TUCSON — An organizer of day laborers was pepper-sprayed and arrested after he lay down beneath a U.S. Border Patrol vehicle in an unsuccessful bid to thwart the arrest of another man in Tucson, authorities said Monday.
Raul Alcaraz Ochoa was pepper-sprayed by a Border Patrol agent Sunday after he refused to come out from underneath the vehicle, Tucson police spokesman Fabian Pacheco said.
Alcaraz was protesting the arrest of a driver whose vehicle was pulled over after officers got a call from someone who reported two children being put into a car trunk, Pacheco said.
Police were concerned about the possibility of child abduction.
Immigrant rights supporters planned a rally outside a Tucson police building to protest the arrests of Alcaraz and the driver.
Driver Rene Huerta Meza, 30, was handcuffed as officers who made the stop investigated further and discovered a woman and five children in the two-door hatchback.
A 7-year-old girl and two 4-year-old boys in the vehicle were Meza's children, while the woman was the mother of two other 4-year-old boys.
Officers learned that none of the children was restrained inside the vehicle and found two children in the vehicle's hatchback area, Pacheco said.
Police said they learned that Meza's driving privileges had been suspended after he presented a Mexican voter registration card as a form of identification.
Meza's arrest for driving with a suspended driver's license prompted an immigration status check. The check is required under a section of Arizona's 2010 immigration law that says authorities must verify the immigration status of all arrested people, Pacheco said.
Pacheco said Alcaraz then started to interfere with officers, telling them that authorities were tearing apart families in arresting illegal immigrants.
The police spokesman said he didn't know whether Meza was in the country legally.
The Border Patrol didn't immediately return a message seeking comment on the arrests.
Alcaraz said he lay down beneath the vehicle and refused to come out because he saw the children in the car crying as their father was put into a police car. He said he thrust himself into the situation because he sees Latinos getting harassed by authorities on a regular basis and he's tired of the injustice.
Alcaraz said he was released from custody Sunday and doesn't know the charges against him. He said Meza was still in Border Patrol custody.

1930 Ford Model A - The Chadly CoupeWritten by on July 19, 2013 Contributors: Damon Lee, Tommy Lee Byrd You Can't Judge it by its Cover
They say you can't judge a book by looking at the cover. But what about a magazine? I just got back from logging over 4,000 cross-country miles in a radically chopped Model A coupe when a friend emailed telling me to check out Hot Rod magazine's Road Kill on its YouTube channel.
It was truly amazing, the real-life adventure I had just completed turned out to be a classic example of life imitating art. Unknowingly, I had knocked-off Hot Rod's Rat Rod versus Lamborghini 24-hour comparo. I watched up until the rat rod ran out of gasoline when I started to imagine what the headlines would have read had this been a real-life shootout between Hot Rod and STREET RODDER. I surmised: Hot Rod drives a rat rod three miles and runs out of gas. Hot Rod rents a 600hp Lamborghini and drives it around L.A. STREET RODDER drives a hot rod 4,000 miles without a hitch. STREET RODDER drives an 840hp Drag Pak Challenger down to Lake Tahoe's shore and barbecues. It's all true, and had I known beyond writing a tech piece I was going to chronicle a road trip I would have taken more pictures.
The saga of the cross-country banzai run in the Chadly coupe shaped up fast. On July 22, 2012, I got a call from my friend Henry Mohrschadlt at Newport Classic Cars saying he'd just bought a hot rod Model A on eBay and the shipping company wanted $1,500 to haul it out to California. After finding out the chopped coupe was located close to St. Augustine, Florida, near some close childhood friends, I volunteered to fly out, and drive it home. On July 26, I was at a Coker Tire roundtable held at the STREET RODDER office in Irvine, California, where Corky Coker extended us all an open invitation to visit Coker's headquarters in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Afterward I pitched a story idea to Editor Brian Brennan for me to swing by Chattanooga, and put some 3,500 test miles on the Coker Excelsior radials we'd just discussed in the roundtable.
It was Friday afternoon, August 3, 2012, when I landed at Jacksonville International Airport. The next morning my friend Marla drove me in the pouring rain over to Hastings, Florida, to pick up the hot rod. The '30 Model A with a 7-1/2-inch chop is monikered the Chadly coupe because a cat named Chadly Johnson of Eau Claire, Wisconsin, spent three years meticulously building the car. I spoke with Johnson several times about how he'd equipped the coupe before I left for Florida. His concept was to combine a traditional hot rod with retro-looking modern technology to make the car as reliable as possible. Knowing this inspired my confidence in the car's ability to complete the trip.
For a solid, foundation Johnson bought a Pete & Jakes Deuce chassis with the 'rails pinched for a Model A. Where he sourced the car's body shell and powerplant would strike terror in the blood of any preservationist into keeping cars stock. The body on the Johnson coupe came from an unmolested parade car with original paint. For the mill Johnson plucked the 331-inch Hemi out of an extremely low-mileage '54 Chrysler New Yorker, and plopped six Holley 94s on top.
It poured rain all weekend, so I spent the time inside Marla's St. Augustine Beach garage checking the coupe over to make sure it had gear oil in its 3.23:1-geared 9-inch Ford, and '63 Corvette close-ratio Muncie four-speed. I discovered some potentially fatal bad connections on the ignition switch that were done after Johnson sold the car to its second owner in Florida. It was obvious the Stewart-Warner gauges weren't installed by the same guy who wired the car. The Hemi smoked and ran with a miss from oil wicking down the spark plug threads. When I dropped in a new set of Autolite plugs I discovered there weren't spark plug washers on the plugs I took out. I was glad I thought to check the plugs because it made a big difference, but discoveries like this were starting to concern me that there might be more surprises waiting somewhere out on the road.
The first leg of the trip took place early August 6, 2012, and was from Anastasia Island, Florida, to Chattanooga, Tennessee. The 500-mile jaunt at 2,800 rpm straight up through Georgia in record heat and random heavy rainstorms proved the bias-ply Coker Firestones to be pretty good tires. Sure, out on the highway the Firestones hunted as bias-ply are known to do, but when I locked it up hard numerous times in murderous Atlanta rush-hour traffic they stopped as good as anything. That said, it didn't hurt to have front disc brakes either. Midday August 7, I left Coker Tire shod with Excelsior radials. Leaving Chattanooga on I-24 there's a winding climb back into Georgia that heads toward Nashville. Right away the coupe had a whole new feel, it drove straight as an arrow. I felt confident to start running at 3,000-3,500 rpm. I can't tell you how fast that was, but on the steep grades I passed every new Lexus and Infiniti I could find. From Nashville the next stretch was way up to Lincoln, Nebraska, to visit "Speedy" Bill and Damon Lee at Speedway Motors. Leaving late in the evening August 9, from Lincoln, I really started to fly because I was scheduled to be at the Lug Nuts Car Show & Barbecue at South Lake Tahoe on Sunday, August 12. I showed up in Reno, Nevada, on August 11, with plenty of time to check out Hot August Nights, and then roll up to Tahoe. Early Monday morning, August 13, I headed the Chadly coupe via Death Valley down to its new home in Newport Beach, California.

It was purely a chance meeting that I bumped into fellow STREET RODDER contributor Josh Mishler with his family at a rest stop near the Kentucky/Illinois state line."Speedy" Bill was quite gracious and instructed Damon Lee (Speedway Motors) to make sure the coupe got anything it needed from Speedway Motors' catalog to keep it going.In all its rustiness, here's Coker with the shoebox Ford Honest Charley's Garage is building for the 2013 Road Tour.With a 7-1/2-inch chop, visibility is nil. Those headers dumping in front of the doors stink. The worst part was enduring carbon monoxide poisoning for mile after mile.Notice the Vicegrips pinching off the fuel line? The only hint of trouble was after gun-booting around Chattanooga for 20 minutes trying to find Coker, the Holley 94s gurgled-up gasoline.Without pulling a wheel it's hard to tell the coupe has disc brakes. It's even harder to detect the generator is a PowerGEN.St Augustine to Chattanooga Brand-X 20W-50 produced 39 psi maximum. An oil change at Honest Charley's Garage with Champion Classic & Muscle 20W-50 jumped it to 45 psi, consuming only one quart in 3,500 miles.The first miles were the scariest. When I picked the coupe up it had 4 psi tire pressure. Pumping the bias-ply Coker Firestones up to 32 psi restored handling.
Coker Excelsior Stahl Sport radials are sized in exactly the same denominations as a bias-ply tire. KeithCoker fills them with nitrogen because it contains less water than air, and that means future wheel rusting is less of a problem. After 3,500 miles it was confirmed nitrogen holds tire pressure settings better.Coker's cleaner way, no wheel weights showing. Static balanced means the weights are placed on the wheel's inside only. Stamped steel wheel centers aren't true. Lug centric means a special adapter is used to ensure more accurate tire balancing.A good friend, Coker was insistent his crew at Honest Charley's give the Chadly coupe a good safety check. Brown mentioned it's real important to keep the kingpins greased on '32 axles.Made in Memphis since 1932, this Walker Deuce radiator kept the hard-charging '54 Hemi motor cool in last summer's heat wave.

5 Ways to Avoid Your Terrible Parents' Mistakes
#2. Observing Normal People in the Wild
When I go to the grocery store, it's pretty much guaranteed I'll come across some woman at the end of her rope, arguing through gritted teeth with a hyperactive four year old on why he needs to stop running and grabbing shit off of the shelves.
This is a surprisingly informative learning opportunity, seeing how different parents handle the same situations. I don't make it obvious, but I hang around in their section for a bit longer than I need just to see how they deal it. Does this parent have an actual technique they're following? Are they just acting out of frustration? Are they thinking about the example they're setting for the annoying little bastard?
Now, you wear that and you think about what you did
Sorry, I shouldn't call their children little bastards. That's my dad talking there.
Speaking of which, when I was eight we all went grocery shopping together (me, Dad and my brother), and as the cashier was ringing up the last of our stuff, my brother (who was seven at the time) reminded dad that he had forgotten to put the bag of potatoes up there with the rest of the groceries so we could pay for them. They were still on the bottom of the cart. My dad thanked him, at the same time shooting him a look that made it clear he was only restraining himself due to the witnesses.
When we got back into the car, he lost it on my brother. Luckily, there was no physical violence in that one, but I'm not sure that made it any better. In a fit of screaming and cursing, he "explained" that if there's something left on the bottom of the cart, you shut your stupid fucking mouth because it's there on purpose. You know, where the cashier can't see it.
Yes, my dad was teaching my seven year old brother how to steal a two-dollar sack of potatoes. He later taught him (before price scanners were a thing) how to switch the price tags on items because cashiers rarely double-checked when ringing it up.
And that's how I got a TV for under a dollar!
This is the same brother who would later spend the vast majority of his life in prison for multiple thefts and burglaries.
#1. Asking Non-Crazy People for Parenting Tips
I eventually made it a point to start small talk with some of my coworkers, who I had previously avoided like the plague because I hate people who make golf jokes and speak in the artificially polite tone I like to call Office Voice. I could blame Dad for that but I think that one is just me.
But when I made myself man up and talk to people, I found that almost every mom and dad in existence will talk about parenting at even the slightest offhanded mention of the word. This annoys a lot of people, but as soon as I had kids I found myself slipping in some questions under the radar, trying to get advice from anyone who didn't show noticeable signs of a recent bar fight.
"Yes, our little Sarah is becoming quite the butcher."
I learned some of my most important lessons this way. "So when my kid gets old enough to draw on the walls with crayon, how do you handle that?" I didn't tell them that my dad would take care of it by throwing a half-full can of beer at us and screaming until our ears rang. I just masked a look of surprise and listened patiently as they unknowingly taught me about a child's "currency." That's to say finding out what they like to play with the most and taking that from them as punishment, carefully explaining to them why you're doing it. And if they repeat the bad action, doing it again until they break the habit.
So, wait... you're telling me that when my kid is throwing a fit because he wants his ball back, the best way to handle it isn't to down a bottle of vodka and fall asleep on the couch because he'll get over it? Holy shit. That was when I realized tha concepts like "grounding" a kid and actually discussing with them what they did wrong wasn't, as I had believed, just something they did on sitcoms because the script dictated it.
The infamous episode where Kimmy gets caught blowing a donkey.
As I've said, I knew to put on the brakes and not unleash a beatstorm on my kids just because they made a mess. But that fucked up sense of what's normal means you don't know how far to go in the other direction. I found myself in more than one full-fledged argument with a six year-old, debating him as if he were 20. The line of thinking was that since my parents treated me like shit, I should do the opposite and treat my own kids as equal adults.
But they're not. They're kids. Equal humans, absolutely. Equal adults? They have several more years of growing before they graduate into that. That's what you're there for. That's where talking to other parents helps -- knowing what's bad doesn't automatically tell you what's good.
And as for me, I can forgive my dad, but can never forget. And maybe my revenge is knowing that he's somewhere, watching me out-parenting him so hard that it makes his parenting skills look like a big pile of shit.
Be a good parent and buy your kid our book.

GENESEO, N.Y. -- SUNY Geneseo chemistry professor Wendy K. Pogozelski was among faculty members the State University of New York Board of Trustees named to a distinguished professorship at its meeting May 7.
The board appointed Pogozelski Distinguished Teaching Professor of Chemistry. The distinguished rank recognizes and honors mastery of teaching and constitutes the highest honor conferred by the university system on instructional faculty at state-operated campuses. All distinguished faculty in active service within SUNY are also members of the SUNY Distinguished Academy, established last year.
"One of the board's most exceptional honors is to confer the distinguished ranking upon some of our best and brightest faculty," said Board Chairman H. Carl McCall. "To earn one of the distinguished ranks, SUNY faculty members have shown a steadfast commitment to the students, faculty, and staff at their respective campuses and accomplished high achievement in their field. Congratulations to all of today's honorees."
The board described Pogozelski as "an exceptional teacher and widely-published researcher."
"In bestowing its highest faculty honor, SUNY proudly recognizes the extraordinary achievements of these faculty and the positive impacts they have had on SUNY, on the students they teach and mentor, and on their colleagues both on campus and across the globe," said SUNY Chancellor Nancy L. Zimpher. "Many thanks and congratulations to today's honorees."
For the prestigious distinguished teaching professorship to be conferred, candidates must have demonstrated consistently superior mastery of teaching, outstanding service to students, and commitment to their ongoing intellectual growth, scholarship and professional growth, and adherence to rigorous academic standards and requirements.
"I couldn't be more pleased about Wendy's appointment," said SUNY Geneseo President Christopher C. Dahl. "She has superior teaching skills and has profoundly shaped the lives and careers of scores of students. She is a widely-published, award-winning researcher and teach-scholar, a dedicated servant of the campus community and her profession, and a role model for students and the entire Geneseo community. For Wendy, teaching is not merely a profession; it's a calling, in the finest sense of the word."
Pogozelski has been recognized at the national level for the excellence of her teaching, as well as her research accomplishments with the Henry Dreyfuss Teacher-Scholar Award. She has mentored dozens of undergraduate researchers who not only learn from her internationally recognized work on mitochondrial DNA but conduct sophisticated, independent research of their own, leading nearly all of them to graduate program or medical schools.
Pogozelski is among 16 SUNY faculty members named this year to distinguished ranks. Since 1973, 45 Geneseo faculty members have received the rank. Since the program's inception in 1963, SUNY has appointed 966 faculty to distinguished ranks: 319 distinguished professorships; 294 distinguished service professorships; 348 distinguished teaching professorships; and five distinguished librarian professorships.

No. Unless you have some libraries which I am not aware of.
As Lundin said, you can not access MSAccess database with your compiler -- its just too freaken old. Get yourself a newer modern, free compiler, such as Dev-C++ at www.bloodshed.net or MS VC++ 2005 Express.

[2.2.1] Regression: Email Validator validates correct mail addresses as false
In Ext 2.2.1 the email-validator was changed a little bit to fix hanging browsers. (As explained in the changelog)
Unfortunatly this also broke validation for some valid emails. All emails containting a dash (-) are now not validated as correct email addresses.
You can easily check this behaviour in the form example page:
Enter the valid address: firstname.lastname@example.com - all ok
Enter the valid address: firstname.lastname@example.com - not validated as correct email.
You can check in an example of Ext 2.2 the email email@example.com correctly passes validation.
I tried to fix the bug myself changing the regular expression and undoing one of the added slashes of the change from 2.2 to 2.2.1, but that did not fix the Bug. I'm also not a RegExp guru, and don't know which bugs in browser where corrected by the change introduced in 2.2.1.
Could anybody provide a fixed RegExp?
15 Mar 2009 3:54 PM #2
Confirms this bug. I don't know why is that, but we can hope that v3 will be released sooner or later72

Not exactly.
The Ext 2.2 regexp was:
var email = /^([\w]+)(.[\w]+)*@([\w-]+\.){1,5}([A-Za-z]){2,4}$/;
This was fixed in Ext 2.2.1 by prefixing the . with a \:
var email = /^([\w]+)(\.[\w]+)*@([\w\-]+\.){1,5}([A-Za-z]){2,4}$/;
var email = /^([\w\-]+)(\.[\w\-]+)*@([\w\-]+\.){1,5}([A-Za-z]){2,4}$/;

More accurate
Here is a regular expression pulled from a larger, more RFC correct regex that should suffice for nearly all real world email addresses:

As I slowly explore the enormous world of Skyrim, I see all sorts of different symbols appear on my compass. I know they indicate that I should go in that direction to find something, and that the symbol tells what type of thing it is. Some are relatively easy to decipher, but many are not. So I'd like to know what the different symbols mean so that I can know whether I should seek them out or save them for later.

While reviewing "Suggested Edits" on Stack Overflow, I've noticed a lot of edits lately from the same user, and all of the edits consist of nothing but removing profanity. While I'm inclined to approve the edits, I'm wondering... should the editor instead be flagging these posts, as opposed to cleaning them up?
What is meta?
- Any Stack Exchange user can ask a question
- The community provides support, votes on ideas, and reports bugs
- Your voice helps shape the way Stack Exchange operates
Anyone can suggest an edit, so there's really no need to flag for a moderator if that's all that's needed. If the editor is leaving behind a lot of other problems that should be fixed, feel free to reject their edit as too minor or improve upon it.
Since I've got your attention and header jokes aside I believe that I am the one or one of the ones in the past 24 hours aggressively removing profanity from stack. I'd like to thank Pekka for taking the time to point me to various threads on meta that I was unaware off and of course without this knowledge I wouldn't be replying to all you folks. At no point did I think that my behaviour was bad never-mind did I think my actions would contribute to sparking of a debate on Meta.
It's worth mentioning that while I have been removing swear words I have also been removing 'noticeable' grammar mistakes and any spelling mistakes that is picked up by Firefox. Not all posts require improving in terms of the answer or spelling for that matter but contain unnecessary frustration ranting with swear words. Now I enjoy a good rant but I believe you can get your point out without swearing which a lot of my edits include.
Additional when reviewing edits it's important to check the page and not just the post, a lot of edits that I've done are on answers and then the questions on the same page which consists of re-tagging and spelling if required. - While this could be unfavourable too and let me know if it is. Maybe I should be looking at Edit as improving the actual questions or answers themselves rather than peoples grammar / spelling, again let me know.
Now I'm not defending myself just pointing out that I was trying to help that's all while gaining rep and I know that's unfavourable now. So it's no problem.
I just wish a someone like Pekka notified me soon, or maybe if I had my thinking hat on I wouldn't of wasted a few hours editing them as now I feel its wasted my evening lol, never mind your time rejecting or approving them. While I wasn't trying to beat the system as I'm fully aware once you hit 1K rep points on edits you can't get any more either and the 200 rep per a day so the reasoning of me doing this as I honestly thought I was doing something good. I love the rep system and I just wanted to jump straight in and get involved any way possible. I now know this isn't the way forward if I want to join the community of which I apologise and you can consider this behaviour stopped from myself from now.
Again thanks to Pekka and letting me know that I should improve my edits as from now I'll be doing much more when I click the EDIT button. Game on!
Do the edits fix all the errors in the post?
If a lot of edits are rejected (for wasting reviewers' time) edit privileges will be lost (and a good thing too).
Should the user be flagging? No, if all that's needed is to edit away the offending word. They should be editing. But if they only have enough reputation points to suggest edits, then they must either edit properly or not bother.
Reject or improve suggested edits which do not correct a substantial portion of the problems with the post. You can read my views on this at Too Minor rejection reason needs either to be reworded or removed
The minor nature of the edits aside, I believe that editing is the correct response here, over flagging. As long as the cursing in question is incidental -- i.e., not an insult or attack directed at another user -- the only thing that a mod would do would be to edit anyways.* Flags should be used when you yourself are incapable of taking the appropriate action.
If the usage seems to violate the "Be nice" rule, being directly addressed to another user, then a flag to alert a mod to review the poster's behavior might be warranted, on top of editing to remove the immediate eyesore.
*Also note that there is no firm community consensus on the editing/usage of curse words, (cf. Why was my comment edited?) (Meta-10k link only), depite management's stance.
They should also fix any other problems in the post, but it's good to have pro-active people keeping the site clean for corporate filters.
Editing is the correct response, unless they find a someone who is make a lot of posts with profanity in which case the moderators should be flagged, we've had problems with those types of posters before.
I would like to state that all the edits I made were in the interest of removing offensive language and not to stir up any arguments (which unfortunately seems to be the case).
Due to Stack Overflow being a site that is open to anyone to view, I was just protecting against those users who may find the content very offensive. I realise, now, that I should have flagged the content rather than edited it. This is fair enough.
Personally, I don't really care about swearing, but I am considerate of other people who may not share my views.


text: I'm looking for some books that are "lighter", if that makes sense. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely loved the Game of Thrones series so far - but those types of books take a lot out of me, and I need a break. Examples of books that are lighter reads, yet still really good: Anything by Brandon Sanderson (mistborn, way of kings - literally all of his books are good yet light), Dresden Files, Night Angel Trilogy, Name of the Wind, etc. Books that REALLY engross you, but they don't leave your head swimming figure out plots, characters, and everything in-between. Maybe light isn't the best word, but I don't know any others to explain it. Hopefully someone gets what I'm saying. If you do, I'm all up for suggestions.

Official Jackson County Damage Reports From Straight-Line Winds
Grand Ridge, FL - Several Trees Down
Greenwood, FL - Two Trees Down, including one across old US Road 1 mile north of the community
A line of storms moved through the wiregrass area on Monday, bringing with it heavy rain, wind, and even prompting a few severe thunderstorm warnings.
Heavy rain was falling all across the city of Troy, including Troy University's main campus.
Although there were a few flashes of lightning and rumbles of thunder during the storm's peak, there was no damage reported in Pike County.
However, the storms did grow stronger as they entered the Florida panhandle.
The National Weather Service in Tallahassee did issue Severe Thunderstorm Warnings along the line.
There were a couple of reports of straight-line wind damage in Jackson County, Florida.

Otherwise, any checksums which do not match, or which exist in one tree but not the other, are returned.

bit of a contrived example and playing to my OCD but nice for quick scripted output of listening ports which is sorted by port, ip address and protocol.
Goes through all files in the directory specified, uses `stat` to print out last modification time, then sorts numerically in reverse, then uses cut to remove the modified epoch timestamp and finally head to only output the last 10 modified files.
Note that on a Mac `stat` won't work like this, you'll need to use either:
find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 stat -f '%m%t%Sm %12z %N' | sort -nr | cut -f2- | head
or alternatively do a `brew install coreutils` and then replace `stat` with `gstat` in the original command.

When a Window is created and then moved down and to the right it experiences an abnormal resize. The window itself is taller and narrower but it's shadow remains the original size. Resizing seems to fix it up.

Both dev mode and production
Steps to reproduce the problem
Create a Window with a single '

Test case
public class Entry implements EntryPoint { @Override public void onModuleLoad() { Viewport v = new Viewport(); v.setWidget(new LaunchPanel()); RootLayoutPanel.get().add(v); } } public class LaunchPanel implements IsWidget { private final Widget w; public LaunchPanel() { TextButton b = new TextButton("Open Window"); b.addClickHandler(new ClickHandler() { @Override public void onClick(ClickEvent event) { Window w = new Window(); w.setHeadingHtml("A Window"); w.add(new HTMLPanel("
Move this window down and to the right.
" + "You should see an abnormal resize with the shadow remaining the original size.

Saudi Ambassador to the United States Adel A. Al-Jubeir responded to a July 31 letter by 225 members of Congress to the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud. In the letter, the Members noted the Saudi-sponsored Arab Peace Initiative and urged Saudi Arabia to make a dramatic gesture towards Israel as a confidence building measure to promote peace.
In his response, which was released today, Ambassador Al-Jubeir said that "over the years, Saudi Arabia has taken clear positions that attest to its desire to see this long-standing conflict resolved equitably and permanently," and outlined the requirements for peace which are enshrined in numerous international resolutions and contained in the Arab Peace Initiative.
Ambassador Al-Jubeir also reiterated the Kingdom's position that an incremental approach to peace, or one built on confidence-building measures, will not succeed. "It has not succeeded over the past three decades and, we believe, will not succeed today."
In the past, the Ambassador said, a number of confidence-building measures were undertaken, but no peace was achieved and that it is the Kingdom's "firm view that resolution of this conflict does require outlining the final settlement at the outset, followed by prompt resumption of negotiations on all final status issues – borders, Jerusalem, water, security and refugees – with a deadline set for their early conclusion. The focus must be on the final settlement and on the final peace, not on an incremental process. This will make the final outcome clear to all parties, and thereby undermine the ability of extremists on both sides to delay or derail the movement to peace."
Ambassador Al-Jubeir thanked the Members for their interest in promoting peace in the Middle East and underlined the importance of continued, active U.S. involvement necessary to effectively move toward peace: "It is also absolutely imperative for the United States to play an active and robust role in the negotiations, as history has shown."

I have an older vehicle that has AC, but it needs a recharge. It uses the older R12 refrigerant and it is very expensive and can be difficult to locate as it is not made in the US anymore. How do I convert it over to cheaper newer R134a? Can this be done without replacing the AC compressor?

Don's right. You do need to flush the old oil out of the system because they don't mix. Also it's difficult to flush the compressor so odds are it will not last i you don't replace it. The best thing to do is change the compressor out if its older at the same time, replacing all the o-rings too. R134 operates at higher pressures and it won't be as efficient, so you have to be careful not to overcharge. Older condensors designed for R12 might not cut it.
I have done it before. I just replaced all the seals and o-rings, cleaned out all of the old oil and then refilled with r-134a. That's about it. I did it on an '86 Volvo 740 and it worked really well.

I know that $(1+x)^{n} \geq 1+nx$ (Bernoulli's inequality). To get the stronger inequality you can probably use induction also. But is there an easier way? The extra term on the right seems to be an "error" term and looks like a Taylor series expansion.

What to expect with renewal
I posted an announcement about this, but I will repeat what I have found.
TDP has been renewed for another two years. I read this online and did not learn this from support, so this news doesn't necessarily mean much beyond we get two more years. No bugs have been fixed and no updates have been planned, as far as we know, though we will be contacting support to ask questions. THIS DOES MEAN IT IS SAFE TO KEEP YOUR PREMIUM THOUGH. Until we hear otherwise, we will regard this information as true as of June 15th.
What does this mean for Dollsters? Well, it doesn't mean much. It means moving isn't happening, however, it is not going to be eliminated completely. There are some things which you guys can immediately expect:
-Holiday events will be moved to there. The bugs have prevented us from doing a lot of things, so this will give us more freedom with it.
-Major dolling competitions and contests for nonpremium members.
-Writing and art that our current forums do not have a set place for.
-Newsletter on joint-site news and info!
-Site RP will continue as planned. No date of commencement has yet been announced, but work on those characters! It will come soon.
-Dollsters chat will be encouraged over avatar chat. We can monitor it for creeps, so its more kid-friendly.
-Adult discussions/threads can and should be posted on Dollsters in the adult forum.
This is subject to change. With the current post-twisting bug, RPing may be moved there just to keep things neat. All RPs will continue to be copied there regardless. Where you guys choose to be active is up to you, we will monitor both forums and continue to provide a safe area for you guys to flow between.
What does this mean for the moderating staff, particularly me and Miranda? We aren't going anywhere. Yes, we are all going to run Dollsters, unless someone resigns or is removed. I understand some folks may be wondering if us two in particular will leave because we are truthfully the most invested in a rescue site, but keep in mind that we also are highly invested in TDP. We are sticking around, so don't take it for granted.
We will be continuing to review old bans upon member requests. We know we offered Dollsters as a fresh start and the same will translate here. We just require you guys to be mature. Don't expect it in every case though and yes, this news also means we will continue to ban here. We also will continue to ban on Dollsters for unreasonable users.
Here's to another two years folks!
YAY!!!!!!!! this is the best news i have heard this week lol soooooo glad!
Yes!! I was really worried about that, but now we're good! :D

Confirmed: There will be no new Need For Speed game in 2014Written by: / / 5 Comments
During EA's most recent quarterly financial briefing last week, the publisher mentioned that there is no new Need For Speed game in development for release in 2014 – a statement that was then confirmed by Need For Speed developer Ghost Games.
Writing in a blog post on the official Need For Speed site, Ghost Games executive producer and general manager Marcus Nilsson began by thanking the fans for their support and dedication to the Need For Speed franchise, stating that the studio exists to "make games that are constantly improving… games that push the boundaries of technology and innovation."
"Most importantly," Nilsson wrote, "we exist to make games that excite our fans."
For these reasons, Ghost Games will be listening to the fans to "give you the game you've been asking for," and while the team is already deep in development on their next game, that process will "take us some time." Nilsson continued:
"We've made the decision to not release a Need for Speed in 2014, so we can work towards a highly innovative Need for Speed in 2015. An experience built on a foundation we know you'll greatly look forward to."
Ghosts Won't Go Ghost
Nilsson promises that the team won't go silent until next year, and plans to talk about their plans more regularly in the future because "we need your help to shape the future of Need for Speed… We will keep innovating, always making sure to continue the celebration of cars and the joy they bring."
"That's all we can share for now but remember this is just the beginning. We're excited and ready," Nilsson writes.
How do you feel about there not being a new Need For Speed game in 2014? It's the first time since 2002 that there hasn't been an annual Need For Speed entry.

Rain can make lane markings hard to see at night
Published: Sunday, March 24, 2013 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, March 23, 2013 at 1:26 p.m.
Driving in the rain at night can be hazardous, and some drivers say lane markings on the road can actually make conditions worse.
Lines of yellow and white lose their brilliance when covered with rainwater and hit with headlights.
The N.C. Department of Transportation says that although the paint used in street lines is reflective, it can often be deflected by a cover of water.
"The road paint has glass beads in it, which reflect light back to motorists. This is actually called 'retro-reflecting' because it reflects not back to the actual source of light (headlights), but instead back into the motorists' eyes, so he or she can see the paint," said Julia Casadonte, communications officer for the DOT.
"If there is a cover of water over the paint, then the water is going to deflect that light, making it less visible to motorists. This particularly happens when the paint is slightly more worn. Brand new paint is thicker, but as the paint wears down, any decent rainfall can cover it up."
She said glass bead technology was first used for "retro-reflectivity" in pavement marking in 1933.

After some updating of files, I feel confident in a massive career game.
I'm using the original SI XML files. Leagues loaded are (brace yourselves): Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Chile, China, Colombia, England, France, Germany, Greece, Holland, India, Indonesia, Italy, Mexico, Peru, Portugal, Russia, Scotland, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, United States, Uruguay. All playable divisions active. (I think that's 56 divisions)
Started as unemployed.
Took a while to find a job, but landed at Geylang United in the S-League with 8 matches left in the season and the club underperforming in 9th place.
I prefer at least 2 up front, but the available players caused me to go with a 4-1-2-2-1 formation.
And we struggled to start, losing my first 6 matches. We also set a record with 7 consecutive matches without a goal (a run that went back to my predecessor).
But a scout I hired found a Nigerian striker playing in southeast Asia. Brought him on trial, liked what I saw, signed him and stuck him up front on his own.
We won our final two matches of the season (including our "fierce rivals" Woodlands Wellington at their place) 1-0, with the new striker scoring the lone goal on an 89th-minute breakaway.
So, we go into the close season with some renewed confidence.

resolving of api methods different in 4.1.3 and 4.2.x
I have implemented an application that creates a dynamic ext.direct api for different user groups.
If the user logs in to the application the api is build via php on the server side.
Different users get different dynamic api's based on their rights to read, create, update, destroy data.
The model definition is the same for all users, example:
Ext.define('Ibd.model.Config', { extend: 'Ext.data.Model', fields: [ {name:'id', type: 'int'}, {name:'key', type: 'string'}, {name:'value', type: 'string'} ], idProperty : 'id', proxy: { type: 'direct', extraParams: { task: 'ALL' }, api: { create: Config.createRecord, read: Config.dispatch, update: Config.updateRecord, destroy: Config.destroyRecord }, reader: { root: 'results', totalProperty: 'total', successProperty: 'success' } } });
In their dynamic api some users will not get the rights to "create" and "destroy" a record. So their individual api does not list this methods. Everything works fine up to ExtJs 4.1.3. The users can read and update data and cannot create and destroy data. The api-methods are evaluated at runtime, when the user tries to create or destroy a record.
In ExtJs 4.2.X the evaluation of the proxy api definitions seem to be handled earlier, because my form won't load with the error message:
" Ext.data.proxy.Direct.resolveMethods(): Cannot resolve Direct api create method undefined"
I would say:
"Yes, that's right the create method is not defined in the api because the user has no right to create a record, but so what, the user hasn't tried yet to create a record".
Is there a possibility to get the 4.1.3 evaluation behaviour of Ext.direct in the 4.2.X releases?
Or do i have to catch the error by hand and handle it, and how do i do it?
Or are their other suggestions for implementing a dynamic api based on user rights?
Thank you very much

So is it that the Ext.Error.raise('Cannot resolve directFn ' + fn); executes that you would like to skip?Mitchell Simoens @LikelyMitch

Yes. I use this solution at the moment:
Ext.Error.handle = function(err) { if (err.sourceMethod == 'resolveMethods') { // maybe log something to the application here if applicable return true; } // any non-true return value (including none) will cause the error to be thrown }
27 Aug 2013 8:17 PM #4
That error is there for a reason: when Ext.Direct method cannot be resolved, most of the time that means that there is an error in the application code. Instead of removing the error message, I would suggest to stub out the methods in question, something like that:
PHP Code:
(function() {
var stubFn = function() {
Ext.Error.raise('This should not have happened!');
Config = {
createRecord: stubFn,
dispatch: stubFn,
updateRecord: stubFn,
destroyRecord: stubFn

5 Recklessly Stupid Attempts at Human Flight (That Worked)
We like to think of early aviators as careful, studious men who cautiously weighed every possible design decision, knowing full well that somebody would be trusting their life to those calculations at the prototype stage. It turns out that wasn't quite the case; it was more a matter of slapping as many of whatever they had lying around the workshop together and getting a running start off the nearest cliff. The truly crazy part? Sometimes it actually worked.
#5. Batplane
Via Manningkrull
Look at that thing: It's ridiculous. It looks like something you'd call bullshit on in a video game. It looks like a kite made out of foreskin. It looks like the Batplane made out of wood ...
And that's exactly what it is (a wooden Batplane, we mean -- not the foreskin thing). Inventor and engineer Clement Ader is best remembered by history for improving the design of Alexander Graham Bell's telephone, and slightly less well known for being a turn-of-the-century alternate history Batman.
Ader's first attempt at a functioning flying machine (no, this wasn't a fluke. Ader was all about two things: building bat-shaped flying machines and inspiring terror in his enemies), which he called the Eole, had a 45-foot wingspan and was powered by a steam engine, which is the equivalent of attempting to power a race car with positive thinking. Despite the meager power supply, however, in 1890 the Eole was able to travel 165 feet and achieved some sweet air, reaching a maximum altitude of 8 inches. That may seem like nothing, but it was the first time a manned, engine-powered flying machine ever got off the ground, technically making Ader the world's first pilot, and technically making the world's first airplane a Batplane.
Via Wikimedia Commons
"Let's hover in front of the full moon and just freak everyone out."
He upped the Bat-ante with his next design, a gas-engine model called the Avion III (pictured above). The only problems Ader saw with this design was that it was virtually impossible to steer and prone to terrifying the holy shit out of unsuspecting bats who thought they'd just met their God. Not letting a petty thing like "maneuverability" derail his quest to sit inside a giant bat while laughing maniacally, Ader outfitted the Avion III with propeller blades that worked to stabilize and steer the craft. The advent of other aircraft that didn't look like they were designed by a 12-year-old boy with freshly murdered parents pretty much spelled the end for the Avion III -- but not before Ader allegedly conducted a test flight in 1897 that successfully flew 1,000 feet, prompting the Edwardian-era joker to abandon his ne'er-do-well shenanigans and surrender to the constabulary posthaste.

#4. Multiplane
Via Aerospaceweb.org
This is the creation of one Horatio Phillips, who is best known for designing the world's first bicycle loom. No? Then what is that thing? The world's first multistage radiator? The first Ikea book-storage system? The first drive-thru Venetian blind? Holy shit, don't tell us that's supposed to be a plane?!
Yup: Phillips slapped 20 wooden wings onto his bicycle, added a 22-horsepower engine and, we imagine, to nobody's greater surprise than Phillips himself, the 10-foot-tall, 600-pound aircraft lifted off the ground and flew nearly 50 feet, reaching speeds of up to 34 mph.
Via Aerospaceweb.org
Our drunkest mathematicians assure us that 20 wings are nearly 10 times safer than two wings.
Jesus, we're starting to suspect that everything flies if you just flap it hard enough and think positive thoughts.
And as proof of this hypothesis, here's Phillips' next design:
Via Aerospaceweb.org
The plane after that? 4.2 million wings.
Yes, this splintery cage was the epitome of Phillips' revolutionary "two wings good, 200 wings gooder" philosophy of flight mechanics. As if in direct mockery of gravity itself, of course this new multiplane flew as well: In 1907, it made its maiden journey of roughly 500 feet. It was like a teenager bringing a hot prom date in to meet his lame parents, a singularly awkward and embarrassing way to introduce something as sexy as powered flight to the United Kingdom.
#3. Umbrella Plane
Via Ctie.monash.edu
William Romme received funding to build the umbrella plane after his concept won a 1910 aircraft design contest, either because it was one of those contests where "everyone's a winner!" or because the only other entrant was Horatio Phillips, who just hot-glued massive piles of randomly distributed wings to a sewing machine.
Romme's prototype, as you can see, consisted of little more than a disclike wooden frame with canvas draped over the front, taking its design cues from the humble umbrella. Evidently having never handled nor seen an umbrella in real life, Romme was flabbergasted when the flimsy plane was flipped over by the wind during a test run. The plane was badly damaged, and the engineer learned a valuable lesson ... which he promptly forgot, and then built another plane just like the first. This model was slightly more successful, soaring to a dizzying height of 15 feet before presumably folding inside out and whipping down the street to get run over by a bus.

Theistic evolution sounds similar to Old Earth Creationism. Both ideas start with the premise that God created. After this, I've heard tale of wars fought between the two camps. What is the gist of the differences between these two ideas?

Theistic evolution (TE) is the belief that we should look to the Bible to learn about God, and rely on scientists to inform us about science. As someone once put it, "The Bible tells us how to go to heaven; science tells us how the heavens go. Science can give us the age of rocks; the Bible can give us the Rock of Ages."
This view holds that there is no conflict between faith and science regardless of the conclusions the scientists reach. This viewpoint has been labeled "theistic evolution" because about 98% or 99% of all scientists in the life science fields accept evolution as the best theory to explain the variety of life forms found on our planet.
TE differs from old earth creationism (OEC) in that OEC generally accepts modern geology and cosmology but not evolution.
TE differs from intelligent design (ID) in that ID proponents hold that science can uncover ways in which God is active in the creation process; TE proponents hold that God has been active, but can accept the "how" of God's involvement as a mystery.
Theistic Evolution is the belief that God created life via the evolutionary process as it is understood today by modern science.
There are a few ways in which Evolution might be understood "theistically":
I believe that most people who call themselves "Theistic Evolutionists" would go with #3 (Howard Van Till calls this "Fully gifted creation"), although I don't see any reason the term couldn't be applied to those who believe in #1 or #2.
My understanding is that strictly speaking, Old Earth Creationism is the idea of an instant creation, albeit as old as perhaps radiometric dating suggests, whereas Theistic Evolution posits that Evolution did occur (thus all life originated from a single cell, perhaps) and the individual kinds emerged over time, and that this process was either started by, or continually overseen and guided by, God.
To answer the title question, Theistic Evolution is the belief that God guides the evolutionary process, and that this guidance better explains weaknesses in current evolutionary theory.
Theistic Evolution presumes an Old Earth, but Old Earth Creationism does not presume Theistic Evolution, as OEC also allows both for traditional evolution (that God is more of a watch-maker, and did not intervene in the natural selection process after creation) and for no evolution at all (that individual species were created by God at the appropriate times in history) depending on who you talk to.

I'm about to finish my Ph.D. study in robotics. My field requires complex, but at the same time online and high performance algorithms involving a great deal of mathematics. That's why my greatest companion is C++. But I often use Python to test and visualise my C++ code. This is very easy, thanks to Boost.Python. I like Java for hacking together a GUI quickly, or when I need to do some network based application (and often both of them together). I also like the fact that Java integrates very smoothly with MATLAB. I don't like MATLAB, but due to the courses that I assist in, I end up having to use it. I'd much rather use Scipy + C++ for almost any purpose that one would use MATLAB.
I'm a fan of parallelism, and I would very much like to work on GPU or even FPGA based projects. Despite all the craving in me, I couldn't get deep into either, because it's hard to reconcile such hard-core optimisation with academic research. Papers are mostly about algorithms, not their implementations. So far, I've had to console myself with OpenMP and some humble CUDA programming.
I'm an Ubuntu user and I love it. I use Eclipse as an IDE of most of my programming (also LaTeX). One of my big fears is having to use Windows (and MSVC) for work one day.
I like computer games. Both playing, and making them. I'm yet to complete a game, since after writing the engine I lose the necessary enthusiasm. But I'm hoping to finish the current one after I get my degree.
Nowadays, I fancy 3D printing a lot. I used to do a lot of 3D modelling as a hobby in the past. I feel that the time is approaching when I materialise my thoughts. I will try to get a 3D printer as soon as I settle in some semi-permanent home. Meanwhile, I'll probably start using the online print-to-order services.

Possibly made 20-30 years ago, with those now in their late 30's probably watching it when they were children.
It was an American style western but produced in the outback of Germany somewhere.
It was dubbed into many languages throughout Europe. I think I watched it in Slovakia 5 years ago, where repeats would still be shown on Sunday afternoons.
The story had an Indian who befriended some cowboys and helped try to calm the relations between the two camps.
The character "Old man Chatterhan" comes to me, but my searches have led me to nothing, so I'm doubting my memory.

CADIZ - The Harrison County commissioners were busy with oil and gas business Wednesday, passing seven agreements for road use and leasing of county property.
Commissioners approved:
A road-use agreement with Cardinal Gas for 0.12 mile and 2.6 miles of county Road 45, 3.2 miles of county Road 22 and 0.25 mile of county Road 502 for pipeline construction.
Three road-use agreements with Chesapeake Exploration LLC for 2.3 miles of county Road 17, 4 miles of county Road 17, 1.4 miles of county Road 44 and 1.2 miles of county Road 17.
An agreement with Chesapeake Exploration to lease 34 acres and 187 acres of land respectively on the property where the County Home is located. The 34-acre lease is in Archer Township and was signed for $170,000, and 187 acres in Cadiz Township were signed for $935,000, both at $5,000 per acre with an 18 percent royalty agreement. The board also approved an agreement for 40 acres at the county fairgrounds for $200,000.
Meanwhile, Scott Blackburn, director of the Harrison County Department of Job and Family Services, was on hand for the awarding of the bid for the renovation of two restrooms at the DJFS building. The contract was awarded to solo bidder Kinsey Construction Inc. of Harrisville, which proposed $21,640.
The two restrooms are not usable following repairs to the sewer lines in the building, and plans call for the renovations to combine them into one handicapped-accessible restroom. The bid names Smith Plumbing of Cadiz and D&E Electric, also of Harrisville, as subcontractors.
The commissioners also finished some end-of-year business concerning funds from shale leases. The commissioners appropriated $84.48 into examinations for final state-mandated costs for the airport; $3,700 for postage; $50,000 for the demolition of the adjacent Heinz Building.
The board also transferred $845 to ensure there are enough flags and markers for the 2013 grave decorations.
Commissioner Don Bethel explained, following, the recommendation of Harrison County Auditor Patrick Moore, that the county would transfer the funds to clear some of the county's long-term debt. Moore stated the transfers would clear up county debt that has been on the books for six to eight years.
Commissioner Barbara Pincola stated, "We are finally in the place where we are going to be able to clear up or at least catch up on some of that debt."

I know that I can use the ideal gas law with pure gases or pure liquids. But can I also use the ideal gas law at saturated gases and saturated liquids as long as they aren't two phase substances?
dmckee gives some good qualitative considerations, but we can also develop rules for when the ideal gas law is and isn't appropriate. To start:
Between these two states is a gray area. In that case you should look at the compressibility factor, $Z=P_\text{actual}/P_\text{ideal}$. $Z$ is a function of reduced pressure $P_r$ and reduced temperature $T_r$ (more on these later), and this correlation is given in standard charts which apply for most substances (I use one from Koretsky 2004, p. 198). If you accept errors up to 10%, you may apply the ideal gas law as long as $0.9<Z<1.1$. So:
$P_r$ is defined as $P/P_c$ and $T_r$ is defined as $T/T_c$, where $P_c$ and $T_c$ are the substance's critical properties. For pure substances, these can be looked up in tables. For mixtures of vapors and gases which don't interact strongly, calculate each by multiplying the critical property of each pure component with its volume fraction and adding them together.
For example, pure water has $P_c=217~\text{atm}$ and $T_c=647~\text{K}$. Pure water vapor at 1 atm and 373 K has $P_r=1/217=0.0046$, so the ideal gas law applies to within 10% error. Pure water vapor at 25 atm and 498 K has $P_r=0.12$ and $T_r=0.77$, and $$0.77\not>1.819-\frac{0.3546}{0.12^{0.6}}$$ Thus the ideal gas law is no longer a good approximation. But if the vapor is mixed with 80% air $(P_c=37~\text{atm},\ T_c=133~\text{K})$ and kept at the same total pressure, we get $$P_c=80\%\cdot 37+20\%\cdot 217=73\Rightarrow P_r=0.34$$ $$T_c=80\%\cdot 133+20\%\cdot 647=236\Rightarrow T_r=2.1$$ $$2.1>1.819-\frac{0.3546}{0.34^{0.6}}$$ So the ideal gas law applies again.
But these rules only apply if you accept errors up to 10%. If accuracy is important, only use the ideal gas law for $P_r<0.025$ and don't use it for saturated vapors at all. When the ideal gas law doesn't apply, correct it using the compressibility factor $(P_\text{actual}=ZP_\text{ideal})$ or use a better equation of state like Soave-Redlich-Kwong or Peng-Robinson (not van der Waals; it's bad for general use).
The ideal gas law is derived from a model (the ideal gas), and like every other model it applies where it's underling assumptions are good approximations to reality.
So, important assumptions for the idea gas law:
So, what happens if this assumptions are violated? Well, the Van der Waals gas for the space occupied by the molecules and a bulk attractive force between molecules. This makes it applicable to higher density materials (but still ones whose internal degrees of freedom are not excited) and causes it to exhibit the gas-to-liquid first-order phase change (which is not present in the ideal gas).
Aside from the classical cases where the ideal gas law applies, it also applies to describe the exact entropy of a dilute solution, even if that solution is in a dense liquid. The reason is that the entropy of a dilute solution in a dense liquid is exactly the same as the entropy of a dilute gas, the number of possible positions for the solute particles is the same as the number of possibilities for the gas.

MONTE CARLO, April 16 World number one Novak Djokovic, who has been struggling to shake off an ankle injury, will play in this week's Monte Carlo Masters, organisers said on Tuesday.
Last year's runner-up picked up the injury when he led Serbia to a Davis Cup quarter-final win over the United States last week.
Djokovic practised on Tuesday but did not put too much pressure on his right leg when serving.
He will face Russian Mikhail Youzhny in the second round on Wednesday. (Reporting by Gregory Blachier, editing by Ed Osmond)

The agreements for rail loading and terminaling services and a pipeline project will help Phillips 66 increase supplies of cost-advantaged North American crude oil to its US refineries.
By SAABIRA CHAUDHURI
Phillips 66 reached agreements with Enbridge Energy, Targa
Resources and Magellan Midstream for rail loading and
terminaling services and a pipeline project, a move the energy company
said will increase supplies of cost-advantaged North American
crude oil to its US refineries.
"We are aggressively pursuing increased access to advantaged
crudes in North America by partnering with leading third-party
transportation providers and better leveraging our own system
capabilities," CEO Greg Garland said.
"Increasing our utilization of those advantaged crudes should
allow us to capture significant value in our refining and marketing
Under the agreements, Enbridge agreed to a three-year deal
for railcar loading of Bakken shale crude at Enbridge's
Berthold, N.D., terminal beginning in May, with volumes ramping
up to 35,000 to 40,000 bpd by November.
The crude oil will be delivered to Phillips 66 refineries on
the West and East Coasts, and the company may also pursue
opportunities to send it to its Gulf Coast refineries.
Separately, Targa agreed to provide rail unloading and barge
loading services in Tacoma, Wash. The five-year agreement,
which began in late 2012, allows advantaged US or Canadian
crude oil to be unloaded from railcars at Targa's Tacoma
terminal and transloaded onto barges for delivery to the
Phillips 66 Ferndale, Wash., refinery.
The facility also allows for delivery into the San Francisco,
Calif., refinery, where crude imported from outside of North
America could be replaced.
Phillips 66 also detailed its agreement with Magellan to
transport advantaged crude on Magellan's pipelines near
Phillips's refinery in Ponca City, Okla. The project will replace West Texas
Intermediate crude from Cushing, Okla., with virgin crude from
the nearby Mississippian Lime play.
Phillips 66 said is also investing in its own transportation
assets in Oklahoma to transport an additional 40,000 bpd
of Mississippian Lime crude to the Ponca City refinery, and at
the refinery to accept crude from the
Magellan project.

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

I'm creating a Web Start application which would benefit from some of the newer JVM options (especially escape analysis, G1 garbage collector etc.)
At the same time, I would like the application to work gracefully on older JVMs that do not support these options.
Is there a good way of achieving this?

I recently had some things stolen out of my car, and I vaguely remember reading somewhere in the New Testament that you shouldn't desire to get stolen items back. I've been searching for it, but I can't seem to find it.
Does anyone know the verse? Also, is there any other encouraging scripture you could recommend on the topic?

Let P(X,Y,Z) be a homogeneous polynomial in ℂ[X,Y,Z] whose locus M in ℂℙ2 is a nonsingular curve of genus ≥ 2.
Define M to be maximally symmetric if the following is not true:
There exists a continuous family { Pt | t ∊ [0,1] } of homogeneous polynomials in ℂ[X,Y,Z] such that 1), 2), and 3) hold:
2) The locus Mt in ℂℙ2 of each Pt is nonsingular.
3) There is a group G such that the ambient isometry groups
Gt := IsomA(Mt) are all isomorphic to G for 0 ≤ t < 1, but G1 contains G as a proper subgroup.
Here the "ambient isometry group" IsomA(Mt) of a projective curve M in ℂℙ2 means the subgroup of Isom(ℂℙ2) = PSU(3) that carries M to itself.
Question: I'd like pointers to the literature regarding what may be known about a classification of such "maximally symmetric" projective curves up to ambient isometry, their defining polynomials, and especially their ambient isometry groups.
