The URL that you can copy and paste:
@mevirtually: Good catch, thanks for pointing that out. I'll make sure I'll leave the extraneous parameters out of the URL next time.
Combined with my Shoprunner free shipping, I got a bunch of micro-USB cables for about eighty cents apiece.
I think i'm going to use this on a Hyrbid ssd/hdd and 2.5-3.5 adapter. Both have coupons!
@ibriian: No biggie. I mostly posted it because Woot likes to redirect to commission sites which my browser blocks, so I have to manually type in the URL when that happens. It's easy if it's the site's main page, but when it's buried in the site like this was, it's a little trickier, and I figured if I had to type it, maybe someone else would too, so I pasted it in there.

Penn Athletics will be inducting its Hall of Fame Class VIII this Saturday, May 5 at the Inn at Penn. As we prepare for the upcoming ceremony, we will be introducing each inductee over the next several days. Click here to find the original release on all the inductees, from February 22.
Diana Caramanico is quite simply the most dominant women's basketball player in Penn history. Arguably, she may have been the most dominant player in women's Philadelphia Big 5 and Ivy League history.
Caramanico's 2,415 career points still stand as the Big 5 and Ivy League records, and she remains the only men's or women's player in Penn's illustrious basketball history to score more than 2,000 career points.
The first and only All-America in program annals, Caramanico led the Quakers to their first-ever Ivy League title and NCAA Tournament game in 2000-01. In addition, she is one of just seven players in league history to earn first-team All-Ivy honors four times. More than a decade since her final game, Caramanico still holds nine school records and several Ivy League marks while remaining in the all-time top 5 countless other times in both record books.
As a freshman, Caramanico became just the second Quaker in program history to score 500 points in a season -- something she went on to do in each of her final three seasons as well. In addition to her first-team All-Ivy accolades, Caramanico became the first player in Penn history to earn Ivy League Rookie of the Year honors and was also the first Quaker selected as Philadelphia Big 5 and ECAC Rookie of the Year. Her 10 Ivy League Rookie of the Week awards remain the league standard.
A year later, Caramanico was named Big 5 Player of the Year, Ivy League Player of the Year, unanimous first-team All-Ivy, first-team All-Big 5 and second-team All-ECAC -- as a sophomore. She recorded 21 double-doubles in 26 games, set the school record with 333 rebounds, and became the fastest athlete in Penn men's or women's basketball history to record 1,000 career points.
The accolades kept pouring in for Caramanico following her junior season, when she set the current school record with 694 points. She was named Associated Press honorable mention All-America, District I GTE Academic All-America, and District I Kodak/WBCA All-America. Her 24.8 points-per-game average was second in the nation that season. Penn won a then-school record 18 games in 1999-2000 to post the program's first winning record since the 1990-91 season.
In 2000-01, Caramanico's senior season, the Quakers became just the second team in league history to finish with a perfect 14-0 mark in Ivy play. Penn's 22 overall wins that season remain the program's high-water mark. For the third time in her career, she was named Ivy League and Big 5 Player of the Year. Caramanico scored 607 points in her final season, including 42 against Albany which remains the program's single-game record.
Caramanico is the only Penn player with 1,000 career rebounds (1,207), remains the program's all-time steals leader (210), and is third all-time with 114 career blocked shots. She also holds the school's top marks for field goals in a season (268) and a career (927).
At the time of her graduation, Caramanico ranked seventh on the NCAA Division I scoring list with a career average of 22.7 points per game. She also ranked second on the all-time NCAA Division I rebounding list with a career average of 12.8 per game.
From 2001-03, Caramanico played professional basketball in France. She was the leading Division II scorer in France both years. She was inducted into the Philadelphia Big 5 Hall of Fame in 2007.
Caramanico statement
"Having trained myself to instantly forget all previous actions while playing, I can't say I remember a whole lot of my time on the court. What I do recall is the enjoyment, camaraderie, pride, and sense of warmth that came from the hours spent in the weight room, Weightman, various buses and games, and most importantly The Palestra with my coaches and teammates. The Palestra was my 'Giving Tree,' as being on the basketball team with unlimited access to that wonderful arena afforded me the opportunity to connect and bond with many people (including my now husband, Geoff Owens), excel in my studies, and enrich my college experience immeasurably. I am deeply humbled by this honor and would like to thank all of my coaches (especially Coach Greenberg and Julie Soriero), teammates, Keith Weigelt, strength coaches Wagner and Steel, Sam and the rest of the training staff, all of our managers, and the generous donors who helped provide opportunities for us as players that might not otherwise have been possible. While it was conceivably my actions on the court that have earned this honor for me, I hope that my teammates and coaches will share in it with me as without them I would not have found success. I am most proud to be a member of the first Ivy League championship team in women's basketball. Finally, I would like to thank my parents for their undying love and support, and for providing me with the opportunity to come to Penn."

Generate application for android
I use Sencha Touch Cmd to generate my application Sencha touch 2.1 with the line command :
sencha package generate <configTemplate.json>.
In my directory build, I don't see the apk file but I see asets, bin, libs, res, resources, src, etc...

I am obliged to specify the certificate ?
thank you for your help
22 Jan 2013 7:58 AM #8
Yes you have to specify the certificate.
Here's some short details from "Android" website:
"The Android system requires that all installed applications be digitally signed with a certificate whose private key is held by the application's developer. The Android system uses the certificate as a means of identifying the author of an application and establishing trust relationships between applications. The certificate is not used to control which applications the user can install. The certificate does not need to be signed by a certificate authority: it is perfectly allowable, and typical, for Android applications to use self-signed certificates."
"All applications must be signed. The system will not install an application on an emulator or a device if it is not signed."Sencha Inc

Why is it that native speakers of Japanese have a hard time pronouncing "l"? Whenever a western word contains "L" I see that they pronounce it "ru", "ra", "ro", "ri", or "re".
Sign up
- Anybody can ask a question
- Anybody can answer
- The best answers are voted up and rise to the top
If you ask a Japanese person to say a word like renraku fast, and then gradually ask them to say it more and more slowly, you will notice that what initially sounded like an r becomes an l as they slow down (usually earlier on for women). So the claim that l and r don't exist is simply wrong -- they both do, but as variants (allophones) of the same sound (phoneme).
If you tell them that they first said an r and then an l, you will surprise the heck out of them as they usually have no idea about this and will probably be unable to tell the difference. The reason is fairly simple: it's the same sound in Japanese. The only difference between the Japanese l and the Japanese r -- not the English r, which is quite different -- is mostly the duration of the contact between the tongue and the roof of the mouth and while this feature allows the two sounds to be distinguished in European languages, it is NOT a distinguishing feature in Japanese.
Similarly, English speakers fail to distinguish many sounds. Some languages have nasal vowels (French, Portuguese, Polish, etc.): when the soft palate is lowered to allow air to pass through the nose as a vowel is produced, it changes a vowel to a nasal vowel and this is a distinguishing feature -- but not in English. So in a word like bank, the a is nasal because it is following by a "ng" sound, and if you ask English speakers what vowel is it, they'll say it's an a, while for a speaker of Portuguese, it's a nasal vowel, not an "a". Another example is how English t, p and k sounds are aspirated (there is a puff of air) at the beginning of words or between vowels, but not after an s, for instance. English speakers usually have no idea about this, but in other languages, such as Korean, aspirated and unaspirated t's are two very different consonants. So if you want some insight into how it feels to not tell l and r apart, ask yourself why you, as an English speaker (if you are), can't distinguish nasality or aspiration.
So the first problem is that Japanese people have a hard time hearing whether an l or an r is being produced because they are two possible realizations of the single phoneme to them, and consequently, they have a very difficult time remembering which is which. You'll find the same thing with z/dz. Ask a Japanese if you should say zettai (with a z) and they'll say yes. Ask again if it's dzettai (with dz) and they'll also say yes. Ask which they prefer and they'll tell you they only heard one pronunciation, even though you clearly said z in one case and dz in the other.
To make matters worse, they start out learning English using the wrong kind of flapped r (as in Spanish or Italian), while the English r is not flapped, but is rather a retroflex r where the tongue is curled back and doesn't touch any part of the mouth. To make matters even worse, the way English words are borrowed into Japanese interferes with their perception of English words, ie. they are spelled in a way that doesn't distinguish l and r (love=rabu), final r's are turned into a's (computer=kompyuutaa), etc. They really need to stop using katakana transcriptions. Note also that the English r involves lip-rounding, but since this isn't used in Japanese -- and they start learning to pronounce English without ever using lip-rounding -- they fail to see this as an important feature of English r.
The second problem is that even if they remember which is which, production is very difficult because the brain is used to treating both sounds as one, and they usually spent a fair bit of their lives as learners of English in a context where you simply said l and r the same and that's how everyone did it. It's a bit like relearning to walk after an injury.
So, while it's true that some Japanese people have a difficult time saying the English r, most can usually make l and r in isolation once they've understood how the sounds work. The biggest problem is that they have a hard time telling l and r apart when hearing it in speech, remembering whether a given word actually has an l or an r (and they often misspell words containing these sounds), and then producing either sound with regularity is ultimately the most difficult exercise.
One final note: to make it easier to explain, I left out some details. For instance, the English l is sometimes curled and English l and r are sometimes devoiced (compare ray and pray). These are small details that also make the sounds harder to produce accurately.
Same reason English native speakers have problems with the Spanish /r/ (both versions) They don't exist in the language. The Japanese ら、れ、etc is a combination of /r/ and /l/ (it's actually quite similar to the soft Spanish /r/) It is possible for Japanese people who have been studying the language for a long time and have traveled abroad to pronounce them correctly, but for a beginner, or somebody who just studied the basics (in a very deficient way) at high school, it's probably difficult. Same happens with English natives learning Spanish, and vice versa. And obviously, it's also difficult for us to pronounce correctly the Japanese ら、れ、etc (among others)
The problem with L and R is that niether of them exist in Japanese. The Japanese sound is more of a cross between the English R and L, so it's very difficult to distinguish the two, hence Engrish. A proper hard R is actually just as difficult to pronounce as an L for Japanese speakers, and the hardest words to pronounce are those with both sounds (for example, parallel).
It might be hard to understand from an English speaker's viewpoint, because the difference is as clear as day, but go ahead and try to distinguish the Chinese X and SH
Because [l] simply isn't in the native phonetic inventory of Japanese. The lack of phones in your native phonetic inventory is the reason for most pronunciation difficulties.
Just to add an observation, though:
When trying to explain the [l] sound to native Japanese speakers, I usually tell them that it's like an [n] sound, except you should point your tongue a bit to allow air to escape on both sides of it. But it seems that this can be harder than it sounds. And thinking about it, no Japanese sound requires you to point your tongue. Doing things with your tongue you're not used to requires muscle training, and native Japanese speakers would probably lack this training.
There is a very good article in the Scientific American Mind magazine: http://www.scientificamerican.com/magazine/mind/2014/07-01/ (pages 24-25).
The authors also talk about an experiment that was developed at Carnegie Melon University, which teaches native Japanese speakers to learn the difference between L and R sounds with reinforcement learning.
There is also a free app which utilses the same reinforcement learning technique discovered by the scientist at Carnegie Melon University at: http://www.lirril.co
The answer here summarises my feelings on the matter as someone who's grown up with both languages:
I'd strenuate the use of the English "L" noise when attempting Japanese words, I've never really understood why learning systems adopted "R's" when "L's" seem closer in sound.
so basically, its because in japanese, we do not have the letter L. you dont have to be so technical.

Google Dictionary was great tool. Google shut it down. Is there any way I can directly search Google Dictionary, like for this definition of "phew"?
You can use the search operator
Also, if you're using Google Chrome, you can install Google Dictionary extension. In Firefox, a similar extension is called Wiktionary and Google Translate.
You can Get to the dictonary by using the normal Google search and then clicking "More Search Tools". You should get something like so:

Once there you can simply use the Search bar and search for words like a dictionary.

You're Pregnant: Making Plans
OK, so you're pregnant. Where do you go from here? Sit down take a deep breath and "veg" for a bit. Squelch the urge to panic. Give into the excitement and joy. Scream if you need to. But above all, give yourself a chance to assimilate the news. You have plenty of time for planning the baby won't be born for nine months or 40 weeks, give or take a few days or weeks. Right now you, the mother, are the one who needs to be taken care of. If you feel like starting a list, here are some of the things you might put on it.
- Choose a doctor (or midwife).
- Choose a hospital.
- Check insurance coverage (yours or your spouse's).
- Check into maternity leave (if you're employed) or your spouse's paternity leave (if he has it).
Don't Go Hog Wild Just Yet
Resist the urge to go on a spending spree, buying baby clothes, maternity clothes, diapers, cribs, and assorted baby paraphernalia. For one thing, people need something to give you for baby showers, so it's OK to look and make your lists at some retail stores, but it's too early to buy. For another, trust me on this one you really don't want all that stuff sitting around staring you in the face for 10 months. It will make the time go even more slowly. You have almost a year to wait before the baby is born. Take it easy and don't rush something that can't be rushed darn it, anyway!
The Absolute Minimum
- First, find out if you're pregnant.
- Take a backup test if necessary.
- Make a list of the things you'll need to do that is, finding a doctor, a hospital, checking your insurance coverage, and so on.
- Make a doctor's appointment.
- Shout your news from the rooftops.
- Get some sleep you'll need it!

I've had a teacher flatly tell me that とっても is incorrect, but I do see it written here and there and I'm pretty sure I hear it as well. Is it just so informal relative to とても that I should never use it in a classroom or on schoolwork?
Sign up
- Anybody can ask a question

とっても is a spoken variant of とても, just like すんごい is a spoken variant of すごい and あんまり is a spoken variant of あまり. If you're writing a paper or speaking in a formal setting, it's better to use とても.
とっても is just a strong form of とても according to 大辞泉, so both are correct.
It has similar pronunciation (may be a bit different intonation) with 取っても, so may be it could confuse some.
But usage of とっても can be found since 昭和30年(1955) (at least) from this song called
So, I believe you can use it most of the time but if the place you are going to use demand too formal, you may need to use non-strong one とても. But I doubt most people would not care or even notice it unless they are tracking you like in your case.
It's like the difference between really and reeeeally. とっても is not incorrect, but it might be a little colloquial to use in a classroom, depending on the teacher. It's even in my dictionary with a couple of examples. In the dictionary it says 「とても」を強めていう語, it makes とても stronger.
Bonus Here's an episode from an anime called とっても!タッキーマン on YouTube
Generally, とっても gives a stronger emphasis to what you're describing, but it can be "too strong" in certain situations, such as formal and semi-formal situations(even with new friends) and real writing.
On the other hand, it's generally A-OK to use とても in any situation, though for more formal situations, you might want to substitute the word out with 大変(たいへん).

- To make the topping, place the whipped topping in a medium-sized bowl, and gently fold in 1 tablespoon of the chocolate syrup mixture. Set aside.
- To assemble the pie, first split each of the ladyfingers in half lengthwise. (Most ladyfingers come presplit.) Line the bottom and sides of a 9-inch deep dish pie pan with about two-thirds of the ladyfinger halves, arranging them split side-up. Drizzle half of the chocolate syrup mixture over the ladyfingers that line the bottom of the pan.
- Spread the ice cream over the ladyfingers. Then top with the remaining ladyfingers, this time arranging them split side-down.
- Drizzle the remaining chocolate syrup mixture over the ladyfingers layer. Then spread the whipped topping mixture over the syrup, swirling the topping.
- Cover the pie loosely with aluminum foil, and freeze for several hours or overnight. When ready to serve, sprinkle the cocoa over the top of the pie. Cut the pie into wedges, place the wedges on individual serving plates, and allow to sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before serving.
- For variety, substitute raspberry ripple or chocolate ice cream for the cappuccino ice cream.

I have used sakis3g to connect to internet as network manager is not able to make a connection although it recognizes the modem.But the problem is many software including pidgin and software center doesn't know that computer is already connected to internet and I am having problems installing software especially the debs I downloaded. Although I can still download and install packages from terminal.
So is there any way I can make software center recognize this connection?
can I install debs in some other alternative way?

Some of you may have seen these swatches before, as I've been basically sitting on them since March (part of my backlog of swatches that need to be posted...). Hopefully that's not too big of a deal!
On the whole, I was reasonably impressed with these, just because there aren't that many good matte eyeshadows available in the drugstore, and these are definitely of decent quality. I found the first four in the swatch picture (Vintage Lace through Luscious Lime) to be a little bit chalky, but not too bad. I absolutely LOVE the other five, though. I can't see myself wearing Venetian Blue except maybe some Halloween, but the last four (Tempting Teal through Rich Sable) are just stunning and all could make great crease colors. I've heard Vintage Lace compared to MAC Blanc Type; the colors are pretty similar, but I do prefer the MAC Matte² formula in this case (Blanc Type is smoother and more pigmented than Vintage Lace). On that note, though, I'd say that the last five shades in the swatches definitely have a feel and finish similar to MAC Matte²s.
These are $5 each in most drugstores, and you can often find Revlon BOGOF. Cool, huh?

PROVIDENCE, RI - The Charlotte 49ers (21-12) had four double-figure scorers but it was not enough as the 49ers saw their season end with a 75-66 loss at Providence (18-14) in the first round of the NIT.
"Our team has shown a lot of different faces this season," Charlotte coach Alan Major said. "Our effort tonight was indicative of our season as we fought to the end. I am very proud of our team."
E. Victor Nickerson led the 49ers with 14 points. He scored 10 points in the first half. Terrence Williams and Chris Braswell each scored 12 points. Braswell record his 76th double-figure scoring game in his final game as a Niner. Willie Clayton added 10 points.
Charlotte's bench behind the scoring of Chris Braswell and Ivan Benkovic's six points finished the game with a 24-2 advantage in bench scoring.
Providence led for the majority of the first half and the score was tied six times in the first half. With Providence leading 29-26 with 5:18 left in the half, the 49ers finished the half on a 10-4 run taking a 36-33 halftime lead. Clayton, Nickerson and Braswell scored during the 49ers run.
Providence scored four of the first five points of the second half tying the score at 37 with 18:27 on the clock.
Then, Charlotte went on a 7-0 capped off by a three-pointer from the wing by Williams which gave the 49ers a 44-37 lead with 15:21 left in the second half.
Over the next seven minutes, Providence went on a 17-4 run taking a 54-48 lead with 8:26 on the clock when Providence's Vincent Council knocked down a three. Benkovic answered Council's three with a three from the corner with 8:14 on the clock. Benkovic's three started a 49ers 7-0 run capped off by a short jumper by Braswell giving the 49ers a 55-54 lead with 6:33 on the clock.
However, that would be the 49ers last lead as Providence went on a 6-0 run over the next minute and half taking the lead for good.

|Mira was a little girl, actually a big girl of four years old. She was happy in her life. It was full of friends, cousins, fun times, a wonderful house, a backyard and two parents who loved her and were lot of fun.
|One day Mira learned something hard to hear: Mom had cancer. Cancer is a sickness, except often you don't really feel sick from it. Mira's Mom had cancer for the first time before Mira was born. Now it came back and the doctors were concerned. There are lots of people in America with cancer and doctors are working very hard to cure them.
|Mira wondered how her Mom could have something serious like cancer. She didn't seem sick. She ran, went to work, laughed, kept the house clean, played with Mira and cooked dinner, so . . . Mira was puzzled.
|One day Mira's Mom explained to her that she had to go to the hospital for a whole month to get some very strong medicine to fight cancer inside her, so it would not come back again. Mira's Mom didn't want to go to the hospital and be away from Mira for a month, but the doctors said she had to -- or else she could get really really sick from the cancer. When Mira heard about the month in the hospital, she felt like crying. So did her mom.
|How was she going to get along without her Mom for a whole month? Mira knew what a month looked like cause in school she learned about calendars and a month is 30 sleeps.
|Once Mira's Mom went to the hospital, Mira discovered something that surprised her: it wasn't as hard as she thought it would be! In fact, she felt kind of grown up -- she and her Dad could manage, the two of them. And Grandma and Grandpa and her Aunts Judy, Sue, Rachel, and Ruthie and her Uncles Jeffrey, Danny and Micahel were real nice too -- they took her on special outings. Friends brought dinner over and had Mira and her Dad to their home for suppoer, and even Mira's teachers and school friends were extra nice and helpful.
|Mira noticed how much love there was in her world, even when the most important person, her Mom, was missing.
|When Mira went to visit her Mom in the hospital it was hard sometimes. First of all, her Mom was bald!! The special medicine to fight the cancer made her hair fall out; but it would grow back and when her Mom came home from the hospital she would wear a wig or a scarf to cover her bald head until her own hair grew back.
|The other hard thing about the hospital was that Mira's Mom looked thin and kind of pale and was tired alot. Mira couldn't kiss her either becuase of maybe giving her germs. When she went in her Mom's room she had to wash her hands and wear a mask. Everyone told Mira that in a while her Mom would look her old self again and Mira tried to believe them.
|Sometimes Mira would miss her Mom in the middle of the day at school and feel like crying. But when she felt like this, she learned to tell one of her teachers and then she'd get a big hug and in a little while she felt better.
|Mira wanted the month to be over already, so her Mom could be home and they could laugh and cuddle and snuggele and talk and play like before.
|One night before Mira fell asleep she lay awake and thought of her Mom lying in a different bed across the city and how neat it was that two people could be thinking of each other at the same time in two different places. She kissed her pillow.
|Finally the Big Day arrived -- Mom was coming home!! Mira was excited but she also felt different -- like she was a bigger girl than when her Mom left for the hospital.
|"I'm bigger now," she said to both her parents when Mom was safe and sound at home again. "I know I can get along without my Mom. I can brush my teeth and get dressed and go to school and have fun. I missed you, but I learned a lot too. Not just about hospitals, but about how strong I am, and how strong love is, and how I can help myself feel better when I feel sad or lonely."
|"Mira," her Mom said, "I'm so very proud of you. Sometimes life can be hard, but if you learn and grow from it, then you become an even better person."
|Mira hugged and kissed her Mom and her Mom kissed her back. They both had been through something very hard -- and they both felt proud of each other.

Which is better DEM or TIN?
What are the benefits/negatives of each?
It is all very dependent on your needs. You know that TIN is a vector-based representation whereas DEM is represented as a raster from grid of squares. Actually TIN is a type of DEM and derived from the raster DEM.
The TIN representation has information about altitude, slope and aspect and you can use them to extract the areas you require.
There is an information here about TIN and raster DEM.

Not so long ago, setting up a robotic work cell was a trial-and-error affair. However, advances in simulation technology allow manufacturers to visualize a robotic work cell and sort out any problems before setting up the cell. Simulating the work cell's function helps to ensure the cell will yield the desired results and helps prevent costly mistakes and re-engineering.

You can successfully roll-form a profile more than one way. In fact, many roll form designers take different approaches to design and development. Also, because the roll forming process has a seeming limitless capacity to produce complex profiles with just as many variables, many roll form designs are one-of-a-kind; therefore, theory can go only so far.

36th MSRA Car Show - Land of 11,510 CarsWritten by on September 30, 2009 Back To The 50's In St. Paul, Minnesota
A month later and the feeling still keeps coming back-that combination of awe, excitement, and sensory overload.
It comes back whenever I catch the scent of deep-fried cheese curds or pork chops on a stick. It comes back whenever I hear the sound of 11,000-plus '64-and-earlier rods, customs, classics, and trucks in one place at one time. It came back this week as I sifted through my photos from the Minnesota Street Rod Association's (MSRA) huge annual event at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds in St. Paul. Suddenly, in my imagination, I was back at Back to the 50's, probably the biggest rod and custom event I've ever been to in my life.
This year was the 36th time the MSRA has hosted this event, and it was my first time attending. I hope it's not the last. The shade tree-filled fairgrounds is a fantastic place for a gathering of 11,510 cars and trucks (this year's total). Despite its size, Back to the 50's has the feel of a regional car club event-which, come to think of it, it is. The MSRA is a non-profit group of volunteers who just happen to know how to put on a car show.
Of course, Back to the 50's has all the extra stuff we like about big car shows-an extensive manufacturers midway, a great swap meet, live bands, oldies music from announcer Wings Kalahan, plus the Dana Mecum Hot Rod Auction. And we like what it doesn't have-namely, trophies. Can you believe that 11,510 show cars will show up even if they can't go home with an award? They sure will!
What we liked the best was the variety-from freshly finished rides to in-the-works projects to survivors that folks have owned for 20, 30, even 50 years. We found high-tech and traditional cars, and big-buck and low-budget cars. On these pages, you'll notice an emphasis on the traditionally inspired iron, on owner-builds, and on a few of those survivors, but we tried to present an assortment to show the diversity of the event.
We've already been to www.msra.com for information on the 37th Back to the 50's for 2010. We'll look for you there. We might not find you, but we'll sure look for you.
The Show on the Road
We love car shows and we love show cars; but we really love hearing about enthusiasts getting out and driving their rods and customs. Back to the 50's was just one of many stops on a 4,200-mile road trip for these four couples from British Columbia, Canada. When we met them in St. Paul, they had already driven these cars from their hometown of Kelowna to Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, then back into Canada, through Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and down into Minnesota. From St. Paul, they were heading to the Speedway Motors Museum in Lincoln, Nebraska, then onto Mt. Rushmore and Yellowstone, followed by Great Falls, Montana, and Calgary, Alberta, and, finally, home to Kelowna. They promised to send us photos and stories from their road trip. We'll post those, along with more photos of these cars, on the R&C website at www.rodandcustommagazine.com.
From left to right are Chuck and Kim Wilsone with their Hemi-powered '41 DeSoto, Jim and Jackie Radloff and their '54 Ford, Steve and Liz Foster and their '56 Ford wagon, and Ralph and Barb Carlaw with their '63 Buick.

This former four-door '34 Dodge sedan is channeled over a handbuilt frame and runs a '55 Dodge 270 Hemi with a three-speed OD trans and a banjo rearend with a homemade quick-change poking through the rear sheetmetal. Twenty-inch rear wheels were custom machined to resemble the 17-inch artillery wheels in front. The buckets are high school auditorium seats. Owner Darrell Bernloehr says some flat brown paint is in the future.This is the second season for John Pazik's stunning contemporary custom, which is modified all over without disguising its '56 Chevy identity. Modified Saab seats are separated by a floating arm rest and custom console. A dressed-up small-block fills the engine compartment.Not finished, but already cool, Russ Pooler's '26 tub was a four-door when work started. The dash is from a '50 Pontiac Silver Streak; the bomber buckets will eventually be covered in rawhide.

Tom began building it in 1966, inspired by Tommy Ivo's T. He's been driving it since 1973. The Nailhead engine is a 425 Super Wildcat. Wheels are 4-inch American 200S fronts with 10 inchers in back. The Mor-Drop axle and Kellison 'glass body from the '60s are more old-time parts.Gerald Anderson bought this '34 Ford pickup, pulled it home, and started collecting parts. That was 50 years ago. Since then, it's been built, rebuilt, raced, and driven all over. Now it's running a throttle body-injected Fire Power Hemi and a "poor man's five-speed" Saginaw four-speed with Borg-Warner OD.
We could've spent all weekend listening to stories from Ken Anderson of North Branch, Minnesota, (brother of Gerald with the '34 pickup) who bought this '32 Tudor in 1961 and hasn't done much with it except drive it-and add those Cragars probably sometime in the '70s. Most of the paint-brown body, black fenders, and gray along the beltline-appears to be original.Ernie Benjamin's been coming to this event for years, but this was his first time with a hot rod. His chopped-and-channeled '29 has a few old-time East Coast elements and some cool 'striping on the dash. Since he bought it, he's finished the interior and shot a coat of clear to give the suede black paint a little gloss.This '27 T Tudor is a current project at Tin Man Fabrications. The suicide front end hangs in front of the custom frame. The engine is a 396 big-block. Owner Dan Crews chopped the top, channeled the body, and die-hammered a new beltline. His brother Jim's bullet-holed roadster behind it was on R&C's January '07 cover.A little bit of white paint on the brake backing plates, axle, and recessed firewall looks great next to the blue on Brian Wick's '31 coupe, riding on Deuce 'rails. We like the drilled I-beam and split 'bones, the Wings gauges, piecrust bias-ply whitewalls, and that custom high-rise manifold with six 94s.Todd Doyle brought out this '52 Buick hardtop, painted Metalflake Green with a Champagne top. Like the outside, the interior is primarily stock with some mild mods-such as a LeCarra Mark 10 nostalgic steering wheel on a tilt column.This clean little '33 Ford pickup belongs to Joe and Jan Wyles, who brought it from Waterloo, Iowa. It's loaded with a lot of eye-appealing traditional elements like the red tuck 'n' roll interior, Moon tank, and Flathead with an Offy manifold and a pair of 94s.Something compels me to take a photo whenever a Gasser-style straight-axle Willys rolls by. This patina'd '40 belongs to Ben and Cherie Shannon. We didn't catch the name of the owner of the Cinnamon-colored '41, but it looks like those rear fenders are filled a little better for tripping the win light!
This was the fourth summer that this '39 Ford ragtop has been completed, but Bill and Karen Steiner have owned it for 23 years. The door handles are gone but much of the trim remains. There's a 400 small-block inside and a Mustang II front suspension underneath.Jim and Mary Pittelko's '56 Olds 98 has passed from Jim's great-uncle, to his father, and now to Jim. The 37,000-original-mile car still runs the factory 324 Rocket engine, original interior, mostly stock drivetrain, stock sheetmetal, and original chrome trim. The only major changes are the AOD trans and the House of Kolor paint.

A T has eight corners. Six of these point outwards and two (the armpit) corners face inwards. In reference to a building, what is the term to describe the inward corners?
The closest I've come up with is the Axilla corners or Oxter corner but I can find no reference to those two terms ever being used outside of medicine.

Tierra Blanca Ranch director Scott Chandler is still nowhere to be found.
Our 4 On Your Side team is getting to know the man everyone wants to know more about.
Friends and neighbors tell KOB Eyewitness News 4 that Scott Chandler is a good man operating a ranch his father once owned.
But his answers to our questions reveal other sides of man at the center of a major child abuse investigation.
"We don't operate at the ranch and live in fear," said Chandler. "You can't operate in fear."
Chandler spoke those words during an impromptu press conference last Thursday.
Chandler is 42 years old and has no New Mexico criminal record, or any significant financial troubles according to an in-depth background check.
"We've been here all along," he said of his ranch on Thursday. "We've been practicing the way we've been practicing for 17 years."
Records for Scott Chandler's connection to a Hillsboro-area ranch go back to 1990.
By phone, 17-year friend Loni Rubio called Chandler a hard-working man who often brought Tierra Blanca boys around to help.
The director of Hillsboro's Community Center says the Chandlers don't usually participate in local area events.
"Nobody wants to think the worst about their kid, I don't even want to do that," said Chandler in an online video posted to the Tierra Blanca Ranch web site.
According to another video on the Tierra Blanca Ranch website, Chandler says his connection to troubled teens goes back to the 1970s when his family moved from Texas, and his parents purchased the ranch.
"My family took in many, many kids," Chandler said in the video. "I grew up with our spare bedroom constantly being used as a safe haven for these kids."
In the video, Chandler reveals he began a formal structure at the ranch in 1996.
That structure is now the center of an investigation into allegations of abuse.
Chandler has dismissed the need for credentials or licensing.
"Everybody wants to make it about credentials," he said on Thursday. "Compare our success to the supposed credentialed people."
During the Thursday interview with 4 On Your Side's Chris Ramirez, Chandler talked about his distrust of government agencies.
"They've even invaded the schools where the schools can't discipline the kids," he said.
Chandler was listed as a person of interest in a Friday Amber Alert for 9 boys who went missing from the Tierra Blanca Ranch.
Scott Chandler's whereabouts are still unknown to law enforcement.

Inside Day After A Fall
Since January, 2003 (N = 752), we've had 100 inside days. In general, returns following inside days are nothing to write home about. Two days later, the market (SPY) averages no change (47 up, 53 down), compared with a gain of .09% (402 up, 350 down) for the sample overall.
When the inside day follows strength (an up day; N = 50), the next two days in SPY average a loss of -.11% (23 up, 27 down). When the inside day follows weakness (a down day; N = 50), the next two days in SPY average a gain of .12% (24 up, 26 down). Interestingly, when the inside day follows a very weak session (down by more than 1%; N = 17), such as the present situation, the next two days average a gain of .40% (9 up, 8 down).
In general, inside days following strength tend to be weaker than inside days following weakness, but there are no decisive edges in the data. It's a bit like poker: knowing when you have a hand that gives you no real odds is not exciting, but--to a pro--it's information. In time you'll draw the nuts; mucking your hand when you have nothing helps you keep your winnings. Today we've drawn 4, 8 unsuited.

Both the diamonds and spyders are showing a good consolidation pattern. I've noticed that your look back statistical look seems to focus on daily price variations by enlarge. Do you ever look back for larger patterns such as the basing patterns of dia's and spy's right now?
I wonder if the axion that the inevitable breakout is generally in the direction of the trend preceeding the consolidation has any statistical validity. Thanks, Lynn
- Brett Steenbarger, Ph.D. said...
It's an interesting question, and I'll do a longer-term study to investigate. Thanks--

Risk is not a static measurement; we cannot simply look at historic volatility of a market and assume that is the way it will always be.
Historical measurements can give us a guideline of how the market should behave if things remain as they are, however as Heraclitus stated about life in Greece over 2,500 years ago "Change is the only constant."
- Brett Steenbarger, Ph.D. said...
Thanks; your observation is quite correct. Looking at historical patterns only makes sense if those patterns are capturing something meaningful about markets that will persist into the near-term future. If all is changing all the time, then of course no trading is possible because price changes would be truly random.
It is difficult for me to accept that there are no regularities to markets when I work with traders who make significant money year after year, watch them trade, hear them explain their trading, and see the regularities that they exploit.
Markets are like people: they constantly change in their moods, actions, and thoughts. That doesn't mean, however, that their behaviors are unpatterned.
- Lynn H said...
Brett, regarding the traders you work with, in general can you tell us what the basic trading approach is for those you make money year in year out?

Very short-term trading. Nothing held overnight; holding time seconds to a few minutes, on average. Such high frequency trading requires execution capabilities and commission structures that are not available to the average retail trader, which is one reason I focus on longer-term patterns on my Weblog (www.brettsteenbarger.com) and on this site.

I am trying to mount a NAS share to my Ubuntu 11.04. This is my first ever Linux machine, so everything is totaly new for me.
I can access the shares from my windows at: \192.168.0.9\Packages (Packages is the share name on the NAS machine)
I can also mount (or at least I see the Packages icon on the desktop while going through Places) to the Packages share.
However, I want to mount Packages to my \home\administrator\Packages and here is the problem
Trying the following command:
sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.0.9/Packages/ \home\administrator\Packages
throws error: mount error(13) permission denied.
I am putting in my password for the administrator when prompted. (no note - I have likewise to add the Ubuntu to the AD)
I than tried to add the -o username:administrator,password:password but got the same error.
I have isntalled smbfs lready, but don't think that this is the problem
sudo apt-get install smbfs
I will appreciate any help
I also tried
mount.cifs //192.168.0.9/Packages /home/administrator/Packages -o dom=domain,user=administrator,pass=password
This gives
mount error(1): Operation not permitted

I thought it worked, it doesn't.
So to recoup:

What does not work:
- pattern matching, i.e. letting me in while on *.kpn-gprs.nl or *.kpn.net:
So, back on square one.Code:Dec 3 14:58:59 possum sshd[22925]: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 14: can't verify hostname: getaddrinfo(static.kpn.net, AF_INET) failed
Who should I give the floor?
I don't know if this is relevant to this thread but here's something that indicates that hosts.allow and hosts.deny are "deprecated": http://askubuntu.com/a/23225/25656
Shortened urls: See point #11 here. And clicking on them could be risky.
Use ubuntu-support-status with caution.
Code:statia@quokka:~$ ldd `which sshd` | grep wrap libwrap.so.0 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libwrap.so.0 (0x00007f982b712000)Sorry, no extra credits for vasa1Code:statia@possum:/var/log$ ldd `which sshd` | grep wrap libwrap.so.0 => /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libwrap.so.0 (0xb76b1000)
Who wants to try next?
Shouldn't the hosts.allow entry be all on one line?
Code:sshd: 192.168.178.*, *.kpn.net, *.xs4all.nl, *.kpn-gprs.nl, xx.xxx.xx.xxx
OK, I am really at my wits end. Thinking something went wrong with reverse DNS, I figured out the IP-ranges my provider uses and put them in hosts.allow, like so:
Also tried with one line:Code:sshd: 192.168.178.* sshd: *.kpn.net sshd: *.xs4all.nl sshd: *.kpn-gprs.nl sshd: 188.8.131.52/0.0.127.255 sshd: 22.214.171.124/0.0.63.255
After every modification sent a KILL -1 to inetd and did a "service ssh restart"Code:sshd: 192.168.178.* , 188.8.131.52/0.0.63.255
But still:
Code:Dec 4 09:55:59 possum sshd[29736]: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 14: can't verify hostname: getaddrinfo(host-62-133-64-23.kpn-gprs.nl, AF_INET) failed Dec 4 09:55:59 possum sshd[29736]: refused connect from 188.8.131.52 (22.214.171.124)
Last edited by Statia; December 4th, 2012 at 10:24 AM.
Apparently sending inetd a SIGHUP and restarting sshd is not enough.
After a reboot it works.
Leaves me with the question: how should I reread hosts.allow after a change has been made?

Jean-Eric Vergne is hoping to build on his P14 starting position when he tackles the United States GP on Sunday
The Toro Rosso driver achieved his best grid slot since May's Spanish Grand Prix when he crossed the line with a 1:37.879 in Q2 at the Circuit of the Americas.
It was the also the first time in three races that the Frenchman had beaten his team-mate Daniel Ricciardo in qualifying, although he was quick to downplay this.
"I think the team has worked well so far this weekend to produce a car that seems a bit more competitive than in the past few races," said Vergne, who lost track time in Saturday's final practice when he broke his suspension on a kerb.
"It doesn't mean much that I beat my team-mate today, because he had some difficulties in the first session.
"Maybe I could have got a bit more out of the car this afternoon, perhaps found a couple of tenths.
"After going over the kerbs and damaging the suspension this morning, I obviously lost some track time and without that, I might have had a better understanding of the tyres.
"However, as I said before, the car feels good, there are plenty of overtaking opportunities here so my plan tomorrow is to go hunting for some more points."

Preventing details of songs, movies, or any other form of entertainment that parents think is obsene. This ruins many movies/television shows because many things like gore, sex, violence, swears, gay relationships, drug useage, and other things are completely left out. Also, censorship is responsible for starting many useless parent groups that try to prevent anyone under the age of 18 from listening to music with profanity, watching movies, or watching TV. In other words, censorship needs to stop NOW!
Two of the parent groups that are for censorship, the PMRC (which is anti-music) and The White Dot (which is anti-television) have to be the most pointless, worthless organizations ever, right up there with Right-to-lifers and PETA.

Fresh, native sweet corn and tomatoes are a tradition on many tables this time of year. Local produce lovers have an expanding menu of options: The amount of land dedicated to agriculture in southeastern Massachusetts has actually increased in recent years, according to a food system assessment released by the Southeastern Massachusetts Food Security Network.
Farming may be an "old-fashioned" industry in southern New England, but it's making a resurgence. Bristol, Plymouth and Norfolk counties have a combined 1,700 farms on more than 108,000 acres of farmland. Vegetables were grown on nearly 3,000 acres of that farmland, representing about 9 percent of the region's cropland.
Corn represents a big part of that: About 42 percent of vegetable acreage is dedicated to growing corn. Fruit, tree nuts and berries account for 59 percent of total farm revenue. And while money may not grow on trees, farms in the three counties generated $157 million in revenue.
Unfortunately, there seems to be a lack of appreciation for the agricultural products in our own backyards. Only 5.5 percent of local farms' sales come from local residents, according to the study. While some families may enjoy a day out at the farmers market or taking a journey out to the farm to buy produce, location and convenience seem to be driving the local market share.
Some farmstands, such as Swansea's Almeida's Vegetable Patch, have found their niche — and business is booming. Its location on busy Route 6 means that it's a convenient stop, as well as a local tradition. It also has convenient hours, which may be one reason that some farmers markets are not doing as well as they could.
Furthermore, some local supermarkets do promote their locally grown food as well, so some consumers may not see the need to give up convenience in exchange for farm-fresh produce.
Indeed, some of the more out-of-the-way farm stands have struggled to attract local business. Some farmers markets, while plentiful in recent years, may not be a very profitable proposition. Some farmers say they're better off bringing their produce to farmers markets in Boston and Cape Cod, because there's more demand and they can fetch a higher price.
While more people have decided to pick up produce directly from local farms in recent years, they're not spending much there. Residents only spend $5.02 per person per year on food purchased from farm stands and farmers markets.
You can certainly taste the difference when it comes to local produce and it's often worth paying a bit more for local produce than you might pay at the supermarket. It's wonderful that local agriculture is making a strong comeback. We should all consider taking a little extra time, money and effort to support it and reap the many benefits of locally grown food. Supporting the farmers in our own community is a great way to "buy local" and ensure the availability of locally grown food for future generations.

I looked through the examples, and none of them do explicitly what I am looking for. I really need to be able to create a dropdown window appear on click. When I click a certain point on the graph, I need a dropdown box to appear allowing for different controls of the graph. The interactions config doesn't seem to offer a solution.

Bake up a perfectly pleasing Peppa Pig cake by following just three easy steps.
Weekdays on Nick Jr.
Spoon 2 tablespoons of vanilla frosting into a plastic resealable bag. Tint 1 cup of the vanilla frosting bright neon pink with the food coloring. Spoon the bright pink frosting into a pastry bag fitted with a large plain round tip. Tint 1/4 cup of the vanilla frosting pink with the food coloring. Spoon the pink frosting into a pastry bag fitted with a small plain round tip. Tint 3/4 cup of the vanilla frosting red with the red food coloring. Spoon 2 tablespoons of the red frosting into a plastic resealable bag. Tint the remaining vanilla frosting light pink.
Use the template to cut the cakes into pieces. Arrange the cake pieces on a serving platter and use some of the pink frosting to secure. Spread the red frosting over the bottom part of the cake to make Peppa's dress.
Spread the light pink frosting on top and sides of the remaining cake. Pipe the outline of the cake with the dark neon pink frosting. Snip a small corner from the bag and pipe two 1 1/2-inch circles with the vanilla frosting for her eyes on the top third of the cake. Pipe an outline of Peppa's eyes with the pink frosting. Pipe a 2 1/2 inch pink circle to make her cheek. Pipe her mouth and nostrils with the remaining bright neon pink frosting. Snip a small corner from the bag with the red frosting and pipe lines on top of the dress part of the cake. Use the black frosting to add the pupils in her eyes.

Using interfaces won't work because I want a single implementation. Using this solution would end in a lot of redundant code because I plan on having quite a few sub classes (composition vs inheritance). I've decided that a problem-specific design solution is what I'm looking for, and I can't think of anything elegant.
Basically I want classes to have separate properties, and for those properties to be attached at design time to any sub class I choose. Say, I have class 'ninja'. I would like to be able to make arbitrary sub classes such as 'grayNinja' where a gray ninja will always have a sword and throwing stars. Then possibly 'redNinja' who will always have a sword and a cape. Obviously swords, stars, and capes will each have their own implementation - and this is where I can't use interfaces. The closest solution I could find was the decorator pattern, but I don't want that functionality at runtime. Is the best solution an offshoot of that? Where inside the Black Ninja class constructor, I pass it through the constructors of sword and throwingStar? (those being abstract classes)
haven't coded in a while and reading hasn't gotten me too far - forgive me if the answer is simple.
Edit: Answered my own question. I can't mark it as 'answer' until tomorrow. Please let me know if there's a problem with it that I didn't catch. All the reading this problem forced me to do has been awesome. Learned quite a bit.

About Turley Wine Cellars
In May of 2000 Turley Wine Cellars purchased Pesenti Winery, which is located in Templeton, California, for the 80-year-old Zinfandel vines on the property. The sight of the old gnarled Zinfandel vines running down the steep slopes of this old vineyard attracted Larry Turley and Ehren Jordan to the Paso Robles area, which has been receiving more and more recognition as an up-and-coming wine region. The original winery now houses state-of- the-art winemaking equipment, the tasting room has had a face-lift and a tremendous amount of energy has been spent improving viticulture practices. This newly updated facility allows for natural winemaking techniques encouraging the intensely concentrated grapes to reveal their true character. Turley vineyard itself is an amazing site and perfect for the cultivation of Zinfandel. Planted on poor limestone soils with good drainage, the marine influence permits the grapes to stay on the vine for a longer period of time. Temperatures can drop significantly in the evenings and as a result the grapes ripen at a slower rate. Complex flavors and natural grape sugars are in perfect balance with the grape's acid levels. The resulting wines are deep in color, intense in flavor and full-bodied.
Fine Wine Merchant the Saratoga Wine Exchange has many vintages of Turley Wine Cellars & Vineyard wines (Zinfandel and pinot noir) in stock for immediate shipment.

Turley Wine Cellars Zinfandel: The Juvenile is a blend of Turley's youngest Zinfandel plantings in older vineyards from the Hayne, Moore, Duarte, Pesenti and Howell Mountain vineyards. The wine is a purple reddish hue and shows very classic Zinfandel aromas of plums, berries, jam and spice. Beautiful texture, with nicely balanced tannins and acidity. Delicious.
