Scripting for X Productivity
Linux offers graphical user interfaces (GUIs) with high resolution, multiple windows and menus. But with a GUI, human/computer interaction is the real speed bottleneck: as long as doing something requires ten mouse clicks in ten different points, it takes the same amount of time, regardless of the hardware. At the command line, the traditional UNIX answer is the toolbox philosophy. You can automate anything with a script and connect small specialized programs with pipes. A third solution combines the two approaches and is easy and powerful enough to suit most needs. Any stock X environment, regardless of the window manager or desktop environment, can become much faster and more flexible than it usually is.
We have more fingers than hands and 101 keys to one mouse. Although drawing and similar tasks are quicker with mice or tablets, often our fingers must stay on the keyboard anyway. If a command or choice requires one single user action, pressing a key or two is much faster than clicking mouse buttons, not to mention RSI issues. Also, when we do touch the mouse, it should do what we need immediately.
Keys and mouse buttons can be shuffled around or mapped to specific meanings (accented vowels) or GUI actions (maximize window) using xmodmap. One of its beneficiaries has been left-handed people, who use it to reverse the order of the mouse buttons. Add this line in .xinitrc, or put the quoted part in a .xmodmaprc file:
xmodmap -e "pointer = 3 2 1"
Lately, xmodmap has been used to make mouse wheels work correctly under Linux (see Resources). It also can make wheels work faster by binding your most frequent actions to those extra keys available on the latest keyboards. For example, the magic line for an IntelliMouse Explorer is:
xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 6 7 4 5"
When speaking about keyboards, modifier means a key that changes the effect or state of other keys. The standard modifiers are Shift, Ctrl, Lock, Alt and five more simply called modN, with N=1,2..5. xmodmap can assign these meanings to any physical keys. The most frequent case is probably the swapping of the Ctrl and Caps Lock keys, described in the man page. On the same note, the meaning of the Windows key could be changed to mod4 in this way, assuming its keycode is 115:
xmodmap -e 'keycode 115 = Alt_R Meta_R'
Keys can be programmed to start applications too, but this is specific to window managers. In Blackbox 0.65, for example, keystrokes are mapped to programs with the bbkeys utility. A line like the following in $HOME/.bbkeysrc:
KeyToGrab(F1),WithModifier(None),WithAction(ExecCommand),\ DoThis(xterm -geometry 80x25 -e mutt)
would allow you to start mutt in an 80 × 25 xterm window by simply pressing F1. Many other window managers allow such bindings; check their documentation.
As already mentioned, any shell script can be given windows to enable communication with the user, and any graphical client (and X itself) can receive direct input from text programs. The first case happens when a shell script needs user interaction, but it isn't possible; say the user would rather die than type or there isn't a keyboard (Internet kiosks). The second scenario includes users who need to pass some unpredictable text to an X client from console programs without manual cut-and-paste capabilities. This does happen in real life: mutt and lynx may be all we need to read e-mail and surf the Net, but what if some e-mail or Web page says "Check out this movie preview", and you want to start Mozilla on that page with one click.
Starting an X window from a script has been possible for at least ten years, with tools like the now defunct Xscript. A modern solution is Xdialog, a GTK+-based widget generator. The script in Listing 1 shows an almost real-life example; it lets the user choose the best ISP, the account to be used and where to log the connection report. It then starts a traditional pppd/chat script (called netconn in the example), passing to it all the parameters collected graphically. Let's examine the GUI side in detail.
Listing 1. GUI Front End for an Internet Connection Script
#! /bin/bash /bin/rm -f /tmp/netsettings echo -n "PROVIDER=" > /tmp/netsettings Xdialog --menubox "ISP selection menu" 20 40 5 \ "ISP_1" "Lowest price in business hours" \ "ISP_2" "More economic on weekends" \ "ISP_3" "Fastest ftp server" 2>> /tmp/netsettings RETVAL=$? # add control code here echo -n "ACCOUNT=" >> /tmp/netsettings Xdialog --inputbox "Enter account name" 10 25 \ "son" 2>> /tmp/netsettings echo -n "LOGFILE=" >> /tmp/netsettings Xdialog -fselect /tmp 20 80 2>> /tmp/netsettings source /tmp/netsettings netconn $PROVIDER $ACCOUNT $LOGFILE
The script starts removing the old version of the netsettings file, which stores all the user choices. For each variable needed by the netconn script, an assignment line in bash syntax is written to /tmp/netsettings. The left part simply is echoed without newline (echo -n). The second part, the actual value chosen by the user, is captured by Xdialog.
The first invocation (see Figure 1) allows the user to choose the best ISP. We also added some explanatory text (ISP selection menu) and specified the height (20) and width (40) of the window, as well as the height of each entry (5). In the case of Figure 1, after the user presses the OK button, /tmp/netsettings will contain this one line:
Error checking can and should happen by saving the exit code of every call to Xdialog in a variable (RETVAL in Listing 1) and checking it to know what the user really did. We omitted this code for brevity, but keep in mind that a RETVAL of 1 means "Cancel pressed"; 255 means the user closed the box, and 0 means a choice actually was made.
The second Xdialog command allows the user to type in an account name or to accept the default value (Figure 2). The last one (Figure 3), displays a file selection window in which one can type or select with the mouse the name and location of the current log file. At this point, all the user choices are in /tmp/netsettings, so we simply must source that file and launch the connection.
Xdialog offers many more types of input widgets, from radio buttons to range slides and calendars. Quite a few of these provide feedback to the user. The author uses the --msgbox option, for example, to pop up a window listing how many messages have been downloaded by fetchmail, sorted by account. Other possibilities include gauge and progress bars, info boxes with timeouts and file display windows. Consequently, Xdialog can be attached to scripts doing CD burning, audio and video playback, backups—you name it.
What if the same script must be used when X is not running? No problem; menus and boxes can be drawn in character terminals, too. Simply use the character-oriented equivalent, dialog.

One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of criteria. It's pretty easy to string these tools together to build even more powerful tools, such as a tool that finds all of the .log files in the /home directory and searches each one for a particular entry. This erector-set mentality allows UNIX system administrators to seem to always have the right tool for the job.
Cron traditionally has been considered another such a tool for job scheduling, but is it enough? This webinar considers that very question. The first part builds on a previous Geek Guide, Beyond Cron, and briefly describes how to know when it might be time to consider upgrading your job scheduling infrastructure. The second part presents an actual planning and implementation framework.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

Teenager denies pulling fire alarmJuly 31,2013A Bomoseen teen denied charges that he pulled a fire alarm and created a disturbance at Fair Haven Union High School.
Kyle Stone, 17, pleaded innocent Monday in Rutland criminal court to misdemeanor charges of triggering a false alarm for emergency services and disorderly conduct. The false-alarm charge carries a maximum sentence of one year in prison.
According to an affidavit, police and fire personnel responded to a fire alarm June 5 at the high school. Firefighters determined there was no fire, and a review of video surveillance footage showed Stone pulling the alarm, affidavits state.
Minutes before pulling the alarm, police said, Stone was kicking boxes in a school hallway and when asked by a teacher to stop, he replied with obscene language.

My psychiatrist just upped my Zoloft does to 150 mg. I also take 300 mg of Welbutrim and CR Ambien every night to sleep. I have had a daily temporal headache in the late afternoons- I don't know what is causing it? Too much or not enough of something. I still have anxiety and depression issues as well as self esteem issues and don't think I really want to switch out any meds. Any suggestions would be helpful.
Headache from medication?

Hello outsidesue. Nice to see you post. Its been awhile. Well, I did some reading, and as you know I've been on zoloft, (as well as wellbutrin and ambien but different times). I forget how long its been since you began zoloft, at this point will have say its the zoloft because thats the only medication that has been increased. Having said that, you might wait a bit longer, see if they headaches diminsh, and if they don't, mention it to your doctor. Hope you get to feeling better sue.best wishes to you,
I started the abien in March, Welbutrim in April and Zoloft last June 25 mg to 150mg. I don't think I'm grinding my teeth. I have been at these dosages for 24 days. I see the doctor again at the end of the month.
Very well Sue. I do think its the zoloft. I'm afraid that unless they really increase to the point of being unbearable, you'll have to put up with the headaches untill you see your doctor, its not advisable to change any of your doses at the moment untill you see her/him.

Data modeling is a complex task for novice designers. This paper conducts a systematic study of cognitive complexity to reveal important factors pertaining to data modeling. Four major sources of complexity principles are identified: problem solving principles, design principles, information overload, and systems theory. The factors that lead to complexity are listed in each category. Each factor is then applied to the context of data modeling to evaluate if it affects data modeling complexity. Redundant factors from different sources are ignored, and closely linked factors are merged. The factors are then integrated to come up with a comprehensive list of factors. The factors that cannot largely be controlled are dropped from further analysis. The remaining factors are employed to develop a semantic differential scale for assessing cognitive complexity. The paper concludes with implications and recommendations on how to address cognitive complexity caused by data modeling.

Indian Classical & Fusion JazzOctober 25, 2015, 5:00 pm
On October 25, World on Stage presents the Brooklyn Raga Massive Crossover, an exciting concert featuring gifted up-and-comers from the worlds of Classical Indian Music and Fusion Jazz. Dedicated to showcasing a diverse array of Indian classical music, BRM believes in expanding the audience for Indian music by breaking conventions – as you'll see in this Crossover musical event.
The BRM Crossover will feature several extraordinary artists, including the versatile classical Indian musician Arun Ramamurthy, who makes soulful sounds with the Carnatic violin. Arun specializes in Carnatic music, while also pushing the boundaries of the form through genre-bending projects, including his own jazz trio and his Carnatic Sundays concert series in New York City's West Village.
Also headlining the concert is Jay Gandhi, a devoted teacher and performer who has captivated audiences around the globe with his mastery of the bansuri flute, using it to make sounds that are at turns haunting and thrilling. Trained under bansuri masters, Jay's musical interests span the Indian sub-continent, reaching across the African diaspora and into the American classical and jazz traditions.
Outstanding jazz stylings will certainly be in the spotlight for this event, as we welcome artists like New York-based upright and electric bassist/composer Michael Gam, who is well-versed in both cutting-edge modern jazz and Indian classical music. With his group the Om Gam Ensemble, Michael is experienced in creating East-meets-West sounds.
The concert will also boast the talents of accomplished musicians such as jazz percussionist Sameer Gupta on tabla and drums; composer and jazz virtuoso Sharik Hasan on piano; and emerging jazz and Hindustani musician Pawan Benjamin on saxophone.
The Brooklyn Raga Massive Crossover event is sponsored by the Namaskaar Foundation's World on Stage. With a mission to promote, preserve, and raise awareness of the traditional performing arts culture of India and beyond, World on Stage is passionate about presenting the next generation of exceptional artists.
To see these brilliant young superstars-in-the-making as they play a dazzling program of Indian classical music and jazz fusion, catch the Brooklyn Raga Massive Crossover concert on Sunday, October 25, 2015 at 5pm at Cole Auditorium at Greenwich Library (101 W.

fnarf and poe are famous. you too, frizzelle.
Slog comments FTW!
her blog post was way more positive than you made it sound, supportive of the enterprise but merely saying that she'd give it to some and not others if she were in charge of the whole thing. what critic wouldn't? she loses all credibility, though, at least when it comes to non-fiction writing, when she says tim egan or charles mudede should get a genius award.
No joke, wf. Egan and Mudede are as overrated as they are different from each other. They share a long reach and a weak grasp.
SuttonBeresCuller are overrated too. They're bold, but prone to gimmicks.
I'd like to see the Genius awards highlight artists who the local critics haven't already been fawning over -- there are plenty beyond those Hackett seems comfortable endorsing. Fortunately, Jen Graves seems less beholden to the herd mentality than either Hackett or her predecessors at the Stranger.
I know you guys must get a zillion comments like this every year, but I can't help it: every year when the winners are announced, I think: where's Jim Woodring? If there's anyone I've ever met in 15 years in Seattle who approaches that grossly overused moniker, it's Jim.
If Mudede's a genius, I'm an eight-legged postage stamp.
Also, giving prize money to poets is a really bad idea. You're only encouraging them!
I agree with @3. Her post is evenhanded. She agrees with some, disagrees with others and provides cogent reasons why. What more can be said? Art isn't objective, it is subjective. Quality and value is opinion, perspective, not fact. That's what is so great about it. Art can cause some people to fall to their knees, and cause others to yawn and move on.
jeez you guys and regina hackett - get a room!
PI blogcheck! Fnarf is taking over the world! Damn!
But I have to ride along with Mr. Poe.
I think both the awards and her criticisms are excellent. There are no objective criteria for awards. I think Hackett is absolutely right about Alexie, who is probably the most accomplished Washington-born writer ever (if not artist period), but she's wrong about Raban, who is streets ahead of anyone else in the area.
I even think SBC is a defensible pick, seeing as how it was made in 2005. They wouldn't get my vote today.
Hey Fnarf -- Be honest. Have you ever read Heather McHugh? I ask because you are smart and good.
I think shes right about Susan Robb too, no one ever brings her up in this argument!
"If Mudede's a genius, I'm an eight-legged postage stamp."
Lean into light and live, Jason Josephes. I can see your pale and feeble legs moving beneath the postage stamp, going nowhere fast.
I picked (as if it matters, having no $ or prizes cred) Mudede and Egan because they are opposite ends of the nonfiction spectrum, Mudede's head in the clouds and Egan's feet in mud.
Christopher, I will not be honest with you. I will lie and say "sure, Heather McHugh, know her stuff well, blah blah". That way you won't know what a Philistine I really am.
I will note that she is a poet, which is hard for me. I like my poets to be dead, like Philip Larkin. I understand that that is my problem, not hers. Her lovelyly-named website spondee.com is very nice, but I must insist that using the word "lovelyly" permanently disqualifies me from talking about poetry.
OMG!! Finally! My hours and hours of time spent at Slog have amounted to something! REGINA HACKETT ACKNOWLEDGED MY EXISTENCE! WOOOOOOO!!!
I have no idea who she is, but I think her Mudede comment is gelastic splan-tastic [sic].
Fuckity Fuck Fuck!!!
Look what Fucking Dan Fucking Savage Fucking wrote in Fucking October Fucking 2002
Excerpt from \\\"Say Yes To War\\\" by Dan Savage October 2002
\\\"War may be bad for children and other living things, but there are times when peace is worse for children and other living things, and this is one of those times. Saying no to war in Iraq means saying yes to the continued oppression of the Iraqi people.\\\"
I don't like being associated with the constant spamming involving Dan Savage's Say Yes To War excerpt, brought to you in part by (daily) spammer Captain Inconversant.
Hey! Let's all smoke meth and go on a shopping spree! Props to Ecce Homo! Word bling bling.
When Dan Savage wrote this in Oct. 2002 he was saying that the death of children in the Iraq war was acceptable.
\"War may be bad for children and other living things, but there are times when peace is worse for children and other living things, and this is one of those times. Saying no to war in Iraq means saying yes to the continued oppression of the Iraqi people.\\\"
So why don\\\'t we apportion Dan Savage his fair share of the carnage in Iraq? Let\\\'s arbitrarily assign him responsibility for the death of, say, an eight year old Iraqi girl. That sounds about right doesn\\\'t it? That still leaves 649,999 dead Iraqis to be apportioned out to Bush and the neo-cons and other war supporters.
Well, she's a Sherman Alexie fan so she is obviously off her nut...
And you think she would have seen that memo by now; you know the one, about how the Genius winners all win based on their lovemaking prowess...
the Stranger staff is insatiable...

Australian athlete Genevieve LaCaze has stormed the stage during Kylie Minogue's performance at the closing ceremony of the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.
As Minogue left the stage to change costumes midway through her performance, LaCaze jumped onto the stage and started dancing with some back-up dancers before being escorted away by security.
The steeplechase runner was celebrating her 24th birthday.
The impromptu performance was the talk of social media, with many wondering what they had just witnessed live on international television.

America: This Is Like Obama's Katrina, But Worse
The polls show widespread disapproval.
A poll by the Washington Post and ABC News shows that 69 percent of Americans give the government negative marks for its handling of the oil spill, compared to only 62 percent who viewed the government's response to Katrina negatively two weeks after the hurricane hit. In defense of President Obama, who the hell are all these people who approved of the government's response to Katrina? Oh Republicans. [ABC News]

Department of Sociology
I hope my news is an encouragement to current students (particularly those who hope to go on to graduate school) and to faculty in particular (without whom I would not be where I am!). I credit much of my success to the mentoring, support, and encouragement I received in my three years there.
Thinking of a degree in Sociology? Here's what a recent survey of our alumni showed they have to say about their USM Sociology degree: "I love it! I feel like I apply my education to my everyday life constantly. I still refer frequently to some lessons or teachers I had." (2000 graduate)

Sweet potatoes are not a hard vegetable to love. And even better, they are a very nutritious food source for you as well. With a high vitamin C and beta-carotene content, a low glycemic index, and high levels of potassium, it has been labeled as a "superfood". The most nutritious way to eat a sweet potato is with the skin on, but for best results in this recipe you will need to peel them. This is a simple and delicious treat that often pleases the most difficult guest. Serve instead of bread or mashed potatoes to gain all of the health benefits of this super tuber!

The Outram Playcentre hopes to boost numbers to avoid closing
some of its programmes.
The centre runs sessions on Mondays, Wednesdays, and
Thursdays and caters to 15 families.
Outram Playcentre co-president Rachel Wilson said the centre
was looking to boost its numbers to make it economically
viable to afford a paid supervisor, especially for its Monday
Boost to School Programme.
The centre received funding based on enrolments and even
finding three or four more children for Boost to School would
make a difference, she said.
''We just want to get it out there that we do have a good wee
centre,'' she said.
The Boost to School programme consisted of semi-structured
sessions aimed at getting children aged 3 and a-half to 6
ready for school.
The group had a set amount of time to focus on such things as
the weather or numbers.
The rest of the time was free play, and the older pupils
would go to Outram School for music with the new-entrant
''It's a good stepping stone before heading to school,'' Mrs
Wilson said.
The general playcentre groups catered for children aged up to
5, with children being encouraged to learn while they played.

I really need some help.
I'm using inkblot along with webcomic. For some reason by header won't extend across the top of the page. I've tried both making the headers larger than the suggested 960x240 and smaller than that. Nothing changed.
I either need to know how to make the header extend across the page or be centered. Right now it is "left aligned" from the looks of it, and looks terrible. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yesterday afternoon we heard the profound and heart-rendering news about Ven. Tapey, a young Tibetan monk from Kirti Monastery in north-eastern Tibet, committing what is certainly a self-immolation.
As I pen my thoughts here we do not have complete information about the incident (China has confirmed it, however, after a day later), but what is clear is that this is yet another indication of the desperation of the Tibetans, who are not able to tolerate the Chinese Government's attitude towards His Holiness the Dalai Lama and the issue of Tibet.
Reports suggest that the monk was raising slogans reflecting such a message and that he was carrying a Tibetan flag on which a photo of the Dalai Lama was pasted. It seems the immediate cause for this courageous act by the monk was the Chinese authorities' interference in the monastic program of undertaking their annual prayer festival called Monlam.

Palm Promises More webOS Phones in 2011
New webOS devices readied for early next year.
It was already announced that HP and Palm were readying webOS-powered tablets for next year, so it's only logical that the companies are preparing a new batch of webOS-enable smartphones for early 2011.
Details on these phones, including processor speed, carrier, and so forth. A logical assumption would be that the devices will launch with webOS 2.0 onboard, even that's not a given. VentureBeat reports that at least one of the new devices will be be a keyboard-less touch-based device with a high resolution screen similar to iPhone's. The project's codename is Mansion.
Expect further announcements on Palm's new devices as it gets closer to the new year or another shareholders call. Until then, dream away, webOS supporters.

Unanswered: HOW TO: Resize a Window programmatically - as maximized???
I need a *maximized* window to resize programmatically (as the size of stuff around it resizes) - while remaining maximized.
While I'm resizing, the window is changing size as it should be via window.setSize().
But, as soon as I'm done resizing, the window snaps back to what looks like the restore size. Worse, the maximize / restore button indicates it's still maximized.It's just one's and zero's, what could go wrong?
13 Feb 2012 4:43 PM #2
The resize event of the Ext.Window fires one last time, passing in the restored width/height. So, I'm guessing something internal to the Ext JS 4 framework sets the maximized window back to a restored state after I stop resizing it.
Why ?????????????It's just one's and zero's, what could go wrong?
13 Feb 2012 5:07 PM #3
This appears to have something to do with the Ext.Window's layout. The window's size is the (maximized) size I set it to, but something in the layout is retaining the original size and firing a resize event after I stop resizing to set the window back to its restored size rather than leave it at the maximized size I set it to via window.setSize.
Does anyone know what to do to either reset the layout's height / width it is using? Or avoid the layout from overriding my resized height / width with the original window size???It's just one's and zero's, what could go wrong?
14 Feb 2012 8:45 PM #4
Browsed over the Sencha code some...what's the reasoning for it to hang on to a 'dirty size' and restore the window out of my control?It's just one's and zero's, what could go wrong?
14 Feb 2012 10:43 PM #5
Can you show your code ?
8 May 2012 2:33 PM #6
Hello ben.gillis,
I'm not sure if that's what you are looking for but I figured something today that might help you out.

That Was Then Antiques, Jewelry, and Collectibles
Barbara, Deerfield Beach, FL
Because of the exquisite contrast of the "wedgwood" blue color against the bright gold of the decoration, this 10 1/2" plate would display beautifully! The gold edging on the exterior rim is 1/4" and the rim decoration is 1 3/4" and features exquisite handpainted raised gold flower urns which overflow into more flowers and scrolls. There are 3 of the blue and white panels along that rim. The inner gold border measures 3/4" wide. You will note that the plate is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, repairs. The only gold loss is one pencil tip wide spot on the innermost skinny ring which almost touches the wider 3/4" band (see closeup up view in photo). Background color is off-white.

Not all food items maintain optimum serving conditions in a chafer, so be sure to plan your menu accordingly. Click here to learn what foods are best in a chafing dish and what foods to avoid.
Want to keep items, such as grilled cheese sandwiches, warm without cooking or toasting them? Try lining the bottom of the chafer with fresh herbs. They smell great and protect food from direct heat!
Chafing dishes, affectionately known as chafers, are used to keep hot food hot while displayed on a buffet table. Chafing dishes utilize a water pan, which fits into the frame of the chafer and is filled with about a half inch of water. Once the water pan is in place, food pans are placed securely over it, leaving no gaps at the edges. The water pan is then heated by either a sterno candle or an electric source, and the heated water in turn keeps food hot and ready.
Because of this easy-to-use operation, chafing dishes are a caterer's best friend. However, just as on a grade school playground, one should be careful when choosing one's best friend.
Here are some traits to look for:
Chafing dishes come in a variety of shapes, the two most common being round or rectangular. Round chafing dishes are best for side dishes and sauces, while rectangular chafing dishes are typically used for main courses. Other shapes, such as half-round or oblong chafing dishes, can be purchased based on a caterer's particular buffet style preferences.
Rectangular Chafing Dishes
Typically used for entrees, and they use between one and two canisters of chafing dish fuel, also referred to as scanned heat.
Shop Rectangular Chafing Dishes
Round Chafing Dishes
Typically used for desserts or side dishes. They provide the most even heating, as all sides are equidistant from the central heat source.
Soup Chafing Dishes
Provide a more elegant option for catering than soup kettles. They range in capacity from 7-11 quarts and keep soup piping hot.
Lid Design
Chafing dishes are available with three different lid types.
Roll-top lids
Chafing dishes with roll-top lids are ideal for buffet displays, as customers do not need to hold the lid or set it down as they serve themselves.
- FSW Recommends Update International 8 Quart Roll-Top Chafing Dish
Hinged lids
Chafing dishes with hinged lids are typically designed so that the hinge does not allow the lid to flip over and land on other buffet items. Hinged lids also feature a locking mechanism so that they can be locked in the open position. For these reasons, these chafing dishes are also excellent for buffet setups.
- FSW Recommends Browne-Halco 9 Quart Harmony Full Chafer
Removable lids
Chafing dishes with removable lids are generally less expensive than hinged or roll-top chafers. However, these chafing dishes can make creating a seamless buffet setup difficult, as customers will need to hold the lids or look for somewhere to set them, or the food will have to be left exposed.
- FSW Recommends: Thunder Group 8 Quart Economy Chafer
Lid Tips
Removable and Roll-top chafing dish covers are best-suited for buffet display. Chafing dishes with hinged tops can be difficult to arrange in a buffet, and when handled by guests have the potential to create a mess.
Power Source
Chafing Dishes in the 19th Century"Oh, what has become of my children three?" My mother then inquired of me."One's on exhibit as a talking fish;The other was served in a chafing dish."Yo ho ho, the wind blows free,Oh for the life on the rolling sea!-from The Keeper of the Eddystone Light
(Disclaimer: FSW does not recommend serving children at your next catering event.)
Chafing dishes are manufactured with two possible power sources.
Electric heat
Electrically heated chafing dishes are best for events in venues with strict fire codes. These chafers also have the added distinction of never running out of fuel. However, the negative side to electric heat is that there must be an outlet nearby, and caterers often do not know if this will be possible before the day of the event.
Canned heat
Canned heat uses chemicals to create a flame and is placed in a holding area below the dish. These chafers are more portable than electric chafers and give operators the type of adaptability often essential in the catering business.
From 19th century fish tales to 21st century buffets, the chafing dish is a tried and true companion for any professional catering business.

Hotel Waverly
The Hotel Waverly is a four-storey low-rise hotel located in downtown Toronto. Opened in 1900, the hotel was built for J.J. Powell. It is among one of the oldest Toronto hotels in continuous operation.[1]
Hotel Waverly is located at 484 Spadina Avenue on the northwest corner of Spadina Avenue and College Street, adjacent to Toronto's Chinatown. It is also close by the local landmarks The Silver Dollar Room and The Scott Mission.
The hotel's central location is close to major attractions such as the Art Gallery of Ontario, Queen's Park, The Royal Ontario Museum and Kensington Market, making it a prime target for redevelopment. It enjoys proximity to major transit routes via the 506 Carlton Streetcar and 510 Spadina Streetcar.
The Waverly's interior rooms are modest but comfortable. This accommodation provides low-cost housing benefiting Toronto's transient community as well as monthly residents. Its proximity to the mission has kept rental rates low, attracting customers who are looking for a deal in downtown. The hotel offers 24-hour laundry facilities, free parking and snack counter.
Though he denied it, evidence points towards James Earl Ray staying at the Waverly while hiding out in Toronto after shooting Martin Luther King, Jr..[2] It was also the longtime home of poet Milton Acorn; several of his most acclaimed works depict the life in the neighbourhood.[3] In popular culture the hotel was the setting for the opening scene of the Elmore Leonard novel Killshot and was also featured in the film version.[4] The hotel is also briefly pictured in the music video for "Games for Days" by Julian Plenti (a.k.a. Paul Banks),[5] and the music video for "Man I Used to Be," by Canadian musician k-os.[6]
The Wynn Group, a Toronto-based rental group and building developer, have proposed to construct a 20-storey building with 202 rental units aimed at Toronto's university students.[7] The Silver Dollar Room would be reopened on the first floor.[8]

I've read the YQL guide, and I keep reviewing http://developer.yahoo.com/yql/guide/yql-o...entables-paging and I have been looking at a few examples, but I'm still left pretty confused how YQL paging works.
The problem that I am trying to tackle is creating a YQL open data table for the Mozilla labs Jetpack Gallery's jetpacks pages http://jetpackgallery.mozillalabs.com/jetpacks
You flip through the pages of jetpacks with the ?page query variable and there is an order_by query variable. You can only see 10 results per page.
- List item
- Should I use or ?
- How do I specify the query parameter that indicates the page? in this case it is the 'page' query parameter.
- I am assuming I should use:
<urls><url>http://jetpackgallery.mozillalabs.com/jetpacks</url></urls>is this correct?
- In the execute element, I will need to extract the details for each jetpack on the page? if so how would I organize that for the response.object?
Can anyone provide some help? or perhaps point to a data table that I can look at as a reference? or better documentation on how paging works?

What is the difference between the eigenfunctions and eigenvectors of an operator, for example Laplace-Beltrami operator?
An eigenfunction is an eigenvector that is also a function. Thus, an eigenfunction is an eigenvector but an eigenvector is not necessarily an eigenfunction. For example, the eigenvectors of differential operators are eigenfunctions but the eigenvectors of finite-dimensional linear operators are not.

We just got our diagnosis two weeks ago and started OT last week. I don't know if it's timing or what, but since then he's been so much worse. Uncontrollable during the day and he's wet the bed 3 nights in a row now. He's also been wanting his carseat straps super tight, wants to be tightly tucked in his hammock and been requesting straight protein for meals. I can't figure out what is going on with this sudden change, and if bed wetting is related somehow?
bed wetting related to spd?

Sometimes when they start OT, they become more disregulated before they start getting better. We saw that especially when we started brushing and therapeutic listening. The tight straps and blankets indicate he is seeking input, and usually pressure = calming. Have they mentioned weighted blankets to you at all or a pressure vest? I have heard that Under Armour shirts/shorts are actually really good and providing deep pressure input and help for calming.
As for bedwetting, many SPD kids struggle with recognizing their signals. So it might be that with him being disregulated at the moment he is having more trouble than usual. The other thing can be that he simply isn't ready to be dry overnight. As I understand it, being dry overnight has to do with a specific hormone and in some kids it takes longer to kick in? I would get in touch with your OT and tell her he is worse so that she knows and she may make suggestions or change how she approaches his therapy. I hope that helps a bit. Let us know how you get on.
Should I tell DS's OT therapist that he still wears a pullup at night? We have never gone more than a night or two dry so he still wears a pullup. (He's 6) He has only been in OT for about a month.
mom to Aidan 12-06-06 and Arabella 12-04-08
He's been overnight trained for over a year with only a few accidents, part of why this is throwing us for a loop. But since his seeking has increased so much at the same time I was wondering if there was a correlation. Yes, we are starting brushing with him. She suggested he may benefit from a weighted blanket, but at the time his was doing fine with his giant stuffed dog (the Costco ones that are like 5ft, he sleeps under it). I have had to sit him on my lap, bear hug, and rock with him at a restuarnt this weekend too. I hope it gets better! Thanks for letting me know this isn't an abnormal response.

I would tell your OT everything that could possible be related to SPD. Rather they have too much info (although I don't think there is such a thing) than too little. Again, it may just be that it is hormonal. Read here http://kidshealth.org/teen/diseases_conditions/urinary/enuresis.html .
If it is sensory, your OT should be able to help, otherwise your family doctor might be able to make some suggestions.
Also, just so that your questions get seen, feel free to open your own thread, even if it mirrors another thread already open. I would hate for someone not getting feedback because their question gets missed.
Hang in there. It should start getting better. I would still mention it to your OT as she may have some really good calming strategies. Other things that work for us, is blowing bubbles or making a bubble tower. (a bit of soapy water in a jug and let LO blow into it with a straw so it makes a tower of bubbles) Chewing gum will also help. Something I did at the beginning of the year when DD was sick and waking up repeatedly again, is taking a big fleece blanket and swaddling her with her arms out. The deep pressure did wonders for her. Good luck!

My son never woke up dry until he was almost 8 years old. His OT was able to refer us to the bed wetting specialist at the children's hospital and he was dry within about 3 weeks and hasn't wet the bed since.
Mom of 2 boys- 2005 and 2003 sensory seeker (diagnosed at age 7)
I contacted his therapist and she said sometimes the first couple weeks can be crazy when the kids have a bit more unstructured time in the gym while she's talking with caregivers and figuring out what they can do.
I put him in a pull-up tonight (I take them camping so luckily had some leftover) and the really bad part is he was super excited about wearing one. He goes 'baby mode' sometimes and I think all this extra attention is encouraging it :/ I hope the bed wetting is due to exhaustion from being so wild during the day now that I think about it.

Had the longest day of door-knocking yet today. Perfect weather for it. Part of the reason: the houses were far apart and some were difficult to find. Another: People were in a talkative mood, which is fun. I learned a lot.
Tomorrow, I travel to Alexandria for a screening interview with the state nurses organization.
A particular delight today: a 92-year-old woman who thinks old people live too long, including herself. She's just tired. Company all weekend. But she's doomed by genes: Her father lived to be 100, and her mother 98. She's not in the least depressed, and had great humor. But she's just had enough.
I said, "well, it is great that you're still living on your own."
"Great?" she said, with a roll of the eyes. "It is a lot of work!"
She just finished washing clothes, weeding the garden and doing the dishes from the weekend.
I said well, if you're still around in November, I sure would appreciate your vote.
"Oh, I'll be around," with a sigh. "And you'll have my support!"
We parted with a good laugh.

Spectral data will also be used to monitor changes to scrolls unseen by the eye.
Woburn, Massachusetts – October 24, 2008
Advanced imaging technology from Cambridge Research & Instrumentation, Inc. (CRi) was used in the most recent, ambitious Dead Sea Scrolls imaging project in Israel to reveal previously unseen text.
Dr. Gregory Bearman, retired Principal Scientist at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and current president of Snapshot Spectra in Pasadena, CA, travelled to the Israel Museum in August with one of CRi's NuanceTM multispectral imaging systems to take near-infrared pictures of the scrolls. The spectral data will be the key to a new conservation program to monitor the scrolls for changes. While some changes can be detected visually, the spectral data will quantify them and provide early warning before they are visible to the human eye.
CRi has developed sophisticated biomedical imaging systems that use wavelength-based information to reveal unseen details in specimens. These systems are used to assist with research in disease diagnosis and therapy development. Now, the system has been used to uncover original writing hidden on the discolored parchment and papyrus of the Dead Sea Scrolls.
"Today, with the recent development of advanced biomedical imaging technology, we have access to much more sophisticated imaging algorithms and easier-to-use digital instruments such as CRi's Nuance system," points out Bearman. "CRi's core technology and integrated imaging solutions are among the best in the business."
Indeed, now that there are digital images of the Dead Sea Scrolls available in conventional color and as multispectral image data, Bearman's goal is to make the entire collection available to everyone via the Internet over the next one-to-two years.
Nuance microscopy systems are in use worldwide by biologists and pathologists to uncover molecular markers in cancer cells and other specimens. And the same technology is found in CRi's MaestroTM imaging system used to detect tumors and other features in-vivo for pharmaceutical research and development.
"We concentrate on the biomedical imaging market, but as evidenced by Dr. Bearman's work, CRi's systems have potential applications in many areas and over a wide range of disciplines," explains George Abe, CRi's President and CEO. "While we work to improve health care on a daily basis, it is also rewarding to see our products being used to preserve antiquities for generations to come."
Download high-resolution images of the Nuance system and a portion of the Dead Sea Scrolls, as well as the Nuance system and both the Dead Sea Scrolls and life-science specimens on the microscope.

upside-down stamp is the universal message that the sender loves you...
i'd have a heart attack if they DID pay them. in fact, i'm pretty sure you have to PAY to write FOR them. for the rest. of your. LIFE.
Why did this letter "just" arrive when it was mailed last Thursday in Seattle? In city mail usually takes one day to arrive.
Does SGN pay any of its writers?
Why did this letter "just" arrive when it was mailed last Thursday? In city mail usually takes one day.
In my city mail only takes one day to get from the sender to the recipient.
And it gets its moneys' worth.
Do they pay their proofreader.
Do they HAVE a proofreader?
at #1: it was my understanding that an upside-down stamp was some kind of international DISTRESS signal. At least, that's what my family has always thought. For the entire first term of the George W Bush presidency my mom put all her stamps (even those she sent from her business) upside down, as we were a country in "distress" because the election had been stolen, etc, etc.
She definitely wasn't trying to tell the utilities company that she was in love with them. :)
@7: I know the SGN had serious spellcheck problems 8 years ago, but these days I can't find so much as a typo.
I guess they hired somebody new, or they figured out what all those red underlines meant.
The SNG dosn't need to pa ythere A&E writers Its all they can do to k eep them fead.
A&E writer #11 shows just how hard the SGN proofers must work.
seriously, though, THIS is news? I thought everyone knew this? Other than Mr Bakkan, I think there's about three people over there who get paid, and their ad rates are HIGH, fairly close to what the Stranger charges, so someones raking in some dough.
They do have a proofreader now, or someone who acts in that capacity, and they ARE much improved in the typos department; I met the guy who does it at a party and he's very defensive about it...
George Bakan thinks he can pay whatever he wants because he's been heading the paper for 23 years.
The fact is I know he pays his staff under $20 per hour which is poverty line for living on the hill.
It looks like one of them got fed up and squealed!
They actually have A&E writers? Who knew? I figured they just published submitted press releases without any sort of editing.
The Best to All for April Fools Day!!!!
Yes SGN has improved its proofing several times over in recent years. Thanks to all staff especially Nick and Rick. Both are paid and full time.
Fact, some A & E writers are paid, several are volunteer.
Cheers, George Bakan
Ick, George Bakan sighting on Slog. I need to wash my hands again.
Anyway, I wonder what joke will be played on the Weekly by the end of the day . . .
"George Bakan cheap or not cheap"
OK, now tell us how much Nick and Rick (sound like the same person to me) earn and we'll see if what they say about you true.
I'm not sure what the message of the April Fool prank is. The note states the truth, which is pretty pathetic that cheap ass George Bakkan can't pay at least a token amount of money to his writers. Then, you might have a gay paper that was readable and not a joke.
And the SGN is chock full of press releases.
That was definitely an inside job. The irrefutable evidence: the writer doesn't seem to know the difference between "it's" and "its".
I'd call the SPD. If it's like any SGN-related letters I've received lately, it's likely coated in liquid meth.
Trevor - if you pay attention to such things, that is a Dan problem ...huh
I'll tell you what's gay news...an enormous penis!!!

Released: Mar 25th, 2008
Running Time: 126 Min.
Director: Jewel De'Nyle
Company: Platinum Jewel Productions
Distribution Companies: Sinsation, Spearmint Rhino Films
DVD Extras: Behind the Scenes, Still Gallery(ies), Trailer(s)
Cast: Carmen (I), Adriana Deville, Kate Frost, Ariana Jollee, Stacey Cash, Lavender Rayne, Mya Luanna, Cassidy (I), Ariel Summers, Heather Pink
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Solo
Those enjoying rough sex (self-inflicted variety) won't want to miss the opener with Adriana Deville slapping her tits, ass and clit while talking nasty.
Busty Heather Pink makes good eye contact as she rubs her clit and sticks four fingers in. She's a squirter, and that finger in her ass doesn't hurt.
Brown-haired Cassidy's a saucy one, fingering her meaty pussy while tantalizing with her eyes. She even appears to squeeze out some "cum."
Also well worth watching is Lavender Rayne, who pleasures herself in the shower, her pendulous breasts beautifully framing the hand that furiously rubs her pierced clit.
Softer strokers include Ariel Summers, Mya Luanna, newcomer Carmen (who looks off-set for direction too often), Stacey Cash and even Kate Frost.
Director Jewel De'Nyle's saved the most famous for last, however: Ariana Jollee, who combines an incredible stream of filthy talk with energetic orgasming in both lower holes.

I was an actor for many years and then directed puppet theatre for children and from that came the necessity to build promotion online. As my brother is a lecturer in communications he urged me to learn how to do it myself. I bought my first computer late in life aged 34 and have never stopped working on something. Usually it was graphics, static web sites, video, flash animation,vector designs, anything which took my fancy. Nowadays it is drupal and command line.
Always thrown myself into the heart of things and from that seem to get better each time at catching on to whatever goals I set myself, usually under pressure.
The flash site I built in 2000 is no longer online because although it contains all my years of work it is not viewable by many mobile users so I took it down in favour of learning drupal. I've never been paid for anything because I do it to help friends or my own creative endeavours. Now I'm creating an interactive site for local community.
Maths is something I've always been terrible at, as well as understanding technical computer components but I surprise myself with what I can achieve and realise I have my own logical ability to work things out which never ceases to amaze me!

Deepwater Horizon's Alarm System Was Broken When the Oil Rig Exploded
"They did not want people woken up at 3 o'clock in the morning due to false alarms."
The alarm in the Deepwater Horizon oil rig had been "inhibited" for nearly a year before the rig's April 20 explosion that killed eleven workers and sent crude oil gushing into the ocean, the rig's chief electronics technician said today. The busted alarm still alerted the platform's computer system when it sensed toxic gases or fires, but didn't alert anybody in any audible or visual way. The technician explained: "When I discovered about a year ago it was inhibited, I inquired as to why it was inhibited, and the explanation I got is that ... they did not want people woken up at 3 o'clock in the morning due to false alarms."

The NFL players have spoken, casting their votes for the top 100 players in the NFL game today.
ManningYou can view their list on NFL.com. Before you go there, want to venture a guess on which conference had the most players?
It wasn't the SEC, nor was it the Big Ten.
It was the Big East with 16.
Now, there's a bit of a catch. We counted those Miami players who played for the Hurricanes when they were competing in the Big East as representing the Big East ... and not the ACC. The same goes for Michael Vick at Virginia Tech.
We also counted those Nebraska and Colorado players making the list as being from the Big 12, even though the Huskers are moving to the Big Ten and the Buffs to the Pac-12 this coming season.
The SEC and Big Ten tied for second behind the Big East, each with 13 players making the top 100. The ACC had 12, and the Pac-12 had 11. The Big 12 had just seven. Notre Dame had one, and the remaining 27 players were from non-BCS schools and/or smaller schools.
Miami led all teams nationally with 10 players. Tennessee was second on the list with six.
There are two ways to look at it from the Vols' perspective. One, they've done a good job of producing premium NFL talent. And two, they haven't done a whole lot with that talent, as it's been 13 years since they last won an SEC championship.
Would you believe that Alabama and Florida didn't have a single player on the list and that LSU has just one? Those three teams have combined for five of the past eight BCS national championships.
Here's a rundown of the SEC players:
No. 2 - QB Peyton Manning (1994-97)
No. 25 - RB Arian Foster (2005-08)
No. 36 - TE Jason Witten (2000-02)
No. 62 - LB Jerod Mayo (2005-07)
No. 93 - S Eric Berry (2007-09)
No. 99 - OT Chad Clifton (1996-99)
No. 48 - CB Champ Bailey (1996-98)
No. 66 - DE Richard Seymour (1997-2000)
No. 98 - RB Darren McFadden (2005-07)
No. 75 - DE Jay Ratliff (2001-04)
No. 45 - WR Dwayne Bowe (2003-06)
No. 23 - LB Patrick Willis (2003-06)
No. 69 - DE John Abraham (1996-99)
