Olympus E-P3: AF speed and responsiveness
Olympus E-P3 was introduced on 30th of June. As name says it is the third version in E-P series which I use. I am interested because Olympus promises now to correct the slow AF which hampered previous models. All in all the responsivity of this camera should be at a totally new level.
I created a simple test arrangement to get a real world understanding on E-P3´s AF speed. A sat at a table with my elbows leaning on table. On the others side of table I had a newspaper (at 1m distance) and directly behind there´s a plant across the room at 5m distance. I set both E-P3 and E-P2 to do single-AF at a press of shutter button AND shutter is activated only after focusing is done. Other settings: Program AE, ISO 400, single shot mode, medium JPG, only center focusing spot active.
Now I aimed focusing spot at newspaper and pressed shutter button until camera focuses and shutter goes, aimed focusing spot at plant and pressed shutter button until camera focuses and shutter goes, aimed focusing spot towards newspaper and pressed… I went on doing this until I counted 75 shots. The number 75 is not important. The point was to make enough shots so that slight differences between each single shots become averaged when shooting with both cameras. I repeated the same drill for four lenses:
1) The new Olympus m4/3 kit zoom lens 14-42mm 1:3.5-5.6 II R. Tested at 42mm focal length.
2) Olympus m4/3 zoom lens 40-150mm 1:4-5.6. Tested at 50mm focal length.
3) Olympus 4/3 zoom lens 12-60mm 1:2.8-4 with Novoflex m4/3 adapter. Tested at 50mm focal length.
4) Panasonic Lumix G 20mm 1:1.7
Then I looked into EXIF data of first and last shot of each series to see the time difference between them. I divided this time by number of shots to get the average time for aiming camera and focusing and exposing each shot.
These are my results:
E-P3 E-P2 E-P3 is faster by
1) 0,82s 1,41s 42%
2) 0,89s 1,46s 39%
3) 1,96s 2,26s 13%
4) 0,87s 1,54s 44%
I have no way to know how long it took to aim the camera between each shot but it was not much. Just turned the camera a few degrees up or down. Olympus gives a shutter response time of ONLY 60ms for E-P3. My conclusion is that E-P3 is in practise twice as responsive camera as E-P2. With older 4/3 system DSLR lenses the lens is the restricting factor. I would guess that these lenses would benefit of a new firmware for m4/3 bodies.
So how responsive E-P3 is then? Olympus claims it to be the fastest focusing camera of all system cameras. Lets see!
I repeated the same test with Nikon D3x and three Nikon lenses:
5) AF-S Micro Nikkor 105mm 1:2.8 G
6) AF Nikkor 85mm 1:1.4 D
7) AF-S Nikkor 14-24mm 1:2.8 G. Tested at 24mm focal length.
5) 0,97s
6) 1,15s
7) 0,70s
Results for differences between these three lenses are logical and should be familiar to everyone who has used them. Wide angle zoom 14-24mm is fast because there the distance to move focusing element is so short. Other than that look at E-P3! E-P3 is faster (with three consumer grade lenses) than Nikon. It´s responsiveness is up (or should I say down) there with a super fast professional DSLR with 10 fold price tag!
Same test with the new Olympus M. Zuiko 12mm 1:2.0 lens. This lens is Olympus´ first lens that which they consider as belonging to the top level in their three level lens grading.
Test result with E-P3 0,74s. E-P2 was not tested because speed difference is already known.
Already while testing the new kit zoom lens I was somewhat distracted by Live View refresh rate. Live View goes off and back on with each image, as sensor is reseted before and after exposure. (I did not have record view on, just viewfinder image). With this 12mm lens, it is quite obvious that now the restricting factor is not focusing but other functions of camera. Mere focusing back and forth is a lot faster, also faster than Nikon 14-24mm. With this lens focusing is done immediately as you press the button. How ever, this result tells how fast you can take two consecutive images with varying focusing distances. Focusing is very fast but the responsivity of a Live View camera like E-P3 is not yet quite there with a professional reflex camera like D3x.

American investors hoping to make bid for Cirrus
Speaking by phone Thursday from his office in Sparta, N.J., aviation industry analyst Brian Foley said he has received numerous inquiries from people interested in helping to buy Cirrus.By: Peter Passi, Duluth News Tribune
Two weeks after news broke that Cirrus Aircraft would be sold to Chinese interests, a group of would-be investors has mounted an effort to make a counteroffer that would bring ownership of the company back into domestic hands.
Brian Foley, an aviation industry analyst who is spearheading the drive for ownership of the Duluth-based airplane maker, said the initiative began innocently enough with a piece he published last week.
"It was about why China might now be buying American general aviation companies. It was an innocuous analysis piece. But after its publication, I started getting all this feedback about what a shame it was that a U.S.-born-and-bred company could be going overseas," Foley said.
Cirrus CEO Brent Wouters has offered assurances that there are no plans to move the company's airplane production out of Duluth. But Foley recognized that the pending sale had struck a nerve and began to toy with the idea of an alternative. He found people were quite receptive.
On Tuesday he wrote: "Cirrus is an American success story that started in a humble dairy barn, introduced important new technologies and rocketed to market leadership. So it's not surprising that our U.S. aviation community would take an interest in this pending sale.
"But what surprised me was the speed, passion and near-unanimity of the feedback we received. I didn't talk to anyone who wanted to see Cirrus shipped overseas. People wanted this company to be owned and operated on American soil, period."
Foreign ownership doesn't necessarily put Duluth jobs in peril. Cirrus' current majority owner, Arcapita Inc., an investment arm of the First Islamic Bank of Bahrain, acquired a 58 percent stake in the company for about $100 million in 2001, and has not significantly outsourced work.
Speaking by phone Thursday from his office in Sparta, N.J., Foley said he has received numerous inquiries from people interested in helping to buy Cirrus. Foley said he even talked to an entity very interested in buying the company single-handedly.
But a group effort remains a real possibility, as well, according to Foley.
"We don't necessarily need one sugar daddy. Maybe there is strength in numbers," he said, noting that a number of people with substantial wherewithal, experience and passion have expressed interest in being part of an investment group that could make a bid for Cirrus.
Although the financial details of Cirrus' pending sale to China Aviation Industry General Aircraft Co. have not been publicly disclosed, Foley anticipates the company could fetch north of $200 million. That may sound like a daunting sum, but Foley believes it's doable, based on the encouraging response he has received so far.
But before would-be investors can put together an offer, Foley said they would need to obtain more detailed information about the company and its operations. He contacted Cirrus on Tuesday but so far has received no response.
Calls to the company Thursday by the Duluth News Tribune were not returned either.
"I'm hoping we will hear from Cirrus or Arcapita soon. I would think they'd be delighted to learn they have another potential offer on the table," he said.
Still, Foley said prospective investors will need more information before they can proceed.
"A counteroffer can't be put together without Cirrus' cooperation," he said. "The next move is theirs."

A categorization I like to use is 'double rolls' on gear. For instance: inna's belt with over 101 dex is a double roll on dex. So if price one with 140 dex set dex to 101 to only show double rolled belts. You'll see pricing curves at these thresholds. Check out inna's chest above and below 200 vita for a clear threshold.
AH Selling rate is low, Help?
#22 12/13/2012 7:57:35 PMPeople won't drop a lot of gold for common gear that might be a side grade at best. I've got a stash load of gear that has great stats, but because they aren't the PERFECT item with the best possible rolls, people won't pay top dollar for it.
The best thing you can do if you don't know the market is, do a similiar search, find what others are going for and undercut them by at least 15%, if it doesn't sell, re-list it at an even lower price. I rinse and repeat that about 4-5 times and if it doesn't sell, it either gets vendored, posted in general chat for anyone who has best offer and if I still have it by then, It gets vendored or handed down to a friend. It's annoying but the market really is flooded with crap these days,Rollback Post to Revision RollBack -
#23 12/13/2012 9:49:36 PMA lot of stuff in the game is so common that even if you sell it for 50% less than the bottom price, it still might not sell. If that's the case, just vendor it.
When checking prices, make sure to check for items with -10% or -15% of your exact stats so you get a better picture. Sometimes you might find few items with your stats and you might think it's worth more than it really is.
But if you're pricing things right - i.e. garbage/common items should be priced 50% of the bottom price, especially if the bottom price has been on the AH for a few hours - then you should just vendor it if it does not sell.
You might think you'll lose money with this strategy, but at least you're going to sell everything that could have sold, and you won't be wasting AH tabs for better things down the road. You will also have a pretty clean stash.
If you find something good, don't use this exact strategy of course.Rollback Post to Revision RollBack -
#24 12/13/2012 10:43:12 PMWhen you go to sell something, remember... it's there because it HASN'T sold at that price. So if it's got under a day left and 0 bids, that item was overpriced and you should set your price lower.Rollback Post to Revision RollBack
#25 12/18/2012 8:18:15 AMRule Number 1: If item don't sell, lower the price for 20%.

#27 12/18/2012 8:22:19 AMAnother tip is, re-place your items onto the AH every 1-2 hour, so to keep them always showing 1day 11hours. This can significantly increase your chance of selling it.Rollback Post to Revision RollBack
#28 12/18/2012 8:26:15 AMFinally, I think BLZ AH is flawed, so never go with a low starting bid in the auction, you will get lowballed in most time, or if your item auction ends in the middle of maintenance shutdown, then somebody can win the bid at very low price.Rollback Post to Revision RollBack
#29 12/18/2012 8:44:56 AMI've got no clue about the SC AH but the advantage of the HC AH is that people die and need new gear ;-)

Hey ya everyone! I've been running into a problem as of late. I have 5 toons full of stuff to sell and two bank tabs but I can only seem to sell maybe one item a day, and it's making me wonder if I am pricing things wrong.
What I do is check all my rares and see if they will sell for at minimum 100k and trash the rest (vendor), the items I do want to sell I will do the right click search and see what I could get for similar items and I sort by the buy out price lowest and set a buy out for half that price and then half that for the bid.
Example: I have an item that looks like it could sell for around 200k, I list it for 100k BO and 50k bid.
90% of items time out and never get sold.
So I'm wondering if it's the wrong items I'm trying to unload or this pricing system I'm using is not working and the items I'm trying to sell are actually work even less than what I see on the market.
Any help is appreciated.
I have the same problem, and this is what I've concluded about the situation...
1. The player-base has a World of Warcraft mentality. It's either the best gear possible, or no gear at all. Basically the gear your selling needs to have 100% awesome rolls with zero wasted stats or someone won't want it. I've gotten legendaries with amazing stats on them. But when I offer to sell it in trade chat, people laugh and tell me they won't pay that price for such a piece of crap weapon (I'm talking as low as 50k gold.) So I've come to the conclusion that if it's not considered "best in slot", then no one will want it.
2. You might find an item that has awesome stats on it, and try to sell it for 1 million gold.... But there is someone out there that will have pretty much the same exact stats, or even slightly better ones, that will sell it for 900k gold. Then someone comes along to undercut him with even better stats for 800k gold. That's the problem with having one unified auction house for an entire country. If anything, they should break the AH's up into 3 or 4 seperate AH's for each timezone or something.
Those are my conclusions.Rollback Post to Revision RollBack -

#33 12/18/2012 4:26:51 PMJust adding another voice to the crowd, but yes, my AH experience is very similar to yours. I'm not sure it can be helped, really. I remember when the game was new that it was actually rather easy to sell things (even a completely casual player like myself could get by selling not perfect things). Now you need something very close to perfect.Rollback Post to Revision RollBack
#34 12/18/2012 4:54:39 PMI havent seen the suggestion to sell on weekends... Friday I usually do a few normal runs at MP10 in HC to get a load of mainstat/vit items around level 20-30. Takes me 1h to fill up, most of it sell for 50k-100k, but only on weekends, guess there are more people playing then. So give or take 2mio, which usually buys me something nicer...Rollback Post to Revision RollBack
#35 12/19/2012 12:16:50 AMI am also finding it increasingly difficult to sell anything on the AH.... I'm sure that a dwindling player base has a lot to do with it. It certainly makes it a very slow and quite frustrating process to try and upgrade...Rollback Post to Revision RollBack
#36 12/19/2012 1:49:02 PMAt the risk of sounding pedantic: The solution to the problem of AH items not selling is simple. Reduce your prices and items, keep moving the price down, and eventually you will find a level that matches demand. If you find that point is below the artificial gold (vendor value) floor or that the process takes up too much of your time (ex. spending three hours modifying prices to realize a net gain of 10k gold) to be economically efficient, then you simply stop listing items of that stripe.
There's nothing inherently mysterious about the market and the basics remain constant.Rollback Post to Revision RollBack -
#37 12/19/2012 3:12:10 PM@proletaria,
You are right, of course but I think the discussion is a fair bit more complex..... The (subtle) point I was making is that as the player base dwindles, demand dries up and prices of the goodies I am finding is falling. Therefore it is taking a lot more time to generate in game gold compared to 3-6 weeks ago. Now, by rights, economic theory suggests that high end (BiS) item prices should also start to fall to meet the lack of gold being generated... BUT the fly in the ointment is that I think botters have seriously distorted the market place to the point that there is now a 2 tier market - the "haves" and the "have nots". Botters are generating enough gold (including great legendary drops) to be able to trade amongst themselves whilst the peeps (like me) struggle through requiring enormous hours to progress by very incremental margins! It was great to see the ban wave yesterday, lets hope it helps even the playing field, but I wonder how much damage is already done?
I am one of those tenacious types, so I'll keep grinding my way through but the vast majority of players are not as persistent and that imho is why we are seeing a very serious drop off in player numbers....Rollback Post to Revision RollBack -

While the discussion can become infinitely complex, with the addition of as many market variables as you can imagine, the point was that in practice it doesn't have to be so. If you took the time to map out every possible shift in supply and demand before you placed a bid or posted an auciton, you'd quickly find yourself spending days on end agonizing over every exchange. That is a fine thing to do on the macro scale, if you want to do so, but for the player who is simply wondering how to offload their stuff for gold, there's little point in delving so deep into the morass.
If I am to understand you correctly, your claim is that "BiS," items are rising in price while the price of nearly all other goods is falling. You view this as a failure of the market; a division into "haves and have nots," but like the socialist mantra you're echoing, it simply doesn't retain water. The demand for item X, as a best in slot item, is going to remain strong despite it's short supply becoming slightly greater over time. It trends this way because it is the effective ceiling on the asset side of the equation. Since there is no similar ceiling on the gold side, item X can freely fetch whatever people are willing to pay for it. The other items, ones with less than perfect stats, are in an almost endless supply, and it is therefor logical that their value will free-fall, especially with the expansion of the gold supply and the improvements in drop rate on the very high end. Over the long haul, regardless of player retention, the demand for better and better items is going to trend with the demand. If, as you insist, many players are priced out of a market they want to be in, then prices will fall as supply inexorably rises.
If what you say about botters is true, that they dump huge amounts of gold and high end items into the economy, then their effect on the economy to the average consumer who does not bot is largely neutral, if not beneficial. Botters are not violating any of the laws of supply and demand, they are simply a reaction to demand out-pacing supply. If players didn't want all those high end items, then there would be not botters. Similarly, due to the presence of so many botters, their items are constantly pushing value towards equilibrium. In other words, if you are active on the market, it should please you to see so much competition. When there are so many seperate instances of orders attempting to unite supply and demand, the odds of guesstimating exactly where the two meet are much better.
I don't know what the figures are for player retention and frankly, it doesn't matter much in my view. So long as there are more players than one, there will be a functional marketplace and that market will be governed chiefly by supply and demand. Any attempt to "level the playing field," in a meaningful sense would simply void the necessity of the market. Some people are going to input much more time and effort (and I include the risky business of botting in this arithmetic, although I do not endorse the practice) to realize their economic goals and that is always going to be the case.
In sum, if the goal is to make the most of your game time on the AH, there's very little point in getting angry at the natural forces of the market. Understand the basics and the rest begins to make much more sense.Rollback Post to Revision RollBack -

Recipe by Chef John
"Green garlic, as I've come to learn relatively late in life, makes one heck of a good soup. It's flavor, once simmered slowly with potatoes and a bit of pork, is somewhere right in the middle between raw garlic and sweet caramelized onions."
Watch video tips and tricks
4 russet potatoes, peeled and chopped into equal-sized chunks
3 cups chopped green garlic, white and light green parts only
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 ounces minced prosciutto
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
1 quart chicken broth, or more as needed
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives for garnish (optional)
Green Garlic is VERY hard to find but please please PLEASE go to the extra effort if you have local Farmer's Markets in your area. Stores to not typically sell it. Yes, it 'looks' like green onion but it's garlic. You can grow your own ~ I do. Easiest thing in the world. Buy a head of garlic at the store and peel the cloves then push cloves root side down into a pot of planting soil. Cram as many in as you can, they don't take up much room (leave an inch or so in-between cloves. Water when needed and very soon you'll see the shoots come up. Pull up shoot when about 1 foot tall and you'll have exactly what Chef John uses. Full sun is good for growing if you have a spot that gets it. If not, place the pot where it will get as much light or sun as possible (except in hot hot hot summer). Freezes well too in an airtight freezer bag. Love the stuff!! This soup is even more awesome when the green garlic is used. Do NOT substitute regular garlic...not the same at all......listen to his description of what Green Garlic tastes like. He's spot on. You'll be glad you did it!!
this is incredible soup!!! I am eating it right now and couldn't be happier!!! :D I know as written it deserves 5 stars, but I made some changes. I used green onions and a 1/4 of leftover white onion diced. I used 3 pieces of bacon chopped. I only used 2 and a half potatoes, but they were really big. I added roughly 2 teaspoons of cayenne because I like things spicy. I used a little more than half a cup of cream because I love it. I used lots of freshly ground black pepper and instead of chicken broth I just used salted and seasoned water. I am glad I left out the extra potato!! this is plenty thick, creamy, and delicious. Also, I only blended 3/4 of the chunks and used a masher on the others.. This is like heaven soup :) I will definitely make this again!!! it has so many possibilities!! Thank you chef John!! your video for this recipe is very funnily narrated :)

This soup is DELICIOUS! I don't taste any garlic though, unless I used the wrong thing. I used green onions, because that's exactly what they looked like in the video and I've never heard of green garlic. Anyway it's a truly warm and comfy soup, the only thing I might do differently next time is take Chef John's recommendation and add mushrooms, which sounds delicious, and add some garlic too. Also I used bacon, which added to the gloriousness of this soup. Kudos to Chef John! I've never made any of his recipes that I didn't like.
I used this recipe as an inspiration for using the remnants of what was in the freezer and pantry. Thanks for the ideas Chef John! Instead of prosciutto I used smoked sausage. The green garlic was replaced by garlic scapes which were in the freezer. Chicken stock was traded for stock that was saved from cooking pork ribs in the slow cooker. A few stray potatoes were rescued from the garden. I added one chopped onion and sauted it in oil with the smoked sausage. No need to add any spices since it was all in the broth and sausage. Then proceeded to follow the directions in the recipe, replacing cream with evaporated milk for a lower fat content. The result: amazingly fabulous! Sounds like a new recipe! And costs pennies to make. Very filling too.
Sadly, I couldn't find green garlic, so I had to substitute fresh garlic. The flavor in this soup is delicious (and I'm sure it'd be even better w/green garlic), but the texture is a bit off to me. My soup, following the directions to a "T", ended up much more watery than creamy (and I did not add any additional chicken stock). I think I'd like this even better garnished w/some crispy prosciutto! This was a perfect recipe for lazy-feeling-under-the-weather Sunday. THANKS for the recipe!

These trees were stored in specially designed, recyclable plastic tubes that included instructions for converting the tube into a bird feeder. A portion of the proceeds helped support the Foundation's tree-planting efforts. These packaged conifer seedlings were sold in their appropriate growing zones and were available in the floral department and gift aisles.

Table of Contents
Semi-Stable Version
The latest semi-stable version is always here: josm-tested.jar - we don't call it a "release" because while it is more robust than the nightly build, it doesn't usually run through as many checks as a release would.
Nightly Builds
You can always grab the latest nightly build from josm-latest.jar. Many users actually use this for their daily work.
A working Java Runtime Environment version 6.0 or newer is needed to run JOSM.
Microsoft Windows
Double click on the jar file.
If this does not work, you probably need to install the Java Runtime
In more extensive edit sessions, you may get an "out of memory" error. To avoid this, the assigned memory can be increased.
Create a shortcut like in the following example:
C:\WINNT\system32\java.exe -jar -Xmx512M "C:\PATH-TO-JOSM\josm-latest.jar"
To avoid the Java console windows stay open, you can use javaw.exe instead of java.exe.
Linux / *BSD
- packages
- In some Distributions prepacked packages exist to install JOSM with your favourite package manager from the repositories. Although these packages might be a bit older than the .jar files on the main page, they usually fit better into the environment and install dependencies and a starter in the menu automatically.
Note: There is no problem with installing the prepacked package and still using the .jar files listed above.
If there exists no package or you do not want to use it you can download the JOSM .jar file from the main page (tested or latest version) or build it from source.
- using the shell
Go to the directory where the josm-latest.jar is and type
to launch. Replace josm-latest.jar with the name of the jar file you loaded, e.G. josm.jar for releases.
java -jar josm-latest.jar
If this doesn't help, try to set your JAVA_HOME variable to the java location (the root location, not the bin. As example:
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/sun-j2se6.0-jdk java -jar ''josm.jar''
- There is a tutorial on how to setup your environment to start jar-files by clicking on them.
- Right click on the JAR file, and select Open with "Sun Java 6.0 Runtime", or whatever java version you have.
- XGL/Compiz
Type this into a shell:
as described here: http://kubasik.net/blog/index.php/2006/06/19/java-sun-150-and-xglcompiz-on-ubuntu/
export AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit && java -jar josm-test.jar
- Blank window on startup
- AWT before JDK7 doesn't play well with non-reparenting window managers (i.e. xmonad, awesome, dwm, ratpoison, Ion3, ...), resulting in the main window not being displayed properly on startup. The Awesome Wiki has workarounds for this problem. There is also an xmonad specific way of doing the wmname thing.
- If you have downloaded josm-latest.jar you can start JOSM by clicking on the josm-latest.jar file in the MacOS Finder (you might get the warning that you are about to open a file from the internet - just accept).
This way to start JOSM should be sufficient in most cases.
- If you are running Mountain Lion, you will need to temporarily disable Gatekeeper. Otherwise, you will be unable to open josm and upon launching josm, receive the error message "JOSM.app is damaged and can't be opened. You should move it to the Trash." Disable Gatekeeper by opening System Preferences > Security & Privacy, and setting 'Allow applications downloaded from:' to 'Anywhere'. Once you open the application, you can re-enable gatekeeper, and it appears that JOSM will open again without a problem. See this and #7904 for more information.
- However, if you need to start it up with additional Java parameter(s) (e.g. -Xmx512M) you can also use the MacOS "Terminal" and start JOSM (Java) manually:
Start the "Terminal" application (e.g. by typing "Terminal" into the Spotlight search)
- Now you have two options:
- type in the following command and press "Enter" to start JOSM without any special java options (simply starts up JOSM like under point 1):
Whereas "FOLDER" should be replaced by the name of the folder you have josm-latest.jar downloaded to. If you have downloaded it to the standard MacOS "Downloads" Folder it would look like:
java -jar FOLDER/josm-latest.jar
java -jar Downloads/josm-latest.jar
- to use additional java options just add them right after "java"
- type in the following command and press "Enter" to start JOSM without any special java options (simply starts up JOSM like under point 1):
If you for example have experienced the "Out of memory" warning (e.g. trying to load geo-tagged photos to JOSM) you would start JOSM like this:
java -Xmx256M -jar FOLDER/josm-latest.jar
This would allow JOSM to use up to 256 MB of RAM (memory). The java option "-Xmx256M" set's the maximum Java heap size to 265 MB. You are free to replace -Xmx256M by any number appropriate for your system (e.g. -Xmx512M or even -Xmx1024M).
By the way. To get an overview of all Java start options you can type in:
java -help
Getting the Source
JOSM is available under GPL, and so of course you can get the sources and compile, modify or redistribute it by yourself. You can grab the sources via subversion
svn co http://josm.openstreetmap.de/svn/trunk josm
Or you can inspect single files over the web frontend at svn (or browser).
Using ant
The easiest way to compile JOSM provided Java on your machine is properly set up is to go to the josm directory and type:
That will create a dist/josm-custom.jar file if successful.
Using eclipse
Use eclipse and the provided .project and .classpath file. Just add a new Java Project using the JOSM source folder as existing path.
As of Eclipse 3.5.2 and the latest JOSM (August 10, 2011), you will have problems compiling, due to problems compiling Mappaint MapCSS with a fresh install of Eclipse. First you will need the JavaCC plugin for Eclipse. To install it in Eclipse, go to Help->New Software... then add the site http://eclipse-javacc.sourceforge.net/ as a source, and install the JavaCC Eclipse Plug-in. Then in the Package Explorer, expand org.osm.josm.gui.mappaint.mapcss, right-click on MapCSSParser.jj, and "Compile with JavaCC". This should put new java files in a package called org.openstreetmap.josm.gui.mappaint.mapcss.parsergen, but if it doesn't, you will have to create the package manually (right-click and create package), then drag the new files into the package you just created (they should be easy to identify based on the light gray text that denotes it was compiled from MapCSSParser.jj). This should resolve any import issues in MapCSSStyleSource.java, and you should now be able to compile JOSM.
If you try to compile the JOSM sources in Eclipse and get errors like "The method marktr(String) is undefined for the type SomeType" look at solution suggested at mailing list.
There are also two Videos available at youtube, which show how to checkout JOSM into Eclipse and how to checkout a JOSM plugin into Eclipse.
Using javac
You can also build josm without ant or eclipse. To do so, call javac on the file org/openstreetmap/josm/gui/MainApplication.java with all libs from ../lib/*.jar in your classpath (you have to specify all subsequent). If running Linux, this would look like that:
- Check out the sources
svn co http://josm.openstreetmap.de/svn/trunk josm # ''tons of output here'' cd josm/ mkdir build
- Compile and run
javac -cp .:src -d build src/org/openstreetmap/josm/gui/MainApplication.java java -cp .:build org.openstreetmap.josm.gui.MainApplication
Unit Tests
It is most convenient, to run tests from an IDE like Eclipse or Netbeans. There is also an ant task to run all tests (but you cannot rerun individual tests).
Running Test from Command line
You can run tests from the command line, as well. Include all libraries in the class path like this:
export TESTCP=".:test/unit:test/functional:dist/josm-custom.jar:test/lib/fest/fest-assert-1.0.jar:test/lib/fest/MRJToolkitStubs-1.0.jar:test/lib/fest/jcip-annotations-1.0.jar:test/lib/fest/fest-swing-1.1.jar:test/lib/fest/fest-reflect-1.1.jar:test/lib/fest/fest-util-1.0.jar:test/lib/fest/debug-1.0.jar:test/lib/junit/junit-4.11.jar:test/lib/jfcunit.jar:test/lib/unitils-core/ognl-2.6.9.jar:test/lib/unitils-core/commons-lang-2.3.jar:test/lib/unitils-core/unitils-core-3.3.jar:test/lib/unitils-core/commons-logging-1.1.jar:test/lib/unitils-core/commons-collections-3.2.jar"
Then run for example
javac -cp $TESTCP test/unit/org/openstreetmap/josm/data/projection/ProjectionRefTest.java java -cp $TESTCP org.junit.runner.JUnitCore org.openstreetmap.josm.data.projection.ProjectionRefTest

With record attendance of more than 60,000 industry members, Ciao Bella joined forces at the Natural Products Expo West with more than 2,000 natural, organic and healthy living exhibitors in Anaheim last week to feature our delicious Greek frozen yogurt.
If you wonder how Ciao Bella gets noticed in Disneyland's local convention center, which is considered the largest convention center on the west coast, think of a "how to wow" guide by Ciao Bella. Picture a 20ft by 20ft booth filled with brightly colored packaging dressed with familiar swirls and snowflakes; more than sixteen mouth-watering flavors of gelato, Greek frozen yogurt, and sorbet in two sleekly designed Italian gelato cases aligned to a swank bar table and stools. The 15ft Pink wall was the perfect back drop for Ciao Bella's team of Bella Gals and Guys, all proudly adorning their brightly colored apparel to match the bright healthy Greek frozen yogurt. That is Wow.
Along with sampling our award winning sorbet and gelato flavors, Ciao Bella was proud to formally introduce our newest addition, Adonia Greek Frozen Yogurt by Ciao Bella, to the natural products industry, sampling our new flavors – raspberry, mango, blueberry, vanilla, espresso, peach, and key lime.
Many exhibitors at the show touted healthy product attributes that promised to draw in the consumer and healthy Greek frozen yogurt, Adonia, by Ciao Bella was no different. Our ingredient panel is top notch in the newly emerging Greek Frozen Yogurt category with 9g of protein/serving, 130 calories/serving and fat free, definitely something a consumer will feel good about. More importantly, the taste of this healthy frozen yogurt was applauded and given the high praise of only something Ciao Bella could deliver. Read more Adonia reviews on LifeScript.

Chain-link a bagel: Math never tasted so good
Monday - 6/25/2012, 5:42pm  ET
WASHINGTON - As it turns out, it is mathematically possible to cut a bagel into two linked pieces without breaking either half.
WTOP has the video to prove it.
A recent story from Buzzfeed demonstrates the technique, complete with instructions on how to toast it and the possibility of more surface area for cream cheese.
Buzzfeed does point out people may feel less cool eating their regular bagels next to those with the cool new bagel shape. Friendships may suffer.

Release Date: 1982 | Tracklist
good review. this is my favorite VH album
I'm a lot more satisfied with this than I am my Twisted Sister review.
Thanks. I've just had a lot of time on my hands lately. I'm grounded for most of the summer for almost getting arrested and taken to juvy.
Album Rating: 4.0This album is definitely not Van Halen's best by far, but is a very easy listen with some very interesting guitar hooks. The filler manages to even provide entertainment.
Album Rating: 3.0Practically the exact opposite of its dark & gritty predecessor 'Fair Warning', Van Halen's 5th LP 'Diver Down' plays out more like a B-Sides compilation than a proper album. The Californian quartet apparently had their hand forced by the record label to rush the release & record many covers... And you can tell, since 5 of the 12 tracks are covers, while 3 more are introductory instrumentals! Oddly, it still plays out as rather fun & entertaining, but 'Diver Down' is ultimately too messy & inconsistent to be rated highly. Recommended Tracks: Hang 'Em High, Pretty Woman & Where Have All the Good Times Gone?
Album Rating: 1.0The absolute worst VH album (including III). The poor quality is understandable when one realizes how much drugs and booze were flowing through the veins of the band members during this era. This album is a major F.O. to all Van Halen fans. It screams "We don't care about anything". The first four albums are rockin' and awesome. This is a joke. Cover after cover. Boring originals. The only good song is Little Guitars (thanks to the intro). This album is comparable to Mötley Crüe's Theater of Pain. Both bands were so chemically out of it that they just threw together a piece-of-shiite filler album and got lucky with a hit (Pretty Woman and Home Sweet Home).
Album Rating: 4.0Not even close Fitty.Digging: Moss (Netherlands) - We Both Know the Rest is Noise

With the trade deadline in the bag and closers moving, we have a lot to talk about. Some of it refreshing like a glass of ice cold lemonade on a summer's day. Some of it less so like being asked to write something for Lainie Kazan, wondering who Lainie Kazan is and Googling her to find Playboy pics from the 1970′s juxtaposed with her present-day pics.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Jose Arredondo
Here's one way baseball could take cues from fantasy baseball. Yesterday, the Marlins announced that they'd be going to a closer-by-committee, which puts Steve Cishek in line for saves. If they had a fantasy baseballer (<–my mom's term!) running their club, things would've been different down in South Florida.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Well, not much has changed for closers since last month when we did a run down of all of them. Kimbrel got a save, Axford got a save, and everyone else sucks. Holly Robinson Peete closers are a mess! I don't think there's ever been so many Brain Freezes before. I almost feel like adding an extra category below the Brain Freezes called, "The Legend of Gloom." Wha' happened? Did someone poison the bullpen water? Has Mariano Rivera made it so when he retires there won't be any more closers? There will only be starters and "Those Other Guys." To recap this month in closing quickly: Valverde has been less than stellar, Putz and Street just don't close games, Motte hasn't been good, Brian Wilson became Casilla who Bochy pulled after one batter during one game, Joel Hanrahananananan gave fantasy owners the question, "Who's Juan Cruz?", Sergio Santos may start throwing at some point in the next few weeks, the Red Sox gave the job to someone who has an over 10 ERA, Frank-Frank hasn't had a blank-blank inning in forever, Kyle Farnsworth left stage right and Rodney, who couldn't get saves last year, entered stage "I can't believe Rodney's closing games," Guerra's been about as bad as expected, Walden blew one save and lost the job, What the H.
Please, blog, may I have some more?James Lipton recently sat down with Stephen Strasburg and when he asked him what he thought of becoming a Nat, Stephen Strasburg said a'la Brando in On the Waterfront, "Actaaaaaa!!!" Stephen Strasburg is THE BEST PITCHER EVER. (Caps were provided by Scott Boras.) The hype and superlatives of Strasburg have been spewed across the interwebs, so allow me to give you some perspective. The last seven number one draft picks were Delmon Young, Matt Bush, Justin Upton, Luke Hochevar, David Price, Tim Beckham and Strasburg. One guy in those seven is currently helping you. One guy could help you. One guy grabbed $3.15 million and opened a shaved ice stand in Acapulco. In 1996, Kris Benson was presumably the best pitcher to ever toe the rubber coming out of college with a 204/27 K/BB ratio. In 1999, Alfredo Amezaga was drafted one pick before Albert Pujols. I think Strasburg will help your fantasy baseball team at some point. I don't think he's helping you this year. In deep keeper leagues, I'd grab Strasburg now. He'll be a Nat sooner versus later, but that's only because the Nats number one pitcher is John Lannan. In one year leagues, wait until he's called up. Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:
Brad Lidge – Headed to the DL. Man, who else strikes out more than a batter an inning, yet looks so vunerable to a meltdown? I mean, this doode literally will strikeout the side around two home runs. I don't think this will necessarily be a lost season for Lidge. He should come back in July and be 'just okay.' Hopefully, for Lidge owners, he gets the closing job back. I think he will. Doesn't mean you shouldn't own Madson.
Please, blog, may I have some more?In this month's closer look, let's discuss the value of middle relievers. I'm a big Mr. B. Depending on the team, I have various combinations of MRs. On one team, I have C.J. Wilson still. (Notched a Save and a Win in a doubleheader the other day — natch!) On another team, I'm rocking Dan Meyer. On another, Rafael Soriano. Besides having a guy that could take over the closing duties, middle relievers help lower your starters' ratios. Mark DiFelice + James Shields = 7-4/3.01/1.15/74 or Jake Peavy, 5-5/3.67/1.13/84. That's right, the Frankenpitcher of Jark DiShields is beating the pure breed Jake Peavy. So how's dem apples? Delicious! Now in some cases, you just can't hold a MR. Whether you're besieged by injuries, need to handcuff one of your closers or need a bench hitter, sometimes it's just not feasible. As much as I like MRs, they are invariably the first ones I drop on my teams when I need help somewhere else. Luckily, there's always one available on waivers. If it's not Jark DiShields, you can own Kiko Garzero or C.J.
Please, blog, may I have some more?In this month's closer look, let's discuss some closer trading strategy. As I mentioned the other day, I traded Street and some other closer for Haren. This might've put me at a disadvantage for saves. Now you're probably thinking what the eff? This doode doesn't even know who he traded or if it put his team at a disadvantage for saves. Well, that's the whole point. Saves are the easiest commodity to acquire on waivers. Just last month, 10 closers lost their jobs, even if just temporarily. 10 out of 30 closers. So, frankly, I don't care if I'm trading Qualls, Bell or schmohawk closer behind door number 3. Are some of these guys more reliable than others? Sure, but that doesn't mean Jenks couldn't have a meltdown tomorrow. They're just closers. As for not knowing if I'm at a disadvantage, it's real early and plenty more saves will come into the league. Not that many more Harens are coming into the league. Anyway, here's all of the closers for your fantasy baseball team, as of right now:
$12 Salads
You know that restaurant your girlfriend/wife/what-have-you likes to go to that charges, like, $12 for a salad?
Please, blog, may I have some more?It's time to take our beginning of the month look at all the fantasy baseball closers. Here at Razzball we are always evolving like Saaphyri's alliance on I Love Money 2, so I've added pluses and minuses in parenthesis for the movement a closer has had since the last time I went over them. For example, if B.J.
Please, blog, may I have some more?It's time to take our beginning of the month look at all the major league closers. Some closer battles have not been squared away yet. The Cubs are still holding Gregg over Marmol's head, the Cards are still reluctant to say Perez, the A's might split duties between Devine and Ziegler and the Mariners are looking forward to 2010. Personally, I think the Cubs will split Marmol and Gregg 75/25, taking a little value away from Marmol and adding a lot of value to Gregg. If Gregg gets any saves, he's worth a spot on your roster. I think Devine should and will be the closer for the majority of the year. I think the Cards will go with Perez out of the gate and he'll be the closer for the majority of the year. Though his leash will be short, making Motte a good late flier. Other good late fliers for the MR.
Please, blog, may I have some more?No, this is not the bottom of the Top 20 2009 fantasy baseball rankings barrel. No, next we're not going to do the Top 20 Guys Who Will Have The Most Balks. Chillax. It's one post. The only fantasy baseballers (<–my Mom's phrase) that seem to pay attention to Middle Relievers are those that play in a Holds league. This is wrong, I tell ya. A great way to balance out your ratios is by carrying a few middle relievers on your staff. (BTW, Ron Jeremy can carry three middle relievers on his staff.) Say you had Aaron Harang last year and he mistook your team's ERA for his toilet, but you also had Waking Joey Devine. With just Harang, you had the unsightly dump of a 4.78 ERA. With Devine and his brand new toilet brush, you had a 3.95 ERA. Voila, snitches! If you also carried Brad Ziegler, you had a combined 3.36 ERA. Not to mention, you had saves when Ziegler took over for Street. Middle relievers can also help balance out your junky closers. Okay, school's out, Alice Cooper. Anyway, here's the top 20 middle relievers for 2009 fantasy baseball:

text: | Happy New YearDecember 29, 2011 - Stephen BrowneOver the weekend we'll be welcoming in 2012. Jeez, I used to read science fiction stories set in 2012. Oh who am I kidding? I used to read science fiction stories set in 1970! Well the future didn't turn out quite like expected. In some ways we're way behind. We were supposed to be galavanting around the solar system by now. In person not with robots I mean. On the other hand, who expected lap tops and smart phones? Did anybody foresee the collapse of the Soviet Union back in 1970? Well yes some did, but nobody foresaw how soon. Those who did expect it generally guessed it would be happening about now. Lasers were first demonstrated in laboratories in the early 1950s. Back then people imagined all kinds of fanciful uses for them, like sci fi ray guns. But did anybody imagine that we'd be using them on a daily basis in things like DVD players? Or for the most mundane use of all - a laser pointer? The coming year is a presidential election year. An incumbent African-American president is going to be running against... somebody. And serious candidates for that somebody included women and second-generation immigrant/minorities. I remember when the serious speculation revolved around whether a Jewish guy could get elected in America. All this is by way of saying that change happens, and can happen rapidly. I expect 2012 is going to ring in some changes, for good and ill. On the one hand, in April the U.S. congress finally arrived at a budget deal to avert a government shutdown. Both sides agreed on some spending cuts, which are showing up in reduced expenditures on programs people have grown fond of. Those cuts amounted to $38.5 billion or 0.002 percent of the federal deficit. That's right, two-thousandth of one percent, in case you thought that was a typo. And that's the deficit, the rate at which the national debt grows every year, not the national debt itself. The national debt in terms of money owed and unfunded obligations undertaken by the government has reached a figure that can be summarized, "not enough money in the world." Financially, our country is headed for a cliff at full speed and nobody has the political will to slam on the breaks. On the other hand, petroleum geologists have confirmed that underneath the U.S. and the Western Hemisphere in general, are seas of oil in places we never expected, now accessible to modern drilling technology. There's oil under New York state for heaven's sake! Enough to meet our needs and become an oil exporting nation again. Our people are showing a resilience in dealing with tough economic times that some pessimists thought we didn't have in us anymore. New business ventures still get started, and most of the major advances in science and industry are still made here. All in all, I expect this to be an interesting year.

Im going to go with a pro tune (precision tuning), and buy the access port because from what i have heard its well worth it. also im going to get a cobb cbe and invidia dp, Do these mods seem to be a good combo?
Yeah alot tuners won't tune your car unless you have an accessport but I live in jersey too and just checking that you know of the only three E85 stations in the state and two of them are central/north NJ. CBE will give you a nice rumble and the DP will definitely bring you the power you want.

If you're a teenage girl, the most awesome band in the world is One Direction.
And if you're 16-year-old Ashley Campbell of Omaha, you just had the most awesome week. Ever.
Last week, Ashley got a curious phone call. On the line was a representative from Sharpie pens, who told her she had won a contest. The prize? An all-expenses-paid trip with friends to New York to see One Direction, her favorite band.
"They had a blast. They were just speechless," said Tina Campbell, Ashley's mom. "The treatment that we got was red carpet treatment."
Ashley, a junior at Roncalli High School, entered the contest on Facebook to see the British boy band, which sings songs such as "What Makes You Beautiful." When she won, Ashley talked to her parents and immediately called her friends.
"At first, some of them didn't believe me. They were like so excited for me. Screaming," Ashley said. "Then I surprised them and was like, 'Well, you know I'm gonna take you.'"
Ashley got to take seven friends, as well as two chaperones, her parents. Ashley and four of the girls took two days off from school to make the trip.
The trip included a private jet flight to and from New York, front row seats at the concert and a VIP area where they had a party.
A photographer from Sharpie followed them around during the flight and at the Madison Square Garden concert, which made the girls feel like celebrities.
Ashley first heard of One Direction about a year ago. Her passion for the band quickly intensified.
"I became obsessed in January," she said.
"I can attest to that," added her mom, with a laugh.
The pop group with a super-sweet sound was on the show "X Factor" and has soared in popularity since its formation in 2010. The band has broken sales records, and singles "What Makes You Beautiful" and "Live While We're Young" are international top-tier hits.
During the trip, Tina took Ashley and her friends to the 1D World store in New York and they visited the set of "Good Morning America," where the girls got on camera.
"The concert was great," Mom said. "They had a wonderful experience. It was pretty amazing."

We were the gifted artists, you and I, made breathless by the beauty of the sky, trying to convey this beauty in art, not knowing we were missing half our heart. We were the true peace-makers, you and I, we'd give and give until the day we died, we dreamt our dreams no matter how wistful, our love for our kids: unconditional. How we loved our children, you and I, from infants, to toddlers, through junior high, grown now, we can only dream and recall, caressing their skin when they were so small.

2 U.S. Code § 907d - Special reconciliation process
Reporting of resolutions and reconciliation bills and resolutions, in Senate
Committee alternatives to Presidential order
After the submission of an OMB sequestration update report under section
904 of this title that envisions a sequestration under section
902 or
903 of this title, each standing committee of the Senate may, not later than October 10, submit to the Committee on the Budget of the Senate information of the type described in section
(d) of this title with respect to alternatives to the order envisioned by such report insofar as such order affects laws within the jurisdiction of the committee.
Initial Budget Committee action
After the submission of such a report, the Committee on the Budget of the Senate may, not later than October 15, report to the Senate a resolution. The resolution may affirm the impact of the order envisioned by such report, in whole or in part. To the extent that any part is not affirmed, the resolution shall state which parts are not affirmed and shall contain instructions to committees of the Senate of the type referred to in section
(a) of this title, sufficient to achieve at least the total level of deficit reduction contained in those sections which are not affirmed.
Response of committees
Committees instructed pursuant to paragraph (2), or affected thereby, shall submit their responses to the Budget Committee no later than 10 days after the resolution referred to in paragraph (2) is agreed to, except that if only one such Committee is so instructed such Committee shall, by the same date, report to the Senate a reconciliation bill or reconciliation resolution containing its recommendations in response to such instructions. A committee shall be considered to have complied with all instructions to it pursuant to a resolution adopted under paragraph (2) if it has made recommendations with respect to matters within its jurisdiction which would result in a reduction in the deficit at least equal to the total reduction directed by such instructions.
Budget Committee action
Upon receipt of the recommendations received in response to a resolution referred to in paragraph (2), the Budget Committee shall report to the Senate a reconciliation bill or reconciliation resolution, or both, carrying out all such recommendations without any substantive revisions. In the event that a committee instructed in a resolution referred to in paragraph (2) fails to submit any recommendation (or, when only one committee is instructed, fails to report a reconciliation bill or resolution) in response to such instructions, the Budget Committee shall include in the reconciliation bill or reconciliation resolution reported pursuant to this subparagraph legislative language within the jurisdiction of the noncomplying committee to achieve the amount of deficit reduction directed in such instructions.
Point of order
It shall not be in order in the Senate to consider any reconciliation bill or reconciliation resolution reported under paragraph (4) with respect to a fiscal year, any amendment thereto, or any conference report thereon if—
would cause the amount of the deficit for such fiscal year to exceed the maximum deficit amount for such fiscal year, unless the low-growth report submitted under section
904 of this title projects negative real economic growth for such fiscal year, or for each of any two consecutive quarters during such fiscal year.
Treatment of certain amendments
In the Senate, an amendment which adds to a resolution reported under paragraph (2) an instruction of the type referred to in such paragraph shall be in order during the consideration of such resolution if such amendment would be in order but for the fact that it would be held to be non-germane on the basis that the instruction constitutes new matter.
In general
Except as provided in paragraph (2), in the Senate the provisions of sections
636 and
641 of this title for the consideration of concurrent resolutions on the budget and conference reports thereon shall also apply to the consideration of resolutions, and reconciliation bills and reconciliation resolutions reported under this paragraph and conference reports thereon.
Limit on debate
Debate in the Senate on any resolution reported pursuant to subsection (a)(2) of this section, and all amendments thereto and debatable motions and appeals in connection therewith, shall be limited to 10 hours.
Bills and resolutions received from the House
Any bill or resolution received in the Senate from the House, which is a companion to a reconciliation bill or reconciliation resolution of the Senate for the purposes of this subsection, shall be considered in the Senate pursuant to the provisions of this subsection.
(Pub. L. 99–177, title II, § 258C, as added Pub. L. 101–508, title XIII, § 13101(g),Nov. 5, 1990, 104 Stat. 1388–600.)

Police say Michael David Elliot, a convicted killer who escaped from a Michigan prison on Sunday, has been captured in Indiana.
Reported earlier
A Michigan man serving life behind bars for killing four people in 1993 escaped from prison Sunday, and authorities believe he could be headed to the Nashville area.
Michael David Elliot, 40, was discovered missing about 9:30 p.m. Sunday from the Ionia Correctional Facility in mid-Michigan, Michigan Department of Corrections spokesman Russ Marlan said in an email.
Nashville police were warned that Elliot could be headed to the area because he has family here, an emergency dispatcher said. Deputies in Cheatham County investigated an alleged sighting early Monday morning, but they quickly determined it was not Elliot.
After escaping from prison, Elliot carjacked a local woman and drove south, according to a statement from Michigan State Police. The woman was able to escape and notify police while the two were stopped at a gas station just south of the Michigan-Indiana state line.
Around 1 p.m. Monday, a Jeep that Elliot was driving was located abandoned in a parking lot in Shipshewana, Ind.
Elliot was 20 years old when four people were fatally shot in a robbery in mid-Michigan�s Gladwin County. Police say Elliot and his accomplices were trying to steal money from a drug dealer.
The Michigan State Police said Elliot should be considered armed and dangerous. Anyone who comes in contact with him should notify law enforcement immediately.
Staff writer Adam Tamburin contributed to this report.
