Cartoon Rarities of the 1930s DVD, Like new
- Sold By: Montecinos Music
- Product Sku:
- Categories DVDs & Movies
- Type: DVD
TOYLAND ADVENTURE (1932): This cartoon was part of the ongoing 'Aesop's Fables' series at Van Beuren Studios. It features a great musical score, including "Goodnight Sweetheart" and "The Siamese Patrol."
PUDDLE PRANKS (1931): One of the first "Flip the Frog" productions by the Ub Iwerks Studio features Flip and his girlfriend dancing and singing in typical early '30s fashion. Iwerks, animator of the first Mickey Mouse cartoons, formed his own studio with Pat Powers in 1931.
BARS AND STRIPES (1931): A great entry in the Krazy Kat cartoon series, produced by the Columbia / Mintz Studio. This series has been one of the most difficult to see, having been withdrawn from TV since the mid '60s.
OLD MOTHER HUBBARD (1935): A rare Cinecolor treat, produced by the Ub Iwerks studio as part of the 'Comi-Color' series. A happy dog convinces the King to 'Cheer Up' in a nod to the FDR depression messages of the time.
TIGHT ROPE TRICKS (1933): A Tom and Jerry cartoon (remamed 'Dick and Larry' TV release). Van Beuren produced the Tom and Jerry cartoons from 1931 through 1933. These Mutt and Jeff-esque characters were possibly Van Beuren's most popular cartoons.
I WANNA BE A SAILOR (1936): A beautifully produced cartoon from Warner Brothers who were granted rights to Technicolor this same year, resulting in a lavish rainbow palette. Director Tex Avery went on to create some of the funniest and most memorable cartoons at both Warner Brothers and MGM.
PASTRYTOWN WEDDING (1935): This wonderful Van Beuren Studio production was the first in the "Rainbow Parade" series of cartoons. It was directed by Ted Eshbaugh, an independent producer who made beautiful color cartoons into the early '30s.
BIRD SCOUTS (1936): Another entry in the Rainbow Parade series by Van Beuren, this rarely seen cartoon is from a original Cinecolor print.
BEACHCOMBERS (1936): Walter Lantz produced the Oswald Rabbit cartoons from 1930 through 1940, after Disney lost the rights to the character and series.
BETTY BOOP'S KER-CHOO! (1932): This great Fleischer Studios entry from the 'golden age' of Betty Boop is loaded with gags and surreal imagery. Not long after this film was produced, the production code forced Betty to be a less provocative character.
BOSKO AT THE BEACH (1932): Producers Hugh Harman/ Rudolph Ising began their careers in animation with Walt Disney, and formed their own studio in the late 1920s. They eventually contracted with MGM, producing some of the most beautiful cartoons of the 1930's.
THE FARMERETTE (1933): In this Van Beuren production, the voice of our heroine is Bonnie Poe, one of the early voices of Betty Boop.
HUNKY AND SPUNKY (1935): As Disney and MGM achieved success with their color series, the Fleischers attempted to win the hearts of viewers as well. Hunky and Spunky debut in this color classic.
BOOM BOOM (1936): This early Porky the Pig cartoon featuring "Beans the Cat" has a most unusual comedic theme - trench warfare!
BEAUTY SHOPPE (1939): This rarity, supervised by Ub Iwerks, stars Gran' Pop Monkey, a popular character created by British cartoonist Lawson Wood.

Picture yourself going on a long hike through an old-growth rainforest. You come to a clearing and super-heated water bubbles out of the ground and trickles into a series of natural rock-ringed pools by the ocean's edge. Now, imagine yourself sinking neck-deep into the hot mineral waters of nature's hot tub. And, just when you can't stand the heat anymore, edging closer to the sea and letting cooling waves wash over you.
This delicious experience on the west coast of Vancouver Island is one of my Top 10 favourite travel experiences served up by Mother Nature in this great province of ours.
With the summer holiday season so tantalizingly close, now is the time to plan your getaway and, perhaps, impress those special visitors from out of province by introducing them to B.C.'s Terrific 10.
This natural hotspring in Maquinna Provincial Park on the remote northern end of Clayoquot Sound on Vancouver Island is worth the extra effort of getting there.
You can reach the park by private boat or via a one-hour water-taxi ride from Tofino.
From the wharf, you hike along an elevated, two-kilometre-long wooden boardwalk that meanders through the trees like some anaconda in the Amazon.
Be warned, though, your legs will feel like rubber on the return hike -- you will be that relaxed!
You have seen the spectacular scenery on the Sea-to-Sky Highway from your car and, perhaps, from a bus.
But nothing beats seeing it from the dome car of the Whistler Mountaineer train (whistlermountaineer.com).
And you get a whole new perspective as you hang out in the open heritage observation car.
It's here that you hear the clickity-clack of steel rail on steel track, and it's here, with the steep granite walls and forested mountains on one side and sparkling expanse of water of Howe Sound on the other that makes you glad that, for once, you left your car behind.
The piece de resistance served up by nature along the rail line at Mile 55.6 is Cheakamus Canyon -- a made-to-order photo op that will make you shutter.
Every since Simon Fraser ran the rapids on the river that bears his name, whitewater enthusiasts have been seeking out the wildest water, and rafting outfitters have been there to offer the experience to even the most novice of adventurers,
From the Rockies, through the Kootenays, from Thompson country to Whistler and from the Yukon to the U.S. border, there is a rafting excursion for you, from a gentle floating foray to a hair-raising ride from hell.
For the latter, take on the Nahatlatch River, if you dare. With 27 rapids in a 12-kilometre stretch, it's no wonder the devil's cauldron draws kayakers and rafters from around the world.
Some have called this crescent-shaped island near Powell River on the Sunshine Coast Canada's South Sea Isle.
That, of course, is an exaggeration, but one thing is true, the island in summer has the warmest water you'll find anywhere on the West Coast.
During a hiking tour, I found the north beach the warmest and the south beach the quietest -- now I know how Robinson Crusoe felt.
If ask enough questions of the locals, you might find the mother of all madronas (another name for the arbutus tree).
I was told it takes six people touching fingertips to encircle the trunk of B.C.'s largest arbutus.
To get to Savary, drive north of Powell River to the tiny community of Lund and then take a water taxi.
This is the holy grail of cyclists. The 455-km trail is the longest of five routes that make up a corridor of recreational trails known collectively as the Spirit of 2010 Trail.
Entry points include Tulameen, Coalmont, Princeton, Summerland, Penticton, Naramata, Kaleden, O.K. Falls and Osoyoos.
The KVR section follows an abandoned rail line and begins at Midway near Grand Forks.
Destroyed by wildfires, all the trestles in the Myra Canyon section above Kelowna have been replaced.
The easy grades and spectacular views make it a suitable route for either family cycling or for hard-core members of the fat-wheel society.
Once the snowboards, skiers and Ski-Dooers pack it in for the season and tranquility returns to the mountain resorts, it's time for nature-lovers to head up the slopes.
There are so many mountains and so little time.
Kokanee Glacier Provincial Park in the Selkirks near Kootenay Lake, for example, offers a panorama of lush valleys, meadowlands and spectacular views.
And, in Mount Revelstoke National Park, the wildflowers will make you think you stepped onto a canvas of Matisse and Monet.
Choose your mountain.
Will it be Mt. Arrowsmith on Vancouver Island. Or, how about Mt. Frosty in Manning Provincial Park?
How about Sun Peaks near Kamloops, Silver Star near Vernon or Big White near Kelowna?
Whichever alpine shangri-la you choose, remember to tread lightly and keep to the trails.
And work out before you go. You should be in "peak" shape before you attempt high-altitude hiking.
If you go: To plan your own Top 10 B.C. travel experience, visit Tourism B.C.'s excellent website at www.hellobc.com
Just off the Coquihalla HIghway about 10 kilometres east of Hope is a hidden gem that people miss as they speed to Kamloops or Okanagan wine country.
A short hike from the parking lot, is a marriage of the natural and the man-made that rivals any attraction on any route in B.C.
Through high canyon walls and high above a torrent of white water is a series of four tunnels and linking footpaths that make up the Othello Tunnels.
The system was part of the historic Kettle Valley Railway line linking the West Coast with the Kootenay region.
Bring a flashlight and hiking boots and enjoy the grandeur.
One of the joys of living on the West Coast is getting to sail the incomparable Inside Passage -- whether by sea kayak, sailboat or cruise ship.
Sailing serenely and at half speed aboard the Radiance of the Seas out of the mysty fiords of Alaska on water that was as placid as a pond, we entered Seymour Narrows between the northern end of Vancouver Island and the mainland.
The air was invigouratingly fresh, the sky a brilliant blue and, from the 12th deck, the dark-green forested slopes at the water's edge appeared so close, we felt we could lean over the edge and touch them.
It doesn't get any better than this.
Each spring, grey whales migrate from their winter home in the Sea of Cortes off Baja California and make their way up the coast to their summer feeding grounds in Alaska. Call it a whale-repositioning cruise.
There are a number of tour operators that will take you out to see these magnificent behemoths as they slowly make their way along Vancouver Island.
I prefer the killer-whale experience. The orcas are easier to see and much more active. Following a pod of orcas out of aptly named Orcas Island in Washington State into the Strait of Juan de Fuca toward Victoria, we got so close that we were able to smell their breath as they dove to dine on a school of fish and rose to exhale in a plume of misty eau-de-salmon.
One of the best orca-viewing areas is in Johnstone Strait between the mainland and northern Vancouver Island. When you're there, check out the Killer Whale Interpretive Centre at Telegraph Cove (killerwhalecentre.org).
There is no bigger rush than zipping high above the ground, over rushing water and through a rainforest canopy with only a steel umbilical cord saving your from being splattered like an egg on a fryng pan.
This growing outdoor phenomenon can be experienced at Whistler/Blackcomb with Ziptrek Ecotours (ziptrek.com).
My only ziptrekking experience was in Costa Rica. And the wild ride there was on 11 separate ziplines down to the forest canyon floor. What a blast!

The Swabian-Franconian Forest Nature Park has something for everyone, from meadows and vineyards reminiscent of the Mediterranean to rugged forest ravines and the UNESCO World Heritage Roman Limes.
Whether you're roaming through forests and fields, enjoying the orchard blossom, exploring cliffs and caves or immersing yourself in local history, the great outdoors awaits together with a broad spectrum of natural and cultural attractions – and all right on the doorstep of Stuttgart. This is a place where everyone can enjoy nature: hikers, for example, will love the extensive network of trails, especially the St. James' Pilgrimage Way and the Mill Trail. The natural surroundings can also be taken in by bicycle or e-bike, and special mountain bike trails will get the adrenaline pumping. The world of the Romans can be explored at the UNESCO World Heritage Roman Limes, the boundary of the Roman empire, while historical flour mills, sawmills and oil presses bear testimony to traditional skills. Members of the Naturparkteller restaurant association offer regional specialities for lovers of fine food and drink, while the nature park's markets are good places to pick up local produce and crafts. The tour guides, who act as the nature park's ambassadors, put on exciting events on Sundays and public holidays showcasing the local cultural and natural attractions. A wealth of family-friendly and wheelchair-accessible activities is also available. The nature park centre in Murrhardt, with its Nature Park Experience Show, provides a good introduction to the great outdoors. So whatever your plans for a holiday or a day trip, the Swabian-Franconian Forest Nature Park has plenty to offer everyone.

Lolika is the girl next door. Only she isn't next door.
She's in bed doing what beautiful ladies do and that's why we call her Lady Lolika. She stretches like a cat, rolls over and presents us with a glimpse of paradise in this sensuous and revealing little film. Lolika is 18. She adores nude modelling and believes first and foremost in freedom.
Hardly surprising that Petter Hegre discovered her during his recent journey through the Orange Revolution in the Ukraine.

The majority of ASP.NET websites are built using the ASP.NET Web Forms model. It provides a simple, stateful abstraction over the stateless HTTP protocol, and focuses on server-side processing. Recently, websites have focused more on a client-side model with the use of JavaScript, AJAX, and REST-style services. With the introduction of the ASP.NET Web API in ASP.NET 4.5, it is now possible to add advanced client-side functionality to existing sites, while retaining many of the benefits of the Web Forms model.
A Simple Web Forms Application
To understand how to supercharge an existing Web Forms application with the ASP.NET Web API, let's first take a brief look at a Web Forms app that I'll use as an example. Figure 1 shows the list view of a simple Tasks application, which was created using the new Web Forms template shipped as part of Visual Studio 2012.
Figure 1: The Tasks page in list mode.
The Add New Task button and the Edit links in the Grid allow the user to add new tasks or edit the relevant existing tasks.
Assume that you have been given a new requirement: Instead of just displaying the "Is Complete" status of the task, the application should display a checkbox and allow users to update the status of the task (rather than having to click "Edit" and be redirected to the edit page).
You could fulfill this requirement by using a checkbox column in the ASP.NET
GridView control and switching the
Adding the ASP.NET Web API using Nuget
ASP.NET Web API was released in conjunction with the .NET 4.5/Visual Studio 2012 release, but it doesn't actually require .NET 4.5. Instead, it's built against the earlier .NET 4.0 release. To add Web API support to an existing project, we can use Nuget to install the latest version, either via the website or via one of the integration points such as Manage Nuget Packages in Visual Studio (Figure 2).
Figure 2: Adding the Web API using Nuget.
This ensures you have the relevant components installed and will allow you to update those components if newer versions of the ASP.NET Web API are released. Note that, depending on what features of the ASP.NET Web API you want to use, you may still have to add some assembly references manually.
Adding a Web API Controller
The first step in adding our new feature using the Web API is to create a Web API
Controller class (Figure 3). The Web API has some similarities to ASP.NET MVC in that the new class extends the
ApiController base class and, by convention, is called
TasksController. I will show how this convention works when we review the URI that needs to be called for our methods to be executed.
Figure 3: Adding a new Web API controller class.
In the controller class, I will create a single method,
UpdateStatus, that updates the task and changes the value of the
IsComplete property, taking the ID as a single parameter (Listing One). As this is an update operation, I follow the convention of making the action method work with the
PUT HTTP method (verb). I indicate that by using the
HttpPut attribute on the method.
Listing One: The UpdateStatus Method
[HttpPut] public HttpResponseMessage UpdateStatus(int id) { try { var db = new TasksContext(); Task task = (from t in db.Tasks where t.TaskID == id select t).SingleOrDefault(); if (task == null) { return Request.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.NotFound); ; } task.IsComplete = !task.IsComplete; db.SaveChanges(); return Request.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK); } catch (Exception exc) { return Request.CreateErrorResponse(HttpStatusCode.InternalServerError, exc); } }
In this simple example, I am the using Entity Framework for persistence, and the first few lines of this method retrieve the task to be updated. As long as I have a valid task (that is, the task is not null), I simply change the value of the
IsComplete property and save the changes. This is fairly straightforward Entity Framework code.
If the update is successful, I create a new
HttpResponseMessage with the OK status code (
200), and this response is sent back to the caller. If there are exceptions, I create an
HttpResponseMessage with the appropriate status code and, in the case of an Internal Server Error, details of the exception.
Adding Routing Information to Application_Start
Now that I have a Web API
Controller class to route to, I need to set up the routes in the
Application_Start event handler, so the Web API can execute the correct method. ASP.NET Web API routes are similar to ASP.NET MVC Routes. Two example routes are shown in Listing Two.
Listing Two: Adding ASP.NET Web API Routes to Application_Start.
RouteTable.Routes.MapHttpRoute( name: "DefaultApi", routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}", defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional } ); RouteTable.Routes.MapHttpRoute( name: "TasksApi", routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{action}/{id}", defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional } );
The first route is the default Web API route. Using this route, it's possible to use URIs like
{controller} place-holder routes control to the relevant Web API controller class. In the aforementioned example, it will be routed to the
TasksController, and
"api/products" would route to the
If used with the
GET HTTP method (or verb), this URI is mapped to an action method that starts with the prefix
Get, such as
GetTask or
GetTaskById, and the parameter (
5) is passed as the ID parameter of the action method. Similarly, if used with the
DELETE HTTP method, this URI is mapped to an action method that starts with the prefix
Delete, such as
DeleteTask or

I could have followed this convention and used the
Put prefix in the name of the action method I created in Listing One, but the action method does not contain any of these HTTP method prefixes. I can handle this by defining a second route to send control explicitly to a specific action. In this case, the

Different Types of Dentures Carlisle, MA 01741

If you wear complete dentures, the Carlisle, MA 01741 dentist may be able to help you improve your satisfaction with your dentures. Studies show that more than half the people with complete lower dentures are not happy with them. For complete upper dentures, the number of dissatisfied patients jumps to seventy-five percent.

Speaking and eating may feel strange at first, but the expert fit designed by our denture dental pros in Carlisle, MA 01741 will help you become accustomed to your new dentures quickly.

IMPLANT RETAINED DENTURES Carlisle MA 01741
Replacing missing teeth with implant retained dentures
Usually, when you lose a tooth, it is best for your oral health to have it replaced. Missing teeth can affect your "bite" as well as your ability to speak and chew. Their loss can increase the burden on your remaining teeth and can cause muscle pain in your jaws and headaches. And of course, losing a tooth can affect your appearance. The following information reviews replacing missing teeth with an implant retained denture Carlisle MA 01741.
Although many patients have no problem wearing an upper denture, some people find it difficult to wear and eat with lower dentures. Several implant-supported replacement options are available if you are missing all of your lower teeth.
What if I'm missing all of my lower teeth?
Ball Attachment Denture
One option is to have two implants placed in your lower jaw and a denture made that snaps onto these implants. This option allows your lower denture to be more stable while chewing than without implants. However, there will still be movement of your lower denture, and sore spots will occur if any food particles, especially seeds, are caught under it. As with all removable replacement teeth, you still will need periodic appointments for denture adjustment.
1. Before
2. Implants Placed
3. Denture Attached
Bar Attachment Denture Carlisle MA 01741
Another option involves placing four to six implants, depending on your jaw size or shape, into your lower jaw. After healing is complete, the implants are connected with a custom-made support bar. Your denture will be made with special internal retention clips that attach onto the support bar, enabling the denture to snap firmly into place. This is called an "overdenture." The advantage of this option is that it is much more stable than the first option and allows very little denture movement. Your denture is still removable for easy cleaning and maintenance.
1. Before
2. Implants Placed
3. Denture Attached
Screw Retained Denture Carlisle MA 01741
A third option involves placing five or more implants in your jaw and attaching a permanent denture. Your denture is held in place by screws or clasps that secure it to the support posts or bar. It doesn't touch the gum tissue, which allows you to clean under the denture without removing it. This denture will replace all your missing lower teeth and will not be removed except at maintenance visits. Although cleaning under your denture without removing it is more time consuming and requires more dexterity, many patients who want a permanent denture prefer this option.
1. Before
2. Implants Placed
3. Denture Attached
What If I'm Missing All Of My Upper Teeth?
A similar range of treatment options is also available for your upper jaw. However, because the bone is not as hard as that in the lower jaw, people often need more implants to support their new replacement teeth. Depending upon the number of implants to be placed, it may be possible to eliminate the need for covering the roof of your mouth with a complete denture. This option allows you to fully taste your food and gives you a better sense of its temperature. Your denture will feel more natural. You will still have a removable denture, which makes cleaning the support bar and denture much easier.
Implant Retained Upper Denture Carlisle MA 01741
Depending upon the number of implants to be placed, it may be possible to eliminate the need for covering the roof of your mouth with a complete denture. This option allows you to fully taste your food and gives you a better sense of its temperature. Your denture will feel more natural. You will still have a removable denture, which makes cleaning the support bar and denture much easier.
Implant benefits
- Improved confidence
- Stability during eating
- Bone and gum preservation
- Improved dental hygiene
- Superior esthetics
- Nutritional benefits
Our denture repair specialists will advise you of the condition of your denture and will recommend steps needed in preventing further breakage.
There are two basic types of denture repairs: simple repairs and repairs with impressions. The dentist will need to see the denture to determine the extent of the repair required, or if the denture can be repaired. It may not be possible to repair an older denture that has experienced considerable wear.
Please do not try to repair the dentures yourself. This may result in the need for a new denture.

Use git-r3 for live ebuilds.
Update the emul-linux blocker to support abi_x86_32 flag on emul-linux.
Bump the emul-linux-x86 blocker to match the new release.
Introduce multilib support for xlibs.
Add EAPI 5 sub-slot dependency on x11-base/xorg-server for packages which require rebuilding when the server is upgraded.
naive bump of all EAPI-specific checks in eclasses to permit EAPI=5 where EAPI=4 was previously allowed
Fix disable-dependency-tracking passing. Fixes bug#372239.
Replace remove_libtool_files with prune_libtool_files.
Fix not assigned variable. IE bug#416673.
Fix xorg-2's git:// EGIT_REPO_URI.
Raise util-macros dependency.
dev-util/pkgconfig -> virtual/pkgconfig
Use autotools-utils to reconfigure.
xorg-2.eclass: bump util-macros dependency
Update fonts.scale & fonts.dir on font removal. This way, user won't end up with invalid fonts in the listings (and thus segfaulting xfontsel). Fixes: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=384649
Fix typo in fonts.scale filename.
ewarn -> eqawarn to not stress users with our mistakes.
fix random bugs in eclass documentation, and convert to new @AUTHOR tag
Raise dependency on util-macros
Add a http fallback URI for git.
Fix typo video -> input
Add more common protos.
All input drivers require inputproto so just handle it in eclass.
Replace CONFIGURE_OPTIONS with XORG_CONFIGURE_OPTIONS array. Use git-2 eclass.
Update util-macros dependency.
Fixup die case for eapi in qt4-r2 and xorg-2 eclasses.
Append to IUSE, do not override it.
Update ewarn to explicitly state what ebuild is broken

Add missed asciidoc to the documentation list.
update util-macros depenency to latest stable.
Make BASE_INDIVIDUAL_URI a tweakable value. When setting it to an explicit empty string, it will signal the eclass not to provide a SRC_URI at all. This is useful both for software using the xorg interface but not the freedesktop source uri, and for writing custom git-based ebuilds.
Some docs are still in dtd:4.1.
Depend on proper xorg-server for all drivers.
Alter the deps only for video drivers this way.
Sync eclass from the x11 overlay. Changes: - use of autotools-utils, with out of tree builds by default; - complete .la file removal, - common doc and video driver dependency handling, - simplified font encoding disable calls (with new enough util-macros).
Revert disable-dependency-tracking and stick to eapi4 for this.
By default disable dependency tracking, all x11 packages support this one.
Add debug-print sections, Fix typo in variable description, add eapi=4 as basically supported by this eclass.
Add PACKAGE_NAME variable that allows specification of git checkout folder, so we dont have to respecify complete EGIT_REPO_URI.
Append eautoreconf depstring to archs where it is mandatory to run eautoreconf. (this is required for cache)
static-libs useflag is not required on x11-apps at all so drop it in eclass rather than per-package.
Update dep for util-macros to latest.
Conditional previous commit in favor of stripping it only on libs.
Filter bdirect support in eclass rather than per package since it is broken in probably all libs (based on my small testing)

Fix wrong variable usage.
x-modular -> xorg2 in eclassdoc

xorg-2.eclass: bump util-macros dep to 1.8.0, see bugs #320625 and #322559
Drop epatch_user, already executed by base eclass. Thx to sedzimir.

Although men and women are both reluctant to talk about Medicare and health care planning with their financial advisors, women are more likely to be worried about it, a survey released Wednesday by Allsup found.
Allsup surveyed 1,000 people over 65 for the report and found women are much less confident about their ability to pay for health care in retirement. Just 55% of women say they're confident about how much they've saved, compared with 70% of men.
"Women are more likely to live longer, have fewer financial resources and rely on Social Security as their primary source of income in retirement, so their financial risks are greater as they age," Mary Dale Walters, senior vice president of Allsup Medicare Advisor, Allsup's Medicare selection service, said in a statement. "Living longer usually means greater health care expenses in retirement, such as more premiums."
When asked to name specific retirement concerns, 63% of women said they were concerned about the future of Medicare coverage, compared with 59% of men. Paying for long-term care (46%) and health care (43%), and outliving their retirement funds (40%) were other major concerns.
"Advisors working with couples need to understand that not only may each spouse's concerns be different, the optimum health care coverage for each also may be different," Walters said. "For example, after decades of sharing the same private employer health insurance, couples may be better served by having different Medicare plans as they age into Medicare because their health care needs — and costs — are going to be different."
Medicare open enrollment runs Oct. 15 to Dec 7. Allsup identified six ways advisors can help their senior clients prepare.
- Talk about it. Allsup found only 29% of women and 27% of men have brought up Medicare with their financial advisor.
- Recognize the difference between men and women. Allsup found women's primary Medicare concern was about increases in monthly premiums, while men worried more about out-of-pocket expenses rising higher than they thought they would. "Understanding the differences in attitudes, as well as having a realistic understanding of Medicare costs and health care expenses, is one way financial advisors can further help clients when planning for retirement," Walters said.
- Make Medicare planning part of overall retirement planning. A quarter of women and 30% of men have allocated for health care increases in their retirement plan.
- Educate and correct misconceptions. Clients may be confused about what exactly they're getting for their premiums. "Paying a lot of money in premiums—'just in case' or in lieu of an on-point review and assessment of health care needs—is not an effective financial planning strategy," Walters said. "Your clients may have biases that affect their decisions, such as Medigap versus Medicare Advantage, or a recognizable national insurance company versus a regional plan with an unfamiliar name. Help them recognize how this can affect costs."
- Include planning for a spouse's death. Allsup noted clients with retiree health care coverage especially need to focus on how this will affect their coverage.
- Make ongoing reviews of Medicare needs. Remind clients that open enrollment isn't a one-time event. They need to review their needs each year as their health, financial and living situations change. "It's vital that every senior understands that the annual enrollment period presents a critical opportunity to confirm they are paying for coverage they actually use and have a Medicare plan that doesn't cost them hundreds or thousands of dollars more than they need to pay for good coverage," Walters said.

Other butterfly houses in Germany: Steinhude Butterfly Farm, Friedrichsruh Butterfly Garden, Sayn Palace in Bendorf, Mainau Island Butterfly House, Alaris Butterfly Park in Sassnitz
If you love colourful butterflies then a trip to Europe's biggest butterfly farm, located in Trassenheide on the sunny Baltic island of Usedom, should be top of your to-do-list. And once you get there, be sure to allow time for a trip to the Nature Discovery Park in Bad Heringsdorf.
Europe's largest butterfly farm, at 5,000m², features a butterfly park, a huge tropical glasshouse with over 2,000 free-flying butterflies from some 60 species, an insect museum, a tarantula display, a glass art exhibition and an insect cinema. Inside the glasshouse you can watch these magnificent winged insects flying freely and see how they develop: from egg to caterpillar, caterpillar to cocoon and cocoon to butterfly. The best time to see butterflies hatching is about ten o'clock in the morning. The mild tropical climate of around 30°C and up to 85 per cent humidity allows the many tropical plants to flourish, creating an ideal habitat for the butterflies. Spring at the farm is all about the banana harvest and the huge blossom on the plants. Every day in July/August you can watch the tarantulas being fed from 11am, while listening to fascinating facts about the world of spiders. The biodiversity of our planet is demonstrated in the insectarium. Incredible insects, beetles that shimmer like gold, and the world's largest butterflies are all on display here. The 150m² insectarium, which is made up to look like a secret cave, also houses 40 intriguing terrariums. The impressive exhibition on glass art is another must-see.
The Nature Discovery Park at the Baltic resort of Heringsdorf is also part of the butterfly farm. See nature in a new light as you explore 500 million years of natural history. The huge site includes an adventure park, dominated by a life-sized (and deceptively life-like) Torosaurus. Continuing through the beautiful garden, passing lions, an ancient Chinese waterwheel and a waterfall and onwards to the bamboo maze, visitors young and old will find plenty to explore. In the aquariums you can marvel at brightly coloured tropical fish; in the terrariums, the focus switches to beetles, spiders and other insects. Top attractions at the park include a fossilised dinosaur nest with eight well-preserved eggs dating back around 120 million years, plus a five-tonne amethyst druse that is around 50 million years old. Experience the mysterious atmosphere inside the walk-in cave, which is made from 5,000 amethyst crystals, before heading to the reflection chamber, where various gemstones glow in the darkness.

Chris Roberts is responsible for some massive milestones in PC gaming. As the man behind the Wing Commander and Privateer series of games, as well as other notable titles like Strike Commander and the more recent Freelancer, he can rightfully be called the father of the space combat simulator genre. Unfortunately, he hasn't produced a game in nearly ten years. During that time, the market for such games has sadly dried up, and real stick-and-ethereal-rudder aficionados have been left without any flagship titles, turning their attention instead to community efforts like the Freespace 2 Source Code Project to keep their skills sharp.
We might soon be in for an exciting change. Ars alumnus Ben Kuchera recently posted a link and a short message over on the Penny Arcade Report: "Type in '42' and get very excited." The link points to a website named "Roberts Space Industries," and after a short animation, typing "42" into the site's secret code entry form yields a message from Roberts himself.
"I always said the moment I became interested in making games again was when I was going to come back," says the note. "My new endeavor is still in its early stages but I invite you to take the journey with me."
To access the site further, you must register with a username and password; once you do this, there are several additional things to explore. The first thing you see upon registering is a "Golden Ticket":
The ticket suggests that there will be more information released about the project at 10am on October 10, at the Game Developers Conference Online. The ticket also indicates that by registering at the site now, you'll be able to "participate in the game's development over the next 24 months," and that you'll receive "a very special equipment package" in the game when it is eventually released.
There is plenty more to read on the site, including several messages from Roberts discussing why he has chosen to start coding again and several small mood-setting in-universe blurbs. There's also a countdown timer on all the pages, which currently stands at 27 days and some change—the amount of time until the apparent GDC Online announcement.
"My name is Chris Roberts," concludes the site's welcome message, "and if you would indulge me I would like to create a world for you."
It has been years since I've had occasion to plug in my CH Combatstick and tell my wingman he's clear to attack; whatever Roberts' new world turns out to be, it can't arrive soon enough.

Don't be ridiculous. This is not about Anna Kendrick and Kristen Stewart -- why would you think that? The title tells you everything you need to know. Obviously the title refers to Ashley Greene and Kellan Lutz.
Last month Lutz declared during a magazine interview that he would win an Oscar one day. Click here for a refresher.
This month, Ashley Greene declared during an interview with Seventeen Magazine that in the next five years she "wants to win an Oscar or an Emmy". Click here for more from Greene in Seventeen.
What is this epidemic? Oscar-winning is a self-prediction that seems to be spreading at an alarming rate among the untalented. And while the Academy is certainly flawed, it's certainly not the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. When has the Academy ever given any reason to believe that Oscar is easy? Oscar has never been easy. Ask Annette Bening. And Julianne Moore. Ask Matthew McConaughey who's been hungry for a year and might not even be considered when the time comes.
But still the Ashley Greenes and the Kellan Lutzes of the world toss that sh-t off like it's a travel destination:
One day I want to go to India = One day I want to win an Oscar
But, no, really, I want to know -- how do they do it? How does Ashley Greene go from her movie Apparition reviewing at 0% -- that's ZERO PERCENT -- on Rotten Tomatoes while continually being only sent scripts for sh-tty horror movies to believing an Oscar might be a possibility???
My ma never taught me that skill. Did my ma fail me?
Here they are, Twilight's two future Oscar winners, Kellan Lutz and Ashley Greene, at the big premiere of Twilight 5 last night in LA.
And here they are, in what will surely be Oscar archival footage one day, demonstrating their burgeoning Oscar potential in a scene that even Streep and Pacino would probably struggle with.

Raymond James (RJF) Chief Investment Strategist Jeffrey Saut believes advisors and their clients need to catch the market's spring fever.
"I see good markets through July or August," he said to a packed crowd at the firm's annual independent-advisor conference in Dallas on Tuesday, which attraced about 1,600 advisors and 1,800 other guests.
Saut also emphasized something he's been saying in his regular blogs for the broker-dealer: "There's a decent probability that we are in a secular bull market that has a decade or so to run."
The investment expert told advisors (in his April 22 note), "I don't think that 'sell in May' kind of strategy is going to work this year," pointing to the fact that the market is "far from the overextended levels reached at the prior peaks of early 2000 and October of 2007."
Saut adds that stocks do not look overvalued. "Indeed, on a trailing EPS basis the SPX is trading at 15.1 times trailing earnings and 13.7 times forward estimates. Juxtapose that to 25.1 times estimates in 2000 and 15 times at the 2007 peak."
There are many factors driving his positive outlook, including higher housing prices, the return of manufacturing to the U.S. and the growth of the energy sector.
The expert pointed to the continued growth of the middle class in many overseas markets as another significant and positive long-term trend. Some 46% of the S&P 500 companies' sales, and 40% of profits, come from outside the U.S., he said. "Meanwhile, recession risks from Europe are fading."
If the markets take a quick tumble, Saut says to jump in: "Accordingly, any correction affords investors the opportunity for new buying in favorably rated stocks. Indeed, if you want to catch a wave you have got to grab a board and get into the water!"

Developer Reading List: The Must-Have Books for JavaScript, February 12, 2013 The best books for learning the basics, becoming expert, and and writing complete apps in JavaScript
Introductory Tutorials
Eloquent JavaScript, by Marijn Haverbecke
The Book of JavaScript, 2nd Edition, by Dave Thau!
A deeper and somewhat more readable tutorial than the first book, but solely focused on JavaScript and Ajax. At more than 500 pages, it presents a lot more code, and includes reference material for basic Ajax functionality. If JavaScript and Ajax are your entire ambit, this might be the only book you use. However, if you're looking at current tools and applications, this title, which came out in 2007, will leave you a little behind the times. Recommended primarily for its presentation of language features.

"SmartBear has been supporting its growing SoapUI and LoadUI community for more than three years, so we now are strengthening that commitment," said Ole Lensmar, codeveloper of SoapUI and chief architect at SmartBear.
"Together with a range of features that rivals other paid products and without any trial periods, it aims to be an essential tool for load testing within Agile and other software development lifecycles," he added.
Lenmar says that WebLoadUI has a wizard-based interface, so that developers can go beyond simply "pinging websites" and move to a point where they are able to simulate real user activity for a large number of virtual users.
Key benefits include the ability to run load and stress tests on any web server or type of Rich Internet Application (RIA), using the 15 built-in data generators.
"WebLoadUI builds on our vision to help developers, especially the one million users in the SoapUI community, to create great, quality software," said Niclas Reimertz, Managing Director, SmartBear Sweden. "By making it easier and simpler for all developers to load test web applications for free, we are empowering quality software development, which is the essence of our mission. The benefactors will be both the development community and the end users."

Always one to stun on the red carpet of the GRAMMY Awards, Jennifer Lopez might have people finally saying, "What green dress? Did you see the black one she wore?"
The twittersphere lit up once JLo showed off how much leg she could reveal in her off the shoulder Anthony Vaccarello, so much so that it even got it's own twitter account.
Jennifer Lopez's leg just made Angelina Jolie's leg irrelevant.

International Board of Auditors for NATO (IBAN)
The International Board of Auditors for NATO (IBAN) is the independent, external audit body of NATO. Its main mandate is to provide the North Atlantic Council and the governments of NATO member countries with assurance that common funds have been properly used for the settlement of authorised expenditure.
Guided by three core values - independence, integrity and professionalism - the IBAN strives to be the respected voice of accountability within NATO.
Tasks and responsibilities
The IBAN is responsible for auditing the expenditure incurred by NATO. The IBAN conducts several types of audits:
- Financial audits of NATO bodies result in an audit opinion on the presentation of the financial statements and on the compliance with budgetary authorisations and applicable regulations.
- Performance audits are carried out to evaluate the economy, efficiency and effectiveness of the activities and operations of NATO bodies.
- NATO Security Investment Programme (NSIP) audits cover the expenditure made by NATO bodies and member countries under the NISP. The audit results in the certification of the final amount charged to NATO.
Working mechanisms
The IBAN is composed of six Board Members, appointed by Council for a four-year, non-renewable term. Board Members are usually members of their respective national audit institution or government officials with audit experience. They have independent status and report only to the Council.
The Chairman of the Board is appointed by the Council for a two-year term. The Board is assisted by auditors and secretarial staff with NATO International Staff status.
The IBAN was established in 1953, just four years after the signing of NATO's founding treaty and has since been restructured to adapt to the demands of the environment in which it functions.

Tagged: Future Angels
Congratulations Ervin Santana!!!
Taking the mound Wednesday morning for the Angels and Indians rubber match, Ervin Santana did his best to make absolutely certain no pre-game write-up will ever discuss his history of failure against Cleveland again. I'd say he was successful. Wouldn't you? 😉
Santana's first win against Cleveland was only MLB's third no-hitter this season, the first of his own career, and the Angels first solo no-hitter since Mike Witt pitched his perfect game against the Rangers in 1984. (Witt and Mark Langston combined for a no-hitter against the Mariners in 1990). I tell you, there are serious perks to having the number three guy in your starting rotation be of such a high caliber that when he has his control, he could be the number two or even number one guy on a lot of team's pitching staffs. The Angels may not have the Phillys Four Aces, but you've got to love two aces, two not quite aces and one ace in training. Won't get you much at the poker table, it's true, but in the AL, it could get you pretty far indeed.
Congratulations Ervin! Very well deserved! What a personal accomplishment and what an accomplishment for the team! And well we're at it, let's not forget the rest of the team who helped get Santana there – Santana certainly didn't forget them in his always humble comments after the game. Special recognition should be given to Peter Bourjos, Torii Hunter, Howie Kendrick and Mike Trout for their bats. Torii, Howie, Bourjos and Mark Trumbo for their defense and Bobby Wilson for calling one heck of great game. The Angels have now won three series in a row and 11 of their last 14 series. And the Twins appear to have taken my Glamour List – The Baseball Edition #10 to heart, so today is a very good day indeed. 🙂
* * * * *
I've mentioned once or twice in this blog that my husband and I sometimes refer to Santana as Hobbes. Well, stills from today's no-hitter game footage, finally allow me to explain myself with a few helpful visual aids. Check this out.
Mild mannered, affable, everyday teammate with one of the sweetest, most endearing smiles in the majors:
With game face firmly in place:
Uncanny, no?
Just remember, who kicked the most behind at Calvinball? That's right. Not Calvin. Hobbes did. Coincidence? I think not!
* * * * *
One more reason why I wish I had played hooky and stayed home to watch this game, out of a very, very long list? (Yeah right, like I've ever been that irresponsible in my entire life, sigh.) Peter Bourjos and Mike Trout playing together in the same outfield, with Bourjos in center and Trout in left, batting one behind the other in the same line-up. I managed to listen to the radio for Bourjos' triple – man, that kid can fly! – immediately followed by Trout's veteran quality battle with the pitcher culminating in a sacrifice fly to deep right center and a game tying RBI. And I got chills. Seriously. It was like the best teaser trailer for the Angels 2012 season ever. Ever.

Don't even think of typecasting or pigeonholing Angela Graham-West. The university professor-turned-financial advisor fits no mold whatsoever.
An FA since 1998, she joined Raymond James & Associates five years ago in the firm's Fort Lauderdale, Fla., branch and manages client assets of more than $30 million in partnership with FA Leon Rehak.
As an African-American female advisor, Graham-West is a rarity. It would therefore be naïve to expect that gender and race have presented no issues for her working in the predominantly white-male financial services industry.
"We'd be kidding ourselves if we didn't think we have to prove ourselves a bit more. People immediately assume that the older Caucasian male with white hair, before he even opens his mouth, knows what he's talking about—as opposed to me, a black woman with natural hair. I might even be a little wiser, but that's not the first thing that comes to mind," says Graham-West, who is outspoken but chatty, too, in a way that promotes easy rapport.
Her book of business is a mix of clients, both high net worth and middle income. At the upper end, Caucasian individuals predominate.
She aspires to add more affluent African-Americans to her client list and has some promising prospects. But with the population of Broward County—where Fort Lauderdale is located—low in blacks and heavy in Democrats, that's a challenge for this African-American conservative libertarian.
"I do my own prospecting within my own circles. I attract people I have a lot in common with; but I don't know a large number of African-American conservatives," she says. Broward County's population is 20% black, according to Broward.org.
Reflected in Graham-West's client base as well is "the way African-Americans view the Republican Party right now," she notes. "Some clients want to come to an advisor just for their expertise, but others want to identify with you on every level—they view the whole package."
And Graham-West's personal life surely plays a role in prospects' perception of her. She is married to Allen B. West, former Florida congressman and prominent, controversial Tea Party spark who last year lost a bid for re-election. The battle was rancorous on both sides, with West's confrontational—some charge, inflammatory—style fueling detractors.
"My husband and I have some of the same political [philosophy]. We're both conservatives—that's the main thing. But," insists the FA, wed to West for 23 years and by whom she has two teenage daughters, "Allen isn't the conservative dragon the media paints him as. That isn't who he is."
A former Army lieutenant colonel, West, notes his wife, with a laugh, does not win every argument at their Palm Beach Gardens home.
"He's a powerful speaker, but I speak as well. My husband is a very logical speaker, though, which can be frustrating. He'll say: 'Let's remove all emotion and look at this rationally.' As if I wasn't looking at it rationally before!"
Indeed, smarts and sound judgment have gone far to propel Graham-West professionally.
"Angela … has made a significant impact at Raymond James. She's become a role model for women who aspire to a career as a successful financial advisor," says Todd Mackler, senior vice president-investments and branch manager of RJA's Fort Lauderdale office. "She puts the interests of her clients ahead of her own in her conservative, pragmatic approach to investing for their futures."
Yet, because she is a woman and black, achieving that success has come neither swiftly nor easily.
As she told Caucasian teammate Rehak, a Raymond James advisor for nine years, when they began working together a year ago: "It will take time for us to cultivate clients. It won't be just one meeting. We're going to have to do a little more," she recalls.
One of six children—and the only girl—she was born in Kingston, Jamaica, and grew up in Schweinfurt, Germany, where her father, Irish-Jamaican, was in the military. Her mother's mixed-race forebears had moved to Jamaica from Cuba.
Relocating to the U.S. to attend college, Graham-West earned a bachelor's in finance at Kansas State University in 1985 and four years later, an MBA in finance at Long Island University. A yen "to explore," as she calls it, led to working in finance, IT, marketing and advertising at several big corporations, including Clairol and Seagram's in New York City.
In 1994, her career took a sharp turn, when, after completing a Ph.D. in education at Kansas State, she opted to join the faculty as an assistant professor. At KSU, she taught international business and consumer behavior.
But four years later, university life had become boring; she deeply missed the dynamic world of business.
"I found myself envying my students who were getting hired by brokerage firms," Graham-West says. That was when she decided to go the FA route too.
"Being a financial advisor involves a lot of teaching, and that was very natural to me," she says.
At the moment, she is relishing the break after her spouse's grueling, failed re-election campaign. Should he seek political office again, he won't change his direct, candid approach; but his wife plans to change hers:
"I would be a little bit more direct. I'm probably not ever going to be as moderate as I've been in the past. I think that as a rule," Graham-West says, "people take advantage of that."

Red Sox - 000 100 010 - 2 7 0Lester (5-9-4-3-5, 107) was off from the start, facing eight batters in the first inning (three singles, two walks) and five more in the second, throwing 58 pitches in the two innings. He ended up going through the order three times in his five innings.
Twins - 210 100 10x - 5 12 0
A day after Clay Buchholz allowed the leadoff batter to reach base in all five of his innings, Lester put the first hitter on base in three of his five innings; all three scored.
Back-to-back doubles by Kevin Youkilis and David Ortiz (off Pavano (6-4-1-1-4, 95)) gave Boston a run in the fourth. Flo's hit was to deep left and it was a fly that Delmon Young got twisted around on and tried to catch with his back to the infield; the ball hit off the heel of his glove.
The other run scored when Jeremy Hermida doubled, took third on Marco Scutaro's single, and scored on Dustin Pedroia's sacrifice fly to right.
Ortiz continued to look very bad at the plate, striking out twice and fouling out in his three other trips to the plate. Don and Jerry said earlier in the game that it sounds like Tito is already thinking about benching him -- and the fact that Ellsbury sat this one out was the only reason he was in there today.
The Red Sox will help the Twins christen their new outdoor ball park this afternoon. Amalie Benjamin has some photos from the press box.
Lester was meh (5-5-4-3-4, 94) against the MFY last week, while Pavano had a 7-6-1-0-6, 102 line against the Angels. As expected, Jacoby Ellsbury has the day off.

The franchise that has won a mere three playoff series since Larry Bird retired in 1992 has suddenly become a major player in the NBA once again.
This is usually the time of year when the NBA gets around to releasing the schedule for the upcoming season.
Safe to say, there are now going to be some last-minute changes that have to be made.
Those Thursday night games on TNT cable and those Sunday matinees on ABC have a new attraction that must be included.
The Boston Celtics are going to be welcomed back to prime time in the 2007-08 season, thanks to the pending acquisition of Kevin Garnett.
The franchise that has won a mere three playoff series since Larry Bird retired in 1992 has suddenly become a major player in the NBA once again.
The Celtics had to mortgage their future and are going to be paying outrageous money for an All-Star nucleus of Garnett, Paul Pierce and Ray Allen, but the opportunity is one that couldn't have been passed up.
The chance to acquire one of the 10 best players in the NBA and add him to a team that includes the likes of Pierce and Allen does not come around very often.
The youth movement has officially been scrapped, and the Celtics' ownership group and executive director of basketball operations Danny Ainge have gone ''all in'' by dealing for Allen and Garnett in the last 4½ weeks.
Greg Oden and Kevin Durant, players the Celtics hoped to get via the lottery, are distant memories.
Al Jefferson, Gerald Green, Sebastian Telfair, Theo Ratliff, possibly Ryan Gomes and two first-round draft picks are a hefty price to pay for Garnett. Jefferson is going to be playing the game at a high level for years to come.
The potential reward, though, makes it worth the risk of giving up on a potential future All-Star in Jefferson and Green, who has some promise.
Final details of the blockbuster trade were being worked out, and once issues with Garnett's contract are taken care of, he will be changing teams for the first time.
Except for a surprising run to the 2002 Eastern Conference finals, the Celtics have been mostly stumbling around since the end of the glorious Bird-Kevin McHale-Robert Parish era.
They have tried all sorts of ways to get back into the picture - losing games in a bid to land Tim Duncan, handing over the franchise to Rick Pitino and going with youth the past couple of years.
Nothing has really worked, and now the Celtics have made a bold move by securing the services of Garnett, who is bound for the Hall of Fame and still has several good seasons left.
Somewhere in southern California, Pierce is wearing a wide smile today.
He has gone from the leader of a team that five weeks ago was young and lacking experience to one of three All-Stars on a team that will be a favorite to reach the NBA Finals.
What Ainge did on draft night - getting rid of the No. 5 pick, Delonte West and Wally Szczerbiak for Allen - makes all the sense in the world now.
A team with just Pierce and Allen would have put the Celtics in the lower tier of the Eastern Conference playoff picture, but the latest move changes that.
A trio of Garnett, who turned 31 in May after averaging 22.4 points, 12.8 rebounds and 4.1 assists, Pierce, who will be 30 in October, and Allen, who celebrated his 32nd birthday on July 20, makes the Celtics a serious threat in the weak East.
The conference was represented by LeBron James and his friends on the Cleveland Cavaliers in the NBA Finals last month, so it will definitely be up for grabs in '07-08.
The Chicago Bulls are going to be contenders along with the Miami Heat (as long as they have Dwyane Wade and Shaquille O'Neal) and the Detroit Pistons.
But no team in the conference can match the Garnett-Pierce-Allen threesome as the Celtics have quality scorers and have added a defensive presence that was lacking.
The price tag will be about $58 million next season for those three players alone, and there is little money to spend on the rest of the roster. Garnett will probably get an extension in excess of $100 million, keeping him under contract through the 2012-13 season.
But the Celtics have bought themselves relevancy in a city where they were a distant third behind the Red Sox and Patriots.
They have also bought themselves a chance to win the Eastern Conference in the next few seasons, which would put them a step away from winning a title for the first time since 1986.
The TD Banknorth Garden is sure to be filled to capacity and the interest level in the Celtics is sure to be high from the time they open training camp in October until the spring.
Garnett has been criticized for failing to deliver the Timberwolves a championship, but his supporting cast has hardly been spectacular.
Minnesota's best season with Garnett came when he had Sam Cassell and Latrell Sprewell easing his burden, and the Timberwolves got to the Western Conference finals in 2004.
Having Pierce and Allen alongside is a huge upgrade from that cast, and Garnett has something in common with his two new All-Star teammates.
All three are in their best positions to win big in the NBA, making them three hungry veterans on the same mission.
The start of the season is three months away, but the anticipation is already building for a team that is finally ready for prime time.

Load Impact has unveiled a plug-in for TeamCity by JetBrains that allows developers to run performance tests. TeamCity is a Java-based build management and continuous integration server designed to run automated tests.
According to JetBrains, TeamCity is an all-in-one, preintegrated, multi-source, load-testing solution whether you develop in Java, .NET, or for mobile platforms.
So all together, this offering represents advanced scripting and a GUI-based session recorder (to create tests simulating multiple typical users) and, also here, we see Load Impact's Server Metrics Agent (SMA) for correlating the server side impact of testing with CPU, memory, disk space, and network usage.
According to Load Impact founder Ragnar Lönn, "Using our plug-in for TeamCity makes it easy to add regular, automated load tests to their nightly test suites, and as a result, get continuous feedback on how their evolving code base is performing."
Lönn also says that any performance degradation, or improvement, is detected immediately when the code that causes it is checked in, which means developers always know if their recent changes were good or bad for performance.
The release of this plug-in comes at the same time as news of Load Impact's cloud-based service hitting over a million global developer performance tests by website, app, and API-focused programmers.
