WEIRTON - Madonna matched Magnolia field goal for field goal in Wednesday's clash at the Dubie Dome. Both teams finished with 22 deuces and nine triples.
The state-ranked Blue Eagles left town, however, with an 89-72 victory by converting 18 of 22 chances from the charity stripe. The Blue Dons, on the other hand, went to the line just five times, making only one.
"I've always said basketball games are won at the line," Madonna's George Vargo noted. "Magnolia certainly proved that point tonight."

RUNNING THE OFFENSE — Madonna's Ross Comis comes around a Tyler Ewusiak screen during the Blue Dons' 89-72 loss to Magnolia Wednesday at the Dube Dome.
-- Fred Younce
With the victory, Dave Tallman's club moves to 16-4. The Dons fall to 8-13 and will begin Region 1, Section 1 play Saturday at Cameron. The tip is set for 7 p.m.
The visitors from Wetzel County appeared poised to record a blowout early. Hitting six of their first seven shots, the Eagles raced to a 14-2 lead. Senior standout Mark Winters put an exclamation point on the first quarter run by flushing one home after a steal on the defensive end.
Madonna's Ross Comis, making just his second start since returning from an injury, wasn't about to let his team get run out of its own gym. The junior guard keyed an 11-0 Blue Don burst to make it 19-18. He swished a pair from behind the arc and recorded two on a nifty drive to the basket. Sophomore James Carnes buried a deep ball off a Comis assist.
A hoop by Zach Wilhoite put Magnolia up 21-18 after one. The Eagles went eight for 13 from the floor during the opening eight minutes.
"We could have died in the first quarter but we came back and played hard," Vargo pointed out. "We took their best shot and made it a game."
Magnolia scored the first seven of the second stanza (Winters getting five) to extend its advantage to 10 (28-18). The Eagles led 46-32 at the intermission. During the initial periods, Tallman's crew was 16 of 27 from the floor (six for 10 from three-point land) and seven for eight from the line. Winters registered 22 markers, 17 coming during the second.
The Dons hung tough in the third, outscoring Magnolia 25 to 19. They were red-hot from the floor, hoisting 14 shots and hitting 11. Carnes scored 10 and Tyler Ewusiak six. A Spencer Campbell make at the buzzer allowed the Eagles to take a 65-57 lead into the final quarter.
A 7-0 burst to open the period, two coming on Winters' second slam of the game, allowed Magnolia to regain a comfortable lead and put the game out of reach.
"Without a doubt, that was our best effort of the season," Vargo said. "I'm so proud of our kids, they played an outstanding game. Give Magnolia credit, they were like a small college team out there tonight with Winters getting those two dunks. Plus, they shot the ball so well."
The Eagles shot 51 percent from the floor (31 for 60). Madonna wasn't bad either, canning 31 of 62 attempts (50 percent).
"I thought our kids played well and made good decisions," Tallman noted. "Madonna is a much better team with Comis and they never quit. Of course, Madonna never quits."
Winters finished with 38 points and grabbed eight of his team's 28 rebounds. Wilhoite contributed 19 and Stephen Rogalski 12. He buried his first three tries of the night (two coming from downtown).
"Mark is our go-to guy, no question about it," Tallman said of Winters. "We expect him to be our leader and have games like this.
"All of our guys are playing with confidence right now and that's something we need as we approach tournament play."
Carnes, who swished five triples, led Madonna with 21. Comis had 20 and six assists. Ewusiak added 14 and four assists.
"Ross gives us a sense of confidence," Vargo pointed out. "He brings a lot to the table that you just can't teach. He played well tonight. I think having him in there really helped James (Carnes). He was able to get his feet set and make some big shots."
Will Bowser hauled down seven rebounds for the Dons who had 26 as a team. Josh Martin and Carnes collected five each.
"I thought Bowser had an outstanding game for us, matching up inside with Winters," Vargo added. "And Martin did a nice job of stabilizing the middle for us. He caused trouble in the paint and that's what we want from him."
The Blue Eagles are back in action today, hosting Parkersburg. They'll close the regular season Friday with a home date against Greater Beckley Christian.
As Vargo noted, Madonna is now headed for its "second season."
"The second season starts Saturday and the second season is the real season," he said.
If Madonna manages to knock off Cameron, it will travel to Magnolia on Tuesday to continue tournament play.

I've moved from Windows to Ubuntu and I have problems converting my new books (in mp3) to m4b. There are a lot of Windows applications which could do that, but what about Ubuntu?
While there is many Windows based programs that can perform this via a GUI from what I can find on Linux or Ubuntu you will have to revert to a command line to achieve it.
You can try the method detailed by aking1012 but as he states I also doubt it will work on ubuntu - but you could try.
I found a step by step guide that details coverting the mp3 to m4b by first converting to a .pcm file then converting it to m4b but this seems a long way to go and requires a lot of disk space.
An easier guide is on Ubuntu Forums which requires ffmpeg, imagemagick and mp3wrap and a script that is downloadable from the link to run.
I'm not certain how well it works but may be worth giving it a go.
On the linux side this is supported by some versions of libfaac or the faac binary. Here is a link for gentoo. I don't know if the out of the box libfaac on ubuntu will do it, but I kind of doubt it. A recompile or medibuntu repo might be helpful.
M4baker allows you to do this with a nice gui. You will have to build it and mp4v2 from source first, as per the ubuntu guide.

I know that $\int_{-\epsilon}^\infty f(x)\delta(x)dx=f(0)$ but what about $\int_0^\infty f(x)\delta(x)dx$? I suppose we have to do this by definition since the lower limit is bang on $0$?
The dirac delta function is a strange beast. The entire notation "$\delta(x)dx$" is a little bit of a lie, because there is not actually a function that has the properties that the $\delta$ function is axiomatized to have, which are:
Using these, and the usual properties of the integral, it is not hard to prove that $\int_0^\infty f(x)\delta(x)\,dx = f(0)$ for every function $f$. The main point is that
$$\int_{-\infty}^\infty f(x)\delta(x)\,dx = \int_{(-\infty,0)} f(x)\delta(x)\,dx + \int_{[0,\infty)}f(x)\delta(x)\,dx = 0 + \int_0^\infty f(x)\delta(x)\,dx$$ and $$\int_{-\infty}^\infty f(x)\delta(x)\,dx = \int_{-\infty}^\infty f(0)\delta(x)\,dx = f(0)\int_{-\infty}^\infty \delta(x)\,dx = f(0)$$ Of course you can show by similar methods that $\int_0^0 f(x)\delta(x)\,dx= f(0)$, although this integral should always be 0. This is one way to see that no $\delta$ with the two properties listed above really exists as a function.
A way to make sense of this is to use measure-theoretic techniques and Lebesgue integration. We can treat the $\delta$ function as a measure; it puts 1 unit of "mass" at the origin and no mass anywhere else. If we call that measure $\phi$ and we integrate a function $f$ with respect to that measure, we really do get $\int_{-\infty}^\infty f(x) \,d\phi = \int_0^0 f(x)\,d\phi = f(0)$. The problem is that this measure does not have a density function (a Radon-Nikodym derivative) with respect to Lebesgue measure, and so we cannot replace the $d\phi$ with anything of the form $\delta(x)dx$ where $dx$ indicates Lebesgue measure.
In practice, people use the notation $\delta(x)dx$ as a purely formal device for calculations. That works out OK as long as only sound methods used for manipulating integrals involving $\delta(x)$. In introductory books, the entire issue is usually glossed over, with just a sentence of two saying "this is formally wrong but it works as long as you do it in the way shown here".
You are something of a victim of ambiguity in notation. The definition of the integral $$ \int_A f \; da $$ is taken over the open or closed (or neither) object $A$. As Carl M notes, we have that $$ \int_{\{0\}} f(x) \delta(x) \; dx = f(0) $$ by construction of the delta functional, while $$ \int_{(0,\infty)} f(x) \delta(x) \; dx = \int_{(-\infty,0)} f(x) \delta(x) \; dx = 0. $$ More generally, $$ \int_A f(x) \delta(x) \; dx = \begin{cases}f(0)\qquad&0 \in A\\0\qquad&\text{otherwise.}\end{cases} $$ When someone writes $$ \int_0^\infty g(x) \; dx $$ they are not being clear what the domain of integration really is.

Every time I start up DC Universe Online, it requires me to scroll through and accept the license terms - even when they haven't changed since I last played the game. Is there any way to avoid this?
According to a topic on the DC Universe PS3 forums, this was a known bug with no obvious cause. Many people only had to accept the terms once (and again with new patches) and others had to accept them every single time the game launched. There was no clear distinction between users who saw the bug and those who did not.
Those who were experiencing the problem reported it fixed sometime around February 12th (shortly after this question was asked). This date doesn't correlate with an update to the game, so it's possible it was a server issue that the DC Universe team fixed outside of the standard patch cycle.
Considering the inability to access and modify game config files on the PS3 (unlike standard PC games), it seems unlikely that you would have been able to disable this behavior altogether. If this was in fact a server issue as speculated, it would most likely prevent you from playing the game if the terms were not accepted.

A Carmi man was critically injured early Thursday morning after he apparently jumped out of a moving vehicle on Illinois 15 at the east edge of Fairfield.
Jason P. Schneider, 33 was taken by ambulance to Fairfield Memorial Hospital following the 12 a.m. incident. WFIW Radio said he was later airlifted to a hospital in Evansville for treatment of a severe head injury.
The Wayne County Sheriff's Office told WFIW Schneider was a passenger in a van driven by his estranged wife, 23-year-old Amy Schneider, also of Carmi. According to statements to police from Amy Schneider, Jason was attempting to get back together with his wife after a separation. During the conversation, Amy told her husband she wasn't interested in rekindling the relationship. At that point, Jason told his wife that he didn't want to live without her, opened the door and jumped out.

The Business and Economic Reporting Program at New York University has named two leading business journalists as visiting scholars: Bethany McLean, a contributing editor to Vanity Fair and columnist for Reuters who co-authored of The Smartest Guys in the Room: The Amazing Rise and Scandalous Fall of Enron; and Leigh Gallagher, assistant managing editor at Fortune and co-chair of the Fortune Most Powerful Women/State Department Global Women's Mentoring Partnership.
The visiting scholar program at NYU's Business and Economic Reporting Program brings leading thinkers to campus to enrich the academic lives of students by participating in seminars, delivering lectures, consulting with faculty, and mentoring students. In exchange, scholars receive access to NYU's Bobst Library as well as the university's research databases. McLean and Gallagher will continue in their current media posts while providing guidance to the program's masters students.
McLean graduated from Williams College in 1992 with a double major in math and English, then spent the next three years working as an investment banking analyst at Goldman Sachs. In 1995, she joined Fortune magazine as a reporter, and eventually became an editor-at-large. Her 2001 piece, "Is Enron Overpriced?" was one of the first skeptical articles about Enron, and after the company collapsed into bankruptcy, she co-authored The Smartest Guys in the Room: The Amazing Rise and Scandalous Fall of Enron, with Fortune colleague Peter Elkind. A documentary based on the book was nominated for an Academy Award in 2006. In 2008, McLean joined Vanity Fair as a contributing editor. Her recent book, which she co-authored with New York Times columnist Joe Nocera, is All the Devils are Here: The Hidden History of the Financial Crisis. She is also a columnist for Reuters and a contributor at CNBC.
Gallagher is an assistant managing editor at Fortune magazine, where she edits feature stories on a variety of subjects and has responsibility for Fortune editorial franchises, including the "Best Companies to Work For," the "40 Under 40" ranking of the most powerful young people in business, and Fortune's lifestyle coverage. Gallagher is a seasoned business news commentator, appearing regularly on television outlets, including CNN, CNBC, MSNBC, NBC, CBS, and Fox News, and is a contracted biweekly guest on American Public Media's "Marketplace." A frequent speaker at Fortune and other business and economics conferences, she serves as co-chair of the Fortune Most Powerful Women/State Department Global Women's Mentoring Partnership. Gallagher is currently at work on a book about the future of the suburbs to be published by Portfolio in early 2013. Before joining Fortune in 2007, Gallagher was a senior editor at SmartMoney, where she edited the magazine's consumer-oriented coverage, and worked for six years as a writer and reporter for Forbes. She is a graduate of Cornell University and lives in New York.

HCM Innovation In The Cloud (Part 2)
By Scott Ewart-Oracle on Feb 15, 2013
- How secure will your data be and will it be handled by different vendors?
- Will you be forced to comply with the vendor's standard or will you have the flexibility to personalize your application--without complex coding?
- Can the system grow and evolve with your business?
- Can you move to the cloud at your pace or is your only option to rip and replace?
- Do you have the option to choose between a public and private cloud?
By asking these questions, you can ensure that your cloud solution addresses both the complexity concerns HR leaders often have and the security and data privacy worries of IT.
At Oracle, we like to say that we support our customers from concrete to the cloud—from the data center to the database to middleware and the application itself. This approach means greater data security for our customers, greater speed for end users and greater ease of use for both developers and business users. Our platform services are built on industry standards, not proprietary code, and are run transparently in the cloud. We also offer other services in the cloud so should your company wish to expand your business suite or if you already run Oracle cloud applications, you won't have to worry about complex integrations. Plus, in our cloud, your data is controlled by a single vendor: Oracle. Unlike other HCM cloud vendors who work with a variety of contractors, Oracle owns its data centers. The company has spent over $1 billion dollars in recent years building out these gen 4 data centers and we offer global coverage and 24/7 active monitoring and support. And if you prefer not to enter the public cloud at all, we can deploy a private cloud just for your company.
No two companies are alike and your HCM solution should reflect that. The problem is that many of them don't, particularly when it comes to cloud-based solutions. Whether it comes to deployment, configuration and system upgrades, we've designed our solution so you're not backed into a corner.
If you've decided that your company is ready for the cloud but you still want to leverage an on-premise solution or if you want to try the cloud in a certain region before rolling out globally, we can easily support you. You can move to the cloud incrementally and add new modules or regions as needed, all while co-existing with your existing solutions. This is a drastic contrast to other cloud solutions, which require an all or nothing approach.
The flexibility continues post-deployment. We understand that you may want to tailor your system processes to meet your company's needs and that you may want to adjust the look, feel and behavior of different screens. We've made this easy for the HR user to do—no developers needed. In addition to screen configuration, you can add new fields, run custom reports, modify standard reports and create new process flows.
Finally, as we mentioned, you have the choice to deploy your solution in a public cloud, private cloud or a hybrid cloud that marries modules from both. This way you can have the level of control over your data and your upgrade path that works best for your company.
Oracle's HCM cloud solutions are trusted by thousands of global companies. And our on-premise HCM solutions and other cloud solutions are trusted by thousands more. But size is not the main point here: it's experience. The variety of organizations we've worked with—the different industries, the different global considerations and the different business models—has given us deep knowledge of how to overcome challenges and implement best practices. Have a thorny challenge? Tell us and there's a good chance that we've dealt with it and have the blueprint to get you over the hump successfully.
Business changes and technology needs to keep pace. We get that and are constantly working to improve and develop our solutions based on industry shifts, technological advancements and feedback from our customers. Over the past two years alone, we've come out with 13 Oracle HCM cloud releases. We operate on a regular schedule of continued innovation and pride ourselves on providing real value with each new release, not simply coming out with minor features and fixes.
At the end of the day, Oracle's objective is to make our customers successful. With technological advances and a greater understanding of HR's value by the C-suite, it's HR's time to shine. By attracting, developing and retaining the best talent and making strategic workforce planning decisions, you can help your company get--and stay ahead--of the competition. Whether you're looking to start with some basic improvements or you're ready for a complete transformation, we are here with the tools, the guidance and the support to help you achieve your objectives.

Dempsey to the Sounders?
Dempsey to the Sounders?
Just once I'd like to see the Crew get a major player off the transfer market. Who knows, maybe the new owner might have some cash leftover after buying the team.
Burn down the disco. Hang the blessed DJ. Because the music that he constantly plays, it says nothing to me about my life.
Burn down the disco. Hang the blessed DJ. Because the music that he constantly plays, it says nothing to me about my life.
What does this move do for Dempsey's game and the USMNT? Dempsey went from a top tier European team to a minor league club. I understand the move is all about $, but I can't help but think this won't do much for America's best players game.
Well, he's 30 years old and he probably wasn't going to crack Spurs' best lineup. If he's going to milk his remaining career for all it's worth and be in form for next year's World Cup, playing in MLS will do him more good than watching from Tottenham's bench.
For those who believe, no proof is necessary. For those who don't believe, no proof is possible
Yeah, I can't imagine this move gets made if Dempsey had any confidence he'd be getting regular PT with the Spurs.
Cincinnati Here We Go.
26 Years and Counting...
If Spurs sell Bale they will be reportably be bringing in about 4-6 top line players, that would most likely push Dempsey out. In saying that he wouldn't of had much of an issue moving to a mid level prem team but when you are getting on in years some times $$$ talks.

"The study brings into account attendances, finances, goals, competitiveness, caliber of players and managers, stadiums and success in continental competitions"
I wonder if the MLS lost points in that "study" for still calling it's self Soccer? If we wore looking at standard of play I would rate most teams similar to the Mid-low English Championship or High to Mid Dutch Erdevise league.

As for the term "soccer," your league uses it too.
The A-league doesn't use it at all which is part of the reason the NSL is now defunct, there was a big overhaul when setting up the new league back 10 days ago and one of the main rules was that football is refered to as football. The only time you will ever see the word soccer is when refering to the National team Socceroos, which is an old moniker which dates back to long before i was born and is still used as more of a marketing/brand recognition sort of thing.

Melbourne to Cincinnati - September 1st - 12th 2013
One thing I have noticed in watching EPL as well as Champions League is the quality of first touches and passing. When you watch some of the fringe guys trying to make the USMNT, guys who are some of the best in the MLS, their first touches are pretty abysmal. Even if your a second tier EPL team, when your playing a Man U or Chelsea, your first touches have to be good, your passes have to be accurate, you have to be technically sound or your going to get beat by 5 goals.
The biggest thing I have found is in the MLS you can be sloppy and get away with it.

In This Article:
A cesarean section is the delivery of your baby by means of a cut in the abdomen. A cesarean rate of around 10-15 percent is thought to be reasonable, although in most Western countries the rate has risen beyond 20 percent and around 30 percent of all babies in the US are now delivered by cesarean, an all-time high.
The increase is due to a higher incidence of cesareans in first-time mothers and a lower incidence of vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC) in subsequent pregnancies. Some women may think that cesareans are safer for the baby than a vaginal birth. In fact, if you've had an uncomplicated pregnancy, a cesarean is hard to justify on medical grounds.
Cesareans are either emergency or planned procedures. The doctor will assess its urgency with a grading scale. A Grade 1 cesarean is one that is done if there is an immediate threat to the baby's or mother's life. A Grade 2 cesarean is one where there is concern for the baby's or mother's well-being, but no immediate threat to life. A Grade 3 cesarean is done when there is no immediate concern for the mother or the baby, but an early delivery is advised, perhaps because of a condition in the mother or baby. A Grade 4 cesarean is an elective delivery planned to suit the woman and the hospital.
A Grade 1 cesarean is most commonly carried out when the baby is thought to be at risk, for example if the baby's oxygen supply has been reduced and there are signs of fetal distress. In this case, the staff will try to do the cesarean rapidly-within 30 minutes when possible, although it's important that shortcuts aren't taken that could put your own health at unnecessary risk.
Grade 2 and Grade 3 cesareans take place when there's no immediate threat to life, and these are more common than Grade 1 procedures. A Grade 2 cesarean may be done if your baby's heart rate is causing concern very early in labor and the prospect of a vaginal delivery taking place within a reasonably short time is low. An example of a Grade 3 cesarean is one that is done because of a failed induction of labor.
Around one third of cesareans are elective, or Grade 4 procedures, and the number of these has increased greatly in recent years. Reasons for an elective cesarean include a Low-lying placenta); or there are severe pelvic abnormalities in the birth canal. Some maternal medical conditions also mean that vaginal birth is not advisable.

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

Date: February 13 2013
An Australian tourist has been dragged into an alley and raped after leaving an exclusive nightclub in New York City, US police say.
The 20-year-old Victorian woman was attempting to head back to her hotel when a man grabbed her from behind and dragged her into an alley near the intersection of Madison Avenue and East 58th Street early on Sunday morning.
The woman had been partying at the exclusive Lavo nightclub, a favourite among supermodels and stars such as Leonardo DiCaprio and Gerard Butler, on the night of the attack, according to the New York Post.
The woman left the nightclub about 3.35am and hopped into a taxi, but soon got into an argument with the driver, possibly over the fare.
Police said the woman got out of the taxi and, moments later, her attacker pulled her into a nearby alley.
"The victim ... exited a yellow taxi on East 58 Street, was grabbed from behind, dragged into an alleyway, and sexually assaulted," a New York Police Department spokesman told Fairfax Media.
A resident of the area told CBS that such an attack was rare in the upmarket neighbourhood.
"That's pretty shocking because this is a well maintained neighbourhood and incidents of that nature don't usually happen," Donald Beldock told CBS.
The woman said she had been drinking that night and could not pinpoint exactly where the attack happened, only that she hopped into the taxi at Lavo, according to CBS.
Police are searching for CCTV footage of the attack to see if the woman was followed from the nightclub.
A spokesperson for the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade confirmed that a 20-year-old Victorian woman was assaulted in New York.
"We are providing consular assistance to the woman's family in Australia," the spokesperson said.
The woman's attacker is believed to be aged between 35 and 40 years old, about 187 centimetres tall and weighing about 86 kilograms. At the time of the attack he was wearing a dark skull cap.
The NYPD has released an image of a man they would like to question over the assault.

Does anyone know between GPS, compass heading and accelerometer which uses the most amount of battery (or how they compare relatively?)
I'm assuming somewhat naively it's:
accelerometer < compass heading < GPS
but I can't find anything to substantiate or refute my intuitions.
Clarification: I'm curious as to how it performs specifically on an iPhone.

Simulate for Android nor working with version 2.1.0 Build 678
Hi I updated to the latest version of Architect in the hope that a build for android would be possible now...
However it still does not work (It does for iOS).
The build seems to stop after this is shown in Terminal (OSX):
cd /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/theapp/

Sencha Cmd v18.104.22.168
...then nothing...
When I close Terminal I get this message:
Closing this window will terminate the running processes: java, adb (2), stbuild, bash (2).
Any help is appreciated...!

Sorry if this is a dumb question but did you check in the output path to be sure an apk is not created? When there is success there is little to no message I've noticed.Phil Strong
16 Jan 2013 12:28 AM #3
Well I repeat my reaction in another thread...:
It is not so much a problem that things do not work currently, it is a problem that it is not communicated properly.
If this was mentioned somewhere it would have saved me hours and hours of trying.
In the documents it shows how it should work but it does't and never has.
Why is the communication of Sencha so poor?

Russ Buettner
Russ Buettner is a reporter on the Metro desk, specializing in investigative and computer-assisted reporting.
In 2011, he worked on a series of articles with colleague Danny Hakim highlighting abuse, neglect and deadly mistakes in New York's system of caring for developmentally disabled people.
The series also showed how the system had made millionaires of nonprofit executives, one of whom billed his Medicaid-financed nonprofit $50,000 to help his daughter buy a Manhattan co-op while she attended graduate school.
In April 2012, the series was named a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for Public Service. The Pulitzer board said the series "revealed rapes, beatings and more than 1,200 unexplained deaths over the past decade of developmentally disabled people in New York State group homes, leading to removal of two top officials, movement to fire 130 employees and passage of remedial laws."
Mr. Buettner's other work at The Times included articles that led to the criminal investigation of a City Council member and covered Rudolph W. Giuliani as the former New York City mayor pursued the Republican nomination for president.
Mr. Buettner joined The New York Times in 2006.
He previously worked as an investigative reporter for The Daily News from 1995 to 2006, at New York Newsday from 1992 to 1995, and as a staff reporter at the Amador-Ledger Dispatch, in Jackson, Calif., in 1990.
While at The Daily News, Mr. Buettner's investigation of Bernard B. Kerik, then President George W. Bush's nominee to become secretary of Homeland Security, first revealed the issues of corruption that led to Mr. Kerik's criminal prosecution.
The Kerik articles came at the end of Mr. Buettner's multi-year investigation of Mr. Kerik's tenure at the New York City Department of Correction that had led to the resignation of another correction commissioner and the criminal prosecution of two other high-ranking correction officials.
His series at The Daily News in 2000 exposed the state's most sued doctors, leading several practitioners to leave medicine and to the passage of a law that opened doctors' malpractice histories. The series received a National Headliner Award for Public Service.
He graduated from California State University, Sacramento, and attended the University of Missouri Graduate School of Journalism.
He is married to Stacey Chiavetta. They have a daughter.

In his popular science book The Music of the Primes, Marcus du Sautoy tries to link the truth of the Riemann Hypothesis to the "randomness" of the primes. To do this, he invokes the idea of a "fair coin". This, he claims that probability theory tells us, must satisfy an asymptotic relation whereby the cumulative difference between the number of heads and the number of tails should be $o(x^{1/2})$. He then proposes the difficult-to-visualise idea of a "prime number die" with $\ln n$ sides, so that the probability of each $n$ being prime is $1/\ln n$. And he states that this die will be "fair" if and only if the RH is true. His attempted explanation is necessarily vague and impressionistic, relying on the fact the RH is equivalent to $li(x) - \pi(x)$ being $o(x^{1/2+\epsilon})$ for any positive epsilon (similarly for $\psi(x) - x$, or the Mertens function), and then trying to explain $o(x^{1/2})$ in terms people are familiar with (an unbiased coin toss).
I was wondering if something like this could be made more precise. Suppose we define the increasing sequence $x_k$ for $k =0,1,2,3,...$ where $x_0 = 2$ and $Li(x_{k}) - Li(x_{k-1}) = 0.5$ (that is, $\int_{x_{k-1}}^{x_k} dx/ln x = 0.5$). The idea is that each interval $(x_{k-1},x_k]$ has a 0.5 probability of containing a prime number (taking the density of primes to be $1/ln x$ as usual).
So we then have a "random bit generator": $b_n = 0$ if there's no prime in $(x_{n-1},x_n]$ and $b_n = 1$ if there's at least one prime in the interval.
So would this sequence of bits pass the test for "unbiasedness" which du Sautoy refers to?
We could consider $2H(\pi(x_n)-\pi(x_{n-1})) - 1$ where $H(x)$ is the variation of the Heaviside function which is 1 for positive $x$ and 0 for nonpositive $x$. This will produce the value +1 if there are primes in the interval, and -1 if there are none. So we sum these values and ask: is this $o(x^{1/2})$?
My guess would be that the RH will be equivalent to this function being $o(x^{1/2+\epsilon})$ for any positive $\epsilon$. Any thoughts on this?

Hyperthyroidism Doctor to Patient
Thyroid Storm: An Emergency of the Thyroid
There are really not many emergencies that we need to worry about regarding the thyroid gland - but thyroid storm is one of the rare exceptions.
Thyroid storm is a crisis or life-threatening condition characterized by an exaggeration of the usual physiologic response seen in hyperthyroidism. Whereas hyperthyroidism can cause symptoms such as sweating, feeling hot, palpitationsand weight loss - symptoms of thyroid storm are more severe, resulting in complications such as:
- fever
- rapid heart rate
- nausea/vomiting
- diarrhea
- irregular heart beat
- weakness
- heart failure
- confusion/disorientation

How I Got Hooked on a Reality Show
Golf Channel's 'The Big Break' Has Its Lame Moments, but the Choke Factor Makes It Great TV
In its second episode, back in 2003, Golf Channel's "The Big Break" staged just the type of stunt you'd expect from a reality show. No, the contestants were not required to walk across a swinging bridge while balancing a nine iron on their nose, but they were tasked to hit as many balls as they could, within 90 seconds, into a giant funnel mounted on a flatbed cart being driven back and forth. The winners tied at three each, forcing a playoff.
It was fun, in a way—a laudable attempt by the 24-hour cable channel to liven up a strait-laced game. But it was also bogus. Almost nothing about the gimmick related to real golf. Golfers playing actual rounds are never asked to windmill wedge shots at the rate of 20 a minute or to aim at moving targets.
Luckily, the producers at Golf Channel saw it that way, too. "Never again, we told ourselves. That was Putt-Putt," said Jay Kossoff, one of the show's originators and now vice president for original productions at the Golf Channel.
You have to hand it to the show: As jazzed-up and dumbed-down as many of the challenges are, they test bona fide golf skills. Shattering glass panes, its glitziest, trademark challenge, requires knockdown shots that golfers fighting the wind or seeking to escape from the woods through a small opening in the branches really do need. Plopping shots over a flop wall, 8 to 15 feet high, isn't something you'll ever need to do on a golf course, but finessing flops shots is.
I'd been a "Big Break" skeptic since the show debuted, hardly ever tuning in. But last month after Tommy "Two Gloves" Gainey became the first "Big Break" alumnus to win on the PGA Tour, at the McGladrey Classic, and wasn't shy about crediting the program with aiding his progress, I decided to give the program, now airing its 18th series, a better chance. It's still not going to bump "Homeland" from my television diet, but I did find myself squirming with tension almost as much.
Primarily that's because, boiled down, "Big Break" is all about choking—and isn't that a big reason, if not the biggest reason, we watch sports? To see who comes through in the clutch and who falls apart? "Big Break" puts its contestants, all of whom are excellent golfers, into choke-inducing moments from the get-go. It can be brutal. The show really ought to be called "Choke Factor" or "Gag Job" or "America's Top Screw-Ups," because that's the plot.
If you've never seen the show, you might be wondering where the fear comes from. "Big Break" is nothing like those giggly celebrity skills challenges that the networks sometimes air on slow Sunday afternoons, or the old Skins Games in which miked-up Tour legends traded birdies for a few meaningless $100,000 checks.
The contestants here are lean and hungry—minitour wannabes, languishing club pros, recent college All-Americans—who in each episode desperately want to avoid elimination so they can reach the final match and have a shot at the cash and other prizes on offer, the most important being an exemption into a PGA Tour or LPGA tournament. But most aren't seasoned performers. They aren't used to attempting do-or-die shots in front of cameras. One hundred percent of them choke at least some of the time.
"It's unlike any other competition," said Andrew Giuliani, a two-time contestant and the son of former New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani. "In a regular tournament, you build up to the high-pressure moments. You're in a rhythm from hitting other shots before you get to the big putt on the 18th or the tough chip from a tight lie to stay alive. But with 'The Big Break,' you're thrown into the fire immediately. A lot of times your survival to the next show hinges on one shot, versus the 280 shots you might hit in a 72-hole tournament."
The other great thing about "Big Break," compared with standard golf tournament telecasts, is that the competitors aren't the usual robopros whose primary life ambitions seem to be to tamp down all emotion. For each season, producers sift through around 2,500 initial applications to arrive at the eventual "cast" of 12. They bring in 200 or so for interviews and screen tests. "Definitely we want a mix of personalities. We want them to be real," Kossoff said.
In terms of interpersonal drama, the best season may have been the third, when a feisty Danielle Amiee clashed early on with laid-back Pamela Crikelair, and both happened to survive into the match-play final. (Amiee won.) The testy asides, sneering glances and gamesmanship are what we suspect goes on under the radar in regular professional tournaments, and would love to see more of, but seldom do.
Even absent animosity, there can be drama. At various points in every season, the show requires contestants to forge temporary teams or partnerships, which complicates the strategies. In episode five of this season, "Big Break Greenbrier," a contestant named Brian Cooper had to choose which of two competitors to take on in a two-hole elimination match. He picked his roommate and best friend on the show, Ray Beaufils, whom he thought he had the best chance of beating. And he did. It was a tough moment. Nothing had to be faked.
As a viewer, it sometimes takes patience to soldier through to these payoff moments. Make no mistake, "Big Break" is still a reality show, with most of the tinsel trappings of the genre: jungle-drum music to jack up the suspense, postmortem narrations by the participants that are frequently banal and self-justifying, repeated clumsy plugs for the host site, a general sense of stretching to fill out the hour.
But for golfers, on balance, it's not a bad bargain. The challenges themselves are often ingenious, involving classic risk-reward trade-offs and strategic conundrums. Many are adaptable as drills that can introduce useful pressure and greater precision into practice sessions, especially if you do them competitively with friends. Choking at the range, unlike on national television, can be fun.

The Oklahoma History Center is featuring a new exhibit from the Textiles Collection titled "Reigns Supreme: The Little Black Dress." This special exhibit opens to the public Thursday.
With the introduction of the little black dress by Coco Chanel in 1926, women have turned to this fashion staple ever since. Simple, elegant, timeless and classic are all terms that sum up the little black dress and its role in fashion history.
Drawing from the fashion collection of the Oklahoma Historical Society, this exhibit will showcase more than 30 examples of the little black dress.
Homage will be given to Audrey Hepburn for her role as Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany's, directed by Blake Edwards of Tulsa. An additional feature of this exhibit will focus on the Stork Club which was founded in New York by native Oklahoman Sherman Billingsley.
The Oklahoma History Center is located at 800 Nazih Zuhdi Drive, Oklahoma City. For more information, contact Jill Holt, curator of textiles, at 405-522-0794 or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com.

List with detail panel inside a tabpanel, is it possible?
I am trying to build an application that has the following structure:
MyTabPanel (TabPanel)
--Players (Panel 1st Tab)
-----playerList (List with itemtap event to display playerPreview)
-----playerDetail (Panel)
--LocationTab (TabPanel)
I want to put a list inside a tabpanel that can display a detail panel, is this possible?
I have enclosed my .xda file of what I have so far. If I move the playerList to out of the tabpanel and make it initial it works.
Any help would be appreciated. I am stuck until I get this figured out.

Can anyone help?

Absolutely you can, here's one way:
------First tab
---------Navigation View
------------Container (this allows the below List and Panel on the same page)
------Second tab
------Third tab
Detail Panel (push this onto the Navigation view for details)
Using the above you can have a list and panel on the same page, or, if you want to just slide to a new detail panel when you click an entry in the list then simply push the "Detail Panel" onto the Navigation View (see the CityBars example on how to do this), the Naviagtion View will automatically give you a "Back' button to get back to the list. When you create the components make sure they size correctly so that you can see what is inside them (he Navigation View for example - set "height" at 100%). Use the Design view and you will see the sizes.
Hope this helps.

hi celticboyone, first thank for your reply.
hi Celticboyone, first thanks for your reply. I should try the example you provided.
Last week I have tried a whole week to makes my example works. But it didn't
Actually, I just wanted the same thing like the example of sencha touch 2 oreilly.
A view with segmentedbutton, directly loaded when the application starts.
Then when pressed on the listview, you'll get a detailview with data.
Maybe you know how to do this or much better to provide me an example so that I can compare with it?
this is what I wanted:
- Toolbar
-- Segmentedbutton
- List 1 (dataviewList (for button1))
- detailview (after pressed on an item of list 1)
- List 2 (dataviewList for button 2)
- detailview (after pressed on an item of list 2)
Do I need a navigationview to make this work for example? Or do I have to use tabpanel to make this work?
Please help me out.
thanks in advanced.

You don't need a Tab Panel to do what you wish as all the lists and their click-through details operate independently of the Tab Panel, but you could put them all on the first tab. I think the first thing you need is to get the structure of your project correct. Have you been able to do that? Maybe like this:
1. Create a new Touch project and start with a Tab Panel under "Views"
2. In the first Tab add a Navigation View as a child
3. Add a Container to the Navigation View
4. Place your Segmented buttons and List inside that container
5. Add some data so that you can see it in the list
You should now have the main structure in place and looking like this:
Here is the code:
Ext.define('MyApp.view.MyTabPanel', { extend: 'Ext.tab.Panel', config: { items: [ { xtype: 'container', layout: { type: 'fit' }, title: 'Tab 1', iconCls: 'info', items: [ { xtype: 'navigationview', height: '100%', items: [ { xtype: 'container', layout: { type: 'vbox' }, title: 'My Title', items: [ { xtype: 'toolbar', docked: 'top', layout: { pack: 'center', type: 'hbox' }, items: [ { xtype: 'segmentedbutton', items: [ { xtype: 'button', text: 'MyButton' }, { xtype: 'button', text: 'MyButton1' } ] } ] }, { xtype: 'list', itemTpl: [ '
List Item {string}
' ], flex: 1 } ] } ] } ] }, { xtype: 'container', title: 'Tab 2', iconCls: 'info' }, { xtype: 'container', title: 'Tab 3', iconCls: 'info' } ], tabBar: { docked: 'bottom' } } });
Now you will add a new Controller, and in that you will trap an itemTap on the list, when you get that then push the Deatil Panel onto the Navigation view – this will cause the details to slide into view and you automatcially gte a "Back" button. If you need help at this let me know.
Switching the data in the list to give a sepatate list when different buttons are pressed can be done by changing the underlying data for each button tap, but you should get the above working first so you know it is good for the detail panel slideing in when you click an item in the list.
Hope this helps you.

Hi Celticboyone, first thank you for your detailed explanation and example.
I have try to make it as you describe, however I missed the last steps:
1) the push navigation didnt work, I got an error message ""
- note: as I have seen other examples, they just use 'link' the list and navigationview, when should I do this?
2) I don't know how to use the toggle. I can call it with an action handler, but thereafter? It should do something like fireevents to load the another list right? Do you know how to do that?
I have upload my xda example, with a little bit more configurations.
I have added two models (one twitter, and one customer model), and two JsonP stores, one with use of twitter api, and one with ajaxproxy to load from internal source data.
This is just for testing purpose and is fake data. (tabExample1)
The idea is simple, but it's hard to figure it out without any understanding on how to use actions and controllers.....
Yesterdaynight I have also play around and tested with tabpanels. I includes both xda files, so that you can compare the differents. (tabExample2)
I know I'm almost there, but still missing the last view puzzles.... hope you can help me out here
3 Jul 2012 9:12 AM #9
Wow, you have done a great job here. I took your Example one and just changed the "onTwitterListTap' action to push the twitter details, like this:
// Slide the details panel into view and set it's data if (record) { var details = Ext.create('MyApp.view.TwitterDetail', { }); details.setData(record.data); this.getMainNaviView().push(details); }
Hope this helps a little further
3 Jul 2012 9:43 AM #10
I just looked at the O'Reilly example - I think it is a little different than what you are doing since the segmented buttons simply filter the same list. In other words, there is just one list and clicking the buttons filters by date. What you have are two different lists with two different stores. So, in place of the single List you have now you will need to replace that with something like a Panel and set it's layout of"Card" so that it can have multiple cards. Then put one list one one card and the other list on the other card. Then use the buttons to simply switch between cards - you use .setActiveItem(#) on the panel to switch between it's different cards. Try it is a small project first until you get that working. At least I think that is how I would first go about it, as always there are many different ways.
Hope this helps too.

Reviewer: Ryan P. Smith, MD
Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania
Last Modified: December 5, 2003
Author: Simmonds MA
Source: Oncology 13(8), 1999, 1103-8
The following is an excellent review of breakthrough pain in cancer patients. Breakthrough pains have a rapid onset and severe intensity with a short duration. It is a complex, frequent, yet poorly understood cancer pain syndrome. Hence, reviews of breakthrough pain are appropriate and needed. Mechanisms, etiologies, and most importantly, treatments of breakthrough pain are reviewed. The most difficult aspects of managing breakthrough pain are discussed, most notably the balancing of adequate pain relief and toxicity of increasing opioid medications. Therefore, alternative and supplemental analgesics, such as corticosteroids, are also discussed. In addition, the management of common side effects to opioid pain medications is reviewed as is the difference between breakthrough pain and end-of-dose exacerbation of pain.
The article by Dr. Simmonds is subsequently reviewed in the same edition of Oncology (Bruera E, Oncology 13(8), 1999, 1110; Manfredi P, Oncology 13(8), 1999, 1113-4) who further elucidate on titrating dose, routes of administration, and the differences in the types of pain commonly encountered (bone pain vs. neuropathic pain, spontaneous vs. triggered pain).
Overall, the management of breakthrough pain is a clinical challenge, due to its prevalence, severity and rapid onset. The supplemental analgesic agent that is selected should be fast acting, effective, and proportional to the amount of analgesic given for persistent pain. Toxicities of analgesic use must also be considered. The management of breakthrough pain must be individualized to maximize efficacy and safety.

Let $A,B\subseteq\mathbb R^d$ with $A$ closed such that $A\subset\overline{B}$. Does there exist $B'\subset B$ such that $A=\overline{B'}$?
Sorry, I misread the question initially.
The answer is no in general. For example, take $B$ to be plane minus $x$-axis, and $A$ to be $x$-axis. If $B'$ exists, it must be a subset of both $A$ and $B$, which is empty.
Here is a counterexample that is essentially the same as Sanchez's answer, but a dimension simpler. Let
so that $A \subseteq \overline{B}$. The only set whose closure is a singleton is the set itself, but that is not a valid choice in our instance since $A \not\subseteq B$.
If $cl(in(A))=A$ then there exists $B'$ as requested.
If $cl(in(A))=A$ then all points in $A$ are accumulation points.
We have $cl(A\cap B)\subset A\cap cl(B)=A$.
Let $x\in A\backslash cl(A\cap B)$, then since $x$ is an accumulation point in $A$, $\exists U \subset A\backslash cl(A\cap B)$, $\lambda(U)\ne 0$, with $\lambda$ the Lebesque measure in $\mathbb{R}^d$.
However $\lambda(A)=\lambda(A\cap B)$, so $A\backslash cl(A\cap B)=\emptyset$.
I believe (but I cannot prove it) that if $cl(in(A))\ne A$, $B'$ exists only when $A\subset B$.
Take the set of all inner points of $A$. If $x$ is an inner point of $A$, then it is an inner point of $\overline B$ as well, so it is an inner point of $B$ (as the closure doesn't add inner points). So $IP(A) \subset B$ and $cl(IP(A)) = A$.

Paged Grid Using a directjngine Back-end
I am trying to implement a paged grid panel using a directjngine back-end. In the long term, what I'd like to do is create a buffered (infinite) grid, where paging is handled when you scroll through the grid, but getting it working with paging is the first step.
Currently I'm able to display a grid panel with a paging toolbar and load the first page by subsetting the data to be returned. Unfortunately, I'm not sure how to pass back the total number of records (so the paging toolbar will show "Displaying 1 - X of Y" [where Y > X] and enable the next button). Directjngine allows you to use annotations to indicate which Java methods are callable from ExtDirect, like so:
Code:@DirectMethod public List<Map<String, String>> getRuleTableRows(int ruleTableId, int start, int limit)
Code:{ "tid": 9, "action": "DataAccessHelper", "method": "getRuleTableRows", "result": [ { "tableId": "55212", "83": "MERZ", "rowNumber": "0", "85": "Y" }, ... snipped ... { "tableId": "55212", "83": "BUIC", "rowNumber": "199", "85": "Y" } ], "type": "rpc" }
{ "tid": 9, "action": "DataAccessHelper", "method": "getRuleTableRows", "result": [ { "tableId": "55212", "83": "MERZ", "rowNumber": "0", "85": "Y" }, ... snipped ... { "tableId": "55212", "83": "BUIC", "rowNumber": "199", "85": "Y" } ], "total": "565", "type": "rpc" }

I tried that. Instead of passing back a List<Map<String, String>> list object, I passed back a PartialResult<Map<String, String>> object, which looked like this:
public class PartialResult<T> { /** the partial result set */ private List<T> result; /** the size of the complete result set */ private int total; ... snipped getters, setters, and constructor ... }
{ "tid": 9, "action": "DataAccessHelper", "method": "getRuleTableRows", "result": { "result": [ { "tableId": "55212", "83": "MERZ", "rowNumber": "0", "85": "Y" }, ... snipped ... { "tableId": "55212", "83": "BUIC", "rowNumber": "199", "85": "Y" } ], "total": "565" }, "type": "rpc" }

Hmm, at a glance, your class structure looks ok...have you set your store.proxy.reader.root config value to 'result' before store creation?
DJN has always allowed me to implement all I needed, even much more complex dynamic structures. The problem tends to be in defining classes the way ExtJs wants them, and configuring ExtJs object the way it wants.
In many cases DJN is pointed as the one with "the issue", when the real "issue" lies in the ExtJs side... kind of discouraging for me, as the author of DJN

26 Oct 2012 1:58 PM #5
I do appreciate your help. In general DirectJngine is working great for me. I just can't get it to work with a paged (or infinite) grid. Or maybe I can't get (ExtJS) paged grids to work with DirectJngine. Anyway, I'm trying to come up with a smaller example that shows the problem -- something I can post here. But that will have to wait for Monday.
Enjoy the weekend.

Smaller example
Here is a smaller example that shows the problem I am having: extDjnSample-src-main.zip. I have a simple grid which can contain a large number of rows. I can get it to load all of the data, but I would like to load the data 20 rows at a time. I can get it to load the first page, but it doesn't show the correct total page or record counts (or allow me to change pages):
The toolbar should show "Page 1 of 13" and "Displaying 1 - 20 of 241". More importantly, it should enable the next and last page buttons. Here are some excerpts from the code. First, here's the model:
Ext.define('extJsTest.model.HtmlEntity', { extend: 'Ext.data.Model', fields: [ {name: 'name', type: 'string'}, {name: 'number', type: 'int'}, {name: 'group', type: 'string'}, {name: 'description', type: 'string'}, {name: 'notes', type: 'string'} ], toString: function() { return this.get('name'); } });
Ext.define('extJsTest.store.HtmlEntities', { extend: 'Ext.data.DirectStore', model: 'extJsTest.model.HtmlEntity', alias : 'store.htmlEntities', requires: ['Ext.direct.*', 'extJsTest.model.HtmlEntity'], autoLoad: true, pageSize: 20, constructor : function(config) { config = config || {}; config.proxy = { type: 'direct', // To load all use: directFn : DjnHelper.getAllHtmlEntities, // directFn : DjnHelper.getAllHtmlEntities, directFn : DjnHelper.getHtmlEntities, reader: { type: 'json', root: 'result' }, // To load all comment out paramOrder: 'start,limit', paramOrder: 'start,limit', paramsAsHash: false }; this.callParent([config]); }, toString: function() { return 'HtmlEntities: count = ' + this.getCount() + ', totalCount = ' + this.getTotalCount(); } });
Ext.define('extJsTest.view.MainView', { extend: 'Ext.grid.Panel', alias : 'widget.mainView', store: 'HtmlEntities', border: 0, flex: 1, columns: [ {header: 'Description', dataIndex: 'description', flex: 2}, {header: 'Entity Name', dataIndex: 'name', flex: 1}, {header: 'Decimal', dataIndex: 'number', flex: 1}, {header: 'Group', dataIndex: 'group', flex: 1}, {header: 'Notes', dataIndex: 'notes', flex: 3} ] });
Ext.define('extJsTest.controller.MainController', { extend: 'Ext.app.Controller', views: ['MainView'], requires: [ 'extJsTest.model.HtmlEntity', 'extJsTest.store.HtmlEntities', 'extJsTest.view.MainView' ], init: function() { this.htmlEntities= null; Ext.log('Initialized MainController.'); }, initialDisplay: function() { Ext.log('MainController.initialDisplay'); this.htmlEntities= Ext.create('store.htmlEntities'); var view= Ext.create('widget.mainView', { store: this.htmlEntities, // To load all use dockedItems: [] // dockedItems: [] dockedItems: [{ xtype: 'pagingtoolbar', store: this.htmlEntities, dock: 'bottom', displayInfo: true }] }); Ext.getCmp('mainPanel').add(view); } });

Working Example
I have resolved the problem I was having. Here is a working example that shows the same data loaded 4 different ways. The application has 4 tabs, each tab containing a simple grid which can contain a large number of rows. The first 2 tabs show tables with all of the 241 rows loaded at once. The 3rd tab shows the data broken into pages of 20 rows each. The 4th tab shows the same data loaded into an "infinite" (buffered) grid.
The 'paged' tab of this example is almost the same as my previous simple example. The 3 differences between them are:
- Data is now returned in a PartialResult object, which adds the "total" property to the JSON result.
- I upgraded ExtJS from 4.1.0 to 4.1.1.
- I upgraded DirectJngine from 2.1 to 2.2.

Is it possible to use an iPhone without a SIM card as an iPod touch?

Is it possible to use an iPhone without a SIM card as an iPod touch?
I have an old iPhone 3G that no longer has a SIM card and I want to use it as an iPod touch. How can I achieve this?
migrated from superuser.com Jan 29 '11 at 20:56
This question came from our site for computer enthusiasts and power users.
There is an Apple support document on how to do this. You don't need to keep a sim in the phone but you need to put one into it to activate it before taking it back out.
Here's the procedure for 3G and 3GS:
I use my old iPhone 3G as an iPod with no problems. When I moved to an iPhone 4 I removed the sim, wiped the iPhone 3G, and it works fine. It shows No Sim in the top bar, but it works fine as an iPod and connects to my wifi with no problem.
What kind of problem are you having? Any error messages?
You want to keep the old sim in the phone. iTunes servers will remember that specific SIM and allow the phone to be unlocked each time it gets restored.
The phone company will have removed that SIM ICCID from service so the phone will say "waiting for service" or "waiting for activation" but otherwise keep functioning as a wifi only device. GPS will work if installed. Even location will work using GSM triangulation as the phone can see the cell towers even though they won't let it on the network for data.
I assume your iPhone already activated, yes you can. Just remove your SIM card while the phone is on. Done.
Thank you for your interest in this question.

What is meant in Spanish phonology by the debuccalization of /s/ to [h]? What dialects does this phenomenon primarily occur in? In those dialects, does it take place in all cases or only in some environments?

Debuccalization is a sound change that consists in a consonant losing its original place of articulation becoming [h] o [ʔ].
Saying place of articulation, we mean one of these:
In most places of South America (except Mexico, guatemalan plateau, Costa Rica, andean Venezuela, Quito and ecuadorian plateau1, bolivian plateau and Bogotà) and in half of the southern Spain, the s in the last position of a syllable is an aspirated (a voiceless glottal fricative, /h/, that is, debuccalization) or sometimes not pronounced at all in some variants of the current language. For example, see the following sentence:
In the eastern Andalusia and in the Murcia region, the distinction between syllables with silent s and those originally without s has been preserved in the pronunciation of syllables ending in s with open vowels (that is, the contrast between open and closed syllable turned into a tense/lax vowel contrast. This typically affects the vowels /a/, /e/ and /o/, but in some areas even /i/ and /u/ have, in effect, a double set of phonemes.

How to install Master PDF Editor under Kubuntu? I do not have it in the repositories.
Could somebody write it step by step?
Thanks in advance!
How to install Master PDF Editor under Kubuntu? I do not have it in the repositories.
Could somebody write it step by step?
Thanks in advance!
Well, then the best answer I could offer boils down to downloading the tarball file from master pdf editor website, unzipping it and then running the executable file from there. This boils down to the following steps in terminal:
If this fails, then I'm afraid I haven't the foggiest what I can say that will help you.
I had the same problem - the buy button in my Ubuntu Software Centre is greyed out and unclickable. To install other programs, I got around that by using the 'install' option in the menu bar, under File. But in this case, for Master PDF Editor, even that is greyed out!!
So the only option remaining for me was to use the terminal - but how?
This blog in Spanish provides accurate instructions.
I paraphrase its pith here:
for 32-bit Ubuntu, use
for 64-bit Ubuntu, use
I was having some issues with this, but then I went straight to the Master PDF site and was able to download the .deb file and installed through Ubuntu Software Center without issues:
x86: http://code-industry.net/public/master-pdf-editor_2.1.00_i386.deb
x64: http://code-industry.net/public/master-pdf-editor_2.1.00_amd64.deb
Hope this might help someone!
Tried downloading and installing PDF Mod? It allows you to modify PDFs, albeit its probably not the best of PDF editing tools but it's a start at least. Just open up software centre and type, 'PDF Mod' click install and wait.
