Tony Hawk and Robomodo start on "next project"
Tony Hawk: RIDE kind of sucked. Undeterred, the Birdman's confirmed Robomodo's started on a second game.
"Just met with @robomodo about our next project", Hawk tweeted, "and it's already much better than I expected".
Which is a good thing, clearly. RIDE, the first Hawk game to ship with a bespoke skateboard peripheral, got a universal panning at the end of last year.
This isn't the first time Hawk's mentioned a sequel. He said in November that he was "all systems go" for another game.

Microsoft Works on PHP and Open Source
Microsoft Corporation has opened an Open Source Interop Technology Center near Munich, Germany that should promote open source software on Windows and improve the relationship of its products with the free software community.
The first months of activities of the new entity near Munich are dedicated primarily to working on support for the PHP scripting language on Windows. In addition, the center is putting efforts into the Interoperability initiative of the Open Source Business Foundation (OSBF), the European open source network located in Nuremberg that also includes Red Hat and Novell among its members.
Leadership of the Interop Technology Center will be under Andreas Urban, who has the new position at Microsoft of Manager of Open Source Strategy. His boss is Andreas Hartl, Director of Platform Strategy. Responsible for coordinating the PHP work and communicating it to the PHP community is Pierre Joye at Microsoft's Open Source Technology Center in Redmond.

If you're looking for a hostel full of young travelers, keep looking. When I arrived the place was pretty much dead. My room was a tent in the backyard. Cheap, only $13, but if you've booked this option you're in for one hell of a night. The Mosquitos are nonstop and there are no mosquito nets. There must be a dog slaughter house nearby because dogs were howling all night. The hostel is located in a decent part of town, and they do have wifi, so there's that.

Into the West: The Story of Its Peopleby Walter Nugent
View All Available Formats & Editions
Acclaimed historian Walter Nugent brings us what is perhaps the most comprehensive and fascinating account to date of the peopling of the American West. In this epic social-demographic history, Nugent explores the populations of the West as they grow, change and intersect from the Paleo-Indians, the Spanish Conquistadors, to displaced Okies, wartime African American immigrants, and all the disparate groups that have made California the most ethnically diverse state in the union.
Their tale, in all its complexity, is a tale that surprises, that subverts traditional stereotypes and that illuminates the multifaceted character of one of the world's most unique and dynamic territories.

Read an Excerpt
Several fault lines distinguish people's ideas about the West. One separates those wedded to the victory narratives of Buffalo Bill, Turner, or novelist Zane Grey, from demythologizers who are more aware of "the manifold ways in which one people's ambitions are fulfilled at the expense of another's." A parallel fault line divides those who see the frontier narrative as progressive and ennobling from those who stress conflict, conquest, and environmental depletion. Another line splits those who define "the West" as myth or state of mind from those who anchor it in historical and geographical fact. Still another separates those who define the West as the interior, exclusive Dodge-to-Sierras country, from those who see it extending from the Great Plains to the Pacific. The former think it really ended around 1915. The latter will tell you that it is still happening.
The Angeleno's view of the world is certainly more cosmopolitan than the 1970s' perspective from midtown Manhattan in Saul Steinberg's cartoon. But neither says much about history or about the migrations that have peopled the West. It is time to get to the story, keeping in mind that the West in question here is the Plains-to-Pacific West, the census's West plus the Great Plains, the left half of the map of the United States. Millions of people went there, motivated in most cases by homesteading, gold rushing, California dreaming, nostalgia, or unembellished wage earning. That is the where and the why. Who peopled the West, and when? Those are questions for a demographic history, which is as follows.

He has published nine previous books and well over a hundred essays and review on American and comparative history. He lives with his wife, the historian Suellen Hoy, in Chesteron, Indiana.

China's SOEs Attract PE Interest — Private Equity International Magazine 0 commentsMar 4, 2014 4:55 AM
March 4th, 2014 EditNo comments
-China's state-owned enterprise promise big returns for PE investors, as well as a big challenge.
By: Clare Burrows-
In 2013, private equity investment in China dropped to just $4.5 billion - about 47 percent below the equivalent figure for 2012, according to data from Thomson Reuters. Since China's dry powder level was estimated at $59 billion at the end of 2012, it's clear that China's GPs need to find new ways to deploy the vast amounts of capital raised during better times.-
What seems to be catching the industry's eye more than ever are the country's state-owned enterprises:large, government-controlled organisations, many of which are in dire need of restructuring. While state-owned enterprises account directly or indirectly for 60 percent of China's GDP, according to research by China First Capital, almost 100 percent of institutional capital, especially private equity, has
been invested into China's privately-owned sector.
However, as the number of traditional opportunities falls, "this may leave investing in SOEs as the best, largest and most promising new area for private equity investment," Peter Fuhrman, chairman and chief executive at China First Capital suggests.-
And, some industry sources ask: what better target for private equity than these bloated, inefficient giants, which the newly-appointed Chinese government is apparently so keen to reform? SOEs are highly compliant when it comes to tax and accounting laws (a rare phenomenon among China's privately-owned companies). Better still, they're a bargain - because China's State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC) regulates their price based on net asset value.-
"If you have a highly profitable SOE that has very low net assets, you can potentially buy it at incredibly low P/E multiples," Fuhrman says. With one deal China First is advising on, 51 percent of the business is being offered at 2x EBITDA, he adds. China First is currently acting as an investment banker for five of China's largest SOEs, including China Aerospace, China State Construction, China Huadian, Wuliangye Group and Shandong Energy.

Defined populations of American (Periplaneta americana), German (Blattella germanica), and Oriental (Blatta orientalis) cockroaches, and silverfish (Lepisma saccharina) were observed after exposure to deposits (25 g/m2) of a new 1,1,1–trimethyl-N-trimethylsilane-modified, highly hydrophobic diatomaceous earth (DE) formulation by using a computer-aided device measuring motility, circadian rhythm, and mortality under defined environmental and climatic field-simulating and exposure-enforced conditions. In a humid climate (85% relative humidity) with water and food offered ad libitum, complete population eradication could be achieved on the sixth day against B. germanica, on the eighth day against P. americana, and on the ninth day against L. saccharina, respectively. No population eradication occurred within 10 days of exposure when testing B. orientalis, showing a mean survival rate of 29.4 ± 6.7 % of the populations. When comparing the species-specific mortality rates with the results obtained from corresponding reference control groups, significantly higher mortality rates could be observed in B. germanica (F = 66; df = 52; P < 0.00001), P. americana (F = 344; df =66; P < 0.00001), L. saccharina (F = 253; df = 24; P < 0.00001), and B. orientalis (F = 422; df = 11; P < 0.00001). Overall, the efficacy of the hydrophobised DE examined ranked as follows: B. germanica > P. americana (F = 51; df = 24; P < 0.00001) > L. saccharina (F = 43; df = 24; P < 0.00001) >> B. orientalis (F = 9; df = 15; P < 0.000001). DE exposure resulted in complete disruption of the circadian activity in B. germanica and P. americana, but not when tested against B. orientalis, where the species-specific circadian motility peak was still preserved at lower levels after 10 days of exposure. In contrast to the cockroach species examined, no specific circadian rhythm could be measured in the L. saccharina control and treatment groups. Results indicate that hydrophobised DE originating from freshwater diatoms modified with 1,1,1-trimethyl-N-trimethylsilane can be successfully used for the control of infestations with German and American cockroaches as well as silverfish, but not against Oriental cockroaches. It is concluded that species-specific morphological, physiological and behavioural characteristics of insects influencing DE efficacy as well as the toxicological risk of modified DE to humans deserve further investigation.

Expert: Rutland has room for retail growthBy Gordon Dritschilo
Staff Writer | March 20,2013Rutland could use more toy stores, book stores and restaurants, according to a business consultant.
Tripp Muldrow of Arnett, Muldrow and Associates in South Carolina performed the marketing study commissioned by the Downtown Rutland Partnership in 2009. Wednesday, he offered the audience at the Rutland Business Summit an update to the data he collected.
"Rutland is among the most regional markets in which we've ever worked," he said. "You serve as a commercial center for a very large geography. ... That puts Rutland at a distinct advantage because you are that center, you are the city for this region."
The event Wednesday, attended by about 25 people at the Franklin Conference Center, featured almost a dozen speakers, most of them listing the various resources available to people looking to start or expand a business in Rutland.
"People talk about, 'there's no help for business in Vermont,'" said Jamie Stewart, executive director of the Rutland Economic Development Corp. "I've heard that so many times, and it's usually because they haven't reached out."
Stewart said he and his organization can connect an existing or potential business to a wide variety of resources at the state and federal level, putting business owners with a specific person who will walk them through the process. He said the most important piece of information he wanted to get out was his phone number: 773-9147.
"If you see that you have an opportunity in your business, come and talk to us," Stewart said. "We'll see where we can help you. ... If you're talking to someone who's talking about starting their own business, send them our way. We can save them from spending money, we can save them from spinning their wheels, we can save them a lot of time."

A few things have changed since the Spartan V track car was announced almost three years ago. Back in 2010, the red open-top sportscar from Australia was slated to be a 661-pound apex-hugger with 170 horsepower coming from a 1,200-cc Ducati engine. The slinky red bodywork remains, but the engine now comes from Honda: a 2.0-liter four-cylinder turns the output wick up to 250 hp. Opt for the supercharger and benefit from 400 horsepower. Weight has predictably gone up as well, the Spartan V now clo

Blog: Currency Affairs
Chris Brook-Carter | 8 January 2004
The troubles that may face wine producers attempting to import and then sell into the US market were alluded to by the boss of the world's largest wine company, Constellation Wines, as it announced its latest quarterly results earlier this week.
Stephen Millar, who became head of Constellation's wine unit after the takeover of Australia's BRL Hardy in March 2003, said: "The wine industry is going through a challenging time, and it's tougher than it has been."
Australian winemakers selling in the US in particular are having to reassess pricing and strategies due to the surging Australian currency. The Australian dollar was the best performing major currency in 2003 rising 34% against the US dollar and ending the year at around 75 cents.
Australian winemakers now face a choice. Either they trim margins to maintain volumes and market share, or risk both by pushing through price increases in the US to maintain profitiability.
France, Italy and Australia accounted for 83% of the US$2.15 billion of still table wine the US imported in the first 10 months of 2003, according to the National Association of Beverage Importers. And it is producers from these countries who must make the toughest decisions, as the US has proved a lucrative balance to their declining home markets.
There was a useful article in the Sydney Morning Herald today summarising some of the probelms ahead. To see it follow the link below.

Anyone who's suffered from chapped cheeks or painful redness after using a rough facial scrub knows that not all exfoliators are created equal. This powerful microdermabrasion treatment instantly brightens all skin types by gently buffing away dead skin cells, revealing radiant, healthy skin underneath. All-natural jojoba, aloe vera, and chamomile soothe, soften, and refresh this newly exposed skin. Over time, it even reduces the appearance of fine lines, acne marks, and discoloration. The best part? No appointment-making hassle or big spend necessary: The citrus-scented exfoliant is designed to mimic in-office treatments but can be used at home.
I'm a 38 year old with some acne scarring on my cheeks. I absolutely love this product. I love that the microdermabrasion particles are very small. Upon application, it instantly feels like the product is doing its job. The best part is how smooth your skins feels immediately after. I am not sure how this product specifically is helping my scars as I'm using another product with retin in it as well. Overall, I would highly recommend this product!5

School Library JournalWarlick presents a scenario for the future of information literacy, and it will be a whole (not necessarily brave) new world. Chapter one gives a vivid fictional picture of a day in a future middle school in which learning and literacy occur through technologies such as interactive portable slates, and human interaction happens in configurations so flexible and fluid as to be impossible in traditional schools. The next three chapters follow a neat information-literacy progression. "Exposing the Information" presents strategies for investigation-tried-and-true methods segueing into new ways of accessing and processing information through interactive technologies. "Employing the Information" looks at how data will be analyzed and interpreted in combinations of new formats and technologies, some only dreamed of today. "Expressing Ideas Compellingly" provides a menu of potential publishing formats that will supersede what we teach today, and the final chapter deals with ethical considerations, which will be even more difficult to define and legislate. Profound and inescapable ideas are examined and spun out to logical consequences and conclusions, one of the clearest being that-like it or not-students are now on the cusp of a change in learning. The burden of determining accuracy and utility in content is fast shifting from the publisher to the consumer, and educators had better prepare those consumers to be up to the job. Well documented and presented with plenty of visuals and models, this is a sobering and critical read for anyone in education.-Mary R.

There was essentially no change in 2007 demand in comparison to 2006 in the VLCC sector. The Suezmax and the Aframax dirty sectors showed a slight increase of just below 2% and the demand for dirty Panamax vessels decreased by almost 4% in 2007 / 2006 year-on-year comparison. On average across crude and DPP tanker sectors tanker demand growth was flat in 2007.
No growth in tanker demand in 2007 is a significant drop from 6% growth in 2006. This decrease in demand was essentially the reason for weaker freight rates in the first eleven months of 2007 when compared to 2006. The spike in the tanker freight rates in December, 2007 helped the yearly freight averages achieve similar levels of the previous year. Overall, however, increasing fleet capacity and decreasing demand growth interacted throughout the year and caused relatively low freight levels. Another interesting point to note is the demand fragmentation of tanker sectors. For instance, 86% of VLCC demand came from seven major sector trades in 2007. The Suezmax sector was made up of far more fragmented demand with only 58% of the total demand represented in nine trades. The Aframax sector demand fragmentation was in between the larger two sectors with 71% of demand coming from eight major sector trades. The Panamax sector demand was highly fragmented with only 45% of demand representing four major sector trades.
Lastly, decrease in a Marine Fraction of the total oil demand is another indicator of weakening demand in 2007. The Marine Fraction is a percentage of total world oil demand transported on tankers. In 2007 we measured a decline in Marine Fraction from a high of 57.9% to 57% resulting in almost a full percent drop (more details on this subject available in Weekly Note No. 3). Yearly demand comparisons are a key indicator pointing to the strength of annual tanker market. However, tracing accurate measurements of supply and demand interaction on a short-term basis remains a constant challenge.

Oct. 11, 1966 c. s. LIPPMEIER THUMB SCREW TACK Filed Feb. 12, 1965 a R UM E m E W mww EL W W S 6 Q A m 9 VIM United States Patent ""ce 3,277,769 THUMB SCREW TACK Charles S. Lippmeier, 117 N. Lotus, Chicago, Ill. Filed Feb. 12, 1965, Ser. No. 432,217 1 Claim. (Cl. 85-44) This invention relates to improvements in thumb tacks.
Thumb tacks are used in a variety of environments for well known purposes. They generally comprise a relatively flat or slight-1y domed head and a needle-like shank connected at one end to the head, the other end terminating in a sharp point to penetrate an object to be supported by the thumb tack against a tacking surface.
Many tacking surfaces used today are extremely soft and porous. Such surfaces frequently fail to grip the shank of thumb tacks sutficiently tightly to retain the tack shank within the tacking surface. As such objects to be supported by tacks tend to pull the tack shanks out of the tacking surface and the weight of the material causes it to fall.
This invention provides a novel thumb tack comprising a head and a shank in which said shank is secured at one end to said head and tapers at its other end to a sharp point, in which said shank is provided intermediate its ends with a thread decreasing continuously in pitch from the sharp point toward the head, and in which said head is provided with gripping means for manual rotation of said thumb tack as said thread penetrates the tacking surface for support and retention of an object to be positioned against the tacking surface.
It is therefore an object of this invention to provide a novel thumb tack which is securely retainable by soft and porous tacking surfaces.
It is a further object of this invention to provide a thumb screw having a threaded shank receivable by a tacking surface for securely retaining said screw thumb tack in supporting relationship to said tacking surface.
Another object contemplated by this invention is the provision of a thumb screw tack cooperable with tacking surfaces for secure retention thereby in which said thumb screw tack comprises an enlarged head and a threaded shank secured to one major surface of said enlarged head, said head being roughened on the other major surface thereof to provide a gripping surface for a users finger to rotate said screw thumb tack into and out of threaded engagement with a tacking surface.
A further object of this invention is the provision of a novel thumb tack structure having a threaded shank and an enlarged head, the thread of which decreases progressively in pitch from the free end of the tack shank toward the head end of the tack shank.
Also an object of this invention is the provision of a novel positioning assembly comprising a tacking surface, an object to be positioned and a thumb screw tack for supporting and positioning said object to be positioned against said tacking surface, in which said thumb screw tack comprises a head, a shank and a thread on said shank for resisting withdrawal of said shank from said tacking surface.
These and other objects and advantages of this invention will become apparent from the following description and drawings of which:
FIGURE 1 is a side elevational view of a thumb screw tack of this invention;
FIG. 2 is a plan view of the thumb screw tack of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a bottom view of the thumb screw tack of FIG. 1;
FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the thumb screw tack of FIG. 1 positioned for insertion into a tacking surface for supporting and positioning an object; and
3,277,769 Patented Oct. 11, 1966 FIG. 5 is a side elevational view, partially in section, of the thumb screw tack of FIG. 1 in engagement with the tacking surface of FIG. 4.
First referring to FIGURE 1, a presently preferred embodiment of my novel thumb screw tack '1 is there shown. Thumb screw tack 1 includes an enlarged generally planar head 10 and an elongated shank 12 secured thereto as by brazing at its connected end 14.
Shank 12 is of a cylindrical configuration and at its other or free end 16 tapers to a sharp point -17. Shank 12 is approximately one-half inch long and planar head 10 is approximately three-eighth inch in diameter.
Intermediate ends 14 and 16 of shank 12, a thread 18 is provided. Thread '18 terminates adjacent ends 14 and 16 and comprises one and one-half turns. As seen in FIG. 1, the pitch of thread 18 decreases as it approaches its connected end 14.
Thread 18 and shank 12, as shown, are integral. They may be formed as by machining or by any other conventionally used method for forming threads on a shank.
As seen in FIGS. 1 to 3, head 10 is substantially planar and is circular in plan view. The upper surface of head 10 is roughened as by the provision of milling 24 having a first parallel component 26 and a second parallel component 28 intersecting the first. The depth of milling 24 is considerably less than the dimension of head 10 normal to the plane of the upper surface.
The milling 24 of head 10' provides for the frictional engagement of the upper surface of head 10 with an individuals thumb or finger, making it possible to rotate thumb screw tack 1 into and out of threaded engagement with a tacking surface. That is illustrated in FIG. 4. Once thumb screw tack 1 has been threaded into engagement with a tacking surface T through an intermediate object S, object S is supported and positioned against tacking surface T thereby. Even if tacking surface T is of the type that does not normally securely retain the shank of a conventional thumb tack, it will securely retain thumb screw tack 1.
In use, an object S to be supported by thumb screw tack 1 is placed against a tacking surface T and held in place manually. The sharp point 17 of thumb screw tack 1 is then pushed through object S and into tacking surface T until thread 12 contacts tacking surface T. Thereafter the users thumb is placed against milling 24 of head 10 and thumb screw tack 1 is rotated into tacking surface T by a users thumb or finger 18 securely retaining the shank 12 of tack 1 within tacking surface T. In that manner the positioning assembly comprising tack 1, tacking surface T and the object S to be positioned, is completed. Because the pitch of the thread decreases as the connected end 14 is approached, as tack 1 is rotated into tacking surface T, the thread tends to compress and grip the interior of the tacking surface which lies adjacent the thread turns. That tends to enhance the retentiveness of the tack by tacking surface T. To release the object S, it is only necessary to rotate the thumb screw tack in a reverse direction (counterclockwise as seen in FIG. 4) until it is withdrawn from tacking surface T.
While only one embodiment of my invention has been described in detail pursuant to the requirements of the Patent Laws, the foregoing will make it clear to those ordinarily skilled in the art that various modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of my invention.
I claim:
A thumb screw tack comprising an enlarged head having major upper and lower substantially parallel surfaces and an elongated shank having a free sharpened end and a second end centrally secured to said lower major surface of said enlarged head, the axis of said elongated shank being normal to said major lower surface, a thread on said shank comprising at least one turn extending from a point near, but spaced from, said free sharpened end to a point near said second end, said thread being of a relatively great pitch with said pitch gradually diminishing throughout the length of said thread, whereby the end of said thread near said free end extends substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of said shank, said shank adapted to be retained by said thread in the material of a tacking surface into which the threaded shank of said thumb screw tack is inserted, the major upper surface of said head being roughened for frictional engagement of said head by a users finger to facilitate rotational insertion of said threaded shank into a tacking surface.

Made by one of Australia's oldest family producers this wine is a peach.
Not literally, of course, but flavours of peach, pineapple, lemon and lime are in abundance.
Ripe and round, this is a real mouth-filler and one that works brilliantly with roast chicken.
Enough flavour to cope with spicy chicken too, like fajitas.
This wine can be enjoyed now or carefully stored for up to 2 years from purchase

Years ago I had a basketball coach who taught "if you're not getting at least four fouls in a game, you're not playing defense." He didn't like fouls, but his point was, in the process of playing the game aggressively, fouls are going to happen. Fouls are not necessarily indicators of defeat, they are indicators of effort. Likewise, Keyes' approach to rejection is that all successful writers deal with rejection. In his book he provides numerous examples, including Nobel and Pulitzer prize winners, of authors who face rejection even after winning critical acclaim. Rejection is a fact of life, Keyes say, learn to deal with it. Easily stated, but it still hurts. According to Keyes, writers who have not experienced rejection are not sending out enough material; and, writers who don't learn to accept rejection as part of the writing process, are doomed to quit writing altogether.
Keyes is the author of another book titled "The Courage to Write," which I highly recommend. Similar books by other authors which I would also recommend for the aspiring writer include: "On Becoming a Novelist," by John Gardner, and "The Forest for the Trees," by Betsy Lerner.
Ron Atkins is the author of two children's books, Abby and the Bicycle Caper, and his upcoming (January 2005) Abby and the Bike Race Mystery.
The book is clearly the result of a lot of research. (Check out the photos on Keyes' Web site showing the yards of file cabinets in his house.) Keyes doesn't trot out the tired authors' anecdotes that we've all heard before; he serves up a host of tidbits that were new to me. The quotes by masters (such as Tolstoy) about their lack of "talent" are alone worth the price of the book. I also appreciated Keyes' no-nonsense tone. I was expecting New Age warmth and fuzziness, but Keyes pulls no punches. Take his observation that some people who give up writing do so not because they lack talent, but because they are uncomfortable spending long periods alone. That's not a "nice" thing to say, but it's truthful and important to know.
The Writer's Book of Hope delivers on its promise. It provides practical hope and inspiration to writers based on a clear-eyed view of the writing profession. It gave me a new lease on my writing life.
As an experienced, many times published writer, people might think I've got this writing profession figured out. But I don't. And on those days when I'm feeling lonely, dejected and sometimes rejected, I know I can turn to Keyes's book to help me realize I'm not alone in my insecurity and feeling of flakiness.
There are days when I wonder if it isn't too late to go to plumbing school or enroll in the matchbook school of mosaic tiling. Writing does that too you. Plays games with your mind and confidence.
But when those days creep up on me, I find solace in Hope. It makes my green skin turn less bright when I read John Grisham received twenty-some odd rejections and agents turned down JK Rowlings. Yet they persisted. And that, among other things is the difference between writers who stay the distance and those who let the publishing world get the better of them.
Keyes has been there. He's one of us. He's not on a perch talking down to us wannabes. He's simply further in his journey than many of us. And that qualifies him as a leader. And the fact that he's willing to share the good, bad and ugly of this writer's world is generous.
Reading the book is like sitting in an easy chair talking to a wise sage (with a little bit of mischief in his eyes) talking about the world of writing. Eyeball to eyeball. Writer to writer...friend to friend. And by doing so, Keyes offers us that thread that tethers writers together in this profession that is not for the faint of heart. And for that I'm grateful.

What a beautiful well appointed place. Great location to do anything on the island yet not burried in the heart of a tourist trap area. Service from Aloha Condos was perfect, e-mails and directions were direct and informative, we will definately use their services again
We can't say enough good things about our stay at 3601 Kanaloa. For us, it was just perfect and exceeded our expectations. We loved the view of the small bay, enjoyed listing to the crashing waves, and loved watching the activity of the distant harbor (which was an easy 10 minute walk from the condo). We could see the boats paddle out into the ocean, and there was just enough activity to watch to peak our interest, but at the same time be relaxing and it did not take away from the simple beauty of the water. The facility amenities were great with 3 pools, an Oceanside pool, adult pool and a 3rd pool we never got to try out. We even got to sit in the hot tub which was great. As far as the condo, we absolutely loved it. It was so comfortable, tastefully decorated, packed full of everything you could need for your vacation (a cooler, beach bag, beach towels, noodles and boogie boards). It really felt like home, only much better! The living area was spacious and the condo was well ventilated. The unit had a great cross breeze being next to the water, and we were just so comfortable. The only downfall was we stayed only 6 nights/7 days, and we really should have stayed at least 10 days. Once we got to the island there was so much to do, and it was such a wonderful place to stay we wished we stayed longer. I guess there is always next year! We really loved our stay here, thank you so much for sharing your great home with us.
We stayed at Kanaloa for one week in April. It was a last minute decision for us and we were very pleased to find such a lovely place on short notice.
3601 has to be one of the nicest rentals at the resort because of the privacy and wonderful ocean views.With so much activity on the water with canoers and surfers, we were never bored. The condo was well furnished and very well equipped. Better than average for sure. The pools were quiet, sunsets glorious. Location near shopping centre , beaches and golf course, was great. I would definitely give 5 stars.
We have stayed at Kanaloa a number of times. This was by far the nicest unit we have been in. The décor was beautiful and since we both enjoy cooking it was superbly equipped for that. It was very spacious with great views and surf to lull you to sleep. All the employees were extremely helpful when we needed something-airline boarding passes etc. We would definitely stay there again. Thanks for a wonderful stay. Rich/Diane VandeNoord
The home was everything they said it would be in their descriptions. We loved the 'Aloha' feeling the minute we walked in! The Lania was our favorite place! The beds were so comfortable, the linens high quality. Bathrooms gorgeous! They have thought of everything you would need on your vacation. We even enjoyed cooking with everything at our finger tips! This home is immaculate and you can see the care and attention to every detail. We especially had a great time playing Mexican Train Doninoes! Thank you! Of course the grounds and aminities (pool by the sea and even the ping pong table!) were fantastic! We highly recommend this condo to everyone! Believe me you won't regret it.
We stayed in unit #3601 for two night in February 2016 and absolutely loved it. The unit was very clean and the location was wonderful. The ocean waves were so nice at night and cooled the rooms down at night. Very quiet location lots of swimming pools to use. The unit had a wonderfully stocked kitchen and the furniture was comfortable the master bed was super soft if you use the foam topper in the closet. The bathrooms are older but functional and clean. I would definey stay there again for a longer term. The owner was very accommodating and quick to respond. I would give this place 5 stars!! 👍
This was a great condo. Beautifully decorated, very spacious, very well supplied kitchen. Huge master suite. Very easy entrance, close parking. Best of all is the view and sound of the ocean, from the lanai! The location of the whole complex couldn't have been better. Sunsets from the ocean pool were awesome! The grounds are beautifully landscaped, staff helpful and friendly. Will definitely want to stay here next year. Thank you Larry for sharing your home with us.

My company took some old php application over. Due to our preference to ASP.net and to the lack of any documentation from the previous developer, we do not want to spend much resources on developing in PHP. For implementing new features, we will create an Asp.net application that has the same look to the user. We want to develop a kind of 'coexisting' web application. Therefore we must share sessions between an PHP and an Asp.net webapplication project, because there is a usermanagement involved with an existing MySQL database.
(e.g. link 'A' directs to the PHP website, and link 'B' directs to the asp.net application)
How can we share the session between and PHP and an asp.net application?
And does anyone have a hint for this 'coexisting' thing, that might be useful in development?
Edit: IIS 6 would be our targeted server, altough IIS 7.5 would also be an option

I have some code that is designed to open a local master file, make additions, and save the file both by overwriting the master file and overwriting a write protected copy on an accessible network location. This is done by saving the modified file to a temp file and then copying over the other two files.
String tempFileName= "File.tmp";
String fileName= "File.xlsm";
String serverPath="\\\\network path\\";
File serverFile = new File(serverPath+fileName);
if(serverFile.exists()){serverFile.setWritable(true, false);}
This code works well most of the time however, some of the time the code completes successfully without exception but with the network location file deleted. The local master file is saved and updated correctly but the file that should exist on the network is simply gone.
What makes this more difficult is that i have been unable to reproduce this problem under any controlled circumstances. So i ask you for any guidance on how this could occur from a file copy/overwrite operation.
Thank you
I had a hunch and checked network access logs to the server file path. The deletion of the file occurs if and only if the file is being accessed by a user other than the creator but not all of the time. Again though, this is accessed as read only so a user having the file open should not affect overwriting a new version and most of the time does not. Digging deeper it seems that occasionally if and only if the file is opened by another user and java is trying to overwrite the file an AccessDenied Exception is thrown and the file is deleted.
I believe this must be a bug in setWritable() or Files.copy (or a combination) as the file should not be deleted in any case and isWritable() returns true every time. I have tried other methods for setting/UN-setting read only permissions and have come up empty. The current work around that I have in place simply catches the exception and loops until the file is deleted and a fresh copy is in place. This works but is really a hack so if anyone has any better solutions/suggestions I welcome them.

I wanted to put Forrest as the first option for "loyalty" reasons, as the Forrest team has helped us a lot until now. But there are many options of course.
