Alternative Title: farming
Origins of agriculture, the active production of useful plants or animals in ecosystems that have been created by people. Agriculture has often been conceptualized narrowly, in terms of specific combinations of activities and organisms—wet-rice production in Asia, wheat farming in Europe, cattle ranching in the Americas, and the like—but a more holistic perspective holds that humans are environmental engineers who disrupt terrestrial habitats in specific ways. Anthropogenic disruptions such as clearing vegetation or tilling the soil cause a variety of localized changes; common effects include an increase in the amount of light reaching ground level and a reduction in the competition among ...

So Pretty!
"These sandals will give a little elegance to your outfit without going overboard. I bought these in pewter and I love the color and multi-tone embellishments. The beads are hand sewn and range from pewter to copper colors. A nice neutral to wear with just about everything!FIT/COMFORT: They fit well and seem to run true to size. The toe thong is placed a little closer to the big toe side of the shoe than I would like so I expect a little rubbing. The heel height and cushion is comfortable.QUALITY: Beads are very well sewn on. No blemishes on my pair. Very well made.STYLE: I plan to wear these throughout the summer when I go out on the town. They go nicely with long and short skirts, capris, and shorts. The neutral colors go with many colors.A nice classic style."

My Current Obsession--Hyde County, NC
My Whitney family line lived in an area called Lake Comfort, Hyde, NC. It is associated with Swan Quarter, NC. This is my current obsession. This area is rural, small population now and it has always been that way. Have to wait a couple of days for a book I ordered to come in. It is called, "Hyde County History: A Hyde County Bicentennial Project" by the Hyde County Bicentennial Commitee. Curious to see what info I may be able to gather from this book. My 2nd great grand uncle's Civil War Pension file I have found so interesting so far, but now I am thirsting for more information about Swan Quarter, Hyde, NC. I will keep you posted. Happy Researching, Everyone out there in the Blogosphere.

I am excited for you. I love it when I discover more information to read. Look forward to hearing more.ReplyDelete
How wonderful to find the history of an area of your ancestors. I've found some very good information in the Civil War Pension files which led to Confederate Regiments their battle history and even my ancestors names listed. I wish you lots of luck in your search. Thanks for stopping by CITexas Gal and becoming a Follower. I hope you will come again soon.ReplyDelete

Book Description HTML | Report this book
In this 1915 story--possibly the first modern spy novel--Buchan's perennial protagonist, Richard Hannay, averts the assassination of a world leader. Hanney, an expatriated Scot, returns from a long stay in South Africa to his flat in London. One night he is buttonholed by an American who appears to know of an anarchist plot to destabilize Europe, and claims to be in fear for his life. Hannay lets the American hide in his flat, and returns later to find that another man has been found shot dead in the same building, apparently a suicide. Four days later Hannay finds the American stabbed to death...

yeah he and Tori met on the set of a lifetime movie. wrecked a supposedly (according to him right before their affair) happy and tight marriage (with kids). pretty sad situation. I have a hard time liking a guy like that LOL
But he lives to cook another day - and that's as it should be. Johnny was definitely the weakest link of the cooks left. Not surprised with the results tonight.

"These shoes are really stiff especially in the heel. I normally wear an 8W. The width was acceptable, but the length of the shoe was too long (and not just a liittle). I didn't know until I wore them about 4 or 5 times because of the stiffness. Now my heel doesn't even come close to fitting. I put a heel pad in the shoes to take up the space, but they are still too loose and flop off of my foot when I walk. I do have too agree with other women that these shoes are super cute and have a wide range of wearability. If I only had been warned about the length and got the right size. I'll fix these somehow."

I love the color and style of these shoes
"They are a little tight on my foot however but not too uncomfortable. I think they look gorgeous though and I am keeping them. I just will only be wearing them at times when I will not be walking or standing a great deal.I don't like peep toe sandals that much but these are cute enough for me to deal with the 'crowded toe' look that sometimes occurs when walking too long in open toe shoes."

Unique in Pink
"Got these in pink. The shoes were kind of stiff at first but they work themselves out. I have wider feet and these fit great - so they may be on the wider side for all of you.These look even better in person than they do in the pictures :)"

Osprey R Mac Swimbait Top Hook
The Osprey rMac 6" Top Hook Swimbait is one of the signature series swimbaits from professional bass angler and swimbait master, Randy MacAbee. Delivering the same level of performance that has made Osprey a staple with swimbait anglers, it has a few deadly features all its own. For one, its slightly smaller than the standard size, measuring in at 6-inches. This allows it to attract everything from two-pounders to ten pounders, and it also features a thinner profile with the same size tail. This means you can fish it even slower, just crawling it along in the strike zone, and the tail will keep moving. Available in a variety of colors, the Osprey rMac 6" Top Hook Swimbait features a super sharp top hook and belly eye for affixing an additional treble or frog hook.

Customer Reviews
Comments: awesome baits. Puts out a big thump on a slow retrieve. Can't wait to see the 7" or bigger.
From: NorCal
Comments: Horrible, bait would spin on the retrieve. Tried nail weights etc. to straighten out to no avail. Waste of money.
From: Robert: Battle Creek, MI
Comments: not as good as the regular osprey. Rolls on its side at low speeds.
From: Jon: Roseville, CA
Comments: I bought one recently and when i first saw it i knew it was going to catch fish. but after a couple casts it started to run sideways. but i fixed it by putting a small 1/8th dropshot weight onto the belly of it with a split ring. now it runs straight even when winding in fast.

Those that need lights to know what the status of an output is have yet to learn how to use a multi-meter I guess.
Doesn't processing / fritzing allow you to do much of that in simulation?

Vesna Kittelson grew up in Split, Croatia. She attended the University of Minnesota where she received a BA in Studio Arts and a master's degree in Design. She has taught at the Minneapolis College of Art and Design and currently lives and works in the Twin Cities.
My paintings are defined by two driving forces characteristic of the human race: one destructive, to make war, and one creative, to make art. As I ponder the puzzling nature of violence and tenderness in us all, I try to untangle human nature from culture. In my war paintings I find myself pushed into the world of information, decoding and probing the line between authenticity and selective memory. I find that I am comfortable within the complexity of cultural history, but I am uncomfortable with the unfamiliar and dangerous games of political history.
Vukovar is a painting that I made about this Croatian city after it was completely destroyed by war and the failed games of political history. The people, the city, the cultural icons, the environment all are gone. I do not think that I can change anything with this painting, but the question for me is how to speak visually of rebuilding oneself after barbaric violence and damage have taken place-in the visual language of a gentle and civilized human activity-painting.

Half-Hour Brawl Breaks Out on British Airplane
A 12-person fight broke out at 30,000 feet on a Virgin flight from England headed to Barbados. It had to be broken up by crew and other passengers. But what got the whole thing started?
According to a fellow passenger's account, the people involved in the fight were part of a group and were all dressed up for some special occasion. One woman started yelling repeatedly "You swore in front of my child," and that's when the violence started.
There was about five minutes of shouting while people gathered around and before I knew it they were throwing punches and jumping on each other. Most of the people involved were sitting in that area and just standing on their seats while throwing punches.
Naturally, the authorities met the group when the plane arrived in Barbados and questioned the people involved.
Let's get this straight: a group of people going on vacation together wearing fancy clothes and getting in ridiculously ornate fights over silly things. Are they filming Real Housewives of London or something?

Ahh too bad you didn't look into the 1Plus2s ;). So much better than the AKG3003s :P. Still I have to admit if I hadn't heard the 1Plus2s I'd have opted for the 3003s still. Well actually I might have just skipped them and gone for the 8As although I'm still doing that now :). The only reason I've opted for the RWA AK100 is because Vinnie modded it to fix the 22 ohm output impedance issue so it works fine with Sensitive IEMs and as an end result is more detailed and open sounding than the AK100. So its a win win. Plus the portability, dual micro SD slots, decent UI, the works :). I'll post some impressions when I get it though.

Mr. Wing-It said they looked like chubby little birds! I kind of see it! Anyway, these guys have peppercorn eyes, tiny baby carrot noses, steamed green bean scarves, peppercorn buttons, and parsley arms. Do I really need to tell you what that little muffin-shaped meatless meatloaf is? It's The PPK's beet burger recipe baked in muffin tins at 375 degrees F for about 20 minutes. Me? Obsessed with a recipe? Never.
"Steamed green bean" was too much for me to handle.
Pea buttons are also cute!
Black eyed pea buttons!
They can also have pea eyes instead of peppercorn eyes, if you fear an unsuspecting toddler might eat them and consequently develop a lifelong fear of hot, spicy snowmen! This video shows two ways to make a snowman: one using cookie scoops to pile up the mashed potatoes, and another way using spoons. I hope you enjoy watching it, and building them, if you decide to make your own Mashed Potato Snowmen! I hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday season, or a wonderful regular season if you are not much of a holiday person like myself! :)
Bye, Frosty!

Deeplinks Blog posts about Innovation
Cable TV is a welcome addition in the homes of millions of Americans, and for more than 75 years, it's been a force for radical transformation of the opportunities available to creators, performers, and audiences alike.
But these may be the last days of the cable system.
Oh, not this cable system. This cable system is fine. But for anyone who wants to invent a new cable system, to ascend to the daring heights of cable providers, the way is being blocked. Having climbed from scrappy pirates to fleet-commanding admirals, the executives of the cable world want to pull up the ladder after themselves -- and they're being given a critical assist by the World Wide Web Consortium, which once stood for open standards, competition and innovation on the Web.
Netflix is in terrible danger. In fact, these might be its last days.
Oh, not today's Netflix. The Netflix you're using today is fine. It made it—got to do something daring and edgy, prove out its model, and become part of the establishment.
But the next Netflix—the company so cool it makes Netflix look like Blockbuster Video—that Netflix is practically dead in the water.
Stupid Patent of the Month: Mega-Troll Intellectual Ventures Hits Florist With Do-It-On-A-Computer Scheduling Patent
When it comes to patent trolls, no one is bigger than Intellectual Ventures. The Washington State-based behemoth is at the center of both patent trolling and the debate around patent reform. Though it claims to promote innovation, Intellectual Ventures is behind some of the most outrageous troll campaigns in recent years.
In a decision that could help other victims of abusive patent litigation, a court today ordered that Garfum.com Corporation must pay an EFF client's attorneys' fees. The court found that Garfum's patent suit lacked merit and was litigated unreasonably.
EFF Moves To Unseal Important Rulings Regarding Repeat Litigant Blue Spike
The public has a First Amendment right to access court records, and that right is generally only curtailed when there is "good cause" to do so. Unfortunately, when it comes to patent cases, courts routinely allow [PDF] parties to file entire documents under seal, without any public-redacted version being made available.

Getting all selected rows in ADF Table with multiple rows selection enabled
By Arunkumar Ramamoorthy-Oracle on Dec 13, 2010
When we build a web application which contains an ADF Table (with multiselect option), in many cases, we require to get all the selected rows to process through backing bean. This example will illustrate how to achieve that.
Assuming that we already have an application, that contains an ADF Table with multi-selection enabled (i.e the web page look something like the image shown below).
img empTableRT : Table based on Emp
To access the table in the backing bean (through command button click, for ex.), we add an attribute with accessors in the backing bean and bind it to ADF Table
RichTable empTable; public void setEmpTable(RichTable empTable) { this.empTable = empTable; }
public RichTable getEmpTable() { return empTable; }
code snippet of the af:table in jspx page.
<af:table value="#{bindings.EmpView1.collectionModel}" var="row" rows="#{bindings.EmpView1.rangeSize}" emptyText="#{bindings.EmpView1.viewable ? 'No data to display.' : 'Access Denied.'}" fetchSize="#{bindings.EmpView1.rangeSize}" rowBandingInterval="0" selectedRowKeys="#{bindings.EmpView1.collectionModel.selectedRow}" selectionListener="#{bindings.EmpView1.collectionModel.makeCurrent}" rowSelection="multiple" id="t1" binding="#{backingBeanScope.EmpBean.empTable}">
Let us add a command button in the jspx page to print down the "Ename"s of selected rows.
<af:commandButton text="Print selected Emps" id="cb1" action="#{backingBeanScope.EmpBean.printSelectedEmpNames}"/>
The method printSelectedEmpNames in the backing bean gets the selected row keys from the table, gets the corresponding Enames from the iterator (on which the table is based on) and prints them.
public String printSelectedEmpNames() { RowKeySet selectedEmps = getEmpTable().getSelectedRowKeys(); Iterator selectedEmpIter = selectedEmps.iterator(); DCBindingContainer bindings = (DCBindingContainer)BindingContext.getCurrent().getCurrentBindingsEntry(); DCIteratorBinding empIter = bindings.findIteratorBinding("EmpView1Iterator"); RowSetIterator empRSIter = empIter.getRowSetIterator(); while(selectedEmpIter.hasNext()){ Key key = (Key)((List)selectedEmpIter.next()).get(0); Row currentRow = empRSIter.getRow(key); System.out.println(currentRow.getAttribute("Ename")); } return null;
We run the page and click button to check the selected rows.
But..... It just prints only one Ename.
Well, this is because of the selectedRowKeys property of the af:table. Let us try removing that and see if we get the expected output.
<af:table value="#{bindings.EmpView1.collectionModel}" var="row" rows="#{bindings.EmpView1.rangeSize}" emptyText="#{bindings.EmpView1.viewable ? 'No data to display.' : 'Access Denied.'}" fetchSize="#{bindings.EmpView1.rangeSize}" rowBandingInterval="0"
selectionListener="#{bindings.EmpView1.collectionModel.makeCurrent}" rowSelection="multiple" id="t1" binding="#{backingBeanScope.EmpBean.empTable}">
Now, when we run the page, select 7 rows and click on the print button, it prints out
That is what we expected. Now, the question is why this happens?. It is because, since value of this selectedRowKeys property is #{bindings.EmpView1.collectionModel.selectedRow}, the selectedRowKeys will contain only the "row which is selected last". By unsetting this attribute, we let the table to push all the selected rows to selectedRowKeys, which will help us during
in the backing bean. JDeveloper automatically adds this property to the ADF Table when it is created by dragging from the data control. So, removing this property from the af:table would get us desired result.

Everyone also should keep in mind that while Kishi may have the general layout of the manga in his head some of the fine details he adds as he goes along to fill in the gaps. The fact that Izuna's injuries lead to his death may also include the idea that the Uchiha clan was attacked or got into a conflict by some unknown element and Izuna being handicapped cause of his injuries and without his sharingan died.
I mean look at Kimimaro who was also dying of a fatal disease for some time but was still able to go into one last battle. Same with Itachi and his final showdown with Sasuke. Even though Sasuke claims he killed Itachi to the Hokages he really died of a disease but one could argue it was the battle that aggravated his condition that lead to his death.
So all this needless nitpicking over minor details here doesn't really change the major facts that have already been laid down.
- Madara was going blind as anyone who uses MS does.
- Izuna gave his eyes to Madara and later dies.
- Madara receives a peace treaty from Hashirama
- The rest of the Uchiha clan wanted the war to end
- Madara didn't trust the Senju and was angry that his brother sacrificed his life
- Madara as the leader was forced to accept Hashirama's terms cause the rest of the Uchiha clan lost the will to continue fighting
I leave it there as I want to see what details Hashirama's flashback reveals next.

Team Canada beats Turkey in five
GATINEAU, Que. (May 15, 2013) – Louis-Pierre Mainville and Dustin Schneider put injury plagued seasons aside and aced their first test for 2013 helping Canada to a 21-25, 25-23, 25-19, 16-25, 15-12 victory over Turkey Wednesday night in the first of a three-match exhibition series.
It was the season opening match for the Canadians who are tuning up for the six-week FIVB World League Tournament which starts May 31 in Quebec.
Mainville (in photo) from Notre-Dame-de-l'Ile-Perrot,Que., played the last three sets and delivered a strong performance with eight points. Knee surgery two years ago and an ankle sprain in 2012 have kept Mainville off the court for almost the entire past two seasons.
''I'm very satisfied with my performance tonight,'' said Mainville. ''It was great to be back on the court with my teammates and my friends. It was what I needed. The injuries were a real setback for me but last year I made sure I took the time to fully recover. I've been training hard since January and I feel I've regained all my skills.''
Schneider, who plays setter, played in all five sets earning two points and led the Canadian team with 20 serves making only two errors. Like Mainville, Schneider also had surgery in 2011 and the road back has been difficult the past two seasons.
''Tonight's match was a big test physically for me,'' said Schneider, from Brandon, Man. ''I was able to go the whole game, not feel any pain and get the win. I'm happy.''
For head coach Glenn Hoag having two established veterans such as Mainville and Schneider on the squad could be a big boost.
''These guys are battlers, they have come back from major injuries that potentially could have ended their careers,'' said Hoag. ''To see their determination to come back and play as they did today is a real inspiration to their teammates.''
Hoag provided playing time to his 12 players on Wednesday and was satisfied with the outcome.
''The guys are just coming back from their winter seasons in Europe so the synchronism isn't quite there yet,'' he said. ''The guys were a bit hesitant and we didn't manage some situations properly. But we kept our concentration and showed a lot of stability.''
Gavin Schmitt of Saskatoon led the Canadians with 18 points while Fred Winters of Victoria added 10.
This is also an important series for Turkey which is tuning up for the European championships this summer.
The two squads meet again on Thursday at 7 p.m. at the Centre sportif in Gatineau, The series concludes Saturday in Kingston, Ont., at Queen's University. Start time is 4 p.m.

What a way to travel - about 75 miles, from one major river to another (the Illinois and the Mississippi), all on one newly built trail. The Hennepin Parkway State Trail (a linear state park) offers surcease from the flat, treeless Illinois prairie with a lock-strewn straight course of water and a green tunnel over the old tow path of a canal that was obsolete before it was completed.

It is also part of the Grand Illinois Trail, a 535-mile loop through northern Illinois. The tree-lined park is a refuge with prairie restorations and wetlands slicing through corn and soybean farmland. Home to diverse flora and fauna, it has become a favorite for bird watchers and prairie enthusiasts. It offers numerous year-round opportunities to boat, hike, bike, fish, ride horseback, snowmobile, ice skate, and cross-country ski. Explore Henry County's jewel – the Hennepin Canal. In wintertime experience the longest snowmobile trail in the state -- 91 miles on the tow path. You can use the ice at your own risk, but pay heed to the locks, bridges and culverts where the ice likely is thinner than the rest of the canal. Bring your blades, skating along the canal is free! Keep in mind the rule is there must be 4" of snow and 6" of frost on canal for route to be open. Call the Visitor Center for automated message.

Francesco Pasa (frapa)
Txtlib is a small library (the download is only 2.5 Kb with a test script included) to render text. It's similar to Glyph and support almost the same features, but it use a different system.
Txtlib is developed to do a css editor.
How txtlib workTxtlib is a module; you need only to import it and call the class Text. Txtlib does not draw anything on the screen, it only build an image calling the update() method. This allow you to have the maximum control on the screen. You have just to blit the text.area image where you want.
Txtlib doesn't store the format information in the same variable as text. This complicate the control of format, but make txtlib suitable to make a text editor with code highlighting. Anyway, it's available a method to convert HTML-like mark-up code into txtlib text format.
Version 0.2 - Add html style markupFrom this version you can define the style with simple html-like tags - see documentation for more informations.
