quote: One developer we consulted about the issue noted, "consumers are being scammed by [PC] OEMs on a large scale. OEMs will encourage customers to upgrade a 2GB machine to 4GB, even though the usable RAM might be limited to 2.3GB.This is especially a problem on high-end gaming machines that have huge graphics cards as well as lots of RAM." "Microsoft even changed the way the OS reports the amount of RAM available; rumor is, due to pressure from OEMs," the developer told us. "In Vista and prior, it reported usable RAM, while in SP1 they changed it to report installed RAM ignoring the fact that much of the RAM was unusable due to overlap with video memory." And so many PC users are installing 4GB of RAM in their PCs and thinking that it is being used by the system, when in fact it is no more beneficial than if the RAM were simply poked halfway into the CD slot.For example, Dell's top of the line $5799 Alienware gamer PC comes standard with a 1GB video card, 2GB of RAM, and 32-bit Windows Home Premium. That means the system can only possibly use 2.3GB of RAM, but Dell "recommends" users spend $250 (or $8 per month with financing) to buy a 4GB upgrade (below) that will offer them little more than bragging rights, as the 1GB video card and the roughly 750MB of other MMIO will make the extra 2GB unusable. Dell says "Upgrading your memory allows you to take full advantage of system capabilities as well as increasing system efficiency," but that's simply not true on this page.

I used two cans of salmon. If I make these again I will use real fillets. The skin, bones and smell were pretty gross. I also used spicy chipotle panko bread crums. Instead of celery I sauteed garlic with the onions. After putting them together I wasnt expecting to like them. Although slightly dry, (should have used a second egg), these were pretty darn tasty. My husband and even my 10 year old liked them. I think the spicy panko gave it a really nice punch.

From EatingWell: Winter 2004, EatingWell Serves Two, The Essential EatingWell Cookbook (2004)
If you are trying to boost your intake of omega-3s, try this simple favorite. It is a great way to use convenient canned (or leftover) salmon. The tangy dill sauce provides a tart balance.
117 Reviews for Easy Salmon Cakes
1 3/4 cup bread crumbs is definitely too much. 1 cup would be plenty. With whole wheat breads crumbs maybe less, depending on the size of the egg. One time I used panko which I preferred. I also used grated zucchini and a little paprika which added nice substance and flavor.
I serve this with Fried Green Tomatoes :)
Quick and easy dinner to make! I added 1 tbs of mayo as a extra binder as another user suggested, and shredded zucchini to the mixture to add some texture. I actually did not have salmon on hand, so I used canned tuna instead, which still worked out very well. The dill sauce goes perfectly with this dish. Served with home made coleslaw. Delish!
I made this recipe exactly as written and it turned out great. Very tasty, very easy to make. The real stand out was the creamy dill dressing that accompanies the recipe. Leftovers were made into a fish sandwich with dill sauce the next day.
I ended up having to use 1/4 cup of egg whites and reduced the bread to 1 cup. As written, I definitely don't think there was enough moisture from just the one egg. Came out great, crunchy/crispy on the outside. I served it with the Green Goddess Sauce from this site.

By WAYNE MA
BEIJING -- Chinese companies are stepping in to support
refinery projects in Latin America and the Caribbean due to an
uncertain political situation and deteriorating financial
conditions in Venezuela, which has been slow to deliver on
earlier promises to develop refineries in the region.
State-owned China National
Petroleum Corp., for example, is mulling an equity stake in the
$13 billion Refineria del Pacifico project in Ecuador.
CNPC also has a $4.5 billion engineering contract to expand
production at the Cienfuegos refinery in Cuba, while
state-owned China CAMC Engineering Co. has a $233 million
contract to help build a refinery in Nicaragua.
All three projects were originally conceived
by Venezuela in 2007. The Ecuador and Cuba refineries are 49%
owned by Venezuela's state-run Petroleos de Venezuela, while
the Nicaragua refinery is backed by Venezuela
through an investment company.
"The basic problem begins with a lack of investment capital
from Venezuela to cover all of its promises made not only to
Ecuador but to other places," said Jorge Pinon, a research
fellow at the University of Texas at Austin.
"A lot of these announcements were political and without any
sound commercial value behind them."
Venezuela has sought greater influence in the region by
offering subsidized crude and promises to build refineries in
neighboring countries. However, Venezuela has struggled to
follow through since the 2008 financial crisis, which triggered
a sharp decline in global oil prices and hurt oil revenue.
Chinese energy companies have been cautious about buying
into downstream projects in Latin America and the
Caribbean due to their lack of familiarity with local markets,
fear of nationalization and concerns over the regulatory environment, said Yu Simin, a lawyer
at King & Wood who specializes in outbound China energy and
infrastructure investment.
Aside from CNPC's planned joint $1.2 billion refinery in Costa Rica, China's role
has been mainly as a contractor rather than stakeholder.
All that could change, however, if countries like Cuba,
which rely heavily on Venezuelan crude, decide to sell equity
stakes in refining projects to the Chinese in
order to deepen ties and ensure oil supplies.
"What we've seen recently is that when a Chinese state-owned
construction company goes into a
project, part of the payment is not only in cash but in equity
interest," Mr. Yu said, citing some construction of overseas nuclear
power plants as an example.
For the Chinese, downstream investments in the region make
strategic sense because they provide additional outlets for
crude produced from offshore oil projects in places like Brazil and
CNPC's listed unit PetroChina, for example, is already in
talks to buy a refinery in Aruba from Valero Energy
for $350 million. PetroChina is also studying the construction of refineries and
logistics centers in the Caribbean and North and South
America, PetroChina's chairman Jiang Jiemin said in May.
With Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez battling cancer and
facing a tough election at home in October, neighboring
countries like Cuba are looking to China to fill the political
and economic vacuum that may be left behind.
All eyes will be on Cuban President Raul Castro's visit to
Beijing, which wraps up this week, to see if any energy deals
are announced.
"Cuba needs to try to manage what happens if there is a
change in government in Caracas tomorrow, either by the death
of Chavez or by Chavez losing the election," said Mr.
"I personally believe that China would make an important
long-term strategic partner for Cuba."

Comments will be on Facebook and my believe, CHINA will stay with CUBA, considering that all of a sudden Venezuela or Chavez hasa offered the help of sending over Drilling Towers and try hard to located the Crude Oil around Cuba and this is concentrated just W/N/W of the Cuban Western tip and Venezuela has promised CHINA to help them with all the refineries around the World. Venezuela has some of the best refineries compared to the one in Aruba which is old dated and requires a lot of money to be set up adequately.
Gustavo Heins
All people know that venezual goverment use PDVSA as a way to have cash for it "political" goal
Carlos Diaz
The analysis is essentially correct in my opinion (familar with Venezuela's oil & gas industry).Some important aspects to point out and highlight:1) Most refineries in the region would depend on Venezuelan crude production (specially Cuba's). In line with this, China is focusing in Venezuela's upstream segment.2) HOWEVER, Venezuela's production continues to decline despite massive financing from China to improve the Orinoco Oil Belt production. The Belt is very energy intensive (electric power) for its artificial lifting of extra-heavy oil and the electric sector is in crisis in Venezuela. The needed infrastructure is simply not there and very slow in its development.3) China financing to Venezuela is backed by payments in "oil futures". This requires that the financing gets rapidly converted to new production. If not, then existing production has to be used for payment. This would further deteriorate PDVSA's cash flow.Improvement in this situation is unlikely. PDVSA, with its 60% ownership by law of all oil & gas projects, lacks the resources to properly develop these projects. The hostile legal and labor environments in Venezuela and the lack of PDVSA human and technology resources are also significant hurdles for the timely development of new production.

William Easterly, a professor in NYU's Department of Economics, has won the 2013 Adam Smith Award for his research, which has "significantly changed the terms of the debate over the role of government and foreign aid in addressing the problems of poverty and underdevelopment," said the award's sponsor, the Association of Private Enterprise Education (APEE).
APEE pointed to Easterly's The Elusive Quest for Growth and The White Man's Burden as reflecting "a deep understanding of the role of the entrepreneurial market process in lifting individuals out of poverty and producing a social order of freedom, dignity, peace, and prosperity," adding that "Easterly is one of the clearest voices in economics today for how the free enterprise system is a catalyst for human betterment."
Previous Adam Smith Award recipients include Nobel Prize winners James Buchanan, Vernon Smith, Douglass North, and Elinor Ostrom, and other leading economic thinkers such as Armen Alchian, Robert Barro, Harold Demsetz, Allan Meltzer, and Gordon Tullock.
The Adam Smith Award, the highest honor bestowed by APEE, is given to recognize an individual who has made a sustained and lasting contribution to the perpetuation of the ideals of a free market economy as first laid out in Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations.
Easterly will be honored on Sunday, April 14th, 2013 at the opening banquet of the annual meetings of APEE in Maui.
Easterly is co-director of NYU's Development Research Institute and has been named among the top 100 Twitter users in international affairs by Foreign Policy magazine.

Israeli Strike Kills Hamas Commander
TEL AVIV—Israel pounded the Gaza Strip with artillery shells and about 20 airstrikes on Wednesday, killing Hamas's top military commander and at least seven other people in the most violent assault on the coastal territory in four years.
The Israeli strikes came in retaliation to a wave of missile attacks on Israeli territory in recent days from the Gaza Strip. Palestinian militants responded Wednesday by firing dozens of rockets at nearby Israeli communities. Hamas leaders called the attack an act of war and Hamas's armed wing warned on its website that Israel had "opened the gates of hell," raising fears that the fighting could escalate into full-blown war.
The Gaza assault thrusts the Israeli-Palestinian conflict back into the region's spotlight for the first time since Arab Spring uprisings swept the region nearly two years ago. Since the last Israeli-Hamas war ended in 2009, several of the Middle East's core relationships have fundamentally changed. An Islamist government has come to power in Egypt, on Israel's southern border. To the east, Syria is embroiled in war.
The resurgent violence in Israel stands as an early test of how those historic changes will impact and reshape a conflict that has in many ways defined the region's politics for much of the past century. Among the lingering questions are whether democratically elected Islamic leaning governments will chart a different course than their predecessors in dealing with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Another is how Hamas's break with Syria's regime, long its chief regional patron, will impact its policies.
Egypt's Islamist-led government, which controls Gaza's southern border and has close ties to Hamas, angrily denounced the Israeli offensive and recalled its ambassador for the first time since 2000. The Muslim Brotherhood called on Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi to "review'' Egypt's peace treaty with Israel, a cornerstone of regional stability.
The United Nations Security Council held an emergency meeting on the attacks late Wednesday. While diplomats said there was agreement the violence should stop, the council came to no decision.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the Israeli offensive would continue and could yet expand if Palestinian militants keep firing rockets at Israel. "If necessary, the military is prepared to widen the operation," he said in a televised address. "We won't accept a situation in which Israeli civilians are threatened by the terror of rocket fire."
Washington condemned Hamas's recent attacks on southern Israel. "We support Israel's right to defend itself, and we encourage Israel to continue to take every effort to avoid civilian casualties," State Department spokesman Mark Toner said.
President Barack Obama spoke Wednesday with Mr. Netanyahu and Mr. Morsi about the violence, "given Egypt's central role in preserving regional security," the White House said. Mr. Obama and Mr. Morsi "agreed on the importance of working to de-escalate the situation as quickly as possible and agreed to stay in close touch in the days ahead."
Wednesday's assault began with an airstrike in the heart of Gaza City at around 4 p.m. that incinerated the Kia sedan carrying Ahmed Jabari, commander of Hamas' armed wing, the Ezzedin al-Qassam Brigades, and his assistant, killing both men.
Israel's military quickly released aerial video footage of what it said was the strike on Mr. Jabari, which showed a vehicle driving through a narrow street followed by a powerful explosion. The Israel Defense Forces confirmed the attack on Twitter. Hamas confirmed Mr. Jabari had been killed.
As the top commander of Hamas's armed wing, Mr. Jabari was arguably Gaza's most powerful man and long one of Israel's most hated foes. Israel accuses him of ordering dozens of terrorist attacks and overseeing the kidnapping and five-year captivity of Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit. He is the highest-ranking Hamas officials assassinated by Israel since the 2004 assassination of Hamas leader Abdel Aziz Rantisi.
Israeli airstrikes continued into the night. The IDF said its initial salvos targeted Gazan militants' long-range rocket arsenals that can reach Tel Aviv's southern suburbs. Later Wednesday evening, Israeli naval vessels joined the assault with artillery shells, the IDF said.
Israel's army said it was prepared to order ground troops into Gaza if needed, and Israel television said the army had issued call-up orders to reservists.
"This will not be wham, bam and we're finished,'' Defense Minister Ehud Barak said. "We are at the beginning of the incident, not at the end."
Palestinian rocket-launch squads retaliated with a barrage of rockets shot toward southern Israeli cities, with at least one landing in Beersheba, the biggest city in southern Israel, according to Israel television reports. Israel's army reported that more than 30 rockets had landed in a string of cities and towns near Gaza and that about 25 more were intercepted by Israel's newly deployed Iron Dome missile-defense system.
In Gaza, Hamas evacuated government buildings and compounds and sealed off the streets around them. Gazan health officials said late Wednesday that at least eight people had been killed in the Israeli strikes, including two young children, with another 50 wounded in the assault. They said they expected both figures, which couldn't be independently confirmed, to rise before morning. There were no reported casualties on the Israeli side.
Israel's attack, which its army code named "Pillar of Defense," came after several days of escalating back-and-forth hostilities in which Gaza militants fired dozens of rockets and mortars at southern Israel and struck an Israeli army jeep with an anti-tank rocket.
Smaller militant factions claimed credit for most of the attacks against Israel. But in a rare break with the restraint it has shown in recent years, Hamas said that it, too, had launched some of the recent attacks.
The attacks also cast new questions over a separate, controversial Palestinian effort to gain international diplomatic recognition.
Hamas's rival Palestinian Fatah Party—which controls the West Bank and is led by President Mahmoud Abbas—is readying a push for recognition at the U.N. later this month. Some in Hamas fear that Mr. Abbas's diplomatic push could boost Palestinian support for Fatah by making it appear that Mr. Abbas is doing more than Hamas to confront Israel.
The Palestinian request would give the Palestinian Authority access to criminal courts, among other things. It has been vigorously opposed by Israel and the U.S., which characterize it as a unilateral effort at recognition that sidesteps the continuing peace process.
Just hours before the strikes in Gaza, Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman called Mr. Abbas's request for the vote "diplomatic terror." He released a position paper calling to topple Mr. Abbas and dismantle the Palestinian Authority if he pressed ahead at the U.N., a move that would effectively undo the 19-year-old Oslo Peace Accords.
Mr. Lieberman's comments on Wednesday—along with similarly combative recent statements by Finance Minister Yuval Steinitz that the U.N. bid represents a "strategic threat" to Israel—suggest that Mr. Netanyahu's government is prepared to go to the mat to stop the Palestinian U.N. push, especially coming, as it does, in the midst of an Israeli election campaign.
Israel is counting on Washington's considerable diplomatic heft to sway key European countries to oppose the bid and to convince Mr. Abbas to back down. But the Israeli offensive on Gaza is certain to complicate U.S. efforts. A climbdown by Mr. Abbas in the wake of Israel's lethal assault on Gaza would doom the Palestinian leader's already weak domestic support.
The offensive has the potential to stir up sympathy for the bid in some European capitals. The Palestinians are expected to easily muster the majority needed to get U.N. approval, but without the backing of key European powers, the victory could prove pyrrhic.
Hamas's decision to step up attacks against Israel in recent days may also be a product of internal rifts, according to Gaza residents close to the movement. Many in Hamas's militant wing are frustrated with the movement's political leadership, fearing they are losing popular support by allowing corruption to seep back into Gaza's governance and refusing to confront Israel, these people said.
Mr. Netanyahu is facing domestic political considerations of his own ahead of the Jan. 22 parliamentary vote that could see him re-elected.
The recent spate of rocket attacks had kicked up criticism in Israel that Gaza militants were no longer deterred by Israel. Those charges hit at the core of Mr. Netanyahu's electoral strength in the eyes of many Israeli voters, that he is the most capable guardian of Israel's security. In spite of Mr. Netanyahu's reputation as a hawk, the Gaza offensive is the most extensive military operation he has ordered.
The flareup in Gaza is also an early test for how Egypt's new Islamist-led government will navigate a conflict has long frustrated Arab governments. If it fails to throw its full support behind the Palestinians in Gaza, it risks losing domestic support. But by wading too deeply into the fray, it risks entangling itself in a seemingly endless conflict and jeopardizing a peace treaty that has been at the heart of Egypt's national security and foreign policy for over three decades.
Cairo's recall of its ambassador reflects pressure on Egyptian President Morsi to take a harder line toward Israel than did his predecessor, Hosni Mubarak.

Adding to Ciaocibai's answer:
"你给我滚" could be same to "给我滚" and then further reduced to "滚".
In both "你给我滚" and "给我滚", personally, I think the "给我" part is used to make emphasis on strong emotions, such as contempt or strong anger. It will therefore depends on the tune/context to translate it.
E.g. "给我滚一边去", can be used by a gangster head to someone else who is not important, to show his/her contempt and therefore show his/her superiority in the gang.
Or when a father is really angry at his son who commit a crime, he is furious and shouts out loud "给我滚!"
On grammar, "你给我 [doing something]" means: I am ordering you [doing something].
That's natural Chinese:)
I see the 给我 as essentially having the same meaning in both sentences, a meaning which could be summarised as 'for me' . That is, the literal meaning of the sentence is 'Fuck off for me!', or 'I want you to fuck off!'. But this is not being polite, not at all. When you shout at someone in English, 'I want you out of here!', adding 'I want you...' isn't an attempt to be nice; it's a strong expression of the speaker's will.
In translation the 给我 can be safely ignored.
I'd say it is like 'you get away from me', with the 给我 part just meaning get away. I suppose if you were being polite you could translate it as 'give me some space', but to be honest I think it's pretty subjective.
Too many options, other possible candidates are:
给我 used in such context is really just for emphasis and not required to be explicitly translated, just note the essence of it.
Maybe get out of my face is a proper translation.
A LITERAL translation would be something like: "Give me space!" But its real (impolite) connotation is more like "get lost" or "buzz off."
Nǐ gěi wǒ gǔn
You for the benefit of me, get lost !

Expansion Project
We moved!
On March, 17 2012, Mariposa Food Co-op opened the doors of its expanded location at 4824 Baltimore Avenue. We hope you come by to shop!
At the new Mariposa Food Co-op:
•Anyone can shop regardless of membership (though all members receive at least a 5% discount.)
•We operate out of a large, newly-renovated, energy-efficient, historic building with spacious aisles that is wheelchair accessible.
•We have expanded our product selections to provide access to more healthy, locally grown and sustainably produced food (including meat).
•We accept cash, credit cards and EBT/SNAP for all transactions
•We are open 7 days a week.
•Member "work-shifts" are optional for a larger discount
Why did we expand? For almost 40 years, Mariposa has been providing our members with healthy, locally grown, and sustainably produced food. We grew from a buying club of a few dozen members to a full-service storefront open every day of the week, with over 2,000 members today. In the past few years, membership has skyrocketed and demand for our product has increased.
With just 500 square feet of retail space at our old location we offered a full line of produce and dairy products, but were extremely limited in the variety of dry, canned, prepared, and specialty diet foods available to shoppers. The lack of space also created a barrier between us and the community as a whole, stunting access to what we offered and potential membership growth.
How did we do it? Our expansion and relocation took a lot of work and investment! Luckily we have a dedicated membership and hardworking staff. Much of the work was done by members and we are very grateful for all of the member and community support we received.
We began looking for spaces and exploring the idea of expanding back in 2007. In 2008, Mariposa's membership made an official decision to expand. This was not only to provide a better shopping location for the current membership, but create a new space and new policies to welcome more members and shoppers. From there we began planning our what would be a four year expansion process.
How much did it cost? Mariposa's expansion cost over $2.5 million. This included purchasing and fully renovating a new building. It also included the cost of planning, project management, architectural design, staffing and financial consultants, fundraising and new equipment and inventory.
If you are interested in where we have gotten our funding from check out this fundraising summary + pie chart.
Second Phase of Construction: After major renovations to 4824 Baltimore, Mariposa opened in March 2012 as a fully operational grocery store. The first floor functions as retail and storage space; the second floor as offices and meetings space. In a second phase of construction, we hope to add roof access, including a rooftop garden and beehives. The best way to help support these future dreams is by shopping today!
Proposed Store Cross-section*:
*Note: elevator roof access, including garden and beehives, is planned for the second phase of construction.

Coke believes Florida citrus is the real thing
Debra Shankle, Vice President Coca-Cola Refreshments East Region Manufacturing, left Richard Hamann, Mayor of Auburndale, Commissioner Adam Putnam, Florida Department of Agriculture, Steve Cahillane President, Coca-Cola Americas, Bill Becker, President of Peace River Citrus Products, and Jose Luis Cutrale, Chairman Cutrale Citrus Juices plant a tree after announcing the planting of 25,000 acres of new orange groves last week in Auburndale.. The largest planting in Florida in more than a quarter century will be used for Minute Maid and Simply Brands.
Florida Commissioner of Agriculture, Adam Putnam, lauded the news last week that Coca-Cola will invest $2 billion in citrus tree plantings in the state.
AUBURNDALE — The Coca-Cola Co. said last week that it is spending $2 billion to support the planting of 25,000 acres of new orange groves in Florida, a move officials are lauding as a major investment in the Sunshine State's citrus industry.
The announcement was made at a news conference at Coca-Cola's juice production plant in Auburndale.
Coca-Cola will buy fruit from two growers: Peace River Citrus Products in Vero Beach and Cutrale Citrus, one of Brazil's top growers and juice processors.
Cutrale Citrus' entrance to Florida as a grower is significant, said Florida Agriculture Commissioner Adam Putnam.
"The fact that one of the dominant Brazilian players will now have an ownership stake in actual production in Florida is a tremendous development," Putnam said.
Coca-Cola owns the Minute Maid and Simply juice brands and already buys juice from Cutrale in Brazil. Coca-Cola is also a significant juice processor in Florida; the news conference was held at the largest juice bottling plant in the United States.
Some 5 million new trees will be planted in the new groves, believed to be the largest citrus addition in the state for at least 25 years. The groves will be located in Polk, DeSoto and Hendry counties in central Florida.
"It's an investment in a market that's very important to us," said Steve Cahillane, the president of Coca-Cola Americas.
Analysts say that the announcement intensifies the juice wars between Coca-Cola and PepsiCo, which owns the Tropicana brand.
"This shows Coke's commitment both to the Florida citrus business and the future of its own juice business," said John Sicher, editor and publisher of Beverage Digest.
Sicher said that consumers have a growing interest in juice beverages because they are seeking products with "health, wellness and natural attributes."
"Citrus juices hit those criteria and make juices a potential category for growth," he said.
Coca-Cola officials said that Simply juice counted $1.2 billion in annual sales.
Company officials say the new groves and resulting juice production are expected to add about 4,100 jobs to Florida's economy.
The move also is seen as a boost to historically declining acreage devoted to citrus production in Florida. During the state's past housing boom, many citrus farmers sold their land to developers. Since 1997, total citrus acreage has fallen by 25 percent, from 600,000 acres to 450,000 acres, because of the disease, pests and other pressures, according to Florida Citrus Mutual.
Coca-Cola officials said that the Florida Citrus Commission is working on an economic study centered on the company's investment, and that a preliminary draft shows that over the course of 25 years the expansion will add more than $10.5 billion — or $422 million per year — to Florida's economy. Company officials said Coca-Cola buys a third of all Florida oranges.
Coca-Cola reported its first-quarter results in mid-April; they topped Wall Street expectations as sales volume rose in emerging markets. Shares of Coca-Cola Co. rose nearly 6 percent to $42.37 and touched their highest point since the late 1990s.
Cahillane said the company also purchases juice from Brazil, Florida's biggest competitor in the juice industry. He said different harvest times in each location allow the company to give customers "consistent, great-tasting juice." About 90 percent of Florida's oranges are used for juice; by contrast, the majority of California's orange crop is sold as fresh fruit. Florida is second in the world for orange juice production, behind Brazil.
Jose Luis Cutrale, the chief executive officer of Cutrale Citrus Juices, spoke at Tuesday's announcement and is considered the patriarch of the Brazilian juice industry. He owns one of the biggest juice companies in the world.
"We are going to do more juice and sell more juice," he said. "People need it."
Under the program, Cutrale and Peace River Citrus will each plant 12,500 acres. Coca-Cola will buy the fruit.
Bill Becker, president of Peace River Citrus Products in Vero Beach, is one of the growers. He said the new trees will be planted on land that once held citrus groves or are currently idle.
"It's a big help to the entire industry and to the state, for that matter," said Becker, adding that the research being done in Florida about the deadly citrus greening disease has bolstered the company's confidence in the long-term health of the state's citrus industry.
Becker said he hopes that Coca-Cola's investment will reverse the trend of declining citrus acreage in Florida.
The state's citrus crop suffered huge losses this past season due to warm, dry weather, too much fruit on each tree and citrus greening disease.
According to the Florida Citrus Mutual, the citrus industry directly and indirectly contributes some 76,000 jobs in Florida and is a $10 billion industry.
"Citrus is synonymous with Florida, but the industry has faced many challenges in recent years, particularly the growing threat of citrus greening," Putnam added. "With Coca-Cola's generous investment towards supporting 25,000 acres of new orange groves in Central Florida, the citrus industry and our state's entire economy will benefit."
Coca-Cola has played an active role in the Florida citrus industry since purchasing Minute Maid in 1960. Today, the company operates 26 facilities in Florida, employing 6,100 workers.
Over the last five years, The Coca-Cola Company has invested more than $400 million in its operations throughout the state, the company said. Most recently, the Auburndale facility, which produces Simply juices, underwent a significant expansion. Adding a new production line and increased warehouse space, this
multimillion dollar project created 129 new jobs, bringing the total number of facility employees to more than 500.
"The Coca-Cola Company is proud to be part of this investment in Florida and its citrus industry. A thriving Florida citrus industry is critical to helping us build our Simply and Minute Maid juice brands," said Cahillane. "Through viable partnerships and meaningful investment with Cutrale and Peace River, we together will foster sustainable, responsible growth in Florida. This is good news for the state's citrus industry, our business and the communities we serve."
"Coca-Cola's commitment to purchase all of the fruit from the new groves enables us to play a role in helping restore Florida's citrus industry with the largest planting of orange trees in 25 years," added Cutrale.
In 2010, The Coca-Cola Company and Cutrale Citrus Juices pledged $1.5 million each to the University of Florida's Citrus Research and Development Foundation. This grant furthers critical research to help address Huanglongbing disease, commonly known as citrus greening.

A judge in Mayfield has sent a grand jury the case against a man charged with trying to run down state troopers with a farm tractor.
According to The Paducah Sun, the court found probable cause on Wednesday in the case against 45-year-old Michael Rose. He is charged with criminal attempt to murder police officers.
Police were called Dec. 11 by a woman who said Rose was threatening to destroy vehicles at her home with a tractor. Troopers pursued the tractor into a field where they said Rose came at their cars and then lowered the front end loader and drove toward them when they got out of their vehicles to arrest him. They shot out a tire on the tractor and arrested Rose.

MORRISTOWN - It had been over 100 Friday nights since Union Local's Jets had something to celebrate on the football field.
That all changed Friday night.
Union Local ended a 22-game losing streak, dating back to the first week of the 2010 season, with a hard-fought 13-12 victory over Edison.
Union Local finished with just 102 yards of offense, including just nine rushing yards.
Edison was its own worst enemy.
The Wildcats committed six turnovers, five of which came in the second half and were penalized 12 times for 129 yards.
After trading turnovers, Edison put together a solid eight-play, 55-yard drive as junior signal caller Nolan Marcus broke in from a yard out. The point after failed and Edison held a 6-0 lead with 1:28 showing in the first quarter.
Union Local appeared to be attempting to draw the Wildcats offsides from its 40-yard line but the ball was snapped surprising Jets' QB Gavin Porter, who never got the exchange. The Wildcats took over at the Jets 38-yard line.
A quick four-play drive was capped with Marcus finding room off the left side resulting in a 31-yard scoring jaunt. Edison's two-point try failed leaving the 'Cats advantage at 12-0 with 4:24 left in the first half.
On Edison's second play of scrimmage to open the second half, senior Chris Graziani broke free for a 65-yard TD. A holding call, however, would negate the score. The Wildcats fumbled on the next play with the Jets' Travis James covering at the Edison 24-yard line.
UL had a fourth-and-goal from the four-yard line, but Porter's pass fell incomplete.
Edison moved out from the shadow if its own goal line, but another fumble would give the Jets possession at the Wildcats 26-yard line. Colton McKivitz forced the fumble and Jesse Keith covered it.
Union Local would cash in on the next play as Porter found wide out Kaleb McDiffitt open on the left sideline and the freshman made one man miss en route to paydirt. The snap was fumbled and Edison held a 12-6 edge with 5:04 left in the third quarter.
Edison opened the next drive at its 12-yard line and on the first play put the pigskin on the ground again. McKivitz's forced it again and James covered his second fumble of the game.
Three Porter carries culminated in his one-yard burst. Eric Dunfee booted the important point after handing the Jets a 13-12 lead with 3:42 showing in the third quarter.
After trading punts, Edison took over near midfield but a mistake on a handoff left the ball laying on the turf and McKivitz swooped in and picked up the pigskin and returned it to the Edison 20-yard line. The Wildcats defense would stiffen and sniffed out a UL fake field goal attempt to keep the spread at just one.
Again after trading punts, Tater Blake read an Edison screen perfectly and the ensuing face mask penalty gave the Jets great field position at the Edison 10-yard line. Union Local would not be able to capitalize though and Edison would have one last chance needing to drive 81 yards with 3:36 left the game.
On the second play, Graziani broke into the open along the left sideline, delivered a strong stiff-arm to McDiffitt but the DB's effort did just enough to trip up the Edison RB after a 52-yard gain. Marcus was tackled by McKivitz for a loss on first down and then watched as three straight pass attempts fell incomplete giving the ball back to UL with 1:58 remaining.The Wildcats had no timeouts remaining and the Jets were able to run the clock out.
Edison was led by Graziani's 14 carries for 99 yards. Marcus passed for 83 and ran for another 45 and two TDs.
The Wildcats got solid defensive efforts from Hunter Sweat and Jonah Haught.

Patricia Cornwell testified in federal court in Boston that her former financial advisers improperly invested and spent $89 million of her money.
Cornwell said the mismanagement of her finances forced her to move and miss a deadline for a book for the first time in her career. She also said the upheaval upset her dog, Choo Choo.
"This was very destabilizing," the Daily News quoted Cornwell as saying. "I lost my ability to focus and concentrate. I did not know what the book was about anymore. I was just lost. I was adrift. I was extremely stressed."
"Where did the money go? Ms. Cornwell and Dr. Gruber spent the money," said James Campbell, the attorney representing the financial company.

What revision control programs or methods do you guys use when writing?
closed as not constructive by Tom Wijsman, Robert Cartaino♦ Aug 5 '11 at 2:16
As it currently stands, this question is not a good fit for our Q&A format. We expect answers to be supported by facts, references, or expertise, but this question will likely solicit debate, arguments, polling, or extended discussion. If you feel that this question can be improved and possibly reopened, visit the help center for guidance.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
It depends on the context. SE answers and email get typed directly into the window. :)
At work, most of what I write is going to end up in a word document or (shudder) a PowerPoint chart. Neither of those programs have passable version control so I've resigned to one of two pretty lackluster solutions:
Needless to say, even these solutions are better than version control by email, which is what a lot of folks seem to do.
Now, when working alone (i.e. at home), I've taken to making notes in plain text files (perhaps in Markdown) and storing them in a personal Mercurial repository. That way I can get decent looking formatting when I preview the files, but I also get efficient storage of diffs and the ability to use a standard diff program to track changes.
It depends on your environment (one machine, multiple machines, OSes, possibility of sharing, importance of security and robustness vs ease of use).
While I favor using traditional version control for most of my writing and work, I like the convenience of Dropbox for quick informal documents. It has the bonus of being cross-platform, having automatic syncing and versioning built in, as well as having the possibility to share documents or access them over the web.
That said, know that they had some security issues in the past, and I do not consider them a robust solution, just a convenient one. For my more serious documentation and articles, I write them in LaTeX and manage them using git, allowing me to have local source control as well as having the possibility to push the changes somewhere else, for external reviewers and official versions.
It can be anything. All modern SCM programs handle binary files such as Word .doc/.docx ones. They just won't be able to diff it internally.
It depends on the complexity. (and what I am writing.) For some things, copying the file at significant moments is enough. For others, I use the same SCM as my code (Subversion/Git). Or even the one built into my IDE (Eclipse.)
For writing type writing, sometimes the tool keeps a history including dropbox or my wordpress blog.

Is it safe to use "old" to mean "previous" or "former" for something like "my old teacher"? Or is it a bit risky, because "old" also has a meaning with respect to age (i.e., chronologically gifted)?
Wiktionary doesn't give any warnings about "old" potentially causing offense. But should it be avoided in this context anyway?

Let $X$ be a singular irreducible projective curve over an algebraically closed field and $\pi : \widetilde{X} \to X$ the normalization morphism. In the book on Neron models by Bosch et al. (I have slightly simplified the setup), the Picard group of $X$ is computed by taking the long exact sequence associated to $$0 \to \mathcal{O}_X^* \to \pi_*\mathcal{O}_{\widetilde{X}}^* \to \pi_*\mathcal{O}_{\widetilde{X}}^*/\mathcal{O}_X^* \to 0.$$ This seems to depend on the assertion that $\text{Pic}(\widetilde{X}) \cong H^1(X,\pi_*\mathcal{O}_{\widetilde{X}}^*)$, which is not obvious to me. If $\mathcal{O}_{\widetilde{X}}^*$ were coherent, then this would be a consequence of the exactness of $\pi_*$ on coherent sheaves ($\pi$ is finite), but of course $\mathcal{O}_{\widetilde{X}}^*$ is not even a sheaf of $\mathcal{O}_{\widetilde{X}}$-modules. How can we resolve this difficulty?
Maybe the following works?
Let's consider the ringed space $(X, \pi_* O_{\widetilde X})$ and also the ringed space $(\widetilde X, O_{\widetilde X})$. Certainly $\pi_{\*}$ gives us an isomorphism $$ \text{Pic}(\widetilde X, O_{\widetilde X})) \cong \text{Pic}(X, \pi_* O_{\widetilde X}) $$ which sends an $O_X$-line bundle $L$ to the $\pi_* O_X$-module $\pi_* L$, right? (I'm using the fact that $X$ is projective here to show that there exist open trivializing sets containing various finite collections of points). Also observe that $(\pi_* O_{\widetilde X})^{\*} = \pi_* (O_{\widetilde X}^{\*})$. Thus by Hartshorne Chapter III, Exercise 4.5 (which works on arbitrary ringed spaces), we see that $$ \text{Pic}(X, \pi_* O_{\widetilde X}) \cong H^1(X, (\pi_* O_{\widetilde X})^*). $$ Combining with the isomorphisms already written, we obtain: $$ \text{Pic}(\widetilde X, O_{\widetilde X}) \cong \text{Pic}(X, \pi_* O_{\widetilde X}) \cong H^1(X, (\pi_{\*} O_{\widetilde X})^*) \cong H^1(X, \pi_{\*} (O_{\widetilde X}^{\*})) $$

Do you have a step by step guide on how to upload/download points/wayponts and polylines/routes from a gps?
Regards Christo
Do you have a step by step guide on how to upload/download points/wayponts and polylines/routes from a gps?
Regards Christo
The best tool for working with GPS-data up- and downloads is GPSBabel (http://www.gpsbabel.org/). On that site you will also find examples and documentations. You can use GPSBabel also via a GUI within Quantum GIS. There are also independent GUIs, I know at least that there is one for Linux. If you're using Windows the Installer includes already a GUI (http://www.gpsbabel.org/download.html).
DNR Garmin is free, and it does both tasks (among others). Additionally, if you look around the site, you can find out how to accomplish both with this package. One thing that's very important is that you set the Datum & Zone in DNR Garmin before you tranfer your data. This software also allows you to work with many file formats and has a few other nice functions as well. The nicest things about this package (besides being free) is that it's easy to learn & use.
The comments & questions raised by the other users are quite valid. Some additional details would be helpful in our efforts to assist you. Depending which GPS unit you are using and which software package you need to interface with, DNR Garmin may or may not not be a fit for your needs. I found another link HERE that outlines the compatible software environments as well as some of the known issues. It was last updated 3/5/2012, so this is very current information. It's a very simple task you're trying to accomplish. With a little reading, I'm sure you can sort it out in less than 1 hour.
Best of luck & hope this helps.
I use GPS Babel and EasyGPS. Both are free. GPS Babel allows you not only download/upload, but also may conversions that I use often, like gpx to csv, kml etc. Works in Windows, linux and mac. Easy GPS has a more polished interface, supports a variety of gps units but only works in windows. You can only save as gpx. The GUI allows you to manipulate you information in an easy way, in order to edit (points tracks routes), delete (points tracks routes), create (points routes).

News Corp. Says Publishing Unit Lost Money
News Corp. said the publishing company it plans to spin off incurred losses last fiscal year and in the most recent quarter.
The media conglomerate, which plans to separate its entertainment businesses from its publishing businesses next year, said the publishing company had a net loss of $2.08 billion in the year through June 30.
In the first quarter of fiscal 2013, ended Sept. 30, the publishing company had a net loss of $92 million compared with a net profit of $38 million a year earlier.
The losses were mainly due to previously disclosed impairment and restructuring charges, which totaled $2.8 billion in fiscal 2012 and $115 million in the first quarter. But the financial statements for the publishing company, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission early Friday, showed that declines in advertising also affected results.
The publishing company's overall earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization dropped to $782 million in fiscal 2012 from $1.2 billion in fiscal 2011, partly due to a 19% drop in Ebitda at the company's news and information services.
The segment includes the company's newspapers, such as The Wall Street Journal, the New York Post, the Times of London and The Australian. The division is by far the biggest part of the new company.
Its results were hurt partly by lower advertising and circulation revenues at Australian newspapers as well as the impact of the closure of the News of the World newspaper in the U.K. Costs related to a U.K. phone-hacking investigation, which sparked the closure of the paper, also hurt the publishing company's overall Ebitda, the filing said.
Read the Filing
The drop in advertising revenue also caused the publishing company's operations to use more cash than they generated in the quarter, unlike the year-earlier period, the filing said.
The filing noted that News Corp.'s newspaper business has been hurt by broader industry trends, as readers and advertisers have defected to the Internet from print media in recent years.
Those trends pose challenges for the new company, separated off from the much bigger entertainment businesses which will take the Fox Group name. The News Corp. name will stay with the publishing company.
As part of the bigger company, "we were able to enjoy certain benefits from Parent's operating diversity and access to capital for investments, which benefits will no longer be available to us after we separate," the filing said.
News Corp. has said it plans for the publishing company to have more cash than debt, although Friday's filing didn't disclose final details of the expected cash position. As of Sept. 30 the publishing company had $1.01 billion in cash.
The filing said the publishing company expects to continue to evaluate potential acquisitions and sales of certain businesses. While the filing didn't mention plans for a dividend, the company plans to pay one, according to a person familiar with the matter.
The publishing company's new chief executive, Robert Thomson, who is now The Wall Street Journal's managing editor, will earn a salary of $2 million a year and a performance-based bonus with a $2 million target, the filing said.

Carla Bustamante has worked in management and as an instructor of entrepreneurship and accounting at her alma mater in Chile, Adolfo Ibáñez University. But to become part of the research community that represents her longtime aspirations in academia, she has come to the University of Colorado Boulder.
Bustamante is working toward a doctoral degree at the University of Colorado Boulder in strategic, organizational and entrepreneurial studies through the Leeds School of Business. She received a Fulbright scholarship for the program from the U.S. government's flagship exchange program promoting international graduate study, research and teaching opportunities.
Bustamante says her time in the business world, developing sales at an international courier service and a building supply company, helped prompt her interest in studying the psychological and behavioral aspects of entrepreneurship. Her current focus of research is how stress impacts entrepreneurs' well-being and venture performance. She says CU-Boulder offers a perfect environment for pursuing research.
"In Chile, most of the universities are practitioner oriented and not really research oriented," said Bustamante. "Here, it's completely different. I came here because I wanted to know about research, so this is the perfect place."
Since settling at CU-Boulder, Bustamante has been impressed by the support services and conveniences offered to students, including get-togethers hosted by the Office of International Education. The well-rounded learning environment enhances opportunities for academic achievement, she says.
"I think that CU-Boulder is a pretty special place where most people can find an ideal environment for study," said Bustamante. "I feel that my life is in an equilibrium more than ever. I have a nice and big library, and next to it is the gym, and I live on campus, which is unheard of in Chile."
Bustamante lives in family housing with her eight-year-old son, and calls it the most diverse place in Boulder. Her neighbors hail from all over the United States as well as Mexico, Peru, Europe and Asia. She even found a group of single mothers with whom she coordinates carpooling their children to and from elementary school.
Bustamante anticipated that her biggest challenge would be bringing her son with her, but it turned out to be keeping up with quickly paced classroom discussions in English. Another challenge has been watching major events in Chile from afar, such as the earthquake that struck the country last Feb. 27.
"I was so concerned, waiting for news of my family members, many of whom live in Concepción, that I forgot my own birthday on March 1," she said.
Her uncle lost his house in the disaster, but her family was otherwise unharmed.
After completing her doctoral program, Bustamante plans to return to Chile, where she already has a teaching position waiting for her at her alma mater. There she will continue to research entrepreneurship, collecting data from developing countries, and writing and publishing papers. Most of all, Bustamante says her goals include maintaining her academic contacts made while at CU-Boulder, and going abroad again after a few years.
A total of 12 Fulbright students are at CU-Boulder this year. In addition, five CU-Boulder students received Fulbright scholarships to study at other campuses across the globe during the 2010-11 school year.
The combined number of international students and scholars at CU-Boulder, through an array of programs, is 2,050, putting the campus over the halfway point to reaching its five-year goal of bringing the international population to 2,500.

I have an array of dimension 5. But, I can't figure out how to visualize that array?
int[][][][][] array = new int[4][4][4][6][2].
Is there a good way to visualize arrays with dimension counts of 3 or more?
closed as not a real question by Steven A. Lowe, Walter, Dynamic, World Engineer♦, gnat Dec 23 '12 at 20:37
It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, visit the help center.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
A 2d array of 3d cubes would visualize it, although there's no good general way to show all the data at once in any meaningful way.
I don't think it makes sense to visualize array in any sort of real 'spatial' sense. Ultimately, it's all getting mapped to 'flat' memory addresses.
If you really had to do it - maybe something like this?
Still, I'd just avoid trying to think of it as anything physical. Because....well, it isn't.
If you think of it as an array of arrays (...of arrays...) you can describe any nd array.
A two dimensional array is just an array where each element represent it's own array.
"Visualizing" beyond 3 dimensions is very difficult, if not impossible to do spatially (although I have friends who swear they can do 4). But if you want a good idea of how to think of a 5d or even n-d matrix represents data, think of an html source tree. You have:
Think of each level of multi-D array access as an address with meaning that leads to something specific.
This could represent whatever's at the space coords x-0, y-1, z-7.
But nobody said it had to be spatial. It could also be what you get when you select choice 0 on the first menu, 1 on the second menu and 7 on the next.
Multi-D arrays are ultimately simply about using arrays to create chained numeric mappings to specific values. In the end it's always only the last array in the chain that actually holds values rather than arrays. The indeces can have any meaning we want to give them.
If you look for a graphical way to represent it in a 3D space what @whatsisname said is the solution. Or the other way around: a cube in which each element is a matrix. It depends on what your data represents.
If you just want to check the data, an expandable 5-level tree should do just fine.
That really depends on the content of cells. But if you really want to visualize the content, you don't need to see at once 5D array of high precision values.
Define few (2-5) efficiently different ranges to where could belong values. And make 2 of your dimensions as x and y, and other three - interpret as colors - R,G,B. And in every point (x,y,r,g,b) you can have a value of the range. Of course, a looker needs time to understand the image, but he would need it for every sort of 5D image.


text: I can't really say too much about this fairly new internet meme because there isn't a clear story out there that can really be considered accurate.

This is going to be a lesson on "how to draw Le Lenny", step by step which is a meme that has been in circulation since November 18 of this year. The face is a very simple gesture to recreate, and it's cute too. This is going to be a rather simple to lesson to complete because drawing Le Lenny is all lines. Peace out people and enjoy!

I'm afraid you've provided me with yet another example of rose-colored hindsight, Amy, plus a little example of the subtleties of "what a difference a decade makes". Actors were indeed able to afford and manage a rent-controlled apartment in the 1970s with a supplement of waiter wages. By the mid-1970s, though, dancers were already taking more and more classes and becoming members of small performing ensembles at a higher rate than ever before. Restaurants were loth to hire dancers because most of their time was already spoken for, and if and when they did show up on time, they were half-dead. Actors and singers had it easier. At least their schedules were more predictable, and they weren't likely to have hurt themselves during their chosen vocational hours, so that they could still wait tables!
Even with rent control, the dancer was not so fortunate, and the days of the sixties, when a dancer COULD pull off an apartment in Christopher Street and did have the time to use for a second job, were over by the seventies.
Ballet dancers now are availing themselves of college and university educations more than ever before. It's just that they're doing it after their performing careers have started to wind down as part of Career Transition for Dancers. You will always have the mind; you will not long have the body for ballet!

Mel, restaurants may have prefered actors & singers, but I knew many many many dancers & choreographers who were waiters & waitresses & bartenders. True, few of my friends could afford a space as posh as Christopher Street, I meant merely a place somewhere on Manhattan isle, not the west village... although some were there, more often the upper west side, spanish harlem, alphabet city, soho, etc. They were much too late for rent control, but rent stablization was still available... and regarding always having the mind... there's something that seems to happen to dancers when they drop out of school... I don't know what it is... but the pre-professional dancers all seemed to be top students with very high grades... I didn't run into the "dumb dancer" stereotypes until the professional level and then mostly in ballet... it's as if they decided they'd never have to think again, or they weren't socializing with intellectuals or what... I don't know, but there definitely is a dumb dancer type out there and it is very sad... 4 years seems like a terribly long time to a young person, but in retrospect... I wonder how many of those dancers who went to college and went on to a professional career regret having done so before their career instead of afterwards? (although hopefully they have no compunctions about going back to university afterward either).
I really resent being told my personal experience is some rosy colored recollection. It wasn't all that rosy, as I recollect.
