Last week, as some of us were heading off for the long holiday weekend (Easter is a holiday here in Brazil), the Brazilian government was quietly releasing deforestation trends showing an increase in deforestation for the first time in five years.
These numbers use the DETER rapid response satellite system, a system that provides estimates of deforestation rates every month. Over the time period documented, August 2012 to February 2013, the rates increased an estimated 26.82% and an area of the Amazon larger than the size of the city of London disappeared.
In absolute numbers, that means 1,695 square kilometers (654 square miles) of forest have disappeared. That equals an area the size of 237,000 soccer fields.
The state of Maranhão saw the biggest increase (121%), followed by Tocantins (110%). However, Mato Grosso state continued to top the list of forest destruction with 734 square kilometers of forest lost.
The increase in deforestation rates can be directly attributed to the Brazilian government's systematic dismantling of the laws and agencies that protect the Amazon. These changes opened up the Amazon for destruction, making the current citizen's initiative for Zero Deforestation Law in Brazil even more necessary.
President Dilma Rousseff's approval of a new Forest Code, a law that provides amnesty for crimes committed after 2008 in the Amazon and reduces large areas of protected land, paved the way for the increase in deforestation. The president also structurally weakened government agencies like IBAMA, the federal environmental enforcement agency, so unfortunately it won't be a surprise if deforestation continues to rise in the Amazon.
More than 800,000 Brazilians have already signed onto a citizen's initiative calling for a Zero Deforestation law that would offer full protection for the Amazon. With the president's support this could become law. Greenpeace is calling on Rousseff to support a law for Zero Deforestation in Brazil.
Take action!

Deforestation and Greenpeacen seems to be a pepetuum mobile...today we stop it and a year or two later deforestation is increasing again.

I do love the scipt of my friend Bustar Maitar and Indonesia...cut down all the forests in APP-supply chain and then start to negotiate with Greenpeace until they certify you to be sustainable...
Where have all the forests gone...don't forget to donate! The show must go on.
And don't forget to tell Obama to stop deforestation...this guy is bad, I think he promised that he would do so!

Sun Wu, this is not the fault of Greenpeace. This is the fault of corporations, and governments which kowtow to them, wishing to make an ever greater monetary profit at the expense of environmental concerns which wind up effecting every global citizen. It is unfair to place the blame on Greenpeace, a stalwart supporter of the environment since its inception, instead of placing the blame on those who stand to gain the greatest economic benefit to the deforestation which is occurring. When governments are largely held accountable by corporations and corporate money rather than the average citizen, it can hardly be expected that any alternative would occur. It is because of Greenpeace, and other organizations with similar aims, that deforestation is still a concern instead of becoming ancient history when no forest will be left to preserve, and all of humanity and plant and animal wildlife is no longer around to worry about what we should have long ago done to prevent our own destruction from occurring.

Yes...of course.
Great opportunity to anounce victories on a daily basis though, don't you think?
And great opportunity ...
Yes...of course.
Great opportunity to anounce victories on a daily basis though, don't you think?
And great opportunity for Greenpeace to negotiate and feel important on a daily basis, correct?
Only question: WHAT ARE ALL THOSE DAILY VICTORIES ACTUALLY WORTH with e.g. APP having cleared all forests in its supply-chain before they started to negotiate?
...and what harm is being done with Greenpeace e.g. certifying APP's future strategy to be sustainable with APP having already cut down all its forests...
...and, as we all should know by now, will start to cut down trees as soon as they need more pulp?
Is it legitim to ask if all these victories anounced are anounced because of having achieved something...or rather to pretend having achieved something with Greenpeace in an urgent need of legitimization itself after years of 'creative communication' and the fact some childish Facebook-reality seems to have taken over in Amsterdam?

I am writing this for the second time. I was almost finished and was in the process of adding a pic when……it all crashed! And the automatic save did not automatically save! So I have returned from having a nice cup of tea and a sit down!
Last nights foray into the Big City Centre started off slowly but built up to a crescendo by 0400hrs. I had checked the Foxtrot Oscar RRV for all the equipment it should carry. Defib/monitor, drugs bag, trauma bag, resus O2 bag, entonox etc. I then picked up the Police officer from the main Police station in the city. "K" was to be my crewmate for the shift from 2000hrs. till 0400hrs. It was "K"s first full shift on the Foxtrot Oscar vehicle. It is becoming more and more popular with the Police and the waiting list to go on it is growing week by week.
Our first job was to a man lying in the street. On arrival scene we were met by a Police Inspector and a PC who had come across this man whilst on foot patrol. It was quite obvious that he was NFA (no fixed abode) and was sleeping rough. He had propped himself up against an air vent which was pushing out warm air from the residential building down this side street. The Inspector had contacted Police comms to ask for our attendance as he was not sure if this man was injured. This is the beauty of working the Foxtrot Oscar system, the Police can ask for us direct and the Ambulance comms can also ask for us where a Police presence is required.
I asked the gent on the floor if he was okay? He said that he had bought some new boots and they had given him blisters…and he wanted to go to A/E! Knowing full well that some people living on the street have contracted "trench foot" due to the practice of wrapping their feet in plastic bags, I asked him to remove his footwear and socks…..hindsight is a wonderful thing! Yep…sure enough, nasty looking blisters but not nasty enough to warrant a trip to A/E. The main problem for us now was that we were now being gassed by the noxious fumes emanating from his ends of his legs! His feet were black with grime and the smell of his cheese encrusted, sweat soaked, swamp gas, putrid skin was made worse by the warm air wafting from the air vent over him!!! Luckily the Inspector found him a place in a Hostel and he was taken there.
Another job was to a "pseudo-fitter" in a pub. She was young girl who pretends to fit and kicks off at everybody within hitting distance. Apparently she suffers from ADHD ( what used to be called being a nuisance or naughty). She was also well known to the Police as "K" recognised her straight away. Mum turned up and eventually calmed her down and took her home. Police comms were still reading out her ASBO conditions 10 minutes later as we headed back into the City Centre!
Most of the rest of the shifts jobs were assault related (due to drink obviously). One was to a young lad with a split nose and lip and redesigned shirt. He had smacked a bouncer (sorry door supervisor operative) and was then surprised to get smacked back…but harder! Other assaults involved broken noses of various shapes and sizes and bumps, bruises, cuts, grazes, nicks and a fair bit of spillage of "claret". Most fights were due to misunderstandings….ie, misunderstanding that the lads you have just gobbed off to are much more sober than you and therefore can land better punches than you!
All in all, we attended 15 incidents and managed to deal with 13 without having to tie up an ambulance. This also works for the police as they can get someone quickly on scene to check out an injured person before arresting them rather than having to send an officer with them to the hospital. There are plans for the scheme to be expanded.

Video Highlights
Post-Game Press Conference (Coming Soon)
The Ferris State University men's ice hockey team took its first step toward a second consecutive trip to the Central Collegiate Hockey Association (CCHA) Championships with a 3-1 game-one victory over Western Michigan this Friday (March 11) evening in a CCHA Tournament Quarterfinal-Round series matchup in Kalamazoo, Mich., as senior goaltender Pat Nagle (Bloomfield) made 31 saves and sophomore center Travis Ouellette (Windsor, Ontario) tallied a pair of goals.
Ferris State, the tournament's fifth seed, improved its overall record to 18-14-5 while fourth-seed Western Michigan falls to 16-11-10 overall on the season. The Bulldogs are now one win away from clinching the best-of-three second-round tourney series and punching their ticket to the CCHA Championships next weekend (March 18-19) at Joe Louis Arena in Detroit, Mich., for the second year in a row.
The first 8:29 of the contest before a crowd of 2,660 fans at WMU's Lawson Ice Arena was scoreless until freshman center Cory Kane (Irvine, Calif.) fired a wrist shot from the bottom of the left circle which went top shelf, short side over Western Michigan goaltender Jerry Kuhn's shoulder to give Ferris State a 1-0 lead. Senior defenseman Scott Wietecha (Wolverine Lake) would pick up his first of two assists on the night with a helper on the Kane goal, which occurred at the 11:31 mark.
Western Michigan would tie the game up at 1-1 in the second period with their lone score of the night at 5:21 into the frame. Mike Leone found the Bulldog net with a shot from above the slot which sailed above Pat Nagle's right shoulder for the equalizer.
The final two scores belonged exclusively to Ferris State, thanks to a pair of back-to-back lamplighters by Travis Ouellette. The Bulldog forward would record his seventh goal of the season on a Ferris State power-play opportunity with a nifty backhanded shot between the left goal post and Jerry Kuhn's pad off of junior defenseman Brett Wysopal's (LaGrange Park, Ill.) rebound shot with 3:30 remaining in the second period. Scott Wietecha also had a hand in the Ferris goal with his second helper of the game and would register his second point of the evening.
Travis Ouellette's empty-net lamplighter in the third period, his eighth goal of this campaign, secured the Bulldog win with 39 seconds remaining to be played in the game.
For the contest, Western Michigan outshot Ferris 32-29 and was unsuccessful in four man-advantage opportunities while the Bulldogs converted one of three power-play chances. WMU netminder Jerry Kuhn (9-6-6) totaled 26 saves, including 11 second-period stops, in the loss.
Pat Nagle (18-12-5) was chosen as the first star of the game while Travis Ouellette earned the contest's second star for their noteworthy performances. Nagle, a 2010-11 CCHA First-Team pick and a finalist for the 2010-11 CCHA RBC Player of the Year Award, stopped 13 shots in the second period and 10 more in the third.
Ferris State and Western Michigan will face off again this Saturday (March 12) in the second game of their CCHA Tournament Quarterfinal-Round series, starting at 7:05 p.m. (EST) in Kalamazoo, Mich. The Bulldogs can claim the tourney-elimination series with a win and advance to the 2011 CCHA Championship Semifinals next Friday, March 18, at Joe Louis Arena in Detroit, Mich.
Notes: Travis Ouellette has recorded three consecutive two-point game outings to date after his two goals at Western Michigan. He has generated a combined six points (3-3=6) during that span . . . The Bulldogs haven't allowed a power-play goal in their last four contests, which includes 13 scoring chances for the opposition . . . Ferris State's 18 victories this season represents a tie for the eighth-most single-season victories in the program's history and a fifth-place tie for the highest wins output during head coach Bob Daniels' Bulldog coaching career . . . Brett Wysopal extended his point streak to a season-high five games with an assist in tonight's game and has accumulated a combined six points (0-6=6) in those five outings . . . Pat Nagle notched his 18th win of this season (18-12-5 record) which is the second most in FSU history only to Mike Brown's 30 victories (30-10-1 record) in the 2002-03 campaign.

From CBT Therapist to CBT Supervisor
Judith S. Beck and Daniella Cavenagh
How do you become a skilled CBT supervisor? Delivering effective CBT supervision requires a highly specialized, advanced set of competencies for which clinical acumen is essential but not sufficient. A growing body of literature indicates the importance of:
- developing the relationship with supervisees, including eliciting and responding effectively to their feedback
- setting goals with supervisees
- accurately assessing supervisees' strengths and weaknesses
- developing effective individualized plans for supervision to implement within supervision sessions and across sessions
- structuring supervision sessions (in a similar way to therapy sessions)
- providing experiential exercises in and between supervision sessions (including having supervisees practice CBT conceptualization and treatment techniques on themselves)
- regularly reviewing and providing feedback on therapy recordings and on the progress of the supervisee
- teaching supervisees how to engage in effective self-reflection
- using self-reflection yourself
- engaging, on an ongoing basis, in activities to improve your own clinical and supervisory competence
When we train CBT supervisors, we first train them to be effective CBT therapists. Most of the competencies listed above have parallels in CBT treatment. Once therapists have developed a sufficient level of competence as a therapist, we provide training and supervision in CBT supervision, which includes reading the literature on CBT supervision, attending workshops on training and supervision, and receiving supervision on doing supervision (based on tape reviews of both client sessions and one's own supervision sessions).
Self-reflection is also a crucial part of effective supervision. Supervisors need to objectively examine their knowledge and skill set and attitudes (about supervision, trainees, clients, and CBT in general). We first teach clinicians how to rate therapy sessions they conduct with their own clients (using the Cognitive Therapy Rating Scale), then how to rate the therapy sessions of their supervisees.
We also help them assess how they conducted the supervision session. For example, did they appropriately attend to the supervisee's developmental stage? (In our experience, supervisees with relatively little CBT experience may benefit from a somewhat more directive approach than an experienced CBT supervisees for whom greater collaboration is effective). Did they use experiential learning strategies such as role plays? Did they competently handle any ethical issues? Were they attuned to cultural and diversity issues between the trainee and themselves, the trainee and the client, and indirectly, the client and themselves? Did they actively seek feedback and respond appropriately to it?
Finally, we teach supervisors (and supervisors-to-be) to reflect on the effectiveness of the supervision session as a whole. What did they do well? What might they need to improve upon? What can they do to increase their competency?
Providing CBT supervision is an incredibly rewarding experience when you see your supervisees becoming more competent and confident and their clients making good progress. But a strong CBT clinician will not necessarily be a strong CBT supervisor. We encourage researchers to continue conducting studies to establish evidence-based CBT training and supervision competencies and practices — and we encourage clinicians who wish to become supervisors to seek out effective training.

This week I've been working with Jared Nielsen, one of the Museum's Exhibit Technicians, who also happens to be a DIY (Do it Yourself) enthusiast. With his help we've managed to build and install two nest boxes and launch our first garden surveillance balloon!
Jared installing a nest box in the Shadow Garden
The other nest box in the Home GardenThe nest boxes we chose are made of PVC and designed to be particularly appealing to certain cavity nesting birds such as Western Bluebirds, Sialia mexicana. These birds have been spotted in Exposition Park by Kimball Garrett, the Museum's resident ornithologist, and we hope they'll stick around to use our new nesting sites. The boxes are also designed to be minimally appealing to other species of birds that we don't wish to encourage, such as introduced European Starlings, Sturnus vulgaris, and House Sparrows, Passer domesticus.We ordered the boxes from the Gilbertson Nestbox Company and Jared brought all the materials necessary to assemble and install them in the North Campus. The cost for all materials including the nest box is approximately $30 each. Instructions for installation and how to properly monitor birds that move in are available on the Gilbertson website.I'll keep you posted, and let you know as soon as any birds move in. Of course Sam Easterson, our resident video naturalist is also waiting in the wings. As soon as a nest is built, he will install a video camera and we'll hopefully be able to capture images of eggs being laid and nestlings hatching!As if that wasn't exciting enough, today we launched our first garden surveillance balloon.
Affixing the surveillance camera to the balloonOur garden surveillance balloon is a project Jared discovered through the Public Laboratory for Open Technology and Science. Their Grassroots Mapping project provides instructions on how to build your own balloon mapping kit, or you can purchase a kit for $85 from their website!Jared opted for the DIY approach and sourced all of his own materials, including the 2 meter wide weather balloon and a rental helium tank! Following the Grassroots Mapping instructions, Jared rigged the balloon to carry a camera and tethered it to a 1000 foot long string which he held onto as we walked it around the site. The camera was also adapted to continually take pictures every second until our 16 megabyte memory card was full (about 2 hours). Over the next few days Jared will take all the images and stich them together using a free online software that will create an aerial map of the North Campus gardens. Not only will this map look really cool, it will also help us to keep track of all of the plants in the gardens and see how it changes over time. Yes, we are going to do this again, maybe even every few months!
We needed a lot of help from staff to make sure the balloon didn't float away as we were filling it with helium!(Jesse Daniel, Jared, Briana Burrows, and Karen Ewald)

Benefits & Features
Our SKINS A400 Youth Half Tights are the ideal secret weapon to help your kids score the winning try, kick the final goal, or beat their PB on the track.
Our Dynamic Gradient Compression will increase circulation to deliver more oxygen to their active muscles while our flexible, flatter A-Seams are more durable and comfortable and will eliminate chafing - allowing them to be fully focused on the game or race ahead. Our A400 Youth Half Tights are constructed from five technical fabrics. The seams are placed to act as anchor points, offering focused support and stability to major muscle groups and help reduce the risk of injury.
Sometimes training in the evenings is unavoidable – even for kids - that's why we added 360-degree reflectivity to keep them visible in low light conditions.
Worried about the weather? Our ADAPTIVE Technology will keep them cool when it's hot and feeling warm when it's cool. How? The unique polymer binds moisture in its structure to keep them feeling warm and dry. Then as the body heats up the polymer releases stored moisture to the surface where it can evaporate, helping the body cool down. Pretty cool huh!
Check out the rest of our A400 youth range for the ideal sports compression set for your youngsters.

Junior John Holm picked right back where he left off last season, blasting a two-run homer in game one for Wabash to help the Little Giants to a 6-0 win over Bluffton on Saturday afternoon in Chillicothe, Ohio. Late inning struggles on the mound led to a 12-8 loss in game two versus Case Western Reserve.
Holm, who blasted a single-season record 15 home runs last year, hit his first round tripper of the 2011 season in sixth inning after Montana Timmons opened the frame with a lead-off walk. Holm added a sacrifice fly in the eighth to account for three of the Little Giants' six runs.
Starting pitcher Andrew Swart scattered seven hits over seven innings, striking out five while allowing just one walk. Freshman Nate Adams worked one inning with a hit and a walk before Luke Zinsmaster closed out the ninth with three straight strikeouts.
Tanner Coggins would supply the only run Wabash needed for the win in the second inning. He led off with a walk, eventually scoring on a fielder's choice by PJ Tyson.
John Pennington collected three of the Little Giants' eight hits, while Chris Deig had two hits.
Wabash jumped out to an 8-2 lead through six innings before Case Western rallied for two runs in the sixth, four in the seventh, and another four in the eighth innings. Brian Van Duyn worked 5-2/3 innings, giving up five hits and four runs with seven strikeouts and three walks. Freshman Kevin Clendening took the loss in his first collegiate appearance, surrendering three runs on three hits in one inning of work. Eric Foust and Pete Schmith also saw time on the mound for Wabash.
Pennington, Coggins, and Brian Lares each collected two hits in the game for Wabash. Holm added three more RBI to his early season totals.
The Little Giants will play Case Western two more times on Sunday afternoon before preparing for their spring break trip to California the first full week of March.
Wabash 6, Bluffton 0
Case Western 12, Wabash 8

TERRE HAUTE, IN – When the members of the Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology soccer programs prepared to travel to South America for the USA D-3 Brazil Soccer Select Tour, they knew there, the sport of fútbol would be a bigger deal than perhaps in say, the United States.
Sean Helliwell, head coach of the men's side of NCAA Division III all-stars from across the U.S., realized quickly he underestimated soccer's importance in perhaps the world's largest ambassador.
"Being in a country where soccer is No. 1, where you see kids playing on the beaches, in streets, there are soccer fields everywhere you look – that was just fantastic," the seventh-year RHIT coach said.
And while both teams did extremely well on the field – each went 3-1 during the week-long trip in early June – it was the friendships gained after the matches, when the teams traded jerseys and took photos – that really resonated with the visitors from America.
"It was just an experience of a lifetime," Helliwell added. "When you get to meet someone from a completely different country with a completely different background, where the one common bond was soccer – soccer drew these kids together. The kids really grew an appreciation and respect for one another."
Helliwell joined his wife – Rose-Hulman women's soccer head coach and the D-3 women's assistant Amy Helliwell – on the trip, along with several current RHIT players. They included, on the men's side: Drew Miller (Cincinnati, Ohio/Bishop Fenwick), Mike Smyser (Grand Rapids, Mich./Forest Hills Northern), Nick Kowalkowski (New Lenox, Ill./Lincoln Way), and Brad Rostron (Westlake, Texas/Southlake Carroll).
Hanover was represented on the women's side by: Rachel Alvis (Cincinnati, Ohio), Anna Cornacchione (Cincinnati, Ohio), Elaine Simpson (Lexington, Ky.), and recent Hanover graduate Chloe Hutchinson (Louisville, Ky.).
Miller, RHIT's starting goalkeeper who tended the net for the men's USA team, also commented on the drastic change in the sport's visibility.
"I absolutely loved it," Miller said. "You would drive along the road and it would seem like every mile or two you would pass a soccer field with people playing – kids or adults. All the sporting stories, it was all soccer – it was a nice culture shock for me, at least."
The teams traveled to several different cities within Brazil, taking on teams from Botafogo (the Brazil Naval base), Campinos, Valinhos, and Jundiai.
Both Helliwells said the most rewarding experience was that of their time in Campinos, when the USA women's squad was able to participate in "mini-games" with girls ages 13-23 in a special inclusion-type outreach program. After the time on the field, the women's team was able to spend time learning Brazilian dances and cheers.
"Some of the players literally had nothing – it was great to see the smiles on their faces when they met us," Amy Helliwell said of the experience. "It was a very humbling experience – as well as rewarding, inspiring and eye-opening."
Combs, who served as the women's side keeper throughout the trip, said those kinds of experiences were some of the best, as well as the relationships the U.S. teams – which included 32 players from across the country made in a very short period of time.
"The biggest thing that followed me through it and even coming back was the fact that I have so many more friends," she said. "We took 15 girls from literally almost everywhere in the country and almost instantly, we were a well-bonded team.
"I think that's something really cool that I value."
Along with plenty of soccer, the teams also got the chance for some sightseeing, making it to Rio de Janeiro to see the famous Christ the Redeemer Statue and Sugar Loaf Mountain.
And as for the competition? Both goalkeepers admitted there was one major difference.
"They could shoot," Miller said with a laugh. "If you gave them a shot from 40 yards out, it was dangerous."
Added Combs: "The first game, probably like 10 minutes into it, a girl takes a touch and just in half a second rockets this ball over my head – I was like, where did that come from?
"That's not something I've seen in a while … they had the power and precision with their shots and that was really impressive about their game."

Logically, there's a reason for the Strategy design pattern's well-deserved popularity: unlike the Composite and Decorator patterns, which are also important to pattern-driven programming, the logic that stands behind Strategy is much easier to grasp, and its implementation in several languages is fairly straightforward as well. While the aforementioned Composite and Decorator are powerful paradigms that permit you to tackle certain software development problems with elegance and efficiency, the truth is that they're also pretty confusing to understand, at least at first.
On the other hand, the Strategy pattern not only has a flatter learning curve than its cousins, but it allows you to implement two basic principles of object-oriented programming that you've probably heard before: "Favor Composition over Inheritance" and "Encapsulate the concept that varies." Yes, Strategy is a typical case where the power of Composition permits you to create loosely-coupled classes that can be consumed by client code or other classes through a highly-encapsulated interface, without having to create a redundant hierarchy of objects.
With all these goodies at hand for free, it's logical to think that implementing the Strategy pattern in PHP is a fairly straightforward process. Well, that's correct, too. And to demonstrate this, in the course of this article series I'll be showing how to implement the pattern in a real-world case: validating user supplied data. In doing so, you hopefully will learn the basic concepts that surround the application of the Strategy pattern, in addition to building a highly-modular data validation program, which you'll be able to tweak and improve at will.
Now, it's time to get rid of the preliminaries and start taking advantage of the functionality offered by the Strategy pattern in PHP. Let's go!
{mospagebreak title=Building a basic data validation class with PHP}
Before I start demonstrating how to implement the Strategy design pattern for checking incoming data in PHP, first it would be quite educational to set up an example that performs the same validation process through a single, pretty monolithic class. Once you see the drawbacks of using an approach like this more clearly, it'll be easier for you to understand how the Strategy pattern can tackle the process more efficiently.
Having clarified that point, here's the validation class that I plan to use at this initial stage:
class Validator {
protected $_errors = array();
// constructor (not implemented)
public function __construct(){}
// validate integers
public function checkInteger($value)
if (!is_int($value))
$this->_errors[strtolower($value)] = 'The supplied value must be an integer.';
return $this;
// validate floats
public function checkFloat($value)
if (!is_float($value))
$this->_errors[strtolower($value)] = 'The supplied value must be a float number.';
return $this;
// validate strings
public function checkString($value)
if (!is_string($value))
$this->_errors[strtolower($value)] = 'The supplied value must be a string.';
return $this;
// get validation errors
public function getErrors()
return $this->_errors;
// clear validation errors
public function clearErrors()
$this->_errors = array();
// validate supplied data
public function validate()
return empty($this->_errors) ? true : false;
As you can see above, the example "Validator" class implements a few simple methods which are mere proxies for the native "is_int()," "is_float()" and "is_string()" PHP functions. Besides that, the class defines an additional "validate()" method for determining whether or not the supplied data is valid. So far, there's nothing unexpected with the inner workings of this class, right?
Having already explained how the previous "Validator" does its business, it's time to give it a try and test its real functionality. The script below uses the class's main methods for checking the validity of some trivial data. Take a look at it, please:
$validator = new Validator;
// validate some basic data
if (!$validator->validate())
// display validation errors
$errors = $validator->getErrors();
foreach ($errors as $value => $error)
echo 'The value ' . $value . ' is incorrect. ' . $error . '<br />';
/* displays the following
The value abcde is incorrect. The supplied value must be a float number.
The value 12.345 is incorrect. The supplied value must be a string.
echo 'Congratulations! Your data is correct!';
Well, that worked decently well. Once an instance of the "Validator" class has been spawned, checking for integers, floats and strings is only a matter of chaining the corresponding validation methods and displaying the errors that might have occurred during the verification process. It's that simple, really.
At this point, you may be wondering what could be wrong with the "Validator" class if it yields such good results (at least for example purposes). First off, the model is not very flexible; the only way to extend the class's functionality is via Inheritance. And last, but not least, I have to say that "Validator" looks somewhat like a god class because it attempts to validate every type of data through a set of discrete methods.
It becomes evident that a class like this should be used as a helper only in simple use cases. However, as an application grows in complexity, it's necessary to implement a more modular, powerful and flexible solution. And here's exactly where the Strategy pattern comes into play, since it permits you to easily apply the two "great commandments" of the object-oriented paradigm mentioned in the introduction. In simple terms, the pattern uses Composition to inject an instance of a class that encapsulates certain functionality into another one, which allows you to perform a task according to a predefined strategy.
If this explanation sounds somewhat confusing to you, let me elaborate this concept a bit further with the example that you just saw. Instead of defining a class that tries to validate everything via a bunch of concrete methods, it'd be more effective to split it up in a group of smaller classes, where each one would be responsible for checking only one type of data. This would encapsulate the concept that varies, in this case the validation process itself.
Finally, each of these validation classes would be injected into a helper class, which would make it possible to check incoming data according to a certain validation strategy (i.e. an integer validation strategy, a float validation strategy and so forth). Got the point? I hope so.
Of course, by far the best way to understand how the Strategy pattern can be used to validate input data is by showing some functional code. In keeping with this, in the next section I'm going to define the bare bones structure of a whole new helper class, which will accept via Composition the set of discrete validation classes mentioned before.
To see how this helper class will be created, read the lines to come.
{mospagebreak title=Implementing the Strategy design pattern to validate incoming data}
As I said, it's feasible to build a modular and flexible data validation application by taking advantage of the functionality offered by the Strategy pattern. To do so, I'll start by defining a simple web form helper. It will take as an input argument a validator object (the strategy), whose originating class will be shown in upcoming articles of this series.
For the moment, however, focus your attention on the definition of the helper, which looks like this:
class FormHelper
protected $_validators = array();
protected $_errors = array();
// add a validator
public function addValidator(AbstractValidator $validator)
$this->_validators[] = $validator;
return $this;
// get all the validators
public function getValidators()
return !empty($this->_validators) ? $this->_validators : null;
// validate inputted data
public function validate()
$validators = $this->getValidators();
if (null !== $validators)
foreach ($validators as $validator)
if (!$validator->validate())
$this->_errors[] = $validator->getFormattedError();
return empty($this->_errors) ? true : false;
As you can see, the above "FormHelper" class implements for now three concrete methods. The first one, called "addValidator()," permits you to inject a set of independent validation objects, which are stored on the protected $_validators" property. This method is actually the "heart and soul" of the Strategy pattern, as it uses the power of Composition to inject a predefined validation strategy inside the helper class.
On the other hand, the "validate()" method first iterates over all the inputted validator objects, uses them to check if the supplied data is valid, and finally stores the corresponding error messages by calling the "getFormattedError()" method defined by the objects in question. Naturally, you'll understand the implementation of this method better when I show you the definition of each validation class, but keep in mind that this is a work in progress, so for the moment keep your attention focused on how the helper class does its thing.
Even though at this point the helper class looks pretty skeletal, it's clear to see that it can use a specific strategy, that is one or multiple validator objects, to check incoming data. Now, are you starting to see how useful the Strategy pattern can be when building flexible applications? I guess you do!
However, in its current state the helper still isn't capable of retrieving and removing the error messages stored during the entire validation process. Fortunately, this can be solved by adding a couple of additional methods to it. Their definitions will be shown in the next section.
Now, to see how these extra methods will be defined, click on the link below and keep reading.
{mospagebreak title=Finish defining the form helper class}
As I said in previous segment, the final touch that I plan to give to the sample form helper class defined before is to provide it with the ability to retrieve and delete the array of errors that might have been stored during the entire validation process. These tasks will be performed by two brand new methods called "getErrors()" and "clear()," and their respective definitions have been included in the following code fragment:
class FormHelper
protected $_validators = array();
protected $_errors = array();
// add a validator
public function addValidator(AbstractValidator $validator)
$this->_validators[] = $validator;
return $this;
// get all the validators
public function getValidators()
return !empty($this->_validators) ? $this->_validators : null;
// validate inputted data
public function validate()
$validators = $this->getValidators();
if (null !== $validators)
foreach ($validators as $validator)
if (!$validator->validate())
$this->_errors[] = $validator->getFormattedError();
return empty($this->_errors) ? true : false;
// get validation errors as an array
public function getErrors()
return $this->_errors;
// get validation errors as a string
public function getErrorString()
$errors = $this->getErrors();
return !empty($errors) ? implode(", $errors) : ";
// clear state of the form helper
public function clear()
$this->_validators = array();
$this->_errors = array();
Mission accomplished. Now, the form helper class includes the convenient methods mentioned before, along with one more called "getErrorString()." As its name suggests, this method can be used for fetching all the stored errors in the form of a string.
With the form helper already set, the next step required to implement the Strategy pattern is to define the different validation classes that will be injected into the helper via its "addValidator()" method. The first of these classes will be discussed in the upcoming part of the series; it will be responsible for validating integers, or expressed in more technical terms, will implement an integer validation strategy.
Final thoughts
That's all for now. In this first part of the series, I provided you with a quick introduction to validating incoming data via the Strategy design pattern. Since my goal here is to develop a modular application that permits you to check input data using different strategies represented by multiple validator objects, in the following article I'm going to start creating the originating classes of those objects, which will come in handy for validating typical data types, including integers and float numbers, email addresses and URLs as well.
Now that you know the topics that will be covered in the next tutorial, you don't have any excuses to miss it!

Thanks Randy for more fun!
Calling all Genea-Musings Fans:
It's Saturday Night again -
time for some more Genealogy Fun!!
Here is your assignment if you choose to play along (cue the Mission Impossible music, please!):
1) What year was one of your great-grandfathers born? Divide this number by 80 and round the number off to a whole number. This is your "roulette number."
2) Use your pedigree charts or your family tree genealogy software program to find the person with that number in your ancestral name list (some people call it an "ahnentafel" - your software will create this - use the "Ahnentafel List" option, or similar). Who is that person, and what are his/her vital information?
3) Tell us three facts about that person in your ancestral name list with the "roulette number."
4) Write about it in a blog post on your own blog, in a Facebook status or a Google Stream post, or as a comment on this blog post.
5) NOTE: If you do not have a person's name for your "roulette number" then "spin" the wheel again - pick a great-grandmother, a grandfather, a parent, a favorite aunt or cousin, yourself, or even your children! Or pick an ancestor!
My Great-grandfather Johannes Adolf Waldemar Hansen was born 4 Oct 1852. Dividing 1852 by 80 yields 23. The person with the ahnentafel number of 23 is Elisabetha Kronenberger.
Three facts about Elisabetha Kronenberger are:
1 She was born in Germany in 1832 and emigrated to Milwaukee, WI.
2 Elisabetha's parents were Heinrich Kronenberger (1800-1871) and Margaretha Mary Bott (1802-1886)
3 Elisabetha married Philip Schmitz (1834-1906) and had four children with him. Their children were Philip b 1856, Eva b 1858, Peter b 1866, Elizabeth b 1869 and Georg b 1872.
Bonus fact 4 - Elisabetha Kronenburg is my great-great-grandmother and her granddaughter married the son of Joannes Adolf Waldemar Hansen!

Giulio Caccini
1545 - 1618
Giulio Caccini short biography
An important Italian composer, singer, teacher, instrumentalist and literary writer, Giulio Caccini represents late Renaissance and early Baroque periods. Caccini is regarded as a founder of the opera genre. Caccini made an enormous contribution towards creation of the new Baroque style. Caccini developed the monody—solo vocal line, accompanied by one or 2 instruments. Caccini's Le nuove musiche was a very important collection of madrigals and songs for solo voice with the accompaniment of basso continuo. This work also praises the new style invented by Caccini and rejects the works of many conservative composers of this period.

Beaufort County Council members tapped acting Chairman Paul Sommerville to stay on for a full two-year term after a swearing-in ceremony Wednesday that formally inducted Bluffton-area representative Cynthia Bensch.
Councilman Brian Flewelling floated Sommerville's nomination, which passed with the raised hands of every member except Sommerville, who abstained from the vote.
"Throughout this time, through these difficult times, Mr. Sommerville has demonstrated his integrity, judgment, leadership and management skills," Flewelling said. "He will keep us on task and focused on our shared goal of better and more efficient government for Beaufort County."
A Beaufort native, Sommerville first took the oath of office in 2007 and was elected vice chairman in 2009 under former Chairman Weston Newton, who resigned in November to serve in the statehouse after 10 years at the helm. Sommerville has stood in for Newton on an interim basis.
Sommerville is a graduate of Duke University with a background in labor relations, working as a management consultant. His district encompasses northeast Beaufort, Lady's Island and the outer portions of St. Helena.
He's previously served as chairman of council's Natural Resources Committee as well as a member of the Community Services and Finance committees.
As chairman he'll make appointments to council committees and outside boards while serving as chief spokesman and interacting with state-level bodies. He'll also run council meetings, allowing all points of view to be heard among his "10 new bosses" while attempting to steer members toward a consensus, Sommerville said.
"My job is not to tell people what is the right solution," he said. "I can tell them about my recommendation, but my job is to make sure they're heard."
Other council members said they supported the choice because Sommerville will do just that.
"I think this sets up a good team that will take all sides into consideration for decisions," said Councilman Rick Caporale of Hilton Head Island.
For vice chairman, Councilman Stu Rodman won the support of every council member in a vote from which he abstained. Rodman has represented southern Hilton Head Island since 2007. Since that time he's headed the Finance Committee, a post he previously held in the Beaufort County School Board.
Rodman said he'll likely stay on as Finance Committee chairman, though the decision is Sommerville's.
"It feels good," he said. "It's another opportunity to serve the people of Beaufort County."
Bluffton-area representative Cynthia Bensch took the oath of office along with re-elected council members after a contentious campaign that dragged past Election Day as questions arose about her residency and her opponent, Dan Duryea, launched a challenge. The board of elections sided with Bensch 5-0, and she said Wednesday that she's glad to be moving forward.
"There's a lot of difficult decisions that this Council is going to make, and I look forward to the honor of being a part of doing what's best for the citizens as Council steers us through an economic time perhaps like nothing we've ever experienced," she said.

Give Your Children the Joy of Tech
A recent a survey by The Intelligence Group revealed an interesting insight about the youth of America: two-thirds of children age 7 to 13 covet gadgets over all else. That's some 46 million kids who want tech, not toys. (And—surprise!—likely topping their wish lists are Apple devices, according to Nielsen stats.)
That's right, play time is all about connectivity and computing for America's progeny, which some call "Generation Z"—the cohort born after 2000 who've never even seen a phone with a cord or played music that wasn't digital. The study even revealed 25 percent of kids want a say in product development of the gadgets they play with.
That's not to say we're looking at a generation of great computing minds necessarily, just a generation of great tech consumers. So we got to thinking, what well-built and inexpensive but extremely useful electronics could we find to stimulate young minds and coax our budding geeks into the digital age?
This list represents some of the best products you can buy today that will galvanize girls and boys to dive into the worlds of computing and tech. Tablets designed for little children lead them to want powerful laptops later. Fun digital cameras can train an army of future photographers. Learning PCs like Raspberry Pi will hopefully inspire bambinos to build their own tech. And don't forget to mix in some fun to hold kids' attention—in these cases it's in the form of robots and iPhone-powered laser tag guns.
We've included all that and more in this haul of gadgets designed to stimulate your burgeoning technophile's brain. Be sure to let us know what gets your own child psyched about computing and check out 11 Tech Gadgets for Babies if he or she is too tiny for this tech.
