text:
About two years ago, H&Co Senior Designer Andy Clymer proposed that we design a monospace typeface. Monospace (or "fixed-width") typefaces have a unique place in the culture: their most famous ancestor is the typewriter, and they remain the style that designers reach for when they want to remind readers about the author behind the words. Typewriter faces have become part of the aesthetic of journalism, fundraising, law, academia, and politics; a dressier alternative to handwriting, but still less formal than something set in type, they're an invaluable tool for designers.
I acutely felt the need for such a typeface, and immediately thought of places I'd want to use it on Discover.typography. And while I liked the idea of creating a new typeface that would have this kind of voice — minus the nostalgic clackety-clack look of an actual typewriter face — I wondered if we could achieve these results without the many compromises required of a fixed-width design. Fixed-width faces force every character into a box of the same size, creating charmingly long serifs on the capital I, but tragic, procrustean disfigurements of wider letters like M and W. So I suggested that we relax the system, to create a font that feels monospaced, but behaves more professionally.
Andy made an equally compelling counterproposal, reminding me that the command-line editor — these days, home to so many people who design things — could really be improved by a fully fixed-width typeface. What if, in addition to shedding the unwanted baggage of the typewriter, we also looked to the programming environment as a place where type could make a difference? Like many screen fonts before it, Operator could pay extra attention to the brackets and braces and punctuation marks more critical in code than in text. But if Operator took the unusual step of looking not only to serifs and sans serifs, but to script typefaces for inspiration, it could do a lot more. It could render the easily-confused I, l, and 1 far less ambiguous. It could help "color" syntax in a way that transcends the actual use of color, ensuring that different parts of a program are easier to identify. Andy hoped this might be useful when a technical pdf found its way to a black-and-white laser printer. It was an especially meaningful gesture to me, as someone who, like three hundred million others, is red-green colorblind.
So with designers, developers, and most of all readers in mind, we decided to design it both ways. Operator Mono® is our new family of fixed-width typefaces, with a broader range of weights than a typical typewriter face, and an italic that positively shines in code. Its more editorial companion is the natural-width Operator® family, which offers the voice of typewriting but none of the compromises. Operator extends to nine weights, from Thin to Ultra, and includes both roman and italic small caps throughout. Both families are supported by companion ScreenSmart fonts, specially designed and engineered for use in the browser at text sizes.
In developing Operator, we found ourselves talking about JavaScript and css, looking for vinyl label embossers on eBay, renting a cantankerous old machine from perhaps the last typewriter repair shop in New York, and unearthing a flea market find that amazingly dates to 1893. Above is the four-minute film I made, to record a little of what went into Operator, and introduce the team at H&Co behind it. —JH

Thomas Jefferson University Honoring Cancer Pioneer Axel Ullrich with Lennox K. Black International Prize
Two-day symposium Nov. 29 and 30 will focus on individualized medicine
Thomas Jefferson University will honor the renowned biotech researcher whose discoveries led to a slew of innovative drugs that revolutionized treatment including Herceptin—one of the first gene-based medications for breast cancer—with its prestigious Lennox K. Black International Prize for Excellence in Biomedical Research.
Axel Ullrich, PhD, director of the Department of Molecular Biology at the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry in Germany, will receive the recognition for his work in individualized medicine during a two-day symposium that will feature speakers from Jefferson, the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Johns Hopkins University, Genentech and former Kimmel Cancer Center at Jefferson Director Carlo Croce, MD, Director of the Human Cancer Genetics Program at The Ohio State University.
The symposium, "Individualized Medicine," will be held November 29 and 30 on the Jefferson campus at the Dorrance H. Hamilton Building, Connelly Auditorium, 1001 Locust Street. The prize award and keynote speech by Dr. Ullrich will begin at 2:30 p.m. on Nov. 29. Michael J. Vergare, MD, Senior Vice President of Academic Affairs, and Professor and Chair of the Department of Psychiatry at Jefferson, will present the award to Dr. Ullrich on behalf of the University.
The prize is awarded every two years to recognize the impact of pioneering biomedical research on the alleviation of human disease and suffering. Another goal is to draw the international scientific research community together in recognition of the ability of the spirit of human inquiry to transcend national boundaries and divisions.
For the past 25 plus years, Dr. Ullrich has been a leader in the biotechnology world, translating many of his basic science discoveries into clinical applications. Dr. Ullrich and his team's research led to the development of the drug Humulin (human insulin for diabetes), which is the first therapeutic agent ever to be developed through gene-based technology.
Another product based on Dr. Ullrich's work is the anti-cancer drug Herceptin (trastuzumab). In the mid-1980s, Dr. Ullrich and collaborators discovered that 30 percent of breast cancer patients overexpress the HER2 gene, which is a gene involved in the development of invasive cancers. This was the basis for the development of a monoclonal antibody that inhibits HER2 production, known as Herceptin, which been used since the late 1990s to treat patients with metastatic breast cancer. It has been shown to improve overall survival and prevents tumor recurrence in many women.
Dr. Ullrich received his primary degree in biochemistry at the University of Tubingen, Germany, and his PhD from the University of Heidelberg in Molecular Genetics in 1975. He worked as a senior scientist at Genentech in San Francisco from 1978 to 1988. Since then, he has been Managing Director of the Max Plank Institute of Biochemistry.
He also received the 2010 Wolf Prize for research on human proto-oncogenes and development of novel cancer therapies.
After the award and keynote speech are delivered, Marc S. Williams, MD, Director of the Genomic Medicine Institute, Geisinger Health System, and David Nash, MD, MBA, Dean of Jefferson School of Population Health, will address the symposium. A poster session and reception hosted by the Chairman of the symposium planning committee, Stephen C. Peiper, MD, Peter A. Herbut Professor and Chair, in the Department of Pathology, Anatomy and Cell Biology at Jefferson, will follow.
Several researchers will speak on Nov. 30, beginning at 8:30 a.m., at the Bluemle Life Sciences Building, 233 S 10th Street, Room 101, on "The Role of Structural Biology in Precision Medicine." That includes John M. Pascal, PhD, of the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at Jefferson, Wei Yang, PhD, a Senior Investigator and Section Chief at the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases at the NIH, Daniel J. Leahy, PhD, Professor of Biophysics and Biophysical Chemistry, Johns Hopkins University, and Chris Bowden, MD, Vice President of Product Development for Signal Transduction Inhibitors, Genentech.

The Lennox K. Black Prize is given biennially by Jefferson to an international researcher who is accomplished in his or her field. This year marks the 7th symposium for this award at Jefferson. Previous Lennox K. Black International Prize winners include Professor Harald zur Hausen, PhD, Nobel Laureate and Barry J. Marshall, AC, Nobel Laureate.

Sep 13, 2009"Having had the privilege of a preview:" 'Her Majesty's Men' predates 'Special Forces' and Marquesate is in a different register here and writing without co-author Vashtan. This is less epic than that huge, still unfolding story that many of us follow as it appears. HMM tells the story of two squaddies and of their developing relationship. While it is less violent than some of the episodes in SF, there is still enough grit to keep things tense and there also is a rather action-packed episode in a dirty little war somewhere, where the two heroes face a rather sticky situation. Much of what makes 'Special Forces' so strong, is already here in this much earlier book. To start with, there are credible, complex characters who remain true to their ordinary 'squaddie' selves even as their story unfolds and one realises it is far from ordinary. It's not a spoiler to say that there will be no 'curtain picking' in this one. Despite the limited vollume of the story, we also find...

Sep 4, 2009"Her Majesty's Men" Tom and Alex's story is riveting from the opening shower scene to the final page. It is a voyage of disovery, both for Alex and for Tom. A story of conflict and resolution, of understanding and acceptance, of freindship, heroics and love. On the outside they look like regular squaddies, from the inside they are complex men. Between Tom examining his conflict caused by his attraction and love for his best friend and Alex's internal scars we get to know these two souls, what drives them and how their friendship grows to be "more". The journey is engrossing for the reader and delivered expertly by the writer. There is no hiccups that pull you away. I was able to sink into the story and stay there completely till the end. It was a wonderful experience. For those of you that have never read Marquesates writing, the style is different from most authors I read. It truly grabs you by the throat and never lets you go. Fast paced and full of phrases... More > that explode visual images into my mind, the use of short sentences fits the storyline and the characters.

Aug 11, 2009""Her Majesty's Men" by Marquesate - A Richness of Words" Many of us are familiar with Marquesate's work through the brilliant epic Special Forces: Soldiers, Mercenaries and Veterans which she co-authors with Vashtan. Most recently, Marquesate released her first published novel entitled, Her Majesty's Men. It is the story of Royal Engineers Sgt. Thomas Christopher Warren and SSgt. Alexander Turner. Warning: Mild Spoilers Ahead Tom and Alex have been best mates for three years working and training as soldiers. Being best mates they spend much of their off-duty time together, drinking in the pub, eating in the Mess, watching DVDs and just hanging out. During all this time Tom has secretly harboured a burning lust and obsession for Alex that goes beyond the confines of their current friendship and it is slowly driving him insane. Owing to a past incident in the line of duty, Alex lives in a survivor's hell of his own with hideous scars on both the outside and the... More > inside. Alex is completely oblivious to Tom's secrets until one night of beer drinking and Alex's insistent prodding - Tom comes out. Alex reacts with such virulence that, on the surface, his reaction appears as a betrayal of their friendship. And thus begins their dance. Oh, and what a dance it is! An intimate, intricate and fragile choreography of discoveries where Tom and Alex take turns leading. Tom leads a passive but willing Alex in experiencing physical pleasure once again, and in the process, begins his own journey of trust and acceptance. Alex takes the lead when he decisively relives his past hell in order to save Tom's life and, in turn, comes to the realization of a number of self-truths. I truly did not know what to expect of Her Majesty's Men but I can honestly say that about five pages into the book the phrase "a richness of words" kept playing over and over like a mantra in my head and continued to do so throughout the read. And this is what this story is. It is not merely a series of words that are sequentially strung together to tell a tale, but rather, written with a richness and texture that produces an abundant and robust language that is Tom's and Alex's story. Marquesate is an excellent writer that has well honed her craft. She has written Her Majesty's Men with great passion, meticulous attention to detail, and breathes life into characters that have both emotional depth and intelligence. The intensity with which she has written these two characters is quite an intimate treat for the reader because you feel and experience as they do. I admit (without apology) to being quite selfish when it comes to this story. Simply put - I LOVED IT but it was hardly enough!!! Marquesate has wet my appetite and I want more, much, much more of Tom and Alex. So, I will wait patiently for the next installment of Her Majesty's Men. Bravo Marquesate and thank you for a wonderful story!!!< Less
Feb 23, 2009"Her Majestys Men Marquesate" First thing that struck me about this thoroughly worthwhile journey was the carefully drawn out larger than life characters. That best describe Tom and Alex. Anyone familiar with Marquesate's work will know the meticulous attention to detail in making the characters real and believable. Often as in the real world They carry with conviction the physical and internal scars that have shaped their lives. Ssgt Alex turner and Sgt Alex Warren are best mates serving with-in the British forces, royal Engineers. One fateful evening after two many beers. Tom reveals a startling confession that ultimately threatens to destroy their friendship, impact the course of their lives forever. What unfolds next is a richly depicted story that has some seriously heartstopping and breathtaking moments. The graphic and descriptive writing within the text. Although thrilling is sometimes brutal and can at times make for some uncomfortable reading that not everyone... More > will appreciate. As is usual glossing over to appease the mainsteam is not Marquesate's style, as courageous an autor as the men he/she writes about. ultimately it's the two soldiers who leave a lasting impression. Make their mark as the story reaches it's deeply satisfying conclusion. Together they discover the true meaning of friendship, courage and what they truly are, mean to one another. Marguesate's HMM is in a word stunning. This rich colourful depiction of true honour within the armed forces will leave a deep and lasting impression. Signed/LOTD< Less

Jets linebacker Bart Scott says the problem with the team in 2012 is easy to explain: A lack of talent.
Scott said on Inside the NFL that there's nothing hard to understand about why the Jets went 6-10. That's what happens when your personnel doesn't match up with your opponents.
"You know what the problem was with the New York Jets this year? We didn't have enough quality players to win. Simple as that," Scott said, via Conor Orr of the Star-Ledger.
If Scott's assessment is right, the decision to fire G.M. Mike Tannenbaum was correct. And the next general manager will have a difficult task ahead of him.
But Scott said there's another problem facing the Jets: The media attacks wore the team down. Scott said the New York media go harder on the Jets than on the Giants, and that they crossed the line by, among other things, following Rex Ryan on vacation and taking pictures of his tattoo.
"I didn't like the personal attacks," Scott said. "A quick example now is the media following Rex down to the Bahamas. I mean, who does that? . . . I can't imagine them going out and catching Tom Coughlin laid out. . . . We are in the same town but we are covered differently."
One thing Scott should know by now is that the press is more likely to be critical when a team is losing. So the media coverage will get more favorable as soon as the Jets get more good players.

Joanna Smith vs. Kenny Chesney – The Showdown
Both of today's Showdown competitors are no doubt thankful they don't have to face Craig Campbell, who won for a fifth straight time on Monday, meaning his song 'Outta My Head' will be retired to the Hall of Fame. Today and tonight on Taste of Country Nights, fans of Kenny Chesney and Joanna Smith will be begin a quest to send their new singles on a path to enshrinement.
Smith's new song is an aching ballad called 'We Can't Be Friends.' Like Chesney does in his new song 'El Cerrito Place,' the singer hurts for a lover that might not be right for her. Chesney is literally searching for his lost love, who somehow slipped through his fingers and disappeared, perhaps forever.
Listen to clips of both Smith's and Chesney's songs and vote for your favorite here. You can vote once every hour online, so come back and vote often to be sure your artist wins. Hear the full versions of the songs tonight after 10PM on Taste of Country Nights. Help your favorite song win by placing additional votes at (888) 678-9995. Call as many times as you like! You can listen to the show online through any of the 33 radio stations that carry it. Voting will end tonight at 10:40PM CT.
Listen to a Sample of Joanna Smith, 'We Can't Be Friends'
Listen to a Sample of Kenny Chesney, 'El Cerrito Place'
Showdown Rules: The song with the most votes wins, and the winner goes on to face a new challenger in the next Showdown. Vote as much as once per hour online, and as much as you want by calling (888) 678-9995. If a song wins five days in a row, it will be retired into the Taste of Country Showdown Hall of Fame to allow for new songs to compete. Some songs will be considered for a second Showdown if voter turnout is healthy in a losing effort.

Ensemble is superb in first performance on classical music's biggest stage
It's hard to imagine a better birthday present for Qualcomm co-founder and arts philanthropist Irwin Jacobs than what the San Diego Symphony gave him Tuesday night in Carnegie Hall. And that's not counting the rendition of "Happy Birthday" pianist Lang Lang, conductor Jahja Ling and the San Diego Symphony offered him from the stage or the reception celebrating his 80th birthday that followed the sold-out concert, the orchestra's first in Carnegie Hall.
Jacobs, with his wife Joan, was instrumental in resurrecting the orchestra and then stabilizing it with the largest donation to a U.S. orchestra ($120 million) in history. He has continued to champion the cause of the symphony and other San Diego cultural organizations, many of whose leaders and primary patrons were among the 450 San Diegans who came to New York to celebrate the symphony and Jacobs' birthday.
His, and San Diego's, reward: A superb, even revelatory, performance by the ensemble on classical music's biggest stage.
It would be an understatement to say they rose to the occasion in a program of David Bruce's "Night Parade," Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 2 and Prokofiev's Symphony No. 5. When the orchestra performed the world premiere of Bruce's "Night Parade" in Copley Symphony Hall to open the season, it was a bit of minimalist mush. When it offered the New York premiere Tuesday, "Night Parade" was a swaggering, energizing orchestral showcase.
Who knew the orchestra had such a muscular lower brass section? Bruce uses them almost like a rock composer might use a bass guitar, but where the acoustics in Copley Symphony Hall relegate the lower tones of the ensemble into the background, in Carnegie they had a sense of presence that literally transformed the orchestra's sound, especially in the Bruce and the Prokofiev Symphony No. 5.
The woodwinds also sounded with greater definition and presence, and the strings had a warmth that Ling exploited throughout the concert.
In a memorable rendering of the Rachmaninoff Piano Concerto No. 2, Lang Lang and the orchestra started where they left off in Copley Symphony Hall Saturday when they played this work together for the first time.
In Carnegie, there was never a question of the orchestra overbalancing the soloist or any sense that anyone, whether Lang Lang or the orchestra, was holding back.
Lang Lang brought a remarkable degree of melodic nuance and rhythmic flexibility to his interpretation. Like any great artist, his silences (especially one in the second movement after an extended trill that seemed to vanish into thin air) were as telling as the passages littered with notes.
When the piece concluded, even before you could exhale, the audience was on its feet, cheering and applauding. Then, to its surprise and delight, Lang Lang and the orchestra played "Happy Birthday." The crowd turned toward Jacobs, by then standing in the front of the first tier. He was beaming.

I read a wildfire article today that was breathless about the scope of total acreage burned across the drought-stricken northwest US and of course included a climate change angle. This is the first wildfire article I've read that did not include some mention of decades of ill-conceived fire policies in the intermountain West.
Let's not mince words: a lot of fires are burning on a lot of acres this year primarily because of those man-made policies. Millions of overcrowded acres of forest because people put tiny fires out for decades and allowed trees (fuel) to grow and grow. Fire is a natural process that we purposefully interrupted. Prior years with extensive fires also generated media and environmentalist attention. As I stated above, the difference between then and now is climate activists politicized the science. An EcoWatch article now contains no mention of historical decisions because it is more important to satisfy the environmentalist base by claiming nature is pure without humans and impure with us.
This is disappointing but not surprising. For now, I am glad there are more responsible media outlets that continue to acknowledge the very real and dominant influence people have on forests (forest management), the very real and strong influence nature has on forests (drought), as well as the growing influence that people will have on forests in the future (climate change).

Bennett and McCreery join previously announced performers Trace Adkins, Mariah Carey, CeeLo Green, Victoria Justice, Chris Mann, Rod Stewart and Il Volo. Brooke White has been added to perform in the 7 p.m. ET hour.
Al Roker (NBC's "Today") and Savannah Guthrie (NBC's "Today") to Co-host the Celebration
NEW YORK, N.Y. - November 27, 2012 - NBC will celebrate the lighting of the world's most famous Christmas tree with a live broadcast from Rockefeller Center in New York City on Wednesday, November 28 (8-9 p.m. ET). The star-studded holiday special will feature performances from Trace Adkins, Tony Bennett, Mariah Carey, CeeLo Green (NBC's "The Voice"), Victoria Justice, Chris Mann, Scotty McCreery, Rod Stewart and Il Volo, and special appearances by Billy Crystal, Bette Milder and the Radio City Rockettes.
The 80th annual holiday extravaganza will feature a Norway Spruce that is approximately 80 feet tall, 50 feet in diameter and weighs approximately 10 tons. The tree is estimated to be about 80 years old.
The tradition of the Rockefeller Christmas tree dates back to the Great Depression. First erected in 1933, the inaugural tree was decked with 700 lights and placed in front of the then eight-month-old RCA Building, now the GE Building. The Christmas tree gathering was enhanced in 1936 with the opening of the Rockefeller Plaza outdoor ice-skating pond. NBC-TV televised the tree lighting for the first time in 1951 on "The Kate Smith Show" and as part of the nationwide "Howdy Doody" television show from 1953-55.

(I.E. the new fangled software that is optimized > for HT can really benefit from additional REAL processors instead of using > just HT?) I would say no as well. In a single sentence, hyperthreading (its better than "super" or "multi" threading ;-) ) delivers idle work slots from each functional unit inside all superscalar processors in an SMP system to any 'needs-to-be-run' thread of work from any process. There is some scheduling over head of course. The following article does an excellent job of explaining this. http://arstechnica.com/paedia/h/hyperthreading/hyperthreading-1.html However, YMMV depending on job type/work mix. In the worst case, where two processes execute identical instructions at the same time, there will be no benefit over multithreading. On the other hand, several synthetic/nonsense threads designed/insinuated to use only idle slots in superscalar functional unit space (which spans processors) could perhaps be run simultaneously without disturbing the performance of the above process. What you will see depends on where between these two extremes your hyperthreaded workload comes to rest. More reports measuring the benefits for "HPC code" are needed to detect the quantity of "hype" in hyperthreading. ;-) rbw

Wis. mother whose 3 kids died in fire after being left alone sentenced to 18 years in prison
MILWAUKEE – A Wisconsin woman whose three children died in a house fire after she left them alone has been sentenced to 18 years in prison.
Twenty-five-year-old Angelica D. Belen, of West Allis, was sentenced Friday in the April 11 deaths of her 5-year-old daughter, Nayeli Colon, and her 4-year-old twin sons, Adrian and Alexis Colon.
Court documents say the children had been locked in a bedroom for hours before they died. Belen told investigators she locked them in the room because she needed to go to a new job and didn't want them wrecking the house or getting outside where neighbors would see they were unattended.
Child welfare workers had repeatedly warned Belen about leaving the children alone, and she had previously been charged with child neglect.

Two Hope College students have been named semi-finalists in poetry in the national Norman Mailer High School and College Writing Awards competition.
Senior Alex Mouw of Holland and junior Lindsay Timmerman of Hamilton are among only 20 students from colleges and universities around the country recognized in the Four-Year College Poetry category. The only other institution to have as many honorees in the category, which named one winner, four finalists and 15 semi-finalists, was Yale University.
"Alex and Lindsay are terrific poets, students and people. Like all of our creative writing students, they get that the gift of their writing is a passing-on of the gifts they've received," said Dr. Pablo Peschiera, who is an assistant professor of English and director of the Jack Ridl Visiting Writers Series at Hope. "The contest is judged by internationally known writers and poets, and the 20 college poets on the list were likely whittled-down from several hundred applicants, so it's a big, big honor."
The Norman Mailer High School and College Writing Awards competition is co-sponsored by the Norman Mailer Center and Writers Colony and the National Council of Teachers of English. The program names student winners, finalists and semi-finalists in categories including Four-Year College Creative Non-Fiction, Four-Year College Poetry, Two-Year College Creative Non-Fiction and High School Creative Non-Fiction.
Mouw is a classical studies, English and history triple major at Hope. His activities at the college have included serving as a resident assistant, the Vienna Summer School and the Pew Society. He is a 2010 graduate of Holland Christian High School, and the son of Richard and Cindy Mouw of Holland.
Timmerman is a communication and English-writing emphasis dual major at Hope. Her activities at the college have included the Phelps Scholars Program, and she is a member of the cross country and track teams. She is a 2011 graduate of Hamilton High School, and the daughter of Rolfe and Stacy Timmerman of Hamilton.

"Are you ready to start Voxing on your Windows Phone?" That's what the public announcement on the Voxer support forum reads, which details a beta program for the Windows Phone platform. Good news for those who are eagerly awaiting the service to support Microsoft's mobile platform. So how does one get involved with the company to test out its product?
The post notes that the team has opened up the testing access for the app to a "limited number" of users to provide feedback and anonymous data to the development team for improvements and bug fixing. But again, how does one get involved? It's easy to register your interest as a consumer and hop aboard the beta train.
Simply fire an email over to firstname.lastname@example.com, which will bind yourself to the company's agreement that the .XAP file, any provided feedback and information regarding the performance of the app will remain confidential. Once the email has been sent and yourself chosen to participate in the program, the terms and conditions will need to be agreed to for access to be granted. After that, you're in.
So what information do you need to provide to the team? Here's a good starting point:
- Email used on a Microsoft Account (Windows Live ID)
- Email used on a Voxer account
- Brief statement as to why you'd like to be a part of the beta program
It's good to see the company publicly announce the beta program. We've been following its progress with Windows Phone to accompany support for the Android platform, which already sports an app. If interested, be sure to fire the Voxer team an email with the relevant information and get involved to help shape the upcoming Windows Phone app for other consumers.
Join in the discussion over on our forum.

text: St. Lucia remains relatively unspoiled, a checkerboard of green-mantled mountains, valleys, wild orchids, and fishing villages. The island has a mixed French and British heritage, but there's a hint of the South Pacific about it as well. Music reverberates throughout St. Lucia, and the savory smells of a rich cuisine waft through Marigot Bay and Soufriere. A favorite stop-off for island-hoppers, yachties and jet-setters, St. Lucia offers volcanic rock beaches, lush fruity landscapes, and a lively nightlife of limbo, jazz and rum punch.

Perched high on a hill overlooking Aruba stands the Alto Vista Chapel, a tiny sanctuary that is often illuminated by dozens of candles that create its special ambiance. Everyone is welcome, both believers and non-believers, to enjoy the serene atmosphere or attend one of the weekly services. The current building dates from 1952, but the location has a much longer history, as this is where the first church on Aruba once stood.
The small yellow chapel is located on the north-eastern tip of the island close to the town of Noord and the Arikok Park. There is little in the surrounding landscape to interfere with the views of the island and sea – only cacti and low-growing shrubs protrude from the sand. Alto Vista, also often called 'pilgrim's church', is located at the end of a long, winding road. White crosses mark the route. The road is unpaved, so expect lots of kicked-up dust.
The original Alto Vista Chapel was built in 1750 under the supervision of Venezuelan missionary Domingo Antonio Silvestre, even though there was no priest to be found on the entire island. He won the souls of the Caquetios and paid for construction out of his own pocket. But the chapel did not protect against the plague, which swept through the village 26 years after it was built. The surviving believers then left. In the many decades that it was abandoned, the chapel fell into such disrepair that little more remained than tragic ruins. But, thanks to a resolute school teacher, the chapel rose again, 136 years after its abandonment.
While on a hike with her class in the 1940s, school teacher Francisca Henriques Lacle found a small painting of the Virgin Mary surrounded by flowers and candles. She saw this as evidence that the locals still felt strongly about this place. Although the Bishop of Curaçao originally rejected her request to rebuild the chapel, Francisco raised 5,000 florins through picnics to have a large statue of the Virgin Mary made in the Netherlands. When it arrived on the island, she received the bishop's blessing for construction. The chapel she helped build stands proudly once more.
Close to the chapel lies the peace labyrinth, used by modern pilgrims for prayer and meditation. There is no 'right' or 'wrong' way to walk through this modest maze. Each of the 11 paths has its own unique character. Choose a path at random and enjoy a peaceful, meditative experience.

QBasic has two ways of making sounds.
- SOUND command
- PLAY command
The SOUND command produces sound of a specific frequency for a specific duration from the PC Speaker. Only one sound can be played at a time. If multiple SOUND statements are issued sequentially, every statement after the first will not execute until after the previous one finishes.
SOUND f, d
- f - Frequency in Hertz
- d - Duration in ticks
Plays a 100 hertz wave for 20 ticks. One second is about 18.2 ticks, so 20 ticks are about 1.1 seconds.
The lowest frequency allowed by QBasic is 37 Hz, which is roughly a D in the 2nd octave. The highest frequency is 32 767 Hz, but this tone can not be heard, because the normal human hearing range ends at 20 000 Hz.
A secondary function of the SOUND command is to use it to control time in a program.

Butler, Selkirk & Satchell headline Aintree bill
by @livefight
Merseyside stars Paul Butler, Joe Selkirk, Kevin Satchell and Tom Stalker hit the races on Saturday 1st March when they all feature at the historic Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool, live and exclusive on BoxNation (Sky Ch. 437/Virgin Ch. 546).
Ellesmere Ports undefeated super-flyweight sensation Butler headlines the show when he defends his WBO and WBA Intercontinental titles.
The 25-year-old British Champion had a fantastic 2013 adding the Commonwealth, WBO and WBA International titles and taking his record to 14 fights unbeaten with seven KOs.
All-action Butler, who couldve been a jockey and is a big horse-racing fan, is excited to have his first fight of the year at Aintree as he looks to make big strides on the world scene.
He said, This is a big year for me and Im looking to start it with bang at Aintree on Saturday 1st March. Last year was great with plenty of fights and winning lots of belt, this year I hope for more of the same as I move closer to that world title. The opponents are getting harder, theyre more experienced and theyre bringing the best out of me.
Featuring as chief support is Liverpool hitman Joe Selkirk who makes the first defence of his WBO European Light-Middleweight title.
Selkirk demolished unbeaten Zoltan Sera inside three rounds last month to win his first pro title and is looking to keep busy this year with more hard-hitting performances.
While Selkirks challenger is to be confirmed, on the undercard top talents Ronnie Heffron and John Thain will fight it out and the winner is set to meet Selkirk next time.
Selkirk said, It makes such a difference winning that first title. Even though its not a world title, it feels like it is and Im not letting it go. Whoever Im facing at Aintree is getting smashed and then Im looking at the winner out of Heffron and Thain after that. I want to fight and keep busy and this year youll see the best of me.
Liverpool flyweight hot-shot Kevin Satchell, the British and Commonwealth Champion, has signed a promotional agreement with Queensberry Promotions and hell have his first fight for his new promoter at Aintree.
Unbeaten Satchell defends the Commonwealth title only - that he won at Aintree against Paul Edwards in May 2012 - against the mandatory challenger Issac Quaye from Ghana which will be a tough assignment, but Satchell is confident hell come through.
Satchell said, First of all Im really happy to have signed with my new promoter Frank Warren who believes I can make it to the top and Ill repay that faith with top performances in the ring. Its a good omen to return to the venue where I won my title and Ill put on a good show for the fans. The fighters from Ghana are tough and hard, just how I like them, Quaye will bring me to another level.
Also signing a promotional agreement with Warren today is the highly decorated former amateur star Thomas Stalker who will first make his Queensberry Promotions debut on the Copper Box Arena show on Saturday 15th February. Stalker will box on the undercard of European Heavyweight Champion Dereck Chisora defending his title against Andriy Rudenko, plus heavyweight sensation Tyson Fury who will box in an International contest on the card, and then hell also feature on the Aintree show.
The Liverpool ace, whos highlights include Gold at the 2010 Commonwealth Games, Bronze at the 2011 World Amateur Championships and captaining the England, is currently undefeated in five pro fights with two KOs since turning professional in February last year.
Light-welterweight Stalker is looking forward to fighting at home again and is promising a treat for fans.
Stalker said, Its a new year and new start for me and Im over the moon to join Frank Warren and Queensberry Promotions. Im unbeaten in five fights and this year Im really looking to push on and hopefully go for a title. Its a cracking line up at Aintree with some of Liverpool best in action so Ill be looking to make my mark and give the fans something special to remember.
Neil Marsh, who will manage Satchell and Stalker, has also brought top Liverpool prospects Steve Lewis, Nathan Brough and Ryan Farrag to Queensberry Promotions.
Marsh said, Im delighted to begin a working relationship with Frank Warren and Queensberry Promotions and look forward to building a strong base in Liverpool with the best fighters featuring on great shows. It was a fantastic deal offered to Kevin and Tom plus Steve, Nathan and Ryan, by Frank and it was too good to turn down. This is a great move for the lads in their careers and Im really really happy for them. With BoxNation televising their fights, these guys will become big big stars.
A further championship title fight will be added to the card and also joining will be former WBO World Light-Heavyweight Champion Nathan Cleverly who makes his long-awaited cruiserweight debut.
Completing the card will be Manchester unbeaten lightweight star Terry Flanagan, who has his first fight for Warren, and features in an eight-round contest, plus unbeaten Ellesmere Port prospect Matty Fagan who features in a six-round contest against Gloucesters Andy Harris.
Warren said, Its the first time in my promotional career that Ive staged a show at Aintree and Im delighted that the first show has a strong line up of talent from Merseyside. Paul is certainly one of the hot young talents to look out for this year, hes on the world scene now and hell be looking to make his mark this year. Joe looked great last time out dismantling a tough challenger in Sera and hell have a big year this year as well. Id like to welcome new signings Kevin Satchell and Tom Stalker to the Queensberry Promotions team along with Neil Marsh. Kevin is a quality fighter and I think he will do some good things this year, and the same with Tom who was a superb amateur and has carried that across to the pros and Im looking forward to working with them and really establishing them as big attractions in their home city. Its a top quality card with some of Britains best talent like Terry Flanagan in action and a cracking showdown between Ronnie Heffron and John Thain, plus top prospect Matty Fagan.

If you need to have secure, encrypted connections between a JMX client and the broker's MBean server, then you need to configure both sides of the connection accordingly.
As mentioned in JMX Connection Infrastructure, a broker is configured by default for non-secure communication using the preconfigured jmxrmi connector. Applications wishing to use the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) for secure communication must activate the alternate ssljmxrmi connector. The ssljmxrmi connector is preconfigured with imq.jmx.connector.RMIconnectorName.useSSL=true.
Obtain and install a signed certificate.
The procedure is the same as for the ssljms, ssladmin, or cluster connection service, as described under Using Signed Certificates.
Install the root certification authority certificate in the trust store if necessary.
Add the ssljmxrmi connector to the list of JMX connectors to be activated at broker startup:
Start the broker.
Use the Broker utility (imqbrokerd), either passing it the keystore password in a passfile or typing it from at the command line when prompted.
Disable validation of certificates if desired.
By default, the ssljmxrmi connector (or any other SSL-based connector) is configured to validate all broker SSL certificates presented to it. Validation will fail if the signer of the certificate is not in the client's trust store. To avoid this validation (for instance, when using self-signed certificates during software testing), set the broker property imq.jmx.connector.ssljmxrmi.brokerHostTrusted to true.
On the client side, if the AdminConnectionFactory class is being used to obtain a JMX connector, the AdminConnectionFactory object must be configured with a URL specifying the ssljmxrmi connector:
AdminConnectionFactory acf = new AdminConnectionFactory(); acf.setProperty(AdminConnectionConfiguration.imqAddress, "mq://myhost:7676/ssljmxrmi");
In addition, if the JMX client needs to access the trust store, use the system properties javax.net.ssl.trustStore and javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword to point the JMX client to the trust store. For example:
java -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=/tmp/myStrustsore -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=myTurstword MyApp

28 Nights | Europe
About Guernsey, United Kingdom
You will visit the following 19 places:
Belfast (meaning: "mouth of the sandbanks") is the capital and largest city of Northern Ireland, the second-largest city in Ireland after Dublin, and is situated around the River Lagan, which runs through the city. It is a port city known as the birthplace of the RMS Titanic, and for its political murals, documenting the 'Troubles' of the 20th century. Today, Belfast remains a centre for industry, as well as the arts, higher education, business, and law, and is the economic engine of Northern Ireland. The city suffered greatly during the period of conflict called "the Troubles", but latterly has undergone a sustained period of calm, free from the intense political violence of former years, and substantial economic and commercial growth. Additionally, Belfast city centre has undergone considerable expansion and regeneration in recent years, notably around Victoria Square.
Stavanger is a city and municipality in Norway. The urban area of Stavanger stretches across many neighboring municipalities, making it the third largest city in Norway by total urban population with 197 852 inhabitants as of January 1, 2011. Stavanger's core is to a large degree 18th- and 19th-century wooden houses that are protected and considered part of the city's cultural heritage. This has caused the town centre and inner city to retain a small-town character with an unusually high ratio of detached houses, and has contributed significantly to spreading the city's population growth to outlying parts of Greater Stavanger. The city's rapid population growth in the late 20th century was primarily a result of Norway's booming offshore oil industry. Today the oil industry is a key industry in the Stavanger region and the city is widely referred to as the Oil Capital of Norway. Multiple educational institutions for higher education are located in Stavanger. The largest of these is the University of Stavanger.
Oslo is a county and municipality, as well as the capital and largest city in Norway. Oslo was established as a municipality on 1 January 1838. Founded around 1048 by King Harald III "Hardraade" of Norway, the city was largely destroyed by fire in 1624. The Danish–Norwegian king Christian IV moved the city, rebuilding it closer to Akershus fortress, as Christiania (briefly also spelt Kristiania). In 1925, the city reclaimed its original Norwegian name, Oslo. The diocese of Oslo is one of the five original dioceses in Norway, which originated around the year 1070.
Dublin South
Dublin is the largest and capital city of Ireland. The English name is derived from the Irish name Dubh Linn, meaning "black pool". It is a primate city with an urban population of over 1 million, containing almost 25% of the country's population. Dublin is situated near the midpoint of Ireland's east coast, at the mouth of the River Liffey, and at the centre of the Dublin Region. The city is listed by the Globalization and World Cities Research Network (GaWC) as a global city, with a ranking of "Alpha-", placing it among the top thirty cities in the world. It is a historical and contemporary centre for education, the arts, administration, economy and industry.
Bergen is the second largest city in Norway with a population of 261,600 as of April 31, 2011. Bergen is the administrative centre of Hordaland county. Greater Bergen or Bergen Metropolitan Area as defined by Statistics Norway, has a population of 386,900 as of April 31, 2011. Bergen is located in the county of Hordaland on the south-western coast of Norway. It is an important cultural hub in its region, recognized as the unofficial capital of Western Norway and sometimes also referred to as the Atlantic coast capital of Norway. The city was one of nine European cities honoured with the title of European Capital of Culture in the Millennium year.
The Convent Amsterdam
Amsterdam is the capital of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. It is the country's largest city and its financial, cultural, and creative centre. Many large Dutch institutions have their headquarters there, and seven of the world's 500 largest companies, including Philips and ING, are based in the city. In 2012, Amsterdam was ranked the second best city in which to live by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) and 12th globally on quality of living for environment and infrastructure by Mercer. Amsterdam derives its name from the city's origin as "Dam" of river "Amstel". In the past, the name was "Amstelredamme" which later changed as "Amsterdam". The city is one of the most popular destinations in Europe, attracting over 7 million international travellers annually. The city is colloquially known as ''Venice of the North'' because of its lovely canals that criss-cross the city, its impressive architecture and more than 1,500 bridges. There is something for every traveller's taste here; whether you prefer culture and history, serious partying, or just the relaxing charm of an old European city!
Esbjerg is a seaport on the west coast of the Jutland peninsula in southwest Denmark, the main town of Esbjerg Municipality, the site of its municipal council and with a population of 71,459 (1 January 2010) the fifth largest city in Denmark. Its municipality has a population of 115,114. The city is situated on the southwestern coast of Denmark, and is a seaport of the North Sea.

There they are — some missing home buyers are finally popping into the market, following months of dropping mortgage rates.
A weekly gauge of mortgage applications to buy a home recently hit the highest level since January, the Mortgage Bankers Association reported Wednesday. For the week that ended June 6, MBA's gauge reached a seasonally adjusted 187.5 — the strongest result since January — up 9% from the prior week.
Economists have been expecting this year's low and dropping mortgage rates to lure would-be buyers. Since the beginning of 2014, the average rate for a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage has fallen about four-tenths of percentage point, recently reaching 4.14%. That rate is up from 2013's ultra-low levels, but still translates to a relatively cheap mortgage.
But mortgage rates aren't the only factor behind buyers' interest and ability to take on a home loan. Career stability and income are key drivers for mortgage borrowers. Recent jobs readings show that the labor market is firming, albeit at a leisurely pace, and that hiring is ramping up.
Still, it's wise to use caution before throwing any parties over a single weekly data report. Despite the most recent gain, MBA's purchase-applications gauge is down 14% from a year earlier. Indeed, following a weak first quarter, economists expect 2014's sales of existing homes, which constitute the majority of the market, to hit below 2013's final tally. Still, as rates remain low, and if the employment environment keeps improving, sales rates could rise in coming months.

Adding Calendars, Wikis and Blogs to a SiteYou can't add calendars, wikis or blogs to an Alfresco site through the Explorer application; they can only be added (and used) with the Share application.
To add the content, go to the site in Share, select More > Customise Site, and then drag content from the Available Site Pages.
Liferay Integration into a SubfolderIt's impossible to specify Liferay to use a subfolder of Alfresco for its site. For example:
dl.store.cmis.system.root.dir=Root Folder/Folder 1/Folder 2/Liferay Home
This results in the error:
Invalid property value: Constraint: 11200014 Value 'Root Folder/Folder 1/Folder 2/Liferay Home' is not valid as a file name. This property must be a valid file name.
<config> <flags> <client-debug>true</client-debug> </flags> </config>
For Alfresco Share, the relevant file is
Call to undefined function alfresco_repository_access()You may get this error when trying to install the Alfresco 6.x module within Drupal 6.x.
This is caused by not having the alfresco module enabled; but even if you specifically enable it, it still may fail.
The root cause is that the SOAP extension may not be enabled; enable it in your php.ini and try enabling the Alfresco module again.
To disable Drupal modules that are enabled but cause your site to crash (so you can't disable them), see Drupal.
ReferenceError: "json" is not defined.If you get this error while trying to call a Remote Alfresco API script, such as the following:
var clientRequest = json.toString(); var result = remote.connect("alfresco").post("/api/foo/" + encodeURIComponent(user.id) + "/profile/edit", clientRequest, "application/json");
The problem is that you need to specify application/json as a content type and re-encode the page arguments to JSON like so:
var clientRequest = page.url.args; var result = remote.connect("alfresco").post("/api/foo/" + encodeURIComponent(user.id) + "/profile/edit", jsonUtils.toJSONString(clientRequest), "application/json");
"userhome" is not defined.userhome is only defined for webscripts within the Alfresco Explorer interface, and not the Alfresco Share interface. I think the common way to solve this is to write an API interface (using JSON), i.e. your Alfresco Share-based app will call the Alfresco Explorer-based app to modify/create content within userhome.
RedirectingTo redirect from within an FTL script:
// redirect status.location = url.context + "/page/redirect"; status.code = 302; status.redirect = true;
The choice of Java constructor replace matching JavaScript argument types (function,string) is ambiguous; candidate constructors are: class java.lang.String replace(char,char), class java.lang.String replace(java.lang.CharSequence,java.lang.CharSequence)Instead of using this:
return s.replace(/[]/g, "") .replace(/["]/g, """);
First try casting it to a "Javascript" string, like so:
return (s + "").replace(/[]/g, "") .replace(/["]/g, """);
Importing JQuery into an Alfresco Share pageYou need to add an import for the JQuery library in the xxx.get.head.ftl template, for example:
<@script type="text/javascript" src="${page.url.context}/res/jquery/jquery-1.6.2.js"></@script>
Correct Format for the Alfresco d:date Data TypeThe correct String format for an instance of the d:date data type is the full ISO8601 date format with milliseconds and timezone offset explicitly provided, i.e. 2005-09-16T17:01:03.456+01:00.
The following values will not work:
- 16 Sep 2005
- 16 September 2005
- 2005-09-16 00:00:00
- 2007-04-05T14:30Z (ISO8601 'T' with UTC timezone indicator)
- 23 Feb 2012 11:39:39 GMT+1300 (NZDT) (the format provided in its dateFormat <#macro /> example)
Failed to verify license - Invalid license on Alfresco Enterprise 4.0 TrialThis error can occur if you try to start the alfresco.war web application against an empty alf_data filestore, but the MySQL database is not empty. In this case, simply resetting the database can help:
drop database alfresco; create database alfresco;
com.gargoylesoftware.htmlunit.ScriptException: TypeError: Cannot find default value for object. (http://localhost:8080/share/res/yui/event/event-debug.js#385)This error occurred when I was trying to test my Alfresco Share application using JWebUnit. One proposed solution was to apply this patch to prevent null objects from being used in a toString() method.
However I found that this patch wasn't enough. My solution was to patch event-debug.js itself, and replace the failing code with:
/** * @method toString */ toString: function() { return "CustomEvent: " + "'" + (typeof this.type == 'undefined' ? 'undefined' : this.type) + "', " + "context: " + (typeof this.scope == 'undefined' ? 'undefined' : ""); }
Translate NodeRef to Person objectWhile not documented, people.getPeople("filter") returns a list of NodeRefs, not People. It is necessary to translate this into an object that can then be queried for properties.
From alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/templates/webscripts/org/alfresco/repository/site/membership/potentialmembers.get.js:
peopleFound = people.getPeople(filter, maxResults); for (i = 0; i < peopleFound.length; i++) { username = search.findNode(peopleFound[i]).properties.userName; // ... }
jsonUtils.encodeJSONString(x) is instead a freemarker.template.TemplateBooleanModel
<#escape x as jsonUtils.encodeJSONString(x)> "success": ${success}, </#escape>
The problem, I think, is that encodeJSONString() expects a String, not a boolean. Therefore:
<#escape x as jsonUtils.encodeJSONString(x)> "success": ${success?string("true","false")}, </#escape>
GetChildren: exceeded maximum number filter/sort propertiesThis occurred when I was trying to execute a listSites query on the siteService:
var all_sites = siteService.listSites("*" + value, "*", 250 /* max results */);
The problem is the "*" parameter for the site type filter. The correct way to search for these sites is via:
var all_sites = siteService.listSites(value, "", 250 /* max results */);
Type Error: items is undefinedIf you receive this Javascript exception when running a Share client-side page, then the problem may be that you are trying to read an invalid JSON response. Check Firebug and double check the syntax of the JSON the script is trying to process.
Secure FTP connection fails: bad record MACI was getting this error when trying to connect to an Alfresco Secure FTP server using FireFTP (using Auth TLS or Auth SSL). However using Filezilla (explicit secure FTP) worked fine. The error log that I was receiving:
220 FTP server ready AUTH SSL 234 Switching to SSL secure session PBSZ 0 502 Command not implemented
