Redbox Instant for iOS goes live in App Store, furthers competition with Netflix
Posted by Jason Diaz Categories: Entertainment, New Apps, Video Apps, Free Apps
It appears that Netflix has some new competition in the form of a Redbox and Verizon partnership. Today they're slowly rolling out their content streaming alternative to the masses. For $8 per month, Redbox Instant will have unlimited streaming and four DVD rentals; $9 if users opt for the Blu-ray option. As part of the launch, Redbox Instant has released their universal app for iOS that works on iDevices. To date, it is a mystery what contracts the Redbox and Verizon partnership has with studios with regards to content.
For those brave early adopters out there, y'all have the chance to get in on the Redbox Instant action by signing up on their private beta via their website.

Google releases YouTube Capture App for iOS
Posted by Jason Diaz Categories: Entertainment, New Apps, Video Apps, Google, Free Apps
Less than two weeks after Google updated its YouTube app for iOS that added universal binary support for the iPhone 5 and iPad, the company has released YouTube Capture. The app is dedicated to video recording and has the ability of simultaneously sharing via YouTube, Google+, Facebook, and Twitter. The app has some video editing features like color correction, trimming, and the ability to add music tracks. Apparently, there are some reports that the app only uploads in 720p even if some iDevices can shoot in 1080p. Also, some users might be unaware that iOS has the integrated functionality to share/upload videos to YouTube from within the Photos App and in full 1080p glory. Unfortunately, abeit for a few amount of users, the app isn't optimized for the iPad's screen. Here's a list of features with YouTube Capture.
Film and share videos with YouTube Capture:
- Easy, fast recording
- Touch up videos with color correction, stabilization, trimming, and music tracks
- Upload to YouTube, Google+, Facebook, and Twitter simultaneously
YouTube Capture is available for iPhone and iPod touch.

Google Maps now available for iPhone
Posted by Jason Diaz Categories: Navigation, New Apps, Google, Free Apps
Google has finally reincarnated its map offering and is free of charge in Apple's App store for your consumption. The app promises features that the fabled old stock maps didn't offer like voice-guided turn-by-turn navigation. It has been said by AllThingsD that Apple chose to do its own mapping solution because Google wouldn't offer that specific feature for iOS. My initial impression of the app is that it is visually appealing, and we are glad to see that Street View is present, along with public transit info. The most important thing is that the new Google Maps is vector-based, so navigating the map should be buttery smooth. Google reps have admitted that it's even better than maps for Android. Here's the run down of the features in the Google Maps reboot:

Alternate name: Sour Guelder Rose
Family: Caprifoliaceae, Honeysuckle view all from this family
Description Viburnum opulus (Guelder Rose, Water Elder, European Cranberrybush, Cramp Bark, Snowball Tree) is native to Europe and Asia. Some botanists also treat the closely related North American species Viburnum trilobum as a variety of it (as Viburnum opulus var. americanum Ait.), or a subspecies, Viburnum opulus subsp. trilobum (Marshall) Clausen. The common name 'Guelder Rose' appears to have originated because a popular cultivar, the Snowball tree supposedly first originated in the Dutch province of Gelderland.
It is a deciduous shrub growing to 4-5 m tall. The leaves are opposite, three-lobed, 5-10 cm long and broad, with a rounded base and coarsely serrated margins; they are superficially similar to the leaves of some maples, most easily distinguished by their somewhat wrinkled surface with impressed leaf venation. The leaf buds are green, with valvate bud scales.
The hermaphrodite flowers are white, produced in corymbs 4-11 cm diameter at the top of the stems; each corymb comprises a ring of outer sterile flowers 1.5-2 cm diameter with conspicuous petals, surrounding a center of small (5 mm), fertile flowers; the flowers are produced in early summer, and pollinated by insects. The fruit is a globose bright red drupe 7-10 mm diameter, containing a single seed. The seeds are dispersed by birds.
The fruit is edible in small quantities, with a very acidic taste; it can be used to make jelly. It is however very mildly toxic, and may cause vomiting or diarrhea if eaten in large amounts.
The dried bark is used in a tincture, known as "Cramp Bark," to alleviate painful menstrual cramps.
Viburnum opulus (Kalyna) is the National symbol of Ukraine.
Habitat Cities, suburbs & towns.
Range Northwest, New England, Southwest, Southeast, Plains, Great Lakes, Mid-Atlantic, Rocky Mountains.

Hmm, I've neglected avgogato again, it seems. But here's the latest catch-up on what's happened lately:
ALL WEEKEND Telenor Bedrift (or Nett?) screwed up my phone lines so that I were disconnected regularly from whatever (ISP, phone calls, etc). And they said ISDN would work better... And I also got a not that good bill from them. Yikes.
Went to Gardemoen (Oslo International Airport) yesterday to pick up X-Virge (aka julian on advogato). I drove at 06:00 (6 am), picked up BeeWarlock in Tønsberg and drove... we thought that were late (the plane was to land 08:30), so we drove in 140 (the speed limit was 90). The plane was 10 minutes late, and it took 40 minutes extra for them to get their luggage and walk to the exit (it was of course the gate furthest away from the terminal).
Julian was tired... very tired, and everything in Oslo was closed (sunday). Very closed. And it started raining. Great? hehe :-)

Results 1 to 7 of 7
Thread: Back labour
23rd January 2012 03:33 PM #1
Back labour
I had back labour with 2 of my babies. With the first, I remember my midwife checking me and telling me that my baby was posterior (face up). This creates contractions which are more painful with a lot of pain in the back. As soon as she turned my baby, that back pain vanished. It felt SO good. Then I had a few more contractions and decided to hop into a warm bath (l love the warm water during labour).
During my labour in the water, my baby flipped again, so that she was posterior (I could immediately feel the difference in my labour pains) and then she flipped on her own to an anterior position (face down, and the best presenting position for birth).
I remember my sister-in-law applying counter pressure to my lower back during my contractions, and I remember the relief that offered while my baby was posterior.
Here's a good video showing how the use of tennis balls can be very effective at relieving back pain during labour.

all 8 of my babies were posterior. my labours are long & intense with terrible back pain. It has been suggested that due to the fact that all of them have been posterior, the shape of my pelvis is what turns the babies to this position when they engage.
The only real relief i get, apart from an epidural, is the shower. running warm water on my back is heaven. I am really hoping a birth pool will have a similiar effect.
the tennis ball video is great...so simple yet effective. will definately be giving it a go.
31st January 2012 10:26 AM #3
Has your birth attendant (doctor?) ever tried to turn your babies to an anterior position while you were in labour?
With my first baby, my midwife turned her when I was about 4cm, and as soon as baby's head was positioned better on my cervix, I went to 6cm. My midwife just inserted her two fingers (think of a "V") and rotated baby's head, and baby's body followed.
With my 3rd baby my midwife broke my bag and then turned the baby's head the same way, BUT she had her assistant help rotate the baby's body by manipulating my belly. She then held the baby in that position for a contraction (to move the baby down and keep him in position) and at the end of the contraction she said, "With contractions like that, you're baby will be her in an hour". It ended up taking 2 hours, but that's because I wasn't in a good position to push. Once they took me from a leaning back position to on my knees, I felt that urge to push and things progressed very quickly.
I'm just wondering if your attendant tries to turn your babies during labour. For me it was a huge relief and labour progressed much faster because baby was better positioned.
Did you birth your babies "sunny side up"?

A great website for looking at lots of different techniques for encouraging babies into a head down and anterior position Gerri is Spinning Babies - so you might get some ideas from this website. I've also just put up an article on the website called 'Turning a posterior baby in pregnancy is not so easy' which reports on a study that shows hands and knees position (on its own) in pregnancy doesn't appear to encourage babies into an anterior (front facing) position. While a little disappointing I think we just have to look for alternative solutions. This doesn't report whether or not it makes a different in labour.

Have you turned any anterior babies during labour? Just curious if it's something you've seen before or that you do yourself.

Most of my babies aren't usually posterior until they engage. The last 2 were, but i had an anterior placenta both times. from memory a couple were tried to be turned during labour. the others were turned during 2nd stage with the vacuum. my last bub was born "sunny side up'. he was my 10lb1oz vba4c bubba.

I did try a lot of things closer to labour day to prevent the posterior position...sitting forward & chiropractic sessions & all fours in labour to no avail. I tend to believe the theory that the shape of my pelvis has a lot to do with it.

Hi girlies
Sounds like you're having a great time, how long is your bus journey to Santa Barbara?
Its rather sad about all the poor people there considering the wealth there is in the USA, so maybe little old England is'nt so bad after all. Anyway you just 'gotta keep moving on I guess'
I expect the tans are topping up nicely by now, while we now have rain again....
lots love xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Forgot to mention!!
Loading Map
Thanks for posting messages and adding your own photos! We can't do ours yet as these public domain pcs won't let us!!!!
We will keep trying tho!
Forgot to tell you in our rush to say we were moving on what a great time we had in SF. The trolley cars are great, we even got to hang off the sides as it was careering up and down those hills.
Apparently the brakes are made of plywood and need replacing every 3 days - you can actually smell them burning!!!!!
The one thing that is starting to get on our nerves in America is the amount of homeless, spaced out people constantly asking for money - do we look like we've got any to spare???????
Santa Cruz is lovely - our hotel is right on Monterrey Bay, we can see the sealions under the boardwalk at night.
Yep, lots of solid gone ex hippies all around but not alot of love..........
Moving on to Santa Barbara tomorrow - talk later.
Post your own travel photos for friends and family Pictures

Aortic (subaortic) stenosis is a narrowing of the pathway for blood leaving the heart. The narrowing is usually beneath the aortic valve of the left ventricle; the condition is then called subvalvular aortic stenosis or SAS for short.
SAS is a genetically predetermined disease that affects dogs. The condition is rare in cats.

|Warmwater flyfishing Bass, pike and even muskies in your backyard
|Topic Review (Newest First)
|John Desjardins
|Yup, that was quite a difference in days. Friday I went to one of my favorite ponds and the Sunfish were on the reeds attacking anything dragged through them. Saturday morning going to vote in the town elections it was snowing and you couldn't see across the lake due to the mist rising off it. Sunday I took my son fishing on Wachusset reservoir and the fish were deep & not biting flys or worms. I even got to see the park ranger (first one in 13 years of living in MA) and didn't have my license checked .

A weekend of contrasts
I spent this past weekend in Londonderry, NH for my sister-in-law's graduation. I got up early on Saturday to trek over to one of my favorite bass and pickeral ponds. I was greeted by a very heavy and wet snow. YIKES!!! :eyecrazy: Aren't we only 2 weeks from June? Needless to say, I went back to bed.
Last night, upon our return home to central CT, I went to a local pond for an hour to try again. No snow, and plenty of fiesty bluegills and small largemouths. I also saw some very large bass cruising the edges of the riprap as the sun fell. I'd conservatively estimate a few of them at 6 or 7 pounds.
The old addage about New England weather still holds true. If I see snow again this year, I think I'll cry.

Secondary peritonitis is an inflammation of the peritoneum, the thin tissue that lines the inner wall of the abdomen and covers most of the abdominal organs.
Secondary means it is due to another condition, most commonly the spread of an infection from the digestive tract.
Secondary peritonitis
Secondary peritonitis has several major causes. Bacteria may enter the peritoneum through a hole (perforation) in the gastrointestinal tract. Such a hole may be caused by a ruptured appendix, stomach ulcer, perforated colon, or injury, such as a gunshot or knife wound.
Secondary peritonitis can also occur when bile or chemicals released by the pancreas (pancreatic enzymes) leak into the lining of the abdominal cavity.
Foreign contaminants can also cause secondary peritonitis if they get into the peritoneal cavity. This can occur during use of peritoneal dialysis catheters or feeding tubes.
Inflammation of the peritoneal cavity caused by bacteria can result in infection of the bloodstream (sepsis) and severe illness.
Secondary peritonitis can also affect premature babies who have necrotizing enterocolitis.
Note: There may be signs of shock.
Tests may include:
Surgery is usually necessary to remove sources of infection such as an infected bowel, inflamed appendix, or abscess.
General treatment includes:
The outcome depends on the underlying cause, the duration of symptoms before treatment, and the general health of the patient. Outcomes can range from complete recovery to overwhelming infection and death, depending on these factors.
Call your health care provider if you develop symptoms of peritonitis. This is a serious condition that typically requires emergency medical treatment.

WANTED: dead laptop for my child to play on
Posted by: "sveapolster" firstname.lastname@example.com sveapolster
Sat May 3, 2008 6:00 am (PDT)
has anyone got a dead laptop (preferably mac but i'm not choosy - though the husband is)
for my little daughter to play on?
this would save our 'proper' computers from destruction.
[Emphasis mine]
Three stories have been tagged '!ellobo', one of which is one the front page right now. No stories have ever been tagged 'ellobo'.
Why? Why not?
..he discovers some previously unknown element of political theory to explain the discrepancy between the two.
I could list examples of this, but they are so easy to find that I can't be bothered.
Within the last few weeks, something has changed. Whereas tags like 'fud' 'notfud' and 'yes' or 'no' answers to rhetorical questions in the headlines used to dominate, they are rarely seen anymore. There are in general a lot fewer wisecrack tags. and every article has tags for its Section - eg 'business', and often several of the official slashdot sections if it could have belonged to several. It seems to me that very few people would have bothered to add these categorising tags, when you can already filter stories by section heading without a need for tags.
Did CmdrTaco et al implement tags then decide that Web 2.0 style 'folksonomy' was too risky, and skew the tag system heavily in favour of top-down editorial control? Did they blacklist certain tags to avoid the front page making slashdot look like a hangout for the childish, the cheeky, and those with a chip on their shoulder? It would be interesting to find out.
I am never buying a HP printer (or anytthing else made by them) again. Two of their printers this year have died on me. Not the hardware, but the software seems to have fubared on the most recent one. The printer powers on, error lights flash and they refuse to print anything.
My (paranoid?) theory is that running the printer from a dual-booting Windows/Linux system has triggered some kind of DRM in the printer which tries to stop the printer and cartridges from being reverse engineered. printing worked fine under linux then the printer died when i booted back into windows. the printer worked fine previously under a different windows system. the other printer died in similar circs.
now i've seen a cheap lexmark which i'm wondering about since they are apparently 'considered evil'?

My feeling is that the Network Neutrality wars will be won by Google, which means apparently that the first Net Neutrality war, the current one, will be won by the pro-neutral side. You see after being among the only major web players to escape the dotcom crash fairly unscathed, Google took advantage of the subsequent telco crash to start buying up dark fibre, lots and lots of unused bandwidth all over the US.
I don't know if you would get your broadband provision from GoogleNet, but I reckon a lot of people would. So in the first instance at least, they are not really as subject to blackmail by telcos as a lot of people speaking out in favour of neutrality are suggesting. Everyone else is though, so the question is what do Google see as the future of the Internet? Indexing the chaos of the current system, where anyone can connect and contribute, has made them a lot of money. But perhaps the Hollywood backed alternative of the TVnet, as system whereby you can buy all forms of sanitised and commercial music, film and games in the comfort of your own home will start to appeal to them more once they do an Apple and reinvent themselves as 'content providers'.
my little sister surprised me; we were talking about 'oyster' cards, the rfid-based fare system for most public transport in london. the system is quite new and quite complex as there are lots of different fares and different ways of paying; you can put credit on the card and get charged per journey, or use it as a 'travelcard' which allows you unlimited travel through certain zones over a day, a week, a month etc., or use a mix of both.
my sister has used it for a while and when i talk to her about it she tells me the different ways she 'swipes' in and out of the system so as to avoid paying where it's not necessary (if the station has the barriers open / no barriers) or so.
i'm pretty interested in 'oyster' so i'd been doing a little research into it. i explained to her that there are two ways you can run a system like this. one is that the cards have no information on them except an identifier. when you 'swipe' this just allows the barrier or ticket machine to look you up on the central database, to check if you're allowed to travel, and modify the amount of credit you have if necessary. the other way is that this information is actually stored on the card in some form, which would presumably need to be encrypted. often when i talk to her (and many other people) about stuff like this i get the feeling they are just humouring me by acting interested.
then she surprised me by telling her what i was just about to tell her: "Yes, oyster seems to use a mixture of both." I knew this from reading information on the internet about it, but she didn't.
from observing the behaviour (input and output) of a black box, she was able to create a theory about how the system worked inside. that is the hacker property.
i have mod points and nothing to do except abuse the moderation system.
it's just a lot easier to mod down ppl who have drawn attention to themselves by FOEing me than to actually read whole stories and dozens of comments.
Like punning, programming is a play on words.

The Four Seasons Resort Hualalai on the Big Island earned top honors in Conde Nast Traveler's 2012 readers poll of the top spa resorts in Hawaii.
The spa, which moved up from fifth place last year, earned an overall score of 97, with scores of 97.4 for treatments and staff, and 96.2 for facilities.
The readers who participated in the poll had a total of 46,352 visits to hotel, resort and cruise ship spas, and a place on the lists of the top 270 spas in North American, the Caribbean, Hawaii and at sea could only be earned after "many visits by many Conde Nast Traveler readers," the magazine said.
The Grand Wailea on Maui tied for second on the Hawaii list with a score of 95.3 with the Kauai Marriott Resort, which earned a perfect score of 100 for its staff.
In the No. 4 position was the St. Regis Princeville Resort with an overall score of 94.8 and a score of 97.8 for treatments, the highest for Hawaii spas in that category.
The fifth-place Wailea Beach Marriott Resort & Spa had an overall score of 94.7, which included a perfect 100 for facilities.
The Spa at Travaasa Hana on Maui, which was the top resort spa on the 2012 list, is not on the 2013 list.

text: The iron bowl might be the only place an upset might occur, but I think Alabama is still quite a bit better than Auburn and will win it. Considering that Florida was beaten at home by a DivII team, FSU is going to have no problem with them. OSU is going to thump Michigan pretty badly. I'm not expecting anything shocking next week. Of course, strange things can happen late in the season.

The OHI Process
OHI approaches organizational health through resource allocation. Though there are many benefits to creating a healthy workplace, one primary way of considering those benefits is by considering the way employees allocate their personal resources of time, energy and money.
Every demand we experience calls for the use of at least one of these limited resources, so every hour we spend meeting one demand leaves one less hour to spend meeting other demands.
As employees, we consider all of the demands we face and then make choices as to where to allocate our time, money and energy. These decisions often times result in a feeling of work-life imbalance.
Organizations can intervene at all stages of the resource allocation process. They can implement programs and practices that bolster employee energy and financial resources, that decrease the number of demands employees experience, and that improve the way employees allocate their time, money and energy.
OHI relies heavily on the psychologically healthy workplace approach advocated by APA.
By providing employees and employers with strategies tailored to their specific industry and worksite, the Organizational Health Initiative works with managers, supervisors and workers to develop strategies that increase productivity, efficiency, job satisfaction and physical and mental health.

Unlike negative reviewer(s), I found the Onegai Teacher manga absolutely fantastic. So great that I gave it, as you may or may not have noticed a 10/10 rating. For me the only other manga that accomplished this high rating was Air Gear, which has pretty much everything needed for a Shounen genred fan like me. So why did Onegai Teacher have such an impact on me when it's not even shounen? Well, here are the reasons, you don't have to believe me, but please do give a try to the manga and check it out.
I'll start with some background on myself, in accordance to anime/manga: I like watching and lately... See full review
One guy, several girls and a heap of mishaps are what make a harem however Sekirei does things is a little differently. Instead of focusing on the typical Ecchi, Romantic, Comedy aspect; here the Supernatural, Action takes precedence, following an exciting battle royale of hot characters. Depending on your taste you may enjoy this out of the ordinary harem, or be repulsed by the clothes stripping action.
The Sekirei Plan is a top secret project where hot girls & guys of unknown origin have to fight, fight and fight some more in some bizarre battle royale. Minato Sahashi is the young man... See full review
Shakugan no Shana is a fantasy anime title with a touch of drama. It manages to retain its fantasy element while keeping a high level of teenage high school romance-related drama in terms of unrequited love between a few of the characters. Shakugan no Shana never leans towards one side completely. The fights between Shana and the Guze no Tomogara are consistent and never drawn out or cut short. There is rarely a lengthy time span separating the fights to make a viewer question if one is coming up. This allows room for episodes that develop the characters beyond the war at hand.
While the fight in... See full review
Simplicity can sometimes produce the best results, and that is especially true for this light novel.
People who have heard of Spice and Wolf have probably seen the anime and may not even know it was based off a light novel or have not given thought to read the light novel from which the story originated. However, this novel is a very enjoyable read and can easily get people engrossed in the story.
When I first bought this novel I did it because I really wanted to know what happened next after the end of the anime series. I really enjoyed the series and the way Spice and Wolf II ended, it... See full review
The story is about a boy and girl who both want to become closer to their respective crushes. The boy, Ryuuji, likes the girl's best friend. The girl, Taiga, likes Ryuuji's best friend.

The main protagonist is Ryuuji Takasu. In school, he's feared by his scary looking face. Despite having a scary face, he loves to clean and cook. His love for cleaning is so great that he even carries cleaning materials in his school locker. In the story, he has the conflict of not... See full review
This by far is probably one of the best mangas out there that I have ever read. I have never been hooked on a manga for so long and still kept buying the next volume as soon as it came out without taking stopping ever 5 volumes. If you have ever read any of CLAMP's other works you'll sure to be able to enjoy this one.
I have to give it a ten. It's original and fresh. This is the very first manga I have ever read that the story takes place in many different places. The plot seems to be never ending because they have to find Sakura's feathers. But that is what I like about it because I... See full review
Just like the other guys review this is quite a bit watered down. But it still is following the Yosuga no Sora storyline which is pretty amazing. The manga is mainly focusing on the Sora arc as of chapter 6 and that's the reason why I am reading it. Because anime's based off harem eroge's will combine all the character's arcs which is really annoying at times when you've got your eyes set on that girl. It's short so give it a read.See full review
Of the many merits the Eureka Seven anime hold, the series is well-known for its outstanding soundtrack and slick animation. So naturally, the question that dwells on the mind of anyone who is considering the manga is: "Would the manga adaptation fare well within a medium devoid of these things?" The answer is "yes". With a darker and more mature story, great artwork, and extremely engaging drama, the Eureka Seven manga is well worth the time of newcomers and anime veterans alike.
The story centers around the adventures of Renton Thurston, who upon meeting a peculiar mecha-riding... See full review
I must say this was very enjoyable read despite its short length.
Story: Simply outstanding story, as expected from KEY. An excellent story from start to finish, however I did find a few things confusing such as Tomoya's memory loss, like many of KEY's works, its a finely tuned story.
Art: I wouldn't say it is a masterpiece in artwork, but the drawing is well done nonetheless. A good mixture of fights, touching moments, and chibis here and there.
Character: A small cast of characters, but definitely one that I loved very much. However, from what I have seen in the Clannad anime... See full review
"Shall I take you away, to the place where dreams come true" A quote that tells almost everything about this Manga or anime or light novel its all connected to that one dream world where your every wish comes true!

Junichi Asakura is a pretty normal Japanese teenager in a typical harem world. He will encounter various girls, and eventually have to make a decision on one of them, whether the read likes the outcome of said decision or not. The day-to-day antics can be amusing; the personalities of some of the girls gel together well. Other than that, there's nothing special at all here, so don't expect anything out of the ordinary for a harem series.

I was going to blog about the fact that using org-mode, referred to in my previous diary entry, made the important but non-urgent tasks more visible. I was going to use sorting out backups for interesting data (say, my e-mail archives) as an example, and discuss the solution I came up with, but I have just realised that the trust model is exactly backwards (my server trusts root on the backup machine). This is annoying, because I thought I'd got it right, and because getting it right would have been equally easy.
Oh well. So, instead, I'll return sorting out backups to the TODO (or maybe STARTED) state, and (prompted by some recent discussion on #lisp IRC) I'll blog about SBCL's interpretation of Unicode characters, with the up-front caveat that I'm Not An Expert in this languages, glyphs, graphemes, characters and all that jazz.
Common Lisp's string type is defined to be a vector specialized to hold only characters or a subtype thereof. This definition is already hard to wrap your head around, and has amusing consequences documented here in the past, but I don't want to get into it too much; merely to say that already this definition restricts to a fairly large extent the possible implementation strategies for supporting Unicode.
Why so? Because in Unicode there are several notions of 'character', and we have to decide which of them we're going to use as our Lisp character type (and use as string constituents). The simple answer from the implementation point of view (and the route that SBCL currently takes) is to define a Lisp character as an entity corresponding directly to a Unicode code point. This is simple and straightforward to implement, but unfortunately has the side effect of making various Common Lisp string functions less useful to the user.
How so? Well, consider the string comparison functions, such as string=. As specified, string= compares two strings, character by character. In SBCL, then, this compares two sequences of Unicode code points, character by character, for equality. The problem is that this operation doesn't in general have the semantics of 'string equality', because in Unicode there is more than one way to encode the same abstract character: for example, the e-acute 'abstract character', or possibly 'grapheme', e-acute (which is usually displayed 'é') can be represented either as the single code point U+00E9, or as the combining character sequence U+0065 U+0301.
So, that's OK; the Unicode FAQ on Combining Marks says that characters and combining character sequences are different, and even implies that programmers should be dealing with Unicode code points (SBCL characters). Unfortunately, Lisp has been around for longer than Unicode, and code has been written essentially assuming that string= performs a language-string equality comparison rather than a codepoint-by-codepoint equality comparison, simply because (pre-Unicode) these two concepts were conflated.
What about the alternative? We could try defining Lisp characters to be abstract characters, represented as combining character sequences. One problem with this idea is that there's the char-code function to implement: for every Lisp character there must be a corresponding unique integer. That's not so much a problem – Lisp has bignums after all – but it will make char-code-limit surprisingly large (in principle, I think every combining mark could be applied to a given base character). This means that we'd lose the ability to represent an arbitrary character as an immediate object, meaning that accessing characters from strings would in general cause heap allocation, and lead to surprises elsewhere in the system.
So, given that we stay with a Lisp character corresponding to a Unicode code point, what other pitfalls and details are there to consider? The memory representation of strings of type (simple-array character (*)) is worth mentioning; because there's a fairly strong cultural expectation of O(1) access time in vectors, we don't do any compression, but simply store each Unicode codepoint in a 32-bit cell. SBCL has a separate base-string representation, where each ASCII codepoint is stored in an 8-bit cell; a long time ago I gave a talk about this.
Also, interpretation of the contents of strings has
confusion recently. Granted that a string is a vector of
(effectively) code points, what does that mean for strings
surrogate characters (code points in the range
U+D800–U+DFFF)? These code points do not
correspond to
any abstract characters directly; instead, pairs of
surrogates are (in certain Unicode encodings, such as UTF-16)
interpreted as characters beyond the Basic Multilingual
Plane. Some
Lisp implementations (such as
Lisp) go so far to resolve this ambiguity as to forbid the
creation of a Lisp character with a surrogate codepoint. In
however, we take the view that those characters exist, but
not be interpreted in any way; a string containing
pairs should be considered to have individual surrogate
characters in
it, and no attempt should be made to combine them. If there
is data
in an encoding which uses surrogate pairs (such as UTF-16),
then that
data should be read in using the :utf-16 external
format, so
that no surrogates are present at the Lisp level; an attempt
to write
out a surrogate Lisp character in a Unicode encoding should
an error. (NB: not all of this is implemented yet).
All of this merely scratches the surface of Unicode support; I'm hoping to find time to implement better support for finding properties of the Unicode Character Database, and to implement Unicode algorithms for normalization, collation and so on; I'm also planning to tighten up support for the Unicode encodings (to address the potential security issues that exist from nonconforming decoders) and generally to improve support for doing useful things with non-ASCII. As usual, there's likely to be a significant lag between planning and doing...

I realize all pups are different, but I was wondering what people's thoughts are on the age to enter a pup into a started/junior test?
My little girl is 15 weeks now and I'm pretty sure she could pass a started test, not that I'm looking to enter her right now. I haven't ran any retriever tests, but it looks like some of the dogs I've seen in the started tests are about a year old. My original plan was to get her through the started by the end of the spring or early summer? Then get ready for duck season and more senior levels next spring... I know there are no "time tables" in dog training, but I wanted hear some thoughts from more experienced handlers.. .

Keogh, 64, is a 1973 graduate of the University of Delaware, where he was a letterwinner on the golf team, and also holds a master's degree from Wilmington College in 1999.
During his 15 seasons at the helm, Keogh has led his teams to 120 tournament top 10 finishes, including capturing 15 team titles. His 2012-13 squad, which posted six top five tournament finishes during the season, tied for its highest Colonial Athletic Association Tournament showing with a fifth place finish. Keogh's 2005-06 squad also placed fifth the CAA Tournament.
Keogh was named the 2015 CAA Coach of the Year after guiding a young squad to four second place finishes and a sixth place result at the league championship. The Blue Hens featured four players who carded a round in the 60's, and set a UD single season record with a 75.66 team average round. Delaware also had three players average under 75 shots per round for the first time in school history.
Through his tenure at Delaware, Keogh has coached two conference tournament champions and NCAA Tournament participants in Justin Martinson (2010) and Greg Matthias (2012). Martinson has played professionally on the Web.com Tour and NGA Pro Golf Tour. Additionally Joey McLister, who enjoyed a record-breaking career for the Blue Hens in 2004-07, played on the Web.com Tour and competed in two PGA Tour events.
In his first season at the helm of the Blue Hens in 2001-2002, Keogh led the squad to an eighth place finish at the CAA Championship. His teams finished a season-best fifth at both the Wesley and Lafayette Invitationals.
In his second season, the Hens placed ninth at the CAA championships but captured three tournament titles during the season, winning at the Army Fall Invitational, the Goldey Beacom Fall Invitational, and the season-ending Scotty Duncan Memorial Invitational.
During the 2003-04 campaign, the Hens posted six top five team finishes, including a second place finish at Scotty Duncan Memorial hosted by the Blue Hens during the spring and a second place finish at the John McDonald Classic hosted by Temple during the fall. The Hens placed ninth at the CAA Championship. As a team, the Hens improved their stroke average to 77.59 for the season after posting a mark of 80.94 the previous year.
During the 2004-05 year, the Blue Hens improved to an eighth place finish at the CAA championships, falling just one stroke short of seventh place, and posted a tournament victory at the spring Goldey-Beacom Invitational. The Hens also placed second at the fall Goldey-Beacom Invitational, were fourth at the Don Mershon Invitational and Scotty Duncan Memorial Tournament, and sixth at the Lafayette Invitational.
His team's 2005-06 season was the best in five years in the CAA as he led the Blue Hens to a fifth place finish in the team standings led by Joe McLister, who became the first UD individual to earn All-CAA honors and place in the top 10 in the league tournament with a 10th place finish. The team posted six top five tournament finishes during the season, including winning the team title at UD's Scotty Duncan Memorial Tournament to finish out the season. Delaware's team cumulative stroke average of 75.69 established a new school record.
The 2006-07 squad, led once again by all-time UD career stroke average leader McLister, posted nine top 10 finishes, including winning the Hens' own Scotty Duncan Memorial, placing third in the Fairfield Spring Invitational, and fourth in the William & Mary Spring Invitational. The Hens registered a sixth place team finish at the CAA Championships.
Delaware finished seventh at the conference championships in 2007-08, when the Blue Hens posted three third place finishes and one fourth place finish.
The Blue Hens improved in 2008-09 under Keogh, as UD placed among the top five in eight of 10 tournaments on the year. Delaware captured the Cornell Invitational, and came in second at the Navy and Scotty Duncan Invitationals. Justin Martinson earned medalist honors at the George Washington and Lafayette Invitationals during the spring season, and the Blue Hens finished seventh at the CAA Championships.
Keogh led Delaware to his most successful season in 2009-10, as the Blue Hens won a school-record four consecutive tournaments during the fall of 2009. After winning its own Scotty Duncan Memorial, UD then captured the Joe Agee Invitational and Lincoln Mercury Intercollegiate before closing the run with a victory at the Andrew Geyer Memorial Classic.
The Blue Hens posted two other top-five finishes during the spring, and later placed sixth at the CAA Championship. Additionally Keogh oversaw an incredible season by Justin Martinson, who became the first UD golfer to win a conference title by earning medalist honors with a four-shot victory at the CAA Tournament. Martinson, who set a Blue Hen single-season record for lowest average round, finished 13th at the NCAA Regionals and won two other tournaments on the year.
Delaware continued its strong run during the 2010-11 campaign, finishing among the top 10 in all but two tournaments while claiming team titles at the Navy Fall Classic and Villanova Invitational. Martinson earned first team All-CAA honors, while he concluded his career as the school's career leader in lowest stroke average.
Additionally, Martinson carded the two lowest rounds in Delaware history with a 64 at the Lincoln Mercury Intercollegiate and a 65 at the Navy Fall Classic, while fellow senior Kevin McLister fired a pair of 66 rounds.
Keogh led the Blue Hens to another strong year in 2011-12, which featured six top-five finishes including defending the team title at the Navy Fall Classic. In the spring Matthias became the second Blue Hen in three years to claim the CAA title, as he earned medalist honors at nearby Wilmington Country Club.
Keogh lettered in 1972 during his career playing under legendary head coach Scotty Duncan, helping the team post an 11-7 dual record and a fourth place finish at the Middle Atlantic Conference championships.
