About this Book
In industry very few metals are used in their pure form; the majority are employed as a combination of a metal with other metals, nonmetals or metalloids. In this way some specific properties are improved, making the alloy more attractive than the pure metal. The present work comprises essential information on alloys in one compact volume.
Classification, properties, preparation, applications, and economic aspects are discussed for alloy steels, primary-metal alloys, light-metal alloys, and some other alloy systems.
The work is based on more than 30 articles from Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry and represents the effort of over 60 specialists. It supplies hundreds of top-quality illustrations, diagrams, and charts and provides hand-picked references for further study. An introductory overview of the subject is provided by the editor.
The book is a handy yet authoritative reference work for the practicing metallurgist, but also for physical metallurgists, engineers and scientists in industry.

Confidence And Belief Not Dented
Paul Lambert has said there has been no adverse reaction in the dressing room following the loss to Arsenal today.
Speaking to the Official Site following the 2-1 loss, Lambert described the defeat as being 'harsh' especially as he said he doesn't have to pick the players up after the game because their performance levels were so high.
'The belief is there, we have been playing well for a number of weeks. We have been beaten today, but with the performance, we will take great heart from it. The team were excellent against Arsenal, I don't think we deserved to get beat. We looked a threat throughout the whole game. The way the lads played, I can't fault them.'
Not really helping to put points on the board is it though. Five shots in all, only three on target. Still remains an issue for us doesn't it.
If the performances stay surely we should get what we deserve eventually, but it seems a recurring issue and has been for too long.

Writer Jose Molina, executive producer Tim Bener plus cast members Alan Tudyk, Nathan Fillion, Summer Glau, Sean Maher, Adam Baldwin and creator Joss Whedon gathered together in one of the most difficult panels of any to get into at Comic-Con – the Firefly 10th Anniversay Reunion.
Thousands of fans were lined up inside and weren't able to make it inside. Since then, those same fans have undoubtedly scoured the web for recaps of the panel, but now you can watch the entire 52 minute panel discussion as well as the press conference thanks to Things From Another World and The Cinema Source.
Highlights include Fillion talking about how Whedon gave him a chance when no one else did, why Whedon created the show, Maher's favorite episode, Whedon on casting Glau in the role of River and a conclusion to the panel that had Fillion and Whedon in tears.
There's a couple clips mentioned, but per Comic-Con rules, recording is prohibited, thus the video edits past those moments.

"Once Valentine's Day comes, the worst of winter is over."
That's something Dad would always say in the middle of those cold, snowy, bitter Chicago winters, when we kids would complain about the cold air on cloudless days and the slushy snow that froze again into small, dangerously slippery peaks on the sidewalks.
"The worst of winter is over."
I was never a die-hard fan of winter. In fact, the only part of the season I like is the first good snowfall, Christmas vacation, and the way the snow sparkles like tiny diamonds under city street lights in the blackest of nights. The rest, I can leave: dirty, slushy streets, bitter cold air, and short days.
I was thinking about a trip I made to the Chicago Botanical Garden one early autumn day, and I found a nice picture I took of one of the waterfalls there.
It took away my winter doldrums today, and I remembered that here it is, almost Valentine's Day, and the month is just about half over.
Spring is approaching!

From OpenWetWare
Quantitative PCR (Q-PCR or qPCR) is used to quantify starting amounts of nucleic acid template. In quantitative PCR, the DNA amounts can be measured either at the end of the PCR step (end-point assay) or during the PCR step (real-time PCR). Today real-time PCR is more commonly used because it can be more precise.
Frequently, quantitative PCR is used to measure RNA levels (although it can also be used to measure DNA levels). Isolated RNA is reverse transcribed into cDNA. Then quantitative PCR is run on the cDNA sample. This sub-technique is called quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) or even longer names.

What does halley mean?
Definitions for halleyˈhæl i or, sometimes, ˈheɪ li
Here are all the possible meanings and translations of the word halley.
Princeton's WordNet
Halley, Edmond Halley, Edmund Halley(noun)
English astronomer who used Newton's laws of motion to predict the period of a comet (1656-1742)
Halley is a lunar impact crater that is intruding into the southern wall of the walled plain Hipparchus. To the southwest of Halley is the large crater Albategnius, and due east lies the slightly smaller Hind. On the 1645 map by Michael van Langren, the crater is called Gansii, for the gansa of Francis Godwin's The Man in the Moone. The rim of Halley is somewhat worn, and a scar in the lunar surface passes through the western rim, forming a valley that runs to the south-southeast, near the rim of Albategnius. The interior floor of Halley is relatively flat.

By far the most popular tool that I published is GmailSync which was also features on Lifehacker. But as I get busier in other projects, it is getting difficult to put more effort into it. Its been a while since I put the last update so I've decided to upload the sources hoping that I can find someone to lead on this.
You can download the binaries and check out the sources from the following url. As the source code is not the best I've written so I'm willing to work with anyone who is interested.

Just uploaded the latest release of SequenceViz which now includes the Reflector plugin with the WPF renderer.
Wed, 24 Sep 2008 18:57:00 GMT
Until now, SequenceViz uses the GnuPlot tool to generate the SVG file that is then rendered in the IE control embedded in the application. Although this worked to prove the concept but there were problems with rendering large diagrams and security issues in Vista. Now thanks to Meile Zetstra who provided the WPF implementation for the diagram viewer I have released a new version with this functionality.
Hope you'll like this release and as always, provide your comments and suggestions to improve the application.
Sun, 10 Aug 2008 21:01:00 GMT
I managed to spend some time on SequenceViz this weekend and added quick search functionality. Because the diagrams are not linkable so it is difficult to navigate between methods and types. One thing that could help now is to search for the type or method that you'd like to navigate to and it will take you to the first result.
As always, please enter your comments or suggestions here.
Mon, 21 Jul 2008 19:23:00 GMTAlthough there is not much in this project yet but I think there are few things that can be improved before moving ahead. Moving castle configuration from the App.config file to its own file: This is to remove the noise in the main application configuration file and it is as simple as extracting the castle configuration items into another file and passing that file name in the WindsorContainer constructor. Abstract IOC container: It is a good idea to abstract dependencies and therefore the reason of DI containers. But what about the DI container itself. One way to do this is to abstract it behind a separate class IOC.cs Moving the engine implementation into a separate namespace. Using Hudson as a Continuous Tool: I have used CC.NET before and I remember that it wasn't a smooth setup. So for this project, I've decided to try Hudson. Hudson is built on Java but it is extremely easy to setup and the .NET plugins for MsBuild, Nant, Nunit and support for running batch files makes it a viable alternate to CC.NET. I found an excellent tutorial (http://redsolo.blogspot.com/2008/04/guide-to-building-net-projects-using.html) on setting up Hudson for .NET projects and believe me, it just works. Once I completed the setup, the hudson dashboard looks like this. I've also checked in the configuration file that I used for this project. Source: http://code.google.com/p/code-store/ Conclusion: In this post, I've done some small refactoring on the project structure and then used Hudson as a CI tool. In the next post, I'll start putting in more functionality into the project.[...]
Fri, 18 Jul 2008 21:38:00 GMTThis is the third part of the series on building CodeStore. In this blog post, I'll finish off the first user story which was 1) As a customer, I want to query the Assembly data in the database so that I can get metrics about the assembly. The story is further decomposed into two tasks: a) Read Assembly Data b) Store Assembly Data in SQLite using Nhibernate. We start with completing the unit test for AssemblyDataRepository. If you remember in Part II that I changed the Nhibernate integration to use Castle Nhibernate repository and therefore passing in the ISessionManager to the repository classes. So, to test AssemblyDataRepository I'm going to mock ISessionManager to test the behaviour of the method. As this project is about learning so I've decided to use Moq (http://code.google.com/p/moq/) as the mocking container. Moq uses lambdas to set expectations which takes some practice to get used to. You can read more about Moq on Daniel Cazzulino blog (http://www.clariusconsulting.net/blogs/kzu/). So we start with a test for adding assembly data using the repository. It uses the same test flow as other testing (mocking) frameworks. Setup data Setup mocks, expectations Run SUT Verity the expectations Once the test is passed, we can check off the second task of the story. I can write few more tests but let's not worry about that for now. The next thing to look into is actually parsing the assembly and extracting the required information from assembly metadata. To read IL, I'm going to use Cecil which can be downloaded from http://www.mono-project.com/Cecil. The initial model for code analysis engine looks like this. (Please note that the following diagram is the snapshot taken at the end of this blog post) I started with CodeAnalysisEngine whose job is to ask the CodeAssemblyLoader to load the assembly and then pass it to CodeAssemblyParser to do the actual information extraction. Testing CodeAnalysisEngine: The first two statements create the mock objects to use in the actual call. The next line sets the expectation to load the provided assembly file. The implementation of the SUT: In the next test, I added the assembly parser in the constructor which prompts a change in the first test to take in another argument. And the implementation now calls the Parse method on the assembly parser. The next step is to unit test the CodeAssemblyLoader. This class is responsible for loading the assembly file using Cecil, so the test expects a call to Cecil's AssemblyFactory.GetAssembly method. Unfortunately AssemblyFactory.GetAssembly is a static call which makes it impossible to test. If it is Ruby then I can easily mock it but that's another thing :). And, here is the implementation of CodeAssemblyLoader class Testing CodeAssemblyParser is also not easy because of the same AssemblyFactory issue so I'm going to load the actual assembly but mock the repository to expect the add method. Line no. 17 is loading the actual assembly. Then I mocked the repository and set it to the assembly parser. In the end, I set the expectation and call the method to verify. The Parse method internally calls the AddAssemblyData method with the assembly definition. So the unit tests are passing, I still need to implement the dependency injection configuration to run the application. Setting up Castle configuration for dependency injection: There are two different dependencies which we need to resolve here. First, CodeAnalysisEngine depends on the CodeAssemblyLoader and CodeAssemblyParser which it takes in as constructor arguments. Second, to resolve the dependency in assembly parser for assembly data reposi[...]
Thu, 17 Jul 2008 21:28:00 GMTSo, in the last post, I started creating a new application using TreeSurgeon and added Castle Windsor and log4net support. In this post, I'm going to describe how I added the Nhibernate support and the Castle Nhibernate facility. User Stories: Because CodeStore is about storing metrics about an Assembly therefore I'm going to start by storing the assembly information. Therefore the first user story is: 1) As a customer, I want to query the Assembly data in the database so that I can get metrics about the assembly. After breaking the story into tasks, we have: a) Read Assembly Data b) Store Assembly Data in SQLite using Nhibernate. Although we can start with any task, but in this scenario I'll go with the second task which is about setting up Nhibernate to store data in the SQLite database. Pre-Requisites: There are few things we need to download and setup before start coding. Download SQLite ADO.NET Database Provider (http://sqlite.phxsoftware.com/). The good thing about this provider is that it embeds the sqlite database engine so you don't need any more dependencies. Download SQLIte Database Browser to manage the database (http://sqlitebrowser.sourceforge.net/) but you can also use the native sqlite engine to manage the database from console. Download NHibernate. Once we have the required dependencies, we can start by creating a new datastore. SQLite Database Browser allows you to create a new database but you'll have to create a temporary table so that it can save it in the file. Then I added a new class AssemblyData in our Core.Domain namespace. Once all the fields are defined, I generated all the properties using Resharper (Alt+Ins) It seems that Resharper doesn't generate the auto properties so you'll have to fix it (Ctrl + Enter). Or you can just type the auto properties without any help which may be the quickest option :). The next step is to create the nhibernate mappings file. When editing the mapping file, it is much better to add the nhibernate mappings schema to get intellisense in the IDE. The complete mapping file looks like this. The build action should be set to embedded resource.
Wed, 16 Jul 2008 21:27:00 GMTWhat is CodeStore? The idea behind CodeStore is to extract information about .NET assembly and store it in a database. One we have the data, we should be able to run standard SQL queries on the data store. Although, I'm planning to develop a WPF project to show some visualisation but let's see how it'll go. So why CodeStore? I needed a pet project as it's been some time from my last one. And I get more into Ruby and Java, this gives me an excuse to keep up my .NET skills. This is also an experiment to maintain a running project diary on this blog. Tools to use: Nhibernate: data access Castle Windsor: application plumbingLog4Net: logging (link) ... And many more Setup: I started with setting up our development environment and one thing that proved very useful to me in the past is TreeSurgeon (http://www.codeplex.com/treesurgeon). TreeSurgeon is an excellent tool to generate your development tree. It definitely saved a lot of time at the start of the project. Once the solution is generated, we can quickly check if the build is working. Code check-in: Then I created a project on google project hosting which is available at http://code.google.com/p/code-store/. I used TortoiseSVN (http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/) to import the project and AnkhSVN (http://ankhsvn.open.collab.net/) for Visual Studio integration. To ignore certain files, I've also setup the following pattern into TortoiseSVN global ignore pattern. (TortoiseSVN->Settings->General) bin */bin obj */obj *.suo _ReSharper.* *.resharper *.resharper.user *.user Writing code: Now we can start plugging in Castle Windsor and setup the configuration to inject a simple class. To do so, I added the three castle dependencies into the CodeStoreConsole project. And then using the following code inside Main() to resolve CodeAssemblyLoader. var container = new WindsorContainer(new XmlInterpreter()) var assemblyLoader = container.Resolve

The best way to learn something is to develop an application with it. So when it comes to Rails, I decided [*] to develop a clone of TinyUrl.
Here is the screen shot of the website. The source code is hosted at google project hosting and you can find the summary of the development here.
[*] The suggestion to develop this as a starting point came via Adnan Masood who is running LinkCutter.
Thu, 27 Mar 2008 18:20:00 GMTOnce in a while; when I try to remember something that I read in some book some time ago, I don't usually succeed in that and then I have to start from scratch which is like DRY. So, I'm trying to do something new here by posting anything interested and useful that I read in a book. This is like a customized index to the book. The following notes are from a book titled "Practical Rails Projects". In my quest to learn as much languages as I can, I found it refreshing to learn about rails and ruby. There are a number of things from Rails that I'd like to see tightly integrated with ASP.NET. With more dynamic features in C#, ASP.NET MVC, MonoRail and SubSonic, I'm sure it will be fun again to develop with .NET :). A little summary of the book. Pratical Rails Projects covers a niche area of learning. While you get to learn about the basics of Ruby and Rails in "Agile Web Development with Rails" and get in depth with "The Rails Way", you still need to learn how to effectively apply the technology on a real-life project. While many of the projects built in the book are not real-life examples but they all have the potential. Anyway, you get the idea, right? So here are the notes: Chapter 1: About installing Rails, Setting up a project so skipping it.

Wed, 09 Jan 2008 03:01:00 GMTSummary: A simple example using OTP.NET to connect a .NET node to an erlang node. I have decided to write this after reading the article on "Integrating Java and Erlang" on ServerSide.com so I highly recommend that you read that article before continuing here as there are many things which are already described there which I'm not going to repeat. OTP.NET is a port to the Jinterface that the author used in the serverside article. Here, I'll use the same process to integrate erlang code with a C# application. [I found OTP.NET while browsing through the Jungerl code repository. Jungerl contains miscellanous utilities for erlang programmers] The source code for the erlang mathserver application is also listed here. I've changed it to do multiplcation instead of addition and made it simpler by removing the send/receive code. File: Mathserver.erl -module(mathserver). -compile(export_all). multiply(First, Second) -> First * Second. Now, you can try this code in an erlang shell to see if it is working (1) >> werl.exe -sname servernode -setcookie cookie (2) (servernode@apollo)3> c(mathserver). {ok,mathserver} (3) (servernode@apollo)7> mathserver:multiply(10, 3). 30 (1) starts an erlang shell in a window using servernode as the short node name. The cookie is also required for security and you can see how we will use it in the client. (2) & (3) we then compile our application and call the exposed method to get the result back. Before starting to write a C# Sharp application, we can quickly start another erlang shell to see if we can connect to our server node from a new node. >> werl.exe -sname clientnode -setcookie cookie >> (clientnode@apollo)3> rpc:call(servernode@apollo, mathserver, multiply, [10, 2]). 20 Once we are confident that the erlang application is working, we can close the client node shell and start devenv.exe and a new project . The first thing we need to do is to include the reference to the OTP.dll file. You can either compile it yourself by downloading the source code from jungerl[sourceforge] or just download the sample application(sample download link). Please note that I've only included the dll in the sample and not the full source code. Now you can add the following code to the main method.using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Text; using Otp; namespace ErsharpClient { class Program { static void Main(string[] a) { OtpSelf cNode = new OtpSelf("clientnode", "cookie"); OtpPeer sNode = new OtpPeer("servernode@apollo"); OtpConnection connection = cNode.connect(sNode); Otp.Erlang.Object[] args = new Otp.Erlang.Object[] { new Otp.Erlang.Long(1), new Otp.Erlang.Long(4) }; connection.sendRPC("mathserver", "multiply", args); Otp.Erlang.Long sum = (Otp.Erlang.Long)connection.receiveRPC(); Console.WriteLine("Return Value:" + sum.ToString()); } } } This is exactly similar to the code described in the article therefore I'm not going to duplicate that information. Download Sample Application Other Links: [ServerSide Article] http://www.theserverside.com/tt/articles/article.tss?l=IntegratingJavaandErlang [JInterface] http://www.erlang.org/doc/apps/jinterface/index.html [OTP.NET Announcement] http://www.erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-questions/2004-May/012313.html [Jungerl] http://jungerl.sourceforge.net/ [OTP.NET] http://jungerl.cvs.sourceforge.n[...]

Kobe Bryant jumps off 40-foot high dive into pool in debut Vine (Video)
As recently as last August, Kobe Bryant remained resistant to the draw of Twitter and Instagram for social networking and marketing purposes, preferring to limit his online presence to his very popular and self-maintained Facebook page. The Los Angeles Lakers superstar has changed his tune quite a bit over these past 12 months, though, rejoining Twitter in January and becoming quite active on the service, and launched an Instagram account in April to better document his recovery from Achilles tendon surgery (and, also, sometimes, to get emotional).
Based on how well Bryant's social media expansion has gone — he's now up to more than 3.3 million followers on Twitter and nearly 1.5 million on Instagram — it seems only natural that he'd be interested in taking Vine, Twitter's six-second looped video sharing service, for a spin. (It's even less surprising considering his decision came after visiting Twitter's offices.) The only question was: What would Bryant do for his maiden Vine voyage? We knew it wasn't going to include talking cats or twerking, but beyond that, everything seemed up for grabs.
Well, late Thursday night, we found out:
So that makes Kobe the second Laker legend to take up high-diving during the summer months, right? Next time, Mamba, at least throw some kind of flip in there, or else you're never going to stop hearing about it from Kareem at the next club meeting.
Then again, maybe Bryant decided to stick with the straight-up pencil from a 40-foot board because, y'know, he's four months from having surgery to repair a torn left Achilles tendon. I'm sure the fact that there wasn't any particular derring-do on the dive is calming the nerves of Lakers fans still mentally preparing for the Nick Young/Wesley Johnson/Jodie Meeks wing troika in the event that Kobe's rehab isn't shattering timetables quite that much.
Personally, I don't think we'll know that Kobe's really ready to resume full-fledged basketball activity until we see him nail a Triple Lindy. That's when you'll know he's got his bounce back. Might be too long for Vine, though; he could have to switch to Instagram for that one.

July 4th, 2004 – by: alygally
Students were lodged at the Citadines Apart'hotel, Place d'Italie (13th Arrondissement).
As for Place d'Italie itself...it's an interesting neighborhood. Unfortunately, it's in the extreme south-east of town and is therefore not really close to many main attractions. The Place d'Italie Métro stop is actually a rather large hub, connecting with lines 5, 6 and 7. That summer, however, one of the lines (I can't remember exactly which one) was closed for repairs, making it extremely difficult to get anywhere directly west of us, as we had to go north or south and then over to get anywhere. Overall, though, the 13th is a pleasant neighborhood. It's very quiet and residentially-oriented; if that's what you're looking for, it's a great location. =)

A home's curb appeal impacts its first impression- a good first impression is likely to increase the chances of a second meeting. Buyers do not want to be bothered with homes that don't dazzle them from the start. Only homes that invite, entice and attract with curb appeal are likely to get a second look. Encourage home owners to make their home's curb appeal a main priority with these tips:
• Keep the lawn manicured
• Trim bushes, shrubs and tree branches that may be covering pathways
• Paint the front door and accent it with a wreath or other item
• Add front-door accents, such as plants or a door mat, to create a welcoming entryway
• Replace old hardware if outdated or dingy
• Install outdoor lighting (if not installed already)
• Clean outside windows and gutters

Albanian international striker Besart Berisha actually began life in a town called Prestina, the largest city in the Kosovo region of former Yugoslavia.
Born on 29 July 1985 in Kosovo, the 26-year-old striker has had to surmount a number of hurdles and daunting setbacks en route to establishing a professional career in the game of football.
At just seven years of age, he and his family had to flee the war with Albania and ended up in Germany, initially finding accommodation at a refugees' centre in Berlin. Many of Besart's friends and relatives were not so lucky and ended up as one of the many casualties from the growing explosion of Balkan conflicts and atrocities around that time.
Having learned little more than how to kick a football around a dusty camp site, football provided a vital emotional outlet for the young Berisha and he was good at it too.
It was clear the young striker bristled with talent, and the breakthrough came with Tennis Borussia Berlin Football Club, where he finished leading scorer in the U-19 Bundesliga in 2004 with 20 goals from 26 appearances.
A number of Bundesliga clubs scouts took notice of the achievement and he signed his first professional football contract with Hamburger SV.
Berisha may have been the very proud owner of a professional contract with Hamburg, but he still wasn't a German citizen or even a legal resident of the country.
In normal circumstances, he and his family would have been deported out of Germany, but because of his mother's illness and being refugees from war torn Kosovo, his family was given a temporary reprieve and permission to stay in the short term.
In order to qualify for an official residence permit, Berisha had to leave Hamburg and decided to return to Pristina and apply for Serbian citizenship. But following the war, Kosovo was in ruins, government order was not yet restored and the process was fraught with delays and corruption.
Besart eventually returned to Germany and was granted a one-year residency permit and the chance to play for Hamburg. The lengthy absence and confinement had caused him to miss the pre-season and the club decided to assign him to the Hamburg SV reserves who played in the German third division north.
His bad luck didn't end there, his restricted residency terms meant he was not even eligible to appear for the Hamburg second team, so they had to loan him out to Danish top flight outfit Aalborg BK for the second half of the 2004-5 season. He then played for Aalborg's rivals AC Horsens in 2005-6. The striker gained valuable experience and match practice with both clubs.
"We played with a single striker in Horsens, and I learnt to look after myself," Berisha recalls. His 11 goals helped the club avoid relegation, before he returned to Hamburg SV at the start of the 2005-06 season and eventually took up a long-awaited place in the first-team squad. Finally Besart was able to play in the Bundesliga for Hamburg.
Besart Berisha had already won some of the toughest battle of his life and he was now ready for the breakthrough on the field of play and his childhood in war-torn Kosovo.
Although born in Kosovo and having been a part of the war against Albania and the subsequent Kosovan civil war, Besart Berisha becomes an Albanian citizenship in September 2006, qualifying through his ancestral ties.
Berisha manages to play just 11 games for the Hamburg first team scoring only two goals before he gets a surprise call up to the Albanian national team – his life goes almost the full circle back to the land of his ancestors.
He played his first game for Albania on 11 October 2006 against the Netherlands. He scored his first international goal for Albania on 25 May 2007, during a friendly match with England B played at Turf Moor, in Burnley, England, where he showed impressive form and was the Albanian man of the match.
Berisha's performance against England B at Burnley at only 22 years of age impressed the English scouts so much that he joined the Clarets in a £375,000 switch from German side Hamburg SV.
But the bad luck followed him and a serious knee injury in an Albanian friendly match in the USA before the season even started ended his first year at Burnley on the sidelines in crutches. In the two years at Burnley he didn't play a single first team game and was loaned out to Rosenborg and Horsens again, where in 21 appearances, he scored 11 goals.
On 5 August 2009, Berisha completed a move back to Germany, joining second division Bundesliga side Arminia Bielefeld where he made 28 appearances in two seasons scoring just two goals.
In the meantime Besart was recalled to the Albanian national team and has made 17 appearances and scored two goals for them thus far.
One of Besart's team mates at Bielefeld and good friend was Socceroo Dario Vidosic and that's the Brisbane Roar connection. Dario's dad Rado of course, is the Brisbane Roar's assistant coach and was put on to Besart by his son Dario.
Young Vidosic could see the enormous talent in Berisha and realised that it was only bad luck and untimely injuries that were stopping Besart from becoming a star striker in the Bundesliga. And the asking price was good value if he was to realise that potential and stay injury free.
On 16 August 2011, Brisbane Roar manager Ange Postecoglou announced that Berisha has agreed a one year deal with the 2010–11 A-League champions.
Berisha has already made a big mark on the A-League and scored his first goal for Brisbane in Round 2 against Sydney FC. Berisha then starred with four goals in a 7-1 thrashing against Adelaide United and ironically against his old team mate Dario in Round 4. He's currently the leading goal scorer in the A-league for 2011.
He's also a very good striker and is providing the Roar and the A-League with the sort of goal scoring entertainment that he has always wanted to give the fans.
Editor's note: This piece has been updated following information provided by Brisbane Roar.

I think DS and others have really made a good point about the weight of the parquet, is there any way that you might use a Formica for the top ? I know it's not wood but it comes in wood patterns.

THE British Bloodstock Agency, the Aim-listed racehorse dealer, lost its chairman, non-executive directors, financial adviser and broker yesterday after the main shareholders rejected a recommended bid to return the business to private hands.
Sir Stanley Clarke, who has a 15pc stake in the company, led the opposition to a plan which would have seen the group's two businesses sold to management teams for £3.6m. After a stormy three-and-a-half hour meeting at the company's Newmarket offices, shareholders voted by a 2-to-1 margin to reject an offer supported by the board and recommended by Cazenove, the company's advisers and brokers since the BBA went public in 1984.
Major Christo Philipson, chairman, Major General Guy Watkins, former chief executive of the Hong Kong Jockey Club, and Miss Kirsten Rausing, a leading owner-breeder, resigned as non-executive directors. Cazenove also gave notice it would be stepping down. "The main reason the major shareholders rejected the offer is that they did not believe that the money on the table was enough," Joss Collins, a director, said afterwards. However, there were warnings that other key figures are set to quit and thereby devastate the English part of the business.
David Minton, the country's leading National Hunt bloodstock agent, was believed to be considering his position as a director along with James Beazley, the managing director and finance director, and Charles Hamilton, a director who helped put together the bid for the BBA. Mr Hamilton said: "It was an incomprehensible decision. The offer struck a balance between the interests of the business and the shareholders."
One insider said: "It is a nightmare and everyone is shell-shocked. There is a danger the company will disintegrate as they lose National Hunt clients and the bloodstock insurance side of the business, which is the most profitable part." Simon Hayes, who attempted unsuccessfully to oust Major Philipson and Mr Beazley last June, is expected to become a full-time executive director. Shares closed down 11/2 at 90p.

Some parties appeal spill settlement ruling
Published 12:31 am, Saturday, January 26, 2013
Some fishermen, businesses and property owners affected by the 2010 Gulf of Mexico oil spill have appealed a federal judge's ruling approving a multibillion-dollar class action settlement that BP reached with a panel of lawyers assigned to steer the hundreds of suits filed over the disaster.
At least eight groups of victims have filed appeals in the last two weeks with the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans. Lack of fairness and due process are among the claims raised in the appeals.
Legal experts had said appeals of U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier's ruling were a virtual certainty.
The 5th Circuit has not indicated when it will consider the appeals.
Last month, Barbier approved the portion of the settlement that dealt with economic and property damages. Earlier this month, he approved the medical benefits portion of the settlement.
Thousands of claimants have agreed to accept the deal, and BP has estimated that it will pay out $7.8 billion or economic, property and health claims - although the agreement BP reached with lawyers for plaintiffs last year does not have a cap on damages.
Eleven workers were killed when an undersea well owned by BP blew out on April 20, 2010, and caused an explosion on the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig off Louisiana.
BP already has spent or committed tens of billions of dollars on cleanup costs and compensating victims. It is set to plead guilty on Tuesday to criminal charges, including manslaughter and obstruction of Congress. BP has agreed to pay a $4 billion criminal penalty.

Purchase and delivery from Wardow was easy with luggage taking approximately 10 days to arrive in Australia. Now in use on its initial international trip, so far so good. I like the water resistant zipper, internally the finish could be improved however base on price performance it is a "good buy". The only problem I see is that there is no local Titan service support.

Therese's personal experience and her heart-centric approach to understanding grief are truly inspirational." —Howard Martin, executive vice president, HeartMath, co-author of The Heart Math Solution.

ABOUT THE GIFTS of GRIEF: ISBN 978-1-938289-09-5; Retail Price: $16.95 Finalist in the USA Best Book Awards in Non-Fictiion, 2013.
The death of a loved one, a financial catastrophe, a debilitating illness of the ending of a marriage. In the dark moments that follow these losses, life can seem hopeless and unbearable. Author Therese Tappouni knows this journey all too well. After suffering the devastating loss of her eleven-year-old son, she ultimately came to the realization that it is possible to not only heal from grief, but also find gifts from the deepest places of despair.
The Gifts of Grief: Finding Light in the Darkness of Loss explores the grieving process and examines new ways to heal from the inside out.

Complete with guided meditations and journaling exercises, this book offers a compassionate path from loss and emptiness into wholeness, teaching not only how to survive grief, but also how to adapt and evolve new blessings as well.
- You say that we are experiencing a time of "global grief." What do you mean by that?
- What led you to write this book and why do you say we "cannot heal simply by positive thinking"? Isn't this going against what we have been taught is true?
- What tools can you give our audience to help them recognize and relieve the symptoms of grief that they may not even know they are experiencing–as in global grief?
- How do you help people to move on in the grieving process when they have experienced something horrific, like the shooting of children in an elementary school?
- What is it that you find slightly "off" in the steps of grief popularized by Elizabeth Kubler-Ross?
- Why do you warn against the new 2013 instructions for dealing with grief found in the 5th Edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, or, in the mental health community, the DSM? Isn't this the bible of psychiatry and psychology?
- If you could tell people one thing you know for sure about grief, what would it be?
- What about people who have trouble meditating or visualizing?

Education Old and New—A Perspective
When Dronacharya demanded of the untouchable, Ekiavya, his right hand thumb as Guru Dakshina he was, after all, vindicating the truth of the Marxian maxim that the ruling ideas of any epoch are the ideas of the ruling class. In claiming that the cruel punishment had been visited on Ekiavya not on account of his lowly social position but th^ fact that he had stolen knowledge, the Guru, wittingly or unwittingly, only further reinforced the materialist view of knowledge as privileged though stealable property. In that age of the epic, it was unthinkable that the socially outcast, however endowed, should be so equipped as to offer challenge to the powers of the entrenched. Something similar applies to the story of Kam—the denial to him of the right to call Arjun to account in arms on the legitimising ground of the inequality of station, and his liquidation subsequently by treachery at the politic behest of no less than the Lord himself. Let us also remember that Ram, the quintessence of virtues, did not think twice in decapitating Sambook, the meditating Shudra in Valmikfs Ramayana, and to the consistency of the same Marxian historical truth. Power, then centred in Brahminical Presence and the incantatory magic of Vedic mantras, was not for sharing with the lower orders. And the most numerous among the lower orders, women, had especially to be excluded from Sanskrit learning if hierarchy and division of labour had to be maintained. Recall that as late as the latter half of the nineteenth century Ramabai Pandita's entire Chitpawan Brahmin household in Pune was mercilessly ostracized because her enlightened father took it into his dangerous head to impart Sanskrit learning first to his wife and then to his famous daughter who, after all, had to convert to Christianity to find an emancipatory platform outside the dominant, patriarchal Hindu fold. That the firebrand nationalist Tilak was to be abusive of her, and that even the reformer Ranade was to desert her tells us something instructive about the ways in which education as a supposedly autonomous archive has had to struggle against power-structures that perpetuate the myth of autonomy from time to time but always know better. There is perhaps no better illustration of this than is provided by the sad story of that first

Two Jewish teenagers leaving a synagogue in Marseilles on Tuesday were beaten up and robbed in an anti-Semitic attack purportedly by two men "of African origin," according to the French National Bureau of Vigilance Against Anti-Semitism (BNVCA). The teens told police that the attackers yelled, "Dirty Jews, we will exterminate all of you," according to Israel National News.
40% of the population of Marseilles is now Muslim; it is estimated that Marseilles will become the first Muslim majority city in France.
The two Jewish teenagers required medical treatment. One of them said he thought he knew the attackers. BNVCA asked Marseille police to "do everything possible to identify and question the attackers," and suggested more stringent punishment for attacks to deter further incidents.
The organization stated, "Jewish citizens have become increasingly vulnerable targets. This gives rise to insecurity, despite the significant steps taken by the government to try to protect its Jewish citizens, and their places of worship."
In 2012, the SPCJ (Service de Protection de la Communaute Juive), a security agency for French Jewry, reported there had been a 45% increase in anti-Semitic attacks since 2011, mostly by Muslims. In November of that year, a Jewish father was badly beaten and the family's home destroyed by youths from the community. In 2014, a Jewish man in his sixties was attacked by a Muslim youth.

A 'bored' Ilkeston teenager received a stolen £1500 scooter and used it to ride across fields, a court heard.
The Sym bike was recovered from Daniel McCarthy four days later but by then it was unusable.
It had been stolen from a driveway overnight on April 13 and taken to McCarthy's then-home in Pear Tree Avenue, Ripley, by a pal.
When police found it on the front garden it was extensively damaged, its steering lock had been removed and its ignition bypassed and it was covered in mud and without registration plates.
McCarthy, 19, initially told police he and a friend bought the scooter online but he later said a friend brought it to his home and he knew it was stolen.
McCarthy, now of Blackwell Avenue, Ilkeston, admitted handling stolen goods and was given a 7pm-7am curfew for eight weeks and ordered to do 100 hours unpaid work.
He must also pay £500 compensation.
He told a probation officer that he used the scooter because he was bored. He had since moved from his mother's home to his father's address to distance himself from "negative influences" and he had stopped drinking, which was at the root of his offending.
"He was asked to help hotwire the scooter but he didn't know how to do it so they took it to a neighbour and then rode it around fields," said Matt Evans, for McCarthy.

The band has been compared to Led Zeppelin -- I love rock music, and Led Zeppelin is one of my all-time favorite rock bands.

Zeppelin is a brand name (manufactured by Luftschiff Zeppelin), sort of like calling all colas "Coke."
The really dark and scarry guys were in Zeppelin and Sabbath.
So when I use their name, I use singular (though, confusingly, refer to most bands as "they," as in Led Zeppelin is them.)

So I called Zeppelin's manager Peter Grant to see if I could tape them for my BBC "In Concert" series.

Pros: Minimizes pores, reduces redness, mattifies skin
Cons: Only 4 shades to choose from
It started when I was about 14 years old. It seemed like overnight I had broken out in a rash of acne along my lower jaw. A quick trip to the dermatologist confirmed what my mom and I had suspected- I was destined to have bad skin just like every other person in my family. The dermatologist started me on an antibiotic and a topical ointment, but what was I to do until it started working?
Following his suggestion, I decided to give Clinique a try. Up to this point, I had never tried it because I was only 14 years old and back then 14 year olds generally didn't buy department store foundation (in this part of the country anyway).
That is how I got started on Clinique Pore Minimizer Foundation and eight years later I'm still using it (minus a couple years in between when Clinique decided to discontinue it. Fortunately, it's been added back to their product line where it belongs).
What Clinique Says:
"Lends oil-rich skin a velvety matte finish, a look of lasting freshness and smoothness. Refines texture, minimizes the look of pores." {courtesy of www.clinique.com}
Water purified, alcohol denat, propylene glycol, talc, kaolin, hydrated silica, barium sulfate, polysorbate 85, magnesium alumini silicate, salicyclic acid, potassium sorbate, citric acid, disodium edta
The Product:
Clinique Pore-Minimizer Makeup comes in a clear square plastic bottle with a silver screw-on cap. The product itself separates in the bottle and must be shaken up every time you use it. It has a slight medicinal smell that disappears once applied to the skin. The formula is slightly watery and applies sheer. It's also extremely fast drying and is best when applied using your fingertips.
It comes in four shades:
New Ivory
Cream Beige
Nude Beige
What I like about Clinique Pore-Minimizer Makeup:
I've been using this product for eight years now and it's the only foundation that I have consistently received compliments over.
-The formula is sheer but it does a great job of mattifying the skin, which makes pores appear smaller.
-It also does a great job of reducing redness which is a big factor for me (I have ruddy skin covering my cheeks and nose and it's no fun).
-When applied my skin looks and feels flawless.
-It's oil free so it's great for my problem skin.
What I don't like about Clinique Pore-Minimizer Makeup:
Yes, there are a few things.
-First is my beef with Clinique's shades. There are only four shades to choose from. Thankfully, the formula is sheer but it seems that Clinique thinks that everyone has pink undertones to their skin. I have slight yellow undertones and very fair skin. If I don't have a slight tan, then there is no way the lightest shade (New Ivory) will work on me.
-Another problem is that this foundation is slightly drying, which is great for the summertime. However, this could mean big problems for the wintertime. Any patch of dry skin, no matter how small, quickly turns flaky once this foundation is applied.
The Bottom Line:
Back when my skin was oily 24/7, Pore Minimizer Makeup was a godsend. Now that I'm older, my usage of this foundation is pretty much restricted to the spring/summer/fall months (yes, my skin is still pretty oily even in adulthood haha). Although sheer, Pore-Minimizer Makeup provides a flawless finish that reduces the look of pores and redness. However, I wouldn't recommend it to those looking for major coverage for zits- you'll either need to use concealer or a heavier foundation. All in all, the perfect light-weight foundation for those of us with angry skin that don't want to feel like we're wearing a mask.
