Peter Frampton Covers Buddy Holly On Current Solo Tour [VIDEO]
Legendary musician Peter Frampton is apparently playing Holly's hit song "Peggy Sue" as part of his acoustic solo tour.
Legendary musician Peter Frampton is apparently playing Holly's hit song "Peggy Sue" as part of his acoustic solo tour.
Here are five things you may not know about Buddy Holly.
I have to confess one thing up front. At the time of most of these doings, I was pretty uninterested. I was a lot like a lot of other young people, my music mattered to me and anything that happened before then seemed somewhat irrelevant. Anyways, you may not realize it, but KFMX was WAY more instrumental in honoring Buddy and the Crickets than anybody realizes.
This year marks the 56th anniversary of the tragic plane crash that claimed the lives of Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and JP "The Big Bopper" Richardson, Jr.
Paul McCartney paid his respects to Lubbock, Texas native Buddy Holly with a touching cover of "It's So Easy."
It is rough in the streets in Lubbock. The football team is stumblin', three Texas Tech fraternities have been suspended (the last for some real rape-y behavior) and the whole place is currently a mud pit. With all those nonsense making headlines, it's good to see a positive spotlight on the town.
I think much to much is made of Buddy's legacy THESE days; it's just too much too late. Read more after the break.
I read an article about Lubbock's Moonlight Musical beginning the new season $80,000 in debt. The problem is/was simple; they only averaged about 80 people a night to see the Buddy Holly musical in the park...
A bunch of artists you don't care about are about to salute Buddy Holly in honor of his 75th birthday. Find out more after the jump.
On second thought, maybe the Buddy Holly Statue relocation is good. He's now facing the highway as if he can't wait to get out of here, and his back is towards Lubbock so everyone can kiss his ass when he leaves. Check out a couple of pics from our prank.
The Buddy Holly statue will be dedicated today at 4 pm, and we have a little surprise for them. As a form of protest, we decided that we would forever make ourselves a part of rock and roll history.
Our sister station KFYO is reporting that the "Buddy In A Box" will be re-revealed next month in a special ribbon cutting ceremony. Read more after the jump.

For my final installment in my spotlight of themed sketchbooks, I turn to comics' most popular sidekick: Robin. Many men (and a couple of women) have stood at Batman's side as the boy wonder, and since the character's inception in 1940 he's carved a mark in fans … especially comics retailer and comics pro Vito Delsante.
"I'm a fan of Robin the Boy Wonder. Any incarnation. So I have folks a million times more talented than I am draw him for me!" says Delsante. He admits to dressing up as the Boy Wonder himself on two occasions for Halloween, for as he puts it "It's a great character for kids since it's ultimate wish fulfillment; you can be a kid and still hang out with Batman? Sign me up!"

To all those deserving, ignorant idiots who are still bashing either Microsoft's XBox 360 or Sony's Playstation3, let me get a flyswatter out so I can smack each of you right across the face. I wonder if you can even comprehend the fact that you use your console for games. Yeah, that's right -- the round spinny discs that you put in the machines? You play THAT, not the console itself. Checking out a recent thread that is a "fact-based" debate on the XBox 360 versus the PS3, I've come to a conclusion that the majority of gamers have indeed become stupid. They care more about how fast the system runs than what the system plays. To give them a bone, however, I will compare the two systems:
XBox 360:
- 3 PowerPC cores running at 3.2GHz each
- Custom ATi GPU running at 500MHz
- 512MB of GDDR3 RAM
- Option to attach removable HDD
- DVD-9 Drive (as of current)
- Cell processor running at 3.2GHz
- Custom nVidia CPU running at 550MHz
- 256MB of XDR RAM, 256MB of GDDR3 RAM
- Option to attach removable HDD
- Blu-ray Drive
Before you bitch that the Cell processor is the best thing since sliced bread -- zip it. As powerful as it is, IT RUNS AT 3.2 GIGA-FRIGGIN'-HERTZ. It doesn't matter if it is capable of running at a million GHz -- when you play a game on the PS3, the Cell processor WILL RUN AT 3.2 GIGAHERTZ.
I also took another look at the specs and thought to myself -- hmmmmm, these machines look pretty damn friggin' similar, don't they? After seeing this, the flamers should come to their senses, right? Nope. Apparently, the ignorant need new hearing aids, 'cause they're still bitchin'. So let me help you, ok? Lemme kick you in the balls so you can all yell higher. Good? OK :)
Even with the facts, they just can't stop pleading their case. Checking out the forums, I came across a thread that was still an XBox 360 versus PS3 war, but with factual evidence being stressed in this thread, I expected an intelligent debate, one that focused on the games instead of the specs. I was dead wrong. There were even some who expressed their disgust at the new controller, and asked why the old controller didn't return. ?!?!?!?!?!!?! Are you fucking kidding me? Did they not hear about the case against Sony by Immersion Corp., which accused Sony of copying Immersion's rumble design? A case that Sony lost, and therefore had to cease selling DualShock controllers after a certain date (while, at the same time, paying royalties for each DualShock sold)? If not, I just told you, and you'll be more informed than you were before. If you already knew it, then you're just plain stupid and ignorant. Geez, I mean, compared to the well informed reasonable users we have on this site, there are probably more than 10 times that number who are asswipes.
Also, what the hell is it with Sony and controllers? I don't mean about the rumble thing -- I'm talking about having the ability to have 7 controllers on one machine. First it was two (I'm not counting the rumble -- stupid bitches want more money to add two more players, let them), then 7?!?! What, are all the players gonna squint at their little space on the TV, or does Sony really think the average gamer can afford a Sony 60-Inch Plasma screen TV? Stupid bitches...
So, just as the ignorant will continue to be misinformed, pompous pricks who are unwilling to listen to reason, I will continue to try and be a reasoning voice to counter their stupidity.

late 2000s so some new cars not included. A lot of the cars to my knowledge were cars made in the 1990s and 2000s. I suppose the publishers had a different idea of what "cool" is as to me is old muscle cars. There is however a lot of detailed photos and a lot of information about the cars, manufacturers and the cars history. It is interesting and much larger than I expected. Great for a car lover, but I would have liked to see some more classic cars.

Japan Can Make Korea Understand Goal to Boost Defense, Suga Says
The Japanese government can make South Korea understand its plan to increase the reach of its defense forces, Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga said, after a senior Korean official called the goal unacceptable.
"Japan and South Korea are important neighboring countries for each other, so we should explain our national security policy," Suga told journalists in Tokyo today. "If we explain that, they will understand our idea."
South Korea won't accept the Japanese government's push to reinterpret its pacifist constitution to allow its defense forces to support an ally under attack, Vice Defense Minister Baek Seung Joo told Yonhap News yesterday. Baek told Yonhap that such a change -- which Japan has called collective self-defense -- would cause regional instability.
Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe is pushing for a more flexible interpretation of the constitution as he seeks to respond to threats ranging from China's growing military muscle to North Korea's nuclear arsenal and terrorist attacks. South Korea and China, which suffered under the Japanese occupation that ended with Japan's defeat in World War II, have opposed efforts to strengthen the country's defense capacity.
"As a sovereign nation, it goes without saying that we have the right to collective defense," Abe said yesterday at a government meeting on the issue in Tokyo. "The international situation surrounding our nation is becoming harsher, with increasing cross-border threats such as terrorism and cyber attacks."
The U.S., which maintains bases in Japan, imposed the pacifist constitution on the country after the war and now supports Abe's effort to reinterpret it.

iPhone update adds features, fixes battery error
According to discussions on Apple's support site and several reader reports, it appears iPhone Software 1.0.1 includes a few new features, along with the known bug fixes and security patches. There is now a BCC: option in the phone's Mail Settings to send yourself a copy — this was previously only a CC: option. Passcode Lock timing options have been expanded up to "After 1 Hour," and it has also been reported that the 1.0.1 update fixes a previously reported battery issue in which the iPhone's display would not indicate a full charge.

Sounds Good,
Funny. I thought I found 3 or 4 new features only to find they were there all along.
iPhone mail has always supported up to 5 lines. I've been using 4 lines since the 3rd day I had my phone.

Sorry but the Always BCC myself has always been there. There is still NO BCC: option when sending a new message.

Another minor fix - if you watch a YouTube video which you've already bookmarked, at the end of the video it'll only give you the option to share the video, not bookmark or share it. Before the update, it used to show both options but "Bookmark" was grayed out. Unfortunately, against the background of the screen the grey wasn't always easily visible, which led to people often trying to bookmark a video they'd already bookmarked previously.

Romantic Love
Sleepless nights, anxiety, mood swings, euphoric energy bursts, obsessive thinking, and a strange feeling in his chest. That is what Matt was experiencing when he first entered my practice. Rather than being concerned, he was loving every minute of it.
A Whole-Body Approach to Chronic Tension Headaches
Nearly every day in our practices, we see patients with chronic headaches that have not responded to traditional treatment. They present in our offices with a feeble hope that "maybe" a chiropractor can help.
Distal Style Treatment of Neurogenic Pain
Treat locally or distally? This question has frequented my thoughts for the treatment of pain throughout my acupuncture career. Each style has strengths and weaknesses, thus the versatile practitioner would do well to forgo dogmatic adherence to any one style in deference to the needs of the individual patient.
Understanding Levels of Evidence
The concept of levels of evidence is a cornerstone of research literacy and a great starting point for understanding basic principles of how research works.
Low Fat vs. Low Carb & the Power of Protein
A science-based website recently posted a nice summary of 23 randomized, controlled trials from peer-reviewed journals pitting low-carb diets against low-fat diets.
In This Current Age of Anxiety
Anxiety, also referred to angst or hysteria, goes by many names. One, popularized by the sagacious Zhang Zhong Jing, who many practitioners of Chinese Medicine may be familiar with, is known as Restless Zang/Fu disorder.
A Different Way of Looking at It
The way you and your chiropractic colleagues access information has changed over the past decade. According to a recent survey conducted by Dynamic Chiropractic, almost half (48 percent) of DCs read online articles on their personal computer or laptop daily.
Building Bridges with Discipline
As practitioners of traditional Chinese herbal medicine, our role is to educate patients and medical practitioners about the various safety aspects of our medicine.

Hip Flexor Contractures & LBP in Above-the-Knee Amputations
Patients with above-the-knee amputations (AK or AKA) are particularly prone to developing hip flexor contractures. Not to be confused with muscle tightness, contractures are a permanent shortening of tissues which cause deformity or distortion.

Streamline Your Front Desk
Your front office can be your greatest source of efficiency or it can be a constant bottleneck. Increasing the productivity of this area, while not sacrificing the quality of patient interaction, can be a little tricky. However, with some focused effort and intention, your front desk can keep your practice running smoothly.
Holistic Skin Care and Modern Technology
Anti-aging is a concept that we hear in reference to skin rejuvenation and growing older on a daily basis. Aging begins as soon as we are born; therefore "pro-aging" is embracing all stages of life gracefully, with vitality, wisdom, joy, and gratitude as the goal.
Billing One-on-One, Direct Patient Contact
This is often misunderstood and leads to trepidation when documenting and subsequently billing timed services.
Keeping Malpractice Allegations at Bay
It has been suggested that in the litigious environment in which we live, the practice of chiropractic should be defensive and practitioners should constantly be watching their backs. An element of defensive practice is a good idea.

21-Year-Old Looks Forward to Pain-Free Adulthood
By John Upledger, DO, OMM
Author's Note: With all that has been written about scientific research, placebo effects, double-blind studies and such, one might wonder why I didn't listen to naysayers regarding CranioSacral Therapy (CST) and other techniques long ago.The following explains why I choose to listen to patients and their bodies, rather than to critics.
The smile on Jo Anna Wiersma's face speaks volumes beyond her words: "I've had pain for 12 years, and now it's gone." With one look, the tall, soft-spoken 21-year-old conveys all the hope of someone given a new chance in life - the first, really, for her.
Since the age of 8, Jo Anna Wiersma had lived at the mercy of reflexive sympathetic dystrophy (RSD), a neurological syndrome brought on, in her case, from a simple fall while roller-skating. Little explanation can be offered as to why she developed a life-altering condition from such a common childhood mishap. There is little beyond "the right set of circumstances all colliding together," as she puts it.
The pain began in Jo Anna's left foot about two days after the accident. It was a deep, persistent, "on-fire" kind of pain. The orthopedic doctor thought it was a sprain and put her in an air cast for six weeks. "It's the worst thing you can do," Jo Anna said. Casting and immobilization can actually worsen the symptoms of RSD. "My skin got a silvery sheen and was blue and purple." A family friend who was a nurse practitioner recognized Jo Anna's problem for what it was and recommended a doctor in the pain management clinic where she worked. Testing at Shand's Children's Hospital in Gainesville, Fla., confirmed RSD - a condition that has no known remedy.
Jo Anna found some relief during her teen years. "I was able to be in the marching band and on the swim team," she says. Then she started college, where she tried to do too much. The RSD flared up with a vengeance, spreading for the first time to her left hand. In a four-month span she went through seven lumbar punctures, two rhizotomies (in which the sympathetic ganglion nerves were severed), and an epidural catheter that left her paralyzed from the waist down for 11 days. That's when a friend of Jo Anna's mom recommended CST at the Upledger Institute HealthPlex Clinical Services (UI HealthPlex).
In a two-week intensive program, Jo Anna was found to have severe restrictions of her intracranial membrane system and dural tube - a compromised craniosacral system - and severe imbalances in her autonomic nervous system and myofascia. During the course of therapy, "I knew something was going on inside me," Jo Anna says. "There were times I forgot to take my methadone. And methadone is a drug that's really hard to forget because of the withdrawal symptoms and the pain that comes back." (Methadone is a powerful pain reliever that is extremely addictive; at this point, Jo Anna had been taking prescribed methadone for several years.) By the end of the intensive therapy program, Jo Anna's pain had improved enough that she was able to go back to school.
In January 2002, however, she faced another setback when she contracted encephalitis. Once again, the correct diagnosis was slow in coming. A neurologist, an infectious disease specialist and a rheumatologist all concluded that her condition was a complication of the RSD and medication. "They automatically assumed it was the RSD and was psychosomatic," Jo Anna recalls. In April, another neurologist finally confirmed the problem was encephalitis.
Jo Anna stepped up her appointments at the UI HealthPlex, coming at least twice weekly and going through another weeklong intensive program. Finally, this past December, "everything started to get better," she says. Though she readily admits it was a tough process. "There were times when I got very discouraged, wondering if this was even working. It took a good year to recover from the encephalitis, and I'm still feeling some of the effects. Especially when I'm under stress, I get very tired and the pain in my foot comes back. But I'm pain-free most days of the week now, which, actually, is a weird feeling. I honestly didn't remember life without pain."
Tad Wanveer, LMT, CST-D, worked on Jo Anna for her official "last appointment." "What a difference," he observes. "Jo Anna shows a high level of improvement and balance in the areas in which she initially presented. It's wonderful to see this courageous, intelligent, sensitive young woman able to go back and live her life, " he adds.
And living life is exactly what Jo Anna is doing: "I have a lot more focus, and I'm more sure about what I want to do. One of my goals is to run a triathlon, which I would never have been able to do," she says. "I've never been able to run even a quarter of a mile. I'm also graduating from my community college and going to college in Ft. Myers [Florida] for their pre-med program." From there, she wants to attend the Kirksville College of Osteopathy.
Laughing, Jo Anna says, "I have a twin sister, and we've always been competitive. She's in Tennessee going to school. She's a chemistry major with a biology minor, and I'll be a biology major with a chemistry minor. During the summers, she works for a big pharmaceutical company, and she's been gearing all her research toward finding a cure for pain. I keep telling her, 'It's right in front of your eyes!'"
The sparkle in Jo Anna's own eyes reveals how anxious she is to prove her point. "You know, a year ago I didn't even know if I'd get this far. I didn't even know if I'd graduate with my A.A. degree," she recounts. "I look at everything as a gift. I have my life back now. And it's a lot better life than I had before."
I will never forget the last time I saw Jo Anna. She came into the clinic and said simply, "I'm all better."
"What?" I asked, somewhat surprised.
"I think I'm finished," she said. "I feel great."
Seeing that smile light up her face, I couldn't help but agree.

Manu Ginobili won't be going back to the bat cave anytime soon.
The San Antonio Spurs star, who swatted a bat during a game on Saturday, posted on his Facebook page on Monday that he had to get rabies shots.
Late in the first period of the Spurs win over the Kings on Saturday a bat swooped into the AT&T Center and descended onto the court. Players scattered and officials stopped play. The bat circled and left only to return -- briefly.

These were wonderful ~ the reason why everyone is having trouble with dryness is because they NEED to be covered. Anytime you are baking in the oven & you don't want something to dry out it HAS to be covered. Then about 10 min. before it's done it can be uncovered to brown
The name says it all. I read all of the reviews, and some said bake, some said use the skillet. I did it both ways. 6 minutes browning, 10 minutes sauteing, 20 minutes in the oven, all in the same oven-proof skillet. I used low sodium Soy sauce, and instead of dry ginger and garlic salt, I minced 1/2 tsp. of fresh ginger and two garlic cloves, thus reducing sodium and keeping my doctor happy. The taste was to die for, but the lower sodium was to live for.
This is still one of our favorite dishes. I just made them a few minutes ago. Here is my latest. I did thme on the stove top. I oiled my cast iron skillet with canola, enough to cover. Seasoned my chops with my favorite seasoning, and browned chops each side about 4 minutes. In the meantime, I mixed my other ingredients for the sauce. Which I recommend highly that you double. If you don't there is no way there will be enough sauce and you will be disappointed. I too, like another reviewer used garlic powder instead of garlic salt. I then removed chops from skillet and added more oil to cover the skillet. Put chops back in the skillet, reduced heat to medium, poured sauce over chops, covered skillet with lid, and cooked on medium for about 15-20 minutes (thin chops), turning and basting with the sauce in skillet about 3 times. Served with rice and broccoli. I love this recipe!! Thanks!
I have to give this recipe 5 stars simply because of the base ingredients, but I have to say there is a much better and simpler way to prepare this dish. Mix all the ingredients together for the sauce and set aside. Brown your pork chops (I use boneless pork chops), then pour the sauce over the pork chops, let it remain at a high heat for just a couple of minutes, until the sauce is really bubbly. Then cover the skillet and turn down the heat to medium-low. Let cook for another 5-10 minutes, or until they reach 165 degrees. They turn out so moist and the flavor is amazing. I find when you follow the original recipe, it A) takes to long and B) the sauce really doesn't stick to the meat. This is one of our families favorite meals and it is so easy to make.
Made as directed with these exceptions....Made entire recipe in my large skillet on the stove top. After browning of the chops, simmered all for 30-45 mins covered. Used the sauce over the top of white rice. 5 stars for Yummy Yummy Pork Chops
This recipe was easy and YUMMY!!!! At the time I made this recipe there were 165 reviews, and I read them all. I followed what others had done, and cooked the entire recipe on the stove. I also made 4x the sauce, and poked holes in my thick chops, and let it marinate overnight. What a great idea. Then I browned the chops for about 3 minutes on each side, then added the marinade, brought it up to a simmer, and then lowered the temp. down to med low, and covered them. I turned the chops every 5 minutes for 20 minutes, then I took the chops out, and covered them for 5 minutes. I added a little cornstartch to the sauce to thicken it the way I like it. These chops were moist, and the sauce was Fantastic!!!
I used this recipe as a starting point for my dinner last night. I tripled the sauce ingredients, and added 2 TB brown sugar and let the chops marinade for about 2 hours. I then seared the chops in a pan for about 3 minutes per side along with a sliced onion, added the sauce back into the pan, covered & let them simmer for about 10 minutes (they were thin cut). I added a mixture of apx 1 TB cornstarch + 1 TB water to thicken at the end and served with rice. Very delicious and simple! Thanks!
This has become a favorite at our house and I make it twice a month. I do it on the stove in a skillet. Brown the chops 5 minutes each side in olive oil and butter, add the other ingredients, cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Perfect!
One the most tasty receipies I've tried and the family loved it. To keep my pork chop from drying out, I brined the chops in a gallon ziplock bag with two tablespoons of salt and two cups of water then refrigerated for about 3 hours. Then browned for four minutes on one side then three minutes on the other with one tablespoon of oil over medium high heat. Because of the brining, I omitted the garlic salt and use one minced garlic clove. Baked for 35 minutes instead of the one hour. The chops came out perfect.
Delicious! I took others' advice and browned the chops, then made the sauce in the same pan, then added the chops back in. I'm always trying to create less dirty dishes!

Taking Time For You ? The Benefits of Taking a Retreat
- By Beatrice Fulciniti
- Published 07/23/2011

Changes are occurring in our lives at an ever-rapid pace. Our roles as parents, partners, caretakers, employees, etc., all vie for our time and energy. We become even further stretched as we encounter life transitions such as marriage, career change, loss of a loved one, health challenges or identifying our life's purpose. The need to slow down, reconnect with ourselves and reflect on what is important to us, is a form of self-care that has become crucial to our well being. Retreats are an excellent way to accomplish this.

Dussehra is the celebration of the grand victory of Lord Ramachandra over the mighty demon Ravana .And of course this is a factual historical event that took place in Sri Lanka, during the Treta Yuga, but know that it is also a lila, the pastimes of the Lord, that can take place within your heart when you take shelter of Lord Ramachandra. And therefore on this day, in preparation for this day, we should truly meditate on what this lila truly means to us. What it means to our life? The symbol of Kama(lust), Ravana ,who is dwelling in the heart of all living souls and is the single deadly enemy of every living being can all be defeated by the mighty glory of Lord Ramachandra. When we remember Lord Rama, He appears within our heart. By remembering Lord Rama. He kills all the demons within our heart.

The first chapters are somehow more fundamental since it presents the creation of O/R mapper and infrastructure frameworks which I think for simplicity sake were created mainly in-house rather using current available in the industry.
DDD is a process and I think this book presents the concept quite well, though the pattern for solving the case are repetitive after chapter 6, so I could read through or skip them faster to see what's more the content conveys.
Overall I think this book is just a DDD starter.
Most Helpful Customer Reviews on Amazon.com (beta)
That's what Tim McCarthy's book does. It presents an anotated reference application, a real estate construction management application built as a WPF smart client. McCarthy's writing is clear and to-the-point--he simply provides a running commentary on the reference app from a sequence-of-development perspective. He starts with a skeleton and builds out the app from there, discussing his refactorings as he goes. I find this very helpful as a template for developing my own DDD apps.
The reference app is written in C#, as are the book's code snippets. However, since most of the code discussed boils down to .NET calls, even VB users with only limited experience with C# may find it useful. As C# is my language of choice, it did not present any problem for me.
This is a really good book; the best I've bought in a while. I do not hesitate to recommend it to any developer learning DDD in C#.
1. UnitOfWork is broken. What happens when someone adds entity to repository, and then removes it before commiting? The code will try to remove not existing objects from database and then it will add it!
2. Handling of child objects. For example addresses. In any real world app deleting every child object and then adding it again whether there were changes or not would have no place. First performance. Second what If You have to keep history of changes of that child object? What if they have Id's in database and have other children? What if two users work with same objects? What about concurrency? These are problems I have to deal with every day and I would expect some good examples from book writer. Especially that has so many certificates.
3. This book has a lot of repetitive text/code for every factory/repository/service clsss... I would like to have some discussion about problems I mentioned in p.2
4. WPF that nobody knows (yeah some know, but how many WPF have You seen?) shouldn't be used in book about DDD. Do it in WinForms, ASP.NET or even Console app. Why show us WPF? Hell You can't even build sources from this book without going to 3rd party for their GridControl. What's the point of using WPF?
This book is good for someone that doesn't know much about DDD and is doing apps for one user. O
The problem with this book is that it is unreadable.
When a book's goal is to present logical design, but does so in a completely haphazard fashion. Perhaps I expected more of a logical design from a book that talks about logical design.
I feel like there was another book I should have read before this book - I just don't know what that book is. Reading this material without some other primer and coming away with a real sense of DDD is like watching 'Empire' and having a real sense of the entire Star Wars series.
You get a lot of 'Do This', but not a lot of 'This is what needs to happen, and here is how we get there...' Maybe after a few more reads I will get more out of this book, but they are long, slow, painful reads. Sorry Tim - I know how hard it is to write technical material on this high of a level, but this is very unfun reading...
About the topic, the design was very interesting to me. I used this approach in my past company ( about 10 years ago). However, the design in this book was much cleaner with the favor of .Net 3.5. I like the concept of "the domain model is ignorant of how its data is saved or retrieved from its underlying data store or stores" . The introduction of unitOfWork and Repository objects for each aggregate was good in the design. I think chapter 2 was most important chapter. This described the architecture design of the application, what layer needed, how they interacts with each other. This must be understood completely before moving down to the detail. Once the design pattern was clear, the later chapters provided detail implementations. The structure was similar exception each chapter focus on particular aggregate entity.
I think this book is definitely not for C# beginner. It can be a good reference for higher level.
My main objective is that it can get a bit repetitive. By accident I skipped from the middle of one chapter to the middle of the next. Because of the repetitiveness it took me a while to discover it. At the same time new aspects are constantly introduced so there are still value in the new chapters.
A big annoyance is all the textual errors. It is obvious that cut and paste has been a big part of writing this book, and many times the author has forgotten to update the copied text appriopriately. There is also evidence of the restructuring of the book gone bad, with reference to items not having been introduced yet. It all seems like a bit of a rush job.
Even so, I will give it a pretty high score for the content of the book and the way it can help developers approach their challenges in a good way

At first I wasn't sure about purchasing the chrome deflectors or the smoke version, but after installing them they look great! My husband gave them to me for Christmas, but I finally put them on in May (the tape won't adhere in cold weather). The directions were easy and since I already have the chrome bug shield, they finish off my Jeep with style. Now I just hope they don't blow off on the highway although the tape seems really strong.
Looking for the most stylish protection for your car, truck or SUV? Set your ride up with chrome bug deflectors and vent visors. But, before you make your purchase, make sure you know which chrome deflectors and vent visors provide the best protection for your vehicle.

This was a decent little motel. Friendly staff, comfortable rooms with everything you'd expect for the price. The real selling point is that it's only a block from the Old Town Plaza so you'll be able to walk over if you want to spend the day in the area. Only rated 4 out of 5 because the price was a tad more than I'd hoped, but I suppose that's what you pay for the location.
