Motion Blur.
Hi, I have a doubt.
There is motion blur in software?
From already thank you very much.

No, there is no motion blur for css3 animations. You'd probably have to do that with code in a canvas element.

I am putting together a CV in latex, and I am trying to get my list of publications to display in reverse chronological order. I can use
\bibliographystyle{unsrt} as a workaround, and just order the entries manually, but I would naturally prefer if BibTeX did that for me.
Edit: Hmm... There seems to be no standard BibTeX style that does that, which is very surprising. I would expect that sorting publications in (reverse) chronological order is a common thing to do.

STEUBENVILLE - A big hit from Pat Pizzoferrato and another solid performance on the hill from Brandon Jones helped lift Steubenville Post 33 to an 8-4 win over Toronto Post 86 Wednesday.
With Toronto leading 4-3 in the bottom of the fifth Post 33 loaded the bases with a John Linn walk followed by singles by Alex Young and Brenton Colabella. After Post 86 starter Tyler Owens was pulled in favor of Jarin McIntosh, Steubenville's Jimmy Panella drew a walk the scored Linn to tie the game. Then Pizzoferrato gave an 0-2 pitch a ride for a bases-clearing triple that gave his team a 7-4 lead. Steve Mihalyo sent Pizzoferrato home on a groundout to short, and Post 33 had an 8-4 lead.
"I thought we came out pretty focused," said Post 33 head coach Don Young. "We had a big inning in the fifth. We've been doing that a lot. I'd like to see us score a little more consistently, but that's been our thing. It takes us a couple of at bats,a nd then we have a big inning."

CLEARING THE BASES — Steubenville Post 33's Pat Pizzoferrato slides into third in front of coach Donnie Young with a three-run triple in the bottom of the fifth inning as Toronto third baseman Jay Lane awaits the throw Wednesday at Vaccaro Field.
-- Fred Younce
Jones took advantage by pitching a scoreless sixth and Alex Young came in to pitch a scoreless seventh to secure the win.
Jones wasn't dominant, striking out four and walking eight, but did a good job of keeping Toronto batters off balance, allowing just four hits, as he picked up the win.
"The Jones kid kept us off," said Post 86 head coach Steve Sninchak. "He threw real well, and he was able to keep us off. We had the one inning against him."
Added Young of Jones' performance, "I thought Brandon kept us in the game. They got all four in one inning. It was tough because a lot of things happened there, but Brandon settled down and pitched well.
"That's two games in a row he's pitched well for us so it's something to build on."
The game's opening frame saw Post 33 score a pair of runs. Bryan Pierro reached on an error followed by a Linn single. Young brought the pair home with a single of his own and a 2-0 Steubenville lead.
Toronto was able to get to Jones in the third inning. John Romey drew a walk and took second on an errant pick off throw to first. Owens then grounded to short.
Young threw to Panella at third attempting to get Romey, but the umpire ruled he slid under Panella's tag. Matt Petrella drew a one-out walk to load the bases. Seth Wilson drilled a single that scored Romey and Owens. The throw to third to get Petrella ended up in the Post 33 dugout allowing him to score and sending Wilson to third. A Jay Lane single plated Wilson and Toronto led 4-2.
"I think coming into the game we weren't really ready to play," said Sninchak. "That's on me. We've been plugging along. It's been a grind for us. We've played a lot of baseball in the last week and a half, and we've played some good baseball too. It's one of those games, we were in it for a while.
"Our pitchers looked a little tired. Like I said Tuesday, we're an 11-man staff right now, and we're only carrying four pitchers. We have vacations, kids hurt, sore arms, so it's a long season."
Post 33 made the score 4-3 when Panella blasted a double and came home on a Mihalyo single.
Post 33 (20-5) hosts Moundsville today while Toronto (6-14) welcomes Massillon Friday.

About the Author
Julianne MacLean fell in love with some of the classic romances—Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, and Pride and Prejudice—while completing her degree in English literature. Then she decided that she needed a "real job," but after a brief stint as a government auditor, she realized she just didn't care enough about numbers matching up. So a month before her wedding, she sat down and wrote the first paragraph of a romance. Now fifteen years, a husband, and a daughter later, Julianne is a happy, fulfilled, stay-at-home mom and a devoted romance writer.

EnerSys showcases energy technology
March 23, 2011 - MMH Editorial
The story being told at EnerSys (Booth 1203) was all about power, so the company highlighted its fast charge and opportunity charging systems. Both technologies are designed to move the customer away from changing out batteries, Richard Benson, EnerSys sales engineer, told Modern at a booth visit on Wednesday.
One solution highlighted by EnerSys was the Express battery and charger products that can eliminate battery changes, changing rooms and equipment while helping to generate higher productivity and lower operating costs. The idea, Benson explained, is to keep the operator on the lift truck rather than stopping to deal with battery issues. He also said that by eliminating changes safety is enhanced because operators aren't lifting and moving heavy batteries.
EnerSys also shone the spotlight on opportunity charging solutions, including the EnForcer and Ironclad. The EnForce includes multiple ports and intelligent microprocessors that optimize charging efficiency and current/voltage control. Ironclad features a square tubular design of Ironclad batteries that offer a greater positive plate surface area compared to round tube batteries. Both opportunity charging systems, as well as others offered by EnerSys, enable battery charging during breaks and shift changes.
Looking into the future of power sources, EnerSys also displayed tomorrow's technology, namely its hydrogen fuel cell and lithium battery.
To see how electric lift trucks compare to gas or diesel powered trucks, EnerSys offers an online comparison calculator at http://www.enersysmp.com/ice/ICECC.asp
ProMat 2011 will be held March 21 - 24, 2011 at McCormick Place South in Chicago. The tradeshow will showcase the latest manufacturing, distribution and supply chain solutions in the material handling and logistics industry.

Typical situation: you fly into an enemy sector and pin some ships there with your ships. Now the enemy builds some starbases to pin your ship and let them be pinned so he can move his ships out of the sector (and into yours). Is this legal?

Starbases are classified as "Ships" (see page 6 of the manual), and despite their lack of a drive they work exactly like any other Ship as far as the game mechanics are concerned. This would include being able to pin, or be pinned by, opposing Ships. (see also this response by one of the game designers to a related question)
As per page 14, the relevant rules for pinning are,
As the rules clearly specify "Ship" without qualifying it further, they would apply to Starbases as they would any other Ship. So yes, the move was legal.

In the 21st measure of Mozart's Rondo alla Turca/Turkish March (3rd movement of K. 331), there's a trill in the treble clef that I can't quite get right. Would you be so kind to expand the measure as plain notes, so I know when to coordinate the base chords with the trill please?
It should be played somewhat like this:
Note that the trill should not necessarily be played exactly in time, but this should show you where it begins and ends.
I agree with the speed of the trill in Ben's answer, but this documents the fact that Mozart started his trills on the upper note (either directly or suspended). This is further proven by the fact that skipping directly from C to A is both unnatural and unlikely. Here is how it should be played: Starting on the upper note leaves us to end on the B, leaving a smooth step to the A. Note, the first C of the trill should be tied to the crotchet.

Dormitory living has come a long way since the drab, narrow halls and cramped, uninviting rooms that many of us remember from our own collegiate years. Just ask the University of Louisville students who are starting their Fall 2012 semester as residents of the luxurious new student housing facility, Cardinal Towne.
Located on Cardinal Boulevard between Third and Fourth Streets, the block-wide building is a short walk from the University's Belknap Campus, and brings the area another step closer to becoming the distinctive collegiate destination sought after with efforts such as UofL President Dr. Ramsey's widespread campus revitalization projects. Student-friendly eateries, including Quills Coffee, Qdoba, Jimmy Johns, The Comfy Cow and Papalino's Pizza line the first floor of the building, inviting young adults to gravitate in and stick around, rather than head away from campus to areas like the Highlands for their fast-food fix. A Cardinal Shop offers newly-moved-in students spirit-wear and accessories, without having to make a trip to the on-campus bookstore. Aside from the student apartments sitting just above, the colorful, inviting and youthful decor inside haunts like Quills Coffee, all by Barry Wooley designs, make the complex a natural destination for young people already in the midst of a busy semester.
In addition to the main student living complex – a new building, developed by IPA Investment Group and marketed toward underclassmen looking for a dorm-like environment – the adjacent Cardinal Towne "Classics" buildings sit next door, in historic Old Louisville residences that have been remodeled to offer modern conveniences while still retaining their old-fashioned appeal with original features like sleek wooden paneling, marble fireplaces and even stained glass windows. The "Classics" offer a house-like environment and are meant to appeal toward older graduate students, groups such as fraternities and organizations requiring office space. Both the "Classics" and the main complex back up to a large common patio area and swimming pool, open to all Cardinal Towne residents and complete with cabana-style seating, loungers and grilling space.
Inside the main complex, student-friendly amenities abound, with rooms dedicated to just about everything a college kid could want. "We actually surveyed students and asked them what they wished they had in their dorms," explained Cardinal Towne's designer, Barry Wooley. The survey's responses prompted Wooley and his team to create everything from an austere, modern study room filled with walled cubicles like one might find in a library, to a casual work-space with tables and chairs for partnered studying, to a lively student game room that holds both pool and foosball tables, cushy seating, flat-screen TVs and creative wall decor such as table-tops repurposed as basketball-themed art. Requests for a fitness room prompted Wooley to create multiple exercise spaces, all equipped for different kinds of activity. A large gym on the first floor holds most of the traditional exercise machines, while down the hall a smaller Cardio Room, featuring treadmills and a seated pedaling machine, caters to students looking primarily for that type of workout. A Group Fitness room with mirrored walls and floor cushions will host free classes in skills like Karate and self-defense, is perfect for yoga and other group exercises, and may even be opened up in the future to the surrounding community as a reservable space for "mommy meet-ups" and the like.
Perhaps the most popular item on the housing wish-list, however, was the movie theater, a dream which Wooley and his team brought to life for the students in Cardinal Towne. Heavy curtains, film-themed decor, automatic lighting, tiered sofa seating and an enormous TV screen make the "home" theater a decidedly pleasant alternative to the average college kid's laptop movie screening in a dim classroom or dorm room. Multiple student lounge areas, all uniquely decorated with eye-catching colors and casually inviting furnishing, some recycled from dormitory building storage and some purchased with the space in mind, create places where residents can congregate and relax, as a group or on their own. Evan Cruson, a Cardinal Towne resident and UofL Sophomore who is studying accounting and entrepeneurship, finds the lounge space perfect for reading and doing homework. "It used to be that I'd have to go to the library and study," Cruson commented. "Now i can just walk right down the hall."
While amenities like the pool and theater might draw students in need of housing to Cardinal Towne, it is the living quarters that entice them to stay at the new living facility. Units range from one-bedroom spaces to two-, three- and four-bedroom suites, and all feature modern kitchens and private bathrooms. In the two-bedroom suite, a full-size kitchen, dining nook and plenty of cabinet space rival that of a brand-new home. The two bedrooms each boast a walk-in closet leading into an elegant private bathroom. Stacked washer and dryer units come standard in every suite, meaning no scrounging for quarters or late-night trips to the laundromat. The spaces are furnished – each suite includes a table and chairs, bar stools, beds, desks, a sofa and even a TV – and in the staged room that is shown to prospective residents, Barry Wooley and his team added decorative accessories to enhance the space and show students how to use its potential. "We tried to show them where they could possibly live, here, by recreating the five senses," he described. "we tried to appeal to the students through good design."
Those details enhance a building full of not just visible amenities but also unseen benefits like energy-efficient insulation and electrical features. But for students looking for housing that offers the best that campus living has to offer, it may be all about the 'little things.' "We wanted to show people how cool you could make your space look," Wooley summed up the atmosphere of the tour's suite. "And the truth is that every kid that's walked through here has rented an apartment."
Cardinal Towne is still leasing for the Fall 2012 semester. The leasing office is located at 325 W Cardinal Blvd. If you would like more information on Cardinal Towne student living complex, call 502.475.5000.

ALABAMA, MISSISSIPPI (CBS) -- In a region where Georgian Newt Gingrich staked his presidential hopes, it's a two-for-two night for surging Rick Santorum.
With 80 percent of the precincts reporting, Santorum led Newt Gingrich in Alabama with 35 percent support to Gingrich's 30 percent support. Mitt Romney followed with 28 percent support.
Meanwhile, in Mississippi, with 96 percent of votes in, Santorum led with 33 percent support, while Gingrich followed him with 31 percent. Romney came in third with thirty percent.
According to exit polls out of Alabama, Santorum did particularly well among very conservative voters and women. He also did well among those who thought it was most important that a candidate have a strong moral character or that he be a true conservative, and those who thought it was very or somewhat important that they share a candidate's religious beliefs.
"We did it again," Santorum exclaimed Tuesday night, in remarks to supporters after the polls closed. "This is a grassroots campaign for president... This campaign is about ordinary folks doing extraordinary things - sort of like America."
The candidate also took a swipe at Romney for allegedly considering himself the "inevitable" GOP nominee.
"For someone who thinks this race is inevitable he spent a whole lot of money against me," Santorum said, before jabbing "all the establishment" for being "on the other side of this race."
Overall in Alabama, 80 percent of primary voters identified as born-again or evangelical Christians. Seventy-five percent of primary voters said they thought it mattered either a great deal or somewhat that a candidate share their religious beliefs. Newt Gingrich, who finished a close second in the contest, won among men, according to exit polls.
In both Mississippi and Alabama, Romney is dogged by the notion that he is insufficiently conservative: More than half of Alabama primary voters and Mississippi voters alike say Romney's issue positions are not conservative enough. In Mississippi, 49 percent of voters say Santorum's positions on the issues are about right, while 56 percent say the same of Gingrich. In Alabama, more than 50 percent of voters say both Gingrich and Santorum's positions on the issues are "about right."
Polling out of Alabama and Mississippi ahead of Tuesday's contest showed close contests between Romney, Santorum and Gingrich. A victory in the conservative South would help Romney demonstrate he has the ability to rally his base, although he remains far from the 1,144 needed to clinch the nomination. A win for Gingrich could help him demonstrate his strength in the region.
For Santorum, the projected win in Alabama could help the former Pennsylvania Senator prove he is the authentic conservative and alternative to Romney.

Made this for my lunches this week, super good! I subbed carrots for the celery, added lots more nutritional yeast (cause it's so yummy), used only 1.5 c soymilk, rest broth/water, and did tofutti sour cream instead of the creamer at the end. Oh, and I added a can of chickpeas for more protein. This is a seriously good soup...thanks so much for the recipe!

My Bf (non vegan) and I made this soup. As the soymilk i have at home (storebought) is a touch too sweet for his taste, i used only 1 1/2 cups and rest water, we added cauliflower, and used only 2 spoons of Yeastflakes and no soy creamer, but soy cream and milk.
Even then, very tasty, filling, warming, yummy (and not too coconuty). Try it, you'll get a nice creamy soup that's good for you! Go Vegan Dad! Congratulations on the latest Vegan Baby!

i searched all over the 'net tonight for a good potato soup recipe, but nothing popped out at me. "wait a minute... vegandad MUST have some type of potato soup recipe!" and lo and behold... here it is! and it was wonderful!
i only had regular russet potatoes, so i used three of them. it worked, but the thin skins on the red potatoes would have been perfect. thanks again for another great recipe!
(and congrats on another addition to the vegan clan!)

The other day I bought some soy creamer from Trader Joe's and it was really sweet, which drastically altered my soup.
Do you have a favourite?
Also, wouldn't the coconut milk cream alter the taste as well.
P.S. Kudos to you! You're a pretty inventive chef.

Unfortunately, I could not find that expression in the books on my bookshelf, like Koblitz, Milne, Silverman etc, and the only place on the Internet where I found such formulas, were two wiki-articles: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weierstrass's_elliptic_functions and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theta_function. These formulas, however, contradict each other, and neither of them, when run on computer, gives rational values for elliptic curves with complex multiplication and class number 1. Can anybody give a reliable link to correct formulas?
I recommend Lester R. Ford's classic book "Automorphic Functions" for this. It gives very explicit formulae for all these quantities, in particular, the $J$-invariant, and it is written with great care in a very readable style.
A good modern source in English is N. Akhiezer, Elements of the theory of elliptic functions. The formulas you are asking are in section 21, chapter IV.
The formulas at the Wikipedia article on the J-invariant seem to be correct. At least, the formula $g_2 = \frac{2\pi^4}{3}(\theta_{00}^8 + \theta_{01}^8 + \theta_{10}^8)$ yields $g_2 = 60G_4 = \frac{4\pi^4}{3}E_4$, as one would expect from the usual coordinate representation of the $E_8$ lattice.
I don't know what you mean when you say that the expression of $j$ in terms of Jacobi theta functions is "better". Each expression has its advantages.

Mississippi metal artist Stephanie Dwyer never knew she was an artist until she relocated from Washington and began building bottle trees. Today her bottle trees can be found all over the U.S., which has led to opportunities in custom metal art fabrication.

Choosing a filler metal with the right mechanical and chemical properties for your application is critical. Correct properties not only ensure the proper weld strength, but may also help prevent costly complications. In applications that endure rapid or cyclic loading, experience extreme service temperatures, or are subject to other stressors that threaten the integrity of the weld, using a filler metal that provides the proper impact toughness is especially important.

Aluminum has garnered a reputation for being difficult to weld, especially when using gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW). Mastering the process isn't as daunting as you might think. All you really need for successful aluminum GTAW is an understanding of the metal's unique properties and the welding preparation techniques and tools you'll need to address those properties.

Are you concerned about how much time your child spends watching TV or movies, playing with a smartphone or computer, or enjoying video games?
Although some screen time can be educational, it's easy to go overboard. Consider this guide to children and TV, including what you can do to keep your child's screen time in check.
The American Academy of Pediatrics discourages media use by children younger than age 2 and recommends limiting older children's screen time to no more than one or two hours a day. Too much screen time has been linked to:
Your child's total screen time might be greater than you realized. Start monitoring it and talk to your child about the importance of sitting less and moving more. Also, explain screen time rules — and the consequences of breaking them. In the meantime, take simple steps to reduce screen time. For example:
When your child has screen time, make it as engaging as possible:
It can be difficult to start limiting your child's screen time. It's worth the effort, however. By creating new household rules and steadily making small changes in your child's routine, you can curb screen time and its effects.

I heard that you need a biometric passport if you want to enter USA. However, my friend has a biometric passport, but no fingerprints in it. Is this enough? And how long has the passport to be valid? Is it okay if it expires on the day after his return date?
What kind of passport do I need?
See the passport requirements for travel under the Visa Waiver Program. (The VWP applies to German citizens among others.) It says this about biometric passports:
My passport doesn't contain fingerprints (to my knowledge), but that wasn't a problem (2011). What happens is they take your fingerprints & photograph when entering the country. (If the passport does contain your fingerprint data already, I'm not sure if they'd just read that or take the fingerprints again.)
So yes, your friend should be fine.
To be more precise, the passport only needs to be electronic & biometric if it was issued on or after October 26, 2006. (Except for citizens of Czech Republic, Estonia, Slovakia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Republic of Malta, South Korea, and Greece who always need an electronic passport.) In any case it needs to be machine readable (i.e. contain two lines of text with numbers and chevrons (<<<) at the bottom).
How long does the passport have to be valid?
To answer your updated question:
For citizens of Germany (and most other ESTA-eligible countries), yes, this is okay; no extra validity is required. The passport only needs to be valid for the duration of the visit.
A document entitled Six-month Club Updates from a U.S. Customs and Border Protection web page (found through this question) has this to say:
Germany is on the (long) list of counties that follows.
Finally, tell your friend to just go ahead with the ESTA application already (unless the trip is a very long time away; the authorisation is valid for multiple trips over a period of two years). As someone wrote on the internets:

The following light was removed from my outside front porch because the bulb had burned out. Only problem is I didn't remove it and now I need to put the thing back up, but I'm not sure how the connection should be. Is this something I should even be doing at this point?
It looks like you've ruined it. The stranded wires (such as the black one visible in the picture) are usually permanently attached to the lamp (Inside those cloth tubes). The solid wires are your household wiring. Normally you'd attach the stranded black to the solid black with a wire nut, and the same with the whites. Then attach the bare copper ground (or green) to the brass tab in the light. But it looks like someone just ripped it off and detached the stranded wires from the fixture.
Buy a new one, and if you are unsure of how to remove the old wires or correctly wire a new fixture, the safest thing to do is hire a qualified electrician.
Also, make sure your housemates read this: http://www.wikihow.com/Change-a-Light-Bulb
Warning, dangerous advice, see comments
If the black and red cable is still long enough. Fiddle it through the hole and attach it directly to the bulb's socket.

I recently started working full-time as a software developer. [potentially unnecessary background info here]
I've always had a problem focusing. It's very difficult for me to push down my curiosity in order to produce.
One thing that is particularly troubling to me, however, is that during work I find myself staring at the same thing for minutes at a time. Particularly if there is something I've been thinking about on my non-work time, it's INCREDIBLY hard to stop thinking about that thing and instead focus on the work I have to do. As I mentioned, I'll stare at something for a few minutes before realizing I've been background processing a completely different thing. I'm not actively thinking about something, in fact I'm actively NOT thinking. I've gone for over five minutes at a time with a completely blank "active mind".
I was able to graduate from college despite this, but now it's gotten to the point that I'm starting to feel incredibly guilty that I'm not focused. I feel I owe it to my employer to be on task, even if I don't like what I'm doing.
I've tried meditation and other things to try increasing the skill of focus, but nothing has seemed to help. Meditation has without a doubt made me a calmer, more patient person. It hasn't helped me focus. Also, I read the recommendations here: How to focus on a long class?. Great ideas, but even minimizing all potential distractions is worthless when the biggest distraction is myself!
Any recommendations? Please, anything at all that could help. I'm at my wit's end with myself.

In the United States alone, there are 96,000 Americans waiting for an organ transplant. In order to have a transplant though, they must have a donor, and that number is extremely low.
Pam Silvestri with the Southwest Transplant Alliance says, "Everyday about 18 people pass away before the organs that they've been waiting for, become available."
Waiting for an organ, can be a test of fate and sometimes faith. Not know what's going to happen minute by minute of everyday. For some, the wait could be a few months, for others a few years. The truth is, it's a scary situation on both sides. But it doesn't have to be. In fact, it can be a life changing experience.
Pam says, "When a lot of people think about organ donation, they think about organs-hearts, lungs, livers. That's not what this is about, it's one human being choosing to help another human being, once they don't need their organs anymore."
Carl Dunlap, as many of you know, is the former police chief in Gainesville. He's also a survivor because of one man. "His name is Billy. I think about him everyday. He's a part of my life. I made that list, almost died, but didn't because my donor had a motorcycle accident that day. His family on the worst day of their lives made the decision to donate their sons organs."
Billy was a 21-year-old motorcycle fanatic, whose death in a freak bike accident, saved Carl's life. In this case, the second chance for life was only a few miles away. Carl says, "I was laying in Dallas dying. The doctor came in and said, within 12-24 hours I was either going to be with my family or not. It was that close."
Carl had hemochromatosis, a blood disease which eats at your liver. Within a few months of having the disease, he was living a life, where each day you wake up is a miracle. But it wasn't just Carl that's grateful for what Billy did. "It wasn't just me that Billy's liver saved. There was a 11-month-old baby that got the small portion. When you look at that, what a miracle. I don't know how many organs went. His passing more than just my life, it effected others, what a miracle. What a miracle."
So what is organ donation about? After all, when we think about giving away our organs, death seems to be the only way around it. That's not a conversation most of us are comfortable talking about. 'So the way I would suggest to people, is the way we talk about life coming in to the world. We need to start the conversation the same. What do we want to do with the end of our lives. Lets do it now when we're young, so that it's not a morbid conversation, it's not something that's going to scare us."
It's giving a part of you away, but when you sit down and think about it, those organs you no longer need.
The process is very simple. You just log onto your state's organ donor registry which we've provided below. Answer a few questions, and you're set! But most importantly, so is someone else.
Carl says, "I truly understand, that if I have to leave this world, take whatever I've got left and give it to someone else. I understand the process, and I think that's what God wants us to do. We give our money and our time to help our fellow man and I think we stop short sometimes. "
If we're going give, lets go the full mile. Remember, life is a journey, so don't sell yourself or someone else short.

MILFORD (January 28, 2013)—An Arlington woman was killed Saturday night when the car she was riding in was involved in a crash on a rural Hill County roadway.
Department of Public Safety trooper Don Mills reported Misty Seaton, 35, died at the scene just after 11:15 p.m. Saturday along U.S. Highway 77 some 6 miles south of Milford.
Seaton was a passenger in a 2006 Hyundai driven by Zack Ellis, 25, of Milford, who suffered minor injuries, the trooper reported.
Trooper Mills said the Hyundai was southbound on U.S. 77 when the driver failed to negotiate a curve in the road and the car careened into a roadside ditch and struck a grove of trees.
Mills reported the roadway was wet and there was fog in the area when the accident happened.
Ellis was wearing a seat belt, Seaton was not, the trooper reported.
Seaton's body was taken to Marshall and Marshall Funeral Home, in Hillsboro, where arrangements were pending.

Which Patients With Neuroendocrine Tumors Should Have Genetic Testing?
Last Modified: January 7, 2013
What are the criteria for referral to a genetic counselor for genetic testing in the presence of NETs? Who should be tested?
Shana Merrill, CGC, Genetic Counselor at Penn Medicine responds.
First, I would like to note that sometimes people see a genetic counselor for evaluation and do not have genetic testing if it's not warranted after careful assessment. Although this list is not exhaustive, it covers the vast majority of cases appropriate for referral for genetic evaluation as related to NETs. Any and all individuals with a personal history of pheochromocytoma or paraganglioma should be referred for genetic evaluation; we tend to test all comers with that tumor type with testing being directed based on the patient's specific history. Any individual with a personal history of medullary thyroid cancer should be referred to a genetic counselor; all individuals of this nature should be tested for MEN2. Any individual who has a personal history of hyperparathyroidism requiring significant surgical intervention (typically 3 and 1/2 lobes removed) prior to the age of 50 should be referred to a genetic counselor for consideration of MEN1. Any individual with a personal history of a NET in the context of other family members also with a history of documented NETs should be referred to a genetic counselor for evaluation. Any individual with a personal history of other rare NET at a very young age or of multiple documented primary NETs in the same person should be referred for genetic evaluation. We evaluate referrals on a case by case basis and are happy to discuss the appropriateness of specific referrals with physicians or families as needed for unique cases not addressed above.

Assuming the migrating sites are successful enough to migrate to SE 2.0, what Area51 phase should they start in?
What is meta?
- Any Stack Exchange user can ask a question
- The community provides support, votes on ideas, and reports bugs
- Your voice helps shape the way Stack Exchange operates
Having founded a Stack Exchange 1.0 site, Basically Money, that was recently migrated into SE 2.0 as money.stackexchange.com, here's my $0.02 on the subject:
Stack Exchange 1.0 sites migrating into Stack Exchange 2.0 should still have a private beta, but the private beta MUST include all of the SE 1.0 site's registered users. .. (in addition, of course, to the new users that committed to the area51 proposal.)
More in my answer here.
In a nutshell: There's value in a private beta, but don't slam the door on the SE 1.0 user base.
Well, they are public already, aren't they? I would say that, if they meet the necessary criteria to survive like number of users and size of traffic, this should be a rather seamless thing for the users. Therefore I would say they start as public site right away, just with a new, slightly different feature set.
All sites that do not meet the necessary criteria can easily undergo the full Area51 proposal process and save themselves by this time generating more interest. In this case, the mods of the old site should have the possibility to clean up the question body which then should be migrated to seed the beta phase.
At this point I don't have a definite opinion on what phase the sites should start on, but I thought it might be useful to post some information on how it is working at the moment. There has already been one migration and there a few proposals that could be migrations.
The site that made the move was called Basically Money (now the Personal Finance and Money beta) and it went through the same stages as the other proposed sites. There is also a current Libraries proposal in the commitment phase that is a proposed migration from Unshelved Answers).
Of the proposals in the definition phase I am aware of at least two that appear to be based on existing 1.0 sites:
There may be some others, but these are the only ones that I have seen so far.

Date Climbed: Aug 30, 2015
|Today I climbed 14,265 ft. Castle Peak and 14,060 ft. Conundrum Peak in Colorado's Elk Range. After work on Saturday I drove up Independence Pass towards Aspen. I camped after driving up a rough 4WD road which included a river crossing. I started from camp at 11,000 ft. at 5AM and made fast progress on Northeast Ridge route. I made the summit of Castle at 8:30 AM and proceeded down to the col between Castle Peak and my next target, Conundrum Peak. I made the summit of Conundrum at approx. 9:15AM and then had to re-summit Castle Peak. I made it back to camp at 11:45AM. Epic day and 31 Colorado 14ers done!

Currently ExtJS 4 is much the same as previous versions from this perspective. You can alter the default renderer on grids easily enough if that's what you want (it's something I would recommend).
It is something the dev team are aware of:

That was pure speculation on my part. But my expectation in general is that on most browsers, most of the time this:
will be faster than:
div.innerHtml = myText;
The original comments regarding performance seem to be assuming that you MUST use "div.innerHtml" and thus you would have to escape the text (in JavaScript) which would naturally be less efficient.

This has not been adressed in 4.1.1.
I can still recreate this bug:
Which results in temporary ui hacks (very ugly bugs) because html is not escaped properly (within the framework) out of the box.
Now we need to double encode content for ext js 4 frontend.
This way we break our common rest api.
This is not funny!
EXT JS needs to encode html within the framework itself properly.
Best example:
Try to store html data in a model property.
The data can break the page and or modify the objects in runtime.
Especially if its coming from the backend (you can see it in the page source as the raw data attribute).
This is really bad!!!
No data what so ever should break my ui.
It can be displayed wrong, but it should not break my ui !!!!

My 2 cents. The lack of Client side XSS protection shouldn't be an issue because you should "always" protect server side. Anything that Sencha build into the framework can be very easily hacked out client side.
For client side protection in EXTJS I believe Sencha should leave this for the end user/dev to work out. I'd rather not have more layers on top of the JavaScript framework slowing things down. I'd prefer to add bespoke implementations to my app.

Yes I agree !
XSS Protection is a serverside matter, I agree.
I really hope all web devs not that too.
We are not trusting the client to protect us from the complete
(As you could read we are re-endcoding every thing for ext js )
This is why I mentioned them as "ugly bugs", as they are only supposed XSS hacks.
Only work when you do not encode your stuff serverside.
Then again with local stores I can hack the hell out of my ui, which is not really that much of an issue,
unless it affects usability.
Which it does.
I guess I have to admit maybe the issue does not enable a full XSS hack.
Yet the mentioned root cause is affecting usability.
We end up doing the whole encoding reencoding thing ourselves.
Thanks for the adivce.
All web framework devs should know tho, that html encoding should work properly within the framework data itself.
Again I would like to refer to the bug:
Which really is a funny issue.
8 Aug 2012 1:30 AM #149
There is no single way to encode data to protect against XSS. You have to encode for the appropriate context: HTML, URL, CSS, attribute, or script. See the OWASP cheatsheet for explanation of the different contexts: https://www.owasp.org/index.php/XSS_...on_Cheat_Sheet
So, there is no single way to encode data. You have to encode for the context in which data will be used, even if all of it is in a web page. This means a web service must either encode for the specific context the data is used, or send the data 5 times, in 5 different encodings. The first one intimately ties the web service's implementation to the front-end implementation, the second one is hugely wasteful. Neither is a good design. Long story short: in my opinion, if you're encoding for output in your web service, you're doing it wrong.
So, let's all agree that encoding for output must be done in the web service client, the rendering layer. In an ExtJS app, this means it happens inside ExtJS code. If it must be done in ExtJS code, and it must; and if the ExtJS framework knows the exact context where data will be used, and it does; why in the world wouldn't you want to have the framework encode for output by default?
But even if encoding by default doesn't happen, can we at least get a master switch? I want to start my code with Ext.encodeForOutput = true and have the framework handle everything for me. Why can't I even get that?

The default rendering of ui makes XSS happen.
But it seems as an enterprise software developer I do not understand your concept of webdevelopment.
I mentioned before that we now ended up encoding data on our api for specific context in ext js.
Which is the wrong way.
As joeri described.
So we of course are going to patch up encoding / re-encoding in our ui.
All web framework devs should know tho, that html encoding should work properly within the framework (client) data itself.
I can break the Ext Js ui out of the box with simple html input easily.
Which should not be possible!
This is where the problem starts.
See related discussion on html encoding:http://www.sencha.com/forum/showthre...l=1#post651043
We agree that "we" the devs can fix this. Also we agree that this is our concern to have proper encoding and dodge XSS.
Yet as a dev I would like to kindly ask you to support this very basic yet very important feature.
As it breaks ui and YES opens XSS threats if you do not actively encode properly for that ui context.

The choice America will make
"Ronald Reagan changed the trajectory of America in a way that Richard Nixon did not and in a way that Bill Clinton did not." That was Barack Obama in 2008. He was right. Reagan was an ideological inflection point, ending a 50-year liberal ascendancy and beginning a 30-year conservative ascendancy.

My background in mathematics is very poor (i.e. last relevant math class taken was high school Trigonometry two years ago - another story for another time). I'm reading 'Javascript: The Definitive Guide' and it's a term that is being repetitively used and I've sort of just ran with it. But I've come to a chapter (Chapter 6 - Objects) where my lack of understanding of the term and its application in programming/OOP is starting to become detrimental to the learning process. The online dictionaries aren't helping out, so does somebody have a more explainable definition and/or example to show?

Mathematically, enumerable means "can be placed into a one to one correspondence with the natural numbers". Most representations in computing are enumerable because they are made of strings of bits, and strings of bits can be taken to denote numbers in the binary system.
Some data representations are not considered enumerable, though. For instance a floating point number is made out of bits, but we work with it as an approximation to a real number. At the binary level we can "count" through consecutive floating-point numbers, but usually this is not relevant in numeric applications.
In some other situations, enumeration is possible, but there is no agreement on an enumeration. For instance, all the objects in your run-time image constitute a finite set and can be enumerated. The garbage collector does that that when it walks through the live objects. But the application does not enumerate the set of all objects in that way without regard for type or module boundaries; it enumerates smaller of objects that are of the same kind, or related.
Usually where an enumeration exists formally, there is agreement by all parties. Here is a set of values. This one is first. That one is its successor, and so on.
In some programming languages, there exist enumerated types: some disciplined way of defining named symbolic constants which are mapped by the compiler to unique integer values. If such types are strongly typed, then these constants can only be stored in variables of their corresponding type, called an enumerated type. For instance a user-defined enumeration of type
The verb enumerate is also used to denote the concept of querying an API to retrieve a list of objects, usually in stepwise fashion: enumerate the network interfaces, enumerate the files in a directory, and so on. Whenever an object is in a 1:N correspondence with some other objects, it it is susceptible to supporting an enumeration API which lets us walk through those sibling objects, or retrieve them as a list. The terminology is a little murky; for instance in some cases, even if the elements are not in a particular order, but can all be visited without repetition, it is still enumeration. Some dynamic set data structures such as hash tables do not provide a particular order, and can reorganize themselves as they grown and shrink, so that the actual order varies when insertions and deletions are performed.
I just pulled out my copy of JavaScript: The Definitive Guide, flipped to chapter 6, and quickly read over the section 6.5 Enumeratng Properties. Now, I should add that I'm not a particularly strong math person either, so hopefully this makes sense:
Specifically, "enumerable" means that there is some sort of ordering scheme taking place, so that you can quickly/easily address the items in that set/sequence/collection (or, in that section of JavaScript: The Definitive Guide, the object).
To apply it to what you are reading in the book, when the author says that the properties you extend a class with are enumerable, he is merely saying, that any property you add to an object (not those that are inherited) can be iterated over. So, if you create an object
...when you iterate over it with the following loop (I am using descriptive variable names here):
...you will see three items logged to your JS console:
This is telling you that the properties in object
An enumerable is an object that may be enumerated. "Enumerated" means to count off the members of a set/collection/category one by one (usually in order, usually by name).
An enumerable then is an object that can step through a series of other objects one by one.

Key Watch Dogs characters revealed in explosive new trailerWritten by: / / No Comments
Hands up those of you who are excited for Watch Dogs this month?
Well… we can't really see you (which is surely a relief), but we're going to take it for granted that a lot of hands shot up. In the game's latest trailer we're introduced to a few of the characters we'll meet in Watch Dogs, which we're pretty sure will keep those hands held in the air until launch.
Ubisoft warns us that, in the world of Watch Dogs, it's never completely clear who you can trust mainly because it's "filled with duality, danger, and warring factions," they say, and everything can change "with the touch of a smart phone, keystroke, or pull of a trigger — it's volatile, to say the least."
"It remains to be seen how Aiden interacts with these individuals," Ubisoft writes, "but they're all unique and complex characters that help add color and intrigue to the game's story."
Introduce yourself to some of the key Watch Dogs characters ahead of the game's launch later this month and let us know which you think are trustworthy or not:
Watch Dogs Characters Revealed Trailer
Watch Dogs is out on May 27th around the world on PC, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Xbox One and PlayStation 4, while the Wii U version of the game will release "at a later date" now that the team is "fully focussed" on this version of the game.
Catch up with Ubisoft's next open-world action game thanks to El33tonline's extensive previous coverage, with loads of trailers, screenshots and information.

If it is decided to pursue formal qualifications there are several options available to you. However, at present you are responsible for paying for, as well as organising, any qualifications you wish your child to pursue. This can become expensive as well as quite daunting.
When considering qualifications it is very important to consider what they are going to be used for. Not all qualifications are universally accepted or accorded equal status amongst colleges, universities and employers. For instance, if your child hopes to take a particular course at university it is essential to check which qualifications are accepted for that course.
It is well worth looking through the information provided by some of the Home Education organisations and below are just a few of the discussions you may find useful:
These are usually the first things that come to mind when thinking of children's qualifications and indeed many home educated children successfully pursue these. However, many GCSEs include an element of coursework, which can be great if a child does not perform well under formal exam conditions but unfortunately the work has to be independently assessed, introducing further cost. IGCSEs (International GCSEs) were developed for overseas students and are sometimes used by home educated families.
It is important to note that GCSEs and IGCSEs can be taken at any age and, unlike school educated children, your child can take them as and when you feel they are ready to do so. A look at revision guides, workbooks and, especially, past papers or mock exams may help in deciding when to go for particular exams.
Some schools (but by no means all schools) may be able to offer help for ex-pupils intending to take GCSEs, particularly if they were on-roll at any time during Key Stage 4.
Information about taking GCSE and IGCSE exams as a private candidate can be found at these links:
Other Qualifications
GCSEs and IGCSEs are by no means the only qualifications available and you may decide that they are not as appropriate as some of the other options such as ASDANs or the Ingots computer qualifications.
ASDANs are modular accreditations gaining recognition for a variety of activities. ASDAN qualifications are increasingly gaining recognition and their CoPE level 4 certificate counts as 70 UCAS points for university / college entrance.
INGOTs are International Grades in Open Technologies. From very basic ICT these courses progress to GCSE equivalent and are completed by a mixture of home study and attendance at a training centre. The Birmingham Education Otherwise group are authorised trainers for INGOTs.
Distance learning, College and Night School Courses
Distance learning (or 'correspondence courses') is an option chosen by many home educating families as it provides a ready made structure and curriculum with pre-determined, measurable learning outcomes (the very reasons it is not chosen by others). There is a huge variety of courses available, delivered by very many organisations. Cost varies between courses and between providers and it is a good idea to check what is included in the price (eg: books, other materials, coursework, assessments, tutors and exam centre fees). Two providers sometimes used by home educators are the National Extension College and Oxford Home Schooling, but these are by no means the only ones available. It would always be useful to talk to others who have tried distance learning.
The organisation below may also be of help in finding suitable courses and providers:
- The Open and Distance Learning Quality Council
An independent body which accredits courses. They will provide a free leaflet listing approved organisations and their courses;
Tel: 020 7612 7090
Email: email@example.com Web: www.odlqc.org.uk
The Open University (OU), for people aged 16 or over, may be an option. For example, OU runs a range of 'Openings' courses which have no entry requirements and which can count towards an eventual degree. Children under 16 may be able to take OU courses but only with the agreement of their 'Young Applicants Team'.
Further Education Colleges may take under 16s at the discretion of the Principal. Parents will probably have to pay the full cost of the course and an adult may be required to attend with the child.
There are some, less formal courses, that your child may complete that have no recognised qualifications attached. Perhaps dry stone walling or pottery, for example, at an outdoor activity centre. In these cases keep your own records. There may be a certificate of attendance or achievement and you could always ask the person in charge of the course to write a brief note about your child's successes. This can all go towards building a picture of your child's education and this could be useful at interviews for jobs, college or university.Further Education colleges in Birmingham

During my research I found an interesting fact, and I'd like to know if it's interesting for others as well. Find a function $g(x,t):[0,T]\times[0,T]\rightarrow[0,T]$ such that for any twice differentiable $f(x):[0,T]\rightarrow[0,T]$ such that $f(0)=f'(0)=0$, the equality $$ f(x)=\intop_0^Tf''(t)g(x,t)dt$$ holds. Note that $g$ is independent of $f$.
I found such a $g$, and I'll post it as an answer soon. I'd like to know if this is simple/known/interesting.
