Coherence Near Cache Best Practices
New on the Coherence blog is an article on best practices for near caching written by yours truly. This article went through several reviews by PM and engineering (both internal and field engineers) and is a good summary of our experiences with near caching. The key takeaway is to understand the near cache invalidation strategies and to explicitly configure the one best suited to the application needs.
See the full Near Cache Best Practices article on the official Oracle Coherence blog.
The Live Object Pattern – Coming to a SIG Near You
In spite of this blog being dormant for over a year, things have been busier than ever over in Coherence land! We just released version 3.7.1 which is packed with new features. Some of the highlights:
- REST support in the proxy. In addition to Java, C# and C++, now you can access the grid with any language that has a REST API.
- POF enhancements, including annotations and the ability to eliminate Java key classes (for pure C# and C++ applications)
- Query Explain Plan. If you've ever had a problem with a production application missing indexes (because you won't notice it in development and you may not notice it during testing) you'll be interested in this feature. It analyzes queries (filter based or CohQL) and indicates where indexes are used (and not used.)
We've been adding screencasts to the Coherence YouTube channel going over these features – in most cases the screencasts are delivered by the architect/developer responsible for the feature.
We also just wrapped up JavaOne and Oracle Open World a few weeks ago. I had the privilege of co-presenting the Live Object Pattern with Brian Oliver. The description and PDF can be downloaded from the JavaOne site.
If you didn't get to see the talk, you're in luck if you're in New York or London. Noah Arliss, who worked with Brian on the Live Objects concept and the abstract of the JavaOne talk, will be presenting on this topic at the New York SIG on October 28th and the London SIG on November 4th.
All of the SIGs this fall (including the Bay Area SIG on November 3rd) will cover the new features in Coherence 3.7.1. Come out and join us!
Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse now supports Coherence
The latest release of Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse (OEPE) now includes a Coherence Facet. This makes it convenient to quickly start up a Coherence project and launch nodes right in the IDE. Recently I took it for a test drive and took some notes to help users of Eclipse and Coherence get started.
Note that all images below are thumbnails; click on the images to expand.
You have the option of downloading Eclipse with the OEPE plugins pre-installed, but I already had a copy of Eclipse Helios 3.6; therefore I went for the plugin install. The plugin install is straight forward, similar to any other Eclipse plugin. These instructions are lifted straight from the doc:
- Select Help > Install New Software.
- Click Add to add a new update site.
- In the Add Repository dialog, enter the location as http://download.oracle.com/otn_software/oepe/helios, and then click OK.
- Select Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse, verify that all of the subcomponents are selected, and then click Next.
- Confirm information presented in the Install Details, and then click Finish.
Once the install is complete and you've restarted Eclipse, the next step is to install Coherence as a User Library. I've got the latest 3.6 bits from our source code repository, so I'll install that as a library. Note that the plugin also supports Coherence 3.5.2.
Now, let's create a new Java project. As part of the project creation, add Coherence as a project library.
After the project is created, we'll have to enable Facets to use the Coherence plugin. Bring up the project properties window and search for "Facets" in the search field.
Once Facets are enabled, select Oracle Coherence.
Upon selection, a link indicating that further configuration is required will appear. Click on the link. Select the "Oracle Coherence 3.6″ library. Note how it provides the option to generate configuration files. Let's leave all of the checkboxes selected.
Now we are ready to start a cache server. Select File | Run Configurations to bring up the Run Configurations dialog. First select "Oracle Coherence" under the list of run configurations. Next, select the "New" button on the upper left portion of the dialog to create a new run configuration.
Under the "Main" tab, enter com.tangosol.net.DefaultCacheServer as the main class. Of course you are free to create configurations with your own classes; however this example will focus on starting up a cache server.
Note the presence of a "Coherence" tab. This tab allows for operational configuration (items typically found in tangosol-coherence-override.xml) such as the cache configuration file name, multicast address configuration, management/JMX, and so on. Here I decided to leave all of the defaults as is.
After clicking on "Run", here's what I get:
We can see that the node started up and formed a cluster, but there are no services listed. This is because the OEPE plugin generated a cache configuration file that defaults to all caches being local. Next, let's examine the cache configuration file (located under src and add a distributed/partitioned cache to the configuration.
One of the nice features the plugin provides is pre-configured auto complete for Coherence configuration files via the DTD.
Here's the cache configuration file I used:
<!--?xml version="1.0"?-->
With the modified cache configuration, we now see the partitioned cache service start up:
I can see the Coherence plugin for OEPE being quite useful for Coherence developers on Eclipse not only for quickly starting up a Coherence project (since config files are generated) but also for enabling configuration validation out of the box.
Partitions, Backing Maps, and Services…Oh My!
Recently I was asked the following question:
What is the relationship between a partition, cache, and a backing map?
To answer this, first we should go through some definitions:
Cache: An object that maps keys to values. In Coherence, caches are referred to by name (thus the interface NamedCache.) Caches are also typically clustered, i.e. they can be accessed and modified from any member of a Coherence cluster.
Partition: A unit of transfer for a partitioned/distributed cache. (In Coherence terminology, partitioned and distributed are used interchangeably, with preference towards the former.)
Backing Map: Data structure used by a storage node to hold contents of a cache. For partitioned caches, this data is in binary (serialized) form.
I'll add one more term for completeness:
Service: Set of threads dedicated to handling requests; a cache service handles requests such as put, get, etc. The DistributedCache service is present on all members of the cluster that read/write/store cache data, even if the node is storage disabled.
Now let's put these concepts together to see how a clustered partitioned cache works.
First we'll start with a backing map. It is a straight forward data structure, usually an instance of LocalCache:
The contents of this map are managed by a partitioned cache service. In a typical thread dump, this would be the "DistributedCache" thread:
"DistributedCache" daemon prio=5 tid=101a91800 nid=0x118445000 in Object.wait() [118444000]
A single cache service can manage multiple backing maps. This is the default behavior if multiple services are not specified in the cache configuration file. (Multiple partitioned cache services are beyond the scope of this post; this topic will be addressed in a future posting.)
So how do partitions come into play? Each backing map is logically split into partitions:
This splitting is used for transferring data between storage enabled members. Here are log file snippets of data transfer between two nodes:
Member 1:
(thread=DistributedCache, member=1): 3> Transferring 128 out of 257 primary partitions to member 2 requesting 128
Member 2:
(thread=DistributedCache, member=2): Asking member 1 for 128 primary partitions
As members are added to the cluster, the partitions are split up amongst the members. Note that this includes backup copies of each partition.
As of Coherence 3.5, it is possible to configure backing maps to physically split partitions into their own respective backing maps. This configuration may be desirable for backing maps that are stored off heap (i.e. NIO direct memory or disk) as it will make data transfer more efficient.
Florida JUGs Next Week
I will be in central Florida next week presenting at the following user groups:
An Introduction to Data Grids for Database developers (GatorJUG June 23rd)
This talk will introduce the concept of data grids to developers that have experience with Java EE and relational databases such as Oracle. The programming model will be explored (including caching patterns and similarities to NoSQL) as well as the performance & scalability improvements a data grid offers.
From IDE to Data Center – What Every Developer Should Know About Deploying Distributed Systems to Production (Orlando JUG June 24th)
Taking a distributed system from development into a working production environment is a challenge that many developers take for granted. This talk will explore these challenges, especially scenarios that are not typically seen in a development setting.
I'm especially excited about the OJUG talk as I think it will cover many topics of interest to Developers and OPS guys. It is a set of general guidelines that came about from seeing dozens of Coherence applications in production. We will cover such things as:
- What to look for when using vmstat
- Must-have production level JVM settings/flags
- Developer Do's and Dont's
- Crash course on thread dumps and heap dumps
We will also be giving away a copy of Oracle Coherence 3.5 at each event! If you are coming please follow the links to the events above and RSVP (you need to be a member of CodeTown to sign up, but registration is free and painless.)

Hyman era begins at A&M
AD Eric Hyman officially introduced on eve of SEC induction
Published: Saturday, June 30, 2012
Updated: Wednesday, July 25, 2012 21:07
After several weeks of searching, Texas A&M officially announced former South Carolina athletic director Eric Hyman as the man to lead the Aggies in an identical role Saturday in the flag room of the Memorial Student Center.
"Shortly after athletic director Bill Byrne announced his intent to retire from Texas A&M, we initiated a national search process to secure the best individual we could find in the world to lead athletics at A&M," A&M president R. Bowen Loftin said. "I'm please to say today we have succeeded."
Hyman's past includes stints at South Carolina, TCU, Miami (Ohio) University and Virginia Military Institute. He built winners at each of his previous stops, including his most recent gig with the Gamecocks' in the toughest athletic conference in the nation – the SEC.
As AD at TCU from 1998-2005, Hyman led the Horned Frogs to 32 conference titles and began a $30 million project to renovate facilities across the board. The school would win six bowl games, earn back-to-back regional appearances in baseball for the first time in its history and have the women's basketball team attend five straight NCAA tournaments.
At South Carolina, Hyman found even more success. A builder of strong athletic foundations, a $200 million master plan for facilities was created under his tenure and is still in progress. Most notably, Hyman has overseen two baseball national championships and the winningest football team in school history. In the 2011-12 season alone, the Gamecocks won the women's soccer regular season SEC title, had the women's basketball team advance to the Sweet 16, won a record 11 games in football and saw almost all of their programs advance to the post-season.
Hyman said it was tough for him to leave a successful program he had invested energy to build, but expressed his pleasure in taking on his new role at A&M.
"Friday was a sad day. I left a great school and a wonderful athletic department with a lot of great people. It was tough to say goodbye to the coaches," Hyman said. "But with that said, I'm truly excited to be here. I'm looking forward to helping Texas A&M as we go forward in athletics."
Making a move from a school already entrenched in the SEC, Hyman said there are pros and cons to A&M's move to its new conference.
"Going into the SEC is good news, bad news. The good news is, it's the best league in the country," Hyman said. "The bad news is, it's the best league in the country…every time you compete, it's going to be a 12-round boxing match. It's ferociously competitive."
Still, Hyman said he was excited to be leading A&M into the new conference. Jason Cook, A&M vice president of marketing and communications, said the SEC was a major draw for all candidates applying for the athletic director position.
"With Texas A&M's move to the SEC, that enabled us to attract a very wide and deep pool of candidates," Cook said. "Just like coaches or student athletes, athletic directors want to compete at the highest levels, and that's in the SEC."

15801 San Pedro Ave, San Antonio, TX | Directions 7823229.586515 -98.475445
Neighborhoods: Northeast San Antonio, Hill Country Village
Great Family Place – This is place is a lot of fun to eat at. The food is good and the atmosphere is great. They have a sandbox for the kids and you can relax while they hang out.
However after you get your meal it's hard to get anything else out of the staff. People do not watch their kids and they can sometimes run wild.
But over all, a great family place.
GREAT – Willies is a very neat little restaraunt. Chips and queso is very good!! Great service and wonderful food!
Best Food & Service in San Antonio – We've been eating here since we came to San Antonio almost four years ago. The food is excellent and the service is OUTSTANDING! Tried most of the items on the menu and they all taste great. The best Tortilla soup in San Antonio. The Red Beans and Rice are fabulous.
Great for the kids! – If you don't mind a little sand, then Willie's is a great place for the family to go for some good eats! It gets a little crowded, but that's to be expected of good restuarants.
The BEST Crawfish in SA – After searching for a good place to get 2 lbs of crawfish, I finally found a great place to go during the season. If you like crawfish, you can definitely tell the difference from fresh and frozen. The mudbugs at Willies are so fresh that none of the tails stick to the shell, I believe it's because they order them "live". These critters were probably swimming around the same morning that you have decided to dine on them. The butter sauce that's served with them for dipping is also excellent! I'm still looking for a place that compares but have found none.
Pros- Great beer selection
Cons- A little crowded.
For parents who want to dine out but can't find a sitter, this burger joint has fun for the kids. – The Scene
It might seem hectic to the uninitiated, but Willies gives parents the chance to unwind at a restaurant and not worry that their kids are being noisy--because all of the kids are noisy. Don't be mistaken, this is not a children's theme restaurant decked with flashing lights and actors in plush animal costumes. Video games, an outdoor sand box and a big-screen TV will keep the little ones busy while their parents enjoy a sloppy burger and a beer or margarita.
The Food
The Chili Willie, a chili cheeseburger, is huge, while the Chicken Willie (a grilled chicken sandwich) is tender and smothered in mayonnaise and mustard. Be sure to try the chips and queso for an appetizer. The tortilla chips are light, crispy and not too greasy.
Great Patio – Willie's patio has something for everyone! A sandbox for the kids, great food, beer and margaritas, and a misting system to keep cool! I probably eat at Willie's more than all other restaurants in S.A. combined, I love it!
They've got Chicken! – One of the best places to get a grilled chicken sandwich.. Willie's does a mean one. I have had nothing but the best food there and the ambiance is truly Texan!

So glad Nian won. Don't know how annoyed I would've been if Robsten somehow did. Nian are actually happy and faithful to each other, regardless of age difference, and are adorable and romantic without being over the top. Robsten on the other hand is falling apart at the seams, which were never really sewn back together properly in the first place.

With its Avid lab, Dordt has one of the premiere post-production houses in a multi-state region. Avid is the industry standard for cutting and editing film and video; 90 percent of what you watch on TV and in theatres is cut on Avid.
Instead of having each Avid editing system locked to one computer and hard drive, Dordt's Avid editing stations are all tied into an Avid LANshare, with 32 TB of storage space, providing the ultimate in collaborative filmmaking. For example, if a team shoots 15 hours of raw footage, the video is saved on the LANshare, and each team member on each Avid editing system can draw from the same footage and all work on the same project at the same time. That's how Hollywood does it, and that's how you'll learn at Dordt, unlike at most major colleges and universities.
In addition, a tech-enabled instructor's podium is linked to ceiling-mounted HD projectors with a 16-foot screen and 7:1 surround sound, allowing students seated at either PC or Mac workstations to watch the instructor in action. The Adobe suite of products, which allow for animation, graphic design, professional DVD production and web design, give students complete control of every aspect of media production..

So the thing these events all have in common is "speed." To stay in practice..photograhers need to shoot daily. Get that camera in your hand and find things to take pictures of so you're working on panning, quick clicks, composition. One huge suggestion...shoot pictures of birds. I take pictures of them daily for practice. It helps you be "quick on the trigger" and get used to playing with your camera settings quickly. THEN..when it's time to shoot photos at the actual hockey game, the snowmobile race..You. Are. Ready. Plus..remember batteries

I totally made this off the cuff a couple weeks ago, have become officially addicted and wanted to share!
B4L Gyro Wrap:
Cook 4oz 99% white meat ground turkey with a little olive oil, salt, pepper, and Moroccan or Greek seasoning.
Meanwhile, take a 9" whole wheat or whole grain tortilla and spread with 1 ounce of plain nonfat Greek yogurt. Then layer with thin-sliced raw fresh cucumber.
Add the ground turkey, then top with fresh lettuce and tomato. Wrap it up and enjoy!
Nutrition info: 324 calories; 32g carbs (though may change depending on the tortilla); 36g protein; 5g fat; 3g sugars
Good stuff!
OMG! Didn't want to eat what I planned for dinner, saw this and immediately made it! I had a thawed chicken breast in the fridge so I sliced that up and cooked it. I didn't have any Greek seasoning so I searched Greek seasoning online and found directions to make my own. This was so stinking delicious and totally hit the spot! Thanks for sharing this!
This sounds delicious. Thanks for sharing. I will be making these next week!
"The only person you should try to be better than, is the person you were yesterday!"
This sounds amazing! I am going to make these for next week!
I'm half Greek so I can tell you that if you chop (or use a garlic press) raw garlic into the Greek yogurt & add cucumbers to that (you have to press some of the water out of them or it gets too runny, that is basic tzatziki sauce which is traditionally used on a Gyro anwyay! Totally clean!

"I believe learning a language is a fundamental component of who we are and how we understand the world. In the classroom, I aim to provide my students with life skills, inspire them to study in other countries, challenge their expectations and prejudices, and encourage them to cultivate understanding and respect for others. I am intrigued especially by the complexity of narrative that conveys not only 'facts' or emotion, but also an underlying ideology."
Adriana is of Ecuadorian and Colombian heritage. She completed her BA in Latin American Studies and Literature at American University and her MA in Hispanic Studies at the University of Virginia. Currently, she is working on completing her Ph.D. at the University of Virginia. In 2009 and 2010, she was administrator and instructor for the UVa Program in Peru. She joined the Language and Literature Department at EMU in 2012 and teaches Spanish language, literature, and film.
Adriana's primary research interests are Twentieth Century Literature and Film, Andean Literature and Culture, Trauma and Resilience Narratives, and Hispanic American Women writers. Her dissertation in progress, "From Manchay Tiempo to 'Truth': Cultural Trauma and Resilience in Contemporary Peruvian Narrative," tracks the development of cultural production in post-conflict Peru.

Mother's Day, my birthday (40!), my anniversary…they're all coming up soon. And what do I want, besides an 8th day in the week strictly for relaxing? There's one thing I covet above all others: some snuggly muslin from aden + anais.
I fell head over heels in love with aden + anais products when I got the bamboo swaddle blankets I put on my baby registry. I had heard such great things, and boy did they ever live up to the hype! They're softer than soft and such a generous size for really good swaddling. We got a few of the Classic Muslin Swaddle Blankets, too, and they also became fast favorites.
You may be wondering what the big deal is about muslin. Here it is, from the experts themselves:
"Muslin is a finely-woven breathable fabric believed to have originated in Bangladesh during the Middle Ages. Its delicate yet durable weave makes the fabric stretchy and, therefore, ideal for swaddling, as the natural "give" allows the blanket to be tucked snuggly around a baby without being overly restrictive.
The lightweight muslin also permits air to circulate around the baby's body, while still providing comfort and warmth without the worry that the baby may overheat in moderate weather. Cotton muslin is also a workhorse fabric, in that wraps woven from this natural fiber stands up to repeated washings only becoming softer — and better — with age."

Novi >Food & Dining >
Catering >Red Hot & Blue Bbq
25750 Novi Rd, Novi, MI | Directions 4837542.477224 -83.474248
Memphis-style barbecue with a blues soundtrack sweeps the nation. – In Short
Founded in Tennessee, this barbecue chain is the blues version of a big-city Hard Rock Cafe. Walls are lined with posters and memorabilia of musicians like Bessie Smith and Stevie Ray Vaughan. Ribs are the specialty of the house and come dry, wet or sweet. Pulled pork and fried catfish are complemented by the deep-fried onion ring loaf.
Great 'Blues' Food. Fun place, great music – If BBQ is a favorite, you'll like Red Hot & Blue! My wife and I had the combo rib platter, dry rubbed, hot, and sweet all on one platter. It's all good. The pulled pork sandwich is always excellent. Located a little south of Grand River Ave., on Novi rd. It's nice because it's not with all the other restaurants, so it seems secretive to those who know where it is. I have had short waits to eat, and they have a nice bar. It's the kind of place that gets loud and fun. The sodas comes in small pitchers, about 40 oz. so you'll never be bothered by having to get constant refills. Lots of choices of southern sides to add to your entree. You won't leave hungry. Good place to unwind, with fun atmosphere and music. $$
Some great barbeque here...for a chain. Spotty customer service (sometimes great/sometimes not) – RIBS: Ribs here come as Wet, Dry, or Sweet. Wet ribs are just plain ribs that are sauced before being brought to your table. They are usually ok although the last time I went the fat was not rendered all the way off and they were less than ok. Dry ribs are wonderful, super-smoky ribs, caked in enough nasty dry rub to choke a horse. The sweet ribs are my favorite. The sweet sauce is cooked into them, caramelizing the sugars and giving some hellacious burnt ends that never have failed to please me in a half-dozen visits.
BRISKET: Brisket has a nice smoky flavor and is lightly seasoned. It has an excellent, homemade mouthfeel and b1te to it, and generally should please.
PORK: Pulled pork is smoky, sauced by the kitchen (grrrrr!) and made up of well-cleaned chunks.
Red Hot and Blue also serves a nice, smoky, pulled chicken which is meticulously cleaned. If we were into this sort of thing, wed like it.
Sauces are 4. Sufferin Sweet is thick, not THAT sweet, and a bit nondescript. Its much better baked onto the ribs than actually placed on food, cold. Mojo Mild is a nice sauce that defies easy description. Would it help to say its tomato-based? Red? Thickish? H00chie Coochie is a hot, hot, hot vinegary sauce that would make any North Carolina mountain man happy. Carolina Style Voodoo Child is merely hot and vinegary like NC sauce should be.
You can get any one of 14 sides here. Beans were canned-tasting jobbies with some chopped meat on top (a nice touch, but it couldnt fool us into actually eating them). Fries are quite good. Miss the bland seasoned rice.
If you must eat at a chain, you can do pretty well here. I give this place a B+ (although the sweet ribs are a solid A-). (We tend to index our grades to A+ joints like The Salt Lick outside of Austin Texas).
Review by: THE MICHIGAN BARBEQUE SOCIETY
Definately Try It! – I'm writing this after my second visit. On the first I was disappointed with the ribs, but the catfish was excellent (a rare thing in the north) and the service was friendly, prompt and attentative. The atmosphere was wonderful and the background music inspiring. On the second visit I tried the ribs again and was still disappointed, BUT the sausage link was OUTSTANDING (we ordered it as an appetizer then added it to our main dish). The server happened to be Suzi - the same one from my first visit and she remembered me - something rare even in places I frequent. Overall this is my favorite resturant in Novi and I highly reccomend it
Great barbi - skip the drinks – Terrific barbeque - what they neglect to tell you is that you can split one order into all 3 types of barbeque --wet, dry,& sweet. If you order a 1/4 rack - you can still try all 3 kinds.
The sides are almost better than the ribs. Some of the best fries I ever tasted. The baked yams are really yunny with lots of brown sugar and butter.
The catfish is OK - but not my favorite. The special drinks are full of flavor - but little alcohol.

Privacy International defends the right to privacy across the world, and fights surveillance and other intrusions into private life by governments and corporations. Read more »
On Friday, we wrote to 140 companies around the world that are known to be selling surveillance technology, to ask them a series of questions. We wanted to know whether or not companies conducted human rights due diligence when dealing with foreign companies or governments, how many of them were doing business or seeking to do business with 'Not Free' countries (as categorised by Freedom House's latest report), and whether any of them would be interested in meeting with us to discuss their human rights policies.
When we first compiled the 'Big Brother Incorporated' list in partnership with the Bureau of Investigative Journalism back in November, we'd remarked on the significant number of companies based in the United States and the United Kingdom. However, it was only when we started stacking up the envelopes to take to the post office that we realized just how disproportionately Britain was represented.
There were 21 British companies on our list – as many as the Chinese, Russian, Canadian, Indian and Israeli companies combined. The US topped the list with 48 companies, meaning that over a third of the companies we contacted were American, and Germany took third place with 12 companies. There were very few companies based in countries where the use of surveillance technology has raised human rights concerns, like Egypt, Colombia and the UAE.
The statistics go some way to confirming our suspicions about how the international surveillance trade works - repressive regimes tend to buy equipment and software from the US and from certain European countries, where the industry is more sophisticated and prolific, rather than manufacturing it domestically. This means that any action taken by the US, UK or German governments to control exports of surveillance technology would have a significant impact in terms of limiting the kinds of equipment repressive regimes would be able to get their hands on.
However, exports from the UK are currently almost completely unregulated. This means that the task of deciding whether or not a foreign body should be allowed to purchase potentially lethal surveillance technologies is left entirely up to the companies. The Second Principle of the United Nations Global Compact (a UN initiative to encourage businesses to adopt socially responsible policies) states that businesses should ensure that they are not complicit in human rights abuses and have human rights policies in place, but there is no legal obligation to do so. We are campaigning for changes to export regimes in the UK and Europe, but in the meantime we need to find out what actions are being taken at the corporate level to prevent surveillance technologies falling into the wrong hands. We await responses from the companies...

Shrimp Remoulade Slaw
Author Notes: I love remoulade sauce with shrimp, crab cakes, oysters and even fish. Thought this time I'd turn shrimp remoulade into a salad. - inpatskitchen
Makes 4 healthy servings
- 1 cup homemade mayo or a good quality commercial one
- 1 stalk celery, finely diced
- 2 green onions, finely sliced
- 1 heaping tablespoon Creole mustard (if you don't have Creole, Dijon will work)
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon ketchup
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 3 good shakes (or more if you want it a little spicy) hot sauce (I used Cholula)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Combine all ingredients and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
For the slaw
- 1 pound medium peeled and deveined shrimp, thawed if frozen ( I used 36-40s)
- 1/2 lemon
- 5 cups shredded common cabbage
- 1/2 cup chopped parsley
- The remoulade
- Salt and pepper for seasoning
- Bring about 3 quarts of water along with the 1/2 lemon to a rolling boil. Add the shrimp, put a lid on the pot, turn the heat off and let the shrimp sit for about 2 minutes. Drain the shrimp in a colander, and rinse the shrimp quickly in cold, cold water to cool.
- Once the shrimp has cooled combine it with the shredded cabbage, remoulade sauce and chopped parsley. Season to taste with salt and pepper and chill before serving.

When Rudyard Kipling first published his fables about how the camel got his hump and the rhinoceros his wrinkly folds of skin, he explained that they would lull his daughter to sleep only if they were always told "just so," with no new variations. The "Just So Stories" have become a byword for seductively simple myths, though one of Kipling's turns out to be half true.
The Leopard and the Ethiopian were hungry, the story goes, because the Giraffe and the Zebra had moved to a dense forest and were impossible to catch. So the Ethiopian changed his skin to a blackish brown, which allowed him to creep up on them. He also used his inky fingers to make spots on the Leopard's coat, so that his friend could hunt stealthily, too—which now seems to be about right, minus the Ethiopian. A recent article in a biology journal approvingly quotes Kipling on the places "full of trees and bushes and stripy, speckly, patchy-blatchy shadows" where cats have patterned coats. The study matched the coloring of thirty-five species to their habitats and habits, which, together with other clues, is hard evidence that cats' flank patterns mostly evolved through natural selection as camouflage. There are some puzzles—cheetahs have spots, though they prefer open hunting grounds—but that's to be expected, since the footsteps of evolution can be as hard to retrace as those of a speckly leopard in the forest.
The idea of natural selection itself began as a just-so story, more than two millennia before Darwin. Darwin belatedly learned this when, a few years after the publication of "On the Origin of Species," in 1859, a town clerk in Surrey sent him some lines of Aristotle, reporting an apparently crazy tale from Empedocles. According to Empedocles, most of the parts of animals had originally been thrown together at random: "Here sprang up many faces without necks, arms wandered without shoulders . . . and eyes strayed alone, in need of foreheads." Yet whenever a set of parts turned out to be useful the creatures that were lucky enough to have them "survived, being organised spontaneously in a fitting way, whereas those which grew otherwise perished." In later editions of "Origin," Darwin added a footnote about the tale, remarking, "We here see the principle of natural selection shadowed forth."
Today's biologists tend to be cautious about labelling any trait an evolutionary adaptation—that is, one that spread through a population because it provided a reproductive advantage. It's a concept that is easily abused, and often "invoked to resolve problems that do not exist," the late George Williams, an influential evolutionary biologist, warned. When it comes to studying ourselves, though, such admonitions are hard to heed. So strong is the temptation to explain our minds by evolutionary "Just So Stories," Stephen Jay Gould argued in 1978, that a lack of hard evidence for them is frequently overlooked (his may well have been the first pejorative use of Kipling's term). Gould, a Harvard paleontologist and a popular-science writer, who died in 2002, was taking aim mainly at the rising ambitions of sociobiology. He had no argument with its work on bees, wasps, and ants, he said. But linking the behavior of humans to their evolutionary past was fraught with perils, not least because of the difficulty of disentangling culture and biology. Gould saw no prospect that sociobiology would achieve its grandest aim: a "reduction" of the human sciences to Darwinian theory.
This was no straw man. The previous year, Robert Trivers, a founder of the discipline, told Time that, "sooner or later, political science, law, economics, psychology, psychiatry, and anthropology will all be branches of sociobiology." The sociobiologists believed that the concept of natural selection was a key that would unlock all the sciences of man, by revealing the evolutionary origins of behavior.
The dream has not died. "Homo Mysterious: Evolutionary Puzzles of Human Nature" (Oxford), a new book by David Barash, a professor of psychology and biology at the University of Washington, Seattle, inadvertently illustrates how just-so stories about humanity remain strikingly oversold. As Barash works through the common evolutionary speculations about our sexual behavior, mental abilities, religion, and art, he shows how far we still are from knowing how to talk about the evolution of the mind.
Evolutionary psychologists are not as imperialist in their ambitions as their sociobiologist forebears of the nineteen-seventies, but they tend to be no less hubristic in their claims. An evolutionary perspective "has profound implications for applied disciplines such as law, medicine, business and education," Douglas Kenrick, of Arizona State University, writes in his recent book "Sex, Murder and the Meaning of Life." The latest edition of a leading textbook, "Evolutionary Psychology: The New Science of the Mind," by David Buss, of the University of Texas at Austin, announces that an evolutionary approach can integrate the disparate branches of psychology, and is "beginning to transform" the study of the arts, religion, economics, and sociology.
There are plenty of factions in this newish science of the mind. The most influential sprang up in the nineteen-eighties at the University of California, Santa Barbara, was popularized in books by Steven Pinker and others in the nineteen-nineties, and has largely won over science reporters. It focusses on the challenges our ancestors faced when they were hunter-gatherers on the African savanna in the Pleistocene era (between approximately 1.7 million and ten thousand years ago), and it has a snappy slogan: "Our modern skulls house a Stone Age mind." This mind is regarded as a set of software modules that were written by natural selection and now constitute a universal human nature. We are, in short, all running apps from Fred Flintstone's not-very-smartphone. Work out what those apps are—so the theory goes—and you will see what the mind was designed to do.

The sushi rolls tasted old and stale to me. Perhaps one of the worst sushi restaurants I've ever eaten at. There were few people there so maybe the word is out.
The service was also poor and the wait staff was unfriendly.
Best sushi in South Florida!!!! – This place has THE BEST sushi around. I've been all over the area and to plenty of the popular places in South Beach and Ft. Lauderdale, like Shoji, Samba, Siam, Shizen, Pop rock, Tatu, RA, etc. and this place embarasses them. It's even better than Sushi Ray in Boca. It's a tiny family place (Yuji is the greatest) with fantastic quality and innovative dishes. There are a TON of rolls and other traditional Japanese dishes (skip the miso soup, though). We've been going for years and years, and we've never had better sushi down here. Most other food in Coral Springs is garbage, but this place is superb.

Drama desk nominee Lauren Cregor Devine is composer-lyricist for the off-Broadway company Waterwell and is represented by the song "Bite Your Teeth," from her new musical LA GRANDE NOTTE. Kathryn Hathaway and Benjamin Velez are presenting a song from their new musical, AFTERLAND.
