I'm trying to learn canvas by implementing a pie chart. I've managed to parse my data, draw the slices, and calculate the center of each arc, as noted by the black circles. But now I'm trying to draw one of the slices as though it had been "slid out". Not animate it (yet), just simply draw the slice as though it had been slid out.
I thought the easiest way would be to first calculate the point at which the new corner of the slice should be (free-hand drawn with the red X), translate there, draw my slice, then translate the origin back. I thought I could calculate this easily, since I know the center of the pie chart, and the point of the center of the arc (connected with a free-hand black line on the beige slice). But after asking this question, it seems this will involve solving a system of equations, one of which is second order. That's easy with a pen and paper, dauntingly hard in JavaScript.
Is there a simpler approach? Should I take a step back and realize that doing this is really the same as doing XYZ?
I know I haven't provided any code, but I'm just looking for ideas / pseudocode. (jQuery is tagged in the off chance there's a plugin will somehow help in this endeavor)

Animal Cruelty Can Be Fun!
Regular readers of the Houston Press and Hair Balls have been following the saga of the Bureau of Animal Regulation and Care for some time as we've tried to raise awareness about mismanagement and abuse at the facility. Change is slow to come by, as the City and City Council continue to sit on their hands.
But is animal cruelty always that bad? Now hear me out...I'm not talking about actual abuse, which is horrifying and shameful, but rather fictional abuse, which can be amusing and catharic. Certainly, the problems at BARC are many and serious, but that shouldn't keep us from enjoying it when Fluffy's big screen counterpart takes a few lumps.
Please direct all angry correspondence to Richard Connelly.
5. A Fish Called Wanda (1988)
We're supposed to feel for Ken, the animal lover, as his botched attempts to assassinate the old lady keep going awry, resulting in the deaths of her beloved pets. Left unspoken is the undeniable fact that no one will miss the yappy little monsters anyway.

4. The Thing (1982)
Watching this clip, it's easy to make the argument that the alien is actually the villain, what with the tentacles and slime and torso bursting and all. But think about this, if those poor dogs hadn't been caged in the first place, they might be alive today. We have seen the monster, and it is Richard Masur.
3. Fatal Attraction (1978)
The boiling of the Gallagher family rabbit reaches heights of camp not seen since Joan Crawford beat the hell out of little Christina with a wire hanger. The only thing missing is the Henry Mancini soundtrack (NOTE: this clip is slightly edited so you don't actually get to see the rabbit...blame YouTube).
2. Mr. Show (1996)
The violent relationship between Nathan and Sulu the iguana is a lot like the interaction I have with my cat, except instead of whacking her with a book until she dies I sputter obscenities until she takes a shit in my messenger bag.
1. There's Something About Mary (1998)
Ben Stiller's career makes a lot more sense when you watch this and realize he hasn't made anything remotely as humorous since, and that the dog was the funniest part.
BONUS: National Lampoon's Vacation (1981)
For our first commenter. I can't believe I forgot this one.
"Do you know what the penalty for animal cruelty is in this state?" "No sir, I don't." "Well...it's probably pretty stiff."

Five Takeaways from the SEC's 2016 Business Continuity Guidance Update
Last month, the SEC issued a guidance update for registered advisers regarding how funds (and their service providers) plan for potential business disruptions. Eze Castle Integration's Certified BCP Planners have reviewed the guidance and recently shared their thoughts on how hedge funds and private equity firms can meet the SEC's growing expectations and standards with regard to business continuity practices.
Read on for five takeaways from the SEC's business continuity guidance update or scroll down to watch our full, 30-minute webinar replay.
Include all All Key Components of Your Firm
When writing a BCP, firms undoubtedly remember to create plans for their physical office facilities and technology systems, but it is important that you don't overlook other important components that drive the well-being of your firm. This includes data/colocation centers, employees, activities and dependencies on critical third parties. You could face an array of issues affecting one or more factors within your firm, so it is important to implement a business continuity plan that not only addresses potential risks but also outlines comprehensive protection methods.
A BCP is a Living Document
Internal participation is a fundamental driver for a successful BCP. From senior management executives to representatives from Human Resources and Compliance, internal business continuity contributors need to be informed of and up-to-date on policies and procedures. The BCP should also take into consideration the ideas, recommendations and changes brought forward from other departments within the firm.
Remember: A business continuity plan is dynamic, therefore changes and challenges faced need to be transparent with all parts of the company.

How Today's Private Equity Firms are Managing and Mitigating Risk
Today's private equity funds are increasingly being compared to their hedge fund counterparts and, as a result, are also facing more scrutiny. When it comes to managing and mitigating risk, PE fund managers are wrestling with growing threats on the security front and beyond and mounting pressures from the likes of the SEC and other industry best practice standards.
Security and Business Threats for Private Equity
Security threats abound for financial services firms, and private equity firms are not immune. From the inside out, the risks to PE firms grow daily, with savvy and experienced hackers looking to target financial firms – and perhaps more concerning – untrained and unaware employees blindly putting their firm's operational standing in danger.
Beyond cybersecurity, however, there are also business threats to consider. Non-security incidents – everything from minor, incidental business disruptions to large-scale, regional impact events – can also wreak havoc for private equity firms otherwise unprepared to resume business functions. Downtime may prove to be less concerning for a PE manager than his hedge fund counterpart, but that does little to calm uneasy clients and investors who expect operations to run smoothly at all times.
PE Firms Feeling the Regulatory Pressure
The above security and business threats pose a serious challenge for private equity firms today. But beyond managing those risks to satisfy a fund manager's own inherent desire to protect his/her firm, private equity firms also face significant and growing pressure from external bodies to meet operational excellence standards that continue to develop and evolve.

Personal Emergency Planning: Business Continuity Tips for Employees
As hedge funds, private equity firms and other financial services organizations work diligently to develop and maintain organizational business continuity plans, an item often lost in consideration is employee personal planning. While firms should focus on how their businesses will recover from a disaster scenario or disruption, it's also helpful to be proactive in addressing how employees can recover from these scenarios if family members/friends are affected or if the employee himself is affected outside of working hours. Here are a few tips for employers:
Plans and resources are helpful in getting employees more organized, but for employers, finding time to develop and gather these materials can be difficult. It might be easier to have employees gather together and discuss emergency preparedness techniques and why they are important. Consider providing some resources such as binders or forms where employees can write down contact information of insurances, utility vendors, neighbors, etc. Encourage employees to research local/regional emergency preparedness information as well. Getting the conversation going and providing some resources or relevant websites can better ensure that planning activities happen prior to a disruption.
Alternate locations are not just for the workplace. Employees' family members and roommates should have established meeting spots if evacuating the residence is necessary. Two locations are recommended: one close to the residence and another perhaps slightly father away (e.g. down the street or at a neighbor's house or apartment), in the event it's not safe to be at/near the closer meeting site.

Examining the Evolution of Investor IT Due Diligence
The below information is an excerpt from Eze Castle Integration's 2016 webinar: The Evolution of Investor IT Due Diligence.
Investors have long been asking questions about firm operations and even technology. But with the way IT has evolved over the last 5-10 years, it's no wonder investor inquiries have changed in both size and scope. Of course, in addition to technology evolution, we've also seen influences on the regulatory side, as the SEC continues to examine and evaluate firms' security practices, which ties heavily into technology.
In looking back, it's not unfair to say that 10 years ago, technology was what we'd call a "check the box" category. An investor due diligence questionnaire may have been one or two pages and focus mostly on firm investment history, performance, etc. On the IT side, it may have said "are you using an outsourced IT provider" or even "do you have a disaster recovery system" but beyond that, there was very little inquiry into the types of technologies being used at hedge funds as well as the protections in place to mitigate risk.
Of course, times have changed and now we see investor DDQ documents upwards of 5-10-20 pages in length and asking great levels of detail about technology, cybersecurity and operations. So let's talk a little bit more about the influences for this due diligence evolution.

Four Business Continuity Considerations for Vendors
Whether you're shopping around for new outsourced providers/business partners or just reevaluating them, it's always important to consider the vendor's approach to continuity and how that could impact your business. If your firm has a comprehensive business continuity plan in place and you conduct regular BCP tests, you might think your responsibility ends there. However, if the service providers that you engage with do not also have proper disaster recovery systems and business continuity plans and test said plans regularly, they are exposing your firm to serious risk and may be the weakest link in your continuity or recovery.
To properly conduct review and discussion with vendors and business partners, firms should have a series of questions and discussion points ready. Four critical areas you may want to review include continuity program activities, disaster recovery system details, business continuity procedures, and communication practices.
Continuity Program Activities: This would include ensuring that the vendor or business partner regularly reviews and updates necessary plans and procedures. Do they conduct ongoing tests of their disaster recovery systems? They should also be testing and exercising their business continuity plan. Lastly, it's also critical that they provide employees with necessary training on these plans, both at the outset of the plan implementation and at least annually.
Disaster Recovery Systems: During vendor discussions and evaluations, ensure your business partners are identifying the location or locations where data is backed up. They should also identify recovery time objectives (RTO) related to that data and compare that desire with the RTO outlined within the existing plan. This is important as it relates to recovery time, since it will outline at which point after a disaster you are expected to have access to critical systems and data. If RTOs are unclear, you run the risk of being unable to work or access data or information you need, potentially disrupting clients and even violating contracts or regulations.

Hedge Fund Operational Due Diligence: What Managers Need to Know
The information below was originally derived from the expert panelists who spoke at a 2010 Eze Castle Integration event. Given how important this topic is we've updated the article to reflect today's market.
The subject of hedge fund operational due diligence is one that has risen to the forefront for both hedge fund managers and investors in recent years. Prior to the economic downfall in 2008 and high-profile investment scandals made infamous by Bernard Madoff and others, hedge fund due diligence was viewed as an unnecessary assignment.
Historically, there has been a general lack of transparency within the hedge fund industry; larger funds, particularly, used to balk at investor inquiries. They figured there would never be a shortage of investors, so there wasn't a need to spend extra time satisfying their needs.
Due diligence, as a process, did not gain significant importance until recently. in the past, the responsibilities associated with it would often fall under the role of a CFO, CCO or other executive – someone who had very little time to devote specifically to due diligence. But as the industry has evolved over the last several years, so has the need and desire for operational due diligence.
So what exactly has changed?

How to Create A Cyber Security Culture + Employee Security Awareness
Did you hear the story of the Central Bank of Bangladesh that lost $81 million to hackers? It happened in February 2016 and goes like this. The bank believes hackers executed a hack that allowed $81 million to be taken from the bank's foreign exchange account at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. It appears that the initial point of entry for the hackers was a spear-phishing email, potentially sent weeks before the fraud took place, which allowed the criminals time to remotely monitor and probe the bank's networks without detection.
This is just the latest advanced threat facing financial organizations. Beyond cyber technology (which is essential), organizations need an internal culture of security, an ongoing, organization-wide commitment to defining and adhering to careful, thoughtful policies that reduce or eliminate "people vulnerabilities" through assessments, awareness, and education.
We recently published a Four Step Guide to Creating a Culture of Security. Here are some highlights – you can read the full paper HERE.
1. Create a Computer Incident Response Team
Your first step is to find the right people who can oversee your information-security policies and be part of a "Computer Incident Response Team." Although IT professionals are responsible for overseeing and maintaining your computing infrastructure, you also need business users to play a central role in your security initiatives.
After all, they're the ones who use these resources – and the ones who can represent the biggest vulnerabilities and risks. While the team's responsibilities can vary, many CIRTs are active in several key areas:
Create a Plan
Create Training Programs
Respond to Incidents
Communicate with Peers/Industry Groups

How to Launch a Hedge Fund: Cap Intro, Legal & Tech Tips
Successfully launching a hedge fund is a complex endeavor. Not only must emerging managers evaluate traditional deployment strategies, but consider current factors influencing the financial landscape.
Last week, Eze Castle Integration presented a webinar, "How to Launch a Hedge Fund," featuring an expert panel that addressed some critical areas for consideration, notably capital introduction, legal and technology. There was quite a bit of content discussed during the 1-hour event, so we've pulled out some key takeaways.
Click here or scroll down to watch the webcast in its entirety.
Capital Raising (Paul Schultz, Director of Capital Introduction, Wells Fargo Prime Services)
Examine both content and context, i.e. cash inflows and outflows as well as the "big picture" that accounts for volatility
Be aware of the kinds of investors coming into the hedge fund space. Large and institutional pension plans are currently the largest investor base.
Be prepared when speaking to investors. Target those who have a history of being receptive to founder share class and who may offer lower management and performance fees.
Show investors that you have a 3+ year budget for working capital without any performance fees.
Have a well thought-out blueprint. Clarity and intention make all the difference.

NFA Cybersecurity Interpretive Notice Goes Live Today - March 1, 2016
Today's the day.
The National Futures Association ("NFA") Interpretive Notice Regarding Information Systems Security Programs goes into effect. The NFA's Interpretive Notice to NFA Compliance Rules 2-9, 2-36 and 2-49 entitled Information Systems Security Programs requires Member firms to adopt and enforce written policies and procedures to secure customer data and access to their electronic systems.
The Cybersecurity Interpretive Notice applies to all membership categories--futures commission merchants, swap dealers, major swap participants, introducing brokers, forex dealer members, commodity pool operators and commodity trading advisors.
Rather than taking a 'one-size-fits-all approach,' the Cybersecurity Interpretive Notice adopts a principles-based risk approach to allow Member firms some degree of flexibility in determining what constitutes "diligent supervision," given the differences in Members' size and complexity of operations, customer types and counterparties.
But whatever approach is taken, the Cybersecurity Interpretive Notice requires Members to adopt and enforce an information systems security program (ISSP) appropriate to its circumstances.
Information Systems Security Program Key Areas
Similar to the SEC's expectations, the Cybersecurity Interpretive Notice requires a written information security program to contain:
A security and risk analysis;
A description of the safeguards against identified system threats and vulnerabilities;
The process used to evaluate a security incident, including impact and incident response; and
Description of ongoing education and training related to information systems security for employees.Executive-level participation and annual review of the information security program is expected. Additionally, firms must provide employees training during the onboarding processes as well as periodically during employment.

Hedge Fund Technology Tips for New Startups, Part 2
The following is the second excerpt from our new whitepaper, Launching a Hedge Fund: 10 Keys to Success. To read part one, click here.
Develop an IT budget for your first 2-3 years.
Operating capital may be limited in the first few years after your launch, so careful budgeting and long range planning will serve your firm well. Your information technology budget should include priorities and figures for at least two to three years, including infrastructure/hardware and software requirements. Some questions you'll want to consider:
How many offices are you launching with? Do you plan to open additional offices in the near future?
How many users do you have on day one? How many can you expect to have in years 2 and 3?
Where are your offices located? Are there cost differences between domestic and international offices?
What are your trading practices and how does this impact your budget?
What kinds of systems do you need? (Order Management, Portfolio Accounting, Risk Management, CRM, etc.)
Ensure your technology budget coincides with your firm's growth plan. Do you expect to grow quickly? Open new offices? Expand internationally? You will need to account for these changes.
Understand hedge fund regulations and how they affect your firm.
Governmental oversight of the financial industry has evolved dramatically in the last decade. Hedge funds, private equity firms and registered investment advisers now operate in a world where they are beholden to regulatory bodies with growing expectations and requirements. When launching your hedge fund, you'll need to be clear up front with any responsibilities you may have to any applicable agencies – in the United States, that means the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Are you required to register? If so, represent your firm accurately and be descriptive of your operations. If not forthcoming, you may open up your firm to serious regulatory and criminal prosecution.

Something's been bothering me lately.
I've got that itch.
You do too.
It's like being a kid and getting into scrapes because it's so close to the end of school you could touch it. We get that restless itch and nothing fits—everything's slightly irritating.
I love to work, and believe in it. I dig it. I dive in and immerse myself in it. But in order to be excellent at work, we need phenomenal playtime too.
We need summer.
(It's almost here!)
Fall is great for playing in the leaves. Winter is full of snowball fights, skiing, snow angels and cocoa by the fire. Spring is dancing in the rain and picking dandelions. But the real play time—the play that picks us up, shakes out the cobwebs and finds our smile again—lives in the country of summer.
I believe in summer, with my whole heart.
I believe in living barefoot from April through October.
I believe in hammocks
I believe the smell of fresh-cut-grass, wild honeysuckle and wet skin can cure just about anything.
I believe that cherries are meant to be eaten seconds after being picked.
I believe in whole afternoons of nothing but cloud watching, daisy picking and playing thumb war.
I believe in counting fireflies, skipping rocks and reading each other's tan lines.
I believe in splishing, splashing, diving, floating and soaking—as often as possible.
Summer isn't for grown ups. Summer is for the mermaids and pirates lurking underneath.
The ocean, the lake, the creek, the pool, the waterfall, the sprinkler. Summer is in you—just add water.
I believe in outside more than in.
I believe in getting muddy.
I believe the best kisses are watermelon flavored.
I believe in homemade lemonade served in Mason jars.
I believe in sunburned noses, Popsicle-red lips and grass-stained knees.
I believe in hot pink toenails, lime green shorts and polka-dot bathing suits.
I believe in skinny dipping.
I believe in bonfires and s'mores.
I believe in flip flops, sundresses and checking each other for new freckles.
I believe dancing under the stars.
I believe in summer.
Like elephant barefoot, sunburned and blissful on Facebook.

My husband and I reserved a queen room in the trellis section. Although the room was smaller than I thought, it was very clean and nicely decorated. The bathroom was another story. Our shower door wouldn't close all the way causing water to drench the floor. There was also no place to place your toiletries. The bathroom window was extremely difficult to open and close.
The outdoor spa was awesome. It was set back in a very private fenced in patio. The water was warm and clean. We really enjoyed our evenings in the spa.
Overall, we had a very pleasant stay and would return. Loved the restaurant and the gift shop and bakery were a wonderful addition.

it was obvious that these seven guys weren't normal. sure, they look like they could kill every single fangirl they had. which they do actually. but apparently, their image was swag.
What happens in the chat room? Who knows, but we can be sure that the very unique personalities of Vixx will keep it (hopefully) entertaining!
Wun Chora was just your average girl and that is until she somehow got the phone number to all the members of Bangtan. She swore it was a mistake since all seven of her friends had the exact same number except for one or two members... but let's just say she doesn't show it, but she really is grateful to have made the mistake. Who wouldn't be anyway?

Sorry if it's boring, but I really had to write this down to feel better, and this was the perfect place. Thank you for lett

text: So, you thought I'd never be here making an Ubers team, eh? Well, wrong! I'm here to present possibly my best Ubers team, peaking 1430 on the Pokemon Online ladder, and 1950 on the Pokemon Showdown! ladder. Without further ado, let's get into the team itself. Teambuilding So, I wanted to start out by making a Rain team, because of Kyogre being such the dominate force it is. I went with a Scarf variant. After that, I knew I'd need a solid rapid spinner, so I went with Excadrill. Sub Swords Dance Excadrill is a fun Pokemon, so I wanted to rest it out. So, I knew I'd still need Stealth Rock, so I went with the largest pain I could find, Ferrothorn! With it's massive bulk, and ability at being a team player, it was an obvious pick. Next, I wanted another sturdy wall that couldn't be broken; so I instantly thought "Lugia". Since it gets access to Multiscale, it's pretty much impossible to one-hit it from full. With it also getting Roost, you can just keep getting back up to full health, eventually stalling your opponent to death! The next member came fairly quickly - Palkia. Due to it's massive Special Attack stat, ability to abuse Rain AND Sun, and having decent enough bulk, I wanted it. At first I used Haban Berry, but that changed later on. I then realized I needed a Scarfer, so I went with a Scarfer that can work with any team - Genesect. With access to U-Turn, and a versatile movepool, I went with it, plus I really didn't need anything else. After this, I realized my team was flawed, majorly. For starters, I was running a Genesect with a spread to speed tie with base 95 scarfers running a neutral nature. ._. I also realized Ferrothorn's spread was hideous, and that it was garbage. Then I learned Haban Palkia really isn't that good, and learned of specific Pokemon that crippled my team, so yeah, I went on a massive fixing spree. Firstly, I made Ferrothorn fully Special Defensive, so Specs Kyogre was less of a problem. Then I gave Excadrill Stealth Rock instead of Substitute, and Ferrothorn Spikes instead of Stealth Rock, now my team was getting better. Next, I made Palkia Choice Specs for mega wall breaking power. Then I replaced Genesect with Zekrom, as a better way to truck through Kyogre, and as a decent Sleep Foddering thing. I also replaced Lugia with Physically Defensive Giratina-O. This gave me a spin-blocker, as well as a reliable answer to Arceus-Extremekiller, and Offensive Groudon. Finally, my last change was Special Defensive Kyogre instead of Scarf, so I had a better Ghostceus answer. Finally, the team was done, and I was having complete and utter success with it. At A Glance! Kyogre @ Leftovers Trait: Drizzle EVs: 252 HP/ 252 SDef/ 4 SAtk Calm Nature - Scald - Sleep Talk - Roar - Rest Meet the King of Ubers himself, Kyogre! Kyogre is arguably the best Pokemon in Ubers, for many reasons. For starters, he has a great amount of versatility, he's got an immense amount of bulk, and he hits like a freight train. I opted for the Special Defensive Rest Talk set for one and only one reason - Calm Mind Ghostceus. Ghostceus can set up relatively easy on this team, but since Kyogre can take unboosted and +1 hits for days upon weeks, it is stopped in it's tracks. Ghostceus also can't set up reliably against Kyogre because of Roar. Roar also helps though for fazing the opponent's team once I have at least Stealth Rock up, and a single layer of Spikes. Excadrill @ Leftovers Trait: Mold Breaker EVs: 196 HP/ 252 Atk/ 60 Spd Adamant Nature - Rapid Spin - Stealth Rock - Swords Dance - Earthquake Oh Excadrill, how loved you are. Excadrill is on this team for many reasons. For starters, it's always going to set up Stealth Rock fairly easily, as the only common Stealth Rock setters that can take it on reliably are Offensive Lead Dialga, and Groudon, and even then I have my checks and counters to them. I love this set as well for a few reasons. For starters, spin blockers can't ever switch on safely because of Mold Breaker. No matter what, the only spin blockers that should ever be run in Ubers will get hit for at least 40% by an Earthquake. Another great thing about this set is if I predict them to try and block my spin, I can set up a Swords Dance in their face on the switch, and then smash them the next turn with a +2 Earthquake. Easy, right? My spread is quite easy to explain, as well. I run just enough speed to outpace any base speed 95 Pokemon with no speed investment. I tossed the rest into HP, because this let's me take an unboosted Focus Blast from an Arceus-Ghost at full. Quite the convenience. Palkia @ Choice Specs Trait: Pressure EVs: 252 SAtk/ 252 Spd/ 4 HP Timid Nature - Draco Meteor - Fire Blast - Hydro Pump - Thunder Honestly, am I required 3 lines of description for a Specs Palkia? Fine, Palkia acts as the wall-breaker of the team. With it's already sky high special attack, backed up with Choice Specs shoots it to unimaginable levels. Hydro Pump and Draco Meteor are obvious - great STAB moves that wreck everything in their path. Fire Blast is for abusing Sun if the opponent sets it up, and it also torches Forretress, Ferrothorn, and the occasional Scizor, even in the Rain. Thunder is for solely abusing Rain, and it let's me smack Kyogre in the face more reliably and harder than Draco Meteor. Zekrom @ Choice Scarf Trait: Teravolt EVs: 252 Spd/ 252 Atk/ 4 SAtk Naive Nature - Bolt Strike - Sleep Talk - Volt Switch - Outrage This thing is an absolute monster. Zekrom already holding a massive 150 base Attack, backed up with more speed with the Choice Scarf, what more can you ask for? Bolt Strike and Outrage are very obvious - great STAB moves that should always be used on Zekrom. Volt Switch was included because as a replacement to Genesect, I needed Zekrom to be able to provide the same pivot switching abilities it could do with U-Turn. Sleep Talk is very helpful as well, because it let's me sleep fodder this guy to Darkrai's voids if needed. Ferrothorn @ Leftovers Trait: Iron Barbs EVs: 252 HP/ 252 SDef/ 4 Def Careful Nature - Spikes - Power Whip - Thunder Wave - Leech Seed Ferrothorn is honestly just a great Pokemon overall. I love to use it in OU, and in Ubers as well. This is mainly due to it's fantastic bulk, and it's ability to be a team player with it's arsenal of support moves. My spread is very obvious and standard for Ubers, Max HP and Special Defense so I can tank Specs Water Spout well from Kyogre, and retaliate with either a T-Wave to cripple it, or use Power Whip to make Water Spout do nothing. Spikes is obvious, residual damage on grounded opponents. Thunder Wave is great for crippling fast switch ins such as Mewtwo, Darkrai, Kyogre variants, etc. Giratina-O @ Griseous Orb Trait: Levitate EVs: 252 HP/ 252 Def/ SDef Impish Nature - Shadow Sneak - Will-o-Wisp - Roar - Dragon Tail This is the glue to my team, Giratina-Origin forme. Giratina holds the team together for many reasons. One, it spin-blocks, which is a MUST for this team. Two, it checks Offensive Groudon. This is HUGE because if Groudon gets up a Rock Polish and I can't burn/faze it out, it's pretty much an auto-loss for me, because if Sun is up, NOTHING survives. Will-o-Wisp is for crippling heavy hitting Physical attackers, such as Arceus-N, Groudon, and it helps for wearing down Ferrothorn as well. Shadow Sneak helps get clutch kills on low health opponents, and priority is always nice. Dragon Tail/Roar are for fazing out set up opponents, or for wracking up damage from hazards. Threat List! Major Threats Ho-oh Absolutely NOTHING switches in safely to this thing. My only resist to both it's dual STAB moves is Zekrom, and even then, it can't risk the burn or potential Earthquake. Kyurem-W Same story with Ho-oh, I can't easily switch in to it. Best way to play around it is hope it's not scarfed, and set up hazards early and quickly. Rayquaza Let's be honest, Rayquaza is a threat to all teams, just because of it getting V-Create and Earthquake. This makes it so nothing can switch in to wall it's Dragon STAB, whilst being able to take it's other hits easily. With this, force it out as much as you can and hazards play a HUGE role with taking down the Sky Snake. Minor Threats Arceus-N Even though I have Giratina-O to take the blunt of the attack, Lum Berry Arceus is still an issue, just because of Will-O-Wisp's shaky accuracy, and Shadow Claw doing a solid 45% to this guy. Best way to play around is to scout for Brick Break, and if it doesn't have it, go to Ferrothorn and Leech Seed. Arceus-Ghost Well, this is a bit less of a threat than the others, just because they tend to run bulkier spreads. If you have Rocks up and aren't needing to spin anymore, go to Excadrill before it can set up and get some damage off with Earthquake. You can take at least one Focus Blast guaranteed, as long as you are at full health. Playing with the team! Basically, the general idea of the team is to stack hazards, keep them up with spin-blocking, and pressure the team with heavy hits from Zekrom and Palkia. Almost always lead off with Excadrill, as long as the opponent doesn't have Dialga or Groudon. If they do, lead with Kyogre and Scald turn one. But the main thing is, get hazards up as quickly as possible. If your opponent leads with something like another Ferrothorn, set up Spikes early, and then go to Excadrill, either set up Rocks or spin depending on what your opponent has. Well, this is the team! I hope you like it and if you want to test it, I'm sure you'll be able to get 1700+ relatively easily. Importable Kyogre @ Leftovers Trait: Drizzle EVs: 252 HP / 4 SAtk / 252 SDef Calm Nature - Scald - Sleep Talk - Rest - Roar Palkia @ Choice Specs Trait: Pressure EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Timid Nature - Draco Meteor - Fire Blast - Hydro Pump - Thunder Ferrothorn @ Leftovers Trait: Iron Barbs EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SDef Careful Nature - Spikes - Leech Seed - Power Whip - Thunder Wave Giratina-Origin @ Griseous Orb Trait: Levitate EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SDef Impish Nature - Will-O-Wisp - Shadow Sneak - Roar - Dragon Tail Excadrill @ Leftovers Trait: Mold Breaker EVs: 196 HP / 252 Atk / 60 Spd Adamant Nature - Earthquake - Rapid Spin - Swords Dance - Stealth Rock Zekrom @ Choice Scarf Trait: Teravolt EVs: 252 Spd / 252 Atk / 4 SAtk Naive Nature - Volt Switch - Outrage - Bolt Strike - Sleep Talk

Mike Shiver feat. Bo Bruce - Still HereS107066 - May 14th, 2012
It's been a while since we last heard a Mike Shiver tune kick in. But the Swedish producer makes up for it. Featuring the mind-shivering vocals of Bo Bruce, 'Still Here' is the perfect prog-trance to welcome spring.
Quailty over quantity, is a saying Mike Shivers lives up to. The young Swedish talent delivers time and again, releasing masterpieces such as 'Give Me Faith', 'Everywhere You Are' and 'Slacker'.
If there's one thing he's good at, it's finding the perfect balance between the touching warmth of vocals and the rousing beat of a good prog-houser. And so he does on 'Still Here'. A strong vocal piece that'll get in under your skin in no time.

The staff was extremely rude to me, the bed was very uncomfortable, breakfast was not included in the price and cost $20 extra per person. It was very difficult to find the house, and the décor lacked any charm or appeal. I would not return to this B&B
Staff fantastic - very friendly Breakfast great and not too early
The staff were genuinely very friendly and the food in the bar was above average & reasonably priced. Our dogs were made most welcome.
There was no bath only a shower and had booked executive double room but was given twin on arrival and was told most rooms are twin but the room was really big, clean & comfortable so we did not ask if there was a double available with bath.
Clean and tidy.With very helpful staff.Very good breakfast.Will be staying here again.
Amazing hotel - The hotel was classy, smart and decor was modern and sophisticated. The staff were friendly and helpful and the bedrooms were amazing. The view we has of the Forth Rail Bridge was wonderful and the room was decorated will attention paid to every detail. Complete luxury from the moment we arrived. The bar was well stocked and not over priced. Despite the hotel being fully booked with a wedding party staying the bar had plenty space for my husband and I to enjoy a few romantic drinks before bed.
I would have prefered a bath as well as a shower in our room however the shower there was very powerful, hot and big enough for two. If the hotel hat a swimming pool it would perfect.
Comfort of the bed. Great shower and toiletries.
I do not like the room layout as a huge mirror blocks out any daylight. Also, there should be an icemachine located on at least every other floor. Poor lighting for sightimpaired guests.
The staff was the most accommodating I have ever been associated with. Bent over backwards to help us in every way.
The mattress needs to be thrown away in room 67. It was horrendous. There was an obvious hole in the floor under the linoleum in the bathroom. The tub had mold growing on the grout.
This hotel is fantastic value for money - the staff are friendly and efficient, the food is simple and tasty, the rooms are comfortable and clean. One of the best 3 star hotels I have come across.
the friendly staff ,the very clean modern room,breakfast area,it was all lovely.
Very friendly and helpful staff
An excellant location for the kingdom of fife & 30mins into Edinburgh but what a walk and views onto the forth road bridge only 2 mins from hotel.
The package was half board Romantic with champagne & chocolates on arrival and sadly we are still to recieve the chocolates had to prompt staff about the package and as for half board we got £20 of our food bill so much for half board.
Excellent location to access the Forth Bridge without the hassle of the local Edinburgh traffic.
Price!, We paid the most of all the guest staying at the hotel that weekend and were most annoyed at being told this by the manager infront of our party
the staff were very helpful and hotel was clean and warm well done all
i liked my stay
Hotel was fine for one night but basic and would not be best for more than a single night. However bearing that in mind it was great value for a place to sleep (under £10 per person)

We're not the seller
At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.

Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.

|[jira] Resolved: (JCR-574) MsExcelTextFilter throws Exception. Repository is not startable
|Mon, 09 Oct 2006 12:50:20 GMT
[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-574?page=all ] Marcel Reutegger resolved JCR-574. ---------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed Fixed the LazyReader class to also catch runtime exceptions when initializing the reader from the text filter implementation. Fixed in revision 454360 of the text filter module. Thank you for reporting this issue. Please note that you can work around this issue by temporarily disable the text filters when restarting jackrabbit. Well, it's not a real workaround, because you'll get into this issue again when a similar excel file is uploaded and the text filters are enabled. > MsExcelTextFilter throws Exception.

Cooking & Recipes
Cooking With Spices: Anise
Anise (Pimpinella anisum) is a flowering plant, part of the Apiaceae family, native to southwest Asia and the eastern Mediterranean regions. It grows to about three feet in height, with leaves that are long and dense at the bottom of the plant and feathery with white flowers at the top. Its dried fruit is the spice known as both anise and aniseed (not to be confused with an unrelated spice known as star anise).
Anise is known for both culinary and medicinal uses. It has a taste similar to that of licorice and fennel. In biblical times, anise was a form of currency, and remains a highly valued crop in Palestine and other areas of the Middle East.
There are many health benefits of anise. As a medicine, anise can act as an expectorant and treat runny noses. It can aid in digestive complaints and stimulate appetite. In India, it is common to chew anise after a meal as a digestive remedy. It has also been used to induce menstruation and birth, increase lactation, address menstrual cramps, and improve libido. Topically, anise may be helpful in treating lice, scabies, and psoriasis. In traditional Arab medicine, essential oil of the aniseed has even been used as an anticonvulsant.
Today, research has documented anise may be helpful in alleviating gastrointestinal issues, including stomach ulcers. An animal study from Saudi Arabia showed that anise inhibited damage to the stomach lining, replenished gastric wall mucous, and decreased acid secretion in rats with already existing ulcers. Human studies are needed to document this protective effect.
Anise has been used in ways that are neither medicinal nor culinary: steam locomotives in Britain incorporated capsules of aniseed oil into the metal bearings so that the distinct smell would warn of overheating. Anise is used in both fishing and hunting as a way to attract prey. It is also available as a fragrance in soap, perfumes and creams.
In culinary settings, anise oil is added to a variety of products, from alcohol and liqueurs (such as ouzo, absinthe, pastis, Sambuca and Jagermeister) to candies, breath fresheners and some root beer sodas. Seeds can be added to baked goods and other desserts, cooked vegetables (especially root and cruciferous vegetables), soups and meats. In Mexico, anise is a key ingredient in a hot chocolate drink called "atole de anís," and it is found in the traditional Italian pizzelle cookie.
Dr. Weil's take on anise:
Most Americans encounter anise rarely, but it's a worthwhile addition to any kitchen. Chewing aniseed is a time-honored remedy for both intestinal gas and bad breath, and I've found it effective for alleviating both conditions. My other favorite use is to add the seeds to steaming or baking root vegetables; it adds a welcome depth of flavor.
You can buy anise as an extract or in seed form. Keep both away from light and heat, in a tightly sealed jar, for up to six months.

Eddie Money
Edward Joseph Mahoney, 2 March 1949, New York City, New York, USA. Legend has it that Brooklyn native Edward Mahoney was a New York police officer when first discovered by promoter Bill Graham (he was, in fact, a NYPD typist). Nevertheless, under Grahams managerial wing, Mahoney became Eddie Money and produced two hit singles in Baby Hold On and Two Tickets To Paradise from his self-titled debut, to begin a career that saw him maintain arena-headlining status in America with a series of consistently fine R&B-flavoured AOR records. His 1978 release Life For The Taking produced two more hits, Rock And Roll The Place and Maybe Im A Fool, as Money built a strong live reputation that freed him from the constraining need for radio or MTV airplay to sell albums or concert tickets, although the hits continued to come. The mid-80s release Wheres The Party? saw a slight dip in form, but Money stormed back...

ST. LOUIS – Canaan Baptist Church in St. Louis not only set Acts 1:8 as a mission focus verse, but the church with a Sunday attendance average of 575 practices this. Pastor Daniel Carr said the verse challenges believers to reach Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and to the uttermost parts of the earth. For Canaan, four major projects comprise the Jerusalem segment. "We've identified our Jerusalem as the greater St. Louis area. First, We did an Easter egg drop from a helicopter. We did this for … [Read more...]

Water in a dry, thirsty land
KANSAS CITY – In the fall of 2013, five members from Norfleet Baptist Church here set out to East Africa in their first effort to reach a people group thirsty for the living water of the gospel. Since that time church members have reached hundreds of people and have helped to plant five churches. When they return this fall, they expect to witness 200 baptisms.

In Indonesia, opportunities for healing abound
INDONESIA (BP) – It wasn't tropical tourism that first brought Rosemary Brackey* to Indonesia more than a decade ago. It was her desire to offer healing hands to the country after the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami killed an estimated 170,000 Indonesians alone. At the time, Rosemary was a telemetry nurse, monitoring patients' vital signs for Liberty Hospital in a Kansas City suburb. She and her husband Howard* had felt called to global missions but were waiting for the Lord's timing. Nearly 88 … [Read more...]

KANSAS CITY – Red Bridge Baptist Church, Kansas City, owns and operates the Haiti Home of Hope for impoverished Haiti children. In January, they celebrated their 13th anniversary.

Doctor works to open eyes to gospel
LESOTHO (BP) – "We really need an ophthalmologist, one who specializes in disease of the eyes in children." The request by missionary Teresa Flora was hard for pediatric ophthalmologist Dave Klink to ignore, since he had been praying about how the Lord might want him to serve. Klink, who is also a neuro-ophthalmologist and served for 28 years with the U.S. Navy, listened as Teresa spoke by Skype with a small group at River Oak Church in Chesapeake, Va., who were interested in an … [Read more...]

SPRINGFIELD – From Montreal, the Middle East and Ecuador to Branson and the homes in their own neighborhoods, the leadership and members of Ridgecrest Baptist Church here have committed to transforming lives through the gospel.

IMB missionary remembered for passion to serve
MISSISSIPPI (BP) -- Each night, International Mission Board missionary Ray Hodgins prayed for the Deaf. He saw their faces. He knew their names. He desired for the lost Deaf around him to know Jesus. "Who will tell these folks about Jesus if we don't?" he had asked. "Who?" Hodgins, 52, died of a heart attack on Jan. 18 while on stateside assignment in Mississippi.

Persecution fails to thwart gospel inroads
CENTRAL ASIA (BP) – Christian aid worker Gary Warrior* was sitting on the floor in a Central Asian village with a congregation of about 20 people several years ago, getting ready to share about "the cost of discipleship." Someone made the suggestion to go around the room and share their testimonies. One woman simply said, "Oh, I'm just very blessed and I'm so thankful to be here." Her friend elbowed her: "Explain to him your testimony, tell him what's happening in your life with God." But … [Read more...]
Clinton church raises $2.5 million for missions
CLINTON – Two-and-a-half million dollars seems like a lot of money. Many Missouri Baptist churches will not handle that kind of cash in several decades or a hundred years.

After a mission celebration which highlighted the need of missionary efforts, the First Baptist Church of Clinton began sending out mission teams and doing missions in their local community. … [Read more...]
