Massimiliano Allegri is convinced he will keep his job and steer AC Milan back up the Serie A table, and through the Champions League group stage, despite another demoralising week.
The Rossoneri boss has endured a torrid start to the new campaign, losing an alarming five from eight league games so far and struggling to register points on the continent.
But ahead of tomorrow night's visit of Genoa, Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani insisted Allegri is the man to rebuild the club, with the full backing of president Silvio Berlusconi.
Allegri told Gazzetta.it: "I've never feared the sack, even given the hard times we are going through.
"We are giving our all to climb up the league table and to progress in the Champions League.
"We have to persevere, improve and be a bit more clinical in front of goal.
"The boys have quality and I'm convinced that will see us through.
"Tomorrow will be an important game because we want to give something back to the fans.
"Hopefully that will be the victory that the players deserve for what they have done on the pitch.''
Veteran manager Luigi Del Neri takes control of the Grifone for the first time after replacing Luigi De Canio this week, and Allegri is wary of what the Ligurian outfit have to offer.
"They're a good team, who have good technical players and a coach who puts a lot into arranging his defence,'' said the 45-year-old.
"Our responsibility is to stay patient and not let ourselves down by being too anxious.
"We have to go onto the pitch knowing that we have 90 minutes to secure the win - without being nervous and panicking.
"We have to play a simple game. But we absolutely have to win, and the boys are in good enough shape to do so.''
One player who is not in good enough condition to take part is Holland international Nigel De Jong, who is struggling with a hip injury.
Del Neri might have preferred a simple debut in the Genoa hotseat, and his cause is not furthered by the loss of striker Marco Borriello (ankle) for six weeks.
At his unveiling, the former Chievo boss said: "There is every chance that we can be successful.
"We want to start laying the foundations for years to come.
"We won't overhaul everything straight away but we do need to change the road we are going down.''

Windows coming to Amazon EC2 soon October 1, 2008
Posted by James Webster in : web, development, dotnet , trackbackAmazon have announced that Windows server (32 & 64 bit) will be available on their EC2 cloud later this year. Further details will be available at the PDC later this month.
This is a great announcement. .Net developers have not really been able to come to the cloud computing party since most (if not all?) publicly available clouds have run on Linux. Sure, there is Mono but not many professional 'Mort' .Net developers go anywhere that!
I am looking forward to seeing what the pricing structure for this will be given that Microsoft will be expecting some license revenue. Does the availability of Windows on the EC2 cloud reflect new licensing options from Microsoft for cloud computing infrastructure providers?
There is also the security angle to consider… Windows boxes have a reputation for being malware magnets, if EC2 makes it easy and cheap for anyone to become the administrator of their own Windows server out on the Internet are we going to see these EC2/Windows instances get hacked and turned into spambots/DDOS nets? Will there be other restrictions on what we will be able to install on these machines… Microsoft Office, Visual Studio; notwithstanding that usability of these over RDP might be less than stellar, will it be possible?
Many questions, guess we will have to wait until the PDC for answers! Oh, and how about multicast support on EC2 eh? Seems obvious given the number of grid vendors, GridGain & Gigaspaces to name two, who talk about running grids on EC2 but then require slightly trickier configuration of their products than would be necessary if multicast was supported.
- 1. Geva Perry - October 2, 2008
James — We have actually overcome the multicast issue and will be providing a solution (in fact, a whole set of "cloud tools") soon. In the meantime, it's available for private beta. If anyone's interested contact ec2 at gigaspaces dot com.
Geva Perry
GigaSpaces - 2. Moshe Kaplan - October 2, 2008
According to our last check,
Flexiscale.com cloud supports windows images and custom images on demand (real per hour model), so there is nothing new…
Check also their SLA and other features that are still missing in EC2Best Regards,
Moshe Kaplan

A quick, tasty, and good-for-you soup.
Three Many Cooks
Dressing for Maggy and Andy's wedding over five years ago and then again for Sharon and Tony's just a few weeks I go, I distinctly remember being grateful that I didn't have to crash diet for either event. For nearly seven years I've kept off the forty pounds I lost between 2004 and 2005.
How did I do it? It all started when I hit bottom in 2003. I was sitting in an empty house physically ailing and emotionally spent. We had just moved to a new town, Maggy was off to England for her junior year abroad, and Sharon was starting her freshman year of college. I spent the next nine months finding a new doctor, tending to my ailing body, and healing emotionally.
Only then was I ready to embrace a new lifestyle, to finally shed the weight. There are two ways to do it – exercise more or eat less. From years of personal experience I knew diets didn't work. As soon as they were over I reverted back to my old ways and the pounds came back with a vengeance. Normal eating coupled with increased exercise was what worked for me.
I used to use food as a vice to satisfy my overworked, exhausted self. After healing I started to see food as a pleasurable way of taking care of myself. I was finally able to ask myself what I really needed to eat to be happy (see video below for what worked for me). I didn't deprive myself of anything. I simply set boundaries about when and how much I'd eat. This became the new normal. When I reached my weight loss goal I had established a new pleasurable way of eating. All I had to do was cut back on my exercise (bummer).

"Make no mistake, I was humbled by Auburn's decision. And I knew this had to be a God appointment because this whole thing just didn't make sense otherwise. I knew God had to be behind opening this door," Chizik said in the book.
Auburn coach Gene Chizik writes about Iowa State departure in new book - ESPNQuote:
Chizik also expressed dismay at a statement Pollard released once news broke of Chizik's departure questioning the timing of his decision and how the process played out.
"Jamie is a quality athletic director, and I respect him for what he has done at Iowa State. But I wish he had handled my departure differently. It could have, and should have, gone so much better for all involved," Chizik wrote.

Flashback: Camdessus-Suharto Pic
As we draw closer to the tenth anniversary of the most harrowing events of the Asian financial crisis, I decided to revisit perhaps the signature image of those tumultuous times. To the left is then-IMF Managing Director Michel Camdessus and to the right is then-Indonesian President Suharto. On 15 January 1998, Suharto signed a deal with the IMF for another bailout package full of unpopular austerity measures. CNN's introduction to a story on the signing goes like this:
Indonesian President Suharto on Thursday signed a new deal with the International Monetary Fund, sacrificing his family's interests to put his nation on surer footing for economic recovery.Suffice to say, things did not immediately get better as it wasn't until 1999 that Indonesia experienced economic growth again after experiencing negative growth in 1998. Riots over removed subsidies and over the economic dominance of a Chinese elite prevailed for quite some time.The new deal binds Suharto to a pledge to sweep away monopolies, subsidies, tariffs and tax breaks for pet projects -- including a national car program headed by his youngest son, Hutomo Mandala Putra, known as Tommy.
"Indonesia should be able to soon begin to overcome its economic crisis," said IMF Managing Director Michel Camdessus.
The picture is laden with heavy symbolism: Western "imperialism" made Indonesia capitulate to the IMF's austerity measures, i.e. the infamous "structural adjustment" policies. Camdessus, with his arms crossed, peers over the shoulder of a visibly cowed Suharto, who would be turfed out of office later that year. Astute commenters like Nouriel Roubini see the fear of experiencing what happened to Indonesia as a reason why Asian countries have stacked up far more foreign exchange reserves than they ought to by conventional measures of reserve adequacy. Roubini says these countries have drawn the "wrong lessons" in ensuring that they never have to turn to the IMF when encountering balance of payments problems. As these countries have piled on more reserves, the IMF has become marginalized as of late in the global political economy. Some even say that the US is trying to maintain the IMF's relevance by using it as a tool to get China to revalue. You never know, though, if another cataclysmic event hits and makes the IMF spring to action again. Ironically, piling up excess reserves may be the precursor to such an event.

As for the disc, for one, you can expect Larger Than Life to be next to bare bones since itď¿s another nail in MGMď¿s budget title catalog and the demanding MSRP is reasonable, and secondly, itď¿s a kiddie flick and therefore features are not a top priority, and three, the films next to pitiful $8 Million box office haul doesnď¿t help either. That said, there is the obligatory Trailer presented in a widescreen format. Nothing special there. No booklet as usual. And since this is still an adolescent adventure, MGM gave us a bland full-frame presentation that is a tad bit above VHS quality. The picture quality is simple, faded, and bland. Nothing really stands out as a nice transfer would have and things remain in a neutral setting whether bright or dark, never adjusting quality with a change of atmosphere. And since there is really no sound effects and dramatic explosions to show off, the Stereo Surround mix is rather bland. Oh, and in addition to the less than par picture and sound quality we get a bland little promo for a dozen or so other MGM family budget titles.
The reason I give Larger Than Life a four star rating is because as a film I enjoyed it, Murray was flawless and his sarcastic humor never let me down, plus the fabulous cameo by McConaughey didnď¿t hurt. But as a DVD, itď¿s a toss up. MGM put no effort into the release and starved the flick of anything other than a Trailer. Yet on the other hand, the film is meant for the kids and there is not a demand for deleted scenes or commentaries among the target audience plus the low MSRP keeps Larger Than Life in reason. If you are looking for an affordable family fun title that the kids will get a kick out of then by all means go for Larger Than Life, and for those who are fans of Murrayď¿s relentless sarcastic antics, but those who are looking for a full fledged feature filled disc (which I doubt there are more than a dozen or so including myself) should steer clear. Larger Than Life is a fun kids flick that the whole family can sit back and enjoy, and for the budget itď¿s a full fledged value. Thanks for reading my rather lengthy review of Larger Than Life; I hope it helps in your decision.
As for the DVD quality of American Ninja, I must say MGM pumped out a nice budget title and put some faith in a relatively forgotten film. The transfer is pure and crisp, flesh tones are bright and the picture is clear and vibrant with no sign of aging. A high quality 1.85:1 transfer for such a lost 80's hit. As for the sound, well, I guess the quality is fine; as good as it's going to get for a Mono mix. But I guess the constant, cheesy little sword slashes and fake punches got to me, not that this has anything to do with the quality of the mix, it's the sound effects that got bothersome in those few scenes. So other than that, the mix is great and the sounds are well divided and decipherable from one another. As for features, we get an interesting little trailer that die-hard American Ninja fans will adore. The trailer is an old little 80's trailer with that booming voice we are so familiar with that narrated half of the 80's Action flicks way back when that bears the original title American Warrior. Kind of nostalgic and one for the fans. Plus the trailer itself is in great shape and has some decent, if not tiresome and aged sound.
American Ninja is a simple film that will keep you munching on popcorn for a good 95 minutes. If you are a fan of Martial Arts films or the cheesy Action films of the Reagan era then I can give a full-hearted recommendation for American Ninja. Those who have the viewing mentality of Roger Ebert need to steer clear, you'll only be complaining of the lack of relevance American Ninja fails to hold. Simply put, American Ninja is simply for the Action fans or those who feel like adding another mindless title to their growing collection, and for the Budget price and the high quality transfer I can easily say it's worth the price. Thanks for reading my lengthy review of American Ninja; I hope it helps in your decision.
As a whole I would say that The Prisoner was mildly entertaining, there were a lot of elements that I wanted to be deeper explored and I wanted thought out explanations, not just sloppy one or two sentences to explain a few chapters worth of going-ons. The Prisoner left me wanting to desire fulfillment, it didn't leave things unexplained involving Eliza Baynes, it's just that every explanation was just so blunt and fast that it left something to be desired. I can only recommend The Prisoner if you are a true Blair Witch fan, as most non-Blair Witch fans would probably be lost and would laugh at the bland pre-adolescent dialogue. Simply put, The Prisoner only slightly provided a sense of satisfaction upon completion and I can only recommend that fans of the Blair Witch Project check into it. I hope my review will help you in your decision on The Prisoner, whether you pass or buy, thanks for reading.
It's been a while since I've read a "Buffy" novel but this one was a pleasant revisitation to the series and I found it to be a nice change from the general Demon or Vampire going ons in Hellmouth. This novel takes the series into a new dilemma of a Tarot deck and to my knowledge has never been explored by the series thus far, so it was fun to have a change. The characters are essentially the same and Giles role is to a minimum as well, but this is actually a good thing as it spends more time devoted to everyone in general and never really just sets on following the adventures of one particular person. Doomsday Deck is a well written novel that is short and to the point, not taking it's time with much character development or inane dialogue and corny one-liners to fill it's pages, no Doomsday Deck has a goal and it finishes it in a minimal amount of time, which can be for the better or worse. I actually liked the idea of a shorter novel as it helped me finish the novel quicker and the amount of satisfaction was the same. Gallagher did sum this whole Slayer venture quickly and efficiently and accomplishes a fine story that stays true to what the characters personality is and how they might handle a situation in the TV series without going on and on for a good 300 pages. Not that 300 page novels are bad it's just fun to be able to find a "Buffy" adventure that tells an original story and has some nice action sequences and can complete its goal in a relatively short amount of time.
Doomsday Deck is a fine novel that I'm sure "Buffy" fans would get a kick out of and I see no reason why a general reader would not enjoy it as well. I can easily recommend this novel to just about anyone; the only downfall one may find is its lack of length (193 Pages to be exact), but other than that slight fault it should be a novel you would be pleased to read, I know I was. I honestly hope this helps in your decision on purchasing this novel whether you pass or buy, thanks for reading.
As for the DVD, Anchor Bay has done another fine job restoring a lost 80's classic. The only feature is a trailer, which is more like a teaser, but is superbly crafted and is made of the highest quality, it's very convincing, very dark, and I personally do not see how it didn't sell the film well. The picture is in 1.85:1 widescreen ratio, and is excellent, no blotches, no streaks, no cracks, and the colors are well divided and very vibrant. My only complaint was the sound, if they would have done a 3.0 surrond, or even a 2.0 Stereo remix, the effect of many "BOO" scenes would have been much greater as oppose to Mono. But still the dialogue and sound effects are distinguishable from each other and do not blend. Plus you get a mini theatrical one-sheet inside the package.
Overall, I highly reccomend "Return to Horror High". Some may get confused by the ending, but I feel it's from a lack of paying attention, because I understood the ending just fine, but if you pay attention and listen carefully during the last 10 minutes, everything should make sense. Once again, Anchor Bay has provided us with another great classic and given it a nice transfer, plus a very reasonable price. All horror fans should enjoy this one, as well as film buffs, if you feel weary about his one because of the mixed reviews, then I suggest a rental, and then decide. I hope this helped in making your final decision, whether you buy or pass. Thanks for reading.
As for the DVD itself, nothing special here, just a poorly edited trailer, not even a booklet! The sound is below standard, whether it's just the way the master was recorded or the remix was poor, I can't tell. But I do know that it isn't consistent and is hard to make out what the actors are saying because the sound effects and dialogue are blended together. The picture quality is slightly above VHS quality, as the picture is very blotchy and white streaks peirce the screen momentarily, it appears as thought they didn't even digitally master it, let alone bleach it. Plus a few scenes are dark and are hard to make out.
Overall, I was rather disappointed with "Making the Grade", the film and DVD. This is an exact example of how even actors can not save a film from disaster, but they can prevent total failure and shed some light on an otherwise dull film. I feel that should they had a better, more indepth script, they could have had a memorable teen flick. I can only recomend this film if you enjoy 80's teen comedies, like Judd Nelson, or are compelled by the price, which isn't bad and saves this one from a total waste. But saying that, don't expect a lot. For those of you who do not fit under either of these categories, I suggest you pass and try "Slackers". Thanks for reading, I hope this helped in making your decision, enjoy.
I feel that the people who would enjoy this novel the most are those who are fans of "Titan A.E.", for those who enjoy Science Fiction stories, and for young ones, as there is no real offensive language and almost no violence. Though fans of either of the above mentioned may feel that it's to kiddie to be taken seriously and many may want to laugh at some of the dialogue. Overall, I did enjoy "Akima's Story", and you may enjoy it as well if you keep an open mind. Thanks for reading.
"Idle Hands" is a superbly crafted film that unfortunately bombed at the box-office (though I don't see why it bombed) and in a few years will probably become a cult-classic. "Idle Hands" is a solid buy, the special features are great and so is the price.
"From Hell" is up with Bennett Salvay's "Jeepers Creepers" as my favorite scores of 2001. Why it's one of my favorite scores of 2001 is because Trevor Jones composed a diverse and unique mixture of suspense and calmness to create an excellent score, instead of conforming with the typical jolting horror score, now don't get me wrong, I love the jolting scores that are essential to a horror film, I just think it's good to have a change. "From Hell" is a must for fans of the film and for those who like horror scores, and even those who just like instrumental music will probably enjoy it as well.

So you're interested in making homemade soap? Homemade lavender soap is a unique baby gift idea.
If you'd like to learn how to make homemade soap you're in luck. You'll find an unlimited supply of online resources. If you've never made soap before, a kit will make it easy for you to try out the process and get a good feel for everything involved in this fun and unique activity.
Homemade baby soap is a gentle alternative to its store-bought counterpart. Making homemade lavender or chamomile soap is the perfect homemade baby gift project and would make a nice addition to a natural baby gift basket. A mild unscented soap for baby is usually best. But, considering the unique aromatherapeutic properties of lavender and chamomile, they'll be your best bet if you'd like a scented baby soap.
Keep in mind that homemade soap will not be "tear-free". But did you know that no baby wash is actually tear free? They simply add a numbing agent that takes the "sting", so to speak, out of it. In reality the ingredients are no different than the body wash marketed for adults.
I am really happy with the customer service and selection of soap making supplies at Brambleberry.com. They have both liquid soap bases, as well as the Melt & Pour variety. The Organic Melt and Pour Base probably be most suitable for a baby since it is so pure and natural. But over all, any of the bases would be better than the mass-manufactured alternative. They also carry the lavender essential oil as well as chamomile if you'd like to add them for the scent and the nice calming properties.
If you discover that making homemade soap is a hobby you would like to pursue in-depth you will find SoapMakingForum.com (link below) to be a fabulous resource as you are starting out. It's a community message board for soap making, candle making and other crafts. Join today and share recipes, ideas and meet new friends.

On what brought him back to WWE: "Well, Brock Lesnar made the decision to go back to WWE and once he got back in I guess he realized that it's the same boat that it was 10 years ago with all the politics and everything. If you're going to get involved with a whole bunch of politics obviously you need your New York Jew along with you. It was a matter of Brock going back and then it was just a natural fit for me to go back with him. Once I was in there, the first person that obviously I let know I was coming back was CM Punk, who is the person that I was fighting with Vince McMahon over back in 2006 when I decided to leave. So it became a natural fit for us to get back together as well and it just took off from there."
On the differences between working with C.M. Punk and Brock Lesnar: "It's two totally different relationships. My job with CM Punk differs dramatically from my job with Brock Lesnar. It's very easy for me to talk about Brock Lesnar because I am Brock Lesnar's biggest fan, and how could I not be? The man is legitimately the only person in history to hold the NCAA Division I Heavyweight Championship, the Undisputed UFC Heavyweight Championship and the Undisputed WWE Heavyweight Championship. I could talk about him all day long; I am such an admirer of his talents and his greatness and I think the world of him as a human being. As far as CM Punk goes, to be very honest with you, we've never defined my role with him on television; I don't refer to him as my client because we're just friends. We are best friends and we wanted to work together on television. We wanted to work together in front of everybody and so we just did it. I'm there for whatever he needs me to be; whether that's as a confidant or a strategist or be ring side with him when he's wrestling or just hang out with him in the ring and admire him from a close distance when he's actually speaking, because I think he's a better talker than I am. I think CM Punk does the best interviews in the industry, and I'm actually learning from him when I'm standing that close."
On what he saw in C.M. Punk that others in WWE didn't: "It's not that I think I have this great vision for CM Punk, I think everybody else was just blind to it and that's to their discredit more than it's to my credit. I saw a Wrestlemania main eventer. I saw a WWE Champion. I saw a guy that could single handedly carry this industry. He's a rock star; I mean, this guy walks in a room, how do you not just feel the charisma entering? When he walked in here just now, and half these guys are asleep as you can see, and all of a sudden it was like a big jolt of coffee. The guy just has that intangible "it" factor, and he's talented and he's a great wrestler and he has passion for this industry. So, what did I see in him? I saw everything in him. The fact that the other people didn't see that from the moment he walked in their doors is a cry for change."
On why Punk wasn't seen as the next big thing: "He's not cookie cutter. He doesn't want to be cookie cutter. He refuses to be cookie cutter and he will rebel against anything that makes him cookie cutter. So if everyone comes on television and they say the very same thing, 'it's an honor to be here, I put smiles on people's faces,' the first thing he's going to say is, 'I don't put smiles on people's faces, I put frowns on people's faces; I make you not like me.' And others go, 'well, that's not what we say.' And he says, 'Yeah, but that's what I say,' and all of a sudden he's a malcontent, but every great superstar has been trouble. Think it was easy for Vince's father to deal with Bruno Sanmartino? Think it was easy for Vince to deal with Hulk Hogan? Think it was easy for Vince to deal with Stone Cold Steve Austin? The only guy that was easy to deal with was Bob Backlund and he bored everybody to sleep."
On the current state of pro wrestling: "I'm happy with my position within the state of pro wrestling. It's a very interesting weekend to ask me that question, because we're sitting here, 48 hours outside of a show that's going to generate $100 million in revenue, so it's kind of hard for me to knock the state of pro wrestling. I grew up in the territorial days where if MSG sold out, the territory was doing fine. So, to see here on radio row with 24 interviews to do and satellite TV down the hallway and $100 million in revenue being generated by one show, if I knock the state of pro wrestling today then I'm just an unappreciative prick. When I was a kid they didn't generate $100 million in one show, let alone on the weekend where they've got the Hall of Fame as well, they've got Monday Night Raw which is sold out, so how do I knock it? So anything that I don't like about it I should just shut the F up because I'm going to come off like an idiot. No matter what the answer is, they drew $100 million in one day. Ok, doing better than I am."
On Brock Lesnar: "Brock Lesnar hates human beings. Period. That's it. Doesn't like people. He lives on a compound in what I like to call Texas Chainsaw Massacre Minnesota. You cannot find his address on a GPS. He lives off two dirt roads and it's a compound. His mail is delivered to his attorney's office in Minneapolis, they sort through it and then when they see him they hand him the rest of his mail. That's it. He does not like people and he wants to be left alone and that's what drives him. That's what makes him Brock Lesnar. There's a lot to be afraid of with Brock Lesnar. He's a violent man living in a violent society and it's a society that couldn't handle him if he decided to conquer it."
On Brock returning to WWE despite scathing remarks in his book: "It was a pretty big shock to me that he was willing to do it. I wrote the book with him and you should have seen the stuff that they made us edit... (Continues on next page)

Toolbar PR update is also reported in another separate thread.
I would be grateful if the more experienced ones can offer their opinions on what this refresh is all about. I for one am happy, but how is it affecting everyone overall? My own couple sites have seen traffic quadruple.
Also one more question - a site really cant be worth the 100th page of SERPs on sep 29th, and worth top position on sep 30th. That just is not right, especially when I am talking about a site which has been completely whitehat, adds 10 plus pages a day, and is widely linked to naturally. If natural content sites can bounce so much in SERPs (meaning they could be on some fine line they accidentally reached and a little tweak somewhere throws it all off), I shudder to think what the data refreshes must be doing to your average online merchant or corporate website.

Using Apex to retrieve RSS Feeds
I was rather glad to see a question come up on the the Salesforce StackExchange about how to load data from RSS into custom objects, as it was one of the few times that I could offer a complete solution without setting aside a couple hours to test out some new code (not that I mind doing that, any good excuse to write some Apex for a few hours…). As it happens, I was already doing this internally to help our team of crack evangelists track blog posts. Continue reading

Developers getting Cloudy – Force.com & Heroku developer communities growing across Europe
The goal of fast application development using the Salesforce platform is very appealing and the latest release has attracted over 800,000 developers.
Heroku (part of the Salesforce family) is also attracting a lot of attention. By allowing developers to deploy their applications live with a simple git push command, it helps make continuous deployment a reality.
These are just two of the reasons I took the opportunity to join the amazing team at salesforce.com. So you can imagine I was overjoyed when I started as Developer Advocate for EMEA. Here is what that role is all about.

Obama Will Nominate Jeh Johnson To Head Homeland Security
President Obama will nominate attorney Jeh Johnson to be the next Homeland Security secretary.
Johnson recently served as the Pentagon's top lawyer.
Obama will announce his pick at 2 p.m. Friday, NPR's Scott Horsley tells us.
The Department of Homeland Security is currently without a leader. Former Secretary Janet Napolitano ended her stint six weeks ago. She left to become the president of the University of California system.
ABC News has a bit on Johnson's background:
"For most of Obama's first term, Johnson served as the Defense Department's general counsel, reviewing and approving military operations before they were sent to the Defense Secretary and president for final decisions.
"Johnson has called working for the Obama administration 'the highlight of [his] professional life.'
"'I have been on an incredible journey with Barack Obama ... going back to November 2006 when he recruited me to the presidential campaign he was about to launch,' Johnson said in a speech at Yale Law School last year. 'I remember thinking then, 'This is a long-shot, but it will be exciting, historic, and how many times in my life will someone personally ask me to help him become president.""
On this blog, we covered Johnson back in 2012, when he delivered a legal defense of the administration's targeted killing program.
Johnson argued that the use of lethal force against the enemy is a "long-standing and long-legal practice."

The Gunners fell behind to Carlton Cole's goal early in the second half but rallied to win 3-1 thanks to a brace from Theo Walcott and a late strike from the returning Lukas Podolski.
The result took Arsenal back to the top of the Premier League as Liverpool lost to Manchester City, and Wenger acknowledged after the match that his team would have been criticised if they had missed such a chance.
Asked whether his side had answered some big questions, Wenger said on the club's official website: "Yes. I agree and would we not have won we would have had to answer many questions today.
"That was a kind of game that of course many people would have questioned us had we not won today and even more if we had lost."
Wenger believes Arsenal have shown that they have the fighting spirit to sustain their form, although they face a tough game away to in-form Newcastle United on Sunday.
Questioned on whether his team had proved they were title contenders, Wenger added: "Yes. For us we have another good game now on Sunday at Newcastle who are in full confidence as well so that will be another test.
"The team wants to do well and the character is great. The concentration is top. I believe we had a difficult period just now but honestly that was mainly down to the schedule we had.
"I think that the schedule was absolutely horrendous but we can show that in the future."
Wenger was also delighted to end a tricky run without a victory and hopes Arsenal will now be able to build some momentum going into the second half of the season.
"When you do not win for four games it's important to come back for the confidence level of your environment and yourself as well to win."
Great comeback performance by the Gunners. I was particularly impressed with Podolski, he looks very sharp and will hopefully he'll stay fit enough to keep Bendtner on the bench. That being said, Arsenal will not win the title this year, they rarely deliver the goods against the top sides and the premier league has become so competitive now that you have to win those games to be crowned champion.- paulino971

Are you working to ditch processed foods and put more real food on the table? We're running a series called Real Food Made Simple: A Beginner's Guide to Eating Better. Our goal is to answer the questions you might have and make the transition a whole lot easier!
Even before I started cooking from scratch, I started making my own homemade spice mixes.
At first, it was out of pure laziness. I don't like to shop. Even before I had kids, I didn't like to run out to the grocery store for an item or two on my ingredient list if I could avoid it. And, hence, I started making things at home.
The very first spice mix for me to make on my own was taco seasoning. I think back then I googled a recipe, and when I realized I had all the ingredients on hand, I was elated.
The next time I was at the store, I checked the ingredient list on the back of the taco seasoning mix I normally purchased. Surely the ingredients would be the same, right?
The food labels on the bulk of store-bought seasoning mixes are full of fillers, preservatives and other unwanted fake flavor enhancers. These ingredients include:
- modified food starch (a thickener, often derived from GMO sources but not always),
- sugar,
- partially hydrogenated vegetable oils (trans fat and often made from a GMO oil sources, such as cottonseed, canola or soybean),
- MSG (including "hidden" MSG under other names)
- hidden gluten (dangerous for those with a gluten intolerance or celiac disease)
- natural flavorings (So what's the big deal here? Read this.)
- silicon dioxide (to prevent caking--not necessarily bad but an additive to know about nonetheless)
- spices (This sounds innocent...but what exactly are these anonymous "spices"?),
- and more.
After learning that store-bought spice mixes aren't always so wholesome, I committed to making my seasonings at home--for both convenience and health reasons.
How to Make Your Own
Seriously, making your own spice mixes is probably the easiest kitchen task you will ever do.
Supplies Needed:
- single ingredient herbs and spices
- measuring spoons
- glass jars (Depending on how much you want to mix up, anything from an old baby food jar to a canning jar will work.)
Simply combine all the individual spices together in a jar, shake the jar and--voila!--you have your spice mixes!
I have sometimes gotten in the rut of making just what I needed per meal at the time I am cooking. This is inconvenient and tags extra time onto dinner prep. I now mix up a whole canning jar at once, label the top with the ingredients needed to fill the jar as well as with the amounts needed in recipes I make frequently.
But what if you don't have all the single-ingredient herbs and spices?
No problem! Check out this handy list of herb and spice substitutions.
Homemade Spice Mixes
And now, the moment you've been waiting for: check out this full line-up of homemade spice mixes! I've also included some recipes that call for these mixes. Your family will thank you for never entering the spice mix aisle of the grocery store again!

Two other helpful resources for all things homemade, including many condiments, sauce and more are the recipe ebooks Easy. Homemade. and also Restocking the Pantry.
Note: Even some single-ingredient spices contain hidden fillers! Be sure to carefully read the food labels and call the manufacturer if necessary. Many health food stores and co-ops sell spices in bulk. The Bulk Herb Store and Mountain Rose Herbs are two online stores that sell quality herbs and spices.

A jQuery plugin that enables HTML5 placeholder behavior for browsers that aren't trying hard enough yet

HTML5 Placeholder jQuery Plugin
Demo & Examples
Example Usage
<input type="text" name="name" placeholder="e.g. John Doe">
<input type="email" name="email" placeholder="e.g. firstname.lastname@example.com">
<input type="url" name="url" placeholder="e.g. http://mathiasbynens.be/">
<input type="tel" name="tel" placeholder="e.g. +32 472 77 69 88">
<input type="password" name="password" placeholder="e.g. h4x0rpr00fz">
<input type="search" name="search" placeholder="Search this site…">
<textarea name="message" placeholder="Your message goes here"></textarea>
Use the plugin as follows:
$('input, textarea').placeholder();
You'll still be able to use jQuery#val()
to get and set the input values. If the element is currently showing a placeholder, .val()
will return an empty string instead of the placeholder text, just like it does in browsers with a native @placeholder
implementation. Calling .val('')
to set an element's value to the empty string will result in the placeholder text (re)appearing.
The plugin automatically adds class="placeholder"
to the elements who are currently showing their placeholder text. You can use this to style placeholder text differently:
input, textarea { color: #000; }
.placeholder { color: #aaa; }
I'd suggest sticking to the #aaa
color for placeholder text, as it's the default in most browsers that support @placeholder
. If you really want to, though, you can style the placeholder text in some of the browsers that natively support it.
You can install jquery-placeholder by using Bower.
bower install jquery-placeholder
- Requires jQuery 1.6+. For an older version of this plugin that works under jQuery 1.4.2+, see v1.8.7.
- Works in all A-grade browsers, including IE6.
- Automatically checks if the browser natively supports the HTML5
attribute forinput
elements. If this is the case, the plugin won't do anything. If@placeholder
is only supported forinput
elements, the plugin will leave those alone and apply totextarea
s exclusively. (This is the case for Safari 4, Opera 11.00, and possibly other browsers.) - Caches the results of its two feature tests in
. For example, if@placeholder
is natively supported forinput
will betrue
. After loading the plugin, you can re-use these properties in your own code. Makes sure it never causes duplicate IDs in your DOM, even in browsers that need an extra
element to fake@placeholder
for password inputs. This means you can safely do stuff like:<label for="bar">Example label</label> <input type="password" placeholder="foo" id="bar">
And the
will always point to the<input>
element you'd expect. Also, all CSS styles based on the ID will just work™.
This plugin is available under the MIT license.

Computation of Minimal Counterexamples by Using Black Box Techniques and Symbolic Methods
Citations: | 2 - 2 self |

title = {Computation of Minimal Counterexamples by Using Black Box Techniques and Symbolic Methods},
year = {}
Abstract — Computing counterexamples is a crucial task for error diagnosis and debugging of sequential systems. If an implementation does not fulfill its specification, counterexamples are used to explain the error effect to the designer. In order to be understood by the designer, counterexamples should be simple, i.e. they should be as general as possible and assign values to a minimal number of input signals. Here we use the concept of Black Boxes — parts of the design with unknown behavior — to mask out components for counterexample computation. By doing so, the resulting counterexample will argue about a reduced number of components in the system to facilitate the task of understanding and correcting the error. We introduce the notion of 'uniform counterexamples' to provide an exact formalization of simplified counterexamples arguing only about components which were not masked out. Our computation of counterexamples is based on symbolic methods using AIGs (And-Inverter-Graphs). Experimental results using a VLIW processor as a case study clearly demonstrate our capability of providing simplified counterexamples. I.
