Let me know what you think.
Name: John Robert Taylor
Gender: Male
Age: 37
Height: 5'7"
Weight: 150 lbs
Build: Fit
Ethnicity: Caucasian
Appearance: He is a young man of average size, well proportioned, nor particularly muscular, lean. His face is often rough, with a three-days beard hanging about it, just like any cloth he wears, worn and rugged, be it the doctor's blood-stained coat, or civilian clothes. His lineaments are base, with the line of the temples a bit too angular and squared sometimes. His hair is black, unkept, shaved with a razor on the sides and hand-combed to the left on top of the head. His brown eyes are gifted with a good eyesight and his cracked lips are always bent in a calculating grin. His hands have long bony claw-like fingers with clipped nails. He has an Iron Cross tattooed on his wrist.
Personality: John Taylor is a calculating hyena. He will observe and watch, figuring out whether anybody is less fit for survival. He is racist, rough, unmannered, and while he does no longer believe in the Arian race being superior to others, he would still kill the weaker, and the foreign ones. His allegiance to the group is based on need. Should he find another stronger group that begs for his presence, he would leave his current companions, maybe after poisoning their water supplies. However, he knows how to be thankful to those that went out of their way for him: so far the list is empty.
Morality: (Please state how your character would react to the following hypothetical situations, giving brief answers.)
-Your survivor is leading a group of a few friends and family, and you're all on the verge of starving to death. You know of another some group with plenty of supplies, but they are unlikely to share. What do you do?
Pretend to be harmless, get closer, kill the others, take their supplies, burn any evidence. If they are too many, offer them poisoned water, poisoned food, infected objects, or drive them out with smoke, or other equally unpleasant chemicals.
-Your best friend was bit, but they insist they are okay. What do you do?
Waste a bullet and shoot them in the head. If it were not a friend, do not waste a bullet and kill them in some other way.
-A small group depends on you to survive, but you get bitten, and have at best a few hours before you turn. How do you spend your last few hours?
Spend one hour cursing. Then half hour laughing at the bad luck of the survivors, then shoot myself in the head.
-You have a strong holdout, with just enough supplies for your group. Another group finds you, and asks to be let inside your holdout. What do you do?
Let them in, offer them poisoned food and poisoned water. Take their supplies, destroy the rest of the evidence.
Role: Doctor
Previous Job: prior to conviction, General Doctor at the ER
a 9mm pistol taken from a dead policeman with five shots remaining.
a machete
a swiss knife
a wristwatch
a backpack with a quart of ethanol, a quart of methanol, a quart of bleach, and a quart of gasoline. A quart of hydrogen peroxide, a tube of rat poison, two packs of aspirins, three packs of Coumadin and digital-based blood pressure treatments, one curved needle, three feet of nylon thread, one syringe, four packs of antibiotics, a scalpel, scissors, one shaving blade, two pairs of tweezers, four feet of white elastic bandages.
Character History:
After roaring years as a skinhead, rallying with members of the New Arian Youth, damaging properties, robbing, and assaulting people who did not fit in his white supremacy ideals, John Taylor, aka Robert Irman, decided to change his way of living. He quit the gang, and with no crime on his penal record, he went to school, graduated in Medicine at age 30 and served as a General Doctor at the ER. Over the years, his unit became infamous for the increasing high number of casualties. An internal investigation suggested that the Doctor actively suppressed patients coming in the ward with a very poor prognosis. However, no evidence could be found. Closer investigation and secret monitoring of the medical staff caught the doctor injecting air bubbles in the IV of an unconscious patient. He was locked in a psychiatric ward for 3 years until the world came to an end. To free himself from the ward was easy, as well as to join a group that did not recognize him and offer his services in exchange for the protection of a larger group.
John knows how to ride a motorcycle, how to swim, how to stick a blade in somebody's hip or back and has a deep disliking toward Mexicans.

Monday night we were in the city (Chicago), and on our way into the restaurant, I passed a man in a wheelchair shaking a plastic cup of coins. He was also talking on a cell phone, and as I went by him, I heard him say, "Not now, man, I'm at my job."
I have no way of knowing what personal, societal, and economic forces brought him to that place. But is it judgmental for me to wish we lived in a world where that kind of diligence could be funneled into something more productive?

I don't think that's judgmental at all. At his job, huh? I'm sure I would have wanted to call him out on that, which wouldn't have been smart.

Note how the reporter refers to this as "the principal's mistake." He might be able to get away with that if the principal didn't double down on his segregationist practices in the voice mail.
Of course, I could do the "turn this around and make it for whites only" spin on it, but you already know that. I could also point out that if it was "whites only" this would be lead story on all the TV networks. But you know that too. So here is a new observation; black racists are getting bolder. Yes, the school district has realized they have to do damage control, but the principal seems defiant. That's why labeling this "a mistake" is a joke. He knew exactly what he was doing.

I ran into my ex's best friend yesterday, and had an awkward chat with him before taking the quickest exit in sight. I thought my ex and I were on good terms until I texted him to tell him who I ran into, and got one word answers in response, and then nothing. It made me think: can you really be friends with an ex-boyfriend?
My ex and I have a long and complex background story. We've had good times and bad times, and I'm finally at the point where I can think of him as a friend. The problem is, I'm not sure if he's at that point or not.
I wish that we could talk about our separate lives without it being weird. I'd like to know what he's doing, how things are going for him, but I also don't want to lead him on, or have him think I'm interested again. That seems to be the problem with exes. They always think that you showing an interest in their lives means you want them back. I'm just trying to be a good friend.
It makes me sad that we can never just be friends. Our time together was too emotional, and we were too attached to each other to ever have a normal friendship. Now that I'm thinking about it, I don't keep in contact with any of my past boyfriends. I think that when you have those kinds of feelings for someone, you can never go back to being friends, especially if you were never just friends in the first place.
What do you guys think? Are you still friends with anyone you've dated? Do you still keep in contact? Or do you think that being friends with an ex is impossible?

It does seem appropriate that Glenn Ordway, who forged a lucrative sports radio career from an uncanny ability to orchestrate an argument, will have an opportunity to have the last word.
After 27 years at WEEI, including 18 as host of some incarnation of "The Big Show,'' Friday marks his final day at the station he helped build into a sports-radio powerhouse beginning in the mid-1990s. Ordway, 62, was fired Wednesday, the victim of declining ratings, a high salary, and whether he recognizes it or not, his own hubris.
Great news, hopefully it will be a lesson for all the other hosts. I believe it is called talk radio because there is supposed to be a conversation between the caller and the host and not just a monologue by the hosts.
Interestingly, I was a participant at the now much talked about focus group, and one of the key takeaways was that the group wanted to hear less from the callers and more from the hosts.
It was clear by the questions that WEEI was looking to oust Ordway. We particpants were mostly against such an idea (most of our feedback was that the biggest problem was the change of format away from the rotating guests). But it was clear they had thier mind made up, it seems the foucs group opinion didn't mean anything to them in this regard.
What was also clear was that they really are looking at changing the morning show. Most of the group thought Callahan was the problem on the morning show, but based on thier questions, it appears Dennis will be the first to go. What's funniest to me in all of this is that Mutnanski, the WORST host on all of sports radio, still has a job through all of this.
The firing of Glenn Ordway is only the first change at the struggling WEEI. While Glen waspompous he pales in comparison to Denis and Callahan. Those 2 are responsible for the exodus more than anything. The fact that Jason Wolf allowed them to rant endlessly about politics on a sports format is his ticket also out the door. If they have decided to clean house then surely those three are nex. i would love to see a mid day show with Steve Buckley and Dale Arnold for starters. The always have the utmost respect for the callers and provide expert knowledge of the Boston sports scene. One other comment Do people know that Gerry Callahan is really a very nice guy that cares about everyone and that his on air persoona as a real jerk does not represent who he is in real life. Too bad Gerry just be himself when in fron of the microphone and show the listners who he really is.
Glen Ordway is a clown and the fool most responsible for the dumbing down of sports talk radio in Boston. It is a joke and he is the reason. Bombastic idiotic screaming and laughing at childish attacks is what passes for talk these days. I'm so happy he has been fired and I gleefully await the same for Dennis and Callahan those two knuckle draggers who should crawl off and wilt in their own ignorance. Felfer and Massorati should tone down the sophmoric antics or they will meet the same fate. Anyone with a brain out there?
What amazes me about the downfall of 'EEI is that the Sports Hub has surpassed them while barely having competent on air talent, It speaks volumes as to just how bad 'EEI has gotten. At least Holly and Ordway are up against actual sports talk in Felger and Mazz, their ratings loss is understandable. But D&C can't even muster a ratings victory over 98.5's morning team; a show that follows FM pop music DJ/Shock Jock Frat Boy banter while masquerading as a sports talk show. The fact that the 98.5 clown posse is beating D&C shows how much 'EEI's once core audience couldn't stand the two blowhards and couldn't wait to jump ship. That ship was 98.5, but they're winning by default, not on merit.
As for Ordway, good riddance, he was only slightly less obnoxious than D&C. Here's hoping things work out for Holley (likeable, talented and knowledgeable) and his new partner.
All the weeping tributes to Ordway are a joke. A friend of mine was interning at channel 7 years ago and was assigned to cover a Celtics breakup dinner in the North End. He asked Ordway, then the color guy with Johnny Most, if he could ask him a couple of questions about the broadcasting business. Ordway replied as he brushed by him, "Get lost kid, I'm having dinner with the Celtics." Real classy guy. As for D&C, let Dennis be the next to go. I can't take his finishing sentences for people, or supplying "just the right word" anymore.
Eddie Andelman was funny and entertaining. Guy Mainella was insightful and had style. Cliff and Claff had a unique parochial understanding and appreciation for local sports, and were amusingly outspoken. Bob Lobel was the waggish, smart aleck boy next door who was always fun to listen to. All of them were great and enjoyable to listen to. But like Glenn Ordway they all had a shelf life that eventually expired. In the words of the immortal Counting Crows, "Don't it always seem to go. That you don't know what you've got til it's gone. They paved paradise, and put up a parking lot." Sports talk radio in Boston is turning into a parking lot.
I liked Ordway with Holley. And I like D&C. Let's face it, Callahan and Holley are the stars on EEI. Hope they can be pared with interesting people.
For all that Glenn Ordway has done to architect the current state of sports radio (locally and nationally, historic ratings success, career merging of print, tv, radio, internet, tree of talented industry personalities tied to his show on WEEI), these pieces are justified - even if it pains Chad Finn and others like him to write them. What's obnoxious is the way the writers pat themselves on the back for ultimately predicting the downfall. A broken clock is right twice a day. And a media critic will ultimately be correct. Everything ends. And the bottom line is that it worked - and it worked incredibly successfully and it is being copied all over the country. And as much as it pains the media critics to accept this - just get over it.
IndulgeMe hit the nail on the head. Andelman was rude and ruthless, Ordway brought Sports radio to a new level assisted by the success of Boston teams. EEI was notorious for being rude to callers, quick to cut them off or blow them up (some deservedly so) but overall it was a yelling match. If you don;t agree with the hosts your simply a jerk. 98.5 picked up on this right away, they take calls but are careful not to spit all over them, a la Fred Smerlas- DeOssie etc; To the point where someone at EEI must have picked up on it because EEI backed off their nastiness abit lately. Competition is good, the hubris of EEI got to them, 98.5 does a pretty good job, they definetely avoided some of EEI's pitfalls, so far?
Years ago Sean McDonough wanted to "raise the bar." That's what listeners wanted when they left 'EEI. McDonough's station didn't have the wattage to compete. By the time 98.5 came around many listeners were so fed up they were ready for any alternative. I think 'EEI just stopped listening while they were talking.
Honestly to me the Big Show since adding Holley was probably the best of the sports shows around which tells you how bad sports radio is in this town. Some of it is downright unlistenable when those clowns like Minnehan and that goofy beat writer for the sox come on the radio i have to shut it off. Dale Arnold is really really hard to listen to, Mike Adams act is old and awful, Mutt and Merloni are average at best. The worst on the station though is D&C how these buffoons have kept a show is beyond me, they actually laugh at people who want to talk about sports and not politics. I have turned on to national sports radio because 98.5 is just as bad if not worse. That DA show that was on 98.5 made Mike Adams seem like a good alternative that is hard to do.
D&C have an excellent show in the morning. Some may disagree with their politics but their show covers topics beyond sports that make people think a little. From the beginning they said that their show was going to be more than just sports. They've stuck to that. The 98.5 morning show appeals to a MUCH younger demographic, and that's fine, but I find it more sophmoric than thoughtful.
Someone said it above: everybody has a shelf-life. Ordway had a great run and should be commended for that. He's going out with class and dignity, with no negative comments. Judging from some of the vitriol spewed in these comments, not too many people have the same sense of class.
We can argue all day as to whether D&C present an excellent show or not, it doesn't matter, their ratings have been trending downward for quite sometime and they'll be gone soon enough. Callahan's tendency to make like Mr. Potter from "It's a Wonderful Life" while sounding more like he was working for a Fox News affiliate than a sports station has not served him well. It's a turn off and most do not want to hear it. Same goes for the golf talk the two of them can't steer clear of. Yawn.
Ordway did all he could to hang on. After 98.5 told him to pound sand when he interviewed there when they first stared there move to the top, he knew the clock was ticking. taking a pay cut at eei was the only reason he hung on as long as he did. Johny Most is laughing from above, even harder than Ordaway did very disrespectfully at Johny over the airwaves during celtics ballgames.
To even mention this guy with the likes of Cliif & Claff, Guy M. and the sports huddle group is insane. the big show with fred and steve was shuld have been called "3 fat bastards talking over each other". eddie a. was right all along. Ordway was bad news.
Ordway had a brilliant run and then he got old. Old guys in sports get pushed out. Old guys in talk radio get pushed out too. Someday Felger and Mazz and Holley will get old and they'll get a bullet too. It's the way of the world, part of the great circle of life. I loved Guy Mainella too and eventually he got old, the station wanted to cater to the younger target demographic, and he was gone. It's not a tragedy. Ordway had a great run, much much better than most.
Funny how not enough is said about Jason Wolf. First he passes on both Felger and Mazz as full-time hosts, only to have them team up and dominate EEI in the ratings. Then he replaces Dale Arnold with - Mike Mutnansky????? Now he gets rid of Ordway who, though not as edgy as he once was, was still EASILY the best on-air talent on that station.
Wolf is a terrible evlautor of taelnt, and he, more than aging hosts, is what is burying EEI.

It's one of our best kept secrets: a free, fun, come as you are sort of night. It's the Santa Cruz Lighted Boat Parade, which will launch at 5:30 p.m. Dec. 1 at the Santa Cruz Harbor.
Located on the coast between Seabright and Seventh avenues, the harbor hosts more than 800 boats of many shapes and sizes. It was built in 1964 at Woods Lagoon, which had been paired with Schwan Lake to its east to be known as the Twin Lakes. Today, the harbor is a key economic center which is still recovering from the massive damage to its docks and public facilities suffered in the March 11, 2011 tsunami.
This year's parade theme is "Twas the Lights Before Christmas." Make sure you dress warmly and get there early to find a good spot. It's really a beautiful way to spend part of a night watching boats draped with pearls of light glide along the harbor channel, leaving ripples in otherwise still water.
The event is organized by the Santa Cruz Yacht Club and the Santa Cruz Port District, which operates the harbor. For the second year in a row, the yacht club is sponsoring live commentary by Tom Dexel and Dee Schuyler for spectators in the harbor, which KSCO radio will simulcast at 1080 on the AM dial. The Crows Nest restaurant will again sponsor the judges and Aldo's restaurant will support the commentary. Other sponsors include the Kayak Connection, the SUP Shack, Stagnaro's Whale Watching, and Rainbeau Pictures.
The first parade was held in 1986. Only five boats participated but those who remember that day insist that they had a great time. By 1996, that number had climbed to 45. This year, 30 boats are expected to participate and given the size of the Santa Cruz Harbor and its main channel which is just about right.
Similar holiday parades are held in the Oakland-Alameda Estuary, Newport Beach, Monterey, Ventura and other west coast ports. I've seen the Newport Harbor's lighted boat parade which is 104 years old and hosts more than 100 boats for a five-night period. Other parades are also larger but based on my own experience, ours is the most spirited.
If you plan to go to the harbor, areas near the Crow's Nest, Café El Palomar and Johnny's Harborside restaurants on the east side of the harbor are popular for viewing, as is the area near Aldo's on it's west side. If you plan to have dinner and drinks while viewing the action, space is limited and you should make your plans soon.
Because parking will be tight, you may want to carpool or if you live nearby, walk or ride your bike. Parade watchers can bring nonperishable food items for the Second Harvest Food Bank's food drive. Collection barrels will be at the harbormaster's office at 135 Fifth Ave. and at various other locations.
So head to the harbor, bundle up and enjoy. There will be lights everywhere, and songs to fill the air.
Dan Haifley is executive director of O'Neill Sea Odyssey. He can be reached at email@example.com.

There are two different heating zones in your hall, with zones on the south and north sides of the building. This means that while the heat is on in your room, it may be off in your friend's room across the hallway. The number one problem encountered during the heating season is when residents block the radiator with a bed or a large piece of furniture. This blocks the air flow to the unit and prevents proper operation. Consider this when you arrange your room.
MICROWAVE OVENS are not allowed in the resident rooms. Some floors own a microwave oven which is secured in the floor lounge; check with your RA.

Finra files complaint against David Lerner Associates For REIT Sales to Elderly
Comments off · Posted by admin in FINRA
In a June, 2011, article from Bloomberg News, it was written that David Lerner Associates Inc. has been accused of targeting unsophisticated and elderly customers while selling real estate investment trust (REITs) shares without considering whether the illiquid security was suitable for its clients.
David Lerner Associates is based in Syosset, New York, and known for its "Take a tip from Poppy" advertising slogan, misled investors who bought more than $300 million of shares in the $2 billion Apple REIT Ten offering this year, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority(FINRA) said in a disciplinary complaint on its website. The firm denies the allegations, according to a statement.
It was reported in the Bloomberg News article that David Lerner Associates solicited customers for Apple REIT Ten, it provided misleading information about distribution rates for a series of predecessor securities that are now closed to investors, Finra said. The figures failed to show that distributions far exceeded income and were funded by debt that increased leverage in the REITs, which invest in extended-stay hotels, the regulator said. David Lerner Associates has sold almost $6.8 billion of Apple REIT shares to more than 122,000 customers since 1992, according to the Finra complaint, the industry-funded regulator for U.S. brokerages. Those sales have generated more than $600 million, accounting for more than 60 percent of the firm's business since 1996, Finra said.
This complaint is the first step in a formal proceeding, Finra said. It isn't filed in court, and the firm can request a hearing before a disciplinary panel, the regulator said in its statement.
"The firm conducted thorough due diligence of Apple REIT Ten's offering documents and audited financial statements," DLA said in its statement. "DLA will vigorously defend these claims. It looks forward to the opportunity to set the record straight and expects to be completely vindicated."
Also, in the Bloomberg News article it was stated that in September, DLA paid a $255,000 fine for failing to provide required information in connection with the replacement of variable life insurance policies and annuity contracts from November 1998 through February 2004, according to the New York State Insurance Department. A year ago this month, DLA was accused by Finra of overcharging customers on sales of municipal bonds and mortgage securities. That case is still pending, according to Finra's brokerage records.

No, you are quite wrong on that one. Watch more yuri shows, and probably some V/N's as well.
Anyway....I'm hopign you can freely change her personality and it's not locked to teh worlds like ti seems right now. Some of the personalities I really don't care for how they look...
It'll probably have a gauge that you feel up and when it does you can pick a personality (maybe some will be locked) and HOPEFULLY they'll use that in a strategic way instead of just pleasing otaku's with the LOL SHES TSUNDERE gimmick >.>

Very nice fragrance. The first time I smelled this perfume, it reminded me of a good friend of my mother who always smelled so good to me when I was a child (and I am in my 60's now). I have no idea what perfume she wore but it must be a very timeless scent. I love to wear this on a daily basis. It is not overpowering and would appeal to most age groups.

I have loved this fragrance since my Senior year in high school, "1992" when it first came out. I would wear it to school and the scent would fill the hall.

I have been using Wings by Giorgio for a long time now, but it's not ready available everywhere, and when it is, the cost is much more. The one thing I have always remembered is that even those with sensitive noses have complimented the way it smells, not overpowering like a lot of fragrances.

One of the struggles that our troops face when they return from duty is the battle against post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). PTSD can have a number of effects on a person, including depression, suicidality, and loss of faith, but it is possible to face these issues head-on with a combination of psychological methods and spiritual strength. Indeed, some may find their spirit to be weakened throughout the course of psychological rehabilitation, which can be a strenuous process despite its beneficial effects. Because of this, I've compiled a couple of tips and lessons to help you or your loved ones retain their spirituality and sense of purpose while undergoing therapeutic treatment for PTSD.
One of the most important things you can do to stay well and spiritual in the face of PTSD is engage in practices or activities that simultaneously make you more in tune with the world around you and collected and calm mentally. In order to achieve this state we recommend taking part in some sort of artistic exercise, like painting, writing essays or short stories, and listening to or creating music. This kind of engaging activity can help you relax and can take your mind of the more troubling aspects of your day-to-day life.
Another way to maintain your spirituality is to simply practice what you believe in. This can be very hard for some people, as they may not feel completely ready to get back to their daily, weekly, or monthly routines. Nevertheless, simply taking part in spiritual activities, like praying, meditating, or attending a religious ceremony or gathering, can start you off on the right foot and help ease your way into emotional recovery. As I said, this process can be very painful and emotionally strenuous, so it is important not to bite off more than you can chew in terms of reintegrating your spiritual routine. Once you are back in the swing of things, however, you may find that you feel better every day and that the spiritual component in your life allows you to grow and return to wellness.
There are a lot of people you can talk to if you feel yourself losing faith in the spiritual practices you once were very engaged in. Whether it's speaking to a family member who shares the same beliefs, a counselor, or an official from whichever religion you choose to practice, simply expressing your feelings in spiritual terms can be freeing and can give you a sense of relief. As with getting back into the practice of spirituality, talking with someone can be a difficult step to take, but the rewards you will reap from it are emotionally soothing and can help you on your road to recovery.
The path toward spiritual healing is not one that is taken in a day, but hopefully the tips and lessons I have provided for you can strengthen you emotionally and spiritually and improve your daily life. I have also provided some links and resources at the end of this post in case you would like more information.

For many people that live in Nigeria, you must have heard of Chef Fregz or seen him on TV( Knorr Taste Quest Show..ring a bell?). This dude has amazingggggg culinary skills and is super friendly. I always heard about this guy that went to Olashore (High school in Nigeria) that did amazing things with food and I was like okkk let's see first. Usually when people shout about chefs i'm a bit wary because I never trust their judgements. Then one fateful day, I saw a picture of Chef Fregz eba and Okro on Instagram. I didn't even need to be told that this guy had awesome skills and I wanted to meet him. Fast forward a few months and here we are, cooking together and playing with Nigerian ingredients. It was definitely a fun day. Here is what we made;
Kunun Aya
Spicy Curried Goat with Tuwo Rice
Masa (Serves 5)
2 Cups of Tuwo rice (Substitute – jasmine rice)
1 tablespoon of yeast
1 tablespoon sugar (optional)
1 tablespoon of honey or syrup (optional)
1 cooking spoon of oil
1/2 teaspoon of grated ginger
Soak one cup of the Tuwo rice in water and add 1/2 the tablespoon of yeast. Allow it sit for 4- 5 hours
Boil the other cup of rice and mash it and set aside.
In a blender, pour in the soaked rice and the mashed rice and blend till smooth. Some people use the rice flour to avoid all these steps but I like to go the authentic route.
In the blended rice mixture, pour in your grated ginger and sugar and the other tablespoon of yeast and leave to rise for about 30 minutes or less.
In a pancake puff pan, grease the pan a little and add the masa mixture to fry and flip as well to brown on the other side. Serve with honey or maple syrup if you didn't add sugar or the sugar wasn't enough.
Some people eat Masa with a pepper sauce. It is completely a preferential choice.
Kunun Aya (Serves 2)
1 cup of Tiger nuts
1/2 cup of coconut milk (optional)
1 teaspoon of grated ginger
Pineapples to garnish
Soak the tiger nuts in water for 2 hours
Blend the tiger nuts with 1/2 cup of water
Squeeze out the milk from the nuts.
Mix it with your coconut milk and ginger and serve with pineapple.
We were going to go the route of the pina colada by blending the pineapples and adding them but we decided not to
Spicy Curried Goat with Tuwo Rice (Serves 2)
1/4 Pound of Goat Meat
1.5 Tablespoons of Curry
1/2 cup of Coconut Milk
3 cherry tomatoes
5 scotch bonnet peppers or ata rodo (Reduce if you do not like spicy food)
1 cube of seasoning
1/4 bulb of onion
1 cooking spoon of Vegetable Oil
Fresh Thyme
Tuwo Rice (Substitute – Jasmine Rice)
Season and Boil your goat meat and set aside. (I stole some goat meat from Chef Fregz Asun dish )
Wash and Boil your Rice and set aside.
Chop your onions and pepper and set aside.
Heat up the oil and fry the onions and pepper.
Add the cherry tomatoes whole. (These are those really tiny tomatoes)
Pour in your coconut milk and allow to simmer on medium heat.
Add your seasoning, fresh thyme and curry.
Pour in your goat meat and allow to simmer for low heat for another 3 minutes.
Serve with your Tuwo Rice.

Table of content |
Table of Contents |
In order to do global configuration, it is necessary to be logged in as a global administrator.
Plugin Mechanism
Sonar has been designed to be extensible. Since we believe in the 'eat your own food' philosophy, Sonar is a suite of plugins that use the extension mechanism.
In order to configure these plugins, log in as an administrator, go to Settings > Configuration > General Settings.
Backup / Restore
The whole Sonar configuration can be backed up and restored. This includes: Quality profiles (rules + alerts), manual metrics, events categories, global settings section (plugins) and customization.
WARNING When restoring , it will wipe ALL existing configuration No information about project configuration gets backed up (exclusions, links, quality profile associated...) |
Table of Contents |
The Quality Profiles service is the nervous center of Sonar. It enables to define the various sets of source code requirements that should be used when measuring the quality of projects. It also enables to define acceptable thresholds on measures and to trigger alerts when they are reached.
A source code requirement is materialized by a coding rule in Sonar that is active, configured and has a severity. Here is an example: "A method must not have a complexity greater than 10!". Out of the box, Sonar embarks for the Java language several coding rules (requirements) engines: Checkstyle, PMD and Findbugs. It also provides its own engine for advanced requirements. This represents more than 700 rules in total.
A quality profile is a set of source code requirements. Sonar enables to define several quality profiles to fit various types of projects. Indeed, the requirements are usually not the same when starting to develop from scratch an application or when maintaining an application which is 10 years old, when developing a technical library or a web application. A quality profile is also a set of visual alerts on measures. Here is an example of alert: "Highlight the complexity by method measure in the project's dashboard when its complexity by method is greater than 3."
Here is the entry page of the "Quality Profiles" service:
The Quality Profiles service can be accessed by any users (even anonymous users) but any changes (create, edit or delete) require to be logged in as a global administrator.
A project administrator can only change the quality profiles associated to its project(s). See Project Administration#SettingQualityProfiles.
Creating Profile
To create a quality profile, click on the Create button on the upper right and enter the name of the quality profile:
You can optionally provide some Checkstyle, PMD and Findbugs configuration files to fill the new quality profile with some existing rules configurations.
Copying Profile
In order to copy an existing quality profile, click on the Copy button next to the profile you want to copy. You are prompted to give the name of the new profile. The profile is the exact copy of the copied one. You can then make desired changes to the new quality profile.
Renaming Profile
Click on the Rename button. You are prompted to give the new name of the profile.
Deleting Profile
Click on the Delete button. You are prompted to confirm the deletion.
Deleting a quality profile will delete the alerts defined in the profile and will remove the association with projects. If nothing else is done, Sonar will use the default profile to perform the next analysis on the (ex-)associated projects.
Editing Profile
Configuring Rules
The rules configuration tab is the default page where you land when entering a profile. As there are numerous rules available, a very handy search engine is available in the rules configuration screen to filter only the ones to configure:
A rule can be activated or deactivated in a single click. Its severity and configuration in the profile can be changed as soon as it is activated.
Some "Bulk Change" actions are also available to quickly activate or deactivate a set of rules. For instance, you can easily add all Findbugs rules to an existing quality profile by: selecting this profile, searching for Findbugs rules and launching "Activate all" action:
No extra validation action is required to make changes to the profile. |
Multiple Activations of a Rule
Some rules can be activated multiple times in the same quality profile with different parameters values. Checkstyle Regexp Singleline rule and PMD XPath rule are those kinds of rule.
If a rule can be activated multiple times, a Copy button is available at the end of the rule description:
Clicking on the Copy rule button displays a form to define the new rule from the parent one:
Once the new rule has been created, it can be managed as any other rules:
Editing Alerts
To manage alerts configuration, use the Alerts tab:
From there it is possible to fully manage alerts, by adding new ones, editing or deleting existing ones. Choose:
- the metric you are interested in
- whether the alert will be checked against the current value of the measure or the variation of this measure (available since Sonar 3.4)
- an operator (is greater than, is less than, etc.)
- the value that will trigger a warning
- the value that will trigger an error
Any changes will apply to the next analysis.
Profile Inheritance
Maintaining Quality Profiles can be tedious over time, especially where there are many. To ease maintenance of profiles, Sonar provides the ability of inheriting from a profile. The principle is that for a custom profile, you can decide that it is going to have a parent profile by using the Profile Inheritance tab:
This means that the quality profile inherits all rules defined in the parent. This is shown visually in the rules configuration screen by a small blue marker next to the rule:
A rule inherited from a parent cannot be de-activated but it is possible to change its parameter(s) and / or its severity. As soon as one of those is changed, a red marker replaces the blue marker:
Changes made to an inherited rule can be reverted by using the button Revert to parent definition:
Alerts are not inherited from parent profiles. |
Extending Rules Description
Each rule comes with a description in Sonar, but it sometimes needs to be extended: insufficient description, internal description, note on activation of a rule in a profile... This is why Sonar enables to extend rules description in two ways:
First the ability to extend the description of a rule to give more details for example. This is going to be attached to the rule in every profile and will also be available when clicking on a violation:
But we have also added the ability to comment a rule in the context of a specific quality profile, to comment for example why it has been assigned a high priority or a special threshold:
Associating Project to Quality Profile
To associate projects to a quality profile or to dissociate projects from a quality profile, go to the Projects tab:
When a project is not explicitly associated to a quality profile, Sonar uses the default quality profile to perform the next analysis.
Backuping/Restoring Profile
This backup/restore mechanism is useful for instance to promote a quality profile from a test environment to a production environment or to share quality profiles with contractors.
Click on the Backup button to export an XML file.
To restore a quality profile, click on the Restore profile link on the upper right of the Quality profiles page, choose the XML file to restore and click on the Restore profile button:
Comparing Profiles
It is possible to compare 2 quality profiles to understand the differences between them:
The comparison service shows all differences (rules in one profile but not in the other, parameters differences) and also identical ones:
Version Control
Every time a change is made to a quality profile, it is going to appear in the changes log:
Rules extensions
See Extending Coding Rules for detailed information and tutorials.
Table of Contents |
Sonar comes out of the box with a complete mechanism to manage security. Configuring security in Sonar enables to cover two main use cases:
- Manage access rights to resources, information, etc.
- Enable customization (custom dashboards, notifications, etc.) of Sonar for users
- Secure a Sonar instance by forcing login prior to access to any page
- Make a given project non accessible to anonymous
- Allow access to source code (Code Viewer) to a given set of users
- Restrict access to a project to a given group of users
- Define who can administer a project (setting exclusion patterns, tuning plugins configuration for that project, …)
- Define who can administer a Sonar instance
Built-in Security
Default Admin Credentials
When installing Sonar, a unique user gets created:
- Login: admin
- Password: admin
Add Users
A user is a set of basic information: login, password, name and email.
To create a new user, go to Configuration > Users > Add new user:
Change my Password
Log in and click on your name (the top right of the screen).
Enter the old password, the new one and confirm it:
LDAP plugin When the LDAP plugin is installed and activated, it is no longer possible for users to change their password. Then, only system administrators can do so through Settings > Security > Users. |
The way authorization is implemented in Sonar is pretty standard. It is possible to create as many users and groups of users as required in the system. The users can then be attached (or not) to (multiple) groups. Groups and / or users are then given (multiple) roles. The roles grant access to projects, services and functionalities in Sonar.
A group is a set of users.
To create a new group, go to Configuration > Groups > Add new group:
To add/remove users to/from a group:
Special groups
Two groups have a special status in Sonar:
- Anyone is a group that exists in the system, but that cannot be managed. Every user belongs to this group.
- sonar-users is the group to which users are automatically added. This group can be changed through the Security Global Settings. See Global Security Settings, property sonar.defaultGroup for more information.
There are 4 roles in Sonar, 1 is global, the 3 others are defined at project level:
- Global roles:
- Global Administrators: have the ability to perform all administration tasks on the Sonar instance like global configuration, customization of the home page, of the time machine, etc.
- Project roles:
- Administrators: have the ability to perform administration tasks for a project by accessing its settings
- Users: have the ability to navigate through every service of a project, except viewing source code and settings
- Code viewers: have the ability to view source code of a project
Default project roles
It is possible to configure the system so that when a new project is created, some users/groups are automatically granted roles on this project.
In the example below, once a new project has been created:
- All the users in the sonar-administrators group can administrate (Administrators), access the project (Users) and browse the source code (Code viewers).
- The myAuditor user can access access the project (Users) and browse the source code (Code viewers).
Security Settings
- Default user group: any new user created will automatically join this group.
- Force user authentication: this is really the first question that should be answered when setting the security strategy in Sonar. Can anybody browse the Sonar instance or do you need to be authenticated?
- Allow users to sign up online: this means that anybody can access a form to create himself an account in the system. Note that after filling up the form, the user should log in.
- Import sources: if set to false, source code will not be accessible for any user, to restrict access to source code for some users only, see Code viewers role.
Delegation to an External System
In order to leverage existing infrastructures, Sonar provides the capability of delegating authentication and authorization to external systems through plugins:
- LDAP with the Sonar LDAP Plugin
- Active Directory with the Sonar LDAP Plugin
- PAM with the Sonar PAM Plugin
- Crowd with the Sonar Crowd Plugin
Settings Encryption
Encryption of settings is available since release 3.0.1. |
Encryption is mostly used to remove clear passwords from settings, ie the database or SCM credentials. The implemented solution is based on a symetric key algorithm. The keypoint is that the secret key is stored in a secured file on disk. This file must be readable and owned by only the system account that executes the different Java process (Maven Plugin, Ant task, continuous integration server, sonar server, ...).
The algorithm is AES 128 bits. Note that 256 bits cipher is not used because it's not supported by default on all Java Virtual Machines (see this article).
How to generate the secret key
An unique secret key is shared between all the parts of the Sonar infrastructure (server and code analyzers). It is generated online with the administration console (Configuration > General Settings > Encryption). Follow the instructions to store the key in a secured file on the server, generally in ~/.sonar/sonar-secret.txt
. If the file is elsewhere, then declare its path with the property sonar.secretKeyPath
in conf/sonar.properties and restart the server.
If you want to encrypt properties that are used by code analyzers, then copy the file on all the required machines. Use the same property sonar.secretKeyPath
to change the default location.
When this is done, you can start encrypting settings.
How to encrypt settings
The administration console used to generate the secret key allows also to encrypt text values. Simply copy the encrypted texts in the appropriate locations.
See the Security section of the FAQ.

Comments about Prepac 6 Drawer Double Dresser in Oak Finish:
I was disappointed with the fact that the drawers were not very deep. Although the construction of the unit is very good it had significantly less room than I anticipated.
