Press release from the issuing companyROCHESTER, N.Y. & SAN DIEGO---Jan. 24, 2002--Eastman Kodak Company has finalized the acquisition of Encad, Inc., forming Encad, Inc. - A Kodak Company. The entity is a wholly owned subsidiary of Kodak that is focused exclusively on the wide-format inkjet printing industry. The purchase price was approximately $25 million, paid with Kodak stock. The acquisition makes Encad, Inc. one of the largest sellers of wide-format inkjet products, a $2.4 billion output market growing at approximately 15% annually. The new company is a complete wide-format inkjet resource and provides customers with a full set of offerings, including inkjet printers, inks, media, software, and service. By combining Kodak's leading-edge printer technology, heritage in ink, media, imaging and color science with Encad's pioneering wide-format expertise and industry relationships, Encad, Inc. offers a portfolio of solutions unmatched within the wide-format inkjet industry. "The combination of our companies will continue to drive growth within this industry. Together, we have the dedicated research, development and manufacturing expertise that will enable us to achieve this,'' said Regina Pizzoli, the recently named CEO of Encad, Inc. "Kodak has the global resources, complementary expertise in media and inks and multi-national market presence that will extend products and services well beyond the established customer base developed by Encad prior to the acquisition''. "We're glad to be a part of the world's largest imaging company,'' said Terry Vandewarker, recently named President of the new entity. "As a long term player in this industry, we will continue to focus on developing even broader, more technologically-advanced solutions that serve the needs of our customers in wide-format inkjet.'' The acquisition will integrate Kodak's new 5260 Inkjet Printer with the existing line of ENCAD wide-format inkjet printers - creating the broadest line of wide-format inkjet printers in the industry. It uniquely provides a choice of print head technology - piezo or thermal - offering an array of price/performance options to suit virtually any customer's workflow needs. A complete transition plan is being implemented to ensure ongoing availability of products and services to the respective customer base of each company. "We plan to leverage the best of each company to benefit wide-format inkjet customers'', said Pizzoli. "For the next 60 days, each organization will continue to provide sales, service, and customer support to their respective product portfolio within their original customer base. Once we complete this transitional period, all sales, service, and customer support will be sourced from Encad, Inc., headquartered in San Diego, CA or its regional sales offices worldwide.''

Like revealed in his today's interview, GetJar's Vice President Marketing thinks they'll hit 100 millions download per month soon.
Did I already say GetJar is THE place to release your apps/games ? ;)
He also talks about SE's Play Arena : free content are GetJar's !
I now understand why I got a lot of hits from SE mobile with Poulpytris.
Interesting, Spring (in USA) is also using GetJar since 2 weeks now.
I'm surprised with their recent contract with EA....
EA is a giant, if GetJar is full of EA's demos, it will be hard to find our place....
which is confirmed by "some of [EA] free trial games are in top 10 most downloaded apps"
Imagine GetJar full of Konami, Capcom, EA, Sega and others demos : they'll be no place for small games...
But, after the appstors, it's perhaps the beggining of a big move on the mobile market...It's also perhaps the reason why the price of games is on every company interview this month
04 February 2010
GetJar Number 2 behind Apple's AppStore

About ARRIS
For the latest ARRIS news:

Notes to GAAP to Adjusted Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in
Reduction in Revenue Related to Warrants: We entered into agreements with two customers for the issuance of warrants to purchase up to 14.0 million of ARRIS's ordinary shares. Vesting of the warrants is subject to certain purchase volume commitments, and therefore the accounting guidance requires that we record any change in the fair value of warrants as a reduction in revenue. Until final vesting, changes in the fair value of the warrants will be marked to market and any adjustment recorded in revenue. We have excluded the effect of the implied fair value in calculating our non-GAAP financial measures. We believe it is useful to understand the effects of these items on our total revenues and gross margin.
Acquisition Accounting Impacts Related to Deferred Revenue: In connection with the accounting related to our acquisitions, business combination rules require us to account for the fair values of deferred revenue arrangements for post contract support in our purchase accounting. The non-GAAP adjustment to our sales and cost of sales is intended to include the full amounts of such revenues as if these purchase accounting adjustments had not been applied. We believe the adjustment to these revenues is useful as a measure of the ongoing performance of our business. We historically have experienced high renewal rates related to our support agreements, and our objective is to increase the renewal rates on acquired post contract support agreements. However, we cannot be certain that our customers will renew their contracts.
Stock-Based Compensation Expense: We have excluded the effect of stock-based compensation expenses in calculating our non-GAAP operating expenses and net income (loss) measures. Although stock-based compensation is a key incentive offered to our employees, we continue to evaluate our business performance excluding stock-based compensation expenses. We record non-cash compensation expense related to grants of restricted stock units. Depending upon the size, timing and the terms of the grants, the non-cash compensation expense may vary significantly but will recur in future periods.
Acquisition Accounting Impacts Related to Inventory Valuation: In connection with the accounting related to our acquisitions, business combinations rules require the acquired inventory be recorded at fair value on the opening balance sheet. This is different from historical cost. Essentially, we are required to write the inventory up to the end customer price less a reasonable margin as a distributor. We have excluded the resulting adjustments in inventory and cost of goods sold as the historic and forward gross margin trends will differ as a result of the adjustments. We believe it is useful to understand the effects of this on cost of goods sold and margin.
Integration, Acquisition, Restructuring and Other Costs: We have excluded the effect of acquisition, integration, and other expenses and the effect of restructuring expenses in calculating our non-GAAP operating expenses and net income measures. We incurred expenses in connection with the Pace and Ruckus Networks acquisitions, which we generally would not otherwise incur in the periods presented as part of our continuing operations. Acquisition and integration expenses consist of transaction costs, costs for transitional employees, other acquired employee related costs, and integration related outside services. Restructuring expenses consist of employee severance, abandoned facilities, product line disposition and other exit costs. We believe it is useful to understand the effects of these items on our total operating expenses.
Impairment of Goodwill and Intangible Assets: We have excluded the effect of the estimated impairment of goodwill and intangible assets in calculating our non-GAAP operating expenses and net income measures. Although an impairment does not directly impact the Company's current cash position, such expense represents the declining value of the business, technology and other intangible assets that were acquired. We exclude these impairments when significant and they are not reflective of ongoing business and operating results.
Amortization of Intangible Assets: We have excluded the effect of amortization of intangible assets in calculating our non-GAAP operating expenses and net income (loss) measures. Amortization of intangible assets is non-cash, and is inconsistent in amount and frequency and is significantly affected by the timing and size of our acquisitions. Investors should note that the use of intangible assets contributed to our revenues earned during the periods presented and will contribute to our future period revenues as well. Amortization of intangible assets will recur in future periods.
Noncontrolling Interest share of Non-GAAP Adjustments: The joint venture formed for the ActiveVideo acquisition is accounted for by ARRIS under the consolidation method. As a result, the consolidated Statements of Income include the revenues, expenses, and gains and losses of the noncontrolling interest. The amount of net income (loss) related to the noncontrolling interest are reported and presented separately in the consolidated Statements of Operations. We have excluded the noncontrolling share of any non- GAAP adjusted measures recorded by the venture, as we believe it is useful to understand the effect of excluding this item when evaluating our ongoing performance.
Impairment on Investments: We have excluded the effect of other-than-temporary impairments and certain gains on investments in calculating our non-GAAP financial measures. We believe it is useful to understand the effect of this non-cash item in our other expense (income).
Debt Amendment Fees: In 2017, the Company amended its credit agreement. This debt modification allowed us to improve the terms and conditions of the credit agreement and extend the maturities of certain loan facilities. We have excluded the effect of the associated fees in calculating our non-GAAP financial measures. We believe it is useful to understand the effect of this item in our other expense (income).
Remeasurement of Deferred Taxes: The Company records foreign currency remeasurement gains and losses related to deferred tax liabilities in the
Income Tax Expense (Benefit): We have excluded the tax effect of the non-GAAP items mentioned above. Additionally, we have excluded the effects of certain tax adjustments related to tax and legal restructuring, state and non-US valuation allowances, benefits for releases of uncertain tax positions due to settlement, change in law or statute of limitations and provision to return differences.

Will Boeing's 787 really fly this year?
Boeing (BA) announced that it expects to test fly its Dreamliner 787 by the end of 2009. But the 787 -- which has generated 850 orders and a $154 billion backlog -- was supposed to start flying two years ago and it's been delayed five times already. At the Paris Air Show in mid-June 2009, Boeing told the public that the 787 would fly by the end of that month -- only to announce an indefinite delay at the end of June.
So is Boeing's latest deadline going to be the real thing or just another head fake? If you believe the stock market, the 787 will indeed fly this year -- Boeing stock spiked 8.5 percent yesterday. Boeing is taking a $2.5 billion non-cash charge because airlines are balking at purchasing its first six test aircraft.
And based on announced problems -- structural weakness where the wing and fuselage join and fuselage wrinkling -- not to mention possible problems with the 787's Environmental Control System (ECS) and Electrical System (ES) -- I can understand airline reluctance.
But Boeing's CEO, Jim McNerney, is confident. He told the Wall Street Journal, "We have a high degree of confidence in the fix and the time it will take. [The new testing and production schedule includes] some cushion . . . against the possibility of unknowns."
But interviews with sources familiar with the 787 program are not confident that Boeing really has the problem licked. They describe very rigorous testing of five aircraft, with Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) officials keeping close tabs. One source claims that the FAA establishes the requirements for certification and suggests that Boeing will have a tough time satisfying them.
And that plan is very rigorous. As he told me, "The plan Boeing has is to use multiple test platforms, I believe it is five airplanes for flight test, and fly aircraft around the clock seven days a week. Yes, they will have to fly the aircraft at all altitudes in all conditions of flight, including such wonderful conditions such as icing, rain, snow, ice, etc."
And that's not all. My source says that Boeing will "have to test the aircraft under specific test parameters and conditions at a great variety of altitudes within the design envelope. All the tests are supervised by FAA personnel and there are FAA pilots assigned to the test program. It's not like the FDA or other government agencies that allow companies to be 'honest,' the FAA guards their own hen house, and they have very big teeth!"
Based on this source's information about the ECS, the 787 is not likely to pass. As he told me, "It will not be able to fly above 12,000 feet unless everyone is on oxygen. So it would only be able to perform very few successful tests."
But another source believes that Boeing will not even be bringing in the FAA for 2009's flight tests. He sees a sequence of tests in which Boeing tries to get its test pilots comfortable with the aircraft before bringing in the FAA. And the other source is not comfortable with the ES.
As he said, "If the ES is not safe the test pilots won't fly. If it has known bugs but they are safe to fly with the pilots and engineers will fly and adjust their tests around those as required. Once the bugs are resolved Boeing will test the electrical first, ensure it passes all required tests and then they invite FAA along after that to certify that functionality."
Will the 787 fly this year? To paraphrase Bill Clinton, it depends on what the meaning of 787 is.

Dear Readers,
We received this from a district parent:
My husband and I chose Montclair for the school system. We have been happy with the magnet system and my child has thrived in the rich arts programs offered in the schools attended. Our happiness has faded over the last school year. The amount of testing and time preparing for tests is out of control. Now we face PARCC. This district has claimed that PARCC is not a curriculum and they won't be teaching to the test. I can hardly believe this is the truth when my child comes home and says they are using chrome books in Social Studies class. Two full classes were used this week for PARCC practice and the teacher has mentioned that hopefully they'll be doing this once a week.
My husband and I are getting very concerned as to how much this high stakes testing is taking away from actual learning. The amount of time preparing for a test, and then the amount of time taking the test, which will be given twice a year now. We realize that these aren't just concerns for Montclair, but it is affecting education everywhere.
Yet, we have heard of school districts that are pushing back on this type of testing. Not Montclair!
When we reached out to the Montclair BOE, their answer was that its a state mandate. People also address similar concerns regarding these tests at BOE meetings, only to get blank stares back. I have to say, we're seriously reconsidering where we want to live to get the best education for our child. We desperately need new leadership who will fight for what is right for our child and all of the children of Montclair. I haven't seen any signs of that yet.
Parents—ask yourselves this excellent question from Alfie Kohn:
"What was taken away from my children's education in order to make them better at taking standardized tests?"
Do you see less hands on, experiential learning? What about field trips? Is there less time for art, music or gym? Fiction?
What kind of homework are you seeing come home in your child's backpack? Is it primarily multiple choice worksheets?
Consider asking your children's teachers, principals, the Superintendent, and the BOE members: What learning time is being lost due to test prep, especially for the PARCC? How much time are students spending on PARCC test prep in class and/or at home?
For more on the PARCC, come to our Take the PARCC event happening on Sunday, November 9 from 3-5 pm.
Like what you see here? Please pass it on.
Have a story to share? Email it to us at:
Thank you!

ж∞іжЮЬж∞іжЮЬпЉМжИСжШѓи•њзУЬгАВ(then I showed them the picture of a watermelon)
I had got children's attention and some of them repeated what I read which was my purpose.
Then I gave each child and mum a heanband which they would need to put a fruit card on.
When they were ready, I read out the name of each fruit card¬† (thanks to Hong laoshi who made these cards) and asked if everyone wanted the fruit card until everyone had a card. By doing this, I repeated the name of fruit many times: p√≠ng gu«Т, l√≠, xiƒБng jiƒБo, c«Оo m√©i, p√Ї t√°o, m√°ng gu«Т, xƒЂ guƒБ.
Children loved putting the fruit card on their headbands. When everyone had the card on, I called the name of the fruit and asked who was that fruit.
"и∞БжШѓиЛєжЮЬпЉЯ" "Who is p√≠ng gu«Т?" Until all the fruits being called. Children loved this game.
I informed children there were some fruit cards hiding in the garden and if they would like to go to find the cards. I gave them a paper basket пЉИзѓЃе≠РпЉЙand also gave them an instruction of finding the first fruit p√≠ng gu«Т.¬† Children happily went and searched the cards around the garden. After they came back and told me what they found then I gave them second instruction and so on……by doing this, children were speaking Chinese "дЄАдЄ™иЛєжЮЬвАЬпЉМ вАЭдЄАйҐЧиНЙиОУвАЬ пЉМвАЬдЄАж†єй¶ЩиХЙвАЭ……without noticing.
After they had found all the cards,¬† we read a book called вАЬжИСй•њдЇЖгАВвАЭ w«Т √® le. (I am hungry. )
After the story, I gave them a form so they could stick the cards on, and children always like to colour their work after.
Kids had been very busy and we had a great Mandarin learning session.   It was a gorgeous day and we enjoyed learning in the garden.

IP Addresses in this range
IP address ranges, or netblocks, are groups of related IP addresses. They are usually represented as a base IP address, followed by a slash, and then a netmask which represents how many IP addresses are contained within the netblock. This format is known as CIDR. You'll also sometimes see netblocks given as a start ip address, and an end ip address, or an ip address range.
Traffic works its way around the internet based on the routing table, which contains a list of networks and their associated netblocks.

Silva, A.J., Ludermir, T.B., de Oliveira, W.R..
By exploiting the properties of superposition and entanglement found in quantum systems Quantum Computation has been applied to the design of algorithms considerably more efficient than the known classical ones. Known examples are the Shor's factoring algorithm and the Grover's search algorithm. This paper investigates the possibility of employing Quantum Computing techniques to the design of learning algorithms for neural networks tasks such as pattern recognition. We propose a quantum learning algorithm for neural networks where all patterns of the training set are presented concurrently in superposition. In the process we propose a novel model of a quantum weightless neural node. The algorithm is a combination of a quantum search algorithm, a probabilistic quantum memory and a quantum neural network.

The day is nearly here, the day that all the organizers of the 11th annual Philadelphia Trans-Health Conference (PTHC) have been waiting nearly 12 months for: the first day of the conference. Planning a conference for 2,500 people that runs for three days and involves over 350 presenters, 2,000-plus workshops, and nearly 40 other gatherings, activities, shows, and parties takes a veritable army to pull off. But when I step back and consider where we've come from, and where we are today, it is nothing short of remarkable. What began in 2002 as a one-day gathering of transgender activists, allies, and service providers at a Quaker meeting house in Philadelphia's historic district has grown into the largest transgender-specific conference in the world. Last year's Trans-Health Conference drew an incredibly diverse group of more than 2,000 attendees from around the nation and the world to talk about all aspects of transgender health and well-being, including safety, education, employment, housing, and social support.
From its inception the Trans-Health Conference and its presenting organization, Mazzoni Center, have taken a holistic approach to the definition of health and well-being, recognizing that accessible and quality health care is an integral part of self-determination when it comes to presenting one's body and identity in the larger world.
This year our 22 advisory boards developed programming in new areas, welcomed workshops in response to community needs, and maintained popular seminars that we've had since we started. As much as possible, PTHC strives to ensure that the conference addresses the diverse needs of all transgender communities: transgender men, transgender women, genderqueer and gender-variant youth and adults, and their partners, families, and allies. It's not an easy balancing act, but our goal is to provide a meaningful and educational experience both for veteran attendees of the conference and for individuals who may be joining us for the first time. That means covering everything from "Trans 101" to aging issues, spirituality to nutrition, and much more.
From the morning of Thursday, May 31 through the evening of Saturday, June 2, nearly 200 volunteers will cover almost 2,000 volunteer shifts to pull this off. But aside from the endless logistics, people, and processes involved, what I sit here thinking about after a sleepless night is the tears that will inevitably spring to my eyes on Friday afternoon. An 11-year-old transgender girl who has attended our conference since she was 6 will welcome this year's youth keynote speakers to the stage. I've never met anyone in my life prouder to be transgender than this child. Many young people in attendance in past years have described the conference as "better than Christmas," saying, "This is the one time of the year that I get to see all my real friends and be around lots of people who look like me."
Nothing makes all the hours of work on this conference more worthwhile than knowing that people can come to a space where, for three days, no one gawks, asks rude questions about their body, or suggests "what you could do to help me get your pronouns right." This is a space where trans* folks call the shots, teach medical providers the way that their bodies should be talked about, gather to pray together in a non-judgmental space, find ways to be safer when they walk home from the bus at night, and help loved ones understand why this is "not an choice, it's just who I am."
For the first time ever we are able to fund travel expenses for 10 brave individuals from around the globe to present on the work that they're doing in their home countries, which include Argentina, Ecuador, India, Nepal, Serbia, South Africa, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Some people are working on human rights issues. Others are working on social issues within the transgender community. It's exciting to feel this conference evolving into something that matters not just in the U.S. and Canada but to people from countries where it is, in fact, punishable by law to be LGBT. It helps me put into perspective all the little things that have caused me frustration and stress throughout the long year of planning for the event. The U.S. certainly still has a long way to go when it comes to transgender rights and social acceptance, but realizing that so many people wake up every day with the fear that their government will charge them with a crime and send them to prison just because of who they are is a sobering reminder that the fight is far from over.
This Friday night the conference will be hosting a production of Tara's Crossing, an original play by Emmy-nominated writer Jeffrey Solomon, based on the true story of a transgender woman from Guyana who sought asylum in the U.S. and was placed in a detention center, where she had to prove that she experienced discrimination in Guyana as a result of her gender identity. Having this production and discussion at the conference will help so many transgender people and their allies understand how dire the situation is in many places, and how important it is for us to keep working toward both legal rights and broader social education, to ensure more day-to-day safety for trans* and gender-nonconforming people in the U.S. and around the globe.
Those of us who work at Mazzoni Center year round are well aware of the integral connection between a person's civil and legal rights and their overall health and well-being. We know the impact that things like anti-discrimination legislation can have on individual lives. We understand that providing health care with dignity matters.
As this year's conference kicks off, I am, frankly, exhausted! But I am also encouraged and deeply inspired by the many people I have collaborated with over the past 12 months, and by others I will finally have the chance to meet in person over the next several days. I salute those whose determination and commitment to justice has made our city and other places all around the world a better place for all of us to live healthy and secure lives. I am proud to continue that work, throughout this week's conference and into the future.

Jewish World Review June 17, 2002/ 7 Tamuz, 5762
Lawrence Kudlow
http://www.NewsAndOpinion.com | Remember the old quiz show "To Tell the Truth"?
There were four panelists, who over the years included Polly Bergen, Kitty Carlisle, Ralph Bellamy, Tom Poston, Orson Bean, Peggy Cass, Johnny Carson, Bill Cullen and Don Ameche. They would interview three contestants, all of whom claimed to be the same person. Then they'd write down which contestant they believed was telling the truth. The moderator, originally Bud Collyer, then Garry Moore, would finally ask, "Will the real so-and-so please stand up?"
I'm giving away my age, but for those of us who grew up in the Eisenhower '50s, these are good memories. "To Tell the Truth" has been revived a few times over the years, and there's even a rendition of it that runs today. But the show I remember was of a most sophisticated sort. Back then, everyone wore suits or cocktail dresses on the air. The topics, dare we say, were normal.
So let's imagine yet another rendition of "To Tell the Truth," and a sophisticated guest category in our Fed chairman Alan Greenspan. The topic -- monetary policy -- would not only be normal, it would be vital.
Now, if you were one of the four celebrity panelists, what would you ask the contestants? Remember, we're looking for the real Alan Greenspan, a gentleman who has a reputation for being elusive.
If I were on panelist row, I'd ask about commodity prices -- a key indicator of inflation and the health of the economy.
Many supply-siders, including myself, believe in the commodity-price-rule approach to monetary policy. If the central bank had been injecting an excess of money into the economy, then rising commodity prices would tell the bank that it's time to tighten policy -- or withdraw cash from the system and raise interest rates. And if commodities were slumping badly, the bank would know to loosen, creating new money and lowering interest rates in order to avoid deflation.
Today, some economists believe that a recent commodity rally is telling the Fed that it must tighten policy to prevent excess money from starting a new round of inflation. But this is not my view. And I don't think it's Alan Greenspan's.
While it is true that spot commodities -- which reflect the actual prices businesses must pay for metals, raw industrials, food, livestock, etc. -- have increased nearly 7 percent over the past 30 days, the longer-term picture dating back to early 1996 shows a 29 percent drop. Which is the right measure to gauge monetary policy? Are commodities inflating or deflating? Will the real commodity picture please stand up?
Back to the all-new "To Tell the Truth." I'd ask the three Fed-chairman contestants which commodity measure they'd bank on. And the one who said they're both right would be my choice for the real Alan Greenspan.
The big picture shows a nasty three-year commodity deflation from the end of 1995 to the end of 1998, then price stability from 1999 to 2001, with a new recessionary deflation starting in the second half of 2001. So, a commodity spike today does not necessarily mean we're moving toward inflation. We still have a correction period to worry about. No -- what we're seeing today is a commodity rally away from deflation and back into a zone of price stability.
That's the plain truth. Whether looking at the broad commodity index or individual commodities, the story is the same. There is no excess money in the system, and any immediate Fed tightening would be premature -- at least based on a commodity-price-rule approach.
The real Alan Greenspan understands this perfectly well. He has learned from the mistaken over-tightening that occurred a couple of years ago. His new mantra is that business lacks "pricing power." And you can't say that if you think there's inflation out there.
The real Alan Greenspan also recognizes that as technology-based productivity rises, prices tend to fall. More, he sees the natural spillover of tech innovation into every economic sector, including the very important financial-services sector.
In these circumstances, the Fed's continued money-adding policy to finance the economic recovery is exactly right. In all likelihood, there will be no need to change this policy until next year, and perhaps not even then.
To tell the truth, Alan Greenspan is charting the right monetary course.

My Grandfather's Declaration of Intention and the Petition for Citizenship has the incorrect birth date for him and my father. The dates do not agree with the birth certificates of both my grandfather and my father.
The New York City Consulate wrote and informed me to obtain to obtain ether of;
An official "affidavit to amend a record" from the Vital Statistics office, or,
An official statement from a court judge declaring that the person on the petition and the certificate of birth are the same person. for both my grandfather and father.
My questions are;
1. What is the Vital Statistics Office
2. Should I try from with a letter from NARA stating that my grandfather was never a citizen, because of the birth date.
3. What Court or judge or type of Motion has to made for a Judge to make this declaration?
It seems that all else is OK and this is the only roadblock. Any suggestions, advice or help will be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

Tarte au citron
This recipe was used as a skill's test on the great British bake off. Having had a crack at Lemon tart previously resulting in overcooked crumbling pastry and an undercooked filling it was a welcome change to have crisp, light pastry with slight sweetness and tangy light lemon filling. You will need a 23 inch fluted loose-bottomed tart or flan tin.
Serves 6-8
175g Plain flour,sifted
100g Cold unsalted butter, cubed, plus extra for greasing
25g Icing sugar, sifted, plus a little extra for dusting
1 Egg yolk
1 Tablespoon cold water
150g Caster sugar
3 Egg's
100ml Double cream
Juice and zest of three large lemons
1. For the pastry, add the flour, butter and icing sugar into a food processor. Pulse until the mixture is the texture of breadcrumbs, add the egg and the water and pulse until the mixture comes together in a ball, the texture will be very light to the touch.
2. Knead the pastry two or three times on a floured surface, wrap the ball in cling film and chill for 15mins, grease the tart shell with a little butter.
3. Once the pastry is chilled, roll out to the thickness of a pound coin in a circle larger than the tart shell. Roll the pastry back over the pin and lay over the tin so that it drapes over the edges. Press the pastry into the fluted edges and on the base, prick the base lightly with a fork and cover with cling film. Preheat the oven to 200C and chill the pastry case for 30 minutes allowing the oven to come up to temperature.
4. Once the case has chilled, line the base with greaseproof paper and baking beans/pulses, place into the oven for 12-15 minutes.
5. Remove from the oven and take out the beans and paper, place the shell back into the oven for a further 12-15 minutes until lightly golden brown.
6. Take the case out and with a sharp knife cut around the top edges of the tin to remove the excess pastry, leave the case to cool while you prepare the filling, reduce the temperature at this point to 160C.
7. Whisk together all the filling ingredients and add to a jug, place the pastry case onto the oven rack and pour in the filling, leave to bake for 30-35 minutes until the filling has set and there is a slight wobble in the middle.
8. Leave to cool slightly on a wire rack before releasing from the tart shell, dust the tart with icing sugar and serve warm.

Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins admitted this week it would be pushing it to play in the preseason, and he was right.
The Redskins just announced that Cousins would be inactive for today's game against the Bills after spraining his foot last week. The injury isn't believed to be anything that would compromise his availability for the regular season.
That leaves Rex Grossman to start this afternoon against the Bills, since Robert Griffin III is being held out of the preseason as well.
Since Pat White is the only other quarterback on the roster, there's a high chance for him to get significant action as well.

We have beautiful Italian friends who invited us for lunch and hubby opened a bottle of 1988 Grange Hermitage on the Thursday, so it could breathe overnight in anticipation of the Friday lunch.
Hubby has been busy catching crabs and our friends had young ones visiting from northern Italy who had not eaten crabs.
I cooked the crabs, with a mild chilli sauce for these guests, who ate every morsel enthusiastically, taking 2 hours to eat them.
Our hosts had de cantered the beautifully aged 1988 Grange Hermitage and fired up the barbie (barbecue). They had beautifully marbled scotch fillet from the lush fields of Tamworth and fresh oysters from our local Wallis lake, which were shucked before our eyes and served simply washed in lake water with a squeeze of lime.
I do not take photographs of these events as I live in a small coastal town of 25,000 and everyone really does know everyone, so it is best to keep your movements quiet.
Suffice to say we had an amazing day sipping on the wine with oysters, crusty bread, cheese, fig paste and olives.
The guests kept thanking me for this amazing crab dish, which I had to improvise as our hosts did not have all of the ingredients I usually use with crabs. (They were even out of garlic.)
It goes to show we can cook anything when we really want to.
4 fresh crabs

Glee Star Checks Into Rehab
Cory Monteith's substance abuse past has apparently resurfaced, but hopefully not for long. The Glee star, who first came clean about his history with drug use two years ago, has checked himself into rehab. "I'm lucky on so many counts—I'm lucky to be alive," the actor told Parade magazine in a 2011 interview, explaining that his drug use consisted of "anything and everything as much as possible. I had a serious problem." Monteith's co-star and girlfriend Lea Michele publicly expressed her support Sunday, tweeting, "Feeling so grateful today <3."

Following from my last blog, which was about motivation, goal setting and dreams, this week I want to address the impact of healthy diet on our overall well-being. How to improve the quality of our lives and productivity? With so much going on in our lives, such as dealing with school, work and family life, sometimes we tend to forget to take care of ourselves. We start to take our body and mind for granted. What we should be really doing is focusing on ourselves first and foremost.
There is no magic to a healthy living. This is what worked for me, and I hope it does for you too.
- Eating healthy
- Exercise regularly
- Peace of mind
- Drink plenty of water
- Meditation
Eating healthy involves consuming more fruits, vegetables and less fatty foods. Cutting down on the carbohydrates or having it less than you normally would. Things that have worked for me in the past include:
- Green tea– it stimulates the body's metabolism and can also suppress the absorption of fat. And drinking it daily aids in weight loss.
- Olive oil has many benefits; the main benefit is that it lowers the bad cholesterol and raises the good cholesterol.
- Lemon–Try drinking lemon water as it is refreshing and has Vitamin C. It is best to reduce your intake of sugar, no pop, alcohol or canned fruit drinks!
- And lastly, Chicken is the best way to lose weight. This white meat is less fat, making it a good source of meat protein.
Exercise – I can't stress enough the importance of exercising and its endless benefits. You don't have to go to the gym to be able to do your exercise, simply by being active such as joining a sports club, a good walk, jog, and yoga does the job. I have personally gained a lot of benefits from doing yoga during my undergraduate years. It helped in maintaining my weight, reduced stress, and calms my mind.
And yes drink plenty of water—8 glasses of water is what the doctors suggest, and five to six glasses are fine too for starters. Keep a bottle of water in your purse, bag pack, in your car, so that it is easily reachable. -And make sure you have a glass of water every morning before breakfast as it helps in reducing weight.
Lastly, meditation helps with our mental well-being; it improves concentration levels and helps us to stay better focused in achieving our goals. Spare some time for yourself only. And spend time alone with yourself, where you can reflect on the past events and daily activities.
Some factors that are important for maintaining well-being include:
- good interpersonal relationships – a supportive relationship with at least one person – having good social support, good family relationships
- connectedness – having friends and social/cultural networks within the community
- purpose – having meaningful activity in life such as work, academic, sporting and spiritual pursuits
Next week's topic will cover the importance of having a positive frame of mind until then stay tuned!

August lurches on and fall waits in the wings, but these poems offer an escape—they'll lift you up and out of your own temporality, connect you with something larger, greater, lasting. Enjoy Bullerwell's wistful moments, Hansen's philosophical play, Ritta's manifest exploration, and Beck's almost surreal glimpses of life. –Siobhan Watson, Managing Editor Poems by Lynda … Continue reading

Reviews: Love Versus Terrorism by Nikhi Parekh
Review: Love Versus Terrorism by Nikhi Parekh –Keith Gaboury There's nothing timid about Nikhi Parekh's Love Versus Terrorism. The ambitious poet clearly states his overarching thesis in his introduction: "In a planet usurped today by graveyards of terrorism, this poetic collection imparts enlightenment, optimism, courage, and an eternal desire to breathe free." While that's undoubtedly … Continue reading
Creative Nonfiction: The Lot
The Lot by Rebecca Joy When it hits ten-thirty, everyone disappears.

To stand on High Street around ten-thirty at night is to stand in Edward … Continue reading

Seventeenth Century English Mathematician, Isaac Barrow, once said, "He that loves a book will never want a faithful friend, a wholesome counselor, a cheerful companion, an effectual comforter.

A highlight of our work with one such group (the Friends of the Pioneer Cemetery) led to our discovery that there are more than forty black pioneers buried at the Pioneer Cemetery in Salem, in both marked and unmarked graves.
In 2007, the Oregon Black Pioneers presented the City of Salem with a stone marker for the cemetery to honor the memory of those pioneers. This gift to the city was accepted by Mayor Janet Taylor at a well-attended ceremony that kicked off an exhibit called "Salem's Black Voices," which told the stories of many of those pioneers.

In the South-West of France, between Biarritz and Lourdes, facing the Pyrenees mountain, in heart of Bearn, Henri Ramonteu creates dry and sweet white wines from an exceptional terroir, the land of Domaine Cauhapé.
Our vineyard covers 43 hectares of clay dominant terroir. The vines are planted on the steep hillsides. With a south, south-east exposure and differing altitude between the parcels (the highest 400 meters), the vines benefit from optimum climatic conditions.
We cultivate five local grape-varieties. Petit Manseng contributes to the making of great sweet wines and equally to great dry wines. Gros Manseng and Courbu bring finesse and fruit. Camaralet and Lauzet are ancient varieties that we are reintroducing little by little to give birth to a new generation of dry Jurançon wines.
The wines of Jurançon with their fruity, complex aroma and elegant golden color, will assuredly enchant lovers of fine wines. With a foie gras mi-cuit, fattened chicken, fish, prawns or shellfish and a Jurançon wine from Cauhapé, you are able to create the most refined pairing.

I'll bring you one last set of Sexy Snippets from The Witch's Protector today, as I'll be switching to the next book in the series, Her Lion Protector next Sunday.
To set the scene, Joanne thinks she's not good enough to be with Henry. I shan't tell you why. I'm afraid you'll need to read the book for that. Needless to say, Henry isn't too pleased about that assumption of hers, especially when she won't tell him why she feels like that.
"Fucking talk to me, little red, or I mean it I will walk away. I'll still protect you, that goes without saying, but I can't do this…us without knowing you'll be honest. I love you too damn much for that, and I'm not just saying this because my dick won't ever get hard for anyone but you. I. Love. You."
He nuzzled into her neck and she could feel his lethal canines scrape along her rapidly beating pulse point there, as though he was on the verge of truly biting her. Excitement rose in the pit of her stomach and spread through her like molten lava, until she couldn't hold back the words spilling from the depths of her very soul.
"I love you two, so very much. I think I loved you from the moment I saw you, but we can't…you won't want me after…I'm no good for you."
[Siren Classic: Erotic Paranormal Romance, shape-shifters, witches, werewolves, consensual BDSM, sex toys, HEA]
They're the men mothers warn their daughters to stay away from.
In 1957 the tiny village of Middle Brook is caught between two warring MCs, the Mongrels and the Lupines. As a fledgling Guardian witch, not yet in full control of her immense powers, Joanne Lilley knows to stay away. When she witnesses the Mongrels leader being run off the road, the instant connection she feels to the wolf shifter changes everything. Is he the one destined to awaken her?
Henry Hastings is the Alpha of his pack and the village's Protector. He's a man with a vision—all shifters will unite against the evil that haunts Cumbria at night—something the Lupines vehemently oppose. Finding his mate is a young and innocent witch wasn't part of that vision, but the fates have decided.
Being with him places Joanne in danger, as her awakened powers are sought by his enemies.
When disaster strikes, Henry is faced with an impossible choice…

Dare Takes a Look at CouchDB
Dare Obasanjo: Recently I took a look at CouchDB because I saw it favorably mentioned by Sam Ruby and when Sam says some technology is interesting, he's always right
Dare's review of CouchDB is worth a read. (Update: so are Assaf Arkin's and Damien Katz's responses) He gets more things right than wrong. And he doesn't get things wrong so much as he has a tendency to make unqualified statements that need to be qualified. Like statements that things that are interesting to me tend to be interesting to Dare (but to my kids? Not so much). Another example:
One thing that not so interesting is that editing documents is lockless and utilizes optimistic concurrency which means more work for clients.
That's definitely a statement that requires qualification. Perhaps one like this one:
Document oriented database work well for semi-structured data where each item is mostly independent and is often processed or retrieved in isolation.
While that is a good qualification, it errs on being a bit too restrictive, particularly when Dare follows up with:
However there are also lots of Web applications that are about managing heavily structured, highly interrelated data (e.g. sites that heavily utilize tagging or social networking) where the document-centric model doesn't quite fit.
Prior to the web, most hypertext theory centered around bidirectional links and fixed schemas. Approaches that wouldn't scale and don't easily evolve. By contrast, the web is made up of sites that independently update so that Dare can post to his web site without requiring anything like a lock that would affect me posting to mine. Both of our sites enable comments, so there is a limited ability for others to post things, but this tends to operate at such a low rate (dozens of updates per day) that optimistic concurrency isn't much of an issue.
And yet search engines like Google and approaches like map/reduce show that such sites can be reasonably indexed.
Concrete example, from the social networking space. My Facebook profile could be viewed as a document. One with one primary author and limited abilities for others to modify it. And yet things like the News Feed could easily be produced by a map/reduce job. In parallel. Across a large cluster of commodity machines and is highly scalable manner.
To get a perspective on why this is important, consider that I started looking at this from the other side. What happens when your application grows so large that you have no choice but to massively employ techniques like sharding? What do you have to give up? What do you need to add back in in order to mitigate the loss of the things you give up?
At a certain point, referential integrity has to be given up. Scale a bit further, and even the notion of a relation in the relational database sense of the word starts to break down. To cope, you denormalize a bit, not so much for performance reasons (though that's important too), but as a self defense mechanism so that the pieces of data that you do have have enough context to be meaningful.
What replaces a
Department table in a typical Company/Employees database (or one that identifies a Group in a Facebook like appication) when faced with the prospects of mega-sharding? The CouchDB answer is views, ones that are computed by map/reduce jobs that essentially extracts (or maps) "tags" and "social relations" from profile documents and reduces them into documents of their own right.
This leads to
although focusing on JSON instead of XML makes it buzzword compliant
Dare, you say this like it was a bad thing :-). Do you really want to continue to program with Circles, Triangles, and Rectangles? Or would you rather your program looks something like this?
And then to:
and is definitely not a replacement/evolution of relational databases
What I have come to realize is that the very things that make J2EE and Relational Databases suitable for Enterprise scale applications are the very things that act as road bumps on workgroup scale and on web scale applications. Simply put, relational databases will get squeezed on both sides.
Footnote: as I was writing this, I saw Chuck Vose's take. His first bet takes some of my thinking to its logical conclusion, but he doesn't yet see what I see in CouchDB. Perhaps this post will help shed some light on why I think CouchDB is in line with my other bets. His second bet goes off the rails [heh] a bit with:
And I realize that this is all possible in the REST model, but it makes the controllers obscene sometimes.
I'd like to put forward another possibility. While DHH is enamored of REST (and I deserve a small bit of the "blame" for that) his views on "stored procedures" is widely known (search for "Choose a single layer of cleverness"). Perhaps the map/reduce abstraction might just cause him to give a little on the latter in order to maintain the former.
A closing thought: couch.ini talks about a "JsServer", but in reality any language that can evaluate a view, read from
stdin, write to
stdout, and produce and consume JSON could be used.

Learn more about this ministry.
30+ years filming.
600+ gospel videos.
One simple message.
We are a not-for-profit, free community media service, using emerging film and streaming technologies to share the best news we could ever hear!
Because each short film is centred on the most influential person in history, Jesus Christ, the hope, insight and inspiration from his life and teachings have transformed millions of lives.
Jesus often taught using stories and parables. Many of us remember the stories told us from childhood. Many today gain their moral compass from stories as told in movies and television. It seems that "a visual culture demands a visual gospel."
Our film work started with a documentary filmed in the Middle East in 1985. Our first digital films streamed over the internet in 1997 in dialup formats. As internet technologies developed, our work of sharing the gospel via media also improved. Many of our videos are just a few minutes in duration, with longer videos added later.
Our mission and ministry in film has always been to simply share the good news of Jesus Christ.
Of the 600+ gospel films produced, our topics essentially have focussed on the essential "Rs" of " Receive Jesus", "Resurrection Hope", "Return of Jesus", and "The Rest of God". All intersect and exult in the identity, life and ministry of Jesus.
Reflecting over the past two decades, producer John said, "When we started, we really had no idea of how far-reaching and effective media streaming could be. There was always, however, that call to persist in exploring the timelessness of God's grace and truth in our complex world of faith-versus-secularism."
We hope and pray that the good news of the life and teachings of Jesus Christ blesses and strengthens your fellowship and faith in our Saviour Jesus Christ for the glory of our Heavenly Father.
Retelling ancient truths in a fresh, new way!
The video below is one from about 20 years ago when we first set out to experiment with internet video.

Having problems with your Dell Inspiron 5150 Notebook ?
DELL Inspiron 5150 isnt booting
\015 My Dell inspiron 5150 has worked fine for a while. then one day i left it running and was doing something else and i noticed the screen display "Hibernating" i figured the power cord had been bumped loose and it had been running on battery. So i went and made sure the cord was secured and started it back up. The icon that displays battery or AC continued to display battery, I shut down windows and powered the computer down. I noticed that the green indicater light that usually comes on when the battery is charging would not come on. I fiddled with the power cord and got it to flicker then stay on. i left the computer to charge for a little bit and 20 minutes later noticed the light wasnt on. i tried to power up the computer and the fans would spin for 10-15 secs, the screen did nothing and then it would power off. i decided to open it up and upon doing so noticed that the power jack had a broken pin so i did a little temporary repair and made sure the connection was good. NOW when i start the computer- still the screen does not even flicker; the power indicater comes on; drives spin; and fans whir for a few seconds and then it just sits there with indicator light on. ive tried this with no battery, using just AC- same thing. ive tried using only battery- same thing. ive reseated memory chips, ive tried powering up with HD removed- same thing. ive read lots of threads, and i refuse to believe that the motherboard is fried. So what else could it be?\015
Answers :
If it doesn't respond at all with no ram or hdd, it is likely that the board is in fact dead.....sorry. When you say you found a broken pin, I assume you mean one of the contacts from the power jack to the main board had a cracked solder joint and you resoldered it. If this is the case, try disconnecting and reconnecting the connector from the lcd panel to the mainboard. It may just not be making contact. Also, if you boot up with the hd installed, do you see the hd activity led flashing like at a normal boot? If not, sounds like a dead board. Try pulling the optical drive too if you haven't already. Try connecting to an external monitor too.
Hope this helps!

Vincent Piazza of 'Boardwalk Empire' Talks About the Show's Return & Dating in Hollywood
Last season, "Boardwalk Empire" ended on an intensely dramatic and violent note. With a whopping 18 Emmy nominations -- including a few wins -- and the premiere coming up on Sept. 25, Wonderwall caught up Vincent Piazza, the man who plays Lucky Luciano -- and who also happens to be dating Ashlee Simpson. Vincent Piazza talks about working on a violent show, what to expect this season, and the challenges of dating with his newfound fame.
On what will happen with this season:
"A lot of where we left off last season comes to a full-blown boil this season. The drama, the violence, and everything turns up a notch or two. There's a lot of people now vying for what Lucky has and it takes on an interesting shape."
On what we can expect from Lucky Luciano:
"In Season 1, we got to see Lucky as someone coming from the streets being thrust into a world that he feels little bit out of his depths, where he is trying to acclimate himself and learn. This season, he's starting to adjust and trying to maintain his dignity and now achieve in this world."
On dating since the success of the show:
"I like to keep things private, and this is one of those things that's basically an occupational hazard. I try to keep dating low-key. It comes with the career."
On how he spent the show's offseason :
"I had a hard time unwinding out of it. Maybe that's cause of some of the physical choices as well. My hair is naturally straight and dirty blond, and they dye it black and perm it. So every time you wake up and look in the mirror, it's like 'Hmm, all right.' It's not exactly what I look like. It takes a little while to get out of it. Then you also want to stretch out of it and do something completely different, maybe like a British comedy. It can be a little daunting at times, but it's great nonetheless."
On how he comes down from intense episodes:
"You really do need to unwind. The first thing you want to do is find a bed, but you also want to spend the next day just breathing and getting reconnected with yourself. The challenge of the show, since it's such a large ensemble cast, [is that] very rarely do you work consecutive days. Sometimes you only work once only two or three weeks and you are a regular. It's a big commitment that goes into shooting a 16-hour day."
On what it's like to work with Paz de la Huerta, one of the show's breakout stars:
"She's a wonderful free spirit. It's nice to have someone around who keeps you on your toes."
On what he thinks of the set and wardrobe design:
"There are so many cool things that are painstakingly detailed -- with not just the wardrobe, but also the set design, even down to the extras. If I could, I'd probably take my suits. But I'm also kind of an antique buff, so when I go on set and see these amazing ashtrays, planters, chairs and tables, I'm like 'Oh my god, this would be amazing in my apartment.' But I'm never able to fit it inside my jacket to walk off set with it."
On what he likes about working on mobster-esque TV shows:
"With my family, I had done a production of Shakespeare, and they're all like, 'Oh, that's nice.' But then when I told them I was on 'The Sopranos,' they were all like 'Oh my God, amazing!' Then they saw that I was this poufy socialite and they were like 'You don't kill any body? You aren't doing anything violent?' I'm like, 'No, I'm into drugs and the club scene in this, sorry.' It was really fun to work on that show because I was a big fan of the show -- I never wanted it to end."
