BARCELONA, Spain — The opening day of the swimming world championships could have doubled for a Trojan Swim Club meet.
American swimmer Haley Anderson, a recent graduate of the University of Southern California, won the first gold medal of the championships in the 5-kilometer open water and USC-based Oussama Mellouli of Tunisia won the men's event.
"It's a great job for the Trojans today," Mellouli said, thanking his American coaches Catherine Vogt, Jon Urbanchek and Dave Salo. "It's an awesome group."
Anderson was on the US team a few times with Fran Crippen, who died during a sweltering 10K race in the United Arab Emirates in October 2010.
"Fran taught us to be great competitors," Anderson said. "We all learned from Fran and take his memory with us to all open water competitions and live like he lived."
The course ran along the docks, giving spectators a good view of the race in sunny conditions in 75-degree waters and air temperature of 86 degrees.
China's Wu Minxia and Shi Tingmao won the first diving gold medal, earning Wu a record sixth world title in the women's 3-meter synchronized springboard.
The pair's almost flawless execution of all five dives framed by the dramatic backdrop of Barcelona's skyline gave them the top total score of 338.40 points.
Italy's Tania Cagnotto and Francesca Dallape claimed silver with 307.80, while Canada's Pamela Ware and Jennifer Abel took bronze with 292.08.
Wu has won nine world or Olympic gold medals in the 3-meter synchronized springboard. The only major title to escape her was the 2005 world championship when she didn't compete in the event.
Svetlana Romashina won gold synchronized swimming for the solo technical event. Her standout Russian teammate Natalia Ischenko is taking the year off because she's pregnant.
Huang Zuechen of China took silver, and Ona Carbonell took bronze to give host Spain its first medal of the championships.
Romashina earned the 11th world title of her career, to go with her three Olympic golds.
Down at Barcelona's harbor, Anderson's victory erased the bitter disappointment of missing selection for her favored event.
A silver medalist in last year's 10K Olympic race, Anderson finished only eighth in that event at US trials in May on the same day of her graduation from USC. Her only chance to qualify came down to winning the 5K days later, which she did.
Now she has an even bigger title.
"I didn't walk at graduation and I didn't do well in the 10K so it was a pretty tough day," Anderson said. "But I knew if wanted to make the worlds team I had to win the 5K. There really was no other option. I had to put that race out of mind and just win the 5K. I went for it in that 5K to make the team and I've been focused on this 5K ever since then."
Anderson edged Poliana Okimoto of Brazil in a sprint finish, clocking 56 minutes, 34.2 seconds, 0.02 ahead of Okimoto. Another Brazilian, Ana Marcela Cunha, won a group sprint for third and finished 10.5 seconds behind.
Anderson trains under Vogt at USC, and Vogt is the US open water head coach for these championships.
"She wanted to be out front and be smooth and strong and have some good closing speed and she did exactly what we talked about," Vogt said. "She felt like she wanted to take advantage of her event here."
At last year's London Games, Vogt was on Tunisia's staff and coached Mellouli to gold in the 10K.
Having started purely as a pool swimmer, Mellouli's sprinting ability is what sets him apart in the open water. That was evident as he surged ahead of an elite group of rivals as soon as he got within the ropes outlining the finish area.
"I was hoping they wouldn't stay with me," Mellouli said. "Once I put the jets on I was able to take off, finish the race and take the win."
Mellouli clocked 53 minutes, 30.4 seconds. Eric Hedlin of Canada took silver, 1.2 seconds behind, and five-time world champion Thomas Lurz of Germany finished third, 1.8 back.
Including the open water worlds, Lurz had won the 5K title seven consecutive times.
"I knew in the last 50 meters I would not win," Lurz said. "(Mellouli) swims the 100 free five seconds faster than me or more. This is the problem."
Besides the 10K, Mellouli also took bronze in the 1,500-meter freestyle in London to become the first swimmer to win medals in both the pool and open water at the same Olympics. And he won the 1,500 at the 2008 Beijing Games.
The 29-year-old Mellouli had planned to retire after the London Games but he changed his mind a few months later. He only began training again six months ago.
"This year was supposed to be a year off for me," he said. "So to come back here after a solid two months of training and to be on top of the world is quite exciting for me."

The Endless Appeal of Old Pictures
The New York City Department of Records just uploaded nearly a million photos of the city and its inhabitants taken over the past 150 years, like this one of Babe Ruth at the 1936 World Series.
And it turns out we love old pictures, or at least like them very much. So far 85,000 of us have hit the Like button on the Daily Mail's story, which features a selection of the images. (Update 4/30/12: It's now over 92,000 Likes.) Compare that to the social likability of Daily Mail stories that feature more current photos: 31 for a story about Obama on the cover of Rolling Stone, 177 for Madonna breaking the record for #1 albums, and 233 for the new lingerie pictures of a Victoria's Secret model.
It's not just gorgeous old NYC photos that are challenging the perception that social media is just for real-time news that can't wait around for traditional media outlets to break the story. When it rolled out its Open Graph integration last year, London's Independent learned that several quirky stories from the late 1990s were the most shared stories of the early 2010s.

Scale-Up (OLTP)---a Technical Reference Guide for Designing Mission-Critical OLTP Solutions
Want more guides like this one? Go to Technical Reference Guides for Designing Mission-Critical Solutions.
Most applications are designed for good scale-up performance because the design techniques for scale-up are reasonably well understood and are easier to develop and deploy than those for scale-out. (For example, review the bWin case study to understand the scale-up capability achieved by a customer - the link is provided below.)
However, more and more scale-out architectures are being adopted for large-scale deployments in which the expected number of concurrent users is huge and the total cost of ownership (TCO) must be kept low. Good design for scale-up is of utmost importance for both scale-up and scale-out because individual segments of a federated database or application have to perform well for the entire federation to be scalable at a reasonable cost.
The system scalability is dependent on several components, including: the database management system (DBMS) engine, the configuration settings, the database schema, and application design. Some would argue that the database schema and the application design are more important that the database engine component. Therefore, be sure that the application component gets sufficient emphasis and resources to make the system scalable.
Best Practices
The following resources provide examples of customer scenarios for scale-up solutions, in addition to general scale-up reference material. (Note that the full URLs for the hyperlinked text are provided in the Appendix at the end of this document.)
The SQL customer advisory team (SQL CAT) blog post Analyzing I/O Characteristics and Sizing Storage Systems for SQL Server Database Applications1 discusses input/output (I/O) in relation to Microsoft SQL Server database applications.
The SQL CAT blog post Data Compression: Strategy, Capacity Planning and Best Practices2 explains how the data compression feature in the SQL Server 2008 database software can help reduce the size of the database and improve the performance of I/O intensive workloads. Note that I/O is one of the most common bottleneck in current SQL Server systems.
The white paper The Data Performance Guide 20083 describes techniques for bulk loading large data sets into SQL Server.
The SQL CAT blog posts Tuning the Performance of Backup Compression in SQL Server 20084 and Tuning Backup Compression Part 25 provide guidance related to tuning options for backup performance, and discuss how backup compression interacts with other features of SQL Server 2008.
The white paper Troubleshooting Performance Problems in SQL Server 20086 provides step-by-step guidelines for diagnosing and troubleshooting common performance problems using publicly available tools such as SQL Server Profiler, Microsoft Performance Monitor, dynamic management views, and SQL Server Extended Events and the data collector.
The SQL CAT blog post Resolving PAGELATCH Contention on Highly Concurrent INSERT Workloads7 describes the process of diagnosing a problem and then using table partitioning to work around it.
Managing SQL Server Workloads with Resource Governor
8 is a good starting point for understanding how Resource Governor can help in scaling up. Additionally, review the Support Engineers blog Resource Governor and MAXDOP, Parallel plan generation9 for practical pointers.
The SQL CAT post Scripts and Tools for Performance Tuning and Troubleshooting SQL Server 200510 is a toolbox full of information to make performance tuning and troubleshooting easier.
The SQL CAT blog post Top SQL Server 2005 Performance Issues for OLTP Applications11 discusses some of the top performance bottlenecks for OLTP applications.
See DBCC Checks and Terabyte-Scale Databases12 for best practices on Database Console Command (DBCC) checks and terabyte-scale databases. Note that it is very important to regularly run DBCC in very large databases (VLDBs).
The white paper Service Broker: Performance and Scalability Techniques13 describes a large scale customer scenario and the techniques employed in scaling SQL Server Service Broker to process tens of thousands of messages per second on one server.
The white paper SQL Server 2005 Waits and Queues14 approaches SQL Server performance tuning through a methodology called "Waits and Queues."
The white paper Plan Caching in SQL Server 200815 explains how the SQL Server plan cache operates and how to avoid excessive recompilation.
The article Instant Initialization – What, Why and How?16 explains that instant file initialization (IFI) is very important for large databases. Note that implementing IFI requires consideration of the security implications.
Online indexing operations can help keep the database available while undergoing maintenance operations, as discussed in Online Indexing Operations in SQL Server 2005.17
Windows System Resource Manager
18 is a component that some customers use to manage the CPU resources for various instances of SQL Server executing under a Windows Server instance. Note that we recommend that you do not use Windows System Resource Manager to manage SQL Server memory usage. The SQL Server memory setting configuration should be used to manage the memory usage.
Case Studies and References
Examples of successful architectures are described in the following case studies and white papers:
bwin: Global Online Gaming Company Deploying SQL Server 2008 to support 100 Terabytes
The Progressive Group: Progressive Prepares for Future Growth, Gains Agility with SQL Server 2005

Questions and Considerations
This section provides questions and issues to consider when working with your customers.
Experience shows that when new systems are tested and deployed, installations frequently encounter scalability issues in this sequence (though note that there are always exceptions):
Application scalability issues
Database schema and configuration issues
Internal database management system (DBMS) issues.
- Application scalability issues
Ask and look for data access patterns that adversely impact scalability, including the following:
A large number of concurrent users can lead to locking contention
Accessing unnecessary data can lead to wasted resources
Concurrently updating data can lead to contention
Appropriate indexing can avoid long-running queries and avoid blocking issues
- A large number of concurrent users can lead to locking contention
It is useful to perform an actual benchmark with some skeletal code to help ensure successful scalability; however, this may not be practical in many cases. Another good approach is to look for an existing equivalent benchmark; this is often a practical approach for an independent software vendor (ISV) application. If, for example, ISV package XYZ is used by installation A to serve 2 million users and installation B to serve 5 million users, you can conclude that with proper execution, installation C can also serve 4 million users and you can estimate the required hardware resources.
Do not forget the standard operations, like backup, restore, and CHECKDB, or features like database compression, backup compression, and resource governance. These can help with scalability and with meeting maintenance windows.
I/O subsystem performance has a major influence on scalability. For more information, see the SQL CAT blog post Analyzing I/O Characteristics and Sizing Storage Systems for SQL Server Database Applications1

CYPRESS, Texas (AP) — A man accused of stabbing more than a dozen people at a suburban Houston community college chose his victims at random, authorities said Wednesday, going from one floor to another as he used a razor utility knife to slice people in the neck and face.
Neighbors and the grandmother of Dylan Quick were at a loss to explain the attack on the Lone Star Community College campus in Cypress — an attack that authorities say the 20-year-old had fantasized about for years. All 14 of the people who were injured were expected to recover.
"To me he's just always been a good kid, loving. He's close to his family. He's close to his mother and father," Dolores Quick, his 85-year-old grandmother, said in a telephone interview from her home in Dearborn, Mich. "It's just really torn me up. I'm just so sad for everybody."
She said she doesn't see her grandson on a regular basis, but that she talked to him on the phone every so often.
Officials at the school and people who lived in Quick's middle class neighborhood described him as well-liked and friendly, but also withdrawn.
Harris County Sheriff Adrian Garcia said while Quick has been cooperative and forthcoming with investigators, the motive for the attack was still a mystery.
"He has shared with us that he's had fantasies about stabbing people since the age of 8," Garcia said. "He did share that he had been planning this event for some time."
Classes resumed Wednesday at the bustling campus where more than 18,000 students take courses. Students and others were overheard talking about the attack, riveted by the sequence of events that left 14 injured, two critically. Students said workers were seen Wednesday morning washing away blood stains from outside the school's health science building.
Campus President Audre Levy said Quick had worked on the school's library for about a year and that "the library staff had fond things to say of him" and that many of the library staff were "very surprised" by the allegations.
"There are no signs that he was a problem student. Many of the faculty who had him reported he was a good student," she said.
The attack took place on the first and second floors of the health science building, but investigators weren't yet certain on which floor it began. They were working Wednesday to piece together the sequence of events.
Quick slashed at his victims with a razor utility knife, and prosecutors said a scalpel was found in his backpack. A bloody knife tip was removed from the chest of one of the victims, according to prosecutors.
All but two of the victims had been released from local hospitals by Wednesday.
Levy said college police were notified of the attack at 11:13 a.m. Tuesday and that Quick was taken into custody at 11:17 a.m. Authorities said students assisted by tackling Quick and holding him down outside the health science building until police arrived.
Quick remained in custody Wednesday and a spokeswoman with the Harris County district attorney's office said no additional charges were expected. She said Quick has been ordered to undergo a psychological evaluation.
Court records did not list an attorney for Quick, and his parents did not return several phone calls Wednesday seeking comment.
Michael Lincoln, who lives next door to Quick and his parents, recalled borrowing a ladder from the family in January so he could remove some branches that had fallen on his roof after a storm. Quick lent him the ladder but then proceeded to use it to remove the branches himself, saying, "That's what neighbors are for," according to Lincoln.
"I never would have expected (the attack) from him. I guess you never really know anybody," Lincoln said.
Dolores Quick said she had spoken with her son, Dylan Quick's father, earlier this week and he had indicated that the family members "were all OK."
"It's just very, very tragic, unbelievable," she said.

The recently revealed video of Governor Mitt Romney at a fundraising event last May is changing the election conversation. I hope it does, but at an even deeper level than the responses so far. There is certainly politics here, some necessary factual corrections, and some very deep ironies. But underneath it all is a fundamental question of what our spiritual obligations to one another and, for me, what Jesus' ethic of how to treat our neighbors means for the common good.
Many are speaking to the political implications of Romney's comments, his response, and what electoral implications all this might have. As a religious leader of a non-profit faith-based organization, I will leave election talk to others.
Others are trying to clarify the facts of Romney's video which spoke of 47 percent of the American people who don't pay income tax and are dependent on the government. Many have pointed out that the people singled out do indeed pay other taxes (payroll, sales, and more). According to the Tax Policy Center, of those who pay no income tax, half do not because the income from their work is below the taxable minimum. Three-quarters of the remaining people are senior citizens or low-income working families with children who receive specific tax credits, such as the child tax credit or earned income tax credit. Children from low-income families do indeed receive health care from Medicaid and nutritional support including, "free" breakfast and lunches at school. Many have also pointed out that those receiving some government assistance include not only the elderly on Medicare, but also veterans who get help after coming home from fighting our wars and college students who need loans to go to school.
There is also an irony which always attends these discussions of who gets government aid. Why don't we also talk about the billions of dollars of subsidies that go to oil and gas companies every year, the huge farm subsidies to agri-business, the billions of tax payer dollars that bailed out the nation's biggest banks after they help set our Great Recession into gear, or the corporations and banks who got public funds to build their sports stadiums and arenas? Or why don't we mention every American home owner who gets a very valuable mortgage income tax deduction every year when they file their tax returns? Are all of those bankers, corporate executives, and middle and upper-middle class home owners to be regarded as losers who depend on the government for their lives?
But at an even deeper level, there is the spiritual question of our obligations to one another. How do Jesus' instructions of the way to treat our neighbor, echoed in all of our faith traditions, relate to this conversation? All the focus has been on the Romney comments to a question, but what about the question itself, and the questioner, whoever that was. Is the person who asked the question a religious person? When the questioner asks, according to NBC News, when people will learn to "take care of themselves," does he know what his faith community says about our responsibilities to help take care of each other? Clearly, that is not merely a question for government, but for a whole society and its commitment to the common good. But the Bible does clearly specify government's role in promoting the common good--and for protecting the poor in particular. Read the Scriptural texts.
To believe that those in need are always "other people," as the questioner suggests, is both a statement of denial of the facts above, but a much more troubling expression of denying our fellow citizens the spiritual designation of our neighbors, and even our brothers and sisters. To the questions of whether we are our brothers and sisters keeper; the religious answer is an unmistakable Yes. That's what all of our faith traditions teach and it is absolutely central to a necessary recovery of the common good--which has seemingly been lost in our politics and in our society. How we best meet the needs of our fellow citizens and neighbors is a very important and creative conversation; but to suggest it isn't both our civic and spiritual responsibility to do so is very alarming.
Governor Romney spoke to these issues in another recently released video requested by the faith community's the Circle of Protection asking what he would do about the highest poverty rates in 50 years. He said:
President Obama also responded to the invitation of the church leaders with these remarks:
Both of those videos should be seen by everyone who has now watched the Romney donor video. And hopefully, this controversy could spark a national conversation about what we must do to respond to the painful numbers of Americans who are struggling so much no matter how hard they work. If this discussion could put the issue of poverty on the agenda of the national election and the debates which are soon to come; then this latest political incident might have some redemption for the common good.

Looking at the list we have at least 5 of us (Me, Tom, Swini, Rospicer, and Bobbins) that could be travelling up the M1 & M6 to Birmingham.
Was thinking about meeting up at Toddington Services.
I reckon I'd be at Toddington somewhere around 10.30-11, with and estimate arrival on site at 3pm. That would give about 2 hours daylight for setting up camp?
Would anyone be interested?

200: As in The Committee of 200, a group of highly successful and highly influential female professionals. Last week, I was a guest speaker at The Committee of 200's (C200) annual conference outside of Dallas. Have you ever heard of the C200? Probably not - membership is by invitation only for women who either own businesses larger than $15 million or wield corporate responsibility over a budget larger than $250 million. Those aren't easy things to do, regardless of gender.
I heard some powerful stories while in Texas and was impressed by the close bonds within the community.
Earlier in the week, I attended the Web 2.0 Expo in New York. The event unfolded on a Javits-sized scale - which anyone who attends conferences knows means "pretty big." (LVCC-scale would be the West coast equivalent, maybe). Almost all of the people I met there were people who I first met online - through blogs, tweets, or social networks. And subsequently seeing them in person almost seems like meeting a long lost pen pal in person.
Consider a third example of community - the readers of this blog, many of whom are going to meet up next month in Arizona. I'm sure the people who attend will be energized and excited to meet the people they've been exchanging comments with and maybe even debate an issue or two in person.
It strikes me that no matter how many awesome features and user interface changes roll out on web community sites - like "social media advertising" - our need to connect face-to-face does not diminish. Probably gets even stronger.

A test for arsenic in Kenai's water supply showed levels slightly above the EPA's standard for drinking water.
Last fall, Kenai opened a new water treatment facility and had plans to open a new well near the facility to address elevated levels of the naturally-occuring toxin. However, a delay in opening the new well coupled with peak water demand in the past few weeks prompted the city to bring older wells — ones that consistently test above the EPA's arsenic standard — back into production.
"We haven't been using these wells," said Rick Koch, Kenai City Manager. "From beginning to end they're not going to be in service probably a month because as soon as it starts raining and we don't have the level of demand in the water system, we're not going to need them."
Koch said the city's test — which came in at 11.8 parts per billion according to the DEC — was conducted near the source of the high-arsenic water and would be repeated throughout the system.
"One part per billion over the limit ... when you're talking about one part per billion that's a fantastically small number that you may exceed a limitation by," Koch said.
Last year, when the water treatment plant came online in mid-June, Koch said the new well should be operational in the fall, however delays in engineering plans and DEC permitting at the site mean it will not be connected to the city's water for at least three months.
The city applied for an "approval to construct" permit from DEC in September, however it was only for a portion of the well, said, Scott Forgue, regional engineering coordinator for the Kenai Southeast Area of the drinking water program through the DEC.
"It got to be late in the season and they didn't have all the information to allow me to permit that new well and issue the plan approval for the construction," Forgue said. "They took the approach of getting the approval to construct just the water line portion of it. I gave them an approval to construct that in September because that's all the information they could get for me."
Forgue said he did not get an engineering plan from the city detailing the well and the well pump until the spring, he approved those plans in May.
While the city is not required to get an approval to construct permit to finish building the new well, Forgue said it would need a permit when the well became a public water system source.
Koch said the city would not begin construction until it received the DEC's approval.
"70 percent of the project (funding) comes through state grants, but we cannot start construction of that (well tie-in) until we had authority to construct from the DEC or we don't get reimbursement from the grant," Koch said.
It will take several weeks before construction can begin on the final portion of the well as some of the pieces must be manufactured specially for the project.
"There isn't enough call for that size of hardware that manufacturers make it and then it just sits on inventory, Koch said.
Kenai will not be required by DEC to inform its residents of the elevated arsenic until further testing can be done, said Cindy Christian, statewide compliance and monitoring manager for DEC.
"We're working continuing to have them collect samples throughout the distribution system," she said. "We're not just kind of resting on our laurels, we're continuing to work on the city and coming up with a good sampling plan."
Kenai has been working to find a solution to arsenic in its water supply for several years, it drilled several exploratory wells and pilot tested an arsenic-removal treatment program before applying for an exemption to the EPA's standards in 2006, according to Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation data.
While the new well has been delayed, Koch said he did not think the old wells — which required the permission of DEC to bring back online — would be in use for very long.
"It's supposed to start raining on Sunday and if what the weather report shows is accurate then we'll be able to stop using those wells," he said.

Kragel Likes Challenge of Being Interim Dean
Dr. Peter Kragel. Photo by Cliff Hollis.
GREENVILLE, N.C. (Mar. 1, 2001) — If you need to schedule an appointment with Dr. Peter Kragel, try calling one of his three offices: there's one he has as chairman of the Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, the other in the Pitt County Memorial Hospital laboratory as chief of pathology and then the newest in the dean's office of the Brody School of Medicine at East Carolina University.
Following the resignation of Dr. James Hallock in December, ECU Chancellor Richard Eakin named Kragel interim dean of the medical school. In addition to being dean, Hallock was also vice chancellor for health sciences. Dr. Ann Jobe is serving in that position in the interim.
Why does Kragel think he was chosen for the job? He feels an important aspect of the dean's role is to support departments and faculty and provide an environment where they can excel.
"I've been supportive of many departments since I've been here," he said. His record of support was likely an important consideration in his selection for the interim position, he added.
Kragel joined the medical school as chairman of the Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine in July 1998. At the time, he also was named chief of pathology at PCMH. For the eight years before coming to ECU, he was with the Truman Medical Center/University of Missouri-Kansas City, joining the pathology department as an associate professor and leaving as professor and chairman of the department. He was also director of the pathology residency program and the pathology course director.
According to Dave McRae, chief executive officer of University Health Systems of Eastern Carolina, Kragel's experience makes him an excellent choice for interim dean. "We're exceptionally pleased with Dr. Kragel being named interim dean for the medical school. He brings tremendous experience as chairman for an important department serving the hospital. Also, his personal maturity and judgment will be an asset in the coming months as the hospital and School of Medicine deal with the complex health care issues facing us today."
Dr. Paul Phibbs, who has served as a member of the Executive Committee of the medical school with Kragel, said he believes the decision by the chancellor to name his colleague as interim dean was well thought out. Phibbs, who came to ECU in 1986 as chairman of the Department of Microbiology and Immunology, admitted some surprise when he first heard that a rather new department chairman had been named interim dean. "But because of my interaction with him on the Executive Committee, it didn't surprise me after thinking about it," he said.
"I think he has rapidly learned the details of the administration of the school. He has immersed himself in complex negotiations with the hospital for interactions that are vital for the two institutions," Phibbs said. "He also served effectively as acting chairman for the Department of Radiation Oncology while doing his own job as chairman of his department. And I think he was an extremely effective member of the Executive Committee, and that gave me confidence that he was a good choice. I'm sure he will do a really good job."
The Executive Committee is made up of six department chairmen and a handful of other medical school administrators. Kragel will no longer serve as a member of the Executive Committee in his new position; however, as interim dean he's free to attend the meeting at any time. Dr. Ralph Whatley, chairman of the Department of Medicine, has filled Kragel's vacancy on the committee.
Phibbs added that Kragel's specialty, pathology and laboratory medicine, allows him to have a connection with all faculty members. "I think he is a good person for communicating with the basic science and the clinical sides of the school. He has always shown strong interest in both the basic and the clinical sciences," he said.
And Kragel's demeanor lends itself to the daily hurdles of

Tainah was a smoking hot Brazilian babe that had us from the start. She was gorgeous, with nice tan skin, a slim waist, nice ripe tits, thick thighs, an ass that belonged on a goddess, and a hot Latina pussy. We first caught up with her while she was hanging out at the pool. Tainah was looking fine as hell in a tiny bikini and thong. That delicious ass sticking out of the water had us drooling. She stripped naked to give us the full view then she out on quite the show, as she shook that ass all over. That got her horny, so Tainah started to play with herself.

She got that pussy nice and wet for Tony when he showed up. Tony wasted no time licking that pussy before he buried his cock in it. He stroked Tainah's pussy deep and hard, but what she really wanted was to have her asshole filled by cock. Tony spread that butt and eased his cock in. Tainah ass was as tight as they come. Tony gave that butt long slow strokes, which loosened Tainah up nicely. Then he went deep in that ass and pounded it, as Tainah's nice big tits bounced up and down. When Tony couldn't take anymore, he pulled out and blew his load all over her perfect Latina tits.

but printf is inarguably a better string manipulation idiom than stringstreams.
Not when it causes a crash, or invalid output...
Not something like ocaml's printf (and hence f#'s), or things that add similar(arguably more powerful) stuff to haskell *are* better IMO. But really they are all very complex under the hood.
One can argue that, now tooling has improved in some languages you can avoid the most common issues in the simple (the format string is a plain literal) case that the actual impact is lower of course. But when r# was installed it found an awful lot of 'wrong number of arguments' bugs in our code base that were festering in rarely used code paths, so I can't argue that without it it should be fine.

Neil LaBute's Broadway play "reasons to be pretty" comes to Kennedy Theatre
Production marks the final play that long-time Professor Glenn Cannon will direct before retirementUniversity of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa
Publicity Director, Dept of Theatre and Dance
The University of Hawai'i at Mānoa's Department of Theatre and Dance presents "reasons to be pretty" in the Earle Ernst Lab Theatre March 14, 15, 16, 17, 23, and 24 at 8 p.m., and March 18 and 25 at 2 p.m. Nominated for 3 Tony Awards during its run on Broadway in 2009, "reasons to be pretty" is a funny and savage production that pits two young men against the two women they love--or pretend to-- where beauty is the only negotiator.
Acclaimed American playwright Neil LaBute is known for his raw language which is a key element of his writing and permeates the play as he continues to explore contemporary social communication. America's obsession with physical beauty is confronted headlong in this brutal and exhilarating work when four young working class friends and lovers become increasingly dissatisfied with their dead-end lives and with each other. This hopelessly romantic drama about the hopelessness of romance features the talented cast of Brittni Michele Shambaugh (who plays Carly), Jasmine Fernandez (Steph), Brendin Brown (Greg), and Travis Ross (Kent).
"Working on this show has been a truly excellent experience," stated Shambaugh, who was last seen on the Kennedy theatre mainstage in the fall playing "Can't Say No" Addo Annie in "Oklahoma!." "Because it is such a small cast, we have been able to really bond with one another and grow together as actors while doing the challenging and rewarding work of exploring the different levels of these very complex characters."
Director Glenn Cannon, in his 44th year as Professor of Theatre at UH Mānoa, recently announced that "reasons to be pretty" will be the last play he will direct at Kennedy Theatre prior to his retirement next season. Cannon, whose career in acting and directing spans six decades and includes Broadway, TV, film and theatre credits, is a local legend in the Hawai'i community. Audiences will have the opportunity to stay and chat with the director, actors and designers following the Friday, Mar. 16 performance. This production is for mature audiences only.
Joining the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa theatre faculty in 1968, Cannon has directed numerous plays at Kennedy Theatre, including many of the classics and contemporary plays of the Western canon. Some of the highlights include "West Side Story", the world premiere of Ed Sakamoto's "Our Hearts were Touched with Fire," "Pygmalion," starring his colleague and good friend Terence Knapp, and a bicentennial production of "Oklahoma!" Cannon has also appeared on many Hawaiʻi-based TV shows, including "Magnum, P.I.," "Jake and the Fatman," "Tour of Duty," "Island Son" and "Lost." But his most memorable local role was Attorney General John Manicote in the original version of "Hawaiʻi Five-0." He is currently in his 18th year as President of the Screen Actors' Guild—Hawai'i branch.
"This production marks the final play I will direct at Kennedy Theatre prior to my retirement from the university sometime next season," explained Cannon. "I've directed 155 plays over the years, the majority of them at Kennedy Theatre. It has been a splendid run, and I plan to continue to direct in the community as time goes by," he added.
The "reasons to be pretty" design team includes scenic and costume designer Donald Quilinquin, lighting designer Ray Moschuk and sound designer and co-director Tyler Nichols.
Tickets for "reasons to be pretty" are available now at www.etickethawaii.com, at outlets, and by phone at 944-2697. Beginning Mar. 12, purchases may be made at the Kennedy Theatre Box Office Monday through Friday from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. with extended hours on days of performance. Prices are $15 regular; $14 seniors, military, UH faculty/staff; $12 students; $5 UHM students with a validated spring 2012 UHM photo ID. Ticket prices include all service fees. For more information or disability access, call the Kennedy Theatre Box Office at 956-7655.

TRAINING: My training hasn't changed for this fight, just the emphasis on what I am training (I'm not telling). I am still training upwards of six days a week, two to three times a day. I am training my boxing, Muay Thai, wrestling and JJ. I will say that I have put some extra emphasis on my conditioning. I feel that I have always been in good shape for my fights but I am going to be in phenomenal shape for this one. My gym, The HardCore Gym, recently became an American Top Team affiliate. I am fortunate to be able to spend some time down in Coconut Creek training and consider Ricardo Liborio to be a good friend. Nevertheless, my primary training has been and always will be at The HardCore Gym in Athens, GA. I have a great facility, great training partners, and a great coach/trainer in Adam Singer, my brother and best friend.
When and why did you start training for fighting? I have been involved in martial arts since I was eleven. My brother started teaching me kickboxing as he was taking it. As we got older and grew closer as brothers we started taking karate, tae kwon do, and other more traditional martial arts. We both have high school wrestling backgrounds as well. After a long evolution we got involved in BJJ, boxing and Muay Thai.
I have always enjoyed competition. I competed in boxing and Muay Thai before getting into MMA. It felt like a natural progression. I was training in all these things and instead of keeping them all separate we started putting it all together. Since I was no longer specializing in any one particular art I started to compete in NHB fighting. I believe that MMA is the purest of all combat sports. Competing in MMA gives my training purpose and pushes me to be the best.
I told Joe Silva that night I wanted in the UFC. When the opportunity for TUF 3 came along it was a chance to prove I belonged at that level. I spent all my years before the show training and fighting part-time. I now had in front of me an opportunity to be a full-time fighter. To be able to train full-time and fight is a chance of a lifetime. I decided school could wait. I wanted to make the most of this opportunity and see how far I could go. Fighting it the UFC proves I have made it to the highest level. It is a personal victory regardless what my future holds.

In addition to the style of chair you choose and the type of material it is made of you also want to take in consideration the color of the accent chair. No matter how great the type of chair you choose, if it is the wrong color it can totally throw off the decor of the room. If you want to add warmth to a room choose neutral colors like brown, beige, yellow, and gold. If you would like to make your accent chair the focus of the room, choose a strong, bold color like red or black. If you would like to add a bit of spring to the room choose a pastel color like light blue or pale pink.
Everybody loves to redecorate rooms every now and then. Is not it amazing how sometimes just a few added touches can transform a room and give it a totally different look? Its fun to add different touches to a room to bring that added touch of style and pizazz but who has the money these days to totally redecorate a room? There are all kinds of things to buy such as flooring, furniture, window fixtures, and the list goes on and on.

Back in 2000, I had the misfortune to have to take a prescription that meant I couldn't drive. I sold the daily car I had at that point (one plain-Jane black 5-speed Cavalier coupe - a transportation appliance at best). A couple of years went by, and I changed doctors. The new guy prescribed something different for my condition, so I needed wheels once again. I could: A) spend $4,500 on a cheap used car that would just blend into the woodwork or, B) Find a really decent Corvair set up the way I like it. Now THAT car doesn't blend in. I found this '66 Corvair in Denver, CO, on eBay. The engine had been rebuilt by a nationally-known Corvair specialist shortly before the previous owner put it into storage for about ten years. It came out of the rebuild capable of putting 220 horsepower down to the pavement. Not bad for 164 unblown, carbureted cubic inches! It also had new tires all around. I won the auction, and flew out with my wife to drive it home. A fantastic road trip, and it cost half as much as shipping it would have. It became my daily driver for the next three years, until, in late '05, I had it in for state inspection at a friends Corvair restoration shop. While it was up on the lift, I got to see just how little rust the car had underneath. I decided at that point that it had seen its last winter of Pennsylvania road salt! It is now my nice spring day car, and a pleasure to drive. It still draws attention wherever I go with it.
UPDATE: I had to sell my beloved Ashley in August of 2009 due to the nation's lousy economy. My overtime had gone away and and my wife lost her job due to a work-related disability that they refused to accept responsibility for, so we just couldn't justify the expense of nearly $100/month to insure the third car in a two-driver household. Our mortgage was a couple of months behind, so sadly I took a friend up on his standing offer on her. As promised, he has given her the complete cosmetic restoration she so badly deserved. Of course, she didn't need anything mechanically - I always kept her up 100% mechanically. Furthermore, he gave me right of first refusal, so if he should ever decide to sell her, I get the first opportunity to buy her back.
This car has sold on 3/11/11 Here it is the little old schoolteachers pride and joy.After selling her house on Long Island,the schoolteacher could not bring her Camaro to her retirement home in Florida.She had to surrender the car after it had lived a pampered life in her heated garage.After only grinding the pavement for 13800 miles,it was loaded onto a trailor and brought to N.J. for some needed maintenance to the carb and fuel delivery systems.All her filters and fluids were changed and updated as needed.Other than that all her original equiptment is still in place and operating in top form.All the exsisting interior parts were cleaned and detailed and she is ready for her new home.Shw will live a long life from here forward with minimal service and maintenance.

I am so very satisfied with this purchase! Just had purchased my vehicle, and did not want spots/damage done to interior carpeting. I have children, and we are not easy on car interiors! I have had my mats in place for many (winter) months, now, and I am 100percent satisfied with my purchase! Just the other day, I had turned a corner, and my hot mocha had tipped. I was unable to pull over immediately. My mocha stayed on the mat without spilling on to the carpeting, best investment ever!

4 weeks to change the direction of our country.
Thanks for volunteering to come out on the doors with us to ensure Rupa Huq remains the MP for Ealing Central and Acton!
Yet again another Tory Prime Minister has put the interests of their party before those of the country.
"An empowered Conservative Government would be nothing short of a catastrophe for the nation and would pose an existential threat to the NHS and our public services; as they crash head-on into an ideologically driven hard Brexit and austerity frenzy. I will be fighting them toe-to-toe on this. Labour always has been and still remains the best hope for defeating the Tories."

Update: T-Mobile has posted an official guide here.
If you have a Samsung Vibrant, the wait for Android 2.2 FroYo is now over. We reported yesterday that T-Mobile would be pushing out an over-the-air update, but it's actually available right now via a wired update. All you have to do is download Samsung's update program called Kies Mini, connect your phone to the your computer via USB, and watch the magic happen.
I don't have a Vibrant on hand to test the update out, but many users have reported success so far. If you run into any problems at all, hit up the official T-Mobile forums for help.
Please let us know how the update performs if you have a Vibrant. How does Flash Player 10.1 perform? Is the GPS performance improved? Did you try making any WiFi calls with T-Mobile's app?

The young man was clearly uneasy. Most people would insist that he had no cause for worry. After all, he would soon receive his M.B.A. from a very prestigious business school, had already been offered a contract by a large investment banking firm and, if he accepts it, would have a starting salary of $200,000 (which is ordinarily doubled in the second year). Why the unease? Would that every graduate were so fortunate.
But he told me that he had worked last summer as an intern in this firm and soon realized that it was deeply involved in mergers and buyouts. Smaller companies were absorbed and, as a result, shareholders were made very happy. Stock values went up and dividends increased. This also meant, however, that thousands of workers found themselves out of a job. He had at least started to wonder about the morality of all of this. Did he really want to spend his life working in this type of business? Could one save one's soul in investment banking?
I asked if any questions about business ethics were ever raised in his classes. No, he said, never. Much is said, however, about marketing, competition and maximizing profits. Nothing, it seems, is really wrong or bad unless it does not work in our capitalistic world.
In an annual Aims of Education address, the former chairman of the political science department quickly became famous when he clearly and honestly told 1,000 first-year students that they should expect no ethical guidance from their new school, the University of Chicago. The university is, he insisted, totally amoral. Though it is not, one would hope, an immoral place, it is dedicated to a rigorous search for facts, for data, and is neither able nor willing to provide moral leadership. Such, at least, is the theory.
But what happens in practice? It is hard to believe, even in this postmodern era, when everyone is allowed his or her own set of unquestioned values and all becomes relative, that considerations of good and evil never arise. Are professors of law, medicine, philosophy, English, history or any other discipline always value free as they lecture and lead discussions?
Although the young man enrolled in the business school and the professor of political science may both hold that the university is amoral, convictions and attitudes do surface. Prejudices will also be revealed.
One recent graduate put it this way: Numerous students and faculty have ambivalent feelings toward followers of Christ, ranging from bewilderment to hatred. I received a sharp lesson in the latter as a first year student in the college, when in the course on classics of social and political thought the professor announced in class, I hate Christians.' He then proceeded to attempt to remove God from Aquinas and pronounced Thomistic philosophy worthless if it could not stand without God.
Many chaplains at other schools know of similar incidents. Professors who are otherwise liberal and intelligent seem to find it terribly difficult to move beyond the Crusades, the Inquisition and Galileo. Christianity and the Catholic Church in particular are still seen as the enemy.
Pius XII has become the new evil genius, and a woman's right to choose abortion is accepted as beyond argument. At a recent lecture on the University of Chicago campus, the Rev. Mel White, founder of Soulforce, denounced the official teachings of the Roman Catholic Church about sexual minorities which lead to suffering and death for our lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender sisters and brothers. The clearly implied question is: how can an institution whose teachings cause suffering and death be tolerated?
In the United States today, about 90 percent of Catholic college and university students are enrolled in state and private secular institutions. Notre Dame, Fordham, Georgetown and all of the other Catholic schools are educating the remaining 10 percent in an ambiance in which, it is piously hoped, ethical and theological issues are taken seriously and discussed carefully. In other words, the great majority of American Catholics are receiving their higher education at universities and colleges that are either amoral or perhaps aggressively positivistic. There are, of course, happy exceptions, but most of these students arrive with minimal religious education. They are young men and women who are frequently idealistic, rarely antagonistic, but quite ignorant of a Christian and Catholic heritage. They are certainly not prepared for a subtle or quite open attack on their religion led by a polished and revered professor or by peers in the dorms.
The U.S. bishops have come to realize the importance of campus ministry, but personnel and funding are not easy to find. In Chicago's center, the so-called Loop, there are now 57,000 students studying everything from law and biology to graphic design and dance. (Even the huge state universities seldom have more than 40,000 students.) How many chaplains are needed for such a demanding ministry? What qualifications are necessary? What is a realistic budget? Will the Catholics among those 57,000 students find an oasis in downtown Chicago where they can be comfortable in talking about ethical concerns? Will there be an intelligent and articulate chaplain to care about them and offer them the wisdom of the Gospel? How will they experience Catholic worship and preaching during these formative years of college? The same questions, of course, confront many other dioceses.
There is no doubt that the fine Catholic colleges and universities of the United States must be encouraged and helped to continue their truly admirable work of higher education. But there are all those other young Catholics, the 90 percent who fill the classrooms of the nation's state and private secular schools. They present our church with an enormous challenge and an exciting pastoral opportunity.
I am a senior at a Jesuit university and am not convinced that my school offers a "value-laden" curriculum in a comprehensive way, as it promises to do. I do not claim to have a solution to the many problems in Catholic higher education, but I am wary of the claim that Catholic universities are doing a fine job. In many ways, we struggle with the same issues that non-Catholic colleges do.
