I can see why this brew is so highly rated, its great. Pours a deep brown almost black color with a slight ruby tint. A thick tan head arose, but quickly died down leaving a thin lace. The aromas were quite complex with dark malts, caramel, chocolate, and raisins. The taste is equally complex there were hints of nuttiness mixed with raisins and caramel, I swear that I could taste some licorice, too. Alcohol taste was quite apparent, but it wasnt overpowering so it mixed well with the other flavors. A mild alcohol and malt aftertaste was left in my mouth. This is a very complex and balanced brew; its absolutely exceptional.

Couldn't believe my good fortune at finding this on tap at a local watering hole. And my timing was fortuitous as the bartender told me it is to be replaced shortly with something more mainstream. Celebrator is a very dark and opaque beer (the lights in the bar were dim so I didn't get as good a look at it as I would have liked) with a thick tawny head. Rich caramel notes in the nose. The taste starts a little sweet but evolves to a dry, nutty, earthy finish as it passes over the tonque. Medium bodied and nicely carbonated. Very creamy and yummy. It is highly regarded by my fellow B.A.'s and deservedly so.

Well, what can I say in comparison to Salvator, Sam Adams, and Moretti this Doppelbock was superior according to my taste buds. The deep amber tint of the beer shines through when the darkness of it when held up to the light. Aroma of this beer fulfilling by itself, but after tasting this malty treat I was truly fulfilled with pleasure. For the mouthful that each sip delivers it presents a heavy caramel, sweet plum, at the same time a pleasant driness if that makes sense. A very complex, but at the same time extraordinary offering that stands up to all standards of a great double bock. After how drinkable it was on tap, I can't wait to try it in a bottle to compare.

Somehow I managed to find this beer on draught here in Columbus (at the Refectory). There simply cannot be a beer that I will enjoy more than this.
Served at a perfect temperature. Unbelievably easy to drink, with a light smooth malty flavor that was not too sweet. Balanced perfectly by the alcohol ratio. Just a whisper of chocolate in the aroma and flavor as well. Very dark with a medium thick beige head that diminished rather quickly, but who cares, because it was between me and this amazing beer. Now I am working on getting the Celebrator glasses from the restaurant after the beer is out of rotation.

This baby is dark, dark, dark! It has the appearance of molasses. Initial taste of malt with a hint of spice. I definitely could not drink too many but this would be great on a cold winters night.

This beer puts the Doppel in Bock. Smells like a German angel in a candy shop- bakery combo. Toffee, syrup, carmel, malt balls. Taste like you put a sweet dessert bread in a blender. Not too thick and hard to drink like it would lead you to believe. Does smell and taste a hair on the boozy side, but that is about the only thing bad I could say about it. It even comes with a souvenir goat. What more could you ask for?

*11.2 oz. bottle*
Look: Very dark ruby red body, off-white lacey ring around my glass.
Smell: Strong notes of toffee, dark red fruits, licorice, well rounded vanilla, faint hint of cocoa.
Taste: Toffee, slight cherry, licorice, bitter cocoa, subtle hints of spice, toasted nuts, vanilla, well balanced dryness that finishes slight bitter.
Feel: Medium-light body, poppy carbonation.
Overall: Very tasty and to the point. I can see why this is called Celebrator. At nearly 7%abv, there is a lot going on. The flavors are pronounced yet seem individual other than just being a mess in a glass. The dryness leaves you wanting more. This is recommended.

Pours a huge beige head with stout-like action. Retention is excellent. Brew appears a solid black, but when held up to the light, reveals garnet and brown highlights and some translucency. Nice but scattered lacing.
Nutty, bready, fruity aroma: dark fruits (prunes), yeast, dark bread. Yummy. Smells like a lighter, yet sweeter, Belgian Dubbel.
Tastes like one, too! Very, very sweet, almost syrupy; liquid bread with a huge prune and yeast presence. Slightly boozy. Some caramel malt presence.
Mouthfeel is light and very drinkable, a clear indicator of the style, despite the huge flavor profile. Again, a little boozy on the back-end, despite being only 6.7%.
This is a nice, super-drinkable dark beer that goes down easy.
No bottle date I could detect.

330ML bottle with no date, poured into my Troegs mug...
A - Dark muddy brownish/black color with a perfect one finger head and nice tan head. A sticky lace holds throughout consumption
S - Caramel and malts are predominant for me. Very good aroma that makes you crave it
T - Dark fruits, caramel, toffee, butterscotch and with a malty backbone. Absolutely perfect for the style
M - Smooth, medium body with a low carbonation. Ultra smooth finish
O - Doppelbocks aren't usually my thing but there's no way you can't appreciate how great this beer is. The 6.7% masks amazingly well. I could crush this beer so easily. The unique flavors meld perfectly together. This is absolutely world class and I'm kicking myself for continually passing it up time after time

330ml bottle poured into the Libbey Craft Pub glass (like a pils glass but with a slight inward taper at the top).
A: This exciting ale poured a luscious dark brown like the color of beef stock or chestnuts. the head is a toasty tan, rocky and vibrant at about 2 fingers with medium retention. Full lace; the foam climbs up the glass.
S: Oh boy oh boy. Malty malt. Caramel. Figs. Prunes. Dates. Quite intense. All malt body. No hop. A little spicy fermentation.
T: Oh man. It's full of dark dried fruit, and then the malt backbone reveals itself: All toasty, roasty malt. Finishes with a slight bitterness from the roast. This is clearly an ode to rich malt as the West Coast IPA is to the hop.
M: Despite it richness, it feels bright and clean at first, but then coalesces into a sticky, but not unpleasant, tenacious syrup. Medium-heavy body with playful carbonation.
O: This beer is sensational. Not only the best bock I've had, but one of the best beers. Damn. I'd definitely pair this with roast game or roast pork with some spice. This is definitely an appropriate beer for roaring fires and red meat off the bone!

a: Wondeful look in the pint glass. Dark browns, not muddy but darker richer browns.
s: very light roasted carmel tones
t: smooth on the tongue, slight roast after taste and some sweetness.
m: Looks full bodied, but mouth feel is lighter, thinner but in a good way.
o: Fantastic beer, we did pint glasses at 57F and could have drank a lot more. Generally higher alcohol beers taste like it, but this was simple and easy to drink with no hint of the higher alcohol esters.

Pours a deep brown that nearly appears black; hues reminiscent of dark oak push through only at the fringes. A generous, 3 cm layer of khaki-colored head developed and lingered briefly. Minimal lacing. The aroma is of caramel, molten brown sugar, warm molasses, and earthen grains. The flavor amplifies these notes and adds a nice bready background flavor/texture. Some fruity elements - date, plum, and even a hint of pear - push through on the finish. Mouthfeel is superb with a viscous, full-bodied consistency and clean, slightly effervescent finish. Overall, this is something of a "style-defining" beer for me, and I tend to gauge the quality of other dopplebocks against it. Celebrator is well balanced, full-bodied, and rich in flavor; combined with its availability and affordability, it's a first-class choice.

Had this on 2014-02-16 in Columbia, PA. Tasted side-by-side with an Andech's Doppelbock.
A - Clear but very dark mahogany with a 2.5-finger tan head that sticks around and leaves very good lacing.
S - Fresh, lightly toasted wheat bread, molasses, touch of clove. Not real strong. Similar to an Andech's but with just a bit of sour dough thrown in. The aroma on this is slightly stronger than the Andech's.
T - Dark fruit (plum and fig), molasses, medium-roasted grain with a touch of char. Earthy spice, a touch of chocolate and a very nice bit of roasted and hop bitterness. Finishes with a chalky chocolate and toasted sour dough finish with more of the balancing bitterness. Dries moderately / reasonably for the style. Very enjoyable.
M - Light-medium body and carbonation. Not substantial but not watery. An easy drinker.
O - An excellent Doppelbock. Compared to the Andech's, the contrast between the various flavors is more pronounced / bolder. The Andech's has more of an integrated / balanced flavor plus a firmer mouthfeel. In this head-to-head comparison, the Andech's wins by a nose. You can't go wrong with either.

Sampled from a 330ml bottle.
A - A deep mahogany hue with a fair amount of light coming through and seemingly great clarity. Beautiful color! Just a dusting of head.
S - Brown sugar with some dark fruits and nuts.
T - Brown sugar and raisins. Smooth with no rough edges. Just a hint of sweetness and a slightly bitter finish.
M - Slick with a low carbonation that let the flavors shine.
O - A solid, well executed beer.

A: Pours a nice amber color with a white head.
S: Nose is malty, like most doppelbocks, but also has the delightful scent of maple syrup.
T: More maple syrup and malt! There's also a touch of fruit in there, but the maple syrup is the dominant flavor.
M: Medium-ful bodied and smooth.
O: While I wouldn't say it's as good as Salvator, I would say that it's way better than most other bottom fermented beers.

11.2 oz bottle was poured into a pint glass.
Appearance: This beer poured a two finger off white head that reduced to a thin layer. It is a brown/crimson color with a little vision of bubbles when held up to a light.
Smell: Caramel, toffee, raisin, plums, bananas, bready malts, and earthy hops.
Taste: Very tasty brew. All above aromas plus a little roastiness and mild tingly hop bitterness.
Mouthfeel: Smooth, chewy, tingly, malty, light to medium bodied, and medium carbonation.
Overall: I haven't had this in a while for no reason. I forgot how good and delicious it tasted. I'll be buying or more often now.

A: Very dark chocolate coffee color, 1/4 inch head, no visible carbonation.
S: Sweet and dark fruits, specifically plum, with a presence of roasted malt.
T: Roasted nutty flavor on the front end, very smooth, no pop, with a sweet coffee, toffee, caramel flavor on the back end.
M: Extremely smooth medium body, slightly creamy feel balanced by light carbonation (too flat for my taste), and a slight alcohol warming sensation that lingers.
O: Inviting color, perfect scent and flavor, lighter than it looks. Lives up to its reputation as one of the best doppelbocks in the world.

A- Pleasing to look at, and the head was beautiful while it lasted, which wasn't long. It did retain a small froth on the top, all the way to the end. I was very pleased with this. As the head subsided, there were small white "floaties", which I haven't seen in other beers. My glass was clean.
S- I was not really expecting how sweet and light this beer smells when it's compared to it's looks. I couldn't quite put my finger on it until I read somebody else's review, but it definitely smells like raisins and malt, with a slight alcohol smell on the nose.
T- Initial taste is sweet malt and raisin, followed by a dry yet smooth middle, finished by a slight alcohol taste on the tongue. After my pint was half finished, the initial flavors seemed to have subsided and all that was really present was the bitterness, but not the roasted malt kind.
M- This beer definitely coats your mouth, but I personally don't really like the flavor that it leaves. Its reminiscent of drinking cold medicine and having that taste in your mouth afterwards. It's not a heavy beer at all, despite what some people say.
O- I gave this beer a fair review, and I can definitely say there's a lot of good about it. I just recognize that it really isn't my cup of tea (or beer). It was definitely worth a try though, and I would recommend it heartily to people that don't enjoy lighter beers and dislike the charred coffee taste of stouts and lagers. It's sweeter and not as harsh as some of the stouts that I enjoy, but I wasn't much of a fan of the alcohol on the nose and palate. I feel like it needed more body and more complex flavors to compliment the alcohol finish.

A: Dark brown with a quickly dissipating head. Nearly no signs of carbonation.
S: Molasses, Coffee, caramel make this a great experience for the nose.
T: The first flavor that hit my tongue was the sweetness. This is most likely the reason why this beer is so popular. It's unique in that you don't expect that taste when drinking such a dark beer.
M: Warm, smooth coating all around. Very enjoyable!
O: I don't have a long history with bock beers, but it this is any indication of the experience, I might have found a new favorite type of beer.

Very nice head. Almost pitch black. Nice lacing. Vibrant smell of sweet raisin and malts. Great sweetness with raisin and chocolate malt flavor. Faint alcohol finish. This is true liquid food! Taste gets thinner after each gulp. Twirling the beer in the glass the beer resembles jelly. Very thick looking but does not taste thick. Great beer!

Pours a dark cola color with a half-inch tan head that settles to a film with a ring around the glass. Good retention; nice, even lacing.
Roasted malts, oats, coffee, and toffee. Very nice, very simple, very sweet.
Nutty and nicely browned. Oats, burnt malt (on the cusp of being bitter), and some nuts.
Dry and coating with a touch of stickiness. Good carbonation and a tingly, creamy mouthfeel. Medium-full body.
Really good doppelbock.
This might not be the best doppelbock I have had but it is certainly one of them. The beer is much more subtle than Korbinian is on the whole, and is right on the mellow side of the spectrum of dark bocks (as I see it).
This is a mellow but filling beer, and is worth trying.
Would have again; worth trying if you have access to it.

Very dark brown in color and only when held up to light can you tell that light will make it through. A thin wisp of dark beige head covers most of the top of the brew. Very active carbonation within. Aroma is very rich dark malt (think dark brown bread). Mouth is thick,creamy,and a bit sticky. Flavor is heavily weighted with dark malt that lingers well into the fade.

11.2 oz brown bottle with a nice colorful albeit kind of homemade looking label with the classic billy goats and a small goat trinket hanging around the neck. Nice touch. Poured fridge cold into a brandy snifter.
Appearance: Deep and dark, occasionally hinting flashes of crimson with a nice tan colored head and sticky, long lasting lace.
Smell: Complex sweetness and roasted malts make you want to keep sniffing away in anticipation of what is to come.
Taste: Oh boy. This is the doppelbock against which all others are measured. Sweet malt, raisins, the most subtle hint of alcohol spice, maybe a touch of toffee and dark chocolate. Absolutely delicious and the aftertaste lingers as a reminder. Additionally, it seems to get better as you sip it and as it warms revealing more complexities of malted goodness.
Mouthfeel: Medium mouthfeel with beautiful carbonation not too bubbly, expected it to be heavier than it is. Creamy without being syrupy. Feel free to swish it around.
An epic representation of the style and awful nifty that it's available year round. Not overly alcoholic at 6.7% which is good because you will want another. Hop bitterness is barely noticeable and serves well to keep the sweetness in balance. Well done.

Bottle poured into an Ayinger Celebrator glass
Ruby brown, like the color of coca cola but without the carbonation. Dense two finger taupe cap settles into a gentle lid with nice glass lacings. It is dense, dark and barely let's light pass through.
Sweet malt aroma. Deep rich raisins. Bit of licorice. Smells really, really great.
Smooth. Gentle carbonation on the middle of the tongue. Malt sweetness, raisin, molasses, hint of licorice. Hint of alcohol. Delicious. Clean aftertaste of malt.
Medium, medium heavy mouthfeel. Chewy, rich and worth savoring.
There are hopheads in the universe. I am a malt head. Celebrator is one of my all time favorite beers. The taste is sooo good. Back up the truck, stock up the fridge. Drink. Enjoy. Repeat. Frequently repeat because it is worth it.

This tea room is a must visit if you haven't ever been. That said, it's not my favorite tea room. I don't find the snacks appetizing and despite their tea list being moderately sizes, I always feel limited and have a difficult time selecting something. It is a nice tea room though, and they have a teashop next door that is nice too.
This place is my tea shangri-lah. I always try to visit when I'm in town.
I owe a lot to this place and its sister location at the Lan Su Chinese Garden. If it weren't for Tao, I wouldn't have graduated from teabags. Their Silver Needle white tea made me a convert. The appearance of their main shop is traditionally rustic but with a modern flare, and all of their teas are served in the fashion of the region they stem. (You actually get a gourd and bombilla when you order yerba mate.) Can't say enough good things about it.
This tea house is in the midst of the Chinese Garden in the China Town district. Surrounded by beautiful gardens, they serve a fantastic variety of authentic chinese tea treats, along with a huge selection of teas!

Abe Atiyeh had just finished filing his fifth lawsuit of the day when a man approached him outside the prothonotary's office.
"Come with me if you want to live," the man said.
"What are you talking about?" Atiyeh said. "I'm due in court in 15 minutes."
"There's no time."
Suddenly a heavily muscled man in sunglasses turned the corner of the courthouse corridor, saw Atiyeh and began running toward him with incredible acceleration.
"Get back!" yelled Atiyeh's protector, shoving him away and pulling a sawed-off shotgun from his long jacket. He pumped a shell into the chamber, blasted the assassin and kept firing, driving the bigger man back down the hall. When the man was on the ground, the protector rushed back to Atiyeh and dragged him to the elevator. The assailant charged them, seemingly unhurt, as the doors closed.
"What is going on?!" Atiyeh cried.
"You're in terrible danger. We have to get you somewhere safe."
"Why? Who was that guy?
"He's a Terminator Cyberdyne Systems Model 101, sent from the future to destroy you," the man said.
"What?!! Where did you come from?"
"I'm from the future, too. My name is Kyle Reese, and I've been sent to keep you alive."
"Pawlowski! He has to be behind this!"
"The mayor of Allentown! He just sued me for $50 million to shut me up! Or somebody from Bethlehem! That neighborhood group hates me!"
"Mr. Atiyeh, this has nothing to do with your relentless rezoning attempts to build your misplaced projects and then sue everyone in sight, annoying as that no doubt must be."
The elevator reached the basement, and Reese led him out into the parking garage. Atiyeh asked, "How did he get up so quickly after you shot him?"
"The Terminator's part man, part machine. Underneath, it's a hyper-alloy combat chassis, microprocessor-controlled. Fully armored; very tough. But outside, it's living human tissue: flesh, skin, hair, blood, grown for the cyborgs."
Reese found an unlocked car and pulled the door open. "Get inside. It'll be here any moment." He pulled wires from under the steering wheel, twisted them and the engine started.
Abe Atiyeh new target for Terminator

2010 Ferrari-Carano Emelia's Cuvée Chardonnay
Russian River ValleyNamed for Don Carano's paternal grandmother, Emelia Ferrari, the 2010 Emelia's Cuvée Chardonnay is a delicious, unfiltered wine with aromas and flavors of peach, marshmallow, fig, vanilla, pear and brown sugar interwoven with layers of citrus, apricot, cream and maple. An elegant, smooth, toasty oak finish characterizes this lovely wine.
Vintage Notes
Record rainfall in the spring was followed by a very mild summer; July being the coolest it's been in 50 years. With all the mild weather, the grapes had wonderful natural acidity which will lead to great aging potential. Harvest began two weeks later than normal in late September, with the last grapes being picked early-October.
Winemaker Notes
Two Chardonnay clones comprise this wine, which is hand harvested, whole-cluster pressed, cold settled for 24 hours in stainless steel tanks, and then moved directly to barrels for fermentation using select French oak. Aged separately by lot, this wine completes 100 percent malolactic fermentation and is sur lie aged and stirred every two weeks until blending in the summer. The wine is then returned to neutral French oak barrels for continued aging and integration for six months until bottled.
Food Pairing
Emelia's Cuvée pairs perfectly with seafood and poultry entrees, as well as salads with tropical fruit-based dressings. Light pastas, rice and vegetable dishes also marry well.

Alan Ball has teamed with Oprah Winfrey's Harpo Films to produce an HBO telepic based on the new bestseller The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks.
The non-fiction tome by science journo Rebecca Skloot tells the story of Lacks, a poor Baltimore mother of five who died of cervical cancer in 1951 at age 31. Doctors at Johns Hopkins removed cancerous cells from her body—without her family's knowledge—that wound up leading to significant breakthroughs in medical research, ranging from aiding the development of the cure for polio to AIDS-related treatments. Book blends the story of the groundbreaking science enabled by Lack's unusual resilient cells with the devastation that her death and the medical research process had on her family. Immortal Life was published by Crown in Febuary. Ball, creator and exec producer of HBO's True Blood, began pursuing the rights after he received a pre-publication copy last November while on a material-scouting mission in Gotham with his producing partner, Peter Macoissi. "I fell in love with it," Ball said. "I thought it would be a perfect movie for HBO." Harpo Films topper Kate Forte also began chasing the rights in January after reading the book. Once Ball and Forte realized they were going after the same property and had a similar vision for turning it into an HBO movie, it was a no-brainer to join forces. "Once Alan came aboard, it gave Rebecca the comfort of knowing that she'd found the perfect combination of producers and the perfect home for her story," Forte said. Now that HBO's deal to option the book is closed, the partners are about to begin recruiting a screenwriter. Winfrey, Forte, Ball and Macoissi will exec produce for Ball's Your Face Goes Here banner and Harpo Films. Ball and Forte were effusive about how Skloot's book easily lends itself to a screen adaptation. "It's an incredibly visually exciting story," Forte said. "The science of it all is told in an amazing way." Forte noted that Winfrey read the book in one sitting. "She couldn't put it down," she said. Ball couldn't say enough about how excited he is to work with Winfrey and Forte on such a significant project. Immortal Life is high on HBO Films' priority list, given the auspices. "This is going to be a journey that we'll all remember for the rest of our lives," Ball predicted. The book rights in the deal were repped by UTA and Writer's House.

Mrs. Laraine Mouat
1) by Louise Geldenhuys on Mar. 5 2013 Rated : Laraine did pranic Healing on me when I had minor cosmetic eye surgury. It certainly speeded up the recovery and bruising. 2) by L. De Wet on Feb. 27 2013 Rated : A while ago, I experienced very bad abdominal pains. I was admitted in hospital & every possible test was done / performed on me but all came back without a possible cause. As a 'last' resort a specialist wanted to remove my appendix. I refused, as I was sure it was not the cuase. I went to Laraine, had 3 sessions with her & never had that problem again. I will recommend her to anyone. She is professional & when working on you, you can actually feel the energies flowing through your whole body. 4) by Sylvia Whyattjohn on Feb. 26 2013 Rated : I have had Pranic Healing with Laraine for past 8 years & always felt incredibly at peace, energised & grounded in bliss! Laraine genuinely cares for her fellow man & their wellbeing, thank you Laraine |

"Every boy possesses some form of inventive genius. Tom Swift is a bright, ingenious boy and his inventions and adventures make the most interesting kind of reading."
"These spirited tales convey in a realistic way, the wonderful advances in land and sea locomotion and other successful inventions. Stories like these are impressed upon the memory and their reading is productive only of good."
This series of adventure novels starring the genius boy inventor Tom Swift falls into the genre of "invention fiction" or "Edisonade".

Endowed Scholarships give deserving students the chance to attend USF. Many talented, worthy students cannot attend the university without the financial aid scholarships provide. Opening the doors to Jesuit education for students at all economic levels has been a high priority at USF for more than 150 years. Scholarships mean that students can pursue their studies free of undue financial hardship.
An endowed gift is one that USF holds in perpetuity. This gift is invested, with a portion of its average annual investment return used for purposes specified by the donor. Many donors select endowed scholarship funds. To guard against the eroding consequences of inflation, the remaining investment return is added to the principal. Thus, a donor who creates an endowed gift today can be confident that it will continue to support USF students in the years to come.
All endowed gifts, including scholarship funds, may be named. Donors may have their names — or the name of a loved one — linked to their scholarships.
You may create an endowment in a number of ways, all of which offer tax and financial benefits:
If you have questions about how to establish a scholarship endowment, please contact us.

The City of Toledo could soon expand a program that's letting some residents know when a crime is happening in their neighborhood.
The Old Orchard neighborhood has been using the "Eye Citizen" system for several months. Residents are getting 911 alerts texted to their phones. The system uses longitude and latitude to bring in 911 alerts from a quarter-mile radius around their home.
City Councilman Tom Waniewski says he wants to expand the system citywide.
"It also allows for an extra pair of eyes for the police department," he said. "If you get a text alert that there's a burglary happening a half a block from where you live, and you can poke your head out your window to see if there's a van, a suspicious person going by, then that can help the police. I think that's what we were looking for."
Council could vote next week to spend the $50,000 they approved earlier this year to let programmers get started on the expansion.
The program is completely voluntary, and there is no cost to residents who sign up for it. It could be available citywide in early July.

PHP Base-62 encoding
Planet PHP
, 11 August 2011
There's a really horrible bug (though they won't call it that!) in Apache's mod_rewrite that means that urlencoded inputs in rewrites get unescaped in their transformation to output patterns. The bug actually remains unfixed, though a workaround first appeared in Apache 2.2.12 (which wasn't all that long ago). Put it like this: if you're not using the [B] flag in your mod_rewrite rules, your site is probably only working due to blind luck. With that in mind, a few years ago I spent ages looking for a...

There has been some discussion recently on the Zend Framework mailing list around release cycles.

Michelangelo van Dam's Blog: Quality Assurance on PHP projects - PHPDocumentor feedback
, 9 August 2011
As a follow up to his previous post about using DocBlock commenting and phpDocumentor for automatic project documentation generation, Michelangelo van Dam has posted a deeper look at DocBlox, one of his previously mentioned alternatives.First of all, thank you all for the enormous feedback I got on my latest article on documentation of code. I got a lot of comments on the usage of PHPDocumentor. [...] I have to agree that [there are reasons] valid enough to step away from PHPDocumentor as a tool for...

Dave Marshall's Blog: Traits in PHP 5.4 - HelloWorld with Logging Trait
, 9 August 2011
Zend Framework
Dave Marshall is already looking ahead to the next major release of PHP, version 5.4, and one of the features it will include - traits. In this new post to his blog, he introduces a "logging trait" he's come up with to make logging simpler in your (Zend Framework) application.One of the 'traits' I find myself constantly adding to library files is optional logging of it's behaviour. The library class has it's own log method, that checks to see if the instance has had a logger injected and if so, logs the...

Gonzalo Ayuso's Blog: Runtime Classes. A experiment with PHP and Object Oriented Programming
, 8 August 2011
Gonzalo Ayuso has put together an experiment related to the current OOP structure of PHP - a test working with runtime classes, a structure generated entirely when the script is executed and not predefined in the file.Last week I was thinking about creation of a new type of classes. PHP classes but created dynamically at run time. When this idea was running through my head I read the following article and I wanted to write something similar. Warning: Probably that it is something totally useless, but I...

by Jane Gleeson-White
About this title: Drawing together a 15th century Venetian monk, Leonardo da Vinci, Josiah Wedgwood and the rise of corporate capitalism, Jane Gleeson-White argues that double-entry bookkeeping is one of history's best -- kept secrets and most important untold tales. Our world is governed by the numbers generated by the accounts of nations and corporations. We depend on these numbers to direct our governments, organisations, economies, societies. But where did they come from -- and how did they become so powerful? The answer to these ... read more

Expanded Examination Cycle for Certain Small Institutions
Interim Rule Effective February 12; Comments Invited by April 14 |
February 18, 1997
Circular No. 10927 | |
To All State Member Banks, and State-Licensed Branches and Agencies of The following is from the text of a statement by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System: The Federal Reserve Board, along with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and Office of Thrift Supervision, has issued an interim rule and requested comment on a proposal to expand the examination frequency cycle for certain financial institutions. The interim rule is effective February 12, 1997. Comment is requested by April 14, 1997. Implementation of this ruling will expand the eligibility for the 18-month examination cycle for "2" rated, well managed banks from the current asset size limit of $100 million to a new limit of $250 million. The ruling will implement section 306 of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994, and section 2221 of the Economic Growth and Regulatory Paperwork Reduction Act of 1996. The interagency notice also indicates that the International Banking Act of 1978 has been amended to provide that each branch or agency of a foreign bank shall be subject to on-site examination as frequently as would a national or state bank. Consequently, U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks are eligible for the 18-month cycle provided that they meet the qualifying criteria. Comments are also requested regarding application of these criteria to U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks. An excerpt from the Federal Register of February 12, containing the text of the interim rule is available as a (pdf) file. Comments thereon should be submitted by April 14, 1997 and may be sent to the Board, as specified in the notice, or, at this Bank, to any member of your portfolio management team in our Bank Supervision Group.

How technology has invaded fatherhood
Tuesday, March 05, 2013White Dad Problems
This week, Chicago Parent is talking technology, so the guys at White Dad Problems discuss the media devices that have replaced them as caregivers and role models. Science!
WDP15: Better Living with Technology by ChicagoParent
Technology is everywhere, and the Rise of the Robots is really just a few beep boops away. This week, Todd, Matt, and D.M. (Chicago's Greatest and Wisest and Handsomest Dads Ever ©) tell us all about the media that keeps their kids stimulated or anesthetized, depending on the need.
Matt's baby daughter is swiping murals, hoping they are touch screens. D.M. is trying to keep his twins away from media a little longer, but forsees a day when he'll give up on technological advancement like his 8-track loving grandparents. Todd's kids grew up in the era of a constant influx of Baby Einstein, and while they seem to not be sociopaths, he fears he may have dashed their hopes of leading a Mars mission, or inventing a cure for stage fright.
Meanwhile, Baby Viva uses Siri, and Todd can't even have a bio break without his phone. D.M. flashes us forward to the next wave of technology, where dreams become real and sandwiches appear out of nowhere. Hooray for the future!
If you like this audio blog, subscribe to the full length White Dad Problems podcast on iTunes (it's free)! You can also like them on Facebook and follow them on Twitter @whitedadprobs.
Remember, you don't have to be White or a Dad to enjoy White Dad Problems, but you should be over 17 or really love bad words.

David Thomas will give a Living Room Concert on December 10th in Farmington, Utah, near Salt Lake City. The host can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com to make RSVPs and learn about suggested donations and directions. Interviewer: Why was there no bass player for the 'Visions of the Moon' tour in Italy & the UK? DT: Circumstances forced a range of scenarios. At the same time I became obsessed with the new material we had been developing since July following the 'Carnival of Souls' performance. The LFS project, as I have noted elsewhere, was the culmination of a 20 year project designed to integrate improvisation into the compositional process in a particular way. The new material suggested the beginning of a new long-term project and I was anxious to get on with it rather than repeat LFS in the UK and Italy. This suggested a 'shock troops' orientation for the Pere Ubu line-up since much of the performance would be improvised from night to night as ideas were explored. Having both a drummer and a bass player in the band would constrain the process. Bass players and drummers have a foolish notion that they should play together and it's hard to shake them from their convictions. I went with a drummer - Michele had not been involved with the 'Carnival of Souls' because of scheduling conflicts but Steve had. We are now working on bringing in Michele in a particular way reminiscent of the Chinese Whispers method. WE HATE DAYS OFF, part 2 The last 'We Hate Days Off' appeal resulted in a very special evening in Troyes, France. We are now offering another Pere Ubu Living Room Concert opportunity Dec 15/16 for locations south of Portland and north of San Francisco. Imagine the possibilities - David Thomas himself rummaging thru your frigerator. Contact email@example.com West Coast Tour Dates for the West Coast tour of Lady From Shanghai have been announced on the Calendar page. Update 8/21/13: Visa Rejected Ubu Projex, the art and business directorate of the American band Pere Ubu, can confirm that notice has been received this weekend from the United States Customs & Immigration Service (USCIS) rejecting the visa petition for British band members Keith Moliné and Graham Dowdall (aka Gagarin). The sole grounds for rejection is the band's refusal to seek approval from the American Federation of Musicians (AFM). "The AFM are the antagonists in this affair," band leader David Thomas said. "They have no business telling me who can and who cannot be in the band." Details can be found in previous press releases, www.ubuprojex.net/press/ubuvisa.pdf. Cleveland guitarist Dave Cintron will join the band for the September US tour and provisions are in place for Moliné and Dowdall to link remotely for one of the songs in the set. There has been much disbelief and incredulity about this not-uncommon example of the obstacles international bands now face when seeking to tour the US. "The whole process has been going on since May, with several delays and absurd complexities," Thomas said. "The Cintron version will be magnificent, I have no doubt. If I cannot put a band together without government interference and without a pat on the head from the AFM, like a grateful dog, then so be it. I have no interest in frittering my life away with campaigning. "We will proceed with our music. Nothing will be announced from the stage. We won't be writing 'protest' songs or haranguing audiences. "There are visions and ideas to pursue. There's too little time to waste it on fighting stupidity. In the words of the MGM lion, Ars longa, vita brevis." [Yes, we know it was Hippocrates] We Fought the Faceless Government Clerk and the Faceless Government Clerk Lost Following on from press release dated 8/11/13, Pere Ubu announce revised line-up and revolutionary remote performance from the two British group members. Pere Ubu has added Cleveland guitar maestro Dave Cintron to the lineup for its September tour of the eastern USA and Canada. Mr. Cintron substitutes for British guitarist Keith Moliné, who is unable to enter the US due to the visa approval process delays, ongoing since May. The group's second synthesizer, Gagarin, is also unable to join the band on tour, but plans are in progress to produce a remote performance live from their homes in London, by way of a complex cell/broadband system.
Band leader David Thomas says that the show will be different to the UK and Europe tours but it will still be Pere Ubu and the audience will be witness to the morph that is part of this band's unique history. "Mr. Cintron brings a unique perspective to the songs and we will subsume that into the collective. Pere Ubu is The Borg." The improvisational nature of both the band's composition process and its performances means that all the songs in the set will have to be rewritten and relearned, particularly those from new album Lady From Shanghai (Fire Records). "We will do what others call impossible," Thomas says. "The songs from the new album are anti-logical, played in nonsensical structures and with inscrutable tunings. None of it can be written out or translated. We will devise new patterns of anti-logic. "The remote performance will only be for one song but it's a victory nonetheless," Thomas said. "For a month I've been in my studio working on this project. Everyone says it can't be done... Oh well." Gagarin was to play his own material as a support act in many of the tour's cities. Instead, Mr. Thomas will take to the stage and manage a remote performance of the music. Other members of Pere Ubu will contribute and Mr. Thomas promises to dance. "Moral victories? We got a million of 'em," Thomas said. "And lots of Pyrrhic ones!" Many fans are angered by what they see as an attack on freedom of expression. "With all due respect, it's nothing as grand as that," Thomas said. "Big organizations are comfortable with hierarchical methods of production, but the cultural history of the last hundred years is marked by the emergence and then dominance of a more chaotic folk methodology found in jazz, rock, blues and country music - music of the 'people.' "The visa restrictions are the product of a mind set relevant to the 20s, when the hierarchical paradigm seemed to be the only game in town: orchestras, big bands, show bands, Tin Pan Alley, etc. Thomas Edison's invention of the phonograph/microphone would eventually change all that. "Lawmakers, in response to the paradigm shift, have been encouraged to codify 'artistic merit' as a visa requirement. That's when you get a real mess - faceless government clerks ticking boxes.

"I have trod and will retread this confirming and inquiring work time and again. It's strangely home. Epic in scope. As mighty on the page as on the stage, with scat and logic, this MacDuff leads us on." J.C. Menu, French publisher, L' Association "This book is not a book, it's an alien." Bob Holman, Bowery Poetry Club "Thomas refuses to call the pieces in this book poetry, says they are not the songs. I really don't care what you call them, and it's true that they are unlike anything you've ever read before, but what they are are zings, stings, word bullets that tell stories so condensed that your mind changes on every syllable." The Book of Hieroglyphs The Book of Hieroglyphs by David Thomas goes on sale to readers of ubuprojex.net on Friday, June 8 in its hardback edition. The official launch is scheduled for September, when a paperback edition will also be available. The hardback is a limited edition, 268 pages with a color dust jacket. Bob Holman (Bowery Poetry Club) reports, "I'm having the pleasure of previewing David (Pere Ubu) Thomas' book of nonpoems called The Book of Hieroglyphs. Thomas refuses to call the pieces in this book poetry, says they are not the songs. I really don't care what you call them, and it's true that they are unlike anything you've ever read before, but what they are are zings, stings, word bullets that tell stories so condensed that your mind changes on every syllable."

Two thousand people have signed up to be frozen after death, in the hope that medical science will one day revive them. Murray Ballard visited cryonics centres around the world to photograph the industry at work. Continue reading
Along with the US Army Special Forces of Delta Force, the SEALs have expedited most of the "kinetic", or proactively lethal, antiterrorist operations in Washington's war on terror, operating recently in Afghanistan, Iraq, Yemen and Pakistan. The weaponry they employ is crucial to operational success. So when, in 2007, the unit went looking for an alternative to the Barrett weapons system it already used -- an ultra-high-calibre rifle capable of firing 0.50-inch cartridges at distances beyond 1,200m -- it talked to the best weapons manufacturers across the globe. Eventually it got in touch with a small company with 50 employees, who, it had heard, could make a weapon suitable for its tactical and operational demands.
It didn't buy American; it skirted around the excellence of German and Scandinavian weapons design; and, unsurprisingly, it didn't call the Russians. It went British. It approached an enterprise that embodies a high-tech, designfocused approach, blending traditional UK engineering with the latest technological innovation. Continue reading
The sun is shining on a March morning in London, and Martin Varsavsky appears relaxed in jeans, a white shirt and a navy blue jacket, as though he's heading to the beach near his Menorca home. Varsavsky's dress sense is low-key, but his business style isn't.
As one of the most accomplished entrepreneurs to come to prominence during two decades of European telecoms liberalisation, Varsavsky, 51, has spent the past six years doing something that many industry analysts describe as either pointless or impossible: he is attempting to build a global Wi-Fi network from the bottom up. Varsavsky says his company, Fon, was always intended as a network that would "build itself". By this, he means that Fon always wanted to avoid the "huge capital expenditures" involved in laying cables under streets or placing base stations atop buildings. Continue reading
When scientists violate moral taboos, we expect horrific consequences. It's a trope that goes back at least to Mary Shelley's Frankenstein: however well-intentioned our fictional scientists may be, their disregard for ethical boundaries will produce not a peer-reviewed paper in Science but rather a new race of subhuman killers, a sucking wormhole in space-time, or a sea of malevolent goo.

text: Arwa Tower In the beginning of this year, it occurred to Stephan Siegrist, Thomas Senf and myself (Denis Burdet) to go on an expedition together. Mick Fowler's photo of Arwa Tower didn't play a small role in our choice—the mountain looked magnificent. While the peak was a mystery to us, its surrounding region seemed an incredible nest of unclimbed walls. We left on April 28; Ines Papert and Anita Kolar accompanied us to attempt the French Route on the west face. The base camp was still entirely buried in snow, and from there, the mountain remained beyond our sight. Anita got sick on the approach, but on May 7 we saw the mountain for the first time. We spent the next week equipping the snow slopes. Ice fell frequently from the face, and it was hard to protect ourselves. On May 18, we took our portaledge to Camp I, and continued climbing until May 22, as it snowed and snowed....

Shared Space 2.0

Shared Space looks neat and I'm going to download it and give it a try, but is it really reasonable to ask people to pay for something you describe in your own words as:
"Please please please bear in mind that Shared-Space 2.0 is beta-quality software, and should not be used for anything really important."
