Unanswered: Grid doesn't update if store record values are changed directly (bug?)
I'm not sure if it's a bug or if this is by design, but the grid doesn't update its values if the store data is simply changed via direct assignment (record.data.field = newvalue). I had to create a secondary store that I clear out and repopulate each time I need the grid refreshed.

There is no way it could ever know. You need to use the API (the set method) if you want things to work
16 Nov 2012 11:42 AM #3
Is there some way I can notify the store that data has been updated? Or is there a method I need to use to update the data rather than direct assignment? I looked through the documentation and tried a number of things but none of them worked, so I must be missing something.

Beige balletsThe praise of the fair
Posted 20 December 2008 - 01:40 PM
The women wore brown leotards.
Do you have any recall of ballets so eenh! that they were outstanding?

When writing, one of the biggest dilemma is the beige performance, or as I put it, the one that's "fine."
I was reporting for a magazine on a triple bill out of NYC on three ballets very familiar in NYC.
It was fine.
It wasn't bad. It was fine. It wasn't markedly different than the interpretations given in New York, the dancers weren't doing much that was notable, the ballets are well-known here and the performances just gave me very little to say.
Reviews like that feel like having to give a 45 minute talk on a five minute topic.
Posted 21 December 2008 - 08:47 AM
We've talked about great ballets at length, even discussed memorably bad ballets. Are there any that stand out in your minds as so mediocre that they are memorable? For me that would have to be "Opus 1", Cranko, to the Webern Passacaglia. We worked like devils on it, and it was difficult, and well-crafted, but what am I left with as a recollection?
The women wore brown leotards.
Do you have any recall of ballets so eenh! that they were outstanding?
Oh Mel - I know I was a very green 17 year old from Miami but 'Opus I' has haunted me since the first time I saw it at City Center - 1975. The uneasy music, the shapes of the body and unusual usage of the corps. I remember Ingrid Fraley and Burton Taylor in beige or as Arpino would call it mushroom doing wonderfully crafted architectural pas de deux work. But the lighting was so spooky I couldn't tell the corps was in brown.
I consistently ask for a revival in every rep. meeting.
Posted 21 December 2008 - 09:18 AM
Edited to Add: You know, maybe if there had been more dancers who had done the first production around, "Opus 1" would have been revived. The dancers enjoyed doing it. In a parallel, D15 was slated to be scrapped, but the dancers who danced it liked it so much, management relented. There are just ballets you have to dance, I guess.

Helgi Tomasson's 'Blue Rose' would qualify as my 'beige'. Pretty costumes, pretty music, lots of tricky-looking lifts presumably interspersed by pretty steps, but I just couldn't keep my eyes open. (The only other ballet that has ever put me to sleep was 'The Dybbuk', but that wasn't beige, that was awful.) It was like watching an advanced ballet class I had seen -- or taken -- dozens of times before.
Posted 21 December 2008 - 03:48 PM
... so mediocre that they are memorable
You make me think of certain empty-calorie desserts, beautifully presented in a restaurant: smooth, cleverly concerived and executed, well-blended as to texture and flavors, looking lovely in photographs and in verbal description, but leaving one disappointed and even hungry not long after swallowing. What you remember is the strange feeling of being let down -- as though you have failed, not the chef.
Peter Martins' amiable Barber Violin Concerto comes to mind. I liked it -- along with its conceit of the classical couple dancing along with and in contrast to the modern couple. I recall, however, having no memories of the actual steps just a few days after seeing it twice. (Seeing this with couples who were a bit too similar in style may have been part of the problem.)
Posted 21 December 2008 - 05:29 PM
I congratulate everyone who is able to add to the list.
I really dislike Barber Violin Cto, primarily for the section with the classical man and modern woman. She is like a gnat, and I just want to swat her, no matter who is dancing the role -- even my adored Bouder. But the parts for the classical woman are probably beige. Don't know for sure, though, because they're pretty much forgotten.
Posted 22 December 2008 - 04:47 AM
NOW I remember!! Suddenly I can even see the dancer. I kind of liked her, however.
She [the modern woman in Barber Violin Concerto] is like a gnat, and I just want to swat her, no matter who is dancing the role -- even my adored Bouder.
Yes indeed. And it's in work like this that "classical" choreography -- as done in recent decades, at least -- so often earns its bad name.
But the parts for the classical woman are probably beige. Don't know for sure, though, because they're pretty much forgotten.

And the ancient tradition of the De Gustibus threads is that they require no explanation or defense. "De Gustibus non disputandum est"
Martins is quite adept at mixing the yellows and browns and whites. Occasionally, he lapses over the line into the memorably intolerable, or the very good indeed, but given his latitude in choreographic output, "Even a blind hog has to find an acorn now and then."
Posted 22 December 2008 - 04:23 PM
Good point. Alas, many of us did not have the chance to see this cast. When performed by dancers who are equally classically trained -- in other words, NOT in the league of avid Parsons and Kate Johnson -- the effect is rather different. Building on this, perhaps casting is another factor that can make a ballet turn to "beige."
Similarly, "Barber Violin Concerto" seems to me one Peter Martins ballet which is NOT forgettable and nobody who saw the original cast of Merrill Ashley, Adam Luders, David Parsons, and the equisitely gnat-like Kate Johnson will ever forget it. So what are we talking about?
Posted 22 December 2008 - 04:27 PM
Love that! ( M.J, may I borrow the phrase ...?)
"De Gustibus non disputandum est"
BTW, at first I nominated a ballet for the Worst categorie, while it was still fresh in my memory for a few days. By now...well, it is basically GONE. (And then, considering how VERY colorful was the costume design...far from beige, well, is even more sad.)
and the winner is...
Miss Twyla Tharp's one and only NIGHTSPOT!!!
(What was all that about...? "Dunno" remember )

Lauren Conrad's Hair Truth: 'These Are All Extensions'
Courtesy Glamour
When it comes to dishing about intimate beauty secrets, who is more qualified to hear from than reality TV's favorite best friend? In May's "Friendship" issue of Glamour, cover girl Lauren Conrad not only opens up about her own two best pals, Whitney Port and Lo Bosworth, ("They're my support system," says L.C.), she also divulges a rarely acknowledged tidbit about her famously shiny, wavy locks: "These are all extensions." Conrad explains, "I chopped all my hair off to my shoulders. I thought I was doing a chic bob. It was so bad." The best-selling novelist and designer even talks about her body image. "I've never felt a push to be stick thin," she says. "I work out and eat healthy, so mostly it's about being in shape and having energy." But even with all of her hard work, the 24-year-old star has had to accept her imperfections. "About a year ago, I looked down and thought, 'I have cellulite. Where did that come from?' I went through treatments; [my body] was like, It's not going anywhere.'" To read the full interview with Lauren, pick up an issue on newsstands starting April 6 or visit glamour.com.–David Yi

10 Plastic Surgery Mistakes No One Talks About
You've heard about the chance of blood clots and infection -- but these common plastic surgery side effects will shock you
"Plastic surgery is major surgery," says Semira Bayati, a board certified plastic surgeon in Newport Beach, Calif. -- and a lot of times, no matter how skilled the doctor, crazy side effects can happen.
Skip to see the surprising things you don't know about plastic surgery here.
Knowing about these less-talked about ways that plastic surgery can go wrong is more important than ever, considering the growing number of people in the U.S. who are opting for cosmetic procedures. According to a recent survey, 51 percent of the population approves of cosmetic and plastic surgery. "As the numbers suggest, people in every income bracket, single or married, male or female, view plastic surgery as a reasonable option today,� says Felmont F. Eaves III, MD, President of The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery.
So, before you sign up for a Botox session at your next dentist appointment or lust after a nose job when "Us Weekly" runs enviable before and after shots of Ashlee Simpson, read on. You'll want to know about these shocking ways that plastic surgery can leave you with less than stellar results. They happen more frequently than you might expect.

text: Hey guys, it's me again and I'm back with another fun, simple and basic tut on "how to draw a rug". I know that this lesson seems useless, but the truth is drawing rugs can come in very handy because when you create your own house designs and you want to add an accent rug, at least you will know where or how to start. The run is pretty simple. I wanted to make something that is seen in houses a lot and the only thing I could think of that was common is a fringe edged carpet. Of course you can create any design you wish, I just wanted to keep things simple. Anyways, thanks guys and enjoy!

WHEELING - John Mattox firmly believes that to have any idea where you're going, you must understand where you've been.
It was that conviction that led Mattox, whose great-grandmother was a slave in Raleigh, N.C., to open the Underground Railroad Museum in Flushing, Ohio, about 20 years ago. Mattox spoke Thursday at West Virginia Northern Community College as part of the school's events surrounding Martin Luther King Jr. Day, which was officially observed Monday.
Mattox has dedicated his career to preserving the memory of the Underground Railroad - the network of secret routes and safe houses used by escaped slaves, at great risk to themselves and mostly under the cover of night, to seek freedom in the North or even Canada - and its ties to the Ohio Valley.
Article Photos
John Mattox, curator of the Underground Railroad Museum in Flushing, Ohio, discusses the history of slavery during a presentation Thursday at West Virginia Northern Community College's downtown Wheeling campus. -- Ian Hicks
As he discussed early America's history, he pointed out that Wheeling had its own bustling slave auction block, at 10th and Market streets, in sight of the historic Suspension Bridge.
Even though slaves were bought and sold in downtown Wheeling, Mattox said there were many blacks in the area who were free. But that freedom could sometimes be tenuous, Mattox noted, as a sign near the old auction block read "Unattended children will be sold as slaves."
"This could happen. It did happen. We have documentation," he said.
But the Ohio Valley was also rife with places where slaves could seek refuge on their journey to freedom, including the Joel Wood and Jacob Van Pelt houses in Martins Ferry, the Quaker meeting house in Mount Pleasant and others. Many of these sites are stops on guided tours of four to five hours arranged through the museum.
Admission is free to the museum, where Mattox acts as storyteller and invites visitors to share their own stories with him. And unlike at other museums, patrons are encouraged to handle some of the artifacts in order to help the past to come to life.
"I want you to feel. I want you to touch. When I show you a yoke, I want you to know that someone's neck was in that yoke," Mattox said.
Mattox's talk traced the struggle for racial equality through the abolition of slavery by the 13th Amendment, the formation of the Ku Klux Klan by former Confederate leaders, the enforcement of "Jim Crow" laws aimed at preventing blacks from voting and exercising other constitutional rights, until the present.
The election of Barack Obama as America's first black president, he said, was an event that as a child, he never predicted he would see.
"Look how far we have come. ... No matter what comes out of it, it's a great day for America," Mattox said of Obama's presidency.
He added that as a youth, he found that because of the color of his skin he could not do many of the things he wanted to.
"Today I can, and I am blessed for that," Mattox said.

I save the Newform.aspx, browse to the Discussion Board and create an Item with Subject 'Test'. All is good. But when I go to create a second Item With A subject of 'Test" I get an error saying 'A Folder with the name Lists/dd/Test already exists.
If I use the DataFormWebpart I am allowed to create discussions with the same name , but if I switch to A DataFormWebpart I am not.
Is this a known issue? Are there any work-arounds?

I'm working on this as my project for a yeshiva program, and I'd like some input
What does the concept actually mean? It's only mentioned briefly in most of our scripture and commentary.
Are there any sources you can use to back up your view?
I'm working on this as my project for a yeshiva program, and I'd like some input
What does the concept actually mean? It's only mentioned briefly in most of our scripture and commentary.
Are there any sources you can use to back up your view?
Yeshaya Leibowitz, in his book "Judaism, Human Value, and the Jewish State", adamantly argues that the phrase "light unto nations" as used in Tanach (in Isaiah) is referring to the prophet Isaiah himself, and not to the nation of Jews. It is the prophet who is supposed to be the light unto nations. He claims this original usage was changed by the early Zionists for political reasons. The Jewish people, on the other hand, are supposed to be a "nation of priests" who serve the other nations in a teaching or ministerial role.
When we bring the light of Torah into the world, then we are a light unto the nations.
By practising Judaism and being generally good (honest in business, no lashon hara (slanderous speech)), you become a role model that others will aspire to become. Non Jews will see your ways, and see that they are good and will copy some of your traits. By being a light (a flame) unto the nations, you provide the flame to those around you, they in turn become a light to spread. Even though you have given your light away, it still shines as bright as ever, if not brighter, as it is at no cost to you.
This brings us onto dugma (leading by example.) While one can talk about being a light, this cannot compare to actually being a light, so while it's all very good saying to a gentile be honest in business, the light is only there if you yourself are honest in business.
"... Don't walk behind me, I may not lead. Just walk besides me and be my friend and together we shall walk in the path of hashem."
We can become a light unto the nations by reflecting Hashem's wisdom in the world. We model Chochmas Hashem when we follow the Torah properly. I believe the source for this is a Pasuk in the Torah in Parshas Va'eschanan, chapter 4, verse 6:
As an aside, it would seem the barometer of when we are keeping the Torah properly is when the other nations will look to us and say what a wise and intelligent nation we are. The people will see the tremendous wisdom in the system of Mitzvot. Only then will we be truly keeping the system properly.
Some of Levinas' writings explicitly relating to the Talmud might seem appropriate here. I'm certainly not expert enough to comment on the Talmud aspects, so I have tried to simply compile a few passages from Beyond the Verse that might seem relevant to your concern here. From "Model of the West," which elaborates Tractate Menahoth 99b-100a:
A few pages later, he has worked his way back around to this theme:
This may all seem a little dense. Sarah Hammerschlag, in The Figural Jew, may help contextualize some of these remarks -- this is in fact in the context of a broad presentation of Derrida's reading of Levinas, but I think it is apposite nevertheless, and explicitly connects some of the themes Levinas is discussing above with the phrase you are asking after:

Star Wars Millennium Falcon Bottle Opener for $19.99
not on sale but perty cool!
12 Comments add a comment
Thanks for posting. Saw these at SDCC, but didn't know they were out yet. There's a similar Death Star bottle opener coming out sometime this year too.
I almost forgot this was called postcoolstuffthatsnotanactualdeal.woot instead of deals.woot
"deal" <> "sale" also "deal" <> "cheap"
A "deal" is anything perceived to be a good value for the price. To some, this is a good deal or even considered priceless if you're a scruffy nerf herder.
This is the best deal I've ever seen on a Millennium Falcon Bottle Opener.
I don't crack open enough bottles of Romulan Ale to make this a worthwhile expenditure.
I don't even like Star Wars, but I'm buying one anyway.
Shouldn't this be $1.99? That would be a deal.
"That's hot"
What the hell's an aluminum falcon?
@caisburning: I'm concerned about your level of alcohol intake. It appears to be too low.
I'm like Star Wars but not 26.00s like.
@caisburning: I find your lack of inebriation.... disturbing.

CHINA SPRING (February 2, 2013)--A local teen hopes congress doesn't ban military assault weapons.
Madison Butler got her first gun at the age of four.
She practices at the Central Texas Rifle and Pistol Club in China Spring.
"Once she got to the expert level, a man saw her shooting and said you should get her into shooting the AR-15s," Sara Leatherman, Butler's mother, said.
Butler began shooting with an AR-15 and soon started competing in competitive shooting.
She is one of the youngest to compete in the high power rifle division.
"It feels pretty cool knowing you are one of the youngest and your out there doing it with all the older kids.
At 13 years-old she has already gone to a national competition using her high power rifle.
"I think if she keeps focusing and practicing, I think the sky is the limit," Leatherman said.
Butler's shooting talent could get her college scholarships.
President Obama has urged congress to ban military style assault weapons, which would put Butlers dreams on hold.
The AR-15 was used in many of the recent mass shootings.
"Guns don't kill people, people kill people," Butler said.
Butler and her family hope high power rifles are not banned, so she can continue to shoot for her future.

Life is not a problem. It is a miracle, a gift, a teaching, a celebration. Thanksgiving acknowledges the miracle of life - every gift - and saying "you're welcome" is a kind of thanksgiving in itself. It acknowledges the gift of thanks. It says that we live in a world of beautifully interacting thankfulness. It affirms that we live in a world awash with treasures, with miracles and blessings, that we are blessed with an endless array of people, moments, experiences, surprises, magic, curiosities, and beautiful coincidences to which our only delighted, ecstatic, and unchanging response should be thanksgiving.Thanksgiving is the soul's acknowledgment that all is well, that life is a grand and beautiful gift, that all we have to do is carry ourselves to the altar of life with a shouted breath of thanksgiving. Give thanks

I have had this peculiar problem for years and tried many tools to solve it, but so far none were satisfactory.
I read a lot of blogs, social sites, etc. and regularly encounter very interesting pieces of information that I know could be useful for me later and I want to preserve. The problem is that by the time I may need them (probably months later) I completely forgot where I have seen that information and how exactly this site was called and what it was about. Only thing I remember is that there was this really great article that is relevant to what I'm doing now and I made a note to myself to get back to it when I will be doing that but that's it. Very irritating.
I tried using bookmarks aggregators like Delicious, but it doesn't solve the problem completely, since I have by now more than 1000 bookmarks there and only way I can find anything there is the tags - but I regularly discover that tags that I used when I saved the info aren't the tags that I'd look under when I need it! For example, I stumbled upon a great site with free pictograms and thought - aha, I like it and it'll work great if I make presentation about X, so I file it under "free pictograms" - and in 3 months I am making presentation about X and try to find the site where I've seen these nice icons - but the tag "icons" shows nothing! Neither does "pictures"! Hmm... I can't use the thesaurus each time I find something useful, right?
So, is there a better way to manage these pieces of information?

Sneak Peek: Victoria Beckham Bares (Almost!) All in Emporio Armani Underwear Campaign
Courtesy Armani
First David Beckham famously stripped down to his briefs for Giorgio Armani, and now his wife Victoria has done the same. After announcing several months ago that she would be the latest model for the Emporio Armani underwear line, the ads have finally come out. And the results are simply stunning — moody black-and-white portraits shot by Mert & Marcus that show the lithe mother of three lounging around an unmade bed in her barest essentials. Rumor has it that Posh is under contract with Armani through 2012, so get ready to see a lot of Posh in magazines and on billboards near you for the next few years. Victoria says in a statement, "It's an honour to have been selected by Mr. Armani to represent the Emporio Armani Underwear brand and to execute his vision with the incredibly talented team of Mert & Marcus." Tell us: What do you think of Posh's underwear ads?

Which harmless pranks do you know that would be great to play on your collegues?
locked by Michael Mrozek♦ Jan 22 '12 at 19:50
This question exists because it has historical significance, but it is not considered a good, on-topic question for this site, so please do not use it as evidence that you can ask similar questions here. This question and its answers are frozen and cannot be changed. More info: help center.
I do not know if this qualifies as a prank, but you can watch StarWars on a shell !
Install "sl". Choo choo! http://www.tkl.iis.u-tokyo.ac.jp/~toyoda/index_e.html
"SL (Steam Locomotive) runs across your terminal when you type "sl" as you meant to type 'ls'. It's just a joke command, and not usefull at all. Put the binary to /usr/local/bin."
Sometimes I'll ssh into my machine at home and spook my wife (or the cat) by playing a message over the speakers using festival text-to-speech.
Append this line to
No matter where the victim
From the bash man page:
I'm sure you'd be able to find more creative variants of
Not necessarily UNIX-specific, but I like modifying the
et cetera, and then setting up Apache with an
I've used this re-direction script prank inside my office to turn browser images upside down.
You'd be amazed to see how people panic when they think they've acquired some type of virus.
You can also use the prank to make images blurry (you choose the degree of blurriness), pretty funny when you don't overdo it -- people think their eyes are tired or the monitor is wonky.
...I'm not sure about harmless, but I once set my roommate's default runlevel to 6. That was an amusing afternoon (for me).
Heres a harmless prank.
You will be surprised how many people dont know about the tty stop character. So when your victim leaves his or her terminal, stop the terminal using Ctrl-S (thats what it generally is, stty -a would show you the key on that terminal). And then when the victim comes back, he or she will be trying hard to get the terminal back to life...
And if you find someone who keeps leaving his terminal.... you are really in luck!
My favorite is logging in to a nearby computer and playing cricket or frog sounds.
While working away in Miami FL, I had my whole family, back in Oregon, searching for a frog in the garage.
Back in school, in the CS lab (sun workstations at the time) I compiled mpg123 from source in my home directory (that was fun) and then whenever anyone would walk out of the lab (w/out locking their workstation), I would modify their .cshrc (the workstations default shell) to play "Imagine" by John Lennon whenever they logged in. It amused me to no end hearing that song, playing ever so quietly (the workstations only had internal speakers) from all over the lab any time of day or night that I walked in.
Such fun :)
One I really like is to alias ls="sl" (requires sl installed, which may or may not be a problem).
For those not in the know, sl is a program that, being a common typo of ls, was created to train you out of typing sl. It displays a rolling choo choo train, that you can't break out of with C-c or C-d (unless
You can even make it do different things with some parameters. Per sl(6):
I don't recommend using -e if you're going to mess with your coworkers, but the rest have some serious laugh potential.
Back in the days of terminal-only systems, I created a program that simulated the login program but just kept saying, "Login incorrect". I then set it running on a colleague's terminal while he was at lunch.
When he came back, he got really confused and panicked wondering if his password had changed or something, and actually called me over to ask me to help him with the problem. I started to make all sorts of plausible-sounding but useless suggestions for things he might try, and was able to get away with sounding completely innocent for several minutes, until finally he smelled a rat when I ran out of reasonable suggestions and started saying some truly outlandish things! We then had a good laugh over it together.
This one works great on Windows, but can be applied to KDE or Gnome as well:
It will look as if the computer completely hangs, however in fact it is working perfectly well. If you are especially mean, you might have in the screenshot a Firefox window with a tillating or embarrassing web site. (Don't do this in the office.)
Way back when I was in university, working late night on a project on a Unix terminal (just a tty, not X Windows), all of a sudden messages like "Are you hungry?" "Why are you still working?" "Deadline is tomorrow, just give up & go to sleep!" started appearing on my screen.
Turns out a buddy was across the room,
These days systems are more locked down, I doubt it's as easy to find writeable terminal devices. Unfortunately this was many many years ago, so I haven't tried it in a long time, maybe there is a different way to do it now.
For emacs users, there's the nefariously evil broken-keyboard.el which makes the victim think their keyboard has weird problems.
Add to .inputrc:
This one guy came up with a list of aliases that could be put in .bashrc when interviewing someone for a linux/unix sysadmin job position. I'll post the full list of aliases here, but if you wish you can read the full article here. I find it to be quite funny..
Most remembered prank that I ever played on others were two, while I was studying.
Had a nice fun, both related to password trickery. I would not encourage this now. As I am now in the shoes of System Administrator and strictly discourage people sharing their passwords not even on web. If doubtful, contact SysAdm for legitimacy of the site in the local network.
set DISPLAY variable to their PC name/IP.
Works for X11 displays, if you can get to it, with "shortcuts" on the desktop:
Works on Windows(TM) too.
Warning: Its a
A fork bomb is a process that clones (forks) itself, the clone then does the same, and those clones do the same, etc etc. It grows exponentially until all system resources are consumed, and the system hangs. It's a real nasty piece of work, and not a prank by any means.

I'm looking for the best way to send passwords over the internet safely. Options I've looked at are PGP and encrypted RAR files. There are no real parameters other than getting from point a to point b over the internets without too much risk.
PGP or another asymmetric encryption method would sound like the way to go ..
=> secure & private
Any mechanism that uses asymmetric keys (like SSL or PGP) is good. Basically, it means that you encrypt the data (password in your case) with other person's public key, and the only way to decrypt it is to have access to the private key (which only receiver does).
The only thing to worry about PGP is who do you trust, because spoofing can easily happen when people sign their own keys.
Read the web of trust section in the wikipedia entry for PGP for more info about that.
What about calling the recipient with Skype?
You should also make sure the receiver has to change the password before being able to use whatever service it's for - authenticating the change with the sent one-time-password. This will provide further protection against theft - and/or slightly better chances at discovering one if it required the thief to change it, leaving the true user with an access denied prompt ^^
Send a one-time-use link, which links to a page (using SSL) where the password can be created. If anyone else discovers the link, it's likely too late for them to use the link. You'll need some kind of reset ability, just in case the link is intercepted and used before the intended recipient.
If you are on windows, you might want to listen to Security Now 201: SecureZip
AFAIK SecureZip implements/automates the asymmetric encryption approach I described above.
You might want to try NoteShred. It's a tool made pretty much for your exact need. You can create a secure note, send someone the link and password and have it "shred" it self after they read it. The note is gone and you get emailed a notification to let you know your info is destroyed.
Its free, and doesn't require any sign up.
If it's a one-off thing, you can use my tool: http://tanin.nanakorn.com/labs/secureMessage
It uses Javascript to do RSA encryption. Therefore, your password never leaves your or your friend's machine. Please see FAQ in the above page for more info.
To do it regularly, you'd be better off using PGP or SSH keys, so that you don't have to generate a new pair of keys every time.
I tend to use synchronous methods for password transmition. Often I just IM someone and tell them that the password they are waiting for is xxxxxx. That way there is no identification of the server that the password works on and I can send it when I know the person is sitting there to change the password immediately.
You don't give a lot of details regarding what's needed, but I keep my passwords in a Keepass file that is stored in a Dropbox.
We just put out a web and mobile app to do some of this. It creates random URLs for credentials kind of like a URL shortener, using HTTPS and a hashed/AES encryption method for storage. Theres a simple API for devs, heres our writeup, maybe its the simple solution you need.. http://blog.primestudiosllc.com/security/send-time-limited-secure-logins-with-timebomb-it
An HTTPS encrypted web form might work well. I would worry about the RAR file, because if someone captured the whole file they could brute force the password until it broke. Capturing and putting together an HTTPS stream isn't too easy, especially with a large keysize. They could then be stored in an encrypted database or something, possibly only retrieved through a secure web form as well.
PGP would also work, if you had some way to exchange the private keys securely and could trust that those wouldn't be compromised on the other end.

Somerset Berkley got right down to business.
The Raiders (7-7) scored three runs in the first inning and finished with 14 hits in beating New Bedford 10-1 in softball on Monday afternoon at the Ashton Complex, field No. 2.
In avenging a 3-2 loss at New Bedford earlier this season, Somerset Berkley got a gutsy pitching performance from freshman Savannah Neilan.
Though she allowed nine hits and two walks, Neilan struck out eight and stranded 10 Whalers (5-9).
"She hit her spots well and mixed her speeds," SB coach Sally Gamache said.
Somerset Berkley leadoff batter Danielle Silva was 4-for-4 with two runs scored against New Bedford pitcher Katelyn Santos, who filled in for injured ace Alex Soqui.
Mackenzie Ferreira was 2-for-4 with a double and three runs batted in.
Casey Chodkowski was 2-for-3 with a double and two runs scored and No. 9 batter Sam Rogers was 2-for-2 with a double, and her courtesy runner, Danielle Ferreira, scored twice.
After striking for three first-inning runs, Somerset Berkley scored single runs in each of the next three innings in building a 6-1 lead.
New Bedford scored in the third inning on Sarah Hope's RBI single.
The Raiders scored four runs on five hits in the sixth inning.
"We have Dartmouth today (Tuesday) in a makeup game, and we want to come back and hit the ball like today," Gamache said.
Chodkowski smacked an RBI single and Ferreira followed with a two-run double in the first inning.
Rogers singled in the run in the second inning, and in the third, Chodkowski led with a double and scored on Kaitlyn Machado's base hit.
Sienna Kardel led the fourth with a single and scored on a Graca fielder's choice for the 6-1 lead.
In the sixth, SB sent nine batters to the plate. Rogers belted an RBI double. Graca singled in a run, as did Ferreira. Another run crossed on an illegal pitch.

Spring is just around the corner, which means warmer temperatures, budding flowers and the threat of severe weather. The second Tuesday of every March, the National Weather Service and Emergency Management teams across the state check their warning systems.
In Warren County Tuesday morning, the COWS and CALVES warning systems rang loud and clear. It was only a test, but one that Warren Countians took very seriously, especially in schools.
"Students went through the proper procedures they'll need to follow if severe weather hits this spring. This is a good time for them to brush up and remind everyone what to do."
Brian Lowry with Emergency Management says it's also a good time for officials to check their equipment. Lowry says there were no major problems, and two new sirens were activated for the first time. All reports indicate they are working just fine.

This show was part of the "2011 Early Summer Tour."
While very familiar with Phish's music, last night was only my 6th show (I'm an old crusty Dead Head who never jumped on board until 09). Caught a lot of firsts last night... Daniel, Access Me, Vultures, Sand, Roses, On your Way Down, Waves, ABQ, and Wading. Loved all my firsts, 'cept Wading. I get Wading, it's just too repetetive and slow for me.
Last night had a "Saturday night" setlist feel to it, with lots of classic hits. I'm still too much of a noob to be sick of AC/DC Bag, Wilson, Antelope, Chalk Dust, or even RandR. Love those tunes!
The band was on. I couldn't pick out a flub if it was wearin' a tee shirt that said, "Hi, I'm a flub". I don't drink, I'm pretty critical, and consider "listening for flubs" part of the concert "sport".
Highlights for me: AC/DC bag, Vultures, Sand (good jam), Roses, Reba (nailed it), Antelope (very high energy), Birds (I love Birds), Tweezer, Chalk Dust, RandR, 2001, Faulty Plan and Suzy (high energy).
Another highlight was watching John K from Furthur try to pretend he could traverse the MPP parking lot without being recognized and stopped every 5 feet to shake people's hands. Sorry John, time to break out the fake mustache. John K and his wife stopped and shook every outreached hand. What would Jerry do (sorry, couldn't resist).
Lowlights: The mellow songs! They weren't played bad, I just can't stand when the energy from a show comes crashing down on me. With so much energy about, even Horse, ABQ, and Velvet Sea couldn't bring me down.
Can't wait for tonight.....
Birds of a Feather and Tweezer were average, fun versions. Tweezer was followed by The Horse>Silent in the Morning, as it was last year at MPP. Another song that had a very strong year, Waves, came next. Unfortunately, this version did not include the post-lyrics jam, which the other versions of the year had. Despite this, I really like Trey's playing in the first jam section. The transition to Chalkdust Torture was abrupt, but the BOAF infused CDT was very good. The meat of the second set consisted of versions of Rock and Roll and Piper that were given the storage jam treatment. The segue between Rock and Roll and Albuquerque was great. The end of the set had really high energy. Page was all over Suzy Greenberg.
P.s. no glow sticks in the pavilion? Their were tuns in the lawn I saw, was a minor downer
P.s. #2 kick as poster
birds of a feather wasnt the best to begin the 2nd set. a little weak, but pleasurable. tweezer sort of surprised me. horse>silent in the morning were ok, just to lower the energy a little bit. waves>chalk dust was a little choppy. i could tell trey just wanted to get into it immediately. stealing time was great, as well as a high energy suzy.

I consider myself an introvert and never spoke much. For example, when I'm in class and I know and answer to a question my professor asks, I usually don't say anything. And when I'm eating with friends, I usually run out of questions or things to talk about quickly.
How can I overcome this problem of not participating in class or running out of things to talk about?

I understand that we use the chain rule to differentiate the $y$ part of it. Like if it stood $xy$, I would use the product rule, that say that the derivative of $y$ is $dy/dx$. But what if it's just $y$ alone or with a constant in front off it?
Thank you!

This is thought experiment. I couldn't get a good answer because I keep getting negative mass.
Gauss's Law say that eletric field is proportional to charge, how much charged is enclosed. Newton's gravitational pretty much says the same thing. More mass, strong gravitational strength.
So to put it mathematically
$$\vec{E} \propto \sum Q_{en}$$
But charge can be negative, a negative sum of charge means the electric field is going inwards.
$$\vec{g} \propto \sum M_{en}$$
But mass can only be positive, but g is then propotional to the mass enclosed, which means it will go radially outwards. That doesn't make sense because we know gravity is radially inward for a spherical shape (like earth)

Cory Alexander is in her third season as a member of the Charlotte 49ers women's soccer coaching staff. She joined the 49ers coaching staff after a successful playing career with the W-League's Charlotte Lady Eagles.
"Cory is our energizer," Charlotte coach John Cullen said. "She is a relentless young lady/coach. She is a hard worker and upbeat every day [which is] important on a day-to-day basis, especially when running a soccer program when you have that member of staff who can really keep everyone going, honest and motivated.
"With Cory being a former defensive player, as well, she takes great pride in how we defend so we give her a lot of responsibility with the defending group. Cory's strength is the day-to-day management of the players. She does a great job of balancing the role of coach and friend to the players. I think she does a great job keeping the players honest and motivated and keeping them accountable on and off the field."
Alexander joined the 49ers coaching staff after a four-year playing career (2005-08) as an outside back for the W-League's Charlotte Lady Eagles.
Since 2006, she has been traveling regularly to Brazil to play soccer. She played for the Santos Futebol Clube as well as futsal, which is indoor soccer in Brazil. In 2009, she helped start the Brazil Eagles which was mirrored after the Charlotte Eagles. She also taught English in Brazil.
The Los Angeles, California native enjoyed a stellar playing career at Biola University in La Mirada, California. Alexander, who was Biola's Defensive MVP three times, was a four-time All-Golden State Athletic Conference selection.
She is no stranger to coaching after serving two years on the coaching staff at California's Whittier Christian High School. She also coached at Charlotte Latin, served on the staff for the Charlotte Eagles summer camps for five years, and is currently coaching in her third season with her U-13 girls' team with FC Carolina Alliance. She is a part of the NC ODP coaching staff for two years and a head coach for the 2000 girls' team.
In 2005, she graduated from Biola with a degree in Business Marketing. She earned NAIA Scholar All-American honors during her collegiate career.
"It was incredible, this past year, to be part of a program with such a rich and successful history while at the same time being surrounded by, and working with, great people," Alexander said. "We are excited to welcome into our family 11 new faces to not only share in this tradition, but also to make a new imprint in Charlotte's history."

Top 10 Tips for Parents Who Have a Child with LD
3 of 11
Keep a Profile of What Your Child Does Well
This can be important for your child at school and on a personal level. Too many times in the school arena, we tend to focus on the areas in which a child needs to improve. A "Strengths Profile" can help teachers and parents remember areas in which the child excels and that can be used to build curriculum that is meaningful to the child. A "Strengths Profile" is also a handy tool parents can use to banish the times when a child is feeling frustrated, a failure, or unable to cope.

Right click "Save as…"
Proativa Team from Brazil won the Imagine Cup 2009 Interoperability Award(*) with their project ProLearning:
"ProLearning is designed to maximize the experience of distance learning. It's composed by an immersive virtual reality environment, where students exchange experience and study together. This environment makes easier the interaction between tutor and pupils, so teachers can give proper feedback to students. ProLearning also offers a social network application, stimulating socialization and interaction of students and providing education process' important aspects unavailable on distance learning environments, as the perception your pairs development and the ability of sharing your knowledge. Finally, ProLearning has the Mobile module, providing a personalized and automatically updated schedule for the student, indicating and alerting on proper time the activities to be done by the student on his distance learning courses. Optionally, the student is able to see the status of his friends in some particular activity, and realize a VoIP call to get some help. Templated SMS messages can also be sent in this module to friends and teachers."
The video was made by the team to present their project.
Congratulation to Proativa!
(*) The Interoperability Award is designed to recognize the software application that best leverages out-of-the-box Microsoft technologies and blends them with other technologies to connect people, data, or diverse systems in a new way. The ability to build technical bridges and blend technologies from different vendors, including free and open source software, has great value in the industry.

This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question.
Well, your hubby is probably chasing rep, or collecting medals.
Can I recommend that you set up a reward system at home to keep him interested in RL:
And not to mention badges for doing the dishes, taking out the garbage and playing with the kids.
And I'm sure that you can figure out how he can trade in all this rep for some bedroom time with you. But that's NSFW :)
Propose to do something "more fun" with him.
Write a BotNet to downvote all of his contributions so that he has no incentive. If you need help to do this try StackOverflow
If you think you have to be in charge of controlling someone else, you may want to do some enquiry into your own thinking.
Lead by example :-)
Also, voting to close (on stackoverflow).
I'm not sure if the OP meant this in jest however I'm updating my answer to be clearer on what I really think.
I'll speak about myself since I really can't know what's true for someone else.
When I find myself asking questions like "How do i stop x person from doing y" or "How can I get x person to think y thing about me", any of those kinds of thoughts, I know it's time to enquire into my own thoughts.
When I beleive the thought that anyone should be different than how they are right now I find that I treat them in a way that isn't the most loving I can be.
The lesson that I want to teach the people I love is that I love them unconditionally, that is, without any conditions. When I start acting asif they're not absolutely perfect as they are right now, that they need to change something (to make me happy), I know I'm living a lie.
What's real is that people are people, what's not real is how I imagine they "should" be and it's reality that I love, not an imaginary world of thoughts.
What it always comes down to for me is whether I'm loving myself without condition. I can project that love onto other people along with a host of other beliefs, values, thoughts, and I can act like it's them who needs to change. It's just that for me, when I'm being that way I know I'm not loving myself without condition.

Given a positive integer $n>1$ with prime factorization
$$n=\prod_{p_i \text{ prime}}p_i^{k_i}, \space i\ge1, \space k_i \in \mathbb N^*$$
how can I compute the number of factorizations of $n$, $\text F(n)$ (multiplications by $1$ are excluded) ?
- $5\times 24$ and $4\times 5\times 6$ are two different factorizations of $120$.
- The prime factorization of a number is of course one of its factorizations.
- $\text F(p) = 0$ for any prime number $p$.
If there is a no formula, an algorithm will be appreciated.

Twice in the past two weeks I have had the honor of sharing stories that highlight the true meaning of community.
First, I traveled to Perry, where classmates have rallied around 17-year-old Zach Linquist since his diagnosis with leukemia. They are selling t-shirts and bracelets. Some even are giving up what would be money earned through an entrepreneurship exercise to assist Zach and his family with medical expenses. Why? They simply say it's because he needs it more - and they know he would do the same for them. (They also tell me Zach has an off-beat sense of humor that keeps them laughing!)
This week, I visited Clay Center. There, seven-year-old Luke Hauserman has lost his hair to chemotherapy treatments for leukemia. His second grade classmates didn't want him to feel all alone in his fight, so the boys have shaved their heads so they, too, are bald. (Luke says he thought they all looked funny when he saw them!) The school also is holding fundraisers and the high school football team adopted Luke as their honorary captain for a game. (Luke says it was cool to be on the sidelines with the players - they even hit the back of his wheelchair once when they ran out of bounds - yikes!)
A potentially deadly illness can be very isolating for a person and their family. Even with the bright prognosis both of these young men have right now, it is still a scary time. It was inspiring to see, not only their positive attitudes, but also, the response of their communities. Luke's mom says she has never felt more caring and compassion than she does right now. It is a sense, she says, of being lifted by an entire community.
In this world where we spend so much time hearing the negative, it was nice to witness the positive feelings of communities coming together.

I have started playing MW3 recently and have completed 13 rounds in Resistance map. I have been using the Assault Riffle ACR 6.8. What kind of weapons I should use for survival mode where I can get more bang for my buck?
When I play survival, I tend to "live off the land" and take weapons off of dead enemy soldiers instead of buying weapons at the shop. In Resistance in particular, it's pretty easy to set up shop in the center house, like I explained here:
What is best sniper position on Resistance in Spec Ops: Survival mode?
Remember that you can also carry two primary weapons in Survival - so if enemies are using AK-47's and ammo for that is plentiful on the ground, you can use that gun alongside another AR that you've purchased or found in an earlier round. Between rounds you can go back and just buy ammo, or pick up upgrades for these weapons if you prefer them.
Having 2 ARs means that if you empty a clip and there's still a lot of guys to shoot, you can switch to your off-hand AR and continue firing faster than you could've reloaded.
I don't tend to like LMGs or SMGs, the LMGs take too long to reload, and the SMGs do pitiful damage against enemies in the later rounds. You might find them useful, depending on your strategy and preferences, however.
Not buying weapons means that you have more cash left over for other things, such as sentry guns, squads of AI helpers, and air support to deal with Juggernauts and other difficult situations.
Here is the weapon list and their rankings: Larger size
i have been trying to figure out the best guns for MW3 survival and from what i have learned the best gun to use is the MP7 and the MK46. MP7 can take down a regular juggernaut with less than one mag if you aim for the head. shooting anywhere else would take 2-4 mags. The MK46 can take down an armored juggernaut with only two mags. I got to wave 67 in seatown with a this set-up. Sleight of hand would also be very helpful.
I would have to say l86 lmg and any gun that the enemy uses. If they are using ak-47s pick one up as it saves time any money.
Air support:
Here's what I like to do:
What me and my partner do is buy everything as soon as we have enough money to get it. That means at wave 6 we are buying our first lmg and by wave 12 we have sleight of hand. The reason we do this is because with a lot of ammo it is easier to concentrate on getting rampages and kill streaks and also by buying all the expensive things first by the time we reach level 38 we have about 40-50k a piece (get rich or die tryin) and that allows for us to properly prepare for the harder rounds with predators, rioters, and air strikes without breaking the bank.
I have gotten to LvL 39-40 on Bakarra which is the hardest diffuclty by using the best combination that I have seen, along with other people I know that have gotten past lvl 65 using this combo. Use the L86 LMG, which reloads pretty damn fast for an lmg and allows you to have the ammo you need for the higher levels along with the power to chop to the helicopters if you manage to use your predators or whatever you use. Secondly purchase the sleight of hand perk if you're lvl 50 and a grip and a red dot sight instead of a holographic sight which will also increase your visuals for the game.
The second weapon you will need to save up for is the AA-12, it does run out of ammo fast but will take out a juggernaut in 2 clips (sleight of hand allows you to shoot off 12 rounds in about 2-3 seconds if that) up to about lvl 40 since that is as far as me and my buddys have gone to without dying for one stupid reason or another or running out of ammo due to poor planning. Buy a grip for this shotgun as it will increase your accurarcy when shooting the juggs. Use flashbangs and if you have a partner alternate.
Good tips to use through this is do not purchase the explosive turrents they will kill you more than help. Use C4, about 7-8 will kill a single jugg up to lvl 28 if I'm not mistaken so thats one less you have to deal with and 2 less if your partner kills with a predator and none if you then shoot your predator off and kill one. Also remember using shield squads doesnt help you kill people but it does give you time to prep after the round starts or during a road when you need to reload or get out of the Red vision stage from taking too much damage. I would advise that you and your partner set up claymores up the steps in Bakarra or in resistance (bakarra the 2 story next to the grenade, turret, armor pelican case.). This will allow you to see the jugg and blow up your C4 and your partner to shoot a predator off without being attacked by those damned C4 dogs.
I agree, on the earlier levels, just use whatever weapons the enemies are dropping, allowing you to build up a bit of a buffer of cash that you will need later on.
Enemies get progressively more hitpoints as the waves go on, so by around Wave 15+ you will need to carry at least one LMG to cut down all the troops they throw at you.
By Wave 35+, it's virtually very, very difficult to kill all the enemies without you running out of ammo, unless you carry two LMGs.
By Wave 50, I'm fairly certain it's impossible to proceed without two LMGs.
The buying everything when you have the money is easiest for helicopter and Juggernauts. When using LMGs, you don't have to move; you can throw frags, sit and shoot at his head or your partner can go to the back of him. Or you and your partner can take turns shooting his middle armor plate easily taking a Juggernaut out. You can get easy practice by doing underground - a helicopter comes at wave 6, then a Juggernaut at wave 10, 2 at wave 15,and 3 at wave 20 and so on.
