This is a simple guide for building and installing new Rhythmbox straight
from upstream using existing debian templates for RB.
Use at your own risk.
Initial setup
- It's suggested to build this using chrooted build system like pbuilder or sbuild. If you do, you don't need to install any other dependencies than devscripts package.
- Alternatively you can use debfoster. Run run it once and answer 'yes' (or no if you know what you're doing) asked questions. This way you set *default* state for installed packages and can easily uninstall all RB build dependencies after building. You can later "reset" debfoster using -n parameter after the whole buildprocess is complete and installed dependencies have been removed.
Configuring build environment
- Install required packages for building
Code:sudo aptitude install build-essential cdbs devscripts dh-make fakeroot
- Setup your local environment
Code:mkdir -p ~/packages/rhythmbox cd ~/packages/rhythmbox
Getting the sources
- We'll use debian's package as base package for the source. Add new source
reposirtory on /etc/apt/sources.list
Note!Code:deb-src http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian unstable main contrib non-free
- Fetch RB's source from debian repository. Don't use sudo while getting the source package!
Before doing this, make sure you're at the rhythmbox directory you created earlier.
Code:sudo apt-get update && apt-get source rhythmbox cd rhythmbox-0.9.5
Preparing the new package
- You must edit debian/control and debian/control.in files and replace libgnome-media-dev with gnome-media on Build-Depends: section,
Debian on Ubuntu seem to have difference regarding to package naming.
- Insert new changelog entry
Code:dch -i
- Insert your own comments about new version
Save file after modifying it (contents will actually be written on debian/changelog)Code:rhythmbox (0.9.5-1ubuntu1) dapper; urgency=low * debian/control, debian/control.in: - Changed libgnome-media-dev to gnome-media -- Firstname Lastname <email@example.com> Tue, 20 Jun 2006 22:11:35 +0300
- If you want to enable experimental ipod writing support, add this to debian/rules
Code:DEB_CONFIGURE_EXTRA_FLAGS += --enable-ipod-writing
Installing required build dependencies
- Run dpkg-checkbuilddeps and install all listed packages. Those are needed for building this package. For RB 0.9.5 build dependencies are
Code:sudo aptitude install libgnome2-dev libgtk2.0-dev libgnomeui-dev libgnomevfs2-dev docbook-xsl docbook-utils gnome-pkg-tools libxt-dev libdbus-glib-1-dev libnautilus-burn-dev libhal-dev libtotem-plparser-dev liblircclient-dev libsoup2.2-dev libavahi-client-dev libmusicbrainz4-dev libavahi-glib-dev libtool libgpod-dev libnotify-dev libglade2-dev libgstreamer0.10-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev zlib1g-dev libx11-dev libglib2.0-dev gtk-doc-tools libsexy-dev python-gtk2-dev python-dev
Building the package
- Build rhythmbox packages
Code:dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -us -uc
- Install new rhythbox
Code:sudo dpkg -i ../rhythmbox_0.9.5-0ubuntu1_i386.deb
Removing the build dependencies
- If you installed debfoster as suggested in the beginning, you can now clear
all build dependencies by running debfoster again and answering p (as purge) for
all questions regarding to applications and libraries installed on build process.
- Remove/comment debian source repository from/etc/apt/sources.list
I changed howto to use debian experimental repository instead, because
changelog contained some important build rules. There's also instructions
to apply launchpad integration pacthes if anyone wants to use the feature.
[edit 2]
- Added suggestion to build using pbuilder
- Changed to use debian unstable repository
- Removed confusing steps about applying launchpad integration patches

Has violence really played itself out?
Eventually, of course, she cracked.
Kids will do that to you.
And Max, who is 12, might have gone on blowing people away, sundering cities and otherwise unleashing a slaughterhouse of virtual bloodshed, except for one thing.
Max is from Newtown. And after Dec. 14, 2012, he had had enough.
After attending the funeral of his friend's brother, Daniel Barden, one of the victims of the slaughter at Sandy Hook Elementary, he was sick and tired of killing. Even virtual killing.
Max, a middle school student, began a movement called "Played Out," which urges kids to follow his example and throw their video games in the dump.
The Hartford Courant reported that Max's father has helped him place a refuse bin outside the Newtown Youth Academy sports center to collect all the video games kids want to jettison.
Let's hope Played Out creates mountains of refuse.
We're a species that likes answers. We like them clear and obvious and definitive. No reputable studies have shown a concrete link between the use of violent video games and the perpetration of violence. No definitive lines can be drawn between the consumption of violent movies and a predilection for brutality. Nor will any be drawn here between gun possession and lethal use of firearms.
But what is happening in our society, not just in Newtown, but every place scarred by butchery, hopelessness and grief, cannot be reduced to a single cause. Whatever is happening is part of this stew we have created in which violence is laced into our culture in a manner so pernicious and insidious that we hardly recognize it. Does it really take a 12-year-old sitting at the funeral of a grade schooler to show us what needs to be done?
Perhaps there's no relationship between violent video games, like the top-selling "Call of Duty," and violence. But at least one video game maker, Electronic Arts, linked the website of its violent video game to a website that promoted the manufacturers of the guns, knives and combat-style gear portrayed in the game, The New York Times reported. You, too, could get yourself a high-powered sniper rifle and high-capacity magazine just like those used in "Medal of Honor Warfighter."
Unsurprisingly, Electronic Arts disabled the links, saying it was shocked — shocked! — to find them there.
Elsewhere, in the violence-spewing culture, the Weinstein Company hastily canceled a premiere of Quentin Tarantino's violence-drenched "Django Unchained." Paramount's scuttled its premiere of Tom Cruise's new "action" film, "Jack Reacher."
The films weren't pulled. Heavens, no. Not with so much money on the line. They were merely quietly injected into our culture stream, another poison into a collective body that has nearly been inoculated to the effects of violence.
The New York Times has reported that Hollywood was quietly wringing its hands over the tragedy — not that it was ready to mend its ways. "The shooting has prompted soul searching of a more personal kind in the entertainment capital," the paper reported. "Hollywood's power lunches have been filled in recent days with conversations about hypocrisy, according to people in the industry: Many of those who are liberal leaning and support gun control also make their livings selling violent images."
Yes, we're all for causes — as long as they don't put a chink in our dividends.
But is Hollywood to blame? In a way, that's like blaming McDonald's for the obesity epidemic. Nobody's forcing those SUVs through the golden arches. There's an appetite and McDonald's satisfies it.
I fear that those of us who prayed for peace following Newtown, asked for it as if it were some kind of celestial rain that would shower benevolently upon us. But the faithful know that peace germinates from within. It flourishes when we turn away from crudeness and savagery and toward tenderness and serenity. It does not come unbidden.
Every time we hand over cold, hard currency for brutal, coarse indecency, we assent to a culture of violence.
I am reminded of the wise words of Rabbi Abraham Joshua Herschel, "Above all, the prophets remind us of the moral state of a people: Few are guilty, but all are responsible."

How often do merchants replenish their gold supply?
In Skyrim, there is a fence named Tonila in the Thieves' Guild. Unfortunately, she only has 1,000 gold at a time. This severely limits my ability to generate money, as I have probably 20,000 gold worth of stolen goods sitting in a chest right now that I can't sell.
So the question is, how long does it take for Tonila to get her gold back after you get all her gold? Is there a set period of time that you have to rest/wait, or do you have to go off and complete some quests, or what?
Also, if anyone has a recommendation for how to better go about generating money via selling (primarily stolen) goods to merchants, that would be more than welcome as well.

My understanding is that with severely hypothermic patients you want to keep them awake if possible. I'd heard moving a hypothermic patient is risky as you dont want to jostle them, some wilderness survival experts say to stay put if you're lost since SAR is likely looking for you. how important is the "not sleeping" advice and why?
I am not a doctor, so I can only repeat what I think I understood from lectures by those that do have medical training.
I'm pretty sure I remember Dr Murray Hamlett (I highly recommend attending one of his lectures, if he's still doing them. He is not only a leader and pioneer in cold weather medicine, but also a very good and engaging speaker.) saying to keep the patient awake. I don't remember exactly the reasons he might have given, but keeping the internal metablic activity as high as possible sounds like a advantage to me. Basically, we burn fewer calories, and therefore produce less heat, when asleep. It is also more difficult to assess a patient's state when they aren't fully concious.
Never allow them to sleep. Even if hypothermia is not that severe. I'm talking from a personal experience where two fellow trekkers died due this. The reason is when you go the sleep, your breathing slows down due to low heart rate. Our body is meant to behave so. This means the blood flow slows down. And with a mild/severe hypothermia, you are in a state where the vital organs might not end up with the required blood flow. Keeping that person warm and trying to improve the metabolic rate is the best solution when you don't have medical help at hand.
I would take two things into consideration, or rather mention two things that are in consideration:
American culture at least is squeamish about violating principle #1, enough so that someone who violates #1 to care for #2 will feel very unpleasant and perhaps guilty. But #2 should trump #1 if you have a choice between the two. It runs on the same principle as an intervention for an alcoholic: it is not in any remote sense pleasant for the person, and done right it is one of the most painful things you can experience (and the other people in the intervention experience, and hurt for, the person receiving the intervention), but it may be the most loving possible thing you can do.
I do not have credentials to offer medical advice for how safe it is to allow a hypothermic person to sleep. I personally would find it very unpleasant to force contrived activity to someone who is entirely drained and just wants to sleep, and may sleep forever. But if the best medical chances for survival are for preventing sleep, the #2 listed concern trumps the #1 concern, period. Feel guilty about it all you want, feel like you're torturing a poor, helpless bunny, but pursue the hypothermic person's medical best interest as far as you can.
How severe?
If he has passed through the shivering stage, you are probably going to lose him unless you can get an external source of heat.
If he's at the 'umbles' stage then food, hot drinks, and keep moving it possible is a better course of action.
If you have him warm enough that he has become lucid, then let him sleep.
Hypothermia beyond mild cases is hard to deal with in a remote situation. Prevention is far easier.

Working with OpenLayers 2.11, I'm desperately trying to change my feature style as the user selects it (fairly simple I agree!).
Indeed, It seems easy but I can't see where It fails, perhaps someone experienced with OpenLayers could enlighten me.
Below is my code :
function onFeatureSelect(event)
var feature = event.feature;
var styleWaypointSelect = new OpenLayers.StyleMap(
externalGraphic: 'img/map_marker.png',
graphicWidth: 16, graphicHeight: 26, graphicYOffset: -24,
title: 'selectedFeature'
var clonedFeature = waypointLayer.getFeatureById(feature.id);
clonedFeature.style = styleWaypointSelect;
waypointLayer.redraw(); /* refresh() I tried several things to refresh the layer but it doesn't seem to change anything at all*/
Gallien LABEYRIE
EDIT : I finally figured out that OpenLayers StyleMap class allows different properties, "default", "delete", "temporary", "select". (you can see this when you debug the style object in firebug)
I added the "select" style of my vector layer like this :
var styleWaypoint = new OpenLayers.StyleMap({
"default": new OpenLayers.Style({
externalGraphic: 'img/mobile_loc.png',
graphicWidth: 16, graphicHeight: 26, graphicYOffset: -24,
title: 'marker'
"select": new OpenLayers.Style({
externalGraphic: 'img/mobile_loc_select.png',
graphicWidth: 16, graphicHeight: 26, graphicYOffset: -24,
title: 'marker_select'

It should just export the columns that you have on the grid. So if you don't want a column to be exported, remove it/hide it.Mitchell Simoens @LikelyMitch

Suppose a manufacturer bottles small units of liquid and ships them via very large trucks.
If the transportation cost nothing, spherical bottles would minimize the packaging cost (isoperimetric inequality); if packaging cost nothing, cubic bottles (say) would minimize the transportation cost, because they would pack on the trucks with no wasted space.
How would the ideal container vary with the relative cost of packaging (measured as the surface area of one bottle) and transportation (measured by the packing density on an infinitely capacious truck)?
[My "applied" formulation notwithstanding, I mean this as a pure mathematics question, so please idealize and ignore any distracting side issues.]
A reasonable conjecture might seem that one gets the correct family of shapes by starting with a tight lattice packing of spheres and then over-inflating and rescaling the spheres until asymptotically they assume the form of Voronoi cells of a lattice packing. So one would get constant mean curvature surfaces up to the circular disks at the interfaces between adjacent spheres. Optimal or not, this would give lower bounds. But how to compute them?

The Top 19 Movie Blunders of All Time
#12. "Spain Snafu" (Gladiator)
Also in the film Gladiator, Maximus (Russell Crowe) is a Roman general who only longs to return to his home in Spain and work on his farm. The only problem: People in Spain don't work.
#11. "Sartorial Stumble" (Braveheart)
In Braveheart, the vast majority of the men are wearing skirts throughout the entire film, but this is never commented on by anyone.
#10. "Robot Oversight" (The Terminator)
In The Terminator, the Terminator (Arnold Schwarzenegger) is seen being destroyed in a hydraulic press. Yet in the creatively named sequel, Terminator 2, his character reappears 1) nude and 2) completely unharmed. This is 1a) disturbing, 1b) unnecessary and 2) never explained.
#9. "Copy Error" (Capote)
In Capote, Truman Capote (Phillip Seymour Hoffman) travels to a small town to solve a mysterious murder. The problem? This is the exact same plot as every episode of Scooby-Doo.
#8. "Dance Delusion" (Pulp Fiction)
In Pulp Fiction, Vincent Vega (John Travolta) is seen easily performing a dance called the Batusi, which is in reality an incredibly strenuous dance only capable of being performed by people with years of martial arts training and Adam West.
#7.) "Inaccurate Italians" (Goodfellas)
The movie Goodfellas contains many inaccurate depictions of Italian-Americans, including a scene where one holds down a job for several months.

eval-ing json
I find myself sending back huge strings of grid properties from my serverside framework, like
new RUtil.prado.DataList('Admin:MusicManager:ArtistViewer:AlbumList', {"AllowSorting":false,"ShowHeader":true,"HeaderCssClass":"","ShowFooter":false,"ShowSearch":false,"TableCssClass":"recordset ygrid-mso","ItemCssClass":"","SelectedItemCssClass":"", "AlternatingItemCssClass":"","Layout":"TABLE","tagName":"TABLE","AutoLoad":false,"UseDraggable":"","Group":"","UseDroppable":"","DropGroup":"","OnClick":"","Columns":[{"Class":"RTemplateColumn","TagType":"","TagName":"","Width":"","HeaderText":"","ItemTemplate":"\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t[img]{0}\[/img]"},{"Class":"RTemplateColumn","TagType":"","TagName":"","Width":"","HeaderText":"","ItemTemplate":"\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t
{1}

{2}
"}],"js":"\t\t\/***\r\n\t\t *\r\n\t\t * var list = dh.append(this.id + ':recordset', {\r\n \t\t\ttag: this.param.TagName, cls: this.param.TableCssClass, children: [\r\n\t\t {tag: 'li', id: 'item0', html: 'List Item 0'},\r\n\t\t {tag: 'li', id: 'item1', html: 'List Item 1'},\r\n\t\t {tag: 'li', id: 'item2', html: 'List Item 2'},\r\n\t\t {tag: 'li', id: 'item3', html: 'List Item 3'},\r\n\t\t {tag: 'li', id: 'item4', html: 'List Item 4'}\r\n ]\r\n});\r\n\r\n\t\tvar list = dh.append(this.id + ':recordset', {tag: this.param.TagName, cls: this.param.TableCssClass});\r\n\r\n\t\t var dh = YAHOO.ext.DomHelper;\r\n\t\t*\/\r\n\t\talert('motherer');\r\n"});
is there anything wrong with this?
my partner told me of talk on the yui forums of people abusing eval(json);
Dave says:
I was reading YUI on JSON, a little there explained how you eval JSON and that turns it into objects etc.. said it was probably the only acceptable use of eval.. in other words.. eval is one of those really abused things... in javascript...
anything wrong with eval-ing YAHOO.ext.grid.Grid, etc / YAHOO.ext.DomHelper code?
19 Oct 2006 3:16 AM #2
In the site I'm working, I use eval a lot to cut down on bandwidth used. I retrieve (using Jack's great updatemanager) javascript from the server and run an eval on it using a seperate renderer I built just for this purpose and haven't had any problems so far.
Here's an example of a renderer I'm using in one portion of my site.
YAHOO.whasit.MODULE.prototype.renderer = { render: function(el, o) { try { eval(o.responseText); } catch(err) { el.update(err + ": " + o.responseText); } } }
catch(err) { el.update(o.responseText); }
19 Oct 2006 6:04 AM #3
The reason to not send and eval the JS is for caching reasons primarily. If you send the grid creation code and everything down the pipe with the data, then every load has to reload the UI. It's cheaper to just send the data.
What you can do is send "script" tags and have appended to the document referencing external predefined js files so your UI continues to be cached. Is that an option?
19 Oct 2006 6:31 AM #4
I certainly wouldn't create a new grid after each ajax request, that'd be insane.
yes, I'm currently rendering script frags on the first postback, which contain a long string of properties related to the list that needs to be rendered.
after a few hours' sleep, I think I'll just send back the DomHelper templates, rather than including the actual js to process the templates, as well.
after all, wouldn't it take make *more* bandwidth to express the data as:
{tag: 'li', id: 'item0', html: 'List Item 0'}, {tag: 'li', id: 'item1', html: 'List Item 1'}, {tag: 'li', id: 'item2', html: 'List Item 2'}, {tag: 'li', id: 'item3', html: 'List Item 3'}, {tag: 'li', id: 'item4', html: 'List Item 4'}

don't forget, for the case of grids, there is a JSONdatamodel
19 Oct 2006 6:44 AM #6
That's not a bad idea. You could also define a renderer for the element's UpdateManager (UM) that uses a template and then just process the JSON with the template.
var Renderer = new function(){ var template = Yahoo.ext.DomHelper.createTemplate(...); // template with named parameters this.render = function(el, response){ var obj = eval('('+response.responseText+')'); // JSON data template.overwrite(el.dom, obj); } }(); getEl('foo').getUpdateManager().setRenderer(Renderer);

yup, I use my own version of JSONDataModel, almost exclusively (so far).

There are either too many possible answers, or good answers would be too long for this format. Please add details to narrow the answer set or to isolate an issue that can be answered in a few paragraphs.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
I'd say forget the Linux distro and think of the software first, specifically nginx instead of the standard Apache.
Some comparisons:
The distro shouldn't make the difference so much as the experience of the sysadmin doing the project and configuration of the server.
By experience I mean that each distribution of Linux has it's own "philosophy"...Ubuntu has it's popular tools for updating (you're running Ubuntu? click system->administration->update manager...running Debian? Use apt-get..., etc.) that administrators become kind of keyed in to work with by reflex. If you're extensively experienced in a particular distribution there's no reason not to use it, really. Yes, they usually can have cross-type tools or are based off each other's stuff (Ubuntu using Alien to convert RPM's or using apt-get from the command line like Debian) but in general I've found it's more helpful not to fight the "$SPECIFICDISTRO Way" when it comes to administrating the particular system.
If you're kind of distro-agnostic, use distrowatch to check some statistics on popular usage and see what you think; one nice thing about popular distros is that it increases the chance you'll find help when you run into a speed bump as well as have an active community from which to gain confidence that the distro won't stagnate with updates.
If this is a company thing with actual money behind the project (I'm used to having a lot of side projects that are more like "can it be done" with no money rather than having an actual budget...) you may want to look at a company-backed distro with a support contract; a lot of businesses like having someone to blame if the system goes wonky. Red Hat is very big in this area, but you can also purchase Ubuntu support through Canonical, and any sale of support contracts to a Linux vendor supports the cause :-)
Last if this is also an actual company project you can try setting up some test servers or virtual machines and install a few different distros and load test your configuration. More often than not speed is a variable of your web server design (distributing your database, your load balancer, code execution path, caching server(s), etc.) than your distribution (a few tweaks to the compiler,...really that's the only thing I can think of offhand for differences in distro is compiled options of the packages). You can dig really deep on issues like hardware (memory? Processor? load balancing nics?) and stack performance while ignoring that the biggest variable is just having a well designed web application; the only way to really find out is to test your installation on a small testbed.
Another thing to consider is security (openBSD is very fast and capable while having an excellent security record), which can lead to increased cost in downtime if not thought through. Fastest server in the world doesn't buy much if you have it hacked.
Otherwise, the question is kind of vague because there's often improvements with each release of each distro that changes things, including some performance indicators. Again, though, distro changes rarely are as big a factor as application design. I mean...Gentoo always had a reputation for being fast since t was custom compiled, but I haven't heard anything about Gentoo in quite awhile, despite having a very devoted fanbase...and there are plenty of websites running happily on Ubuntu, Slack and Debian and Red Hat.
Good luck!
There's not going to be much of a difference between the various distros in a typical environment. I've had good luck with:
Of the two, I favor Debian. It's easy to upgrade packages, and there are typically sane defaults.
That said, there's another level of optimization that is unrealistic for most sites. Facebook, for example, modified the Linux kernel to improve performance. But theirs was a very unique situation.
In general, your application performance and architecture + your server stack (apache/nginx, etc.) is going to be much more important than what distro you choose.
This is a very vague question but I assume by "high performance" you mean heavy traffic. The distro will have very little to do with that really, it's more important which technology stack you choose.
That said, if you are building enterprise level applications, you might want to have some form of assurance and quality control by a vendor, so I'd go for either RedHat (CentOS if it has to be low-cost) or SuSE. Many servers are officially certified to run these two distros.
http://serverfault.com/ is probably more appropriate place for your question. That said, the distribution has little effect on performance. The differences are more in ease of use and such things - the performance is determined by the web server (Apache?) settings, choice of other components (database etc.) and of course, hardware.
You could lookup DistroWatch for references (OpenSUSE?).
Same as: Is there a preferred flavor of linux for hosting web applications?
The platform you should pick is the one that your admin is the most familiar/comfortable with. Speed mostly depends on design and the underlying hardware, system optimizations can be applied to all the Linux's the same, so the only thing that's left to make a difference is gcc/glibc versions, which are gonna account for a percent or two at max. Not worth it, just go with what you know best.

Senate Approves Bill on Sandy Aid
WASHINGTON—A $50.5 billion aid package to help Northeastern states rebuild after superstorm Sandy won Senate approval Monday evening, clearing the last major congressional hurdle before heading to the president, who said he would sign it.
Lawmakers from the Northeast praised the legislation, calling it much-needed help for a region struggling to recover from the devastating October storm. The funds will go to a range of projects, including rebuilding housing and mass transit, protecting against future floods and helping businesses recoup some storm-related losses.
Combined with $9.7 billion in funding for the National Flood Insurance Program passed earlier this month, the new bill brings the total federal cost for Sandy to more than $60 billion so far—larger than the annual appropriations for some cabinet-level agencies.
The Senate approved the bill 62-36, with nine Republicans joining 53 Democrats in voting yes. It needed 60 votes to pass.
"Ninety-one days ago, Sandy struck a body blow against New York state and New Jersey. And today we've finally struck back," said Sen. Charles Schumer (D., N.Y.). "The passage of this bill will mean money for homeowners who've lost everything and need to rebuild, small businesses whose doors are still closed but must reopen, and protections for our coastlines and vital infrastructures to make sure that next time a storm strikes, we're not hit that bad."
President Barack Obama said: "I commend Congress for giving families and businesses the help they deserve, and I will sign this bill into law as soon as it hits my desk."
Monday's vote marked the end of a long road through the halls of the Capitol. After the White House submitted the funding request to Congress more than a month after the storm, the legislation was delayed by squabbling over the fiscal cliff, opposition from House Republicans, the presidential inauguration and negotiations over overhauls to Senate rules.
Passage was nearly delayed again Monday by a winter storm in the Northeast, leaving aides worried that not enough senators would be able to travel to Washington in time for the vote.
On the Senate floor, supporters beat back an amendment offered by Sen. Mike Lee (R., Utah) that would have offset the cost of the bill by trimming other discretionary spending over the next nine years. Mr. Lee said that he appreciated the need for federal spending in response to Sandy, but that large federal deficits made it necessary to cut spending to pay for it.
"We have to stop and consider the fact that we are more than $16 trillion in debt and that we're adding to that debt at a rate of more than $1 trillion a year," Mr. Lee said.
But Democrats said the amendment would force indiscriminate cuts to important programs that have already seen their appropriations reduced. They also said it would be a break from more than two decades of precedent, which saw three dozen disaster-aid bills passed without offsets. The amendment failed by a vote of 35 for and 62 against.

Greyhounds eager to make their home turf debut
As the Naugatuck High football team prepares for tonight's much anticipated home opener against Wolcott at new athletic complex and synthetic turf at Veterans Field, Greyhounds coach Craig Bruno sounded like a little kid in a candy store.
"We're excited being on a brand new field with a beautiful landscape," Bruno said.
Game time is 7. Prior to the game, at around 6:45 p.m., there will be a ceremony to honor the late Ed Mariano, according to Naugatuck athletic director Tom Pompei.
Mariano, a three-sport standout at Naugatuck and former coach and administrator in the city's schools, passed away last month at the age of 88.
Members of his family will be present at the ceremony.
"I think the new field is great for the school, our team and the community," said Bruno. "We're very appreciative of the opportunity to open the field. It looks and feels great. I think the atmosphere will be awesome."
But Bruno doesn't want the atmosphere to be a distraction, stressing to his players to just play hard, no different than what he told his players on the first day of practice on Aug. 19 at Hop Brook School, where the Greyhounds have practiced until this past Monday.
"It has to be business as usual," said Bruno. "We'e going at hard all week. We know the importance of the game and know the quality of the team Wolcott has. We need to go hard. Practice is practice and it shouldn't change too much just because we are on a nice field. We were on a makeshift practice field and we played pretty well in Week 1 (versus Crosby). We enjoy practice wherever they allow us to play. We're not making any excuses now nor will we ever."
Wolcott is 1-0 after topping Sacred Heart, 62-6, in Week 1 while the Greyhounds beat Crosby, 39-8.

Aptos, CA (Santa Cruz County - California - US).
Hi all,
I'm considering building an outdoor shed primarily for a multi-purpose home office. I'd like to know to what codes I'll come up against but I'm not sure who to ask (without paying a lot of money for a hypothetical question).
I've heard (although I can't confirm) that some regional codes allow for sheds to be built with electricity as long as there is no insulation, closed walls, and/or running water/plumbing. I'd like to know if that's a possibility in my area.
Can someone point me in the right direction here?

JUNCTION CITY, Kan. (WIBW) -- Junction City police continue their search for a brazen burglar who has been breaking into homes in the middle of the night and stealing things as residents sleep nearby.
The Junction City Police Department has released surveillance footage capturing the suspect making his way into a victim's kitchen and grabbing several items before he spots the camera.
Officials say the suspect is responsible for a string of burglaries over the past month across Junction City, entering homes through unsecured windows and doors and in one case, a doggy door.
The suspect also attempted to pry the front door open in one case and fled when the alarm was activated. In another case, he was frightened off by a resident who saw the man in the backyard of their in the home in the early morning hours with a flashlight. The burglar is described as a male of unknown race wearing a baseball cap, wearing a light colored shirt, and pants and gloves. He appears to have a several day growth of facial hair and has with him a flashlight.
"We've had several residences broke into. In some cases, the suspect has been successful and in other cases he was not. The suspect has been scared off by some alarm systems. He makes entry into the houses through unlocked windows or doors going around into the house and stealing mostly cash. We did have one case where he did crawl through a doggy door and made entry into a house. He's made entry between the hours of midnight and three AM. We did have one lady actually see a person in her back yard with a flashlight and she called us. When he observed her, he did run away and that was about two o'clock in the morning," explained Sergeant Trish Giordano, a detective with the Junction City Police Department.
A majority of the break-ins have occurred in the southwest portion of Junction City, south of 8th Street and west of Washington Street. Police reported burglaries on West Spruce Street and West Chestnut Street and further north and west on Oakridge Drive and Country Club Lane.
Police are very concerned about the activities of this man and his method of operation of entering occupied homes in the middle of the night. Citizens are urged to secure all their home's doors and windows as well as their cars and are asked to call 911 if any suspicious activity is observed in their neighborhood.
"We are very worried about what might happen if the resident woke up or confronted this subject and we definitely want to get him off the street as soon as possible. Citizens should definitely report any suspicious activity no matter how minor it is. We definitely want to come out there as soon as the incident occurs. Please call us with any descriptions of vehicles, clothing description, if you can get a tag number if there's somebody driving away, feel free to call us right away. Call 911," said Giordano.
She said police cannot rule out the possibility that the suspect could be armed.
"When people are confronted, they'll do anything they can to try to get away so the best thing for people to do is to call us and be a good witness and get as much information as possible," she added.
If you have any information on the suspect or his identity, call Detective Sergeant Trish Giordano at 785-762-5912 or Crime Stoppers at 785-762-TIPS. You may remain anonymous and may be eligible for a reward of up to $1000.

I make fruit smoothies often, and started off adding sugar. I'm looking for a more "natural" sweetener though. I know I can use honey, but it adds a distinct taste that I'd like to avoid. I've tried using dates as well, and it's a workable alternative, but also changes the taste slightly (and makes the smoothie "stickier"). What are other natural sweeteners to try, preferably that don't make a big difference to taste?
You could try agave nectar -- but I'm not sure if it will be that much of an improvement over honey. A tiny pinch of salt might also help make the smoothie taste sweeter.
Usually though, if I want my smoothies to be sweeter I just add more juice or fruit (e.g. ripe berries, peaches etc).
Maple syrup is great in smoothies! You only need maybe a tablespoon-full or so and at that amount the taste isn't overpowering or anything.
The very act of sweetening it will change the taste. That's really the point.
However, if you like the taste of the smoothie sweetened with cane sugar, but are looking to ditch the cane sugar, there are three things you can try:
Dextrose is basically glucose, rather than the fructose-glucose molecule of cane sugar. It isn't as sweet as cane sugar, but it won't alter the taste of your smoothie in any other way.
Stevia is quite different. Gram-for-gram, stevia is much sweeter than cane sugar. It also has a very slight aftertaste for some people, but nowhere near as pronounced as with something like aspartame. There is also suggestions your body doesn't even process it as sugar.
One other trick that I'm sure you won't have thought of is to add a little dairy cream. However, this only really works if you've cut right back on your fructose intake already (cane sugar and HFCS). The reason it works is because your taste has, by then, been resensitised to genuinely natural sweetness.
frozen apple juice concentrate works well with a lot of flavors. Thawed keeps at least a week in the fridge.
Using up the last of a jam jar's sticky residue by shaking some juice/milk around, sweetens a smoothy with -yes, sugar- a bit extra flavor.
If you want your smoothie sweeter, just add a half a banana.
When you have a bunch of bananas go overripe, peel them, cut them into pieces, put them in a freezer bag and freeze them -- then use them in your smoothies. When bananas go black, they get very sweet and are ideal for things like smoothies (or banana bread), where texture doesn't matter, but the sweetness is desired.
Sweet potatoes add sweetness and creaminess quickly- use sparingly!

A little / lot of help
Im 38 Phys Ed teacher with a long history of gym work bodybuilding, powerlifts, bodyweight stuff.
I got interested about 4 years ago through Crossfit initially in training in weightlifting. Have done a couple of coaching courses with governing bodies etc. I have Greg's book, but I have yet to find a program that helps me get where I want.
Im 82kg
Deadlift 175kg
Squat (powerlift style) 140kg
Front Squat 100kg
Overhead Squat 55kg
Bench (cant anymore, mispent youth trying to get big)
Clean and Jerk (an embarrassing 90kg)
Snatch (an even more embarrassing 55kg)
If I follow a strict weightlifting program like the beginner or intermediate program, I find my squat goes down with the percentages used as does my deadlift which is generally not in the programs, and the other lifts dont go up by much at all. I end up feeling weaker and demotivated and go back to heavy squat, heavy deadlift, one clean day , one snatch day and a complex day. Add some rowing, push ups chin ups and battling ropes to that and thats pretty much what I revert to.
I want to change that.
Basically I am looking for a program that
1.I can still get strong in Squat and Deadlift (I have an addiction to these to lifts but if they have to go, they have to go)
2.Improve my C&J and Snatch
3.Increase Front Squat, OHS, Snatch Balance, push press / push jerk etc
4.Still find time to do the odd short 10 minute metcon or some rowing etc maybe twice per week.
Probably asking a lot I know!
It is putting it all together over a mon-fri period. I cant do weekends in the gym. But I have from 630am - 8am Mon-Fri window.
I have a full (school) gym at my disposal. Bars, Bumpers, bands, chains, chin up bars, c2 rowers, plyo boxes etc.
I appreciate any help guys, thank you.

I think we would all agree that you never have to get away from squatting -- ever. However, the deadlift position in comparison to both the snatch and clean positions are remarkably different. If anything, that would probably be the one to go, but it doesn't mean that you can't do a clean-style deadlift.
You have to keep in mind that a published training plan is just a rough draft for the individual lifter that picks it up. Time and other constraints/external factors play a big deal, especially when you're trying to finish a planned program for the day -- the worst thing to have happen is to feel rushed, so you might have to cut some things out or replace them with what you feel you want to work on. That's not to say that you're stubborn and you think you know more, but you have to be willing to alter some of what's said. For instance, I've followed a couple of programs off of
Idaho Weightlifting
(link is in the actual name), where they boast a couple of Calpian, USOTC, and other great programs written by some great coaches. I noticed that I need to squat heavier more often and that my legs were able to handle the stress, so I included more heavy days. To me, it's that simple.
To go a little further, I found this to work for me:
Day 1:
- Snatch (full, variant, or complex to a heavy single, then 80% x 3 x 2)
- Deficit snatch pulls (heavy triples ... I do all my pulls, NOT the classic lift, at a deficit -- don't know if it's good or not, but it's helped
, which is my point to you)
- Press (heavy triple, 80% x 3 x 2)
- Back Squat (heaviest triple, then 80% x 3 x 2)
- Good Morning (heaviest x 5)
Day 2:
- Clean and Jerk (full, variant, or complex)
- Deficit clean pulls
- Front Squat (same as back squat)
- RDLs (heavy triple x 3)
Day 3:
- Deficit snatch pull (you may want to do snatch deadlifts here)
- Deficit clean pull (you may want to do clean deadlifts here)
- Incline Bench Press (realized I need to improve shoulder girdle health)
- Back Squat
- Good Morning
Day 4:
- Snatch (heavy single)
- Clean and Jerk (heavy single)
- Front Squat
- RDLs
That's four out of seven days. For two of those "off" days, I use them for active recovery, whether they be lighter squatting, just work with the barbell, mobility, sprinting, etc. There's one day I have strictly for complete rest. This is what I can do based off my other requirements (like that whole job thing).
To make a long reply even longer, my point to you is that you're going to have to just use trial and error. This is my experience and I hope it's a valid response to your question. I've realized that I benefit more doing all the things I just put down at their corresponding volume. I also have roughly an hour and a half to work out and this right here keeps me busy all the way through.
Main thing: use the programs as a shell, tailor it to your needs and weaknesses, always squat, and be awesome!
I hope this helped you. I would hate for you to read this and not get anything out of it.

Dear God, please help me lift heavy and be awesome. Thanks. Amen.

Your squats and deadlifts may very well go down switching to a weightlifting program.
Because your reps that would be spent doing squats and deadlifts are now going to snatches and cleans.
My numbers: 120kg Snatch, 150kg Clean/Jerk, 200kg Squat, 170kg Front Squat (hopefully 180kg when I test next week!)
For myself, the principal I follow is I focus on only a few things at a time. One cycle is meant to be strength, during this time, my snatch and clean/jerk rarely see increases because my technique takes a bit of a hit but it provides a stronger foundation when its time to work on technique.
When I go to work on technique, my snatch and clean/jerk go up but squats stay the same.
So what I am trying to say is you cannot do everything at once!...unless you are on "magic medicine."
If you want to improve snatch and clean/jerks, do these exercises. Personally, I don't believe in 1 rep max's for beginners. Pick a weight that is challenging, but you can hit consistently for triples and do it for 3-5 sets. At those numbers, there is no need to get complicated with the programming. Just do 3-5 sets of 3 a few times a week with each exercise and your numbers will go up.
Throw in pulls alternating with the exercise you do, so something very basic:
Snatch - 3-5 sets of 3 (this doesn't include warm up weights which you want to hit with consistent technique)
Clean Pull - 3-5 sets of 3 (relatively heavy weight, but you should be able to do the light quickly, and consistently without sacrificing form)
Push Press - 3-5 sets of 3-5 (you may see a pattern here)
next day:
Cleans - 3-5 sets of 3
Jerks (or just do clean and jerks 3-5 sets of 2+2)
Snatch Deadlift 3-5 sets of 3
Throw in whatever extra stuff you want
Third Day:
Pretty much first day over again
Fourth Day:
Pretty much second day over again except with Clean Deadlifts instead of pulls
Pretty much, I would suggest keep it simple and your numbers will go up. Chances are because of your age, doing 3 sets is going to more beneficial than 5 sets because recovery won't be as quick; do what you can handle.
As a beginner, you will find gains with improving technique. Your squat/deadlift numbers may go down while focusing on technique; however, you have to understand it is a back and forth game between strength and speed/technique. Don't be discouraged when one lift goes down because chances are another one is going up.
At the end of the day though, you have to experiment and see what works-unfortunately weightlifting means sometimes doing things that feel a little monotonousness but understand that there is a bigger pay off when it comes time to max out!

Thank you both for replying in detail.
I guess I pretty much guessed that its impossible to do it all between powerlifting style lifts and weightlifting.
I am going to give it another go of sticking to a hybrid of your two suggestions. Switching from a powerlifting squat to a weightlifting one has seen my numbers go down a bit anyway and I am willing to sacrifice deadlift numbers to see snatch and c&j go up!
Can I ask on a triple for example, I execute 1 rep, and with little or no break at all go for a second and third? Sorry if thats a stupid question.
Also will OHS or Snatch Balance be of most benefit if I am pushed for time.

That is what I mean by triple.
Overhead squats and snatch balances have their uses, but they won't substitute for the actual lift.
OHS are good to strengthen your muscle groups used in recovery for the snatch, and snatch balance is good to reinforce technique (I had an issue of diving under the bar which put the load on my shoulders so I did these to work on keeping chest up and get a feel for the position I wanted to land in after the pull).
The issue with just doing these exercises though is that usually people lack the technique to be able to put themselves in a position where all they have to worry about is recovering (standing up) with the lift. You may be able to do heavy snatch balances, but if the bar is always out front or behind as a result of the pull, you will probably miss the lift.
If you don't have time, cut down the reps you do, but if you want to seen gains, you will have to do the actual lifts with a consistent effort. I personally love supplementary exercises, but you can't get the timing down in the lifts if you don't put everything together on a consistent basis.

Keep it simple......
Some of my best gains have come from some of the simplest programs...
I'm 47 now and lft 4xweek. Olifts on mon-thur and squat/press on tue-fri
"back in the day" in my mid 30's when I was snatching 245lb and C+J 315 my "magic program" was this:
Snatch - 1's to max for day
Bench - 3's one week, 5's the next to top set
C+J - same as sn
Front Squat - same as bench but 3's / 2's
Snatch - 4x2 -faster ligther double.....not a max 2
Clean + Push Press - 3x5 one week/4x3 the next
C+J - 4x2
Clean + Front Squat (one clean followed by three fr sq's)
Got to my all time bests maxes in front squat (385), snatch (245) C+J (315)
Fast forward to 42 years old, doing the olifts 2-3xweek with every other week doing deadlifts, ( DL -5-6 singles working up in wt then one heavy set of 5, usually to 405). Also started low bar squatting. Did this for awhile then got on another "magic program"
Mon-thur - singles to max
At the gym with my wife, would follow her around doing some DB bench then some rows, maybe some lat pulldowns etc BUT I always back squatted heavy at the end for sets of 3-5 reps....
Go to texas state meet in 2008 and sn 102k and C+J 141 which was a lifetime PR...
Don't make this too complicated, I think working the olifts a couple times a week then working on the strength stuff 2xweek has been the best thing for me to keep a balance of both. I think now even more than ever at 47 I can do two good heavy days of the olifts but anymore than that and I'm beat up and it hurts my strength days or any other olifting days.....
I'm a high school strength coach and teach PE also during the day so like you have the wtroom right here mon-fri......

Thanks John, that actually looks way more manageable. I found that any more than two days of heavy Olympic lifts left me feeling to tired for any other lifting. I was running a BJJ school on top of high school teaching and working with a rugby team too but even having retired from bjj I still found they left me shattered. So even a lightish day in the programme became too much and everything suffered as a result.
When you say 2 days of Oly lifting and 2 days strength work, what would those two days look like. I dont bench anymore, but love squats, DLs, Pull ups, push ups etc
I want to work simple, heavy and most of all enjoy it.
I started cleans again this morning, I think my hips dont start low enough, but then if I lower them, my back rounds and/or shoulder begin behind the bar. Ill take any criticism...thick skinned!

I think your cleans look alright, your catching the bar way too low on your shoulders and your elbows are down close to your legs when you hit the bottom from what I can see on the last couple. Get the bar right up by your neck with your elbows as high as you can get them, bad things happen to the wrists when you bounce a elbow off your leg and we don't heal as quickly....
My program is pretty simple, I'm training with a former FB player of ours who was at a big 12 school and is transferring to another school so I'm doing a little more than I normally do but this is our basic workout right now:
Chinups 3xas many as we can get
Back Squat
Bench Press
Glute Ham 4x5 with 25-30lb DB on chest
Dips 2x10
Clean Rows (pendlay rows) 3x5
Front Squat
Incline Press
Glute Ham 4x5
Dips 2x10
on the olifts I alternate sets each week so something like this:
wk #1 sets of 2 to top set
Wk#2 sets of 3
Wk#3 sets of 2
wk#4 sets of 1
Work up to a top set each time, try again if we miss and there is power still there, if we are out of gas we take a break for a few minutes then go to cleans/C+J. The rows or chins are for three sets at the end and not the same intensity, just get them done with good form...
Presses I have us alternate weeks or working up to a top set of 5 one week with a top set of 3 the next week...
Squats are with three top work sets.
Back squats - we do sets of 2 up to a heavy weight then do 3x5 with the heaviest we can
Front squats - work up in sets of 2 then do 3x3 with heaviest weight we can.
Once we get all three work sets we move up 5-10 lbs the next week....
I haven't benched or inclined in years but I know he needs the upper body work for FB so I do them with him but stop WAY short of anything heavy, maybe go to 185lb for sets of 5 while he keeps going up....
I bust my butt on the olifts and squats though and go heavy as I can...

John thanks for all that information, really appreciate it. Elbows are low from tight lats and anterior delts and pecs I think (benching always seemed like a good idea when I was 18!), need to keep foam rolling, stretching and front squatting.
Thanks very much for your input.

No problem, glad to help...
On the cleans-I tell this to my kids all the time:
Find a spot on the wall in front of you a little above your head (we have a yellow stripe painted around the room that works well), and keep looking at that spot till you stand up.
this helps you keep your:
Head up
Elbows up
Chest up
Part of it may be what you said too but I bet if you really concentrate on keeping your chest UP and push those elbows up you'll feel more solid...

Walking Papers is a blues-rock band formed by Jeff Angell and Barrett Martin, two long-serving veterans of the Seattle music scene. Jeff previously sang and played guitar for the bands Post Stardom Depression and The Missionary Position, and Barrett, a drummer and multi-instrumentalist, played for grunge pioneers Skin Yard and Screaming Trees, as well as the super groups Mad Season and Tuatara.
The band played its first Seattle shows initially as a duo with Jeff on guitar and Barrett on drums, but soon added Duff McKagan on bass to make their official debut as a trio on July 22nd, 2012. Benjamin Anderson brought his keyboard talents from the studio to the live stage, evolving the band into a quartet. Pearl Jam and Mad Season guitarist Mike McCready has been known to make guest appearances on stage as the lead guitar player.
Walking Papers self-titled debut album features a stellar cast of musicians who have each added their own musical voices to the sound: Vocals and Guitar come from Jeff; Drums, Vibraphone and Backing Vocals from Barrett; Electric Bass from Duff McKagan; two blistering guitar solos from Mike McCready; elegant keyboards from Benjamin Anderson, and soulful horn arrangements from Dave Carter (Trumpet), Dan Spalding (Baritone Sax), and Ed Ulman (Trombone). The album was recorded by Catherine Ferrante at Avast Studios in Seattle, and mixed by Jack Endino at Soundhouse in Seattle. Album mastering was done by Chris Hanzsek at Hanzsek Audio.
Walking Papers show that a great song can be conveyed with thundering drums, rumbling bass, and a howling guitar just as easily as it can with percolating marimbas and shimmering vibraphone. The songs on this album can stand alone as individual stories, but taken together as a whole, they convey a much larger narrative with tales of wandering souls, the collisions of will, and the dark beauty of the American heart.
Album Title: Walking Papers
Catalog Number: WP001
Label: Sunyata Records/Boredom Killing Business, 2012
Produced by Jeff Angell & Barrett Martin
Mixed by Jack Endino at Soundhouse, Seattle, WA

Forecasters with the National Hurricane Center are monitoring two systems in the Atlantic, one of which could later pose a threat to the eastern coast of the United States.
As of 4am Central Time Tuesday Morning, Tropical Storm Sandy was about 350 miles to the south/southwest of Kingston, Jamaica.
After being stationary for a time, Sandy has begun to move north. It currently has sustained winds of 45 miles per hour. It is expected to strengthen.
A Hurricane Watch is in effect for Jamaica, as well as a Tropical Storm Warning. A Tropical Storm Watch is in effect for Haiti. It is currently expected to be a Hurricane tomorrow.
Beyond the immediate effects in the Caribbean, some computer models indicate that Sandy could affect the east coast, although specifics are not available at this time.
Meanwhile, Tropical Depression 19 is likely to become Tony later today. It's currently over 800 miles to the northeast of the Leeward Islands. Unlike Sandy, TD 19 is expected to curve back out to sea.

Hey Dustfighter -
Would you be able to provide the archive of your project for us to look into? You can send it privately to architect.feedback at sencha.com. Please include a link to this thread.
Thanks,Aaron Conran

I found the problem...I think
Just before I saved the project the last time I added a new view as a window.
In that view (searchForm) I put a loader with an url.
And now when I removed that code from the file metadata/view/searchForm
I could start the project in Architect again.
This is the code that I removed from userConfig:
"loader": [
" url: search.php',\r",
" renderer: 'html',\r",
" scripts: true,\r",
" params: {\r",
" p:'search',menu:'false'\r",
" },\r",
" autoLoad:true\r",
" }"
5 Nov 2012 8:30 AM #4
Great, thanks.
Is there any odd content coming back from search.php? Did it load in the canvas the first time you did it? Injecting iframes have been known to trip up our canvas (we have a fix for this in the next minor release).Aaron Conran
5 Nov 2012 11:39 PM #5
No odd things really, it was loaded in the canvas before I closed the project.
I remember that some of the pages I´ll tryed to load made a trip up the canvas. Hopefully the coming fix will solve this type of problem.
6 Nov 2012 1:23 PM #6
Okay, would you please check again when we release 2.2?
Thanks!Aaron Conran

I realise that many of these points are cons to do with my memory than a camera, but I would not have thought I was any more forgetful than the next person. I'm basically trying to say that the probability of wanting to use the thing and finding that the battery has discharged is quite high. And I suspect you'll find this typical of a lot of cameras on the market - I specifically considered battery life when I bought mine and 90 mins was about as good as it got. Other points maybe come over as a little flippant, but nevertheless they highlight some of the things to look for if you're making a purchasing decision.
I did put one film on YouTube, which you're welcome to view if it'll help your decision.
Its not brilliant.
I see a previous commenter has mentioned weight, in my case that's not an issue, the camera weighs next to nothing. One other thing you may find useful is that I have a 16GB card in mine and according to the manufacturers that equates to about 4 hours. So no problem whatsoever about space, given how frequently I need to hook the camera to a pc in any case.
Hope this gives you some food for thought.

Hey guys,
I've been working on this during the weekend, it's melodic and slightly poppy dubstep with some filth thrown in as well. It's still a WIP, so it's very much unmixed, but this is the general idea of the track, just wanted to get some feedback and perhaps some ideas as well, thanks
Update: Polished the first drop, updated the break and started on the second drop, not really sure where I'm going, but this is where it's at at the moment. Still not mixed at all.
Update: I've primarily worked on the rhytm in the first 16 bars of the first drop and in the second drop, just a minor update, but I'd love some feedback anyway.
Update: More focus on the first drop, trying to get it just right by not going over the top, the second drop as of now is just a placeholder. Still lots to work on: Mixing, transitions, percussion, structure, break etc. but what do you think about the first drop?
Update: It's getting closer, but what do you guys think about it now?

From some experience in Beijing, some on CCTV 9, and some reading, I begin to suspect that in Beijing the pronunciation "一块" is more often used for the count noun, and "一块儿" is more often used to mean "together." Could that be right?

In Beijing dialect/Northern China dialects, 一块儿 is the idiomatic pronunciation of 一块 for all its meanings. E.g.
Note the special usage of 块 in 一块钱 (one RMB Yuan) should not be pronounced as 一块儿钱. 一块儿钱 makes no sense.
Having said that, your impression of 一块儿 is often used to mean "together" is also right. This is because the usage of 一块 (even without 儿) to mean "together" itself is a Northern China idiom; In Southern China, 一起/一齐 is more common. In other word, people who choose 一块 over 一起 will also tend to use 儿话音. On the other hand 一块 as a count word is the preferred word to mean "one piece" across all Chinese speaking regions.
(I) a piece of, a mass of
(II) (Extended Meaning) together
(I) a piece of, a mass of
(II) (Extended Meaning) together
一块儿 is just an oral/colloquial style of 一块.
In China, using 一块儿(sounds yíkuàr, NOTICE:"一" sounds yí(阳平) here) in your spoken Chinese, should be more natural and welcome:)
But in Taiwan, do not speak yíkuàr. Speaking yíkuài should be welcome.

The A7 focus faster and more accurately. A lot of both.I don't know about Sony software but I'd love crappy Canon software because for tethering it blows c-1 away. The 1dx uses ethernet and you can run a cable the length of a football field and it never, ever, ever drops a frame or doesn't come up instantly.Phase has never made the ethernet work with C-1.I like C-1, use to like it a lot better until the latest release that is bog slow, but it's still more complicated than it need be.Use DPP with adobe bridge as a browser, you'll see what I mean.IMOBC
Kensico Lake, Westchester Co. NY - hb cf39-ms on h2 with 80mm
Hi Guy's. Although I've been lurking around for a while, I have only just decided to join in the mix. I know this is "Luminous-Landscape" and I don't really shoot anything other than products/still-life, but I have yet to find another forum which has such a large and involved MF digital group. I've been shooting 35mm and only very recently made the jump to MF (purchased a new system Dec. 23rd of 2013). Anyway, here are some of my most recent images.These two images: 645DF - Aptus II-12 - 80mm f/2.8 LS D

I heard that access to Bhutan is quite restricted for all people of outside South-Asian countries? Can I have the details on that?
This is indeed true. What HaLaBi's answer misses out on - and this is what makes it expensive rather than difficult per se - is that the Bhutan government sets a minimum daily tariff that tourists are supposed to spend when booking with a travel agent (and visas can only be obtained once a tour package has been booked with a travel agent).
The details are listed on the Bhutan tourism website.
Couples or solo travellers have it slightly harder:
So while the visa is not harder to get, Bhutan controls the influx of tourists using this pricing strategy. It's part of a bigger policy the Bhutan government has on regulating its policies to measure 'Gross National Happiness' (GNH) rather than GDP.
Obtaining Bhutanese visa for citizens of other than India, Bangladesh and Maldives seems quite difficult. According to the official website of Tourism Council of Bhutan you will need to book a tour with a local licensed tour operator directly or through a foreign travel agent which will submit the visa request for you:
