The Front Porch: When strangers knock, divergent instincts put to test
First came Jean, crying and shaking, who said she was having a nervous breakdown and asked for a hug, and I figured, Well, OK. I didn't know her – I didn't even know how'd she'd gotten into my building – and I didn't know how she picked my door to knock on.
She sat on my couch awhile, and we watched a bit of "General Hospital" and talked about her life and my life – she'd recently lost a couple of jobs – and I left her there as I went to get ready for my night shift. I hoped she wouldn't steal anything while I was in the shower, and if she did, it would be something I had two of.
While I was in the shower, my brother came home and took Jean to her home, which turned out to be in a brick building around a downtown corner from our brick building. "Who was that lady?" my brother asked. This was about three years ago. She didn't steal anything.
Next came a woman whose name I don't remember, even though her visit was more recent – last fall. She walked up to my door on a late afternoon and knocked, but by the time I answered it, she was walking away. I called to her as she crossed the street. She turned around and said, like Jean with tears on the edge of her voice, that she was very cold. She was shaking. She asked if I could help her.
She came in and sat on my couch – different home, different neighborhood, same couch. We mostly talked about her life. She said she had a degree in psychology. She said she had grown children. She said she had a boyfriend who'd wronged her, and I don't remember exactly how, but it had something to do with money. She cried a lot.
She said she didn't want to go back to the psychiatric ward, but she called it something else – "Ward 9," I think – and she laughed at me a little when I asked her what that was. She eyed me sideways like I was a nitwit. She said she had a sister in town, and she gave me the sister's phone number.
The sister sighed a lot on the phone and said, "I'm sorry you have to deal with this." "I'll call you back," said the sister, but she didn't. We went outside and stood on the porch so the woman could smoke and looked at my neighbors' houses. I asked her how long she'd been homeless, and she held up four fingers.
She took off across the yard when my boyfriend's car pulled into the driveway. "It's OK," I called after her. "He's pretty nice." She was gone.
Last week came a man with long brown hair, who informed me that the length of his hair had nothing to do with alcoholism. "I haven't had a drink in 19 years," he said.
He stood back from the door. He was thin and fair-skinned. He looked me in the eye but held himself shyly – head low, peering out from behind his bangs. He wanted to rake the yard or wash the windows. He wanted five or six dollars. He wanted to get something to eat, he hoped within two hours.
I told him I didn't want him to perform any labor but I'd get him a couple of bucks if he waited on the porch, and he did and I did. He looked disappointed.
During each of these incidents I was alert and wary, but I tried to keep any hint of distrust off my face. After each of these incidents, I felt mildly relieved not to have been robbed, or worse.
This week I called the House of Charity to see how the professionals handle these situations.
"If I don't know the person, I don't answer the door," said James Landry, operations coordinator. "If I'm not expecting anybody I don't answer the door. It's just a basic safety issue."
Yeah, I know.
"You have to be aware that because someone is telling you something, you don't know that that's true," Landry said. "I hate to say that, to be that way about it, but that's the way it is."
Yeah, I know.
"I would caution you against letting somebody in your house," Landry said.
Yeah. Jean was casing my apartment. The cold woman was looking for cash to snatch. The long-haired man had a knife. These are all possibilities.
My instincts told me none of these people intended to harm me. And yet: I work at a newspaper, where I read an inordinate number of stories about things that happen to people who agree to mail mysterious packages to people they've never heard of, who give rides to bedraggled hikers, who open their doors to strangers. These things happen so often that they often warrant just a few paragraphs or don't make the paper at all.
For those three people, I thought I'd done the right thing – chosen to trust in the face of need, my instincts dependable. Or maybe I've just been lucky.

Utah Utes football: Aaron Sharp switches commitment to Kansas State a day after committing to U.
SALT LAKE CITY — Less than 24 hours after verbally committing to the University of Utah, Texas high school quarterback Aaron Sharp announced his intention Saturday to enroll at Kansas State.
Sharp, a 6-foot-3 three-star prospect out of Houston, is considered to be one of the top dual-threat quarterbacks in the 2014 high school recruiting class. As a junior he threw for 2,954 yards and 38 touchdowns. He also placed first in the 200-meter dash during the state track meet with a time of 21.19.
Sharp originally announced his commitment to the Utes via Twitter while holding offers from Kansas State, Baylor, Arizona State, Houston and Mississippi State.
Utah still remains relatively comfortable at the quarterback position, with sophomore Travis Wilson entering fall camp as the starter along with freshmen Connor Manning and Brandon Cox waiting in the wings.
This is a developing story and will be updated as more information becomes available.

The is a American style resort hotel - large, spacious, comfortable and functional. It has a large pool and hot spring Jacuzzi by the side of the pool. It worked well especially during winter where you can have your natural hot and cold deep by the pool area. The pool garden is nice with lots of mature trees and plant. The rooms are equally large, well equipped and have large balconies. Service staff tried hard and we appreciate the effort though some of the younger staff need a little more coaching. What can be improved are: 1. The breakfast cafe is too crowded and usually need to queue for table. 2. Transportation to the city is a little inconvenient as taxi are reluctant to travel to this part of town unless they are dropping off passenger. So usually had to wait for taxi or to pay a little extra to advance book one. All in all, we are very happy with our stay. Is one of those hotel to help you get away and just want to relax in your own private space.

Given that the key months of January, February and March are in the 6.40 area, I would think that SJT can live with a decline in the near months with minimal, if any, erosion. If the winter months went below 6.00, I'd start getting worried.
Also we should remember that yes, while NG is in a significant bearish cycle that we are coming off of very high levels.But weakness is weakness, and since I'm a trend guy I must admit that I couldn't be a NG bull at the moment.But as long as the chart holds up in SJT plus dividends are still reasonable, I'm a happy guy.DD

BBC Review
Thirty-eight tracks that serve to summarise the OGWT ethos.
Mike Diver 2010
Compiled by Bob Harris, Radio 2 DJ and presenter of the show it celebrates, The Old Grey Whistle Test features 38 tracks spanning both years (it was first broadcast in 1971) and genres, with one significant fact connecting the myriad dots: all appeared on the 'other' music television show of the 70s and 80s, the one that went against the Top of the Pops grain.
Not that there weren't plenty of parallels between the artists the two BBC-broadcast shows would cover, but the assembled cast on this release does paint a not-wholly-accurate picture of an era dominated by album artists, one-hit wonders the preserve of the chart-following crowd. Here Tom Waits can be heard croaking from the depths of his alcoholism on the achingly beautiful Tom Traubert's Blues, immediately before prog-rock titans Yes settle their bombast down for the four minutes of synthesised tootles and mystical warbles that is Wonderous Stories. Contrasts like this illustrate what The Old Grey Whistle Test was about: putting the best music, whatever its form, into the living rooms of the limited-to-three-channels public.
Presented as the first part of a series of OGWT collections, this double-disc release does slip up in not featuring more recordings from the show itself. Only two tracks – Patti Smith's Because the Night (a co-write with Bruce Springsteen, originally appearing on 1978's Easter) and Al Stewart's Year of the Cat – are presented as live-on-the-BBC versions. Hopefully further sets will include more like these, assembled in a manner akin to the various Later… compilations. Also, despite press release mention of the likes of Led Zeppelin, Curtis Mayfield and The Eagles appearing on the OGWT, not one of them does here. But perhaps it's good to keep a few big guns in reserve, in line for volume two.
It's sad – really, really sad – that there is no obvious equivalent to The Old Grey Whistle Test on television today. But perhaps a contemporary take on the show could yet present itself. Fingers crossed, or else what will this generation's children rely upon for their televised musical education? Have you watched any of the freely broadcast music channels lately? Terrifying.

ALIAPOULIOS, D.D.S., Theofelos A., known to most of his family and friends as "Steve", went home to be with the Lord after a short illness on July 31, 2013.
He is survived by his wife, Donna (nee Swyers), of 59 years; his two children, Mark Aliapoulios and Cynthia Thompson and their spouses, Kimberlee Aliapoulios and Tim Thompson; as well as his nine grandchildren, Clara, Colin and Clark Aliapoulios, Hunter, Howard, and Harrison Thompson and Samuel, Rachel and Paul Beresford.
Born in Manchester, NH on May 3, 1927, he graduated from Central High School before attending the University of New Hampshire for two years. After two years with the US Air Force as a Medical Administrative Specialist, he returned to University of New Hampshire to earn his BS degree in Zoology. His DDS is from the Temple University School of Dentistry in Philadelphia, PA, where he met his wife Donna Swyers, a young dental hygiene student.He was a member of Delta Sigma Delta and the Phi Omega honorary fraternity and graduated 5th in his class.
Steve and Donna settled in West Palm Beach and opened a dental practice spanning some six decades. He was still seeing patients right up to his last day.
Over the past 59 years, Dr. Aliapoulios has been active in both the Florida Dental Society and its local chapter, serving as chairman of the Council on Dental Health for the State of Florida; aide-de-camp to Lou Atkins, President of the Florida Dental Association; and serving as part of the cleft palate study group, working with cleft palate patients. He was on the staffs of both the Good Samaritan Hospital and the St. Mary's Hospital in West Palm Beach. Dr. "A", as he was often called, was a member of Rotary International and had perfect attendance at weekly meetings for almost sixty years.
His name is almost synonymous with Barbershop Harmony here in Palm Beach County where he was the Assistant Director of The Coastmen Chorus as well as the bass in several barbershop quartets over the years. In addition, he has been the Choir Director at St. Catherine's Greek Orthodox Church since 1979, has sung in the professional choir of The Episcopal Church of Bethesda-by-the-Sea in Palm Beach and more recently been a member of The Choral Society of the Palm Beaches.
His broad smile, booming voice and infectious laughter will be sorely missed by loved ones around the world. Friends may visit with the family between the hours of 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM on Sunday, August 4, 2013 at QUATTLEBAUM FUNERAL HOME, 1201 South Olive Avenue, West Palm Beach, with a Trisagion Service to be held at 7:00 PM. A Service in Celebration of his life will be held at 2:00 PM on Saturday, August 17, 2013. at Bethesda-by-the-Sea, 141 S. County Rd., Palm Beach.
"I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth." 3 John 4. QUATTLEBAUM FUNERAL HOME
He & his wife, Donna traveled extensively. Never slowed down and were always there anytime help was needed.
Uncle Steve was forever patient & generous. In my youth, I was the worst [& hysterical] dental patient ever! Yet Uncle Steve never lost his temper or yelled or indicated in anyway that I was horrible.
The world is much sadder without him.

Police said suspects were extorting money from other stall owners in Kalyani Nagar area for the past one year but no complaint was filed
The city police on Tuesday arrested two goons who allegedly threatened the son of former mayor Mohansingh Rajpal and demanded hafta of Rs 9,000 every month for operating fast-food stalls in Kalyani Nagar. For the past one year, the goons had been threatening other stall owners in the area and collecting hafta. But there was no complaint and apparently no police action against them.
The law caught up with them when they threatened and demanded hafta from former mayor's son Jagatsingh Rajpal. Jagatsingh filed a complaint against the goons at the anti-extortion cell of Pune police crime branch.
Police team led by inspector Sachin Sawant arrested the goons identified as Mahadev Eknath Shinde (38) of Mahadev Nagar and his aide Manoj Indrachand Jedia (33) of Yerawada on Tuesday. The police also paraded the duo in some areas of Kalyani Nagar to allay apprehension of stall owners.
Inspector Sawant said both Shinde and Jedia were historysheeters. "Both have cases of attempt to murder and rioting against their names. We have seized a car, two cellphones, a knife and a baseball stick from the suspects," said Sawant.
Police said on January 20, Shinde and Jedia allegedly threatened Jagatsingh at his fast food stalls near Life Style building in Kalyani Nagar. The suspects said they would damage Jagatsingh's van if he does not give them Rs 9,000 every month.
Police said the suspects had been extorting Rs 2,000 and more from other stall owners in the area. The stall owners never filed any complaint against them as they were afraid. Police have arrested the duo under Sections 387, 34 of the Indian Penal Code.

Erica and pine removal
Pinus radiata has been known to spread rapidly into bushland areas. These trees provide little in the way of food or shelter for the native wildlife. Because the leaves or needles that collect under the trees are highly acidic they inhibit the growth of native vegetation. Wildcare Deslacs has been removing mature trees and seedlings from the Cape Deslacs Nature Reserve.

I'm having a problem with uploading files in the media section of Umbraco. I'm not sure if the problem is size related as I don't get an error that give too much details but I'll explain what I've done so far and see if you can help.
I've added:
<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="102400" executionTimeout="3600"/>
to the web.config within the tag
I've added the same httpRuntime tag to the servers default web.config restarted all the app pools for the websites and the problems still persists.
The error I receive when I try to upload files is:
Explanation: The request timed out before the page could be retrieved. Technical Information (for support personnel)
* Error Code 64: Host not available
* Background: The gateway or proxy server lost connection to the Web server.
* Date: 10/8/2009 4:27:46 PM
* Server: SERVER.XXXXX

The odd thing about the problem is that it does not only happen on files over the magic 4mb file size. It seems to happen on any files uploaded above about 1mb.
Any help much appreciated.

Hello all. Wanted to see if any of the studs here could clue me into how I might go about embedding an audio file into a webpage. I have had luck in the past using a .wma file with the Windows Media Player control panel, but I would like to create a file that simply plays when the page is loaded. If at all possible this audio would stream and the player controls would be hidden.
Any ideas are welcome. Thanks in advance for your time.

HML, a lectin from the red marine alga Hypnea musciformis, defines a novel lectin family. Orthorhombic crystals of HML belonging to space group P212121 grew within three weeks at 293 K using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. A complete data set was collected at 2.4 Å resolution. HML is the first marine alga lectin to be crystallized.
The recognition of carbohydrates by proteins underlies key cellular processes such as cell communication, host defence, fertilization, development, parasitic infection and tumour metastasis. Lectins are the carbohydrate-binding proteins of non-immune origin found in all types of living organisms that decipher the glycocodes encoded in the structure of glycans attached to soluble and integral cell-membrane glycoconjugates (Gabius & Gabius, 1997 ). Mechanisms for sugar recognition in microorganisms, plants and animals have evolved independently in diverse protein frameworks (Elgavish & Shaanan, 1997 ). The largest and best characterized lectin family is that from terrestrial plants and accumulating evidence indicates that the vast majority of these lectins can be classified into four large and three small families of structurally and evolutionary related proteins (Van Damme et al., 1998 ; see also the 3D Lectin Database at http://webenligne.cermav.cnrs.fr/lectines/). The molecular structure and functional features of an increasing number of terrestrial plant lectins have been reported (Loris, 2002 ). However, and in marked contrast to higher land plant lectins, marine algal lectins have been isolated and characterized at a much lower pace since the first report of haemagglutinating activity in these organisms appeared more than 35 y ago (Boyd et al., 1966 ). Moreover, to date biochemical and structural information on algal lectins is scarce and is available from only a few species, mainly owing to difficulties in their isolation and in obtaining sufficient material for study. Therefore, the functional and phylogenetic classification of these lectins remains obscure.
The available biochemical information indicates the existence of lectins belonging to different protein families in marine algae such as the green algae Enteromorpha prolifera (Ambrosio et al., 2003 ) and Ulva pertusa (Wang et al., 2004 ), the red marine algae Bryothamnion triquetrum (Calvete et al., 2000 ), Hypnea japonica (Hori et al., 2000 ), H. musciformis and H. cervicornis (Nagano et al., 2005 ) and species of the genera Eucheuma (Kawakubo et al., 1999 ) and Ptilota (Sampaio et al., 1998 , 1999 , 2002 ). Moreover, the complete amino-acid sequences of only six algal lectins have been determined (BTL, Calvete et al., 2000 ; HJA1 and HJA2, Hori et al., 2000 ; UPL1, Wang et al., 2004 ; HML and HCA, Nagano et al., 2005 ) (Fig. 1 ).
HML (9357 ± 1 Da), a lectin isolated from the red marine alga H. musciformis, consists of a mixture of a 90-residue polypeptide containing seven intrachain disulfide bonds and two disulfide-bonded fragments generated by cleavage at the bond Arg50–Glu51 (Nagano et al., 2005 ) (Fig. 1 ). The N-terminal (residues 1–47) and C-terminal (residues 48–90) fragments exhibit a large sequence similarity (Fig. 1 ) and HML can thus be regarded as a mixture of a single chain with internal homology and a two-chain protein of homologous polypeptides (Nagano et al., 2005 ). HML exhibits neither discernible amino-acid sequence similarity with nor the cysteine-spacing pattern found in any other known protein structure, strongly indicating that HML belongs to a novel protein (lectin) family (Nagano et al., 2005 ). The high cysteine (disulfide bond) content of HML is an unusual feature for lectin structures. Of the plant lectins, the only other known example of cysteine-rich proteins are the chitin-binding lectins, which are made up of hevein domains (Van Damme et al., 1998 ). Here, we report the first crystallization and the preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis from a marine alga lectin.
Specimens of the red alga H. musciformis were collected on Pacheco beach on the Atlantic coast of the Ceará State of Brazil. HML was purified as described by Nagano et al. (2005 ) and its purity was assessed by SDS–PAGE and MALDI–TOF mass spectrometry [using an Applied Biosystems Voyager DE-PRO instrument operating at 25 kV accelerating voltage in the linear mode, with 3,5-dimethoxy-4-hydroxycinnamic acid (sinapinic acid) saturated in 70% acetonitrile and 0.1% TFA used as the matrix].
The apparent molecular mass of the HML in solutions of different pH was determined by analytical ultracentrifugation at 293 K in a Beckman XL-A centrifuge with UV absorption scanner optics using an AN-50 Ti eight-hole rotor and charcoal-filled EPON six-channel centrepieces. This setup allows the simultaneous analysis of five different samples. The lectin was dissolved at 1.0 mg ml−1 in 20 mM NH4HCO3 pH 8.5, 20 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 20 mM MES pH 6.5 or 5.5 and 20 mM sodium acetate pH 4.5. Molar masses were determined by sedimentation-diffusion equilibrium experiments using short (approximately 3 mm) sedimentation columns. To avoid differences in apparent molecular masses arising from rotor speed-dependent weighting, all experiments were carried out at the same speed (15 000 rev min−1). When the measured concentration profile remained unchanged for at least 12 h, equilibrium was assumed to be attained. The equilibrium concentration gradient for a single species is described by
where c(r) and c(m) are the concentrations at radius r and at the meniscus (radius m), respectively, M is the molar mass of the solute, is the partial specific volume of the solute (assumed to be 7.35 × 10−2 ml g−1), ω is the angular speed of the rotor (rad s−1) and R and T are the gas constant (8.314 J mol−1 K−1) and the temperature (in K), respectively. Apparent molar masses were determined by fitting this function to the measured radial distribution of the concentration gradient at equilibrium using the program EQASSOC (Minton, 1994 ) provided by the manufacturer. Blank buffer absorption was determined after overspeeding to sediment all material to the bottom of the cell.
The sparse-matrix method (Jancarik & Kim, 1991 ) using Crystal Screens I and II supplied by Hampton Research (California, USA) was utilized to perform initial screening of the crystallization conditions. Crystals were grown at 295 K by the vapour-diffusion method using 2 µl hanging drops composed of equal volumes of protein solution (15 mg ml−1 in water) and reservoir buffer (10% PEG 8000, 8% ethylene glycol, 100 mM HEPES pH 7.5). Crystals suitable for diffraction experiments (maximum dimensions 0.6 × 0.4 × 0.2 mm) grew within three weeks. For X-ray diffraction, crystals were flash-frozen at 100 K in a nitrogen-gas stream. Reservoir buffer containing 20% ethylene glycol proved to be a suitable cryoprotectant. The crystals were transferred directly from the drop to the cryoprotectant solution and were allowed to equilibrate for approximately 10 s. Single crystals were then mounted in nylon loops and rapidly transferred to the cryostream. The cryoprotected crystals were analysed using synchrotron radiation on BM16 at the ESRF (Grenoble). A complete data set was collected using a CCD (MAR Research) in 100 frames with an oscillation range of 1°. The data were indexed, integrated and scaled using MOSFLM (Leslie, 1997 ) and SCALA (Collaborative Computational Project, Number 4, 1994 ).
The average flotation masses [M(1 − ρ)] of HML determined in buffers of different pH in the range 4.5–8.5 by sedimentation-equilibrium analytical centrifugation were 3170–3400. These values correspond to apparent molecular weights of 12–13 kDa, which when compared with the MALDI–TOF mass of HML, 9357, indicate that the major molecular species is monomeric. The sedimentation curves at equilibrium could be adjusted to a single species at the acidic pH values [correlation coefficients 0.8 (pH 4.5), 0.97 (pH 5.5) and 1.0 (pH 6.5)], whereas formation of higher order species was detected in solutions of basic pH. The tendency to self-associate into higher order aggregates is a common phenomenon among lectins from diverse families.
Crystals of the H. musciformis lectin were grown at pH 7.5 in hanging drops by the vapour-diffusion method using a mixture of 10% PEG 8000 and 8% ethylene glycol as precipitant. The crystals belong to the orthorhombic space group P212121 (unit-cell parameters a = 44.89, b = 64.64, c = 104.90 Å) and diffracted to a maximum resolution of 2.4 Å (Fig. 2 ). Data in the 55.0–2.4 Å resolution range were scaled using SCALA to an R merge of 0.11 (0.33 in the highest resolution shell) with an I/σ(I) of 5 (1.7 in the highest resolution shell) (Table 1 ). Considerations of the packing density support the presence of four molecules in the asymmetric unit, which would correspond to a Matthews coefficient (V M) of 2.0 Å3 Da−1 and a solvent content of 39.1%.
The crystal structure of HML could not be solved using a molecular-replacement approach owing to the lack of a search model. HML binds GalNAc/Gal substituted with a neutral sugar through 1–3, 1–4 or 1–2 linkages in O-linked mucin-type glycans and Fuc(α1–6)GlcNAc of N-linked glycoproteins (Nagano et al., 2005 ). Analysis of suitable heavy-atom derivatives and the possibility of MAD phasing using either a sugar derivative as a carrier of an anomalous X-ray scatterer (Buts et al., 2003 ; Gallego del Sol et al., 2005 ) or the anomalous signal of sulfur (Ramagopal et al., 2003 ; Usón et al., 2003 ) are under way.

PS Vita hits 1.2 million sales worldwidePocket-lint
Sony Computer Entertainment has announced that worldwide sales of its PlayStation Vita handheld console have now exceeded 1.2 million units. In addition, more than 2 million pieces of software for the device have been sold, both at retail and on the PlayStation Network.
Of course, it will have to go some to top the sales figures of its predecessor, the PSP, which has sold more than 71 million units in just over seven years. But Sony can be reasonably proud of its initial results, considering that the PS Vita is a high-performing, high-quality piece of kit, launched during a global monetary recession.
Certainly, Andrew House, president and group CEO, Sony Computer Entertainment Inc, is upbeat. "PS Vita was designed to deliver the ultimate portable entertainment experience, and we couldn't be more thrilled with the reaction we're seeing from consumers and the pace at which PS Vita is selling," he says.
"The market has responded and there is clear demand for a mobile device capable of providing a revolutionary combination of rich gaming and social connectivity within a real world context.
"To sustain momentum, we're working closely with 3rd party developers and publishers to ensure the best games and franchises possible will be available on PS Vita, and our software line up for the remainder of 2012 will have something for everyone across the globe."
It's definitely been a critical success, with a vast majority of reviews, Pocket-lint's included, singing its praises - especially when it comes to hardcore gaming.
The initial sales figures don't quite match those of the Nintendo 3DS, which sold more than 3.5 million in around six weeks after its Japanese launch, but we suspect that Sony is playing the long game. Game support will be key and Sony claims that more than 70 new titles are in development for the handheld.
Do you think the PS Vita launch has been a success? Let us know in the comments below...

my app draws a string on a view. I have another slider control, which works in this way: when I change the slider's value, the string on the view also changes. But every time the string is redrawn it seems to overlap the old string and make the strings unclear.
my string drawing method is like this:
- (void)drawString:(NSString *)s withFont:(UIFont *)font inRect:(CGRect)contextRect {
CGFloat fontHeight = font.pointSize;
CGFloat yOffset = (contextRect.size.height - fontHeight) / 2.0;
CGRect textRect = CGRectMake(contextRect.origin.x, contextRect.origin.y + yOffset, contextRect.size.width, fontHeight);
[s drawInRect:textRect withFont:font lineBreakMode:NSLineBreakByClipping
Then in drawRect method of the view, I override it to draw the string:
[self drawString:someDynamicStringChangedEachTimeTheSliderValueChanged withFont:[UIFont fontWithName:@"Helvetica" size:12.0] inRect:textRect];
Then in view controller, on slider value changed event I put
- (void)sliderValueChangedBy:(id)sender
if ([sender isKindOfClass:[UISlider class]]) {
[myView setNeedsDisplay];
I found that after a few times of the value change the string goes blurry and overlap. Am I missing something here?
