The Spoleto Festival has just announced its 2011 line-up, and if you've never been before, this is definitely the summer to finally get off your duff and get to Charleston. At a time when many arts organizations have been forced to tighten their belts or even shutter shop, Spoleto has chosen a different path: expand and diversify.
Spoleto, in case you don't know, is the annual two-week performing arts festival kicking off Memorial Day weekend in Charleston, South Carolina, and now in its 35th year. For 17 days at the end of May and beginning of June, Charleston venues large and small are filled from morning to night with world-class theater, music, opera, dance and performance art. For sheer scope, magnitude and prestige, it is the top festival in the Southeast: There's not really even a close second. In past years, Spoleto has commissioned and premiered work by Tennessee Williams, Arthur Miller, Allen Ginsburg and Phillip Glass. It played a key role at the start of the careers of classical luminaries like Renée Flemming, Emanuel Ax, Joshua Bell, Yo-Yo Ma, the Emerson String Quartet and Jean-Yves Thibaudet, all of whom festival-goers saw when they were relative unknowns.
Charleston is just a six hour drive from Atlanta, so there really is no excuse for audiences here not to go check it out for a couple days. Although hotels in Charleston's toney downtown walking district can be pricey, hotels outside the city can be found in the $50-80 range and even less. And one of the nice things about Charleston (there are many) is that it's close to the beach, so savvy Atlanta Culture Surfers can plan a Memorial Day weekend vacation extravaganza: beach by day, world-class performances by night, all for just a few hundred dollars. (Recession!? What recession?)
The Spoleto line-up for 2011 is one of the largest and most ambitious yet. You can look over the complete schedule and buy tickets now at SpoletoUSA or check out the picks that have peaked our curiosity after the jump.
Musicians Dean Wareham and Britta Phillips, also known as Dean & Britta, will perform musical accompaniment to projections of Andy Warhol's famous silent screen-tests in 13 Most Beautiful...Songs for Andy Warhol's Screen Tests.
The gorgeous Dock Street Theater will be the venue for a revival of festival founder Gian Carlo Menotti's two-act opera The Medium. Other opera offerings include performances of Mozart's The Magic Flute and the American premiere of Kaija Saariaho's Émilie, starring renowned soprano Elizabeth Futral as the Enlightenment-era female scientist Émilie du Chatelet.
The Kneehigh Theater, which mounted popular productions of Tristan & Yseult and Don John at recent Spoleto festivals, returns with a modern take on Hans Christian Anderson's The Red Shoes. The Druid Theater of Dublin makes their festival debut with their award-winning production of the contemporary classic of Irish theater Martin McDonagh's The Cripple of Inishmaan. The gospel-music-infused retelling of the story of Oedipus Gospel at Colonus is already slated to become one of the hot tickets of 2011. Nuyorican poet Lemon Anderson offers a spare, no-holds-barred one-man show about his rough coming of age in the New York City projects in County of Kings: The Beautiful Struggle.
Dance offerings will include Spain's Corella Ballet, explorations of traditional Asian dance forms with both Shen Wei Dance Arts and Khmeropedies, and a solo performance by Jérôme Bel honoring the life and work of dancer Cédric Andrieux. Circa (pictured above) is an Australian troupe that brings a modern, deconstructing sensibility to circus acrobatics.
Add to that a full roster of classical music, including full-scale orchestral works and Spoleto's famous day-time chamber music series, plus performances by Bela Fleck and the Flecktones, jazz vocalists Dianne Reeves and Karrin Allyson.
And in case that's not enough, don't forget the events of Piccolo Spoleto—the smaller, more local, more family-oriented arts festival which has sprung up to run alongside Spoleto—which will announce its line-up of theater, dance, film, and visual arts later this year. It should make for a very busy and happy start to summer.

The cover of this book features some children walking in the woods at night in front of a burning cross and the story does not disappoint. Based in part on a journal her grandmother kept before being forced to leave school at a young age Stella by Starlight is...
Downton Abbey fans have been asked since season one to consider the lives of the Edwardian aristocracy and their servants. Yet only recently have we been exposed to another group of Edwardians: with the arrival of Sybbie, George, and Marigold, fans are now getting glimpses of the life of the Edwardian child. We see how they dress and the rules that govern their lives. Yet given the literary allusions throughout the series, some of us at the Children's Library wondered: what books might Sybbie, George, and Marigold have read?
At the Children's Library we love to answer questions. The tougher the nut, the more fun we have trying to crack it. Recently, we had a very specific request from a customer that really challenged our grey cells.
We're happy to announce that, starting in January, the ideaLAB will be hosting a CoderDojo, organized by some terrific partners in the community from SendGrid and Talent Lattice!
At the closing of every year, librarians throughout the Denver Public Library system collaborate on a list of their favorite children's and teen publications from that year. Whether you're looking for gift ideas or just a good recommendation to read, here are our suggestions, the best and brightest of 2014.
Browse the titles in our catalog.
Books for the Very Youngest:
I saw this book on an ALA list of books for young readers and the premise- a kid barbarian from another dimension comes to Earth and settles in a third grade class- is so original that I had to pick it up. I was not disappointed. Fangbone is witty...
GVR kids and teens snuck into the library two hours before it officially opened on Sunday, November 2. They were there to eat lots of pizza, play games and create magnificent structures in gamespace and real space (with Legos). Local teens Daniel, Raphael and Feven set up special Minecraft servers, and they also helped set out the Legos. Librarian Colleen brought out the Makey Makey and showed kids how to turn anything into a game controller.
Then the extreme gaming began: a game of tag so epic they're still talking about it!
The world's most notorious criminal is on the run, and we need help catching her! Join us Saturday, September 6 between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. in the Central Library Children's Pavilion for our Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego program. Kids can use their super sleuthing skills to decipher the clues about Carmen's whereabouts, and try to catch her before she steals the world's cities and landmarks!
With back-to-school in full effect, it's a fun time of the year for kids to read a novel from one of the most popular sub-genres of realistic fiction: school stories. Since children spend so much of their time in school, they tend to gravitate toward and readily identify with these types of stories, which typically involve a school setting and the activities of students and teachers as a main element of the plot.
Lots of daydreaming and imagining happens in the summer. It's a perfect time to wonder about all sorts of things like What If You Had Animal Hair!? or What If You Had Animal Teeth!? Or when you visit other places, do you ever wonder what it might be like to live there? If You Lived Here: Houses of the World gives you an idea of what it might be like to live in houses around the world.

Home > Press > llumina and Oxford Nanopore Enter into Broad Commercialization Agreement
Single-Molecule DNA Sequencing System Promises Dramatic Improvement in Cost, Speed, Versatility, and Simplicity of Sequencing
Illumina (NASDAQ:ILMN) and Oxford Nanopore Technologies ("Oxford Nanopore") today announced a strategic alliance including a commercialization agreement and equity investment. Under the terms of the commercialization agreement, Illumina will exclusively market, sell, distribute, and service BASE™ Technology products developed by Oxford Nanopore for DNA sequencing into the research and diagnostic markets on a worldwide basis. Illumina and Oxford Nanopore will share profits generated from sales.
Oxford Nanopore's new generation sequencing system uses protein nanopores coupled with a processive enzyme. This system is designed for direct electrical identification of DNA bases at the single-molecule level, without the need for fluorescent labels. Currently in development, this technology has the potential to provide substantial advantages over current sequencing approaches, not only in speed and cost but also in simplicity and versatility of overall workflow. The removal of the traditional fluorescent labeling step and reduced burden of sample preparation are highly desirable in future generations of sequencing technology.
As part of the agreement, Illumina made an equity investment of $18.0 million (Ł11.8 million), which will be used to accelerate the development of BASETM Technology. Illumina has also agreed to make an additional equity investment upon the achievement of a specific technical milestone.
"Oxford Nanopore's technology holds tremendous promise to achieve the sub-$1,000 human genome," said Jay Flatley, President and CEO of Illumina. "Making electrical measurements of unmodified DNA removes the need for complex sample prep and the high-performance optics found in today's sequencing systems. We look forward to a long and productive partnership with Oxford Nanopore."
Oxford Nanopore's CEO, Dr Gordon Sanghera commented, "This alliance brings together today's commercial leader in the field and what we believe will be the future's best sequencing technology. The agreement reflects the rapid progress we have made in developing nanopore technology towards being the first label-free, single-molecule sequencing system. The partnership will enable us to further accelerate our development and enable broad commercialization through Illumina's significant commercial infrastructure."

About Oxford Nanopore Technologies Ltd
Oxford Nanopore was founded in 2005 on the science of Professor Hagan Bayley of the University of Oxford. Since its inception, the Company has focused on developing the pioneering work of Professor Bayley into a mass producible biochip and reader system for molecular analysis. Nanopores have been researched for more than 15 years at a number of the world's most prestigious academic institutions including Harvard, MIT, NIST, the University of Massachusetts, Texas A&M University, and the University of Oxford.
BASETM (Bayley Sequencing) technology uses an adapted protein nanopore coupled with a processive exonuclease enzyme to sequence DNA. The enzyme cleaves individual bases from a strand of DNA, and sequentially introduces the bases into the aperture of the nanopore. An ionic current is continually flowing through the nanopore, and as individual bases travel through the nanopore, each one creates a characteristic disruption in this current. This signal is recorded electronically and interpreted to identify the DNA base. Recordings from multiple channels in parallel allows high-throughput sequencing of DNA.
The technology is label-free and sensitive at the single-molecule level, meaning that it removes the need for fluorescent labels, optical imaging and instrumentation, and the need for complex sample preparation including DNA amplification. By scaling up into a massively parallel sequencing process on an array chip, this method has the potential to deliver dramatic improvements in cost, speed, simplicity and versatility of sequencing.

About zampaz
My name is Sean, I'm 54 and live in Winchester VA. I'm a former Scientist, Engineer, Database Architect and Project Manager. Learning to write sci-fi
By: zampaz , 5:54 PM GMT on July 06, 2013
Edit: My original post was too harsh and judgmental.
I'm learning a lot on Dr. Roods blog about communicating climate science.
Doubt mongers concentrate on the idea that there is nothing absolute in science.
From the AGU Chapman conference on Communicating Climate Science it occurred to me that you can't use scientific argument to defend a position against with non-scientists.
There are those that mistrust science as it conflicts with their cherished origin of their worldview paradigm: The Bible, The Koran. They would sooner be burned alive than betray their core beliefs. Seriously. Think about that.
For some perhaps "belief" is much more than a strongly held opinion. Many believe in an "Absolute Truth and see the world in terms of absolutes instead of a function approaching a value.
The doubt mongers know this and prey upon a common misunderstanding of the skepticism that is a basis of science.
You can't argue a dogmatic ideology worldview using science.
If you take the tools of science away, all that is left is a way of analytical thinking and common basic emotions. Scientists aren't used to communicating in terms of emotion.
The doubt mongers capitalize on this.
From the Chapman conference I learned:

Skip to comments.Which is best - Firefox, IE or other?
Posted on 02/03/2010 8:35:01 AM PST by Former MSM Viewer
Im getting tired of the errors and such on my IE browser. I hear Firefox is good...
Any comments would be appreciated.
I use firefox and love it.
Do it.
You won't be sorry.
Firefox is excellent. You can also get rid of Adobe. Foxit is faster and better PDF reader.
What operating system are you using? In Vista, most stuff sucks.
IE is the preferred browser of hackers and virus planters because of percentage of use and knowledge base.
I've been using Firefox for more than a year and have not had any problems.
Firefox. Love it!
Guess I'm an IE luddite. I have Firefox and Google chrome on the computer but stick with what I know best.
i've used firefox since the beginning,
but now dislike it.
the last 3 versions on win 7 crash.
I like Firefox, although lately, it seems to crash more than it used to. I also have Opera and I'm really liking it.
2 computers...Vista on one (it sux)
and XP on the other...
Firefox is more user friendly and has less "issues", IMO
Firefox is great, and customizable. But it's a bit of a memory hog; I run 3gigs DDR2.
I use them both at the same time. IE is slower and locks up.
First off, DUMP WINDOWS, Install Linux, I prefer Ubuntu. Never ever use IE, only use Mozilla Firefox, Use Mozilla Thunderbird for Email also, 95% to 100% of all your Computer problems will disappear immediately. If you absolutely have to use winblows then install Virtual Box (free) and then only use winblows for the programs you absolutely have to use it for. You will not be Disappointed.
Another vote for firefox.
not knowing anything about Firefox, am i to assume it is complete with all the necessary add-ons one would need to use?
FRiend, I've been running Firefox for years, and trust it. Although, some of the other posters are correct; newer versions are using more memory, and are crashing more often...still, it beats IE by a ton. Also, take a look at Opera and Google Chrome. I don't trust google, so I don't use it but I have many friends who do and like it.
"But its a bit of a memory hog" that is a WINDOWS Problem not Firefox
I love Firefox, especially the addons like Noscript and Adblock.
I can block all the annoying ads that flash and distract and take time loading.
After I switched to Firefox about 7 years ago, I stopped getting viruses and spyware. That pretty much sums it up.
I own GOOG stock, but dont trust it with MY email...scary company
On Windows and Linux, I use Firefox, and it seems to do a fine job.
Google Chrome is out there, but I just can't get past Google's outright, contractual censorship in China, probable censorship / biasing here in the US, sickening slobbering love for Obama, and general growing omnipotence on the web. (Don't get me wrong, Apple isn't great either, it's a matter of degree.) I hope others pick on on the technical innovations introduced in Chrome, though.
I've tried Firefox a couple time, and go back to IE because of those sites that are IE dependent and can't run on Firefox.
You can easily try Firefox and go back to IE if you don't like it.
As for safer, depends on whether you're savvy enough to turn off Java and install the Adblock Plus and Noscript addons.
Each browser has advantages and risks depending on how they are used None of them is any safer than another despite the anti-MS propaganda. For some types of web based applications Firefox works better, for others IE works best. For browsing IE, Firefox Chrome, Opera will work well and each has their specific features that some like and others don't. Having multiple browsers available on the desktop is not a bad idea.
Firefox, Safari, Opera and Chrome are all pretty good. Among them it's more a matter of personal preference or a specific feature set you want (like the large plug-in availability in Firefox).
IE 8 is better than earlier, but still not up to the other browsers.
I'm running version 3.5.7 now... so far, no problems.
Yet another vote for Firefox, which I'm using at the moment, although I also have Opera on one box and Chrome on another. Opera has a couple of nice features - its zoom feature for when old eyes are trying to make sense out of a netbook-sized display, for one, not that the others don't support something similar. Chrome seems faster on older hardware. I do keep IE around for those few holdout websites that require it. It's one of those things I just can't get very passionate about. IE's good enough for most things and you're going to be patching anyway if you're running Windows.
Some versions of Firefox will create more headaches than they solve. If you find a good version, don't be quick to update it, as new versions can create havoc. Be sure to do a system back-up before even minor Firefox version upgrades.
I've used Firefox for about 4 years. I use an IE6-based tabbed browser for FR, but use Firefox for most everything else. Firefox has some neat add-ons/extensions. You can built/add on stuff to Firefox.
Firefox has always had a problem of consuming system resources. Current versions aren't as bad as older ones. Ver 0.7 to 1.5 were horrible. The current ones (ver 3.5 range) still are resource hogs, especially with videos and heavy graphics, as it does not release memory when a tab is closed. Firefox teams blame the extensions, but the problem is inherent in the Firefox code.
I tried IE7 and dumped it immediately. I didn't like it at all. I have some add-on features that work with IE6 and those features are not available for IE7 or IE8. I haven't tried IE8.
For quick browsing, such as short videos, I use a browser called QtWeb. That way, I don't have Firefox consuming memory. http://www.qtweb.net
That's incorrect. Each application is responsible for releasing the memory it used when the application is closed. It is ALWAYS an application problem not a Windows problem. (not a fanboy, just a programmer)
I run firefox on Vista no problems, I run Seamonkey on an XP box, Seamonkey is a Mozilla Clone of Netscape.
I used Firefox for years, until Google Chrome came out. Chrome is great! Give it a shot.
I wasn't aware of that, but it makes sense. Microsoft is the king of bloatware.
FreeRepublic loads faster on my machine under Opera than Firefox. Go figure
Been with Mozilla Fire-Fox since the beginning, that along with Trend-Micro for virus protection has kept me out for trouble free for years ...
I have an older computer. I love Opera, it comes up within 30 seconds, IE and FF are several minutes, and it surfs very fast like you said. Cache doesn't build up as fast either so that the hard drive doesn't grind so much.
I've used Firefox for years and don't miss M$'s Internut Exploder at all.
It works great on XP and it works great on Ubuntu Linux. I can't give an informed opinion on Vista or W7, since I refused to subject myself to the Vista disaster and I'm happy enough with XP that I don't see any reason to spend money on Win7.
Then again, I have XP and Ubuntu dual-booted on my desktop computer. It takes XP about 3 1/2 minutes to boot and load virus scan, background processes, etc. before I can actually use it. Ubuntu takes 42 seconds, including the 5 second GRUB bootloader delay.
Chrome is great. And now it has lots of cool extensions! https://chrome.google.com/extensions
I use Firefox exclusively including on my Mac. Firefox also has a library of very useful add-ons..small free applications that do everything from give you world time to enhance your browsing security. Once you try it you will never want to use IE again.
I started using firefox a couple years ago. At the time I was running Adaware daily and constantly cleaning my computer. Three months after installing Firefox I removed Adaware from my computer. I didn't need it.
that said, You have to close down Firefox from time to time. Since I started using it at work I noticed my computer slowing down. One time I went to task manager and noticed firefox was using over 700 meg of ram. Interestingly, when I closed it it freed up 1.2 gig of ram. It seems like a memory leak thing.
And when I went home the same day and closed firefox and reopened it, I noticed my home computer ran significantly faster than it used to.
I close firefox when I'm not using it now.
This has caused my to give Chrome a looksee, but I still really like Firefox. IE is completely out of the picture now.
I use IE at work and firefox at home. firefox has had a huge increase in crashes the past couple of months. So far, IE in Windows 7 is working quite well (much better than before).
I've heard that IE is more "integrated" with windows and has access to places Firefox does not. That means that if someone can exploit it, they can get into more sensitive places in your computer and do more damage.
Is this anything you've heard about?
Haven't used IE in... year(s?).
I like Firefox (and the NoScript add-on is a must have. It's fantastic.)
Wife likes Chrome.
Try them both and see which one you prefer.
Anything will be an improvement.

Rose-scented geranium, Pelargonium spp., essential oils from the cultivars 'Bourbon', 'China', 'Egypt', 'Rober's Lemon Rose' and 'Frensham' were analyzed by GC-FID and GC-MS. A total of 136 compounds were identified from five essential oils, constituting 85.5–99.7% of the oils. Essential oils and pure compounds were evaluated for their insecticidal activity against Stephanitis pyrioides and larvicidal and biting deterrent activity against Aedes aegypti.
All five geranium oils were toxic to S. pyrioides, and four of these five were more potent than malathion and neem. Trans-nerolidol (LD50 = 13.4 ppm) was the most toxic compound against one-day-old Ae. aegypti larvae, followed by geraniol (49.3 ppm), citronellol (49.9 ppm) and geranyl formate (58.5 ppm). Essential oil of cultivar 'Egypt' at 100 μg cm−2 [biting deterrent index (BDI) = 0.8] showed the highest biting deterrent activity, followed by cultivars 'Frensham' (BDI = 0.76), 'China' (BDI = 0.72), 'Rober's Lemon Rose' (BDI = 0.63) and 'Bourbon' (BDI = 0.45) essential oils. Among the pure compounds, the biting deterrent activity of geranic acid (BDI = 0.99) was not significantly different from that of N,N-diethyl-m-toluamide (DEET).
Essential oils and pure compounds showed insecticidal activity against S. pyrioides and Ae. aegypti. The high biting deterrent activity of geranic acid points to the need for further research. © 2013 Society of Chemical Industry

Understanding the Steam Heat System
As the term indicates, a steam heat system is a way of providing a heating system to a house or building by way of steam. While steam heating was once very popular, a lot of newer systems have emerged of late. Still, there are two things about steam heating that make it advantageous compared to modern heating systems – it is more reliable and it is so much easier to maintain.
Moreover, upgrading a heating system can be very expensive and complex. If you own a building that counts on a steam heating system and you don't plan on upgrading, you simply need to understand how it operates and how to fix any problems.
Fundamentals of a Steam Heat System
A steam heating system has four key components, including a water boiler and heater, along with pipes and convectors/radiators. The system works in a pretty straightforward manner. The boiler turns the water into steam by applying heat to it. This steam then goes down the pipes and into the radiators and/or convectors in every room. This is how the steam heat is spread throughout a building. As the energy spreads out, the steam cools down and reverts back to water, which the boiler heats again.
Heating the Boiler
The boiler can be heated by the burner in various ways. Usually, oil, electricity or natural gas is used. Boilers heated by electricity are generally more expensive to operate than those that are heated by gas or oil. However, they are also way easier to maintain and don't become as damaged as the other two when they actually break. Electrically heated boilers can be seen in larger buildings, while boilers that run on gas or heat are more common in homes and smaller buildings.
Radiators Against Convectors
Radiators in a steam heat system transfer heat through fully exposed pipes. Convectors, on the other hand, are heating devices in a set up where there is partial shielding of the pipes that move heat. Convectors and radiators are made in different shapes and sizes, and convectors are generally safer to touch because they are cooler than radiators. Still, extreme care is necessary when handling either.
How to Maintain a Steam Heat System
While steam heating systems are relatively low maintenance, they do need to be maintained regularly to keep them in good shape. A qualified service professional should come to check the system at least once every twelve months.
The user can manage the system's day-to-day care needs. This includes, for example, watching the boiler's water level and pressure gauges. A water level too low means the boiler will just keep increasing its temperature, but the building won't actually be heated. Water must be added as soon as possible. If the pressure level is too higher, the danger could explode. To make the pressure drop back to normal, the air valves can be temporarily loosened. Lastly, the air valves should also be oiled every now and then.

Latest Headlines
Qualcomm, Huawei Wireless, Cisco, Aruba, Broadcom and Quantenna are just a few of the companies throwing their support behind the next wave in Wi-Fi, appropriately called "wave 2" features that more efficiently handle high-bandwidth applications.
Qualcomm was first to market with 802.11ac Wave 2 for the enterprise, and now it's getting out in front with a new family of tri-radio 802.11ac platforms designed for home networks. Qualcomm made the tri-radio announcement at the Computex 2016 trade show in Taipei, Taiwan.
With support in more than 60 client devices and more than 25 routers, the 802.11ac Wave 2 Wi-Fi standard is gaining traction and will become the highest shipping Wi-Fi standard yet, according to Strategy Analytics.
Two of Netscout Systems' devices will see Wi-Fi functionality upgrades for better compatibility with the 802.11ac standard. The Fluke Networks Enterprise Solution OptiView XG Network Analysis Tablet and the OneTouch AT Generation 2 Network Assistant, which Netscout says are two of its business arm's most popular network analysis tools, are currently rolling out the upgrade.
PCTEL recently introduced new compact panel antennas to its VenU line of broadcast access products. The new antennas offer 3-port and 4-port MIMO options, which support "dual-band coverage for high-speed 802.11ac Wi-Fi networks covering both 2.4-2.5 GHz and 4.9-5.9 GHz on each port."
Ruckus Wireless has announced the ZoneFlex P300 bridge system, an outdoor Smart Wi-Fi bridging system. The ZoneFlex P300 was designed for high-density user environments such as business parks, school campuses, urban centers, warehouses and other outdoor venues.
In-flight Wi-Fi may have gotten a boost with embedded computing technology company Kontron's Cab-n-Connect, an A100 cabin wireless access point (CWAP) that the company says improves bandwidth efficiency and security.
Ruckus Wireless is trying to stir up the Wi-Fi industry with the introduction of what it claims is the industry's first Wi-Fi access point based on Wave 2 features of the 802.11ac standard, enabling multi-gigabit Wi-Fi performance and "unprecedented" capacity.
Qualcomm Atheros is doing its part of make better use of Wi-Fi spectrum with multi-user (MU), multiple input-multiple output (MIMO) technology. Expanding on its portfolio of 802.11ac 2.0 capable chips, the company is introducing the QCA9377, which extends the performance benefits of Qualcomm's branded MU|EFX technology to notebooks, TVs, cameras and other consumer electronics that are connected to crowded Wi-Fi networks.
Mobile operators offloading their data traffic to Wi-Fi need the latest and greatest testing and monitoring solutions to ensure the Wi-Fi networks being used meet carrier-grade quality requirements, and that will drive continued growth in the market for Wi-Fi test equipment, according to a new study from Frost & Sullivan.

I'm building an app with Netbeans GUI Builder, and I want the main JFrame to be maximised, so have set:
However, Netbeans calls pack() which results in the JFrame size being reduced. I know I can use the above code again after pack() has been called, but is there anyway I can prevent Netbeans from inserting the pack() line so I can keep my code a bit cleaner?
(Netbeans puts its pack() line in a block that you can't edit, so I can't simply remove it in the usual manner.)

Two fireboats, one from Tacoma Fire Department and one from Anderson Island, were dispatched to the scene, off the northwest tip of McNeil Island, at about 6:40 p.m. Saturday.
Initial reports were that two people had fallen into the water after a 14-foot skiff capsized.
The two fireboats conducted a parallel search, and after about 10 minutes they found one of the victims in the water, clinging to the capsized skiff.
That person was pulled from the water and taken to shore.
The second person from the skiff was able to swim to shore and was found safe on the beach, fire officials said.
Both victims are expected to be OK.

We are available 24-7 to offer support and answer any queries you may have.
How to choose a Crane Hire Melbourne Service: A Definitive Guide
There are many crane hire services in and around Melbourne, but how do you decide which one of these will be suitable? There are several questions you need to have answered to make an informed decision. This will avoid any major issues down the line. If you ask these few questions they will give you a better idea on what will be suitable for your project.
It would be wise to look into how long the company has been in business, as this gives an indication of quality. Look at some reviews and comments about the company online in order decide if the reputation matches their experience.
Do they have what you need? It is a wise idea to find a company which has a wide selection of crane equipment, as it increases the chances that they have exactly what you need to accommodate for your construction project. Better to work to the project, than to work around a piece of equipment which isn't quite suitable. This helps to avoid any nasty surprises down the line. Furthermore, if there is a mistake of some sort, it is easily rectified by efficiently replacing the equipment with something more suitable. If they have experts, they will advise you on exactly what you need.
What is their safety record? Ask for it. This is important, as a reputable company will more than likely have the policy of "safety first". All crane operators will have a full licence for the piece of machinery they are operating as a legal requirement in Melbourne and Victoria. To put yourself at ease, it may be an idea to ask for evidence of this if unsure. For the crane you are considering to hire, its wise to look for the latest model, and consider age to minimise risk of an accident. Be sure to ask the provider for a servicing and maintenance record. Ensure you know the crane has been manufactured following safety standards. Do not compromise on the crane you need.
