After a New Years Eve party and all the drinking and champagne, the following morning can be a little rough. Even if it was a quiet, stay at home night, you should at least bring in the new year with a drink and a toast. For both reasons, the post-party and New Year's day toast, champagne or sparkling wine is the way to go. The leftover champagne can be used to make a Mimosa or a Bellini. Both are an excellent way to start a new year.[wp_ad_camp_3]
The Mimosa is a classic morning drink made with sparkling wine or champagne. Those leftover bottles from New Year's Eve can be used for breakfast or brunch cocktails. It's okay to drink on the morning of New Year's day, it is a celebration of a new beginning and any new start should be toasted.
Many people make a Mimosa will just orange juice and sparkling wine, however, this is originally called Buck's Fizz created by Mr. McGarry at Buck's Club in London, England in 1920. This is a great drink, but by adding a little Cointreau or triple sec, your drink will taste that much better. Why skimp on the first day of the year?
New Years Cocktails
1½ oz Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice
½ oz Cointreau or Triple Sec
Top up with Champagne or Sparkling Wine
Add orange juice and Cointreau to a champagne flute and stir to mix. Fill glass with chilled champagne or sparkling wine.
The Bellini is a drink similar to a Mimosa but made with white peach puree. This drink was created by Giuseppe Cipriani at Harry's Bar, Venice, in 1934. The drink was named after an artist from the 15th century (Giovanni Bellini). The Journal of Mixology has a great article by Lowell Edmunds about the history of the Bellini.
To make a Bellini is relatively simple. You need Prosecco or any dry sparkling wine and peaches. If you don't have white peaches, which can be hard to find in some places, you can use a regular peach to make this drink. To make the puree, simply remove the skin and pit from the peach, slice it into quarters and put it in a blender. Add a teaspoon or two of sugar, per peach, and the juice from a lemon, which helps prevent discolouration, otherwise your peaches will tun brown. Follow the recipe below and you will have a great start to the new year!
Classic Bellini
1 Part White Peach Puree
2 Parts Prosecco Sparkling Wine
Place peach puree into a champagne flute and top up with Prosecco.
Modern Bellini
2 oz Peach Puree
½ oz Peach Schnapps
¼ oz Lemon Juice
Top up with sparkling wine.
Stir the first three ingredients in a shaker with ice to chill. Strain into a champagne flute and top up with sparkling wine.[wp_ad_camp_1]
If neither of these cocktails aren't to your liking, you can always stick with two classic brunch cocktails, the Caesar or the Ramos Gin Fizz. I hope every one has a great new year.

Listen To Indians 2013 Draft Pick Clint Frazier Sing A Taylor Swift Song
Major League Baseball began its 2013 first-year player draft on Thursday night, as teams selected the amateur players whom fans will soon be calling overpriced hacks in the years to come. The circle of life, amirite?
Among the notable picks in the first round was the Cleveland Indians selection of Clint Frazier, a outfielder from Loganville (Ga.) H.S. with the fifth-overall pick. In addition to being one of the top prep players in the U.S., Frazier fancies himself a little pop music. Listen to the video above to hear Frazier sing Taylor Swift's 'We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.'
Old timers must cringe at this sort of thing, and not just because Frazier is off-key. You'd never hear Indians' legends like Albert Belle, Joe Carter or Rocky Colavito singing Taylor Swift (we know she wasn't born yet then; work with us). Let's hope Frazier hits fastballs better than he does high notes.

Welcome to LOVE Electronics!!!
Love Electronics Service Center was established in January 1982. The first branch was located in SM Shoemart Cubao with an approximate area of thirty (30) square meters with a total manpower of four employees, three of whom were electronic technicians. The business went through a turbulent period in 1988. New management system and strategic procedures were implemented which paved the way for a second branch in October 1991. A third branch was opened in 1992 in Ever Gotesco Complex in Commonwealth, Quezon City. The demand to fulfill the needs of customers in Marikina City led the company's expansion program to open two branches in this area in the years 1993 & 1994. Seven more branches were opened in a period of six years.

I got these two interesting remarks from Upper Egypt which I got from dear trust friends.
Friend #1 was a road trip in Upper Egypt from two weeks ago , from Cairo to Marsa Alam. He asked people where he stopped in the governorates about what they think about the country , the revolution and the Muslim brotherhood as well whether they said yes or no to the referendum.
Amazingly this is the summary of what he got from answers : They do not support the revolution nor the Muslim brotherhood or Morsi , in fact they hate the MB but they said "Yes" in the referendum for the sake of stability and "Life goes on"
Friend #2 is a dear journalist and friend from Upper Egypt , his family is well connected and he got tons of contacts there from big clans , families and former MPs. He told me last week that in last year's elections "and expected this year" Islamist parties , mainly Salafist were offering the big and famous members of the clans an opportunity to run for parliaments in electoral lists "and they are not Salafist" for specific amount of money like in the days of NDP !!!!
It is worth to mention that Sufi beliefs has been dominating Upper Egypt for centuries.
You know Egypt will have a true revolution if Upper Egypt joins this revolution.There are groups of revolutionary youths in the Upper Egypt governorates but they are not enough. It is worth to mention that the highest rates of poverty and illiteracy in Egypt are in Upper Egypt. I believe that the South in general is our key for new real renaissance.

You know her. Her spirit is the first thing people notice. Her mind always had a mind of its own. Her heart, though it has sometimes been hurt, bears a strong resemblance to a daffodil: it always flowers again.
We know her, too. She's the sister who follows her heart, the mother who lives such a beautiful example, the friend who's a constant source of inspiration. She's the coworker who brightens everything around her, and the neighbor who always knows when to stop by with a surprise. She's vibrant and spirited; she's brilliant and strong. And when we started thinking about it, we realized there are so many women like her that we set to work on a book that would celebrate and affirm these women and the wonderful things they add to the everyday.
Writer M.H. Clark and designer Heidi Rodriguez created I Am Her with their own favorite women in mind—mothers, sisters, best friends. They wanted the book to feel like a collection of ideas and beautiful things—a scrapbook of poetry, quotations, and images to prompt contemplation, creativity, and growth. It's a book to read, a book to write in, a book to ponder, and a book to share.
We're so excited about this book that we're giving away copies to five lucky winners who tell us who she is, and why she matters so much. Is she traveling the world? Is she making big changes in her life? Is she a bit of a dreamer, a dancer, a truth-teller? Nominate her here on our blog, or on our Facebook page. Just make sure to tell us about her by November 1, 2011 at 11:59 pm PST. Five lucky winners will receive two copies of I Am Her—one to give away to the person they nominate, and one to keep!

The aim of the publication "Vested interests in addiction research and policy. Why do we not see the corporate interests of the alcohol industry as clearly as we see those of the tobacco industry?" by Sally Casswell is to compare the current status of global alcohol corporations with tobacco in terms of their role in global governance and to document the process by which this difference has been achieved and the consequences for alcohol control policy.

text: I have posted the details of my issue to the SpamAssassin User Group: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/spamassassin/users/176514 In short, email messages are coming through with very low X-Spam-Score header values. I dumped a few sample emails and fed them to "spamassassin" on the command line and the scores were much, much higher; they seemed "correct". Folks on the SA User Group suggested that I check whether network tests are being run when SA is called via AMaViS. The problem is that I don't know how to call AMaViS directly, e.g., from the command line, in a way that simulates how the message will be processed in a real situation. I did check my AMAViS configuration, and on the surface, network tests appear to be enabled: Code: # grep -ir sa_local_tests_only /etc/amavis /etc/amavis/conf.d/20-debian_defaults:$sa_local_tests_only = 0; # only tests which do not require internet access? Does ISPConfig somehow disable network tests by some other means? I did have a look at http://www.ijs.si/software/amavisd/#faq-spam and walk through the items in the section entitled SpamAssassin returns different score or null score or triggers different set of SA rules when called from amavisd-new, as compared to the command-line utility spamassassin on the same message. What is wrong? In my tests, I am calling "spamassassin" from the "amavis" user account, amavis is not running in a chrooted environment, and nothing else that is mentioned stands-out. My Bayes database looks fine, and I don't think it's a factor here. I realize that ISPConfig allows for SPAM policies to be applied at the domain and/or mailbox level, so, ideally, I'd like to be able to "simulate" the process by which email messages for a specific domain/mailbox will be scored when fed to SA via AMaViS. Thanks in advance!

Material Details
- Wood: maple
- Finish: non-toxic lacquer
- Material Description: Maple adds timeless warmth and lightness to your room. Even after maple is harvested and made into furniture, it continues to be a living, breathing material that responds to its environment - it expands and contracts with changes in humidity and also changes color over time as it's exposed to air, sunlight and wear. New maple ranges in color from cream to gold and will beautifully deepen in gold tones over time.
- Wood: maple
- Finish: non-toxic lacquer
- Secondary Material: low-emission MDF
- Color: white
- Finish: non-toxic lacquer
- Material Description: Medium density fiberboard (MDF) is an engineered wood product made from wood fibers adhered using heat and pressure. The result is a stable panel that does not expand and contract with humidity like solid wood, making MDF an excellent core under veneers, or on their own once painted or powder-coated. Our MDF is California Air and Resources Board Phase II (CARB-2) compliant, which sets the lowest threshold in the world for formaldehyde emissions in engineered wood products.
- Secondary Material: low-emission MDF
- Color: white
- Finish: non-toxic lacquer
- Colors may vary depending on your monitor and printer. For color accuracy, request a swatch.

A relative newcomer to the hamlet was crowned at the fourth annual Mr. Amagansett pageant, held on Saturday night at Stephen Talkhouse.
Matt Schmitt, competing under the name Matt from the Meeting House, dashed out from that restaurant's kitchen, just across Main Street, and onto the Talkhouse stage at the last minute to best the competition as $5,000 was raised for the Donald T. Sharkey Memorial Community Fund.
"Everyone knows what this is about," Peter Honerkamp, a contestant and an owner of the Talkhouse, told the crowd as the pageant got underway. "We lost our dear friend Don Sharkey. A couple of his friends came up with an idea to start a fund to help people in the community. We're supporting that fund tonight, and no one would be happier to see the kind of event we do here than Don, who, like most men in the audience, was expert at women making fun of them in bars."
The fund, in honor of East Hampton Town's former chief building inspector, who died in 2009, supports community members in need and efforts for which Mr. Sharkey volunteered his time, such as the Wounded Warrior Project.
Mr. Honerkamp then introduced a short film by Nick Kraus, the club's booking manager and winner of the third pageant, "which was a disgrace, in my opinion," said Mr. Honerkamp. "He's not a contestant this year, but he's even more egocentric than me, so he made a video anyway."
"It's been a great year: I've been dwelling on beating Peter the entire year, and I know my video will be better than his," said Mr. Kraus. True to his word, his video presentation was superior to Mr. Honerkamp's, which betrayed a vast storehouse of anxiety and phobia and was mostly unfit for description.
Dominick Stanzione, a town councilman and member of the Amagansett Fire Department, followed "Computer Shop Lee," who led the audience in a sing-along of the alphabet song. "They've refused to let me do my act tonight, which is a shame, because it was an incredible act," Mr. Stanzione lamented. "I understand that Peter had something to do with killing it. The last four years, I have claimed that the judges have been paid off." Next year, the councilman promised, "the gloves come off, and I get to do my act without any interruption or interference from the people who have fixed this gig for four years in a row."
Curtis O'Brien, a bartender at Sotto Sopra, detailed his family's deep roots in the community, pointing out that his grandmother was Miss Long Island 1946. "Sixty-seven years later, her proud progeny stands before you," he said. "Along with the beauty-pageant genes, there's also the fact that I coach the local youth basketball team. If that's not giving back, I don't know what is."
"Peter Mullet," bearing a striking resemblance to Councilman Peter Van Scoyoc, sang a song about Amagansett. "When I can't stand it, I go to Gansett," he crooned. "Down to Indian Wells, watch the ocean swells, then I forget it. Oh Amagansett, keep your beaches free, for you and for me."
No sooner had the Amagansett Village People, featuring Joe Bloecker, a town trustee, completed its performance of "Amagansett Girls" — to the tune of the Beach Boys' "California Girls" — than Mr. Schmitt made his dramatic entrance.
Mr. Schmitt, too, adapted a popular song, Billy Joel's "Piano Man," performing solo, a plaintive vocal with harmonica accompaniment. "It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday, and the bartenders shake their heads No," he sang. " 'Cause they know it ain't me that they wanted to see, on the stage at this ridiculous show." The crowd went wild, though by that point a correlation between its enthusiasm and the volume of beverages consumed was impossible to ignore.
The final contestant, Boo Bonack and the Plague, continued the theme, performing "the Don Sharkey version of a Western classic," Cole Porter and Robert Fletcher's "Don't Fence Me In." "Just let me wander over yonder," Mr. Bonack, a k a Gordon Ryan, an attorney, sang. "Is your pool sorta over your border? Well, tough luck, pardner, because here is your stop-work order." The audience reaction was overwhelming, but the act would be named runner-up by the judges, Tina Piette, Britton Bistrian, Debbie DiSunno, Erica Yardley, and Mr. Kraus.
With all contestants assembled on the stage, the upstart winner was announced. "I've only been in Amagansett for two years," said a jubilant Mr. Schmitt, "but I'm going to take it over. This is my town."
The pageant is one of many fund-raisers Mr. Honerkamp has hosted since he acquired the storied watering hole in 1987. Beneficiaries have included fire departments, scholars, underprivileged children, and residents facing medical emergencies. "It's not uniform, it's not perfect, but it helps people in need," he said. Mr. Sharkey, he said, "was a jovial, beloved character in town. Everyone knew him."
On Sunday Mr. Honerkamp was still fuming about the pageant's outcome. "I thought the entire process last night was criminally corrupt," he told The Star. "Prior to the contest, I paid off every one of the judges, and all of them betrayed me. One thing a good judge does: When he's bought, he stays bought. So they were dishonest to the extreme, and all my bribery went to naught. And they gave it to a guy with tattoos."

Watch These Birds Feeding Dogs and Cats — Daily Distraction
[onescreen item="5161675"]
It's nice to see different species doing each other favors.
Now who knows what these birds are getting in return for their generosity. Perhaps we can assume an I-promise-I-won't-eat-you-Tweety from the cats, but it's less clear with the dogs, who aren't exactly lifelong enemies of the avian set. On second thought, we suppose that last part is a bit questionable. Just ask this guy.
The Daily Distraction is your Internet break from reality. Whether you're eating lunch at your desk or avoiding high school exes on Facebook, you might just laugh, say "aaahhh" or not believe what you just watched.


text: Ecosystem or Feudal System? Posted on April 23, 2014 by Adam Burke Game of Thrones recently kicked off its fourth season. And as a devoted fan, I cannot help but see the similarities between the battle for control of Westeros, the Iron Throne and the capital city, King's Landing and the current gamesmanship developing in the IT Channel for control of the end-user experience, the IT infrastructure backbone, and the datacenter.Much like the Channel, Westeros the fantasy realm of the HBO hit show, Game of Thrones, is made up of different families and kingdoms. For those who remember their Western Civilization courses, it is basically a feudal system under the mercurial rule of a corruptible monarchy, bordered on the north by snow zombies and hordes of non-allied "wildlings" and to the south east by dragons and a very angry ex-pat, who is raising an army to kill everyone back home.

Then one night P.J. was standing beside her bed and he painted her face green. Honey Bunny Funnybunny was angry. Their dad was angry too, and his mother was upset. They told him to go to his room. After that he treated Honey Bunny like she was not there. He didn't play any more tricks. Honey Bunny was happy for a while. Then she was sad because P.J. didn't play tricks on her anymore. She was thinking that P.J. didn't love her anymore. If you want to find out what happens next, you will have to read the book.
My favorite part of this book is when Honey Bunny thinks that P.J. doesn't love her any more because he didn't play any tricks on her. He really does love her, and her mom told her he still does love her. This reminds me of my older brother who is 15, he plays tricks on me sometimes and is mean to me and he scares me too. I know that he loves me and I love him. I think this book is funny because P.J. paints Honey Bunny's face green.
I recommend this book for all kids under 12 years old because it is funny and easy to read.

U.S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission
Supervisor Harassed Several Females, Including Teens, Federal Agency Charges
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – Sonic Drive-In of Los Lunas, Ltd., and B&B Consultants, Inc., doing business as Sonic Drive-In in Los Lunas, N.M., violated federal law by subjecting a class of female employees (including some teenagers) to sexual harassment, retaliating against the women for complaining about it and forcing many of them to resign, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) charged in a lawsuit it filed on September 29, 2009.
The EEOC alleged that a supervisor employed by Sonic subjected a class of women to sexual harassment. The women were victims of pervasive sexual comments and innuendo and unwelcome touching of bodies, which created a hostile work environment for them, the EEOC said. The agency also charged that some women suffered retaliation with respect to work hours and in the terms, conditions, or privileges of their employment because they opposed the supervisor's unwelcome conduct. Finally, the complaint charged that the harassment, retaliation, and/or the employer's failure to remedy the situation caused several women to resign.
"Sexual harassment is always unacceptable, but when some of the victims are vulnerable teenagers, it is especially egregious," said EEOC Acting Chairman Stuart J. Ishimaru. "The EEOC is doing what it can to protect the right of these young workers to be free from this kind of outrageous treatment. That's why this lawsuit is important."
Such alleged conduct violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 which prohibits employment discrimination based on sex, including sexual harassment and retaliation against individuals who file internal complaints, file charges of discrimination, or otherwise oppose discriminatory employment practices and/or participate in proceedings under Title VII. The EEOC filed suit in U.S. District Court for the District of New Mexico (EEOC v. Sonic Drive-In of Los Lunas, Ltd., and B&B Consultants, Inc., d/b/a Sonic Drive-In, Civil Action No. 1:09-cv-00953-WJ/ACT) after first attempting to reach a voluntary settlement.
The lawsuit asks the court to order Sonic Drive-In of Los Lunas to provide the class of affected women with appropriate relief, including back wages; compensatory and punitive damages; and to grant a permanent injunction enjoining the company from engaging in any gender-discriminatory practice. The EEOC also asks the court to order the company to institute and carry out policies and practices which eradicate and prevent sexual harassment in the workplace.
Regional Attorney Mary Jo O'Neill of the EEOC's Phoenix District Office, which has jurisdiction over Arizona, Colorado, Wyoming, New Mexico and Utah, added, "We continue to see a significant number of sexual harassment cases throughout our district. We are particularly concerned when employers fail to address harassment by managers and fail to protect women, some of whom are teenagers, from harassment in the workplace. The EEOC will prosecute such cases vigorously."
"Our investigation revealed that a managerial supervisor was permitted to harass these women in the workplace and Sonic did not act promptly to provide corrective relief." said EEOC Phoenix Acting District Director Rayford Irvin. "Employers have an important responsibility to protect their employees from harassment and retaliation in the workplace."
The EEOC enforces federal laws prohibiting employment discrimination. Further information about the EEOC is available on its web site at www.eeoc.gov.

The Albion College Art Collection includes 2,500 fine prints and over 500 art objects from around the world. The fine print collection dates from the 15th century and includes work by Rembrandt, Durer, Hogarth, Cezanne, Degas, Picasso, Grant Wood, Rouault, Hiroshige, Quick-to-See-Smith, Dine, Hockney, and Rauschenberg. The art and artifact collection is strong in Arts and Crafts glass and pottery, North American Indian, and arts from across Asia.
These collections are used extensively by faculty in and outside of the Art and Art History Department. Native American Art and The History of Prints are two courses that focus on pieces from our collection and allow students first-hand access to pieces. Student research and writing have formed the basis of several publications; the most recent is Images of Women (PDF, 3.7 MB); others include Philip C. Curtis Sound and Silence, and H. C. Westermann: Tradition and Resistance. Many pieces from the collection have been the subject of student honors theses or individual research projects.
Art from the collection has comprised exhibitions at Albion and beyond, including "African Art: Ritual, Power, Life, Sound," "Silence: the Art of Philip Curtis, Restoration, Contemporary Prints," and the 2012 exhibition "Native American Art." Prints are regularly exhibited in the Martha Dickinson Gallery, often highlighting areas of special strengths and reinforcing existing courses . The exhibitions "The Political in Print," "Images of Women," "The Language of Landscape," "American Prints from 1900-1950," and "Japanese Prints from the Edo Period" have supported courses including "Art as Political Action," "Women in Art," "American Art," and "The History of Prints."

I am couple and family therapist in West Orange and Millburn NJ and had known Debra for many years. Clients I referred to her reported feeling her compassion and acceptance when they met her .Clients who worked with Debra in a couple therapy setting, reported that her work was deep and brought transformation and growth in the relationship. It is hard to find an insightful, gifted therapist, who you feel trust the moment you meet them and connects with people of such diverse backgrounds. She is my inspiration!

A compassionate and insightful therapist. Debra is a colleague whose work I hold in deep respect. In my consultations with her, she has shown herself to be sensitive, astute and at all times professional. She is soft-spoken, well-informed, and non-judgmental. I admire her careful consideration of each matter. Her experience and perspective have enhanced my own work. I wholeheartedly recommend Debra for therapy, marriage counseling, and for professional supervision.

Build C# and .NET Mobile Apps with Xamarin Development for Android – Part I
By: Shalom Keynan, Pat Tormey MVPIntroduction I have been requested from a longtime friend and head of New Hampshire .Net Users Group (Seacoast) Pat Tormey to take Xamarin software Mono for Android for a test drive. I was tasked to take a fresh approach and objective overview from a C# .Net developer who has no experience in phone or android development. We wanted to create a presentation "Hello New-Hampshire .Net User Group," as a demo application that utilizes users existing experience in C# and visual studio and develop Android applications. Our objectives were to create a sample application that could be use as a building block and could be a good starting point. We wanted to know how much of our C# knowledge would be portable to Android development.Using the code There are many examples on the web but we decided to follow with the Getting Started from Xamarin online documentation; it included 5 easy steps that got me started. We found their examples very concise and helpful. Xamarin has examples to develop in MonoDevelop and Visual Studio 2010. Our recommendations are to follow there tutorials since they are a great starting point. We also browsed for video tutorials to improve my android development knowledge, we recommend on Pluralsight they are an excellent training website, if you don't have a membership we strongly suggest to use them, at either case you can take advantage of their 10 days trial, it 's worth every minute. Android Project OverviewAndroid applications start with an Activity which will typically have an "axml Layout" for display the Activity->Layout set are the basic unit of work constituting the display and functions supporting that display, which are clearly defined as the Model View Controller (MVC) pattern. Values such as strings are cleanly abstracted out to a Values folder under Resources folder as a Value Attribute pair.All Resources are abstracted out to a resource folder that maintains Layouts, images , values and icons through the Resource Designer,which maps the friendly name to an internal unique Id. Neither the Xamarin MonoDevelop IDE nor the Visual Studio IDE support WYSIWYG development.Both the MonDevelop and the Visual Studio IDE support deploying to an emulator configured to match your expected Android target machine.Getting StartedAfter completing the lessons we created a demo application ShalomNHDN (Shalom is the Hebrew word for greeting), it includes basic stuff and few things to watch out as you go through the code and application. After working your way through the getting started demo, we decided in this application to built a sample application with the the following:
First you will notice that launching the application starts the emulator, deploy/update the package and launch the application. If you look at Android dashboard you will see the application name and application icon. These information configured by the line on the splash activity
[Activity(Label = "Shalom NHDN", MainLauncher = true
,Theme = "@style/Theme.SplashNHDN", NoHistory = true
, Icon = "@drawable/MyIcon")]
Label is the text under the icon and the icon located in Resources\Drawable\directory. The default icon is 72x72 pixels and is icon.png. You can use either PNG or GIF files and you can find more icons at http://www.findicons.com website. Note: 64x64 size icons are good fit (animated gifs don't seem to work). The NHDN application launches with the SplashActivity ( MainLauncher = true ) and uses the default theme (Theme= "@style/Theme.SplashNHDN"). The theme located in the resource\values directory and points to an image nhdnsplash.png file(480x480 pixels).
<style name="Theme.SplashNHDN" parent="android:Theme">
<item name="android:windowBackground">@drawable/nhdnsplash</item>
We use the following to start the next activity
protected override void OnCreate(Bundle bundle)
// Start our real activity
The first Activity (Screen) layout defined in two ways. You can use the axml layout or build the screen layout dynamically.
//Uses aXml template and display items
// Set our view from the "main" layout resource
// Get our button from the layout resource,
// and attach an event to it
Button button = FindViewById<Button>(Resource.Id.MyButton);
TextView aLabel2 = FindViewById<TextView> (Resource.Id.helloLabel);
button.Click += delegate
button.Text = string.Format("{0} user clicks!", count++);
aLabel2.Text = "Hello NHDN! " + count.ToString();
The layout on the screen will appear the same way as your XAML file.
//Create the user interface in code
var layout = new LinearLayout(this);
layout.Orientation = Orientation.Vertical;
var aLabel = new TextView(this);
//aLabel.Text = "Hello, NHDN for Android";
// Set label as Fix text or from resource file
var aButton = new Button(this);
////Lambda way to delegate event
//aButton.Click += (sender, e) =>
// aLabel.Text = "Hello from the button";
aButton.Click += delegate(object sender, EventArgs e)
aLabel.Text = string.Format("You clicked me {0} times "+
DateTime.Now.ToString() , count++);
var aButton1 = new Button(this);
//aButton.Text = "Say Hello";
aButton1.Text="Start Second Activity";
aButton1.Click += delegate(object sender, EventArgs e)
aButton1.Text = string.Format("clicked {0} "
+ DateTime.Now.ToString(), count++);
// StartActivity(typeof(SecondActivity));
// start activity as intent and pass data between activities
var second = new Intent(this, typeof(SecondActivity));
second.PutExtra("ActivityData", "Data from FirstActivity: " + aLabel.Text);
To pass data between screens use Intent and place the following codeNote the use explicit use of INTENT , which prepares the Activity for more information. You can start an Activity with an implicit INTENT if you are not passing data.
var second = new Intent(this, typeof(SecondActivity));
second.PutExtra("ActivityData", "Data from FirstActivity: " + aLabel.Text);
Note how INTENT is queried for data passed by the calling Activity.
//Get data from FirstActivity
var label = FindViewById<TextView> (Resource.Id.screen2Label);
label.Text = Intent.GetStringExtra("ActivityData") ?? "Data not available";
Transferring data between activities
Loading simple list with XML, preferred loading XML data from resource file, ultimately you will want to consider getting data from a web service or from a local resource file. At this scenario we explore the method of loading data from a local resource file.The simple list class implements ListActivity, thus ListView refers to the listview widget in the resource layout. We added a toast message on selected item click event.
[Activity(Label = "Simple List of Books - Activity")]
public class SimpleListActivity : ListActivity
protected override void OnCreate(Bundle bundle)
// get list of books from xml file in your resource
string[] books = Resources.GetStringArray(Resource.Array.books_array);
ListAdapter = new ArrayAdapter<string>(this, Resource.Layout.list_item, books);
ListView.TextFilterEnabled = true;
// add a listener to Item click
ListView.ItemClick += delegate(object sender, ItemEventArgs args)
// When clicked, show a toast with the TextView text
Toast.MakeText(Application," Selected Item: "+ ((TextView) args.View).Text,ToastLength.Short).Show();
Setting the screen layout through the AXML file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
android:background="#0066CC" >
<ListView android:id="@android:id/list"
Simple List Activity
Working with Android is very strait forward, you can maximize your C# knowledge and with Xamarin toolkit for Visual Studio you are not far from having your first application up and running.

Why I Chose MIT: I can't pinpoint the precise reason that I chose to go to MIT, but if I had to state it as succinctly as possible, I would say that I chose to go to MIT because it provided the perfect environment to foster my academic, athletic and social growth during the four years of my undergraduate education. I saw MIT as an opportunity to explore a new, exciting city and interact with bright young minds while studying at one of the world's most prestigious institutions. Not only did I look forward to the fact that MIT would be intellectually challenging, but another major factor influencing my decision was the athletic opportunities that MIT had to offer. After visiting the campus and meeting a few of the coaches and players, it became clear that the volleyball program at MIT would provide a very natural transition for me to compete at the collegiate level. The combination of these compelling conditions made MIT the obvious choice, and my time here has only made me more certain of my decision.

Clarkson University A Cappella Singing Group Competes In Boston
A Clarkson University a cappella singing group performed in a regional competition just months after forming on campus.
The Ultravioletones traveled to Boston in January to compete in the International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella regional quarterfinals. It was a quick turnaround for the 10-member Ultravioletones, which had formed in the previous semester.
The singers submitted an audition video on November 1 and found out in mid-November that they were headed to Boston.
"When we submitted it, we really weren't sure," said Daniel LaCombe '13, a mechanical engineering major from DeWitt, N.Y. "When we found out we were all really excited and really happy."
Lacombe had wanted to enter such a competition since he was a freshman and decided to make his dream a reality in his final year at Clarkson. A few other Ultravioletones members had been inspired by the 2012 movie "Pitch Perfect," which involved a college a cappella group's quest to win a singing competition, LaCombe said.
The group only had two weeks to rehearse when they returned to campus for the spring semester before traveling to the competition.
"It was pretty crazy. We had to accelerate everything," LaCombe said. "It was rehearsal every night for a couple of weeks."
The Ultravioletones performed "Below My Feet" by Mumford and Sons, "Figure 8" by Ellie Goulding, and "Wannabe/I Want You Back" by Spice Girls/NSYNC in Boston. While the group did not advance, LaCombe said the experience will hopefully pave the way for future competitions.
"It was definitely a cool experience being the first group from Clarkson to go to the competition," LaCombe said.
The other Ultravioletones members are Ryan Ericson'13, an electrical engineering major from Lansboro, Mass.; Kenneth Mark '14, a mechanical engineering major from Dansville, N.Y.; Joseph Camilo '13, an electrical engineering major from Honeoye Falls, N.Y.; Sarah Maryhugh '15, a biology major from Watertown N.Y.; Aisha Wood '13, a biology major from Argyle, N.Y.; Allison Reid '14, an engineering and management major from Millbrook, N.Y.; Aaliyah Gibbons '16, a social sciences major from Lawrenceville, N.J.; Sarah Miele '16, a civil engineering major from Queensbury, N.Y.; and Michael Lee '16, an aeronautical and mechanical engineering major from Oneonta, N.Y.
Clarkson University launches leaders into the global economy. One in five alumni already leads as a CEO, VP or equivalent senior executive of a company. Located just outside the Adirondack Park in Potsdam, N.Y., Clarkson is a nationally recognized research university for undergraduates with select graduate programs in signature areas of academic excellence directed toward the world's pressing issues. Through 50 rigorous programs of study in engineering, business, arts, sciences and health sciences, the entire learning-living community spans boundaries across disciplines, nations and cultures to build powers of observation, challenge the status quo, and connect discovery and engineering innovation with enterprise.

Examples are optimization of body posture and movement sequences, dynamic, goal-oriented stamina training, recovery of the physiological toe and foot functions, or reduction of the risk for injuries and falls.
A new generation of exercise mats will be the highlight at IHRSA 2013. By using new substances, AIREX® was able to once again significantly improve the mats' durability. Rising hygiene standards have been met by using a new, highly effective antibacterial substance. It even controls the aggressive cMRSA strain of bacteria which is found in hospitals, fitness facilities and day care centers. The existing color palette has been complemented with the three new, highly modern colors charcoal, terra and platinum.

Socorro Springs Brewing To Sponsor Annual Golf Tournament, Jan. 11, 2006
by George Zamora
SOCORRO, N.M., Jan. 11, 2006 – A major professional golf tournament that has been held in June on the New Mexico Tech Golf Course for more than 45 years has found a new corporate sponsor—Socorro Springs Brewing Company.
The local brew pub and restaurant will now be the major sponsor of its namesake Socorro Springs Open Golf Tournament, an annual weeklong professional and amateur golfing event that takes the place of the former Conrad Hilton Open.
New Mexico Tech Head Golf Pro Russell Moore recently announced the closing of a three-year, $45,000 sponsorship agreement between the university and Socorro Springs owners that he says gives the golf tournament even more of a local identity.
"We're really excited about having signed the new sponsorship agreement with Socorro Springs," Moore says, "particularly since the owners are both New Mexico Tech alumni. . . . It's worked out to be such a complementary fit between a local business and New Mexico Tech Golf Course."
The new Socorro Springs Open, which is fully sanctioned by the Sun Country PGA and the Sun Country Golf Association, is scheduled to get underway the week of June 4-10, 2006.
The stroke-play golf tournament will include a senior golf professionals three-day event, a one-day pro-am, and a professional and amateur three-day competition.
The world's longest and toughest hole in golf, the infamous "Elfego Baca Shoot," which was a mainstay of the now defunct Hilton Open, will remain associated with the Socorro Springs Open as part of the annual event.
In addition to Socorro Springs Brewing Company, New Mexico Tech and the City of Socorro will continue to be major sponsors of the golf tournament.
