ASP.NET, successor to Microsoft's Active Server Pages (ASP), is so complete and flexible that a web developer's main difficulty may lie simply in weaving the pieces together for maximum efficiency. The new edition of Programming ASP.NET shows developers how to do just that. Updated for Version 1.1 of the NET framework and Visual Studio .NET 2003, the second edition of this bestselling .NET title will show you how to create dynamic, data-driven web sites and services using both C# and Visual Basic .NET.In Programming ASP.NET, Second Edition authors Jesse Liberty and Dan Hurwitz cover everything you need to know to be effective with ASP.NET. The book includes a comprehensive tutorial on Web Forms, which, in conjunction with Visual Studio .NET 2003, allow you to apply Rapid Application Development techniques (including drag-and-drop control placement) to web development. Programming ASP.NET includes extensive coverage of each type of server control, including Web server controls, HTML server controls, and custom controls. New material covers creating ASP.NET pages for mobile devices.Since most web applications and web services involve retrieving data and returning it to a client browser, Programming ASP.NET Second Edition also offers extensive coverage of data access issues. These include topics such as using ASP.NET's list-bound controls; accessing data using the ADO.NET object model, and updating data with or without transaction support.Programming ASP.NET also discusses such advanced topics as:

Our look is the result of reader comments, our own experimentation, and feedback from distribution channels. Distinctive covers complement our distinctive approach to technical topics, breathing personality and life into potentially dry subjects. The animal on the cover of Programming ASP.NET, Second Edition, is a stingray. The stingray is a cartilaginous fish, distinguished from other types of rays by the sawedged, venomous spines that adorn its whip-like tail. Stingrays have flat, disk-shaped bodies without distinct heads. They have well-developed pectoral fins, which undulate to propel their bodies through the water. Stingrays' eyes are on the top sides of their bodies, while their mouths are on their undersides. Because of this, they cannot see what they are eating and sometimes leave "hickeys" on scuba divers.Stingrays live in shallow bays, sounds, and in-shore waters with sandy bottoms. They usually keep to the ocean floor and will flatten themselves against the ground to hide from predators. Despite their venomous tail spines, stingrays are not aggressive and will flee from danger whenever possible. They feed on mollusks, crustaceans, and some types of small fish. Sharks often prey on them, even though the two are closely related. Sarah Sherman was the production editor and copyeditor for Programming ASP.NET, Second Edition.

Source code is very hard to use
By Charles
from Southern California
Comments about oreilly Programming ASP.NET, 2nd Edition:
It's great that the source code in the book is provided on the web site, but the files have no extensions, making it very hard to figure them out and requiring a lot of error-prone cutting and pasting. (Perhaps that was their whole point - force the beginner to create Visual Studio solutions and then figure out the maze of extensions: .xml, .cs, .aspx, .ascx, .html, .resx, .config, etc. But it's a real time-waster IMHO.)

A book you to read with calm!
By Eduardo Cesar Lunardelli
from Undisclosed
Good, I still do not have enough knowledge on asp.net, but for that our group of studies walked presenting on asp net with base in this book, we had a shining evolution. Thus that to arrive the moment of I to have in hand this book, also will make my commentaries. For the time being I am postando the JB.NET commentary... But it said that it is the book to read itself with calm;)
Not bad, but could be better
By Anonymous
I bought "Programming ASP.NET" after a session on the floor of my local bookstore, reviewing ASP.NET titles for a large .NET project I had taken over. The main thing that caught my eye was a discussion of deployment procedures - both xcopy and registering assemblies in the GAC. None of the other titles really looked at this subject in depth, one or two touched on it briefly. It also directly focused on the Visual Studio.NET environment, rather than compiling from the command line or from a third-party GUI. I reviewed a few of the other chapters in the book and it seemed to cover the general stuff fairly well.The book was certainly helpful in getting me up to speed with ASP.NET, which I had not used before. There are a number of typographical/code errors/inconsistencies however, which for a newbie as I was made things harder to understand than they should have been. For a £35 book, I'd expect a slightly better level of proof-reading. Also, some of the examples given are needlessly complex. One of the biggest gripes I have is that whilst there is a long chapter all about the DataGrid, there is hardly any discussion of Paging and Sorting - arguably the most important feature of a DataGrid - just some bold text entries in yet another copy of the source listing. The authors seem to have missed the fact that by far the easiest way to sort a DataGrid is to use the DataView control and its Sort property. No need to implement custom sorting, no need to wrap each DataRow in its own class derived from IComparable. There is a large amount of "page padding" - pages and pages of source code listings, often repeating a listing from a previous page, which surely would have been better off on a CD. This may have helped the errata, too, as they could have checked that each example compiled! On the whole, the book feels rushed and the padding does make you feel like you've paid more than you should have. Not a great example of an O'Reilly book.

As this article in the Guardian posits .
Interestingly, Richard Dawkins' The God Delusion has sold 500,000*** copies in the U.S. and 300,000 copies in the U.K.
When I read of the popularity of Dawkins' book, first I said: YAY! Because Dawkins' is my man. Then I said: Wait a minute. The U.S. has a population of roughly 300 million and the U.K. has roughly 60.1 million. That's one book per 600 people in the U.S. whereas in the U.K. it's one book per 200 people. One must take into account overall reading habits from both populations–one quarter of British adults don't read* in comparison to 38 percent in the U.S.** So the British will buy more books as a matter of course.
Still and all, they could be buying rubbish and they choose Dawkins. Either because they're nontheists or because they're willing to listen to what someone without their beliefs has to say. [And before anyone says that atheists need to listen to what theists have to say–I assure you, we have. We've been listening for the length of our conscious lives. Once you've listened to atheists, or really anyone with religious views utterly apposed to yours, for a couple or five decades then we'll listen to you again. Deal?]
That the U.S. is the only truly free country still worshiping a fictional being is not news, but the numbers to show it are interesting. Most countries still ruled by religion try to control their people right down to their thought processes, what they can do with their bodies and who they date. Oh, wait…
Anyway, that's the news and some thoughts from this heathen. And now here's Jim–how's the weather in the ninth circle of hell there, Jimbo?!

Hi guys,
Can you advise me where I can find statistics about the most popular photo editors? I know that Photoshop, PaintShop Pro, Corel Photo-paint are popular, but what else?
The thing is that we develop plugins for graphics software and we want our plugins to be compatible with the photo editors in demand.
thank you,
P.S. at least, tell me what software you use.

Photoimpact Pro is an excellent photo editor that includes a lot of functionality for web related graphics.
Also may want to look at Photoshop Elements.

ACDSee 6 is a charm for browsing and basic editing. More serious editing would require the add-in FotoCanvas.
Works well with fast PCs (P4 2.4 256 RAM), otherwise Ver. 5.0 is better.

I am thinking of buying a Remington 1911 R1 in the new year. Any views on the R1.
I don't have one yet but I got the new Guns & ammo todya with the new stainless.Very nice.
I bought one a year ago and after range testing it I went back to the gunshop to get another one before the price went up. They are accurate and smooth. I 'll pass them on to my kids in a few years.
I've got one and love it so far. I cherry picked it for trigger pull. It's kind of a retro 1911 with nice sights. Stainless target barrel and bushing. At $610.00 it was a far better deal than some others I've had. It also eats anything I choose to shoot through it which is nice.
I bought one over a year ago and after range testing it I returned to the gun shop to purchase another one. The owner got a kick out it but my young son will eventually enjoy owning one too.
I got one a couple of weeks ago and love it so far.
Last November I paid $676.95 including shipping / insurance / credit card fee / Illinois sales tax (ouch) / FFL transfer complete for the basic 1911 R1. It looks great, feels right in the hand, and shoots more accurately than I do.
It did fail to fully go to battery twice each of the first two times out, but polishing the feed ramp and shooting 150 rounds through it has made it very dependable.
I like it a lot, and would buy another one if I had the extra money.
Inspect the frame VIS in front of the barrel bed first.Some came out with a 45 degree cut between the front of the barrel bed and the verticle impact surface the barrel stops on.I don't know why but I know of 2 so far that came like this new.If this corner of the bridge,or bed,is actually cut and not just radiused,do not buy it,you will break the barrel's lower lugs eventually.It will look like you have the frame feedramp,the radius in the bridge to let the barrel link down in it,and then a baby unradiused feedramp.Simple field stip and the slide doesn't have to come completely off really.I'm still waiting to hear the logic behind this and whether they fix it or not.If they don't (which I doubt) the only solution is to fit a ramped barrel in it.
Acquired a Remington 1911 R1 Enhanced Thursday. Put 100 rounds thru it Friday. 50 Remington 230 gr and 50 WWB 230 gr. Flawless. Ordering 2 Chip McCormick 8 rd SS mags tomorrow. I like this gun. Clean and tight. Great trigger.
I bought a standard model 1911R1 2 weeks ago, and I'm very pleased with it thus far. It feeds and ejects, is reasonably accurate with nice 3 Dot Fixed Sights, and looks sharp. Happy Customer. It's a threat-stopper.

GENEVA, N.Y. – Junior attackman Stephen Keogh (Toronto, Ontario) scored with 43 seconds left in overtime to lift No. 2 Syracuse (5-1) to a 9-8 victory over Hobart (2-4) on Tuesday, March 23 at McCooey Field. It was Keogh's second goal of the night and it capped a dramatic game that saw the Orange overcome a 5-2 deficit to earn the win.
Because of Keogh's heroics, the Orange retained the Kraus-Simmons Trophy for the fourth straight season and the 23rd time in the 25 years it has been presented to the winner of the annual matchup.
Senior Chris Daniello (Cross River, N.Y.) and freshman JoJo Marasco (Yorktown Heights, N.Y.) paced the Orange with two goals and one assist apiece. Marasco's three points tied his personal best and his two goals were a career high.
Junior midfielder Jovan Miller (Syracuse, N.Y.) also equaled his personal best with two goals in the contest.
Despite outshooting the Statesmen, 56-24, Syracuse trailed for the majority of the game thanks to Hobart goalie Max Silberlicht. Silberlicht totaled a career-best 23 saves, including eight in the fourth quarter, to push the Orange to the brink.
Silberlicht keyed a Hobart defense that held Syracuse scoreless for 26:43 from late in the first quarter to the latter stages of the third period. During that time the Statesmen outscored the Orange, 4-0, to claim a 5-2 advantage.
Marasco finally ended the scoring drought when he found the cage unassisted with five minutes left in the third, but Hobart maintained a two-goal lead (6-4) heading into the final quarter.
But that's when the Orange offense came to life.
Syracuse dominated possession time and unleashed 23 shots to just three for the Statesmen in the final 15 minutes of regulation and the goals began to fall. Miller and Marasco both scored in the first 4:02 of the quarter to knot the game at 6-6. A goal by Chris Pederson gave the lead back to Hobart briefly before consecutive goals by Daniello put the Orange in front, 8-7, with 5:08 to play.
Syracuse attempted to drain the clock with long possessions down the stretch. But after Silberlicht stopped a shot by senior Cody Jamieson (Six Nations, Ontario), the Statesmen gained possession and called timeout with 1:15 to go. On the restart, Pedersen lost his man and tied the game with 1:04 remaining.
The Statesmen won the ensuing faceoff, but Marasco rode hard after the ball went back to Silberlicht near his own crease. Marasco continually swatted at the goaltender and eventually forced a wild pass that went out of bounds to Syracuse with 37 seconds left.
As time would down, the Orange worked the ball around to junior Jeremy Thompson (Nedrow, N.Y.). He fired from 12 yards out, but Silberlicht made the save with four seconds to go and flung the ball the length of the field to force overtime.
Jamieson and Miller both had shots at the cage in overtime, but couldn't find the game-winner. Then, with Hobart in possession, junior Joe Coulter (San Diego, Calif.) knocked the ball away from Mike O'Brien. SU rookie defenseman Brian Megill (Clark, N.J.) picked it up and Syracuse raced into the offensive zone. The Orange worked the ball around before it ended up in the stick of Daniello, who drove hard to the cage from X and dumped it inside to Keogh for the winner.
It was Keogh's third game-winning goal of the season and the Orange stormed the field to celebrate as Hobart athletic director Mike Hanna presented SU head coach John Desko with the Kraus-Simmons Trophy.
Kevin Curtin led the Statesmen with three points (2g, 1a). Pedersen also had two goals for the hosts and Tim Bigelow contributed a pair of assists.
The Orange harassed the Statesmen into 22 turnovers during the course of the game, including an 18-for-27 showing on clears. Hobart converted just two of its five clearing attempts in the fourth quarter. The extra possessions helped Syracuse get back in the contest as the visitors outscored Hobart 4-2 in the final frame.
Next up for the Orange is Villanova on Monday, March 29. The Orange hosts the Wildcats at 3 p.m. in the Carrier Dome. The game will be televised live in the Syracuse area on Time Warner Sports.
Game Notes: Syracuse has won its last four overtime games dating back to a 2008 OT loss against Virginia … The Orange is 5-0 all-time against Hobart in extra-session affairs … The victory improved Desko's record to 12-1 all-time against the Statesmen and the Orange is 32-13-1 overall in road games against Hobart … Keogh now has a goal in 25 straight games and at least one point in his last 28 contests … The Orange was 0-for-5 on extra-man opportunities in the game after converting on 11-of-14 man-up chances the previous three outings.

I've just bought a 4 bar coilover kit for my F1 pickup but after reading the installation instructions I'm totally confused about how to set the pinion angle. The book says that the axle brackets should be welded at 90 degrees (straight up and down) and the pinion angle set by adjusting the length of the 4 bars but (this is the confusing bit) if the coilovers are fixed to the chassis with bolts running front to back it's physically impossible for the angles to change or am I missing something I would have thought
that the angle of the brackets to the axle would be the way to set the angle. Any help would be appreciated
Poppin, don't feel bad about the confusion, but it will go away when you really get into your iinstallation. Some key points to start with. 1. Clearly mark your frame where the axle centerline is going to be. Hopefully, you have a rubber axle bumper bolted on and you can use the hole as a reference point. 2. Set your frame level from side to side and front to back. 3. Determine your ride height for your empty truck and determine how far it is from the bottom of the frame and the top of the axle housing. WRITE IT DOWN because you will go back to this many times. Now you are ready to start following the instructions. Your parallel bars will mount on the axle pad in the front and they must be level when the axle is in place at ride height and is set so the face of the tranny shaft and pinion input shaft are parallel with each other (same degrees from vertical) Axle must be centered under the frame rails (side to side). When this is all in place, I spot weld the axle housing to the jack stands so it does not rotate from this position and stays put. I then decide how far inboard from the backing plate I want to mount my parallel bars, which usually is directly under the center of the frame rail. I will place the axle pads on the axle and use a scribe to mark their locationswhen I've measured this about 4 times on both sides, I will place the pad on and use a level on the back side where the shock mounts to get it vertical and tac weld it in place by puting a tac on each side of the mount, check my scribe lines, recheck the vertical position and add another tac to each side and move to the other side of axle and repeat. Now you can attach the bars to the axle mount and start locating the front mount on the frame. Here it gets harder because you want the bars to be level with your ride height, level with each other and PARALLEL with each other. When you have them clamped in polace and you can no longer improve any of your measurements, then tack the front mounts in place similiar to the drill described for the axle mounts. I'm sure your instructions say all of this in so many (probably fewer) word. Now you affix your shocks to the axle pads. You want your shocks to be vertical and tangent to the axle. Ideallly, the shock should be perfectly vertical as seen from the side and from the rear(front) but can be tilted inboard slightly if you have the correct mounting configuration.
Lets go back now and revisit your instructions about setting pinion angle by adjusting the length of the parallel bars. If you do this, then the pads rotate with the axle and you are no longer vertical with your shocks and that becomes a problem. Yes, you can make some slight adjustments to correct slight errors adn you may end up spliting the differences.
Is this a triangulated 4 bar kit or does it use a panhard bar? If it's triangulated,, let me know and I will be glad to address the other two bars.
Thanks Trees,
The front mounts are bolted in the same position as the old spring mounts (they use the same holes), so, I'm lumbered as to their position. I must say that the instructions with the kit are about half the length of your reply and are somewhat vague but I can't keep looking at a bare chassis so, s**t or bust, here goes. I'll let you know how I get on.

Document Your Family's Health History
Family health history can help your child's doctor make a diagnosis if your child shows signs of a disorder. It can reveal whether your child has an increased risk for a disease; if so, the doctor might suggest screening tests. Many genetic disorders first become obvious in childhood, and knowing about a family health history of a genetic condition can help find and treat the condition early.
Most people do not think that chronic diseases such as heart disease and type 2 diabetes affect children, but children with a strong family health history of these diseases can show signs in childhood. However, having a family health history of a disease does not mean that your child will get that disease. Children with a family health history of chronic diseases can benefit from developing good lifestyle habits, such as exercising and eating healthy, right away. These habits can benefit the entire family and might help prevent or delay these conditions.
Ways to Collect Your Child's Family Health History
- Record the names of your child's close relatives from both sides of the family: parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles, nieces, and nephews. Include conditions each relative has or had and at what age the conditions were first diagnosed. For relatives who are deceased, include the cause of death and the age at death.
- Use the US Surgeon General's online tool for collecting family health histories, called "My Family Health Portrait."
- Discuss family health history concerns with your child's doctor. Gather the information before seeing the doctor, using "My Family Health Portrait." Fill out family health history forms carefully. Families considering having another child should share family health history information with the mother's doctor.
- Update your child's family health history information regularly and share new information with your child's doctor. Remember that relatives can be newly diagnosed with conditions between doctor's visits.
- The best way to learn about your family health history is to ask questions. Talk at family gatherings and record your family's health information—it could make a difference in your child's life.
Get involved!
Send a personalized e-card to family and friends encouraging them to collect their family health history.
Family health history isn't just important for your child's health—it's important for your health, too! Learn more.

The stock heater hose routing goes from the intake manifold fitting on the front, passenger side of the manifold over the heater core and back to a fitting on the radiator. I don't think an '81 used the fitting on the water pump.
You have the right location for the temp sensor. Most folks will say that the head location reads a little higher than the intake manifold fitting, but mine seems to read about the same in both locations. If you have headers it might be easier to use the intake manifold fitting.
Need Correct Coolant Hose Routing
Can someone tell me if this is correct. I have an '81 El Camino that originally came with a 305 and AC. I took the 305 out as well as the AC and put a freshly rebuilt 350 in its place. I have decided to bypass the heater also, atleast for the time being. I have just broke this engine in. It does not have more than 45 minutes run time on it. I have noticed my temp is hovering right around the 195-200 degree mark. My thermostat is new; 180 temp. the radiator is the original radiator which I believe-not sure how to tell-is a two core with a shroud. I have an RPM air gap intake manifold. I put pipe plugs in the threaded holes--one in the front, one in the back of the intake manifold--leading to the coolant passages in the intake manifold. After reading some of the other post, I don't think I should have done this. Since I am not using my heater at the moment, should I take the pipe plug out in the front of the intake manifold, and run a hose from that to the top of the water pump which is a new long style water pump?
Also, I have my temp sensor for my temp gauge screwed into the block between cylinders 1 and 3. Is this the correct place or should I relocate it to the top of the intake manifold?
Once again, thank you for all responses.

text: I think I started a thread about these rounds not too long ago. I happened to be looking at .40. I bought two boxes for my H&K P2000 and they shot reasonably well for the most part. Had one jam but at this point I'm still trying to figure out if it was the round or the gun. I'd like to think it was the round for obvious reasons but I'm not sure. In any case, I only saw one problem out of 100 rounds so I'd say they're definitely worth checking out. The price is right. If you end up getting them, I'd love to hear what you think and how they worked out for you. For me I think I'm gonna stick to brass from now on though. Cheers.

text: The Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, D.C., designed by architect Gordon Bunshaft and known affectionately as Bunshaft's Bunker, will become a giant makeshift television screen starting March 22. That's when SONG 1, a video installation by artist Doug Aitken, will first be projected onto all 360 degrees of the Hirshhorn's exterior. Approximately 11 projectors will light up the museum's exterior from dusk till midnight for the duration of the exhibit. Visitors should expect a party vibe: Aitken's video features spliced-together renditions of The Flamingos' hit "I Only Have Eyes for You," performed by the likes of Beck, LCD Soundsystem, No Age, and others. The piece is an example of the prominent role that buildings can play in the realization of contemporary art today—both inside and outside the building. Starting in 2013, the Hirshhorn will also host the so-called Bubble, a temporary outdoor pavilion designed by Diller Scofidio + Renfro, which will be inflated at least twice a year, through the donut-shaped building's courtyard. SONG 1 runs through May 13. • hirshhorn.si.edu

learning methods and materials that involve the use of mobile phones or handheld computers
'Just like the advent of computers ushered in the era of e-learning, we are now ready for an era of m-learning, or using the mobile phone as an educational tool.'Techtree.com 10th July 2012
'Online publishing solutions provider, Pressmart, has launched a mobile learning solution for schools, centred around tablets. Calling it MOCA or Mobile Learning Classroom Application … The solution … would allow schools and students to store and access books, study modules, assessments, and notices via a tablet.'MediaNama.com 5th July 2012
We can use our mobile phones to order a pizza, navigate our way to an unknown address, calculate exchange rates, play solitaire, and, just possibly, have a conversation with someone. Why not then add 'brushing up on Shakespeare' or 'learning Portuguese' to the ever-expanding list of things you can do with a handheld device? In an era where every street, station and coffee shop is filled with people tapping away at their smartphones, the concept of learning on the move, or m-learning, as it is now known, seems to make perfect sense.
m-learning can respond to the needs of an 'always-on' society by providing learners with materials and resources that they can access wherever and whenever they choose
In the term m-learning, m stands for mobile, and the same concept is also often simply referred to as mobile learning. M-learning is any kind of learning that takes place via a portable, hand-held electronic device. Though the term immediately conjures up images of smartphones, it in fact also refers to learning via other kinds of mobile devices, such as tablet computers, netbooks, and digital readers.
The key characteristic, and indeed the obvious benefit, of m-learning, is that it isn't constrained by the need to be in a particular location, such as sitting in a classroom or perched in front of a computer within a fixed space. M-learning can take place anywhere and any time, responding to the needs of an 'always-on' society by providing learners with materials and resources that they can access wherever and whenever they choose. As well as giving the learner new freedoms, it also increases the flexibility of teachers and instructors, who may create learning materials 'on the spot' in response to specific needs, or provide instant feedback and support. Learners can also work collaboratively, sharing tips and experiences with their fellow students - and all this without ever needing to be in the same physical space as a teacher or classmates.
M-learning is often viewed as a component of a learning programme, something that supports the learning process as an add-on tool, rather than being the principal learning method. From this perspective then, there's a link between m-learning and the concept of blended learning, in which learning takes place by a combination of conventional teaching methods and electronic and/or web-based resources. M-learning has been recognized as particularly beneficial in the education of young people, especially for students who may not be engaged by conventional approaches to teaching. Communication through mobile devices is now an expected function of daily life for the majority of young people, and so use of them as a learning platform can prove far more motivating than traditional coursebooks and worksheets.
Evidence suggests that m-learning is becoming an increasingly hot topic in educational circles, galvanized by various factors, including the falling prices of tablets and smartphones, the improved ease of use of touch screen and keyboard functions on these devices, and the fact that they're overtaking previous technology by conveniently functioning as a combination of the separate gadgets (e.g. laptop, phone, camera) people may have used in the past.
The concept of mobile learning goes right back to the 1970s, when companies such as Linguaphone started releasing recordings of language lessons that could be listened to at the learner's convenience. The term m-learning is a much more recent modification, motivated by mobile communications technology and modelled on expressions such as e-learning, which refers more generally to learning and teaching supported by computers and other electronic devices.
Another term which has gained currency in educational contexts during the last few years is VLE, an abbreviation which stands for Virtual Learning Environment and refers to a web-based platform used by schools for providing learning resources or other general information, and setting/submitting schoolwork, etc.

If you think you're well versed in ASP.NET, think again. This exceptional guide gives you a master class in site building with ASP.NET 3.5 and other cutting-edge Microsoft technologies. You learn how to develop rock-solid web portal applications that can withstand millions of hits every day while surviving scalability and security pressures -- not just for mass-consumer homepages, but also for dashboards that deliver powerful content aggregation for enterprises.
Written by Omar AL Zabir, co-founder and CTO of Pageflakes, Building a Web 2.0 Portal with ASP.NET 3.5 demonstrates how to develop portals similar to My Yahoo!, iGoogle, and Pageflakes using ASP.NET 3.5, ASP.NET AJAX, Windows Workflow Foundation, LINQ and .NET 3.5. Through the course of the book, AL Zabir builds an open source Ajax-enabled portal prototype (available online at www.dropthings.com), and walks you though the design and architectural challenges, advanced Ajax concepts, performance optimization techniques, and server-side scalability problems involved.
You learn how to:
Omar AL Zabir is the CTO and co-founder of Pageflakes, a Microsoft MVP, the author of a popular .NET blog (http://msmvps.com/omar), and a frequent contributor to Code Project. In 2006, Page flakes out-ranked iGoogle, Live.com, Netvibes, and Protopage in a review conducted by Seattle-based SEOmoz.org.
View Omar AL Zabir's full profile page.
The animal on the cover of Building a Web 2.0 Portal with ASP.NET 3.5 is a giant green sea anemone (Anthopleura xanthogrammica). These anemones are found on rocks in tidal pools, rocky outcroppings, and concrete pilings from Alaska to Panama in intertidal and subtidal zones. The giant green sea anemone varies in size but can reach heights of 30 cm, have a 17 cm base, and a crown or head of 25 cm. The giant green sea anemone gets its color from green pigment in its epidermis, so the more sunlight it is exposed to, the more green it becomes. This anemone is a solitary and mostly stationary invertebrate from the Cnidaria phylum, which also includes jellyfish. Like a jellyfish, the giant green sea anemone stings its prey with poison tentacles and then draws the food to its mouth. These anemones enjoy a carnivorous diet of mussels, sea urchins, and small fish, and have been known to eat a giant crab in 15 minutes. Clownfish are immune to its stings and often have symbiotic relationships with anemones. Scientists are experimenting with the poison as a cardiotonic to help ailing human hearts. The enemies of the giant green anemone include starfish, snails, and sea slugs.However, development in coastal areas, pollution, human foot traffic, and harvestingfor home aquariums also pose significant threats.

Tips & Tricks
By Rodrigo Moreira
This book explains the techniques behind the DropThings portal (www.dropthings.com), showing some source-code (available at www.codeplex.com) and giving a couple of tips and tricks of web 2.0 programming. The book is very interesting but it's for those developers who already know the technologies it covers (ASP.NET, C#, LINQ, WF and ASP.NET AJAX) and want to know "the best way to do it" or became aware of commom problems that big web 2.0 portals generally has.Below is the main topics of each chapter:Chapter 1 - Conceptual meanings of Web and ASP.NET.Chapter 2 - How can you design your own Widgets Framework (Based on his ideas that lead him to develop his own framework) and things that you need to concern when you develop a big portal.Chapter 3 - Tips and Tricks of developing rich client controls Chapter 4 - How can you add LINQ and Workflow Foundation to your Data and Business Layers.Chapter 5 - Developing Widgets itselfChapter 6, 7, 8 and 9 - Reflections over performance (at Client, Server and "client-server" interaction)Chapter 10 - Solving Deployment and "Go-live" problems.Bear in mind this book don't teach you those technologies, it only leads you to use them in a better way based on the author's experience (Author is the PageFlake's co-Founder and CTO, so he really knows what he's talking about).In conclusion, if you want to learn how you use those technologies (Asp.net Ajax, Workflow Foundation..), I recommend you to try other books. Otherwise, if you want to know more about how to create a scalable web 2.0 site, tips & tricks and the best practices of those techs at web, this book will hit at the bullseye.

My luckiest find
By Anonymous
Almost without exceptions I buy my technical books based in information in magazines, other books and of course searching with Google. Last two years I applied all these methods trying to find a book like Omar's - alas without success. They all were too narrow, too elementary or too fractured. So, I gave up hoping that there will be a book about design and implementation of a large Web 2.0 site - and started our own.Last wee, visiting a book store with intent to buy a specific book, I spotted Building a Web 2.0 Portal with ASP.NET 3.5 The title is well chosen, but what really got me excited in the next 10 seconds was a glance through the Index.Now, few days after, I am convinced that Omar wrote the most exciting book I read in last 10 years (I would exclude some books written by Feynman or Steven Hawking as well as few books from the fiction category.As my own design uses the same building block, it is still not too late to apply many of the great ideas andtechniques presented in this book. In that sense I feel a lot better off than the gentlemen who wrote the blog at http://geekswithblogs.net/WynApseTechnicalMusings/archive/2007/01/12/103457.aspxIn summary: this book is a must for anyone interested in building complex distributed web applications.
Very unique book full with goodness
By Jonathan Robin
This was an awesome read!If you are an intermediate developer, this book has everything you need to know to grow and become an advanced developer and eventually an architect. Not only that, you will be able to learn how to build and maintain your own production web solutions all by yourself.This book has so far the best collection of performance and scalability optimization techniques. Majority of the techniques are very unique, not found in any other book or website.Although I partially agree with Bart on his comment about texts already available in blog and codeproject, but I disagree on some points:- It's perfectly normal to start a topic on a blog and then eventually enrich it from user feedback and write an article or book out of it. Books or articles generally have polished, much elaborated description and lessions from past mistakes and user feedback. The author has done the same. When I see his blog posts or articles, they are somewhat shortcuts, not in detail, full of holes. But the book surely shows sign of experience on each topic. - The 10 ASP.NET article he mentioned came out after the book was published and actually has two unique techniques that's missing in both blog and book. The article is basically an aggregation of blog posts author made earlier. - Despite the information already available in his articles and blog, the first 5 chapters, especially the whole Chapter 7 is surely unique in the book. The remaining chapters are also well elaborated and shows authors experience from his research and blog post. All of them surely makes the book worth the money.

Pretty Good book, but be careful before you buy...
By Bart Czernicki
This book is a great resource for tips/tricks from one of the architect/technology heads at pageflakes.com.The book is written in an easy to understand flow. It is definitely aimed at a much more seasoned/sr. level programmer. The book's flow seems like an experience guide from implementing pageflakes.com architecture and the pains/solutions dealing with the many gotchas.A lot of the content has been already posted on sites such as codeproject.com (actually I would say the articles in the public domain are taken VERBATIM from the book; or vice versa). The chapters about: dropthings.com, async threads and ASP.NET performance can all be found on the site. For example:http://www.codeproject.com/KB/aspnet/10ASPNetPerformance.aspxMy other problem with the book is that the book only focuses on the web portal for only a few chapters and the rest is geared towards optimization and ASP.NET/servers etc. The title of the book should be changed to a resource guide or a tips/tricks book (somehow I think this title looks better and could sell more copies though) :)The performance suggestions are top notch. I wish there were more examples of the net performance gain to focus on the core performance rather than trying to figure out what can give you the most bang for your buck.Overall very good book, but beware ur not getting 280 pages of web 2.0 portal goodness.
Buy this book now.
If you are a Microsoft web developer you need to purchase this book.It is quite a short book weighing in at only 280 pages however the amount of very useful information contained within those short number of pages is staggering.This book is taken from the perspective of building your own fully Ajax enabled web portal and is based on a production web site Pageflakes (http://www.pageflakes.com) . Omar guides you through design and implementation decisions that you need to think of when constructing your web site, scalability decisions, performance decisions, security considerations etc.On the code side of things the sample site that this book is based on uses all the up to date technologies that Microsoft has released including Ajax and Windows Workflow. Omar explains best practices on building a website, N-Tier architectures, using interfaces for pluggable components to your site etc.This is the best book on .Net programming I have read in a while and there is a lot in it from both the architects and the developers points of view.
Excellent Book

Congratulation !!It's a brilliant Book about ASP.NET Technology.Regards,Samiha Esha.

Hi guys,
Just wondering how the Australian Fett's floating around the board got their hands on an ee-3 blaster? I only ask as I'm in NSW, and the replica weapons laws are pretty strict and I don't really have the skills to build from scratch unfortunately.
I got my hands on one of the Hasbro toy guns as a last resort, but would obviously prefer something a bit more accurate if possible


text: I just wanted to know if anyone has this lower receiver or has seen any reviews about it. I'm looking for pros and cons for the composite vs Aluminum. I know the complete lower from New Frontier is $99 and I've seen their stress tests but I haven't found many reviews. Thanks for your help.

Green Bay Falls at Idaho to End Long Road Trip
By: Andrew Gavin (@GBGavin)
MOSCOW, Idaho (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - Playing its fourth game out West in five days, Green Bay (2-3) saw big man Alec Brown (Winona, Minn.) pick up his second foul less than four minutes in, and after an early 10-0 run by host Idaho (1-2) followed, the Phoenix never recovered in a 72-62 defeat in non-conference men's basketball action at Memorial Gym in Moscow, Idaho.
Brown knocked down a three-pointer to give the Phoenix an early 7-6 lead at the 17:15 mark of the first half, but on the ensuing possession was hit with his second foul on a Kyle Barone three-point play and went to the bench. He played just six first-half minutes and had five points.
Sophomore Keifer Sykes (Chicago, Ill.) scored his sixth point on a jumper to knot the score at 11 five minutes in, but the host Vandals scored the next 10 points to pull in front 21-11. Senior Brennan Cougill's (Sioux City, Iowa) three-pointer, layup and three-point play cut the margin to single digits on three occasions in the first half before Idaho led 39-29 at the half. Cougill (10) and Sykes (8) had 18 of the team's points in the period.
Green Bay came into the game leading the Horizon League with a rebounding margin of plus-11.2, but Idaho had an 18-8 edge on the glass and held a 24-10 margin in the paint in the opening half.
Buckets from Cougill and Sykes opened the second half for Green Bay cut the deficit from 13 to nine, but the Vandals scored the next seven points. Idaho led by 19 with 6:37 to play.
Junior Kam Cerroni (Sussex, WIs.) made two of his season-high three three-pointers over the course of a 15-4 Phoenix run to cut the deficit to eight with 1:18 to play and Idaho missed the front end of a one-and-one. However, Green Bay missed a trio of three-pointers on the next possession and could get no closer.
Cougill finished with 19 points for the second-straight season against Idaho and added six rebounds and four assists. Sykes added 13 points and four assists while Brown and Cerroni contributed nine points apiece.
Green Bay returns home for its second game of the season at the Resch Center on Saturday when the Phoenix hosts North Dakota State at 7 p.m. The Bison are currently 4-1 on the season, including an 83-80 overtime win over Youngstown State on Monday and a 14-point win at Duquesne on Tuesday.

The Cedar Key Lighthouse on Seahorse Key is situated on the top of a steep hill looking out over the Gulf of Mexico with a view that is nothing short of breathtaking. The lighthouse is only open to the public three days during the year: the Saturday following July 4 and the two days of the annual Cedar Key Seafood Festival. The weather this past Saturday was beautiful; the short boat trip to the island quite pleasant.
"...And bring a flannel shirt." Those were the words of Anne's son earlier this week.
The Cedar Lions Club is inviting all residents to participate in October Vision Awareness Month by bringing in used eyeglasses for recycling to the Lions Club Sweet Corn and Soda booth at the Oct. 15 and 16 Seafood Festival. Proceeds from sale of corn and sodas will be in support of our vision program which helps those in need obtain eye exams and glasses, while assisting with eye surgeries for qualified applicants.
The collective hearts of many men and a couple women in Cedar Key went pitter-pat on Friday when they realized that the Marina parking lot behind the fire house was full of about 50 pristine, restored vintage cars.

Chamber of Commerce Meeting
Cedar Key Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors meets monthly on the third Thursday at 8:30 a.m. All Chamber members and those interested in becoming members are encouraged to attend. Please call 543-5600 to confirm the location.
The Cedar Keyhole announces Robert Goodlett, as the artist of the month for October.

What we need now are a few honest hockey players
'While this team needs a makeover, a total makeover isn't necessary. They need three or four honest hockey players who might serve as a jury of their peers, making them accountable in the dressing room for half-hearted play that kills playoff hopes.

'On the scouting staff, which was replaced by video in a cost-cutting measure: "You can scout on television and video and still watch players? Come on. That is absolutely the joke of the league. When all the scouts were here–Larry Carriere, Don Luce, Terry Martin, Jim Benning, all those guys–they're the ones who built this franchise that took them to the Presidents' [Trophy]. They were the ones who went to Darcy and said, 'This is who you should draft.' They're all gone."'
Robert Unafraid of Criticizing Sabres
'"If you look at the organizations that have been successful, you don't see owners getting involved in hockey decisions. You hire people to do a job you're not capable of doing. Until proven wrong, you let them do their jobs. If they can't, you get rid of them."'

Sabres retaining Regier, Ruff
'There was speculation about the job security of both individuals after the Sabres missed the playoffs for the second straight year and fifth time in seven seasons.'
Sabres bring back Ruff, Regier
'Ruff guided the Sabres to a 41-32-9 record this past season, as the club finished in 10th place in the Eastern Conference, missing the playoffs for the second consecutive season.'
Sabres elect to retain coach Ruff, GM Regier
'"We wanted to have a chance to digest the season and gauge their desire and their–how would I say it?–willingness to approach this freshly and with some innovation," Quinn said. "And we've taken our process forward enough to know that these are the two guys we want to lead our hockey department next year."'
Ruff and Regier back for 09/10
'Ownership is very excited to have these two individuals return to help lead the organization back to the playoffs next season.'
Butler: From rookie to leader
'"I think our fan base in Buffalo knows what he has done for the organization this year," Dineen said. "Frankly, I wasn't surprised at all that he was called up for three games and was there for the rest of the season. He has a maturity about him that has NHL written all over him, so it's great and a real benefit to have him back in the lineup for the playoffs."'

A hotshot political strategist fights to protect his clients while experiencing an unexpected crisis of conscience in this sharp-edged political comedy starring Rob Lowe. Paul Turner (Lowe) has a gift for spin. When the media catches wind of a Kentucky governor's extramarital affairs, Turner has a plan to save the day. Likewise, when a California senator is targeted for blackmail, Turner works overtime to sweep the scandal under the rug. Meanwhile, an ambitious doctor (Carrie-Anne Moss) reveals her intention to run for governor, prompting the seasoned strategist to warn her of the difficult road ahead. Later, just when it seems that Turner can't stoop any lower for the sake of his troublesome clients, he learns that sometimes fighting fair is the only way to come out on top. Eric McCormack, Julie Bowen, and David Harbour co-star. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Just wanting to find out if anybody has any tips for using this? It seems to work really well, but the only problem I have with using it is tht it seems very "liquidy". Its not that it runs or anything, yet when I apply it it seems to want to shrink up into itself.
I'm not sure if this is because of the smooth chrome painted surface I'm applying it to or if I'm not using it correctly.

The Gophers (2-0) were never threatened. Hollins hit two 3-pointers and swished all four of his shots in that defining opening stretch, and the Gophers took a 15-2 lead. Only once in the first half did Toledo score four straight points.
"We've got the pieces. We've got people that are running. We're in great shape. We've got a lot of depth so people can come in and out to run the floor like we want to," Hollins said.
Joe Coleman finished with 15 points and six rebounds despite eight turnovers, and Oto Osenieks pitched in eight points off the bench for the Gophers, who played so sharply and confidently in the first half their occasional sloppiness down the stretch didn't matter. They shot nearly 50 percent, including 16 for 28 in the first half as they built a 48-22 advantage.
"We just try to get as many deflections and steals as we can and hopefully get out on the break," Coleman said.
Rian Pearson led the Rockets (0-2) with 18 points, and freshman center Nathan Boothe added 13 points and seven rebounds. Toledo coach Tod Kowalczy said he thought his team "played scared" of the Gophers at the beginning.
"We gave them too much respect," he said. "The second half is something we can build on."
The Gophers were called for 16 fouls after halftime and lost some energy while the Rockets picked their game up after falling behind 64-32. Pearson started to find some space to get to the basket, and the Rockets took advantage of some too-casual passes by Minnesota.
But the Gophers were too good on defense, with Coleman and Hollins getting their arms in the passing lanes on the wings and Williams, Elliott Eliason and Trevor Mbakwe overwhelming the smaller Rockets underneath. Mbakwe played only 14 minutes, being gradually brought back in his recovery from reconstructive right knee surgery, but he had six points, seven rebounds, and two blocks.
Minnesota held a 51-27 rebounding edge.
"I'm not really worried about the offensive end, man. I'm doing my best to play with energy and rebound the ball and block some shots," Mbakwe said.
Toledo went just 3 for 19 from 3-point range. The Rockets were second in the Mid-American Conference in 3-point shooting last season and made nearly 44 percent from behind the arc over the last 12 games. Minnesota held American to 36 points on 9-for-38 shooting (23.7 percent) in the opener last week. Toledo finished at 31.1 percent from the field.
"That tells me our guys are buying in. If they keep ... trusting in one another, believing in what we're teaching them, then it's real," coach Tubby Smith said.
Minnesota is 43-1 in nonconference games at home in six seasons under Smith, losing only to Virginia in the ACC/Big Ten Challenge two years ago. The Gophers raised their record to 21-2 against MAC teams, last losing to Ball State in 1988.
The last time these teams played was 1989, an 85-70 win by Minnesota at Toledo. The Rockets beat the Gophers 83-75 here in 1987, early in Clem Haskins' second season as coach at Minnesota.
After going from 4-28 in 2010-11 to 19-17 in 2011-12, the second-biggest turnaround in the nation, the Rockets, with all but one letter-winner back, were picked by media covering the conference to win the MAC's West Division. The Rockets haven't made the NCAA tournament since 1980.
The Rockets lost their opener at Loyola Chicago and play again on the road Wednesday at Northern Iowa. Pearson, the only player who ranked in the MAC's top 10 in points, rebounds and steals in 2011-12, finished 7 for 17 from the field but 3 for 8 from the foul line. Julius Brown, the MAC Freshman of the Year last season, had nine points on 3 for 13 shooting, plus seven assists and seven turnovers.
Toledo is 27-44 all-time against the Big Ten. The last win by the Rockets was on Dec. 30, 2002, an 81-76 decision over Michigan State.

Drownings lead to plea for extreme caution on NH rivers

The third drowning victim was a Massachusetts resident who died while swimming in Country Pond in Newton.
Daron Graham, 20, had been missing since Saturday afternoon.
On Sunday, an 18-year-old resident of Boston's Mattapan section died in a Massachusetts hospital after being pulled from Country Pond in Newton, near the town beach.
Initial reports were that the Newton drowning victim was from Manchester.
The New Hampshire Marine Patrol issued a warning Sunday asking people to exercise extreme caution on rivers. Anyone paddling a kayak or canoe should wear a life jacket or other personal flotation device; life jackets also should be worn when tubing, according to the Marine Patrol.
Rainfall during the first weeks of the summer vacation season has been dramatically higher than normal, according to meteorologist John Cannon of the National Weather Service.
A Concord woman was rescued from the Winnipesaukee River on Saturday after she got in trouble tubing along the river, authorities said. On Thursday afternoon, five people were involved in a tube-rafting incident at Livermore Falls on the Pemigewasset River and had to be rescued.
"Livermore Falls is always dangerous, but particularly so lately," Halm said. "It's not a place where even expert kayakers are safe."
In Lebanon, crews continued to work on repairing flash flood damage caused by the severe rain event that hit the city last Monday and Tuesday. Damage is expected to exceed $2 million.

text: Statewide coalition calls for investment in Massachusetts communities, economy BOSTON - January 15, 2013— Investment in local communities and the state's economy is needed to ensure that all of our state's residents share in the ongoing economic recovery and to build stronger communities in the future. Massachusetts residents and their communities would benefit from $2 billion in new revenue to improve schools, repair infrastructure and expand economic development with the passage of a revenue proposal announced today. "Times are tough, but it's time for us to be honest about the investments we need to ensure our collective economic security," stated Scott Minter, a carpenter from Arlington. "Investments in things like education, workforce training, roads and bridges, transit systems and public safety all have a direct impact on job creation and economic growth in our cities and towns." The Campaign for Our Communities, a broad array of organizations from every corner of the Commonwealth, supports broad based tax increases to ensure that our state is a great place to live, work and raise a family. The Campaign believes that revenue reforms should hold down increases on middle-income families and seniors. The Campaign has come together around the belief that the best way to build a strong economy for future generations is by having a well-educated workforce, well-maintained roads, good public transit systems and safe neighborhoods. "Massachusetts communities have been hit hard by the economic recession," said Fall River Mayor Will Flanagan. "As a result, our local businesses and vital services have suffered. It's time for us to reinvest in ourselves. We have an obligation to every family in the Commonwealth to be sure that the economic recovery is felt by everyone." "I am worried about the steady decline of health care, education, public safety and countless other vital public services," said Vivian Moulden, a retired health care worker from Springfield. "We need to make investments today to build stronger communities in the years to come." The Campaign for Our Communities includes over 120 statewide organizations, representing thousands of Massachusetts citizens. "I have seen the direct impact that high quality enrichment programs have on our children and their dreams for the future," declared Jackie Lawrence, a teacher from Somerville. "To help all of our kids succeed, the state needs to invest in the schools and support services that families need to create a better path forward for themselves and their kids." To help all of our kids succeed, the state needs to invest in the schools and support services that families need to create a better path forward for themselves and their kids." --Jackie Lawrence, Somerville. "Lack of state revenue is constantly driving up the cost of attending a community college, making it more and more unaffordable. There is a real need for economic growth in Southeastern Massachusetts, and an educated workforce lays the foundation for economic success. We need to raise revenue in order to achieve this," said Sapphire Castillo, a Bristol Community College student from New Bedford.
