Theory and Modelling in Chemical Sciences (EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training)
About the course
The three primary activities in theoretical and computational chemistry are the development of new theory, implementation of methods as reliable software, and application of such methods to a host of challenges in chemical and related sciences. The aim of this programme is to train new research students to deliver all these outcomes.
The first year is a set of training modules leading to an MSc, followed by a transfer to the DPhil or PhD programme for successful students in one of the participating universities (Oxford, Bristol or Southampton) or the candidate's home university as appropriate.
In the first year you will study eight compulsory core courses:
- Quantum Mechanics
- Statistical Mechanics
- Mathematics 1
- Statistics
- Computer Programming and Numerical Methods
- Methods of Computer Simulation
- Electronic Structure Theory
- Software Development Training.
You will also select five optional courses from a choice of:
- Applied Computational Chemistry
- Biomolecular Simulation
- Mathematics 2
- Quantum Mechanics in Condensed Phases
- Intermolecular Potentials
- Chemical Informatics
- Chemical Reaction Dynamics
- Advanced Statistical Mechanics
- Advanced Quantum Mechanics.
In addition, you will be required to undertake two six-week projects with an allocated supervisor, one at Oxford and one at either Bristol or Southampton University, and each project will be assessed based on a report that you will submit thereafter.
You will also be required to attend two transferable skills courses in the year, organised by the CDT administrator.
The compulsory and optional courses are assessed in various ways detailed on the course website. If you are successful in the first-year assessments, you will be awarded an MSc in Theoretical and Computational Chemistry, and you may transition to the DPhil or PhD in one of the three participating institutions. A termly report is submitted by your supervisor throughout the course. After seven terms you must pass Transfer of Status, which is to ensure that you do have the potential to gain a doctorate.
Research proceeds with termly reporting throughout the next two years, and there is the opportunity to follow further courses during this period. By the end of the third year you must pass Confirmation of Status, which is to ensure that you are on track to complete the thesis within a reasonable time.
The MSc degree is examined by assessment of set work for each of the modules offered and of the two six-week projects. A board of examiners will be appointed by the University. The DPhil degree is examined by thesis and oral examination by two examiners, one of whom is normally from Oxford and one from elsewhere.

The budget is out and the wait is over. The much talked about suit case of the Finance Minister, Mr. Pranab Mukherjee, opened in the Parliament this morning and the budget was read out. The budget affirmed the Government's commitment to social welfare programmes with something for everyone in it. However, it lacked long term stimulus for infrastructure and growth. Markets reacted sharply to the Budget, which lacked major annnouncements and tanked over 750 points. Pranab had promised inclusive growth and taking proper care of the youth's needs and aspirations.
"The government recognises the challenges," he said, referring to the global slowdown and the decline in India's high growth rate in the past year to 6.7 per cent from over 9 per cent in the preceding three years.
"The first challenge is to bring back the GDP (gross domestic product) growth rate to over 9 per cent per annum," he said, setting the tone of what is his fourth career budget. "There are signs of an economic recovery."
He said the other challenges included better governance and to ensure that the fruits of development reached across regions to touch the lives of every citizen.
The government will work towards simplifying the tax structure in the next four years, Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee said.
The Income Tax Department has also been asked to introduce the simplified version of the tax filing form Saral, called Saral 2.
Bowing to the long standing demand of India Inc, Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee has abolished the Fringe Benefit Tax and Commodity Transaction Tax.
However, Minimum Allocation Tax (MAT) on book profits has been increased from 10 per cent to 15 per cent, but with a provision of carrying forward the tax credit on MAT to 10 years from the current seven years.
Budget proposed to increase the income tax exemption limit for senior citizens by Rs.15,000, for women and others by Rs.10,000 each, while keeping the corporate tax rate unchanged.
The exemption limit will now be Rs.240,000 for senior citizens, Rs.190,000 for women and Rs.160,000 for others.

Where is the middle class in it?
While some demands of the middle class have been met, some have not. But the budget is a rather commendable one. The tax slab has been increased which is a rather intelligent decision.
The Indian middle class faces problems from lack better and 'within the pocket' housing benefits, to lack of better basic facilities and judiciary. This budget has satisfied many and has worked the opposite for others.

I have an eclipse application from which i trigger an Swing widget.On click of a button on the SWT composite a window pops out which contains the Swing Table.
Now i want a button on this Swing page to show up an eclipse workbench window.
Any idea on how I could get across this problem?
PlatformUI.getWorkbench.showPerspective(perspectiveID, window)
It has been many months since I worked on Eclipse RCP .. but I think that is the correct way to do it. If you look at the methods available to you in the PlatformUI class you can trace those method calls yourself.
Edited by BestJewSinceJC: n/a
Adity, as I said before, it has been awhile for me. My understanding of a Perspective in Eclipse is that it is a collection of views, whereas a view is basically one window container. Given this information, the following might also be helpful to you:
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage().showView(String viewID)
Yes I can do this when I am calling it through an action button that SWT uses..but when i am using an AWT action button it gives an error.. SWTException error
lst = new ActionListener()
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
IWorkbench workbench = PlatformUI.getWorkbench();
IWorkbenchWindow window = workbench.getActiveWorkbenchWindow();
workbench.showPerspective("stab.diagram.perspectives.StabInputPerspective",window );
catch (WorkbenchException ex)
The above code throws an error :
Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" org.eclipse.swt.SWTException: Invalid thread access
PlatformUI.getWorkbench.showPerspective(perspectiveID, window)
It has been many months since I worked on Eclipse RCP .. but I think that is the correct way to do it. If you look at the methods available to you in the PlatformUI class you can trace those method calls yourself.
You get that error because you can't update SWT widgets from anywhere except the SWT Thread. In order to fix this, see these methods:
Go to this link, search for "The syncExec() or asyncExec() Methods Do Not Create Threads" and then read everything from there down. They have a code example as well.
Edited by BestJewSinceJC: n/a
Thanks!Let me look through it ..Try somethings they suggest and get back ..!
Thanks for the help.I didn't know these forums were this effective,.. :)
I just thought I would be a little more specific about the problem i am tackling here.
So I need to display a file stored(diagram file) in my local hard disk on the eclipse editor utility through a click of a JButton in JFrame.
So it does require some kind of triggering from an AWT widget to SWT.
ViewPart yourView = (ViewPart)PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage().findView("viewID");
You might have read through the API and gotten confused because the findView() method is defined as returning an IViewPart. IViewPart is an interface, not a class. ViewPart is a class that implements the IViewPart interface. ViewPart defines the view that you see on your screen, so casting to a ViewPart, like I did above, will be safe. Once you do what I did above to get a handle on your Eclipse RCP view, you can then modify the Composite (which is an SWT widget). I don't remember how to get the Composite with an "out of the box" method, but you can simply define your own getter method in the class. After you modify the Composite to put your diagram on the screen, you're going to want to do the following:
// .. add stuff to the Composite up here
Calling the layout() method causes the Composite to re-display all of its contents. So basically you're telling it you made changes. As for calling SWT from AWT, as far as I know it makes no difference where you call these methods from. As long as you are in an Eclipse RCP built application, you can call all the methods that I have shown you. And as long as you can call all of the methods that I have shown you, you are good to go. Do you get errors when you try to call PlatformUI.getWorkbench()?
Edited by BestJewSinceJC: n/a
PlatformUI.getWorkbench() works and i tried doing just the following to see if it works and it gives a null pointer exception.
What do I initialize it to ?
ViewPart yourView = (ViewPart)PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage().findView("viewID");
You have to give it the correct viewID where I put "viewID". It is the number associated with your view. If you give it an invalid ID (such as my example) it won't be able to find your view, and thus, will return null, ultimately leading to a NullPointerException. You already defined the View ID when you filled out the form in RCP for your view. But anyway, you can also list all of your view ID numbers like this:
IViewReference[] refs = PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage().getViewReferences();
for (IViewReference ref: refs) System.out.println(ref.getID());
As for not knowing your view ID, remember this screen from when you originally created your view? It contains your view ID field. (Note: this image is taken from Vogella's Eclipse RCP tutorials)
I am giving the viewId correctly as in its a string that I had defined while creating my view. Exactly taken from the place like its given in the image.
Hmm, that is interesting. I don't even have Eclipse RCP on my computer right now but I'll download it and make a project real quick and get back to you. Like I said, all of this has been from memory but it has been a while. So give me ten minutes and I'll reply back. .
Ok Wait.
I am not working with eclipse RCP.
I am using eclipse Galileo.I had developed the entire eclipse project in this and now am integrating a java application to this eclipse application.
That's fine. Eclipse RCP says Galileo on it when it runs anyway. It is just a question of having more functionality than "normal Eclipse". As long as you can call PlatformUI.getWorkbench() without problems, you should have the required libraries.
Another thing I just remembered: if you haven't properly set up the view (so that it actually shows up when your application launches) then calling findView() is not going to work and that might be why it is returning null. You should try running that other piece of code I gave you (the one that prints out all of the view IDs) and show me what it says. My bet is that your view ID is not one of the ones there...
Edited by BestJewSinceJC: n/a
Sorry, I was a lot more rusty with commands than I thought I was. Nevertheless the code I gave you before works. I used this class and it works fine for me. (Excuse the goofiness/bad programming practice with making the Composite a static member... )
package testpluginproj;
import org.eclipse.swt.SWT;
import org.eclipse.swt.events.SelectionAdapter;
import org.eclipse.swt.events.SelectionEvent;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Button;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Composite;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Label;
import org.eclipse.ui.PlatformUI;
import org.eclipse.ui.part.ViewPart;
public class ViewPart1 extends ViewPart {
static Composite parent = null;
public ViewPart1() {
// TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
public void createPartControl(Composite parent) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stu
Button ok = new Button (parent, SWT.PUSH);
this.parent = parent;
ok.setText ("Push to show the view!");
ok.addSelectionListener(new SelectionAdapter() {
public void widgetSelected(SelectionEvent e) {
ViewPart yourView = (ViewPart)PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage().findView("TestPluginProj.myview");
Label label = new Label(ViewPart1.parent,SWT.NONE);
public void setFocus() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Anyway, the above works for me and modifies the View so that it says "Kyle's View" which is the name of it.
Ok I checked and it does give out that view ID .So this is what I think could be a problem. The class which i am using to call the view does not extend ViewParts and hence does not have the CreatePartControl method. Hence the initialization doesn't take place.
because when I tried the piece of code that shows me all the view ids even that was throwing a null pointer exception.
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getHelpSystem().setHelp(viewer.getControl(),"StoryEditor.diagram.viewer"); //this probably initializes it or soemthing
ya. This is o.k...!
But how do i call it from a class that does not extend viewParts.. And when i don't wanna write this inside createPartControl()
If you want to show something on an Eclipse Workbench Window like you said a bunch of posts ago, then that something will have to be shown in a View, which in turn, will have to extend ViewPart.
Oh, and if you use the showView method by just replacing that code I showed you earlier by changing findView to showView, then it will make the view appear. Isn't that what you wanted to do this whole time?
Edited by BestJewSinceJC: n/a
Even if I create a separate class like the one you have written and call the createPartControl(parent) method from outside the function what should the argument "parent" be?
I find it hard to believe that none of my suggestions thus far have helped, but additionally, you can check out this article on Swing/SWT Interactions. However, if as you said you want to "show the Swing table in the Eclipse window" you're still going to need to use the suggestions I gave you about how to find the view and how to show the view.
No it has been helpful.I am doing soemthing wrong soemwhere.
So,suppose i have this class viewPart1 like the one you have written.
How do i call it from a swing class?
bt = new JButton();
bt.setText("Story plot");
bt.setToolTipText("View Story Plot");
lst = new ActionListener()
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
Composite parent =null;
ViewPart1 view = new ViewPart1();
The above code gives me an error saying illegal argument cannot be null;
Even if I create a separate class like the one you have written and call the createPartControl(parent) method from outside the function what should the argument "parent" be?
You should never call createPartControl. Eclipse handles calling that method for you. If you want to make modifications to the View, like I have already suggested, make a getter method in your ViewPart class.
public Composite getComposite(){
return parent; //where parent is what I have in my prev. ex.
Then you can add your Swing components to the Composite as is detailed in the article I just linked you to. You can then call the layout(true) method as I told you earlier, causing your changes to be visible. If you give me a few minutes, I will give you a full example if this doesn't make sense.
Edited by BestJewSinceJC: n/a
Ok, here is a quick example for you. As you can see, I created a new SwingComponent (which adds a Swing JButton into the SWT Composite) from within the ViewPart class. But you can call new SwingComponent from anywhere and it will work the same. Again, keep in mind the things I've told you earlier in the thread though: if the View isn't currently showing, you will have to call showView in order to see anything.
package testpluginproj;
import org.eclipse.swt.SWT;
import org.eclipse.swt.events.SelectionAdapter;
import org.eclipse.swt.events.SelectionEvent;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Button;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Composite;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Label;
import org.eclipse.ui.PlatformUI;
import org.eclipse.ui.part.ViewPart;
public class ViewPart1 extends ViewPart {
static Composite parent = null;
public ViewPart1() {
// TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
public void createPartControl(Composite parent) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stu
Button ok = new Button (parent, SWT.PUSH);
this.parent = parent;
ok.setText ("Push to show the view!");
ok.addSelectionListener(new SelectionAdapter() {
public void widgetSelected(SelectionEvent e) {
new SwingComponent();
public static Composite getComposite(){
return parent;
public void setFocus() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
package testpluginproj;
import java.awt.Frame;
import javax.swing.JButton;
import org.eclipse.swt.SWT;
import org.eclipse.swt.awt.SWT_AWT;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Composite;
public class SwingComponent {
public SwingComponent(){
Composite parent = ViewPart1.getComposite();
Composite composite = new Composite(parent, SWT.EMBEDDED | SWT.NO_BACKGROUND);
Frame frame = SWT_AWT.new_Frame(composite);
frame.add(new JButton("STUFF"));
Thanks!a lot..This should work!
I will try it and let you know soon!
Thanks :)
Thank you !
Had to make modifications.Used syncExec() also..and finally it works!
Thanks a lot!
No problem, glad you got it working! Mark the thread as solved

Del Rio, Tennessee
Tennessee Department of Transportation
Tennessee Department of Transportation
The Wolf Creek Bridge over the French Broad River and Norfolk Southern Railroad in Cocke County, Tennessee, is a five span, reinforced concrete spandrel arch bridge. The bridge was designed by the State of Tennessee in 1925 and constructed in 1926. The bridge is 629.5 foot long and consists of five arched spans. Its historical significance, scenic setting and strong aesthetic appeal merited TDOT's decision to invest nearly $9 million in an extensive renovation of the bridge.
The bridge is a vital link to several small communities between Tennessee and North Carolina. A primary challenge was the construction and maintenance of a haul road to provide access for equipment and personnel and to facilitate demolition operations and the containment of debris.
Bell utilized an Accelerated Bridge Construction technique on this project by implementing the use precast concrete. The spandrel bents, fascia beams and bridge deck were all constructed at an offsite location prior to the completion of the demolition. This significantly reduced the schedule for the reconstruction while maintaining the architectural appeal. In typical Bell fashion, we completed this project ahead of schedule and collected the incentive for the early completion. This project will preserve a landmark bridge that spans the French Broad River and uniquely enhances its beautiful natural setting in the mountains of East Tennessee.

"To know Christ and to make Him known."
Dear Friends,
When I look at the number of people actively taking places of responsibility in our church I am much encouraged. About 75% of members' names appeared on the 'Church Appointments' list and a number of those people were taking on several responsibilities. There are also many jobs done, such as welcoming us at the door, which are vital and covered by volunteers on rotas which do not appear on that list. A very big "Thank you" to all of you. You are all vital parts of the working of Christ's body. We are very blessed at Bookham.
When we look around the URC denomination the picture is very varied. Some churches seem to be alive and growing in their faith, others seem hardly to be surviving. I preached to a congregation of 4 at one church recently! It was interesting, then, to read a challenging article the other day which was looking at why churches stall. Some of the reasons put forward you may not agree with, but here are some of the suggestions. (i) The church forgets who we are and what we are for. Mission becomes one of many activities rather than defining the vision of who we are as a community. (ii) People get satisfied not to grow spiritually and are happy with the comfort and warm company on offer rather than radical sacrificial living. (iii) When a large percentage of the congregation become passive receivers of ministry rather than taking responsibility for their own spiritual growth. (iv) People confuse Christian activities with discipleship. We do many good churchy things but are these the same as living out the Gospel ? (v) Not understanding the need to use spiritual gifts and want the leader to do everything ! There were other suggestions in the article!
In their beginning all churches were adventures in faith. No-one actively decided for comfort over risk, but for some there has been a point where the mindset has shifted from uncomfortable faith and passion to a more comfortable church lifestyle. Steps of faith are always uncomfortable. Our church in Bookham has an amazing history of the grace and blessing of God and the vision of its members over the years and many in the current congregation can recall how they have been blessed by the ministry of God's faithful servants. It is good, though, not to be complacent and to take stock as to where we are and where we think God is leading us. On Saturday March 27th we will be having a Church Day during which we will be prayerfully considering what our mission is and we will also be looking at the Feasibility Study ideas to see whether any of them match our aspirations as a church. Please make this day a priority if you possibly can.
Let us continue to pray for each other as we seek the way forward under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
With my love,

The practice of cultivating fungi as a primary food source has evolved multiple times: in leaf-cutting ants, in termites, and in several groups of beetles. In many cases, these fungus-farming insects have a major influence on the structure and function of their native terrestrial ecosystems.
Fungus farming has now been found in a very different organism—one that lives in a semi-aquatic realm. Silliman and Newell surveyed the feeding habits of the marine snail Littoraria irrorata in salt marshes on the Atlantic cost of North America. The snails graze on saltmarsh cordgrass, Spartina alterniflora, opening wounds that are colonized by ascomycete fungi on which the snails feed. The facilitation of fungus colonization by the snails significantly depresses cordgrass growth, disproportionately beyond the physical damage inflicted by the snails. This phenomenon is widespread in salt marshes along the Atlantic coast, and the authors speculate that similar fungus-farming relationships may be as yet undiscovered in marine habitats. — AMS

The convenience of paying bills online or buying the new television you have been eyeing for weeks directly from your smartphone can easily be dwarfed by the risk of compromising sensitive, personal information.
In 2016, m-commerce companies experienced an average of 880 fraud attempts each, of which roughly 66 percent were successful.
Taking proactive measures to address legitimate concerns, banks, insurance providers and retailers have implemented advanced roadblocks, incorporating authentication methods like PINs, passwords and fingerprints to streamline user verification and ease apprehensions among consumers.
However, the steady stream of breaches and hacking scenarios across industries challenges the progress of cybersecurity measures, revealing just how much work is still needed to fully optimize and protect the information of millions of internet users. To that end, skilled hackers are proving that these methods are critically outdated and will continue to generate massive financial and operational issues for businesses, if not properly addressed.
New research reveals that retailers could lose nearly $71 billion in the next five years on transactions, such as online or mobile, where the card is not present. PINs, passwords and even fingerprints are no longer a sufficient means of securing private information or authenticating users. More layers of information are required while maintaining an easy user interface. Behavioral biometric authentication is one of the most advanced technologies available to do just that.
The origin of PINs and passwords dates back decades, alongside the evolution of the internet, as the need for a foolproof means of identification became increasingly critical. Over the years, businesses have gone through countless iterations, refining their approaches to cybersecurity in a desperate attempt to keep up with modern technology and social engineering. Today, even as countries like the United States and Canada boast impressive achievements in the cybersecurity protection space, 25 people in the U.S. fall victim to identity theft every minute — leading to $15 billion in losses from 13.1 million consumers in 2015.
Hackers are getting much more sophisticated and can easily infiltrate data storage devices, allowing for rapid escalation in identify theft and fraudulent transactions. Even fingerprints, which were once heralded as one of the strongest methods of human identification, can now be copied and used to expertly defeat biometric authentication. If static biometric data can actually be as vulnerable to mimicry, spoofing and impersonation as passwords, it raises the question: How can companies keep confidential information safe?
A holistic 360-degree view of customer interactions, coupled with multidimensional biometrics allows for cybersecurity systems to build layers upon layers of intel to create precisely accurate models of every single user and device.
A hacker may very well be able to duplicate an intricate human fingerprint, but there is virtually no way to compromise the behavioral signatures of an individual — let alone replicating the process across thousands to millions of users. With the ability to recognize small changes in the angle at which a user is accustomed to holding their mobile phone, to typical pressure and swipe mannerisms and the user's gait, behavioral biometrics allows companies to be much more detailed in detecting potential fraud or attempted identity theft. Even the most adept hackers will find it extremely difficult to fool a system that analyzes hundreds of behavioral characteristics of a single user and continues to change and learn new metrics in real time.
Much like everything around us, the future of cybersecurity and authentication is evolving at a faster pace than some can imagine. Despite significant advances, scientists and engineers have only scratched the surface of authentication.
While it is critical that companies protect the identities of their users from hackers and criminals, it is also mandatory to develop a frictionless customer experience, so as not to lose the business of consumers frustrated by a burdensome process. Therefore, the technology has to be lightweight yet powerful enough that it learns independently and quickly from the individual device of the user.
AI-powered continuous authentication and N-dimensional biometrics bring a multilayered system of personalized defense to create trust that cannot be achieved by any other means. Anything less is no longer sufficient.
Fingerprints and standard security questions must be taken a step further. Closely analyzing and studying individualized human characteristics to develop sophisticated user models is what will ultimately create the greatest obstacle for hackers.

Choosing the best poker room and bonus for you!pokeroff
If you've gone through our beginners course for poker players, the questions you're probably asking yourself are "Which poker room should I play in?" and "Wh...
The phrase "for free" and poker can sometime be heard in the same sentence, something that should give heart to newbies. Beginners are sometimes first attracted to poker rooms by non-deposit bonuses that allow players to compete for small amounts of real money. Thanks to non-deposit bonuses, you can become accustomed to the peculiarities of each particular poker room whilst testing your skills against real players. You can also start to build your own bankroll using your free bonus as a starting point.
In addition, if you sign up to a poker room with Pokeroff, you can get access to exclusive freerolls - free tournaments with a monetary prize fund. Poker is one of the few games where you can earn real money without having to risk a single cent of your own.
If you have decided to take up online poker and have learned the main aspects of the game, then why not begin your poker career with a no-deposit bonus? You will be able to play poker without having to invest any of your own cash!
With Pokeroff, you can start to build your bankroll in several of the most popular poker rooms, and you can also try winning your first real cash in a freeroll. You can receive information on this in our "Free" section where we regularly provide updated information on upcoming tournaments and bonuses. At the moment we offer a freeroll tournament at PokerStars, William Hill, Full Tilt Poker and 888Poker! Keep a keen eye on our "Free" section, as we fill our list with new offers on a regular basis.
Is it possible to be a successful poker player starting with a no-deposit bonus?
Most of you will probably reply that starting with a no-deposit bonus will not allow you to gather a decent bankroll, and that you'll have to invest some of your own cash - but this is not true! If you learn strategy and watch VODs on our website, you could become a part of poker history yourself as the player who began his career with nothing but a no-deposit bonus.
As an example, take the case of our fellow countryman Marat "maratik" Sharafutdinov who won the main PokerStars event at WCOOP 2012 with a $5,200 buy-in, earning $1,000,907 in the process. The legend that is Chris Moneymaker is worth a mention as well, as he won a prize pool worth more than $3,000,000, and he began by playing for free at PokerStars!

Myth: Cardio (treadmill, elliptical trainer, stationary bicycle) should be done first at the gym to warm up before weight training.
Reality: A cardio workout should not be done before exercising with weights or resistance training. Your aim is to use the body's fuel – glucose (sugar in the blood) – during the workout to provide energy. Most peoples' goals in coming to a gym include wanting to lose or maintain weight so they often do cardio first because that is their first priority. But doing cardio first will burn much, if not all, of the glucose in your blood (how much you have to burn depends on the amount of carbs eaten before the workout).
If you deplete the fuel and then weight train, you may no longer have enough glucose to lift the weights. Because your body needs to obtain energy from somewhere to be able to do the exercise, it will break down the muscle tissue you have already built to gain what it needs to lift the new weight. This is obviously not the goal.
Glucose should help with the heavy workload. You still need to warm up properly, which can include five minutes of light cardio, and then use the energy stores to lift weights and build muscle. This completed, your body will be in fat-burning mode with glucose stores depleted, and then you do cardio — at the end when you will burn fat for fuel. The level of fat-burning depends on your nutrition prior, during and after the workout, and your exercise intensity level.

Sketches from Beaulieu and Les Jardins Marquessac.
My artist friend Sarah visited and we visited les jardins Marquessac.I am totally inspired to finish my garden here at Coin Perdu, not to mention painting! I worked in different sketchbooks and I am considering going back to Moleskine, all three sizes.
..a sketch done in Beaulieu while waiting for my physiotherapy appointment..
pencil, pilot prera pen and aquarelle in LANA watercolour sketchbook, 14x22cm(this is a lovely sketchbook with 300g paper, 25 pages and a great size, with the only drawback being the spiral back.)
..a sketch of a street in Beaulieu..
watercolour in Daler & Rowney Ebony sketchbook, 14.9X21 cm(this paper still buckles a lot with washes, but it is not too disturbing. I like the hardback so it makes working across 2 pages quite easy.)
..the marketplace in St Céré..
watercolour and prera pen in Daler & Rowney graduate sketchbook,22X14.9cm(this is suitable only for drawing…a nightmare for washes..but it was all I had in my bag.)
watercolour and prera pen in Daler & Rowney Ebony sketchbook, 14.9X21 cm
Resketch the gargoyle and fountain.
I wasn't satisfied with the gargoyle sketch 2 posts ago and even leaving it to the art fairy didn't help. In fact the more I looked at it, the worse it got. So today I decided to redo it. I am still not in heaven about the sketch, but at least it is a bit better and I am tired of that spot in the garden. I suppose you can't win all the time.And now I have to move on.
Gargoyle fountain
watercolour and dip pen with black ink in daler rowney sketchbook, 21X29.7cm
Aquarelle sketches of garden corners.
I sat out in the garden today and turned my chair 180 degrees to get to 4 sketches. My anduze pot with a young cycad , then the apple tree behind a table, the gagoile fountain next to a potted lemon tree and lastly the old barn door with a lost sunflower beside it. All 4 sketches are somewhat wonky: the cycad in the first sketch is really terrible and the gargoyle is yotally off scale and askew…in reality the gargoyle is beautiuful, orignating from the 13th centurychateau de Chauvigny and it was a birthday giort from mon chéri many years ago.
..anduze pot with a young cycad..
watercolor and pentel brush pen in Daler Rowney sketchbook, 21X29.7 cm
..apple tree and table with terracotta pot..
watercolor and pentel brush pen in Daler Rowney sketchbook, 21X29.7 cm

..old barn door with wilted sunflower..
watercolor and dip pen with black ink in Daler Rowney sketchbook, 21X29.7 cm
Sketching in the garden
This morning it rained. then the rain made way for the sun. We decided some grilled fish would be great for lunch. While mon chéri grilled our daurade over the coals, I lazily, splashed watercolor and squiggled pen lines in two Stilman &Birn sketchbooks. White tulips in an urn and white daffodils among boxwoods…simple scenes turned into messy washes…how I love it..!
..Sketching in the garden 1..
pen and watercolor washes in Stillman & Birn sketchbook, alpha, 22.9×15.2cm

Leaving your Advertisements in place when upgrading vBulletin
Posted on Sep 21, 2010 in Adsense • Advertising • vBulletin
Whenever updating your vBulletin forum all your template edits usually get lost. It's very annoying as you manually have to add them again. So it is with your advertisements. You have to copy+paste the codes and embed them in your new style. This really takes a lot of time and is annoying. So, thanks to vBulletin's inherit system we can make the process a lot easier!
Using master styles to make updating hassle-freeWhat I showed in the video was a master style I used. The child styles inherit customized templates from the parent style. In this case, they inherited the ad location templates.
- Create a blank style. –> Add new Style. "Ad-Style".
- Go to the settings of your child style, set it as a child of the Ad-Style
- Customize the ad location templates in the Ad-Style
- The child style will inherit them. Make sure that you revert the to be-inherited templates in the child style first. They may not be red!
- This does not work for edits you did in the navbar/showthread templates.
