Some solutions still have debug-mode compiling enabled in their related web.config files. Debug-mode compiling can cause performance problems for any ASP.NET application. In particular, the following debug-mode behaviors impact Notification Server performance:
- The compilation of ASP.NET pages takes longer (since some batch optimizations are disabled).
- This can be seen in the initial viewing of each Notification Server console page.
- Code can execute slower (since some additional debug paths are enabled).
- Much more memory is used within the application at runtime.
- This is of particular importance on Notification Servers with 2 GB of physical memory, and large client facing servers with multiple Altiris solutions enabled.
- HTTP Runtime execution timeouts are enforced
Additional information about debug mode is available at ScottGu's Blog
Note: The Altiris Notification Server 6.x utilizes ASP.NET 1.1. If you're using Notification Server 7.x, you can configure this for all applications in a single config by changing the the machine.config to use the following setting. A tool for 7.x is also attached to this article.
<deployment retail="true"/>
Manual Resolution
Make the following modification to each web.config file that is part of the Altiris installation (\Program Files\Altiris). The change will be implemented as soon as another request to the related page occurs. In most cases, this will involve a visit to the related configuration or task Notification Server console page.
|Before (web.config)
| <compilation
debug="true" />
|After (web.config)
debug="false" />
From a command line, execute the attached utility (DisableWebDebug.exe). It must be copied to the local file system on the Notification Server to meet .NET security requirements. All output will be sent to the console window, and important items will also be sent to the Notification Server log. Any modified web.config file will first be duplicated as "config.original" in the same folder. The utility offers two modes.
To perform a check to see which web.config files will be modified, use the following command:
DisableWebDebug -check
To update the web.config files, use the following command:
DisableWebDebug -fix
By default, the utility will check the registry for the primary Notification Server installation directory, such as C:\Program Files\Altiris. If necessary, a second parameter can be used to specify an alternate search path as depicted below:
DisableWebDebug -fix "H:\Altiris2"
It is not necessary to restart any services, automatic recompilation will occur upon the next related Web page request.
For some other specific applications of this, see article 25655.

JT Hodges, 'JT Hodges' – Album Review
JT Hodges' collision of varied influences make his self-titled, debut album a strange — but not unenjoyable — listen. Lyrically, the best songs on 'JT Hodges' feel strange and somehow forbidden, like a journey through the wardrobe, or adventure to a new world. He teeters on the axis of cool and too cool for the room.
This has resulted in two unsuccessful singles in 'Hunt You Down' and 'Goodbyes Made You Mine.' Both are total originals, with the latter being the best song of the 10 on the album. The new single, 'Sleepy Little Town,' also misses the target. It's a good story, but relentlessly depressing.
"Everybody's proud of Mary Lou / She got a full ride to a private school / Gonna be a doctor or a lawyer some day / She's 17 and three months late," he sings before a chorus that goes, "When the lights come on in a sleepy little town / There ain't no secrets when the truth comes out." There's a Bruce Springsteen feel with the "Whoa-ohs," and even the celebrated sadness of the story.
The overload of imagery is something like an acid trip. Every character and setting is sharp, colorful and vivid, with uncompromising structure and direction. The bluesy 'Green Eyes and Red Sunglasses' offers a stomping rhythm section while telling the story of a good looking woman who's ready for trouble.
"Cross legged on the hood of a jet-black Chevrolet / High heels hanging off her toes / Lord let her look my way / With them green eyes and red sunglasses."
The best ballad, 'When I Stop Crying,' is partnered with cutting electric guitar solo. 'Rather Be Wrong Than Lonely' is a total throwback. It sounds like something Hodges would have had to fight Elvis Presley for 50 years ago. Only by adding a weave of steel guitar is the rocker-in-disguise able to make this a country song. It's an effective first cut on the album, though, because it sets the stage for a wild ride that one can't fully evaluate until it's long over.
Songs which don't really work include 'Leaving Me Later' and 'Give It One More Night,' but this is only because they're forgotten about amongst more exotic offerings. 'Rhythm of the Radio' might be Hodges' best shot at a radio hit, but he's is clearly a man that prides himself on doing things a little differently. That's a double-edged sword.

The Ransom Center seeks to raise $30,000 to restore and preserve five original costumes from Gone With The Wind (1939). Donations to restore the costumes can be made online
The Ransom Center holds the film collection of David O. Selznick, a well-known and admired producer of Hollywood's "Golden Age" of the 1930s and 1940s. Selznick's production of Gone With The Wind is considered one of the quintessential films of the period, receiving 10 Academy Awards.
Among the more than 5,000 boxes of materials in the Selznick collection are five original costumes from Gone With The Wind: character Scarlett O'Hara's Green Curtain Dress, Green Velvet Dressing Gown, Burgundy Ball Gown, Blue Velvet Peignoir and Wedding Dress. Most of the costumes, all worn by actress Vivien Leigh, are in too fragile condition to be exhibited.
"An historical garment in a museum collection is often most compelling when it is displayed on a mannequin, and yet each time a fragile costume is removed from storage, handled and placed on a dress form, that garment is at risk," said Jill Morena, Collection Assistant for Costumes and Personal Effects at the Ransom Center. "Conservation work and custom supports for storage and display are essential components in ensuring that the Gone With The Wind costumes can be enjoyed for years to come."
Donations made to the Ransom Center will allow for the restoration of the original dresses and the purchase of protective housing and custom-fitted mannequins to allow for proper exhibition. The Center hopes to display the costumes in 2014 as part of an exhibition celebrating the 75th anniversary of Gone With The Wind and to be able to loan the dresses to museums internationally.
"Nothing evokes the human element in film quite like the costume," said Steve Wilson, Curator of Film at the Ransom Center. "A character's social and economic class, for example, can be represented through the style and quality of her clothes, shoes, and jewelry, and whether those clothes are clean and fresh or tattered and soiled. And not only must the costume support and enhance the actor and director's interpretation of the character, but it must also allow for the actor's movement and withstand the rigors of shooting. The appreciation of costume design can deepen our understanding of film as an art form and reflection of our culture."
Concerning the creation of costumes for Gone With The Wind, costume designer Walter Plunkett had remarked, "I don't think it was my best work or even the biggest thing I did… But that picture, of course, will go on forever, and that green dress, because it makes a story point, is probably the most famous costume in the history of motion pictures."

That is what I disliked about the show. It has no development for its cast and starts as a good horror mystery and ends as a social drama against weak established social prejuice around bijins. I got the same stuff in Interview with a Vampire in a lot less time and in a lot more entertaining way.

Then why did you sit through the whole thing, then? I wouldn't torture myself by watching an ENTIRE series of something I didn't like. Such a waste of time. Unless you're a "I can NOT make a final determination until I've seen ALL of it" kind of person, then I can understand (somewhat).

From what I gather roriconfan didn't find it terrible (the grade says "average") he just didn't find it memorable,considering i've seen him hand out 2/10 and 3/10 , 5/10 isn't such a bad score.

It still seems like an awful lot of trouble to go through for an anime that you could tell from fairly early on enough you felt was going to be mediocre/average... But hey, that's just me. :x

^ This is such a faulty logic. Why can't people watch a series they don't love? I in particular watched Shiki so to write a review. Or is it forbidden to write a negative review? Or mention a negative opinion?
I also read all of Harry Poter in order to have proof of how NOT great it is. Why can't the not-fans of something have the right to watch or talk about that something? Why have closed circles of fanboys who throw out all those who don't worship the something and hype it all over the internet? Are anime religions? (don't you dare mention Haruhism)
What is even worse is when the fans of something use double edge knife no matter what you do. First they will say "If you don't like it, don't watch it" but then will boost the "You can't judge how bad it is if you haven't watched it." And when you finally do watch it and have examples of why you didn't like it will again say "Get a life and go watch something you like instead of wasting it on something you hate."
This religious logic to anime is so infuriating, I think I will write a review about it and rate a 2/10
... oh wait ...

Rori, I think the main problem at hand with your review is it is filled with "factual" this is stupid, this is bad this is stupid, this is retarded etc. or "I didn't like this so it is terrible"
Whether they are major fans, or just kind of liked it when your use direct insults and state them as if there is no possible alternative thought, your going to make people mad.
A review is opinion yes, even if you wrote bad review with more careful words you'd get people going against you (obviously, when opinions differ it happens) but re-reading it you were often straight up hostile which is going to stir hate. Also, take into account most people still reading this thread will be people who were fans/supporters or "like more than dislike" the show.
I'm not expecting a professional review here, but your frequent re-use of strong language and direct insults I am not the least bit surprised you are getting this kind of response.
|2011-01-12, 20:06
|Link #2094
It's ok, I am not saying the review is unbiased; just saying the anime has lots of elements that as good as they are in theory or inside your mind, as actual storytelling it is very bad. And I am not going to be gentle about it.
And seriously, there is no character development, outside of two-three people. Let's not confuse exposure with development. There was zero difference in being human or Shiki.
In fact, Shiki suck (pun) if they can't even stand sun light and can only feed on human blood. What kind of a plan having a whole village of them would accomplsh? Feeling sympathy for one another? THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE CHARACTER WISE.
And why are werewolves the servants of Shiki if they are far more powerful and can move during day? They should be the masters. They are like master vampires with so much plus.
And why was that human serving the Shiki if he wanted to be one yet couldn't? And why did he shot dead his own werewolf sevant who wanted to help him? And what did the village doctor want to accomplish that was so surprising to him in the end? OF COURSE AND THE VILLAGE WAS DESTROEYD YOU IDIOT, WHAT ELSE WOULD HAVE HAPPEND?
The story is full of plot holes and nonesense and if you care about that, of course and it feels bad when critisizing it. But if you don't care about storytelling but "good in theory only" stories and "cool / dramatic characters" on paper, then yes it is very good.
In other news, Interview with a Vampire is as I said a great example of what Shiki failed to have. Exposure - development - reasoning - action - good pacing

He decided to serve Sunako as a choice,that's made pretty clear,it's not like the anime is saying Sunako is somehow forcing him to serve her or that he has to because he's a werewolf.

2. It's specifically stated that Sunako doesn't see the Shiki as incomplete jinrou but that they are allies (or something along those lines, if anyone could fine the exact line that would be great). For Tatsumi it's not a master-servant thing, he respects Sunako and cares for her and that's why he takes care of her.
3. Because he loved Chizuru and love makes you do crazy things.
4. As I stated earlier in the thread, I saw a bite mark on him so it would make sense that Natsuno bit him and instructed him to take down any Shiki that he saw.
5. Pretty sure that Doc wasn't expecting the village to literally explode into flame.

Hope I'm not coming out too awkward, I have a hard timing wording things how i want to I end up getting long winded.
As for the doctor, he started to drown in his hatred for the shiki and did everything he could to see them destroyed, I would go so far as to say his want to see them eradicated even overruled his desire to save people. He even turned a blind eye to what some of his allies were beginning to do. I don't think it was surprising more than his leave of sense finally returning to him and realizing that he should have known it would end up that way.
That's how I feel any way, hoping the manga will shed more light on that.
The point I have been trying to stress about the review is, when you write a review, good or bad, people will disagree. In a thread that mostly be perused by fans, most of those people will disagree with a bad review. Further when write a review with your impressions of the show, it is going to leave people an impression of you based on how you write it. Especially if your opinions are very harsh like your own you should be more careful in how you word things (this post of yours is a good example of better language use compared to the first). If you think it sucked and was terrible, then you should write that but do it in a way that doesn't cause a knee-jerk reaction.
Weird example sorry but lets say...
You have a lemonade stand, I throw the cup at the ground and say "your lemonade is *beep* terrible". That's asking for a fight, even if it was true.
Rather I should say (aside form not throwing the cup at the ground, perhaps tossing it to the can to make the point) "This stuff tastes terrible, probably because *problems here*" I am much more likely to spark an intelligent conversation that way, while still getting my point across that it was just bad.
Put simply: Even if you vehemently hate it, sound intelligent about it to provoke more intelligent responses. Hostility will be responded to with hostility.
I've dragged this out long enough, hope I conveyed my point in an intelligible manner, every time I type and retype what I think I seem think something is missing...

Sunako just wanted to build her own family and lived happily. She didn't want to escape anymore. Another people in Kanemasa also shared this vision. There is a reason that I can think of why they didn't turn the man into Shiki even if he wanted to be one. If I remember correctly, he stated that he was responsible about there authority and real estate. It's actually reasonable that they didn't turn him to Shiki because his work needed to deal with human in daylight. There is no guarantee that he could become werewolf or even shiki. He might just die that's all.
Werewolf is more powerful than Shiki. But if you think only this and declare "ZOMG, WEREWOLF SHOULD RULE THE SHIKI. THEY ARE MORE POWERFUL. WHY DO THEY FOLLOW SUNAKO. THIS MUST BE A PLOTHOLE!" That's because you look at it only one side. It's not all about power level. Shiki is liked human. They have allies. They have friends. They have emotion. This series is not all about the individual. The life of villagers are reflected from the perspective of each main characters. Each moment leads to another moment. A peaceful and kind villager turn into a murderer. That's how the villager in this series developed in the end.

I've read about and written quite a bit about running and exercising barefooted in recent years and, frankly, felt like I have exhausted the subject. Besides, it seems so 2009.
In a nutshell, proponents say the modern exercise shoe is the root of nearly all injuries because its cushioning and built-up heel allow us to have a poor, inefficient gait, such as heel striking. Opponents say the modern shoe is needed for modern times when the human foot is exposed to so many different stresses and unnatural expectations, such as all that's involved with running 26.2 miles on pavement.
But what caught my attention was when a local podiatrist, who belongs to a profession not exactly endeared to the minimalist approach, came forward saying he was a believer in bare feet and certain shoes that mimic walking or running barefooted.
In fact, Dr. Adam Brown of Carolina Foot Specialists is such an advocate that he ran last Thanksgiving's Turkey Day Run 5K in bare feet, with temperatures in the 40s, and is preparing to run the Cooper River Bridge Run 10K sans shoes on April 6.
His experiment of one, he admits, along with research out of Harvard University and other reputable institutions has changed the way he practices medicine.
That change originated in 2004, when the former College of Charleston baseball player trained for his first marathon and became attuned with the body's ability to respond to physical stresses by adapting and getting stronger.
Two years later, however, Brown starting having nagging injuries, including a daily ache on the outside of his foot.
"It wasn't debilitating. I tried every orthotic and every shoe and nothing worked. As a podiatrist, it was so frustrating," says Brown, adding the injury was bad enough that he gave himself a cortisone injection.
As the shoe industry responded to demand for minimalist shoes, Brown tried a pair of Vivobarefootwork shoes and was stunned with what happened next.
"Within four days, the pain was gone," says Brown, noting that minimalist shoes allow increased "sensory input" that self-corrected his gait.
As his foot strengthened, he started running barefooted and started prescribing a form of gradual barefoot therapy to most patients, though not diabetics with neuropathy or anyone with a painful gait or limp.
"I had a belief that anything can be healed and strengthened up, but we have to let the body do it naturally," says Brown, who is 41. "Everyone loves to be barefoot, but we've been convinced over the last 20 years that we have to wear shoes in the house and that our feet are weak."
But there are caveats for retraining your feet: Namely, it has to be gradual and after any aggravated symptoms have been eliminated.
Then, he suggests going barefooted for 15 minutes a day inside your house for a week. If all goes well, double it every consecutive week.
His experiment of one has now turned into hundreds, as he successfully has prescribed barefoot therapy to patients with conditions such as the ubiquitous plantar fasciitis.
"If we can get you better and then build you up (with barefoot walking or running), you can be without pain," insists Brown.

Kilroy Wins Final Day Super Tight Battle To Take 2013 Audi Melges 20 North American Championship Title
15 September 2013
Toronto, Canada - Congratulations are in full order for John Kilroy aboard Samba Pa Ti as he and his crew are now 2013 Audi Melges 20 North American Champions. After an intense weekend battle with second overall Michael Kiss on Bacio, Kilroy won the event on countback as these two, very determined, very fierce competitors finished dead even in points with 22 each. Richard Davies aboard Section 16 placed third.
For the round of racing, although the wind pundits had predicted a breeze, a thick cloud cover persisted throughout the day preventing any thermal build and kept the breeze in the 5 to 8 knot range. Excitement for the penultimate race built and an early charge to the line resulted in a general recall. In the subsequent restart, event leader Kilroy was among those called OCS. Kiss however, second overall in the series, had a clean start and sailed to a second in Race Seven setting up a duel for the championship in the final race.
Teams match raced to the first weather mark driving each other deep in the fleet. Kiss led by a boat length at the first rounding. After two more legs of close racing the positions had switched at the second weather mark rounding, where Kilroy held on to cross the finish ahead of Kiss.
This resulted in a tie for the overall with Kilroy ultimately taking the tie-breaker by virtue of one more second place.
Super thanks to PRO Taran Teague, and most especially the Port Credit Yacht Club for providing the great facilities and on-the-water support to the Audi Melges 20 Class. The International Audi Melges 20 Class, in particular would like to thank Ms. Rhonda Joyce and Mike Wolfs. Without them, this event would not have been possible. Thank you both!

From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...Most cooks who live in the Pacific Northwest have an impressive array of recipes for salmon. The collection comes with the territory. Salmon is abundant here and while it's not inexpensive, even wild varieties are reasonably priced and can be found in all large markets. That means that most of us consume a lot of salmon in the course of a year. My family has a special fondness for miso-glazed salmon and I prepare it often. The glaze is delicious, but its Asian overtones limit the types of dishes that can accompany the fish. While long grain white rice is a logical and perfectly serviceable choice, it gets boring very quickly. Several years ago, Gourmet Magazine featured a recipe for jasmine rice that solved my problems. The rice, which is grown primarily in Thailand, is long grained and has a distinctive nutty taste. It also has a rich aroma that makes it a favorite of many rice connoisseurs. It, unfortunately, can be difficult to make and can become gummy if not properly cooked. The trick to making it successfully lies in thoroughly rinsing the grains before cooking, and then restricting the amount of water in which the grains are steamed or boiled. In Thailand, the rice is actually wrapped in a bundle and steamed over boiling water. Alternately, the rice and water should be added to the pot at the same time and brought to a rolling boil before the heat is reduced to the slow simmer that will complete the cooking. The rice should be allowed to sit, covered, in its pan for about 5 minutes after being taken off the heat. It can then be fluffed with forks and other ingredients, such as scallion greens and peanuts, can be added. This is a really lovely way to prepare rice to serve with Asian dishes. It is not hard to make once you get the hang of things. Obviously, a rice maker would make short work of this, but not all of us have one in our kitchens. This recipe is meant for pioneers. Here's how the rice is made.
Jasmine Rice with Scallion Greens and Salted Peanuts...from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite inspired by Gourmet magazine
2 cups jasmine rice
2 cups water
1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup salted roasted peanuts (2 1/2 oz), finely chopped
2/3 cup thinly sliced scallion greens
1) Wash rice in several changes of cold water in a bowl until water is almost clear, then drain rice well in a sieve.
2) Bring rice, water, and broth to a boil in a 3- to 4-quart heavy saucepan, then reduce heat to low and cook, covered, until rice is tender and water is absorbed, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork, then stir in peanuts and scallion greens. Yield: 8 servings.

Madison inaugurates sixth president, Jonathan R. Alger
Board of Visitors Rector Joseph Funkhouser places the chain of office over President Jonathan R. Alger's head during the inauguration ceremony.
With all the pomp and pageantry worthy of such an occasion, James Madison University inaugurated Jonathan R. Alger as the sixth president in its 105-year history during a ceremony Friday morning at the JMU Convocation Center that drew thousands of students, faculty, staff, alumni, parents, community members, local officials and state dignitaries.
During his inaugural address, President Alger expressed his gratitude for the vision and leadership of his predecessors, each of whom "opened the doors of opportunity" for generations of Madison students. "Indeed, opening doors has been a theme at this institution ever since our founding," he said.
Drawing on feedback and experiences from his nationwide listening tour with various stakeholders framed around the simple question "Why Madison?", President Alger outlined his goals for making JMU the national model for the engaged university in the 21st century and encouraged everyone in the Madison family to "dream big together."
"We are a community committed to learning, with a conviction that all people are interconnected," Alger said, adding that this combination of learning and engagement is captured in JMU's mission statement to prepare students to be "educated and enlightened citizens who lead productive and meaningful lives."
As Madison has evolved from a teacher's school for women to a liberal arts college to a highly respected comprehensive university, it has held fast to its core values of faculty-student interaction, teaching and scholarship, interdisciplinary collaboration and a strong tradition of public service, Alger said.
Going forward, President Alger highlighted the areas in which JMU will invest its energy and resources, beginning with the Madison Future Commission, a group of 150 faculty, staff, students, alumni and members of the Board of Visitors who will shape a new strategic plan that will guide JMU through the year 2020. "This process will include a hard look at the serious realities we face, including new educational technologies, changing demographics, our funding model and issues of access and affordability," he said.
Alger also emphasized the launch of a new initiative, The Madison Collaborative: Ethical Reasoning in Action. Beginning this summer, all incoming JMU students will be taught a set of ethical reasoning skills that they can apply in their personal, professional and civic lives. This same set of skills will be infused in General Education courses, academic majors, residence halls and other co-curricular experiences.
In addition, as the university named for the father of the U.S. Constitution and an advocate for the civil society, JMU will strive to model the kind of civil discourse needed for a well-functioning democratic republic, Alger said. "As a society, too often we seem unable to have thoughtful discussions on the major challenges we face. This must change." Toward that end, JMU will reinvigorate its relationship with Montpelier, the Madison family estate in nearby Orange County, to bring more attention to the life and legacy of James Madison and his wife, Dolley.
"Imagine the societal effect of graduating over 4,000 enlightened citizens annually who possess ethical reasoning skills and understand the founding principles of Madison," Alger said. "We can be that institution."
Echoing concerns raised during the listening tour, Alger said JMU will also commit itself to increasing diversity on campus, not just in race, ethnicity and gender, but also in socioeconomic background, age, religion and disability.
Finally, JMU will partner with the surrounding community to ensure that its programs and services are widely available, and will strengthen its culture of philanthropy, beginning with the upcoming comprehensive fundraising campaign. "We must develop new revenue sources if we are to succeed on the national and international level to which we aspire," he said.
Elected officials, former colleagues and members of the JMU family offered Alger their congratulations and well wishes Friday.
"This is a very special place," said Gov. Bob McDonnell, whose daughter, Rachel, graduated from JMU in 2010. "It has always been, and will always be, not only a place of academic excellence, but also one of student-centered focus. You have built a warm learning environment where young people from all over Virginia and all over the country want to come to learn from excellent faculty. They feel cared for and appreciated and loved and they know that people want them to succeed.
"President Alger understands the enormous potential and opportunity for this university to grow and expand in its programs and create new access to the American Dream," McDonnell said.
Kathleen Curry Santora, chief executive of the National Association of Colleges and University Attorneys, of which Alger served as past president of the board of directors, called JMU's new leader "one of the best listeners I've ever met. …. He listens, he is accessible and he cares deeply about the people with whom he works. And his actions are informed by values."
Richard McCormick, president emeritus at Rutgers University, said as the author of the Supreme Court brief that would become Justice Sandra Day O'Connor's historic opinion on universities' use of affirmative action, Alger has helped ensure that "the doors to colleges remain open to men and women for whom they might otherwise be closed."
Community leaders Ted Byrd, the mayor of Harrisonburg, and Fred Eberly, chairman of the Rockingham County Board of Supervisors, also offered their congratulations to President Alger, as did members of the JMU family, including Alumni Association President Jamie Jones Miller ('99); Matt Klein, president of the Student Government Association; Richard and Tina Turner of the JMU Parents Council; David McGraw, speaker of the Faculty Senate; and Christina Landes on behalf of JMU staff.
"So let us go forward from here confident with the knowledge that we can accomplish great things together," Alger concluded. "The James Madison University of the future will not be identical to what we see today. We must be prepared to understand and adapt to a rapidly changing world. But we should also recognize that we are well positioned for this moment. Let's take time to reflect on what is most important in our lives, and let's dream big together."

Training and Racing: The weeks will fade away...
Week Thirty Four: Build
Time: 12 h 34 min
Dist.: 366 km
That is about sixty five percent of what I was supposed to do that week. I was too tired to ride after an early shift, my N&B injuries didn't allow me out or I let something else get in the way... Simple!
What ever the reason might have been at the time, I didn't ride enough and not doing so made me feel terrible. I can see the weeks fade away and before I know, the big race will be right in front of me.
I raced on the weekend and won the club Road Race Championship. Sadly, most of the riders in the Masters 5 category didn't show up and only three of us lined up for the 50 km race.
My win wasn't a sweet one, I must say. I had a good preparation throughout the year, I won the club ITT championship convincingly but I had no fun in this race. I don't want to be disrespectful here but I used it as training to get some kilometers in.
Yes, I needed to win to get maximum points for this year's Masters 5 competition but that, also, didn't matter as much as last year's - my last one in Masters 4 - the one I wanted and did everything right to win as the oldest rider in the category. I won but was denied the champion's jersey because of an incongruent decision by the club committee.
"Rules are made to be broken..." I learned.
In racing still, I decided to give the Australian Masters a miss and try to get my training up to speed, focusing on Grafton to Inverell. The trip to Victoria was going to be a combination of racing, holidaying and watching the Worlds for Sandra and I. We have now changed it to holidaying, training and discovering, something we have decided to do more of.
And talking racing, now on a pro level, here we have two wins by two great champions in the 2010 Vuelta a Espana, Gilbert and Hushovd. No need for words, the lifting photography by Graham Watson tells everything...
Tomorrow, the QLD ITT Championship will take place. I am not feeling great at the moment but will be racing for a third medal in the discipline. That will bring the motivation I need.
News soon!

It's almost certain that Congressional Republicans will soon vote overwhelmingly to violate one of their most cherished guiding principles: A service should be paid for by those who use the service. If we don't fully pay for services, Republicans usually insist, markets can't work effectively. This undervalues and overuses public services, resulting in wasteful overspending.
All of which makes the months-long Congresssional debate about renewing and replenishing the federal highway trust fund so revealing. This spring Republicans made their position clear: No new taxes. Rep. Dave Camp (R-MI), speaking for himself and his party declared, "I do not support, and the House will not support, billions of dollars in higher taxes to pay for more spending" on transportation.
Camp's position might be reasonable if he and his fellow Republicans were at the same time willing to abide by another of their basic principles: Live within your budget. If you don't have the money, don't spend it. In this instance, if drivers are unwilling to pay more to fund the road budget then cut federal highway spending by 28 percent, which would reduce overall national road spending by about 7 percent.
But Republicans don't want to cut road expenditures. They just don't want drivers to pay. So they have spent months devising strategies to divert money from other sources. In a May memo to rank and file House members, House Speaker John Beohner (R-OH), outgoing Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) and Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) insisted they had come up with a perfect "way to ensure continued funding of highway projects in a fiscally responsible manner"—bridge the highway-financing gap by eliminating Saturday postal delivery!
Eventually Republicans decided that sacrificing the post office to ensure that drivers could use the roads more cheaply was politically unworkable.
By now I know many readers are asking, "What about Democrats?" After all, the House proposal was passed by a bipartisan vote of 367-55. True. But Democrats generally don't buy the proposition that all services should, whenever possible, be fully paid by users. They believe I should pay for the public library even if I don't use it. I should pay for the public park even if I don't use it. They believe these are public goods available always to all. However Republicans, or at least Republicans circa 2014 don't seem to believe there are public goods.
Certainly some aspects of roads may be considered public goods. Even those who don't drive may depend on roads to deliver fire and police protection or ambulance services. Which would argue that some part of the road budget could justifiably come from the general public purse.
But the Republicans don't make that argument. And if they did, they would have to confront the fact that there are public costs as well as public benefits to roads. The environmental damages caused by driving, for example, far outweigh the taxes paid at the pump. To redress these damages some propose raising the gas tax by $1 or $2 per gallon or more. Republicans refuse to even entertain the notion. If they are so ideologically hidebound that they won't even ask drivers to pay for the roads they use, how could they possibly ask them to pay for the actual damages caused by their driving?
Republican have not always been willing to so quickly violate basic conservative economic principles. Prior to l956 highways were financed directly from the federal Treasury. Then in 1956, at the insistence of Republican President Dwight D. Eisenhower the Highway Trust Fund was established with revenue generated from a tax on fuel. The original tax was 3 cents per gallon. Republican Presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush each raised the tax by 5 cents per gallon. In 1993 President Clinton raised it by a little over 4 cents. And there, at 18.4 cents per gallon, it has remained for the last 21 years.
In 2008 the highway trust fund experienced a shortfall, the result of reduced driving and fuel use due to sky-high oil prices. Congress made up the shortfall with $8 billion from general funds. In 2009 and 2010 Congress again supplied funds from the general treasury.
The hope was that Congress would eventually develop a long term funding plan that would include a gas tax increase. In 2013, none other than the U.S. Chamber of Commerce supported such a move. The Republicans would have none of it.
Washington Republicans are not the only ones violating the user pays principle. The Tax Foundation estimates that overall state and local governments finance only 32 percent of the cost of roads out of user fees. Federal funding brings this total up to 50 percent. The rest comes out of general funds. In the case of cities the majority comes from property taxes.
A number of states, governed by Republicans as well as Democrats, have begun raising gas taxes. Eighteen states currently use a gasoline sales tax whose revenue rises with gas prices or pegs the tax to the rate of inflation. But 16 states have not raised their gas taxes for two decades or more. Recently Wyoming raised its gas tax for the first time in 16 years. New Hampshire hiked its gas tax for the first time in 23 years. But states and cities have a long way to go before they could consider their transportation funding mechanisms self-sustaining.
By the time you read this, Congress may have jerry-rigged a temporary solution to the highway funding shortfall. Which means we get to have the same debate again next year. Perhaps Republicans will propose slashing food stamps or Medicare or students' Pell grants to subsidize the roads. Anything to avoid having to require those who use the roads to pay for the roads.

Olivia Wilde: Honey Badger Don't Care!

The Bliss of Mrs Blossom
I picked up this fabric from Fabric-a-brac (blogged here) and I knew it had to become a dress! The fabric is good enough that I could have even made a jacket – but alas there was only 2 meters!
It has the biggest purple and pink blossoms and another fleur de lis (?) kinda print – I'm not sure what this might be called – let me know in the comments if you do!
The fabric could well have been a curtain off cut so it's pretty warm and so I'm able to wear it around without a cardigan.
The pattern I used was Simplicity 7436. An a-line tent dress with V shaped yoke and front patch pockets. The V at the front is supposed to be created in 3 parts – but I wanted to make it in 2 pieces so that the pattern was continuous. It worked out but the point of the V went a little funny and so I ended up with a teeny little pleat to make it look ok
Matching the print at the seam lines was a bit tricky.
I also added long sleeves from another pattern as this one is obviously for summer as it only includes short ones
These photos were taken at the Blog Society Launch on the top of the Sydney Museum of Contemporary Art by Annette Wilson – who is an actual photographer but was kind enough to take these pics for me.

not a silly question at all! Most patterns will have the year published on the back of the pattern in small writing. If is isn't printed, you can always search the pattern number and brand (ie Simplicity 1234) in pattern review http://sewing.patternreview.com/ or vintage patterns wiki http://vintagepatterns.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page where they list a lot of patterns. The next step if it isn't there is to try good old Google to see if anyone has written about it before.
And if all these fail, you can post a picture to Burdastyle or Sew Retro and ask for other users opinions on the style and date.
One giveaway for 60s patterns is the length of the hem and the sleeve type. if you can see the knees on model in the picture or if the dress has large bishop/angel sleeve type these are very 60s in style. Also if it looks like clothing that a child might wear – but for adults, that is also a tell tale sign of 60s fashion.
Good luck!

Harv has published two novels, which were critically acclaimed, but not financially successful. Coming home to Portland is difficult as he is having writer's block and must contend with the ramifications of class and money in his hometown. The family car lot is on Portland's Eastside, a poor neighborhood. His customers are all down on their luck, he doesnt run the car lot well and he's constantly in debt. When he accidentally falls into possession of a rare 1948 Kaiser, he is forced to take out a $35,000 loan to pay for it, only to have the car stolen. Searching for information about his stolen car, Harv embarks on an investigation that will lead him down the path of Ralph Styles, a deceased 1940s journalist and the car's former owner.

FOX Business: Capitalism Lives Here
U.S. stock-index futures rallied on Thursday after Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said the central bank will continue its easy-money policies for the 'foreseeable future.'
Continue Reading Below
Today's Markets
As of 8:39 a.m. ET, Dow Jones Industrial Average futures jumped 120 points to 15364, S&P 500 futures rallied 15.5 points to 1664 and Nasdaq 100 futures leapt 26 points to 3022.
The broad S&P 500 narrowly extended its winning streak to five days on Wednesday. Sentiment among world trading desks got a boost late Wednesday after Bernanke suggested the U.S. economy will be in need of aggressive monetary accommodation from the central bank for a long time to come.
"Thoughts of tapering have been banished to the outer darkness this morning, as Fed chairman Ben Bernanke seemed to come down firmly on the side of additional stimulus in his speech last night," Chris Beauchamp, a market analyst at IG said in a note to clients.
The speech ricocheted through many financial markets. The dollar recently sold off by more than 1% against a basket of world currencies that are tracked by the dollar index. That move helped gold prices zoom higher by $34.90, or 2.8%, to $1,282 a troy ounce. Traders also bid up U.S. Treasury bonds after a heavy selloff last week. The benchmark 10-year yield fell 0.043-percentage point to 2.571%.
Oil prices fell just slightly, with the benchmark U.S. contract recently dipping 57 cents, or 0.53%, to $105.97 a barrel. Wholesale New York Harbor gasoline slumped 0.8% to $2.99 a gallon.
There are two significant economic reports out at 8:30 a.m. ET.
The number of individuals applying for first-time jobs benefits rose to 360,000 last week from an upwardly revised 344,000 the week prior, according to the Labor Department. Economists expected claims to fall to 340,000 from a initially reported 343,000. Data focusing on the labor market have been a major focus on Wall Street of late, as the Fed has said it will keep easing until there is substantial improvement on the jobs front.
Meanwhile, the Labor Department reports U.S. import prices fell 0.2% in June from the month prior, compared to expectations they would hold steady. Meanwhile, export prices slipped 0.1%, matching expectations.
Foreign Markets
The Euro Stoxx 50 jumped 0.9% to 2684, the English FTSE 100 gained 0.66% to 6548 and the German DAX rallied 1.1% to 8155.
In Asia, the Japanese Nikkei 225 edged up 0.39% to 14473 and the Chinese Hang Seng surged 2.6% to 21437.

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. companies built up their stockpiles in November as their sales improved. Continued growth in inventories suggests businesses believe consumers will increase spending in the months ahead.
The Commerce Department said Tuesday that business stockpiles grew 0.4 percent in November. That follows a strong 0.8 percent gain in October. Sales increased 0.8 percent in November after a 0.5 percent gain the previous month.
Rising stockpiles should help keep economic growth solid in the October-December quarter. Several economists project growth at a 3 percent annual rate in that period after a 4.1 percent rate in the previous quarter. Greater restocking boosts growth because it requires more factory production.
Retailers led much of the gains in inventories ahead of the holiday shopping season. Wholesalers also increased their stockpiles. Stockpiling by manufacturers was flat.
But increases in stockpiles can also pose risks for economic growth. Two-fifths of the growth in the July-September quarter came from a buildup in stockpiles. All those additional products in stores and on warehouse shelves could weigh heavily on the companies that own them if consumer spending doesn't accelerate.
Retails sales rose 0.2 percent in December, slightly slower than the gains in the previous two months.
Americans bought more clothes last month, shopped more frequently online and ate out more often. But they cut back on car and truck purchases compared with November. And they spent less at department stores and on electronics and furniture.
Slower sales can cause retailers, manufacturers and wholesalers to sell their goods at discounted prices, cutting into profits. And those companies will also order fewer new goods, lowering factory output.
Still, most economists said the December gains in retail spending point to growth in consumer spending, which drives roughly 70 percent of economic activity.

Strange news on famitsu.com
Just forget what i posted, famitsu were refering to an interview on a foreign magazine (play magazine?). Confirmed is that it is being done by Team Symphonia.

Excerpt from an Interview in Regards to Tales of Vesperia via Play Magazine.
Yosh[ito] Higuchi, Director and Tsutomu Gouda, Producer
Interview by Nick Des Barres & Dai Kohama / Transcribed by Dai Kohama
Translated by Nick Des Barres
I wondered if you were aiming directly at the Western markets.
YH: No, it's not like that at all-we're not that bigheaded yet (laughs). Like always, I think that our Japanese fans understand Tales the best. But does that mean Tales can't succeed in the West? Of course not-Symphonia proved that there are plenty of Western gamers who appreciate the very Japanese sense Tales has. Our goal is to make this game for everyone who appreciates that sort of aesthetic, so, no we're not aiming directly at the Western market.
We love the 360, but it hasn't been doing very well in Japan.
YH: I suppose you want to ask, "why 360?" (laughs) We had actually begun research into HD hardware while still working on Abyss. When Abyss was finished, it was very well-received, and we had to decide where we were going next. There were many possibilities-at the time, we could certainly have done another game on PS2. But we felt there was a need to go HD. Logic would dictate we'd have to do it eventually, so why not now? That left two choices. When we started this project, the 360 had the more complete development environment.
Was that the only reason?
YH: Well, even thought the West isn't our main target, I knew we had to cater to our overseas fans as well, so that's another reason. But this doesn't mean we're not going to work on PS3 or other hardware-just that Tales is coming to the 360 first.
Can you see Vesperia getting ported to PS3 some time in the future, like Eternal Sonata?
YH: Yes, I won't deny the possibility. But we're not thinking about it yet-there are so many other things to concentrate on first.

Anyway, hopefully the game delivers when they release it later in the year(if that almost 60% complete rumor ends up being true).

Command of the Revenants
In regards to the west, he also mentions the fact that Vesperia would mark NA's 10th Tales anniversary, with the original Destiny back in 1998. Like how Abyss marked their 10th anniversary. I'm wondering if we'll get a Cless logo, or a Stahn one, on it.
I'm still getting the impression that Tales fan = Symphonia Fan/ Nintendo fan here in the west, though. Most of the comments I see are all, "EW, 360!? No way, won't buy that crap. Nothing I want."

This is one of the games that get me excited about having a 360... and they're not that many. But with the possibility of a later PS3 port, I'll have to hold on and wait for further info if such a thing is even going to happen. No doubt a later version will have extras and added content the first version won't have.
The only problem is, if the PS3 version (if it becomes ported) will be released in the West as well. I mean, not that I'm particularly looking forward to it, but where's that Eternal Sonata, Namco? Like the PS2 version of Tales of Symphonia, this (and ES) just might not cross over to this side of the world, like, ever. Well, at least if I really wanted a PS3 version, I can always import it.

And you know the other thing that'd make more people buy a 360? If they didn't have such a disgustingly high failure rate. I mean one of Microsoft's own units redringed at GDC, what kind of an impression does that send to potential buyers?

Nevertheless the decision to work on the 360 first instead of the ps3 kind of bothers me, if they do decide to port it over. By now most devs should know it is easier to port a game from the ps3 to 360, than from the 360 to ps3. But then again, when the game is finally released on the market, i reckon the 360 will probably be the cheapest console, from this generation, available. So just wait and see i guess.

UBISOFT: South Park: The Stick of Truth is coming out Christmas. Probably.
South Park: The Stick of Truth will be out 'holiday' or Christmas, as we like to call it.
The game was originally due from THQ before the company entered liquidation, and was scheduled to arrive in Q2.
The game was rescued by Ubisoft, but clearly the publisher wasn't able to get it out before Q4.
The announcement was made during Ubisoft's pre-E3 press conference, which featured a new trailer for the game.

A global event like the Olympics is normally the goose that lays the golden egg for a city's hospitality industry. It should mean hordes of visitors caught up in the exuberance of the Games and their surroundings, eager to spend on hotels, meals, and travel.
But as Beijing 2008 heads into its final lap, the promise of a tourism bonanza remains unfulfilled. Hoteliers are struggling to fill rooms. A media center for journalists not accredited to the Games is mostly empty of foreigners. Families hoping to rent a spare room to foreign guests have waited in vain.
"We were expecting over 2 million people to come to Beijing for the Games. We may find in the end it was less than 600,000," says the sales manager for one luxury hotel here. Official figures will not be released for another month.
Sky-high hotel prices – as much as $1,000 a night for a three-star hotel – may have hurt bookings. But hoteliers, tourist officials, and foreign consultants to the Olympics mainly blame the difficulty many foreigners have faced in obtaining visas, and negative perceptions of the host nation.
Tourism had already suffered this year after unrest in Tibet sparked protests in the West against the international Olympic torch relay. That controversy led some Western leaders to mull a boycott of the opening ceremonies. Most later agreed to attend, but the damage done to China's image has lingered.
"Many, many clients did not want to come because of perceptions of China and the Tibet issue. Another issue was all the visa problems and restrictions before the Games," says the hotel sales manager.
Tighter visa controls did not just dissuade visitors from coming; they also drove out thousands of itinerant foreigners and overseas students living here. Authorities also sent home Chinese students not from Beijing and enforced household registration rules more strictly.
"The main problem is that government has thrown so many people out of the city, foreigners and Chinese alike, and it's so quiet. Hotels are feeling the pain," says Gilbert van Kerckhove, a business consultant in Beijing who has advised the Games organizers.
Though security appeared to drive much of China's attitude to foreigners at the Games, some observers wonder about the purpose behind the policy. "They made it hard to get tickets and hard to get visas. The impression they gave was that they didn't want foreigners to come," says one foreign Olympics consultant.
Operating from a converted hotel outside the Olympic Green, the Beijing International Media Center was designed for 10,000 foreign journalists not accredited by their national Olympic committees. In fact, only 3,000 registered there, a BIMC official says.
On a recent visit, most using the facilities and attending briefings were Chinese news crews. The center was also crowded with 800 volunteers ready to help but with little more to do than watch the Games on TV.
Beijing tourism officials said that before the Olympics they expected as many as 500,000 foreign tourists to come during the Games, including arrivals from Hong Kong and Macau, as well as self-ruled Taiwan. That would have been up from the capital's 420,000 visitors last August but now seems an unreachable target. Arrivals in June and July this year were significantly lower than 2007 figures.
Tourism officials, who have declined to issue data until after the Games, are putting on a brave face. Last week, Wang Zhifa, deputy head of China's National Tourism Administration told a press conference here that nearly one-fifth of hotel rooms in Beijing were empty, but predicted tourism would pick up after the athletes go home.
"Generally speaking, regular visitors will avoid the peak period during the Olympics Games. Only athletes, coaches, and fans will visit then," he said.
That analysis doesn't square with the projections of Beijing's hoteliers, who are slashing room rates online.
Since 2001, the stock of starred hotels has grown from 500 to more than 800, and many existing hotels refitted rooms ahead of the Games. A year ago, some quoted rooms at up to 10 times the standard price amid predictions of a massive boom.
Calls last week to some dozen mid-range hotels around Beijing, though, reveal that many still have unsold rooms and are prepared to cut prices. Asked if they could accommodate a late booking of 60 rooms, most readily agreed. Nearly all said they had undertaken renovations over the past two years. Many hotels said they had less than two-thirds occupancy.
Homestay programs have been an even bigger flop. The Lotus Education Foundation, a US-based nonprofit that runs one such program, lined up 1,000 host families for an expected Olympics boom.
But only 20 visitors have shown up, says Lisa Sheng, a program manager. "It's lower than we expected. It's because China's policy is very restrictive and it's not easy to get visas," she says.
A government-run homestay program to match Olympics tourists with Beijing families has enjoyed no greater success. Touted as an option for foreigners who wanted an up-close cultural experience, the program certified 598 homestays. Houses had to offer a clean, ventilated guest room and have at least one family member conversant in English. But less than 50 have so far received guests, according to a Beijing tourism official who blamed the lack of participation on the difficulty of getting visas and tickets.
"It's like a dish," he says. "We cooked the dish and nobody is eating it."

Double Fine: We're unafraid of open development after Kickstarter
Double Fine's memorable Kickstarter campaign has taught studio founder Tim Schafer that there's nothing to fear in being open with the development of a game.
Schafer told VentureBeat that despite popular belief, opening up and letting players in on the development process provides a support net for the in-progress title.
"The Kickstarter thing and the documentary that we're doing with the Kickstarter has just taught me that there's nothing to be afraid of," Schafer said. "You release your stuff out. You show a piece of concept art that may or may not be in the game. It doesn't matter. People are just like, 'Oh, that's cool!'"
People get on your side more, not get on your side less. The fear is that if it's not perfect, you can't show it to people because they'll freak out. The fact is, they just feel more bought in. They feel like they're part of the development team."
Schafer's company earned over $3.3m through the crowdfunding site during its adventure game campaign earlier this year – the developer's original goal was just $400,000.
