Dedicated to Care and Success
A team-oriented approach drives the Blood and Marrow Transplantation Program
"About half the patients we talk with, after their diagnosis, say they feel totally healthy," says Ken Meehan, MD, director of the Blood and Marrow Transplantation Program (BMT Program) at Norris Cotton Cancer Center. "They have a difficult time believing they face a life-threatening condition."
Once they come under the care of the BMT Program, these patients are adopted by a very special team—a team fully dedicated to their care and success. "I believe we have an extremely high-quality, patient-friendly program. We take great pride in our team-oriented approach," comments Dr. Meehan. "Each member takes ownership of what we do here. We have great communication flow—we're not working in silos. We're each vested in the whole approach."
"Transplantation is an intense process for the patient for about three months," Dr. Meehan explains. "Naturally, all patients want to get back to normal as soon as possible. Overall, that takes at least six months. But once they're our transplant patients, they remain our patients. We follow patients for years. They're part of the family."
Patients agree. "Dr. Meehan and Elizabeth Kimtis, APRN, are two of the most professional, kindest, understanding, and easy-to-talk-to medical staff I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with," one patient wrote to the BMT Program following her treatment. "They're willing to spend real time with the patients. DHMC is very fortunate to have them on its staff."
Consistency of Care
Transplant patients are referred to Norris Cotton Cancer Center by physicians in New Hampshire, Vermont, Maine, Massachusetts, and New York. Dr. Meehan believes his team's connection to the special qualities of northern New England is important to patients. "We know this area, its culture, and its people because we are part of it too," he says. "Our physicians and nurses were educated and trained at some of the best schools in the world, and they came here because we offer a world-class facility in combination with a wonderful lifestyle. Our staff doesn't turn over like what happens at some big city hospitals, because we love it here so much and want to stay."
Today the BMT Program performs more than 50 transplants a year. The transplant itself involves intensive treatment for 21 days. Whenever possible, the treatments are made on an outpatient basis so patients are able to rest and recover in familiar surroundings. Those who stay in the hospital for the 21-day treatment period are accommodated in nine patient rooms specifically designated for BMT, with each room featuring privacy, comfortable furniture for guests, and entertainment centers (with a music system, television, and DVD player).
"Our patients receive consistency of care from top to bottom," says practice manager Sue Webber, MS. "In addition to our four dedicated transplant physicians and our nurse practitioners and coordinators, we have a staff dietitian and a dedicated social worker who make sure the patient and family receive all of the information they need to return to their full lives after their time with us."
Northern New England's One and Only
Blood and marrow transplantation—the infusion into the body of bone marrow or blood stem cells—offers patients the chance for a cure or for extended remission of hematological malignancies. High doses of cancer-attacking chemotherapy usually destroy the body's ability to generate blood cells, but after a blood stem cell transplant the body regains its ability to produce new blood cells.
There are two kinds of bone marrow transplant, and both are performed at Norris Cotton Cancer Center. For an autologous transplant, the patient's own blood stem cells are collected before chemotherapy and then returned after treatment. For an allogeneic transplant, cells are collected from another person who matches the patient's blood chemistry profile. Often that person is a family member or relative, but sometimes the best donor is found through a search of a national database of people willing to donate blood stem cells or marrow. The blood stem cells are frozen and stored until it is time to infuse them into the patient's body.
The BMT Program is the only National Marrow Donor Program transplant center in northern New England and is recognized as a specialized center for transplants from unrelated donors.
The BMT Program at the Cancer Center dates back to 1984, and it received a big boost in 2002 when Dr. Meehan was recruited from Georgetown University to direct the staff and facility. He oversaw the development of an outstanding team, finding physicians and nurses with a passion for both transplantation and patient care.

I'd say Michael Crabtree anywhere fits like a glove.
What prospect do you think fits like a glove with a certain team's style of play? I feel like every mocker has an original pick or two that they mock up and then fall in love with. I'm particularly interested in what the homers have to say about which offensive or defensive lineman or defensive backs they think would be a perfect fit with their team's style. You don't have to worry about what pick they would have to take them with, or who they already have on their roster. I just want to know what people think based on the player's styles: any prospect, any position. Give an explanation.
I'll give you guys an example - I think Pat White would be a perfect fit in Miami. He would be a total BEAST in their wildcat formation.
I'd say Michael Crabtree anywhere fits like a glove.
Aaron Curry in Detroit.
No, Tyson Jackson in Green Bay, I cannot see them going anywhere else, we need a 5 technique, he is a 5 technique.
Chris Wells would be perfect for the Jets. Wells and Jones (probably his last year with his current contract) would be a powerful one two punch that would allow the Jets to control the clock, keeping their defense fresh.
NT Ron Brace would be perfect in Atlanta. He could plug up the middle beautifully for them.

Aaron Curry's versatility is the perfect match for the Patriots and the Chiefs.
Clint Sintim seems like someone who would be a perfect fit in NE's system.

Click link or print coupon for a 25% discount on a single item in store or online.

Exclusions: Everything you would consider buying
@highwyre237: Exclusions include clearance items marked with $.97 price endings; Power Play Deals; UGG; Brooks; Babolat; Titleist; Burton; Volkl; Penn Reels; firearms and ammunition.
Those don't sound like popular items to me. I'm probably using this coupon for a nice Nike or Under Armour hoodie or whatever I see in store that catches my eye (both are popular brands that aren't excluded).
The online coupon has more exclusions but whatever you can buy online, you can usually buy in store too.
what about Kettlebells???
Sports Authority is super expensive. If this can only be used on regularly priced items, then the coupon will probably get the the same price you can get anywhere else, or still be more expensive than what you can find online.
@dazoneranger: Normally, I would agree but if you use this coupon on a sale item, it can be cheaper than a competitor's price.

The NCAA, today, announced that the city of Charlotte and host Charlotte 49ers have been awarded the Second and Third Rounds of the 2015 NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Championship. The games will be played at Time Warner Cable Arena, Friday and Sunday, Mar. 20-22, 2015.
"We are extremely excited to have been selected, along with our wonderful partners, to host the 2nd and 3rd round of the 2015 NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament at Time Warner Cable Arena," said 49ers Director of Athletics Judy Rose. "I think that it is obvious that the committee feels that Charlotte does a first class job in hosting and that our community embraces the event. It's wonderful to be able to bring these games to the city and the great basketball fans we have here."
The city of Charlotte is tied for third all-time with 86 tournament games hosted in its history. This will be the 22nd time that the city has hosted NCAA Division I Men's Basketball games.
The 49ers last hosted NCAA Tournament rounds in 2011 when the second and third rounds came to Time Warner Cable Arena. The 49ers also hosted the 2008 NCAA East Regional at Time Warner Cable Arena, which was then called Charlotte Bobcats Arena.
"It has long been our goal to make Time Warner Cable Arena the premier venue for sports and entertainment in the Carolinas and we are thrilled with today's announcement by the NCAA," said Bobcats Sports & Entertainment President & COO Fred Whitfield. "We've had great success with the tournament at Time Warner Cable Arena and we look forward to hosting another world-class event in 2015."
The Charlotte 49ers NCAA Tournament hosting history includes the 1994 NCAA Final Four, which was played at Charlotte Coliseum, then home of the Charlotte Hornets.

General information and backgroundInvented in 1999, the Urban Compost Tumbler was developed with a core aeration system critical to effectively produce high quality organic compost. Designed to be simple to use, clean, fast, and fit in an urban environment where pest and odor control is important. Protecting small children and pets from kitchen and yard waste as they decompose is also important. Recycling by composting at home helps save money, relieve our landfills while improves the quality of soil, plants and our environment.
There are a number of composters on the market today, ranging from compost bins, barrels, drums, and boxes to do-it-yourself chicken wire enclosures. Using this Compost Tumbler has several distinct advantages over other composting options. Here are a few highlights for you.
Simple and Durable: With this composter you don't need special tools to turn your compost daily. Simply rotate the composter on its vertical axis and all the mixing and aeration is done for you. This Compost Tumbler does not have rollers, cranks, or gears that can become clogged and wear out over time. It is made from recycled plastic that does not rust when left exposed to the elements.
More efficient than other compost bins: The core aeration tube is at the heart of this Compost Tumbler efficiency and speed in turning your food and garden wastes into organic rich compost. Again, oxygen is the key and this Composter gets it into the mix better than any other composting product on the market.
Child & Pet safe, Near Odor & Pest Free: It is a fully enclosed and elevated unit. This helps prohibit rodents, insects, children, and even the family dog from getting into the barrel and your compost. The lid screws on tight and the aeration tube at the bottom is closed with a grate.
Works in most climates: Aids in moisture control in extra dry or rainy climates. Being an enclosed unit, this Compost Tumbler is impervious to rain, helps to retain moisture in hot weather, and protects the material from rain and the wind.
Portable: Unlike compost piles and many other composting products on the market, this Composter is more portable, allowing it to be moved into a shed or onto a patio.
Aesthetically fits: In many urban settings, yards have been carefully landscaped and/or neighborhood associations have strongly encouraged aesthetics. This Composter is an unobtrusive addition to the yard, allowing a full range of composting activities without having a "barnyard" look, feel or smell.
Even More Benefits: Besides reducing the waste stream to our landfills, composting at home is an ideal way to create your own organic compost to grow organic herbs, vegetables, fruits and nourish flowers and shrubs. Learn more about the benefits of composting, review some of the sites shown on our LINKS PAGE.
Best Buy: What good does it do to buy a cheaper composter and discover you don't really use it and/or it does not work very effectively? Also, many of the imported composters are cheaply made and do not hold up outside in the elements for long. There are many compost bins and tumblers available on the market and given enough time and attention, they all work. But none offer the advantages of the Urban Compost Tumbler. If you are short on time, want something simple to use, don't want to worry about pests and odor problems, want something that will hold up for years — this is the Composter for you.

6 Insane Holidays You'll Wish You Celebrated
In America, a holiday amounts to little more than a day off from work and a few quiet beers. It turns out that we're really dropping the ball when it comes to finding excuses to party like there's no tomorrow. We should take some lessons from how the rest of the world spends their day off from work, like ...
#6. Rouketopolemos -- Xtreme Easter
Via n1k0s.com
Even if you don't celebrate Easter, you're at least familiar with it as the boring pseudo-Christmas that comes along in the first half of the year. You don't get any presents, but you have Easter egg hunts, which often go hand-in-hand with a church picnic, fair or some other kind of clean, constructive activity.
Via n1k0s.multiply.com
Like raining hellfire.
However, ask someone from the Greek town of Vrontados about Easter and you'll probably trigger a 'Nam flashback. This is all thanks to the Panagia Erithiani and Agios Markos churches and their annual tradition of Rouketopolemos, which translates directly to "Rocket War," which is exactly what it sounds like.
Via n9k0s.multiply.com
"Peace be with y -- EAT ROCKET!"
Rouketopolemos is just a giant unregulated rocket fight between the two aforementioned churches. At midnight before Easter Sunday, the congregations of Panagia Erithiani and Agios Markos go up to their respective bell towers, located on hilltops 400 meters apart. They prepare launching ramps full of homemade projectile explosives before unleashing the Kracken on their cross-town rivals.
Via Thenigo.com
"The Lord is my heat-seeking rocket. I shall not miss."
To win the game, you must hit the opposing church's bell more times than they hit yours, though honestly if you make it through the night with all 10 fingers intact, go ahead and declare yourself a winner. While shit does get pretty damn real on the ground, the real best view in the house is only for the ultra ballsy: right next to the fucking bell.
The next day, after all the inevitable forest fires have been put out, the two churches compare scores, each declaring themselves the winner and vowing to settle the score next year. Ah, tradition.
Of course, not everyone in town is thrilled with this celebration, as much time must be spent each year fireproofing houses and shops that might get winged during the festivities.
Via n9k0s.multiply.com
"Nothing glorifies God like secondhand shrapnel."
But they shouldn't bitch. Today's version of Rouketopolemos is much tamer than it was back before the Ottoman era, when it was celebrated with motherfucking real-ass cannons.
#5. Father's Day from the People Who Brought You Oktoberfest
Quick -- what did you get your dad last Father's Day? A tie? No wonder he never came back when he said he was just leaving to pick up cigarettes. And to think, all this could have been avoided if only you lived in Germany.
See, the German people understand that a dad doesn't want the same breakfast-in-bed bullshit that passes on Mother's Day. Instead, their version of Father's Day, Vatertag, is celebrated in a manner that appeals to much more manly dudes.
Via Matze-berlin.blogspot.com
They come for the beer. They stay because alcohol poisoning has rendered them immobile.
Alternatively known as Mannertag (Men's Day) or, if you add monocles, Herrentag (Gentleman's Day), this holiday is not exclusive to fathers only, as they celebrate it alongside their sons, relatives, friends and anyone else who is fun to get drunk with and attached to a penis. Truly, it is an epic bro sesh.
"Better watch out, Hans. You're lager behind!"
The whole shebang revolves around two things all men love: beer and not asking for directions. Guys pack up plenty of their favorite hoppy-wheaty beverage and wander off into the countryside, sipping all the way.
We're gonna need a bigger cart.
To facilitate the journey, groups first must construct a Bollerwagen to drag their alcohol along in, with designs ranging from the purely functional to, dare we say, downright beautiful.
Via Heute-eine-gute-tat.ed
"This cart is my proudest accomplishment. My children? Eh, they're alright."
As they follow their group's leader, or fuhrer, on a hike through the wilderness, the guys take turns pulling the cart. Dad said it builds character. As the hike becomes a walk and the walk becomes a stumble, the cart gets lighter and lighter, and once all the sweet, sweet brain-cell destroying nectar is gone, the boys head home. Mannertag accomplished!
Though this is clearly one the most awesome parts of German culture, there are some repressed boring losers in the German government who think the holiday needs to be changed to focus more on a father's responsibility to his family. Whatever. On the bright side, having "the man" try to shut your party down really cements the fact that it simply rocks too hard.

#4. Purim -- A Two-Day Halloween Where Drinking Is Mandatory
Via Vosizneias.com
Purim is a Jewish holiday, and as such, it celebrates the same thing all Jewish holidays celebrate: narrowly escaping genocide. Back in the days of the Persian Empire, a bigwig named Haman was going to wipe out the Jews because one refused to bow to him.
Something like this.
Luckily for our skull-capped friends, a spicy she-Jew named Esther happened to be boning the Persian king. The story goes that Esther made moves like a wily sorority girl, throwing a weekend-long party to get the king good and liquored up so he'd take it well when she revealed she was Jewish, which in those times would have been approximately on par with admitting she was a dude. The king was momentarily conflicted, but then remembered that Esther had boobs. He reversed the mass execution orders, having Haman killed instead. L'chaim.
Today, Jewish folks celebrate that they still exist by getting dressed up in costumes as a nod to Esther's hidden identity like some kind of Hasidic Halloween. For ultra-observant Jews, it's the only chance they get to really let their ear-locks down, and they don't waste it on weak gefilte fish.

The guy in the background is not actually in costume.
On Purim, observant worshipers are commanded to get blackout drunk. Literally commanded. As it is written in the Talmud, the official book of Jewish law, "A person is obligated to drink on Purim until he does not know the difference between 'cursed be Haman' and 'blessed be Mordechai'."
Via Benatlas.com
What a dedicated scholar of rabbinical texts.
The thing that makes this booze bonanza truly epic is that thanks to the Hebrew calendar it starts one night and then continues through the entire next day, like all good keggers. Keep in mind, if you're doing it right, your ass is going to be wasted beyond the point of comprehension the whole time. We can only speculate what that Manischewitz hangover feels like.
Manischewitz: Don't just get drunk. Get Jew drunk.

The death of an Oroville toddler has sparked an investigation as to whether neglect was involved.
Around 2 p.m. on Friday, Oroville Police received a call that there was an unresponsive 19-month-old baby on the 1200 block of Fourth Ave.
When paramedics arrived, they found the child, Elizabeth, face-down in her crib. They estimated that she had been dead for six hours.
The babysitter who was supposed to be watching her, Robert Wright, 31, initially said he had checked on Elizabeth, but later admitted that he did not check on her.
Wright was arrested for some outstanding drug warrants.
Elizabeth's mother, Amanda Easton, 22, was not home at the time of the death. Easton has another child, a 3-year-old, who has since been taken into protective custody by Child Protective Services.
Police said that they will have to wait for pathology tests to confirm it, but they said they found some signs of extreme neglect in the home.

CD-ROM and DVD-ROM drives can revert to using PIO mode, despite being set to use 'DMA if Available.' Here's how to make Windows XP redetect the DMA capabilities of the drives.
This behaviour occurs with the following conditions:
To enable DMA mode using the Device Manager
This behaviour occurs with the following conditions:
- Windows XP is the operating system
- A CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive, which is known to support DMA mode now works only in PIO mode.
- The drive controller is set to use 'DMA if available' but reports to be only in PIO mode.
- Open RegEdit
- Find the following KEY: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E96A-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\000x
- The last four digits will be 0000, 0001, 0002, 0003, and so on.
- Under each key, delete all occurences of the following values: MasterIdDataChecksum,SlaveIdDataChecksum
- Reboot the computer. Windows will now redetect DMA settings.
To enable DMA mode using the Device Manager
- Open Device Manager.
- Double-click IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers to display the list of controllers and channels.
- Right-click the icon for the channel to which the device is connected, select Properties, and then click the Advanced Settings tab.

Balanchine Celebration VHS Tapes
Posted 19 April 2011 - 05:00 AM
Posted 19 April 2011 - 05:15 AM
I found Balanchine Celebration VHS tapes (Part 1 & 2) from 1996 on Amazon. Am I right in thinking that this is the performance that includes Suzanne Farrell in "Der Rosenkavalier"?
Hi MakarovaFan,
If you mean this:
and this:
no, I don't think you will find Farrell in Vienna Walzes here.
My copy of these celebrations isn't complete but it includes parts from T&V, Western Symphony, Who Cares, Stars and Stripes, Union Jack, Agon, Apollo,Square Dance and a few others.
These performances included a lot of dancers from other companies but the key thing in terms of your question is that this dates from the early 90s and Farrell was pretty much out of the picture at NYCB by then.
I think you may be thinking of a telecast from several years earlier, not too long after Balanchine's death and that program includes the complete Vienna Waltzes with Farrell in the Der Rosenkavalier section.
I hope I'm not off the track, as I said, my copy of the two part Balanchine celebration from the early 90s isn't absolutely complete.
Here's a copy of the NYPL catalog record for the two part set. It DOES include an exceprt from Vienna Walzes but no casting is given. I don't recall Farrell as part of this program but I didn't remember the Vienna Waltzes excerpt (or perhaps it's missing from my copy) so I'm less certain that I was when I posted my original reply.

San Francisco Ballet's Elizabeth Loscavio did a killer job on that solo on the Balanchine Celebration DVD's, and Judith Fugate was fantastic in "Fascinatin' Rhythm". I was so sad when Stephanie Saland retired with the "Rosenkavalier" performance. I lent my DVD's, but I'm certain they caught her solo curtain call during the credits.

I'm so sorry I didn't keep the program for this.
Posted 19 April 2011 - 01:02 PM
The toast did make it to the original broadcast. Do you remember any of the food?
they sold boxed lunches with food based on Balanchine's favorite foods -- and one for dessert. (Maybe there was a third.) Before the last segment, everyone was given a little box with a mini "Absolut" bottle -- currant flavored, if I remember correctly -- and there was a toast to Balanchine by Martins and Kirstein, and I'm pretty sure this made it into the DVD version.

Stephanie Saland does Der Rosenkavalier on the Balanchine Celebration tape.
Oh this is so disappointing . I recall the 1983 Farrell/Luders "Der Rosenkavelier" on PBS and got confused on the year. How magical she was in it!
Posted 19 April 2011 - 03:54 PM
That is so true!
There wasn't enough of it!
The only thing I remember was that my selection had dill in it, and dessert seemed more American than Russian, but it was the type that catered well.
Posted 19 April 2011 - 04:46 PM
Yes indeed. I can never understand those who dismiss the work of this beautiful dancer as facile. I saw -- and and actually remember -- Diana Adams in the part, dancing with Arthur Mitchell. Bussell had much the same look, I think. And a similar body type.
I was very impressed by Agon with Darcey Bussell
Those with the video can look for Peter Boal, Albert Evans and Wendy Whelan in the Agon corps.
Would love to have seem her in Diamonds.
{Bussell] had also done an Emeralds and/or Diamonds a week or so before.

John Canemaker
Introduced by the filmmaker
Whether as a historian or a filmmaker, John Canemaker is one of the leading figures in American animation. At this program he shares his insights on animation history and introduces a selection of his own work.
Canemaker is an award-winning animator of profoundly original and personal films. His numerous works on the medium's history include Winsor McCay: His Life and Art and Walt Disney's Nine Old Men and the Art of Animation, and he is credited with establishing that Otto Messmer (not Pat Sullivan) is the true creator of the iconic Felix the Cat character. His animation has been included in such films and TV series as The World According to Garp and in episodes of Pee Wee's Playhouse.
Introduced by Canemaker, this evening's selection includes Bottom's Dream, a meditation on A Midsummer Night's Dream, and his 2006 Oscar-winning short The Moon and the Son. Canemaker is currently the director of animation studies in the Kanbar Institute of Film and Television at New York University's Tisch School of the Arts. (program approx. 120 mins., video)
Before tonight's talk and screening, please join us for Wex Mix, a festive reception hosted by 12 1/4 Circle, from 5:30–7 PM in the Wexner Center Café.
Cosponsored by Ohio State's Advanced Computing Center for the Arts and Design (ACCAD).

I only scout players who are under 22 and worth more than £500k, which narrows down my scouting to around 3000 potential players. I'm obviously missing out on the older players, but by narrowing down my searches it seems to be a lot more effective.
I also have 26 scouts which helps

It was a test.
But to compile app.air
We have to use something like
C:\air\bin\adt.exe application.xml
But it is not simple cause we have to know keys and order of params to run.
Do you know how to compile helloWorld on it?
Aptana is good, but also have problems to run.
For example how can I run ExtJS 3.3.1 or ExtJS 4.1 on it?
20 May 2011 1:45 PM #12
After you downloaded the AIR pluging for Aptana studio.
1) Change to the Aptana Perpective and create an Adobe AIR project
2) Tip "AIR" in the text field you should see something like "Adobe AIR Project"
3 )Setup your project the way you want it
4) Do NOT include any JS library that is shiped with Aptana studio
5) Finish. You should have an AIR project set up
this is a regular web project so you are able to add Ext-JS 3 or 4 just like you would add it in any webproject
6) To run : right click on project -> run as -> AIR Application
7) the ADL should pup up
8) To build an .air file : click on the project -> on the eclipse menu there is a button with the tooltip "Export as AIR package" -> follow the wizard
9 ) Et voila
If any question feel free
Ext-JS 4 will not work in the application sandbox of AIR. To know why look at the post of Makana about support for Ext-JS 4.
20 May 2011 9:44 PM #13
Which version of Aptana do you use?
May I ask you to do screencast from installing to do helloworld?
20 May 2011 11:02 PM #14
I'm a command line tool type, too
I only use PSPad as editor. There you have the possibilities to access commands via keyboard shortcut. So I wrote some PowerShell scripts and simply press F9 and voila, we have a new build
To run the application:
# $args[0] Pfad zur aktuellen application.xml $file = $args[0] # Adobe Air SDK aus application.xml Namespace holen $xml = [xml](Get-Content $file) $ns = $xml.DocumentElement.GetAttribute("xmlns") $ns = $ns.split('/') $sdk = $ns[-1] # ADL ausführen $adl = "P:\AIR\SDK\$sdk\bin\adl.exe" & $adl $file
# $args[0] Pfad zur aktuellen application.xml $file = $args[0] # args[1] Pfad zum Ordner der Projektdatei (*.ppr) $project = $args[1] # branch aus XML Version holen $xml = [xml](Get-Content $file) $ns = $xml.DocumentElement.GetAttribute("xmlns") $ns = $ns.split('/') $sdk = $ns[-1] $version = $xml.application.versionNumber; if (!$version) { $version = $xml.application.version; } # Version nicht vorhanden if (!$version) { "Keine Version in $file angegeben" # Tastendruck abwarten Read-Host # Version ungültig } elseif (!([Regex]::IsMatch($version, "\d{1,3}(\.\d{1,3}){0,2}"))) { "Version in $file muss die Form <0-999>[.<0-999>[.<0-999>]] haben" # Tastendruck abwarten Read-Host # korrekte Version vorhanden } else { # Namen des Projekts holen $pParts = $file.Split('\') $example = $pParts[-2] # Pfade $adt = "P:\AIR\SDK\$sdk\bin\adt.bat" $exampleDir = "$project\$version\examples" $projectDir = $pParts[0..($pParts.length - 2)] $projectDir = [String]::Join('\', $projectDir) # Zertifikat erstellen & $adt -certificate -cn SelfSigned 1024-RSA "$exampleDir\$example.pfx" $example # Build ausführen & $adt -package -storetype pkcs12 -keystore "$exampleDir\$example.pfx" "$projectDir\..\$example.air" "$projectDir\application.xml" "$projectDir\html" "$projectDir\js" "$projectDir\lib" "$projectDir\data" "$projectDir\resources" "Taste drücken, um zu schließen..." Read-Host }
--- 2.0.0
--- 2.5.0
--- <x.x.x>
- ExtAIR
-- 3.3.0
--- examples
---- helloworld
----- application.xml
---- <another_example>
-- <x.x.x>
I read the SDK version from application.xml and the name of the project folder (where the ppr-file in PSPad is located, similar to .project in Eclipse) or rather the directory structure in general.
I call the run script with
powershell.exe "P:\ExtAIR\run.ps1" "<path to application.xml>"
powershell.exe "P:\ExtAIR\build_example.ps1" "<path to application.xml> "<project directory>"

Thanks a lot
How diffilcult, I don't understand at all(((
Is the way to get hello.air like this.
C:\air\bin\adt.bat –package hello.air application.xml ?
21 May 2011 12:19 AM #16
You cannot build an air file without certificate. So you have to create one first.
adt.bat -certificate -cn SelfSigned 1024-RSA "certificate.pfx" myPassword
Then you have to build the air file with the certificate.
adt.bat -package -storetype pkcs12 -keystore "certificate.pfx" "hello.air" "application.xml" "html" "js" "resources"
"html", "js" and "resources" are directories you want to include in your build. You can append more directories and/or files you want to include.
All arguments starting from "certificate.pfx" are path's, so you can use "myCertificateDirectory\certificate.pfx" or "builds\hello.air" or something like this.

I can get hello.air but when I try to run hello.air
I get this
In English
It is not possible to instal this aplication due to
not right properties of program install.
Please connect with author of this apllication.
21 May 2011 1:47 PM #18
Why go through all this trouble when there is an IDE for that ?
21 May 2011 4:48 PM #19
Please do screencast how you do helloworld of ExtAir in Aptana.
Of cause for you it is very simple but for newbie is difficult.
The most difficult is first's steps.
21 May 2011 9:40 PM #20
I ll try to do a tutorial for that. Will post the URL later on.

Was Stack Overflow the first website created in the Stack Exchange network?
What is meta?
- Any Stack Exchange user can ask a question
- The community provides support, votes on ideas, and reports bugs
- Your voice helps shape the way Stack Exchange operates
Stack Overflow, Server Fault and Super User had all existed for years before The Stack Exchange Network was created. There was no one "first" site in the network.
Stack Overflow could be considered "first" in that it was the first of the original three mentioned above, but there was no formal Stack Exchange Network at the point Stack Overflow was created.
If you go to Stack Exchange and sort by Oldest you can see what order the sites were launched. Stack Overflow is the oldest site in the network, but it existed before SE, making the wording of your question slightly ambiguous.
If you exclude the Trilogy sites and include SE 1.0 sites, I'm going to guess that its
Since its first question is is dated 9/4/2009 which predates the other SE 1.0 sites non-migrated questions that I could find. That and the fact that its the first logical site to be on SE 1.0
Yes, Stack Overflow is the oldest one.

Federal EPA Chief Stepping Down
WASHINGTON (AP) – EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson, the Obama administration's chief environmental watchdog, is stepping down after nearly four years marked by high-profile brawls over so-called "global warming," the Keystone XL oil pipeline, new controls on coal-fired plants and several other hot-button issues that affect the nation's economy and people's health.
Jackson constantly found herself caught between administration demands to address environmentalists' issues and steady criticism from Republicans and industrial groups who said the agency's rules destroyed jobs and made it harder for American companies to compete internationally.
The GOP chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, Rep. Fred Upton of Michigan, said last year that Jackson would need her own parking spot at the Capitol because he planned to bring her in so frequently for questioning. Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney called for her firing, a stance that had little downside during the GOP primary.
Jackson, 50, a chemical engineer, did not point to any particular reason for her departure. Historically, Cabinet members looking to move on will leave at the beginning of a president's second term.
Despite the opposition, which former EPA chiefs have said is the worst they have seen against the agency, Jackson still managed to take drastic steps.
"I will leave the EPA confident the ship is sailing in the right direction, and ready in my own life for new challenges, time with my family and new opportunities to make a difference," she said in a statement. Jackson will leave sometime after President Barack Obama delivers his State of the Union address, typically in late January.
In a separate statement, Obama said Jackson has been "an important part of my team." He thanked her for serving and praised her "unwavering commitment" to the public's health.
"Under her leadership, the EPA has taken sensible and important steps to protect the air we breathe and the water we drink, including implementing the first national standard for harmful mercury pollution, taking important action to combat climate change under the Clean Air Act and playing a key role in establishing historic fuel economy standards that will save the average American family thousands of dollars at the pump, while also slashing carbon pollution," he said.
Environmentalist groups lauded Jackson for the changes she was able to make, but industry representatives said they have come at an economic cost.
"There has been no fiercer champion of our health and our environment than Lisa Jackson, and every American is better off today than when she took office nearly four years ago," said Frances Beinecke, president of the Natural Resources Defense Council. But she noted that Jackson's successor will inherit an unfinished agenda, including a push to issue new health protections against carbon pollution from power plants.
Sen. Tom Carper, D-Del., chairman of the Senate's subcommittee on clean air, called Jackson's tenure a "breath of fresh air" and credited her for setting historic fuel economy standards for cars and trucks, and for finalizing clean air standards.
But Scott Segal, director of the Electric Reliability Coordinating Council, said Jackson presided over some of the most expensive environmental rules in EPA history.
"Agency rules have been used as blunt attempts to marginalize coal and other solid fossil fuels and to make motor fuels more costly at the expense of industrial jobs, energy security, and economic recovery," Segal said. "The record of the agency over the same period in overestimating benefits to major rules has not assisted the public in determining whether these rules have been worth it."
During her tenure, she shepherded a rule that forces power plants to control mercury and other toxic pollutants for the first time. Previously, the nation's coal- and oil-fired power plants had been allowed to run without addressing their full environmental and public health costs.

I'm looking for named chords - we've already identified a couple others (it's part of a puzzle, e.g. Dream chord, Electra chord, etc.)

I'm looking for named chords - we've already identified a couple others (it's part of a puzzle, e.g. Dream chord, Electra chord, etc.)
It goes: A A# D D# G A A(low) and is played in arpeggio form...
In some non-tertian forms of music a "chord" created by a series of the same intervals (such as fourths) is described systematically by the specific interval and the number of pitches used. This chord would be described as two quartal triads (quartal describing the interval of the fourth and triad because three different notes are used).
These chords are openly inverted and have no real system of usage in terms of common practice. I am not including the second "A natural" because it is a repeated note most likely for emphasis. It seem the chord is built on "A" as a root note.
edit: If you reorganize the notes in this chord you wind up with two sets of three perfect fourths (working under the assumption that "A(low)" means Ab). If both A's are intended to be natural I would posit that this is an Ebmaj7#9 (Eb-G-Bb-D-A)
Seems to me that this is a chord built on stacked perfect fourths with added neighbor notes for embellishment.
A to D is a perfect fourth. D to G is a perfect fourth.
The A#, D#, and A/Ab (I'm assuming by low you mean flat) are neighbor notes -- being that they are one half-step higher than their counterparts -- and do not play a role in the actual naming of the chord.
Composers will add neighbor notes and passing notes, which are dissonant to the main chord or harmony, as a way to add embellishment, tension, and interest.
These tones form the Iwato scale.
A scale is not a chord, but since the sequence is played in "arpeggio form", I believe this is relevant.
As a quizz question, I think the probabilty of Iwato being part of the answer is significant.
Basic triads are one thing, but with more complex chords, in functional haromony, a group of notes can only truly be identified as a chord if they are examined in the context of the chord progression in the musical passage where you find it. There's not much point in trying to give one group of notes a name in isolation. The same group of notes may have different chord names depending on their use in different contexts.
Guitarists tend not to realize this, because guitarists tend to look at a chord as a particular "shape" of fingers on the fretboard, and they want to give one "shape" a name. But composers, music theorists, and other instrumentalists, even piano players, don't think this way.

Day After Day
This ribbon installation, Day After Day, was part of an interactive piece in which I invited visitors to add names of loved ones lost to cancer. I then transferred the names and text onto another black ribbon by burning the letters, forming words. I like to use the softness and transparency of fabric. It becomes alive when someone walks by it or the light changes.
This piece is a tribute to those women who are fighting or have died from breast and ovarian cancer. Three years ago, one of my friends died of breast cancer. Days later, watching myself in the mirror, the body I saw was not mine, it was my mother's. Where do we start and where do we end, like layers and layers of transparency flowing in circles?

This is an activity my brother and I did with our family every winter when I was growing up. This was the first year I grew my very own paperwhites. These are great because they are SO SIMPLE and grow really fast. They'll breathe new life into your home during the cold time of the year when everything outside is not so vibrant. Most instructions I've found online make this process seem too difficult with too many steps and not enough pictures. So here are some easy ones for you and your family to follow.
1. Here is what you'll need:
Bulbs – paperwhite narcissus (from a big hardware/garden center, or your local hardware store, sometimes these are more fragrant.) There are now different varieties, some that smell a lot and some that hardly smell at all, so if you get them at a smaller hardware store they will probably know (and have on hand) the different varieties.
Rocks (I always get mine from a dollar store – 3-4 bags will work, unless you have a huge container and tons of bulbs)
A container to grow them in – I like the more shallow dishes, but these can be very hard to find and honestly, the one I used I inherited from my pops. A glass vase with a wide bottom works fine too, or any other kind of planter you have that doesn't have a hole in the bottom of it.)

WEST (December 7, 2012)—A man was in the McLennan County Jail Friday after police say a small amount marijuana was delivered to a minor near a school campus in West.
Damion Richards, 20, was arrested on a warrant while on his way to work, a West police officer said.
The buyer was younger than 18.
Richards was booked into jail on a delivery of marijuana charge and was awaiting bond Friday afternoon.

Is there a way to make a hedged portfolio using two bonds, one is in EUR, the other one is in USD and FX forward contract? Assume that FX rate follows geometric Brownian motion movement.
You can mitigate your fx exposure (hedge fx risk by engaging in an fixed/fixed fx swap. Let's setup an example:
You want to invest in two bonds, one EUR denominated and one USD denominated bond. Each bond pays semi-annual coupons (at the same dates for simplicity purposes) for the next two years. You are a US-based investor and thus want to earn returns on your investments in USD and not take exposure to fx fluctuations. You can trade an fx swap with the following cash flows:
Now, obviously there will either be a mismatch of notional amounts either at the beginning or maturity of the bonds. As mentioned we can walk through a numerical example but obviously you want to match the notional exchanges at maturity and rather engage in a simple fx spot cash trade at the beginning to match notional amounts between swap notionals and bond cash present value (market prices).
Please keep in mind that standard fx swaps only exchange cash flows at the initiation of the swap agreement and final settlement. But the swap can be structured, as above to exchange periodic cash flows in between. Also, note that you can trade forward-starting swaps in case you already own the bonds and want to have the swap cash flow dates match the bond coupon payment dates. Additionally, you may want to look at an un/mis-matched fx swaps, which basically allows you to exchange different notionals in the spot and forward transactions of the swap. Thus you can greatly customize the swap. But as with everything in life, the more you customize the more you will pay up to get the deal done with your counter party.

How to use Neptune theme
I'd like to use Neptune theme, but when I include the following into my default.scss file:
@import 'neptune/default/all';
error default.scss (Line 126 of _transition.scss: "index(color, transform-origin)" is not a number for `nth') overwrite ../css/default.css
Please advise.

You should just need to make the following additions to your code:

What is the status of the Neptune theme in the latest release?
I have tried to integrate the theme into our product (without changing it) and there are quite a few problems:
1) Paging bar in grids is not displayed properly - Next,Last,Refresh buttons do not have icons
2) A button to show/hide collapsible fieldsets is not shown properly
3) Search fields (from the ux package) look ugly in grids
4) Some "tools" icons are missing
This is just first impressions without looking deeper into it.
All of this makes me think that the theme is unfinished yet as all other "official" themes work fine. If this is indeed the case, can you shed some light on when the final version will be released?
6 Jul 2012 9:19 PM #6
I will have to check with development on this. There are some unique issues with Neptune, hence the delay.

I know some people think that the visions in Revelation 20 are a chronological continuation of the one at the end of chapter 19, while others think that the visions in chapter 20 are a re-framing and recapitulation of the visions before it. Is there anyway to tell from the text how these visions relate to one another?
Sign up

First, there is an incongruity between the narrative at the end of 19 and at the start of 20 that should be observed. The visions in 19:11-21 culminate with the death and destruction of the nations.
We see these from these verses that by the time the rider on the white horse is finished, all that is left of the nations is the corpses on which the birds of the air gorge themselves. Yet, when we come to the next vision in 20:3, an angel is locking up Satan "to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore." If all the nations have just been destroyed in the coming of the white rider, it's hard to see much purpose in keeping them from being deceived. This suggest then, that this vision in 20:1-3 is not meant to be taken chronologically after the one in 19:11-21.
Second, there is a strong congruence between the battle in 19:11-21 and 20:7-10, suggesting that they are one and the same battle. For instance, both of these battles share a common structure:
But even more apparent is that both of these battles seem to share Ezekiel 38-39 as a background text. There, the prophet is told to prophecy "against Gog, the land of Magog" (cf. Rev. 20:8). In that prophecy we see that the people of many nations were gathered as a great army advancing against the mountains of Israel (Ezek. 38:7-9). In verses 15-16 of chapter 38, the armies come riding against God's people on horses (cf. Rev. 19:19, "of horses and their riders"). God tells Ezekiel to prophecy against Gog in 39:4-6, "I will give you as food to all kinds of carrion birds" (cf. Rev. 19:18,21) and that, "I will send fire on Magog" (cf. Rev. 20:9). Again in Ezekiel 39:17-20 God promises a great supper for the birds much like in Revelation 19.
Both the chapter 19 battle and the chapter 20 battle seem to rely heavily on the prophecies in Ezekiel as a background text. I conclude, therefore, that the battles depicted in 19:11-21 and in 20:7-10 are in fact one and the same battle: a once more cataclysmic shaking of the earth at the end of the age.
Given, therefore, the incongruity between the end of 19 and the start of 20, it seems best not to read the visions in 20 as a chronological continuation of the ones in 19. And given the congruence between the two battles, it therefore seems best to see the visions in chapter 20 as a re-framing and recapitulation of the visions that precede it.

For example, I'd like to automatically run YUI Compressor whenever I edit a JavaScript source file to output a compressed version.
Ideally the process does not run in the background but in a dedicated shell, so I can easily terminate the process at the end of the day.
What would be the cleanest and most flexible way to watch specific files and/or directories for file changes and perform a custom action inside a shell?

Western Kentucky University and the Bowling Green Technical School fail to meet objectives set by a state plan. Public universities in the state must meet a list of goals to ensure blacks are given adequate opportunities in higher education.
The Kentucky plan requires Western to retain almost 66 percent of first-year black students. At the end of 2003, Western had retained 63 percent. To help fix the problem Western has created a task force to help the university improve in the areas it failed.
The task force is working to ensure that the university sees more of Kentucky's black students enrolling and completing both their bachelors and masters degrees on the hill.
The Bowling Green Technical School met only one of the four objectives they were supposed to meet.
Both schools are working with high schools to try and attract students as well as raise more money for minority scholarships.
