As the World Figure Skating Championships begin at the National Exhibition Centre today, the sport is facing a different kind of difficulty. It used to be that the problems centred on judging and interpretation, as in Torvill and Dean's highly successful reshaping of ice dancing, which did not meet everyone's approval inside the sport in the mid-1980s, and the couple were unable to fathom the preferences of the powers that be on their brief return last year.
Then, of course, came Tonya Harding and Nancy Kerrigan and suddenly the sport that is theatre became the event that is prurience. Now figure skating is blessed with the talents of Nicole Bobek. Just when it seemed it was safe to go back in the ice-rink there appeared another monster from the murky depths.
But how murky and how monstrous is this 17-year-old, who sliced through sentimentality to win the United States title last month by out-skating Michelle Kwan, the girl who had waited in vain for Harding to be thrown out of the 1994 Olympics?
This year the throne from which Harding was unceremoniously removed awaited her, only for Bobek to slide on to it. But no sooner was the crown on Bobek's head than the stories started. She was a wild child, she had been found in a fellow skater's home, uninvited, money in hand. She was this, she was that.
She was relaxed and terribly normal-looking when she walked into a news conference at the NEC yesterday, feigning amazement that such a large crowd of reporters had gathered to hear her.
"The last two weeks have been very difficult for me and I have grown a lot as a result," she said. "All of you are aware of the things that have been brought up in the media and I would like to say that there is nothing new."
Perhaps so, but there was plenty that made news and it was presented in the way that any juicy tale will be.
Alongside Bobek's tale of woe, the comment by one of her rivals for the women's title, Lu Chen, that "I had quite a few problems" seemed almost laughable. But then, of course, she was talking about her skating in the qualifying session. Bobek had a few problems of that nature, too, but she shrugged those off as easily as she has dismissed those she has met with off the ice.
That impressed her coach, Richard Callaghan. "I was glad to see that when she did have a problem that it didn't really interfere with the programme," he said. "Any time that there was something that went downhill she came right back up again, and that hasn't always happened in the past."
Presumably, she skated her planned routines precisely, without impromptu variations, and that has not always happened in the past, either.
Neither Kwan nor Surya Bonaly, the European champion from France who took off her silver medal at the presentation ceremony last year after missing out on the world title to Yuka Sato, of Japan, have yet been forced into action here. Both were among the eight automatic qualifiers. Britain's Jenna Arrowsmith finished outside the top 11 who qualified from each group. But as the host nation's only representative, the 14-year-old will be allowed to enjoy her first World Championship.
Oksana Baiul, the Olympic champion who is taking a year out to perform in events outside the International Skating Union's control, misses the event. The Ukrainian needs to apply for reinstatement by the end of the month if she is to return to ISU-sanctioned events next year and pursue the amateur world title again. She cashed in on her Olympic gold by taking advantage of the vast increase in professional competitions and shows that were sparked by the huge attention drawn to the sport by the Harding- Kerrigan affair.
As Carlo Fassi, who coached John Curry, among other Olympic champions, has said: "It's very sad that to make skating popular we needed someone to beat up another one.
"There is another world now. It's very good for skating, but they are overexposing it."
In this country it takes something more wholesome, like a world or Olympic champion, to generate interest in a sport, and many will have been drawn to ice skating by Torvill and Dean. The championships will open with a reminder of them when the current crop of couples skate through the compulsory dances, which this time are the swinging and sweeping rumba and the more aggressively sexual Argentinian tango.
Now that Evgeny Platov has overcome his knee injury, he and his partner, Oksana Gritchuk, are back on the title trail after missing the European Championships. They should be pushed hard by the French pair, Sophie Moniotte and Pascal Lavanchy, who took silver last year, and the Finns Susanna Rakhamo and Petri Kokko, who beat the French to the European title last month.
Michelle Fitzgerald and Vincent Kyle, who finished 18th in the European Championship, carry the flag for Britain in their first world event.
The first day of competition ends with the short programme of the pairs, which was thrown wide open when the Germans, Mandy Wtzel and Ingo Stuer, took the European title. To do so they had to beat the world champions, Evgenia Shiskova and Vadim Naumov, who come from the traditional pairs power, Russia, and last year's world silver medallists, Radka Kovarikova and Rene Novotny, of the Czech Republic.
Here Britain is represented by Lesley Rogers and Michael Aldred. Since they hail from Solihull, they did not have to go far. But then again they might.
TODAY: Ice dance, two compulsory dances (11.30am). Opening ceremony (6.30pm). Pairs, short programme (7.15).
TOMORROW: Men, short programme (2.0). Pairs, free programme (6.30).

White liberals are the most unctuous, phony and insincere breed that has ever plagued the earth. While they publicly proclaim their boundless love for black Americans – their political agenda and policies have been killing them for decades.
From the socialistic dogmas of the Great Society to rabidly dangerous gun control laws – the inner cities have been morphed into violent cauldrons where innocent black children are gunned down by gutless thugs armed with illegal handguns and WIC cards.
Truth be told — welfare was nothing more than a green light for young black women to have children out of wed-lock. And the manifestations of this immoral practice have been nothing short of insidious.
(Lest we forget: Just prior to the implementation of the socialistic dogmas of the 60′s — the black family was, for the most part — intact and doing well financially.)
Cities such as Chicago, Detroit and New Orleans are beleaguered by gangs of fatherless cretins that roam about killing for sport while on the public dole. These adolescent killers (with their butts fully exposed) have been taught that the white man is the "devil" and is responsible for their sorry affairs and abject living conditions.
Forget the fact that their fathers abandoned them while they were still in the womb — white libs (via their feckless policies) force taxpayers to foot the bill every time a one of these irresponsible and spineless absconders impregnates (yet) another women who fails to understand the meaning of "keep your damn legs closed."

When Aircraft Pull Up Too Hard, - THEY BREAK |
Nov 8 2008, 11:41 AM
Group: Respected Member Posts: 2,198 Joined: 29-September 07 From: Hampshire, UK. Member No.: 2,274 |
The following sequence of images demonstrates what can happen to an aircraft if too severe a pull-up is attempted. The images were captured from a Farnborough Above and Beyond: The True Story of British Aviation free sampler disc that came with the January 2007 Issue of Aeroplane. The sequence was from a The Investigators part of the Main Movie.
Now I do not know the precise circumstances of the aircraft which could have been returning with battle damage but it is much more likely to have been filmed whilst under test. The aircraft appears to be a Lockheed Hudson. The Armstrong Whitworth Albermarle was very similar in form but the shape and positioning of the fins make it more likely to be a Hudson. The first image shows the aircraft in a shallow dive appearing just to the right of the large tree at the left. I have included trees and horizon in some shots so as to provide some idea of the height and distances moved. Next image shows the aircraft leveling out. In the next image trouble can be seen but less than obvious, compare the angle of attack of the starboard wing with that of the port. Now the next image shows clearly the result of torsional stresses appearing in the starboard outer wing. By the time we get to the next image failure is becoming obvious and proceeds apace.

In the next image the starboard outer mainplane having completed its detachment has caused the aircraft to move even further out of its flight envelope with the tail plane now clearly failing, the aircraft is of course doomed.

I didn't find this specific "wing failure," but Lockheed Hudson crashes are listed at: There was another similar Lockheed aircraft - the Ventura. However I have searched my copy of 'UK Flight Testing Accidents 1940-1971' without luck. I also checked out all the CAT 5s (write offs) on other twin finned, twin radial types especially those from Bristol even though their profiles were subtly, but distinctly, different such as the Brigand, Buckingham, Buckmaster and some marks of Beaufighter. I used to see examples of those Bristol types in the air in the early 1950s some family worked at Bristol's and my old man was a design draftsman for Rotol (prop's and gearboxes). I have seen the Brabazon in flight too. |

This is a unique mutoscope card depicting a beautiful young girl in an officer outfit painted by Zoë Mozert (1907 – 1993), born Alice Adelaide Moser, an American illustrator who was one of the early 20th century's most famous pin-up artists and models. This card was published in 1945 by Brown & Bigelow, Inc, a leading distributor of promotional products and calendar advertising.
The caption of this attractive card reads as, "AFTER ALL, EVERYBODY MAKES MISTAKES".
The history of the pin-up girl originates to the time of World War I, when President Woodrow Wilson formed the Division of Pictorial Publicity to create visual boost to persuade men to join the war effort. The pin-up girl's fame continued to rise throughout World War II, when soldiers would hang up an image of a pretty lady to remind them of their home country.
Mutoscope cards were published during the 1940s by the International Mutoscope Reel Company and dispensed by coin-operated vending machines in places such as amusement parks. Most Mutoscope cards are of "pin-up" material.
This one-of-a-kind mutoscope card is grated, encased, and slabbed by PSA, Professional Authenticator Sports as EX - MT 6. It measures 5 1/4 x 3 3/4.

This year, with a new gig as a Warriors assistant, he's apparently playing prisoners in San Quentin and maybe getting elbows to the face. At least that's what Toucher and Rich speculated this morning. So far, it's the only explanation we've heard anyone come up with for the way Scal showed up to Warriors media day yesterday.

"More Fun Than Fusion Has Any Right To Be" – Rhythm Magazine U.K. Don't call them a "supergroup", because guitarist Guthrie Govan (Steven Wilson, Asia/GPS), bassist Bryan Beller (Joe Satriani/Steve Vai/Dethklok) and drummer Marco Minnemann (Adrian Belew/Necrophagist/Steven Wilson/Joe Satriani) aren't just a high-powered muso one-off project. In just three years, they've put out three critically acclaimed albums, toured most of the world, and established themselves as one of the most musically original, refreshingly irreverent, and just plain entertaining instrumental rock/fusion acts out there right now. And they're here to stay. Currently the multi-national Aristocrats (Govan is British; Minnemann is German; Beller is American) are touring in support of their second studio release, appropriately named Culture Clash. The album debuted at #8 on the Billboard Contemporary Jazz charts – in between John Scofield and The Yellowjackets, mind you – and while most wouldn't classify their cheeky Zappa-meets-Mahavishnu-meets-Jeff Beck-meets-metal-meets-???? musical style as jazz, it is true that just about anything can happen onstage when The Aristocrats come to town. "For all [their] frenetic virtuosity it's always entertaining – thanks to a day-glo streak of surreal humor." –Guitarist U.K.

How to Teach a Dog to Meet New People
by Karin BargaResponsible canine and human socialization includes introducing a dog to people of all ages, sizes and ethnicities, wearing different clothing, glasses, hats, facial hair and in a variety of environments. A positive attitude toward new experiences is vital to socializing a dog, no matter what his age. Equally as important is respecting the dog's feelings if he is reluctant. It is safest to err on the side of caution if the dog exhibits any negative behavior.
Introducing Visitors at Home
Invite a few friends over, preferably people your dog has not previously met. Inform friends ahead of time to arrive in intervals and expect to wait outside several minutes after arrival while you give the dog instructions.
Instruct the dog to sit when the first visitor arrives. It does not matter how long it takes for the dog to sit, but he must sit quietly before your guest enters.
Praise the dog as he remains sitting quietly in place as your guest enters your home. If at any time the dog stands up or approaches your visitor before you ask him to, return him to his seated position.
Give your friend a dog treat and invite her over to your seated dog. Do not allow the dog to jump up on your friend. If he moves from a sit, return him to his seated position before continuing. Have your friend offer her hand for the dog to sniff and the treat as a reward for sitting.
Ask your visitor to make herself comfortable in another room while the dog remains sitting.
Instruct the dog to enter the other room and say hello. At this time your friend may pet the dog as he sniffs her clothing, shoes and skin. Eventually the dog will become comfortable with your friend's presence and most likely lie down somewhere nearby.
Have your friend leave the house and ring the doorbell in a few minutes to repeat the process. Characteristically, the dog will rush to the door and need instruction to sit, stay and wait for the guest to enter. Because dogs learn through repetition, the dog will settle into a routine after the same friend continues to enter and leave the house in the same manner. After three or four repetitions, have this friend remain seated in the other room.
Wait for the second visitor to arrive, start the process again with two guests in the house, and continue introducing the dog using the same routine.
Socializing in Public
Put your dog on a 6-foot leash before going on walks in public. Introduce him to strangers and gauge his comfort level during walks by asking people you meet to toss him the treats you have on hand. Incorporate basic training, such as sitting and staying, here to prevent him from jumping up on strangers. This activity helps reinforce that people are friendly.
Spend time at children's parks where the dog can learn the sights and sounds of children at play. Children move, speak and react differently and sometimes pose a challenge during socialization activities. Slowly allow a few children at a time around the dog and monitor his comfort level.
Expose your dog to as many new places as possible, giving him a variety of positive experiences with many different people.
Items You Will Need
- Dog treats
- 6-foot leash
- Basic obedience training will benefit a dog greatly prior to socialization.
- If at any time the dog shows aggressive behavior toward a person, remove him from the situation immediately. You may need to seek professional assistance.
- If the dog panics during socialization activities, do not ignore the behavior, as it may indicate an underlying problem that requires professional assistance.

Select Country
Ever-taller residential buildings in China require a dynamic market with regard to elevator technology. Indeed, high tech is required to securely compensate for high speeds, wind-related vibrations or even buildings shaking, to name but a few examples. Modern elevator technology is the specialist field of Shanghai-based STEP Electric Corporation. To make sure nothing is left to chance when it comes to elevator construction, the portfolio of the group of companies has included its own robots for some time now.
In early 2013, subsidiary company Shanghai STEP Robotics started operation, specialising in the manufacture of industrial robots for the high-tech production of elevators and cabins. The STEP robots are mainly used in welding lines, for example, for the guide rails for elevators. Extreme accuracy is required here to make sure that nothing goes wrong when the elevator is operational and all the safety regulations are met.
Extensive tests confirm system benefits
The most frequently used robot is a 6-axis model for arc welding. This welding method, which was originally rather performed manually, is being increasingly carried out by robots at STEP, not least for safety reasons. Exact spacing and precise positioning and
Pleased with the successful solution: Bill Lu, Senior Sales Engineer at Weidmüller (left) and Electrical Engineer Xiaofei Liu from STEP
guidance of the welding machine are critical to the success of the welding process. In line with these requirements, STEP has developed a special motion control unit and servo drives for axis control. For the purpose of decentralised control, every robot is equipped with a u-remote station from Weidmüller, which is connected to the superordinate control system via EtherCAT. An extensive test carried out before the system was configured confirmed the benefits of u-remote – minimal installation space combined with signal wiring that is particularly simple to handle.
Plenty of scope for development, from planning through to operation: u-remote is a compact addition to the decentralised switching cabinets for the robots
"No other system on the market offers the same benefits as u-remote when it comes to compactness and user-friendliness," affirms Li Peng, Head of Software Development at STEP. "Both installing the hardware and starting up the software through the standard browser was child's play. So we were able to connect binary push button signals, drive relays and contactors via digital output modules very quickly."
Extensive support during design-in and installation
In addition to u-remote's product benefits, STEP is also profiting from the extensive services offered by Weidmüller's Chinese support team. Bill Lu, Weidmüller Senior Sales Engineer, explains: "Our partner could rely on us at all times during the design-in and installation phase. For example, we assisted STEP in connecting u-remote to the EtherCAT master and actively supported the team during the system configuration process. And even now that the solution has been commissioned, we are still working closely together. For instance, we offer product training sessions, keep safety stock in our warehouse and help to maintain our customer's standard and engineering applications." With a smile, he concludes: "Due to our positive collaborative relationship, we are already discussing with STEP other complex system solutions comprising both relays
and power feed-in solutions based on electrical connectivity. We will therefore also be supporting STEP on future projects when it comes to the precision alignment of robots and elevators."

My DIY: No sew faux fur pillow
While other people were building entire beds, I hide some stuff in the name of decorating.
This faux fur bolster is a cape I thrifted. I loved the silver-grey color of the fur, but unfortunately the cape was sized for a linebacker, and I never got around to altering it. It took up too much space in the closet, so I folded in the collar, rolled it up and pinned it. You could do this with that fur fabric you've never done anything with.
Voila. Free fur pillow. For more faux fur projects for people who actually sew, check out Burda's roundup.
In other news, we completely rearranged the living room, which is a big exciting deal when it's practically your only room. (And, due to the wonders of blogging, I know it was almost exactly two years ago this month since we last moved our furniture around and then did it again a week later.)
It also allows me to highlight my beloved media cabinet, which Mr. Bromeliad made a couple of years ago, just so you know we do serious DIYs also. Sometimes. At least every few years. Or at least he does.
I puffed up our sagging sofa pillows without buying any pillow fill. I have a vast collection of unused but somehow valuable throw pillows. I stuffed one throw pillow inside of each sofa pillow and rearranged the loose fill around it. Now all four sofa pillows are fluffed like new, and I gained about two square feet of storage space where the throw pillows used to be.
I love the new room arrangement. The room feels bigger even though there is more in it. Now it just needs something rustic on top the armoire and some more lighting and some art on the wall and, oh, some throw pillows. Maybe a little one on that chair made with this fabric.

Survey of International Expertise
The Master of Arts in International Studies is an exciting and innovative interdisciplinary program.
The MA in International Studies program will provide you with many benefits:
INTERCULTURAL UNDERSTANDING Unlike other international studies programs, the MA in International Studies program focuses on the process and dynamics of international intercultural understanding. It is specifically designed to prepare you to interact more effectively with persons from other cultures, particularly in professional settings.
INTERDISCIPLINARITY The MA in International Studies program is truly interdisciplinary and draws its strength from the cooperation of several departments in the Thomas Harriot College of Arts and Sciences and various professional schools and colleges. Each of the four MA in International Studies core courses you will take features a different discipline (anthropology, geography, political science, global and multicultural discourse). You can choose from a range of concentrations, e.g., business, international public administration, Hispanic Studies, public health, international education, security studies, economic development, or design your own.
COHERENCE AND FLEXIBILITY The MA in International Studies program has a solid core of required courses and a great deal of flexibility in the design of its concentrations. The core courses provide you with global perspectives on the interrelations between economic, political, cultural and environmental systems in the world. They also cultivate your skills in communications across cultures, conflict resolution as well as knowledge of professional practices. The four-course concentrations allow you to acquire essential skills in a professional discipline, to pursue interdisciplinary study of a major international issue, and to enhance your knowledge of a world region. The international field experience gives you first-hand knowledge of another culture.
DIVERSITY MA in International Studies students come from across the US and around the world. They represent many races and ethnicities. MA in International Studies students also represent the full spectrum of political positions, religions, ideologies, ethnic groups, and life experience. Each student brings a different perspective to the various program components. This diversity contributes to the richness of life in the MA in International Studies Program. photos
INTERNATIONAL EXPERTISE You will draw upon the international expertise and contacts of a large and diverse faculty that includes experts on many regions of the world. The Office of International Affairs coordinates a growing range of field experiences for students.
CAREER OPPORTUNITIES Graduates of the MA in International Studies program have found success in a wide variety of fields where their skills in understanding and working with people from other countries and cultures have served them well. MA in International Studies students have gone on to careers in:
MA in International Studies graduates have also been accepted for further graduate study in medicine, law, business, political science, geography, and history.

Good notes posted to Ruby on Rails
RSS feedLoading fixtures in migrations
This helper is wrapper around Fixtures#create_fixtures and just load fixtures from specified directory (db/migrate/data by default):
class ActiveRecord::Migration def self.load_data(filename, dir = 'db/migrate/data') Fixtures.create_fixtures(File.join(RAILS_ROOT, dir), filename) end end
It is usefull for tables with data like country list:
class CreateCountries < ActiveRecord::Migration def self.up create_table :countries do |t| t.string :name, :code, :null => false t.timestamps end load_data :countries end def self.down drop_table :countries end end
:conditions examples
:conditions => {:login => login, :password => password}
:conditions => ['subject LIKE :foo OR body LIKE :foo', {:foo => 'woah'}]
(from the book "The Rails Way")
Migration helpers
You can add your own migration helpers as references:
Code example
class ActiveRecord::ConnectionsAdapters::TableDefinition def counter_caches(*args) args.each { |col| column("#{col}_count", :integer, :default => 0) } end end class CreateUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration def self.up create_table :users do |t| t.string :first_name, :last_name, :email t.counter_caches :photos, :messages t.timestamps end end def self.down drop_table :users end end
select_tag with options_for_select example
An example of using options_for_select with select_tag
select_tag 'user_id', options_for_select(@users.collect{ |u| [u.name, u.id] })
This would generate something like:
<select id="user_id" name="user_id"> <option value="1">Brad</option> <option value="2">Angie</option> <option value="3">Jenny</option> </select>
Nested resources in form_for
If you like doing things RESTfully and have a model relationship like:
Post_ has many Comments_
Then you can construct a form_for within your view to mirror this relationship when creating comments:
form_for [@post, @comment] do |f| ... end
You also need to make sure your routes reflect this relationship:
map.resources :post, :has_many => [:comments]
Demo: select onchange invoke an ajax
select("order", "customer_id", o.customer.collect {|c| [ c.label, c.id ] },
{:include_blank => true, :selected => o.customer_id }, :onchange => remote_function(:update => "message_id", :method => "put", :with => "'item=' + value", :url => { :controller => :orders, :action => :set_customer_id, :id => order.id}))
Allows for reverse merging where its the keys in the calling hash that wins over those in the other_hash. This is particularly useful for initializing an incoming option hash with default values:
def setup(options = {}) options.reverse_merge! :size => 25, :velocity => 10 end
The default :size and :velocity is only set if the options passed in doesn't already have those keys set.
Rails 2.1 migrations
Things to take note of are the lack of 'column spam', which didn't convey much semantic meaning. Also the combination of multiple fields per line with the same type.
references is also a nice helper to convey relationship information (t.references :role is equivilant to t.integer :role_id). references also takes another parameters, see the method for more details.
class CreateUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration def self.up create_table :users do |t| t.string :first_name, :last_name, :email t.text :address t.date :date_of_birth t.references :role t.timestamps end add_index :users, :email end def self.down drop_table :users end end
Better slug generation (essentially a to_param replacement)
Monkey Patching String
class String def slugify returning self.downcase.gsub(/'/, '').gsub(/[^a-z0-9]+/, '-') do |slug| slug.chop! if slug.last == '-' end end end
In a model, or wherever
def to_param # Don't need the id here if we're looking up the model by the stored slug. "#{id} #{title}".slugify end
Is it really deprecated?
I think the deprecation notice is in the wrong place, it is actually the instance method ActiveRecord::Validations#validate that has been deprecated.
The same applies to ActiveRecord::Validations#validate_on_create and ActiveRecord::Validations#validate_on_update: they have both been deprecated in favour of the class methods validate_on_create and validate_on_update.
helper method to partial
concat can be useful for rendering a block to a partial from a helper:
def block_to_partial(partial_name, options = {}, &block) options.merge!(:body => capture(&block)) concat(render(:partial => partial_name, :locals => options), block.binding) end
This would be particularly useful if you had some partial to help you out with rounded corners, for example. So, in your helper:
def rounded_corners &block block_to_partial("shared/rounded_corners", {}, &block) end
In your view you could have something like:
<% rounded_corners do -%> This text is surrounded by rounded corners <% end -%>
You would have to create some partial in
And it would look something like:

 . . . <%= body -%>

Generate an observer
Generating an observer from the command line follows the usual pattern:
script/generate observer audit
This will create a model called:
Where you declare before_destroy matters
Beware that where you declare a before_destroy callback matters if you have any "acts_as" type declarations, that also declare before_destroy callbacks. A good example is the acts_as_nested_set. If you specify acts_as_nested_set prior to your before_destroy, then acts_as_nested_set will go through and destroy all children first, then your callback will run (at which point children will be empty). Thus, if your before_destroy callback needs to examine the children, it will not work properly. Putting your before_destroy callback ahead of acts_as_nested_set or anything else that declares a before_destroy is key in such cases.
Required Reading
The details for using layout (such as possible values for the conditions hash) can be found in ActionController::Layout::ClassMethods.
Convert strings to Dates
Uses the undocumented Date._parse method. Some usage examples:
'06/15/2008'.to_date # => Sun, 15 Jun 2008 '20080615'.to_date # => Sun, 15 Jun 2008 '2008-06-15'.to_date # => Sun, 15 Jun 2008 'Sun, 15 Jun 2008'.to_date # => Sun, 15 Jun 2008
For more information
See Base class.
For more information
See ActiveMailer::Base.
List of statuses
You can view a full list of statuses at http://dev.rubyonrails.org/browser/trunk/actionpack/lib/action_controller/status_codes.rb.
head can be called with a symbol or a status code:
Using head with a symbol
head :length_required # 411 Length Required head :ok # 200 OK
Using head with a status code
head 404 # 404 Not Found
Using counters with collections
When you're rendering a collection partial, the partial_name_counter variable contains the position of the current element in the collection. For example:
<%= render(:partial => 'example', :collection => %w(rails-doc is cool)) %>
Now in _example.html.erb:

Element: <%= example %> (index: <%= example_counter %>)

It would produce:

Element: rails-doc (index: 1)

Element: is (index: 2)

Element: cool (index: 3)

As you can see, indexing starts from 1.
Link to same URL with different format
Use params.merge as options. Ex.
<%= link_to "RSS feed", params.merge(:format => :rss), :class => "feed_link" %>
Using a specific layout
To choose the layout (or no layout) for a method call the render method with a :layout option.
Add empty option and text is -select-
select :object, :method, options, :prompt => '-select-'
Getting textfield values into "link_to_remote" via Javascript Prototype
Use Prototype to get the value of a text field via Javascript, to pass to the 'link_to_remote' helper using code similar to below:
link_to_remote 'Link Name', {:update => "foo", :url => {:controller => "bar", :action => "baz"}, :with => "'model[textfield]=' + $F('textfield_id')"}
Connections to multiple databases
establish_connection can be used to connect to multiple databases. The immediate downside is that your rake migrations may not work properly without hacking.
In each model that resides in a different database we call:
establish_connection :different_database
You can check they are working by hitting script/console with:
>> App.connection.instance_eval {@config[:database]} => "app_development" >> AnotherDatabase.connection.instance_eval {@config[:database]} => "another_database"
Now doing a call to AnotherDatabase.find() will connect to the AnotherDatabase database and start returning results.
error in block code example
I guess there's an error in this part of the code:
link_to_function("Show me more", nil, :id => "more_link") do |page| page[:details].visual_effect :toggle_blind page[:more_link].replace_html "Show me less" end
It doesn't work. It should be:
link_to_function("Show me more", nil, :id => "more_link") do |page| page[:details].toggle "Blind" page[:more_link].replace_html "Show me less" end
Using Rails 2.1.0
Rails 2.1 caching internals
Rails 2.1 caching features are pretty much undocumented. Rob Anderton has documented some internal stuff here:

Seasoned observers were generally of the opinion that this year's crop of odd titles were less curious than many from past years. Considerable doubts have been expressed about whether this year's winner - which is already known to cognoscenti as Pocket Sex Joy - is truly fit to stand on the same shelf as such notable past winners as Greek Rural Postmen and their Cancellation Codes (which took the award last year ahead of God's Chewable Vitamin C for the Spirit and Old Tractors and the Men Who Love Them), or the 1992 winner, How to Avoid Huge Ships.
Other worthy titles that have gained this singular honour include Oral Sadism and the Vegetarian Personality, Versailles: the View from Sweden, and Highlights in the History of Concrete.

A Great Run!
4 comments:
Someone told me that to get rid of side stiches (I get them too) to put both of your arms up to streatch out and to make sure you are breathing well...not sure if that is true or not, but it helps me! maybe the cure is more in my head, I just know that it normally passes pretty quickly when I do that. Of course I do get a few weird looks. If anyone knows of something better, I would love to know too!
Congrats on your time! That is awesome!!!- AnonymousJuly 27, 2011 at 5:41 PM
Breathe! When you get side stitches like that slow down and take some good deep breaths and that should help them subside. Also, I think to prevent them you should try forcing yourself to start your runs slower. Your first mile should be the slowest with each following mile a little faster than the previous so that on the last mile you have enough in the tank to really finish strong! I think if you make it a point to start out slower, which will help keep your breathing under control, you might begin to see the side stitch thing go away altogether. This is easier said than done though (especially since I'm not a fast runner to begin with!)...I have to remind myself CONSTANTLY on my first mile or two to slow up because when I'm at mile 8 or 9 or whatever I'm going to need the energy reserve!

More than 9,300 people applied for jobs at the Barclays Center, opening Sept. 28 in Brooklyn according to Atlantic Yards Report, quoting Crain's (subscription).
Job seekers heard about the work from postcards mailed to Housing Authority residents by developer Forest City Ratner, which also visited local churches. About 2,000 jobs are available; roughly 1,900 are part time and 100 full time.
Atlantic Yards Report asks, "Does this mean the arena's a savior, or that Brooklyn has a lot of unemployed people?"
Many of the jobs are likely at the Barclays' many bars, nightclubs and restaurants which will spill thousands of drunken, brawling patrons out into the surrounding residential streets at 2 a.m.

I am so excited! woohoo! So, have any thoughts on how those two are going to get back together? Belle and Rumple?
I am not sure I have any guesses yet. It is going to be epic. I was just reading an article today that stuff is going to get crazy in the last two episodes. -can't wait!-
I cannot wait either lol
Maybe that Mr Gold is going to discover whom Beautiful is to lock into a hopital and to make its possible for her delivered, I don't know, it would be beautiful if it was he who would save her
by AresLover452 ^^
I know RC said something about them not meeting again in the fairy tail land, so I wonder if he will save her from the hospital. I regret so much not having the ability to watch the show tonight! I should see if I can get my TV to pick up the signal......maybe this should be my goal
I was really hoping my TV could pick up the signal Oh well.
Yeah. will need to wait!!! I have been seeing things pop up for the next episodes and I am starting to wonder if i need to cut myself off to keep the finale really, really good. Like what happened with Red was good because it was a surprise but it would of been really easy to blow it!!!

The Horse Forum
- Horse Breeding
- - Paint Registration Question
Paint Registration Question I had no idea where to put this, and this seemed as good a place as any since a lot of equine breeders are obviously involved with registries. I did some research but can't seem to find an answer, I didn't find anything on the APHA website, but maybe I didn't look hard enough? Does anybody have any idea what the rules are on registering foals from deceased parents? I recently purchased a 2 year old unregistered Paint filly, and when I inquired about registering her, the owner said she can't be registered because her sire died and his papers have been turned in already. But this confuses me - if a proper breeding report was done, why on earth should it matter if he died? The breeding report should show that X stallion was bred to X mare in 2006, and the resulting 2007 foal was never registered, shouldn't it? So I'm curious if this is actually a rule and the reasoning behind it, or if I'm being hogwashed because of some fishy circumstances? |
If the sire and dam are DNA typed on record and you can get their owners signatures on a breeder certifacate, then pay the required fees it shouldn't be an issue to reg the horse. |
I believe you are correct about the parents being deceased not mattering and also about the breeding report. If the breeding report was done, the dam owner should be able to register the horse and transfer it to you. I would call the APHA for help. |
They will want you to have it Parentage Verified but thats just a matter of pulling some mane hairs and paying the fee. |
well i'm not running into that question but something similar.... transferring my moms horse into my name? she (my mom) passed away and I would like to transfer him into my name. has anyone had to do this? |
Who ever was in charge of your moms legal affairs can sign a transfer and send proof they have the legal right to do so and APHA will accept that signature. |

John Boehner and Paul Ryan's Clean Debt Limit Imperative: Raise and then Raze the Debt Ceiling (Part II)
Paul Ryan is living large. John Boehner is ready to double-dip from the links. Too bad Uncle Sam is bust. Within days, our great nation will be unable to honor its Treasury bond obligations and without funds to issue payments for Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Veterans, national defense, federal courts, or any other federal programs.

Her profile is 70% complete
I graduated from Massachusetts College of Art with a BFA in metalsmithing. I have a lot of training with jewelry, and even more with bronze casting. Bronze casting is almost impossible to do in one's basement. Thus, we have jewelry, made mostly from copper, the closest material in the jeweler's lexicon to bronze. I love copper. I love the way it looks, and the way it moves. You'll love it, too.
