The second part of an article/tutorial on using the YSlow firebug extension to optimize web site performance.
This article is a continuation of a previous article. If you haven't yet, read the previous article: Using YSlow to Optimize Web Site Performance.
In this post, I'll cover rules 5-13 and summarize the results of the optimizations that I made to my site.
A number of these rules are fairly simple, so I'll cover some together.
I'll be honest here. I didn't even know CSS had expressions until I saw this rule. YSlow recommends avoiding them because they are evaluated an absurd number of times.
External files can be cached indepently. If your users usually browse to more than one page on your site or you have frequent returning visitors, this should improve load times.
DNS lookups can still take a fair amount of time even on a broadband connection. Basically, try to keep the number of unique host names fairly low. There is one competing performance benefit to serving page components from multiple hosts. It turns out that most browsers will only make two simultaneous connections to a given host. So, serving content from multiple hosts can speed up page load times especially if there are a lot of components.
These two rules are fairly easy to follow. Sometimes you can't avoid redirects such as when you move to a new domain or restructure your site. Those sort of redirects are good and they maintain the reputation your site has built with search engines. That said, a lot of redirects can be eliminated simply by adding a trailing slash to a URL. Be especially mindful if you're working on hand-coded sites rather than CMS-based sites. Remove duplicate scripts is pretty obvious. Unfortunately, Google Adsense serves the same scripts for each ad on a page and there's no way to fix it.
I'm somewhat disappointed that after all of that, my score barely improved, moving from an F (59) to a D (63). Unfortunately, most of the remaining areas of optimization are either unrealistic as in Use a CDN or are out of my control.
Of particular note: in the case of a primed cache, I reduced the number of HTTP requests from 25 to 15.
Overall, I'm satisfied with the performance improvements. Even if the improvements are not amazing, working with YSlow is not particularly hard or time consuming. In fact, writing this article took much longer than the actual changes I made to my web site. A 15% reduction in load times is worth an hour or two of writing scripts and changing server configurations.
An article/tutorial on using the YSlow firebug extension to optimize web site performance.
I'm a big fan of Google Tech Talks. Recently, I caught a particularly interesting one from Steve Souders called Life's Too Short – Write Fast Code. Steve Souders used to work for Yahoo! as their chief web performance guru; he now does much the same at Google. The talk was a continuation of a previous lecture on a firebug extension that he wrote called YSlow. Suffice it to say, he knows what he's talking about when it comes to high performance web sites. Anyway, it piqued my interest, so I decided to try to improve the performance of my own site. This article/tutorial and the next chronicle the changes I made and the results that I obtained.
Clicking on any rule takes you to a page explaining it in more detail.
A quick note: the screenshot above was taken before I disabled Woopra, which is web analytics software similar to Google Analytics. I had tried it out a couple months ago and had simply forgotten that I had it enabled. Disabling Woopra improved my grades very slighty in a number of rules, but I don't include that optimization in the main article because it's technically a functional change to my site. As explained below, YSlow doesn't make functional recommendations.
What follows are the changes that I made to my site, rule-by-rule.
I also modified both plugins to no longer include a link to their original stylesheets in the <head> section of the page. Search the PHP files for references to the original stylesheets and comment those lines out.
Before moving on, it's worth mentioning that you should use CSS sprites if at all possible. Many sites use tens of icons per page. Combining those tiny icons into one sprite is a huge performance boost.
One persistent criticism of YSlow is that it focuses on performance improvements to major sites. I don't really agree with that; in fact, nearly every rule applies equally to both small and large sites. Use a CDN is the exception. A CDN allows you to serve content to users from geographically close servers. It's a decent performance improvement, but it's also incredibly expensive.
ExpiresByType image/gif "access plus 10 years"
ExpiresByType image/jpeg "access plus 10 years"
ExpiresByType image/png "access plus 10 years"
ExpiresByType text/css "access plus 10 years"
Warning: The preceding configuration means that any time you change an image or stylesheet served my Apache, you must rename it. If a browser or proxy server has the component cached, it will never check to see if its version is the same as the version on your server. For images, this is probably not an annoyance; changing an image usually means uploading a new version in which case it will have a different file name anyway. For stylesheets, this can be annoying if you don't automate the process.
The script reads a number in from serial.txt, increments it, creates a new stylesheet with the number appended, and in this case modifies WordPress' header.php to link to the new stylesheet. Every time I want a different style on my site, I modifiy style.css.original and run this script.
When I started writing this post, I didn't realize how long it was going to be. Part two, which will include the other 9 easier-to-implement and less important rules, should be up within a few days. I'll also include some before-and-after performance statistics.
Part two is now finished: Using YSlow to Optimize Web Site Performance Continued.


I am a Sri Lankan student and so much interested in collecting postage stamps from all over the world, as it's my favourite hobby. My father is also working at a newspaper company called "The Associated Newspapers of Ceylon Limited" here in Colombo.
Through him, I get Sri Lankan stamps and have a very good collection at present, but I don't have a single stamp from your beautiful country, Belize. I shall be very happy if someone could send me some stamps from your country, or introduce me to a stamp collecting friend in Belize so that I can make exchanges.

When Should An Agreement Be Dated
If a contract is dated by announcing their signatures instead of putting a date in the introductory clause (something I mention in this blog post), we see the effective date used to refer to the date on which all parties signed: if it is a Memorandum of Understanding or involves an international element, then the propst and the deputy director of the University should sign it. Once you have checked it first, legal services are acceptable. However, the return of documents can be illegal or even criminal. If a re-meeting of a document misleads a third party or gives a false impression of when a action was taken, it can be fraudulent. The intentions of the parties are also important in determining whether the retrodation is legal. Only one date should normally be in the document at the very beginning or immediately above where the signatories sign. There is no "clear line" tests for legal backdation. But here are some questions that the parties can check during the evaluation whether their retrodedation is legal: There are some interesting legal points that arise from the ability to have a valid date backdated. A document backdated to obtain a more favourable legal result is probably illegal. For example, if a document is signed in January but goes back to December to get some tax deduction, it is probably illegal and can be criminal. CONSIDERING, on July 15, 2018, the seller began selling supplies to the buyer as part of a verbal agreement based on the terms described in the proposal; and you negotiated an important deal, you reduced it to a written contract, and now you`re ready to sign on the polka dot line. Most people think that signing a contract is just a formality. However, it is important not to close the guard at this stage.
Whether you sign the contract correctly can mean the difference between a company in good business or a chaotic legal process. The effective date of the contract is designated as the effective date (or effective contract) that may differ from the date of execution. This date cannot be set before the execution date, i.e. a contract can only be in effect after all parties have signed it. By signing the contract, all parties declare that they agree on the effective date. This may seem like a base (and that`s it!), but you`d be surprised how often it goes into the hustle and bustle of progressing with business. Although you wouldn`t necessarily have to sign an agreement to make it valid, why would you want to take that opportunity? There is absolutely no better way to prove that a party intended to be bound by a contract, and then whipping it and indicating its signature on the document.

INDOCHINE Mining says it will vigorously defend its exploration licence for the Mt Kare project after it was hit with an injunction from landowners claiming it had not complied with licence conditions.
Indochine chairman Dermott McVeigh announced in the company's September quarterly report that landowner representative body Kare Puga Development Corporation had attempted to block its renewal of Exploration Licence (EL) 1093.
"According to legal advice received by the company, the summons is without merit and is being vigorously defended," Mr McVeigh said.
News of the injunction came only days after the company celebrated the signing of the land investigation report (LIR) at Mt Kare.
The company said the signing represented a "major milestone for the project in solving the complex and challenging landowner issues associated with Mt Kare for decades".
It followed the successful completion of a land investigation study in July 2014 – a key license condition for EL 1093.
"The LIR document will shortly be submitted to the Lands Department in Port Moresby for registration, and form the basis of conveying customary land for leasing by the state to the company under a mining lease," Mr McVeigh said.
Indochine continues to seek joint venture participation in the Mt Kare project, with the company indicating it is carefully managing activities on site to conserve cash while it works on a deal.
"Discussions are ongoing with various parties and the company anticipates a conclusion in the near future," Mr McVeigh said.
Mr McVeigh said in the company's September quarterly report they had appointed PCF Capital Group as advisers in their pursuit of investors.
"The timing of future expenditure is dependent on utilising existing cash and financing facilities currently available to the company and the progression of financing discussions," Mr McVeigh said.
The company said they had identified a site at Mt Kare for the proposed exploration adit and were waiting for approval from the Mineral Resource Authority (MRA) to start work on the portal and access.
"Heavy equipment for the development of the exploration adit has been sourced and will be relocated to Mt Kare once the MRA approval is held," Mr McVeigh said.
The company said it had identified three areas of mineralisation for future drill targets after completing mapping of the extent of the oxide ore south of the Black Zone.
Indochine ended the quarter with cash of A$1.1 million and issued capital of 1,206,950,301 fully paid ordinary shares.
The company completed a $3.5 million capital raising in September at $0.032 per share for a total issue of 110,670,000 ordinary shares.

Q: Understand the Technical Limitation for porting Salesforce1 Lightning on Desktop UI I came to know that there is some technical limitation for porting Salesforce1 Lightning App on Desktop UI.
My requirement is to replace existing VF pages with Lightning components.
Can someone please guide me / help me to understand whether this is possible or not?
If not possible, then what is the technical Limitation for porting Salesforce1 Lightning on Desktop UI.
Thanking you in advance for all your cooperation.
With regards,
Sudipta Deb

A: Here at SFSE, there are already very good answers related to your question and I would recommend to read on with the following:

*

*(Why) Should I Use Lightning Apps?

*Now that Lightning is here, what's the future of Visualforce? (in short - Visualforce vs Lightning)

*Lightning - FLS

*Lightning: is direct API access on the roadmap?
As you might see, there is no one and only general answer and the limitation differ in details which can have a huge impact depending on the details of your use case.
It's very important to keep in mind that things are in motion and we might expect "something for the desktop" around dreamforce'15 - so a huge VF migration project could be suboptimal timed at the moment.
Without knowing much of you requirement details, I would recommend to wait for dreamforce.
You need to ask yourself the questions:

*

*why do you need to rewrite/replace VF with Lightning now?

*Is there any current Lightning feature, which you don't have in VF?

*does the current VF implementation works fine - or not so fine and need rework regardless of Lightnification or not?

Here is a Lightning limitation excerpt (compared to VF) which is probably not complete:

*

*Lightning Components are in beta

*No dynamic email templates

*No dynamic PDF generation

*No direct API access

*No inline editing

*Strict CSP settings with some consequences, e.g.

*

*JS-libs can not reside on CDN but need to be Static Resources

*No Ajax calls to external systems

Mind also the ways of injecting Lightnig App/Components into the desktop UI. Peter Chittum has listed some options here:

There are three ways to surface a Lightning components today.

*

*A tab in the Salesforce1 Mobile app

*A Lightning App Builder app that is surfaced as a tab in the Salesforce1 mobile app (which pretty much gives you the exact same
  thing today as you get in the first option, only it is in Pilot only)

*A lightning app with its own requestable URL

I would add to that only that there are (as far as I remember) some visualforce tags which let you embed Lightning components inside a visualforce page.

Trump Appointee Investigating Biden
John Lausch, a Trump-appointed U.S. attorney, is set to investigate the case of the classified documents found in Biden's office.
Lausch was appointed in November of 2017 by former President Donald Trump and was briefed about the investigation by Attorney General Merrick Garland. Upon reviewing the documents Lausch is going to submit a report to Garland of his findings.
The White House has said that the Justice Department is going to be reviewing all of the documents that were found bearing a classified marking in Biden's office space at the Penn Biden Center. Biden had used that space from 2017 until he launched his 2020 presidential campaign. The documents in question were found by Biden's personal attorneys while they were clearing the space on Nov. 2, 2022.
According to Garland's statements and a CBS News report, the review is the first step in order to determine whether a Special counsel is necessary for further investigation into the case.
The Biden administration has said that as soon as the documents were located they immediately contacted the National Archives and Records Administration and collected them on the next day. The documents had been found in a locked closet in Biden's former office
Richard A. Sauber, a special White House Counsel said that the documents were accidentally found and they were not a part of a "request or inquiry by the Archives." He added that since the initial recovery, Biden and his attorneys have collaborated fully with both the Archives and the Department of Justice to ensure that the records are correctly placed in the possession of the Archives.

As I've mentioned a few times on the blog, the conversations in Google Reader are playing an ever-increasing role in my information consumption workflow. The RSS reader's enhancements have not been lost on the makers of Feedly, who have been working on a magazine-like start page for the better part of a year, gaining loyal users who appreciate its enhanced interface for subscriptions. This weekend, the company added support for friends and comments that you have in Google Reader, meaning you are not missing the conversation by using Feedly instead.
As introduced back in June of 2008 (See: Feedly Brings New Social Experience to Start Page, Leveraging RSS), Feedly operates as a start page or magazine hybrid, consisting of a cover page, a digest, the latest information, and now, "friends" and "comments".
Selecting "friends" shows you items recently liked and shared by your contacts, while "comments" exposes the conversations taking place within shared items on Google Reader from your friends. While not every single share spawns a conversation, many of them are, including those on my shared items feed, where I have frequently seen items gain more comments than the original blog post itself of late.
Feedly has also done more than clone Google Reader's utility. They have interestingly added a tool called "Karma", which, if you enter your Twitter ID, will tap into bit.ly, seeing how many clicks a tweet you posted received, as well as how many retweets. It's a good way to see if your activity on that social network is gaining a following.
You can find Feedly at http://www.feedly.com/. For now, the service relies on Firefox, but we've been promised support for Chrome, and maybe other interfaces, is coming.

AlphaTauri believe driver 'continuity' is key with Formula 1's new 2022 regulations
AlphaTauri's chief technical officer Jody Egginton thinks keeping Pierre Gasly and Yuki Tsunoda for 2022 is the right move with mass regulation changes on the way.
The cars will alter radically heading into next season and AlphaTauri have decided maintaining their current driver line-up will help them out as they make the transition.
Gasly is having a sterling season with the team, having amassed 92 points and been a regular feature in the top 10 all season long.
Tsunoda has struggled by comparison, meanwhile, scoring only 20 points in that time.
There are mitigating factors for him in that he had never raced at many of the Formula 1 tracks before this season, and the young Japanese driver has been self-critical at times too – admitting recently he needs to "improve physically" to be able to compete at a higher level in Formula 1.
The team's technical director feels they are already on a positive trajectory overall, and having their two drivers carry on for another year is no bad thing from their point of view.
"A lot of people say it's good to have continuity with the drivers when you are tackling a new set of rules," said Egginton, quoted by Motorsport-Total.
"We've obviously known Pierre for a long time. He has confidence in us and we have faith in him. Considering new rules are always associated with risks, it's a very positive thing to know you have continuity with the drivers because we are also on a kind of journey as a team.
"We are a young team and we are building up our experience. Having Pierre on board next year means one variable fewer, and next year there will be enough variables with the car and everything else. So it's really fantastic.
"We'll see where we stand then. We have our philosophies and we develop the car in a certain way. I hope that will help us move forward.
"Everyone can already see we are on a reasonable path as a team and hopefully it can continue in the same way."
This season, AlphaTauri remain locked in a battle with Alpine to take P5 in the Constructors' Championship, although an excellent weekend for Fernando Alonso and Esteban Ocon in Qatar allowed the Enstone team to open up a 25-point lead over their rivals heading into the final two races of the year.

There is just something about New Jersey that breeds a certain type of life and by extension, a certain type of person. It's as if all those murky swamps, water gaps and rivers formed a natural economy that led to the confluence of jug handles, diners and highway stink. This in turn, begat an enormous amount of interstate travel options, which caused a lot of lost travelers to just settle in New Jersey rather than spend another hour on the Turnpike or its better looking sister The Parkway. This would at least explain how New Jersey came to be the most densely populated state (with a whopping twenty percent of the population foreign born). Of course, crowded areas make for strange bedfellows, which is how it is that soccer moms and gangsters can shop at the same stores and how such disparate entities as the World's Oldest Nudist Camp, the Medieval Times Theme Park/Dinner Theater and the International Castor Oil Association can all co-exist in perfect harmony.
But I would argue that there is a larger factor shaping the people of New Jersey and that is that with the exception of Mall Rats and nail salon owners, just about everyone from the Garden State wants to escape. And because New Jersey is such a difficult state to escape from (mostly because wherever you turn there are tolls and tunnels all requiring cash payment), there is little room for error. You have to be strong, fierce, determined, tenacious and good with maps.In its essence, New Jersey is one giant chrysalis, inside which all us desperate caterpillars spin and rotate until we can become butterflies and fly away.
And much like the way that a butterfly flapping its wings in Brazil can cause a tornado in Texas, the escaped people of New Jersey exert tremendous influence over the world as we know it.
Take Bruce Willis as an example.
Walter Bruce Willis grew up in Penns Grove, New Jersey and later went on to become the uber, box-office success that he is today. But let's suppose for just a moment that Walter Bruce Willis didn't grow up in the armpit of the nation. Let's say for argument's sake, he grew up in Akron, Ohio. What would have happened?
For starters, he would've most definitely stuck with his first name, Walter, and Walter would have grown up content with his surroundings, comfortable in his own skin and state. He would have vacationed at Cedar Point, made out with girls to the strains of The Michael Stanley Band and eventually found work in the tire business.After that he would probably have married a local girl, with a name like Elizabeth or Mandy. They would have had two children and passed their leisure hours watching college football or visiting the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.And life for Walter and his family would have been just dandy, until 1995 when Russian nuclear missiles would have attacked the Eastern seaboard, killing millions instantly and causing others, including Walter, to die a slow and debilitating death from radiation poisoning.
But, Walter Bruce Willis grew up in New Jersey and due to that intrinsic desire to escape, he pushed himself to the limits and ended up becoming one of the world's greatest movie stars. Of course, this wasn't all Bruce did. Let's pause for a moment and ponder a few of his minor accomplishments:
He coined the phrase, "Yippie Ki Yay, Motherfucker" thus enabling tough guys the world over to replace the outmoded and circumstantially limiting "I'll be back!"
He named his daughter Scout, which in turn boosted readership of To Kill A Mockingbird.
He divorced his wife Demi, whose name I might add is actually a preposition. The resulting coverage of the divorce and Demi's subsequent relationship boosted People magazine to record profits. The result was a rise of Time Warner Inc. stock prices, which in turn fueled the bull market.
But all of these pale in comparison to his most major accomplishment which occurred in 1994, when he agreed to star in the Color of Night. The film was instantly green-lit and ultimately made. And though it was panned by critics and is considered to be one of his lesser box office successes, the film was in fact responsible for saving the lives of millions, thus proving the Butterfly Effect once and for all.
Color of Night starred Bruce opposite the very toothy Jane March and was an intricate story involving sex, psychiatry, art and murder.But what most people don't know is that Color of Night is the favored viewing of the sea-based leg of the United States Strategic Deterrent Forces (a.k.a. the SSBN), who prowl the oceans in sleek, stealthy submarines for one hundred day stints. Their primary mission:Nuclear deterrence. Their mission profile: To avert war while remaining undetected. There isn't a crew member on the force, who won't testify to the positive masturbatorial effect that Color Of Night has on the entire SSBN fleet.Something about that Jane March keeps them lucid, clear headed and alert, which is a good thing because on the morning of January 25, 1995, Norwegian scientists launched the largest sounding rocket ever from Andoya Island off the coast of Norway. Designed to study the northern lights, the rocket followed a trajectory to nearly nine hundred thirty miles altitude. To Russian radar technicians, who were no doubt foggy from the plethora of substandard Eastern European porn, the rocket appeared to mimic the flight of a U.S. Trident missile. From their perspective it seemed obvious that the U.S. was trying to blind Russian radar by detonating a nuclear warhead high in the atmosphere, so it could then launch an attack of some sort on Mother Russia. The response time was nearly instantaneous and Russia was suddenly poised to launch a full-scale, pre-emptive nuclear attack on the United States. President Boris Yeltsin put down his vodka, activated his "nuclear football" and lo and behold, WWIII was on . The United States scrambled to find an answer and thankfully it arrived from a SSBN crewman, who after a recent viewing of Color of Night, was so clear headed, lucid and mentally sharp that he determined that the rocket was no rogue, Neo-Con-guided Trident, but rather an annoying Norwegian rocket. Yeltsin got the message just in time and put away the nuclear football. The Eastern Seaboard was saved and millions were spared the debilitating death by radiation poisoning. To this very day, whenever statesmen discuss the Norwegian Rocket Incident, they secretly thank Bruce Willis for getting Color of Night made, because even the most inexperienced spy can tell you, that Jane March could never have gotten that movie green-lit alone.
All this, from one tiny escaped butterfly from New Jersey's polluted chrysalis.
What follows is a list of other people from New Jersey.
Buzz Aldrin, Bud Abbot, Jason Alexander, Charles Addams, Count Basie,Yogi Berra, Robert Blake, Judy Blume, Jon Bon Jovi, Zach Braff , Grover Cleveland, Tom Cruise, James Fenimore Cooper, Lou Costello, Steven Crane, Danny DeVito, Helen Gahagan Douglas, Michael Douglas, Thomas Edison, Connie Francis, Jon Forsythe, Daisy Fuentes, Derek Jeter, Allen Ginsberg, Leslie Gore, William Frederick Halsey Jr., Lauryn Hill, Whitney Houston, Ice T, Alfred C. Kinsey, Ernie Kovacs, Dorothea Lange, Huey Lewis, Jerry Lewis, Norman Mailer, Thomas Mitchell, Jay Mohr, Ricky Nelson, Jack Nicholson, Shaquille O'Neill, Joe Pesci, Zebulon Mongomery Pike, Joe Piscopo, Paul Robeson, Philip Roth, Antonin Scalia, Norman Schwarzkopf, Brooke Shields, Elizabeth and Andrew Shue, Paul Simon, Frank Sinatra, Tony Soprano, Kevin Spacey, Steven Spielberg, Bruce Springsteen, Alfred Stieglitz, Meryl Streep, Dave Thomas, John Travolta, Frankie Vallie, Sarah Vaughan, Dionne Warwick, Denzel Washington, William Carlos William.
Consider the Butterfly Effect that each one of them has had on the world, then see if you have something lousy to say about New Jersey after that. Better yet, the next time you meet someone who is originally from New Jersey, thank them, because the odds are, their very existence has no doubt helped maintain the delicate balance that ultimately allows for all life on earth to exist.

Irene Zion says:
Kristen!
I just finished telling Joe Daly that Bruce Willis was capable of saving the world. (He had this ridiculous idea that Kevin Costner might be the one. HA!)
I can't wait to tell him!
Joe Daly says:
Irene- I am sticking by my comment that Kevin Costner has one good Apocalypse left in him. While Bruce might give his life to safe the world, we still need guys like Kevin Costner in the aftermath, being all pissy and reluctant while inexplicably attracting followers. Unless it's in water. Then I can take him or leave him.
Great piece, Kristen! As a Bostonian transplanted here in San Diego, I find myself often explaining to Californians why I did or said something. Such explanations are never required for anyone in the Tri-State or New England area, because we simply know what it's like to be pushed together in a big ol' sweaty, grey, irritable stew of culture. I have New Jersey natives across the street and next door. They get it.
Rich Ferguson says:
Speaking as someone who spent his teenage years in the piney sticks of Forked River, NJ (with a clear view of a nuclear power plant outside my bedroom window), I just loved this piece. Yes, indeed. It does take a special breed of person to live in Jersey. And it takes a certain breed of individual to escape it, and to live to tell the tale.
As one who escpaed from a small armpit of a town in CA (most call it that, anyway), I can relate. I'd love to have a Jersey accent for a couple days and sort of take it on a trial run. Fun read. I shall now go stretch my wings.
Greg Olear says:
I view NJ as the Ireland of the United States — we produce a disproportionate number of talented people, especially creative types, who leave as soon as they can.
Hailing from the Garden State, I enjoyed this piece. I always forget Willis is from NJ…he's not the Bruce we care about.
i second Greg's statement! Bruce Springsteen will always be the only NJ bruce for me, and not just cuz his aunt was my third grade teacher, and once back in 1984, Clarence Clemons hurt his back in the Friendly's where my brother's friend's mom was a waitress and had to take him to the hospital, where my algebra teacher was with his son, and where, sitting in the park lot, they claim a Cadillac pulled alongside them, a window rolled down, and it was Bruce himself asking where the E/R was, and while my algebra teacher calmly (somewhat) told him, his 14-year old son died a thousand deaths.
anyway, great piece, kristen! and thank you for the excuse to tell my bruce springsteen story. 🙂
Simon Smithson says:
There's a book on the Sopranos that makes the excellent point that if you dropped the 'New' from anything else, people wouldn't know what you were talking about – but say 'Jersey', and everyone knows instantly.
Thank you, Jersey, for my continued existence, and the existence of those who I love and cherish.
Kristen Buckley says:
It's all about Jersey pride. I spent my entire adolescence trying to figure out how to escape, now I can't wait to take my kids to Seaside Heights! Jersey is great – the people are the best…
One other note re the Costner/Willis situation mentioned above: There's no WAY Kevin Costner could ever save the world. Where is this Costner thing coming from? Swing Vote? For the Love of the Game? The Upside of Anger? Waterworld? vs… hmm… Die Hard 1-4, Twelve Monkeys (if you haven't seen the movie that inspired it La Jetee – do so)? Pulp Fiction? Bruce always trumps Kevin. Which reminds me, once I was playing poker at this celebrity poker thing and I was at the table with Bruce Willis, and Don Cheadle and Jon Farvreau, and Sly Stallone of all people (don't ask why I was invited, I don't know), and I was losing, and sulking, and muttering 'this sucks' and then I won a hand and I CHEERED, and basically I gloated as I pulled in all the chips – then Bruce smiled at me and said, "Doesn't suck now, does it?" and I giggled like a three-year-old. Oh, and I was also sitting with John Cusack, and I kept wanting to ask him to say lines from SAY ANYTHING but I didn't because I was so shocked by the size of his enormous head. Now that I think about it, I think John Cusack would be a better choice to save the world than Kevin Costner. He would just raise his boom-box and play In Your Eyes and the world would be saved.
Robin Antalek says:
I just spent a surreal day in Asbury Park where I strolled the boardwalk and had a really fabulous lunch in a "surf shop/art gallery/restaurant." While I was there a cheerleading competition was being held in the convention center on the boardwalk — large groups of cheerleaders were everywhere performing stunts, warming up, taking pictures, giggling while their mothers/coaches ushered them from one location to the next all wearing eerily similar outfits that included enormous designer handbags, dark hair and Juicy Couture sweatsuits. Into the middle of this carnival a large black bus pulls up and a wedding party disembarks. The bridesmaids wore black strapless dresses with enormous red roses pinned to their impressive examples of cleavage, along with very high, very teased black hair rocking the bump-it look — they were all — groomsmen included — carrying fistfuls of red balloons. When the bride and groom joined them they released the balloons and then started posing like they were about to be on the cover of Rolling Stone ( before it experienced shrinkage).
I LOVE New Jersey.
I shot three rolls of film….
Judy Prince says:
"Demi, whose name I might add is actually a preposition"
"escaped people of New Jersey exert tremendous influence over the world"
Kristen, this was an awesome piece. Your extended riffs on Bruce Willis
and The Color of Night exemplifying Chaos Theory is glorious original
comedy; your wit the flavour throughout.
JWo says:
Jersey is one of a kind! My mom is from Trenton. "Trenton Makes the World Takes".
Thanks for all the kind words!
Oh, New Jersey! It's like a kid brother who is usually obnoxious, but when he has a good idea and pulls it off, it's a really good one. Really funny piece. Thank God for Bruce Willis.

1238 Seymour St., Unit1209, Vancouver.
The Action: The unit was shown to nearly 60 groups during a one-week period. Listing agent Paul Albrighton says it received five offers. The buyer lived nearby and purchased the unit for her daughter.
What They Got: The downtown studio suite is a square-shaped 371 square feet., with solarium and updated laminate flooring, custom-built storage closet and original kitchen and bathroom.
It's steps to shopping, the sea wall, the Canada Line SkyTrain station and the downtown core.
The 223-unit, 22-storey tower, built in 1996 and called the Space, includes studios, one- and two-bedroom units, lofts and townhomes. It includes a gym, meeting rooms and a rooftop patio.
The Agent's Take: "This downtown studio was amongst the smaller studios available in all of downtown," Albrighton says.
It was the best-priced freehold apartment studio available in Yaletown or the southern portion of downtown in March, he says.
"The suite appealed to younger first-time buyers, and investors looking to purchase a rental property, as the building allowed for rentals."

Q: Не подтягиваются обновлённые данные из БД при использовании Entity Framework Ситуация следующая:
 Имеется программа которая работает с БД с использованием технологии Entity Framework. Данную программу удалённо с сервера используют несколько пользователей.
Теперь проблема: При внесении/обновлении данных они могут не подтянуться у другого пользователя.
 Принцип работы с Entity у меня следующий (глупый, но сейчас не суть):
В "глобальном" классе создаю статический контекст БД так, что все запросы Linq в программе ссылаются на этот контекст.
Загрузка данных используется ленивая для всех динамичных таблиц и жадная для таблиц с постоянными данными, используя статический контекст.
Теперь так: одновременно в программу заходят 2 человека. Один добавляет данные, второй их видит.
Для примера, данные - это какой-то акт, новому акту должен присваиваться какой-то порядковый номер на единицу больший прошлого. Номер последнего акта сохраняется в базу данных в таблицу настройки, которая имеет одну строку. И вот, при создании нового акта другим пользователем, отсчёт его номера идёт с момента загрузки программы, т.е. номера актов начинают повторяться.
Если для выборки данных я использую запрос, сформированный на языке linq, то для чтения данных с таблицы настроек следующий запрос: Global.Контекст.Таблица.First(). Но данные настроек в программе локально нигде не сохраняются, жадная загрузка данных для настройки не используется.
Быть может проблема в методе First()? Может он использует какие-то загруженные данные?


The number of New York City students suspended from school has dropped by 23 percent.
The city Department of Education says there were 53,465 suspensions in the 2012-2013 school year compared to 69,643 suspensions in the previous school year.
The department is required to report suspension data to the City Council twice a year.
Schools Chancellor Dennis Walcott says the drop in suspensions is due in part to the hard work done in schools to address incidents before they escalate.
Walcott says the department has also introduced a pilot program as part of the Young Men's Initiative to promote the successful re-entry of students back into schools.

Q: Can I restrict web folder access to only logged in users of my website? My website users login using accounts they setup in my website.
I of course store their login info in a db table and this table is accessed when they fill out the login form. This is just a proprietary system I created.
When users are logged in, they can see a list of documents that are stored in a folder on my website. If they are not logged in, they don't have access to this list. However, if someone knows the direct URL of one of the documents, they can download it without logging in. I want to restrict access to this folder to only logged-in users.
I guess I could put a password on the folder itself, but I don't want users to have to enter a password twice. How can I detect if the user is logged in and restrict access to only a logged in user?
Forgive me if this question sounds basic, but I come from the world of IIS and I'm not sure how to do this using a PHP web server.
This is basically the same question
, although I'm not using asp.net or IIS.

A: You can use ".htaccess" file to achieve this goal...
Check this:
http://www.linuxhelp.net/guides/htaccessmysql/

A: I'd setup a page that they could login to that would list out the files and allow the user to click on.  It could easily be tied into your existing system that way with very little effort.  You could then protect the directory from direct listing on screen and be as secure as your existing auth system allows.
Here's an example of how to get the files in a particular directory  You could then foreach the array and link them up accordingly.  If you were really concerned about file "theft" you could setup a download page that the user would have to route through to get the downloads themselves, thereby totally obscuring the directory.

A: try not give the user the direct url of your documents,you can make a php file,first check user and then read the document and output it.

SLAM Top 50: Hassan Whiteside, No. 37
With Whiteside at center, the Heat is likely heading back to the playoffs in '17-18.
by Jack Jensen September 13, 2017
Young Whiteside stays rising.
Twenty-eight years old and Miami's current king, Hassan Whiteside's seemingly unlimited potential still somehow feels as though it's barely tapped. In fact, the kid is only growing stronger.
Since joining the Heat in 2014, the 7-foot Whiteside has breathed new life into South Beach and increased his on-court production nearly across the board. During his first season as a full-time starter last year, he penciled in 17 points, 14 boards and 2 blocks per game, all while leading the League in rebounds. That's a year removed from leading the League in swats with an absurd 3.7 per contest.
In the process, he's also become the new cornerstone of a franchise who's already put three banners into the rafters.
AND THAT'S NOT EVEN MENTIONING HIS SNAPCHAT.
Sidebar: Hassan Whiteside might have the best social media flow in the game. Blessings to Richard Jefferson and LBJ, but the man took us all on a free guided tour of the Louvre Museum, and moonlighted as a detective in a very delicate parrot investigation. The case still appears to be unsolved, but that's creative range, folks. On and off the court.
Back to the matter at hand.
What makes Whiteside so dangerous–and why we expect him to rise up the SLAM Top 50 even more after this season–is that he influences and changes the game from all over the floor.
Where a younger Whiteside might have hunted for blocks on any given possession, he now operates more within the team defensive scheme without sacrificing the presence and shot blocking instincts that have made him so valuable. And as he continues to improve and add to his post move arsenal on the low block, we're also beginning to see a player who's gaining more confidence shooting outside the paint. Because he cannot be left unwatched or unmanned on either side of the ball, and because he can cover 94 feet in what feels like three steps, he has become a matchup terror on the nightly. This is a guy who once dropped a triple-double (with blocks) in 25 minutes off the bench, and who corralled at least 18 boards in three of Miami's final five games to finish last year out.
This year, he might also just help push the Heat right back into the postseason, where they just barely missed out on back in April. With new frontcourt reinforcements in Kelly Olynyk and rookie Bam Adebayo set to ease some pressure off Whiteside's shoulders, expect coach Erik Spoelstra to feature him even more this season.
There's no doubt that maximum Whiteside is going to be very fun to watch.
But if all that, or his freshly minted 87 rating on 2K18 doesn't convince you, may I please direct your attention to this lovely video of Hassan becoming increasingly annoyed by a dancing hotdog.
So. Much. Range.

text: Marc Chagall was born in Belarus in 1887 and developed an early interest in art. After studying painting, in 1907 he left Russia for Paris, where he lived in an artist colony on the city's outskirts. Fusing his own personal, dreamlike imagery with hints of the fauvism and cubism popular in France at the time, Chagall created his most lasting work—including I and the Village (1911)—some of which would be featured in the Salon des Indépendants exhibitions. After returning to Vitebsk for a visit in 1914, the outbreak of WWI trapped Chagall in Russia. He returned to France in 1923 but was forced to flee the country and Nazi persecution during WWII. Finding asylum in the U.S., Chagall became involved in set and costume design before returning to France in 1948. In his later years, he experimented with new art forms and was commissioned to produce numerous large-scale works. Chagall died in St.-Paul-de-Vence in 1985.

Can Imran Khan mend the broken Pakistan-Afghanistan relationship?
The Saudis are making moves in Afghanistan, courting the Taliban and trying to cement its role as a dealmaker. Will Saudi's vested interests trump its role as a mediator?
Afghan government officials reportedly met with members of the Taliban in Saudi Arabia last week to address security in Afghanistan's upcoming parliamentary elections and discuss a prisoner release. Saudi Arabia had previously brokered talks between the two sides ten years ago, and appears to be stepping up its involvement in the conflict again as part of a joint US-led effort with the UAE and Afghanistan.
At the same time, another peace effort is underway in Doha, Qatar, where the Taliban's political commission is based.
In July, US officials conducted face-to-face secret talks in Doha with the Taliban to resolve the 17-year Afghan war. Another round of talks was planned for later this year, but the Taliban refused to agree to US demands for a three-month ceasefire. Then came the meeting in Saudi Arabia.
Riyadh's concern regarding Afghanistan is driven mainly by the role played there by the kingdom's two main rivals, Iran and Qatar. Tehran has reportedly formed an alliance with the Taliban, which it sees as a partner against Daesh in Afghanistan.
Qatar, for its part, exerts influence in Afghan politics thanks to the presence of the Taliban office in Doha, where numerous talks have occurred between parties to the conflict.
As part of its current peace moves, Saudi Arabia apparently wishes to split the Taliban and lure away factions hostile to Iran, who might reconcile with the Afghan government and participate in a power-sharing agreement. By increasing its political role in Afghanistan, it might also counter Qatari influence in Afghan politics and mitigate Doha's diplomatic importance.
Will an old hand resurface old problems?
Saudi Arabia's involvement in Afghanistan goes back decades. The Kingdom partnered with the US and Pakistan to oppose the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan in the 1980s.
When the country descended into civil war following the Soviet withdrawal, Riyadh dropped the militants it had previously backed and supported the Taliban. Saudi Arabia, with Pakistan and the UAE, was one of only three countries that recognised the Taliban government.
But, after 9/11, Riyadh severed diplomatic ties with the Taliban and threw its weight behind the new Afghan administration of Hamid Karzai. However, private donations from wealthy Saudis continued to flow to the group.
As Afghanistan became more unstable in the 2000s and Iran's role there grew, Riyadh also increased its involvement, brokering talks between the Taliban and Afghan government in 2008-2009.
The kingdom has financed a university, mosque and hospitals in Afghanistan, in part to counter Tehran. It formed close ties with President Ghani, who made his first official overseas visit to Riyadh and also signed up to a new Saudi-led counterterrorism alliance, which excludes Qatar and Iran.
Furthermore, the increasingly anti-Shia Afghan political party Hezb e Islami may receive Saudi funds, according to Afghanistan expert Antonio Giustozzi.
Saudi Arabia's regional competition with Iran also extends to the energy sector. Riyadh is investing in the Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India gas pipeline (TAPI). Construction of the Afghan section of TAPI commenced in February, 2018.
The pipeline would supply Pakistan and India with gas, potentially eliminating the need for gas imports from Iran, which have long been planned via the delayed Iran-Pakistan-India pipeline.
While much of Riyadh's interest in Afghanistan relates to Iran, its Gulf rival Qatar is also a factor.
In 2011 Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar competed to host a political office for the Taliban. Saudi and the Emirates demanded, as a condition of hosting the group, that they renounce Al Qaeda and accept the Afghan constitution. Qatar made no such demands, and the office was opened in Doha in 2013.
Since then, Saudi Arabia's rivalry with Qatar has intensified, culminating in the severing of all ties in 2017. In a further effort to marginalise Qatar and reduce its influence in Afghanistan, Riyadh urged President Trump to shut down the Taliban office in Doha.
The kingdom's envoy in Afghanistan has accused Qatar of supporting the Taliban, who he referred to as "armed terrorists".
This harsh rhetoric is part of an increasingly hostile Saudi attitude to the group. The kingdom has also used coercive tactics to force the Taliban to negotiate. For example, in July the kingdom organized a conference of ulema who denounced the Taliban's war as un-Islamic and urged peace talks. Saudi Arabia has also increased pressure on its ally Pakistan to reduce its alleged support for terror groups.
Last week's meeting aside, Riyadh has had little diplomatic success.
Qatar, by contrast, not only won its bid to host the Taliban office, but has brokered numerous rounds of talks. The Taliban apparently despise and distrust Saudi Arabia, which they see as having betrayed them to the Americans after 9/11. Moreover, the group has strained relations with Saudi ally Pakistan, which has arrested dozens of Taliban in recent years.
Riyadh may therefore struggle to play a positive role in negotiations. There is also a danger that Saudi Arabia will exploit any peace process to undermine Iran and Qatar. But a successful resolution to the war in Afghanistan will require a broad multilateral agreement between various countries, including Iran, Russia, Pakistan, and others.
Cooperation, not conflict, is the order of the day.
Given its importance in the Muslim world, Saudi Arabia should be well-placed to facilitate a successful Afghan peace process. Whether it actually does so, is another matter.

Reconfigure wins Woodbine Turf Sprint Series final
TORONTO, August 21, 2019 – Reconfigure made a late dash to take the $75,000 final of the inaugural Woodbine Turf Sprint Series by less than a length with Patrick Husbands aboard on Wednesday evening (August 21) at Woodbine Racetrack.
The first two legs of the competitive series also yielded close calls with Stormy Rush upsetting at 11-1 by a neck then Perfect Forester nosing him out in a subsequent photo finish.
They raced one-two out of the gate and were joined on the outside by Western Trouble down the backside in the finale, but series newcomer Reconfigure hauled down the front-runners in deep stretch to win the five-furlong dash on the new inner turf in a course record :55.62.
Reconfigure was the 7-5 favourite entering the series with a 2-1-1 record from four seasonal starts and he paid $4.80 to win. Taking home the lion's share of the purse, he nearly doubled his annual income.
Perfect Forester was boxed in at the rail turning for home, but escaped late to edge out Western Trouble and Stormy Rush for the runner-up role. Hitters Park, Sumerian Bell, Nashville Knight and Arrius completed the order of finish.

The lightly raced seven-year-old Lemon Drop Kid gelding, with a sporadic race record prior to 2019, was claimed by trainer/owner Robert Tiller for $25,000 last month.
With a pair of wins in his first two career starts at Gulfstream Park back in 2014 and 2016, Reconfigure is now five-for-seven lifetime.
The series was for horses three years old and up that have started for a claiming price of $25,000 or less in 2018-2019.
Live Thoroughbred racing continues at Woodbine Racetrack on Friday, with first race post time set for 4:05 p.m.

With single screen theatres being forced to opt for Mohenjo Daro, will Rustom's chances be limited in single screen theatres?
The clash between the Akshay Kumar starrer Rustom and the Hrithik Roshan starrer, Mohenjo Daro was being seen as an epic Independence week clash this year but as of now the inevitable truth is that it is the screen count for the two films will finally decide their fate at the box-office. The latest on the two films is that the battle lines have been drawn between the two distributors with single screen theatres being reportedly forced to give more number of shows to Mohenjo Daro, due to an earlier three-film deal signed by the exhibitors with the producers Disney UTV. Apparently these exhibitors were not aware that Rustom would come up for release on the same day, when they worked out the deal. The big question is whether single screen theatres will now back out of the deal and go for Rustom. This problem was also experienced during the big clash between Bajirao Mastani and Dilwale, when exhibitors who were prevented from releasing Dilwale due to an earlier agreement, had gone to court against Eros, after which the sessions court had ruled in their favour. However it was Bajirao Mastani that eventually scored over Dilwale at the Indian box-office.

Composite materials are replacing traditional materials such as wood and steel due to their corrosion-resistant properties. Industries, such as the corrosion industry, that often-subject equipment to harsh environmental elements and chemicals require material that can withstand the corrosive nature of the elements without losing strength or structural integrity.
Closed mold processes are an efficient way to manufacture corrosion-resistant products. Specifically, Vacuum Infusion Processing can be used as a cost-effective method to manufacture corrosion-resistant composites at a high quality.
What are the advantages of Vacuum Infusion Processing for composites?
Vacuum Infusion Processing is a type of closed mold process that requires the resin to be poured into a vacuum-sealed bag where it will take the shape of the mold. You can read through the exact process here.
There are many advantages of using the Vacuum Infusion Process to manufacture corrosion-resistant composite products. One such advantage is that this process provides a standardized bill of material due to the constant flow of the process. The fiberglass and resin usage remain the same throughout the process unless one of the process variables, such as the permeability of the reinforcement construction, viscosity of the resin or the pressure differential in the cavity is changed. It also features a good glass-to-resin ratio with limited-to-no voids in the finished product.
Another advantage of using Vacuum Infusion Processing for composites manufacturing is the minimal styrene emissions that negatively impact the environment. Because this process is closed mold, the emissions are reduced significantly compared to some open mold processes.
Composites One has a team of technical specialists proficient in the closed mold process, including Vacuum Infusion Processing, Light Resin Transfer and Reusable Bag Molding. If you are a manufacturer and you want to make your molding process more efficient with a higher quality product outcome, contact our technical specialists today.


This month's box from Beauty Box 5 contained some products that are perfect for an end of summer pick-me-up!
Nanacoco - Lip Gloss in "Lovely"
Novex - Brazilian Keratin Deep Hair Care Cream - This deep conditioning treatment is made to revive and revitalize your dry and damaged hair (a must-need for summer!). After shampooing, apply it like your regular conditioner and leave it on for 15-25 minutes. I'm impatient and left it on for 10, but it still worked really well. When I blow-dried my hair, I noticed it was smoother and looked a little straighter too.
LA Fresh - Travel Lite Oil-Free Makeup Remover Wipes - I went to a wedding last weekend and these were extremely helpful when it came to taking my makeup at the end of the night. They removed my normally stubborn eyeliner and mascara, and even my lipstick! I liked the scent, and the formula is non-sticky and non-drying. It's designed for traveling and is the perfect size to bring along on short trips (and it's cheap too!). Check out my 'before' and 'after' photos below.
Pur~Lisse - Pur~Protect Sunscreen SPF 30 - I'm a huge fan of Pur~Lisse products! They're a little on the pricey side, but they work really well on my combination/dry skin. This sunscreen is moisturizing without being greasy or heavy, and it absorbs fast too (perfect for applying under makeup when it's hot outside).
Style Essentials - Nail Polish from "Touch of Teal" Collection - This nail polish is a very pretty iridescent hexagonal glitter. I used it as a topcoat over a pastel purple polish and the result was a subtle shimmer that added just the right amount of refined sparkle with just one coat. I can't wait to really pack on the layers next time--I feel like it'll be great for a glitter ombre. See below.
Nanacoco - Lip Gloss in "Lovely" - I was a little nervous to try this lip gloss because the shade looked very bright in the container (I love saturated reds and corals, but pinks can be tricky on me), but not to worry because this added a sheer wash of pink that was surprisingly flattering and wearable. See below.

What Child Is This?
Song lyrics to the classic Christmas carol, 'What Child is This?'
What Child Is This? is a Christmas carol, lyrics were written by William Chatterton Dix, in 1865. At the time, Dix had been struck by a severe illness. While recovering, he underwent a spiritual renewal that led him to write several hymns, including lyrics to this carol that was subsequently set to the tune of "Greensleeves", a traditional English folk song. Although it was written in Great Britain, the carol is more popular in the United States.
What child is this, who, laid to rest,
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet,
While shepherds watch are keeping?
This, this is Christ the King,
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing:
Haste, haste to bring him laud,
The babe, the son of Mary.
Why lies he in such mean estate
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Good Christian, fear: for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading.
So bring him incense, gold, and myrrh,
Come, peasant, king, to own him.
the King of kings salvation brings,
Let loving hearts enthrone him.
