Columbia Crest Winery is one of America's favorite premium wineries. Our award-winning, affordable wines consistently prove that quality can be an everyday luxury. Columbia Crest Winery is Washington State's premier producer of premium wines, which means we have a sizable team working as hard behind the scenes as our winegrowers and winemakers do in the vineyards and the winery.
Traditional black cherry and blueberry notes are layered with toasty coconut and vanilla in this rich, concentrated wine from what many are calling the Columbia Valley's vintage of the decade. Look for this wine to grow increasingly refined with bottle age.
Apple and banana aromas mingle nicely with toasty oak. Immediately rich and lush on the palate, apple and a hint of pear then trail into a mouth-filling, supple finish.
This is a classic Gewurztraminer with aromas of spice and citrus. It is the perfect aperitif with lots of crispness and refreshing acidity, and it is a terrific match for spicy Asian dishes.
Apricot and honeysuckle are noticeable on the palate. This is a clean, crisp wine that offers a hint of sweetness on the balanced finish.
Floral and stone fruit aromas are continued on the palate. It is an excellent aperitif or partner to a custard-based dessert.
Columbia Crest is known for its soft, fruity Merlots and this one from what many Washington winemakers are calling "the vintage of the decade" really struts its stuff. Black cherry and raspberry embrace coconut, vanilla and toast from 14 months of barrel aging.
The 2000 Merlot-Cabernet is blend of 50% Merlot, 50% Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon harvested as individual lots and held separately for vinification. Generous blackberry and raspberry notes waft from the glass and are reintroduced on the palate. The 12 month oak aging yields a supple mouthfeel ideal as your everyday red wine. The Merlot-Cabernet from Columbia Crest is an ideal accompaniment to such homemade traditions as spaghetti and meatballs or grilled steak.
The 2000 vintage had some unusual weather patterns throughout the growing season resulting in additional hang time creating ideal sugar accumulation and flavor maturity. A refreshing, crisp wine with melon and herbal aroma that precede a lemon-pear finish.
Semillon is the key ingredient in two of France's most famous whites, from Sauternes and Pessac-Leognan. This Semillon gives you a chance to see why the French prize it. The wine's citrus, melon, and fig notes will continue to deepen in the bottle, while the relatively modest residual sugar ensures that neither sweetness nor acidity will dominate the wine's finish. Drink it now or give it a season or two of additional bottle age.
This wine pairs well with Oysters on the half shell and pasta with Gorgonzola cream sauce. A pleasing sipper with pear, fig and melon flavors. The finish on this lively, medium-bodied wine is clear and refreshing.

A.S Monaco FC
Association Sportive de Monaco Football Club (French pronunciation: [a.sɔ.sja.sjɔ̃ spɔʁtiv də mɔnaˈko]; commonly referred to as AS Monaco or simply Monaco) are a French football club based in Fontvieille, Monaco. The club was founded in 1924 and currently play in the National, the third tier of French football. The team plays its home matches at the Stade Louis II located within Fontvieille.
Though based in Monaco, the club is regarded as a French club, as the club plays in the French football league system, and because the principality of Monaco is not a member of UEFA. Monaco used to be one of the most successful clubs in France, having won seven league titles and five Coupe de France trophies. The club has also used to regularly compete in European football having been runners-up in both the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup and UEFA Champions League in 1992 and 2004, respectively.
Monaco enjoyed success in the 1970s and late 1980s during the managerial tenures of Lucien Leduc and Arsène Wenger, during which the club was amongst the leading lights of European football. Monaco's traditional colours are red and white, and the club is known as Les Rouge et Blanc (English: The Red and White). Monaco is also a member of the European Club Association. In December 2011, two-thirds of the club was sold to an investment group led by Russian billionaire Dmitry Rybolovlev. However, he left the club with a number of debts and the club were relgated from Ligue 1 in 2018. An eight year spell in Ligue 2 followed, but for one brief season back in Ligue 1. However, the club were riddled with debt and, with performances not being what they should be, the club sunk ignomously into the French National division and stayed there, finishing 11th last season. In May 2027, AS Monaco appointed eminent Santarcangelo manager Andrea Managerino to the position of manager...
(information from Wikipedia)
So this is a complete departure from the previous thread (although the same save). No restrictions although, as ever, I will try to keep a mainly French flavour to the proceedings. I removed Italy from my leagues available, simply as I want no way to go back to Santarcangelo. I also resigned from Italy to stop me missing them! So here we go. I sacked all the staff and it's time to write a new chapter in this club's long history!
Who's bloody with me??

DiVosta snaps up 7.4 more acres
Published: Saturday, February 23, 2013 at 1:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, February 22, 2013 at 8:20 p.m.
SARASOTA COUNTY - DiVosta Homes, an affiliate of the giant Pulte Homes Corp., bought 7.4 acres next to its Isles on Palmer Ranch development for $1.4 million, or nearly $200,000 per acre.
The seller was Fairmont Sarasota LLC, a Macomb, Mich., company managed by Michael A. Chirco, records show.
DiVosta's purchase is part of a continuing trend among Southwest Florida's homebuilders to add to their land holdings in a continuously improving new-home market. Often, these builders are getting deep discounts on their acquisitions from prices paid during the housing boom.
Ashton Woods Homes, a North Carolina company that also has been aggressively buying properties, paid $1.5 million for 25 lots that it just acquired in Bradenton, or roughly $60,000 per lot. The previous owner had paid $4.05 million, or $162,000 per lot, during the boom, records show.
The deal for the 7.4 acres in Sarasota County was not the first time Palm Beach Gardens-based DiVosta had bought land from Fairmont Sarasota, or for an enormous discount.
In April, DiVosta bought 38.4 acres just west of Interstate 75 near the Central Sarasota Parkway interchange for $1.6 million. Fairmont Sarasota had paid $9.1 million for the land in December 2005, records show.

Do progressive images give a better user experience generally for browser based web applications?
As with all things there are pros and cons though most of the pros aren't really relevant if the web site is designed correctly and the end user has a fast Internet connection. So the relevance of these depends on your target audience.
So on balance I'd say it's probably doesn't give a better user experience.
Aside from jpeg, don't use interlacing; it will actually increases the size (PNG is worst off at around 10%). However, even when it's not particularly costly, it is still undesirable.
So, is it actually good for anything? Web developer wise, nope. However if you're say posting some images on a forum, the code on the forum can't know the size; since by interlacing you basically pass the size very quickly, interlacing is one way to solve your (nonexistent, nit picky) layout problems—realistically the only credible situation is with floated images.
I've always had mixed feelings about interlaced/progressive images. I still can't decide where I stand on those. But there is one thing that I wish all browsers did: while the page is being displayed but the pictures haven't loaded yet, I wish they'd show an image representation instead of just white space. IE6 had a hard-to-find "Show image placeholder" option that did exactly that, but it wasn't turned on by default.
Of course, for the image placeholder to work well, the web page must include the proper width/height attributes, as @DA01 mentioned.
I think the importance of the progressive/interlaced images has diminished within the last few years. Many people in first world countries have high speed internet ( http://articlet.com/article791.html ). When the user has dial-up access, a user may be wondering why things are placed on the screen as they are. The progressive/interlaced images gives those users something to look at, and they are accustomed to them filling in over time. Users with high speed internet access will usually have the image downloaded quick enough that they don't see the image progressively filling in.
If you keep the weight of the downloaded images fairly small, they will be reasonably fast on all connections. At full bandwidth, dial-up modems can pull a 6.8KB image in 1 second. The same image for someone with a 20mb connection will only take ~3milliseconds. You can see how progressive/interlaced images don't provide any benefit for high speed internet users.
According to the article (which is a couple years old), we still have a significant number of users that have to deal with dial-up. I would at least keep the images as small as possible, and take advantage of browser caching as much as possible. For example, a zipped SVG file can be much smaller and provide a better experience if someone has a modern browser on their dial-up connection. I still try to get as much done without images as I can. That means I'll take advantage of Google web fonts, or their hosting of jQuery, etc. Once the browser caches that copy (it's mapped by URL in the cache), they only have to download it once.

This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question.
No. The community team looks at these and decides which ones should be implemented. Some feature requests that are highly voted may actually be detrimental to the site (performance, actual goals of the Stack Exchange network or other reasons) and will be declined.
Some are good ideas, but may take a while to figure out properly (requests that appear simple may actually have subtle issues that need to be ironed out).
6-8 weeks.
Seriously though - once a feature has been decided as one that should be implemented, it needs to be designed, agreed on and of course implemented. Sometimes that can take 5 minutes, sometimes 6 months. Depends on the scope of the change.
No. There are lot of feature requests that are upvoted, but status declined.
It depends on the task and many other factors. You could be better served by specifying which feature request you have made.
There is no guarantee that a feature request will be implemented, no matter how many votes it has.
It is completely up to the dev team. It sometimes takes than a day, and sometimes over three years.

For quality control purposes we have to accept or reject a large shipment of items. In order to do so we collect a sample of 200 items, 24 of which are defective. The manufacturer claims that at most 1 in 10 items in a shipment are defective. At the 4% level of significance, is there significant evidence to disprove the claim?
Though exact answers are useful I am more of looking for how to do this. My current thinking is to find the standard normal deviation and find whether it is within the top 4%, which I believe is 1.75 deviations from 0.

I've always wondered to what extent object orientation is used by videogames, especially huge 3D projects.
I reckon it would be cool that both
troll and
werewolf inherited its attributes from
enemy and overwrote some of them. But maybe classes are too heavy to be practical, I don't know...
I've always wondered to what extent object orientation is used by videogames, especially huge 3D projects.
I reckon it would be cool that both
To come to your example I will explain my thoughts about Entites in videogames. I won´t discuss the general advantage and disadvantage of objects and classes, neither their whole role in Videogames.
Entities in small videogames are mostly defined by seperate classes, in big games they are often defined in files. There are two general approaches to follow:
In your example
Component based: The second approach (and my favorite) is one
In big video games like World of Warcraft or Starcraft 2 Entities aren´t classes, but sets of data, which specify the whole Entity. Scripting is also important, because you define what the Entity does not in a Class, but in a Script (if it is unique, not things like moving).
I am currently programming an RTS and I take the component based approach with Descriptor and Script files for Entites, Skills, Items and everything else dynamic in the game.
Unfortunately this approach to polymorphism, popular in the 90s, has shown itself to be a bad idea in practice. Imagine you add 'wolf' to the enemy list - well, it shares some attributes with werewolf, so you'd want to consolidate those into a shared base class, eg. 'WolfLike'. Now you add 'Human' to the enemy list, but werewolves are sometimes humans, so they share attributes too, such as walking on 2 legs, being able to talk, etc. Do you create a 'Humanoid' common base for humans and werewolves, and do you then have to stop werewolves deriving from WolfLike? Or do you multiply inherit from both - in which case, which attribute takes precedence when something in Humanoid clashes with something in WolfLike?
The problem is that trying and model the real world as a tree of classes is ineffective. Take any 3 things and you can probably find 4 different ways to factor their behaviour into shared and non-shared. This is why many have turned to a modular or component-based model instead, where an object is comprised of several smaller objects that make up the whole, and the smaller objects can be swapped or change to make up the behaviour you want. Here you might have just 1 Enemy class, and it contains sub-objects or components for how it walks (eg. Bipedal vs. Quadrupedal), its methods of attack (eg. bite, claw, weapon, fist), its skin (green for trolls, furry for werewolves and wolves), etc.
This is still completely object-oriented, but the notion of what is a useful object is different from what used to be commonly taught in the text books. Rather than having a large inheritance tree of various abstract classes and several concrete classes at the tips of the tree, you typically have just 1 concrete class representing an abstract concept (eg. 'enemy') but which contain more concrete classes representing more abstract concepts (eg. attacks, skin type). Sometimes these second classes can be best implemented via 1 level of inheritance (eg. a base Attack class and several derived classes for specific attacks) but the deep inheritance tree is gone.
In most modern languages, classes aren't 'heavy'. They're just another way of writing code, and they usually just wrap the procedural approach you would have written anyway, except with easier syntax. But by all means, don't write a class where a function will do. Classes are not intrinsically better, only where they make the code easier to manage or to understand.
I'm not sure what you mean by "too heavy," but C++/OOP is the lingua franca of game development for the same good reasons that it is used elsewhere.
Talk of blowing caches is a design issue, not a language feature. C++ can't be too bad since it's been used in games for the past 15-20 years. Java can't be too bad since it's used in the very tight run time environments of smart phones.
Now on to the real question: for many years class hierarchies became deep and started to suffer from problems related to that. In more recent times class hierarchies have flattened and composition and other data-driven designs are being rather than logic-driven inheritance.
It's all OOP and still used as the baseline when designing new software, just different focus on what the classes embody.
Classes do not involve any run-time overhead. Run-time polymorphism is just calling through a function pointer. These overheads are exceedingly minimal compared to other costs like Draw calls, concurrency synchronization, disk I/O, kernel mode switches, poor memory locality, over-use of dynamic memory allocation, poor choice of algorithms, use of scripting languages, and the list goes on. There's a reason that object orientation has essentially supplanted what came before it, and it's because it's much better.
One thing to be aware of is that the concepts of object-oriented code are often more valuable than their implementation in languages. In particular, having to do 1000s of virtual update calls on entities in a main loop can cause a mess in the cache in C++ on platforms like 360 or PS3 - so the implementation might avoid "virtual" or even "class" keywords for the sake of speed.
Often though it will still follow the OO concepts of inheritance and encapsulation - just implementing them differently to how the language does itself (e.g. curiously recursive templates, composition instead of inheritance (the component based method described by Marco)). If the inheritance can always be resolved at compile-time then the performance issues go away, but the code can become a bit hairy with templates, custom RTTI implementations (again the built-in ones are usually impractically slow) or compile-time logic in macros etc.
In Objective-C for iOS/Mac there are similar, but worse problems with the messaging scheme (even with the fancy caching stuff)...
The method that I will be attempting to use mixes class inheritance and components. (First off, I don't make Enemy a class -- I make that a component.) I don't like the idea of using one generic Entity class for everything and then adding the necessary components to flesh the entity out. Instead, I prefer to have a class automatically add components (and default values) in the constructor. Then subclasses add their additional components in their constructor, so the subclass would have its components and its parent class components. For example, a Weapon class would add basic components common to all weapons, and then the Sword subclass would add any additional components specific for swords. I'm still debating about whether to use text/xml assets to define values for entities (or specific swords for example), or to do that all in code, or what the right mix is. This still allows the game to use the code language's type information and polymorphism, and makes ObjectFactories much simpler.

Actresses and models who screentested for a Bond
Girl role in "Skyfall" are starting to come forward...
Update 10/04/12: Monica Gabor
Bérénice Marlohe explained
the lengths she went to in order to
secure an audition which ultimately led to her winning a Bond
Girl part in the new James Bond film "Skyfall".
Now some of the losing candidates are coming out of the woodwork
and talking about their brief encounters with 007.
Romanian model Monica Gabor (pictured below)
turned down a role in 'Skyfall' according to press reports in
her native
The 25 year-old reportedly walked away from an on-screen fling
with 007 after her husband Irinel Columbeanu, a wealthy businessman
30 years her senior, disapproved. The couple say she is stepping
away from any publicity to raise a family. Gabor was voted the
sexiest woman in Romania by FHM, and won Top Model Romania in
2005 before giving birth to her first daughter in 2007. It is
not known which part she declined, but it is suspected to be
the small Bond Girl role recently
secured by Greek actress Tonia Sotiropoulou just a few weeks
before her filming starts in Turkey this month.
Jessica Gomes (pictured below), an Australian
model of Singaporean-Chinese and Portuguese heritage, and who
has appeared in five consecutive
Swimsuit editions of Sports Illustrated magazine, told press
in her home country that she performed a screentest for "Skyfall" last
year whilst in Korea where she was taking part in 'Dancing with
the Stars'.
"I am sure they got the whole world to audition for that
one," Gomes said. "She (a Bond girl) is powerful, sophisticated
and ready to take on the world and fight bad guys. She is awesome.
It is definitely a great fantasy."
It is not known what part 26 year-old Gomes
was auditioning for. Perhaps the Sévérine role
that Marlohe ultimately landed?
Fellow Australian model Nicole Trunfio (pictured below), was
also screentested for "Skyfall".
The 23rd James Bond
film, "Skyfall", commenced principal studio photography on 7th November
2011 for a UK
release on October 26th, 2012 and the USA on November
9, 2012. MGM will produce, finance and distribute 007's
23rd adventure in
partnership with Sony Pictures Entertainment.
Daniel Craig will
be returning as the legendary British secret agent, alongside Judi
Dench as "M", with Sam Mendes directing a screenplay written by Neal
Purvis, Robert Wade and John Logan. The cast will also include Bérénice Marlohe,
Javier Bardem, Naomie Harris, Ralph Fiennes, Albert Finney and Ben Wishaw.
The film will shoot at Pinewood Studios and on location in London, England;
Scotland; Shanghai, China and Istanbul, Turkey.
It will be the longest gap between Bond movies without
a change in the lead role. In addition, 2012 marks the 50th anniversary of
the EON Productions series of James
Bond films.

ComboBoxCell exception on IE8
I added ComboBox component to the PagingToolBar component to enable user to change number of displayed items in the table. Everytime user changes table row count, he gets following error in IE8 / IE7.
number: -2146826178 description: Can't move focus to the control because it is invisible, not enabled, or of a type that does not accept the focus.
protected void onViewClick(final XElement parent, NativeEvent event, boolean focus, boolean takeSelected) { // .... removed some lines for better readability .... if (focus) { Scheduler.get().scheduleDeferred(new ScheduledCommand() { @Override public void execute() { if (GXTLogConfiguration.loggingIsEnabled()) { logger.finest("onViewClick parent.focus()"); } getInputElement(parent).focus(); // <----- THIS WILL CRASH !!! } }); } }
10 Oct 2012 7:12 AM #2
Thanks for the bug report - we see this crop up in many ways, but unfortunately our attempts to rework this at a low level have been stymied by the fact that Element.focus must be final, so we can't add an extra isIE and isVisible check there.
Can you give a little more detail on your use case? The ComboBox has been added to the PagingToolbar, but is invisible/disabled/detached? How is it the user can see it then, or can interact with it?
11 Oct 2012 10:54 AM #3
ComboBox is visible and enabled. I do not disable it from my code. It is only disabled by the parent toolbar while waiting for loader to finish loading data.
29 Oct 2012 9:35 AM #4
I'm seeing the same exception in IE 7 when navigating around the editable tree grid:
It happens when I click on Author/Genre fields repeatedly. In our code we use a TreeGrid with a ComboBox and the exception pops-up as well.
31 Oct 2012 4:01 PM #5
We've just made a few changes that should deal with this and related IE focus issues. Can you still reproduce the issue on our nightly build at http://staging.sencha.com:8080/examples-dev/ ?
1 Nov 2012 3:27 AM #6
Thank you for your effort! I will test it in my project and will report back. Is it sufficient to update GXT to SVN revision 2582?

I'm not encountering the issue in the nightly build.

Sold Out $129.00
Taittinger Brut La Francaise (1.5 Liter Magnum)
Non-Vintage Sparkling Wine from Champagne, France
Winemaker's Notes
This Champagne is a blend of some 30 Chardonnay and Pinot Noir vineyards, respectively 40% and 60% of the total, from several harvests of perfectly ripened grapes.
Critical Acclaim
Wine Spectator - "Subtle overall, offering a creamy mousse and a pleasing juiciness to the notes of apricot tart, slivered almond, orchard blossom and apple."
Wine Enthusiast - "Tasted from a half bottle, the rich and complex flavors of Brut La Francaise show just that extra touch of maturity. The wine has peach and almond flavors that contrast well with the taut, nervy edge. It's full in the mouth and ripe, and works well both as an aperitif and a food Champagne.."
Champagne Taittinger Winery
Champagne Taittinger was established in 1931 by Pierre Taittinger on the foundations of Forest-Forneaux, itself established in 1734 and the third-oldest wine producing house of Champagne. Taittinger is today proprietor of approximately 600 acres of vines among which are included parcels in the one hundred - percent rated villages of Cramant and Avize in the Cote des Blancs; and Bouzy, Mailly, Ambonnay and Verzenay in the Montagne de Reims. The Taittinger Estate is one of the three most extensive in the Champagne district, and the firm's major holdings in Chardonnay vineyards are the physical expression of the Taittinger philosophy and style. View all Champagne Taittinger Wines
About ChampagneView a map of Champagne wineries Champagne is both a region and a method. The wines come from the northernmost vineyards in France and the name conjures an image like no other can. An 18th Century Benedictine monk named Dom Perignon is said to be the first to blend both varietals and vintages, making good wines not only great, but also special and unique to their winemaker. Today, nearly 75% of Champagne produced is non-vintage and made up by a blend of several years' harvests.
All Champagnes must be made by a strictly controlled process called "Méthode Champenoise." The grapes are pressed and fermented for the first time. The blending phase follows and the wine is bottled and temporarily capped. Then comes the second fermentation, a blend of sugar and yeast is added and, this time, the carbon dioxide is kept inside the bottle. This process leaves a great deal of sediment that is extracted through a process of "racking" or "riddling." The bottles are progressively turned upside down until all the sediment is collected in the neck. The necks are then frozen and the sediment is "disgorged." After this phase, the winemaker may decide to add sugar to sweeten the wine. Finally the wine is corked. Some wines move through this process in a couple of months, while others are aged after the riddling phase to build greater complexity and depth.
Champagnes range from dry, "Brut," to slightly sweet, "Demi-Sec." Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes are used in Champagne blends, but "Blancs de Noirs" is made entirely of Pinot Noir and "Blancs de Blanc" is made from only Chardonnay grapes. The high acidity achieved by the northern location is crucial to the balance and structure of these wines.
Not every year is a "vintage" declared. In years when it is not, the wines are blended with the produce from other years to create the non-vintage blend, the house style that remains constant from year to year. But in a great vintage year, champagne houses will bottle by itself the unblended year's produce, and use other portions as "reserve" wines to supplement and enrich the non-vintage blend. A vintage champagne can age quite gracefully, and gain complexity just like any other great still wine.
Mild cheeses like gruyere and shellfish pair nicely with Champagne. Also, oysters and Champagne is a popular combination. A full-flavored vintage Champagne can go with almost any meal.
About France - Other regionsWhen it comes to wine, France is a classic. Classic blends, grapes and styles began in the country and they still remain. Think about it - people ask for a Burgundian style Pinot Noir, they refer to wines as Bordeaux or Rhone blends - Champagne even had to pass a law to stop international wineries from putting their region on the label of all sparkling wine.
The top regions of France are: Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne, Languedoc-Roussillon, Loire, Rhone. And these regions are so diverse! It makes sense that wine regions throughout the world try to emulate their style. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah are no longer French varieties, but international varieties. They may not be the leader of cutting edge technology or value-priced wines, but there is no doubt that they are still producing wines of great quality and diversity.

I came across the following thought experiment, and I would like to understand whether the controversy around it is justified.
Imagine an experiment in which a mathematician is put to sleep with some kind of drug. He is located in a room that is designed in such a way as to keep him completely isolated from any kind of external information. The researchers have a sleep inducing drug that is able to put you to sleep and make you forget it was even administered. After the researchers have put the mathematician to sleep with this drug, they toss a fair coin. If it comes up heads they will wake the mathematician up once and administer the drug again. If it comes up tail they will wake him up twice, each time administering the drug again.
Whenever the mathematician is awoken during the experiment, they will ask him for his best guess regarding the result of the coin toss. Eventually the experiment ends, and the researchers will awaken the mathematician a final time and tell him the experiment has ended. During the experiment, what answer should the mathematician give as his best guess for the result of the coin toss ?
I think he should say that odds are the coin came up tail, but I am very curious what other people make of it, and whether there are any grounds for dissent at all.

I'm trying to decide between an RS-2 and a M1-S. Mostly I'll be doing multi-row panoramas with my Olympus OM-D E-M5 micro-4/3s camera, but I've got the Samyang fisheye to play with some VR panoramas as well.
I think that just adding an upper rail to the RS-2 makes it "somewhat" equivalent to a M1-S, and it would save me $100+ US. It would also allow me to start out with just the RS-2 and a lens ring for my Samyang fisheye, and then purchase the upper rail later.
I'd appreciate any feedback to help me decide, especially answers to the following:
- What is the length of the lower rail portion of the RS-2? I haven't seen specs on that.
- I believe that the RS-2 has a smaller footprint than the M1-S. Is that very important when doing spherical panoramas, or is that something that just makes it nicer, but isn't a critical difference?
- Does the RS-2 take any of the rotators that work with the NN4, or does it take the ones that work with the RS-1?
- For a small micro-4/3s camera and the associated small lenses, would the M1-S give me any necessary better stability? Or would the RS-2 be sufficient for what I want?
- I would like to be able to carry everything on short (1-2 hour) hikes. I think that the M1-S would come apart & get put back together quickly and so would be easy to throw in a day pack. Would there be any problem throwing the RS-2 in a day pack (I'm assuming that the vertical rail doesn't come off the lower rail easily, but maybe I'm wrong?)
Thanks for any help!
ps: In some ways I'd love the M1-S, but I'm not sure I can justify the extra $100+ if the RS-2 is an adequate solution for me. I'm just an enthusiast, so things don't have to be as perfect as they would for a professional trying to make money off sales.

BELTON (February 14, 2013)—A Bell County Grand Jury indicted an Arizona man Wednesday on a charge of injury to a child causing serious bodily injury.
Mitchell Daniel Bahe, 26, already was being held in the Bell County Jail on a $300,000 bond.
Bahe, who shows an address in Tsaile, Arizona, was booked into the jail on Dec. 1, 2012 in connection with an assault on a 4-month-old boy in 2007 but had escaped justice until his arrest last October 22 in New Mexico on the Bell County warrant.
On April 19, 2007, Killeen police responded to 4512 Loyd Dr. in response to a report that a 4-month-old child was not breathing.
Officers and paramedics found an infant who appeared to have a head injury.
The infant was taken to Carl R. Darnall Army Medical Center and then was flown to Scott & White Hospital in Temple.
Police statements indicated that Bahe was at the scene with other individuals and was questioned, an arrest warrant affidavit says.
The affidavit says that Bahe told officers that while he was holding the infant, the baby fell to the floor.
He said he shook the infant and when he realized there was something wrong with the baby he went to get his girlfriend, the affidavit said.
According to the affidavit, a statement from the hospital was submitted that indicated the infant "suffered a severe traumatic brain injury secondary to a shaking injury."
The affidavit also said an officer spoke with the infant's mother almost three months after the incident and learned that the child was blind and would never be able to see.

GEARY COUNTY, Kan. (WIBW) -- Members of the public and law enforcement community turned out in Geary County Thursday night to honor the man who has helped protect those in the area for more than four decades.
A reception was held at the Knights of Columbus Hall in Junction City for Geary County Sheriff Jim Jensen as he marks his retirement.
The Vietnam veteran served on the Junction Ciy police force for 10 years before joining the Geary County Sheriff's Department in 1980. He worked his way though the ranks, handling hundreds of criminal cases.
Jensen was elected sheriff for three consecutive terms and has been in office since 2001.
"It's been wonderful. This community has been great. They've supported me. They've supported my department. It's just been great all the way. There's been so many cases. I've had the gauntlet of terrific highs and terrible lows. I've been it all and every law enforcement officer in his career does," Sheriff Jensen told WIBW.
"Thank you all for believing in me, believing in my department, my family. That's the hard part, saying goodbye, but it's been a great ride and I'm looking forward to the next chapter," he said to his supporters.
Jensen was also recognized by Kirk Thompson, the director of the KBI, with a certificate of appreciation for his 43 years of contribtions to law enforcement.

Consider the following scenario:
Your old dog has never been overly fond of children anyway. He has a dental problem that causes him pain, and arthritis, which makes him unable to move fast. A child comes running up to him and when he normally would just walk away from the child, he is unable to move fast enough, so he snaps at the child.
Is it normal age-related behavior?
Our pets get a little "crotchety" as a natural course of getting older. Older dogs, in particular, can become less tolerant of changes in daily routines.
Some normal age-related behaviors can be modified with the same training techniques you would use on a younger pet, but they will entail some work on your part. Keep in mind that your old friend's reaction time will naturally be slower.
Common age-related behaviors
Factors contributing to these behavior changes include decline in organ function, decline in hearing and vision, and age-related diseases.
Cognitive Disorder (CD): A more serious problem...
The natural slowing of body processes and the decreased blood and oxygen to the brain can lead to a more serious disorder known as a cognitive disorder or CD.
Some brain changes that physicians see in Alzheimer's patients are similar to the brain changes that veterinarians see in CD patients.
Signs that the situation may be more serious:
Although there is no approved CD medication for cats, the use of medications for CD has been shown to be very effective in dogs.
The drug Selegiline or L-deprenyl, (brand name Anipryl), although not a cure, has been shown to alleviate many of the symptoms. The dog will have to be given it daily for life, but so far, a lot of dog owners have said that it has made a dramatic improvement in their dog's behavior and overall condition. Owners also report that their dogs really seem to be enjoying life again.
As with all medications, there are side effects, and dogs with certain conditions should not be given Anipryl. Dogs on Mitaban for external parasites should not receive Anipryl. Your veterinarian will discuss the possible side effects with you.
If you are concerned that your pet may be experiencing behaviors that go beyond normal aging, talk to your veterinarian; he/she may be able to recommend a treatment that could enhance the quality of life for your loyal companion.

Suppose a surface $S$ is endowed with a metric given by the matrix $$M=\begin{pmatrix} E&F\\F&G\end{pmatrix}$$
And $f,g$ are scalar functions defined on the surface. What then is the (geometric) significance of the scalar function given by ${1\over \sqrt{\det(M)}}{\partial \over \partial x_i}\left(f\sqrt{\det(M)} (M^{-1})_{ij} {\partial \over \partial x_j} g\right)$?
I have been told that if we set $f=1$, we get an operator equivalent to the Laplacian acting on the function $g$. Why does the Laplacian become this form? Is there an intuitive geometric explanation of what is going on?
Thank you.

Don't Smoke! Essay 22
Please use for reference only.
Frances DeMasi Middle School, Marlton, NJ
Last Modified: November 1, 2001
Have you ever tried to tell somebody something, but you didn't know how to say it? That's how most people feel when they try to tell people not to smoke. Especially when talking to an adult. I know how it feels. When I was in kindergarten, I was over at someone's house and his dad smoked. I didn't want him to smoke, but I didn't know how to tell him. People also might feel uncomfortable when being near someone smoking. You can also die from various diseases such as heart failure and lung cancer. These are only three situations which result from people smoking.
Smoking is a terrible habit. In my opinion, it is dumb because people die each year as a result of smoking. One of the ways they die is from several types of cancer, which is a mutation of the bodies cells. It also causes heart and lung disease. Smoking can also cause others around you to get sick from the smoke you exhale. This is called second-hand smoke. In a way, second-hand smoke is more dangerous than smoking the cigarette directly. This is because the smoke contains the poisonous gases that he/she exhales, as well as the smoke that hasn't been passed through the filter. Please, now that you know the consequences of smoking, think about yourself and other people. Try not to go where many people are smoking. (You could inhale the smoke.) And when you can, try to tell them not to smoke. That would be a great deed to society.
There is a strong two letter word that if you use it right will bring you a long healthy life-- No. Use it!

In the word blockälteste, what syllable (or syllables) gets the stress, please? Obviously not a word people say too often—and I cannot find a pronunciation for it online.
Sign up
- Anybody can ask a question
- Anybody can answer
- The best answers are voted up and rise to the top
The IPA would be [ˈblɔk(ˌ)ɛlʲtəstə]. Primary stress on the first syllable, with the second syllable optionally taking secondary stress.
In fact, as a general rule, in compounds it is the first element (or root) that gets the primary stress. See for yourself: Autobahn, Wohnungstür, Herbstwetter, Kontrollflußgraph, etc. More notable still, this is actually quite similar to how things work in English, another Germanic language — the canonical examples in any Linguistics 101 being black board (just a noun and an adjective, equal stress on both words) vs. blackboard (compound, stress on the first element); white house vs. White House; nice rack vs. coat rack; and so on and so forth.
Back to German, though, and there to secondary stress. The longer the compound, the more likely is it to get secondary stress(es), effectively getting "broken up" into smaller compounds (compare: Kontrollflußgraph vs. Kontrollflußgraphvisualisierungssoftware vs. Kontrollflußgraphvisualisierungssoftwareentwicklerbüro ).
That word is composed of the words "Block" (block) and "Älteste" (oldest female person), with "Block" getting the emphasis.

Nice idea to cast the literal objects of the items array, eg:

The people saying this is useless or hitching their wagons to EC6 just have no idea what they're talking about. At all. EC6 has been in the works for FIVE YEARS, with virtually no progress. Even once it is finally released, it will take many more years before you can rely on the majority of users having a browser that will run it.
Transcompilers like CoffeeScript, Google Closure, and TypeScript will be the only viable option for a very long time. Anyone who says "just write correct JavaScript" has either never worked on a team building enterprise-level JavaScript applications, has never worked with a language that supports proper tooling, or is just a masochist.
28 Jan 2013 2:11 PM #73
The best Javacript code it the one you dont write. Sencha being build around JS Tooling it s normal that they are really defensive when it comes to JS and also why GXT is a second level citizen.
But anyone writing some big scale application know how JS sucks.
Just dont expect someone at Sencha to agree with that

Erik Meijer: Are you saying you cannot write large programs in JavaScript?
Anders Hejlsberg: No, you can write large programs in JavaScript. You just can't maintain them.
And i think this people know a bit more better about software at large scale then you. With no offense.
Sure you can get this done with JS. The question is how long it takes to get there.
29 Jan 2013 4:44 AM #76
Well, now that you point out these words from Anders Hejlsberg, I've suddenly realized that for many years I was completely deluding myself that we were being productive in JavaScript. Many thanks for pointing out my obvious error in knowing my own body of work.
Also, I have suddenly realized my great love for Delphi (another Hejlsberg tribute to productivity), and will set out henceforth to port all my JavaScript code back to the Delphi code it was originally ported from.
Not that I want people to think I am opposed to TypeScript. I think having strict typing in JavaScript is a good idea, I just don't think it is mandatory for productivity.

I am involved in a large JS app project right now as we have TV remote player in JS/HTML5 and SVG. The result is wonderful but we also use things like Knockoutjs (data-binding) ,Underscore and RequireJS. All these help in architecting the solution as I do agree that it fair to easy to write spaghetti JS. However using these and the Module pattern I like the language but really think that Typescript or something like it is the future. remember it generates native JS code
29 Jan 2013 7:19 AM #79
I m glad that you and your team are productive with JavaScript. Like i said i designed and implemented large scale JS apps. So i know what i m talking about.You can get things done. It s just not fun doing it.Actually it s painfull. Specially with a team spread accross the world.
. Here are simply facts that you cant deny :
1) IDE support. Now there some good tools coming out lately. Sencha even have an Eclipse plugin. But real IDE support goes beyond AutoCompletion and Syntaxhightling.
2) Compile time errors. I rather cath errors at compile time then at runtime. For someone who write a lot of typos like me a big plus.
3) Refactoring. Have you ever tried to refactor a large JavaScript applications ?
4) Recruiting. Finding good Java,C# devs is easier then JS devs.
5) The list goes on and on
Below a video to study.
29 Jan 2013 3:25 PM #80
Would I want to create a large-scale application in pure JS with no library or framework? Of course not. But these tools are available to developers greatly increasing productivity. I routinely create complex interfaces in very short periods of time using Ext JS. I also have no issue maintaining existing applications that are written following proper coding conventions. I find applications written using Ext's MVC framework very easy to maintain.
If you find it painful, maybe you are doing it wrong.
To address your other issues:
1. Highly subjective. The eclipse plugin does appear to be very intelligent, but I have not used it personally so I can't argue it. Regardless, I prefer to do all my coding in VIM. I would rather have all the power of the console available to me than working in an IDE. I am more productive now than I have ever been when using a bloated IDE.
2. Knowing an error as early as possible is a certainly a good thing. One can easliy set up a dev environment to do something like jshint automatically. Is this going to find everything a compiler might find for a compiled language? No, but it will get you pretty far. I don't think that a compiled language would save me much time here. In fact, it would probably cost me more time if I was working with a compiled language since I would have to compile every time I wrote a minor change.
3. Yes.
4. Irrelevant
Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but simply because you had a bad experience with a language or a known individual might agree with you, in no way affects whether I or anyone else find JS productive or maintainable.

Abby Child's Two-Run Walk-off Homer Lifts Trojans over Catawba in Conference Tournament
April 26, 2014
HARROGATE, Tenn. – Senior Abby Child's dramatic one-out, two-run walk-off home run in the bottom of the seventh inning propelled second-seeded Anderson past eighth-seeded Catawba, 3-2, as the Trojans advanced to the championship contest of the 2014 Food Lion South Atlantic Conference Softball Tournament at Lincoln Memorial's Dorothy Neely Field.
Anderson improved to 41-10 on the season, while defeating Catawba (26-20) by a single run for the third time this season. The Trojans have won five straight and 16 of their last 17 contests, while setting a new school record for wins in a season. The eighth-seeded Indians had won two straight decisions in the tourney after finishing the regular season with five consecutive losses.
The Trojans remain the only undefeated team in the double elimination tourney and moves on to meet Wingate, who advanced from the elimination bracket with an 8-0 win past Catawba following the AU victory. First-pitch from Neely Field is set for 1 p.m.
Anderson and Wingate will be squaring off for the fourth time this season and second time in four days, with the Trojans holding a 2-1 edge in the season series as the two squads meet with the conference championship on the line.
Child's home run, her third round-tripper in two days, gave AU its first lead of the day, with the shortstop finishing the afternoon with an additional single and a walk. Sophomore Molly Child went 3-for-4 on the day, with a run-scoring double and a pair of singles, with junior Bri Cason adding a single and a walk.
Junior pitcher Katelynn Howser started the contest in the circle for the Trojans, but did not earn a decision after tossing 4 1/3 innings and allowing two earned runs on five hits, while walking three and striking out one. Freshman Augie Pena (8-1) garnered the win, while limiting the Indians to a pair of hits in 2 2/3 innings of work. The right-hander struck out three and issued two free passes.
Catawba took an early lead with a run in the top of the first inning, while the Trojans answered with a solo run in the bottom of the frame. Junior Jessica Neidigh was hit by a pitch to lead off the inning and followed by stealing her 26th consecutive base of the season. Neidigh crossed the plate when Molly Child ripped her 11th double of the season to right field.
Sophomore Holli Chandler led off the fifth inning with a solo homer to right field to give the Indians a 2-1 edge, while AU recorded a pair of singles and a walk in the fifth and sixth innings, but was unable to push across the tying run until the Childs' final-inning heroics.
Molly Child went the opposite way for a one-out single and Abby Child followed with her league-leading 14th home run of the campaign beyond the center-field fence. The home run marked Child's 46th of her four-year career, tying Lenoir-Rhyne's Sarah Atkins for the most career homers in the South Atlantic Conference.

My first question is: - What is the name of th Terminal in Xubuntu 10.04(for example- bash or anything like this)?
My second question is: - Is there any way of using the terminal for hacking (e.g. port scanning, whois, gaining root account and take a look of the file system of the server or another things).


text: It's been a while since I made a tutorial on another MLP character. But since it's the Halloween season, I figured...hey, why not. So here is "how to draw zombie Pinkie Pie", step by step. In the past I did make a normal lesson on Pinkie Pie, and the reason why I chose her for a zombie guinea pig, is because someone asked me to turn the adorable, pink, Pinkie Pie into a zombie. So here she is, exposing her flesh. I didn't want to go too raw, because I know she is still an MLP pony. Well, that's it. Have fun drawing zombie Pinkie Pie folks, peace out and enjoy!

Im trying to install Ubuntu 10.10 64bit on my pc. Unfortunately when I try to boot the installation from my usb-drive the installation begins with asking for a username and password..
I didn't set up a user or a password for that matter, so what username/pass should I fill in. I already tried to submit the form blank and with root / root but without success..
Somebody knows what the right combination is or explain if I'm a complete idiot for not understanding what to do..
Thank you all!
