Netherlands Civil Registration- Vital Records
Civil registers (Registers van de Burgelijke Stand)are the vital records made by the government. Records of births, marriages, and deaths are commonly referred to as "vital records" because they refer to critical events in a person's life. Dutch civil registration records are an excellent source for accurate information on names; dates; and places of births, marriages, deaths, and divorces.
Civil registration is crucial for research in the Netherlands. Civil authorities began registering births, marriages, and deaths on 1 March 1811 (earlier for some southern areas). After this date all individuals who lived in the Netherlands are recorded. Because they cover the entire population, are indexed (one year and 10 year indexes), and are easily accessible, civil registration records are the most important source for genealogical research in the Netherlands.
For birth, marriage, and death records before 1811, see the "Church Records," "Public Records," and "Taxation" sections.

General Historical Background
The earliest vital records in the Netherlands were made by the churches. Civil authorities began recording marriages of nonconformists in 1575. France annexed the country between 1795 and 1811 and made civil officers responsible for keeping vital records. Civil registration was accomplished by requiring the people to report all births, marriages, and deaths to a civil registration office [Burgerlijke Stand], located in the municipality [gemeente]. After the Kingdom of the Netherlands became a country in 1814, the government continued the civil registration system.
Birth, marriage, and death registers are made in duplicate. One copy stays in the municipal hall [gemeentehuis], and the other copy is sent at the end of each year to the clerk of the district court. The clerk creates a yearly index and at the end of each decade creates a 10-year index. The indexes and the duplicate copy eventually end up in the state archives.
Regional Differences in Record Keeping
Fryslân or Friesland. The Civil Registration records in Friesland are kept on the regional level. See the "Jurisdictions" section.
Limburg. Parts of the province of Limburg were annexed by France at different times, namely in 1795, 1798, and 1801.
Zeeuws–Vlaanderen. The area of Zeeuws–Vlaanderen, in the province of Zeeland, was annexed by France in 1795.
Because of these annexations, records for these areas begin earlier than the rest of the country.
Information Recorded in Civil Registers
The most important civil records for genealogical research are birth, marriage, and death registers and marriage supplements. Divorce records were originally recorded in the back of the marriage registers.
Each birth, marriage, and death entry includes witnesses' names, ages, occupations, residences, and relationships to the principal party. Large cities such as Amsterdam and Rotterdam have more than one book for a given time period. Sometimes even-numbered entries are kept in one register and odd-numbered ones are in another.
Civil registration records were often written in French until 1814. After this date the Dutch language was used exclusively. Annual indexes are available, and beginning with the decade from 1813 to 1822, decennial (10-year) indexes were made. Each municipality (a town or group of towns) was its own civil registration district and included villages belonging to that municipality.
Births [Geboorten]
Birth records usually give the child's name; sex; date, time, and place of birth; and parents' names, including the mother's maiden surname. The occupations and ages of the parents are also given.
Births were usually registered within two or three days of the child's birth, usually by the father but sometimes by a relative or friend, especially if the father was absent. Children are never labeled as 'illegitemate', but the mother is noted as being 'unmarried'. If the father and mother of the child later marry it will be mentioned in the margin of the birth certificate as well and that the child is 'recognized' as theirs. The child's last name will now have been changed to the father's last name as well, so the child is born with the mother's last name, but later will go on in life with the father's last name. Other corrections to a birth record may have been added as a marginal note.
Children whose records show they died very young were not necessarily stillborn [levenloos or doodgeboren] even if it states that they are, but probably died shortly after birth. Legally, information about children who were born "without life" was not to be reported to the civil registrar. Children who died at birth are only recorded in the death records. They are either found under the last name of the father (or in case of an illegitimate child, the last name of the mother) or under the letter L in the index. L stands for Levenloos - lifeless.
Civil register births usually have yearly indexes in addition to the 10-year indexes. (For more specific index information see "Indexes to Civil Registration Records" below).
Marriages [Huwelijken]
Marriages during the 19th century were usually recorded where the bride resided. After 1795 a civil marriage ceremony was required by the Dutch government. This requirement continued when the country was under French rule and is still in force today. You may want to search the following web-site http://www.genlias.nl where you may find most of the marriages in the Netherlands, but not all of them yet. You can also select the 'English' button to see the extracted records in English.
If you believe a marriage took place but cannot find a record of the marriage, search records of intent to marry.
Records of Intention to Marry. You may find records that show a couple's "intent to marry" in addition to or instead of the records of the actual marriage. Various records have been created that show a couple's intent to marry.
- Marriage Intentions [Huwelijksaangiften] were made a few days before the first marriage proclamation. The couple were required to announce their intention to marry in the residence of both bride and groom. This allowed other community members the opportunity to raise any objections to the marriage. The intentions give the couple's names, ages, marital statuses before the marriage, occupations, and residences. From 1811 to 1879 the records were combined with the marriage proclamations in one register. After 1879 they were placed in separate registers. They were not prepared in duplicate and are not indexed. Marriage intentions were discontinued in 1935.
- Marriage Proclamations [Huwelijksafkondigingen], also called marriage banns, were published for two weeks in a row. They provide the couple's names, ages, marital statuses before the marriage, occupations, and residences. They also give the names of the parents and their occupations, residences, and marital statuses. Like the marriage intentions, the proclamations were not prepared in duplicate and are not indexed. They were kept in the same register as the intentions until 1879 and were discontinued in 1935.
- Marriage Consents [Huwelijkstoestemmingen]. Parents were normally present at the wedding and stated that they gave their consent for the couple to marry. If parents were absent, their written permission would be included with the marriage supplements. Beginning in 1913, separate registers were used to record the parents' permission for the bride and groom to marry.
- Marriage Supplements [Huwelijksbijlagen] were documents filed by the bride and groom in support of their application to be married. The documents formed a packet that had the same number as the marriage entry. The packets contained extracts of birth or baptism records of the bride and groom; death certificates of their parents if they were not living; and, until about 1850, death certificates of grandparents if both parents were dead. When no baptism or birth record exists, a notarized certificate of acquaintance [akte van bekendheid] is included. The certificate was signed by witnesses (usually relatives) who certified that they personally knew the bride or groom. A certificate from the National Militia (up to about 1860) stating that the groom had fulfilled his military duty is also included. This certificate usually gives his physical description, including height; color of hair, eyes, and eyebrows; and description of nose, chin, and other distinguishing features. Death certificates of any former spouse are also included. Finally, marriage consents are included.
Marriage Registers [Huwelijken]. Civil officials recorded the marriages they performed in registers, usually preprinted forms bound in a book and kept in the civil office. In the Netherlands, marriages had to be performed by civil officials. Marriage registers give the date of the marriage and the names of the bride and groom. They also indicate whether they were single or widowed before the marriage; give their ages, birthplaces, occupations, and residences; and list parents' names, residences, and occupations, if living. Note the marriage entry number [aktenummer]; you will need this to locate the marriage supplements.
Divorce Records [Echtscheidingen]
Divorce cases are handled by the district courts. A record of the divorce will be recorded at the back of the marriage register of the municipality where the couple lived at the time of their divorce. For large cities in later years they will be in separate registers. There is sometimes a note in the margin of the original marriage record. Divorces before the 20th century were uncommon.
Deaths [Overlijdens]
Death records are especially helpful because they may provide important information on a person's birth, spouse, and parents. Civil death records often exist for individuals whom there are no birth or marriage records for. Deaths were usually registered within a day or two of the death in the municipality where the person died.
The records give the deceased person's name, date and place of death, age, birthplace, occupation, spouse's name, and parents' names. Married women are recorded under their maiden surname. If the spouse and parents are living, their occupation and residence will be given; otherwise it will name the place of their death. The informant's name (often a relative) is also given. Information about parents, the birth date and birthplace of the deceased, and other information in a death record may be inaccurate since the person who gave the information may not have had complete information.
Children who died before the declaration of birth was made are recorded as stillborn and are found only in the death records.
Those people who were born without a fixed surname are probably recorded under a different name in the death records. See the "Names, Personal" section for more information.
The Central Bureau for Genealogy at http://www.cbg.nl/ has records of everyone who has died since 1940. In the right hand top corner you will find an English flag and the word 'English'to take you to the English version of this web-site. See the discussion about 'persoonskaarten' (person cards) and lists in the "Population" section.
Locating Civil Registration Records
Civil registration records were kept at the local civil registration office [Burgerlijke Stand] in each municipality. Therefore, you must determine the municipality where your ancestor lived before you can find the records. For many places the municipality and town are the same. You may need to use gazetteers and other geographic reference aides to identify the place your ancestor lived and the civil registration office that served it. For additional help, see the "Gazetteers" section.
Some large cities such as Amsterdam, Rotterdam, and The Hague had more than one sequence of books for the registering process. For example, you may find even-numbered entries in one book and odd-numbered entries in another book.
Birth registers are open to the public and are available in the state archives after 100 years, marriage registers and marriage supplements after 75 years, and death registers after 50 years.
Indexes to Civil Registration Records
Births, marriages, and deaths were written in the civil registration records as they occurred and thus are arranged chronologically. Yearly indexes and 10-year indexes to the records can help you find your ancestor more easily.
Indexes are usually bound with each year's register. Ten-year indexes were kept in a separate register. You will sometimes find the 10-year indexes for several towns in the same district bound together in the same volume. A 10-year index is especially useful when you are not certain of the year of an event. There are 10-year indexes for each decade, commencing in 1813 and continuing until 1932. An 8-year index exists for 1933 to 1940, followed by 10-year indexes again for 1941 to 1950, and so on.
Yearly indexes and 10-year indexes have several characteristics in common. The clerk usually indexed births, marriages, and deaths separately. The indexes are alphabetical by surname, although those for the Groningen province are also arranged by given name up to 1842 because of the existence of patronymics. The indexes list the name, document number, and date of the civil register entry. In marriage indexes the groom's name is usually in alphabetical order, with the bride's maiden surname listed after the groom. Later marriage indexes are by bride's surname and groom's surname. In some indexes only the first letter of the surname is in alphabetical order.
Children who died before their births were registered will be indexed either under their father's name, under the letter "D" for stillborn child [doodgeboren kind], or under the letter "L" for stillborn child [levenloos kind].
Marriage intentions, proclamations, and supplements are not indexed.
National Index. The state archives of the Netherlands are preparing a national online index of all civil registration records open to the public. Currently, entries from the provinces of Drenthe, Flevoland, Friesland, Noord-Brabant, and Utrecht have been added to the database. The web site is available in either Dutch or English.
Records at the Family History Library
The Family History Library has microfilmed the civil registration records of all municipalities throughout the Netherlands, normally for births to 1902, for marriages to 1922, and for deaths to 1932. Some death records are available until 1940.
The Family History Library has records from all municipalities. However, if a record has been destroyed, was never kept, was not available in the archive at the time of microfilming, was not microfilmed, or is restricted from public access by the laws of the country, the Family History Library does not have a copy. You may use the records at the library for your family research, but the library does not issue certificates for living or deceased individuals.
The specific holdings of the Family History Library are listed in the Family History Library Catalog. To find civil registration records in the Family History Library, look in the Place search of the library's catalog under:
The library's collection continues to grow as new records are microfilmed and added to the collection from numerous sources. Do not give up if records are not available yet. The Family History Library Catalog is updated regularly. Check it periodically for the records you need.
Locating Records Not at the Family History Library
Birth, marriage, divorce, and death records may be found by contacting or visiting local civil registration offices or archives in the Netherlands. To protect the rights of privacy of living persons, most modern records have restrictions on their use and access.
The Netherlands has no single repository of civil registration records. They are available by writing to the municipal secretary. You do not need to write in Dutch. Your request may be forwarded if the records have been sent to the district court or state archives.
Search Strategies
Effective use of civil registers includes the following strategies, in addition to the general strategies:
- Search for the ancestor you selected in step two. When you find his or her birth record, search for the birth records of the person's brothers and sisters.
- Search for the death records of his or her parents, which records will tell you where the mother came from and where the marriage probably took place.
- Search for marriage records of all the children. Marriage records will tell you if the parents were deceased at the time and where and when they died.
- If you cannot find the person you want in the regular marriage records, search the marriage intentions and publications.
- Search for the marriage record of the parents. The marriage record will give you birth dates, birthplaces, and parents' names.
- Locate the marriage supplements for the parents' marriage. The supplements will take you back to the parish register period, giving you dates and places of births or baptisms.
- Repeat the process for both the father and the mother.
- Search the death registers for all family members. These are indexed and will also take you back to the parish register period, giving you ages and places of birth.
- Search the civil registers completely before you begin searching the parish registers.

CLASP Joins Clay Pell in Celebrating 40 Year of Pell Grants and Honoring His Grandfather's Legacy
Jul 03, 2012
CLASP recently joined advocates around the country to celebrate the Pell Grant's 40th anniversary and to highlight the importance of the program for low- and modest-income students wanting to earn a postsecondary credential. Clay Pell, grandson of Senator Claiborne Pell, has been an important partner in celebrating the Pell Grant program and in the movement to ensure all needy students have access to this vital student financial assistance. Clay's op-ed, posted on July 3, is an eloquent personal reminder of his grandfather's legacy and all Pell Grants do for students and the country.
"When I was a boy, my grandfather would take me on runs."Shuffles," he called them - 1.1 miles from the house and back. People would often stop us to thank him for helping them go to college.
By the time that I headed to college, Parkinson's disease had long since slowed Grandpa's gait. But he lovingly invested in my education - both financially and emotionally - every step of the way.
My grandfather was Sen. Claiborne Pell, who 40 years ago overcame opposition in Congress to establish a grant enabling every American "with the moxie and the drive" to get access to a college education. Since 1972, Pell Grants have let 60 million students pursue higher education, including much of America's current college-educated workforce and 9.8 million current students.
All my life, people have approached me to say how much their Pell Grants meant to them. It's not just that the money made their educations possible, they say, but that they feel proud of, and grateful to, a country that invested in them.
When the U.S. Coast Guard assigned me to Washington in 2009, I was naturally drawn to the debate over the Pell Grants. While here, it's been interesting - and somewhat sad - to hear people say that we can no longer afford this program. Some think that higher education does not need to be accessible to all. Others suggest that the Pell Grants should be less ambitious, focusing not on those with the greatest need but rather those who fit a preconceived view of 'the best investment.'"

Interesting. Cant wait
come on dual core and 64GB!!!!
Sounds good to me! I'm not really sure how great of a decision the "exclusivity deal" was with AT&T but it definitely put the other cellular providers in the rearview for awhile. Now that everyone in "the game" will have the iPhone, this should hopefully speed up iPhone enhancements and that is good for EVERYONE
Sprint being Sprint puts Sprint at a competitive disadvantage. As for the exclusivity deal; it was a very smart move for Apple to do that because it pretty much guaranteed them a good amount of exposure and a limited area of competition because the carrier that signed the deal didn't want to cannibalize sales of any of their smartphones in lieu of another.
Now that the iphone had established itself, Apple was smart to branch off and go to the other carriers in a kind of "now do you believe in us?" sort of way.
Apple is in a position to have an "iphone in every hand" success story if they keep doing things right. I just hope Steve Jobs' health keeps up and he can be around for a while to keep things running smoothly at Apple. Oh and I hope they stop fighting so much with us jailbreakers cause there are SO many things I've done to my iphone that I wouldn't have been able to if it weren't for the iphone dev team, george hotz, etc. and for that, I thank you.
Yeah that's the dilemma I'm kinda facing with my and my wife's 3GS phones. Do we get refurb'd iP4's on the cheap now and wait for 2012's version with hopefully a larger screen to come out? Or do we wait a bit longer now and get the 4S/5 when it comes out (which at least should have the better processor and larger memory). If the former, then it may end up being like 2013 or something before we upgraded from the iP4. If the latter, then we'll end up being at least a year or two behind everyone else getting the larger screen (if 2012's version does have that).
We don't change phones every 6 months or a year, so yeah that's what we're facing.
Lets display an outdated picture of an old iPhone and fail to proof-read an article once again before posting it!! Apparently rushing the article is more important that the quality these days???
Just throw up a picture of an old iphone with a poor photoshop job and fail to proof-read the article before posting...... seems like a great idea. Apparently it's more important to rush the article and get it out faster than anyone else rather than take another minute or so to do a proper job these days...
im assuming its gonna look exactly the same as the current iphone 4 just with betta specs right
welcome to the team sprint
What I want is only iPhone factory unlock...for the next iPhone.....
Because so painful to wait for the baseband unlock.
True dat, can we go revert back to the old site please?

When Long Beach State made the NCAA Tournament for the first time under coach Dan Monson last season, it no doubt made the 49ers and their fans thirsty for more.
Before those thirsts could begin to be quenched, they had to agonize through a difficult nonconference schedule this season because three midseason transfers were not available.
Finally, for the first time in 2012-13, the 49ers will have the services of all three when they play host to Pacific in a Big West Conference men's basketball opener today at 4:05 p.m. at the Walter Pyramid (on Prime Ticket).
Reserve post Edgar Garibay will be in his second game. Guard Keala King and forward Tony Freeland will be in their first. Garibay's first-semester grades posted in time for him to play in the Dec. 18 game at UCLA, those of King's and Freeland's did not.
It's a joyous occasion, but head coach Dan Monson expressed caution Thursday. He said in all his 30 years of coaching, he has never had two players not play until a conference opener.
"There's no two ways about it, we're still going to be experimenting," Monson said. "And it's just not feasible to think that we're going to be real smooth."
Especially since, in the Tigers, the 49ers (4-7) are going against a team with a deliberate style tailor-made for a team not in sync.
"I can't think of a worse opening opponent for us in that this team is broken easily defensively and as soon as one guy makes a mistake, it seems like we get scored on; we just don't fight through that very well," Monson said. "And then adding two more guys against a team ... they thrive on being patient until you break down and again, that's been our Achilles' heel, so I'm expecting the worst."
Monson laughed a little, but he sounded like he was only half-joking. "Just a very difficult chore for this basketball team and yet we're going to have to continue to get better and this game is going to hopefully help us do that," he said.
Though Garibay figures to play behind the rapidly improving Dan Jennings, King and Freeland figure to both start eventually.
King, a 6-foot-5 guard out of Mater Dei, was a solid player at Arizona State. Freeland, a 6-7 forward out of Los Angeles, twice scored 25 points in a game while playing at DePaul.
One, but probably not both, could start today. "I'm committed to starting a different lineup this game but who that is I don't know," Monson said.
"If it's one of them, I would welcome that in that you're not trying to infiltrate two new guys off the bench at the same time. "If you can start one of them, then you can bring one of them in off the bench and kind of get them settled down at different times instead of two guys out there feeling their way at one time."
Monson noted the obvious, that this infusion of new players gives the team depth it hasn't had all season, no thanks to injuries to Branford Jones, Jerramy King and Nick Shepherd.
Pacific is 6-6. The Tigers, playing their last season under soon-to-be-retiring head coach Bob Thomason, are led by senior guard Lorenzo McCloud. He's averaging 12.3 points. Junior forward Ross Rivera is averaging 9.9 points.
For an example of how many minutes some 49ers have played with a shallow roster, they have three players averaging at least 31.3 minutes, with guard Mike Caffey averaging 34.5. McCloud leads Pacific with 27.7 minutes per game.

Memorial Butler lecture features studies in early Alzheimer's diagnosisMay 29, 2013
Family, friends, colleagues, and the NIH scientific community celebrated the life of the NIA's founding director May 8 at the Dr. Robert N. Butler Memorial Lecture. The lecture, part of the prestigious NIH Director's Wednesday Afternoon Lecture Series, featured Dr. Ronald C. Petersen, director of the Mayo Clinic Study of Aging and the Mayo Alzheimer's Research Center, as well as remarks about Dr. Butler by current NIA Director Dr. Richard Hodes. Lecture host NIH Director Dr. Francis Collins briefly discussed progress and opportunities in Alzheimer's disease research as he introduced Dr. Petersen.
NIH Director Dr. Francis Collins, Dr. Ron Petersen, and NIA Director Dr. Richard Hodes at the Butler Memorial Lecture.
The NIA was founded in 1974 after a grass-roots campaign led by research advocates Florence Mahoney and Mary Lasker, joined by a cadre of congressional leaders, pushed for a national institute focused on diseases and conditions associated with advanced age. Dr. Butler, a passionate advocate for older people, was one of the first scientists to identify Alzheimer's disease as a major challenge to healthy old age. Dr. Butler died July 4, 2010.
Dr. Petersen's talk, "Neuroimaging and Biomarkers: How Early Can We Diagnose Alzheimer's?" discussed the movement toward an earlier definition of Alzheimer's disease, describing the recently revised diagnostic guidelines for Alzheimer's disease that offer a new paradigm for the disease. The guidelines, issued by the NIA and the Alzheimer's Association in 2011, define a spectrum of disease, starting with a presymptomatic phase detectable only by biomarkers and/or imaging, progressing to an intermediate phase of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and, finally, to a phase marked by overt symptoms of dementia.
The guidelines are primarily being tested in research settings, as scientists look for ways to detect disease before symptoms appear. "Most things are falling into line," Dr. Petersen said, "but there are a lot of questions that need to be answered." The "million-dollar question" is whether the different types of neuroimaging and cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers researchers now use to detect the earliest brain changes of Alzheimer's can predict who among cognitively normal people will develop Alzheimer's and who will not, he said.
Scientists know that certain brain changes begin to occur about 15 years before memory loss and other symptoms of Alzheimer's appear. The hope is to use neuroimaging and biomarkers to identify presymptomatic people who are destined to develop Alzheimer's so they can get treatments that could prevent or stop the disease before it causes more brain damage.
To develop a predictive model, researchers are using scans that measure changes in brain structure, volume, and metabolism, as well as biomarkers that show changes in blood and cerebrospinal fluid, in different study populations, Dr. Petersen said. Some of Dr. Petersen's work focuses on the Mayo Clinic Study of Aging, a population of about 3,000 older residents of Olmsted County, MN. The effort is a longitudinal study of normal aging and early cognitive impairment in a community setting.
The techniques used in these studies must be refined and validated in a general population before doctors can use them routinely in diagnosing Alzheimer's or MCI, Dr. Petersen said. "So far, the data that are coming in are very consistent with what the theoretical model suggests," he added. Researchers now know, for example, that individuals with MCI, beta-amyloid deposits, and neuronal injury in the brain are more likely to progress to dementia than those without those features.
Dr. Petersen noted that none of this research would have been possible without Dr. Butler, who was instrumental in establishing Alzheimer's disease as an important area of research at NIA.

Just got a new alfa usb. Though there are some rumours that says that 500mW is extremely hazardous for the human body, I'm still in a state of confusion whether it is true or not.
I did a little calculation and found out that wifi is in a range of microwaves - (10^-3) of a wavelength. Excessive use might bring about mutation of genes, especially those who has balls. Might get them fried.
What do you guys think? Help us to help ourselves.

Your answer on Backtrack 3 probably won't be answered because it isn't supported any more. In BT4, any error messages when you type "startx" into the prompt?
On usb and pcmcia cards, buy one that's supported, such as the alfa awus036h or something otherwise you'll be having troubles getting something unsupported to work correctly

Great location, very clean and helpful staff The motion activated light outside my room keep clicking on and off the whole night. Even with tightly closed door and window, the light comes in from under the door. Quite distracting and annoying when you are trying to sleep.
Excellent hostel, great, clean room with really comfy beds and sheets, amazing location - right in the heart of the city. The staff was very pleasant and the washrooms were clean. I loved it, would stay there again. Free wi-fi!
it's quite cheap and good location hard to find, direction is unclear.
great servcie
friendly, clean, well decorated, excellent internet, comfortable beds, great location, a kitchen and a balcony!
Stuff was very help-full. We really liked girl Karolina who was working in reception. Hostel was very clean, they even were cleaning it several times a day. Shared bathroom was also clean. Amazing Location.
Beeing a retired teacher on a modest pension I decided to try this type of accomodation with some reservation,thinking that it was mainly for young people.However I shared a room with a younger Canadian man and a younger Japanese man. Both were friendly and considerate and they did not make me feel out of place! The staff were pleasant and very helpful. Very few minor ones like the lack of bedside night lights so as not to disturb others in the room.No bedside table for each occupant in the room.
The location is great. The fact that the hotel took the money from my credit card as long as booking.com says clearly that the payment will be done upon arrival cash.
The staff were friendly and could speak English. Nice rooms for the price. Nice location.
clean hostel with helpful staff and excellent value for money. Try to get a room with an outside window as these are much nicer than the inner courtyard rooms.
the rooms need air-con, or at least more fans that work
1. clean 2. nice staff 3. good location 4. sweet home for backpackers 5. good value for money 1. it is a hostel anyway... 2.charged the money from my credit card even before we arrived in Valencia...they should have my authurization to do so...
The staff was very friendly and helpful also the activities like the pub crawl and paella class are very good It was very hot in the bathrooms and dormitory (2nd floor)
The hotel is really cheap, and the reception is open 24hours per day. I arrives at 2:00 AM the first day without any problem. It's not really confortable, there's no breakfast and the bathroom is for men and women. And there's a lot of noise !
The staff was friendly and the location was wonderful. 5 minute walk to the heart of the city.. great place
Pretty hotel in the center of Valencia. The old building, excellent view. Much of loud activity, somebody likes it, somebody (me, for example) not.
The free Wi-Fi with the the communal computer.
Friendly, nice people, breakfast, nice vibe, purple. no.
24h open, good staff, wireless for free, internet point 1€ for hour... a lot of other guys in the hostel! fuckin crazy the rooms are a little small
it was perfect the staff are wonderful, the view from our balcony was really really good! (room 61 has its own personal balcony overlooking the city, ask for it by name!!)
Greathostel top quality with really lovely front desk and bar staff! Kitchen facilities are great and bathrooms and showers good too.
The staff was very nice and cooperative. Their English was great and easy to understand. Although it was easy to meet interesting people in the hostel. I've booked a "only-women-room" (!!!) which is expensier than a mix room. But I got a mix room and nobody said anything before. It was a big negative surprise in the morning!!!! But I got no refund. The rooms are to small while you're traveling with normal luggage (impossible to open) and there was no possibility to enclose something larger. The room just had two electrial sockets for four people, for me that is not enough. The hostel is okay if you're traveling just for the weekend with little luggage but not for a longer trip. Be careful with cancelations. They have to be 48 h before leaving the hostel, even if you are allready there.
friendly staff and a very great location
Close to Metro/City, cheap, good atmosphere, bed was comfortable enough, sheets were clean. Doors have electronic keys. Don't forget it's a Hostel not a Hotel
The hostel is close to many bus stops. They give a free drink with stay.
Location is excellent. Wifi available in the public area as well as several computers to use free of charge. Front desk staff was unfriendly. The room was very basic. Shower had a push button which turned the water off every minute or so and you had to keep pressing it to continue the water flow. The room was very overpiced for what you get. We ended up staying an extra night in Valencia and the front desk wanted to charge us 120 euro for the night...we found an actual hotel with amazing amenities for less than half that price the same day.
The air-conditioning and miniature refrigerator were the two highlights. We chose this hostel as the Home hostel around the corner (with dormitories) was appalling and we required a private room. 1. No self-catering kitchen; 2. The showers are controlled and activated by timed buttons and consequently require pushing every 10 or so seconds to maintain water pressure;

Xavier English instructor donates profits from her book to the Roloff Charity Foundation
Roloff foundation supports institutions such as the Dwarf Athletic Center of America | October 17, 2012
Marilyn Clark, an adjunct professor in Xavier's Department of English, has written a book offering a fresh perspective on Charles Dickens' beloved novel A Christmas Carol. Her book, Mrs. Cratchit's Christmas, asks: "Isn't it time you heard Mrs. Cratchit's side of the story?"
Because Clark's story, like Dickens' tale, features a character who is disabled (Tiny Tim), she is donating half of the profits from the book's sale to the Amy Roloff Charity Foundation, a nonprofit agency with a mission to "advocate, inspire and add value to the lives of youth who face personal life challenges."
The foundation benefits many institutions including the Dwarf Athletic Center of America and Friends of the Orphans.
Amy Roloff is a nationally recognized spokesperson for the physically disadvantaged and is known to millions of viewers of TLC channel's "Little People, Big World," which chronicles how Matt and Amy Roloff have triumphed over their disability to succeed as entrepreneurs and as parents of four children.
Clark is making her donations to the Amy Roloff Charity Foundation in part because Tiny Tim is a disabled child who survives because a caring benefactor provides resources for the care he needs, just as the foundation does.
Mrs. Cratchit's Christmas can be purchased by contacting the author at firstname.lastname@example.com or online.
Visit the website of the Amy Roloff Charity Foundation to learn more about the foundation and the organizations it supports.


text: After five years together, Eliza Dushku and Rick Fox have split. This has been coming for a few months, and Eliza was very gracious when she told The Boston Globe that the reason they split is that she is "a Boston girl and Rick is an LA guy." If you mean that he likes to be with other women then his girlfriend and she believes in fidelity, then yes, I can see where she was going with that statement. For some reason I thought they were actually married. They seemed like a married couple. I think another issue was that Rick is a very jealous guy. How often did anyone see Eliza out of the house at an event unless Rick was glued to her side? The former Buffy star took one last jab at Rick courtesy of LA by telling the paper, "I'd rather be a little physically cold here than emotionally cold in L.A." Eliza has never been one to hold back has she?

Gabriel Medina Wins The Rip Curl Pro Search San Francisco
"The champ, the champ!" a small contingent of Brazilian fans chanted as 17-year old Gabriel Medina took to the stage after handily beating Joel Parkinson to win his second world tour event in just four tries. "I don't know what I did," he said coyly from the dais. He didn't say much, but his smirk told the story; a small upward curl at the edges of his lips, that of someone who didn't seem all that surprised they'd just won another event.
And the final wasn't even close. He opened up with a 7.5, then minutes later unleashed a vertical backhand hook in the pocket of a frothy right, followed by a series of gaffs for a 9. Parko seemed stunned from the barrage and never recovered.
Parko was far from the only guy that Gabriel Medina tore through in San Francisco, an event favored to be won by a fit, wave-savvy power surfer like Slater, Parko, or Taylor Knox. Medina took all three down, and then some.
There have been Brazilian world title contenders in the past. This time is different. For anyone who thought the mid-year reseeding of the tour was a waste of time, Medina's world tour results beg to differ. His secret? "No secret," he says, "I've been training a lot, competing a lot, getting more experience." If his answer sounds a little stock and boring, well, it is. But in the water, he's a sinewy bolt of electricity, so we'll forgive the understated answers.
Some have wondered how he'll do in the heavier stops on tour. We'll find out in almost exactly a month at Pipe. Medina isn't messing around with the rest of the Triple Crown; he's already got his sights set on doing well at Pipe. "I'm going straight to Hawaii, no Triple Crown, just Pipe," he says. "I will surf Pipe every day."
Between Miguel Pupo winning the Coldwater Classic last week in Santa Cruz (who happens to travel with Gabriel), and Medina taking out the Search event, plus Adriano DeSouza winning in Portugal, and Medina winning France before that, it may be time for the surfing world to learn Portuguese.—Casey Koteen

ASP Press Release

ASP World Title Event No. 10 of 11
Ocean Beach, San Francisco, California USA
November 1 – 12, 2011
Gabriel Medina Wins Rip Curl Pro Search San Francisco
OCEAN BEACH, San Francisco/California (Monday, November 7, 2011) – Gabriel Medina (BRA), 17, has won the Rip Curl Pro Search San Francisco, defeating Joel Parkinson (AUS), 30, in firing three-to-five foot waves at Ocean Beach to secure his second elite ASP World Tour victory this season.
Stop No. 10 of 11 on the men's ASP World Title Race, the Rip Curl Pro Search saw Kelly Slater (USA), 39, officially secure his 11th ASP World Title yesterday while several surfers looking to secure a result prior to the ASP Top 34 end of year rotation put in stellar performances.
Medina, who joined the ASP Top 34 after the midyear rotation, has been in amazing form thus far, winning two events after competing in just four as an official member of the 2011 roster. The highly-touted Brazilian wasted little time in his Final campaign against Parkinson, belting a 7.50 and a 9.00, both out of 10, in the opening minutes with critical backhand blasts and controlled the heat throughout its entirety.
"This has been incredible," Medina said. "This is my second World Tour win and it has been great. I'm having fun on the Tour. I don't know what I did out there, I just try to go big and it was great to have a final with Parko (Joel Parkinson). He is one of my favorite surfers."
Medina's run on the Final day of competition was nothing short of amazing, as he took the day's highest heat total of 17.33, out of 20, while defeating freshly crowned 11-Time ASP World Champion Kelly Slater (USA), 39, and Taylor Knox (USA), 40, before topping the Stylish Australian in the Final.
"I feel good and confident and I'm really happy," Medina said after his Semifinals heat win. "It was hard with Taylor (Knox) and Kelly (Slater) and I'm just stoked. That was a tough heat and I knew it'd be hard. I just got my last wave and it saved me. Conditions are kind of fun, it's cold, but it's really fun and I just tried my best."
Parkinson quietly navigated through the opening rounds of competition, but lit up the high-performance beachbreak conditions on the final day, threading several technical barrels and unloading his patented carves en route to the Final, but was unable to put a stop to Medina and finished runner-up overall.
"It would have been nice to have won that won but I couldn't find a wave out there," Parkinson said. "Gabriel (Medina) has been absolutely ripping this whole event and congratulations to him. He's got a huge future and I'm excited to watch him over the next few years. I just want to thank everyone here in San Francisco, it's been amazing."
Taylor Knox (USA), 40, was impressive in the powerful beachbreak conditions on offer at Ocean Beach, besting high-flying Brazilian Miguel Pupo (BRA), 19, veteran Australian Kieren Perrow (AUS), 34, and Bede Durbidge (AUS), 28, to match his season-best result of an equal 3rd place finish after he fell to Medina in the Semifinals.
"I'm happy to be in the Semifinals and be one of the last four standing," Knox said. "I've really felt like my consistency finally came around, at age 40. I've been finding my zone and having fun and been enjoying the city and surfing as well and enjoying the culture a little."
Alejo Muniz (BRA), 21, 2011 ASP Dream Tour rookie, matched his best result of the year today, cracking the Semifinals for the third time this season. The young South American blitzed an in-form Brett Simpson (USA), 26, in the Quarterfinals before going down to Parkinson in the Semifinals despite vaulting some solid aerials.
"I'm frustrated to not make the Final again," Muniz said. "I feel like my surfing is there and I'm ready but it didn't happen again. It's okay. This is another good result for me and Joel (Parkinson) was surfing very well. I still have a lot to learn but I know I will keep improving."
Slater fought hard in his Quarterfinals matchup against young Brazilian Gabriel Medina, but was unable to find the score needed to advance out of the heat and is now changing his focus towards the final stop on the ASP World Tour at the iconic Banzai Pipeline.
"At this point I'm just going to be focused on Pipe," Slater said. "I'd love to win Pipe. Every year Phil Roberts makes an amazing trophy. Gerry Lopez shapes it and Jeff Divine puts a photo on it and Phil Roberts paints it up. In my eyes that's the prized possession in surfing. It's really a piece of surf history. I won three years ago, but two years ago Taj (Burrow) got me and last year I gave Jeremy (Flores) that wave and I didn't get the chance to make that Final. It's exciting to have that chance."

Detroit Lions wide receiver Nate Burleson broke his right leg during Monday Night Football and will miss the rest of the season. Burleson had to leave the game after catching a 16-yard pass in the third quarter. Former Boise State receiver Titus Young will replace Burleson in the starting lineup and rookie receiver Ryan Broyles should also see a big increase in playing time. Detroit may need to bring in an additional receiver since they only have five active players remaining.
Fantasy Analysis:
The Lions were already in trouble and this certainly doesn't help matters. Matthew Stafford isn't playing like himself. Calvin Johnson is making the most of his limited opportunities. Titus Young has underachieved in what many thought would be a breakout season. Now, Burleson is out and it puts more pressure on two young receivers to step up and make plays. Young isn't an automatic add as far as I'm concerned. He's seen the field quite often already and hasn't done much for fantasy owners. That said, given his high upside, he's probably worth a look regardless.

Thread: weight tubes.......
weight tubes.......
I've talked to some people that have hunted big game animals before and used weight tubes in their arrows to add weight for velocity and penetration. Just wanted to know if anybody has used them, and if they were good. I also want to know if you can use them in carbon arrows....Any information would be great thanks......

As far as velocity goes,
I don't believe you will gain any velocity because you are increasing your mass, but still only applying the same amount of energy to it to get it moving. You may gain penetration because once you get your arrow up to speed, it will retain more energy because of it's increased mass. Think of it this way, If you try and throw a cotton ball, You can get it going real fast but it doesn't possess the energy to keep it going. Likewise, if you throw baseball it will travel farther because it has enough mass to carry it through the air.
As far as weight tubes go, I really don't know anyone that makes them for carbons and I think the more important issue is going to be shot placement. You can bring down the largest game with a correctly placed shot and that should be the ultimate goal. If you aren't sure if your shot will hit where you want it to, you may be either rushing the shot or not have a clear enough shot.
The other thing about weighting your arrows is that you may also be changing the arrows ability to flex (spine)which may make it shoot differently.
Not saying it's not worth investigating, but there's a lot more to some things to consider than what we first think of.

Chris Young still hospitalized with leg infection
Listen to Chris Young on iHeartRadio
Chris Young remains hospitalized as he battles a leg infection. The 28-year-old country star said in a Facebook post Thursday morning that he was "still in the ICU," but "wanted to says thanks for all the well wishes."
He added his apologies for having to cancel his upcoming shows.
Young was admitted to a Denver-area hospital Wednesday, and listed in stable condition. He was traveling to Montana for a concert Wednesday night when he began experiencing symptoms, and was sent by ambulance to the hospital. On Wednesday, Young said he "didn't even know" he was sick, explaining that he felt "fine" one minute and the next he was "being rushed to the hospital."
Young's reps say they don't know the origins of the infection. Chris had to cancel Wednesday's performance along with the rest of this week's tour dates. He's expected to return to the road next week, and resume his tour with a show in Redding, California on Wednesday.

At a nondescript tram stop in West Melbourne this morning, a motley crew of media types and competition winners waited longer than usual for a tram in the cold.
This was no ordinary tram, mind. For one morning only, The Voice's smooth-talking coach, Seal, had come to Melbourne with his sole remaining charge, Harrison Craig, the 18-year-old Chelsea boy favoured to win the live grand final on Monday night.
It's been a dramatic week for Seal. His fellow coach and "brother", Joel Madden, was kicked out of a hotel at Sydney's The Star casino when a small amount of marijuana was allegedly found in his room last Sunday. Seal quickly took to Twitter to lambast the hotel and Australia's "trash media" for their handling of the situation. The tweets were later deleted from his account, and Seal backpedalled. "It's been almost 11 weeks away from my kids and me saying 'I can't wait to go home' was me missing being home with them," he tweeted.
Today, on the tram, he didn't care to talk about any of that. "I think that this week is about one thing and one thing only - it's about the four finalists that have made their way to this point in the competition," he said. Coach and artist flashed their pearly whites as they fielded questions about their "journey" and exchanged words of praise for each other.
"I do feel I'm privileged enough to be sitting next to the person who most deserves the title because of what he represents, not just as an artist but as a human being," said Seal in his usual effusive style, as passengers munched on cupcakes decorated with pictures of Harrison's face.
Craig, who has a speech impediment, is currently occupying the top two spots on the Australian iTunes chart with the songs he performed on last week's show.
It's all going great guns now, but where does he see himself in a year's time? "My aspiration is to be a global recording artist, I'd love to be that, that's my dream," he says.
History hasn't been kind to past winners of The Voice . Karise Eden, who won last year's debut Australian series coached by Seal, had initial success, followed by a quiet stretch. Her new single is currently sitting at No. 19 on the ARIA charts. The winner of last year's UK series is now singing at birthday parties, her debut album recently flopping, and none of the three US winners to date are known outside their own country.
That's not going to stop Seal campaigning hard for his charge. For all his talk of "being a winner already", he takes every opportunity to urge the public to vote for Harrison.
At one point the tram stops and coach and artist alight for a photo opportunity with the driver at the top of Bourke Street. Schoolgirls waiting to cross the road call out to Seal, asking for a photo of their own. There's no time, the tram is taking off again, and the girls scream as Seal walks away. He turns around and smiles. "Don't forget to vote!"
Odds on favourite
One online bookmaker has already paid out on Victorian Harrison Craig taking the title. Craig is a red-hot favourite to win the second season of The Voice, which reaches its climax on Monday night.
Craig is up against folk singer Celia Pavey, former tenor Luke Kennedy and singer/songwriter Danny Ross in the grand final. Votes are awarded for iTunes downloads and via SMS.
Sportsbet.com.au spokesman Shaun Anderson said they have held more than $30,000 on The Voice and about half of the money has been wagered on Craig. They paid out the winning bets on Friday and then shortened Craig's odds to $1.03.
''The biggest individual win is $1,500,'' Anderson said. ''It has been more of a case of basically the majority of people betting on him rather than one massive bet going on him."
The bookmaker could still face a sizeable payout if Ross, an 80-1 shot, caused an upset. ''Our worst possible result will be Danny Ross,'' said Anderson. ''One punter put $100 on him at $126 for a win of $12,600.''
The Voice grand final starts at 7.30pm on Monday on the Nine Network.

so i had a 10.7 gig file which wasnt read at all. After a little research, i split the file into seven parts, each 1.6-1.7 gig large. the first one was read correctly and worked fine. the others all were read, i think, but when the crack actually started to run, instead of the usual pretty one line of each output (key, transient, master....) i saw three of each at least and the output wasnt staying in one place like aircrack usually does, but constantly adding more text to the console. i have NO idea why this would happen. is it the splitting program i used? (gsplit) a file problem? or anything else? please help. im using windows seven host, and BT5 R1 in vmware. my vmware settings are 4 gig of ram, 1 processor with 4 cores and 35 gig HD.
update: I tried to replicate the bug to get a screenshot for posting, and it worked fine. I don't know if that means its gone for good, or some other weird thing just happened..... If someone else has had this problem and still has it,please let me know of fixes so that I wont have it again.

Eagles traded their 2nd and 3rd rounders for what exactly?
And I guess if Jones was cleared medically then I'd be okay with it especially if Kelly decides to transition to a 3-4, but I'm not super confident in that pick just cause of the fact his career could get cut short.

As much as some Bengals fans would love the pick of Barrett Jones, it's not going to happen. They like the centers they have. I really don't see him lasting that long anyway.

I cannot see Jordan Poyer dropping to the 3rd round, when he plays in a BCS conference and was tied for 2nd in INT's in college football??
Only behind Milliner and Banks does he really fall. Rhodes and Poyer to me are toss ups.
He wouldnt last till the 3rd round.
That beings said, I like Jackson Jeffcoat and the value is there for the Redskins, and Tony Jefferson clearly addresses our biggest need. Would much rather have Phillip Thomas.
*Side note: Anthony Barr is going back to UCLA.

Not that great for the Vikings, there are better WR options in round one, better options in round two and three, and CB isn't a third round need unless someone falls to them. Also, I'd suggest putting line-breaks between your rounds, would make it easier to read. And historically the odds of no QB's going in round one are about nill, and teams will generally overdraft QB's so there will probably be more than most people are predicting.

Then I think you made a mistake with this line:
40. Oakland Raiders (via Buffalo) - Bennie Logan DT LSU
Especially as Buffalo doesn't seem to get anything in return.

I was wondering the same thing.

I'm confused, as your mock is difficult to translate without clearly pointing out the trades. Did Philly give Indy their 2nd and 3rd for the 24th overall pick and draft Elam?
Not sure if I want Jones at #4 if he isn't medically cleared.

I am sure he could play guard. I wouldn't take him, but it isn't out of ther realm of possibility.

Seems like a syntax error on line 5 of filename.rb.
I wrote a small script in ruby which make use of Nokogiri and tried to fire it up in Backtrack 5 but it didn't seem to load.
The error message is :filename.rb:5 'require' no such file to load --nokogiri (LoadError)
from filename.rb:5 in <main>
I do 'gem install nokogiri'. Gem seems to install fine, but the error persists.
When I do gem query --local, it even says that Nokogiri (1.5.0, 1.4.4) is installed correctly.
All the required libraries for Nokogiri seems to be already installed OK.
I've checked out a few websites such as this:
However, none of them is 100% the same issue (they have different error messages), and the various solutions I have tried so far do not work (such as writing require 'rubygems' in my ruby script).
If anyone knows how to resolve this issue, this would be quite appreciated.
Seems like a syntax error on line 5 of filename.rb.
I'm a compulsive post editor, you might wanna wait until my post has been online for 5-10 mins before quoting it as it will likely change.
I know I seem harsh in some of my replies. SORRY! But if you're doing something illegal or posting something that seems to be obvious BS I'm going to call you on it.
Aight! I found the answer!
ruby --disable-gems filename.rb
does the trick.
+ include require 'rubygems' in filename.rb itself.

Ok, let me justify that headline a little before people get all over me. He isn't completely terrible as in he shouldn't be in the league terrible. He's just a terrible first line center, and probably not a very good second or third line center either (at least not until he improves defensively). He'd be an OK 4th liner and injury fill in depth player at close to minimum salary. Let me explain.
The last 2 seasons Bozak has mostly played with Phil Kessel and Joffrey Lupul became his second winger when he joined the Leafs. Those are two pretty solid wingers to play with so lets look at Bozak's production with those two solid players.
I want to compare Bozak to other top 9 players and conveniently if we look at all forwards with 1250 minutes of 5v5 zone start adjusted ice time over the past 2 seasons we come up with 270 players which is precisely an average of 9 per team, or 3 lines per team. So, how does Bozak rank among these players?
- He ranks 208th in points/60 vs Kessel's 45 and Lupul's 47th.
- He ranks 197th in goals/60, 211th in assists/60 and 187th in first assists/60.
- He ranks 264th in shots/60.
So, despite playing predominately with first line players his individual offensive stats are at a 3rd line level.
So, what about PP situations? There are 169 forwards with 250 5v4 PP minutes over the previous two seasons while Bozak has played 417:28 which puts him among the top 65 forwards in the league. How has Bozak fared?
- 147th in points/60 to Kessel's 65th and Lupul's 18th.
- 104th in goals/60, 140th in assists/60 and 150th in first assists/60.
- He ranks 165th in shots/60.
Think about that for a minute. Of 169 forwards with >250 5v4 PP minutes over the past 2 seasons he ranks 5th last in shots/60 and has the 30th worst first assists/60 rankings. That means he is playing on the PP but isn't shooting much and isn't a primary set up man for the shooters either.
The only redeeming factors for Bozak is that he seems to be developing into a really good face off guy and he seems to be able to play with an elevated shooting percentage. His 5v5 ZS adjusted shooting percentage ranks 30th of 270 over the past 2 seasons while his 5v4 PP shooting percentage ranks 14th of 169. If you look at Bozak's shot locations for last season you will see that the majority of Bozak's shots and goals come from close in and 5 of his 11 5v5 goals last season came on rebounds.
So, to summarize, Tyler Bozak doesn't shoot much, isn't a great playmaker, isn't good defensively (explained elsewhere) and yet coaches seem to insist on using him as a first line center. His main contribution to a team is winning face offs and going to the opposing teams net waiting for the puck to come to him so he can pot an easy close in goal. It is not completely unreasonable to believe that a guy like David Steckel could give you as good or better performance on face offs and similar lackluster offensive results with better defensive play if given the same opportunities to play with top end players that Tyler Bozak has had. That isn't to say I want Steckel to be the Leafs new first line center, I was just trying to put Bozak's usefulness (or lack of) into perspective.

Associated Press
ATLANTA — Delta Air Lines officials said the company will hire 300 pilots starting in November.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that the development marks the first pilot hiring since 2010 for the Atlanta-based airline.
Company officials said they'll add 50 pilots a month from November through early 2014, then about 20 a month through September 2014.
Pilots who were previously furloughed will have first dibs on the positions, but not all are expected to return.
Pilots from Delta Connection carriers Compass and Endeavor Air are expected to fill some of the positions, along with experienced pilots from elsewhere such as other regional carriers and the U.S. military.

What is it?
The classic American chopped salad, the Cobb was created by the owner of Los Angeles' long-gone Brown Derby restaurant in 1937 from leftover ingredients - namely bacon, tomato, chicken, avocado, hard-boiled egg, chives, watercress, lettuce and blue cheese.
When Hollywood star Paul Newman opened his restaurant, The Dressing Room, he insisted there always be a chopped salad on the menu that you could eat with a spoon. Now it's back, as part of our love affair with American diner food.
Where is it?
The chopped salad has been on the menu at Rockpool Bar & Grill since day one, where it is tossed and served tableside. "It's the perfect starter when you're likely to eat a lot of protein in a steak," Neil Perry says. "Like all things that are simple, they are only great when done well."
At The Diner at Trunk, the kitchen is proud of its "Chop Chop" salad, a gorgeous arrangement of neat rows of tomato, cucumber, carrot, corn, beetroot, capsicum and cottage cheese.
"It's a fun way to eat crudites," chef Orazio Cutuli says. "We don't mix it and mush it. We love that it's really clean, fresh and simple." His tip? "Invest in beautiful vegetables or grow your own; this is where organic veggies will really shine. And take the time when making it to chop it up so that you get a little bit of everything in every bite."
At the Bayswater Diner, chef Mark Williamson does a classic Cobb with egg, cucumber, tomato, crisp bacon, lettuce and avocado, with Roquefort and chicken as possible add-ons. "It's great for a weekend brunch, or as a side at dinner" he says.
At Rockpool Bar & Grill, the chopped salad is cut to order, then dressed and tossed at the table. "We started the house chopped salad in 2006" says Neil Perry. "It's the perfect starter when you're likely to eat a lot of protein in a steak."
"It's an American steakhouse essential" says chef Matt Cambridge of The Chophouse, where there are five different chopped salads on the menu, from a fattoush to the California, a deconstructed sushi roll. "There should always be something soft like a goats curd and something crunchy, like lettuce, cucumber or green beans," advises Cambridge.
Why do I care?
Because it's bright, crunchy and fresh - and it's as much fun to design and compose as it is to toss and eat.
Can I do it at home?
You can turn any of your favourite salads - Nicoise, fattoush, caesar - into a chopped salad by chopping the ingredients and arranging them in rows.

Cobb salad
You can dial this up any way you like (red capsicum, celery, carrots, apple cucumber, salami, chickpeas).
4 hard-boiled eggs
4 thick slices bacon, diced
4 cooked chicken breasts
1 avocado, peeled and stoned
4 tomatoes
1 cos lettuce, finely sliced
200g cottage cheese
100g blue cheese, chopped
2 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tbsp sugar or honey
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
Dash of Worcestershire sauce
Sea salt and pepper
4 tbsp olive oil
1. Peel the hard-boiled eggs and cut into small dice. Fry the bacon until crisp, then drain well. Keeping the ingredients separate, chop the chicken breast, avocado and tomatoes, and allow tomatoes to drain their juices.
2. Whisk the dressing ingredients together until smooth. Toss the lettuce in half the dressing and arrange in a single line in the middle of each dinner plate. Add a parallel row of cottage cheese and top it with chopped blue cheese. Arrange the chicken, eggs, bacon, avocado and tomato either side, and drizzle with remaining dressing. Let everyone toss their own salad together as they eat.

MPFOSI has been modified extensively since release 2-4. The major changes are:
This means that serial support can now be used with all low level drivers supported by asynDriver. Amoung these are: standard serial ports on solaris, linux, and vxWorks. IP488 and IP octalUART on vxWorks.
Only one library mpf is built. mpf, asynDriver, and ipac components are selected by definitions in the xxxInclude.dbd file.
The plan, assuming not too many screams of anger are heard, is to remove support for remoter servers. If this is done MPF can be greatly simplified and support for user defined message types can be added.
You application xxxInclude.dbd file MUST include:
include "mpf.dbd"
These now generate C functions that call the C++ static methods. If any source code has a cast to DEVSUPFUN in the invocation of these macros the cast must be removed.
The following now use the new iocsh var facility: tcpDebug, RMRClientDebug, RMRServerDebug.
Uses latest build rules
ttyVxPort now uses the name ttyVxPort instead of ttyPort everywhere.
devStringMpf calls dbTranslateEscape for output strings.
initTtyVxPort calls epicsTimerQueueAllocate at initialization.
Everywhere the word sniff was used, the word peek is now used. e.g. serialPortSniff is now serialPortPeek. The new sniff handler uses that display format from Mark Rivers.
mpfSerial support is now bundled with mpf. Major changes have been made to mpfSerial since the vxWorks only version. The main change is that it now supports "standards" for accessing serial devices. It supports POSIX termios, vxWorks tyCo, and also the IPAC tyGSOctal driver.
None of this support is currently available with the OSI version of MPF.
Build rules for mpf applications have been greatly simplified.
DevMpf has a new method bind, which must be called immediately after any object derived from class DevMpf is created. This binds to the MPF server. Since binding may result in virtual class methods being called, binding MUST be dove after construction. Thus it is not possible to bind in the constructor for DevMpf.
If client and server have different byte orders RMRServer did not work. This is fixed.

GENEVA, N.Y.—The Hobart defense pitched shutouts in the first and fourth quarters, while the Statesmen attack scored three unanswered goals to close out an 8-7 ECAC victory over Fairfield on Boswell Field at the Caird Center for Sports and Recreation. Senior goalie Evan Kirk earned the win with 13 saves, while senior attackman Mike White notched a game-high four points.
Hobart (4-4, 1-0) had the edge in shots (48-46), faceoffs (10-7), and clearing (.882-.750), while Fairfield (4-4, 0-1) enjoyed a slim margin in ground balls (31-30). The Statesmen also committed fewer turnovers (10-11).
Sophomore attackman Tyler Simmons gave Hobart the early lead, scoring the only goal of the first quarter. He finished the day with two goals and an assist.
The Stags seized the momentum early in the second quarter, scoring three straight goals in less than three minutes. Senior attackman Doug Kuring and junior midfielder Brent Adams sandwiched even-strength goals around a man-up tally by first-year attackman Jordan Greenfield for a 3-1 lead with 9:20 left in the opening half.
The Statesmen got the extra-man goal back before the break when first-year attackman Alex Love cashed in a feed from junior midfielder Chris Pedersen. Hobart was fortunate to break through in the second as junior goalie Charlie Cipriano was nearly unbeatable. He logged six of his 14 saves in the second frame.
Fairfield stretched its lead to two with two of the first three goals of the third quarter, but Pedersen set up a second Statesmen man-up goal, this one by sophomore midfielder Tyler Smith, and junior attackman Sam Miller followed with a goal to extend his points streak to 18 game and knot the game at 5-5.
However, Greenfield and first-year attackman Eric Warden found the back of the net in the waning minutes of the third quarter to give the Stags a 7-5 lead heading into the final frame.
At the 10:08 mark, Simmons set the table for first-year midfielder Cam Stone to make it a one-goal game. Fairfield was able to protect its one-goal lead, killing off a pair of penalties, before Hobart pulled even with 4:18 left. White assisted on Miller's team-leading 17th goal of the year, setting up a tension-filled stretch run.
White's fourth assist of the day led to Love's game-winner with three minutes remaining. In a futile attempt to force overtime, the Stags got off three shots, but the first went wide and Kirk handled the other two.
Junior midfielder Bobby Dattilo won 10-of-17 faceoffs and scooped up six ground balls. Senior long-stick midfielder Alex Caton matched Dattilo's six GBs and forced a pair of turnovers.
Fairfield got three-point days from sophomore attackman Sam Snow (2g, 1a) and Adams (1g, 2a).
Hobart will close out its five-game homestand on Saturday, April 2, when the Statesmen host Denver in another ECAC showdown. The opening faceoff is scheduled for noon.
