Or if you meant "Witch chunked encoding NOT in use" then it's still the same, by closing the connection in the middle of the response. How easy the error is to detect for the recipient then depends on the encoding or format of the response. T-E: gzip/deflate both have stream structure and clearly indicates premature closure (except for the hypothetical case of a sender sending multiple members in a gzip stream and crashing just between two members). If no T-E is used and Content-Length is used then it's trivially detected by the response beeing too short. If no T-E is used and no Content-Length then it's tricker as the receier then has to fully parse the response and from that judge if it's complete or not, and then guess if this is due to a server failure or if the object at the server really is corrupted/truncated...

|Did BigCouch recently change sequence IDs to be arrays?
|Tue, 15 Jan 2013 17:32:56 GMT
I just got a bug report about TouchDB failing to sync with BigCouch. From the symptoms, it appears that BigCouch has recently changed its sequence IDs (as returned from _changes) from strings to arrays. Is that true? I don't have a local BigCouch to test against currently, but I just confirmed that Cloudant is still using strings for sequence IDs; they look like this: > "last_seq":"5865-g1AAAADzeJzLYWBgYMlgTmFQSElKzi9KdUhJMtbLTS3KLElMT9VLzskvTUnMK9HLSy3JAapkSmRIsv___39WEgMD61ZUbeZ4tCU5AMmkepjOw6g6TfDozGMBkgwNQAqoeT9Y913i7YXoPgDRDbF7ShYAyj1QSA" If BigCouch is now using arrays, then I need to fix my code to serialize them properly in the "?since" parameter to the _changes feed URL. But this is a bit confusing — if I JSON-encode the sequence ID, then IDs that are strings will now have double-quotes around them, and I don't know if Cloudant will understand that. Do I need to special-case based on the type, i.e. stripping the quotes if it's a string? —Jens

Editor's Note: This message was sent to me by Ashley McGuigan from the University of Hawaii who has established fund raising efforts to aid Fiji.
Cyclone Winston
Who We Are
My name is Ashley McGuigan and I am a PhD student in the Botany Department at the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa. I am also part of a larger group of students and researchers who have been working with 20 rural villages across Fiji to understand how traditional knowledge adapts and changes over time and how this helps communities be resilient to natural disasters, such as Cyclone Winston. This knowledge is innovative and incorporates new technologies that promote progress and stability in unpredictable island environments.
The Problem
Some of the people that were worst affected by the cyclone were our friends and colleagues from the Kubulau, Nakorotubu, and Wainikeli districts within this 20 village network. Emergency aid is doing amazing work meeting the most urgent needs of the Fijian people (food, water, shelter). However, when this aid leaves, additional support will be needed to to help them rebuild critical community centers and gathering spaces that were destroyed in the cyclone. These meeting spaces are critically important to help rebuild and regain stability, especially for the young children.
The Solution
What this campaign will do is ensure aid continues in the months ahead. As these communities rebuild their lives, through this campaign we will help support their long-term effort of rebuilding their community centers. We cannot help all of Fiji, but we would like to focus our efforts in a few of these communities, that have become a part of our University of Hawai'i at Mānoa community, to make the largest impact we can and show our love and support for the people who have been so kind to us.
How you can Help
I would like to ask for your support in this initiative by donating to this campaign and helping these people overcome this terrible disaster. 100% of your donation will go directly to communities in the Kubulau, Nakorotubu, and Wainikeli districts. Our research team was actually scheduled to return to Fiji the same day Cyclone Winston hit. However, we have now postponed our trip until after May 2016 to allow communities to assess their needs and communicate this with to our in-country collaborators who we will be working with to collect and deliver the necessary materials when we return.
Please read more about us, the people we work with, our project and goals, and how we will carry out these initiatives at the funding raising site below. Feel free to share this via email, Facebook, Twitter, and other social media. Together we can make a real difference in the lives of these people. You can also contact me if you would like more information.

U.S. Fund for UNICEF issues urgent appeal for Syrian children affected by armed conflict and severe weather
Jan 23, 2013, 03:29 EST
With only $32.10, UNICEF can provide warm clothing for a child
NEW YORK, Jan. 23, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The U.S. Fund for UNICEF released a PSA yesterday appealing for immediate assistance for children fleeing Syria, following a series of recent reports from the country describing the terrible price children are paying due to the civil war. Of the estimated two million Syrians displaced inside the country, and the 620,000 people who have fled to neighboring countries, roughly half are children.
The PSA implores people to help UNICEF keep children safe and warm. The 70 second spot combines stirring music, emotionally powerful still photos from the affected region, and messages conveyed through typed graphics to illustrate the urgency and direness of the situation for children.
Having fled shelling and bombs, more than 2.6 million displaced Syrians now face a new fight for survival as temperatures drop. Without shelter, winter can be lethal, especially for young children. In a region where temperatures can plummet to freezing, children are still wearing the light clothing in which they were dressed when they fled their homes last summer. Shelter, too, is an issue as many of them are living in makeshift tents. Warmer clothes, shoes, and blankets are needed to protect them from rain, strong winds and the cold.
UNICEF is appealing for $68.5 million during the first six months of 2013 to address the immediate, life-saving needs of children in Syria. A donation of $32.10 can provide one child with warm clothing, including a thermal bodysuit, gloves and a hat.
UNICEF, alongside a network of more than 40 NGO partners, has been on the ground since the onset of the crisis, reaching hundreds of thousands of Syrians. Even in areas of conflict, children are being vaccinated, temporary schools are being set up, and families are being fed and sheltered. UNICEF has provided more than 260,000 people with winter supplies including warm children's clothes, blankets, mattresses, bed sheets, and cooking stoves.
Since last year, UNICEF has called on all parties to ensure civilians–and children especially–are spared the effects of the conflict. Still, media reports from last week tell of mass killings in the village of Hasawiya outside Homs. Whole families were among the dead. Additionally, two explosions targeting Aleppo University last week were reported to have killed more than 80 people, including many students.
For more information on the situation of Syrian children, follow the U.S. Fund for UNICEF on Twitter at: @unicefusa or #childrenofsyria, and on Facebook at: UNICEF USA. To view the PSA, visit http://youtu.be/vCGoogtz4oU.

Toll free: 1-800-FOR-KIDS
Mail: 125 Maiden Lane, 10th Floor, New York, NY 10038
As with any emergency, in the event that donations exceed anticipated needs, the U.S. Fund will redirect any excess funds to children in greatest need.
About UNICEF
The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) works in 190 countries and territories to save and improve children's lives, providing health care and immunizations, clean water and sanitation, nutrition, education, emergency relief and more. The U.S. Fund for UNICEF supports UNICEF's work through fundraising, advocacy, and education in the United States. Together, we are working toward the day when zero children die from preventable causes and every child has a safe and healthy childhood.

All the housemates were sitting together and they planned to talk about each other. They were just about to start, when Sonali interrupted saying that she has to touch up her lipstick. Even when the guys told her that she is looking fine, she ignored and went away to apply her lipstick! Following her move, even Minissha went to do the same! Girls will be girls!

We've said it before and we'll say it again: Santi Cazorla might well be the nicest, happiest man in football .
In fact, Arsenal's Spanish midfield maestro is SO happy, any attempt he makes to be critical of anything doesn't really work.
As you can see in the clip above, Cazorla used a recent interview on Arsenal's official YouTube channel to wind up his good pal Nacho Monreal. Asked about the player with the worst car, the worst dancing and the worst fashion, guess who he nominates every time?
Yep, his keepy-uppy co-star, Monreal .
The thing is, as much as it's all a bit of a laugh and a giggle, it still doesn't quite sit right.
And we've figured out why. Even when he's joking, a man as relentlessly positive as Cazorla trying to say something negative simply doesn't make sense.
Just look at that little face…

Chapters 19 and 20 Summary
Julia and Richard plan to go riding on a Sunday afternoon. Celia and John are struck by her resemblance to Beatrice, though Celia puts it down to the fact that Beatrice had a riding habit of the exact same color. John teases Julia to smooth over the moment, and she leaves the house bound for the village. Richard says that he loves Julia and asks if she loves him. She says that she loves him only as a cousin. Richard plays the part of the jilted lover, saying that Julia has broken his heart. Julia is sad that she hurt him but stands her ground on her betrothal. Richard then pretends to accept her decision once again, saying that he's jealous but is willing to have her be happy.
The two happen upon Ralph with his goshawk. Ralph allows Richard to...

One winter's night in Jerusalem, some thirty-odd years ago, I was waiting in Zion Square for the jitney that would drive me and several other passengers back to Tel Aviv. The way the system worked then, the first six people in line piled into the first jitney to arrive, the next six into the next one, and so on. That night I was the twelfth in line; I'd be the last one in the second jitney. Tired and cold, I had wrapped my arms around my chest and was turning in place to keep my circulation going when I happened to spot a woman with a head full of Farrah Fawcett hair, standing seven or eight people in back of me. The next time I turned, she seemed closer to me, and after the third turn closer still. Then suddenly she was behind me, and in another moment in front of me! As I had, at that point, been in Israel some three months, and this sort of line-cutting had happened many times before, I lost it. Tapping the woman on the shoulder, I said to her, "What you are doing is illegal, immoral, unethical and…" Without missing a beat, Farrah Fawcett turned to me and, both hands raised palms up, said, "Oll-right, oll-right, it means dot much to you, take it"—whereupon my jaw, always threatening to drop in Israel, did drop. The woman had been rude to me, but the tone of her voice, and the words that she spoke, implied that I was being rude to her. This country, I remember thinking, is a game I will never be equipped to play.
I had gone to Israel charged with the task of writing a book-length piece of personal journalism about the country as I found it, on the ground, in the ordinariness of its daily life. I never wrote that book. The country had not aroused my affection, and by then I had learned that to write critically, without sympathy, for the subject at hand was to commit literary suicide. I had met some of the most marvelous people I would ever know, looked at some of the most striking landscapes on the face of the planet, felt living history in the faces all about me. Yet however much I tried during the six months that I lived in Israel, through whichever of the various elements of identity at my disposal (Jewish, female, American), I was unable to connect. I returned to New York with a hundred pages of notes on people, places, events—all in the negative. Everything I had written said, "Yes, but…" As the child of Yiddish-speaking secular Jews, the Hebrew language meant no more to me than any other foreign tongue; as a woman, I balked at finding myself in a country more sexist than my own; as a product of individuating America, I found the tribalism of the culture dismaying.
I never knew anyone in Israel who was not an active member of a tight-knit family, and for whom consideration of the family was not permanently compelling. It was as though all Israelis had been raised to be husbands and wives, mothers and fathers, not simply women or men. The idea of living as a person who began and ended with oneself would, if proposed, invariably be met with a blank gaze, followed by: "But that is unnatural! What is natural is to be in a family." A good many Israelis had married young and seemed to be going through life joined at the hip—a convention that I came to think at least partially responsible for the overwhelming impression I had of the Israelis I knew as men and women with a distinctly limited knowledge of themselves as sensual beings.
By the same token, most Israelis seemed to have as their closest intimates people they had met in high school or during the army stint that all Israelis (except for the ultra-Orthodox) put in at the age of 18. European or American immigrants often complained of not being able to penetrate the sealed circle of Israeli friendships formed in early adulthood. It was as though to individuate was to threaten the preoccupation with Jewish identity that permeated the shared sensibility. The public culture, of course, reflected these striking fundamentals. In the bank, at the post office, in line for a bus, perfect strangers behaved with one another like impassioned, unruly family members who felt free to take the coarse liberties one usually allows oneself only in family life.

Major improvements to legislative website
State officials have taken a well-deserved shellacking for over-reaching with the Cover Oregon health care website. Too often, it seems, public sector computer and communications projects involve disastrous blind spots leading to system failures and huge financial losses.
On another front, however, public policy wonks are back in business with access to the latest information on Oregon laws.
In January, the Oregon Department of Justice quietly completed its long-awaited update of Oregon Revised Statutes for new print and online publications. And building on 2013 work, the Oregon Legislative Information System has a content- and feature-rich website providing quick access to every aspect of state lawmaking.
Oregonians seemingly paid scant attention to the long delay between updates of the ORS, which spanned multiple regular and special sessions of the Legislature. There was frustration in the media, since we've become dependent on instant access to accurate information on the laws wending through so many of our stories and commentaries.
You can buy the 21-book set of Oregon statutes for $615, a bargain considering that individual volumes cost $85. However, print sales have dropped ever since the statutes became available online, searchable and easy to reproduce.
Playing catch-up continues at the Department of Justice, as normal deadlines passed long ago for updating the department's valuable Public Records and Meetings Manual. Now, at least, government officials and the media can obtain updated versions of state laws affecting records and meetings.
Back to the Legislature's new website, — www.oregonlegislature.gov. It's worth a look even if you have only limited interest in Oregon's lawmaking system.
The website has a clean, alluring design that draws eyes quickly to its primary resources. Anyone who has ever followed the progress of a bill before the Legislature will instantly appreciate the compilation of all information related to each bill on compact search pages. Quick links to key information replace what formerly required frustrating, time-consuming research.
For some reason, the state of Oregon's primary website has taken on a pedestrian, text-dominant look these days. Not so the new legislative site, which features simple yet bold graphics contributing to rather than detracting from the mission of providing user-friendly access.
There's a prominent link for suggestions to improve the site. I may have something to offer over time, but for now, there's only praise and gratitude for efforts that created this new state information resource.

Violence is spreading from the Gaza Strip to Judea and Samaria, also known as the West Bank, in the aftermath of a Fatah-Hamas deal that brings all Palestinians around desire for the destruction of the State of Israel. Today, Arabs in the West Bank are reportedly "rioting and throwing stones and other objects at Israeli cars driving on the roads.
No injuries have yet been reported; if Israel is forced to suppress such violence in order to protect its civilians, however, look for violence to escalate in the West Bank as well as the Gaza Strip.

Gatorade Targets Younger Fans In Bid to Best Sports-Drink Rivals
The Denver Broncos football team isn't the only unexpected winner celebrating of late. Sports-drink pioneer Gatorade is doing an end run around two deep-pocketed rivals, thanks to an advertising blitz and a strategy of turning ever-younger sports fans into loyal guzzlers.
Quaker Oats ' Gatorade accounted for about 79% of sports-drink volume in the third quarter, up from 77% a year earlier. By contrast, two rivals launched in the early 1990s lagged far behind: PepsiCo 's All Sport slipped to 9% from 10%; Coca-Cola 's PowerAde...

Well it looks like for the first time in UK Chart history the same song is going to be number one and the number two . And it will be a christmas number one and two at that! The song in question was a work of art and a labour of love from Leonard Cohen who apparently made dozens of attempts over the course of a year to write this song. Whether you love the Alexandra version straight from her X factor winning performance or if it's the connoiseur's choice Jeff Buckley version that you tip for the top spot – the song's lyrics are worth a second look.
I thought I'd do a bit of commentary on the song and would love your comments too… there are a number of Old Testament links that are worth picking up…
Well I heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do ya?
Well it goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
As you may well know the first King of Israel was called Saul, he was disobedient to God and so the Bible records that the Spirit of God left him. So Samuel God's prophet secretly crowned as the rightful King over Israel the shepherd boy son of a farmer. The boy was called David and before he had his famous victory over Golliath he was called into King Saul's service as he was a gifted musician. Saul did not know that the boy he was employing was his successor. Saul was being tormented by evil spirits and to help him through these times David was called upon to help the King. The Bible records the story in the book of Samuel:
Whenever the spirit from God came upon Saul, David would take his harp and play. Then relief would come to Saul; he would feel better, and the evil spirit would leave him.
So hence the lyric: I heard there was a secret chord that david played before the lord.
David is the author of many of the Bible's worship songs – Psalms. They often include the word "Hallelujah" which literally means Praise the Lord.
Many have remarked about Cohen's song's incredibly melancholic tune and the secret is explained in the words of the first verse where the actual chord progression used in the song is described. Some music commentators have explained that it is the deliberate alternating of major and minor chords which give the song its haunting nature.
Well Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
she tied you to her kitchen chair
And she broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
Now the song merges two other Old Testament stories. The woman bathing on the roof is ofcourse Bathsheba with whom King David committed adultery and then had her husband Uriah murdered. So King David betrays one of his citizens and his God. But then the song seems to switch to a reference to Samson who was God's chosen rescuer of his people (hundreds of years before King David). Samson had super human strength but the secret to his strength was a vow to keep his Nazarite promises – not to drink alcohol and not to have his hair cut. Samson uses his immense strength for his own ends and disobeys God on many an occassion. Meanwhile Samson's girlfriend is approached by her compatriots who were tired of being defeated by Samson to find out his secret so that they can disempower him. She does discover Samson's secret and betrays him to her people and they tie him up, cut his hair, gouge out his eyes and take him into custody. But in his weakness, Samson does cry out a prayer to God and asks for one last chance to be God's rescuer and he is given one last victory over his enemies which results in his own death.
I guess these stories teach something of God's generousity to broken people. Both David and Samson find forgiveness from God despite turning their backs on him.
Well baby I've been here before
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew ya
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Well there was a time when you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show that to me do you?
And remember when I moved in you?
And the holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah
I had a really helpful post challenging me on the sexual language in this song, so here are my initial thoughts.
It seems Cohen is talking about human sexuality in this verse. "remember how I moved in you…"
In one sense Cohen is right to link sex and hallelujah – making love and the priase of God. Sex is a spiritual act – not just a physical one and the God that invented sex is no prude – see the biblical book the Song of Songs and its very explicit and very positive language about human sexuality.
On the other hand there is more to worship than sex. Not all sex is worship, for that would mean rape and abuse. Good sex according to the Bible is more than just consensual sex, it is committed sex where both recreation and procreation can potentially take place. So the Bible is strongly for sex within the context of marriage and strongly against sex outside of marriage. Even within marriage there can be bad sex, where one person seeks to use or abuse the other, so the Bible talks about the need for mutual submission, where each partner seeks the best for the other.
Well maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who'd OUT DREW YA
And it's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah <<(held for a long time)
Leonard Cohen the composer reflects on the fact that love and life most often does not have the fairy tale ending we'd all hope for. (which is ironic as Rufus Wainwright's version of this song was one of the highlight's of the Shrek soundtrack). I wonder if the song's finale hints at the fact that despite the cold reality of life – there is still something transcendent that we seek to reach out to, that we still seek to worship and offer hallelujah – Praise to the Lord?

Only 3 days until Halloween! How fun! I can hear the buzz around the school yard, everyone is getting so excited! I had planned on making a few more cocktails before Halloween this year, but to no surprise, I got sick a week ago and an still not feeling 100%. Blah! I have too many things going on this weekend to be sick, so it's time to have a shot of this here Poisoned Apple and get on with my weekend!
'Tis the season of black vodka! I love this stuff. I love that it's black, I think that's so cool. I decided to go with a layered shot today and since green is one of the colors of Halloween, what better liqueur to use but sour apple pucker!
This time when I rimmed my shot glass I used simple syrup.
Although I have a huge "dislike" for sprinkles or anything like them......I DO think they look really cool rimmed on a cocktail glass or shot glass (don' tell my friends or family I said this...I'll never hear the end of it............ever). I saw these black and an orange shiny sprinkle jars at Target not too long ago and decided to get them for upcoming drinks.
Layering a cocktail can be tricky at times for sure......but sometimes it's REALLY easy. Some alcohol (such as the sour apple pucker) has enough sugar in it to make it more dense. This is allow lighter alcohols to more or less float on top. With something like this shot you can just pour in the sour apple pucker and then slowly towards the side of the glass pour in the black vodka. Sure some might go below the pucker for a moment, but it will rise up and create that layer right after that.
This combo of sour apple pucker and vodka is pretty darn good. Layered shots sometimes scare me, especially when the hard alcohol is on the top of the shot. As long as you take it in one big sip (as you're supposed to take shots), you'll be fine!
If you notice the black sprinkles started to slide down the shot glass inside and created a brownish streak inside the shot. I think that's kind of cool! It reminds me of my Happy Birthday Tini I made a while back. I loved the effect the all of the different colored sprinkles made on the inside of that glass.
Here is my recipe for a Poisoned Apple:
Poisoned Apple
- 1 ounce black vodka
- 1 ounce sour apple pucker
Rim the top of a shot glass with simple syrup and then black sprinkles. Pour in the apple pucker first. Next on the back of a spoon, slowly pour the black vodka on top.
Here are the ingredients I used to create this cocktail:
Here's to one of my kids most favorite holidays being only 4 days away!!

Iraqi Rebuilding Contracts Proceeding Well, Nash Reports
|Wednesday March
10, 2004
By Donna Miles
WASHINGTON, March 10, 2004 — Iraq's reconstruction is proceeding smoothly and on schedule, the U.S. head of reconstruction in Iraq told Pentagon reporters today.
Retired Navy Rear Adm. David J. Nash said the $18.4 billion aid package approved by Congress last fall rapidly is translating into tangible, on-the- ground improvements in Iraq's infrastructure, internal security and services.
"Work is moving along very nicely. We … have construction under way, although we are just beginning. There is more to follow," he said. "I'm very pleased at our progress, and am looking forward to delivering on a promise."
Seven project management support contracts are expected to be awarded later today. Another 10 construction contracts for services including electricity, water, transportation and communications are expected to be awarded within the next couple of weeks. Collectively, these contracts will represent an estimated $5 billion in funding.
Nash told the American Forces Press Service March 9 that those involved in the rebuilding process — from the contract awarding and oversight to the work itself — recognize that "time is of the essence" in carrying out the mandate behind the U.S. aid package.
"The people of Iraq need their infrastructure reconstructed so they can get their lives to some sort of normal level," Nash said.
But despite the desire for speed, Nash stressed that no shortcuts are being taken to sidestep Congress's requirements for spending the Iraqi aid package.
Nash said the reconstruction team's approach for awarding and overseeing the contracts "is sound and complies with the legislation -- legislation he said "is very specific about the need for full and open competition and transparency in the process."
An improved Army Corps of Engineers accounting system helps track the money, and input from federal acquisition professionals throughout the country ensures the proper selection of contractors, he said.
Also, Nash said, the staff is using proven commercial, off-the-shelf software to manage and track 2,300 construction projects and several hundred line items of goods and services being purchased.
Oversight is a critical part of the contract process, Nash said, with staff from the Defense Contract Audit Agency on the ground in Iraq and a new inspector general for the Coalition Provisional Authority and his staff "mobilizing as we speak." Nash said he expects auditors from the General Accounting Office and other offices to participate as well.
"So there will be no shortage of adequate oversight," he said. "We ought to have whatever oversight is required to make people feel comfortable that the right things are being done. … In fact, I welcome it, because it is only going to improve the quality of what we do."
Nash said intensive oversight will help ensure the contracting process remains open to full and open competition.
"In the process that we have put together, there is no favoritism," he said. "What we will rely on are the ethics of the people who are running this and the tremendous amount of oversight we have. Everything is (subject to) full and open competition, and everything is transparent."
He called the Army's termination of a contract to equip the new Iraqi Army based on protests from other contractors and the Army's own internal review proof that "the system is working as it should." Army Materiel Command is expected to re-bid the contract soon.
Nash said he is confident the contracting process will continue to proceed on track and that Iraq soon will begin enjoying the new infrastructure, security and other services being funded through U.S. reconstruction funds.
"I think it won't be long until you find a lot of satisfied customers in Iraq," he said. "And that is what we set out to do."

The word banana comes from the Arabic "banan," meaning finger. A fitting moniker given that these long, curved tropical fruits may well be the greatest finger food of all time. They port easily, need no refrigeration, and their thick skin serves as the perfect wrapper. Simply snap the stem, peel, and you have a delicious, nutritious treat. Each year the world consumes more than 100 billion bananas, making them the most popular of all fruits.
Like money, bananas don't grow on trees. They are actually the botanical berries of the largest known herb, musa sapientum. Believed to have originated in Southeast Asia, it is a perennial and knows no season. If given plenty of sun and frost-free conditions, fruit can be harvested year round. India is the world's largest producer, with about 25 metric tons grown annually, but Latin America accounts for 80% of the export market.
One of the few fruits that develop better flavor after being picked, bananas are harvested while firm and green and are transported over great distances, during which time refrigeration slows ripening. Just before going to market, a short stint in an ethylene gas chamber brings out their brilliant yellow coloring, but most of their sweetness develops afterwards as their starches break down into sugars.
Over a thousand varieties of bananas are grown today. The vast majority of these are sweet or "dessert" bananas, which have a creamy flesh and are commonly eaten out of hand or used in muffins, puddings and pies. Starchier, drier varieties, called plantains, are treated as vegetables and used in cooking.
A supermarket favorite, the Cavendish is the most common banana sold throughout Europe and North American. Approximately 6-10 inches in length (15-25 cm), it has a thick skin and a smooth, consistently sweet flesh. It reaches peak flavor when the skin is yellow with small brown flecks. Some consider it to be bland in comparison to other varieties. It's existence has been threatened in recent years by a fungus called Fusarium wilt. Evidence suggests it's just a matter of time before the Cavendish is extinct. In the 1950's, it replaced the Gros Michel, the market leader of its time, which suffered the same fate.
Smaller and chunkier than a Cavendish, the Marzano banana is slightly sweeter with hints of strawberry and apple. The skin turns completely black when ripe.
Also called "baby bananas", the Niños are finger size—about 3 inches in length (7.6 cm)—and a delight for children. Delicious out of hand, they are slightly sweeter than the Cavendish and can be used in all the same preparations.
The plantain has a starchy dry flesh that is sometimes pink in color. The taste is mild and less sweet, but when fully ripened, they be used for desserts. The skin is thick and ranges in color from green to yellow to black. Perfect for more savory uses, they are often sliced and fried in oil.
Red bananas have a reddish purple skin and a light orange flesh that is sweeter than the Cavendish but firmer in texture. Like the Manzanos, they are short and plump, about 4-6 inches long (10-15 cm). When fully ripened, the flesh becomes quite soft making it good choice for baking.
Buying & Storing Bananas
Selecting a ripe bananas is a tricky proposition. What constitutes "ripe" is a matter of taste—especially when eaten out of hand. Some people prefer a firmer, less sweet bananas with a hint of green throughout, while others like the sweet softened flesh that only comes once the peel browns significantly.
Ripening occurs exponentially. The shelf life shortens as soon as flecking begins. For this reason, most supermarkets stock bananas that are too green and must ripen at home for a period of time. When purchasing, first determine how quickly they will be consumed. If they are to be eaten right away, look for bananas that are plump and yellow with little to no green at the ends and consume them within a day or two. Otherwise, select several bananas at various stages of ripening. This may mean splitting up bunches (aka "hands"), but it will prevent them from peaking all at once.
Plantains, on the other hand, are far less fussy. They are slower to ripen and will remain firm even when the peel is black. So select plump plantains at any stage of ripening based on how soon they will be prepared.
Avoid bananas and plantains that are mushy or have damaged or moldy peels. Don't purchase bananas that are too a deep green, as they will not fully ripen.
Store bananas and plantains at a cool room temperature for 2-5 days. To speed up ripening, place them in a paper bag poked with a few holes. The ethylene gas they naturally produce will hasten the process. Conversely, ripening can be slowed a bit by storing them in the refrigerator. The peels will darken rapidly, but the flesh will be slower to soften.
Bananas can also be frozen and used later in smoothies or for baking. Peel and cut them into 2-3 inch (5-8 cm) pieces. Spread the pieces onto a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Fill a small food-safe spray bottle with ½ cup of water and a tablespoon of lemon juice. Lightly spray the bananas with the juice mixture to prevent browning. Place the sheet pan in the freezer for 2-3 hours. Transfer the frozen banana pieces into a freezer bag marked with the date, seal and freeze for up to 3 months.
Preparing & Cooking Bananas
Nothing beats a fresh banana eaten out of hand, but there are a myriad of ways to enjoy them that required little or no preparation. Sliced on top of cereal is a breakfast mainstay, but they're just as delicious with yogurt, honey and almonds. They add sweetness and substance to a fruit smoothie. You can add mashed bananas to pancake batter, or make banana fritters. There is no easier dessert than bananas dipped in melted chocolate, but for something a little fancier, cook sliced bananas in butter with some brown sugar and cinnamon. Add a little rum, and you have bananas foster, a New Orleans original.
For best presentation, peel and cut just before using to avoid discoloring. Be sure to remove the nub end and any mushy areas. And what of those stringy remnants knowns as phloem (pronounce flom)? They're completely edible but a little unsightly and tedious to remove. Peel bananas from the bottom up to eliminate them completely.
For the best tasting banana muffins or quick bread only use overly ripe, brown bananas. They are sweeter and greater depth of flavor.
Flavor Affinities
Among the banana's strongest affinities are chocolate, caramel (butter and sugar), ice cream, and rum. Many tropical fruits also pair nicely, including mangoes, papaya, pineapple, and, in particular, coconut. Walnuts are commonly paired with them, but almonds and macadamia nuts work well too. Warming spices like cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, and even black pepper are all tempered by the banana's cooling sweetness.

Core values
The core values of an organization are those values we hold which form the foundation on which we perform work and conduct ourselves. We have an entire universe of values, but some of them are so primary, so important to us that through out the changes in society, government, politics, and technology they are STILL the core values we will abide by. In an ever-changing world, core values are constant. Core values are not descriptions of the work we do or the strategies we employ to accomplish our mission. The values underlie our work, how interact with each other, and which strategies we employ to fulfill our mission. The core values are the basic elements of how we go about our service. They are the practices we use every day in everything we do.

June 28, 2012 – Service from SaaS CRM provider Salesforce.com was disrupted up to six hours Thursday from a storage hardware issue isolated to one of its North American hubs.
A "fault in [the] storage tier" first reported at approximately 6:35 a.m. ET led to service outages for an untold number of customers until a hardware replacement at one of Salesforce.com's data centers resolved the problem at 12:34 p.m. ET, according to official vendor tweets and its system status site.
"Performance degredation issues" were also reported and resolved within 90 minutes Thursday morning during this same time period at other service centers in North American and European. The system status site attributed those issues to unexpected faults to its storage tier, and the vendor wrote it would investigate "more effective methods to manage database resource contention." All 37 of Salesforce.com's services sources, or instances, reported as functioning normally Friday morning.
The first Twitter messages acknowledging an outage from the official Salesforce.com account went out at approximately 8 a.m. ET. There, the SaaS provider stated its tech team was working on the issue and urged patience with its customers. At 11:50 a.m. ET, the Salesforce Twitter feed reported to customers that it was engaged in a hardware replacement at the primarily impacted service center, named NA2, "to see if that fixes the issue."
"We thank you for your continued business and patience during this situation," read a message on the Salesforce.com system status site.
The system status site link provided to customers via Twitter by Salesforce.com was also down for the first few hours of the outage.
(Editor's note: This story has been edited throughout Thursday to reflect changes in the service distruption. Information-Management.com will continue to follow this story as it develops.)

That is exactly what we see; therefore, until this changes, materialism has been vindicated thus far as the ontology which most accurately describes our universe.
As long as you are willing to stipulate that materialism does very poorly in describing a probably insignificant blip in the universe called human cognition. At this point all materialism can say about cognition is that somehow neurochemicals and electrical impulses in neurons create or possibly detect cognition. I readily admit my cognitive bias that cognition is created in the mind/brain, but materialism must by definition be agnostic.
In particular I would like the materialists to explain how a top level string quartet manages the rubato, retards, fermatas, and other musical effects to produce a performance that can make a listener cry, or in one case of a quatuor pour le fin du temps sob uncontrollably. Or how a listener can control the attacks of a professional Rock band. All of which I have personally observed.
Or explain
With a dramatic bow of pianist Nobuyuki Tsujii's head, rich sounds of the piano, violins, cello and viola broke the concert hall silence as he and a string quartet played Schumann's Piano Quintet in E-flat major, Op. 44.
The standing ovation lasted nearly five minutes, so long that the 20-year-old from Japan returned to the stage twice to bow, grinning from ear to ear.
The audience may have loved Friday's performance, but not everyone may have known its significance. Tsujii—who was born blind—had to figure out how to cue the other musicians. That was especially important with the Schumann piece, because all instruments must start playing simultaneously in the first movement.
Yeah, sure. The quartet all mentally counted the 3472 microseconds from when his blind eyes crossed the horizontal and they all came in on the 3473rd. There was something else going on here. The leader, in this case Tsujii caused the syncing of the brain waves of the quintet so they could all attack at the same instant. A trained human ear can hear at least millisecond differences in the attack of stringed instruments. With a good ensemble it never does.
So, materialists how did Tsujii sync the brain waves of 4 other people?
I don't know what constitutes psychic by your definition, but the SciAm report states that syncing with the metronome, at the initial attack, and in difficult rhythmic passages the measured brain waves of two unacquainted guitarists in 8 trials were synced.
As noted in my previous post this phenomenon of "knowing when to attack" and following unpredictable tempo modifications is second nature to ensemble musicians. It is not unusual for ensemble musicians especially in rehearsal to be concentrating on the score, and yet still follow the subtle tempo changes that constitute the music. I don't know whether it would be called psychic by your definition or not, but I have experienced and seen the synchronization and its failures.
As another example I have seen a pairs figure skater "stumble" in a blind maneuver but be perfectly in sync with herm partner at the rejoin move which was also blind. I would submit that the skeptics have the burden of proof that the rejoin was based on anything but brain wave sync of unexplained communication channel. Not incidentally, they were out of sync with the music which was one of the reasons I noticed it.
I personally have "researched" the reaction time bill drop bar bet. That is if you catch the bill when I drop it it is yours. Catcher's thumb and finger over the portrait. A false grab means the catcher owes the dropper the bill. Reaction time says the money is in the bank. I was demonstrating this bet with a "fresh squeeze" who eventually became my wife. She caught the bill every time. Fingers right on the portrait usually. We tried this with a wall between us bill in a doorway and the only way I could beat her was randomizing my drop. If I so much as thought about dropping it I lost. This was witnessed by a fairly large group of peers, who were able to observe a randomized trial by a finger signal out of sight of all but the control observer. OT have you ever tried to randomize a physical action?
It would appear that the scientists who did the study you cited see nothing in their results that requires an explanation which goes beyond normal brain events understood in biochemical or information processing terms--business as usual.
"Stipulated. It would be quite beyond the experimental design to explain the mechanism of the synchrony. The synchrony was of course biochemical and information processing functions of the brains of the musicians. That is what they could measure. Like the drunk under the street light looking for lost car keys, science can only look where they have light to see. All the scientists could do was note that the synchrony existed. They could not publish the mechanism of the synchrony even if they speculated on it. At this point it is not science. That does not mean that the mechanism for the synchrony does not exist, it is just in the class of things beyond the measurable world of science."
What's to explain about mirror neurons, religious perceptions God or mental influence on others? At least in the sense that you have a better explanation for us?
How they work. I don't have any explanation of how they work. Just the observation that they do work. I have a speculation that the spinal chord is a brain wave detector, and particularly with respect to motor nerve stimulus can provide the observed synchrony, as in the movement of a school of fish in response to a predator. Whether it can provide higher function synchrony is much more speculative, but it explains some unexplainable observations, including mirror neuron response, and group perceptions of God.
I am always amused by the way scientists conveniently ignore things like reaction time and speed of pressure wave transmission in water in trying to explain the unexplainable synchrony. But currently ESP is a grant killer on par with Creation Science, so it will take a lot of "it just works" scientific evidence to force investigation of the mechanisms.
I have no dog in the fight. I don't believe in skepticism. Science always catches up and disproves belief systems contrary to fact. It will probably take a remote fMRI to catch a group of musicians, or a group of believers syncing up brain waves to do what is necessary. I wish you could have been at the Faure Requiem performance I mentioned earlier. (You don't.) The stick was right on the money. The chorus was all over the bar line.
I have personally experienced, or perhaps imagined, all of the synchronies mentioned in my previous post including the presence of God in a Catholic service. I can only speculate on the mechanism(s). Perhaps in the Catholic service I had a temporal lobe brain fart. Everything is on the table. But it was a physical action, genuflection, that triggered the connection with the congregation or whatever it was.
I'm trying to work out whether I think really good sync is more common amongst instrument players than amongst singers of the same professional status or not. I suspect it might be, but I can also think of extrinsic reasons why that might be so - especially amongst larger choirs. Amongst my CDs, the Robert Shaw chorale and some of the madrigal groups eg Les Arts Florissants doing Gesualdo make a positive case for the singers.
I think the secret is unconducted chamber work either choral or instrumental. And since instrumental chamber music is required of all pro level instrumentalists but not choral singers I suspect you are right.
But having sung for Robert Shaw, there is no way to be out of sync. Somehow, one always knows exactly when to come in. The concentration he puts into a rehearsal and a performance suggests an athlete. A face towel is standard equipment and is changed at every opportunity. He is not an active conductor, so the effort is all mental. I performed the Missa Solemnis under his baton, and there is no way to do the Et Vitam fugue at the tempo he takes it by watching the stick. There is just too much going on. I will admit to the possibility of learning to count microseconds in the rehearsal, but I wouldn't bet on it.
J'C But it was a physical action, genuflection, that triggered the connection with the congregation or whatever it was.I have no reason to doubt your word. The only question between us is whether a word like 'psychic' comes into the explanation.
I wouldn't take it off the table. It would have to be right up there with the brain fart. I don't have a clue as to how it worked. And as I had no previous experience of God, the feeling was of a presence like another person as described by unbelievers in the God Helmet experiment. But it definitely was not a person in the church, not even the priest. The closest analogy I can muster is the feeling I had in the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC.
I think the analogy is apt. I have seen many a noisy group of school children fall dead silent as they cross the threshold of the memorial. I don't think it is anything supernatural, just a feeling of awe and reverence generated by those in the memorial. Is it phychic? A brain fart? Mirror neurons compelling awe and reverence? I don't think science dares to have a clue as to the mechanism. At this point it can just add a data point to the unexplained barrel.

HOYLAKE, England – Much was made of the bet Gerry McIlroy, the father of 2014 Open champion Rory, made 10 years ago that his son would win the claret jug by the time he was 25.
Gerry McIlroy pooled 400 pounds (about $680) with three friends for the bet that offered 500-to-1 odds. On Sunday following his two-stroke victory Rory McIlroy was asked about the wager.
"Honestly, that 50 grand that he's going to win is way . . . I mean, the other three friends that he did that with, they're going to be very happy," said McIlroy, who collected 975,000 pounds for the victory. "He's never reminded me. I knew that he'd done it. I'm not sure if it will pay out. If it does, it's a nice little bonus."
McIlroy was also asked if his father had any other bets on his future performances?
"Not that I know of. You'll have to ask him," he smiled.

Chicken Tacos Made Easy, Yes Please.
When I started this blog I didn't want to just do crafts and projects, I wanted to really take what Pinterest had to offer and try new things. That being said I made my first recipe from Pinterest and found that I could make chicken tacos (my favorite) with next to no prep and a crock pot. Saving me time and effort, I could come home from work, warm up the tortillas, and pig out. Hallelujah.
Here is the original Pin (clicking the picture will take you to the recipe).
My Version
The recipe says only three ingredients but it wouldn't my blog if I didn't do my own thing. I used an El Paso soft taco dinner kit, green peppers, and Pace salsa. I toss the chicken in the crock pot, add some salsa, the seasoning mix and taco sauce from the taco kit and set it to low. I usually set it up before work in the morning. When I get home its one quick stir with a fork and the chicken shreds itself. If you have the opportunity to make these while your home or make it back home halfway through the day, chop up those green peppers and add them in with the chicken (saves you from cooking them later and they add delicious flavor). It's that simple and the chicken is amazingly tender. If you like tacos and you are busy busy but you're not a beef person this is the ultimate recipe for you. Enjoy!

TAMPA — The fear came through in his voice. So did the confusion: Why was someone following his car? And why did the other driver have a gun?
The chaos played out on a 911 recording made last June that turned out to be the last phone call Fred Turner Jr. would ever make. He was shot to death while driving on Interstate 4 in Tampa.
Investigators said Turner, 47, of Orlando was the victim of mistaken identity. On Monday, they made public the evidence they have collected against Jerome Hayes, who is charged with murder.
The evidence includes the recording of the call Turner made to 911.
Turner, who was driving a green Ford Mustang, told the dispatch operator that the driver of a Ford Taurus was following him with its windows down and was getting closer as they headed east on Interstate 4 approaching Interstate 75.
Turner told the operator he didn't know who the man was or why he would follow him. He didn't recall upsetting anyone or cutting someone off in traffic.
"Now he's got both his windows down and he's going to drive up beside me," Turner said. "If he shoots his gun, I'm gone."
"Try to get away from him," said the dispatcher, who had already sent an officer.
"I'm doing about 80 now, but I'm going with the flow of traffic," Turner said. "He's going to pull up beside me on the right side now."
"Are you there?'' the dispatcher asked. "Sir? Are you there? Hello? Hello, are you there?....The phone line's open. I didn't hear a bullet or anything but I heard like an echo."
Investigators said Hayes mistook Turner for a man he and his friend, Ronnie Isgett, of Dover, had gotten into a fight with a short time earlier at the Tampa Gold Club, an adult-oriented club at 6222 Adamo Drive. Turner had been at Tres Equis adult video arcade, which is next door to Tampa Gold Club and shares the parking lot.
Isgett told investigators he and Hayes, 49, of St. Cloud, are old school buddies who were catching up after several years of being disconnected. They had planned a fishing trip, but it was a bad day for fishing. They returned from St. Petersburg to Tampa and went to the Deja Vu, where they had a few drinks next door.
According to court documents, they then went to the Tampa Gold Club, where Hayes and Isgett got into a fight with James Prather, a regular at the club. Hayes and Isgett were kicked out.
Concerned for Prather's safety, club manager Roy Sansbury kept Prather inside until Hayes and Isgett drove off.
But instead of heading home, Hayes drove after Turner's green Mustang, thinking it was Prather at the steering wheel, investigators said.
Isgett later told investigators he was in pain and dazed and had his seat back. As they were driving, Hayes put bullets and the gun's magazine on Isgett's chest and told him to load the gun, Isgett told investigators. Isgett said he was reluctant and couldn't use his left arm anyway because he had been hurt in the fight.
Hayes took the bullets from him and loaded the gun himself, Isgett told investigators.
"I saw him start shakin it out the window and he was yellin at somebody," Isgett told investigators.
Isgett said he never saw the car and thought Hayes might be trying to protect them.
"Then I heard a couple of shots," Isgett said to investigators.
According to Isgett, Hayes then told him: "I think I got him.... Man, you should see the look on your face."
