In theoretical physics one often encounters the following rationale: if $f$ and $g$ are functions on $\mathbf{R}^n$, satisfying some technical conditions, and $\displaystyle\int_\Omega f=\int_\Omega g$ for all open sets $\Omega$, then $f=g$. (For instance, one obtains from Gauss law in "integral form" $\displaystyle\int_\Omega\mathrm{div} \ E = \int_\Omega \rho$ its "differential form" $\mathrm{div} \ E=\rho$.) Now my problem is: I want to know these technical conditions. Of course, it is a seemingly obvious statement, but it disturbs me not to know under what conditions this reasoning is legit. Is there some theorem which answers this question? Of course, I am also happy with a good reference.
If $ f $ and $ g $ are continuous $ L^{1} $-functions, then you can certainly conclude that $ f = g $. We need the $ L^{1} $-condition to ensure that the integrals $ \displaystyle \int_{\Omega} f $ and $ \displaystyle \int_{\Omega} g $ are defined at the very least (especially if you let $ \Omega = \mathbb{R}^{n} $).
Now, suppose that $ \displaystyle \int_{\Omega} f = \int_{\Omega} g $ for all open subsets $ \Omega $ of $ \mathbb{R}^{n} $. Assume, for the sake of contradiction, that $ f \neq g $. Without loss of generality, we may suppose that there exists an $ x \in \mathbb{R}^{n} $ such that $ f(x) < g(x) $. Then by the continuity of $ f $ and $ g $, we can find an open neighborhood $ U $ of $ x $ such that $ f(y) < g(y) $ for all $ y \in U $. It follows readily that $ \displaystyle \int_{U} f < \int_{U} g $, which contradicts our initial hypothesis. The assumption is therefore false, so we conclude that $ f = g $.
I would like to provide a more abstract, measure-theoretic explanation. Of course this is overkill for most physics applications, where the simpler explanation provided by Haskell Curry works perfectly nice.
Let $(\Omega, \mathcal{F}, \mu)$ be a measure space. We can of course assume that one of the given functions is zero, say $g=0$. We therefore want to find conditions on the integrals of $f\colon \Omega \to \mathbb{R}$ that ensure its vanishing up to a set of measure zero. This last remark is unavoidable as we are really working in a category of functions defined up to "almost-everywhere equivalence", that is, up to sets of measure zero.
The first statement is pretty simple: if all integrals vanish, then the function itself vanishes.
Proof. Consider the positive part $f^+$ of $f$, defined as $f^+(x)=\max(f(x), 0)$. This is a measurable function. Since $$\int_{\Omega} f^+\, d\mu= \int_{\{f\ge 0\}} f\, d\mu =0, $$ and since $f^+\ge 0$ almost everywhere, we can conclude that $f^+=0$ almost everywhere. Indeed, we can decompose the set $$\left\{f^+> 0\right\}=\bigcup_{n=1}^\infty \left\{f^+\ge \frac{1}{n}\right\},$$ and the sets in the right hand side are all null, because $$ 0=\int_{\left\{f\ge \frac{1}{n}\right\}}f\, d\mu=\int_{\left\{f^+\ge \frac{1}{n}\right\}}f^+\, d\mu\ge\frac{1}{n}\left\lvert \left\{f^+\ge \frac{1}{n}\right\}\right\rvert.$$ So the condition $f^+(x)>0$ can only hold in a measure zero set. Since $f^+$ is nonnegative, this means that is must vanish almost everywhere, as claimed. The proof that the negative part $f^-$ vanishes is analogous. $\square$
Of course there is no need to check the vanishing of integrals over all measurable sets. One can do with substantially smaller families of integrals.
Proof. Define $$\mathcal{A}'=\left\{ A'\in \mathcal{F}\ :\ \int_{A'} f\, d\mu=0\right\}.$$ By assumption we have $\mathcal{A}\subset \mathcal{A}'$. So, clearly, $$\mathcal{F}=\sigma(\mathcal{A})=\sigma(\mathcal{A}').$$ To conclude we need to show that $\mathcal{A}'$ is a sigma-algebra, which implies that $\mathcal{A}'=\mathcal{F}$ and so the desired conclusion by the Lemma above. Since $\mathcal{A}$ is a $\pi$-system, it will be enough to show that $\mathcal{A}'$ is a $\lambda$-system and then apply the $\pi$-$\lambda$ theorem. We proceed to check the $\lambda$-system properties.
By assumption we have $\Omega \in \mathcal{A}'$. Also, it is immediate that if $A'$ and $B'$ are in $\mathcal{A}'$ and $A'\subset B'$, then $$\int_{B'\setminus A'} f\, d\mu=0, $$ that is, $B'\setminus A'\in \mathcal{A}'$. Lastly, if $A_1'\subset A_2'\subset \ldots $ is an expanding family in $\mathcal{A}'$, then $$\int_{\bigcup_n A_n} f\, d\mu= \lim_{n \to \infty} \int_{\Omega} f\chi_{A_n}\, d\mu =0, $$ by the dominated convergence theorem, which is applicable because $\lvert f\chi_{A_n}\rvert \le \lvert f \rvert \in L^1(\Omega)$. $\square$
This theorem applies to the case at hand because the family of all open sets satisfies properties 1, 2 and 3 above when $\mathcal{F}$ is the sigma-algebra of Borel sets of $\mathbb{R}^n$. Actually, there are not many more families that satisfy those properties and are of practical use. The family of all rectangles is one, but the family of all balls (for which the theorem is true) is not, because it fails on property 2. Indeed, the intersection of two balls needs not being a ball. I guess that property 2 can be substituted with the following weaker one:
2$_\mathrm{weak}$. $\Omega\in \mathcal{A}$ and for all $A, B\in \mathcal{A}$ there exists $\varnothing \ne C\in \mathcal{A}$ such that $C\subset A\cap B$.
If you are satisfied with $f=g$ except on a set of measure zero, this is true for all integrable real-valued functions:
For $\epsilon>0$, let $A_\epsilon=\{x\in\mathbf{R}^n:f(x)-g(x)\geq\epsilon\}$. Suppose $\lambda(A_\epsilon)> 0$ for some $\epsilon$. Then $A_\epsilon$ contains an open ball $B(y;\delta)$. It follows
I'm not sure if the statement is true for complex- or vector-valued functions.

Remembering the Civil War: Songs, films and books
April 12 will mark the 152nd anniversary of the beginning of the American Civil War, which means we've had plenty of time to gain some perspective on one of the most momentous events of our nation's past. Though the country lost much, it gained a more solid identity, along with numerous works of art and literature that captured the years following 1861. Here are some of the more memorable ones.

There's already a question for WebApp gotchas, but there are also a lot of anti-patterns in desktop UIs.

Applications stealing focus when I'm working in a different app. For example: start Photoshop, get back to work in MS Word, Photoshop steals focus when it's done starting. Quite annoying
Having a gazillion options in there settings that's impossible to navigate. I always felt like internet explorer was bad about this:
Apps that don't follow the OS' conventions, such as apps that minimise to an icon in the tray when you click "close", or apps that add themselves to startup automatically without asking/notifying you. It's a UI problem because any competent UI designer would scream in anguish at the implied end user fury resulting from implementing something like that.
I know I do. Every time!
Creating a notification area icon for an application that doesn't run in the background (e.g. Opera and VLC).
Modal windows and dialog boxes! I've got ten different programs running and all of a sudden some application way in the background decides to spawn one of these things. Now I've got to stop what I'm doing since I can't get any more work done until I click OK or Cancel.
Applications ask for System Restart once updating software is complete. This is annoying as user might have just started sytem.
Windows application that when closed with the "x" are instead minimized to the tray and force you to right click their icon and choose "Exit" (and then sometimes add the "Are you sure?" dialog).
Applications that ask you to upgrade when you first launch them. When you open an application you usually have a task in mind that you need that application to complete. This is just about the worst possible time to interrupt the user and ask them to complete an upgrade process.
Splash screens while launching a program. These splash screens have a bad habit of staying on top of every other window until loading is done. Loading may take ages, so it's not possible to use any other windows in the meantime.
Application alerts/dialogs that prevent my Taskbar in Windows from auto-hiding.
Lotus Notes. Just everything about it.
On the Mac, a pet peeve of mine is that the Resize handle on the lower-right corner is so small. I regularly—unintentionally—click something in the background, causing loss of focus on the window I was attempting to resize. Now I usually remember to slow down and be very pointed (pun) while mousing to the Resize handle.
I find it frustrating when a desktop app deliberately limits itself to working like a web page (note: not a web application, but a web page).
Web pages are limited by bandwidth and latency constraints - why replicate the same constrained user experience when you're locally installed. Madness.
Problem: at this specific moment I have; 2 IE windows with about 10 tabs each 2 Visual studio windows, TweetDeck, 1 Chrome with a few tabs, Total Commander, Skype, Google Talk, 2 cassini instances and AV software. (for some reason I don't have any Office apps open at this moment but I usually do, and when I am testing I usually have 5 browsers running)
Modal dialog boxes that have to tell me what the buttons mean. For example, when closing an unsaved document you frequently get something like this:
The alternative, of course, is to explicitly label the buttons; e.g. [Discard Changes and Exit], [Save Changes and Exit], etc.
Hm, I have a Dell laptop at work, with a docking station. Windows XP displays a stupid "Undock" button in the start menu, right below "All Programs." Constantly I hit that hell pit and it "undocks" my computer, closing all my network connections while at it and forcing me to physically extracting the laptop from the docking bay (having to remove a physical lock we are enforced to use here) and... you get the picture.
Taskbar keeps being hidden for no obvious reason1 even though I've moved my mouse to the bottom of the screen.
Inconsistant keyboard shortcuts for common tasks.
One example: Microsoft products and browsers, advancing through sentences one word at a time (alt-left/right) and jump to end of line (ctl-left/right). In Adobe software ctl-left/right moves one word at a time, and alt-left/right adjusts kerning.
Gets me every time. Why would you create software that breaks such basic conventions?

The motivation for this question comes from music theory. Dmitri Tymoczko models "good" voice leading as minimizing distance between pitches in successive chords. While this theory works well for upper voices, it does not work so well for the bass, which tends to move by 4ths and 5ths quite frequently. (Tymoczko explicitly excludes the bass from his model.)
Taking log (all logs are base 2 in this question) of frequency and taking pitches which differ by an octave as equivalent, we get $\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}$. For the upper voices, we want the standard metric on this.
For the bass, we want moving by a fifth or a fourth - meaning by $\pm \log (3/2)$ to be small. So we want $d(x,x\pm\log(3/2))=k_1$, where $k_1$ is probably somewhere around $0.05$. To make this a metric space, let's declare that $d(x,y)$ should be the minimum of $|x-y|$, $k_1+||x-y|-\log(3/2)|$, and $k_1+||x-y|-\log(4/3)|$.
We probably want moving by a major third - meaning by $\pm\log(5/4)$ to also be small, but not as small. I suspect $2k_1$ would make the most mathematical sense, but any constant of roughly that magnitude is fine. Ditto for minor thirds - this would be movement by $\pm\log(6/5)$, with a slightly larger constant.
If we do this, we might as well make all movements by $\pm\log(p/q)$ small if $q$ is small.
CLARIFICATION: I also want the standard metric to be one of the options for getting from $x$ to $y$. So the distance between $0$ and $\sqrt{1/500}$ should be $\sqrt{1/500}$, while the distance between $0$ and $7/12$ should be $k_1+|\log(3/2)-7/12|$. (Musically, $|\log(3/2)-7/12|$ is how far off an even-tempered 5th is from Pythagorean tuning.)
Question 1: Can one actually define something along these lines that satisfies the triangle inequality? (I don't think I actually have; I probably need to take the minimum (or infimum) of some infinite sequence, but am not entirely sure that works.)
Question 2: Assuming the answer to (1) is yes, what does this metric space look like? Can someone help me with a picture that seems less exotic, perhaps comparing it to the Hawaiian Earring or something of that sort? In particular, what might the fundamental group look like?
My background: I'm a combinatorialist and algebraic geometer who happens to be the one least unqualified here to be supervising an undergraduate independent study on mathematics in music theory. I did the standard first year graduate courses in point set topology and algebraic topology, but that was almost a dozen years ago.

TOPEKA -- County Commissioner Ted Ensley issued this news release in announcing Friday that he won't be running for a possible 5th term on the commission this year.
"I am announcing today that I will not be a candidate for Shawnee County Commission. It was a very difficult decision. I have had many friends and commission district patrons encouraging me to run again and give it another 4 years. It is time to focus on the next stage of my life.
My time on the council started 16 years ago. I benefited from an excellent staff, superior department heads, and capable employees. I have very much enjoyed my work to help make Shawnee County government a model of good government and public service for the taxpayers and their families.
I am proud of my work with Lake Shawnee as Director of Shawnee County Parks and Recreation for 31 years. That was my first job right out of Kansas State University. I am grateful to former County Commissioner Dick Hanger for hiring me. Dick gave me a motivation to improve the quality of life for Shawnee County citizens by improving Lake Shawnee and expanded parks and recreations projects.
Lake Shawnee was my home and I am truly grateful and honored to have our former back-yard named Ted Ensley Gardens.
Lake Shawnee has become the crown jewel for Shawnee County in the treasure chest of Shawnee County Parks and Recreation. Shawnee County Parks and Recreation Foundation, that includes the Friends of Ted Ensley Gardens, was established to insure the continuation of a very special public private partnership with an army of community volunteers.
The partnership started when George Bettis and other volunteers approached me when I was Director of Parks & Recreation. They wanted to build baseball diamonds at Lake Shawnee and start the SCABA baseball program. A deal was made that teamed County taxpayers with private funds and volunteers to build a legacy of competitive youth baseball in Topeka.
Then as County Commissioner, I worked with John Knight, current director of parks and recreation to improve the SCABA facilities to become a premier destination for regional and national youth baseball tournaments at the newly constructed Bettis Family Sports Complex. The contributions of three generations of George Bettis family and the generosity of Terry Bettis and family to the SCPR Foundation will insure that future generations will benefit from the investments both public and private.
With my 16 years on the commission, much was accomplished working with like minded commissioners who had the courage to vote to improve the quality of services and the quality of life for Shawnee County citizens. I thank them all for the pleasure of working with them.
My life's legacy started with Lake Shawnee and Shawnee County Parks and Recreation. John Knight has his hands full with the consolidation of parks and recreation but he is a very capable Director. I can leave knowing parks and recreation is in his hands to continue improving on Topeka's greatest assets, Lake Shawnee and Shawnee County parks and Recreation.
It has been my pleasure to be of service for 47 years of my life to the citizens of Shawnee County. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to serve. See you in the gardens!"

I reduced a number theory problem to finding all ordered pairs $(a,b)$ that satisfy the equation $a(a-2) = b(b+2)$ in a certain range. After thinking about this for a while, I figured that either $a = b + 2$, $a = -b$, $a = b = 0$ or $a = 2 \text{ and } b = -2$. It is easy to prove that these values for $a$ and $b$ will all satisfy the equation, but how would I solve this equation had I not come up with these solutions? And how do I know I did not miss one? In short, can this equation be solved (more) rigorously?
Edit: Silly of me I did not recognize that my last two solutions were already covered by my first two.

This forum is for collaborating on projects with others.
If you don't have serious intentions to collaborate or don't have constructive feedback based on real experience, you likely should not be responding to threads in this forum.
▪ DO NOT hijack the topics others have made. Please create your own thread for your projects.
▪ DO NOT troll or insult thread posters regarding their requests. If you think their request is questionable, report them to the forum moderators or administrators. Do not argue with them about the validity of their request. Doing so may result in a suspended account or a suspension from posting in this forum. Serious questioning is generally fine as long as its professional and has a valid basis.
▪ This is not a debate forum. Feel free to use your project threads for heavy discussion if you have joined the related project and the original poster approves, but in line with the above point don't do this without the original poster's permission.
▪ Know your place. If you've been playing a few Flash games for a couple years or have opened the Flash IDE a couple of times, it would be wise to have more of a listening ear towards those who have been professionally making them for much longer. Being a hotshot among your friends at school because you are a little more tech-savvy does not make you a hotshot in this forum or above anyone in the game development industry. This is not a forum for egos, but awareness of experience levels should remind us to be gracious with our words and respectful to our members, since developers create Kongregate's content for us.
▪ Always keep your behavior professional as much as possible.

If you are just looking to show off your art, it is recommended you do so in the Art Forum.
Thank you.

I'm reading a very long text file where each line is composed of an ID, groupID, and additional data. Each ID can be associated with many groupIDs (lines 1,2,3), and each ID-groupID combo can be associated with many data (lines 2,3).
JWOFJ903JCKDF8O | groupID-22 | some data
JWOFJ903JCKDF8O | groupID-33 | same ID as above, but different groupID and data
JWOFJ903JCKDF8O | groupID-33 | same ID and groupID as above, but different data
DF8#CKJ90JJ3WOF | groupID-22 | some data
I'm moving this data to a database, so I have a table for the IDs (no ID duplication), a table for the ID and groupID (no ID-groupID duplication), and a table for the data, which references the ID-groupID table.
So to insert 1 line to the database, I first check that this ID doesn't exist in the ID table, then insert it. Then I check that this ID-groupID combo doesn't exist in the ID-groupID table, then insert it. And finally, insert the data under this ID-groupID id.
does this $id exist in the IDs table
if($id doesn't exist in the IDs table){
insert a new ID()
does this ID-groupID combo exist in the ID-groupID table
if(doesn't exist){
create new id-groupid combo
does this data exist under the third table in association with this id-groupid combo
if(doesn't exist){
insert it
The problem is that because the file is very large (100,000 lines), the process takes hours to complete. Is there something I can do to optimize my propel queries? or improve the design of the database?

What is the source for making barbecues on Yom Haatzmaut?

SimchasTorah pointed to a fascinating comment from Meshech Chochmah (Rabbi Meir Simcha of Dvinsk, c. 100 years ago), let translate the entire quote:
The Meshech CHochmah on Bo in the Pargragh starting Ushmartem 11 lines in it says that the proper way to celebrate is to eat roasted meat see it for yourself
Adraba! There is no source. It is a natural expression of the inner yearning of Am Yisrael to reestablish our broken relationship with the Ha'Kadosh Baruch Hu with the Avoda of Korbanot in Beit Hamikdash.
Thanking Seth J for his comment below I'd like to clarify my original answer a bit.
It should be clear that BBQs on Yom Ha'atzmaut are not and should not be performed Zecher L'Korban. If done is such a manner it may even create a problem with eating the meat in terms of the prohibition of Bamot.
With that said, the setting of a BBQ is very similar to the setting when bringing and feasting on a Korban Toda. Therefore we could look at this modern day minhag as a (spiritually) natural development. Getting us prepared. The original question was about a source. My answer was that I don't see a need for a source. Even if a source is found it is most likely not what started the minhag. The minhag is already a few decades strong. And ... if you like juicy sizzling meat, it is a great minhag!

KILLEEN (December 4, 2012)—A man who led police on a high-speed chase in Harker Heights and Killeen after he pulled a shotgun of officers has died from injuries he suffered when his car crashed during his escape attempt.
Mark Allen Love, 36, of Belton, was pronounced dead just before 5 a.m. Monday in the intensive care unit at Scott and White Hospital in Temple, according to a Department of Public Safety report.
Love led police officers from several agencies on a Sunday afternoon high-speed chase after Harker Heights police say he pulled a shotgun on them while they were investigating another incident for which he was a suspect.
Love was unconscious after the crash and had to be removed from the vehicle using the Jaws of Life, after which he was airlifted to Scott & White Memorial Hospital in critical condition.
Harker Heights officers were investigating a theft incident at a Harker Heights Sprint store when the suspect pulled a shotgun and pointed it at officers.
Harker Heights Police and Killeen Police pursued the suspect on foot until he got into a white Chevy Trailblazer and fled the scene.
The suspect led officers on a high-speed chase eastbound on U.S. 190 that ended when the suspect tried to exit the highway, but saw that the police had it blocked off.
A Nolanville police officer was near the Nolanville Main Street exit when the suspect swerved at the officer causing him to lose control of his vehicle.
The vehicle crossed both the median and two lanes of traffic before it came to a rest upside down on the westbound side of the highway.
Police estimate the suspect was traveling at least 100 miles per hour at the time of the crash.
No one else was injured.
Troopers with the Texas Department of Public Safety are investigating the crash.

Opera Students work with Boston City Singers
You are hereHome/ Opera Students work with Boston City Singers
Opera students of The Boston Conservatory Work with Local Children's Chorus on Leo Janacek's The Cunning Little Vixen
Performers in The Boston Conservatory's production of Leoš Janáček's The Cunning Little Vixen are learning more than just how to engage an audience. Along with learning their lines in Czech, memorizing their stage movements and hitting the right notes, students are also learning how to collaborate with different artist groups.
"Doing The Cunning Little Vixen was a great way for us to serve our opera students, work across inter-divisional lines with our talented Boston Conservatory dance students, and forge a new and exciting partnership with a dynamic children's chorus in Boston," said Johnathon Pape, the stage director for the production.
This unique opera, which tells the story of a young fox cub that is captured by a forester and forced into a life of captivity before finally escaping, calls for 10 characters to be played by children. Pape saw it as a perfect opportunity to collaborate with Boston City Singers, a youth program that works with children ages 4 to18 to inspire young musicians.
"It was a wonderful blend of energies," Pape said. "The characters of the Vixen, Fox and Forester have direct interactions with the children, and they were all positively affected by the youthful energy, openness and delight in singing that these young artists brought to their work."
The 10 Boston City Singers, ages 7 to13, perform the roles of Little Vixen, Little Frog and the title character's cubs. Rehearsing approximately a dozen times before opening night, the singers also practiced along with a recording to learn their parts in Czech. Mark Leuning '14, a current graduate student with a concentration in pedagogy at The Boston Conservatory, helped to teach the singers about the difficult language.
"I was impressed with how quickly these bright, young singers were successful at singing rhythmically, linguistically and harmonically complex music," Leuning said. "It is a testament to the kind of training they are getting with Boston City Singers, and I was thrilled to play a part in providing such young voices this incredible opportunity to sing and act in a fully-staged production with The Boston Conservatory."
Based on a popular comic strip, The Cunning Little Vixen offers unique challenges to Boston Conservatory students and production staff. Sung in the original Czech language with English supertitles, students stretch their limits with a new language and a physically demanding production. Pape believes this learning experience is crucial for the participating students.
"At the Conservatory, we try to provide our opera students with a variety of musical styles, languages, composers, etc.," Pape said. "So doing Vixen, particularly in Czech, provides the students with a fantastic challenge and a great experience of a unique opera."
Wendy Silverberg, the instructor managing the collaboration from Boston City Singers, said it has been a great learning experience and a lot of fun for the children.
"The young singers have been remarkably attentive and quick to follow the director's prompts. Watching them on the set for the first time was truly amazing," Silverberg said. "The set is on a steep slant that will look like a mountain and it was so much fun to watch them prance around it like real fox cubs!"

The Boston Conservatory is breathing new life into Leoš Janáček's classic Czech opera, Příhody Lišky Bystroušky, better known as The Cunning Little Vixen. Performances will be at The Boston Conservatory Theater from November 21 to 24.
The Cunning Little Vixen is being performed at the Conservatory in the original Czech language with English supertitles and features collaboration between the theater and dance departments, as well as The Boston City Singers, a local non-profit organization that offers music education and vocal instruction. The show has 46 singers, eight dancers and 10 children in all.
Stage Director Jonathan Pape has a strong personal connection to this opera and Czech repertoire, having received a Fulbright Research Grant in opera and theater to the Czech Republic in 1994. "Janáček's compositional voice is truly unique and evocative," says Pape. "His deep love and study of nature is reflected throughout the score."
The Cunning Little Vixen is based off a popular comic strip from Janáček's local newspaper in the early 1920s. Janáček was 70 years old when the opera first premiered and poured a great deal of wisdom into the work, yet the piece is known as having a remarkably youthful tone.
It tells the story of a young female fox—a vixen—who is taken from the wild. Overwhelmed and frightened by domesticated life, she arranges an eventual escape, but continues to get into mischief both in her domestic and wild realms. The story explores the cycle of life, the endlessly regenerating power of nature and the concept that birth and death are just different places on the same continuum. Although the opera deals with the very serious topics of life and death, there is also a great deal of humor, wit and charm throughout.
"The students have really gone into training for this show," says Pape, who notes the challenging music, conducted by Andrew Altenbach, the difficult Czech language and the extreme physicality required in the staging. "To portray the animals, the actors have to deal with all kinds of physically-demanding movements, like crawling, rolling and hopping around a raked stage. But for all the challenges, it's also immensely rewarding."
The Cunning Little Vixen is running Thursday, November 21 through Saturday, November 23 at 8 p.m. and Sunday, November 24 at 2 p.m. Tickets are $25 for regular seating and $30 for premium seating, with discounts available, and can be purchased through The Boston Conservatory Box Office at 31 Hemenway Street, by phone at (617) 912-9222 or online at www.bostonconservatory.edu/tickets.

Following emergency legislation in September curtailing backyard subdivision and development, the Seattle City Council is re-examining land-use regulations for single-family neighborhoods. The legislation was enacted in no small part due to Blaine residents objecting to a backyard tall-and-skinny house going up on their street. Now begins the hard work of rewriting the building code to allow reasonable growth "in character" with single-family zones while ending for good the grandfather clauses that allowed these small-lot subdivisions to occur.
Please join us for a panel discussion about the City of Seattle's effort to update standards and exceptions for developing on small lots in Single Family zones.
DPD recently determined that development under current standards is often out of character with the surrounding neighborhood. Interim measures were put in place to prevent additional permits on these small lots while this issue is being studied.
The panel presentation will discuss the issues that we will address when the code is amended. Panel participants will include a neighborhood representative, and representatives from the King County Master Builders and the Seattle Planning Commission.
Comments and suggestions will be welcomed at the meeting. More info and online comments available here.
Developing Small Single Family Lots Panel Discussion — Wednesday, November 14th — 6:00-7:30pm — Bertha Knight Landes Room, Seattle City Hall

CNN: This is no Chernobyl; Update: Volcano erupts in Japan
posted at 12:00 pm on March 13, 2011 by Ed Morrissey
If we haven't had a meltdown in Japan by now, the perfectly-named Malcolm Grimston tells CNN, we're not likely to see one at all. Unlike in Chernobyl, the Japanese shut down their reactors and started cooling them down. At the Fukushima Daiichi plant where fears were highest of a catastrophe, authorities gave up on saving the reactor for later use at all and began pumping seawater into the cooling system to avert a meltdown. The danger has not yet passed, but we're almost certainly beyond the point of a catastrophic breach and are instead looking at the best path to a quick and reasonably safe shutdown:
That does not mean that the danger has passed:
Workers continued efforts to cool down fuel rods inside two nuclear reactors Sunday as a Japanese government official warned that a second explosion could occur at the plant.
And the plant might have yet another explosion of built-up hydrogen gas that the rapid attempts to shut down the reactor and the failure of cooling systems has produced:
"There is a possibility that the third reactor may have hydrogen gas that is accumulating in the reactor (that) may potentially cause an explosion," he said.
An explosion caused by hydrogen buildup Saturday blew the roof off a concrete building housing the plant's No. 1 reactor, but the reactor and its containment system were not damaged in the explosion.
Edano said the No. 3 reactor would also likely withstand a similar blast, noting that workers had already released gas from the building to try to prevent an explosion.
As one expert warned, the Japanese are not out of the woods yet. No one can get close enough to the cores to precisely determine their conditions. But shutting down the reactors and scrapping at least one of them has put them closer to a safe landing in this crisis.
Update: As if the beleaguered Japanese didn't have enough problems:
A volcano in southwestern Japan erupted Sunday after nearly two weeks of relative silence, sending ash and rocks up to four kilometres (two and a half miles) into the air, a local official says. …
The 1,421-metre (4,689-feet) Shinmoedake volcano in the Kirishima range saw its first major eruption for 52 years in January. There had not been any major activity at the site since March 1.
The volcano erupted in January after 52 years of silence. Authorities had already restricted access to the area, but now Japan has to worry whether the ash might interfere with air travel, which would impact international rescue and recovery assistance.

Yellowthroat proves to not be so common
|A common yellowthroat. Credit: Contributed
I knew there was little chance of matching the drake Barrow's goldeneye, clay-colored sparrow and out-of-season wood thrush from the 2011-12 count, but as always on these annual National Audubon Society surveys, I hoped to come up with at least one species that would have otherwise been missed on the local count.
It was still early in the morning when a very likely candidate showed up. I was birding along the Housatonic River at an old industrial area known as the Bleachery, and birds were very active.
I'd walked to the dam and was working my way back out, having already encounted a couple of winter wrens, a yellow-bellied sapsucker and a few bluebirds and robins.
I was trying to get a count on the robins when a flash of yellow caught my eye less than 10 yards away. An adult male commonn yellowthroat popped into view.
Yellowthroats are common breeding birds and migrants in our area, but they're seldom seen in winter, esepcially away from the coast. As far as out-of-season rarities go, they aren't in the class on the wood thrush.
The Woodbury-Roxbury count has logged them a few times over the years, but I know it was unlikely anyone else would get one on this count.
Overall bird numbers seemed low for a number of species, but I was able to come up with 45 species, a respectable showing for my count area.
When I gathered with other birders for a post-count potluck at Bent of the River Audubon Center in Southbury, the total tally confirmed that I'd found the only common yellowthroat.
The ruby-crowned kinglet I dug up at Harrybrooke Park also proved to be a one-fer in an overall count with a preliminary total of 87 species.

The word "Neanderthaler" comes from the cave in the valley "Neanderthal".
The word "Neanderthal" comes from the word Tal=valley in old spelling and the name of Neander, a composer of church hymns who lived near this valley.
The name "Neander" was the Greek version of the Neander's original name "Neumann" (neu (german) =new ( english) = neo (Greek), mann (german) = man (english) = andr- (Greek) )
So, the word Neanderthaler actually comes from a name meaning "new man".
Das Wort 'Handy'. Viele Deutsche glauben, dass dieses Wort aus Englisch kommt. Das ist falsch! Es kommt eigentlich vom 'Handfunkgerät' (hand(held) radio-machine)!

Five people have joined a lawsuit in Maryland that claims a Kentucky-based evangelical church covered up allegations of sexual abuse against children and failed to alert police.
The new anonymous plaintiffs join three women who filed a civil lawsuit against Sovereign Grace Ministries in October. The church moved its headquarters last year from Maryland to Louisville.
One of the new plaintiffs accuses a co-founder of the church of sexual abuse and assaulting her with "plastic and wooden sticks."
A message left at the church office Tuesday was not immediately returned. The church said in a statement about the suit last year that it contains "a number of misleading allegations, as well as considerable mischaracterizations of intent." The church said its lawyers were crafting a response to the complaint.

I picked this up on Black Friday for $10 less for my father. It works fine, and there isn't anything fancy to it, so it made a great Christmas gift for someone a bit less technologically advanced.
I picked up one as well for $10 less, works great and has a small footprint.
For a similar price, one can find BD Players with WiFi/Ethernet and apps. Not a great deal.
@jussairish: Can you give a link to one of those please?

"Offense" vs. "offence", which is more correct? If both are correct, are there any differences in shades of meaning and/or usage?
Sign up

There is no difference in meaning between offence and offense. They're exactly the same in all their definitions. The difference is that offense is the preferred spelling in American English, while offence is preferred in British, Indian, Canadian, and Australian English.
These American publications use offense:
And these non-American publications use offence:
There is a difference between "offense" and "offence" in the context of sports. In the United States, "offense" generally means engaging an opposing team with the objective of scoring points or goals. In the same context in Britain and elsewhere, the term "offence" is usually taken to mean an infraction of the rules - i.e., a penalty or foul - and "attack" is more likely to be used where Americans would use "offense".
Words change with time. Originally the British word was "offence", and Americans slowly took the word "offense". They both meant the same thing. We stress the last syllable when referring to breaking a rule, whereas we stress the first syllable when we speak about the opposite of defence. The fact that the last syllable is stressed when we speak about the opposite of offence is probably why people want to spell it like the common word "fence", whereas people are now using the term "offense" when they stress the first syllable. It's not always been that way. But languages are not defined by their histories, they're defined by the people who use them. Historical linguistics does not determine how people use a language currently.
Offense is simply the American spelling of the word offence. Offence is the British spelling. They both mean the same thing. This is just one example of the difference in spelling words that end in "ence", in American English. You can learn about all of the words that involve this difference on the internet. For example, these pages have good explanations of it: http://www.tysto.com/articles05/q1/20050324uk-us.shtml and http://www.studyenglishtoday.net/british-american-spelling.html
There is a difference in usage. Offense is written by people who speak American English and by people that are writing mainly or only for an audience who speak American English. When writing mainly or only for an audience who do not speak American English, writing offense will not be necessary and will not be appropriate.
If you need to decide on which spelling to use, base your decision on your audience (who will be reading your writing).
If you meant that something is offensive then the spelling is offense. If you mean that you are mounting an opposition then it is offence.
For instance, "I found his remarks concerning the president were a real offense". Or they "were offensive". "The ad company mounted a huge campaign to position the offence against their opponents."

I recently started using a 'TODO' app (wunderlist) to keep track of tasks I need to do. I can keep personal and office stuff on it and since it syncs with my phone and home/office computers, it has been pretty convenient.
I am now looking for something similar where I can write quick notes about the work I'm doing. My plan is to write sort of an 'end-of-day' status report which contains the tasks I did and tasks I need to continue tomorrow. I'd like it to be searchable and have it sync across machines.
Does such an app exist? I know I can roll my own. Many times before I tried keeping a central record of my 'TODOs' but didn't really stick with it until I started using the wunderlist app. Curious to know what others use.

Today I have been having major issues....
I was running Unity2D even though I was choosing Ubuntu in the cog menu (was trying to get transparent panels). This seemed to be caused by my graphics drivers.
After reinstalling my nvida proprietary drivers, I now have Unity3D, but one of my screens shows up as white.
The screen is totally blank (white) and when moving the mouse into it shows a black X icon instead of the usual mouse pointer.
Running the script from this blog make the wallpaper show up, but I still cannot use the desktop on that screen. I can't drag windows there but can move mouse onto it. I'm not sure where to run the scripts so I just run them from a terminal window... maybe they need running sooner....

Road to Worlds Most Famous Brevet Race Paris-Brest (1230km)-Part 1
Dear readers I will try as I best as i can to share a personal life experience with you!
This experience personally marked me and I consider a bucket list experience for every rider-cyclist.
Participation in ultra marathon France PARIS-BREST-PARIS.
The largest holdings of its kind event, and of course the most notorious.
1230 km - 6000 athletes - 80 hours.
I think the numbers speak for themselves.
Let's take things from the beginning.
How I got there and the preparation needed.
So we have to go back three years which was my first participation in such competitions. Eleusis-Lemonforest and back 300km.
Incredible experience, yet fatigue. Experiencing unimaginable situations and reach yourself to the limits, perhaps to surpass ...
The group unique and I say this because in this kind of events you are hanging out with teammates
And not consider them rivals. Everyone will help you if needed and everyone will be there when you bend to support you.
The idea to take part was when I and 2 friends of mine wanted to do ourselves a 400km route in 15 hours.
New for us but tempting because of the magic of the unknown.
That seed was planted inside me!!!
Then 200km, 300km, 5 x 200 km and the Kilometers were passing.
The K- seed (kilometers seed) was growing really fast. The Team had taken the decision about our target –Paris-Brest-Paris One of the world's most popular Brevet
Cultivation started. Long Kilometer training had become habit and entertainment.
When you love the bike, you spent long hours without noticing it.
The fatigue always will ultimately become a pleasure and laughter.
You ride for relieving from stress, entertainment, peace of mind and many others always positive reasons.
Time was passing so fast and the seed of France was growing even bigger and one of my team mates was sharing the same seed J .
We made plans for the feat of France.
Time passed and the speedometer read our kilometers unapproachable until 2 years ago for me. Endless bicycle hours and thousands of miles ... Lord companion music as in my island nobody deals with these kinds of events.
Time passed and the great feat was approaching. The rehearsal << Generale >> 1000km such as the 2010 Tour of Peloponnese. The experience almost no matches for such a great Race and both training not so well due to professional commitments.
Finally the experience unique, from any point of view. 59 hours bike day - night with four hours sleep and 35 degrees Celsius. Sunburned, exhausted but excited about the Result ...Winner at the longest race ever in Greece!
The Big Test before France had passed with big success.
Next Target Paris-Brest-Paris in France.
4 Qualification Races next year of 200, 300, 400 and 600km and then the Dream Race...
The Story Continues ...

Crowds throng to Mall, ready to witness history
WASHINGTON (AP) – There isn't the same crush of humanity as four years ago, but the crowd for President Barack Obama's second inauguration is extending along the National Mall to a giant tent and screen in front of the Washington Monument.
A heavy and steady stream of people flooded the Mall on Monday, stretching out around the reflecting pool.
People snapped pictures with a flag-draped Capitol building in the background.
Betsy Seeber of Doylestown, Pa., said, "I'm not a crowd person, and I was pretty astounded when they estimated there would only be 800,000."
The weather is cool with a steady breeze. Hand-warmers are being sold by street vendors three for $5. In 2009, when temperatures were in the 20s, vendors got $5 for each one.
