Double cell shades offer maximum insulation. Light filtering or blackout fabrics provide privacy and light control choices in a wide array of colors, textures and even patterns.

"Trouble-free shades"
By Carol from MI
I love your company! I have had nothing but problems with Hunter Douglas blinds. And I spent a fortune on them. The designers/interior decorators can have them - I'm sticking with Blindsgalore.View this product
"Great Blinds"
By NYCfam from NYC
The blinds are beautiful & feel very substantial. Much less expensive then the brand I replaced them with and seem of equal quality. Easy install. Quick shipping.View this product

Running a Locked cmd.exe
*-This actually isn't written by me. It was written by a guy by the name of CamoDeveloper in my RSTips forums. I just wanted to share it here.
Well, I had to do this earlier today actually. I was at the library and was bored so I decided to have a little fun with Windows XP. They have a fairly cheap administrator tool on the computers, I just wanted to see how cheap. So, for starters you can't even use the "Run" tool or view the C: drive, but can access it if you use cmd.exe, the only problem is that they blocked it. So, how to get around that? Here's two fairly easy ways.
First Way
- Open up 'Notepad' or a similar text editor.
- Type in "start" with no quotations.
- Save it as a .bat file. i.e. fakecmd.exe
- Double-click it to run.
Second Way
- Open up your text editor.
- Put the following:
@echo off command comand.com pause
- Save it as a .bat file
- Double-click it, and voila!
Anyway, that's about it, enjoy.

The 7 Most Horrifying Things Ever Discovered in a Human Body
Most experienced surgeons and doctors will say they've seen it all. Most surgery is fairly routine, and it's only occasionally that you slice somebody open and some really crazy shit pops out.
Have we found you a list of some of the craziest shit? Why, yes.
#7. A Giant Hairball
In 2007, an 18-year-old woman entered the Rush University Medical Center in Chicago complaining of stomach pains, vomiting and an inexplicable loss of 40 pounds. Losing that kind of weight all at once usually means you've had a limb amputated, or recently gave birth to a full-grown midget.
Rarely, it's a quatto.
An x-ray was taken, and they found a "large, dark mass," which ranks up there with "colony of spiders" in the list of phrases you are least happy to hear after a medical examination.
When they operated to remove what they assumed was a tumor, they instead pulled out a 10-pound hairball. Yes. A ball of hair. It was over a foot long.
We can only speculate that this must have led to the most awkward post-op interview in history.
Basically, Cousin Itt was living in their stomach
But Could it Happen to Me?
Turns out the young woman, whose name has not been released (we don't blame her) suffers from trichophagia. That means she eats her hair. A lot, apparently.
And while we all do a bit of hair-chewing and nail-nibbling from time to time, few of us realize that all this indigestible detritus that we gnaw off our bodies can wind up lodged in our digestive tracts, steadily growing in size year after year until it looks like a furry chestburster.
Damn you furry chestburster!
There are even medical records of something called Rapunzel syndrome, when the hairball snakes its way through your intestines and, oh God stop.
It's a hair-poop.
#6. Brain Worm
Let's say you think you have a brain tumor. If the doc comes back and says it's not a tumor, what's the one thing that would make the lack of a tumor bad news?
Ask Rosemary Alvarez. She was worried about a brain tumor when she checked into an Arizona hospital complaining about numbness and blurred vision. Naturally, they cracked her head open and started rummaging around in there.
What they found actually made the surgeon chuckle to himself, which is the last thing you want to hear from a guy up to his wristwatch in your grey matter.
He later said that he laughed because he was relieved to find out that there was actually nothing wrong with her. Oh, besides the giant worm that had burrowed into her brainstem.
"Hahaha! Classic." - Dr. Chucklecutter.
But Could it Happen to Me?
Rather than some nefarious mind-control parasite from beyond the Moon, Mrs. Alverez's cerebral hitchhiker was actually a common tapeworm. The most frightening thing about this story is how it got inside her head.
The usual way of picking up a tapeworm is by eating undercooked pork squirming with worm larvae, which is terrifyingly common enough. But a tapeworm's favorite place to live is inside your intestines. The only way that you can get a worm in your brain, for some reason, is by ingesting human fecal matter.
Since Mrs. Alverez doesn't look like the type to be involved in some kind of fringe fetish porn production, she almost certainly picked up the unorthodox dietary supplement from a disgruntled chef or a Subway "sandwich artist" who didn't wash his hands.
This entry brought to you by Quizno's. Tapeworm free since 2004.
And, without making this worse than it already is, it's our duty to inform you that this is something that happens a fair bit.. If you thought the worst thing you could get from that unhygienic curry restaurant could be cured with some Tums, you're either vastly over estimating the active ingredients in Tums, or vastly underestimating the Lovecraftian horrors can both hide in your food and nest in your brain.
#5. A Foot-long Surgical Implement
When 57-year-old Daryoush Mazarei experienced severe pain after an intensive operation, doctors immediately booked him in for an emergency CT sca- no, wait, they just told him to stop making shit up.
"I'm going to prescribe you a pair of nuts, crybaby."
Mazarei had undergone an operation to install a shunt that would allow fluid to drain from his brain and, two years later, he never felt fully recovered. Although in chronic discomfort and pain, Mazarei was told repeatedly that nothing was physically wrong with him and prompted to seek psychiatric treatment. His doctors even went so far as to cite the story of the boy who cried wolf, even though his daughter was able to point to a hard foreign object that was clearly poking out from inside him.
"What? That's a medicinal arrow."
Presumably finally fed up with the man's constant complaining, Mazarei's doctors gave him a CT scan, on which they could see a large object located in his abdomen. After reopening the patient's abdominal cavity, surgeons found a set of retractors that had been accidentally left inside the man during the last surgery.
Retractors are just doctor jargon for big ass tweezers, which were probably thrown into the man in disgust after one of the doctors got frustrated trying to pull out the spare ribs.
Johnson, hand me the tweezers. This man has a serious case of butterflies in his stomach.
How big were these "bigass" tweezers? Almost 10-freaking-inches long. And nobody noticed they were in there when they were sewing him up.
But Could it Happen to Me?
The bad news is this shit happens all the time. Despite stringent measures taken during surgery, like counting all the equipment before and after to see if the tally matches, surgeons just can't seem to stop leaving their forceps, scalpels and wedding rings inside their patients.
One study states that 722 objects were stitched inside people in a single year in England. Then again, that's England. In the States, the situation isn't quite that retarded, but we still found reports ranging around 22 a year in Utah, and 80 in Philadelphia. Hospitals seem fairly nonchalant about it, probably because it seems like a small number compared to the huge amount of surgeries that go on.
But just think about it: There are 80 people walking around Philly right now with a stethoscope lodged in their pancreas, because some doc lost it in all the excitement.
#4. Man Fetus
Growing up in Nagpur, India, Sanju Bhagat was often ridiculed for his abnormally large stomach. We all know how it is--kids can be cruel, especially when you're a man who has looked pregnant his entire life. It's kind of a horrifying irony that it was ultimately discovered he had been pregnant his entire life. Sort of.
Enjoy, ladies.
He finally did something about his situation one night when he was rushed to the hospital with shortness of breath and severe pain. When the doctors attempted to remove what they assumed was a tumor, they were mildly shocked to find... Wait, seriously?
...a partially formed fetus. Holy shit, that's like a scene from a freaking John Carpenter movie. Except like 10 times worse.
Maybe not 10 times.
One doctor's natural reaction was apparently to shake hands with the abomination, which had limbs, hair and genitalia.
But Could it Happen to Me?
Luckily, there are fewer than 90 cases of this in recorded medical history, but we still think that's about 100 too many. It's called fetus in fetu, and it basically means that Bhagat had a twin inside the womb who he absorbed like an in-vitro caged death match.
Apparently, as in this case, the parasitic fetus will sometimes feed off the host until "doctors are forced to intervene." As though having some kind of unborn demonspawn leeching off your life force from the inside wouldn't be your highest priority under any imaginable circumstance.

Have I forgotten all my secondary-school geometry?
(That's not actually my question.)
Suppose $R>r>0$ and consider this circle
(later edit: I think $R>0$, $r>0$ is enough; we don't really need $R>r.$ end of later edit) $$ (x-R)^2 + z^2 = r^2 $$ in the $xz$-plane. For any point $p$ on the circle, draw the line through $p$ and the origin $(x,z)=(0,0)$, intersecting the circle at a second point $q$. Thus $p\mapsto q$ is a sort of projection, with the center of projection at the origin. Let $dp/dq$ denote (OK, slightly odd notation here since $p$ and $q$ are not scalars) the ratio of rates of motion of $p$ and $q$ as $p$, and hence also $q$, move along their circular arcs.
If I'm not mistaken, the following differential equation is satisfied: $$ \frac{dp}{dq} = \frac{x\text{-coordinate of }p}{x\text{-coordinate of }q}. $$ Is this
- a known result in the sense of being in all the books, for suitable values of "all"; or
- a known result in the sense that any fool would "recall" it if the occasion arose (e.g. like $19\times23=437$); or
- other (specify).
(A bit of a vague question maybe, but some smart people here can sometimes survive that.)
(BTW, if you like circles, check this out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_circle_topics)

An irregular air traveler (1-2x/year) who feels entitled to use first class and premium check-in counters, attempts to board during first class or elite boarding groups. Kettles are often oblivious to boundaries such as curtains separating first class from main cabin, or by crowding around Priority boarding lanes to prevent premium customers from accessing them.

Police officers illegally kettled peaceful climate activists at the G20 protests in 2009 to stop their gathering being "hijacked" by violent protesters from another demonstration, the high court has heard. --Guardian 23 March 2011

Rural drudges, no class, slovenly, aversive to hard work, dim as a used up bulb. The Kettles were originally a family portrayed in American comic films in the 1940s and '50s (the first was "The Egg And I", portraying life on a chicken / egg farm, the last "The Kettles on Old Macdonald's Farm".) In the first movie, the slow-thinking and lazy Pa and Ma Kettle, with their fifteen children, win a tobacco slogan writing contest and get a modern house with electronic gadgetry they can not fathom. Today, the term is occasionally used to describe an uncouth dufus, a rude lout, someone who completely ignores politeness and common knowledge, someone who might act like an unschooled, ignorant rural clod.
These kettles boarded the plane and proceeded to place their infant in the overhead baggage bin, as he spit tobacco juice on the aisle carpet.

Olive Green Cat ‒ an ode to creative Cape Town
I am often stopped mid-sentence, mid-meeting, mid-shopping, mid-flight and mid-just-about-anything by someone wanting to know where I got my unique wedding ring from. To say that it has become a bit of a talking point is putting it mildly.
I am always only too happy to rave about my favourite Cape Town creatives – Olive Green Cat. Weird name, I know, but it says something about this brilliant design trio: unique, tongue-in-cheek, contemporary, individualist and, above all, passionately Capetonian.
Olive Green Cat is the studio showroom of jewellery designers Ida-elsje, Philippa Green and architect and diamantaire Gregory Katz.
Sandwiched between the Bo-Kaap and Cape Town CBD, Olive Green Cat at 51 Wale Street showcases the trio's talent and its collaborative diamond and resin range, Situ.
Philippa is most famous for her perspex cuffs, which she embellishes with silver strips, stones, beads, buttons and rubber.
She has trained a group of women to hand-sew poetry and protea designs onto the cuffs. Ida-elsje specialises in custom-designed engagement rings and beautiful gold and silver earrings.
Philippa and Ida-elsje both spend their time sourcing unusual pieces from antique markets to set into their jewellery and remodel into bold pieces for fashion shows.
I boast one of Olive Green Cat's Situ wedding rings – a completely innovative way of setting diamonds, where diamonds are suspended inside coloured and clear resin!
The Olive Green Cat showroom and workshop is a crazy, friendly place where visitors are greeted by tail-wagging golden retrievers and beautiful designs are scattered all over the place.
Visitors can see how each piece is made or choose from a selection of contemporary, handmade South African jewellery.
Olive Green Cat is an exciting space, often visited by actors, directors, architects and other creative people.
If you pop in over the next week of two, you will be able to pick up some fabulous designs on sale – pity for you; I have already been there this week and splashed out on some new treasures to show off just why Cape Town is one of the most creative spaces in the world! Must keep the people talking about my jewellery…
Visit Olive Green Cat at: 51 Wale Street in the Cape Town CBD or have an online preview at www.olivegreencat.com or www.situ.co.za.
You can also call Philippa on +27 (0)82 466 8571 or Ida-elsje on +27 (0)82 414 1150.
Happy shopping!

John B. Dicus, Chairman of Capitol Federal Savings Bank, Topeka, announces the forthcoming retirement of executive vice president Larry Brubaker, effective September 30, 2012. "It is with both joy and regret," states Dicus, "that I announce Larry Brubaker will retire from Capitol Federal later this year. Larry nears completion of 41 years with the Bank, serving the past 22 years as executive vice president."
Brubaker joined Capitol Federal in 1971 as a loan officer at the Bank's 95th and Nall office in Overland Park, Kansas. In 1973, he opened the Olathe office at Santa Fe and Birch as vice president-branch manager. In 1982, he was promoted to first vice president-eastern region branch coordinator, and in 1987, he was promoted to senior vice president. When his mentor, Ray Culbertson, retired in 1990, Brubaker was selected to lead Capitol Federal's Johnson County and Lawrence offices as executive vice president-eastern region manager. In 1997, he and his family relocated to Topeka where he accepted the lead position of the Bank's corporate services division, which includes Marketing, Information Technology, Human Resources, Facilities, Capitol Agency and Appraisals.
Brubaker also represented Capitol Federal in the community, serving on several boards and committees for organizations. Among them are Midland Care Hospice, TPAC, Stormont-Vail Foundation, Olathe Health Services, Olathe Medical Center, Rotary Club, Downtown Topeka, Inc., Chambers of Commerce and the United Way. He truly lives Capitol Federal's belief in "Commitment to Community", sharing his knowledge as he mentors with future leaders.
"The Capitol Federal board of directors and employees congratulate Larry on his retirement," continued Dicus, "and we extend our sincere appreciation for his 41 years of service to the Bank and its customers. Well respected by his peers and co-workers, his leadership qualities, shared throughout many areas and aspects of the Bank, proved invaluable to Capitol Federal, its employees and customers. Larry's experience and excellent knowledge of the banking industry have been vital to the strength and growth of Capitol Federal."
With Brubaker's retirement comes opportunities for others who have been preparing themselves to assume new management responsibilities. Chairman Dicus announces the promotion of first vice president Carl Ricketts to fill the Corporate Services Division position left by Brubaker. Ricketts came to the Bank in 2007 with 25 years' experience in the electric and gas utility industry; the last 12 years in executive management. In 1980 and 1981, respectively, he earned a Bachelor's degree in Accounting and Master's degree in Business Administration from Emporia State University.
Chairman Dicus remarked, "Since joining the Bank, Ricketts has served as Chief Strategic Planning Officer while working for executive vice presidents Larry Brubaker and Kent Townsend. Revealing his leadership qualities, he has worked closely with ALCO members and led the way on several major projects for the Bank, including overseeing the operations of the Stock Information Center during the recent Second-Step Conversion. Having watched him in action, we know the transfer of the Corporate Services Division from Larry into the hands of Carl will be seamless, continuing the Division's tradition of strength and support for the Bank."
Like Brubaker, Ricketts continues Capitol Federal's corporate principle of "Commitment to the Community". He serves on the boards of Midland Care Hospice, Emporia State University Foundation, Emporia State University Business School, and Boys and Girls Club of Lawrence.

Goshala : A Valuable Shelter
'Go' (pronounced 'gau') means cow, and 'shala' means shelter. Until recent times every village in India had a goshala. Even today every villager who can afford it, keeps at least one cow. Some have related the high suicide rates among Indian farmers to the fact that cows are no longer kept by them.
The Indian Cow: A Veritable Treasure House
In India bulls are used for tilling fields and as a means of transport. A whole gamut of activities: agricultural, religious and economic revolve around a cow.
Viewed by Ayurveda, cow milk is both sattvic (of purifying quality) and nutritious. Goshala milk is the healthiest milk available. Usually, store bought 'dairy' milk contains mixtures of milk from various breeds, including buffalo milk, which is high in fat content and tamasic (of lethargic quality). No Hindu ritual (puja) is complete without Panchagavya or the five sacred elements from the cow: milk, clarified butter, curd, urine and dung. While performing homa (fire ritual), native cow's ghee and dung are a must. As Swami Soumyatej puts it, "The purest ghee and dung are necessary for the efficacy of the agnihotra, as this homa is like conducting an experiment in which the results depend on the inputs. Any other cow's ghee and dung will not give the purifying effects."
Cow dung serves priceless functions. For organic farming, manure is the best fertilizer containing natural pesticides. Dried dung cakes are used as fuel for cooking. Cow dung lined on the floor and walls of homes provides thermal insulation in cold weather, shields radiation and repels insects. Mixed in water and applied as thin washes, it works as a good disinfectant. Dung collected in a special vat creates biogas, which may be used to provide a stable source of electricity in villages.
Distilled cow's urine (gomutra) is a miracle medicine that cures a broad spectrum of diseases: from skin disorders to diabetes to cancer. Sri Sri Ayurveda Hospital and Sri Sri Panchakarma have demonstrated the success of Gomutra in curing chronic ailments.
The goshala model is environmentally sustainable and profitable to farmers. Each product of a goshala is valuable and can be sold. Native breeds require a minimal amount of hay fodder, which can easily be procured from the farm as a by-product.
Indigenous Versus Crossbreed
During the 1970's there was an open flood of exotic cows. Crossbred cows were in vogue for their higher milk yields. However, the quality of milk was not kept in mind. Some crucial points were missed: these cows are more susceptible to diseases. The hot, tropical climate of India doesn't suit them. The food is incompatible. Jersey and other crossbreds suffer from gas and diarrhea. They consume great amounts of fodder. As a result they are more expensive to maintain. Besides, they have a short lactation period, after which they are killed for meat. Apart from milk and meat, they make no other contribution.
With a little intelligent manipulation (by selecting the best pedigree) indigenous cows can attain equally high levels of milk production, as has been demonstrated by countries like Brazil and Argentina(which have been importing and breeding Indian cows of pure breed).The best bulls of India, such as the legendary Brahmani bull, can be found there.
Need of the Hour
A goshala is an integral part of an ashram. The Art of Living International Headquarters in Bangalore, Goshala was set up with the aim of preserving pure breeds. From more than a hundred varieties of cows in India there are now only 30 varieties. The Goshala houses over a hundred indigenous cows of different breeds such as the Ongol from Andhra Pradesh, Kangayan from Tamil Nadu, the Gir from Gujarat and the Sahiwal from Punjab.
According to Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, for determining a healthy count for cows, the appropriate ratio is 20 cows per 100 people. Due to cattle not producing high milk yields, they are being slaughtered. This drops the number of cattle, affecting the genetic pool. Soon, there will be only a 5 cow ratio per 100 people. The goshala hopes to reverse this statistic.
Conserving the Indian breeds' germplasm, is something that needs to be taken up with greater dedication. Finding 100% pure bred cows is a difficult task due to so much trans-breeding. The Art of Living goshala also provides a model for reviving and promoting organic, zero budget farming, thereby diverting the Indian farmer from a life of hardship and debt.
There is implicit truth in what the ancient Indian texts say: 'If the cow is kept happy, the land is prosperous and the people are happy.' It is a chain reaction. That's ancient wisdom and The Art of Living is making this wisdom a reality.

08 594 695 80
+46 8 594 695 80
NetApp SANtricity software offers a powerful, intuitive interface for administering NetApp E-Series storage systems.
With NetApp® SANtricity® Storage Manager software, storage administrators can achieve maximum performance and utilization of their storage through extensive configuration flexibility and custom performance tuning. Plus, the software's online administration, advanced data protection features, and extensive diagnostic capabilities keep data always available and fully protected on the storage system.
SANtricity software:
- Simplifies storage management through an easy-to-use intuitive interface with wizards
- Delivers best-in-class reliability with automated features, online configuration options, state-of-the-art RAID, proactive monitoring, and AutoSupport™ capabilities
- Features extended data protection via FC- and IP-based remote mirroring, Dynamic Disk Pools, enhanced Snapshot™ copies, data-at-rest encryption, data assurance to ensure data integrity, and extensive diagnostic capabilities
The following table describes the standard SANtricity software features that are available with every E-Series system.
|Storage administration
|SANtricity Storage Manager software provides management functionality and a graphical representation of the E-Series storage, with an easy-to-use interface for customization and ongoing operations.
|Enterprise Management Window
|The EMW gives a comprehensive view of all E-Series storage systems in the management domain. From the EMW, administrators can add and remove hosts and storage systems, monitor the health of the storage and report its high-level status, configure alert notifications, run scripts to perform batch management tasks, and launch the applicable Array Management Window for a selected storage system to perform detailed configuration and management operations.
|Array Management Window
|Each individual storage system is managed through a dedicated Array Management Window. The AMW is used to configure and reconfigure volumes (including attributes such as size, name, modification priority, cache settings, and segment size), define hosts and host groups, grant host or host group access to sets of volumes (called storage partitions), monitor the health of system components, view the Event Log and storage profile, assign hot spares, and monitor storage system performance.
|Automatic Tiering
|Intelligent cache tiering, using the SSD Cache feature, enhances performance and application response time by leveraging the superior performance of SSD media for the most frequently accessed blocks of data. There is nothing to manage using the SSD Cache feature, because the caching is data-driven in real time; users are not required to set up complicated policies to define the trigger for data movement between tiers. SSD Cache accelerates data access through the caching use of solid state disks located in the drive trays to enhance performance and is expandable up to 5TB per storage system.
|High Availability
|I/O path protection
|I/O path protection offers load balancing and multipath capabilities for path failover in the event of a connection, HBA, or server failure.
|Online administration
|All management tasks can be performed while the storage remains online with complete read/write data access. This allows storage administrators to make configuration changes, conduct maintenance (including firmware upgrades), or expand the storage capacity without disrupting I/O to its attached hosts.
|Disaster Recovery—Remote Volume Mirroring
|Synchronous and asynchronous data replication software delivers simple, efficient, and flexible remote disaster recovery for business-critical applications.
|Data Protection
|RAID levels 0, 1, 3, 5, 6, 10
|With support for multiple RAID levels, SANtricity software offers the flexibility to address varying performance and capacity requirements and service levels.
|Dynamic Disk Pools
|Dynamic Disk Pools (DDP) enables dynamic rebalancing of drive count changes. DDP provides added data protection with faster rebuild times during a drive failure. Dynamic Disk Pools ensure sustained performance in the event of drive failures for better reliability and availability.
|Proactive Drive Health Monitoring
|Proactive Drive Health Monitoring examines every completed drive I/O and tracks the rate of error and exception conditions returned by the drives, as well as drive performance degradation that is often associated with unreported internal drive issues. Using predictive failure analysis technology, when any error rate or degraded performance threshold is exceeded—indicating that a drive is showing signs of impending failure—SANtricity software issues a critical alert message and takes corrective action necessary to protect the data.
|Background media scans
|Background media scans proactively check drives for defects and initiate repairs before they can cause problems. This includes rewriting sectors that may not have been properly written, reallocating defective sectors, and finding and repairing parity inconsistencies.
|Logical Copy—NetApp Snapshot™ software
|Snapshot software creates a point-in-time image, or logical copy, of a storage volume, enabling secondary servers to access a suspended version of production data for a variety of applications including backup, application testing or development, information analysis, and data mining.
|Volume Copy
|Volume Copy creates a complete physical copy (clone) of a volume in a storage system. The clone volume is a unique entity that can be assigned to any host and used by applications that require a full point-in-time copy of production data (such as backup, application testing or development, information analysis, or data mining) without affecting the performance of the production volume.
|Problem Resolution
|Recovery Guru
|The Recovery Guru provides troubleshooting assistance and determines the appropriate procedure to use for recovery, so that operations can be restored as fast as possible. The Recovery Guru displays detailed information about a particular problem and lists the recovery steps to restore operations.
Extended-Value Software
Affordable, easy-to-buy add-on software that is available to enhance base system functionality.
|Data Security
|SafeStore™ encryption services
|AES-128 bit encryption and simplified key management protect data throughout the drive's lifecycle without sacrificing performance.

I have a curve given by this equation: $$c(t) = (t\cos t,t \sin t,t)$$
I need to prove that this curve lies on a cone, and draw that cone and curve in Sage.
I've read somewhere that I could prove it by taking some random point and then put it into equation. But is there a more general proof, formal way of proving it lies on a cone?
How should I prove it (the easiest way?)

I wanted to use solenoids in previous projects and have been let down by the fact that I can't find them here in Egypt. Plus they are a bit expensive. My question is: is there an alternative that it easy to control and cheap? If not, can you direct me to a way to easily make my own solenoids with limited materials (since I need 31 in a specific project)?
EDIT: I need to push or pull no more than 1". Please no links to buy solenoids.

The 14 Rules of Long-Lasting Relationships
12 of 15
Share the Workload
You have to treat your partner fairly in a relationship, or you haven't got an equal relationship. If you love them, this is one of the most basic ways to show it. Regardless of your background, education, and culture, the only fair thing is for both of you to put an equal amount of time and effort into running your lives.
In other words, no lounging around with your feet up when you get in from work while your partner gets the dinner ready. No sleeping in every morning while they get up with the kids. You should both put in the same amount of work. That means if you both get up together in the morning, no one stops working until everything is done and then you both stop at once. So, if you get home from work and your partner is busy cooking, take over from them, or get some housework done, or put the kids to bed, but don't put your feet up until they can join you.
Of course, you don't have to divide everything exactly, you can do whatever you prefer. In our household, I do all the washing while my wife does all the shopping. It suits us both that way. I get up first, but I generally need quite a few little breaks from the kids on a bad day (bit of a short fuse), whereas she gets up a bit later but then just keeps on going when I need to disappear for a few minutes. I might relax while she's finishing a few chores early evening, but that's because at the end of the evening I do the late-night chores (letting the dog out, loading the dishwasher) while she heads straight for bed. So we don't do exactly the same things, but we both feel happy that the division of labor is equal on balance, and neither of us feels used or abused.
I've heard certain people -- almost always men I might add --- patiently explain that they're earning all the money and working at a tough job all day while their partner is just staying home with the kids. This constitutes much more effort, and therefore it's only fair that their partner does more in the evenings and weekends. They need more rest after all that effort.
If this is your attitude, let me tell you something. I've done a lot of things in my time, including both hard physical work and exhausting creative-thinking type jobs. I've been the sole breadwinner and I've been in a relationship where I earned only a proportion of the household income. I've also done my share of staying at home all day with the kids. I can tell you which job is the toughest by a million miles, and it isn't going out and earning the money.

People are very careful (and rightfully so) to say when they don't understand the words of the Achronim or Rishonim to not say they are/were "wrong". But rather to say "I don't understand what he means". Perhaps as well to be careful not to say "it doesn't make sense". I've seen at times the Achronim and Rishonim were also careful to write this way. However do we ever find that perhaps they wrote a later more "sharply" and did say "this doesn't make sense" or that "he is/was wrong"? At any point in history.

The terms "ולא היא" ("it is not so") and "תמיה" (or some variant, meaning, roughly, "unbelievable") come up quite frequently, although this is often followed by "לפע״ד" ("in my humble opinion").
For one example, the ב"ח in יורה דעה צ"ד levies several criticisms at many others among both his contemporaries and his predecessors, using לפע״ד at least once in the midst of the criticisms, and ends with "כנלפע"ד" ("so it seems to my humble opinion"), although the "end" doesn't close without a couple more direct rejections of both the positions of the שלחן ערוך and the רמ"א.
There are numerous examples of rishonim expressly calling people out for speaking falsely, and while the number of people to do so diminishes with time (unless they're speaking about their own contemporaries), it nonetheless remains a phenomenon. The Maharshal, for example (Rabbi Shlomo Luria), believed that anybody is capable of disputing with anybody else, so long as he spends the time to actually learn all of the primary material. (My source for that is a published PhD dissertation by Edward Fram, as quoted on the Wikipedia entry for Maharshal.)
Consider also the Gra's commentary on Yoreh Deah 179:6 (Biur haGra, §179.13). There, he says that the Rambam was led astray by his own philosophy (והפילוסופיא הטתו) to say things that are patently untrue.
Rabbi Ovadia Yosef has on several occaisions said that a certain Acharon or even Rishon was wrong. He does so respectfully, usually saying, "and with all due respect to his honor, this is not so." You can find at least one instance quoted in this review of one of the several biographies on Rav Ovadia Yosef. (see page 7 right hand column five lines from the bottom).
There is also the Arabanel who wrote an entire book(Rosh Amanah) rejecting the Rambam's thirteen principles. As does the Hatam Sofer(see Rabbi March Shapiro's book The Limits of Orthodox Theology: Rambam's Thirteen Principles Reprised).
The Chazon Ish also said in several of his letters that he was able to disagree with the Rishonim, and did so at times quite sharply.(more sources to follow in this one)
Maran Rav Ovadia was always upset that people wrote in Seforim that the Rishonim are wrong. What you should do? You should work hard to explain where the Rishon is coming from! He did however Pasken with chosing whichever Rishon is more accepted.
Regarding Achronim see introduction to Eigeret Leben Torah by Rav Yitzcak Yosef it saids there that בעצם there is no problem but since the generation changed its better to refrain from using such words.
One interesting example saying directly and explicitly that earlier authorities where wrong is in regards to Rambam's opinion that a woman's seven niddah days and eleven zavah days strictly alternate and various other aspects of his approach to niddah and zavah.
The Chatam Sofer writes in regards to this:
You can also take a look at Rav Slifkin's monograph, The Sun's Path at Night, which documents that many Rishonim openly said that Chazal erred in certain scientific matters, and documents that the approach of reinterpreting these matters as having mystical meaning is a very late occurrence.

I am a huge fan of Craig Ferguson. I think he's a brilliant host with The Late Late Show, and I think he's quite funny.
However, I wholly agree with Judge Patrick Naugle's assertions in his review here:
It is a by-the-numbers stand up DVD, and the content is really nothing to write home about. Pretty bland, unfortunately.

At work we have a firewall that prevents certain outbound connections. But I also have a Clear wireless personal hotspot. I would like to use the work connection for normal requests but for certain requests such as my Mysql app, I would like to use my personal wireless. Is there a way to do that without having to switch back and forth. So all mysql connections just know to use one network interface while other requests use the default.
I've asked the same question a long time ago on superuser.com
I suggest you look in to routing with iptables. I can't remember how off the top of my head, but it would definitely be possible to just catch packets going to a certain host/port and push them off through another interface.
I'm pretty sure there's a way to do this using IPTables, but I'm not an expert at that so I can't really give you detailed information. However, that may point you in the right direction.
Essentially you would set a route for all outgoing connections on the port you connect to with mysql to use that wireless connection.
This is most definitely possible, but like the other people here, I don't know how to do it. Just that it certainly can be done.
Try asking in http://unix.stackexchange.com/.
To separate traffic by app (and not by destination) would require an OSX version of something like ForceBindIP (for Windows only). No matter how you change the routing tables or ipfw, if you have 2 apps that are trying to reach google.com, they will use the same interface, same route.
You might be able to approximate the same kind of behaviour by running each app in a chroot jail that can see only a limited set of devices, and restrict it to a single interface. But that would take a whole lotta configuation for each app.

LOOK: "Supergirl" Introduces Superman in First Family Photo
This Sunday is Bloomsday, that special time of year when people around the world draw together to celebrate one of the finest works of English literature, Ulysses by James Joyce. Or they try to, anyway.
If you haven't attempted to read Joyce's magnum opus before, it can be a little rough going. In honor of the literary holiday, I thought I'd list six Joyce-themed comics you can read on Sunday in addition to (or, if you must, in place of) Ulysses. You wouldn't think there could possibly be that many Joycean comics available to the casual reader but I assure it's so. Steady on, stately, plump Buck Mulligan!
1. Boom Boom #2 by David Lasky: Lasky has done enough Joyce-themed comics to fill at least a thick-sized pamphlet if not an actual book (and really, at some point I need to devote a "Collect This Now!" column to those works). But if you're looking for just one comic to read this Bloomsday, I would strongly recommend starting here, with the second issue of Lasky's '90s-era one-man anthology. In Issue 2, Lasky tells various anecdotes about Joyce during his time writing Ulysses, but his method is both inspired and unique. He apes specific, iconic Lee/Kirby comics, especially Fantastic Four #1, imbuing Joyce's comparatively mundane life with grandeur and heroism. Even after all these years, it's still a pretty boss idea. Once you're done with that comic, consider picking up Lasky's "Ulysses" minicomic adaptation as well.

In New York, kids don't count
The Dec. 14 Newtown school shootings brought eloquent platitudes from coast to coast about how much America cares about its young. Then came the New York City school bus drivers' strike, which demonstrated that children matter ... except when they don't.
In a nutshell, New Yorkers pay $6,900 per year to bus each student to and from school, compared with just $3,100 in Los Angeles. Aware they're being overcharged for an essential service, city officials want to introduce competitive bidding among busing companies, something they haven't done in three decades. The new contracts won't guarantee employment for current drivers — not because municipal leaders wouldn't like to make Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1181 leaders happy, but because it would be illegal for them to offer such a guarantee.

Thread displayNow an outline?
Posted 11 February 2008 - 08:19 PM
Instead of the topic being followed by all the replies until a new page is necessary, every reply is now only accessible through some sort of links outline. It's extremely cumbersome and makes following the discussion or backing out to the forum level quite a chore.
Is there a way I can adjust my personal settings to get threads to display as they always have in the past? Or is this some sort of transitional state like the Apache thing that will clear up in a few days?

I, too, appreciate this, and didn't know I could go back to Standard. The outline way is ungainly in several ways, including the way it re-schedules posts when new ones interacts with them in some way (and these are mostly unnecessary re-arrangements, even if they do 'make sense'--it's just most people don't need that kind of spoonfeeding to navigate a simple thread, and would prefer to make their own decisions on what they want to juxtapose). I've been irritated by this for some weeks, and am so glad you asked Amy.

Apparently there are two URLs which behave differently. If you have been viewing in outline form, close the window and enter http://ballettalk.invisionzone.com/ you get one, if you enter http://ballettalk.in...dex.php?act=idx , you get the other, but I lost track just now of which is which.

The holiday season is bringing out the best of the best within the ranks of the Broward Sheriff's Office.
Deputies and civilian BSO employees are gearing up to help those most in need this year.
Again this year, deputies in District 10 will gather a work detail to pack hundreds of boxes with food and toys for families throughout north Broward. They're working hard at
Deerfield Beach to get the goodies ready for distribution, scheduled for 7:00 am, Friday, December 21, 2001.
In BSO's District 9, North Broward, deputies are getting together for the 8th year in a row to wrap toys and gifts to be given away to the underprivileged in the area. Community leaders will join deputies and District 9 commanders at about 6:00 pm, December 21, 2001 at District 9 headquarters, 750 E. Sample Road, in Pompano Beach to wrap the items. The gifts will be delivered to more than 40 deserving families the next day, Saturday, December 22nd.
And, in District 11, Pompano Beach, BSO deputies and dispatchers are adopting a family that is down on its luck. On Saturday, December 22nd, toys, food, and other gifts will be delivered to 54-year old Mary Hurbert and her 11 grandchildren. Ms. Hurbert is permanently disabled from diabetes and two strokes. When BSO heard of Ms. Hurbert's plight, employees decided to forgo their own gift exchange and instead, pass along the good cheer to the Hurbert grandchildren.
MEDIA PLEASE NOTE: BSO plans to deliver gifts, etc. to the Hurbert family on Saturday, 12/22/01 at about 5:00 pm. The Hurbert address is: 2650 NW 2nd Street, Pompano Beach (Collier City). Should be a great chance to get some truly wonderful holiday footage/photos.

If I am using the correct form while doing a standard deadlift what primary and secondary muscles are being targeted?
Sign up

"That muscle."
There's a classic quote about the power clean, attributed here to Charles Staley, that applies to your question:
The deadlift works all the muscles. However, it's not quite the same as the running-jumping-hitting-the-defender athleticism of the clean, because it's more about being straightforwardly strong. It could be more accurate to say, "You know when you pick up the other guy, throw him to the ground, and pin him there? That muscle." The deadlift is about picking things up, or refusing to be budged.
The target muscles of the deadlift are all of them. The secondary muscles of the deadlift are all the rest.
Lower Back and Posterior Chain
That said, though the deadlift involves the grip, arms, shoulders, upper back, lower back, abs, neck, and legs, it particularly makes strong the lower back and the posterior chain. The excellent resource exrx.net puts the deadlift as primarily using both the erector spinae (isometrically) and the gluteus maximus. Second to those muscles in exrx's run-down are the quadriceps, hamstrings, calves, adductor magnus, and traps.
The erector spinae, abdominals, and related muscles are those that lock the trunk in place during the deadlift, keeping the spine safe.
The glutes, hamstrings, and related muscles are referred to as the posterior chain, which is critically important in nearly all sports. These are the muscles that drive hip extension, such as is involved in most basic athletic movements like running, punching, and jumping.
Training the deadlift makes for a solid back, a strong butt and legs, and as a bonus, pretty much everything else gets stronger too. It stands to reason: barring partial-range-of-motion exercises, the barbell deadlift is usually the heaviest lift one can perform. Performed correctly--which is to say, with very heavy weights--the entire body usually ends up supporting more weight than with any other lift.
Which Muscles, Exactly
The book Strength Training Anatomy by Frederic Devalier details all the muscles used in the deadlift, in graphical form. Those muscles labelled in bold or shaded in red are used.
A larger, more complete version can be found here.
The deadlift works more muscles than any other lift, but what sets it apart from other lifts is the attention it gives to the back:
Specifically, the deadlift works the legs (hamstrings, quads), hips (glutes, and supporting muscles), abs, forearms (for grip strength), and back (almost everything... spinal erectors, lats, rhomboids, levator scapulae, trapezius).
Where you will tend to "feel" the lift if you are using correct form is in the hamstrings and lower back. In the set-up, pre-pull position, you will feel a stretch in your hamstrings as your hips are high and your spinal erectors are pulling your back into rigid extension. Your back fights your hamstrings for control of your hips, and your back must win. That means your hamstrings will feel stretched and your back will be in isometric contraction.

There is a paper by Gy\H{o}ry and Lemons "Hypergraphs with No Cycle of a Given Length", which bounds number of hyperedges for hypergraphs avoiding cycles of length $2k$ (unfortunately, I have access only to the abstract: http://journals.cambridge.org/action/displayAbstract?fromPage=online&aid=8514699). Particularly, in the case of a uniform 4-hypergraph avoiding 2-cycles it seems to provide $O(n^2)$ bound. I am wondering if it is possible to improve this to $o(n^2)$ or it is sharp? Here 2-cycle simply means two hyperedges $E_1, E_2$ which intersect in $2$ vertices.
No. You can't improve it to $o(n^2)$.
Let $\operatorname{ex}_{C_2}(n)$ be the largest possible number of edges of a $4$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices that contains no cycle of length $2$. You can prove that there exists constant $c$ and $n'$ such that for all $n > n'$, $\operatorname{ex}_{C_2}(n) \geq cn^2$.
If you know design theory, you can prove a much stronger theorem. In fact, for any sufficiently large $n$, there exits a $4$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices with $\left\lfloor\frac{n}{4}\middle\lfloor\frac{(n-1)}{3}\middle\rfloor\right\rfloor-c$ edges that contains no cycle of length $2$, where $c$ is a constant.
Because one edge contains ${4}\choose{2}$ pairs out of all distinct ${n}\choose{2}$ pairs, a simple upper bound is $\lfloor\frac{n(n-1)}{12}\rfloor$ (which is $\lfloor\frac{n}{4}\cdot\frac{n-1}{3}\rfloor$). This bound can be slightly strengthened by the Johnson bound to $\left\lfloor\frac{n}{4}\middle\lfloor\frac{(n-1)}{3}\middle\rfloor\right\rfloor$, which is the non-constant term of the number of edges of the hypergraph through design theory mentioned above. Hence, this hypergraph packs all pairs at most once while almost achieving the upper bound on the number of edges, i.e., almost the best possible way of gathering edges while avoiding a cycle of length $2$. If $n(n-1) \equiv 0 \pmod{12}$, you can do better and can actually gather hyperedges in a way all pairs are used up. This is a simple corollary of one of the main theorems of the following paper:
Y. M. Chee, C. J. Colbourn, A. C. H. Ling, R. M. Wilson, Covering and packing for pairs, J. Combin. Theory Ser. A 120 (2013) 1440–1449.
The arguments used in the paper are definitely overkill for your purpose, though. There are cute and elementary design theoretic techniques to prove a bit weaker theorems that are good enough for your purpose.
But since the paper you linked to is on extremal combinatorics, you might like a simple use of the probabilistic method better. Here's one simple way to prove you can get $c'\cdot n^2$ edges for some constant $c'$:
Let $V$ be a finite set of cardinality $n$. Take uniformly at random $4$-subsets of $V$ (i.e., edges) with probability $p = \frac{c}{n^2}$, where $c$ is a positive constant.
The expected value of the number $f$ of cycles of length $2$ you get is upper bounded by ${{n}\choose{6}}\cdot {{{6}\choose{4}}\choose{2}}p^2$. By Markov's Inequality, the probability that you end up with more than or equal to twice the expected value is smaller than or equal to $\frac{1}{2}$. Hence, you have the probably
$$P\left(f \leq 2{{n}\choose{6}}\cdot {{{6}\choose{4}}\choose{2}}p^2\right) \geq \frac{1}{2}.$$
Let $t$ be the random variable counting the number of edges and $E(t)$ its expected value. Then $E(t) = {{n}\choose{4}}p$. Because $t$ is a binomial random variable, by Chernoff's inequality, for sufficiently large $n$ we have $P\left(t < \frac{E(t)}{2}\right) < e^{-\frac{E(t)}{8}} < \frac{1}{2}$. Hence, if $n$ is sufficiently large, with positive probability we obtain edge set $\mathcal{E}$ with $\vert\mathcal{E}\vert > {{n}\choose{4}}p$ that contains at most $2{{n}\choose{6}}\cdot {{{6}\choose{4}}\choose{2}}p^2$ cycles of length $2$. Deleting one edge from each forbidden cycle will give you a desired $4$-uniform hypergraph. Hence, you can have at least
$${{n}\choose{4}}p - 2{{n}\choose{6}}\cdot {{{6}\choose{4}}\choose{2}}p^2$$
edges while avoiding cycles of length $2$ with positive probability.
So, all we need to do is choose a good $c$ for the probability $p=\frac{c}{n^2}$ so that the above number is of the form $c'n^2 + O(n)$ for some constant $c'$. This can be done if we pick small enough $c$.

An El Paso man has now been formally charged with robbing the South 1st branch of First Bank Texas on Sept. 27.
Frank Esparza, Sr., 40, is charged with armed robbery. Esparza is an El Paso truck driver.
The U.S. District Attorney alleges Esparza's truck broke down in Abilene on Sept. 25.
Two days later, he contacted one of two juveniles and asked them to find a bank for him to rob. The federal complaint also said Esparza then entered the First Bank Texas branch about 4:30 p.m., on Sept. 27 and robbed the bank at gunpoint.
Frank Esparza, Jr., 17, is in the Taylor County jail charged with first-degree felony robbery.
He was apparently the teen who cased the bank his father wanted to rob.
A second juvenile, a 16-year-old, is also facing charges for talking part in the robbery.

I'm currently studying atmospheric-gravity waves and their dispersion relations.
For analysis I need to plot the dispersion function:
\begin{equation} \omega^4 - \omega^2\cdot C_s^2(k_x^2 + k_z^2 + \dfrac{1}{4H^2}) + (\gamma - 1)g^2\cdot k_x^2 = 0 \end{equation} where, $C_s^2$, $H$, $\gamma$ and $g$ are some constant values.
I used
Solve to get $\omega$ as a function of $k_x^2$ and $k_z^2$ - $\omega = \omega(k_x^2, k_z^2)$.
Code for solving:
Solve[\[Omega]^4 - \[Omega]^2*(Subscript[k, x]^2 +
Subscript[k, z]^2 + 1/(4*H^2)) + (\[Gamma] - 1)*g^2*Subscript[k, x]^2 == 0, \[Omega]]
What I want:
Plot[f, {k, 0, 20}]
f is any solution of
Solve. It plot nothing, because Mathematica didn't know about $k^2 = k_x^2 + k_z^2$ relation.

Quick question about TFS - Do you guys check-in bin/debug folders into TFS? (if so, why?) Since the content of those folders are dynamically generated is it better to leave them out so that the programmer will not run into read-only issues?

As a general rule, source control is best used for source only, and generated files are not source.
There are exceptions. Sometimes (using Visual Studio) you might want to keep the .pdb file for reading minidumps. Sometimes you can't duplicate a toolchain, so that you can't necessarily recreate generated files accurately. In these cases, you're primarily interested in doing this for released software, not for every VCS change, and in any case these can easily reside in versioned folders. (These are typically binary files, anyway, and don't have comprehensible changes from one version to another, and don't benefit all that much from being in a VCS.)
Simple answer? No. Don't do it! I can't think of many reasons not to, but no reason why you would want to.
The only time I can think you would check in a dll is if it's from a third party library that you don't expect every developer to have installed to build. But even still, that's not located in the bin folder.
That being said I did work at one company that required that each deploy package be put into source control, but that was so that we could track the various builds we gave to our client and could easily roll back if we had to.
We check-in the contents of the bin directories as part of our Change Request process. To avoid the read-only issues, we copy the contents to a separate folder and check them in from there. Our corporate policy requires that all binaries that go to production are checked-in separately from the source. It's not the best solution but it works and it does give us the exact files that are in production.
We do not check in the bin folder into TFS. As you have probably noticed, if you do that, every time any developer builds the solution, they will be checking out the bin folder. Not good. However there are libraries that the project needs in order to compile and run, and our rule is that any project should be able to be opened from source control, and it should compile and run. So what we do is create a "BinRef" folder for any DLLs that the project must have reference to, and create the Project References to the copy in the BinRef folder. The BinRef folder is checked in to TFS.
The other advantage to this approach is that BinRef is always at the root level of the web project. If my project lives in
. You may keep your project files in
I hesitate to check any non-text file into source control. Especially ones that should be generated by the developer. I also like to keep other binary files, such as images and PDFs, zipped up and stored elsewhere for each tag/release.
No, but our in house project control tool does automatically, which annoys the heck out of me.
My solution is to mark all the files in release and debug as writable and when TFS complains I tell it to ignore the files, so I never have a problem with a build failing.
I avoid entering them into source control. They're redundant information, the binaries can be built by the source code in that revision. Additionally, the source code is always up to date, the builds may not be on commit.
I save some generated binary files, like .NET interops from another project. So if I have a project A which creates a COM object, and then you use that COM object in a very loosely related project B which uses it via .NET interop, I check in that interop generated from project A into project B. It is not a good idea, but it has to go somewhere because AFAIK Visual Studio won't create the interop for your automatically during the build.
In my opinion, not storing binaries in source control is one of the most common mistakes. They should be stored, versioned, baselined/labeled together with the sources and also build tools. Suite yourself with building not traceable software...

The town of Sorong, located on the "beak" of the Bird's Head Peninsula in West Papua is the departure point for your visit to the fabulous Raja Ampat marine park. The word "Sorong" is said to originate from the local Soreri language meaning "deep and turbulent seas". Mountains, hills, lowlands, and protected forests securely surround the town. As a port, its inhabitants come from multi-ethnic descent.
Sorong has long been one of the busiest harbors of West Papua, owing to the oil supplies found in this region since 1932. However, oil projects have declined significantly today. The productive oil fields off Sorong were one of the reasons why the former Dutch colonialists hung on to Irian (former name of Papua) even after the independence of the Indonesian archipelago. It is not surprising that the town is multi-cultural.
Today, oil is actually still the dominant industry here, although timber export comes second, with logs usually directly shipped overseas. Nowadays, government regulations require that milling and processing take place locally. Therefore, plywood factories and such are being built in Sorong. The seas around Sorong are rich in tuna and shrimp, which are also major export commodities. On Kabra island, there is a Japanese farm for cultured pearls, while shark fins and trepang are shipped to Hong Kong, Taiwan and China.
Sorong has a number of starred hotels including the Sahid Mariat, the JE Meridien, and the Grand Pacific.
