Braised Pork Chops with Homemade Curry and Chutney Sauce
From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...I grew up as "Big" Mary in a two Mary household. "Little" Mary - all five feet of her - was my mother. If you phoned the house you'd have to specify which of us you wanted to talk with. I hated it. When our daughters arrived I was determined to spare them such ignominy. Oh, they have pet names but those are sealed within the bosom of the family. That's fine, except when you need to know which child I'm speaking of. So, for today, I'll be referring to my first born as "Number One Daughter." When we get together and family updates are complete it's time to talk food. You need to know that Number One Daughter is fearless in the kitchen and she does know what she's doing. If that meat on your plate looks like boar chances are it is. Get the drift? This year she set me onto Nancie McDermott's The Curry Book - Memorable Flavors and Irresistibly Simple Recipes from Around the World. As a rule of thumb, I won't buy a cookbook until I've found and tested at least two recipes, but Number One Daughter's recommendation was all I needed to place an order for the book. I was surprised by the simplicity of the recipes and the depth of flavor that could be produced with so few ingredients. I know it's not necessary to make your own chutney - Major Gray's would do nicely - but it's fun to know how its done. You can use any curry powder you like, but I've included a recipe that will allow you to make your own for the same reason. So, today we'll have a three-fer.
Braised Pork Chops with Curried Chutney Sauce...from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
4 (1-1/4-inch thick) center cut pork chops (brined if possible)
1 tablespoon butter
1tablespoon vegetable oil
2 tablespoon finely chopped shallots or scallions
2 teaspoons curry powder
1/4 cup Madeira, Marsala or cram sherry wine
3/4 cup chicken broth
3/4 cup light cream or half-and-half
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1/2 cup mango chutney
1/4 cup chopped chives or scallions
1) Combine flour, salt and pepper in a shallow bowl. Pat pork chps dry; dredge in flour mixture. Set aside.
2) Heat butter and oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork chops and cook until lightly browned, about 1 minute per side. Remove chops to a platter.
3) Add shallots and curry powder to skillet; cook until shallots are softened and coated with curry powder, about 3 minutes. Add wine and broth, scraping fond from bottom of pan. Bring to a boil.
4) Combine half-and-half and cornstarch in a small bowl. Gradually add to skillet. Dice any large fruit pieces in your chutney. Stir chutney into skillet and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until sauce is golden and slightly thickened, about 3 minutes.
5) Return pork chops to pan; turn to coat both sides with sauce. Cover and simmer, turning once, for a total of 20 minutes, or until done. Transfer to a serving platter, cover with sauce and sprinkle with chives. Yield: 4 servings.
Cook's Note: I always brine pork chops. Ingredients and directions for brine are here. This extra step is well worthwhile. You'll have wonderfully moist pork chops.
Fresh Mango Chutney...from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite
2 large, ripe mangoes
1 large apple
1 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup diced red bell pepper
1/2 cup dark raisins
1/4 cup diced crystallized ginger
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1-1/2 teaspoons mustard seeds
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon salt
1) Peel mangoes and cut into bite-size chunks. Place into a large (3-quart) saucepan. Peel, core and coarsely chop it; add to saucepan along with onion, bell pepper, raisins, ginger, sugar, vinegar, mustard seeds, pepper flakes and salt.
2) Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are tender and liquid thickens into a light syrup, about 30 to 40 minutes. Remove from heat. Cool to room temperature. Refrigerate. Chutney will keep for 3 to 4 weeks in refrigerator. Yield: About 3 cups.
Curry Powder...from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite
3 tablespoons ground coriander
2 tablespoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons freshly ground pepper
2 teaspoons ground cloves
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons ground ginger
2 teaspoons ground cardamom
1 teaspoon ground cayenne
2 tablespoons ground turmeric
Place all ingredients, except turmeric, in a frying pan. Toast spices over medium heat until they darken, release their fragrance and wisps of smoke rise from pan, about 3 minutes. Cool to room temperature. Stir in turmeric. Store tightly covered and away from heat and light. Shelf life is about 3 months. Yield: 1/2 cup.

What a wonderful homemade sauce for the braised pork chops!

Selba, it really is wonderful. This is so easy to do and the flavors so intense that this tiny recipe worked its way into my recipe rotation. I'm really fussy about what goes there.

I shall give the mango chutney a go - something I haven't made before, but had forgotten that I would love to - being a Brit, curry is second nature to me. Actually, I think I am right in saying that Indian food is the number 1 take away in England!

I do buy Major Greys (and a jar is always in the pantry) thanks for the curry recipe -- I may try to make my own -- there is definitely a difference in curry powders -- currently I get one from Penzy's that is really good but I'll try your recipe.
BTW, the pork looks good as well. - April 17, 2009 at 6:46 AM

Mary those pork chops look like they should be on the menu of a fine restaurant. Thank you for the chutney recipe. I have been looking for a good one and I think I definitely found it.. I want a good recipe because it is expensive to buy and it never has been worth the price. Have a great weekend...

I wish I had your restraint! If I see a cookbook with a pretty picture I buy it. I'm hopeless! But I do like to sit around and read them at night and I cook from them all the time so it's not a waste, just a little excessive!

Homemade curry powder. You are amazing, Mary. I'm looking forward to trying this recipe. Love curry and chutney.

Mary, This is so wonderful because everything is reduced to what you can control: no reliance on mass produced products. I like that. I am trying to cook cleaner. Searching for a CSA in our area.

Mango chutney and pork goes really well together. I used to make a very similar but less elaborate recipe. Delicious.
- April 20, 2009 at 1:14 AM
Two things I am always looking for are new roast chicken recipes and new pork chop recipes. I usually brine my chops, so there's no hesitation there. I love the chutney glaze on these - can't wait to try them!

This section describes how to implement native language support in a program or library that is part of the PostgreSQL distribution. Currently, it only applies to C programs.
Adding NLS Support to a Program
Insert this code into the start-up sequence of the program:
#ifdef ENABLE_NLS #include <locale.h> #endif ... #ifdef ENABLE_NLS setlocale(LC_ALL, ""); bindtextdomain("progname
", LOCALEDIR); textdomain("progname
"); #endif
(The progname
can actually be chosen freely.)
Wherever a message that is a candidate for translation is found, a call to gettext()
needs to be inserted. E.g.:
fprintf(stderr, "panic level %d\n", lvl);
would be changed to:
fprintf(stderr, gettext("panic level %d\n"), lvl);
is defined as a no-op if NLS support is not configured.)
This tends to add a lot of clutter. One common shortcut is to use:
#define _(x) gettext(x)
Another solution is feasible if the program does much of its communication through one or a few functions, such as ereport()
in the backend. Then you make this function call gettext
internally on all input strings.
Add a file nls.mk
in the directory with the program sources. This file will be read as a makefile. The following variable assignments need to be made here:
The program name, as provided in the textdomain()
List of provided translations — initially empty.
List of files that contain translatable strings, i.e., those marked with gettext
or an alternative solution. Eventually, this will include nearly all source files of the program. If this list gets too long you can make the first "file" be a +
and the second word be a file that contains one file name per line.
The tools that generate message catalogs for the translators to work on need to know what function calls contain translatable strings. By default, only gettext()
calls are known. If you used _
or other identifiers you need to list them here. If the translatable string is not the first argument, the item needs to be of the form func:2
(for the second argument). If you have a function that supports pluralized messages, the item should look like func:1,2
(identifying the singular and plural message arguments).
The build system will automatically take care of building and installing the message catalogs.
Here are some guidelines for writing messages that are easily translatable.
Do not construct sentences at run-time, like:
printf("Files were %s.\n", flag ? "copied" : "removed");
The word order within the sentence might be different in other languages. Also, even if you remember to call gettext()
on each fragment, the fragments might not translate well separately. It's better to duplicate a little code so that each message to be translated is a coherent whole. Only numbers, file names, and such-like run-time variables should be inserted at run time into a message text.
For similar reasons, this won't work:
printf("copied %d file%s", n, n!=1 ? "s" : "");
because it assumes how the plural is formed. If you figured you could solve it like this:
if (n==1) printf("copied 1 file"); else printf("copied %d files", n):
then be disappointed. Some languages have more than two forms, with some peculiar rules. It's often best to design the message to avoid the issue altogether, for instance like this:
printf("number of copied files: %d", n);
If you really want to construct a properly pluralized message, there is support for this, but it's a bit awkward. When generating a primary or detail error message in ereport()
, you can write something like this:
errmsg_plural("copied %d file", "copied %d files", n, n)
The first argument is the format string appropriate for English singular form, the second is the format string appropriate for English plural form, and the third is the integer control value that determines which plural form to use. Subsequent arguments are formatted per the format string as usual. (Normally, the pluralization control value will also be one of the values to be formatted, so it has to be written twice.) In English it only matters whether n
is 1 or not 1, but in other languages there can be many different plural forms. The translator sees the two English forms as a group and has the opportunity to supply multiple substitute strings, with the appropriate one being selected based on the run-time value of n
If you need to pluralize a message that isn't going directly to an errmsg
or errdetail
report, you have to use the underlying function ngettext
. See the gettext documentation.
If you want to communicate something to the translator, such as about how a message is intended to line up with other output, precede the occurrence of the string with a comment that starts with translator
, e.g.:
/* translator: This message is not what it seems to be. */
These comments are copied to the message catalog files so that the translators can see them.
If you see anything in the documentation that is not correct, does not match your experience with the particular feature or requires further clarification, please use this form to report a documentation issue.

The Art of Seating: 200 Years of American Chair Design
The Art of Seating: 200 Years of American Chair Design
Within the American home and workplace, chairs are usually regarded as simple, utilitarian objects that provide seating and a modicum of comfort. This exhibition offers a fascinating historical survey of artistic, technical and engineering developments in American decorative styles. The chair emerges as a complex artistic invention that embodies American ingenuity in design and reflects a variety of socio-cultural, economic and political values.
Organized by the Museum of Contemporary Art Jacksonville, the Art of Seating includes more than 40 distinctive chairs selected from the Jacobsen American Chair Collection. The Figge Art Museum will be the first museum venue to host this significant exhibition on its national touring schedule.
A large portion of the exhibition highlights trends in Victorian design, noted for its eclectic revival modes and lush, intricate ornamentation. Examples include the exotic Oriental Peacock Lady's Reception Chair, c. 1855, and the Gothic Revival Arm Chair, c. 1854-55.
At the turn of the century, the ornate formality of Victorian furniture was replaced by a radical modern sensibility associated with the Viennese Secession and the American Arts and Crafts movement. Rejecting the anonymity and inferior quality of industrial mass production, these trends stressed purity of form and unique handmade methods of fabrication, as seen in the Stickley Brothers Oxbow Arm Chair, c. 1903.
In contrast to the Arts and Crafts movement, modernist 20th-century innovations in chair design were strongly influenced by the industrial machine aesthetic of the Bauhaus. This exhibition includes modernist chairs by such renowned architects and designers as Frank Lloyd Wright, Eero Saarinen, Charles and Ray Eames, Isamu Noguchi and Harry Bertoia. Utilizing streamlined geometric forms to revolutionize chair design, they also sought to enhance the physical comfort of modern American furniture by experimenting with ergonomic engineering principles. A prime example of this progressive development is Wright's 1938 chair for the Johnson Wax Company, which used oval and tubular elements resembling the company building's striking interior columns. During the 1950s, Charles and Ray Eames explored new industrialized materials and methods of construction, and used inventive techniques like molded plywood to create their famed LCW "Potato Chip" Lounge Chair that was hailed as the "Chair of the Century."
Modern chair design reflects a democratizing impulse in post-war American consumer culture, which demanded a new emphasis on casual informality combined with stylistic sophistication and affordable products. In the Postmodern era of the 1970s and 1980s, Frank Gehry's High Stool and Robert Venturi's Sheraton Chair signify a playful rejection of modernism's functionalism and formal austerity.
The chairs in this exhibition will be presented in an historical context through a multimedia display of patent drawings, documented upholstery, period photographs and informative interpretive labels. Hosting The Art of Seating reflects the Figge's mission to showcase unique forms of American craft and culture.
This exhibition will continue through September 4, 2011

Hey you, out there in the cold
Getting lonely, getting old
Can you feel me?
Hey you, standing in the aisles
With itchy feet and fading smiles
Can you feel me?
Hey you, dont help them to bury the light
Dont give in without a fight.
Hey you, out there on your own
Sitting naked by the phone
Would you touch me?
Hey you, with you ear against the wall
Waiting for someone to call out
Would you touch me?
Hey you, would you help me to carry the stone?
Open your heart, Im coming home.
But it was only fantasy.
The wall was too high,
As you can see.
No matter how he tried,
He could not break free.
And the worms ate into his brain.
Hey you, standing in the road
Always doing what youre told,
Can you help me?
Hey you, out there beyond the wall,
Breaking bottles in the hall,
Can you help me?
Hey you, dont tell me theres no hope at all
Together we stand, divided we fall.

So now I'm friends with Angeline. This is automatic friendship, and I have to just accept it and make the best of things.
See, if I objected, then Aunt Carol might divorce Angeline's uncle, sending both of them tumbling into a deep pit of depression for the rest of their lives, and Angeline could wind up feeling so guilty that she would have to go be locked up in an old dirty insane asylum for years and years, and Stinker's puppies could grow up not knowing both their parents --- and I couldn't live with myself for doing something like that to a puppy.

We pour over analytics, conduct ethnographic studies, and interview users in order to understand the demographics, goals, and tasks of the people using our product. We create personas, write scenarios, and list use cases. And so we should; understanding who our users are and what they want to achieve is foundational to our job as designers.
But how deep does our understanding of users actually go? Sure, we know their socio-economic bracket, what industry they work in, and the top few tasks they want to achieve on our website. But are there deeper, more innately personal characteristics at work? Can we figure out what really makes them tick?
For over a century, psychologists have been trying to account for the range of individual differences people exhibit when interacting with new information. At the heart of their research lie cognitive styles—the stable attitudes, preferences, and habitual strategies that determine how an individual processes information. Understanding cognitive styles will help us design better experiences for users.
Analytic vs. Holistic Thinkers
Cognitive style ranges between two extremes: analytic thinking and holistic thinking. To figure out which camp you belong to, try this simple exercise:
Take a pen and draw a rectangle at a 45-degree angle on a sheet of paper. Next (and here's the test), draw a vertical line inside the rectangle.
How did you draw the vertical line? If you aligned it with the edges of the rectangle (for example[illustration1]), there's a good chance you're an analytical thinker characterized by an external frame of reference. If, on the other hand, you drew the line along the north-south axis of the paper rather than the rectangle, then you are more likely to be a holist, inner-directed with independence from your surroundings. Let's look at each in detail.
Analytic thinkers: brick-by-brick craftsmen
Analytic thinkers, dependent on the structure of their environment, function best when rules and expectations are clearly defined. They are likely to find motivation from external sources and thrive at social interaction. Like a skilled craftsmen, analytic perceivers are highly attuned to the details. When researching a subject, for instance, analytics tend to focus on narrow subtopics, following a logical progression from one to the next. As the name suggests, they are skilled at analyzing the component parts, but they fall short in combining the parts into the whole.
Holistic thinkers: big-picture visionaries
Holists, on the other hand, excel at understanding how the big pieces fit together. They're the visionaries with a bird's-eye view. Intrinsically motivated, holists flourish in flexible environments where they are free to pursue their own interests at their own pace. When approaching a topic they immediately set out to comprehend the big picture, giving holists a more balanced view and helping them put situations into context. But holists sometimes have difficulty grasping the distinction between the different elements.
So what?
Analytics and holists approach tasks very differently. When seeking information online, holists are efficient at finding the right answer in a timely manner and with relatively few clicks. Analytics, however, find it difficult to discern relevant information from the irrelevant. A study by Kyung-Sun Kimfound that analytics spend 50% more time, visit almost twice as many pages, and click 50% more links than their holist counterparts searching for the same information.
This may sound gloomy. However, while the performance gap is drastic between analytics and holists who have a low degree of web expertise, the gap virtually disappears amongst analytics and holists who have a greater amount of web experience.
Designing for Cognitive Styles
What do these differences between analytic and holistic thinkers mean for the design of websites and applications? Above all, they should remind us that users are not uniform; there are vast differences between them, and we must design experiences that meet the needs of both types of thinkers.
Design for learnability
For analytics, a bit of web expertise goes a long way. One goal for effective interfaces should be to help analytic novices improve their proficiency. Put techniques in place that can help users learn how your interface actually works. Make your tools discoverable by discretely calling attention with popovers and offering instruction in blank states.
For first-time visitors, Foodily uses small popovers to introduce users to the most important features unique to their website.
The task manager Flow uses a modal window to present first-time users with an overview of how to use the product.
Forms that show help text when the user focuses on an input (such as this example from Wufoo) provide greater context than leaving the user to guess.
Use strong information scent
The fact that analytics click on 50% more links than holists suggests that analytics have trouble distinguishing relevant information and are easily distracted by tangential links. Increasing the amount of information scent present in the linked text can help users better judge the relevancy of the link before actually clicking on it. Jared Spool found that the optimal length of links is between 7 and 12 words that accurately describe the contents of the linked page.
Try to avoid obscure one- or two-word links such as these found on A List Apart.
Longer, descriptive links have much stronger information scent and are less likely to lead users astray.
Design for wayfinding
Presenting a clear picture of the breadth of your website and where the user is currently positioned in that global context is vital for both holists and analytics alike. Holists need help distinguishing one part from another, while analytics need help understanding how the parts make up the whole. In addition, analytics often use the browser's back button or return to the homepage to start over, suggesting that they're prone to becoming disoriented. Providing signposting that clearly indicates the user's current position in the site can help analytics keep their bearings.
Lonely Planet's breadcrumbs and header make the user's current location within the website clear.
TwigKit's faceted navigation component not only indicates how many results match each filter, but also visualizes the distribution with a series of bars, helping users instantly understand the lay of the land.
Amazon's hierarchical navigation makes clear what sub-categories compose the current section and how the current section fits in with the rest of the site.
In Conclusion
Users are not created equal. There are deep divisions between the way people think, from brick-by-brick analytics to big-picture holists. The experiences we design must play to the strengths of each, while at the same time help them overcome their individual weaknesses. In the words of Edward Tufte, "There are some universal cognitive tasks that are deep and profound—indeed, so deep and profound that it is worthwhile to understand them in order to design our displays in accord with those tasks."

Thematische Organisationen der Wikimedia
Was sind Wikimedia Thematische Organisationen? | |
Wikimedia thematic organizations are independent non-profit organizations founded to support and promote the Wikimedia projects within a specified focal area. Like the Wikimedia Foundation, they aim to "empower and engage people around the world to collect and develop educational content under a free license or in the public domain, and to disseminate it effectively and globally". Thematic organizations use a name clearly linking them to Wikimedia and are granted use of Wikimedia trademarks for their work, publicity, and fundraising. Currently, 2 thematic organization exists. Recognition from the Affiliations Committee allows a group to apply for using the Wikimedia trademarks, access to unique grants, and additional affiliate support; however, recognition is not required to do any of the work a typical Wikimedia user group, and groups are encouraged to consider that model if they do not yet meet the requirements of a thematic organization. |
Thematic organizations are incorporated independent non-profits representing the Wikimedia movement and supporting work focused on a specific theme, topic, subject or issue within or across countries and regions.
Warum sollen wir die Anerkennung beantragen? | |
Recognition from the Affiliations Committee allows a group to apply for using the Wikimedia trademarks and to get grants; however, recognition is not required to do any of the work typical user groups do or might do, it is an optional extra step with connected benefits and some requirements. Benefits of becoming a recognized Wikimedia thematic organization includes:
Without recognition, groups may still:
The requirements to set up an officially recognized Wikimedia thematic organization are designed to be help groups meet the movement's expectations for them once they are recognized.
- Wikimedia supportive mission
The mission of the organization must be in line with the mission and vision of the Wikimedia Foundation, as well as the guiding principles of the Wikimedia Foundation and principles of movement affiliates. Regardless of the chosen legal form or incorporation method, the thematic organization must have goals similar to those of the Wikimedia Foundation, and its activities should not stray from them.
- Thematic focus
The thematic organization has a clear cultural, linguistic, or otherwise thematic focus. Thematic organizations need a clearly defined and unique scope. Wikimedia is an international movement, therefore, when setting up a thematic organization questions of language, geographic area of operation, and membership criteria need to be determined. While there can be multiple user groups serving a similar or single focus area, there can only be one thematic organization covering their designated thematic focus area.
- Legal structure
The thematic organization must have a legal structure/corporation that is legally independent from the Wikimedia Foundation. Thematic organizations are meant to give a real-life structure to projects that might arise from contributors or external parties in line with the goals of the Wikimedia Foundation. However, thematic organizations are not meant to operate the Wikimedia projects nor to be legally responsible for the content of the projects. In order to achieve that, it is necessary that the legal structure chosen for the creation of a thematic organization is clearly independent from the Wikimedia Foundation. The organization's governing documents, generally by-laws, must be reviewed and approved by the Affiliations Committee.
- Critical mass of active Wikimedia contributor involvement
The thematic organization must involve at least ten, preferably at least twenty, active contributors to the Wikimedia projects. An active contributor is defined as a members with 300 or more contributions to a Wikimedia project on a registered account that has existed for more than 6 months in good community standing (meaning they are not currently suspended or otherwise prevented from participating). While thematic organizations should welcome the input of people who are not active contributors to the Wikimedia projects, they should not stay too far from the community. The active involvement of contributors to the Wikimedia projects is necessary for a thematic organization to be able to bring real-life initiatives tied to the Wikimedia projects to life. Initial membership should broadly reflect the intended scope, thematic and geographic area of activity and chosen languages of operation of the organization.
- At least two years of activities
Groups must have two years of demonstrable programmatic results prior to applying for thematic organization recognition. Ideally these activities should be done as a recognized Wikimedia user group. These activities, and their results, must be documented on-wiki, ideally on the group's Meta-Wiki page. Wide outreach efforts to encourage participation and involvement in setting up and shaping the organization are necessary. Activities should be a mixture of online and offline activities designed to encourage participation on the Wikimedia projects. The group must be up to date on its activity and financial reports prior to being considered for recognition.
- Capacity, or planned capacity, to meet the future expectations
Something that makes thematic organizations and chapters unique from user groups are the increased expectations. Does your group have the capacity to meet the expectations of thematic organization once you receive recognition? This will be something both the Affiliations Committee and Board of Trustees will consider in reviewing your application. If your group does not have a track record of activities which indicate that you will successfully be able to meet these expectations, that can cause your application to be denied. Consideration will be given for the financial circumstances of the group, realistic demands in your group's focus area, and plans to secure future funding to meet these expectations.
Once you've gathered the group, the wiki page, legal documents, and the big ideas on what you want to do, contact the Affiliations Committee and request to apply for thematic organization recognition. The Affiliations Committee will ask you some questions, review your application, and if appropriate will recommend the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees recognize your group as an official Wikimedia Thematic Organization. The Board of Trustees will then vote to approve or grant recognition based on the application, discussions with the Affiliations Committee, and recommendation from the Affiliations Committee. Recognition automatically renews each year. Recognition can be suspended or removed if necessary if a group becomes inactive or is no longer compliant with their agreement.
Delays during the application approval process most often arise from incomplete applications or applications that need to be modified before they can be approved. To prevent this from happening and help expedite your group's approval process, please double check this list before submitting your application:
- Does your name meet the affiliates naming requirements? Group discussions amongst Wikimedia thematic organizations regarding their name can take time, and generally you want to avoid having to re-engage in that conversation after your application has been submitted. You may contact the Affiliations Committee to seek input on your name before submitting your application.
- Does your group have a clear scope and purpose that is consistently and clearly explained? If your Meta page explains your thematic organization in a way that differs from your application, and if those differ from the activities your group is undertaking – that may delay the application's approval as a clear scope and purpose is required for the resolution to approve the thematic organization and the thematic organization agreement which the two primary contacts will be signing with the Wikimedia Foundation. Your scope and purpose statement should clearly and concisely explain what your group hopes to accomplish and who would be interested in joining. We recognize this may evolve over time, but you should have a clear commitment to a specific statement at the time of your application.
- Are your two primary contacts willing to identify themselves with the Wikimedia Foundation? Sometimes privacy concerns might cause someone to change their minds, which can delay the final steps in the user group recognition process.
- Is your group ready to accept new members and already include at least ten active Wikimedia contributors in good standing? Groups which have a closed or limited membership model may require more discussion and review. Groups which do not have at least ten active members who are also active Wikimedia contributors in good standing will not be approved.

What Are My Retirement Plan Distribution Options?
When it comes to receiving the fruits of your labor — the money accumulated in your employer-sponsored retirement plan — you are faced with a few broad options. Should you take the payout as systematic payments, a lifetime annuity, or a lump sum?
Systematic withdrawals
Some retirement plans may allow you to take systematic withdrawals: either a fixed dollar amount on a regular schedule, a specific percentage of the account value on a regular schedule, or the total value of the account in equal distributions over a specified period of time.
The lifetime annuity option
Your retirement plan may allow you to take payouts as a lifetime annuity, which converts your account balance into guaranteed monthly payments based on your life expectancy. If you live longer than expected, the payments continue anyway.*
There are several advantages associated with this payout method. It helps you avoid the temptation to spend a significant amount of your assets at one time and the pressure to invest a large sum of money that might not last for the rest of your life. Also, there is no large initial tax bill on your entire nest egg; each monthly payment is subject to income tax at your current rate.
If you are married, you may have the option to elect a joint and survivor annuity. This would result in a lower monthly retirement payment than the single annuity option, but your spouse would continue to receive a portion of your retirement income after your death. If you do not elect an annuity with a survivor option, your monthly payments end with your death.
The main disadvantage of the annuity option lies in the potential reduction of spending power over time. Annuity payments are not indexed for inflation. If we experienced a 4% annual inflation rate, the purchasing power of the fixed monthly payment would be halved in 18 years.
Lump-sum distribution
If you elect to take the money from your employer-sponsored retirement plan as a single lump sum, you would receive the entire vested account balance in one payment, which you can invest and use as you see fit. You would retain control of the principal and could use it whenever and however you wish.
Of course, if you choose a lump sum, you will have to pay ordinary income taxes on the total amount of the distribution (except for any after-tax contributions you've made) in one year. A large distribution could easily move you into a higher tax bracket. Another consideration is the 20% withholding rule: Employers issuing a check for a lump-sum distribution are required to withhold 20% toward federal income taxes. Thus, you would receive only 80% of your account balance, not 100%. Distributions taken prior to age 59½ (or in some cases age 55 or 50) may also be subject to a 10% federal income tax penalty.
To avoid some of these problems, you might choose to take a partial lump-sum distribution and roll the balance of the funds directly to an IRA or other qualified retirement plan in order to maintain the tax-deferred status of the funds. An IRA rollover might provide you with more options, not only in how you choose to invest the funds but also in how you access the funds over time.
After you reach age 73 (for individuals who reach age 72 after December 31, 2022), you generally must begin taking required minimum distributions from traditional IRAs and most employer-sponsored retirement plans. If you attained age 72 in 2022 or earlier, you are already required to take annual RMDs. The RMD age will rise to 75 in 2033. These distributions are taxed as ordinary income.
Note: Special rules apply to Roth accounts.
Before you take any action on retirement plan distributions, it would be prudent to consult with a tax professional regarding your particular situation. Choose carefully, because your decision and the consequences will remain with you for life.
*Annuity guarantees are subject to the financial strength and claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company.

Creating a new question
You can add a variety of different types of questions to a category:
Multiple Choice
In response to a question (that may include a image) the respondent chooses from multiple answers. There are two types of multiple choice questions - single answer and multiple answer.
Short Answer
In response to a question (that may include a image), the respondent types a word or phrase. There may several possible correct answers, with different grades. Answers may or may not be sensitive to case.
From the student perspective, a numerical question looks just like a short-answer question. The difference is that numerical answers are allowed to have an accepted error. This allows a continuous range of answers to be set.
In response to a question (that may include a image), the respondent selects from two options: True or False.
A list of sub questions is provided, along with a list of answers. The respondent must "match" the correct answers with each question.
Embedded Answers (Cloze)
These very flexible questions consist of a passage of text (in Moodle format) that has various answers embedded within it, including multiple choice, short answers and numerical answers.
Random Short-Answer Matching
From the student perspective, this looks just like a Matching question. The difference is that the subquestions are drawn randomly from Short Answer questions in the current category.
A Random question in a quiz is replaced by a randomly-chosen question from the category that was set.
This is not a real question. It simply prints some text (and possibly graphics) without requiring an answer. This can be used to provide some information to be used by a following group of questions, for example.
Calculated questions offer a way to create individual numerical questions by the use of wildcards that are substituted with individual values when the quiz is taken.
In response to a question (that may include an image) the respondent writes an answer in essay format.

Here is also few things which you should control before and after installation of demo site.
User registration
Redeal demo uses Customizable header layout. You can enable/disable elements in theme option – Header and menu options (available also in Customizer).
If you want to enable registration, go to Settings – general and enable "Anyone can register"
Then go to Theme option – user option and remove link from "Custom register link". Now, your users can register from LoginRegister button in header. You can also use custom link for user registration page. For example, if you have Buddypress on site, your register link can be /register
Also, if you use Buddypress, but still want to register users from popup, make sure that you enabled Synchronization between login popup and BP in theme option – Buddypress option
If you don't need registration, just remove button from header and disable registration
User Profiles and Buddypress
If you need to have cashback site – you must enable advanced User Profiles which will be place where users can see their basic info, change logo, see their cashbacks. So, you must install free Buddypress plugin. After installation, go to Settings – Buddypress – Components. If you need just Cashback and user profiles, keep active only Extended profiles and Account settings + maybe Notifications and disable all other components
Point system and cashback
If you need cashback or any other Reputation based features like badges, levels, reputation, install Mycred plugin. It's free plugin. If you don't need cashbacks and points on site, go to theme option – Buddypress option – custom message or html in profile of User and remove everything from this field. Or setup it according to your needs, more information can be found in article about cashback settings on our blog. Also delete Cashback Profile page from Pages.
Please, note. Templates on Demo are made for settings with next Point keys
User Submit
Theme has bundled RH frontend PRO plugin which can be used for Deal Submit. You can use any other Form Submit plugin for this purpose, but RH frontend plugin is plugin of our team and it's more Offer/Deal sumbit plugin because it has option for automatic Image/Price parsing (it's not working for any offers, but for near 75% of urls)
If you don't need user submit feature and you used Demo import, go to Theme option – User Option and remove Add and Edit Post submit urls and labels from options. Also remove submit Button from Theme option – Header and menu option
You can investigate User submit Options in our documentation
If you downloaded demo but forgot to enable RH Frontend PRO plugin, you can import Form for Submit Deal from this file Download it and copy content of file, go to RH Frontend PRO – Settings – Data and add content to Import Field. Click on Import

Offending sir delivered questions now new met. Acceptance she interested new boisterous day discretion celebrated.
On the surface, Maya Rudolph and Natasha Lyonne might seem like an unlikely duo. While Rudolph may be best known for Saturday Night Live (and her now recurring role as Vice President Kamala Harris), she has long lived in Los Angeles, where she's raising her family of four with her partner, Paul Thomas Anderson. In recent years, she has taken on memorable supporting roles on cult-favorite shows like Big Mouth and The Good Place. Lyonne, on the other hand, is one of those immutable downtown New Yorkers, the hair and the raspy voice instantly identifiable, and describes her career as playing mostly "quirky best friend" roles until Russian Doll, the critically acclaimed Netflix series, which she co-created and stars in. (A second season is in the works.) But Rudolph and Lyonne have been friends for 20 years. They met in New York, were even roommates for a short stint, and have remained close through various creative collaborations. (Rudolph calls Lyonne "Tashi.") In 2018, they launched a production company together, Animal Pictures. They recently executive-produced Sarah Cooper's comedy special Everything's Fine, currently streaming on Netflix, and are developing several films and series, including Desert People, a dramedy created by Lyonne and Alia Shawkat.
I'm sure there are some creative people out there who love to get it done and get the fuck out, and they're not there to make friends. But I'm there to make friends.
Maya Rudolph
Here, the friends and business partners discuss "shedding the bullshit" of Hollywood and choosing the communities they want to create with.
Maya Rudolph: Do you want to do the honors of going down memory lane? The nice thing is this is a fashion magazine, so we can talk about our first connection being a fashion show. You were like the cool guy who sauntered over to me at Mercer Bar at an SNL after-party and were like, "You want to be in a fashion show?" I think you were with Tara [Subkoff, the Imitation of Christ designer]. Or maybe Chloë [Sevigny], I'm not sure. And you were like, "Great. Tomorrow, Showroom Seven, meet me there." It was like the words that someone says to a kid in a fantasy of when you come to the big city. I remember we had our fitting, and we were so young and lithe, and tried on various cool black gowns, and it was everything. And then we sauntered down Seventh Avenue, and I was like, "This is it, Ma! I've done it!" Little did we know that we weren't models in the show but we were in fact the emcees.
Honestly, when talking about you specifically, in my introduction to you as my first New York friend that I made outside of SNL, the thing I noticed very quickly is, you really did—even at that time, and you were very young—have your own kind of family that you built, which was really your friends, and an enormous sense of community.
Natasha Lyonne: The truth is, of course, that the real reason, at least for me, of this company is I just wanted to spend more time in this life with you in a substantive way. I remember the early days, we were like, "Oh, shit, we really have a reason to talk on the phone every day now." Nothing brings me more joy, in the same way that I'm sure you have with Amy [Poehler] and Tina [Fey] and [Rachel] Dratch, like a Wine Country, or for me it's like getting to do my show, Russian Doll, with Chloë [Sevigny]. It's all these excuses we come up with to find ways to spend time with the people we love the most.

Political crusades for raising the minimum wage are back again. Advocates of minimum wage laws often give themselves credit for being more "compassionate" towards "the poor." But they seldom bother to check what are the actual consequences of such laws.
One of the simplest and most fundamental economic principles is that people tend to buy more when the price is lower and less when the price is higher. Yet advocates of minimum wage laws seem to think that the government can raise the price of labor without reducing the amount of labor that will be hired.
When you turn from economic principles to hard facts, the case against minimum wage laws is even stronger.
Countries with minimum wage laws almost invariably have higher rates of unemployment than countries without minimum wage laws.
Most nations today have minimum wage laws, but they have not always had them. Unemployment rates have been very much lower in places and times when there were no minimum wage laws.
Switzerland is one of the few modern nations without a minimum wage law. In 2003, "The Economist" magazine reported: "Switzerland's unemployment neared a five-year high of 3.9 percent in February." In February of this year, Switzerland's unemployment rate was 3.1 percent. A recent issue of "The Economist" showed Switzerland's unemployment rate as 2.1 percent.
Most Americans today have never seen unemployment rates that low. However, there was a time when there was no federal minimum wage law in the United States. The last time was during the Coolidge administration, when the annual unemployment rate got as low as 1.8 percent. When Hong Kong was a British colony, it had no minimum wage law. In 1991 its unemployment rate was under 2 percent.
As for being "compassionate" toward "the poor," this assumes that there is some enduring class of Americans who are poor in some meaningful sense, and that there is something compassionate about reducing their chances of getting a job.
Most Americans living below the government-set poverty line have a washer and/or a dryer, as well as a computer. More than 80 percent have air conditioning. More than 80 percent also have both a landline and a cell phone. Nearly all have television and a refrigerator. Most Americans living below the official poverty line also own a motor vehicle and have more living space than the average European — not Europeans in poverty, the average European.
Why then are they called "poor"? Because government bureaucrats create the official definition of poverty, and they do so in ways that provide a political rationale for the welfare state — and, not incidentally, for the bureaucrats' own jobs.
Most people in the lower income brackets are not an enduring class. Most working people in the bottom 20 percent in income at a given time do not stay there over time. More of them end up in the top 20 percent than remain behind in the bottom 20 percent.
There is nothing mysterious about the fact that most people start off in entry level jobs that pay much less than they will earn after they get some work experience. But, when minimum wage levels are set without regard to their initial productivity, young people are disproportionately unemployed — priced out of jobs.
In European welfare states where minimum wages, and mandated job benefits to be paid for by employers, are more generous than in the United States, unemployment rates for younger workers are often 20 percent or higher, even when there is no recession.
Unemployed young people lose not only the pay they could have earned but, at least equally important, the work experience that would enable them to earn higher rates of pay later on.
Minorities, like young people, can also be priced out of jobs. In the United States, the last year in which the black unemployment rate was lower than the white unemployment rate — 1930 — was also the last year when there was no federal minimum wage law. Inflation in the 1940s raised the pay of even unskilled workers above the minimum wage set in 1938. Economically, it was the same as if there were no minimum wage law by the late 1940s.
In 1948 the unemployment rate of black 16-year-old and 17-year-old males was 9.4 percent. This was a fraction of what it would become in even the most prosperous years from 1958 on, as the minimum wage was raised repeatedly to keep up with inflation.
Some "compassion" for "the poor"!
