M. Hulot's Holiday (Les vacances de M. Hulot) [DVD]
Jacques Tati's cinematic alter ego, Monsieur Hulot, is long-limbed and gangly, polite and friendly, and a disaster waiting to happen. With his white pants pulled up about a foot too high, giving the impression that he is three-fourths legs and only a quarter torso, his foppish hair, striped socks, and slightly sleepy eyes, he is a strikingly funny sight, someone who inspires laughs even befor ... ...

I'm interested in buying a Gaui 330X S quadrocopter (not anymore - X650 or X720). The problem is that I'm a novice in RC flying, and I would therefore like to ask a few questions.
What range should I expect with a radio controller preferably below 300 USD? (Like the SPECTRUM DX6i with a AR6110 receiver)
Is it possible to implement a GPS-module to enable position/altitude hold?
I have been searching for a camera to mount under the quadrocopter, so that I can see live video feed while flying. I would rather not use the camera holder that is intended to be used with it because I think it looks a bit odd.
The cameras I have been looking at are from ACME:
FCO HD 720p
FCO2 v2
But I don't know what else I need to buy to make them work, and what maximum range I may achieve. Nor what screen I should use.
I think that it's important to be able to remotely adjust the camera, at least up and down. FCO3 does have some sort of head tracking with their FPV goggles (which I btw consider too expensive). Maybe it's possible to manually control the camera from the base unit?
12 minutes of flight time seems a bit to short. Is it worth it to use a 4000mah battery like this http://www.truerc.com/[...], or should I use a smaller one?

Hi guys, not too long back i began collecting 78's, just to see what they would sound like, and now i cant get enough of them.
I have started my own little collection (althou i find hundreds i only buy what intrests me), i have a couple of elvis, armstrong, fitzgerald, ellington, gene krupa,benny goodman, louis jordan etc. I love this stuff but am really trying to get the best sound possible so i recently purchased a shure n55e3, but i have quiet a bit of (surface) noise; I've read a couple of other posts and there are some really knowledgable people here.
I have some records that are over 100 yrs old, and have been played with some unsavory needles, what could i do to get the best out of them, needle size is a big problem, i have a couple of those old (50's-60's) needles that you turn to lps or 78's, do these maybe work better for these?
Would love to post some pics of my stuff if anyone is intrested but not sure hoe to, any suggestions, and where could i go see what you got?

The historical centre of Milan has a fairly regular and round shape, with compact grid of building and roads, typical of medieval cities. The centre is not particularly sizeable and a good part of it is a pedestrian area. Without a doubt the best solution is to visit it by feet. The cathedral ("Duomo") is magnificent and dates back to the beginning of the 14th century when French workers began its construction. The Duomo has unmistakable gothic shapes covered with white-pink marble from Candoglia and it overlooks a big square ("Piazza Duomo") always crowded with tourists, peddlers and locals who walk across the square everyday to go to work. The impressive cathedral counts 135 pinnacles and 3400 statues, and it is topped with the statue of "Madonnina" (little Virgin Mary), which is the symbol of the city itself. Next to the Duomo is the imposing Vittorio Emanuele II Gallery ("Galleria"), a proper road covered with a glass and iron structure that connects the Duomo square with the La Scala square. The Galleria is also called Milan's "salotto" (sitting room). It is cross-shaped (a longer gallery crossed by a shorter one) and at the crossing a large octagonal space opens, covered with a transparent glass dome, a true jewel of 19th century engineering. The La Scala square is named after La Scala theatre, renown world-wide as "the" opera and music theatre. La Scala was built in the 18th century by architect Piermarini. It has recently been restored and refurbished by architect Mario Botta. Facing La Scala is Palazzo Marino, built in the 16th century by Galeazzo Alessi and currently housing the town hall. Overlooking the Duomo square are also a side of the Archbishop's See ("Palazzo dell'Arcivescovado") and the ancient Doge's Palace ("Palazzo Ducale"), currently called "Palazzo Reale" (Royal Palace), restored with a neo-classical touch by architect Piermarini (the same of La Scala). Opposite the Duomo Square are Via and Piazzetta dei Mercanti (Merchants' street and square), with the "Palazzo della Ragione" (Reason's Palace) dating 1228. This area constitutes the medieval heart of the city and the remnants of the Municipality period Not far from here are via Speronari and Spadari with their high-end food shops. The pedestrian via Dante, which offers numerous opportunities for shopping or having a snack, runs from the Cairoli square towards the Castle of the Sforza family ("Castello Sforzesco"). Via Torino and Corso Vittorio Emanuele, both originating from Piazza Duomo but running in opposite directions, offer endless shopping opportunities and often witness a young crowd's shopping frenzy. Strolling along via Torino it is possible to admire the church of "Santa Maria presso san Satiro", built in 1476 by architect Donato Bramante (with the exception of the facade which dates from the 19th century).

Welcome back to our monthly look at the big WWE Events. This month we get the former Backlash as Extreme Rules rolls around. In the past, this card tended to feature a series of Wrestlemania rematches. This year we get three, although there were only supposed to be two, so we can give them a bit of a pass on that.
This card has been built around the Steel Cage match between Brock Lesnar and Triple H, as well as the WWE Title Match between John Cena and Ryback. If we can think back a scant 8 months ago, Ryback looked like he was all set to be a huge face for the company and they even hot-shotted him into a title match with CM Punk. Yet somehow or another, he has yet to win a PPV Match against any regular WWE talent, even his match against Mark Henry, which seemed like it was custom made for him to win. His heel turn has yet to really and truly take off, so it seems unlikely that they'll give him the win, but that didn't stop them from giving the title to JBL almost ten years ago, and that one turned out just fine…
Enough with the preamble, let's get to it. As always, matches are in the order that they should occur.
YouTube Pre-Show Match
The Miz vs. Cody Rhodes
What SHOUD Happen: This match was clearly just thrown together with little to no reason. Wasn't The Miz feuding with Wade Barrett? Anyway, there is some potential here, but it is a bit of a stretch to bare with me. The Miz is rolling along just fine ready to win and Damien Sandow runs in to give Cody the win. The Rhodes Scholars continue to torment The Miz in the coming weeks. Miz searches for a partner to take these guys out, trying people like Zack Ryder or Justin Gabriel to no avail. Finally in a month or so, he find the perfect partner to take them on: John Morrison!
What WILL Happen: The Miz returns from an injury that nobody knew he had and Cody seems to be treading water, expect The Miz to win this one.
Match #1
Randy Orton vs. The Big Show
Extreme Rules Match
What SHOULD Happen: Man is Randy Orton ever boring! This feud does nothing to me, but they are both big names and fighting in a match that shares its namesake with the event, so it's most likely to jerk the curtain here. There have been rumours of an Orton heel turn for months so let's have that plan start here. Big Show gets extra ruthless and wins after choke-slamming Orton off the stage, or something else equally sadistic. After taking a few weeks off Orton returns with more of a killer instinct and starts to return to his heelish ways before finally snapping on someone, like say Sheamus to kick off a later feud.
What WILL Happen: Randy Orton is the master of filler PPV Matches, just ask Alberto Del Rio. Orton will win this one and fairly cleanly too.
Match #2
Kofi Kingston vs. Dean Ambrose
United States Title Match
What SHOULD Happen: This is one of the most predictable matches on the card. Ambrose wins this one, and hopefully cleanly. After the match, let's have Reigns and Rollins come out to try and give Kofi a beatdown only for team Hell No to come ut and chase them back through the crowd.
What WILL Happen: Ambrose will probably win after some kind of cheating.
Impromptu Match/Segment #1
What SHOULD Happen: As The Shield celebrate their first title win, Teddy Long comes up to them and says that if Ambrose gets involved in the tag title match alter that he will be stripped of his newly won US Title. The three members of The Shield remain remarkably calm with that…
What WILL Happen: John Cena makes poop jokes about Ryback.
Match #3
Alberto Del Rio vs. Jack Swagger
I Quit Match
What SHOULD Happen: Really, is there anything other than an Alberto win that can happen here? Swagger really needs to serve his 30 day suspension, and this is the perfect time to do it. Have him locked in that cross-arm breaker until he quits and his "injured" for a while. Right after Alberto wins, we can even have Ziggler and Langston come and deliver a beatdown to both Alberto and Rodriguez, leaving people to wonder if Ziggler was faking it or not.
What WILL Happen: Del Rio will win, he has to right?
Match #4
Sheamus vs. Mark Henry
Strap Match
What SHOULD Happen: This match sort of depends on what the long term direction is for both main belts. It looked for a while like we were going to get a Cena-Henry feud, and we still may. However, Sheamus is a logical challenger for Ziggler. However, Ziggler seems to have plans for the immediate future, so let's go with Henry getting the win to get him into a feud for the WWE Title soon enough.
What WILL Happen: This is similar to Orton-Show, and when in doubt with this company, go for the face or the bigger name. So expect Sheamus to get the W here, especially since Henry stood tall on Monday. Expect Sheamus to reenter the World Heavyweight Title scene soon.
Match #5
Chris Jericho vs. Fandango
What SHOULD Happen: First off, this match should be given a gimmick, but that doesn't seem to have happened. Fandango should look strong here and get a cleanish win. Hopefully he can recapture some of the excitement that surrounded him only a month ago.
What WILL Happen: Fandango will probably win, but I imagine he will look weak in the process, much like he did at Wrestlemania.
Match #6
Team Hell No vs. Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns
Tornado Tag Team Match for the WWE Tag Team Title
What SHOULD Happen:...and so it ends. Easily the most entertaining tag team title run since Edge & Christian is out of time. The Shield are certainly very worthy to tag the belts here. This match should be fantastic and will be a strong contender for match of the night. Remember a while back I said that Dean Ambrose should be banned from ringside? Well let's have a run in by a mysterious newcomer to help The Shield win the title. Later it can be revealed to be Connor O'Brian from NXT, who would be a great addition to this stable.
What WILL Happen: The Shield will win and should come out looking very strong. I wouldn't be surprised to see Kane and Bryan have some miscommunication to lead to their loss here, possibly with some Ambrose interference.
Impromptu Match/Segment #2
What SHOULD Happen: Antonio Cesaro comes out to complain about not having a match only to get interrupted by Wade Barrett who says that he should complain, since he is Intercontinental Champion after all. The two heels banter for a moment only to be interrupted by a returning Christian! He tells them both to stop boring people and is able to clear the ring. Next month we can have a triple threat match for the IC Title.
What WILL Happen: Surely a Diva's match of some sort, right?
Match #7
John Cena vs. Ryback
Last Man Standing Match for the WWE Title
What SHOULD Happen: Yet again, the company has booked themselves into a corner here with Ryback. Coming fresh off a hell turn, he really needs a win, but he's clearly not ready for the WWE Title, especially since Cena just won it. The stipulation gives a perfect out, a double KO. Ryback looks strong, Cena keeps the title, ta-da everyone wins…or at least fails to lose. Next month we can get a four way match with Ryback, Sheamus, and Mark Henry all challenging for the title which could allow Henry and Cena to pair off after.
What WILL Happen: This match is going last for sure and it will end with Cena overcoming his ankle injury and getting the win for sure.
Match #8
Triple H vs. Brock Lesnar
Steel Cage Match
What SHOULD Happen: Here we are, the rematch that nobody asked for…again! The first match at Summerslam was decent, the rematch at Wrestlemania was absolutely boring, so hopefully this one will be somewhere in the middle, at the very least. I don't understand how Brock Lesnar has been worth it for the company at all, especially since he has gone 1-2 against already established stars. Lesnar needs this win in a bad way, as he clearly can get more mileage than Triple H.
After Lesnar wins he and Heyman should yell out "BEST IN THE WORLD" as the show ends…
What WILL Happen: Lesnar will win on the account of interference, possibly from a returning CM Punk.
For those keeping track the card for WWE Payback in Chicago next month SHOULD include:
- WWE Title Match: Cena vs. Henry vs. Sheamus vs. Ryback
- World Title Match: Ziggler vs. Del Rio
- IC Title Match: Barrett vs. Christian vs. Cesaro
- The Shield (including Connor O'Brian) vs. Kofi Kingston, Team Hell No and Randy Orton
- Diva's Title Match: Kaitlyn vs. AJ Lee
- Jericho vs. Fandango in a gimmick match
- CM Punk calls out Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar (setting up Lesnar-Punk at Summerslam)

With so many fabulous YA books coming out in 2012…it's hard to choose which ones to put on my tbr list. Below are the books that I have my eye on and why I'm interested in reading them! Of course, as the new year progresses more books will be released. I'm going to do this in sections.
Upcoming 2012 YA Books:
- INSURGENT by Veronica Roth – I LOVE Divergent. After turning the last page I can't wait to find out what happens to Tris and Four. I haven't been this excited about a dystopian book since The Hunger Games.
- PANDEMONIUM by Lauren Oliver – Delirium is another solid dystopian. It features great characters and a wowzer ending that had me screaming, "You gotta be kidding!"
- A MILLION SUNS by Beth Revis – Across the Universe is on my list of best books for 2011. Though the mystery is somewhat predictable the world Revis created is magnificent!
- ENSHADOWED by Kelly Creagh – Varen and Isobel are one of my all-time fave couples. I read Nevermore over a year ago, but the book still lingers in my mind.
- THE IMMORTAL RULES by Julie Kagawa – Great cover! I'm so not over vampires and Kagawa's book sounds awesome. She's an incredible storyteller. In my opinion, the magical world she created in her Iron Fey series is by far the best since Harry Potter.
- BORN WICKED by Jessica Spotswood – Love the cover and the storyline sounds fab! Described as A Great and Terrible Beauty meets Cassandra Clare.
- THE WAY WE FALL by Megan Crewe - Have you seen the blurb for this one? "It starts with an itch you just can't shake. Then comes a fever and a tickle in your throat. A few days later, you'll be blabbing your secrets and chatting with strangers like they're old friends. Three more, and the paranoid hallucinations kick in. And then you're dead." Uhhh…yikes! If you're an aspiring writer you should check out Crewe's blog. She gives wonderful writing advice.
- TEMPEST by Julie Cross – Not only is this one of my fave covers of all time, but this book has been on my radar since I first heard about it. This time travel novel has generated mega buzz!
- THE SELECTION by Kiera Cass – Striking cover! I'm still liking the cover trend of girls in pretty dresses. The main character's name is America Singer. It's set in a dystopian world of glittering gowns, jewels and royalty!
- THE MASQUE OF THE RED DEATH by Bethany Griffin – This story about a teen girl who hangs out in a nightclub called The Debauchery Club awakens my inner Goth.
- GRAVE MERCY by Robin LaFevers – One of my fave authors is R.L. LaFevers. I love, love, love her Theodosia Throckmorton MG series. Her debut teen novel, Grave Mercy, is a high fantasy about female assassins! Sign me up!
- SWEET EVIL by Wendy Higgins – You have to be dead to not like this sexy cover! It's about fallen angels and demons.
- SOMETHING STRANGE AND DEADLY by Susan Dennard – Another fave cover for 2012. It's about zombies in Victorian England — that's not all it's about, but you get the picture. I'm a big fan of Dennard's fabulous writing advice on her website. I'm following her guidelines for revising a manuscript.
- TAKE A BOW by Elizabeth Eulberg – It's about four friends who attend a performing arts school. I'm not a big YA contemporary reader, but I got a kick out of The Lonely Hearts Club. I'm definitely reading this one!
- WHEN THE SEA IS RISING RED by Cat Hellisen – It's about a teen girl who fakes her own death to avoid an arranged marriage within her magical world. Then something shocking washes up on the beach. Okay, you had me at hello!
Are any of these on your must read list for 2012?

At a press meet held at the Rajshri office in Mumbai, Sonu Sood and Isha Koppikar, the lead actors of their forthcoming venture 'Ek Vivaah Aisa Bhi', spoke on the film and their roles in it. Watch the photo Gallery..
Rajshri Productions will release its new film Ek Vivaah Aisa Bhi on 7 November.
The film is directed by Kaushik Ghatak and stars Eesha Kopikar and Sonu Sood. Rajshri production cannot dither from the marriage theme, after the success of Vivah, its coming out with Ek Vivaah Aisa Bhi . Raj Kamal Barjatya who had written the story for Vivah has written the story for Ek Vivah Aisa Bhi as well.
Director Ghatak says, "The two movies' titles are not related to each other and Ek Vivaah Aisa Bhi is not even a sequel to Vivah. It is completely fresh story by Raj Babu." This is what he had to add about the story "There are twelve kinds of marriages in India, but the marriage between Eesha and Sonu is of a very different kind, hence the title Ek Vivaah Aisa Bhi. They fall in love and have to stay away from each other for twelve years, due to certain circumstances. Whether or not they get married and how, will be discovered in the movie."
'Ek Vivaah Aisa Bhi' could be the big break that the Khallas Girl 'Isha Koppikar' has been praying for, she hasn't got much too talk about since the time she landed in bollywood. As for Sonu Sood, he is beginning to grab meaty roles, people has appreciated his performance in Jodha Akbar, hope he delivers a strong performance in this movie. On the other hand, Rajshri is a true Baniya company, "never tread an unexplored path" is their mantra, you can expect Ek Vivaah Aisa Bhi to be another mushy-mushy lovey-dovey sort of romantic movie
beautiful i really love dis movie sonu&esha good job u guys expression in dis movie was just so beautiful and the choice of music chosen by d director was so prefect.
congrats to sonu sood and esha..i loved you both so much so that i carried this cd ek vivah with me to share with my family..its a clean loving and graceful movie.
sonu sood expressions are so warm and appealing, i liked while he was singing and i keep listening to those songs when i feel like..all the best sonu, hope you will choose such beautiful movies here after..you are really meant for such roles…..my friends too started liking you, when will i get to see you…it will never be .only your movies..i am tracking you down and everything about sonu in the internet.
The movie was so beautiful and heart warming, i loved both the actors sonu and esha, every expression and warmth radiated through this movie, the beauty of true love and being faithful to one another is the highest value..this movie brings out the best message ..congrats to Rajeshri production. sonu was the right actor and he was really magnificient and i liked him very much and explored about him in the net..hope he will get such roles…a good choice
EK VIVAAH AISA BHI : It is really a Magnum Opus
This movie is really a heart touching movie and answer to all those film makes who are trying to derogate the Indian culture. I really want to salute the whole team of the movie for their excellent work and it is a gift for all those who are on the verse of obviating their value systems. The star casts have done great job and justified their roles. Sonu Sood and Eesha Koppikher were excellent in the role. I am surprised to see the role that specially Eesha had played. " Where were you Eesha yet now?†You are really a great actress.
Beside this I want to thank the audio team for giving such a marvellous music. I have seen this movie 15 times in 10 days and again planning to see it soon and each time I am exploring the new and unique experience. And the music, that I can't count, how many time I have enjoyed.
Speciality of this movie is that it is for all genre of people. It is really a MAGNUM OPUS. When I saw the movie first time, I found it best movie of the 2008. But after watching the movie some more time and enjoying its music, now I can say that it is the best movie I have ever seen in life.
Arya Gaurav (MBA)
"Ek Vivah Aisa Bhi" is the best movie of the year……
best movie of the year……
i m crazy for such lakh movies
i like rajshree films…..
vivha is my one of the best movie…………..

Okay-back from Jamaica and the Lionfish Safari. Not as many of the pesky little critters as last time. The locals have been doing a good job keeping them thinned out since they found out Lionfish taste like grouper! We avoided the worst of Hurricane Isaac, and were able to get in some serious diving after Monday (8/27). Water was very murky and pretty rough until then. Had a very attractive young lady from Chicago diving with us named "Jen". We were all sorry when she left.
Desk piled at the office (no surprise), but I will be getting up to X-10 for some pre-season scouting before the opener. Have to dig out the pistols and do a little range checking. Don, if you are over your "Senior Moment", do you know when you are going up to X-12?

Hey Saw !
Hope you had fun ! Hope you didn't poke Jen with your spear... What Senior moment are you referring to ? I don't remember anything ... Leaving the 13th. Camping at Buckeye. Hunting Buckeye and Bodie Hills. Hooked up with a great guy on here called Sierra Intruder. He lives in Bishop. He aslo has an X12 tag and has been doing a lot of scouting. The friend I met named Mike who shot the big Lope in the Big Valley unit where I was has an X9B tag. He and a friend are taking their horses in at Sawmill Canyon. We might meet down in Bishop one night for beer and steak. You won't be far away. I have your cell # . Think you have mine. If it happens, I can call you to see what's up and if you can make it. My son and friend have Verizon if AT&T doesn't work. I'll PM you their numbers in case mine doesn't. Welcome back !
I think NoMoOldNo7 will be hunting in X9A. We talked about some places we knew.
Maybe he will post in.

X-10A does not open until the last Saturday in September, but I will check with you when I get up there to scout around. Was able to spear four Lionfish. No pics. of them on the spear. Maybe I can post a picture of one of the survivors.

I thought X10 (X10A?) was the same as X9A,X9B and X12 that open on 9/15 ???
I see it opens on the 29th. Now your scouting makes sense to me...
My scouting never makes sense to me because it is always subject to cancellation or fragmentation due to work.
Patron Life Member, NRA; Life Member RMEF, SCI, NAHHC, NSRPA
Too bad you didn't get to pre scout but I never get to either unless it's local and even then they are always in the same areas. Costly these days to go long distance's to scout. It's not a lot of fun to go by yourself sometimes. Too bad you have to. Wish I could go with you. You could probably use another mule...

Oct, 6 2011 India- Woke up with the fragrance of festivals. Dusshera celebrations, Durga Puja and Happy Dusshera Messages, phone beeping didn't let me sleep. Finally picked my phone to reply to the wishes of friends and family and then a beep again, 'One new mail'- the mail was a feed from Huffington post and the headline said, 'Steve Jobs dead'. :O
In a state of shock I switched on my T.V and everywhere there was a celebration mode. I could only find a ticker running on Times Now as 'Steve Job dies' and the news confirm.
I don't know why I was feeling so sad on one thing that I wish I could have met him once and in the rush opened my Laptop to read what happen. The techo-sphere was filled with condolences from the netizens. For the first time Google offered an obituary on its Homepage; Steve Jobs- 1955-2011.
In the middle of all this a line stuck me, Oct 4- for the first time Tim Cook revealed Iphone 4S and on Oct 5, Steve Job dies. Though it's just a coincidence but still I couldn't let it go away.
A man who has given his life for a dream to change the world with Apple, he couldn't succeed in changing the world but he did changed our lives with some master pieces like Iphone , Ipad, Ipod and Mac. For him Apple was everything he would have battled for and that could be observed with him appearing in Conferences, Launches and Apple Events. He was battling with Cancer from almost a decade from now for apple. His sudden appearance in the launches, leaving people appalled and delivering the best has proved his devotion for Apple. This Coincidence is Coincidence or the man was content to see Tim taking his way and now he can take rest from his duties after all he chose Tim Cook out of the best in Apple.
Steve Jobs once said:
"..the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. "
Hopefully he died in full satisfaction with what he has done and has achieved.
The world will miss this genius.
I express my heartfelt gratitude and deepest condolence to Steve's family.
'After all he only said, 'Death is the destination we all share'

Location: Floral and Nursery Plants Research Unit
Technical Abstract: The genus Spermacoce is a wide spread, common weed that frequently occurs in agricultural situations, and is a member of the family Rubiaceae. Diodella apiculata is a wide spread weedy species found in Central America, the Caribbean, and South America, all the way to Argentina. Two earlier names, S. strigosa and S. hyssopifolia Sm., would require that the name of this species be changed to Diodella strigosa, a name not used since it was first described. Therefore it is proposed that the two earlier names be rejected, which would permit the continued use of Diodella apiculata for this common, weedy species. Spermacoce hyssopifolia Willd. ex Roem. & Schult. is found throughout the Amazon basin and its tributaries. The existence of S. hyssopifolia Sm. would require that S. hyssopifolia Willd. ex Roem. & Scult. be changed to S. linearis, a name also not used since its publication. Therefore it is proposed that S. hyssopifolia Willd. ex Roem. & Scult. be conserved to insure its continued use throughout the Amazon basin for a wide spread weed.

I've been using JWebUnit for awhile, and while I appreciate the ingenuity that went into writing it, I find that creating tests with JWebUnit is a daunting, time consuming task.
Does anyone in the forum have any experience using another web test tool, free or otherwise?
What I'm looking for is a tool that can ...
1) Allow one to create test cases by pointing, clicking, and typing into a browser.
2) Allow slow playback of test cases so that a non-developer can understand what's being tested. Of course the tool should also allow fast playback.
3) Allow for simple testing of expectactions. With JWebUnit I find that I very rarely go any further than checking that the expected title and one or two expected Strings is present, and that's fine. In my project the web tests are mostly tests of navigation-- core testing is left for either JUnit or DBUnit extensions.
4) Allow hooks where java code can be executed. For example, at the beginning of a test case, I almost invariably like to call off to a DBUnit utility to setup the database appropriately.
5) Ignore minor javascript errors that don't actually affect the user's experience.

Quite the way to celebrate your anniversary! Bill and I celebrated our 43rd on the 18th by playing "Chicken Bingo" (delicious chicken dinner followed by bingo)! Not exactly a safari, but we did see some "exotic" bingo players - does that count?? Happy Anniversary to you both!!
On Safari!
Trip Start
Jan 30, 2010
Trip End
Mar 10, 2010
The wildlife stars here are undoubtedly the penguins. On the Antarctic Peninsula – the three commonest species are gentoos, chinstraps and Adeles. Not the largest varieties – the giant penguins are rare sightings here - but tens of thousands of birds and it would be impossible to tire of watching them. They are completely unafraid of humans – quite the opposite - they are very curious, particularly the chicks and the colonies are a constant buzz of activity. It is incredible to watch penguins clambering over the rocky terrain, climbing up near vertical ice cliffs, leaping out of the water just waddling around, or as the Adele penguins do, marching in columns! This part of the world is just a bird-watchers paradise – massive ones with wingspans of up to 3 metres (11 ft) like the albatross and the giant petrels, many other variety of petrels, skuas – which look a bit like pigeons on steroids and which attack and eat baby penguins and many others whose names we've forgotten. Seals are less entertaining – they mostly ignore us other than looking mildly irritated that we have woken them up, but we've found huge elephant seals, aggressive leopard seals which eat penguins, magnificent-looking fur seals, and very cute and appealing Weddell and crab-eater seals.
But of course, what everyone wants to see are whales. When even one is spotted, the word quickly gets out and there is mass excitement and stampeding for cameras. According to the expedition leaders, we have been very lucky with our sightings – but then perhaps every group is! We've had a minke whale playing for a while around the ship and a couple of zodiacs which just happened to be in the sea at the time, seemingly enjoying entertaining us. In the stunningly beautiful Paradise Bay, we came across a pair of humpback whales – a mother and calf – quite unconcerned as we approached within 10 feet of them in our zodiac. There was great excitement when we encountered a pod of killer whales (apparently a rare sighting in this part of the world) in a particularly beautiful channel renowned for its spectacular sunsets. The sighting caused near hysteria on the boat. The sunset was ignored and people stampeded round the decks trying to get the "money shot" of leaping orcas. It was bitterly cold and we had the feeling that the whales were playing with us – always surfacing about 100 yards ahead, despite the best efforts of the ship's captain to get closer! We mostly agreed that you get a better (much warmer, if less spectacular) view of killer whales at Sea World!! But the prize sighting was of a pod of around eight humpback whales which for nearly an hour entertained the entire ship, passengers and crew on a bitterly cold evening, as they played around us – leaping, diving, swimming back and forth the under the ship, and most amusingly, swimming on their backs waving their flippers!! And then as we began the return crossing of the Drake Passage (mercifully, almost calm – a big contrast to the outward journey) we encountered a pod of fin whales (size-wise, second only to the blue whale) accompanied by a small group of hourglass dolphins – the only species found in Antarctic waters.
So think about this part of the world for your next (or even first) safari!
Apologies for the patchy wildlife photography – it's very hard to get whales in particular to pose!!

I'd great results with AT42QT1011 ( 6 cm of detection) but i have some issues.
Is it possible to connect the chip to the sensing plate with 1 metre cable and avoid interference?
Which method should i use (gnd shield, driven shield)?
The QT1010 and QT1011 work like the QT113 in basic mode. Only on while touched. The difference is the 1010 has a stuck key timer. These are good for keyboard, switch use.
The QT1012 only operates as an on/off toggle, like for lamps and such.
Also, the default output level has been changed to active-high so you don't have to invert the signal any more.
according to farnell its no longer manufactured, are there any alternatives?
These seem to be the newer equivalents to those old chips, and they look like they're much better, as, for instance, you only need to apply Vdd to one pin instead of the three in this instructable. It makes for a much neater setup.
I han no luck buying QT113 - its not common in our country and dont want to order it from abroad ...
Id like to modify another project (http://www.instructables.com/id/Table-for-Electronic-Dreams/) and make it proximity sensitive - could be pretty cool - what do you think?
Forgive me, I'm not terribly tech-savvy.
now could anyone tell me:
i want to use the sensor with the arduino.
will it give me just binary on/off or can i measure the amount of capacitance?
but is there an IC out there that will just output voltage, rather than flipping a switch?
I'd like to be able to paint specific areas of a piece of aluminum so that they cannot send a signal to the sensor if touched...
I've tested it with several kinds of paint, but so far unsuccessfully...
I'm trying to make a led cube activated by touch on any face.

Health Information
Ankle Sprain
What is an ankle sprain?
Most people have twisted an ankle at some point in their life. But if your ankle gets swollen and painful after you twist it, you have most likely sprained it. This means you have stretched and possibly torn the Reference ligaments Opens New Window in your ankle.
Even though Reference ankle sprains Opens New Window Reference Opens New Window are common, they are not always minor injuries. Some people with repeated or severe sprains can develop long-term joint pain and weakness. Treating a sprained ankle can help prevent ongoing ankle problems.
What causes ankle sprains?
Most Reference types of ankle sprains Opens New Window Reference Opens New Window happen when you make a rapid shifting movement with your foot planted, such as when you play soccer or get tackled in football. Often the ankle rolls outward and the foot turns inward. This causes the ligaments on the outside of the ankle to stretch and tear. Less often, the ankle rolls inward and the foot turns outward. This damages the ligaments on the inside of the ankle.
An ankle sprain can range from mild to severe, depending on how badly the ligament is damaged and how many ligaments are injured. With a mild sprain, the ankle may be tender, swollen, and stiff. But it usually feels stable, and you can walk with little pain. A more serious sprain might include bruising and tenderness around the ankle, and walking is painful. In a severe ankle sprain, the ankle is unstable and may feel "wobbly." You can't walk, because the ankle gives out and may be very painful.
What are the symptoms?
With most sprains, you feel pain right away at the site of the tear. Often the ankle starts to Reference swell immediately and may bruise Opens New Window Reference Opens New Window. The ankle area is usually tender to touch, and it hurts to move it.
In more severe sprains, you may hear and/or feel something tear, along with a pop or snap. You will probably have extreme pain at first and will not be able to walk or even put weight on your foot. Usually, the more pain and swelling you have, the more severe your ankle sprain is and the longer it will take to heal.
How is an ankle sprain diagnosed?
Your doctor will ask you how the injury occurred and if you have hurt your ankle before. He or she will check your foot and ankle, your lower leg, and even your knee to see if you are hurt anywhere else.
If the sprain is mild, your doctor may not order Reference X-rays Opens New Window. But with more severe sprains, you may need X-rays to rule out a broken bone in the ankle or the foot. It is possible to break a bone in your foot or ankle at the same time as a sprain.
In most cases, doctors order X-rays in children with symptoms of an ankle sprain. This is because it is important to find and treat any damage to the Reference growth plates Opens New Window in bones that support the ankle.
How is it treated?
In many cases you can first use the PRINCE approach to treat your ankle:
- Protection. Use a protective brace, such a brace with a built-in air cushion or another form of ankle support.
- Rest. You may need to use crutches until you can walk without pain.
- Ice. For at least the first 24 to 72 hours or until the swelling goes down, apply an ice pack for 10 to 20 minutes every hour or two during the day. Always keep a thin cloth between the ice and your skin, and press the ice pack firmly against all the curves of the affected area.
- NSAIDs or acetaminophen. NSAIDs (such as Advil and Motrin) are medicines that reduce swelling and pain. Acetaminophen (such as Tylenol) reduces pain.
- Compression. An elastic compression wrap, such as an ACE bandage, will help reduce swelling. You wear it for the first 24 to 36 hours. Compression wraps do not offer protection. So you also need a brace to protect your ankle if you try to put weight on it.
- Elevation. Raise your ankle above the level of your heart for 2 to 3 hours a day if possible. This helps to reduce swelling and bruising.
Proper treatment and rehabilitation (rehab) exercises are very important for ankle sprains. If an ankle sprain does not heal right, the joint may become unstable and may develop Reference chronic pain Opens New Window. This can make your ankle weak and more likely to be reinjured. Before you return to sports and other activities that put stress on your ankle, it's a good idea to wait until you can hop on your ankle with no pain. Taping your ankle or wearing a brace during exercise can help protect your ankle. Wearing hiking boots or other high-top, lace-up shoes for support may also help. But use caution. Don't force your foot into a boot if you feel a lot of pain or discomfort.
If your ankle is still unstable after rehab, or if the ligament damage is severe, your doctor may recommend surgery to repair the torn ligaments.
What kind of rehabilitation program should you follow?
Rehab exercises can begin soon after the injury. You can try to walk or put weight on your foot while using crutches if it doesn't hurt too much. Depending on your pain, you can also begin Reference range-of-motion exercises Opens New Window Reference Opens New Window while you have ice on your ankle. These exercises are easy to do—you just trace the alphabet with your toe. This helps the ankle move in all directions.
Ask your doctor about other rehab. Stretching, strength training, and balance exercises may help the ankle heal totally and may prevent further injury.

Dalllleee~~~! is it because it's PINK? :P XD hurhurhur!
- November 25, 2011 at 12:52 AM
- dale's dreams said...
lol, Now, sweetie, you know that I am partial to pink, but, no!
It was much more than that. It was the execution, the rose petals, it looks like it is from a movie scene!
This is one of the reasons why I like period pieces so much, I can watch them over and over again. I watch for the story the first time, and then over and over again to see the backgrounds, the furniture, the clothing, the table settings... and, then to try to better understand what the story was actually about! ;)
What you did, my dear friend, was to actually capture, realism and fantasy at the same time and make it all look so real. :)
and you don't need to reply. :) - November 25, 2011 at 1:21 PM

La tarta,las cerezas, las pastas navideñas y demás detalles son todos una preciosidad, muchas felicidades por esas maravillosas manos creadoras.

The baseball team appreciates these players and parents and wish them well on their upcoming season,' Midway head coach Jason Fussell expressed.
