Heidi Klum saves son from ocean waves
Heidi Klum's Hawaii beach vacation with family turned frightening on Sunday when her son, Henry, was pulled into a rip current along with two nannies.
As Us Weekly reported, Klum and her bodyguard/boyfriend, Martin Kirsten, immediately raced to save the 7-year-old and the caretakers. Henry is Klum's oldest son; she's also mom to Leni, 8; Johan, 6; and Lou, 3.
"We were pulled into the ocean by a big wave. Like any mother, I was very scared for my child and everyone else in the water," Klum told CNN in a statement. "Thankfully Henry is a strong swimmer and was able to swim back to land and we were able to get everyone out safely."
The 39-year-old supermodel and TV personality, who's currently hosting the latest season of "Project Runway," will appear on "America's Got Talent" as a judge this summer.

About the course
About this training programme Overview The programme will support students to consider the pedagogy of Computer Science, digital literacy and ICT in depth. This part of the course aims to develop subject knowledge and equip student teachers with the skills necessary to become reflective and effective teachers of Computing across the 11-16 age range. In Computer Science, the course will consider the key concepts of languages, machines and computation, data and representation, communication and coordination, abstraction and design plus the wider context of computing. In ICT, the focus will be upon the key concepts of communication, manipulating information, critical evaluation and the impact of technology realised through the key processes of finding information, developing ideas, communicating information and evaluating the use of technology. Vital aspects of digital literacy will include a focus on e-safety. School placements will cover the 11-16 age range, along with a KS5 enhancement.
Entry requirements Essential:
- An undergraduate Honours Degree 2:2 or above, incorporating at least 50% Computing OR a 2:2 degree in another subject where candidates are able to demonstrate sufficient competence in the field of Computing, especially if this is supported by appropriate work based experience. (Candidates who are not able to demonstrate competence to the required standard but can demonstrate an aptitude may be considered for entry subject to successful completion of a subject enhancement course).
- GCSE Grade C or above in English and Mathematics. These can be pending but required before enrolment.
- Mainstream secondary school experience in relevant subject within last 18 months is beneficial but not essential.
Offers will be subject to a successful interview, as well as a Health Check Statement and an Enhanced Disclosure from the Disclosure and Barring Service (formerly the Criminal Records Bureau CRB).

Interviews are with a small panel comprising of the Director of Teaching School, a subject teacher/Head of Department and a representative from Liverpool Hope University. In some instances, a colleague from one of our Strategic Partner schools will attend.
How school placements work
Our school placements can be within any of our Alliance schools be they Strategic Partners or from our wider Alliance. Generally, these are within the Liverpool City Region i.e. Liverpool or the surrounding boroughs. Trainees teach across the age and ability range and will have some opportunity to work with pupils at key stage 5. We operate three placements across two schools within the academic year: home school in terms 1 and 3 with a contrasting away school in term 2. Trainees spend three to four days per week in their placement across the first two terms and are there full time in the final term. The rest of the week is comprised of: one day per week at Liverpool Hope University further developing subject knowledge and pedagogy. In addition, there are 12 Masters days across the academic year which are also delivered at Liverpool Hope University.
School Wide Development sessions form part of the training delivered at St John Bosco. These sessions are delivered by our wide ranging Specialist Leaders of Education (SLEs) who are experts in their field.
As part of the programme, trainees undertake a placement within our network of SEND schools as well as an enrichment week, experiencing other aspects of school life.
Financial support
You could be eligible for either:
- a scholarship of £28,000
- a bursary of £26,000
To qualify for a scholarship you'll need a degree of 2:1 or above in Computing or a related subject. For a bursary you'll need a 2:2 or above in any subject.
You can't claim both a bursary and a scholarship - you can only claim one.

If all were right in the universe, today I'd be putting the final touches on speaking assignments for the 2013 edition of Senior Market Advisor Expo, affectionately, and better, known as SMAX. But all is not right in the universe as evidenced by this belated obituary for my long lost, but not forgotten friend.
Last year, I held out hope and refused to put the final nail in the coffin by writing this column. But, as we slouch toward another oppressively hot August, and with SMAX still unable to fog a mirror, I'm officially, sadly, pulling the plug.
Time of death: 12:21 p.m. Las Vegas time, Aug. 26, 2011.
Oh friend! My friend! You will remain forever young for all of us who graced your exhibit hall and breathed your breezeless, antiseptic air, while learning more about life insurance, annuities and retirement planning.
At the youthful age of 11, not even in your prime or yet to peer into the face of puberty, SMAX, you died much too young. Or, if we measure conferences, not by the Julian calendar of 365 days, but by some other reference, such as dog years, then you lived a full life.
I choose to think of you that way — of a long life fully lived. And, as with any great life there are great memories, many of which I cannot repeat on these pages. For those I can (and my SMAX memories only extend from 2008 to 2011), here goes:
- In 2008, my first SMAX, we survived Tropical Storm Fay together. Held in Orlando, Fay seemed to whip up a weird energy and a strong group dynamic. Too often independent advisors think of themselves as lone wolves, but Fay seemed to pull us together, a shelter from the storm. More than one attendee pulled me aside and said something along the lines of: "I've attended your past expos and really enjoyed them. But, man, I don't know what you did this time. This show is great! It really blows other shows away."
- 2009 found us back in Las Vegas where, frankly, we both belong. Orlando is about Disney and mouse ears. But SMAX? You're Vegas born and bred, baby. In typical Vegas fashion, we had SMAX and industry veteran, Al Atha, step in for an AWOL speaker at the 25th hour. "Big Al" led an improvisational and unrehearsed workshop on prospecting. As Big Al told the class, "If an advisor is doing seminars, he needs to be both a great salesperson and a great speaker. He's not going to reach his potential if he's a lousy public speaker." Wiser words were never uttered at SMAX.
- 2010 I remember more for the Jimmy Buffet bar than most anything else, but it was you who brought me to Vegas. So, there's that, SMAX. There's always that.
- 2011, your swan song. If we'd only known, we could have shared a proper farewell. Speaker Tom Hegna, perhaps tuned in to your early demise told a rapt audience, "Everybody dies but nobody knows when except…life insurance companies."
With the death of the only true peer-to-peer event in the industry, I say goodbye, my friend, goodbye — the industry is not the same without you. It never will be.
SMAX, as grown man to defunct conference, I am not too proud to tell you, I miss you. I really do.

White Never Makes Right: 'The Help' (Blu-ray)
Indeed, horror is what's missing here... horror and a sense of the real world working its way into the isolation of (this small town).
Movies about race usually fall into one of two categories: there is the "white savior saga", a story usually told from the perspective of a Caucasian protagonist who goes on to "save" several minorities while exposing the injustices inherent in the system. It's all high minded and very preachy. Then we have the inappropriately named "magic Negro movie" in which an African American hero, usually endowed with an unusual gift, shows the clueless whites what it's like to be on the other side of the social fence. Think The Green Mile with a more politically proper position and you'll understand.
In either case, the concept of institutionalized bigotry is often tossed aside in these kind of efforts for scripted struggles between insight and inequality, rendering the material (and message) anemic and underdeveloped. The latest example of the shaky subgenre, Dreamworks' The Help (now out on Blu-ray and DVD), attempts to avoid both issues. Instead, it walks a very fine line between powerful and implausible, winding up on the side of a solid, sentimental entertainment.
Eugenia "Skeeter" Phelan (Emma Stone) has just returned from college. It's 1962 and she's desperate to get a job as a writer. At the local Jackson, Mississippi daily, she is given the chance to play advice columnist...on household cleaning. Knowing little on the subject, she decides to ask the maids who work for her friends - specifically, Aibileen Clark (Viola Davis) and Minny Jackson (Octavia Spencer). Both are suspicious, as are their employers, including local bigot and segregation rebel rouser Hilly Holbrook (Bryce Dallas Howard). This dim debutante believes in the separation of the races...and that's that.
Skeeter soon sets her sights on writing a book about the life of African American servants in the '60s South. While her possible New York publisher is intrigued, the local minorities are not interested...that is, until they realize that the times, they are a changing and, perhaps, with this earnest white girl's help, they can finally have their voices heard. It's a revelation that will begin to rewrite Jackson history.
Over long and layered with too many subplots, The Help remains a viable victim of its own nobility. Sure, it's still a well made movie with lots of terrific performances, ample heart, and a theme that needs exploring - the Civil Rights Movement of the '50s and '60s - but it can't but seem superficial in light of its own source. Since this is not a real story, not based on fact or some non-fiction event, we are stuck with the melodramatic contrivances of a writer (who is white) reimagining the era as a series of heroes and villains.
On the side of right is Skeeter, her reluctant servant subjects, and the occasional enlightened members of their otherwise prejudiced community. Since there is no excuse for racism, the other side often comes across like plantation owners just waiting for their chance to be flayed by their insurgent slaves. This means we never understand the rationalization for Hilly's cause, nor do we get a true sense of the stakes at hand.
Of course, this is all hindsight, the 20/20 tenets of a country that came close to splitting in two before finding the footing to (reluctantly) come together. Today, the clashes on display here - separate facilities and entrances for blacks, a sense of white entitlement and proposed 'property' laws - are mostly a thing of the past, and for once The Help understands this. It doesn't strive to sell us on the wounds working their way through Jackson. Instead, we get to witness the obvious dichotomies between the established family unit and the notion that Caucasian parents couldn't be bothered to raise their own kids. While never coming close to suggesting that this set-up lead to the eventual erosion of Jim Crow laws, we can see how those raised by black nannies and maids would come to defend, not deride, them.
Still, we have to have the wicked within the wise, a counterbalance to Stone's stunned realizations and Davis/Spencer's smart-aleck epiphanies. As a bigot, Ms. Howard has her work cut out for her. Luckily, the script avoids epithets to let her racism reside in more institutionalized, insidious ways. It is Hilly's idea to push for a statewide ban on "coloreds" using the indoor bathroom facilities of the homes where they work. It is Hilly who reacts ridiculously when her brainchild is ignored (and eventually countermanded). It is Hilly who gets the broad spectrum speeches, crystallizing the extremist call in clipped, cultured bon mots. We are supposed to see how ingrained her beliefs are, how they reflect a reactionary, instinctual Southern stance. But since she's just one woman, it's hard to see her as a realistic threat.
Indeed, horror is what's missing here...horror and a sense of the real world working its way into the isolation of Jackson. Skeeter's storyline, loaded with a combination of anger, naiveté, and sly self-loathing, keeps getting in the way of Aibileen and Minny's confessions. Even more aggravating is a reliance on a gross out gag to one-up the easily bullied bad guys. From love interests that end up slinking off to the side to insinuations of abuse and other evils that are merely mentioned in a kiss-off voice over, The Help often hinders its own cause. But then, like a smack to the back of the head, the movie makes its point in potent, commanding ways. Stone salvages her character, making the cause more important than the kookiness, while secondary characters stand and are finally recognized.
But it is Davis and Spencer who deliver us from Lifetime Lite. They are authoritative and world weary, capable of carrying this film and dozens like it on their slumped, strong shoulders. When they speak, the entire movie morphs into a quasi-crusade, a rush for recognition for a country that often forgets from where it came. Indeed, the best thing about The Help is how it offers up mostly gentle reminders of America's recent, reprehensible past. It doesn't beat audiences over the head with its examples, it merely lets Davis and Spencer speak. When they do, the pain and suffering is intrinsic in the dialogue, the depth of the issues laid bare in blatant, easy to swallow segments. They may seem antithetical to the kind of movie being made, but in truth, it's the key reason why we tolerate the otherwise saccharine approach. While it's too long and too timid, The Help is still a wonderful, evocative indictment. Instead of falling into formula, it uses familiarity and all its flaws to find its place in our hearts.

Double Cross
Double Cross - v.2.0
Sean J McKiernan (mekire)
arcade 2d pygame puzzle tetris mekire
2 years ago this was my very first Pygame program (and my first big Python project in general). Recently looking back at the code I was even more disgusted than I had anticipated. This is a complete recode of the game.
Unlike your common unilateral falling block games, 'Double Cross' implements a bidirectional paradigm expanding the genre in both dimension and difficulty.
Blocks fall from the top and fly in from the side settling in a joined "play area". Deletions occur when rows of ten blocks are completed. A horizontal row of 10 will cause the blocks to fall down, and a vertical row of 10 will cause the blocks to "fall" to the right. If a vertical row is completed during a vertical drop or a horizontal row is completed during a horizontal drop the corresponding deletion will not occur until the next turn. This can and will lead to non-intuitive results. Focus on the vertical alone and you will die from horizontal negligence and vice versa.
Both full source, as well as windows executables are available (with and without the music files). The main files are called double-cross.pyw and double-cross.exe respectively.
*I do not own the music. Songs are all copyright of their respective owners.
After two years I finally recoded this game (and boy did it need it). Please let me know if you have any difficulties running it. -Mek

Realtors, economists and insurers alike fear the insurance measure before the Florida Legislature could turn potential buyers away.
Legislation that would substantially increase property insurance premiums has raised concerns in the real estate industry that higher costs could slow Southwest Florida's housing recovery.
Realtors, economists and insurers alike fear the insurance measure before the Florida Legislature could prompt thousands of retiring baby boomers who are now boosting home sales statewide to reconsider buying here.
If the real estate industry sputters, it could affect construction jobs, local governments and even merchants' cash registers, said Gary Jackson, an economist with Florida Gulf Coast University.
If passed and signed into law, the proposal will increase premiums by several hundred dollars annually for new customers of Citizens Property Insurance Corp., a state-run carrier that has been growing at a rate of nearly 1,000 new policies a week.
"When people look at a home they're going to buy, they have to look at taxes, insurance and homeowner association fees, and factor all of that into their buying decision," Jackson said. "Certainly, some folks will decide they may want to locate somewhere where the rates are cheaper."
The Florida Senate is prepared for a final vote on the measure. Similar legislation has advanced in the House, with the session closing in on its lat two weeks.
Under the proposal, rates for new Citizens customers would nearly double in some coastal areas. Premiums would rise an estimated 37 percent in Sarasota County — 27 percent in Manatee.
Many worry the increase could translate into fewer home buyers, who already are contending with rising expenses for food, gas and real estate.
"There's a looming problem (with Citizens) we have to deal with," said Rep. Jim Boyd, R-Bradenton, who also owns a local insurance agency. "But any rate increase beyond what is already authorized by law would certainly be harmful to the recovery we're enjoying."
Fueled by boomers from Iowa, New York, Michigan and elsewhere, Southwest Florida home sales have risen to their highest level since 2005.
As home supplies have shrunk with little new building, prices have appreciated — by $17,000 over the year to a median of $184,500 in Sarasota, Realtor data shows.
At the same time, new home starts in the first quarter rose 74 percent over the year in Sarasota and 36 percent in Manatee — the busiest three months for residential construction since 2007, permit records show.
The housing upswing also has helped revive the region's overall economy, because the building industry represents one of the area's largest employment sectors and one that shed more than half its workforce during the downturn.
But if the climbing cost of home insurance prompts buyers to turn to retirement destinations like North Carolina or Arizona, industry participants say local housing sales will falter.
"There is some sticker shock to the cost of insurance here," said Peter Crowley, broker and co-owner of the Re/Max Alliance Group, with branches in Sarasota and Manatee. "This likely will have a negative impact on the market. But that said, there's enough demand right now. The folks that can afford it will absorb these increases."
Most real estate brokers believe the biggest impact will be felt among buyers seeking out condos or older homes in need of repairs, because they are more expensive to insure.
They contend the Citizens proposal would have only a marginal effect on baby boomers, who are routinely shelling out cash for houses priced at $300,000 and above. For them, $200 to $400 per year in additional costs will not be enough to derail retirement plans, said Lakewood Ranch-based homebuilder Pat Neal.
Prices and record-low interest rates, combined with relative affordability, will offset higher insurance premiums, Neal said.
"Insurance is just not a very big part of their purchase," he said. "Property insurance is much more expensive in Florida than it is in Iowa, but there's a reason for that, and buyers know it. There are no hurricanes in Iowa."
There are about 90,000 active Citizens policies in Sarasota and Manatee counties, which combine for $153 million in premiums and a total exposure of nearly $33 billion, according to recent Citizens figures.
The 1.3 million Citizens policyholders statewide now pay an average of $2,250 per year for Florida property insurance.
But with more than $400 billion in total exposure statewide, many lawmakers believe those premiums would not be enough if a major storm were to strike the Sunshine State — leaving insurance customers statewide on the hook for the shortfall.
Any housing market hiccup would be a small price to pay for bringing stability to the insurance industry, said Don Brown, an insurance agent from DeFuniak Springs, a former Florida legislator and lobbyist for private insurers.
"We have risk stacked on top of risk, and this could cascade into a man-made economic disaster," Brown said. "I don't think we should sell our soul just to marginally improve the housing recovery."
Recent storms in the Northeast that are expected to similarly raise rates in states like New Jersey and New York have given out-of-state buyers a better sense of what to expect, said Maureen Horn, a Realtor with Michael Saunders & Co. on South Longboat Key.
"The insurance issues are not as bad as after the storms in 2005, or even three years ago," Horn said. "We just haven't heard buyers voice many concerns."

Get the Feds Out of Infrastructure
The federal government's budget deficits are pushing the nation toward a fiscal meltdown, yet our leaders can't seem to curb their zeal for infrastructure spending. President Obama has been pushing a $50 billion package for infrastructure and will likely include a similar plan in his upcoming budget. For their part, most Republicans eagerly pursue all the spending they can get for road, rail, airport, and dam projects in their districts.

The Creating Sanitation Markets or Alternative Pro-poor Sanitation Solutions (APSS) in Peru Initiative has reached a new milestone, allocating over US$150,000 in credit towards improved sanitation for people otherwise ineligible for commercial loans.
A recent Water and Sanitation Program (WSP) market research poll discovered many potential sanitation customers in Peru are ineligible for a sanitation credit since their income is above the limit to receive support from governmental programs, but below the expected salary to be eligible for a commercial loan (US$50 to US$170 per month). Recognizing the growing demand for sanitation products among these customers, small local businesses affiliated with the Initiative, such as hardware stores, have begun accepting payment in installments. This allows people who do not qualify for a loan, or who feel more confident dealing with their local storekeeper, to have a viable opportunity to invest in a new bathroom for their homes.
The local business owners assume the risk for the loan, which is provided to customers who have a working relationship with the business owner. Typically the loans do not bear interest or additional charges.
APSS is a public-private alliance headed by the Peruvian Government through the Vice Ministry of Construction and Sanitation of Peru (VMCS), Lima's public water utility (SEDAPAL), the National Direction of Environmental Health (DIGESA) of the Ministry of Health, the World Bank, the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC), the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), the Americas Fund (FONDAM), the Ensemble Foundation and the Water and Sanitation Program (WSP) administrated by the World Bank (WSP). APSS is implementing in five pilot zones of Peru. These localities are representative of the diverse cultural, geographical and social conditions of the country: the urban marginal areas, rural areas, small towns; the coast, the highlands and the jungle regions.
Read a 2008 background paper on the APSS "Building inclusive sanitation markets for the poor" by Malva Rosa Baskovich.

I think I have run across some code that involved calculating when you get close to the stall rate of a motor. Don't ask me how to do it, but I have seen it somewhere in these forums, and it seems that it wouldn't involve any further purchases.
For now I'm going with a small electromagnet as end effector.

Paper clips, wow, I would think Lego blocks might be a lot easier. Or even eggs.

Flat-oval duct helps give Canadian school's air quality an 'A'
If school comfort could be graded, then the classrooms at K.B. Woodward Elementary school in Surrey, British Columbia's school district would receive an "A" for improved indoor air quality.
New vertical unit ventilator systems installed in the classrooms with flat-oval ducted distribution systems provide heating and cooling in the 60-year-old school.
Each classroom has its own dedicated vertical unit ventilator that can provide up to 100 percent outdoor air directly into the classroom. The units deliver constant air quality, occupant comfort and humidity control. The filtration efficiency exceeds a minimum efficiency reporting value of eight as recommended by American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air-Conditioning Engineers standard 52.2 and in keeping with the school board's desire for improved air quality.
Each classroom operates independently using demand-controlled ventilation. This type of control system uses carbon dioxide sensors. It is a combination of two technologies: CO2 sensors that monitor levels in the air inside the classroom, and a unit ventilator that uses data from the sensors to regulate the amount of ventilation air admitted. The carbon dioxide sensors continually monitor the air in the classroom and quickly adjust the fresh air to ensure adequate air quality.
In addition, the engineer required that the classroom noise level be kept low as not to interfere with the students' hearing. He called for K-FLEX closed-cell gray insulation. The non-fiber liner resists mold growth and is Greenguard Institute certified.
The 1-inch-thick material created some challenges for Crosstown Metal Industries Ltd., said Pat Barlee, the project's manager. Barlee said that he has done several schools using the K-Flex insulation attached inside the flat-oval duct and has come up with a creative way of attaching the insulation.
"Also in these renovations of older schools with low headroom, being able to use flat-oval duct allows for the finished installation to blend in with this ceiling area," he said.

This week, I whipped up the world's largest batch of buttercream and partnered up with the wonderful people at Hobbycraft to have a go using their incredible range from Sugar and Crumbs.
Sugar and Crumbs, supply a fabulous range of baking accessories, but they are especially well known for their Natural Flavoured Icing Sugars. Their flavours range from Raspberry Ripple, Chocolate Orange, Strawberry Milkshake and Jaffa Twist to name just a few.
If you follow my Instagram Page you will know that I made Minty an Aurora birthday cake flavoured with their Raspberry Ripple Icing Sugar last year which was a huge hit.
I had a rather significant birthday last week and I wanted to make myself a bright, Spring themed cake, so I was beyond excited to get a chance to try the Sugar and Crumbs range of Russian Tip Nifty Nozzles. Cakes decorated with these mind blowing tips are all over Instagram and Pinterest at the moment.
Aren't they amazing looking! With these nozzles and a lot of buttercream you can create beautiful cakes really very easily.
I am going to share a few tips with you, to help you use these nozzles and then give you an opportunity to win a couple of your own along with a pack of Sugar and Crumbs, Pink Lemonade Icing Sugar. Obviously I will give you a peek at my birthday cake as well.
Things you might need:
Sugar and Crumbs – Russian Tip Nifty Nozzles
Sugar and Crumbs – Icing Sugar
Food Colouring – I use Wilton Colour Gel because they don't make the buttercream runny.
Cling Film (optional)
Tips for using the Russian Nifty Nozzle:
- When mixing your buttercream, use an electric mixer and mix until you can get it as white as possible. If the buttercream is too yellow it will interfere with the food colouring and blues will come out green etc…
- One of the first things you will notice about these nozzles is that they are huge, much bigger than the nozzles you may be used to using and they have a flat end. Therefore you will need a much larger hole at the end of your piping bag.
- When piping with Russian Tips you want to hold the flat part of the tip against the cake with the piping bag pointing straight up. This will ensure the petals form evenly.
- If like me you want to use real butter for your buttercream you will need to add a touch of milk to ensure the buttercream is creamy enough. If it is too creamy the flower will collapse and loose definition and if it is too hard it will be difficult to pipe and may not stick to the cake.
- A small leaf between the flowers will fill in spaces and make the finished cake look more complete. This 67 leaf tip from Wilton is perfect.
- Practice, practice, practice… some flowers can be piped quite tall, some can't. It is definitely worth having a practice run before you go straight to the cake.
Here are the four tips I used on my cake.
These flowers look fabulous with a touch of colour running through the middle of the buttercream. It is really easy to achieve this by spreading one colour of buttercream across some cling film and then adding a thin line of a different colour buttercream to the middle. Roll the buttercream up in the cling film and snip off the end.
The cling film sausage can then be inserted into the nozzle and you can pipe lovely two tone flowers. I used this technique on my birthday cake. I piped onto an ombre pink buttercream made from the Sugar and Crumbs Pink Lemonade Icing Sugar, which I decorated with edible gold leaf and gold balls.
Now for the bit you have been waiting for!!!!!!
How to win two of these beautiful Russian Tip Nozzles – Spring Tulip and Posy and a bag of Pink Lemonade Flavoured Icing Sugar!

I think that everyone has "those" foods that are areas of temptation, or weakness, or just plain old habit. Most people list things like sugar (cough, cough… chocolate) or salt. But a lot of people also have drinks as an issue… Route 44 Dr. Pepper is one I hear a lot, mocha frap from Starbucks, etc. For me… it's milk. Good, fatty, whole milk. Back when I used to work out I would have a glass after a good run when most people would drink water. My best friend used to tease me about coming over and having a glad of milk and a handful of Hot Tamales candies. In fact, her mom kept them stocked with both for when I would come over… which was often.
So, when I made my covenant, I knew that milk would have to go as well. Even though I could have dairy… milk was just… well, almost a dessert to me. Certainly a treat, and definitely an avoidance to drinking water. (I know it's weird, but water has never really been that "awesome" to me… maybe cause I was always drinking milk instead!)
Well, the other day I was in a bit of a daze as I was making my coffee (which is not entirely that odd seeing as how I am half-asleep when I make my coffee most mornings), and I poured whole milk into the mix instead of the almond milk that I have in my coffee every other morning. Once I realized it, I wasn't going to pour out that precious milk (two young boys in the house… we go through a lot of milk) or the even more precious… coffee (two young boys in the house… need I say more?). So I drank the coffee with whole milk in it. No biggie.
It was actually kind of gross.
I mean… in comparison to my coffee with almond milk, which has like… flavor. It was kind of cool though how this life of sacrifice is actually better than my normal life. Again like I mentioned yesterday, I would have missed out on a lot of things, both spiritual and "earthly" if I had not done this covenant.
And honestly, I'm not sure of a scripture to put with this one (comment below if one comes to your mind). It just makes me think of how we just don't see… the whole picture. And by that I mean, there I was for years thinking that whole milk was kind of the end all be all for drinking in coffee. But… it wasn't. There was something better out there.
And I think that is what this covenant has shown me… there is so much about this world that I haven't discovered, and might not ever discover… without God showing me. But it took me committing to Him, allowing Him to break down this wall inside of me… in order for me to see that the grass IS indeed greener on the other side if HE is the one that takes you there.
It just makes me want to covenant with Him about… everything! So that He can show me how lame my "whole milk life" is (that I thought was oh-so great)… and reveal to me how amazing an "almond milk" kind of life can be (which I don't even know exists)!

(I'm not sure in which section I could post this thread)
Dear all,
I'm currently doing a survey on UML class diagrams. The survey is about how to simplify a class diagram by leaving out information that is not important. The motivation behind this survey is to understand a system (after the implementation phase) by using reverse engineered class diagrams. As we know, reverse engineered class diagrams are typically a detailed representation of the underlying source code, which makes it sometimes hard for the software engineer to understand what the key elements in the software structure are. Hence, we make this survey in order for us to identify what type of class and information that should be left out from the reverse engineered class diagram. You can find the survey at the following URL :
Feel free to ask any questions or give any comment on this survey. Your cooperation is highly appreciated. Thank you.

It appears that Charlie Sheen's trademark catchphrases are being trademarked by...other people.
Over the past few weeks as the former "Two and Half Men" star has taken to radio, TV and social media to entertain, attack and school his friends and foes alike about what life's like when you're on a drug that is yourself, intrepid marketers and opportunistic entrepreneurs have started going to the U.S. Trademark Office to lay legal claim to his utterances, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
A slew of T-shirts have appeared in recent weeks sporting perhaps the most popular Sheen-ism: "winning." "Winning!," "Uh Winning," and "Bi Winning" are the phrases on the shirts that people have attempted to trademark.
U.S. & World
News from around the country and around the globe
A video website tracking Sheen's movements registered "Tiger Blood TV", and another company claimed "Adonis DNA" for a series of health and nutritional supplements.
But Sheen, who is about to embark on the rapidly expanding "Violent Torpedo of Truth/Defeat Is Not an Option" tour, plans to sell his own merchandise via concert promoter Live Nation, which could lead to legal action against the trolls trying to capitalize off his fame.

Tuesday night, I used my Jornada to scan for wireless networks on the way home.
The hospital's not even 3 miles from our apartment, so you can imagine my surprise to find more than 300 wireless networks along the way.
I took the day off yesterday, as it'd been my wife's third day in the hospital. I was pretty sure they'd discharge her, too. I wanted to be there with her, and not leave her hanging for hours waiting for me to come pick her up if she was released.
While there, I saw the parking lot "courtesy car" - a driver will take you out to your car if you're disabled, lazy, or parked in the bowels of hell. This is a slow, 100% electric car. Too bad that means that aside from Wolf Creek and Callaway (which I once photographed from afar on a road trip) the biggest power plants in the region are all coal-burning. For all intents and purposes, this is a coal-powered car plagued by the combined inefficiencies in power generation, transport, conversion to-and-from direct current, heat losses during battery recharging and probably some other fun stuff I'm forgetting. Go Green!
Playing with Fennec (Mozilla browser for mobile platforms) on my Mac while enjoying the remaining afternoon after bringing my wife home. Does anyone want a 32-hole Tiagra rear hub (shown below) without many miles on it? I'll sell it cheap!
Always on the lookout for irony, the below showed up in my google reader last night. It's a link to a (not work-safe language) video from The Onion (a satire site) about the latest Sony device that doesn't work. The fun begins when Google places a Sony ad at the bottom of the story.
This morning? Cold and rainy. As you may know, Rain and temperatures below 50 are pretty much the only weather I really hate riding in, but I do it anyway. One more day, and I'm off until next Tuesday! The weather doesn't look too promising this weekend, though.

Forgive me if it is private but I have noticed that your wife is in the hospital a lot and I've never read why?
Is that something you can share?

She smoked for a very long time and has heart and lung problems because of that. Even though she quit almost a year ago, her health has been going downhill.
I'll just leave it at "a lot of bizarre medical problems" because the docs have still been unable to pin her symptoms down to a specific illness.

Sorry about your wife's illness. I will remember to pray for her.
Yes, I road this morning and it was not particularly "fun" (especially after last night's great weather). Some morning I'll have to get up "early" and meet you for the ride in.

And in an even more bizarre fit of irony, an ad is showing at the bottom of this post about making your own electric (ahem, coal-powered) cars. Awesome.

Ray, My roadie is out of commission for the time being, so I've been wimping out and taking the bus both ways. I have a line on a good friend who can build a new rear wheel up for me, so maybe I'll be back on the road doing the whole trip a little more often in a few weeks.

Thanks for the prayers, I started my own blog today, it lists the medical issues I have endured. I know I been in and out of the hospital A LOT, and I'm so frustrated at the system! Here's my blog http://sdunker-thisismeorisit.blogspot.com/

I hope your wife is doing OK.
I wanted to comment on the electric car. While I agree that the green factor of the electric car is largely diminished by coal-burning power plants, they may have an electric car just so they don't have to mess with gas. Green or not, plugging that thing in is probably a lot less of a hassle than trying to get gas to the vehicle. They may not have a "green" agenda at all.
- February 13, 2009 11:46 AM
- Noah said...
I just like to laugh at the whole "green" thing. :P
You're right. From a logistics standpoint, yes, this car thingy makes a lot of sense. It really is just a fancy-looking golf cart that can go quite a bit faster than the ones at the course. As we know, electric golf carts are used frequently for utility purposes just like this.

With the Cannes Film Festival officially kicking off today, there is plenty of big, bold movie marketing to be found. For those of you who couldn't make it to France (including me), we thought we'd bring you some of the sights. Our international correspondent Magdalena (who you can follow on twitter) has been busy snapping some shots of promotional material at the festival. We already brought you the first iteration here, but now we have some more goodies to check out. They include shots of Spring Breakers, Dracula 3D, Brian De Palma's Passion and Olympus Has Fallen starring Gerard Butler. Hit the jump to check them out.
First up is the crowd-pleaser, Spring Breakers. If you haven't seen our numerous posts of images of Vanessa Hudgens, Selena Gomez and James Franco from the set, this poster should give you a general idea of what you can expect from director Harmony Korine's latest project (I particularly like the unrelated PMS van in the foreground:
Next we have De Palma's Passion, starring Noomi Rapace and Rachel McAdams. We previously posted the first image from the film along with a disturbing batch of follow-up images. Enjoy the poster for Passion below the synopsis:
An erotic thriller in the tradition of "Dressed To Kill" and "Basic Instinct", Brian de Palma's PASSION tells the story of a deadly power struggle between two women in the dog-eat-dog world of international business. Christine possesses the natural elegance and casual ease associated with one who has a healthy relationship with money and power. Innocent, lovely and easily exploited, her admiring protégé Isabelle is full of cutting-edge ideas that Christine has no qualms about stealing. They're on the same team, after all… Christine takes pleasure in exercising control over the younger woman, leading her one step at a time ever deeper into a game of seduction and manipulation, dominance and humiliation. But when Isabelle falls into bed with one of Christine's lovers, war breaks out. On the night of the murder, Isabelle is at the ballet, while Christine receives an invitation to seduction. From whom? Christine loves surprises. Naked she goes to meet the mystery lover waiting in her bedroom…
Next up is a curiously titled White House Taken, otherwise known stateside as Olympus Has Fallen. One of the two "Die Hard in the White House" projects of the year, Olympus Has Fallen is directed by Antoine Fuqua and stars Gerard Butler. This poster exponentially confuses the two since the Roland Emmerich-directed picture is titled, White House Down. Take a look at the Cannes poster below:
Finally, here's a poster from the Dario Argento-directed Dracula 3D, starring Asia Argento and Rutger Hauer, the first images of which we posted last year. Check out the poster below:

I'm trying to obtain information to make an informed election decision.
Does anyone know if a bond was floated for Thomas Stewart Park construction?
If so, there may be misleading information stating the funding resulted in no new tax increase.
(This may also mean no increase for this year).
Also, there are rumors that a zipline is planned for the Park. Again can anyone verify this?
If so, there are attorneys lining up to litigate against the serious mishaps that will almost certainly occur;
this would be almost certainly bankrupt our Township.
Thank you in advance.

We are having some discussions about partitioning some application tables in SQL Server 2008 based on their quickly growing size. One is an event table that is typically used for INSERTS (80% of the queries) or SELECTS that look for the primary key of the table (20% of the queries). The other table is a "mapping" table that is all SELECTS looking up the primary key.
Would partitions along the primary key be helpful here? I've done a lot of reading and all the classic examples of partitioning seem to be data warehouse tables that are partitioned on dates. It also seems that partitioning can sometimes cause more harm than good.
What do you think about these tables?
