Warrior Regiment
- Details
The Board of Directors of the Ewing Family Association (EFA) has approved the creation and development of an honorary veterans' group. The EFA hereby recognizes and salutes those EFA members and immediate family members who have faithfully served as veterans of the Armed Forces of the USA.
The veterans' group will exist as an honorary roster of veterans. However, there may be times at Scottish Heritage or EFA events whereby group members could 'muster up' and experience the esprit de corps that comes from not only being veterans but being of Ewing Scottish descent. The Clan Ewing Commander, Thor Ewing, has also given EFA approval for establishing the Warrior Regiment.
Our EFA veterans group will surely promote a sense of pride and energize the EFA membership. Let us hope our younger generations of Ewings appreciate this and other special groups within the EFA.
EFA Gathering 2016
- Details
Saline, Michigan, July 8-10
New! Register on-line on our web site. Details below.
The Ewing Family Association has its customary membership Gathering in even numbered years. The Gathering usually combines events (performances, tours, etc.) of family historical interest along with many occasions for fellowship and, yes, even a business meeting. Often we have gathered in places where there is significant "Ewing" history.
In 2016, EFA is taking a big step by having its Gathering coincide with the Saline (Michigan) Celtic Festival, Friday, July 8, through Sunday, July 10. If you visit the Festival web site, you'll see a very full program of "field events", music, dance, and a "wee folks" program. For our part, EFA will have a Clan Ewing tent, which will be a focus of our activities, fellowship, and (yes) food!
Full information is available through our Gathering 2016 page.
Please note: you should make your room or campsite reservation early, by April, to be sure of getting the best rates. Please go to the Gathering 2016 page and select either on-line (web) registration or the alternate printable registration form that can be mailed in with a check.

Report from Pleasanton Games, 2015
- Details
Larry on Parade!
From our cousin Larry Ewing:
As the volunteer Captain of the Clan Ewing tent I feel honored to have served and below is a summary of our presents at the 150th Scottish Gathering and Games in Pleasanton California September 5-6, 2015.
I arrived early Saturday morning at Pleasanton with my son Jeff and brother Tom. It was still dark but we found our space 201 and set up in time for the public admission at 8 am. The weather was very nice, clear and sunny in the mid 80's Saturday and plus 5 degrees on Sunday. We had a nice location on the lawn as most did but the traffic from the entrance seem to run behind us. This may explain why we had most visitors in the afternoon on their way out.
At 10:30 on both days there was a march of tartans to the center stage where we were introduced by clan as we arrived. I marched Saturday and son Jeffery dressed up and marched Sunday. There was also a meeting of the chiefs mid-Sunday and again with Ewing tartan banner I met a half a dozen important leaders. (sorry I did not remember who they were but let's call them the Brass!)
Jeff Ewing, Terry Ewing, Linda Ewing, Mary Ewing, Beverly and Roger Settlemire
Visitors at our booth were;
- Gail and Ted Fairfield from Pleasanton California. (current members I believe)
- Roger Settlemire and his friend Beverly from Northern California.
- Richard and Rebecca McBride.
- Jessica Ewing and her sister from Southern California. She is first-generation Scot in America.
- Heather Cooper, her daughter married a Ewing.
- David Ewing McCullough, mother is a Ewing. He is from Redmond Oregon and Walnut Creek, California part time.
- Tom McDermott and wife. He is in the DNA project and knows Thor Ewing from Facebook.
- John McEuen, a young man looking for his connection and link to the Ewing's.
- Samuel Postum, Ewing family from Ohio in the 1800s.
- Carolyn Jackson Mc Culla. Indian John decendant.
- Kerry and Mary Ewing, past EFA members that introduced me to Clan Ewing in America back many years ago.
- Marilyn Edwards Ewing, a descendent of Indian John, from Bend, Oregon. She also happens to be my sister.
And a special thanks to Tom Ewing brother, Jeffrey Ewing, son, Linda Ewing, wife, all Clan Ewing tent helpers.
Some visitors just grabbed a few flyers and said they knew a Ewing at work or other distant connections.
We gave out
- Ewing Family Association and Clan Ewing marketing trifold with membership directions.
- Ewing and EFA folders explaining clan history, Ewing Family Association history and a price list for the tartan items.
- We also gave out two copies of the EFA Journal.
- My personal Ewings in America information in 2 charts and the Pioneer James trifold.
- We had more that a dozen Tam o' Shanters, 5 ties and 4 ladies sashes to sell. We had these displayed on our front table and had lots of complements on the tartan design but no sales.
- We had a Ewing Clan stamp that Beth Toscos sent that was well used through out the day as young children with a goal to collect had us apply.
Conclusion; These Scottish gatherings have an emphasis on Scotland heritage for those tracing descendants from there.
We at EFA are focused on our Ewings in America and looking for a cousins here. That seems to be the major difference between EFA and our new Clan connection. [Webmaster's note: The relationship between EFA and Clan Ewing is an issue we continue to work on. Steve gives one point of view, but there may be others!]
With Thor's help we can be more informative back to our beginning with Ewen of Otter in the 1300s and merge our family history with more accuracy.

'Captain America 2' may have a 'Community' connection
Joe Johnston directed the first "Captain America" film and Joss Whedon handled the job for the upcoming "Avengers," but who will call the shots on the Cap sequel?
Marvel is trying to decide between three choices for the gig, according to the Vulture blog. George Nolfi ("The Adjustment Bureau"), F. Gary Gray ("The Italian Job") and, perhaps surprisingly, the directing team of Joseph and Anthony Russo -- of "Community" fame -- are being considered after the studio pared down a list of ten potential names.
The Russo brothers serve as executive producers on NBC's "Community" and have co-directed a number of episodes, as well as a number of "Arrested Development" episodes. They got their start in the feature business, however, directing the crime caper "Welcome to Collinwood" which starred George Clooney, William H. Macy and Sam Rockwell. They also directed the 2006 comedy "You, Me and Dupree." Their resume lacks action, but Marvel has made some inspired -- and unexpected -- directing choices in the past, from Kenneth Branagh to Jon Favreau. These new choices also seem to be relatively inexpensive names.
Nolfi, who co-wrote "The Bourne Ultimatum," has only directed one film: The critically divisive "Adjustment Bureau," starring Matt Damon and Emily Blunt.
Gray, on the other hand, has made his share of action films, including the aforementioned "Italian Job" remake, "Set It Off," "The Negotiator" and "A Man Apart."
"Captain America 2" will find Chris Evans reprising his role as the temporally-displaced super soldier Steve Rogers, but details on the plot have yet to surface.
We won't see the film until after "Thor 2" and "Iron Man 3," but in the meantime, Cap will join those heroes, plus Hulk, Black Widow and Hawkeye, in May's "The Avengers."
What do you think of these directorial choices?

Pachulski Stang Ziehl & Jones LLP (PSZJ) is the one of the
nation's leading corporate restructuring boutiques. Founded
in 1983 by a group of Sidley Austin attorneys, the firm has grown
to become the largest bankruptcy boutique in the country, with
offices in Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, and
Delaware. PSZJ attorneys are experienced in representing all
major constituencies in bankruptcy proceedings and out-of-court
workouts, including debtors, committees, trustees, bondholders,
asset purchasers, and third-party plan proponents. PSZJ also
handles sophisticated business litigation and transactional matters
as part of its restructuring practice.
In the Business of Bankruptcy
PSZJ is the firm to call when only a few dollars (or none) are
left in the bank. Its focus on corporate restructuring has brought
Fisker Automotive, American Suzuki Motor Corporation, Solyndra, the
creditors of A&P, Circuit City, American Eagle Energy, Wet
Seal, and even Mike Tyson knocking at its door. Its skill in
handling insolvencies has been hailed by The Wall
Street Journal, American Lawyer, Chambers and
Partners, U.S. News & World Report, and The
Daily Journal, which deems it "one of the best firms in the
country." As a specialized firm, PSZJ has in-depth knowledge of the
nuances of bankruptcy law, corporate law, avoidance and claims
litigation, private equity and distressed debt, and general
business and commercial litigation in industries and entities as
diverse as energy, healthcare, retail, food and beverage, real
estate, entertainment, finance, and archdioceses.
International Insolvents
PSZJ regularly represents domestic companies engaged in
international commercial activities and foreign entities doing
business, or involved in litigation or transactions, in the United
States. The firm works with its international clients on a
variety of complex financing, restructuring, general corporate, and
debtor-creditor matters, and is often recognized for its experience
in international or "cross border" insolvency cases. Just
recently, the firm won M&A Advisor's "Cross-Border
Restructuring Deal of the Year" for its representation of the
chapter 11 trustee in the "Restructuring of Georges Marciano,"
co-founder of Guess. The firm played pivotal roles in cases
with major international implications, successfully confirming
Solyndra's chapter 11 plan and as lead counsel to Digital Domain, a
Hollywood special effects company started by James Cameron.
Repping Both Sides
PSZJ's ability to handle both debtor and creditor work can be
seen just by looking at two recent matters in a single industry.
Over the past year, the firm was hired as co-counsel in the high
profile American Apparel bankruptcy, and was also hired to
represent the Unsecured Creditor's Committee in the chapter 11 Wet
Seal case. The firm has also been retained by creditors'
committees in several high profile energy (oil and gas) cases that
have swept the nation.

Looks like Zachary Quinto's eyebrows are boldly going where no man wants them to go…again. Zachary Quinto's eyebrows aren't living long or prospering!
To Trekkie's delight, J.J. Abrams's "Star Trek" sequel is officially underway! However, Quinto's return to the arched browed role of Spock has one serious downside: awkward grooming.
"My eyebrows are shaved and I do my hair in a way that people don't know I actually have my horrible Spock hair," he told E! Online's Marc Malkin.
But on set — his Spock brows in full glory — Quinto said "it's been an incredible return to that world."
After the gangbuster response to Abrams's 2009 "Star Trek" — somehow taking the franchise into the uncharted quadrant of cool — audiences have been eagerly awaiting some precious news about the sequel.
So you'll be happy to know that even its cast was left in the dark until just a month before shooting.
"It was the middle of December and finally I had to be like, 'We need to read the script,'" Quinto said. "They waited a pretty long time, but that's because they were working on it. There was a writer's strike the first time so they weren't able to let the script evolve. Now it's really changing…on a regular basis."
But, for the skeptical Trekkies out there, Quinto did say that the newbies — Benedict Cumberbatch, Peter Weller and Alice Eve — "have folded in so beautifully and brought a whole new level of intelligence and sensitivity."

SAN ANTONIO (AP) - the Shriners have voted to accept insurance money for the first time in their 87-year history in the hope of keeping all of its children's hospitals open.
Rod Brown is chairman of the Shriners hospital in Greenville, S.C. He says the group gave preliminary approval to the insurance plan at its annual meeting in San Antonio, but no decision is final until the close of the meeting on Thursday.
The Shriners have always provided care free of charge, using their endowment to help whoever they can. But the endowment is now badly depleted and could force the closure of some hospitals unless
the system makes changes.

I'm not very good at manual installation. I want to use lcurses, a binding of curses for Lua in a program, with
require('curses'). When I run
make in the lcurses directory, there is an error complaining about the path
LUA, defined in the Makefile, not existing.
I think I need to figure out where the correct Lua directory is, but I don't know where it might be. I've searched with Nautilus and its searching thingy, but I couldn't find a directory named "Lua" that had
lib, and
bin subdirectories, all of which seem to be wanted in the Makefile.
I'm not sure that the directory is the only issue, though. How do I set it up? I'm on Ubuntu 11.10, if that helps, and I've never managed to get a Lua
require thingy to work.
And this is what the beginning of the Makefile looks like:
# makefile for lcurses library for Lua
# dist location
# change these to reflect your Lua installation
LUAINC= $(LUA)/include
LUALIB= $(LUA)/lib
LUABIN= $(LUA)/bin

He smacked a ninth-inning grand slam to match a career high with seven RBIs in the Triple-A 51s' 10-9 loss Monday to the host Bees.
Vegas faced a 10-3 deficit entering the final frame but a six-run output, powered by Shealy's longball, came up just short.
Shealy, who went 2-for-5, also plated runs with a two-RBI double in the third and a bases-loaded fielder's choice in the seventh.
The 31-year-old slugger -- he was designated hitter and slotted cleanup Monday -- has 12 RBIs over his past three games and a total of 37 in 38 games.
Shealy had a pair of four-RBI games this season, including one Friday against Colorado Springs. He collected seven RBIs and went yard twice while playing for the Rockies' top affiliate against Fresno on June 9, 2006.
Shealy was Colorado's 11th-round Draft pick out of the University of Florida in 2002. He played parts of five seasons in the Majors before electing to sign with Toronto -- his fifth organization -- last February.
Darin Mastroianni, Manny Mayorson and Jason Lane each recorded three-hit games, and the 51s outhit their opponent, 19-13, in the loss.
The Bees' Paul McAnulty, Efren Navarro and Gil Velazquez collected three hits apiece, doing most of their damage against starter Jesse Litsch (0-1).
Salt Lake starter Ryan Ketchner (4-4) allowed two runs on seven hits over the game's first six innings.

King Lear

King Lear Society and Class Quotes
How we cite our quotes: Citations follow this format: (Act.Scene.Line). Line numbers correspond to the Norton edition.
Quote #10
Put on what weary negligence you please,
You and your fellows. I'll have it come to question.
If he dislike it, let him to our sister,
Whose mind and mine I know in that are one,
Not to be overruled. Idle old man,
That still would manage those authorities
That he hath given away! Now, by my life,
Old fools are babes again and must be used
With checks as flatteries, when they are seen
Remember what I have said. (1.3.13-23)
Here, Goneril talks about her retired father in a pretty condescending way that reveals some serious anger and resentment. She calls Lear an "idle old man" who is foolish enough to think that he still wields any power now that he's retired and has given his daughters all his land. According to Goneril, old men are just like babies—whiny, weak, and powerless.

Anti-anti Spambot seems to insinuate a fondness for Spambots.
How about instead: "The Anti-Spambot Aficionado". But in Spanish, that will increase the girth of its awesomeness.
EDIT: Terribly sorry, late night spelling let me down.
I disagree with Miel. I don't think Anti-anti-spambot means that you are pro-spambot per se, only that you are against measures taken to defeat spambots. This may be a small distinction, and you may well be a fifth-columnist, or someone who wants to buy peace for our time, or are just kinky that way.
I'll offer a parallel: People who are against childhood vaccinations are not necessarily for the disease in question.
Anti-anti-spambot would convey the idea that you are pro-spambot, not why that is your opinion.

|To provide leadership in developing feminist models for programs working to improve services to women who have been battered, to provide a national communication and resource network for battered women, and to form a national voice around battered women's issues and other important issues affecting women.[1]
The National Coalition Against Domestic Violence (NCADV) is an organization founded in 1978 in Washington, D.C. with a goal to "organize for collective power by advancing transformative work, thinking and leadership in communities and individuals who seek to end violence in our lives." [4] The organization not only focuses on domestic violence in the home, but also society-wide violence and factors which perpetuate violence against women and children. Over the years multiple corporate sponsors have joined up with NCADV to provide funding for the organization's services.
NCADV began at the United States Commission on Civil Rights hearing on battered women. What started out as only 100 individuals now boasts thousands of members working together and sharing their experiences of domestic violence. NCADV members came together to battle topics in addition to domestic violence such as homophobia, sexism, racism, and ageism. As of 2008, NCADV has been involved with multiple legislative acts including; the Family Violence Prevention and Services Act (FVPSA), International Violence Against Women Act, and Legislative Action Day. A list of their past legislative "priorities," are available on the NCADV website through 2004.
Working With Public Policy[edit]
In addition to making safe-homes and shelters available to battered women, NCADV also works to improve current public policy by collaborating with legislators on the federal level. The Washington, D.C. office for the organization is the public policy office from which leaders of the organization make efforts to change and improve legislation dealing with domestic violence. In 1994 the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence got involved with several other advocacy organizations and helped to pass the Violence Against Women Act signed by President Bill Clinton to provide funding for investigation into domestic violence as well as greater prosecution of offenders. Another topic dealt with within the organization is that of custody battles involving offenders of domestic violence. The National Coalition Against Domestic Violence works to create awareness of these situations and develop legislation which keeps the best interest of the children in mind.
NCADV sponsors conferences frequently in order to bring survivors and leaders together to freely speak on the topic of domestic violence and develop connections with one another.One of the most recent events was the 2008 National Coalition Against Domestic Violence Conference held July 18, 2008 in Washington D.C. The conference is held every two years and is a place for members to plan out future endeavors and commemorate past actions.[5] The National Coalition Against Domestic Violence is also credited with creating and observing the first Domestic Violence Awareness month in October 1987. In 1994, NCADV teamed up with Ms Magazine to create the Remember My Name Project,an ever-growing list of victims who have lost their lives to domestic violence. Lists are available currently from the year 1994 to 2004. It is estimated that every day in the United States, over three women are killed by a boyfriend or spouse.[6] Recently, as of early 2008, news releases report that television network ABC and their show 20/20 are in the process of considering airing an hour-long segment about a wife and mother suffering from domestic violence and receiving less-than-par treatment from the family court system.[7] The NCADV also creates Public Service announcements by way of short commercials to help increase awareness of domestic violence and help women affected by it to call their National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE (7233).[8]
Aside from offering shelter and support to victims, NCADV has also developed two programs for financial education and reconstructive surgery. In 2001 NCADV partnered with The National Endowment for Financial Education to produce a manual, titled Hope & Power for Your Personal Finances: A Rebuilding Guide Following Domestic Violence, which serves to inform and assist women who have been victims of domestic violence to regain financial freedom in their lives.[9] This program deals with topics including but not limited to budgeting, banking, lending, dealing with workplace abuse and identity theft. The Coalition Against Domestic Violence has also set-up and held workshops designed to train individuals to have the skills necessary for participation in financial education. Trainers must know how to handle individuals who have sustained abuse in their past relationships, while at the same time offering advice and guiding them. The program for cosmetic and reconstructive surgery, known as Cosmetic and Reconstructive Support or(CRS), deals with three medical associations including Face to Face, Give Back a Smile, and a program formerly known as Skin Care Outreach Empowers Survivors. In association with these three programs, NCADV is able to aid survivors in facial, dentistry, and dermatological reconstruction necessary to live a healthy life after suffering from domestic violence, and hopefully move on from their traumatic past. While other services are offered to domestic violence victims, CRS is the only one directly offered by NCADV. Additionally, NCADV has been working since the disaster of Hurricane Katrina in 2005 to relocate women who had previously been staying at women's shelters throughout affected areas. They have set up an outlet for other battered women's shelters throughout the country to advertise the availability of beds.
In August 2014 NCADV launched domesticshelters.org, the first online searchable database of domestic violence agencies in the U.S. It partnered with a family foundation called Theresa's Fund in Arizona to identify approximately 3,000 agencies and gather data on each, and develop and launch the website. The service makes it easier for an individual to find relevant agencies based on proximity, language preference and service needs.
Grant from the United States Department of Justice[edit]
In 1985, the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence applied for a grant from the United States Department of Justice to train police officers and other professionals to work with victims of family violence, to develop a model for others to use in starting shelters, and to distribute information and referral for victims of domestic violence.[10]
A director from the Free Congress Foundation opined that "pro-lesbian, hard-core feminists" should not receive a federal grant.[10] The Heritage Foundation also opposed the grant, calling the organization pro-lesbian and anti-family.
In response, the executive director of the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence said, "We are made up of diverse groups of women. We're trying to stop violence against all women. I'm shocked that the lesbian issue is being used against women who are trying to help themselves."[10] She said they help all women who are victims of domestic violence, and that they do not discriminate against particular groups of women.[10]
After reviewing the grant application, the Department of Justice awarded the grant to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence.[11] The National Coalition Against Domestic Violence agreed in writing that the grant funds would not be used for pro-lesbian causes.[11]

- An ISBN is the 10 or 13 digit number, usually printed on the back of a book with a bar code, that serves as a unique identifier for the book.
- Searching by ISBN is the best way to search because it will get you the exact title and edition that you need.
- Many professors include the ISBN on their syllabi or in their course management system.
If you don't have the ISBN, try a title or author search.
Title search
- Enter all words in the title you are looking for. The search engine will try to find books that have all the words you entered in the title. Leave out words such as "a," "an," or "the."
- When including edition, use numeric values. For example, "1st edition" instead of "first edition."
Author search
- Enter all or part of the author name you are looking for.
- You do not need to enter a first name, but if there are a lot of books by authors with the same last name, it may help to narrow the results.
- You can enter the name in any order such as "John Smith" or "Smith John." Avoid using a comma since it has a special meaning in the search.
Keyword search
- You can search by keyword but this approach is not recommended as it will likely return a large set of results.
- If you want to search by keyword, try a combination of author and keyword. For example, "Warren Accounting" where "Warren" is the author and "Accounting" is the keyword.
To refine your results, use the filtering/sorting options
- Filter options include product type and discipline area. Sort options include alphabetical sort (ascending or descending) and copyright year (ascending or descending).

Each chapter of FUENTES: LECTURA Y REDACCIÓN is designed to enhance the development of your reading and writing skills, your understanding of Hispanic cultures and societies, as well as your awareness of your own cultural beliefs, values, and assumptions. As you work through FUENTES: LECTURA Y REDACCIÓN, remember that learning to read and write in Spanish is a process. In fact, you are probably still learning to interpret texts and write well in your native language. But you can make this process flow more easily by reading and writing something in Spanish every day, even if it is just a note. More important, stop every now and then to check your progress. Read something in Spanish that has nothing to do with class; you may not understand everything, but you will probably understand at least part of it. Though it is often forgotten, the fact is that people do much of their reading and writing for pleasure, and we, the authors of this text, hope that the readings and writing activities in Fuentes will spark your imagination and continued interest in the Spanish-speaking world.

Released: Aug 12th, 2008
Running Time: 225 Min.
Director: Mike Quasar
Company: Zero Tolerance Entertainment
DVD Extras: Behind the Scenes, Still Gallery(ies), Trailer(s), Widescreen
Cast: Karlie Montana, Joanna Angel, Tori Black, Aubrey Addams, Ryan Keely, Jenny Hendrix, Sasha Grey, Aiden Starr, Alexis Texas, Nikki Rhodes, Crissy Moon, Roxy DeVille, Lisa Ann, Kelly Skyline, Amber Lynn, Ann Marie Rios, Annabelle Lee, Renae Cruz, Dakoda Brookes, Devi Emmerson, Others
Critical Rating: AAAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
Look forward to two-discs of the most scintillating sex as private school girls vs. reform school girls in this latest installment of the award-winning Girlvana series. Whether you're a fan of the bad girl or the soft and sweet teacher's pet, this collection of sex-starved co-eds will get your gonads going. With a complete arsenal of toys, titties, twats and tongues, this all-girl classic is not to be missed. Warning: If you suffer from a heart condition, please consult your physician as a ride on this all pink pleasure parade may leave you short of breath!
Once again, Quasarman reaffirms his mastery of the girl/girl esthetic with this fourth installment of his quim blowout series, Girlvana, whose previous edition took home the prize at last January's 25th Anniversary AVN Adult Movie Awards for Best All-Girl Release.
As with Girlvana 1-3, this 20-girl jamboree of 'gina is divided into two groups, each on its own separate disc. And while the juxtaposed caucuses this time around probably aren't the first that would jump to most people's minds, they are clever: private school girls vs. reform school girls.
In the first category, most spank-riffic honors have to go to the closing fourway between Tori Black, Aubrey Addams, Karlie Montana and Crissy Moon ... though fans of MILF/young girl match-ups will surely be pleased aplenty with porn legend Amber Lynn's mauling of Jenny Hendrix.
It's a pair of industry vets, however, who steal the entire show: serendipitously coupled namesakes Ann Marie Rios and Lisa Ann. Contained in the reform school set (disc two), their scene has a similar theme to the Lynn/Hendrix one, in that it's a teacher/student scenario. But both women in this case are downright animalistic, and to call their desktop romp "explosive" is no overstatement.
A number of other top-draw names appear here, including Sasha Grey, Joanna Angel and Roxy DeVille. But all told, the entire production is simply balls-out, unflaggingly blazing from stem to stern. Could this be the most aptly named porn series ever? Well, if nothing else, it certainly can't be accused of peddling anything it doesn't deliver.
Retailing: Remind g/g fans of volume three's AVN win this year.

- You have a website http://www.example.com that redirects to a project on Google App Engine (i.e. example.appspot.com);
- you want communications to pass between the user over SSL (i.e. https://example.appspot.com); and
- You want the domain to be shown to the user to be *://www.example.com (i.e. not https://example.appspot.com).
Given that Google's Appspot HTTPS support only works for https://example.appspot.com (i.e. you cannot set up https://www.example.com with GAE), I'd like to have an Ajax solution, namely:
- http://www.example.com serves HTML and Javascript over http
- Ajax requests go over SSL to https://example.appspot.com
My question/concern is: How does one ensure that the users logged into http://www.example.com (by way of Google's users API) pass their authentication credentials over Ajax to https://example.appspot.com?
This seems to be a violation of the same origin policy (which may or may not be a concern for the Google Users API), so how would one know what user is logged in to example.com for the Ajax requests to example.appspot.com?
Thoughts, comments and input is quite appreciated.
Thank you.

Quick Fixes
There used to be a time when celebrities had a human wall of assistants, publicists, and literal wall-fillers who had no other job than to buffer their clients from the world. But then Twitter happened, and now no publicist in the universe can stop a drunk, bored, attention-starved human from exorcising their dumbest thought-demons at the click of a button. Which is why we're seeing some great comedy coming from non-comedians on Twitter.
#5. Football Player Can't Stop Being a Creep
Arizona Cardinals defensive end Darnell Dockett is not afraid to speak his mind on social media, such as the time he posted a racist tweet and then promised he wouldn't apologize for it.
"Man's got to have principles ... shitty ones, but still ..."
The X-Files ruined an entire generation: they made us think conspiracy theorists are sexy, tormented truth crusaders, as opposed to bored message board dwellers with cartoon pony avatars. Fortunately, every once in a while they'll come up with a theory so perfectly stupid that we just have to drop whatever we're doing and tell you about it. Here are five recent paranoid fantasies that would make Fox Mulder laugh his ass off while slowly backing away from whoever spouted them.
#5. "Apple Pay Is the Mark of the Beast!"
Over the last decade, Apple has acquired a legion of new followers, a success that many place on their clever marketing, innovative products, and not being Microsoft. Others argue that it's only because Lucifer has bewitched our minds and rendered us unable to buy anything not available on iTunes. The evidence of this satanic pact? The fact that the Apple Watch and Apple Pay were totally predicted by the Bible.
Geoffrey Grider
And then Christ did say, "Not another freaking iOS update, I just did one last week." (Giuseppe 17:6)
Humans have been doling out orgasms for hundreds of thousands of years, so you'd think we'd have that shit down pat by now. Yet every day, some sextrepreneur introduces a new gizmo that will supposedly reinvent fucking, because clearly that's a subject we haven't given enough thought to already. Although there's nothing wrong with using a toy to get your rocks off, every now and then, one pulses and throbs onto the market that is so inherently wrong on every level that its creator must be an alien trying to get our species to go extinct.
Or at least, that's how we rationalize the existence of some deeply unsexy new adult products, such as ...
#4. The Glov: An Automatic Wearable Dildo for the Extremely Lazy
The independent career woman of today probably has no time for things like changing diapers, cooking sandwiches, or wanking by herself. That's why a man by the name of Steve Scrase has taken it upon himself to make female masturbation easier and more convenient with The Glov, a self-stimulation sex toy designed for chicks who are so lazy that they can't even be bothered to put the proper vowels at the end of words.
The Glov is, by all appearances, a completely normal hand garment:
If you're about to undergo a hardcore '80s dance-off, we mean.
If there's one thing Hollywood loves, it's doing the exact same thing over and over again until there is no more blood to be wrenched from a particular stone (such as the upcoming glut of superhero films, and the fact that all movie trailers are orange and blue now). So let's take a look at the upcoming year Tinseltown has in store for us so we can see what we'll all be tired of by this time next year.
#5. Every Network Will Have Its Own Subscription Streaming App
We're guessing that your current television-watching outlets consist of Netflix, Hulu, maybe a friend's HBO Go password, and possibly Amazon Prime, because who can afford to miss even one second of Alpha House? That's four different services, and it still doesn't give you access to every show on TV. Still, subscribing to a handful of different services is better than paying for cable and having to sit through commercials, right? Well get ready to double that number, because next year, every major studio and their grandmother is going to be putting out their own streaming site.
For starters, HBO is finally going to release a standalone subscription service right around the time when the new season of Game of Thrones starts (we assume they're going to abandon all pretense and just call it the "Watch Game of Thrones Without Getting a Virus from a Racist's Bit Torrent" app). Also throwing their million dollar hats into the streaming service arena are CBS, Starz, and Lionsgate, so now you can have a streaming service dedicated entirely to the Hunger Games movies and films starring professional wrestlers.
Lionsgate Entertainment
And that cross-over they did.

Student Perspectives
My advice: compartmentalize and engage with your classmates. Balancing everything can be a lot, and most times you'll go from work to class and directly home. It's difficult to engage with others in the program on top of what we all have going on. However, these are the exact two areas I'd harp on myself or anyone else starting the program. Force yourself to be mindful of only your immediate task at hand, and make a point to engage with others in the program.

This is the best ping pong / table tennis shot I have ever seen. Based on the look of the guy who got beaten on the point, he hadn't ever seen anything like this either. In the immediate aftermath of the shot, there is a brief moment where he maybe wants the shot to be called illegal. Then he just accepts that he had something awesome happen against him, so he applauds the shot. If there was ever actual cause for one of those excessive ping pong celebrations, this shot is it.

Leave these things entirely to the DBMS.
Most if not all DBMSes these days come with, or can be configured to work with monitoring software such that the DBA can be paged at 3AM should diskspace become a problem.
Of course, most DBAs would be rather more pro-active in monitoring something as basic as storage requirements to avoid being woken at such a time.
In general, when using a DBMS, you want to leave the headaches of monitoring and error conditions to the DMBS and its monitoring software. But be sure to talk with your devops team if you're building an enterprise class mission critical app.

The 15th ACM SIGPLAN International Conference on Functional Programming (ICFP) took place on September 27–29, 2010 in Baltimore, Maryland. After the conference, the programme committee, chaired by Stephanie Weirich, selected several outstanding papers and invited their authors to submit to this special issue of Journal of Functional Programming. Umut A. Acar and James Cheney acted as editors for these submissions. This issue includes the seven accepted papers, each of which provides substantial new material beyond the original conference version. The selected papers reflect a consensus by the program committee that ICFP 2010 had a number of strong papers that link core functional programming ideas with other areas, such as multicore, embedded systems, and data compression.

This article describes the preparation of starch particles, by spray drying, for possible application to a dry powder coating process. Dry powder coating consists of spraying a fine powder and a plasticizer on particles. The efficiency of the coating is linked to the powder morphological and dimensional characteristics. Different experimental parameters of the spray-drying process were analyzed, including type of solvent, starch concentration, rate of polymer feeding, pressure of the atomizing air, drying air flow, and temperature of drying air. An optimization and screening of the experimental parameters by a design of the experiment (DOE) approach have been done. Finally, the produced spray-dried starch particles were conveniently tested in a dry coating process, in comparison to the commercial initial starch. The obtained results, in terms of coating efficiency, demonstrated that the spray-dried particles led to a sharp increase of coating efficiency value.

Every store has a number of clients that prefer Asian women. Stock according to the size of that customer base in your store.
This video is nearly two hours long with at least 24 separate scenes and 12 girls. It is difficult to determine whom you are watching but connoisseurs of Asian women will love the variety. More importantly, all of these women suck cock and take steamy loads on their faces, tits or bellies. The woodsmen are all disembodied cocks but at least they are big, hard and very functional cocks.
The emphasis is on oral, because anal and vaginal penetration is not portrayed. However, some of the girls play with toys in solo masturbation action and some take showers where they soap up every inch of their flesh. There is no annoying canned music or insipid dialog to impact the action, just Asian women acting like sexual objects for men.

Politics Smug 'n' Corny
I'm not one of those assholes who likes to dig up old-timey quotes and throw them around in a "history repeats itselfâ kind of way it's usually obvious and smug and incredibly corny. That said, I'm about to break my own rule. I was revisiting some texts from my fave war (World War I - HOLLA!!) and I came across Siegfried Sassoon's "A Soldier's Declaration" (published as an open letter in The Times in 1917):
I am making this statement as an act of wilful defiance of military authority, because I believe the War is being deliberately prolonged by those who have the power to end it.
I am a soldier, convinced that I am acting on behalf of soldiers. I believe that this war, upon which I entered as a war of defence and liberation, has now become a war of aggression and conquest. I believe that the purposes for which I and my fellow soldiers entered upon this War should have been so clearly stated as to have made it impossible to change them, and that, had this been done, the objects which actuated us would now be attainable by negotiation.
I have seen and endured the suffering of the troops, and I can no longer be a party to prolong these sufferings for ends which I believe to be evil and unjust. I am not protesting against the conduct of the War, but against the political errors and insincerities for which the fighting men are being sacrificed.
On behalf of those who are suffering now I make this protest against the deception which is being practised on them; also I believe that I may help to destroy the callous complacency with which the majority of those at home regard the continuance of agonies which they do not share, and which they have not sufficient imagination to realize.
The parallels between the Great War and our current debacle are beyond tenuous, but the subsequent frantic political sandbagging is what makes Sassoon's declaration interesting.
The British government first tried to court martial him (that means possible execution!), but decided to forgo the bad press and have him declared mentally ill instead. Sassoon was sent to Craiglockhart hospital in Scotland, where he was treated for shellshock and became both a middling poet and a big, flaming homo.

The scale for design action has been and still is expanding. A skill related to craftsmanship has evolved into a tool for societal change. Sustainable design involves negotiation of values and priorities, and balancing between the environmental, social, and financial factors. Thus, its processes must address several dimensions of different stakeholder interests. Designers can help to create platforms for such activities. In the end the collaborative - and systemic - approach may help to facilitate the co-creation of new, more sustainable way of life.
This keynote sheds light on what makes a design process sustainable, how different design methodologies can induce sustainability, and how design education can better support this goal. Through examples in design education and in contemporary sustainable design the keynote argues that to become more sustainable the design process must become more open and transparent, more sensitive to values and dialogue, and thus more iterative and reflective. Such development calls for open problem-based approach, collaborative mediation and distributed knowledge - a transdisciplinary design approach.
Design education for sustainability can enable the future professionals to better facilitate the collaboration and communication among several participants, to drive the important agendas. Design tackling complex contemporary problems of sustainability should aim to facilitate such platforms for transdisciplinary dialogues. Whether they are built top-down or then emerging from the grass roots, whether they are based on design aiming to improve or on design aimed to criticize, they must be aimed to induce dialogues on values and goals, and contribute for the change towards more sustainable setting for human life.
This was my keynote presentation in Factor Clave 7 conference, in 12th of September, 2013.

I used to be able to drag images out of Google Chrome and drop them into Windows Explorer or programs like Photoshop. Over the past while this has become erratic, sometimes working and others not, and now it seems not to work at all. When it doesn't work you get the no entry mouse pointer and nothing happens when you release the mouse button. The problem exists equally for images embedded in pages or when the image URL was opened directly.
I am using Chrome 13.0.782.55 beta-m on Windows 7 64-bit. But as steps below show this happens with Internet Explorer 9 too so perhaps the fault lies with Windows rather than the browsers.
The following steps can duplicate the problem on my setup.
- Open http://craniac.net/2011/04/29/surface-tension/, a page on my blog.
- Try to drag the picture of the aloe leaves to Windows Explorer. It doesn't work.
- Middle-click or use context menu to open the image in a new tab.
- Try to drag the image from the new tab. It doesn't work.
- Select the image URL, open IE9, paste the URL and navigate to it.
- Try to drag the image from IE9 to Windows Explorer. It doesn't work.
I originally thought this was a problem with Chrome but while typing this and finding it doesn't work with IE9 either I now think this may be something a recent Windows update has caused.
Using Save image as... still works so I can still get the image, just not as conveniently as drag & drop allows.
Any ideas on the cause, and more importantly the fix for this?

Every year, NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory looks at hundreds of objects throughout space to help expand our understanding of the Universe. Ultimately, these data are stored in the Chandra Data Archive, an electronic repository that provides access to these unique X-ray findings for anyone who would like to explore them. With the passing of Chandra's 15th anniversary in operation on August 26, 1999, the archive continues to grow as each successive year adds to the enormous and invaluable dataset.
Multiple images of a distant quasar are visible in this combined view from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory and the Hubble Space Telescope. The Chandra data, along with data from ESA's XMM-Newton, were used to directly measure the spin of the supermassive black hole powering this quasar. This is the most distant black hole where such a measurement has been made, as reported in our press release.
Astronomers have used NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory and a suite of other telescopes to reveal one of the most powerful black holes known. The black hole has created enormous structures in the hot gas surrounding it and prevented trillions of stars from forming.
This composite image of a galaxy illustrates how the intense gravity of a supermassive black hole can be tapped to generate immense power. The image contains X-ray data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory (blue), optical light obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope (gold) and radio waves from the NSF's Very Large Array (pink).
We are delighted to welcome Teddy Cheung, from the National Academy of Sciences, and resident at the Naval Research Laboratory in Washington DC, to give a guest blog post today. Teddy is first author of a paper describing the discovery of the most distant X-ray jet detected to date. Here, he explains some of the background story behind this discovery.
When I started graduate school in 1999 at Brandeis University, exciting discoveries were being made down the road in Cambridge, Massachusetts, with the then newly launched Chandra X-ray Observatory. The first Chandra image unexpectedly revealed a bright X-ray jet from a distant quasar (http://chandra.harvard.edu/press/99_releases/press_082399.html) and the research groups at SAO and MIT were puzzling over it. But it took me leaving Boston to find my eventual connection.
I spent the summer of 2000 at the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore, Maryland, wanting to learn something entirely new and took on a project in Meg Urry's group studying the galaxies of BL Lac objects (a type of cousin to the quasars) using ground-based near-infrared data. Coincidentally, I shared an office with another graduate student working with Dr. Urry for the summer, Fabrizio Tavecchio from Italy, and they were at that time puzzling over the same Chandra jet detection. Little did I appreciate at the time, that this visit to Baltimore would lead back to my eventual PhD project at Brandeis on the Chandra quasar jets.
This composite image shows the most distant X-ray jet ever observed. X-ray data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory are shown in blue, radio data from the NSF's Very Large Array are shown in purple and optical data from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope are shown in yellow. The jet was produced by a quasar named GB 1428+4217, or GB 1428 for short, and is located 12.4 billion light years from Earth. Labels for the quasar and jet can be seen by mousing over the image. The shape of the jet is very similar in the X-ray and radio data.
One of the lowest mass supermassive black holes ever observed in the middle of a galaxy has been identified, thanks to NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory and several other observatories. The host galaxy is of a type not expected to harbor supermassive black holes, suggesting that this black hole, while related to its supermassive cousins, may have a different origin.
For more context on CID-42 and the science of black hole kicks, we interviewed Professor Abraham (Avi) Loeb, one of the co-authors of the new paper. Avi is the director of the Institute for Theory and Computation, within the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, and he is currently serving as Chair of the Department of Astronomy at Harvard University. He was recently elected to become a member of the American Academy of Arts & Sciences. Avi has worked on a wide variety of topics in astrophysics, including cosmology, black holes, gravitational lensing by planets and gamma-ray bursts in the distant Universe.
Q: How significant do you think this result is?
A: CID-42 is the best candidate for a massive black hole that might have been kicked out of the center of a galaxy with a high speed. An interesting mechanism for obtaining such a kick involves the merger of two black holes into the kicked black hole.
Astronomers have used a large survey to test a prediction that close encounters between galaxies can trigger the rapid growth of supermassive black holes. Key to this work was Chandra's unique ability to pinpoint actively growing black holes through the X-rays they generate.
The researchers looked at 562 pairs of galaxies ranging in distances from about 3 billion to 8 billion light years from Earth. They found that the galaxies in the early stages of an encounter with another were more likely than isolated, or "lonelier" galaxies to have actively growing black holes in their cores.

Microsoft sits on the edge of a product launch that is plainly among the most important in the company's history. It comes at a time when the company's traditional hardware partners are facing ferocious market pressure from the commoditization of their products, and of course, the juggernaut known as the iPad.
As can be expected, the company's many cheerleaders and haters are out in full force. Pundits can and will pontificate on Windows 8's chances. However, what might be more useful is looking at Microsoft's other make or break moments. The upcoming launch is far from the first time that Redmond has fought with its back against a wall. A backward glance at these moments, and careful evaluation of them, may provide a better, ahem, window into the company's chances this Winter.
