The names of Tiger Woods and a woman with whom he allegedly had an affair, Rachel Uchitel, are the top two rising search terms on Google Insights on December 3.
Searches for the two names have increased as the news that Rachel Uchitel flew to California to meet with her high-profile lawyer, Gloria Allred, spread across celebrity blogs this week. The same tabloids claim Allred will hold a press conference on Thursday, December 3 to discuss Rachel Uchitel's relationship with Tiger Woods.
On December 2, Tiger Woods updated his personal blog writing, "I have let my family down and I regret those transgressions with all of my heart." He added, "Personal sins should not require press releases and problems within a family shouldn't have to mean public confessions."
Searches for the terms "Cyber Monday" and "Cyber Monday deals" are still showing signs of growth from the last seven days.
The search terms with the most significant growth worldwide in the last seven days as measured by Google Insights, recorded on December 3 at 9:30 AM GMT are:
1. rachel uchitel (Breakout)
2. tiger woods (+4,250%)
3. cyber monday deals (+3,700%)
4. cyber monday (+2,000%)
5. google wave (+180%)
6. pole emploi (+70%)
7. paranormal activity (+50%)
8. macys (+50%)
9. toys r us (+40%)
10. torrents (+40%)
*Breakout defines a search term that has experienced a change in growth greater than 5000 percent.

A Year in Review: 11 Inspiring Moments from 2016
Dec 22, 2016Since 2001, the Clinton Foundation has worked to improve lives around the world and build upon President Clinton's legacy of public service.
In 2011, TechStars commited to doubling the size of the TechStars Network of affiliated start-up accelerators from 25 to 50 by the end of 2013, which will contribute toward the acceleration of more than 500 companies annually. Start-up accelerators are short-term mentorship programs that provide workspace, seed capital, and extensive skill-building to early stage start-ups to help them rapidly shore up and scale their businesses. TechStars, an accelerator based in Boulder, Boston, Seattle, and New York, launched the TechStars Network in early 2011 to share knowledge and coordinate efforts with other start-up accelerators in the United States and overseas.

CNIDARIA : CONICA : Aglaopheniidae | SEA ANEMONES AND HYDROIDS |
Aglaophenia kirchenpaueri |
Description: The main stems of this species bear side branches in alternating series on opposite sides giving a feather-like colony. The colour of living specimens is brown with a green tinge due to zooxanthellae. The feeding polyps are borne in a single series along the side branches, each surrounded by three defensive polyps. A specific feature is the basal leaf of the corbula which projects downwards in this species, rather than being curled round like the rest. Typically 5 cm in height by about 1 cm across the colony.
Habitat: This is a scarce Aglaophenia species found in clear water deeper than 10 metres, where it forms loose clumps on horizontal rock surfaces in moderate tidal streams and moderate to high levels of wave exposure.
Distribution: In the British Isles this species seems to be confined to the south and west, with records from Skomer, Lundy, the Blasket Islands and Galway Bay.
Similar Species: All species of Aglaophenia are similar. Gymnangium montagui is more robust and does not have corbulae.

Cake Decorating Supplies - Sydney Cbd
Decorating By Rose1510 Updated 15 Jan 2014 , 4:21am by Stormii
Hi everyone
I am new to this forum so apologies in advance if this question has been asked in a previous post!
I am a part time baker and work full time in the Sydney CBD.
Most Saturdays I spend rushing over to the supply store to get anything I need for decorating that following weekend/s. However there's always a couple of things I forget to buy!
To make my (and everyone else with the same issue!) lives easier, does anyone know of a supply store in the Sydney CBD where we can get most supplies last minute?
My only other option would be to purchase online and pay $10 postage and pray that it comes in time.
Thanks in advance
Rose xo

The first of these quibbles is quite obvious in that, while there are a number of different size replacement tips, there are no alternative types of tip. So if you're a fan of foam or single flange silicone tips, you're going to be left wanting. That said, the default tips are very comfortable and I had no problems wearing the medium sized ones (pictured) for most of a nine hour flight and the sound isolation from them is only bettered by deeply inserted foam tips. It is rather ironic that an apparently customisable set of earphones doesn't have choice in the most obvious department, though.
My second complaint is the carry case. It certainly looks like it should be useful but it very quickly becomes obvious this isn't the case (no pun intended). It's designed to carry the earphones with tips and cable attached and also has room for a spare pair each of the bass and treble ports. However, as well as the fact it is inadequate in that it only carries four out of the 12 spare bass and treble ports, it also has a peculiar cable management system.
The rubber recessed section that holds the phones flips up to reveal a cable reel arrangement underneath. However the reel is fixed to the body of the case so to wind the cable you need to either spin the whole case or wrap the cable manually. In fairness, it's not inherently difficult but is rather overcomplicated and certainly no easier than the simple 'wrap it round your hand and shove it in' method used by the likes of Shure and Klipsch. That said, when packed the case is considerably more compact than either of the above.
My final complaint is something I've already touched on and that's the spare port storage method. Ok, it's forgivable that there isn't room for all the spares in the main carrying case but the little piece of perforated cardboard is hardly a worthy backup. For a start, it doesn't even include enough holes to carry all the spares - the ++treble ports are left rolling around the box - but even if it did I would still consider it falling short. At the very least there should be enough holes for all the ports (spares and defaults) so that replacing ports doesn't require you to put down the spares mid-change - rummaging around under your neighbours seat looking for a tiny transparent piece of plastic after it's been jolted from your seatback table during a bit of turbulence isn't my idea of good mid-flight etiquette, even if said neighbour is sleeping. To my way of thinking, the ideal would be an enclosed plastic cartridge akin to the sort of thing drills bits are stored in.
Just a thought about headphones in general, shouldn't they be as accurate as possible and leave the treble and/or bass adjustments to the source?
A fair point cjb110 but that simply isn't the case. All headphones have a distinct timbre and often choosing a pair of headphones is less about whether they're truly accurate or not than just whether you prefer a bassy or trebly sound.
Also, having had another listen to these earphones recently i have to say I'm even more impressed than when I first heard them. I stil maintain the adjustability brings little to the table but in their default setting these phones do sound great. Bass is strong without sounding muffled, clarity is also mightily impressive. Most of all, though, they just sound wonderfully neutral. The price is still too high to change the scores but these are definitely worth considering.

Yu-Be Moisturizing Skin Cream
Yu-Be Moisturizing Skin Cream Reviews
Heals and Softens Beautifully
I like this cream a lot for extremely dry skin such as chapped lips, hands, elbows, knees, and my feet (oh, my feet develop a shell in the winter, I swear!). What continues to amaze me is that the chief ingredient is glycerin, a natural humectant which attracts and maintains moisture in the skin. Never underestimate the power of pure glycerin. It is the sole ingredient in my much-loved "O'Keeff...read moree's Working Hands" Cream (about $7.99 on Amazon). It heals cuts and will change my skin to a much better state overnight. Yu-Be takes it a little further and adds Vitamins E, B2, and camphor (thus, the foul smell). Camphor is used to soothe irritations and stimulate blood circulation. I like this cream. I like O'Keefe's more because it works just as well sans the off-putting odor for a lower price (thus, this loses two stars). But it is a very good product, all the same. — 3 years, 2 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful
Feels so soft....
Got this as a sample. I love how this evaporates so quickly. It has that greasy texture of petroletum which made me kind of hesitant to try at first because I was scared it was going to leave my skin greasy. Surprisingly it didn't! It is by far the most unique skin cream I've ever tried. It absorbed quickly leaving my skin so smooth and soft. I just don't like the scent. It smells exactly like Carmex and I wish they had more scents to this. Otherwise I would have given it a 10. — 4 years, 1 month agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 3 people said helpful
Super Soft
I little greasy. Makes hands and feet Super soft. I appy at nite. Has distict smell kinda like a vapor rub. Very pricey. — 7 years, 10 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

The Winner by a Nosepass (Japanese: カナズミジム!ノズパスの秘密兵器!! Kanazumi Gym! Nosepass's Secret Weapon!!) is the 16th episode of the Advanced Generation series, and the 290th episode of the Pokémon anime. It was first broadcast in Japan on March 13, 2003, and in the United States on January 10, 2004.
Spoiler warning: this article may contain major plot or ending details. |
Pikachu is getting pretty good at its Iron Tail attack and that's a good thing. Ash is finally about to take on Roxanne, the leader of the Rustboro City Gym. He's going to need all the help he can get to take down her Geodude. May, on the other hand, isn't really looking forward to the battle. In fact, she announces that she's not going to be a trainer anymore. She wants to become a Pokémon Coordinator and compete in contests instead. When the battle begins, it doesn't look like Ash has much of a chance. Roxanne's Geodude knocks out Treecko pretty quickly. It's all up to Pikachu. Electric attacks aren't going to help much against a strong Rock Type—but Ash is very clever and Pikachu not only brings down Geodude, but it wipes out Nosepass with its newly perfected Iron Tail Attack. Ash defeats Roxanne and receives his Stone Badge.
A day after their adventure at the Trainer's School, the episode begins with Ash and Pikachu having some last-minute training with Iron Tail. Over breakfast, Ash confides that Iron Tail is still hit-or-miss, but what is more surprising is that May wants to pass up on the Gym battle. When the others ask why, May admits that she started her journey as an excuse to travel, and not having liked Pokémon when she began, but later had found her true calling in Pokémon Contests. Thus, she decides to become a Coordinator. Ash is particularly supportive of her decision, and he and Brock agree to do whatever it takes to help. Meanwhile, at a nearby playground, Team Rocket learns that Roxanne is the Rustboro Gym Leader, and vows to take their revenge for what had happened the previous episode.
At the Gym, May and Max remarks that it is different compared to the Petalburg Gym, they are greeted by Roxanne and some of her senior students working at the Gym as interns. Expecting two battles in succession, Roxanne respects May's decision to pass and become a Coordinator instead. After exchanging more formalities, including allowing the battle to be filmed for the Pokémon Trainer's School, Ash and Roxanne begin their two-on-two Gym Battle. Max is also excited due to this being the first Gym Battle that he will see in person (to Brock's surprise), as he explains that Norman did not permit May or Max to watch his battles since he believed that they would distract the challenger.
Roxanne leads off with Geodude, while Ash sends out Treecko. Though Treecko has the type advantage, Brock notes that Treecko does not know any Grass attacks, rendering the point moot. Ash starts with Treecko using Quick Attack, which Geodude replies with a Mega Punch, sending Treecko flying. Treecko recovers from the fall to hit with a midair Pound, which makes its mark, but does not knock it out. Geodude recovers with Rollout, but when Treecko tries to jump and dodge, Geodude follows, and it knocks out Treecko with another Mega Punch.
Ash decides to send in Pikachu, surprising the senior students and Roxanne. Undeterred, Pikachu starts by destroying the rock field with Thunder. Meanwhile, Team Rocket begins their plan to tunnel into the Gym and stealing Pikachu by shoveling by hand — as James notes, this would save them money because they waste so much with their more elaborate schemes. Back at the battle, though Pikachu has destroyed the field, he has yet to damage Geodude. Roxanne notes that it allows Geodude greater maneuverability, and better use of Rock Throw. Pikachu dodges the rocks with Quick Attack, but takes a Mega Punch. When Roxanne tries to use Rollout to finish Pikachu off, though, Geodude gets stuck on the softer battlefield, making an opening for Pikachu to get close with Quick Attack and get the knockout with Thunder. Roxanne admits that Ash has talent, as Geodude had never been knocked out by an Electric-type attack alone.
Roxanne next sends out Nosepass, a Pokémon unfamiliar to Ash. Pikachu starts off with Iron Tail, which makes its mark, but when Pikachu tries to use it again, it fails. Nosepass responds with a Rock Tomb, trapping Pikachu. However, Pikachu breaks free with Thunder. Nosepass then uses Sandstorm, making Pikachu unable to find Nosepass, and allowing Nosepass to pin Pikachu to the battlefield. However, Pikachu escapes, and manages to escape another Rock Tomb with a Quick Attack. Pikachu attempts to disorient Nosepass by running circles around Nosepass, which allows another shot with Iron Tail. However, the move fails again. Brock notes that Pikachu is too worn out from running around, and thus does not have the time to store up energy for a successful Iron Tail. Nosepass tries to finish off Pikachu with Zap Cannon, but Pikachu dodges in time. The attack, however, hits James' shovel as it breaks through the Gym floor, shocking Team Rocket and sending them flying out of their tunnel.
While Ash ponders why Nosepass could use an Electric attack, Roxanne tells him that Zap Cannon was inspired by Ash's own strategy of keeping a surprise attack (as was the case with Pikachu and Iron Tail). Pikachu, however, though worn out, can still battle. Anticipating another Iron Tail, Nosepass uses Zap Cannon again, to which Ash tells Pikachu to take the hit head-on. As he is low on power, the Zap Cannon recharges Pikachu instead, paralyzing Nosepass and allowing it to be hit by another Iron Tail. This time, it is successful, and Nosepass is knocked out. This earns Ash the match victory and the Stone Badge.

A notebook, also known as laptop, is a portable computer. When you are looking for the right notebook, it is important to know where you are going to work with it. Do you want to use it on the road? Choose a model with a special energy-saving \'mobile\' processor, a good battery and a reasonably small display. This will allow you to work longer with the same battery and saves you the trouble of carrying around a large display that consumes a lot of precious battery power. Or will you be using you notebook mainly in places where you will have access to a power outlet? Then choose a desktop processor (more processing power for less money) and an ordinary battery. This will save you a lot of money, which you could then spend on a bigger screen. You\'ll work faster because you can view more information at once and it\'s great for multimedia!

Tibetan Scholar Sentenced to Ten Years in Prison after Writing Book on History and Culture
A young Tibetan writer and teacher has smuggled out a letter from prison saying he is serving a ten-year sentence linked to his unpublished book, 'The Restless Himalayas', in which he writes about Tibetan geography, history and religion. In his letter, Dolma Kyab appeals for help from United Nations committees on human rights
A young Tibetan writer and teacher has smuggled out a letter from prison saying he is serving a ten-year sentence linked to his unpublished book. Twenty-nine year old Dolma Kyab, who is known among his friends for his passionate concern for Tibet's environment, was detained in March 2005 and is being held in Chushur (Chinese: Qushui) prison south-west of Lhasa on charges that appear to be of 'endangering state security'. In his letter from prison, Dolma Kyab appeals for help from United Nations committees on human rights, and says that he was imprisoned because of the ideas expressed on Tibet in his unpublished manuscript. A group of well-known Tibetan and Chinese writers have written a letter calling for his release.
In his letter from prison, which was written last November and reached Tibetan friends in exile, Dolma Kyab said that the reason for his conviction was his unpublished book, 'The Restless Himalayas', in which he writes about Tibetan geography, history and religion. In the letter, a copy of which has been obtained by ICT, he says: "They [Chinese officials] think that what I wrote about nature and geography was also connected to Tibetan independence...this is the main reason of my conviction, but according to Chinese law, the book alone would not justify such a sentence. So they announced that I am guilty of the crime of espionage."
No official information about the charges against Dolma Kyab, who was working as a history teacher in a Lhasa school prior to his arrest, is currently available. But his letter indicates that he may have been accused of offences involving espionage or 'state secrets' (Chinese Criminal Law, Articles 110, 111),1 and for this reason his trial was likely to have been closed to the public.2 The crime of stealing or passing on 'state secrets' is one of the most serious political offences in China and Tibet and can be punishable by execution. 'State secrets' cover any information deemed to be secret by the Chinese state, and would often be regarded as public knowledge in many other countries.
Following his sentencing on September 16, 2005, Dolma Kyab appealed against the conviction, but the court upheld the sentence on November 30, 2005, and transferred him to Chushur prison, according to the Tibetan Center for Human Rights and Democracy. In his letter, Dolma Kyab says that during a visit by the United Nations Special Rapporteur on Torture Manfred Nowak to Chushur prison last November,4 he was removed and hidden. He writes: "Therefore I did not have a chance to talk about the real situation here and about my unfair trial."
Dolma Kyab, who is from Haibei (Tibetan: Tsojang) Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Qinghai (the Tibetan area of Amdo) was a highly educated intellectual with a Masters degree who felt more comfortable writing in Chinese than Tibetan, and also knew Japanese, according to friends. He studied history and geography at Qinghai Normal University and graduated in 1999, doing postgraduate studies at Beijing University until 2002. The manuscript of his book is mostly written by hand in neat Chinese characters.
In November 2003, Dolma Kyab left Tibet to travel into exile, and studied English and Hindi in Dharamsala, India, base of the Dalai Lama and the Tibetan exile government. While in exile, he worked on his manuscript, which includes chapters on Tibet history and geography, Tibetan sovereignty, democracy, and religious belief. His manuscript begins with an emotional account of his love for his parents and country, and refers to his spiritual beliefs: "I grew up in the cradle of my nation. I saw my people live in a higher place in this world. But when I lay on the ground to watch the world, I cried. Those tears were a reasonable response to what was happening in the world. I grew up with the love of my parents. When my parents' foreheads were creased with love, I cried. These were tears of emotion. Therefore I decided that I would do something for my nation and people like my parents.
"I know that doing things, even contributing one's life to the cause of a nation, raises very difficult questions. I would rather use my words to talk to other people than be an example to lead other people."
Dolma Kyab also writes in philosophical terms about the concept of Tibetan identity and sovereignty, and the Tibetan peoples' wish for the Dalai Lama to return to Tibet. He explores the relationship between Chinese and Tibetans, saying that the reason for the 'political burden' suffered by Tibetans, is the way in which the Chinese "impose their way of thinking onto Tibetans", thus "destroying the concept the Tibetans have of themselves". According to the Tibetan Center for Human Rights and Democracy, in some of his writings Dolma Kyab apparently gives information on sensitive topics such as the location and number of Chinese military camps in Tibet.
The manuscript also refers to Chinese and Tibetan friends who are dear to him. Friends of Dolma Kyab confirm that he had strong friendships with young Chinese intellectuals as well as Tibetans.
A Tibetan friend of Dolma Kyab, who is now living in exile in India and is also a former political prisoner, told ICT: "Dolma Kyab's main motivation in writing his book was to express the opinions of Tibetan youth on many different issues relating to Tibet today, for instance - what they think about Tibet's history, culture, human rights, democracy, literature, and so on. Dolma Kyab felt a strong responsibility to convey these ideas to a wider audience. He is someone who is very connected to the views of educated young Tibetans both in Tibet and in exile".
Another friend of Dolma Kyab's, an Tibetan now living in exile in Europe, said: "Dolma Kyab was particularly concerned about the destruction of the Tibetan environment under Chinese policy. He grew up in the grasslands of Amdo and he saw this for himself. He often used to talk about the military bases in his home area - he said that nomads were often displaced by these and affected by the army's control over the area. He also saw the pollution from mining in the hills near his family's home, and was angry about the poisoning of rivers by uranium mining. He traveled a lot in Tibet and saw many things that tourists do not see, and all the time he was trying to understand more. I would say that his relationship to the land has a spiritual aspect - he is definitely a religious person."
In his letter from prison, Dolma Kyab refers to giving advice to the Tibetan government in exile on the environment, writing: "I have given some suggestions to the Tibetan government in exile on strengthening environmental protection and promoting women's rights. I was preparing to write a book on natural geography, and the book is [yet to be published] but they [the Chinese authorities] accused me of giving secret information to outside China without any evidence. They [Chinese officials] think that what I wrote about the nature and geography was also connected to Tibetan independence."
Seven leading Chinese and Tibetan writers, both in China and in exile, have distributed a letter to humanitarian organizations worldwide expressing their concern and calling for Dolma Kyab's immediate release. The letter states that in late 2005, Dolma Kyab was in such poor health in prison - apparently due to tuberculosis - that he was sent to Lhasa Military Hospital. The letter states: "After a while he was sent to Lhasa Qushui Prison without recovery, but Lhasa Qushui Prison did not accept him as he was still in very bad physical condition. After a few months, in March 2006, Dolma Kyab was transferred to Lhasa Qushui Prison to serve his sentence."
"Dolma Kyab's letter suggests that the authorities presiding over his case 'listened only to one side of the story', and that he did not have a fair trial," said John Ackerly, President of ICT. "It is unacceptable that a writer should serve a decade in prison simply for expressing his views. ICT calls upon the Chinese authorities to release Dolma Kyab. ICT also calls on relevant authorities to publish the charges and evidence against Dolma Kyab, and to provide information about his access to legal assistance prior to his trial. We are also concerned about his health, given that he has apparently been hospitalized during his imprisonment and may be suffering from tuberculosis."
As political repression in Tibet intensifies, Tibetans are more often turning to education, arts and religion for ways to express and preserve their culture and identity. According to a recent report by the Washington, DC-based Congressional-Executive Commission on China, "Expressions and non-violent actions that officials suspect could undermine Party supremacy are sometimes punished as threats to state security... As reported incidents of Tibetan political protest decline, Chinese censors and police watch for other signs of Tibetan resentment or nationalism. Writing, publishing, or sharing literature that laments cultural loss, or that advocates ethnic ambitions not sanctioned by the Party, is sometimes repressed or punished."

Bulldog Attacks Owner While on Walk in Mesa, Then Runs Away After Being Shot by Officer
Image: YouTube |
An American bulldog attacked its owner violently while the two were on a walk last night in Mesa, police say, then ran away after taking a bullet from a cop's gun.
Just before 7:30 p.m., neighbors in the area of 11300 block of East Contessa saw the large, brown-and-white dog turn on the 22-year-old man, "apparently unprovoked," according to a write-up by Detective Steve Berry. The man suffered puncture wounds to his thigh, wrist and abdomen.

He noticed that the dog was still nearby and that a firefighter had been assigned to make sure the dog didn't "reengage its owner" or rescuers.
Acting aggressively, the dog "lunged" at Officer Brooks. He shot it once in the chest. The bulldog ran away, leaving a blood trail.
While the victim went to the hospital, officers on the ground and in a helicopter conducted an "extensive" search of the surrounding neighborhood. The dog wasn't found.
Detective Berry says that, as in another recent case in which an officer shot and killed a dog, the action was necessary to make sure no one else got "chewed up."
Berry's referring to a very different dog incident at a Mesa Target store back in September. In that case, a man named Samkeith Jurden walked into the store wearing only a swimsuit and black socks and accompanied by his unleashed pit bull. Both Jurden and his dog bit police before the dog was shot.

A car's milometer reads $4631$ miles and the trip meter has $173.3$ on it:
How many more miles must the car travel before the two numbers contain the same digits in the same order?
Can you find some other starting numbers that will lead to matching pairs?
What is the relationship between two starting numbers that will work?
If the milometer and trip meters had the following exact readings ($4632$ and $173.3$) then the two numbers will not contain the same digits in the same order before the milometer reaches $99999$ miles. Why is this?
If the milometer 'loops the clock' back to $00000$ again at $100,000$ miles and the trip meter loops the clock back to $000.0$ at $1000$ miles, will the two numbers ever contain the same digits in the same order?

storage to be on RAID. So if I create a 3 TB RAID partition, only 1 TB is left for iSCSI. Am I right to assume that this isn't how storage is partitioned on a more expensive iSCSI storage system?
Also, with my current infrastructure, the single point of failure is on the iSCSI storage. In a network that requires certain servers to be up 99% of the time, this worries me. Is it possible to cluster two iSCSI storage systems? If not, how I can I achieve quick server uptime in the event of a hardware failure within iSCSI?
Likewise, the underlying storage for a unified storage system relies on RAID protection where specific configuration options will vary by vendor. Some solutions enable some storage to be configured as RAID 1 (mirror), some storage as RAID 5 (stripe with parity) and other storage as RAID 6 (dual parity).
The underlying storage is then allocated as LUNs or volumes and made available to servers through block interfaces such as SAS, iSCSI, Fibre Channel (FC) or Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), or via a file system.
Assuming that your environment is housing a 12 drive (512 GB disks) storage system, you could create a 3 TB RAID 5 (6 x 512 GB + 1 Parity disk) group and map that as a single LUN to the NAS file system. You would still have a 1 TB (4 x 512 GB) RAID 1 plus a hot spare disk. For high performance, you can create the iSCSI block LUN using faster 15 K SAS disk drives and then use 7.2 K SAS or SATA high-capacity drives for the NAS shares.
As to the single point of failure being at the iSCSI storage system, that will depend on what you use, how it is configured and where it is deployed. Most small business storage systems provide SAS, iSCSI, FC and or NAS capabilities, and have dual redundant hot swappable controllers, power supplies, cooling fans, spare disk drive options, snapshots and multiple RAID levels. Thus, they can be configured for high availability to eliminate single points of failure. If you are concerned that the entire storage system is a single point of failure, then you can mirror or replicate the data between a pair of storage system for an even higher availability and cost.

I think that my mapping in bug 842927 is wrong for the "Eisu" (英数) key of JIS keyboard for Mac. The key doesn't make "Roman character input mode" enable. The key closes IME on Mac (I'm not sure how it works with Android 4.1 and later). So, the key should be "Alphanumeric" or something new key name. I posted this to the bugzilla of w3.org. https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=22750 Anyway, we need to remap the key name in the future.

Created attachment 8445202 [details] [diff] [review] Support "Eisu" key value on Mac, Android and Gonk Japanese keyboard layout has two different Eisu (英数) keys. One is the left of KeyA of PC keyboard. The other is the left of space key of Mac keyboard. I.e., they are never existing on same physical keyboard (usually). They work really different. The former is typically used for changing IME input mode to ASCII capable. The latter is typically used for closing IME. Therefore, D3E-key defines "Alphanumeric" for the former and "Eisu" for the latter. These names are messy. But since they have really different purpose, D3E-key value should distinguish them. https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/dom3events/raw-file/tip/html/DOM3Events-key.html#key-Eisu https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/dom3events/raw-file/tip/html/DOM3Events-key.html#key-Alphanumeric

Comment 2•3 years ago
FYI: We've already mapped them as "RomanCharacters" (which has already renamed to "Romaji"). The definition of the key by renaming the key name causes this mapping is really wrong. Therefore, "Eisu" is defined for the Mac keyboard's "Eisu" key.
Comment 3•3 years ago
Comment on attachment 8445202 [details] [diff] [review] Support "Eisu" key value on Mac, Android and Gonk This looks reasonable to me. But there are some things I don't understand. What are we going to do about the "Alphanumeric" key? Why isn't the Android key name "Alphanumeric" instead of "Eisu"? (I assume Android would use what you've called a "PC keyboard".)

(In reply to Steven Michaud from comment #3) > What are we going to do about the "Alphanumeric" key? Why isn't the Android > key name "Alphanumeric" instead of "Eisu"? (I assume Android would use what > you've called a "PC keyboard".) Good point. The Eisu key on PC keyboard is also CapsLock key. On Windows, Eisu key causes changing IME input mode to ASCII capable mode in most IMEs. Additionally, Shift + Eisu is CapsLock. On Linux, it depends on system settings. On some environments, the key works as like the key on Windows. On others, the key works just as CapsLock key. On Android, it works just a CapsLock key. Therefore, in software level, there is no PC-Eisu key on Android. However, Android has a key code for Eisu key of Japanese Mac Keyboard. The key code is used only for the key.

I am looking to buy a Makita RF1101KIT2 two-base router kit. Are there any known issues with it? Any input will be appreciated. It's off CL, listed in good condition for $180.00. Is it worth that much? Thank you. |

I don't have that particular model, but I've used Makita and Hitachi for the last 40 years and never had a bad unit. If it is in good condition, it should be a good buy. I would check Amazon first and you might find new for that price. I just bought a new Hitachi M12VS 3 1/4 hp plunge router for $189.00. Free shipping and no taxes. Rand |

I purchased a Makita (RF1100) 2 base router several years ago. However, I have never used the fixed base and, in retrospect, I wonder why people buy 2 base routers. I see no need for a fixed base except for when you are mounting your router in a table. Most people, including me, have a separate router for their table (fixed base) and another router for hand held use (plunge). The router has performed well. It is a mid-level router in terms of power. I have one petty complaint. When I loosen the collet to remove a bit, the bit seldom comes out freely. First I leave the nut on the collet and tap it with a hammer. If that does not work, I remove the nut and place a small screwdriver tip in the crack between 2 of the "fingers" that hold the bit and tap the screwdriver with a hammer. I really hate that second step because I fear I could damage the collet of the bit. Nonetheless, sometimes I have to go to the second step to get the bit out. I own 2 other routers and neither one of them has this problem. -- Rich, Cedar Rapids, IA - I'm a woodworker. I don't create beauty, I reveal it. |

I'm not a big fan of Skill Power tools but a year ago I saw an ad for a Skill Plunge/Fixed base (2 Seperate Units that the "Motorised Unit" Slides into) Router with a Hard Case and a number of Fittings that go with it. Went and had a look, didn't own any Routers at the time. So I sprung for the $150.00 Bucks which I thought was pretty inexpensive. VERY Pleased with it!! Lots of Power, easy to change bits, built in light, etc. Still see it advertised at the same price. Since then I bought a Router Table and a BOSCH Colt Palm Router. LOVE that little guy! 1HP 16,000 to 35,000 RPM $169.00 at Home Depot with Hard Case and a few fittings. Now the Skill stays attached to the Router Table, which is Fine with me …LOL.. -- Hope Everyone Is Doing Well! .... Best Regards: Rick |

I'm not familiar with any issues with the Makita kit, but $180 seems high if it's used….even if it's new, buying off CL usually means no return priveleges if there's a problem. Unless it's a substantial savings, it's not worth the risk IMO. Tyler Tool has a refurbed Makita kit for $160. That same general price range gets you into or pretty close to a Milwaukee 5616, DW618, PC892, Bosch 1617EVSPK, Hitachi M12VC, etc. All very nice routers. -- Happiness is like wetting your pants...everyone can see it, but only you can feel the warmth.... |

I'd like to thank everybody for their input. I'll pass on this one, as I'm not in a big hurry. One day a better deal will come up. Have a great day in the WW shop. |

I own the PC 690 and the 8529, love them both. I would love to purchase another one for under the router table, but I'm reading on some forums that they aren't made as good as they use to be. That there's been some problems now that they are made in China. Has anyone else heard this or had problems with the newer routers? Right now, I have my plunge router under the table and want to take it out to use as a hand held unit. I would like to find another PC that would be a good fit for the table. Heavy enough for raised panels. Any thoughts and suggestions? |

The potential for room-temperature lasing in densely doped organic crystals has been examined using thin crystals fabricated in a narrow gap between two quartz plates. An excitation-intensity dependence study confirms that the system shows spectral line narrowing, a super linear increase of the narrow line above threshold excitation intensity, and laser cavity modes. These results indicate that lasing has been observed in the densely doped organic crystal, which contains in-plane cavities with a length of approximately 100 μm.

Russian experts will join a team of Swiss and French investigators who are to exhume the remains of late Palestinian leader, Yasser Arafat, in Ramallah later this month, the Palestinian President, Mahmoud Abbas, said. He hopes, thanks to the Russian involvement, "new facts will arise or be known about the causes of death".
Mr Arafat's death in a French hospital in November 2004 has remained a mystery for many. The new investigation comes after a Swiss laboratory found traces of a deadly radioactive isotope on clothes said to be Mr Arafat's, sparking accusations that he was poisoned.

"Painting is a study of our existence, spirit, and environment, derived from experiences in life. I choose objects that evoke childhood memories, create situations of atmospheric mystery, and bring visual interest through interaction. I'm intrigued by subtle shifts in value and color; yet seek a personal interpretation of the objects rather than a replication. Personality is revealed through the process of painting. Abstract remnants from my process remain visible in the final product. The hand must obey the spirit. "

Today I walked the entire length of the Hope Valley; it's not far, only being just over seven miles by the route I chose - but it's something I hadn't done before.
I got off the bus and immediately popped into the toilets next to the bus station, and then walked down the road, away from the village centre, passing Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese Inn.
Somewhere in the photo, partially hidden by a hanging basket is a sign that states that 'Dirty Boots Are Welcome.' This is a positive development, and not all that unusual in the Peak District these days.
It wasn't long until I reached the footpath that leads back to Hope. This is an easy, pleasant walk across meadows where I sat awhile and ate my sandwiches. At this point I was passed by three organised walking/hiking groups - a large one, and two smaller groups. At Hope I had to walk along the main road for a few hundred yards but then took a country lane which leads to Aston. My route to the village soon took me across more fields though.
A bit more walking on the road but then back to a path which went all the way to Thornhill, and then Bamford. At Bamford I crossed the River Derwent at the mill using a rickety wooden bridge and recently-repaired stepping stones. Bamford Mill closed many years ago and has now been converted into expensive flats.
I was soon crossing Sickleholme Golf Course by a new route to me and then a few more fields and a country lane and I was at Hathersage.

Very cute!! Our cat looks very similar to yours. Cats are the best.
Beautiful , beautiful cat !
What a gorgeous photo! By the way, are you not selling your patterns anymore now that you've gone all official-like? Do I need to go to Ballarat Patchwork to get them? I know some little Lockets who need to make Pickle! Locket xxx
has your cat been reading Ms Curlypop's blog? teehee, too cute!
that could have been nasty! What if you had stuffed him inside an elephant or something??
My first thought was the same as Bec's! Cheeky puddy cat...certainly looks very cosy in there...
Oh sweet baby.
Aw, your Puddy looks like our Puddy! Meow.
Whoops! Looks like there's a copycat from Ballarat after Mr Limpy Houdini Dogs stuffing adventures this week!We use to always sing that silly copycat from Ballarat song as kids. I wonder if kids still do that these days?
I think he needs a felt satchel and a hat.
For some reason this reminds me of the news story the other day where a LIVE mouse/rat was found in a loaf of bread, bought at Coles. Wouldn't have happened if your guy was around...x
Cuwte!P.S. the word verification was idork - I should register it and sell it to Apple!
I think pussy is a little jealous of all the attention certain stuffed critters get at your house.
Butter wouldn't melt on those furry little lips!
Sprung! Your cat and mine could be brother and sister ( or sisters ). Does your do the cat dance on the stuffing?xo
He he. Just thinking of the damage those claws could do to your creations - does your cat 'knead' with her paws as if she's preparing dough when she's sitting on something?
...hee,hee,HEE! That is too cute! Your cat is adorable!...Blessings :o)
Awww, someone didn't want to be left behind!
They do find the darnedest places, don't they. My Joey is another brother to yours. Yvette
Does this mean one is now repenting at leisure?
How cute! It's moments like this one that make it worth picking the cat hair off all my projects.
Kooky Kat! He looks fabulously wonderful... but then he IS a kat so it's not surprising. I suppose you could make a softie kat around him... then wander around calling out, "Hey Jude!" (sorry, couldn't resist).
That's a very pretty cat.
Love it! Mine just took over the dog's bed. He appears to be too scared to boot her out.
Not being a cat owner I was just wondering how this combination affects fur balls? Perhaps those plastic bags need a warning sign for cats as well as children...I am sure he can read! Perhaps he was voting (with his feet!) for you to do some more toy sewing...rather then chores?
Lucky escape for kitty.
Sweet pic, I once lost my new puppy and after searching the whole house realised I had made the bed and he was still in it. Darn pets will snuggle up anywhere.
Oh my! Cats, like kids, do the darnedest things! LOL
Now that's one whopper of a furball!
Not quite what you had in mind for stuffing??Cute face.
I suppose the cat hairs will just add a little extra stuffing!?What a cute wee face. Hard to be cross with such a cute wee face!!
Clever cute cat.
So cute! Mrow.
Hee Hee picking out the cat hair is going to be fun :-)
Gotta love cats for their unique views on the world at large.Your photo reminded me of this webcomic...http://xkcd.com/325/
Awww - that is such a cosy kitty! Naturally you bought the stuffing purely as cat insulation with the benefit that you're occasionally allowed to use some to stuff a toy :o)xxx
Oh sweet. Sweet. What a cute thing to have a laugh about. Thanks for sharing.
he he he he......
Dear Mrs RicRacI think your problem appears to be that you have an animal of the feline persuasion in your bag of stuffing. I suggest fish and catnip and cuddles.With regards,Katy (France)
Can't go wrong with a cat post, methinks.
What a sweetheart! You couldn't possibly be mad at having stuffing mixed with cat hair when you see that sweet face can you?One of my cats burrows under the bed cover and sleeps in the bed - we only know that she's there because we can see a lump in the bed!
Poor puss, looks like he has had the stuffing knocked right out of him hehe!!! xo
: )
Hellloooooo !!!!

Matt Selby dishes up an advice-driven Denver Restaurant Week survival guide
Lori Midson |
Denver Restaurant Week -- or, as Row 14 chef Jensen Cummings coined it, "Denver Restaurant Half Month" -- began in earnest on Saturday night, with 340 food temples across the metro area offering multi-course menus for two for $52.80. Chef Troy Guard and his crew from TAG and TAG RAW BAR were gearing up for the culinary circus on Saturday afternoon with a pizza party; at Luca d'Italia, the staff is shaking off the stress by doing pilates every morning; and Matt Selby, chef of Vesta Dipping Grill and Steuben's, wrote a thoughtful precursor to Denver Restaurant Half Month last Thursday on his blog, serving up sage advice to servers, chefs and diners alike.
Here are some of the most salient excerpts from his post.
For me personally, the first day of Restaurant Weeks, I kiss my wife and kids, and lovingly tell them, "See you in a couple weeks". The first night is chaotic, scary, and full of nervous energy. Did we order enough food? Have we spaced our reservations properly? Do we have enough staff? Are we truly ready for Sunday through Thursday to be just as busy, if not busier, than Friday and Saturday? Are our RW menus up to par with the regular menu, yet streamlined to maintain current cook times? And, oh lord, there is nothing worse than the terror of waking from a restaurant nightmare at 4 in the morning, just before the crush, questioning whether or not we stocked up on plates and glassware. The answer to all of these questions? Truth be told? You can do all the planning, strategizing, positioning, and research you want, only to have the answers revealed, good, bad, or otherwise as the weeks unfold. Only thing you have control over is your emotions, actions and thoughts.
This year I sat on a DRW advisory board facilitated by Eat Denver and Visit Denver, and I was asked by a new participant what the secret to our Restaurant Week success was. I answered his question with this question..."why would you change your everyday hospitality philosophy for Restaurant Week, and why change your high level of standards for any two weeks?" You don't. Sure, you look for ways to streamline, leverage costs, and keep the family glued together, but ultimately, your goal is to provide the same level of hospitality you do through the year, and make damn sure that you treat every guest, new and regular, so well that they can't wait to come back for more, regardless of the price. You see, I look at DRW as a challenge. A challenge in the spirit of which it was created, to elevate the reputation of Denver dining and hospitality.
As Denver Restaurant Week draws near, I have some advice, praise and compliments to mention. First the advice to my brothers and sisters in the industry: stay strong, stay positive and kick some ass. Take care of yourself, take care of your staff...buy em' a round, bring in some healthy snacks for the night, bring in a masseuse, and reward them for staying energetic and positive. Most important of all, take care of your guests. Give them a reason to come back again and again. Bring them into your family.
Now a plea to Denver diners. Understand that we are overwhelmed. Some of us are new to this, and some of us pros make mistakes. Know that it kills us, breaks our hearts, when we do make mistakes. Not because of the bottom line, but because we truly measure success by how many happy guests walk out of our doors. Tip well and celebrate with us just how far Denver dining has come. Above all else, when mistakes are made, speak up...give us the opportunity, right then and there, to make things right and exceed your expectations. Don't take those missteps to the social media graveyard where mistakes go to die, never to be corrected. Save social media posts for praise, insight, and positive word of mouth.

This was the game...Hall of Fame, SuperBowl
As he continues to add to his resume, this will be one of those games in about ten plus years from now that everyone will cite why Drew Brees will be in the Hall of Fame...
When the Saints hoist the Lombardi trophy this year, this will be the moment that everyone points... For those that have been Saints fans for twenty years... Was this not Deja Vue where the style and strategies of last nights teams were like those of the Saints-49ers battles of the late eighties, early nineties? Only we're the geaux for the win team (Walsh and 49'ers with a great safety)... Know how those Falclowns Fans feel and it's sweet on this side of it, now... |
Yes, this was a very Dome-Patrol-esque performance and struggle. And this time the magical quarterback is OURS. |
(Note to SkyMike)... it wasn't with the Jr. SaintSations but Abby (daughter) got to dance at halftime of the Falcons @ Saints home game this season... Then, this customer gave two tickets for the following week game Panthers @ Saints; half the Saintsations we ran into pre-game remembered her; that was awesome... Almost as awesome were the looks I wasn't getting as I was taking pictures of Abagael with her friends; being a single Dad isn't as bad as I thought, I guess... Only regret was Abby had two tickets from Santa on the Wish List for the Bucs @ Saints game; as long as the miracles for the Saints keep coming, I'm happy... |
This was also the game Malcolm Jenkins proved his value at his draft pick status...

There's no danger in donating food to City Harvest. Both New York State and the federal government have laws protecting donors from liability. And City Harvest asks all agencies to sign an agreement accepting food "as is," which further limits liability. Read both laws.
At City Harvest we take our responsibility to you and the people we serve very seriously. Donating food to City Harvest isn't only smart, it's safe.
