One of the PCs in the group I am hosting likes to read books about various arcana stuff in the library of the city at night. (He only needs to sleep for 2 hours.)
Should I reward the PC somehow with skill points or something similar? And how much do you think makes sense? Is there some official documentation that describes how to handle this self-educating stuff?

Situated 40 Km from Denpasar, capital of Bali province, or some 20-30 minutes drive from the vibrant Kuta Beach, lies Bali's most artfully designed high class beach resort along a vast stretch of picturesque coastline. This is Nusa Dua, a sparklingly prestigious, sprawling enclave of international luxury hotels, deluxe spas, exclusive golf courses, and world class convention centers, that was purposely built to present the beauty of the island wrapped in exclusive luxury.
Designed to be an 'all-inclusive' tourist destination, Nusa Dua encompasses a total area of 350 hectares. The entire estate has a postcard perfect clean, dream-like, tropical paradise feeling about it that makes it popular with both convention goers and honeymooners. Here hotels are built no higher than the coconut trees. The crystal clear shallow waters and the pearly soft white sandy beaches surrounding Nusa Dua make it a perfect place to have fun for all members of the family or for tired conference delegates to relax, go swimming and return completely reinvigorated and re-inspired.
Nusa Dua is really about enjoying your leisure time in total luxury. As most of the sumptuous hotels and facilities are found here, every indulgence and comfort are at your disposal. Among the hotels and resorts found here are: The Westin Resort, Grand Bali Hyatt Bali, St.Regis Bali Resort, The Laguna Resort & Spa, Nikko Bali Resort & Spa, and more. There are also the top five golf courses in Asia, the Bali Golf and Country Club, an immaculately landscaped 18 holes ocean view course and the Bali International Lawn Tennis & Lawn Bowls Club next to the Galleria Nusa Dua a spacious shopping mall with boutiques and up market restaurants. Tee off into the sunset as the waves calmly embrace the shore or relax in ocean view swimming pools that will surely offer its own special sensation.
Situated just over 20 minutes from the brand new Ngurah Rai International Airport , passing the toll road over the sea, Nusa Dua is also acknowledged as an ideal integrated venue for international conventions and exhibitions. Among the many international conventions successfully held at Nusa Dua were the 2013 Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Summit which was attended by world leaders and delegates, and the Miss World Pageant.
The most comprehensive Convention centers in Nusa Dua are the Bali International Convention Centre (BICC) and the Bali Nusa Dua Convention Center (BNDCC). The BICC has large, well equipped and most flexible conference and exhibition facilities on Bali. BICC also offers an exclusive bonded warehouse that greatly facilitates custom clearance and delivery.While, prepared for the ASEAN Summit and the East Asia Summit in November 2011, the new BNDCC covers an impressive 70,000 sq.m garden landscape with breathtaking Balinese architecture, including a total 25,000 sq.m building areas, that are all integrated to create a complete infrastructure for any kind of events.
The integrated tourist enclave of Nusa Dua is developed and managed under the Bali Tourism Development Center (BTDC), a statutory company established by the Indonesian government in 1973. As part of the Bali Tourism Development Master Plan, the Nusa Dua Project is an integrated tourism area and accommodation estate, purposely set apart from the local Balinese villages and daily life to reduce possible negative impacts of tourism on local communities to allow for their cultural and social sustainability.
The name Nusa Dua itself literally translated means "Two Islands" which refers to the two small raised headlands or islands found just off the coast of the peninsula. On one of the islands stands a Hindu shrine (Pura) called Nusa Dharma which was built in 1948 by Tan Sie Yong of Chinese descent.
Nusa Dua also an estate of luxurious accommodation. Here you can find some of the most prestigious and luxurious hotels on the entire island. Among these are:
The Westin Resort
Nusa Dua Beach Hotel & Spa
The Laguna Resort & Spa
Melia Bali Villas & Spa Resort
Grand Bali Hyatt Bali
Inna Putri Bali:
Ayodya Resort Bali:
Novotel Nusa Dua:
Nikko Bali Resort & Spa:
Nusa Dua is located 40km south of Denpasar, the provincial capital of Bali. Access is easy from the Kuta area (20-30 minutes) and Jimbaran (15 minutes) on the main southern route called Jalan Bypass Ngurah Rai, which becomes Jalan Bypass Nusa Dua as it approaches the enclave.

xtype is set to 'element' for different elements, instead of the proper xtype.
I have a nested element. When I try to use the "up" method in the painted listener, I get null when querying for formpanel. When I use getParent() to climb the component chain, the formpanel (identified by its auto-generated id) has an xtype value of "element". I'm guessing this is why up is failing.
This was working in 2.0.0.
Ext.application({ launch:function () { Ext.create('Ext.form.Panel', { fullscreen:true, items:[ { xtype:'fieldset', cls:'notes-form', items:[ { xtype:'textareafield', name:'notes', listeners:{ painted:function (c) { var parentHeight = c.up('formpanel').element.getHeight(true); c.element.down('textarea').setHeight(parentHeight - 7); } } } ] } ] }); } });

Think your getting mixed up between component query and dom query.
Your code is using a dom query (c is an Ext.Element) returning an Ext.dom.Element so is expecting css selectors see- http://docs.sencha.com/touch/2-1/#!/api/Ext.DomQuery
To use a component query try

HTC Inspire 3G/4G Mobile Smartphone for ATT (Pre-Owned) for $89.99 + free shipping
coupon code: WOOT30
You wanna be really inspired? Try going one day without using a phone because you dropped yours in the toilet. Oh wait, that's probably why you're buying this, huh?
9 Comments add a comment
The link says they start from $119.99
Also, these appear to be quad-band GSM phones, so they might also work with T-mobile? Can anyone with expertise confirm / deny?
EDIT: they appear to be manufactured specifically for AT&T, so probably no T-mobile.
@dominusmoose: I suspect that you need to use the coupon code to knock $30 off the price. Coincidentally, the code is WOOT30.
I've got one of these, they're great phones. Get a fishbone case for it though
@dominusmoose: ATT-branded phones will work on T-mo if unlocked - and vice versa.
Every time I try to add one to cart, regardless of product grade, it says it is no longer available. Either they are really sold out and never updated, or something isn't going right. Do want one.
This will work on T-Mobile, but you will only get 2G speeds. Only works on Edge, see the frequencies.
Promo code is not working for me. I'm getting "Sorry, this promo code is not valid" when I apply WOOT30.
@ginawoot: It is technically illegal to unlock the phone now.
Just an FYI. Though there is a petition to overturn this ruling.
Other sources:
It's illegal to unlock new phones only. These phones are preowned and this regulation does not apply here.

Two days before finals began Western students gathered at a party at the Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity house on Chestnut Street. Eighteen-year-old Katie Autry and her best friend Danica Jackson arrived after midnight. Jackson and her friends say Autry was intoxicated and was taken home by a fraternity member.
Jackson says she remembers calling their room around 2:30 a.m. to make sure Autry had returned safely. She says Autry seemed fine during the conversation. It was approximately 4 a.m. when firefighters responded to a fire at Hugh Poland Hall. The fire was extinguished by the hall's newly installed sprinkler system. Freshman Katie Autry receives severe burns.
As emergency workers brought her out one eyewitness described Katie as a "life-less" doll according to the College Heights Herald. Autry was then transported to the Medical Center in Bowling Green then life-flighted to Vanderbilt listed in critical condition. University officials say the teenager incurred superficial puncture wounds to her face and neck as well as third degree burns.
The Hancock Clarion reports Autry's foster father admitted Katie was hit in the head with something and that the third degree burns extended from her shoulders to her knees. University officials confirmed her room was locked.
The College Heights Herald reports seeing three men being taken away from the scene by police shortly after the fire, reportedly to be questioned. Poland residents were forced to remain out of the building until 9 p.m. Sunday night. Police interviewed as many students as they could.
Meanwhile stories about what happened began to run rampant on Western's campus. In a Wednesday press conference, Western Police spoke for the first time and confirmed the fire was no accident. Police say a collection of agencies worked together interviewing more than one hundred people and an undisclosed number of Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity members.
Thursday morning Newscenter 13 learned search warrants were issued in the case, however, there was no word on the property in question or the number of warrants issued. Western Police Chief Bob Deane stated investigators were currently examining evidence.
Back on campus hundreds of students were still talking about the incident as they packed up and headed home. Officials, obviously worried about key information leaving with students, quickly distributed flyers across campus reminding students of a $2,000 reward.
Also on Thursday, May 8, a 4:30 p.m. press conference was pushed back to 7 p.m. after Chief Deane stated he didn't want to pull investigators away from what they were doing. University officials said those investigators were in a number of counties. Thursday evening, the chief remained extremely tight-lipped maintaining he had a theory behind the fire, but wouldn't comment further.
Funeral arrangements for Autry were released Friday, May 9. Plans call for Autry to be buried in Rosine, the home of her birth mother. Arrangements are being handled by William L. Danks funeral home in Beaver Dam, that's where visitation will be held Saturday, May 10 from 4 p.m. until 8 p.m., Sunday, May 11 from 6 p.m. until 8 p.m. and Monday, May 12, from 9a.m. until 2 p.m. The funeral will begin Monday at 2 p.m. in Beaver Dam with a burial to follow in Rosine. Meanwhile, a memorial service is planned Sunday, May 11afternoon at 2 p.m. at Pellville Baptist Church in Pellville. Katie and her sister Lisa lived in Pellville with their foster parents, Jim and Shirley Inman, for the last several years.
Katie was a 2002 graduate of Hancock County High School.

I have ESXi 5.0 installed and when I am installing Ubuntu Server 12.04 LTS (32 bit) it is giving an error saying grub installation failed
Here is a screenshot of the error:
- I have other Ubuntu servers running fine on this esxi server, so I don't think problem is with ESXi.
- I have 32 GB of ram spare on this ESXi and have given 2 GB of RAM to this 12.0 LTS VM.
- I have allocated 2 processor cores.
- I have tried supplying different ISO Image to this VM as I thought the 1st image that I downloaded has errors. But that's definitely not the case as all 3 different ISO images that I downloaded of Ubuntu server 12.04 LTS (32-bit) can't be corrupt!
- Just to make sure that the Image does not have problem I used that Image to install it for testing on stand alone system. it works fine there!
- This is a production ESXi server which I can't play with, however I can play with the Ubuntu Server 12.04 LTS (32-Bit) VM that we have created on that ESXi.
Here is more information for another attempt:
For this install, I've given 1 core of the XENON processor, 1 GB of RAM and 20 GB of HHD.
I have used LVM with the automatic partition manager (where I do not have to create partitions manually).
I do not have any working Ubuntu 12.04 LTS image installed anywhere. :(
I tried installing Ubuntu 12.10 on the same VM which worked well, however that is of no use to me as I need Ubuntu 12.04 LTS only for testing purpose.
Please let me know if you need any further details.
I need help on this as soon as possible, as the go live date of this server is really close.

Raising Children Free of Prejudice
3 of 9
Coping with Prejudice
When children are hurt by racial or ethnic cruelty, though, it's harder to restrain an immediate emotional response. It's important, however, to try to comfort and explain instead of reacting angrily. If your child is called an ugly name, for instance, it's a great temptation to fly into a blind rage. But what your child needs from you is reassurance that she is a good person and that people who call her such names are not nice people. At the same time, she needs to know that all people of that particular group don't act this way, and that there are good and bad people of all ethnic groups and races.
Children need encouragement to be assertive in these situations, at least saying to the name-caller, "I don't like you calling me bad names and I want you to stop." And it's important to stress that talking out a problem is always the thing to try first. If a situation gets out of hand, a parent may need to intervene -- and your child needs to know that you are ready to back her up -- but children should be encouraged to initially try to handle these difficulties themselves. Then, if a similar incident occurs again, they will be better able to deal with it. Whatever the problem, however, parents of color need to ensure that their children develop coping mechanisms that don't compromise their children's dignity.

Shadyside, River only girls teams left standing
February 25, 2013
Then there were only two. The road to the Schottenstein Center has cleared another hurdle as sectional tournament action has been completed around the Buckeye State....
Mr. North: Based on your comment that it's "ridiculous and outright stupid" that the New Philadelphia gymnasium will be cleared between games tells me that you've probably never been one of the fans from a team in the second game that's been forced to sit in the "cheap seats" at one of these multi-game events because the fans for game one are too inconsiderate to vacate their court side seats in order to allow the fans for the second game to sit in them. If that's not reason enough to clear the gym between games, this particular venue has been known to sell out during previous (boys) district games. Since we don't all have the benefit of media passes and seats, clearing the gym actually makes a lot of sense to us fans.

- Binding: Hardcover (USAC)
- Era: World War II
- Number of Pages: 480
- Subject: Royal Navy
- Date Available: August 2011
In August 1944 the British Pacific Fleet did not exist. Six months later it was strong enough to launch air attacks on Japanese territory, and by the end of the war it constituted the most powerful force in the history of the Royal Navy, fighting as professional equals alongside the U.S. Navy in the thick of the action. How this was achieved by a nation nearing exhaustion after five years of conflict is a story of epic proportions in which ingenuity, diplomacy and dogged persistence all played a part. This groundbreaking work describes the background, creation and expansion of the British Pacific Fleet from its first tentative strikes to its impact on the immediate post-war period. The book is the first to demonstrate the British Pacific Fleet's impressive achievement.
David Hobbs, a veteran of the Royal Navy and former Curator of the Fleet Air Arm Museum is the author of a number of highly regarded books on naval aviation, including A Century of Carrier Aviation [5].

I keep getting this on my WordPress site after I moved it from my development server to the live site. It's happening in one file that is using a few functions which I think is causing it, but I don't know how to fix it.
Allowed memory size of 268435456 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 452314848 bytes) in Unknown on line 0
The code of the file that is causing the problem is here: custom.php
I think it is one of these functions:
ob_flush() or
How this started happening:
I finished development of the site using WordPress MU (only 2 blogs in the network), originally I had it working with sub-directories. Once I moved it to the live server, I switched to sub-domains and got them working fine (both sites are showing) but I am getting that error in
custom.php, causing some JavaScript to stop functioning.
By the way, this only happens about 85% of the time, not every time the error shows.
Let me add that I am customizing a theme called Repro, if it is of any relevance. Anyways, if anyone can help me troubleshoot on why this is happening, and what I can do to fix it, I would be very grateful, thanks!
Things I have tried:
Increasing the memory limit using
define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '1024M'); in
wp-config.php. - No luck
Switching themes - The problem only persists on the Repro theme

The midfielder admitted Thursday night's Europa League defeat to Zenit was "extremely disappointing" but is now eager to finish as high up the league as possibleLiverpool midfielder Joe Allen says his side still have plenty to play for this season, despite their Europa League exit at the hands of Zenit St Petersburg on Thursday night.
The Welshman scored the Reds' second as they beat the Russians 3-1 at Anfield, but Hulk's early strike ensured the visitors progressed on the away goals rule.
And, whilst Allen bemoaned the Merseyside outfit's failure to progress, he underlined the importance of finishing as high up the league table as possible.
He told the club's official website: "It was extremely disappointing. You score, win the second tie 3-1 and still don't go through - it's pretty hard to take.
"The score-line showed how much effort we put into the game and on another day we might have done enough to go through.
"The intensity of our performance, and the will and determination to try everything we could to get through, was evident.
"It's hard to look at the positives at this moment but when we look back I'm sure we will.
"We approach every game between now and the end of the season to try and get as many points as we can and get ourselves as high a position in the table as we can.
"There might not be a trophy to play for but there's plenty for us as a football club to play for and we'll do that."

Do We Smell Our Age?
May 30, 2012 -- If one of your concerns about getting older is that you'll have that so-called ''old people's smell" that is the butt of jokes and bad birthday greeting cards, here's some new, reassuring research.
Older people "do have a characteristic odor, but it's not a negative odor," says Johan Lundstrom, PhD, a sensory neuroscientist at the Monell Chemical Senses Center, a research institute in Philadelphia.
"The negative association with old people's body odor seems to come from our negative association with old age," he tells WebMD.
In his new research, middle-aged men actually were evaluated as most stinky of three adult age groups. Middle-aged women smelled best.
The study is published in PLoS ONE.
Smell of Age: Research
In previous animal studies, Lundstrom tells WebMD, researchers have found that body odors carry age-related information. Animals can detect and process that information.
Doing so helps them with such tasks as picking suitable mates for reproducing.
In people, a unique "old person's smell" has long been talked about. In Japan, they have a special word for it -- kareishu.
As a child, Lundstrom says he sometimes visited his mother at her job as head nurse at a retirement community. Years later, he gave a talk at a retirement home.
"The odor hit me," he says. It was the same odor he had smelled as a young boy in Sweden, he says.
Lundstrom wanted to see if the animal odor findings might also hold true with people.
Sniffing Out Age: Study Details
For the study, Lundstrom first collected body odor from three age groups: 20 to 30, 45 to 55, and 75 to 95. Each group had 12 to 16 men and women.
Each person slept in an unscented T-shirt with underarm pads for five nights.
Next, they gave the pads to Lundstrom. He cut each pad into four pieces and put them in glass jars.
Next, 41 young evaluators, all aged 20 to 30, were given the jars with the pads. They were asked to identify which came from which age donor.
They also asked how intense they found the odor on the pads and how unpleasant.

This study addresses the determinants of time-to-licensing, defined as the elapsed time between the disclosure of an invention and the signed licensing contract, and its impact on the commercial success of the licensed inventions from public research. Using a dataset containing detailed information on the licensing activities of the Max Planck Society, I do not find significant evidence that time-to-licensing negatively influences the commercial success of the inventions disclosed between 1980 and 2004. However, separating the effect of the time-to-licensing for the inventions disclosed between 1990 and 2004, I do find a significant negative influence on the likelihood and extent of the commercial success. Thus, the pace of technology transfer has become important because of the rapidly changing business environment and technological obsolescence. Furthermore, inventions from the biomedical section, collaborative inventions with private-sector firms, and inventions that are co-invented with senior scientists require less time to become licensed.

Swiss Parliament Pushes Back on U.S. Banks Deal
Plan for Swiss Banks to Hand Over Data on American Clients Is Sent Back to Upper House
ZURICH—Swiss lawmakers dealt a serious blow Tuesday to a plan that could enable the country's banks to avoid the threat of prosecution in the U.S. by collectively coming clean about their dealings with suspected American tax evaders.
The lower house of Parliament voted 126-67 against even considering the plan, which would allow banks to skirt Switzerland's banking secrecy law and hand information to U.S. authorities about the undeclared holdings of their American clients, as well as the bank employees who assisted those clients.
The vote sends the measure back to the upper house, which had approved it last week, for further debate and another show of hands as early as Wednesday. A reversal there would mean the legislation's demise—and could lead to severe legal complications for Swiss banks in U.S. courts. Approval would send it back to the lower house.
More from MoneyBeat
The Swiss cabinet introduced the plan last month. Critics called it a violation of Swiss sovereignty.
Lawmakers raised concerns that it could unfairly expose local advisers and attorneys to legal prosecution in the U.S. The Swiss Bankers Association, an industry lobby, has said it lacks important details on the potential size of fines for the banks that agree to participate.
A spokesman for the Swiss Department of Finance said enough time remains for the measure to be passed before Parliament's current session ends Friday. The autumn session begins Sept. 9.
But Peter V. Kunz, a professor of business law at the University of Bern, said chances weren't good. "I think the deal is dead," he said, adding that the immediate repercussion will be continued uncertainty for the country's flagship financial sector.
The Swiss cabinet had urged Parliament to act swiftly, implying that if more of the country's roughly 300 banks don't start coming forward soon, U.S. authorities may come down hard on them with indictments and heavy fines.
A spokeswoman for the U.S. Justice Department declined to comment on the Swiss vote.
Wegelin & Co., Switzerland's oldest bank, was hit with a U.S. indictment last year and is now defunct. UBS AG UBS 1.62 % , the country's biggest bank, resolved its issues with a deferred prosecution agreement in 2009, under which it admitted to helping Americans use Swiss accounts to evade taxes and paid a $780 million fine.
U.S. authorities have already opened investigations into about a dozen other banks, including Credit Suisse Group AG and Julius Baer Group AG, which have begun handing over information as part of the U.S. crackdown on tax evasion.
Credit Suisse has already set aside 295 million Swiss francs ($320 million) to deal with the investigation. Julius Baer hasn't made a specific provision, but analysts generally estimate the Zurich-based bank could be hit with fines ranging from 200 million francs to 500 million francs.
Although important details weren't made public, the plan would allow banks to start giving information to the Justice Department about their past relationships with American clients.
The information wouldn't include client names or individual account details, but it would provide U.S. authorities with statistical data to help them uncover secret accounts. In particular, say experts, it would help the U.S. find assets that people moved out of larger Swiss banks into smaller ones after the UBS case.
The proposed plan drew criticism from the largest political parties in the lower house of Parliament shortly after it was unveiled.
The right-wing Swiss People's Party has said U.S. authorities are unfairly pressing Swiss officials to do their bidding, while the left-leaning Social Democrats have said banks should be left to resolve their legal issues on their own.
The Swiss People's Party said that Tuesday's vote is "a clear signal in favor of the rule of law." The party urged the upper house to follow suit and vote against the plan.
Though they haven't been given specific details about the fines in store for banks participating in the plan, lawmakers have estimated penalties will amount to as much as 10 billion francs.
The potential legal impact of the plan on independent Swiss advisers and lawyers who have dealt with American clients has also remained a mystery.
"It is kind of a black box," said Urs Furrer, an official with the Swiss Institute of Certified Accountants and Tax Experts.
Even if Swiss lawmakers ultimately reject the plan, the issue won't go away, said Scott Michel, a tax attorney at Caplin & Drysdale in Washington.
"Ultimately the U.S. will get the information it wants, although it will come more slowly unless the Swiss parliament reconsiders," he said.

Are You The Only One Who Doesn't "Have It Together"?
In many of us, there's an interesting paradox in our behavior: we strongly want to be loved and liked by others, but we won't admit it. We often design our careers, living spaces, styles of dress, and other aspects of our lives to gain others' approval, and sometimes even rehearse what we're going to say to each other. But we feel that, if we admit how much we do to ensure good relations with others, we'll be rejected and seen as weak. Telling someone "I want you to approve of me" is probably one of the scariest and most vulnerable things we can do.
I've come to believe the reason we're so anxious to hide our desire to be liked is our conviction, on some level, that nobody else wants approval—that we're the only people who want to be liked and loved, and have anxiety about not getting those things. Many of us walk around assuming we're the only ones with insecurities, and that everyone else "has it together" and would ridicule us if we admitted to wanting approval. Thus, we try to look tough by pretending we don't care what anyone thinks and we're just doing our own thing.
I was reminded of this recently in a conversation with a friend. She tends to get pretty worked up when she feels like someone's ignoring her or not taking her seriously, even when it's someone she doesn't know. Lately she's been distressed because, when she comes across the woman who lives next door, her neighbor seems to ignore her and doesn't respond when she says hello. When this happens, my friend starts coming up with all sorts of painful stories about why her neighbor isn't acknowledging her. She wonders if her neighbor thinks she's ugly, unsociable, crazy, or worse.
After we'd talked about my friend's situation a bit, my friend remarked that an interesting thought was entering her mind. She realized her neighbor's behavior was actually a lot like her own back in college. When my friend was in school, she was even more worried about being disliked, and she tended to shy away from relating with people for fear of being harshly judged. Some days, she felt so shy that she'd walk around campus with a hat or hood on her head, looking down at the ground so she wouldn't be talked to or seen.
"It sounds like your neighbor might be just as afraid of being judged as you were," I said.
"Maybe," my friend replied. "I have a hard time imagining anyone could be as shy and scared as I was back then, but maybe."
After our conversation, though she was still skeptical that others harbored the same fears she did, my friend found the way she saw her neighbor beginning to shift. Instead of fretting over how much her neighbor supposedly despised her, she found herself feeling compassionate and understanding. After all, she knew what it was like to experience the fear her neighbor might be feeling.
And, she recognized, what if her neighbor does actually think she's unattractive or worthless, or has made some other negative judgment about her? If her neighbor, when she sees my friend, thinks "it's not worth my time to say 'hello' to this worthless person," her neighbor must have her own share of anxiety. If she's really concerned about wasting time, losing face, or otherwise being harmed just by saying hi to somebody, she must have quite a fearful existence.
But at a deeper level, my friend reported, when she started considering the possibility that other people had the same fears of being disliked, she felt the intensity of her anxiety lessening. Her biggest fear, she recognized, wasn't that others wouldn't accept her—it was that her desire for acceptance made her weak, alien or strange.
She was ashamed, in other words, of the fact that she wanted to be liked. The tension that gripped her chest and shoulders when she felt rejected or unacknowledged by someone came from that shame. When she started recognizing that her desire to be accepted was only human, her shame began fading away.
Conversations like this one have convinced me that it isn't our desire to be liked that has us feel so embarrassed or frightened when we think someone isn't acknowledging us. It's the common belief that wanting to be liked makes us weak, immature, or otherwise unacceptable.
When a situation comes up that triggers our need for acceptance—maybe it's someone interrupting us, ignoring us, talking to us as if we don't understand, or something else—it activates our shame around that need as well.
I think many of us could make our lives easier by simply admitting we want to be loved and liked by others, and recognizing that this doesn't make us weird, unacceptable, shameful or anything else. When we reconcile with that desire for acceptance, rather than judging it or pushing it away, the desire no longer seems so overwhelming and threatening.
Paradoxically, once we understand that the desire for acceptance is a common human need, it stops feeling so desperately important. Acknowledging that desire actually helps us feel freer to live the lives we want, without having to constantly look over our shoulders to make sure we're being approved of.

Charlotte won its first five-set match of 2012 with players posting career highs in the 3-2 win (25-23, 23-25, 18-25, 25-18, 15-11) over UM-Kansas City Saturday morning at the Runnin' Bulldog Classic, hosted by Gardner-Webb. The Roos and Niners were the only two teams in the field with winning records. Charlotte improved to 6-2 on the season, while UMKC is now 6-5.
Junior Amanda Videmsek (Highland Heights, Ohio / Beaumont School) followed her team-leading 15-kill performance Friday with a career-high 23 kills Saturday morning. She had only five errors in 44 attempts for a .409 attack percentage. She leads Charlotte with a .377 attack percentage for the season.
The 49ers had to come back and win the last two sets to claim the victory. It was Charlotte's first five-set win of the season, after posting a 7-2 mark in five-set matches last year, totaling more than half of the team's victories.
Charlotte won the opening set as it has in all eight matches this season, outpacing the Roos for the two-point win. There were 10 ties and two lead changes in the set, with Charlotte leading most of the way, though the lead only touched four points on time in the set.
The Roos saw the 49ers jump out to a 3-0 lead in the second, but put up a late 7-2 run to tie the match at 20. In the late stages, UMKC was able to lean on Emily Lucas for late kills to even the match. Lucas tied two other players for eight kills for the Roos.
Charlotte led briefly to start the third set, but four attack errors in a five-point stretch sabotaged Charlotte's efforts in the third set, and the Niners never got back in the match in the late stages to go down a set.
The 49ers managed to win their first fourth set of the season. Charlotte surged out to a 4-1 lead, getting three kills from freshman Carly Ochs (Town and Country, Mo. / St. Joseph's Academy) to power the early attack. The Roos then put together a 5-0 run, quickly answered by a Charlotte 7-0 run to set the tone. The set stayed mostly in Charlotte's three-point favor until the Niners slowly built a longer lead and forced the tiebreaker.
Charlotte forced the Roos into some early errors for an early niners lead, and Videmsek added three more kills to put away the match.
Senior setter Lily Vera (Anderson, S.C. / Stone Bridge HS) posted a career-high 59 assists in the match. She holds an 11.89 assists-per-set average to this point of the season. Senior Bianca Rouse (Columbia, S.C. / Keenan HS) contributed her fifth double-double of the season, coming in the team's last six matches, with 18 kills and 16 digs. Rouse is averaging exactly four kills per set in 2012. Senior libero Jenna Litoborski (Lemont, Ill.) had a match-best 23 digs. Junior Christina Drake (Greer, S.C. / Riverside HS) added a season-high 15 digs and freshman Michelle Hovey (Raleigh, N.C. / Lighthouse) collected a career-best 12 digs in the match.
Charlotte will play host Gardner-Webb in the evening session, starting at 5 p.m. to finish the weekend. The Niners can do no worse than tie for the team title at the Classic this weekend.

This question already has an answer here:
If so, how are they created (roughly speaking). Earlier in the video he says that a laser scanned the surface of the object, which suggests that no physical object needs to be present at the time of viewing the hologram, like what is required for a Mirage toy (seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFqlQiTTHRs). Is this right?
I am aware that this is a fictional show, so what they are saying should not be taken too seriously and the hologram effect could be added by CG effects, but I am interested in the actual workings of this type of hologram (as opposed to a "flat" hologram).

TROY (November 22, 2012)—A Troy man died Wednesday morning in a pickup truck crash along a rural road in Bell County.
Bell County Justice of the Peace David Barfield pronounced Homer David Morris dead at the scene just after 11 a.m. and ordered his body taken to the Southwest Institute of Forensic Science, in Dallas, for autopsy.
A Department of Public Safety trooper who investigated the accident reported Morris was driving a 1989 Chevrolet pick up truck along Farm-to-Market Road 438 about a mile north of Troy when he lost control in a curve, left the roadway and crashed into several trees.
Morris was not wearing a seat belt, according to the report.

Without knowing all the facts it would appear the this judge crossed the line.
A judge in Texas recently got himself into hot water for sentencing an honor
student to a day in adult jail for truancy. Plus going to school that girl was
working a full time job and a part time job to support a sister and brother
after her parents abandoned them.
And yes, that judge got his hand slapped real hard.

I applaud the Judge. The girls that cut the hair of the little girl went to great lengths to acquire scissors and then cut the hair. Why shouldn't they both have to have cut hair too? And hair will grow back. I think the mom that had to cut the hair should maybe think about teaching her daughter a lesson and that a little shorter hair may help her daughter not be a bully. If I was the judge I would have let the little girls mom cut the hair of the girl that assaulted her daughter.

Good for the judge. I'm all for logical consequences. This one will stick with the girl and hopefully help her see that what she did was very wrong. He tried to find a way that would involve less punishment, which doesn't usually work, and more thoughtfulness--giving the girl more reason to understand how her actions affect other people. I do wonder, however, where the little three-year-old's mother was at the time that this was able to even happen.

"If I was the judge I would have let the little girls mom cut the hair of the girl that assaulted her daughter."
Then you would be a judge looking for a new job. If your son gives my son a black eye do I get to hit your son so he'll have a black eye also? Instead of teaching hate the mother of the girl who got her hair cut had the opportunity to teach her daughter forgiveness and love. Revenge doesn't bring long term satisfaction.

Actually, in many cases the principle of "an eye for an eye" can be
great teaching principle to people, if not taken to extremes (which in this case
it wasn't). It helps perpetrators understand the feelings and emotions they
forced upon their victims, which is then usually an additional deterrent to them
not doing something similar again.
In this case, every time they look in the mirror it will serve as a great reminder to the perpetrators of their unlawful conduct until their own hair grows back... which will take many months... all without enduring any physical pain and no more emotional trauma than they themselves originally caused.
Unfortunately, parents of these juveniles often want only a little wrist-slap given, which leaves the victims feeling even more victimized, and leaves the perpetrators more likely to continue their unlawful behavior .
I sincerely believe this judge used Solomon-type wisdom in issuing this option, which the mothers of the offenders obviously went along with... originally. Now, sadly, one of the mothers appears to be wanting a bit of self publicity over this episode.

I agree with hhs88. However, perhaps the judge's method was unorthodox,
but it's certainly apparent the punishments given many do not deter their
bad behavior, and maybe this will serve this teenager better than the community
service hours. Too many get away with wrong things. Somehow we need to get
back to real discipline. People need to learn from their mistakes, not learn
how to work the system and get away with so much.
What kind of message is that mother sending her daughter by suing? Seriously!

In an separate incident, also before the judge, this girl has been cyber bullying another girl. This child is a bully. I have always believed the punishment needs to fit the crime. Her hair cut is minimal, hair grows back. The worst part of all this is the justification her mother is giving her by going on the news and whining. This child is getting fame for being mean. What is her mother teaching her? I wonder where she will be 5 even 10 years from now?

should have cut the mothers hair too.
The mother is the one who cut the hair, she did not have to, it was cut your daughters hair for less community service. And the mother took the deal for her daughter, does not look like the daughter fought the idea, she probably did not care, wanted punk hair anyway.
I do not think the judge should have given her the choice. Working out collecting garbage in the hot sun is more of a punishment anyway.

"bullies" are causing young boys and girls to take their own lifes. It
is about time someone steps up ( like this Judge) and puts the hammer down.
A quick note to the mother... you might want to be happy with this judge decision before you have to say goodbye to your daughter for life for bullying a kid so far that they take their life and she is found guilty of that crime.
Parents step up and keep an eye on your kids and their stupid behaviors. Help stop this garbage.

How can this mother be upset? The judge's actions were fair. She cut the little girls hair so her hair gets cut. Hair grows back. The fact that the older girls had to find a store, purchase scissors and go back and cut the 3 year old's hair makes them pretty guilty. The mother and her daughter is lucky the judge offered them such a simple way out.

The part that bothers me the most is that the mother is whining about the
punishment instead of providing an added punishment of her own. I would not only
have whacked off my kids hair, I would have whacked his privileges at home and
probably his behind, too!
Reminds me of the cartoon I recently saw. Two panels. The first panel, "20 Years ago", shows mom and dad with their child in front of a school teacher. They're holding up a report card. The kid is obviously in trouble, with mom and dad glaring at him, and demanding of him: "What is up with these grades??"
The second panel, "today", shows the parents and child, (with a smirk on his face), they're holding the report card, glaring at the teacher, and demanding of her: "What is up with these grades??". Why do parents continue to facilitate their delinquent children?

That the mother is not actively trying to teach her daughter to be a good person is precisely why she is the way she is. Though my kids--and, I'm guessing yours as well--are not perfect, my kids will never even start on that kind of path because of what we teach them at home. Any type of behavior that we believe is unacceptable is communicated as such very clearly to our kids. As a result, the problems we do have with them are minor.
People, very few of us are as good as we could be. I have met a couple of people in my life that I think are amazing, but that doesn't yet apply to me. Nevertheless, we as adults, we as parents, must give our full effort to being the best we can be as people, as parents, et cetera. When we think it is acceptable to do less than that, any variety of social ills are likely to be the result.

Yes, I was wrong. In reading the story more closely it sounds like the older girls who did the cutting are headed for more serious trouble if their parents don't get them turned around. The judge should be commended for his ruling.

You might be thinking of what you heard when clicking a church in Warcraft 2, although "Inno" was not part of that chant.
As I recall, WarCraft II's Paladins say that when they spawn.
Either that or it plays when you click on the Church building.

for a longer time I have a problem with the attribute table. I create the polygons on the map, I fill up the table with attributes. Then, if I click "save", all the data from the table are being deleted and in all fields of the table a word "error" does appear. After the restart of the program, only that columns containing the number values are being kept. That ones which contain the words are deleted and the word "null" does appear in all the fields. Is somebody able to help me?
When saving features get a new feature id (from a temporary negative feature id to their "real" feature id). The attribute table keeps track of the features listed in it by id. As soon as they are saved they become unavailable with that id. And the row turned to "ERROR".
With commit d43c89ae that was fixed. QGIS handles the transition as if the original features were removed and the new features were added. That way the old rows disappear and new rows are loaded.
Most likely the columns are defined as "numeric".
The problem is: QGIS lets you input any value into attribute table fields. If you input text into numeric fields, everything will look ok until you try to save the edits. Then it will fail to save text into the numeric fields.
There have been discussions about adding warnings to notify users if they input invalid values. They should be added in future versions.

Let $X$ and $Y$ be simply connected open regions of $\mathbb{C}$, and let $Z \subset X$ be a Cantor set. Assume we have a homeomorphism $f$ from $X$ to $Y$, which is holomorphic on $X \setminus Z$. Is $f$ necessarily holomorphic on $X$?
This belongs to the subject of holomorphic removability. See this Wiki article for more references. In particular, the article implies that any set with Hausdorff dimension smaller than $1$ is holomorphically removable, and if its Hausdroff dimension is greater than $1,$ it is not. If it is equal to $1,$ you remain puzzled.
Yes, if $Z$ has Hausdorff 1-dimensional measure $0$. Then for any $\epsilon > 0$ you can cover $Z$ by a finite number of disks the sum of whose circumferences is less than $\epsilon$. The integral of $f$ over the boundary of the union of these disks is bounded by a constant times $\epsilon$. Use this together with Morera's theorem.
Removability with respect to homeomorphisms is different from the removability with respect to bounded functions mentioned in another answer.
In particular, it is not necessary to have Hausdorff dimension at most 1. Indeed, any quasicircle is removable with respect to homeomorphisms, as mentioned by Hrant.
For much more complicated sets, see Jeremy Kahn's thesis "Holomorphic Removability of Julia sets": He shows that many Julia sets of quadratic polynomials are in fact removable.
(As above, we consider the set in question to be compact.)
In particular, he discusses the notion of "absolute area zero": A set $K$ has absolute area zero if there is no conformal isomorphism from the complement of $K$ to the complement of some set with positive area. Any such set is removable, and any Cantor set that is well-surrounded has absolute area zero.
On the other hand, as has been noted elsewhere, there are many examples of sets that are not holomorphically removable. The simplest example of a Cantor set would be a Cantor set of positive measure. More interesting examples are provided by Chris Bishop, as cited in Misha's answer.
EDIT: You may also wish to look at the paper "Removability theorems for Sobolev functions and quasiconformal maps" by Peter Jones and Stas Smirnov, which contains a number of sufficient conditions for conformal removability: http://www.unige.ch/~smirnov/papers/hr-j.pdf
Graczyk and Smirnov use these criteria to prove removability of a large class of Julia sets.
Yes, if the Cantor set has measure zero. This is a consequence of the Measurable Riemann Mapping Theorem which guarantees that the map is quasiconformal, combined with the theorem that if a quasiconformal map is conformal almost everywhere then it is conformal.
Yes, if $H_1(E)=0$. For every $1< t\leq 2$ there are examples of Cantor sets of Hausdorff dimension $t$ which are non-removable. Of course there are also examples of $t$-dimensional sets which are removable (e.g. quasicircles). Complete characterization of removable sets is an interesting and open problem.
In Theorem 3 of this paper, for every $\alpha>1$, Chris Bishop constructs examples of Cantor sets $E\subset {\mathbb C}$ whose Hausdorff dimension is in the interval $(1, \alpha)$ and homeomorphisms $f: {\mathbb C}\to {\mathbb C}$ which are conformal outside of $E$, but are not conformal on $E$. Furthermore, in his examples, the set $f(E)$ has zero Lebesgue measure.

From resolution to reality
Experts say exercise key to weight loss
|Credit: MCT
To do so, local weight-loss and fitness experts say, requires a combination of inner motivation, determination, discipline and, most importantly, patience.
"People make big mistakes in that they think they can change big things," says Lisa Sanders, assistant clinical professor of internal medicine and education at Yale School of Medicine and the author of "The Perfect Fit Diet."
Sanders says anyone who keeps a food diet for a week is likely to discover what they are doing wrong. She says if people could make one specific change, even a small one, like deciding to forgo the french fries at McDonald's, they are likely to have more success.
But, Sanders adds, "People need to exercise more."
"Change is hard, but weight loss is less important than being fit," she said. "It's more important to be fit than to be thin. You know it's the right thing to do. When you diet, the more weight you lose, the harder it is to keep it off. But with exercise, it's exactly the opposite, the more you exercise, the more it's easier to keep exercising because you become more fit."
The problem, says Mary Jo Brennen, health and wellness director at the Torrington YMCA, is people expect to become fit fast.
"Most people make the mistake of going too hard, too fast," she says. "They have a huge goal and they go full-bore, and it's too much and they stop. I tell people to start small with achievable goals."
For instance, if your ultimate goal is to lose 50 pounds, start by determining to lose 8 pounds in six weeks.
But Dr. Paul Lessak, a Waterbury Ph.D. who has worked in weight loss for 25 years, says weight loss is more than counting calories and looking at numbers on a scale. Most people who overeat do so for psychological reasons, he says. It's critical to understand those reasons and remedy them before any reasonable weight loss can take place.
"The first thing I want to do is understand the causes of the problem," Lessak says. "We want to correct the problem. With a typical 50-year-old, most of their problems are related to psychological overeating, emotional overeating, bad eating behaviors, negative lifestyle habits. They have all these overeating triggers. I'll work with them to correct those problems. The reason why they're gaining weight is because of all these red lights."
Lessak quotes grim statistics on diets.
"If you get together 200 people who are going to go on a diet, you'll find that if you follow them, only five of those will ever lose the weight they set out to lose," he said. "The alarming statistic is that of the five who reach their goal, only one of them will keep it off. Of the four who hit their goal and the 195 who never hit their goal, most of them will gain all their weight back and then some. What it's saying is, 'If you want to gain weight, you go on a diet.'"
In a country where consumers spend an estimated $35 billion on weight-loss products annually, many researchers have found that although it has a small initial effect, dieting does not work in the long run. A 2007 study by UCLA researchers found those on diets typically lose 5 percent to 10 percent of their initial weight in the first six months, but that at least one-third to two-thirds of people on diets regain more weight than they lost within four to five years. The UCLA analysis looked at 31 long-term studies of diets.
"Diets do not lead to sustained weight loss or health benefits for the majority of people," said Traci Mann, UCLA associate professor of psychology and lead author of the study.
Nevertheless, some people do manage to lose weight and keep it off. And, increasingly, experts are placing more of an emphasis on being fit, regardless of what the scale says.
"It's not weight that kills you," Sanders said. "Weight is not as important as we thought. It's a lack of activity and weight is an element of that lack of activity."
Consequently, Brennen says, it's important to consult with a professional and have a clear plan in sight before you show up at the gym, determined to sweat yourself into a lather. Most gyms have a fitness coordinator who can point you in the right direction or set you up with a plan, often at no additional cost.
Glenell Morris, registered dietitian at Charlotte Hungerford Hospital in Torrington, recognizes time constraints can put a damper on a person's commitment to fitness. Both she and Sanders suggest tackling the problem in small doses. "People think they have to go out and exercise for an hour," Morris says. "If you are just starting out, you can do a 10-minute walk in the morning, 10 minutes in the afternoon and 10 minutes in the evening."
Sanders agrees. "You have to integrate this into your life," she says. "If you vowed to exercise, take a 30-minute walk every day or walk for 30 minutes every day at lunch time."
Sanders notes 60 percent of Americans described their lifestyle as sedentary. "If you walk a half an hour a day at least that's not sedentary," she says. "The greatest benefit is going from not doing anything to doing something."
Morris suggests people use the governmental guidelines on portion control (choosemyplate.gov) to combat what Brennen describes as "portion distortion" in the typical American diet.
"One of the easiest ways to portion out everything is make half the plate vegetables; one-fourth some kind of starch; one-fourth lean protein, chicken, fish or a lean cut of beef or pork," Morris says. She suggests baking or grilling rather than frying or sautéing in oil.
Most experts say a little bit of commitment and a changes like this can make a difference over time.

WEIRTON - Three area attorneys have launched a hotline to help landowners in the Tri-State Area who have legal questions surrounding the shale oil and gas industry.
Weirton attorneys Dan Guida and Jeff Rokisky, along with Jonathan Turak of Wheeling, have banded together to develop the Marcellus & Utica Shale Hotline for property owners in West Virginia, Ohio and Pennsylvania.
The idea, Guida said, is to make it easier for landowners to find the answers they need to questions surrounding shale contracts.
"Our three firms decided to work cooperatively," Guida said. "We just thought we needed to pool our resources together to adequately handle the volume of cases that are out there."
The three meet about once a week to go over the calls and review the facts of each, he said, and then jointly decide whether to take the case.
"If we decide to take the case or have an interest in exploring it further, we arrange a meeting. All the cases are taken on a contingency basis, so there's no money paid by the client and we only get paid if we win the case."
All of which makes them selective.
"Obviously, we can't take every case," Guida said. "With the number of calls we have coming in, we have to be selective. Maybe out of every 10 calls we take one or two cases, if that. People may have a bad deal, but you can't get out of every bad deal they may be stuck with it."
But in certain situations say, for instance, there are allegations of misrepresentation by landsmen, breach of contract or royalty payment, landowners fighting landowners, former landowners claiming reserved mineral rights Guida said they may be able to help.
"There's a lot of money at stake," Guida said. "It's our hope that, at least with the cases we do take, we'll be able to help these people. I'm not here to tell you everyone who has a bad deal has a case, because they don't."
Since it's a long-term commitment with far-reaching implications, landowners must be aware of more than just the lease payments and royalty percentages. "People are pulling out their contracts and realizing they didn't know the gas company could pool properties they way they do, or that they'd be allowed to take an easement across their property to lay a pipeline and not pay for it, or they didn't didn't recognize additional issues that might come up," he said. "Or they may not understand the language of the contracts, or there's conflicting language."
Guida said they started the hotline a little over a month ago and have been getting dozens and dozens of calls.
"If you look up and down the river, you're talking couple thousand square miles of property," he said. "The larger the county, the more area and the more landowners. Everybody thinks Chesapeake's the only company coming in, but there's probably a dozen more leasing companies or gas companies coming in and getting people to sign up. When you start thinking about how many property owners are out there, how many people, how many leases have been signed, the numbers are (staggering.)"
The three attorneys offer free consultation, and can be reached by calling (800) 388-2529. If they take the case, it's on contingency which means they don't get paid unless they win.
"Obviously, we're not going to take case we don't think we can win or we aren't sure we can win," he said. "We're spending a lot of time, effort, energy and money ... we're not going to do that, or we're trying not to do that, unless we have a legitimate shot of winning."

The 5 Stupidest Ways Movies Deal With Foreign Languages
Sometimes people put foreign languages in movies. Aside from this being treasonously un-American, they hardly ever do it right.
Here are some of the most distracting attempts:
#5. Foreigners Are Like Lassie
Everyone knows the scene where Lassie barks at her family, and the family responds: "What is it girl? Timmy's fallen down the well again?" Well, first of all, Timmy never actually fell down a well. Just down mine shafts, off cliffs and into rivers, lakes and quicksand. Don't you feel dumb now.
Fun discrimination fact: Every dog that played Lassie was male, due to male collies having a "better, fuller coat." Also, none of them were black. Just saying.
For our purposes, the key point is that apparently Lassie's owners' intelligence is even more remarkable than Lassie's because they can understand dog language. Of course, they don't actually speak dog language back to Lassie because that would be beneath them, and Lassie needs to remember her place.
Beneath the oppressive feet of the patriarchy.
OK maybe Lassie shouldn't be expected to be able to speak English with her dog vocal cords. But what about the Chinese? Studies indicate that Chinese people may be capable of learning to make basic English sounds. But you wouldn't know it when they show up in movies. Take the Amazing Yen from the Ocean's Eleven movies.
The one in the Mao hat.
He doesn't speak a word of English. Oh, he's understanding it perfectly. He just chooses to speak Mandarin, because it's a funny sounding language. Of course, Danny Ocean's entire crew understands everything he says perfectly despite never indicating that they can speak a word of it. I realize they're smart crooks, but every single one fluent in Mandarin Chinese? Really?
Even Scott Caan?
Star Wars does the exact same thing for a number of characters: Chewbacca, R2D2, Lando's weird little copilot.
That guy.
They roar or beep or mumble gibberish and their English-speaking companions understand perfectly and speak English back to them. Han Solo in particular seems to understand every alien language out there, including Wookie-talk, Greedo-talk and Jabba-talk, which seems a little out of character since he doesn't seem like the type to listen to Rosetta Stone while flying around the galaxy. But fuck if he's going to talk to them in their own language. He's a space American and you're going to listen to him in space English or go home.
This may be how aliens see Han.
#4. Speaking In English With Accents
To avoid making people read subtitles, foreign-speaking characters are often played by actors speaking English with foreign accents (usually the accent of the language they're supposed to be speaking, but we're not picky, as long as it's foreign). English so you can understand, with the accent so you know they're actually supposed to be speaking foreign to each other.
The most memorably failed example of this is probably The Hunt for Red October starring Sean Connery. My brother and I called him Captain "Rabius." You know. Because he sounded like he had rabies. You know, like there was foam in his mouth.
We were 11 and 14, OK.
While that convention can sometimes works for real languages, it's usually a mess in outer space.
Take this scene from Babylon 5. You can tell both of those aliens are the same race because of their hair, but why does one of them talk like Dracula while one of them seems to be American? Are they actually speaking English in this scene or are they supposedly speaking Dracula? Is the whole alien race supposed to speak in Dracula accents? Is the American one a race traitor? Or is one guy from that planet's Transylvania and the other guy from that planet's America? I can't watch Babylon 5 too long without passing out from rolling my eyes too much but I don't think they ever really explain any of this.
The episode where it turns out aliens kidnapped Jack the Ripper
has caused more self-facepalm injuries than that common housefly.
Not only can screwing up fake accents make your show hilariously lame, you can even accidentally offend a whole race of people. In the Star Wars prequels, the Trade Federation creatures talk with what appear to be a racist's interpretation of a Chinese accent, which actually turns out to be a white actor's honest interpretation of a Thai accent. Add the fact that the Trade Federation is greedy and cowardly, a common old school stereotype of "Orientals," and you've got a recipe for offending a whole bunch of people you weren't even thinking about.
May not be actual quotes from movie.
#3. Universal Translators
Star Trek and other similar shows get away with not inventing a new alien language every episode with the "universal translator" trick. They put a device in the show's universe that automatically translates alien languages so all the listeners understand it in their language.
Fine, so the aliens in this clip are speaking Ferengi or whatever, and the Enterprise crew hears them in English. And sure, we'll go along with their mouth shapes perfectly matching the English words, even though it should look like a badly dubbed kung fu flick.
Like the kind Michael Winslow used to imitate to entertain millions of young children and other easily amused people.
But when Worf is trying to teach his crewmates Klingon terms, how does he let the translator know not to translate them to English? Does he have to put verbal HTML tags around them? Take this exchange for instance ...
RIKER: Something wrong, Mister Worf?
WORF: I am experiencing nIb'poH. The feeling I have done this before.
Why does the translator not turn "nib'poH" into "deja vu"? Does it have a slightly different nuance in Klingon? If so, you'd think at least 10 percent of words coming through the universal translator would stay garbled in alien, but almost every alien race the Enterprise meets can talk fluently with the crew with nary an untranslatable word or awkward expression. It's up to Data, the android who was made by and raised with humans, to humorously misunderstand simple expressions.
Data's hilarious misunderstandings of Picard's orders were a central part of the show.

I like DirectJNgine. I tried to DirectJNgine with struts2 integration but it seems impossible, it seems not work with MVC frameworks is that right? For example struts2. If you can do to give some clarification. Thank you, sorry my English not good
23 Nov 2009 11:15 PM #153
DirectJNgine is only integrated with the servlet API at this moment.
The layer on top of the engine that supports the servlet API is thin, and it should be possible to integrate it with other frameworks/libraries, but at this moment I know of no one who has attempted to integrate DirectJNgine with Struts 2.
That said, I think you can install the DJN servlet and make it coexist with Struts 2, but whether this is applicable will depend on how you plan to use DJN. Deep integration might require extra work, but just using it to handle some chores should be possible.Pedro Agulló, Barcelona (Spain) - pagullo.soft.dev at gmail.com

DirectJNgine / Spring Integration with Session Support
Good morning,
We have been working with the djn-spring-1.1-rc1 library and have made a bunch of updates to the Spring Integration adding support for sessions.
I have attached the source code and configuration files required for this to work.
Basically it attempts to locate the Spring bean in the session first and if found uses that instance for invocation of the method, otherwise it asks Spring for the appropriately named bean.
This is a very very rough first attempt at it and believe me there are many many opportunities for refactoring and improving this code but I wanted to get it out there for others to take a look at, possibly use and suggest improvements.

Support for state management in DJN
After several request from DJN users I have dedided to add support for making it possible to access the following information easily from a DJN method:
- HttpSession
- ServletContext
- HttpServletRequest
- HttpServletResponse
- HttpServlet
- ServletConfig
Besides, I am providing support for session and application scoped actions too.
I have implemented this as an extension built on top of the DJN core, as I strongly feel that state management is an orthogonal concern, but I will include this in the same JAR, to make things easy
Here is what I plan to support...
Accessing the session, request, response, etc. from a DJN method
You can acces the session, servlet context, request, response, servlet and servlet configuration using the WebContext and WebContextManager classes, as shown in the following code:
public class WebContextManagerTest { public static class WebContextInfo { public int callsInSession = 0; public int callsInApplication = 0; public String sessionId; } @DirectMethod public WebContextInfo test_webContext() { WebContext context = WebContextManager.get(); HttpSession session = context.getSession(); ServletContext application = context.getServletContext(); // Keep a counter of how many times we have called // this method in this session Integer callsInSession = (Integer)session.getAttribute("callsInSession"); if( callsInSession == null ) { callsInSession = new Integer(0); } callsInSession = new Integer(callsInSession.intValue() + 1); session.setAttribute("callsInSession", callsInSession); // Keep a counter of how many times we have called // this method in this application Integer callsInApplication = (Integer)application.getAttribute("callsInApplication"); if( callsInApplication == null ) { callsInApplication = new Integer(0); } callsInApplication = new Integer(callsInApplication.intValue() + 1); application.setAttribute("callsInApplication", callsInApplication); // Return status information WebContextInfo result = new WebContextInfo(); result.callsInApplication = callsInApplication.intValue(); result.callsInSession = callsInSession.intValue(); result.sessionId = context.getSession().getId(); return result; } }
To make an action session-scoped, just use the @ActionScope annotation as follows:
@ActionScope(scope=Scope.SESSION) public class SessionStatefulActionTest { private int count = 0; @DirectMethod public synchronized int test_getSessionCallCount() { this.count++; return this.count; } }
Making an action application-scoped
To make an action application-scoped, just use the @ActionScope annotation as follows:
@ActionScope(scope=Scope.APPLICATION) public class ApplicationStatefulActionTest { private int data = 0; private int count = 0; private int pollData = 0; @DirectMethod public synchronized int test_getApplicationData() { this.data++; int result = this.data; // Trick to allow multiple test executions if( this.data == 2) { this.data = 0; } return result; } @DirectMethod public synchronized int test_getApplicationCallCount() { this.count++; return this.count; }
This functionality is currently in alpha, and feedback from DJN users will be welcome. I haven't polished all concurrency related issues, and will greatly appreciate you guys take a look at it.
The attached JARs include the corresponding classes and source code.
@vlagorce & other people working in DJN extensions
Since some DJN internals have changed to make the DJN core completely independent of state management, you will probably have to make some little changes to your code. Sorry about that, guys.
Besides, for those interested in having session and application scoped actions, you will probably be able to rely on the new functionality provided by DJN instead of having to implement it on your own.Pedro Agulló, Barcelona (Spain) - pagullo.soft.dev at gmail.com

I am pleased to DirectJNgine becoming more and more powerful. Just seen DirectJNgine-Spring, regret that so little information and no examples and documentation, and I hope we can DirectJNgine combined with the spring should be nice to do! I wish you success in your work that I have been watching the better DirectJNgine!
26 Nov 2009 11:08 AM #157
First of all thank you very much for addressing Session support in the DirectJNgine.
Having taken a look at the update, and already integrated it with the SessionAware spring integrator that I posted yesterday, I would like to suggest a simple modification to the RequestProcessorBase class that I believe will make it easier for integrating other bean controllers such as Spring
In the method below, you grab the RegisteredMethod in which to service the request and allow the dispatcher to execute the method against the action instance
protected Object dispatch(Class<?> instanceClass, Method method, Object[] parameters) { return getDispatcher().dispatch( instanceClass, method, parameters ); } // TODO: this is NOT something PollRequestProcessor will use. Handle somewhere else! protected Object dispatch( String actionName, String methodName, Object[] parameters ) { assert !StringUtils.isEmpty(actionName); assert !StringUtils.isEmpty(methodName); assert parameters != null; RegisteredMethod method = getMethod( actionName, methodName); Object result = dispatch(method.getActionClass(), method.getMethod(), parameters); return result; }
I had to override the JSON request processor to handle this situation as below:
protected Object dispatch( String actionName, String methodName, Object[] parameters ) { assert !StringUtils.isEmpty(actionName); assert !StringUtils.isEmpty(methodName); assert parameters != null; RegisteredMethod method = this.getMethod(actionName, methodName); LOGGER.debug("actionName = " + method.getActionName() + ", methodName = " + method.getMethod().getName()); Object result = this.dispatch(method, parameters); return result; } protected Object dispatch(RegisteredMethod method, Object[] parameters) { return ((SessionAwareSpringDispatcher)this.getDispatcher()).dispatch(method, parameters); }
I could have used the action class name, but this puts an invalid dependency on the action name to class name association.
I believe this small refactoring would make it easier for people to override the default behavior in the dispatch hierarchy for action instantiation, or in my case bean lookup by action name.
Again I thank you and I am sure the community thanks you for your efforts.
26 Nov 2009 1:48 PM #158
Good afternoon,
I have quickly updated the session aware Spring Integrator that I posted a few days ago to make the latest version of the DirectJngine 1.2-Alpha1.
Again, it is very very rough and could probably do with some refactoring / cleanup but but is functional.
To the author of the original Spring Integration, I updated some of your classes to match the new DirectJngine so please take a look.

I didn't do it the way you suggest because poll methods need to be taken into account too, and I implemented them so they are 'global', i.e., they do not belong to a RegisteredAction, and therefore I can't pass the action name to the dispatch method for poll methods (sigh).
But I can pass the class, and it is really useful sometimes, for example to process custom annotations -which is what I do to support stateful actions.
As to way poll methods do not belong to a RegisteredAction, that made lots of sense when we had no stateful actions, as it made implementing some things much easier back then. Changing that now would change the published API...but I might do, because that part of the API is rarely used, to be fair...On the other hand, I was aware that if I had made that change, I would have had the RegisteredAction available, and passing that to dispatch would make additional info available, including the action name you want...
So, I need to consider carefully how or whether to pass the additional info you suggest. Let me think about that, ok?
Thanks for the feedback
