Is it Presidents Day or President's Day or Presidents' Day?
In Virginia there is no Presidents' Day. It's legally only George Washington's birthday. How well do you know America's (often bogus) holidays?
America's literary strong suit has always been humor. It's when they reach for rectitude that Americans become comic. Take holidays. In February we try to honor our presidents, but we can't figure out which ones we pay tribute to or even how to spell the holiday.
Is it Presidents Day or President's Day or Presidents' Day?
Life used to be simpler. George Washington, the father of our country, was celebrated on his birthday, Feb. 22. But society has all but erased the accomplishments of the most dynamic figure to ever walk on the American stage. Beginning in 1971, we spinelessly designated the third Monday in February as Presidents' Day.
A perfect fit for auto dealers!
One school of thought holds that Presidents' Day now honors both Washington and Abraham Lincoln. Horsefeathers! It would seem the celebrations of our two greatest presidents are now dictated by auto dealers and department stores that lobbied for one super February holiday to boost mid-winter sales. One senses a case of commerce driving history and holidays, the result being that neither of our greatest president's birthdays is celebrated on the dates they were born (Lincoln was born on Feb. 12).
In the 1960s, '70s, and '80s, there were also attempts to celebrate and consolidate Presidents' Day into a kind of American political stew pot with regional variations. In Massachusetts, the day honors occupants of the White House who hailed from there: John Adams, John Quincy Adams, Calvin Coolidge, and John Kennedy.

I have an application that contains two stages which should be shown on two different screens both in fullscreen mode. I managed to position the two stages on seperate screens, and tried to set the fullscreen property to true on each Stage, but only of them is shown without decoration. It is always the one that has the fullscreen property set last that is shown in fullscreen mode.
Is it not possible in JavaFX 2.2 to have multiple stages in fullscreen mode at the same time?

The Clemenza Foundation is one of the absolute greatest charities I have ever dealt with. As a frequent donor and volunteer to a number of organizations, it's refreshing to see how adeptly The Clemenza Foundation is run. They are exceptionally skilled at doing the "small things" correctly, and it translates directly over to the success of their programs and organization as a whole. They are entirely professional, grounded, caring, trustworthy and transparent. They certainly have my vote for charity of the year!
The Great!
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
all that they do. From bottom to top, they are meticulous and successful.
More feedback...
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
highly professional and proficient. Caring and compassionate. Transparent and driven.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
change the world. Literally. With their structure, expertise, drive, and integrity; I believe wholeheartedly that The Clemenza Foundation could literally change the world as we know it if they had $10MM.

The Hong Kong BMW M135i Owners Group had a gathering over the weekend which saw a great turnout — 10 x M135i, 4 x 328i (F30), 1 x GTR, 1 x E36, 1 x Evo and 2 x M135i that met up later.

A group of Indonesian BMW M customers flew in to Malaysia to participate in BMW M Track Days 2013 at Sepang International Circuit, Malaysia. They got the chance to drive a fleet of BMW M cars (M3, M5, M6, M6 Gran Coupe) lead by BMW Driving Instructors. Most of the cars have BMW Individual special paintwork and upholstery, which looks AMAZING in person!
BMW rolled out some very unique BMW M3 individual models for the BMW M Track Days in Singapore (at the Sepang track).
On hand were Java Green, Suzuka Grey, Sakhir Orange, and Frozen Monte Carlo Blue M3s.

With increasing numbers of the M-Lite on the road, and ever more people taking delivery it seemed that is was time to put together a meet with the aim of getting a few together in the same place to act geeky, compare cars, options, mpg figures and so on (as well as have a bit of a drive).

THE NEW SEASON/CLASSICAL MUSIC: Heights to Be Scaled And Peaks to Revisit; A Strauss Gem With a Gifted Cast
By ANNE MIDGETTE
Published: September 9, 2001
THERE are a couple of reasons to await the Metropolitan Opera's new production of ''Die Frau Ohne Schatten'' in mid-December with excitement.
First, because any chance to see this work is a good thing. Richard Strauss's seventh opera, it is a wonderful, opulent fairy tale. Strauss detractors have called it empty, long-winded (Wagnerian in length if not in scope, it lasts nearly four hours) and superficial. To those of us who love it, the piece unfolds like a gift box packed and cushioned with layer upon layer of colored tissue, the perfect holiday opera.
Second, it affords a chance to hear Deborah Voigt, after the radiant success of her Ariadne here, in another Strauss role, the Empress, which she recorded a few years ago under the direction of Giuseppe Sinopoli. There is every reason to think that this, like her Ariadne, could be one of the vocal events of the season.
The cast offers other fine singers as well, notably the inimitable Hanna Schwarz as the Amme (Nurse), and Wolfgang Brendel, matured into the bighearted, big-voiced big-daddy role of Barak. But the other musical pole of this ''Frau'' is Christian Thielemann, who goes from strength to strength, conducting the Met orchestra.
The production is also noteworthy because Herbert Wernicke is making his Met debut as stage director. The Met has yet to make really significant strides when it comes to fine contemporary staging, so the name of an important and acclaimed European director on the company roster comes as a welcome tonic. On the other hand, Mr. Wernicke has not always impressed me with his character direction. It will be inter-
esting to see what he comes up with.

Perforce Software today released six resolutions for software companies to consider when managing their development environments. The resolutions encourage companies to maintain well organized codebases and development processes to foster their growth.
"The new year is an ideal time for every organization to take an inventory of what is working well and find ways to improve—and there's no better place to start than at the very foundation of the code," said Randy DeFauw, technical marketing manager at Perforce. "In my experience with our customers, employing these software practices not only results in fewer issues down the road, but a more manageable codebase."
Perforce's six recommendations for 2013:
- Deliver like Facebook: Facebook leads its industry because it delivers improvements to its site daily. Replicating this strategy is recommended, and easier to do now that the software tool stack can match that velocity. Even if companies are not building a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) offering, product can still rapidly evolve internally without being formally released to customers. Harnessing the ability to deliver enhancements quickly will buy companies a considerable competitive advantage in their respective sectors. Added bonus: nothing keeps developers happier than seeing their code show up as live improvements in the product.
- Take Agile cross-functional: Agile isn't just for developers anymore, and companies should not limit its use to their software teams. DevOps was all about bridging the gap between development and operations, and companies will find greater success if their entire team is responding as quickly to new requirements as the development team. Consider introducing agile project management to non-techies such as Sales, Marketing and Human Resources teams.
- Get everyone on the mother ship quickly: A software company's two most valuable assets are its employees and its intellectual property. Do not operate them in silos. Instead, reuse IP wherever possible and make sure teams can work with each other. If talent is being acquired by purchasing a startup, ensure their past work can be incorporated into the existing system in a week, not a year. Let them keep using the tools they are accustomed to, even if it means running something more enterprise-ready in the background.
- Look before leaping into the cloud: The low costs, infinite scalability and minimal administration requirements make the cloud seem appealing to any company. The reality, however, is that performance, ownership and reliability issues need to be considered before deploying to the cloud. If employees are asking for a cloud-based solution, figure out why. Do they want Dropbox because there is no decent place to store their design documents and test plans? That can be fixed without cloud services.
- Be realistic: Engineers are practical people. Lay out clear goals with a reasonable time frame. If current delivery cycles are a year, they cannot be shortened to a week overnight. However, reducing the timeframe from a year to three months is indicative of significant progress and achieves buy-in for the next step.
- Study the America Invents Act: A major change to U.S. patent law is going into effect in March 2013. To prevent potential intellectual property lawsuits, it is critical to study and fully understand the nuances of first-to-file, prior use and other looming changes. Have a plan in place for adjusting software processes (from initial design through market introduction) to meet the changing legal framework. Companies using open source software should take particular care to ensure they are in compliance with all the licensing and copyright provisions.
For more than a decade, Perforce has powered the world's most demanding development environments, enabling thousands of organizations to manage and grow their codebase successfully. In addition to source code, Perforce enterprise version management products help teams work in concert on various digital assets including documents, multimedia, spreadsheets, images and more.
Free for Up to 20 Users, Open Source Projects and Educational Institutions
Perforce makes it easy for small companies and start-ups to benefit from enterprise-class software version management. The complete Perforce product family—including the new Git Fusion solution for Git repositories—is available at no cost for up to 20 users or workspaces. Perforce also is available at no cost for open source projects and educational institutions.
Perforce Software enables teams to version everything. Perforce enterprise version management products help teams work in concert on important digital assets including software code, documents, multimedia, spreadsheets, images and more. They are unique in their ability to handle large and distributed collections of content, enabling higher productivity, lower costs and improved security and compliance.

Wearable technology was dominant at this year's International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) , and MWC was no exception to this trend. New versions of favorites, such as the Samsung Gear (three new products were released: the Gear 2, the Gear 2 Neo and the Gear Fit), shared the limelight with new wearables like Pebble Time Steel (the new premium version of the company's previously released smartwatch) and the LG Watch Urbane. The most dramatic difference at MWC was an emphasis on presenting wearables as fashion accessories and moving away from the original clunky technology associated with t...

John W. Backus Dies at 82; Developed FORTRAN 271
from the go-to-considered-seminal dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
BNF is a useful notation, but it is just a notation for context-free grammars, which had already been developed and whose properties were already understood. Chomsky described the Chomsky hierarchy of formal languages, including context-free languages (type 2), in 1956, three years before Backus introduced a primitive version of BNF in describing what became Algol 58. The basic ideas came from mathematical logic and linguistics. Backus' role was to introduce these ideas to the specification of computer languages, ironically in part in reaction to the problem of specifying Fortran, which is not context-free.
Actually, I'm pretty sure they do mean ``apology'' as in ``sorry, world''. Backus's work on FP was all about getting past the ``word-at-a-time'' assignment-based paradigm popularized by FORTRAN (the ``von Neumann bottleneck''), and moving on to more expressive algebraic programming techniques, today referred to as functional programming. Check out his Turing award lecture [stanford.edu] -- it's a great read!
"..to drive a statistical website that was written in the 60's"
talking about anachronisms
Funny, yes, but misinterpretation is not insight.
I use code today to drive a statistical website that was written in the 60's
The code was developed in the 60's. It (the code) is used today to drive a statistical website.
(yes, yes, I know, he's no apologising in the usual sense; this is a play on words, or a pun, as it is also known)
Not quite:
Source: WordNet (r) 1.7
n 1: an expression of regret at having caused trouble for someone; "he wrote a letter of apology to the hostess"
2: a formal written defense of something you believe in strongly [syn: apologia]
(this is another accepted meaning of a word, or an alternate meaning, as it is also known)
The tao that can be tar(1)ed is not the entire Tao. The path that can be specified is not the Full Path.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

I posted this in the cider section, but since this is a wine making method and will most likely get more views here, I went ahead and posted twice.
I am going to make some apple cider. I want to purge the bottle similar to champagne after secondary (disgorging)to remove the lees,dregs or yeast in the neck of the bottle. As far as I have read, the loss from the yeast purge is toped off with anything from cognac to more cider and/or sugar, then capped. However, if more sugar in any form is added, more yeast will grow. I have heard of both pasteurization and adding metabisulfite or a similar compound to kill off any residual yeast and keep the cider clear. Any thoughts or places to go for advice?
Read my reply in the cider section
Nothing - Out of room - have to bottle something before I can fit more on the aging shelf.
Lost count, too many damn carboys
I've always just sacraficed the first bottle I disgorge to topping off the others when their done.
What ever you use, don't add anything with additional sugar.

Notebook: Ugly habit of conceding first continues
Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Montreal Impact had the Houston Dynamo talking slow starts once again.
Coming into Saturday's game, Houston had conceded a goal in the first 15 minutes in two of their past three contests. Against Montreal, the Dynamo once again found themselves in a quick hole after conceding a fourth-minute goal to Sanna Nyassi, setting up another match where the Dynamo had to play from behind.

Swiss banks erased records of Jewish accounts
Swiss banks systematically hid and destroyed records of bank accounts from the Holocaust period, thus preventing their owners from claiming their money and assets, according to a lawsuit set to be filed next week.
During the Nazi regime in 1933-1945 some 7 million bank accounts were created in Switzerland. An estimated 60,000 of them were opened by Jews in a bid to salvage their property from the Nazis, with the intention of reclaiming it after World War II.
Years later it emerged that the records of some 3 million of these accounts had disappeared and been destroyed....

Deadline April 8th: Aperture Summer Open
Call for Entries: Summer Open
Deadline: Wednesday, April 8, 2015 at 12:00 noon EST
"In July 2015, Aperture Foundation will host its second open-submission exhibition for which all photographers are eligible. The theme for this year's Summer Open is Black Mirror, and it will be curated by Michael Famighetti, editor of Aperture magazine.
Do we live in a world wilder than science fiction? The 2015 Aperture Summer Open borrows its title from the British television series Black Mirror, which imagines a dystopian near-future—a Twilight Zone for the age of the smartphone. The name Black Mirror refers to the omnipresent screens through which our lives are mediated today, and the show depicts a society in which technology ominously defines and shapes our relationships and each facet of daily life.
We're more than thirty years beyond Orwell's imagined 1984, and yet we continue to live in a moment of anxiety about what the future holds. Aperture's Summer Open asks contributors to consider the future and the idea that we inhabit a world that is stranger, and in some ways more frightening, than that predicted by the authors of science fiction. What does it mean when our current reality echoes what were once outlandish fictional narratives? As today becomes tomorrow, what might the future look like in photographs? We seek a wide range of submissions, representing diverse subjects and approaches to photography, that are in some way engaged with questions about what the world has become and is becoming."

5:30-8:00 pm: Opening Reception

2015 JEG Solo Exhibition Award
Selected by Elizabeth Siegel, Associate Curator of Photography, Art Institute of Chicago
Clare Benson, The Shepherd's Daughter
My work is deeply rooted in my family history. After the death of my mother when I was eleven years old, I became increasingly curious about notions of family, memory, and mortality. I was raised by my father: an avid hunter, archery champion, and former hunting guide in the Alaskan wilderness. Growing up amidst the hunting culture of northern Michigan, I learned to see hunting as a tradition that ties humans to the natural world; a ritual that speaks to notions of mortality and the interconnectedness of life within a larger system. Before my father, my grandmother was a hunter and before that my great-grandmother, and long before that the stars made up constellations that told stories of the greatest hunts. In my work, the nuances of hunting and the rugged northern landscape of my childhood are woven with narratives of genealogy and gender, memory and mythology, time and space."

IN SUMMARY: Finding Your Audience: Marketing Master Class
Finding Your Audience: Marketing Master Class
January 21-26, 2015 in Tucson, Arizona
I accepted a group of participants for my Master Class from a larger pool of applicants based on two criteria: the maturity of their work and their level of experience in our industry. All had attended portfolio reviews and were beginning to place and publish their work. All agreed that traveling to beautiful, snow-free Tucson to be consumed with a rich dialogue on the changing marketplace for photography was a great way to kick off the new year.
Our site visit to the Center for Creative Photography was rich with information on best practices shared by staff members from six different departments. We learned about best practices for artists, from mounting, matting, installing and caring for your prints, informing curators about your work, engaging the public with your work through educational programming and much much more from the CCP's inspiring and generous staff.
Terry Etherton from Etherotn Gallery offered sage perspective on the role of gallery in your career, and the increasing importance of the art fairs to today's diverse collecting market. Interior designers Scott Baker and Mary Ann Hesseldenz shared their passion for placing inspiring artwork in the homes of their clients, and their role as conduit between artists and clients.
Rebecca Blume Rothman, Public Art Program Manager for the City of Phoenix shared her insights on the increasing presence of photography in public art projects and the related proposal/production processes, and artist Ken Rosenthal shared his successful Kickstarter experience to publish his catalogue Photographs 2001-2009. Last but not least artist Lisa M. Robinson spoke to the subject of her Afterword for Finding Your Audience entitled New Beginnings: Making New Work following the critical success of SNOWBOUND.
It was an amazing week and I am grateful to our Guest Speakers and our Course Assistants for their important contributions to our event.
Dates for January 2016 will be announced soon, stay tuned!
February 5th, San Francisco: Opening Reception & Book Signing "Alec Soth: Songbook"
Fraenkel Gallery
Alec Soth: Songbook
Reception: Thursday, February 5, 2015, 5:30-7:30 pm
"Fraenkel Gallery is pleased to announce our first solo exhibition of the work of Alec Soth. On view from February 5 – April 4, 2015, Alec Soth: Songbook will feature approximately 20 new and never-before-seen photographs.
Celebrated for his haunting and influential portraits and landscapes in such acclaimed books as Sleeping by the Mississippi, Broken Manual, and NIAGARA, Alec Soth has recently turned his lens toward community life in the country. From 2012 to 2014 Soth traveled the United States looking for signs of social life in our era of virtual social networks. To aid in his search, Soth assumed the increasingly obsolescent role of community newspaper reporter. From upstate New York to Silicon Valley, he attended hundreds of meetings, dances, festivals and family gatherings.
With Songbook, Soth has stripped these pictures of their news context in order to highlight the longing for connection at their root. Fragmentary, funny, and sad, Songbook is a lyrical depiction of the tension between American individualism and the ongoing desire to be united."
The exhibition will be on view February 5 – April 4, 2015.
The accompanying publication, Songbook, was published by MACK, January 2015.
