Never miss another 'Suffocation' show
A four piece thrash metal band from Colorado, who take influences from different genres of music including jazz, punk and classical.
The band, who formed in 2004. self-released two albums before catching the attention of England's Candlelight Records and third album, Burn, was released in early spring of 2009. Incorporating blisteringly fast guitar riffs, machine-like drumming, groovy bass lines, searing leads, and hard-hitting vocals, Havok is able to maintain that punch-you-in-the-throat style of music.
Fast forward to 2011 and the Denver-based thrashers return with their second album. The band turns the heat up with new thrash anthems. Time Is Up immediately showcases the band's highly skilled musicianship. Blistering guitar work once again highlights the album.

Research Institution:
AbstractSEAS incorporates multiple measures into a single, integrated toolset, and includes objective and subjective measures of performance, workload and situation awareness. Using an iterative method of development, this project will result in a fully functional toolset that can be flexibly expanded and adapted to different domains. Our SEAS toolset is based on a modular framework that allows easy experimental set-up, performance measure administration and data interpretation into a single comprehensive tool suite. Phase II work will focus on implementing proprietary metrics, coding the modules, and iteratively testing the toolset both to establish overall usability of the SEAS toolset and to support Navy experimentation effort. Phase III research will involve expanding our SEAS toolset to other domains. The primary utility of SEAS is to provide a comprehensive assessment of both individual and team performance, to include more sensitive and diagnostic measures such as Individual and Team Situation Awareness (SA), Shared Situation Awareness (SSA), and Workload, across a variety of military command and control (C2) system evaluation environments. Our SEAS toolset will provide the capability to deliver objective measures of these parameters to warfighters engaged in Undersea Warfare missions for the purposes of either training evaluation or technology/capability assessment.

Commonwealth Health Corporation, the parent company of The Medical Center based in Bowling Green has been named one of Gallup's 2014 Great Workplaces, and company officials say they did it by keeping employees engaged.
"We've always been careful about who we choose to work here, and once we find them, we want to keep them," said Commonwealth Health Corp. Human Resources Vice President Lynn Willliams.
Registered Nurse Jenny Goad says it's pride in her job that's kept her here for fourteen years.
"We take alot of pride in what we do. I'm always glad to see somebody say, how far was your drive? Oh, it was 45 minutes or an hour. Thank you for coming here for your care. That makes us very proud, and allowing your employees to be more involved in the decision making... voting.. attitude... team play... that helps completely. That's helps completely," said Goad.
"We know you have to have passionate and engaged employees to create and exceptional patient care experience. Keeping that connection there, and helping them stay connected to just that... what got them into health care to begin with, and making sure that stays front of mind with them, and front of mind to us, will help all of us win in this journey together," said Williams.
For Radiation Therapist Melanie Wilson, that journey began 16 years ago.
"I had an entry level position, and from there, I've held several different titles here at the medical center while they allowed me to continue and further my education. The Medical Center gives me the best equipment and the best people to allow me to do my job the best that I can," said Wilson.
Wilson says having that confidence is essential in her field.
"I work in the cancer center, so a smile is required even if you don't want to. I have to be on my best everyday because my patients don't feel very good, and I don't get to have a bad day," said Wilson.
Lucky for her patients, Wilson says here, she rarely has one! Not only is Commonwealth Health Corporation one of only 36 companies in the world to earn the honor this year, Williams says it's the first health care system based in Kentucky to ever receive the award.

Let $\pi: Y \to X$ be an etale morphism of finite-type schemes over a field $k$. Let $Z$ be a $k$-scheme. Suppose we have a morphism $f:Y \to Z$. When does $f$ descend to a morphism $g: X \to Z$? Is the answer simpler if any of $X,Y, Z$ are affine?
For a faithfully flat morphism $\pi\colon Y\to X$ of finite type, the morphism $f$ will descend if and only if the composites of it with the two projection morphisms $Y\times_X Y \to Y$ coincide. Etale maps are flat, and faithfully flat if surjective. If your etale morphism $\pi$ is Galois, then the second condition just says that $f$ is invariant under the action of the Galois group.

Charles Manners Lushington
Charles Manners Lushington (1 August 1819 – 27 November 1864)[1][2] was an English Conservative[3] politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1854 to 1857.
Lushington was born at Sanderstead, Surrey, the son of Stephen Rumbold Lushington and his wife Annie Elizabeth Harris.[1] He served in the East Kent Yeomanry Cavalry of which he became captain in November 1853.[4]
He was elected as a Member of Parliament (MP) for the borough of Canterbury at a by-election in August 1854,[5] after the borough's writ of election had been suspended when a Royal Commission found that there had been extensive corruption. Lushington held the seat until the 1857 general election,[2] which he did not contest.[3] At the 1859 general election, he unsuccessfully contested the borough of Nottingham.[6]
Lushington lived at Norton Court, Kent.[1] He died at Boulogne at the age of 45.[7]
Lushington married, on 5 May 1846, Henriette Stafford Northcote, daughter of Sir Henry Stafford Northcote, 7th Baronet and Agnes Mary Cockburn.[1] She died at Florence 20 January 1900, in her 80th year.[8] Their daughter Agnes married Walter Phillimore, 1st Baron Phillimore.[9]

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Jan 01st, 2004
Running Time: 103
Director: Daeshim Tokei
Company: Nectar Entertainment
Cast: Ryan Star, Lana Moore, Phoenix Ray, Sabrine Maui, Tallon, Evan Stone, Dolorian, Hollie Stevens, Ashley Long, Loni, Paulina (I)
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: All-Sex
Younger couples, raised to expect the MTV aesthetics. A glam take on light-hearted vignette porn.
Five vignettes that range from steamy to campy and provide a variety of sexual positions, and a variety of quality. The most beautiful part about this title is that there is absolutely no dialogue. No dialogue means no bad delivery of said dialogue. Okay, maybe that's not as beautiful as Ashley Long sucking a cock, or uber-hot newbie Paulina in bed with Phoenix Ray.
And while the lack of dialogue may not be as awesome as the youthful enthusiasm of Ryan Star eagerly learning multiple lessons from her teacher at Nectar University, let's admit it's still a pretty damn good thing. Actually all of the women are hot. Nectar casts very well.
New director Daeshim Tokei was right more than it was wrong, but the pacing was thrown off in scenes like the Ashley Long/Dick Delaware scene by what looks like lighting errors. I'm very upset about that - I was digging that scene.
But Damn! The sight of Lana Moore and Sabrina Maui working over each other before a mauling Talon in a locker room scene that leaves all three as drenched as if they had been in a sauna, ensures that there will always be a future in porn for Lana, Sabrina Maui, Talon and Daeshim Tokei.

Hey, I'm León!
Hi there, I´m a 30 year old single man who studied Journalism in Madrid. I worked in media (Documentary and Photography) for a few years and a couple more in Scuba Diving and recreational boating. Then I came to Tulum and started a Veggie, Super Food, Healthy Restaurant named Co.ConAmor. I am working on that while I enjoy myself kitesurfing, scuba-diving and exploring the surrounding areas... it´s paradise.
I love travelling and I have been doing that for a long time. Now I´m travelling more around Mexico. I like books, movies, internet, musical instruments and dancing. I like cooking and drinking beer and wine.
I will help you with tips and insides and hook you up with the right people and activities if you are in want of that.

exellent quality. mimicks my tribal symbol. wrinkles badly .good crisp look though
daughter loves them
01/02/2014By Dan
A bit disappointed. They look nice until you wash them and then it goes downhill. Winkle badly and are not as soft as other 350 thread count sheets we have. We expected more for sheets that cost this much. Would not recommend or buy again.
04/12/2013By farmgirl
Wow these are the most beautiful sheets I ever had. they are soft the color..rust is the most unusual color ....it goes well with the new paisley comforter I bought. They wash easily...had to touch up the pillow cases with an iron.

'Tis the Season For Shakespeare
You are going to hear a lot more than this about Shakespeare this year with WFSU! We recently received a very special grant that enables us to partner with the Southern Shakespeare Festival and a few other special places and people to create some new and exciting content around Shakespeare and his works! But for now…
'Tis the season for witches, ghosts and magic! In Shakespeare's time, many people believed in the existence of supernatural elements and witchcraft. The dominant fear of kings and queens in the 16th and 17th centuries was that the devil or antichrist, through the agency of the Pope, would topple the English monarchy.
In this PBS LearningMedia collection focusing on Macbeth, Hamlet and The Tempest, your students will examine supernatural beliefs during the 16th and 17th centuries, and identify how supernatural elements drive the plot of many of Shakespeare's plays.
These segments from the PBS series Shakespeare Uncovered focus in particular on the witches from Macbeth, the relationship between the spirit and human worlds in Elizabethan England and how it's reflected in Shakespeare's work, how Prospero uses magic in The Tempest, a discussion on the study and practice of magic in the 17th century, and much more. WATCH: http://to.pbs.org/1ws3XxP
The First Beat Making Lab
Get behind the beat and find out what happens at the Beat Making Lab! Take a look inside the origins of this PBS Digital series filmed at UNC Chapel Hill, where students learn to make techno, dance and rap music using technology as their instrument. Beat Making Lab
In this video, Associate Professor Mark Katz and Adjunct Professor Stephen Levitin (also known by his DJ handle, Apple Juice Kid) explore a new method of teaching music, targeting tech-savvy students without formal training in the arts and teaching the backbones of music production.
The popular Beat Making Lab not only exposes young minds to the creative process but to the entrepreneurial aspects of making beats as well. Watch as the instructors become as equally as inspired as the students! VIDEO: http://to.pbs.org/1q4wSpt
WFSU – A Special Kind of Magic
I have always been a PBS kid. I watched Barney and Zoom. I laughed till I cried watching the crazy chickens on Between the Lions, and the dueling knights in the Gawain's Word segment. I watched the Elmo's World portion of Sesame Street until I was in my early teens because I couldn't resist the adorable sweetness of Elmo, Mr. Noodle and Dorothy the Goldfish. Sesame Street even had me convinced that I wanted to live in a moss-covered cave with the snuffleupagus family. Most importantly, my childhood hero wasn't a sports star or a comic book superhero, it was Fred Rogers. I was enthralled with the gentleness and kindness of this amazing person on the screen, and as I grew too old to watch Mister Rogers' Neighborhood (and continued to watch anyway) I realized just how special Fred Rogers was. And, I realized that I wanted to be part of the public broadcasting family, and help create the magic that I felt during my childhood for future generations of children.
You can imagine how thrilled I was when in college I had the opportunity to work at WFSU in the Education and Outreach department, and be a connection between PBS and the local community. I have been here for two years now, planning family events and helping with educational programs, and I absolutely love my job. Who wouldn't enjoy a job where you occasionally get to transform into Daniel Tiger or Clifford?
But, there is a deeper reason why I love public broadcasting and why I am so dedicated to its mission. PBS (and NPR) exist to fill a need in communities across the United States—whether that need is literacy programming, or shows that help children make healthier choices. Time and time again I turn to PBS and NPR for information and entertainment. It makes me happy that there is still something so stellar and beautiful in our society…created through endless collaborations between people, and held to the highest standard of quality. Public broadcasting is everyone's opportunity to open their eyes to what is going on around them, and to connect to the rest of the world. Public broadcasting is media "for the people, by the people," and paid for by the people as well.
I see a need for children's language programming in the United States, and this is why I am leaving WFSU to pursue an MA in Psycholinguistics at the University of York. I will be studying how people learn a second language, in order to create the best possible programs to teach children. There are so many reasons why I think that we need these programs—for one, most American children are behind their peers in other parts of the world, who learn to speak at least two languages. But, I think most importantly, knowing another language makes one more open-minded and more accepting of different cultures. I hope that by teaching our children a second language, we might both guarantee our children's futures in an increasingly globalized job market, and ensure a more peaceful future for our world.
"The connections we make in the course of a life—maybe that's what heaven is."
– Fred Rogers
I can't imagine a world without PBS—I can't imagine my world without PBS. I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart to my WFSU family—to Tasha, Kim, Natalie, Ashley and Trisha (my amazing coworkers and truly intelligent, strong, creative, kind and wonderful people in every way), and to all the staff at WFSU who I have had the pleasure of working with and getting to know. I will miss all of you so much! And, a huge thank you to the teachers, parents, children, and other members of the community I have worked with during my time at WFSU—I so enjoyed watching you experience the magic of PBS!

The Design Process: From Idea to Solution
What does innovation look like, and how can one generate innovative ideas and strategies – right in the classroom? This collection, produced by NOVA Education, helps educators and learners explore the process by which innovators seek to make the world a better place through the invention of practical solutions to some of the world's most pressing problems.
The collection, called "The Design Process: From Idea to Solution," is made up of four videos, each with an accompanying lesson plan. Young learners can watch college students from around the country engage actively with the design thinking process, and then draw inspiration from them. Teachers can use the lesson plans to guide their students through the design process, helping students to develop unique, innovative ideas and strategies of their very own.
Nothing is more gratifying for students than to have an impact on their world and see their ideas in action! EXPLORE THE COLLECTION: http://to.pbs.org/1r7dzhs
Camping with Hundley
Curious George is an all-time classic! Watch this "Camping with Hundley" video featuring the beloved, inquisitive monkey with your young learners and help them explore the various tools available to help people complete work. The accompanying lesson plan will ultimately spark your class' thinking on future careers!
In the video, George needs to use his camping skills after a storm knocks out the electricity that powers the Doorman's van. He uses a mallet to build a shelter, a lighter to start a fire and sticks to cook hot dogs. After children explore what tools are, who uses them, and how the design of a tool matches its function, they play a game in which they match tools used by different professions. Children then imagine a job they'd like to do someday and a tool they might use.
Perhaps one day, one of your students will grow up to be a writer or illustrator and use the same tools that the creators of Curious George did! LAUNCH THE LESSON PLAN: http://to.pbs.org/1rsyxDg

Exploring Cuba's Thriving Coral Reefs
Even though at first appearance corals may look like plants or rocks, they are in fact animals, related to sea anemones and jellyfish. Coral reefs the world over are threatened by pollution, rising ocean temperatures and overfishing. In Cuba, however, reefs are flourishing.
Coral reefs are extremely sensitive to environmental changes and depend on clean, clear saltwater for survival. Pollution and agricultural runoff can have a huge impact on the health of a coral reef. In this sense, Cuba's Communist government may have inadvertently helped protect the Cuban reefs for many years by preventing the flow of fresh water to the sea, as well as limiting the availability and use of fertilizer and pesticides. However, as Cuba begins to open its doors to the rest of the world, increased commercialism and tourism is once again increasing levels of pollution, sedimentation and development in coastal areas, which creates a negative effect on the corals.
In this video from "Nature" follow along with your class as a marine biologist explores the variety of corals, fish and other wildlife in Cuba's tropical waters, and consider why Cuba's reefs are so healthy in comparison to those in the rest of the world. WATCH: http://to.pbs.org/1nDACNa
PBS LearningMedia's Past/Present
Now that summer is almost here, it's time to get gaming! The time: May 1906. The place: The mythical town of Eureka Falls. Reach into a piece of American history with PBS LearningMedia's Past/Present, an interactive desktop computer game and website designed to impart decision-making and critical thinking skills. Your students will impersonate one of two protagonists: Anna Caruso, a young Italian immigrant worker, or Walter Armbruster, the mill's young manager. Set against the backdrop of growing labor struggles in an economically harsh climate, Past/Present transports your students to a tense time where labor unrest is on the rise.
As they play, Anna or Walter will make choices that determine their next action. They'll be asked to accomplish a series of goals and objectives, solve mysteries and collect evidence to answer three big questions that will support pro and con views on key issues that can be discussed in the classroom post-game. At the game's conclusion, they commit themselves to a position on a volatile topic: for Anna, to strike or not? For Walter, to negotiate or not? Their choices result in an epilogue tailored to their experience. Students will actually look forward to playing this creative game and the accompanying teaching materials will make your life a whole lot easier too! (Grades: 5-10) http://ow.ly/xTOml
Shakespeare Uncovered
William Shakespeare may be the author best known for his use of soliloquy. The literary device, in which characters directly address the audience and share their innermost thoughts, appears in Hamlet, Macbeth, The Tragedy of Julius Caesar and many other Shakespearean plays. Though soliloquies are often considered dense, intimidating, old fashioned and confusing, they still are used as popular dramatic plot devices in books, movies and even television shows.
In this PBS LearningMedia series of videos from PBS' Shakespeare Uncovered, students explore the use of soliloquy as a device to reveal character and advance plot. They consider how using soliloquy perhaps more truthfully exposes character than other devices like dialogue. In addition, students focus particularly on Hamlet's famous "To be or not to be" speech and discuss how and why the topics are best explored through soliloquy. Get inspiration from the accompanying teacher tips to have students identify soliloquy in some of today's popular television shows such as "Modern Family" and "The Office." No better way to tie in the new with the old! (Grades: 8-12) Open the resource here: http://ow.ly/xAPLX

REDWOOD CITY, Calif. (AP) -- Lawsuits filed by survivors of the deadly San Bruno gas pipeline explosion likely won't go to trial.
Eight people were killed and 38 homes were destroyed in the September 2010 gas line blast in the San Francisco Bay suburb.
Attorneys involved in the suits against Pacific Gas & Electric said during a Monday hearing that it will take about 90 days to settle remaining claims filed by more than 320 residents.
About 120 other plaintiffs have settled.
The Santa Cruz Sentinel (http://bit.ly/10674Nm) says a San Mateo County judge's ruling in October is apparently motivating PG&E to settle.
The judge denied the utility's bid to bar jurors from weighing whether the utility should pay potentially millions of dollars in punitive damages to the victims.

Red Wing is a train station in Red Wing, Minnesota, United States, served by Amtrak's (the National Railroad Passenger Corporation) Empire Builder, which runs daily between Chicago, Illinois and Seattle, Washington or Portland, Oregon.[Note 1] (The next westbound stop is in Saint Paul, Minnesota[Note 2] and the next eastbound stop is in Winona, Minnesota.)
The station is located at 420 Levee Street[1] on the bank of the Mississippi River, south of the Levee Park and just across the river from the State of Wisconsin. (Although the river lies northwest of the station, the depot is located on the west bank of the Mississippi.) The station is easily accessible from Main Street, via Broad Street, and is within walking distance of the downtown area of Red Wing.[9] There is an enclosed waiting room (with restrooms) available daily from 8:00 am to 9:45 pm, with a caretaker opening and closing the depot. However, no other services are provided at the station (i.e., baggage, lounge, telephone, ticketing, etc.).[1] The tracks and platform of the station are owned by the Soo Line Railroad (a subsidiary of the Canadian Pacific Railway), while the depot building and parking lot are owned by the Red Wing Area Fund (also known as the Red Wing Property Conservation Fund).[2]
The depot was originally built by the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad (Miluakee Road). The depot building also houses the Red Wing Visitor and Convention Bureau as well as an arts gallery.[2][10][11]
A plaque on the building states, "The construction of this building began in 1904 following an agreement in which the city of Red Wing provided trackage concessions and the railroad agreed to construct this depot and donate money toward construction of Levee Park. This building was designed by the railroad company architect, J.M. Nettenstrom, in a style influenced by the neoclassical revival of the 1893 Chicago Columbian Exposition." The building a contributing property to the Red Wing Mall Historic District, which is on the National Register of Historic Places.

All Rise...
Judge Dawn Hunt isn't sure where the boys were in 1984, but she knew where He-Man was. Does that count?
The Charge
It seemed like a good idea. Take one of the seminal films of the 1960s, complete with a catchy title song, and remake it. Too bad it didn't really translate as well as it could have. One of the best elements of the original version was deliberately left out, namely the whole 'watch yourself or else this could happen to you' thing. The cautionary tale in 1960 became a trite shadow in 1984.
The Case
I confess, when this movie is on, I will stop and watch it. This was supposed to be a classic spring break road trip movie. And like all movies of the genre there's booze, boobs, and sex. There're also star-crossed (or at least cross-country) lovers who meet and share a mad passionate relationship over the course of the vacation.
But the key difference with Where the Boys Are '84 is it focuses on four women who are looking for fun and sun, as opposed to four guys. Thus there's less T&A than you'd usually get, or even want.
Our lovely group of co-eds is led by Jennie (Lisa Hartman Black, Knots Landing) who would rather stay and study over break until the promise of meeting her musical idol, a classical pianist, lures her into going. Once in Lauderdale she meets him, but also has caught the eye of the hitchhiker the girls picked up on the way to Florida. What's a girl to do?
Her roommate Carole (Lorna Luft, Grease 2) is anxious to get away from boyfriend Chip believing they've fallen into a rut. But she's forced to face her woes when he follows her. Meanwhile uppity Sandra (Wendy Schaal, American Dad!) promises to stay for the weekend before going on a separate vacation, but her plans are waylaid when she lands in jail and falls for the arresting officer. Rounding out the group is Laurie (Lynn-Holly Johnson, For Your Eyes Only) who also has definite plans for the break…find a Conan the Barbarian type of stud and engage in one wild night. She ends up finding the perfect guy but things take an unbelievable turn.
Within our buxom quartet of leading ladies you have one who's married to a country superstar, one who's the daughter of Judy frickin' Garland, one who works with Seth MacFarlane, and one who's a Bond girl; so Where the Boys Are '84 can't be all bad, right?
And it's not. The actresses all display a genuine chemistry with one another, although with no one else at times. They're simply a victim of the genre. There isn't a successful spring break road trip movie featuring female stars that I can think of. Honestly Where the Boys Are '84 is no worse than Crossroads and it's better than From Justin to Kelly.
If you're looking for a good spring break road trip movie look elsewhere. Chances are you're looking for raunchy bits and nudity and you'll find none of the first and barely any of the second. While it made back its budget and then some when it came out, it doesn't hold up over the long haul unless it's as a guilty pleasure.
This is not a crystal clear transfer and while the grain and uneven levels would normally give it a definitive '80s low budget film feel, in this case it's like watching a bootlegged VHS copy. The audio falls flat, too, but again I didn't expect perfection here and neither should you. The special features are a couple of interviews with stars Wendy Schaal and Russell Todd, plus a couple of trailers.
The Verdict
Guilty of being another example of a genre that hasn't worked yet.
Give us your feedback!
Did we give Where the Boys Are '84 a fair trial? yes / no
What's "fair"? Whether positive or negative, our reviews should be unbiased, informative, and critique the material on its own merits.

Overall photo quality from the Fujifilm FinePix Z33WP is mediocre. The biggest issue is that the pictures lack sharpness regardless of ISO. Noise is a problem across all sensitivities as well. Shots taken using settings up to ISO 400 are suitable for prints below 5x7 inches or Web use. I can't recommend this camera for low-light or action photography due to the poor high ISO results in addition to the shutter lag performance. Colors are passable from the Z33WP. In our lab tests, blues were off, but other colors were decent. In field tests, things looked fairly natural though somewhat washed out. Video quality is OK and good enough for Web use, if not much else.
The Fujifilm FinePix Z33WP is an inexpensive waterproof point-and-shoot ultracompact camera. And by inexpensive I mean that it's considerably less than other waterproof cameras. However, the pictures and performance aren't the greatest, so while the Z33WP on paper looks like a good deal for an everyday pocket camera, you're better using it as a secondary camera specifically for shooting in rain and snow, or at the beach and pool.

Datastore: "Unable to load data using the supplied configuration"
Hey, i tried to do the datastores tutorial provided on the mainpage but i get some error trying to use the .json database.
I have a tomcat server running on port 8080 and a databasefolder at /database/customers.json.
I have no problems accessing that file with a browser but extdesigner does not load the file. Any idea what it might be?
19 Jan 2011 2:50 AM #2
I have exactly the same issue.
From your documentation about data stores I wanted to try the example with the customers.json. I followed the instruction, placed the file on my ubuntu in a virtual box and specified the URL (basePath + url) and clicked "Load Data" which results in an error:
"Unable to load data using the supplied configuration.
Open in Browser: http://dev.local/customers.json"
The URL works fine in the browser and I can see the content of the json file.
What might be the problem?
Regards, Michael

Hi TimTim & Michael,
This error also occurs when the store is unable to decipher the data that's returned from the server. Is the "root" config of your JsonStore set to "customers"?
19 Jan 2011 5:59 AM #4
Hi Jarred
Yes, the root is set to customers.
In my case, when my JsonStore in ExtDesigner (running on my mac) should connect to http://dev.local/customers.json (which is on 192.168.56.10, a virtbox ubuntu running apache, and GET request with browser works from my mac), does the rule of xdomain references bite me? Or is it supposed to work that way from within ExtDesigner?
The code I have:
JsonStore Definition
CustomersStore = Ext.extend(Ext.data.JsonStore, { constructor: function(cfg) { cfg = cfg || {}; CustomersStore.superclass.constructor.call(this, Ext.apply({ storeId: 'CustomersStore', root: 'customers', idProperty: 'name', url: 'customers.json', autoLoad: true, fields: [ { name: 'name' }, { name: 'age', type: 'int' }, { name: 'zipcode', mapping: 'zip' } ] }, cfg)); } }); new CustomersStore();
customers.json Content:
{ customers: [ {name: "Bradley Banks", age: 36, zip: "10573"}, {name: "Sarah Carlson", age: 59, zip: "48075"}, {name: "Annmarie Wright", age: 53, zip: "48226"} ] }
Unable to load data using the supplied configuration.
Open in Browser: http://dev.local/customers.json
I'm already thinking about setting up the local apache of my mac as a reverse proxy to dev.local so that ExtDesigner can connect to localhost...

Thanks for the fast reply. Let me try to replicate your issue as your configuration and everything look fine to me.
In my case, when my JsonStore in ExtDesigner (running on my mac) should connect to http://dev.local/customers.json (which is on 192.168.56.10, a virtbox ubuntu running apache, and GET request with browser works from my mac), does the rule of xdomain references bite me? Or is it supposed to work that way from within ExtDesigner?

Now, beeing at home, things are clearer (and working .
I removed all of Ext Designer (/Application/ExtDesigner.app, ~/Library/Application Support/Ext JS, Inc., ~/.config/Ext JS, Inc., ~/Library/Preferences/..?) and reinstalled the app again. Startet up, registered and gave it another try with the jsonStore... and it worked!
What was the difference? Proxy!
At work, I had to set the proxy to be able to register the software. Afterwards unsetting the proxy was not possible through the app and removing ~/Library/Application Support/Ext JS, Inc (and backing up the license file and reputting it upon restart) didn't help either.
After the fresh reinstall at home, setting up the proxy was not needed anymore, registered the software and now it works!
Don't know why, but the issue is related to the proxy settings.
Does this help you in anyway to locate the issue?
Tomorrow at work I'll see if it still works, but it should, as long as I'm only connecting to stuff reachable without having to use the proxy (i.e. http://dev.local).

The Primary Science Plant & Grow Set comes with 12 kid-friendly planting tools and 10 activity cards to build children's understanding of how plants grow. The activities are to be completed with the help of a parent or guardian. The tools include a watering can, an observation jar with solid lid and vented lid, a rooting tray, three pots, three plant markers, and a trowel. Parents introduce the set to children by showing and naming each tool, then demonstrating how each piece can be used. Kids can take time to explore the components on their own before engaging in the activities. Through the activities, kids can grow grass, make a terrarium, turn a carrot blue, and more. Additional supplies are needed for each activity, and they are listed on the activity card.
This is a hands-on science kit designed to make science fun and engaging for preschoolers. Kids will like that, with the help of mom and dad, they can conduct experiments and grow their own plants. However, some of the activities take a few days or even weeks to see results. This set is designed so that you can simultaneously do several activities for more timely results and less waiting for kids eager to see nature in action.
The Plant & Grow Set is for ages 3 and up.
Learning Resources reminds parents and children that plants make many, many seeds, and not all are expected to germinate. If your activity is not successful, try again. All scientists need to experience trial and error to learn what causes success and failure. Sometimes, it's just nature.
Additional Primary Science sets include Color Mixing Lenses and Test Tubes & Dropper. Each set is sold separately.

MONTELIMAR, France -- Floyd Landis is willing to gamble that
his best days at the Tour de France are ahead of him.
The American gave up the race's overall lead Saturday, deciding
to save his energy for next week's vital stages before the Tour
reaches its finish in Paris next Sunday.
Spain's Oscar Pereiro, of Illes Balears, claimed the jersey by
finishing 29 minutes and 57 seconds ahead of Landis and the main
pack of riders in Saturday's 13th stage. Jens Voigt of Germany won
the stage, finishing in the same time as Pereiro.
"I don't think we need to keep the jersey every single day, and
I'm happy to see Pereiro get the jersey," said Landis, who was a
teammate of Pereiro's on Phonak. "He's an ex-teammate of mine, and
he looked happy."
Landis slipped to second overall, 1:29 behind the Spaniard.
Pereiro understood the logic of his former teammate's strategy.
"I don't consider it a gift, but for them it's an advantage now
to see someone else have to work to control the race," Pereiro
For years, the strategy of many Tour favorites has been to allow
other riders to temporarily take the jersey, then recapture it in
the time trials and grueling mountain stages of the last week. The
tactic lessens the pressure on teams to protect their leader and
ride hard at the front. It was often a rule of thumb for Lance
Armstrong en route to his record seven Tour victories.
Landis' somewhat risky calculation is that Pereiro, who
struggled in the Pyrenees this week, won't fare well in three
tougher Alpine stages in the final week and the penultimate stage
time trial.
Landis said that letting Pereiro take the yellow jersey amounted
to "a gamble" -- but he wanted to let his squad concentrate on
supporting him in the Alps starting Tuesday, after a rest day
"To me, it's better to save our team," said the Pennsylvania
native, who has repeatedly said his only goal is to wear the yellow
jersey at the finish of the three-week race on the Champs-Elysees.
Voigt, riding for Team CSC, won the hot and dry stage from
Beziers to Montelimar after he and Pereiro were among a group of
five riders who broke away early from the main pack.
The huge gap of nearly 30 minutes between the two leaders and
most riders wasn't far from the record 35:54 differential between a
breakaway group and the pack in a 2001 Tour stage. At 143 miles,
Saturday's stage was the Tour's longest this year, and the main
pack seemed content to let the breakaway riders go.
Other potential contenders are also are biding their time.
Australia's Cadel Evans, of Davitamon-Lotto, said Saturday he was
"happy with where I am" -- 2:46 back in fifth place.
Just a day earlier, Landis let another rider get away. Discovery
Channel's Yaroslav Popovych cut his deficit to Landis by more than
half in winning Friday's stage. He is now 11th, 5:44 behind
Pereiro, adding the Ukrainian to the list of rivals that Landis
will need to watch in the Alps.
Pereiro is no lightweight: He finished 10th in both of his two
previous Tour appearances in 2004 and 2005.
He only lost 1:40 to Landis in the first long time trial at the
end of the first week. And he can climb: Pereiro's other Tour stage
win came last year in a punishing ride in the Alps.
But Landis and his race manager believe they know what they're
doing. Pereiro lost more than 26 minutes to Landis in the harder of
two stages in the Pyrenees this week.
They also say they know Pereiro's abilities well. He was on
Phonak for four years before joining Illes Balears earlier this
Pereiro, who surprised himself by taking the lead, said he
believes Landis can take back the yellow shirt whenever he wants.
"I have to be realistic," he admitted.
But he also said he's bounced back from his disappointments in
the Pyrenees.
"I feel that I'm in good condition. I've recuperated well,"
the 29-year-old said.
Pereiro had little preparation to be the leader. Illes Balears
had planned to ride in support of team star Alejandro Valverde. But
he broke his collarbone in a crash in the opening week.
Pereiro taking the lead was the latest twist in a Tour that has
been weird since the beginning.
Jan Ullrich, the 1997 Tour winner, and last year's runner-up
Ivan Basso were among nine riders sent home on the eve of the July
1 start because they were implicated in a doping probe.
And without Armstrong exerting his control, the race has lacked
a clear leader, creating an exciting new sense of opportunity for
riders who long rode in his shadow.
Pereiro is the seventh rider to take the yellow jersey this
year. Only in 1958 and 1987 have more cyclists worn it: eight.
"The Tour is pretty exciting," Voigt said, "the yellow jersey
changes every day."

To promote early detection of lung cancer, the Lung Cancer/Thoracic Oncology Program at Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey collaborates with Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital and University Radiology / Department of Radiology at Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School to provide a lung cancer screening program for those at high risk for developing the disease due primarily to past or current smoking habits and/or a history of chronic lung disease.
If you are a smoker or former smoker over 50 years old with 30 or more "pack years" (number of packs of cigarettes smoked per day multiplied by the number of years smoked), you should talk to your doctor about getting a Computerized Tomography (CT) screening for lung cancer.
The lung cancer screening includes a low-dose CT scan of the chest, which uses a combination of x-ray techniques and computer technology to provide highly detailed images of internal structures. The CT scanner uses an x-ray source similar to that used to obtain ordinary chest x-rays, however, the x-ray beam is so tightly focused that portions of the body outside of the scanned region get relatively little x-ray exposure. The Program is designated as an American College of Radiology Lung Cancer Screening Center.
The cost of the screening is covered by Medicare and may also be covered by other medical insurance companies.
The CT scanner takes multiple pictures through the selected area of the body. Depending on the part of the body scanned, between 20 and 1,000 separate images will be generated. Most studies are completed within about 5 to 10 minutes. The information is processed by a computer and then made available to the radiologist for review.
Members of the Lung Cancer/Thoracic Oncology Program participated in the National Lung Screening Trial (NLST), which showed that screening for lung cancer was more effective with a CT scan of the chest rather than with a chest x-ray. Radiologists of the Thoracic Oncology Program were participants in this nationwide study and are available to read a patient's low-dose screening chest CT if completed at one of the program's radiology offices. The results are then sent to the patient and the referring physician.
For more information about lung cancer screenings or to schedule an appointment please call 732-235-5947.

Based on the price of the lamp, I did not have high expectations but needed a small lamp. I was surprised when the lamp arrived. The shade is very well made and makes a nice addition to the area needing the lighting. Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase.
Beautiful, bought two. Would recommend.
Love these lamps!!! They were the perfect addition to my bedroom.
Looks great and is exactly as described.
Beautiful lamp. Just as pictured. Packed extremely well and arrived in perfect condition right on time. This was the third lamp I ordered all in the same day. I am a new overstock customer and I have to say that they exceeded my expectations.
When I first read the reviews for this product, someone had said the lamp didn't have real glass. This couldn't be further from the truth!! I saw this same lamp in Macy's Dept. store for almost 4 times as much! Everyone who comes over says they are going to kidnap my lamp to take home, it is just that elegant. I had made a silk flower arrangement with the same colors in them and together they are absolutely stunning. Get this lamp, enjoy and cherish it as I do, you will not be disappointed!!
I purchased this as a present for my daughter. She loves it! She says it has a pretty glow at night.
This lamp is in my entry way. It stays on all day and all night and the shade is bright enough yet emits a nice glow so at night it lights up the entryway without looking like we have a bright light on all night long. We enjoy it very much and the colors are great.
I love my little table lamp it is perfect for my bedroom.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? very nice
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. good
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? excellent
I enjoy tiffany style lamps but they can be expensive. I bought a pair for the bedroom. I enjoy them. They are on the smaller size but the measurement is there. Be aware if you use this for reading it is not exceptionally bright if you follow the manufacturer directions for the wattage recommended for the lamp. It is very pretty with the light shining through it.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Good
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Goood
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Accurate
The red centers of the flowers show up a little better in person. The base also fortunately appears darker. The colors are kind of mottled and appear a little darker. It is a pretty lamp even when off and I've received several compliments on it.
I love this lamp....it is just what I wanted. I felt the description was accurate and the reviews were helpful. I wanted a bedside lamp , so it is enough light for my bedtime reading, though it isn't a true reading lamp . I am very pleased with this purchase and will use Overstock again.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? colors were true to picture
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. I was pleased with the sturdiness of the metal and glass.
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? accurate
Excellent lamp - beautiful glass. One must remember this is an accent piece and NOT something like a reading lamp. Well worth the price.
I just received this lamp and as usual, it exceeded my expectations. I have purchased 3 tiffany lamps from Overstock and I am ALWAYS pleased. Make sure you always check the measurements before purchasing because some lamps are larger than others.
Loved the lamp so much I bought a second one. I have them on our bedroom night stands and I couldn't be happier. The colors are beautiful, they arrived quickly - I just wish I had ordered them sooner. I've been looking for the right lamps and these were it.
I love the fast shipping and how well the packaging provided extra protection for this collectible. I would recommend this for a gift!
This is a beautiful mid-size lamp. I gave it to my niece for Christmas and she loved it. Service was great. Shipping was fantastic.
What a beautiful lamp bought it as a Xmas present for a special friend. Can hardly wait until he opens it. The construction of the lamp is excellent. This lamp would stand out where ever it is put. I have been purchasing from overstock for several years and have always been extremely satisfied. Thank you for your excellence in customer service and quality products.
I purchased this lamp for a friends wedding. It was their favorite present.....they couldn't say enough about it. I agree, as I have bought quite a few lamps from O, this one was unique and showy. I think I might buy myself one, I liked it so much!
I bought this as a gift for my mother and she absolutely loves it. It looks just like the picture, so if you think it's pretty here, you will definitely like it. My mom likes that the shape of the shade keeps it from taking up too much space, yet still has a lot of the beautiful stained glass to light up. Once she set it up in her living room & lit it up, it was difficult for us to keep our eyes off of it. It's a beautiful lamp at a really great price.

The truth about a lie: How can you tell?
Published: Monday, February 7, 2011 at 8:58 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, February 7, 2011 at 8:58 a.m.
Lying is a learned part of human behavior, experts say.
Verbal signs of lying include use of the following:
— The liar uses qualifiers or modifiers such as not necessarily, but, however, ordinarily, almost, most of the time, generally, essentially, basically, sometimes, usually, hardly ever, possibly, actually, rarely, specifically, some.
— Liars tend to use expanded contractions such as: did not, could not, would not.
— Denials. The liar emphasizes the truthfulness of his answers.
— Liars might have errors in speech including changes of thought in mid-sentence, grammatical errors including tense, person and pronoun, and Freudian slips.
— He might use pause fillers such as: "uh," "er," "um" and "ah."
— Stuttering - the liar becomes tongue-tied, slurs his speech, stammers and stutters.
— Throat clearing: Liars will clear their throat and make other sounds such as a moaning, groaning or grunting.
— Avoidance of pointing: The liar tends to avoid pointing or raising a single finger to illustrate a point.
Nonverbal signs of lying include:
— Less finger pointing
— Lean or postural shift
— Lip licking, lip tightening
— Drinking and swallowing more frequently
— Smiling more frequently, insincere smiles and laughing inappropriately.
— Fewer hand gestures.
— Someone lying will show increased touching of the face, ears or hair.
— Lying usually leads to more audible or visible sighs or deep breaths.
— Head and shoulder shrugs. The liar will flip the hands over in an open fashion and shrug the shoulders as if uncertain.
— Handling objects. The dishonest person will be more preoccupied with eyeglasses, pen or papers.
— Averting gaze.
— A deceptive person blinks less often.
— A liar will fold or cross his arms across the chest.
— Hiding thumbs or closing hands and interlocking fingers.
— Touching, scratching or rubbing the nose is a sign of nasal engorgement due to lying.
Source: "How to Tell if Your Teenager is Lying" by Alan R. Hirsch.
And it's pervasive.
We all lie - to avoid trouble, to make us feel better and to influence how we look to others, says Jim Wick, a psychologist with Sanford Behavioral Health.
But "if you are honest with yourself," he says, "you can't go too far wrong."
Some lies, though, can have far-reaching effects. "It destroys your credibility and trust with other people and affects your relationship with others," Wick says.
Men and women lie about equally, but the biggest liars in our society are teenagers, says Alan Hirsch, a neurologist, psychiatrist and director of the Smell and Taste Research and Treatment Foundation in Chicago.
Teens may feel invincible and think they aren't subject to society's rules. And they are challenged frequently.
Whether it's your teenager, your spouse, your boss or your friend, you can use the same techniques to discover the truth. "If you can detect lies, you can also tell when people tell the truth," says Mark Bouton, an author and retired FBI agent.
However, there's a snag - most people are inept at detecting a lie. The average person can pick up a lie only 44 percent of the time, Bouton says.
"That's like flipping a coin."
So how can a person tell if someone is lying? Recognize that people have a psychological response to the stress of lying.
"By reading facial expressions, body language and vocal indicators, as well as paying attention to the logic of the comments made," you may be able to tell if someone is lying, Bouton says.
Watching a person's reaction can be telling. People exhibit micro-expressions in response to a question. A micro-expression is the first look that flashes over a person's face as he or she is trying to conceal an emotion.
That initial look is only 1/25th of a second long, Bouton says. "The blink of an eye is a 10th of a second, so the micro-expression is easy to miss," he says.
But that first fleeting expression is the real one and can be revealing.
Also, people who are lying tend to get a dry mouth and will swallow often or lick their lips.
If the person is restricting movement, compressing his lips or has a noticeably negative reaction to the question, your radar should be on, according to psychologytoday.com.
"When you lie, you feel guilty and react with a sympathetic nerve response, which increases your pulse and elevates your blood pressure. Those reactions affect the tissues in the nose. The vessels become swollen, causing your nose to itch. That's why you tend to scratch your nose when you lie," he says.
Next, listen carefully to the answers to your questions. Liars tend to use language fillers such as "um" and "er," Bouton says. Or they might repeat a question to buy time or slur their speech and make grammatical errors.
Did the person answer with conviction and in a steady voice? Or was their demeanor meek and their voice higher-pitched and lacking emphasis?
Listen to the words they choose. If the person says "honestly" or "frankly," he's probably not telling the truth.
A person's posture can be another signal to lying. Take note of how the person is sitting. "When you tell the truth, you lean back. When you lie, you lean forward," Hirsch says.
When a person is lying, she may lay her fingers alongside or across her mouth while speaking in a classic reaction to "speak no evil."
Shrugging the shoulders also can have a deeper meaning. If, under questioning, a person shrugs both shoulders slowly, they're likely being honest, Bouton says. But if they do it quickly or with just one shoulder, they're probably lying.
Finally, after the questioning, wait. Give the person time to tell the truth through their behavior. Employ the pregnant pause and watch. A guilty person probably will exhale in a heavy or prolonged puff, wriggle in the chair and self-soothe.

If America Defaults, David Brooks Blames the Republicans
Brooks can't stand to watch the GOP these days.
New York Times columnist David Brooks, a moderate Republican who has watched his breed gradually die off over the past few years, uses his latest column to decry the GOP's antitax fanaticism, which has brought the debt-reduction negotiations to a standstill as the deadline to raise the debt ceiling approaches closer and closer.
If the Republican Party were a normal party, it would take advantage of this amazing moment. It is being offered the deal of the century: trillions of dollars in spending cuts in exchange for a few hundred million dollars of revenue increases.
A normal Republican Party would seize the opportunity to put a long-term limit on the growth of government. It would seize the opportunity to put the country on a sound fiscal footing. It would seize the opportunity to do these things without putting any real crimp in economic growth.
To Brooks's dismay, however, the GOP has been "infected by a faction" which does "not accept the logic of compromise," which does "not accept the legitimacy of scholars and intellectual authorities," and which has "no sense of moral decency." If the debt ceiling isn't raised and the federal government defaults, Brooks writes, it'll be the GOP's fault.
This isn't the first time that Brooks has criticized Republican obstinacy.
That was in December. Clearly, the GOP isn't listening. Why would they? They always get their way. Besides, Brooks is an intellectual.

Kathrynne Holden, MS, RD P t ; < P&g>
Well, let's start with what an RD isn't ---
An RD IS NOT----the diet police ("What's that cheeseburger doing in your hand?!")
--the food gestapo ("Eat this carrot, you will love it!")
--a nutrition Nazi ("Ten Foods You Should NEVER eat")
--your mother ("Eat your crusts, it'll make your hair curly!")
An RD is a Registered Dietitian -- a nutrition expert !!
An RD:
- has successfully completed a dietetics internship, and
- has a Bachelor of Science or Master of Science degree in human nutrition or dietetics, and
- has passed a registration examination by the American Dietetic Association.
You may hear of people who call themselves "dietitians" or "nutritionists." They DO NOT have the qualifications of a registered dietitian. A registered dietitian is a qualified nutritionist, but a nutritionist is NOT a qualified dietitian !
An RD can clear up confusion about diet and nutrition. An RD can help you plan a personal eating style for:-- Sports competition -- Food allergies -- Heart disease -- High blood pressure -- High cholesterol -- Ulcers -- Esophageal reflux -- Cancer prevention -- Weight control .......and many other conditions
Some RDs are vegetarians. Some specialize in sports nutrition, or work with women and children. Some RDs work in hospitals, others in food service or public health. My own interest lies in diet for people with Parkinsonĺs disease.
For help finding an RD in your area, call the American Dietetic Association, 1-800-366-1655. They can help you locate an RD who specializes in your particular needs.
"There is no love sincerer than the love of food." -- George Bernard Shaw.
