Im curious about what the best way to load a rails partial with jquery. So far I have tried a solution not working:
$('#imagecontent').load('/newsletters/_image_gallery.html.erb', function() {
alert('Load was performed.');
Is the best solution to build a seperate action and/or controller for this and set up a route? Im asking because making the first solution work seems more easy, perhaps not so restful.

Kingstonian (2033/2034)
Premier League Prediction - 1
Premier League Position - 1
Okay seriusly this WAS a very disappointing season After last years treble i was looking to try and win the only cup i havent won before.
The league cup! but that didnt happen after our loss at home to Swansea. And that was just the start. The first game of the season we actually lost to the team who were predicted to finish 20.
In the Champions League we nearly didnt make it through the group stage and just snatched the last spot in the last game.
The group was Valencia, Fiorentina and Dinamo. We went on to beat Lyon but in the Quarters Real was to good for us.
And the most embarresing thing of the season; We LOST the semi-final of the Club world ch. to Americá !!
We did win the league yes, but it wasnt pretty! and we did get to the FA Cup final, but had a really easy draw all the way to the final
FA Cup final still.. dissapointing season as we werent as strong as last year at all.
Ived just noticed that our Youth facilities has dropped down to good . hopefully this will be sorted by the board very soon!!
Would be terrible to let down all the good youth products the club is capable to produce
Escobar BIO Deserves mentioning. Been astonishing all season, a true Kingstonian Legend!
And won the European striker of the year and World player of the year, Footballer of the year and European player of the year.. He did also win the top goalscorer award happy he finally made it.
Bowler Is unfortunaly showing signs of beeing injury prone won players young player award
Henry Asked for transfer. Cant really let him play to much in the team.Not good enough unfortunaly
Because of spreading bad morale i offloaded the top goalscorer from last season and got a bargain offered from Chelsea in the same position.
Haper and Casado were pretty much equal so i earned 10m and got rit of the bad mood in the squad.
Goals for the upcoming season:
win the League Cup

To the editor:
The reporting of the high school sexual assault story has been wretched in all forms of local media thus far. I figure this won't get published or be national news.
The press, which knows the truth, must live with those details that are being withheld. The girl was raped. Like those who watched, the media let it continue. The morals of the United States have slipped another notch because of continued inaction and cover-ups. I hope I find a genie in a bottle because I'd wish schools will someday place an emphasis on education. I would wish the media would report the news and leave protecting and serving to the police.
If all my wishes came true, we would have a stronger and more ethical United States of America. In God we trust.

I'm working on a project solo and have to maintain my own code. Usually code review is done not by the code author, so the reviewer can look at the code with the fresh eyes — however, I don't have such luxury. What practices can I employ to more effectively review my own code?

There are either too many possible answers, or good answers would be too long for this format. Please add details to narrow the answer set or to isolate an issue that can be answered in a few paragraphs.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
First of all, make use of tools to check as much as you can. Tests (backed up with some reasonable code coverage) will give you some confidence of the correctness of the code. Static analysis tools can catch a lot of best practice things. There will always be issues that you need human eyes on to determine though and you will never do as good a job reviewing your own stuff as someone else, there are some things you can do to help however
This of course is useful when you are reviewing others code as well
Take a look into the Code Review Stack Exchange site. It is for sharing code from projects you are working on for peer review:
You can also use code static analysis tools to detect certain kind of problems, but they are going to produce false alarms in some cases, and can not suggest how to improve the design.
I agree whit jk-s opinion that single-person review is not as efficient as 2 person review. however you can try to make the best of it:
short term review (shortly after the code was produced)
I am using git as a local repository. Whenever I have finished a feature or fixed a bug I transfer the changes to the repository.
Before i check in I compare what I have changed in my code and rethink:
long term review (6 months after the code was produced)
I ask myself:
I've developed several totally different persons in my head. One of them is not even a programmer! We're chatting, discussing latest news and reviewing each other's code.
I strongly recommend my approach.
ps He is not kidding.
First, set your code aside for as long as practical. Work on something else, some other piece of code. Even after a day, you will be amazed at what you will find.
Second, document your code. Many programmers hate to document their code, but make yourself sit down and write out documentation, how to use the code and how it works. By looking at your code in a different way, you will find mistakes.
It has been said that true mastery of a subject is the ability to teach it to someone else. With documentation you are trying to tech someone else your code.
Transform this debugging technique to a code review technique: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubber_duck_debugging
The concept works wonders for putting you into a proper mindset for working through code as if it were new.
In addition to the useful tools mentioned in other answers, I think modifying your mindset it useful when doing a code review. It's silly, but I say to myself: "I'm putting on my code review hat". I do the same with QA.
Then it's important to limit yourself to that mindset. You're either the reviewer or the reviewee, you can't be both at once. So as a reviewer, I take objective notes to share with the reviewee. I don't change the code while I'm reviewing it, that's not something a reviewer should do.
The formality feels a little absurd at times, but I find when working solo that I'm often pulled in a lot of directions. So I may not necessarily close the review loop before something else comes up - that formality (and really, I'm talking rough notes in a wiki tool), is useful for making sure the review gets done. Likewise with my QA hat on, I add tickets for bugs before I fix them.
The Personal Software Process technique for reviews might be useful, although it relies on having historical data about your work and quality of products.
You start with historical data about your work products, specifically the number and types of defects. There are various methods of classifying defects, such as this one from a PSP course. You can develop your own, but the idea is that you need to be able to tell what mistakes you are making along the way.
Once you know what mistakes you are making, you can develop a checklist that you can use during a review. This checklist would cover the top mistakes that you are making that you think can best be caught in a review (as opposed to using some other tool). Every time you review a work product, use the checklist and look for those mistakes or errors, document them, and fix them. Periodically revise this checklist from time to time to make sure you are focusing on real, relevant problems in your code.
I would also recommend using tool support when it makes sense. Static analysis tools can help find some defects, and some even support style checking to enforce consistency and good code style. Using an IDE with code completion and syntax highlighting can also help you prevent or detect some problems before you click "build". Unit tests can cover logic problems. And if your project is sufficiently large or complex, continuous integration can combine all of these into a regularly-run process and produce nice reports for you.
It seems the common sentiment is that self-review is not effective. I disagree, and I think self-review can catch a lot of issues if done thoroughly.
Here are tips from my few years of experience:
Just an FYI - these guidelines were part of recommendations in Oracle a few years ago when I was working there, where the aim was to catch bugs "upstream" before the code went into testing. It helped a lot, although it was considered boring job by a lot of developers.
Working solo means that unless you trust complete strangers to review code on your behalf, that you will need to look at the way you write your software in order to maintain code quality.
First and foremost, you should have a means to ensure that your code is matching requirements, and second that your code will be relatively easy to change if you decide later that you got something wrong. My suggestion would be to apply a Behaviour Driven Development approach for the following reasons:
So the idea here, is that your continuous refactoring of code even after you get your tests to pass, means that you are effectively reviewing your own code and using your unit tests as the "extra pair of eyes" which make sure your code doesn't stray from the requirements that are encoded in the tests. Also, high test coverage based around requirements ensures you will be able to change your code in the future without failing the requirements.
The real issue for you will be whether or not you're able to spot potential issues in your code that will indicate a need to refactor. There are several profiling tools on the market that can help you with this, as well as several other tools which are concerned with code quality metrics. These can often tell you many things that code reviews can miss, and are a must when developing projects on your own. In reality however, experience is the key, and once you are in the habit of being merciless in your refactoring, you will likely become much more critical of your own code. If you haven't already, I'd suggest reading Martin Fowler's Refactoring book as a starting point, and looking for a good BDD API that you feel will work for you in whichever language you have chosen to work with.
Whenever I've been in the same situation as yourself, I've tried to solve the problem of "being too close to the code to objectively examine it" by using code review / metric tools. It goes without saying that a tool cannot give the same value as an experienced reviewer, but you can still use them to pinpoint areas of bad design.
One tool that I've found fairly useful in this regard was SourceMonitor. It's a bit simplistic, but it gives a good mid-level opinion of your code, such as the number of methods in a class, and the complexity of each method. I've always felt that this type of information was as important (if not more important than) the enforcement of coding styles via tools like StyleCop, etc (which are important, but are often not the source of the largest problems). Use these tools with the usual disclaimers: know when to break a rule of thumb, and something that is all green in a code metric tool isn't automatically of good quality.
I can't tell you the number of times I have been explaining something to a code reviewer and the lightbulb in my head turns on and says, "Hey wait a minute." So I often find my own mistakes in the code review that the other person didn't see. So you could try that, just start explaining the code as if there was a person sitting next to you who was trying to understand what you did and why.
Another thing that I find frequently in code reviews is that the developer did not actually follow the requirement. So comparing your code and what it does the the actual requirement is a good check.
We frequently do things like SSIS packages that have similar structural needs - for code reviews I developed a checklist of things to check (is the configuration correct, is logging set up, does it use the metadata database, are the files in the standard location, etc.). You might have some things that would be handy to check every time in a code review as well. Sit down and think about what you would put on a checklist of things you want to make sure to check in your code review (First item, make sure the requirement is met, next item might have something to do with trapping and logging errors). As you make mistakes and correct them, you may add other items to the list (say something like, do I move to the next record in a loop or am I going to endlessly repeat the same first item - it only take one endless loop to teach you to look for that!). This is mostly to keep you from forgetting to do some things that should be done.
Give it 3 months, then go back and look at your code. I promise you, if you can't find something wrong with it (or question who wrote this junk!) you are a better man than I!
I usually print out all my code and sit down in a quiet environment and read through it, I find a lot of typos, issues, things to refactor, cleanup by doing that. It's a good self-check that I think everyone should do.
Back in college I was a writing tutor. It has certainly given me some perspectives on coding that I think many developers would never have thought of. One of the most important is to read your code aloud. It doesn't sound like much, but I will give a perfect example that I think everyone can relate to.
Have you ever written an email or a paper, reread multiple times to make sure its correct, then sent it, only to find that you have a glaring spelling error, typo or grammatical error? I just did this yesterday when I asked a client to press the shit key instead of the shift key. When you read in your head - you see what you want to see.
This is a shortcut for the 'just wait a day or a week or a month' suggestions others have made. If you read it aloud you catch the same things. I don't know why it is so effective, but after sitting with hundreds of students and having them read aloud, all I can say is that it works.
Most of the people tend to consider their code as their own babies and feed them with ego to rather than reality. Just like any other code reviews, review it as you're seeing someone else's code. Completely forget that you've wrote something. Review each line of the code. A check list would helpful for being aesthetics about reviewing own code. Automated tools for code review can help to some extend. I have used some tools like klocwork (commercial software), This is quite useful while you're working in large projects and several developers are working for it. Always focus on defect detection rather than correction.
But a best practice would be, review yourself and later involve at least two other people for review with distinguished roles.
Consider doing a Fagan inspection by yourself - you'll have to adapt the process because you're by yourself, but you should be able to get quite a bit of value out of it. The trick is going to be to find the right "ruleset" to evaluate your code against as a solo dev, and then having the discipline to ask those questions in a critical, analytical, merciless frame of mind each time. I suspect you may want to brainstorm your own 4-5 crucial questions to start with, and then evolving it over time. Some people are against formal inspections because they seem to be so time-intensive... before you decide that they're too expensive, bear in mind all the statistical evidence that doing inspections properly actually reduce project time. Here's a Wikipedia link that you can start further research with:
There have been a few books too, e.g. Google for "Software Inspection Process" by Strauss and Ebenau.
Another option is to pay someone to inspect an important project - or perhaps pay them occasionally to do inspections of all your code. This guy's pretty good, we've flown him out a number of times to train our newer devs:
Apart from all the recommendations for code review, you can use the tools like PMD and findBug to do first level of sanity for your code.
This has not actually been placed in an answer yet (but has been added as a comment to an existing answer)
Review your code after a good nights sleep, e.g. start the day by reviewing the code that you wrote the previous day.
This will of course not give you the collective experience of a team, but it will give let you review the code from a new perspective.
For instance, if you left a piece of code with a nasty hack, you might not be too inclined to fix it up, if you review your code immediately after. After all, when you start reviewing your code, you already know, and have accepted, the presence of this hack. But if you have had a good nights sleep you are probably more motivated to find a better solution.
When we sleep, the brain doesn't actually stop working on the problems that we have, so you might actually come up with a solution there, though those solutions may sometimes present themselves in odd ways.

5 Famous Things You Won't Believe Were Invented in Dreams
#2. A Scientist Dreams of Snakes, Discovers Benzene
Ryan McVay/Photodisc/Getty Images/Jupiterimages/Photos.com/Getty Images
You probably don't take too much time out of your day to stop and think about how important the chemical benzene is to your life, but it did revolutionize the production of things like cars, rubber, fuel, leather clothing, and other items that Fonzie couldn't do without. Benzene also served as a primary component of explosives during World War I. It's used for everything, is what we're saying, so figuring out how to make it was kind of a big deal.
"We tried replacing it with meth, but that just barely worked."
That brings us to Friedrich August Kekule von Stradonitz, who in the mid-1800s was the closest thing that science had to a rock star. Some would attribute this to his ridiculously pretentious-sounding name, while others would probably point to his discovery of the founding principles of chemical structure, a discovery that was very much the "Stairway to Heaven" of its day.
Seen here in a rare moment of not banging science groupies and snorting science cocaine.
Kekule was looking for his next big challenge: For several years, scientists had been trying to crack the molecular structure of benzene because, again, they were pretty sure it could change the world. However, every configuration of molecules that they tried didn't work for a variety of science reasons, a problem that Kekule soon ran into during his own experiments. That is, until he had help from a dream about motherfucking snakes.
Exhausted from having every avenue of inquiry ironically hampered by the laws of chemical structure that he had invented years earlier, Kekule decided to have himself a fireside nap. Once asleep, he had a dream in which he was surrounded by snakes that formed themselves into hexagons, which he realized upon waking was the shape of the benzene molecule he was trying desperately to crack.
Wait, dreams about being surrounded by snakes? Meth was definitely involved in this.
Legend has it that after Kekule woke, he worked through the night to successfully recreate what he'd witnessed, presumably spending the whole time trying to tie a bunch of garden snakes together. Or maybe he just didn't want to fall asleep and have more snake nightmares. Either way, it worked.
#1. Descartes' Crazy Dream Creates the Scientific Method
Hemera Technologies / AbleStock.com / Thinkstock / Comstock / Getty Images
You hopefully know the name Rene Descartes, but maybe don't remember exactly what he's responsible for. The Cartesian coordinate system you learned in school (and likely never used again) is named after him, and he's the guy who said "I think, therefore, I am." But he's also credited with the formulation of the scientific method. At a time when scientific inquiry was best described as "burn anyone who tries to prove you wrong," Descartes found a better way, one that relied on reason instead of guesswork and threats. This would be one of the big reasons modern civilization exists.
"... and after we invent air conditioning and Xboxes, we can always go back to burning people."
What's more, Descartes recounted that he thought the whole thing up after a series of wack-ass dreams (he didn't use the phrase "wack-ass," but he might have used the 17th century equivalent). In the dreams, he found himself caught inside a vicious whirlwind. And, if that wasn't bad enough, he was also being pursued by a group of ghosts. And he was having a wicked craving for exotic types of melon (we assume he went to bed while hungry for melon).
Descartes had to wait in a ghost-filled melon-craving purgatory until the winds died down and he was taken into a room that kept trying to set him on fire with red-hot sparks and deafen him with near-constant thunderclaps. Somehow, he escaped this torture den and found himself inside a peaceful, still room with only a book for company (this is still in the dream, mind you). Descartes opened the book and read a single line: "Quod vitae sectabor iter" ("What path shall I take in life?"). Then a man appeared next to him and spoke "Est et non" ("Yes and no"). The man and the book then disappeared, leaving Descartes to think about how utterly unhelpful that answer was.
Thinkstock/Comstock/Getty Images
"Sorry, but death turns you into kind of a dooooouche ..."
But Descartes believed that this dream had been communicated to him by God himself, and what was more, he knew what it meant: that he was to try to reinvent the way humans think about the universe. To that end, he went on a pilgrimage and dedicated the rest of his life to figuring out the principles of science. We never found out if he ever got that melon.

Is there any web resource that talk about the history and evolution of military uniforms?
For example, development, history and evolution of uniforms of various Muslim, European, Asian, Indian empires.
I've visted this site many a times, very interesting. Should provide what your looking for
There probably isn't any single web site that will give you examples of military uniforms throughout the world and throughout time. You would have better luck searching by specific countries. To help with this, I have found a couple of links that focus on US and British uniforms. Each has pictures with many different uniform styles throughout time as well as information about some of the uniforms.

Sorry for the lousy phone picture, but I want to share that nineteenth century French table that I fell in love with in Baltimore a couple of weeks ago. I'm ninety percent certain that we don't have a shot at the house that I'd like to buy it for, though we did get a call from the Realtors the other day asking if we'd be willing to review another counter offer (over a month after our original negotiations broke down). They're still a lot higher than I'm willing to commit to, so the likelihood of us moving forward is slim, and sadly this table is probably not in the cards.
But that doesn't change how much I love it.
I'd put it in the long, narrow sitting room and and tear down the wall in the current dining room, doubling the size of the kitchen. It would take quite a bit of work (not really, just a some demolishing, reconfiguring, refinishing, floors and cabinetry), but the sitting room faces the lake and I can imagine having dinner parties and cozy holidays overlooking the water. That table would work beautifully.
In other news, Andrew and I have been outdoors working out a lot lately. Mostly running on that beach and kicking around the soccer ball at the park and long neighborhood walks with warm tea. It's been rainy and in the high seventies, the best weather for a nauseous overheated pregnant lady, and it's one of the only times of the day when I don't feel like my stomach is being beaten with fourteen golf clubs and a Vegas style hangover.
Which reminds me, we had another ultrasound. A little preview, if you will.
The doctor said, "It's, uh, really wiggling in there," and I looked and was all, "IS IT NORMAL FOR OUR FETUS TO BE BREAKDANCING?"
Apparently, it is.
But I like breakdancers and I love babies, so I'm rolling with it for now.

How can I tell someone that I was just making the conversation long for fun? I am looking for some American idiom to express it.
Sign up

If you are pretending not to understand or misunderstand for a little fun at the expense of the other person that would be Teasing.
If you are just talking to someone with mindless chatter that is often refered to as Babbling.
If you are just talking about things that interest one or both of you then it is often referred to as Chitchat.
If it is a mutual session of playful verbal jabs at each other it can be referred to as Banter
And talking with a member of the preferred sex, for fun is often called Flirting.
I would say that one is "drawing out" a conversation. That certainly has a meaning of "prolonging," and since it is voluntary, the implication it is at the pleasure of the actor.
Another word I would use to describe this phenomenon is "lingering."
You could say I/we were just shooting the breeze or I/we were just chewing the fat.
These are idioms that imply an idle conversation which has no purpose other than entertainment or occupying time.
I could have been more succinct, but I wanted a prolix conversation for fun.
Huh, good question. If you're looking for a response to a question like "Why is this conversation so long," witty options may include "It's the journey, not the destination," "If not this conversation, then which?" or "Good things come to those who wait." something playful/humorous should render the guy into a more docile state.
I would call it, "spinning out" the conversation; or in the past tense, "The conversation was drawn out" works better
If you're referring to a narrative joke, it's known as a Shaggy Dog Story. You can find concrete media examples of a Shaggy Dog Story here.

Prince Saud holds press conference to discuss GCC agenda
November 24, 2011
The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) member states have no expansionist aims or desire to interfere in the internal affairs of other states, but they are prepared to defend themselves from terrorism and foreign plots, said Foreign Minister Prince Saud Al-Faisal. Speaking at a joint press conference with GCC Secretary General Dr. Abdullatif -Zayani following a GCC Ministerial Council meeting held in Riyadh yesterday, Prince Saud stressed the importance of cooperation in the face of a rapidly changing world. He stated that the GCC Ministerial Council is taking the initiative to prevent further civil conflicts that could lead to more Arab bloodshed. "We have already witnessed hours ago the singing of a GCC sponsored-accord to end the crisis in Yemen," he stated, expressing hope that it will "put an end to the strife and take Yemen back to its previous status as the cradle of civilizations."
Asked about efforts to end the Syrian crisis, Prince Saud said that an Arab initiative to deal with the conflict has been put forward for Syria to accept. While the Syrian government accepted it at first, he explained, it later attempted to alter the entire framework. Urging Syria to accept the Arab League plan, he warned that prolonged bloodshed could lead to the internationalization of the crisis. The Foreign Minister also urged Saudi citizens to leave Syria or to postpone their travel plans to that country.
Regarding the Iranian plot to assassinate the Saudi Ambassador to the United States, Prince Saud stressed that the threat was not only directed against the Kingdom, but also against international law and diplomatic relations themselves. Noting that Iran has a history of breaching foreign embassies, he urged the international community to take concrete measures to prevent further incidents.
Answering a question on consultations with Jordan and Morocco on GCC membership, Prince Saud said that gradual steps are being taken on the road towards full membership. Noting the problems brought about by the rapid expansion of the European Union (EU), he insisted that the GCC does not want to repeat those mistakes.
On Bahrain, Prince Saud reported that the GCC Council reviewed the report released by an independent inquiry tasked with investigating the country's unrest earlier this year. He praised the Bahraini leadership for its transparency and sincerity and expressed satisfaction with the developments.
Finally, Prince Saud said that once Libya has formed a new government, the GCC countries will normalize relations and exchange ambassadors with their fellow Arab nation.

I understand that backport repository sometimes contains the newer versions of Softwares (major upgrades) and which might be included in the next Ubuntu release. But not all of the softwares aren't backported to the previous release even if it is an LTS.
I don't really fully understand the reason behind this policy. Does this measn the next release (development version) is more important than an LTS release? Or I have missed something?

Geneseo faculty member and composer Glenn McClure has transformed abolitionist writings into choral works being performed in multiple states through May. 18.
GENESEO, N.Y. - The choral performance series "Emancipation Again" celebrating the 150th anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation is following the path of the Underground Railroad with concerts in five cities stretching from Alabama to New York.
Series composer Glenn McClure, a faculty member at the State University of New York at Geneseo and Eastman School of Music, has transformed a series of foundational American documents and writings on abolition into a global artistic vision through the choral works.
"This anniversary provides a unique platform to ask ourselves what emancipation means today," said McClure. "Singing these texts allows them to resonate deep within our minds and bodies and reminds us of how far we have come in the struggle for universal freedom, and how far we still need to go."
The series started in Birmingham, Ala., where the University of Alabama at Birmingham Choir, Virginia Wesleyan University Choir and Alabama State High School Honor Choir performed the world premiere of McClure's "Voices of Freedom." The two university choirs that performed in Birmingham presented the Virginia premiere of "Voices of Freedom" April 8 in Virginia Beach.
In the midst of the "Emancipation Again" series was a performance April 5 at Lincoln Center's Avery Fisher Hall of McClure's internationally acclaimed "Kyrie" from his world music oratorio "St. Francis in the Americas: A Caribbean Mass." The work has also enjoyed multiple performances at Carnegie Hall and around the world.
The emancipation series proceeds to SUNY Geneseo April 21 where the Geneseo Spectrum Women's Choir and the Concentus Women's Choir will perform the world premiere of McClure's "Beatrice in Paradise" at 3 p.m. in the college's Wadsworth Auditorium.
On May 11 at the John Brown Farm historical site in Saranac Lake, N.Y., the Northern Lights Choir will perform the world premiere of McClure's "Voices of Timbuctoo."
The series ends in Rochester, N.Y., the home of Frederick Douglass, when the Rochester Oratorio Society will perform the world premiere of McClure's "The Emancipation Oratorio" May 18. The performance begins at 7:30 p.m. in the Hochstein Performance Hall.
McClure is a two-time recipient of the prestigious Continental Harmony Commission by the American Composers Forum. These commissions, like many of his musical compositions, were born out of community initiatives and collaborations. He often works with civic, religious, and non-profit groups to mold and shape his music into genuine expressions of the goals, interests and hopes of the communities from which they emerge.
He is a particularly passionate advocate for the role of the arts in K-12 education. He was awarded a national fellowship with VSA, a Washington, D.C.-based affiliate of the Kennedy Center that engages children and adults with disabilities with the arts. His award-winning curriculum design work has brought teachers of the arts together with teachers of many other disciplines to leverage arts-based learning for both general education and special-needs children.
One of his recent projects is focused on bringing students in the United States together with students in West Africa and Europe in collaborative, online education projects that use arts activities to animate academic learning. His project "Retelling the Story" brings students in the United States, the United Kingdom and Ghana together to transform the former triangle of slavery and bondage into a triangle of learning and creativity.

I've heard that breakfast is the first meal of the day, but I have also heard it is a meal in the morning. Lunch I understand to be the meal that takes place between eleven and one. Assuming I do not eat anything until eleven, when I finally eat, is it considered breakfast because it is the first meal of the day, or is it lunch because it takes place during lunch's time slot?
Sign up

It is a combination of time slot and sequence. The main meal of the day is dinner, which can be eaten at midday or evening, depending on circumstances.
dinner, n. 'The chief meal of the day, eaten originally, and still by the majority of people, about the middle of the day (cf. German Mittagsessen), but now, by the professional and fashionable classes, usually in the evening'
If dinner is in the evening, the midday meal becomes lunch, though traditionally it could be at anytime. The defining characteristic being that it was not the main meal.
If dinner is midday, the evening meal can be lunch, or tea if it a very light (possibly uncooked) meal. The concept with 'tea' is that the food is an accompaniment for the cup of tea.
There are regional variations though. Australians seem to see tea as quite a heavy meal in the evening, and I have been told that Jamaicans refer l the first meal of day as tea.
This is really regional and has changed during the ages. For example, the midday meal was always called "dinner" in the farming area I grew up in (sometimes you will still hear this, though it's dying out now), and the evening meal was called supper.
Then there's the Hobbit dining plan - breakfast, second breakfast, elevenses...
I don't think either is definitive. If I wake up jetlagged at 7pm, I can have breakfast cereal, in which case I'd say I'm having breakfast; or I can whatever everyone else is eating, in which case I'd say I'm having dinner. In both cases, the nature of the food consumed seems to determine what you call the meal (breakfasty things make it a breakfast, dinnery things make it a dinner). That said, the nature of the food also isn't decisive, as you can have breakfast cereal for dinner (as a friend of mine, growing up in a house without much food, was sometimes forced to do).
If you ever worked night shift or rotating shift you will realize that breakfast can happen anytime. You get up, you eat breakfast, you go to work, partway through your shift you eat lunch, then you go home, and finish with dinner.
The time of day is immaterial in this case.
I have known coworkers who start work at 04:00 so they each lunch at 08:00, before the last of the "day shift workers" have arrived.

The question is, "Consider the type of clothes dryer (gas or electric) purchased by each of five different customers at a certain store. (a).If the probability that at most one of these purchases an electric dryer is .428, what is the probability that at least two purchase an electric dryer? (b).If P(all five purchase gas)=.116 and P(all five purchase electric)=.005, what is the probability that at least one of each type is purchased?
I am not certain how to answer either question. For (a), we know that P(1 purchases electric)=.428, but does this allow us to infer anything about P(4 purchasing gas)=? Also, would knowing the complement of "1 purchases electric" help at all? What would the complement be? Would it be that no one purchases an electric dryer?

In Non-vanishing of L-series of modular forms (easy case?) it was answered that for a cuspidal newform $f$ of weight strictly greater than 2, then $L(f,1)$ is non-zero. (Here the $L$-series is normalized so that the center of the critical strip is given by $s=k/2$.) In particular, for such modular forms, their associated $p$-adic $L$-functions are non-zero. As far as I know the non-vanishing of $p$-adic $L$-functions in the weight 2 case is a highly non-trivial result and relies upon a non-vanishing theorem of Rohrlich on twisted $L$-values. Further, from the non-vanishing of the $p$-adic $L$-function, one can deduce that $L(f,\chi,j)$ is non-zero for all but finitely many pairs $(\chi,j)$ where $\chi$ is a Dirichlet character of $p$-power conductor and $j$ is an integer between $1$ and $k-1$, as long as $p$ is an ordinary prime for $f$.
My questions:
1) Is there a direct argument to prove the non-vanishing of $L(f,\chi,j)$ for all but finitely many $\chi$ and $j$ in the ordinary and weight greater than 2 case (which doesn't use $p$-adic $L$-functions).
2) Is this result known in the non-ordinary case?

EDIT: I was asking help on how to remove a broken plunger knob but it was loose enough for me to back it out with a screwdriver. Now all I need is to order a new plunger knob, plus a spare.

Last edited by Phil; 12-24-2012 at 07:28 AM. Reason: Fixed it
Hi Phil,
This is the first time I get to know about such a problem.
I am sure Bill and Nick will read this. Normally you get a set of plunger knobs for your rotator. Just send a mail to Bill with your address and I am sure you will soon get a replacement for nothing.
BTW: Do not fixe these knobs with high pressure. Just adapt them with the pressure that is needed to move to the next click stop smoothly. So open up till you do not get a new click stop, screw inside till you get a good feeling to fix the rotator for the next click stop. You have to able to click to the next detend step with a smooth motion.
Feel free to ask.

Hi Heinz,
The tripod fell over, without the camera, and the impact of it landing on the plunger knob caused it to break. Not my super human grip on the knob.
Two more knobs have been ordered with next day shipping. Why didn't I break this last week when they NN was open??? Even with next day shipping they won't get here until Friday. I was planning on experimenting with high resolution 360s this week and it's not fun shooting multirow images without click stops! I have a local friend with a NN5 that I could borrow but he's in AZ this week. I guess this is a good week to finish updating my website.
Merry Christmas!
Hi Phil,
Do you need a double detend plunger setting for your needs? This is Murphy's law, when something goes wrong the next thing will happens as well. May be you can take off the short plunger on cord to fulfill your needs.
Would not help you to send you a knob from europe. Just the wrong time to break a knob. Sending it with emergency will cost you a fortune.
But may be there is a NN friend in texas to borrow you a knob set?? Come on guys!! That's what the forum stands for!!
I keep my fingers crossed for you,
Merry Christmas for you as well.
Nice speaking with you on the phone just now. You should get your knobs, camera plate (CP-2) and rotator plugs tomorrow and I through in free gift that might help take the sting out of those shipping costs.
Thank you for being a valued Nodal Ninja customer.
Happy Holidays
Wow Bill,
I once again I like to state that there are not many companies over the world with such a service like Nodal Ninja Fanotec. Besides very good products this forms the golden basis for Nodal Ninja Customers.
Happy Holidays,
Thanks for the quick turn around on the parts. The extras that you added are a nice Christmas gift too. Time to shoot!

Many people come to the area for one reason only – the incredible shelling. The Beaches of Fort Myers & Sanibel produces spectacular specimens because the currents bring shells from the Caribbean to local shores. The wide continental shelf provides a gently sloping incline that allows many shells to arrive unscathed. And warm Gulf waters provide ample opportunity for the creatures to reproduce.You'll find some of the most sought-after shells, such as the crown conch, in the sound, where the different salinity levels mean the mollusk population differs from that found in the Gulf. But, cautions Anne Joffe, owner of She Sells Sea Shells and head of the Sanibel Shell Fair and Show, those who come looking for a particular shell often find everything but that shell. "I always tell people, 'Don't close your mind – be open to finding everything.'"Charter Shelling TripsFor the serious shell collector, consider taking a private charter shelling cruise. There are dozens of shelling guides who can help you find the perfect shell on The Beaches of Fort Myers & Sanibel. Captain Brian Holaway has been helping folks find the best shelling spots for 20 years.
Every day on the water creates new shelling experiences because of the change in tide or shoreline, Holaway said. He takes great pride in leading both serious and novice shell collectors to remote beaches or flats in search of that one particular shell. Holaway, a certified Florida Master Naturalist, provides information on the wildlife, plants and rich history of the area.
Many experienced shell collectors are often searching for shells to add to their collections. Most can expect to find lettered olives, lightning whelks, Florida fighting conchs, baby's ears, worm shells, nauticas, scallops, coquinas and other bivalves. One of the rarest finds – and the shell that keeps many returning - is the brown-speckled Junonia.
The ride to the shore is also full of surprises. Shell enthusiasts watch dolphins swim, enjoy a sunset or capture an osprey diving for dinner.
Step carefully. Under your feet could be the ultimate souvenir. As many as 400 varieties of shells lie in the shallows or wash-up on The Beaches of Fort Myers & Sanibel daily, but these 10 represent the crown jewel of shell collecting. Download the online brochure!
The best shelling is found on the beaches of Sanibel and Captiva islands. The islands rank tops in the world for shelling because of their unique geography. The east-west torque of Sanibel's south end acts like a shovel scooping up all the seashells that the Gulf imports from the Caribbean and other southern seas. Click here to see!
We owe everything to the warm Gulf waters that surround us. The soft, white sand beaches to play on, the millions of shells to find, or the days spent kayaking, boating or fishing – none of which would be possible without it. The water connects us to nature, and with each new discovery, to each other. Click here to view other water activities!

Children's Health
Kids With Gender Noncomformity at Increased Risk for Abuse
Feb. 20, 2012 -- Boys won't always "act" like boys, and girls won't always "act" like girls. Some boys may choose dolls over tools, and some girls prefer cars, trucks, and football to Barbie dolls and princesses.
Unfortunately, kids who tend to make choices that are not considered typical for their gender are at higher risk of being abused by their parents or other family members, and are at risk for developing post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
This is the main finding of a study that will appear in the March 2012 issue of Pediatrics.
An anxiety disorder that develops after witnessing or surviving a traumatic event, such as physical or sexual abuse, PTSD symptoms may include vivid flashbacks, edginess, and sleeping problems. PTSD has been linked to risky behaviors such as unprotected sex, substance abuse, and physical symptoms such as chronic pain.
"We know that kids who are gender-nonconforming do get bullied more, but this paper looked at abuse by parents or other adults, including sexual abuse," says study author Andrea Roberts. She is a research associate in the department of society, human development, and health at the Harvard School of Public Health in Boston.
Gender Expression
Exactly why these kids are at increased risk for abuse and PTSD is not fully understood.
"Parents may be uncomfortable with their child's gender expression and may think that parenting can change behaviors, so they may become harsher," she says. "Some parents think kids who are non-conforming will grow up to be a gay or lesbian, and if they are not comfortable with this, they may think they can change a kid's future."
"The common perception that they are or will be homosexual is not accurate ... most are not," Roberts tells WebMD.
Her advice is clear: "Accept your children and let go of how you thought things were going to be," she says.
In the study, the researchers polled 9,000 young adults who took part in the Growing Up Today study in 1996. They were asked to recall their childhood experiences. Questions were about favorite toys and games, roles they took while playing, media characters they admired, and whether they felt feminine or masculine.

Either the following is a really stupid question or it is a really really stupid question, but here goes:
Does there exist a classification of $\ell$-adic 2-dimensional representations of $\mathrm{Gal}(\bar{\mathbb{Q}}_p/\mathbb{Q}_p)$, where $\ell\neq p$?
I did a quick search of the internet that came up rather empty.
What about the subtler case of $\ell=p$?

Essentially, I'd love to be able to define a variable as one thing unless that thing doesn't exist. I swear that somewhere I saw a shorthand conditional that looked something like this:
$var=$_GET["var"] || "default";
But I can't find any documentation to do this right, and honestly it might have been JS or ASP or something where I saw it.
I understand that all that should be happening in the above code is just to check if either statement returns true. But I thought I saw someone do something that essentially defined a default if the first failed. Is this something anyone knows about and can help me? Am I crazy? It just seems redundant to say:
$var=($_GET["var"]) ? $_GET["var"] : "default";
or especially redundant to say:
if ($_GET["var"]) { $var=$_GET["var"]; } else { $var="default"; }
