The Case of the Vanishing Berries
By AMANDA HESSER
Published: November 22, 2000
LAST summer there was such an abundance of cranberries that the federal government announced that it was forcing growers to cut production of their crops by 15 percent.
Now, in Thanksgiving week, fresh cranberries in markets around the city are selling for the same price as last year.
Shouldn't they be practically giving them away? What happened to that surplus?
It turns out that cranberries are a peculiar little commodity that isn't governed by the usual laws of supply and demand. That's partly because, for a brief period every year, people are willing to pay whatever price is stamped on the bag. Whether it's $1 or $2 doesn't matter -- Thanksgiving isn't Thanksgiving without fresh cranberry sauce. And it's partly because the industry is dominated by a giant growers' cooperative -- Ocean Spray. Once it sets its price, others fall in line.
A few years ago, no one would have predicted a surplus. The cranberry business was clipping along. Cranberry juice and juice blends were selling strong, prices were soaring and the market seemed to have no bounds. To cranberry growers, the future was clear: to make more money, grow more fruit. Naturally, they expanded, buying up more land and planting more bogs.
''It started, say, five years ago,'' said Dr. Marvin Pritts, a professor at Cornell University who specializes in berry crops, ''when a lot of information about the health benefits of cranberries came out. It helps prevent bladder infection, it has a lot of vitamin C and it also has antioxidants.''
Demand for cranberry products went up and so did the prices. ''In fact,'' Dr. Pritts added, ''the prices for berries for juice were about the same as those that were sold fresh.''
Consumption of cranberry products remains high. The problem is simply that production is now higher. With so many more acres producing and so many more berries to sell, prices began falling. Five years ago, said Dave McCarthy, a cranberry grower in Yarmouth, Mass., growers could sell fresh cranberries for $1 a pound. This year, he said, growers are expecting just 50 to 55 cents a pound.
For growers whose cranberries are sold to be processed into juices and sauces, the situation is even worse. According to the National Agricultural Statistics Service, a branch of the United States Department of Agriculture, in 1999 growers sold their cranberries, both water- and dry-picked, for 17 cents a pound (in 1997, they got 64 cents). Most of the berries are processed. Growers are getting 15 cents to 20 cents a pound less than it costs them to produce, said Hal Brown, who runs www.cranberrystressline .com.
Consumers, of course, are in the dark about all those downs and ups. In supermarkets, the price of a 12-ounce bag of fresh cranberries has hovered around $2 for a decade, Dr. Pritts said, no matter what growers get paid.
There are two layers between the grower who harvests the berries and the cook who buys them: the handlers, who wash, pack and ship the berries, and the supermarkets that sell them.
''Traditionally and historically,'' said John Decas, the owner of the Decas Cranberry Sales in Wareham, Mass., ''Ocean Spray sets the price'' that supermarkets pay. Ocean Spray, based in Lakeville, Mass., is the largest handler, with about 66 percent of production.
Independent handlers like Decas then sell to supermarkets at prices a little above or below Ocean Spray.
Each year, in late September and early October, Ocean Spray sets a price per case of 24 12-ounce bags. This year, said Christopher Phillips, the spokesman for Ocean Spray, that price was $18, or 75 cents a bag. After that, he said, two price increases were planned, one just before Thanksgiving, to $22 a case, and one right after, to $24. The cooperative has since decided against the second increase. ''The supply drives it,'' Mr. Phillips said. ''In other words, we have so much to sell that it doesn't make sense to do that increase, so it's going to stay at $22.''
''Cranberries should not be selling for $1.99,'' said a handler, who asked to remain anonymous to avoid alienating his supermarket clients, ''and anyone who is selling them for that is taking advantage of the consumer and the farmer.''
Typically, supermarkets mark up produce about 40 percent above wholesale. Gino Roselli, a manager at Grace's Marketplace on the Upper East Side, said it is charging the same price as last year, $1.98 for a 12-ounce bag. Fairway has decreased its price to $1.50 from $1.69 (last year the berries were Ocean Spray's, this year, they are from Canada).
Cranberries harvested dry, for the fresh market, were exempt from the reduction ordered by the Agriculture Department in July. (Berries harvested by flooding bogs can be sold only for juice and sauces and other processed products.)
The Cranberry Marketing Committee, which is a branch of the Agriculture Department, recommended the harvest cutback to the department to keep prices from plummeting, said David N. Farrimond, its director.
Even so, dry-harvested cranberries are expected to be 8 to 10 percent of the total cranberry harvest, up from an average of 4 to 6 percent, he said. That means there are more fresh cranberries to sell, and ostensibly, all the more reason that prices at the consumer level should be lower this year.
Many growers chose to produce fresh cranberries because, though it is more labor intensive, it is more profitable.
Trae Cyrus, the purchasing director for Gourmet Garage markets in Manhattan, said prices are not decreasing by any great amount because of Ocean Spray.
''They are probably one of the least flexible shippers in the produce industry,'' Mr. Cyrus said.
He added that the price set by Ocean Spray was a little less than last year's, but Gourmet Garage is selling them for the same price, $1.99 for a 12-ounce bag.

The original hole-in-the-wall location of the long-lived Atlanta deli boasts Broadway handbills and a bustling lunchtime business, although seating is limited. Traditional bialys and multiple bagel varieties are fresh and fragrant, but the biggest draw are the sandwiches, particularly the chewy, meaty, torpedo-shaped po'boys that require two hands to eat and may be Atlanta's finest item served on two slices of bread.

Rolla's Chantae McMillan is right on track in her attempt to make the United States Olympic Team after the first day of competition in the heptathlon at the U.S. Olympic Track and Field Trials.
After Friday's four events of the seven-event heptathlon McMillan stood in third place in the standings, with the final three events slated for Saturday.
To qualify for the U.S. Olympic Team in the heptathlon competitors must finish in the top three and are subject to achieving the Olympic "A" qualifying standard of 6,150 points.
And so far, McMillan is on pace to reach both of those standards.
She sits in third place after the first day of competition behind Hyleas Fountain, of the Nike Track Club, and Sharon Day, of the Asics Track Club.
Fountain leads the way with 3,948 points followed by Day with 3,797 and McMillan 3,762. Just 26 points behind McMillan in fourth place is Barbara Nwaba of the University of California-Santa Barbara, with 3,736 points.
There are a total of 20 competitors in the heptathlon at the U.S. Olympic Trials.
Highlighting McMillan's Friday were personal-bests (PR) in three events, including a first-place finish in the shot put.
She opened action by finishing in fourth place in the 100-meter hurdles with a PR time of :13.36. She won Heat 2 of the 100-meter hurdles.
Following that McMillan, a multi-time All-America at the University of Nebraska who has graduated from that school and is currently running unattached, tied for ninth place in the high jump with a leap of 5-7 3/4.
In her third event McMillan won the shot put by nearly four and a half feet. On her first attempt McMillan got off the winning shot put of 49-3 1/2, which was another PR. Bettie Wade, of the Nike Track Club, finished a distant second in the event at 44-8 1/4.
Friday's heptathlon action ended with the 200-meter dash, in which McMillan finished eighth overall with a PR of :24.32. She won Heat 1 and was sitting in fourth place after three heats. However, there were four runners in Heat 4 who bettered her time, knocking her down to eighth place in the event.
"She's had a fantastic first day," said Rolla High School track head coach Don Knapp, who coached McMillan in high school and is in Eugene, Ore. watching her attempt to make the Olympic Team. "She's set PRs in three of four events. Her running is vastly improved and her shot put was her best in a competition."
On Saturday (June 30) McMillan ends competition with three events – the long jump, the javelin and the 800-meter run. The javelin, along with the shot put, has been her best events in her last few competitions. She was a long jump specialist coming out of high school, winning two state titles in the event for Rolla High. However, a knee injury last year has forced McMillan to switch her take-off leg and the past several weeks she has been working on the change.
Page 2 of 2 - McMillan's Olympic qualification figures to come down to the final event, the 800-meter run, which is one of the events she has struggled with the most in past years.
"She has three events left and two of them are among her best," Knapp said. "She's a strong long jumper and an exceptional javelin thrower.
"The way she's been running I think she is going to PR in the 800 – and maybe that's what it will take.
"She's right on pace (to qualify)."

Is Kongregate not working for some reason? Cause this is what I see…
I've had that before
just a refresh is good.. the formatting from the website didn't load.. lol
Nope, didn't work…
EDIT: Oh okay there it goes, had to delete history cause I use firefox :P thanks!
Had that before with Opera. You have to delete the cache, not history.
You don't have to delete the cache.
This problem often occurs when the *.css file is not loaded properly. :O
Got that couple times. When I pressed link there was then Kongregate logo and there was reading we have problems with server.
This problem often occurs when the *.css file is not loaded properly. :O
And you delete the cache with the bad stylesheet… ;)
Well, in that situation either an include isn't loading properly, or the stylesheet isn't. Either way, a refresh and cache-clear should fix it.
If you really want to know which, you want to look at the source code. If it's normal, then it's a .css issue, if some of the HTML is actually missing then it's PHP-related.
Yea that happens to me sometimes. Its freaky
never happened to me ,lol

His most famous victory occurred in 1954, when he led UConn to a one-point victory over Holy Cross, ending the Crusaders' 47-game home-winning streak. He left Storrs with a 286-112 career record. 1|18 AP Corny Thompson During Thompson's first three years with UConn, the program experienced unprecedented success: three consecutive 20-win seasons. He also helped the Huskies adjust to the Big East, which was founded during Thompson's sophomore season. Thompson's 1,810 career points rank fifth in school history. 2|18 AP Jim Calhoun In 1986, UConn hired Northeastern coach Jim Calhoun, who has led the Huskies to three national championships (1999, 2004) and four Final Fours. He is one of eight coaches with 800 career wins. But the 2005 Basketball Hall of Fame inductee sat out the first three games of the 2011-12 season because of recruiting violations by the program. 3|18 Getty Images Tate George In one of the most famous shots in school history, Tate George coverts a jumper with one second left to beat Clemson in the Sweet 16. The shot gave UConn a 71-70 victory, moving it to the Elite Eight for the first time since 1964. 4|18 Mitchell Layton/Getty Images Donyell Marshall The first All-America in school history, Donyell Marshall helped Calhoun continue to push the program forward. He averaged 18.1 points per game in his three years and led the Huskies to the first of three straight Big East titles. The 1994 squad also reached the Sweet 16. 5|18 AP Ray Allen Before he became the NBA's all-time three-point shooting king, Ray Allen honed his stroke in Storrs. A two-time All-America, Allen averaged 19 points per game and led the Huskies to the 1995 Elite Eight. He also made a school-record 44.8 percent of his three-point attempts. 6|18 Rich Lipski/The Washington Post/Getty Images Jim Calhoun and Bobby Knight Calhoun currently ranks sixth all time among men's Division I coaches with 873 career coaching victories while Bobby Knight is second with 902. 7|18 Ezra Shaw/Getty Images Khalid El- Amin During the best three-year span in UConn history, Khalid El-Amin was at the helm. The clutch point guard scored the final four points in the 1999 championship game against Duke, giving UConn a 77-74 victory and its first national championship. He was All-Big East as a junior and spent a year in the NBA before heading overseas to continue his professional career. 8|18 Manny Millan/Sports Illustrated Richard Hamilton and Khalid El-Amin Richard Hamilton and Khalid El-Amin pose after leading the Huskies to their first national championship. 9|18 Manny Millan/SI Caron Butler Caron Butler played two season for UConn. As a sophomore, he averaged 20 points and eight rebounds per game and led the Huskies to both regular season and tournament Big East titles. 10|18 Manny Millan/SI Ben Gordon Ben Gordon was one of the most dynamic scorers in school history, averaging nearly 17 points per game in his career. He scored 36 in the regional finals to push UConn to the Final Four, where he added 20 more in the Huskies' 82-73 victory over Georgia Tech in the championship game. In the 2004 NBA draft, Gordon went third to the Chicago Bulls. 11|18 Ezra Shaw/Getty Images Caron Butler and Jim Calhoun Big East Tournament MVP Caron Butler with Jim Calhoun after the Huskies won the tournament. 12|18 Jeffery A. Salter/SI Emeka Okafor During his three years at UConn, Emeka Okafor was one of the top defensive players in the nation. He also won All-America honors, the Final Four's Most Outstanding Player award and a national championship. Okafor, the NCAA Defensive Player of the Year during his junior season, blocked a school-record 4.3 shots per game in his UConn career. 13|18 AP Hilton Armstrong and Ben Gordon Hilton Armstrong (left) and Ben Gordon celebrate with the trophy and newspaper headline after the Huskies won the national championship with an 82-73 win over Georgia Tech. 14|18 Greg Nelson/SI Rudy Gay Rudy Gay burst onto the scene in 2004-05, winning Big East Freshman of the year (with Jeff Green) and earning an invitation to play for the USA's Men's Under-21 World Championship Team. In his sophomore year, Gay was a finalist for Naismith College Player of the Year. He was selected eighth overall in the 2006 draft by Memphis. 15|18 AP Tony Hanson Tony Hanson was the New England Player of the Year in 1977. He led the Huskies to a Sweet 16 appearance in 1976 and closed out his UConn career by averaging a double-double (26 points, 10.6 rebounds per game) as a senior. In this photo, Hanson is honored by UConn Director of Athletics Jeff Hathaway. 16|18 Robert Beck/SI Hasheem Thabeet and Maya Moore Hasheem Thabeet, a 7-foot-3-inch native of Tanzania, brought shot-blocking abilities to the UConn frontline. His 4.2 blocks per game are a hair behind Okafor's numbers for the best in school history, and he earned the 2009 NCAA Defensive Player of the Year award. In his junior season, Thabeet also led the Huskies to the Big East championship and the Final Four. 17|18 Damian Strohmeyer/SI Kemba Walker Kemba Walker's solid college career ventured into the spectacular in his junior season, and he earned All-America honors. Behind Walker, the Huskies won five games in five days to take the Big East tournament title and fought their way to the Final Four. The point guard has played his best when the Huskies needed it most, including a game-winner against No. 1 seed Pittsburgh in the Big East tournament. 18|18 Next up College Football Nearly a year after USC officials futilely attempted to hire Knute Rockne (left) away from Notre Dame, the series begins with a nail-biter in L.A.

Guide By: VinasErgoth, Heraldofkaos, Creech
There are 18 achievements with a total of 300 points.
Show / Hide Guide Road Map
Step 1:
The Kaiser's Battle
The achievements are few and easily obtainable. You can unlock all 3 within 1 playthrough, but considering the short length of the DLC, it is recommended to go back through for the collectibles achievement, so you can concentrate on that without compromising your defenses.
Step 1 - Campaign
Overall, Toy Soldiers is a simple 200, with one or two time consuming achievements. Definately one for fans and newcomers to the genre.
[We would like to thank VinasErgothfor this Roadmap]
[We would like to thank Scotty for the DLC additions]
|Jumped the Bags
|Complete level 1
After completing the tutorial, you will be thrust into the first level. There's nothing special about this achievement, just complete the level.
|Old Contemptible
|Defeat Tsar Tank
During level 3 (Nonne Bosschen Wood) you will come across the Tsar Tank near the end of the level. Have as many Howitzer guns shoot at it. It should go down before it reaches your toy box. The Tsar Tank will occasionally drop off a group of infantry.
|Flying Pig
|Defeat Zeppelin
During level 6 (Fort Douaumont) the Zeppelin will show up toward the later part of the level. Have a Pom-Pom tower on the north side of your base, preferably upgraded to an Old Quick Flak.
|Old Sweat
|Defeat Uber Tank
During level 9 (Battle of the Ancre), at the very end you will come up against the massive Uber Tank. To take it down as quickly, replace all anti-infantry towers you have with mortars and upgrade them. Note that the Uber tank can, and will crush some of your towers occasionally, as well as drop out some smaller tanks. Rebuild as needed, but spend the rest of your time shooting it with the Whippet tank.
|Coffin Nails
|Complete the Campaign
This is a story related achievement and will unlock with natural progression.
Complete all 12 levels of the Campaign.
|Foot Slogger
|Earn General Rank on any level
You should get this during the first level. Survive all the waves without a single enemy entering your toy box and you'll get General rank at the end of the level.
|Pickled Monkey
|Win a Multiplayer Match on every level
You can either get this locally, online, or a mixture of both.
|Throw a Seven
|Complete any level in Elite mode
Keep playing the game until you unlock the Red Star. Once you have it, load up level 1 (Langemarck 1914). Place the Red Star down at the beginning of the choke point and a Vicker's Machine Gun (upgraded to level 2+) to the right of it.
|Pip, Squeak & Wilfred
|Survive until Round 5
You won't be able to set your difficulty for this achievement, so be prepared as you will be overwhelmed. You start off on a level with an armored rail tank firing at your position, with just 20 points in your toy box. This tank will also occasionally stop to send some armored infantry at you. I have provided a Map to show you how I survived until wave 6. Firstly build the machine gun towers, followed by the chemical tower. After you have enough money, upgrade them all to level 2.
|Fire in the Hole
|Guide a shell to its destination
You can get this during the tutorial level. Build yourself a howitzer then manually take control of it. Then press and hold to go into shell camera. Once the shell hits the ground, the achievement should pop.
|Sweet Fancy Adams
|Earn General Rank on all Campaign levels
The easiest way to get this is by playing all levels on casual. Go through each level making sure not a single enemy makes it to your toy box. If one does, go back to it using the level select.
|Brass Hat
|Complete Campaign+ and earn all Ration Tickets
To unlock Campaign+, first complete the regular campaign. Then you must obtain all 24 ration tickets (12 from each campaign). Follow this guide for all the ration tickets.
|DLC: The Kaiser's Battle
|Price: $4.99 USD Achievements: 3 Points: 50
|Base Rat
|Find all of the golden cubes in The Kaiser's Battle
There are a total of 15 golden cubes, 5 for each level the list is as follows.
Operation Gneisenau
The Last Offensive
|Land Ship
|Defeat the K-Wagen
The boss of Kaiser's Battle isn't too difficult to beat, but can be a little confusing since it regenerates its health a few times. The K-Wagen drives in a straight line down the bridge in the middle. Just build six level 3 Howitzers and keep turning them to face it using and . It shouldn't take too long to defeat using this method.
|Grass Cutter
|Get a 40x blast combo
This can be a bit awkward if you are trying to get all the DLC achievements in one play but can be done. On The Last Offensive play through as normal until you get to the wave of planes that come just before the last infantry wave. Turn all but one of your Howitzers to face away from the bridge using or . Then take control of the Howitzer facing the bridge (make sure its level 3) and aim for the north side of the bridge. When the infantry wave starts fire and guide your shell to hit the middle of the mass of troops you should easily get more than a x40 combo.
|DLC: Invasion!
|Price: $4.99 USD Achievements: 3 Points: 50
|Foo Fighter
|Shot down 40 UFOs with your P-51 Mustang
This achievement is best done in the first mission. The P-51 is on the runway to the left of your starting position. Hop in it right at the start and go at full speed to the far end of the map. At this point, slow down and shoot down UFOs as they spawn on the left and right sides. You can easily get 20-30 here before you have to go build turrets to defend your base. Build up your defenses including two level two anti-air defenses, and then when you see more UFOs are going to spawn, jump in the P-51 and head toward their spawn points. If there are zeppelins around, keep your distance or they will shoot you down.
|Mr. Roboto
|Defeat RoboBob
This is the boss of the third and final level. He spawns in the houses to the right of the airfields and circles the map on his way to the toy box. The best weapon to use is a level 2 anti-air turret. The AI will shoot at him as well, but you will do significantly more damage if you manually fire the turret next to your toy box entrance starting as soon as he spawns. He does morph through three phases, but all three phases should be defeated by the time he gets up onto the final straight away if you have sold any artillery and placed all four large turrets as level 2 anti-air. Note that level 3 anti-air, while important to get to this point, doesn't seem to actually affect RoboBob, so sell them and replac with level 2.
|Find all of the golden rockets in Invasion
This is glitched for many people, but can be easily remedied. To determine if you are experiencing the glitch, shoot any of the rockets. If you fail to get an alert at the bottom right corner, then you are unable to earn this achievement unless you go into options and delete all game progress. However, this fix does seem to work 100% of the time, and does not impact the playability of the DLC.

Finally, a movie for people who love Glee and for people who want to see everyone at William McKinley High get stabbed in the throat.
Mixing bloodshed and Broadway, horror musical Stage Fright balances Carrie sight gags with xylophone comedy. It begins on a night 10 years ago, when Broadway star Kylie Swanson (Minnie Driver) is viciously murdered by a masked stranger. A decade later, her children Camilla (Allie MacDonald) and Buddy (Douglas Smith) are cooks in a summer music camp run by their mother's now-humbled producer (Meat Loaf in a Gilbert & Sullivan-esque portrayal of ruptured pomposity). Desperate to restore his ailing career, he decides to re-enact their mother's final show with the overly chirpy kids of the camp. That is, until more bodies start piling up. But, hell, the show must go on!
Can horror and musicals really mix? Well, Sondheim pulled it off in Sweeney Todd, and Stage Fright deliciously adds hilarity to the already rich mix. Writer/director Jerome Sable ("The Legend of Beaver Dam") finds kissing cousins in Freddie Kreuger and the Phantom of the Opera. He keeps the bloodshed gross if sparse until a final massacre that's a clear nod to summer camp classic The Burning, while co-composer Eli Batalion's ear for subversive show tunes makes this the best unconventional operetta since South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut.

Today, we're releasing Milestone 3 for the ViC 3.0 for evaluation and feedback. This is the third milestone in our migration to the Plone/OpenCore platform.
This version adds the following features:
Mailing lists
Group Calendaring
Documents & Resources
Blogging (Docs & Resources can be posted to any blog software supporting the metaweblog API)
We are making our corse source code available, which can be installed in any Zope-2.9.6 server with the opencore and CalCMF products available. Additionally .debs for ubuntu dapper & feisty are also availible.
Just released is the first test release of the 2.5 with a (mostly) working installer. This should ease installation significantly.
If you choose to download and install, please report all bugs & complaints to the sf bug tracker. Thanks!
Three quick bits of news:
1) We have released an interim release that is for the brave folks who would like to try their hand at installing ViC with out an installation script. Issues should be directed to firstname.lastname@example.com.
2) Our SVN repository is now live.
3) Commits to the subverison repository are noted in the vic-svn mailng list. The archive for the list is here:
The ViC team is happy to announce that the archives for our development and user mailing lists are now open to the public.
devel archive: http://opensource.perpich.com/discussions/archive.cgi/vic-devel%40opensource.perpich.com
user archive
RSS feeds of the posts are also available.
Here are the minutes from our first meeting. The meeting took place on
June 9th, 2006 at 3PM EDT.
Discussions took place regarding the next two milestone releases,
tentatively scheduled for the end of the 3rd and 4th quarters
Milestone #1:
1) Ease Installation: Currently, installation is a pain requiring some in
depth knowledge of our work, zope, plone, mailman and smartarchiver. Work
as already been done in this direction and we are hoping that by the end
of the 3rd quarter it will be possible to use standard installation tools
for most of the process.... read more

Released: Jul 01st, 2006
Running Time: 91
Director: Brian Mills
Company: Titan Media
Cast: Joey Caruso, Derrick Hanson, Brad Star, Josh West, Niko Reeves, Ford Tuff, Troy Gamaun
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Gay and Bi
The new ManPlay continues, ditching full-cast orgies as it focuses on three no-nonsense scenes that get right down to business. Derrick Hanson makes an instant impression as his boner quickly pops out of his jeans, with Troy Gamaun dropping to his knees to eat it up. Gamaun gets it all wet, pulls it down and lets it pop up as spit flies off it. After some docking with Gamaun's thick, uncut piece, the two shoot before the anal play starts. Hanson gets in some good thrusts (caught in some solid overhead shots), and a nice sit-down fuck has Gamaun's boner bouncing. Brad Star then exchanges slurp work with Niko Reeves, who maintains a particularly nice erection that stays hard as he gets fucked. A hairy threesome closes things out, with Josh West taking control of Ford Tuff and Joey Caruso. Turned On is a solid entry in the series.
Retailing: The orgy is gone, but the sex is real as ever.

I very much enjoy adding location data with this plugin.
One thing I noticed is that if I have a group of posts (such as a bunch of photos) using the same location, there is really no way to visualise the individual markers unless they are each moved slightly to unique locations.
This is very time consuming and a bit hit and miss with the current interface, since I don't see a way to manipulate and update a group of markers together.
How do other people deal with this scenario ?

Play time : January 15, 2011 to February 26, 2011
One of the most promising young talents in all of Reggae music, Dutch star Maikal X, has just made his first contribution to the betterment of Reggae shelves around the world by dropping what has to be one of the most anticipated debut albums of the year, 'Genesis'. Over the past couple of years or so, and particularly within the last year, Maikal X has established his name as one of the strongest singers in the game and in doing so has made this project a really big deal for fans.
'Genesis' comes via the same Rock'N Vibes imprint which listeners should know from having previously put Ziggi Recado on the map and if that was any indication, this one should be big. The album features previous grand hits such as Best In You, Warning and Bear With Me and also potentially mouth watering combinations alongside Luciano, Peetah Morgan and Hawaiian songstress, Irie Love.

I'd like to write a small Bluetooth server application to my Nokia phone in PyS60. It needs to be able to send response to the client's request and be able to push data to the client as well.
option 1:
if I use
socket.recv(1024), the program waits until something is received, therefore the server can't push data to the client. The Python for S60 implementation is missing the
socket.settimeout() method, so I couldn't write a proper non-blocking code.
oprion 2:
socket.makefile() approach was looking good, but couldn't make it work. When I replaced the
conn.recv(1024) to
fd = socket.makefile() fd.readline(), it didn't read a thing.
option 3:
Looked into the
select() function, but had no luck with it. When I changed the
conn.recv() to the
r,w,e = select.select([conn],[],[]) like it's been suggested the client doesn't even connect. It hangs at "Waiting for the client...". Strange...
I know that there are pretty nice server implementations and asynchronous API-s as well, but I only need a really basic stuff here. Thanks in advance!
here's what I have:
sock = btsocket.socket(btsocket.AF_BT, btsocket.SOCK_STREAM)
channel = btsocket.bt_rfcomm_get_available_server_channel(sock)
sock.bind(("", channel))
btsocket.bt_advertise_service(u"name", sock, True, btsocket.RFCOMM)
print "Waiting for the client..."
conn, client_mac = sock.accept()
print "connected: " + client_mac
while True:
data = conn.recv(1024)
if len(data) != 0:
print "received [%s]" % data
if data.startswith("something"): conn.send("something\r\n")
conn.send("some other data \r\n")
It's obviously blocking, so the "some other data" is never sent, but it's the best I've got so far. At least I can send something in reply to the client.

It's that time of year again - the weather has given up the pretence of caring, the trees are shedding their leaves like a sinking ship sheds ballast, and the sun can't summon the energy to stay in the sky for longer than is absolutely necessary. Thankfully all is not lost as Diageo are about to release their much anticipated Special Releases Range.
Diageo is a multi-national drinks company that owns twenty-eight working distilleries and the remaining stock of a number of closed ones, and every year they release a selection of limited releases from some of these distilleries.
With such a large portfolio to draw from these whiskies tend to be the cream of the crop and get us whisky geeks slathering at their merest mention [go on, find a whisky geek and mention it, watch it slather…].
So this evening we all trooped to London to taste these high-demand whiskies in the warm and, more importantly, dry confines of The Deck at the National Theatre. Last time I was in this theatre I watched Benedict Cumberbatch (that guy off of Sherlock) prance around the stage as Frankenstein's monster with nothing but his self-esteem to cover his modesty. This time I came armed with a notebook and pen - ready to record my experience of facing this enormous tackle of whisky.

Last night played host to one of the biggest events in the whisky calendar: the launch of the Diageo Special Releases. This annually released selection showcases the very best whiskies in the global drinks giant's unrivalled arsenal, including massive crowd pleasers like Lagavulin, Caol Ila, and the legendary Port Ellen.
Unlike Ben, who's off doing some 'real work' in the form of running the Cocktail bar at the Movember Launch Party for 750 people, then doing a sampling of our new Movember Whisky until the small hours, I've been lucky enough to sit in a lovely warm room, with lovely warm people, drinking delicious and exclusive whiskies all evening. Also I spend too much on male grooming products and have a penchant for singing about my feelings. I'm also not very competent at sending through images by e-mail, and am currently asleep in my bed, like the weaksauce young man that I am, and hence uncontactable by phone so you'll notice that the images herein are stock images from Diageo's Powerpoint presentation. Sorry about that. This paragraph may or may not have been written by me. More...

We've been sitting on this one for a few days now, ever since the email from Diageo arrived. In fact, this has been under strict embargo until today! You guessed it folks, Diageo's 2011 Special Releases!
Every year, the Special Releases mark a particular highlight for us, as the global drinks giant showcases the very crème de la crème of its extensive inventory. This year sees some sure-to-be-stunners, including a 21 year old Rosebank, a 20 year old Port Dundas, and a 40 year old Glenury Royal, not to mention crowd pleasers like the Caol Ila Unpeated, Port Ellen, Brora, and cask strength Lagavulin. Here's a brief synopsis of what's to come, starting with our favourite from last year, the Brora… More...

After a hearty breakfast of bacon, eggs, black pudding, white pudding and potato scones, we left the cottage for Bowmore. There were only 100 bottles of Bowmore's official 2011 Feis Ile bottling, so we didn't worry about turning up too early; there was literally no hope of picking one up. In fact, the die-hards had been camped out since the wee hours for a prized bottle. It begs the question why they didn't simply make more. Oh well. More...

Well, as we write this post we're basking in the warm glow of the candelabra, and the unforgiving light of a laptop screen, which is down to its last 20% of battery life. That's right, there's been a powercut. Just like the story of the optimist and the pessimist… The pessimist says: "this is terrible, it can't possibly get any worse!" the optimist says: "oh yes it can…"
Right now it's cold, dark, damp and miserable outside, but we're soldiering on.
Today began promisingly, with Caol Ila's open day, though the weather was not on our side. We parked on a grassy hill in force 10 gales, and were gracefully ushered to the distillery bus by what felt like a hurricane. We then drove down to the Caol Ila distillery, the most remote on the island.

Hip tech-centric events like SXSW and TED have muscled into its territory, Microsoft is bailing and Apple has always stayed home. And yet, the Consumer Electronics Show has still got juice for some 140,000 gadget hounds, journalists and other citizens of the world of tech set to descend on Las Vegas this week for the annual expo.
The launch pad for seminal devices like the VCR and Nintendo Entertainment System—and more recently, innovations including the Blu-ray disc, Microsoft's Xbox and 3-D television—this is being billed as the second-largest CES ever, hosting more than 2,700 exhibitors and a roster of speakers from organizations ranging from NBCUniversal and NPR to NASA.
But once again, the gathering is making news for who's not there—most notably Apple, which opts to stage its own high-drama launch events. Microsoft, after a 14-year run, said this year would mark its last CES appearance (CEO Steve Ballmer is set to give the opening keynote). And following reported troubles lately with its 4G service and the disastrous (and since reversed) decision to charge customers a $2 "convenience fee" to pay their bills online or over the phone, Verizon CEO Lowell McAdam abruptly dropped out of a panel discussion featuring chief executives at this year's CES. (John Stratton, head of Verizon's enterprise services division, will fill in.)
Meanwhile, as the development of technology and content in silos is history and partnerships among content producers, service providers and gadget makers proliferate, media companies are flocking to the event.
Consequently, the CES program has evolved. Media and entertainment players have always had a presence there but no longer are simply another group gawking at all the new toys—they make news themselves.
When 3-D TV technology is trotted out at the CES show, DreamWorks' Jeffrey Katzenberg is up there on stage with the TV manufacturers to promote his latest production.
And no wonder, since for those looking to launch compelling devices, a key question is: Will the content be any good?
"As cool as we think hardware is, what really makes the world move are the media and the content behind it," says Stephen Baker, vp of industry analysis at market research firm NPD. "More and more of the challenge for the electronics industry in general is, how do we profitably sell hardware when an increasing amount of the value lies after the purchase? How people own, rent, buy and view content, that's at the core of so many products today."

Whether they're deployed, supporting a child who is serving or holding down the fort while dad's away- there is one thing our nation's military moms can count on this Mother's Day- the support of the USO. While people across the country are thinking of ways to make this Mother's Day special for their moms, the USO has made it possible for everyone to show we have not forgotten the moms who won't get to see their children, husbands or possibly even hear their voices this May 13th because they are making the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. There are five ways you can show a military mom your appreciation:
1. A Phone Call Home and give a mom serving the gift of hearing her child's voice this Mother's Day or a mom or wife at home, the gift of hearing the voice of their child or spouse
2. A Military Spouse Appreciation Event and treat a mom serving to a day of pampering
3. Bedtime Stories and allow a deployed mom to record herself reading a bedtime story to her child and have that DVD recording and the book mailed back home
4. A Mother's Day Box filled with gifts, pampering products and a personalized note for the wife, girlfriend or mother of a deployed service member
5. Recovery Along the River and help send wounded, ill or injured female service members on a positive, recreational trip that will provide them with a temporary sanctuary free of stress and uncertainty.

'We're Here for the Soldiers': How One Volunteer Couple Answered the Call to Serve at USO Fort Hood
Anne Cosper always wanted to volunteer at the USO. So when her daughter, who currently serves in the U.S. Army, was reassigned to Fort Hood – only an hour drive from her Georgetown, Texas, home – she decided it was the perfect opportunity to get involved at the USO center on base.

Akerman was due to be there so it was doubly poignant to watch this simple film about her mother's last months through the lens of Akerman's own death. At one point, a typically long shot shows mother and daughter silhouetted together in her mother's darkened living room, resting on different sides of the room, making it feel like a kind of ante-chamber of mortality. At another ,Chantal and her sister, Sylviane, are trying to keep their mother awake in her chair by asking her to tell a story of what she did yesterday - it seems desperate but then tSylviane and her mother manage to tell a very funny anecdote together about a woman they saw with a very large bosom and an very small dog who was licking her thoroughly, at the conclusion of which the mother rallies to remark "By now she must have polluted the whole of Brussels". The whole film which I found very compelling is a subtle blend of melancholia and humour which very movingly portrays the intimacy of everyday life in Akerman's family and the enormous affection between mother and daughters.Lizzie Thynnehttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-925395536023721138.post-16593583601685884352015-04-15T14:24:42.456+01:002015-04-15T14:24:42.456+01:00Thanks so much, Fiona.Thanks so much, Fiona.Catherine Granthttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-925395536023721138.post-242251705623980972015-04-15T10:52:11.714+01:002015-04-15T10:52:11.714+01:00Thanks for this beautiful tribute.

PUMA Retail Selects JDA Allocation to Streamline the Execution of its Assortment Strategies
Leading sportlifestyle company starts journey towards store-specific demand oriented assortment and inventory optimisation
Leading sportlifestyle company starts journey towards store-specific demand oriented assortment and inventory optimisation
Scottsdale, Ariz. – February 14, 2013 – JDA® Software Group, Inc. (http://www.jda.com/)
PUMA, founded in 1948, designs and develops footwear, apparel and accessories. The company distributes its products in more than 120 countries, employs more than 11,000 people worldwide and has headquarters in Herzogenaurach (Germany) Boston (United States) and London (England).
Facing an industry shift towards higher volumes, more clearly defined segments, developing categories and emerging geographies, PUMA Retail selected JDA® Allocation to help achieve demand-oriented execution of store assortments. In addition to these broad challenges, PUMA Retail will look to JDA® Allocation to help address low-size-level availability, high markdowns and inefficient visual merchandising due to a lack of space and presentation requirements. PUMA Retail will also seek improvements of in-season item performance and non-effective and manual case pack allocation, and address high manual workloads that result in an inability to operate frequent allocations.
This investment serves as PUMA Retail's first step toward realising globally integrated planning, assortment and allocation management. The ultimate goal is to achieve a common understanding of market needs with maximum transparency to address customer needs in the most efficient way. This will enable PUMA Retail to be more flexible, agile and adaptive and will contribute significantly to its increasingly sharp focus on retail.
"JDA® Allocation is one of the most robust solutions in the marketplace and we believe it will help us to quickly and effectively optimise store-specific allocations across our entire retail enterprise,"
"We are delighted that an industry leader like PUMA Retail has selected JDA® Allocation based on the business benefits it will deliver," said Mark Morgan, Regional Vice President EMEA, JDA Software. With more than 120 live customers, JDA® Allocation helps companies automate their allocation processes by better tailoring the right products to the right stores, improve availability, control inventory and reduce the risk of markdowns."

Decisions by Canadian Natural Resources (CNQ) and Talisman Energy (TLM) to sell almost 500K acres in the Montney shale, one of western Canada's largest gas finds, threaten to depress prices for land that drew a record premium last year. But companies proposing liquefied natural gas terminals in Canada may not be done buying; private talks may have prompted CNQ and TLM to list the acreage for sale.

I argue that the teleological-historical reflections of the Crisis are an effort to clarify what Husserl calls the "ultimate presuppositions" of phenomenology. I begin by describing the kind of presuppositions revealed in natural-attitude and phenomenological reflection. I then consider how the ultimate presuppositions become problematic for Husserl. After clarifying the distinction between these presuppositions and those already handled by the reduction, I consider the appropriateness of the new reflections Husserl undertakes in order to address them.

Manny is our first carved stamp--so it's a little primitive, but that is appropriate for a mammoth. Manny is hibernating in Wolf Run Regional Park. The parking area is located on Yauger Road, east of Upper Gilchrist Road. The terrain includes some steep paths but this is a fun trail area because of it. The trail splits almost immediately off the parking lot. Take the left trail, Woodlands Trail. The path snakes around down the hill. Your first landmark is a fairly small tree that the path abruptly turns around. Youll know this is the right tree if you look to your left where a rock is embedded in the roots of a neighboring larger tree. Continuing on the trail, you can see ahead of you that the path starts to level out heading to the right. Just as it swings to the right there is a fallen tree where the mid-section has been removed across the path. Start counting from here. About 35 steps from the fallen tree there is a broken-off stump on the left. Manny is hiding at the base of this stump.
Please email if you have any trouble with the directions. (Box is planted with the permission of Knox County Park District/Mount Vernon City Parks).

text: Citroen's cars offer style and comfort – and models like the Citroen C4 Cactus promise an enticing blend of both, coupled with plenty of space. Most Citroens are good value too, thanks to economical diesel engines and long lists of standard equipment. There's a wide dealer network and many dealer franchises are independently run. It's worth noting that Citroen has split out its DS-badged cars (DS 3, DS 4 and DS 5) into a separate brand, simply called DS. It's an effort to make those models feel more upmarket, but for now, at least, you're still be able to buy and service DS models at your local Citroen dealer.
