Hey guys.
Find attached the question
Now Please find the code I have done so far.At a party there are guests and a cake that will be cut into equal slices to give each guest a slice. Code an application (Q3) that, given the number of guests and the radius of the cake in cms, will output the length of each slices arc given that it must be an exact whole number of cms. If calculations show that the length of each slices arc will be less than a cm, output zero for the length to indicate the cake cannot be cut.
In addition output the cakes circumference (total arc length), the total length of the arc used by all slices and the length of the arc that remains unused.
e.g. (see p 118-9 of the prescribed text to display only 2 decimal digits)
Enter the radius of the cake (in cms): 10.5
Enter number of guests? 5
total arc (circumference = 65.97
slice arc = 13.00
used arc = 65.00
left over arc = 0.97
import java.util.Scanner; import java.text.DecimalFormat; public class AS1Q3 { public static void main(String[] args) { Scanner scan = new Scanner (System.in); double radiusNum, cirCumference, sliceArc, usedArc, leftoverArc; int numGuests; System.out.print("Enter the radius of the cake (in cms): "); radiusNum = scan.nextDouble(); System.out.print("Enter the number of guests?: "); numGuests = scan.nextInt(); cirCumference = 2 * Math.PI * radiusNum; //System.out.println(cirCumference); sliceArc = cirCumference / numGuests; leftoverArc = (cirCumference) - (sliceArc * numGuests); DecimalFormat fmt = new DecimalFormat ("0.##"); System.out.println ("\ntotal arc = "+fmt.format(cirCumference)+"\nslice arc = "+fmt.format(sliceArc)); System.out.println (fmt.format(leftoverArc)); } }
I seem to be having an issue getting the outputs to display properly as well as the maths behind the code to generate the values. well I think ive done my maths right :0
Basically my outputs are meant to show the following as above but I still get numbers being added after the decimal place when they need to be replaced with 0
Any advice is appreciated, I am not after the solution just need to be shown an example or guided in the right path.

When Stair Public Library director Colleen Leddy read about a new program emphasizing science in small rural libraries, she wanted Morenci to be involved.
She sent an e-mail to the directors of the program and expressed her desire to join in. That was still early in the planning stages, but she was told that Morenci would be kept in mind.
Earlier this month she learned that just 20 libraries in 15 states were chosen to participate in a pilot project and Stair was one of them.
A $2,500 grant from the National Science Foundation will pay for training and implementation of the program. After completion of the pilot program, the experiences of those 20 libraries will be examined before the program is expanded to 100 additional rural libraries.
"Pushing the Limits: Making Sense of Science" is described as a four-part reading, viewing and discussion series for adults.
The program will explore the ways that humans have always strived to push the boundaries of their world.
"We want to be stronger, smarter and more aware," said Linda Crowe of the Califa library consortium, one of the organizers of the program. "Using science we bring those dreams to life."
Sometimes great new advances in science and technology make the difference, Crowe said, and other times it's the science of the everyday.
"In either case, we are all finding ways to push the limits every day," she said.
The program will explore these ideas by blending a book club model using popular novels with a science café discussion group.
The science café is patterned after a NOVA ScienceNOW project that brings science to unexpected places with the intent of reaching people from a variety of backgrounds. A short video clip is followed by a discussion led by a scientist. Adrian College professor Adam Coughlin has agreed to serve as Stair's program leader.
Coughlin's role won't be to lecture to participants, but rather to create a discussion among people who might not typically discuss science issues.
"The overarching theme is one of real people, real stories and real science," Crowe said.
Leddy participated in a focus group last year in Texas that gave organizers the opportunity to speak with librarians about the program and learn what would and wouldn't work.
When it came time to apply for participation in the pilot project, Leddy submitted an application that was well received.
"Your plan for Pushing the Limits...looks terrific!" she was told. The selection committee was impressed with her experience in public programming and pleased with her goal of increasing library usage.
"Your three letters of support show potential for good community involvement and for getting the word out to people who are not currently library patrons. Your scientist shows sincere interest in the project, and his research interests as well as current scientific specialty looks very promising."
In addition to funding from the National Science Foundation, the planning team consists of library professionals, scientists and filmmakers from Dartmouth College, the Association for Rural and Small Libraries, the Califa Group, Dawson Media Group and Oregon State University.
Crowe points out there are more public libraries in the U.S. than there are McDonald's restaurants, and nearly 80 percent of them are in communities with populations of 25,000 or less.
"All communities need and deserve good programs to engage and bring people together," she said.
Leddy looks forward to the discussions ahead.
"Some of our most interesting and enriching programs at the library have been people simply talking and discussing issues," she said.
The Living Library, Prime Time, Talk@Two, guest authors and book discussions have each led to good interaction.
"The STEM topics—science, technology, engineering and math—involve everyday issues that people can relate to and have an opinion about," Leddy said.
The next step for her is a training session in Portland, Ore., this fall. The program will get underway in 2013.

BOSTON, Mass. – Led by Olivia Murphy's (Canton, Mass.) team-high 18 points the Colonials of Western Connecticut State University handed women's basketball their fourth straight loss, third in conference play, as they defeated the Beacons by the final of 71-62 Saturday afternoon in the Clark Athletic Center Gymnasium in a Little East Conference match-up.
Saturday's loss drops the Beacons record to 10-7 overall, 2-5 in the conference, while the Colonials, who are currently tied for second in the LEC, improved to 12-5 on the year, 5-2 in the conference.
Murphy's team-leading performance was the result of 6-of-14 shooting from the floor and a 5-for-6 showing at the line. She was also one of four Colonials, three of which were starters to finish in double-figures.
The freshman forward led the afternoon with her 23 points and nine rebounds. From the floor the four-time LEC Rookie of the Week was 11-for-20 and 1-for-5 at the line. On the glass three of her nine boards were on the offensive side of the floor. Kirsten Morrison (North Reading, Mass.) closed out the afternoon with 16 points and matched the game-high nine rebounds. The sophomore center was 8-for-13 and also finished with three offensive boards.
Despite the loss, UMass actually led the contest from floor shooting 44.3% (27-for-61) on the day, while the Colonials finished shooting 41.9% (26-for-62). Both teams were dangerous from behind the arc, but it was WCSU who won the battle of the long ball as they closed out the day 10-for-25. The Beacons were 5-for-15 overall, with three of those baskets coming from sophomore Lauren Perra (Taunton, Mass.).
The Colonials wasted little time taking control of the match-up as they jumped out to a double-figure lead in the first six minutes of play (17-6). They would then keep a solid lead over the Beacons throughout the first half, and would eventually close out the first 20 minutes with an eight point lead (33-25).
After the break, the Colonials continued to hit their shots and used another quick burst to completely take control of the game. Despite taking their largest lead of the afternoon, UMass dug deep and began to chip away at WCSU's lead, with a huge push from Perra's and Meghan Agger's (Saco, Maine) 3-pointers. Perra closed out the final with nine points, while Agger dropped in six. Murphy led the final 20 minutes of play with 13 points and helped to lead the Beacons in the paint, along with Morrison and Brittany Moore (Billerica, Mass.). Unfortunately there was not enough time to complete the Beacons late run, which cut the Colonial's lead down to nine.
Women's Basketball returns to action on Tuesday when they host UMass Dartmouth at 5:30 p.m.

Zoom G1 Guitar FX advice
Hi I've just acquired a Zoom G1Guitar FX box and I like the preset patches. However most are made up of a range of Effects. Is there a simple way to take a "Clean" sound patch and edit it so that it has just one type of effect, e.g gain or Flange or reverb, rather than having a mix of effects in each patch?

Breadcrumbs: Leave a Physical Trace Behind
I love lilacs.They are a beautiful celebration of spring and the smell takes me right back to my childhood. My childhood home in Connecticut had easily twenty-five lilac bushes scattered in clumps around the property. Each spring I would clip the fragrant flowers and bring them into house, typically placing the jugs in the kitchen and my bedroom.
As I've gotten older I've intentionally planted lilacs around the property of the homes my husband and I have purchased. In this life it allows me to continue to enjoy my favorite flower. Just as importantly, it's a silent, indirect reminder of my existence. A secret code that could only be deciphered by my family members. No, there is no sign that these lilacs were planted by Marian Pierre-Louis. All the same, they will be a living, physical reminder of my existence.
Genealogists spend a lot of time researching their ancestors. Some even reserve time to write their own memoirs. More often, it's like the cobbler's children who have no shoes. Genealogists focus so much on the past that some forget to leave behind their own story.
I'm intrigued with the concept of leaving a breadcrumb trail for my future descendants. Whether that means in archival documents or actual physical clues that become part of the environment.
Breadcrumbs is a new sub-series of the Roots & Rambles blog. Favorite plants and trees like lilacs are just one way of leaving a trace of yourself behind. I hope you'll follow along on the journey and consider leaving breadcrumbs for your descendants to find as we discover the possibilities together.

LOVE this idea.ReplyDelete
One of my good friends was dividing her daylilies about a year after her husband has died; I took about 12 fronds and planted them in my garden, and grew them up to a nice size, then divided them again, and passed some to my son and my daughter to plant in their yards in memory of John, who'd been not only our friend, but their English teacher. I don't know the variety, but for us, these are always the "Sullivan Lilies."ReplyDelete
Fraser - yes that's exactly what I'm talking about! I've done the same thing with family day lillies.ReplyDelete
Beautiful concept - and beautiful lilacs. They don't grow well in the spots I've lived since I left New England, but they do remind me of home.ReplyDelete
For me it's hydrangeas and daylilies. If I have to have them in pots in the house if we're living in the Arctic Circle, so be it. I have to have them. I have daylilies from my mother's garden, my grandmother-in-laws, and even a fabulous Cape Cod garden where we used to stay in the summers.
It's also the houses themselves. I've never lived in one where I haven't moved a door or a wall.

I have a special white lilac which is a "descendant" of the huge one which was in the garden of the house that I grew up in. When my parents decided to move from there, after 35 years, each (grown up, by then) child received a white lilac from the tree. If/when I move, I will make sure I have rooted cutting to take with me. It's in full bloom just now :-) JoReplyDelete
I love lilacs as well. They remind me of my childhood home as we had a massive bush in the backyard. Thanks for reminding me!ReplyDelete
How Interesting.I had just had a conversation with my son as to where I had obtained different trees and plants around the farm so he would have the history since he will inherit.ReplyDelete
Great idea. I have made it a goal not to move from the first house we bought, so the physical trace has to be with this house. For me, it's peonies (well, they came with the place), irises (an obsession), and columbines.ReplyDelete
For me it's Black Eyed Susans. It isn't home without them. By why not leave a sign that you planted them? I hadn't thought of this before...I do keep a gardening journal. Wouldn't it be lovely to leave a copy behind for the next owner of the house or to encourage the gardeners in the neighborhood to create a collection of such journals for safekeeping at the local library or historical society?ReplyDelete
I tucked a note behind the trim when we were finishing our bedroom. Does that count? I said something like - "Greetings to the family who lives here in the future from the family who lived here in 1995." and I listed all our names. I hope someone finds it a century or two from now.ReplyDelete
I love your posting idea "Breadcrumbs: Leave a physical trace behind." I am very much looking forward to more posts on this subject. I have often thought of what I can leave behind that continues to live on. I too love Lilac's and my favorite is Hydrangea's, I am leaving lots of those behind! Thank you, Marian, excellent post.ReplyDelete
Did you know that lilacs were popular in colonial times? I can walk through our town forest and see lilacs growing near the cellar holes that date from the 1700s, and know that some housewife planted them in her dooryard. There are lilacs growing at the the Wentworth mansion in Portsmouth, NH that date from before 1750. People used to sneak slips from those plants for their own gardens. Purple lilacs are now the NH state flower.ReplyDelete

At my home church on Manitoulin Island, Ontario, Canada, the parishioners have lovingly planted an entire hedge of lilacs, each plant started from one on the homestead of early pioneers. I love it :-)ReplyDelete

Thanks to Nortina for hosting Moral Monday's. This weeks moral is: "Judge Not, Lest You Be Judged."
"What's wrong with her?" Kara said, watching her former BFF Darla open her locker.
"Yeah I know. She's doesn't care about her appearance anymore. " Madeline added.
"We're all best friends since sixth-grade. Darla used to dress well and wear makeup. She didn't used to ignore us on her phone, or when we tried to visit." Kara said miffed.
Darla looked up: "I can hear everything you guys are saying. My family died and you didn't help me. You talked behind my back and spread rumors. They're never coming back. Don't you understand? You deserted me too."

Boston Mayor Thomas M. Menino will not allow the body of Boston Marathon bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev to be buried in the city, his spokeswoman said this afternoon.
"It would be disrespectful to our residents to accommodate this individual," said Dot Joyce, Menino's press secretary.
Instead, the mayor is recommending that Tsarnaev's family return the body to his native Russia, in accordance with his mother's wishes, Joyce said. Burying the body in Boston, she added, would run counter to municipal protocol because Tsarnaev never lived in the city.
"We're not involved in this person's life at all," Joyce said.
The mayor, she noted, has not been asked to provide a burial plot for Tsarnaev, 26, a Cambridge resident who is suspected with his brother of detonating two bombs near the Marathon finish line April 15 that killed three people and injured more than 260.
Tsarnaev's body has been held at a Worcester funeral home since Friday, while a funeral director searches for a cemetery that will accept the body. A Worcester police spokesman said today that officials are optimistic that within the next few days, a place will be found.
Police Chief Gary Gemme met today with Tsarnaev's uncle and Peter Stefan, the owner of the funeral home where the body has lain since Friday, said Sergeant Kerry Hazelhurst, a police spokesman.
"They're quite confident that there will be a conclusion to settle this matter within the next couple of days," he said. "The chief's function today was to get the parties involved to meet, discuss, and try to find a solution to the problem."
"I think all options are on the table right now" for a place to bury Tsarnaev, Hazelhurst said.
He said he didn't think that the funeral home owner was limiting his search for a burial spot to Massachusetts. Several cemeteries have already rejected the request to bury Tsarnaev's remains.
"I don't think he's going to specifically target Massachusetts. I think he's just trying to reach out to anybody anywhere," Hazelhurst said.
Tsarnaev's body was released last Thursday by the state medical examiner. It was first taken to a North Attleborough funeral home, then to the Graham Putnam & Mahoney Funeral Parlors in Worcester. It has been 18 days since Tsarnaev died after a confrontation with police in Watertown. Protesters have demonstrated at the two funeral homes.
The state medical examiner found the cause of Tamerlan Tsarnaev's death to be gunshot wounds and blunt trauma to his head and torso. Police have said they were subduing Tsarnaev after a shoot-out on April 19 when his younger brother, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, ran him over in a desperate bid for freedom.
The younger brother was captured later the same day. He is facing federal charges of using a weapon of mass destruction and malicious destruction of property resulting in death.
The two brothers were living in the Inman Square neighborhood of Cambridge. The younger brother was a student at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth.
Governor Deval Patrick on Monday urged the Tsarnaev family to resolve the emotional question of where to bury Tamerlan Tsarnaev.
Stefan said Monday that Tsarnaev's mother wants his body returned to Russia. Tsarnaev's uncle, on the other hand, has insisted that he be buried in Cambridge, which has balked at that request.
Hazelhurst said his department had incurred $27,000 to $30,000 in overtime costs by last night to provide security to the Worcester funeral home, where protesters have gathered and traffic has clogged.
"For the most part, overall, it's been pretty incident-free," he said.

It's been three weeks since an Oak Harbor city councilmember started a national controversy by trying to kick out a wounded Army veteran who was legally carrying a weapon during a council meeting.
Councilmember Rick Almberg then walked out.
The council was met by 160 people Tuesday night, many who were packing heat.
There were handguns in holsters and rifles slung over shoulders and an unknown number of people concealing their weapons as the Oak Harbor City Council met. Many attended the meeting to show support for veteran Lucas Yonkman who Councilmember Almberg tried to have kicked out of City Hall last month, including Joe Hawkins who openly mocked him. "Mr. Almberg I just want you to know that I have a concealed ham sandwich right here I don't want you to get up and walk away," he chuckled.
Most attended the meeting to oppose the city's ban on guns in parks and the marina. The Second Amendment Foundation had threatened to sue if the ordinance wasn't overturned.
Sandy Peterson spoke out against the ordinance. "If the city council members are intimidated by people exercising their Second Amendment rights to bear arms, perhaps they need to examine what it is about that that makes them uncomfortable," she said.
William Frail had an M-1 rifle on his shoulder as he testified. "Sir, my mother was Jew," he said. "My family went to the chambers. I will not go into the night quietly while these two ask me to board the train."
But not everyone spoke in favor of overturning the ban. Shane Hoffmire doesn't believe having guns in parks is a good idea. "While I support the Second Amendment and citizen rights to bear arms, I strongly believe guns do not belong in public spaces," he said.
Pam Fick also spoke out in support of the ban. "There are those here tonight who will argue that more guns in more hands and more places makes us safer," she said. "More guns in more hands and more places didn't make people safer. It just made people more dead."
Lucas Yonkman, the man at the center of this gun debate in Oak Harbor, also addressed the council.
"I come to you tonight with a heavy heart," Yonkman said. "I see a beautiful country divided and conflicted. I see a constitution being eroded, and the rights so many have fought and died for totally lost. I see men and woman who are elected leaders pushing personal agendas."
Yonkman believes the answer to mass shootings and community violence will be found in treating those with mental illness, instead of taking guns away.
The city council eventually voted to overturn the ban, which the interim city attorney had told the members was unconstitutional. The council did not call for the resignation of fellow member Almberg, which a few people had called for.
After the meeting, he said he hopes the city can move past this and get onto more important business.

June 27 is National HIV Testing Day, promoting testing as an important strategy to prevent and control transmission of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the virus that causes AIDS.
The Food and Drug Administration is joining other federal agencies in promoting National HIV Testing Day, Saturday, June 27. The purpose of National HIV Testing Day is to increase awareness of the importance of HIV testing to help improve the health of those at risk for getting HIV and to prevent future infections. But don't let the message last just one day.
Knowing your HIV status is an important step toward preventing the spread of HIV. When you take the test, you can take control.
Knowing that you are not infected helps to make better decisions about risks and behaviors.
Knowing HIV status at an early stage of infection allows people who have the virus to receive appropriate monitoring, treatment, and supportive health care that can improve and extend their lives.
Early diagnosis of HIV infection can delay progression to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and reduce transmission of HIV to others. But the CDC estimates that in 2006, an estimated 232,700 people, some 21% of those living with HIV infection in the United States, were not aware of their HIV infection status.*
An HIV test is quick and simple. Two valuable and easy to use resources have been developed to promote HIV testing in conjunction with National HIV Testing Day and make finding a testing site easier:
On the web, the CDC can help you find an HIV testing site (including free testing sites) by zip code, near where you work or live, at www.HIVtest.org.
Text Messaging to Promote HIV Testing. Mobile phone users can send a text message with their zip code to "KNOWIT" (566948). Within seconds, they will receive a text message identifying an HIV testing site near them. This mobile phone service connects users with same CDC testing database found at www.HIVtest.org.
Each of us can do our part to help slow the spread of HIV/AIDS, protect our own health, and the health of those we love. We hope you will join with us in observing National HIV Testing Day.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) has launched a new HIV/AIDS awareness campaign. Although HIV infection is preventable, every 9½ minutes, someone in the U.S. is infected with the virus. The Act Against AIDS campaign is designed to contribute to the goal of reducing HIV incidence in the United States.
For more information about HIV/AIDS, or about National HIV Testing Day, go to www.AIDS.gov.

Measurbation with Real-world Photos! ;-D
The more I used my K-m, the more I appreciate its Image Quality. As a measurbator, I do always view the photos I took in 100% full size to see if its IQ performance aspects are up to my expectations. Honestly speaking, I rarely shot test charts, brick walls or newspapers, all my measurbations are done with real-world photos! ;-D
Well, this time I post some of my recent examples, the 100% crops are also included (with all EXIF data retained). Lens used is my recently mechanically exposure calibrated FA 24-90 AL:-
I must mention that the exposure accuracy is good, colour accuracy is really good and the AF accuracy is not bad either. Of course, the resolution is just very high, which meets most of my needs anyway.
Enjoy! Happy Measurbating, Until the End of the World!! ;-|>

On top of much improved television ratings in the United States for the World Cup in South Africa and a professional league invigorated this summer by international star power, add another symbol of soccer's continuing emergence in this country: surging attendance at college games.
Eye-catching figures are popping up across the country for men's games. Cal Poly has drawn crowds of more than 8,000 twice this season. Last month Duke visited Maryland and played in front of 7,260 spectators. And Ohio State set a university record when it drew 7,255 fans for its game against Akron in September.
The magazine Soccer America reported last week that 35 men's teams in Division I were drawing more than 1,000 fans a game this year, eight more teams than in 2009. Last season only two teams had average attendances above 2,500; eight teams are drawing at least that many this season. And this year each of the top 20 colleges in average attendance is attracting more fans per game than last season.
"On one hand, there is something big going on here, this slow growth of soccer in the United States," said John Francis, a professor in San Diego State's sports business master's degree program who has researched the growth of soccer in the United States. "At the same time, there are interesting things and smaller stories emerging within this larger trend."
Leading the swell is the University of California, Santa Barbara. Its athletic department has marketed the college's campus and hometown as a so-called soccer heaven. The team will most likely shatter its record for average attendance in a single regular season, which it set last year with 4,335 fans a game. This year it is averaging 6,619.Continue reading the main story
On Sept. 24, Santa Barbara drew a crowd of 15,896 to Harder Stadium, its home field, for a game against U.C.L.A. It was the largest regular-season college soccer crowd since 1980 and the largest soccer crowd over all for an on-campus stadium. Mark Massari, the Santa Barbara athletic director, called the atmosphere electric and compared it to an English Premier League game, with thousands of fans raising scarves high above their heads.
Massari said Santa Barbara and other colleges were beginning to reap the benefits this season of a number of factors, including aggressive marketing, outreach to local youth programs and the entrenchment of teams into their communities.
Attendance at Santa Barbara games in particular is helped because the conference the university plays in does not sponsor football in the fall.
"On top of that, you throw in a passionate student body, a community that loves soccer and a team that plays an exciting brand of soccer," Massari said. "It's sort of a perfect storm happening."
Some college officials said their numbers should be taken with a grain of salt because jumps in attendance this year could, in certain cases, be attributed to scheduling quirks and one-off situations.
Ohio State, for instance, is averaging 1,492 a game, which at first glance appears to be a huge improvement from its average attendance of 522 in 2009. But if the Buckeyes' record-setting home match against Akron — which Akron fans attended by the busload — is removed from the equation the average this year drops to 532.
The situation at South Carolina, another program with a drastic boost in average attendance, is somewhat different. It is averaging 2,051 fans this year after drawing just 726 a game last season, but as with Ohio State, one game has skewed the number. The team plays Clemson at home every other year, and this season's game drew 6,157 fans.
But disregarding the Clemson match, the Gamecocks are averaging 1,464 fans a game — still twice as many as last season.
Eric Hyman, the South Carolina athletic director, said a possible reason for the rising numbers there and around the country was that a generation of young people who have had more exposure to the game — playing it and watching it on television — appears to be coming of age.
"They understand it better than the older generations, who can't relate to soccer the way they can," Hyman said of college students.
Another factor in the attendance boost, Francis said, could be the popularity of the World Cup, which drew large American television audiences this summer, and the appealing play there by the United States team. Francis was careful not to overstate its influence, but he said that excitement about the tournament could have primed casual fans to the pleasures of the game.
"You might not run looking for it, but you're more open to it," he said. "If something halfway decent comes along or an interesting story comes along, you're more likely to dive into it than before."Continue reading the main story

Is yours one of the 30 per cent of households in the UK today using an indoor aerial or antenna? If so, it's most likely for a second or even third TV. But for some people, it'll be the only way you receive a TV signal. Between 2006 and 2011, we tested a wide range of indoor antennas and aerials. If you want to compare more recent models, you can look at the same features that we tested to work out what will be best for you.
The indoor aerials we recommend should be widely available. Before you commit, though, ask if it's OK to return the aerial if it doesn't work in your home. Don't buy from anywhere that will not give you a full refund if you need to bring it back.
Note that an amplified aerial does not necessarily give a better performance. And don't be swayed by aerials that have two telescopic rods, as well as the TV aerial part: these are designed for FM radio - you won't need this as digital TV carries all the major national radio stations as well.

Pros and cons of indoor aerials
The indoor aerials we tested really did vary. All of them can receive digital TV if you have a strong enough signal - that is, you live near a transmitter and your TV room happens to face it with a clear path.
However, when it comes to medium and weak signals - which you are much more likely to have - some indoor aerials perform a lot better than others. It's also important to note that, unlike the snowy picture you sometimes used to get with old analogue signals, with digital you can go from a good picture to none at all very quickly.
One thing is clear. There's no guarantee that any of the indoor aerials we tested will enable you to receive digital TV in every room in your home. You may get some groups of stations but not others. Or some groups with the aerial in one position, and others by moving it a bit.
Whether or not you get a really good picture will depend on several things, such as where you live, where your windows are and where in the room you put the aerial. But it will also depend on your choice of aerial.
Also, many internal aerials had other problems - such as cables that were too short to put your aerial up high for better reception, or weak joints or loose screws. A few tended to topple over because they were top heavy or had heavy cables.
So check out our results before you go shopping: see our reviews of indoor aerials for test reports of each model and our recommendations for the best aerials.
Alternatives to indoor aerials
Rooftop aerials
You can't beat a good rooftop aerial for TV reception. Rooftop aerials are also less susceptible than indoor aerials to disruption from passing traffic - indoors and outdoors - though bad weather conditions can still cause a problem.
Any rooftop aerial, in good condition, is capable of receiving terrestrial digital TV service such as Freeview. To find out what's available in your area, use the Digital UK Coverage Checker
For rooftop and loft aerials, a local aerial installer should be able to advise but make sure you go for a licensed one. The Registered Digital Institute is the UK's official body for registering licensed digital aerial and TV systems installers - use their consumer website, getmedigital.com, to find a local licensed installer. Otherwise, try the CAI (Confederation of Aerial Industries).
Loft aerials
If you can't have an aerial on the roof, you might be able to fit a big enough roof aerial in your loft. You probably won't get as strong a signal as you would with a rooftop aerial, but it could be stronger than with an indoor one. Surrounding houses and trees might block it and obstacles like roof tiles and that big water tank will cut back the signal. The signal strength may also be more vulnerable to weather conditions, for instance.

Legal Maze's Murkiest Corners Worry Companies
SEC Payouts for Tips, Foreign-Bribery Law, Patent Suits Top List of Concerns
In-house lawyers at the nation's top companies got a wake-up call in August, when the Securities and Exchange Commission paid a whistleblower nearly $50,000 for information it said helped stop a multimillion-dollar fraud.
The award signaled to many general counsel that the SEC was likely to make aggressive use of a new program aimed at uncovering securities fraud and other corporate wrongdoing. The program, created by the Dodd-Frank financial regulatory overhaul, allows the SEC to pay bounties for tips, and is among the top...

Jan. 13, 2005
First-year head coach Damon Coupe arrived on the mission campus last summer, and in just one fall season, has transformed the attitude and expectations of the Bronco women's program to a higher level.
In his first meeting with the squad, Coupe had each team member independently write down goals for the coming season. Each list had one thing in common: get nationally ranked.
With that in mind, Coupe implemented a more offensive strategy to his players' games and started to help them believe in themselves, and in each other, that anything and everything is possible.
"This team is taking control of its destiny," he explained. "Our strength is founded on our belief in each other and the belief we have with ourselves. They put in a lot of hard work this fall, changing their attitude, work ethic and strategies on the court, and now have gained the knowledge they can go out and win, against any team."
Coupe said these efforts have not gone unnoticed, as other coaches have commented to him about the toughness the Broncos are displaying.
"That's a compliment and a tribute to their hard work and dedication to having a new coach and buying into the system and really absorbing everything I ask of them and putting it to work. We're going to continue turning heads this spring."
Santa Clara's heart and soul lies in its senior class of All-West Coast Conference players Janalle Kaloi and Catherine Cochrane. Kaloi has the opportunity to establish herself as one of the all-time bests in the Bronco program and Coupe said his coaching staff has spent the fall trying to prepare her to take the opportunity and seize the moment as it approaches this spring. She is currently sixth in all-time singles victories and seventh in combined doubles wins.
"She definitely possesses the game and the mentality for her success and show it this fall with her performances at the All-American and ITA Regional tournaments. She can compete with any of the top-level players in the country."
Cochrane has frequently been described as one of the hardest hitters in the collegiate game. Coupe said he is working with this four-year starter to control her power and develop her ability to dictate the points so that she can really start to dominate players on the court.
2005 team captain Jessie Strunk is a junior on the squad has shown tremendous improvement during fall play, said Coupe. Strunk advanced to the semifinals of the Saint Mary's Invitational this past fall and according to her new coach, has taken an offensive approach to her game and "has really begun to push top players."
The sophomore trio of Erika Barnes, Kimberly Daniel and Kelly Leathers made an immediate impact on the program as freshmen last year, and look to continue growing their games as the program grows as a whole as well.
Adding to the Broncos' depth are returners Casey Knutson and Kristen Ruso, both of whom saw limited action due to injuries this fall. Jessie's younger sister Chelsea Strunk is also joining the roster, along with fellow freshmen Myra Davoudi of San Jose and Flavia Miracle, from Bradenton, Fla.
"From what I've been told, Casey is an extreme competitor and has the fight and the grit to really compete with top-level players," Coupe described. "And Kristen possesses a lot of power which she is perfecting at how to harness. The newcomers made an immediate impact in the fall and we're looking forward to their competitive spirit in the spring."
The confidence and belief the Broncos are growing as a team will be displayed for the first time in 2005 with the start of the dual-match schedule on Jan. 16 against Cal State Fullerton. Coupe said he is looking for his players to give everything they have and "lay it all out on the court... for themselves and each other," and although would prefer a win in his coaching debut, would still find happiness with the team's competitive spirit, regardless of score.
Opportunities to become a nationally-recognized program will follow with the continuation of the team's schedule. Matches against ranked teams such as Cal Poly, Washington State, Pacific and Loyola Marymount, as well as a strong field at the UC Irvine tournament and the onset of league play, will open the door for the Broncos. Defeating such teams will allow SCU to establish itself as program to contend with.
"Our schedule is providing an opportunity to produce a really great record this season," Coupe said. "We looking to take full advantage of knocking off many ranked squads... not just compete, but win in these contests."
One of the main highlights on the home slate is Pacific-10 opponent Washington State. Ranked 65th nationally, and competing in one of the strongest tennis conferences in the country, the Cougars will provide a solid challenge for the Broncos to measure themselves against.
Fans can expect to watch a more offensive-minded Bronco program, with teammates who carry a stronger belief in their abilities on and off the court. Coupe said he saw the team come together during fall play and expects that bond to grow as a stronger unit as the spring season progresses.
"I told the team in the fall that this year is going to be one of their most memorable years," he shared. "They are laying the foundation for this program and taking it in the right direction. Sure, we're going to have ups and downs, but it's all going to be beneficial as we head toward our goal of becoming nationally ranked. We're going to be ready to play in January, but we'll be peaking come March and April and looking to make our mark in collegiate tennis. Our opponents will know we're playing to win big.
"This is not the same women's team that people have come to know in the past," Coupe concluded. "This is a special team that is going to do some great things this year."

City of Lincoln
Mayor's Office
2004 Media Releases
Lincoln one of nine U.S. cities conducting research project
Mayor Coleen J. Seng will kick off an effort to prevent cigarette litter at a news conference at 2 p.m. TODAY, Tuesday, June 22 at 120 North 14th Street. Lincoln is one of nine communities in the nation selected to participate in the Cigarette Litter Prevention Research Program. It is a project of Keep America Beautiful (KAB), a national, nonprofit public education and community improvement organization. About 20 specially designed cigarette butt receptacles have been installed in a two-block area of downtown, and public service messages are being displayed and aired in local media. About 3,000 pocket ashtrays will also be distributed in the area.
"Cigarette litter is a problem in many communities, including Lincoln," said Mayor Seng. "This project targets cigarette butts, packaging and lighting material, which are some of the most commonly littered items in our City. I am proud that Lincoln was chosen to participate in this research project and I am very encouraged that the businesses and property owners in downtown Lincoln are taking part. We all want downtown Lincoln to be attractive and clean."
Those involved in planning the project are Keep Lincoln & Lancaster County Beautiful, a program of the Lincoln-Lancaster County Health Department and a local KAB affiliate; the Downtown Lincoln Association; the Downtown Neighborhood Association; the City Urban Development Department; the Lincoln-Lancaster County Planning Department; the Lincoln City Council; Keep Nebraska Beautiful; and the Citizen Information Center.
The test campaign will be conducted through August 31 in downtown. A cigarette litter count was conducted prior to starting the study, and another count will be taken at the end of August to determine the project's effectiveness. The results of the research program will be released at KAB's national conference in December in Washington D.C.
The mission of Keep Lincoln & Lancaster County Beautiful is to improve waste handling practices and increase environmental awareness through education and participation, and to keep the community litter-free. It is partially funded by a grant from the Litter Reduction and Recycling Fund administered by the Nebraska Department of Environmental Quality. KAB, which has a network of more than 540 programs around the world, is in its 51st year. More information is available at www.kab.org.

The mattress should be placed against a solid wall and facing away from the door. If you want a floating bed, you should choose a bed head made of durable material to create a comfortable feeling. Relaxed rooms should at least be dark or have soft light. So you should find a switch that lets you control the lights when it's time to sleep. If you want to sleep well, your room may have other lighting. Creep Use opaque curtains to help cut off external light at the wrong time. Living Room smooth is calm. If you do not sleep well. Notice that in the side dining chair you have something to worry about it. Try to place things around. Tidy and clean. Because the side dining chair is busy. It can affect sleep. Having a closet or drawer that can keep things going will make you more calm. And most importantly, do not bring the device to work in a visible place, because you may worry about it until you can not sleep. Living Room Color Tone and Atmosphere A side dining chair with a blue tone Aqua may be the room that makes the eyes feel closed. But no matter which tone you choose to make room. Try to control one tone of tone, then choose two accessory color shades of a piece of excitement, it is enough to not include many colors together, because it will stir you all the time. Living Room not working in the room. sleep The side dining chair should be quiet, no noise, and the room temperature must be cool. Therefore, do not bring the equipment or other facilities. Enter into a side dining chair , such as a computer or a desk, because you may be worried about it until you can not sleep. But if anyone is caught in the sea before going to bed. Find a bedside table with drawers. To keep the laptop out of sight is not easy Living Room . Find the aroma that you like to put near. The smell is a way to sleep and also affect the relaxation of the body during sleep. Try to find the aroma of essential oils. Lavender in the room. It helps to feel relaxed and sleep more comfortable.
This side dining chair is simply the most perfect gift you can get for the one and only in your life. Perfect gift for the any lady. My husband bought this for me as a Christmas gift. Love the color and quality. Lays nicely and receive many compliments.
Living Room Care and cleaning of bedding Always keep changing. Keep changing bedding And care of the new bedding as well as bedding, pillow cases, quilts and so on. Many people may worry about the color of the bedding. Will it suit us? Or to supplement the Hwang or offline. But in essence, Feng Shui is more important than color. It is the care of the clean. Or if it is in a condition that is not available to replace the damage often. And always clean. What is the power. The new power. New opportunities or new good luck in life with. Colors in the way of Feng Shui is composed of all five elements. 1. Water element - blue tone blue color suitable for retirement age. The age is a matter of leisure. Adults 2.

To make money, we have good circulation. There is a good flow of money. We should have a bedside table on both sides of the bed. Choosing a bedside table should be a table with the edge of the table without a corner to avoid the power of feng shui to attack. Or a corner that hit us while sleeping on the sofa. Living Room lamp on the table should have Lamp on both sides of the mainstream of Feng Shui. The light in the side dining chair should be indirect light, it is In Direct Light should be avoided the fluorescent lights. The white light is very bright. It will balance or force in Feng Shui. But the lamp on the bed before bed, we may be open at the time of reading. When we sleep, we close. I like adjusting feng shui to a good balance. It is a good balance of health. Make a good balance in your finances. And fortune to us. The lamp should be chosen with the material of the crystals. Living Room wardrobe closet if the cabinet with a mirror, the cabinet should not be placed directly on the bed. Should be placed at another angle that does not match the bed. If it is a closet, the drapes will not be alright. Dressing table Should be located at the end of the bed, do not turn the mirror into the bed as well. It will make the power to reflect bad. Will result in fatigue.

Opening Files in Mac OS X Lion
Opening files on a modern Mac is pretty simple. You can open any icon in the Mac OS X Lion Finder, whether it's a file or a folder, in at least six ways.
Click the icon once to select it and then choose File→Open.
Click the icon twice in rapid succession.
If the icon doesn't open, you double-clicked too slowly.
Select the icon and then press either Command+O or Command+Down Arrow.
Right-click or Control-click it and then choose Open from the contextual menu.
If the icon is a document, drag it onto the application icon (or the Dock icon of an application) that can open that type of document.
If the icon is a document, right-click or Control-click it and then choose an application from the Open With submenu of the contextual menu.
You can also open any document icon from within a Mac OS X Lion application, of course. Here's how that works:
Just launch your favorite program, and choose File→Open (or press Command+O, which works in most Mac programs).
When you use a program's Open dialog, only files that the program knows how to open appear enabled (in black rather than light gray) in the file list. In effect, the program filters out the files it can't open, so you barely see them in the Open dialog. This method of selectively displaying certain items in Open dialogs is a feature of most applications.
In the dialog, simply navigate to (or click) the file you want to open
Click All My Files in the Sidebar or use Spotlight if you can't remember where the file resides.
Select your file, and click the Open button.
Some applications allow you to select multiple files in their Open dialogs by holding down either Shift (for contiguous selections) or Command (for noncontiguous selections). If you need to open several files, it's worth a try; the worst thing that could happen is that it won't work and you'll have to open the items one at a time.
Some programs, including Microsoft Word and Adobe Photoshop, have a Show or Format menu in their Open dialogs. This menu lets you specify the type(s) of files you want to see in the Open dialog. You can often open a file that appears dimmed by choosing All Documents from the Show or Format menu (in those applications with Open dialogs that offer such a menu).

Having got American readers to buy more than fourteen million copies, collectively, of Stieg Larsson's Millennium trilogy books—"The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" (2008, American edition), "The Girl Who Played with Fire" (2009), and "The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest" (2010)—the management at Knopf has decided that it would like them to buy some more. So the company has issued a boxed set: the three crime novels, plus a new book, "On Stieg Larsson," containing background materials on the late Swedish writer. If you have been in a coma, say, for the past two years, and have not read the Millennium trilogy, about a crusading journalist, Mikael Blomkvist, and a computer hacker, Lisbeth Salander, battling right-wing forces in Sweden, the set, at ninety-nine dollars, is not a bad bargain. But if you decided to pass on the novels your resolve should not be shaken by this offer. As for "On Stieg Larsson," don't worry. It is a small thing—eighty-five pages—and nothing in it solves the central mystery of the Millennium trilogy: why it is so popular.
Larsson, who was born in a village in the north of Sweden in 1954, was an ardent leftist all his life. In the nineteen-eighties, because of immigration, Sweden, like other European countries, saw a sharp increase in racism. Suddenly, there were neo-Nazis and Aryan leagues, and the people involved were no longer crazed souls operating mimeograph machines in basements but smooth characters, in suits, running for public office. In 1995, Larsson and some friends in Stockholm founded a quarterly magazine, Expo, with the declared mission of safeguarding "democracy and freedom of speech by . . . documenting extremist and racist groups in society." Expo was undisguisedly the model for Millennium, the journal that is Blomkvist's home base in the trilogy.
Larsson's anti-authoritarian writings won him and Expo many enemies. The printers and distributors of the magazine had their windows smashed. Larsson received death threats. He took precautions. He allowed no photographs. In restaurants, he and his companion, Eva Gabrielsson, sat so that he could watch one exit, she the other.
Despite all this, Larsson is said to have been a happy man, who lived the life he wanted. He smoked three packs a day, subsisted on hamburgers, and often worked around the clock. He consumed popular novels, especially crime fiction, by the cartload. And then, in 2001, in a move that no one has been able to explain satisfactorily—and about which, for a long time, he told almost no one—he began writing crime fiction. Later, he said that he did it for fun. Or he said that it was for money—that the books were going to be his "retirement fund." He wrote fast, easily, and late at night. By 2003, he had the trilogy's first volume, which, in English, is called "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo." This is a rather conventional detective novel, except that the villains are Nazis and neo-Nazis, and the crimes are unusually grisly: incestuous rape (homo and hetero), plus murders of the most appalling sort. One victim is gagged with a sanitary napkin and stoned to death. Another is tied up and placed with her face in a bed of dying embers.
Larsson submitted the manuscript to Piratförlag, a publishing house with a strong line of crime novels. The editors there never opened the package. (They did not read manuscripts from first-time authors.) Today, one almost pities them. The publisher that accepted the Millennium trilogy—Norstedts Förlag, the second firm Larsson contacted—has sold three and a half million copies of the books.
The editing went slowly, because Larsson was always overscheduled. "On Stieg Larsson" contains a series of e-mail exchanges between him and his Norstedts editor, Eva Gedin. In them we find Gedin asking Larsson politely, but with increasing emphasis, to make room in his schedule to meet with her and hear her editorial suggestions. He responds blithely that he will do so, eventually. One afternoon, seven months after the contract was signed, he went to work at Expo, found that the elevator was broken, climbed seven flights of stairs, had a heart attack, and died. He was fifty.
In part because Larsson was not alive when the books were published, the Millennium trilogy has been surrounded by a number of controversies, the juiciest being the question of who should be receiving the fortune the books have earned. The most deserving beneficiary, as many people saw it, was Eva Gabrielsson, who was not only Larsson's companion for three decades but who also, at various times, supported him, not to speak of putting up with the fact that he normally came home around midnight. The two of them never married, however. Larsson—and, later, Gabrielsson—said that this was a way of protecting her; she would not run his risks. Years earlier, Larsson had written a will leaving his entire estate to the Communist Workers' Party of his home town, but the will was not witnessed and therefore was not valid. When Swedes die intestate, everything is awarded to their kin—a strange law in a country where unregistered unions are almost the rule. In any case, Larsson's money has gone to the two surviving members of his immediate family, his father and his brother.
These two men were not unaware of the awkwardness of their position. They gave Gabrielsson Larsson's half of the apartment that she shared with him. They also proposed to pay her $2.7 million, by way of a settlement. She refused this offer, at which point the dealings between the two parties grew nasty. Gabrielsson told the press that Larsson had been alienated from his father and brother. They, in turn, suggested that Gabrielsson was psychologically disturbed. The story became even more exciting when the news got out that Gabrielsson had Larsson's laptop, which, according to several sources (including her), contained more than half of a fourth novel, plus notes for the remainder—in other words, enough material so that someone else could finish it and it could still be called a Stieg Larsson novel. (Some of Larsson's associates say that he had plans for ten novels, and had started the fifth as well as the fourth.) Does Gabrielsson really have the laptop? At one point, she told the press that she had given it to Expo. Elsewhere, she has said, "No comment." Reportedly, we will find out the answer when Gabrielsson's memoir is published, next year. Meanwhile, a lot of people think that she has been terribly wronged. If you call up www.supporteva.com, you can make a contribution to her upkeep.
Another question that has been raised about the trilogy is: Who wrote it? A co-worker of Larsson's at Expo, Kurdo Baksi, suggested in a recent memoir, "Stieg Larsson: Our Days in Stockholm," that Larsson did not have a talent for writing. Another colleague has come right out and said that someone else must have authored or at least heavily edited the books. The person most often pointed to is Gabrielsson, who is reputed to have good literary skills. (She is an architect and writer.) Asked about her contribution to the trilogy, Gabrielsson has been as elusive as she was about the laptop. In an interview with Swedish National Television, she denied having given any direct assistance. Then, repeatedly, she spoke of the books' author as "we."
If Gabrielsson didn't edit the trilogy, did anyone else—for example, its editors? The e-mails printed in "On Stieg Larsson" suggest that Eva Gedin, of Norstedts, was not often successful in getting Larsson to meet with her. Furthermore, they had only seven months together. When I asked Gedin whether, as a result, the books received little editing, she firmly denied this. With the second and third books, she said, she suggested some revisions, and Larsson indicated his approval. As for the first, "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo," she told me that it was thoroughly edited, and that big changes were made, before he died. She recalled, for example, that the manuscript had opened with an extensive description of a flower, which, as she put it, was "a little bit boring." She got Larsson to let her take that out. Still, Norstedts may have been reluctant to make extensive changes that the author had not survived to oversee.
As for the English edition, it was apparently not subject to any such scruples. The translation was done at top speed (because Norstedts needed to show it to a film company), and then it was heavily revised by its editor, Christopher MacLehose, of Quercus Press, in London. Gabrielsson registered bitter complaints about the changes. So did the translator, Steven Murray. He actually took his name off the novels; he is credited under a pseudonym, Reg Keeland. MacLehose stands by his work. "I did edit the translation, yes," he wrote to me, "but it isn't a particularly interesting fact or story and it has earned me enough abuse already from the translator and from the author's former partner. Perhaps [it is] sufficient to say that seven or eight houses in England turned it down in its original form"—Murray's English translation—"and seven or eight in America. In its edited form, as many Americans bid for it."
However much the book was revised, it should have been revised more. The opening may have been reworked, as Gedin says, but it still features an episode—somebody telling somebody else at length (twelve pages!) about a series of financial crimes peripheral to the main plot—that, by wide consensus, is staggeringly boring. (And, pace Gedin, it is preceded by a substantial description of a flower.) Elsewhere, there are blatant violations of logic and consistency. Loose ends dangle. There are vast dumps of unnecessary detail. When Lisbeth goes to IKEA, we get a list of every single thing she buys. ("Two Karlanda sofas with sand-colored upholstery, five Poäng armchairs, two round side tables of clear-lacquered birch, a Svansbo coffee table, and several Lack occasional tables," and that's just for the living room.) The jokes aren't funny. The dialogue could not be worse. The phrasing and the vocabulary are consistently banal. (Here is Lisbeth, about to be raped: "Shit, she thought when he ripped off her T-shirt. She realized with terrifying clarity that she was out of her depth.") I am basing these judgments on the English edition, but, if this text was the product of extensive editing, what must the unedited version have looked like? Maybe somebody will franchise this popular series—hire other writers to produce further volumes. This is not a bad idea. We're not looking at Tolstoy here. The loss of Larsson's style would not be a sacrifice.
The most crippling weakness of the trilogy, however, is its hero. Mikael Blomkvist is so anti-masculinist that, in a narrative where people are brandishing chainsaws, he can take no forceful action. That goes for his sex life, too, which features heavily in the plot. Mikael is irresistible to women, we are told, yet he never makes the first move. Not that Larsson's women have a problem with this. "Are you going to come quietly or do I have to handcuff you?" one says. Lisbeth is more direct. She just walks into his bedroom in the middle of the night and plops down on him. He apparently gives all his bedmates a good time, but one wonders whether he has a good time. A girlfriend says to him that he seems to get a fair amount of action. "Yes, unfortunately," he answers. Again and again, he tries to maneuver his relations with Lisbeth out of sex and into friendship. "Lisbeth, can you define the word friendship for me?" he asks. She is not sure how to answer. He tells her, avuncularly (he's almost twenty years older than she), that friendship is built on respect and trust. Ugh!
In 2009, three Swedish movies were made of the novels, with Niels Arden Oplev directing "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" (the best one) and Daniel Alfredson the final two. These films were huge hits, and they certainly bumped up the sales of the books. Like many mediocre novels, the trilogy is far better on the screen than on the page. The screenwriters, trying to bring their stories down to two hours, got rid of a lot of the clutter and scrubbed off the sugar coating that Larsson put on the relationship between Mikael and Lisbeth. Finally, the movies give us lovely things to see—fog-bound islands, dewy leaves. Sony is now producing an American movie trilogy, with Daniel Craig as Mikael. After a loud fuss in the press, the role of Lisbeth was given to Rooney Mara, who had a small part in "The Social Network." (She was the girlfriend who dumped Mark Zuckerberg in the opening scene.) She will have big boots to fill. Nothing in the three Swedish films is better than Noomi Rapace, the actress who plays Lisbeth. In most of the first movie, to show us how surly and unapproachable Lisbeth is, Rapace wears her punk hairdo so that it covers her left eye. In the third movie, we get to see both her eyes, but, because she is in the hospital, recovering from dire wounds, and then on trial (she's been framed by the villains), she barely speaks. Yet whether she has one eye or two eyes, she communicates something like a five-act tragedy.
It is clear what people like in these movies, but what accounts for the success of the novels, despite their almost comical faults? Larsson may have had a weakness for extraneous detail, but at the same time, paradoxically, he is a very good storyteller. (Mario Vargas Llosa, in an article on the trilogy, compared Larsson to Dumas père.) As for cheap thrills, there's dirt aplenty and considerable mayhem.
Early in the trilogy, we find out that when Lisbeth was a child her mother was regularly beaten senseless by her mate, Alexander Zalachenko, a Russian spy who had defected to Sweden, where a secret branch of the security police put him on the payroll, thinking that he could tell them useful secrets. Lisbeth told the police about Zalachenko's assaults on her mother, only to be put away for two years in a state psychiatric hospital. This is the main source of what, in the novel's present, is Lisbeth's utter distrust of any government institution, down to the local police. At the end of "The Girl Who Played with Fire," she has a showdown with Zalachenko. This is a brilliantly orchestrated scene, if you can stand it. Zalachenko shoots Lisbeth in the head. (She runs her fingers over her skull. She finds the hole, feels her wet brain.) Zalachenko and his sidekick, Ronald Niedermann, bury her hastily, failing to notice—they're in a dark wood—that she is still alive. Once they're gone, she digs herself out, returns to Zalachenko's hideout, and sinks an axe in his face.
Near the end of the last book, Niedermann holes up in a brickworks that Zalachenko once owned. When he arrives, he finds two Russian girls, a brunette and a blonde, who have been deposited there by sex traffickers. They are afraid to go outside, and are starving. Niedermann brings them some soup. Then he grabs the brunette and breaks her neck with a single twist. The other watches, and puts up no resistance when it is her turn. You don't forget such episodes—the truly innocent at the mercy of the truly evil—and they lead directly into the absolutist morals of Larsson's books, which may also be a powerful selling point. Lisbeth believes that people are responsible for what they do, no matter what was done to them, and plenty was done to her. The trilogy is, to some extent, a revenge story—a popular genre. (Think of "Death Wish" or "True Grit.") Lisbeth not only cleaves Zalachenko's skull; she beats up two large bikers simultaneously and, with a Taser, delivers fifty thousand volts to Niedermann's crotch. The woman warrior has become a beloved feature of the movies, from Nikita to Angelina Jolie's Lara Croft, and beyond. It is also, reportedly, a sexual fantasy popular with men—something else that may have helped to sell the books.
According to certain researchers, another sexual fantasy common among men is rape. Larsson's campaign against the abuse of power eventually became focussed on one victimized group: women. A friend of Larsson's tells the story that, at the age of fifteen, Larsson watched as several boys he knew gang-raped a girl. Later, ashamed, he telephoned the girl and asked her to forgive him. She refused. He is said never to have forgotten this episode. In these three violent novels, no species of assault is more highly featured than the rape of women by men. Furthermore, you can't go twelve pages without being almost screamed at on the subject of feminism. Larsson's original title for his trilogy was "Men Who Hate Women." (This remained the title of the first book in the Swedish edition. Gedin says that he absolutely insisted.) All the sections of the first book are prefaced with statistics on crimes against women. The epigraphs in the third book all have to do with female warriors—the Amazons, and so on.
Yet some critics have accused Larsson of having his feminism and eating it, too. They say that, under cover of condemning violence against women, he has supplied, for the reader's enjoyment, quite a few riveting scenes of violence against women. There are indeed many such scenes, the most vile being the sex murders in the first book. It should be noted, however, that we never see those crimes. They are in the past—they are told to Mikael and Lisbeth, and hence to us. Other crimes against women get curiously brief coverage. Niedermann's murder of the two Russian girls takes only four lines.
In terms of the plot, the most important crime in the novel's present time is the rape of Lisbeth by her state-appointed guardian, Nils Bjurman, but, while we're told that her clothes are torn off and that something is then rammed up her anus, we don't hear much more. The episode occupies only one page. By contrast, when Lisbeth returns to Bjurman's apartment to rape him, in the same way, this is given more than six pages, and the assault acquires significant embellishment. On Bjurman's torso, from his nipples to just above his crotch, Lisbeth tattoos, in big letters, "I AM A SADISTIC PIG, A PERVERT, AND A RAPIST." Some of the people who accuse Larsson of double-dealing may be thinking more of the film "Dragon Tattoo," where the two scenes are more equal in length, and where everything is more horrible just by virtue of being there, on the screen, for us to look at.
Another consideration that would seem to deflect charges of misogyny is simply the character of Lisbeth. She is a complicated person, alienating and poignant at the same time. Many critics have stressed her apparent coldness. In the scene of her revenge against Bjurman, her face never betrays hatred or fear. When the rape is over, she sits in a chair, smokes a cigarette, and stubs it out on his rug. (He is tied up.) Accordingly, some writers have called her a sociopath. Larsson, too, said that once, but elsewhere he described her as a grownup version of Pippi Longstocking, the badly behaved and happy nine-year-old heroine of a series of books, by Astrid Lindgren, beloved of Swedish children. Pippi, Lindgren wrote unsentimentally, "had no mother and no father, and that was of course very nice because there was no one to tell her to go to bed." Lisbeth wears leather and studs. She has a ring implanted in her left labium. She doesn't particularly like to be around people. But she is not a sociopath. The primary diagnostic feature of sociopathy is callousness—lack of feeling—toward others. Lisbeth falls in love with Mikael. She brings gifts—cake and perfume—to her mother, who is in a home for the mentally impaired. (Zalachenko's beatings finally caused brain damage.) She operates outside society but not outside morality. She is an outlaw, or a sprite—a punk fairy.
A final drawing card of the trilogy may be its up-to-dateness, particularly of the technological variety. Other mystery writers—Patricia Cornwell, Henning Mankell—have introduced computers into their arsenal, but no one I know of uses computers as extensively as Larsson to build plot and character. Lisbeth and Mikael find each other online, solve crimes online, acquire their glamour online. (Lisbeth has an "Apple PowerBook G4/1.0 GHz . . . with a PowerPC 7451 processor with an AltiVec Velocity Engine, 960 MB RAM and a 60 GB hard drive.") Lisbeth's only friends are fellow-hackers. Her colleague Trinity has infiltrated the computers of the BBC and Scotland Yard: "He even managed—for a short time—to take command of a nuclear submarine on patrol in the North Sea." One of the sweetest moments in the whole trilogy comes via an electronic device. Mikael has been separated from Lisbeth for almost the entire length of "The Girl Who Played with Fire." Finally, he breaks into her apartment, looking for evidence that might help her (the police are after her). His entry activates the apartment's security system. Lisbeth, driving up a country road, is alerted by her cell phone. The system is wired so that after thirty seconds a paint bomb explodes on any intruder. There are six seconds left. Mikael, guessing the machine's code, turns the system off. Lisbeth taps into her security camera and sees who is standing in her foyer. She smiles—a rare event. She knows now that Mikael is still on her side.
Related to the trilogy's cutting-edge quality is a revised view of Sweden. After the establishment of the Social Democratic government, in 1932, Sweden seemed, to many people—the Swedes, in particular—a kind of socialist utopia: maternity leaves, free love. (Ingmar Bergman's movies might appear to contradict such a view, but they are really about humankind, not about his homeland.) The writer John-Henri Holmberg, in an essay on his friend Larsson, lists what he believes are the fundamental tenets of his countrymen's vision of their society, and, in each case, Larsson's critique of them. Swedes think that their country is uniquely egalitarian (Larsson presents considerable differences between rich and poor), that Sweden is politically neutral (Larsson shows a burgeoning right), that the Swedish health-care system is the best in the world (Lisbeth is imprisoned in a state hospital), etc. Above all, the Swedes believe that their government is benign, and working for their benefit, whereas, in Holmberg's words, Larsson shows the Swedish state as "an instrument of violence, wielded against individuals who threaten the privileges and power of those who have managed to gain control of it." Larsson even denied Sweden's fabled beauty. However pretty the countryside, his Stockholm has tattoo parlors, S & M clubs, McDonald's. As Charles McGrath wrote, in the Times, Larsson's Sweden is "a country . . . a lot like our own."
The critique is not new. For decades, Sweden's writers have been portraying the supposed welfare administered by the Swedish welfare state as an empty promise. (And that welfare state may soon be disabled by the recently elected conservative government.) But Holmberg claims that Larsson's critique is more piercing, especially as it is embodied in Lisbeth. She is an anarchist. (She would surely enjoy the recent activities of WikiLeaks, whose files are stored on servers in Stockholm.) "She is . . . the nightmare of all doctrines, all consensus thinkers, all moralists and all politicians," Holmberg writes. Larsson doesn't fully endorse her view, or maybe he felt that it wouldn't have been good for sales. The trilogy ends with a gesture of trust in the government. The police are called—and by Lisbeth! But only after she's done the real work. ♦

Hello dear Liway Users
I would like to announce the immediate availability of PHP 5.2.11 and PHP 6.0.0-dev on our server. The former will significantly help those people who wish to run scripts not yet compatible with PHP 5.3 and the latter will help those of us who would like to develop with the future in mind. The two extra PHP versions are made available through the suPHP apache module. This does not affect PHP 5.3.x which will continue to run as an apache module.
I did all the installations and configurations to get this working manually, to ensure that it was all perfectly set up...and because I'm not aware of any scripts which generate such a unique setup as we now have, and I've been very closely observing all relevant log files to check for errors. In short, I'm fairly confident that I've fixed any problems, but if you experience anything out of the ordinary - you let me know.
I have written an extensive article about this in our wiki: http://wiki.liway.info/Different_PHP_Versions .
Some will undoubtedly like to skip to the how-to section, however I strongly recommend that you take the time to read and understand the differences which you will face if you plan to use the versions of PHP running through suPHP.
Also I've upgraded the forums to use reCaptcha and users can now reply to announcements, so please reply here if you have any questions or comments.
Good luck to everyone, and enjoy the best that web-hosting has to offer

First of all I must state that the Redwall series is by far one of my favorite series that I have read. That being said I must admit this is not one of my favorites out of the series. I did like this book don't get me wrong, but it was not the best of the series. Most of the time I am so amazed at how Jacques can incorporate so many different plots into one story and some how they all come together at the end. This happened in the story but I think that there was to many different plots that you really did not have highly defined main characters, and I felt kind of cheated by not getting to know all of the main characters more fully. Again I did still think it was a great book, but it lacked something for me.
There are many plots to this book as I said before, so it might get a little confusing. To reduce that almost certain confusion I am going to put the many meanwhiles in bold. Let's begin, to start off with, in Mossflower Woods the creatures of Redwall Abbey are all getting ready for the Nameday Feast. Meanwhile at Salamandastron a young badger by the name of Mara is not happy there. There are to many rules for her which are made by her adoptive father Urthstripe the Strong. So she sets off with her friend Pikkle Ffolger (a rather glutinous hare) on a journey, along with their new found friend, Klitch the blue eyed weasel. Little did they know that he was the only son of the horrible Ferahgo the Assassin, and that they where being led right into a trap layed by the weasel's very father. Meanwhile back in Mossflower Woods, two vermin that deserted Ferahgo's hoard of corps makers, by the names of Dingeye and Thura find themselves at Redwall Abby's gates just in time for the Nameday feast. They beg to be let in and are eventually on one condition, they take a much needed bath. Meanwhile back near Salamandastron, Mara and Pikkle get away only to be misled by a begrudging lizard, into a band of cannibal toads. Meanwhile back at Salamandston Ferahgo and his army attack the mountain, but it holds strong, by Lord Urthstripe and his faithful hares. Meanwhile back at Redwall Abbey, during a storm the young squirrel Samkim and the young mole maid Arula happen upon the sword of Martin the Warrior. Meanwhile later that night the two vermin Dingeye and Thura are messing with a bow and arrow and accidentally shoot and kill Brother Hal. they seeing he is dead flee the Abbey but not without first taking the newly found sword of Martin the Warrior. When brother Hal is found, Samkim and Arula go out into Mossflower Wood to find the vermin, avenge Brother Hal, and return Martin's sword to its rightful home, Redwall Abbbey. Meanwhile back at Redwall Abbey most of its inhabitants have come down with Dryditch fever, and the only cure being the Flowers of Icetor from the Mountains of the North, a brave otter by the name of Thrugg and a baby doormouse by the name of Dumble set out to find them.
I forewarned you there was a lot of plots and it was going to be VERY confusing. I did like this book it was just not my favorite. If you are already a Redwall fan and want to read the whole series be my guest and read this one also. But if you are looking to start the Redwall series please do not start with this one, chose another, and once you are hooked you can read this one.
Your confused critic,

Beyonce Shares a Few Adorable Blue Ivy Photosby Thomas Chau | PopCrush
Beyonce hasn't shared many photos of daughter Blue Ivy Carter on her Instagram account. Knowles, along with husband Jay Z, are understandably a bit protective regarding Blue's privacy. But the 'Drunk in Love' singer did share a few artistic shots with her followers over the weekend.
The first shot shows Blue trying to wear mom's heels despite only being 2 and a half years old. How cute that Blue is literally already trying to step into mom's shoes!
In her second photo, she posts a photo with Blue's face partially covered by her tiny right foot. The caption reads, appropriately, "The Blueprint" (a reference to Jay Z's 2001 album).
Jay Z, Beyonce and Blue recently spent Memorial Day weekend in the Hamptons when it was reported that they chose to not attend Kanye West and Kim Kardashian's wedding weekend in France and Italy.
