Number-one best-selling author Janet Evanovich teams up with award-winning author Dorien Kelly to deliver a sparkling novel of romantic suspense, small-town antics, secretive sabotage, and lots and lots of beer.
Kate Appleton needs a job. Her husband has left her, she's been fired from her position as a magazine editor, and the only place she wants to go is to her parents' summer house, The Nutshell, in Keene's Harbor, Michigan. Kate's plan is to turn The Nutshell into a Bed and Breakfast. Problem is, she needs cash, and the only job she can land is less than savory.
Matt Culhane wants Kate to spy on his brewery employees. Someone has been sabotaging his company, and Kate is just new enough in town that she can insert herself into Culhane's business and snoop around for him. If Kate finds the culprit, Matt will pay her a $20,000 bonus. Needless to say, Kate is highly motivated. But several problems present themselves. Kate despises beer. No one seems to trust her. And she is falling hard for her boss. Can these two smoke out a saboteur, save Kate's family home, and keep a killer from closing in... all while resisting their undeniable attraction to one another?
Filled with humor, heart, and loveable characters, Love in a Nutshell is delicious fun.
©2011 The Gus Group, LLC. (P)2012 Macmillan Audio
Yes!! I Enjoyed this book! It had a really cute story with likeable characters! It had some of Janet usual humor with a strong female lead and a sexy guy!
Yes! I love her acting when she reads! She does a great job! I love her when she reads Stephanie plum too!
Beer, Sexiness, and Mystery ;)
"Cute story, hard to listen"
The story was fun, the characters likeable, nice summer read... but I wish I had purchased the actual book. I found the narrator's delivery very annoying. Okay, now I'm being picky, but I found her to be too breathy, drawing out the last syllable of the last word of most every sentence. I couldn't get past it.
"Like an Ice Cream Sundae"
Just like an ice cream sundae, which is yummy to taste but not very nutritious, this book is just fun. It's like a brain vacation! If you're looking for something deep and challenging, this is not the book for you! I enjoyed the characters and the story was good. I really like the narrator. I'm used to her in the Stephanie Plum novels. She's great! Again, if you're looking for dessert, get this book and have fun!
"Typical Evanovich"
It moved along and was simple and relaxing.
She is the best!! The way she changes her voices for the different characters makes listening enjoyable and not mundane. I listen while driving so monotone voices would put me to sleep. She is constantly changing the voices.
When I clean, drive or exercise I listen to romance. The steamier the better but it must have a great story as well!
"Classic Janet Evonivich"
This type of book is a true classic! I loved it! There are only two things this book needed.... 1) Maybe a little more romance scenes, I felt a little bummed that they never really got together. 2) it needed to be longer!!! :) I really do recommend this book to anyone that likes funny cut romance stories without any smut. It was very enjoyable.
~Bead Goddess Mary~
"Janet Evanovich always delivers!!"
This book is a winner, a new beginning, love story, mystery, & humor all wrapped up in an excellent presentation!! I loved listening while designing some jewelry :-)
Kris in Cali
"Love this narrator!"
Really enjoy these books when I want something cute and lighthearted. Janet E is great for that type of listen
"Okay but could have been made better by the reader"
Fun, Light, Easy story line.
The relationship between the two main characters.
The relationship between the lead female character and her family. Especially her Mother.
I think that I would have appreciated the female lead character more if she had been read with a bit more grit in her words. I would have liked for her to have sounded more self assured. I guess I was looking for a Stephanie Plum type. This character almost had it, just not quite.
Read more reviews before making purchases
"not so great"
I finished it but my mind often wondered when listening I was glad when I finished and could start something new and more interesting
"Great, easy listen for a long drive!"
Janet Evanovich is always a favorite when I have a long drive. She is fun and entertaining with just enough suspense that you can concentrate. But, the really kicker is Lorelei King who does most of Janet's books and she is terrific. Her inflections and interpretations of the books are spot on! Pick one up and listen...they are also great on walks and you will walk a little longer because you will want to listen longer...have fun!
Of course! I walk and drive a lot and they are fun and entertaining!
Kate - has a great outlook on herself and her situation.
No...that's what's nice for driving or walking.

Warning:dont Waste Your MoneyOk so I'm one of those people that, if I really really want to try something all ignore the bad reviews and say maybe it will work for me.. But for this product I was soooooooo wrong. Looked pretty good at first, however it has the shineyness of a family dollar barbie dolls 5 cent hair. After just 3 uses the hair had already become matted. I followed the instructions to the "T" but after just 2 weeks the clip in looks like a knotty nappy "hot mess"!!! As for the good reviews I'm 100% sure that they've only had the extensions for less than a week, because they too will find out what a cheap piece of crap these extensions are. Like the rest of you ladies I wanted nice long extensions at a good price but instead I ended up with a notty nappy piece of crap that I can't even wear that I spent freakin 75 bucks on. PPPPPPPLLLLLLLEASSSE do not be fooled and do not waste your money. I wish Jessica Simpson herself could be told what a piece of crap this thing is.Dec 21, 2009Taylor / NOrth Carolina

3 Months Is The LimitThese extensions are good for a person just starting to wear extensions. They are pretty awesome when they're brand new. They add a lot of volume and length for people who have shorter hair. With the right color match, they're completely undetectable. I wear them every single day. However, I'm almost at the 3 month mark for owning mine, and they look AWFUL. Frizzy, knotted, damaged, and not soft. I don't know what the heck happened. I washed them minimally, used leave-in conditioner for synthetic hair, didn't use heat on them, and never brushed them out. They say the lifetime of these extensions is 3 months, and I think that's pushing it a little. I'd say they look alright for 2 months, and then they look terrible after that. I'd recommend these extensions for special occasions; NOT for everyday use! Save up and go for human hair for everyday usage.Dec 2, 2009Ann

Amazing!!!!!Hi, i bought the buttered toast synthetic 23" hair extensions, they were fantastic. They were really shiny and look unnatural at first so i sprayed them lightly with hair spray and luckily, after a few wears, they dulled down. These are deffo worth the cost... no other extensions can beat them!!!!!Nov 23, 2009Lydia

SurprisedI had read many reviews on these extensions, some good and others bad, but thought i'd give them a go, seeming as my hair was so short and wanted long hair again. [ i brought the 23" wave ] Once out the pack i was a bit worried that they were too thin and wouldnt be enough for my hair to give a realistic effect, but after putting them in ( which took literally a minute, so quick and easy) i was really pleased with the results! my hair is extremely short as you will see in my before picture. Although the hair is synthetic it is still good qaulity - understandably not as good as real hair would be but good enough. i've only had them one day so can't comment on how long the quality lasts, but on first impressions i am really pleased! Definately give them a go!Nov 15, 2009Chloe / United Kindom

Don't Waste Your MoneyOkay...I must admit..they do look really nice on some..however I would rather at this point just go for the clip in human hair extensions. The only good thing about this product was experimenting for human hair clip in's. This product is super shiny compared to your natural hair and people can tell. I must have a small head for it seems that the cap does not fit well at all..guess I need to play with it some more. I would rather pay $$$'s and get a real good product than this child play's hair that reminds me of Barbie...my husband said..please go get some real ones done..they look awful. Enough said...wasted money!Oct 8, 2009Stacie / Atlanta, Georgia USA

Gorgeous!This extension piece was a little too shiny out of the package, but I sprinkled some baby powder on it, shook it around, and now it looks perfect! I purchased Midnight Brown, so I can't say if this method will work as well on blonde hues. As long as you put enough hair on top of the hair extension, it will cover the top strip really well. It looks gorgeous when it's on. It adds tons of volume, and also length for me. No one realized that my hair had an extension piece in it. I'm going to wear this piece everyday, so I will be purchasing more! I haven't washed my piece yet, but gently running your fingers through it helps with tangles and flyaway hairs. Water soluble hair spray can also be used on these pieces to keep flyaways down. I haven't tried any other hair extension pieces before, so I don't really have anything to compare them to, but I absolutely love them and recommend this particular length and texture to anyone.Aug 23, 2009AnneHAIR TYPERelaxed Hair

Great For Special Occasion!I wore these to my ball, or prom you might say! It was so perfect for a new look, and the color was perfect! The only thing that doesn't make them 100% is that they are a bit too shiny for people with blonde hair, because they're curly you couldn't tell too much because when you curl your natural hair it does look more shiny! So that's an up side. Also the curls dropped a bit, and if you're going to be heavely styling it, like mine it's most likely you won't be able to re use it.. But I still absoloutly love how they looked and was exactly what I wanted because I wanted :)Aug 23, 2009Elsie / New Zealand

I Have Several!!!!I love this product. Ok so I am an overweight woman with curly hair. It's terrible. it makes me look about 30 pounds heavier when it's curly because it kinks up and shortens. Most everyone knows that big girls dont work the short do's. I can straighten it and that gives it a little more legnth but its never been past my shoulder because (god forbid) I dye my hair about every four months. Not to mention the curls make it o tangly so the ends always break off making it seem like my hair just doesnt grow. So I stumble across this product. Wow. Not only am I pleased. I have several. I finally have the length I want. Oh and people on here are saying 'too shiny' about the synthetic. Yes of course it is shiny. Too shiny the first couple wears only. No one can tell I have it in, except for the people who know me well of course and I come right out with it. Why not, it's just another accessory. So here is a tip. Wear it around the house a few times. It will lose it's synthetic shine and look more natural. Also, the inside of it (behind your neck) gets super tangled after you wear it for more than four or five hours. There is some kind of formula you can buy to detangle it. I made the mistake of brushing the tangle. It works fine but it ruins the extension over time. Its ok to brush it, just not the tangles. But overall. I'd give the extensions a nine. They are awesome. I can finally have long hair. So comfy, not noticeable and seriously confidence boosting.Aug 23, 2009Haley

Not Happy :0(Initially I bought Jessica Simpson synthetic hair extensions worth £70. I wore them a fair amount however I noticed that they got worn out so quickly after buying 2 sets I decided to invest into the human Jessica Simpson hair extensions and paid £300 in the hope that this wonât happen to real hair. However, after the first week of wearing them they became all tangle and dry. At the back of my head a lump of dry hair started forming.Regardless matter how much I brushed them, this always happened. Initially I was worried and seeked advice from the store where they sold me the after care kit in order to maintain them properly. I can safely say that no improvement has been made and that they are now looking really shabby and horrible. I am very disappointed as I really loved how they made my hair look. I just wish that I kept the receipt....:0(Aug 11, 2009Sanya / LondonHAIR TYPERelaxed Hair

Great ItemIve tried extensions in the past 5yrs, and nothing has compared to this product. Ive never been a fan of clip on extensions, just the thought of it slipping off is unbearable! But this item has proved me wrong! its sturdy, and the grip is tight (without tugging on your hair). Ive worn it out a few times, and theres never been a problem. I love how natural the extensions look! Ive noticed a few of my extensions in the past didnt have highlights in them, to blend it in with your natural hair. These extensions blends so well, no one can tell that its fake. One of the other things I was worried about when ordering this product was that it might be too brassy..a cheap synthetic texture. Again, I was wrong! it has the same texture as someone with fine hair, not brassy, but not too "barbie" like. I personally bought this item for fullness, and it gave me exactly what Ive asked for and more! My friends/coworkers love it on me, and didnt even noticed that it was extensions! I truly recommend this product. Hope I helped those of you who are iffy about purchasing this item :). Its worth the $$$.Dec 29, 2008Pang / Minneapolis,Minnesota

It's the final round of regular-season action in Super Rugby with just two sides – the Stormers and Chiefs – guaranteed a play-off berth.
It's the final round of regular-season action in Super Rugby with just two sides – the Stormers and Chiefs – guaranteed a play-off berth.
That leaves eight teams battling it out for a place in the top six, which means there will be two very disappointed sides when Round 18 comes to an end after the final whistle is blown in Pretoria.
Six matches, all of them crucial in determining which teams will clinch the remaining wildcard spots, so lets get to it!
Brumbies v Blues
Canberra Stadium
One point on Saturday will be enough to ensure the Brumbies win the Australian Conference and secure a spot in the play-offs – and thus end an eight-year drought – but it's far from a done deal against a resurgent Blues team.
This weekend will be a true test of not only the Brumbies' nerves but their play-off credentials as they face a team that have finally started to gel.
Indeed the Blues have averaged nearly 30 points per game in their last three starts. Their revival is thanks in no small part to the return of some injured players meaning others have been able to play in their preferred positions. That trends is set to continue as Charlie Faumuina's return means the Blues have been able to field their full-strength front row for just the third time this season.
A win for the Blues should see them rise above the Rebels into 11th position – not exactly what they were hoping for at the start of the year, but significantly better than what was feared a few weeks ago.
But the visitors' preparations have been disrupted by the interview process for the Blues head coach job for next year as Pat Lam fights to keep his job. Lam will stay behind to interview for his position on Friday along with the other candidates, then catch a later flight to rejoin the team in Canberra.
"It can't be advantageous to have your coach staying behind and not flying over with the team, and obviously the uncertainty," said Brumbies coach Jake White on Thursday.
The hosts won't have to worry about other team's result as they take the field before the Reds, who need the Brumbies to lose and then must hammer the Waratahs to claim top spot in the Aussie conference.
"The thing we've got in our favour this week is we play first," added White.
"Literally by the time the final whistle goes, we'll have an understanding of where we are."
Keep an eye on the battle between Ma'a Nonu and Pat McCabe, who could very well face off again a month from now in the first Bledisloe Cup and Rugby Championship clash of the year.
The last time these teams met, back in 2010, the Blues won 39-34 at Eden Park
Prediction: The hosts have managed to pick up at least one tournament point in every game of the season so far and that's all they need. We reckon they'll do a bit better though. Brumbies by six points.
The teams:
Brumbies: 15 Jesse Mogg, 14 Henry Speight, 13 Andrew Smith, 12 Pat McCabe, 11 Joe Tomane, 10 Zack Holmes, 9 Nic White, 8 Ben Mowen (c), 7 Michael Hooper, 6 Peter Kimlin, 5 Sam Carter, 4 Scott Fardy, 3 Dan Palmer, 2 Stephen Moore, 1 Ben Alexander.
Replacements: 16 Anthony Hegarty, 17 Ruaidhri Murphy, 18 Leon Power, 19 Fotu Auelua, 20 Ian Prior, 21 Tevita Kuridrani, 22 Robbie Coleman.
Blues: 15 Charles Piutau, 14 Lachie Munro, 13 Francis Saili, 12 Ma'a Nonu, 11 Hadleigh Parkes, 10 Michael Hobbs, 9 Piri Weepu, 8 Luke Braid, 7 Daniel Braid, 6 Chris Lowrey, 5 Steven Luatua, 4 Liaki Moli, 3 Charlie Faumuina, 2 Keven Mealamu (c), 1 Tony Woodcock.
Replacements: 16 Tom McCartney, 17 Tevita Mailau, 18 Andrew Van der Heijden, 19 Peter Saili, 20 Alby Mathewson, 21 Orene Ai'i, 22 Sherwin Stowers.
Referee: Jonathon White (New Zealand)
Crusaders v Western Force
It is a strange situation for the Crusaders this week as they cannot finish any better in the standings but could end up missing the knockout stages.
Standing in their path is not the toughest proposition as the Force are currently sitting in fourteenth spot.
Therefore the majority are expecting nothing but a home victory and we can see no reason to go against the grain if the weather is kind.
Coach Todd Blackadder will be looking for more of the same from his men who – judging from last week's success in Hamilton – seem to be hitting form. That win over the Chiefs left their fate in their own hands and if they can seal home advantage for next week, the top two will be keen to miss them.
If the hosts can repeat their clinical and knockout-like performance of Round 17 then surely the Force will have no answer to what is coming at them.
The Crusaders' opponents will carry plenty of emotion into this match as they bid farewell to Super Rugby's most-capped player, Nathan Sharpe. While it will be his 162nd and last in this competition, injury to James Horwill means he will carry on for Australia in the Rugby Championship. He should receive a warm welcome and goodbye in Christchurch.
Therefore the Force must have already been thinking about next term when they're without their stalwart and possibly David Pocock, as the rumour mill continues to turn in Australia's press. Whether he will go over to Canberra to take the jersey of soon-to-be Waratah Michael Hooper remains a mystery.
But there is no mystery about where this result at AMI Stadium is heading as we see the likes of Israel Dagg and Zac Guildford thriving behind a pack that is set to go forward and a half-back duo that have been there, seen it and done it. It could be a long evening for the struggling Western Force.
Prediction: No upsets here. Crusaders by 25!
The teams:

Slumpbustin'... Or just busts
Cam Davie
January 25 2011 09:19AM
Pie in the face. Feels like that a lot of nights, doesn't Mason?
The Vancouver Canucks took care of some business last night, as they laid a 7-1 spanking on the Dallas Stars. More importantly though, last night saw the end come to some serious goal droughts.
But despite the slumpbustin', three players are still under a lot of scrutiny. Well, it's my scrutiny, but still...
Last night, the Canucks finally got what they had been needing for over 10 games... Balanced scoring. All seven goals came from seven different players. In fact, 14 players got at least a point last night. Now THAT'S balance. And that's the Canucks have been sorely missing over this losing stretch.
While regular, recent contributors like Ryan Kesler, Henrik Sedin and Christian Ehrhoff all hit the back of the net, so did some Canucks that hadn't turned on the red light in quite some time.
Alex Burrows, Mason Raymond, Dan Hamhuis and Mikael Samuelsson all ended significant goal-scoring slumps. Burrows and Samuelsson both had terrific games offensively, while Hamhuis was (and has been all year) solid again on the blue line.
Mason Raymond was very lucky to get credit for his goal. In fact, his two-point performance was easily the most anonymous two-point game I've seen all season. It's pretty debatable whether that puck even touched him, and he certainly didn't knowingly redirect the puck. Frankly, I don't think Raymond has really broken any slumps. Until he scores by actually directing a puck into the back of the net on purpose, I'll consider him still slumping. Maybe last night's fluky tally was the good bounce that he needed. Because he really needed it. Since returning from a hand injury earlier this year, Raymond's play has regressed to its former state from 2 to 3 seasons ago. Sure, his skating and speed are as good as ever. However, he looks rushed and nervous whenever he gets a chance to score. What I find strange about this is that he scored one of the Canucks season-highlight goals in the game in Long Island, with his spinorama shootout goal against the Islanders. He laid down that ridiculous move when he had the spotlight entirely focused on him. So I'm confused by Raymond, because in the regular run of play, he just seems to get a massive swarm of butterflies. The Canucks need Raymond to start scoring again. Ryan Kesler desperately needs a winger to help him out. Remember when Mason Raymond had 25 goals last year? Because I'm starting to forget that.
Another point slump that was "bumped" last night was Raffi Torres picking up an assist. Granted Torres is tied for third in goals with 11 but, to quote Tony Gallagher "he's like a hologram out there". And not just last night. Every night. And without the goals, he's hurting the team. He's third on the Canucks in PIMs, and is tied for 3rd-to-last in plus/minus at -3. Keep in mind that he also one of only 4 active players who are below 0 in plus-minus. (The others are Volpatti and Tanev at -1 and Glass at -4). If Torres isn't going to, or isn't able to, contribute offensively, then he had better be helping defensively or playing physically. Well he isn't helping his team defensively as the PIMs and plus/minus prove. As for hitting, Torres is 7th on the team in hits, which is decent but it isn't affording him a pass on his lack of points. As for some of his other stats, Torres is just kind of meandering in the middle of the pack. Out of sight, out of mind. He has only 9 blocked shots. To put that into perspective, Alex Bolduc (he of only 19 GP) has 8 blocked shots. He's 9th in giveaways with 18, and 11th in takeaways with 19. So he's a +1 in giveaways vs takeaways. Again, middle of the road... But here's Torres' biggest problem: he's 13th in shots (72) on the team, yet he's tied for third with 11 goals. That's 11 goals on 72 shots, good for 15.3%. That's 4th on the team. So Raffi Torres... if you want to break your goal scoring slump, SHOOT THE PUCK.
Lastly on the point parade was Jeff Tambellini. While everyone was singing his praises when he was scoring, he has been arguably the Canucks most invisible forward in the last 10 games. His one assist last night came on the last goal, a power play marker by Hamhuis, when the game was already well out of reach. The danger for Tambellini is he's now getting close to being sent back down to Manitoba, in favour of one of the Moose who is looking for a shot with the big club. While I like Tambellini's long-term upside, he has the most to lose this season if he doesn't start potting some points on a consistent basis. If he doesn't start, he could very likely be sent down and it would be hard to imagine him being called back up if his replacement makes the most of his opportunity.
Fourteen Canucks skaters got at least one point last night. That leaves Kevin Bieksa, Tanner Glass, Manny Malhotra and Jannik Hansen. There is no panic with any of these players not hitting the score sheet, with the possible exception of Malhotra. But Malhotra is helping the Canucks in so many other ways, specifically in faceoffs, that a lack of scoring isn't as big of a concern as it is with Raymond, Tambellini or Torres.
So for Mason Raymond, Raffi Torres and Jeff Tambellini, they have one more game before almost a week off for the All-Star break. Will the time off help them reset and get focused again? Or will it sap any energy remaining and finally be the catalyst for a serious move?
We'll find out next week.
At least Raymond was in front of the net for his "goal". That's where he needs to be - when he's playing out on the perimeter he's not helping anyone. That was a good sign.

the original zip format was not designed to be compatible with UTF8 characters. Unfortunately most programs and libraries implement it differently. Please try to use standard zip extraction instead of you current software (is it 7zip?) or try to use newer version.
I tested it with Winrar 3.93, Winzip 14.5, 7-zip 4.65 and 7-zip 9.17 beta. I have also tested it with REDHAT unzip utility.
The problem remains.
This is a file created using Download all assignments as a zip function.
It contains the Filename in Greek with the problematic encoding.
I have tested it with windows zip (Windows 7). Still the same.
I will check it on OS X as well and get back to you.
I have tested it on OS X and everything is fine.
The problem is that most users use windows and one of the above popular unzip utilities.
I'm pretty sure this is a php (-libzip) bug, see:
I have no such problems when using zip/unzip on linux from the command line

Same problem with GNU/Linux OS.
Our language (Catalan/Spanish) do use latin characters, but with accented letters. When unzipping zipped assignments all student names with accented letters are translated as "+?", where "?" is an unknown character. This leads to files that cannot be well managed by GUI tools (cannot be deleted or renamed, as internal routines doesn't handle well this unknown character).
The only solution is to manage them from console, but it's a pain.
I met the same problem for Chinese characters.
I tried change the default encoding of zip from utf-8 to gbk in moodle code. The downloaded zip can be correctly extracted in Windows by winrar and 7-zip. But no matter which encoding is using, it can not be extracted correctly in Ubuntu/CentOS/Debian.
I use php 5.2.17.
No update, the zip extraction apps are slowly improving, unfortunately PHP extension does not support unicode yet.
Asaf posted a PHP patch above which I think is the same one on that PHP bug if you want to compile your own version of PHP to fix this.
Hi all! I'm experiencing the same problem with Hungarian names, I'm using 2.1.1+ (Build: 20110817) moodle, with Apache/2.2.16 (Debian) DAV/2 mod_ssl/2.2.16 OpenSSL/0.9.8o mod_chroot/0.5 PHP 5.3.3-7+squeeze3 with Suhosin-Patch. Is there any possible sollution other then patching and recompiling php?
Hi Tamás,
I have a patch at https://github.com/hit-moodle/moodle/commit/250e76bc4915cfb1e3868357447a08d690b63cd8
If the client OS is Windows, it will convert all pathnames and filenames into GBK charset so that the zip can be unzipped properly in Windows. But it will not affect the generating of moodle backup file.
GBK is the default charset of Windows Chinese version. Just simply change it to your charset.
I improved my previous patch. Now, it is at https://github.com/hit-moodle/moodle/commit/bb05fc75d4c02dae02567be36f9e46f1263984b0
The new patch modified the underlying zip/unzip function of moodle. It uses localewincharset defined in lang files as default zip charset if browser is running under Windows. So windows users can zip and unzip freely and correctly.
repo url: git://github.com/hit-moodle/moodle.git
MDL-24928_zip_for_windows (based on MOODLE_21_STABLE)
Tested it but it's not working. The greek characters in zip are still messed up.
Hi, Christos
You must choose greek as your moodle site language and access the site in Windows.
Greek is the selected language. And i access the site from a windows 7 machine.
What is the language code of greek? (language code is something like en_us)
el_GR is the normal code but in /usr/moodledata/lang i see el_utf8 and el_utf8_local
No idea.....the el lang packed defined localewincharset as WINDOWS-1253. If it is right, the patch should work.
For me, I use zh_cn and localewincharset is CP936. Works well, no matter zip or unzip
Is there a function i can insert to printout the $wincharset variable? Just to check the value( if it is not empty).
save the following code to MOODLEROOT/t.php
print_string('localewincharset', 'langconfig');
Then access http://yoursite.com/t.php
I tested it with all Greek charsets CP1253, ISO-8859-7, WINDOWS-1253,ibm869.
Unfortunatelly nothing works.
Any other ideas?
The localewincharset=WINDOWS-1253
I have no ideas. Can you pack a zip in windows and send it to email@example.com ? I will test it
I confirm this problem on Moodle 2.1.2 and Czech names in ZIP archive.
I opened
MDL-30436, but was closed because it is related with this one.
I have a problem with unzipping zip files that contain files with special characters in their names.
When I try to unzip such a zip file, it ignores the files that have special characters (do not unzip those files) and unzips only the others (it means that no weird characters are added in original filenames to replace accentuated ones).
The same occurs if the zip file has folders with special characters - this folders are not created, neither are all the files that it contains (wether having special characters or not).
I have Moodle on a LAMP server (CentOS 6 - 64bit), but created files with 7-zip and Windows zip function (Windows 7 machine). My language is Portuguese.
Moodle version is 2.1.2
as mentioned above - this is a bug with PHP - not really "Moodle"
if you are able to compile your own version of PHP there is a patch above that works but so far no-one has found a way to fix this by modifying Moodle code.
Well, Moodle can convert filenames into 7-bit ASCII, or can use e. g. 7-ZIP instead of old ZIP, or can use username with numbers (e. g. user_1.doc, user_2.xls...) instead of first and last name.
not now it can't - unless someone writes a patch to change zip handing in 2.x - the only known workaround atm is to compile your own PHP with the patch above.
we can't use usernames as these are "private" bits of information as required in many different organisations.(and usernames can contain utf8 chars anyway can't they?)
I think it was Petr who removed the ability to use a system level zip via system paths in 2.0 - Petr would it be hard to add this back?
In my opinion, this is a problem nature born with zip. But moodle can do something to improve it.
Zip format born too early to meet the charset problem. So it never and ever thinks about the charset of filename and pathname. 7z and rar include charset info in archive files so that they can be unpacked no matter local charset, but zip does not contain such info. Therefore, for example, if I make a zip contains Chinese filenames on Windows (using gbk charset), it can not unzipped properly on Linux (using UTF8), and vice verse. I have tried many zip/unzip programs and all of them have this problem.
If users can tell the unzip program which charsets are using in zip file and local system, the unzip program can do the conversion of encoding and solve the problem. But unfortunately, as I know there are no such unzip programs.
I have deeply read moodle codes related with zip/unzip. The underlying library does consider charset but does not expose it (assume UTF8 everywhere). To prove that the changing of default charset of zip library can solve this problem, I made a patch: https://github.com/hit-moodle/moodle/commit/bb05fc75d4c02dae02567be36f9e46f1263984b0
It uses localewincharset defined in lang files as default zip charset if browser is running under Windows. So windows users can zip and unzip freely and correctly. I have applied this patch on my production site for several months and it works well at least for my users. Our localwincharset is gbk (Chinese). But Christos Rodosthenous reported that it does not work for greek.
I am not so optimistic about this issue, unfortunately.
A very long time ago, on a distant planet (RedHat Bugzilla) we tried to solve this issue at the zip application/library level : https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=225576
We have patched the zip/unzip software and libs to support a trick for converting Hebrew filenames
But, for it to work... Windows users had to upgrade (compile) there zip/unzip software too, to enjoy the Trick.
There are two issues for this on the php bugzilla:
Not sure where it stands on their priority list and if they can even solve this.
Eventually and for the time being, we are using a deprecated wrapper to the type3 lib after reading: http://docs.moodle.org/dev/UTF-8_scripts
I have added the following two lines:
$textlib = textlib_get_instance();
$localname = $textlib->specialtoascii($localname );
to the function : "public function add_file_from_pathname($localname, $pathname)"
inside : moodle/lib/filestorage/zip_archive.php
line 283~
and now it looks like this:
$textlib = textlib_get_instance();
$localname = $textlib->specialtoascii($localname );
return $this->za->addFile($pathname, $localname );
Now, we are getting English characters instead of Hebrew characters in the filenames
so this workaround is, relatively, a solution.
Until we move from zip to some other international compression standard that support Unicode.
Hello, please try patch from
MDL-33753, it should deal with utf-8 characters a lot better. If you find something that does not work please send me a small test archives together with a screenshot of file names inside it, I can try to add more heuristics to deal with non-standard encodings.
Please take a look at
MDL-33068. I've rebesed select encoding on unzip interface on latest branches
Hello, this was confirmed to be working fine in latest Moodle 2.4, thanks for the report.

Always test a swatch first if you are going to care for your wool fabrics at home rather than using a drycleaner. Many of the fine wools Mood sells online and in-store have already been "sponged," or preshrunk, but you can preshrink your wool if necessary. Mood recommends taking your uncut wool fabric to the drycleaners and asking them to steam it for you, which will safely preshrink it more effectively than you can using home methods. Mood strongly recommends test-laundering a swatch, if you plan to wash your garment or home furnishings yourself.

Special Collections Premiere ReceptionEvent Details: 4:00 p.m., September 12, Pius XII Memorial Library
Saint Louis University Libraries Special Collections will present "(Please Don't) Steal This Poster," an exhibition of letterpress prints by the Firecracker Press for the Billiken Club. The exhibition will open with a premiere at 4 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 12, in the second floor gallery of Pius XII Memorial Library, and run until Tuesday, Dec. 31.
The premiere event will include a printing demonstration by the Firecracker Press and live music by Manual Feed.
The Billiken Club posters represent the convergence of two different artistic spheres — the visual and the musical — at a time when St. Louis was home to energetic and creative members of both. Produced by the Firecracker Press as color woodcuts, the posters are also both art prints and advertising; they are graphically striking while at the same time powerfully evocative of the bands they advertised.
From the outset, the intent of the Billiken Club posters was to provide an artifact of the experience as much as to advertise. The Billiken Club Posters frequently garnered critical acclaim, as well as popular attention. The 2010-2011 series of prints won an American Institute of Graphic Arts Award of Merit in 2010, and The Riverfront Times named the Times New Viking poster their "Best Concert Poster of 2011."
The Billiken Club posters were highly prized by enthusiasts of printmaking, local music and Saint Louis University. A Billiken Club poster created by The Firecracker Press could usually be expected to remain in place one to two weeks before being stolen.
For more information about the exhibition, call 314-977-3109 or visit the Special Collections website.

Countries Adopt Manila Declaration to Strengthen Protection of Global Marine Environment27/
Manila/Nairobi, 27 January 2011 - Representatives from 65 countries have agreed to step up efforts to protect the world's oceans from land-based activities, while underlining the central role played by the marine environment in a transition to a low carbon, resource-efficient green economy. The Manila Declaration was adopted at the Third Intergovernmental Review Meeting (IGR-3) on the Implementation of the Global Programme of Action for the Protection of the Marine Environment from Land-based Activities (GPA), hosted by the Government of the Philippines and organized by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). The event brought together environment ministers, marine scientists, NGOs, representatives of financial institutions and other organizations, with the aim of delivering new policies and actions to improve the sustainable management of oceans and coasts. Under the Manila Declaration, signatories reaffirmed their commitment to develop policies to reduce and control wastewater, marine litter and pollution from fertilizers.The agreement contains a total of 16 provisions focusing on actions to be taken between 2012 and 2016 at international, regional and local levels. Among these is a call for countries to develop guidance and policies on the sustainable use of nutrients to improve the efficiency of fertilizers such as nitrogen or phosphorous. This would bring economic benefits for farmers, while mitigating negative environmental impacts such as algal blooms caused by agricultural run-off. "The Manila Declaration signals a new way forward for all of us," said UNEP Deputy Executive Director Amina Mohamed, who led the UNEP delegation at the conference. "The UN Conference on Sustainable Development (Rio+20) in June is an excellent opportunity to take the Manila Declaration to a global audience and initiate action to reduce the impact of land-based activities on the marine environment. It is essential that we sustain our momentum to achieve on-the-ground improvements in the health of ocean and coastal ecosystems, for which the continued and co-ordinated effort of the international community is vital," added Ms. Mohamed. The recommendations in the Manila Declaration focus on furthering the implementation of the Global Programme of Action for the Protection of the Marine Environment (GPA), which is hosted by UNEP. The GPA - the only global initiative directly addressing the connectivity between terrestrial, freshwater, coastal and marine ecosystems - targets major threats to the health, productivity and biodiversity of the marine and coastal environment which result from human activities on land. "I strongly believe that what transpired the past four days is a giant leap forward towards the improvement of our coastal and marine environment," said Secretary of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources of the Philippines, Ramon J. P. Paje."[The Manila Declaration] will provide us with directions on our way towards the development of our coastal and marine environment within the prism of a green economy", added Secretary Paje. Signatories to the Manila Declaration underlined the importance of healthy oceans and coasts in supporting livelihoods and food security - especially in Small Island Developing States. The Declaration calls for collaborative action to reduce the vulnerability of coastal communities to climate change and to tackle biodiversity loss, persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and ocean acidification resulting land-based activities. Prior to the signing of the declaration, UNEP and partners launched the Green Economy in a Blue World report, which outlines pathways for a green economy transition across six marine-based economic sectors.The report argues that the health and productivity of marine and coastal ecosystems, which are currently in decline around the globe, can be boosted by shifting to a more sustainable economic paradigm that taps their natural potential - from generating renewable energy and promoting eco-tourism, to sustainable fisheries and transport.Recommendations include targeted financial support from governments for marine-based renewable energy projects (wind and wave power) in order to harness the considerable opportunities for green job creation in the sector.

Weak material, poorly presented. Clumsy interaction with audience members and self indulgence if ever I saw it. People with issues should pay someone else to listen to them, not the other way round.
Denis Krasnov - 09/07/2009
Seeing one of the previews left me convinced that Sanderson's show is gonna be a highlight of the fringe 2009. Not only he is one of naturally most talented, witty and charismatic comedians on the circuit, but also the amount of work he puts into the preparation is unprecedented. He's done something like 50 gigs in Australia and a dozen of London previews. I've seen one and it's fantastic. The most amazing thing is that the show doesn't stop at the hour you watch at the venue but extends all over the fringe to further surprise and astonish you. Sanderson is full of gusto, his audience skills are great. He chooses the topics that are original and thought-provoking. Go see it ! And wear a corset!

Tambellini Press Conference Live Blog (Updated!)
Jonathan Willis
April 15 2009 11:51AM
Steve Tambellini is giving a press conference at 12:00. Video is available at the Oilers official site . This is the official OilersNation live blog for the conference, and material will be added as the conference continues.
[11:50] - Dan Tencer seems to be finished playing around with the microphone, so I'm assuming the sound is set up. Since there's nothing else to discuss as of yet, he seems to be dressed pretty casually for this sort of thing - aren't reporters supposed to wear suits?
[11:52] - The back of Dan Tencer's head is all that I can see from this camera (aside from the two water bottles on either side of the microphone). The back of his head appears to be itchy.
[11:54] - The zoom function on the camera seems to work.
[11:56] - The feed seems a little choppy. Hopefully that doesn't continue.
[11:56] - As per the comment below and now confirmed on their official site, Sportsnet is reporting that MacTavish is finished.
[12:01] - The Spector article says that the decision was made by MacTavish to step down, as opposed to being fired. Still waiting for Tambellini.
[12:03] - He's here.
[12:04] - The season was a disappointment, they aren't where they wanted to be. Issues need to be addressed - they've had discussions internally.
[12:05] - Tambellini confirms that the Oilers will be pursuing a new head coach. Tambellini says it was "the right thing for Craig and for the Oilers at this point". He says the team needs a "new voice", but calls the decision a mutual one between Tambellini, Lowe and MacTavish.
[12:06] - There will be personnel changes; he is not letting the players off of the hook.
[12:07] - Tambellini says that a "commitment to win at any cost" was the hallmark of old Oiler teams. He agrees that grit and size were issues this season, and says that the team will be identifying players who can add that internally and then acquiring what they need from outside the team.
[12:09] - The ownership, Kevin Lowe, and Craig MacTavish are the three reasons why Tambellini accepted the job. He thanked MacTavish for his service.
[12:10] - Calls MacT "a quality coach and a quality person, but decisions have to be made for us to get better".
[12:10] - Tambellini leaves the door open, but doesn't expect MacTavish back in another capacity. He thinks he will be coaching in the NHL next season for another team.
[12:11] - MacTavish's remaining year on his contract is "not an issue".
[12:12] - Tambellini still sees "an incredible amount of potential in this group". He said that the pressure on this group to perform immediately is "what you want" and identifies how players react to that kind of pressure as a key evaluation of their value.
[12:14] - Tambellini "will not put up with" an "unemotional game". He says the team needs more strength, energy, and grit, and again hints that trades will be made to acquire those qualities.
[12:14] - He keeps coming back to the theme that there "has been success at times". He has a specific type of coach in mind, and says that a new coach will be in place "when we get the right guy". It sounds like a decision won't be made until the options are clear; Tambellini hinted strongly that more options would be available once teams were eliminated from the playoffs. The first name that comes to my mind when he says that is Brent Sutter.
[12:16] - Tambellini has yet to talk to the assistant coaches but expects to deal with them "within the week".
[12:17] - He wants at least one top-six player, and guys that are hard to play against in general. He also reemphasizes the need to get more out of players that are currently in the organization. I'd guess that means that not all of MacTavish's whipping boys are considered irredeemable.
[12:17] - Tambellini identified scouting and development as areas where there is "a lot of work to do", and rather heavily implied there will be changes. Don't get too comfortable, Kevin Prendergast.
[12:18] - "It's time to stop looking back; we have to look forward." I'd imagine that the Oilers glory days job offerings are going to become fewer under Tambellini's watch.
[12:20] - "It's important that we take our time right now and that we review all aspects." No hasty decisions to be made, supposedly. Tambellini also was asked if any players had expressed a desire to leave. His response: "No."
[12:22] - Although I'm a little concerned that this team is going to go overboard to pick up size at the expense of other things, on the whole he's saying all the right things. He seems reasonable and even-handed, and says that there are definitely some positives to the current group that need to be kept. Change for the sake of change doesn't sound like it's going to be happening here, although I suppose time will tell.
[12:24] - Tambellini says that the coach doesn't neccessarily need NHL experience, but for an inexperienced guy he'd need to be "a special person". Based on his reaction, I'm guessing the next guy has NHL experience - his face pretty much gave that away.
[12:26] - Tambellini says that he "needs to be wide open right now" with respect to where the next head coach comes from, but I'm rather cautiously optimistic based on what he's said so far that it won't be someone from inside the organization.
Well, that's it for the press conference. On the whole, I think Tambellini said the right things and got the right message out; the team is in the midst of a top-to-bottom review of both players and management, and will set a course going forward to address areas identified as deficient. Naturally, the G.M. isn't going to criticize ownership, but I really think that for the most part it's a non-issue, and that was the message Tambellini stressed in that regard.
Tambellini praised MacTavish and spoke about him accurately; it does sound like he will be leaving the organization entirely and continue to coach, just somewhere else. I'm quite confident that there is another NHL job in the near future for MacTavish. As for his replacement, all the signs were there that Tambellini already has a short list; he said that he had a "specific type" of coach in mind, and it sounds like that coach will both a) have NHL experience and b) come from outside the organization. It also sounds like that coach is currently in the playoffs, and off the top of my head, my best guess would be Brent Sutter.
Obviously, time will tell, but based on this press conference I think this organization is in good hands.
On Second Thought...
I guessed Brent Sutter off of the top of my head, but Tambellini never specified that the coach had to have experience as a head coach at the NHL level; he just strongly hinted that the next coach would have NHL experience and was running a team with games left to play. Looking at my short list from the other day (and excluding Sutter), there are four names on the list; three of whom I think are the likeliest bets. Those three are:
- Scott Arniel. The Manitoba Moose coach is currently busy in the AHL playoffs, but given that Tambellini was the Vancouver Canucks executive responsible for overseeing their farm team, Arniel would be a known quantity for him. Arniel has previous NHL experience as an assistant coach with the Buffalo Sabres.
- Don Lever. An assistant coach in Montreal, Lever's AHL record is distinguished and he's been an assistant coach in Buffalo and St. Louis as well. Plus, it would be nice to pay the Canadiens back in kind for snatching up Claude Julien.
- Paul MacLean. Stealing Detroit assistant coaches could get to be something of a trend. MacLean followed Babcock over to Detroit from Anaheim, and he was also previously an assistant coach in Phoenix. He spent eight seasons as a minor league head coach, putting up a nice record in the IHL and a championship win with the UHL's Quad City Mallards.
Like I said, if I had to bet, I'd bet on one of those three.

@ freeze: Here's my take on Brent Sutter. I think it would be awesome to have him here, but here's why I don't think it will happen. He signed a 4 year deal with NJ. He is under contract. I could see Lou letting him out of his contract to go back to coach the Rebels or to go to Team Canada, 2010, but I cannot see Lou letting him take on another NHL coaching job in the next 3 years (the remainder of his contract). That's my two cents worth.
Sutter Signed a 4 year deal in July '07. He has 2 years left, not 3. The only way Brent ends up with another NHL team is if they give Lou some compensation in Jersey. And in all likleyhood, that team would be Calgary. Other than that, I'd expect him in Jersey or Red Deer, NOT Edmonton.

Or you could say "family is family". If he wants to "compete" with his brother, there's plenty of other teams he could go to.
Spelling takes to much thought. Gloating in unbecoming. So are personal attacks on players and coaches, team presidents etc. Time to let go of the past and look to the future. Fact the coach is no longer the coach, who did what or how is of no value to the fact. Speculating on new coaches and player moves is the time honoured role of fans. being upset at what changes might or might not be made before they happen is the best examples of foolishness I can think of at the moment.

Ya, I don't know about Sutter, but, I sure could see him enjoying competing against, not working for his brother. No way he ends up in Cal, long shot that he ends up in Etown. Either way, I like the having an experienced coach and the WE WILL COMPETE. This year, way way to many games where they were totally outworked. And whats up with Moreau not liking the expectations???? Ain't that why you play the games? To win? hey eathan, there's only 1 parade.

Not to dampen the party but...
If the trade deadline is an indication of what we can expect in the future, shouldn't we be a little concerned?
Both him and MacT stressed committment, willingness, grit and size as problems that were identified as far back as January, right?
So why does Tambellini go out and get a guy with a reputation of inconsistency and not using his body enough in Kotalik and another small skilled guy in O'Sullivan?
It was a good day in terms of asset management but it was pretty piss poor in terms of fixing what the club needed fixed. No?
I wonder what Tambellini was referring to exactly when he said that the expectations and preparation by the players needs to change.

Soo....Moreau and Staios presser at 2:30pm....WTF?

@ Rick:
Because that was the best available option with the assests we had to trade with?
@ Rick:
Maybe Tambellini traded Cole only because he knew he wasn't returning, and the trade that was made was the best option available?? Kotalik played well for us, and could possibly sign with us again. Obviously trades were in the future plans this summer, now we have Sully as another chip.

*can't imagine more excitement in one day. Hopes we are getting an apology like the lucky ducks in Springfield got*
@ Jack "FMNF" Bauer:
Or he was shopping off the wrong list.
Bottom line is that he didn't actually solve the problems that needed solving and ended buying for the sake of buying.

Maybe he means Penner had better come to camp in shape next year... or he can EXPECT to play in Sprinfield for the duration of his contract.
@ Rick:
Buying for the sake of buying, explain?

Thought I heard that it got postponed til tomorrw?
@ Chris: As far as I can recall Penner wasn't in shape LAST year but showed up this year much fitter and in good shape. Is that not true?
Maybe Moreau will explain why he feels it's unfair for the coach, and fans to have high level of expectation for the players to perform.

@ RossCreek H.A.N.F.:
Not sure...it just got tweeted by the official Oiler twits.
@ topshelf: I heard he barely made physical... and he used the offseason to learn how to juggle.

T68 M60 Animal Mother
RAP4 is proud to equip you for the hottest scenarios, with the
best equipment. When you're ready to storm the jungles like they did in "Full
Metal Jacket," to lay waste to your opponents in style, RAP4 has the perfect
new marker: the T68 M60.
That's right - the big, fierce general purpose machinegun carried by Animal Mother and used to great effect in cinema as in reality, now has a paintball twin. Live the dream of suppressing an entire sector with accurate, sustained fire,
with the all-new RAP4 T68 M60.
"You might not believe it," said 8-Ball in the movie, "but under fire Animal Mother is one of the finest human beings in the world. All he needs is somebody to throw hand grenades at him the rest of his life." Are you that cool under
pressure? Are you handy with a marker in the thick of the action?
Find out this season when you load 250 paintballs into the T68 M60's detachable box magazine and take to the field. You'll have more than a hopper's worth of paint right there, fed under constant tension into your T68 M60 so that every
time you pull the trigger there's a ball in perfect alignment waiting to fly downrange. That's the kind of reliability Animal Mother counted on with his belt-fed M60 squad machinegun; it's the same reliability real Marines, soldiers,
sailors and airmen count on from their M60s in combat zones around the world.
And when you run out of paint, detach the RAP4 Box Magazine and swap in a fresh one - as fast as changing a magazine, you're back in the action with another 250 shots. If you like reloading from tubes, get back in the action faster than
changing the belt on an M60 by clicking open the loading port on the RAP4 Box Magazine and dumping more paint right in...it'll be ready instantly, and the clear paint-indicator window on the rear of the RAP4 Box Magazine helps you know
exactly when to reload again.
With a 400 round per minute cyclic rate in full auto, the T68 M60 can put a lot of suppressive fire downrange...and with the RAP4 Box Magazine pushing each round into the chamber, you won't chop a ball.
Animal Mother liked to shoot from the hip - literally and figuratively, making it up as he went along and relying on his M60 to back him up. Now you can charge bravely into the jungle with the confidence that comes from packing that kind
of heat. Load up your T68 M60, strap an extra RAP4 Box Magazine or some pods to your vest, and let the good times - and the cameras - roll!
RAP4 - As Real as it Gets!
