Talk about confusing.
Yes, I agree it is a bit confusing. After looking at the CVS site it looks like the coke products are on sale for 4 for $10. That makes them $2.50 each. All the extra details seem to be about CVSCash. If you spend $30 or more you get a CVSCash card valued at $10. So if you were to buy 12 cases of coke for $30 in 1 transaction, you would then receive 1 CVSCash Card. To make the real savings you would need to complete 4 transactions. The 1st 3 transactions would each be to buy 12 cases of coke. You would then again purchase the 12 cases of coke but use the $30 worth of CVSCash. I'm sure there are taxes that differ from place to place, but in summary you could purchase 48 cases of coke for about $90 or $1.88 per case or $0.16 per can. That's a lot of coke to drink before it expires.
Sorry i made a mistake in haste if you het the $10 cash card. You can NET 144 CANS FOR ONLY $20 plus tax and crv
I still don't understand, no matter how cheap this is; why would any one keep buying the worst Coca-Cola with horridly tasting HFCS? I haven't forgotten the taste of the original Coca-Cola with real sugar (thank goodness people are re-importing those from Mexico...yes, Mexico).
And why do we allow Coca Cola to short change us here in the land it was invented?!
@lll0228: I agree with you. I buy my coke at Costco, imported from Mexico, made with pure cane sugar.
Diabetes here I come!
Are you charged for can deposits on each?
Also, I can't believe people still drink pure sugar. HFCS aside... freaking SUGAR.
Coke Zero tastes just as good, and it has no sugar. That's what I will be getting with this deal.
OR I can take myrewards coca cola coupons for twelve packs and get them free anywhere ^_^ #WINNING
After I click the link I don't see anything about coke.
I'm not too familiar with how cvs does sales, is there no coupon needed?
Welcome home kidney disease...
@dragonsabur: Check out the link at the top of the page to the Weekly Ad, it's on the first page. No coupon required, it should ring up automatically as long as you use a CVS ExtraCare card. Check your receipt though, and if you spend $30 (on qualifying items) make sure you get your $10 bonus card, sometimes their system is a little glitchy when it comes to sales...when I tried it didn't include some items that the sales add listed, so they had to manually print a $10 certificate.
A somewhat related note: Dr. Pepper is/isn't included with this deal. Depending on the store, they like to say it is a Pepsi product until Pepsi goes on sale; and then they turn around and say Dr. P is a Coke product. Hope this helps those going in to buy Dr. Pepper and coming out disappointed (I did).
@89titanium: I very strongly prefer sugar over artificial sweeteners, for both taste and safety reasons. I'd imagine a lot of other people have the same preference, for one or both of those reasons.
But then again, I only drink soda about once every couple of months - I recognize that in terms of health, a daily soda drinker would probably be better off taking any potential risks of artificial sweeteners over the sugar hit. The taste issue still stands, but I hear you get used to it. Still, better to stick to water in my opinion.
(Plus, on the topic of coke zero, I have a problem with coca-cola using Sodium Cyclamate as a artificial sweetener in European and South American versions even though it is banned in the US by the FDA. In Venezuela, they not only used it in above legal amounts but also neglected to tell the Ministry of Health that it had been added. In what I'm sure is a huge coincidence Sodium Cyclamate is cheaper.)
Good price for this area.
Worried about the health issues when drinking soda?
@nangiggles: Or, you can use those to get an even better deal. I used my 4 MCR free coupons on this deal, so I paid $20 to get 16 12-packs-- $1.25 per 12-pack.
The breakdown, for anyone curious:
Buy $30 worth of coke 12 packs (that's 12 12 packs.).
Use 4 free coupons (from My Coke Rewards), bringing total down to $20.
Pay $20, receive 12 12 packs + $10 gift card
Use $10 gift card to buy 4 more 12 packs, for a total of 16 12-packs.
Plus, a huge supply of My Coke Rewards to put in.
You could arguably keep rolling that until you have built a home out of cans. We stocked up for home use and are probably going to go back once more to stock an upcoming family member's wedding.
@jezebelseven: AND CVS just sent me a $5 off $25 coupon so if you also got one, then, well, that's even better. With the previous scenario, that makes it more like 93 cents per 12 pack, if my math brain is working.
It would appear that it's dr pepper freindly [Img][/img]

In English, the word "awkward" can be used to describe a situation that is uncomfortable and embarrassing (but neither word seems to fully describe what "awkward" describes). What is the best translation of this concept in Spanish? If a single word doesn't fully capture the English meaning, what phrase would best describe it?

In Spanish the best translation for awkward is incómodo.
Yes, 'incómodo' can just mean uncomfortable, but also it is used as awkward as in an awkward situation.
Actually, I don't think we have such a precise word as 'awkward' (I've missed it).
As per other answer, "incómodo" is the most commonly used word. But because "incómodo" means in general "uncomfortable", this sense is often made more explicit: "Una situación incómoda", "Un momento incómodo", etc.
Other words are "(momento) embarazoso" (more precise, but less colloquial), or "violento" (which also is ambiguous).
The word "Torpe" has all the flavor and meaning as awkward. And it is used in exactly the same way like "El muchacho es muy torpe" (The boy is awkward) or "Esta en una etapa de torpeza" (His in a awkward stage) as for your sentence "Me siento torpe en esta situacion"

Good looking shoe and a good price. No men's 13 available though.
tanga: for when your item has to be absolutely, positively, without a doubt, be delivered within 2 months.
@belyndag you work very hard getting all the deals that you do. im too lazy to be doing that, would never mean to take anything away from you with a comment, just had more than a few problems with tanga.
@luke975: Not a problem. I don't recall having that problem with Tanga, but thanks for specific feedback. Lots of folks just downvote and say something nasty but won't say WHAT the problem was.
Regarding my posts, it's an addiction. I need help.
actually i upvoted your deal. you took the time to research it.

So to show exactness at Hom$(V'',W)$, I need to show $g$# is injective.
To show exactness at Hom$(V,W)$, I need to show Im(g#) = Ker(f#), which means f# sends all of Hom(V,W) to 0?
I'm unable to see the big picture though the symmetry clearly should mean something. Please help me. Thank you.

As JavaScript's star rose, discontent came from all corners. Some pointed to its numerous little quirks and inconsistencies. Others complained about its lack of classes and inheritance. And a new generation of coders, who had cut their teeth on Ruby and Python, were stymied by its thickets of curly braces, parentheses, and semicolons.

How can I distinguish between them in some simple way?
Sometimes after running or weightlifting it seems that my gut is quite flat. In fact abdominal muscles are visible when I try a posedown. But then when I relax, it seems that I have a big gut.
Do I need some specific exercise to make my abdominal muscles more visible or I must loose fat?

Unanswered: How to Change the getRowClass function on an ExtJS GridPanel viewconfig After Render
I have an Ext.grid.Panel with a function that returns a custom class that is used to color code rows in the grid by overriding the getRowClass function. This works great, but I would like to give the user the option to change the criteria by which the grid is colored. The below example, I am coloring by the "severity" attribute, but I would like to change that to "status", for example. Is there a way I can dynamically change the getRowClass function,or maybe the entire viewconfig on the grid, and have the grid recolor, after the grid has already been rendered?
alarmsGrid = Ext.create('Ext.grid.Panel', { title: 'Netcool Alarms', id: 'Netcool Alarms', columnLines: true, store: alarms_store, loadMask: true, stripeRows: true, viewConfig: { getRowClass: function(record, rowIndex, rowParams, store){ return record.get('severity').toLowerCase(); } },
alarmsGrid.viewConfig.getRowClass = function(record, rowIndex, rowParams, store){ return record.get('status').toLowerCase(); }

I would use a single field and then change the value of that field. Once you do that, the grid will refresh the view and execute the configured getRowClass method.Mitchell Simoens @LikelyMitch

The viewConfig is used to configure the grid's view, which is a separate child component of the grid. The docs for it are here (notice getRowClass):
Once the grid has been instantiated the viewConfig is irrelevant, you need to work with the grid's view directly instead. You can change the function getRowClass on the view but if you just want to change the field it uses then you'd be better off just storing the field name on the view and reading that in from getRowClass:
rowClsField: 'severity', getRowClass: function(record) { return record.get(this.rowClsField).toLowerCase(); }, setRowClsField: function(field) { this.rowClsField = field; this.refresh(); }
To do the update you'd then do something like:
grid.getView().setRowClsField('status');ConsultJS: http://consultjs.com/

I understand how electrons initially move into another's vicinity, but nowhere can I find a fathomable answer to this. Also, does the pairs forming 'a condensate' mean a Bose-Einstein condensate?
They don't really bind, the interaction can be too weak to bind, but the pairs condense anyway. The theory is interesting precisely because the condensation is happening from an interaction too weak to form actual pairs. When the interaction is strong, the pairs can be considered as effective particles, and the theory of superconductivity is different and simpler--- it's a BEC of the pairs.
The standard description is BCS theory, and I'll explain it Bogoliubov's way, which is found in countless places. I'll consider the electron field interacting with a nonrelativistic instantaneous potential. This is not accurate in traditional superconductors already, because the interaction is phononic and retarded, but whatever, the phenomenon doesn't care about this very much.
you have an electron field $\psi(k)$, and the interaction Hamiltonian is
$$ V(k_\mathrm{in}-k_\mathrm{out}) sum_{s} \bar{\psi}^{s_1}_{k_1}\bar{\psi}^{s_2}_{k_2} \psi^{s_3}_{k_3} \psi^{s_4}_{k_4} \delta(\sum k) $$
Where the $\delta$ is multiplied by 3 $2\pi$ factors as always, I assume V is spherical symmetric, and there are two spin fluids which are degenerate in energy. The main assumption, which is justified self-consistently is that the field $\psi^0_{k}\psi^1_{-k}$ has an expectation value. You can see this is self consistent from the fact that if V is negative at $2|k_f|$, this expected value lowers the energy classically.
The exected value of $\psi\psi$ is a type of condensation, but it isn't local condensation because there is no real local bilinear field that it is the exectation value of. In the limit that the coupling is strong, you can make a local field which creates a bound Cooper pair, but this is only linked adiabatically to the BCS picture.
Yes, the cooper pairs form a BEC. See Kardar's Statistical Physics of Particles for a detailed derivation of this. I think Kittel's Thermal Physics might also have some explanation (on an easier level).
For a BEC to form, the bosons should be non-interacting. To good approximation, this is the case for cooper pairs.
The attraction is caused by screening, which means that when two electrons come together, they tend to push away the nearby electrons, which leaves a net positive charge in the area that keeps those two electrons together.

A Brief History of AmericruiseWritten by on November 1, 2000 Rods Across America
Longtime Rod & Custom readers may remember that the magazine spearheaded the first Street Rod Nationals in 1970. For that event, rodders from many areas of the country got together and caravanned to Peoria, Illinois. To the amazement of the R&C staff, 600 rodders showed up at Peoria, which was the largest-ever gathering of street rods at one place until then. Today that turnout is small compared to many national and regional rod shows, but it was a fantastic starting point.
One of the reasons for the 1970 run was to show that street rods can be reliable and dependable. It proved that the fun of owning a street rod was driving it, not just showing it. This "street is neat" philosophy has led to the development of many of the top-quality parts we can buy for our street rods today to make them more dependable than ever. Street is still neat, and that is what inspired Americruise.
A few years ago, the R&C staff decided it would be cool to duplicate that first cruising event and do it annually. We kicked it off with Americruise 1993, which turned out to be an incredible success. In each succeeding year, Americruise has started with as many as 13 different tours from all over the country. The tours were designed to make stops at many of the top street rod shops and companies along the way. Early on, the R&C editors began to travel with separate tours, reporting on the events and cars that caravanned to a central location each year. Then, the weekend following the tours, the actual Americruise event takes place, complete with a huge car show, a variety of entertainment, and manufacturer and vendor displays of all kinds.
The R&C staff is also on hand to photograph each Americruise, and in the process of doing so we find cars for upcoming features. In fact, there are so many nice cars at this event each year that the editors are kept busy all three days and there were still many cars we don't get a chance to shoot.
The daytime activities at Americruise keep participants and spectators alike busy and entertained. However, there are also plenty of things to do in the evening. There may be barbecues, live bands, cruises, contest--the whole gamut of carnival excitement mixed with the world's most fabulous cars.
But instead of reading about the event, take a look at our collection of photos from 1993 to the present. Even better, sign up for this year's tour! For more information, call 800/622-3960 or 323/782-2837.

One of the 1996 tours stopped by on the way to Lincoln, which was again the convergence locale for Americruise.What a cross-section of street rods, customs, and classics! There was certainly something for everyone to get excited about at the 1996 event. The most common road problem was caused by suspensions that were a tad low for the unfamiliar terrain. Fortunately, there was no permanent damage that we're aware of. Evening activities in 1996 centered around dining and cruising "big O" street. Locals said it was a straight 30-mile strip from downtown Lincoln to the other end."Wil Chil" is Vintage Air President Jack Chisenhaul's CB-handle--he kept contact with other members of the tour he led in 1997 with both his CB and cell phone. Much of each tour takes place on freeways or open state roads, but keeping track of everyone is always a challenge.
In 1997, as with all Americruises, the staff photographers liked to snap photos of the brightly colored cars in the sun, but there was plenty of shade available for your lawn chair and cooler.Americruise 1998 took place at Snowmass Village in Roaring Fork Valley near Aspen, Colorado. Yes, it's July, and, yes, that's snow above one of the upper parking lots.Can you see your car? The 1998 Manufacturers' Midway on the baseball field at Snowmass below the golf course was the sight of the show 'n' shine, the Custom Classic Truck Corral, the Under 25 Corral, and the awards ceremony.Colorado Custom hosted a 1998 stop and impressed everyone with its facilities. Here's the company's fresh AirRide Technologies-suspended 1937 Ford sedan leading the way.Talk about beautiful! Here's a great shot of the 1999 Wescott tour (one of 10 individual tours that year) cutting through the Columbia River Gorge in Oregon on the way to the eventual Americruise site at Madison, Wisconsin.Jim and Pat Downs lead their 1999 Tour group through Michigan's upper peninsula, following close to the lake. Run tight and see how many cars we can get in one photo!

An official source said in a statement issued last night that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is following with pain and sorrow the recent disturbances taking place in the brotherly Republic of Egypt and the deaths of many innocent victims there.
"The Government and people of the Kingdom offer their deepest condolences to the families of the victims, the Egyptian people, Government and Military Council. The Kingdom, at the same time, appeals to all its brothers in Egypt for self-restraint, the resort to wisdom, and the preservation of their beloved homeland, which is at the heart of the Arab and Islamic world, cited by Allah in the Holy Qur'an as a model of security, saying, 'Enter ye Egypt (all) in safety, Allah willing.' We pray to Allah Almighty to protect Egypt and its people from any harm."

I'm looking into Scala game development, and wondering if there are any game frameworks oriented towards it, rather than Java.
Java has Slick2D and LWJGL, but they do not take advantage of Scala features.
There isn't much in the way of game specific frameworks/engines. What does exist is largely immature though can help provide a higher level of abstraction for rendering:
I've built an engine directly on top of LWJGL over the past year. In retrospect it seems to have been a good idea. I honestly can't imagine using anything but Scala at this point (though except maybe Rust one day in the far future). I simply couldn't stand to use something as unproductive as Java or C++ again.
Not that it's a great measure of size, but my game including the engine/framework is approx 440 scala classes.
A side note: The game libraries suffer from similar problems to Scala libraries as a whole, especially in their (and in some way Scala's) relative immaturity, they're all written in their own interpretation of how Scala code should be written (something which is very diverse amongst scala libraries).
I do not know what specific features of scala you'd like to see in a game lib. My gut-feel says it is better to use a well known and fully functional java engine than a new scala one. Using java libs out of the box is one of the "specific features" of scala ;-).
A while back, I wrote a small game in Scala using the GTGE. I can really recommend it. The scala source code is on launchpad if you'd like to take a look before using it.

- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). To make the crostini, pour 2 tbsp olive oil over a baking sheet, then gently press the bread into the oil on both sides. Season with salt and pepper. Bake for 10-15 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the oven, and lightly rub each slice with the garlic clove. Set aside on a wire rack to cool.
- Put the pumpkin on a baking sheet, and toss with the olive oil, garlic, lemon zest, and rosemary. Season with salt and pepper, then roast for about 35 minutes until tender and golden. Leave to cool slightly.
- To serve, in a bowl, combine the ricotta, thyme, and a little lemon juice. Spoon a little of the ricotta mixture onto each of the crostini, and top with a chunk of roasted pumpkin, squeezing it a little with your fingers before putting it in place. Arrange on a large serving dish or platter, and serve.
- For a sweet and sour flavor, sprinkle a little good-quality balsamic vinegar over the pumpkin just before roasting.
- Use ordinary fresh thyme leaves if you can't find the lemon-scented variety.

Science and the Reasonable Development of Marcellus Shale Natural Gas Resources in Pennsylvania and New York
A fair amount of controversy concerning the development of natural gas resources in the Marcellus Shale formation has accompanied the return of significant oil and gas exploration and production to Pennsylvania. One need only look at the news headlines and legislative and regulatory dockets to appreciate the diversity of issues and positions on those issues related to the Marcellus Shale region. A growing number of lawsuits and media reports give the impression that Marcellus Shale drilling and production operations – especially the process known as hydraulic fracturing – are indisputably harmful to both the environment and to those who live in the vicinity of the wells. Lawmakers and regulators have introduced myriad measures imposing additional oversight and operational requirements on Marcellus Shale producers. The economic, environmental, and human impact of such measures will be significant – which is exactly why unbiased and informed scientific evaluation of the potential link between Marcellus Shale production activities and environmental and health concerns is essential to appropriate judicial and regulatory decisions. The success of efforts to explore and develop Marcellus Shale natural gas resources requires continued critical and scientific evaluation of information concerning all aspects of the enterprise.

I found this sentence, and it confused me:
Loads may be transferred in one operation from stock pole, production point or delivery vehicle practically to their destination on the building.
I looked it up through Google, where what I found most is pole stock. I know pole stock means lumber used in making poles for vehicles and agricultural implements. But what does stock pole mean?

ingredient information
Researchers at the USDA Human Nutrition Center (HNRCA) have found that blueberries rank #1 in antioxidant activity when compared to 40 other fresh fruits and vegetables. Antioxidants help neutralize harmful by-products of metabolism called "free radicals" that can lead to cancer and other age related diseases. Anthocyanin -- the pigment that makes the blueberries blue -- is thought to be responsible for this major health benefit. In another USDA Human Nutrition Center (HNRCA) lab, neuroscientists discovered that feeding blueberries to laboratory rats slowed age-related loss in their mental capacity, a finding that has important implications for humans. Again, the high antioxidant activity of blueberries probably played a role. A one cup serving of blueberries contains 16% DV of fiber. Blueberries are a source of Vitamins A and C, potassium and folate. Blueberries are very low in fat and sodium.

Adding The NASCAR Look for your carWritten by on October 22, 2003 Do This to Your Street Car, Please
We're often accused of ram-rodding the trends we're interested in rather than following what's really going on. Consider this precisely that occasion.
After a few nights digging through all the vintage NASCAR photography in the HRM archives, we had no choice but to share it with you because it's over-the-top cool. Our agenda? We think it's about time that this look catches on for street cars. It's the same thing we said about '66-'72 SCCA Trans Am racers ("The Trans Am Look," Feb. '02), and while we're hard pressed to say anything bad about those road-course ponycars, they do seem ever so slightly girly in the face of a fullsize NASCAR sedan. The NASCAR look is bigger, badder, and more bare-fisted. It's more big-block (if you don't mind that as an adjective), at least in its prime era.
What's the prime era? We were forced to narrow it down for this story because there was just too much to choose from, so most of our coverage will be in the musclecar days of '64-'72. However, there's a bit on the earlier cars, plus a sidebar on our opinion of how the NASCAR look breaks down year by year through 1987. Suffice it to say that any Stock Car originally raced with an open-face helmet falls to our liking and is prime fodder for a street-going ripoff that could and should also be built to haul serious heinie at the likes of open-track events and open-road races. We've seen plenty of sticker-and-stripe replicas, but that alone won't cut it. Dedicate yourself to the aura, and that includes a raspy exhaust note and a four-speed with a three-foot-long stick. Go ahead and dead-mimic the ancient suspension technology and you'll still have a car that'll shred pure and look brutal doing it. Then make sure to send us photos when you're done.
Five Generations of NASCAR Cool
We studied the cars, the history, and the photos to formulate this fully unofficial guide to the various looks of NASCAR from 1949 to 1987, an ending date picked primarily because NASCAR allowed front-to-rear-drive conversions the following year. You could also cut it off at 1980, the last year of the big, 115-inch wheelbase rule (it would downsized to 110 in 1981).
Strictly Stock: 1949-1954
We love that NASCAR's first race series was called Strictly Stock, and that the first finisher at the very first event in Charlotte, North Carolina, in 1949 was deemed to have cheated. That's the bootleggin' heritage that should guide you as you take your beater postwar sedan, tape up the steering wheel, strap the doors shut with leather belts, letter it up a tad, add some side-exit exhaust, and call it a racer. Use surplus aircraft parts for safety belts. Rollbars weren't even mandated until 1952. Even though the Strictly Stock name was almost instantly dropped (the series was renamed Grand National in 1950), the cars fit the Stock moniker for a scary long time. We only have photos as early as 1956, so these Modified-class cars from Daytona that year will have to serve to give you the impression of the earlier racers.
V-8s Take Over: 1955-1957
Whereas Hudson sixes and the like had a fighting chance against the early Olds V-8s, by this time it was all about the small Chevys and Hemis and Y-blocks. Interestingly, NASCAR ran its Convertible Division from '56 through '59, and while this Ford seems to be readied for the straight-line time trials on the Daytona sand, it would appear to also be an oval-track competitor. They were slower than the hardtops--perhaps the first hint of the need for aerodynamic swoopiness. Duplicate the look by adding a full cage (both rags and sedans had 'em by now), tape the steering wheel, remove the carpet, and add some rubber hood hold-downs. Suspension upgrades could be accomplished with a stick welder, as most cars had two truck shocks per wheel and you'd need to fabricate the mounts.
The Bubbletop Years: 1958-1963
We broke this era down basically due to the rooflines of the cars involved. The General Motors coil-sprung, X-frame cars marked a significant change in 1958, but they didn't have the sleek, Buck Rogers styling of the new-for-'59 models. By this time the racers were guaranteed to have rollcages, doors bolted shut, perhaps fabricated door panels, and the leaf-sprung cars tended to have long rear shackles. The venerable truck-arm suspension, lifted from the '60-'72 Chevy pickup rear suspension and still used in today's Winston Cup cars, debuted during this era under Junior Johnson's '63 Impala. GM bubbles and their equally swoopy Dearborn friends define the look, but freakish square-style Thunderbirds and huge-finned Petty '60 Mopars also competed back in the day. The photo is by Bob D'Olivo from the '60 Daytona 500.
The Musclecar Years: 1964-1972
It's easy to sum up these years with one word: Hemi. The Chevy big-block-precursor "Mystery Motor" preceded the Chrysler by a year, but the Hemi killed all at Daytona 1964, then Chrysler followed it up with the winged cars, and (unfairly to the significant GM and Ford accomplishments) these are remembered as Mopar's years. We've spared you the traditional image of Petty's 43 car of 1964 and instead shown the fuselage bodies at the '71 Miller 500.
The Whale Bodies: 1973-1980
The weird thing is that the biggest, fattest cars that you'd never consider racing today were the very same ones that owned NASCAR for eight seasons: monster T-birds, Montegos, Starsky and Hutch Torinos, and mammoth Dodge Magnums. Any one of these cars would be virtually free to buy today if you were going for the clone look, yet they'd be the most difficult to duplicate since these were pure, doorless race cars by the end of the era. The photo is from the '78 Daytona 500, again by Bob D'Olivo.
The Intermediates: 1981-1987
If you've got a '78-'88 GM G-body (Monte Carlo, Regal, Cutlass, Gran Prix), then this is all about you. In 1981, NASCAR changed the minimum wheelbase requirement from 115 inches to 110 inches, which was an easy cheat-up from the 108-inch 'base of the factory G-bodies. All of a sudden it was intermediates everywhere. The era ended when, in 1988, NASCAR allowed Chevrolet to campaign a front-drive Lumina converted to rear-wheel drive. Gray Baskerville got the shot of the grid at the '82 Daytona 500.
The Body Styles You Didn't Think Of
Want to build a NASCAR clone from whatever's in your driveway? If it's American, you can probably get away with it. Many otherwise popular body styles never got big play in NASCAR--'68-'72 Chevelles, for example--but we found vintage shots of quite a few apparently independent racers who ran what they brang. Check it.
More Photos From This Article View Slideshow
Your reproduction engine compartment for an early car can be virtually bone stock and restored with the exception of some custom brackets for two shocks per wheel, a treatment also found at the rear.If you want to go way back with the NASCAR thing, then go shoebox '50s. It might be tough monetarily to commit to a Tri-Five Chevy, but there wasn't a Bow Tie champ until 1957, anyway. Chrysler ruled from 1954 to 1956, but the '53-'57 Fords are still very affordable and make a good option. Mercurys and Pontiacs are fair game, too, and if you want to go early '50s, Hudsons (1951-1953 champs), Buicks, and Oldsmobiles were all used. This shot is on the beach at Daytona 1957 before it was a 500. Cotton Owens in a Pontiac won the race with the first-ever 100-mph average lap on the sand.The Daytona Superspeedway was first paved in 1959, and overnight the race took on the images we still see today: pit stops, the Goodyear blimp, a helicopter, and grandstands. Note this Sportsman '55 Ford's full-floating rear axle; truck parts were often used for durability.Lower rooflines and sleeker body styles (well, except for those Exner Mopars) defined NASCAR starting in 1959. This shot by Robert Petersen himself is of the '60 Daytona 500. The #22 Pontiac was a Smokey Yunick entry. It was crashed by Fireball Roberts, but then Marvin Panch took the same car and won in 1961.We first noted the inclusion of the rear-window rails on some cars at the 1960 events, but they were commonplace by 1961. Also note an early effort at a quicker-than-stock fuel fill on this '61 Bel Air.This is probably the FE motor in the Vel's Ford/Parnelli Jones entry at the '60 Daytona race. Note how stock it looks, making a clone of this era of NASCAR ride cheap and easy.We were unable to find out exactly what this is, but it was shot at the '62 Daytona 500 and looks a lot like a NASCAR chassis of the day. Note the simple rollcage with odd rear downbars, the steering column mounted to the crossbar, the braced rearend housing, and the exhaust through the frame.Here's the legendary unit, boys--the first Hemi to win a NASCAR race in Petty's car in 1964. Note that cowl induction had been figured out at this point, but the car still has stock inner fenderwells and hood hinges. Check the jelly-jar master cylinder.
We first noticed real aero tricks in 1966 events, including narrowed bumpers, handles removed from the factory-glass windwings, flared fenders, decklid air vents, and folded driprails. As a result, NASCAR first used these body templates for the 1967 season.Another change seemed to creep in with the 1968 cars, and that's the removal of inner fenderwells for the addition of custom tubework. This shot is invaluable to anyone trying to duplicate a Mopar of the era. Note that the stock upper control arm mounts remain, but are supported by tubes. Some cars had OE core supports, others were fabbed. Also note the fabricated upper half of the firewall (no pinch-weld like a stock Mopar) and the heavily trimmed K-member for pan clearance, as dry-sumps were not yet in wide use. This 1968 car still has rubber strut-rod bushings, which were replaced with ball joints on later cars.One of our favorite shapes of early NASCAR is the fastback '68-'69 Torino. Get one. And as a final note, we'll point out that those huge steelies and the cut-out fenderwells are absolutely integral and mandatory to recreating the NASCAR look. We've seen valiant attempts from people unwilling to trim the sheetmetal, but it just doesn't fly. If you learn one thing in your quest for retro stardom, it's this: fear not the Sawzall.

To the editor:
I was struck by the juxtaposition of approaches embodied in two opinion pieces printed in the Dec. 5 Leavenworth Times.
In one, former U.S. representative Lee Hamilton decried the federal slide toward fiscal disaster and pleaded for a more responsible fiscal approach.
The other, provided in Kansas microcosm, pushes us inexorably toward the fiscal cliff. That view scrambles about, finding things to criticize and suggesting that government is the appropriate fix.
Government, of course, is run on our earnings, earnings which are finite, and when used up, will spell an apocalyptic end to expansive government.
In that connection, Rep. Hamilton might wish to reflect on the report that the federal government ran a small surplus during the time that essential elements were shut down.
Perhaps that is a light useful in leading us out of the tunnel of debt?

Considering that it would have been laughed at by the unix/linux people to suggest windows as a internet connected server until the 2000 era, is that argument now laid to rest?
Aside from nix admins who dont want to lose their lucrative admin positions(because certain jobs take ages compared to windows, and vice versa) is there any reason ASIDE FROM COST, that linux is more secure after a professional has setup windows?
Considering the performance of modern hardware, I believe now that the tools and ease of use of windows platform make it an equally viable server platform.
Unless you require Open source technology that are ideally deployed on Linux, I see no reason for people to roll their eyes at windows, or ignore it as a viable platform.
What do you think?

5 Economic Collapses More Ridiculous Than This One
These days, with all the pundits preaching doom and the impending collapse of society into some kind of Mad Max style wasteland, it's easy for us to imagine that the economy is as unhealthy as it's ever been.
But any historian would give you a hard backhanded smack for even saying that out loud. History is full of economic idiocy, and here are five economic collapses that make 2010 feel like the Renaissance.
#5. Tulip Mania
Every Christmas, there's some "hot toy" that has parents standing in line in the wee hours of the morning, getting in fistfights, and paying 10 times retail on eBay--all for something the kid will get bored with a week later. But of course it's not about the kid, it's about the hunt.
The second most dangerous game.
The toy becomes valuable to them only because it is valuable to other people. It's a self-sustaining cycle of irrational stupidity.
But that phenomenon isn't new. In fact, a consumer craze (over flowers, of all things) created the very first recorded economic bubble, almost 400 years ago.
In the 1600s the tulip was still pretty new to the Netherlands, and they quickly became a Beanie Baby-style "must-have" item among people who had too much money to spend.
Tulips! I can't fucking believe it!
Now, as with most plants, tulips have a very specific growing season, so they weren't available to buy year round. But the Dutch wanted assurances right the hell now that they would own a tulip by year's end, so suppliers set up a futures market, which basically meant that in the off-season people could buy tulip IOUs to be exchanged for real tulips when said tulips actually grew.
Fun fact: A "Dutch tulip" is also a very fancy way to roll a joint.
And then people started playing the market and inflating the prices and, well, it was just a matter of time until things got really, really stupid.
What Went Wrong?
At the peak of trading in the early months of 1637, the futures market had gotten so out of hand that even a single tulip bulb had become ridiculously valuable. While no one really agrees just how insane the prices became, it's understood that some bulbs were trading for at least 10 times the annual wage of a skilled craftsman. That's 10 years' salary for one, solitary flower that just goes into the garden and sits there.
Get a job!
Eventually a whole lot of people stopped and said, "What the fuck are we doing?" and the bubble burst, the price of tulips falling back down to sane levels. The downside is that a whole bunch of people had locked themselves into tulip contracts during the height of the craze, and were therefore committed to handing over the family fortune for something that was worth about a buck fifty.
Financial ruin never smelled so sweet.
#4. The Mississippi Bubble
As ridiculous as the tulip thing sounds, at least those were physical objects that existed, and that people weren't throwing their money away on a purely imaginary idea.
Which brings us to France's Mississippi bubble.
In 1715, King Louis XIV of France finally keeled over and died of exhaustion from screwing France's economy for 72 years straight. Louis had also exhausted France's supply of gold via a series of costly wars and the small matter of having built himself a gilded palace that Liberace described as "a bit tacky."
Louis was eccentric to say the least.
By the time he was done, there wasn't enough gold left to sustain the minting of new coins.
A shrewd economist named John Law leapt to the aid of the nation by proposing a new concept he called a "bank", at which people could trade their heavy and primitive gold for colorful and exciting bank notes that were just as valuable, but easier to hide under mattresses and in bras.
What Went Wrong?
Unfortunately, the newly appointed regent of France didn't understand economics worth a damn, specifically the rule that money is supposed to represent things that are, you know, valuable. You can't circulate more money than can actually be exchanged for things of real value. They printed so much money that it represented five times more wealth than France actually had.
It wasn't long before the people became suspicious that they were actually walking around with their pockets full of Monopoly money. John Law knew he had to make a move, so he told everybody about an exciting new investment opportunity: the French colony of Louisiana in the not-yet-United-States.
After all, he said, just think of the piles of gold, precious gems and Mardi Gras beads that were sure to just be littering the Mississippi river. The people could invest their money in the venture, so that not only would the government obtain more concrete wealth, but it could quietly dispose of the ridiculous surplus of paper money and pretend the whole thing never happened.
Of course, it turned out Louisiana was a wretched, inhospitable swamp. Instead of fields of rubies, rivers aflow with diamonds and mountains made of solid gold, all the French found along the Mississippi were alligators, giant rats and a whole lot of gumbo.
It's still pretty much the same, but with more Saints fans.
Unfortunately the people of France had already invested their life savings in Louisiana shares, and were sitting around with big dumb smiles on their faces waiting for the ships to return to port laden with their promised riches.
When word got out that the only gold to be found in Louisiana was inside the mouths of hillbillies, people quickly offloaded their shares for a fraction of the original price, then trampled each other to death to run to the bank to change their paper money back into gold before it ran out and their notes became worthless.
#3. The South Sea Bubble
At around the same time France was getting screwed over, Britain was also feeling the sting of government overspending. They looked at what was happening on the mainland with interest and decided that they would attempt a similar scheme, but haughtily pledged that they were too smart to fall into the same pitfalls that their old enemy had encountered. And they were right. Sadly, they just found different traps to impale their economy on.
Is there anything Mortal Kombat can't illustrate?
It was well known in Europe that, unlike the smelly armpit of North America that was the Louisiana bayou, there really was a shitload of gold to be had further South. There was so much gold there that the Aztecs actually valued feathers more highly. Someone just needed to go over there and trawl through the garbage bins of Tenochtitlan.
Cue the formation of the South Sea Company, which the British government granted exclusive trading rights to the whole of the super rich continent of South America. It came as no surprise that when shares in the company hit the market, they were snatched up in no time by eager speculators.
Rich and poor, everybody opened their wallets until basically the entire GDP of Britain was locked up in the South Sea Company's bank vaults. All they had to do was wait for the gold to come sailing in!
What Went Wrong?
There was of course the small detail that South America was largely owned and controlled by Spain. And when Britain politely asked to send their ships over to retrieve all of that spare garbage-gold, Spain said no.
Or as they say in Spain, "No."
The people of Britain thought for some reason that the King of Spain had recently decided to grant their British BFFs permanent unlimited use of their trading ports, which turned out to be a slight exaggeration. What the King actually said was that the South Sea Company could send over a single ship and then get the hell out. This wasn't secret information, but the masses chose to believe the ridiculous rumor over the documented truth, because it just made so much more sense that Spain would let them have all of the gold they wanted, for free.
M.C. Hammer would utilize similar logic centuries later.
When it eventually became abundantly clear that they had all been cripplingly retarded, shouts of "Buy! Buy!" turned quickly into screams of "Sell this flaming turd now!" and the stock plummeted. Most people couldn't give their shares away now, when just a week past they'd mortgaged their homes and sold all of their possessions just to have a hand in the "can't miss" company. This single venture completely crippled the British economy, and an entire generation nearly went bankrupt.

Since some computer scientists use category theory, I was wondering if there are any programming languages that use it extensively.
Haskell is a purely functional language. However side-effects are (almost by definition) difficult to incorporate into a functional language. This is an important problem since I/O is a very important side-effect for most computer programs. Haskell's method of incorporating side-effects is to use monads.
One of the simplest ways to get a monad is from a pair of adjoint functors.
For more on monads see:
(1) Embûches tissues blog: Monads in Mathematics 1: examples
(2) A series of lectures on youtube by TheCatsters:
Pairs of adjoint functors are fairly common and I've found they provide a useful way for seeing part of the "big-picture" in many different branches of mathematics.
Here is one of several introductions to pairs of adjoint functors from the Concrete Nonsense blog.
ML is used in
Apparently there exists at least one "categorical programming language", namely Hagino
A Categorical Programming Language
(Hagino's Thesis)
There's Charity.
All of the answers so far are based on Cartesian closed categories. There are a few languages based on Cartesian categories, which reject use of higher-order functions in the base language:
See also the answers to Resources for learning practical category theory and What is λ-calculus related to?
From the Categorical_abstract_machine entry on wikipedia, which I'm not allowed to link to:
Caml (aka the basis for Microsoft's F#) is an acronym for Categorical Abstract Machine Language.
Other interesting reading is A Categorical Manifesto by Joseph Goguen.
His language project is the OBJ family of languages. Which I can't link to because I'm a new user and am restricted to 1 hyperlink.
Here's another one based on Hagino's thesis, asides charity. Implemented both in Haskell and Ruby.
Also see here.
CAML definitely uses it, but not extensively.
CAML by definition is Categorical Abstract Machine Language,
however I am not cetain that you can say that an language explicitly uses category theory. Perhaps you are asking "Are there languages that allow Category Theory Concepts to be easily represented?" or perhaps you are asking if the compilation or interpretation of a particular programming language uses Category Theory in its implementation?
While technically, all Turing-complete capable languages should be equivalently able to express the same set of computations, some languages do so more elegantly than others, allowing the programmer or mathematician to be more eloquent.
I would say LISP and SCHEME, even though based on lambda-calculus, are more connected to the spirit of category theory in concept. While the numbers and integers are conceptually defined as atomic and can be built up from primitives in concept and in theory; in practice, the implementations of SCHEME and LISP and (CLU) tend to take shortcuts to speed up implementation.
The hierarchical ability to pass functions and functions of functions (etc.) as first-class parameters to functions in LISP and SCHEME let you be able to emulate the actions or morphisms of category theory better in that language than others. You just have to start from the ground up, as I have not yet seen a library or package in LISP or SCHEME for category theory.
I'd say every statically typed functional language is such. Why? There's a well-known relation between propositions and types, or more precisely between certain theories of logic and certain type theories going by the name of Curry--Howard correspondence. This relation has a less well-known cousin known as Curry--Howard--Lambek correspondence that extends it to categories. Thus, because every reasonable statically typed functional language is based on type theory, it has direct connection to category theory as well. You simply cannot escape it, try as you might. Bob Harper likes to call this The Holy Trinity -- categories, languages and logic.
The list of such languages follows: Haskell, ML, OCaml, Idris, Coq, Agda, etc.
Of course, you have to take all of this with a grain of salt. Safe for Coq and Agda -- both of which are foremost theorem provers -- these languages contain many industry-driven quirks that make them less susceptible to the formal reasoning mentioned in the first paragraph.
In a bit different direction, because type theory is so expressive (for example, it can replace set theory as foundations of mathematics), it's fairly straightforward to express many algebraic structures in it. All of the above languages use this feature profoundly, with e.g. monads in Haskell playing a very prominent role.
See A Higher-Order Calculus for Categories by by Glynn Winskel and his student Mario Jose Cáccamo.

I would like questions that demonstrate why a mathematical tool or technique is useful, and which can be used to introduce that idea. Ideally, this would be a compilation of problems organized by the idea they motivate. Does anyone know of such a list? I am thinking of middle school and high school math, but I think such a list would be useful at any level.
This is similar to fundamental examples, I recommend you read that post as it was very interesting and at least partially answers your question.
I suggest you take a look at the Tricki:
If you're interested in middle school/high school math education, I'm sure you already know about Dan Meyer's excellent blog dy/dan.

What is a good idea for a baby gift for someone who has just had their third boy? They do not want to see one more blue stretchie :) - or even any piece of boy's clothing. They have toys and books, hooded towels and snowsuits, a high chair and mobile and bouncer and etc etc etc... Any ideas?
closed as primarily opinion-based by Rory Alsop♦, Skippy, Beofett Oct 15 '13 at 14:32
Many good questions generate some degree of opinion based on expert experience, but answers to this question will tend to be almost entirely based on opinions, rather than facts, references, or specific expertise.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
If it were me receiving the gift, I would find a gift card to WalMart or a grocery store or some place equally ubiquitous the most useful gift. We received several gift cards to Target when my daughter was born and they were so nice to have on hand when I turned out to need lots more newborn clothes than I expected or for diapers or for whatever. Even if they cloth diaper, they'll need detergent and other general essentials that you just run out of periodically.
A gift certificate to a spa. With three boys, mom'll probably need it. ;)
More seriously, though, unless it's consumables (diapers, detergents, etc) or gift cards/certificates to buy what they need, the family probably has everything they need from the first two (assuming the third was planned, or close enough to 2 that they didn't get rid of everything), so get creative and/or buy for the parents instead of the kids.
A gift certificate to a spa or a bed and breakfast, then, would probably be a welcome gift, especially if it also comes with a babysitting offer. "Gift certificates" for things like babysitting, house cleaning, or whatever else you can do to help the family would probably be welcome, too.
If you're the crafty sort, a homemade quilt or knitted/crocheted blanket may also make a nice gift (just make sure they know you expect them to use it).
If you're still set on getting a gift specifically for the baby, go with stuff that would be his alone, and unlikely to have something like it passed down from his brothers for sentimental reasons, such as a blankie or "lovey".
I found a few things useful for new parents with multiple kids.
a gift certificate to macy's or lord and taylor or something so the mom can get herself something
a picture frame with the same number of spots as there are kids.
I didn't want anyone to give us clothes, books or any furniture (crib/mattress/bouncer/high chair) for our second baby girl either. However, the things that we did go and purchase:
The new little one might also need its own pacifier and soft blanket. If your friends didn't get a baby carrier earlier, they might try one now.
Also consider: baby sitting or a dinner and movie gift certificate would be great presents for parents of three children.

For a non native English speaker, the introductory part of today's Washington Post article commenting on the flood of TV commercials during the Super Bowl contains a bunch of unfamiliar phrases and is quite a puzzle.
Can somebody explain me what 'Have the color and consistency of old gum,' 'The cheese is baked into crust' and 'Tweet one's delight that seven-layer dip has become nine,' in the following sentence imply ?
Is a sentence studded with all-Greek-to-me the writer's special style or just an ordinary pattern of newspaper article?
The effects of 45 (or XLV, if you must) direct slams to the head could be clearly seen Sunday night on that annual American CAT scan called the Super Bowl. Whole parts of our collective cerebellum now show up as having the color and consistency of old gum. Too many insipid Black Eyed Peas songs will do that to a civilization. The cheese really is baked into the crust. But willingly, like achy old pros, we returned to the holy rituals of this brutal game, this billion-dollar boondoggle, tweeting our delight that seven-layer dip has somehow become nine. Distraction is the real attraction, which gets a little more true each year.

A Senate panel has approved two measures that would require legislative approval before the state could expand Medicaid or operate a marketplace that sells insurance.
The bills passed 7-3 along party lines in the Senate Health and Welfare Committee, which has a Republican majority. The proposals will now proceed to the Republican-controlled Senate for a full vote. But the bills are expected to die in the mostly Democratic House.
Medicaid expansion and insurance exchanges are two components of the federal Affordable Care Act, which Republicans here have criticized as too costly. Gov. Steve Beshear, a Democrat, has already ordered the state to create an exchange. He hasn't decided on Medicaid expansion. Republican lawmakers say both actions deserve legislative consideration.

ANDERSON, S.C. – With 18 hits for the game and 12 runs in the fourth inning, Anderson University baseball cruised to a 22-12 marathon victory over nonconference in-state opponent North Greenville Thursday afternoon at Anderson Memorial Stadium.
The Trojans posted 20 runs for the first time since a 20-11 win over archrival Erskine on Feb. 15, 2010, as that came during a seven-inning game. With the 10-run triumph, Anderson earns a long-awaited victory, snapping a six-game setback streak. The 18 Trojan hits are the highest total this season, breaking a previous high, 15, in the home opener.
The 12 runs in the fourth inning ties the highest total of runs scored in an inning this season, as AU tallied 12 runs in the fourth inning in the series finale at Mars Hill on Feb. 8. For the inning, Anderson pounded out five hits, capped off by a three-RBI triple off the bat of sophomore first baseman Steven Cooper, who finished the afternoon with three runs scored and four RBI.
With his only hit on the day, Cooper extended his hitting streak to 13 games, as he ranks first on the team with seven doubles and is hitting .299 for the year.
Excluding senior catcher Ben Pendleton, who closed the contest with a 3-for-5 performance with three runs scored and an RBI, eight Trojans were substituted for, as the home side sent 17 different hitters to the plate for the night.
Headlining the lineup was designated hitter Jonathan Zalud who is a combined 7-for-7 in his last two games with five RBI and three runs scored. For the night, Zalud went 4-for-4 with two doubles, four RBI and two runs scored. On the year, Zalud is hitting .444 with a .630 slugging percent.
All but one Trojan in the starting lineup recorded a hit for the afternoon as the senior outfield trio of Josh Hickman, Nathan Galliford and Paul Como all banged out two hits, as Como notched two doubles with three RBI. Hickman and Galliford each tallied a double with Galliford scoring four runs and driving in two.
On the mound, sophomore hurler David Thompson claimed his second victory of the season, tossing five complete innings while striking out seven Crusaders, tying his strikeout amount from his last start against Nova Southeastern on Feb. 20. After being roughed up in his first two appearances, Thompson has bounced back, tossing a combined 11 innings with 14 strikeouts and giving up just five earned runs in his last two starts.
A quartet of pitches closed the game for the Black and Gold, as Mitchell Cooksey, Austin Smith, Daulten Stewart and Hunter Crompton solidified the victory on the night. Cooksey came in the game in the sixth inning and forced three straight outs, holding NGU in check.
The Crusaders added 11 hits for the game, as designated hitter Allen Staton was one of two NGU hitters with two hits on the night, as he recorded two runs scored with his hit tally. First baseman Josh Sealey joined Staton with a 2-for-4 day with three RBI and two runs scored.
Anderson looks to continue the hit parade on Friday when it returns to its South Atlantic Conference schedule against conference newcomer, Coker. First pitch from Anderson Memorial Stadium is set for 6 p.m.

My question is twofold: What makes a good routine and how do I stick to it?
Things to do in the morning include keep hygiene, have breakfast, pack lunch, and do bodyweight exercises. I find that the only one of these I keep without fail is keeping cleanliness. Often, instead, I get out of bed slowly and aimlessly surf the internet before even taking a shower.
I figure a couple things. First, I need to make a plan, and second, I need to practice this plan, say, during some weekend afternoon a couple times. What are your experiences and suggestions?

The 44-year-old has denied using banned substances during his time with Sociedad and has refuted the sensational claims made by a former president at the Basque clubFormer Real Sociedad midfielder Valeri Karpin says he was "unaware" of doping at the club despite claims by former president Inaki Badiola.
Badiola, whose reign lasted from January 2008 to the following December, claimed on Monday that his former club had been purchasing illegal substances for a six-year period from 2001 until 2007.
However, former Sociedad player Karpin, who was at the Basque outfit between 2002 and 2005, has refuted the claims.
"I cannot answer anything on that. I'm not aware of whether the team used doping or not," commented the current Spartak Moscow coach.
"Do I believe the club doctors supplied banned substances to the players? No."
