Problems with using the TXBridge to coordinate 2 Stateless Session Beans using different XA DataSourcesJohn Francis Sep 24, 2013 11:33 AM
I am using JBoss AS 7.1.1.Final (standalone, xts configured), Java 1.7 and Windows 7 x64. I am running up JBoss from Eclipse.
SQLServer version: Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 (SP1) - 10.50.2500.0 (X64) Jun 17 2011 00:54:03 Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation Enterprise Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 6.1 <X64> (Build 7601: Service Pack 1)
JDBC Driver Microsfts version 4 driver: download sqljdbc_4.0.2206.100_enu.exe
The attached zip contains 8 Eclipse/Maven projects.
These build 2 Enterprise Apps JBTest4EAR and JBTest5EAR which contain 1 Stateless Session bean each, SSB4 and SSB5 respectively.
These SSB's each have a reference to a diffrent XADatasource which they use to get a JDBC connection to a database (unfortunately this is SQLServer2008R2 which is what I'm working with, and I have run out of time to try another database server)
Each bean uses a different database instance but for the test both have identical schemas, just as they have identical functionality.
There are 2 test projects
1/ JBTestClientFandF (FourAndFive ) is a straightforward standalone junit test case which runs outside of jboss (it could run as a command line app under maven)
This uses the standard JBoss JNDI lookup to get hold of 2 bean references 1 to each of SSB4 and SSB5.
It then grabs a UserTransaction to control invocations of the SSBs and tests that the commits and rollbacks work as expected even though the transaction begin/commit/rollback spans both beans and 2 XA connections.
This junit test succeeds without any problems. The trace StandaloneTestClient.log shows the output.
2/ JBTestWebFandF contains a webapp which consists of a servlet whose doPost method invokes SSB4 and SSB5 using their WebService interfaces and the HandlerChains necessary for the txbridge.
The sequence of calls is the same as that carried out by the JUnit test in JBTestClientFandF.
If I run this it fails with the following error ( the full stack trace is attached in server.log )

...snip! ...
It fails when the seond bean (SSB5) tries to connect to the database, the first bean (SSB4) having succeeded and returned control to the servlet.
If i run the test with both service references pointing to an SSB4 service instance it works fine ( though it moans about the incorrect results because it is now using the same database instance ).
So my question is
1) If this works when I invoke the SSBs as SSBs but not as a WebService is this a bug in the TXBridge? Or What am I doing wrong ? Or is this some weakness in the interaction between JBoss and SQLServer?
P.S. I have also included the standalone-xts.xml config I am using to show how the database is setup. Should anyone have any SQLServer 2008 servers setup for XA, the JBTestClientFandF will create the schema in the databases.
The following may prove useful;
The instructions on setting up SQLServer for XA transactions http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa342335(v=sql.105).aspx have the following comments which may be relevant (though the hotfix indicated is described as being for Windows 2003)
The following additional guidelines apply to tightly coupled transactions:
- When you use XA transactions together with Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MS DTC), you may notice that the current version of MS DTC does not support tightly coupled XA branch behavior. For example, MS DTC has a one-to-one mapping between an XA branch transaction ID (XID) and an MS DTC transaction ID and the work that is performed by loosely coupled XA branches is isolated from one another.The hotfix provided at MSDTC and Tightly Coupled Transactions enables the support for tightly coupled XA branches where multiple XA branches with same global transaction ID (GTRID) are mapped to a single MS DTC transaction ID. This support enables multiple tightly coupled XA branches to see one another's changes in the resource manager, such as SQL Server.
- A SSTRANSTIGHTLYCPLD flag allows the applications to use the tightly coupled XA transactions, which have different XA branch transaction IDs (XIDs) but have the same global transaction ID (GTRID). In order to use that feature, you must set the SSTRANSTIGHTLYCPLD on the flags parameter of the XAResource.start method:
xaRes.start(xid, SQLServerXAResource.SSTRANSTIGHTLYCPLD);
I would go further, but this is all the time I can spend on this for now.
Anyone? Is this the wrong forum to be discussing this? No one any clues?

This seems like quite a complex scenario. Can you distill the problem to more simple scenario that reproduces the problem? This will make it a lot easier for us to help you here. It sounds like you have a scenario similar to [1] maybe you could use that as a basis of your example. Also, if you can use a more easily available/installable database then that would help too. I wouldn't know where to begin with installing MSSQL on my Mac ;-)
However, I do have some ideas what might be happening. Firstly can you tell me what you mean by "Each bean uses a different database instance"? Do you mean they each uses a different database on the *same* physical database server. Or do you mean that they each use a different physical database server?
My initial concern is that we are hitting a "diamond" problem, which is documented in the TXBridge documentation. I would provide you with a link, but the Narayana community pages have broken links at the moment. We are currently working on the issue. When it's fixed, go here [2] and select the documentation menu, followed by "4.17.4" and then select the TXBridge docs. The part of potential interest is in the "Loops and Diamonds" section.

different database on the *same* physical database server; Two database instances accessed via one sqlserver process on one (local) box. The 2 urls in the example are as follows;
>>with installing MSSQL on my Mac ;-)
Yes, sorry. I will endeavour to try it out on another db server type, its just that SQLServer is the current project target. I'll also try an SQLServer example with 2 different physical servers, though that might be even more difficult to get functioning at all.

Updated: March 1, 2013 6:47AM
To fight ovarian cancer, the Ovarian Cancer Symptom Awareness Organization is hoping that veterinarians and pets just might save the lives of their owners.
On Jan. 25, a new Veterinary Outreach Program was launched at the Gateway Veterinary Clinic in St. Charles and owner Dr. Kurt Klepitsch became the first member of the program, a joint effort that partners the OCSA with the Illinois State Veterinary Medical Association.
According to Peter Weber, executive director of the ISVMA, many veterinarians report that pet owners who talk with them about their pet's health issues are often more forthcoming about their own health problems. Klepitsch, 49, confirmed pet owners frequently talk about health issues beyond those related to their animal.
"I've been here since 1990, and over the course of time, you develop personal relationships with a lot of owners, and they tell you a lot of things about themselves and vice-versa," Klepitsch said. "There is a lot of give and take, and I'd say conversations about someone's health or that of a child or relative are at least a weekly thing."
Klepitsch noted that a lot more women are getting involved in veterinary medicine, which might help female pet owners open up more about health issues.
"I never envisioned there being something like this today, but hopefully a lot of people will join this program and help get the message out," he said. "My feeling is that this has to be a subtle thing. Vets are very busy folks, but if we hear things, we want people to know where they can get more help, and if we just reach some of the people, that will be a positive thing. I hope this program will have some legs."
About 30 people gathered in the Gateway waiting room as a number of officials connected with the program spoke. A representative from Gov. Pat Quinn's office, Dr. Brenda Jones, who also serves as the deputy director for the Illinois Department of Health's office of women's health, offered support for the program.
"We want to be part of this movement that helps women and makes them aware of this disease, and we support this initiative that gives an opportunity for education for women in the state of Illinois," Jones said.
Another woman who expressed hope for the program was Vallie Szymanski of St. Charles, who serves as the executive director of OCSA and has been a client of Dr. Klepitsch for 20 years. She said Klepitsch has taken care of her cats and dogs and that she has had many conversations about human health issues with him during that time.
"I frequently have talked with Dr. Klepitsch about a number of issues after he was done examining one of my pets so as to not interrupt him, and while he never pretended to be a medical doctor, he'd often suggest that I have certain things checked out," Szymanski said.
"My father was a vet and lived in a rural area where there aren't a lot of doctors all the time, and vets are often sought out for medical advice. But here, they can get help."
Peter Weber, executive director of the Illinois State Veterinary Medical Association, was on hand Friday and noted that "symptom awareness" was an important element in addressing ovarian cancer and promised that a ground swell of support for the VOP program already was building.
"I'm comfortable that there will be thousands in the network within the first year," Weber said.
"There are other doctors already reaching out to us hoping to replicate what we're doing here today throughout the state, as well as corporations that have been contacting us offering financial support."
A number of those in attendance admitted their lives had been touched by ovarian cancer, including Dr. W. Ron DeHaven, chief executive officer of the American Veterinary Medical Association.
"My mother died of ovarian cancer, and this is an exciting program that we feel is quite natural given that human health and animal health are inseparable and are tied together," he said.

text: Marigold, also known as calendula or pot marigold, was a popular ingredient throughout medieval and renaissance Europe. In Holland, according to Gerard's "Herbal", "no broths are made well without dried marigolds." Marigold gives color and a piquant touch to cheese, soups and stews. In fact, the petals were used to color cheese until annatto was introduced from America. The presence of marigold not only gives a slightly floral hint that complements the flavor of the cheese, but also creates a distinctive presentation with the creamy white color of the cheese sprinkled with orange and yellow flecks of petals. A must-try for any lover of Dorothea or Van Dijk.

Eaglecrest opens early for the 2011-2012 ski season
Published: 11/30/2011 21:00:00
Eaglecrest opened early last weekend to a full mountain with the most snow of any ski area in the country.
VIDEO: Heavy snowfall in November allowed the Eaglecrest Ski Area to open earlier than expected (Image: Mikko Wilson / KATH-TV)
Eaglecrest opening Saturday December 18th
Eaglecrest Ski Area prepares for winter with new chairlift
Eaglecrest improvements add capacity and green energy
According to Eaglecrest General Manager Matt Lillard, this is one of the strongest openings the area has had in a few years: "First weekend; first day of the first weekend has been a fantastic turn out. I think it'll be one of the better opening weekends we've had in a long time. A November opening, which we haven't had in a while; so all the new snow, lots of excited skiers and riders. The mountain operations team has been out grooming and packing the snow for the better part of a week and a half. The groomed runs are skiing out fantastic; the off piste powder runs couldn't be much better for late November. And we've even got our Porcupine beginner area open, so the little skiers and riders are coming out and learning how to ski; getting some runs underneath them before they head up on the big mountain."
The younger skiers and riders aren't the only ones experiencing Eaglecrest for the first time; this is Matt's first season as general manager of the ski area where he oversees a staff of around a hundred and thirty. He replaced Kirk Duncan who left Eaglecrest for the city public works department this past summer.
"I've always wanted to head west and north of where I was out on the east coast in Vermont, and I saw this opportunity. And I spoke about it with my wife, and did as much research as I could. It seems like a great community, focused on the outdoors and I really wanted to come give it a try" said Lillard. "I love Juneau so far. I've been here for a month, and I've seen windy and rainy, a power outage the first week here, to just oodles and oodles of snow. So I'm a much bigger fan of snow, and there's been plenty of it" he added.
The parking lot was as full as the busiest best-of-the-season days, as hundreds flocked to the combination of a new season and lots of new snow.
Friends Nick & Edwin where enjoying the slopes on the first day of the season. Nick said the snow conditions made for good skiing: "It's a little heavy, a little crusty; but it's still pretty nice; fun." Edwin added that they ride all over the mountain "anywhere we can; we find the biggest jumps and just go on them."
James Dawson has been skiing in Eaglecrest since he was two; and calls the mountain his 3rd home. "I've got big fat skies this year, and we've got lots of snow this year, and it's going to be phenomenal" he said. "I'm looking to get a lot of days on the mountain this year."

Celtics Morning Joe: Humprhies wants to remain a Celtic
|Posted by shawn cassidy on September 14, 2013 at 5:00 AM
It sounds to me that Humprhies really wants one more big contract. I've been up and down on him, and long term I don't want him for whatever he wants to get paid. He's worth 5 million a year in my book,unless he can become a 20 and 10 guy this season.
"This is the earliest he's ever reported to camp, so he's going to have about three good weeks of work before training camp starts," Ketroser said. "He wants to get acclimated, he wants to get to know everyone, he wants to really prove to everyone, 'Look, I'm here, I'm devoted, I'm ready to rock and roll.' That's where his head's at. He's looking to have a good year and would love to sign a three- or four-year deal and stay in Boston, and be part of them turning around."
I still believe he's a one year rental. Unless he's willing to play for less. I want to give him a chance, but I don't see him as the future. Unless he gets a new lease on life, and basketball. So what about the other least popular Celtic? Crawford wants to lead.
CRAWFORD THE LEADER!? Jordan Crawford, whose maturity has been questioned at times during his NBA career, suggested Friday that he's trying to be a leader on a young Celtics team.
"Just trying to build the team, we've got a lot of young guys," said Crawford. "I'm going into my fourth year, I'm actually kinda getting looked upon to lead, you know, in the weight room. Just trying to lead everybody, show them the right way to do it."
Pressed on his leadership qualities, Crawford added, "I kinda got a strong personality, so people kinda gravitate towards me in locker rooms and on the court, so it's my job to lead them in the right direction."
Crawford, who drew headlines last season for a head-shaking sock choice and for barking at Carmelo Anthony after a postseason win in New York, arrived in Boston early this offseason and hopes that extra time will help a young team bond.
"[There's] a lot of nice guys that like each other, they all want to be around to build chemistry," said Crawford. "It's important to be here early now so that, when the preseason starts, we'll be a little ahead of the game."
These guys are putting in the work for Boston right now, I'll give them that.

i think that Humphries and Wallace could be important guys for us.
Yeah, when it comes to a trade I believe. But I get what your saying.

"My husband and I ordered these for our son's memorial. They were just beautiful. We wanted something guests could take with them so their could remember our sweet boy. Guests loved them and said they would cherish them for years to come. Our one month old son suddenly passed away and we appreciated being able to have these done so quickly. I liked that we were able to add a picture on the back of the card as well and we also added a sweet note. We included his date of birth as well as the day of his passing. I saw somewhere the phrase "Grew his angel wings" to describe the date of his passing. I thought it was very sweet. (Born March 18, 2013 - Grew his angel wings April 25, 2013) This was a beautiful way to share our precious son with those who didn't get a chance to meet him."
"I needed a card to announce my fathers passing to out of state residents. This was just what I needed. The card is very high quality, photos turned out wonderful. The entire process was easy and delivered on time. I could not be happier with the quality and ease of purchase. Will buy again from this site, very happy I made this purchase."
"I wanted something different to announce the passing of my mother in law, I liked the quality and ease of editing of this product. everyone who recieved them was very pleased with the card to keep as a reminder of her life and passing. I would have liked to be able to print a short eulogy on the backside of the card, but otherwise it turned out very well."

Floyd Mayweather Jr News
Mayweather Books First Fight of 2014, Will Face Maidana on May 3
It will have been just less than eight months by the time 37-year-old Floyd Mayweather Jr. steps back into the ring in spring 2014 for his 46th professional fight and first against 30-year-old Marcos Maidana. The 147-pound unification bout is officially scheduled for May 3, and while it's expected to take place at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, there is still a slight chance Brooklyn's Barclays Center could ultimately host the fight. Regardless of the location, the clash is likely to be another stunning display of athleticism at its finest, as both competitors will be equipped with plenty of momentum heading into the bout.
Mayweather of course still boasts an undefeated mark of 45-0, comprised of 26 knockouts and 19 decisions, the most recent of which came back in September when he handed Saul "Canelo" Alvarez the first loss of his career. Maidana, meanwhile, is coming off his fourth consecutive victory in the form of a major upset over the favored Adrien Broner in December to secure the WBA welterweight belt. The decision to fight Maidana may have come as a surprise to anyone who saw the results of Mayweather's social media poll during Super Bowl weekend, which asked fans to vote for either Maidana or Amir Khan as his next opponent. Though Khan garnered 57 percent of the vote, it appears he will have to continue waiting with Maidana instead getting the call this time around.

WILLIAMSON COUNTY, Texas -- Dozens of people have been dislocated from their homes after a fire broke out at a Williamson County apartment complex.
The flames burned through buildings at the International Residence Apartments complex on Copper Creek Drive near Pond Wood Road Thursday morning.
The first call came in to firefighters around 1:45. The flames started in one unit and quickly spread to two other buildings.
Austin firefighters say two of the three buildings burned down and the third suffered major damage. A total of five buildings, 68 units, had to be evacuated. Between 40 and 50 people are now out of their homes.
People living in 24 units at the complex were not accounted for earlier in the day. Officials say they have since been in contact with the Williamson County Sheriff's Office, and no injuries or deaths have been reported.
Firefighters say high winds and low humidity made putting out the blaze a challenge. Residents were even trying to help the firefighters in the harsh conditions.
"The people that live here, absolutely. I saw several incidents of them trying to run hose," said Austin Fire Lieutenant Josh Portie. "Things happened quickly as far as fire progression. You know with winds like this, it's extremely difficult to get ahead of it. Large complexes like this, close exposures, you know a lot of factors that are playing here."
The wind that caused the firefighters so many headaches at the complex also caused problems for homes behind the buildings. Embers and ash were being blown into people's yards, roofs and fences. In addition to putting out the fire at the complex, fire crews had to also extinguish several smaller fires in the surrounding area.
The American Red Cross is at the complex to help people who have been evacuated. The Alamo Drafthouse nearby also opened its doors to people who had to leave their homes. The Round Rock School District has also set up donation sites to help those affected.
The Red Cross says residents affected by the apartment fire will be briefed Thursday at 1 p.m. and 6 p.m. at the shelter located at 13427 Pond Springs Rd. Residents will be shuttled to their apartments from the shelter.
Fire investigators say it is too soon to determine what caused the fire, but they intend to stay at the complex throughout the day, working to find out.

You can have a full cup of this hearty comfort food for only 284 calories and 3.8 grams of fat!

5343 Adobe Falls Rd, San Diego, CA | Directions 9212032.782103 -117.084344
Neighborhoods: Eastern, Del Cerro, Eastern San Diego
One the worst companies Ive ever dealt with. Writing this review to give everyone else fair WARNING. I was unable to be present at the house when the repair happened. My roommate showed the ABA employee the dishwasher (after the employee showed up 1 hour later then he promised). The employee called me and told me everything had been fixed and left me an invoice. This was on Friday evening. When I came home the dishwasher still did not drain the same it did not before the ABA employee came. I didnt think much of it. Decided I would wait till Monday to take the issue back up. Early Monday morning I had Mike yelling at me because the invoice had not been paid. I informed him that everything looked exactly the same as it did before he came and wondered if they could come out again. He reluctantly agreed to show up from 5 to 7 that day to finish what was started. No one showed up from 5 to 7 that day. The next day the job was finally done and it was followed up by Mike threatening to take me to collections for the $48 job he finally completed that day. Sorry Mike. Your piss poor business and your piss poor customer service are not available for everyone to hear about. I hope no one else has to go through this in the future.
RUDEST REPAIR GUY EVER... DOWNRIGHT ABUSIVE – Mike is completely unprofessional. I called ABA to repair broken oven hinges. Once installed, the oven didn?t close all the way and the light remained on. Mike said the gasket also needed to be replaced. I also told him about a noise I had been hearing in the fridge, and he told me it needed to be repaired also. So I agreed and paid for everything up front.
His CRAZINESS surfaced when the next morning I decided to postpone the refrigerator repair. I never said anything disrespectful to prompt his abuse.
Mike's e-mail:
?I am NOT going to be abused and questioned and told: "It wasn't like that before you touched it". I did NOTHING to the light, and you basically, in your sweet way, accused me of making it not turn off. WRONG! I don't deal with people like you that are abusive in their sweet ways. I am a Professional and have choices who I provide professional service for, and when they become belligerent, (Multiple calls about a refund and making sure I GET THE AMOUNT RIGHT. laughable, when you couldn't even follow the calculations I had to explain and repeatedly re-explain, and then you had to add it yourself and got it wrong!) and abusive, as you have, I stop it, immediately. I am not ever doing anything for you again. As I said in the refund, which apparently you either did not read or absorb, Call someone else and abuse them.Good Luck with that too!?
Good, knowledgeable, conscientious repairman – I called ABA to come out and fix my washing machine (a minor leak). The part he put in didn't seem to solve the problem, but since the work is guaranteed he came back out again several days later and put in a different part at no charge. This solved the problem, and it's been more than 4 months ago. I would use him again.
Best Appliance Repair in San Diego without a question! – I have tried all the rest of the appliance repair companies in San Diego, and have never been as Satisfied about the Prompt, Courteous, Professional and Affordable Cost that ABA Appliance gave me. This takes me back in time to the time when Customer Service meant Proper Customer Service, the way that ABA Appliance has brought back to the San Diego Area! I called ABA and made my appointment within minutes of finding out my refrigerator was not working properly, and they were not only very pleasant over the phone with me, but I could actually understand the person over the phone and the technician when he came out to fix my refrigerator within an hour. There's nothing like understanding what you are paying for, when you are distraught over losing your food, and I now know that I can relax with ABA Appliance around to take care of all my Major appliance problems in the future! Thank you Michael and ABA Appliance for restoring my faith in Appliance repair companies in San Diego! What a refreshing change from the other companies I have dealt with in the past! ABA Appliance is simply untouchable by any other company, in every way! Call ABA & bypass All the Rest... they Earned the 5 Star Rating by Service Magic for a reason, they simply are the Best Appliance Repair Company in San Diego! I also was Proud to learn they are American Owned & Operated! Thank you so very much ABA Appliance & Michael for saving my day! You are the Very Best anywhere!

LibRCrypt is an Objective C library for complex data encryption based on Rubik's Cubes. The idea's pretty simple: If you represent data as the squares on a Rubik's Cube, you can apply transformations to the data and get back encrypted data, all of which is commutatitive. Just as a Rubik's Cube can be solved if you know all of the moves, this data can be "unwound", so to speak, if you know all of the transforms applied, but the encryption is even deeper than that. A cube can only cover (9 squares per face x 6 faces) 54 significant bits of data. Therefore, compressed data must be composed of multiple (even thousands) of Rubik's Cubes.
Sleutel is a multi-platform password manager that is written using the Eclipse Rich Client Platform (RCP). Its goal is to manage password/ID pairs for accessing Web sites and to provide an example RCP application. It features configurable password generation, labeling of password entries (a la GMail), an intuitive UI following the Eclipse model, merge capabilities, and the ability to track usage count and dates of password entries. Sleutel is the Dutch word for key.
Keyczar is a cryptographic toolkit designed to make it easier and safer for developers to use cryptography in their applications. It supports authentication and encryption with both symmetric and asymmetric keys. Cryptography is easy to get wrong. Developers can choose improper cipher modes, use obsolete algorithms, compose primitives in an unsafe manner, or fail to anticipate the need for key rotation. Keyczar abstracts some of these details by choosing safe defaults, automatically tagging outputs with key version information, and providing a simple programming interface.
libapache2-mod-scramble-ip is an Apache 2 module that works like mod_removeip, but instead of just overwriting the IP address with 127.0.0.1, it encrypts the IP address. This way you always get an IP address to work with (in scripts, etc.) and have the ability to use tools like awstats to analyze your logs. It's in alpha status, but working on some Apache 2 servers, and the 'cost' (load) should be small and reasonable.
The Secure Storage service for the gLite middleware provides users with a set of tools for storing data securely and in an encrypted format on the grid storage elements. Data is accessible and readable by authorized users only. Moreover, it solves the insider abuse problem by also preventing administrators of the storage elements from accessing the confidential data in a clear format. The service has been designed and developed for the grid middleware of the EGEE Project, gLite, in the context of the TriGrid VL Project.

Despite its reputation for making rich, hulking reds, good pinot noir is silky, even gossamer, with deep flavors; young pinot noir is tightly wound, like a rose bud, ready to blossom with time. Found in French red Burgundy, e.g., Chambertin, Pommard, Bourgogne, etc.; Sancerre rouge; German Spatburgunder; Swiss Dole; labeled pinot noir in California, Australia, South America, South Africa.

Rattlestick Playwrights Theater to Present LA Premiere of SLIPPING, 4/6-5/5
The Los Angeles Premiere of Slipping will begin on Saturday, April 6, and run through Sunday, May 5, 2013, as Rattlestick Playwrights Theater's first LA production. The show will play Elephant Stage's Lillian Theatre, 1076 Lillian Way in Los Angeles, Calif.
Slipping follows the emotional trajectory of 17-year old Eli, after the violent suicide of his beloved father. Alone, numb, and friendless after this tragedy, the jaded high-school senior moves with his English professor mom from San Francisco to a fresh start in Iowa. A new relationship with a boy at school exposes Eli again to the possibility of closeness and the danger of being swallowed by it. Written and directed by Daniel Talbott.
• Eli - Seth Numrich (Golden Boy, War Horse, The Merchant of Venice on Broadway; Iphigenia at Signature; the New York production of Slipping)
• Jake - MacLeod Andrews (Slipping in New York; Too Much Memory at piece by piece/Rising Phoenix Rep)
• Chris - Max Hamilton (professional stage debut; UCLA productions of RENT and Neon Boneyard)
• Jan - Wendy vanden Heuvel (Resurrection Blues by Arthur Miller at the Guthrie Theater; Counting The Ways/Talk To Me Like the Rain... at the Magic Theater; A Movie Star Has To Star in Black and White at Signature)
Slipping was originally workshopped and developed at The Royal Court Theatre and Rattlestick. It was given its world premiere in Chicago by The Side Project, directed by Adam Webster. In New York, the play premiered at Rattlestick Playwrights Theater under the direction of Kirsten Kelly. The New York production of Slipping was named one of the top ten plays of 2009 by The Advocate.
The limited Los Angeles engagement opens Saturday, April 6, 2013 and closes on Sunday, May 5, 2013 with performances running Thursdays through Sundays.
• Previews - Thursday, April 4 & Friday, April 5
• Opening Night - Saturday, April 6
• Closing Night - Sunday, May 5
Ticket prices will vary up to $34, with discounts available for theater artists, students and seniors. Advance ticketing will be available online through http://rattlestick.org starting in February.
Based in New York's West Village, Rattlestick Playwrights Theater presents diverse, challenging, and often controversial plays that otherwise might not be produced, in order to foster the future of American theater. The multi-award-winning company is the recipient of the 2007 Ross Wetzsteon Memorial OBIE Award, which recognized the organization for its work and mission: developing and producing innovative new plays.
Well-known as one of the edgiest Off-Broadway venues, Rattlestick is a playwrights' theater, which seeks out unique voices and excellence in the craft. The organization's focus is on getting bold new works up and out to the public. Rattlestick is interested in stories that are edgy, human and honest. While not everyone will always like the plays, at a minimum, audiences will be provoked to think. Rattlestick seeks out writers who are working ambitiously and fearlessly for their art. By guaranteeing a second production, Rattlestick gives its playwrights permission to take chances and, potentially, even to fail. In creating an atmosphere that fosters risk-taking, Rattlestick encourages playwrights to challenge themselves to realize their full creative potential.
With a core operational focus of launching mainstage Off-Broadway productions, Rattlestick has produced over 60 world premieres in the past 17 seasons. Now in its 18th season, Rattlestick continues to introduce new writers. Playwright and artist mentors have included Edward Albee, Jon Robin Baitz, Zoe Caldwell, Arthur Kopit, Craig Lucas, Joe Mantello, Terrence McNally, Marsha Norman, and Adam Rapp. Highly acclaimed past productions include: Volunteer Man (OBIE Award), Saved or Destroyed (OBIE Award), Faster, The Last Sunday in June (GLAAD Award nomination), The Pavilion (Drama Desk Award nomination for Outstanding Play of 2005) God Hates The Irish: The Ballad of Armless Johnny (Drama Desk Award nomination), Lady (Drama Desk Award nomination), That Pretty Pretty; Or, The Rape Play, The Amish Project, Slipping, Killers and Other Family, Post No Bills, and The Aliens (OBIE Award).

This publication provides an analysis of SEC comment letters issued to registrants across the energy value chain, including exploration and production, midstream, downstream, drillers, oilfield services, and integrated energy companies.
The energy industry has proven to be dynamic and agile: adapting to new challenges, adopting new rules and regulations and pursuing opportunities in an increasingly global economy. In 2012, the energy industry faced many changes including continued volatility of oil prices and gas prices reaching record lows, increased regulatory scrutiny of hydraulic fracturing operations and the adoption of new accounting rules focused on goodwill, comprehensive income and fair value measurements.
For the energy industry, the SEC has not only focused on general areas common to all industries, but also honed in on energy industry specific accounting and disclosure matters. As the energy industry is comprised of various subsectors—upstream, downstream, midstream and oil and gas field services—variations in comments received by the subsectors also exist.
Given the diversity of factors impacting registrants in the energy industry, transparent and robust disclosures in financial reporting continue to be of extreme importance.

Come buy great wreaths for a GREAT cause!
Event Types > Community Events
Why? Because our annual wreath fundraiser supports our Summer Nature Day Camp program, where we strive to connect children to the natural beauty & ecology of Portland's parks. At City Nature Environmental Education, we believe that connecting children to a park when they are young helps them care about parks as they get older.
Unfortunately, not all children can afford the cost of camp, so we raise money through our wreath fundraiser each December. All profits are used to bring children with very little access to nature to a week of Nature Day Camp. Partnering with schools and organizations helps us reach children in underserved neighborhoods. Sending a child to camp costs $240 - we provide buses, water bottles, snacks, and the staff.
Buy a winter wreath through Environmental Education or make a donation to the project and help send a child to camp!

How do we upgrade to 2.2 baseband WITHOUT doing a full restore??????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ???????????????????????????????????????
How do we upgrade to 2.2 baseband WITHOUT doing a full restore??????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ???????????????????????????????????????
I listened but i restored to 2.2 for the unlock. if you really care about ur applications and songs in iphone then just do a backup in itunes and then upgrade to 2.2. after upgrading,just go to itunes and sync the phone.all your previous apps will be back. after that,just use quick pwn to jailbreak and then install the unlock software yellowsn0w. hope it helps because i guess u dont want to restore because its too much hastle to reinstall all the apps back again.
I think there is no way i know of doing that without full restore... no idea if someone knows please bring out
There is the update option ... or you do a full backup, shift+restore and then resync with the chosen backup ... you won`t loose anything
dear hackint0sh members, I am amazed at the lack of common sense you have. OF COURSE I KNOW ABOUT FREAKIN ITUNES BACKUP AND RESTORE (which by the way many times causes errors due to backed up plists....) I was reffering to cydia apps and prefs DUUUUUUUUUUH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dear seseberg,
of course there is a way of backing up that. It's been there since I 1st owned an iPhone (more than 1 year back).
As you seem to have lots of common sense I am confident you will find it here.
btw - your keyboard seems to be broken.
What lack of common sense ? Your first question was related to the baseband, now you`re referring to cydia DOH !. Be gratefull people posted trying to help you.
aptbackup ain't helping as well..... I need something to JUST update the baseband. PERIOD. I've spent way to much time setting up my iphone, and I really don't like the idea of manually copying all the plists into the newly restored ipsw..........
btw: my keyboard is NOT broken......
like the 2nd comment had anything to do with what I asked............................................. .
my question about the baseband update was due to the fact that I have spent to much time customizing stuff, and I hate to take all the plists out and put them back into the newly restored ipsw.......... duh
If you would have searched the forums, you would have noticed that there are other threads like this one that are about the exact same thing.
Thread closed. I hope the OP learns some maturity before he gets his hands on an infraction/ban.

We do accept cash gifts but suggest that you not send cash through the mail. Checks may be made payable to Tennessee Technological University Foundation and mailed to:
TTU Foundation
TTU Box 1915
Cookeville, TN 38505
Directions for the use of the gift may be annotated on the memo line of your check or provided via further written instructions.
Appreciated securities are an excellent taxwise choice for making a gift to TTU. The simplest way to make a gift of publicly traded stocks, bonds, or mutual funds is to use your own broker, who may hold your securities in certificate or "book entry" form. Simply instruct your broker to transfer your securities into the following Tennessee Technological University account:
Phone: 800-289-4009
Additional information may be found here.
Tips for Gifts of Stock: The value of your gift for tax purposes is not dependent upon Tennessee Tech's sale of the stock. The amount of gift credit is equal to the average of the high and low values of the stock on the date of the gift. The date of the gift will vary depending upon which transfer method you use. If you make your gift by wire, then the gift date is the date the stock is transferred into Tennessee Tech's account. If you mail your gift, then the date of the gift is the date you place the stock certificate, stock/bond power, and letter of authorization in the mail.
A gift-in-kind is a non-cash gift (equipment, materials, electronics, etc.) of real value that represents a tangible benefit to the university. The university welcomes gifts-in-kind. However, all gifts-in-kind must be approved prior to acceptance, and the donor is responsible for any appraisal and compliance with IRS requirements. Contact anyone in University Development for assistance in making a gift-in-kind.
Tennessee Tech welcomes gifts of time or professional services, loan of equipment, etc. Such gifts are recorded accordingly, and a thank you letter is sent; however, no gift receipt is provided due to IRS restrictions.

The Supreme Court's unpopular "Citizens United" decision of 2010 has prompted CEOs to browbeat their employees about voting for Romney. America's factories, offices and stores—unless unionized-- have long been places where the Bill of Rights does not apply and workers can be fired at will for failing to respect the totalitarian structures that characterize the modern corporation. In their frantic push to elect fellow plutocrats Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan, corporate leaders are stretching even the weak bonds that Citizens United places upon them with threats and intimidation against their workers.
Citizens United does not eliminate existing state and federal prohibitions against language that is "threatening, coercive or intimidating," as AFL-CIO associate general Laurence Gold stresses. "It does not mean that anything goes."
Some states like New Jersey and Oregon also forbid management from conducting "captive audience" meetings to attempt to influence workers on electoral issues, and these statutes remain to be tested in the wake of Citizens United.
But "anything goes"-level zeal—complete with ample helpings of threats, coercion, and intimidation--seems to characterize much of the flood of corporate communications aimed at swaying the votes of workers toward Mitt Romney in the Nov. 6 election.
The torrent of communications was encouraged by Romney himself in a conference call with the National Federation of Independent Businesses leadership in June, as revealed my colleague Mike Elk of workinginthesetimes.com. Romney, operating in his persuasive salesman mode, told the business group, "I hope you make it very clear to your employees what you believe is in the best interest of your enterprise and therefore their job and their future in the upcoming elections."
Romney added a token disclaimer of non-partisanship –"And whether you agree with me or you agree with President Obama, or whatever your political view"--before getting to the closing part of his sales pitch: "Nothing illegal about you talking to your employees about what you believe is best for the business, because I think that will figure into their election decision, their voting decision…"
Since then, US workers have been targeted by a sustained assault of letters and e-mails suggesting their wages, benefits, and jobs may be at risk if President Obama is reelected.
· Murray Energy coal company tycoon Robert Murray ordered his southern Ohio coal-miners to attend a rally for Mitt Romney (while not bothering to pay them for the full days pay hours they lost while they served as working-class props in pro-Romney video footage. ) Murray Chief Operating Officer Robert Moore's explanation of the company policy could have been drafted by a satirist: "Attendance was mandatory, but no one was forced to attend the event.
Murray is even more forceful with salaried staff: "If you don't contribute, your job's at stake," one employee bluntly explained. "There's a lot of coercion," he adds, "They will give you a call if you're not giving."
· David Siegel, the resort developer who likes to be photographed in a gold, throne-like chair, wrote letter to thousands of people who work for his company, Westgate, notifying them that if Obama is reelected, and "if any new taxes are levied on me, or my company, as our current President plans, I will have no choice but to reduce the size of this company." In short, if Obama wins, you may lose your job.
· The billionaire Koch brothers, who gained wide infamy for their role in funding the Tea Party front group Americans for Prosperity and the American Legislative Exchange Council promoting regressive laws on voter suppression and corporate tax breaks, across the nation, sent out an e-mail and voter guides to their 45,000 employees at Georgia-Pacific:
"If we elect candidates who want to spend hundreds of billions in borrowed money on costly new subsidies for a few favored cronies, put unprecedented regulatory burdens on businesses, prevent or delay important new construction projects, and excessively hinder free trade, then many of our more than 50,000 U.S. employees and contractors may suffer the consequences, including higher gasoline prices, runaway inflation, and other ills." The message is not hard to translate: vote for Obama and suffer the consequences on the job, if you still have one.
· Michael White, chairman of the Rite-Hite Company in Milwaukee, Wis. sent a letter to his 1,400 workers hinting that they could face disastrous consequences if Obama wins reelection: Earnings that could strengthen the company and workers job security that instead "will be sent into the abyss that is Washington, D.C." He also warned "The other big impact on Rite-Hite employees, if President Obama is re-elected, is the good chance of losing Rite-Hite insurance and being put into Obamacare…Every opportunity to make up for lost profits to taxes will have to evaluated."
Among the many other executives issuing pro-Romney statements or otherwise anti-Obama emails or pamphlets include Request Foods' Jack Dewitt; Cintas Corp.'s Scott Farmer; ASG Software Solution's Arthur Allen; and Wynn Resorts' Steve Wynn.
The present moment illuminates the imminent threat to democracy crafted by the reactionary majority of the Supreme Court in the Citizens United case. But as we intensify our efforts to overturn the Citizens United decision (New Jersey recently became the 9th state to oppose it), we should keep in mind that a massive majority shares our fears. As Katrina vanden Heuvel of the Nation pointed out, a just-released survey by the Corporate Reform Coalition shows that 81 percent of Americans said that secret spending is "bad for democracy," and that 84 percent agreed that "average Americans' voices are drowned out by corporate spending on politics."
Our challenge is convert that widespread sentiment into a vital movement, compellingly connecting the corrupt campaign-finance system to vital concerns like falling wages, growing inequality, climate warming, and the U.S. military empire.

Sort By :
This was wonderful! I followed all instructions. I served with Texas Toast and cooked carrots. Will make again! Thank you!
This is a keeper! Because it makes 10 servings I freeze the remaining portions in 1/2 cup servings. My husband knows they are there waiting in the freezer for when he needs a quick and yummy sandwich.
I thought this was very bland. I'll definitely need to add some additional seasoning the next time around.. all I could taste was the ketchup. I was a bit disappointed given the high rating of the recipe.
This is really good. I loved it, my husband said he liked the stuff out of a can better....he ain't rating it, I think it is wonderful. Thank you for sharing!
I thought this was a little bland so I added a tsp of Cajun seasoning and a little cayenne pepper. Then I thought it was great.

UNC Asheville Joins with City of Asheville, YMI Cultural Center to Offer Classes; Three Fall Semester Courses to be Held at YMI Cultural Center
Wed, 07/15/2009 - 12:00am
Interested in the Harlem Renaissance, cultural practices of childrearing or racial health equity? These thought-provoking topics will be the focus of three UNC Asheville classes open to the public for the fall semester.
The University, in collaboration with the City of Asheville and the YMI Cultural Center, will offer these three upper-level, for-credit courses to the public beginning August 18. Classes will meet from 4:30-7 p.m. through December 8 at the YMI Cultural Center, located on the corner of Eagle and Market streets in downtown Asheville.
"Black Arts and the Harlem Renaissance" will examine how Harlem and its artists emerged from the social and political turmoil following World War I. Texts will include David Levering Lewis' "When Harlem Was in Vogue" and works by well-known authors, artists and musicians of the time. In-state tuition for this master's of liberal arts class is $452.82 and out-of-state tuition is $2,153.43, plus a one-time non-refundable $50 application fee. The registration deadline is August 12.
"Cultures of Childrearing," an undergraduate anthropology class, will present the cultural practices surrounding parenting. Using ethnographies, case studies and fieldwork, this course will focus on the different ways that various communities approach raising children.
"Community Approaches to Achieving Racial and Ethnic Health Equity" is an undergraduate health and wellness promotion course. Students in the course will learn about the history and causes of health disparities and inequalities in the United States. The class will also examine practical solutions to eliminate health disparities, with a goal of applying the lessons in the students' communities.
In-state tuition for the two undergraduate classes is $267.30 and out-of-state tuition is $1,445.76, plus a one-time non-refundable $20 application fee. Registration deadline is August 12.
