Let $A$ be an integral domain, $K$ its field of fractions. Let $M$ be a fractional ideal of $A$. I'd like to prove that $M$ is invertible if and only if $MA_P$ is a principal fractional ideal of $A_P$ for every maximal ideal $P$ of $A$.
EDIT As Georges Elencwajg pointed out, it seems that we need to assume $M$ is finitely generated to prove if part.

Getting a product certified "organic" is so ridiculously expensive, that it's inevitable that the smaller companies will fall to larger manufacturers. The best thing to do is buy from local farms, if that's an option.
Now I understand why my favorite organic snack cracker tastes exactly like regular wheat thins. Thanks, Kraft. Maybe they just use different packaging...=?

Thank you for sharing these links!
I'm not so concerned about the ownership of the "small" organic companies that I buy my food from... when at all possible I try to source out local producers, but of course that is nearly impossible. The fact that the "big guys" are behind the scenes just means that they have access to the distribution networks etc...
Now the soy information... now THAT IS interesting!! Good to know which soy manufacturers are using soybeans from China etc etc... I'll be using this information in my buying decisions!

After reading The Omnivore's Dilemma, I totally felt the same way. In it he goes into the system behind a huge chain like Whole Foods and it's completely not what you would think. Even though what's really best is to only eat locally produced foods from small farms, we can all concede that sometimes that's impossible. So I think buying organic on those occasions is the better alternative.

The chart and the report are rather disturbing aren't they? And it is too bad too 'cuz I like to 'stick it to the man' as often as possible :)
Thanks for your great site - I've FINALLY gone (at least) lacto/ovo and find you not only helpful but funny too!

yikes, that is so disappointing that even when consumers try to get away from large corporations by buying organic, they are actually still giving their money to the food giants they scorn.
i've read about that before in "omnivore's dilemma", which has a great section that goes into detail about some of the hidden truths about organic foods.
i guess local farmers markets or CSA is just the best way to go. at least then your know where you food is coming from and who your money is going to.

An individual can never buy activism. No matter how much being a "conscious consumer" may sound noble, really the only way to be political about the food you buy is to buy everything local (...and even that in itself is a privileged choice).

Then you have to start thinking about things like the increased demand for menhaden fish in order to create "fish emulsion", (a fertilizer deemed organic that is exactly what it sounds like.) and subsequent impact on their eco-system.

That chart is all the more reason to buy local, small and make fresh from home!

That may seem bad, but when you buy a Dagoba chocolate bar, for instance, you are telling Hershey that there is a demand for the product, and they will produce more of it. If more people buy Dagoba chocolate and fewer buy regular Hershey bars, then Hershey will manufacture more organic chocolate and less non-organic chocolate.

Thanks, this reinforces my desire to grow more of my own food! But then I start to think about where the seeds come from.

the term Organic has been defined, and then redefined over and over again to suit the interests of corporations. People who feel superior about buying organic are mislead and misinformed! BUY LOCAL! and cook from scratch like you do!

This "the invisible hand / market forces will make it all work out" is nothing but smoke and mirrors. Time and again it has been shown that this is in fact NOT what always happens.

text: Penguin Encounter Press Release 7/1/2010 1:12:00 PM EXPLORE SEAWORLD'S PENGUIN ENCOUNTER The Penguin Encounter® is a favorite attraction among SeaWorld's guests. Visitors to the Penguin Encounter enjoy close-up views of these gregarious birds as they eat, waddle, play and raise their young. The enclosure is home to more than 300 penguins representing five Antarctic and sub-Antarctic species including emperor, king, gentoo, macaroni and Adélie. The penguins swim and waddle in the 24-degree, snow-filled encounter. Magellanic penguins, a warm-weather species native to Chile and Argentina, frolic outside. The Penguin Encounter is also home to a lively group of arctic birds; puffins, auklets and murres belong to a group of birds called alcids. Environment, light and water are all essential to the health and maintenance of these birds. Providing a frosty environment for penguins is essential. Each day aviculturists blow 4,000 pounds of fresh snow into the exhibit. Light plays a vital role in the Penguin Encounter. The Southern Hemisphere or austral light cycle is closely linked to penguins' breeding cycles. This allows the aviculturists to mimic the sun patterns of the Antarctic. Filtered seawater also is basic to a penguin's health. The frigid 22- to 26-degree air is filtered, protecting the penguins from airborne infections. Penguins receive medical checkups on a daily basis. SeaWorld® San Diego is world-renowned for its successful penguin-breeding program. Since 1980, more than 500 penguin chicks have been hatched and raised at the marine life park, including the first-ever chinstrap and emperor penguins. Emperors are the largest penguins. They can reach up to 3½ feet high and weigh up to 90 pounds. SeaWorld has the world's only successful emperor penguin breeding colony outside the Antarctic. "It's very difficult to care for emperor penguins because of their specialized needs," said Stephanie Costelow, curator of birds. "I think the reason we have been so successful is because we have been able to simulate their natural Antarctic environment." SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment inspires millions, through the power of entertainment, to celebrate, connect with and care for the natural world. The Company has been creating innovative entertainment experiences that blend imagination with nature for more than 50 years and is best known for its 11 U.S. theme parks, attractions that hosted more than 24 million guests in 2012 and include the beloved SeaWorld®, Busch Gardens® and Sesame Place® brands. The parks offer guests a variety of up-close experiences, from animal encounters that invite exploration and appreciation of the natural world, to thrilling rides and spectacular shows. In 2011, SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment began expanding its popular brands into media and entertainment platforms to connect people to nature and animals through movies, television, and digital media; plus began developing new lines of licensed consumer products. SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment is one of the world's foremost zoological organizations and a global leader in animal welfare, training, husbandry and veterinary care. The Company maintains one of the largest animal collections in the world and has helped lead advances in the care of species in zoological facilities and in the conservation of wild populations. SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment also operates one of the world's most respected programs to rescue and rehabilitate ocean marine animals that are ill, injured and orphaned, with the goal of returning them to the wild. The SeaWorld® rescue team has helped more than 22,000 animals in need over the last four decades. SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment employs more than 21,000 people nationwide. --SeaWorld-- Updated: July 2010

For some time now I'm using
pdfLaTeX for writing my job applications, which normally contain 3 pdf documents all created with
- the letter of motivation
- the CV and more information about my projects
- diploma, certificates, etc.
I now noticed that it would have been good to use version control of the different versions to document the differences or take notes about what was changed.
I already used version control with the
svn-multipackage for my dissertation, but that is only a "linear" process where I save a "snapshot" and don't have different versions in parallel.
=> So what would be an appropriate workflow for SVN to handle those documents
under the following conditions:
- it should be clear in the .tex source which document/version was taken as "template" for the actual file, but this shall not be visible in the pdf
(to avoid the potential employer seeing "ah, this is application number 323a ...")
- I'll create a directory for each application "somewhere" outside my svn repository,
-> I think this would be done by an
exportof an existing version - is that correct?
(That directory will also contain other documents with information about the company, the job etc., which will not be managed by svn)
- If the documents are finished, is it correct to save them in the repository by 'update'?
- How could I create different "main versions"
(e. g. one focussing on jobs in IT business which puts more emphasize on my computer skills and another one for the more "technical" jobs where those computer skills are not shown in detail)
- Would it be a problem for SVN if in the custom directory of each application I change the name of
I suppose when I do that and then send it back to the repository,
SVNwould be confused and not recognize the new document as a changed version of
I'm sorry if that sounds like stupid questions, but I have no experience with the "real" use of svn up to now. :-(

5 Fan Theories About Cartoons That Will Ruin Your Childhood
#2. Pinky and the Brain: Pinky Is a Genius, the Brain Is Insane
Pinky and the Brain is the simple story of a super-smart lab mouse who wants to rule the world (Brain) and his dumb friend who ruins everything (Pinky). For the purposes of this article, we'll ignore the occasional presence of a teenage girl version of Elmer Fudd who owns the mice, because, seriously, what the fuck did we just type?
The Theory:
But what if Pinky was secretly the smart one and Brain the idiot, despite what their names and the size of their heads would suggest? This theory from the Looney Tunes Wiki is based entirely on the fact that the show's theme song goes "one is a genius, the other insane," but doesn't specify which is which. Also, you know, Pinky's name is first.
Unless you count Spielberg, who is also the product of genetic experimentation.
Why It's Totally Possible:
Brain is an egotistical mouse who spends every night trying to take over the world. He's clearly a lunatic -- that's not a fan theory, that's the premise of the show. But what about Pinky? Could he really be considered a genius?
Worked for the Beautiful Mind guy.
Actually, yeah. One only needs to watch a random episode of the cartoon to find evidence of Pinky's mental superiority. Most of them go like this: 1) Brain comes up with a plan; 2) Pinky makes a relevant observation, but Brain ignores it; and 3) Pinky turns out to be right, Brain fails. In the second episode, for example, Brain builds a robotic suit to compete on a Jeopardy!-style game show, but loses by not knowing an answer to a question Pinky had answered correctly. Also, the same episode demonstrated that Pinky can read ...
... while Brain is barely able to write his own name.
That's not the handwriting of a genius -- that's probably how Andy Dick writes.
But the most conclusive evidence comes from the episode "That Smarts," in which Brain uses a calculation to identify what makes his plans fail. At first, his machine comes up with this:
So Brain creates a "smart machine" to turn Pinky into a genius ... but his personality doesn't change in the least (which should be our first clue that he was intelligent all along). Smart Pinky then points out that Brain made an error in his calculations, and the real reason his plans fail is this:
Lou Dobbs?
At the end of the episode, Pinky goes back to being dumb ... or pretending to. It's clear to us that Brain's machine never worked, just like most of his inventions, and Pinky simply took this opportunity to reveal his real self to Brain for a while. So, if Pinky is so smart, why hasn't he conquered the world himself? Same reason Stephen Hawking hasn't, probably: He's not crazy. Pinky never wanted to help Brain; he's just keeping an eye on the maniac and messing with him. Pinky might be the most effective hero ever.
#1. Toy Story Takes Place in a Household Going Through Divorce
Toy Story is the story of a character who was once popular, but fears he is outdated and will be forgotten in place of a newer and more talented rival. As the adventure unfolds, we learn the valuable lesson that despite their differences, Tim Allen is still somewhat relevant in Hollywood and won't be overshadowed by Tom Hanks. Also, your toys talk when you're not looking.
The Theory:
Between all the fun characters, the magical nature of the toys, and burning questions like "What is the sex like between Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head?" it's easy to forget that there are human characters in this movie. Namely, the toys' owner, Andy; his little sister, Molly; their mom; and ... wait a minute, where's the dad? This theory by Jess Nevins explains his absence by claiming that, while Buzz Lightyear and Woody are having wacky adventures, Andy's parents are getting a divorce.
For the record, it looks like this.
Why It's Totally Possible:
Each Toy Story movie covers a milestone in the life of Andy: his 10th birthday, the first time he goes to summer camp, and the day he leaves for college. And for all of these important events, Andy's father is always absent, with no explanation. Also, look at Andy's house: There are photos of Andy, his mom, and his sister, but no dad in sight.
Unless his dad is that lamp. Anything's possible in the magical world of Pixar.
Then there's the fact that in the first movie, we see the hand of Andy's mom as she's bringing over his present. Guess what: There's no wedding ring.
If Andy's dad just happened to be on a business trip or was, like, standing in the other room the whole time, you'd still probably see some evidence of his existence. Obviously there could be many, many explanations for this, but it seems likely that either Andy's parents broke up in a bitter divorce or his dad up and left the family at some point after Molly was conceived (which wasn't that long before the first movie, since she's a baby). If the father left recently, this would also explain why the family is moving to a smaller house in the first movie: It's all they can afford on one salary.
Whatever happened, the result is the same: For all practical purposes, Andy has no dad. This explains his deep attachment to his toys, particularly the very masculine ones like Buzz and Woody. In the words of one of the minds behind these movies, Matthew Luhn, "If there was a dad in Toy Story, the boy would not have had such a need for a doll who represents a kind of authority figure, like Buzz." The toys help Andy get over being abandoned by his father.
And then, of course, he abandons said toys. It's in his blood.
Dennis Fulton is a lazy jerk who has no future endeavors. He instead promotes the endeavors of people less useless than himself. Check out his friend's Web series. Aaron Short is a film student who likes to wear women's clothing and drink at bars. When he's not doing that, he also writes this blog.

5 Ways Your Telecom Company is Screwing You
#2. Dark Fiber
What if we told you that there was an entire world of possibilities under your very feet, right this second? No, we're not talking about the mole people's domain over our Earth's core. We're talking about dark fiber -- a network of fiber-optic cable built in the late '90s and early '00s that's capable of speeds hundreds or thousands of times faster than your current Internet connection.
So what's this expansive network of ultrafast cabling used for? Basically, jack shit. That's why it's called dark fiber. The majority of it is unused. It's just there, taunting you and the rest of America with its untapped potential.
David Meyer
We may never experience the indulgence of "super porn."
The thing is, before 1996, telecommunication companies were regulated by the government. But with the Internet and new technology on the rise, the government decided they didn't understand shit about it all and mulled letting the telecoms regulate themselves. As a bargaining chip, telecoms promised anything and everything they could, including a fiber-optic network that would stretch across America, delivering at least 45MBps speeds (a number like that was incomprehensible back then). So lawmakers pretty much agreed out of hand. They passed the Telecommunications Act of 1996 and handed the keys for the nation's data infrastructure over to the telecoms.
At which point we assume they purchased a hollowed-out volcano.
Eventually, all the networks were built (using about $25 billion in tax breaks), but after the dot-com crash, several of the companies underwent mergers and bankruptcies, killing them off before they had a chance to set up the necessary hardware to interact with the fiber-optic lines. So who stepped in to buy them up? Big companies like AT&T and Verizon, who had a vested interest in keeping copper wires around for a little while longer (which they used for their cheaper-to-maintain DSL and telephone services).
"What do they need it for anyway? Geocities loads just fine on what we got."
Only recently have they exploited copper as far as they could and begun offering consumer-level fiber-optic television, phone and Internet services instead. As for the pieces of unused fiber that huge telecoms don't own, much is being bought up by Google, which is attempting to start its own fiber-optic Internet service. So we may finally start seeing fiber-optic Internet in the next few years, but we'll still be buying access from massive corporations. Progress!
#1. You Get Charged Differently Depending on How You Use the Same Data
Once upon a time, wireless carriers had unlimited data plans, just like the Internet connection you have at home (or used to have, anyway), and all was good. But then smartphones became king and several of the major U.S. carriers dropped back into capped data plans. But hey, those plans weren't really unlimited anyway, seeing as the companies would actually reduce your connection speed to almost nothing if you went over a certain amount of data in the month. So maybe it's not so bad. Now you know exactly how much data you're getting and you can use it any way you want as long as you don't go over the limit, right?
After all, if you have a 2GB cap, what does the phone company care what you use it on? It's all the same on their end.
It's no one's business where you telecommute to work from.
Actually, they have a big problem with it if you use it for tethering. See, some customers don't understand why they're paying separately for an Internet connection on their phone and another for their home computer (and some people can't get the latter at all). So they download software that will let their computer run off of their phone's Internet connection. Why not? As long as you stay under the cap for your plan, what does the phone company care if you're displaying cat videos on you Android phone's screen or your big PC monitor?
They care a lot, actually, because it means you're buying one plan instead of two. So if you want to run your phone's data plan -- the plan you're already paying for regardless -- through your PC, the provider will charge you $15 to $30 on top of your existing data plan.
"And look, the wiggly profit line goes up. Business."
In the case of Verizon and AT&T, the tethering plans each give you 4GB of data instead of the typical cap of 2GB, which isn't so awful ... but there's still no explanation why you can't tether with the lower-cost plans. Data is data, right?
Naturally, it's totally possible to hack your phone and tether it anyway, but phone companies seem to have gotten wise to this. For example, AT&T now sends you an email if you try it on their network, telling you that if you don't stop they'll automatically add the tethering charge to your future bills.
And they'll tell your mother exactly what you're using it for.

Stella and Dot, an Inc. 500 Fastest-Growing Company, is a San Francisco based social-selling company that creates flexible entrepreneurial opportunities for women. Our boutique-style jewelry and accessories line is available exclusively through in-home Trunk Shows by Independent Stylists and online. Our one of a kind collections are designed by celebrated New York designers and featured in Vogue, InStyle and Glamour magazine as well as on the wrists and necklines of today's hottest celebrities. The Today Show, Wall Street Journal and The New York Times have praised Stella & Dot for our innovative social shopping concept which brings together the best of ecommerce, social media, personal service and passionate earning to create the ultimate home based business for today's modern woman.
OUR CEO and FOUNDER Jessica Herrin, a mother of two and mentor to many, had a vision to create a new kind of company that would offer today's busy woman a career alternative. As co-founder of WeddingChannel.com (yes, you saw her on Oprah!), Jessica wanted to use her savvy to help solve the modern woman's dilemma: achieving success and balance through a career you love. Never one to go with the status quo, Jessica felt that the typical home based business just didn't deliver. With lackluster product, high pressure sales tactics, and old school marketing methods, inventory was ending up in people's closets with little profit in their pockets.
Jessica's vision called for an entirely new concept that could guarantee women flexibility, reward, style, profit and fun. With an irresistible product and exceedingly personal service, a proven formula for passionate earning and personal success was born.

I work with a team of developers who all have several years of experience with languages such as C# and Java. Most of them are young enough to have been shown OOP as a standard way to develop software in university and are very comfortable with concepts such as inheritance, abstraction, encapsulation and polymorphism.
Yet, many of them, and I have to include myself, still tend to create classes which are meant to be used in a very functional fashion. The resulting software is often several smaller classes which correctly represent business objects which get passed through larger classes which only supply ways to modify and use those objects (functions). Large complex difficult-to-maintain classes named Manager are usually the result of such behaviour.
I can see two theoretical reasons why people might write this type of code:
- It's easy to start thinking of everything in terms of the database
- Deep down, for me, a computer handling a web request feels more like a functional operation than an object oriented operation when you think about Request Handlers, Threads, Processes, CPU Cores and CPU operations...
I want source code which is easy to read and easy to modify. I have seen excellent examples of OO code which meet these objectives. How can I start writing code like this? How I can I really start thinking in an object oriented fashion? How can I share such a mentality with my colleagues?

I am writing a software documentation. In the documentation I talk about new ideas that might be implemented in the next release of the software as well as bug issues. I think items related to new ideas and bug issues should be mentioned with
\footnote to make the main text cleaner and they appear at the bottom.
However, someday I have to update the documentation so it will be tedious if I have to skim through all the pages to edit the footnotes to reflect the changes made in the software (or remove the irrelevant footnotes pertaining to fixed bugs).
So my idea is to collect all the footnotes and print them with their location (page numbers) on a certain location (probably in the appendix).
Is there such a package? If no, how to implement this in the simplest way?

Walking — or Hiking — the Dog
What has fur, four legs, and is dying to be your exercise pal? That's right: the family dog. Studies have shown that owning a dog can make you healthier, in part because you're likely to take more walks. But if your daily walks have become more like a chore, infuse some fun as well as fitness. Go as a family, pick different routes each night, and throw in some jogging. And consider taking the occasional hike with Fido, too, for an even better workout.

Making Sense of a Second Opinion
Q: Our child will be five in late March and should be going into kindergarten in the fall. A private psychologist we consulted recommended our strong-willed and very active daughter repeat pre-K because she is not sufficiently "self-directed" and "needs more structure before entering kindergarten." The current daycare/pre-K facility she attends hasn't expressed any concerns. What should we do?
A: Visit the schools to which you have applied and talk with the kindergarten teachers and the school counselors. Describe your daughter and the psychologist's concerns and ask their opinions on her readiness for their programs.
While you're at the schools, observe the kindergarten classrooms. Although the children who are currently there are a year older than your daughter, you will get a good idea of the classrooms' structure and the teacher's expectations.
If you decide to go ahead and put your daughter in a kindergarten class, you may find that she will have no problems. If she starts kindergarten and you think the psychologist may be correct, ask that your daughter be placed in a class with a highly structured teacher.
Research tells us that once a child starts school, any retention can increase the chances that the child will drop out of school when he or she reaches the legal age to do that. The best solution if there are questions about a child's readiness is to give them another year to prepare before starting school. If your daughter starts school but retention is suggested, kindergarten and first grade are the best years to make that happen.
You may also want to consider going to another psychologist for a second opinion.

The first book to examine Thomas Holcomb's crucial role as commandant of the U.S. Marine Corps during the Great Depression and World War II. It blends biographical, institutional, and operational history with leadership studies, organizational theory, and social and cultural history to explain how and why Holcomb succeeded in expanding the Marine Corps from 18,000 officers and men in 1936 to 385,000 by 1943. David Ulbrich contends that Holcomb's abilities and achievements match those of Chester W. Nimitz and George C. Marshall. Despite Holcomb's success, however, he has been given short shrift in histories of the Marine Corps.
To correct the oversight, this biography draws on a wide range of sources to tell the story of the Marine commandant who molded the Corps into a modern force-in-readiness that would not only lead the way to victory in the pacific, but also would eventually help fight the Cold War and the war on terror.
A Leatherneck Original, published with the Marine Corps Association.
David J. Ulbrich is a historian at the U.S. Army Engineer School at Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri.
Foreword by Lt. Col. Charles P. Neimeyer, USMC (Ret.), Director and Chief of Marine Corps History
A Leatherneck Magazine BOOK OF THE MONTH
Praise for Preparing for Victory
"Throughout [Preparing for Victory] Ulbrich places Holcomb firmly within a cultural context of the Marine Corps, giving the reader as much an institutional history of the innovative Marines officer corps as well as of the key organizational leader that prepared it for World War II and laid the institutional and policy foundations for its later successes. These successes were many and included publication of key doctrines for counterinsurgency (The Small Wars Manual) and Amphibious Warfare (Landing Operations Doctrine, FTP-167)."
— International Journal of Naval History [8]
"[Ulbrich] has conducted in-depth research among many seemingly unpromising sources and has presented his findings in clear, unadorned prose. Ulbrich has both a real analytical flair and an ability to make significant generalizations. His major conclusions are buttressed by an abundance of evidence. Moreover, he has rescued an important figure known only to a few specialists from undeserved obscurity. General Holcomb was a key figure in the development of one of the most important military institutions of the modern age. Students of the U.S. Marine Corps, World War II, and modern military history generally will want to read and reflect on this book."
— www.h-net.org
"Ulbrich has written a compelling narrative, deftly capturing Holcomb's character and personality…Preparing for Victory fills a notable void in the existing literature on a pivotal figure in Marine Corps history…Over his extraordinary forty-three-year career, Thomas Holcomb personally transformed the Marine Corps into an essential, highly effective fighting force for the nation. This new biography ensures him his rightful place next to other prominent Marine Corps leaders."
— Michigan War Studies Review
"Preparing for Victory is an excellent book for anyone interested in the history of the Marine Corps or military leadership."
— The Northern Mariner, January 2012
"Makes a major contribution to the scholarship on the history of the Marine Corps during World War II and the immediate prewar era. Ulbrich's study is a welcome addition to the historiography of the Marine Corps and amphibious warfare."
— Marine Corps University Journal, Spring 2012
"For U.S. Marines of all stripes, this is essential reading about a Commandant who made a difference to his Corps and Country while remaining an 'officer and a gentleman.' His ability to learn from his experience and apply it broadly without fanfare proved of value when faced with obstacles that were without precedence. For other Armed Services members it will provide a look inside the Marine Corps family that is as insightful as the careers of other American wartime commanders that are more publically recognized. Holcomb's career and Ulbrich's research are a testament of service to the American people. This book is highly recommended for personal or professional reading."
— Fortitudine, Volume 37, Number 2, 2012
"Preparing for Victory evolved from the author's Temple University doctoral dissertation, so the book is meticulously researched. It is also well written, and readers who are interested in the history of the "soldiers of the sea" will definitely want to purchase this excellent work."
— The Journal of America's Military Past, Winter 2012
"Preparing for Victory is an excellent biography that accomplishes its mission of giving scholarly credibility to the assertion that Commandant Gen. Thomas Holcomb's leadership was a major factor in the Marine Corps' success during the Second World War. This is a must read for historians of World War II, the Marine Corps, and military professionalism."
—The Journal of Military History, January 2012
"David Ulbrich's offering is an excellent and worthwhile book for the casually interested reader, Marines interested in the organizational history of the Corps, and the ardent Marine Corps historian….Ulbrich's research is deep, detailed, and archive based, which adds a rich texture without undue focus on minutiae."
— Marine Corps Gazette, February 2012
"This book fills a large gap in the historical literature on World War Two and includes information about the Marines and the wider links to American military professionals in general."
— Warfare, December 2011
"Preparing for Victory is a well-researched and detailed Naval Institute Press book in the Leatherneck Original series that tells of the challenges and successes during Gen Holcomb's time. . . . The author has successfully portrayed Gen Holcomb as a visionary leader, shrewd publicist, progressive thinker, meticulous planner and a courageous combat leader. Due to his facility for "staying out of the limelight," he often is overlooked as a transformative figure in the Marine Corps. This classically crafted biography will go far toward gaining Gen Holcomb his rightful place in the history of our Corps."
— Leatherneck [9], June 2011
"Ulbrich's convincingly documented book provides a great deal of insight into this relatively unknown Marine officer and his leadership during this pivotal period of the Corps' history. Ulbrich's work is extremely well researched and documented. He has captured General Holcomb's qualities and contribution."
— Naval History, October 2011
"Not much has been written about the contributions that Marine Corps commandant Lt. Gen. Thomas Holcomb made during his tenure as the top Marine. The author does a good job in filling this void by outlining the Delaware native's efforts to increase the size of the Corps during the 1930s, while the country was immersed in the Great Depression."
— Military Heritage, October 2011
"Excellent narrative. . . .This book is strongly recommended to anyone interested in a fuller picture of the Marine Corps and its leaders than is normally understood during the first half of the 20th century. Thomas Holcomb is properly described in a manner that illustrates his seminal importance in the storied history of the Marine Corps."
— Naval History Book Reviews, 29 Jul 2011
"Excellent contribution to American naval history shelves."
— The Midwest Book Review, April 2011
"David Ulbrich's aptly named Preparing for Victory presents the only full biography of General Thomas Holcomb, Commandant of the U.S. Marine Corps from 1936 through 1943. By inspiration and hard training Holcomb transformed the marines from a police force aboard naval ships and in banana republic interventions into division-sized units of elite assault troops that executed War Plan Orange against Japan in World War II, never losing a battle. Holcomb's legacy is a Marine Corps that remains the premier expeditionary arm of United States military power."
—Edward S. Miller, author of War Plan Orange: The U.S. Strategy to Defeat Japan, 1897-1945
"Combat veteran, progressive manager, military politician, strategic visionary, and habitual publicist,Thomas Holcomb turned out to be the right man to guide the U.S. Marine Corps through a rushed expansion. He succeeded in shaping it into the amphibious offensive force that proved its worth in a string of island invasions from Guadalcanal to Okinawa. David Ulbrich's Preparing for Victory fills a major gap in the historical literature on World War II, the Marines, and the growth of the American military profession. Ulbrich's thorough research, much of it based on previously untapped sources, paints a compelling portrait of this shrewd and energetic commandant as a transformative figure in the evolution of the Marine Corps."
—Gregory J. W. Urwin, author ofVictory in Defeat: The Wake Island Defenders in Captivity, 1941–1945
"This comprehensively researched and convincingly presented volume places Holcomb at the vital center of Marine Corps effectiveness in World War II. His progressive management style, his mastery of logistics and administration, and his foresight in the technological and organizational aspects of amphibious assault were essential contributions to victory in the Pacific, and to the nature and character of the Corps as an institution."
—Dennis Showalter, professor of history, Colorado College, author of Patton and Rommel: Men of War in the 20th Century
"Ulbrich's research makes it clear that Thomas Holcomb's impact on the Marine Corps was tremendous. . . . Holcomb was a man for all seasons—equally comfortable on a battlefield or in an executive board room. I anticipate this book will soon become required reading for all students of World War II Marine Corps history."
—Lt. Col. Charles P. Neimeyer, USMC (Ret.), Director and Chief of Marine Corps History

We are all familiar with the United States Marine Corps successful role in the Pacific Theater of Operations during World War II. What is not so well-known is the story of how the sea soldiers progressed form a shrunken group of naval police during the Great Depression, into a full-fledged fighting force of nearly a half a million men and women on VJ-Day. Preparing for Victory is the only full length biography of General Thomas Holcomb, seventeenth commandant of the Marine Corps, whose skills as a leader, manager, planner and publicist enabled him to guide the Corps through the lean pre-war period and the demanding, bloody war years to 1943. A career Marine, Holcomb was commissioned a second lieutenant in 1900 and briefly saw sea duty before being assigned to the Legation in China, where he spent the bulk of his time prior to World War I. Shipping to France as part of the Sixth Regiment in January, 1918, Holcomb's initiation into combat came at Belleau Wood, where his leadership skills saw him become one of the most highly decorated Marines in the conflict. His hard work in training his Marines saw them as a tough, well-organized, esprit-filled team. After demobilization in mid-1919, Holcomb remained as one of only 962 Marine officers in 1920. His war record enabled him to serve in key staff and command posts and in 1928, he was promoted to colonel. As international tensions escalated across the globe, the Marine Corps found themselves completely undermanned with just over 17,000 men in uniform, serving a country unable and unwilling to fight another world war. At this low point, Holcomb became commandant in December, 1936. He would prove to be the right man in the right place. Holcomb's accomplishments rank right up there with other, more well-known American commanders, such as Admiral Chester Nimitz and General George C. Marshall. But, as history is oftentimes fickle, his role has become obscure. Perhaps his greatest achievement is the Marine Corps that we have today. Thanks to author Ulbrich, Thomas Holcomb has been restored to his place in the pantheon of American Heroes.

Last month something strange happened at Seattle Coffee Gear (well, stranger than usual): A bunch of the SCG Crew started drinking *gasp* tea! And with this new found appreciation for tea, we discovered the basic preparation fundamentals are similar to coffee prep. It starts with fresh water, a quality product and the right gear. Check out the lovely links you may have missed about all things coffee (and tea!).
- Here Is My Handle, Here Is My Spout via 39Steeps.blogspot.com – Don't settle for a drippy tea kettle when you can harness the power of fluid dynamics, no lab glasses or Bunsen burners required!
- Interview: Coffee Pro Velton Ross via FoodGPS.com – Our ace reporter Brenna tracks Velton's success from barista to renown roaster.
- The Controversy Over Crema via TheShot.CoffeeRatings.com – Shocking but true stories about espresso crema. Some people scoop it off! Some people have been known to mix it altogether! And some naughty people call blonding from a pressurized portafilter, crema.
- The Art of Making Flowering Tea via LeafJoy.com – Grab a glass teacup or glass teapot and watch the magic unfold. Flowering teas are more fascinating to watch than Sea-Monkeys and more enjoyable to consume (we're just theorizing here, though, because we've never consumed Sea-Monkeys).
- Be A Coffee Pro At Home: Vertical Tastings via ChicagoCoffeeScene.com – Take the best whole beans you can find and then do a little side-by-side challenge with your favorite coffee preps. AeroPress, Chemex, French press … it's all good!
If you want a daily dose, we spill the beans about serving espresso in brandy snifters, the Kaffeologie S-Filter upgrade and other items of caffeinated interest on:

While recording I need the game volume turned down. This means that it can be hard to hear dialogue through the recording.
Is there any way to make the subtitles larger so they're easier to read without reducing the resolution?
While recording I need the game volume turned down. This means that it can be hard to hear dialogue through the recording.
Is there any way to make the subtitles larger so they're easier to read without reducing the resolution?
Short Answer: No.
Explanation: It is not possible to change the subtitle size in Mass Effect 3. It is possible to do so through coalesced, but you risk being banned. See the link in "Sources". People have been requesting this feature for a long time. It was one of the major gripes with Mass Effect 2. You can read GammaSquad's opinion here if your'e interested. If you want to do some coalsed modding, this is how to do it. Be careful - you risk messing up game.dat and being banned for resource hacking. Proceed with caution.
There are two tools that will accomplish this for Mass Effect 3. The first one is a little easier to use, however the second one is more powerful. You can download links for each below. Here is a comparison of the two tools:
ME3 Coalesced Utility (Wenchy)
Tool Screenshot:
There are three versions of the tool with different capabilities. The comments section on the website provided is very active, and you can ask how to edit the subtitle size there.
Download Link for 1.1 (Direct Download): Click Here
Mass Effect 3 Coalesced.bin Tool
This tool is more obscurely documented, and is a lot more work to set up. It does not backup the game files, if you want to do that you have to do it manually. It is several steps more, and overall I would recommend the other tool. But, your choice. You can try both and see which one you like better.
Direct Link Download (current version)
If your'e not convinced you want to do resource hacking, your only option is to change the screen resolution. Resource hacking has many disadvantages, you risk messing up your whole system. If you want this feature implemented by default, send a message to bioware. If enough people want it, they'll do it. So, you can try both tools and see which one you like better. I would recommend the first one because of ease of use, however, if you like the technical aspects the second one is great.
Sources: Mass Effect 3 Forums
Sorry to say, but there's obviously no usual way to do that. Of course, you can do resource hacking afterall, but... I don't think it would be easy. I think it's a part of an engine, UE3, if I'm not mistaken, so, you should begin digging from this point. Also, you can try config file in Data folder, by I haven't seen anything useful to you.
Also I've found now this utility: http://wenchy.net/me3-coalesced-utility It's used to edit the coalesced.bin file, which is here: \BIOGame\CookedPCConsole There's A LOT OF ini files with settings, so, maybe you'll find what you need. Anyway, it's a nice program, you can find a lot interesting here.

I want to make a Youtube video that I put in my second screen stay maximized while I go and do something in another window on my primary monitor. Is this possible?
For everything other than VEVO (and certain copyright videos) you can use
This is something that flash decides locally, not some setting on Youtube.
If you run windows this article over on Lifehacker tells you where to download a modified dll that will allow flash to remain full screen when it does not have focus.
Another option might be to use a html5 able browser (Chrome, Safari for example) and tell Youtube to use that to play video. According to this page Full-screen support is partially implemented
The same page also has a link to lets you join the html5 beta program.
I use VLC for that. It can even load playlists (might need some extra scripts for that to work). Also it skips advertisments.
Just press ctrl+n and enter youtube url.
also: http://superuser.com/questions/351612/how-to-watch-youtube-fullscreen-on-one-monitor-of-a-dual-monitor-display
You can download and install Flash Keep FullScreen from this website : http://flash-full-screen-multiple-monitor.clangen.com/
It will keep full screen for the video, even if they are paused or finished. It will also work for other applications in fullscreen, like Flash games on Facebook.
Very easy to use and install. I hope it helps.
Youtube Leanback
I was looking after the same problem and found an awesome solution that works for all videos (VEVO as well).
Sign in to leanback, and it will give you a device code, which you can authorise by visiting
Also, signing in is optional, and you can browse through videos normally.
Update for Firefox 13 and later:
