Restangular is an AngularJS service that simplifies common GET, POST, DELETE, and UPDATE requests with a minimum of client code. It's a perfect fit for any WebApp that consumes data from a RESTful API.
Try the live demo on plunkr. It uses the same example as the official Angular Javascript Project, but with Restangular!
Watch a video introduction of a talk I gave at Devoxx France about Restangular.
Restangular has several features that distinguish it from $resource:
$routeProvider.resolve and you'll get the real object injected into your controller if you want.
$resource bugs. Restangular doesn't have problem with trailing slashes, additional
: in the URL, escaping information, expecting only arrays for getting lists, etc.
Let's see a quick and short example of these features
// Restangular returns promises Restangularall'users' // GET: /users // Later in the code... // Restangular objects are self-aware and know how to make their own RESTful requests $scopeuser; // GET: /users/123/cars // You can also use your own custom methods on Restangular objects $scopeuser; // POST: /users/123/sendMessage // Chain methods together to easily build complex requests $scopeuser;// GET: /users/123/messages/123/from/123/unread
You can download this by:
bower install restangular
npm install restangular
<!-- Or use TAG number for specific version. New versions are auto deployed -->
Restangular depends on Angular and Lodash (or Underscore).
Each time, there're more Production WebApps using
Restangular. If your webapp uses it and it's not in the list, please create an issue or submit a PR:
This is all you need to start using all the basic Restangular features.
// Add Restangular as a dependency to your app angular; // Inject Restangular into your controller angular;
The Restangular service may be injected into any Controller or Directive :) Note: When adding Restangular as a dependency it is not capitalized 'restangular' But when injected into your controller it is 'Restangular'
There are 3 ways of creating a main Restangular object. The first one and most common one is by stating the main route of all requests. The second one is by stating the main route and object of all requests.
// Only stating main route Restangularall'accounts' // Stating main object Restangular // Gets a list of all of those accounts Restangular;
Now that we have our main Object let's start playing with it.
// First way of creating a Restangular object. Just saying the base URL var baseAccounts = Restangularall'accounts'; // This will query /accounts and return a promise. baseAccounts; // Does a GET to /accounts // Returns an empty array by default. Once a value is returned from the server // that array is filled with those values. So you can use this in your template $scopeaccounts = Restangularall'accounts'$object; var newAccount = name: "Gonto's account"; // POST /accounts baseAccounts; // GET to http://www.google.com/ You set the URL in this case Restangular; // GET to http://www.google.com/1 You set the URL in this case Restangular; // You can do RequestLess "connections" if you need as well // Just ONE GET to /accounts/123/buildings/456 Restangular // Just ONE GET to /accounts/123/buildings Restangular // Here we use Promises then // GET /accounts baseAccounts // Second way of creating Restangular object. URL and ID :) var account = Restangular; // GET /accounts/123?single=true $scopeaccount = account; // POST /accounts/123/messages?param=myParam with the body of name: "My Message" account
Restangular comes with defaults for all of its properties but you can configure them. So, if you don't need to configure something, there's no need to add the configuration.
You can set all these configurations in
RestangularProvider or
Restangular service to change the global configuration or you can use the withConfig method in Restangular service to create a new Restangular service with some scoped configuration. Check the section on this later.
The base URL for all calls to your API. For example if your URL for fetching accounts is http://example.com/api/v1/accounts, then your baseUrl is
/api/v1. The default baseUrl is an empty string which resolves to the same url that AngularJS is running, but you can also set an absolute url like
http://api.example.com/api/v1 if you need to set another domain.
These are the fields that you want to save from your parent resources if you need to display them. By default this is an Empty Array which will suit most cases
Use this property to control whether Restangularized elements to have a parent or not. So, for example if you get an account and then get a nested list of buildings, you may want the buildings URL to be simple
/buildings/123 instead of
/accounts/123/buildings/123. This property lets you do that.
This method accepts 1 parameter, it could be:
$http from AngularJS can receive a bunch of parameters like
transformRequest and so on. You can set all of those properties in the object sent on this setter so that they will be used in EVERY API call made by Restangular. This is very useful for caching for example. All properties that can be set can be checked here: http://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng.$http#parameters
This is a hook. After each element has been "restangularized" (Added the new methods from Restangular), the corresponding transformer will be called if it fits.
This should be used to add your own methods / functions to entities of certain types.
You can add as many element transformers as you want. The signature of this method can be one of the following:
addElementTransformer(route, transformer): Transformer is called with all elements that have been restangularized, no matter if they're collections or not.
addElementTransformer(route, isCollection, transformer): Transformer is called with all elements that have been restangularized and match the specification regarding if it's a collection or not (true | false)
This sets whether transformers will be run for local objects and not by objects returned by the server. This is by default true but can be changed to false if needed (Most people won't need this).
This is a hook. After each element has been "restangularized" (Added the new methods from Restangular), this will be called. It means that if you receive a list of objects in one call, this method will be called first for the collection and then for each element of the collection.
I favor the usage of
addElementTransformer instead of
onElemRestangularized whenever possible as the implementation is much cleaner.
This callback is a function that has 4 parameters:
This can be used together with
addRestangularMethod (Explained later) to add custom methods to an element
This is deprecated. Use addResponseInterceptor since you can add more than one.
The responseInterceptor is called after we get each response from the server. It's a function that receives this arguments:
GET which returns a list of element which will return
getList so that you can distinguish them.
buildings, etc.
Some of the use cases of the responseInterceptor are handling wrapped responses and enhancing response elements with more methods among others.
The responseInterceptor must return the restangularized data element.
This is deprecated. Use addRequestInterceptor since you can add more than one.
The requestInterceptor is called before sending any data to the server. It's a function that must return the element to be requested. This function receives the following arguments:
GET which returns a list of element which will return
getList so that you can distinguish them.
buildings, etc.
This is deprecated. Use addFullRequestInterceptor since you can add more than one.
This adds a new fullRequestInterceptor. The fullRequestInterceptor is similar to the
requestInterceptor but more powerful. It lets you change the element, the request parameters and the headers as well.
It's a function that receives the same as the
requestInterceptor plus the headers and the query parameters (in that order).
It can return an object with any (or all) of following properties:
If a property isn't returned, the one sent is used.
The errorInterceptor is called whenever there's an error. It's a function that receives the response, the deferred (for the promise) and the Restangular-response handler as parameters.
The errorInterceptor function, whenever it returns
false, prevents the promise linked to a Restangular request to be executed. All other return values (besides
false) are ignored and the promise follows the usual path, eventually reaching the success or error hooks.
The feature to prevent the promise to complete is useful whenever you need to intercept each Restangular error response for every request in your AngularJS application in a single place, increasing debugging capabilities and hooking security features in a single place.
var { var deferred = $qdefer; // Refresh access-token logic return deferredpromise;}; Restangular;
Restangular requires 7 fields for every "Restangularized" element. These are:
Also all of Restangular methods and functions are configurable through restangularFields property.
All of these fields except for
id and
selfLink are handled by Restangular, so most of the time you won't change them. You can configure the name of the property that will be binded to all of this fields by setting restangularFields property.
You can now Override HTTP Methods. You can set here the array of methods to override. All those methods will be sent as POST and Restangular will add an X-HTTP-Method-Override header with the real HTTP method we wanted to do.
For JSONP to work, a server must know how to reply with JSONP-formatted results. JSONP does not work with JSON-formatted results. The JSONP parameters passed as arguments to a script are defined by the server.
By setting the value of setJsonp to true, both
get and
getList will be performed using JSonp instead of the regular GET.
You will need to add the 'JSON_CALLBACK' string to your URLs (see $http.jsonp). You can use
setDefaultRequestParams to accomplish this:
You can set default Query parameters to be sent with every request and every method.
Additionally, if you want to configure request params per method, you can use
requestParams configuration similar to
$http. For example
RestangularProvider.requestParams.get = {single: true}.
Supported method to configure are: remove, get, post, put, common (all)
// set params for multiple methods at once Restangular; // set only for get method Restangular; // or for all supported request methods Restangular;
You can set fullResponse to true to get the whole response every time you do any request. The full response has the restangularized data in the
data field, and also has the headers and config sent. By default, it's set to false. Please note that in order for Restangular to access custom HTTP headers, your server must respond having the
Access-Control-Expose-Headers: set.
// set params for multiple methods at once Restangular;
Or set it per service
// Restangular service that uses setFullResponse app; // Let's use it in the controller app;
You can set default Headers to be sent with every request. Send format: {header_name: header_value}
// set default header "token" RestangularProvider;
If all of your requests require to send some suffix to work, you can set it here. For example, if you need to send the format like
/users/123.json you can add that
.json to the suffix using the
setRequestSuffix method
You can set this to either
true or
false. By default it's false. If set to true, then the cannonical ID from the element will be used for URL creation (in DELETE, PUT, POST, etc.). What this means is that if you change the ID of the element and then you do a put, if you set this to true, it'll use the "old" ID which was received from the server. If set to false, it'll use the new ID assigned to the element.
You can set this to
true or
false. By default it's false. If set to true, data retrieved will be returned with no embed methods from restangular.
You can set here if you want to URL Encode IDs or not. By default, it's true.
You can also access the configuration via
RestangularProvider and
Restangular via the
configuration property if you don't want to use the setters. Check it out:
RestangularconfigurationrequestSuffix = '/';
You can configure this in either the
config or the
run method. If your configurations don't need any other services, then I'd recommend you do them in the
config. If your configurations depend on other services, you can configure them in the
run using
Restangular instead of
// Here I inject the service BaseUrlCalculator which I need app;
Let's assume that for most requests you need some configuration (The global one), and for just a bunch of methods you need another configuration. In that case, you'll need to create another Restangular service with this particular configuration. This scoped configuration will inherit all defaults from the global one. Let's see how.
// Global configuration app; // Restangular service that uses Bing app; // Let's use them from a controller app;
There're some times where you want to use Restangular but you don't want to expose Restangular object anywhere.
For those cases, you can actually use the
service feature of Restangular.
Let's see how it works:
// Declare factory module; // In your controller you inject Users Users // GET to /users/2 Users // GET to /users/2 Users // POST to /users // GET to /users Users
You can also use
withHttpConfig on objects created by
var personService = Restangular;var entity = personService;
We can also use Nested RESTful resources with this:
var Cars = Restangular; Cars // GET to /users/1/cars
There are 3 sets of methods. Collections have some methods and elements have others. There are are also some common methods for all of them
These are the methods that can be called on the Restangular object.
route and the specified id.
remove sends a request with an empty object, which may cause problems with some servers or browsers. This shows how to configure RESTangular to have no payload.
get(), or when using on a nested child.
remove sends a request with an empty object, which may cause problems with some servers or browsers. This shows how to configure RESTangular to have no payload.
getList(), or when using on a nested child.
name to the operation and path specified (or current path otherwise). There's a section on how to do this later.
Let's see an example of this:
// GET /accounts/123/messages Restangular // GET /accounts/messages?param=param2 Restangularall"accounts"
All custom methods have an alias where you replace
custom by
do. For example,
customGET is equal to
doGET. Just pick whatever syntax you prefer.
Before modifying an object, we sometimes want to copy it and then modify the copied object. We can't use
angular.copy for this because it'll not change the
this bound in the functions we add to the object. In this cases, you must use
Restangular uses enhanced promises when returning. What does this mean? All promises returned now have 2 additional methods and collection promises have 3. These are the methods:
fieldName from the original promise result.
getList this will be an empty array by default. Once the array is returned from the server, this same
$object property will get filled with results from the server.
I know these explanations are quite complicated, so let's see an example :D.
var buildings = Restangularall"buildings"; // New promise after adding the new building // Now you can show in scope this newBuildings promise and it'll show all the buildings // received from server plus the new one added var newBuildings = buildings; var newBuildingsSame = buildings; // This is a promise of a number value. You can show it in the UI var lengthPromise = buildings; lengthPromise;
Since Angular 1.2, Promise unwrapping in templates has been disabled by default and will be deprecated soon.
This means that the following will cease to work:
$scopeaccounts = Restangularall'accounts';
As this was a really handy way of working with Restangular, I've made a feature similar to $resource that will enable this behavior again:
$scopeaccounts = Restangularall'accounts'$object;
$object property is a new property I've added to promises. By default, it'll be an empty array or object. Once the sever has responded with the real value, that object or array is filled with the correct response, therefore making the ng-repeat work :). Pretty neat :D
A lot of REST APIs return the URL to self of the element that you're querying. You can use that with Restangular so that you don't have to create the URLs yourself, but use the ones provided by the server.
Let's say that when doing a GET to
/people you get the following
name: "Martin" lastName: "Gontovnikas" self: link: 'http://www.example.com/people/gonto' name: "John" lastName: "Wayne" self: link: 'http://www.example.com/people/jhonny'
In this case, as you can see, the URL to each element can't be guessed so we need to use that to reference the element. Restangular supports both relative and absolute URLs :).
How do we do this with Restangular?
First, we need to configure the path for the link to self. For that, in the config we do:
Then, we can just use this :)
// Instead of using all we could also use allUrl to set a URL // Restangular.allUrl('people', 'http://www.example.com/people') Restangularall'people'
Sometimes, we have a lot of nested entities (and their IDs), but we just want the last child. In those cases, doing a request for everything to get the last child is overkill. For those cases, I've added the possibility to create URLs using the same API as creating a new Restangular object. This connections are created without making any requests. Let's see how to do this:
var restangularSpaces = Restangularall"spaces"; // This will do ONE get to /accounts/123/buildings/456/spaces restangularSpaces // This will do ONE get to /accounts/123/buildings/456/spaces/789 Restangular // POST /accounts/123/buildings/456/spaces Restangularall"spaces"; // DELETE /accounts/123/buildings/456 Restangular;
There're sometimes when you want to set a specific configuration $http configuration just for one Restangular's call. For that, you can use
withHttpConfig. You must call that method just before doing the HTTP request. Let's learn how to use it with the following example:
Restangular; $scopeaccount;
Let's assume that your API needs some custom methods to work. If that's the case, always calling customGET or customPOST for that method with all parameters is a pain in the ass. That's why every element has a
addRestangularMethod method.
This can be used together with the hook
addElementTransformer to do some neat stuff. Let's see an example to learn this:
// In your app configuration (config method) // It will transform all building elements, NOT collections RestangularProvider; RestangularProvider; // Then, later in your code you can do the following: // GET to /buildings/123/evaluate?myParam=param with headers myHeader: value // Signature for this "custom created" methods is (params, headers, elem) if it's a safe operation (GET, OPTIONS, etc.) // If it's an unsafe operation (POST, PUT, etc.), signature is (elem, params, headers). // If something is set to any of this variables, the default set in the method creation will be overridden // If nothing is set, then the defaults are sent Restangular; // GET to /buildings/123/evaluate?myParam=param with headers myHeader: specialHeaderCase Restangular; // Here the body of the POST is going to be {key: value} as POST is an unsafe operation Restangularall'users';
Create custom methods for your collection using Restangular.extendCollection(). This is an alias for:
// create methods for your collection Restangular; var accountsPromise = Restangularall'accounts'; accountsPromise;
Create custom methods for your models using Restangular.extendModel(). This is an alias for:
Restangular; var accountPromise = Restangular; accountPromise;
Errors can be checked on the second argument of the then.
You can use
defaultHeaders property for this or
$httpProvider.defaults.headers, whichever suits you better.
defaultsHeaders can be scoped with
withConfig so it's really cool.
$http can cache requests if you send the property
cache to true. You can do that for every Restangular request by using
defaultHttpFields property. This is the way:
Yes, of course. Every method in Restangular returns a promise so this can be used without any problem.
You must add a requestInterceptor for this.
So, let's assume that your data is the following:
// When getting the list, this is the response. "status":"success" "data": "data": "id":1 // More data "meta": "totalRecord":100 // When getting a single element, this is the response. "status":"success" "data": "id" : 1 // More data
In this case, you'd need to use RestangularProvider's
addResponseInterceptor. See the following:
_id not
id as the default. Therefore requests are sent to undefined routes
What you need to do is to configure the
RestangularFields and set the
id field to
_id. Let's see how:
In some cases, people have different ID name for each entity. For example, they have CustomerID for customer and EquipmentID for Equipment. If that's the case, you can override Restangular's getIdFromElem. For that, you need to do:
RestangularProviderconfiguration { // if route is customers ==> returns customerID return elem_ + "ID";}
With that, you'd get what you need :)
This can be done using the customPOST / customPUT method. Look at the following example:
Restangularall'users' ;
This basically tells the request to use the Content-Type: multipart/form-data as the header. Also formData is the body of the request, be sure to add all the params here, including the File you want to send of course. There is an issue already closed but with a lot of information from other users and @mgonto as well: GitHub - Restangular
The best option for doing CRUD operations with a list, is to actually use the "real" list, and not the promise. It makes it easy to interact with it.
Let's see an example :).
// Here we use then to resolve the promise. Restangularall'users';
When you actually get a list by doing
$scopeowners = house$object;
You're actually assigning a Promise to the owners value of the $scope. As Angular knows how to process promises, if in your view you do an ng-repeat of this $scope variable, results will be shown once the promise is resolved (Response arrived). However, changes to that promise that you do from your HTML won't be seen in the scope, as it's not a real array. It's just a promise of an array.
While the example above removes the deleted user from the collection, it also overwrites the collection object with a plain array (because of
_.without) which no longer knows about its Restangular attributes.
If want to keep the restangularized collection, remove the element by modifying the collection in place:
It won't be stripped out anymore as I've ditched
$resource :). Now you can happily put the port :).
unrestangularized element as well as the
restangularized one?
In order to get this done, you need to use the
responseExtractor. You need to set a property there that will point to the original response received. Also, you need to actually copy this response as that response is the one that's going to be
restangularized later
Alternatively, if you just want the stripped out response on any given call, you can use the .plain() method, doing something like this:
$scope { baseUrl;};
Addendum : If you want originalElement to be the original response object instead of having an original value for each key in your newResponse array, replace
newResponse[key].originalElement = angular.copy(value);
newResponse.originalElement[key] = angular.copy(value);
This is typically caused by Cross Origin Request policy. In order to enable cross domain communication and get correct response with appropriate status codes, you must have the CORS headers attached, even in error responses. If the server does not attach the CORS headers to the response then the XHR object won't parse it, thus the XHR object won't have any response body, status or any other response data inside which typically will cause your request to fail with status code 0.
This is a very good question. I could've done the code so that I don't depend on Underscore nor Lodash, but I think both libraries make your life SO much easier. They have all of the "functional" stuff like map, reduce, filter, find, etc. With these libraries, you always work with immutable stuff, you get compatibility for browsers which don't implement ECMA5 nor some of these cool methods, and they're actually quicker. So, why not use it? If you've never heard of them, by using Restangular, you could start using them. Trust me, you're never going to give them up after this!
Sometimes you may wish to cancel a request, this is how you would do it:
var canceler = $q.defer();Restangular.all('users').withHttpConfig({timeout: canceler.promise}).get();canceler.resolve(); // cancels the request
This is a little counterintuitive, so let me explain. Restangular is built on top of
$http, which takes a timeout parameter. As per the $http docs:
timeout in milliseconds, or promise that should abort the request when resolved.
Resolving the promise (canceler in this case), will cancel the request.
Restangular supports all Angular versions from 1.0.X - 1.5.X
Also, when using Restangular with version >= 1.1.4, in case you're using Restangular inside a callback not handled by Angular, you have to wrap the whole request with
$scope.apply to make it work or you need to run one extra
$digest manually. Check out https://github.com/mgonto/restangular/issues/71
Users reported that this server frameworks play real nice with Restangular, as they let you create a Nested RESTful Resources API easily:

Dane counted seven gorp bodies—which did not include the prisoner ashore.
But they were not yet satisfied with Groft and his gorp slayers.
Now even the gorp had ceased its wild struggles and hung limp in its bonds.
But he held no weapon and beneath the surface of the water a gorp lurked.
And now, following custom, he was inviting the friends and sometimes allies of the dead Paft to a gorp hunt.
Instead the gorp drew in upon itself until it resembled an unwieldy ball of indestructible armor and there it remained.
If the gorp was affected by this attack he could not tell, for both attacker and victim could no longer be seen.
Freed from the net, suspended by its sealed claws, the gorp swung back and forth from a standard set up before the high seat.
His dun cloak making a spot of darkness amid all the flashing color, he came straight to the place where the gorp swung.
They would lend the force of their arms to the defeat of all gorp they had the good fortune to meet.

Don't drop the 'entitled' whining (jimmy) teenager rant on me! Your coming across as a pompous deluded fool. Go defend R* in their forum.
And don't take my comments out context either! whether the 1 player experience offers value for money is subjective. You may think so but others may not! Why. Because they are ENTITLED to their opinion with regards to what they have spent their money on.
Teething problems are expected, yet my professional opinion on this matter is that they are too many and too serious to not be a cause for concern. Had this been a beta phase. No problem.
Comparing an online game that was 5 years in the making with 2 weeks grace and known release date with a DDOS attack that comes out of the blue is nonsense.
Rockstar hopes new GTA Online patch out today
How about you get a little perspective. I read your previous comment and disagree with every word of it. Defending R* and these issues is laughable.
in response to your points:
1. No comment.
2. Issues, glitches and quirks are understandable for a sandbox the size of GTA V and online being essentially a new thing for R*. Yet the issues I and others have encountered are not minor glitches or sandbox quirks. They are outright functionality and critical issues corrupting files. Buckling servers in this instance is a pathetic excuse as the numbers of copy's sold and where they were sold was known and the profits gained were/are not magical 'they broke records! and therefore sufficient to ensure an abundance of servers were at least rented out for day/week one. (installed and configured)
3. Nobody has or is claiming they have not received value for money, and should someone do so it is entirely subjective and their right if that's how they feel with regards to what they spend their hard earned money on.
4. Yes. Very much a first world problem. And I don't like pickles in my hamburger. And R* should have released this as a BETA.
5. Good luck.
|I'd like to ask who was drinking the bong water at R* when they came up with Yoga. That mini game fecking sucks.
R* server.
Sorry, Spekingur. I'm senior QA tester and have been testing for over ten years. Server stress, failure and bottle necks can be simulated. With regards to servers you either connect or you don't. An issue where I was sent back into the 1 player game where my player selection wheel became completely nonfunctional has nothing to do with servers, but a combination of actions. ie update > online > cant connect > single player > no selection wheel.
The test plan you refer to (document) is written by a tester(s) and should cover bandwidth and server stress. If it was not thought of as you speculate then my comment holds true as to what the hell 150+ testers were doing in these two weeks. RS making a statement to accept bugs due to the open world nature of the game is understandable, but please don't allow that to include full on functionality.
They had 5 years plus the 2 weeks including billions of our hard earned cash to get this working to a minimum at least.
Its fubar beyond belief:
The amount of bugs are a piss take. Being unable to join a server is one thing. but, experienced not being able to access the menu. Being thrown back into single player without being able to access player select. Losing my first character created. Dropping into a solo online with no race starting or anyway to initiate it. Being unable to quit out of the online solo mode and forced to switch my ps3 off, corrupting my HD. They really need to sort it out! What the fuck have these 150+ QA testers I saw in the credits been doing. These are not open world quirks or glitches but serious functionality issues.
Also with regards to the servers considering how much RS made in a couple days its not like they had no idea of demand on day one.

"Once again 60 minutes that's the way that it is in the NFL. I'm really proud of the way our team played today. We had a good second half against a good football team. As usual they fought right to the end that's a good club that Coach Smith has over there in Atlanta. They fought us hard straight to the end and fortunately we were able to make a couple more plays. They made a good example of what it takes to win in this League, and that's 60 minutes of good football. We have to do a better job of finishing out the game. We did a good job of putting ourselves in that position to win with a 17 point lead and 6 minutes to go in the game. Obviously, we could have played a little better in the end but it's good to be 4-0 and to get out of here with a win." Read
The play of your offense with over 400 yards tonight:
"We did some good things in every phase of the game. There were some good things but then there were some not so good things obviously. We have to keep working to improve." Read
How important was it to establish the run in the 2nd half:
"It's important to move the ball to score points. So whatever we need to do that. It's always good to have balance and we will do whatever we need to do to try and make that work." Read
The play of the defensive guys:
"I thought we competed well with the receivers. In the end they made a few plays, a couple of big plays in the fourth quarter. Obviously we had our trouble with the TE and the back in the first half but we did a good job on them and had to tighten up on the receivers. That's a good skilled team offensively. They have good tight ends, good backs, good receivers and a good quarterback. It's hard to get them all stopped but I thought our guys competed hard against them." Read
The play of CB Aqib Talib:
"Aqib played well for us all the way back to the spring and training camp. He played well. He played the ball well against good receivers. He tackled well. He covered well. He's done a good job for us since he has been here." Read
The play of K Steven Gostkowski not just making 30 yard Field Goals:
"With Steve it obviously made the difference in the game, part of the difference in the game I know it was a 7-point game but that was a big kick for us to make it a three score game. He's done a good job. It's a good operation. All those guys, LS Danny Aiken and P/H Ryan Allen and Steve, it's a good operation." Read

San Diego, CA (PRWEB) July 19, 2012
The ElliptiGO Project, a group of elite runners focused on using innovative training tools and techniques to improve performance, today announced another outstanding performance by masters runner, Christine Kennedy.
Kennedy, the 2011 USATF Masters Athlete of the Year, clocked a 39:30 at the Masters 10K Championships to win the W55-59 age group by more than 4 minutes. This earned her an age-graded performance of 96.23%, which was the highest in the entire race.
Age-graded scoring provides each race finisher with a percentage value that enables them to compare their performance against any other racer, regardless of age or sex. Kennedy's win in the age-graded performance scores is therefore truly indicative of how well she continues to perform year after year.
As an inaugural member of The ElliptiGO Project, Kennedy is using innovative training tools and techniques to stay healthy and continue racing at the highest levels. Her hard work and dedication is reflected in this National Championship and bodes well for the future of the Project.
About The ElliptiGO Project
The ElliptiGO Project exists to make runners faster through innovation. It is currently growing membership, adding new innovative running tools, and affiliating with other organizations that share the same goal of improving athletes' performance through innovation. The Project tests new training techniques through competition, both on the track and on the road, and reports its findings with candor. http://www.theelliptigoproject.com

Coca-Cola India has recently launched an activity to promote their new 'Brrr' campaign. The soft drink major has set up igloo shaped huts, measuring 35 feet in diameter in front of various malls across India.
Once inside the igloo, the consumer is given a glass of chilled coke. And as soon as the consumer takes the first sip of the chilled coke, his instant Brrr expression is captured by the video booth set up inside the igloo.
Vivify Enterprise is executing this activation for the beverage company.
Talking about the aim of the activation, Abhijit Datta, senior brand manager, Coca-Cola India, says, "The idea is to capture the 'Brrr' expression (the spontaneous reaction and a feeling of upliftment one derives after sipping an icy cold Coca-Cola) of a consumer."
"The idea of creating igloo huts came to our mind as we were sure that they represent extreme cold temperatures and aptly depict the 'Brrr' effect visually, " Datta adds.
The 'Brrr' activation which started this month is likely to continue till the middle of May. It is spread across 18 cities across the country -- Mumbai, Lucknow, Chennai, Chandigarh, Ahmedabad, and Gurgaon to mention a few.

Hatton Garden raid: Police find property after searching cemetery
Detectives investigating the Hatton Garden jewellery raid have recovered property after searching a cemetery.
The raid over the Easter weekend saw thieves break into the vault in London's diamond district, after using a drill to bore a hole 20in deep, 10in high and 18in wide in the vault wall.
Once inside, the thieves ransacked 73 safety deposit boxes, taking goods worth in excess of £10 million.
In a short statement confirming the recovered property, the Met said: "On October 15 officers from the Met Police Flying Squad searched a venue in north London as part of an ongoing investigation where property was recovered."
Police have declined to state what was recovered, name the location of Thursday's operation or explain how they came to search it.
The recovery comes after one of the men who admitted his part in the plot offered to tell police where his share of the haul was hidden.
Daniel Jones made the revelation in a letter to a reporter, adding it was possible the loot could be discovered by someone else if he is not allowed to disclose its location.
The 58-year-old has admitted his part in the burglary and wants to be taken out of his high security Belmarsh prison cell so he can return what he stole.
Jones wrote to Sky News reporter Martin Brunt from behind bars, saying: "I've instructed my solicitor ... to tell the police Flying Squad that I want to give back my share of (the) Hatton Garden burglary, they said it's in motion.
"I now understand that the police said that the prison Belmarsh won't release me to the police. What a load of bull.
"The police can't want it back, as I'm the only person in the world to no (know) where it is, deep down. I want to do the right thing and give it back."
He also referred to himself as a "burnt-out burglar", suggesting detectives were scared of taking him out of prison because they feared he would have a "hit-squad" to break him out.
Responding to the claims, a Scotland Yard spokesman said: "We are not prepared to discuss an ongoing investigation."
Jones and three other men pleaded guilty to conspiracy to burgle Hatton Garden Safe Deposit between April 1 and April 7 this year. They are all awaiting sentence.
Five other men deny the offence and are due to stand trial at Woolwich Crown Court next month.

Pyle: Systems are too costly, dirty
Updated 7:40 pm, Wednesday, March 12, 2014
What's the real cost of wind power? For Texans, it's more than $248 million in handouts to big business. According to the Institute for Energy Research, Texans paid that much money in 2012 so that multinational corporations could experiment with wind power on the taxpayer dime - a textbook case of corporate welfare.
The culprit is a federal program called the "Wind Production Tax Credit." It gives a 2.3 cent subsidy to wind producers per kilowatt of energy produced, with the money coming from Texans' federal taxes.
After 20 years of taking Texans' money once in their taxes and twice in their utility bills, the Wind PTC expired at the end of 2013. Now Congress is debating whether to renew this corporate cash cow.
But the evidence is mounting that these types of "green" and "clean energy" handouts are surprisingly dirty. According to a new report by CBS News, the federal government has lavished the green energy and technology industry with at least $150 billion in taxpayer money in recent years.
This deluge of federal funding has only resulted in a string of technological flops and business bankruptcies.
There's no shortage of examples. Solyndra - which went bankrupt after receiving half a billion taxpayer dollars - is already well-known. Abound Solar received $400 million in 2010, then filed for bankruptcy in 2012. Fisker Automotive took $528 million from the feds in 2009 and another $392 million in 2012, then laid off 75 percent of its workforce last April. And LG Chem took $151 million in stimulus money to build an electric car battery plant where employees were paid to do nothing.
In all of these cases, poor and middle class taxpayers came out the real losers. They paid for it once with their taxes and they will pay again with higher energy bills. The winners, though, are the millionaires and billionaires who used the taxpayers' money to experiment with new technologies and business models. Our loss has been their experiential and monetary gain - even if the companies they founded go under.
Even where it hasn't fizzled, green energy's economic impact hasn't been that bright. According to a comprehensive study recently released by a team of Spanish academics, each new "green job" costs the rest of the economy 2.2 other jobs because of the necessary subsidies. More damning is their finding that each "green" megawatt of energy destroys an average of over 5 jobs, with each solar-powered megawatt eliminating nearly 9 jobs and each wind-powered megawatt costing over 4 jobs.
These perverse trade-offs can be laid at the feet of government energy subsidies. Whether it's $150 bucks or $150 billion, the government's financial intervention distorts the economy by shifting investment from proven job creators to expensive experiments that - as Solyndra and others demonstrate - don't always pan out.
The Spanish study bears directly on America's experience because many of our country's green job initiatives are based on the Spanish model. In fact, President Barack Obama has specifically praised Spain's green jobs experiments on numerous occasions, labeling theirs a system worth emulating.
All of this information directly bears on the question of Wind PTC and Texas. This handout gives wind electricity producers a lucrative taxpayer funded subsidy of 50 to 75 percent of wind's wholesale electricity costs. Even then, electricity from new wind facilities still costs at least 30 percent more than conventionally generated electricity according to the Department of Energy.
The Wind PTC is thus a microcosm of the problems inherent in the green energy industry. Like other taxpayer-funded "green" initiatives, renewing it would only worsen the negative effects that such subsidies have already had on job creation and economic growth, while enabling green job billionaires to continue their experiments with Texans' money.
There's nothing clean about perpetuating this system.
Thomas Pyle is president of the American Energy Alliance.

National Safety Council Award granted to Toyota Industrial Equipment Mfg
Toyota Industrial Equipment Mfg., Inc. was awarded the National Safety Council's Occupational Excellence Achievement Award
Toyota Industrial Equipment Mfg., Inc. (TIEM), manufacturer of lift truck in the U.S., awarded the Occupational Excellence Achievement Award by the National Safety Council.
The Occupational Excellence Achievement Award is given to companies that have a lost time injury rate of less than 50 percent of companies in the same business classification. The National Safety Council tracks data in accordance with the federal OSHA calendar year standard. During the last calendar year, TIEM achieved a lost-time incident rate less than 7 percent of the average rate in the same business classification.
"Every associate, manager and executive at TIEM has safety as their top priority," said TIEM's Environmental, Health and Safety Manager Dixon Churchill. "When associates know their managers truly care for their health and safety, it creates an environment where everyone is focused on reaching the company's business goals. With TIEM's focus on safety, we see reduced absenteeism, lower turnover rates, higher productivity and better quality products."
Toyota's standard of manufacturing excellence, which emphasizes safety and quality, is reinforced daily with all associates and management teams. As part of the program, TIEM works to incorporate safety awareness and risk reduction into all plant activities associated with the manufacture of Toyota lift trucks and replacement parts for industrial lift trucks and tow tractors, along with the assembly of motor vehicle parts and accessories.

Annual Salary Survey
Before the calendar turned, 2016 already had the makings of a pivotal year for manufacturing, and for the world.
There were the big events for the year, including the United States as Partner Country at Hannover Messe in April and the 2016 International Manufacturing Technology Show in Chicago in September. There's also the matter of the U.S. presidential elections in November, which promise to shape policy in manufacturing for years to come.
But the year started with global economic turmoil, as a slowdown in Chinese manufacturing triggered a worldwide stock hiccup that sent values plummeting. The continued plunge in world oil prices has resulted in a slowdown in exploration and, by extension, the manufacture of exploration equipment.

Opinions/desires should not even be posted in this thread. We share your frustration, RLM, in trying to find the real spoilers here.Originally Posted by RealityLovesMe;2947171;
"It's like déjà vu all over again" as Yogi Berra would say. This is cycle nine all over again as the two strongest models - Lisa and Heather where eliminated. Lauren is gone and Kata is next to go???
I'll bet the farm that Tyra will pull out the no personality card. It's no secret that Tyra doesn't like her. In Lauren's ANTM exit interview, she commented that Tyra didn't like her.
Since when do models need a personality? They walk down a runway, show the garment off, turn around and walk back. The way Tyra acts, models do cartwheels down the runway.
Kata doesn't need to win, she got enough exposure. I hope she unloads in her exit interviews.
It's really sad Katarzyna is gone...
I have a feeling either Anya and Fatima will win...
Please let it be Anya!!!
One of the most overrated and underrated contestants of all time. She never stepped it up a knotch IMO and that haircut made her look pedestrian. Tyra hates Ivy League girls. Poor Duckiies.

If Kata is eliminated, then that leaves Whitney and Fatima as the most logical choices to win.
Sorry Anya fans, but there is no way in hell she is going to win for obvious reasons - she's too flaky. I hope she doesn't win, because she's better off modeling in the real world. However, her walk needs work.
Ask any of the panel members off the record what they think of Dom and I'll bet it will be all negative. She's too harsh, too draggish and the latest version of Photoshop wouldn't help her.
I really think Whitney has it in the bag, because she has the perfect face for Covergirl. With the exception of Mollie Sue, she has the most amazing bone structure. If she could tone down the Miss America act, her MLAACG commercial will be believable. As Fatima, we all ready had a black winner...

Mikhail Naganov has written a handy post for engineers who are stressing out about interviewing. He's spot-on when he says:
"what are the staffing needs in smart companies? They want people that can tackle complex problems in new problem areas. They want people that are responsible and passionate about their work. And, of course, they want people that can explain their solutions to colleagues."
We're going to grill you when you come through, but it's not like we expect you to solve all of our problems correctly – if you do that, expect an offer before you leave (unless you're a jerk – we have a policy against hiring those…)
One more resource I'd point you at (hat tip to Mikhail) – Steve Yegge's poston interviewing at Google. Worth a gander or two… That said, very funny counterpoint to Steve's raving about Google culture can be found here (hat to William Wechtenhiser for that one).

I had a very LLLOOOOOOOOOOOOONNGGG and TIRING day at school earlier. My legs hurt, my head aches, and my hands shake because of tiredness and stress. This week is bound to be a stressful one because it'll be the integration and initiation week for the freshmen students along with the org week, and it meant setting up the booth for my org. Aside form the tremendous extra curricular activities, I also have this thesis assignment and tons of school work to finish, so much for senior year. Well, at least a year from now I will have more freedom and money to buy the things I want. huh. *bold*SACRIFICE..
OKay enough with my day lets go on with my outfit, I got this vest from Thailand back when I was in high school and yes this is the first time that I have finally used it. I just though that instead of wearing a bolero why not this.
Then the dress.. well I decided to wear a dress since I knew it would be very hot today and yes I was right, it was fudging hot.
Its like the sun is screaming I will kill and melt you with my heat. uh.
Oh well, I know this will be a very tiring week for me, but Im kind of sure it would be fast, So much to do so little time… huh.
See you again CHICtopians. Have a nice week ahead!
the dress may seem a bit gray here but believe me its green :)
