Crime and Markets by Vincenzo Ruggiero
Book DescriptionThis book examines a range of criminal activities conducted in different European contexts. Offences committed by individuals and groups endowed with different resources and status are examined. Each chapter contains an implicit rejection of generalizations and attention is paid to variations and differences. Rather than searching for a unified theory of crime, the author highlights the interpretive oscillations, which always occur when we are faced with criminal behaviour. In other words, each time we subscribe to one cause of crime we may realize that also the opposite cause possesses some reasonable validity. The originality of this book consists of the 'causality of contraries' running through the chapters, whereby a tentative aetiology identified in one context finds its complete overturning in anther. The author regards the 'causality of contraries' as a crucial aspect of the anti-criminological tradition to which he claims affiliation. These 'essays in anti-criminology' deal with crimes of both the powerless and the powerful, and seek to demonstrate that both the deficiency and the abundance of legitimate opportunities may lead to crime. In the first part of the book a conventional criminal activity par excellence is examined, namely activity related to the economy of illicit drugs. In this economy the author notes a shift from a Fordist to a Toyota model of criminal activity, a shift determined by the expansion of demand and the growing variety of supply of illicit drugs. The second part of the book addresses specific cases of elite criminality, including illicit trafficking in arms and human beings. The chapters devoted to the analysis of political and administrative corruption in Italy, France, and Britain provide yet other examples of how illegal practices may be imputed to one cause in one context and its opposite in another. Two Intermezzos complete the book, posing more general questions, respectively, around the very concept of illicit 'drugs' and the evasive character of illicit economic behaviour.

New Directions in Contemporary Architecture by Luigi Prestinenza Puglisi
Book DescriptionRem Koolhaas has defined architecture as a chaotic adventure. Nothing could be more true than that of the last two decades. Never has architecture been so unbridled and so extraordinary: the architectural cast has never been so wide and their works so diverse. What though if you are new to the subject? How is it possible to make sense of this seemingly unruly architectural landscape? There are so many different types of architecture, so many designers with such varying and even contradictory approaches. This book is a much needed navigation guide for anyone interested in modern architecture. Organised chronologically, it enables you to find your way through one of the most prolific periods of building design. It looks at buildings in often contrasting styles that have been built almost simultaneously across the world with their roots in very different tendencies and schools of thought. A loose but effective framework is provided, which pulls all these multiple threads together, while key buildings are described individually with a unique clarity and precision.* Covers seminal works, such as Guggenheim Bilbao and the Jewish Museum in Berlin.* Features key architects: Norman Foster, Zaha Hadid, Herzog & de Meuron, Toyo Ito, Rem Koolhaas, Jean Nouvel and Renzo Piano* Illustrated with more than 220 colour images Order your copy today.

Theoretical Meltdown, Paperback (January 2009)
If the 20th century can be characterised by theories and manifestoes, which emanated across every sphere of life from politics to the fine arts, the beginning of the 21st century can be distinguished by its very break from theory.
New Directions in Contemporary Architecture, Hardback (April 2008)
Through its story-telling dimension, this book traces the last 20 years of Western architecture focusing attention on the current situation that includes designers' eclecticism and style, the star system, urban and landscape design as well as the influence on architecture exerted by the so-called 'digital revolution'.
Italy, Paperback (May 2007)» View all books by Luigi Prestinenza Puglisi
Every five or six years, a different country takes the architectural lead in Europe. In this ever shifting European landscape, Italy, which is already home to some of the world's most well-renowned architects, is set to challenge the status of other countries.

Lissajous figures are interesting curves that occur in systems where oscillation happens in more than one direction, for example when a pendulum hanging from a string moves in the plane.
These pictures are from an easy persistence of vision approach to playing with Lissajous figures. Read more about this project here.

Excellent 4.1 /5 from 165 reviews
A wonderful hotel, extensively redone with great service, amazing breakfast, extravagant roof pool, a literally 3-minute walk from the beach... Definitely, go there! Everybody was unbelievably helpful and just kind. When we got there, very late at night, the crib for the little one was already there, which is not, far from it, the case in some five-star hotels! We loved it!
We were excited about this stay and the pictures made it look great. However, the service from the front desk was sub-par, barking dogs in kennels below the room, and the desk person said she'd never heard dogs, and said everyone had already checked in and that we couldn't be moved (really 8 minutes after checkin all guests had arrived? She said "Yes!") Unlikely story. We were very glad we only stayed one night. It was nice to use the rooftop pool for a bit, but other than that we were in town and then checked out early to move on. Also, on checkout I noticed a large pool of water in the main walkway in the lobby, right next to the front desk area and that water was leaking from the ceiling. I pointed this out (thinking this is a safety liability for someone slipping and hurting themselves), and the front desk woman said, yes, it is fine we are monitoring it. Oi.
Everyone was very nice and we appreciated the courtesy room where we could shower in the afternoon after having checked out earlier. The rooftop pool is very nice. Not a long walk into town and very good beach access across the street.
We enjoyed our stay , but had trouble with the A/C in room 104
Room needed updating but rest of hotel very modern

UI alum places second on game show
A Champaign resident came up just short on the game show Jeopardy! on Thursday.
University of Illinois alumna and current university employee Dawn Owens-Nicholson finished in second place on Thursday's show, taking home $2,000.
She finished round one in third place with $2,200 but got on a roll in round two, finishing that round in the lead with $21,000. That round included a correct Daily Double response in the category of wedding anniversary gifts that netted Owens-Nicholson $10,000.
Owens-Nicholson did not put forth a guess in the Final Jeopardy! question in the category of classical music. But she wagered nothing, so she lost nothing.

BALTIMORE, MD (SEPTEMBER 13, 2012) — At approximately 3:17 p.m. today a Metro Subway train struck an unidentified adult male on the tracks near the West Cold Spring Metro Subway Station. Medics pronounced the unidentified male dead at the scene.
The adult male apparently entered the tracks at the West Cold Spring Metro Station and began walking westbound on the eastbound tracks when he was struck by a train travelling in the eastbound direction.
Maryland Transit Administration (MTA) personnel successfully evacuated passengers from that train without incident; there were no injuries reported by anyone on the train.
Police investigation of the accident scene is ongoing and service is expected to be impacted for much of the afternoon rush and into the evening. Additional MTA personnel will be on hand to help manage the expected heavy flow of traffic.
Metro Subway is operating from Owings Mills to Reisterstown Plaza AND from Johns Hopkins to Mondawmin. Shuttle bus service is in place between the Mondawmin and Reisterstown Road Plaza stations. Customers can catch a shuttle bus at the Mondawmin Loop and the Reisterstown Plaza Loop.
For more information on MTA service, visit the MTA website at www.mta.maryland.gov. Customers can also call the MTA Transit Information Customer Center Monday through Friday from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. at 410-539-5000.

How many people play MMORPGs as a solo experience? I know I spent more than 80% of my time in Star Wars: The Old Republic as a solo, mowing down monsters and leveling in the wastelands. It wasn't a nice sight to see someone else run up to kill the monsters I was busy farming for some sidequest.
When I asked the developers at ArenaNet about that experience and they way they were going to out perform their competitors in Guild Wars 2, they replied with a singular vision across several systems.
Many MMOs aren't truly cooperative. You're playing alongside each other more than you're playing together, so we tried to fix that by answering the question "How is this person going to negatively affect my gameplay?"One method is that every player attacking the same mob will get the same experience and reward they'd get for killing a monster solo. Johanson also said that Guild Wars 2 will empower every class as a solo, so that groups aren't so reliant on one character to get them through tough spots. You don't need a healer, or a tank, because classes can heal themselves and fulfill several roles on the field as necessary.
Even Jeff Grubb, Lead Story, Lore, and Continuity designer detailed how players will be able to interact with each other without having the world or the story come between them.
There's a lot of variety in the world and we've pushed ourselves to be creatively fearless. That means allowing players to join into a sidequest or a world event when it's already been triggered by another player.Experiencing that first hand meant entering an area and having to defend an engineer as he repaired irrigation pipes from marauders. A player in the area already was there when those same pipes were being attacked. Finding himself short handed, the marauders succeeded, but together we managed to push back the bandits and save the town.
I'm not so angry when someone walks up to me while I'm playing and killing mobs. I'm not so relieved when I find a spawn point where no one else is.Isaiah Cartwright summed up exactly what solo players are looking for in an MMO. As a systems lead in Guild Wars 2, he saw the raw numbers that could push players together, rather than pull them apart.
We'll continue to bring you more Guild Wars 2 coverage in the lead up to it's first major beta weekend. Be sure to check out our time with Guild Wars 2's Thief and our ArenaNet studio tour.

S5 Samsung Account Log in 'In Progress'
Hi guys,
Currently next to a very new black S5 and I have to say on first impressions it's looking very exciting indeed.
Is anybody else finding that under certain situations, the phone is stuck log in /signing in screens?
I am trying to log into my samsung account, my details are correct, but it gets stuck trying to log in. The notification turns to 'in progress' but even after multiple restarts I get the same issue.
(this is the same trying to log into a secondary gmail account)
Thoughts guys?

Re: S5 Samsung Account Log in 'In Progress'
There MAY be something wrong with the Samsung customer database. I logged in with my usual ID to register my S5. Then I entered the correct IMEI number. However, later I could not open the Samsung store with that ID. I had to create a new account.
Then I could not locate my S5 from their App website. I then registered my S5 again with the new account and noticed it showed I had two S5's with one having the wrong IMEI number. I could not enter the IMEI number at all in my second registration.
Thus, I called Samsung telephone support and they referred me to the Samsung Webmaster at the Samsung Customer Service web site. I sent him two messages and so far I have not heard anything.
I am not having any problems with my gmail account or their store account.
Edit as of one hour later: the webmaster fixed my account and it is now correct. He must have worked all last night since I suspect my account was not the only one with a problem.
Try to log into Samsung later today. Your account will also probably be fixed.

CssLogic skips on a selector-by-selector basis those rules that come from UA style sheets, when building the array of unmatched selectors.
(note that a sheet has multiple rules, and each rule has multiple selectors!)
We need to skip UA sheets entirely from being processed when building the array of unmatched selectors. This will improve performance in all of the Style Inspector use cases, irrespective of the "Show only user styles" checkbox state.
Created attachment 563092 [details] [diff] [review]
proposed fix
This patch changes the location of where the system rules are skipped.
It seems that system rules have been skipped inside the CssPropertyInfo code path. It should be quite faster to skip the system style sheets entirely in the CssLogic code path, so they never get processed.
(I don't know when the change was made for systemRules to be skipped in the unmatched selectors view...)
All tests pass on my system.

Weaver gets 4Ks as Angels thump Brewers
[caption id="attachment_118020" align="alignright" width="300" caption="Jered Weaver (AP)"][/caption]
Angels ace right-hander Jered Weaver sharpened the command of his changeup and worked on his off-speed pitches in four innings of the Saturday's Cactus League victory, 8-1, over the Milwaukee Brewers at Tempe Diablo Stadium.
(Read the game story in Sunday's edition of The Register plus the latest on Kendrys Morales here.)
Weaver, making his third start of the spring, allowed one run on two hits and one walk, while striking out four in his first time out with catcher Alberto Rosario.
"In the last two innings, I felt really locked in,…" said Weaver, who improved to 1-1 this spring. "There's just some fine tuning to work on with the off-speed stuff. Fastball command was good for the most part, and a lot better than in the last start."
Weaver took the loss in his last start on March 12 against the Dodgers, giving up three runs in 1.2 innings.
The Angels took a 2-1 lead in the second when Vernon Wells' double scored Bobby Abreu and Torii Hunter. Mark Trumbo's sacrifice fly scored Wells in the three-run inning.
Brewers starting left-hander Mike Fiers (0-1, 11.25 ERA) took the loss.

When a request is done using xmlhttprequest the callback is called with a

Source File: http://freeby/ajax/v2/formdemo.js
Line: 192
This happens in 'alert(req.status)' as wel as testing for the existince of the
property using if(req.status)
This happens both in the Firefox version above as well as version 0.9 on FreeBSD
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a XMLHttpRequest
2. make the server timeout (in Apache change the line 'TimeOut 300' in the
config file to something smaller
3. try to access the status property of the request object
Actual Results:
Javascript throws an exception.
Expected Results:
The status en statusText property should be defined, maybe with a undefined value.
The status also can't be read when the server is not reachable. Also the
readyState goes through status 2 (statusLoaded) and 3 (statusInteractive) before
reaching 4.
I am experiencing the same phenomenon. A workaround is to catch the exception,
although the exception should not have been thrown, as request.readyState should
not have had a value of 4.
This bug still occurs in FireFox 1.5 Beta 1.
Still happens on FF1.7 when the server is terminated before the request is sent. A status field like this needs to handle this situation.

Possible fix
We can't return "undefined" for an integer, but we can do the same thing as for a non-HTTP request -- return 0.

Possible fix
Per conversation with hixie, something like a 5xx code would make more sense here...
Stephen, Gabriel, Willem, what status code does IE return in this case?
> Per conversation with hixie, something like a 5xx code would make more sense
> here...
Really? 5xx seems to implicate the server, but that's not accurate. Also, don't we need to worry about changing the API in an incompatible way? What should the status codes be for 'file:' URLs?
I'd be aiming to not change anything for file: urls -- those would continue to return 0.
502 doesn't necessarily implicate the server you were trying to contact... Unfortunately, all the HTTP status codes do assume the server was contacted; none of them really mean "server didn't respond". 502 is the closest.

502 means there was a bad gateway. That doesn't really sound accurate to me.
The first sentence of section 10.5 says:
"Response status codes beginning with the digit "5" indicate cases in
which the server is aware that it has erred or is incapable of
performing the request."
That really doesn't describe the case of a server response that is still pending.
For still pending we want to keep throwing. I think we should only change behavior for cases where our readyState is 3 or 4 (which means either OnDataAvailable or OnStopRequest has been called). But network timeout will call OnStopRequest, as will connection refused, etc, right?
onStopRequest will always be called if asyncOpen returned success. so, yes.
Created attachment 205440 [details] [diff] [review]
Updated patch
This makes sure we still throw if readyState is not 3 or 4 (so if we're still waiting on initial server response). I sort of randomly decided that the generic 500 status code is good enough here, but I really don't care that much what we make it. IE uses 12029, which is ERROR_INTERNET_CANNOT_CONNECT (see http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/wininet/wininet/wininet_errors.asp). I don't really think we want to be following IE to the extent of using that status code; if we do decide to go that way, we should use whatever error status our OnStopRequest got.... ;)

Perhaps an internal error code would be more useful than a made-up 500 response that looks like it came from the server. Synthesizing a 500 response is bound to confound someone, who may end up blaming the server for the wrong thing, look in the server logs, wonder why the server logs show no 500 response, and so on...
I could just return NS_ERROR_NOT_AVAILABLE as the int, sure. Want me to?
The problem there is whether WHATWG can interoperably specify this. It seems like that would be desirable, but with NS_ERROR_NOT_AVAILABLE it's tough.
A WG could easily just say that the useragent will throw an error and not specify the error, right?
But we're not throwing an error. We're returning an integer. The error case we're going to throw NOT_AVAILABLE and be done with it; the problem is the non-error case.
I think we should consider doing what IE does.... looks like we haven't figured that out yet. Do we have a testcase? Probably not, right?... because it is difficult to simulate a network timeout?
Hixie wrote a testcase for this, actually, so we do know exactly what IE does. See comment 13 -- it returns an "HTTP status" of 12029, which corresponds to a WinAPI status code.
Sorry, I missed that while scrolling back through the comments. So, do you really think that faking a legit server response code is the best solution here? It doesn't feel right to me... perhaps we should have our own internal status code as well. Otherwise, we are overloading the meaning of the HTTP 5xx status codes.
Yeah, I have to admit that 500 does make me somewhat unhappy... ;)
Our internal status code would be NS_ERROR_NOT_AVAILABLE, I guess.
Yes, let's just return that then. I think that's more reasonable.
Created attachment 209107 [details] [diff] [review]
Updated to comments
Fixed. If someone feels a need for this to land on the 1.8 branch (so for Firefox 2), please request approval.
*** Bug 366930 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
The specification http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/~checkout~/2006/webapi/XMLHttpRequest/Overview.html?content-type=text/html;%20charset=utf-8 currently says that you have to set all members of the object to their initial values (excluding readyState). If you want this to change, by setting status to 500 for instance you should probably raise this on public-webapi.
I don't think we really care so much what we return here. I'm happy to return 0, as the spec would require.
We're going to need so many changes to implement that spec that it'll be more or less a wholesale rewrite of this file, though. I figure once the spec is in CR and there are tests (so we can test said rewrite) we'll file a bug to implement that spec.
Ah, thanks for the heads up!

El Dorado shows right approach
Despite playing in a howling two-club wind and on greens that had recently been punched and sanded, Thomas Gutierrez posted a 2-under par 34 to lead El Dorado past La Serna of Whittier, 195-233, on Wednesday at Black Gold Golf Club in Yorba Linda.
Gutierrez finished with two birdies, seven pars and needed only 14 putts to medal for the first time this spring.
"I hit more greens than I usually do today, and I putted pretty well," Gutierrez said. "But I have been putting well all season. I think the most putts I have had is 16.
"I just haven't been able to put a round like this together because I haven't been hitting greens."
Cole Alexander and Matt Lutz also broke 40 for the Golden Hawks (7-2), carding a 38 and 39, respectively. Both came within a matter of inches of holing their approaches on the par-4 ninth for an eagle.
Lutz's second shot landed on the fringe and nicked the right side of the cup before rolling to the back of the green. He 2-putted for par. Alexander's approach came to rest about 6 inches from the pin, leaving him with a tap-in birdie.
"They are starting to come into their own. Matt, Thomas and Cole are all solid players," El Dorado coach Wayne Carlson said. "But you need a good fifth and sixth guy, and that is what we are working on."
In girls swimming:
In the Pacific Coast League:
No. 2 University 87, Woodbridge 83: The Warriors and Daniela Georges showed they're improved, but the host Trojans still emerged with the victory.
Georges captured the 50- (23.70 seconds) and 100-yard (51.45) freestyles in automatic Division 1-qualifying times and was part of the winning 200 medley (1:50.57) and 400 freestyle (3:39.70) relays.
But University's overall depth produced the meet victory.
"I knew it would be close and I was hoping it would be the other way around," Woodbridge coach Pat Bangs said.
Georges' 50 ranks second in Orange County to Kaitlyn Albertoli's 23.68 for JSerra.
Annie Tran won the 100 butterfly in 57.53, just off the Division 1 automatic standard, for University.
In boys swimming:
In the Pacific Coast League:
No. 1 University 126, Woodbridge 44: Corey Okubo captured the 500 freestyle in 4:37.79 to lead a first-second-third sweep with Matt Wong (4:43.43) and George Horvath (4:46.00) for the host Warriors.

O' my sweet clematis,
so pretty hanging near me,
you look so parched,
its my water you seek,
O' my sweet clematis,
beautiful purple petals,
so fragrant to me,
in a vine, beauty hanging to peek.
O' my sweet clematis,
your bloom so short,
I want your blooms,
to never stop.
O' my sweet clematis,
pretty flower so neat,
don't stop your blooming,
when i take up your seat,
Flower of the orient,
you bring joy to my day,
when autumn whither your flowers away,
Come back to me in spring.

There's something about the summer heat that really makes us want to do, well, nothing at all! Staying cool and comfortable is usually our main focus. But sometimes we just aren't satisfied with staying in the house.
So what's the best alternative? Well, when the parks and swimming pools are just too hot to be any fun, we turn to the movie theaters! And if you're anything like us, when you think of movie theaters, you probably think of all of the candy involved!
Sure, you can—and probably are supposed to—buy the candy they sell there, but let's be honest. That theater selection sometimes just won't cut it. Luckily, we're here to help.
If your favorite cinema snack happened to involve peanut butter and chocolate, then we are here for you. Or, should we say, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups with Reese's Pieces are here for you. These gems are exactly what they sound like. Think: your favorite Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, filled to the brim with Reese's Pieces.
These sweets are just about the best thing since, well, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups! And since you'll be eating them inside the theater—which always seems to be just a little bit colder than you wanted—you won't have to worry about melting chocolate or messy fingers. Sounds like a win-win to us!
This is the perfect snack for people who never can seem to decide between Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and the very adorable Pieces. Because really, who can ever decide these things? Now you don't have to. You're welcome.
So go ahead! Be a rebel and bring your own candy to the movie theater this time! We have a feeling it will make your cinema experience much more enjoyable.
Krackel: The old school crunch in a new school sizeFriday, August 15th, 2014 by Becca Droz
Classroom/Movie Munchability: 8
Melt Measure: 8
Novelty: 6
Sharability: 7
It might not be the simplest candy to spell correctly, but this Hershey's bar shows simplicity with style. It is the classic milk chocolate bar with a little crisped rice crunch to keep you paying attention.
When Krackels was originally introduced in 1938 as a full size candy bar, it had almonds and crisped rice in the formula. Soon after, peanuts were added to the party. In 1941, while war was at large on the other side of the globe, Krackel became a crisped rice, and crisped rice only, chocolate bar. In the late 90s, Krackel availability shrunk, in physical size. For almost 20 years, the Krackel bar has only been available in the miniature fun size bar, and now, the bar the people have been asking for is back. Catch up with the Krackel full size! It's a blast from the past, the old school krunch in its old school/new school size!
The Zero Bar is far from a Zero!Thursday, July 15th, 2010 by Jon Prince
The Zero Bar is not your average candy bar as it is a candy with a history spanning over 70 years!
It was first introduced in the 1920's by the now defunct Hollywood Brands Candy Company and is now owned by Hershey Foods although this transition took place over many years and included many owners in between.
The candy bar is unique in that it consists of a delicious amalgamation of almonds, peanuts and caramel nougat covered, or shall we say , drenched, with delicious white fudge. This was even more controversial upon its release as most candy bars then, as now, are coated in milk chocolate.
As per the name, this has been the subject of candy lore as it was not touted as a reduced calorie candy bar – hence the name Zero – but rather because the white coating was supposed to give the impression of snow and, metaphorically speaking, "cool as zero degrees"
The original wrapper had a Polar Bear on it and upon it's initial release, was called Double Zero. It wasn't until 1934 that it formally became known as the Zero Bar
The original Zero Bars were distributed in the summer as fudge has a much higher melting point than milk chocolate and, as there wasn't air conditioning readily available when the bar was first released; retailers stored this in their refrigerators.
Yes, this candy bar like others will melt if exposed to high temperatures but there is something intriguing about this bar that makes it endure as a classic if only because it is delicious and holds true to it's original formula and because it is over 70 years old!
PS: The vintage Zero Bar wrapper pictured above is VERY rare as it shows the Polar Bear! This is circa early 1930's
Milky Way Simply Caramel offers a totally Caramel experienceTuesday, July 13th, 2010 by Jon Prince
Did you know that the first chocolate bar with a filled center was the beloved Milky Way bar, made by Mars, which was created by Frank Mars in 1923. However consistent this candy bar has remained for over 87 years, it is important to note that note all Milky Way bars are created equal.
The Milky Way bar that is offered in the United States is a delicious amalgamation of chocolate malt nougat topped with caramel and covered with rich milk chocolate BUT the Milky Way Bar offered on "distant shores" is not topped with caramel and is therefore similar to the American 3 Musketeers.
Confused? The Milky Ways sold in the United States is similar in taste to the Mars Bar sold in Europe.
Just when you think that you understand the subtle differences, Mars throws us a challenge with their new and delicious Milky Way Simply Caramel.
Unlike its siblings, this is identical throughout the world and, according to Masterfoods USA, it is "for consumers seeking a totally caramel experience" and is "tempting with rich, creamy caramel surrounded by real milk chocolate."
It is a delicious new candy bar and there are few companies that can take a tried and tested classic and make it better as Masterfoods USA has done with Milky Way Simply Caramel
Dark Chocolate Clark Bars – A history of a classic candy bar revisted!Friday, July 9th, 2010 by Jon Prince
The former pride of Pittsburgh and McKeesport , the beloved Clark Bar, has just released a All Natural Dark Chocolate version which is truly a unique twist on one of the best tasting candy bars available
In case you are not familiar with Clark Bars, they are a candy bar consisting of a honeycomb peanut butter crisp center with a rich milk chocolate covering.
The signature item of one of the country's largest candy empires started in 1891 with a small operation run by young entrepreneur David L. Clark located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Within a few years, he made enough money to open a modest factory in McKeesport which is where CandyFavorites has been located since we opened our candy filled warehouse in 1927 ( actually it was in 1926 but we didn't incorporate until a year later)
By 1911, the candy had become so popular that the company was forced to relocate, and Mr. Clark purchased a large building from a cracker manufacturer.
In the 1920's, when the company was making approximately one hundred and fifty (150) different types of candy and gum, Mr. Clark decided to create a separate company for the gum-making business, thinking that the candy and gum operations would be more successful if run separately.
He opened the Clark Brothers Chewing Gum Co. across the street from his candy factory and his family continued to run the business until 1955. The company remained a Pittsburgh mainstay for several decades but ran into financial difficulties in the 90s and the brand was rescued by the New England Confectionary Company known to candy lovers as NECCO.
In 2010, the formula was changed for Clark Bars and now includes All Natural Ingredients. The Dark Chocolate version of the Clark Bar is one of the few examples of a formula being improved and we think that this variation is so delicious that, someday, it too will become a classic!
Take A Moment to Enjoy Silky Smooth Dove Dark ChocolateWednesday, June 2nd, 2010 by Becca Droz

If you think of yourself as someone who just doesn't do dark chocolate, one of those people who thinks dark chocolate is just too bitter or too sophisticated or not sweet enough or not smooth enough, think again. If you think that you fit at least slightly under that description then I would argue that you have not tried Dove's smooth dark chocolate.
This candy bar of Dove chocolate is! It melts smoothly in your mouth leaving you craving more, but be careful because it does follow the trend of most candies in that less is more. As long as the candy bar comes perforated to break into separate chunks you might as well make someone's day silky smooth with the generous offer.
Dove from the Mars company makes sure that its chocolate is not too sweet or too bitter, but is as delectable as it is by making sure the perfect ratio of chocolate liquor and cocoa butter is put in the chocolate.
I can just imagine one of those society driven people bustling through a stressful day of business plans and kids' arrangements, or a teenager after a long day at school, or backpackers after a long hike, or a young child after a day, or a grandparent after a sports event being interrupted by a friend or a stranger and asked if they want a piece of Dove's silky smooth dark chocolate.
I can imagine they take it as they would take most pieces of chocolate, with mild excitement and mild thanks, thinking it's going to be equally as good as the bag of M&Ms they gobbled down an hour ago but upon putting this piece of chocolate in their mouth all of the worries and problems, all thoughts of past and future drift away into nothingness (which is really what they were to begin with) and all that is left is a moment of chocolate bliss where the entire body is focusing on the magical taste of silky smooth dark chocolate nowness, every muscle in the body is trying to conserve the taste as it melts away, until, there it was, a moment of presence brought to you by Dove's silky smooth dark chocolate.
The Somewhat Healthy Side of Candy: RaisinetsMonday, April 12th, 2010 by Becca Droz
Sharability: 8
Denture Danger: 6
Convenience: 7

Overall: 9
California raisins, Nestlé milk chocolate, melty, chewy, sweet, fruity, Raisinets are a classic concession candy.
They are great for movies because you can make them last a long time by chewing and enjoying each one individually (and even letting some of your friends munch down a couple), and they are a silent candy and therefore won't distract you from the movie and won't distract your neighbors either.
Nestlé wants you to know that Raisinets are not just for movies anymore and I would agree, I ate a bag just for fun and it was great.
The Blumenthal Chocolate Company originally introduced Raisinets in 1927; Nestlé took it over in 1984. Today you can check out the Raisinets channel on youtube and watch silly videos of cartoon Raisins pretending to be real people… mildly entertaining.
There's a lot of ways to catch some rays, but none like Raisenets.
Heath Bar, Not Quite a Health BarTuesday, April 6th, 2010 by Becca Droz

Heath bar… a delightfully sweet and cruncharific candy bar. Super sweet English toffee with a hint of almonds coated in milk chocolate for the candy that will demand you to finish it.
Toffee is toffee and toffee will get stuck in your teeth, but it won't stop you from enjoying every sugary mouth watering bite of this thin candy bar.
In 1914 L.S. Heath opened a confectionary store in Illinois. His sons, Bayard and Everett Heath, ran the store and perfected the Heath toffee bar recipe in 1928; by 1932 the bar was on the market. The Heath bar was made fully by hand for ten years until the company modernized its plant.
The Heath brothers came up with a great marketing scheme in which they made the candy bar available for delivery via Heath dairy trucks along with milk and cottage cheese. This marketing idea must have worked better than the one that marketed the bar as healthy: "Heath for better health!"
I just don't think there is and chocolate covered toffee bar out there that can actually be considered healthy. The Heath bar was another candy bar that the government had distributed to the military during World War II. Leaf North American Confectionary bought Heath in 1989 and Hershey took that over in 1996.
Healthy or not healthy, a Heathy is a great choice.
Munchin' on Military M&Ms and Peanut M&MsThursday, April 1st, 2010 by Becca Droz
Sharability: 8
Denture Danger: 4
Convenience: 7
Novelty: 9
Overall: 9
Mars company manufactures the M&M, which is milk chocolate, covered in a hard candy shell, but you know that. What you might not know is where the idea for M&Ms originated.
During the Spanish Civil War in the 1930s Forrest Mars Sr. saw soldiers eating chocolate pellets surrounded by a hard shell as to prevent them from melting. Mars took this genius idea and patented his own version in 1941.
During World War II M&Ms were sold exclusively to the military. In 1954, the slogan that Elizabeth Granberry Hill Mckean wrote was trademarked, fitting well with the original purpose of the candy, "The milk chocolate that melts in your mouth, not in your hand."
In terms of the name of the candy, one M comes from Forrest Mars Sr., the founder of the Mars Company, and one comes from Bruce Murrie, the son of William Murrie, the former Hershey's president. Murrie had 20% interest in the candy, which made it possible for Mars to make the M&Ms with Hershey's chocolate, a bit ironic, eh?
Peanut M&Ms have more substance to them and are more fun because you can either munch on them with the chocolate and peanut together or eat them separately. You can melt the chocolate away and then chew down the peanut or you can carefully separate the peanut from the chocolate in your mouth, either way they can keep you occupied if you are watching a boring movie.
M&Ms now come in almost every color you can imagine, but brown, green, yellow, orange, red, and blue are most common.
Some fun facts about M&Ms are that the m on the front of the M&M was printed in black until 1954 and also, M&Ms have been up in space to demonstrate antigravity. Whether you are eating them in space or here on Earth, this classic candy won't disappoint.
3 Musketeers: 'Whipped Up, Fluffy, Chocolate on Chocolate Taste' and 75th Anniversary 3 Musketeers MintMonday, February 8th, 2010 by Becca Droz

There were a number of years in which I called 3 Musketeers my favorite candy and it isn't a mystery why. The 'whipped up', fluffy chocolate in the center of the milk chocolate shell may look like wet cat food but the taste, consistency, and texture are in a league of their owns.
In August 2007, 3 Musketeers came out with the 75th anniversary addition of the candy, The 3 Musketeers mint with dark chocolate. This version has a filling of a similar texture and consistency as the whipped, fluffy chocolate, but its taste matches right up with that of the filling of a York peppermint patty.
In fact the 3 Musketeers mint is basically a peppermint patty in bar form. It also differs from the normal 3 musketeers in that it comes in two separate bars instead of one full size bar, which makes sharing a little easier.
In 1932 3 Musketeers was the third brand to be produced by the Mars Company. It originally had 3 small bars inside the package—hence the name—with three different flavors, vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate.
This version of the bar stopped being manufactured, most likely because of the rising costs and taxes on sugar during wartime. So the most popular of the three, chocolate, took over the package.
Fun Fact: The 3 Musketeers bar is known as Milky Way outside of the U.S. and Canada (we have our own Milky Way).

Aecom and BIM Academy team to create BIM/FM system for Sydney Opera House
Sydney Opera House has appointed Aecom, Newcastle-based consultant BIM Academy and London-based software house EcoDomus to deliver a technical solution that will link retrospective BIM models, FM systems and building management control systems at the global landmark.
The project will result in a cloud-based 3D graphical interface that maps both the physical and functional characteristics of Australia's most famous building.
The trio won the project following a tender process, which itself was informed by earlier consultancy work by BIM Academy in 2013 for the Opera House.
Speaking to BIM+, BIM Academy managing director Peter Barker said: "The Opera House has a number of systems to manage the facility, using different software, and database formats. The idea is to provide a fully-integrated FM system hosted around a 3D model.
"It is an ambitious programme to take on but New South Wales [which owns the Opera House] wants to be seen as leaders in innovation."
He also anticipated that that the approach adopted by the Opera House could be taken up by more clients and property owners in the future. "We're seeing interest from UK estate owners in this kind of approach, for instance from universities. Often they have disparate management systems, operating in silos. So we expect we'll see more clients investing in upfront strategic consultancy so that they can understand their needs."
In Sydney, the new BIM interface will provide a single source of information for building maintenance and operational requirements during the opera house's "Decade of Renewal", as well as ongoing new works and projects at the site.
In a press release, Sydney Opera House director of building Greg McTaggart commented: "As we embark on the first stage of Opera House Renewal, it is critical that we have the technical infrastructure in place to effectively manage the pipeline of upcoming development projects, as well as to support the ongoing management and conservation of this architectural masterpiece.
"After initially assessing the market it quickly became clear there was no single BIM solution that could be applied to both development and construction projects as well as ongoing facilities management of the Opera House. We identified a gap in the industry and decided to tender for a bespoke, user-friendly solution."
"The Opera House is truly unique so it's exciting that we have the opportunity to develop bespoke, leading-edge building technologies that not only meet our specific needs but also those of the wider industry itself."
The solution put forward by the Aecom-led consortium uses cloud-based technology, allowing staff to access it using mobile devices while working on site. External consultants will also be able to access the system when working on projects.
The new BIM interface will link a number of current Opera House databases including a technical documents database, maintenance software, a comprehensive rooms database and the TRIM document management system.
It will also draw on laser scanning data captured two years ago for the Opera House's 40th Anniversary by The Scottish Ten, an international 3D scanning project.
The first phase of the 18-month project will involve retrieving and linking information from existing and new databases via the 3D model, while the second will introduce a broader range of functional modules that can be added to the BIM interface over time.

How much do distressed homes depress values?
Real estate tracker CoreLogic watches local home values by two measures -- one bit of math includes all sales; the second eliminates transactions involved "distressed" properties that are typically sold at a discount to market value. What does their respective performances tell us?In Orange County in April, home prices -- including distressed sales -- declined by 1.2 percent vs. a year ago. That's better than the 2.6 percent annual drop seen in March.
But the pricing looks even firmer when CoreLogic stripped out distressed sales. Local year-over-year prices was up 0.5 percent vs. April 2011 after a annual rate of decline of 1 percent in March.
For California, pricing was up 0.1 percent for all sales in the year; and up 2.6 percent with distressed deals tossed out.
Nationwide, prices with distressed sales, increased year-over-year basis by 1.1 percent in April -- first back-to-back gains (index was up in March, too!) since June 2010. When CoreLogic took out distressed sales, prices increased 2.6 percent in the year ended in April.
Mark Fleming, chief economist for CoreLogic, on th enational scene: "Excluding distressed sales, home prices in March and April are improving at a rate not seen since late 2006 and appreciating at a faster rate than during the tax-credit boomlet in 2010. ... Nationally, the supply of homes in current inventory is down to 6.5 months, a level not seen in more than five years, in part driven by the 'locked in' position of so many homeowners in negative equity."

I guess it's too late to answer now but for future people looking into the Kiruna forum, yes the Scandic Ferrum hotel in the center has a night club Fridays and Saturdays (from 22.00 the night club is open I think - before then it's the pub).
There is also a disco called Babylon if still there. It is in Föreningsgatan 9 and used to be a mix of disco and live gig place.

I've sent four emails in the past two weeks with no response. Pity, I was keen on getting one of these.
That is actually the manufacturers selling page for the havana I think. It does say seller: mhdt labs
A new review here of the Havana DAC, done by the same guy who reviewed the other MHDT DACs.
Im using the Havana with my T1/O2 MK1s. All I can say is wow, it sounds much different than my Cary 306. Voices especially sound incredibly natural. My Havana isn't anywhere near being burned in yet, but it sounds VERY nice. Its also a lot smaller than I thought it would be, I'd actually label it "Cute" looking lol. Its actually quite detailed where I thought one of NOS dacs weaknesses were detail. Soundstage sounds quite expansive as well. I need to let it burn in some more though, maybe get a better tube since I hear the GE 5670 isn't exactly the greatest. I might add, the synergy with the O2s is very good, I think better than my Cary. The Cary does sound quite digital, especially after listening to the Havana, so now the music sounds a lot fuller and natural and works well with the O2 (some things through the Cary sound incredibly dry with the O2).
Edit: Man I just cannot get over how enthralling female vocals are through this tiny thing. Oh and piano and violin sound very natural. Its hard to mimic its real tone and stuff but I think the Havana does an excellent job. So what are good tubes for the Havana? I heard the Bendix 6385 was the best but incredibly hard to find and Sylv gold pins stink Any other good choices?
