Dodger Stadium, Los Angeles, California
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Esteban Loaiza pitched much better out of the bullpen than he did in his first start of the season. Hong-Chih Kuo wouldn't have needed Loaiza's help as early as he did had his control been better.
Kuo's pitch count prevented him from taking advantage of a rare offensive outburst by the Dodgers, and Loaiza pitched the final five innings for the win as Los Angeles routed Pittsburgh 11-2 on Tuesday night to end the Pirates' four-game winning streak.Jeff Kent and Russell Martin led the way with home runs, and James Loney extended his season-opening hitting streak to 14 games.Loaiza (1-2) allowed a run and three hits, struck out two and walked none. The right-hander, who made his big league debut with the Pirates in 1995 and has pitched for seven other teams since, is 2-0 in two appearances against them."Loaiza's a professional pitcher, and his job is to be prepared whenever he goes out there," Martin said. "That win was his for the taking, and he did a good job of keeping it that way. He really started getting in a groove, painting the outside corner and using his variation of his fastball with his cutter. He executed his game plan to perfection."Kuo, making his second start this season and the first that he was scheduled to make, threw 75 pitches over four innings. The left-hander allowed a run and two hits, struck out six and walked three -- all consecutively."We were going to let him go 80-85 [pitches], but once he finished that inning with 75 pitches, that was enough," manager Joe Torre said. "The first inning is what knocked him out of the box. He had 32 pitches that inning. He's intriguing, there's no question about it."Kuo's first start was April 2, when Torre decided to hold back Chad Billingsley until later in the game because of the threat of inclement weather."Kuo was a little erratic at the beginning, but he still battled," Martin said. "He has that fastball that looks invisible to hitters. It seems like he can just throw fastballs all day, and hitters have a hard time making contact. He creates his own damage sometimes by walking people, but if he stays around the zone, he's going to be all right."A bases-loaded walk to Ronny Paulino in the first gave Pittsburgh the lead, but the Dodgers pulled ahead 3-1 in the fourth on a two-run double by Andre Ethier and Loney's run-scoring single.Loney is one of two players to hit safely in each of his team's first 14 games this year, along with Pittsburgh's Nate McLouth. Kansas City's Billy Butler had his 13-game streak snapped by the Seattle Mariners earlier Tuesday.McLouth, whose three-run homer in the ninth off closer Takashi Saito sent the Pirates to a 6-4 win on Monday, kept his streak alive with a first-inning single and hit a broken-bat double in the eighth. He is the first Pirates player to open a season with a 14-game hitting streak since Hall of Famer Willie Stargell in 1976.Los Angeles extended the lead to 8-1 in the fifth, scoring five runs with two outs. Rafael Furcal hit an RBI single and Matt Kemp followed with a triple that chased Matt Morris (0-2). Paul Dumatrait relieved and plunked Ethier with a 1-2 pitch before Kent drove a 2-1 delivery deep into the left-field pavilion."That fifth inning there -- two outs, man on second -- then all of a sudden they ended up getting five runs," Morris said. "I was one pitch away from getting out of it and keeping it at 3-1. It's just location and how sharp your pitches are. But the location's been off. And seeing more pitches as the game goes on gives them an advantage."Kent's third homer of the season increased his RBI total to 1,468, vaulting him past Rusty Staub for 50th place. Kent's 368 homers are tied for 65th place on the career list with teammate Andruw Jones, who hasn't hit one since Sept. 19 with Atlanta.Martin, who led NL catchers last season with 19 homers, led off the eighth with his first of the season. Jones singled and scored on a double-play grounder by Loaiza."I'm not really trying to swing for the fences. I'm just trying to hit the ball as hard as I can and stay with my game plan," Martin said. "My game is hitting the ball gap to gap and hitting it where it's pitched. The last couple of games I feel like I've been having better at-bats."The Dodgers and Pirates were among nine big league teams that dressed all uniformed personnel in No. 42 jerseys to commemorate the 61st anniversary of Jackie Robinson's first game in the majors. Robinson's longtime Brooklyn Dodgers teammate, Don Newcombe, threw out the ceremonial first pitch. He was accompanied by Kathy Robinson Young, Jackie's niece.Game notes
Dodgers broadcaster Vin Scully recalled a game in 1951 at Cincinnati's Crosley Field, where Robinson received pregame death threats. Teammate Gene Hermanski suggested during a pregame clubhouse meeting that all the players wear No. 42, thinking it would confuse any potential assassin.

text: Love hiking and cooking (Italian for the most)!!! Reading and having long chats in front of a glass of wine are my big hobbies too!! I frequently escape to my cozy little apartment in Proceno VT, to relax and enjoy the tranquil and laid-back atmosphere, so rare nowadays. I love sharing this place with others, let them discover secret Italy. More difficult to sell, if that was all about, but since I bought the apartment primary because I love the place, I am happier to propose a great unique spot to a small circle of "appassionati" in search of a non-tourist experience.

Hi everybody,
First, sorry if my english is not very good, I come from Belgium ;-).
I have a little question about the
(package java.math) class. By having a glance at its source, we can see that it is fully immutable.
Recently, I discovered that a bug was reported concerning this class at the following URL
The guy talks about the fact that it is possible to modify an object that had been instanciated in one Thread before (through its reference).
As I am interested in this class behaviour, I would like to know if someone was able to reproduce this bug because I was not. I tried to instanciate several Threads and passing them a
reference but nothing append.
Thanks !!!
Edit : Sorry for my name I forgot to change it after having seen the rules. Now it is done :-)

Hello James-
Welcome to JavaRanch.
I glanced at the bug report, and it doesn't say how a
is supposed to be changed. As you point out, by their public API they're immutable. It's possible to change the fields the value is based on by using the reflection API, but I wouldn't say that that makes them thread-unsafe. And even final fields would not be safe from that.
But the bug was filed against a development version of
1.6, so I don't know what might be different in that compared to current production versions.

Thanks for your answer,
Can an object be interrupted during the call to its constructor ? IT would mean that one object that has been interrupted during the assignment to its final fields can be passed to one other Thread which will complete the assignment at its manner ?
It is the only weakness I see in this class.

Not usually. The only way in which some other thread could get a reference to an object whose constructor is still running, is if that constructor explicitly passes a reference to "this" to some other object. Example:
public class Example { private Date whenCreated; public Example() { super(); SomeOtherClass.getInstance().setReference(this); // now an instance of some other class has a reference to me whenCreated = new Date(); // even though the constructor has not finished } }
But that isn't what that bug report says anyway. It is talking about different threads seeing a single instance differently because of the "Java memory model". If you want to know what that is all about, read chapter 17 of the Java Language Specification for yourself. It's certainly beyond my ability to explain that sort of thing. But on the other hand if you have real work to do, I would not worry about it too much.

Thanks Paul,
I think that the bug can be reproduced by creating an object which encapsulates a
and instanciate this into its constructor. The Java Memory Model deals with the writing of final fields and their consequence.
It deals with the fact you were talking about, and I think that the bug is relative to the example shown at page 608 from the JLS.
I keep on
this and will post in my topic later ;-)

Well, if you do produce bug-like behaviour then you should post the information on the bug database. What I saw there was just theoretical and didn't actually say the bug had ever occurred anywhere, so you would be providing useful information to them.

It seems that the problem comes from the fields used by a
to store differents values to avoid re-computing at each time.
I think it is a waste of time to try to reproduce the bug, because of the random and the rarity of Thread-based bugs.
Fields used to store some values cannot be set final, because they are assigned dynamically. So the first thing to do is certainly to synchronize all the methods that access to these fields.
Then, some fields are declared with the package visibility because they are used in other classes like
for example. These fields cannot be set private to avoid modifying other implementations, but I think we need to synchronize the methods which write these fields too.
In conclusion, I think that the problem can be resumed into a synchronization from some methods of the class, and put a private modifier where we can.

Oil's Quiet Head-and-Shoulders Top
We certainly have a theme going in the market: the slowdown theme.
There are plenty of folks out there who think the economy is doing just fine but when you pin them down, there is quite a consensus view that Katrina will take approximately 1% off of GDP in the quarter.
Now, the bulls expect it will not upset the growth in the economy; they believe it will be a one-off event in the quarter and then we're back on track.
The bears have a different view in that they believe we are just going to fall off a cliff.
I thought of this as I looked at the chart of crude oil Thursday. You see, we are beginning to hear folks use the word stagflation when it comes to the economy. The gist I get from all this economic chatter is that they think prices, crude included, are moving higher while growth is slowing. I am a mere chart reader, but when I look at the chart of crude oil I wonder why no one is discussing the head-and-shoulders top developing in this chart. This won't be a completed pattern until the chart breaks that $62.50 level, but note that I have also drawn in an uptrend line. Most folks have that uptrend line drawn in and they can see clearly that a break of $62 will break the uptrend, but if we break $62 we will be breaking two important technical patterns with an uptrend line and a neckline at that level. A break is always more important when it breaks two things, not just one.If we use the numbers of a high of 71 and a low of 63 (remember, these are not exact, they are meant to be general areas) we get 8. Then we can subtract 8 from 63 to get 55. But this brings me back to the folks who are chattering about the market. Have you noticed you rarely hear anyone say something about the market rallying if crude falls? Remember when we used to hear that all the time? Now we don't. Now we hear that if crude falls it's because the economy is slowing! And that is all part of the bearish sentiment that is building out there. As I showed in Thursday's column, the Investor's Intelligence percentage of bears is currently at 26.6% and I fully expect it will continue to move higher. A reading in the mid-30s is often seen at trading bottoms. We aren't there yet, but we are heading in that direction. We are still not yet oversold but we have now had four days with the NYSE advance/decline line in negative territory. We rarely get more than five days without a bounce of some sort because no market goes down in a straight line. I expect we will see a market bounce either today or Monday. However, we are not yet oversold on the oscillator and there is not quite yet enough bearishness out there, so I continue to expect if we get a bounce in here it will be short-lived because we will still have some more work to do on the downside.

An old woman walked down the street, it was late at night. She had been out to the grocery store for some celery. Unfortunately they were out so she was returning home empty-handed.
It was unusually dark that night, clouds had rolled in blocking out the moon, and a storm was coming. She continued down the street, still quite a ways from her home. The street was empty, save for an animal that may wonder by.
As she walked, using her cane to support herself, she thought she heard steps behind her. Slowly turning around, she found that no one was behind her. Continuing on her way home, the stepping noises picked-up again, even with her bad hearing they where very obvious to her. Turning around again, more quickly, she still found nothing behind or around her. She quickened her pace as much as her old legs would let her, hoping to get home quickly.
She turned down the next street, only 3 blocks to go. Still hearing the steps, she just continued walking, trying to ignore them. Perhaps they were only her imagination. About a half way down the street, a bush rustled next to her, frightening her half to death. Thinking someone had been stalking her, she raised her cane in defense but only a small cat jumped out. She sighed in relief. She looked down at the cat that looked back at her. It was a mostly brown, though calico cat. She reached down to pet it, the cat complied by lovingly rubbing against her hand.
Though she tried to leave the cat, it followed her down the second street. After a few minutes, she began to hear the steps, stepping quicker this time as she sped-up a little more. Aside from the steps she heard and the sounds of the night, the cat that had been following her had been meowing, but about a third of the way down the street, she suddenly noticed that it had stopped. She turned around to find that it was no longer behind her. Unsure of its where-abouts, she walked even faster, only one more street to go
As she turned down the last street, she distinctly heard the steps behind her move quicker. Almost to a run, though her old body could no longer allow her to run, she was about half way down the street, only a few houses remained between her and her house. Suddenly she heard a crash and quickly spun around, a trashcan that had been on the curb had fallen, some of its contents in the street.
In full panic, she walked up the path to her door, still hearing the steps. She quickly unlocked her door got inside and locked it behind her. She stopped and put her ear to the door but could hear the footsteps anymore.
She sat worryingly in her bed all night until morning

4.5 Okay cards for general use crimsonshadow | 29/11/2011 | See all crimsonshadow's reviews (18) These cards are okay for general use, they are not however ideal for a magician or card enthusiast.
4.5 Cards - Fun for all ages Webbington | 26/01/2011 | See all Webbington's reviews (2) I recently purchased this fine deck. My great Uncle has the original release of this product, and it's fair to say they have stood the test of time. They're pleasing on the eye, as they were all those years ago. The feel of these cards are very smooth on the hand, not like the ones you can obtain from pound stretcher (it's definately worth the extra 99p)I have played Cards for many years, from Eastbourne to Vegas and i'm yet to find a better deck. Also a great bonus of this pack is that the Joker cards are very humerous, lol.Finally, and most importantly, i must say they shuffle effortlesslyBuy this product, and make use of the great price while you still can. A great treat for yourself, or a gift for a friend or loved one (Especially with Valentines day coming up)

Defeat the Seven Daimyos and their Shogun, and restore peace to the land! As the Samurai, you will have to choose your battles carefully to overcome the enemiesâEUTM forcesâEU¦
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
Solid grade-A game with room for improvement.
I agree with other posts below; This game is a great single-serving quick experience, but the if the game gave players the chance to carry over purchased upgrades, stat boosts and/or companions, the game would have incredible replayability. I mean, I'm still playing it a few times (ha), but those additions would increase incentive to play again.
Rated 4 / 5 stars
Great game, but it's one of the many flash games that relies too heavily on luck. The layout of the boards can really help or hinder you.
The upgrade system was great, but even if I had a set plan in mind, I found I didn't have enough silver to get everything that I wanted.
As a final note, I think there should be some kind of "revive" option. I played a super team build, which left my Samurai largely un-upgraded. So he could die, but I could have 3 companions and 2 shadow warriors alive, and I would still lose. This seems like bad design to me, especially since you can spend as much xp on any 1 of your companions as you can on your own samurai.
Great game, lots of fun and cool style, but those issues just made it really frustrating, among several smaller ones.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
The only reason I give 4.5 stars instead of 5 is because it needs an option to continue in the campaign with your current upgrades, to basically allow the player to keep playing until their samurai and his companions are all maxed out.

How does God know he's omniscient?
Omniscience is defined herein as the knowledge of all facts. Presumably, any God with a reasonably close resemblance to the God of Theism knows everything there is to know about himself by virtue of being himself, and he knows everything about his creation based on the fact that he created it all and continuously sustains its existence. In particular, what allows him to determine that he and that which he created do not exist in a sort of "causal enclosure", a self-contained system which is really just a small part of a larger world that it is causally unrelated to? If an omniscient God is possible, there must be some logically-conceivable mechanism which would allow him to know that he is not inside such an enclosure, and that the limits of his awareness are in fact the limits of existence. But it seems to me that there can't be such a mechanism, since all his mental inputs and the resulting beliefs could easily be the same whether he's lord of everything or whether he's just the God of a small sub-universe. I assume here that knowledge, whatever else it may be, is at least a form of true belief which has a particular kind of causal relationship with the thing that it is about. Knowledge can't be just any true belief; if I believe something that just so happens to be true, but my belief was arrived at arbitrarily and has no basis in reality, then that's not knowledge, it's simply coincidence. If we have knowledge of some particular fact of reality, which knowledge we will call "x", that means there's some causal connection which we can trace from x to the thing that x is about, and the nature of that connection is such that it justifies x and disconfirms ~x. Furthermore, this connection must be such that it would not serve to justify x if x was false. |

Role:Rajmata Mrinalini Devi
A born princess, a natural queen and a regal queen mother- Rajmata Mrinalini Devi is the kind of mix of elegance and severity that comes from years and years of practice.
For the Rajmata, the world that they live in has a certain balance of power, and she does not like it being questioned. Yet, she has never demanded that power and authority always commanded it. She never raises her voice, in fact she speaks in low dulcet tones, which make a person automatically listen to her, as if what she is saying is too important to miss. Her authority over her kingdom, her family and her children and grandchildren is absolute. She is controlling but not cruel or malicious in any way.
Role:Vahini Saheb
Role:Narayani Devi
Narayani devi frees Parvatti from the prision and then helps her in her fight with wrong.
Role:Durga Khanna
Jeet and Veer's mother who was never fond of Veer's wife. She always tried to scheme things against her so that she is humiliated in front of the entire family.
MaaSa/Triveni is Singh family's head
Role:Sulekha Diwan
Siddhi''s Friend & Ronit''s Mother

Overview | Blog Posts | Discussions | People |
According to texts of ayurveda asthis or bones are formed from the nutrients supplied by medho dhatu through asthivaha srothas.The nutrients in medho dhatu which is meant to nourish asthi dhatu are processed in asthivaha srothas by dhatwagnis. Dhatwagni and bhutagni (vayu, agneya and prithvi) bring about hardness and heaviness to these nutrients which form asthi or bone.
Functions of asthi according to ayurveda: In nature we observe that trees are supported by strong solid stems. Same way human body is supported by strong bones. All muscles (mamsa), tendons and ligaments are attached to asthis (bones). Asthi supports these structures and gives shape to our body. Asthi Vriddhi Laxana: When asthi dhatu increases more than normal , it leads to formation of adhyasthi (hypertrophy of bone) and adhidanta (formation of extra teeth). Asthi Kshaya Laxanas: When asthidhatu or nutrients of asthidhatu reduces the following diseases may surface. Asthitoda : Inflammation of bones and joints (like arthritis) Sadana : weakness Dwija prapatana : falling of teeth Srama : weakness Bhagna : pathological fractures Phakkaroga : rickets Asthi Kshaya : thinning of bones like osteoporosis Asthi Vrana : Osteomyelitis This article is copyrighted .

I have to confess, I'm not the most mature person. The first time I heard the term "jerk" in reference to how food is prepared (oh, four or five years ago), I giggled and thought to myself, "Prepared BY jerks or FOR jerks?" Yeah, really original, I'm sure....
