The Slot Choice is meant to be a play that lets the Slot WR get open, no matter what the defense does. The Choice route will either get to its mark and turn around for a stop in place, or it will jet out to the outside, or cut in to the inside.
If the defender is playing inside, then the WR should jet to the outside. If the defender is playing outside, then the WR should jet to the inside. If the defense is playing in a zone, and is giving the WR some space, then the WR should just settle down and wait for the ball.
The Quarterback needs to have great chemistry with the WR so that they are on the same wavelength and can be expecting each other to make the same read.

Welcome to Downtown Honolulu
Downtown Honolulu is the historic, economic, governmental, and central part of Honolulu. It can be subdivided into four neighborhoods – the Capitol District, the Central Business District, Chinatown and the Waterfront. Located within the State Capitol District are federal, state, and city governmental buildings most notably the Hawaii State Capitol, Honolulu Hale (city hall), and Iolani Palace. The State Capitol Building opened in 1969 and is considered a unique work of architecture. The cone-shaped chambers represent Hawaii's volcanoes while the building columns are reminiscent of palm trees.
Iolani Palace is the only royal palace on American soil. It had served as the royal residence for Hawaii's last two monarchs, King Kalakaua and Queen Liliuokalani. Today, guided tours are available at Iolani Palace. Across the street from Iolani Palace is the King Kamehameha Statute, which fronts Honolulu's old judicial building. The statue pays tribute to Hawaii's warrior king and stands eight feet six inches high. Every June 11 on Kamehameha Day, which is a state holiday, the statue is adorned with beautiful floral leis, some as long as 18 feet in length.
Living in Downtown Honolulu
The Central Business District is where you will find the headquarters of many Hawaii-based companies and skyscrapers such as the Alexander & Baldwin Building, First Hawaiian Center, Hawaiian Electric Building and Hawaiian Telcom Building. You will also find the YWCA and Hawaii Pacific University here.
Located between Nuuanu Stream and Nuuanu Avenue, Chinatown is filled with ethnic eateries, lei stands, fresh produce vendors, herbal shops and more. A small section on Nuuanu Avenue has become an Arts District and is home to cultural institutions, performing arts venues such as the historic Hawaii Theatre, galleries and arts events.
The focal point of the waterfront area Aloha Tower Marketplace, the only place in the country that combines a visitor attraction (Aloha Tower), shops, restaurants, and a working commercial harbor facility. Aloha Tower was once the tallest building in Hawaii when it was erected in 1926 to welcome passenger ships arriving at Honolulu Harbor. Architects designed the Marketplace to complement its location at Honolulu Harbor, even going as far as selecting a special shade of green for the roof tiles to blend in with the waterfront.
Honolulu is the only city in the United States that is home to a royal palace.
More than 100 beaches surround Honolulu, more than almost any other city in the world.
Honolulu's home island, Oahu, is part of the largest mountain range in the world – most of which is under water.
Honolulu has one of the largest concentrations of Buddhist temples in the Western world, with over 30 spread through the city.

In memory of late Danish Prince Henrik who died on February 13, a piano recital was performed by American pianist Alan Gampel for the benefit of Issia Association at Cayrou Castle (Château du Cayrou) in Puy-l'Évêque town in the South of France. The concert was organized by the sister of Prince Henrik, Catherine de Montpezat. Queen Margrethe II of Denmark attended the concert. ISSIA (d'Issia Pourquoi Pas)Association aims to help young Africans, especially young disabled individuals from the Ivory Coast and Burkina Faso with socio-economic education workshops.
Lovely! Daisy has always been one of my favorite royals. I am sure this event was bittersweet but for a very worthy cause in Prince Henrik memory.

Q: How to serialize and save an object to database as Xml using Linq to SQL I were using  FileStream to Serialize an Object to Xml and Save to the disk
Stream str = new FileStream(@"serializedstate.xml", FileMode.OpenOrCreate)
XmlSerializer x = new XmlSerializer(typeof(GridState));
x.Serialize(str, new GridState
        {
            GridName= txtGridName.Text,
            GridColumns = GetGridColumnStates()
        });

This works fine and Xml file is generated on disk. How do I save serialized Object as Xml into a Sql Server 2008 database's XML column using Linq to SQL? And how to deserialize the same from database?

A: To serialize into an XElement
        XmlSerializer x = new XmlSerializer(typeof(GridState));
        XDocument doc = new XDocument();

        using (XmlWriter xw = doc.CreateWriter())
        {
            x.Serialize(xw, new GridState
                {
                    GridName= txtGridName.Text,
                    GridColumns = GetGridColumnStates()
                });
            xw.Close();
        }

        XElement el = doc.Root;

To deserialize
        using (XmlReader xr = el.CreateReader())
        {
            GridState myDeserializedObject = x.Deserialize(xr) as GridState;
            xr.Close();
        }

A: In sql you must have colum type XML and in linq the type of Colum must be XElement than you can manipulate throw Linq.

In the code behind I load or unload my User Controls whenever one of the checkboxes changes its Checked value. This works just like it should, but when I press any button in one of the controls all of them disappear. Do I have to keep them in the cache or are there any other things to attend?
Here is a part of my code. I hope it makes clear what I'm doing.

A: I do believe your problem resides on the fact that unfortunately you need to reload your dynamic controls on each and every postback.
One solution is to keep a in-session list of 'loaded' controls, and recreate them at Page_Init.

Little did he know how much the hugs would mean on during one visit in particular.
The officer in charge of his advisor team told him an Afghan soldier was looking for him. Maculewicz stopped what he was doing. He took a few steps and stopped in his tracks when he saw the soldier.
"I couldn't believe it," he said as he stared at Staff Sgt. Abdul Malik. The two didn't say a word or shake hands. They just hugged for a while.
Two weeks before, Maculewicz performed life-saving steps on Malik and called in an air evacuation during Operation Aoqad Se Hasht -- 38 Eagle -- in Sangin. The operation was an Afghan-led response to a Taliban attack on Afghan uniformed and local police patrol bases.
During the first week of the operation, which saw some of the heaviest fighting, Malik and another Afghan medic were recovering a fallen soldier. Malik loaded the soldier into an ambulance and was about to open the driver's door when a bullet punched through his back below his right kidney and exited from the right side of his abdomen.
Around the time Malik was responding to the casualty call, Maculewicz was at the casualty collection point at Patrol Base Tobaq, from which the Afghan medics were operating. Unaware of Malik's situation, he heard the call about a soldier killed in action. Minutes later, he heard another call come in about a soldier who was wounded.
"I initially thought there was some confusion in the communication, because I just had heard there was a KIA, so I thought it was just a wounded soldier," Maculewicz said. "Either way, I was getting ready for what was coming my way. I was making sure my [Afghan] medic was prepared as well, should we take a casualty."
Then the ambulance pulled up.
Maculewicz said his biggest fear was that if the time ever came to save someone's life, he would freeze. Compared to his previous duty station at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Md., where he worked in the traumatic brain injury ward, the lifesaving acts he performed on Malik "were night and day," he added.
At Walter Reed, the Washington Township, N.J., native worked in shifts and had set schedules. He had a routine -- and time to think things through. Now, Maculewicz is on his first combat deployment, and it is his first time serving with a Marine Corps unit. He also is the only corpsman on the advisor team, with no set schedule or routine. He learned that from Field Medical Training Battalion at Camp Johnson, N.C.
"When I was at FMTB, where you learn how to be a combat corpsman before joining a [Marine Corps] unit, they put you in situations like I was with Malik," he said. "But when you're in a training environment, the person still lives. It's just training. But the instructors always told us, 'Once you're in that moment, it will automatically click in your head.'"
Maculewicz said he helped to pull the wounded soldier out and didn't realize who it was. "I began working on him immediately," he said, looking for wounds to Malik's chest, arms, abdomen and leg.
"Each part of the body requires different treatments," he explained. "Even if it's a gunshot wound in the arm or the leg, each will require different measures."
Once Maculewicz located the injury, he began stabilizing Malik. He treated the Afghan medic's back and rolled him over to treat the exit wound. He asked the interpreter to reassure his patient that everything was going to be OK. Then he glanced at his face and realized who it was.
"The day before the operation began, I was training the medics about keeping a patient breathing should they have an open wound between their chest and hips," Maculewicz said. "Malik was my go-to medic, so I applied a chest seal on him [to demonstrate for the class]. Now, I was doing it to save his life."
Maculewicz couldn't tell if Malik had any internal damage, but he didn't want that to go unnoticed. He knew the wounded soldier would have to be evacuated by helicopter.
While treating Malik, Maculewicz reassured him everything would be fine, while relaying information to a Marine who was calling in the evacuation request.
"It was a lot of pressure that day," the Navy corpsman said, "because in addition to all I had to do to get Malik out of there, there were also more than 20 [Afghan] soldiers watching me."
The helicopter arrived shortly after Malik was stabilized. He was loaded up on the ambulance and driven to the landing zone, and Maculewicz said what he thought were the final goodbyes.
"I thought I wasn't going to see him after that," Maculewicz said. "I mean, I was confident he was going to be fine, but I just didn't think he would be back at the unit."
Malik didn't remember much from the time he was shot to the time he arrived at the patrol base, but he did remember watching Maculewicz working on him -- and knowing he would be fine because "Doc is a great teacher." He spent two days at the Camp Bastion Role 3 hospital and a week at Camp Shorabak's clinic.
While recovering, Malik awaits orders for convalescent leave to see his family and newborn son in the Afghan capital of Kabul -- but he wanted to see Maculewicz first. The two spent more than an hour catching up, talking about the injury and the fighting in Sangin.
"He saved my life," Malik said. "I can't repay him for what he did for me, but I am going to get back to my job and keep fighting the Taliban. I will be back and be there for my soldiers' medical needs, just like Doc was there for me."
Maculewicz said he was surprised to see Malik walking, talking and laughing "as if nothing happened."
Malik said he plans to spend his leave telling his friends and family about his experience, but "most importantly, I am going to tell everyone about my friend, Doc, who is the reason why I'm here today.
"It is my hope the people I tell spread the word about the Americans and their good intentions in Afghanistan," he continued. "We call our fallen soldiers heroes, but Doc is my hero, too."
Every time Maculewicz conducted training, he said, Malik always volunteered first.
"He took the training to heart, and he was an example to his medics," he said. "We have become close during this deployment."
Maculewicz said seeing Malik wounded hit him hard, "because it would have been like treating a Marine I've known on this deployment."
The corpsman said he's no hero -- he merely did what he signed up to do.
"My mom tells me she's going to slap me upside the head, because she keeps telling me I'm too modest," Maculewicz said with a laugh. "I guess I know what's coming when I come home."

Beetle of Burden
By Carl ZimmerJan 18, 1996 6:00 PM
Ounce for ounce, rhinoceros beetles are the world's strongest animals. But just how strong are they? And what makes them so powerful? Inspiration can come from the strangest places. While perusing the Guinness Book of World Records, Rodger Kram saw a startling entry. They claim that the world's strongest animal is the rhinoceros beetle, and that it can support 850 times its own body weight, he says. Kram, a physiologist at the University of California at Berkeley, decided to test that claim in his lab. Kram didn't simply stack weights on beetles' backs, since a little tilt would unbalance the load. Instead he created a yoke. He glued a patch of Velcro on each beetle's back and attached to it a thin lead strip that extended over the beetle's head and beyond its rear. On the ends he glued lead weights he had bought from a hobby shop (they're normally used to give model trains traction). When Kram put the rhinoceros beetles on a treadmill, he discovered that while they were not as strong as the Guinness Book claimed, they were still amazing. They could carry up to 100 times their own weight of one-tenth of an ounce, although under that load they could barely move. With 40 times their own weight, they plodded for about ten minutes before becoming exhausted. But with 30 times their own weight, things changed: after half an hour of walking, they still showed no sign of fatigue. I got bored before they got tired, says Kram. The beetles' feat is comparable to a 150-pound man walking a mile with a Cadillac on his head without tiring. To a physiologist like Kram, what was particularly mysterious was what fueled the beetles. In humans and ponies and dogs, he explains, if you have them carry a weight equal to 10 percent of their body weight, their metabolic rate goes up by 10 percent: 10, 10; 20, 20; and so on in a proportional increase. For the rhinoceros beetles to follow this rule carrying 30 times their weight, though, they would have to speed up their metabolism by a factor of 30--something only a few creatures on Earth, such as bumblebees, can do. Kram didn't expect ground-dwelling beetles to have a metabolism that could burn at such a high, sustained rate. But he also didn't expect what he found when he sealed his treadmill in a test chamber and measured how much oxygen the beetles consumed, and thus how many calories they burned. While carrying 30 times their weight, the beetles consume only four times more oxygen than when walking unencumbered--an astonishing display of biomechanical efficiency. If these beetles carry 50 percent of their own weight, it's absolutely trivial, says Kram. They hardly notice it at all. Rhinoceros beetles don't actually carry heavy loads on their backs in nature, but they do engage in strenuous tasks, such as plowing through forest litter to find food and locking horns with rivals. Kram has yet to figure out their secret. The mechanical tricks of other animals don't apply. Hermit crabs, for example, can carry their heavy shells by dragging their abdomens; with the seafloor supporting most of the load, the crabs just have to move it forward. But rhinoceros beetles keep their bellies high. People practiced at carrying heavy loads on their heads conserve energy by turning some of the energy of their forward movement into the rise and fall of their stride. The beetles, on the other hand, walk too slowly to do anything of the sort. When carrying a load, they don't change their walking style at all. Kram plans to explore their skeleton and muscles to get to the bottom of this mystery. Like all insects, the beetles have a stiff exoskeleton, and it's possible that it is so exceptionally strong that it can bear the beetle's load without requiring much work from the muscles. But Kram suspects he'll find the solution in the muscles--and he sees the beetles' slowness as a clue. Muscles that contract and relax slowly, he says, can be powerful and metabolically efficient at the same time; the ones that clams use to keep their shells shut tight are an example. Rhino beetles may have muscles like that. Uncovering their full story could be a great help to researchers trying to build many-legged robots for tasks like mining the moon. After all, a robot with legs of hollow steel is essentially a mechanical beetle. The people who make robots haven't been too concerned with energy consumption. They just plug the robot in, and there's a nuclear reactor at the other end, and they have plenty of power, says Kram. But when we really start to make a practical, autonomous, payload-carrying robot, energy conservation will become much more important.

Dhoni's new history in IPL
Chennai Super Kings captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni made history by playing in the 37th match of the IPL at the Sheikh Abu Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi on Monday night.
Dhoni holds the record for most 200 matches played in an IPL career against Rajasthan Royals. No other player has that record in the IPL.
However, Mumbai captain Rohit Sharma is breathing down Dhoni's neck. Rohit played his 197th match against Punjab on Sunday night. Suresh Raina is in third place on this list. He has played 193 IPL matches. However, he will be far behind in the race to play the highest match as he rushed to India before the start of this IPL.
Bangalore skipper Virat Kohli is in the fifth position in the list of highest matches played in the IPL. He has played 186 matches so far.
So far, Dhoni has scored 4568 runs in 199 matches in the IPL. There are 306 boundaries and 215 sixes. Dhoni's highest run in the tournament is 84 unbeaten.

MechSE's Machine Shop staff created this lens holder to ensure safe transport of a massive lens being taken to the South Pole for an Illinois astronomy professor's telescope. From left: Gary Sedberry, Jeff Smith, Dave Williams, Kyle Cheek, Damon McFall, and Cliff Gulyash.
It takes a lot of moving parts to make a lot of moving parts.
In the MechSE Machine Shop, five staff members specialize in making parts for professors and graduate and undergraduate students, along with the occasional loyal alumnus working in private industry.
Everything they create in their job shop on the first floor of the Mechanical Engineering Laboratory is original and custom-made.
The shop staff rises to each challenge of providing whatever a client needs, and they meet those challenges thanks to years of combined experience.
Cliff Gulyash, shop supervisor, uses his extensive shop and fabrication experience to lead the team. He consults with the customers about their designs, looking for ways to improve them and reduce costs and machining time.
Damon said Cliff's personality helps him in this role, as he is known for being friendly and flexible.
When Cliff is out, Kyle Cheek steps in to take his place. Kyle used to run an assembly line, which has helped him increase efficiency in the shop. Damon said that, with Kyle's help, the shop was able to cut production time on one product from six hours down to just one hour.
All of the guys in the machine shop have previous experience in the private sector. Gary Sedberry brings with him 29 years of experience in the machine field.
Gary used to be a supervisor at Harlan and Lash, and he has utilized that experience to teach students what they might not learn in class.
Gary's previous jobs also give him diversified experience working on the majority of the 40+ machines in the shop. He and the others have been training one another on the different tools so that they can all run each one and have a full understanding of the shop's capabilities.
Jeff Smith's background in private industry also brings a special set of skills to the team. Jeff worked with Electrolux and The Eureka Co. before coming to the machine shop. He helped develop and make the machines, but also gained experience in sales, marketing, and industrial design.
The team is rounded out by Dave Williams, who led teams of up to 50 machinists during his time in industry. Dave now works in both the machine shop and the College of Engineering's Engineering Student Projects Lab. In each of these roles, he tries to create a positive and memorable learning experience.
Damon said that this commitment to education is shared among all of the machine shop staff. They are not simply making parts to assist with research but are creating better engineers by teaching clients which part they really need and why.
The team's attitude when it comes to education and working with clients highlights how well they work together, Damon said. Although their workday does not begin until 8 a.m., most of the group arrive early, discussing projects and having a cup of coffee.

Q: Share On LinkedIn Description field not displayed in new UI Posts made via the Share on LinkedIn API for users on the new user interface appear on their accounts with at most: a user message/comment, image, title, and link domain.  However, the documentation on the Share on LinkedIn API (https://developer.linkedin.com/docs/share-on-linkedin) describes that the request body can also contain a "description" field with text up to 256 characters.  When the description and all the post fields are provided explicitly to the API (as in the example in the documentation), the description field does not appear for users on the new UI.  The description field did appear for users when they were on the old UI.
The Share on LinkedIn API provides an additional option for sharing by omitting the post details fields (title, image, description), and allowing LinkedIn to generate the post based on the Open Graph data it finds at the link URL.  However, the result is the same as above for users on the new UI.
Is this a bug, or is the documentation out-of-date?

A: These are your only options.  Choose one:

*

*Share image.

*Share description.

If you try to share both, you will only see an image.
I argued with LinkedIn support about this for two weeks  I've also directly contacted many of the developers.  They have agreed that this is the logic and this is how it is designed to work.  I tested this theory out on Wikipedia (has a description, no image) and GitHub (has both description and image).  Results:

Wikipedia: Description ONLY -- Works (but no image)!
GitHub: Image ONLY -- Works (but no description)!
I made test site, with only description, to verify this, and it appears confirmed.
Sure, the Official Microsoft LinkedIn Share Documentation makes no mention whatsoever of this, but once again, reality is in direct conflict with Microsoft's understanding.

Deal saves Zahra's stepmum from death
4th December 2010 sandrea General 0
THE US stepmother of Zahra Baker struck a deal that saved her from execution or a life sentence, US agencies reported today.
The deal, which has left local residents outraged, covers her conviction of an offence related to the 10-year-old Australian girl's death.
North Carolina prosecutors agreed to the deal with Elisa Baker in return for her help with the murder investigation.
Soon after the deal was made, Zahra's dismembered remains and prosthetic leg were found by search teams in various bush locations outside the town of Hickory, where Zahra lived with her biological father, Adam Baker, and stepmother Elisa Baker.
The 10-year-old was born in Wagga Wagga but moved to the US with her father.
It is believed Elisa Baker led police to Zahra's remains and prosthetic leg.
Zahra was reported missing on October 9 and Elisa Baker was arrested a day later. She has been held in a North Carolina jail since, on an obstruction of justice charge related to a fake ransom note and charges unrelated to Zahra's disappearance.
Hickory police have not charged anyone in connection with Zahra's death, but have not ruled out Elisa Baker and Adam Baker as suspects.
Under the deal, reported by North Carolina TV station WSOC, prosecutors agreed not to charge Elisa with first-degree murder, meaning that if she's convicted, she would not face the death penalty or life in prison without parole.
Outraged locals point to the horrific life Zahra, who had her leg amputated following bone cancer, was forced to endure.
"This child suffered from cancer. I don't think that a second-degree murder charge is justice," Sherrie Rowell-Monnell, who visited a memorial dedicated to Zahra, told the Hickory Record newspaper.
"This child's body was dismembered and put in awful places. I think if I had a decision, it would be first-degree murder and the death penalty."

How can an avatar define a businesses marketing?
Creating an avatar is a great way to identify with your target audience and get to know what they want. Once you have your avatar, you will have an idea of what they like, what they don't like and the places they frequent, both online and offline. For example, a Generation Y avatar can be reached via social platforms like Instagram and Tumblr, while a businessman in Chicago may be more likely to read his local financial times. Your marketing should reach out to your avatar at the locations they frequent, both on and offline. It should also reflect their interests, desires and tastes through use of colour, images and text.

Q: web client call server, server call 3rd party, all async? I have a website that is that is architected using an n-layer approach.  The problem I have is that I need the client to make a call to the application layer, one of the other layers will then make a call to another web service somewhere in the world.  The other web service could take some time to come back so what I would like to do, if possible, something along the lines of the following using async requests:

The client is HTML & JavaScript, the server layers are written in C# (.NET 4.5), the 3rd party web services are just web services I need to consume
How would you go about writing this?
Any help will be much appreciated

A: It doesn't look like the server-side code needs to call the external service asynchronously.  I'm not seeing an advantage in doing that.
The client-side code would call the server-side code asynchronously, of course.  (An AJAX request, using jQuery for example.)  And it would await the response form that service in an asynchronous manner before handling that response.  But since the server-side code in this request is only serving that one request, it can do so synchronously.
Indeed, if the server-side code were itself also asynchronous then it would return control to the client-side code immediately before it has anything useful to give it.  Which means the client-side asynchronous handler can't do anything.  Instead, when the server-side code gets a response from the external service, it would need to push that response to the client-side code.  Which is possible with websockets and whatnot, but probably a lot more complex than this situation requires.
Only the first link in the chain needs to be asynchronous in order to provide the user experience of asynchronicity, the rest of the system doesn't need to be.

A: Whenever you have a "client/server" boundary, you have the option of making the server asynchronous as well as the option of making the client asynchronous. Those decisions are independent.
I'll make the assumption that your third-party webservice is scalable, or that your server has other things to do besides just this one request. In that case, I'd recommend that your server be asynchronous.
Asynchronous programming is natural with async/await in ASP.NET 4.5. Depending on your third-party service, you may want to use HttpClient or the async-compatible WCF or webservice proxies. Both ASP.NET MVC and WebAPI support asynchronous calls for your service.
On the client side, you have no choice; JavaScript in the browser must be asynchronous.

Well, it's officially frigid here and all I want to make for dinner is soup. Luckily, Cook the Book Fridays picked Dorie's Potato Chowder Lots of Ways for the recipe of the month. I like the "lots of ways" bit because it pretty much tells me I'll have room to improvise, which I usually do anyway but having permission is a refreshing change. Hahaha. I actually didn't really veer too far off base here, just a few tweaks and some flavoring and topping customization. This is really a potato and onion chowder, using just about every allium you can think of: yellow onions, leeks, shallots and garlic. Any not on this list can be added as a topping. I first pre-crisped some turkey bacon bits in my Dutch oven and set them aside for garnish. As the alliums cooked down all soft and sweet, I seasoned them with Old Bay. My dad used to have a boat on the Chesapeake, so I love that stuff. I never peel potatoes if I don't have to, and didn't see a reason to here, so I left the skins on mine.
I don't always love how I feel after eating soup with a cream base, so I skipped the cream here and instead stole a couple of ladlefuls of soup out of my pot (the liquid with some potatoes and onions) and whizzed it really smooth in my blender. I stirred that back into the soup to give the base a thicker, velvety texture and then added about 1/4 cup of 2% milk just to give it a slightly lighter, more chowdery, color. Because I'd been restrained with the dairy in the soup, I felt no guilt when adding a blop of crème fraîche as a topping. Also on top of the "my way" chowder, I sprinkled those bacon bits, some sliced scallion and some tiny potatoes that I crisped up in olive oil, crouton-style. Delicious. I will definitely try this chowder other ways as the season goes on.
For the recipe, see Everyday Dorie by Dorie Greenspan, and head over to Cook the Book Fridays to see how the group liked this one.
That is a delicious looking soup, and wasn't it good? I am anxious to try the other versions of Dorie"s chowder.
It is always nice to have the "permission" to play around. 😉 I like the idea of whizzing some of the soup in the blender and adding it back in for the texture. You photo is lovely as always!
Your soup looks delicious! Pureeing some of the soup is a great idea!
I love your addition of the tiny crqispy potatoes as part of your garnish, such a pretty bowl of chowder you have there!
That soup is GORGEOUS! Love how creamy it looks even with not too much milk in there! I also loved that we were basically given carte blanche to make it however we please!
Your soup is so beautiful! I also thought about taking some of the soup out and blitzing it but I was too lazy haha! I will do this next time though – love the creaminess of yours!
Your improvisations make a lot of sense to me. More than that, I can feel the love you put into the chowder. Well done!
Lots of good ideas and your soup looks delicious!
Liked your crispy potato slices on top as well as your substituting soup liquid and milk whipped together to make it more "chowdery." Liked that Dorie just gave us a basic recipe of potatoes and alliums and then left us to go wild. We all seemed to have our take on this chowder and yours looks especially tasty.

Mélo est un film français en noir et blanc de Paul Czinner sorti en 1932. Le scénario est inspiré de la pièce de théâtre éponyme d'Henri Bernstein, Mélo.

Synopsis
L'histoire commence au moment d'un concert au cours duquel est donné le concerto en ré majeur de Beethoven pour violon et orchestre. Romaine, femme mystérieuse, est dans la salle de concert. Pierre, son mari, est premier violon de l'Orchestre Colonne. Ce soir-là, elle découvre Marcel, brillant soliste du concerto, et en tombe amoureuse. Pierre et Marcel sont amis, ce qui complique la situation. Pierre invite son ami à la maison, sans se douter de ce qui va se passer. La jeune femme, cherchant à  trouver un habile prétexte pour un rendez-vous en tête-à-tête, révèle rapidement ses sentiments à Marcel. Ce dernier est sensible au charme de Romaine, mais ne souhaite pas trahir Pierre. Elle joue du  piano, et tout serait presque simple si elle n'avait pas choisi d'aimer deux hommes – à l'amitié solide - en même temps.

Le réalisateur Paul Czinner, qui jouait du violon, s'est amusé à mettre en jeu deux personnages incarnant des rôles de violonistes.

Birgisch ist ein Ort der Gemeinde Naters im Bezirk Brig im deutschsprachigen Teil des Kantons Wallis in der Schweiz.

Bis zur Fusion zusammen mit der Gemeinde Mund zur Gemeinde Naters am 1. Januar 2013 war Birgisch eine selbständige politische Gemeinde.

Geschichte
Birgisch wurde 1232 erstmals als Burginse erwähnt (ein Chono de Burginse). Die Hangsiedlung über dem rechten Rhoneufer umfasst zahlreiche Weiler. Auf dem sogenannten Kocherbiel bei der Kapelle befinden sich Überreste einer mittelalterlichen Burg. Birgisch teilte die politischen Geschicke des Zenden Brig. Kirchlich gehört Birgisch bis heute zu Naters. Eine Kapelle (Patrozinium Johannes der Täufer), 1379 im Besitz der Johanniter und mit einer Einsiedelei verbunden, wurde 1687 umgebaut, 1905 neu errichtet (Kruzifix aus dem 14. Jahrhundert, Barockaltar, verschiedene Reliquien aus dem 18. Jahrhundert). Bis zu Beginn des 19. Jahrhunderts bestanden die zwei Gemeinden Ober- und Unterbirgisch (1320 als Gemeinde erwähnt) mit gemeinsamen Allmenden und Alpen.

Sue Monk and Lachlan Hurse from Jumping Fences organised Foco Nuevo during 2008 where they presented a mix of musical styles that extends the folk tradition.
This regular music event was held on the last Friday of each month and featured a diversity of guest singer-songwriters and musicians.
Notices about upcoming 'Foco Nuevo' are posted on WBT regularly with recordings, images and videos.
This feature on Foco Nuevo is a tribute really, a tribute to two political musos, Sue Monk and Lachlan Hurse, consistent in their art and politics over a period of more than 20 years.
Their band Jumping Fences has included many fine musicians over the years. At Foco Nuevo these included: Ross Gwyther on sax and clarinet (to me he plays like Akker Bilk), James Harper on percussion, and Dan Simpson on drums. They are often accompanied beuatifully on vocals by Leonor Orellana. They have been accompanied also by Rob ' Santana' Stewart on lead guitar. Rob is from 'Little Secrets'.
Sue and Lachlan put Foco Nuevo together and with the help of local musicians and dedicated helpers like Maggie, Allea, Manal, Kate and Mara made it a success.
The audiences in 2008 were a good appreciative crowd that contributed to its independence and appeal.
Click on the images below to listen to the artist/band that played in 2008.
Great food, great cook, Maggie!
Combined Unions Choir – Solidarity Forever!
Lets hope the same fate that befell FOCO is not true of Foco Nuevo!

An extract from the Hainanese Chicken Chronicles by Lachlan Hurse (from Jumping Fences).
Just after reporting on the death of the great South African singer, Miriam Makeba, I have been further saddened by the news of the death of another great musical figure of the 20th century.
I have just read a report that Odetta, the deep-voiced folk singer whose ballads and songs became for many a sound track to the American civil rights movement, died on Tuesday at the age of 77 from a heart attack.
Odetta performed in Brisbane att Mayne Hall at the University of Queensland during the 1980s.
Odetta Holmes, born in Birmingham, Alabama, on December 31, 1930, told the Times in a 2007 interview the music of the Great Depression, particularly the prison songs and work songs from the fields of the deep South, helped shape her musical life.
While she recorded several albums and sang at New York's Carnegie Hall among other prominent venues, Odetta is perhaps best remembered by most Americans for her brief performance at the August 1963 march on Washington, a pivotal event in the civil rights movement at which she sang the song 'O Freedom'.
Rosa Parks, the woman who launched the boycott of segregated buses in Montgomery, Alabama, was once asked which songs meant the most to her. "All the songs Odetta sings," was Ms Parks' reply.
Odetta, who moved from Alabama to Los Angeles with her mother in 1937, earned a music degree from Los Angeles City College.

FOCO history – Underground developments in the late 1960s among students and radical youth culminated in an exciting new 'youth club' venture conducted every Sunday night at the Trades Hall, named after the Foco revolutionary cells of Che Guevara and Regis Debray.
FOCO history – Calculated to bring together young students and workers at a regular cultural venue, brainchild of progressive elements in the union movement, acting in concert with the Eureka Youth League and student radicals.
FOCO burned like a brilliant comet on the Brisbane Sunday night sky-line for just over one year, before it was snuffed out.

EMC and IBM Extend Interoperability with Licensing Agreement for IBM System Z Storage Interfaces
Hopkinton, Mass. - Wednesday, August 1, 2007
Hopkinton, Mass. - August 01, 2007 -
EMC Corporation (NYSE: EMC) today announced the extension of a licensing agreement with IBM Corporation that will enable customers to continue to install and utilize EMC and IBM products in their heterogeneous IBM System z environments.
The multi-year agreement facilitates interoperability of EMC® Symmetrix® DMX storage systems with IBM Peer-to-Peer Remote Copy and Extended Remote Copy (XRC) functions. The licensing agreement also covers additional IBM interfaces, including FlashCopy, Multiple Allegiance, Parallel Access Volumes (PAV), Dynamic PAV, and HyperPAV, which will be supported on EMC Symmetrix systems.
As part of the agreement, IBM will provide EMC with technical specifications that will continue to enable compatibility between EMC Symmetrix DMX storage systems and IBM System z products running the current and future versions of the IBM OS/390 and z/OS operating systems. Financial terms are not being disclosed.
Angela Archon, Vice President Intellectual Property Licensing at IBM, said, "This extension of an existing agreement resulted from IBM's ongoing innovation for System z. For years, IBM has been delivering on open standards and giving customers choice. This extension agreement underscores IBM's commitment to open innovation and is consistent with our drive towards industry interoperability and giving clients the ultimate choice."
Chuck Hollis, EMC Vice President, Technology Alliances, added, "This extension of our relationship with IBM will assure the continuation of access to the benefits of EMC's information infrastructure solutions by IBM System z customers. Through efforts such as this, EMC is furthering its commitment to providing System z customers with industry leading storage systems, software and services."
In October 2003, EMC and IBM announced a licensing agreement that provided EMC with access to a range of storage interfaces and functionality for other IBM Systems lines and agreed to a mutual exchange of open-standards based interfaces for improved manageability and interoperability. In June 2005, the companies extended their cooperative support agreement, which facilitates mutual response to joint customer issues including, the IBM System i and all other IBM Systems lines.

New Video: K. Michelle - Half of It
Just last week we saw the release of K. Michelle's lead single V.S.O.P. from her forthcoming debut album "Rebellious Soul".
Today the songstress has dropped a new song and video for her fans to "Half of It", which is her version to the song originally by Rihanna.
K. Michelle sings about her ratchet behaviour she portrays on TV every week on VH1's Love and Hip Hop Atlanta. The star also sings about being a role model to teenagers and young women, as well as other things like not being able to handle her alcohol. K.Michelle sings from the soul in this new song. Her debut album "Rebellious Soul" drops on July 30 via Atlantic Records.
Labels: K Michelle, New Video, Reality TV Stars


thanks for the game - was definitely surprised when it popped up out of no where. Should play sometime.
yeah, I have a few parakeets and a Cockatiel.
Dear Bob, it entertains me that you are able to say that so literally.
The Series is just great. What do you think of Thief 4 which is in work?
You told in my "hello I'm new" that you may have time to play BF or L4D with me, well you can find my Skype and ICQ adress in my profile .
Microsoft is a soulless collection of villains.
Many players played the new Diablo for a while and then stopped. They where not having as much fun as they thought they could be having so they played something else. This is a valid reason to stop playing and there are two big reasons for this I'm going to highlight. But I also want to really get into legitimate failings of this game, despite my love for it.
I am so excited about The Elder Scrolls Online. SO. Excited.
It is to bad this game will fail.
I am not saying it wont enjoy some success. It will at first, but the constant fresh content needed will dry up. And the user base? It will be split between 3 systems that don't share members.
Gaming , The Cold Hard Truth.
What system is better is often a question about opinion. And any opinion you have is based on personal experiances, good solid reason for your preference. So if you love the xbox or playstation, thats fine. That means you have been having fun on those consoles. And having fun is what matters.

Following a series of scandals and injuries over the last decade, many had believed the 43-year-old would never win a major title again.
But as detailed in the video, Tiger's been on this path for a very long time.

As you may know, roses come in a variety of colors: from red, yellow, pink, black and even violet. The lilac or violet rose is an unknown flower for many people, which is why at Verdissimo we want to tell you all about it in this post: from its origin, to the meaning behind the lilac rose, to the perfect moment to give it as a gift.
The origin of lilac roses does not go back many centuries. This is one of the "new" available rose varieties. In reality, flowers in this color are a hybrid between Asian and European roses, which are two well-known rose varieties.
The meaning behind roses depends greatly on their color. The main meaning of lilac roses is life. This rose variety is associated with eternity and long life. Generally speaking, the meaning behind the lilac rose is considered positive and symbolizes not just life, but also happiness, quality of life and health.
As you can see, all the meanings behind roses in this color are nice and positive.
But, when should you give these flowers as gifts? In the next section of this post, we'll give you some ideas!
After overcoming an illness: giving a lilac rose or a bouquet of lilac roses is a perfect idea if one of your loved ones has suffered an illness or is in frail health.
For an anniversary: although red roses are typically given, since they symbolize passion, lilac roses are a good idea because they also mean happiness. So, they're a good way to tell your partner how happy you are together.
For the birth of a child: there's no better time to give lilac roses than at the birth of a child. This is because both babies and roses in this color symbolize life and fulfillment.
At Verdissimo, we have different preserved lilac roses available. Find out more about them!
Princess Rose: you can find it in lilac and purple.
Mini Rose: just like the Princess Rose, you can find it in lilac and purple.
Medium Rose: the Medium Rose is only available in lilac.
Standard Rose: this is another rose variety available in lilac and purple.
Extra Rose: at Verdissimo, you can find this variety in lilac.
Premium Rose: this is another rose we have in lilac and purple.
King Rose: this rose variety is only available in purple.


Smart Refrigerators: Are the Bells and Whistles Worth the Price Tag?
More and more of our technology is getting "smart" including phones, watches, even microwaves. But what about refrigerators?
Being "smart" is in style right now. You can buy anything from from smart phones to smart televisions, and now smart appliances. Technology is making everything faster and more responsive, but with refrigerators is it worth it? Let's look at a couple of brands of smart refrigerators and what they have to offer.
The Samsung Smart Refrigerator is currently selling for $4,000.
Samsung has jumped on the bandwagon of smart refrigerators. The Samsung smart four-door refrigerator has a 10-inch display over the water dispenser to show you the weather, your calendar, and notes from your family. This year at the 2013 International CES Samsung showed off a Smart Refrigerator that can offer recipe suggestions based on the contents of your fridge, using the Epicurious App. It also comes installed with Evernote to allow you to create notes, share web clips, photos, links, and videos. You can sync the fridge with any other device you have that runs Evernote. This smart refrigerator from Samsung is 32 cubic feet and has four compartments and sells around $4,000.
LG offers a smart refrigerator in a 30.7 cubic foot French-door style. The 8-inch display features Smart ThinQ technology with a touch screen to monitor expiration dates on your food, create grocery lists and lets you retrieve recipes on a compatible mobile phone. This LG smart refrigerator model sells for $3500.
The Whirlpool Smart Refrigerator is a little less, going for $2,000.
The Whirlpool smart side-by-side refrigerator is 27.3 cubic feet and has a neat feature that connects to the Internet decides how hard the refrigerator should work, based on energy prices. This will help to lower your electric bills over time. There is also a smartphone app you can download so that you check and control your refrigerator remotely. This one is in the typical range for a side by side at around $2,000.
The price difference between brands I believe is more due to the model difference (four-door, French door or side-by-side) than the smart systems. If you are looking for a new refrigerator and want to be up on the latest technology, a smart refrigerator could be for you. Since they have slightly different perks you might want to see which benefits appeal to you the most. If you are like me you might wait to update your refrigerator until some of the beginning craze of the technology has worn off and the kinks in the technology have been worked out, and the price has come down.
If you do decide to update your refrigerator and go with a Smart Refrigerator we invite you to come back to Viewpoints and write a review about it.

A lot has happened in the 18 months since Drake swore off the press after talking with Rolling Stone in February 2014. However, the rapper eased off his 'no interviews' stance in an extensive The Fader cover story, where the rapper chatted about his upcoming LP Views From the 6, his joint mixtape with Future What a Time to Be Alive and the Meek Mill beef that shook hip-hop for a few weeks this summer.
Unlike previous rap beefs, Meek Mill triggered this feud with a Twitter tirade, which Drake responded to with his diss track "Charged Up." He waited for Mill to respond with his own track, but it didn't immediately arrive.
By the time Meek Mill finally responded with his Drake-aimed "Wanna Know" and a brief live freestyle, it was too late. Drake spent a good portion of his OVO Fest roasting the rapper, and a return salvo from Mill never came. The feud has laid dormant since early August.

Linux only: Whenever you've installed a package using apt, Synaptic, or any other package management system, you've undoubtedly noticed that your package of choice's dependencies are installed simultaneously. The process is streamlined and very convenient. You've also probably noticed that whenever you remove a package, the package's dependencies get left behind — lost somewhere in the soul of your machine.
Similar to Mac application AppDelete, Synaptic Package Manager has built in functionality that allows you to locate and remove packages that have been left behind. The Ubuntu Forums has very detailed instructions on how to remove packages of this variety including: residual config packages, partial packages, unnecessary locale data, and orphaned packages. Although the tutorial is housed in the Ubuntu Forums, it will work in any Linux distro that uses Synaptic. Thanks, Nano!
Mac OS X only: Freeware program AppDelete is an uninstaller for Mac applications.
