Hi, everyone:
I have been going over some simplicial homology recently, hoping to get
some geometric insight that I don't know how to get from the algebraic machinery alone.
I have been trying to find the homology of the torus this way, i.e., by triangulating it ( i.e., finding a carrier for the torus), but the smallest triangulation I have been able to do , has 18 triangles/faces --I checked it works; there are 8 vertices and 26 edges. Still: does anyone know of a simpler triangulation, ie., one with a smaller total number of triangles (and, of course, fewer vertices and edges resp.). ?
I had tried the long shot of solving the very simple equation:
in positive integers.
but this alone does not seem to help . Any ideas.?. Any ideas for finding minimal triangulations of surfaces, or higher-dimensional manifolds.?

STEUBENVILLE - Concerned that scores of good-paying oil and gas industry jobs are going to out-of-state workers, Plumbers & Pipefitters Local 495 is taking steps to make sure its members are trained in the downhill welding style the industry seems to prefer.
Keith Saltsman, business agent for Local 495, Steubenville-Cambridge, said it's been a gradual process.
"Right at this time, we do have probably 15 or 16 certified downhill welders," he said. "We have many certified welders, and we're getting them into downhill welding now."
The trades have been up in arms since the first drilling rigs arrived in the Upper Ohio Valley, questioning why, if the industry wants to hire local workers, so many of the people working at drilling sites are from out-of-state.
While downhill welding is "just a very minute part of the whole thing, very minute," Local 495's officers say getting union welders on oil and gas work sites is nonetheless significant.
"We're associated with the United Association of Plumbers & Pipefitters, which represents about 350,000 members across the country," said Ralph White, Local 495 business manager, financial secretary and treasurer. "We spend over $200 million a year on training, so it's not just downhill welding training. We've got the most highly qualified plumbers and pipefitters in the world."
White said downhill welding is not easy. "It's something we don't typically do, because we're into pressure piping, mostly to boiler specifications," he said. "Downhill welding is used primarily on pipelines."
It typically takes union welders eight to 12 weeks to complete the training. "You couldn't take anybody off the street and teach them to do it," he said, noting his members must have years of welding experience and multiple certifications under their belt even before they tackle the downhill style.
Before they can go on some industry work sites, he said they'll have to outfit themselves with a welding rig - a truck equipped with welding machines, acetylene torches, grinders and anything else they'll need to do the job. Two Local 495 welders assigned to a project near Flushing have already made the investment, which White says cost somewhere in the neighborhood of $60,000 to $80,000 per rig.
"But it's an expense these guys are willing to shoulder," he said, provided they know there will be continuity of work. "Nobody is going to spend that kind of money unless they know they'll have an opportunity to go to work, theyre waiting to see if an opportunity presents itself."
Before they're allowed to do any work for the oil and gas industry, Saltsman said the workers have to pass a test. "Every welder we have sent to them has passed the test, so we're making a good showing," he said. "Hopefully, more and more of these jobs will come our way."
Saltsman figures one reason for the shift in industry thinking is that union contractors are starting to get a foothold in the oil and gas business, and once they're on the work site they're turning to union trades people.
"The more they see how qualified our guys are, the more they're liking people in this area," Saltsman said.
"We know there's a lot of jobs that won't go union. But, with all the work that's here, even if we get 30 or 40 percent (it will be big). The big processing plants and compressor stations, that's what we're pushing to get in on - there's a lot of piping work and fabrication involved in those."
Saltsman said the hold-up, really, is getting guys outfitted with trucks and equipment.
"A lot of times they want (our welders) to have rigs and be ready to go out in the field," he said. 'We've never done it that way before. We're used to going out on a job and having all the tools there, waiting for us. It's a different ballgame, but we're slowly getting into it."
White said Local 495 has about 550 working members, almost half of them welders.

Baseball to Face Southern Wesleyan at Fluor FieldJanuary 15, 2014
ANDERSON, S.C. – Anderson University baseball head coach Joe Miller has announced the Trojans will meet Southern Wesleyan on March 5 at Greenville's Fluor Field, home of the Single-A Boston Red Sox affiliate Greenville Drive, moving the originally scheduled game away from SWU's Dr. C. Keith Connor Field.
The Drive is the Class A minor league affiliate of the Boston Red Sox and a member of the South Atlantic League and play their home games at Fluor Field in the heart of downtown Greenville. The stadium, which seats 5,700 fans, opened on April 6, 2006 and was named "Ballpark of the Year" for the 2006 season by Baseballparks.com, beating out such stadiums as St. Louis's Busch Stadium and Medlar Field at Lubrano Park in State College, Pa. The stadium shares the dimensions of Fenway Park, and boasts its own "Green Monster" complete with manual scoreboard.
The game marks the third straight season the Trojans will travel to Fluor Field, previously playing Lander in their last two meetings, splitting the yearly matchups.
First pitch is scheduled for 5 p.m. and AU will serve as the visiting team.
Anderson begins its 2014 slate on Feb. 1 with its home opener against Peach Belt Conference foe UNC Pembroke. First pitch from Anderson Memorial Stadium is set for 1 p.m.

Excellent! Even my 7 year old grandson loved it.
Balsamic & Parmesan Roasted Cauliflower
From EatingWell: January/February 2008
Roasting isn't usually the first cooking method you think of for cauliflower but the results are quite delicious. The florets are cut into thick slices and tossed with extra-virgin olive oil and herbs. Wherever the flat surfaces come into contact with the hot roasting pan, a deep browning occurs that results in a sweet, nutty flavor.
109 Reviews for Balsamic & Parmesan Roasted Cauliflower
This veggie dish is wonderful. The cheese & the balsamic dressing takes this vegetable to a whole different level. It was so so so GREAT! I started using many different types of veggies and everyone loves it.
This is delicious! My picky-eater cowboy ate it up!
Loved this! The cheese, balsamic vinegar, and cauliflower combo is so tasty! A great dish.
In response to the below comment....oregano is the equivalent of marjoram.

Recently I've been spending a lot of time converting perfectly good field names like "Percent of citizens age 25 and over with a bachelor's degree or higher" into things like "edbchogtr" to meet the DBF's 10 character field name limit.
In another thread ("Oddities" in the Shapefile technical specification), geospatialpython commented that "Despite the shapefile format's flaws, oddities, and limitations it persists stubbornly in and around the field of GIS. Every other attempt to replace it has been too bloated for simple vector storage or too proprietary."
This activity coupled with Mr. Lawhead's comment has me wondering: have any explicit attempts ever been made to replace the shapefile as GIS's ubiquitous data storage and interchange format? Are there any contenders? If there have been competing formats, why have they failed? Has Esri refused to support them, or is the story simply one of technological inertia? If there haven't been attempts... why not? It seems like we could do a little better for ourselves, both as GIS developers and users.
(I got a really interesting history lesson from the "Oddities" thread. Please feel encouraged to drop any relevant tidbits about defunct products or companies that you have bouncing around.)

I'm saying kaddish for my mother-in-law. Occassionally, I walk into shul and the congregation is already in the middle of the Rabbi's Kaddish (say at Y'he sh'may raba"). Can I join in that kaddish at all, or have I lost out? If I can join, do I quickly say the parts I missed and try to catch up, or do I pick up from where the other mourners are at? What if I arrived on time, but I'm at a different point in the service?

This Jewish Mourning Guide makes the following points about Kaddish – please see his references:
…(the rest of the Mourning Guide needs careful study).
If you come late it will not be possible to say the Kaddish together with the others word for word. So it seems that you should give up on that kaddish.
When I was saying Kaddish, someone told me how many kaddeshim I had to say. My Rov told me that it was only necessary to say one Kaddish per day.(!)
I am currently saying kaddish for my father in law. My rabbi told me a) not to say the kaddish d'rabbanan (rabbis' kaddish) and b) to say only one kaddish per service.

Mingo Junction isn't alone when it comes to a bleak financial outlook.
Steubenville is struggling with a deficit that may lead to layoffs.
But Mingo Junction has been on a downward spiral for the past several years. The budget has been cut by about two-thirds of what it used to be when the RG Steel plant and its predecessors were operating the steel mill. Then came cutbacks and layoffs and eventually the mill was completely closed. It is set for demolition, but there still is a lingering hope that some company will want to open a portion of the plant.
Without workers at the plant, the village's income tax dropped from $3 million four years ago to about $800,000 this year. The income tax may only bring in $700,000 in 2013, a more than 75 percent decrease in half a decade.
Mingo Council is facing a 40 percent reduction in its general fund budget next year from 2012.
Council has been meeting to discuss the budget but no definitive plans has been set in place. Council heard a proposal to shut off most of the streetlights in September but no decision has been made on a plan that could save the bulk of $70,000 a year spent on the lights.
Council hoped to transfer $250,000 from the community complex fund, which is funded through the income tax, but the state auditor's office shot the idea down, saying village residents voted on the income tax distribution.
The money would have greatly helped the budget going into next year and probably would have delayed the inevitable.
The village is facing a fiscal emergency, which will bring in the state auditor's office to run the finances of the village. Council would then have limited input on those financial decisions.
Council needs to make financial decisions now. There will probably be layoffs of village workers, including police officers and firefighters. Services to residents will be cut.
Mingo Junction had been blessed with the best services to residents for decades thanks to the steel mill operations in town. The money was flowing into the village coffers, but has since dried up.
Council recently voted to fire its village administrator after only seven weeks on the job. The administrator was proposing tough cuts, but council members apparently believed the administrator wasn't willing to work with them. Now council is left to make the financial decisions on its own.
Council needs to act quickly in getting the budget for next year in place. If it doesn't, the state auditor's office will make the decisions for them. That's a job village residents elected members of council to do.
The face of Mingo Junction has changed with the steel mill closing down. But it doesn't mean a new Mingo Junction can't emerge - it just won't be the same as in years past. Residents may be asked to pay more for water and sewer and other services. It is up to council and the residents to determine the village's future.

You should visit your health care provider regularly, even if you feel healthy. The purpose of these visits is to:
Health maintenance visit - men - over age 65; Physical exam - men - over age 65; Yearly exam - men - over age 65; Checkup - men - over age 65; Men's health - over age 65; Preventive care exam - men - over age 65
Even if you feel fine, you should still see your health care provider for regular checkups. These visits can help you avoid problems in the future. For example, the only way to find out if you have high blood pressure is to have it checked regularly. High blood sugar and high cholesterol levels also may not have any symptoms in the early stages. A simple blood test can check for these conditions.

The Advice You Should Get About Hotels
You can be sure of getting great hotell bergen information if you're here right now. It's a good idea to work on getting the best in hotell oslo, because they are something you invest your money into. Don't get bad service and take in this article because it will teach you how to avoid that.
Compare prices at websites like Orbitz and Expedia to ensure that you receive the best available rate. If you are a member of a loyalty program, use that info when checking rates. You may also qualify for discounts from other organizations you belong to such as AAA or AARP.
To minimize your travel expenses when you are staying near a resort area like Walt Disney World, choose a hotell trondheim that offers a complimentary shuttle to nearby attractions. In this sort of area, you shouldn't need to rent a car. Instead, use a cab to get to your hotel and then use the shuttle to enjoy the fun.
When making a hotell tromsø selection, you should consider many things. Price is important but a shabby, dirty hotel room is no bargain at any price. A gym, pool, free breakfast, free wireless Internet, free local calls, and all kinds of other things may be important. Look for a hotel that gives you a lot of the things you are looking for.
Look into club-level rates. While these rooms are more expensive up front, they typically offer a great value. For example, included in the price could be breakfast or dessert, Wi-Fi service or other perks, like drinks and snacks. See what is offered and decide if the extra cost is worth it to you.
If you are out of the room for any length of time, protect the valuables you leave in the room. In addition to leaving expensive items in a safe, leave the television on when you are out of the room. That will make it look like you are still there and thieves will move on.
Never assume that all hotels are pet-friendly. Call before you book so that you know for sure. Always ask about what exactly a pet-friendly policy entails, as there could still be limits on breeds and sizes.
If you want to take your pet along on a trip, take care of three tasks before you leave. First, ensure that the hotel actually allows pets. For easy cleanup, make sure that you have brought along an adequate number of plastic bags. Be kind to other hotel guests by requesting a room that is as far away from other guests as possible, so they won't be disturbed by any noise your pet may make.
Make location a top priority when it comes to searching for hotels. If you are going to be staying in a city and want to sight-see, it may not be wise to stay in a hotel 30 minutes away from all the action. Ask the hotel about attractions close by or look up their location on the Internet.
If you are going to stay in a hotel, be sure to give them a call the day before you are due to arrive. Hotels are not responsible for calling guests to confirm their reservation; that is up to the guest. Always call the hotel to be sure your room is still reserved.
To save money on a trip when you are traveling with a large family, choose a hotel that offers a free breakfast. Even if it's just continental fare, you're saving a significant amount of money by cutting out having to pay for that one meal each day on the road.
To get the most out of a hotel room on a business trip, look online at the various choices to see which places offer a free happy hour. At the end of a long day of meetings, having a free margarita or beer at your hotel before getting ready for dinner can be quite pleasant.
As you can probably tell, hotels aren't that mysterious when it comes down to it. You just need a few tips like the ones above and you'll do fine when trying to get a hotel. Whatever the reason may be for your stay at one, hopefully it's as comfortable as you want it to be.

What would you do if you lost your house and all of your possessions? What if your business was swept away? Could you go on, knowing friends and maybe even family members were missing? It's so hard to imagine even one of these devastating losses, but for thousands of people in Japan all three have been a reality.

I have two questions and I hope it is alright to ask them both at the same time. I'm currently trying to solve an online-exercise about differential calculus and the Taylor series and I'm having some trouble there.
Let $f: (a,b) \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be differentiable at the point $x_0$. Which of the following statements is true?
- $f(x) = f(x_0) + O(x-x_0) \;\; (x \rightarrow x_0)$
- $f(x) = f(x_0) + f'(x_0)(x-x_0) + O((x-x_0)^2) \;\; (x \rightarrow x_0)$
- $f(x) = f(x_0) + f'(x_0)(x-x_0) + o((x-x_0)) \;\; (x \rightarrow x_0)$
I am pretty sure the third statement is true, because that's basically our definition of the Taylor series. However, I'm not quite sure about the other two statements, though I believe either both or none of them is true. When proving the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, we once "replaced" $o(r^k)$ by $O(r^{k+1})$ which already then I found hard to understand. Can one always do this? In that case, all three statements would be correct...
Let $f(x) = e^{\frac{-1}{|x|}} \cdot \cos(x^{-1})$ for $x \neq 0$ and $0$ for $x = 0$. $f$ has a local maximum or minimum at $x=0$.
Again, I am not sure at all. I plotted the function and came to the conclusion that it has a minimum at $x=0$. However, we usually have a minimum when $f'(x_0) = 0$ and $f^{(n)} (x_0) > 0$, where $n$ is an even number. This function is arbitrarily often differentiable and I believe at none of the derivatives $f^{(n)} (x_0) \neq 0$...
I'd be delighted if someone could help me out here.

Architect 2.2.2 B 971 Failing when there are Visual Source Safe files.
At first could not convert the project which was under source control using Visual SourceSafe. All files were checked out but the presence of the .scc and vsscc files caused the conversion to fail. Was able to convert a copied version of the project (with no source control files present), but now when I open architect it errors out (Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set property 'meta' of null) and after clicking ignore the project is empty.
Complains about a vssver2.scc file (from source control). Previous versions would give a warning and then continue to open the project successfully.
Removing SourceControl (i.e. deleting the source control files) and it opens normally.
Please advise of a fix or work around.
10 May 2013 12:44 PM #2
Jibbercan -
We believe we've fixed this issue and it will be in our next update.
Can you please share the project (with source control files) with us privately so we can verify its resolved?

Absoutely, I didn't see how to upload files privately though. Can you point me in the right direction?
13 May 2013 10:42 AM #4
You can email it to us at architect.feedback at sencha.com and provide a link to this thread.Aaron Conran
13 May 2013 1:57 PM #5
Yes this is a bug that will be fixed in the next patch. What may not make the patch is an ignore pull request that won't warn you about vssver.scc and vssver2.scc aka visual source safe files. If it does not Architect will simply warn you about these files on each open. It can be safely ignored.Phil Strong

My question is more regarding career etiquette and maybe "social / emotional quotient", but for me it is a matter of "personal productivity" and I think it would be a great fit here. Sorry also if the question title isn't precise, I'm no Native speaker, please don't hesitate to edit it.
Recently, I often received "Out of office" auto-replies. And these drive me crazy. Though - to their professional defense - those emails in almost all cases do include an alternative contact person, which is recommended to be contacted "in urgent cases" or "if the matter is urgent".
We have got a problem here though: When is a matter truly urgent? As we are all human and inherently subjective and "self-involved", I dare to say that we all like to assume that our personal / professional matter delivered to the "out of office" recipient is of urgency or such importance that it can't wait.
While I am aware of this tendency, I can't claim that a certain impatience, tension and maybe even anxiety builds up at the prospect of ones matter not being addressed at all for the next 10-14 days. But for me it is very important to be respectful, reasonable and act adequately in my response, thus I try to not just forward the issue at hand right away. But it is hard for to define objective and fair criteria on which I should measure and decide if my issue should better be processed by the colleague of my recipient or not. Because I know that, if I'd never forward my e-mail, I'd also often do myself a big disservice, as such delays may objectively impact my ability to proceed or act on information that is thus yet withheld from me.

Is debugging Android applications remotely from eclipse supported for Kindle Fire platform?
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
According to Amazon's FAQ on Kindle Fire, Kindle Fire has USB debugging enabled by default. To connect Kindle Fire to your Android Debug Bridge (ADB) follow the instructions in this PDF.If you are working with Windows 7 you will need to download and use this driver. They are also providing USB drivers for download for Windows 7 PC. Moreover, we can also emulate Kindle Fire specs on Android emulator by using the following parameters.
They don't offer separate developer devices. You can use the Kindle Fire devices which you can buy online.
After installing the device driver, I had to modify your adb_usb.ini
It's also possible to easily install an unsigned APK of your app for testing: http://androidforums.com/amazon-kindle-fire/448193-install-any-app-kindle-fire.html
I found that this post is helpful enable usb debugging. Although it is not as simple as 1,2 3. There are a number of steps involved to enable it. But it can be done. http://www.freerepairguide.com/kindle-fire-enable-usb-debugging.html
One drawback to debugging on Fire that you do not find on other devices - when your computer is connected to the Fire device it has blocked the I/O Socket. If your app downloads any files while it is running you will receive an alert that the file could not be downloaded but the debug error in the log will actually show that there was an I/O error. Unplugging the USB cable and attempting to download again will work, but when you plug back in you're back to square one with it wanting to install your app all over again.
Keep in mind that your app target AIR version MUST be no greater than version installed on KF. Otherwise you have to update AIR on KF. (I've answered here how to do it)

You can setup "UsefulFunction[a, b]" to use custom infix notation "a [LeftRightArrow] b" as follows:
AddInputAlias["4" -> ParsedBoxWrapper["\[LeftRightArrow]"]];
InfixNotation[ParsedBoxWrapper["\[LeftRightArrow]"], FlatJoin];
But using a unicode character that does not have a mathematica definition (e.g. "\[name]") such as "\:27d7" gives you an error:
Now the syntax highlighting is broken, and that is really my question: how can you tell mathematica to correctly syntax highlight new unicode infix operators?
(Note: the messages can by avoided by adding internal information on the character as follows:
Notation`Private`internalCharacterInformation["⋗"] = {"0x2295", "Infix", "450", "None", "3", "3", "MyOp"}; InfixNotation[ParsedBoxWrapper["⋗"], FlatJoin]
I'm now pretty sure that the answer will involve editing /Applications/Mathematica.app/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/TextResources/UnicodeCharacters.tr
and adding something like
0x22D7 \[FlatJoin] ($fj$ $&FlatJoin;$ $\oplus$) Infix 320 None 4 4
and then using the Notations package...

The Little Lies Spouses Tell
Some Experts Call It 'Buffering'; If Not Excessive, It Can Make a Marriage Happier
In 47 years of marriage, there are a few things Sherri Mills hasn't told her husband, Gerald, such as what she really spends on makeup. Or how she indulges the kids.
But these things don't compare with what Ms. Mills calls the "one real whopper of omission" in her relationship with her husband. It involved her ex-boyfriend, Jim.
In the early years of her marriage, living in the small town of Helper, Utah, Ms. Mills would sometimes run into Jim and his family, with whom she had once been close. Knowing her husband was prone to be jealous and hot-tempered, Ms. Mills would try to avoid her ex-boyfriend or, if that failed, then say as little as possible to him. She knew her husband was suspicious that she might still have feelings for her old flame.
Then Ms. Mills learned that Jim's mother was seriously ill and wanted to see her. Ms. Mills went to the hospital, where the woman made a deathbed request: Would Ms. Mills speak with Jim and encourage him to sell the family-owned business (a bar, then known in Utah as a club) and strive for a more-settled life? The woman believed Jim still loved his ex-girlfriend and would listen.
Ms. Mills decided to try to help, yet she knew she couldn't tell her husband. She made plans see Jim at his sister's house, and brought her toddler son along to make sure the ex wouldn't misunderstand. She stayed 20 minutes, then went home and didn't tell her husband about the meeting for 40 years. "It kind of ate at me," says Ms. Mills, now 71 and the owner of a hair salon. "But I knew I did the right thing."
If you think this evasion sounds a lot like lying, you are right. But there are other names for the seemingly harmless lies spouses and romantic partners sometimes tell each other.
Hiding worries or concerns to shield your partner from something unpleasant, or even just to keep the peace? Researchers call this "protective buffering." Hiding something to protect yourself, such as how much you spent on your new toy? Researchers call that avoidance. Routine buffering can turn into avoidance or something worse.
Couples often wrongly assume full disclosure is always best, says Sean Horan, a professor of relational communication at DePaul University in Chicago. But even avoidance, when not excessive, can be a "productive strategy," he says. Consider how you'd feel if your partner told you any or all of these:
"I left work early for a drink with that friend you hate."
"I can't stand your brother."
"Yes, those jeans make you look fat."
Often the more open partners are with each other, the less happy they are, says Marianne Dainton, a professor at La Salle University, in Philadelphia, whose research focuses on communication in personal relationships. In dozens of studies over the past 20 years, Dr. Dainton has found people often say sharing too much is a source of relationship dissatisfaction.
Does being open lead to dissatisfaction? Or are dissatisfied people more likely to be open? Dr. Dainton says she doesn't know.
Avoiding a topic so as to avoid a fight is often good, Dr. Dainton says. But avoiding topics like financial mismanagement or addiction isn't protective buffering. It's selfish. And as for the biggest lie of all, marital infidelity—whether to tell or not is an important question, but not the primary one a person will need to address if unfaithful to a spouse, therapists say.
Experts suggest a cost-benefit analysis. Will the information be more harmful to the relationship if disclosed up front, or discovered later? Consider disclosing if withholding gets in the way of intimacy, experts say. But if it will only hurt your partner, then don't tell.
It isn't necessary to mention the crush you have on your co-worker. "Thought broadcasting is never a good thing," says Toni Coleman, a McLean, Va., licensed clinical social worker and relationship coach. And beware of "putative secrets," the ones you only think you are keeping. Chances are you are already busted.
The buffering method you choose will make a big difference: Active lying is more damaging than avoidance, research indicates.
A study published in the Journal of Social and Personal Relationships in 2009 found 71% of people whose partners actively lied to them said it created distance. Among those whose partner kept a secret but didn't lie, only 43% said it created distance.
"When people overtly lie about something, they can take something innocuous and make it into a bigger problem," says John Caughlin, the study's lead researcher and professor of communication at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Experts say gender isn't a factor—both men and women withhold information.
Gerald Mills, 67, a retired manufacturing-plant manager, has had his share of secrets over the years. He has hidden new hunting and fishing equipment in his truck and gone out for a drink with friends instead of doing errands. Once when his wife was away, he took their young sons out for a lobster dinner and swore them to secrecy. No need to guess how he got caught.
Ms. Mills, who went on to write a book about her marriage, "I Almost Divorced My Husband, But I Went on Strike Instead," says she never doubted her decision to keep the long-ago meeting a secret. (The ex-boyfriend was relieved to hear his mother's wishes; he thought she wanted him to keep the business going.) After the ex died about a year ago, Ms. Mills finally told her husband. "At the time, I would have been angry and thought she was cheating on me and it would have derailed the marriage," Mr. Mills says. Instead, "we went to bed happy."

I am interested in proving existence/uniqueness to: find $u(x,t)$, $v(x,t)$ such that $$u_t - a_1u_{xx} - a_2u_x - a_3u -a_4v = f$$ $$v_t - a_5u_{xx} - a_6u_x - a_7u - a_8v_{xx} - a_9v_x - a_{10}v = g$$ where the coefficients $a_i(x,t)$ are in a parabolic version of Holder space (say $C^{k, \alpha}([0,1]\times[0,t])$.
Is there already literature where this is treated? I tried Ladyschenkaja but there this type of system is not present (I believe in that book, they require $a_1 \equiv a_5$). I would appreciate if anyone had any references to this problem.
I believe though that I can probably apply a fixed-point argument to this -- again I would appreciate if someone gave a pointer as where such things are discussed. Thanks.

As we know iOS 6 integrate Facebook, just as twitter. And we can login Facebook in settings and then post photo directly. I follow by https://developers.facebook.com/docs/howtos/login-with-facebook-using-ios-sdk/ to create my app for testing with Facebook SDK 3.0.8. After I login in Facebook on iOS6 settings, when I open my test app and login to Facebook, it still ask me to input my account/password.
So my question is: Could my App share the account with iOS6 integration Facebook account?
I mean: After I login Facebook in settings, could I don't need to input name/password again when I open my app and login facebook?

IHA Trade Mission Tours Brazil And Colombia Retailers
Wednesday September 4th, 2013 - 9:24AM
These are shortcuts to your favorite social networking and bookmark sites. Add this story to your Facebook page, del.icio.us, DiggIt, and many others!
The IHA/Housewares Export Council's Trade Missions, held most recently in June 2013 in São Paulo, Brazil and Bogotá, Colombia, allowed vendor attendees to meet one-on-one with buyers in these targeted markets.
The recent International Housewares Association/Housewares Export Council Trade Mission to South America presented a unique opportunity for vendors to get introduced to the markets in Brazil and Colombia through touring the housewares departments in a variety of different types of retailers, including hypermarkets, housewares specialty stores and home improvement stores.
One-on-one meetings with retailers at their buying headquarters or in scheduled meetings at other locations allowed vendors to show product samples directly to buyers for feedback on potential sales, and whether they meet the needs of the South American consumer. For some vendor attendees, it was a follow-up trade mission visit with certain buyers to facilitate reorders or to present complementary products to their existing line in the store.
Visit HomeWorld's Pinterest Board to see more store merchandising from Brazil and Colombia.
"The mission of the International Housewares Association is to bring buyers and sellers together and our primary method is through the International Home + Housewares Show, and that leaves the rest of the year open to different types of trade events," said Derek Miller, vp/international, IHA. He added, "We have a turnkey program so the member attendee only has to focus on selling the products, they don't have to worry about the logistics or setting up the appointment."
Combining these meetings with retail tours, the goals of the trade mission is to help attendees understand the market as a whole, see who their competitors are and where their products fit in from a "good, better, best" pricepoint strategy, and to come away with a good network of buyers, whether it be the retailers or distributors. "It makes that second visit much more efficient, as they are able to follow up directly with the buyers most interested in their products," said Miller.
When there is a need from its members to learn about a particular international market and the trade mission format wouldn't be appropriate, the IHA has set up other avenues to exhibit their product and connect with distributors and retailers, such as a product pavilion. An IHA Pavilion at Interior Lifestyle China in Shanghai is set from September 25 to 27, 2013 and a "Japanese Market Introduction" is set for Tokyo from September 29 to 30, 2013, an event that brings together Japanese importers, retailers and distributors to one location to meet with vendors, and also includes retail tours.
The next international stop is the HECNA Global Forum, which will be held in Panama City, Panama, September 15 to 18, 2013. The event includes Panama City retail tours, educational seminars, networking sessions, as well as a HECNA buyer reception and tabletop trade show in which IHA and HECNA have invited Central American and Colombian retailers to attend this networking event in which vendors have the chance to promote their company and display their products.
The next trade mission, which is sold out, is to Sydney and Melbourne, Australia, in November followed by a South Africa Trade Mission from September 14 to 19, 2014 to Johannesburg and Cape Town, and a return trade mission trip to the same two Australian cities in November of 2014. The 2014 HECNA Global Forum will be held June 9 to 11 in Bogotá.

To the editor:
Let's talk about the Edison Local School District levy. Those who are working so hard to get this levy passed say it's all about the kids - is it? I don't think so.
Everyone who works for the district will still get hospitalization for practically nothing. This money will add to their pensions and they will probably be asking for pay raises.
Let's look at the other side. Hundreds of property owners are on fixed incomes, and some have lost part or all of their hospitalization as well as their pensions.
We know property taxes are going to go up, but they don't talk about these things. All they say is that it's for the kids.
The only thing Gov. John Kasich asked was to go to arbitration and pay a little more on their health care and retirement. As of now, Edison's full-time employees pay only 5 percent and taxpayers pay 95 percent. These facts are from the article "SB 5 will affect health care," that appeared in the Herald-Star on June 20, 2011.
I think the time has come for those who work so hard to get these levies passed to spend more time in Columbus lobbying their legislators to get a fair way to fund schools. Use some of that effort that you used in the last election to get SB 5 defeated. Then we can all have an extra buck to buy something nice for Christmas.

IE9 ignores simple SASS variable values
Ext version tested:
- Ext 4.1 rev RC3
Browser versions tested against:
- FF11 (OS X, Windows)
- Safari 5.1.5
- Chrome 18.0 (OS X, Windows)
DOCTYPE tested against:
- html
- Following the directions in the Theming Guide to setup a simple project, IE9 ignores $base-color, $button-default-base-color, and probably others. I realize this might be an IE bug but still thought it was worth posting here.
Steps to reproduce the problem:
- Create a new Ext JS project, add a simple panel & button
- Follow the instructions in the Theming Guide to switch over to using SASS/Compass
- Change $base-color & $button-default-base-color in your SCSS file
The result that was expected:
- For the colors to be correct in all modern browsers
The result that occurs instead:
- All browsers except IE9 display the correct color
Test Case:
See live test below
See this URL for live test case. Note that the panel header should be red, and the button should be blue:
You can download a zip file of the code from http://bienick.com/bugsassie9/
Debugging already done:
- none
Possible fix:
- Make it a federal crime to use any version of Internet Explorer?
Additional CSS used:
- custom css (as generated by the Compass compiler)
Operating System:
- Windows 7

For IE you also need to run the slicer tool to have the theme behave.
IE9 and less do not support linear-gradient, so that background on the panel needs to be an image. Similarly, only IE9 in strict mode supports border-radius, which means more images for the IE9 quirks and IE<=8.
Check out this part toward the end:
Supporting Legacy Browsers
In most cases when creating new UI's, you will want to include background gradients or rounded corners. Unfortunately legacy browsers do not support the corresponding CSS3 properties, so we must use images instead......Evan Trimboli

Thanks for your reply, Evan. I definitely saw that section towards the end of the Theming Guide, but I didn't think IE9 was considered to be a legacy browser since it's the most current version. May I politely suggest that you have someone update that page to be more specific about what constitutes a legacy browser?
Rhetorical side note: I often wonder how far along web development would be if we could recoup the hours lost to supporting any version of IE.

SDK help text needs updating as well
Just wanted to add that the SDK help text needs to be updated as well. If you type sencha slice theme -?, you'll see:
The Sencha Theme Slicer allows you to take your custom theme and slice up images for browsers that do not support border radii or linear gradients. This is the case for IE 6-8.

Stack Overflow is, I think we can all agree, The Best Thing Since Frozen Waffles. Unlike sad knock-offs such as digg (where Questions are called "Stories", Upvotes are known as "Diggs", and Downvotes referred to as "Buries"... good grief, people - we're not all children), the material posted to SO has Real Value. Programmers world-wide visit it to learn and share, leaving better able to do their jobs, get paid, and buy waffles. I don't think it's going too far to say that SO puts food in programmer's mouths.
That being the case, I was saddened to find that the hated digg labs offers powerful data visualization for their pointless inanity, though naturally all are hidden behind cutesy names like Arc, Bigspy and Swarm. People, this is an outrage! Are going to sit by and let Digg make a mockery of all that is Good and Right in this world? Or will someone step forward, some brave soul skilled in the arts Flash or Silverlight, one who could whip something up that feeds off of the rss, html, and json data-sources found here on the SO-sites?
With our serious, business-oriented Questions, Comments, Votes and Flags you could come up with some very visually-stunning representations of recent activity, and once and for all show the kids over at Digg what Real Programmers can do.

MIDLAND (November 20, 2012)—National Transportation Safety Board investigators plan to re-enact the factors that converged, leading to a deadly crash involving a train and a float on which veterans and their wives were riding after a parade in Midland.
Four veterans were killed and 17 other people were injured in the crash.
The NTSB scheduled the test for Tuesday afternoon at the Union Pacific railroad crossing in western Midland where the crash happened.
One person remained hospitalized Tuesday in Midland with injuries from last week's crash involving a freight train and the veterans' parade float.
Midland city spokesman Ryan Stout says Midland Memorial Hospital transferred to a critically injured patient to a hometown hospital after the patient's condition was stabilized.
Hospital spokeswoman Marcy Madrid says she doesn't know where the patient was transferred.
Madrid says that leaves one patient in stable condition at the hospital who will eventually also be transferred to a hometown hospital.
Meanwhile the driver of the parade float struck by the Union Pacific train has been identified as Dale Andrew Hayden, according to officials who spoke on condition of anonymity.
The NTSB says oilfield services company Smith Industries owns the truck involved in the crash in Midland.
Hayden's attorney said Tuesday the driver is under a doctor's care and remains "very much in shock" after deadly crash.
Attorney Hal Brockett said Hayden, 50, is a veteran who served in Afghanistan and is now a truck driver for an oilfield services company.
Brockett says words can't express Hayden's "sorrow and remorse" for the victims.

For what kinds of wall structure - tile type combinations a waterproof membrane should be used between walls and tiles?
It's a shower. It needs to be waterproof.
A product I've used and liked is RedGard:
You install your backer board, then 'paint' this on. It's basically an adhesive roll-on rubber membrane. You then tile right on top of it.
I like this better than the traditional plastic-behind-the-backer-board for two reasons 1) You can easily put holes in the plastic during construction (screw holes, for instance) and 2) the RedGard is closer to the 'wet side' of the wall, reducing the chances of water getting into the wall.
As DA01 said Always use wetseal, considering how much it costs it is a worth while investment
You can also get a professional to do this for you. Having a good wet seal job is very important for the longevity of your bathroom
This YouTube link is pretty good, explaining what can go wrong, as well as how to do it well.

Revert From Architect 2.1 to Architect 2.0
I loaded 2.1 this morning. The code that worked yesterday under 2.0 now does not work. I open the project in 2.1, it asked me to upgrade it to 2.1, i said yes. When I run the code in a browser, it fails. Specifically the comboboxes in my grid only show the first choice.
Hey, it's nice that 2.1 is there. But I have work to do, which was proceeding nicely using 2.0 (442).
How do I revert to 2.0/442?
15 Aug 2012 12:18 PM #2Aaron Conran
15 Aug 2012 1:04 PM #3
Yes, I upgraded to 4.1
Yes, I have this line in my index.php that loads 4.1. Just to be sure, i also sent an alert() to my screen from app.js that told me the extJS version: 4.1.0.
sencha_library_ver_override = "extjs-4.1.0";
15 Aug 2012 1:54 PM #4
Not ready for prime time....
@Sencha folks.....I really hate to rain on the parade of all the praise you're receiving on this release of Architect 2.1, but this software is garbage and a huge step back. I can only assume that those praising your efforts have not even opened the new version yet. They can't have because it is so bug laden that I would classify it as unusable. As I mentioned in another thread, it is overwriting external files in the application directory. In addition, working with views and components is a nightmare. It is doubling and tripling the components in Design view (not the components themselves but their representation within the Design window). Simple things like setting the Flex on a button won't work (randomly). I've attempted to clear or reset the flex values, but the interface won't commit the typed value. So, naturally, when you deploy the application, you get JS runtime errors because the value of Flex is an undefined object. These are just a few examples of oddities that I've encountered and I've only been using it a few hours.
I've been trying to make the switch from Adobe Flex to the Sencha technologies for the past few months. I'm REALLY trying to like working with ExtJS and Architect, but you're making it extremely hard to do so. This "upgrade" is a disappointment at best. I, too, would like to go back to version 2.0

delete new ion files
By the way, when I navigate to the folder with SA in it, and delete the xds-2.1.0.000584.ion file, each time I start SA, that file comes back.
To downgrade go into the following directory and remove all files with a build # higher than 442. ie "xds-2.1.0.000584.ion"
So this does not seem to work, at least for me.

Brute force way of downgrading... Delete the AppData folder and install this.

The DMG download you link to is still version 2.1. I even ran it directly out of the mounted disk image and it clearly states "version 2.1 build 584" or something like that.

OK....You also have to delete some preference files located in "Users\Library\Preferences" and in "Library\Application Support\Sencha, Inc." You then have to re-register the application, and then bypass the "New Version Available..." dialog. Then, the above DMG file works.
Thank You,

It's from the Japanese saying, 読書百遍意自ずから通ず(Repeated reading makes the meaning clear). In this case, the ず ending doesn't make the verb negative. What is the function and nuance of this usage? Is this a verb form from the old days reserved for use in Japanese proverbs and perhaps some other specific and narrowly defined instances? Another example where this is used in the same way is 窮すれば通ず [きゅうすればつうず] (Necessity is the mother of invention). Is there another example with another verb that uses the ず ending in the same way?

I'm guessing it derives from
通ず comes from the verb 通ずる (to lead to). In this case, ず is used as another way to conjugate the 〜する/〜ずる verb.
In answer to your question:
Here are just a few examples based off of this post by urutorasenpaiさん where this ず can commonly be seen:
Seeing that 〜ず, in this case, seems to happen most often in ことわざ or classical Japanese would seem to indicate that this is possibly more of a poetic, stylistic conjugation and use of the verb. It helps with fitting verbs into a smaller amount of syllables, as well.

Is there a source to connect (mystically, or otherwise) those enemies of the Jews (presumably Amaleki) killed in Megillas Esther 9:12 with the 500 men from the tribe of Shimon who killed out the remainder of the Amaleki in Divrei Hayamim I 4:42-43?

The shiur that was referenced states that the reishish chochma says that Mordechia donned sak (sackcloth) which is gematria 400 to counteract Eisav (who attacks the Jews with 400 men). The sak leads to tzayis (listening) which is gematria 500. The magid shiur then pairs this with the pasuk (in ki sisa) kach lecha besamim mor dror (mordechai) chamesh meos (500). This all parallels the 500 people killed by the Jews in shushan.
He doesn't mention anything about Shimon and those 500 men but it would fit very well with what he was saying (someone should tell him). Especially because Shimon is related to shmiyah (listening)
Listen to this shiur which discusses this idea: http://www.filefactory.com/file/7gdq80su0oxb/n/Drasha_Purim_RCK_-Purim_2012_mp3
