Check Into Cash CEO brings historic war painting home to Tennessee
The subject of the painting, Sergeant Alvin York, is one of America's most famous soldiers due to his remarkable act of courage in October of 1918, which is depicted in the Schoonover work.
A painting long coveted by art collectors worldwide is now in its rightful home of Tennessee.
On Veteran's Day 2011 also known as 11/11/11 Cleveland, TN, Mayor Tom Rowland announced that philanthropist and Check Into Cash CEO Allan Jones had completed the purchase of the historic "Sergeant Alvin C. York," created in 1919 by acclaimed artist Frank Schoonover.
"This painting of Tennessee's legendary war hero is regarded as the most sought after World War I painting in history," said Rowland. "We are honored that Mr. Jones has brought it home to Tennessee, which is what Alvin and his family would have wanted."
The subject of the painting, Sergeant Alvin York, is one of America's most famous soldiers due to his remarkable act of courage in October of 1918, which is depicted in the Schoonover work.
York, a native of Pall Mall Tennessee, played a crucial role in the attack of Argonne in France. As an acting corporal, he led 17 men in action against a German stronghold.
Against a heavy German counterattack, York proceeded alone and made history by killing 17 German soldiers with a single pistol.
"The hero eventually brought in a total of 132 German prisoners - a remarkable feat that was can all be proud of," Rowland said.
Alvin York died in 1962.
The artist Schoonover sold the painting originally to collector H.M. Pierce of Delaware in 1926. It was acquired by Blakeslee Gallery in Wellington, Florida in 1998.
Gary Blakeslee, who obtained the painting for the gallery, described it as "the single most patriotic piece of artwork any American could own. It is the quintessential World War 1 masterpiece."
Many people have attempted to purchase this painting from the Blakeslee Gallery over the years, he said, but the collector refused to part with the painting until he found the right owner.
Blakeslee said upon selling the painting to Mr. Jones: "Alvin York the solider who many thought was cloaked by the breath of God - is finally home!"
Prior to being acquired by Allan Jones, the painting had been on loan to the 82nd Airborne Division War Memorial Museum.
Jones said having the painting back in Alvin York's home state was key to his decision to purchase the historic work.
"I was aware of this painting for many years but never thought it would become available," said Jones. "When I learned that Mr. Blakelee would consider a sale to the right buyer, I felt it was important to have the painting here on Veteran's Day 11-11-11. This is an important day for Bradley County and Tennessee."
Jones, the controversial founder and CEO of Check Into Cash, Inc. and the Allan Jones Foundation, made national headlines earlier this year with a donation to the non-profit organization Tennessee Achieves. The donation made it possible for every graduating senior in Bradley County selected by the organization to attend community college.

MN 60 work on schedule
Another detour begins todayWORTHINGTON — Work on the Minnesota 60 four-lane expansion near Worthington moves into the next phase of construction today with new road closures and detours announced by R&G Construction, the Marshall-based contractor leading the project.
By: Julie Buntjer, Worthington Daily Globe
WORTHINGTON — Work on the Minnesota 60 four-lane expansion near Worthington moves into the next phase of construction today with new road closures and detours announced by R&G Construction, the Marshall-based contractor leading the project.
This particular phase of the project will affect traffic on Worthington's east side, stretching from east of the King's Wok restaurant to just beyond the Blue Line Travel Center. Minnesota 60 westbound lanes will be closed, with traffic shifted to the eastbound lanes.
The Interstate 90 westbound lanes will be closed at Minnesota 60, which will mean travelers headed west on I-90 will need to use the U.S. 59 ramps instead.
This traffic pattern will remain in place until early September, at which time the traffic will be shifted to the westbound lanes so the eastbound lanes can be rebuilt with a new storm sewer system underneath.
The storm sewer project will consist of 48-inch pipe that will drain the area under the railroad bridge, which has always been prone to flooding.
That phase of the project is hoped to be completed by July 31, 2013, with the contractor earning an incentive for completing the work by then, according to Bob Williams, Minnesota Department of Transportation District 7 project engineer.
Multiple projects are ongoing, with concrete paving now completed from just south of the Hwy 59-60 juncture to just north of Worthington Ag Parts.
"We expect the bituminous paver to come in later this month to pave the shoulder," Williams said, adding that edge drain installation, which will pull water away from the concrete, will be completed today.
The newly paved portion of the highway will open to local traffic only in late August, with the detour south of Worthington on County State Aid Highways 4 and 5 continuing through November.
A shortcut used by some travelers, via Nobles County 57, was closed about a mile south of town this week as construction crews move closer to Worthington with paving.
"They're in the earth work stage now and we expect them to be ready for paving later this summer," Williams said. That work will also include the paving of the first roundabout, located near Worthington Power and Equipment at CSAH 35.
Williams said the project is on schedule and paced for total completion in November 2013.
The greatest delay has been in the completion of the railroad bridge project. The girders expected to arrive last fall were delayed until April because of last summer's Minnesota government shutdown, and it's now July and the girders have yet to arrive.
"We're hoping they will show up at the end of July — that's the latest schedule from the steel company," Williams said. Since the company manufacturing the steel, Lejeune Steel, missed the April deadline, Williams said it is responsible for paying $1,000 per calendar day in liquidated damages for each day the shipment is delayed.
The new goal for completion of the railroad bridge is mid-December.
"There will be a number of traffic changes this fall yet," Williams said. "Pay attention to signs and be alert."

Building A Digital Culture: How To Meet The Challenge Of Multichannel Digitization Booz&Co Many traditional retailers and other customer-facing businesses have installed new digitally enabled organizations, processes, and systems. Their goal is to remain competitive by building multichannel experiences. However, even well-designed systems can be undermined by a company's established culture.

China's E-Tail Revolution: Online Shopping As A Catalyst For Growth McKinsey&Company Over the past few decades, China has made great strides in catching up to the level of industrialization in other major economies.

The next stage calls for a sharper focus on productivity and a better balance between investment and domestic consumption as drivers of growth--and this crucial turning point has coincided with the arrival of the Internet revolution in China. In this report, the McKinsey Global Institute (MGI) analyzes the clear incremental effect that online shopping is already having on private consumption in China. |

Wal-Mart's Labor Problem: Limits To The Low-Road Business Model Two thousand and twelve, the year of Wal-Mart's 50th anniversary, has proven to be a momentous year for the world's largest retailer, though not in the way company officials anticipated. This year, in the wake of a major scandal involving the apparent violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the company faced an unprecedented revolt of shareholders. With signs that the company is facing increased unhappiness among Wal-Mart associates, there may be major challenges in the company's future. |
FDI In Retail: How Can It Benefit India's Farm Sector? CSIS Opening up the multi-brand retail sector to FDI will help develop and modernize India's farm sector and generate higher incomes for certain farmers. Yet, the story is a bit more nuanced. Large corporations such as Walmart and Carrefour are less likely to work with the millions of small farmers in India that comprise over 83% of the sector. Therefore, in order for small farmers to truly realize the benefits that FDI can provide, they must adapt and pursue other routes. |

On the weekend my parents-in-law and I went to take a look at a beautiful old house that has come up for sale in the area outside Melbourne that we are hoping to buy in. When I'd seen it on the internet it seemed to tick all the boxes; a reasonably large block of land (4000 sq metres) for a residential area, loads of character, and beautiful established trees.
On arrival it has these beautiful iron gates and an impressive view through them up to the house. Doesn't it look beautiful? Even the weather suited the house – all dark and rainy and gloomy – my absolute favourite kind of day.
The garden was full of mature English trees, with lots of gorgeous autumnal colour – reds, oranges and yellows. Can you see the twisted brick chimneys on the house?
And lovely views of the garden through all of the windows. I didn't take any interiors photos simply because of the number of people at the inspection. The property must be some sort of local landmark because it seemed half of country Victoria was there taking a look!
Unfortunately this house didn't tick the boxes for me. Though beautiful, the property is surrounded by modern new-builds, and I dream of not having any close neighbours. It also needed more work than we would realistically be prepared to take on, including lots of rising damp. But the main problem for me was it just didn't give me 'that feeling'; I felt no connection with the spaces and couldn't really imagine spending time there.
My dream country house would have one large communal living space (this house didn't have that):
I particularly love this double-height barn-like living space filled with comfy sofas, books, paintings and antiques.
Lots of relaxed, cosy corners:
And scope to use some dark greys and blues, maybe even black for walls:
And you know I'm a sucker for that traditional, masculine, ultra-warm and cosy den-like look (here it's Ralph Lauren's country library):
So, my happy search continues.
Have a great day,
Naomi x

Current ProjectsStatutory and policy development projects ( SPD)The following Statutory and Policy Development projects are currently being undertaken by the Office of the Murray-Darling Basin Commission under the direction of high-level Project Boards or other high level committees.
The Strategic Investigation & Education (SI&E) ProgramThe following provides a summary of the Strategic Investigations and Education Program (SI&E) undertaken from 1995 – 2005. Projects were done on behalf of the MDBC by government and private agencies with appropriate expertise, under the guidance of various Committees, which included various government and community representatives. The program was used to generate and share the knowledge needed to support policies and on-ground actions. Research informed decision making and priority setting processes and has since provided the fundamental information towards our emerging strategies and programs. The following reports are available: SI&E Program - Irrigated Regions Sub-program This program was part of the MDBC Basin Sustainability Program which provided a framework for coordination of planing, monitoring, evaluation and reporting of natural resource management in the Murray-Darling Basin. The SI&E Program consisted of four main areas: RiverineThis program aimed to support the ecologically-sustainable management of the riverine environment and initiate the generation of knowledge to slow, halt or reverse degradation in the full range of river, stream and floodplain wetland environments. This program provided information to our current Sustainable Rivers Audit, the Native Fish Strategy, the Water Quality Monitoring program and the Living Murray Initiative. Rivers Program - National River Contaminants ProgramThe National River Contaminants Program is a significant research and development program jointly funded by Land and Water Australia and the Murray-Darling Basin Commission.It expands and builds on the highly successful National Eutrophication Management Program, which concluded in 2000. There are currently ten research projects funded under the Program, adopting a whole of ecosystem approach focusing on the combined impacts of major riverine contaminants - nutrients, sediments and salts and their role in ecosystem processes. More information about the National River Contaminants Program Dryland Regions ProgramThis program aimed to achieve a combination of competitive and ecologically sustainable rural industries and healthy communities. This program contributed significantly many MDBC programs including the Basin Salinity Management Strategy and the Risks to Shared Water Resources Program. IrrigationThe irrigation program aimed to facilitate increased adoption of improved natural resource management practices among irrigators in the Basin. Research areas included delivering reliable irrigation data and information, improving irrigation water use, encouraging sustainable irrigation practices and demonstrating environmental stewardship. The program managed a suite of projects that contributed to policy directions for current MDBC programs, such as the Water Quality Strategy, The Living Murray Initiative. and the Basin Salinity Management Strategy. Human Dimension/ Basin CommunitiesThis program was established to increase awareness, share knowledge and assist in people sharing knowledge, skills and attitudes with Basin communities. It aimed to
Projects contributed to many MDBC programs including the Living Murray Initiative and general MDBC Communications, from which the Special Forever and the Regional Youth Conferences continue. These projects are developed by Issues Working Groups (see Project Boards and Committees) and each project is usually overseen by a Steering Committee including government and community representatives.

text: Back to Hawaii News index Posted: Tuesday, August 7th, 2012 9:04 AM HST Former Hawaii gov hospitalized days before primary By Associated Press HONOLULU (AP) Former Hawaii Gov. Ben Cayetano is in the hospital after suffering a bleeding ulcer, just days before the primary election in his quest to become mayor of Honolulu. Cayetano's wife Vicky Cayetano drove her husband to the emergency room Sunday at the advice of his doctor. Campaign Manager Sam Callejo says the 72-year-old had cold sweats and blood in his stool. The former governor is running for mayor as a candidate vowed to stop Honolulu's rail project. Callejo says the hospitalization won't affect his campaign. Cayetano will remain at the Queen's Medical Center until Tuesday or Wednesday, pending tests and surgery. Callejo says that because he suffered a similar episode in 1997 while governor, he knew the symptoms. He was hospitalized for five days back then.

text: Technical Abstract: BirA ligase, a prokaryotic ortholog of human holocarboxylase synthetase (HCS), is known to biotinylate proteins. Here, we tested the hypothesis that BirA ligase may also catalyze biotinylation of eukaryotic histones. If so, this would render recombinant BirA ligase a useful surrogate for HCS in studies of histone biotinylation. Biological activity of recombinant BirA ligase was confirmed by enzymatic biotinylation of the polypeptide p67, a known target of BirA ligase. Importantly, BirA ligase biotinylated both calf thymus histone H1 and human bulk histone extracts. Incubation of recombinant BirA ligase with H3-based synthetic peptides and cofactors revealed that lysines 4, 9, 18, and 23 in human histone H3 are targets for biotinylation by BirA ligase. Modifications of peptides (e.g., serine phosphorylation) affected subsequent biotinylation by BirA ligase, suggesting crosstalk among modifications. In conclusion, this study suggests that prokaryotic BirA ligase is a promiscuous enzyme and biotinylates eukaryotic histones; biotinylation of histones by BirA ligase is consistent with the proposed role of human HCS in chromatin structure.

Help Using the ThesaurusWhy use the Thesaurus?Use HAPI's Thesaurus to look up authorized subject terms. By using the correct subject terms, you can take advantage of the extra work that HAPI's indexers have provided by reading the article and examining what it is about. By using the correct, authorized term you are much more likely to retrieve the full set of potential results. For example, if you were looking for articles about Brazilian film, the correct subject term is "Motion pictures Brazil." If you did a subject search for "Motion pictures Brazil," you would receive 205 citations for articles about film in Brazil. If you had not checked the thesaurus and entered "Brazil film" into the subject box, you would retrieve only 31 citations for articles. Using a keyword search for "Brazil film" would retrieve 66 citations, which is still very far from the 205 citations possible to retrieve by using the authorized heading.
See the Search Help page to learn which type of search will work best for you. How to use the Thesaurus.The HAPI Thesaurus lists all currently authorized subject headings and cross-references used in HAPI Online. The thesaurus is in English, but main headings have been translated into Spanish and Portuguese. Reading the ThesaurusThe HAPI Thesaurus is made up of a series of main headings, "See" references, "See also" references, and authorized subdivisions.
Sample view from HAPI's ThesaurusBased on the sample thesaurus some possible authorized subject terms include:
By using the HAPI Thesaurus you can generate a number of authorized subject terms that can be used for subject searches that provide the most precise results. |

Oxford Selectmen: Aquarion legal expense increase; animal shelter open; tax rate set
Janet Stoica
Patriot Correspondent
Oxford - The first item on the Board's agenda March 13 was a public hearing regarding a telephone pole relocation on Front Street. The request was to grant permission to National Grid and Verizon in relocating their jointly-owned pole beginning 140 feet east of the centerline of the intersection of West Street. As there was no public opposition, the Board voted unanimously to approve the request.
The next agenda item concerned the Town's renewal note for the water company purchase which was presented by Town Treasurer Claire Wilson and Clark Rowell of Unibank. The note sale completion date request was for 3/30/12 and designated for legal expenses for the acquisiton of the Aquarion Water Company's Oxford facilities, currently $550,000, to be increased to $750,000. It was also stated that the pre-trial date was set for May 8th but would most likely be moved months forward according to Chairman Jennie Caissie.
Ms. Caissie further indicated that the Town was fully aware of the expected legal costs involved in the acquisition proceedings. Additional notes and bonds were expected to be refinanced as well and Mr. Rowell mentioned that interest rates were at very low levels and very favorable results were anticipated as a result, saving the Town substantial dollars.
Mr. Terrence Cummings of the Oxford Historical Commission then presented his agenda for the upcoming 100th Anniversary of Clara Barton's Burial to be held on Sunday, April 15th. The Anniversary agenda includes a military encampment, American Red Cross blood drive, and a re-enactment of the Battle of Antietam, which was the first major battle of the Civil War to take place on Union soil. It was noted that Antietam was the bloodiest single-day battle in American history with 23,000 casualties. The Massachusetts' infantry sent 606 troops, of which 259 were wounded.
It was expected that Senator Richard Moore would be in attendance as well as the Oxford High School ROTC and the Oxford Honor Guard. Additionally, the evening before, Saturday, April 14, St. Ann's Church on Route 12 in North Oxford would be hosting a showing of Ken Burns' Civil War documentary of the Battle of Antietam. In the event of rain, all activities would become a scaled-down event to be held at the Middle School.
Christopher Pupka, Town Assessor, came before the Board to present information on the Town's residential tax factor. It was noted that based on the average residential dwelling assessment of $221,100 the tax rate had increased to $13.89/thousand up from $13.08/thousand previously or, on average, a $90/annual increase. The motion to set the residential tax factor at 1.00 was passed unanimously.
Town Manager Joseph Zeneski requested the Board to accept relinquishment of the former School Dept Administration Offices located at 5 Sigourney Street effective 1/5/12. Following questions from the Board regarding building demolition and utility shutdowns, the Board voted unanimously to accept the property.
Town Clerk Lori Kelley had requested appointment of two individuals as election workers until August 12, 2012, and the appointment was unanimous. Corbin Rodriguez of Precinct 1 and Janet Chesties of Precinct 3 were appointed.
The Board approved requests for a 5K Road Race/Fun Walk from the Oxford Graduation Committee to be held on April 22 and a Little League Parade to be held on the same day, both of which were previously coordinated with Fire Chief Sheri Bemis and Police Chief Michael Hassett.
The Road Race registration will start at 8am and the race at 9:15am. The route begins at the High School then to Main Street to Federal Hill Road to Depot Road to Millbury Road back to Main Street and the High School. The Parade will begin gathering at 11:30am in the American Legion parking lot with a step-off time of 12 noon proceeding down Main Street and ending at the Community Center. School Committee members, Selectmen, and the Town Manager were invited to march and to participate in the opening ceremonies to be held at the Stanley Johnson Little League Field, North Oxford.
The Board was then asked to declare the week of March 12 – 18 "Girl Scout Week" and to sign a Proclamation in its honor. The Girl Scouts of the USA are proudly celebrating their 100th Anniversary. Chairman Cassie read the Girl Scout Proclamation in its entirety in honor of all Girl Scouts. The Board unanimously approved the declaration week.
An article for Town Meeting Warrant referring a zoning change at 95 Leicester Street to the Planning Board was approved. Following this approval, Mr. Zeneski advised the Board of their invitation to Community Reading Day to be held at Clara Barton School on April 13; an invitation from Senator Richard Moore's office to attend a March 22 presentation/discussion on the State of Local Aid for fiscal year 2013 to be held in Northbridge; a Flower & Bake Sale to be held by the Oxford EMS Association on April 7 from 8am-5pm as well as April 8 from 8am-2pm at the Fire Headquarters at 181 Main Street; and an invitation to join Harrington Hospital's President Edward Moore, Congressman Richard Neal, Senator Richard Moore, and others at the Harrington Hospital's Hubbard-Webster campus on March 16 to announce a capital-fundraising campaign to construct a new Emergency Dept at the Webster location.
Mr. Zeneski also reviewed the St. Patrick's Day Road Race/Walk sponsored by the Barton Center for Diabetes Education taking place on March 17th; Representative Peter Durant's informal citizen's office hours to be held at Town Hall's 1st floor conference room on March 27th from 9-10am; and spoke of the upcoming application deadline submission of Friday, March 30th, at 4:30pm for the Hannah Harwood Fund Scholarship. The applications can be picked up at the Selectmen's Office in Town Hall. The annual allotment of $1,200 is divided in half and paid in the first & second semester of school to the winning applicant who has chosen to enter the field of medicine or an allied health field.
A reminder was also given that the Warrant for the Annual Town Meeting closes on Tues., March 27, at 4:30pm.
Town Manager Zeneski also presented to the Board an Article regarding changing the initial budget submission date to 45 days before the Annual Town Meeting instead of the current 90 day date due to the fact that more definitive budget numbers are available in the 45-day period. The Board unanimously agreed to sponsor the article. The Bay Path Regional Vocational High School's addition/renovation project was then discussed, pertaining to wording on the Town Warrant regarding debt funding. Selectmen unanimously agreed to secure a spot on the warrant, as set forth in the Bay Path correspondence, for discussion.
Final business included a request by Selectman Dennis Lamarche to declare excess donated animal cages at the Animal Shelter for scrap metal sale. The 16 cages were extremely large and unusable and had been donated to the Town quite some time ago. The Board voted unanimously to declare the cages excess and saleable. The money generated from the cage sales would be placed in the Town's general fund.
Selectman Lamarche also stated that he wanted Oxford citizens to know that the new Animal Shelter received an occupancy permit and is now open and under the management of the new animal control officer.
He further indicated that the Middle School project has its architects and building manager on board and that they are moving forward on the roof replacement. The remainder of the project that included new windows, a heating system, etc. is in review for next year. Additionally, the Town Manager's evaluation is scheduled for May 1st by the Board of Selectmen.
Selectman Michael Voas then asked Mr. Zeneski about the natural gas piping/hookups to Town buildings along Main Street. Mr. Zeneski responded that the buildings without hookups included the Town Hall, Library, and former Police Station. Mr. Voas requested that Mr. Zeneski look into long-term savings from natural gas conversion of these Town buildings. Mr. Voas also requested that Manager Zeneski obtain estimates for conversion from National Grid.
Selectmen then went into executive session for contract negotiations and litigation.

By linking information about transported convicts to birth, death and marriage records for 19th century Tasmania, the project can create one of the richest pre-20th century sources of information for a population that can be followed from cradle to grave.
You can read more at http://goo.gl/kP7Su and at http://goo.gl/8EmXS. You can also search for a convict and read the transcriptions of his/her records at http://goo.gl/8EmXS.

A River of Dreams is a book of photographs featuring Barack Obama's neighbors in Hyde Park, Chicago, celebrating his election as President of the United States in 2008.
However, this book isn't really about President Obama as it is about his example. What lessons can we take from his improbable accomplishment?
To answer that question, I researched what revered teachers from various times and cultures had to say about the power of our dreams to change the world and included some of their quotes alongside of the photographs. I hope you enjoy the result.

Why is the NJ unemployment rate rising while the state gains jobs?
Why is the NJ unemployment rate rising while the state gains jobs?
Another increase in New Jersey's unemployment rate — this time to 9.9 percent — prompted the Christie administration Thursday to wonder aloud if there was something wrong with the survey itself.
Charles Steindel, chief economist for the state Department of Treasury, said the jobless rate told a story that was 180-degrees different from another survey that showed the state added 5,300 jobs in August.
If the unemployment rate is accurate, "this would mean we were losing 600 jobs a day in August, including weekends," Steindel said in a conference call with reporters. "It didn't happen." (Diamond, Asbury Park Press)

Many CTAs have had a rocky year, but few more so than the JWH programs, which as systematic trend followers were broadsided by key reversals in currencies and interest rates early this year.

For the year, the $1.7 billion Strategic Allocation Program was off 16.25%, the $427 million Financial and Metals Portfolio lost...

Benchmarking and code optimization in the browser: Emulators
Update: IE9pp4 gets 9710ms , still slowest
The GameBoy emulator posted over at CodeBase is very impressive. Unfortunately, it's borderline unusable on anything but Chrome. I know Chrome's V8 engine is always reported to be the fastest JS Engine, but the difference is ridiculous.
I dove into the JSGB source and found one problem straight away… a problem that is handled remarkably well by Chrome, but even there it makes things about 15% slower. An emulator is basically a big switch statement: If opcode==a then do A, else if opcode==b then do B. In Javascript, you may be tempted to do something like this:
var table={
That's exactly what JSGB does. It's all fine and dandy if you have few calls, but you have to remember that running a function means much more than just running the code: A new context has to be created, the name lookup chain altered, a new analysis profile for tracing created, arguments passed. An emulator does this constantly, so it's wasting tons of cycles when all you really need is a switch statement:
case a:A;break;
case b:B;break;
The next problem are closures. Going up through the name lookup chain takes its toll, but besides that closures make interpreting Javascript code more complex, making it more likely for the Tracing algorithm to bail out. Apparently on Firefox that's what's happening here. An example:
var value=0;
function increment(){
This may seem simple enough, but already it can cause problems. If you want to make sure, pass everything as an argument. And I mean everything: I ended up even passing the window object as argument. It may seem slower at first, but the Tracer will work and usually take care of it.
var value=0;
function increment(value){
return ++value;
To test this, I wrote my own little emulator (on the page you'll also find results for Firefox, Chrome and Opera)… it doesn't emulate a real machine, just some commands that I needed to implement a sample program: 16bit values, 64k memory, 4 registers plus overflow. Enough to bounce a ball around the screen and see how well the browser handles it using either a switch statement or function lookups.
The results are interesting: Firefox is actually fastest when it comes to pure processing (with the switch statement), followed by Chrome and far in the distance Opera. When you're adding screen updates into the mix (timeouts) the picture changes a bit: Opera now takes first place since it's able to use the whole timeout period to calculate ahead, but that's because my sample program is very short. It wouldn't be enough for a GameBoy emulator.
5 Responses to "Benchmarking and code optimization in the browser: Emulators"
What's interesting is that this is the area where the short benchmark test cases (for example, those mostly found at jsperf.com) actually play an important role. When pressing the boundaries of the javascript interpreter, using repetitive code, these benchmarks suddenly do matter. Where they in most "apps" don't really.
It makes for an interesting optimilization case, that's for sure
[...] This post was mentioned on Twitter by Schmucker, Schmucker. Schmucker said: Article posted about the #Javascript #Emulator benchmark: http://dest.at/EmuBnchA/ . Short version: Use switch(){} and no closures for speed [...]
which version of the emulator accepts if statement?

Next time you're looking for storage ideas for your bathroom, check out your local garden centre!
A great way of keeping shampoo, body lotion, toothpaste etc neatly together is by storing them in plant pots!
There are some fantastic plant pots of all shapes, sizes and colours around and by using these for storage you
will be added an unusual yet practical addition to your bathroom.
I love to add a rustic feel to a room and these pots I found at my local garden centre allow me to add this style to the bathroom.
The great thing about plant pots is they don't mind water!
Unlike wooden or wicker storage which isn't the best material to be in regular contact with splashes of water,
most ceramic or terracotta pots will withstand any amount of water so are ideal for bathroom storage.

Quotation added by staff
...at the present moment to furnish a room as rooms were furnished a few years ago, without going for everything to an auction of second-hand furniture from some third-rate lodging- house. The things are no longer made. However they may object to it, people must nowadays have something charming in their surroundings. Fortunately for them, their assumption of authority in these art-matters came to entire grief.
It is evident, then, that all authority in such things is bad.People sometimes inquire what form of government is most suitable for an artist to live under. To this question there is only one answer. The form of government that is most suitable to the artist is no government at all.Authority over him and his art is ridiculous. It has been stated that under despotisms artists have produced lovely work. This is not quite so. Artists have visited despots, not as subjects to be tyrannised over, but as wandering wonder-makers, as fascinating vagrant personalities, to be entertained and charmed and suffered to be at peace, and allowed to create. There is this to be said in favour of the despot, that he, being an individual, may have culture, while the mob, being... Wilde, Oscar
