|Re: [aspectj-users] Re: when final is not
Good point...
Pointcuts are indeed not restricted by Java's access rules in what they see. Otherwise, pointcuts would pick out code inconsistently (not based on their specifications) and some crosscutting behavior which was intended to be advised would not be. [Gregor I'm sure has a better way of saying this.]
Java's access rules still apply to code (including code in the if() PCD and in other code-things in the aspect, like methods, initializers, constructors...), unless the aspect is declared privileged.
Since advice can affect and skip private methods, which most programmers consider as effectively final, it's not clear that affecting final classes is any worse. I personally found it a bit more surprising.
More than advice on final methods, it permits advice on private methods.
For instance, in the code below non-privileged aspect Peeping can delete the behaviour of the call to private method Capsule.hidden(int) and capture its argument:
public class Capsule {
private void hidden(int dummy) {
System.out.println("I should be safe here...");
public void test() {
public aspect Peeping {
pointcut privateCalls(): call(private void *(..));
pointcut call2Hidden(int arg): privateCalls() && args(arg);
void around(int arg): call2Hidden(arg) {
System.out.println("No, you're not safe: (" + arg + ").");
public class TestAccess {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Capsule capsule = new Capsule();
However, if I try to call Capsule.hidden(int) from within the Peeping's around() advive, I get error
"The method hidden(int) from the type Capsule is not visible".
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the privilege affect only the "pure-Java" parts of aspects (i.e. code inside advice)? It doesn't seem to have any effect on the semantics of pointcuts and other aspect-specific parts.
AspectJ permits you to add members to final classes and advise
various join points whose static shadows are in final classes
without specifying that the aspect is privileged. Do folks think: a) this is ok as-is
i) but we should implement XLint messages for this b) this should only work for privileged aspects c) this should only work when you have the source
code for the final classes d) only non-public members {or some other subset} is ok
because users of them know about the aspect e) this should never work Consider also: - We permit advice on field-set join points where the
field is final, and advice on the method-execution of
final methods. - Respecting final means that the AOP programmer who is working
on system issues can't implement a system-wide concern that
might not have been forseeable on the part of the programmer
of the final class, and in any case is not the responsibility
of the final class. - We'd like to be able to say things like, "AspectJ respects
Java's modularity unless you explicitly declare an aspect
privileged," in order to have a clean policy that address this
concern of newcomers. - We can write an XLint message so people can decide for
themselves whether it is ignored, a warning, or an error. Thanks -

No , no , not THAT kind of stripper ...
Yea, saw this on MoldyChum....pretty good idea in my opinion.
now where do we get one?
Hmm, if it's priced right I'd like to give it a go out on the jetty also.
Some more info here... http://www.derekmckenzie.com.au/Stripper Clip Fly Line Magagement.html
Not new at all, I purchased the exact same Stripper Clip from Orvis many years ago. I still have it and it does as advertised very well. It is nice to see the Stripper Clip available again. Orvis stopped carrying them a long time ago.
As if Two handed fishermen don't look goofy enough. LLOL (literally laughing out loud). I'm sure it works but I'm not adorning myself with anymore accessories, it will upset my chi and steelhead gods will shun me.
Seems cool, but I spend more time in water up to my tits than not, so I don't know if it'll work... Maybe a floating version???
Heck, may replace the stripping basket for saltwater use - no tangles in the running line and no basket to fill with water and block your view of your feet.
That's what I was thinking. I'm generally happy with the way my makeshift $5 stripping basket works, but I do get the occasional tangle. Most importantly, I'm constantly shifting the basket to by backside so I can see as I walk the jetty, if I'm gonna kill myself out there I'd like the excitement of knowing it's coming.
For spey casting, I feel comfortable managing the line in my hand since the stripping is mostly just to get the line in for the next cast instead of fishing the stripped fly.
It says Made in USA from a 20 years old business, does anyone know of a source or the maker?

Creating an Innovation-Based Economy
Economic growth is the foundation for high-wage jobs that build strong communities. Twenty years of experience as a business leader have shown me that sustainable economic growth occurs when people transform new ideas into business innovations that solve old problems or create new markets.
Here in the 8th Congressional District and the Puget Sound region as a whole, we have the ingredients to drive the growth of new, innovation-based businesses. We have a workforce that ranks among the best educated and most entrepreneurial in the nation, world-leading companies that have built global businesses on the strength of their ideas, and a university that is at the forefront of advancement in key areas of science and research.
But in too many ways, the district has failed to achieve the full promise of its potential to create opportunities for its citizens and deliver sustainable economic growth and prosperity for its communities.
What we need now are policies that provide the incentives and infrastructure to support our existing businesses and nurture new companies and industries. This is equally true for the nation as a whole.
We can have smart policies that encourage entrepreneurs to launch new companies and existing companies to expand. I'll work to enact incentives that foster the growth of new innovation-based industries.
Here are some policies that I believe can help create the innovation economy we need in this district and this country:
* R&D incentives for business: Government support for private-sector research and development is one key to America's long-standing leadership in innovation. As an executive in the high-tech industry, I saw how the lack of a permanent R&D tax credit creates uncertainties for businesses that invest in research. I want to make the R&D tax credit permanent.
* Government investment in research: From physics to aerospace, medicine, and computer science, the U.S. government has long sponsored basic research that has played a vital role in America's economic leadership. Continued government support for research is important for the long-term health of our economy, and we need to increase our research efforts in key areas of science and technology.
* Emerging industries: Here in the 8th Congressional District, we're in an ideal position to lead the development of new businesses that focus on information technology, green technology, biotechnology, and global health care. I support the Green Bank Act, which would fund clean energy projects through a tax-exempt corporation owned by the U.S. government. It is a good model for encouraging private investment in pioneering new technologies.
* Incentives for small businesses: Start-up companies and small businesses are the economic backbone of our communities. Throughout my career in business, I've been involved in helping start new businesses. I know that smart tax policies and well-targeted incentives can make a huge difference in the success or failure of a young company. I will work to expand tax deductions for start-up companies, and speed depreciation and simplify tax filings for small businesses.
* High-speed rail: A modern rail system that moves people and freight quickly and efficiently should be a national priority. Here in the Puget Sound region, our ability to ship freight to cities in the Midwest and East is hampered by a rail system that is overburdened and outdated. Meanwhile, a high-speed rail system that spans the northwest corridor from Portland through the Puget Sound to Vancouver B.C. would enhance the competitiveness of the entire region.
* Broadband infrastructure: Numerous studies make clear that expanded access to broadband networks can have a strong economic impact. For example, a study found that increasing the number of broadband subscribers by 10 people per 100 can increase GDP growth by 1.2 percent. I believe expanding the nation's broadband network to provide a world-class information infrastructure for our citizens and businesses should be an important priority for the nation.

THE golfing world is holding its breath following the news that St Andrews Links Trust is planning a number of changes to the famous Old Course ahead of the return of the Open Championship in 2015.
Given the stature of the St Andrews course and its worldwide reputation, there has been much debate since the changes were announced - with some golfers claiming it is too iconic to be altered radically.
However, local golf historian David Joy, who is still considering the new changes announced this week, told the Citizen that the Old Course has changed and evolved many times over the years.
He added: "Tom Morris took some real flack in his day for some of the huge changes he made, none more so that changing it from a nine hole course to 18 - there is no bigger change you can make.
"That was in response to the technology available at the time which changed how balls were made and allowed far more people to start playing the game.
"Changes have always been made to the Old Course but I wouldn't like to say anything to these latest plans until I go round and look at what they have come up with."
Golf course architect Martin Hawtree was commissioned by the Links Trust and The R&A Championship Committee, who were keen to maintain the challenging nature of the course for the top professionals as well as the many thousands who flock to play their each year.
The recommendations have now been agreed by the two groups and the work is scheduled to take place in two phases over the next two winters.
The most eye-catching of the changes will be to the Road Bunker which is to be widened by half a metre at the right hand side.
The first of the changes will take place this winter at the second, seventh, 11th and 17th holes.
Second phase will take place during the following winter with work carried out on the third, fourth, sixth, ninth and 15th holes.
Euan Loudon, chief executive of the Links Trust, said: "The Old Course is renowned as one of the great Open venues and its continued prominence on the roster is crucially important to the economy and reputation of St Andrews.
"The Old Course has evolved over time and the Links Trust is delighted to be working with the Championship Committee in order to maintain the challenge of the course for elite tournament players and the thousands of golfers who play here each year."
A new bunker will be created on the right of the third fairway and another on the left of the ninth, 20 yards from the green.
Bunkers will be repositioned closer to the right edge of the second and the right of the fourth greens while a portion of the back left of the 11th green will be lowered to create more hole location options.
Peter Dawson, chief executive of The R&A, said: "We have considered the challenge presented to the world's top golfers by each of the Open Championship venues and carried out a programme of improvements over the last ten years.
"While some holes have been lengthened on the Old Course in recent years it has otherwise remained largely unaltered.
"The Championship Committee felt there was an opportunity to stiffen its defences in some places to ensure it remains as challenging as ever to the professionals.
"The proposals from Martin Hawtree should place more of a premium on accuracy and ball control while retaining the spirit and character of the Old Course."

This iReport is part of an assignment:
Tell us the Good Stuff!
Random Act of Kindness... or authentic Corporate Social Responsibility?
Some organisations speak about Corporate Responsibility - others simply do it!
When AIESEC New Zealand powered a unique meeting to activate global youth leadership, they planned to bring together young leaders from eight New Zealand Universities and connect them with Leadership Role Models.
Hamish Walton, Owner operator, PAK'nSAVE Mill St., Hamilton heard about the event. Mr. Walton wanted to show his support to this awesome youth development initiative and asked his master baker to bake for the occasion. When the cake was brought in during the conference, the young leaders were so moved by this kind gesture that all stopped for a huge Thank You call.
Ally Tiang, WINTEC Computer student was onsite and reported on the events of the day. Watch his video story at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCRlSYYnmaA&feature=youtu.be
Nothing is more gratifying than being recognised for your efforts - as were the hundred youth gathered that day... As the proverbial New Zealand expression goes: Sweet as!! ... and thank you so much to the PAK'n SAVE Mill St. bakers responsible for this treat!!
Random Act of Kindness... or authentic Corporate Social Responsibility?... Well, at the very least it is Community support at its best - and a moment to be remembered!

It was just a move across the street – but the details of packing up It's Greek To Me and shuttling it a few hundred feet – overnight – were complex.

Forums → WEPR → Christian Movies
As many people are already aware, a movie called God's Not Dead came out in movie theaters. It's about a college student who gets put into a philosophy class where the atheist professor demands that all of his students write that God is dead. It culminates in a debate between the student and the professor, in which the student wins and successfully defends God. The movie grossed around 53 million in the box office on a 2 million dollar budget and was thus quite successful.
When I first heard about the movie I rolled my eyes. I haven't seen the movie myself (although I sort of want to) but from the trailer the characters appear quite stereotypical and the arguments could have been pulled straight from the Theism vs Atheism thread here on ArmorGames for their originality. They even bring in people from Duck Dynasty in the movie as a minor role it seems. The atheist professor especially plays exactly to a caricature of a "militant atheist" and the exact plot is a little ... disturbing. I'll link to the wiki that gives a full synopsis here. It strikes me as revenge-y and angry towards atheists and comes across like a huge pat on the back to Christians.
Now there's another movie coming out called A Matter of Faith which is about a college student (female this time) who goes into a biology course, where the teacher is *GASP* an "Evolutionist." Following the exact same plot line as in God's Not Dead, the atheist/non-Christian teacher engages in a public debate with a Christian defending Creationism/God after protesting that Creationism is not even mentioned as a valid alternative theory in the course. The biology professor presumably "loses" due to the superiority of the Christian's arguments (in this case, the girl's father).
Is this just trying to interest Christians? Or is it intended to be persuasive and to make a point? I'm curious to hear what everyone thinks about these. Are there any other movies that have been made in recent years that follow this same plot device, or is this a new trend?
Also...EDIT! YAY.

Where is this quote coming from Xeano? I'm curious about the context because something smells fishy but I can't find who you're responding to.
Page 1.
That was the same attitude the pilgrim fathers had in the seventeenth(?) century, so no change there then.
The difference is that they were actively being persecuted by the majority group. The reason we've got freedom of and from religion, and separation of church and state, was originally to prevent different Christians from attacking each other through legislation.
actively being persecuted
By that, I mean locked up or executed, not occasionally mocked.
This happens frequently in life, but it's by no means a stereotype in my opinion.
Far as i can tell most atheists tend to not accept the claimed existence of a god due to the sheer lack of evidence supporting the claim. It's not usually the result of harboring a hatred toward the deity.
Puritans? Persecuted? Somewhat, perhaps, but they were far worse, as they were religious extremists that violently overthrew the monarchy in England, and the resulting totalitarian military dictatorship (Which put a ban on theaters, sport, christmas, and fun in general.) was so unpopular the monarchy reinstalled itself as soon as the dictator died.
That's harsh. I have personally never attacked someone here on AG, or elsewhere, simply because they expressed their belief in God.
Harsh? How is that harsh? Merely stating my opinion on the reactions I saw. No offense/attack intended.
Where is this quote coming from Xeano? I'm curious about the context because something smells fishy but I can't find who you're responding to.
@Kasic SSTG posted it on the first page. CTRL-F is greatly helpful in these cases considering the small size of the thread.

By frequently I don't mean by majority. Slight difference, but you can't deny the latter doesn't happen in some cases.
Also, please keep in mind it's a movie. Don't analyse the behaviour of a character and think this is real life.
Only merely giving background to provide clarification. It's very obviously NOT real life.
God's Not Dead is basically a movie that feeds off of the persecution complex many Christians have because they think not being able to smear their beliefs in everyone else's faces without total acceptance and the response they get when they try is unjustified.
Have you actually watched the movie? Because that claim doesn't really fit in with the actual storyline.
By frequently I don't mean by majority. Slight difference, but you can't deny the latter doesn't happen in some cases.
I'm sure it does happen, but I'm also sure it is not that frequent. Personally I know of no such case, but maybe your experience differs in that aspect?
By frequently I don't mean by majority. Slight difference, but you can't deny the latter doesn't happen in some cases.
Had a friend of our point out on facebook something relevant to this point. They said that a negative experience doesn't lead to atheism, but can lead to doubt. That in turn can lead to a re-evaluation of ones position, which could take many different paths. In short it's not as simple as saying the person is just angry and leaving it at just that won't get you an atheist.
im jewish, i believe in god, i think most people who talked to me in this section also know this, yet i was never attacked because of that. in fact, i found myself usually supporting the "atheist side".
havnt watched the movie so i might be totally wrong but from what i got in this thread its like:
"well, more and more people get educated, more and more people believe in science, more and more people accept homosexuality, lets make an emotional movie that shows that people should convert. lets also use high leveled educated people like professors and regular kids that are easy to relate to as main characters to make the point."
it really does seem like its just an attempt to make people convert. how many movies have you watched that influenced you while watching it, then after some alone thinking time you realised they were complete nonsense?
i myself got convinced that i want to join the army during a presentation which is totally the opposite of what i want, wanted and ever will want. i watched ratatouille and thought i should try cooking.
emotional plots, loveable characters that are easy to connect to and such stuff effect us, plain and simple. and this is what this movie probably tried to do.
and lets not forget the fact that probably any extremely religious christian probably went to watch the movie. so easy profit as well.
im gonna guess that this is gonna start a new trend. and i also expect it to eventually cause some big drama. just imagine justin bieber/twilight lovers/haters only add religion to the recipe. gonna be interesting lol

PARIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--THERAVECTYS, a French biotechnology company currently developing a new generation of vaccines, today announced it was granted authorization by the National Security Agency for Medicines and Health Products in France (Agence Nationale de Sécurité du Médicament et des produits de santé) and the Federal Agency for Medicines and Health Products in Belgium (Agence Fédérale des Médicaments et des Produits de Santé) to launch a phase I/II clinical trial for its anti-HIV therapeutic vaccine candidate based on lentiviral vector technology.
"In 12 months, THERAVECTYS should be able to demonstrate safety and immunogenicity in humans. This expected confirmation will not only bring tremendous hope for all HIV positive patients, but it will also open a path for new developments."
Renaud VAILLANT, Chief Executive Officer of THERAVECTYS states "This authorization marks a key step in the company's development. THERAVECTYS will be the first company in the world to initiate an anti-HIV therapeutic vaccination clinical trial with lentiviral vectors."
About the trial sponsored by THERAVECTYS
This double-blind placebo controlled study will include 36 patients in 6 clinical centers: 4 in France and 2 in Belgium.
Pr. Odile LAUNAY, coordinator at the Cochin-Pasteur Clinical Investigation Center based at the Cochin Hospital in Paris, France, will be the coordinating investigator of the trial. "This study should confirm the preclinical data and the ability of the vaccine candidate, based on the result of fundamental research conducted at the Pasteur Institute, to induce an immune response against HIV" says Pr. Odile LAUNAY.
A phase I/II clinical trial
With this first human trial, THERAVECTYS not only intends to evaluate the safety and tolerance of its therapeutic vaccine candidate but also to measure the quality and intensity of the induced immune response.
The anti-HIV therapeutic vaccine developed by THERAVECTYS should allow patients treated with antiretroviral drugs to stop taking them on a sustainable and perhaps permanent basis once vaccinated. "We expect to enroll our first patient before the end of the year", says Dr. Emmanuelle SABBAH-PETROVER, in charge of THERAVECTYS' Regulatory Affairs and Clinical Trials who adds: "Our early interactions with the French, Belgian and European regulatory agencies facilitated their investigations on our clinical trial applications."
Lentiviral vectors supporting anti-HIV vaccination
THERAVECTYS uses lentiviral vector technology to develop a new generation of vaccines. Unlike other gene transfer vectors, lentiviral vectors have the unique ability to induce a strong, sustainable and diversified cellular immune response, which should help remove infected cells.
Dr. Cécile BAUCHE, Chief Scientific Officer of THERAVECTYS states: "In 12 months, THERAVECTYS should be able to demonstrate safety and immunogenicity in humans. This expected confirmation will not only bring tremendous hope for all HIV positive patients, but it will also open a path for new developments."
About THERAVECTYS:
THERAVECTYS, a biotechnology company, has developed a new generation of vaccines based on lentiviral vector technology. Built on the result of fundamental research conducted at the Pasteur Institute, this breakthrough technology is expected to enable the prevention or effective treatment of many diseases in which the induction of effective cellular immune response is required: viral diseases (HIV), bacterial or parasitic diseases, cancers, etc. Since its creation, THERAVECTYS has been working on the development of a therapeutic vaccine against HIV, for which the Phase I/II clinical trial has just been initiated. Benefitting from an exclusive worldwide license with the Pasteur Institute and from financial support from public institutions (OSEO, ANR), THERAVECTYS is continuing its research and development efforts to combat other diseases. It plans to be developing new vaccine candidates shortly, either alone or in collaboration with other pharmaceutical laboratories.

New thermal images of North Korea's nuclear research center reveal that North Korea is heavily increasing the production of nuclear material for Kim Jong Un's nuclear weapons stockpile.
38 North, a Washington-based North Korea monitoring project, reported that the scans of the nuclear facility at Yongbyon showed a jump in thermal activity, which would otherwise suggest a rise in plutonium production.
Advertisement - story continues below
Researchers also detected increased thermal activity, possibly the result of centrifuge operations, at another facility dedicated to uranium enrichment.
From The Daily Caller:
North Korea ramped up uranium enrichment in September, leading experts to conclude that the North could produce six nuclear bombs per year, and the International Atomic Energy Association reported in March that North Korea has more than doubled the size of its uranium enrichment facility in recent years, pushing nuclear material production into a "new phase."
Observers also noticed possible activity at the Experimental Light Water Reactor, which could be "cause for concern."
If the rogue state is processing plutonium and uranium, it is very likely the North Korean regime intends to expand its nuclear arsenal, a deeply concerning discovery given North Korea's recent test of an intercontinental ballistic missile that some experts assess could strike the U.S., specifically Alaska, parts of the Pacific Northwest, and possibly even the West Coast.
Fortunately, the country does not appear to be producing tritium at the moment, which is an essential isotope in the production of nuclear weapons and hydrogen bombs.
Advertisement - story continues below
However, while the facility is not currently operational, experts believe that North Korea has the ability to produce tritium.
"I believe they have made tritium," Siegfried Hecker explained to reporters in South Korea last month, although he expressed doubts about the North's ability to develop a hydrogen bomb now. "They can make tritium so they have the basic element for a hydrogen bomb. But it takes much more than that to weaponize hydrogen bombs. I don't believe they can do that." North Korea claimed the successful test of a hydrogen bomb last January, but experts are skeptical.
North Korea has conducted five nuclear tests since 2006, with two successful tests last year. With each test, the explosive yield has grown, enhancing North Korea's ability to bomb the countries it considers enemies to pieces, which includes the U.S. of course.
Advertisement - story continues below
The Trump administration, like its predecessors, is pursuing denuclearization on the Korean Peninsula. Trump has abandoned the Obama-era policy of "strategic patience," and the president and his team are applying "maximum pressure and engagement," which involves military deterrence, economic sanctions, and diplomatic pressure, to rein in North Korea.

But perhaps even more startling than the violence was the quiet yet powerful response of the Amish community offering unconditional forgiveness to the murderer and reaching out to his family with baskets of food and warm welcomes into their homes. Could such forgiveness be genuine, truly heartfelt? Surely there must be simmering rage behind those peaceful words.
Jonas Beiler wondered. He had grown up in that very Amish community. His own pain of losing his daughter in a tragic accident years before resurfaced, and the lingering shadows of other life tragedies loomed darker. As he met with the grieving families, he could see how devastated and broken they felt, and yet he was drawn to the strength he saw in them.
Outsiders, too, had difficulty understanding the rock-solid faith of the people in this Amish community. How could they forgive someone who killed their innocent daughters? How could they reach out and embrace his family, expressing unconditional love for them in these circumstances? Letters from around the world poured in, asking these universal questions in the face of suffering.
And so began Jonas Beiler's journey into this story - the story behind the headlines, behind the farmhouse doors, around the lantern-lit kitchen tables, at the local market, and alongside the tiny coffins. His quest is now yours to read, his discoveries yours to consider.
Walk with those closest to the scene: an Amish grandfather, an ambulance driver, a surviving Amish schoolgirl, and volunteer firefighters. Even look on as the community demolishes t...

"book of 2 halves"
1st half very informative 2nd half becomes a bit preachy and more about religion than the incident
"A Must Read!!"
I have always loved the Amish people, but after reading this book I love them even more. They are truly remarkable people. Everyone should read this book. It's teachings are invaluable!

Barack Obama Expected to Support USA's FIFA World Cup Bid, Even Without ChicagoJanuary 13, 2010
In a surprise decision, the city of Chicago, the hometown of U.S. President Barack Obama and home of the U.S. Soccer Federation headquarters, will not be included as one of the potential venue cities in the official USA bid to host the 2018 and 2022 FIFA World Cup.
That fact was revealed by U.S. Soccer President Sunil Gulati in a press conference held today in New York City.
When asked if leaving the city of Chicago off of the list of selected venues will affect President Barack Obama's support of the USA bid, Gulati indicated that the USA Bid Committee has received and expects to continue to receive the full and passionate support of President Obama.
"But we haven't talked to him recently about these cities. I think he's got a few other things on his mind," Gulati said jokingly. Before being elected President, Obama served as a U.S. Senator representing Illinois and was a longtime resident of Chicago.
As for the reasons for leaving Chicago out, Gulati said that "Chicago has a rich soccer history, but it was clear to us Olympic fatigue became a factor," referring to the city's failed attempt to land the 2016 Olympic Games. Chicago's Soldier Field stadium hosted several matches and the opening ceremony of the 1994 World Cup.
Gulati went on to reveal that there are many soccer fans in the Obama administration, including press secretary Robert Gibbs, who was a goalkeeper in college at NC State.
As to the significance of counting on the support of the U.S. President, Gulati said "We don't have Nelson Mandela, we don't have (German soccer legend) Franz Beckenbauer, nor Pele. We have Barack Obama."
A press release from U.S. Soccer stated that President Obama reached out to FIFA, the world's governing body of soccer, in April of last year, to endorse the goal of bringing the world's largest sporting event back to the United States.
In a letter to FIFA President Joseph "Sepp" Blatter and U.S. Soccer President Gulati, President Obama noted the role soccer played in his life as a youth, and its ability to unite people, communities and nations from every continent, according to the release.
U.S. Soccer also indicated that in July, Obama and Blatter met at the White House to discuss the U.S. bid and other soccer-related topics. The meeting was marked by Blatter confirming his invitation for President Obama to be his guest at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. President Obama has expressed his interest in attending the event pending availability on his schedule.
Besides Chicago, other cities that hosted games in the 1994 World Cup that were also left off the bid, include San Francisco, Detroit and Orlando.
On the flip side, thirteen cities that have never held FIFA World Cup matches were announced. They are: Atlanta (Georgia Dome), Baltimore (M&T Bank Stadium) Denver (Invesco Field), Houston (Reliant Stadium), Indianapolis (Lucas Oil Stadium), Kansas City (Arrowhead Stadium), Miami (Land Shark Stadium), Nashville (LP Field), Philadelphia (Lincoln Financial Field), Phoenix (University of Phoenix Stadium), San Diego (Qualcomm Stadium), Seattle (Qwest Field and Husky Stadium), and Tampa (Raymond James Stadium).
The USA Bid Committee also included five cities that hosted games in the 1994 World Cup: Boston (Gillette Stadium), Dallas (Cotton Bowl and Cowboys Stadium), Los Angeles (Rose Bowl and LA Memorial Coliseum), New York/New Jersey (New Meadowlands Stadium), and Washington, D.C. (FedEx Field).
Gulati said that FIFA is probably leaning toward awarding the 2018 games to a European host to be selected from the England, Netherlands-Belgium, Portugal-Spain, and the Russia bids. In effect, that means the U.S. will be competing with Australia, Japan, Indonesia, Qatar, and South Korea for the 2022 bid. Mexico withdrew its bid in September of last year.
All candidates must have their bid applications to FIFA by May 14, 2010. FIFA will name the two hosts for the 2018 and 2022 tournaments on Dec. 2, 2010.

A portable, self-contained wastewater-treatment system, the Water Phoenix, that can convert municipal wastewater into effluent that meets U.S.
The metal is used in the stainless steel his company uses to build wastewater-treatment, oilseed-processing and other equipment, so when the price of nickel moves higher he knows that his costs are heading higher, too.
"Coupled with the fact that the outcome achieved was a wastewater-treatment system operating at levels far below what was anticipated, it is difficult to conclude that the project was worth the $100 million investment and the many lives lost," the audit states.
"Instead, I would respectfully suggest that the Fallujah wastewater-treatment plant is a model of how to turn around a project on the verge of failure."
In a response to the audit, Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Iraq Barbara Leaf said the wastewater-treatment project had shown some success, despite the initial setbacks.
Stuart Bowen, the head of the watchdog agency, said the wastewater-treatment project—which was ambitious, difficult to sustain and failed to take into account the capacity of the local government—was emblematic of U.S. reconstruction efforts in Iraq.
These facilities gather and incinerate solid waste from wastewater-treatment plants all over the city.
GATLINBURG, Tenn. — Crews on Tuesday recovered the bodies of two workers from the rubble of a wastewater-treatment plant wall that collapsed earlier in the day, while officials continued to investigate what caused the breach that released sewage into a rain-swollen river at Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
Tennessee Sewage Plant Spill: 2 Bodies Found After Gatlinburg Wastewater-Treatment Plant Incident
If you you replace suburban shopping centers with highly intensive urban "farms" that would be more like greenhouse complexes, they would already have a built-in irrigation system for dry weather and could divert their nutrient-rich farm runoff to the local wastewater-treatment plant, many of which are "advanced," which means they remove the nitrogen and phosphorus.

Lenovo LePad tablet launch at CES, features, specifications and price
Lenovo LePad features Price and Features
Lenovo LePad tablet was launched at the Consumer Electronic Show 2011 in Las Vegas on Thursday. Experts believe that this year's CES will be focused mainly around tablets and more tablets with a hope to give the iPad, the biggest and the most successful tablet ever, some competition. And to join the race Chinese computer colossus launched its tablet called LePad that serves the dual purpose of both a laptop for work and a touch screen tablet for leisure. Lenovo LePad features Android 2.2 OS by Google dubbed as LeOS.
The other features and specifications of Lenovo LePad include a 10.1-inch color screen and IdeaPad U1 China only. The tablet runs on 1.3GHz Snapdragon chip from Qualcomm. Users can enjoy the present day mobile lifestyle by seeing videos, enjoying music, playing games, surfing the internet and reading e-books on the tablet.
Lenovo Lepad is both a touch screen tablet and a laptop and supports 3G that enables users to get connected to the internet. Last year Lenovo launched IdeaPad at the CES and won praises for the Hybrid tablet laptop. Now Lenovo this year has moved one step ahead by offering the IdeaPad U1 hybrid with an added LePad Slate tablet that makes it a complete laptop.
Lenovo LePad also has plans to add Flash Player 10.1 meaning there is no default Flash support.
Another features that comes with Lenovo LePad is its Keypad Dock bundle similar to the one offered by Apple iPad. Once you put the LePad Slate to the U1 base, it boots into Windows 7 Home Premium OS. As the tablet cum laptop operates on Android, the device comes pre-loaded with several apps and gets support from Android Market.
Lenovo LePad features a front-facing camera for video calling and just weight less than two pounds. In China the LePad will come with IdeaPad U1and will be available in the market in March. In the US the LePad will not be made available until it gets upgraded to the next version of Android OS offered by Google for tablets.

Burnley's MP has hit back angrily at claims that Burnley is among the most dangerous places in the world.
Gordon Birtwistle told the Express that he is furious about an article on the Daily Mail's website which compares an old image of Trafalgar Street with some of the world's most notorious, crime-ridden cities such as Miami and Bangkok.
He said: "I am absolutely appalled the Daily Mail should publish such an article. The reporter has probably never even visited Burnley.
"Trafalgar Street has some wonderful examples of regeneration, including the University Technical College, businesses and green space.
"The Daily Mail don't know what they are talking about and this sort of reporting really angers me."

Obama Beefs Up His Libya War Talk
President Obama spoke from the White House earlier this afternoon to give some details about that minor U.S.-supported military intervention in Libya authorization the United Nations passed yesterday. He probably didn't want to say anything, but he's jetting to Brazil this weekend and felt he should throw American citizens a bone about the possible third war we're entering.
While he made clear that Western ground troops would not be deployed, he also delivered an ultimatum to dictator Muammar Qaddafi:
"Muammar Qaddafi has a choice," he said. "The United States, the United Kingdom, France and Arab states agree that a cease-fire must be implemented immediately. That means all attacks against civilians must stop."
"Let me be clear, these terms are not negotiable," Mr. Obama said in the East Room of the White House. "If Colonel Qaddafi does not comply with the resolution, the international community will impose consequences. The resolution will be enforced through military action."
Qaddafi has called for a ceasefire with rebels in the east, but there's no indication that he intends actually to cease fire on rebels in the east. He loves to "get crazy" with the world, after all. So we'll see! In the meantime, enjoy doing fun things in Rio, Mister President.

Spoetzl Brewery, makers of Texas' beloved Shiner beer, has joined the ranks of businesses contributing to relief efforts for victims of Hurricane Harvey.
The iconic Texas brewery announced Friday that they donated $500,000 to several nonprofit organizations providing aid to Texans impacted by the devastating storm.
"We have family, friends and fans all across Texas who have been affected in many ways by Hurricane Harvey," Shiner said in a Facebook post. "Our hearts go out to them, and we want to help."
Spoetzl Brewery is located in Shiner, TX, which is in Lavaca County, one of the counties included in a disaster declaration from Texas Governor Greg Abbott.
On Tuesday, Aug. 29, the brewery posted:
Thanks to all of you for your kind thoughts and inquiries about the brewery, our workers and the town of Shiner. We appreciate your concern. We're working to get back on our feet and have re-opened the brewery. We're now focusing on what we can do to help Texans affected by Hurricane Harvey, in the immediate future and down the road.

Underground is one of those books I was taken by the first time I read it, perched at the Roaring Brook booth at ALA this summer. It's a quiet book, but one that is worth some closer attention. The Underground of the title is the Underground Railroad and the story is written for very young readers.
Each page reads like a very early reader. This is the text in its entirety: "The darkness/The escape/We are quiet/The fear/We run/We rest/We make new friends/Others help/Some don't make it/We are tired/We are almost there/The light/The Sun/Freedom. I am free. He is free. She is free. We are free."
The illustrations are equally spare and powerful. Using dark and light, Evans shows the challenges the slaves faced when they decided to escape slavery, from darkness of each night on the road to the light of freedom. Computer-created collage (paint underneath drawings) is the chosen medium and it works well for this story. Though most pages are a deep midnight blue, Evans places the moon and stars, a light in the window, a torch, or the sun in most spreads to remind the reader that there is always hope, even in the darkest moments. And the final pages, bathed in yellow, let the reader know that freedom has indeed been reached.
It's always tough to gauge when children are ready for Tough Topics—and the history of enslaved people definitely falls into that category. Evans strikes the right balance with his spare but honest illustrations and text and in telling this difficult chapter of our history for the very young.
Nonfiction doesn't fare too well in the Caldecott voting. Early readers don't do too well either. Difficult topics rarely sport a medal. However, this in one that an adventurous committee should debate.

Publisher/Vendor/Library Relations Interest Group
8:00 am to 10:00 am
US/Pacific (-7)
When in Anaheim, please join the Publisher/Vendor/Library Relations (PVLR) Interest Group for what promises to be a lively session on a topic our group doesn't usually deal with: MARC records. That's right: MARC records.
Libraries/librarians often complain that publisher/vendor-supplied MARC records that can accompany e-book deals are less than desirable. They are also often free of charge. And on the flip side, we've heard publishers and vendors respond that librarians are being too picky. Where's the happy medium? Join us for a conversation of issues relating to MARC records for e-books.
PVLR's panel, including librarian, publisher, and vendor perspectives, promises some energetic discussion, and will meet Monday, June 25, 8-10 AM in the Hyatt Pacific Room.

Posted on 04/29/2012 2:14:19 PM PDT by SoConPubbie
Summary Mitt Romney casts himself as tough on illegal immigration in a new ad in which he says that, as Massachusetts governor, "I authorized the State Police to enforce immigration laws." He doesn't mention that his order never took effect. It came in the closing days of his administration and was rescinded by his successor, as we wrote back in August.
He also promises, "As president, I'll . . . cut funding for sanctuary cities." Maybe so, but as governor he took no action against several such towns in his state.
We find Romney misleading on both counts. Analysis Romney's ad began airing Nov. 1 and has run in Iowa and New Hampshire.
Cops on the Case
Romney claims he put state troopers on the trail of illegals in his state.
Romney: As governor, I authorized the state police to enforce immigration laws.
Well, yes. But, as we noted in August, he didn't do so until he had less than a month left in his term. He was already considering running for president, and the new governor-elect was expected to rescind the arrangement.
Romney began talking about giving troopers the power to make arrests on immigration charges earlier in 2006, but he didn't sign an agreement with the federal government - a necessary condition for that authority to be granted - until Dec. 13 of that year. Romney was scheduled to leave office Jan. 4, 2007. Democrat Deval Patrick, who had won the race to succeed Romney, had already said the program was a "bad idea" because troopers were busy enough as it was.
Sure enough, Patrick rescinded the agreement within his first week in office so troopers could "focus on enforcing Massachusetts laws." The policy never had a chance to take effect, because those troopers chosen to carry it out hadn't yet begun a required six-week training course.
Romney shifts to promise-making mode as he continues:
Romney: As President, I'll oppose amnesty, cut funding for sanctuary cities and secure our borders.
Romney might well get tough on sanctuary cities in the future, but he didn't when he was governor.
During his tenure, at least four Massachusetts cities enacted or renewed legislation declaring themselves sanctuaries for illegal immigrants. Brookline and Cambridge reaffirmed their longtime status as sanctuary cities in so many words. Somerville and Orleans didn't officially deem themselves "sanctuaries," but Somerville affirmed its "long-standing policies in support of all immigrants," while Orleans forbade city officials from turning in illegal immigrants without probable cause.
We asked Romney's campaign if he had acted against these cities, but they didn't provide us with any examples. As far as we were able to determine in our own research, Romney made no attempts to penalize, censure, or cut funding to them.
Romney for President Ad: "Change Immigration"
Romney: We all know Hillary Clinton and the Democrats have it wrong on illegal immigration. Our party should not make that mistake.
As Governor, I authorized the State Police to enforce immigration laws. I opposed driver's licenses and in-state tuition for illegal aliens.
As president, I'll oppose amnesty, cut funding for sanctuary cities and secure our borders.
Legal immigration is great, but illegal immigration that's got to stop.
I'm Mitt Romney and I approved this message.Gimme Shelter

Tech:Render SVG images as PNG images
Moved from en:Wikitravel:Feature requests by Evan
I see that Wikipedia renders the svg file directly as an image, without having to export it to png and upload it again. IWBNI we could have the same feature all over Wikitravel. — Ravikiran 12:57, 15 July 2006 (EDT) (whose "broadband" line is slower than a dialup today)
Merged from Tech:Error displaying SVG images
Impossible to display SVG images. Example:
We should see a flag of South Africa above. Instead we see the text: "Image:Flag of South Africa.svg".
Note that a direct link to the /shared file does work: clicking here downloads the file and displays it correctly (if you have a browser capable of displaying SVG files, e.g. Firefox). The problem only occurs when the [[Image:filename]] syntax is used. —Unsigned comment by Zvika (talk • contribs) .
Merged from Tech:SVG files are not automatically rendered
There's an option in MediaWiki to automatically render SVG files as PNGs. We've turned it on and off several times over the years, since it's kind of useful (good) but the rendering is usually pretty poor. I'm going to leave it turned off until there's been a discussion about whether to turn it on or off. --Evan 12:38, 22 October 2006 (EDT)

Cardiff Star Expects Starting Place
Cardiff City's towering defender Roger Johnson is confident of being selected to start the first game of the season when Stoke City are the visitors to Ninian Park.
Johnson endured a frustrating start to his Cardiff career, after joining from Wycombe Wanderers last year. Initially, Johnson was a substitute having not played at this level before. Injuries and suspensions to first choice pairing of Purse & Loovens handed Johnson a number of opportunities, in which he acquitted himself well and impressed.
However, he was not able to cement a place in the team, and was often the fall guy when Purse / Loovens returned. Towards the end of last season, Johnson remained a bright spot despite an apalling reversal in form. His accomplished and dominant performances made him a suprise contender for player-of-the-season despite not starting many more than half the games.
Now Johnson hopes he has proved himself and can force his way past captain Purse and start every week. He told the Cardiff Post:
'I'm no different to any other player at Cardiff, I want my name on that team sheet to start against Stoke City on Saturday.'
'Obviously it's up to the gaffer, but I feel I've done reasonably well in pre-season to be in with a shout on Saturday.'
'And, of course, if I'm not in the team I will be greatly disappointed. I can't help it, that's the way I am.'
Johnson's cause may be helped by a lack of match fitness to Darren Purse meaning that Johnson is favourite to partner Glenn Loovens in the heart of the Cardiff defence.
Stoke City include 6ft 4in striker Jon Parkin in their squad and Johnson's extra height may be useful against the aerial threat of Stoke City.

New Tomography Best for Detecting Plaque
South Korean scientists say a new scanning technology -- optical coherence tomography -- might be the best way to detect coronary artery vulnerable plaque.
Vulnerable plaque, or VP, has been identified as a possible cause of sudden cardiac death, most of which occurs in patients with no history of heart disease. The researchers said VP is different from fibrotic, calcified plaque that grows gradually until a lesion occludes an artery. VP is susceptible to sudden rupture, swiftly forming a clot that blocks the flow of blood through a coronary artery, causing a heart attack.In the new study, a team of researchers at Ajou University School of Medicine in Suwon, Korea, discovered OCT provides superior contrast and resolution in imaging the components of plaque in coronary arteries versus other methods. Lead investigator Dr. Choi So-yeon said, "OCT may answer longstanding questions about the relationship between VP and the risk of heart attack."
The research is being presented this week in Washington during the 20th annual Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics scientific symposium, sponsored by the Cardiovascular Research Foundation.

Now, there's another reason not to get a DUI in the Phoenix metro area. Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio recently created a female chain gang that is made up of women who have all been convicted of driving under the influence.
The chain gangs in Arizona consist of a group of inmates who perform labor in Tent City and around the county-- sometimes during triple digit weather at this time of the year. Inmates in the chain gang are volunteers and can often be seen picking up trash in Valley communities in the black-and-white striped uniforms. This week, FOX News reports that the female chain gang will be wearing pink T-shirts over the striped uniforms with bold letters describing messages about drinking and driving.
"I hope that everyone driving by that sees the chain gang will think twice about drinking and driving … they will end up on this chain gang if they do," Arpaio told FOX.
Can this chain gang really be a deterrent to drunk driving? Spending time in jail after a DUI conviction is bad enough, but it looks like the penalties now don't stop just there. DUI offenders at the Maricopa County jail may also feel pressured into joining this chain gang, which could mean a great deal of humiliation
Sheriff Arpaio says that the inmates will be seen in various communities this weekend in their jail garb and pink shirts. Phoenix New Times reports that Arpaio is apparently so proud of his female chain gang discouraging DUI crimes that he is posting updates on what the group is doing on his Twitter page. The tweets can be found here.

The Joseph C. Summerlin, Jr. Family Genealogy Page
|I've been dabbling in geneaological research on my family for several years, but I've never really focused as much attention on it as I should. I guess I'm not as hard-core as some, but I would definitely like to learn more about my ancestry so that I can share it with my family and pass it on to neices and nephews! My father's side of the family is Summerlin and my mother's side is Lowry...mom's side seems to be easier to follow back. For some reason the name Summerlin has been difficult for me...at least back beyond my father's father (he apparently was a man of mystery to those who knew him)! My paternal grandmother's maiden name was Norvell. My maternal grandmother's maiden name was Higgenbotham. The Summerlins in my immediate family are generally located in Virginia with some indication of moving there from North Carolina. The Lowrys seem to be from the same area or further north. I will gladly share what I have found so far and would gladly receive any help that is offered! You can reach me either by e-mail or snail-mail.

And the fact that the effing NAVY thought it was a good thing to post...
3. If you pull over to help someone with car problems, remember not to assault them!
10. Carry a whistle! If you're worried you might assault someone "accidentally" you can hand it to the person you're with so they can blow it if you do.
Bloody jumping Jeebus on a pogo stick, the idiot that put this together is SERIOUS:
The poster was not a Navy-produced document, but rather a product of the feminist blog TumblinFeminist.
and some PC-minded idiots at the Navy thought this was a good idea to post? Really? And the idiots at TF considered this a realistic thing? 'Remember not to assault them', bloody fucking hell.

Actually, I thought it was pretty funny.
Sort of a tongue-in-cheek spin on the typical ridiculous "sexual assault prevention tips" that float around.
The military is required to be PC and conduct regular training on things like sexual assault and harassment.
If they're going to be forced to do things like that, may as well have a little fun with it.
Yes...I know...according to the original story, some faceless entity named "The Navy" says that it wasn't a joke.
And I buy that like I buy Eric Holder denying that he knew about operation Gunwalker.

Author has written 7 stories for Fantasy, Love, Life, and Friendship.
Hello all! I am Samantha! I love to write fanfictions but I also write original stories. I will work on my stories as my research is done and I can get it together!
Here are just a few stories that can be expected.
To save the world
A story about three girls who find out they have special gifts and must as the title says " Save the world". They must travel the world to stop the dark dragon in his plot to kill all humans and rule the earth. Through out their journey the girls must destroy the Dark Dragons allies and make Allies of their own in the process. This is a story of magic, love, drama, and humor.
A mermaids secret wish
Sarah LouJean May is a girl who just didn't fit in. She dared to be differnt and was torchered because of that. When life gets down Sarah goes fishing. One day when she skips school to go fishing she is draged into the misty deep and finds out that she can breath. Now she must keep her new world a secret meanwhile trying to figure out who her secret admire is a human or something else.
Secret Love
I have always loved him. I always will. Even if he doesn't see me, that is ok. For love isn't about what you can take, but what you can give in return. I will love him even if he loves another. What I will not do is let him love someone who is pretending to be me.
When Autumn comes
All I could remember that day was wishing that I could see him smile once more. Just one more smile. Just one more laugh. If only I could hear him say his cute little phrase for me just once more, "Just like Autumn, change must come. Sometimes you many not like the change, but it must come"
Goddess Love
What do you do when you can't be with the one you love forever or even kiss them? What is it like to never be able to fall in love and if you do, it just ends up in tragedy? What if you got a second chance?
The Diary of a Best Friend
To be the best friend that Sarah could be. What does that mean? It can't be too hard, right? Wrong.

The Assemblies of God Theological Seminary (AGTS) will celebrate it's 41st annual Commencement on Saturday, May 3, 2014 at 10 a.m. at Central Assembly of God, Springfield, Mo. Thirty of this year's 97 graduates will be awarded doctoral degrees, making this the largest doctoral class in the seminary's history. The public is invited to attend.
AGTS will award 4 Ph.D.s, 1 Doctor of Missiology and 25 Doctor of Ministry degrees along with Master of Divinity and Master of Arts degrees to candidates from 30 states and 8 countries.
Doctoral candidates and their work will be honored during a series of public events on Friday, May 2, including a Doctor of Ministry Symposium and an Intercultural Doctoral Studies Investiture at 12:30 p.m., a reception at 1:45 and a Celebration Service at 2:15. (D.Min. project abstracts may be viewed here.)
This year is the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Assemblies of God. "There is no more fitting way to acknowledge the long strides our movement has taken since its humble beginnings than by honoring 30 doctoral candidates in this centennial year," said AGTS President Byron D. Klaus.
Dr. Stanley M. Horton, AGTS distinguished professor emeritus of Bible and theology and long-standing hero of AG theological scholarship, will be on hand during the Celebration Service to award centennial medallions to each candidate. Nearly a centenarian himself, Dr. Horton's parents were present at the inter-racial Azusa Street Revival (1906-1915) that marked the birth of the modern Pentecostal movement. Dr. Horton will turn 98 in May.
This year's commencement will highlight God's healing work in our world through four student speakers.
Graduation events will also include a golf tournament, benefiting student scholarships, on Thursday, May 1 at Millwood Golf & Racquet Club. Visit agts.edu/golf for more information and to register for the golf tournament.
