Long 2 32bit Floating Point
I'm useing this bit of code to get values stored as 32bit floating point numbers in a file:
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim vals(3) As Long
Dim sngOut As Single
Dim lngIn As Long
vals(0) = Val("&H" & Text1.Text)
vals(1) = (Val("&H" & Text2.Text) * 256)
vals(2) = (Val("&H" & Text3.Text) * 65536)
vals(3) = (Val("&H" & Text4.Text) * 16777216)
Label1.Caption = vals(0) + vals(1) + vals(2) + vals(3)
lngIn = Label1.Caption
sngOut = 0
CopyMemory sngOut, lngIn, 4
Label2.Caption = sngOut
End Sub
It works fine for some values e.g the hex values 00,00,00,3F should retern 0.5 and they do, but some overflow the Long can anyone think of a way round this?

Beyond Floating Point
I have a 'program' written in Excel that uses cell formulas to come up with an answer. In itself, it isn't that exciting, the thing is that there are about 16000 rows and 50 some odd columns. Needless to say it takes a while to calculate. I have converted this to Visual Basic, however I get different answers, generally a couple of percent off. I think this may be because Excel stores 30 digits wheras VB only has 15. Is there any way I can store 30 digits in VB. If not, what language would you suggest I use that could handle this. Thanx.
Floating Point Numbers
I have a binary file containing vertex data. I need to read this information from the file as a 32 bit float for each x, y, and z position. No matter what I declare the variables I'm storing this information into, the program constantly returns the values as a Double.
Is there a way to do this in VB?
All help is greatly appreciated,

Floating Point Variable To Hex Value
I am trying to show the hex values of a floating point number but having a problem.
My code:
Dim x As Single
x = CSng(Text1)
Label1 = Hex$(x)
Label2 = CSng("&h" & Label1)
If I enter 1.1 then label1 shows 1 and label2 shows 1
if I enter -1.1 then label1 shows FFFFFFFF and label2 shows 1
I searched the site and ran into the copymemory api and tried it but it crashed the program. I guess it couldn't move it to a label.
Is there a way to get the full hex value of a floating point variable?

16-bit Floating Point Variables
Hi, does anyone know of a way to use 16-bit floating point variables/arrays in Visual Basic 6.0? I'm processing great amounts of data, so 32-bit floats are not an option (to memory intensive).
Perhaps there's a way to use integer variables/arrays to store it, but process them differently...
Floating Point Issues
I'm trying to work with a file that includes floating point information in 32 bit form. I need to read that information in and display it as a decimal number, allow the user to change that decimal number to another decimal number and then put it back into the file in 32bit form.
Getting it in and out of the file isn't a problem - I have it in a byte array , and once I've got it back into a byte array I don't have the slightest problem putting it back into the file.
So lets say that I have a 32 bit floating point number in a byte array as follows:
Now I happen to know that converted to decimal that is 19.8; but I've no idea how to program a routine to make the change.
And equally, if my user enters "3" into a text box I have no idea how to turn that into the byte array 40 40 00 00.
Any help much appreciated,

Floating Point Numbers
Admittedly this is a more general than just a vb-specific question: could someone give me a good address for a tutorial on floating point numbers, i.e. how single and double precision values are coded? I don't ask you guys to post an explanation as I guess it might take a good deal of writing.
Thanks in advance.

Invalid Floating Point Operation
I am experiencing a hard to catch error in my VB6 application. After running for several hours, it stops working correctly (but does not crash), also a messagebox pops up, titled VB6, with in it the text: "Invalid floating point operation".
I have no clue what might be causing this error, and it does not seem to be reproducable. I just happens, after some hours of running. No other application is active, the PC, running Win 98, is as clean as it can be.
Maybe anyone recognizes this kind of problem and have a solution?
Floating Point Over A Serial Port
I would like to send single precision floating point numbers over the RS232 buss. There should be a way to do this directly by sending 4 bytesper number. Does anyone have any examples of this. I've seen the LSetinstruction used to move data between different data types on a byte bybyte basis if the types are the same size. This implies that a floatingpoint single precision number could be converted into 4 characters andthese characters then could be sent over the serial port. There areexamples athttp://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/ Q235/8/56.ASP?LN=EN-U&SD=gn&FR=0&qry=floati ng%20point&rnk=12&src=DHCS_MSPSS_gn_SRCHSPR= VBB but I can't seem to get it to work in my applications.
Precision Of The Floating-point Types?
I need to find out the precision of the floating-point data types viz. Single, Double, and Decimal i.e. the maximum number of decimal digits ( i.e. base 10 digits ) that may be specified in thier literals. As this is not documented I thought I'd keep on enterring ever larger numbers in the Immediate Window until I got an overflow error and then count the number of digits. However to my frustration, as soon as I exceed 15 9' i.e. 9999999999999999, it gets converted to 1E+16.
How can I find out the precision and scale of these three data types?

Changing A Floating Point Number To An Integer
I have an long equation that returns a value as a long floating point number my question is there a way to convert this to an integer value so that it can be compared to an integer number that is input by the user.
This is the equation.
Text7.Text = 90 - (Atn((32.2 * 180) / ((Text1.Text / 5280) * 3600) ^ 2) * (180 / 3.14159265359))
it usually returns a number like 1.45838568387579 I know converting it into an integer will lose accuracy but that doesnt matter.
Convert Bytes To IEEE-754 Floating Point
I have 4 ordered bytes values (0-255) which I receive from a device's output. These 4 bytes represent a 32bit floating point value in IEEE-754 format. I need a VB6 function which converts the 4 bytes into this value. Thanks in advance.
Simple Way To Generate A Floating Point Error
Here is something that might leave you with bald patches on your head at the end of the day. A simple decimal, less its integer portion, results in a floating point error in the 11th decimal place.

I mean seriously, I can do this in my head. My pocket calculator can do it too. Why can't Visual Basic 6.0 do it right?
Datatypes: Bitoperations With Floating Point Numbers
from my point of view, I'm having a really tiny problem, but I am not able to solve it by myself. Is it really that hard?
My final goal is to be able to split 32bit floating point variables (as Sinlgle) binary into 4 seperate bytes (which is necessary to work with a given transmission protocol). Therefor I am trying to read and write single bits in a floating point variable (e.g. Single).
I already succeeded with 32bit variables of the type Long. So my problem would already be solved, if you can help me to write the 32 bits of the 32bit Single variable bitwise into the 32 bits of a 32bit Long variable.
dim s as Single
'dim s as Long
Dim bit(0 To 30) As Boolean
s = 12.34
's = 12
For j = 0 To 30
bit(j) = CBool(s And 2 ^ j)
Next j
This code works fine for the commented line, when the variable s is of type Long. When s is of type Single, VB automaticly casts the 12.34 to an Integervalue of 12.
So how can I split (and recombine) the 32bit Singlevalue into Bytes (8bit)?
Thanks in advance for your effort, Parity
How To Distinguish If The Numerical Value Is Integer Or Floating Point?
Hi, I'm a newbie of VB, I'm working on my VB assignment at this moment and encounter a problem.

Messenger:Messenger.exe - Application Error
The exception Floating-point inexact result.
(0xc000008f) occurred in the application at location 0x77e87e08.

Limiting Displayed Floating Point Numbers
I want all my displayed data to be limited to 4 decimal places. I was using the format function. However I have come across a problem
I have a small number e.g. 6.07222318649292E-07 If I limit this with the format function, I get 0., which is clearly wrong.
What I would like is 6.0722E-07.
Here is how I am using the format function
VB Code:
my_text = format(my_number,"0.##")
Any ideas?

Help - Floating Point Inexact Result - Not Coolbar.
I have a very simple form (simple now that I've stripped everything else out of it) that consists of a timer and a winsock control. The winsock listens for incoming connections and the timer fires to see how long ago the last connection was. There are no other controls. I had a tray icon that popped up a menu to end the program, but now (for debugging) you click the form to end it.
When the program ends, I get :
The exception Floating-point inexact result.
(0xc000008f) occurred in the application at location 0x7c59ba9d.
I have disabled the timer and removed all code from the Load event of the form so that the winsock is not active. Essentially there's nothing going on, but I always get this error.
In the development environment, issuing an End command either in code or from the immediate window hangs VB and I have to kill it form task manager. I have no float, single, or double data types in the program and no math.
I have used the winsock control for years and have never seen this. Any ideas?

Floating Point Problem In SQL UPDATE String
I'm using the following string to update some records in a MSAccess table.
Code:"UPDATE DatiAnnuali SET saldatt = " & dati(dovesto, 2) & " WHERE disegno like '" & currentdisegno & "' AND anno = " & I
It works just fine until one of the variables contains a value with decimals. What follows is how the Local Variables window resolves the string when it stops for the syntax error.
"UPDATE DatiAnnuali SET saldatt = 512,5 WHERE disegno like '830847' AND anno = 2005"
By trial and error I realised it does not like the comma in "512,5". That number is coming from dati(x,y) which is a Single (Precision) array, and its value populates a Single Precision field in the db table.
How do I overcome this???
Thank you!

Reading Floating Point Data From A Binary File
Hi Gurus, I need some help.
I am reading some floaing point data from a Binary file using GET Statement.
VB has "Single" data type which is defined as a IEEE 32-bit (4-byte) floating-point number. So, when I use "Get" from a byte position using a "Single" data type variable, I get 4 bytes, and there is no drama.
Unfortunately, I have to write the program in a language (MapBasic) which does not support "Single" data type. It supports "Float" which is 8-byte. Hence when I use the "Get" statement with a Float variable, instead of getting 4 bytes, it gets 8 bytes and gives me a number which is not the number I am looking for.
Is there any way I can solve this problem.
Thanks guys for your attention.

Yeast Intermediary Metabolism By Dan G. Fraenkel, Harvard Medical School
© 2011 434 pp., illus. (138 b/w), appendix, index Hardcover $128 ISBN 978-0-879697-97-6
The intermediary metabolism of small molecules is the meat and potatoes of cell function. The pathways and modes of obtaining energy, degradation and utilization of exogenous organic nutrients, and formation of the building blocks of the main macromolecules were a major focus of research in biology from the turn of the 20th century into the 1970s. Other matters have come to prominence, but the field is active, with interesting problems that are central to biology and medicine. Molecular biology developed through the use of one bacterium, Eschericha coli, with the saying Whats true for E. coli is true for elephants. In recent years, an analogous workhorse has been the eukaryotic microbe bakers yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, used in many studies of cell biology common to multicellular organisms. This book explains metabolism as based on Saccharomyces. The topics include central metabolic pathways; catabolism; fermentation; respiration; biosynthesis of small molecules including cofactors; the metabolism of lipids, polysaccharides, and storage molecules; inorganic ions; transport and compartments; the global analysis of metabolism; and issues of metabolic toxicity. It can be used in courses and as a reference book for research investigators.

© 2006 306 pp., index, CD Printed hardcover $99 $24.75 ISBN 978-087969643-6
Yeast has been a preeminent experimental organism of genetic research for more than 50 years. Progress in the field has provided the conceptual framework that has driven experiments in many areas of biology. Landmark Papers in Yeast Biology consists of essays by prominent scientists on the context and significance of 71 carefully selected research papers, which are reprinted on the accompanying CD. The papers include early, hardtofind classics as well as more recent advances in areas such as signal transduction, membrane trafficking, protein turnover, and genomics. This collection has unique value for all scholars of yeast and could provide the foundation for a literaturebased course on molecular cell biology. As Jasper Rine notes in his eloquent introduction, the editors and contributors share the belief that deep study of the agreedon classics is the best training for learning how to recognize those contemporary papers worthy of our personal time....

LUMBERTON — The Robeson County chapter of the United Way laid out the plans for its 2013 fundraising goal of $715,000 during a luncheon Wednesday at the Pinecrest Country Club.
"It won't be easy to achieve," said Ken Windley, president of the organization, "but it's something we can do."
According to Sandra Oliver, executive director of the United Way of Robeson County, the goal remains the same as it was for the past campaign, when about $700,000 was raised.
The luncheon was part of the kickoff to the 29th annual Pacesetters Campaign. Pacesetters agree to raise money in advance of the official campaign kickoff. The event attracted more than 50 representatives from 26 Pacesetters, as well as local agencies supported by the United Way.
Over a meal of pork, potatoes and salad, Oliver said she recently worked with Mike Miller, Campbell's Soup senior director of Operations, to discuss that plant's upcoming campaign. According to Oliver, the company hopes to raise $80,000 with an 80 percent participation rate.
Pacesetters seek to get each employee to pledge a "fair share" — the equivalent of one hour's pay each month. Pictured on the front of the United Way of Robinson County's brochure is the Lumberton Fire Department, where every employee is a fair-share giver. During the most recent campaign, Pacesetters contributed $420,000, with the biggest contributor, BB&T, raising a total of $108,000.
The money will go toward programs in the 17 organizations the United Way of Robeson County supports.
Windley said Pacesetters need to have their campaigns completed by Oct. 18.
Representatives from Lumberton Auto; Fair Bluff Ford; Lumberton Nissan; Lumberton Honda; and Peterson Toyota were on hand at the luncheon as part of the 2013 Car Giveaway. Those who contribute a "fair share" have their names entered into a contest to win an automobile, with the winner is determined in a series of drawings that begin Oct. 23 and end Dec. 27. The last person standing during a reverse raffle at Biggs Park Mall on Jan. 17 will drive off in the car."There is such need in our county that we really need to be raising more money. We just have to work hard," Oliver said. "We focus on education, health and financial stability. If you teach people those four things, they can pretty much survive on their own."
The Pacesetter companies set to participate in the 2013 fundraiser are: Alamac American Knits; BB&T; Campbell's Soup; City of Lumberton; GlenFlora; Graphic Packaging; International Paper; JCPenny; Kayser Roth Corp.; Lowes Food; Lumbee Guaranty Bank; Lumbee River EMC; New Century Bank South; Piedmont Natural Gas; Public Schools of Robeson County; Robeson Community College; Robeson County Employees; Smithfield Packing; Southeastern Regional Medical Center; Tredegay; United Postal Service; U.S. Cold Storage; Walmart of Pembroke; Walmart of Lumberton; and Wells Fargo Bank.
The nonprofits that are supported are: American Red Cross; Boys and Girls Clubs of Lumberton; Boy Scouts of America; Communities in Schools; Foster Children's Christmas Fund; Girl Scouts; Lumberton Christian Care Center; Mayors' Committee for the Challenged; Monarch, Southeastern Industrial Center; Rape Crisis Center of Robeson County; Robeson County 4-H; Robeson County Church and Community Center; Robeson County Partnership for Children; Robeson Family Counseling Center; Southeastern Family Violence Center; and Southeastern Hospice; Southeastern N.C.

Creation, Evolution, and Christian Laypeople
In this paper, Keller considers three main clusters of questions lay people raise when they learn of anyone teaching that biological evolution and biblical orthodoxy can be compatible. Keller offers some ideas on how to provide responses that take these concerns seriously.
Evolution and the Origin of Biological Information
In this paper, Venema explores several examples in biology where random mutation and natural selection have indeed led to substantial increases in biological information. The question of how new specified information arises in DNA, far from being an "enigma", is one of great interest to biologists.

"They've predicted anywhere from one to two inches of snow, but with the ground being so warm, it more than likely won't accumulate," Lacey said. "The biggest issue we're going to have is black ice. There's really nothing you can do about that, snow chains won't help with black ice. Drivers need to slow down, well under the speed limit, or stay at home if possible until the temperature warms up."
There are high winds in the forecast for today and tonight, according to the National Weather Service. A northwest wind from 10-20 mph is expected with gusts as high as 30 mph.
Along with that burst of wind is the chance of snow. There is a 100 percent chance of precipitation today with occasional rain showers turning into snow sometime in the afternoon.
The Georgia Department of Transportation urged people to drive with caution this afternoon and Friday morning because of the threat of black ice, especially along bridges.
Today's high is expected to be near 44, while the temperature will dip to about 27 tonight.

"Obliterative." It's the best description Natalie Norton of Laie, Hawaii, has heard of what grief is like.
In January 2010, after suffering from whooping cough for less than a month, Norton's infant son, Gavin, passed away. She held Gavin in her arms at the hospital as her husband, Richard, placed his hand over his son's heart, feeling its last beat.
"We imagine (grief) will be difficult, we imagine it will be challenging and unfamiliar and lonely, but we don't imagine that it will be, in the words of Joan Didion, 'obliterative,' " she said.
Almost as horrifying, she said, was when she and Richard had to tell their three other sons that their brother was not coming home.
Walking children through the stages of grief is a challenge many parents have never faced and one they may not have the tools to tackle.
As the children of Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Connecticut, returned to school last week after the deaths of 20 of their classmates and six of the school's staff, the school year may be back on track, but things are hardly back to normal.
For children, finding concrete ways to remember the person they've lost and vocalize their grief can be therapeutic, said psychologist and trauma specialist Therese Rando. "There are literally 43 separate sets of factors that combine to determine how a person mourns."
Memorializing lost loved ones can help them move forward in the process.
Traumatic deaths like those in Newtown can further complicate mourning.
"The essence of trauma is powerlessness," Rando said. Survivors are left many questions: "What can I count on?" "Who am I in the absence of my loved one?"

After winning back to back games to snap a six game skid the Douglas Bulldogs closed out the regular season last week losing three straight games on the road to finish the year 10-15.
The Colts led 12-1 at the end of the first quarter, 26-9 at the half and in the second half outscored Douglas 24-12.
Buena's defense forced 33 turnovers this game.
Eduardo Ysea and Adrian Pena each scored five points to lead the Bulldogs in scoring. Ignacio Valenzuela and Alan Arias each followed with four.
On Thursday, Jan. 31 the Bulldogs were in Rio Rico where they fell 67-50.
Rio Rico led 18-12 at the end of the first quarter but used a 19-5 second quarter run to take a 37-17 lead at the half.
The Bulldogs outscored Rio Rico 21-14 in the fourth quarter but the first half deficit was too much to overcome.
Ysea led Douglas in scoring with nine points. Nick Menduette and Diego Galindo each followed with eight.
"(We) had a slow first half but played much better in the second half," Douglas' basketball coach Oscar Mariscal said. "(The) kids hung in there and never stopped playing hard. Good to see them continue to compete."
On Feb. 1 the Bulldogs were at Cienega for the season finale.
Cienega led 12-9 at the end of the first quarter before blowing the game open in the second in what would be a 19-5 run as the Bobcats led 31-14 at the half.
Cienega outscored Douglas 33-19 the second half.
Menduette and Ysea each scored seven points to lead the Dogs in scoring. Padilla followed with four.
"Last game of the season, kids played well all year," Coach Mariscal said. "They worked very hard and their effort was great. Losing three seniors as we move into a new schedule and alignment for next year."
The Bulldogs ended up 49th out of 65 teams in the Division II power rankings and were 16th out of 21 teams in Section 1.
Douglas' JV's lost all three games last week losing to Buena 76-34; Rio Rico 60-50 and Cienega 60-30. No other details were available from the Douglas coaches.
The Bulldogs freshmen team ended their season last week with three road games. The first game was Jan. 29 against Buena, which the Bulldogs had lost to earlier in the season. The rematch resulted in the same outcome with Buena winning easily 78-36. Jesus Cisneros led the Bulldogs with 16 points and five assists
On Thursday, the Dogs traveled to Rio Rico to face the Hawks. In what would become their best offensive game of the year the Bulldogs won a very hard fought game 80-72. Dwight Swanson led the Bulldogs in scoring with 25 points including going 9-10 from the free throw line. Alejandro Villalobos scored 21 points and had five assists and Jesus Cisneros added 16 points and four rebounds.
The Bulldogs had little time to celebrate as they had to travel to Cienega on Friday to conclude their season. In another rematch, Douglas looked to avenge their 28 point loss to the Bobcats from earlier in the season. Douglas started off very slow trailing in the first quarter by a score of 22-6. Fighting like Bulldogs, they were able to win the second quarter 23-9 to go into halftime down by two points 31-29.
The second half would prove to be just as challenging. Surprising the Bobcats, Douglas was able to take and keep the lead going into the fourth quarter. The Bobcats refused to give up and managed to tie the game at 53 with a chance for the last shot with 10 seconds remaining.
The Bulldogs defense did not collapse and forced a bad shot that would miss as time expired sending the game into overtime. In overtime, the Bobcats size took over and Cienega came away with a 63-56 win.
The game was also the final game for freshmen coach Abe Grijalva.
"I am very proud of these kids for the way the competed all season long," he said. "Douglas has never had the tallest kids but we've always played with pride and this group is no different. Our goal this season was to improve from last year's team and we did that. By finishing 6-6 on the season, we were able to accomplish something that we haven't been able to do at the freshman level in about six years. I told the kids that I will always remember this team as it will be my last."

Last Call at the Oasis is a powerful new documentary that shatters myths behind our most precious resource. This film exposes defects in the current system, shows communities already struggling with its ill-effects and highlights individuals championing revolutionary solutions during the global water crisis.
International World Water Day is held annually on 22 March as a means of focusing attention on the importance of freshwater and advocating for the sustainable management of freshwater resources.
An international day to celebrate freshwater was recommended at the 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED). The United Nations General Assembly responded by designating 22 March 1993 as the first World Water Day.
Celebrate a decade of inspiring activism with SYRCL (South Yuba River Citizens League) this January. Now the largest film festival of its kind, this year's films combine stellar filmmaking, beautiful cinematography and first-rate storytelling. Wild and Scenic Film Festival informs, inspires and ignites solutions, and creates positive probabilities to restore the earth and human communities.
Each year, the Wild & Scenic® Film Festival draws top filmmakers, celebrities, leading activists, social innovators and well-known world adventurers to the historic downtown of Nevada City, California.
The Social Change Film Festival & Institute's Water Symposium It's a rare and special occasion, when creative people with innovative ideas about how to better the world get a chance to converge, share ideas, and inspire each other in a grand beautiful setting. And that is just what took place a few weeks ago at the Social Change Film Festival & Institute's Water Symposium, in the Silicon Valley town of Los Altos Hills, when filmmakers, activists, social entrepreneurs, philanthropists, students and concerned citizens, gathered on the grounds of the historic Stonebrook Court estate.
The University of Minnesota is a reputable research institution, earning about $30 million in grants each year for its College of Food, Agriculture and Natural Resource Sciences. So, given the history of that college's programs and research, it came as quite a surprise to filmmaker Larkin McPhee that the release of her film, Troubled Waters, was postponed at the request of the University's PR department.
350.org is an international campaign that's building a movement to unite the world around solutions to the climate crisis--the solutions that science and justice demand.
Our mission is to inspire the world to rise to the challenge of the climate…

Good GOD man. The only comment that I've ever seen that got more thumbs was someone posted the lyrics to a whole song that they wrote about oranges. The comment was on a post that talked about how nothing rhymes with the word "orange".

Goodwill Does It Again!
See, folks. This is why I DON'T play sports. I can't even be a geek without getting an injury.
Carry on, now. Read about plates.
Everything on my dining room table screams, "the 90s." It starts with the hunter green plates and goes downhill from there. And my plates! They are round!
Do you know it costs about 200 gazillion dollars to buy a new set of plates? Because it isn't just the plates you're replacing. It's the trendy and matching place mats, cups, saucers, bowls, and napkins. And once all that is replaced, the dining room table just plain Looks Bad too.
So I quickly grew an even closer attachment to hunter green. And when praying before lunch one day, I blasted out a request for some plates to match the ones we already had.
Because sometimes I like to give God a little "Pop Quiz."
Just to see if he's listening.
(Because sometimes I wonder.)
I headed out to Goodwill that afternoon, taking my six-year-old along with me. That move was just my way of being even more obnoxious, pointing my Mama Finger heavenward and shouting, "Prove it! Prove that you care! Prove you will provide!"
So we sauntered through the secondhand store, and wouldn't you know, in the mismatched hodge podge dishes aisle was a stack of plates. Our plates. Hunter green plates. And just to throw a cherry on top, sitting nearby were a few matching coffee cups as well.
I knelt down, looked my son in the eye and said, "See? See who God is? See what he has done for us? He is good. Good."
Then we shared a smile--and with thankful hearts--paid a pittance for our plates.
And on the ride home, instead of chanting "Goodwill does it again," we had changed our tune.
"God has done it again."
And it felt good to be green. Hunter green.
**Update: Since that day, we have yet to find another plate to match. But we always look.

A couple of weeks ago the Kiddo and I met our friend Liz at the MoMA for their free-admission Friday night. It was great fun to look at the a couple of the galleries, but before we had scratched the surface of the museum we got sidetracked at this amazing installation. It involved giant, surreal video projections in the round, and there was a huge, circular couch in the middle to lounge on and view the film. Inside the circle, you could lay on the floor on these funny-shaped fuchsia pillows. And that is where the three of us spent the better part of our evening! The Kiddo was giddy, jumping around on the pillows and leaning back to stare at the trippy colors and images dancing around the walls, saying "wwwooooowwww!!!" Here are some photos of the fun (the first is by me, the rest are by Liz).

(Popular and All-Time Favorite Chinese recipes: Broccoli Beef, Sweet and Sour Pork, Egg Drop Soup, Chow Mein, Cashew Chicken, Fried Rice, Orange Chicken, Mongolian Beef, and more.)
Today, I am sharing with you a popular Chinese recipe that is well-loved by many in the United States and all over the world—the famous Chinese Kung Pao Chicken (宫保鸡丁).
Kung Pao is a cooking technique originated from the Sichuan province of China; the authentic Sichuan Kung Pao Chicken (宫保鸡丁) or Gong Bao Ji Ding calls for the staple Sichuan peppercorn for the numbing flavor, however, the version popular outside of Sichuan has since been adapted to many regional variations. For examples: in Malaysia, Kung Pao chicken is served without peanuts, but sometimes cashew nuts are used; in Thailand, fish sauce and sweet soy sauce are used to flavor a similar dish. However, the Kung Pao chicken we get in 90% of so-called Chinese restaurants in the United States is the heavily Americanized version that appears gooey, greasy, and sweet. You will also find all kinds of vegetables in the dish such as carrots, water chestnuts, celery, zucchini, and even broccoli…
I tried to keep my Kung Pao Chicken recipe as authentic as possible, but feel free to tone down the quantity of dried chilies as you wish. I wanted to share the secret ingredient of Kung Pao chicken, which is vinegar in the sauce. It gives that subtle yet characteristic touch to complete the Kung Pao flavor.
If you like this Kung Pao Chicken recipe and Chinese recipes, you might also like the following recipes on Rasa Malaysia:

Our home has 4 computers running Windows 8, no hitches (yet). Three of them were ...
David Brown
The big trouble is that if he installs Linux and then still has to re-install ...
Need to clone Windows 8 – help!
Brian Bailey
My woes with Windows 8 continue, and I know that I haven't even told you about some of the recent adventures yet, but I will. Basically I am now on my fourth install of everything and each time something has happened to totally destroy the running system. Some of them are hardware failure, some because of Microsoft and their determination to stop me from setting up the system the way I want it to operate (I don't think I am trying to do anything unreasonable and desires shared by a large majority of the desktop community), and some from following bad advice from random people on the Internet (Yes, all mothers should warn people about this bad and dangerous habit).
In order to try and stop this from happening again, I want to create an image of my system drive so that if any of this happens again I will be able to restore everything. I am not just meaning a registry backup and already that has proven to be unreliable with Windows 8 as I tried this once and the registry was corrupt – or so it says. I want to create a complete bootable image. I did even buy some software to do this, and perhaps made the mistake of buying the one that, with a mail in rebate, was free. That was Laplink and basically the clone it created did not work and I had been relying on that to save me and found out that it didn't.
Any advice from people out there? Do you know of something that works – reliably – for Windows 8?

O Brian ... it seems like only yesterday that I was reading your blog singing the praises of Windows 8 and poking fun at those of us who had said otherwise ( http://www.eetimes.com/electronics-blogs/maxs-cool-beans-blog/4402814/Don-t-talk-to-me-about-Windows-8- )
Not that I'm gloating ... I hope you get up and running again ASAP -- Max
David Ashton
"Any advice from people out there? Do you know of something that works – reliably – for Windows 8?"
Junk it and go back to W7 :-)
Or do as I do, never use a Windows OS till it's at least 2 generations out of date. I'm still on XP (which causes Max to poke fun at ME.... :-)
I know. This is turning into a nightmare and I am sick and tired of wasting so much time on it rather than actually doing some work!
Brian, I use ShadowProtect (by StorageCraft). It can restore to 'bare-metal', or you can even run your backup as a virtual machine on another machine (even if that machine has different hardware features). This came in really handy when I had to send in my laptop for repair after a lightning strike.
It uses 'shadowing' to maintain the backup, so it is very non-intrusive to use the computer while backup is in progress. Mine does incremental backup every hour, and full backup once a week. I forget it's even there.
I should mention... I'm not running Windows 8, but they claim Windows 8 support.
Too much of my work relies on Office and OpenOffice does not work well enough especially when dealing with files with changes embedded in them. Also many of the applications I use are not supported on Linux. If this were an option, I would have made the jump a long time ago.
David Brown
Before giving up on OpenOffice, make sure you try LibreOffice. It is much better than OpenOffice for compatibility with MS's software. It's not always perfect, but it is generally very close - and has some useful features that are missing in MS Office.
As for other software - I could not do my work without a Windows machine, but equally I could not do my work without a Linux machine. And a lot of what I do can work on either platform - but generally much better on Linux.
David Brown
The big trouble is that if he installs Linux and then still has to re-install Windows, he will realise how appalling the Windows installation process is!
You could try CloneZilla. It's Linux based, it will create or restore an image of your hard disk, and as it boots from the DVD/CD drive on your system, it doesn't matter what state your system is in. www.clonezilla.org
Daniel Payne
Our home has 4 computers running Windows 8, no hitches (yet). Three of them were upgrades from Windows 7 to Windows 7, the fourth cam with Windows 8 installed. I'm running Windows 8 on a MacBook Pro, thanks to virtualization software from Parallels. At least with Mac OS X I can make my own Image, although it's not well documented by Apple, and have the Image on a USB stick just in case I ever need it. The other two Windows 7 systems were custom-built PCs for gaming, and they had no issues upgrading to Windows 8.

Meeting The French Chocolate Tour
I was invited to join the Meeting The French Gourmet chocolate walking tour. Two hours of tasting the best chocolates on the Right bank at 5 different shops in a close vicinity of Metro Concorde (our meetup point). First stop Angelina on rue de Rivoli, with their decadent African chocolat chaud/hot chocolate...
So we can walk, sip and explore further...
Second stop around the corner on rue Cambon is reknown patisserie Pierre Herme...
But Herme's chocolates should never be overlooked. They are superb and his small tasting box for 10 euros is one of the best deals in town IMHO (the price never seems to rise).
As Paul A. Young in London said,
'Buy smaller boxes, more often'.
Don't miss for the nice big chocolate map showing all the flavors lurking behind the counter...
Third stop Jean-Paul Hevin on 231, rue Saint-Honore
We taste chocolates at each stop - our guide advises us on the endless array of flavours and textures.
Fourth stop: Michel Cluizel, where a crowd is leche-vitrine/doing heavy window browsing at 201, rue Saint-Honore
Again choosing would be next to impossible without our guide's experience to depend upon...
What would you choose?
We waltz from chocolate shop to chocolate shop learning Parisien secrets.
Where to get an excellent glass of wine (Le Rubis), which oysters to eat in October(I forget..they begin with a G), what church to pop into for a moment of serene respite from intensive chocolate tasting (St-Eustache on rue St-Honore). Plus a full history of chocolate, the best beans and where they come from. The tastebuds, the feet and the brain are getting a workout.
Last stop is the newish Hugo & Victor. The chocolate concept is seasonally based on wines + accompanying natural flavors.
The Indian Summer chocolate flavor (Almond) available only in September-October comes packed in Moleskine-like boxes. I fell victim
Their towers of macarons are irresistable.
I polished off the last of this pack today. This week's PB posts has been deleterious to my diet.
I also got a figue religieuse at H&V.
Fortunately Fr Girl assisted at the tasteoff that night - by then, post chocolate walk, I could barely take a bite. Meeting the French does a Left Bank chocolate tour and has a new Christmas gourmet tour onboard. I'd love to try it but not this week. I'm in recovery from pastry raids in my fridge :)

If social media were the metric by which elections were won or lost, President Barack Obama would have little to worry about come November.
"I think it will literally make the difference," said Joe Trippi, a Democratic strategist who helped orchestrate the campaign of Howard Dean's failed bid for the Democratic nomination in 2004, after a presentation at the Social Good Summit here.
As of Saturday night, the incumbent had garnered 28.8 million Facebook "likes" and more than 20 million Twitter followers, compared with 7.1 million "likes" and 1.16 million followers for Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney.
"They got left in the dust," Trippi said of the Republican campaign.
But Leonardo Alcivar, the online rapid response director for Romney's campaign, was unimpressed. "If the number of Twitter followers and Facebook friends determined the election, Justin Bieber would be president," he said. "Our supporters are very engaged."
"Justin Bieber's not running," Trippi deadpanned.
He said the role of social media has ballooned since he worked on the Dean campaign. In 2004, "Facebook barely existed," he said.
Even four years later, Obama had just 2.4 million likes, he said.
As the numbers have grown, so too has the campaign's ability to use them, he said.
Two or three states "could look a lot like Florida did in the year 2000," he said, referring to the tight vote that wound up being put in the Republican column, resulting in George W. Bush's victory.

So the manager of the Oxford Street Games Workshop recently mentioned to me that he'd be happy to have a dedicated weekly Specialist Games night at his store.
That means SG systems exclusively on the gaming tables if there's demand for it.
He's offered Wednesday if enough people are interested (6-8ish would be the minimum).
So I thought I'd throw it out there, anyone fancy a regular SG evening at London's most central GW store?
Learners & Veterans both welcome.
Post if you're interested and I'll get back to ya'll if there's enough replies.
