2) I believe the "official" US release date was listed as 2013 - but I am sure things could change.
Thread: Questions about Kokorico...
1)Does this get hated on because its a bad fragrance, or does it get hated on because its too close to L'Instant? As in, if there was no L'Instant, would this be a hit with you guys?
2)Will this release in US? at like Nordstroms, Neimans, Sephora, etc?
Thanks guys

I don't hate it at all. I rather like it. Nothing spectacular, but not horrid either. Glad I have it in my collection.

where is this one being hated on? it seems to be mostly ignored.
Want to trade - Chanel Platinum Egoiste for Dior Eau Sauvage...
From the descriptions I am getting, I dont know why basenotes wouldnt like this.
I would assume that the cocoa and fig leaf would give it a creamy cocoa feel as fig in fragrance sometimes comes out as creamy and milky, while the base is a nice wood.
Can anyone whos tried this comment on the projection and longevity?
I sprayed it once on my wrist and it projected very well for that. It also seems to be longlived as I could clearly smell it after a couple of hours. I did not perceive anything creamy or milky on my skin, rather a sort of smoky woodiness, clearly patchouli.
I think hedonist is right. There was nothing sweet to my nose.
i dont think this one is hated. its just ignored. Also its not very close to L'Instant, except in the beginning (for around 30 minutes) when the cocoa note is projecting more. After that at least on my skin Kokorico turns more herbal and woody. Contrary to the some opinions here, i got good longevity and projection out of it, but at best i will probably end up with smallest bottle of this juice though never say never. Side by side, i would pick kokorico over instant EDT, but i am biased cause i dont like the guerlain.
My boyfriend loves Kokorico and whenever he tries to shop, I said "Yeah but it's a less subtle version of L'Instant de Guerlain." I will eventually buy him because I'm tired of posing as a killjoy. Good longevity and good projection.
It's clear by the way it is displayed in various shops that Kokorico doesn't sell well regarding other JPG fragrances, so I went on asking several SA how people react when presented with this fragrance, and the same reply over and over again : it doen't feel like a Gaultier fragrance, which is exactly what was intended by the designer. Hit and miss.
I think this a very decent fragrance nonetheless, bordering on a bit too safe but quite interesting in its dryness and dustiness, reminding me distantly of Borneo 1834.
I like Kokorico. As pointed out, it's got a 'serious, proper perfume' vibe: dry, dusty patchouli and cocoa then slightly bitter herbs. It'll get more and more fans over time, I reckon.
Not much like L'Instant de Guerlain - which is creamier and more 'approachable'.
Just tested this in store. Better than expected. Any resemblance to LIDGE is fleeting. I don't think this will be a hit, it isn't sweet enough for the target audience. The drydown is 'Baudelaire goes to Borneo', with the same woody musty quality I find in the former and the dry cocoa/patch from the latter. A good effort, but not for me.
I cannot answer question 2), but I surely know it has been released in my country, both in regular fragrance stores and online
As for question 1), it's actually not a bad scent, in fact, even good on the gourmand side and I'm not going to despise and invalidate it, just because it may be fashionable to do so
After a long interval I've tried several designer scents - better to say re-sampled many of them. For me it's obvious Kokorico is much better than the majority Douglas would carry. Dark, manly, very good longevity - not my cup of tee, but for those liking this type of scents could be really satisfactory.
I tested this at an airport duty free in Los Angeles.
In my view, it's like this: imagine L'instant were reformulated to become weaker, woodier in the base, and in general it seemed like the ingredients were of less "quality" and the fragrance was less complex.
There would be an uproar and a lot of people would be very disappointed.
Well that's what Kokorico was like to my nose. It was like a bad reformulation of Guerlain's l'instant, which in and of itself, would still be "good" in comparison to other scents, but in comparison to its earlier glory would have to be found sorely wanting.
Hard to get excited about a fragrance like this.
I tried Kokorico few days ago. In my opinion it is one of better releases of last years. Doesnt smell as synthetic as other Gaultiers and is nice masculine woody mix with bit of cocoa. It doesnt smell as mature as Guerlain L'Instant. Also it isnt as sweet as I expected (CK One Shock that I tried same day on other wrist was sweeter). I might be buying it later because I dont own Guerlain and nothing in my wardrobe smells like it.
A very forgettable fragrance of something that has been done many times prior in the past. I don't think it will fair well here in the united states it maybe might be an exclusive to sephora like le terrible was with out any fan fair. Neither of these recent releases for men by gaultier have the luster after his flop from pushing the male frangance territory with fleur du male
I agree with hedonist that the cocoa note is very balanced: neither too seeet nor too dry. I like Kokorico, but not quite enough to rush to get a bottle. Although I find the bottle amazing!
Kurt smells like Teen Spirit

Can eclipse do this? If so, how?
Yes, you need to select each device in the DDMS perspective to get the LogCat output from the relevant device because that window is on a per device basis, but other than that there's nothing preventing you from debugging multiple instances at once.

Nikon Coolpix A lens review: High performance, compact sizeBy David Newton - Tuesday May 14 2013 Lens Review
It seems that every passing month brings a new compact camera to the market, featuring a large sensor and the promise of higher image quality than its peers. However, while the sensor is often the star of the show, the lens is just as important and can make or break the performance of the camera. The Nikon Coolpix A is one of this new breed of large sensor compact cameras, and just a few years ago it would have seemed a most unlikely proposition. However, as technology has improved, costs have come down and it is now possible to fit large sensors in small cameras at a reasonable cost, but this does mean the lenses have to improve in tandem or they risk damaging the great work done by the sensor engineers.

Nikon Coolpix A lens versus competition
Further readings for the Nikon Coolpix A lens review: High performance, compact size
To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.
Launched in March 2013 the $1097 Coolpix A is Nikon's first compact camera with an APC-S sensor and features the same 16.2-megapixel DX sensor from Nikon's D7000 DSLR but with its optical low-pass filter removed. Utilizing a fixed NIKKOR 18.5mm f/2.8 prime lens (equivalent to 28mm in 35mm terms) the Nikon Coolpix A has the right ingredients for great image quality so let's see how it performs.

Nikon VS Ricoh

Why f2.8?
Is there a reason why both the Nikon Coolpix A and Ricoh GR both have relatively slow f2.8 lenses?
Just asking because the Fujifilm X100S has an f2.0 lens. So does the Sony RX1. The Sony RX100 has an even faster f1.8 mounted on it.
How does the Coolpix A / Ricoh GR plan to compete with compacts that have much faster lenses?

Re: Why f2.8?
Good question, we cannot answer for Nikon, but we can assume that they try to find a compromise between brightness and compactness. Providing a wider aperture usually leads to bigger lens.
We did not evaluate the X100s and the RX100 but you can compare the CoolpixA vs RX1

Nikon Coolpix A vs. Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100
Wondering how this lens compares to the one mounted on the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100. The two cameras have a near-identical size. Both are just pocketable, which renders them to be used at similar occasions.
- The Coolpix A's sensor is 3x the size = 1.5 stops of advantage over the RX100. (Both have Sony sensors of the same generation, so we can assume the same ability to capture light given per sensor surface area.)
- The RX100 has an f1.8 lens = 1.3 stops advantage over the Coolpix A
That should equal slight advantage Nikon with regards to low-light performance. But the Sony has a zoom lens = more versatility.
In my limited experience with the Coolpix A, it's AF is quite (read VERY) slow compared to the RX100's. Forget about shooting action with the Coolpix A. (Please do correct me if I'm wrong on this. I only tried one at B&H.)
Wondering how much sharper the Nikon's images may be. The pictures coming out of my RX100 are not exactly super sharp even in the center.
Any views?

What would be the antonym of the expression "landed with a thud"? I've seen it in the context of "a new product landed with a thud, attracting very few customers".
Sign up
- Anybody can ask a question

- The best answers are voted up and rise to the top
In this specific context I would suggest "landed with a splash" or (better) "made a splash" as an antonym.
However, this is a metaphorical use of "landed with a thud" which means something almost the opposite of what you would expect from the literal meaning. My suggestions don't apply to more general or literal uses of the phrase. If you really want to talk about an object not making a great deal of noise as it hits the ground, try "landed lightly" or "landed like a cat".
(Having said that, any cat owner will tell you that cats land with an enormous thud. Particularly if they are jumping off a high shelf onto your bed. While you are still in it.)
I'd understand "landed with a thud" in this context as, "the product was a spectacular flop". Antonym would be "it soared high".
"Launched successfully" is the usage I'm used to hearing in Silicon Valley.

6 Movie Guardians Who Shouldn't Be Allowed Near Children
Nobody wants to watch a Harry Potter movie where it's just a bunch of kids quietly going to class every day. You need an attempted wizard assassination every year to keep things interesting. We understand that.
But sometimes you see a movie where the kids wind up in dire circumstances for no reason other than that the grown-ups just don't seem to give a shit. Grown-ups like ...
#6. Cole's Mother - The Sixth Sense
Cole Sear (Haley Joel Osment) is having a pretty tough time. It seems that he is a little too popular with dead people and their stupid dead-people problems. Cole's mother, Lynn, doesn't realize this, nor would we when we first watched this movie if the trailer hadn't already told us.
Don't even pretend any part of this entry is a spoiler.
After all, nobody can see the dead but Cole, so as far as the world is concerned, the kid is just a constantly tense, antisocial and frightened young boy who occasionally enjoys writing horrible things in crazy scribbles on paper, lying about stealing, screaming at teachers and wearing his dead father's wristwatch and reading glasses sans the lenses.
The first hipster.
So it only makes sense when psychiatrist Malcolm Crowe (Bruce Willis) comes lurking around to try to help Cole deal with whatever the hell is making him so creepy.
During the film, Malcolm finds out about Cole's problem with the dead, and helps him slowly learn to deal with it by listening to what they have to say as opposed to freaking out all the time. He even escorts Cole on a bus to a girl's funeral, where he helps the little dead girl put her mother in jail for poisoning her. In the end, Cole finally 'fesses up to his mother and starts to heal psychologically.
Oh, and Bruce Willis is really dead the whole time, which you probably already knew and if you didn't, then ... well, you don't exist. Anyway this twist that everyone loved so dearly masked a pretty important detail in this film: If Bruce Willis was dead, then as far as Cole's mother knows, he never got any help with his psychological issues.
Ah, this kid's got nothing a little Ritalin can't fix.
Lynn could not see Bruce Willis. She did not know this ghost was helping her son through his crippling emotional problems. She watched her kid this whole time screaming at birthday parties, writing weird shit, acting constantly tense and getting hospitalized and she didn't do a single goddamned thing. During Cole's stay at the hospital, she is actually told by a doctor there that the boy needs help. And still she does shit. Seriously, watch the film and mentally remove Bruce Willis, and you see that this kid is left to twist in the wind.
All those times when we see Cole walking down the street, taking the bus to the funeral and being greeted after school by Malcolm, he is actually doing those things with nobody. Nobody actually saw him perform in the school play, nobody came to see him after he got called a freak by his teacher at school, nobody escorted him on the bus to some random neighborhood to some random funeral.
To the rest of the world -- and his mom -- he was just some kid walking around and talking to himself. Lynn needs to thank her lucky stars that Cole's ghost friend happened to be real and happened to be a child psychiatrist, because otherwise, well, we know the alternative ...
Cole, 15 years later.
#5. Russell's Mother - Up
Right away you know someone has to suck pretty damn hard to be on a list like this when you don't even remember them being in the movie. But in this case, that's kind of the point.
The film is the heartwarming tale of old man Carl Fredericksen's international adventure in his balloon house. But along for the ride is Russell, a young Boy Scout who got stuck in the flying house by accident before it took off.
Real Boy Scouts spend more time in minivans than farcical balloon houses.
Russell's mother is seen only in one shot of the film -- at the very end, when (spoiler!) everything has turned out OK, Carl and Russell have become good friends and Carl is presenting the kid with a merit badge. She's briefly seen happily applauding.
Probably because her soul wasn't weighed down by the saddest montage of all time.
What's wrong with that? Let's recap the sequence of events that brought her there:
First, little Russell is going door-to-door at a construction zone, where he meets an old man who is being put in a nursing home because of an assault charge. He gets kidnapped by the old man (accidentally at first, but the old man could have landed and let the kid go home, and he chose not to) and taken to South America for about a week. There he gets chased and nearly ripped apart by a pack of dogs, almost falls to his death more times than one can count, helps hijack a zeppelin and watches a man fall to his death. He then returns home in the stolen zeppelin with the old man and the pack of dogs that had tried to kill him earlier, covered in scratches and bruises.
And this is her reaction:
Yeah. That's her clapping and smiling like a putz instead of crying and calling the police. Did she not notice her son was missing all that time? You can't even argue that this scene happens long after everything got cleared up, because Russell clearly hasn't even cleaned himself up yet.
In fact, Russell's mom doesn't seem concerned about that, either. No one has even attempted to wipe his face! Is something broken? Is he bleeding? Why is there a giant zeppelin outside? Who knows! YAY YOU GOT A BADGE!
And then, in the closing credits montage we find out that Russell is allowed to keep hanging out with the crazy old man who previously kidnapped him, and his huge-ass flying balloon. Hey, why not? The old man has shown himself to be totally trustworthy and completely unwilling to put the child in danger. Way to parent!
#4. Cobb - Inception
We have previously mentioned the way Inception conveniently forgets about the murderous corporation that's after Leo DiCaprio's character (Dom Cobb) and how at the end of the film he basically leads them right to his children's door. But his failures as a parent start long before that.
"Go play on that hill in the vague distance, kids. Daddy has to sit in the dark and think."
To recap, the entire plot of Inception is set into motion by Cobb's motivation to get back home to his children, whom he cannot see because he is wanted for the murder of his wife back in the States. It is his love for them that drives him as he does one last and most difficult job in order for his employer to work his magic and get all the charges dropped so that Cobb can finally get back through U.S. customs and see his kids. No idea why his kids can't just come to him, but we'll just let that go.
What's important is that Cobb pretty much risks his sanity, freedom and life to see these two rug rats -- and when all is said and done, he finally returns home exonerated and free of the guilt he had about his wife, who had committed suicide because of an idea he planted in her head that the real world was, in fact, not real.
To achieve the same effect in your own head, take 30 hits of acid and call us when the ceiling fan stops screaming at you.
In the end, we see Cobb reunite with his children in their home, and the famous ending with the spinning top.
But that brings us to the problem at hand: The ending shot of this film stirred up so many questions for the audience as to whether Cobb was dreaming that people forgot that this was exactly the point -- the shot symbolizes doubt. The doubt that Mal, Cobb's wife, felt that made her accuse her kids of not being real and that eventually drove her to suicide. The same doubt that made Cobb sit with a gun to his head watching a spinning top, hoping to hell that it would stop. The doubt that actually at no point ever gets resolved.
So Michael Caine's ancient ass can handle a flight to the U.S., but Cobb's kids can't stand a few hours in ultra-first class?
Remember, the confrontation with his wife in limbo was about absolving himself of guilt over her death, not fixing the dozens of other issues tormenting him day to day as a result of his work. Our point is, Cobb is still a psychological and emotional wreck.
And now imagine that you're his kid.
First of all, it must be a bit difficult to have a dad who isn't exactly 100 percent on whether the world around him is real. Hell, he wouldn't even be sure whether you were real.
"Hey. Dad. Do you know where the cerea- oh ... never mind ... I can see you're busy ..."
Then you're going to have to deal with people around town telling you that your dad murdered your mom; even though Cobb got the charges dropped through some under-the-table deal, that doesn't stop people from talking. And what about when the kids are old enough to ask Dad what happened to Mom? What is Leo going to say that doesn't sound like the ravings of a madman?
Seriously, why would anyone want to put Cobb near children? Wait a second -- why did Cobb and Mal even think that having children was a good idea? They had the kids after they spent their decades in limbo, right? While she was having all of her weird doubts about reality? And his job required him to keep a small object in his pocket to keep track of whether or not he was in a dream?
"Alright kids! We're either going to McDonald's, or huddling in the closet with a loaded gun. It all depends on whether this top tips over."
What chance did those kids have of not winding up in an institution some day?

Dayton has been a stronghold for family medicine for many years. The department has a track record of attracting medical students to family medicine and delivering on the mission to serve the community. These efforts have been recognized nationally.
These are exciting times for family medicine and primary care. The Supreme Courts upholding of the Affordable Care Act underlines the need for more family medicine physicians, especially in underserved areas and allows us to continue to care for Ohio residents who have gone without healthcare or preventive care for long periods.
The Wright State University Family Medicine Residency Program attracts top notch students from Wright State and the wider United States. Many graduating residents practice locally. Faculty and residents lead at the local, state and national level. Melanie Raffoul, M.D., chief resident, was awarded the prestigious Robert L. Phillips Jr. Health Policy Fellowship for 2014-15, a joint research and clinical fellowship program between the Robert Graham Center for Policy Studies in Family Medicine and Primary Care and Georgetown University. Lara Ilyas, M.D., received an STFM/NIDA Training Award in Substance Abuse and Addiction for 2014-15. The award is funded by a partnership between the Society of Teachers of Family Medicine (STFM) and the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) that supports the development of expertise in substance abuse and addiction within academic family medicine.
Faculty and residents care for patients in two sites: the Wright State Physicians Health Center, located on the WSU campus, and the Five Rivers Family Health Center, a federally qualified health center near Good Samaritan Hospital in Dayton. Medical students spend clerkship time and electives at both. In 2012, the Ohio Department of Health TransforMED partnership selected both clinical sites to reconfigure as patient-centered medical homes and model team-based care. In 2014, Lisa Kellar, M.D., associate professor of family medicine, received national funding to improve influenza and pneumococcal vaccine rates in patients who are 65 and older at Five Rivers Family Health Center and in the surrounding community.
Under new leadership, the department has expanded its commitment to a mission of excellent patient care, teaching, research and service to the community. We value our relationships with our patients, students and colleagues in these efforts. We hold the stories of the patients we care for and the students we teach walking alongside them through the inevitable ups and downs of the journey. We are excited to welcome more family physicians who will be leaders in caring for our communities in the 21st century.
Department Vision
Preparing tomorrow's family physicians to enhance the health and well-being of the communities they serve by defining and providing state-of-the art healthcare.
Department Mission
To lead the way in educating the next generation of physicians, by
- Modeling the patient-centered principles of family medicine,
- Serving our community's health needs, and
- Contributing to the scholarly advancement of medicine

The Passing of an icon
You know every morning I usually wake up with a smile on my face and this moring was no different. That was until I turned on the news and saw that one of my heroes has passed away. George Carlin was to me one of the best comedians I had ever seen. His brash style of comedy always made me laugh. He was truly what I would call a thinking mans comic. I had the chance to meet him one time and it is a meeting that I shall never forget. I have been a fan every since the Hippy Dippy weatherman came out. Whether you agreed with him or not George was in every since of the word a comedian. He made you think, he made you laugh, and he made you question what is really right in the world. I for one will miss George, and you just know that right now he is making those in heaven laugh and feel just a little uncomfortable. Thanks George, its been an honor to have been in your audience.

The information should load as fast as possible. the important thing is while they are waiting for the real action you should give them some "loading..." sign so the user knows that the action worked. It's really annoying to click a link and not see anything happen.
If the request is synchronous, it should take no longer than a couple of seconds, or the user will wonder what is wrong as the UI freezes. If you can use asynchronous requests, show a "loading" screen and progressively update the UI as soon as data come in, a longer loading time is probably okay.

The assumption that all existence claims are questions about matters of fact, the assumption that all of these [existence claims] are answered in the very same way is not only over simplified and misleading, it is simply mistaken. The existence, factuality or reality of different kinds of things is not established or disconfirmed in the same way in every case.
We might ask, "Is there a box of crackers in the pantry?" And we know how we would go about answering that question. But that is a far, far cry from the way we go about answering questions determining the reality of say, barometric pressure, quasars, gravitational attraction, elasticity, radio activity, natural laws, names, grammar, numbers, the university itself that you're now at, past events, categories, future contingencies, laws of thought, political obligations, individual identity over time, causation, memories, dreams, or even love or beauty. In such cases, one does not do anything like walk to the pantry and look inside for the crackers. There are thousands of existence or factual questions, and they are not at all answered in the same way in each case.

A little boy's world is a new place for me to be. Trucks, tools and Batman are all pretty new to me.
I grew up with Barbie. I knew everything about Barbie. I probably had more than 75 at one time or another. There was Pretty in Pink Barbie, Malibu Barbie, Day and Night Barbie, Peaches and Cream Barbie and Western Barbie, just to name a few.
I had a McDonald's, a horse trailer and two horses (Dallas and Midnight), a Corvette and a swing set, all for Barbie and her friends.
Sure, my little brother had boys' toys like the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and the Ghostbusters.
But it wasn't the same. I didn't have to play with them like I do now. My brother played by himself. Little Man does too, for a little while. But then he wants Mommy to play, too.
My world is full of boys' toys.
Now, we have more than 100 monster trucks. We have a garbage truck, fire truck and dump truck that talk and dance and interact with you.
My husband made Little Man his own garage to keep all his vehicles, and they still don't all fit inside.
We have a tool bench and all sorts of tools to go with it - hammers, screwdrivers, wrenches. And those are just the ones I recognize. We have a chain saw that he wants to use to really cut wood. When it wouldn't, he wanted the blade sharpened and was disappointed when it still didn't cut wood like Daddy's did.
We just recently got into Batman and friends. Santa brought the Bat cave and Bat mobile. Our friends from Akron bought him the Penguin mobile (Penguin included) and Spiderman's home. His Nana and Pappy got him the Gotham jail and Joker mobile (Joker included). The jail even has cells with the bad guys' pictures on them. And, of course, there are four cells, and we only have two of the bad guys. Now we are in need of the other two (surprise, surprise.)
Santa also brought a Little Mechanic's engine. It is an engine that you take apart and put back together again. Little Man is very good at it. When I tried once, he told me that I couldn't do it because I was a girl. I got it together, but he said it wasn't right because the tires fell off, which they did.
And it's true when the say "the only difference between the men and the boys is the size of their feet and the price of their toys."
Little Man has his eye on a remote controlled truck because the four that we have aren't enough.
He wants a battery-powered four-wheeler in blue, since the red one we have isn't good enough. He wants some ride-on toy that he saw at the store, because the tractor and the Gator aren't enough. How many butts does the child have to ride with?
And now we are on the verge of bringing another little boy home.
Just when I thought we had had enough trucks

WACO (January 3, 2013)--A Waco man was sentenced to federal prison Thursday after he earlier pleaded guilty to selling methamphetamine near a local middle school campus.
U.S. District Judge Walter S. Smith, Jr., sentenced Michael Edward Salazar, 34, to 188 months in prison, to be followed by 6 years on supervised release, and ordered payment of a $1,000 fine and $100 in special assessment to the court.
Court documents presented at Salazar's plea hearing on Nov. 1, 2012, show that on Aug. 24, 2012, Waco police drug enforcement officers served a search warrant at a residence in south Waco.
As officers served the warrant they saw a man run from the back of the residence and observed the man throw down what officers believed to be a baggie of methamphetamine.
The man continued to run and jumped a fence where officers caught up with him.
After he was apprehended, officers found $500 in cash in his pockets.
During the search of the residence officers found a small amount of methamphetamine on the kitchen counter top right next to the backdoor out of which the man ran.
They also located scales and Baggies with the corners torn out of them, lying next to the scales.
Officers also seized a cell phone and observed drug related text messages on it.
The residence searched is within 1000 feet of University Middle School.

If one has $100 to give to charity, is it better to give it all to one person, or distribute $1 to 100 people (so that if one isn't legit, the others will cover)?
Sign up
- Anybody can ask a question

- The best answers are voted up and rise to the top
From here (based on Maimonides Commentary on the Mishnah, Avot 3:15) :
I just found this story about a Chassid who, when asked for charity, would always give it in two parts, so that he could fight his inclination twice for every time he gave charity.
I'm less concerned about "if one isn't legit"; a better argument is that you've done the mitzva of tzedaka one-hundred times, which may have more of a positive effect on you than one large donation.
Usually the overhead is such that recipients do far better with a few larger donations; on the other hand, there may be numerous causes, and the argument above. So I think it all depends on the situation and the person.
The story is told of a fellow going off to WWII; he asked Rabbi Naftali Riff of Camden, NJ for a bracha. Rabbi Riff asked him for a $100 donation. What Rabbi Riff then did was send a $10 donation to a different organization every six weeks or so, so the soldier got a thank-you letter every so often from different Jewish organizations! That helped keep his spirits up.
I understand that you're coming from the standpoint of meshullachim in shul who come asking for whatever you can give, or also someone begging on the street for whatever he can get.
When you have your option of charity organizations (local or far away) to give to, then legitimacy usually isn't a concern.
When someone comes up to you with a specific request, then you can usually find a particular dollar amount that will fill that person's need. You should try to fulfill as many people's needs as possible. If someone comes to you asking for $100, and you have $100 to give, then you shouldn't decide instead to give $1 to each of 100 people. The person who asked for $100 may not find someone else to give him the remaining $99.

Recommended IMAP client settings
All IMAP clients differ, and you can configure your mail client's settings to best suit your needs. However, to work optimally with Gmail, we recommend certain settings. Click on your client below to view our recommended configuration.iPhone
From your mail account's Advanced Settings:
Deleted Mailbox > On My iPhone > Trash
Deleted Messages > Remove > Never
With these settings, messages deleted from the web interface will show up only under your [Gmail]/Trash folder. In addition, messages trashed from the iPhone will show up under your iPhone Trash folder and your [Gmail]/All Mail folder.
Note: If you're using an iPhone with software update 1.1.3 or later and you automatically configured IMAP by tapping the large Gmail icon in Mail, messages trashed from your iPhone will be moved to the [Gmail]/Trash folder rather than the [Gmail]/All Mail folder, where these messages are set to be permanently deleted after 30 days. For more information, please see our article on deleting and archiving on iPhones or visit Apple Support.
To avoid this type of deletion behavior, please manually configure your iPhone.
From the Tools menu, select Account Settings and highlight your Gmail address.

If you're not using one of the above listed clients, as a general rule, we suggest the following settings:
- Do not save sent messages on the server. If your client is sending mail through Gmail's SMTP server, your sent messages will be automatically copied to the [Gmail]/Sent Mail folder.
- DO save draft messages on the server. If you want your drafts in your mail client to sync correctly with Gmail's web interface, set your client to save drafts to the [Gmail]/Drafts folder.
- Do not save deleted messages on the server. Messages that are deleted from an IMAP folder (except for those in [Gmail]/Spam or [Gmail]/Trash) only have that label removed and still exist in All Mail. Hence, your client doesn't need to store an extra copy of a deleted message.
- Do not save deleted messages to your [Gmail]/Trash folder because this will delete a message in all folders.
- Do not save deleted messages to your [Gmail]/All Mail folder as some clients will try to empty this folder and ultimately fail. This can lead to delayed mail access or excessive battery consumption on a mobile device.
Junk mail and spam:
- Do not enable your client's junk mail filters. Gmail's spam filters also work in your IMAP client, and we recommend turning off any additional anti-spam or junk mail filters within your client. Your client's filter will attempt to download and classify all of your existing messages, which may slow down your client until the process is complete.

When I go to, for example, a museum I try to take some pictures.
Sometimes the museum staffs forbid me to use a flash. Do you know the reason? I don't think it is related to photo-electric effect, right?
When I go to, for example, a museum I try to take some pictures.
Sometimes the museum staffs forbid me to use a flash. Do you know the reason? I don't think it is related to photo-electric effect, right?
From Amateur Photographers in Art Galleries: Assessing the harm done by flash photography. by Martin H. Evans:
So it appears to me the main reason for the ban is not related to the photoelectric effect.
My local museum prohibits flash photography because other people in the museum find it annoying. It's nothing to do with any effect, real or imagined, that the flash may have on the exhibits.
Many organic pigments are slowly destroyed by light, so colours fade if exposed to light. I suppose in some special cases museums might be concerned about this. In some museums illustrated manuscripts are exhibited in rooms that are kept at low light levels - I seem to remember the Book of Kells in the Dublin Trinity Museum is exhibited in this way. I can understand why flash photography is banned in those cases.
Yes, as you guessed it is related to the photoelectric effect. The photons from the flash, certain frequencies there, can change the molecular composition of the surface paints and pigments.
The precaution is the same as in avoiding a valuable painting or rug to be illuminated by the sun. It is the photoelectric effect.
It really does depend on the place.
As user9886 explained, the main reason is probably not physical. There are indeed cases where strong flashes can damage pigments that are fairly stable in daylight. I know that some modern documents use rhodopsin based ink that makes it impossible to use an ordinary photocopier to copy them without destroying them. I'm not sure if there are a lot of historically used pigments that are similarly senitive.
The main other reasons are simply:
It's actually astonishing to see how damage much a camera flash can do to black/dark colored objects!
This is a pretty good demonstration.
So, I imagine that if a photographer takes a picture with a powerful flash gun close to a black object (e.g. a dark painting) it could cause the painting to undergo combustion and get irreversibly damaged. It makes sense why most museums and galleries are paranoid about such occurrences.

As predicted by the National Hurricane Center, Sandy has strengthened to become a category 2 hurricane. In the 12:30am Eastern Advisory, the storm was now producing strong, damaging winds of 110 miles per hour, just 30 miles to the south of Santiago de Cuba. These reports come from a Air Force Reserve Reconaissance flight. Forecasters also stress that it could become even stronger.

As of 11pm Eastern Time, Hurricane Sandy was approaching the Southeastern Coast of Cuba.
Hurricane Warnings are in effect for Jamaica, numerous Cuban provinces and parts of the Bahamas. Tropical Storm Warnings are in effect for Haiti, the Florida East Coast from Ocean Reef to the Sebastian Inlet and Lake Okeechobee. Tropical Storm Watches include other parts of Florida.
The storm has picked up speed since Tuesday and is moving to the north at 13 miles per hour. It is expected to continue moving northward today.
As of the most recent advisory, the storm was packing sustained winds of 90 miles per hour. However, forecasters with the National Hurricane Center note that more strengthening could be possible, bringing the storm to Category 2 strength by Thursday. The Hurricane-force winds extend up to 30 miles from the center of Sandy, the Tropical Storm-force winds up to 140 miles outward.
These winds, in addition to dangerous surf and waves, flooding rain and the threat of isolated tornadoes will come to Cuba, Jamaica, and the Bahamas. There could be some effects, of a lesser nature, for the far southeastern Florida coast.

I find that I often wake up at a decent time, but don't get out of bed immediately. This results in me falling asleep again for another hour. This process might repeat itself once or twice, resulting in anywhere from 1 to 3 hours of extra unnecessary sleep, when I could've been getting things done.
This doesn't happen if I need to wake up to be somewhere - it's only because I have a flexible schedule.
How can one break this habit?

text: America's Best Dance Crew judge Lil Mama, of VMA stage crashing fame, has become known for delivering heartfelt critiques to the contestants. At times, they're a source of inspiration. Other times—or really, most of the time—she butchers the English language, leaving one dumfounded at the degree to which words can be mispronounced and expressions can be misspoken on television. Here's a "Best of the Worst" compilation of Lil Mama's six seasons on the show.
