|A Tale Of Two Applications
At one point in time, Chris Tankersley was the technical lead on two different projects. One was an application his company was purchasing from a vendor that was being written in Java (and had previously been written in .NET by another vendor, who then switched to Java, and then abandoned the project), and one was being built in-house with PHP on the IBM i. They were the same product for two different product lines that they offered, but time constraints forced them to build two products in tandem. In the end, the PHP application was completed and delivered to end-users in about 7 months from start to finish, while the former project languished. In this webinar, we compare the two projects in the tools and technologies that were used to integrate with the IBM i backend as well as programming.

Penne al Cognac
Tomato Sauce + Cognac = bliss
I don't know why I hadn't thought of it before…Afer all – Tomato Sauce + Vodka = bliss and Tomato Sauce + Red Wine = bliss. It should have occurred to me.
But it took a recipe from A Cook's Tour of Italy to make me see the proverbial light. If you're looking for a new sauce to put on pasta, this is the perfect place to start. The cognac blends ever so well with the tomato sauce, giving a depth to the sauce that's atypical of most tomato bases sauces out there.
This here recipe is my first recipe from the Umbria region of Italy. Yes, yes, I know. I haven't talked about Umbria as of yet. I'm getting to it…really.
- 2 cups of your favorite tomato sauce
- 2 Tablespoons Tomato Paste
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1/4 cup Cognac
- 2 lbs penne pasta
- 1/2 cup half & half
- salt and pepper (to taste)
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- Chopped Italian Parsley (fresh)
- Grated pecorino cheese
In a sauce pan, heat tomato sauce and tomato paste over medium low heat. Add pepper flakes and allow to get to a warm temperature. Whisk in the cognac and bring to a simmer. Cook at said simmer for 15 minutes, give or take.
In a separate pan, bring pasta water to a boil over medium heat. While boiling, add penne and cook for 12-15 minutes (or according to directions on the box).
While pasta is cooking, add half & half to the tomato sauce and continue to simmer (185 degrees F). Add salt and pepper to taste.
Drain pasta and pour into a serving bowl. Dress with olive oil and allow to sit. Pour in half of the tomato sauce and coat the pasta. Spoon in a small bowl or plate. Top with a ladle-ful or two of the unused sauce. Top with parsley and cheese…although be careful with the amount of cheese used, as it may overwhelm the taste of the sauce.
Serves 8-12

I have a beta testing program for a multilingual webapp using globalite. People register on the website in english or in french.
I use a UserObserver from acts_as_authenticated plugin that send an email with an activation code to validate registration. Depending on which language... I need to send the good email.
Using the after_create within UserObserver, is there a way to pass the language variable in the model or do I need to setup this in the controller?
Or is there any other way to achieve this beside sending a multilingual email hehe.
Thx a lot for your time and advises.
I know that acts_as_authenticated sets up the email as an observer for you, but I'd recommend in favor of removing the observer and sending the email directly from the controller when the user is created. Using observers to send emails obscures code, and brings up the sort of logic issues you are dealing with.

Many of the 2.5 billion household batteries purchased each year are discarded. With the use of batteries for cellular phones and portable computers, there is an increased demand for recycling alternatives.
What You Can Do:
Most batteries are recyclable, though collection programs are difficult to find. Contact your local government first to find out if a drop-off location exists near you. If you have cellular phone or computer batteries, call your local dealer - many of them collect batteries for recycling. If not, hold onto your used batteries until a household hazardous waste collection event is held and drops them off there. It is important to keep batteries away from all fire to prevent explosions.
To encourage businesses to recycle and properly dispose of batteries, and the EPA has designated batteries, such as nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) and small sealed lead-acid batteries, as Universal Wastes.
For More Information:
The following links provide information on recycling batteries.
The batteries section of the EPA Commodities web page, provides the following:
• basic facts on generation and recycling rates,
• the recycling process,
• State and Federal regulations,
• links to industry associations and other information sources.
The Batteries section of the EPA Product Stewardship site , has additional information on Redesign, Reuse and Recycling.

No matter if I am a member of the RL, the 501st, both or neither next July, I am going to be there for sure.
I was so sad over having missed the previous CE back in '07. I was super-excited to go. My cat fell ill and my economy was bad, so I had to choose between going to CE and getting my cat into surgery. I chose the cat, but eventually I had to put her down anyway.

I might be in the minority in all of this, but I actually like the design of this over the NEX-7. It looks way more comfortable in the hand and far more functional than the model it's based on. Is it worth the extra $4K+? Not sure about that. Sounds like Leica strategy in pricing.
There's plenty of current examples of fugly looking cameras (Pentax), but I've found ergonomically they functioned and felt great. Let not forget that what many people thought were ugly at first, became the basis of almost all SLR cameras of the last 30 years in the Canon T-90 design. Luigi Colani's influence on industrial design is very much a big part of our culture today.
This is a bold step by Hasselblad to try and make this category a little better designed. Personal tastes aside, I think once this is held in your hand it might be a different story. I wish it was full frame though and from Fujifilm instead.

Windsor Mountain International Summer Camp hosts families on five-day rustic retreats on 365 acres of rural white-pine forest. Parents, accompanied by their children, can return to the days of bunking in cabins and dorms, roasting marshmallows, and kindling campfires with only a piece of flint and a smartphone. A daily activities schedule abounds with aquatic endeavors, such as canoeing, sailing, and swimming; adventurous challenges, such as zip lining and ropes courses; and creative activities, including music, theater, and arts and crafts. A winding network of hiking trails transports forest explorers along the shores of hidden lakes and through dense pine woodlands, where hikers can seek answers to the philosophical question of whether it's possible to hear a falling tree's cries for help.
Gardner Municipal's par 71 course takes golfers on an 18-hole odyssey through immaculate fairways hugging the north end of Crystal Lake's waters. Astride a whirring golf cart or advancing on foot, golfers bob and weave through the course's tight tree lines, rein in wayward balls, and bribe woodland creatures to improve their lie. Rounds reach their crescendo at the 538-yard, par 5 seventh hole, where drives must trace the fairway as it doglegs to the left while avoiding a vanguard of towering trees along the left side of the fairway.
A multifaceted training area fosters straighter swings and confident putts with a three-tiered practice green and a two-level driving range with space dedicated for long drives, shorter iron shots, and blindfolded sprints through the barrage of practice shots.
Gardner Municipal Golf Course showcases the latest golf styles and equipment in Ben Egan's Golf Shop, which is run by a savvy staff that will help golfers find the clubs and clothes that best suit their style. William's Restaurant and Tavern awaits greenside, where golfers can peruse a menu of prime meat cuts and savory grill fare while deciding whether or not spinach leaves would make a good putting surface.
Course at a Glance:
MUSCLEWORKS GYM is a 24-hour/7days a week access gym. We offer tanning, group exercise classes and have qualified personal trainers available to help you to achieve your fitness goals.
The Give Me Five pass grants access to five of any of the following activities: Kimball Farm's 300-yard driving range, nine-hole pitch-and-putt course, and batting cages will help golfers and batters adjust squeaky swings, and the Animal Adventures exhibit allows guests to interact with reptiles while discussing current events with talking birds. Give Me Fivers can also perform kinetic-energy experiments using colorful balls on the Waterfall Run or Forbidden Mine miniature-golf courses before boarding a bumper boat to faithfully recreate Star Wars on melted ice. The pass may also be used to acquire a play card (a $6 value) from the Olde Sawmill Midway Arcade.
202 Entertainment's miniature-golf course offers pint-sized putters the chance to hone their stroke over 18 holes of family-friendly, obstacle-laden terrain. Grab three friends, siblings, or shillelagh-swinging necromancers for a brisk glide over the course's streams, ponds, and spray fountain, deftly preventing nefarious, hazard-bound sea serpents from tasting the sweet dimples of prismatic orbs as you practice your putt and strut.
First laid out in 1926 by influential course architect Donald Ross, whose 413-course resumé includes Pinehurst No. 2 at Pinehurst Resort, Winchendon School Golf Club's 18-hole course stretches over 5,512 yards of tree-dotted New England countryside. The par 70 layout remains true to its original design, with narrow fairways cut through thick curtains of trees that part intermittently to reveal scenic views of Mount Monadnock and squirrels changing clothes. Small, undulating greens await at the end of each hole, offering a slick blend of bent and poa grass that presents more challenging putts than golfers may expect upon their first visit. Golfers can prepare for their rounds with a bite at the onsite bar and grill or by loading up on golf balls at the pro shop, which sells an array of golf equipment and apparel emblazoned with the Winchendon School Golf Club logo or pictures of clients' favorite mini-golf obstacle.Course at a Glance:

Safer than LSD by Kelly Riggle Hower
Pooped, I lie on the couch, boneless
as a cat, home from substitute teaching.
Today I saw that guy the middle school kids call
The Mullet for his Randy Johnson 'do
Subbing is the perfect job for a woman like me,
a little excitement fix from time to time. Safer than LSD
but I'm guessing just as wild.
They come into the room 25at a time just before
the bell, beautiful, mysterious, and sometimes even
Then 40 minutes to microwave my lunch and I'm ready
for the afternoon.
Sometimes a student stands at my elbow. He tells me I remind him
of the lady with the cat car. She tells me I taught her to write
a poem.
I watch them uncurl, each a fresh leaf, brand new and perfect.
Then home to reheat the burrito casserole for my family
and to tell my ten year old daughter --
who wants to be a middle schooler when she grows up--
the story of my day
I give her the skinny, the fat, the all of it, starting with
"Once upon a time at NOMS...
Fatu's Cooking by Kelly Riggle Hower
My neighbor skims milk in moonlight,
her babies sleep to her laugh.
An old Pa cries "Women and Snakes!" at us
but my Fula girlgriend only charms rice
from husk in her palm-weave basket.
I eat from her plate, I eat from
her hand, with dab
of cow butter beside. We sit half the night
on my Peace Corps chop box
while moon glides over
Mortar and pestle,
ashes from the fire.
I see that I will
come to you again
if only in pieces.
O, Fatu, Moonface,
Moon with a pail on your head
I will shed the skin we wore together
and wake up wearing it
Lost Boys in Almost Town by Kelly Riggle Hower
The car is open-topped but old, convertible
a misleading word for a car open more like a rusty can
in the parking lot at White Center Public Health.
Inside the oxidized red of the car,
two darked-haired boys sleep, flushed-cheeked,
mouths tilted ajar, faces gathering the pattern
of beaded seat covers. they are sixteen, maybe
seventeen, waiting for a girl inside
to get her Depo shot or magic pack of pills.
The blackberry-wild-rose-city-edge hills break through
the tarmac, adding their slashes anding their color to murals splashed
at the clinic doorway, Native-American inspired, funded
by King County one summer to occupy the local
rambling youth in wishful summer camp efforts
to beautify White Center, Tukwila, SeaTac, Des Moines.
The girl leaves the clinic, joins them, they laugh
and nestle in the car. She's the sister of one,
the girlfriend of the other. Thistle-voiced, husky-toned
she begins to tell them the story of her visit.
They listen as if to bedtime tale. Dusk leans in
close to the three of them, Wendy talking the lost boys
into sleep. They could be waitng for Peter Pan.
Will he claim them, raise them in their wreck of a car,
stuck like a barnacle with all the little, delinquent
near-towns clinging to the sides of I-5?
The Interstate flies like a Pirate Ship into the sky.
