Sorry there was supposed to be a period there instead of a question mark.

2009/365/7 Got Snark?
Today Amazon delivered my copy of Snark -- "It's Mean, It's Personal, and It's Ruining Our Conversation"
Oh dear. I thought this book would be celebrating my beloved state of mind, but nooo....
"IIn this sharp and witty polemic, New Yorker critic and bestselling author David Denby takes on the snarkers, naming the nine principles of snark -- the standard techniques its practitioners use to poison their arrows. Snarkers like to think they are deploying wit, but mostly they are exposing the seethe and snarl of an unhappy country, releasing bad feeling but little laughter.... Denby has fun snarking the snarkers, expelling the bums and promoting the true wits, but he is also making a serious point: the Internet has put snark on steroids. In politics, snark means the lowest, most insinuating and insulting side can win. For the young, a savage piece of gossip could ruin a reputation and possibly a future career. And for all of us, snark just sucks the humor out of life. Denby defends the right of any of us to be cruel, but shows us how the real pros pull it off. Snark, he says, is for the amateurs.
I might have to pull out my snark about Snark.

Rainbow Trout With Walnut Herb Stuffing
|Minced shallots
|2 Tablespoon
|2 , sliced diagonally
|Fish stock
|1 Tablespoon (Sausalito Brand)
|Chopped celery
|1⁄2 Cup (8 tbs) (With Leaves)
|2 Tablespoon
|Watercress leaves
|1⁄4 Cup (4 tbs), chopped
|Minced dill/1/2 teaspoon dried dill
|1 Tablespoon
|Whole wheat bread crumbs
|1 Cup (16 tbs)
|3 Tablespoon, minced
|Tamari soy sauce/Soy sauce
|2 Teaspoon
|Rainbow trout
|2 Pound, scaled and gutted orange slices (4 Pieces, 1/2 Pound Each)
|Watercress sprigs
|3 (For Garnishing)
Place the shallots and scallions in a medium-size skillet with the stock.
Cook over low to medium heat until the scallions are wilted.
Stir in the celery and add the water.
Cover and steam for 1 to 2 minutes, then stir in the watercress.
Remove from the heat when the watercress is wilted.
In a medium-size bowl, combine the dill, bread crumbs, walnuts, and celery mixture.
Sprinkle with the tamari and toss lightly.
If you prefer to serve the fish with heads and tails on, stuff each fish with one-fourth of the filling.
Place each fish on a lightly oiled piece of aluminum foil or kitchen parchment and fold over the ends to protect the head and tail from scorching.
Arrange some orange slices over the exposed middle section of each fish to prevent drying out in the oven.
Bake at 350° just until the fish is opaque and cooked through, about 15 to 20 minutes.
Carefully remove the fish to a serving platter, remove the orange slices, and garnish with watercress, if desired.

Skip to comments.357 Magnum
Posted on 07/02/2010 12:46:39 PM PDT by Errant
Did you know that the 28th of June, 2010 was the 75th anniversary of the 357 magnum which was introduced in 1935?
A windy but great video with much information for anyone interested in the 357 magnum handgun. Great shooting by Hickok45 starting 9 minutes into the video.
marking for later viewing at home
has been my handgun of choice for years....
I should take my S&W Model 19 Combat Magnum out for dinner and some shooting.
my favorite loading is 8.6 grains of unique and a 110grain jhp. nice and flat shooting and around 1450fps velocity
I love the .357 Magnum and have three.
Ping for later.
I like unique powder as well. It's pretty darn flexible but smoky sometimes when using cast bullets with bullet lubricant.
Major Smith fan, I.
However I like the style and feel of my Python 6 " blue, which I bought new in '74 from my uncle's basement gun shop (remember when the ATF stopped by for coffee ?)
I have a brace of Smiths in .22 and .38 from the 50s and 60s and I think they may be the best. The Python is unique, however.
It is a genuine Smith from 1978. My favorite story is how I acquired it.
I was stationed at Mtn. Home AFB, Mtn. Home, ID. I was helping a friend move from the base to Boise, ID, about 50 miles away. It was late and I decided to spend the night with him rather than drive back.
So I went to a drug store to buy a toothbrush and some toothpaste. While there, I noticed that this drug store, a CVS or Rite-Aid like place, had a little glass case in the corner and they were selling handguns and knives.
With my toothbrush and toothpaste in hand, I went over to look at the offerings. The cashier said she could ring me up there, and asked if there was anything else. I saw the S&W Model 19, 4" barrel, at a great price, so I said "yup, that one, please."
This was 1978, so there were no waiting periods, no background checks. Filled out the federal paperwork and walked out with a toothbrush, toothpaste, and a handgun.
Only in America (or used to be...)
You sound like me but mine are all .45s.
I think that was a .44 magnum in Dirty Harry's hand.
"Wow, that's a nice setup you have there! Do you hand load?"
No, but I once shot my hot water heater;-{)
LOL, did you "plug the hole" daddy?
Where did you get those moon clips for the .44? Mrs. L would love them.
My Python needs a nice treat of fresh 158gr JHP!
I have a 45 too and will be getting a few more.
I have a 45 too and will be getting a few more.
i got to be a fan of using 14.5gr 296 with 158gr lswc. good for 1500fps+.
That's a .44, my friend. Virtual hand cannon.
It was represented as a .44 but it was actually a .41 Mag S&W.
That scrawny thing is about to get tattooed on the forehead!
That's a S&W 686+ .357, That one is not mine but I have the same one. I have a couple speed loaders, but never have used moon clips.
http://www.midwayusa.com/ or http://www.brownells.com/ would be a good place to buy a present for Mrs. L.
"This was 1978, so there were no waiting periods, no background checks. Filled out the federal paperwork and walked out with a toothbrush, toothpaste, and a handgun.
Only in America (or used to be...)"
Still is around these parts. Not sure how much longer.
I'm looking to get a Ruger Redhawk in 45 colt.
My mistake. Mrs. L has a 629 that looks remarkably similar.
"That scrawny thing is about to get tattooed on the forehead"
And burried in a PVC Tube?
Hey Darth, did you get that S&W 460XVR yet?
Its a "safe queen", too valuable to use for home defense.
In celebration, the 686 and I are going on a date tomorrow...
"I know what you're asking yourself, punk. 'Did he shoot seven shots, or only six?'..."
I know DW is under new management, any trouble finding parts for those? I would like to get a little shorter barrel. On the other hand, I wouldn't mind getting the longest available, and making a carbine stock for it.
My favorite too. My small S&W collection has Model 19s in three barrel lengths, and my carry gun is a Model 66 snubbie.
Not yet but I will be looking to get it at a gun show at the end of July. I just got a new and rarely used Ruger 10/22 Sporter Carbine this past Saturday with a Simmons 22 MAG 3-9x32 scope for $300.
That is sweet! I love the Ruger revolvers, they are built like tanks. One of my .357 Magnums is a Ruger SP101 which I just love.
I intend to add the following Rugers to my collection
GP-100 KGP-161 SS .357 Magnum
Super Redhawk KRSH9440 .44 Magnum
Super Redhawk KRSH7480 .480 Ruger
Super Redhawk KRSH7454 .454 Casull
Similar story. I had just arrived in the summer in Fairbanks AK, was going out Grayling fishing and stopped in a sport shop to get geared up for flyfishing. I noticed a glass counter on the way out with some revolvers and one had a decent price for it's caliber, a Hawes .44 mag Western Marshall. Felt more comfortable walking by those 10 inch wide bear tracks in the mud fishing after that. I think I paid around one hundred and some small change.
yeah I noticed that with using it in 9mm as well. use 5.4gr with a 115gr fmj. shooting it in a Browning HP leaves all kinds of residue around the ejection port

Grabner had shown flashes of brilliance before the dreaded trade to Florida. Look at the skills he has now. That one timer against the Laffs tonight was terrific. Hodgson is flourishing. He is a valuable right handed shot. His blast against Thomas in the Bruins game was Yzerman-esque. And he was dealt for Zack Kassian. Kassian is not in the same league as Hodgson, unfortunately.

|DateTools performance
|Thu, 21 May 2009 13:52:55 GMT
How much is DateTools in use? I noticed a couple of potential improvements to it, which at least for the benchmark package can improve performance: 1. timeToString calls Calendar.getInstance on every call? That's a very expensive call to make. Why not store it as a static member? We always call it with GMT timezone, and it reads internally the default Locale, so I don't think it will change when the JVM is up, unless someone calls Locale.setDefault() at some point. If we'll do this then we will need to make the method synchronized though ... but I don't think that's too critical. 2. dateToString calls timeToString(date.getTime()), which then instantiates a new Date(). Kind of wasteful, isn't it? 3. round(), which is called from timeToString (after creating a Calendarr instace) creates another (!) Calendar instance ... I found one usage in QueryParser when it parses range queries and some more in the test package. I don't mind fixing those. Shai

'Eco-Kids' Save The Earth By Annoying You
Oh, good: at the same time that parents nationwide find that their savings have evaporated, their children are becoming increasingly strident about harassing them to buy solar panels, hybrid cars, and organic produce. Not only that, but apparently our tax dollars are funding public schools that turn out an army of little Green giants ready to scream over watered lawns and plastic bags. You can almost see their parents smiling tightly through gritted teeth: "That's...good, very good." But as soon as a reporter calls, the adults are ready with an entire litany of annoying complaints:
"They're on my case about getting a hybrid car. They want me to replace all the light bulbs in the house with energy-saving bulbs."
Do they have jobs?
In Clinton Hill, Brooklyn, Jan Schmidt, a stay-at-home mother, and Mark Goetz, a professor of furniture design, have watched, amazed, as their 4-year-old son chastises them for letting the water run while they brush their teeth. "He'll come over and turn it off and say, 'Every day is Earth Day,' " Ms. Schmidt said. "He learned it at school."
Ha, I bet she said that happily.
"They'll say, 'Mom, I thought we weren't supposed to use plastic bags,' " she said. Douglas and Alison Distefano, of Rumson, N.J., who have two children, dubbed their fifth grader, Olivia, "the recycling militant general."
That's nice, sweetie.
Paul Wyckoff, a writer in Hunterdon County, N.J., said his 15-year-old son, Will, yells at him for "leaving the car idling for a few seconds in the driveway." He has even taken to turning off nightlights to save energy. "My philosophy is get the big stuff," Mr. Wyckoff said. "I think he takes it too far. But I'm proud of him. I think he'll moderate with age."
Kids: shut up. You're turning your parents into Republicans. [NYT]

French cuisine has influenced the eating habits of people around the world, especially those who enjoy "haute cuisine" in restaurants. But there are also many regional (or "provincial") styles of cooking that remain unique to France.
1 small head lettuce
2 c. fresh peas
12 pearl onions
4 parsley sprigs
4 oz. butter
1/4 c. water
1 t salt
Pinch sugar
Remove outer leaves from the head of lettuce and remove stem. Cut lettuce head into quarters. Tie quarters together with kitchen string and place in a large pot. Add the peas and peeled pearl onions. Tie parsley sprigs together with fine kitchen string and place on top. Cut up butter and sprinkle on top of vegetables. Pour in the water. Sprinkle on the salt and sugar. Cover pot and bring to a boil. Simmer for 30 minutes over medium-low heat. Make sure water does not completely evaporate. Remove parsley and string from lettuce before serving.

Boosted Ride of the Month: January - Jose Fernandez's 2002 Acura RSX Type-S
What do you do when your stock 2002 Acura RSX Type-S isn't quite fast enough? Build the motor and add a 6262 turbo!
Posted By Precision | Published December 20, 2012
Boosted Ride of the Month: January - Jose Fernandez's 2002 Acura RSX Type-S
Name: Jose Fernandez
Location: Tampa, FL
Vehicle: 2002 Acura RSX Type-S
Turbo: Precision 6262 turbocharger
What do you do when your stock 2002 Acura RSX Type-S isn't quite fast enough? Well, if you're Jose Fernandez you drop in a 2006 K24A2 motor, beef it up and then add a Precision 6262 turbocharger.
The engine build consists of a Benson sleeved block and Manley Turbo Tuff connecting rods, CP 11.1 compression pistons, ACL race bearings, and an OEM head gasket with ARP head studs while Innovative motor mounts help keep the car's heart firmly in place. Proven Power of Tampa ported the cylinder head, RBC and throttle body and also supplied the turbo kit itself, including custom piping. The Acura's valvetrain got a complete overhaul with Supertech parts including valves, guides, springs and retainers. Handling the fuel supply is an Aeromotive 340 in-tank pump that works with a Bosch 044 in-line pump, an Aeromotive fuel filter with -10 AN feed lines and a -6 AN return, as well as an Aeromotive fuel pressure regulator and gauge, and a Golden Eagle fuel rail feeding 2200 CC injectors. For the drivetrain, Jose opted to add a Synchrotech 1-5 carbon synchro set, a Quaife limited slip differential and a Competition cluch.
The Hondata K-Pro EMS was tuned by Proven Power and made an astounding 689 WHP and 570 WTQ at just 25 PSI on E85 fuel! To catch a video of Jose's beastly RSX on the dyno, visit http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8ONpBPMfc8.
Currently used mostly as a daily driver and for some track time, Jose plans to continue building his RSX until it becomes an all-out, dedicated track queen.

|[jira] Commented: (LUCENE-2762) Don't leak deleted open file handles with pooled readers
|Wed, 17 Nov 2010 17:52:13 GMT
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2762?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12933051#action_12933051 ] Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-2762: -------------------------------------------- So with this patch, we now build the CFS for a merged segment before adding that segment to the segment infos. This is important, to prevent an NRT reader from opening the pre-CFS version, thus tying open the files, using up extra disk space, and leaking deleted-but-open files even once all NRT readers are closed. But, unfortunately, this means the worst-case temporary peak free disk space required when using CFS has gone up... this worst case is hit if you 1) open an existing index, 2) call optimize on it, 3) the index needs more than 1 merge to become optimized, and 4) on the final merge of that optimize just after it's built the CFS but hasn't yet committed it to the segment infos. At that point you have 1X due to starting segments (which cannot be deleted until commit), another 1X due to the segments created by the prior merge (now being merged), another 1X by the newly merged single segment, and a final 1X from the final CFS. In this worst case that means we require 3X of your index size in temporary space. In other cases we use less disk space (the NRT case). And of course if CFS is off there's no change to the temp disk space. I've noted this in the javadocs and will add to CHANGES... But... I think we should improve our default MP. First, maybe we should set a maxMergeMB by default? Because immense merges cause all sorts of problems, and, likely are not going to impact search perf. Second, I think if a newly merged segment will be more than X% of the index, I think we should leave it in non-compound-file format even if "useCompoundFile" is enabled... I think there's a separate issue open somewhere for that 2nd one. > Don't leak deleted open file handles with pooled readers > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-2762 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2762 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.9.4, 3.0.3, 3.1, 4.0 > Reporter: Michael McCandless > Assignee: Michael McCandless > Attachments: LUCENE-2762.patch > > > If you have CFS enabled today, and pooling is enabled (either directly > or because you've pulled an NRT reader), IndexWriter will hold open > SegmentReaders against the non-CFS format of each merged segment. > So even if you close all NRT readers you've pulled from the writer, > you'll still see file handles open against files that have been > deleted. > This count will not grow unbounded, since it's limited by the number > of segments in the index, but it's still a serious problem since the > app had turned off CFS in the first place presumably to avoid risk of > too-many-open-files.
