Great location
First time to Boston , the hotel is centrally located so easy to get around from this area . I would definitely recommend this location. You also have access to the YMCA , I'm big into fitness and didn't waste anytime getting to the gym or having
to find a gym. Theres a Starbucks in the lobby for all you caffeine fans :-)
So easy to get around from this location...
No frills, but super location
My wife and I stayed on Friday, Saturday nights for our anniversary weekend. The two major complaints I have are that parking was provided only as valet for $40/night (I parked 2.5 blocks down the street at city of Boston lot for $20/night), and
that there was no complimentary breakfast. The restaurant seemed to have been placed on site only as an afterthought, and never seemed to have any patrons in it. Good things were the location, which is right next to Chinatown/Theatre district and is only ~15 min from center-city, the staff, who were extremely friendly and helpful, and the room itself which was reasonably spacious, with a large bathroom.
Friendliest Staff Ever
The staff at the Doubletree Downtown Boston was fantatstic from the Bell Man, the Concierge, the bar tender, and the food service staff, to the Personnel behind the registration/check in desk. ALL went out of thier way to provide us with
directions, help us with our luggage, hail us a cab, get us water, and whatever else we could have possibly needed. The rooms were clean and roomy, the bed was super comfortable. After the last few experiences I have had with different chains/brands, I will definitely consider choosing Doubletree next time I travel.
There is German Restaurant & Bar called John Wirth's just up the street and around the corner. The food looked fantastic (we didn't eat) and they had an amazing and eclectic selection of beer (two pages!)
Great stay, convenient location
The hotel was in a great spot. We were able to jump on the orange line or green line to get where ever we needed to go. The room was also huge!
A Real Deal
So convenient!! Literally just steps to the subway stop, and only minutes to walk the few blocks to Boston Common. We continued walking through the Public Garden, up Newberry Street and into Copley Plaza. Had lunch and explored the Trinity Church
then went two clocks over to the Prudential and took in the SkyWalk and hopped on the Duck Tour. At the end of a long, hot, and fabulous day we got a cab for $8 back to the hotel. Cool to have Chinatown and the theater district outside our door. We walked around the corner Thursday to have a great dinner at the legendary Jabob Wirth's --- complete with early evening entertainment. The Doubletree staff were the best. Never met a friendlier, more efficient front desk crew. The concierge worked around our tight schedule and booked all our activities in a flash. The delicious and ample breakfast was so professionally served---Hats off to Juan, Shao, and all. The Doubletree satisfied all our travel needs and left a great impression on us all.
Would not recommend
An acceptable stay
We stayed in Boston for one night and found ourselves nicely in the middle of town. It was an easy walk to the T line and everything from there was quick.
The buffet breakfast was a nice surprise.
Take the T to and from the airport for just $2 per person each way. An easy way to save on cab fares and it only took about 30 minutes.
Bois in Boston
The hotel was clean and comfortable and the staff was more than delightful and accommodating. Unknown to us, upon letting the front desk know it was my husband and I's wedding trip we were sent a complimentary bottle of wine and cheese tray on our
first night. We were both really impressed with overall quality and the concierge helpfully recommended an amazing restaurant at the top of Boston (Top of the Hub), to eat at after our marriage. Overall great experience and we would definitely stay there again.

great location
great room for good price comfortable bed all that was missing was a free breakfast.
Double Tree worth the value.
We were greeted right when we arrived by the Valet who was very nice. The bellhop was very professional. The front desk got us our room ahead of normal check in hour. Fresh cookies when we checked in. room was very nice. The free buffet
breakfast was very comforting. We would definitely stay here again.
loved those cookies!

Whistleblower Mark Klein will get some well-deserved acknowledgement when he receives a James Madison Freedom of Information Award next month. The award could hardly find a more deserving recipient — Klein is the former AT&T technician who exposed the extent of the government's warrantless wiretapping program.
In early 2006, Klein came forward with internal documents that show the company cooperated with the NSA's secret program to eavesdrop on internet communications, in violation of federal wiretapping laws and the Fourth Amendment. Klein's evidence demonstrates that in at least one of AT&T's facilities, internet traffic was diverted to a secret, secure room to which only the NSA had access.
In the words of EFF Staff Attorney Kurt Opsahl, Klein is "a true American hero." This public recognition of his bravery in defense of the public's right to know is richly deserved.
During the 2006 election in Florida, electronic voting machines may have "undercounted" to the tune of 18,000 votes in Sarasota County. But because the new machines were not designed to provide paper receipts, there is no way to double check the vote.
Now, Senator Dianne Feinstein of California has taken action. Last week, she asked the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to investigate electronic voting systems that do not provide voter-verified paper ballots. Senator Feinstein specifically highlighted the problems in Florida, and asked for a "top to bottom investigation".
"Should the GAO become aware of any systems that are prone to software malfunctions, are susceptible to fraud, or use hardware design that would lead to voting system problems, I would request that you also inspect those systems," writes Senator Feinstein.
EFF and a coalition of voting integrity groups, representing Sarasota County voters, have filed suit in state court in Tallahassee asking for a re-vote in Florida's 13th congressional district. To find out more about EFF's work defending your right to vote, visit our E-voting page.
Copyright law has long caused headaches for documentary filmmakers. Fair use allows for the use of brief excerpts of copyrighted material, but that doesn't stop some copyright holders from threatening lawsuits and demanding exorbitant licensing fees. Unless they clear every snippet, filmmakers are generally unable to get "errors and omissions" insurance, and, without that, it's basically impossible to get a film distributed and released in the theaters or TV.
To help clarify the principle of fair use, a group of five national filmmakers organizations put together a Statement of Best Practices in Fair Use in 2006. The Statement provides guidance for lawyers, broadcasters and insurers as to what constitutes fair use.
And happily, the Statement has had a dramatic effect. Cable programmer IFC has been guided by the Statement in deciding what documentaries to air, and now insurers are using it to extend coverage for filmmakers. National Union, a major insurer, has recently adjusted its policy to extend coverage for fair use. Filmmakers can now purchase insurance provided an attorney with experience in copyright law is willing to attest that the film falls within the fair use as defined in the Statement.
This is tremendous news for independent filmmakers, who should find it easier to make their art and inform the public without fear of being shut down by legal threats. As Professor Bill McGeveran suggests at the Info/Law blog this could also be "a powerful approach" for other creative communities "to preserv[e] fair use without direct legal action." Let's hope so.
As if suing thousands of music fans isn't bad enough, now the RIAA wants to conscript ISPs into helping them streamline the shakedowns. The major record labels sent a letter to ISPs across the country asking them to trade away customers' rights and make the overzealous file sharing lawsuits more profitable -- and the RIAA even has the audacity to suggest that this is all for your own good.
ISPs currently have no obligation to maintain IP log files, and that's a good thing when it comes to protecting your privacy. Those log files can serve as Internet breadcrumbs -- your ISP and any third party that has access to them can retrace your online activities.
But the RIAA wants ISPs to maintain (and disclose) a customer's IP logs for six months whenever the RIAA says the user may have infringed copyright. In exchange, the record companies will reduce its initial lawsuit settlement demands. Of course, the actual customer would have no say in the matter. The RIAA letter says it wants the information kept because it could "exculpate" the customer, but of course those same records can also implicate the user. Funny, the labels don't mention that.
EFF and others have long warned that copyright claims could become an altar on which personal privacy is sacrificed. Now the RIAA wants your ISP to voluntarily wield the knife, and there's no telling what else the RIAA might ask for once this cut has been made.
The RIAA also wants ISPs to keep customers in the dark about their legal options. Before the RIAA has even verified that the user is correctly identified, it wants ISPs to send along a note saying the user might be sued and can already settle potential claims. At the same time, the RIAA scolds ISPs for giving information to their customers that could help provide sound legal counsel. Instead, the RIAA wants ISPs to direct subscribers solely to the RIAA.
In other words, the RIAA wants it to be harder for customers to find out that settling early might be a bad idea. Does the RIAA readily tell customers that parents are generally not liable for infringements committed by their kids, or that bankruptcy might be a last-ditch option for some, or that the record labels have occasionally sued the wrong people? Doubtful. The RIAA's letter notes that some people have been told that "the RIAA could have been incorrect in identifying your IP address" -- which of course is true -- and "directed the subscriber to certain websites, instead of having him contact the RIAA." We suspect those websites include EFF's resources as well as the Subpoena Defense website.
It's possible that, after the fact, a given user might have preferred a cheaper, earlier settlement, but neither ISPs nor fans should have to make the remarkably perverse choice laid out in the RIAA's "offer." As we've pointed out repeatedly, the record labels could help forge a better way forward to get artists paid without suing fans or further endangering their privacy.
The last time we checked, ISPs don't work for the RIAA, so until the major record labels come to their collective senses, ISPs shouldn't be handmaidens in their misguided lawsuit campaign.

Today, the PC industry needs Hollywood more than Hollywood needs the PC. Most consumers rely on traditional consumer electronics devices to view DVDs and TV content, but companies like Microsoft are betting on the converged digital home and desperately want a bigger piece of the media device market. Because of the DMCA, Microsoft has to get permission to build devices compatible with Hollywood's DRMed content. So when Hollywood demanded that Microsoft lard Vista with restrictions to access high-def DVD and digital cable content, the software giant was in a weak bargaining position.
But as Bruce Schneier explains in a recent editorial (via BoingBoing), Vista's DRM may also be a play to turn the tables and turn Microsoft's platform into a distribution channel on which Hollywood relies:
"[W]hile it may have started as a partnership, in the end Microsoft is going to end up locking the movie companies into selling content in its proprietary formats.
"We saw this trick before; Apple pulled it on the recording industry. First iTunes worked in partnership with the major record labels to distribute content, but soon Warner Music's CEO Edgar Bronfman Jr. found that he wasn't able to dictate a pricing model to Steve Jobs. The same thing will happen here; after Vista is firmly entrenched in the marketplace, Sony's Howard Stringer won't be able to dictate pricing or terms to Bill Gates. This is a war for 21st-century movie distribution and, when the dust settles, Hollywood won't know what hit them....
"Microsoft is reaching for a much bigger prize than Apple: not just Hollywood, but also peripheral hardware vendors. Vista's DRM will require driver developers to comply with all kinds of rules and be certified; otherwise, they won't work. And Microsoft talks about expanding this to independent software vendors as well. It's another war for control of the computer market."
Schneier overstates his case a bit when he says Microsoft could have simply refused Hollywood's demands for DRM and Hollywood would have released today's high-def video content for Vista anyway. But he's right that Microsoft would very much like to lock content vendors into a distribution channel that it controls, including for channels like IPTV and digital downloads. And the more Hollywood depends on Microsoft, the more Microsoft may be able to limit competition from other tech companies' platforms and devices.
This week, Hollywood started to ramp up its lobbying efforts by holding a symposium in D.C. called "The Business of Show Business." During a luncheon speech, Warner Bros Chairman and CEO Barry Meyer took some shots at Consumer Electronics Association President and CEO Gary Shapiro and stated, "history shows that [the major movies studios] are often adapters and embracers of new technologies."
...except for all those times when they've tried to crush innovation instead. In response, CEA has published this open letter [DOC] from Shapiro that makes the real historical record plain: (links, mine)
"In the last few decades, the motion picture industry came late to digital television and actually used every means possible to block new useful technology. Consider:
- the lawsuit seeking to stop the VCR
- the efforts to pass legislation blocking video rentals
- the lawsuit against ReplayTV, a PVR start-up, (the company was bankrupted by the lawsuit)
- the lawsuit against ClearPlay, a company with technology that deleted obscene content
- the lawsuit against Sima, a company which sells editing technology to wedding videographers
- the lawsuit against Kaleidescape, a company that lets consumers send lawfully acquired DVDs around their home
- the lawsuit against Load 'N Go, a company which sold pre-loaded iPods with DVDs, as long as the consumer also bought the DVD.
"The recent legislative efforts to mandate technological changes to stop copying, block the so-called 'analog hole' and impose other 'fixes' on the technology industry certainly make your claim of embracing new technology a bit hollow.
"We both agree that those who profit from the unauthorized, mass redistribution of content do so illegally. And we both agree that the creative community deserves fair compensation for its works, which are enjoyed by so many around the world. Where we apparently disagree is in how to treat ordinary, law-abiding citizens. Consumers should not expect free, but they do expect freedom -- the freedom to enjoy their lawfully acquired content when, where and how they want. That freedom is enabled by today's digital world and should be embraced by the content community."
Read the whole letter here [DOC], as well as Shapiro's speech at CES [PDF].
As an RIAA spokesperson famously put it when asked about the spectacle of file-sharing lawsuits against innocent grandparents, "when you go fishing with a driftnet, sometimes you catch a dolphin."
Well, with its 100,000 DMCA takedown notices aimed at YouTube users, now it's Viacom that is netting its share of dolphins. Among the 100,000 videos targeted for takedowns was a home movie shot in a BBQ joint, a film trailer by a documentarian, and a music video (previously here) about karaoke in Singapore. None of these contained anything owned by Viacom. For its part, Viacom has admitted to "no more than" 60 mistakes, so far. Yet each mistake impacts free speech, both of the author of the video and of the viewing public.
If they are making these kinds of blatant mistakes, who can tell how many fair uses of Viacom content they also targeted in their 100,000 takedowns? Hundreds? Thousands? If Viacom made a clear mistake and your clip contains no content from Viacom-owned copyrighted works, sending a simple DMCA counter-notice to YouTube may be enough to do the job. But if you're attempting to make a fair use of Viacom's works, it may make more sense to go to court to assert your rights. More information about your options is available at the Fair Use Network.
Has your video been removed from YouTube based on a bogus Viacom takedown? If so, contact email@example.com --we may be able to help you directly or help find another lawyer who can. In this situation, as in so many others, EFF will work to make sure that copyright claims don't squelch free speech.
We've put together a video version of this post on YouTube, which you can embed on your website or blog. Check it out, Digg it and spread the word -- the more it rises in YouTube's listings, the more likely it will be seen by users who have received takedowns:

Society as we know it may have been lost, but sex and dancing are still in style in this outrageous post-apocalyptic satire. In a not-so-distant future where a variety of environmental disasters have led to the final collapse of Western civilization, sexually ambiguous hipster Ricky G. (Johnny Simone) leads an encampment of rave kids who have created a makeshift city on the outskirts of Winnipeg. One of the community's leading citizens is porn-merchant and disc jockey Sabu (Jeremie Yuen), whose inexhaustible sexual appetite has led him on a mission to seduce 2,000 men before a looming flood destroys the village. Sabu is close enough to hitting the magic number to have chosen the special man he wants to be Mister 2K -- Happy (Craig Sftanas), an attractive if socially inept science buff who is able to communicate with alien life forms. However, Sabu has a rival for Happy's affections -- body-modification advocate and hair stylist Spanky (Clayton Godson), who tries to foil Sabu's plans by abducting Happy. Hey, Happy! was the first dramatic feature from Canadian independent filmmaker Noam Gonick. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

This season has been a never ending saga of negativeness both on and off the field for the Boston Red Sox. September last year was the worst in baseball history but this may be one of the most disliked Red Sox teams in franchise history from players to the management to the ownership.
It's been a disaster year.
For those not following the Seattle Mariners have a better record then the Boston Red Sox heading into the final month of the season and are 7 games under .500. On the field it's been a bad year and what has gone off the field is not helping the cause.
What seems like a weekly soap opera may have reached it's peak on Monday when only 4 current players showed up to Johnny Pesky's funeral. Besides Ortiz, Buchholz, Padilla and Salty, every player on that team should be embarrassed for not showing up to that funeral. It's not like it was in Denver or they were on the west coast. They were in Boston on an off day and they decided to just not go. The team even provided transportation to and from the ceremony as well.
Even if some players didn't know Pesky it's about being a TEAM and representing the organization by showing respect to his family that day and honor a guy who lived every day of his life for the TEAM as a part of the TEAM. That concept seems to be lost on many players currently in Boston.
Do you think this would have happened with the Patriots or the Yankees? Never. But instead of ownership, Bobby Valentine and the like making sure the majority of players were at there, you have Larry Lucchino going on a radio show covering up saying "they were tired" because they were at Josh Beckett's charity bowling even and they took part in a great ceremony before the game Tuesday night. I'm not making it up it's actually how he tried to spin it.
It's actually an example of one of the main problems being that ownership has enabled these players enough were they've taken on this entitled attitude even though the team has done literally nothing for almost 5 seasons.
It's difficult as a fan to have watched things get so broken so quick and there doesn't look like there's a fix anytime soon.

Next week Dark Horse will debut a new Star Wars series set in the period between A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back, followed in February by the miniseries Star Wars: Dark Times – Fire Carrier and in March by the revival of Star Wars: Legacy. However, the publisher isn't stopping there.
March also sees the release of Star Wars: The Clone Wars — Defenders of the Lost Temple, a digest-sized original graphic novel set during the fourth season of the popular animated series.
Written by Justin Aclin, illustrated by Ben Bates and colored by Michael Atiyeh (and sporting a cover by Mike Hawthorne), Defenders of the Lost Temple centers on a clone trooper who, while contemplating his own worth, begins to realize what sets him apart from his brethren may be a connection to the Force. If the lightsaber-wielding clone trooper on the cover isn't enough of a tease, the solicitation text reinforces it with "A clone trooper with the power of the Force?!"
Dark Horse has provided ROBOT 6 with an exclusive preview, which you can see below. Star Wars: The Clone Wars — Defenders of the Lost Temple goes on sale March 13.

I can't even remember the last time I ate a sloppy joe. I thought I didn't like them. This recipe however was great. My whole family enjoyed it. I only made a few changes. 1) I added a couple of tablespoons of brown sugar 2) I added cooked red kidney beans (1 cup dry before cooking separately). 3) I let it simmer for about 4 hours in a slow cooker once it was fully assembled)flag if inappropriate
Add this to my other two comments...I didn't have a jalpens pepper so even the children enjoyed this recipe. It is worthy of at least three and a half FORKS!,flag if inappropriate
I give this recipe an a-..I added br. Sugar and more t. Sauceflag if inappropriate
It waarea very yummy recipe. A little on the garlic side. I added a half cup of brown sugar and a half cup more t. Sauce.. I give this an a- for a grade!,,flag if inappropriate
The sauce had to be salvaged on so many levels. Made as is, it just tasted like ketchup tomato sauce. I chose it to make this recipe because it looked simple, but it just wasn't flavorful. Agree with previous reviewers-- I rescued the sauce by adding brown sugar, cider vinegar, and extra Worcestershire. I would have added mustard if I had it on hand.flag if inappropriate
This was just okay for us. I did add the mustard and brown sugar as others suggested and it still wasn't all that great. I think I just prefer recipes with molasses.flag if inappropriate
This was just okay for us. I did add the mustard and brown sugar as others suggested and it still wasn't all that great. I think I just prefer recipes with molasses.flag if inappropriate
This is excellent. It's all the necessary ingredients to make a great sloppy joe. I was missing tomato sauce so I substituted tomato juice, it turned out great.flag if inappropriate
This meal was awful the sloppy Joe's tasted sweet. I would not make this meal. Also my three kids did not like the food. I give this dish zero stars!!flag if inappropriate
have made this twice, halfing the recipe with the only excption of using 2 jalapeno's. i used valentino hot sauce instead of the tabasco. With a toased white bun you can't go wrong with this one.flag if inappropriate

PORTLAND, Ore., Oct. 28 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- For World Psoriasis Day, Oct. 29, the National Psoriasis Foundation wants 10,000 Americans to visit its Web site, http://www.psoriasis.org, and sign up to support increased research funding for psoriasis, a noncontagious disease of the immune system that appears on the skin.
During the fifth annual World Psoriasis Day, awareness activities will occur all over the world to help increase understanding, improve access to treatments and build unity among the psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis community.
"Over the past decade, the U.S. federal government has spent less than $1 a day per patient on psoriasis research," said Randy Beranek, president and CEO of the National Psoriasis Foundation. "It's critical we increase investment in a disease that affects 125 million people worldwide. The Foundation is asking Americans to show that psoriasis counts."
In addition to counting names, the Psoriasis Foundation is encouraging its advocates to write their representatives to support Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis Research, Cure, and Care Act (H.R. 1188/S. 1459), aka PPARCCA, the first-ever comprehensive psoriasis legislation.
"This bill is an important piece of legislation that will help people with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis receive the treatment they need," said Beranek. "It also encourages the National Institutes of Health to strengthen biomedical research."
According to the National Institutes of Health, as many as 7.5 million people are affected with psoriasis, a chronic, autoimmune disease that commonly appears on the body as red, scaly lesions that crack and bleed. Ten to 30 percent of people with psoriasis develop psoriatic arthritis, an inflammatory disease which causes pain, stiffness and swelling in and around the joints.
"Many people believe psoriasis is a cosmetic skin condition," Beranek
continued. "Psoria

5) Now we need to copy the boot sector. You should still be in the command prompt window
G:\>cd boot
Run "bootsect /help" for detailed usage instructions.
G:\boot>bootsect /nt60 e:
Target volumes will be updated with BOOTMGR compatible bootcode.
Bootcode was successfully updated on all targeted volumes.
If you get an error message similar to below… you may need to close any open windows with that drive and try again. You could also use the /force switch if you prefer.
Updated NTFS filesystem bootcode. The update may be unreliable since the volume could not be locked during the update: Access is denied.
(This usually happens when the drive is open when trying to transfer boot sector)
6) Now we just need to copy files…

Diskpart Command-Line Utility Syntax and Description
Video of this process:
If you're having trouble viewing the video, Click here to download it.
pls don't use the diskpart it false my pendrive was lost by this one
great man
True Story: don't use diskpart and then remove the "pendrive" halfway through.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with the diskpart instructions on this page. Sounds like you pulled the drive in the middle of writing the partition table :P
nothing wrong with the diskpart instructions this is how to Do IT
Thanks man. Helped recollect those commands
Actually, there is something quite wrong with these instructions.
It appears that the author didn't include the instructions to assign a drive letter to the drive.
DISKPART>ASSIGN <- This assigns the next drive letter to the drive
Type "assign" after formatting so that the disk can be recognized by windows. For those of you who have followed all of these steps and believe your usb drive to now be broken, you can simply re-follow all of the steps above, but this time, include the "assign" command.
Diskpart will still recognize the USB drive, even though your OS may not.
U only forgot to assign partition :)
It is true that the instructions are not only missing the drive letter assignment but not all systems seem to react the same at all. Some drives do not allow the format of ntsf within the diskpart procedure. I am getting every step perfectly and the error when using the format ntsf command is "file system is not compatible". If these instructions are correct, then somneone should be clear about what to do when these errors occur. I actually see many other errors but there is no good resource to document all of the error messages many people have had. I would say the best thing to do is spend the money and get a USB optical drive. This process is not stable or consistent and only works for some of the people some of the time.
remember to
list disk
select disk ? (the usb letter)
create partition primary
select partition 1
format fs=ntfs
now you need to go to
type cmd
then right click on cmd and select run as admin
now do the second part
(type in your CD drive letter or in my case i mounted the ISO file and made the computer think it was a disk) g: (enter)
It will then show like this or not G your disk drive letter then type ( cd boot Run )
G:\>cd boot Run
G:boot\bootsect /nt60 e:(the e: is your USB letter with a : )
Then it will say successfully updated NTFS filesystem boot code
and so on.
now copy the files from you install disk to the usb and update your BIOS to boot usb first
Diskpart works perfectly. You've obviously done something wrong whilst using it. Don't deter other people from using a functional solution just because you had a bad experience with it.
2Ok. I've gotta add that some people are complaining WINDOWS 8.1 WONT install from a NTFS formatted drive so I would recommend to type "format fs=fat32 quick" plus making it a QUICK format because if you have a 32-64GB drive then the format fs=ntfs command instructed here will take forever. So, the whole thing would look like this:diskpartlist diskselect disk n (drive letter)cleancreate partition primaryformat fs=fat32 quickactiveassignexit
nice post I have seen useful content after long time specifically for usb drives like http://www.promotionaldrives.com
Yes working with usb drives like http://www.promotionaldrives.com/products/wafer-usb-card"> wafer usb cards helps a lo
I try to copy the boot sector ( for me it is J:\ ) but when i give the command cd boot then it say's .. system cannot find the path specified ...can anyone tell me something more about this ?

A first blog: presenting the case for simpler Java EE samples ...
OK. Here is a poll. How many developers feel that it is very easy to try simple examples out with a Java EE implementation like GlassFish? One caveat is that you must be "absolutely not familiar" with the technology. For example, how easy is it to try out a servlet sample that updates a database using a resource?
In my view, it is not as easy as I'd have liked, at least with GlassFish. There is a huge room for improvement. I am sure that's true with any application server vendor. And that, in part, is a reason for developers taking time to learn Java EE. The setup time is rather too much.
Last night, I was just trying to deploy an application like jdbc-simple.ear that shows how a servlet can greet a visitor and shows a record of how many visitors have already been greeted. Simple, huh? Here is what I ran into:
- I had the servlet with a resource reference. But the resource was not created just by deploying the application. I was under the impression that I have to just do asadmin deploy jdbc-simple.ear and I am done. No, you've got to create the resources.
- OK, perform a step like creation of resources, creation of jdbc connection pool and so on.
- Remember to start the database! Even when the vendors come integrated with database, you've got to remember to start the database server.
- You still have to create the schema for the database. For example, it asked me to create a table called DERBYPUBLIC with a specific schema. Whew, what a mess. I have to connect to the Database, use the Runtime tab of NetBeans IDE, create the schema. But wait a minute, I don't know the schema! I don't know what column names are, datatypes are and so on.
May I just suggest having all the configuration/setup a part of the sample application itself? Deployment of the sample application should be all you need.

Heat Stroke Topic Guide
Heat Stroke: Heat stroke is a medical emergency. Heat stroke is caused by prolonged exposure to high temperatures while working, exercising, doing strenuous or non-strenuous activity, and certain medications. Symptoms of heat stroke include muscle cramps, profuse sweating, rapid pulse and breathing, dizziness, and headache. If heat stroke is not treated emergently, the prognosis is poor.
Heat Cramps Heat cramps occur when a person is working or exercising in a hot environment. The cause of heat cramps is not well known, however, those at risk are infants and children, the elderly, those without proper air conditioning in hot environments, alcohol use, and certain medications. Heat cramps generally do not require medical attention, however, if heat exhaustion or heat stroke is suspected, seek medical care immedately.

When you think of New York Fashion Week, images of glamorous models, famous designers, and impeccably dressed celebrities spring to mind.
But who keeps the shows running smoothly behind the scenes? For big-name designers like Nicole Miller, it's public-relations powerhouse Alison Brod.
Brod's army of publicists and interns are the muscle behind some of the biggest fashion and beauty brands that make Fashion Week tick (think Kerastase, Beauty.com, Nails Inc.). In their black dresses and high heels, they never break a sweat.
To find out what it's like to work for the award-winning agency during New York Fashion Week, we shadowed Tori Oliva, a student in the first week of her fall internship with Brod. Keep scrolling to see how it went.
On day two of spring 2016 New York Fashion Week, Oliva started her day as usual, arriving at the Alison Brod office at 9 a.m.Sarah Jacobs

At the beginning of the summer my son Ronan, age 12, and I built him his first high-powered gaming PC. Me being a dad and all, I did so happily, but with one proviso -- he'd have to dedicate time every day to learning a programming language. He was slightly sceptical of this, having taken a few less-than-interesting intro to programming classes in the past. Prepared for this, I recommended that we enroll him in Youth Digital's comprehensive Java course called Minecraft Server Desgin 1. This got his full attention, as he had dreams of creating his own custom servers and gameplay modes to host Minecraft sessions with his friends.
We signed him up and dove in. Our immediate impression was that site and course are smartly designed and easy to navigate. All material is introduced through clear, well-produced, often funny videos that didn't talk down him, but instead did a great job of walking him through new concepts, then pausing while he took pop quizzes and did hands-on coding exercises.
The course includes a year of server hosting, 24-hour tech support (that was fast and helpful the few times he's needed it), and perhaps best of all, a browser-based integrated development environment (IDE) for editing the game, player, and team Java files. Within this Codenvy IDE (Windows and OSX only), you can launch the updated server with one button, which makes it fast to test code and correlate newly learned concepts with the "real world" Minecraft results.
He chose one of the four pre-built maps, learned to modify the default server file description text, whitelisted a few friend, and launched his Minecraft server within the first hour of instruction. Read the rest

Also: every cop show in the history of America has made it clear to even the thickest planks that you get to have a lawyer present during questioning. This apparently escaped the notice of Irving's finest, though.
The Texas ACLU is all over this, and points out that MacArthur High principal Daniel Cummings's attempt to get Mohamed to sign a confession could have given the police the tools to arrest him on terrorism charges and secure a conviction.

Irving Police Chief Larry Boyd said he did "not have answers to [that] specific question" when reporters asked him Wednesday why Mohamed was not allowed to speak to his parents.
The executive director of the Texas chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union said that answer is not good enough.
"Once they're being questioned, they have a right to refuse answering," Terri Burke told The Daily Beast. "And, unless it's something like a traffic violation, [police] immediately need to release the child to their parents."
At the very least, Mohamed should have been able to speak with his parents.
"If a child seeks to have a short conference with his parents, [the police] cannot deny them that.
Here's an update to the story about a schoolchild arrested in Irving, TX for bringing his homemade clock to school: This morning, President Obama tweeted: "Cool clock, Ahmed. Want to bring it to the White House? We should inspire more kids like you to like science." Read the rest
Ahmed Mohamed is a gifted, driven maker-kid who's in the ninth grade at MacArthur High in Irving, Texas. When he showed the homemade clock he soldered and pieced together to his engineering teacher, he was told to keep it in his bag. But when the alarm went off in English class, his teacher accused him of bringing a bomb to school.
He told the teacher, and then the principal, and then the police offers who'd been summoned, that it was a digital clock he'd made and brought to school to show as evidence of the kinds of things he was making. He'd loved robotics club in middle school and was hoping to connect to a similar peer group in his new high school.
He was arrested, handcuffed, and paraded through the school with an officer on each arm, wearing his NASA shirt.
When he was brought before the school police, the officer who arrested him looked at him and said, "Yup. That's who I thought it was." Ahmed Mohamed and his family (and the Council on Islamic American Relations) believe that the officer was referring to the color of his skin and his name.
Police spokesman James McLellan admits that Mohamed always maintained that the device was a clock, not a bomb, "but there was no broader explanation." When the Dallas Morning News asked him what "broader explanation" he was looking for, McLellan said, "It could reasonably be mistaken as a device if left in a bathroom or under a car. Read the rest
