This is an interesting topic that I thought would generate good discussion.
Should we be taking away our investment from educating our nations leaders?
Is the TA program a benefit that is worth keeping?
Where should our investments (I say investment because I believe education is an investment into America's future) be going if not to there?
Is there anyone on this forum that benefited from tuition assistance due to serving our country? What are your thoughts? I am in college right now.. a few hotheaded people spoke strongly about the government taking this away. Others talked about duty, service, and honor above benefits.
See here:
To all my battle buddies: I'm just as pissed off as all of you are, if not more about TA being cut. However, we all need to remember to upkeep the Army Values, especially selfless service in this point in time. Sure, we all joined for different reasons including school and financial benefits, but we shouldn't forget that we all joined to protect what we love. Just as our brothers and sisters who have served before us, we are going to experience hard times. At one point, all we wanted as soldiers was a pack of cigarettes or dry feet. I'm still extremely upset, but we all need to look at this with a little perspective and not lose our minds before taking action.

I have had some new ideas for the IPv6 implementation in KDE. First and foremost, I thought that maybe I should not try to make it in kdelibs, but in QT. I have seen that KDE and QT duplicate a lot of code and effort, like QSocket and KSocket, QUrl and KURL. So, question is: would we all benefit more from a IPv6-transparently-enabled QSocket or KSocket?
Let me emphasize the word transparent. Both QSocket and KSocket already support IPv6 in a manner or another. But neither implementation is good enough, to the point that KSocket's implementation is practically non-existant. Even if the preprocessor directives were enabled in KSocket, it still wouldn't work.
I am currently aiming to make my work to kdelibs. That is, all the code left behind in QT would be left unused. However, there's (so far) nothing preventing change into QT (read: KSocketAddress and others would fit nicely in QSocketAddress).
Problem with QT is: QSocket would change signature, while KSocket wouldn't necessarily have to.

The secret to this creamy, slow-cooked casserole is simple canned soup, extra cheese, and smooth enchilada sauce.
Instead of cream of mushroom soup, try cream of broccoli or cream of celery soup.
While the enchiladas finish cooking, bake up a batch of cornbread. For a salad, toss together leaf lettuce, diced avocado, mandarin orange slices and a favorite dressing.

10 Stars Show Off Their SPANX! The Latest Wardrobe Malfunction To Hit Hollywood!
Peek-a-boo SPANX is the latest epidemic to sweep Hollywood! Major a-listers may rely on shapewear underneath their clothes — but lately they've been peeking out and showing up all over the place!
Shapewear used to be Hollywood's best kept secret — until now! From the red carpet to the stage, gorgeous gals including Kim Kardashian, Selena Gomez, Katy Perry, Jennifer Lopez and Blake Lively, to name a few, have fallen victim to the latest wardrobe malfunction — peek-a-boo SPANX! Shapewear is definitely a necessity — but it's not meant to be seen! See all the major a-listers here.
So far we've spotted the shapewear of the stars peeking out under super short hemlines, like they most recently did on Kim — but that's not the only place they've turned up! When Blake worked a seriously sexy Chanel dress with a sheer panel around her stomach the waistline of her SPANX was clearly visible.
Actresses and reality stars aren't the only ones who have fallen victim to the latest epidemic — singers seem to be just as susceptible! While Selena and Beyonce showed off their little shorts on stage, Rihanna took it one step further and boldly wore short shorts over her long SPANX on her video shoot.
Sure, it's a little embarrassing when the shapewear that isn't meant to be seen by anyone is totally visible, but it's way better than flashing your privates. Rather than feeling totally mortified, these stars should commend themselves for wearing the appropriate undergarments and looking so chic in their get-ups!
What do you think? Have your SPANX ever showed — and if so, was it totally embarrassing or not a big deal at all?

Mayhew inaugurates political lecture series
Posted March 5, 2009; 10:16 a.m.
David Mayhew, the Sterling Professor of Political Science at Yale University, will inaugurate the Princeton Lecture Series in Politics and Public Affairs with three talks at 4:30 p.m. Monday through Wednesday, March 9-11, in Robertson Hall.
The new lecture series will feature outstanding scholars of American politics and policy speaking on topics of pressing concern for the United States. Mayhew's talks are:
- "Congress and the Presidency: Dissonance in their Electoral Bases?" on March 9 in Dodds Auditorium;
- "What Happens to White House Legislative Proposals?" on March 10 in Dodds Auditorium; and
- "Reform as a Property of the System" on March 11 in 16 Robertson Hall.
Mayhew's research concerns U.S. legislative behavior, political parties and policymaking. His most recent book, "Parties and Policies: How the American Government Works" (2008), examines political parties, politicians, elections and policymaking to discover why public policy emerges in the shape that it does. His other works include "Party Loyalty Among Congressmen," "Congress: The Electoral Connection" and "Congressional Elections: The Case of the Vanishing Marginals."
The lecture series is sponsored by the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, Princeton University Press and the Center for the Study of Democratic Politics. The talks will be compiled into book form and published by Princeton University Press.

EMA nod for Genzyme's matrix-induced autologous chondrocyte implantation (MACI) for repair of symptomatic, full-thickness knee cartilage defects
Singapore: European Medicines Agency's (EMA) Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) has recommended marketing authorization for Genzyme's matrix-induced autologous chondrocyte implantation (MACI), an advanced-therapy medicinal product (ATMP), for the repair of symptomatic, full-thickness cartilage defects of the knee of three-to-20 cm2 in skeletally mature adult patients.
A number of surgical procedures aiming to repair cartilage have been developed to treat patients with articular cartilage defect of the knee. One of them is autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI), a therapy based on tissue engineering which was first described in 1994. It uses chondrocytes, or cartilage cells, which are derived from the patient's own cartilage, grown outside the patient's body and then transplanted into the patient's lesions after several weeks. The benefit of ACI over other restoration techniques is that larger lesions can be treated.
MACI is a third-generation ACI product. Contrary to the previous generations, MACI uses a scaffold formed of porcine collagen on which autologous chondrocytes are seeded. At implantation, the scaffold is trimmed to the size and shape of the cartilage defect. The cells/collagen structure is held in place in the lesion with fibrin glue.
Being an ATMP, MACI was evaluated by the Agency's Committee for Advanced Therapies (CAT), which gave a positive opinion for the approval of MACI at its April 2013 meeting. The CHMP has now confirmed the CAT's opinion. Since the introduction of the European Union (EU) regulation on advanced therapies in 2007, the centralized procedure has become compulsory for ATMPs, such as gene-therapy, somatic cell-therapy or tissue-engineered medicines.
MACI was already authorized in certain EU countries before the regulation came into force, but in order to comply with the European legislation on ATMPs it had to be evaluated through the centralized procedure. MACI has now become the first combined tissue-engineering product recommended for approval across the EU. The CHMP opinion on MACI will now be sent to the European Commission for adoption of a marketing-authorization decision.

Well, my first diary entry. Finally I get around to seeing what all the fuss is about.
My main interest at the moment is getting more young people involved in free software projects. I know there are patches of people who are very committed to OSS, but these people seem to be few and far between. From my observations at my school and surrounding ones, Microsoft seems to have won. This is not a good thing.
I think that we need to do more to encourage young people to use free software, play with it, get used to it, and then recommend it to others. If we don't do this, the free software generation will collectively age, until we all die, which cannot be a good thing.
I'm on holidays at the moment, so everything is pretty relaxed. Went shopping for CDs yesterday. Didn't buy anything, but found a nice Laurent Garnier CD. I'm also getting in a Delicatessen CD.
These holidays I'm working on people skills. Quite often I'll hardly say anything to anyone all day, so I plan on practicing being nice and what have you. I also need to get a SO to win a bet.
Anyway, enough for a first entry.

Get the Wolves newsletter
09:32 28th February 2014
Batth maintaining form and focus
"Ask me at the end of the season!" – that's the message from Danny Batth about Wolves' push for promotion from Sky Bet League One.
The popular defender, enjoying an excellent season at the heart of the Wolves defence, is simply not allowing himself to get carried away with anything until the team have achieved what they set out to achieve which would be to climb into the Championship.
And the old adage of 'taking one game at a time' is very true for a Wolves team ready to welcome Port Vale to Molineux tomorrow (3pm).
"It's a case of looking at what we have got to do in the next game and focusing one game at a time," says Batth.
"We are a fairly new team which has had to gel and I think as your understanding gets better the cohesion improves and so have performances.
"A big part about recent results has been finding a good consistency but also everyone keeping their feet on the ground.
"We've had a few new players coming in during the season which has also given us a lift whilst also getting to grips with the league a bit more.
"It was a tight game at times against Brentford, especially during the first half and before we got the first goal.
"We had to stay very focused, particularly as a back four, and with any game you are always looking for that first goal to give you a base to build from.
"It was good to beat a team around us in the table but we certainly aren't getting carried away.
"It's another three points on the board and doesn't matter too much where they come from – with that game gone it's now about trying to get the next result.
"There is still work to be done and we just need to keep winning games and winning enough games to get where we want to be at the end of the season.
"We've not done anything yet – if you ask me in 15 games time we'll know for sure whether it's been a success.
"The Brentford game was another win and I don't think after the game the supporters will have got too carried away.
"They will realise that there is still a lot of play for.
"A lot of our games are away from home as well and that has to be taken into account.
"It's just a case of steadying the ship and keeping ticking along."
Steadying the ship this season has certainly included tightening up the 'goals against' column which has seen Wolves emerge as currently the meanest defence in the country.
Batth is enjoying his central defensive partnership with Richard Stearman, but says that record is down to the efforts of the whole team.
"It's the sign of a good back four and a good goalkeeper to keep clean sheets but we certainly don't underestimate the amount of work the lads in front of us do.
"They all work very hard for us as well.
"It comes from a team mentality, a record like we have, which is something we have tried to creatre and now want to build on.
"I have known Stears for a long time and we have played a lot of football together.
"I think it is a partnership with a really good balance to it and we have got the sort of understanding that comes when you have played alongside someone for a while.
"It starts to become natural in terms of what happens next.
"Now we're looking a real threat going forward as well.
"Sometimes you don't need to over-complicate things and a lot of the time it's about consistency and enthusiasm and making sure you are fully prepared for when the games come along."

- Description
The world's largest known mineral clay lick, where hundreds of parrots and macaws of up to 15 species congregate daily to ingest the detoxifying clay, is located less than 500 meters from Tambopata Research Center.
The 1994 National Geographic article on macaws begins with a vivid description of their activity at the Tambopata Research Center clay lick : " When the morning sun clears the Amazon tree line in southeastern Peru and strikes a gray-pink clay bank on the upper Tambopata River, one of the world´s most dazzling wildlife spectacles is nearing its riotous peak. The steep bank has become a pulsing, 130 foot high palette of red, blue, yellow and green as more than a thousand parrots squabble over choice perches to grab a beakful of clay, a vital but mysterious part of their diet. More than a dozen parrot species will visit the clay lick throughout the day, but this midmorning crush belongs to the giants of the parrot world, the macaws."
Clay licks, or "collpas" in Quechua, are simply high concentration deposits of minerals that are hard to come by in the rain forest. For parrots and macaws they come in the form of river bank clay deposits, but mammals sometimes gather around exposed soil in the ground, monkeys lick tree trunks with sediments and butterflies flutter about beaches where nutrient- rich liquids have evaporated. Clay licks are thus a widespread and not so uncommon phenomenon in the rain forest.
Without a doubt the most popular wildlife spectacle around Tambopata Research Center, and the one for which Tambopata is the most famous for is the macaw clay lick, less then 300 meters from the lodge itself. This particular clay lick is a huge, 50 meter tall cliff of reddish clay that extends for about 500 meters along the west bank of the Tambopata River. Although many clay licks are known to exist along the streams and rivers of the Tambopata Candamo Reserved Zone, the one in Tambopata is not only the largest known, but also the only one where Blue-and-gold macaws are known to descend to eat clay. On many clear mornings of the year, literally hundreds of parrots and macaws flock to the lick putting up what has been described by several well traveled celebrities that have witnessed it as one of the world's great wildlife spectacles.

My expectations have been shattered quite a bit lately
I started working on my website last week. I started selecting the photos that I want to post on it. That made me start thinking. Having doubts again. I have some spectacular photos, but who's going to buy them? Can I make a living out of selling them? There are a lot of awesome photographers out there with amazing photos. Then I start thinking about the book I haven't started writing. There are over 200,000 books published every year. Very few are best sellers. How am I going to make a living? Reality check! Am I Dreaming?
The kids came for Christmas and we had an amazing time
On New Year's Eve at Epcot when midnight came about and everybody was embracing and cheering I looked on and smiled. It felt good being on the sidelines watching all this Happiness. I think it's part of the experience that we all should go through. We should all experience being alone some time. Really alone, because even in being physically alone we never really are. When we really listen to our heart we can feel the presence of all those who love us. The thing is that when we have friends and family around us we tend to forget to listen to our heart. There's a physical presence but the emotional presence is missing.
Disney promotes the idea that it's the place Where Dreams Come True! Watching the Dream Along with Mickey presentation I felt something Magical. Observing the crowds, adults and kids alike, I could feel a Magical presence envelop everyone. Children see things in wide eyed amazement. Disney brings out the kid in all of us and I think that's a good thing. If only there was a way to perpetuate that feeling when people return to the outside world. Make them forget about the stresses of life. Stresses that are often self-induced based on fear. I talked with a lot of "Cast Members", (Disney staff) and observed even more of them. They all looked like they were enjoying themselves. Why can't we all have jobs where we can enjoy ourselves? Have fun!
I've never been a crowd person. I hate waiting in lines. Being around screaming kids has always frustrated me. I walk fast and always want to get somewhere and have stuff to do. But I've changed. It's the busiest time at Disney and there are a lot of people. Screaming kids. Slow walkers. Wall to wall people. But it didn't bother me one bit. For some reason I was just enjoying myself through all this. I had a great time at Disney.
When the kids where here Katrine was reading a book called The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
This past week I've been watching the Bourne trilogy DVDs. I received the one DVD as a Christmas gift and purchased the first two DVDs in the series on Christmas day when we went to Virgin Music in Downtown Disney. As a teenager I had read most of Robert Ludlum's novels
I went to Paulo Coehlo's website and read his biography. Though he wrote The Alchemist when he was 40, it didn't become a best seller until he wrote and published his next novel a few years later.
Though I've been having my doubts this past week about the possibility of success about the path I am currently following, the coincidences lately plus the message written within this book I have just read reaffirms my conviction that what I am doing is right. I do recommend that you all read this amazing book. Disney may be the place Where Dreams Come True, but when you really want something and listen to your heart, the whole Universe conspires to help you realize that dream, without the visit to Disney.
The Alchemist reminded me of what I know but have forgotten. We all need reminders once in a while.

By Barry Wilner/The Associated Press
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Oh, brother!
John Harbaugh and his Baltimore Ravens set up a family reunion at the Super Bowl, shutting down the New England Patriots 28-13 Sunday in the AFC championship game.
The Ravens reached their first Super Bowl in 12 years, thanks to three touchdown passes from Joe Flacco and a defense led by Ray Lewis that made Tom Brady look downright ordinary.
Next up for Harbaugh and the Ravens is baby brother Jim and the San Francisco 49ers, who beat Atlanta 28-24 earlier in the day for the NFC title.
They'll meet in two weeks in New Orleans — what a place for a party to celebrate the first brother-vs.-brother coaching matchup in Super Bowl history.
It also will be quite a last game for Lewis, the emotional linebacker who will retire after the matchup with the 49ers, who opened as a 5-point favorite.
Driven by Lewis' pending departure from the NFL, Baltimore's defense stepped up in the playoffs. Brady was 67-0 at home when leading at halftime, but this was no contest in the second half.
It also was a first for the Patriots, who hadn't lost an AFC championship at home.
After they had avenged last year's AFC title game loss at Gillette Stadium, many of the Ravens gathered on the field jumping, chest-bumping and whooping before several thousand fans wearing Ravens jerseys — mostly Lewis' No. 52 — who remained in the stands.
As in the previous two playoff wins against Indianapolis and Denver, the Ravens (13-6) were brilliant offensively in spots. This might be 17-year-veteran Lewis' team, but it's also Flacco's, and the quarterback's six road wins are the most in playoff history.
"It was pretty awesome," Flacco said. "We were here last year and thought we had it, but came up a little short. Guys came out in the second half and made plays. … We put pressure on them like that, and it worked pretty well."
Flacco, the only quarterback to win a playoff game in each of his first five seasons, was dynamic with his arm and precise with his decision making. Looking much more the championship passer than Brady did, his throws of 11 and 3 yards to Anquan Boldin and 5 to Dennis Pitta all were perfect.
New England (13-5) lost a home AFC title matchup for the first time in five home games. The loss denied Brady and coach Bill Belichick a shot at their sixth Super Bowl. They've gone 3-2, losing their last two times in the big game.
Instead, it's the AFC North champion Ravens heading to the Big Easy, seeking their second NFL championship. San Francisco has won five.
"This is our time. This is our time," Lewis said as he and a few teammates were receiving the AFC championship trophy. "All these men out there, there might just be only five of us up here, but every man out there sacrificed this year for each other, and man, we did it and we're on our way to the Super Bowl. That's awesome."
The Ravens have gotten there the hard way, with no postseason bye. Then again, five of the last seven Super Bowl champions took that route.
The Ravens also were pushed into a second overtime in frigid Denver last weekend before eliminating Peyton Manning and the top-seeded Broncos.
And now they've cast aside the league's most successful franchise of the last dozen years.
New England (13-5), which hasn't won a Super Bowl since the 2004 season, had four injuries, the scariest when running back Stevan Ridley was knocked flat by Bernard Pollard in the fourth quarter, forcing a fumble. Baltimore turned that into the final touchdown, on the only short scoring drive it had, 47 yards.

The father and mother of Adelaide Procter were both so highly gifted, and their household was page: 158 known to so many surviving friends, that it is only fitting their names should precede her own, although she achieved a greater fame; yet there were years when "Barry Cornwall" was known to all, and when his songs were sung all over England. Two of them, "The sea, the sea, the open sea," and the "Return of the Admiral," have their permanent place, though many of his charming and poetic pages have sunk into comparative oblivion. In his own person he was a refined and somewhat silent man, with a head said to resemble Sir Walter Scott's in miniature, and he was extremely beloved by the literary world. But he lived an interior life, into which, I think, none but his wife ever penetrated. He was profoundly attached to her, and she was for ever shielding him from the wind that blew too roughly. He had many sorrows, and death twice visited his household under most pathetic circumstances. To ward off blows from "Brian" and to sustain him with her own abundant strength, was Mrs. Procter's constant care, and in this she showed a side of her character wholly unsuspected by the outer world.page: 159
Mr. Procter was born so long ago as 1787, and was not far from forty when he married the lovely girl, Anne Skepper, who had been brought up in the home of her stepfather, Basil Montagu. Bryan Walter Procter came from the North of England. He was educated at Harrow, and spent his holidays at the house of a great‐uncle who lived about a dozen miles from London; and his first real instructress in literature was a female servant, born in a better station of life, who had read Richardson and Fielding and worshipped Shakespeare. She used to recite whole scenes to the boy, and encouraged him to buy a Shakespeare of his own. "But," says he, "I had not leisure to study and worship my Shakespeare long, for at the end of a month or six weeks my destiny drove me back to school." There he had two schoolfellows, boys named Robert Peel and George Gordon Byron. Of Byron, Mr. Procter says that he then showed no signs of poetic grace. "He was loud, even coarse, and very capable of a boy's vulgar enjoyments. He played at hockey and racquets, and was occasionally engaged in pugilistic encounters." Of himself he says he was neither page: 160 very short nor very tall, neither handsome nor hideous. He survived Byron for fifty years, seeing the dawn, the zenith, and the partial oblivion of his fame.
He led a hard‐working life in London as a barrister, and later in a Government office.
In looking through the memoir published in his widow's lifetime, I was chiefly struck by a letter in which he describes his study, and says, regretfully, that he has never been abroad, never seen Italy or France, he, the poet and the lover of Italian art; and by another letter about the page: 161 Indian Mutiny, in which "Our son (the only son I have, indeed) escaped from Delhi." He tells how this young man, left to him after the death of his eldest boy Edward, had been in Delhi, and how he and four or five other officers, four women, and a child, escaped. The men were "obliged to drop the women a fearful height from the walls of the fort amidst showers of bullets. They were seven days and seven nights in the jungle without money or meat, scarcely any clothes, no shoes. They forded rivers, lay on the wet ground at night, lapped water from the puddles, and finally reached Meerut."
Montagu Procter married some years later the youngest of the ladies here spoken of. At the time of the Mutiny she was a girl of fifteen. He became eventually a general, and, returning to England, survived his father, but predeceased his mother, who, indeed, lost successively all her children save two.
Of Mrs. Procter much will inevitably be written in future years. She was a very remarkable person, and lived in possession of almost unbroken health and faculties until nearly ninety. As a girl ("my dearest girl," writes the page: 162 poet during his betrothal) she had been extremely pretty. She was an early playmate of my mother's, but my memory of her dates from her middle age, and extends over nearly fifty years. She was the daughter by a first marriage of Mrs. Basil Montagu, and always spoke of her mother with the greatest reverence. But of the race of poets to which she was inextricably bound, she spoke with a half‐laughing satire. One was evidently her life‐long lover, and one was her child, and several others clustered about her like bees. She did not exactly hold a salon; there was no great fortune in the household, nor any sort of pretension whatever, and Mrs. Procter gave one the impression of having her hands very full; but everybody of any literary pretension whatever seemed to flow in and out of the house. The Kembles, the Macreadys, the Rossettis, the Dickens, the Thackerays, never seemed to be exactly visitors, but to belong to the place. Three of the daughters became Catholic, and Mrs. Procter, who, I imagine, did not dwell much on the next world, stood between them and the sensitive father, to whom the loss of close union was a great misery. I used to think it infinitely page: 163 touching to see Mrs. Procter trying to harmonize the household. If "Brian" could be kept cheerful and if nobody was ill (and, alas! somebody was very often ill), then the quick vivid mother of the family seemed content. She had a habit of going into the world, a habit of dressing fashionably, a habit of writing the nearest and most concise notes possible; but her consistent, steady kindness had assuredly some deep spiritual root, of which she never spoke. Like her mother, she never abdicated for a moment her great tenue, never kept her room, never lowered the scale of her dress, never lost her composure; I should doubt if in sixty years a meal had ever been placed upon the table which she had not herself ordered. It was my fate to be very closely associated with her under circumstances in which ninety‐nine people out of a hundred would have broken down, and yet when she lost her daughters, it was their friend whom she tried to spare. I particularly remember her taking me with her to the Catholic cemetery in Kensal Green to plant a quantity of ivy on Adelaide's grave. I can see her kneeling at the headstone, twisting the sprays, with a face of anxious, page: 164 steady determination. That grave is now a place of pilgrimage to American and Colonial travellers. It is thickly overgrown with ivy, but nobody guesses that the mother planted it herself.
Many years afterwards, Edythe Procter died very suddenly—indeed, in a manner truly tragical—failure of the heart's action. Mrs. Procter was then more than eighty; and before the announcement could traverse the Continent in the newspapers, came a careful letter, addressed to a delicate friend at Mentone, and on the corner of the envelope two tiny, neatly‐written words, "Bad News."
Such were the environments of Adelaide Procter's life—a short life, for she died at the age of thirty‐eight. Of outward incidents, apart from the sudden blossoming of her literary fame, there were scarcely any. The year spent in Italy, where her aunt, Madame de Viry, was attached to the Court circle at Turin, was certainly a determining influence on her life. Emily de Viry had become a devout Catholic, and at that time the saintly wife of Victor Emmanuel was living. The example impressed page: 165 Adelaide's mind, and doubtless contributed to her religious change. At Aix‐les‐Bains is a large portrait en pied of the young Queen of Sardinia in her bridal dress. It looks, at first sight, to be a purely conventional picture, but the eyes are of a haunting depth. They recall a word‐picture of the Queen returning from Holy Communion, which Adelaide Procter gave. The wife of Victor Emmanuel was passing along one of the galleries of the Palace, her face "shining as with an interior lamp," when she was met by the young English girl, who never forgot the sight. Of this association Adelaide Procter always bore the trace. In her religious attitude she resembled a foreign rather than an English Catholic. She looked like a Frenchwoman mounting the steps of the Madeleine, or a veiled Italian in St. Peter's. The one thing she never mentioned was her own conversion.
One of Miss Procter's sisters, named Agnes, joined the order of the Irish Sisters of Mercy; and in looking back to our childhood I best remember her, as the nearer to my own age.
In 1840 the Procters lived in St. John's Wood, page: 166 and used to visit their grandparents in Storey's Gate; and in this house it must have been that two children were sitting by the fireside one evening. There was no other light in the room, and Agnes Procter (Sister Mary Francis) suddenly made a confidence; saying, in a tone of intense childish conviction, "I do love mama." These words made an ineffaceable impression on the hearer, for the little speaker was never supposed to be at all imaginative, and certainly Mrs. Procter did not pose before the world as a tender woman—rather the reverse—though her intimates knew her for a very good and kind one. And the last time that I saw Sister Mary Francis she was kneeling by that mother's open grave at Kensal Green, her sincere, gentle face, under its veil, looking but little changed since the day of her profession some thirty years before. It may not be irrelevant to add that shortly after her somewhat unexpected death after a few days' illness, the Reverend Mother spoke of Sister Mary Francis' great and unusual affection for her mother as of a profound sentiment rarely noticed either in or out of the religious life. It was the sweet soul's one page: 167 earthly romance. I do not know in what light Mrs. Procter's memory will go down to posterity when the letters and memoirs of the generation in which she played so large a social part come to be written and published; but this image of her as enshrined in her daughter's heart should be recorded, for it is true.
Of the gifted eldest daughter the mother was intensely proud, and well may she have been, for a more vital spirit never inhabited a finely‐wrought frame. Adelaide Anne Procter was so curiously unlike her poems, and yet so distinct in individuality, that it is a pity she was not painted by any artist capable of rendering her singular and interesting face. There was something of Dante in the contour of its thin lines, and the colouring was a pale, delicate brown, which harmonized with the darker hair, while the eyes were blue, less intense in hue than those of Shelley; and like his also was the exquisitely fine, fluffy hair, which when ruffled stood out in a halo round the brow. A large oil painting of her exists, done, I believe, by Emma Galiotti, and it is like her as she appeared in a conventional dress and a most lugubrious mood, but the real page: 168 woman was quite different. She had a forecast of the angel in her face and figure, but it was of the Archangel Michael that she made one think. There was something spirited and almost militant in her aspect, if such a word can be applied to one so exquisitely delicate and frail. She was somewhat older than myself, and therefore, while I remember Agnes as a little girl, my first distinct memory of Adelaide dates from a period when she was already grown up, and had returned from Turin.
In her manner and dress she bore all the marks of a very exquisite breeding. She was conversant with foreign languages, knew French and Italian well, and wrote a peculiarly clear and delicate hand. One of her minor accomplishments was that of illumination. Monsignor Gilbert possessed two excellent examples of her skill in this unusual art. In her youth she danced lightly and well. All these little details go to make up the portrait of a very charming personality.
She was already thirty before her name had been heard, except as that of Barry Cornwall's "sweet, beloved First Born." Her poems circu‐ page: 169 lated circulated among friends, just as Rossetti's used to do, being copied from hand to hand. Then one was sent by her anonymously to Charles Dickens, and inserted by him in a Christmas number of Household Words. Dickens thus tells the story:—"Happening one day to dine with an old and dear friend, distinguished in literature as 'Barry Cornwall,' I took with me an early proof of the Christmas number of Household Words, entitled 'The Seven Poor Travellers,' and remarked, as I laid it on the drawing‐room table, that it contained a very pretty poem, written by a certain Miss Berwick. Next day brought me a disclosure that I had so spoken of the poem to the mother of the writer in the writer's presence; that I had no such correspondent in existence as Miss Berwick, and that the name had been assumed by Barry Cornwall's daughter, Miss Adelaide Anne Procter."
From this time forward, I forget the year, she continued to write in Household Words, and the poems attracted so much attention that people used to pretend they had written them. When they were at length collected into volume, with the writer's name attached, they page: 170 rushed into fame, and circulated all over the kingdom; and Miss Procter received a pathetic appeal from a young lady, who asked her could it be true that these lovely verses were all hers, for her lover had been in the habit of assuring her, as each poem successively appeared, that it was his own! Twelve editions followed one another, and five years after, the demand for her poems was still "far in excess of that for the writings of any living poet except Mr. Tennyson." I think it caused her a feeling of shyness amounting to pain to have so far outstripped her poet‐father in popular estimation. "Papa is a poet. I only write verses."
It remains to say a few words about her poems. Since for years they had a larger sale than those of any other poet save Tennyson, they must have penetrated into every reading household in Great Britain. Of late, however, their popular fame seems chiefly to repose on the "Lost Chord," nobly set to music by Sir Arthur Sullivan. It is wonderful to see the enthusiasm infused by this page: 173 song. The vast audience of St. James's Hall thrills as one man when it is given. But in the beauty of the narrative poems, and in the profound depth of feeling of those which have an autobiographical source, the student of Victorian literature will, I am convinced, find permanent delight; and that many verses and many lines will survive may be inferred from that perfection of form which is essential to lasting fame. Miss Procter always used the plainest words to convey her thought, the simplest, choicest words to express her feeling. Some of those which deal with the human heart are wonderfully sweet and subtle.
- "If you break your plaything yourself, dear,
- Don't you cry for it all the same?
- I don't think it is such a comfort,
- One has only oneself to blame.
- "People say things cannot be helped, dear,
- But then that is the reason why;
- For if things could be helped or altered,
- One would never sit down to cry."
- "Why, our criminals all are sheltered,
- They are pitied, and taught, and fed;
- That is only a sister—woman,
- Who has got neither food nor bed—
- And the Night cries, 'Sin to be living,'
- And the River cries, 'Sin to be dead.'"
¹ Now that Monsignor Gilbert has been withdrawn from our midst, there is no reason for refraining to say that he, who was her confessor, and whom she certainly trusted above all, read through this paper and ratified it with his approval.page: 176
- "Nay; goods in our thrifty England
- Are not left to lie and grow rotten;
- For each man knows the market value
- Of silk, or woollen, or cotton...
- But in counting the riches of England,
- I think our Poor are forgotten!"
And lastly, I have been told upon the highest authority that her personal habits of piety were of the most fervent and consistent kind. The intensity of her susceptible nature found expression and support in her faith. She was strengthened in much suffering, and consoled in much grief, by ardent love of God. She never failed in courage when to publicly confess obedience to the Catholic Church demanded strength of no usual sort, for her lot was cast among those who did not acknowledge the claim; and she, who was eminently delicate in fibre and subject to many fears, went down by slow degrees into the page: 177 "valley of the shadow of Death," with a cheerful heroism rarely seen.
So we laid masses of snowdrops all about her, and for years the recurring sight of them brought back the vision of that calm spiritual face amidst the flowers. But of her, more than of others, it truly appeared that only the frail worn envelope lay there. While on earth she had habitually dwelt in the spiritual world; and into its inner depths, behind the veil, the Lord, whom she so well loved, had led her, by a long and painful path, so that it seemed to those who knew her as if by an almost imperceptible vanishing she had been withdrawn from their eyes. page: 178 Edythe now lies in the same grave in the Catholic Cemetery at Kensal Green, and the names of the two sisters are folded in the ivy which their mother planted there.

Truck Yard: It is so totally not awesome
UPDATE: I have added two details to the original post for clarification: The Mexican ingredient truck was sponsored by Cacique, and I visited the park at about 1 p.m.
After a failed attempt to eat lunch with a friend on Thursday (failed in the sense that there was so little edible in what we were attempting to enjoy that we were still hungry when we left), I thought I had a brilliant idea: We'd stop at the new Truck Yard and pick up something fun and tasty. There's been a lot of excitement in town — or at least in Dallas food blogosphere — about the food truck park just off lower Greenville, and this would give me a nice chance to check it out. It's just across Sears St. from the new Trader Joe's.
We drove there, we parked, we ventured in, and then hey! Reality check time! Are you sitting down? Truck Yard only had two food trucks. No, not 22 — two! This is what everyone so excited about? Really, kids? Are we kidding? It was about 1 p.m.
The place is pretty cool-looking, with lots of funky backyard furniture, a bar set up in a converted Airstream trailer, another in a tree house and a third in a permanent building. But where were all the food trucks? They must be here somewhere. All we found was the Ssahm BBQ truck (Korean tacos) and a taco truck sponsored by a Mexican ingredient company, Cacique. I've sampled Korean tacos and such from Ssahm, but I'd been hoping to find something fresh and different I hadn't tried. Shouldn't be much of a challenge in a food truck park, right? Wrong! We looked around and looked around, but couldn't find anything else to eat. We didn't even see Carnival Barker's, the ice cream truck featured in the Dallas Morning News' own slide show about the park. Not that an ice cream truck is an idea throbbing with originality. But still, we'd have gotten a cone.
We ventured into the permanent bar to ask the bartender if we were missing something. No, he said. Ssahm BBQ is the only permanent truck, we were told (mistakenly, as it turns out; it's not always there), and there's always a second truck, which rotates. He pointed us to a cheese steak sandwich place at the far end of the permanent structure. Didn't sound very appetizing.
This afternoon I tracked down Ariana Hajibashi, Truck Yard's publicist, to ask her what gives. When I told her there were only two trucks, she sounded surprised; she thought there were supposed to be three. But among them was not supposed to be a promotional one, she said. She did some checking into it, and got back to me. "We strive to have three," she said, "and sometimes the food trucks back out. It's still a work in progress with these trucks." She pointed me to a schedule on Truck Yard's website, where indeed three different trucks are listed for lunch and dinner each day. Listed for lunch on the day we went: Bobaddiction, Easy Slider and Ssahm BBQ. She told me Carnival Barker's was definitely there, though. But it's not a truck, it's a window on the permanent building. Really? I didn't see it, and we were looking for something sweet. Turns out it's to the left of the entrance, beyond the signage that says this is not a public entrance.
You know what? Even if three trucks did bother to show up, unless they were three interesting trucks — and I'm wondering whether there even are three interesting food trucks in Dallas — that would be pretty darn lame.
Not awesome, dudes.

[QUOTE=M Remington;330933]Certain guns are made to kill people and certain guns are meant for hunting. An assault weapon is made to kill people.
Mark, I'm just guessing that I have a few years on you. I used to have similar thoughts and I did carry one of those "black guns" around for a couple of years courtesy of Uncle Sam. A co-worker of mine has owned one for quite a few years and uses it primarily for woodchucks. He's a level headed regular guy that I respect. I asked him one day why he didn't use a more "traditional" gun. His reply was simple. - "because I enjoy shooting it." Well, that was good enough for me. Just because it looks a little different doesn't mean it does anything differently. Once the antis get those banned, they turn around and say of today's traditional firearms. "these guns are just like assault rifles. They only look different." How do you establish a defense against that statement?

Al Lundeen - (916) 440-7259
Del Rosa Villa in San Bernardino has received a "AA" citation, the most severe penalty under state law, and a $90,000 fine after an investigation concluded that inadequate care led to the death of a resident, announced Dr. Mark Horton, director of the California Department of Public Health (CDPH).The facility failed to ensure that a patient's plan of care was implemented which resulted in the patient's death.All nursing facilities in California are required to be in compliance with applicable state and federal laws and regulations governing health care facilities. Facilities are required to comply with these standards to ensure quality of care.California has the statutory authority to impose fines against nursing facilities it licenses as part of enforcement remedies for poor care. State citations that require a civil monetary penalty be imposed are categorized as Class B, A or AA. The associated fines range from $100 to $1,000 for Class B, $2,000 to $20,000 for Class A and $25,000 to $100,000 for Class AA. The citation class and amount of the fine depend upon the significance and severity of the substantiated violation, as prescribed and defined in California law.By providing nursing facilities it licenses with consequences for substantiated violations, CDPH strives to protect the health and safety of vulnerable individuals. The citation process is part of CDPH's ongoing enforcement efforts in improving the quality of care provided to residents of the state's approximately 1,400 skilled nursing facilities.

I know that some of you have already heard about it, but I'm really excited with Bloodline Champions. It's something between 3v3 arenas k LoL, each game doesn't take 30+ minute to play and it's surprising fun and enjoyable. It has a high skillcap and it's quite polish. I made this video, reviewing and introducing to people that might never heard of it and I just wonder.
Why don't a lot of people play it? Have you try it yourselves?

Then you did not read it and those who complained did not read it. The author lauds the pro animal rights credentials of the candidates. It would be absurd to think I wrote it. That is how John figured it out -- he read it.That's what I thought it was. That's what those who complained to me thought it was.
Why would you move a post without reading it?Same to you my friend.Kevin, again, I sincerely do hope you had a wonderful family Christmas. I hope 2009 is a great new year for you and yours.

About the Author
Written by Adrian Fedkiw
I currently work for the Sports Network. It's the best job ever! I am a 2010 graduate of Temple University where I majored in broadcast journalism, I LOVE SPORTS! That's why I am here. I have a vast knowledge and want to share my athletic intelligence with the world. Some people like to spend their time shooting down aliens in Halo; I like to spend my time watching sports, current and old. It's my passion! I got asked one time how I can watch a game over again when I already know the outcome. 5 minutes later, he's watching Happy Gilmore reciting all of the lines from the movie. Hypocrite! As for my favorite sports teams, I've been a lifelong Philadelphia sports fan. My favorite athlete is Allen Iverson. He didn't like practice that much, but when it came to gametime, no one let it all out on the floor like Iverson. He is absolutely beloved in the city of Brotherly Love. For college athletics, obviously I pay close attention to Temple. (Yes, football too) Even before I stepped foot on Temple's campus for the 1st time in 2005, I was a fan. Oh the good old days of John Chaney! Some other tidbits about myself, I love cheesesteaks, I hydrate myself with Welch's Grape Juice and Snapple. I love the HBO show Entourage. Also, when is Kenny Powers making his much anticipated return in Eastbound and Down!

Has anyone seen the new PP packaging? Has the weight gone down again?
Has anyone seen the new PP packaging? Has the weight gone down again?
Tom Dorroh
Boston, GA
Purina sent me an email last week. Seems like performance will now be called "sport". Not sure if bag sizes will be affected. Here's what they sent:
David Cruz
Just picked up a bag tonight noticed the new bag and the 3.00 price increase. $46.99 Weight still the same.
Petsmart has $3 increase but 10% bigger bag
Well the have been holding out on me then, was only able to get the 34# bags for several years. Now getting the 37.5# bags, and they have 10% more plastered all over the bag.
I've never seen a 34lb bag of PPP, it has always been 37.5 down here.
I'm guessing its a reagional thing, different plants doing the bagging.

Kids who live in northern U.S. states are used to having class cancelled every now and then because of snow. But on Monday, a number of schools across the Northeast closed their doors for a different reason: dangerously cold outdoor temperatures.
Throughout the region, temperatures fell below zero. Schools in western and northern Pennsylvania, across upstate New York and parts of Vermont and New Hampshire cancelled classes or delayed openings to protect students from the cold.
The Big Chill
The wind chill in some parts of the Northeast made it feel as cold as 25 to 30 degrees below zero. Wind chill advisories—warnings about the danger of staying outside in the cold for too long—were issued throughout the region.
Even those northerners who are used to cold weather felt the effects of the frigid conditions. In Montpelier, Vermont, the temperature was -21º at 7 a.m. Kelly Walsh's car would not start, so she walked to an auto parts store to buy a new battery. "I usually really like [the cold]," she said. " Today is a bit of a nuisance."
"It takes your breath away if you're not ready for it," said Dan Giroux, who works at a snowmobile-rental shop in Greenville, Maine. Most of the store's vehicles went unused—for most people, it was too cold to ride around outside.
Staying Safe
At the Sugarloaf ski resort, in Maine, most people chose to stay inside. A number of lifts were shut down for safety reasons. Still, a handful of skiers ventured outside to the slopes. "We have a few people skiing—not many," said spokesperson Ethan Austin.
In New York, the city doubled the number of outreach vans it sends looking for homeless people on cold days. "Our priority is to make sure [people] are safe and warm," said Seth Diamond, who works for New York City's Department of Homeless Services.
The cold was expected to last until Tuesday. But more wintery weather is on the way: meteorologists say another snowstorm is approaching the Northeast.

Roger Goodell is ruining things and has way too much power. I used to like the two day draft that was done over the weekend. Now we have to wait another month for the draft.
Roger Goodell is ruining things and has way too much power. I used to like the two day draft that was done over the weekend. Now we have to wait another month for the draft.
I like the three day draft, I just wish it was the 1st & 2nd rounds on the first night, 3rd & 4th on the second night, & the rest on the last day.
The draft needs to head the other direction. I don't know why they're trying to make the coverage compete with the NBA Playoffs. Seems silly.
Twitter: @ckparrot
There is already a long enough stretch in the NFL with no news to speak of. Now you drag out that period between free agency and the draft even more. NASCAR ****ed around with its venue to the point that I can barely watch it anymore. Parity ruined NASACAR and parity and revenue stream are ruining the NFL.
The NHL, NBA, NASCAR and MLB all need to shorten the season, it seems like there is one continual season anymore and the NFL seems to want to follow that path of endlessness. Soon there will be 18 games and 2 pre-season games, then 4 pres-season games and 18 regular games plus one bye week, then two bye weeks again. If they expand the divisions by one team each (4 new teams) you now end up with one extra week of playoffs and on and on and on.
Before we know it the Super Bowl will be in late February. I'm not so sure moving this draft back isn't part of a bigger road-map already laid our by the NFL and owners for more revenue by expanding the market time by increasing the overall length of the season.
"Nonsense, I have not yet begun to defile myself."
wow not a fan of this in any way.what do we gain by waiting 2 more weeks.or should the real question be what does the league gain

Multimedia: Student
Video: Student work: 'Greening Princeton'
Posted July 8, 2010; 12:00 p.m.
Jack Hutton '13 documented the "Greening Fashion" show, in which student designers entered pieces made of objects that were reused or can be deemed sustainable. Read more.
Video Closed Captions
Sarah Chen:
Hi, I'm Sarah.
Chenyu Zheng:
I'm Chenyu.
Kelly Rouser:
I'm Kelly.
Chenyu Zheng:
And we are the organizers of the sustainable fashion contest.
Sarah Chen:
We gave very loose guidelines to any student
Sarah Chen:
designers who wanted to enter.
Sarah Chen:
Really we just asked them to create pieces out of anything
Sarah Chen:
that could be re-used, that could be deemed sustainable.
Chenyu Zheng:
We were also fortunate to collaborate with the Art Museum,
Chenyu Zheng:
which provided a special venue for the event.
Chenyu Zheng:
The format of the contest was each contestant would
Chenyu Zheng:
come up to the stage and present his or her piece,
Chenyu Zheng:
and then all four judges will ask questions.
Kelly Rouser:
So, one of the judges was Professor Patricia Brown.
Kelly Rouser:
Another judge was senior James Mister, and he's in
Kelly Rouser:
the Politics department.
Kelly Rouser:
And then a third judge was Nina. All I know was that she
Kelly Rouser:
was a fashion designer, so we just happened to meet her while
Kelly Rouser:
preparing for the competition.
Kelly Rouser:
And the fourth judge was Starre Varten, and she's the
Kelly Rouser:
eco-blogger that we invited earlier to speak during dinner.
So, the biggest problem with type 6
plastic is it has a very narrow window of when it's
melting and then when it goes past the point that it can
be heated and becomes brittle and unusable.
So, what I was interested in, because I do a lot of material
science, would be... was trying to find the point at which it
would slump and soften while still retaining
its malleability.
So, I wanted things that were beautiful and
thought-provoking but were also, at a very basic level,
practical and functional.
Chenyu Zheng:
And one art major, she used the used, leftover
Chenyu Zheng:
canvas from her art studio.
Chenyu Zheng:
So, it's all leftover material that happened
Chenyu Zheng:
to be thrown away into the trash.
Chenyu Zheng:
And one student, she used her own thesis.
Laura Bai:
I like to think of this as like a quintessentially
Laura Bai:
Princeton piece, because, well first you have the thesis, but
Laura Bai:
also a lot of people tend to drink a lot of caffeinated
Laura Bai:
beverages at Princeton.
So it was very much we were constantly bantering and
checking things out with each other, trying shoes
on for each other.
Very collaborative, the whole process, but tons of fun.
That's really the key. It was a project that we saw going into
it, going, "Wow, this could be a lot of fun for us to do, a way
to spend time and hang out, and that's what it should be about."
I think it's going to be kind of a major catalyst in
my life, both as a designer and as a chemist, because it really
reinforced what I've always suspected, which is that I
fundamentally love the design and materials, especially as
tied to their functionality, and I've always thought that I
was really most interested in architectural materials, and I
could -- after this experience -- I could really see myself going
into the design of fashion materials and maybe the
design of the fashion itself.

Learn everything you've always wanted to know about jewelry making tools with our excellent tools glossary. From pliers & cutters to beadweaving & metalworking tools, we want you to have all the information you need to master your creativity!
Flush cutters are a type of side cutter which provides extra precision and gives cut wire a close, clean edge, free of burrs or marks. Most cutters that produce a true flush cut are labeled as such, though some very high quality, basic side cutters will give a clean cut with only a minimal mark. Because flush cutters are designed to have such an exact and delicate touch they are easier to damage than more basic semi-flush side-cutters and even greater care should be taken to only use the appropriate wire gauges.
Side cutters are wire cutters that get their name from the fact that their beveled cutting edges are located to one side, not centered like scissors or other cutters that use a shearing action. Sometimes referred to as semi-flush, basic side cutters are the perfect general-purpose tool for cutting precious, plated, or basic craft wire. Side cutters used for jewelry and crafting are usually small, with a slightly tilted oval or tapered head. This allows for more ergonomic handling and easier access to tight spaces. Side wire cutters should NOT be used for cutting memory wire, heavy stainless steel, or cable-type wire.
Set an image, beads, or other keepsake with Amazing Glaze in one of our bezel pendants to create one-of-a-kind jewelry embellishments. Heat Amazing Glaze embossing powder with a toaster oven or conventional oven (at 275') to liquefy and simultaneously set it in 10-20 minutes. Amazing Glaze dries clear with a hard finish to protect the image.
These transparent glass domes work well when you place one over any pattern or photo inside a bezel jewelry component to magnify the image and make it sparkle like a gemstone. We recommend The Ultimate Glue when using this product.
The shaped punches that will help you cut paper shapes easily to fit inside our bezel pendants. These punches are also ideal for scrapbooking and other paper crafts.
Sized to fit ideally with our bezel pendants and other findings, you can cut out the collage or transfer sheets with our paper punches made to fit the findings perfectly. Glaze as desired with Diamond Glaze, ICE Resin or other resin products.
Sparkling, shimmering glitter is ideal to embellish your handmade jewelry components. Our collection includes ultrafine opaque glitter, ultrfine transparent, ultrafine hologram as well as vintage glass glitter and vintage glass shards. Suspend glitter in ICE Resin or Diamond Glaze encased in a bezel, and you'll create a personal focal piece for your jewelry. Our glitter products are ideal for general craft use, too.
Give ICE Resin and other resin products rich hues and a pearlescent shimmer with powdered PearlEx pigments. Mix in a small amount for transparency, or add more for greater opacity. Powdered pigments are also ideal for use with scrapbooking and rubberstamping products.
Use opaque liquid pigments with ICE Resin. Add a drop at a time to the mixed resin until you achieve the desired color.
Transparent Liquid Dyes work well with ICE Resin. Add a drop at a time to the mixed ICE Resin until you achieve the desired result.
Unleash your creativity by making your own molds with EasyMold Silicone Putty. This nontoxic, easy-to-use, versatile product enables you to make your own molds for use with resin. Shape the putty or impress it with objects of your choice. Silicone mold putty comes with full instructions.
Use these molds with ICE Resin. They come in a variety of sizes and fun shapes, including bangle forms to make bracelets and earring components.
Diamond Glaze is a water-based liquid adhesive that dries to a transparent, glass-like finish in 2-3 hours; and can be mixed with dye-based inks, watercolor and pigments.
ICE Resin, a nontoxic, jeweler's grade product, enables you to create unique pendants and other jewelry components. Developed by well-known artist and instructor Susan Lenart Kazmer, ICE Resin stays transparent without yellowing or breaking down. Pour the resin into a bezel or picture frame pendant, silicone mold or even on paper. Set images, charms, beads or other embellishments into the resin, and you have a gorgeous, custom-made piece.
Beaders can always use extra hands. Bead stoppers save you time and frustration with their functional designs. Use these bead stoppers on the end of your thread or beading wire while threading beads.
Jewelry Shield is the perfect solution if you are allergic to metals. It is a brush-on coating for jewelry that protects sensitive skin from irritation. As easy to use as nail polish, Jewelry Shield also prevents base metals from discoloring skin.
Use the Diva Cord Maker to create colorful beaded cords for jewelry and accessories. Based on an ancient multi-strand braiding technique made easier, the foolproof Diva Cord Maker is a handy, portable disc that enables you to create gorgeous, multi-fiber cords embellished with beads. It's so easy that kids love it, too! Use the beautifully textured cords as necklaces, bracelets, purse handles, trims and much more.
Use scissors to cut thread, cord, elastic, Fireline or PowerPro or use the scissors to cut out a collage or transfer sheet image.
With a heating element tip that melts and cauterizes thread, the Perfect End Thread Burner is a bead weaver's best friend. Use it to trim thread ends and keep them from fraying. This handy tool is ideal for use with K.O., FireLine, Nymo, Superlon and other synthetic beading threads. It runs on one AA battery (not included). You can get replacement tips from us too!
If you misplace your scissors easily, this thread cutter pendant combines the cutting edge of scissors with the convenience of a pendant.

The Go, nicknamed the "slalom racer with a sun deck" covers a wide range of use. With its excellent high-quality fin, this board reached an enormous top speed with a free-speed feeling just like a slalom board. The outboard footstrap position is therefore very suitable (but less useful for beginner).
Despite a considerable top speed, the board is still easily controllable, it shreds over choppy water and likes to go upwind virtually by itself. Due to the additional inside foot strap options and the very comfortable deck cover, The GO is also recommended for sailors in the early stages of planing and for kids to learn on easily.
On top of that, the Go is the most stable and difficult to tip-over board in non-planing conditions. For progressing, there is a second fin which is shallower and spares the precious race fin for full planing with a 8.5 meter sail.
Features such as the K9 anti-twist system of the foot straps or the carry handle give the GO additional credits. Merely during power jibes, the GO has less drive, it likes to plane rather unhurried through wide turns.
Surf Tip: an all-in-one board for the sportive family

As my first entry, let me define the situation a bit.
I am currently involved with a great Open Source project called WorldFor ge. I'm a newb, so I tackled a relatively small chunk of the project - varconf. Varconf is a configuration library, originally created by sdt for STAGE, WorldForge's primary server application. Varconf is small but quite functional and I am having a blast with it.
Varconf is designed to input configuration data from config files, environment variables or the command-line. It also has callback support to inform an application of a settings change.
Since I took over the library, I have made the following enhancements/changes to varconf:
- Adopted libsigc++ for callbacks.
- Added support for sections (as in a standard config file section) in command-line arguments.
- Implemented the environment variable input method (wasn't written yet when I took over the library)
- General code clean-up, commenting and what-not.
Not much but it is a start. Some future ideas I've come up with/had suggested to me:
- Enhance the data manipulation interface - currently there is no method for deleting an individual item or section from a config database.
- Re-implement the "Observer" class - Observers in Varconf were auto-update objects that stored a copy of a single config item for quick access. There were some problems with the implementation so I removed them temporarily.
- Convert the file parser to lex/yacc - I have some concerns but if doable, this would make the parser far easier to work with.
- Add an interface for warnings - currently, if erroroneous data appears that varconf can handle without dying, it does so without a complaint. Keeps the lib simple but makes reporting typos and the like difficult.
More will come with time I'm sure. That is all.

I was so focused on getting the initial release out the door that I plum forgot the most important thing! I forgot to test the release! Damn thing didn't even compile. D'oh!
The reason is simple; there was a class named Assoc which implemented hashes (which used to be better known as "associative arrays", hence the Assoc name). Before the release, I decided I should rename the class to Hash to avoid confusion in terminology. I fixed all occurences of "Assoc" of course -- but I failed to notice that there was a Hash() function in the class. It was a private class method used for the hash function, but of course the C++ compiler thought it was a constructor, since I inadvertantly created that collision. I've fixed it now, renaming the Hash() method to HashFunction() to remove the conflict. Unfortunately, this makes the initial release a "brown paper bag" release -- not an auspicious start. *sigh*
This underscores the exact reason why I released it as a beta version (1.0.0.beta.1) instead of as a stable release (1.0.0) -- I didn't want any stable release to ever have a dumb mistake like this in it, so I decided that by policy, a stable release would always be identical to a development release, except for the version number.
There have been several serious bugs in the Linux kernel "stable" series which slipped through because untested code was added to the "stable" release. I wanted to avoid that. And I did -- even though the basic codebase is very stable, there were changes in the released version from the tested-but-unreleased version. Most of the changes were in the comments at the start of the files, but some involved actual code changes. Simple ones (like renaming some source files, occurrences of the system name, Assoc->Hash, etc.) but obviously not completely immune to error.
I guess I've proven the value of my stable release policy, but I wish I had been alert enough to remember to build and test the server before posting the release. Oh well. The new release (1.0.0.beta.2) does compile and run correctly. I tested it this time.
I still need to write more documentation, of course...
