What I learned in 100 Days
Here goes: the last and final "What I learned…" post. But this time, for the whole 100 days.
This is the most exciting time in music that I've ever experienced
And I grew with Motley Crue, Guns 'n Roses, R.E.M. Metallica, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, U2, Public Enemy, N.W.A., Run DMC, Red Hot Chili Peppers and more. These are all legendary, amazing bands. But I'm telling you – right now this is the most exciting time in music. At least for my generation and those younger than me. Here's why.
The old music model is broken, but that's okay: the power has shifted to the artist. The Internet is killing majors, but fuck majors. You don't need them. But bands need you, now more than ever. Bands may not make any money selling records, but they never did anyways. Fans have the power to keep music alive by simply going to see live music, buying merchandise (and yes, records) directly from bands. This has never been more true than ever before. Fans have direct access to more music than any other time in music.
Some might say there's no quality control anymore. But fuck that. You are the quality controller. You decide. Any band that has access to a computer can record a song, put it on the Internet and let the people decide if it's any good or not. That's exciting because there's more of it, and you can decide what's worth your time.
Not only that, but look at the music itself. Take the genre of "indie rock" for example. Listen, I hate genre monikers like this (remember "alternative rock"?) but it's exciting when one "genre" can be as diverse as to include bands like Belle & Sebastian, Matt and Kim, Sufjan Stevens, Feist and Blitzen Trapper, alongside Animal Collective, N.E.R.D., Kings of Leon, The Avett Brothers, Of Montreal, Bell Orchestre, Black Lips, Wolff, and Wilco.
The '60s sounded like revolution. The '70s sounded like rock and disco. The '80s sounded like pop, new wave, DIY and glam. And the '90s sounded like grunge and hip hop. So what does the '00s sound like? All of the above and them some. And that's pretty damn exciting
People like to see other people do things they couldn't imagine themselves doing
People remained curious about this project from beginning to end. At first, I think they wanted to know about the music. Later when they asked me, "How's the project coming?" I think what they really meant was, "How the hell are you still awake or alive or sane?
People like being a part of something
This goes for all the friends who joined me on the journey, the musicians, PR contacts, managers, etc who I met, plus the random people who emailed me and generous people who sent donations. When I started out, I hoped a lot of my friends would go to some shows with me, but I figured I'd do most of it alone. Boy was I wrong. Friends came out of the woodwork for this, and it was awesome.
I also tried to meet as many musicians as I could. I would approach them after their set to tell them what I was doing. About 98% of the time the response was really great. A few musicians blew me off, but fuck them. They were too self-involved anyhow, so who cares. I got to meet some great people. And they were as happy to be a part of it as I was to be doing it. See The Wrens entry for an example of how happy.
As you know I also took donations. These were not only a way to help me get through the 100 days, but for everyone to get involved and feel apart of the 100 days. Some were as small as $1, some got as big as $200 or $250, but I appreciated them all equally.
Finally, I was fortunate enough to get on a lot of guest lists. Sometimes that was a result of me unabashedly requesting it, but more often than not they were offered up by different contacts I made, or people who contacted me along the way. The generosity of PR folks, band members, band managers, label people and so on was helpful, humbling and appreciated.
The band (almost always) starts an hour after the venue says they will
Keep this in mind if you're going to see a show in NYC, at the Bowery or Mercury for example. If they say the band goes on at 8pm, they actually go on around 9pm – or later. This is just how it is, at least in NY. Why? Alcohol.
Venues want to get you in and sell you as many overpriced drinks as they can before you notice that you're waiting for the band to start. And they've gotten pretty good at timing it out. Which meant I got pretty good at timing when I needed to show up. Unless I wanted to see the opening bad, then I was screwed.
But, there are a few exceptions:
The "Early show"
These is the show before the show that's scheduled to bring in the real crowd that night. The doors for these shows are usually at 6:30pm or 7:00pm, and the bands tend to start 30 minutes after they say they will.
Shows start on time in Europe. I learned this one the hard way when I missed Ben Lee at La Fleche d'Or. But it wasn't just France. Shows in England started at or near the listed time, too. Just a word to the wise if you're gonna see a show in Europe.
Random, unforeseen bullshit
You show up hoping to see the band that starts at 10pm only to find out that they pulled out and aren't playing. Or their timeslot got swapped with the band at 9pm. Or the band that was supposed to play at 8pm didn't show up, and so each band got bumped up an hour. All of these happened to me, and it pissed me off, but what can you do?
Beer is only as good as the tap it comes out of
I drank a lot of beer over 100 days, which is why I'm not drinking any for another month or two. But I didn't do this for me. I did it for you, the readers. Ok, that's what I tell myself. But either way, I did it, and now I'm here to report back.
Here is your guide to the best/worst beer taps in NYC: (from worst to best)
Mercury Lounge: Shitty
The PBR is the worst, but it's also the cheapest, which makes it tempting. Don't do it. It tastes and smells terrible. The Bud Light is ok, but I would step it up if you're at the Merc.
Bowery Ballroom: Just ok
Stella isn't bad here, but can be a bit average, and lose some of the sweetness it should have. And it's $7, which is bullshit, so they should clean the taps and figure a way of making it worth the price.
Webster Hall: Not bad
Plastic cups suck, but the beer wasn't bad.
Pianos: Pretty Good
I drank mostly PBR cans at Pianos, but the times that I drank from the tap, I got a Stella and it was pretty decent – mostly because it comes in a glass, not a plastic cup.
The Bell House: Good
Didn't really drink too much from the tap here, the cans are too cheap ($4), but the one time I did, it was good.
Cake Shop: Good
The music room may be a dive, but the tap beer is good.
Rockwood Music Hall: Good
Pretty decent, but I'd suggest getting a glass of wine instead. They pour them pretty deep.
Music Hall of Williamsburg: Very good
Probably because it's new, but all the beer I drank here was good.
Le Poisson Rouge: Very good
I hate the stupid mandatory 20% tip if you use your card at LPR, but it's a new enough venue that the beers come out of the tap tasting delicious.
Joe's Pub: Excellent
It's a nicer and more expensive venue, so naturally, they care about their bar.
Going to shows alone isn't as bad as it seems
Before this project, I would go see a band alone, but not that often. And I'd feel sorry for myself, and hate that I didn't have anyone to talk to, and waaaaahh waaaaahh waaaaahh… Then I realized, seeing a band can be like seeing a movie. Once it begins, being alone is fine. You shouldn't be talking during the music anyhow. Granted, some bands are a lot more fun to see with friends. But don't let the fact that no one else wants to go keep you from going. Just go.
Get to know unknown bands
It's only natural to want to blow off bands you've never heard of before. You've never heard them, so why would you care? That is, unless you need to see music every single night, like I did. And sometimes there's a night where you don't know who to see, so you have to pick a band at random – as I did. And you know what you'd find out? It's worth taking chances on unknown bands.
Music will never cease to amaze me
The fact that I can find live music in downtown Hartford, CT on a random Monday night amazes me. How I can still see Les Paul, the 93-year old man who invented the solid body electric guitar, every Monday night, have him flick me off for a picture and meet him afterwards amazes me. The fact that I can be asked on stage to perform with a band that's been together for over 20 years, to a sold out crowd in NYC amazes me. And the fact that I can see 100 consecutive days of live music and still love music amazes me.
Thanks for reading. Now do yourself a favor and go buy a ticket to see a band, right now.

Salomon's S-Lab XT series receives an update in Fall 2013, though fans of the XT 5 need not worry – the changes in store are mainly cosmetic. The XT 6 will remain an ideal choice for mountaineers taking on the most technical and demanding trails. For those running in snowy or muddy conditions, a Softground version featuring deeper lugs also will be available.
We measured samples at 11.1 oz for a size 9 XT 6, and 11.7 oz for the Softground model of the same size.
What to Watch For
- Improved Fit: Salomon's endoFIT technology has been added, featuring an internal sleeve construction for a more seamless, bootie-like fit.
- New Lace Garage Design: The laces now run through the lace garage, which opens at the top of the tongue for easier access. It's all in the details.
- Carryover Platform: The mid and outsole carry over unchanged in this update, offering the same protective and supportive ride as the prior model.
Release Date
September 2013

Product Details
The ADXRS623 is a complete angular rate sensor (gyroscope) that uses the Analog Devices, Inc. surface-micromachining process to create a functionally complete and low cost angular rate sensor integrated with all required electronics on one chip. The manufacturing technique for this device is the same high volume BiMOS process used for high reliability automotive airbag accelerometers.
The ADXRS623 is an automotive grade gyroscope. Automotive grade gyroscopes have more extensive guaranteed min/max specifications due to automotive testing.
The output signal, RATEOUT (1B, 2A), is a voltage proportional to the angular rate about the axis that is normal to the top surface of the package. The output is ratiometric with respect to a provided reference supply. A single external resistor between SUMJ and RATEOUT can be used to lower the scale factor. An external capacitor sets the bandwidth. Other external capacitors are required for operation.
A temperature output is provided for compensation techniques. Two digital self-test inputs electromechanically excite the sensor to test proper operation of both the sensor and the signal conditioning circuits. The ADXRS623 is available in a 7 mm × 7 mm × 3 mm BGA chip scale package.

EMERYVILLE, CA and CARROS, FRANCE – May 28, 2013 — NovaBay Pharmaceuticals, Inc., (NYSE MKT:NBY), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on the topical, anti-infective market, today entered into a collaboration and license agreement with Virbac (NYSE Euronext: VIRP), a global veterinary product company. Virbac exercised its March 2012 Feasibility and Option Agreement, thereby acquiring exclusive worldwide rights to develop NovaBay's proprietary compound, auriclosene (NVC-422), for global veterinary markets. NovaBay will receive an option exercise fee as well as development and pre-commercial milestone payments as a result of the collaboration. NovaBay also expects to receive royalties on the sale of any commercial products in the companion animal field. Virbac's option exercise follows its extensive testing of auriclosene for veterinary uses during the 12-month option period.
"This agreement with Virbac is an important part of our strategy of exploring the uses of auriclosene for a variety of indications, including veterinary medicine," said Dr. Ron Najafi, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of NovaBay Pharmaceuticals. "We look forward to continuing our collaboration with Virbac as it conducts additional studies using auriclosene."
Jean-Pascal Marc, Corporate Product Innovation Director of Virbac commented: "We are pleased to be using our decades-strong leadership in veterinary medicine to explore the development of NovaBay's auriclosene in animal health uses. The agreement with NovaBay is in line with Virbac's strategy of seeking innovative products which have the potential to create value and adapted to animal health market evolution."
About NovaBay Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Going Beyond Antibiotics
NovaBay Pharmaceuticals is a biotechnology company focused on addressing the large unmet therapeutic needs of the global, topical anti-infective market with its two distinct categories of compounds, Aganocides® and NeutroPhase® Skin and Wound Cleanser. The Company's four core business units – DermaBay, UroBay, EyeBay and MediBay – are developing treatments that tackle infections in the dermatology, urology, ophthalmology, and wound care areas.
Aganocide® Compounds
NovaBay's first-in-class Aganocide compounds, led by auriclosene, are patented, topical antimicrobials with a broad spectrum of activity against bacteria, viruses and fungi. Mimicking the mechanism of action that human white blood cells use against infections, Aganocides are not subject to bacterial or fungal resistance, which has been demonstrated in in vitro and in vivo studies. Having demonstrated clinical efficacy in Phase 2 proof-of-concept clinical studies, auriclosene is well suited to treat and prevent a wide range of local, non-systemic infections. NovaBay's clinical development activities are focused on the following three disease areas:
Dermatology: Partnered with Galderma, a leading dermatology company, to develop a formulation of auriclosene for the treatment of highly contagious skin infection, impetigo, which occurs most commonly in children. Enrollment into a global Phase 2b clinical study has begun and clinical data results are expected in the second half 2013.
Ophthalmology: NovaBay is developing an eye drop formulation of auriclosene for treating adenoviral conjunctivitis, a highly contagious viral eye infection for which there is no approved treatment. Enrollment into a global Phase 2b clinical study has begun, and clinical data results are expected in the second half of 2013.
Urology: NovaBay's urinary catheter irrigation solution containing auriclosene is currently in a Phase 2 study, with the goal of reducing the incidence of urinary catheter blockage and encrustation (UCBE). The Company reported positive data from an earlier part of an ongoing Phase 2 study and is evaluating the effect of an alternate more potent formulation of auriclosene. Results are expected mid-year.
Distinct from NovaBay's Aganocides drug platform, NeutroPhase has been cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as a 510(k) medical device and is indicated as a skin and wound cleanser. NeutroPhase, which targets the 6 million-patient U.S. market of chronic non-healing wounds, such as pressure, venous stasis and diabetic ulcers, is the only pure hypochlorous acid solution available today. For additional information, visit: www.neutrophase.com.

Founded in 1968 and headquartered in Carros, France, Virbac develops, manufactures and distributes a wide range of vaccines and medicines for the prevention and treatment of common pathologies in both companion and food-producing animals.

Senate Bill No. 639
(By Senators Snyder, Palumbo, Foster and Klempa)
[Introduced February 17, 2012; referred to the Committee on the Judiciary.]
A BILL to amend and reenact §48-18-125 of the Code of West Virginia, 1931, as amended, relating to the Bureau for Child Support Enforcement; reporting employment and income; providing definition of "independent contractor"; and reporting income of an independent contractor if the contract for services is over $2,500.
Be it enacted by the Legislature of West Virginia:
That §48-18-125 of the Code of West Virginia, 1931, as amended, be amended and reenacted to read as follows:
§48-18-125. Employment and income reporting.
(a) For purposes of this section:
(1) "Employee" means an individual who is an "employee" for purposes of federal income tax withholding, as defined in 26 U.S.C. §3401;
(2) "Employer" means the person or entity for whom an individual performs or performed any service of whatever nature and who has control of the payment of the individual's wages for performance of the service or services, as defined in 26 U.S.C. §3401;
(3) "Independent Contractor" means an individual who is not an employee of the employer and who receives compensation or executes a contract for services performed for that employer. Independent contractor does not include a direct seller as defined in 26 U. S. C. §3508(b)(2).
(3) (4) An individual is considered a "new hire" on the first day in which that individual performs services for remuneration and on which an employer begins to withhold amounts for income tax purposes.
(b) Except as provided in subsections (c) and (d) of this section, all employers doing business in the state shall report to the Bureau for Child Support Enforcement:
(1) The hiring of any person who resides or works in this state to whom the employer anticipates paying earnings; and
(2) The rehiring or return to work of any employee or independent contractor who resides or works in this state; and
(3) The contracting for services in the state with an independent contractor when payment for the services is $2,500 or more. Payment for the services shall be reported within fourteen days of the earlier of first making payments that in the aggregate equal or exceed $2,500 in any year or contracts with an independent contractor providing for payments that in the aggregate equal or exceed $2,500 in any year.
(c) Employers are not required to report the hiring, rehiring or return to work of any person who is an employee or independent contractor of a federal or state agency performing intelligence or counterintelligence functions if the head of the agency has determined that reporting could endanger the safety of the employee or independent contractor or compromise an ongoing investigation or intelligence mission.
(d) An employer that has employees or independent contractors in states other than this state and that transmits reports magnetically or electronically is not required to report to the Bureau for Child Support Enforcement the hiring, rehiring or return to work of any employee or independent contractor if the employer has filed with the secretary of the federal department of health and human services, as required by 42 U.S.C. §653A, a written designation of another state in which it has employees or independent contractors as the reporting state.
(e) Employers shall report by mailing the required information to the Bureau for Child Support Enforcement a copy of the employee's W-4 form; however, an employer or may transmit the information through another means if approved in writing by the Bureau for Child Support Enforcement prior to the transmittal.

The Rev. Michael O. Minors decision to ban fried chicken from his Baptist church was so radical that eventually the White House heard about it.
And, says Minor, People started tasting the home-cooked flavor of (healthier) grilled and baked chicken and started doing it at home.
Minor, a pastor from Mississippi, is now part of First Lady Michelle Obamas Lets Move campaign to battle Americas growing obesity program. He traveled to Colorado this summer, encouraging religious leaders here to take an active role in urging their congregations to care for their physical health as they do their spiritual well-being.
In some ways, Minor was singing to the choir. Colorados population ranks among the healthiest in the nation. On the other hand, one in two residents are overweight or obese, according to LiveWell Colorado.
The Denver-based Center for African-American Health has been reaching out to predominantly black churches for nearly a decade. Executive Director Grant Jones describes how he became inspired while at a conference of several hundred pastors gathered at the Morehouse School of Medicine in Atlanta.
During his remarks to the group, he noted that he had high blood pressure and that his parents had, as well. He asked the audience how many of them or a close relative had high blood pressure. All the hands went up. He asked the same question about diabetes. Nearly every hand was raised.
I thought, what if they had asked this, back home, in their church congregations, Jones said. It was chilling to me.
Now, the Center for African-American Health collaborates with 83 churches in the Denver metro area, including almost all of the large black churches, to bring health programs, screenings and fairs to the congregations.
The church can be a powerful place to do a number of social programs, not the least of which is promoting health, Jones said. There are a lot of churches who are doing important work in their own right.
A spokeswoman for the Diocese of Pueblo, which encompasses 48,000 square miles from southern to western Colorado, said she knows of one church with a health ministry. St. Columba Parish in Durango has had a monthly program, coordinated by parishioners, in place for 15 or 20 years. Father Jim Koenigsfeld said the program generally consists of a post-Mass lunch with a speaker who talks about a specific health issue, such as how people can protect themselves from damaging sun exposure but still get enough Vitamin D, or heart-healthy exercises.
Its important for parishioners to get good information for how best to keep their health, said Koenigsfeld. The younger set are constantly on the move, mountain climbing and kayaking, and the older generation is into walking. We have a great river walk here in (Durango) and they really enjoy that.
The Rev. Eugene Downing, pastor of New Hope Baptist Church in Denver, is one of those churches with a strong faith-based health and wellness initiative. The church offers classes for Zumba dancing, diabetes awareness, healthy cooking and exercise.
People are taking interest in their health, Downing said. (They) are becoming more aware of heart disease and diabetes. In the African-American community, those diseases kill more people than anything.
Jeremy Shaver, executive director of the Interfaith Alliance of Colorado, said hes not aware of other coordinated efforts by Colorado religious leaders to focus on physical health. Rather, health programs in other churches and denominations if they are occurring are likely being done on an individual basis, he said. In his own northeast Denver church, for example, Shavers congregation sponsors a small summer food-box program to donate fresh fruits and vegetables to families in need.
Though the Center for African-American Health has largely been working with Denver-area churches, the organization recently teamed with Friendship Baptist Church in Colorado Springs. This month, the church will be sponsoring diabetes awareness classes.
Friendship Baptists Pastor Clarence Davis said that to him, spiritual health comprises just one-third of the necessary whole. Physical and emotional well-being are also essential for to achieve genuine health, he said.
It is grossly insufficient to preach simply about the afterlife with God, Davis said. It doesnt do the gospel justice, it doesnt do God justice and it certainly doesnt do the people who are suffering right now justice. The health of the congregation is essential. That means getting a good grip on diet what to eat, what not to eat, exercise.
So is Davis ready to take that step to ban fried chicken from his church entirely? Oh, not yet. Thats a tough one, Davis laughed, and shared a story.
Im originally from Detroit and years ago my pastor went on this sudden health food kick where he banned all fried food. We were like, Have you lost your mind? It was (as shocking) as if he were to have said, Jesus is not Lord.
At some point, Davis concluded, I will work up to that, and deliver it to my own congregation: Lets think about being a fried-free zone.

jQuery UI Plugin
33% of Grails users
compile "org.grails.plugins:jquery-ui:1.10.4"
Simply supplies jQuery UI resources, depends on jQuery plugin. Use this plugin to avoid resource duplication and conflicts.
Most common way:
Or, to get the last version:
grails install-plugin jquery-ui
- use the link above to download the archive from Github,
- place it in the lib directory of your Grails project,
- rename it to jquery-ui-<version>
- install the plugin:
grails install-plugin jquery-ui <version>
- or, if you use the Maven 2 integration for Grails:
mvn org.grails:grails-maven-plugin:install-plugin -DpluginName=jquery-ui -DpluginVersion=<version>
OverviewThis plugin supplies jQuery UI resources, and depends on the jQuery plugin to include the core jquery libraries.Use this plugin in your own apps and plugins to avoid resource duplication and conflicts. It includes all the standard widgets and effects, so that you don't have to worry about anything being missing - plus there is no workable "module" system for jQuery UI that I know of at this time.When you have done your initial development and are ready for production, you may want to optimize these resources / use some minifying on them.This plugin supports the Grails Resources framework
Note for developers working with this pluginThis plugin just provides the resources and a tag to include them. It must not include tags to add new functionality / wrap jQ UI features.You must not change the theme shipped with the plugin, and you must include all the standard jQuery UI widgetsIf you need a newer version of jQuery UI than is currently available with this plugin you can update this plugin it in grails SVN yourself. The original author has no desire to manage releases - provided you follow the clear conventions set out, all users of this plugin will be happy! Be my guest and release new versions as and when - just don't break anything for existing users. That means:
IMPORTANT: The version number of the plugin and the jquery ui distribution is not always the same. Sometimes you have plugin point releases to fix problems. As a result it does not automatically use the plugin's version number to insert the correct jquery ui resources. When changing the jquery ui resource versions included in the plugin source, you must also change the JQUERYUI_VERSION constant in jQueryUiGrailsPlugin.groovy - or the jqui:resources tag will not pull in the correct css and js files.
- Always include jqueryui resources that include all widgets and effects
- Always include the default theme as ui-lightness
- Don't add any functionality tags to this plugin
- Only update the jquery core library dependency when absolutely necessary, i.e. when jquery ui requires it.
ConventionsThe version number of this plugin must always follow the version number of the jQuery UI version it bundles, with possible 4th-level point releases for patches/iterations of the plugin with the same jQuery library.E.g. the first release of this plugin is 1.8 - because it ships jQuery UI 1.8. If jQuery UI upgrades to 1.8.2 or similar, this plugin would need to be upgraded to use it and use the version number 1.8.2. If there was a problem with the grails plugin release, this might change to 220.127.116.11 or 126.96.36.199 etc.The key part is that any apps/plugins can install or dependsOn "jquery-ui" of a given version e.g. 1.8 to pull in that version of jQuery UI.This plugin must dependsOn the minimum version of jQuery required by the jQuery UI version. E.g. in this release that is jQuery 1.3.2+ which is a separate grails plugin (18.104.22.168) that also matches this versioning convention
Using jQuery UI with the Resources frameworkThis plugin integrates fully with the Grails resources framework. By installing this plugin you automatically get modules declared for jQuery UI and also for jQuery (because of Grails transitive plugin dependencies).The modules available are:
- jquery-ui - The core jQuery UI code, which automatically depends on query.
- jquery-theme - The default jQuery 'lightness" theme. The jQuery-UI module depends on this module automatically. You can override the CSS file of this resource using the Resources framework. The CSS resource's id is "theme". Alternatively you can override the dependsOn of 'jquery-ui' to depend on some other module you define containing your theme.
- jquery-ui-dev - The non-minified version of jQuery for development mode.
Usage with the Resources frameworkSimple add the following to your GSP or site mesh layout:
<r:require module="jquery-ui"/>
Overriding the Default ThemeIf you are using the jquery-ui plugin with the Resources Framework, you can easily override the jquery-theme module to use your own custom jQuery theme. See Resources Framework Documentation for more details.
Everything else is done for you. You do not need any of the legacy tags or configuration specified in the rest of this documentation.
grails.resources.modules = { … overrides { 'jquery-theme' { resource id:'theme', url:'/css/path/to/jquery-ui-1.8.17.custom.css' } } }
Legacy Tags
These tags are only for developers not using the Grails Resources frameworkThere is one tag - <jqui:resources/> - which pulls in the resources needed. It does not currently pull in the core jQuery resources, you should use the <g:javascript lib="jquery"/> tag for that.You can override the theme used by jQuery UI by specifying the theme attribute with a value of the theme name, and the theme will then be located by pulling it from your app using the path:<appcontext>/jquery-ui/themes/<themename>/jquery-ui-<ver>.custom.cssor, by using the themeDir attribute:<appcontext>/<themeDir>/<themename>/jquery-ui-<ver>.custom.cssAlternatively you may want to specify the full URI to the theme CSS so that your custom themes work even if the version of jquery ui plugin you use changes. To do this, specify themeCss:
<jqui:resources themeCss="/path/to/your/custom-1.8.3.css"/>
Like any config param you can make those below environment specific (e.g minified=false for DEV, and cdn='googlecode' for production)
minifiedYou can choose if the minified version of the .js shoud be used (or not) by using the following config parameterjqueryUi.minified = true|false ;default: serve minified
Google CDNIf yout want to load the resources from the Google CDN (which makes a lot of sense for high traffic sites), you can specifiyjqueryUi.cdn = 'googlecode'default: loading from CDN is disabled.
Date Picker exampleHere is the code for a gsp view using datePicker (see reference at http://jqueryui.com/demos/datepicker/ ):testDatePicker.gsp
Don't forget to add a def to your controller to test it
<html> <head> <title>Simple GSP page</title> <g:javascript library="jquery" /> <jqui:resources theme="darkness" /> <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function() { $("#datepicker").datepicker({dateFormat: 'yy/mm/dd'}); }) </script> </head> <body> <div> <p> Between <input type="text" id="datepicker"> </p> </div> </body> </html>
Where the theme ui-darkness have been downloaded from the jquery themeroller page and the directory
def testDatePicker = { }
css/ui-darkness has been extracted from the zip file to the directory
home/xxx/myProject/web-app/jquery-ui/themes/ .N.B. : you may have to rename the file
/home/xxx/myProject/web-app/jquery-ui/themes/ui-darkness/jquery-ui-1.8.1.custom.css to match with your jquery version (e.g., in this case,
jquery-ui-1.8.1.custom.css had to be renamed to
jquery-ui-1.8.custom.css ).

I just wanted to share these images of Woolbeding, the garden, or rather series of gardens, created by the Hon. Simon Sainsbury and Stewart Grimshaw.
Simon Sainsbury leased the house and garden from the National Trust in 1973, and together with his partner Stewart Grimshaw he gradually transformed the garden.
An article by Stephen Lacey in the Sunday Times describes the development of the garden in some detail.
Various designers were involved, including Lanning Roper (1912-83), Philip Jebb (1927-95) and Julian and Isabel Bannerman.
Simon Sainsbury died in 2006, but Stewart Grimshaw still uses Woolbeding as a weekend home and continues to be involved in the garden.
Although Woolbeding is still a private garden, visits can be pre-booked. More about the history of the house and garden can be found on the Parks and Gardens UK website.

Access to good quality school sport may still be a "postcode lottery", campaigners have suggested.
The Youth Sport Trust said it is concerned that while some schools are offering youngsters a wide range of opportunities on the sports field, others are still struggling to give their pupils the same chances.
It said it is launching a new survey to examine the quality and providing of PE and school sport across England, adding that there has been no national survey on the subject since 2010.
The poll, which comes at the start of National School Sport week, will look at rates of participation in school sport as well as the value schools put on PE, the Trust said.
Chief executive John Steele said: "National School Sport Week is the ideal time to shine a spotlight on the importance of PE and school sport. We work with many schools that share our belief that a good PE and sport offer can raise the achievement and attainment of all young people.
"However, we do have significant concerns that the level of provision across the country is not consistent, which could be resulting in a postcode lottery of provision.
"Our survey will investigate this as it risks leaving some young people without the high-quality experience they deserve."
The survey comes just days after Ofsted warned that too many pupils are being denied the chance to take part in competitive sport by state schools who treat it as an "optional extra".
In a new report, it said children's education was poorer if they were deprived of the chance to compete.
A Department for Education spokeswoman said: "We are giving primary schools over £150m a year specifically for sport and PE. A typical school will receive £9,250, enough to pay for a specialist PE teacher for a day a week to work alongside existing staff. This is a huge boost to school sport and follows our creation of the Sainsbury's School Games - an annual, nationwide school sport competition.
"Too few children have been taking part in competitive sport in recent years. From September, our new curriculum will deliver competitive sport at all ages. The new curriculum will also encourage pupils to get involved in sport outside of school hours."

Canada's men's U-20 national team has opened the four-team Marbella Cup on a good note, winning 2-1 over the United States in their first match on Wednesday. Vancouver Whitecaps FC striker Caleb Clarke scored the winning goal for the Red and White, while midfielder Bryce Alderson started and played 82 minutes, with attacker Ben Fisk starting and playing the full 90 minutes.
"There is a lot of character on this team," said Canadian U-20 head coach Nick Dasovic. "The camp is looking good and I am positive about this bunch of guys. We have a good thing going and we just need to keep carrying it through for the next couple of games."
Canada took the first-half lead through midfielder Samuel Piette in the 33rd minute. Piette, who earned his first senior cap with Canada in a scoreless draw against the U.S. on June 3 at BMO Field in Toronto, received the ball off a corner kick near the left edge of the penalty box and found space near the goal. Piette fired a hard shot past U.S. U-20s goalkeeper Kendall McIntosh and into the net for a 1-0 lead.
The U.S. found the equalizer off the head of forward Mario Rodriguez in the 75th minute. Following a strong run down the flank by midfielder Marc Pelosi, the Liverpool youth player cut back near the corner flag to create space and delivered a cross into the box that found Rodriguez six yards from goal to tie the match 1-1 with 15 minutes remaining.
The lead wouldn't hold as Clarke received the ball near the top of the box after Canada forced a turnover in the U.S. zone and slotted a low shot past McIntosh for the game-winner in the 80th minute.
Canada outshot the U.S. 10-9 overall, including 4-3 on goal and the sides combined to commit 35 fouls. Canada was issued three yellow cards to just one for the U.S.
Azerbaijan, Scotland and USA are the other three teams competing in the tournament, with Canada's following matches on October 12 (Azerbaijan) and October 15 (Scotland). The Canadian training camp is based at the Marbella Football Center in Marbella, Spain.

The Program
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation's Legal Intern Program provides valuable and challenging professional opportunities for outstanding law school students. Our goal is to provide our interns (law clerks) with a better understanding of the FDIC's role in our financial system while providing an opportunity for public service. Our law clerks are assigned to a variety of projects within one section of the Legal Division that will provide significant legal experience.
Why Join the FDIC?
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation has stood strong and has continued to fulfill its mission of standing behind the insured deposits of its member banks and supporting confidence in the nation's financial system.
The FDIC was born of the Great Depression of the late 1920s and early 1930s. More than 9,000 banks closed between the stock market crash of October 1929 and March of 1933, when President Franklin Delano Roosevelt took office. For all practical purposes, the nation's banking system had shut down completely even before President Roosevelt - less than 48 hours after his inauguration - declared a "banking holiday" suspending all banking activities until stability could be restored. Among the actions taken by Congress to bring order to the system was the creation of the FDIC in June 1933. The intent was to provide a federal government guarantee of deposits so that customers' funds, within certain limits, would be safe and available to them on demand. Since the start of FDIC insurance on January 1, 1934, not one depositor has lost a cent of insured funds as a result of a failure. The FDIC sign - posted in insured financial institutions across the country - has become a symbol of confidence.
As an FDIC law clerk, you will contribute to maintaining confidence in our nation's financial system and learn financial institutions regulatory law from the inside out. In addition, you may be exposed to areas of law atypical to most government practice that will serve you well wherever your career takes you.
Legal Practice at the FDIC
The practice of law at the FDIC reflects the broad nature of the FDIC's work as well as its unique statutory powers. For example, because the FDIC has independent litigating authority, our attorneys practice before virtually all courts. FDIC attorneys develop case strategy, write the briefs and appear in court for arguments. The FDIC's Legal Division is a full service corporate practice providing not only litigation, but transactional; regulatory; and administrative legal services to the Corporation. As a law clerk, you will assist our attorneys in one or more of the following areas including:
Bank regulatory and consumer compliance matters
- Developing, drafting and providing legal opinions on legislation, regulations and policy statements relating to insured depository institutions.
- Providing guidance on deposit insurance coverage, assessments of insured depository institutions, Federal securities laws, and consumer laws.
- Providing guidance and advice to foreign countries that are developing deposit insurance programs.
- Working closely with bank and review examiners to ensure bank compliance with banking and consumer protection laws and regulations and the continued safety and soundness of insured depository institutions.
- Preparing and litigating enforcement cases before administrative law judges and in federal courts.
Litigation and bank receivership matters
- Litigating multimillion dollar actions against directors and officers, attorneys and accountants when negligence and malpractice contributed to the downfall of banks.
- Managing some of the largest civil commercial litigation cases brought by the federal government.
- Handling complex commercial litigation matters such as those arising out of bond claims, and commercial collection cases.
- Developing resolution, receivership and marketing strategies for failed banks involving hundreds of millions of dollars in deposits and loans.
- Coordinating the FDIC's anti-fraud efforts with the Department of Justice, prosecutors and FBI agents across the country in the investigation and prosecution of criminal conduct in the banking and savings and loan industries.
- Defending the FDIC against challenges to its statutory authority and appeals from its administrative determinations.
Corporate practice
- Providing legal opinions on a wide range of topics including statutory powers of the FDIC, the role of the FDIC as a federal agency, and corporate governance.
- Handling labor and employment issues including administrative hearings on employee-related matters and negotiations with the bargaining unit representative.
- Handling FDIC contracting, including contracting for the services of outside counsel.
- Managing Legal Division technology.
- Corporate secretary duties for the Board of Directors.

For my last 2012 meal in Italy, I was the guest of one of my best friends from my university days there, Stefano (you may remember him from my post on his Milanese "urban botanical" project which he has now aggregated on Pinterest).
Stefano is a member of Milan's intelligentsia and is well connected in the city's design, fashion, and publishing cliques. He had invited interior designer Gavino Falchi to join us. Gavino graciously offered to bring dinner with him for our Sunday evening repast.
The pièce de résistance of Gavino's menu was this sformato, accompanied by vintage Luigi Caccia Dominioni silver serving utensils (when he arrived, Gavino was wearing an overcoat from Ugo Mulas' personal wardrobe, given to him by Ugo's widow).
A sformato is an Italian casserole, generally made with grated Parmigiano Reggiano, beaten eggs, and various ingredients that have been cooked in a bain-marie and then turned out from the casserole pan or mold (hence the term sformato, meaning literally "turned out from a mold," a designation which only began to appear in Italian gastronomic literature in the first decades of the twentieth-century, even though such casseroles were already popular in Italian cooking by the second half of the nineteenth century; the timpani in Cavalcanti's 1837 Cucina teorica-pratica are a precursor to the twentieth-century sformato).
I imagine that the term sformato didn't become popular until cooking molds were widely produced and available in Italy in the country's era of industrialization.
Gavino had made his with the classic base, using zucchine as the "pasta" and adding finely ground pork to the batter. It was as delicious as it was beautiful.
He also made this excellent rolled and stuffed wild turkey breast with roast potatoes, a dish that you often find in northern Italian homes on Sundays (Gavino is Sardinian by birth, Milanese by osmosis).
My good friend Michele Scicolone doesn't include any recipes for sformati in her just released recipe book, The Mediterranean Slow Cooker, although many of the entries resemble or evoke the sformato model (the book is the lastest in a series that she has published with Houghton Mifflin Harcourt; her Italian Slow Cooker does include a number of sformato recipes).
Tracie P and I just received our copy of the book (which came out last week) and we're geeked to dive in (we're big slow cookers here in the Parzen household).
If you're not familiar with Michele's work, she's one of the top Italian cookery book authors working in the field today and she's one of the best cooks I've ever met. The thing I love about her recipes is their precision: Michele grew up in an era of food publishing when recipes were tested over and over and over again. As an editor for Ladies Home Journal, she told me, every recipe had to be executed no fewer than three times before it made it into the magazine.
She also happens to be married to one of my Italian wine mentors, the inimitable Charles Scicolone, an Obi-Wan Kenobi of an Italian wine universe that has been dominated, sadly, by the "dark side" of the force in recent decades.
They're some of my best friends in New York and I'm looking forward to seeing them when I travel there later this month.
Stay tuned!

Book of Saints – Augustine of Hippo
AUGUSTINE of HIPPO (Saint) Bishop (August 28) Doctor of the Church. (5th century) He was born at Tagasta, a town of Numidia (near Algiers in Africa), A.D. 354. In his youth he went headlong into vice, and all but became a Manichaean. He taught Rhetoric at Tagasta, Carthage, Rome and Milan. In the latter city he met Saint Ambrose and attended his sermons, which, with the aid of Saint Simplician, a priest, brought about his conversion. He was baptised by Saint Ambrose in the presence of his holy mother, Saint Monica (A.D. 387). On his return to Africa he lived in solitude for three years, and was then consecrated Bishop of Hippo. In this high station he displayed great zeal and learning in repelling the attacks of the Pagans, Manichaeans, Arians, Donatists and Pelagians. His writings fill many folio volumes, his best-known work being the City of God and his Confessions. He died A.D. 430 in his seventy-sixth year, and was buried at Hippo in the church of Saint Stephen. In the year 498, owing to the irruption of the Vandals, his relics were transferred to Sardinia by the exiled African Bishops, and interred at Cagliari. When Sardinia fell into the hands of the Saracens, his relics were carried to Pavia (A.D. 772) and placed in the triple crypt of the Basilica of Saint Peter.
