White page after build Architekt 2.2.1 project with cmd 126.96.36.1994
Phil Strong
you said that Architect 2.3 will solve the problems between cmd and Architekt, so we do not need to do command line stuff or to delete or edit extra files here:
It might take some time if i wait for a new Architect version, tell then if you could please answer this question:
after genenerating the app then editing:
# .sencha/app/sencha.cfg
and after deleting app/app.js
and app/view/Main.js,
and after editing index.html:
<script src="app/app.js"></script>
<script src="app.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href=".res/default/app.css"> does not exist,
and bootstrap.css points to a not yet created css file.
if i sencha build production or testing i get a white page even if i change .res/default/app.css to packages/ext-theme-gray/build/resources/ext-theme-gray-all.css for example
Well that was for ext 4.2

I'm about to start device testing soon. I'm running the very latest production builds of ST 2.2 and Architect 2.2.1. There's a lot of information in this and other threads about fixing problems, workarounds etc.. with regards to publishing to iOS and Android with architect. Would someone on the Sencha team (Phil ?) please start a new thread referencing the latest/greatest builds and the problems we're most likely to encounter and workarounds.
I've not done anything yet but suspect (From all the cmd/st/architect) discussions, I'm going to have problems. <sigh>.

YMMV but I strongly suggest downloading VirtualBox and install Sencha Cmd there. I have been running Linux Mint and both Sencha Architect and Cmd installs right out of the box on that distro. I then use my NAS to transfer in/out of them VM when building.
I haven't built for ST but once the build environment is sane for the project I have managed to stick with it.
Just my $0.02,

Is your initial view a Viewport? No errors?Phil Strong
23 Apr 2013 12:57 AM #35
I need help on how can i access common component in my main project and do a single JS file build using sencha command?
Basically my project flow is
MainProject - all the src for these project . it will refer common/thirdparty projects
Common - It will have all common components needed for multiple diff project
thirdparty - library project having all extjs/touch libraries. So all my project will refer to thirdparty instead of creating libs in each project.
I am not understanding how can i design the flow which makes one minified file using Mainproject/common/thirdparty
24 Apr 2013 7:39 AM #36
well thank you phil and tangix,
i made a Viewport as a initial view then it works, before the initial view was a formpanel so i got a white page
after i installed linux mint in a virtual machine, then i installed apache, jre, ruby, compass, senchacmd and Architect, and it worked will with ext, after i copied app.js to the app folder.
So sencha has to do alot of homework regarding to develop under windows os.

Hello! Great Post!.. I am trying to integrate the latest versions of Sencha architect and Sencha Cmd (downloaded today).
I followed all steps perfectly..but I have some questions...
a) I make a new sencha touch 2.2.x project with Sencha Architect (SA)
b) I execute "sencha generate app <projectName> path/to/project" and I get this error:
[ERR] MERGE CONFLICT - /xxx/app/app.js [ERR] Please resolve manually - see /xxx/xxx/app/app.js
I think that is not a complicated error, I solved it, generating (with sencha cmd) other new app,and later merged the new app.js file with existing app.js of the SA project. Is it ok?
c) I generated models, controllers, views,etc using sencha cmd correctly,
d) I open again the SA project but I don't see the new files (controllers, models, views) generated. Did I forget execute some command?
My aim is use sencha cmd to generate MVC automatic code, and edit it with SA to add UI components, fields, controls, etc...
Is it possible?
Best Regards,

Following the instructions in this thread I made a "production build" of the application using Sencha Cmd v188.8.131.524, and now the pie chart is not displayed anymore whereas the grids still seem to work.
After building with "sencha app build testing" I get the following error when I call the application:
TypeError: name is undefined
if (name === from || name.substring(0, from.length) === from) {
which is a line in the function "parseNamespace".
After reading this post I started all over again with a new project containing nothing but the pie chart, but I still get the same error.

The guide is below, but 1st an important discussion, particularly considering the frustration this Achievement can bring.
OK, selfish is too strong a word, for most people anyway. Forgetful, unthinking (not it a bad way I promise) might be better words.
Or, are you a generous, considerate Achievement Hunter.
Levels of Generosity
- Share with All
- Share with Guild
- Share with mates
- Share with everyone, except "Fred".
- Share with none
- I share with all, without thinking about it. If I see an achievement waiting to be plucked, or shared with the common populace of Alliance Aman'Thul, I yell it up and down the streets.
- Others will just send a message in Guild chat… that's what Guildies are for right, to share, to help.. and screw the rest.
- Some will share just with their mates, even if their mates are in the guild, they wont make it public.
- Poor Fred, he made the mistake of saying he was going to beat everyone in the Achievement hunting stakes, so when you see an achievement on offer, do you share it around Fred's back? (Yes Mr. Tree, I am talking about you and Mr.Z!… of course you do it intentionally sloppily)
- Maybe it's all about you. Share with no one. Sure you can't get server 1st, but you can get server 3,452nd and you wont settle for 3,453rd.
It's up to you, but please share with ALL!
So, we are getting closer to the details of this achievement, but 1st the basic mechanics.
- There are 8 spawn locations for 8 tomes of magic.
- There is a 3 hour cooldown from when a book is touched at any of the spawn locations before another will spawn.
- That respawn will occur any time in the following hour.
- So it can take anywhere from 3 – 4 hours for a tome to spawn.
- Once the book is clicked, it remains for 3 minutes, but can be clicked on by anyone during that 3 minutes for credit.
Painful nah?
But wait, it gets worse!
That spawn may be one of the desired tomes, or it may be a trashy magazine… which ever spawns, the cooldown timer starts again.
So, you could sit in one spot for 4 hours, 8 hours, 12 hours and never see anything but trash (assuming you didn't choose a 3 minute bio just as the book spawned.)
Study Methods
There are 5 basic methods of trying to achieve this achievement.
- Camping
- Calculated Camping
- Speedreading
- Random Educational Encounters.
- Cliff Notes
Go to the location of the required spawn, bring food, drinks, entertainment and a sleeping bag.
Sit, wait, watch – don't sleep or leave for a bio!
There was a guy doing this over the weekend. I struck up a conversation with him. He had been watching the same bookshelf for 6 hours. He had two crappy books spawn. 3 hours later another crappy book spawned. An hour later he asked when it was likely the next chance would occur. When I said 2-3 hours his heart broke.
Of course, if you are confined to bed with a notebook, can't raid, BG, quest, or even move, then this is probably a good use of your time.
Calculated Camping.
Calculated camping is where you estimate the spawn time, you could just note on a piece of paper when the last spawn occurred (assuming you know), then drop back around the 3 hour mark and keep an eye out for the next hour.
Or, you could download Dalaran University to do the respawn timing for you.
Dalaran University is a timer mod. All it does is time the cooldown and estimated respawn periods for a book where the last respawn is known.
It can know when the last respawn for a book was via 3 methods.
- Clicking on a book in the spawn location.
- Manually entering a last spawn time.
- Syncing with other Dalaran University users
Needless to say, the 3rd method is the ideal one, but this relies on other people using the mod and knowing the last time a book spawned. At this point in time I think I am the only user on Aman'Thul that uses it… so I can't get info from others, and my information is generally wasted as I have no one to share it (automatically) with.
Still, the 1st two options (well, the 2nd one if someone can tell you) are still good. You see, once you know when your desired tomes wont spawn, you can go get a life, or put your life on hold because you know a spawn is imminent.
Do yourself a favor before starting out on this achievement. Download the addon – trust me, it's nice to know you can go and do stuff without fear of missing a chance at a book.
Well, maybe not so much as speed reading, maybe more like timed obstacle course.
When a book spawns, it remains present for 3 minutes, so you want a method of getting around Dalaran to all your spawn points quickly enough that you will catch even the book you just missed.
This is worth doing for a bit even if you don't intend to do it for a long time, even if the books you find are rubbish, just because you will set your Dalaran University timers when you do find a spawn.
I could give you a million screenshots of the locations of these tomes, or you could just watch the youtube video, which will not only show you the locations, but give you an efficient route to keep track of the spawn point.
Random Educational Encounters.
Of course you could just bump into the books.
Just finished a raid, instance, battleground, whatever… have a quick peek!
Of course, your one chance drop in over any 4 hour period would make you lucky… maybe as lucky as a Gnome.
All the more reason to install Dalaran University, because if you get 1/2 lucky and find a book, just the wrong one, at least you will know when there is a chance of finding the real one.
Cliff Notes
Of course you could just utilize kind, generous Gnomes like myself.
This brings me full circle to my discussion about whether you are a generous or selfish achievement hunter.
When I find a tome, a real tome, the 1st thing I do is:
/1 [Higher Learning] book Introduction at Violet Gate NOW!
/2 [Higher Learning] book Introduction at Violet Gate NOW!
/4 [Higher Learning] book Introduction at Violet Gate NOW!
Yeah, I spam it on 3 of the "global" channels. I let every Alliance in Dalaran, plus the others elsewhere that are monitoring trade and LFG know that the book has spawned. They then know they have up to 3 minutes to get a move on to pick up the book.
You know what happens then?
There is a stream of bodies flowing to the book. It amazes me sometimes how quickly they get there, before I have even had a chance to click on the book.
Often this is followed my a stream of public &/ private thanks and updates on how many other people need.
Very rarely (like last night) you get called a "rude c*"
I can't say I was happy with this. The book spawned just as my Arena invite came through. I had 3 options.
- Take the Arena, screw the book.
- Take the Arena, take the book, screw the public.
- Take the Arena, take the book, inform the public.
I chose 3 (because I had been hunting for that book for 2 days, so I wasn't taking option1), which put us at a disadvantage in the Arena, as I didn't have time to buff. It was worth it though, the stream of thanks gave me a smile, but the
Where is it?
became an issue. You see I was mid-fight, but between GCD's I shot off:
Violet Gate
but that wasn't enough
Where is that?
my response was as long as I could make it under the circumstances.
ask someone else
I wasn't being rude, I was just mid combat… though I probably shouldn't have bothered, I was distracted, unbuffed and dying pretty fast.
When I got out of the arena, my blood began to boil, because there was one last whisper from the guy
rude c*
I was pretty angry, even more so after finding he had logged before copping my spray. He got it in a mail in the end.. the message of the mail was quite simple:
If you don't know what is required for the achievement, do some research! I told you it was ready, it's your job to know where to get it.
I mean seriously. I have spent about 12 hours hunting for these books to the exclusion of anything else, then announcing it so everyone online gets a crack at it, and this guy wants me to give him the whole run down?
Basically if you don't know where the specific books spawn, you probably wont get to them before they despawn.
Anyway, I don't recall him tapping me on the shoulder to tell me the books were ready NOW.
Of course Rustee from Slash 2 podcast put me straight on Twitter shortly after.
@Gnomeaggedon Stop trying to be so helpful you jerk!
But where are they you rude c*?
So as a final service to you Higher Learning achievement hunters, here are the spawn locations on a map of Dalaran
If you are just showing off your gearscore, why not be useful as well?
On a final note, if you are just mellowing out in Dalaran, download the Dalaran University Addon, and do laps… it's a great way to build your navigation skills…
See if you can make the whole route mounted… sometimes you don't dismount in the buildings!
Meanwhile, you are building up spawn timers for everyone else.
Maybe even get the achievement for yourself
Ohh, wait! What's this?
[09:59:35] [4] [80:Gnomeaggedon]: [Higher Learning] Divination ready in Upper Violet Citidel NOW
[10:04:47] [1] [80:Gnomeaggedon]: Higher Learning book Conjuration in Lower Violet Citadel NOW!
[10:04:56] [80:Gnomeaggedon] has earned the achievement [Higher Learning]!
[10:05:06] Lei thanks you.
[10:05:41] [1] [80:Gnomeaggedon]: and with that, it is done
I called out the 1st one… watched 5 people stream past to grab it.
I called out the 2nd one… watched 10 people stream in to get it.
Then I watched as chat became alive with people calling out a 3rd book spawn!
GJ & GL folks!
But wait, there's more?
I can hang with the Archmage now?
You have something for me?
Awww, I think I look good in this, don't you?
PS: Yes, I started this post with 2 tomes to collect and finished it with a completed Achievement… miracles do happen!
Gnomer and Out!

One of the biggest problems with selling lighting control systems is the large upfront cost. Manufacturers such as Lutron and Crestron offer very powerful and reliable products, but they also come with a big price tag. Control4 is looking to grab some of this market by offering the flexibility to add one room at a time to your lighting system.
Control4 Makes Home Automation Affordable
John Pickering owns a home theater installation company in Orlando. He has been selling lighting control products of one variety or another for over 15 years. But up until recently the number of homeowners that opted to install full blown lighting systems was actually quite small. He estimates that about 15% of their total jobs decided to go with a whole house lighting control package.
The number one reason given for not doing it was the cost. Even a moderately sized house a lighting system could run upwards of $60,000. And this typically wouldn't include the labor for installation and programming. This is a hefty sum to homeowners when the alternative is so much cheaper.
This changed dramatically when John started offering Control4 lighting products. He claimed there were two reasons in particular that made it such an easy sell.
First and foremost it is easy to install the system one switch at a time. There's no need to purchase expensive lighting modules that often run over $1,000 a piece. You simply replace the switches that you want on the lighting system with Control4 switches. They communicate wirelessly with the automation controller.
The second reason lighting is an easy up-sell with Control4 is that the lighting icon on the touch panel remains in place even if you don't have lighting control. At first this seemed like an annoyance. But it turns out it serves as a constant reminder to the client that their system was capable of more than what they were doing with it. John mentioned that he must've sold over a dozen lighting system upgrades due to this one little quirk on the touch panel.
Ease of Setup and Installation
While the lighting keypads themselves should be installed by a licensed electrician, the setup, installation, and programming is a snap. One of the difficulties with Lutron and Crestron systems is having a qualified programmer on staff that can handle all of the programming work required for these systems.
While Control4 systems do require some training, the amount of programming knowledge required is absolutely zero. This takes the pressure off of integrators to keep a high salary programmer on staff at all times.
Each new version of the operating system sees enhancements and improvements in the way the system is installed and operates. It's turning home automation into a much more reliable feature in homes and it's making the systems much more profitable for dealers to carry.

A Numbers Game
Screening for colorectal cancer
For example, last year Dr. Soneji published research showing that African-Americans have consistently worse stage-specific colorectal cancer rates than Caucasians, and that the gap between survival rates for African-Americans and Caucasians is widening over time.
"The question policymakers have to ask themselves is, 'Who would benefit the most screening?' It's easy to say, 'Everyone,' but in an era of limited resources that's not a useful answer," he comments.
Since 2001, Medicare has covered the cost of colonoscopies for patients aged 65 and older, and Soneji's data show that these "young elderly" benefit tremendously from colorectal cancer screening relative to cost. "What we find in our new work is that 55-59 and 60-64-year-olds may benefit the most from colorectal cancer screening because, as a population subgroup, they are old enough to have developed polyps, some of which could become cancer in later life," he says. "The question we struggle with is how to effectively screen those most at risk, even in these age groups."
But selling the benefits of public health campaigns is always a challenge, he adds, "and some of the benefits aren't obvious. An important side benefit to colorectal cancer screening is greater participation of adults in health care. People may become more comfortable with the idea of timely and appropriate colorectal cancer screening and share their experience with their family and friends."
The ultimate goal, he says, "is developing high qualify, safe, and cost-effective screening programs that benefit the most number of people and harm the least."

Fred Barnes: Obama's Inaugural Intentions
The president reached out to Democratic interest groups. Republicans? Not so much.
President Obama wants more government. In his second inaugural address, he masked the message with phrases like "collective action" and doing "things together." But these were stand-ins—euphemisms, really—for a bigger and more ambitious federal government. That's the unmistakable goal of his second term, and his inaugural address was devoted to his determination to achieve it.
Mr. Obama paid lip service to reducing "the size of our deficit." This was followed by a crucial "but" as he went on to defend a series of programs he is unwilling to cut, including Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security. "These things do not sap our initiative," he declared. "They strengthen us."
Related Video
In effect, Mr. Obama endorsed the entire liberal agenda as the guiding star of his next four years in the White House. He reached out to various interest groups in the Democratic coalition—gays, minorities, feminists, the poor, immigrants. But to Republicans, he offered nothing, not even a vague desire to meet them halfway or reach bipartisan agreements on taxes, spending or anything else.
So there won't be a "grand bargain" in Mr. Obama's second term. As for the looming debt crisis, the president didn't give it so much as an anxious nod. His mind was on growing government.
The speech should debunk two myths about Mr. Obama and his presidency, both trumpeted by liberal commentators and Democratic activists. One is that the president is really a pragmatist and a centrist. Not so. Only an ideologically committed liberal could have delivered the address that Mr. Obama did.
The other myth is that Mr. Obama is eager to compromise with Republicans but has faced unprecedented obstructionism on their part. The speech told a different tale. It showed the president bent on pursuing an agenda with few if any sweeteners for Republicans.
The highly partisan theme was a departure from recent second inaugural addresses. In 2005, George W. Bush talked about spreading freedom and touched on national unity and healing. In 1997, Bill Clinton called for "a government that is smaller, lives within its means, and does more with less." In 1973, Richard Nixon emphasized peace. In 1985, Ronald Reagan advocated "steps to permanently control government's power to tax and spend." (See Notable & Quotable nearby.)
If there is a model for Mr. Obama's speech, it is FDR's famous inaugural address in 1937, when he unabashedly extolled government. "Democratic government has the innate capacity to protect its people against disasters once considered inevitable, to solve problems once considered unsolvable," FDR declared. Mr. Obama was less explicit, but his emphasis was on the virtues of government.
Perhaps we shouldn't have been surprised. For nearly two years, Mr. Obama has been touting government programs (except defense) while criticizing Republicans as morally deficient in their demands for reductions in spending. At a news conference a week ago, he said Republicans "have suspicions about whether government should make sure that kids in poverty are getting enough to eat or whether we should be spending money on medical research."
Indeed, the merits of government and the heartlessness of Republicans were the chief talking points of Mr. Obama's re-election campaign. And while he muffled those themes in his address, he didn't abandon them.
"We reject the belief that America must choose between caring for the generation that built this country and investing in the generation that will build its future," he said. Who might those cruel rejectionists be? Mr. Obama's implication was clear—they're Republicans.
And "some may still deny the overwhelming judgment of science" about global warming, the president said, but "none can avoid the devastating impact of raging fires, and crippling drought, and more powerful storms." He didn't identify the anti-science "some," but it's an easy guess whom he had in mind.
The day before the inaugural speech, the president's senior political adviser, David Plouffe, laid out Mr. Obama's strategy for defeating Republicans. On CNN, Mr. Plouffe claimed that Republicans in Washington are a "barrier to progress" and "out of the mainstream." He contrasted them with "Republicans in the country who are seeking compromise, seeking balance."
There's no empirical basis for this supposed gap in the GOP ranks. But Mr. Obama and his aides would like to create one by driving a wedge between Republicans. The Democrats will first need a better understanding of the opposition: Republicans in Washington are more attuned to compromise than those outside.
A hardy perennial of Obama speeches is an expression of wariness about government. "We have never relinquished our skepticism of central authority, nor have we succumbed to the fiction that all society's ills can be cured through government alone," he said in his inaugural address. But the speech contradicted this claim, since practically all the solutions it stressed were government ones.
Mr. Obama also likes to refer to obsolete programs—"We understand that outworn programs are inadequate to the needs of our time"—without citing any in particular for extinction.
And there was another bit of misdirection—a classic Obama rhetorical trick—in the address. "Progress does not compel us to settle the centuries-long debate about the role of government for all time," he said, "but it does require us to act in our time." Practically every word of his second inaugural speech said that Mr. Obama knows precisely what the role of government should be: a big one.
Mr. Barnes is the executive editor of the Weekly Standard.

I want the user to feel like they are writing on notebook paper while inputting into a textarea. How may I do this?

Several ways. You can use a notepaper background on a text area. So then it feels like the user is writing on paper. Then, using either @font-face or cufon, find a suitable hand writing text (I like Biro, especially in blue) and then assign the font type to the text area as this font.
I think this is the easiest way to achieve what you want.

Chinese Herbal Medicine: Materia Medica, 3rd edition (9780939616428)
Publisher: Eastland Press
Binding: Hardcover
The new 3rd edition of Chinese Herbal Medicine: Materia Medica is designed to give practitioners the information they need to practice Chinese herbal medicine with greater understanding and confidence. It provides a wealth of new information -– more than twice the content of the previous edition -- and practical insight into more than 530 of the most commonly used herbs in the Chinese pharmacopoeia.
Drawing from a wide range of sources, both classical and modern, this edition provides unparalleled perspective and detail that goes far beyond what is available elsewhere to the Western practitioner. Among its many features:
- Herbs are grouped in chapters by function, with expanded summaries and tables for contrast and comparison. Each herb is identified by its pharmaceutical, pinyin, botanical, and family names, as well as Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and English common names.
- Key characteristics are provided at the beginning of each entry, along with dosage, properties, channels entered, and relevant cautions and contraindications. This provides a quick overview of essential information.
- Actions and indications are integrated with important combinations that illustrate the range of an herb's functions, with references to appropriate formulas. This presents a more three-dimensional picture of how each herb is actually used.
- Expanded commentary offers in-depth analysis and places each herb in its clinical context through rich historical references. The mechanisms of action underlying important combinations, and comparisons with similar herbs, provide a broader context for understanding how the herb can be used with optimal effect.
- A section devoted to nomenclature and preparation describes the most important methods of processing and preparing each herb, and the advantages of each method. It also provides information about other commonly-used names and historical background.
- Safety is an important focus of this edition, with an emphasis on proper herb identification. Issues concerning standardized products, desirable qualities, variants, and adulterants are explained for each herb. There is also extensive information on toxicity, as well as chemical constituents.
- The utility of this book is enhanced by its wide range of appendices, among which are color photographs comparing the standard and adulterant forms of over 20 common herbs; tables of herbs that are indicated for specific pathologies of the five yin organs; and extensive cross references of the herbs by taxonomy, pinyin, pharmaceutical name, and other East Asian languages. There are also comprehensive indices of both herbs and formulas, as well as a general index.

Frequently, perhaps even most of the time, I've noticed that the chazan (prayer leader) for Kabalat Shabbat switches tunes for the last four verses of Lecha Dodi. Is there any reason for this, or are people just doing it because other people do it?

There is an old minhag Frankfurt to sing the first part of Lekha Dodi, which refers to exile, to a slow tune, and then switching to a happier nigun when switching to nechamah (consolation) about the future redemption at Lo Seivoshi. However, in that minhag, they switched back to the original tune for the last verse, Bo'i Beshalom, which -- like the opening verses -- refer to Shabbos, not redemption. (See Liqrat Kallah pg 147.)
According to R' Ari Enkin, writing on Hirhurim:
I recommend that you read the whole piece and see what he's uncovered. Indeed, there doesn't seem to be a good reason to change tunes then. If anything, it might make sense to change tunes one verse earlier.
Variety is the spice of life.
I have often been quite thankful for this minhag (although I don't know the source). There are many times when the chazan (prayer leader) will choose a tune which is (a) painfully slow or unmelodic, or (b) nobody in the congregation knows, leaving him to sing alone. The tradition of switching tunes halfway through provides an instituted opportunity to cut the bad tune off and try again.
This is especially helpful for lecha dodi where there is such a large number of tunes that exist.

Android orientation change scaling bug
On certain Android devices (e.g. Samsung Galaxy S2), we found a bug that rescales the viewport on orientation change. This specifically happens when orientation is changed back to portrait.
Take a look at this snapshot to review the issue:
The issue is a result of multiple Android Browser bugs. You may or may not have noticed it, but it does affect your web application if you are targeting the Android population.
The fix is fairly simple and involves resetting the viewport on orientation change. For a more in-depth bug review (with video), visit this blog post: Orientation change zoom bug with Android and Sencha Touch 1 – FIXED
Essentially, here's what you need to do:
App.view.Viewport = Ext.extend(Ext.Panel, { // 1 - activate orientation monitoring for this component monitorOrientation: true, initComponent : function() { // 2 - only trigger for the offending OSs if (Ext.is.Android) { // 3 - cache the meta tag reference var viewport = Ext.DomQuery.selectNode('meta[name=viewport]'); this.on('orientationchange', function () { // 4 - reset the viewport settings with a high-enough width var reset = 'width=10000, initial-scale=1.0, ' + 'minimum-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=0'; viewport.setAttribute('content', reset); }); } App.view.Viewport.superclass.initComponent.call(this); } };

Have you heard the term hashtag used on television recently? The latest fad is to have your own hashtag and get messages over the Internet. I went to Wikipedia to learn what the heck a hashtag is. Here is what I got.
A hashtag is a word or an unspaced phrase prefixed with the hash symbol "#." It is a form of metadata tag. Words in messages on microblogging and social networking services such as Facebook, Google Plus, Instagram and Twitter may be tagged by putting "#" before them – either as they appear in a sentence, (e.g., "New artists announced for #SXSMusicFestival") or appended to it. Hashtags make it possible to group such messages, since one can search for the hashtag and get the set of messages that contain it. A hashtag is only connected to a specific medium and can therefore not be linked and connected to pictures or messages from different platforms.
What! I'm clueless. Metadata, microblogging – am I that out of it? I thought I was with it when I discovered what lol meant. Now really, who actually laughs out loud when they send emails? RU crazy?
Remember when the hash symbol was formerly known as the pound sign? When I am listening to the automated telephone service lady, she tells me to enter my account number followed by the pound sign. Will she have to rerecord her message to tell me to enter the hash symbol? By the way I thought this was the hash symbol "/". Now don't get me wrong. I'm all in favor of technology but really.
If someone understands all this, send me an email. Please no hashtags.

Petrobras has been building the refinery on its own after PdVSA repeatedly missed deadlines to provide cash and loan guarantees to cover the Venezuelan firm's portion of the $20 billion project.
By JEFF FICK
RIO DE JANEIRO -- Brazilian state-run oil company Petroleo
Brasileiro, or Petrobras, has decided to end a joint-venture to
build a refinery with Venezuela's Petroleos
de Venezuela, or PdVSA, the Valor Economico newspaper
reported Tuesday.
Petrobras will incorporate the Abreu e Lima refinery currently under construction in northern Brazil's
Pernambuco state and close the joint-venture company created
with PdVSA on Nov. 1, Valor said.

What is left over to negotiate on the contract could as well be significant. A re-negotiation approach will be helpful.

PdVSA is in DEEP trouble - both financially, and because it has lost most of the experienced and talented people - they were hounded out by Chavez - who could keep the company operating efficiently (or at all !!). It is no longer a reliable partner for other NOCs. The only source of hard currency they can fall back on now is to sell off their stakes in foreign companies in the USA, Jamaica, Finland, Germany, and elsewhere. Very sad.

Buffers are "no build zones" along local waterways. The buffer is a strip of land with a mix of grasses, trees and other vegetation. Plants in the buffer stabilize creek banks to reduce erosion, shade the water to keep it from getting too hot, and provide aquatic and wildlife habitat.
Step-by-step explanation of buffer requirements
Use the web to find out if your property has specific buffer requirements

a storm water SCM
Buffers are one type of storm water tool used to protect streams and lakes. Other tools are SCMs which would include:
SCMs do more than improve water quality. They temporarily detain storm water and release it at a slower rate into storm drains, streams, rivers and lakes. This can reduce the risk of erosion and some flooding.

The DWU Department of Athletic Training and the DWU Arlene Gates Department of Nursing combined forces for an interdisciplinary response simulation to allow students in both departments the opportunity to experience a realistic emergency situation.
To view the KSFY television spotlight, Medical Minute, click here.
The scene began with two DWU football players, Matt McManus and Tanner Munk, during a mock practice on the DWU practice field. When Munk took a pretend bad hit, DWU athletic trainers on duty responded to the scene under the supervision of Dr. John Swisher, with Avera Medical Group Orthopedics and Sports Medicine, acting as the team physician. The football player suffered a spinal injury and the athletic trainers assessed the situation, determined treatment and carried it out, all while being photographed and videoed by DWU personnel, as well as a Daily Republic photographer and TV crew from KSFY out of Sioux Falls.
"The DWU athletic training and nursing departments have been working collaboratively since the Corrigan Health Sciences Center opened this fall to create experiences for our students," said Lana Loken, athletic training professor and clinical education coordinator. "We began by creating laboratory experiences utilizing the simulation equipment available through the simulation labs within the nursing department. As we progressed, we began discussing the need for more interdisciplinary exposure for our students.
"Our goal for the event was to provide a realistic experience for our students which would not only challenge their knowledge and skills, but to also expose them to the realistic interdisciplinary culture of healthcare," Loken added. "Healthcare providers do not work in a vacuum. We work together with others who are trained to fulfill a specific role in the healthcare system."
After the athletic trainers were met by EMTs (one nursing and one athletic training student acting as EMTs), the patient was carried on a backboard to the Corrigan Health Sciences Center. Here, the groups took a break to regroup upstairs in the Arlene Gates Department of Nursing, where the Thompson Simulation Labs were set up as a hospital emergency room.
Enter the DWU nursing students, supervised by Dr. Martin Christensen, Mitchell physician, acting as the ER doctor. He took the students through the process of treating the patient, which was replaced by a simulation manikin. DWU nursing professors stood outside the room and supervised the process from monitors, feeding information about the patient's vitals to the students through the P.A. system.
"Both departments worked together closely for a couple months planning the scenario's details, partnering with physicians, and encouraging students to join in on this learning experience," said Carena Jarding, assistant professor of nursing. "No grades were attached to this, as we wanted to offer a fun, engaging, yet realistic scene that students could connect theory with clinical practice in a nonthreatening and safe environment."
The simulation labs are set up to be monitored and recorded for educational purposes, and the footage was broadcast into an adjoining classroom for other athletic training students and nurses to observe.
"Reaching across disciplines is vital for the healthcare continuum, and students are learning that firsthand here at DWU. This experience could not have been done without the help of willing participants, and amazing physicians," Jarding said. "These students will carry this experience with them into their practice to positively impact the outcome of their future healthcare participants."
To add to the realism, a distraught family member burst into the ER. Wyonne Kaemingk, nursing professor and A.A. program director, played the patient's mother, and student nurses had a realistic experience calming her down and extracting her from the room. Then students watched as Dr. Christensen talked through the patient's prognosis with her. In the end, their efforts were rewarded when the patient stabilized and responded to treatment.
"I feel that Friday's event was an example of a very real situation which can occur any day, and that the individuals involved demonstrated their ability to work together to provide an optimum outcome for our patient," Loken said. "We hope this is the first of many similar experiences we can provide for our students in the future."
DWU offers a Bachelor of Science degree in athletic training; an Associate of Science two-year nursing program; and a fully online upward mobility Bachelor of Science program in nursing. The placement rate for A.T. students into graduate school or employment is 95 percent, and the 40-year-old DWU nursing program has a 100 percent placement rate.

For Immediate Release—Wednesday, Nov. 1, 2006 - REVISED
Mary E. McCrank
Media Relations Officer

Laura Doan to Speak at SUNY Geneseo's
Rose Alent Lecture Nov. 13
Geneseo, N.Y.—Laura Doan, professor of cultural history and sexuality studies, as well as English and American studies, at the School of Arts, Histories and Cultures at the University of Manchester, will be the featured speaker at the second annual Rose Alent Lecture and Bash at the State University of New York at Geneseo. The lecture takes place at 3:30 p.m. Nov. 13 in the Alice Austin Theater in Brodie Hall. The bash will immediately follow in the McClellan House, 26 Main Street.
Doan, a former English professor at Geneseo, is the author of the award-winning book "Fashioning Sapphism: The Origins of a Modern English Lesbian Culture." In 2003, she received the John Boswell Prize for an Outstanding Book on Lesbian/Gay History by the Committee on Lesbian and Gay History of the American Historical Association. Doan is also the editor of several collections of essays on sexual identity, sexology, modernism and postmodernism.
Doan's lecture is entitled, "Topsy-Turvydom: Women, Sexuality and the Great War." This is also the title of her current book project, which is, "an attempt to rethink the ways in which we historicize sexuality," says Doan. "I'm focusing especially on the First World War because of its profound impact on women's lives."
It is no surprise why Doan was selected to speak at the lecture. "Each year we invite a respected professor in the humanities area," says Becky Glass, executive assistant to the president of the college. "Professor Doan was a valuable member of Geneseo's English department before moving to her current position at Manchester, and we are glad to welcome her back."
Doan is extremely excited to make her way back to Geneseo. "Since I left Geneseo in 2001, I've only returned to the United States a few times, and I've never been back to upstate New York. I was thrilled to be invited to speak at the lecture and I can't wait to meet up with old friends and colleagues," says Doan.
"I now teach in the largest university in Britain. There are more members of academic staff than Geneseo's student population. It's easy to get lost in such a huge institution, and I miss teaching in a place where you know most everyone. Manchester is a really dynamic city, but it's gritty. No one would ever accuse it of being charming. Geneseo, on the other hand, is a charming village, and I miss the beautiful views of the Genesee Valley. Most surprisingly, I miss the bitter cold winters and all of the snow. We're lucky if we get a dusting the entire winter," says Doan.
Even after teaching at a major university in a different country, Doan still finds that Geneseo students are one of a kind. "I'm often asked about the differences I've noticed between Geneseo students and the British students. The honest answer is that both groups of students are the same in a lot of ways. I think Geneseo students should know they are just as good as students everywhere else, and when it comes to their willingness to work hard and get ahead in life, they have the edge. Geneseo students should feel proud of their institution and their own accomplishment in studying at one of the best public universities in the Northeast," says Doan.
While at Geneseo, Doan established a reputation as one of the most distinguished professors at the college. She taught English from 1983 through 2001. She was the recipient of the Chancellor's Award for Excellence in Teaching in 1992, and from 1999-2001 she held the Robert W. MacVittie Professor of English Supported Professorship. Doan earned her bachelor's degree from the University of San Diego in 1973, her master's from San Francisco State University in 1975 and her doctorate degree from the University of Chicago in 1983.
The Rose Alent lecture is being held in the memory of Rose Alent. Known fondly to many as Geneseo's Rose, Alent passed away in March 1997 at the age of 74. Following her death, many alumni and friends whose lives were touched by Rose made contributions to the Geneseo Foundation to establish an endowment fund in her name.
A native of Bruhl, Germany, Alent developed the first French and German language courses at Geneseo and was instrumental in establishing a foreign languages department at the college. She was extremely dedicated to the college and her students, and frequently hosted them for informal discussions and meals and snacks in her home. She also led popular annual tours to European countries for groups of alumni, community residents and friends. Alent earned prestigious awards from the French and German governments for excellence in teaching and publishing.
All members of the college and local communities are invited to attend the lecture and bash on Nov 13. These events are sponsored by the President's Office.

It is said that in Blackhole 100% part of the mass is getting converted into energy. Then how come Blackhole is having mass ?
I believe when most scientists refer to the mass of a blackhole - i.e. a blackhole having the mass of a billion Suns, what they really mean is that the calculated gravitational pull of the blackhole is equivalent to that of such a mass would it exists at the location of the blackhole.
PS: Perhaps you could also bring some reference with respect to where exactly have you heard that 'It is said that in Blackhole 100% part of the mass is getting converted into energy'
The truth is no one truly knows if 100% of the mass is being converted into energy. So without this assumption many other things are possible. Some think that since there is a constant flow of mass into the black hole, the conversion into energy is not keeping up with the rate the matter is being consumed, therefore the mass would remain substantially large.

This question is very naive, but it will help me a lot in getting in to the vast literature about stacks.
The question is this: there are many kinds of stacks (algebraic spaces, DM, algebraic stacks, Artin stacks, geometric stacks...). What would be a catch-phrase you would use to describe them, and more importantly to differentiate their uses one from the other?
I'll give you an example (which may be off because of my lack of familiarity with subject): it seems to me that the catchphrase for algebraic spaces is that they are the result of looking at the "orbit space" of the action of a finite group on a scheme.
What catchphrases would you give for the rest of them (and how would you change the catchphrase I gave for algebraic spaces, if at all) to best describe their utility?

A New Bedford police officer was shot and critically wounded late Friday night as officers were executing a search warrant, police said.
The injuries are non-life threatening, police said Saturday.
Police officers, who said they found the door in an apartment at 224 Davis St. barricaded, said they were fired upon by someone inside the apartment.
Watch NewsCenter 5's report
"The suspect fired multiple times at the officers, striking one of them," New Bedford police said in a statement.
The officer, whose name was not immediately released, was taken to St. Luke's Hospital and then to Rhode Island Hospital, where he was listed in critical condition Saturday morning. The officer is a detective in the Organized Crime Intelligence Bureau of the department.
After a short standoff, five people inside the apartment surrendered and were taken into custody.
Nathan Manuel-Jackson, 20, of New Bedford, was charged with assault with intent to murder and Thomas Scott, 34, of Mattapan, was charged with accessory after the fact.
Police said the three other individuals may face charges.

It's possible to read online or snag .pdfs.
Now, I'm not saying they look very avant-garde *now* but they are of historical interest and might still be grist for the mill. :^)
I've always found it difficult to communicate with people in a way that feels meaningful to me. I've come to realise that communicating with people, in the sense of conveying content and sharing verbal ideas, is not, in itself, something I ever wanted. I communicate because I want to connect or to share a presence, and I find that when I get too involved in words and other defined meanings, connection and presence dissipate.
I want to use language – verbal, visual, musical, performative – but I don't necessarily want to know what it means. Do other people feel the same way?
I'm trying to start a zine-type project about this. You can find more info at about MIMSY. Anyone interested? Message me or something.

I was reading Destructoid's interview with the developers of Payday: The Heist where they go through the arsenal of weapons. One of the devs had this to say regarding the trip mine weapon:
Insider hint: Put a trip mine on the ground, switch off the laser beam (yeah you can switch it on and off as you please) and then when some enemy who can take a LOT of damage (cough Bulldozer cough) stands near it, shoot at the trip mine (preferably with a weapon that has some spread, so that you know you'll hit it) and BAM! That sucker is GONE!
This seemed to imply to me that if you turn off the laser beam, the AI may be less likely to notice and/or react to the trip mine. Is this actually the case? Or does turning off the laser sight just make it so the trip mine must be manually detonated, allowing you to be more precise about its explosion?
I don't have trip mines yet, so I cannot test this myself.

Whenever I open a .sh file, it opens it in gedit instead of the terminal. I can't find any option similar to Right Click → Open With → Other Application... → Terminal.
How do I open this file in the terminal?
Whenever I open a .sh file, it opens it in gedit instead of the terminal. I can't find any option similar to Right Click → Open With → Other Application... → Terminal.
How do I open this file in the terminal?
Give execute permission to your script:
And to run your script:
You need to mark shell scripts as executable to run them from the file manager:
Before you can run the .sh file, you need to make it executable:
Make sure you trust the source where you got the file from. It could be a virus.
The very simple way
This has problem. The terminal will close immediately and you will not be able to see the output.
The simple way
The way professionals do it
Why do it the complicated way?
The terminal has a rich set of powerful tools that are accessible by typing the commands. Professionals locate the .sh file by typing
or you can run and redirect the output to a file:
or you can filter the output for keywords (e.g. "apples") an then redirect to a file:
There are thousands of things you can to to that file just by typing a few commands.
Another one, you can download a file from the Internet with one simple command:
And then open the file like this:
On Ubuntu 13.04 executable files opened in Nautilus are now opened in gedit by default rather than prompting the user to execute them. To enable the classic behavior you need to adjust the preferences:
Nautilus → Edit menu → Preferences → Behaviour tab → Click the radio button near Ask each time.
Open a terminal and navigate to the folder where the
2 main steps.
Now, when you double click the file on the desktop, it should execute.
no need for
If you place your shell script or other executable you create in /usr/local/bin it will be found and executed without having to provide a folder path in the command line or adding ./ to the name. For example I created the following simple 3 line bash script to display disk UUIDs:
I called the file uuid and placed it in /usr/local/bin. All I need enter on the command line is:
There are a few ways to do this.
Option 1
1) In the terminal, access the directory the Bash file is in using cd (change directory).
2) Run
This also works with .run files. There is an example of this usage at this webpage on updating Rhythmbox.
Option 2
1) In the terminal, navigate to the directory the bash file is in.
2) Run
3) In Nautilus, open the file.
The problem i have found on a few distributions is they have hidden the preferences option in nautilus... but to fix it in both ubuntu and other distributions using gnome3 is the same (literally just done the fedora version of this and posting the actual fix to remind me how in the future)
1) install dconf-editor
2) run dconf-editor using the user account you want this on.. i.e NOT root
3) navigate to the following location
4) change the default option to not open by default
that will give you the option to edit, view or run the file going forward
You can also use
For example:
Well, I too faced the same problem. I wanted to execute the .sh file and it opened with Gedit on CentOS 7. So here is what I did:

Is there a standard way to determine a complexity of the specified SAT problem? I'm researching algebraic cryptanalysis and came to solving multivariate quadratic equation systems using CryptoMiniSat. However it would nice to evaluate a complexity of the full cipher equation system. Does it only depend on the number of polynomials and variables? And is there a way to estimate the time needed for solving the equation system and what parameters do I need to know to find that out?
No, there is not.
Your question is not well-posed. You have not specified whether you want worst-case complexity or average-case complexity, and over what class of SAT instances. The answer will depend heavily upon those details.
If you want to know what is the world record for an algorithm for 3SAT, measured by its worst-case complexity over all possible 3SAT instances, that's a question to ask on http://cs.stackexchange.com/ or http://cstheory.stackexchange.com/ . See, e.g., Best Upper Bounds on SAT and Measuring the difficulty of SAT instances. But don't expect these theoretical results to necessarily have any relationship to the performance of SAT solvers in practice.

Why was Stack Overflow forked into http://programmers.stackexchange.com/ ?
I don't understand this. I think it is stupid ;-)
What is meta?
- Any Stack Exchange user can ask a question
- The community provides support, votes on ideas, and reports bugs
- Your voice helps shape the way Stack Exchange operates
Why was Stack Overflow forked into http://programmers.stackexchange.com/ ?
Origin Story
If you browse questions on Meta for a bit, you'll quickly realize that there are a fair number of people who want to use SO for things that SO wasn't designed to be used for: discussions, polls, flame-wars, endless lists... And over time, this has created some amount of irritation on the site: some folks really, really want to, um, participate in questions like,
So rather than just stamping them out, like so many ducks putting out flaming elephants, some rose-tint-spectacled user got the idea of proposing a site for all the questions that shouldn't be asked on SO.
Programmers.SE was that site. It began with the tongue-in-cheek proposal Not Programming Related, named after the original term for what became the "Off Topic" close reason on Stack Overflow...
But quickly it became obvious to The Powers That Be that the questions posted to this anarchic paradise of freedom and love were... Not very good questions. They were popular - the site did exceedingly well, right from the start, in terms of participation - but... The idea that this site was destined to become the cesspool of SE didn't sit very well with the goals SE Inc. had in mind for their network.
So something unusual happened... The scope of the site changed, dramatically, during its public beta period.
Subjectively defining "subjective"
Ultimately, the question boiled down to this: how can we create a site that hosts the sort of good, valuable, but never-quite-accepted questions that've lived in an uneasy state of limbo on Stack Overflow since day 1. Not necessarily the "bikeshed" or "GTKY" questions that value participation over all else; honest questions from folks with real problems, questions like,
These are a terrible fit for SO, where they stand in stark contrast to the hosts of mundane or relatively obscure - but objective programming questions. But they're valuable, in that the folks asking them have a real need for the answers. If Programmers was to be something useful, then providing a welcoming host for these questions was a good start: a workable replacement for the doomed meta-tag-ghetto that had once held them on SO.
It's a small step from stuff like this to "What's your favorite programming hat?" though. A system for separating the wheat from the chaff was badly needed... And so we got The Six Subjective Guidelines, which lays out a set of criteria for determining whether or not a given question is appropriate for any site on the SE network.
And in the fires of discussion, the new definition for the site was forged, bearing little resemblance to that original, Pollyannaish proposal. Because Subjective is Serious Business, and this is a site "... for expert programmers who are interested in subjective questions on software development."
Further reading
Nothing was forked.
The new site is so subjective questions can be discussed by programmers, or questions that aren't programming related. It's to help keep SO free from that stuff so it can be a clean technical programming Q&A site.

By SETH STASKEY
The Buckeye 8 has announced its plans to expand.
Beaver Local and East Liverpool are officially joining the league, starting in the 2014-15 school year.
Along with the official newcomers, both Bellaire and Union Local have elected to remain in the league after both had formally submitted their letters of withdrawl.
Thus, the league's total stands at 10 teams as it prepares to move to a North and South format.
However, similar to some of the major collegiate conferences in America, the Buckeye 8 name - regardless of the number of teams - isn't changing.
League officials voted, 9-1, in favor of keeping the name "Buckeye 8" in place even after the Beavers and Potters formally join the league.
"The Buckeye 8 has a total of 10 high schools, but the Big 10 has 14 colleges and it's still called the Big 10," said Buckeye 8 President Steve Cowser, who is the principal at Indian Creek High School.
To reflect the addition of the schools, the logo of the league will be altered to include all 10 schools.
Once the two new members come in fully next school year, the league will split into a North and South format.
The south will consist of Bellaire, Harrison Central, Martins Ferry, St. Clairsville and Union Local. The north will include Buckeye Local, Beaver Local, East Liverpool, Edison and Indian Creek.
"As the Buckeye 8 continues to grow, the bonding of the high schools will promote great competition and sportsmanship among the local schools," Cowser said.
Once the league separates, there will be a divisional champion and an overall champion in all sports except for football. Football will strictly crown divisional champions.

Ombre Houndstooth Stenciled Rug Tutorial
(sigh) I love this rug. Is there any easier way to update a rug than with a little paint?! I think not! This is also one of YOUR fave projects from Hailee's Makeover.
The reason that its taken me so long to post it is because the stencil for it was originally one of a kind custom. But Melanie from Royal Design Studio and I decided that we love you guys lots and wanted you to have the chance to make something awesome with Houndstooth too. Sooooooo I had to wait to post this project until you could buy it!!
You can buy it here for only $39.00 and make sure to use the code VINTAGE10 to get 10% off!
First things first, you need a rug. The one that I used is from Ikea. It is an 8×10 sisal rug and will run you about $120. I measured the width of the stencil and marked with painters tape where each row needed to line up. If you look closely in the picture below you can see the little blue dots. By doing this you can get your stencil centered on the rug.
I used about 5 big bottles of Americana Snow White. Trust me, its better to buy a bunch before your start your project then to have to run to the store in the middle of it….
Then its time to start stenciling. We used stencil brushes to stipple the paint onto the rug. One trick that I learned (after I took this pic) is that if you mix a teeny bit of water in with the paint it will make it so that it spreads evenly and gets into all of the tiny woven cracks.
Use the markers on your stencil to line up the next row. And just like I do every time I talk about Royal Design Studios I am going to tell you how fantastic the quality of product that they put out is. The plastic that they use is different than other products that I have used and it is SO MUCH BETTTER! Trust.
So in the title of this post I am sure you have noticed that I called the rug Ombre. Its really hard to tell in the final pictures because it just looks like a shadow from the coffee table is being cast but in all actuality the pattern fades…its sort of fantastic.
To get this effect dilute your paint by 1/2 and stencil your next row.
Continue diluting it more and more until you get the level of color that you want. This is sort of a trial and error process but the good news is that if you make it too dark, or your stencil is splotchy you can use a spray bottle to dampen it and a towel to blot up the excess paint.
This is what it looked like when we were finished! Don't you love it!?!
Once we were done and everything was dry the rug (I think because of the nature of the sisal) started to become wavy on the edges. If this happens to you it is a really easy fix. Use your painters tape to tape it down to the floor really well. Then get the edges wet with a spray bottle or cup of water (obviously make sure that your paint has had adequate time to dry) leave it for a day or so until you know that it is 100% dry and then take your tape of! If it is still wavy then you didn't use enough water.

Amazon.com Review
It is in the spirit of this "soiled ordinariness" that Eugene Peterson translates John 1:14 (NIV: "The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us") to "The word became flesh and blood and moved into the neighborhood." Likewise, in Romans 8:3 where the NIV renders "For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the sinful nature, God did by sending his own son in the likeness of sinful man to be a sin offering," The Message reads, "God went for the jugular when he sent his own son.... In his son, Jesus, he personally took on the human condition, entered the disordered mess of struggling humanity in order to set it right once and for all." Peterson offers no pretense of elevated language or intellectualism, only the insistence that God is relevant in 20th-century work-week and weekend lives.
This kind of translation is not a new enterprise, however. Tyndale--the man singularly responsible for our English translations of the Bible--is purported to have said in a dispute with opposing clergy, "If God spare my life, ere many years I will cause a boy that driveth the plow to know more of the Scriptures than thou dost." We're simply glad someone of our own generation chose to do the same. --Benjamin Gebhardt --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

How should I finger A# and F# Major with the left hand, 5-2-1 or 5-3-1?
You should be able to lay all major/minor chords in first inversion as 5-3-1 (or 1-3-5 in the right hand). In most cases, F# Major included, doing anything else will generally cramp your fingers and make it harder to play.
The A# one could alternatively be played 4-2-1. This might help if you're having trouble stretching with your pinky to the black key.

Native American Tribes of the Great Plains
4 of 11
The Sioux, who are also called the Dakota, consisted of seven tribes in three major divisions. In the mid-18th century, after successfully driving out the Cheyenne and Kiowa from the Black Hills, the Sioux lived in the northern Great Plains and the western prairies, which currently comprises Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota, North Dakota, and South Dakota. The Sioux resisted white settlers, engaging in many battles during the 19th century. Under the leadership of such chiefs as Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse, the Sioux fought the United States to protect their land.
Featured Fact: The Tetons had the largest population of the seven Sioux tribes with about 15,000 people in the mid-18th century--half the population of the entire Sioux people.

This question is out of plain curiosity. The first sentence of Deligne's Les corps locaux de caractéristique $p$, limites de corps locaux de caractéristique $0$ (1984) reads (in rough translation) as follows :
D. Kazhdan has introduced the principle that the representation theory of a reductive group over a local field of prime characteristic $p$ is the limit, as the ramification index tends to infinity, of theories over local fields of characteristic $0$ with the same residue field.
He says that according to Langlands' philosophy, one should expect the same phenomenon to occur on the galoisian side, and goes on to establish a precise equivalence of categories justifying this principle (and clarifying the earlier work of M. Krasner from the forties).
I'm mainly interested in this side of the story, but I'm curious as to where Kazhdan's principle in representation theory was first enunciated. What are the standard references in English or French explaining this principle ?
