown will be held at Ruckus on May 10. The competition is judged by a panel of local celebrities and radio personalities, as well as Ruckus co-owner Ryan Pilz. The winner will receive a band's dream: $1,000 courtesy of Budweiser, a Paul Reed Smith electric guitar and enough studio time with Bass Music of Garner for the production of a demo.
"We were looking for guys to come in with some great originals and strong covers, and we wanted to find bands that will be around here for a while and are playing music full-time," Pilz told The Independent. "A lot of places here have tried different battles of the bands, but I think this format has worked really well for us and the acts."
Visiting the Deep South
Raleigh's own Deep South Records is on the prowl again. Formed by music-lovers-turned-businessmen Andy Martin and Dave Rose in 1995, Deep South released three compilation CDs in short order. The sounds on those discs were so strong, in fact, that 19 of the 60 bands featured--from The Marvelous 3 to Athenaeum--went on to sign major-label deals. The label went on a brief hiatus in 1999, when Martin and Rose chose to focus on establishing a high-profile artist management company. Following their timely re-launch earlier this month, the label's fourth compilation, appropriately dubbed Deep 4, will be released later this year.
The label has already released Raleigh-based Waylandsphere's debut EP Salt Works Meditation, a disc packed so tightly with huge, Jimmy Smith organ flairs and pouncing drum work that it often threatens to burst at the seams. Waylandsphere headlines their CD-release party April 5 at The Pour House.
The John Molo-led jam collective Moderko plans to release their debut EP on Deep South this summer, and the Emma Gibbs Band will soon re-release its latest two records on the label.
Jazz Anew
Jazz Anew, a once regular dance party at the now musically defunct Humble Pie, will now make its home at Kings on the first Friday of every month. The first show--featuring DJs Archer, Guile, dj.exe and Nik Fidele--will happen April 4 in celebration of Saint Stupid's Day, an event that apparently began as a San Francisco parade dedicated to the celebration of the completely absurd.
From British Invasion to Noise Rock
Get ready to shake it like you used to as a British Invasion! pulls into Kings on April 5 to cover Gang of Four, Joy Division and the ilk. Classically trained, experimentally inclined guitar virtuoso and teacher Craig Hilton (who doubles as Kings' vanguard doorman) will spearhead a Festival of Noise at Kings on April 12. His band, appropriately dubbed CHilton (C for Craig, plus Hilton), will test the waters of avant-garde noise rock along with a handful of other local bands.

German Member of the European Parliament Beatrix von Storch writing for Breitbart London is mostly right about closing the EU's borders but she also wants to talk about Schengen a lot more, keeping open borders and free movement of people in the European Union (EU).
Yet she does not mention how this will happen other than her party, the Alternative for Germany (AfD), keeping up the pressure on Angela Merkel.
The EU consists of 27 states. Admittedly Germany is the most powerful force and I admire her and her party's rapid rise and wish them well electorally, but there is a different path that could achieve all that she wants much quicker than achieving electoral success in Germany.
UK readers may ask, indeed as some UK Independence Party (UKIP) members have: why are you bothering, we are leaving shortly?
No, we are not leaving anywhere soon. We have vague utterings from the newly established Department for Brexit and, until we trigger Article 50, we are still in the sclerotic Union and still their laws go straight onto our statute books. Repealing the 1972 European Union Communities Act would put a stop to that, but it will not happen.
Immigration in the Brexit debate was such a big issue that we still need to address. Even by leaving the EU, it is not clear from the Department of Brexit during negotiations what will happen to free movement of people. The EU's borders are still porous and alongside those coming in wanting a better life, jihadis sneak in too. Our own government admitted in a secret report that our borders are not safe and that our maritime services are stretched beyond capability, dangerously so. Turkey's Erdogan is trigger happy with his own people and threatening to renege on the dirty deal that the EU brokered with him to stop migrants entering Greece.
Ms. von Storch's argument sounds plausible, until you look at the make-up of the European Parliament, its president, its Commission and its functionaries. It is all set up to fulfil the will of the two largest groups: the left-wing Socialists and Democrats (S&D) and the so-called conservatives of the European People's Party (EPP). Until that stranglehold is broken, her reforms will not take place.
The European Parliament is very much obsessed with the Schengen free movement zone and open borders. From the EPP to the communists/hard Greens on the extreme Left – where they will countenance absolutely no discussion about limiting or closing borders or the distribution of refugees – the extreme Left and many socialists absolutely refuse to distinguish between, migrants, economic migrants, refugees, and asylum seekers. To them, they are all welcome, and should be given homes, jobs, and educations in any country they choose, with no limits on numbers. Those of us who disagree are vile racists. They are backed up by Juncker's Commission. Brexit or not, illegal immigration is still a big problem for us.
That is why we should work together to unite the right across Europe.
I started writing my book, Beyond Brussels, this time last year, pleased that a Brexit referendum had been agreed. My book outlined a bright future outside of the EU, working with our European partners, indeed written jointly by my European partners in the ENF group. The last chapter detailed how the right would have to join together to achieve its aims.
Firstly, you have to understand who sits on the 'right'.
The European People's Party (EPP), EU's largest group, is not a happy band of brothers
A new alliance should be urgently sought between those are who are disaffected in the EPP.
For example Hungary's Fidesz party, led by Viktor Orban, which currently sits very uncomfortably with Merkel's EPP group. An interesting aside, is that Ms. von Storch was apparently forced to leave the group the UK Conservative Party runs – the Europe of Conservatives and Reformists – in a Merkel/Cameron coup against the AfD.
She now sits with UKIP's group, the EFDD, and her colleague Marcus Pretzel sits in my group: the Europe of Nations and Freedom (ENF). Already you see how disparate the right is inside the European Parliament. One wonders when you look at what Orban is doing to preserve his country's heritage and security and making very unsavoury (but true) comments about the legitimacy of the EU, how Merkel stomachs him in their group, politics I would imagine.
One wonders when you look at what Orban is doing to preserve his country's heritage and security, and making unsavoury (but true) comments about the legitimacy of the EU, how Merkel stomachs him in their group. The politics of necessity, I would imagine.
There are others in the German dominated EPP group who are also unhappy.
The European Conservative and Reformists (ECR), the EU's third largest group, has grieving members who are about to be killed off, so a cull is kinder
When Dan Hannan MEP persuaded David Cameron that he would be perceived as a Eurosceptic if he led his MEPs out of the EPP group and into a new, more sceptical group, it would do him a world of good politically. His MEPs, however, were dragged kicking and screaming out of the EPP. Only six of twenty-one Tory MEPs actively campaigned to leave the EU. Most of the Remainiacs are a grieving mess. They should, until Brexit, return to the EPP.
That leaves a number of other countries' parties such as The Finns and the Danish People's Party, who sat with Ukip in the last Parliament, free to join a new group.
The EFDD Group has strange bedfellows
Italy's Five Star Movement, who sit in the EFDD group with von Storch and Ukip, share the same hard Left's views on immigration.
Laura Ferrara, who sits with me on the LIBE committee (migration), has openly called for 'humanitarian corridors' from Africa to Europe. They vote against Ukip and its partners on green issues, taxation, economics, and immigration: fundamental issues that form the very basis of a contract of a group. Most of UKIP's MEPs are very uncomfortable with the arrangement.
The ENF is the most harmonious family in the Parliament
My group has just had its first birthday. We are now nine nations, with thirty-eight members. We are small, but growing. Even socialist MEPs from Eastern European states would like to join but are nervous for their own careers.
The elite would like to shut us down and do everything in their power to do so. In the conference of presidents, that I attend, the EPP and socialists openly discuss with President Schulz how to curtail our funding, our voting, our committee memberships, our sister party membership outside of the Parliament and try to gerrymander the numbers of MEPs and nations needed to form a group. It is because we are a deadly and popular force.
In the next few months my group could have France's first female president, Holland's prime minister, and Austria's president. That's something for a small group with little clout, little money but big bite and support. Even though I will be leaving through Brexit, it is a group that is going places. We would be happy to join together with other nations to save Europe's nation states.
A 'United Right' is what we need to save Europe
The 'United Right' group would have around 86 members from 15 different nations, making it the third largest political force in the European Parliament.
That takes political and moral courage.
I originally wrote this as a contingency plan if Brexit failed. I believe my contingency plan is what the EU needs now, to save its nations, control its borders and to keep us all safe and the UK still needs to do its bit.
As the UK is leaving the EU, party factions do not matter anymore, both in the Conservative Party and in UKIP. Do one last thing for your country and fellow Europeans who believe in our vision for their own nations, and join us in a United Right.
Janice Atkinson is an independent Member of the European Parliament who sits in the Europe of Nations and Freedom group

Remove the deep fascia covering the lateral aspect of the leg and identify the muscles of the lateral crural compartment. They are the peroneus longus muscle and peroneus brevis muscle.
The peroneus brevis muscle arises from the lower two-thirds of the lateral surface of the fibula and inserts, via its tendon, into the tubercle on the base of the fifth metatarsal bone.The peroneus longus muscle takes origin from the upper two-thirds of the lateral surface of the fibula and inserts into the medial cuneiform and the base of the first metatarsal. Follow the tendons of peroneus longus and brevis muscles as far distally into the foot as your dissection will allow. Pull on these tendons to demonstrate that the principle function of the peroneus longus and brevis muscles is to evert the foot (which aides in stability of the foot when walking on uneven terrain).

Apple and Microsoft, both the words are synonymous to technology. No body knew what apple was ten years ago and today it is one of the leading company manufacturing variety of products. Apple's Iphone business alone is now bigger than whole microsoft. Apple's smartphone division generated $24.4 billion of revenue in the first quarter of 2012, whereas the whole of microsoft generated $20.9 billion in the first quarter. That includes entertainment devices such as Xbox, as well as Windows, Microsoft Office and Windows Phone. It sold 37.04 million iPhones - its flagship product - and 15.43 million iPads in the first quarter, doubling from a year earlier. Apple's hoard of cash now stands at $100bn - which could be enough to buy Facebook outright. There are several reasons for Apple's growth. The first is that its sales and profits continue to grow at double- and sometime triple-digit rates. This is absolutely unprecedented for such a large company. Furthermore, Apple has been able to introduce new products and gain wide adoption for them in a way that is unmatched by any other company in the world.
Apple is like a tech version of Wonka's factory, an enigmatic but enchanted place that produces wonderful items one can't get enough of. That characterization is true, but Apple also is a brutal and unforgiving place, where accountability is strictly enforced, decisions are swift, and communication is articulated clearly from the top. Before joining apple, each employee is trained for few weeks. In this training session, the employees are instilled with the values of apple. Moreover, the employees are encouraged to feel apple and treat it like a family. A problem is not looked upon as an organizational problem but a problem for each employee. The trainers are specialized people selected by Late Mr. Steve Jobs. Steve Jobs has become a cult figure among Apple's employees, customers and investors. He was one of the most recognized CEOs in the world. Jobs was viewed as the person who invented each Apple product, designed it, and planned its marketing. His death shocked every other person alive and is still remembered. No other company can claim to have a spokesman nearly as valuable as Jobs. Steve Jobs focused on the attention to detail, the secrecy, and the constant feedback -- into processes that ensured Apple's excellence far into the future. * WEEKLY MEETINGS:

Public Service Corruption: Minister sends wrong message to South Africans

The ANC government has sent an unequivocal message: it has neither the political will to tackle corruption, nor the capacity to do so, implicitly condoning the looting of the state by cadres.
Reports say that nearly 1000 police officials have been convicted of fraud after investigations by the Special Investigations Unit (SIU). It was further revealed that a total of 96 000 public servants have stolen from the state. Since the beginning of the Zuma Administration we have heard of a pledge to root out corruption in the government and the civil service. President Zuma made it one of the priorities of his government in his first State of the Nation address.
However, the Zuma government has declined dismissing those convicted, saying that the consequences would be too severe for the civil service to handle.
It is interesting to unpack the implications.
The message that the National Government is sending is that if corruption happens on a big enough scale, you will not be prosecuted and thus almost gives an open field to civil servants wishing to defraud the public.
That in turn sends a message to the corrupt that they should mobilize in large numbers and discourages transparent and honest people.
The implication is that corruption is apparently so extensive in South Africa that the state cannot act against proven offenders. This raises disturbing questions of the authority of the state and its capacity to enforce the laws which underpin our country.
There is seemingly little political will to root out corruption from the senior leadership of the ANC government. President Zuma has done little but offer empty promises that tackling corruption would be the central focus of his Administration, starting with his first state of the nation address.
Indeed, that political will seems to be subservient to satisfying political interests rather than enforcing the principle of clean government, which should be non-negotiable, as demonstrated by the Administration's disinclination to prosecute those who broke the law in the recent Public Sector Strike.
Public Service and Administration Minister Richard Baloyi has promised an 'Anti-Corruption Task-Team' which, to date, is nothing more than a hypothetical.
Minister Baloyi, like President Zuma, misses the point about corruption. The key to tackling this scourge is not by launching another costly initiative that will be tied down with a weighted bureaucracy and political maneuverings. It is by demonstrating decisive political leadership and will when it is needed, without thinking of the political risks.
In the Western Cape, DA leader and Premier Helen Zille has tackled corruption head-on since taking office and placed the principle of good governance at the very heart of her administration. We have seen results as shown in a full clean sweep of audits for the Provincial Government, a first nationally since at least 2004.
Faced with these two radically different approaches, by the time of the 2011 Local Government elections, voters shall be faced with two alternatives: an ANC that thinks fighting corruption means giving successive empty speeches, or a party of action that delivers what it promises.
Statement issued by Anchen Dreyer, MP, Democratic Alliance Shadow Minister of Public Service and Administration, September 12 2010

In April the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS) published a call for evidence seeking views on the government's proposals for a register showing who owns and controls overseas legal entities that also own UK property or participate in UK government procurement.
The call for evidence was in response to the government's concerns about the potential for illegal activity to take place through overseas companies investing in the UK's property sector.
The government aims to create a register that:
The government proposes that the new register will be held by Companies House, the registrar of companies in the UK.
The proposals are likely to impact both commercial and residential properties across the UK. Overseas entities will need to comply with the new Companies House registration requirements in order to buy and sell property in the UK..
In our response we acknowledged the importance of improving transparency and supported some of the government's proposals (for example, the proposed protection for lenders enforcing security over UK property).
We agreed that all overseas legal forms that can hold properties should be in the scope of the new register's requirements, and we stated that the proposed regime must be workable, proportionate, legally certain and readily understandable to those without legal qualifications and a deep experience of international legal structures.
We stated that clarity surrounding the new regime would be very important, especially in light of the government's message that 'Britain is open for business'.

When strangers meet my son PJ, I generally get some form of the comment "Wow, he has a lot of energy!" It's true. PJ is always on the move. His adventurous spirit and take-no-prisoners attitude is one of the things I love the most about my Boy. When they laid his tiny, six-pound body in my arms on the day he was born, I never imagined that this force of nature would always be the first and youngest to try any task. Surfing? No problem. Performing in front of huge crowds? Pffft. Easy. Giant inflatable slide? Did it twice.
Sometimes, however, PJ decides to use his powers for evil, and when he does it's with the speed and stealth of a comic book villain. I do my best to keep his active little body occupied and watched, but sometimes I have to pee (or throw some chicken into the oven, answer the phone, load the dishwasher, etc.). Three minutes is generally too much time to leave PJ to his own devices, as the following scenarios have proved. I am no match for the wiles of a determined little boy and have been on the defeated end of motherhood many, many times, left to wonder how a 37-pound kid can wreak such havoc before I can flush.
One might ask "How bad can it be?" It's never bad– thankfully, PJ has never been hurt and is not reckless to the point of endangering his safety. But, sometimes, he is a danger to my sanity. Ladies and gentleman of the jury, I present my case:
Things My Son Can Do In the Time It Takes To Pee
1. Fill the toilet bowl with toilet paper.
2. Drive one of his trains through my expensive-for-a-candle candle from Bath and Body Works.
3. Get into a bucket of spackle and spread it all over his feet (although, to be fair, my husband left the spackle out).
4. Give himself a facial with a red ink pad (being used for arts and crafts at school and, thankfully, washed out with no problems!)
5. Hang one of my running shoes from his toy crane and fill the shoe with rocks…and then fill that with water…from the toilet.
6. Jump into a puddle in the time it takes to say "Oh. Did it rain earlier?" And when his pants get wet? No problem, because…
7. PJ can go from zero to naked in six seconds.
8. Annihilate a piece of packing foam from the Father's Day gift I ordered on Amazon.
9. Climb anything.
10. Create an entire world of trains in our pitch-dark bedroom when he is supposed to be asleep in his own bedroom.
Obviously, I spend a lot of time wiping things/putting pants back on/vacuuming/bathing my kid/fishing things out of the toilet. I also drink a LOT of coffee. A few things have been ruined, and sometimes PJ is stuck with a stain on his skin that takes time to fade away. I get annoyed, tired, and even frustrated. But, I'll let you in on a secret.
I would not trade this kid for the world.
Yes, I need to buy new running shoes this week, and yes, PJ leaves a trail of destruction behind him from waking 'till sleep. But that same spirit that thinks it's funny to throw my hair clips in the toilet is also the same brave, funny, adventurous spirit that amazes me every day with his love of life. PJ is a really happy, healthy kid. His energy is boundless, but so is his love of life. If I need to clean up spackle every now and then as a tradeoff, I still think we're doing pretty well.

New developments in illustration, especially in the art of engraving as a method of high-quality illustration, helped to develop the book as more than just a medium for disseminating words. The early tradition of printing pictures from woodblocks was soon incorporated into printed books, to combine pictures and words on the same page. The quality of these woodcut images also improved, with techniques of shading replacing hand-colouring in order to portray form, tone and texture.
Engraving, which involved making an incision on a copper sheet was a means of producing higher-quality illustrations, as it allowed for greater delicacy than woodcut, but it required a different kind of printing press (known as a rolling press) to be used, making it more expensive and complicated to produce these kinds of illustrations together with printed text

Megan Fox showed off her incredibly slimmed body after giving birth to as son Noah on September 27th. Almost two months back, she gave birth to a son and now she flaunts off her svelte post baby figure in open. No one can say that she just has given birth to a baby. She looks really marvelous and classily sexier than before.
She with her hubby Brian Austin Green came to The Grove. The Transformers actress was really stunning in the black leggings and the grey sweater. The simple yet stylish look was adding real sparkles to her personality.
Both had been dating prior to tying the knot. Brian has a son with his previous marriage and Megan is quite acquainted with his son. Well, she looks happy with hubby and excited after giving birth to a son herself. Well, we hope to see her again in movies since she has a good fan following.

Ellsworth Kelly has recalled of his early development as an artist: "I didn't want to paint people. I wanted to paint something I had never seen before. I didn't want to make what I was looking at. I wanted the fragments." In Ellsworth Kelly at Ninety—a title that refers to the birthday the artist celebrated a few weeks after the show's opening—fourteen paintings and two sculptures in Kelly's signature fragmentary style are on view. Impressively, all of the large works were made in the past two years, evidence that the artist's age has not affected the prolific production of his work. – Nadiah Fellah, NYC Contributor

On view at Paula Cooper Gallery in New York is a large selection of pen and ink-blot drawings by the artist Bruce Conner (1933-2008). Spanning the period of 1962-2000, the drawings vary from postcard size to medium-scale works, and are all black-and-white. Also on view is a 2008 film by the artist titled EASTER MORNING, done in collaboration with the musician Terry Riley. – Nadiah Fellah, NYC Contributor

The artist Julie Mehretu has often commented that "trying to figure out who I am and my work is trying to understand systems." In a new body of work on view at Marian Goodman Gallery in New York, it is equally her desire to understand systems and their disintegration that becomes the subject of her art. Taking her point of departure from the events of the Arab Spring, Mehretu employs her trademark aesthetic of complex, layered imagery to evoke the topics of political and social change, as well as the civic spaces that became the sites of the recent revolutions and occupations. – Nadiah Fellah, NYC Contributor

Filed under: New York, Review | Tags: Gedi Sibony, Greene Naftali, Nadiah Fellah
On view at Greene Naftali are twenty new works by the New York artist Gedi Sibony. The show begins with a small room of found, framed works, each reversed in its frame and hung on the wall, so as to only display its posterior side to viewers. Poetic yet elusive titles like Into a Ring of Doubles and Doric Ions conjure the possible imagery present but now hidden. Instead, viewers are confronted with the aged and discolored backing of each work, irregularly held in place with patches of tape. By purposefully obfuscating from our view the presence of what is now known but implied, Sibony creates a sly commentary on knowledge and assumptions, pointing to a strong conceptual element in his own practice, and priming visitors for works in a similar vein in the gallery's main space. – Nadiah Fellah, NYC Contributor

Beyond the small room of framed works, the remainder of the gallery is entirely lit by the northeastern facing windows of Greene Naftali's eighth floor space. This changes and dramatizes the experience of the sculptures depending on the time of day or weather. Indeed, the term 'dramatize' is an apt one—many of the free-standing sculptures in the show evoke similarities to stage props or backdrops, their found materials and crude constructions reminding one of alternative or guerrilla theater productions.

Upon entering the main gallery, one encounters by a large, semi-circular structure, placed between two large columns. Titled The Porcelains, the structure appears as a stage might, centrally positioned, and providing a flat plane on which to stand. However, its pristinely white appearance, and title that equally references distance and fragility, betrays its lack of use, causing us to contemplate its latent possibilities.
Gedi Sibony | Ceaseless Episodes of Blossom, 2013, Carpet, primer, 98 x 73 ½ inches. Image courtesy Greene Naftali.
One of the several works that employs the backsides of large rugs—a method that falls in line with Sibony's reversed prints also on view—is Ceaseless Episodes of Blossom. The large triptych is positioned behind the semi-circular 'stage,' as if a backdrop, and features a grid of four reoccurring emblems, each signifying one of the four seasons. The juxtaposition of a rigorous grid format combined with the randomness of the emblems' repetition aligns the work with those like Alighiero Boetti and the Arte Povera movement in general, a connection that is also referred to in Sibony's use of raw and found materials.
Gedi Sibony Installation View, Greene Naftali, NY. Image courtesy Greene Naftali.
Another function of the large, obtrusive structure in the center of the gallery is that it forces visitors to move along the periphery of the space, whether or not they are aware of it. Thus it fits with Sibony's declaration that he likes to "complicate space" with his sculptures, compelling viewers to inadvertently move in patterns or configurations that they might not otherwise within a gallery.
Gedi Sibony | Grants Every Gift, 2013, Carpet, toy Ferris wheel, 90 ¼ x 71 ¾ x 7 inches. Image courtesy Greene Naftali.
Similarly compelling such movement is a large carpet fragment titled Grants Every Gift, hung with its underside exposed, and lying unevenly against the wall. When one instinctively peeks around the side of the work to look for an obstruction, one sees a small toy Ferris wheel wedged between the rug's surface and the wall, suspended at roughly eye level. This hidden and unexpected object is evidence of the wry humor present in much of the artist's practice, and slyly gestures at his ability to "toy" with our assumptions and expectations.

Gedi Sibony was born in 1973, and is originally from New York, where he currently lives and works. He holds a BA from Brown and an MFA from Columbia University. Since 2000, his work has been exhibited widely in the US and Europe. His sculptures were included in the 2006 Whitney Biennial, and the 6th Berlin Biennale in 2008.
Gedi Sibony is on view at Greene Naftali Gallery in New York through June 15th.

Filed under: Interview, New York | Tags: Arthur Pena, Conversation, Cordy Ryman, Dodge Gallery
I recently saw my first Ryman pieces in person at the Dallas Art Fair. Dodge Gallery had a piece made of 2 x 4's, painted and hanging on the wall. There was also a corner piece comprised of stacked 2×4's painted with soft, shiny colors. Upon closer inspection of the corner piece I noticed hand writing that indicated some sort of possible measurement. I couldn't tell because Ryman had cut the wood off before the information could be fully retained. But the markings were just enough to show his hand. I mean this in both that it injected the work with a very direct connection to the artist in what could otherwise be mistaken to be a minimalist corner sculpture and it also showed his hand in the sense of a "reveal", exposing the transparency of the process of making that Ryman is so willing to offer. After mounting his first solo show with Dodge Gallery, Adaptive Radiation, and just finishing up a public commission at Michigan State University, Ryman and I had a conversation. – Arthur Peña, Dallas Contributor

I've got abstraction on my mind. Not that I shy away from unmistakable figuration — and I admit my weakness for the sexiness of fin de siècle Paris (Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec et al) — but lately I've been focusing my attention on process and color, whether or not form is even discernible. I moderated a panel of young abstract artists recently, yet despite my grasp of 'contemporary trends' I still turned my attention to the boldly titled group exhibition Painting Advanced that opened recently at Edward Thorp Gallery in Chelsea. The kicker is the five assembled artists aren't all young (Gary Stephan and Andrew Spence are some four decades older than Rachel Malin), yet they are continually reworking the language of abstract painting, even within their own evolving styles. Time to take the pulse. — Brian Fee, Austin contributor

Tom Thayer and Dave Miko have paired up to create a series of video installations at Eleven Rivington's exhibition space at 195 Chrystie St (the exhibition was on view through March 17th). Tom Thayer's animations and assemblages were included in the 2012 Whitney Biennial, they are a kind of dark atmospheric storytelling pulling from the language of puppetry and theatre. Dave Miko's work is a more straight forward painting process, at times including the use of hand written text with oil on aluminum and recently, installations of wall sized drip and spray paint paintings. Miko was included in the Greater New York show at MoMA PS1 in 2010. The two have come together for what they call, "Baseless Legion of Architects Rent Asunder," a poetic title and an interesting marriage of two artists. Each piece in the show consists of a projection on an aluminum sheet hung a few inches off of the gallery floor. It looks as if they have worked simultaneously at their collaboration, with Thayer's projections and Miko's paint meeting up and complimenting each other in different segments. – Anthony Palocci Jr, New England Contributor

Not worth reading…
Great! How exciting to write a negative review of a book others seem to love. And how annoying! The main character is someone I would never want to know. She is a woman who has been the lover of a man for thirteen years but thinks no one knew of their relationship. Catherine is egotistical and manic. For a "mature" woman to behave with the poor judgment she displays toward one who is kind, over and over again, is rephrehensible. Catherine acts like a baby. She drinks, snorts cocaine and feels sorry for herself. Frankly, as a woman, it was easy to tell that the author was a man. Catherine is a caricature of how a man might see a woman in such a position. And, if that is not bad enough, another woman is added to the plot and she is equally crazy and unlikeable. Follow that with a bizarre secondary story about a mechanical contraption and surely you will understand the title. No? Well, that's what is supposed to be so innocuous, right? Hardly. Avoid at all costs or prepare to be irritated.

Museum conservator investigates mysterious object
Beautifully written, the author introduces us to the world of an expert museum conservator who becomes intrigued by a mysterious artwork that she figures out how to put together. Museum politics and office rivalries interfere with her quest, but more disabling, she grieves the loss of her secret, longterm lover. She cannot share her grief, but begins to find some distraction in discovering how to repair the mechanism of the object and in trying to get along with her new young assistant. The heroine discovers notebooks written by the nineteenth-century maker of the object, adding other layers of history and cultural contexts; there is a lot going on! Carey's book deserves to be read, as well as heard, to really savor his use of language, but the narrators make it a great listen as well. I needed to listen to "The Chemistry of Tears" more than once because the characters, especially the heroine and her relationships interested me and because the history of the object was so surprising.

There's an election going on right now and for a radio station and a newspaper, this election couldn't be more important.
"Having a newspaper cover 50,000 plus people in our community is really important and to have a staff that is dedicated to just relevant things to the MSU community is really important," State News Managing Editor, McKenna Ross, said.
The State News is asking for a two dollar and fifty cents increase in order to continue to improve their work and give students the opportunity to try something new. "An educational opportunity and work opportunity for journalism and media people to try out print and onlIne journalism and it's been a really good experience," Ross said.
At just three dollars, Impact 89F is requesting a tax renewal. Impact 89F Assistant Station Manager, Olivia Mitchell, said this tax keeps their station running. "We are really volunteer heavy and we like to be able to move people up when they have put in the work. Just to have all the supplies that people need, resources, and all that money goes to doing just that," she said.

Shareholder Protection Insurance
Shareholder protection, also known as buy / sell cover, is a type of insurance designed to protect the co-owners of small proprietary businesses.
You've formed a partnership with people you trust, and founded a thriving business. You've built the business together and you each perform a vital role in the work you do. You have distinct skills which complement each other and you make decisions easily because you all have the same goals.
If something happens to one of your partners, what happens to your business? Will you suddenly be in partnership with a committee of executors? Will you have to wait months while their estate is wound up before you even discover who owns half of your company?
Shareholder protection insurance is a contract between all the shareholders of your business, which sets out exactly what will happen if one of you is no longer able to participate in running it. You can insure against the death of a shareholder, or against serious illness or injury. The agreement allows the remaining shareholders to buy their shares in the business at an agreed price, using a lump sum payout from your insurance company.
Shareholder insurance protects your next-of-kin too, because it assures them of a fair price for your share of your business. By making arrangements in advance you can spare them the hassle and heartache of having to set a price on the business you built and sell your shares to a stranger.
Shareholder protection insurance can be packaged with other business life insurances to provide customised cover for your business. To find out more about how it works and whether it is right for your business, contact our experienced advisors today.
Key person insurance can be bundled with other business life insurances to provide a comprehensive, customised package. Our expert advisors can answer all your questions and advise you on the best combination of policies for your business. Contact us now for free, independent advice.

I am in love with revolutionaries
from Sojourner Truth to Kwame Nkrumah
stolen from Africa I have to recognize Ghana
from slaves to leaders like President Obama
Black is beautiful
I am in love with revolutionaries
I believe in Marcus Garvey
and Malcolm X said it best
changes must come from a state of unrest
Fighting is in my blood
I am in love with revolutionaries
Let me sing and blow your mind
the voices of Pearl Bailey and Nina Simone are divine
I identify their struggle with mine
History is in my song
I am in love with revolutionaries
Harry Belafonte is more than handsome
Injustice is the devil because Nat Turner told him so
With two hands to rise up a resounding NO
Freedom is in my destiny
I am in love with revolutionaries
Have you heard Angela and remixed it with Maya Angelou
The Earth moved when one little brown girl went to school
Words formed as weapons like Langston Hughes
Change power is in my voice
I am in love with revolutionaries
I can open my heart to the nations
and support my man like Michelle
helping the youth to thrive and live well
Love is in my being
I am in love with revolutionaries
I can march like Martin and be rich like Madam CJ
The influence of Du Bois is profound
Possibilities in everything from sports to space abound
There is strength in my mind, heart, and soul
I am in love with revolutionaries <3
From the Author
The past week has been filled with amazing history lessons for me. Beginning with a Lupe Fiasco Ustream talking about a biography written by Du Bois on John Brown, to a walk-through of the Brooklyn Museum, and I will fast forward to my purchase of the latest book by Walter Mosley on yesterday. No matter your race or religion it is important to know your history- know that you are not handicapped by past oppression or limited to current fads. I encourage everyone, whether you like this poem or not, to delve deeper into whatever you feel represents you. Expand your mind for a wealth of future opportunities.
I thought this was interesting:

Q. Greetings, all-knowing Answer Man: I was thinking about cell phones and how everyone has one now and is constantly on it. That led me to think about how it is also in vogue to "be green" — you know, conserving energy. CFL and LED bulbs, for instance. So just how much energy is used up in just the United States to keep all those phones charged?
— Connie Myers, of Fairview Heights
A. I know you're advised not to, but did you ever slip a load of wet clothes into the dryer, turn it on and leave to run errands?
By the time you returned home, your dryer would have used twice as much electricity as you do when you fully drain and recharge an iPhone once a day not for a week, not for a month, but for an entire year, according to the Electric Power Research Institute.
Doesn't seem possible does it? Considering how many people have their phones in chargers around my office and how it feels like they take forever to juice up, it would seem that with hundreds of millions of cell phones in the United States alone, they'd be leaving a carbon footprint as big as Sasquatch or Godzilla. Add to that the iPads, 400-inch plasma TVs, computers, and the rest of the electronic gear we have, and you might think we should be fearing brownouts every day. But according to a detailed 2013 study in Forbes, modern gizmos are energy sippers compared to washers, stoves, water heaters and air conditioners, which, relatively speaking, guzzle power like there's no tomorrow.
Mobile phones are a perfect example. It takes only 5.45 watt hours to charge an iPhone, so if you do that once a day for a year, you're talking about using two kilowatt hours. At, say, 12 cents a kilowatt hour (the figure Forbes used), you can yak on your phone all year for 25 cents worth of power. While collectively, yes, that's hundreds of millions of kilowatt hours across the country, individually you'll use more electricity if you leave a 100-watt light bulb on for a day.
Here's another shocker. Unlike most people, I suppose, I still have a VCR hooked to my TV even though I rarely use it. According to the Forbes article, that old clunker is drawing five watts per hour even when it's off and flashing 12:00 at me at a cost of $5.25 per year, which is more than 20 times the power used to recharge my phone.
The same is true for other devices, according to the Forbes article. Draining and recharging an iPad every other day will set you back $1.50 per year (24 kilowatt hours) and a laptop will cost you $8 per year (72 kilowatt hours), which means you can run these three essential devices for less than $10 per year energywise. More expensive would be LCD TVs, (five hours per day, 167 kilowatt hours, $20 per year), plasma TVs (360 kilowatt hours, $45), Xbox ($40) and desktop computers with modem and router ($46). As you can see, phone cost and energy use is a drop in the bucket.
So, even though they've become much more efficient, the energy hogs continue to be the standard appliances we've relied on for decades. For example, cooking something in a 350-degree standard electric oven for an hour will use two kilowatts of power (25 cents) while nuking something on high in the microwave for 15 minutes costs just 4 cents. Likewise, powering a new refrigerator costs $42 per year (down 75 percent since 1980), washers and dryers will run up an estimated $300 on the average family's power bill, water heaters come in at $600 and a 2.5-ton air conditioner will suck up more power in four minutes when it's running than your phone does all year.
I know many people grumbled when the government ordered the end of incandescent light bulbs, but today we're reaping the savings. Burning one 60-watt old-fashioned bulb for 10 hours a day gobbled up 220 kilowatt hours per year ($26), because half of all the power used by the light actually was converted into heat. By comparison, an equivalent 10-watt LED would consume a stingy 37 kilowatt hours for a total cost of $4.40 per year. So while you may suffer sticker shock over the cost of the bulbs, you obviously save big in the long run.
Bottom line: Experts say to forget the insignificant cell phone power usage and consider the energy you're wasting in "standby" or "vampire" power — the electricity modern appliances eat simply by being plugged in. Although new limits have been put in place, it is estimated that such phantom consumption can account for as much as 10 percent of a home's electrical use. Environmentalists suggest unplugging appliances when not in use or buying power strips that can be switched off.
Today's trivia
What is the only song in pop music history to reach No. 1 by the same artist in two separate runs up the Billboard chart?
Answer to Sunday's trivia: According to renowned historian David McCullough, we may owe the early development of the airplane to a hockey stick. According to his latest book, "The Wright Brothers," Wilbur Wright was badly injured as a teenager by a bully with a hockey stick. He had intended to go to Yale, possibly to study art history or architecture. Instead, he became a recluse, staying home and reading "voraciously" about the possibility of flight. In 1903, his 32-year-old brother Orville flew their experimental plane at Kitty Hawk, N.C. "What seemed to be one of the worst things to ever happen to any of the Wrights caused a swerve in their lives that was immensely beneficial to the world," McCullough said in an interview in this months' American History magazine. "It's a marvelous example of how truth can be both stranger than fiction and at times more powerful in its effect."

Before we move to the solutions, let's mention a few things that can cause this issue. As we said at the beginning, charging port that is full of dust and dirt, damaged cables and the software can cause this problem. But there are also other things, such as faulty wall outlet or one of the USB ports on your computer is not working. Sometimes, the problem can occur after the device got in touch with water. Some iPhone and iPad owners notice the error message after trying to charge their device using the charging set which is not Apple-certified. In some cases, iPhone won't charge after iOS update. We are going to talk about all these things and we are going to list the solutions that worked for many owners. iPhone 6S Battery Not Charging!!!
- A major reason for the iPhone 6s battery problem is, not using the apple certified power adapter and the lightning cable that comes along with the box. The battery is designed to work with a particular charger that gives the right voltage for lithium ion batteries to recharge.
- Another commonly found problem is the accumulation of dust on the charging port. Several times, the port gets clogged with dust, especially the lint found in jeans pockets and other debris such as dust and pollen.
- A less common but nevertheless an important reason is software crash. One must understand that connecting the phone to a wall socket does not necessarily mean charging should begin. In fact, the software installed on the phone along with the logic board determines whether that charging should happen.
- A lot of times the reason iPhone does not charge is because of a faulty lightening cable. Unlike the predecessor models of iPhone that used the 30 pin connector, lightening cables are much more prone to damages and fray with time as they are made of very thin materials. Along with this, using non-certified cables will also result in the phone not getting charged.
- Water and other liquids on the charging port (or anywhere inside the circuit board) also prevent the phone from charging. The presence of any fluids on the port will result in a short circuit thereby leading to iPhone not charging.
- Yet another plausible reason is that the battery has outlived its charging cycle. All batteries are designed to last a certain number of charging cycles. Once done, it is very unlikely that the iPhone 6s battery will charge.
Fix iPhone 6S Battery Won't Charge
Force Restart
We have mentioned that a software glitch can cause this problem. Also, if there was a software crash, the software becomes unresponsive which is why your iPhone or iPad won't charge. You know that any device can behave strangely at times, in which case the restart is the first thing many of us will try. On the other hand, we can be so frustrated when the problem occurs that we often forget the simple things that can do miracles. That is why force restart is something you should start with. It is an easy thing to do and yet very effective.
- Press and hold the Sleep/wake button and the Home button at the same time
- Keep holding the buttons at least 10 seconds
- Release the buttons when the Apple logo appears
- Try to charge your iPhone again.
If above process don't work
- Use the accessories provided in the box which include the lightning cable and power adapter. If they are damaged, it is always recommended to buy the original spares from your nearest Apple store or purchase Apple certified products from your retailer.
- To clean up the power port, one can try couple of tricks. Use a blower to remove the dust or manually blow sharply into it. In case of stubborn dust and lint, you may use a toothpick to carefully remove the debris inside the port.
- Updating your software should usually avoid such problems as Apple constantly tests its iOS and releases updates designed to give the phone more stability and solve issues related to the software that prevents the iPhone from charging.
- Replace the cable if found faded or damaged with an original lightning cable or an Apple certified equivalent.
- To double check if the adapter is causing the issue, plug in your iPhone 6s to a laptop and check whether it is working. In case the phone doesn't work, then the adapter must be replaced.
- It is best to avoid charging your phone during power fluctuations as this might lead to improper charging and thereby having the battery fail to flash or burnout.
- Ensure that the phone is dry before you charge. In case of any spills, wiping with a tissue is recommended and keeping the phone in vertical position should drain any fluid off the charging port.

Is there a way to charge my iPhone while it is turned off?
You may have tried to charge your iPhone while it was powered off only to have it turn itself on as soon as you plug it in to the USB cable or place it on the dock. As a result, it may have seemed that the iPhone insists on being turned on in order to charge.
As it turns out, this is not the case. Simply plug your iPhone in to charge while turned on (or off for that matter) and once it begins charging, power it down. If you power down after charging begins, the iPhone will remain turned off while still charging.

Turban, facecaps, scarfs and hats as little as they may seem have a way of making us become the cynosure of all eyes, hence you really cannot take away these accessories from fashion and style.
Whether you want to switch up your style, make a statement or you are just having a bad hair day, turbans always come to the rescue and have proven beyond reasonable doubt that they are the real MVP. This is just a few of the so many benefits that accrues with turbans.
The fact that turbans are highly revered by followers of the SIHK religion and notably worn by Indians in ancient times and how it has transcended into modern day and time and to places around the world just leaves me constantly in awe. All thanks to fashion, and I'm like " what else would fashion be up to in some five to ten years from now"
You won't be wrong if you think I would style the turban, as usual I go in the way of fashion and style without looking back. So when I came about writing this post, the pictures that kept coming to mind were those of hafymo' s. Yeah, she's one styleblogger I'm low key crushing on. Did I say low key, Mahn I have a mighty crush on her. I stalk her all day, everyday with no regrets, no regrets whatsoever.
She's the inspiration behind my look but I still did it my own way ( a little spark of Ada here and there). Hafymo is just one girl that has opened my eyes to the world of modest fashion. She just makes me feel that you can still look dashing even when covered up.
Well, this isn't about Hafymo it's about turbans but thinking about this, one word for hafymo is turban because she uses it all the time. Hafymo and her turban are like two peas in a pod, saying that they are like siamese twins wouldn't be going overboard, would it?? because they really do look inseparable…There Ada goes again, digressing.. whew?? *wipes sweat*
Alright cuties, be sure to light up my day by leaving me with your thoughts. I'd never trade this for anything in this world. Much love readers, XoXo..
That Turban Life
Turban, facecaps, scarfs and hats as little as they may seem have a way of making us become the cynosure of all eyes, hence you really cannot take away these accessories from fashion and style.

Dear colleagues,
Universidad Loyola Andalucía (Seville, Spain) is currently offering a PhD position starting in 2017 at the Engineering Department for multiscale multiphysical analysis of energy storage systems in renewable energies.
See the attached file for further information on the topic and the application process.
Hi all,
I'm trying to solve a frame structure in ABAQUS. I'm using 3D beam elements (B31) so that shear and bending stresses may appear. This is ok for an elastic analysis, but I also want to perform a failure analysis of this frame. Therefore, I'm trying to use the "concrete damaged plasticity" material in ABAQUS. But I've read in the manual I can't use B31 elements with this material.
Does anyone know how to combine the "concrete damaged plasticity" material in a 3D beam analysis? Any other suggestions?

|[jira] Commented: (DERBY-3703) Make it possible to build the JSR169 support with the jdk1.4 libraries
|Wed, 04 Jun 2008 15:41:45 GMT
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3703?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12602323#action_12602323 ] Rick Hillegas commented on DERBY-3703: -------------------------------------- Concerning the first patch: I can't prove that there won't be linkage errors on some small platform vm. For modern vms which resolve references lazily, I think there would not be a problem. However, a problem could occur on an old vm which resolves references eagerly. See paragraph 2 in this section of the VM spec: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jvms/second_edition/html/Concepts.doc.html#22574 So Dan's objection stands. I would like to clarify the proposals around creating dummy jar files for the small platform api: 1) I think that if we go to the trouble of creating dummy sources to compile against, then we should check those sources into Derby's codeline and build them as part of the normal Derby build. I would propose putting them in the following directories unless someone has a better idea: java/build/jsr169/java/sql java/build/jsr169/javax/sql 2) I just want to clarify that we are only talking about dummy sources for the jsr169 api (java.sql and javax.sql) and not dummy sources for the entire CDC api. > Make it possible to build the JSR169 support with the jdk1.4 libraries > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-3703 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3703 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Build tools > Reporter: Rick Hillegas > Attachments: derby-3703-01-aa-moveJdbc3methods.diff, derby-3703-01-aa-moveJdbc3methods.diff > > > It would be good to simplify the Derby build so that the whole product could be built out-of-the-box just from what's checked into the Derby repository.
