In PyCharm, transpiler configurations are called File Watchers. For each supported transpiler, PyCharm provides a predefined File Watcher template. Predefined File Watcher templates are available at the PyCharm level. To run a transpiler against your project files, you need to create a project-specific File Watcher based on the relevant template, at least, specify the path to the transpiler to use on your machine.
On this page:
- Installing and configuring a CoffeeScript transpiler
- Creating a File Watcher
- Previewing the transpilation results without running a transpiler
Download and install the Node.js
framework. The framework is required for two reasons:
- The CoffeeScript transpiler is started through Node.js.
- The Node Package Manager (npm), which is a part of the framework, is also the easiest way to download the transpiler.
For details on using Node.js in PyCharm, see the section Node.js
Alternatively, you can define Node.js as an external tool, as described in the section Configuring third-party tools. This approach is helpful, when you need facilities that are missing in the plugin, for example, the possibility to pass certain parameters as wildcards.
Make sure the following paths are added to the PATH variable:
- The path to the parent folder of the Node.js executable file.
- The path to the Node Package Manager folder (npm).
Install and enable the NodeJS
repository plugin.
The plugin is not bundled with PyCharm, but it is available from the PyCharm plugin repository. Once enabled, the plugin is available at the IDE level, that is, you can use it in all your PyCharm projects.
- Make sure the File Watchers plugin is enabled. The plugin is bundled with PyCharm and activated by default. If it is not, enable the plugin.
Download and install the CoffeeScript transpiler. The easiest way is to use the Node Package Manager (npm),
which is a part of Node.js.
- Switch to the directory where the Node Package Manager (npm) is stored or define a path variable for its parent folder so it is available from any folder.
To run and debug the generated JavaScript code, download the coffee-script through the following command at the command line prompt:
npm install coffee-script
To debug your code, you will need source maps that set correspondence between lines in your CoffeeScript code and the generated JavaScript code, otherwise your breakpoints will not be recognised and processed correctly. Source maps are also generated by the coffee-script tool.
The tool is installed under Node.js so Node.js, which is required for starting the tool, will be specified in the path to it.
The executable files of the transpiler have the name coffee.cmd.
For more information about installing the CoffeeScript transpiler, see https://npmjs.org/package/coffee-script.
PyCharm provides a common procedure and user interface for creating File Watchers of all types. The only difference is in the predefined templates you choose in each case.
- To start creating a File Watcher, open the Project Settings and click File Watchers. The File Watchers page that opens, shows the list of File Watchers that are already configured in the project.
Click the Add button or press Alt+InsertAlt+InsertAlt+InsertAlt+InsertAlt+InsertAlt+InsertAlt+Insert or Ctrl+NAlt+InsertCommand N or Control EnterControl N or Control EnterCommand N or Control Enter
and choose the predefined template from the pop-up list.
- If you are going to run your CoffeeScript without debugging, choose CoffeeScript. Your code will be just translated to JavaScript.
- If you are going to debug your code, choose CoffeeScript Source Map. As a result, the source maps will be created.
- In the Program text box, specify the path to the coffee.cmd file. Type the path manually or click the Browse button and choose the file location in the dialog box that opens.
- Proceed as described on page Using File Watchers: .
Transpiling the CoffeeScript code
When you open a CoffeeScript file, PyCharm checks whether an applicable file watcher is available in the current project. If such file watcher is configured but disabled, PyCharm displays a pop-up window that informs you about the configured file watcher and suggests to enable it.
If an applicable file watcher is configured and enabled in the current project, PyCharm starts it automatically upon the event specified in the New Watcher dialog.
- If the Immediate file synchronization check box is selected, the File Watcher is invoked as soon as any changes are made to the source code.
- If the Immediate file synchronization check box is cleared, the File Watcher is started upon save ( , Ctrl+SCtrl+SCtrl+SCtrl+SCtrl+X, Ctrl+SCtrl+SCtrl+S or Ctrl+Shift+SCtrl+SCommand SCommand SCommand S) or when you move focus from PyCharm (upon frame deactivation).
The transpiler stores the generated output in a separate file. The file has the name of the source CoffeeScript file and the extension js or js.map depending on the transpiler type. The location of the generated files is defined in the Output paths to refresh text box of the New Watcher dialog. Based on this setting, PyCharm detects transpiler output. However, in the Project Tree, they are shown under the source .coffee file which is now displayed as a node.
PyCharm can perform static analyses of your CoffeeScript code without actually running a transpiler and display the predicted transpilation output in the dedicated read-only viewer.
- Open the desired CoffeeScript file in the editor, and right-click the editor background.
- On the context menu, choose . The preview is opened in the dedicated read-only viewer: the left-hand pane shows the original CoffeeScript source code and the right-hand pane shows the JavaScript code that will be generated by the transpiler when it runs.

Sharecropper (Floyd Burroughs), Hale County, Alabama 1936
This photograph was taken by Evans, while he was working for the Farm Security Administration (FSA). The subject of the photograph is one of the tenant farmers, whom Evans had got to know, while documenting life in Alabama's devastated cotton belt during the Depression. Evans intended these photographs to represent an objective, non-propagandist record of the Depression. He strove not to create iconic images, but, instead, to be descriptive and avoid stereotypes. Evans and the writer, James Agee who accompanied him on the project, later collaborated to make a book of photographs and writing, called 'Let Us Now Praise Famous Men.'

Fedora Core 6 Test Drive
See what's new in Fedora Core 6 – the latest release of the Red Hat-based Fedora project.
The latest release of Red Hat's Fedora Core community distribution appeared at the end of October. Fedora Core 6 provides optical improvements, and some interesting developments inside, like optimization of dynamic libraries and enhanced integration of the Xen virtualization solution. You don't need to finish installation to find some of Fedora's new features: the Anaconda installer, which has been around since the early days of Red Hat, has a few changes. Anaconda started using the Yum API in Fedora Core 5, but now users can integrate third-party repositories at the install stage. This feature is useful for professional administrators, as it lets you integrate customized repositories. End users will be interested in other features of the new Fedora, such as support for Intel Macs.

"UNEP has been able to respond quickly and authoritatively to many global biodiversity challenges by tapping into WCMC's expert capabilities."
Resource Type:
Achim Steiner,
UNEP Executive Director and UN Under-Secretary-General
UNEP-WCMC, with the financial support of the UN-REDD programme, wrote a paper on biodiversity monitoring for REDD+ published in the journal "Current Opinion in Environmental Sustainability" as part of ongoing work on REDD+ safeguards. The paper observes the following three challenge to biodiversity monitoring for REDD: choosing which aspects of biodiversity to monitor, the difficulty of attributing particular changes to REDD+ and the likely scarcity of resources for biodiversity monitoring. It proposes three responses which may address these challenges: 1) agreed policy targets that identify what should be monitored; 2) making links to existing biodiversity monitoring and to monitoring to estimate GHG emissions and removals; and 3) developing clear theories of change to assist in determining which changes in biodiversity can be attributed to REDD+. The paper is available on the journal website here.Resource Type: Tools / Applications
On October 16, at the REDD+ Day of CBD COP 11 in Hyderabad, the UN-REDD programme launched a policy brief focusing on multiple benefits and safeguards under REDD+. The paper elaborated on the use of tools and data to support decisions, and presented examples from implementation in REDD+ countries.
REDD+ is increasingly considered to have the potential to contribute to a range of policy goals in addition to climate change mitigation in the forestry sector. It is also recognized that there are social and environmental risks that may arise as the REDD+ mechanism is being implemented.
What has been less widely acknowledged is that avoiding significant risks and securing additional benefits from REDD+ could be the key to the overall success of the mechanism. By securing benefits beyond carbon, REDD+ can draw support from broader social and political constituencies; demonstrate that it enables a wider range of values to be realized; and generates sustainable income sources.
For governments and other stakeholders to adopt a broader approach to REDD+, a strong evidence base is needed to demonstrate that additional benefits will indeed be achieved, and contributions to national and local priorities accomplished. The Policy Brief outlines a series of analytical approaches that can help provide an evidence base to inform REDD+ decisions. It focuses on addressing environmental risks and benefits, and provides examples from Panama, Nigeria, DRC and Indonesia of where these approaches are already used.
The policy brief was drafted collaboratively with UNEP by UNEP-WCMC as part of their work for the UN-REDD Programme.Resource Type: Tools / Applications
The continued growth of human populations and of per capita consumption have resulted in unsustainable exploitation of Earth's biological diversity, exacerbated by climate change, ocean acidification, and other anthropogenic environmental impacts. We argue that effective conservation of biodiversity is essential for human survival and the maintenance of ecosystem processes. Despite some conservation successes (especially at local scales) and increasing public and government interest in living sustainably, biodiversity continues to decline. Moving beyond 2010, successful conservation approaches need to be reinforced and adequately financed. In addition, however, more radical changes are required that recognize biodiversity as a global public good, that integrate biodiversity conservation into policies and decision frameworks for resource production and consumption, and that focus on wider institutional and societal changes to enable more effective implementation of policy.Resource Type: Journal Papers
This paper provides an overview of the current state of knowledge regarding relationships between carbon and biodiversity in tropical forests.Resource Type: Reports
This document provides a basis for estimating the probable impacts of different forest cover creation approaches on the ecosystem-derived benefits of biodiversity, water provision, soil conservation and non-timber forest products.Resource Type: Reports
The establishment of the UN-REDD Programme in Tanzania illustrates real-world challenges in a developing country. These challenges are being addressed by combined donor support to implement a national forest inventory, remote sensing of forest cover, enhanced capacity for measuring, reporting and verification, and pilot projects to test REDD+ implementation linked to the existing Participatory Forest Management Programme.
Our conclusion is that even in a country with considerable donor support, progressive forest policies, laws and regulations, an extensive network of managed forests and increasingly developed locally-based forest management approaches, implementing REDD+ presents many challenges. These are being met by coordinated, genuine partnerships between government, non-government and community-based agencies.Resource Type: Journal Papers
Those who are involved in the development of REDD+ strategies need to consider not only the legal regulations and policies that have been created specifically for REDD+, but also existing frameworks concerning the protection of the environment and land use related sectors like agriculture, mining and spatial planning. This document provides an analysis of national and sub-national policy and legislative frameworks in Indonesia that are relevant to the planning and implementation of practical REDD+ actions.Resource Type: Reports

Every Thursday, All day: -$2.5 Corona, Corona Light & Pacifico; $12 Buckets -$2 off any wing order of 10+ -$2 off THE Buffalo Chicken Sandwich -$2 off the Buffalo Chicken Salad
Communal eating and drinking is the order of the day at Doc's MotorWorks, which feels like it was carved out of an old mechanic's shop. Tall tables and several TV's populate the interior, and damned if I haven't wanted to become an avid sports fan every time I've gone.
Good food, great atmosphere – My wife and I had lunch today at Doc's and it was definitely above average. We decided to order several appetizers and a salad. We ordered a blackened Tilapia salad, boneless buffalo chicken wings, chicken strips and gravy and a chili pie. The food was really good, well cooked and tasty. I would definitely go again
Cheap Drinks-Good Food-& Fun Time – We love going to Doc's with our friends. We always know it is going to be a good time.
Relaxed, Casual Place to Hang Out – Doc's is my local spot in Austin. Its a great place to catch the game, order a blue cheese hamburger on special and don't forget to try their margaritas.
Great Atmosphere – Fun place to go and sit out on the patio. really enjoy watching games at Docs. Great daily specials and they have pretty good appetizer sampler platter. Would recommend with a group. Love sitting on S. Congress.
Fun Spot for Drinks and Grub – This is right in my neighborhood and a great spot to go to for drinks and bar food. Nothing is AMAZING, but nothing I've had is bad, either. The fried mushrooms are good, fish tacos were great (get them grilled), and burgers are pretty good, too. Check out the happy hour specials during the week.
Oh-- fun place to watch sports, too. If a UT game is on, you can watch it along with the legion of Longhorn fans.
Good Outdoor Place – Doc's has great beer and burger specials on Mondays. I really liked sitting outside and watching people walk up and down Congress. It's a little hard to find seating on big "event" nights, but still a nice change of pace from the Austin bar scene.
fun servers! good food! great drinks! – I dont know why so many people wrote such bad reviews for this bar! Every time I go I have a great time! The servers are friendly, cute, and fun! They don't bother you while your trying to sit, relax, and enjoy your night, unlike most sit down restaurants. The servers is fast especially considering how busy it is there! If your visiting Austin Texas I definitely reccommend that you stop by and have a couple drinks!
Ok food, TERRIBLE service – I was extremely disappointed in Doc's. I paid $8.99 for a salad with chicken, bleu cheese and field greens. THAT'S IT. The service was awful. VERY slow. We were there for at least an hour and a half. Not worth the effort.
Really GOOD food and Great Atmosphere!!! – Docs has awesome food. I love the relaxing atmosphere. If you want to go to some place a just relax and eat great food goto Docs. I love there south congress chicken eggrolls and the stuffed avacado. Eveything I have ever eaten at Docs have been wonderful.
great patio, good food – I really enjoy Doc's. I live in the area and go there often to meet friends. The patio is awesome for people watching and my favorite food item is the Chicken Fried Avacado, very GOOD! I'm not much of a beer drinker, but the margaritas rock.

Here we stand, several games into the postseason. Heroes are rising while some hopes are sadly fading. As we roll into spring embracing the best of the best, this April edition will take a final tally of the freshly finished season.
Before getting into the good stuff, a shout out to the Black Aces over in the forums is well deserved. Having NHL team threads being constantly updated is amazing - a fantastic source of rich conversation among fans and poolies alike. If you haven't checked out the coverage section over the course of the season, it is not too late to go share your thoughts on the post-season and beyond. Same can be said about the daily Studs and Duds over the course of the season by a group of well respected writers and posters. Kudos! Thanks for your hard work and dedication through the grind of the season.
That said, DobberHockey is always looking for fresh articles, production and hidden gems. It may not be every day, but fourteen months later, aspiring writers are still getting their cup of coffee. A little dedication goes a long way – look no further than those who made the leap from the forums to the homepage (Steve Laidlaw, Tim Lucarelli, Brendan Ross, Michael Amato, Peter Harling, Ryan Goddard - plus a couple of others who have been brought on as writers of the new website, which is launching soon). The graduates list boasts many familiar names that have become regular DH writers, proving that there is a great avenue for homegrown talent.
If you want to write hockey and have something to say – make yourself heard! I am always available to bounce ideas and discuss niches or points of interest. The Roto guide is another great place to showcase your articles. So what are you waiting for? Get 'er done!
Download the April pdf right here.
Enjoy the playoffs!

"It's looking like my Fantasy Prospects List will be up later today, as I'm full throttle into it this morning. Sorry for the delay - a record-setting delay, as I've never been so late. But with the end of the season, the upcoming launch, and then I was away on the weekend... this slipped through the cracks. If I were to guess, I would say 5pm ET."

Some people love Mario. Some people love Zelda. Some people love Sonic. But when it comes to picking my favorite video game series of all time, I would have to say that I'm partial to the Belmont clan. While not every Castlevania game has been a must-own experience, there have been enough amazing adventures to keep this franchise front and center. Castlevania is one of the few 2D games that is not afraid to stay that way, a series that knows what it can do and does it well. I love Castlevania.
With a lot of long-running game franchises it's hard to pinpoint their greatest moment. Was Mario at his peak with Super Mario 64, or was it years earlier with Super Mario Bros. 3? Is The Twilight Princess really better than Ocarina of Time? Can anything top Sonic the Hedgehog 3? These are questions that video game fans have debated for many years; they are questions that have no easy answer. But that's not a problem with Castlevania; there is one game that stands above the rest. That game is Symphony of the Night, the sixth game in the series and the first Castlevania to hit the PlayStation. On its tenth anniversary Alucard, Dracula and all of the creepy characters from Symphony of the Night have returned to infest your Xbox 360. And regardless of whether you missed it the first time or love it unconditionally, this Xbox Live Arcade version of Symphony of the Night is a must own game.
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night successfully changed the way we played the series, going from a level-based structure to an open world style that rewarded you for exploring every nook and cranny of the castle. Games like Harmony of Dissonance, Aria of Sorrow and Dawn of Sorrow have all taken this open world formula and tried to recreate the magic of Symphony of the Night. Some have come close, but Symphony still stands above the rest thanks to its creepy visuals, amazing level designs, and involving story. This is the game that all other Castlevania games aspire to be.
Symphony of the Night picks up right at the end of Dracula X: Rondo of Blood, where Richter Belmont, the legendary vampire hunter, is fighting to defeat Dracula and his menacing castle once and for all. Even though Richter is successful, Dracula's castle reappears several years later. Convinced that something is wrong, Alucard (the lovechild of Dracula and a human woman) sets out to uncover the mysteries of this castle and defeat whatever it is that is lurking inside. Along the way Alucard starts to put the pieces together and realize that the villain of this story may not be Dracula at all, but instead Richter. It's up to Alucard to determine what is going on and put a stop to it.
At first it looks like Alucard is ready to rush in and save the day, but it won't take long before the Grim Reaper shows up and steals all of our hero's equipment. This means that you have to start from scratch and earn back all of your abilities, weapons and spells. To do this you must explore a gigantic castle that has all sorts of secret passages, locked doors and creepy enemies waiting to kill you. What set this Castlevania apart from all of the other games in the series is that this time around you could go where ever you wanted, essentially carving your own path trying to find the items you need to go even deeper into the castle. While a lot of the game is just waiting for you to explore, you will have to deal with a lot of areas you can't access until you get a certain relic, earn a new ability or wear a certain combination of items. This means that you'll constantly have to search around and backtrack when you find a new item.
Along the way you'll run into quite a few cool looking enemies, from your basic zombies to magicians to decapitated heads and so on so forth. There's no shortage of creatures to sink your teeth into, all of which have their own attacks and patterns. Even better are the bosses, which seem to take every major monster movie character and turn them into larger than life enemies that will pound you down to size. The bosses in this game are one of the highlights and you definitely feel a sense of accomplishment when you've taken one of them out.
As you kill these various monsters and excise the bosses you'll be earning experience points, similar to a role-playing game. Earn enough of these points and Alucard will level up, effectively making him stronger and improving his stats. But this is not all about leveling up your character, the items and abilities also play a major role in this game. There is a huge selection of weapons (mostly swords) just laying around Dracula's castle and just as much armor, rings and other items that you can equip. Like any great role-playing game it's important that you pay attention to your inventory and make use of all of your items at the most opportune times.
Even more important than the weapons are the various abilities and familiars. As you play through Symphony of the Night you will discover that Alucard can change into other creatures (such as a bat, mist and a wolf). You are also able to bring a familiar along, which will give you a computer-controlled helper that will protect you as you're fighting other enemies. And that's not all; Alucard is also able to cast spells, double jump, and other interesting things. By the end of the game you'll feel almost overwhelmed with all of the cool abilities Alucard has been granted. If you have any hope of finding every nook and cranny of this castle then it's imperative that you learn how to use every ability afforded to you.

text: I have a 1.8GHz dual processor G5 and I since it is not marked on the case and based on the research that I have done I believe the this tower has PCI slots and not PCIx. However, standard PCI cards don't fit into the slots but PCIx cards do. Are these actually PCI slots and if so is there a way to make them compatible with PCIx? I have a PCI version of a card and a PCIx version of the same card, but the PCI doesn't fit and the PCIx is recognized by the OS but does not seem to communicate with the computer. If anyone has any information about what happened with the June 2004 1.8GHz dual G5 PCI slots I would love to know more.

Lafayette: "I know that all men, whether they are straight, gay or George W. Motherfuckin' Bush, are terrified of the pussy." A-freakin'-men!
Anyway, post your picks for the best True Blood dialogue here.

heh. I was just comeing to mention this because there were a few bar patrons who called Sookie a retard. Also, am I going to hell for laughing every time some one called he that? ;)
The lady Rattray, after Sookie takes their orders: "I think she's retarded."
I don't know why, but this made me laugh:
Sookie: Guess what happened today?!
Grandma: You got a date!
Sookie: [pause combined with 'oh lord, not again' expression] ........ Nnnooo.

I don't know the exact quote, so someone who has DVR should get on this, but that bit when Lafayette was saying he would call that man Santa Clause was awesome.
"He ain't scared. He's too big to be scared. I like a big man. Look at that belly. You can be my Santa Claus."
I also liked when he told Tara that she should not be allowed anywhere near any job "that calls for actual interaction with people."

I liked Sam's argument to the synthetic blood and vampires : "Are you willing to pass up all your favorite foods and spend the rest of life drinking Slim Fast?"
I'm glad you posted that, because I was just coming here to comment on it but couldn't remember exactly what he said. It's a really good illustration of the situation the vampires are in. I do think it's interesting that the synthetic blood comes in different blood types, but even then it must be like the difference between chocolate Slim Fast and vanilla. ;-)

I can't remember hearing a Cajun accent (or attempted Cajun) on TV for a long time (in movies once in a while, sure)...the last one was, maybe, Gambit/Remy from the `90s X-Men cartoon ? And that sure brought some recall when Sam called Sookie "cher" (Anna Paquin having played Rogue in the live-action X-Men films, a character that Gambit often called cher in the cartoon and comics).

OT: I totally think of Gambit from the X-Men cartoon whenever I hear Rene speak, Kris_AB! The difference for me is that I really liked Gambit from the X-Men series/comics, and Rene gives me an ooky vibe. I so don't get the Rene love.

I know right! He grabs two sandwiches, and puts them on his shirt in lieu of a plate. Such a grub. I love watching everything Jason does.
I don't have the episode with me, but the clip on the news of Newlin and Nan Flanagan:
NEWLIN: "I will not speak to her directly."
NEWS ANCHOR: "Well that will make it difficult to have a dialogue."
...or something like that.

CRIME HOT SPOTS: Church Thefts
Updated: Friday, March 8 2013, 07:29 PM EST
COLUMBUS – A Linden church has become a constant target for copper thieves.
Crooks have been stealing gutters & trim from the First Church of Christ, 1191 Oakland Park Avenue, for the past several months.
The most recent break-in happened earlier this week when thugs cut holes though a chain link fence, twice within 48 hours.
"We've tried to patch the holes, they are cutting through to fast," said Lanardo Butler, Church Administrator, "we can't keep up with the patching".
Early Saturday morning, thieves ripped gutters and trim from the top of the roof, they returned Monday morning and walked off with an additional $6,000 worth of copper.
"You are talking tens of thousands of dollars to replace all of this, it's not easy to come by," said Butler.
If you have any information about these crimes, Call Columbus Police at 614-645-4545.

Booklisters, as usual, were all over the personal-reading map in 2013. The list below of our favorites boasts all variety of stuff, including two alternate-world sagas with numbers in the titles; a little WWII history; cookbooks, of course; a crossword puzzle collection; and a book about cadavers. My advice: if Joanne Wilkinson convinces you to try her recipe for slow-cooker oatmeal (and, trust me, she will), don't let Annie Bostrom talk about Mary Roach while you're eating. Typically, by the time I finished this column I realized that there was no room for my own contribution. So I'll just tell you now: Beautiful Ruins, by Jess Walter. Italy, the making of Cleopatra, Richard Burton at his most drunkenly eloquent—What's not to like?
11/22/63, by Stephen King
I have never read Stephen King. (I don't do scary—in life, in literature, or at amusement parks.) But the topic of 11/22/63 was irresistible to a Kennedy-phile. I listened to it, and while there were a few gory parts, I only had to cover my ears twice. —Ilene Cooper
1Q84, by Haruki Murakami
While it might not have been the best book I read this year, it was certainly the longest, and it left me with little time for much additional personal reading. But despite its length, or, perhaps, because of it, it made for a decidedly surreal, immersive experience, not unlike the one taken by the main characters, who find themselves in a familiar but somehow different alternate reality. —Ben Segedin
A Bridge Too Far, by Cornelius Ryan
A friend and I made the momentous (and possibly unwise) decision to play It Never Snows, a gargantuan nine-by-four-foot board game that re-creates the Allies' doomed Market Garden campaign against the Germans in WWII. The seven weeks it took to play the game allowed me plenty of time to read this tense seminal account of the historic failure. Footnote: history repeated itself; I, as the Allies, lost big time. —Daniel Kraus
The Cat's Table, by Michael Ondaatje
The problem: a long, housebound winter weekend, spent with a persistent head cold—and an unresolved mouse situation. The solution: complete escape into this wonderful 2011 Editors' Choice selection! —Gillian Engberg
Cocktail Time, by P. G. Wodehouse
Somehow I managed to reach my forties without reading Wodehouse—an embarrassment finally remedied by a chance purchase on summer vacation. I may have read a better book on my own last year, but this one gets the nod because I know I've made the acquaintance of an author I'll be reading again and again. What was it like? As I was the last person on earth who hadn't read Wodehouse, you already know! —Keir Graff
Good Housekeeping 400-Calorie Comfort Food, by the eds. of Good Housekeeping
I got my twentysomething son, whose diet consists mainly of frozen pizza and chicken wings, hooked on oatmeal made in the slow cooker. That small triumph inspired me to search out more classic comfort food—a sure cure for the wintertime blues. —Joanne Wilkinson
I Want My MTV: The Uncensored Story of the Music Video Revolution, by Rob Tannenbaum and Craig Marks
In this era of on-demand everything, listening to the audiobook of this oral history of how video killed the radio star was a throwback treat. Great stories of sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll will have you running to the Internet to view long-forgotten videos (trust me, Billy Squier's career-destroying "Rock Me Tonite" is still dreadfully funny). —Rebecca Vnuk
Madame Bovary, by Gustave Flaubert
I've read one of my favorite novels, Madame Bovary, in all its various translations. (Oh, that I could read it in the original French!) This year I read the latest translation, by Lydia Davis. I can't imagine that the original French is any more beautiful than the crystalline English into which she has translated Flaubert's words. —Brad Hooper
The New York Times Relaxing Sunday Crosswords: 75 Puzzles from the Pages of the New York Times, by Will Shortz
On Sunday mornings, I like to unwind with a cup of coffee and a crossword puzzle. But Mr. Shortz got this title wrong: he should have called it Hair-tearing Sunday Crosswords. Or Put Off All Your Assigned Reading until You Finish This Goddamn Puzzle Sunday Crosswords. Or, honestly, Discover You're Really Not That Great at Crosswords Sunday Crosswords. —Sarah Hunter
Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers, by Mary Roach
"Weird Stuff I Know Thanks to Mary Roach" is the mental list I draw from to end an awkward silence at the dinner table—or make one more awkward, as the situation dictates. This was my first venture into Roach's canon of curiosities, and I tumbled helplessly in love with her cheerful take on rotting bodies and severed heads. Science is neat! And gross. —Annie Bostrom
The Truth about Style, by Stacy London
My Friday nights? I'm just gonna be honest here. They were mostly spent with Stacy London and Clinton Kelly as they offered tips to the fashion-challenged on TLC's What Not to Wear (Color! Pattern! Texture! Shine!). But now the show's over (sniff), and, alas, I must continue to dress. Luckily, I have Stacy's style guide—part memoir, part makeover, part therapy—to steer me right. Trust me, it's fab. —Annie Kelley
The Warrior's Apprentice, by Lois McMaster Bujold
This summer I returned to Bujold's Vorkosigan universe via audiobooks—perfect for long walks early in the morning to avoid the heat. These titles are rich in involving, interesting characters; multiple imaginative plotlines; witty dialogue filled with amusing banter; and a tone ranging from humorous to romantic to life-threateningly dangerous. Pure pleasure. —Joyce Saricks
Where'd You Go, Bernadette, by Maria Semple
Arrested Development remains my all-time favorite TV show (no, I still haven't seen The Wire), so it's no surprise I devoured Semple's book. Like the show (Semple is a former Arrested Development screenwriter), the characters and plotting are brilliant, proving that—banana stand or not—Semple definitely earns the esteemed title of "Mr. Manager." —Katharine Fronk

When SITA Deutschland GmbH wanted 12 new state-of-the-art waste disposal trucks, with specially developed containers, it relied on the partnership of Becker Machine Construction and Containerbau Hameln for high quality and on-time delivery.
Containerbau Hameln, which produced the containers for the new trucks, has been a partner of Becker Machine Construction for 27 years and is an official member of SSAB's "Hardox in My Body" program.
"Thanks to Hardox, no braces were necessary to stabilize the containers," explains Volker Greiner, associate of Containerbau Hameln. "Instead there is a depression on the sides, which keeps the containers from extending or deforming."
Because of the light but strong Hardox plates, it was possible to construct the sides using 3.2 mm Hardox and the floor in 4.0 mm. The effect: the containers are a ton lighter and the truck with trailer can take up to two tons more load. This is a gain of 20 percent more payload.
"We're pleased once again to have proved the outstanding quality of Hardox," says Jens Fehling, regional sales manager at SSAB.
In addition, the containers have a moveable inner wall, which makes it possible when collecting glass, for example, to separate the glass by color in two different compartments. This saves gas and time.
At the delivery of the trucks in Hassfurt, Germany, on December 16, SITA representative Gerd Baumann praised the commitment of all the parties involved.
"Quality requires reliability, and reliability has a price," says Baumann. "But thanks to their advantages as opposed to cheaper alternatives, these high-quality trucks save costs through higher work efficiency and a longer lifespan."
Jürgen Mielke, CEO of Becker Machine Construction, is also very pleased. "Thanks to its partners' commitment and ideas, SITA has achieved an innovative and unique solution which is tailor-made for its use in waste disposal," he says.

Buddy Fletcher: Financial Genius — or a Fake?
Young, African American, and rich, Buddy Fletcher was a dream alumnus for Harvard—a Wall Street philanthropist who gave millions to endow professors and support civil rights. And then his whole world came tumbling down.
EVEN IN THE DAKOTA, the storied apartment building on New York's Upper West Side, home to such cultural icons as Yoko Ono and Lauren Bacall, Buddy Fletcher stood out. African American, fantastically accomplished, and wealthy, Fletcher had grown up in modest circumstances, gone to Harvard, and graduated as "first marshal" of his class in 1987. From there he hit Wall Street, earned millions before he turned 25, and started his own firm, Fletcher Asset Management. By the time he was 30, the company was operating as a hedge fund and boasting of triple-digit returns. Fletcher made multimillion-dollar donations to Harvard, and gave away millions more to museums, arts groups, and civil rights causes.
BusinessWeek and the New Yorker, among many other publications, wrote glowing profiles, and in 2009 Forbes named him one of the country's 20 richest African Americans. With a net worth of $150 million, Fletcher was just a few spots down the list from Oprah Winfrey, Bill Cosby, and Tiger Woods.
Fletcher dressed in a Gatsby-esque cavalcade of beautifully tailored suits and traveled around Manhattan in a Bentley driven by his full-time chauffeur. He bought a $5.9 million castle in upstate Connecticut. In New York, he rented offices for his hedge fund at the top of the GM Building on Fifth Avenue. There, rising 48 floors from the southeast corner of Central Park, he could gaze down upon the city in every direction.
Then there was his home, Apartment 52 at the Dakota, which, as the New Yorker put it, was "decorated with the apparent intention of recreating, as nearly as possible, the fusty, woody interior of the Harvard Club." That was just one of four Dakota residences Fletcher had purchased over the course of two decades. In addition to two apartments for himself, he'd bought one for his mother and another for his employees to use.
Then, at the beginning of 2010, Fletcher informed the building's board that he intended to buy still another Dakota residence. The owner of Apartment 50 had passed away, and Fletcher was ready to write a $5.7 million check for the two-bedroom.
As others had before, the members of the Dakota board — themselves mostly high-powered financial types — examined Fletcher's financial statement, including an assessment of his net worth and records from his hedge fund. It was all standard operating procedure — but then the board came back with an answer Fletcher did not expect: no. Fletcher, the board said, could not afford to buy another apartment. In fact, it couldn't say for sure how he was paying for the other four.
Buddy Fletcher, according to his neighbors in the Dakota, wasn't the wealthy investor he appeared to be, but the head of a financially opaque hedge fund who was struggling to pay his bills. The news traveled fast to Cambridge, where the question was nervously asked: Was one of Harvard's highest-profile philanthropists not what he seemed?
Alphonse "Buddy" Fletcher Jr. — he got the nickname as a little kid — and his younger brothers, Geoffrey and Todd, grew up middle-class in Waterford, Connecticut. His father, Alphonse Sr., originally from Louisiana, worked as a technician at the Electric Boat submarine-making factory in nearby Groton. His mother, Bettye, was a public school principal and administrator. Firm believers in education and hard work, they couldn't have been prouder when Buddy got into Harvard.

TORONTO, Ont. – A 42-year-old man is dead after a hit-and-run in the city's east-end Tuesday evening.
The man was struck by two civilian vehicles on Midland Avenue and Kilcullen Castle Gate near McNicoll Avenue shortly before 5:30 p.m., Const. Clint Stibbe said.
The man was trying to cross to the east side of Midland Avenue, south of Kilcullen Castle Gate when he was struck by a vehicle making a left turn onto Kilcullen Castle Gate, police said. The driver of the vehicle remained on the scene.
The impact threw the pedestrian into the southbound lanes of Midland Avenue where the man was struck by a second vehicle. The driver fled the site of the collision, police said.
No vehicle description is available. But police said the vehicle likely sustained front-end damage.
The man was pronounced dead at the scene.

These are great looking and sturdily built. A nice little surprise when wearing french cuffs! I'll probably borrow them at some point!
Already received about 20 compliments so preeeeeeettty niccce. I would buy them again if I hadn't already. Got a nice heft to them as well
My husband loved these cuff links, quality seems great, and I can't wait for him to get to try them out!
I wear these all the time over more expensive cuff links simply because they are nice enough to dress down a more formal outfit. Great purchase.
I received many thanks from my boyfriend whom opened these on Christmas. He loves them and can't wait to show them off.
These were a gift for my boss and were a big hit! They are as pictured and I recommend for others! Great price too.
I purchased these for my husband as a stocking stuffer. He has not opened them yet but I was very excited when I did. The cuff links are not too heavy and they are well made. They are a conversation starter and I know these will look great with all of his french cuff shirts.
I bought these for my boyfriend for Christmas and I'm so excited to give them to him, I'm giving them early! He's a big war buff and is going to love them. They are lightweight but seem sturdy, look really nice, but aren't too much. They definitely look classy and he'll be able to wear them for a wedding we're going to in a couple of weeks. Really great price, too!
Love the design. I only wish you could choose the caliber of your cuff links. Sounds weird when I wrote it down. Ohh well
These things make a statement. They've caught so many peoples attention and I've gotten quite a bit of compliments every time I've worn them. Construction feels a bit light but I haven't hand any issues.

A Devotional Series by Charles H. Spurgeon
Wednesday, February 13, 2013
"Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. Beloved, now are we the sons of God." --1 John 3:1,2
"Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us. Consider who we were, and what we feel ourselves to be even now when corruption is powerful in us, and you will wonder at our adoption. Yet we are called "the sons of God." What a high relationship is that of a son, and what privileges it brings! What care and tenderness the son expects from his father, and what love the father feels towards the son! But all that, and more than that, we now have through Christ. As for the temporary drawback of suffering with the elder brother, this we accept as an honour: "Therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not." We are content to be unknown with him in his humiliation, for we are to be exalted with him. "Beloved, now are we the sons of God." That is easy to read, but it is not so easy to feel. How is it with your heart this morning? Are you in the lowest depths of sorrow? Does corruption rise within your spirit, and grace seem like a poor spark trampled under foot? Does your faith almost fail you? Fear not, it is neither your graces nor feelings on which you are to live: you must live simply by faith on Christ. With all these things against us, now--in the very depths of our sorrow, wherever we may be--now, as much in the valley as on the mountain, "Beloved, now are we the sons of God." "Ah, but", you say, "see how I am arrayed! my graces are not bright; my righteousness does not shine with apparent glory." But read the next: "It doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him." The Holy Spirit shall purify our minds, and divine power shall refine our bodies, then shall we see him as he is.

Roasted Spiced Applesauce
Author Notes: I was inspired to make this sauce after reading wellfed's blog, who was inspired by a Martha recipe. most people who have received this sauce from me have returned their jars within a day. they say that they have a bite to taste it, intending to serve it after dinner, but then end up eating the entire jar! it's spicy, sweet, satisfying and reminiscent of the holidays and excellent if heated slightly and served over really good vanilla ice cream or yogourt. - thefood
Serves about 10 small jars
- 16 apples of your choosing. I would suggest whatever is in season at the time (I recently used a blush gala apple which was devine)
- 1/2 cup apple cider or juice
- 2 tablespoons liquid honey
- 10 tablespoons Brown Sugar. If you would like a more spicy & less sweet sauce, reduce to 8. If your apple is very sweet, also reduce.
- Juice of 2 lemons
- 1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
- 2 pinches kosher salt
- 2 teaspoons really good vanilla (as ina would say)
- 2 vanilla beans (optional - but totally worth it)
- Additional lemon juice (to add to water to keep apples from browning)
- You will also require: 8-12 mason jars with lids (depending on the sizes you choose) and most likely vanilla ice cream or frozen yogourt mmmm
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F
- Peel & core apples & cut into chunks about 1" X 1" in size. Place into a large bowl filled with cold water and lemon juice (about 1/2 a lemon's worth of juice per 8 apples)
- In a large roasting pan (I sometimes split into two small roasting pans), add the apple cider or juice, honey, brown sugar, lemon juice, spices & salt. Scrape seeds from vanilla bean pod in as well and whisk all ingredients to combine. Toss the apples until they are coated with mixture. Cut vanilla pod lengthwise down the spine and place one piece on each side of the roasting pan and place in oven. Roast until the apples are very soft (about 45 minutes). NOTE: I prefer to have some chunks left in my applesauce, so I roast until the corners of the chunks are still in tact when you mash them. If you prefer smooth applesauce, roast a little longer than that.
- Remove from oven and let cool for about 10-15 minutes. Use a form to mash apples until you have reached your desired consistency. At this point you can serve the applesauce hot if you wish.
- Let applesauce cool completely before spooning into your chosen storage vessels (I really like to use small, jam sized jars with lids as they are easy and elegant to give as gifts). For presentation's sake, I add one of the vanilla bean pod halves to the jars standing straight up on the side of the jar. This sauce keeps in the refridgerator for about a week and can be frozen as it thaws nicely.
- TIP: Depending on the type of apple you use, after roasting there may be a lot of liquid in the pan. Since I prefer a chunky applesauce, I usually drain the liquid into a pot and heat over medium until the liquid reduces into a thick sauce that can be poured over ice cream, yogourt or even used in other recipes (granola, baked goods, etc).

A delicious all grown up applesauce! I made it in my small countertop roaster, it stayed very juicy probably because it was covered. Took longer for my apples to get tender, toward the end I put the lid on askew and it thickened up perfectly. My DH enjoys it with just whipped cream for dessert.

I used some of this to fill out the fruit required in a banana bread recipe (which I actually baked as muffins). I had some on hand from last winter because the cardamom flavor in the applesauce was a bit too strong for my liking. (I probably just put too much in, but also, as I've noted elsewhere, I tend to find cardamom to be quite assertive. I think it's one of those spices that speaks more loudly to some than others.) In any event, it was among the best banana bread I've ever made -- and I've made at least a dozen loaves a year for more than two decades now. I'm going to try substituting the applesauce for almost all of the banana called for, using one banana instead of four. ;o)

Love the idea of putting vanilla in! Changed it up a little, used spartan apples, substituted pear juice for apple, and used ground allspice and organic cinnamon and it tastes amazing! Easy recipe with awesome results. Thanks kindly!

I made this with "Arkansas Black" apples. (They were on sale at the orchard and labeled as good for making sauce.) My apples got really dry in the oven. Next time I would cover the roasting pan with foil. But the flavor was amazing. I substituted cardamom pods for the ground cardamom and just fished them out along with the vanilla bean pods at the end. I also put the finished sauce in sterilized jars so I can store some in my pantry. Good stuff.

I had the same problem, using a variety of Northern CA apples . . . so I just put them in a big pot with some water, mashed up the chunks with a potato masher, scraped out the roasting pan and sloshed some more water around in it, which I added to the pot, and cooked it all on the stove for about five minutes, and then canned it. Really tasty! I like your idea of putting cardamom pods in and then fishing them out, as the freshly ground cardamom seeds in mine ended up coming through too strong. ;o)

This looks heavenly! I have about ten pounds of Fuji "uglies" (the ones that look like you just got them off the tree in your backyard, not at the store . . . . . . but if you're cutting them up anyway, who cares?!!) from the Farmers' Market, that I've been too busy to do anything with. You've just provided the BEST solution! Thank you so much for posting this!! I'm making this over the weekend, and plan to use every jar as a lovely gift to myself. ;o) P.S. I think I'll use some good cider vinegar instead of lemon juice, just to see how it tastes. Stay tuned . . . . .

Booby traps to catch sneak-eating. Jabs about jiggly thighs. Teasing about tummies and hints about needing to exercise.
Well-meaning parents trying to subtly address their children's weight issues instead might be the biggest bullies in their kids' lives, according to a recent study in the journal Pediatrics about "weight-based victimization."
"There still remains the widespread perception that a little stigma can be a good thing, that it might motivate weight loss," said Dr. Rebecca M. Puhl, a clinical psychologist and the study's lead author, in an interview with The New York Times.
But the reality is these subtle measures may cause the opposite and worse. According to the study, criticism and teasing can be "extremely damaging." Even poking fun at your kids for their younger "baby fat" days can be hurtful since the study found formerly overweight kids remain vulnerable to weight-based victimization and its ill effects.
The study took 361 teens at two weight loss camps, ages 14 to 18, and surveyed them about bullying and—for the first time in an extensive study, researchers believe—asked them who was bullying them and when.
Sixty-four percent of the teens said they'd been bullied about their weight, and while taunting by their peers was tops, 37 percent said their parents got in on the act, too.
Of those who reported bullying from their parents in the past year, 11 percent said it happened often or very often, 12 percent said sometimes and 14 percent said it was rare.
Researchers cited at-home bullying about weight as a "considerable concern."
"Research indicates that weight-based teasing from multiple sources (e.g., peers and parents) may be associated with increased emotional health problems for youth," the study stated.
According to the most recent California Healthy Kids Survey, a quarter of Poway Unified School District fifth-graders reported being teased about their bodies at school. Nine percent said they consider themselves "too fat," while 13 percent said they were "too skinny." The rest—78 percent—found their bodies to be "just right." (A survey of older PUSD students did not include questions about body image.)
The fallout from weight-based teasing can be extreme, with some youth feeling suicidal. Other effects range from the physical—binge eating, preferring sedentary behaviors—to the mental—low self-esteem and depression.
Researchers offer strategies for addressing children's weight problems, including avoiding "fat talk" and promoting health over weight here.
