First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
The Epson Artisan 835 is the company's flagship, photo-oriented color inkjet multifunction (print/copy/scan/fax). Although it isn't specifically designed for office use (as is Epson's WorkForce line), the Artisan 835 has nearly every feature a home-office user could want and then some, making its $300 price (as of October 3, 2010) justifiable, if still dear.
Setting up the Artisan 835 wirelessly was a breeze (USB and ethernet are also available); the dialog boxes were concise and easy to understand. Bundled software includes ArcSoft Print Creations for projects such as calendars, cards, and brochures, as well as Web to Page for formatting online content to fit better onto paper.
Automatic duplexing (two-sided printing) and an automatic document feeder for sending multipage documents through the scanner help make the Artisan 835 one of the best-equipped inkjet multifunctions we've seen. It also handles printable optical media (CDs, DVDs): Press the CD Tray button, and a 5.25-inch disc tray descends from the output area. The bottom-mounted, 120-sheet letter/legal paper tray is adequate; a dedicated, 20-sheet photo paper tray nestles inside it. Two media-card slots take CompactFlash, MultiMediaCard, Memory Stick, SD Card, and XD-Picture Card.
The Artisan 835 has one of the most distinctive and easily usable control panels we've seen to date. A 3.5-inch color touchscreen LCD sits within a 7.8-inch, amber-backlit touch panel. The controls light up contextually, appearing only when required. Although the LCD can appear a bit crowded, the layout is intuitive. The panel tilts upward freely, but tilting downward requires the awkward step of pushing an adjacent lock-release button.
Compared with the like-priced Canon Pixma MG8120, the Artisan 835 was a bit slower printing text, generating 7.3 pages per minute on the PC and 7 ppm on the Mac. It was considerably faster printing photos. On the PC, our snapshot-size photo printed at 5.24 ppm on letter-size plain paper, and 2.1 ppm printed on Epson's own photo paper. The larger, more complex photo that we print using our Mac emerged at 0.9 ppm, the best speed we've seen recently for this category. Scanning and copying speeds were much faster than average.
The Artisan 835's photos look smooth and natural, with a slightly cool color temperature. Text output in default mode on plain paper is lackluster, coming out gray and a little fuzzy-edged. Switch the driver to its Fine setting, however, and the black deepens and character definition improves drastically -- in exchange for slower printing and higher ink usage.
Inside the Artisan 835 you'll find six color cartridges: cyan, magenta, yellow, and black, plus light cyan and light magenta for a subtler palette in photos. All deliver impressively low ink costs. The high-yield color cartridges each cost $16 and yield approximately 805 pages -- a hair less than 2 cents per color per page. You'll pay 3.3 cents per page with the $17.09, 520-page, high-yield black cartridge. No standard-size black cartridge exists, but the other standard colors each cost $10.44 and last 510 pages, or 2 cents per color per page.
Despite its somewhat high price, the Epson Artisan 835 is worth considering for its wealth of features and impressive performance. Only its grayish text on plain paper and lower-capacity input tray keep it from being as well suited for office use as it is for photo work.
First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Meet the Totem media player
Movie Magic
Totem brings Hollywood to your Linux desktop. We'll show you how to get started with this movie player.
The Totem media player is the Gnome desktop's official movie player, so it's no surprise to find it listed in the Applications | Sound & Video menu as Hardy Heron's default player for video files and DVDs [1]. Given the availability of other popular players, one might wonder why Heron's developers chose Totem, but after spending only a little time with it, I'm not sure I can easily go back to anything else.
Totem is available in two distinct versions. Totem-gstreamer uses the GStreamer media framework for its audio/video back end, whereas totem-xine employs the same services as delivered by libxine, the xine project's A/V engine. Heron's default version is totem-gstreamer, but totem-xine can be installed from the system's Synaptic package manager.
Starting Up
I tested version 2.22.1 of Totem on Hardy Heron as a live system from a CD/DVD drive in a machine powered by a 2.4GHz CPU. The machine's audio and video capabilities are above average because I do some professional audio work and because I like to watch movies on it with better than average sound and visual displays. However, this article is targeted toward the new user of Totem and presumes no special hardware or previous experience with any other similar player.
I have some words of wisdom to share with my readers. Before doing anything else with Totem, determine whether you intend to play files in formats known to be patent-encumbered or that are otherwise restricted. If your answer is yes, then open Synaptic and install all the GStreamer plugin packages. For various reasons, these packages are known as the good, the bad, and the ugly, but if you want to view certain popular file types, you will need the video codecs provided by those packages.
But wait, that's not all: You also need to determine whether you intend to play encrypted DVDs with Totem. If so, you again need a session with Synaptic to install the libdvdcss2 package. Because of legal complications, the library cannot be provided directly by Hardy Heron's default repositories. A quick search on Google led me to the Medibuntu site and its "repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons" [2]. Those reasons include copyright restrictions, incompatible licensing, country-specific patents, and so forth.
Obviously, Medibuntu is not an official Ubuntu component, but you are free to decide whether to add its repository to Syaptic's default list. Follow the simple instructions on the Medibuntu site's Repository HOWTO, and you'll soon enjoy the pleasure of using Totem to play your legally purchased DVDs.
Of course, Totem plays unencrypted DVDs and video files in open formats (such as Ogg, Theora, or MPEG-4) without extra packages, but alas, the greater number of video files will require the additional codecs and libraries.
Getting Around
Totem's user interface (see Figure 1) is organized for simplicity and speed. A single window presents a top menubar, the viewing screen, its transport controls, and a variably defined sidebar. Starting with the top menubar, I will take a closer look at each part of the Totem user interface.
The Movie menu provides the expected Open File and Open Location items, along with a list of previously opened files, play commands for discs in your CD or DVD drives, an Eject function, and the Quit command.
The Edit menu offers a Take Screenshot function – which is very handy – controls for Repeat and Shuffle modes, and controls access to the Totem Preferences and Plugin Manager dialogs (Figures 2 and 3).
Among other items, the View menu contains controls for Fullscreen and Fit Window To Movie. The Fit function merely sizes Totem's view screen to your movie's original aspect, but I found it to be a very neat feature.
Figure 1 shows off Totem after selecting the 1:1 fit for a widescreen movie, a more pleasing view than the default size. Of course, Totem can also be resized simply by pulling its corner sizing tab, but I found the Fit settings to be more satisfying.
The View menu further contains the expected controls for your video's aspect ratio: deinterlacing, subtitles, and viewing angle. It also includes toggles for the sidebar and the transport controls.
The Go menu provides quick jumps to various points on your DVD, including the audio, title, angle, and chapter menus. This menu also includes Skip To functions and Previous/Next controls for moving quickly to chapters in the currently playing movie or to another selection in your playlist.
The sparsely populated Sound menu offers only a Language control and two items for raising or lowering the volume. Finally, the Help menu provides access to the ever-popular About panel and to the Totem user manual.
On to Totem's main view screen. Left-clicking anywhere within that screen will open a pop-up menu that includes playback controls you've seen in the Movie menu and that are also in the transport control strip. The other feature of note here is that you can drag and drop files directly into the screen for instant play.
By default, the sidebar displays either a playlist or the properties of the currently selected movie. However, the Local Search and YouTube browser plugins also list their results in the sidebar (more about that later).
The +/-- buttons and the up/down arrows under the sidebar's listbox will add, delete, and re-order items in the displayed list. The disk icon opens the Save Playlist dialog.
The transport control strip consists of a location slider, a Play/Pause button, two controls for going to the Next/Previous item in your playlist, a volume control, and a toggle for the sidebar display. Finally, beneath the transport controls is Totem's status line, where you can see the playback state (playing, paused, or stopped), the elapsed time, and the length of the selection in hours/minutes/seconds.
That's about all there is to the Totem user interface. As I said, simplicity is its key design factor. Totem's feature set is not as extensive as some, but better than others. In my opinion, the designers have made the right decisions about what to include in Totem's menus and what to leave out. Even its Preferences dialog restricts itself to a few controls and settings, but they are the controls and settings that will matter most to the greatest number of users.

Good project! Fast and easy to use! Recommend it to everybody!
The screenshots look great!!! Too bad I can't install the software and try it out, though. The documentation, forums, comments, etc. say that the "eGroupware-egw-pear-xxx" package also needs to be installed and that the file can be found here at SourceForge (under Files). I cleaned my eyeglasses to make sure I wasn't missing something but the file still isn't there. Also, just to be sure, I had another IT professional try to find the file -- no success. Apparently I'm not the only one with this issue, so if anyone can find this elusive file then please share your discovery here or on the EGroupware Community Forum...
Great software. I use it already for a long time and recommend it to everybody.

Q: What is a red light running violation?
A: A violation has occurred if, when while facing a steady red traffic signal, your vehicle proceeded into such an intersection without stopping and standing until an indication to proceed was shown or your vehicle made a right hand turn, or a left hand turn from a oneway street onto another one-way street, while facing a steady red signal without first coming to a complete stop and not proceeding until it was safe to do so and yielding rightof-way to pedestrians lawfully in an adjacent crosswalk and to other traffic lawfully using the intersection.
Q: Why install red light cameras?
A: Traffic studies show that red-light running is a problem at many intersections throughout the County. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates 20 percent of all drivers do not obey intersection traffic signals. Red light cameras help us to enforce traffic laws by automatically photographing vehicles whose drivers run red lights. The City of West Park is committed to the safety of its community and dedicated to reducing red light violations and their potential for crashes and injuries on our roadways. Q: How do intersection safety cameras work? A: First rear image: The "A" shot is captured from the rear approach showing: the scene of the violation including the back of the violating vehicle in front of the violation line; one or more visible red light signals; and a clear image of the license plate of the offending vehicle, all from the single, base image.
Second rear image: The "B" shot is also captured from the rear approach showing: the scene of the violation including the back of the violating vehicle after the rear axle has crossed the stop line and the vehicle has illegally entered the intersection; one or more visible red light signals; and a clear image of the license plate of the offending vehicle, all from the single, base image.
License plate crop: For the court and police department this is the most significant innovation in photo enforcement. The Axsis™ Violation Processing System will create a magnified "crop" of the license plate from one of the images for easy viewing. The cropped license plate close-up is not a separate image, but rather a close-up view of the original violation image. This image can be taken from either of the two images captured.
Q: Where will the red light cameras be located in West Park?
A: Cameras will be installed at the following intersections in the City. Each approach will be clearly marked with signs.
1. Westbound West Hallandale Beach Blvd. @ US 441/State Road 7
2. Northbound US 441/State Road 7 @ Pembroke Road
3. Eastbound Pembroke Road @ SW 56 Avenue
4. Southbound US 441/ @ West Hallandale Beach Blvd.
5. Northbound US 441/State Road 7 @ West Hallandale Beach Blvd.
6. Westbound County Line Road/SW 41 Street @ US 441 State Road 7
Q: What if the light was yellow?
A: The Automated Safety System only becomes active once the red light is showing. It will not capture a vehicle if the vehicle enters the intersection prior to the light changing to red. If you entered the intersection on yellow, it is legal to clear the intersection if the light turned red while you were still in the intersection.
Q: Why did I receive this Notice of Violation?
A: Based upon images captured by the automated system, your vehicle was determined to have committed a red light violation. As the owner of the vehicle, the Notice of Violation is mailed to you.
Q: What if I am not the driver/owner of the vehicle at the time of the violation?
A: If your vehicle was stolen or sold at the time of violation, or was being test driven by another person, you may submit a sworn statement to that effect to the Court to rebut the presumption, that you were driving the vehicle at the time of the violation. A Declaration Of Non-Liability form may be downloaded from www.ViolationInfo.com or obtained from the Court. The form must be filled out, accurately and in its entirety. The form must be mailed or hand-delivered in-person to the Court prior to the Notice due date before any additional actions can be taken. If you are a rental car company or you leased your vehicle, send your letter identifying the driver along with a copy of this Notice within 30 days after the date of the Notice of Violation is received to Violation Processing Center, PO Box 22091, Tempe, AZ 85285- 2091.
Q: What happens if I ignore the Notice of Violation?
A: Failure to pay the civil penalty or to contest liability prior to the 45th day after receipt of the notice is an admission of liability, and failure to appear at an administrative adjudication hearing after having requested a hearing is an admission of liability and constitutes a waiver of the right to appeal. Failure to pay the civil penalty within 45 days after receipt of this Notice of Violation shall result in the imposition of a late-payment fee of $25. If the second notice remains unpaid, collections proceedings and entry of judgment against you may proceed, and a request will be made to the Florida Division of Motor Vehicles to place a State hold on the registration renewal of the vehicle.
Q: Will I receive any points on my driving record for this violation?
A: No, this is a civil infraction that is not reported to the Florida Division of Motor Vehicles.
Q: Will my insurance rates be affected?
A: No, this is a civil infraction that is not reported to any insurance agencies.
Q: Is this only a revenue generating program?
A: No. This is a safety program. Red Light Camera Enforcement programs have been shown to reduce red light violations and intersection crashes. Numerous studies from the United States and worldwide, as well as the experience of many other cities, indicate significant decreases in red light running violations and collisions after cameras were installed. Other intersections not monitored by automated enforcement may also experience a decrease in violations and accidents as a result of the presence of this automated enforcement in other areas of the community.
Q: What if I was issued a Notice of Violation from an Officer for the exact same offense?
A: The Traffic Ticket issued by the officer takes precedent over the Automated Safety
Short URL: http://www.communitynewspapers.com/?p=33443
One Question- No points on License, No suspended or revoked license,no insurance increase – give me one
good reason to pay !!!!! Also since the personal touch is not there -sometime valid reason to run light – but with no one to plead your case to – no one to tell the reason to- only a machine who decides right or wrong – not
fair at all ……
I slowed down to safely pass a trucker who did not plan his oncoming left turn correctly and stopped suddenly, getting stuck in the intersection. I could have slammed on my brakes to avoid the ticket, endangering ppl behind me. I could have sped past at high rate, to avoid the ticket, endangering everyone who didnt see me coming (what most people do). Instead i slowed down a little and clipped the light turning red (it was green when i started btw and i was NOT speeding at all) just inches over the line. So being a safe drive caused me a fine, thanks to these stupid red light cameras. Reviewed by a cop they say and approved to proceed. Was he blind? there was video. I delayed fighting it, trying to figure out best way to fight, was out of town when they sent another notice, and long story short – now im scheduled for license suspension… Found that out getting a rental car, got stranded… These programs are NOT for safety as they say, they cause everybody to race into yellow lights!!! i see it every day! and… duh, i will do it too next time!!

Len said Katherine had wonderful musicality. He liked the detail of the dance. He said he wanted Katherine to lift her rib cage a little more while in hold. Bruno said it was exquisite. He said Katherine's quality of movement was surreal. Carrie Ann said it was like watching two pros together.
SCORE: 26 (that's the highest score ever given on week one!)
COUPLE: Gladys & Tristan
DANCE: Cha cha cha
I cannot believe The Pips wouldn't let Gladys dance back in the day! I don't care if Gladys messes up because she looks like she's in it to have fun. That's my kind of contestant! I love the sass factor here. She has definite musicality. I think Tristan may have been too safe in the choreography. I had fun watching this. I almost put down my laptop to dance along. ALMOST. (Note: if I do this, there will be no video for you to judge!)
Bruno said "the legend has got the moves." He said she's a real star. Carrie Ann jumped up and danced. She said Gladys was shaking her tail feather like nobody's business. Len said Gladys's dance oozed rhythm and she did a wonderful job.
COUPLE: Jaleel & Kym
DANCE: Fox trot
Jaleel wants you to know he's no Urkel. However, if he makes it to the finale, I'd love to see some Urkel in the freestyle. Just in the first few beats of this dance, I'm going to say Jaleel will make it very far in this competition. He is incredibly graceful! He's also strong. This is the best fox trot one of the guys has done! If he doesn't get a few nines from the judges, I'm going to be sad!
Carrie Ann said Jaleel is the icing on the cake. She said his dance was smooth. Len loved the seamless transitions. He said this was the best first show of any season. Bruno said he thought he was watching Gregory Hines. He said Jaleel couldn't have been better.
WOW! What a fantastic first dance from these couples. Some of them don't have very far to go (so for drama, I expect some to stumble halfway through the competition). I can't wait to see their second dances!
You can see the performances online here.

Are you looking for the best lawyer to help you in filing your case and have it heard inside the court? Of course, you want to win the case and that is going to be very possible if you have someone to represent you legally inside the court. Depending on the kind of case where you have been involved at, it pays to check the right kind of lawyer to hold your case.
If your case has something to do with personal injury incidents then the best choice for you is to find a good Personal Injury Lawyer Miami FL. With a personal injury lawyer, you are confident that there is someone out there who will defend and fight for you no matter what it takes. And your chance of winning is big because you have the right person to help you in the litigation and hearing process of your case inside the courts of Miami, Florida.
However, you have to take note that personal injury lawyers in Miami usually have their own field of specialization. It is not good to hire a lawyer whose specialization is in the field of vehicular accidents when in fact your case is something which involves medical malpractices. This simply means that you have to hire the one who has a wide range of knowledge about fighting for a case that is similar to what you have been through.
Another important thing to consider when hiring a personal injury lawyer is his background. Is the lawyer you are dealing with a competent one? Does the lawyer presents a good range of experience in battling and defending cases which are in line to what you have? By hiring the right kind of personal injury lawyer, you will be very much secured knowing that there is someone out there who is going to defend you legally and intelligently inside the court.
Finding a good personal injury lawyer can also be obtained with the help of referrals. This simply means asking people around. For sure, there will be someone in your circle of friends of acquaintances who knows of a good personal injury lawyer who will help you win your case and get the right compensation you truly deserve.

What Hard cap? League system built for Lakers
|Posted by shawn cassidy on August 15, 2012 at 7:00 AM
With the Lakers acquiring Howard. The Lakers will have a tax bill of around $30 million next July, and it's the last season where the tax rate is dollar-for-dollar. Starting in 2013-14 the new "incremental" tax takes over, where being $30 million above the tax line will mean paying a whopping $85 million tax bill. The Lakers will pay just that. Some say the system isn't broken. Some say the Magic made the move, and it's their fault they got crap back for a superstar. Valid point, but teams seem to be falling from any competitive stances. LA is able to do whatever they please. Their franchise brings in the most cash, so paying godly amounts in luxury tax means nothing.
But if your the Cleveland Cavs you can't build a super team like the Lakers. Because you can't. The team would go bankrupt.
So where is the competitive balance that all of us wanted. Why did the NBA go on strike? Well, they didn't go through the lockout for competitive balance. Because if they did, none of this would've happened. The owners wanted to save every penny, and that's the bottom line. So the league will always have the Lakers stealing from other teams, and the league wants the Lakers on top. Why wouldn't they? It brings in money for them, but the integrity of the league means nothing. Teams like the Magic may never compete for championships. Look at the Raptors. That team has never been considered a title contender,and they'll never compete for a title. But that's okay in the NBA's eyes.
All we can hope for is that someone beats them, or we beat them. What a waste of money that would be. If they fall on their pampered LA asses.
Another superstar joins another super teamESPN
The Lakers have earned success
If you love the Thunder or the Pacers or the Spurs, it's easy to wonder how good your team would be if you had the Lakers' many advantages, most importantly that big, lucrative local television market. And there's something to that; the Lakers' foray deep into new-CBA luxury tax is a tribute to their massive local television deal, which will never happen for New Orleans.
But being in New York or L.A. is merely part of the story. The NBA has four teams playing in the best markets imaginable: The Lakers, Clippers, Nets and Knicks.
And yet, clearly being in a big market isn't nearly enough to guarantee success. Those four teams combined over the last two years have a record of 294-298. Yes, they have huge money advantages. However, as the Knicks have proved time and again, thanks to the cap rules, a willingness to spend aggressively does not equal contention. Overspending, meanwhile, locks up roster spots with bad deals and is the only way to really remove yourself from contention for years. (Cheap teams have cap room that can be turned into real stars. The Heat united LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh by winning the race to have the league's smallest payroll in the summer of 2010.)
Please, first of all. The Nets are now in New York, and they have a team that's ready to challenge in the East. Look at the Clippers, a contender in the West. Those two teams caused that 294-298 record because of the 2010-11 season. With all of these NBA stars wanting the big markets these days. All four teams will compete in the playoffs, or possibly better. Please read ESPN's propaganda.
Bottom line is this. The Lakers bring in big TV deals,and other revenue for the league. So the luxury tax means nothing to them.

We will beat LA though. The road of integrity is never the easy road.
And incredibly, Stern and Hunter are still there, spinning their webs.
pp says...
As for the Lockout, the justifications for it have been revealed as what they always obvious were: BS. The teams wanted to force down player pay. And the Union barely put up a fight.
And incredibly, Stern and Hunter are still there, spinning their webs.
Stern has the league right where he wants it. In the short term the league is fine, but long term, when fans stopping showing to Raptor games,and Cavs games. Than the league will suffer.

By then, Stern will be gone. He'll be vacationing his retirement away with Hunter in a yacht somewhere the size of a football field.

952537 wrote:How are you measuring that? I have downloaded 9.8 MByte of CRL from Verisign and using JDK1.7.0_05 on Linux processed them using essentially your code but, though difficult to measure with any accuracy, see nothing like that sort of inflation. Using the Netbeans profiler the 9.8 MBytes seems to consume about 45 MByte of memory estimated from runs with and without storing the CRL in the map. Still large but only 1/3 of the value you experience.
about 95 MB of CRLs takes 1.33GB ( GB! ) of memory. Post 1.6.0_21, the same siize in CRLs takes roughly 1.45GB!
952537 wrote:Not a good indicator since it represents the memory allocated to the JVM and not the memory currently being used to hold the CRLs.
I should have mentioned a couple of baseline details about how I'm testing this:
I'm measuring memory use using Windows Task Manager, watching the Memory gauge on the Performance tab.
I have not yet used a MAT tool to do a closer analysis, and this code is extracted from a web-app that, not surprisingly, runs out of memory when I try to test it in place.I would not store the whole CRL set in memory especially for web-apps.
Also, in this case, an OCSP server is not an option, but I know that would off-load this work.I can't comment on this.
Also, there seems to be no difference between using the file names array from list() directly or using the ArrayList, again using the Task Manager gauge.EJP didn't say there would be ! He was just noting that there seemed to be a redundancy in having both an array of file names and an ArrayList holding the filtered names. I would take a different approach and use a FileFilter -
This won't be any faster than your approach and it won't use any less memory but I think it is much cleaner.
File[] crlFiles = dirFile.listFiles(new FileFilter()
public boolean accept(File child)
return child.isFile() && child.canRead() && child.getName().endsWith(".crl");
CertificateFactory cf = CertificateFactory.getInstance("X509"); // Can be re-used so does not need to be generated within the loop
for (File crlFile : crlFiles)
// read the CRLs
My point is that high resource use has been noted for these classes in a prior Java version, and that it has not been addressed( if it can be ), and has gotten worse in newer versions.I cannot comment on the high resource usage of the classes except that I doubt if one can reduce the memory usage. As to whether or not it has gotten worse - it may be worse but I don't think you have proved it is worse since I think your measurement technique is flawed.
So, given that this is a known memory hog, is there a better way to handle caching CRLs?Depending on exactly how it is to be used I would consider using a relational DB ( loaded offline) with a small volatile transient cache so that any cache memory used is released when the application is running short.
952537 wrote:Are you basing this 1.15 GB on
I ran the code through the eclipse Java Monitor, and the memory use is around 1.15GB for ~95MB worth of crl file data.
Used heap memory 1,154,336 kbytesIf so then I'm not sure this is valid. I'm not an Eclipse person but I thought this was the memory used while processing and not that used after the data is loaded. If I am right the the GC will have recovered some/much of that 1.15 GB.
MNI92 wrote:OK.
Yes, that's what I'm basing it on. There's an option of running gc in the tool's UI, but using it doesn't change the results, or the class/memory mappings. Neither does making the attempt in the code( System.gc() ).
If you have any suggestions for getting valid memory use for the code, let me know.Sounds like the 1.15 GB is valid but I suspect that even if you can halve that you are not going to be happy so you need to look at the alternatives. Other than the DB approach I have already mentioned I have no suggestions.

Warning! The following article contains dangerous amounts of freshness. Too much freshness has been known to explode the brain.
The Gathering of the Juggalos has been Galactivated (see the video below).
The Gathering of the Juggalos is an annual underground music festival taking place in Cave In Rock, Illinois.
Cave in Rock is a nexus point of geomantic energies. It is the point at which Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri, and Arkansas conjoin in continental bliss. The Cave has traditionally been a hideout for river pirates, counterfeiters, serial killers, highwaymen and various other outlaw types.
It is also one of several entrances to the legendary city of Agartha inside the Hollow Earth.
The Juggalos (and Juggalettes) are an active sect of Rust Belt gnostics operating in the blighted suburbs of America's Midwest.
The architecture of their gnosis is defined by the Dark Carnival, a revelation of the afterlife illuminated by the Juggalo prophet Violent J. The Dark Carnival was revealed to Violent J in a dream and expounded upon through a series of six albums. Each album embodies an archetype and relays a gospel of morality. Together the six albums make up the deck of Joker Cards.
The Joker Cards, like the Tarot, are used as a tool of divination and meditation among Juggalos on their path of gnosis. The archetypes of the Joker Cards include the Carnival of Carnage, the Ringmaster, the Riddle Box, The Great Milenko, the Amzaing Jeckel Brothers, and The Wraith (Death). The entities characterized in the Joker Cards are spirits that "try to save the human soul by showing the wickedness inside one's self".
"When you make the two into one, and when you make the inner like the outer and the outer like the inner, and the upper like the lower, and when you make male and female into a single one, so that the male will not be male nor the female be female, when you make eyes in place of an eye, a hand in place of a hand, a foot in place of a foot, an image in place of an image, then you will enter [The Dark Carnival]."
Through the cultivation of the Wicked Shit (their word for mana force) Juggalos are able to transcend their individuality and enter into a state a macrocosmic collective consciousness. Using the mantra "FAM-A-LEE" huge crowds of Juggalos can pool their consciousness into a non-linear energetic mass capable of contacting Galactic Races and generating huge amounts of garbage.
A sacramental baptism by Faygo (a holy corn-based beverage) is necessary for a candidate to become initiated into the Juggalo sect. Faygo is explosively distributed by the gnostic prophets Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope during their Insane Clown Posse concerts.
The Unveiling is the ultimate statement of Juggalo gnosis. The video below illustrates both the meaning and intent of the Juggalo prophets and their connection to the gnostic godhead.
All we're doing is pointing this shit out to you, we in this together!

Hillsboro 'Bursting at the Seams' With New DevelopmentHILLBORO, ND (WDAZ-TV) - North Dakota development is plentiful these days and not just out west near the oil fields. Cities in eastern North Dakota are developing further into what used to be rural land.
HILLBORO, ND (WDAZ-TV) - North Dakota development is plentiful these days and not just out west near the oil fields. Cities in eastern North Dakota are developing further into what used to be rural land.
There's a lot of summer projects underway in Hillsboro, for example, including construction, expansions and downtown revitalization.
The city has experienced quite a bit of growth over the years and city officials hope these projects will encourage even more businesses to move in.
A $9 million water treatment plant and a possible $500,000 sewer project are in the works. City officials are expanding west.
"Within city limits, we're sort of bursting at the seams. So Hillsboro specifically has done really well," Melissa Beach, with Traill County Economic Development, said.
Driving through town you may notice quite a bit of construction, starting right by the interstate.
"West of I-29 has been a great place for development and most recently they are working on expanding a local business," Beach said.
Total Ag. Industries is expanding its business on the west side, a place city officials hope to expand even more.
"We have water and electricity on the other side of I-29 and we're in the process of getting sewer over there too and we're hoping that'll help create some businesses over there," Hillsboro Public Works Director Jim Anderson said.
The sewer project could cost nearly $500,000, which city officials are hoping to finish by fall.
Just a half mile away, a $9 million water treatment plant is on schedule to be finished by September of 2013.
"The plan is to have it all up and the roof in before winter," Anderson said.
Driving downtown, you can see that there have been tens of thousands of dollars spent to revitalize the area. Also right now, construction is underway for a new bakery.
"The community had worked to save that downtown building and now a new business is going in there and finalizing construction," Beach said.
City officials say they think there has been quite a bit of growth in the area because they are located right between Fargo and Grand Forks and property values are lower than in bigger cities.

Great product By Steve on 11/26/13Steve would recommend this product to a friendI have been using his product for over 2 yrs in my mixed reef 280. Easy, economical and great results. Highly recommend!
Great Product By Corey on 6/24/13Corey would recommend this product to a friendI have been usuing this product for a year with no problems. Once its dialed in on the dose I just refill my dosing containers when they are empty. I have great coral growth on all my SPS and SPS corals. I have a slight problem with low Alkalinity so I can't run this 1 to 1 with my calcium. I dose at knight at a very low rate.
Great product By Bill on 6/7/13Bill would recommend this product to a friendThis is a great, cost efficient two part dosing solution. I have used it in my 200g system for over two years with success.
Quality By Traci on 4/7/13Traci would recommend this product to a friendgood price and quality product. noticed a difference in coral growth right away
well worth the price By paul on 3/6/13paul would recommend this product to a friendit comes with plenty of powder
Awesome Product By The Reef Spot on 3/2/13The Reef Spot would recommend this product to a friendMe and my friends have been using this forever! This is the best you can find, top quality, top performance, and would use nothing else. Good job BRS!
Balanced Alk By Richard on 2/21/13Richard would recommend this product to a friendI was pointed towards this product by a fellow hobbyist. Needless to say over the counter buffer additives dont keep up well with 100+ gallon systems. I found the calculator easy to use and quite helpful. In the end after dialing in my dose levels ive never had to worry, as they are spot on every time. Excellent product and support. I definitely recommend to all my fellow hobbyists.
Very cost effective, easy to dose By Matt on 1/13/13Matt would recommend this product to a friendI've been using this product for a couple years with good results. Instructions are easy and the BRS reef calculator makes dosing this product so easy. Using the BRS calculator and Bubble Magus doser with this product is basically a "set it and forget it" type of deal, and I test magnesium a couple times per week to double check this. This product is so much cheaper than other bottled liquid magnesium products if you don't mind mixing the solution up yourself (which is very easy).
Balancing your KH By Kwadwo on 10/8/12Kwadwo would recommend this product to a friendHelps maintain balance KH and keeps my PH from going out of wack too much.

Ask a Question About 'BRS Bulk Soda Ash (Sodium Carbonate) Aquarium Supplement'
Previously Asked Questions
by Jose on November 13, 2013, @1:17 AM
do i need both sodium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate to dose for ALK?
Bulk Reef Supply Hey Jose,
Just one or the other will do the trick as they both accomplish the same thing. The difference is that sodium bicarbonate will have a very slight pH lowering effect and sodium carbonate will have a small ph raising effect. If your pH is less then 8.4 normally, most folks go with the soda ash (sodium carbonate).
by Frank on December 10, 2013, @3:54 AM
How many gallons of final product do you get from a one gallon size container? Is the suggested mix of two cups per gallon the max that will dissolve, or just the ideal amount? Can you mix it stronger if you want to change the ratio of alk to calc using a dual dosser with a single control for both?
Bulk Reef Supply Hi Frank,
There is 16 cups in a gallon, so if you follow the recipe of 2 cups per gallon of solution it will make 8 gallons of solution.
The 2 cups is both near the maximums solubility and easy unit of measurement to measure. it it will match the dosage for calcium. If you alter the recipe its no longer going to conform to the calculator and the dosage will no longer match up with the calcium. You don't want to alter the ratio of calcium to alkalinity because corals always consume them in a fixed ratio that is the same ratio the solutions are mixed to (so if you mix them up correctly, you should always be dosing matched amounts of calcium and alkalinity solutions).
At the current recipe you could do as you say, control both on the same timer (because the dosages would be matched), if you alter the recipe or solutions that would no longer be possible.
Soda Ash (Sodium Carbonate) is used alone or in combination with BRS Bulk Sodium Bicarbonate to maintain proper alkalinity and raise the pH of your tank. Most commonly used in the 2 Part daily dosing system in conjunction with BRS Bulk Calcium Chloride to maintain proper calcium and alkalinity levels on a daily basis. Dissolves crystal clear and meets strict BRS quality standards.
- 1 Standard 8 oz. dry measuring cup
- 1 Mixing spoon
- 1 Funnel
- 1 Empty 1 gallon jug
- 1 Clean 1 gallon bucket or bowl
- 1 RO/DI or distilled water
- Fill gallon jug 5/6 full with RO/DI or distilled water and pour into empty bucket/bowl.
- While stirring water, add 2 level dry measuring cups of soda ash.
- Once dissolved, use funnel to transfer solution to gallon jug.
- Label Alkalinity and let sit before use.
NOTE: If you have difficulty dissolving alkalinity solution float the jug in a sink of hot water and shake vigorously. Alternatively, you can mix the solution in a large open top container to allow for stirring the solution.

Like last year, I will be putting together a series of edible gardening articles (writing and photography) for the Globe & Mail that will be published in both the national portion of the printed paper and online every other Saturday until fall. The following, on growing strawberries is my first article of this season. If you'd like to see what I wrote last year, it looks like articles have been archived on the Globe and Mail website (scroll down the page to the title "How to Grow Veggies").
While I'm being self-promotional: My next Toronto-based workshop (and likely my last until the fall.), "Growing Tomatoes in Containers" is this coming Saturday and there is still one or two spaces left.
The Summer 2010 issue of Country Gardens Magazine (which I love because my gardens are about as urban as one can get) has an interview with me in their "Over the Garden Gate" feature. Hello, if you have come from this mag!
Edible Toronto also recently featured a really lovely piece on Grow Great Grub that includes a photo of me in/on my roof garden taken by Laura Berman.
The talented and prolific Julie Jackson (of Subversive Cross Stitch and Kitty Wigs) recently interviewed me for her Craft magazine column Subversive Finds.
Okay, enough of that. Here's the article.
Next week I will post a strawberry/herb container planting that didn't make it into the newspaper or online versions.
The Real Dirt: Bigger isn't better when it comes to strawberries
A really good or even decent strawberry needs to be slow-ripened in the sun: They are literally tiny buttons of distilled sunshine. This is why the store-bought imposters, picked while still under-ripe to maximize time on the shelf, will never pass.
Fortunately, strawberries are probably the easiest fruit crop to grow. Anyone with a small patch of sun, whether it touches down on a backyard, a front stoop or a window ledge, can grow a little taste of summer. Individual strawberry plants are generally pretty small, with shallow root systems. As a result, they're adaptable to growing in tight spaces and even smaller containers where few other fruits will thrive. I once grew a strawberry plant in a repurposed soup can. Sure, it produced only a couple of berries, but by God they were delicious little morsels — and better to have a taste of the good stuff than none at all.
Growing up in the fruit belt of Ontario, I was under the mistaken impression that all strawberries were the same: the bigger the better. But it turns out that the tiny, wild types are superior when it comes to taste. It's as if all of the flavour of a big berry is super-concentrated and then jammed into a smaller package. Wild strawberries (Fragaria vesca) and their cultivated cousins, known as alpines or frais des bois, last forever in the garden too, while the gigantic hybrids (Fragaria x ananassa) tend to fizzle out and stop producing after a few years. Of the hybrids, try a day-neutral variety that will set fruit throughout the growing season ('Seascape' is one) or 'Mara des Bois' for a flavour and fragrance bred to compete with wild types. For something decorative, choose varieties that have colourful flowers — such as 'Lipstick' and 'Pink Panda' — rather than the typical white.
To get ripe berries this season, buy a hanging basket of mature plants that will be ready for picking through the summer. To grow a long-term crop, begin in the spring with mature bare rootstock or leafy plants — don't bother with seed unless you want to grow a big crop of alpines. Dig the plants in so that the crown (where the leaves meet the roots) is just above the soil line. If it's too deep, the crown will rot; if it's too high, it will dry out.
Strawberries require a bright and sunny spot with excellent drainage — they are one of a few edibles that will thrive in moderately sandy soil. In a less than sunny spot, try the 'Mignonette' variety, an alpine that turns out loads of charming, pointy little fruit set against toothy, ornamental leaves.
More important than sun, strawberries grow best when the soil is kept moist, but not soggy. Lay a thick blanket of straw mulch around the plants to moderate the soil moisture and keep weeds out. Add a little bit of compost at planting time but don't overdo it with fertilizer or you'll end up with boring, bland berries.
Except for alpines, all strawberry plants reproduce aggressively by setting off tiny plantlets known as runners. Come fall, you can encourage runners to take root and quickly double your initial investment with a bigger crop next year. Keep your plants alive through the winter by tucking them in with a new blanket of straw. Shallow window-box plants probably won't survive, but you can transfer them to the garden or into much deeper planter boxes or plastic pots and repot next spring.

Snowflake Pin/PendantWilson A. Bentley (1865-1931), also known as "Snowflake Bentley," devoted his life to showing the beauty and variety of snowflakes.

In 1903, he donated a collection of 500 snowflake photographs to the Smithsonian to ensure their safety. He wrote that he was "deeply grateful for your kindly help in thus placing my collection of snow photographs beyond all possibility of loss and destruction, through fire or accident."
