How Anna Watson Carl's family table helped inspire her blog and her recently re-released cookbook, both called The Yellow Table, plus the keepsakes we hope to have around forever.
We caught up with Anna Watson Carl, author of The Yellow Table (the blog AND the cookbook), who shared about the dining room table that helped shape her love of eating, entertaining, and, eventually, her career in cooking. Originally her parents' table, it's now at home in her New York City apartment and the site of endless meals and gatherings. Anna and her husband even moved a wall to make room for it.
Part comfort and part inspiration, keepsakes are often homey things—not too fancy or precious—that we carry around forever or simply hope to keep for years to come. They tell us about ourselves, what we value and what we aspire to be, and lend a lot of comfort to the places we call home. Here's what Anna's yellow table means to her, and some other keepsakes stories from our editors.
My life has always revolved around the yellow table. I grew up eating nearly every meal at this table, celebrating birthdays and holidays, spending countless hours talking about life and telling stories, and laughing (a lot) with family and friends. It's a place where ideas have been birthed, tears have been shed, and toasts have been made. This table is more than a table to me—it's a place where I've always felt known and loved. It represents family and tradition, acceptance and community, and the simple pleasures of homemade meals and good conversation. I can't wait to continue the legacy of the yellow table with my own children one day. —Anna Watson Carl
Like Anna, I love the kitchen table I grew up with, the same one my mother had in her childhood home. We ate dinner around this kitchen table nearly every night, even when my brother and I were older and we were all busy enough to justify not doing so. I have done about one million art projects and most of my homework at this table; it's where we set up our canning jars and where we fold our laundry. And it has always been a relief, in the summer, to put my head down on its always-cool metal surface. —Caroline Lange
One of my favorite grab-it-if-the-house-is-burning-down items in my house is a pothook.
Not just any pothook though—specifically, it's a jizai-kagi, a Japanese adjustable pothook meant for use indoors over a sunken hearth. When living in Japan, I wanted to find one nice something-or-other to bring back to the States to serve as a daily reminder of our time there. I was originally thinking along the lines of a dining room table, but it was a pothook that ended up catching my eye in a second-hand store near our apartment. The owner tried to talk me into a lower-priced (a.k.a. not as cool) model (perhaps because he knew I wasn't going to use it for its intended purpose), but when he saw I couldn't be persuaded, he just shrugged and said, "You have good taste." Someday it might be nice to have it featured prominently at the center of a tatami room holding a kettle of water for tea, but for now, I'm content to have it function as artwork—adorning one corner of my dining room. —Lindsay-Jean Hard
When I moved to New York from college in Boston a little over a year ago, I came with just two (enormous) suitcases, a lei from graduation, and a car full of snacks to fuel my very helpful parents. So when I moved into my first long-term apartment last month, I essentially started from scratch: I filled it with extremely inexpensive furniture so I could spend my money on things I'll actually keep forever, like a beautiful Vermont marble board for pie crusts, a boysenberry KitchenAid, and a cast iron pot. While they aren't heirlooms, they're beautiful (and functional!) pieces that have already contributed to some of my most memorable nights and meals in the city with friends—even if I don't have a dining table to serve them at—yet. —Leslie Stephens
My mom sent me to college with this binder of her recipes. You'll see it's called "Yo Momma's Homemade Recipes"—she added that attribution in stickers to the cover of the standard recipe book. And while she doesn't know how to type, is not a scrapbooker, and is in no way crafty, she poked out all the recipes I grew up on to compile in this book. There are also some cheesy stickers (you'll see Momma's Meatballs are ostensibly the way to a man's heart). At this point, I've made those meatballs, lemon pasta, and minestrone enough times that I could make them by heart. But I choose not to: I'd rather hold onto this binder, deciphering my mom's shorthand each time. It's as close as I can get to cooking with her when we're 3,000 miles apart. —Ali Slagle
Maybe I should be embarassed to share this, but anyone who knows me well also knows Bebe. A small pink polar bear, Bebe was given to me as a gift by my family. Bebe has a knack for travel: When I was younger, I would grasp him by his spine in one hand and lug him around everywhere (left picture), sometimes hiding him accidentally (Mom says she found him in a diaper box after a big cry when I thought I'd lost him). In his older age (right picture), he's best at just snuggling, but he still loves travel and finds his way into overnight bags and backpacks and work totes. I'm not sure how—maybe because he hates staying at home alone and prefers to be exploring. Worn all over, Bebe is my daily reminder that no matter how far I go, nobody has my back more than my family. —Amanda Sims

Player guide for Champions League holder Real Madrid
Real are in their third Champions League in four years and are used to playing in them, even though this is our second in three seasons. Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri has called for "one final effort" from his "fantastic" players to complete a flawless season for the club.

Hornqvist set to return for Pens, Fisher for Preds in Game 1His goal snapped a 37:09 stretch of ice time Monday in which the Penguins didn't record a shot on goal. Yeah. Guentzel broke in and ripped one past Rinne for the go-ahead score with three minutes left in the third, and Bonino sunk the empty-net dagger for a stunning Game 1 win.
IPL 2017: Virender Sehwag slams Glenn Maxwell after exitBecause the RPS surge up in the top four place in the IPL 2017 points table with his batting and bowling ability. It gives the victor a straight passage into the IPL 2017 final and the loser another crack at making the finale. When the likes of West Indians Lendl Simmons, Kieron Pollard , Parthiv Patel , skipper Rohit Sharma , Nitish Rana fire in unison, they can destroy any bowling line up in the world and Pune's will be no exception.
Mike Brown Reportedly Recovering from Food Poisoning Ahead of 2017 NBA FinalsIf the problems persist, Kerr may sit out for the entire series . "I'm not well enough to coach games, and I know that [because] I coached all 82 games and I did OK", Kerr explained. But he's also taking my advice and counsel behind the scenes. I think the team is like 108-2. So it's not easy, but he's obviously doing a good job. That is why the Warriors, in an effort to protect themselves in case Kerr had to miss any more time , hired Brown - an experienced coach who has been to the ...
Conte defends Victor Moses over FA Cup red cardBut Arsenal made their extra man count and claimed the trophy thanks to Aaron Ramsey's victor. "I do not know for sure, but there is a lot of attention on this moment". "But I knew I didn't go anywhere near him and obviously it helped us to victory in the end". Earlier this month the Football Association introduced new sanctions for "successful deception of a match official" ahead of next season that will see players found guilty of diving to win a penalty or get an opponent sent off ...
LeBron James Sets New NBA Scoring RecordActing Golden State coach Mike Brown, asked about Cavs coach Tyronn Lue's comment that the Celtics are harder to defend than the Warriors , said, "That's his opinion". Love continued to knock down shots from the outside, Irving sliced his way into the lane to the rim and James got free for several of his one-handed, tomahawk dunks.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger's future to be decided on TuesdayWenger was also dismissive of the notion that his record-breaking FA Cup success, after previous wins in 1998, 2002, 2003, 2005, 2014 and 2015, might have an impact on the talks about his position. "But the first goal should never have been allowed - it was clearly a handball and then ( Aaron) Ramsey was offside because he was interfering in play".
Guentzel's goal lifts Penguins by Predators 5-3 in Game 1A primary part of the Penguins' problem was the overuse of stretch passes. Pittsburgh is 11-2 in these playoffs when scoring first, and Nashville is 7-2. PITTSBURGH-The dead catfish that some poor soul purchased and smuggled into the building and threw onto the ice to explode near the Nashville blue line probably would have been thrown no matter what happened in the game, because you don't stash a dead catfish in your trousers or somewhere for half an hour and then just leave it under your ...
LeBron James says he's ready for Warriors-Cavs IIIIt eventually prompted James to bolt Cleveland to join Wade, with Chris Bosh ditching the Toronto Raptors to also play for Miami. And they're doing this without their head coach. "We feel like we should be here, and we feel like we should be a championship-contending team". "We all need to soak this up". The Celtics , by comparison, had yet to acquire so much natural talent.
Kerr 'not ready' to return to Warriors sidelineLeBron James is used to being the underdog in the NBA Finals . In fact, Jordan's Bulls never even were forced to a Game 7 in the Finals. Facing his seventh consecutive National Basketball Association final, James said: "It's not promised every year, for sure, we all know that it takes hard work and dedication ...
Seeded Angelique Kerber ousted from French Open in first roundPetra Kvitova provided a performance to warm the heart on day one of the French Open , as Angelique Kerber became the first top-seeded woman in history to lose in the opening round. Hope was pinned on the grand slam tournament she had won before, with Kvitova trying to get ready for grass season, at best. Timea Bacsinszky , the Swiss 30th seed who made the semi-finals two years ago, was also an early victor, seeing off Spain's Sara Sorribes Tormo 6-1, 6-2.
Kvitova beats odds, and gets a French Open victoryBelief. Pojd. That last word, which is the Czech equivalent of Come on! and was spelled with a red heart instead of the O, is often yelled by Kvitova to celebrate particularly good shots.However, the two-time Wimbledon champion looked as though she had never been away as she racked up the winners in a hugely heartening comeback.

The first thing Mrs. Sayers asserts is that she is not only not a feminist but she is also strongly opposed to the movement as it was at the time of her speech recorded in this book (1938). When questioned by the Women's Society about this assertion, she said, "… under present conditions, an aggressive feminism might do more harm than good." I wonder what she'd say about today's feminism.
Her collection of essays could easily be summed up by stating that a person's worth or identity should't be automatically assumed to be understood based upon their gender. Feminism today is all about elevating women to the highest level of existence merely because they are women. It is a form of reverse discrimination that makes any attempt to take it seriously ludicrous. The double standard is often justified by assertions of "historical evidence of double standards for men an women" but that is a weak argument at best. A history of cruelty toward male children doesn't mean that we now must be cruel to female children as a balance.
Mrs. Sayers argues that sweeping statements such as "A woman is as good as a man" are as meaningful as "a Frenchman is as good as a Kafir." As good for what? This is the material question. She goes on to demonstrate that one may be better than another at specific tasks but does agree that in the eyes of their Creator, both are equally "good."
She asserts that what we should mean is that women are just as ordinary human beings as men are. Each individual person his or her own preferences, tastes, and the like. She isn't so idealistic as to encourage the wholesale dismissal of all stereotypes. As repugnant as they can be at the wrong time or when they most definitely do not apply, the fact is, they exist because there is enough substance behind them to create them in the first place. There wouldn't be stereotypes about "jolly chubby men" or "tempermental artists" if enough of them didn't exist to make it seem like a universal truth. Does that mean there aren't irritable men with beer bellies or actresses with ice in their veins? Well obviously there are both. However, I must admit, those that I know who are heavily involved in the theater on a regular basis tend to be high strung and tempermental and I know many many more cheerful and jovial chubby men than rotund men who are easily irritated.
I love this quote:
"What is irritating and unreasonable to assume is that all one's tastes and preferences have to be conditioned by the class (or sex?) to which one belongs."

Lessons start at 8.30 in the morning except for Wednesday when the first lesson begins at 8.25. When pupils arrive at the school, they should go to the school yard from the bus stop, the car parks or the the bicycle shelters. Until the first bell pupils can stay in the courtyard or in the entrance hall, but they are not allowed to proceed to the classrooms. When the first bell rings (at 8.25, but at 820 on Wednesdays), pupils should proceed immediately to their classrooms where the teachers will be waiting for them. The lessons start when the second bell rings. The names of absentees are electronically registered at the beginning of each lesson. The school day ends at 4.15 p.m. (at 12.35 on Wednesdays). There are no lessons in the afternoon on Wednesdays. From 13.30 to 15.00 extracurricular activities or learning support lessons may be organised. A bus of 'De Lijn' will leave the school at 15.30 and bring the pupils to the train station in Mol arriving at 15.38.
The time schedule for the lessons can be followed in the chart below. There is a short break after the 3rd lesson and the sixth period is the general Lunch break. Nevertheless, pupils are allowed to have an 'early lunch' if they have a free lesson in the 5th period. During the breaks pupils are under the supervision of the teachers in the courtyard, in the canteen, in the gyms and in the sports grounds. Pupils in general stay in school for the entire school day unless they have permission from their parents to have lunch at home and receive from the school a green student card. (For more detailed information on breaks, supervision and student cards consult the School Regulations.)

W: at strange-permission test.pl 0755
Generally these aren't worth bothering with, but having a file group writable
in your checkout could be problematic. I don't see that, but I think my umask
doesn't allow it. Someone should try to understand where this is coming from.
E: at non-readable /etc/pam.d/atd 0640
I think this is OK, albeit different from what most other packages do. (They
use 0644).
E: at non-standard-dir-perm /var/spool/at/spool 0700
E: at non-standard-dir-perm /var/spool/at 0700
E: at non-readable /etc/at.deny 0600
E: at non-readable /var/spool/at/.SEQ 0600
These are necessitated by security.
W: at hidden-file-or-dir /var/spool/at/.SEQ
That's just the file that at uses; it's OK for it to be hidden.
E: at setuid-binary /usr/bin/at root 04755
E: at non-standard-executable-perm /usr/bin/at 04755
These are necessary.
W: at dangerous-command-in-%post chown
I'm not really sure why these are here as opposed to just being part of
%files. Perhaps rpm would keep creating .SEQ.rpmnew files endlessly otherwise?
If so then I think it's OK.
W: at service-default-enabled /etc/rc.d/init.d/atd
It's allowable for a service to be on by default, especially in the case of a
daemon that everyone expects to be there.

I see atd.init and test.pl at 0755 permissions in the source. It looks like
those two files are not in upstream and added to make this package. So
basically, the question is can they have better perms? I think the answer is yes.
I am also still seeing a difference between debian's upstream sum and the source
used for this package. I am not sure why that is. When I unpack both soruces
and run a diff, I see no difference.
From the package review guidelines:
- MUST: The sources used to build the package must match the upstream source, as
provided in the spec URL. Reviewers should use md5sum for this task.
It was stupid differnce between at_... and at-... Now are the sums the same.

The last few months have seen a wildly accelerated trajectory for Austin Brown and Andrew Savage, aka Parquet Courts. Formed from the ashes of bands such as Fergus & Geronimo and Teenage Cool Kids, Parquet Courts are a glorious encapsulation of everything NYC punk should be; a frenzied and frantic ramraid on the history of garage rock but with more whip smart intelligence, cutting humour and – crucial to the band – emotional honesty than most other bands muster.
Parquet Courts initially released their debut LP "Light Up Gold" on their own label Dull Tools in July last year, but the resultant buzz and excitement (with the tastemaking likes of Spin, Pitchfork, Village Voice and many others joining the ranks of the converted) has seen the album get an official release in the US in January and in the UK on April 15. From start to finish, this is a full throttle experience which you have no choice but to dive in to headfirst, with ridiculously infectious melodies and propulsive guitars which grab you as Brown and Savage (with assist from Max Savage and Sean Yeaton) spin their short, sharp tales of quarter-life ennui ("Borrowed Time"), weed-induced inertia ("Stoned and Starving") and job anxiety ("Careers in Combat") with concise, laserlike precision.
"5 stars - Parquet Courts have produced a debut that's both instantly addictive and lastingly rewarding" – Guardian.
"9/10 - Goddamn great…a powerful, personality-heavy record" – NME.
"8.0 - A gel-capsule-sized dosage of distilled NYC punk rock: vinegary smarts, reeled-off quotables...It's maximum-attitude, minimum-patience: not just smart, but frantically smart, blurting out everything it might have to say before the time clock expires" – Pitchfork

Pasteurizing Goat Milk and Keeping It Fresh
If you're raising and milking goats as part of a green lifestyle, you'll want to keep your milk fresh and to pasteurize it. The best way to keep milk fresh is to drink it as soon as possible. But even before that, whether you pasteurize your milk or drink it raw, you need to start out with the best quality possible.
Starting with good milk means keeping it free of bad bacteria and other contaminants when you milk. To do this, you need to
Make sure that the goat and her udder are clean.
Milk in a clean environment; make sure your hands and equipment are clean.
Strain the milk into a glass or stainless steel storage container right after milking.
Chill the milk as soon as possible after milking to inhibit the growth of bacteria in the milk that contribute to spoilage.
Keep the milk out of direct sunlight or fluorescent lights, which can lead to off-flavors and loss of nutrients.
Pasteurization extends milk's shelf life and is also the only way that you can make milk from a goat with a chronic disease safe for feeding to kids.
Unfortunately, pasteurization also destroys good organisms rather than just targeting the bad ones. And it changes the flavor of the milk, and of cheese made from pasteurized milk.
Many people prefer their goat milk raw if they know that their goats are healthy. If you plan to drink raw goat milk, don't use antibiotics or other drugs on your milkers, and handle the milk carefully. If you have milk from a goat with CAEV but want to feed it to bottle babies, you must pasteurize it.
To pasteurize milk, follow these steps:
Put milk in a double boiler or in jars in a pasteurizer or canner and heat to 165 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 seconds.
Cool the milk as quickly as possible, but make sure not to put the hot jars in cold water or they will break.
Store the milk in the refrigerator.

Courage, My Love
I was most certainly inspired! And inspiration grows on no trees in my wood lot. So here are a few of the inspirational quotes I came across, to accompany these photos of the beautiful Miss Earhart:

Lighting the candle at both ends of the street
lately i've been feeling a little frazzled. a little raw around the edges. a little dissatisfied and dizzied by what I have come to see as my life. it's as though i were a drunken teenager at a makeshift party in someone's field, who spent the night stumbling in zig zags and woke up not knowing quite where she is nor how she arrived. i feel as though i've let go of this gushing hose that once watered a colorful bed of flowers, but now flails about madly, soaking me senseless. if i do not think of ways in which to sneak up on this slippery water snake and take it in my grasp once more, i will surely drown.
but there are aspects of my life that are more than satisfactory. i have much to be grateful for and many resources at my disposal. with this blog, i mean to sort through the mess and assemble the broken bits. to harness the hose and to lead the poor shit-faced teen back toward the path.

Clarkston News Sports Writer
Lady Cagers walked off the court one last time as they finished the season in the MHSAA Girls Basketball district final with a 44-31 loss to Waterford Kettering last Friday.
"We came up against a very good Kettering team," said Christine Rogers, head coach. "We didn't have it that night."
Kettering opened with the lead, scoring five points before the Lady Wolves got on the board three minutes in with a basket from junior Molly Nicholson.
Seconds later junior Maddie Beck closed the gap as she scored one point on the free throw line.
She then stole the ball from the Lady Captains' possession, leading to a basket from junior Kayla Luchenbach to tie the score at five points.
Kettering scored three points before junior Kiana Ayotte scored with 20 seconds remaining in the first quarter, 7-8.
The Lady Wolves opened the next quarter with two points from Beck off senior Kristen Page's rebound.
Both teams battled foul trouble sending players to the line, each to tie the score until Kettering pulled into the lead with four points.
Beck closed in, scoring on a 3-pointer with 13 seconds in the first half before Kettering scored to keep the lead and end the first half, 17-14.
"Kiana continued to handle the pressure and Molly and Kayla were going against girls as big as them underneath," Rogers said. "Maddie continued to take opportunities to go to the hoop. It was just the little things like boxing out and where we were are where we had a few letdowns."
The Lady Captains opened the second half with a 11-0 run to build onto their lead.
Beck led with 17 points during the game.
The Lady Wolves won the second round of district playoffs with a 36-30 win over Oxford, March 1. Beck led with 14 points and freshman Taylor Heaton scored ten points.
"It was an excellent opportunity," Rogers said about districts. "We played two early round games and they did pretty well."
The Lady Wolves finished the season with a 17-6 record.
"It was a great experience," Rogers said about the season. "We played a tougher schedule than we did last year. They saw some pretty good competition. They grew as a team. We had players like Kiana develop a real presence on the court. Maddie came out of nowhere to lead our team. She averaged 18 points a game. Kayla had another solid season, averaging 16 points a game. Molly was the player we hoped she would be. Going forward we have a lot to build on."
She added the tough season ending will help the returners for next year.
"They are going to realize we missed a chance to move on and it's going to make them hungrier for next year," Rogers said. "We aren't just hoping to do okay in districts. We want to win districts and they will be seniors, and it will be their last chance."
The team said goodbye to their three seniors Page, Mary McKillop and Nora Storey.
"It was tough to say goodbye," said Rogers. "Mary gave us some good minutes on Friday night. We got into some foul trouble and Kristen tried to play through her knee injury. Nora continued to keep challenging her team to do better and to rise to the challenge."
(For more about the seniors, please check out "Athletes of the Week: Leaders on the court" in the Feb. 23 edition of The Clarkston News for more about the senior players.)

<Bob> scribenick: wu
<Bob> scribe: Wu Chou
bob: ready to go
... accepting new issues and go through submitted WS-E issues
li: issue opened in response 6397
... three issues may be caused by it
<Yves> http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=6397
li: propose to move subcription manager to from field of the SOAP header to reserve these identifier
geoff: perhaps there are use cases might be useful
dug: how use of subscription manager in subend
li: used by subscriper
gpilz: question assumtion of subscriber
Geoff: its a use case and people may be
gpilz: epr comparison is hard to compare
Geoff: existing implementation may use this feature, do we want to be backward competible
li: even we treat epr a block, it is in the from field and will be echoed back by WS-A
dug: the reason for correlation. epr comarison we should not avoid
gpilz: bk competibility, we change namespace may break bk competibility, we can use epr we can compare
dug: featurewise we may not lose much
<dug> s/much/anything/ :-)
bob: gil opposes accepting this as a new issue
wu: we should exmine this, espcially there are exsting implementation
bob: we do not accept this issue at this time and wu/gil will discuss this issue
... we will set this issue to no action at this moment
<Bob> The only opposition to not accepting this new issue was Avaya of those present
asir: push also through mailing list
bob: to make our discussion on the pub mailing list in addition to bugzilla
li: an example is attached and listed examples of infoset model
gpilz: should accept this issue, understand benefits
<Prasad> +1
gpilz: show some benefits of abstract properties
li: original benefits are listed in wu's presentation
yves: exi is a xml format
... which is beyond soap
<Yves> http://www.w3.org/XML/EXI/
bob: there are other cases and a reason for WS-A
dug: if valuabe, should apply to others
Yves: there are many standards use Infoset
<Yves> like SOAP1.2 WSDL2, Addressing etc... It also allows the use of MTOM, for example, or other optimization that may be needed
li: Infoset in eventing clear advantages may apply to others
bob: implication of adopting Infoset
Yves: just define Infoset and apply it to various cases
wu: it will be one standard, but make it more readability
Yves: it should not affact readability
<asir> not a general statement, but for WS-A I like the infoset speak
asir: maybe wu can try write it for one section
<Prasad> The spec is readable as is. Adding infoset notation to make it more readable is a lot more work (for editors to create) and whole WG to review and make sure it is correct etc. is unnecessary work IMHO. Like Dug and others, I find Infoset notation more confusing than helpful
bob: likely to support to take a prototype chapter?
<dug> Prasad - any reason you didn't get on the Q to say that?
bob: Li are you willing to take one chapter?
li: a section?
<Prasad> Dug, I can jump the q and say it exactly the way want it (in the minutes:)
Geoff: yes, say for example a section - subscribe
<Bob> ACTION: Li Produce a exemplar of the proposal for an operation such as subscribe [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2009/01/16-ws-ra-minutes.html#action01]
gpilz: could be important for WS-E since data can be large
li: the proposal using EPR to address event source
... two examples included in the proposal, including an example in csta for dynamic event source
bob: where part in WS-E spec will be affacted
li: in subscribe section
gil: how well can you do it and not sure how to address someting
dug: not sure what spec is missing
bob: they ask for the pointer which part of WS-E will be affacted
li: if we want to subscript to one of 10 port, subscribe to one of them
... if only with top level address to send message to, not clear how to address lower or dynamic resources
Geoff: full example to compare before and after may help
li: port type is from Annex of WS-E, annotate portType as event source, how to subscribe to this type ...
gil: port has address, support single binding
asir: can support multiple ports in wsdl
bob: maybe follow Geoff suggestion as next step
li: OK
<Bob> ACTION: Li to produce a before/after text demonstrating the change desired for 6425 [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2009/01/16-ws-ra-minutes.html#action02]
li: WS-E delivery is a single element. It is in wrong place to move to WS-E delivery
... schema does not reflect this element properly
... proposal is to address this
gil: i agree, thanks to bring this issue
... the mode is left open ended
... however, example schema has an error
... delivery type should have some form of any for extension
li: good
asir: proposal seems concrete
bob: to make the amandament to the proposal, send it to public mailing list
Geoff: put section number in to help understanding it
<Bob> ACTION: Li to update proposal for 6426 to the public list [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2009/01/16-ws-ra-minutes.html#action03]
dug: Don't have ocncrete proposal. one thought is using WS-policy
gil: putting policy in side wsdl is not very natural
<gpilz> actually describing operations inside policy isn't very natural
dug: different portType ... looking for suggestions
Geoff: two points to consider, run time, compile (develop) time. we should lose track of both of those
gil: agree to two aspects, inventing new describe language may not be good
... maybe raise an issue to WS-I and it does not apply here
... tell WS-I R2303 not apply here
prasad: the reason of WS-I is binding, outside WS-E may still a problem
... I have no issue since I argued to keep notification
bob: is binding is properly specified in ws-e
dug: changing BP to do this, may not be a reasonable thing to do
bob: write a W3 Note, not W3C recommendation but referrencable
<dug> actually, it may or may not be reasonable - we just need to check because changing BP will have impact on people
bob: this is about outbound operation binding
wu: Binding must be in the context of subscribe/notify web service interaction, which is stateful.
bob: Gil to carry to BP group to extend R2303 allow binding through sub/notify
... how to close this as no action?
dug: this may be an issue
bob: restiction is raised because of binding. ws-e provided this binding
gil: may be try WS-I to see how WS-I react
wu: tool should not be a reason to limit standard
bob: we have charter to be aligned with with BP
dug: BP important to us, most our tools using it
... BP not fair not awaring this. there is other way. I am not suggesting that
gil: BP complaint mode vs. ws-transfer complaint can be hard
bob: if BP 1.2 or BP2.0 can make the situation different
<gregcarp> fine
<Bob> ACTION: Gil to carry BP output-only operation prohibition to WS-I [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2009/01/16-ws-ra-minutes.html#action04]
gregcarp: odd to prohibate valuable apps due to profile. prohibate forever due to not in the profile is not perceivable
bob: Gil has action to take up this with WS-I
<Yves> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-resource-access/2009Jan/0040.html
dug: this is an updated proposal from yesterday discussion
Geoff: thank for improvement, but not like overloading term format
resolution: resolve Issue-6405 with last proposal (Comment#3 in Bugzilla
li: proposal is to copy the default value to schema for benefit of apps and tools
dug: can we do more for other standards?
... this is all or just an example
li: only an example and there are more in ws-e
<gpilz> test
asir: send a list to the group to look at it, than change it
bob: wu list all such changes in ws-e, share with group, then move on
li: 6428 about mode attribute in ws-e, which is used for separate things
... it should be open/extensible, suggest to add new attribute "Format"
dug: you may need more information than URI than Format, which can be something to consider
... you may need more than URI to address it
gregcarp: is it cleaner way or you can do something additional
<dug> a new element, sibling to Delivery/Mode, might be cleaner
li: it would odd to do two things on one URI
Geoff: maybe consider dug suggestin, adding more than URI
... I would like to think if there is additional extensibility
li: this is related to delivery mode. propose to define standard wrap interface
gil: recommand this a separate WSDL
li: exactly, this is the WSDL for the event sink
gil: as event sink, may need more detail, e.g. SOAP 1.1, 1.2, RPC, ...
... static wsdl is hard to determine the what binding is.
Yeves: binding maybe specified in subscription time to make things easy
bob: 6429 will take further discussion to the list.
li: propose an attribute to indicate event source
... we should consider W3C Semantic Annotation for WSDL and XML Schema
dug: I am wondering if this should be at portType level, operation level, etc.
gil: need to do homework and think of a competing proposal using policy
prasad: this may relate to bp issue
asir: some question of attribute
li: it allows to you to subscribe port, not source
asir: it will help to make the context know.
li: in ecma-348, need to indicate in SOAP header
Geoff: what is the mapping in wsdl and what you subscribe
li: this is another submitted issue for ws-e
asir: some background of the issue is very helpful
... policy assertion apply to shared behavour and event source may not
<Bob> ACTION: Li in email to the public list, describe the background and implications to 6430 more fully [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2009/01/16-ws-ra-minutes.html#action05]
Geoff: to link the issue with 6425 which is another half will be helpful
li: propose add pause/resume operation to ws-e
... it can reduce ws-e overhead in subscribe/resubcribe
gil: seem a good idea, like to see more detail
bob: events will be qued or pause event delivery
li: open to implementation/application at this moment
gil: maybe define pause or queue at start. maybe this is an implementation choice
bob: it may add a lot of complexity. there is any additional cost beyond subscribe/unscribe
<Prasad> What if you pause and forget (to resume) foreever?
li: pause is very common in business case
asir: need to consider cr phase
<Yves> questions about possible cost of a subscription or delivery reminds me of the safeness of WS-Transfer:Get...
<dug> Yves - can you elaborate?
<Yves> if you retreive something using WS-T:Get and something goes wrong, is it safe to re-issue the request or not?
<Yves> ie: is WS-T:Get used in case of payment to retreive information (where you don't want to do twice ;) )
<asir> safe
<Yves> we might clarify that in WS-T then
<Yves> I'll open an issue ;)
wu: we can confine pause as a short-hand of subscribe/unsubscribe then subscribe, which semantics are defined in ws-e
<asir> ok
<dug> are you saying that T.get() will change the fact that a payment happened?
<Prasad> If we introduce pause / resumeetc, semantics need to be simple. No pooling of events until resume etc. Pause will make you lose events until resume also. Otherwise huge overhead on the event-source side and what if the pause is never resumed. There need to be timeout semantics also
<Yves> no, I just wonder if people are tying T.Get and payment (as it may lead to double charging someone if T.Get implies you can safely re-issue the request if something fail, like power failure)
dug: looking atthe impact on ws-rt
Geoff: we need extensibility. ws-rt spec is on extending ws-t.
... by making changes suggested, this relation broken
... Thus, this is a significant change to ws-rt
asir: needs to think more
dug: I missed that relation
... one way to solve it is to ask ws-rt to use the same wrapper
asir: this is significant change and like to see detail
dug: like to know if this wg is o.k. to that geneal direction
asir: need to know more if this is reasonable
<Bob> ACTION: Dug Take proposal for 6398 to the next level of detail including extension to include impact on WS-RT, including deleteRequest (getting us to 8 operations in T) and MEX [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2009/01/16-ws-ra-minutes.html#action06]
see you next Tuesday, Meeting adjourned

Get ready, downtown Grand Rapids … city life is about to get a whole lot fresher!
Picture this scene, if you will: You come home from work to your funky urban flat only to realize you don't have any of the salad ingredients you need to make dinner. No worries – just stroll on over a block or two to the newly opened Grand Rapids Downtown Market, where farmer's market vendors will be displaying fresh farm stand produce while a row of indoor marketplace vendors offer everything from artisan oils and vinegars to coffee and freshly popped kettle corn. Or maybe you need a bit of unwind time after a long day's work – simply head on down for a stint at the spa that's just below your condo unit. Don't forget to indulge in a favorite cafe beverage while you're out so you can enjoy some people watching!
If you think you must be in Paris or Rome think again – you're in the heart of Downtown Grand Rapids! And this scenario will be just another everyday perk for GR's city residents as soon as this summer, when two major housing and retail development projects converge on the Heartside neighborhood with the aim of creating and sustaining a vibrantly diverse and upbeat atmosphere in an area of the city that has been overlooked for far too long.
The first project, Tapestry Square, developed by Jonathon Bradford of the urban revitalization organization Inner City Christian Federation (ICCF), will be comprised of a 4-block mixed housing and retail space at the corner of Wealthy St and Division Ave S, with 32 residential units situated atop a ground level strip of popular retail shops, including Biggby Coffee, Subway and a salon/spa. Around the corner and just a few blocks over, the Downtown Market on Ionia Ave near the US-131 overpass will combine a 138,000 square foot indoor market hall of up to 24 artisan retailers plus an outdoor farmer's market with space for up to 80 vendors to offer up produce and other farm-fresh goods on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. The market could open as soon as this May.
These residential-retail and "open market" concepts–popular in Europe for centuries–are perfectly suited to Grand Rapids, where the downtown condo and apartment rental market has seen an explosion of growth in recent years, thanks to new building projects like this one along with the nationally recognized Medical Mile and community events such as ArtPrize and LaughFest, which bring people flocking to the downtown area in droves. And with talks in the works now by Loeks Theatres Inc. and a major supermarket chain to establish a presence in the downtown area as well, residents may soon be able to fulfill their everyday necessities as well as enjoy a full scope of entertainment options, all on foot.
It's just another example of how Grand Rapids downtown living is taking off like never before. But hey, we already knew that, right? After all, as our own downtown condo expert Ashley Dietch pointed out, out of the 1,000 condominium units that have been built in downtown Grand Rapids, only 40 – 50 are still available for sale. People continue to snap up opportunities to buy Grand Rapids downtown real estate left and right because of our unique vibe – big city perks with a friendly, small-town charm. And although relatively small compared to other major cities, our downtown has always been rich with culture, diversity, endless dining and entertainment options … and now a farmer's market, to boot!
Sure, there's nothing like a summertime trek to a roadside farm stand for sweet corn and berries, but when it comes down to it, city dwellers will always prefer to strut the town versus taking a winding drive through the countryside … and with the exciting new developments coming to downtown Grand Rapids, it turns out they just may never have to again!
For more information about selling or buying a condo, please contact the Steve Volkers Group at (616) 284-1528.

ALLEN HARPER - pedigree
THERE are many, many ways to breed a successful greyhound.
Just take a close look at the diverse pedigrees of the winners at any racetrack throughout the country, or the world for that matter.
Generally there are patterns to be seen.
Once a winner is a high class winner it can become very apparent to those who ponder pedigrees just what went to making that good greyhound, just what he or she is.
But how often do we look at pedigrees of those greyhounds who are not so good?
Sometimes there can be much more to be learned from doing that than agreeing with a top class pedigree.
Allen Harper and his litter brother Allen Lawson (Over Flo-Kazar Bale) are flag bearers for the Wheeler kennel in recent times. The former recently won the Peter Mosman Classic at Wentworth Park running a scorching 29.58 to boot.
His brother Allen Lawson has been second in a Traralgon Cup and a finalist in both The Launching Pad and The Dawson.
Dam Kazar Bale has produced two previous litters, one to Irish sprinter Valentia Citrate and the other to top sire, Melbourne Cup and Maturity winner Hallucinate.
The Valentia Citrate litter was moderate to say the least. Gotham Bale, from this litter, won seven of 90 starts but was a winner at The Meadows.
The Hallucinate litter produced Walter Bale the SA Derby winner and a very good city performer.
Walter Bale was the obvious standout of the Hallucinate litter, although Kora Bale won 16 races and was a Meadows and Angle Park winner.
The rest moderate to say the least.
But when Kazar Bale was mated to Over Flo she has produced two Group performers and a couple of other gallopers who have shown plenty of ability with city performances far ahead of the majority of the litter by Valentia Citrate and Hallucinate.
So what was the difference?
Why did Kazar Bale produce to Over Flo and not as well to champion race dog and sire Hallucinate, or to star Irish sprinter Valentia Citrate?
Over Flo was a very, very good sprinter, but he was no Hallucinate.
So it must have been in the pedigree the Wheelers designed to produce Allen Lawson and Allen Harper etc.
The intensity of linebreeding the mating of Over Flo-Kazar Bale contains is immense, far more than anything produced by the matings to Hallucinate or Valentia Citrate.
First, and foremost it brings in a 3x4 duplication via two daughters to that great speed influence Malawi's Prince. He comes along the alternate sex path on both sides of the mating.
The alternate sex path for a male runs down to Kazar Bale, up to Go Wild Teddy, down to Web Of Silence and up to Malawi's Prince. For a female, it runs up to Over Flo, down to Flo Jo Tears and up to Malawi's Prince etc etc.
Many great greyhounds are bred along this type of line breeding to common and dominant, or similarly bred ancestors.
But the pedigree of Allen Harper does not only rely on just this.
Grove Whisper* is duplicated and sex balanced 5x4 via his son Captain Standby and daughter Luana Bale. Paul Wheeler in recent times has often duplicated Grove Whisper with success.
It is also interesting that Over Flo carries in his pedigree two crosses of Chariot Supreme both coming through daughters. Kazar Bale brings in a cross of Shining Chariot significantly a SON of Chariot Supreme.
The mating also provides three crosses of Bowetzel and one of his half sister Shining Light.
There are other influences that provide further intensity within this mating but these come further back within the pedigree.
The Wheeler family is the flag bearer for outcross matings around the world. The world of greyhound racing, specially in Australia, certainly needs outcross influences within its pedigrees.
But line breeding will always win out in the end. It is the narrowing-down of the gene pool and if dominant ancestors, proven they can upgrade a pedigree for racetrack success, are used then success can often be assured.
The litter that contains Allen Harper and Allen Lawson is just one such example.
Another is the litter that produced Tonneli Bale (Collision-Ambrosia Bale).
Tonneli Bale is a multiple Group winner of the Ladies Bracelet and WA Oaks. She has been a finalist in a number of Group races and unlucky in most.
I have noticed in recent times that Paul Wheeler and his family are having great success with broodbitches that are in-bred along the tail female line to their own famous broodbitch family.
Ambrosia Bale (Ashom Bale-Daishi Bale) the dam of Group performers Tonneli Bale, Martili Bale and Stefan Bale, traces directly to the half sisters Dynagold (Benjamin John-Dynabolt) and Emiline Bale (The Smoother-Dynabolt).
Dynagold is the fourth dam of Ashom Bale. Emiline Bale is the fourth dam of Daishi Bale.
Take a very close look at Benden Flex, the dam of champion Dyna Lachlan. She too is bred along a similar intensity along the tail female line of her pedigree to the Wheeler foundation damline.
Ambrosia Bale, a very good race bitch who won in 30.18 around Albion Park, is a half sister to Wheeler's Turanza Bale.
She is also heavily line bred to the litter brothers Walkabout Sid (via his son head Honcho) and West Cape via a daughter. Both are SONS of Brother Fox and appear in the pedigree of Ambrosia Bale through its middle.
Tonneli Bale and her littermates are by Collision who is the greatest source of balance for sons of Brother Fox.
Collision has as his second dam the famous broodbitch Follow Through a DAUGHTER of Brother Fox. It is the only instance of Brother Fox in the pedigree of Collision.
He was the perfect balance for Ambrosia Bale.
Ambrosia Bale has had two other litters, to Big Daddy Cool and Stryker's Ahadow.
Big Daddy Cool has only two SON strains of Brother Fox in his pedigree via his sire Just The Best.
Stryker's Shadow has no Brother Fox but he carries another son of Brother Fox's sire Little Blade again no balance.
The Big Daddy Cool and Stryker's Shadow litters from Ambrosia Bale could hardly compare to her mating to Collision.
I do hope Paul Wheeler has used Ambrosia Bale to Surf Lorian.
It would duplicate West Cape in a very powerful position in the pedigree of the resultant offspring.
Another option for Ambrosia Bale would be Collision's champion son Smooth Fancy.
Having a great broodbitch does not necessarily guarantee success unless the mating is designed to suit.

Laura Green - UK entrepeneur in fashion
The business owner with Down's Syndrome (video 3m 21s)
Kate Monaghan, BBC News, 10th July 2015
"I didn't want to work in Asda. I wanted to run my own business," says 28-year-old Laura Green. The young entrepreneur from Runcorn, Cheshire, says that because she has Down's Syndrome people didn't think it was even worth talking to her about her future ...
"There was no career planning at school for me. I was just killing time until I was moved onto the next step in the system. After three years I said 'no more' and I left." With that, Green spent time with family and friends trying to work out what it was she wanted to do with her life.
"I decided that I wanted to work in fashion. Not for someone else but I wanted to set up my own business selling fashion accessories. So that's what I did."
The 21 people with Down syndrome at work - 21 different jobs posts are being compiled into a single page, linked in the list just under the banner at the top of this screen.

Kashigashira is refurbished now
We heard that Kashigashira closed for a while because of refurbishment, so we went to there before that.
I wonder also this stairs will be repaired… ?
There is a rumor that Kashigashira's interior will be based on pink color 😛 Just a rumor. But Kashigashira's uniform is vivid pink colored T-shirt and we expected just a little 😛
Though I didn't feel hungry at that time, I thought I have to go there before the closing all the same 🙂
We ordered smaller assorted sashimi (刺し盛り). That's two portions.
Wooow ! My delight, sea urchin there !!! And, squid, sardines….
O-toro, Chu-toro, barracuda, salmon ….
silver striped round herring, octopus …
Though I didn't order any rice at first, but I couldn't help putting my sea urchin on the rice like this !!
By the way, Kashigashira's specialty at luchtime is it. Great popular. Tsukiji Jyogai bowl. Two-tier bowl ! Another bowls must be ordered by one person, but it can be ordered one by two persons because it is too large.
After Kashigashira, I went to Turret Coffee that serves tasty coffee by myself. My friend have another reservation at nighttime at Kashigashira !!! Day and night he Kashigashira !! Jealous !
My drink was chai tea latte (チャイティーラテ) 430 yen.
This cafe is so small and popular, so if you are unlucky, you can't enter the shop. (You can take drinks away :))
I could be seated last vacant seat at that time, too. But while drinking, another seats was going to be vacant one after another.
Kashigashira'll be reopen from 25 of this month.
Because it is not a big renovation, so it'll take not much time.

Looking On The Bright Side of Weddings
Morilee Madeline Gardner: Your Ultimate Guide to Choosing the Best Wedding Dress for Your Body Type
Wedding is considered as one of the biggest events of a person's entire lifetime, and choosing the best wedding gown for your body types is as important as saying your actual wedding vows. Having a pear-shaped body type would need a skirt that slowly flare in an 'A' formation from your waist down to the floor, with great highlights to your narrow midsection and moving the eyes away from the hips and thighs. A 'V' neckline or a spaghetti-strap bodice can showcase a more slender upper body, and you'll need durable fabric like taffeta or satin because they don't cling. Always remember that the classic A-line silhouette is great for formal weddings, and you can also use it for dress down using a more casual fabric such as raw-silk shantung or eyelet lace.
For a body type that is busty, it is best to choose a wedding dress having a scooped neckline, opening up your face and not showing a too much cleavage. If you prefer a strapless wedding gown, choose one with a slight dip along the neckline rather than picking one that goes straight across because it will just make your bust appear larger and contained. Avoid fabrics that has a sheen to it because it will just add volume to your chest like satin, silk, or organza.
Having a plus-sized body shape needs an empire wedding gown that starts under the bust, flowing gradually into floor-length A-line without pleating on the fabric like a maternity dress. Choosing a too loose wedding gown style will create an illusion of more weight than you originally want to hide. It is best to choose a wedding gown made of satin to have more structure and avoid styles that are too flowy. A bride with an apple-shaped body type needs to find a wedding dress that cinches in at waistline's smallest point, then flaring out gradually in an A-shape. Have a deep V-neckline to draw people's eyes toward the vertical, and choose lace detailing or ruche for corse-like effects. For tall brides, they can go for simple silhouette or simple princess wedding dresses with minimal ruffles and other embellishments, having a great emphasis to their natural shape. In order to have flow and illusion of curves, straight-lined body shape is great for a princess wedding dress or ball gown.
Do you want to get to know more about the best wedding gown for your body type? Consult a wedding gown professional, feel free to check our homepage or website now. Morilee Madeline Gardner is the perfect wedding gown expert who can help you find the right wedding gown for you, for an unforgettable and priceless wedding event ever!

The college basketball season officially kicked off at the University of Missouri on Saturday. Hordes of students dressed in black and gold left Harpo's Bar and Grill on the corner of 10th and Cherry Streets in downtown Columbia and made their way through campus.
Passing the six stone columns in Francis Quadrangle -- still standing from the 1892 fire that burned down Academic Hall -- and past the lighted dome of Jesse Hall, the students made their way to Tiger Plaza and past the university's iconic Tiger Statue dedicated to Jean Madden. Then down Tiger Avenue, past Faurot Field, where the Tigers have been taking crash course lessons in SEC football, and into Mizzou Arena, the university's well-lighted, raucous basketball facility, where the they hope to do some teaching of their own.
Coming off a 30-5 campaign in 2011-2012, and with the preseason SEC Player of the Year at the helm, expectations are high in Missouri.
Here are the top five reasons why Mizzou will win the SEC:
1) The Best Transfer Class in the History of College Hoops:
With over 400 transfers taking place in college basketball over the past year, the clip at which student athletes are switching allegiances seems to be at an all-time high. However, no single team in college basketball has benefited from an off-season influx of talent quite like this year's Missouri Tigers.
Mizzou has six players who were enrolled at other universities prior to coming to Columbia, including former UConn big man and national championship winner, Alex Oriakhi. At 6'9", 255 lbs, Oriakhi (who recorded a double-double in the 2011 National Championship Game against Butler) gives the Tigers the type of strength on the low block Mizzou fans have been waiting for since Arthur Johnson left school.
Alex Oriakhi (42)
Also joining the ranks in Columbia, to the dismay of many in Auburn, is the broad-shouldered, silky-smooth jump shooter, Earnest Ross. Ross, the 6'5", 222-lb small forward, was Auburn's player of the year in 2010-2011 before transferring to Mizzou. Ineligible for last season, Ross spent the year in the gym and on the court, getting bigger, faster, and stronger as well as working on his defense and already potent outside jump shot. With deadly range, familiarity with the system, a high-top fade that would make the Fresh Prince jealous, and SEC experience to boot -- Ross may prove to be the biggest addition to this talent laden squad.
Joining Ross in the back court is Keion Bell, a 6'4" transfer from Pepperdine who scored more than 1,000 points over his first three seasons in Malibu (averaging 16.4 points/game). A natural two-guard who can score from anywhere on the floor, Bell, the team's best leaper, will end up on more than one highlight reel by season's end.
Other transfers include Jabari Brown, who was the 19th-ranked high school recruit in the country before a brief stint in Eugene, Ore. with the Ducks. Although not eligible until December 17, big things are expected of the 6'5" guard originally from Berkeley, Calif. Rounding out the transfer contingent are Danny Feldman, a big man from Columbia University, and Jordan Clarkson, who averaged 14.2 points/game at Tulsa and was an All-Conference USA player in 2011-2012.
Keion Bell
2) Phil Pressey
The biggest question facing coach Frank Haith this season is whether he will be able to mold a cohesive unit out so many newcomers. His answer is Phil Pressey. "Flip" -- as he is affectionately known -- is the preseason SEC Player of the Year and a Wooden Award Finalist. He's a smart, pass-first point guard capable of knocking down the outside shot and will be counted on to manage Coach Haith's schemes and to distribute the ball on the offensive end.
Phil Pressey
3) Guard Play
Also playing alongside Pressey, Bell, Ross and Brown is Michael Dixon, Jr. Dixon, the best sixth man in the country last year, is a 1,000-point scorer for the Tigers who averaged 13.5 points/game last season for a team that went 30-5 overall. No team in the SEC (or perhaps the country) can boast the kind of depth at the guard position that the Tigers possess.
4) Mizzou Arena
Since replacing the Hearnes Center in 2004 as the home of Missouri basketball, the $75 million Mizzou Arena, which also houses the main athletic administrative offices and ultra modern practice and training facilities, has been a fortress for the Tigers, who are 68-4 at home over the past four years, many wins of which were against top-notch Big XII and non-conference opponents. Mizzou Arena is also famous for being home to some of the nation's best student fan groups including "The Antlers," a self-proclaimed "obnoxious" group of students who have been known to prank call opposing head coaches the night before games and who once met former Arkansas coach Nolan Richardson at the airport with a boar's head on a stick (a stunt which got them temporarily banned from attending games), as well as the "Zou Crew," a louder, albeit better-mannered, band of students. With superior talent, top-notch facilities and a spirited fan base -- SEC opponents will struggle playing on the road this season in Columbia.
Mizzou Arena
5) Big XII Pedigree
Top to bottom, the Big XII was (prior to conference realignment) a stronger basketball conference than the SEC. The Mizzou hoops program is one forged by epic clashes in some of the most daunting basketball cathedrals in the country. From Allen Fieldhouse to Iba Arena -- from Eddie Sutton and Bryant Reeves to Paul Pierce and Roy Williams -- Mizzou has a history of playing in hostile environments against elite competition. And while no one in Missouri is naïve enough to think that trips to Rupp Arena, the O'Dome and Bud-Walton Arena will be a walk in the park. It also won't be enough to rattle the battle-tested Mizzou program.
Come March, there's a strong chance that some combination of these five reasons will have propelled Mizzou basketball to an SEC title -- and maybe more.

Buccaneers struggle all over the field in road loss to Saints
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — After aggravating a lingering shoulder injury, Tampa Bay quarterback Jameis Winston never left the sideline in the second half against the New Orleans Saints.
The way the Buccaneers struggled with and without him, it might not matter when he returns.
In desperate need of a victory, the Bucs instead dropped their fifth in a row in ugly fashion — a 30-10 loss to the surging Saints on Sunday that severely dampened Tampa Bay's hopes of making the playoffs for the first time in a decade.
With Winston laboring, Tampa Bay has scored 13 points combined during back-to-back defeats to NFC South foes Carolina and New Orleans.
"I have to do my job better," said Winston, who went 7 of 13 for 67 yards and was sacked twice. "The quarterback has to get the ball in the end zone, and I'm not doing that."
The Bucs did almost nothing right against the Saints.
Bryan Anger's first punt was blocked and returned for a touchdown. The offense produced 88 yards in the first half, a total the Saints surpassed with a 93-yard drive right after the Bucs pulled within 9-3 on a 50-yard field goal.
Running back Alvin Kamara capped it off, breaking three tackles on a 33-yard touchdown off a screen pass.
"I'm totally embarrassed," Bucs coach Dirk Koetter said. "I would hope they (the players) are."
With Ryan Fitzpatrick relieving Winston, the second half was even worse. The Saints scored two third-quarter touchdowns around a fumble by Tampa Bay tight end O.J. Howard, putting the game away. The Bucs then lost defensive end William Gholston to a neck injury that caused nearly a 10-minute delay before he was taken off on a stretcher.
Koetter said Gholston, who moved his arms and legs while the Bucs medical staff treated him on the field, was getting neurological tests at a hospital.
Winston's status is up in the air, too. He sprained the AC joint in his right shoulder on Oct. 15 at Arizona, and he landed hard on the shoulder when he was sacked in the final minute of the first half against the Saints.
"It's the same thing that's been happening every week," Winston said. "I don't know whose call it was, but they pulled me."
Fitzpatrick went 8 of 15 for 68 yards, finally getting the Bucs into the end zone on an 8-yard scoring toss to tight end Luke Stocker midway through the fourth quarter when they trailed 30-3.
Tampa Bay's longest completion was 15 yards despite having three-time Pro Bowl selection DeSean Jackson and 2016 second-team All-Pro pick Mike Evans at wide receiver. The duo combined for three catches for 38 yards.
"We're too talented to be 2-6," Evans said. "We better come together and fix it. We have to try."
Evans was not sure he would be available for next Sunday's game against the New York Jets. In the third quarter, he raced over and slammed Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore to the ground from behind after seeing Lattimore shove Winston on the sideline.
Winston, who had pointed a finger against Lattimore's helmet, said he told Lattimore to go to his sideline. Evans, who did not see that part, was penalized for a personal foul and could be subject to a fine or suspension.
"I just let my emotions get the best of me," he said. "I saw (Lattimore) pick a fight with my quarterback. I shouldn't have hit him in his back like that. That was kind of malicious."
With frustration mounting, Winston spoke candidly in the locker room after getting an X-ray on his shoulder.
"We should want to be motivated because we don't want to finish the season with two" wins, he said. "I hate losing. Do you hate losing? Do all of you hate losing? We hate losing, too. So we are going to fix things. We have to start playing better."

I was distracted by Anthony Green's Moxie blog this last week and a bit, specifically by the bit about qemu gdb support. This seemed like a really good idea, not to mention being fairly simple to implement, so it's in now for both the SH4 and ARM. The actual debug support just hangs off the existing debugging framework, so the work needed was really just to implement the protocol.
If you want to have a play with it, run lxdream with -g <port> to start an SH4 GDB listener on the given TCP port, or -G <port> to start an ARM GDB listener. Or both for that matter, although gdb is likely to be confused if you actually connect more than one debugger at a time. To note the obvious, you'll need to build an sh-elf-gdb or arm-elf-gdb (respectively) for this; your system debugger is just going to get confused. Also worth noting is that GDB tends to default to big-endian if there's no file loaded – you need to explicitly force it to little endian ("set endian little").
It supports all the usual bells and whistles except watchpoints, which I'm looking into at the moment. They should be reasonably straightforward to implement now, and will have zero cost when they're not being used. And as a nice side-effect of all this I can finally do a full implementation of the on-board UBC.
I probably should have done this a long time ago – It's nice to have a full symbolic debugger without having to actually write one from scratch ^_^

The Alabama Limited Liability Company Act governs limited liability companies in Alabama. A limited liability company (LLC) is a business entity that offers flexibility in taxation, organization and management. It shares characteristics of a corporation as well as those of partnerships and sole proprietorships.
LLCs are proper business entities in the state of Alabama. The Alabama Limited Liability Company Act is found in Chapter 12 of the Alabama Code.
To create an Alabama LLC, the owners, known as members, must file articles of incorporation with the local probate judge in the county in which they intend to locate their initial registered office. An LLC can have as few as one member. The articles of incorporation must set forth the LLC's name, its duration, its purpose, the name and address of its initial registered office and agent, the names and addresses of all its members, as well as the members respective rights and obligations in the LLC. In addition, the articles of incorporation must describe what circumstances, if any, would the LLC dissolve in the event that one or more members left the LLC. Once the members file the articles -- two signed copies -- with the local probate judge, the probate judge will issue a certified copy back to the members and forward the other certified copy to the Alabama Secretary of State.
An LLC has the flexibility in determining a management structure that fits the organization's needs. Members of an LLC have two options in setting up the company's management structure: Members, like in sole proprietorships and partnerships, can also be managers and directors of the company. On the other hand, members can hire separate managers and directors and act analogously to shareholders in a corporation. However, to have manager-managed LLC, the members must elect this option in the company's articles of organization. Otherwise, Alabama law presumes that the company is member-managed.
Limited Liability
One benefit of forming a corporation, as opposed to a partnership or sole proprietorship, is that, in most cases, the shareholders cannot be held personally liable for the debts or other liabilities of the corporation. The law refers to this principal as the "corporate veil." In other words, a corporation's corporate veil protects shareholders from liability. If someone sues the corporation, they can only get assets of the corporation, not the individual owners. Forming an LLC also provides this advantage to its members. Alabama law applies the corporate veil to LLCs. However, members are not always protected. In cases of fraud and misrepresentation, Alabama courts have the authority to "pierce the corporate veil" and hold its members personally liable for certain actions.
An LLC offers the same liability protections that a corporation has. Simultaneously, an LLC offers the tax benefits that partnerships and sole proprietorships have. Partnerships and sole proprietorships get taxed only once. The individual owners must report the business income on their personal tax returns. Corporations, on the other hand, get taxed independently and the owners must report any dividends or income from the corporation to the IRS. Members of an Alabama LLC can simply elect pass-through taxation and be taxed like a sole proprietorship or partnership, avoiding getting taxed twice.
Business owners should contact a qualified attorney licensed to practice in Alabama to determine how the Alabama Limited Liability Company Act applies to their businesses.

Reading, Music and Adventure are nearly synonymous in my world
I should begin this with a little of a disclaimer: I define Adventure incredibly loosely. According to the dictionary, an "adventure is an exciting or unusual experience". Adventure is also technically a noun, but everyone knows it is my favorite verb.
I almost always listen to music when I read or work. Music is the second to books in defining my adventures; often books, music, and memories go hand in hand. Much like the books I read, I attach songs to places and events. In a way, I think they are both my brain's adaptation to memory
I was listening to Shaggy's Hotshot album the day my first boyfriend broke up with me. Half because it was a great album and half because I scratched my N'SYNC No Strings Attached CD.
My last day working in the field in the Philippines I was blasting The Priest and The Matador by Senses Fail. I was in complete awe of the world around me and so proud that I finished one of the physically toughest summers of my life.
On long road trips with my family, I would have my CDs ready, ear phones on, and a novel in my lap. Even now, 9 times out of 10, I will turn on something to match either my mood or the story I am reading and I'll be the first to tell you, my taste in music is far more eclectic than my repertoire of books
Through almost all of Wild by Cheryl Strayed, I had intense movie scores in the background. Movie scores where the protagonist came out the victor and the ending happy.
For The Leisure Seeker by Michael Zadoorian I played piano music in the background while reading about Ella and John's most excellent road trip.
Test this method of pairing music with written word if you'd like. Listen to dark movie scores the next time you read Stephen King (or anything creepy for that matter) and see how different the experience becomes!

I dreamt that I was riding Pegasus, the silvered-winged horse. We were flying through the African sky, heading in a southerly direction. I suddenly realized that we were flying over the Rainbow Nation, my horse had turned black and had lost its wings.
I was now in the Wilderness Forest, at the foot of the Outeniqua Mountains, riding Avalon, a placid Friesian horse. We were slowly making our way along a Blue Gum lined path, and I was hearing the raucous call of the Knysna Loerie. We were riding next to a river of stars, illuminated by the sun. As we moved on, I heard the muffled noise of bubbling water. Avalon started to run faster the closer we got to the water. We were at full gallop when we reached the waterfall. Without any hesitation, my horse headed straight toward the wall of water.
I now found myself on the floodplains surrounding the Okavango Delta. Liberty, my thoroughbred horse, was riding at a full gallop, her body invigorated by the splashing water of our run. She slowed down once we reached the dry grass. A few meters away from us, a herd of wildebeest was quenching their thirst. To the left of us, about ten zebras were overtaking us, completely unfazed by our presence.
The sun was busy setting when we arrived at our camp, a place called Moklowane. My shelter for the night was a tree house overlooking the floodplain we had crossed earlier. I rapidly fell into a deep sleep. Pegasus had come back and took me away once more through the skies. We went to the east, flying over the Victoria Falls fault line, Zambia, Lake Kariba and the Matusadona Park. In Zimbabwe I saw a long procession of hundreds of elephants moving towards the east as well.
At dawn I was now in Mozambique, on an endless white sand beach to the north of Vilanculos. My horse was called Shaman, an Arabian with a white coat and a joyful character. The air was sweet and he was in a playful mood. He was gently trotting, following the line of the breaking waves on the sand and sometimes venturing into the turquoise water, deep enough to wet my feet.
We reached a group of fishermen who were just coming back from deeper waters with the day's catch. Shaman had slowed down to a walking pace; allowing me to see in greater detail what was happing in front of us. Once we had passed the men, he sped up to a gallop again and he was taking me towards a mangrove forest. Once we were under the dome of trees, he dove headfirst into the water and I sank with him into the dark water.
We emerged in the midst of a group of giraffe. They were busy drinking; their forefeet spread and their long necks bent towards the ground. It seemed like an exhausting yoga posture. I was on Django's back as we got out of the water. A South African Boerperd with a bay coloured coat. The giraffes were staring at us with a sweet, slightly surprised look. We were in the Kruger National Park and it was surely the first time that Django had seen a giraffe, since he backed away to get his hooves on dry land. The giraffes weren't impressed by his excitement and curiosity and they moved off in their nonchalant swagger.
Quite unexpectedly, Django decided to follow them and we rode together at a peaceful tempo. It was a short lived experience since Django spotted a herd of buffalo and found them much more interesting than the giraffes. He headed straight over to them for what he must have seen as the beginning of a cattle drive. The herd responded in turn and they turned around like a dark wave to confront their approaching enemy as a united entity. We were catapulted into the air and as I was falling through the air, I remember telling myself that riding was not easy and that I was starting to get tired. The next moment I was straddling a bad tempered buffalo … but that is another story.

Unless you've spent the last year or so living in a cave, odds are good that you've heard of the EPA's proposed Metal Products & Machinery Rule. In a nutshell, MP&M proposes to dramatically limit pollutants from job shop waste streams. Opponents to the rule disagree with much of the EPA's data and argue that the proposal is not viable from a financial or technological standpoint. If approved "as is," the rule would have an enormous impact on the metal finishing industry in the U.S., putting between 10% and 40% (depending on who you ask) of the nation's finishing shops out of business.
Not surprisingly, MP&M has been a rather large topic of conversation on the web. Pages with MP&M-related content have been among the most frequently visited pages on PFOnline in 2001, and keying in "metal products and machinery" into a search engine like Yahoo! yields hundreds of results varying in relevance. That said, I thought I'd take the opportunity to draw attention to some of the web's best resources for information about MP&M.

EPA's Metal Products & Machinery Site
Perhaps the best way to acquaint yourself with MP&M is get your information straight from the horse's mouth. The site features a background of the rule, an explanation of effluent guidelines, an overview of the EPA's data-collection activities, a list of agency contacts, and of course, the proposed rule itself.
Along with AESF and MFSA, the National Association of Metal Finishers is leading the charge against MP&M. The recently redesigned NAMF web site features a vast number of useful resources for learning about MP&M. Click on the "Government Relations" button to access a wealth of MP&M information, including suggestions for communicating effectively with the EPA, a downloadable overview of the MP&M Rule (in Powerpoint format), and much more.
MFSA.org is the online home of the Metal Finishing Suppliers' Association. The site features an MP&M page, a list of MP&M talking points, regulatory updates, and sample letters for those considering submitting comments about the proposed ruling.
One of the most notable aspects of AESF's MP&M coverage is the inclusion of Frank Altmayer's comments that were submitted to the U.S. EPA following his three-minute oral testimony at the March 8, 2001 public hearing in Chicago, IL (click on the Gov't Relations tab to access it). Altmayer is the President of Scientific Control Laboratories, Inc., and also AESF's Technical Director. His comments represent one of the best, most coherent arguments against MP&M to date. Mr. Altmayer has also authored a sampling guidance report for MP&M, which is accesible via AESF's site, as well as www.sclweb.com.
