The Carolina Table: North Carolina Writers on Food
Randall Kenan, editor
Eno Publishers
$17.95 paperback
280 pages
November 2016
At the intersection of food and story, The Carolina Table: North Carolina Writers on Food offers a collection of food-related stories set in North Carolina, though geography is sometimes secondary to the main theme, which is food in any form: meals and manners, cooking and ingredients, recipes and recollections. Novelist Michael Parker writes about his mother's reluctant, but exclamation-point-laden food column for her husband's newspaper; Celia Rivenbark remembers her summer job at the only sit-down restaurant in her eastern Carolina hometown; chef and former vegetarian Cathy Cleary reveals what led her to sit down to a pork dinner. Bridgette Lacy celebrates mid-summer "Mater Days" in newsrooms of daily papers where she worked. Writer and goat farmer Tom Rankin writes about taking his goats to be slaughtered by a halal butcher from Afghanistan in Sanford. John McElwee takes us to the annual celebratory Blue Monday shad fry along the Cape Fear River. The collection is edited by Randall Kenan, an award-winning novelist and food writer. Some of North Carolina's favorite writers regale us with stories: Lee Smith, Daniel Wallace, Marianne Gingher, Jill McCorkle, Jaki Shelton Green, Wayne Caldwell, Marcie Cohen Ferris, Michael McFee, Zelda Lockhart, Crook's Corner's popular chef Bill Smith, noted cookbook author Nancie McDermott, and many others.

"In his novels and short stories, Randall Kenan has proved a master of place making. In The Carolina Table, he renders place through food, framing North Carolina in 'ballads to hunger' and 'hymns of satiation.' This choir sings of cheese puffs straight from the bag and pollo de la brassa straight from Peru, while connecting the Fertile Crescent of the Middle East and the Piedmont of North Carolina. Smart, inclusive, generous, and, at times, evocatively random, The Carolina Table sets a national standard for food writing collections."
—John T Edge, author of The Potlikker Papers: A Food History of the Modern South
"Read The Carolina Table and you pull up your chair to the best groaning boards in the state. Randall Kenan's choices are acute, delicious, and big-hearted. I love the family lore, the discourse on butter beans, the recipe for grape hull pie, free use of the word 'fatback,' and the elements of cleaning crab—beer, a hose, mosquitos. Most of all, I love the humor and the quirky voices of my Southern brethren."
—Frances Mayes, author of Under the Tuscan Sun and most recently Under Magnolia: A Southern Memoir
"If it's true that by knowing what we eat, we know who we are, then The Carolina Table serves us up a cultural treasury of Southern food and how to cook it, eat it and pass it down through generations. This is our Anatomy of the Culinary. Tar Heel essayists, journalists, novelists, poets, chef and critics evocatively fill the pages of The Table with reminiscences particular to them but resonate for all: how food and the inheritance of recipes construct our holiday rituals, our family reunions, our shared memories. From the region's beloved classics, like shrimp and grits, pecan pie, barbecue, and fried chicken, from the traditional products of its fisheries and farms and dairies (the crab, pork, greens and beans, and buttermilk), to today's modern local celebrity chefs and restaurants, The Carolina Table sets out an absolute banquet of a book. Have a seat and welcome to the feast."
—Michael Malone, author of Handling Sin and Four Corners of the Sky

you need to be good at reporting the right stuff. Go to the rules page on gag and learn them... then when you see stuff that breaks the rules, report it. They look very highly at your report success ratio (ive been an ubermod before, and on the moderation team for years so i know). You also need to be active, which you already seem to be. Then after a while, they may message you.53|20|0
Hmm all right :)

How come I report a lot of things (with high success rate), and am active, but never get messaged about being one?
in your case, you can message them directly and tell them that you'd like to be a mod

These ramps are great. They are lightweight, they don't shift or slide when you drive up them like the cheap plastic alternative ramps, and the two-piece version is super handy. Pretty much the ideal set-up short of a lift.

This is something I wanted to rant about for a while: event loops in programming.
This post is specifically talking about programming languages that don't have their own built-in async model, and instead left it up to the community to create their own event loop modules instead. And how most of those modules don't get along well with the others.

Someone is already developing an alternative to Detroit's business model
Expand Messages
- In 1996 or 1997, I saw a presentation by C.K. Prahalad, co-author of the book _Core Competencies of the Corporation_. He said one thing that really shook me to the bone, that companies have global customers now, but they also have global competitors.But there are other lessons as well, including those from Alexander Gerschenkron, who wrote a paper "the economic advantages of backwardness" almost 50 years ago. His point is that economies developing later have the advantage of being able to adopt the latest innovations and technologies, rather than maintaining what they have already invested in.I also read an article recently which I failed to save, which made the point that a country's "enterprise system" influences how business is conducted and the mass production-based lack of competitors nature of the automobile industry in the 1950s into the 1960s shaped the U.S. companies in ways that left them unable to compete once those conditions that supported the enterprise system changed: (1) increase in cost of oil; (2) more competitors; (3) competition that had national health and pension benefits systems in their own countries so they didn't pay out the same kinds of benefits paid out by US-based companies.Now that the economy is truly global, with global competitors as well as global customers, the nature of a country's "enterprise system" including the relationship of employees to employers is key in terms of how legacy companies are able to compete.Unfortunately, most of the US laws and contracts favor a stable state within the enterprise system and what we are dealing with is an exogenous shock to that system and an inability to respond without great pain.Even though I am a transit-walking-biking person I chill at the thought of politicians being responsible "for running" the auto companies (e.g., see the example of British Leyland). I am on the board of a public market in DC and the board holds great fealty to the legislation which sets the conditions for how the market should operate. But the legislation mandates that the situation in 1997 remain in place, and now in 2008, the market is unable to compete and respond to the latest competitive conditions. And that is for a "little" economic unit, one that generates and/or supports maybe $30 million in annual revenue.Sadly, the ability of legislation and politicians to manage enterprises successfully doesn't seem to scale well.Richard LaymanCitizens Planning CoalitionDC

While Detroit Slept
Published: December 9, 2008 http://www.nytimes. com/2008/ 12/10/opinion/ 10friedman. html?_r=1&_rAs I think about our bailing out Detroit, I can't help but reflect on what, in my view, is the most important rule of business in today's integrated and digitized global market, where knowledge and innovation tools are so widely distributed. It's this: Whatever can be done, will be done. The only question is will it be done by you or to you. Just don't think it won't be done. If you have an idea in Detroit or Tennessee, promise me that you'll pursue it, because someone in Denmark or Tel Aviv will do so a second later.
Fred R. Conrad/The New York Times
Readers shared their thoughts on this article.Why do I bring this up? Because someone in the mobility business in Denmark and Tel Aviv is already developing a real-world alternative to Detroit's business model. I don't know if this alternative to gasoline-powered cars will work, but I do know that it can be done — and Detroit isn't doing it. And therefore it will be done, and eventually, I bet, it will be done profitably.And when it is, our bailout of Detroit will be remembered as the equivalent of pouring billions of dollars of taxpayer money into the mail-order-catalogu e business on the eve of the birth of eBay. It will be remembered as pouring billions of dollars into the CD music business on the eve of the birth of the iPod and iTunes. It will be remembered as pouring billions of dollars into a book-store chain on the eve of the birth of Amazon.com and the Kindle. It will be remembered as pouring billions of dollars into improving typewriters on the eve of the birth of the PC and the Internet.What business model am I talking about? It is Shai Agassi's electric car network company, called Better Place. Just last week, the company, based in Palo Alto, Calif., announced a partnership with the state of Hawaii to road test its business plan there after already inking similar deals with Israel, Australia, the San Francisco Bay area and, yes, Denmark.The Better Place electric car charging system involves generating electrons from as much renewable energy — such as wind and solar — as possible and then feeding those clean electrons into a national electric car charging infrastructure. This consists of electricity charging spots with plug-in outlets — the first pilots were opened in Israel this week — plus battery-exchange stations all over the respective country. The whole system is then coordinated by a service control center that integrates and does the billing.Under the Better Place model, consumers can either buy or lease an electric car from the French automaker Renault or Japanese companies like Nissan (General Motors snubbed Agassi) and then buy miles on their electric car batteries from Better Place the way you now buy an Apple cellphone and the minutes from AT&T. That way Better Place, or any car company that partners with it, benefits from each mile you drive. G.M. sells cars. Better Place is selling mobility miles.The first Renault and Nissan electric cars are scheduled to hit Denmark and Israel in 2011, when the whole system should be up and running. On Tuesday, Japan's Ministry of Environment invited Better Place to join the first government-led electric car project along with Honda, Mitsubishi and Subaru. Better Place was the only foreign company invited to participate, working with Japan's leading auto companies, to build a battery swap station for electric cars in Yokohama, the Detroit of Japan.What I find exciting about Better Place is that it is building a car company off the new industrial platform of the 21st century, not the one from the 20th — the exact same way that Steve Jobs did to overturn the music business. What did Apple understand first? One, that today's technology platform would allow anyone with a computer to record music. Two, that the Internet and MP3 players would allow anyone to transfer music in digital form to anyone else. You wouldn't need CDs or record companies anymore. Apple simply took all those innovations and integrated them into a single music-generating, purchasing and listening system that completely disrupted the music business.What Agassi, the founder of Better Place, is saying is that there is a new way to generate mobility, not just music, using the same platform. It just takes the right kind of auto battery — the iPod in this story — and the right kind of national plug-in network — the iTunes store — to make the business model work for electric cars at six cents a mile. The average American is paying today around 12 cents a mile for gasoline transportation, which also adds to global warming and strengthens petro-dictators.Do not expect this innovation to come out of Detroit. Remember, in 1908, the Ford Model-T got better mileage — 25 miles per gallon — than many Ford, G.M. and Chrysler models made in 2008. But don't be surprised when it comes out of somewhere else. It can be done. It will be done. If we miss the chance to win the race for Car 2.0 because we keep mindlessly bailing out Car 1.0, there will be no one to blame more than Detroit's new shareholders: we the taxpayers.

A bronchofiberoscopy-associated outbreak of multidrug-resistant
Bacterial and fungal diseases
Bronchofiberscopy, a widely used procedure for the diagnosis of various pulmonary diseases within intensive care units, has a history of association with nosocomial infections. Between September and November 2009, an outbreak caused by multidrug-resistant
Clinical and environmental sampling, genotyping with repetitive extragenic palindromic polymerase chain reaction (REP-PCR), and case–control risk factor analysis were performed in the current study.
During the epidemic period, 12 patients were infected or colonized with MDR-Ab. Sixteen (72.7%) of twenty-two MDR-Ab isolates from the 12 patients and 22 (84.6%) of 26 MDR-Ab isolates from the bronchofiberscope and the healthcare-associated environment were clustered significantly into a major clone (outbreak MDR-Ab strain) by REP-PCR typing. Seven patients carrying the outbreak MDR-Ab strain were defined as the cases. Six of the seven cases (83%) received bronchofiberscopy versus four of the 19 controls (21%) (odds ratio, 22.5; 95% confidence interval, 2.07–244.84; P = 0.005). Several potential administrative and technical problems existed in bronchofiberscope reprocessing.
Bronchofiberscopy was associated with this MDR-Ab outbreak. Infection control precautions including appropriate bronchofiberscope reprocessing and environmental decontamination should be strengthened.
Bronchofiberscopy, the visual examination of the tracheobronchial tree using a fiberoptic bronchofiberscope, is currently an indispensable tool within ICUs. Several nosocomial infections caused by
Ethics statement
This study was approved by the institutional ethics committees of the Academy of Military Medical Sciences and 309 Hospital of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, Beijing, China. Written informed consent was obtained from all participants before the study.
The outbreak occurred in an ICU ward comprising a large open bedroom with ten beds, a buffer room, treatment room, and equipment room. Every bed was equipped with an alcohol-based hand rub. Fifteen doctors and thirty-one nurses worked in this ICU and approximately 12 nurses were on duty every day. There was only one bronchofiberscope in the ICU and bronchofiberscopy was performed once or twice each day for diverse examination and treatment indications such as corpus alienum removal, secretion clearance, tracheal intubations, and bronchoalveolar lavage. After each procedure, the bronchofiberscope was reprocessed by the professional staff in the Center for Cleaning and Disinfection of the hospital according to the Chinese guidelines for endoscopy cleaning and disinfection
Epidemiological investigation
During the epidemic period from 5th August 2009 to 30th November 2009, 153 patients were admitted to the ICU. The period from 1st January 2009 to 4th August 2009 was considered the pre-epidemic period. Medical records including paper and electronic charts were reviewed. Microbiological records were carefully analyzed to screen the cases and define the baseline MDR-Ab rate before the outbreak. Any patient who had at least one clinical or screening sample that was positive for a MDR-Ab who had the corresponding clinical symptoms (e.g., pneumonia, bacteremia, peritonitis) detected at least 48 h after ICU admission was noted. Multidrug resistance was defined as resistance to ≥3 of the following classes of antibiotics: penicillins, cephalosporins, aminoglycosides, fluoroquinolones, and carbapenems
Case–control study
The case–control study was conducted to investigate this outbreak's risk factors. Blood, urine, sputum, wound, bile, and catheter cultures were processed. A case was defined as a patient with at least one isolate identified as the outbreak MDR-Ab strain in clinical culture (outbreak strain carrier) at least 48 h after ICU admission during the period of 1st September 2009 to 31th October 2009. A control was defined as a patient who stayed ≥ 48 h in the ICU during the same period without the identification of an outbreak strain in any clinical culture
For the case–control study, the presence of primary diseases or medication history including septic shock, multiple organ failure, pulmonary diseases, renal diseases, and surgical operation was determined at the time of ICU admission. For invasive and other bedside procedures such as blood transfusion, mechanical ventilation, bedside diagnostic ultrasonography, bedside chest X-ray, bronchofiberscopy, electrocardiography, venipuncture, gastric lavage, urinary catheterization, and hemodialysis, the presence of a central line, and antibiotic use, the observation period lasted from ICU admission to outbreak strain detection for the cases and from ICU admission to patient discharge for the controls. ICU stay and hospital stay were defined as the length of stay until outbreak strain detection for the cases, whereas they were defined as the length of stay until patient discharge in the controls.
Microbiological methods
Swabs from environmental samples and healthcare workers were inoculated on blood plates. Colonies resembling
Three major interventions were implemented on 21st October 2009. First, the bronchofiberscope reprocessing by doctors within the ICU was stopped and the bronchofiberscope was sent to the Center for Cleaning and Disinfection of the hospital for professional reprocessing. Another one or two bronchofiberscopes were prepared for use in emergent situations in the ICU. Second, surveillance culturing for MDR microorganisms from the bronchofiberscope was performed regularly after every reprocessing round. Third, the ICU environmental surfaces were cleaned thoroughly and disinfected with a solution containing electrolyzed acid water according to the manufacturer's instructions. Fourth, education and training were enhanced for endoscopy reprocessing and general infection control procedures in this ICU. In addition, to investigate the effect of hand hygiene on this outbreak, healthcare workers' hand hygiene compliance was observed as described previously
Statistical analysis
Statistical analyses were performed using SAS software (version 8.1; SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC, USA). The Chi-square test was used to compare the differences of MDR-Ab incidences between the pre-epidemic and epidemic periods. In the case–control study, cases and controls were compared using the Mann–Whitney
Epidemiological investigation
Three patients acquired MDR-Ab infection or colonization (MDR-Ab carriers) in the ICU during the pre-epidemic period. A total of 12 patients (seven males and five females ages 39–97) were identified as MDR-Ab carriers at least 48 h after ICU admission from 5th August to 30th November 2009 (Figure

The patients had a variety of underlying conditions, including septic shock, organ transplantation, malignant tumor, respiratory failure, acute pancreatitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, and coronary heart disease. Seven of the 12 patients were identified when they were staying in beds 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, and 8 (Figure

A total of 22 MDR-Ab isolates were available from seven patients who underwent bronchofiberscopy and from four patients who did not undergo bronchofiberscopy. All of the MDR-Ab isolates were completely resistant to cefuroxime, cefotaxime, imipenem, and levofloxacin but were susceptible to colistin. REP-PCR analysis revealed that 16 MDR-Ab isolates from six patients who received bronchofiberscopy shared an identical outbreak strain of MDR-Ab (genotype A) that differed from the isolates (genotypes C, D, G) obtained from three of the patients who did not undergo bronchofiberscopy (Figure
Figure 4
Cluster analysis of multidrug-resistant
Cluster analysis of multidrug-resistant
Environmental sampling showed that 26 MDR-Ab isolates were identified from 78 environmental samples on 15th October 2009, whereas no MDR-Ab isolates were detected in the later environmental samples on 21th and 28th October 2009. A total of 22 of 26 MDR-Ab isolates (84.6%) were identical to the outbreak strain. Of these 22 isolates, four were recovered from the biopsy forceps and the bronchofiberscope tip that were used to treat a patient carrying the outbreak strain and from the bronchofiberscope surface after reprocessing within the ICU. Of the 22 isolates, 13 were recovered from the bed sheets, bedrails, dispensing table, and invigilator or blood filtering machine keyboard of beds 1–3 and 6–8, findings that were in line with the distribution of the outbreak strains within the patients. Five of 22 isolates were detected in the scrub sink, the medical treatment room, and the nurses' notebook, desk, and calculator (Figure
Further investigation disclosed several potential administrative and technical problems in the bronchofiberscope reprocessing protocol. First, from the end of July 2009, bronchofiberscope was frequently reprocessed in the ICU by doctors after emergent patient examinations and treatments. Second, the bronchofiberscope reprocessing procedure was not strictly in accordance with the Chinese guidelines for endoscopy cleaning and disinfection
Case–control study
The cases and controls were similar with respect to age, sex, and hospital length of stay (Table
After the intervention on 21st October 2009, the cases decreased gradually and no further evidence of the outbreak strain was detected in December 2009 or January 2010. Follow-up ICU environmental surface cultures were processed monthly for 6 months after February 2010 and none grew MDR-Ab.
Although MDR-Ab is emerging more frequently in Chinese hospitals,
In this study, genotype A MDR-Ab was defined as the outbreak strain. During the epidemic period, seven of 12 patients were infected or colonized with the outbreak strain, which was also isolated from multiple environmental surfaces within the ICU. Only one patient acquired the outbreak strain without direct bronchofiberscope exposure. Two patients were infected or colonized with MDR-Ab after intervention on 21st October, one of whom had undergone bronchofiberscopy; however, these 2 MDR-Ab isolates were not identified as the outbreak strain, so the intervention definitely controlled the outbreak.
A similar large outbreak due to clonal MDR-Ab transmission has been reported, and widespread environmental contamination was perhaps promoted by the aerosolization of organisms during the pulsatile lavage debridement of infected wounds
Importantly, four isolates collected directly from the non-disinfected and disinfected bronchofiberscope were also identified as being the outbreak strain, suggesting that serious failure of the bronchofiberscope reprocessing procedure and that the outbreak strain of MDR-Ab might have been transmitted through direct contact with the bronchofiberscope. Alternatively, these organisms could have been introduced into the environment by the index case or possibly by an unidentified patient and then transmitted through healthcare workers' hands during other medical procedures; however, we did not identify the index case who "imported" the outbreak strain into the ICU, and no similar case was reported in other wards of the hospital.
In our investigation, most of the environmental MDR-Ab were isolated from the healthcare-associated environmental surfaces including the bed sheets, bedrails, dispensing table, nurses' desk, and outer surface of the invigilator. There were no positive cultures collected from the healthcare workers' hands or nasal cavities (data not shown), a finding that might be associated with high hand hygiene compliance rates during the investigation since all of the healthcare workers were concerned about the probable correlation between personnel contact and this MDR-Ab outbreak.
In addition to bronchofiberscopy treatment, univariate analysis of the case–control study showed that septic shock and renal disease were more common in the cases than in the controls. Similar results were also found that the underlying patient illness severity was a significant factor contributing to the acquisition of carbapenem-resistant
Bronchofiberscopy is used frequently within ICUs. Our findings emphasize that bronchofiberscopy must be performed with appropriate infection control measures. The present outbreak was not associated with bronchofiberscope defects or damage
This outbreak was clinically significant due to the extensive antibiotic resistance of
The results of this case–control study demonstrated an association among factors but could not make a conclusion about causality. Further studies of similar outbreaks are needed to confirm these results. However, a strong association between bronchofiberscopy and MDR-Ab acquisition was confirmed by the epidemiologic and microbiologic analyses conducted during the outbreak.

"Bread and Circuses" is well executed and has a nice premise, but it's underused and the whole affair is just plain old Trek. Nothing exciting, nothing different… just a highlight reel of writer crutches.

In yet another sign that online has become a dominant force of modern advertising, Clickz have just compiled some data indicating that Obama spent at least $3.47 million on online advertising between January and April this year. The biggest recipient of this money was Google who took over 82 percent of the total money spent.
One of the highest spending months was February this year, with around 1.9 million paid to online advertising companies. A breakdown of the expenditure is below:
As you can see a majority of the money went to Google, with other advertising networks such as Yahoo, Pulse360, AOL owned Quigo and Microsoft taking a large share. Facebook was the largest of the social sites taking around $9,000 in advertising revenue.
The Clickz article notes that Obama's team has shifted a lot of their budget towards performance based media, with donations and votes in mind. All of the top spending media firms offer cost-per-action programs which make it accountable and easier to measure the campaign success.
While the majority was spent on the above mediums, some influential blogs and websites also received healthy contributions over the period with Politico taking $36,000, CNN.com $24,000, and Gothamist ($2,800). These were most likely CPM (cost per thousand) based ads.
Politicians are just another industry that have recognized the power of online advertising in driving new donations and votes for their campaigns. If you're thinking of getting involved but don't know where to start, check our out fully managed Easy Search Advertising program.

Protestors take to the streets outside of LAPD HQ (Video)
A crowd of hundreds formed outside the Los Angeles Police Administration Building before marching through downtown streets in protest against police shootings in Los Angeles and Missouri.
The rally formed in the mid-afternoon and started marching north on Spring Street in the middle of the street about 3:15 p.m.
The crowd moved to Alameda Street outside Union Station to Chinatown and Little Tokyo, according to Cmdr. Andy Smith of the Los Angeles Police Department.
Typically, permits are required for protesting in the street, but traffic was light and officers on bikes were able to close off some intersections, he said.
``It was a very, very vocal crowd and a very angry crowd, but peaceful,'' Smith said. ``They were respectful of private property.''
The protest was motivated by recent officer-involved shooting deaths of young black men.
On Monday, police shot and killed Ezell Ford, 25, after he allegedly struggled with two officers in South Los Angeles.

|[Db-derby Wiki] Update of "ProtocolDebuggingTips" by KatheyMarsden
|Tue, 11 Oct 2005 18:01:55 GMT
Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Db-derby Wiki" for change notification. The following page has been changed by KatheyMarsden: http://wiki.apache.org/db-derby/ProtocolDebuggingTips New page: Derby Network Server and client use an the Distributed Relational Database Architecture protocol standard which is available for pubic download from http://www.opengroup.org/dbiop/ . The specification consists of three documents. * C043 DRDA V3 Vol. 1: Distributed Relational Database Architecture Describes protocol flows between server and client. * C044 DRDA V3 Vol. 2: Formatted Data Object Content Architecture Describes data representation for different environments * C045 DRDA V3 Vol. 3: Distributed Data Management Architecture Describes the commands, objects and parameters that are used in the protocol flow described in volume 1. When there is some sort of violation of the protocol, the server or client will throw a protocol error which might look something like this: Execution failed because of a Distributed Protocol Error: DRDA_Proto_SYNTAXRM; CODPNT arg = 2114; Error Code Value = e This type of error is usually indicative of a bug in Derby. All expected exceptions should throw SQLExceptions and not protocol errors. == Understanding DRDA == Before debugging the failure it is good to have a general understanding of DRDA. The specs are very large and can be somewhat intimidating, but Chapter 4 of Volume 1 is an excellent place to get a good overview of the protocol flow. Volume 3 is a reference for the code points (protocol token's) that are exchanged in the flow. Each Codepoint has an integer value. Appendix B has a table the term names sorted by codepoint that can be very helpful. These values can be found in the Codepoint.java files in server and client. == Types of Protocol Errors == === SYNTAXRM - Data Stream Sytax error === Typically protocol errors are manifested by a SYNTAXRM command response being sent by server or client. The error will show the code point of the object causing the error. The stack trace will usually display the context of the protocol flow and whether the failure was because a code point was missing, an invalid codepoint was sent etc. So, for example in the stack trace for DERBY-614 we see that the server was parsing a CNTQRY and found that it was missing a required codepoint, x2114. A first pass might be to look at the CNTQRY command in the DDM Manual to see what is required and appendix B to see what 2114 is. One thing to consider is that often if there is an error in exchanging protocol where things get off by a byte or two the code point value specified with SYNTAXRM may have no meaning and may just be the next 2 out of order bytes in the stream. == Protocol Tracing == There are three tracing options that can be set to assist with debugging protocol errors. === Client Tracing === Use the [http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.1/adminguide/cadminappsclienttracing.html traceFile] or traceDirectory connection attributes to specify trace output files. If you are debugging protocol with multiple connections use traceDirectory instead of traceFile. The client side tracing shows the protocol flow in the context of the jdbc calls so is probably the best choice for tracing. === Server Tracing === There is also server side tracing available by setting the [ http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.1/adminguide/radminconfig.html derby.drda.traceAll] and [http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.1/adminguide/radminconfigdb2jdrdatracedirectory.html derby.drda.traceDirectory] properties. The server side tracing shows just the protocol and is usually only useful if a message for some reason is getting lost between the server and client. === Server SanityManager.DEBUG Output === With a sane build, you can set the derby property, derby.drda.debug=true. Thise will produce debug output on the server console which can be helpful in debugging protocol issues. This property also launches a thread which will print periodic memory usage information for the server jvm, so can be useful in debugging memory leaks as well. == Useful Links == Protocol Specifications - http://www.opengroup.org/dbiop/ Server admin guide - http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.1/adminguide/

I think I'm over garden shows and display gardens. There, I've said it. Fortunately there is a new alternative.
When I attend garden shows, it's mainly for the display gardens. I must say, I have enjoyed them, but when all is said and done, they are little more than a sugar hit, not very lasting. I'm not alone it seems. To fill the void, some enterprising and generous garden luminaries have invented the "garden fest", a realistic alternative to the sometimes shallow world of display gardens.

We were all sort of knocked silly when Dallara first launched the DW12, given the ugliness of the car. and in doing so, we all overlooked one of the bigger features of the car. The DW12 was built under the ICONIC project, with Dallara offering two different bodykits: one for road racing, and one for speedway racing. We've seen the road course configuration, but not much has been made of the oval package. Until now. SPEED TV have gotten their hands on photos of testing at Indianapolis, and the car looks much better:

Speak for yourself. I think it looks brilliant in both configurations.
5th April 2012, 12:20 at 12:20 pm
The oval aero package is quite different. I love the view from the front of the car. From the side the wing assembly looks incredibly low. It does have a Batmobile look to it. More images here. http://www.racer.com/indycar-teams-comfortable-with-progress-following-indianapolis-test/article/235248/

That rear wing looks great, particularly in the colours on the 26 car (Andretti?) Why can't F1 have one like that?
5th April 2012, 14:45 at 2:45 pm
Can't say I like the batmobile wings from the side, but the rear wing does look pretty awesome with how low and wide it is.
5th April 2012, 23:56 at 11:56 pm
I still don't like this car. Looks more of a Le Mans racer from behind than a Formula car. And the sidepods are wrong.
It looks massive. Hate it, but that's my opinion anyway!
6th April 2012, 0:18 at 12:18 am
I don't find it extremely pretty, it has to be said. But I can't hate it either. Definitely better looking than the road racing package.
6th April 2012, 1:52 at 1:52 am
I think they look quite good in both road course and oval aero configurations. They're definitely not as ugly as the current stepped nose F1 cars.
Obviously the rear wheel guards are different, but the goal is to keep the cars from taking flight at hyper speed on ovals. Also, the guards are eliminating needless punctures from rear contact.
6th April 2012, 19:40 at 7:40 pm
It looks totally bizarre, but also quite good at the same time (if that makes sense). Looking forward to seeing it in motion.

The shot from the front definitely looks a lot better, but it's still a long way from being not ugly.
The bit from the cockpit right up to the tip of the nose looks bloated and awful in my opinion, and the sidepods are still ugly. I can't see the DW-12 growing on me, unfortunately! But it's safer which is a very good thing and I can put up with the ugliness if it's going to mean less injuries.
9th April 2012, 5:00 at 5:00 am
@damonsmedly – It's probably not helped by that National Guard livery, which has to be one of the worst I've ever seen.

Scientologist Louisa Hodkin took her fight to the court after a High Court judge ruled that services run by Scientologists were not "acts of worship".
Five Supreme Court justices analysed the case at a hearing in London in July and ruled in her favour today, announcing that the Scientology church was a "place of meeting for religious worship".
Miss Hodkin wants to marry fiance Alessandro Calcioli in a Church of Scientology in central London.
She took legal action after the registrar general of births, deaths and marriages refused to register the London Church Chapel for the solemnisation of marriages under the 1855 Places of Worship Registration Act - because it was not a place for "religious worship".
Supreme Court justices said religion should not be confined to faiths involving a "supreme deity".
They unanimously allowed Miss Hodkin's appeal against the High Court ruling.
Miss Hodkin said she hope to get married to Mr Calcioli in the next few months.
She: "I am really excited. I'm really glad we are finally being treated equally and can now get married in our church."
Mr Calcioli added: "I think the court's definition of religion is excellent. I think it's what most people today would understand 'religion' to be."
But local government minister Brandon Lewis said his department would now take legal advice following the ruling over concerns about religious exemption from business rates for Scientology premises.
He said: "Hard-pressed taxpayers will wonder why Scientology premises should now be given tax cuts when local firms have to pay their fair share."
In 1970 the Church of Scientology launched a similar case.
Then the Court of Appeal ruled that Scientology did not involve religious worship because there was no "veneration of God or of a Supreme Being".

G&G Arran in Vintage Rioja Calf...DG70 - D Narrow Fit
Posted by Nick Anderson on November 11, 2012
Hi Nick,
I received Arran last Friday. Thank you very much for your kindness.
Arran is beautiful and glamorous as well as Grant I had purchased.
The last used for 8.5D GG shoes is most comfortable last for me rather than Berluti, John Lobb and Crockett & Jones' last.
I think suitable last is significantly important to wear shoes for long time.
So, I will purchase GG shoes again.
Thank you very much for your careful delivery services.
Kind regards,
Natsuki (Japan)

Dubai, Nov 19: Australia start their quest for regaining the Ashes against England from Nov 21 in Brisbane with one eye also on the ICC Test team rankings.
Australia are currently ranked fifth with 101 points while England are third, 15 ahead. Australia can return to the top four by leapfrogging Pakistan if they manage to draw or win the Ashes series. They can also move ahead of England to third spot if they win the series 4-0 or better.
For England, the series offers an opportunity to reclaim the No.2 ranking they held till India moved ahead last week following their 2-0 win over the West Indies. However, to make that happen, England will have to win the Ashes series by 4-0 or better.

It's that time of year. The slow pace of summer is gone and we are in full swing of back to school and soccer season! While I love this time of year, I have noticed this year has been a bit more stressful for my son Michael. I love finding ways to help him to relax. It is a lot of pressure to be in third grade and a soccer player!! Since the start of summer, he has had three practices a week. Now he is at three days of practice, one day clinic, and a game every week!! That is a lot of pressure on a kid — plus there's the stress of school work.
I love shopping at Rite Aid for everything I need! I was so excited to find Nature's Truth Essential Oils and a mini diffuser in the vitamin aisle! I chose to pick up the essential oil lavender to help him relax with soccer and at home! To pair up with my essential oil, I picked up a mini diffuser that plugs right into the wall to run before bed. How easy is that??
I am fairly new to essential oils, so I was excited when my girlfriend gave me the idea for a rice pillow to throw in his soccer bag. It has been fairly easy to tell that while his team has been doing great, he is feeling the pressure of the game and practice schedule!! I had no idea that lavender essential oils are so beneficial to help someone relax and stay calm. I took off to the craft store with Kylie, my oldest, to pick out material. She was so excited to be the one to hand-sew the pillow as well, so it was a win-win for me!!
DIY Rice Pillow Supplies:
- Fabric (We got black so it wouldn't show dirt when he is touching it after playing on the field)
- Needles
- Thread
- White rice
- Nature's Truth Essential Oils Lavender
- Sewing machine (Optional)
DIY Rice Pillow Directions:
- Cut your fabric to double the size of the pillow you want. (I did a larger pillow so we could layer it with his uniforms to help spread the lavender scent for game time.)
- Fold the fabric in half with the inside out. This will form an edge.
- Pin around the three open ends. (We used needles for this. You can use pins, but for some reason, I could not find mine that night.)
- Sew the sides, leaving a small opening in one corner. Unpin it and flip it right side out.
- Pour in rice for filling, then sew up the small opening you left to close to it completely.
- Put the desired amount of drops of Nature's Truth Essential Oils Lavender onto the outside of the pillow and stick in the pillow in your bag.
How easy is this to make??
What do you do to help your soccer player relax? Head on over → here for more great ideas to incorporate Nature's Truth Essential Oils into your life and be sure to grab this $1 Stimulate The Senses Coupon → here!!

Blood and liver samples were collected from sea otters in oiled and unoiled sections of Prince William Sound to monitor health and blood cytochrome P450 1A (CYP1A) biomarker values. Sea otters in oiled areas had higher CYP1A levels and their livers were generally swollen and pale in color. However, the incidence of histopathological lesions of the liver were similar in samples from both areas.

Status: Active Town
Date Settled: 1870's
Current Population: 250
Peak Population: ~1,500
Elevation: 5,364 Feet (1,635 meters)
Primary Mineral: Gold
State: Montana
Gallery: View 18 Basin, Montana Photos
The town of Basin began as a 19th century mining camp near the confluence of Basin Creek with the Boulder River. Gold deposits at the mouth of Cataract Creek, about half a mile downstream of Basin were reported as early as 1862. Prospectors staked claims and built cabins, and within a few years placer mining extended the full lengths of Cataract and Basin Creeks. When a settlement was established in Basin, the buildings at the mouth of Cataract Creek were gradually moved to Basin, and the Cataract camp was abandoned.
Searches for the lode veins on both creeks succeeded by the 1870s and eventually led to significant lode mining at the Eva May, Uncle Sam, Grey Eagle, Hattie Ferguson, and Comet mines in the Cataract Creek district and the Bullion, Hope, and Katy mines in the Basin Creek district. By 1880, the settlement at Basin became the local source of supplies for mines and miners.
A mine is a hole in the ground, owned by a liar.

The Cairo Conference on Palestine
" Reconstructing Gaza"
Cairo, 12th October, 2014
The Governments of Egypt and Norway , together with President Mahmoud Abbas will host a conference on Palestine, entitled: The Cairo International Conference on Palestine "Reconstructing Gaza", which will be held in Cairo on 12th October, 2014.
The latest Israeli war on Gaza resulted in tremendous losses, And there is no doubt that providing political and economic support to achieve stability in Palestinian Territories, should take into account the necessity of " reconstructing gaza " and implementing UNSC resolution 1860 as well as Cairo ceasefire understandings, and removal of Israeli restrictions on the entry of goods to Gaza Strip.
The goal of the conference is to strengthen the basis of the ceasefire and improving political solution prospects for the conflict through:
(i) Strengthening the Palestinian government's ability to assume its responsibility in the rehabilitation of Gaza Strip.
(ii) Enhancing the existing UN mechanism for import and export of goods and materials to and from Gaza.
(iii) Providing the financial support required for reconstructing Gaza Strip.
The Government of Palestine, in coordination with the World Bank, will present assessments which include the strip requirements, and plans for reconstruction for the coming five years. In this regard, participating countries should declare the value of their financial pledges during the conference.
The conference will be held at foreign ministers level in Cairo, on 12th of October from 09:00 to 19:00.
Important Information:
1- Please fill out the form located inside the pledges guide and provide the general coordinator with a copy either through an official memo or email it directly through the conference email address.
2- Pins & Badges will be received from the registration center at the lobby of JW Marriott hotel starting from 10 October 2014, as follows:
3- The official email of the conference: firstname.lastname@example.com
