Today, I was playing Holst's Second Suite in F (Movement 1) on my Flugelhorn. It sounded great, but I feel that some particular sequences are a bit muddy in the fingering. I usually play with the middle of my fingers rather than the fingertips, is that the problem? What would be the proper way to finger these awkward sequences?
Unfortunately the design of most piston-valve flugelhorns encourages that kind of playing technique, but it really should be avoided if possible. Actuating the valves with the middle of your fingers actually makes you work a lot harder since the movement of the tip of your finger is amplified as though it were a lever over a fulcrum.
You should try to keep the same posture fundamentals on flugelhorn as you would on any other bell-front valve instrument:
This does take a bit of finger strength, and you may have to adjust things for certain hand sizes or instruments, but the basic tenants should stay the same: keep the fingers curved with the fingertips resting on the valve buttons, and don't add unnecessary tension to your posture, grip, or technique.

Salisbury Bank takes hit in 4Q, but fiscal year profit rises 8%
|Salisbury Bank said Friday its net income rose 8 percent for the fiscal year. Contributed
Salisbury Bancorp Inc., the Lakeville-based parent of Salisbury Bank and Trust Co., said net income rose 8 percent for the fiscal year, but fourth-quarter earnings were reduced by more than 50 percent because of non-recurring items.
The bank reported fourth-quarter net income available to common shareholders of $531,000, or 31 cents per diluted share, compared with $1.2 million, or 70 cents per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2011.

Which one is more common way to type LaTeX or are there any standards?
The case of displayed formulas is a matter of opinion, I'll tell about it later. For punctuation after an inline formula, there is no doubt: it doesn't belong to the formula, so it should be typed outside it.
Here's the relevant excerpt from the TeXbook
with a scanning of the output
Of course one shouldn't use
The difference between
is actually seen only when "British" spacing is used, because in the former case the period is considered as sentence ending, while in the latter it isn't. Here's the output, with
but this doesn't mean one is allowed to put punctuation in the formula: it's logically wrong.
When displayed formulas are concerned, there are various schools of thought; but there's no doubt that, if punctuation is used, it must be inside the displayed formula:
I adhere to current number 1, following Knuth's advice. I find that following current 2 leaves punctuation hanging from nowhere, particularly if the added space is a quad. A thin (
Of course one must adhere to only one of those conventions across a document.
Assuming that we are talking about inline mathematics, it would seem strange to me (and judging by the comments, to others as well) to put the full stop inside the math environment. This is because it is not part of the mathematics. The mathematics is the last "part of the sentence", and the sentence ends afterwards, so that is where the full stop should go. So I say the following version is correct:
However, when I have punctuation at the end of a quotation I always put it outside the quotation marks, for the same reason.
There are some writers who regard this as wrong (they think the comma should go inside the quotes). Maybe they would see my opinion about putting the full stop "inside the dollar signs" as wrong, too. :-)
In the case of displayed mathematics, however, you will want the full stop (or comma, or semicolon) to be displayed along with the mathematics, not hanging out by itself at the start of the next line of text. So there you have no choice but to put the punctuation within the math environment:

We've being looking online for a to buy list of basic items we should buy before having a baby. We are planning to move so we want to buy just the basic needs.
We didn't end up using everything that we bought before our baby was born. Some things, like baby oil, sounded useful but weren't. Someone may find a particular item necessary, but as time goes on, you may develop different opinions. I would recommend buying as little as possible before the baby is born, and then buy a few things at a time as you need them.
The only items that I found to be absolutely essential were:
If you're not absolutely sure you'll need something, my advice is to wait.
I could make a looong list out of this, but let's turn it into a group effort:
EDIT THIS ANSWER to add whatever you feel is missing.
For each item, consider adding a short explanation.
Useful consumables:
Other useful items:
One thing to be aware of: parents who have 1-year olds will practically PAY for you to take their 0-6 months stuff away from them. We saved a FORTUNE when my partner spoke to one of her colleagues. Seriously, we got half the stuff on this list free. Try putting up flyers in nurseries, and hire a van.
May be or may not be needed:
As a rule of thumb, if you are not absolutely sure you need it RIGHT AWAY then don't get it. If you live in a place where you can get emergency ("need it quick") things 24 hours a day and anything else the next day or within a few days then just wait. You'll know what you need when you need it. Having less stuff will make things easier.
As a new parent I know how easy it is to over think this question. By doing so you end up with a lot of things you will never use and/or don't need. My list does not differ much from the other answers; I just suggest thinking about it differently. The basic needs of your child will fall into the constraints of the basic needs of any human being.
Everything else is probably extra. There are a few things I found that we would not want to do without and I'm sure your own list will come from the needs expressed after you get your child home. A few of the "non-basic items" we have added:
One thing you will need for child right away is a safe place to sleep.
You may want a crib, a co-sleeper, something like a Pack n Play, or something like a Rock n Play Sleeper - or more than one place to sleep.
Car seat, diapers, wipes, clothes are obviously some good suggestions.
I would recommend a changing station of some kind. Yes, you could change them on the floor or a bed but as many times as you change a diaper, its a nice thing to have. We have something that lays on a dresser and helps keep the baby from rolling off while you are changing them. We use it every day.
Related to that would be a separate trash can or diaper pail for soiled diapers. In my opinion, a must have. We also use this every day.
Pacifiers and some kind of toy or blanket will help the baby sleep better. And believe me, sleep is important (more so for you). We use both every day.
Bottles are also convenient if you guys are breastfeeding and critical if you are not. Again, every day.
I also would recommend baby lotion. Especially when they are first born, their skin needs lotion after every bath. You guessed it, every day.
My wife and I both found gas drops to be useful too. Not something you would necessarily think of, but sometimes babies get fussy for no apparent reason and when you need them you need them. We use this sometimes - more when he was younger and less often now (1 year).
If you plan on leaving your house ever, a diaper bag to put diapers, wipes, pacifiers, toys, formula, bottles, etc. Also every day.
This is not an item for the baby per se, but something absolutely essential for when baby comes home.
Also, establish:
Some may see a video camera as unnecessary.
As a new grandpa, looking back, I can tell you that it =IS= a necessity. You will NOT be able to remember the kind of detail that a video camera preserves. And keep the date/time display TURNED ON.
When the kids are in grade school, THEN you can swap it out and use a regular camera. Make sure you carefully back this stuff up, too.
Whenever I feel down, I play those old videos. And maaaaaan, it really brightens your mood thinking back about how HARD it all was and that you DID it and that they were SOOOOO DAAAANG CUTE when they were sleeping and learning to walk and sitting up for the first time and peein' on ya and getting tickled and telling dumb jokes and all the things kids do.

Posts Tagged '2.5L intake'
APR gives us a glimpse of the new VW Mk6 2.5L intake by CarbonioPosted on December 20, 2010 – 2:33 pm
APR is at it again with their "teasers". The latest update from APR is about the Carbonio Intake for the Mk6 2.5L. Slight differences between the Mk5 and Mk6 2.5Ls do not allow for a ram-air intake design similar to the 2.0T applications nor use of the Mk5-specific intake. With its carbon fiber construction, a new mold was produced with these changes in mind and it won't be long before we will have these available.
As with all "teasers", updated pricing and power figures will be posted as soon as they are released from APR. Meanwhile, check out these pictures!

These circle shaped pine filled rings are one of the most popular objects that you see on doors, cars, trees, and even buildings. The Christmas wreath is green, made from some form of pine, and have red colored tied bows. Sometimes there is fake pieces of red berries, and even ribbons laced around the wreath. To keep things simple, this wreath will be made from layers of pine, a red bow, and some red berries. You can choose to leave out the berries, or you can leave them in. One thing is certain, you will enjoy drawing a Christmas wreath because this is one object that kids draw when making pictures for the holidays.

"Hello, darling," said Lloyd as he planted kisses on both our cheeks. He seemed to sense exactly what we needed, even though a pitiful "help" was all we could utter. After a stiff drink, a little R&B on the stereo, and a hemp-oil scalp rub, our day at the office was a distant memory, and our nowhere shag had been softened with simple, angled layers. We felt like we'd had a hair makeover, massage, therapy session, and night on the town. A fiercely loyal clientele has followed Lloyd around Washington's top salons for years; now we know why.
Washington, D.C.: Haircuts and Hair Color
1201 Salon
Richard Lloyd
2526 L Street, N.W.
Alanya Spa
Cevat Topcu
3285 M St., NW
Word spreads quickly in D.C., so we doubted there were any hidden salon gems we had yet to unearth. Then a friend with rich brunette hair divulged Topcu's name—and the fact that he works out of a nondescript spa behind a storefront that we'd walked by countless times. Topcu recommended allover highlights—an unappealing idea to us, since past efforts had left our auburn hair with Ronald McDonald-orange streaks. After Topcu explained his intention to keep the bottom layers of our short, choppy style from looking unnaturally dark, we acquiesced, and he carefully added golden tones throughout. The color itself took 40 minutes, and the shampoo came with a particularly indulgent scalp massage. Our waves shone with pretty glints of gold and copper, and we're happy to say that Topcu is now our little secret (and yours).
Andre Chreky The Salon Spa
Adiil Karkas
1604 K St.
We've negotiated for antiques, but never for the length of our hair. Karkas sized up our dull below-the-shoulder strands and delivered the bad news: "You should lose this much," he said, placing his hand even with our chin. We told him that we would consider it—next time. He yielded and sheared off three inches, then slightly layered our ends to keep them from getting straggly. In 45 minutes, our revived mane swung gorgeously. It was the best deal we've made in years.
1612 U St., N.W.
When our stylist uttered the words that every woman hopes to hear from a scissors-wielding stylist ("I like your length"), we instantly fell in love. She explained that she wanted us to feel good about how we look (now that's a concept) yet still be adventurous. She gave us a full, sexy set of bangs before transforming our shapeless hair with a few face-framing pieces. The cut showed off a set of cheekbones we never knew we had. Best of all, she did it all in under a half hour. But at only $30, you'd better book now. We have a feeling space in her appointment book is going to be pretty hard to come by.

Eivind and Hans Salon and Spa of Georgetown
Daniel Sriqui
2233 Wisconsin Ave., NW
The word: Sriqui can perfect and enhance your own color.
What we got: A minor panic when an assistant began applying the dye, but Sriqui supervised the entire process, which yielded a rich coffee shade one notch darker than our medium brown.
Bottom line: Our revived color and the low price made up for the dull atmosphere. (Our bill: $70.)
Fringe Hair Studio
Renee Ellison
1425 Wisconsin Ave., NW
If a friend hadn't tipped us off to this tiny Georgetown salon, we would have easily walked right past it. Good thing she shared. The outgoing Ellison cut textured long layers into our blunt shoulder-length style, giving it a cool, tousled finish—just what we were looking for. Now we can afford to change our hair at whim.

Portsmouth native, 47, conquers 21-mile swim of the English Channel
A 47-year-old local man who didn't know how to swim growing up on the Seacoast, recently swam across the English Channel in less than 11 hours. Bob Fernald, a Portsmouth High School graduate and North Hampton resident, said once he "figured out swimming" about six years ago at the Portsmouth Indoor Pool, "I wanted to see how far it would go."

Subject: Re: [OMPI devel] PML selection logic
From: Aurélien Bouteiller (bouteill_at_[hidden])
Date: 2008-06-23 13:59:32
The first approach sounds fair enough to me. We should avoid 2 and 3
as the pml selection mechanism used to be
more complex before we reduced it to accommodate a major design bug in
the BTL selection process. When using the complete PML selection, BTL
would be initialized several times, leading to a variety of bugs.
Eventually the PML selection should return to its old self, when the
BTL bug gets fixed.

What happens to my web based email (i.e. Gmail, Yahoo) username after I completely close down my account? Is the username I closed down made available to new users or is it retired for good?
In case of Gmail it depends on how you delete it.
Google support writes about possibilities of regaining your username depending on how you have deleted your account.
Therefore, it seems that your username won't be available for others to use in any case.
For Yahoo, when you terminate your account, the ID might be reassigned.
The detailed procedure can be found on Yahoo's "How to close your Yahoo! account" help page.

A rare celeb teaches us to live as she faces death
Harper, now 73, played Rhoda Morgenstern, the sharp-tongued, self-deprecating neighbor of Mary Richards, the resolutely cheerful, perpetually stammering working woman celebrated for her "spunk." As Rhoda, Harper brought a humanity, bravado and humility to a character new to audiences: a New York Jew. (Harper herself was raised Catholic). If nothing else, her portrayal of Rhoda (which she said she based on an Italian relative), shattered many ossified, ugly stereotypes about Jewish women. Growing up in the 1970s when the "Mary Tyler Moore Show" offered a glimpse of the life I might have as a professional woman, I wavered between wanting to have a Jewish best friend and wanting to be Jewish myself.
Such is the power of network television.
Since Harper made her illness public in People magazine this week, she has appeared on all of the morning television shows as well as an episode of "The Doctors," in which she discussed her cancer. Harper, a non-smoker who successfully battled lung cancer in 2009, is suffering from an extremely rare form of brain cancer known as leptomeningeal carcinomatosis. It is, as she says, "incurable, so far."
"(Those are the words) I'm looking up — 'so far' — because they're doing research as we speak," Harper told "The Doctors." "More than anything, I'm living in the moment. I really want Americans and all of us to be less afraid of death. Know that it's a passage, but don't go to the funeral before the day of the funeral. While you're living, live."
That kind of candor is unusual among celebrities, whose drawn, waxen visages are often slathered across the tabloids underneath the words "Shocking Diagnosis!" Celebrities aren't typically forthcoming about their illnesses until after the fact, and with good reason. Their viability depends on their perceived good health. After her cancer diagnosis in 2005, Nora Ephron pointedly refused to go public with her illness, her son wrote, because it would likely jeopardize her ability to get insured for a movie and because, as he wrote, "what my mother didn't want was to have her illness define her, turning every conversation into a series of "how are you?"s."
But not telling, as Harper must have recognized, has its drawbacks, too. A resolute secrecy disconnects you from the community whom, rationally or not, you touched very deeply. Few of us can call Valerie Harper an intimate friend, but it is the nature of television to collapse distance between actor and audience. The advent of social media like Twitter and Facebook has whittled away the barriers between celebrity and fan. Harper has used that space to let that community embrace her and to share her eloquent message.
"Keep your chin up and don't go to the funeral, mine or yours or your loved ones, until the day of the funeral because then you miss the life that you have left," she told Piers Morgan. "I've had a magnificent run. Death is out there for all of us."
And yet few of us square up to that mortality. Only half of us have a will. Fewer have advanced directives. And most of us rage against the dying of the light, undergoing costly, often fruitless treatments that fail to improve the quality of our lives. One out of every four Medicare dollars, or more than $125 billion, is spent on services for 5 percent of beneficiaries in their last year of life.
So how do we access the equanimity Harper has achieved?
"We are all terminal," says Cheshire's John White, author of "A Practical Guide to Death and Dying." "Nobody gets out of here alive. The question is not so much the quantity of our years but the quality of our years. And to live with genuine quality means to live fully, freely and in service to humanity."
"You're supposed to not want to go," Patricia St. Onge, a Southbury therapist, told me. "But that's an immense use of time and energy because it's been ordained that at some time we're going to go....And yet my experience is, the closer one is to acceptance, the more peaceful the going is, even if there's pain."
Strange that Harper's lesson should come from the entertainment industry, which has so lucratively promoted eternal youth. But in Valerie Harper, it found a guide whose last days have become an eloquent testament on living — and dying.

Don't know the laws of the state she lives in, but in TX you could be arrested and charged with brandishing a firearm.Uncovering a concealed weapon is considered brandishing, and under TX law is only justified under the same circumstances as the use of force. No matter how unpleasant having someone expose themselves may be, it most assuredly does not meet the "threat of death or great bodily harm" standard for the use of force.
(c) Any person acting for the purpose of protecting himself or herself against the use of presently threatened unlawful force by another, or for the purpose of protecting another against the use of such unlawful force by a third person;
It would have been a stretch, but she could have called it self defense. Good thing there were no witnesses. But if there had been, someone might have called the cops on the flasher. Years ago I was confronted by a man who exposed himself to me while masturbating. Since I had been nearly killed during an attempted rape some years before, I was terrified. It didn't help that I was holding my baby at the time. I just ran & locked myself in my apartment before calling authorities. So I think I would call it self defense. I wonder how the law would interpret feeling threatened.
Forcible Rape: Any penetrative sexual contact of any orifice (mouth, anus or vagina) by any object (penis, fingers or foreign object) by another person without the consent of the victim.
Open and Gross: This involves the performing a sexual act in such a way as to evoke fear in the viewer. This crime is most often associated with public masturbation.
I think the laws have changed over the years. This was called "only" attempted rape & sodomy when it was done to me. I think he got 3 years. For some reason his nearly killing me wasn't called attempted murder. I wish I had been more forceful about prosecuting the pos. His sister was an acquaintance so everyone was telling me it would hurt the family to press charges & he promised to get counseling. No one offered me counseling! As you can probably tell, I'm still pretty angry about both incidents. They are things one never forgets, as much as one would wish to.
Heck, in Florida you can, in theory, be prosecuted if your legal CC pistol gets uncovered by the wind blowing your jacket/shirt/vest whatever open.

I found on an example, they were using "item.storeField" to get the name of the field, but it's not workin for me. Any ideas please?

Tooltip on each bar of grouped chart
I am also facing the same issue. I need to show the name of the Y-field in the tooltip,but I get only the value of it.
Here is my code:
var lineChart = Ext.create('Ext.chart.Chart', {
renderTo: Ext.get('BarChart'),
style: 'background:#fff',
insetPadding: 30,
width: 600,
height: 600,
animate: true,
store: chartData,
shadow: true,
theme: 'CustomBlue',
legend: {
position: 'right'
axes: [{
type: 'Numeric',
position: 'bottom',
smooth : false,
minimum: 0,
highlight: {
size: 15,
radius: 15
fields: ['D1','D2'],
title: 'Metric Value'
type: 'Category',
position: 'left',
fields: ['trend_key'],
title: 'Month',
minimum :0
series: [ {
type: 'bar',
axis:[ 'bottom'],
xField: 'trend_key',
yField: ['D1','D2'],
tips: {
trackMouse: true,
width: 200,
height: 25,
renderer: function(storeItem, item) {
So, the tooltip doesn't tell me whether D1 or D2 field has been used.

Major Concepts/Content: The language Arts 9 course is designed to strengthen students' skills in listening, speaking, writing, literature, and language. The content includes, but is not limited to, preparing oral reports in various content areas; using appropriate pitch, stress, juncture and rate in formal and informal speech; using the dictionary and the thesaurus to develop an increasingly comprehensive and precise vocabulary in both speaking and writing; locating resources (magazines, reference sources, films, and microfiche) by using indexes, catalogs, and the Reader's Guide; practicing the process of composition, including prewriting, drafting, revising, proofreading, and publishing; writing correspondence using appropriate forms (business, friendly); identifying with literary characters of the student's own age, and under-standing how the characters' actions and emotions reflect the student's own actions and emotions; under-standing that literature is written at different levels for different purposes and for different audiences; and reading self-selected books to help students learn to view reading as a useful and pleasurable activity.
Major Instructional Activities: Instructional activities will be provided in a general classroom setting, in the media center, and in the school and community environment. Student activities will include, but will not be limited to, writing journals or learning logs; writing expository, persuasive, and descriptive paragraphs and essays; writing short stories; writing and mailing business letters; learning to respond to each other's writing with helpful suggestions for revision; taking several pieces of group and/or individual writing through a process that includes prewriting activities, drafting, peer response, revision, proofreading for spelling, punctuation, capitalization, grammar and usage, and publishing; practicing writing from different points of view for different purposes and audiences; developing speaking and listening skills by responding to literature and to each other's writing, and by participating in small and large group discussions and in oral presentations, individual recitations, and dramatizations; studying appropriate major works of literature intensively in class; reading, viewing, and listening independently to examples of the various genres of literature and responding to the literature; presenting interpretations of literature orally; reading self-selected books and responding to them in journal entries, letters, group discussions, or oral or written book reports; and increasing vocabulary through the study of words encountered in reading and through work with the dictionary and the thesaurus.
Major Evaluative Techniques: Students will be evaluated for class participation; completion of reading assignments and book reporting requirements; comprehension of literature as measured by objective, essay, and/or oral examinations.' and improvement in written compositions and oral presentations, with major emphasis on critical reasoning, content, organization, specificity and relevance of detail, evidence, and argument, and with secondary emphasis on skill growth in spelling, punctuation, capitalization, grammar and usage.

Soy Foods After Breast Cancer
The University of Pennsylvania School of Nursing
Last Modified: December 13, 2011
I do not eat soybeans, tofu, tempeh, flax seeds. I do not consume any soy supplements. I am looking for a complete list of those foods that are no-no's for ER 100% patients re: estrogens, phytoestrogens, xenoestrogens. I have a list from www.dietaryfiberfood.com, which lists foods high in phytoestrogens and lignans (content and amounts included for both). Please recommend any resources that list no-no's as I listed above for ER 100% patients.
Karen Wagner, RD, Registered Dietitian at Penn Medicine, responds:
The literature surrounding phytoestrogens and estrogen receptor positive (ER +) breast cancer can be confusing. Based on the majority of the evidence it seems that phytoestrogens from soy foods and flax are safe and may even be protective for women with ER + tumors. Many major organizations, including the American Institute for Cancer Research and the American Cancer Society have issued statements that moderate consumption of soy foods (1-3 servings per day) should be safe for women with ER + breast cancer. Much of the confusion surrounding soy and breast cancer comes from studies done on cell cultures, animal models and some very small human studies done with high doses of soy isoflavones. The debate still continues as to whether genetic factors play a role in the relationship between soy and breast cancer. Also debated is whether or not the timing of soy intake plays a role in the development of breast cancer. For instance, some scientists are examining if is soy more protective early in life. While we certainly recommend that women with ER + tumors not consume large amounts of isolated soy protein, at this time, we do not have any lists of foods that absolutely must be avoided by women with ER + tumor type. For more information on this topic, please see www.aicr.org or www.cancer.org .
Xenoestrogens are a different issue altogether. These are chemicals that can enter the food supply and may be present in varying amounts in a wide variety of foods. The relationship between xenoestrogens and breast cancer is being studied, but at this time there is not enough data, either about the effects of xenoestrogens, their safety or the foods they are in to make definitive statements about what foods to avoid to avoid xenoestrogens.

How do I burn the latest 12.10 790 MB ISO to a CD?
My burning software says insert a disk but 700 MB CD's are too small. I tried a DVD and that didn't work either.
How do I burn the latest 12.10 790 MB ISO to a CD?
My burning software says insert a disk but 700 MB CD's are too small. I tried a DVD and that didn't work either.
This was a decision made some time ago by Canonical, the corporate backers for Ubuntu.
See: OMG! Ubuntu > It's Official: The Ubuntu LiveCD is Dead
I stopped burning a CD (or DVD) for ISO files about 2 years ago.
A cheap 2GB Flash USB drive is 3-4 times faster for installs, and can be repeatedly reused (for later releases).
The ubuntu page mentions that 12.10 can no longer be written on a CD because of its size.
Also, there's no such thing as a "CD iso image", it's just an iso image, so just write it on a DVD and you'll be fine.
There is also a "mini.iso" network install that will burn to CD and will download the needed packages from the internet.
This will not give you a live CD but will give you a way to install Ubuntu with a CD and your internet.
There were many talks about the final size for Ubuntu 12.10. The decision was made that the CD size was not capable of handling the amount of packages and ideas that the developers wanted to put in 12.10, like for example Python3 and all other packages related to it. Additionally, since both DVD and USB are more used than common CD (Not all parts of the world, but most of them), the final decision was then made to start building against the DVD and USB sizes, starting with a size around 800MB, which eventually ended around 700MB but still, a couple of megabytes above the biggest size for a common CD disc (Assuming you are using a 650 or 700 size one).
So for 12.10, you can either use a DVD disc or USB (Pen drive, Flash drive...). This gives you 2 benefits:
Note that this only affects the Desktop version, since the Server version still supports a CD size. Also note that this talk was also mentioned for 12.04 but in that case, they waited for 12.10 instead of applying the size change in 12.04.
In my personal opinion, with the increase in size of many programs, for example games (That even go out to sizes of bluray), and large download installer (Like in steam), or OS updates like the Windows 7 SP1, sizes bigger than 1 GB are more common. So it was just a matter of time before this really needed decision was made, which should help in promote more options for end users (Like me trying to see aptitude implemente again ^^). Hope this answer helps you.
Source: OMGUbuntu.com
I would start by taking out the additional language files such as French, Spanish, ... This usually reduces the size by 100 or so MB. The files can be found in the source root of the disc.
You can't
live cd option is no longer available for ubuntu, you should use live dvd or usb disk :)
If you know someone who knows how to repackage a boot image and modify the config files it can be done, im sick of people who just reply "you cant", it can be done, but like i said, you need someone who knows how to modify the 790mb image (perhaps leaving out a few measly pkgs or drivers you dont need). I have done this in the past...
Oh and there aren't just 2 options, Linux can be installed many ways not just USB and DVDs exist in the real world ya know... the MiniCD (34mb) or even better, if you have a machine already set up with PXE, or have a windows machine handy, you can set it up with TFTPD and set up a pxe boot and get the ubuntu distros for it, i have tried this and it does work.. just google around you'll find lots of different ways to do this. I am currently working on shrinking the build to 700mb because i have 7 machines that need installs and none of them have DVD drives (all cd) and whats worse they are servers and have no way of using my IDE DVDROM cause its SCSI-LVD.. so.. if i ever get this done or find someone else who can do it for me i'll get back to ya, good luck -- hope that helps... (maybe?)
PS: My suggestion for you: Install Ubuntu 12.10 SERVER (comes with no gui) and then install the GUI separately if you know even a little linux this should be sufficient... or heres a link on how to do it if you dont know how..should get you started and hopefully done and on to better things...
Actually you have two options for the 12.10 standard-image:
To create a USB flashdrive, you can follow these instructions. To create a proper DVD follow the instructions here.
You could use the minimal cd iso which you can download from here. It's only 34MB so it's able to fit on a CD.
You could try installing Ubuntu 12.04 via CD and then upgrading it immediately after installation to 12.10.
To do that, check out this article on OMG!Ubuntu!
Yeah,as david6 said, you can use a Flash USB device.uncompress the files in the iso to you USB device and boot from the USB device just like your CD.(you can use ultraISO to uncompress the iso to your usb device)
Your two alternatives are either to burn a DVD or to make an Ubuntu live USB. The instructions for making an Ubuntu live USB follow.
In order to make an Ubuntu live USB for installing Ubuntu, use UNetbootin (Windows<=Windows 7/Mac/Linux/Ubuntu Software Center). The flash drive you use should be 1GB or larger (2GB or larger for Ubuntu 14.04 and onward), plus whatever additional space on the USB drive you want to use for persistent file storage, and formatted to FAT32. UNetbootin will automatically format the USB flash drive to FAT32 if it is not already formatted to FAT32. In either case the formatting procedure will delete all of the files that are already on the flash drive.
It is very important to verify that the device that you are installing the Ubuntu live USB to is indeed your flash drive, so that you don't overwrite any of your system or personal files which may make your operating system unbootable. In Ubuntu you can find the device name of the flash drive using Disk Utility (or Disks if you are using Ubuntu 13.04, 13.10 or 14.04 and onward). In the picture below the name of the flash drive is
The Ubuntu live USB flash drive that you make this way will be bootable from PC computers. In order to enable your computer to boot from the USB flash drive, you must enter your BIOS menu by pressing one of these keys, usually: Delete, F2 or F10 as soon as the motherboard splash screen appears when the computer is booting. In the BIOS menu, you need to change the boot order so that the USB flash drive, which is usually called USB-HDD in newer computers, is the first entry in the boot sequence, and then save your new BIOS settings and exit the BIOS setup.
One potential workaround, if you don't have a USB stick or a DVD burner, is to copy the image to a hard drive partition and boot from that (
If you use your swap partition for this, you might save yourself a bit of trouble, since swap is the easiest thing to deal with after install.
Try using a USB, as other had stated. You can get one for pretty cheap from your local Staples or other such market.
I know this is an old post but I am going to try an answer anyway.
There are some
After the required installation packages are downloaded, it then asks you all the packages you want installed. It even has the ability to install the GNOME Desktop without Unity, and vice versa.
The files can be found here.
Hope this helps!

Outside of the issues discussed elsewhere (http://www.sencha.com/forum/showthre...29-API-Changes), our goal is to be backwards compatible with 4.0x. So, if you are hitting compatibility issues, we'd love to hear about them so that we can address them for GA. That would also probably be of value to others.
Thanks for the feedback!Don Griffin

Testing the simpe MVC example
I keep testing the MVC example app from the learning center, that is also included as the app/simpe example in the code. Since Beta-1 (and now in Beta-2 as well) the updating from the form to the grid does not work the same anymore.
The original controller/Users.js::updateUser function in the example is as follows:
PHP Code:
updateUser: function(button) {
var win = button.up('window'),
form = win.down('form'),
record = form.getRecord(),
values = form.getValues();
PHP Code:
updateUser: function(button) {
var win = button.up('window');
form = win.down('form');
record = form.getRecord();
Also to make this example work, the data/updateUsers.json has to return the same data as changed in the form, i.e.
PHP Code:
success: true,
users: [
{id: 1, name: 'Eddy', email: 'email@example.com'}

AWESOME job guys. This worked out of the box on a very complex app for me. There were a few minor glitches, but compared to b1 this is a massive move forward - at least for my app.
Icons still dont appear in Firefox by the way on the 'kitchen sink' demo.
30 Jan 2012 6:54 AM #15
I'm having trouble moving forward in testing B2. The issues that I'm seeing are at times only showing up when deployed on our Windows 2008R2 webserver using IIS7. 2.2, 3.x, and 4.0.7 projects are working fine on the same platform. Is anyone else having difficulty with Beta publishing on a Windows platform?
I have reported some issues/anomalies here:
I know on a B1 report that Evant wasn't able to reproduce the issue with the treepanel's horizontal scrollbar. And I wasn't able to either on my file system or when I deployed the sample code to my Apache server, but can't escape it in our production Windows webservers.

According to mdbg.net 感动 means both 'to move (emotionally)' and 'moving'. But from what I understand from some texts I have '邻居们都很感动' implying a more passive meaning for 感动.
Can someone shed some light on this ?
感动 can both be passive and active. For completeness' sake this is the first meaning: "受外界事物影响而引起内心激动" and this is the second "使感动" in 现代汉语规范词典. The meaning will typically be clear from the context.
Some examples:
Although not mentioned in most dictionaries, it can also be used as an adjective. Actually in your example (using the modifier 很) it is used as an adjective (according to Chinese grammar, in the translation it can be translation using a verb instead). As an adjective in also be in both directions (used when you move somebody else, or when you are moved by something or somebody. For example:

Public school system puts the talent in the field
Moving quickly to put her own imprimatur on the top management of the Polk County school system, newly-appointed Polk County School Supt. Katherine LeRoy, after three weeks on the job, hired five of her former associates from Duval County at six-figure salaries.
In a county in which numerous candidates for the school board (and, when the office was elective, school superintendent) have run on a platform of reducing the size of the district headquarters staff, addition of five new managers at salaries ranging from $103,622 to $131,299 undoubtedly caused a lot of eyebrows to be raised.
There is a mixed message in her decision not to promote from within the present Polk County staff. The superintendent said she renewed the contracts of all top executives "to calm the waters," but that means the five new high-ranking administrators are an addition to the previously existing payroll.
That said, we reserve judgment on the wisdom of the new positions. If the five new executives can quickly produce measurable improvement in student performance, her decision will be validated.
As the new superintendent, with school board oversight, restructures the school district's management, we would like to offer one observation:
In our opinion, which has been validated by a number of educators with whom we have discussed the topic over the years, performance of faculties, and hence students, lies primarily with principals.
While self-motivated, top-flight teachers will produce superior results with little oversight, the performance of faculties as a whole is a function of the effectiveness of principals.
Polk County has 163 school sites and more than 6,500 teachers, according to the district's web site.
At one time, every city in Polk County large enough to have a high school had a position called supervising principal, responsible for all schools in his or her jurisdiction. Accountability was clear and effective.
As the school system grew, this concept was replaced by a system with a smaller number of area superintendents, each responsible for oversight of a far greater number of schools, and eventually to further concentration of supervision at the district office.
We do not profess to know the proper ratio of principals to supervisors, but it is obvious that no superintendent can adequately monitor the performance of more than 150 principals.
As Katherine LeRoy builds her own management team, we hope she will consider reducing, not expanding, the size of the district office staff, and putting more educational managers in the field to monitor, support, and — when necessary — replace principals.
It is in the classroom where learning takes place; principals are in the best position to ensure that is what is happening on 163 Polk County school campuses.
Closely monitoring performance of principals and teachers is a key to educational excellence.

Band of Collectors
The Party
Just like clockwork, watch aficionados from the islands and beyond made their way to Ala Moana Center for the retailer's celebration of gorgeously crafted luxury timepieces.
The Scene
In a fitting gesture for a family business founded more than 100 years ago, President and Co-CEO Ed Bridge; his wife, Pam; and son Mark flew into Honolulu just for the occasion. And as watches continue to hold their place as one of the prime male accessories, Honolulu's professional gents made their pilgrimage—among them, Earl Ford, Bryan Luke, Dr. James Scoggin and Dr. Ramin Jamm.
The Highlights
Stunning pieces from the likes of Breitling, Tag Heuer and others simply stunned onlookers with their combination of sumptuous design and tradition. (Who knew that Breguet, for instance, had actually created the first wristwatch for the Queen of Naples in 1812?) And when shoppers needed to take a break from browsing, there was a host of premium spirits to sip, from Jameson Gold Reserve to Glenlivet 18. –Photos by Tracy Chan

One of my colleagues recently left and I've been asked to review the code of an interviewee coming in to replace him.
I have no idea what code he'll bring along with him and moreover have never been given this sort of responsibility before, so am eager to give some useful and fair input.
Can anyone provide a succint list of things to look out for?
I understand this is a very broad question, but this does equally seem like a very appropriate forum for asking it.

When you've got a mobile website it puts you streets ahead of your competition. If you don't have a mobile website your competitors will leave you standing.
Mobiles are an integral part of our lives, so much so that many of us can't remember a time without them.
Nowadays we've got them on us all the time… when we go out we take our wallet or purse, and our mobile. Generally we are NEVER separated from them!
We eat breath and yes even sleep with our mobile phones! 60% actually do take their mobiles to bed every night.
Without doubt the mobile phone has become the most private and personal accessory we own today.
Some of us may remember people carrying filofaxes and personal planners, however the mobile phone is what we carry now.
The new generation want the latest mobile, with all of the connectivity and features.
That is definitely true consumerism, you customers are demanding to get access to everything from their mobile devices…Fact 29% of user only access the internet via their mobiles. There are way more mobile internet devices that pc internet connection…. but if your customers can't see your website properly on their mobile devices they will just click onto one of your customers site that's optimised.
That all said, there is a massive lack of knowledge as to just how powerful a mobile can be. Mobiles privide a complimentary mass media platform.
Simply put, a mobile is completely interactive as a platform
It has unique features such as SMS and MMS. These two features alone differentiate it from any other media. The ability to contact and respond to people around the world
It's little wonder that Mobile has been described as the 7th mass media. In the book "Mobile as 7th of the Mass Media", Tomi Ahonen makes a compelling case why mobile will be the dominant media. While he rightly says it will not replace other media's it domination is born from its disruptive nature and the fact is has so many unique abilities. For example a simple text message, is far more disruptive that say the internet was 10 years ago. This is largely because an SMS message enables an immediate response.
The mobile phone or cell phone is without doubt the most widely spread technology ever.
There are now 20 times more mobile devices than Playstations;
30 times more mobile devices than iPods.
Not only is it the only universal gadget the world has ever seen, but it has now become the newest media channel.
The very first media content that discovered mobiles was music ten years ago now. Today over 31% of all music sold worldwide is purchased through mobile devices.
The second category was videogames and over 20% of that market has now migrated to mobile devices.
Social networking, news updates, Television and even internet services are all now moving towards the mobile arena.
Mobile marketing is happening right now.
It is essential that you business at least understand what is happening in the market place and features a mobile website presence.
If you have a mobile website it puts you streets ahead of your competition. If you don't have a mobile website your competitors will leave you standing.
There's real first server advantage right now!

Fashion Celebration
South Coast Plaza's beloved boutiques joined in celebrating Childhelp's 27th annual fashion show and luncheon, and much to the delight of the 400 guests, the afternoon (dubbed For the Love of a Child) showcased designs from fashion houses like Versace and St. John. Pam Pharris and Christine Bren served as co-chairwomen of the event, which also shined a spotlight on Erin Runnion, who started The Joyful Child Foundation after the tragic kidnapping of her daughter Samantha. But there was plenty else to celebrate, thanks to Dancing With the Stars' Maksim Chmerkovskiy, who hosted the affair. And the $280,000 that was netted for the nonprofit was enough to bring everyone to their feet. Photos by Ann Chatillon


text: 22 February 2012 archive See all show photos IN his own words, Peter Dundas "plundered" his own wardrobe for this evening's autumn/winter 2012-13 collection, which was quite the surprise. Pucci is a house steeped in a history of paisley swirls and moving prints, but not tonight. "It was very fresh and there was a lot of great masculine tailoring," said Vogue's Fran Burns of the show, which did indeed opt for a masculine and sharp take on the Pucci girl's wardrobe this season. "Last year I did a small menswear capsule collection and that gave me quite the appetite to continue. In the fittings I was trying on the samples and thinking about the menswear silhouettes and the fabrics and also, last summer [spring/summer 2012], I did something so colourful that it just made sense to play with something with shine and matt and express it in a clearer way," explained Dundas backstage after the show. In the show notes, he had alluded to this new dark and minimal by saying, "Exotic black. Sober but slashed" and this was really the apt description as packs of models purposefully walked onto the catwalk in black tight dresses, slashed here and there to reveal slices of sheer – the same idea got a bejewelled upgrade later on. It was, again, just as the show notes described "tightly crafted elegance". Dundas played with the idea of crocodile textures and worked it into a cohesive mechanism that spanned velvet devorés down the backs of more seriously sassy dresses and as its own tough outerwear for oversized coats. It was a clever idea to take texture and turn it into a pattern and, in turn, make it both glamorous yet durable. It was all very in keeping with the dark mood that seems to have gripped Milan this season – not dark in a depressing sense, this was rich with jewelled mosaic panels on the backs and fronts or the square collar of a dress. There were more Big Bird (but we mean that not in a derogatory way), shaggy coats as we had seen at the beginning of the week at Fendi and there were tuxedos and tops and tails and cummerbunds – again to emphasise that masculine inspiration. It was a cleansing take on glamour – serious and slick. What would Dundas usually be doing on a Saturday night? "Usually I'm arriving at an airport. I think I'd quite like to go out dancing sometime though," he laughed. If we're wearing one of those dresses, may we join you?

I like to use the groups feature of Gmail to quickly send an email to a certain group of people that are generally always included on certain emails. For instance, I have a Family group so I can quickly email everyone in my family. This is really convenient, but it always puts all the addresses in the "To" field. I have other groups where I always want to CC certain people, while others should be in the "To" field. Is there a way to create a group in Gmail where one or more of the addresses are automatically put in the "CC" field instead of the "To" field?
migrated from superuser.com Feb 21 '11 at 3:39
This question came from our site for computer enthusiasts and power users.
Contacts are just addresses and groups are just collections of contacts. Unless you write a plugin to read user defined fields from the contacts api, I don't believe that you would be able to selectively designation a contact as 'to' or 'cc'.
Otherwise, I would suggest creating two subgroups: one for the 'to's and another for the 'cc's. Remember that contacts can be members of multiple groups. So all of them can still be members of a 'Family' group.
That's it.
Arcege is right, create two groups one for to and one for cc and to remember add to/cc as prefix. Like as you said for family make two separate groups toFamily and ccFamily and while mailing add accordingly.
Hope it helps.
I was looking for the answer to this which I couldn't find anywhere so will help you since I figured it out myself.
In gmail click COMPOSE To the right in the TO column click on BCC another BCC field opens up, click on that to reveal SELECT CONTACTS choose the appropriate group SELECT ALL and then blue SELECT at the bottom. All contacts will show up in BCC in the address bar.
Not simple but that is how it works at this time.

Or are they both not allowed at the same time?
Not only is it possible, some systems set up new accounts with both. This allows the same skeleton setup to be used whichever shell the user gets.
The purpose of the two file is the same, but they belong to two different shell families. The syntax of the shell scripts for the two shells is very different so different scripts are required.
With a bit of care it is possible to use the same rc file for Bourne shell, ksh, and bash. This can be done by inclusion or hard links.
Why wouldn't they be?
They're only executed by their respective shells though...

Greg Myhr enters his fourth year as Penn's Nicholas B. Paumgarten Head Coach of Men's Heavyweight Crew.
"I'm thrilled to be joining the Penn community," said Myhr at the time of his hiring in August of 2009. "Penn Rowing is one of the most storied programs in the country, with an immensely long and successful history. I am honored and frankly humbled at the opportunity join this legacy. Though I am new to the Ivy League, I have spent 17 years as an athlete and a coach in the EARC conference. I know firsthand how tough the competition is and also how dominant Penn has been over the years. In conversations with the administration, the alums, and some of the athletes it is clear to me that the necessary elements are in place to compete and recruit at the highest levels. I feel incredibly fortunate to be joining a team that is poised and ready to again make its mark in the Ivy League and beyond."
The 2011-12 season saw Penn not only retain the McCausland Cup with its second consecutive win over George Washington, it also featured success at the conference and national levels. At EARC Sprints, Penn reached the Petite Final for the first time in Myhr's tenure -- and first time since 2007 -- as part of an 11th-place finish. In early June, the Quakers put together their best IRA Regatta since 2001 with an 11th-place finish. Off the water, Myhr's team continued its success in the classroom as Commodore Grant Wilson was named the recipient of the George H. Frazier Award as the student-athlete with the highest G.P.A. among basketball, crew, track, soccer, baseball and football athletes. Wilson was also named Philadelphia Inquirer Academic All-Area Performer of the Year for men's rowing and Micthell Stein earned Academic All-Ivy honors.
Myhr came to Penn with 14 years of coaching experience in the Eastern Association of Rowing Colleges (EARC). His most recent post prior to Penn was as the head coach at George Washington University for four seasons. During his time at GW, Myhr moved the Colonials from the ECAC/Dad Vail leagues to the EARC, and in 2007 the program achieved a first when its varsity, second varsity and freshman eights were all invited to the IRA National Championships (success that was repeated in both 2008 and 2009).
George Washington took ninth place at the 2009 Eastern Sprints, a five-place jump from 2008 which earned the Colonials an automatic bid into the IRA Championships. GW then took 15th at IRAs and finished with the No. 15 standing in the national Ten Eyck team standings. In addition, the varsity won five dual races against EARC competitors.
Under Myhr's direction, George Washington was named the second-most improved program in the country at the 2007 IRA Championships, and was the third-most improved team at the 2009 Championships.
From 2003-05, Myhr was the freshman heavyweight coach at Georgetown University, where he compiled a 6-4 dual race record and assisted the program in its ascension to the EARC. While at Georgetown, he started, organized and coaches a U.S. Olympic Development Camp.
From 1995-2003, Myhr was a coach at his alma mater, the University of Wisconsin, serving as an assistant coach from 1995-97 before being promoted to freshman men's coach in 1997. During his stint as the freshman men's head coach, Myhr coached the Badgers' freshman eight to 10 combined grand final showings in 12 appearances at the Eastern Sprints and IRA championships. In addition, his freshman four won IRA titles three straight years, from 1998-2000. Myhr's freshman eight put together a 14-3 record against EARC competition. Overall, Wisconsin was a five-time IRA National Team Champion during his tenure in Madison (1997, 1999-2002).
Myhr rowed at Wisconsin from 1988-92, serving as a team captain and earning the program's Norm Sonju Award for outstanding contribution to the success of the program. He was a bronze medalist with the freshman eight at the 1989 Eastern Sprints; a silver medalist in the straight four at the 1990 IRA Championships; and a silver medalist in the second varsity eight at the 1991 IRAs. He graduated with a degree in philosophy.
A 1988 graduate of Walt Whitman High School (Bethesda, Md.), Myhr as a student conceived and started the first high school rowing program in the state of Maryland.

5 Tiny Mistakes That Led To Huge Catastrophes
#2. The $1.4 Billion Sensor
At an air force base in Guam, during a routine check of a Stealth Bomber (aka The Most Expensive Fucking Plane Ever Built) somebody on a maintenance crew noticed the humidity was screwing up the air pressure sensors. Not a big deal, it's just a $1.4 billion aircraft, not like they could have ever guessed it would be flown in a place where there was humidity. We always go to war with dry countries.
Anyway, they just made sure to dry off the sensor before calibrating it. Problem solved. Good thing they worked that out before anything went wrong!
Communication is a beautiful thing. As simple as the sensor fix was, the maintenance crew overlooked one minor detail, which was telling other maintenance crews to do the same thing. But seriously, it's just an air sensor, with some droplets of water on it. Do those things really even serve any purpose? It's not like it's an engine or a flux capacitor or something.
Really, What's the Worst That Could Happen?
When another bomber pulled into Guam earlier this year, on presumably an equally humid day, a different maintenance crew left the wet sensors the way they were. As it turns out, those air sensors feed data to the Stealth Bomber's flight control system. Important data. The kind that keeps Stealth Bombers in the air.
See, that's what makes a $1.4 billion plane cost $1.4 billion--it takes hundreds of pounds of sophisticated computers to fly the thing. The malfunctioning sensors resulted in a premature take off, a 30-degree nose-towards-the-sky ascent, and ... well let's just show you:
Fortunately for the pilots, they were able to safely eject. And on the bright side, the next time a problem like this arises, they'll know how to fix it!
#1. The Mars Climate Orbiter Disappears
Along with The Mars Polar Lander, The Mars Climate Orbiter was one part of the Mars Survey '98 project. The ambitious project was intended to study weather and climate patterns on Mars, presumably so we can all move there one day when things finally go completely off the rails here on earth.
With two separate, unmanned aircraft designed to work together from completely different points on a (probably) uninhabited planet, an obvious question is raised. Who the hell is working on our flying cars?!?! Whoever it is, we can only hope that as much careful attention and detail goes into our airborne Prius as was put into the Mars Climate Orbiter.
Whoops ...
Or not. When Maryland-based contractor Lockheed Martin was tapped to help build the Orbiter, they made as assumption that many of us probably would also. They're in the United States, NASA is in the United States, and 'round these parts, we don't deal with no stinking metric system. Thus some unnamed engineers installed software in the craft's thrusters that operated on the good ol' American units.
Nobody told NASA this, and they continued doing business in the same fruity metric system way they always have. But shit man, isn't there a checklist somewhere in the billion dollar orbiter building process that confirms these things?
We like to think there was one lone intern in mission control who, upon seeing some odd readouts on a screen, got the urge to ask his supervisor, "Is this like, in metric or American here?" but was afraid it was a stupid question.
Really, What's the Worst That Could Happen?
There are no stupid questions when it comes to $330 million spacecraft. You would really be hard pressed to find a NASA project that went more horribly wrong that didn't involve multiple fatalities. While neither machine performed particularly well, The Mars Polar Lander at least lived up to the promise of its name and, you know, landed.
The Mars Climate Orbiter, on the other hand, just couldn't be bothered. Initially expected to enter orbit at an altitude of 140 kilometers above Mars, the whole metric system misunderstanding caused the thrusters to fire incorrectly, causing the Orbiter to come in as low as 57 kilometers. At that height, the Orbiter was perilously close to the Martian atmosphere. Or at least that's where it was the last time anyone saw it.
The thing vanished, the most likely explanation being that atmospheric pressures and friction caused it to burst into flames and disintegrate. But, as a website that thrives on geekery, we're unwilling to rule out alien intervention. Whatever the case, it proves that countless disasters can be prevented by simply assuming everyone you're working with is a moron.

I've seen the same question being answered over, and over and over.
And it seems I'm not the only one (see Matt Ball's comment there).
I've seen it gets closed sometimes, and that is good but most times it also gets closed as a dup of a question which is also a dup or sometimes people just answer it quickly and badly in order to get easy rep
This got me to think that there must be something better we can do.
How about creating some "golden" question/answer. Like the definitive answer for this duplicates. I'm really not sure of how it would work, I'm thinking more of a FAQ-something page, were the details between the duplicates would be answered in the same place and everyone would know where to point the users to.
So instead of having 1000 dups (some closed, some not, some badly answered) we would have the definite answer that could get better over time (in this example, the inclusion of
delegate method, the differences between
live and
delegate, a detailed example of how
event bubbling works, etc, etc.).
Also, to prevent the 'just copy this code' answers that want to get easy rep, we could give rep bonus to guys that close the question as an exact duplicate of another. Not sure if this would get massive dup closes though, which might do more harm that good...

When upgrading from 10.10 I noticed that touch gesture bindings have changed, from middle click via 3-finger touch, I need 5 fingers and 3 fingers is snap-move.
I tried to search online for a way to change the bindings and found nothing of use.
Is it possible to change the gesture-action binding? If so, how?
If it can only be done by code changes, I would be happy for a project or file reference to start looking at.

Women receive sentences for acts against neighbors
April 2, 2013
STEUBENVILLE — Two women were sentenced Monday in Jefferson County Common Pleas Court for acts upon neighbors. Linda C. Lyons, 30, of 3827 Bristol Av....
Six months is not enough for these women. The arson case could have led to attempted murder and as for the thief, she needs to serve more time considering this is probably not the first time she has done this. A thief is still a thief even after they do their time.

Homework Hassles!
Q: My nine-year-old takes hours to do his homework. I've tried setting the timer, and using negative and positive results. The only thing that works is if I sit there the entire time and keep him on-task, which is hard because I have two other children with homework, and dinner to prepare. Do you have any suggestions?
A: Homework provides excellent practice in developing independent learning and task-management skills that will be important in later learning and work roles in the adult world. Homework also extends after-school learning for gifted students, allowing them to read and explore topics in depth. While too much homework or homework that is too difficult should be avoided, more than likely your son is procrastinating. In any event, his homework is his homework, not yours.
As a first step, I would contact his teacher(s) and possibly the school counselor. Discuss the problem with them and develop a cooperative strategy for addressing the problem. You and his teacher can put into place a simple strategy of identifying his assignments, checking for completion the following day, and rewarding successful homework completion.
A good book to share with your son is How To Do Homework Without Throwing Up by Trevor Romain and Elizabeth Verdick. The book is aimed at students in grades three through six, and includes tips on setting up a homework schedule, how to get help with homework, etc. Another book is The Berenstain Bears and the Homework Hassle. You may want to read How to Help Your Child With Homework by Marguerite Radencich and Pamela Espeland. This book offers tips for halting homework battles with your child.
You are not alone. Homework battles are all-too-common between parents and children, whether the kids are gifted or not.

Babies need to go to the doctor or nurse for a "well-baby visit" 6 times during their first year.
A well-baby visit is when you take your baby to the doctor for a full checkup to make sure he is healthy and developing normally. This is different from other visits for sickness or injury.
At a well-baby visit, the doctor or nurse can help catch any problems early, when they may be easier to treat. You will also have a chance to ask any questions you have about caring for your baby.
To make the most of your baby's visit:
What about cost?Thanks to the Affordable Care Act, insurance plans must cover well-baby visits. Depending on your insurance, your baby may be able to get well-baby checkups at no cost to you. Check with your insurance company to learn more.
How often do I need to take my baby for well-baby visits?Babies need to see the doctor or nurse 6 times during their first year. Your baby is growing and changing quickly, so regular visits are important.
The first well-baby visit is 2 to 3 days after coming home from the hospital, when the baby is about 3 to 5 days old. After that first visit, babies need to see the doctor or nurse when they are:
If you are worried about your baby's health, don't wait until the next scheduled visit – call the doctor or nurse right away.
How do I know if my baby is growing and developing on schedule?Your baby's doctor or nurse can help you identify "developmental milestones," the new skills that children usually develop by a certain age. These include physical, mental, language, and social skills.
Each baby grows and develops differently. For example, some babies will crawl earlier than others.
At each visit, the doctor or nurse will look for some basic developmental milestones to see if your baby is developing on schedule. This is an important part of the well-baby visit.
By age 1 month, most babies:
By age 2 months, most babies:

By age 6 months, most babies:
See a complete list of developmental milestones for kids age 6 months.
By age 9 months, most babies:
See a complete list of developmental milestones for kids age 9 months.
Remember, each baby develops a little differently. But if you are concerned about your child's growth and development, talk to your baby's doctor or nurse. Learn more about newborn and infant development.
Take these steps to help you and your baby get the most out of well-baby visits.
Gather important information.Take any medical records you have to the appointment, including a record of shots your baby has received and results from newborn screenings.
Make a list of any important changes in your baby's life since the last doctor's visit, like:
Use this tool to keep track of your baby's family health history.
Make a list of questions to ask the doctor.Before the well-baby visit, write down 3 to 5 questions you have. Each well-baby visit is a great time to ask the doctor or nurse any questions about:
Here are some questions you may want to ask:
Take a notepad and write down the answers so you can remember them later.
Ask what to do if your baby gets sick.Make sure you know how to get in touch with a doctor or nurse when the office is closed. Ask how to reach the doctor on call, or if there's a nurse information service you can call at night or on the weekend.
Know what to expect.During each well-baby visit, the doctor or nurse will ask you about your baby and do a physical exam. The doctor or nurse will then update your baby's medical history with all of this information.
The doctor or nurse will ask questions about your baby.The doctor or nurse may ask about:
Your answers to questions like these will help the doctor or nurse make sure your baby is healthy and developing normally.

STEUBENVILLE - Everyone involved in the rape case against two Steubenville High School student-athletes said it should be used as a life lesson for parents and teenagers....
This entire episode has been tragic for all involved and will have an effect for the rest of lives of the perpetrators and the girl. I hope thye can all move on and become productive people, but i do find it offensive that the girls mother made a public statement that the boys had no moral code. I believe the girl had little as well as she put herself in a very bad situation. I am not trying to play the blame the victim card , but she was not at her local Sunday school picnic. She was openly drinking, petting, and out way beyond an appropriate curfew.Her parents might want to look a little further than pointing their fingers at others and their moral codes.

Right...here is the lesson: If you want a slap on the wrist for rape, just go to Ohio. The vast majority of other States would have viewed this as an ADULT offense worthy of an ADULT sentence in an ADULT prison!

Ericae, even though the victim was out way past her curfew and may have been acting inappropriately, that in NO WAY gave Ma'Lik and Trent the right to do what they did to her. Don't flip the blame to the victim...after all, the judge has already found them guilty and that's all that matters.
