Don't be evil. That's Google's official motto. But what's really going on behind that simple little search box? Wired's Steven Levy guides us through a history of the rise of the internet, the development of complicated search algorithms, and, in many ways, a who's who of Silicon Valley all beautifully narrated by L.J. Ganser.
What started as two geeks obsessed with improving internet search engines rapidly ballooned into a company eager to gobble up other useful startups (Keyhole Inc., YouTube, Picassa) as well as larger, more obviously valuable companies (most notably the marketing goliath, DoubleClick). Google's strategy has also been a game-changer in regards to the way we use data and cloud computing. Thanks to its highly lucrative AdWords and AdSense programs, the company exploded the way people think about the internet and the way people think about making money on the internet.
In the Plex gives listeners a real idea of what it's like to exist within the company's quirky culture. And Ganser knows when to keep it serious, but that doesn't stop him from adding just the right amount of snark to the "like" and "um"-ridden quotations from various engineer types. This edition also includes a fascinating interview between the author and early hire Marissa Mayer, the youngest woman to ever make Fortune's "50 Most Powerful Women in Business" list.
Levy dedicates a large section of the book to Google's controversial actions in China, the ultimate test of the company's "don't be evil" philosophy. Here, In the Plex takes an unexpected turn from company profile to a technology coming-of-age story for notorious "founder kids" Larry Page and Sergey Brin. How does "don't be evil" play out in a real world that is sometimes, well, evil? Results are mixed.
In addition to China, Levy touches on some of Google's failures, flubs, and flops, like the company's book scanning project and its development of Google Wave and Google Buzz. However, he seems to miss the point when he makes excuses for their inability to compete in the social space. It seems particularly obvious why a corporation completely run by data-obsessed engineers would have trouble making inroads in the world of social media, which is by nature more organic and subtle.
From the early days as a gonzo-style startup to the massive corporate giant that has quickly integrated itself into almost everything we do, this is an essential history of Google. Gina Pensiero
Few companies in history have ever been as successful and as admired as Google, the company that has transformed the Internet and become an indispensable part of our lives. How has Google done it? Veteran technology reporter Steven Levy was granted unprecedented access to the company, and in this revelatory book he takes listeners inside Google headquarters - the Googleplex - to explain how Google works.
While they were still students at Stanford, Google co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin revolutionized Internet search. They followed this brilliant innovation with another, as two of Google's earliest employees found a way to do what no one else had: make billions of dollars from Internet advertising. With this cash cow (until Google's IPO, nobody other than Google management had any idea how lucrative the company's ad business was), Google was able to expand dramatically and take on other transformative projects: more efficient data centers, open-source cell phones, free Internet video (YouTube), cloud computing, digitizing books, and much more.
The key to Google's success in all these businesses, Levy reveals, is its engineering mind-set and adoption of such Internet values as speed, openness, experimentation, and risk taking. After it's unapologetically elitist approach to hiring, Google pampers its engineers with free food and dry cleaning, on-site doctors and masseuses, and gives them all the resources they need to succeed. Even today, with a workforce of more than 23,000, Larry Page signs off on every hire.
But has Google lost its innovative edge? It stumbled badly in China. And now, with its newest initiative, social networking, Google is chasing a successful competitor for the first time. Some employees are leaving the company for smaller, nimbler start-ups. Can the company that famously decided not to be "evil" still compete?
No other book has turned Google inside out as Levy does with In the Plex.
This edition of In the Plex includes an exclusive interview with Google's Marissa Mayer, one of the company's earliest hires and most visible executives, as well as the youngest woman to ever make Fortune's "50 Most Powerful Women in Business" list. She provides a high-level insider's perspective on the company's life story, its unique hiring practices, its new social networking initiative, and more.

"Thoroughly versed in technology reporting, Wired senior writer Levy deliberates at great length about online behemoth Google and creatively documents the company's genesis from a 'feisty start-up to a market-dominating giant'.... Though the author offers plenty of well-known information, it's his catbird-seat vantage point that really gets to the good stuff. Outstanding reportage delivered in the upbeat, informative fashion for which Levy is well known." (Kirkus Reviews)
"The book, a wide-ranging history of the company from start-up to behemoth, sheds light on the biggest threats Google faces today, from the Chinese government to Facebook and privacy critics." (The New York Times)
"With a commanding voice, L.J. Ganser narrates this history and exploration of Google….Ganser's stern voice is clear and moves through the text with determination." (AudioFile)
"Clever, honest, and even inspiring"
If you use Gmail, Google Search, Google Analytics, hell, any Google product at all, or you've ever been frustrated by the bureaucratic process, you owe it to yourself to check out this book.
"Just ok for me"
The book was very well narrated and written. It was just a bit boring.
For the person not up on tech, the content may be more revelatory but for a blog follower on all things tech it was a bit underwhelming.
I also think the author was too close to google to give an objective report. More a collation of news that we, for the most part, know.
Alas, it passed the time during a few commutes. 2.5 stars - bland.
"Great for the stories."
More of a "20/20" investigation of Google than anything else. Does assume you have the name familiarity that he does which can get difficult to follow at times.
20 hours is a long time to explain only a decade, and there is some redundancy.
The stories, are excellent. Steven obviously had an "all access" path in Google. If you have any questions about this company, or consider them on any level, there is information in this you'll be excited to hear.
"Finally, I get Google"
This is a must read for anyone who wants to truly understand Google. Their struggle and why they do what they do is so interesting. There's a lot of high level knowledge in this book that I've adopted into my work ethic. Now all I need is a copy of their OKR and apply it to everything!
"A Rip Snorting Story"
Steven Levy has successfully gathered all the details necessary to tell the story of Google - to the present in early 2011. The most interesting sections deal with Google's experience in China, insights into the Google culture in the US and abroad, and how particular decisions were made from the beginning. The growth of Google is here, conflict along the way is presented, and the ethical and technological challenges covered. The only downside of the book - it is too early to know how Google will adjust to being a a "big company." A benefit of the Audible version is the "extra" interview section at the end. The reading of L. J. Ganser is excellent, the writing is engaging, and the book informative.
Say something about yourself!
"Excellent Current Story"
If you have listened to the earlier books "Search" and "Google", then you have not heard what this book has to say. It is excellent and covers many more products than just search. It is also extremely current.
"What would we do without Google?"
This is great read on the history of Google, it's founders (Larry Page and Sergey Brin), and search technology. In the early days of the internet if you had typed in "newspaper," you would not have gotten "New York Times" or "LA Times" because they didn't have "newspaper" in its title. You had to know exactly what key words would generate the results you wanted. It's amazing to think how far search engines have come -- as you type, they predict what you want and populate key words for you. It is due to Google's extreme focus on technology and goals (speed, measurement, refinement, and openness). And there are many more amazing Google technologies that work seamlessly into our lives, which I have forgotten about -- Google Earth, Google Maps, Google Translate....
There is a lot of reference to "Googley" people and culture and the company's motto of "don't be evil." I think some readers will find it as a bias towards Google. I think it simply describes a workforce obsessively dedicated to doing what they love. For example, many might argue that Google's entry into China was a major stumble and the book doesn't place much accountability on the executives of Google. I think it was daring that Google did that. Selling technology in China is a high-risk proposition. Corruption and copyright infringements turn many companies away from China. Google had to know failure was very likely. Google took a chance to do something for the people of China. Although they censored results as required by the Chinese government, the users were informed on the page whenever results were censored. It was a small step... but an important step to reflect the value of openness -- the Chinese people were told when they weren't getting everything they wanted to see because the government was censoring it.
"Google is Everywhere!"
A fascinating and sometimes scary look into the power and depth of whatever Google is really trying to be. The concept of "cloud computing" where files on our personal computers/phones/whatever …no longer exist…." asks us to place all of our trust in a company that appears to mean well ………. that appears to have our best interests at heart – but when and where have we heard all of that before and what were the outcomes?
A great – "should/must read" for all of us who use many of Google's services on a daily basis.
"Levy hit another home run"
An excellent treatment of the ups and downs for Google. Very interesting information about one of the most secretive companies in the world!
"A high-quality book, but boring"
First, a disclaimer. I simply could not get past chapter 8 although I really wanted to. This book was clearly well researched, written, and read. But unlike Walter Isaacson's "Steve Jobs", which I found fascinating and thoroughly entertaining, there was nothing in this book of human interest to make the story come alive. Certainly it's a must read for industry enthusiasts, or any entrepreneurial type for that matter. As I am neither of those, however, it fell flat for me and I am giving up.

Cosmetic dentistry is not a replacement for visits to your regular dentist, but it can help fix aesthetic problems that have come up as a result of much-needed dental work. While most patients will visit their dentist for a simple teeth cleaning to prevent disease and cavities, many dentist can clean the teeth for cosmetic reasons. Procedures can be perform by a cosmetic dentist to eliminate stains on the teeth caused by smoking or drinking dark colored liquids. Although there are over-the-counter teeth whitening kits available for in-home use, the dentist has access to more advanced teeth whitening techniques that can produce quicker, more permanent results.
With all of the advances in cosmetic dentistry over the past couple of decades, it's easy for people to get the smile they've always dreamed of today. Nowadays, people can improve the look of their teeth in ways that would have been near impossible just twenty years ago. While dentists in the past focused mainly on dental problems like cavities, modern dental advancements offer people several ways to completely change and beautify their natural smile. A person's smile is one of the first things noticed when meeting someone for the first time.
While an emergency dentist is one who can accommodate your need for dental care right away. Some have later hours, weekends and offer immediate appointments to get patients in when they are in significant pain or experiencing a big crisis. The key is to know when to visit these providers and when to hold off for a regular appointment. In some cases, you may even need to visit the emergency room if you cannot get your dental care provider to make room in the schedule for your care. However, most dentists do not charge extra for these last minute appointments.
Everyone can tolerate pain at different levels. If your pain reaches an eight or higher on a scale of 1 to 10 it may be time you find an emergency dentist. Pain often stems from cavities or bacterial infections. In both cases, the nerve root of the tooth is exposed. Hot and cold, sugary substances and just touching it can send a shooting pain through the jaw. In other cases, it may just ache. If brushing and using topical pain medications does not help for the time being, seek out dental care from a professional. An emergency dentist will conduct an examination of the teeth and perform x-rays to determine what is wrong. Then, a deep cleaning is often necessary to remove bacterial buildup causing the infection. In other cases, the dentist will need to treat the cavity properly. Pain does not have to be a factor you have to live with long-term. You do not need to suffer from pain and discomfort if there is a dental care provider available who will work with you to get your oral health back in line.

I'm hoping to use a custom richfaces skin to handle the bulk of my presentation work. Unfortunately richfaces renders borders around every cell in a calendar component and around each panel. I would like to turn them off so that day numbers site in an open grid with no borders. There is no obvious way to do that using skins or attributes of the calendar control.
I could use custom CSS but I'd prefer to work with the framework to completely remove the border related properties from the stylesheets created by richfaces rather than work against the framework and override everything using ugly CSS.
So how do I stop richfaces adding borders to panels and calendars?
This guy has a similar problem

Cinebench R11.5 64-bit / 3DMark 11
Cinebench has been a personal favourite test of ours for a long time now; it uses methodology comparable to a standard rendering task. It is a great indication of performance a designer can expect when using Cinema4d as the rendering engine is the same. The 64-bit build of the application was used for this test.
Before we move on to real world CPU and GPU performance a couple of quick tests here show us an interesting CPU result. Our comparison system actually has a CPU which is, on paper, 100MHz faster however the Schenker system is able to draw a little extra performance under heavy load than its smaller form factor competition. Then as we move on to 3DMark 11 the P722 achieves performance similar to a desktop system running an i7-3960X and GTX 680 4GB OC which would normally achieve X3700.

There is no explicit bcc (blind copy) argument from quick look at source it does seems to be processed if passed in headers.

We stayed for 6 nights at The Hotel Boheme and thought it was fantastic. As we had done our homework and read other reviews we understood that this was a small boutique hotel with no lift and were expecting the rooms to be small maybe noisy if we were on the front.
However, I am not sure if staying in room 208 has a distinct advantage over the rooms but it was perfect. We didn't think the room was too small at all, especially compared to hotels in the Centre of London. We had plenty of natural light on the back and it was quiet. It didn't bother us in the slightest that we had to carry our bags up some stairs.
The staff were extremely polite and helpful and couldn't do enough for us. The location is absolutely a plus point, it is safe with plently of restaurants and bars. Washington Square is round the corner, the Beat history on your doorstep and a 20 minute stroll takes you right down to fisherman's wharf and the piers.
The only thing that slightly frustrated us was the noise of the showers when guests woke up early, they were very loud in our room but we used our ear plugs we had bought just in case and we were able to sleep really well.
I would definitely recommend this hotel to friends and stay there again without hesitation.

Posted by Mikyla
Doug Weathers was introduced to me at one of the most stressful times in my life, a time when I wasn't so sure how my life from there on out was going to go. With confidence, knowledge and the upmost respect for me and my case he steered me in a direction that was best suited for me in particular. He was on top of it, prompt, and never once did I feel ignored nor was there a question that was ever left unanswered-and there were many. Mr. Weathers will always be my first recommendation and first go to as a lawyer. No questions asked.
Posted by a Criminal Defense client
Doug was great at handling my case. He listened carefully to fully understand my situation. He was very knowledgeable of several courses of action and gave me his professional opinion of the consequences of each and which course to take. I would highly recommend Doug to anyone needing legal counsel.

NEW YORK A computer systems administrator was sentenced to 30 months in prison on Tuesday for trying to sabotage his company's servers out of fear he was about to lose his job, prosecutors said.
The U.S. Attorney's Office in Newark, New Jersey, said Yung-Hsun Lin received the longest ever federal prison term for a criminal attempt to damage a computer system.
He was also ordered to pay $81,200 in restitution to his former employer, pharmacy benefit manager Medco Health Solutions Inc.
Lin, 51, admitted he modified computer codes and added code to create a "logic bomb" designed to wipe out servers on Medco's network in October 2003, around the time Medco was being spun off by Merck & Co, authorities said.
Lin feared he might be affected by resulting layoffs. Part of the code included script to launch the attack on his birthday, but it failed, they said.
Medco servers contained software applications relating to clients' clinical analyses, rebates, billing and managed care processing. The unauthorized coding was found by another computer administrator in January 2005, authorities said.

Phillips was recalled for the friendlies against the United States on Friday and Norway four days later despite missing out on recent squads following a broken arm.
It is a sign of how much Gordon Strachan wants to integrate him into his squad that Phillips got in ahead of the likes of Ross McCormack, who has scored eight goals in six games for Leeds.
Harry Redknapp also took a gamble on Phillips by buying the 22-year-old from Blackpool despite him being sidelined with the arm injury.
And Jordan, Redknapp's assistant, has not been disappointed with the form the winger has shown following his comeback.
English-born Phillips has only won two caps for Scotland. He made his only start in the 5-1 friendly defeat by the USA in June 2012 before coming off the bench for 10 minutes of Scotland's 2-0 loss to Belgium later that year.
And Jordan believes his fellow Scots will be impressed when they see more of him.
He told Press Association Sport: "He's a player that can be a match-winner and I think he is showing that now. He is getting a regular game with us now and the more games he gets, the better he will be.
"He has played well in the last few games. We knew when we bought him that he had this problem. It was a nasty one but we took him on board knowing he would be unavailable for a number of weeks.
"So it's been a stop-start first quarter of the season for him but he is out the blocks now.
"He is getting games and he is playing well.
"He's a good player. He's a big powerful lad, great touch, can get a goal and make a goal. He just needs football, minutes on the pitch."

Fat emulsions have been investigated extensively in an effort to find a safe source of calories for malnourished patients being maintained on parenteral feeding for prolonged periods. However, little attention has been paid to the effect of these emulsions on liver function. In view of the major role of the liver in intermediary fat metabolism and the frequent occurrence of accumulation of fat within the hepatic parenchyma, it seemed of interest to investigate the effects of repeated infusions of fat on the functions and structure of the liver.
Daily infusions of 600 ml. of a fat emulsion were given to 20 hospitalized male patients. Ten patients had normal and 10 had abnormal liver function prior to the infusions, as judged by sulfobromophthalein U. S. P. (Bromsulphalein) retention. The patients were selected on the basis of their cooperativeness and their availability for biopsies and follow-up studies.The fat emulsion (Lipomul-I.

Disgraceful behavior cannot go unpunished
Talk about horrors. I was horrified to read the article on the plight of the Binder family. The young men and women who attended the party came from some of the most elite schools in Western New York, yet their behavior was the equivalent of animals. What have these children been taught?
I don't blame the schools, because my children attended private school and I know teachers at these schools. They teach respect and are not afraid to take a stance on what is morally right and wrong. I do blame the parents. Now children at that age have a mind of their own, as all of us who have been there know, but when that behavior crosses the line, as parents it is never our job to say, "kids will be kids." It is our job to act accountable and to hold our children accountable.
As far as the Binders, they are far more forgiving than I would be. If the parents of the teen responsible for cat sitting are not holding her accountable and making restitution, I would press whatever charges I could. But what a sad day and age it is that it would have to come to that. What happened to accountability? It is truly a sad society we live in, and my heart goes out to the Binders not only for the damage, but for the sense of betrayal they and their daughter must feel. Shame on those who did this and shame even more on their parents for not making it right!

She interprets the natural world from different perspectives; as observed specimen, as aesthetic concept, as metaphor and as a subject that represents an ephemeral experience. Flowers rise and fall on the picture plane, creating visual spatial activity while offering a rosy view of the world, a denial of unpleasant things, and a prolonged sense of the pleasures of the natural world.

I have set up wordpress multisite at mmo-game.eu (don't laugh, it is work in progress), the idea is to have sub blogs for each game. The main page is going to show exceprts of the subdomains, this is all working fine. Thanks for the help I have gotten so far.
My old domain is http://www.myrddin.de and I would like to keep that domain, but show its excerpts at http://www.mmo-game.eu. I have exported the doamin and imported it under myrddin.mmo-game.eu. But since myrddin.de exists for so long (created the site 1996) I would like to keep it.
Basically like this:
Does this run under domain mapping aswell? Or can I just create the http://www.myrddin.de blog under mmo-game.eu's network admin?
Thanks for reading,

Just made this tonight after seeing in the top ten list, and WOW! This is so good! I made it exactly as written except for subbing dried basil. I'll be making this one a lot and for everyone I know!
Updated on December 4, 2012
I know that I'm always talking about the weather, but when it comes to food, it dictates so much! A warm breeze with light humidity may call for a plate of tacos, cold and rainy days may make you reach for a comforting pot pie, and a hot, thunderstorm coming your way will have you leaving all appliances off. Well, yesterday there was a freak day in which the weather decide to stay under 80ºF and remain cloudy for most of the day -chilly I know ;)- so I wanted to take full advantage of the break in intense heat and humidity. It was time for soup!
Of course, it still is summer so I couldn't forget to use some ingredients that depicted a bit of the season. In this case, I chose corn; as a starchy, slightly sweet vegetable it is pretty versatile. One dish that I love, that I very rarely eat- oddly enough- that utilizes the golden kernels well is corn chowder. A creamy, usually insanely delicious, soup that isn't all that healthy most of the time. Well, with my recipe, I've added a good amount of other veggies, used far less creamer/milk, and added a smoky flair to it. Once the soup was simmering on my stove, near completion, my kitchen filled with amazing aromas. For a moment I stepped outside to check up on the dogs, but when I came back in, the scents enveloped me and hugged my nostrils gently. Yes, it smells that good.
Not only does my version of corn chowder taste great, it is really easy to make and doesn't take long at all! Soup recipes- to me at least- can sometimes be intimidating because of the length of time they take to prepare, not so with this one. I think I'll be making this soup again once the weather truly cools down, and who knows, maybe I'll even share it. 😀
One Year Ago: Half & Half Veggie Seitan Sausage Pizza
Serve this soup with a hearty toast, a large salad, or both! Just to keep things balanced of course. What's your favorite recipe that uses corn?
Just made this tonight after seeing in the top ten list, and WOW! This is so good! I made it exactly as written except for subbing dried basil. I'll be making this one a lot and for everyone I know!
Hello! I found this recipe a few months ago and it has become one of my go-to meals! I seriously love it. Its perfect when feeding skeptic omnivores, I always seem to have most of the ingredients already in my fridge, and the ingredients I dont have are super affordable. Thank you so much for sharing!
I've just made this for the first time and it is amazing! I added some diced potatoes and had it as a main course soup. You're right about the smell.walking into my kitchen whilst it was cooking was like being given a big hug! Substantial enough not to need bread but since I'd just made some soda bread I had some anyway!! Brilliant recipe.

I recommend giving each of these windows a different 'cls' config option and write css rules based on the assigned class to change the used colors and background-images.
Another option would be using 'baseCls' instead of 'cls', but in that case the css rules need to style everything for the window, because there would be no default.
7 Jan 2011 1:30 AM #3
i tought there were be a solution like the style tag
PHP Code:
new Ext.Window({
title: windowtitle,
layout: 'fit',
width: width,
height: height,
closeAction: 'destroy',
plain: true,
modal: true,
border: false,
items: objs,
resizable: false,
shim: false,
animCollapse: false,
constrainHeader: true,
closable: false,
style: {
background: (obj==bannerform?'#3D5266':'#99CCFF')

No, a window is made up of several elements. Specifying a 'style' will only affect the outer most element, but you also need to change the header and the frame (and possibly the toolbars).
7 Jan 2011 1:39 AM #5
so i have to use the 'cls' tag
ok thank you very much i will search for it
7 Jan 2011 3:35 AM #6
ok i tried soe stuff but nothing goes like i would
heres my extjs code
PHP Code:
openedforms[opened] = new Ext.Window({
title: windowtitle,
layout: 'fit',
width: width,
height: height,
closeAction: 'hide',
plain: true,
border: false,
items: obj,
shim: false,
minWidth: minWidth,
minHeight: minHeight,
animCollapse: true,
constrainHeader: true,
collapsible: true,
maximizable: true,
opened: opened,
iconCls: opened + 'window',
PHP Code:
.win_campaigns {
background-color: #3D5266;
the window is opened but the color isnt change. what do i wrong ?
editpost: i saw that maybe the class path is not seen how do i configure it the path is

1. Ext.Window doesn't have an 'addClass' method. However, the element returned by win.getEl() does.
2. A window consists of a lot more elements. You need a several css rules (one for each element) to modify backgrounds and borders.
7 Jan 2011 4:04 AM #8
thnx Condor but i really dont understand how i do it, i just want to change the color of the panel. every other settings from the gray theme should be keep like its originally setting. only the background color have to be changed

Verified Buyer Reviewed by Raleigh Gardener from North Carolina on Friday, July 29, 2016In this summer's heat I need clothes cooler than cotton - and these Terramer Helix T-shirts are just the trick.
They feel better than cotton - and look better than cotton.
Wish I'd had them years ago.
Reviewed by Hondo from Northern Virginia on Friday, July 8, 2016I will disagree with one other reviewer's disagreement. These shirts DO run about one size too small, so order up. According to the tag, they have "EC2 Quik-Dri technology", which supposedly gives the shirt the ability to lift moisture molecules away from the skin, breaking them down for rapid evaporation - apparently a patented process that is permanently embedded in the fabric, and which does not wash or wear out of the fabric. I was a little concerned that the shirts would not be stretchy, but they do have a nice bit of stretch so they move with your body.
As for EC2, on an initial trial run walking the dog in very hot and humid conditions, the shirt does feel drier when sweating. It will be interesting to see how effective it is in heavy sweating conditions, but I would assume it will perform better than CoolMax or other fabrics. I will need more time to verify this. These shirts are very light in weight and would be popular with Appalachian Trail through-hikers or other distance backpackers looking to keep their weight down. As for me, this shirt will serve me well for hiking, backpacking, yard work and other functions. And they do have Anti Microbial to keep odors down, unlike a Reebok shirt I own which seems to hold on to odors.
All in all, a nice shirt for the money. The somewhat open weave and light weight may make them more prone to "picking", but most of my other performance shirts are at risk of this as well. I would recommend this shirt it to friends.
Verified Buyer Reviewed by Frank the Butcher from Illinois on Thursday, July 7, 2016Why go to a department store or large sporting goods store and spend $20+ on a similar shirt?
Verified Buyer Reviewed by Tyler from Texas on Tuesday, July 5, 2016Lightweight, breathes exceptionally well, and fits as it should. This makes a great workout shirt - no need to spend more than 10 bucks for that.
Verified Buyer Reviewed by Rob the Old from Incline Village NV on Wednesday, June 29, 2016Another reviewer rated this "runs large" and "order size smaller". Not so, causing me to return my order and reorder next size up. Great price and thanks for the second order discounted shipping fee. This shirt is top-of-the-line as your gym and running shirts at a fantastic price.
Question "A current color sample looks deep purple but the shirt I received is bright blue (which I see now is the label on the purple swatch)."
Answer Very true. I was in the same boat and I took two things into consideration. First, I didn't mind if the shirt was a bright blue (really a dark bright blue, if that makes sense), so I thought I would gamble and see if it really was purple, like in the picture. It isn't. Secondly, these shirts are an absolute steal at this price for a moisture wicking shirt, so it wasn't that big of a deal to me. I didn't get a purple shirt like the picture, but I got a nice blue shirt like advertised.
Answer What's your question?
Answer Always read description carefully especially on closeout items! perhaps the company didn't have correct color swatch to display, but I do like the performance of these shirts.
Answer Sorry, I have purchased neither color. That said, what I have purchased made by this brand has been first class. My favorites are the Dri-Release shirts;
very comfortable.
Answer i'm not sure what the question is...
Answer A long sleeve that I bought looked like a cool almost pink color, but when I got it, it was an orange tee. That specific color I did buy and on my monitor it did look purple but like you said the color description was blue.
Answer I see no question mark, so this sounds more like a statement. I cannot answer a statement.
Answer We apologize for any confusion. Please contact customer service via 24/7 online chat, by email: firstname.lastname@example.com or by phone: 1-800-713-4534.
Question "I'm colorblind. I have one of these shirts in "Cypress" which I haven't seen for quite some time. However, the "brick" offering appears to me to be the same color, but I have always associated brick with red. So...is it red or green? Thanks!"
Answer Hi...I don't remember doing a review on these, but I can tell you that the Brick is definitely not green. It is a red-like color with rust shade (a bit like a muted orange/red). Good luck!
Answer Just checked out the color samples of this fantastic t-shirt. Cypress is typically light blue (not listed in samples).
Brick appears to be a dark orange/pale red. By the way, nice choice of T-shirt. I bought several of these, my husband loves them.
Hope this helps.
Answer Brick is an orange/red color.
Answer Well, I got one in steel blue and its a little lighter than the color on the website. But for your case, I'd say the brick does look like a dark orange-red. But if it looks like the cypress to you, then get the brick! I'm not sure if this is helpful for what you're asking, but I hope so!
Answer In taking a look at the colors, it appears to me that the color brick looks more like a copper color or more dark orange. So neither red or green. The lava color looks brighter orange than the bright orange color, and the bright orange color looks red. So it would appear that the people at Terramar could be color blind too. I hope this helps.
Answer There is no "Cypress" color option for this tee. If you mean "Citrus," I find it to be an unappetizing shade of green. I greatly would prefer "Olive." On the other hand, "Brick" is a darker shade of "Orange"--an entirely different color than "Citrus." I do things the easy way, wearing "Black" only. Do not know if this piece of information is of any use to you, but the easiest way by far to remember the colors of the spectrum is to memorize the name of Mr. Roy G. Biv--red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet. All shades of color derive from these "majors." White is the absence of color. Black is, well, I forgot that part of my junior-high-school chemistry class....
Answer Hello,
I am not aware that there is a "cypress" color for this shirt. There is a "citrus" which is a sort of lime green, however, I am not seeing "cypress as a color option.
Answer the brick color on the website looks a little Red/Orange, but I would imagine to usually mean red. It may look more red than the web photo, but I would guess cypress to be green. Hope this helps
Answer The Brick is an ORANGE/RED color, it is a deep reddish/orange hue. Hope this helps. My husband LOVES this shirt, it s light weight, and really does whisk the perspiration away. He wore it in the Caribbean on a hike to the top of one of the Mayan Ruins, a strenuous hike.
Question "Are the colors 'lava (07)' and 'bright orange (15)' correctly displayed in this listing? Seems to me 'lava' should be darker and redder than 'bright orange,' but on this page 'bright orange' isn't bright at all. It's more of a tomato red, whereas the picture for 'lava' looks like what I would describe as bright orange."
Answer Chest size for a size large is 42" and length is 29". For the size XL the chest is 46" and the length is also 29".
Answer I would recommend contacting a few screen printing companies and seeing if they can work with 100% micropolyester. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

The Perceptual Structure of Emptiness
Gert van Tonder, Associate Professor,Laboratory of Visual Psychology, Faculty of Architecture and Design, Kyoto Institute of Technology
The dry rock garden at Ryoanji Temple in Kyoto, Japan, attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors each year, who marvel at the harmoniously balanced visual composition of the garden. Does scientific understanding of human visual perception give us any clues into the visual appeal of this minimalist garden? In this talk, I will show how abstract shape processing in the brain finds an equal in the abstracted order hidden in the empty spaces of the garden. Rather than proving whether or not the garden is "beautiful", the insight opens a new avenue for articulating the structural qualities of the garden design in such a way that we can connect visual appeal, brain mechanisms and perceptual experience to what otherwise seems to be no more than an empty expanse of raked gravel.

I have some allocatable arrays which I need to share between some subroutines. I usually would just pass them as arguments or maybe write everything in a Module, but I'm afraid this isn't possible in my situation.
I only write some own subroutines and use subroutines provided and described by an FEM-Solver. So i cannot alter the arguments of this subroutines or wrap them in a Module.
As far as i know it also isn't possible to Build common blocks with array of unknown size at compile time.
Is there something else to pass my arrays?
At the moment my program environment looks like this:
I have a subroutine, provided by the FEM-program, which is called after each increment, this calls several of my subroutines where I compute some values for each node or for a subset of those.
To display these values in the post-Simulation, i have to pass them to another subroutine. This subroutine is called by the FEM-solver for each node at the end of the increment. So shifting my code to this Subroutine would produce a lot of overhead.
My idea is to compute the values once, store the Values in an array and pass this array to the second subroutine where they will be written to the database of the computation.
Some Pseudo-code:
Assumed from program behaviour:
Program FEM-solver
call ENDINC(ar1,ar2)
do NodeID=1,Sum_Of_Nodes
do valueID=1,Sum_Of_User_Computed_Values !(defined in preprocessing)
call nodeval(NodeID,valueID,Value,ar3,...,arN)
end do
end do
end program FEM-solver
Written and working:
Subroutine ENDINC(ar1,ar2)
*Computation of some node values*
*Calling of own Subroutines, which compute more values*
*Writing an array with results values for some/each node(s)*
nodersltArr(NodeID,rslt)=*some Value*
end Subroutine ENDINC
Needed, writng the computed Values to the Node solution database:
Subroutine nodeval(NodeID,valueID,Value,ar3,...,arN)
*called for each NodeID and valueID*
end subroutine nodeval

Meta Structures
April 11th – May 2nd
"Meta Structures" – A two man exhibit from artists Max Kauffman and Brian Robertson uses the term as a way to define works loosely based in reality, but taking on a sense of "extra/other" reality. Both artists employ elements of abstraction and use personal experience with emotion to describe their work; Max stating a sense of balance found in his personal life informing his recent work and Brian mentioning a "mood de jour" guiding his hand when constructing compositions. Together the works address objects or architecture of an unknown origin and with an unknown purpose, brought to life for the viewer to attempt to assign the final verdict of classification.
Brian Robertson Artwork
From Max Kauffman
My recent work has been delving into architecture – how house vs home affects us; how comfort, inherent from inanimate objects/places we inhabit, shapes us. How energy transfers in the cycle that is life, there's always been a balance between hard realized things and unconscious flow/movement. I've often danced around that line, but been very aware of it, tweaking different balances of it but aiming for control in the moment…focusing on details instead of the big picture.
In proper meta fashion, the title of this show Meta Structures applies on several levels. I've recently found more balance in my personal life, and feel I've been able to convey that better in the work – instead of striving, I let it guide me; instead of specific goals, I let the tide draw me to where it may.
There is a new clarity in the act of painting. The unconscious side of painting has taken on great appeal lately, where I go deeper into the intuitive places that drew me to this kind of work to begin with. I hesitate to say abstraction because there are still clear symbols/patterns/shapes that emerge – but its a return to an older language I've steadily moved beyond in the last 5 years.
The symbols take on new meaning when building up structures, adorning their walls, or finding their way further into the nooks and crannies of familiar figures. Returning to balance, it is achieved in a fresh way – comprised of older language and ideas, but with new approaches weaving in and out of a nebulous field of memory. Some things break down as others crystalize into more complex structures.
Our own memory changes/disintegrates/builds up over time, and so the more recent work becomes intertwined with the two sides it represents – the meta structures of our own minds seem closer than they've ever been.
About Max Kauffman
United States – b. 1981
I grew up in South Bend, Indiana. Born in Chicago, I returned there often for skateboarding in my teens and concerts after that. In Indiana, a giant portion of my early life was outdoors – wandering swamps, flipping over logs, exploring the (to me) forest primeval in my backyard. This duality shaped me and the work I do. Needing something larger after high school, I attended ASU for ceramics and anthropology. The latter has been one of my largest influences to date. I've been fortunate enough to show my work across the US for the past seven years. I've also shown bits of things in Italy, Israel, and Canada (first out of the country solo there last year). Featured in Juxtapoz, Lost at E Minor, Beautiful Decay, and Wallfarmers. I've been lucky enough to work with people like Mountain Dew, Nike, and Arbor on projects, and have written for Hi Fructose on and off since 2008.

"The Butterfly Trail in Hartwald" Rhön Off The Beaten Path Tip by Weissdorn
Rhön Off The Beaten Path: 4 reviews and 8 photos
From the around 170 different kinds of butterflies that can found in Bavaria, about two thirds of them are in the Rhön. More than 130 different species of butterflies can be found in the Rhön, which makes it unique place in Europe, especially for butterfly enthusaists, or Lepidopterologists.
The Natural Rhön Park authorities and the "Gesellschaft für Schmetterlingsschutz e.V." - National Butterfly Protection Society, founded this trail in the Hartwald - between Oberelsbach and Oberwaldbehrungen - where you can observe around 30 different kinds of butterflies.
The billboards along the way, don't only tell you how to recognize the different kinds, but they also tell why butterflies are important for the ecology system.
The best time to go is on sunny late Spring and Summer days that hardly have any wind. That's when it will be most likely that you will see most of the different kinds of butterflies, either in the late morning or the early afternoon. The months of July and August are best.
The Butterfly Trail is located between the towns of Oberelsbach and Unterelsbach in the Bavarian Rhön Area.

I'm wondering if/how I can realize the following setup. It doesn't seem to fit the standard ssh port forwarding model.
I have a client machine A. I have a server application running on machine A, which listens on port X. However, machine A is behind a common IP-address (shared by many users) so it can't receive incoming connections to port X from the internet. However, I have access to a machine, B, in Amazon EC2 and it would be OK connections would go through that machine. It's not possible to move the application to this machine in EC2.
Hence, what I want, is to have machine B listen on port X and forward all connections/communications to machine A. Machine A has to see it as if clients are connecting to port X in the usual way (it would be acceptable that the source IP appears as machine B).
The solution must work in such a way that machine A is the client that connects to machine B. So in the case of ssh, A would have to be the ssh client and B the ssh server. Again, this is because machine A is behind the common IP, hence all connections have to be outgoing from A.
How can this setup be realized? Preferably using commonly available and free software? Thank you in advance.

Mr. Leeuw served as the Parliamentarian of the Indiana Senate for 10 years. He also served in the Indiana General Assembly from 1978 through 1990 chairing the House Labor Committee from 1984 through 1986 and the Public Policy Committee from 1987 through 1990. He was a member of the Indiana General Corporation Law Study Commission and in 1986 authored the Indiana Business Corporation Act.

On February 9, 2016, a Lake County jury returned a defense verdict in favor of State Farm Fire & Casualty Insurance Company's insured, Embassy Place, LLC, following a two day jury trial in Hammond, Indiana. The trial arose from a March 7, 2013 slip and fall by Plaintiff at her apartment complex, Embassy Place Apartments. The Plaintiff claimed Embassy Place was negligent in failing to properly treat ice and snow covered sidewalks outside of her apartment, causing her to fall and sustain personal injury. She broke her leg as a result of the fall, requiring surgery, follow-up medical treatment and physical therapy. The jury was out for one hour and fifteen minutes before returning a verdict in favor of Embassy Place.

John Mead Speaks on WFYI Radio Program
Jeffrey R. Oberlies to Speak at 2015 Advanced Insurance Fraud Seminarr
Gene Leeuw and John Mead successfully defended an appeal of a $4.6 million judgment in favor of our client.
Jan Campbell won summary judgment for State Farm Fire & Casualty Company in lawsuit wherein Plaintiff sought policy proceeds under a homeowners policy for a fire loss to the home she owned with her husband. The husband, who intentionally set fire to the house immediately prior to committing suicide, had obtained a homeowners policy prior to his death. He did not list his wife as a named insured. Divorce proceedings were pending, and Plaintiff had moved into an apartment. The Court found that Plaintiff was not a named insured on the policy, was not a resident spouse at the time of the fire, and was not otherwise entitled to insurance proceeds on the date of loss. See Adkins v. State Farm Fire & Casualty Co., 2015 WL 329180 (S.D. Ind. 2015).
Leeuw Oberlies & Campbell Attorney Obtains Successful Defense Verdict for Insurer in Jennings County, Indiana
On March 21, 2014, a Jennings County jury returned a defense verdict in favor of Indiana Farm Bureau following a 4 day jury trial in Vernon, Indiana. The trial arose from a December 2008 fire at the Plaintiff's property in North Vernon, Indiana. Jeff Oberlies presented evidence that the insured's house fire was intentionally set by or at the direction of Plaintiff and that Plaintiff made material misrepresentations during the presentation of her insurance claim. The jury determined that the denial of insurance proceeds was appropriate. The diligence and professionalism of Indiana Farm Bureau representatives with regard to their handling of the insured's claim was instrumental in this defense verdict.

How can I use this page as the front page and not have it affect the rest of my WP theme?
I did try renaming it to index.php and dropping it into the theme folder. While that worked, subsequent pages used index.php until I resorted to using posts under a different category to bypass index.php - not the best way.

I am ashamed to buy a dog
This is a discussion thread · 4 replies
Anonymous:So here's my situation.... I have a dog but I want also another one... there are two ways... to adopt again or to buy... the problem is that I want, I really want and dream about a SHEPHERD. A beautiful German Shepherd. The dog I have now is a Shepherd mix but I want a purebred one... and I feel so ashamed for this wish because there are so many abandoned dogs that need a home... they don't have a loving family... and I want to buy a pet for MONEY. My conscience is consuming me alive... I'm so sorry for the dogs that don't have an owner but my dream doesn't let me go. Did you have pangs of conscience when you were buying your purebred dog? Am I just an indecisive fool? Please advise what should I do...
I cannot tell you what to do, but I'll tell you this: you cannot help or adopt ALL the dogs that need a loving home. Besides, many pure bred dogs are mistreated too, unfortunately, so as long as the dogs are happy in your family, I'm sure you're doing everything right.
By going this route, you are avoiding the breeder situation, and rescuing a dog that could very-well end up in a shelter.
www.petfinder.com or Google "German Shepherd Rescue (your state)" to see if there are any available purebred shepherds in your area. I know where I'm from the pounds and shelters are FULL of them. Just fostered a purebred shepherd, 8 months old, not too long ago, and when walking through the pound helping a friend find her lost dog, there were about ten GSD's there about to be euthanized due to lack of space.

Well before signs of dementia trigger a diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease, a person's cholesterol levels may be a bellwether of amyloid plaque buildup in the brain, a new study finds. Long considered a reliable predictor of heart attacks and strokes, worrisome cholesterol levels may now raise concerns about dementia risk as well, prompting more aggressive use of drugs, including statins, which alter cholesterol levels.
Elderly people who have both mild cognitive impairment and a history of serious concussion showed higher amounts of the protein deposits associated with Alzheimer's disease, according to a new study.

Fall's arrival means a new set of produce on the grocer's shelves. Butternut squash is one mainstay of the season and can be made into a hearty soup. Mark Bittman, author of the newly revised edition of his award-winning cookbook, "The Minimalist Cooks at Home," shares his recipes for butternut squash soup and chicken under a brick.
- 1 whole 3- to 4-pound chicken, trimmed of excess fat, rinsed, dried, and split, backbone removed
- 1 tablespoon fresh minced rosemary, or 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon coarsely chopped garlic
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 sprigs fresh rosemary, if available
- 1 lemon, cut into quarters
Baking Directions:
Time: 45 minutesPlace the chicken on a cutting board, skin side down, and press down as hard as you can with your hands to make it as flat as possible. Mix together the rosemary leaves, salt, garlic, and 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and rub this all over the chicken. Tuck some of the mixture under the skin as well. If time permits, cover and marinate in the refrigerator for up to a day (even 20 minutes of marinating is helpful).When you are ready to cook, preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. Preheat an ovenproof 12-inch skillet (preferably nonstick) over medium-high heat for about 3 minutes. Press the rosemary sprigs into the skin side of the chicken. Put the remaining olive oil in the pan and wait about 30 seconds for it to heat up.Place the chicken in the skillet, skin side down, along with any remaining pieces of rosemary and garlic; weight it with another skillet or one or two bricks or rocks, wrapped in aluminum foil. The basic idea is to flatten the chicken by applying a fair amount of weight evenly over its surface.Cook over medium-high to high heat for 5 minutes, then transfer to the oven. Roast for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and remove the weights; turn the chicken over (it will now be skin side up) and roast 10 minutes more, or until done (large chickens may take an additional 5 minutes or so). Serve hot or at room temperature, with lemon wedges.
- 2 pounds peeled butternut squash or other winter squash (weighed after peeling)
- 4 to 5 cups chicken or other stock
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Baking Directions:
Time: 40 minutesPlace the pumpkin or squash in a saucepan with stock to cover and a pinch of salt. Turn the heat to high and bring to a boil. Cover and adjust the heat so that the mixture simmers. Cook until the pumpkin or squash is very tender, about 30 minutes. If time allows, cool.Place the mixture, in batches if necessary, in the container of a blender and puree until smooth. (The recipe can be prepared a day or two in advance up to this point; cool, place in a covered container, and refrigerate.) Reheat, adjust seasoning, and serve.

Gulf Gasoline Weakens as Pasadena Plant Production Units Return
Gulf Coast gasoline weakened as Pasadena Refining System Inc., a unit of Petroleo Brasileiro SA, brought back all units at its refinery in Texas and analysts forecast a rise in U.S. inventories of the fuel.
"The refinery is fully operational," Pasadena Refining said in an e-mailed statement. The 106,500-barrel-a-day plant shut after a fire in a crude unit Sept. 30.
Total U.S. gasoline stocks may rise 1 million barrels to 207 million barrels in the period ending Nov. 4, according to the median forecast of 13 analysts in a Bloomberg survey.
The differential for reformulated, 87-octane gasoline in the Gulf Coast weakened 4.25 cents to a discount of 1.75 cents a gallon versus futures traded on the New York Mercantile Exchange in New York at 1:58 p.m., according to data compiled by Bloomberg. It is the lowest level since Oct. 31. Prompt delivery slipped 5.93 cents to $2.6939 a gallon.
Refinery use is expected to increase 0.35 percentage point to 85.65 percent, according to 10 analysts polled by Bloomberg.
Valero Energy Corp. completed a turnaround on equipment including a crude unit at its Three Rivers refinery in Texas, Bill Day, a company spokesman said in a Nov. 3 e-mail.

Women undergoing radiotherapy for breast cancer face a modestly higher risk of heart disease, according to a European study.
"Radiotherapy for breast cancer often involves some incidental exposure of the heart to ionizing radiation," researchers wrote in the March 14 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine, but the effect regarding subsequent risk of ischemic heart disease is uncertain.
Researchers with the Clinical Trial Service Unit at the University of Oxford in England conducted a population-based case-control study of major coronary events (myocardial infarction, coronary revascularization or death from ischemic heart disease) in 2,168 women who underwent radiotherapy for breast cancer between 1958 and 2001 in Sweden and Denmark. Among the cohort, 963 women experienced major coronary events.
Individual patient information was obtained from hospital records. For each woman, researchers estimated average radiation doses to the whole heart and to the left anterior descending coronary artery using data from the patients radiotherapy chart.
The overall average dose to the whole heart was 4.9 grays. Rates of major coronary events increased linearly with the average dose to the heart by 7.4% per gray. The increased risk started within the first five years after radiotherapy and continued into the third decade after.
The researchers determined that a 50-year-old woman with no cardiovascular risk factors has a 1.9% chance of dying of heart disease before age 80. Radiotherapy for breast cancer would increase that risk to between 2.4% and 3.4%, depending on how the level of radiation to which the heart was exposed.
Still, it "would be a real tragedy if [the findings]put women off having radiotherapy for breast cancer," Sarah Darby, PhD, the studys lead author, told the New York Times.
The study abstract is available at www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa1209825?query=featured_home.

I have had a recurring problem on my Windows 7 Home, 64 bit laptop. Whenever I eject a CD, the HDD spins and the system is unresponsive for as long as 20 minutes. If I don't want to wait, I have to do a hard reset to recover.
There are no events in the system log, Resource Monitor shows nothing unusual, just System, svchost running. As far as I can tell, there is no I/O occurring, just a spinning disk and unresponsive system.
The bios and all the drivers are up to date as is the OS.
It's an Optiarc DVD+-RW AD-7640S ATA Drive
I have searched until my fingers bled trying to figure this one out.
Any ideas, troubleshooting advice?
