[FNR] Question, small bugs and to do remindes for dp5
1) How can I get index of selected item from combo box after I selected an item?
final ComboBox<State> combo = new ComboBox<State>(states, props.name()); combo.addValueChangeHandler(new ValueChangeHandler<State>() { @Override public void onValueChange(ValueChangeEvent<State> event) { //event.getValue() is ok //combo.getValue() I get always null } });
final ComboBox<State> combo = new ComboBox<State>(states, props.name()); Button button = new Button("GetValue", new ClickHandler() { @Override public void onClick(ClickEvent event) { //combo.getValue() returns selected item string, not even proper type of declared generic field } })
4) ComboBoxselect(int index) and combo.select(T item) doesn't work,
5) TabbedPanel setPlain(true) doesn't work,
6) No grid plugins (row numberer, expander, ...)

Thanks for your report. We know that there are many issues and that is also why it is still called DP (Developer Preview). We are still working on adding all the features from GXT 2. Once that is done, we will release a Beta version and fix the last remaining issues
23 Oct 2011 10:27 AM #3
Good to know that beta should have all features. It also would be nice to know what bugs do you have in your bugtracker, because it's pointles to double them on the forum. I know that users are layzy, most dont respect companys order and don't know search option, but community is also the power of the product. Please consider read only mode or web service that could expose bugs details. You could even create (or I can ) client to browse them thanks to GXT or ExtJs like you do with posts from the forum in many given examples.
Me and lot of people think that you do great job and some of us would like to help contributing usefull data, but also we dont like to do redundant work.
1 Dec 2011 1:29 PM #4
- ValueChangeHandler now gets passed correct type, not the raw text.
- event.getValue() and combo.geValue now return same value
- setForceSelection fixed.
- setEditable fixed.
- RowNumberer and RowExpander have been added.

Thinking in terms of bringing the book to life, general entertainment, cinematics, bringing characters to life, etc. What are your top ten favourite scenes, so far? Arya and Syrio #1 Slappin' Tyron slaps Joffrey and Robert slaps Cersei 8D Tyrion's 'Trial' Robert, Ned and Lancel Poor kid can't say anything right. But it's funny. Dany's Hearteating Yoren and Tyrion Again, funny. Summer saving Bran and Cat Dany and Doreah ...I'm shallow. The Tourney #2 Loras' trick and The Mountain vs The Hound. Thr Crown Viserys' actor was amazing. Also, a mention to the Night's Watch vow-taking scene and the River Playfight. I wish I could have loved The Winterfell Feast, too... But seemed a bit, cramped and pointless.

I wonder why not prevent lags by only appying advanced optional graphics stuff when the FPS are high at time. So The game could use simpler or even no shaders and skip decorative models some time.
It there an approach of dynamically calculating more or less each frame for higher FPS yet?
Is there a project using this approach yet?

Is there a link between the side-angle-side congruence of triangles and the parallel postulate? Specifically, does it follow from Euclid's first four axioms alone? In fact, does it even follow from all five?
The first 28 propositions of Euclid's geometry use the first four axioms and are theorems in both hyperbolic(many parallels through a point parallel to a given line) and euclidean geometry(one parallel through a point parallel to a given line). see the following:
The first 15 propositions of Euclid hold in Elliptic geometry(no parallels) see:
So since side angle side is proposition 4 it can hold in all three systems. But as mentioned elsewhere it is one of Hilbert's axioms that were added as part of the process of formalizing Euclid's geometry. Hilbert's book The foundations of geometry is available here:
Side-angle-side congruence is the fourth proposition of the Elements. Euclid doesn't use the fifth postulate until I.29, which is the equality of alternate interior angles.
My understanding was that SAS does not follow from the Euclid's postulates and should instead be considered an axiom itself. See Hilbert's axioms for more detail.
You don't need the parallel postulate, but you are right to be a bit worried about triangle congruences following from Euclid's axioms. The link provided by Michael Lugo explains the issue: Euclid's proof uses "superposition" but his axioms do not allow him to draw conclusions on this basis.
On reflection, SAS tells me that Euclidean geometry has a strong semi-local homogeneity, in that every neighborhood of every point is isotropically isomorphic with some neighborhood of any other point --- once you find a good way to say "neighborhood", that is.
The parallel postulate, on the other hand, can be used to construct *canonical* isomorphisms of point(ed)-neighborhoods --- by parallel translation of course; but since the constructed isomorphisms are all parallel in a good sense, we don't get the isotropy structure without SAS. (edit/add:ed): in the other direction, SAS doesn't give any canonical isomorphisms, which is just as well because hyperbolic and elliptical space both have SAS, but not the parallel postulate. (end edit)
The related postulate that Euclid states properly --- that all right angles are equal --- only gives a pointwise isotropy; it doesn't help much for segments subtended by respectively equal segments at equal angles.
Ironically, I had intentions of working the other way around. As Hugh Thomas said, Euclid used a superposition of one figure onto another to demonstrate SAS congruence. My idea was to use a superposition of one figure onto another to demonstrate the parallel postulate, as well, but it never seemed to work well enough. However, regarding what Kristal Cantwell says, using the superposition "axiom" is contrary to hyperbolic geometry, and thus should be able to restrict it to our geometry.
The proof given by Euclid is incorrect. Interestingly, I read somewhere that by using techniques used by Euclid in his Elements, it is possible to prove that every triangle is equilateral!


text: I definitely got a lot of requests for this next figure from music mania. His name is Ashley Purdy, and he is one heck of a figure to find bio information on. I have been to several different places and all I can find is the usual; his birth date, where he was born, and how old he is. Since I know that info, let me fill you in. I mean, if you're a BVB fan you should already know this stuff, but if you are one of those people that are a Black Veil Brides fan, but don't know, here you go. Ashley Purdy provides his voice talents, as well as being the bassist for the band. He was born on January 28, 1984, and if you do your math you will find that he is twenty eight years old. He is a graphic designer, and he is also really good at keeping up with his fans on both his Facebook and Twitter. Anyways, since there is nothing more to say I guess I should let you guys get busy with drawing Ashley Purdy step by step. This should be a relativity easy lesson to follow, so I hope you do well. Adios people and like always, enjoy!

The Gift of Therapy: An Open Letter to a New Generation of Therapists and Their Patients (Hardcover)
Anyone interested in psychotherapy or personal growth will rejoice at the publication of The Gift of Therapy, a masterwork from one of today's most accomplished psychological thinkers.
From his thirty-five years as a practicing psychiatrist and as an award-winning author of nonfiction and fiction, Irvin D. Yalom imparts his unique wisdom in The Gift of Therapy. This remarkable guidebook for successful therapy is, as Yalom remarks, "an idiosyncratic melange of ideas and techniques that I have found useful in my work. These ideas are so personal, opinionated, and occasionally original that the reader is unlikely to encounter them elsewhere. I selected the eighty-five categories in this volume randomly guided by my passion for the task rather than any particular order or system."
At once startlingly profound and irresistibly practical, Yalom's insights will help enrich the therapeutic process for a new generation of patients and counselors.
About the Author
Irvin D. Yalom, M.D., is the author of Love's Executioner, Momma and the Meaning of Life, Lying on the Couch, The Schopenhauer Cure, When Nietzsche Wept, as well as several classic textbooks on psychotherapy, including The Theory and Practice of Group Psychotherapy, considered the foremost work on group therapy. The Professor Emeritus of Psychiatry at Stanford University, he divides his practice between Palo Alto, where he lives, and San Francisco, California.
Praise For…
"[Yalom's] wise ideas are perfectly accessible."
-Publishers Weekly
"An absorbing guide"

Pretty awesome!
I think this is a great idea as an adult, but sadly most kids won't see it that way. I'll be sure to grab this for the PC either way though -- because the copy I have on my Android device, my PS3 and my Ipod just don't seem to be enough!
My ADA card will finally pay for itself! Go DENTISTRY!
that's pretty cool!
*Soap for cleaning the eggs off of your house not included.
Seriously though, if you give these out do yourself a favor and throw in a fun size candybar too.
This games is awesome!
Good game and a great deal. With how often this game goes on sale, free is about the only price that's still impressive.
The Kid/Tween might like this at the first house, but after he receives 10+ of these coupons instead of candy, you better bet he's going to egg your house.
great! love this!
Is this just the PC version?
This game is on like every platform you can think of.
Awesome deal either way, game is very addicting.
@stipo: The coupon says a free download for either the PC or Mac version.
@drchops: It's better then the traditional toothbrush right?
Lazy??? Skip a step. Here's a link to the PDF to print the coupons (8 per page).
Hopefully everyone will see this, since the deal goes live tomorrow.
These were a huge hit at Halloween! Of course, I wasn't that big of a jerk, I gave out candy WITH them :)

What an ignorant article. While I agree that we can't blame a victim, & in this case absolutely do not blame the victim. Ms. Williams comment is not blaming the victim, & is not poor thought process. It is something to prevent this violence. It's just like saying that while in a gang & drug infested neighborhood, a person gets mugged, or standing in the road, getting hit by a car, then criticizing a one for commenting being in that neighborhood unnecessarily or standing in the road is a bad idea and should be avoided if they don't want hit by a car. It is a factual statement & I'm sure that was learned by the victims, that being so drunk they can't function is something to try and avoid because there are bad people in the world. it is NOT a criticism of the Victim or blame on the Victim, but simply good advice. its the reader, or in this case, the writers interpretation of Ms. Williams comments that adds the blame part. This newspaper really needs some good intel

Grassroots Coalition Launches to Educate on Dangers of Marijuana
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (June 10, 2014) – Today, members of the Don't Let Florida Go to Pot coalition convened in Tallahassee to announce their efforts to educate Floridians on the dangers of marijuana and how the proposed Amendment 2 can impact the state's communities. This coalition includes more than 100 partners and organizations who represent medical, drug abuse and law enforcement interests across the state.
"The legalization of marijuana in Florida is a very important issue to Florida's law enforcement, and the Florida Sheriffs Association supports the efforts of the Don't Let Florida Go to Pot coalition," said Steve Casey, Executive Director of the Florida Sheriffs Association. "Educating our citizens to the dangers of illegal drugs such as marijuana is a high priority."
The coalition warns that legalizing marijuana, which has no accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse, is a dangerous decision for our state and its citizens. The proposed amendment is filled with loopholes that would allow doctors to authorize use of marijuana for virtually any reason with little regulation, which has the potential to harm families and diminish the quality of life throughout Florida.
The coalition has three particular concerns:
• The amendment provides no age restrictions, which will allow youth to easily obtain marijuana without parental consent. Amendment language requires confidentiality of all qualifying patients, which may trump parents' right to notice and consent. Studies have shown that youth who used marijuana before the age of 18, and continued using the drug, experienced as much as an 8 point drop in their IQ over a period of time.
• The caregivers described in the amendment are not required to have any background checks, training or certifications. This is a loophole that would open the door to abuse, allowing addicts, drug dealers, and convicted felons to become 'caregivers.'
• The amendment will undo recent efforts to combat the recent prescription pill epidemic. Law enforcement and Florida legislators have worked tirelessly to rid our state of pill mills and stop the abuse of powerful prescription drugs. Legalizing marijuana opens the door to replacing these pill mills with pot shops.
"Amendment 2 is a misleading, well thought-out fraud," said Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd. "The amendment does not require a doctor's prescription, rather only a recommendation. There is a loophole big enough to float a battleship through that will allow anyone in Florida to obtain pot for any reason -- making it nearly impossible for law enforcement to hold dealers and pot shop doctors accountable."
The Don't Let Florida Go to Pot coalition believes any legalization of marijuana will adversely impact our state and its citizens. To learn more about this issue and the Don't Let Florida Go to Pot coalition, please visit www.dontletflgotopot.com.
The Florida Sheriffs Association is a not-for-profit 501(c)3 corporation made up of Florida's Sheriffs, approximately 3,500 business leaders and 70,000 citizens throughout the state. Founded in 1893, FSA has quietly served the citizens of Florida by supporting the needs of the state's law-enforcement community. Through the Florida Sheriffs Association, Sheriffs are given a forum to address lawmakers to push for positive changes in Florida's public safety arena. FSA also provides Sheriffs' Offices much-needed programs such as affordable training, special task forces and legislative and legal services. Dedicated to the prevention of juvenile delinquency and the development of lawful, productive citizens, FSA has established and continues to support the Florida Sheriffs Youth Ranches, which manages facilities and programs throughout the state to help restore hope, fulfill dreams, and prepare boys and girls for the future. The Florida Sheriffs Association has grown to be one of the largest and most successful state law enforcement associations in the nation. For more information on the Florida Sheriffs Association, visit www.flsheriffs.org.
Voices of the Coalition
"As someone who has seen the effects that can come from substance abuse and understands addictive qualities of marijuana, Amendment 2 creates a system that will ultimately lead to drug abuse. There are proven alternatives to smoked marijuana that effectively deliver THC or CBD to people who truly can benefit from it -- and eliminate the individuals who are attempting to use it for a high."
-Kent Runyon, Director, Novus Medical Detox Center
"We do not allow convicted felons to own or possess firearms, but under the proposed amendment they would be allowed to purchase and distribute marijuana to up to five people. So in addition to no age restriction or parental consent, this amendment would also allow those with criminal and substance abuse backgrounds to legally obtain and redistribute marijuana. Once you add in the unethical doctors that will come in to profit from this, it will mean anyone and everyone will be able to obtain and smoke marijuana legally."
-Calvina Fay, Executive Director, Drug Free America
"In one of the last conversations I had with my son, he shared with me that his addiction to prescription pills came from his use of marijuana. He told me that the only reason he began taking prescription pills was to maintain the high he got from smoking marijuana."
-Karen Bailey, mother of a child who died from a drug overdose
"The more people see past the virulent pro-pot propaganda, the more they understand how bad this amendment will be for Florida. The real effect of medical marijuana in Florida will be to jeopardize the safety and drug-free future of our most precious resource – our youth."
-Bruce Grant, Chairman – Leon County Responsible Decision Making Coalition
"As a mother, I do not want to see Florida go down the same path it did with pill mills and have pot docs dispensing drugs next to my children's school. And, as a medical practitioner, I know I will not recommend pot to my patients for any purpose, nor do I know of any credible, responsible medical doctor that will. Before heading to the polls, I encourage all Floridians to take a closer look at the loopholes contained in Amendment 2 because my first duty is to 'do no harm,' and I truly believe these loopholes will only bring harm to our great state and our fellow Floridians."
-Dr. Stephanie Haridopolos

The District 1 commissioner contest seemed to overshadow District 2 at Wednesday's debate, with a back-and-forth battle between challenging Republican candidate Chas McConnell and incumbent Democrat James Newberry.
A 33-year Grand County resident, McConnell looks to oust Newberry from the commissioner seat he's held for 16 years; Newberry was determined to defend it.
"I believe it's time for new ideas and new enthusiasm in the Grand County District 1 commissioner (seat)," McConnell said in closing statements. "And I'm asking for your vote."
During a question about the candidates' top three agenda items if elected, McConnell targeted Newberry, saying his No. 1 agenda item would be to "put term limits on commissioners."
"Being a commissioner four terms, 16 years, is not what it should be, in my opinion," McConnell said.
Much later while answering a question about their vision for Grand County in 10 years, Newberry addressed term limits while talking about Grand Lake water clarity and the time it may take to cultivate a solution.
"I believe that's why 16 years in this job is a benefit," he said. Because I know what we need to do and I know how we need to move forward."
On the topic of improving the economy, McConnell credited the county for hiring an economic development facilitator - saying his presentation of a strategic economic development plan to commissioners "spurred them to want to hire this position" - but then criticized the county for not giving the facilitator "any true direction."
"They're trying to reinvent the wheel," McConnell said, who noted the Fraser Valley has lost "about 70 businesses" in the three years he's served on the Winter Park-Fraser Chamber. "We're losing time. We are losing people from Grand County at an alarming rate. Our business environment is not good."
Longtime Winter Park-business-owner McConnell touched on the need for reliable and affordable high speed Internet to help attract more businesses.
"We have to help our businesses that are here, and we have to entice new businesses to come to Grand County."
"Here is where there is a clear choice between Chas and myself," Newberry said. "He wants top-down" as an approach to economic development. "I want to find out what the businesses in the county need," he said. "I don't agree with a top-down approach."
But McConnell countered, saying he supports a top-down approach, but also supports bottom-up approaches, such as Granby's Enterprise Initiative, to "enhance businesses that are here. Why wouldn't we do both at once?"
On the topic of water, McConnell said he recognized the complexity of water issues, but said the county needs to "negotiate more on water issues." He applauded Newberry for working on water issues the past 16 years, but added, "We have a lot less water in our rivers now than we did 16 years ago," and called for the need for a (Windy Gap) bypass and flushing flows in the river.
Newberry said the county is making strides with Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District and the Bureau of Reclamation, and criticized McConnell for oversimplifying the issue.
County administration
Another exchange between the two candidates occurred during responses to a question about possible changes to the county administration, if elected.
"I've been on the campaign trail for 11 months now, and I've talked to thousands of people. And there's one question that I get asked over and over and over," said McConnell. "And it's 'What about the county attorney? What about the relationship with the county attorney representing the county, but also having a private criminal practice? Is there a conflict there?' One thing I would do if I were elected is I would have those questions answered," he continued.
"The citizens of Grand County are asking that question over and over and over because they feel there is a conflict; well then, let's get to the bottom of it. And if there's a conflict, then those changes have to be made."
Since Newberry had already answered, he responded during the next question about a vision for Grand County. After briefly touching on fixing water issues, he drew laughs from the audience when he said, "About the county attorney. He's a defense attorney, but he also specializes in divorces, so that brings a 50-50 chance to the table that whoever he's talking to, they're not going to like him."
Newberry went on to explain County Attorney Jack DiCola is paid $90,000 a year on a contract-basis, and the contract is renewed on a yearly basis. "The other attorneys around the sister counties, they're (paid) $175,000 to $225,000 (a year). They're full-time; they're not contract.
"The thing about Jack is, we don't lose very often," Newberry said.
McConnell said the last word on the subject during his closing statements. "If there's a conflict of interest, there's a conflict of interest," he said. "I just want to point that out. It's nice that James is defending him. If he was one of my employees, I'd probably do the same."
Comic relief came when Newberry answered the administration question. He said he was perplexed why Republican opponents would say they'll look for more efficiencies at the county, such as where to cut people and how to streamline operations to save the county money. Newberry pointed out that he is the only Democrat among county officials - that the county "is mostly run by Republicans." He proceeded to commend the Republicans.
"And I'm going to stand up for those Republicans," he said. "They do an outstanding job. They watch their budgets. Those guys are doing a good job over there. And you elected them, and I'm proud to work with them. I may be the only Democrat over there, but I tell you, they do a damn good job."
He then smiled and said, "You didn't see that coming, did you?"
But later, Newberry said the office of commissioner is a "non-partisan position."
"You do not make decisions on the county level, the local level, based on party affiliation."
District 2
Also squaring up during the debate were District 2 candidates Robb Rankin and Merrit Linke.
Rankin, who's lived in the county since 1981 and was superintendent of the East Grand School District from 1996 to 2008, said he was "not in favor of multiple variances" in response to a question about county zoning.
Linke, a Grand County native, Middle Park High School graduate, former teacher and a local business owner, said he would stand for property rights, but would take a balanced approach when it comes to neighbors infringing on the rights of others. He said he's noticed "inconsistencies of enforcement of (zoning) regulations on the books" at the county, and called for cleaning up, modifying or changing regulations so they could be better enforced.
When asked about improving the local economy, Rankin prompted laughs when he joked, "First I'm going to win the lottery."
In seriousness, he listed tourism, preserving and protecting natural resources, a solid infrastructure and sufficient broadband as hallmarks to improving the local economy.
Linke touted the need for government to facilitate "resource-based businesses," or products made here in Grand County and exported. He also touched on encouraging "eco-tourism" in Grand County and said his aim would be for the county to have fewer "boom and bust cycles" in 10 years.
When asked what their top agenda items would be if elected, Rankin said he would first focus energies on the budget and would explore giving county employees raises, since there has been a freeze on raises the past four years. He would do so to ensure a "consistent workforce," he said. Rankin said he supported the county's direction with water issues.
Linke said he would be devoted to learning more about county functions and would meet with business leaders in the county to find out what is needed and what is working or not working. Administratively, Linke said he would encourage county department heads to report directly to the commissioners rather than to a county manager.
On the county's estimated $25 million in reserves, Linke said he would not encourage any capital projects, saying he would be conservative with reserves to be prepared for lower assessed values and less revenue to the county.
Rankin would consider using the reserves to "close the landfill safely and effectively," he said. He would also analyze in the budget $900,000 set aside for the Fraser Valley Parkway to see if there is a better use of that money.
As far as changes to administration, Rankin said from his experience in working with 24 different school board members during his past career he would not change anything at the county at this point and would trust the "institutional history" employees have until learning more about his role as commissioner. His experience, he said, "lowers the learning curve."
One area where the candidates disagreed was in answers to a question about helping low-income residents of the county. Rankin touted the need to support social services and endorsed community support of early childhood education and supplemental funding for immunizations.
"I don't believe it's government's responsibility to take care of everyone," Linke said during his answer. "I think some people have to take some responsibility for themselves."

Paypal just sent me a receipt for the item though.
I'll have to see what happens with this...
@diannewinchester: My order went through when I posted the deal... Weird. By the way it is not MY website. Deals in this section are community generated, not posted by the vendor (mostly).
I got directed to Paypal, paid, then got forwarded to an "error" page on their end. However, I got a confirmation email from both Paypal for the purchase and bensoutlet.com for the order. I assume it went through. Everyone having difficulties, I would suggest checking your email for a possible order confirmation.

Everything I've read about Hadoop seems like exactly the technology we need to make our enterprise more scalable. We have terabytes of raw data that is in non-relational form (text files of some kind). We're quickly approaching the upper limits of what our centralized file server can handle and everyone is aware of this. Most people on the tech team, especially the more junior members of the tech team are all in favor of moving from the central file system to HDFS. The problem is, there is one key (most senior, etc.) member of the team who is resisting this change and every time Hadoop comes up, he tells us that we could simply add another file server and be in the clear.
So, my question (and yes, it's really subjective, but I need more help with this than any of my other questions) is what steps can we take to get upper management to move forward with Hadoop despite the hesitation of one member of the team?

After WW2 Japan capitulated and was disarmed. And as I know Japan was not able to have its own army, and its boundary would be protected by the United States. So, does Japan have the legal right to have its own army or navy? I was not able to find any worthy information in Google or Bing.
There are basically two answers to your question. The first comes from the legal precedents in the Japanese constitution, peace treaties, etc. The second is the de facto version of what actually happened after the war, and up to now.
Legally speaking, Japan was forbidden from having any kind of standing army, though they were permitted to have forces for their own self defense. Japan has never relied on the United States or any other country or governing body for its own protection in a strictly legal sense. In other words, the United States or United Nations never signed anything saying they would protect Japan.
However, in reality Japan does have a standing army in the form of its Self Defense Forces. Their military expenditures are in the top 10, and it is one of the most advanced armies in the world technologically, but still very small in terms of the number of people. The main difference after WWII is that Japan pledged never to deploy their forces abroad for any reason, though in the past 10-15 years they have been involved in some overseas peacekeeping, and contributed a destroyer and a refueling ship as a support asset to the war in Afghanistan. At this point, if Japan decided to increase the size of its military it wouldn't really be forbidden from doing so, but Japan has kept its military small by choice because, frankly, it's much cheaper.
Finally, while the United States never formally agreed to protect Japan the number of US military bases in the country means that, in a practical sense, it does. This has also allowed Japan to get away with keeping its military small, since the US Navy and other assets are spread all around Japan and S Korea. As far as the future goes, it's harder to say because the US has been rolling back military expenditures. It wouldn't be surprising to see the US encouraging Japan to increase the size of its military in order to decrease reliance on the US for protection, but it could easily go either way.
Security Challanges: Japan's Defence Dilemma is an interesting document. It sheds some light on this history of balancing constitution (and anti-militaristic sentiment associated), Japan's strategic objectives and it's alliance with the United State. It takes the view that Japan have been subverting article 9 to "normalise" the state. It also points out that major problem with extending the role of the JSDF (or "Normalising" its role) would be to "normalise" the relationship with the US and perhaps risk losing the US's large protective presence. However it also questions how much Japans refusal to take a normal military role may already be jeopardizing it's relation with the US. It's an interesting view and seems to echo what the other answerers are saying.
Here's an extract:
Normalisation by Stealth
The entire course of Japan's post-war defence policy has been a slow march towards normalcy. In practice, Japan's so-called 'peace constitution' has only delayed but not prevented progress towards normal statehood. Initially, successive Japanese governments engaged in a process of 'revision by reinterpretation' as a way of circumventing constitutional prohibitions. More recently 'revision by legislation' has been the preferred method of change. Both the Iraq deployment and the dispatch of naval forces to the Indian Ocean in support of the coalition in Afghanistan have been authorised by specific items of legislation in 2001 and 2003. These capped a series of laws enacted over the past decade, which have expanded and diversified the roles and capabilities of Japan's Self-Defence Forces (SDF). Successive Japanese governments have accumulated a series of faits accomplis, creating the necessary precedents for the acquisition of new functions by the SDF.
2 Article 9 of the Japanese Constitution – the so-called 'Peace Clause' – has been consistently interpreted by the Japanese government as prohibiting Japan's exercise of its right to collective self-defence (meaning military action to defend the United States or its forces) as well as Japanese participation in collective security operations under UN auspices. However, Japan's inherent right to collective self-defence as a sovereign state has never been abrogated, and indeed is recognised under the UN charter. The prevailing interpretation of Article 9 on collective self-defence was made in 1981 by the Cabinet Legislation Bureau. It stated: 'It is recognized under international law that a state has the right of collective self-defense, which is the right to use actual force to stop an armed attack on a foreign country with which it has close relations, even when the state itself is not under direct attack. It is therefore self-evident that since it is a sovereign state, Japan has the right of collective self-defense under international law. The Japanese government nevertheless takes the view that the exercise of the right of self-defense as authorized under Article NINE of the Constitution is confined to the minimum necessary level for the defense of the country. The government believes that the exercise of the right of collective self-defense exceeds that limit and is not, therefore, permissible under the Constitution'. Quoted in R J Samuels, 'Constitution al Revision in Japan: The Future of Article 9', The Brookings Institution, Center for Northeast Asian Policy, 15 December 2004, www.brookings.edu/fp/cnaps/events/20041215.pdf.
Formally, Japan has no right: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Article_9_of_the_Japanese_Constitution#Debate
Substantively, the Japanese state has taken such a right: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan_Self-Defense_Forces#History
Politically, as the Chinese state has a great interest in Japan's capacity for aggressive war, Japan's interpretation of Article 9 both formally and substantively is closely watched by a large heavily armed state.

ExxonMobil said this week's fire at its massive Texas refinery will result in some impacts to production, but it still expects to meet contractual agreements. All remaining refining operations are normal.
By ROSE MARTON-VITALE
ExxonMobil said Thursday a fire at an unspecified process
unit at its Baytown refinery in Texas late Wednesday
will result in some impacts to production, but added that it
expects to meet its contractual agreements.
The fire that broke out at 5:00 p.m. local time Wednesday
was extinguished by ExxonMobil's on-site emergency responders
by 8:30 p.m. It was confined to one unit.
ExxonMobil said in a filing to the National Response Center
that the fire was caused by a hole in a reactor. The filing
didn't identify the unit involved.
All remaining refining operations are normal,
company spokeswoman Rachael Moore reiterated in an emailed
There were no injuries associated with this event and
air-quality monitoring around the complex and in the community
has revealed no adverse impact.
An investigation is under way to determine the cause of this
incident, Ms. Moore added.
Cash market refined product pricing premiums have moved up
on speculation of tightening supply due to this fire, traders
Ultra-low-sulfur diesel fuel for prompt 57th-cycle Colonial
Pipeline delivery has traded to 8 cents/gal over November Nymex
heating oil futures, up from 6.5 to 7 cents over the day
Prompt 57th-cycle delivery of M3-grade regular conventional
gasoline traded 1.25 cents up on the day, at 13.25 cents over
November Nymex RBOB.
The Baytown refinery, a five-square-mile complex
that produces fuels and petrochemicals, has a capacity of
584,000 bpd, making it the largest operating refinery in the US and one of the
largest in the world.

Fitim Morina is a machine is all I'm going to say...
100th post and 100th view
Now onto the match, 3-2 win to us away from home
Yeh im finding it hard to get people to come to Norway. some wont even talk to me
Even Latvians don't want me! :'(
Still the club is starting to come alive!
I have just played out a thrilling comeback in my second Brazilian game to win it 2-1.
I have worked out why the team is conceding, all of my new signings has reduced how well the team know the tactic so I have put that up to try and help
How about players noone's heard of who live in that country?
There is a reason no ones heard of them
EDIT: Oh and last month my little club made £50k profit!
Haven't posted in a while but this is still a great read
Congratz on the promotion last season
50k? wow now youre stepping up.
get a promotion again and turn it into a 500k/month profit!
After a couple of disappointing friendlies we managed to pull this out of the bag:
I think they might be getting the tactics...
wowsers. I dont seem to get blowouts at all with my team. They get lazy on a lead
I tell them that I'm "Thrilled" and they love it! They keep scoring Try it
I was 3-0 up at half time
Eiossons turn to shine this game, a hattrick and he scored this strange goal:
Season 3 January February and March Update - 2. Deild Karla:
I went for nearly all away friendlies again this season in order to bring in some cash.
The results were a bit of a mixed bag, some amazing ones, and some awful ones. Hopefully we can get some good results in the league and be a bit more consistent. I like to play a lot of friendlies to keep the team in good shape and as I make money I can't complain!
On the plus side are finances are very healthy! We are now £70k in the black which is good, if we can start turning a profit then I might get some new facilities!

I just lost 1-0 and it was a game we completely dominated...
Flamers, quick question, where did you get this edited Icelandic League, did you make it yourself?
No, Editors Hideaway, here: http://community.sigames.com/showthr...avia-etc)-v1.0
The next game we managed to perform better:
At the end of today I am sitting in second place so not a bad start really!
Good job!
7 points out of 4 games, 1 point clear of third so I'm pretty happy
Season 3 June Half Season Update - 2. Deild Karla:
Results | League Table
Considering we were expected to finish last we are not doing too bad! Poor finishing is costing us some of are games but I'm sure that I can improve that in the transfer window which is in July. If not I will be able to do it over winter when my reputation should have hopefully gone up.
For the first time ever we are into the third round of the cup, we have drawn First division KA. I will try to win but it doesn't bother me that much, I would prefer to be safe in the league than get to the 4th round in the cup.
Finances | Transfers
I am making a £4k loss every month but we have a big enough bank balance to cope, I am also now starting to buy in players as I have £19k left in my transfer budget!
Last edited by Flamers; 09-03-2011 at 20:11.
Whats the home grown player rules like in that league?
There isn't any rules about that in any level of Icelandic football. It's so bad no one really wants to come here...
As I'm doing quite well this season I changed my expectations:
cheap ******** dont offer you much of a raise :\
im too drunk to play my game. think illl muck it up too mcuh
i take that back. i just played stabaek and won 2-0 !!! woooohohooo
Last edited by deadfncat; 07-01-2011 at 13:59.
I'm always paranoid about changing expectations mid-season! Plus if you keep them as low as possible the board are extra-happy if you exceed them
Well I can't seem to score for love nor money, I lost 1-0 in my last game.
17 shots, 6 on target, 55% possession and I hit the crossbar once!
They had 6 shots 2 on target... HOW!!??
depends though
when you get into the big money, the extra cash can be considerable and make a lot of difference in signing a big name playre
I'm looking for new strikers, lets put it that way...
I have a french striker you can have. loves to whinge and moan but does score goals
Oh, PLEASE!!! I need someone who has finishing than 12.... It's so annoying, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
the guy im trying to dump has 14 pace, 12 finishing, 14 composure and 9 long shots
Those stats are the total of my best striker :'(
thats pretty good though. my league is a lot higher than yours.
Im sitting pretty in 3rd place at the moment with the Euro Cup coming up. Its wierd playing it towards the end of the season rather than at the beginning like in the English Premier League
Surely it's better though, your team is fully match fit compared to the unfit "Mainland" teams
My league is 220th in Europe :P
Yeh i guess. We get fixture congestion though more than they do.
I think my league is 48 or so
i going to bed. *snore*
I wouldn't worry too much You have advantages, so do they, makes it even
I SCORED!!! It was to make it a 1-1 draw but still!!
This is a weird feeling, 2 games in a row STRIKERS have scored :O
FINALLY!!! 2-0 win over Hamar!
Both goals scored by strikers
The table is so tight that took me from 11th, in the relegation zone, to 7th!
Another 2-0 win away from home at the bottom team:
We are now 5 points clear of relegation which is nice
The season is drawing to a close, we seem to be heading for midtable mediocrity which is fine by me!
Just had a lovely 2-0 win away from home at the league leaders.
We are now safe in the league as well
Season 3 Review - 2. Deild Karla:
Results | League Table
You can see the big blip that happened during the middle of the season. I changed the tactics a little, and let my assistant do the team talks and signed some new strikers, something worked and started scoring, not many but 1 goal is enough to win a match. At the end of the season we turned unbeatable, in 14 games we lost 2! Admittedly some of them, quite a lot, were draws but it was still points. Next season I think we can make a good charge for the top considering some of the signings I have lined up.
We got through one round of the cup then lost 3-1 to KA but I didn't mind, my mind was on the league.
Finances | Transfers
I am now making bigger losses which is worrying however my 3 month pre season should sort that out!
I released a lot of players in order to free up some wage budget, I have changed from loaning to buying players which will be better in the long run. My scouts have started finding some real jems who could really make a difference in sure a lowly skilled division.
Key Players
1. Sindri Steinarsson. A versatile defender with 6 Man of the Match awards to his name this season. He also has scored 4 vital goals this season from corners.
2. Guomundur Steinporsson. My top scorer with 6 in all competitions, not great but the best out of a bad bunch really. However he is on the Favoured Personnel list.
3. Samuel Kjartansson. One of the strikers that I brought in half way through the season, scored 3 in 11 starts which is respectable. He would have been higher up if he had played the whole season.
If you want any more screenshots then just ask me.

My scouts are doing a damn good job, they keep turning up players who will sign on frees who are "leading stars" for the division ABOVE me!!
I just noticed I conceded the fewest goals last season, go me!
Nice work dude. Solidify your defence a bit and maybe add some more strike power and you will be outta this league next season!
During the pre season I will be adding a feature, "Top Signings" where I will give you the pick of my new signings so you can have a look This time there are some pretty tasty ones
Best result so far:
Season 4 Prevue - 2. Deild Karla:
Results | Expectations | Media Expectations
These are few few friendlies that fall into last season, Only one goal conceded so it seems that my new goal keeper is fitting in well, my new strikers also seem to be getting the hang of the system.
I selected "Top Half Finish" as I needed the wage budget really. I am aiming high this year and in all honesty I will be disappointed if we can't get promotion as the squad looks way to strong to be in this division and sure run riot. If they can score. The media have put me a 50-1 outsiders.
Finances | Transfers
Well, lets not look at my finances. I am still in the black but not by much, I am going to have to play 4 months of solid friendlies to be able to keep afloat all season.
I did bring in basically a whole new first team this season, however most of them are rated to be good enough to last me even if I get promoted. So I was looking for the future, I did bring in a couple of older players to give me a bit of experience but even these players are rated 4 stars in this division!
I have started to sign foreign players! I have found a stupid amount of good Ukrainians and a couple of good Brazilians who were willing to sign for me. The best thing about Iceland is there is no restriction on foreign players, at any level!
Key Signings
1. Olexiy Kopylchenko. He may be getting on but he still has some pretty damn good physicals, combine that with 13 finishing and good mental stats he is a great striker!
2. Nilton. Natural Defensive Midfielder, good physicals and not bad technical skills. He's another one who's getting on but he should do me for a good couple of seasons, I got him on a free as well so he looks prefect.
3. Vignir Johannesson. Another players who joined on a free, this time he came from Premier Division winners Breioabik having only made 9 appearances in his career, he's young and pretty good so I'm happy.
If you want any more screenshots then just ask me.

Great season, and hopefully those signings will really help you kick on and achieve another promotion!
Why thank you I will try and do it, it's going to be tough but we shall try!
Also the media put me as 50-1 outsiders, who will be laughing at the end of the season?
Me! I put $5000 on your team. I expect promotion or there will be broken legs!
Haha, well I got a news item recently saying that a foreign tycoon might take over a club in the division (not mine). If that happens champions is impossible as they will have £50m...
Now they are buying the club. They are paying £8k for it then investing £10m, WTF????
whats your club worth?
Mine is averaging £150k, richest club in Iceland is currently £2.9m!!!
and the chairman is dumping 10 mil into a club? ouch
doesnt mean they will win it all though
The club is now worth £4.3m....
I'm hoping that the staff aren't good enough to cope
Another win in 35 degree heat in Swaziland, not very Icelandic weather!
ouch must be a killer to the players. good pre season training though
I was going to do a pre season tour with my squad but I'm penny pinching at the moment to try and upgrade everything.
Thats why you arrange all away friendlies, £12k a trip some times and great training!
Season 4 January February and March Update - 2. Deild Karla:
Results | Finances
I only conceded 7 goals, which isn't too bad. 4 of those were in 2 games so that's not bad, I have also worked out that I hate playing Brazilian clubs. The style they play seems to course havoc with my system which I don't like. We also did take down some bigger clubs and put in some good performances. I am very confident going into this season and I feel we should do well.
My finances have been buoyed by my jet setting across the world which is nice, we have made £67k profit in 3 months which should last us until next season. The thing that keeps getting me is that I can only get £1.5k in sponsorship, some clubs are getting £60k in my division. One club also got taken over and is now the richest in Iceland.
Last edited by Flamers; 09-03-2011 at 20:11.
by some bugger clubs? did you get a NZ accent?
I am starting the season proper tomorrow, time to see if I can beat the £6m club.. What a f****** joke... Saying that their squad is AWFUL compared to mine
Well this was a good way to start the league campaign:
They had no shots on target as well, kinda shows how insanely good my defensive is...
This is playing with my new 4-4-2 narrow diamond I now have a natural AMC who is insane, even it 31
Great job you sending the fullbacks forward?
Nope I use Control as starting though. I just drew 1-1, I seem to only concede from corners, I need to sort that out...
Just won 1-0, 2 shots on target the WHOLE game, both mine
better than winning 1-0 with 30+ shots on goal. then you know your team is just being wasteful
Won 2-1 3 shots on goal
Icelandic defence is incredible!
EDIT: 3 points clear after 4 games
How far off the top flight are you now Flamers?
you need to get some Australians on that team Flamers
3rd tier still.
How about this for how bad my strikers are and how good the opposition goal keepers are:
18 shots, 6 on target, none scored. 5 shots, 2 on target they scored. I feel there might be a LITTLE bias in here? 54% possession to me as well...
Oh that team was the division below..
First time for everything:
They know they were wrong...
happens. usually bad strikers rather than good keepers though.
strikers getting lazy and taking bad shots.
pick them apart at half time and criticise their performance afterwards etc.
or bench them :P
Yes it is
The problem is I think he is the ONLY Icelandic referee, well the only one I have seen!
what are their decisions/composure like?
depends where you are playing them too and if they take long shots
Composure is about 8-12 Decisions 4-8
Still some fo the best in the league...
They is now getting stupid...
They had 3 shots, 2 on target, scored 2.
10 shots, 3 on target, scored none. 59% possession. What more can I do???
tone down your attack a bit more and sit them back. they may be too excited and firing too quick? maybe lower the tempo
I spose, it's just frustrating...
I changed from "Control" to "Standard" and scored!! Admittedly it was my AMC, but still!!
EDIT: 3 times now
EDIT2: 3 scored out of 5 on target, much better

Just been to wash to cars, in winter, now I'm bloody cold!
Just thinking, half way is July, not June and I have transfers to talk about.
Update put back to July now

haha im the same
trying to finish my season so i can do an update and go to bed
i got in trouble before because all ive done all day is play FM. oh well! it was raining so i couldnt mow the lawn anyway!
I keep conceding stupid goals now.. Great...
I complained again, this time I got a touchline ban :P
I hate this ref... So far he has disallowed 6 goals this season of mine. And not given me 2 penalties. What I joke, oh and red carded 2 of my players...
Season 4 July Half Season Update - 2. Deild Karla:
Results | League Table
3 draws, 2 losses and 6 wins +7 goal difference and yet I have only score 14. It's not great but it's getting us by, I am having to create some weird tactics in order to get my best players in the right positions. My latest creation is a 4-1-3-2, not that weird but it is considering I have about 7 strikers on my books!
Expected to finish 11th, bah who's stupid idea was that? I think that person might be getting the sack. The lowest I have been all season has been 5th and that was during the time when I couldn't hit a barn door and lost my only 2 games. Overall I am quite happy, I wouldn't mind to get a good striker who is capable of doing what he's paid to do but without a massive budget and no players wanting a cold summer break on loan I am struggling.
Finances | Transfers
The less said about my finances the better, simply I need promotion this year or I will really struggle.
No transfers due to having no league reputation and being expected to be relegated in that division.
Last edited by Flamers; 09-03-2011 at 20:11.
The game after the update was the one a had a touchline ban for, guess what happened? We won 2-0, one of our biggest wins all year...
But my assistant did manage to injure my star DMC for 10-12 days... Luckily there was no fixture for 14 days after
Looks like things are going well, despite the problems in front of goal. Get them flowing and you'll be unstoppable
Thanks, I really wish there was a way to get them flowing. I have tried everything, it works for one game then stops again which is frustrating.
There is a reason they are playing in Iceland, you know.
Shush :P I started this as a challenge, and it's a bloody good one :P
Flamers I'll leave this right here for you
Well I have had a 3-1 win and a 1-0 win so far this morning

i have a hard disk which has a lots of bad sectors at a certain drive.i am using this hard disk as a slave in my computer.i haven't installed any os on this disk.This hard disk usually hangs my computer.when i remove this disk,my computer operates smmothly.Now i wanted to install an os and use it on another computer.how can i use this hard disk for problem free operation.
bad sector in hard drive
Try a low level formating
format the HDD. since it is a slave i assume no partitions in it. It will be a single drive in My computer.
goto command prompt. go to the slave hdd's drive. and type
If it asks for confirmation give 'y'. IF this doesn't solve ur problem u need to run any other program such as Tune up's disk doctor. or any defragmanter like Perfect disk , diskeeper.
goto command prompt. go to the slave hdd's drive. and type
chkdsk /x

A Margulis number for a hyperbolic $n$-manifold $M=\mathbb{H}^n/\Gamma$ is a number $\epsilon>0$ such that for each $x\in\mathbb{H}^n$ the group generated by the elements in $\Gamma$ which move $x$ less than distance $\epsilon$ is elementary. The Margulis constant for hyperbolic $n$-manifolds is the largest number $\epsilon(n)$ which is a Margulis number for every hyperbolic $n$-manifold.
Meyerhoff showed that $\epsilon(3) > 0.104$. (Robert Meyerhoff. A lower bound for the volume of hyperbolic 3-manifolds. Canad. J. Math., 39(5):1038–1056, 1987.)
Shalen proved that 0.29 is a Margulis number for all but finitely many orientable hyperbolic 3-manifolds. He also notes that experimental evidence suggests that $\epsilon(3) <0.616$ (Peter Shalen. Topology and geometry in dimension three, 103–109, Contemp. Math., 560, Amer. Math. Soc., Providence, RI, 2011)
Question 1: Is Meyerhoff's lower bound the best known lower bound for $\epsilon(3)$?
Question 2: What is known about the Margulis constants for higher dimensional hyperbolic manifolds?

But they will physically stop a plane carrying the president of a sovereign state - when it's from Latin America - in order to subvert the well-established process for seeking asylum from political persecution (and yes: the US persecutes whistleblowers).All of this smacks of exactly the kind of rank imperialism and colonialism that infuriates most of Latin America, and further exposes the emptiness of American and western European lectures about the sacred rule of law. This is rogue nation behavior.

Keith Alexander that the agency is incapable of stating how many Americans are having their calls and emails invaded without warrants, as well as the oft-repeated claim from President Barack Obama that the NSA is not listening in on Americans' calls without warrants. Both of those assertions, as our prior reporting and Miller's article this week demonstrates, are indisputably false. Beyond that, the NSA got caught spreading falsehoods even in its own public talking points about its surveillance programs, and were forced by our disclosures to quietly delete those inaccuracies.Intentionally deceiving Congress is a felony, punishable by up to 5 years in prison for each offense. Reagan administration officials were convicted of misleading Congress as part of the Iran-contra scandal and other controversies, and sports stars have been prosecuted by the Obama DOJ based on allegations they have done so.Beyond its criminality, lying to Congress destroys the pretense of oversight.

GENESEO, N.Y. - The U.S. State Department has granted authority to the State University of New York at Geneseo to issue the document required for a J-1 visa to foreign students and faculty members wishing to study, teach or conduct research at Geneseo.
"Until last year, students and faculty members wishing to come to Geneseo on a J-1 visa had to be sponsored by the University at Buffalo," said Rebecca Lewis, interim assistant provost in the Office of International Programs. "Due to changes in the reporting requirements, the University at Buffalo no longer is able to sponsor exchange students or faculty on other campuses. Having the ability to issue the document required to obtain a J-1 visa will allow SUNY Geneseo greater flexibility in bringing international students and faculty to our campus."
The J-1 Exchange Visitor Program is designed to promote mutual understanding between people in the United States and other countries through educational and cultural exchanges. International visitors with J-1 visas are required to return to their home countries after they complete their programs.
"We think Geneseo's strong focus on international education had a lot to do with the quick approval of our application," said Wes Kennison, faculty fellow for international programs. "The federal government wants organizations with exemplary track records in this area to administer these programs and Geneseo easily measured up."
To contact Geneseo about the program, call 585-245-5546 or visit www.geneseo.edu/oip .

GTD recommends a standalone label printer so nothing gets in the way of printing labels immediately when they are needed.
Researching what's available as far as label printers go, I'm seeing:
- terrible stories about how quickly they eat up batteries, 4-6 at a time, rechargeables depleted after as little as 10 labels.
- power adapters for them being 2A switched modes, costing twice as much as the printer
- thermal labels fading quickly
- very high prices on labels (especially locally)
I'm thinking about the unproductive use of time involved in recharging batteries, or trips to restock on batteries & labels at best, or being caught without labels or good batteries more realistically. The price of labels and propensity of companies to bring out new models not accepting older consumables has taught me not to stock up.
USB label printers
After seeing some of my desktop printers become throw-aways because they no longer have drivers under later versions of Windows, I also fear buying a dedicated USB-driven label printer.
Laser/Inkjet label sheets
I'm considering just sticking to sheet of labels in the laser printer. Some stories I've read from people who did this found themselves waiting for a full sheet of labels before they'd print. Not good. I'm thinking of printing straight away and just reusing the label sheet until it's empty or too beaten up to use anymore. Or did you also think you'd do that? Does the glue become ineffective after being heated through the laser printer multiple times, or labels start to peel off inside the printer?
Label removal
I've heard the laminated type of stickers used by some label machines can be peeled off quite easily (which those laser stickers don't!) Is this something handy for a GTD style workflow?
If the dedicated label printer is preferable, would the portability of running it off batteries outweigh constantly replacing them?
Essentially I'm just looking for the least intrusive method of professional looking labeling. The professionalism of printed fonts is important to my psyche, so just using a sharpie is out. In fact, even the 200dpi fonts these label printers seem to output bugs me a little.
Edit: I note two posters have talked about the simple pen. Normally I'd agree, I hate complex software engineering tools, preferring just a whiteboard. But here I get what David Allen is on about. Seeing well-designed fonts just seems to trigger a clean, organized mind. They can be read easier and from farther away, they're the same color, same stroke width, not haphazard.
Update: Reading some of the answers here and at other sources, I'm convinced labelling is just one task that must be handled by a unitasker, so it's always ready-at-hand. I've ordered a p-touch (PT2030AD) that comes with an adapter and appears to be unanimously liked by reviewers.

Let $G$ be the group generated by $a_i,b_j$, $i,j=1,2,3$ and the following relations: $$b_ib_j=b_jb_i, a_ib_j=b_ja_i, a_1a_2=b_3a_2a_1, a_2a_3=v_1a_3a_2, a_3a_1=v_2a_1a_3$$ I want to comute the homology of $H_nG=H_n(G,\mathbb{Z})$ where $\mathbb{Z}$ is considered as a trivial $G$-module. I have made some attempts of applying spectral sequences (Lyndon-Hochschild-Serre). Here I chose $N=\langle b_1,b_2,b_3\rangle$ as the normal (central) subgroup of $G$. However I could not manage to compute the differentials. Does anyone know how to do this (either by spectral sequences or any other way)?
If $v_i=b_i$, your group is the free nilpotent group of class 2 and rank 3. Its homology is known: http://iopscience.iop.org/1064-5616/189/4/A03.
I'll try to give an idea on how the computation can be done using the LHS spectral sequence (SS). I start computing cohomology, for cohomology admits a cup product in the SS that is quite useful. Let be $C := Z(G) = \langle b_1,b_2,b_3 \rangle \cong \mathbb{Z}^3$ and $Q := G/C \cong \mathbb{Z}^3$.
Note that $H^\ast(C) = \Lambda_{\mathbb{Z}}(x_1,x_2,x_3)$ and $H^\ast(Q) = \Lambda_{\mathbb{Z}}(y_1,y_2,y_3)$.
Since the extension $$ 1 \to C \to G \to Q \to 1\hspace{20pt}(\ast)$$ is central, by universal coefficients, $$E_2 = H^\ast(Q;H^\ast(C)) = H^\ast(Q) \otimes H^\ast(C) = \Lambda_{\mathbb{Z}}(x_1,...,y_3)$$ with $\deg x_i = (0,1)$, $\deg y_j = (1,0)$. Note that $d_2$ is a derivation, i.e. $$d_2(a \cdot b) = d_2(a)\cdot b + (-1)^{i+j}a \cdot d_2(b) \hspace{20pt}(\ast\ast)$$ for $a \in E_2^{i,j}, b \in E_2^{k,l}$. Since $d_2(y_j) = 0$ (for positional reasons), $d_2$ is completely determined by its values on the $x_i's$.
Now there's an important formula for $d_2^{0,1}$. It depends on the extension class from $(\ast)$. A good reference is [Neukirch, Schmidt, Wingberg: Cohomology of Number Fields, Theorem 2.1.7]. Using the formula, I found
Perhaps someone can compare the result with the paper referenced by Mark Sapir. Thanks.
Trivially $H_0G=\mathbb{Z}$. And it's well known that $H_1G=G/[G,G]$. And we have Hopf's formula $H_2G=R∩[F,F]/[F,R]$ for presentation $G=F/R$. So "low" dimensions are taken care of. Computer programs (GAP,HAP) can compute group homology for a ton of finite groups and certain infinite groups, but I haven't used it in 3 years and am not sure if it works in your case.

A friend of mine, who is a high school math teacher and majored in math in college, recently asked me for a good book to read on Abstract Algebra (presumably, group theory). She is looking for something to read semi-casually, so no serious textbooks which hide intuition.
My own education largely skipped the basics. I read through Pinter in the library one afternoon, and that was pretty much it. So, can people recommend a good book on abstract algebra/groups for the casual learner?

Hello folks,
As I explained my problem earlier, I am looking for Fault Tolerance in MPI Programs. I read in Open MPI 2.1 standard document that two DISCONNECTED processes does not affect each other, i.e. they can die or can be killed without whithout affecting other processes.
So, I was trying this to achieve fault tolerance using MPI::Comm::Disconnect() to disconnect the CHILD process with PARENT process, which was spawned by calling MPI::Comm::spawn(). I am calling MPI::Comm::Disconnect() from CHILD process immediatly after calling MPI::Init(). It seems that CHILD process is not returning from this call.
I tried MPI::Comm::Free() too, but this is also not working. Process is not progressing from this point of call. If I comment these statements, everything works fine. Note that I have tried this in Solaris as well as in Linux (fedora core).
My question is, whether Open-mpi suports to disconnect two processes( like child from parent). And if it is, then how?
Thanks & Regards,
Unfortunately I cannot provide a precise time frame for availability at this point, but we are targeting the v1.5 release series. There is a handful of core developers working on this issue at the moment. Pieces of this Āwork have already made it into the Open MPI development trunk. If you want to play around with what is available try turning on the resilient mapper:
Ā-mca rmaps resilient
We will be sure to email the list once this work becomes more stable and available.

Hi Josh,
It is good to hear from you that work is in progress towards resiliency of Open-MPI. I was and I am waiting for this capability in Open-MPI. I have almost finished my development work and waiting for this to happen so that I can test my programs. It will be good if you can tell how long it will take to make Open-MPI a resilient impementation. Here by resiliency I mean abnormal termination or intentionally killing a process should not cause any(parent or sibling) process to be terminated, given that processes are connected.

Task-farm or manager/worker recovery models typically depend on intercommunicators (i.e., from MPI_Comm_spawn) and a resilient MPI implementation. William Gropp and Ewing Lusk have a paper entitled "Fault Tolerance in MPI Programs" that outlines how an application might take advantage of these features in order to recover from process failure.
However, these techniques strongly depend upon resilient MPI implementations, and behaviors that, some may argue, are non-standard. Unfortunately there are not many MPI implementations that are sufficiently resilient in the face of process failure to support failure in task-farm scenarios. Though Open MPI supports the current MPI 2.1 standard, it is not as resilient to process failure as it could be.
There are a number of people working on improving the resiliency of Open MPI in the face of network and process failure (including myself). We have started to move some of the resiliency work into the Open MPI trunk. Resiliency in Open MPI has been improving over the past few months, but I would not assess it as ready quite yet. Most of the work has focused on the runtime level (ORTE), and there are still some MPI level (OMPI) issues that need to be worked out.
With all of that being said, I would try some of the techniques presented in the Gropp/Lusk paper in your application. Then test it with Open MPI and let us know how it goes.

Although I have perhaps the least experience on the topic in this

MPI standards specify communication mechanism, not fault tolerance at
any level. You may achieve network tolerance at the IP level by
implementing 'equal cost multipath' routes (which means two equally
capable NIC cards connecting to the same destination and modifying the
kernel routing table to use both cards; the kernel will dynamically
load balance.). At the MAC level, you can achieve the same effect by
trunking multiple network cards.
You can achieve process level fault tolerance by a checkpointing
scheme such as BLCR, which has been tested to work with OpenMPI (and
other processes as well)

I am getting ready to start a new campaign that was made for higher level characters. I want to use the campaign but want to lower the monster levels and may want to raise monster levels inthe future. What would be the best way to level/de-level any monster?
Sign up

4e monsters have a number of critical scaling factors: HP, Defenses, Attacks, and Damage
HP is roughly a function of 8*Level+24. To be exact, compute the distance the monster's current HP is from this (as percentage), convert to the new level, and then apply that percentage. (Beware of early monsters though, they tend to be big boring sacks of HP.)
Defenses are trivial: Level+14 for AC, and Level+12 or NADs. Find the difference from the norms (as number) find the new "Average defenses" for the level, then apply the difference. Beware of fort, entirely too many monsters have a stupid-high fort, which has unfortunate implications for a number of otherwise quite interesting character classes.
Attacks: Level+5 for AC, Level+3 for NADs, with a bit of fiddling on AoE attacks. Again, find the difference, compute new value, apply difference.
Damage should work out to be Level+8. Simply find the average damage for the level, and render it into dice. No need to back-convert.
The big table that this was derived from can be found in the Rules Updates page 45.
It's actually quite trivial to scale that, and skill DCs (make sure you use the ones in the link) to an appropriate level. Remember that grabs now use appropriate moderate skill DCs instead of monster defences.
I'd, personally, just reskin other monsters to add variety and new mechanics. But that doesn't answer the question :)
I do it by the book. It mostly works out. The only thing that doesn't is that there are some powers that get a boost depending on the tier of the character. If you de-level a creature from 11 to 10 and that creature had bonus damage for sneak attack, by the book it would still have paragon level sneak attack despite being heroic. Unless you're trying to be a RAW killer DM, pay attention to these sources of damage and lower them appropriately. Likewise, you should increase them if you level up any monsters.
Scaling monster math is one of the few things the new web-based Monster Builder/Listddi at Wizards of the Coast (with subscription) does.
If the monsters you want to change aren't in the database already, you can either re-skin something there (as suggested by others) or you can download the original Monster Builder (Adventure Tools) to create your own copy of the monster. You can also import it into the web version for scaling and easy access no matter where you are...

Applied Study Term
The Criminal Justice Department requires that all majors complete a six (6) hour Applied Study Term (AST), which satisfies the Engagement Experience and the ECCE elective.
For students who have not worked in their field of interest, the Applied Study Term is a chance to get valuable experience and to make contacts that may help in finding employment. Students who have completed a lower-division internship should use the UIS AST to gain additional experience or to explore a different interest area. Students who are already employed in their chosen career field can take advantage of the AST requirement to gain new responsibilities or to explore related options. Students may complete an AST in their career workplace, provided they take on new or additional responsibilities or work in a different area from their regular employment.
Students on academic probation or who are only conditionally admitted are not eligible to register for the AST. Applied Study Term placements must be arranged before the semester in which they start. Criminal Justice majors must complete all 300-level required core courses before undertaking the AST. Students should begin by consulting with their adviser, who may refer them to the Applied Study Office or to another faculty member in the Department for more information. The Applied Study Office will assist students with the placement application process. However, the studentís adviser in the Criminal Justice Department must approve the proposed placement.
Once the placement has been arranged and your adviser has signed off on your AST Project Outline, the AST Office will provide the WPI (With Permission of Instructor) needed to register for the credits, and the student can proceed to register. No student is permitted to register for an AST after the class seminars have begun without specific permission from the AST office.
Students may do their AST outside the Springfield area by participating in the online AST seminars. However, the availability is limited in the online seminars so it is important that you plan ahead and request approval with the AST office for participation in an online section of the AST seminars.
