Pudding Club Blog
Jude Bull's big birthday celebration
This morning we had a Ready! Steady! Cook! event for Jude Bull's big birthday celebration. Jude, her husband Clint and 29 guests divided into 4 teams who had to make and decorate a tray of biscuits, cook a microwavable chocolate pudding in two minutes and also make the "Apricot and Marmalade Marvel" Lord Randalls Pudding all under the direction of the Pudding Club's Head Chef., Mark Rowlandson and Chairman Peter Henderson
Some of the biscuits were interesting shapes but the Chocolate Puddings were all a triumph and included a variety of additional ingredients like ground ginger, chilli (wow, was that sauce hot) and Baileys.
The real test was the the Lord Randalls Pudding as the teams were allowed to add more fruit if they wanted too and generally tinker with the recipe and method. During the afternoon, Mark cooked each of the 4 puds and tonight they were all paraded at Jude's Birthday dinner so that everyone at the party could taste 4 different versions of this terrific pudding. In truth every one of the 4 puds looked and tasted terrific. The puds were so full of fruit that everyone who ate them will be fit for months!
Real Pudding Lovers
It was harder than ever not to laugh at tonight's Pudding Club meeting.
Debbie the receptionist was a bit concerned that a couple from Wales hadn't turned up for the meeting and didnt want them to miss out on the 7 traditional puds. So, after giving them a bit of time to show up, she called their mobile. They were dismayed that they had mixed up their dates and were expecting to come tomorrow. They had rented a cottage for the weekend and when Debbie phoned them they were in the village pub 300 yards away.Starters had been eaten and during the phone call their steaks arrived at the the table.
What would you do in that situation? Well they proved that they are real Pudding Lovers by leaving their steaks untouched, paying for their meals and running down the street to the pudding club meeting just in time for the Parade of Puddings! What stars they are. Of course we offered them a steak at the end of the puds, but they were not so keen then....
Why isnt there a photograph of this lovely couple? Well they didnt want their friends and family back in the valleys to hear of their adventures- so it is our secret.

LOS ANGELES (AP) – Catholic Cardinal Roger Mahony will help elect a new pope, despite recently being rebuked for not doing more to stop sexual abuse by priests when he led the Los Angeles Archdiocese.
Mahony has been barred from public duties in the archdiocese by the current archbishop because of revelations about his past handling of clergy pedophile cases. But Mahony remains in good standing as archbishop emeritus.
Mahony says he looks forward to traveling to Rome to participate in the conclave that will choose the next pope.
He also participated in the conclave that elected Pope Benedict in 2005. Mahony says Benedict was an "extraordinary successor to St. Peter" and adds that the church will continue to be blessed by his prayers and writings.

Buy 3 Nude Pics of my beautiful Pussy $5.00
I'm Eden: a woman who appreciates the finer things in life: Champagne...and a man with a rock-hard cock who's not afraid to use it on my tight and tender snatch. I love the feeling of man slowly peeling off my thigh-highs and worshipping my long, slender legs with his lips and tongue right before he teases my aching cunny with a finger...or three.
I'm a woman who is built for pleasure...and for speed. My 36DD's will provide a very warm cradle for your cock and if you're a gentleman, you'll do as I ask and cum all over my tits. I love the taste of fresh, hot spunk and I love to lick it off my nipples...it gets them so stiff and hard, and sends electric shocks to my jumping clit! Oh, I'm such a poor hostess: would you like some champagne? I do hope you don't mind lapping it out of my pussy. I love the bubbles fizzing up around my clit and nipples when I pour it over my body and the sensation of the cold champagne and your warm tongue will have me writhing in ecstasy. Be a good fuck toy and drink up every last drop....Oh, yesssssss....perfect!
Some women don't like the title of "slut," but I love it. There's nothing too kinky, too taboo or too nasty for me...and if you call me now, you might catch me playing with my toys...and you know...I'll keep the champagne and hot juices flowing if you will. So call me and get a taste of the high life.

In the video accompanying his review of the Ferrari 599, Se or Neil mentions that in a past life as a rock writer, he once interviewed Anthrax. He then proceeded to call them numbskulls. How can the band that recorded Among the Living and Persistence of Time possibly be a group of numbskulls? True, they did also record Fistful of Metal, an album that featured the lines, "I got thunder in my hands! I'm Metal Thrashing Maaaaaaaaaaaad!" So he could be correct. Regardless, Neil posits that the Fiorano is simply the best front-engined sports car ever made; a calling it a machine that will blow your mind to "spumy flinders." You okay over there, Dan?

OUTLOOK - Virgil and Susie Myers will be moving to Idaho after having spent a lifetime in Outlook.
Mr. Myers spent his entire life in the Outlook area. He was a cattle feeder, while Mrs. Myers taught kindergarten.
She moved to Outlook when she married the love of her life, and together the couple raised three children.
Sons Kevin and Kurt Myers live in Idaho.
In June 2011, Mr. and Mrs. Myers celebrated 50 years of marriage.
Now they embark on a new chapter in life, but they will be missed in the Lower Yakima Valley.
Barb Miller is a lifelong friend of the couple. She said, "They've made a tremendous difference in the lives of others through leadership and involvement in the community."
Mr. Myers, she said, is a pioneer of Outlook who graduated from Washington State University.
He was the Central Washington Junior Livestock Show director, has been an avid bowler and golfer, and supported children in the community alongside his wife.
The pair, said Miller, have served as superintendents and judges at the Yakima Valley Junior Fair (now the Yakima Valley Fair & Rodeo). They were leaders of the Grow 'Em & Show 'Em 4-H club and supported activities at Sunnyside's United Methodist Church.
"Susie has touched the lives of many children," said Miller, noting Mrs. Myers went beyond serving as a kindergarten teacher.
She was raised in Leavenworth, and graduated from Washington State University before marrying Mr. Myers.
When Mrs. Myers moved to Outlook she became an active member of the community and has been on the Yakima County 4-H Leadership Council.
She has volunteered at Sunnyside United Methodist Pre-School and the Outlook Elementary School library. She has been a member of PEO, Delta Kappa Gamma and a quilting group.
Miller said most of Mrs. Myers' focus has been on the youth in the community.
Cathy Mears was Mrs. Myers' principal at Outlook Elementary School.
She said, "Susie was a fine teacher...and of course, being a kindergarten teacher, the kids remember her."
Mears said Myers was always creative, helping students learn via activities like "...cooking stone soup, which was inspired by Stone Soup, the book."
Because Myers is so well remembered by past students, Miller and Mears say the former teacher has been invited to and attended many weddings over the years.
Mears said Myers has also organized an annual Christmas bazaar during which she sold many baked goods and crafts designed by her own hands.
"It was pretty popular," said Mears.
She said the couple has made a lasting impression on many in the community.
Mears said Mr. Myers has always been supportive of youth organizations and the couple was a large part of the 4-H and fair programs.
"Susie is a very talented woman...she believes busy hands are happy hands," said Mears.
She and Miller said Mrs. Myers endeared others to her with a vocal and musical talent, as well. She has been a member of the bell choir, played piano and often provided vocal performances.
"They've been a real support to the community and it's a terrible loss," Mears said of the couple's impending move.
"But, they want to be near family and we can understand that."
Miller said, "They've been great friends to Dale and myself...they weren't just focused on the lives of their own children, but children throughout the community."
She and her husband attend church with the Myers and said the church family will miss the couple.
Mary Schlenker of Sunnyside United Methodist Pre-School said she will also miss Mrs. Myers, who began volunteering at the school after retiring from the Sunnyside School District.
"She helps with baking projects, especially making tarts...at the end of the year, she helps with a bubble activity that allows the kids to be creative and have fun," said Schlenker.
She said Myers also serves on the pre-school board and is responsible for evaluating Schlenker's performance as a teacher.
"She helps the pre-school run smoothly," said Schlenker, noting the children appreciate Myers' attention and are provided an opportunity to understand there are people outside their circle who care about them.
"Susie is also a grandma figure to some of the students who don't have regular exposure to their own grandparents," Schlenker said, noting Mrs. Myers is a caring individual who has shared her love and generosity with many.
All three women agree that the Myers' will be missed, but they are wished much happiness as they move forward in life.

As well as the above, minor fixes have been applied. It's a superb solution for those deal hunters who would like to remain up-to-date with all the latest pricing alterations on the store.

First off, I'd love to show you all our new digs. Here is a view from our 8th floor balcony:
In January, we added a new member to our family when we adopted Milo (named after the ridiculous dog in "Mask").
Ozato. If you go to the link, you'll learn heartbreaking statistics on the gassing of animals here. Long story short, owners have five days to collect their animals. If there is not an owner, the dog is NOW offered to American Servicemembers and Japanese citizens to adopt. If the animal is not adopted or fostered (or if it is turned in by its owner), it is gassed. In 1992 over 13000 animals were gassed. In 2008, almost 5,000. This was prior to a change in management and policy, although there are still many gassed. So, Milo became our new rescue and he is an amazing little beast. Sometimes he listens, sometimes he doesn't. Most of the time he's sweet, then he likes to pretend he's much bigger than he is and pretends to growl. He's supremely spoiled rotten. We are very lucky to be his humans.
In March, we had a visit with the whales. The humpback whale cruises on through the warm waters of Okinawa around February to May, while the polar bears freeze their keesters off in the North Pole. The annual migration is an amazing spectacle. Words just cannot describe how amazing it is to see these magnificent mammals in their natural habitat.

Powerball Jackpot At $448 million For Wednesday
New Jerseyans have purchased over $6 million worth of Powerball tickets today in hopes of winning tonight's jackpot that has an annuity value of $448 million.
Wednesday night's Powerball numbers are: 5,25,30,58,59 and Powerball 32
Powerball tickets are selling at a rate of nearly $3200 worth per minute in New Jersey with sales picking up around noon.
On Wednesday alone $5.9 million worth of Powerball tickets were sold before 5 p.m., six times what was sold all day on Sunday according to the New Jersey Lottery. $900,000 worth of tickets were purchased between 4p.m. and 5p.m.
Tonight's jackpot, with a cash value of $244.7 million, is the fourth largest ever offered in the United States. The drawing is Wednesday night at 11 p.m. and can be seen on WABC TV and WPVI TV and on the Powerball website. Text NEWS to 89000 to be the first to know when the numbers are drawn.
If no one wins tonight's jackpot, "We would be in world record territory" for the next drawing, on Saturday, Chuck Strutt, head of the Multi-State Lottery Association, told NBCNews.
There has been no Powerball winner since June 22 when a Delaware County woman won a jackpot with an annuity value of $131 million. Pedro Quezada of Passaic won a $338millilon annuitized jackpot in March.
Your odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 175,223,510 according to the Powerball website. There's a 1 in 31.85 chance that a ticket holder could win something else including the smallest prize of $4. The jackpot is won by matching 5 numbers plus the Powerball.
The multi-state lottery is played in 42 states including New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York and Delaware.

If you manage holiday accommodation, you will already know the importance of having impeccable standards of cleanliness and hygiene across your portfolio of properties. Nowadays, bad reviews about a holiday home, cottage, Air B&B or B&B (especially reflecting on sanitation) can be make-or-break for an establishmnet and shatter it's reputation.
Here at Professional Cleaners UK we understand this and offer holiday let cleaning in Achiemore at fantastic prices.
Those not in the industry often consider holiday let cleaning an easy job; a quick whip-round and change of linen and towels. Yet the proper cleaning of a holiday property is no mean feat, as no corner should be left unsanitised and a full clean must often occur within an extremely short space of time as one set of guests checks out and before another one checks in.
Professional Cleaners UK understand the urgent nature of your holiday let cleaning and that it must be done immaculately every time: every guest will have a fresh first impression of the place, and it must always be second-to-none. If repeat custom and word-of-mouth recommendations can be encouraged, you'll notice the results not just in happy guests and a squeaky-clean holiday let but also in your profit and business.
The first responsibility to a fresh holiday let is for the property owner to ensure that strict and set check-in and check-out times are in place. Our cleaning teams can be flexible and work around fluctuations in these if required by guests but will need to be told before they arrive on-site. For more information and FREE quotes contact us today.

Once the guests are out, the cleaning routine must happen with military precision to get through everything as quickly and, more importantly, efficiently, as possible, whilst maintaining the high standards you'd expect. Our teams can carry out inventory check-lists to ensure that all property is still in the property and in the right place. Then, using non-harmful chemical cleaning products as well as specialist routines and techniques, we can clean the property to your specifications; including laundry services, fabric dry-cleaning, vacuuming, sweeping, waste disposal and disinfecting. If your property is pet-friendly, we can use specialist products to ensure extra hygiene for wet noses and muddy paws. If your property is used by families with children, we can sanitise all play equipment and toys too, for safety.

We can also carry out equipment checks of appliances, electrical items, lights, AC units and Wi-Fi facilities to ensure everything is up and running ready for your next guests. On chilly days, we can leave heating on too for a warm welcome.

Do you remember using an encyclopedia? If you were lucky, your parents purchased a set to be used at home. Otherwise, you made a trip to the library.
|FamilySearch Wiki for Pennsylvania
On the opening page smack dab in the middle you will see a search box. You can search by place or topic, such as Ohio, military records, probate, chancery court, naturalizations, etc. As you have learned, not every state or county is alike in their legal system and jurisdictions. Therefore, after you have read all about probate records in general, go to a state that you are researching in, such as Ohio, Maryland, Pennsylvania.
I did just that for Pennsylvania and there are 1,659 wikis for Pennsylvania! So, I clicked on just Pennsylvania. Along with key information, unique features, maps, etc. is a listing of key topics and other topics. Click on probate and now you will learn even more. Pennsylvania wills have been filed with the "register of wills" in each county, where they are recorded in indexed books. There is more good information. I also see that some are available online at Ancestry.com. I will need to check that. Scrolling on down is a link to the Pennsylvania probate record in the online collection of the FamilySearch Historical Records. Do I need to write a letter to a courthouse or go to Salt Lake City to use microfilm? Maybe not! It might be that I'll find what I need online. If not, I'm prepared to rent microfilm or write letters.
Some of the Wiki articles are more informative than others. For example, there is a Massachusetts Genealogy Guide complete with maps and historical data time line. Even more interesting information is found in the county guides. You can click and click your way through information that will make you a better genealogist and insure that you are going to succeed in your research.
Make a practice of using the FamilySearch Wiki. It's a good thing!

After successfully rebooting Batman under Christopher Nolan, Warner Brothers and DC Comics are trying to do the same to Superman, with Nolan serving as producer, and Zack Snyder of Watchmen and 300 as director. So, Dark Knight, here's your Man of Steel.
Right up front, I miss the John Williams music. It's like seeing Star Wars or Bond without their themes. I'm also concerned about some of the scenes in the trailer. Hopefully they'll make more sense when in context. But it does look like Snyder's iconic style meshes well with Superman's iconic look. He's the first modern superhero, and he had the first successful modern superhero movie. He's a tough character to write well, however.
Nolan started strong with Batman Begins, and created some of the best Batman moments committed to film, but his endings were terrible, he missed key parts of the Batman character, and in Dark Knight Rises, succumbed to a lot of bloat and bad choices. The 300 was Frank Miller's comic shot for shot, and Watchman was quite a achievement, given the scope of Alan Moore's original work, but the fight scenes verged on silly and the wisely-altered ending never quite gelled. Hopefully the pairing will bring out the best of both of their approaches.
No spoilers here, but if you want to discuss the trailer and the upcoming movies, jump into our movies forum.
Man of Steel comes out next year, but there's a ton Superman for you to enjoy on your iPhone or iPad in the meantime, including the original movies, Bryan Singer's beautiful but misguided previous attempt at a reboot, and some amazing stuff from the folks at Warner Animation. (Here's why: deadly John Byrne Luthor > comedic Donner Luthor.)
I particularly recommend the original Donner movie (Superman: The Movie), All Star Superman (based on the Grant Morrison comic), and Superman (the animated series), and, of course, Superman: The Fleischer Cartoons.

Online inventory management software is a must-have tool for any business tasked with overseeing and tracking large amounts of physical inventory. This software provides transparency into quantities, locations and other aspects that are key for successful inventory management.
With so many options available, choosing the right online inventory management software for your business can be an overwhelming endeavor. Fear not, because we are here to help. Read on to learn more about online inventory management systems. Here's what we'll cover:
What Is Online Inventory Management Software?
Common Functionality of Online Inventory Management Software
Benefits of Online Inventory Management Software
Key Considerations for Inventory Management Software
Online inventory management systems offer the same benefits and functionalities as on-premise inventory management software—but with the added convenience of cloud-based deployment. Key capabilities of this software include:
Online inventory management software is accessed through the internet, rather than through a program installed on your physical computers and servers. This greatly reduces your company's hardware requirements. What's more, the subscription-based pricing plans these systems typically offer tend to be less expensive than the traditional, desktop-based systems. This makes online inventory management software a cost-effective option for small businesses.
Most online inventory management systems offer a robust combination of tools and capabilities. This table lists some common functionalities of this software, all of which can have a positive impact on your business.
|Real-time inventory management
|Allows you to see your stock levels, incoming and outgoing orders, shipping information and a whole host of other measures in real time. This enables you to improve tracking and make informed decisions using up-to-date knowledge of your inventory.
|Item variations
|This categorization capability is an essential function of most online inventory management systems. It allows you to store key product variations and differentiations in order to quickly and conveniently organize your inventory based on specific details, such as product color.
|To more easily identify and input products in the system, many solutions use barcode or radio frequency identification (RFID) tags. Scanning these tags with barcode scanners or other devices provides information on the product, as well as actions that can be taken to manage it (e.g., mark it as received, sold or shipped).
|Reporting and analytics
|Provides access to user-friendly, data-driven dashboards articulating inventory levels, sales reports and other information you need. With this information in hand, you can make smarter decisions and optimize key components of your business, including pricing, shipping, purchasing and reordering.
|Multichannel inventory synchronization
|You may sell your products through multiple channels, including online and retail stores. The solution should be capable of providing the exact inventory status by checking all the channels where sales are occurring. Also, inventory should be synchronized with the order management module that notifies customers immediately if any product is out of stock.
|Automatic updates
|Most tools offer real-time inventory status updates, as inventory management is the most critical task in running a business. It allows managers to check that inventory is stocked and fulfilled from warehouses for every order. Also, in case of low inventory or out-of-stock items, an automatic update is sent to warehouse managers that informs them to take action and order new inventory.
The insights gathered from inventory management software should aid the growth of your business. Choosing software that integrates with other systems used in your organization, such as customer relationship management (CRM) and accounting software, can provide you with even more detailed, accurate insights. This can help you set realistic goals and analyze business metrics.
Some of the key benefits of online inventory management software include:
Improved inventory ordering and control. Rather than toiling over an enormous spreadsheet to monitor inventory, this software enables you to easily manage it all. The system provides detailed, real-time stock levels as well as projections of future inventory requirements.
Reduced inventory costs. With accurate inventory monitoring and ordering capabilities, you can prioritize stocking items that generate the most revenue and delay restocking underperforming items.
Accurate forecasting. Reporting and analytics capabilities enable you to spot monthly, weekly and yearly trends. These trends can inform you of future inventory projections, so you can make sure you're properly stocked on important items.
Mobile access. Using cloud-based inventory management, you can access your backend software from any compatible device with an internet connection. That means you can place and/or confirm orders, monitor inventory levels and complete a whole host of other tasks from anywhere, as long as you are connected to the internet.
As a new buyer, you should consider these key factors before making a purchase decision. Depending on the size of your business, your budget and other factors, it is not necessary to choose a product that offers every possible feature. Rather, it is wise to select a solution based on your immediate requirements and upgrade as the business grows.
Here's what you should look for:
Integration with existing applications. The solution should offer integration with third-party CRM and accounting software to avoid duplicating tasks for end users. It should be able to automatically sync all customer, finance and order-related data with other systems and generate a consolidated report.
User-friendly interface. The software should have an easy-to-navigate interface that enables quick adoption within the organization. Training your staff on new technology can be expensive for SMBs. Therefore, the solution should be intuitive, require minimal training and ultimately, encourage usability among the staff.
Reliability and security. Software should enable administrators to manage access and permissions for each user and record their behavior in real time. It should also be able to protect the inventory database from unauthorized access, as this information is critical for the business.
Warehouse integration. Your business might have multiple warehouses in different states to store inventory and better serve customers across the country. It's essential that each location is integrated so users can quickly view inventory levels. The solution should also allow users to select one warehouse as their primary location and fulfill their orders from a single screen.
Our service is simple and 100% free to customers like you because software vendors pay us when we connect them with quality leads. You save time and get great advice. Vendors get great referrals. It's a win for everyone!


text: From air power to infantry to chemicals, the weapons used in the Vietnam War were more devastating than those of any previous conflict. United States and South Vietnamese forces relied heavily on their superior air power, including B-52 bombers and other aircraft that dropped thousands of pounds of explosives over North Vietnam and Communist targets in South Vietnam. While U.S. troops and their allies used mainly American-manufactured weapons, Communist forces used weapons manufactured in the Soviet Union and China. In addition to artillery and infantry weapons, both sides utilized a variety of tools to further their war aims, including highly toxic chemical defoliants or herbicides (on the U.S. side) and inventive booby traps using sharpened bamboo sticks or crossbows triggered by tripwires (on the North Vietnamese-Viet Cong side).

When it comes to Her Majesty's corgis, all other royal family pets are commoners. That was the case for the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's cocker spaniel Lupo this Christmas. Her Majesty, with concern that cocker spaniels are a friendly and playful breed, and corgis who are slightly more territorial and rather unpredictable, decided it would be best for all concerned that Lupo spend the holidays in Berkshire with the Middletons.
Dr. Roger Mugford, noted animal psychologist, farmer and founder of the The Animal Behaviour Centre who has in the past advised Her Majesty on matters involving the corgis, noted in an interview with The Telegraph that, "The commotion of Christmas – the large number of people, the unfamiliar faces and all the distractions – can make them unpredictable. Another dog coming into their territory, with all of that going on, isn't necessarily going to be welcomed by them."
The corgis are notorious for their behaviour and antics. In Brian Hoey's newest book: Pets by Royal Appointment: The Royal Family and their Animals, Hoey details the most recent altercation between the corgis and a Royal family member's dog.
Princess Beatrice received her Norfolk terrier Max for Christmas when she was thirteen. A devoted owner, she had her 2005 Christmas card feature the dog. So the Royal was distraught when she learned her Grandmother's corgis attacked Max during a walk whilst at Balmoral.
"The terrier nearly lost an ear and his body was covered with horrific bites. He had to be seen by a vet immediately. Beatrice was not at Balmoral at the time – her father had taken Max up to Scotland for her – but she arrived shortly afterwards whereupon the Queen told her how upset she was that the incident had occurred. Roger Mumford was then called in to calm Her Majesty's animals – not poor old Max."
Prior to Beatrice's dog being attacked, Mugford was also dispatched when Princess Anne's bullterrier Dotty mauled the Queen's dog Pharos, attacking the corgi so viciously that he had to be put down the next day. Dotty, no stranger to trouble, was spared as "Her Majesty thought it impossible to blame Dotty as it was in the dog's make-up to attack other animals, so the bull terrier was not put down."
Perhaps Lupo will be allowed to join in the holiday merriment someday. Hoey writes; "As Duke of Cambridge, William recently said, perhaps only half-jokingly, that one of the changes he will make when he eventually succeeds to the throne is to get rid of the corgis. 'They bark all the time,' he said, but not within hearing distance of his grandmother. Of course, he would never do or say anything to upset her during her lifetime, but there may have been more than a little truth in what he said."

Rex Energy (REXX) held a conference call on August 3, 2011, and discussed additional operational details on the company's expanding Utica Shale position.
Rex Energy is moving a rig to drill the horizontal leg of a Utica Shale test well in Butler County, Pennsylvania. This rig just finished a six well pad drilling operation into the Marcellus Shale and Burkett Shale in Pennsylvania.
The name of the Utica Shale well is Cheeseman and Rex Energy expects results from this well in the fourth quarter of 2011. The Cheeseman well is eleven miles south of the Zion well drilled and completed by Range Resources (RRC)
Rex Energy said that the Warrior Prospect has approximately 80 net drilling locations based on 4,000 foot laterals, with 1,000 foot spacing between the laterals. Union Drilling (UDRL) will construct a new rig to be used by Rex Energy to develop the play.
Rex Energy comments on Utica Shale Geology
- Utica Shale is Ordovician age and is the source rock for the overlying Silurian sandstones and Cambrian carbonates and sandstones in Ohio.
- Although the total organic carbon content from 2.4% to 3.7% is low compared to other shale plays, the thickness of the shale makes up for this. The Utica Shale in eastern Ohio is 150 feet thick and the Point Pleasant Formation is 140 feet thick.
- The Utica Shale is mature enough in the area that Rex Energy is involved with to produce wet gas.

Profiling Pydev
One of the things we end up doing when testing some stuff is embeeding some file -- say, an image -- into a .py file. Among those, we could get a 3-4 mb sized file, and pydev would take a long time to parse it, so, my first target was to speed that up.
Making 'general' changes thinking it will get better is usually a mistake, as you need a way to measure those impacts. I started then with a file with a couple of statements and a single 'huge' multiline string and made my target optimizing parsing that file faster.
After playing around a little in the parser I discovered that the actuall speed loss was not at the grammar itself, but at the Reader that should give the chars to the tokenizer. After looking at its code, you could see it allocateded lots of memory in the process, so, I decided to create another reader from scratch and with the help of some unit-tests, and the results were pretty impressive (for big files):
Parsing a huge .py file (3mb) it was taking about 4-5 minutes... now it only takes 2-3 seconds (yeah, the previous approach had an 'exponential' behaviour depending exclusively only on the size of some file, not to mention that it would make the garbage collector work a lot more).
This will be available for 1.0.7 -- But before I do release it, I'm still looking for other 'hotspots' to optimize ;-)

Given all the work you put into the indentation engine, is it likely we'll see pretty print support of existing code any time soon? While not the most gradiose of features, being able to uniformly format a source file that several people have touched would be a very welcome addition.
- Fabio Zadrozny said...
Hi Kevin,
Actually, internally those features are not very alike.
The indentation engine just 'positions' things and works on the source-code to know things, whereas a pretty-printer would probably work on the AST (Abstract Syntax Tree).
Now, having said that, there's already quite some work I did on a pretty-printer that works on the AST level (there is already a code-format utility that works on the source-code level, but it is kind of limited: Ctrl+Shift+F).
So, yes, it should not take long before it is available, but it will be added only after the 1.1 release (I'm currently working on profiling and bug-fixing for that release).
-- Fabio
- Kevin Menard said...
Sounds good. The recent PyDev releases have been pretty solid (especially with the recent debugger fixes), so I don't have much to complain about.
- joram said...
Hi Fabio,
going to the definition of a function (F3) also takes a lot of time in my projects.
Maybe some profiling in that area could increase the speed there.
- Fabio Zadrozny said...
Hi Joram,
Actually, if you're using pydev and not pydev extensions, it uses BRM (Bicycle repair man), and BRM does have a number of deficiencies (and I just integrate it -- don't really support it).
I do support the go to definition feature of pydev extensions (http://pydev.sf.net) -- which should be pretty fast and much less error prone.

Scholarship Fund for Fallen Little Giant• July 18, 2011 Share:
Matthew Debono entered Wabash in the fall of 1984 and immediately made an impact — on his brothers in Kappa Sigma and his teammates on the cross country team.
Shortly before Thanksgiving that year, Debono was diagnosed with severe aplastic anemia, which forced him to withdraw from the College. He passed away 18 months later.
At his request, Matt's family started a scholarship fund in his memory. Now, 25 years after it was established, new efforts are being made to grow the scholarship fund to $60,000 or more.
The family is now partnering with Aplastic Anemia and MDS International Foundation.
"We are now in the process of memorializing Matthew after 25 years and are hosting a fundraiser to endow the scholarship for years to come," said Matt's sister, Claudine Debono Holloway. "Though he was only there for a few months, he was very proud of his time at Wabash — running on the cross country team and being a Kappa Sigma brother. "
More information about Matt, the scholarship fund, and Aplastic Anemia can be found on the FirstGiving website.

- Writing short Q&As for the print magazine, including our Art Space and In Person departments

Since In These Times is a nonprofit magazine, all volunteers will very occasionally be asked to help with publishing and fundraising tasks.
Applicants should have a strong interest in politics and independent media. Previous editorial and/or web experience is a plus but is not required.
When applying, please indicate when you are able to start and when you would want your internship to end. (Note that start and end dates of the internship are flexible.)
Applicants should e-mail a cover letter and résumé to Joel Bleifuss (email@example.com) , with the subject line EDITORIAL INTERNSHIP APPLICATION. Writing samples are encouraged, and these may be sent as attachments if they are in a .doc format.
If you are interested in making the issues that rural America is grappling with part of the nation's discourse, consider applying for the Rural America In These Times (RAITT) internship. The RAITT intern's primary responsibility is to write articles for Rural America. The volunteer RAITT intern also juggles a mix of traditional editorial (proofreading, fact-checking, editing) and web (content production/promotion, blogging, tagging, traffic tracking) duties.
This position is perfect for someone who has a passion for the agricultural economy, the rights of indigenous people, the environmental impact of extractive industries, conservation of our natural world, the community rights movement and preservation of the rural way of life. RAITT interns are required to work from In These Times' Chicago office at least two days each week.
When applying, please indicate when you are able to start and when you would want your internship to end. (Note that start and end dates of the internship are flexible.)
Applicants should e-mail a cover letter and résumé to Joel Bleifuss (email@example.com), with the subject line RAITT INTERNSHIP APPLICATION. Writing samples are encouraged, and these may be sent as attachments if they are in a .docx format.

Who is Troy Dyer?
If you've been reading this blog long enough, you know how a few of us here feel about Reality Bites – ok maybe just Duana and me. This is the origin of our love-hate for Ethan Hawke. And our enduring love for loafers with anything. If you clicked on the title of this post because you know the name, I don't need to explain much more to you.
Ben Stiller is turning Reality Bites into a scripted television series. It will take place in the 90s. Our characters – Lelaina, Troy, Vickie, and Sammy will be back. And …then what? Duana's reaction last night when she heard about this was a stomach ache.
Reality Bites, back then, was what it was because they weren't telling "real" stories about people in their 20s then. Now? It's ONLY "real" stories about people in their 20s. Sort of. The Simple Life, The Hills, Jersey Shore – these are the bastard grandchildren of Reality Bites watched by the children of the baby boomer generation. And do these people still care?
Remember when Vickie got tested for HIV? That was a thing for us back then. That was a terrifying, horrifying thing. AIDS now? That's what HIV Awareness advocates are addressing now – that it stopped being a thing (for a number of issues including advancement in treatment) even though it's still a thing. The point is, the issues and preoccupations have changed. And perceptions too. Could we have a female character on a TV show who brings home a different boy every night and catalogues them in a notebook tucked into her nightstand? Could we love her without a f-cking meltdown from the MiniVan Majority? Lelaina probably BECAME the MiniVan Majority!
But, that said, I can understand the obvious attraction to the idea. Lelaina walked around memorexing every innocuous, beautiful minute of their lives. Which…is pretty much what we do now, non? What? What is your glitch?
Anyway… LOOK AT HER FACE. HER FACE!!!

With memory prices dropping to unprecedented lows, and as 2GB kits become the standard not only for high end gaming systems but everyday usage, it is hard to decide between the variety of quality kits available on the market. Today, instead of comparing products from different companies, or focusing on a single kit, I have decided to bring you a variety of 2GB kits from one memory manufacturer, Corsair Memory.
Based in Fremont, Ca. Corsair has established itself as arguably the top dog in the system memory market. With memory kits that fit every possible need from budget to high end enthusiast systems, Corsair is a name that is synomomous with both quality and performance. If you are in the market for a 2GB kit keep reading as we'll cover memory kits that run at PC32000 (DDR400), PC3500 (DDR438), and PC4000(DDR500).
Starting with the TWINX2048-3200C2 and its tight timings of 2-3-3-6 at DDR 400, then on to the TWINX2048-3500LLPRO and its 2-3-2-6 timings at DDR438, and finally onto Corsair's newest kit, the TWINX2048-4000PT that promises DDR500 at 3-4-4-8. We'll look at each kit individually, making sure to explain the benefits and drawbacks of each as well as explain what type of user and system they might fit best. Then we'll benchmark each kit at its rated speed and timings, and finally overclock them to squeeze every last bit of performance from them.

Chocolate and beer are good. It says so in Genesis, says Matthew Leonard, author, speaker and executive director of the St. Paul Center for Biblical Theology, in a recent video. "And God saw everything that he had made, and behold, it was very good" (Gn 1:31). There you have it. But maybe there's more to it?
In this video from the St. Paul Center, Leonard digs into the meaning of penance, offers encouragement and provides some humor.
And don't miss Leonard's newest book, coming soon from Our Sunday Visitor (available for pre-order)! "Prayer Works! Getting a Grip on Catholic Spirituality" makes prayer methods manageable. It is fun and fast-paced, and it will put you on your knees — after you're finished slapping them.

You have a lot on your mind these days, from harvest data to planning for 2014. As farming gets more complex savvy producers are looking for partners who can team up to put all the pieces together. I got a chance to sit down with the leader of an Ohio cooperative that's working to be that partner for customers and they're solidifying their relationship in new ways.
The deployment of technology in new ways is important to Farm Industry News and we want to know how businesses are taking all these tools and bringing them together. For Sunrise Cooperative, which serves a 25 county area in North Central Ohio, the answer is to create a web-based support system to augment their full-service business in new ways.
I sat down with George Secor, who heads up the cooperative based in Fremont, Ohio. The business has grown both organically and through acquisition to become a $700 million business with 26 million bushels of grain storage capacity. It's a full service business that offers customers everything from fuel sales to grain marketing support to crop inputs.
A few years ago Secor says he saw a need to connect with customers who were doing a majority of their business with the cooperative to find new ways to support those farm businesses. "Farmers have to sort through so much information these days and they can become inundated," Secor says.
The result is the Sunrise Knowledge Network, a proprietary website offered only to a limited number of customers who do a specific amount of business with the cooperative. Those customers are given access to a site that in just a year has grown into a robust resource of local information including videos to help with everything from planter setup to how to conduct a proper oil scan.
Users also have access to marketing information and detailed local weather - including wind speed and precipitation for proper application timing - as part of the site.
Secor teamed up with an agency - FLM - to create the site. "I started with Dr. David Ash who had worked with Adayana," Secor says. "He had moved on to FLM and I didn't care about where we worked as long as it was someone who could create what we needed."
The aim of the Sunrise Knowledge Network is to put at customer fingertips a useful tool they can access anytime to get answers. The cooperative's agronomists and product experts are the source for the videos, which are professionally produced, and they do dig into key local issues.
That's created a library of videos, and in the last few months the cooperative has added weekly "update" videos like a standing show to help farmers understand what's happening in the region. Their grain analysts even produce and end-of-day market recap video too.
That video work involves the local field agronomists telling their stories in the library of videos. "The first videos were difficult," says Bill Bever, agronomy sales manager, Sunrise. "We aren't used to doing that kind of thing, but now we have a system and it's working well."
While FLM the agency handles the editing, the "talent work" comes from people working in the field serving Sunrise customers.
What makes this system powerful for customers is its optimization for tablet computers. "I carry my iPad everywhere," says Mike Sunderman, a farmer-customer. "I can access those videos when I need to."
He points to a specific example. "We were looking at buying a used semi with 400,000 miles on it. I was interested in doing an oil scan to make sure that the semi was a good buy," he says.
Sunderman turned to his tablet computer and looked up oil scan on the Sunrise Knowledge Network, while he was at the location where the truck was - not in his office. Right there he got a quick primer on how to conduct the oil scan sample so he could check whether the machine was running to spec. Turned out it was and he bought the semi truck.
This is a proprietary network accessible only to Sunrise customers, Farm Industry News got a peek at what's happening behind the login wall, and what we found shows what's possible. But Sunrise's Secor knows what he's gotten into as well: "You have to be committed to do this and keep updating the information," he says. "That takes a lot of resources, but we think it's a value for our customers."
The cooperative has made a demonstration video showing the site, you can get a sense of what they're doing by checking out this link.

text: Amerigo Vespucci was an Italian-born merchant and explorer who took part in early voyages to the New World on behalf of Spain around the late 15th century. By that time, the Vikings had established settlements in present-day North America as early as 1,000 A.D. and Christopher Columbus had already "discovered" several Caribbean and Central American islands, yet it's Vespucci's name that prevailed. Early accounts of Vespucci's voyages, now believed to have been forgeries, had quickly spread throughout Europe. In 1507, using these letters as his guide, a German cartographer created a new map, naming the territory now known as South America in Vespucci's honor. For the first time, the word "America" was in print.
