[4.1-RC1] Model load method wont use configured idProperty
i think this bug has been posted before, but is still there so here goes again.
Ext version tested:
ExtJs 4.1 beta 1, beta 2 , beta 3, RC1
Browser versions tested against:
Firefox 10.0.2
Chrome 17.0.963.66
Model load static method will always send a request with a field with name "id" and wont use the configured model idProperty.
Steps to reproduce the problem:
Define a simple model with a configured idProperty
Run Model.load()
check the http request data
The result that was expected:
send the configured idProperty name and value to the server
The result that was expected:
always sends a value under the key "id"
Test Case:
// just setting a provider to give you full code to test // doenst need to configure anything else // select method doesnt need to exists in the server side, the problem happens when sending Ext.direct.Manager.addProvider({ "url":"php\/router.php", "type":"remoting", "actions":{ "testQuery":[ {"name":"personSelect","len":1} ] } }); Ext.define('Person', { extend: 'Ext.data.Model', fields: [ {name:'someId' , type:'int'} ], idProperty: 'someId', proxy: { type: 'direct', api:{ read : testQuery.personSelect } } }); Person.load(45,{callback: function(record) {}}); // results in // sends this {"action":"testQuery","method":"personSelect","data":[{"id":45}],"type":"rpc","tid":1} // check the "id":45 // should be // "someId":45
can check this just adding a belongsTo association and run getSomething(), and check the request
it doesnt need to be a belongsTo to the same model, just doing this to show less code
... code same provider ... Ext.define('Person', { extend: 'Ext.data.Model', fields: [ {name:'someId' , type:'int'}, {name:'parentId' , type:'int'} ], belongsTo : [ {model: 'Person', foreignKey:'parentId', getterName : 'getParent'} ], idProperty: 'someId', proxy: { type: 'direct', api:{ read : testQuery.personSelect } } }); var p = Ext.create('Person',{ someId : 1, parentId : 3 }) p.getParent(); // sends this {"action":"testQuery","method":"personSelect","data":[{"id":3}],"type":"rpc","tid":1} // check the "id":3 // should be // "someId":3
Source of problem
one part seems to come from src/data/model
Ext.define('Ext.data.Model',{ ........ inheritableStatics: { ........ load: function(id, config) { ........ config = Ext.applyIf(config, { action: 'read', id : id }); ........ } } });
tested to change that to the current configured idProperty
var cfg = { action : 'read' } cfg[this.prototype.idProperty] = id; config = Ext.applyIf(config, cfg);
because doing this the request now looks like
i guess reader didnt find the key "id" in the config.
so dunno but theres the problem i think.

This bug is still present in 4.2.1 - I just wasted a couple hours tracking it down. Specifically, the problem occurs with the static Model.load() method. Doing a regular record.save() works correctly.
I haveCode:
idProperty: '_id'

El33t's Pre-W33kend Post: The Return!Written by: / / 6 Comments
We're already a couple weeks into the New Year so it's high time we started talking about those hazy, crazy weekend days of Summer once again!
A few members of El33tonline discuss their plans for the next two days, but what we're most interested in is finding out what you'll be busy with this weekend – any plans for games to be played, movies to be watched, friends to be visited and relaxation to be had? Let us know!
"We're back, from Cyberspace… anyway, it is the W33kend again. I am so happy I can cry.
Tonight it is all about Battlefield Friday and with the new patch, to see what has been improved and see if my kill count will grow. Tomorrow I will go for a nice long run in the morning (anyone can join me if they want) and then I will be packing up more boxes for our move in a couple of weeks. Then I will fill out the rest of the w33kend with some Far Cry 3 and maybe some Dead Space 3 co-op. There will also be some family time to enjoy.
Have a good one and see you all online."
"If the sunny weather Durbs is currently enjoying holds out then I'll be at the beach tomorrow floating in the tranquil waters of Umdloti's natural tidal pool. Other than that, I hope to finish the original Broken Sword on iPad and wrap up the audiobook version of The Wolf of Wall Street which is approximately seven times longer than the movie…
I hope everyone has eased into the new year by now, and that 2014 holds the key to your continued or future success!"
"Brace yourselves people, it's 49 weeks until Christmas! Get yourselves ready!
I'm back in the full swing of things at work – filling the post of a retired colleague too so I am quite busy at the moment… only have time to squeeze in a bit of FTL here and there in anticipation of the iPad release! Managed to unlock two ships in one session and finished the game on Normal so I'm on a roll!
My poor (old) dog is really sick which is depressing enough to not inspire me to want to play any computer games this weekend so I will be spending the weekend visiting him at my mom's – he was a 21st birthday present from my (now wife, then) girlfriend and he's been a special mutt since I reared him as a pup. It's always sad when our pets get old and sick.
Have a great weekend and enjoy the luverly weather!"
"With the Summer heat truly dialling up here in Durban (with the blazing Summer Sun and bright blue Summer Skies not far behind), it would be a crime not to soak up some rays and spend some time enjoying those great outdoors, so I don't intend to get on the wrong side of the Summer Law this weekend.
I still haven't got around to playing the first episode of The Walking Dead: Season 2, though, and my Resogun high scores could use a little attention this weekend, too, so those will keep me occupied in-between rounds of Battlefield 4 and DmC.
Hope you have a terrific weekend, everybody!"
Your turn! What are your plans for the weekend?

Let's say I have a spinning steel ball that I have somehow managed to be completely free in all axes of movement. If I fire a BB at it with enough force on a north-south (to the ball) angle, what will happen. Will it start to wobble by a certain amount? Will it change it's orientation and then stay there? I welcome complex answers, but please summarize them in laymen's terms as well.
When I say north-south, I'm referring to the earth so that means it would be fired along a plane of the axis of the spin at about 45 degrees (or whatever) to the axis if that makes any sense. In other words, not with or opposing the spin, just perpendicular to it at an angle.

Here is one of train station/ferry port. Although the station looks almost deserted here, it can be quite busy at times with tourists heading for Rothesay on the isle of Bute (which is on the firth of clyde, western scotland). As a child I used the station often for the annual summer holidays and there would be masses of people waiting for the next ferry over to Rothesay. Is much quieter and more peaceful now but can still get quite busy during the summer months. The photos for this pano were taken on a particularly quiet day as a fair porportion of the local population was off down south to watch a football match (that's soccer for those who don't speak english english).

Business, Culture & French Language - The American Business School Paris -The American Business School Paris
The Business, Culture & French Language program offers a unique opportunity to take business and culture courses taught in English, with the added option of French language instruction. The program is a perfect match for those who wish to prepare for a successful international business career in one of the most exciting and dynamic cities in the world.
During the program, students may choose one of two options:
Option A: Students focus solely on business and culture by taking two courses of 45 contact hours each.
Option B: Students combine one business or culture course of 45 contact hours and one French course of 60 contact hours.
Business and culture courses are held at the main campus of the American Business School Paris and are taught by host university faculty and visiting U.S. faculty from Towson University and University of Hawa'ii Manoa. While the program is open to international students, the vast majority of the participants are North American.
French language courses are held at the Institut Catholique de Paris and are taught by host university faculty. French courses are available at all language levels and the classrooms are composed of international students. All students taking a French language course must complete a two-part French language placement exam, one portion before departure for the program and the other upon arrival in Paris. The exam will indicate each student's language proficiency level, and will determine the course in which the student is eligible to enroll.
Please use the following only as a guideline to determine what each student's language level may be. Each semester/quarter is of COLLEGE-LEVEL French or the equivalent of:
True Beginning (A1-1)
Beginning (A1-2)
High Beginning (A2-1)
Low Intermediate (A2-2)
Intermediate (B1-1)
High Intermediate (B1-2)
Advanced (B2-1)
High Advanced (B2-2)
Superior (C1)
Please note that a student's French language level in France may be lower than his/her level in the U.S.
Transcripts for this program are issued by the American Business School Paris and by the Institut Catholique de Paris. Students selecting Option A will receive a transcript from the American Business School Paris. Students selecting Option B will receive two transcripts, one from the American Business School Paris and one from the Institut Catholique de Paris.
While, most universities will accept the official transcript issued by the American Business School Paris (ABSP) for coursework taken abroad, some universities or institutions do require a U. S. transcript in order to transfer credit. ISA has partnered with California Lutheran University to serve as the School of Record for those students requiring a U.S. transcript for the ABSP programs. If you have confirmed with your home university that you will require a U.S. transcript, or are interested in learning about this option, please contact your Program Manager or Site Specialist as soon as possible.
Gap students, 18 years old and older, are also eligible for this program.
Business and culture courses are taught by host university faculty and visiting faculty at the main campus of the American Business School Paris. French language courses are taught by host university faculty at the Institut Catholique de Paris in the Institut de Langue et de Culture Française (ILCF).
Minimum GPA
Students must have a minimum grade point average of 2.75.
Minimum Admissions Prerequisites
There is no language prerequisite for this program.
To participate in this program, students must be 18 years of age or older.

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

The hard work of some Edmonson County Middle School students could soon benefit the whole student body. ECMS is a finalist in the Samsung Solve for Tomorrow contest, giving them a chance to win $110,000 in new technology.
"When they notified me on Monday that we actually made it as a finalist I was so excited because we were 1 of 15 schools in the United States to make it to this point," says Library Media Specialist Charla Caudill.
Students brought their calculators and paper out to nearby Mammoth Cave National Park. Their research on wood frogs was filmed and submitted to the Samsung contest.
Students say its been a lot of work, but it beats sitting in a classroom.
"It's pretty fun because you get to talk to all kinds of people you never thought you would talk to before and I mean you get to go out there and get in the water," says student Nate Wilson.
"It's really good to know we are helping out the environment just by learning all this stuff and we are going to express it to the whole community later on," says student Morgan Ray.
This continued research may also bring success to students who want a future in the science industry.
"My dream is to become a pharmacist and definitely apply some of this," says one student.
The schools fate on the $110,000 rests on America's online votes. Staff says the money would be put to good use, further improving an already strong science program.
"I am hoping we can possibly get tablets for all of our students to use. I think that would be a wonderful asset because our students could actually perform experiments on those tablets in the classroom and it would help add more interaction with our lesson," says Caudill.
For students it's not all about winning. They know their calculations and tabulations have already made an impact.

In the decompositions I encountered so far, we all had orthogonal set of bases. For example in Singular Value Decomposition, we had orthogonal singular right and left vectors, in [discrete] cosine transform (or [discrete] fourier transform) we had again orthogonal bases.
To describe any vector $x \in \mathbb{C}^N$, we need to have $N$ independent set of basis vectors but independent doesn't necessarily mean orthogonal. My intentions behind selecting orthogonal vectors are as follows:
- The solution is not unique for $x$ if the basis are not orthogonal.
- It is easy to find the solution numerically by projecting $x$ onto each vector and this solution doesn't depend on the order of the bases. Otherwise, it depends on the order.
- If we are talking about some set of vectors, they might be correlated in the original space, but uncorrelated in the transformd space which might be important when analyzing the data, in dimensionality reduction or compression.
I'm trying to understand the big picture. Do you think that I am right with these? Do you have any suggestions, what is the main reason for selecting orthogonal bases?

I'm looking for brewing software that helps with record-keeping, calculations, inventory, and/or recipes. Across any platform (Windows/Mac OS X/Linux), what brewing software is available, and what are the pros and cons of each?
BeerSmith is an excellent brewing software. It offers easy to understand recipe creation and a brewday instruction sheet. It also allows for different equipment setups. Recipes generally follow style guidelines.
Take a look at BrewBlogger.
According to developer:
I'm busy giving BrewBlogger a try now and I'm pretty impressed.
In the commercial space, BeerSmith is quite popular as is ProMash.
There are quite a few available in the open source space but the only one that I've used is BrewTarget (Windows, Mac and Linux)
BeerCalculus is really nice to put your recipes together. Since it's a web app, it's platform agnostic. I don't believe it does anything like inventory management. I've used BeerSmith in the past, and it's really nice and worth the money if you need inventory management.
I use BeerAlchemy (Mac/iPhone only), and it does pretty much anything I need, including keeping track of inventory. The iPhone version is really neat, and syncs to the Mac-version. The only thing I miss is listing batches by date, I use a spreadsheet on Google Docs for that.
I can't say enough about BrewPal! iPhone app (which is great because I don't brew in front of my computer). Only $0.99! Built in mash (fly, batch, decoction, partial, or steep) and boil timers (so I can enjoy as many homebrews as I want and not forget to add the 15 min hops, irish moss, or wort chiller...).
I'm a developer and was going to write my own just to learn how to write iPhone apps and learn about all of the math that can go into brewing, but this just did everything I was hoping for and more that I never wrote it. Maybe write something similar for Android.
Doesn't have inventory management features but I'm not that advanced anyways.
I have used BeerTools Pro quite successfully on Windows. They have a free web-based version on their site as well, but it limits the number of ingredients you can add and lacks the mash schedule calculator which I used quite a lot.
I stopped using it so much when I moved from a Windows laptop to an Ubuntu laptop and found that BeerTools doesn't run under Wine.
If you're brewing wine, take a look at Fermsoft's Amphora software. They also offer an online wine-brew logging system which I've just started using.
I asked a similar question on BrewAdvice.com the other day:
Is there an online equivalent of Beer Smith?
Specifically, I asked about online applications, because I'd much rather use a web application then a desktop application.
One that was mentioned in that thread that was not already mentioned here is http://brewershub.com/. I haven't had a chance to play around with it extensively, but it looks nice and it appears to have a rich set of features. It sounds like it was just launched recently. Maybe one more to check out!
EDIT: After looking at this more, it looks like it DOES let you enter recipes, but it doesn't appear to do any calculations for you, which is a little lame. However, it looks like it does allow you to import BeerXML files, which are generated by programs like BeerSmith, so I guess you could create a recipe in BeerSmith and import it here.
For Windows. It's free, easy to use, uncomplicated. I like being able to enter recipes by percentage too.
Brewtarget, Open source software, allows you to create, scale, and add notes to recipes, ingredients ..etc
you can use it on mac windows and linux, or if you want build from source on your solaris machine.
For me I sync the Database on several machines using Dropbox, but you can use almost any file sharing service to keep your changes synced up on multiple machines.
Check out http://www.brewernauts.com/
I just made this in the last couple months, it has calculations, exporting/importing, recipes, ingredients, and a historical brewing log of each beer you brewed and how it differed from the recipe you were attempting to follow.
ProMash runs under Wine, if that qualifies as running in Linux.

This photo released by the Syrian official news agency SANA shows Syrian rescue teams investigating the scene after an explosion in Aleppo, Syria, Sunday, March 18, 2012. An explosion ripped through a residential neighborhood in the northern Syrian city of Aleppo on Sunday and the state news agency said it was a "terrorist bombing." The report by SANA gave no information on casualties in what appeared to be the second attack in two days on cities where President Bashar Assad's regime enjoys strong support. (AP Photo/SANA)
Sbeineh, Syria (CNN) -- Sbeineh was once a thriving town on the southern outskirts of Damascus. Residents of the Syrian capital came to buy their furniture here and many factories, now abandoned, still line the main street into town.
But the grinding, two-and-a-half-year war here has reduced Sbeineh to rubble. Its residents first fled when the town fell into the hands of rebels battling to bring an end to the reign of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. But in early November the Syrian army reclaimed Sbeineh after a long and costly siege.
The military pounded rebel positions with tanks, artillery and heavy machine guns for weeks in the lead-up to the siege. Assad's men then raided the town, taking it back house by house. Various opposition groups that had occupied Sbeineh blamed each other for losing the battle, saying some rebel fighters had put up very little resistance against government troops.

We toured the destroyed town with a detachment from the Syrian army led by a soldier who goes by the name of Abu Aksam.
"Is this their freedom?" Abu Aksam said, walking past a pock-marked building. "Everything is broken."
The soldiers walked us through a block of interconnected houses, where the rebels who occupied Sbeineh for nearly a year punched holes through the walls in order to move safely from apartment to apartment, rather than fall prey to a sniper's scope out in the streets.
Government soldiers also uncovered a series of tunnels that the rebels were using to get supplies towards the front line. In one apartment we find a huge hole in the ground leading down to a tunnel used to smuggle weapons and ammunition to a sniper's vantage point at the other end.

Bulgaria: Coping with Syrian refugees
"Our soldiers took heavy casualties from this position," Abu Aksam said. "It was very difficult to get this done, but we did it, and we will keep going until the end because we believe in our country."
Syrian troops showed us various locations in Sbeineh they claim served as headquarters for rebel groups ranging from the moderate Free Syrian Army to the Islamist Jabhat al-Nusra. Aksam also took us to a room that he says served as weapons-manufacturing workshop for opposition fighters. Aksam says rebels used these improvised mini-factories to make mortars, rockets and improvised bombs.
"They used the tools to make mortars and rockets and used gas cylinders to make very large bombs," he said, standing amid the debris inside the room.
The government says Sbeineh was vital for resupplying its fighters in the southern outskirts of Damascus. Losing areas around the capital dealt a heavy blow to the Syrian regime's efforts to win the war, and the government has made it a priority to take the suburbs back.
The Syrian army's victory at Sbeineh was a strategic triumph for the government as it tries to unseat rebels from the large swaths of territory they've taken east and south of the capital. But while the soldiers rejoice at their hard-fought win, the real losers are the citizens of this once vibrant suburb who won't be able to return any time soon.

In the end, you must do what's best for you and your family. But first, you need the facts to make an informed decision. Here's some straight talk about breastfeeding that I hope will help.
Barrier: You think that you may flunk breastfeeding.
Solution: You're afraid, and that's to be expected. But you can't fail at something you've never tried. Stop listening to friends and relatives that did not have a good experience with nursing. Stick with health professionals and seasoned breastfeeding pros, including experienced mothers, who can provide you with facts while offering support.
Barrier: You have to work at breastfeeding.
Solution: It may be a natural function, but it doesn't always come naturally at the start (neither did toilet training). Both you and baby will probably go through a period of adjustment as you learn the breastfeeding basics, but it's worth it. Many babies and their moms get the hang of nursing soon after birth and go on to have a successful relationship that lasts for months afterward.
Barrier: You are concerned about producing enough milk.
Solution: Not to worry. The more you nurse, the more milk you make. Some women do not have enough glandular tissue to produce adequate milk to nourish their babies, but this condition is rare. Even if you think you are small breasted and can't produce enough milk, don't be concerned. Your breasts can make just as much milk as larger ones.
Barrier: Inverted or flat nipples.
Solution: Many times, inverted or flat nipples don't hinder breastfeeding. Wearing breast shields during your third trimester and between feedings once the baby is born may help, so ask your doctor about this.
Barrier: Breastfeeding is messy.
Solution: Nursing is not always a tidy business. Let's be frank. Your breasts leak, and they are capable of shooting milk clear across the room! When does that happen? When a baby suckling at the breast suddenly stops but your milk flow continues. Invest in lots of breast pads to take care of any leaks, and wear appropriate clothing, that is, two layers, to disguise minor leaks. Each time you nurse, have on hand a cloth or towel you won't mind getting wet. Cloth diapers work well to clean up during and after nursing.
Barrier: Breastfeeding hurts.
Solution: Nursing may be a bit uncomfortable at the start because your breasts are not accustomed to a baby's powerful suckling. I had this problem a couple of times, and I used acetaminophen, patience, and perseverance to overcome it. The initial pain you may have with breastfeeding should go away within days to a week, however. In the meantime, ask your licensed health care provider about over-the-counter pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort. If breast pain persists, improper positioning is most likely the cause, although there may be other reasons. Here's why: Your baby gets milk by pressing on the areola, the dark area surrounding the nipple, not from the nipple itself. Baby must be encouraged to open her mouth very wide to get as much of the areola into her mouth as possible. If she doesn't open wide enough, she will end up suckling on the nipple, and you will end up in pain.
Mastitis could also be a source of breast pain. It's a bacterial infection that usually develops in just one of your breasts. You feel tired and achy, like you've got the flu. You do not have to stop nursing, however. In fact, breastfeeding helps clear up the infection by draining the breast. You doctor may prescribe antibiotics that are safe to take during nursing.
The absence of fever combined with reduced milk flow and a sore breast may mean you have a plugged milk duct rather than mastitis. Breast tenderness may be treatable by massaging the affected area, frequent nursing, and applying moist heat. In any case, call your doctor immediately.

Box Score | Game Notes
SAN ANTONIO (March 23, 2013) – The San Antonio Rampage (27-28-1-6) struck twice in the first period but ultimately could not hold off the Oklahoma City Barons (30-23-2-7), as the visitors skated away with a 3-2 victory Saturday night at the AT&T Center in front on 8,341 fans.
John McFarland tallied his third goal in as many games, while Dov Grumet-Morris stopped 30 of 33 shots, but three unanswered goals by the Barons sunk the Rampage. San Antonio finished the 12-game season series against the Barons with a 4-6-0-2 record.
Seven of the last eight Rampage games have been decided by one goal, with San Antonio owning a 3-3-0-2 record in that span.
The Rampage struck first at 6:34 of the first period thanks to a bang-bang passing play. Jack Combs brought the puck into the offensive zone down the middle and found Evan Barlow down the left wing. Barlow corralled the pass and fired it through the middle to rookie Jared Gomes, who smashed the puck into the net.
All three players who contributed to the goal are on point scoring streaks. Barlow is now on a four-game streak (one goal, three assists), while Gomes (one goal, three assists) and Combs (two goals, two assists) are on three-game streaks.
McFarland extended the Rampage lead to 2-0 when he lit the lamp at 11:56 of the opening frame. The rookie winger banged home a pass at the top of the crease from Scott Timmins. Jed Ortmeyer also collected an assist on the goal.
The Barons made it a one-goal game with a goal at 4:43 of the second period with an extra attacker on the ice due to a delayed penalty being called on the Rampage. Grumet-Morris made the initial save, but the rebound found the stick of Taylor Fedun, who slid the puck under the pad of the Rampage netminder.
Oklahoma City tied the game at 2-2 heading into the third period thanks to a tally from Philippe Cornet at 14:58 while on the power play. Going into the third period tied wasn't necessarily a bad thing for the Rampage, as the club owned a 13-2-0-1 record when tied after 40 minutes entering the game.
Tony Rajala tallied the Barons' second power-play goal of the night at 8:58 of the third period to give Oklahoma City a 3-2 lead. Rajala charged down the left wing with a full head of steam and faked a shot to freeze Grumet-Morris before depositing the puck into the net from a sharp angle.
The Rampage had their third power-play opportunity of the game with 59 seconds remaining, which allowed San Antonio to pull their goalie to have a 6-on-4 advantage. But they were unable to solve Barons netminder Yann Danis with the two-man advantage.
San Antonio failed to cash in on the power play for only the fourth time in the last 14 games, as the Rampage went 0-for-3 with the man advantage. Oklahoma City went 2-for-3 on the power play and outshot the Rampage, 33-18.
The Rampage continue their homestand tomorrow (Sunday) with a 4:30 p.m. tilt against the Rochester Americans at AT&T Center. Tickets for remaining Rampage home games start at $10 can be purchased at the AT&T Center Southeast Box Office, by calling a Rampage representative at 210-444-5554 or online at sarampage.com.

GoodThis is a good product and does what it is supposed to do. I bought this to be used with the Canon EOS 60D and it works flawlessly with it. Just like the camera button when you half press the button then the auto-focus gets engaged and on fully pressing it the shutter is released. There is also an option to keep the button pressed (for bulb mode) by sliding it forward.

Asian Brown Cloud
Okay, this is a "Global" "Warming" thread but I'm going to try a different approach instead of the burnt path:
Let me start off with a few important points:
Al Gore
He frankly doesn't really know what he's talking about.
For starters, "Global Warming" is in a very loose sense the correct word to use, but it has also caused a lot of misunderstanding of what the hell the phenomenon actually is.
A more correct term would be "Climate Displacement" or "Global Climate Dispersion" or, simply, "Climate Change" because the act of the Globe, or areas of the Globe "warming" is both correct and incorrect.
An Inconvenient Truth is honestly one of the worst documentaries ever made for the express purpose of education. It was arrogant, bloated, and seemed to want to focus on that idiot's life more than it wanted to educate people. Fact is, the movie hurt the education of Climate Change more than anyone could have hoped. It also doesn't help that it failed to explain instances of actual human-made climate change happening right now, but I'll get to that later.
The man who supposedly created the Internet is nearly the sole reason his own movement is falling out under his feet. Now, let me try to bring a little bit of light to the issue in the very room he broke all the lights in.
Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, etc
Yes, the media but I'll focus on 1 reason. A reason that Democrats and Republicans and every other skeptic seem to love to throw around:
"Snow is evidence for the non-existence of Climate Change."
I see this with News Commentators all the time. "Its snowing in Washington. Al Gore must be crying!" Its a particularly favorite idea thrown around in a bogglingly uneducated Fox News rooms.
Inconvenient Truth got a lot of things skewed, but it explained enough that if you read up on the actual issue for even a few minutes you'd know the idea that Snow as evidence against is invalid. Even if you don't believe in Global Warming, using this excuse is facepalm worthy. If you're going to argue against something it is important to be educated to a certain extent in the topic you are... well, trying to disprove.
Why? Look up mini-ice ages created by Volcanoes. Global "Warming" does not mean that snow stops appearing; if anything, it means that Snow starts popping up more often in places it really isn't supposed to... like Jamul in Southern California 2 years ago. Keep reading down and I'll try to explain.
Al Gore's Apocalypse Prediction
An Inconvient Truth basically starts off with this man telling me this is the worst Climate Change in history. While that is correct in only 1 context, it is not correct in any of the contexts he was trying to explain. Like, his Co2 theory. Or that stupid little chart he made in which he lifted himself high in the sky to make a point.
I'll let this Gif do the rest of the talking
That is a graph of data taken from Ice Core samples dating back over 100,000 years ago, more than 50,000 years before the first of human civilization. You can see the previous Ice Age, along with the boosts and drops of temperature. Seeing as Humans can't of done much before about 200 years ago, its pretty clear the Earth has its own way of doing things.
The Climate naturally changes over time. Its had everything from natural ice ages to global ice ages caused by rocks the size of several footballs fields hitting the earth. Our "we're ruining the earth" isn't as valid as a better slogan "we're destroying our lungs".
Because, what we've been doing is not so much harming the planet as it is harming ourselves, namely our largest and least "green" cities.
What is "Global Warming"
YouTube Video
Essentially, "Global Warming" as Gore explains it is when Carbon Dioxide is created by emissions from cars, factories, fires, etc. Essentially a mix of human and earth made. Earth being volcanoes and such.
These greenhouse gases collect in the atmosphere, collecting solar rays and overall heating the Earth because some of the heat is trapped in the greenhouses gases and cannot escape off into space. It is a whole lot more complicated than that, but the point of the thread isn't really to discuss this rendition of the theory.
Why is this a problem? Because, well, that changes the temp at the Caps. Why at the Caps? Because the Caps are made of ice. Why does this matter? Because a sheet of ice is essentially a giant mirror. Sunlight hits the ice mirror and the heat and light are reflected back into space which is why the caps stay consistently cool for the most part and aren't just melted by the sun (this also has to do with the earths axis and rotations, etc, but details unneeded right now).
If you have greenhouse gases, however, above this mirror it only helps to heat the atmosphere and... melt the caps.
Again, why is this a problem.
Because, the caps are made of fresh water. Cold fresh water. Which is bad. Why is this bad? Because, this cold fresh water entered the natural movement of the ocean and starts to affect currents. Why does this affect currents?
Currents are able to move in much the same way smoke moves through a house in a fire. Heat rises, and cool air falls. This is the same with the ocean. The warmer top water is moved by the moving cooler water underneath and vice versa. A temperature pump. This movement of cool and warm air powers the currents, which help power the wind around the earth, the movement of sea life, and ocean driven storms like... well, most of them.
What happens when colder water, especially fresh water, gets into the current is it starts to drastically change the ocean temperature and thus... you guessed it, the currents. If too much of the caps melt, the oceans get cooler and, well, they start doing weird things.
Because, once the cap are melted down there is less mirror reflection of the sun... which means there is more heat going directly into the oceans. The changing currents means changing wind patterns, and a dispersion of colder and warmer water which does things like forming a Cyclone in the South Atlantic Tropics.
Here is a video explaining against this:
YouTube Video
He makes some valid points, but misses something that Gore didn't explain well either: Wind patterns are indeed affected by changing ocean temperatures because, well, much of the wind on earth is created by ocean temperatures. Arguably, this is a freak storm but while both sides have valid points on the subject there is currently no consensus between scientists on why the hell this would ever happen.
This man also brings up the point that "Global Warming" would not do this, but, as I stated above... "Global Warming", or "Climate Change" is not disproved by lower temperatures. In fact, it actually helps further a better theory which I'll explain below.
Everything I have put above in this section is pretty much based upon Gore's Carbon Dioxide theory, which, in his mind, effects the entire planet.
One of the more valid points he makes is that the caps are indeed melting. Sure, Washington is under snow and so on but what is happening in the United States is not the same as something happening elsewhere. Climate dispersion and change is the name of the game, not warming, which is why the entirety of Fox News are a bunch of insufferable morons.
Here are some recent pictures:
Show spoiler
(hidden content -
However, the ice has also been recovering lately and the melting has slowed
Now, I'm not just gonna leave you all at that.
Throw Al Gore and the Global Warming business out the Window. Lets look at selective Climate Change, and how exactly humans are not so much messing with the world as much as we're really screwing ourselves over.
The Asian Brown Cloud
Ladies and Gentlemen, I present the Asian Brown Cloud: One of the strongest evidence of Human Climate Change. Know what that is? That is a storm of 75%+ human pollution over India and much of South Asia. The cloud is associated with the winter monsoon (November/December to April) during which there is no rain to wash pollutants from the air.
Yes, you heard right. That is a storm of pollution.
"Its just brown air, right"
The cloud appears as a giant brown stain hanging in the air over much of South Asia and the Indian Ocean every year between January and March, possibly also during earlier and later months.
So, why is it brown?
* black carbon and ash
* sulfates
* nitrates
* mineral dust
* 75%+ of the cloud is man-made
What does this cloud do? Why, it kills people and changes the weather.
It is also currently messing with the weather in the Himalayas and melting its glaciers:
The melting ice in the Himalayas also means less fresh water, which will leave millions with either no water or massive flooding.
Does this effect people at all?
* significant reduction of solar radiation to the surface by as much as 15%
This is caused by the effects of Solar Dimming
Which in turn...
* altered regional monsoon patterns (less sea evaporation from sunlight means less rain)
* less rain in northwest India, Pakistan, Afganistan, and western PRC by as much as 40%
* more rain and flooding in other areas
Increase in rainfall over the Top End and Kimberley. A CSIRO study has found that by displacing the thermal equator southwards via cooling of the air over East Asia, the monsoon which brings most of the rain to these regions has been intensified and displaced southward... to Australia.
Oh, and that monsoon is supposed to go through South Asia and give water to 2 billion people in one way or another.
* reduction of photosythesis (drop in agricultural productivity)
* acid deposition and plant damage, killing more than 20% of crops.
* respiratory ailments
"HONG KONG, China -- A dense blanket of pollution, dubbed the "Asian Brown Cloud," is hovering over South Asia, with scientists warning it could kill millions of people in the region, and pose a global threat. In the biggest-ever study of the phenomenon, 200 scientists warned that the cloud, estimated to be two miles (three kilometers) thick, is responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths a year from respiratory disease. By slashing the sunlight that reaches the ground by 10 to 15 percent, the choking smog has also altered the region's climate, cooling the ground while heating the atmosphere, scientists said on Monday."
Oh, but they're just silly Asians. How can they hurt me?
Ummm.... yeah, turns out the wind from our oceans (you know, the ones that the Caps are messing with) is taking parts of this cloud from China and helping it drift into the United States every year. Almost a third of the air over Los Angeles and San Francisco can be traced directly to Asia. With it comes up to three-quarters of the black carbon particulate pollution that reaches the West Coast.
Oh, and funny story... West Bengal has stopped experiencing Winter because of this Cloud.
And this, all around the world, has in turn increased the effects of Ocean Acidification:
Which is killing Coral, Algaes, Plankton, etc... and Guess what ladies and gentlemen:
of the world's Oxygen is created by Plankton, who's numbers are currently falling because of Ocean Acidification... due to pollution clouds and Carbon Dioxide Emissions such as the one over South Asia. Clouds like this also block sunlight, which is essential for a great deal of ocean life... like Plankton.
And all those forests they are burning for their fuel that is currently being burned into the Cloud? Yeah, turns out you need rainforests and forests in general to control inland winds and oxygen/Carbon dioxide levels. People love to say "yeah, but its plant food!" but it can't be food to anything if the forest has been burned down, and thus you, yet again, get changing climate inland.
Aaaannddd... big surprise, similar effects are seen in Texas and other highly industrial areas of the United States.
What does any of this mean?
What this essentially means is that Humans can and do have effects on the weather. Is it the world sinking Apocalypse that Al Gore set out to preach?
Well... not really. I doubt Florida is going to be swallowed by the ocean like he predicts within a few decades.
Al Gore's "Global Warming" can be more easily attributed to the Natural Cycle of the earth, but the ideas behind it can and do show on smaller than "Global" scale. The Asian Brown Cloud kills people, and messes with their weather pattern and it has gotten big enough to mess with the West Coast of North America.
Regardless, this cloud kills people. A lot of people, and threatens millions of people both inside and outside Southern Asia. Remember the pollution in China for the Olympics? It was deemed unsafe for athletes and they were given a period of time to clean up their city beforehand.
An Inconvenient Truth may have been an ego trip by him, but Al Gore's ego doesn't build that cloud, give Texans asthma, and leave parts of South Asia without clean water and air that kills hundreds of thousands of people every year. Al Gore's ego doesn't reroute a monsoon that has been on time every year since, and is currently off course because a pollution cloud has
altered the direction of the Temperature Equator on the earth.
Human Pollution does affect Climate Change in select areas and does affect the lives of hundreds of millions of people. And, if you're still convinced that Pollution clouds and Carbon Dioxide can't make somewhere "colder", then I can only point you to the mini-ice ages that appear whenever a large Volcano goes off. I don't need humans to prove my point; Nature can do anything we do better.
And that is all I can fit into this post for now. If you've gotten this far, then even if you don't agree I respect you for at least reading what I have to say. Done my best to educate on the subject, but I'm open for corrections from other people.
Thanks for reading.

And here I was expecting some meteorological phenomenon involving millions of Lynk Formers floating in the air....
Seriously, the global warming argument is irrelevent to me. It's as simple as this--if you foul the place you live in with pollution, bad things are going to happen to you. For all the problems the EPA can cause with a few regulations I consider draconic, they are the only reason that we in the US aren't suffering the same horrendous pollution issues that Asians have to endure.

Seriously, the global warming argument is irrelevent to me. It's as simple as this--if you foul the place you live in with pollution, bad things are going to happen to you. For all the problems the EPA can cause with a few regulations I consider draconic, they are the only reason that we in the US aren't suffering the same horrendous pollution issues that Asians have to endure.
My favorite comment on the entire environmentalist scare tactics is from Michael Chrichton in Jurrasic Park, when someone uses the environmentalist's catch phrase of saving the planet' the character replies, 'The planet can take anything we can throw at it. It isn't the planet we need to save, it's ourselves, because we can't surive it'
'To argue with those who have renounced the use and authority of reason is as futile as to administer medicine to the dead.' Now who said that?

Ah, Canada Day. 1 July 1867: that great day when the British North America Act was signed, establishing an independent Parliament for Canada. Well, independent in the sense that Canada was still part of the British Commonwealth. And the Queen of England was still the head of state. And the Governor General was the royal representative in Canada. With Americans trying to reconstruct their country after the Civil War, Canadians adhered to the principles "peace, order, and good government." Makes your pulse quicken, doesn't it?

The RoSPA program recognizes commitment to accident and ill-health prevention and is open to businesses and organizations of all sizes from both the UK and overseas.
The global engineering and construction business of Foster
Wheeler has been awarded, for the sixth successive year, the
prestigious Order of Distinction Award for occupational health
and safety by the UKs Royal Society for the Prevention of
Accidents (RoSPA).
Foster Wheeler said it also received a 20th consecutive
gold award for outstanding health and safety performance on UK
and international projects.
The Order of Distinction is RoSPAs highest achievement
award and is presented to those companies which have attained
at least 15 consecutive RoSPA gold awards for
outstanding health and safety performance.
We take great pride in once again receiving the
prestigious RoSPA Order of Distinction Award, said
Filippo Abbà, CEO of Foster Wheeler.
This award reflects our companys commitment to our
Realizing Zero strategy designed to engender
a zero-harm safety culture and confirms that our health,
safety, environmental and security (HSES)
performance is underpinned by world-class systems. This latest
award provides continued assurance that Foster Wheeler is truly
a leader when it comes to HSES management.
Dating back 57 years, the RoSPA Awards scheme is the largest
and longest-running program of its kind in the UK. It
recognizes commitment to accident and ill-health prevention and
is open to businesses and organizations of all types and sizes
from across the UK and overseas.
The scheme not only looks at accident records, but also
entrants overarching health and safety management
systems, including practices such as leadership and workforce
"RoSPA firmly believes that organizations that demonstrate
commitment to continuous improvement in accident and ill health
prevention deserve recognition," said David Rawlins,
RoSPAs awards manager.
"Foster Wheeler has shown that it is committed to striving for
such continuous improvement, and we are delighted to honor it
through the presentation of an award," he added.

Jerry Sandusky, the former Penn State assistant football coach charged with sexually abusing boys, leaves the Centre County Courthouse in Bellefonte, Pa., Tuesday, Dec. 13, 2011, after waiving his preliminary hearing. The decision moves him toward a trial on charges of child sex abuse. At least some of his 10 accusers had been expected to testify at Tuesday's hearing. (AP Photo/Matt Rourke)
Sandusky could face life in prison after conviction on 45 counts of child sex abuse
His attorney said he has been working on a statement in prison
The scandal led to the firing of Penn State head football coach Joe Paterno
BELLEFONTE, Pennsylvania (CNN) -- Nearly a year after the Penn State scandal erupted, leading to the firing of iconic head football coach Joe Paterno and the ouster of the university's longtime president, the public will learn what punishment is to be doled out to convicted pedophile Jerry Sandusky.
The 68-year-old former defensive coordinator could be sentenced to life behind bars.
Jurors determined in June that Sandusky used his access to university facilities and a foundation he founded for under-privileged youth to sexually abuse 10 boys over a 15-year period.
His attorney, Joe Amendola, said Monday that his client, who is being held in the Centre County, Pennsylvania, jail, has been working on a statement that he plans to read before the court.
The statement is expected to be a reassertion of his proclaimed innocence, according to co-counsel Karl Rominger. He has been advised against speaking freely.
"Contrition without admission is always my advice," Rominger said.
On June 22, Sandusky was convicted on 45 counts of child sex abuse, ranging from corruption of minors to involuntary deviate sexual intercourse, which were laid out in graphic testimony by his accusers over the course of the less-than-two-week trial.
His attorneys will have 10 days after the sentencing to appeal the decision.
At least of three of Sandusky's victims are expected to be in attendance on Tuesday, according to their attorneys. Two of them plan to address the former coach directly, while the third is expected to have a statement read by prosecutors.
The statement from the person identified in court as Victim No.4 "will convey anger," said attorney Benjamin Andreozzi. "He is nowhere near forgiving Sandusky."
But attorney Thomas Kline, who represents Victim No. 5 in a civil suit, said his client "believes this will be a final chapter in the Sandusky matter."
During the trial, which garnered national attention and cast a shadow on Penn State's heralded football program, the 23-year-old victim testified that he was only 13 when Sandusky sexually abused him in a university shower.
That account is separate from a 2001 incident about which graduate assistant Mike McQueary testified, saying that he saw the former coach pressed up against the back of a boy in the shower room of the Lasch Football Building.
Prosecutors described during the trial how Sandusky showered with the boy, using locker room "soap fights" as a pretext for abuse.
Sandusky's attorneys say they plan to appeal the guilty verdict, and will argue that the jury's opinions had been tainted by a prosecution reference to a disturbing interview their client did with NBC's Bob Costas prior to the trial.
Members of the defense team have also maintained that they were denied sufficient time to prepare.
Less than a month after Sandusky's conviction, former FBI Director Louis Freeh released his university-funded report that blamed Paterno, President Graham Spanier, suspended Athletic Director Tim Curley and ex-Vice President Gary Schultz for taking part in a cover-up to avoid bad publicity.
Freeh also said Paterno could have stopped the attacks had he done more, though neither McQueary, Sandusky nor Paterno -- who died in January -- were interviewed by his investigators.
Attorneys for Spanier blasted the review, calling it a "blundering, indefensible indictment" and "a flat-out distortion of facts" that was "infused with bias and innuendo."
In July, the NCAA imposed sanctions against Penn State, including a $60 million fine, scholarship reductions, the vacating of 112 wins, five years' probation and a bowl ban for four years.

A theorem (I do unfortunately not remember to whom it is due) states that there exists a finitely presented group containing a subgroup isomorphic to the additive group of rational numbers. Can somebody give an explicit construction?
An explicit example of a finitely presented group containing a subgroup isomorphic to $(\mathbb Q,+)$.
It is known [Ould Houcine, Abderezak. Embeddings in finitely presented groups which preserve the center. J. Algebra 307 (2007), no. 1, 1--23. MR2278040 (2007i:20043)] that there is a finitely presented group which has $\mathbb Q$ as center, which is a very nice result! Indeed, the paper shows that (i) every countable group $G$ embeds into a finitely generated group $K$ such that $Z(G)=Z(K)$ and (ii) Every finitely generated recursively presented group $G$ embeds into a finitely presented group $K$ such that $Z(G)=Z(K)$.
I had originally started the answer with the following:
but then retracted it because Rotman actually states (and proves) Higman's theorem for finitely generated finitely presented groups, and $\mathbb Q$ is not finitely generated!
Later, though, Jack Schmidt observed than in fact Higman does deal with the countably generated case in the original paper (please refer to his comments below for details) so the retracted text should be unretracted.
Every recursively presented (even infinitely generated) group can be effectively embedded into a finitely generated recursively presented group either by using HNN extensions (as in Higman-Neumann-Neumann original paper) or by using small cancelation quotients of the free group. Every finitely generated recursively presented group can be effectively embedded into a finitely presented group by the Higman embedding theorem. The finite presentation is explicitly constructed using any Turing machine recognizing the set of relations of the finitely generated group. This means that one can explicitly write down a finite presentation of a group containing $\mathbb Q$. The number of generators and the number of relations will depend (linearly) on the number of commands in the Turing machine recognizing the defining relations of $\mathbb Q$. The real question is to find a "natural" finitely presented group containing $\mathbb Q$. That is not known so far. There are finitely presented groups containing close relatives of $\mathbb Q$. The Baumslag-Solitar group $BS(1,d)$ contains the group of $d$-adic rationals. And the R.Thompson group $V$ contains the group ${\mathbb Q}/{\mathbb Z}$.
Update 1. The first step can be simplified for $\mathbb Q$. For every $n\ge 2$ take the group $G_n=BS(1,n)=\langle a_n,b_n\mid b_n^{-1}a_nb_n=a_n^n\rangle $. The direct product $\Pi G_n$ contains $\mathbb Q$. Add two generators $t,s$ to the presentation of the direct product and all relations $t^{-1}a_it=a_{i+1}$, $s^{-1}b_is=b_{i+1}$ for all $i\ge 1$. That is a finitely generated (by $a_1,b_1, t,s$) recursively presented group containing $\mathbb Q$. The presentation of that group can be easily recognized by a Turing machine. Then the Higman construction gives a presentation of a finitely presented group containing $\mathbb Q$. The presentation will contain something like a 100 generators and 100 relations (I did not compute exact numbers).
Update 2. In Valiev, M. K. Universal group with twenty-one defining relations. Discrete Math. 17 (1977), no. 2, 207–213, Valiev constructed an explicit presentation with 21 defining relations of a group containing all finitely presented groups, hence containing $\mathbb Q$ (earlier a 26-relator example was constructed by Boone and Collins). The difference with the example in Update 1 is that it is hard to describe an embedding of $\mathbb Q$ in that group. That embedding is defined by the Turing machine describing a presentation of $\mathbb Q$.
I believe this is unknown, but mostly for metamathematical reasons.
The major result in this area is Higman's embedding theorem that a finitely generated and recursively presented group is embeddable in a finitely presented group. While $\mathbb{Q}$ is certainly recursively presented, it is not finitely generated, so this doesn't apply.
My main reason for thinking it unknown is that in Johnson's "Embedding Some Recursively Presented Groups" Groups St. Andrews, 1997 in Bath, Volume 2, the author states specifically that they could not find such a group.
Edit: Ah, I see Mariano's answer shows mine as incorrect/incomplete. I'll leave my answer up just for the observation that you need a little more Higman's original embedding theorem to get the conclusion.

For its annual "Ladies Day" celebration on November 5, 2012, the Women's Law Forum at Rutgers School of Law–Newark will feature a panel of female lawyers who are engaged in significant pro bono work in the private, corporate or public sector.
The Women's Law Forum will also honor Jessica Kitson '02, who as director of the law school's Neisser Public Interest Program encourages students on a daily basis to increase their pro bono efforts. As a Rutgers law student Kitson was a Wenk Fellow, editor-in-chief of the Women's Rights Law Reporter, and co-founder of the Domestic Violence Advocacy Project. She is a former chair of the Public Service Section of the National Association of Law Placement, and serves on the New Jersey State Bar Association Pro Bono Task Force, the NJSBA Pro Bono Committee and the Essex County Domestic Violence Working Group.
The Ladies' Day event traces its history to Harvard Law School in the 1960s when it was the only day on which then Property professor W. Barton Leach would allow female students to speak in class. Inspired by the evolution of the role of women in both law schools and the legal community, student groups throughout the country now use Ladies' Day to commemorate women's progress in the legal profession and to highlight the barriers women have overcome to become successful lawyers.
The price of admission, which includes the panel discussion, networking forum and post-event cocktail reception, is $10. For more information, contact email@example.com.

Greetings, Dungeon Rampage players! I am making this thread so players can request anything to be in the game. Please post every request here, and I will get a mode to sticky this. Use it accordingly and try not to spam/flame!
This is to reduce future spam threads about requests in the forum.
My first request is to be able to sell chests. It would help players because the keys are so expensive, and being able to sell chests would give us some money to help with the chest keys.
My second request is to be able to select multiple chests and abandon/sell them. It would make abandoning/selling chests easier.
Thanks everyone! Remember, please don't post any threads about requests anywhere else but here, to reduce spam of threads.
Note: Please sticky this mods. Thank you.

Why do we say Shalom Aliechem in Kiddush Levanah? And what should one do if there are no other people around (or not enough people around)?
Sign up
- Anybody can ask a question
- Anybody can answer
- The best answers are voted up and rise to the top
The Original sorce for this Minhag is a Maseches Sofrim.
The reasons given are:
In response to what to do if there is not enough people around the Mateh Moshe says you greet one person three times. The Rebbe of the Mahril say that if you have three people you say to one friend twice 'Shalom Aleichem' and to the other once.
Summarized from:
1) http://www.hakirah.org/Vol%207%20Ron.pdf
You wouldn't say it on your own, but you can say it after Kiddush Levana to the first three people you meet. (I was advised this in my youth.)
Since the first question was answered already I will address the second one only.
The Avnei Yashfei 3:50:3 writes that if one says kiddush levana alone there is no inyan to search out for someone to say shalom aleichem since he said the passuk Tipal aleiheim and no one heard him(see @simchas Torah answer -Mattaeh Moshe reason).He adds by saying if one said it with a tzibbur even though he said that passuk quietly ,the fact that the tzibbur knows he says the passuk he still should say shalom aliechem.

Dark Knight Trilogy Blu-Ray for $19.99 + free shipping
Fry's Electronics After-Christmas sale has the Dark Knight 5-Disc trilogy in Blu-Ray on sale. Here's your chance!
13 Comments add a comment
You can no longer have this shipped... Must be picked up in store :(
Missed it. Anybody want to pick one up and ship it to me?
Might want to switch that image, you're displaying the box of only Batman Begins/The Dark Knight (not the trilogy)
You actually can still have it shipped, but it's on backorder.
They are not taking any more backorders. I just called their customer service number after I was unsuccessful at ordering online via backorder and they said it is no longer available for backorder and their website has not been updated yet.
Man, picked this up in Wal-Mart last week for 27. Still sitting here, unpacked....I can't get myself to open it up and watch.
You can always price match at several different stores now.
Picked up my batman trilogy 30 minutes Ago, they still had some in stock
Unavailable in San Diego now... :(
whew! amazon was backordered at $35. Their price went up to $54. Just ordered for instore pickup for $19 at frys Sunnyvale.
You can get the same gift set from walmart with free store shipping for 29.95.
@kais11375: If it's the same set and you go in the store, Wally world price matches. The deal with Fry's Electronics is still valid for in-store purchase and I just got mine there. So if you can get the same thing at Walmart, get it for the $20!
Unfortunately, Amazon doesn't price-match other retailers. You'll have to schlep down to a Fry's to get this deal.

Saturday night's intense backstage dust up between the crews of rappers Rick Ross and Young Jeezy – at the BET Hip Hop Awards – was captured on somebody's smartphone and, as usual, somehow it found its way to TMZ.
In the video, security can be seen stepping in between the various combatants almost immediately, separating everyone before the fight got out of hand.
A shirtless Rick Ross can be seen yelling before being escorted away from the scene. Whoever Ross was yelling at tried to follow after him, but security stepped in before he could get there.

I'm taking a course in algebraic topology, which includes an introduction to (simplicial) homology, and I'm looking for a bit of intuition regarding chain homotopies.
The definitions I'm using are:
Let $f,g : X \to Y$ be continuous functions between topological spaces. A homotopy from $f$ to $g$ is a continuous map $H : X \times [0,1] \to Y$ such that $H(\, \cdot\, , 0) = f$ and $H(\, \cdot\, , 1) = g$.
Let $f_{\bullet}, g_{\bullet} : A_{\bullet} \to B_{\bullet}$ be chain maps between chain complexes $(A, d_A)$ and $(B,d_B)$. A chain homotopy from $f$ to $g$ is a sequence of maps $h_n : A_n \to B_{n+1}$ such that $f_n-g_n=d_Bh_n+h_{n-1}d_A$.
I'm aware of the properties of a chain homotopy and how they are similar to those of a homotopy, but I still find the definition quite opaque and the notion quite hard to picture $-$ it would help me a lot if I could think of a chain homotopy in a similar way to how I think of a homotopy.
Or, to make my question a bit less vague, I'd like to know:
- What is the rationale behind the definition of a chain homotopy?
- Is there a fundamental similarity between a chain homotopy and a homotopy, beyond their further consequences?
(General waffle would also be appreciated; I'd really like to develop a good understanding.)

Take a smooth manifold $M^n$ with a smooth foliation $F$. Consider the sheaf $\cal F$ of $C^{\infty}$ functions on $M^n$, locally constant along the foliation $F$. What is known about Chech cohomology of such a sheaf?
I am pretty sure that such a question was studied (and maybe even has a complete answer), but I don't know a reference.
A more specific question is: what happen when $F$ is 1-dimensional, given by integral trajectories of a non-vanishing vector field? Or even more specifically, suppose $H^1(M^n)=0$ and we consider a Killing vector field $v$ on $M^n$ (i.e. $v$ is preserving a metric). Is it true the the sheaf of functions $\cal F$ locally constant along trajectories of $v$ is acyclic? (we need $H^1(M^n)=0$, otherwise $S^1$ will be an obvious counterexample).
An example of a foliation. Consider the unit sphere $S^3$ in $\mathbb C^2$ and conisder the action of $\mathbb R$ via diagonal matrixes : $(z,w)\to (e^{ita}z, e^{itb}w)$ with $\frac{a}{b}$ irrational.
