With the introduction of our new line of Brewmaster EditionChronicalFermenters, we are compiling this guide to highlight new features, compare and contrast equipment selections, and draw parallels between our standardChronicalline. This guide should boost your comfort level with utilizing the new features included in the Brewmaster line, but also solidify your purchase decision so that you ultimately buy the vessel that fits your own individual needs and budget.
At first glance, most consumers immediately notice that we have opted to swap the standard line's tri- clamp (TC) ball valve for a TC butterfly valve. While both valves excel at liquid tight connections and ease of use, we opted for sanitary butterfly valves on the Brewmaster line for their zero dead-space design. Dead space inside a valve can sometimes harbor yeast or bacteria that can ultimately affect the quality of the fermenting beer in the absence of a strict cleaning regimen. Butterfly valves can be easily sanitized through regular brewery PBW/Starsan cleaning preparation without disassembling the valve body. This saves time and provides an additional level of safety against infection.
The downside to butterfly valves is that they are very expensive to manufacture, and require an abundance of precision machining to work effectively. With regular cleaning, the ball valves on our standard line will provide many years of trouble free use, yet commercial cellar installations are typically outfitted with butterfly valves for this one key features. Our commercial duty in-house designed butterfly valves include a stainless pull trigger, and can be easily fitted to any 1.5" TC connection.
Lastly, we have found that pro-users check gravity and sample their fermenting beer often, which is why we have added a small 3/8" ball valve for this very purpose. The sampling valve is situated to the right of the main valves and sits well above the yeast or trub layer to provide the user with a clean sample of their precious concoction. Our standard line does not include a sampling valve.
The next most obvious change to the exterior of theChronicalis the large 3" ferule sanitary welded to the top of the included domed lid. While our standard line includes a 1.5" ferule, the additional size provided by the 3" opening allows for a few unique uses.
The first being the attachment of a clean-in-place (CIP) spray ball, which when hooked up to a high pressure pump can evenly distribute caustics such as PBW to easily clean the vessel post-fermentation. This facilitates fewer man hours wasted on manually cleaning the fermenter, enabling faster vessel turn times, and intermingling directly with an existing CIP installation.
Secondarily, it allows users to utilize our stainless steel blow-off cane, which in turn makes rigging a floor sitting blow-off assembly quick, sanitary, and easy.
Lastly, the larger opening allows users to easily add ingredients to fermenting beers without breaking the lid seal and losing the blanket of C02 which rests on top of the beer post primary fermentation. Users can easily dry hop, add fruit, or adjuncts such as Belgian Candi Syrup.
The 3" ferule will also retain all of the standard series' abilities including pressurized transfers, standard barb/tubing blow-off assembly. For users that have an abundance of 1.5" TC accessories, we will be offering a 3" to 1/5" TC reducer to support legacy and standard seriesChronicalequipment.
Chiller Coil and Jacket
While not immediately apparent from the outside of the fermenter, we have responded to user feedback and vertically mounted the chill coil inside the main body of the conical in our Brewmaster Edition. This new design efficiency enables better fluid contact with the fermenting beer, and places the coil directly in the center mass of the vessel. Furthermore, it allows users to retain the use of their domed lid while operating the unit alongside an FTSs. The domed lid provides additional headspace and allows users the ability to add TC fittings to the unit's lid mounted ferule.
Users should keep in mind that the Brewmaster was designed primarily to control temps with the included chill coil, while our standard series allows users to place the unit inside a temperature controlled space, such as a refrigerator, without the need for an FTSs kit. If an FTSs kit is desired, our standard series utilizes a flat lid, and lid mounted chill coil.
Lastly, because we understand that pro users want flexibility, we included the coil and exterior neoprene jacket but purposefully excluded the pump and controller in case the vessel will ultimately be part of a larger glycol system or intermingled with existing consumer owned equipment. However, we will be offering a completion kit to Brewmaster users with just the pump and controller if a complete FTSs solution is needed.
Conversely, our standard series does not include any temperature control equipment included in the base price of the fermenter for cost competitiveness. An FTSs kit can be purchased separately with all of the parts necessary to maintain temperatures within the fermenter.
In the coming months we will be introducing several new FTSs options for both heating and cooling our Brewmaster and Standard Edition Chronicles. We are designing the FTSS line to adapt to virtually any fermentation temperature stabilization needs, and comingle seamlessly with the equipment of both the Standard and Brewmaster Editions.
User-Installed Upgrade Options
One of the key tenants ingrained in our DNA at Ss Brewing Technologies is to never leave a fellow brewer behind, which is why we will be offering butterfly valves, sampling valves, chill coil retrofit options, and 3" ferule lids as add-on user-installed accessories. We have done this so that if a legacy user values one particular aspect of our Brewmaster series above another they can simply upgrade just a element instead of purchasing another complete fermenter. This provides a cost effective way for users to begin with our standard line, then upgrade as they grow their brewing skills and need a more advanced equipment configuration.

An interesting snippet emerged while I was having lunch with Masayuki Kozuka, who heads up R&D for Panasonic's Media and Content Alliance office. He confided that PHL (aka Panasonic Hollywood Laboratories), the power house behind the development of the Blu-ray 3D specification was currently working on an optimized version of the MPEG4 AVC High Profile codec specifically for SD card.
"We are tuning AVC High Profile for use on SD cards," he told me. "The idea is to deliver the best possible picture quality on SD card." His inference was that films could be released in a memory card format as well as BD and DVD. "It's a bit like Digital Copy," he added. "Of course we prefer to promote the Blu-ray format, but we think its important to keep compatibility across media. So we are talking to studios at the moment. They are interested…"
Coincidentally, this comes a few weeks after Japanese solid state specialist Hagiwara released the Michael Jackson documentary This is It on a 2GB USB flash memory and a 1GB micro SD card, for the Japanese market only. The former was called a PC Edition, and was encoded in WMV at 720×406 resolution. The SD card Mobile Edition is intended for use in mobile phones.
Films have turned up on various solid state drives over the past few years, usually as part of a promotion, but there's been no coherent attempt to distribute movies in a high-quality video format on memory cards by the Hollywood studios. Could that be about to change? It would be a curious development given the push toward streaming, but there is certainly no shortage of display devices that an SD movie card could be plugged into. Watch this space.

Heroic Iraqi Refugee On His Deathbed As Family Struggles to Obtain Temporary Visas to Be At His Side
Houston's Iraqi refugee community is saying a painful goodbye to one of its most valued members. Now Marwan Hamza's friends are scrambling to help his family do the same.
Hamza, 22, is on his deathbed at Memorial Herman hospital after crashing his car earlier this week. Hamza's work with U.S. troops in Iraq forced him to flee alone for a refugee camp in Ankara, Turkey. There he used his nearly flawless English to help with security and translation at a refugee support organization, whose founder wrote him a recommendation letter when he left for the United States.
"I have never met a refugee with this kind of attitude, who willingly and positvely offered help with no expectation of anything in return," the letter reads.
Hamza also received a certificate of appreciation from the 58th Infantry Brigade Combat Team.

He continued to help fellow refugees after arriving in Houston this January, according to Dario Lipovac, the resettlement director at the local office of YMCA International, which oversaw Hamza's transition. He did everything from translating during airport pick-ups to bailing people out of jail.
"Nothing was too hard for him," Lipovac says. "Everyone loved that kid."
Hamza's family would need a temporary visa in order to visit. Lipovac has spoken with the family but has not been able to reach the U.S. embassy in Baghdad. YMCA International has contacted Congressman Al Green's office about the visa. The case worker handling the request says she expects an answer from the State Department by the end of the day.

This invention relates generally to pipe handling devices, and particularly to a new and improved pressure actuated pipe clamp that is adapted to hold and support various types of pipe joints as they are being installed in a well.
To handle tubular products such as flush joint pipe and drill collars at the floor of a drilling rig, a clamp apparatus is employed that provides one or more shoulders by which the pipe can be elevated and lowered. One mechanical device that has been used includes hinged slips which surround the pipe and grasp the same, and a latch structure providing a gate which is opened to position the clamp around the pipe and closed to lock the clamp in place. The latch structure includes a long bolt having a thrust washer slidable thereon so that it can be positioned against the arms of the latch, and an adjusting nut that is threaded on the outer end of the bolt adjacent the washer. After positioning the assembly of linked slips around the pipe, the gate is closed by pivoting the bolt to position the thrust washer and nut in alignment with the latch arms. Then the nut is tightened by hand using a large wrench, and a sledge hammer, to bring the washer up tightly against the latch arms to close the gate and create hoop stresses that cause the slips to grip the pipe. An example of this type of device is shown on p. 8426 of the "1982-83 Composite Catalog of Oilfield Equipment and Services" published by World Oil.
Although this device has been used for some time, there are many dangers inherent in hand operation of most any device that is used on a rig floor to handle heavy masses. If the gate is not properly closed, latched and tightened, the pipe can be dropped and cause serious injury, particularly to a worker who is near the area by virtue of having manually positioned and closed the clamp.
The general object of this invention is to provide a new and improved clamp apparatus for handling tubular products in a safe and reliable manner.
This and other objects are attained in accordance with the concepts of the present invention though the provision of a pipe handling clamp apparatus comprising a plurality of circumferentially spaced gripping members pivoted to one another and adapted to encircle and grip the pipe to prevent axial movement thereof. A pair of adjacent gripping members are not connected to provide a gate which can be opened to position the assembly around the pipe, and closed to cause the members to grip the pipe. An opening and closing means for the gate includes a rod pivotally secured to one of the adjacent gripping members and carrying a piston on its outer end. A cylinder receives the piston with the rod extending through the inner end thereof, and a thrust member is mounted outside the inner end of the cylinder. The thrust member is shaped to abut outer surfaces of a pair of latch arms that are pivotally connected to the other of the adjacent gripping members. Pressure connections are provided on the cylinder to communicate with the respective regions on opposite sides of the piston. A relatively low pressure is applied continuously to the outer face of the piston to produce an actuating force that tends to move the cylinder and the thrust member away from the latch arms and open the gate. Relatively high pressure is selectively applied to the inner face of the piston and the inner end of the cylinder to produce a resultant force that tends to close the apparatus. As this last-mentioned pressure is reduced, eventually the opening pressure will predominate so that the latch automatically opens. The pressures can be applied from a remote control station so that the apparatus is operated without anyone being near the clamp during closing and opening thereof. A new and improved method of operating a pipe handling clamp also is within the scope of this invention.
The present invention has other objects, features and advantages that will become more clearly apparent in connection with the following detailed description of a preferred embodiment, taken in connection with the appended drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a top one-half view of the clamp apparatus of the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view on line 2--2 of FIG. 1; and
FIG. 3 is side view of the clamp apparatus of the present invention.
Referring initially to FIG. 1, a pipe handling clamp assembly 10 that is constructed in accordance with this invention includes a generally circular series of carrier bodies 11 on which slip segments 20 are mounted. The carrier bodies 11 are mounted on pairs of upper and lower links 12,13 that are coupled by pivot pins 14 in a chain-like manner. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, each carrier body 11 has a T-shaped slot 16 that is formed longitudinally of its inner side, and a companion configuration 17 on the back side of each slip segment 20 fits into the slot in a manner such that the slip segment can move vertically to a limited extent. Upward movement of each slip segment 20 with respect to its carrier body 11 is limited by a pin 21 that extends across the top of the slip, and downward movement is limited by engagement with a shoulder 21 below the slip segment. Another pin 23, such as a colter pin, is provided to connect the rear portion 19 of each body 11 to the mid-portion of a respective pair of links 12,13 in a manner such that a limited amount of angular play is possible. This enables the slip segments 20 to conform to the shape of the pipe 9 and fit closely against its outer surface.
Each slip element 20 has vertically spaced, upwardly facing serrations or teeth 26 on its inner surface that can bite into and grip the outer surface of the pipe 9. A rear surface portion 24 of each slip segment 20 is inclined downward and inward, and cooperates with a companion inclined surface 24' on the carrier body 11 to provide a self-tightening effect in response to opposite relative movement. Suitable handles (not shown) can be used in place of an adjacent pair of the pins 14 on each side of the assembly 10 to provide a means by which the clamp assembly and the pipe can be elevated. In the event the pipe 9 is being snubbed into a well under pressure, the assembly is inverted and pulled downward.
A gate region 23 as shown in FIG. 1 is provided between the two adjacent carrier bodies 22,22'. The right side carrier body 22 is mounted on a pair of links 28, and the left side carrier body 22' is mounted on a pair of latch arms 25,25'. The links 28 are connected by a pin 36 to an eye coupler 37 on the outer end of an elongated piston rod 30. A thrust member 32 having a convex curved outer surface 33 is mounted on the rod 30 adjacent the cylinder head 61, and its outer surface is shaped to engage the concave curved surfaces 34 on the outer sides of the latch arms 35,35'. The thrust member 32 is generally rectangular in shape, and can be a separate piece that is slidable relative along the rod 30, or it can be rigidly attached to the cylinder head 61. The outer wall 41 of the thrust member 32 is planar, and is arranged to engage the outer wall of the inner cylinder head 61 of an assembly indicated generally at 43.
The cylinder assembly 43 includes a tubular barrel 44 having the head 61 secured its inner end and its outer end secured to a cylinder head 62. A piston 46 that is connected to the outer end of the rod 30 carries seal rings 47 and works in the barrel 44 in a manner such that the interior of the cylinder is divided into an outer region 50 and an inner region 51. The region 50 is communicated to a source of air under pressure by a port and connection 52, and the inner region 51 is communicated with a source of hydraulic fluid and pressure by a port and connection 53. A three-way valve 54 can have the outlet connected to the port 53 to control the direction of fluid flow, having an inlet, a discharge, and an outlet.
For use in carrying the clamp assembly 10, a handle indicated generally at 70 in FIG. 3 can be provided. The handle 70 includes a tubular hand grip 71 having transverse walls 72,73 at its opposite ends. The walls 72,73 have depending legs 74,75 that are fixed to the opposite sides of the respective cylinder heads 61,62 by cap screws or the like. If desired, the handle 70 can be made shorter and extend from the outer head 62 to a point on the barrel 44 short of the inner head 61 for convenience in making pressure connections.
In use, the clamp assembly 10 is positioned around the pipe with the rod 30 and the cylinder 43 swung outward to the open position, and then these elements are pivoted inward to the closed position where the thrust member 32 and the cylinder are generally aligned with the thrust surfaces 30 of the latch arms 25,25'. The pressure connection 53 is connected by a line to the control valve 54, and the region 50 is pressurized to a proper low pressure level by a suitable source. Either air or nitrogen can be used, and is pressurized to a relatively low value, for example about 20-50 psi, such pressure generates a constant force equal to that pressure times the cross-sectioned area of the piston 46 which tends to move the barrel 42 and the rod 30 in opposite directions to open the assembly, and hold it open. When the gate closure is latched, hydraulic pressure, for example up to about 1,500 psi, is applied to the region 51 which creates a net closing force that is the product of the hydraulic pressure and the difference in cross-sectional areas of the piston 46 and the rod 30, minus the opening force due to air or nitrogen pressure acting on the outer face of the piston 46. With the thrust member 32 engaging the surfaces 34 of the latch arms 25,25' the resultant closing force drives the cylinder 43 and the thrust member 32 inward while pulling the rod 30 outward. This pulls the slip segments 20 tightly against the outer surface of the pipe 9.
To release the clamp assembly 10, the valve 54 is opened to bleed off hydraulic pressure from the region 51. At a point shortly prior to the time the hydraulic pressure is completely bled off, the pneumatic pressure in the region 50 will predominate, and the cylinder head 41 and the thrust member 32 will automatically be moved out of engagement with the latch arms 25,25' so that the gate area 23 of the assembly 10 can be opened by swinging the cylinder assembly 43 and the thrust member 32 outward of the latch arms.
For certain offshore applications, it is considered to be preferable to pressurize the region 50 with nitrogen, in accordance with applicable safety regulations. However, the overall operation using nitrogen is essentially the same as when using air.
The present invention has numerous advantages over the mechanical device mentioned above. The cylinder assembly 43 does not require manual tightening using a wrench and sledge hammer. The invention operates faster and thus saves rig time. It is considerably safer to use and no tools are required on the rig floor which could be dropped down hole. The cylinder assembly 43 applies the same holding torque each time it is used, and less torque can be applied, if desired, by reducing the hydraulic pressure in the region 51.
It now will be recognized that a new and improved pipe handling apparatus and method have been disclosed. Since certain changes or modifications can be made in the disclosed embodiment without departing from the inventive concepts involved, it is the aim of the following claims to cover all such changes and modifications that fall within the true spirit and scope of the present invention.

Our Pretties
I am kind-hearted, sentimental and romantic girl.I consider myself as a kind, emotional and sensitive woman who is very strong and feminine at the same time. I am a very devoted and sincere person and greatly value the similar in men. I am sociable and easily find the common language with other people.I'm open to try something new and interesting. I think if you are not satisfied with anything, so change it! I am not afraid of changes.
I am not a person who prefers passive life style. I think we should lead an active life and be in moving all the time. As I am a curious and inquisitive woman with a strong wish to learn more, I like reading books on psychology, self-education and politics.And I truly believe that having my son is the happiest gift in my life. Sport helps me feel energy and content.Also I like watching movies, especially dramas and comedies. For me is a great pleasure to go to the cinema.
Need partner: 30 - 55 years old
The biggest wish in my life is to love and to be loved. First of all I value man's inner world, not his appearance. My man should be devoted to our family and me.I wish to share all my unspent love and patience with my future husband. Are you ready to accept the ocean of emotions and feelings that I can give you?

"He will play tight end there," said Shakir who also uses Knight as a defensive end. "He is very athletic and plays basketball. He has good hands and is a smooth runner. He can get out wide. They really like him because of his versatility."
But his film rally shows you his tenacity in the trenches, and that is something the Gators may lose a lot of with the graduation of two senior tight ends in 2014.
"He's very aggressive," Shakir said. "At Lincoln we have been known as being a physical football team."
Knight himself says he feels like he can play like New Orleans all-pro tight end Jimmy Graham.
"My biggest strength is catching the ball, route running and my blocking as well," he said. "I try to play like Jimmy Graham. They use him as a receiver and as a blocking tight end. He is really effective on the field in the offense."
As far as the commitment, Coach Shakir wanted Knight and his family to make sure the family didn't rush into anything. He was offered by Florida a couple of weeks ago and it was a big offer. Before they tripped to Gainesville this weekend, the coach asked them not to make a rush decision, to come back home, and think things over.
"He actually (committed) when I was right next to him," Coach Shakir said. "He went to the Junior Day this past weekend. They offered him two weeks ago, but wanted to see him first, talk to him in person and meet his parents. He went down there. I always tell my kids to come back home, talk to your parents about it, and sleep on it and make sure the feeling is real.
"Kids are impulsive, when our kids commit, they commit. I don't let them visit elsewhere or entertain others. For us at Lincoln, their word is their bond.
"He enjoyed it, his parents loved it, and so he went ahead and did it."
For Knight, he is so happy to have finally announced the decision, which he did on Twitter right after he made it.
"It feels good, I am excited" he said. "The education and stuff that they had there are the best. They are building up the program and it is close to home."
Derek Lewis is the beneficiary of this commitment. Florida's tight end coach is a terrific recruiter and helped assistant Mike Summers land this one.
"Coach Lewis has been big in my recruitment" Knight said. "He talks to me about things. He likes my aggressiveness, that I can make some big plays, and that I am not afraid to block someone."
Off the field, Coach Shakir says the 6-foot-4, 220 pounder "is a very nice kid… and does everything we ask him to do." Knight likes what he sees as his future as a Gator.
"I feel like I can be a key to help them win and the new offensive scheme is a good thing," Knight said. "I'm going to be very spirited and ready to work to win games."

text: Vehicle is badly damaged, occupants shaken but unharmed in South African park August 06, 2014 by David Strege An elephant in Pilanesburg National Park in South Africa used a small car apparently to scratch an itch while terrifying the passengers inside. The elephant rubbed against and sat on the roof and hood of the VW Polo, extensively denting the vehicle, smashing out all the windows, blowing out all four tires, and breaking the chassis, according to Armand Grobler's account in the U.K. Mirror. "We were unsure of what to do in the situation when the elephant made contact with the car, and when the car was being crushed, we feared for the lives of the driver and passenger, but our efforts were very limited as to what we could do," Grobler of Armand Grobler Photography told the Mirror.

How can I tell AV to open its Window always at a special place of the screen, e.g. the upper left corner, and in a special size, i.e. a quarter screen ?
Array Visualizer
For more complete information about compiler optimizations, see our Optimization Notice.
Mon, 02/10/2003 - 17:56
The Compaq Array Visualizer doesn't offet this functionality.
The Array Viewer interface in the Intel Array Visualizer has properties for the window size, but not the position. I'll look into adding properties for the position in a future release.
For now one work-around would be to use Win32 to get the HWND of the Array Viewer window (e.g. FindWindow) and SetWindowPlacement to set the window size and position.
Thanks for the answer. I have try it, but without success. Therefore I must my problem make more precise : In my Fortran-Program I calculate several result-curves and display them for better understanding with help of the AV on the screen. Problem is, that AV-Windows are scattered over the screen and covered the I/O-Window of the main-program. Therefore it would be helpful, that the Fortran-program tells the AV-viewer, where to open the window(s). Because I'm not so fit in programming with Win32 routines, you could make my problem easier,if you give me an example, how to solve my problem. Would you be so kind ?
Tue, 02/11/2003 - 18:16
I'm far from being an expert in this area, but couldn't you put the AV control in a dialog box that you could then place wherever you wanted?
Retired 12/31/2016
Could you elaborate more on the FindWindow/SetWindowPlacement commands, perhaps with an example. I've been trying with no success to maximize AV using SetWindowPlacement with the "hv" argument retured from FavStartViewer.
Also, I don't fully understand the FindWindow arguments.
Thu, 02/13/2003 - 22:42
Take a look the attached code. I've added a SetAvWindow routine to the Simple.f90 sample. The routine goes through all the top-level windows on the system looking for a window that contains the title bar string: "Compaq Array Viewer". You can also pass a second matching string to the routine to distinguish between multiple instances of the viewer.
How does this work for everyone?

By Chris McGuinness
Killeen Daily Herald
A local nonprofit group that provides furniture to those in need is looking to add a program to provide beds for children.
Furniture for Families Inc., which works with local organizations to give free furniture to families and veterans, plans to launch Beds 4 Kids in September. The program will provide new beds for school-aged children.
"The idea really came from talking to the agencies we work with," said Woody Hall, Furniture for Families executive director. "I'd say maybe a fourth or a fifth of the requests we get are for beds for young children."
Two of the organizations that currently refer people to the Furniture for Families program, Communities in Schools and the Killeen Independent School District's Homeless Awareness and Response Program, provided startling statistics that underscored the need.
There are roughly 1,200 homeless students within the district, according to information HARP provided by Furniture for Families. Roughly 2,500 children in the Central Texas area do not have a bed to sleep in, according to Communities in Schools.
"You have situations where the children are sleeping on the floor or just on quilts," said Hall, who previously worked with the Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Texas for 34 years. "It's not a good situation for them or their families."
Plans to implement Beds 4 Kids comes 18 months after Furniture for Families opened. In that time, the group, which is sponsored by the Ashley Furniture Homestore and Furniture Zone and Sleep Shop, has collaborated with 25 partner organizations to provide furniture to more than 1,200 individuals.
Hall said the number continues to grow, and said the group continues to ask for donations of "gently used" furnishings to replenish the dwindling stock in the organization's warehouse in Killeen.
"We're looking for anything you can sit on, sleep on, or eat on," he said. "Sofas, beds and dining room tables are the items we need the most, and what families ask for most often."
Hall said many of those who use the program are women and children recovering from a domestic violence situation, homeless or economically disadvantaged veterans and families coping with emergencies and disasters.
In the end, Hall said Furniture for Families issn't just about providing those in need with home furnishings, but giving them hope and peace of mind during difficult times.
"It's not just giving them a sofa or a table," said Hall. "It makes their house feel like a home, and it gives them a feeling of confidence."

I actually went for a different tack; to create a new tag. <util:available file="${maven.war.webxml}"> ... </util:available> The tag can take either a File object (which is auto-coerced from a String) or can take a URI attribute, which can be a full file based URL or a URI relative to the current Jelly script. To do proper context-aware URI processing requires a Tag which is the main reason I went this route; also we get nice type-coersion too.. <util:available uri="foo.xml"> ... </util:available> <util:available uri="file://blah/whatever/foo.xml"> ... </util:available> This is all available in the latest Jelly snapshot. Going forward, another approach could be to add some helper objects to the context so that function libraries can be available via variable names. e.g. public class MyHelperClass { public boolean someCheck(Object someArgument, int x) { return true; } ... } Then to use these methods... <j:useBean var="helper" class="com.acme.MyHelperClass"/> ... <j:if test="${helper.someCheck(foo, 12)}"> ...

Project DescriptionProject Goals:
The client's instructions were simple and clear - create a center for inspired early childhood learning and development for the kids of Chesapeake employees. In typical Chesapeake fashion, they wanted it to be the best - a safe place where parents and guardians could come any time to spend time with their kids and be part of their lives while at work. We set out to design the model childhood development center in the country, spending over a year doing a great deal of research. What Chesapeake has today is a fantastic center where kids are prepared for the next stages of education and parents and guardians are actively involved in all that goes on with the kids. To Chesapeake's credit we had the opportunity to introduce art and architecture to children at an early age. For us, the architecture has been considered as a part of the learning experience.
Program Requirements:
A. Our plan shows 24 universal classrooms
B. We have 3 offices, 2 workstations, work room and 2 conference rooms
C. We have a commercial kitchen and service area
D. Our safe room/playroom is 3000 sq. ft.
E. We have 3 sick rooms with a private entrance.
F. Two lactation rooms
G. Each classroom has direct access to an outdoor play area and a large interior corridor for rainy days. Our outdoor space exceeds the requirement
Architectural Concept:
A. Presented on my knees to illustrate scale.
B. Universal room
C. Neighborhood school
D. Kid scale, color, discovery
E. My favorite detail is the small round skylights that spray circles of light on the walls and floor.
Exterior Concept
1. To create a visually exciting and fun place where kids want to be.
2. To create a kinetic "sculpture" for the East Campus.
3. To create a great kid place.
Interior Concept
1. Functional spaces
2. Durable materials and finishes
3. Consistent concept for outside and inside
4. To create a fun environment for learning.
a. Consider…
1. Scale for children
2. Color
3. Light
4. Visual association and navigation
5. Playful spaces and forms
6. Remember this is a space for children and adults just visit.
"Word Paintings" (inspirations):
Imagine a place made for little people where adults just visit . . .
Think about a place filled with sunlight, butterflies and kites.
Imagine the colors of the rainbow, a trike track and water you can run through. . .
There will be a place to discover a balloon dog and a pinwheel spinning in the wind.
Think about blocks piled high, alphabet letters you can walk under and an elephant
made of plants.
There will be a big tree for shade and storytelling and picnics . . .
Imagine blue jays and flowers and pumpkin pictures and apples you can touch and big
words to greet you each day . . .
Our place will be a building that teaches . . . a giant storyboard filled with visual fantasy
and wonder . . . a place to make your imagination soar . . .
Think of the building as pages of a coloring book.
Think of this place as a toy in the garden.

Dear Father Who Told His Daughter, "Be careful, honey, you're holding a stick."
I saw you at a party a while ago. Kids were running around, what people in the pre-Internet Age used to call "playing." Your seven-year-old daughter picked up a small branch. It was pine with soft needles. She stuck her arm up as high as she could and twirled around as she clutched the branch. It was cute. A good example of what people in the pre-iPad Age used to call "childhood."
Then you said, "Be careful, honey, you're holding a stick."
Like the pine branch was made of highly combustible plastic explosives or was possessed by an evil spirit. So she put it down. Then she sat down and did nothing. Crisis averted.
It was a typical example of a generation that those who raised their kids in the pre-Wireless Age dub the "most over-protective parents in the history of the world." You see these moms and dads at the playground warning their children about the inherent dangers of slides. This Halloween, they will be sure their children stay safely on the sidewalk. I'm not judging. I've been known to obsess now and then.
But here's the reason I'm writing you – Father Who Told His Daughter, "Be careful, honey, you're holding a stick" – at the playground, on the sidewalk, in the backyard, you're as alert for danger as a Navy Seal on a top-secret mission. Why is it then, that when I'm driving home, I see you holding your little dear one's hand, jaywalking across four lanes of traffic at dusk when there is a crosswalk 10 feet away from you?
Are you getting the inconsistency? Do you see the hole in the logic?
Sure, your kid might break a leg on the jungle gym. That's not fun, but it won't be fatal. However, if a car hits your kid, the consequences will be far worse. Yet you seem happy to teach her this high-risk behaviour.
When your seven-year-old sees you jaywalk through traffic, she figures it's okay (until age 14 your kids look up to you, as teenagers they "like know" you're an idiot). So, when your kids are older and you are not around, they'll imitate the behaviour. You may consider yourself the Gretzky of jaywalking. Your kid may not be so lucky. He or she will jaywalk and he or she may suffer dearly.
Right now, Father Who Told His Daughter, "Be careful, honey, you're holding a stick," you're saying – what about the drivers? Shouldn't they be alert? Isn't it their responsibility to look out for pedestrians? Yes, absolutely. It is. But they don't.
Here's the thing: you know that weird misplaced paranoia you have about twigs and insects and schoolyards? Good news! When it comes to drivers, you are absolutely right. Don't trust them. You must accept the fact that they are all idiots, every last one of them. Give them no credit. That being said, jaywalking because you feel people should drive more carefully is like refusing to wear sunscreen because people should be doing more about climate change. Theoretically you have a point, but practically you are doomed.
There are different styles of parental jaywalking. There's the "dasher" who grabs his kid's hand and bolts into traffic. This stunt is anchored in frustration. The kid's been whining, it's been a long day, the parent wants relief and can't imagine a world where he can make it to the lights without losing his mind. So off he goes. Other parent jaywalkers model themselves on the 1980s video game Frogger. A mom will creep out into the road with her kids. Stop. Freeze. Realize how stupid she is being, and after a few minutes spent stranded in the middle of the road, Frogger their way to the other side. They're different but they're all dangerous.
I'd like to extend my observation to mothers who jaywalk while pushing strollers. I realize that the design and mobility of strollers has advanced considerably. Some now cost thousands of dollars. I have yet, however, to find a stroller that is crash proof. Please, please, do not push yours out into traffic. Cross at the lights. It's a better plan and that way there are far more people's feet you can roll your stroller over.
Look, Father Who Told His Daughter, "Be careful, honey, you're holding a stick," I don't mean to be so hard on you. I'm not asking you to stop being over-protective. I'm just suggesting that, if you're going to be hyper-vigilant, you may as well be hyper-vigilant about something that is potentially dangerous (jaywalking) and not be hyper-vigilant about something that is not dangerous (most twigs).
The world is indeed a scary place. It always has been. Don't make it scarier by teaching your kids to jaywalk.

Achieving Design Focus: An Approach to Design Workshops
Stakeholders with business, design, and technology viewpoints can pull products in different design directions—sometimes without knowing how the design work fits into an overall strategy. This can leave stakeholders feeling lost and unhappy. Creating a focus around design goals and asking and answering the hard design questions as a team is an effective way of coalescing a team around one design direction. At the same time, it can create a more optimal and fun working environment.

Microfiber is a wonderful material for couches because it cleans easily, resists most dirt and staining and is soft and comfortable. However, it can retain odors such as smoke. Smoke is one of the most unpleasant odors to have in your home, be it from a fireplace or from cigarettes. There are a few steps that you can take in order to remove smoke odors from your microfiber couch that require only a few household products.
Things You'll Need
- Baking soda
- Vacuum
- Febreze, Oust or another odor-eliminating spray
Sprinkle baking soda all over the surface of the couch, being sure to cover the cushions, the pillows and the armrests.
Allow the baking soda to sit on the fabric for 15 minutes.
Vacuum up all the baking soda, being sure to go over the surfaces multiple times to remove every trace of the powder.
Spray the surface of the couch, the sides of the couch, the cushions, pillows and armrests with an odor-neutralizing spray such as Febreze or Oust. Allow to dry for three hours, then spray again. You may need to repeat this step several times until the odor is gone.
Tips & Warnings
- If baking soda and odor-neutralizing spray do not do the job, there is a chance that you may need to call a professional couch cleaner who can use specialized chemicals and equipment to remove the odor from your couch.
- Coffee beans or coffee grounds also can eliminate odor. Leaving an open can of coffee grounds or beans next to the couch may aid in the elimination of the smoke odor.

What is the best anti-virus out there? what do you guys think of mallware? i got some bad trojans and seems like mallware is having picking it up.
16 Replies
Apr 27, 2011 at 1:36 UTC
The answer to your question is going to be subjective. "Best" always depends on what criteria are used.
A good place to start would be here: http:/
Personally I like VIPRE AntiVirus from GFI (they bought SunBelt).
Apr 27, 2011 at 1:39 UTC
Paid or freeware? At home I have used Avast but lately I have heard decent things to say about Microsoft Security Essentials.
As for malware, I think the best combination of tools is RKill http:/
Apr 27, 2011 at 1:46 UTC
guess i am looking for both (paid or freeware) something that gets rid of mallware and very consistent. How Malware used to be.
Apr 27, 2011 at 1:49 UTC
I think best AV boils down to personal preference, budget, experience..
I liked Symantec Products, but they are fumbling lately..resource hogs, McAfee has always been solid as well, had really bad experiences with Kaspersky and Avira, personally observed both of them completely miss obvious infections.
On the free side you have AVG which is fine, and Microsoft Security Essentials (which amazingly enough is free and works great).
If by mallware you mean malwarebytes then yah its an awesome application, but most good trojan's/malware can easily stop it in it's tracks, prevent it from updating etc. Best bet is a hard drive enclosure, scan it from a clean PC. The latest bootable antiviirus CD's are great to, bitdefender has a nice one.
Apr 27, 2011 at 1:58 UTC
For free use, I like Comodo Antivirus Suite. You get both the antivirus and firewall(most free solutions only gives you the antivirus). I've used it for about 3 years and had 1 virus. That was when I was attacked by a phony Craigslist e-mail. That was the last day I used Craigslist.
My first red flag after opening it was when my Comodo said "Text.exe is attempting to blah blah, accept or decline?". #&$%!!!!
In conjunction to Comodo I run the free version of Malwarebytes at home and scan it once a month. It never picks anything up but it's just another layer of protection.
I use Avast on PCs that are owned by those who aren't computer illiterate since it requires less user attention and use Windows Firewall. Comodo is like the over-protective grandma and prompts you often when something unindentified is modifying something on your computer.
Apr 28, 2011 at 7:44 UTC
I have migrated to Microsoft Security Essentials and Malwarebytes. I was using AVG but they became bigger and when business becomes bigger, the consumer usually loses something. And shortly thereafter, the business loses something as well - the consumer.
I have had zero issues using MSE and Malwarebytes. Regular updates and everything is fine. I should point out I bought the paid version of Malwarebytes. While the free version is fine, I find the added bonus of USB scanning and the program running in the background give a welcome measure of protection.
Apr 28, 2011 at 8:54 UTC
My vote's are for Vipre or Eset both are extremely good. if your looking for freeware Avast is the way to go.
Apr 28, 2011 at 9:50 UTC
How is Eset for dealing with spam (Exchange)?
Apr 28, 2011 at 10:17 UTC

This is always an excellent question. One as an IT Pro I am always revisiting. The truth is, nothing really is ever static. These products flow and ebb just like the ocean's tide.
I find a good resources for beginning your evaluation of av products is: http://www.av-comparatives.org/
In 2008 they put Vipre (before it was bought out by GFI) in the top spot. I've been using Vipre since then with a fair amount of success. Back then Sunbelt's tech support was excellent. Not so much now, that GFI owns the product (and this is not to diss GFI - it just happens to be my viewpoint at this time). So you want to factor that in too (the tech support that is).
You really want to look at a number of defenses. Not just a single solution. start with a good firewall. While a lot could be said about firewalls and device sprawl (firewall helpers that themselves have to be managed, patched etc.) a good start if you're on a limited budget (and who isn't thse days) is an open source set up such as PFSense and Untangle.
Then move to an anti-spam setup to filter out unwanted email traffic (a large source of virus intrusions)
Keep all your systems patched and up-to-date software wise. Make sure you have GOOD backups of all critical systems.
And follow best practicies with limiting user accounts.
These things go a long way in helping you defend against bad stuff.
I find that once a computer does have an infection that was missed by your usual AV product, I have successfully cleaned this up using a Kaspersky boot disk, then malwarebytes.
Apr 29, 2011 at 8:58 UTC
Praxis is an IT service provider.
I use Symantec Endpoint Protection and I hate it. At least once a week I get hit with a new virus on a PC, usually a fake AV virus. All I need to do is boot into safe mode and run malwarebytes and housecall and the pc is clean, but SEP never catches anything. I am looking at Sophos because 90 percent of my workforce is remote via laptops with little connectivity to the LAN with a VPN. Most of the time they are working at another company behind their firewall. Sophos has the ability to do its duties and connect over 80 and 443 so even if Joe Smith is behind a very tight firewall, all they need is connectivity to the web and Sophos can work. For workstations that I dont need to monitor, I like Microsoft Security Essentials as well.
May 5, 2011 at 12:07 UTC
Paid or freeware? ... have heard decent things to say about Microsoft Security Essentials.

Personally I have changed from AVG to MS essentials and so far have been fine. On a business fron we have changed from Sophos (only because of the resources it took up on scanning) to a bundled package from Lightspeed.
All seems to work fine, although we do have a few other layers at different points of entry.

+1 for ESET NOD32 you will not find a better setup for managing the product, also the bandwidth load is next to nothing, pushes out like 1MB def updates, crazy when you compare Symantec Endpoint Protection pushes out 80-100MB defs. Look at their 3 year contract huge savings!!! I also have been some want impressed with Microsoft Security Essentials if you are trying to save a buck and still use something free, since most free is not for commercial use or will not run on a Server OS. Now for personal use i have been using Avast! for 2-3 years, and have been very pleased.

I participated in an Ambassador Program on behalf of Millennial Central for MY M&M'S. I received product samples to facilitate my review and to thank me for my participation.
I love planning parties. I don't have enough excuses to really go all out though. This summer I have the honor of planning a bridal shower for my good friend and sister-in-law. I'm planning a joint shower for the beautiful couple this summer. We are working on nailing down a venue this week, but some of the finer details falling into place. I'm thinking lemonade, wildflower centerpieces, a few simple games and potted flowers and herbs as prizes.
Pictured above (clockwise from top left): MY M&M'S / Invitation via Makr / Straws via A Little Sussy / Plant Shower Prizes via Wedding Chicks / Lemonade Stand via Wedding Chicks
Favors can be tough. So many favors end up in the kitchen junk drawer or in the bottom of your purse. You really can't go wrong with chocolate though, and M&M's have been a classic since 1941. MY M&M'S makes it super easy. It was probably the easiest part of the entire planning process so far. In about 10 minutes, I was able to select the perfect colors to coordinate with the event palette, customize them with a monogram I designed and have them ordered and on their way.
Once they arrive on my doorstep from MY M&M'S, I'm planning to create a simple favor that will really show off the candy. I ordered clear square cello bags and will seal them with a custom printed sticker. I think they will be a perfect take-away for guests. Any extra M&M's will go in bowls on the tables to add some extra color and pattern.
A huge 'thank you' MY M&M's for kindly letting us try their customization services. It's going to really help make this shower special for my dear friends. Stay tuned for a follow-up to see how the favors turn out.
