A funeral service is pending with Lauer Funeral Home, Deer Park, for Deer Park resident Charles M. Winn, 87, who passed away on Jan. 1, 2012.
Born on Dec. 25, 1924, in Nampa, Idaho, he worked as a machinist with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and Bureau of Reclamation. He moved to Deer Park 15 years ago.
Mr. Winn was an accomplished woodcraftsman and artist.
A daughter, Sharon Collier of Deer Park, passed away in 2007.
When the going got tough, the Newport Grizzlies turned to "Wiley Time" to get thing moving in the right direction.
Jake Wiley, the Grizzlies' 6-foot-7 senior, scored a game-high 22 points (12 in the second half) as Newport put away the Riverside Rams 50-41 on Saturday in the regular season finale for both teams.
Newport, which led on 19-17 at halftime, opened up a 40-30 lead in the third quarter on the strength of 10 points from Wiley.
The Rams (0-10 in the Northeast A League) refused to go away easily.
The Newport girls basketball team awoke its sleeping offense to pull away from the Riverside Lady Rams 57-35 in the regular season finale for both teams.
The Lady Grizzlies, who trailed 19-14 midway through the second quarter, went on an 11-3 run to open the third quarter to break the game open.
Sparking the Newport run was junior guard Courtney Weise, who buried a pair of 3-pointers. Her second long-range shot gave Newport a 36-22 lead.
Weise would later earn an old fashioned 3-point play to extend the Lady Grizzlies' advantage to 45-24 going into the fourth quarter.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by MajyMadge Trust me, when you open the box you will SMILE. I've always been a Nike girl. But when I saw these BB7700 MID I had to have them. First I got them in black, then I got the white with gray, and now Reebok put out this fly looking purple pair that comes with purple and white laces. The detail is fashion frenzy. They look great with jeggings, running pants, sweats, shorts, yogas, casually versatile. Too comfortable to mention. You don't even know your wearing them. I don't tie the top 2 or 3 eyelets and the shoe looks so sweet. What I really love about these mids is that they aren't too high and look nicely done with a feminine touch. 2/24/14
Rated 5 out of 5Â by SneakerDiva Fresh,, Dope, FLY! Sometime pictures on the internet can be very deceiving. But these Sneakers are probably better than they look on the site. Reebok is definitely back to their glory days! They are fresh, dope, and all that good stuff. They are comfortable and stylish at the same time. My only criticism would be that they get the purple in a size 10! These sneakers made me a believer in the Reebok brand again. 4/10/13
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Mel85 Love this shoe! This shoe is so stylish and comfortable! Laces add a pop of color and these shoes are the perfect height of a high top with shorts! 6/19/13
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Jamonit I love this style. Reebok please make more of these BB7700 Mid. I would love it if they came in wide though. But it matches my 36y.o. hip style. 4/3/14
Rated 4 out of 5Â by AAbell The color I ordered was really more purple than blue. Still cute, but definitely not a true blue. 4/1/14
Rated 4 out of 5Â by Brandy247 Nice Shoe color & style cute, used only for my workouts..... 4/1/14

Kcall and Decibel: Telephony and Messaging for KDE 4
While the KDE Team is busy working on version 4, more and more Linux desktop applications and interfaces keep on appearing. Kcall 0.7 and Decibel 0.5 bring integrated desktop software for Computer Telephony Integration (CTI), VoIP and real-time messaging to KDE.
The Decibel real-time messaging framework, which has now reached version 0.5, combines CTI, VoIP, chat and other instant messaging solutions. As a D-Bus-based API it also complies with the Telepathy specifications and provides interfaces to KDE applications without integrated telephony or chat functions. From the user's point of view, Decibel provides a standardized control center for all accounts, connections and settings in the real-time communications field.
Just a few days later, Kcall 0.7 was released, the first port of an application with Decibel support for KDE 4. Kcall is a telephony client which integrates with Kontact and uses its phonebook giving KDE users the ability to establish connections by clicking on a phone number in the address book. Kcall outputs ring tones or pops up a dialog to signal incoming calls via VoIP, for example. Connection data and accounts are managed by Decibel.

The real shocker is not the fact that only four senators support the Part Time legislature; it's the revelation that seven of them have no position at all.Where the heck has the Gang of Seven been for the last 40 years as this is not exactly a new idea?But there they were diving into the protective high grass while 23 of the senate's 38 members participated in an informal survey this week without giving it a second thought.Sitting comfortably on the fence are GOP Senators Phil Pavlou, Jim Marleau, TonyaSchuitmaker and Judy Emmons. Right alongside them Detroit Democrats Tupac Hunter, Morris Hood III and Virgil Smith.The last two had daddys who served in the house and senate and betya they'd be shocked to see their offspring unable or unwilling to oppose this concept.It could be the other Republicans not taking a stand could be involved in close primary elections and perhaps that explains the hesitation to wade in. Ms. Schuitmaker, lacing up on her dancing shoes, reflects the PTL was up to the people adding, "I'm still working on a position."Take your time. The primary election is not until August.Among the 17 voting "no" are the two senate leaders. GOP leader Randy Richardville noted while the whip count was underway that "Everyone will be a "no" when I'm done talking to them." Sen. Gretchen Whitmer thinks it's a bad idea, too. The other opponents include some pretty conservative senators including the GOP FloorLeader Arlan Meekhoff. The others are Senators Jack Brandenburg, (Macomb County), David Robertson (Genesee County) and Mike Green who waffled a little before saying he was opposed.The four PTL "yes" votes include Sen. John Proos (West Michigan) Joe Hune (Livingston County) David Hildenbrand (West Michigan) and Tea Party favorite from Canton Sen. Patrick Colbeck although he explains he'd like to see the details.Sen. Bruce Caswell (R-Hillsdale) had an interesting response, "I don't care. I can live with anything."But it was Macomb County Senator Tory Rocca who developed a severe case of lock jaw when are porter sought his stance. He uttered nary word and walked right pass the somewhat startled correspondent. Not once, but twice. Maybe he's worried about a primary opponent, too?But based on this survey, you can see why the folks who want to reduce the house and senate to 60 days a year at a salary of $35,000 are not asking lawmakers to do it. Hence their petition drive to place it on the statewide November ballot.

About 7,000 supporters have signed an online petition aimed at saving UberTaxi and avoiding other proposed regulations that would impact the company's popular black car service.
The D.C. Taxicab Commission has passed new regulations to streamline how digital payments are processed when it comes to e-hailing. It's all part of the "Modern Taxi Meter System" and it goes into effect June 1.
Uber says that may mean the end of Uber Taxi because the system would have to work with payment providers who are integrated with taxi hardware.
"There's no other city or technology company that has successfully integrated in the way D.C. is asking," says Uber D.C. General Manager Rachel Holt. "We've never seen it done and we're not sure it's possible."
According to Ron Linton, Chairman of the D.C. Taxicab Commission, it's all about protecting customers from credit card fraud. He says Uber's comments to the commission on the matter "suggest they want to be totally excused from the regulatory system."
D.C. Councilmember Mary Cheh (D-Ward 3) says she plans to meet with both Uber and the Taxicab Commission this week to try and sort things out.
Within the next few weeks, additional proposed regulations will come up for consideration which would impact Uber's black car service. If approved, the company would be required to hand over ridership data. Linton says it will be used to inform the commission about service, travel times and fare protection for research purposes. Uber calls it snooping.
The company would also be banned from using the Toyota Prius. Linton says the vehicle does not meet minimum weight requirements.

One week, a writer essentially says that Colin Kaepernick's tattoos make him look like a black convict QB and it's a shame because he seems so white and Tebow-ish, the next week RGIII is not black enough because he's marrying a white girl. Just another fun sports month in post-racial America!
But we're not here to join in the crusade against Rob Parker, or even what he said. Not exactly. When someone wrote that Kaepernick tattoo column, I said this:
It's one of the most obnoxious traits of the media in 2012. One stupid person writes something horrible, and then the next day we have to read 200 rebuttals to the stupid thing that everyone knew was stupid in the first place, all to prove to the world how not-stupid the rest of us are. (I've probably done this 100 different times, so I'm as guilty as anyone.) In the process, sure, the guy gets endless traffic and more fame than he deserves -- but that's not even the problem. By rebutting his horrible opinion, you promote it, and then it becomes a Thing that people are saying, and suddenly "Colin Kapernick is facing criticism about his tattoos this week."
No, he's not.
Only one stupid asshole said that.
ESPN's Rob Parker is this week's stupid asshole, so let's not pretend he even deserves a serious rebuttal. He's already been suspended by ESPN. If you have no idea what we're talking about, just know that it was a First Take segment that involved his white fiance, the Republican Party, and Tiger Woods. Robert Griffin is "kinda black, but he's not really" in Parker's words.
But I don't blame Parker. He works for a show that exists to spark conversations about people's blackness, even if it's not usually this explicit. As Deadspin once described First Take:
... the new First Take was supposed to be a triumph of format over circumstance. ... First Take's genius -- if you can call it that -- was to subtly raise the stakes by pitting Skip Bayless against black guests and letting the subtext, white grievance vs. "honky, please," do all the work.
They are the WORST. You can watch this show every single day and there will be 10 different opinions that are obnoxious enough to leave you outraged.
Parker may have careened through the guardrails on race-baiting highway onto a road that's more basically racist and ridiculous, but don't be mad at him. Be mad because he will probably not be fired, and because ESPN and First Take found out this afternoon that race-baiting debates about Robert Griffin III are the new outrage catnip, so this is just the beginning. Rob Parker's mistake was being too clumsy and obvious, but he was just doing the only thing that's ever made First Take a success. They are "habitual line steppers," in Charlie Murphy's words.
The good news: The show's ratings were declining as of last summer, and after a year where the president of ESPN publicly regrets the amount of Tebow coverage on his network, it's hard to imagine that the worldwide leader's worst offender improved all that much. Nobody cares what Skip Bayless thinks of LeBron James. Stupidity dies because the market for it dies.
Nobody pays attention to Sarah Palin anymore, Keith Olbermann's been fired over and over again, Fox News fired Glenn Beck, Stephen A. Smith's talk show got canceled, First Take will be recycled into a completely different show within the next year or two, Skip Bayless will be stashed somewhere else at ESPN until his contract expires, and nobody will read another David Whitley column until he writes something racist enough to get him fired. Thursday was probably the first time you've heard Rob Parker's name, and sometime in the next few months you'll forget it forever. It's a case of diminishing returns; bit by bit, people stop caring as much when someone who's known for saying dumb things says something dumb. Then the dumb person disappears, but by then, you barely even notice.
"You've just got to keep long-term, short-term in mind," said ESPN's president this week about overhauling his network's Tebow-trolling priorities.
Even ESPN understands that this stuff fails eventually. For now, it's just funny that we're talking about a black man trotted out on Skip Bayless' pandering variety show, asking someone else if he's "down for the cause." This is how he spends his life, and he doesn't even see the irony. I'm not mad at Rob Parker, I just feel bad for him.

UPDATE: Newport firm's shock at horsemeat find
Updated 2:31pm Wednesday 27th February 2013 in News
A NEWPORT supplier said it was "a huge shock" after horsemeat was found in the products supplies to a Welsh council.
Pembrokeshire council has withdrawn all mince products from its schools, care homes and day centres with immediate effect after horse was found in some of Welsh Bros Ltd's products.
Meat supplied by the Gwent firm to a consortium of councils - including Pembrokeshire - was found to have horse meat present after tests.
Council bosses from the West Wales local authority said they had been given assurances by their other suppliers that their meats were fully traceable.
Meanwhile, Welsh Bros described the horse meat find as a huge shock.
Managing director Alan Haycock, from the company based on the Leeway Industrial Estate, said: "We received an email about this last night.
"A test came back positive.
"We haven't seen the certificate yet.
"But this is all under investigation with trading standards now and we are waiting for further information.'' It is believed the meat involved was distributed in December 2012.
"We're very busy contacting our customers now and letting them know,'' added Mr Haycock.
Pembrokeshire Council said the mince "may'' have been supplied to schools as well as council-run residential homes and day centres within the county, so it decided to withdraw the affected products.
Affected batch tested 'produced three months ago' - statement
Welsh Bros Ltd issued a formal statement saying: "The batch affected was produced nearly three months ago. Welsh Bros Foods did have a clear test result for frozen free flow minced beef on 17.01.13. We submitted these samples when the horse meat scandal first broke in January.
"We have since submitted further samples which we are still awaiting test results for.
"Welsh Bros has been provided with test results from other authorities who have tested more recent batches of our free flow minced beef and these have been reported as being clear.
"We therefore believe at this stage that this is an isolated incident.
"We have today issued a withdraw notice with the Food Standards Agency for frozen free flow minced beef produced between 13.12.12 which was the pack date of the suspect test and 17.01.13 which is the date we achieved our clear test result."

of food been poisoning us for profit . I believe the common denominator is the many hundreds of new chemicals entering the environment every year and
through lackadaisical policing of the food chain, augmented by the profit regardless brigade, horse meat pretending to be beef is but an example,God alone knows what else we are being fed.

- Blevins designated to make room for Outman
- A's to recall Moscoso for start on Tuesday
- Jackson makes first career start at third for A's
- Worth noting
ANAHEIM -- A's lefty Brian Fuentes criticized Bob Geren's "unorthodox managing" after the club's 4-1 loss to the Angels on Monday and noted the skipper has "zero" communication with him, making for a "pretty drastic difference" when comparing past managers.
The 35-year-old veteran reliever, owner of 196 career saves on five Major League teams, suffered his fourth loss in as many appearances on Monday and his career-high seventh of the season when he was brought into a 1-1 game and watched his baserunner score the Angels' go-ahead run on Torii Hunter's double off righty Michael Wuertz.
It marked the fourth straight tied-game situation for Fuentes and the third consecutive on the road, the first two coming in San Francisco. He hasn't had a save opportunity since May 8.
"There's just no communication," he said. "Two games on the road, bring the closer in a tied game, with no previous discussions of doing so. And then, tonight, in the seventh inning, I get up. I haven't stretched, I haven't prepared myself. If there was some communication beforehand I would be ready to come into the game -- which I was, when I came into the game, I was ready. Just lack of communication. I don't think anybody really knows which direction he's headed."
Normally reserved for the most part, Fuentes said his unsettled feelings about Geren's managerial style surfaced just recently, as influenced by the happenings in San Francisco.
"I think the games in San Francisco were some unorthodox managing," he said. "I thought it was maybe the National League thing, that maybe that had something to do with it, but tonight was pretty unbelievable."
Fuentes has acted the part of closer in Andrew Bailey's absence this season, but before Monday's game, Geren was questioned about that role.
"I can use anybody late in the game," Geren said. "It's been that way. Everybody knows that."
Fuentes, though, has clearly been the go-to guy in save situations, having racked up nine saves -- good for fifth in the American League -- in 11 opportunities. And he directly made it known on Monday night that Geren told him at the beginning of the season that he is, in fact, the club's closer.
"Yes, from get-go, I've been closing," he said.
Thus, when asked what went through his mind when the phone rang in the seventh inning in Anaheim, Fuentes admitted thinking bullpen coach Rick Rodriguez "misspoke."
"I thought it was some sort of miscommunication, but he said, 'No, you're up,' so I got up and cranked it up," he said. "You can't try to guess along with them. Very unpredictable."
The lack of communication should change, Fuentes admitted, before adding, "It's not my decision."
"I can't predict the future," he said. "If he decides to take that step, then there will be communication. If not, I'll make sure I'm ready from the first."
Does the air need to be cleared with Geren?
"Some people might think so," Fuentes said. "At this point, I have nothing to say."
The southpaw's comments come in the midst of an already frustrating time for the A's, who have lost six straight games. Geren, who was addressed before Fuentes' briefing with reporters but not after, said he used the lefty in the eighth because the upcoming at-bats for Angels hitters Erick Aybar and Bobby Abreu were "perfect for a left-hander."
"You figure you go with him for a couple guys," Geren said. "If he gets them both out, maybe let him try to finish the inning. If not, you have your right-hander for Hunter."
Blevins designated to make room for Outman
ANAHEIM -- Hoping to halt a season-high five-game losing streak, the A's on Monday looked to a familiar face on the mound in the opener of a three-game set against the Angels.
The club recalled lefty Josh Outman from Triple-A Sacramento to take the injured Brandon McCarthy's rotation slot and designated Jerry Blevins for assignment all the while keeping him on the 40-man roster.
It marks Outman's first Major League appearance since June 19, 2009, when he left his start with a strained left elbow following a solid showing via a 4-1 record and 3.48 ERA. The southpaw underwent Tommy John surgery later in the month and missed the entire 2010 season.
Outman, 26, was a potential fifth-starter option in camp this year after a lengthy rehab process but struggled with mechanics and command, which led to his demotion. He went 4-1 with a 4.78 ERA in eight starts for Sacramento, walking 27 and striking out 30 in 37 2/3 innings.
A's manager Bob Geren said Outman is stretched out enough to avoid any pitch-count limitations and noted he hopes to see the same successful results from the southpaw as he did from right-handed reliever Joey Devine, who traveled a similar Tommy John surgery rehab path and has tallied two shutout innings since his Friday promotion.
"I talked with Josh quite a bit today, and I talked to [Sacramento manager] Darren Bush about him," Geren said. "He's excited because it's been a long road for him coming back. He was somewhat healthy in the spring, but he needed to improve his game, and hopefully it's the same story we saw with Devine. He came up, after battling a long road, and threw the ball well for us."
Outman, sporting No. 88, represents one of two new additions to the A's rotation, as Geren announced on Monday that right-hander Guillermo Moscoso has earned Tuesday's start in place of Tyson Ross.
McCarthy (shoulder) and Ross (oblique) are expected to miss at least a handful of weeks, giving Outman and Moscoso plenty of time to prove their big league worth.
Blevins, meanwhile, made just one appearance in his three-day stint with the A's -- his second of the season -- before Monday's designation. The lefty is expected to return to Sacramento.
A's to recall Moscoso for start on Tuesday
ANAHEIM -- The A's on Monday filled out 40 percent of their previously depleted rotation, calling upon Josh Outman to start their series opener in Anaheim before manager Bob Geren announced right-hander Guillermo Moscoso will get the nod Tuesday, marking his first Major League start.
Moscoso has not officially been brought on board, but the 27-year-old Venezuelan hurler is expected to join the 25-man roster on Tuesday, when the A's are likely to option a member of their eight-man bullpen to make room.
Moscoso, who is already on the team's 40-man roster, boasts big league experience in the bullpen, having made 11 appearances with the Rangers, including 10 in 2009 and one last season. Acquired from Texas for another Minor League pitcher this offseason, the righty compiled a 3-2 record and 4.02 ERA in eight games -- seven starts -- for Triple-A Sacramento.
"He's been pretty consistent," Geren said. "He's throwing strikes, and he's ready to go. He has a good breaking ball, and when he throws it at the right speed, it's pretty good. He throws a changeup any time and has pretty good command of his fastball. He's off to a decent start."
Moscoso will take the rotation spot of Tyson Ross, who suffered a left oblique strain just seven pitches into his start on Thursday.
Jackson makes first career start at third for A's
ANAHEIM -- Conor Jackson's expected role as a reserve outfielder for the A's has already expanded immensely in the first two months of the season, and the latest proof was on display Monday, when he received his first career start at third base.
With Kevin Kouzmanoff nursing a right groin strain and veteran Mark Ellis in need of a day off after starting 10 consecutive games, manager Bob Geren inserted Andy LaRoche at second base while giving Jackson the hot corner.
Jackson is no stranger to the position, though, having made four Major League appearances there in late innings, including twice this season and twice in 2007 with the D-backs. Even more, he's been warned that his presence might be needed there.
"I've been out there the past four weeks, knowing that a situation like this could come up," he said before Monday's game. "Especially with Kouz out and Ellis playing quite a few games recently, it seems like if there's any time to do it, this is a perfect time.
"It's not like I'm being thrown into the fire here. I've had time to take ground balls, and I'm going to take it like any other position. It's a little anxiety, more than anything. But I'm sure once I get that first ground ball, I'll be fine."
Jackson has started 23 games at four positions -- including 13 in right field, five in left field and four at first base -- and is realizing that his versatility has led to a good chunk of playing time after being limited to just 90 games over the previous two seasons because of illness and injury.
"The chance to be able to play more than I expected is really nice," he said. "It's hard to sit for a few days in a row, and obviously we've got a great group of bench guys."
"He's worked hard the past month for the possibility that this would happen," Geren said. "Once you get into the game, that's where the real experience comes. He's played first and played extremely well over there, and it's pretty much the same thing, he just has to throw the ball this time. And he throws the ball well anyway. He has a good arm."
Kouzmanoff, Geren said, was not available for Monday's game, but he took a handful of ground balls and participated in batting practice earlier in the day.
Worth noting
Right-hander Andrew Bailey (forearm), making his second rehab appearance for Triple-A Sacramento on Monday, struck out one and hit a batter while throwing 13 pitches -- eight strikes -- in a scoreless seventh inning.
Ryan Sweeney drew a start in left field over regular Josh Willingham on Monday because of his exceptional career numbers against Angels starter Jered Weaver, manager Bob Geren said. Sweeney entered the game 7-for-20 lifetime against the right-hander.

Log in to your Library account
The work of Library Services is critical to UCL's reputation for global excellence in research. We provide access to world class collections, physical libraries where researchers can develop their ideas individually or in collaboration, guidance in research and information skills, and tools to help manage research output. Our expertise contributes to the development of new areas of research and new methodologies, supporting and helping to shape UCL's research strategy.
Support for research is a core activity for us and will continue to be so. In 2009 we surveyed researchers across UCL and the responses to that survey have helped inform our strategic direction. During the strategy period we will work to improve facilities and collections for researchers engaged in all areas, from traditional individual study in a single discipline to collaborative and interdisciplinary projects involving partners from inside and outside UCL. We will review the way we use our space, the way we develop and provide access to our research collections, and the way we manage research outputs to ensure that they provide the best possible fit to the needs of researchers. We will promote the skills that library staff can contribute to UCL's research activity and we will continue to play a leading role in the national and international research library agenda.
Research collections
We will continue to build on our strong research collections, aligning them closely with UCL's research strategies at departmental and faculty level. Selective digitisation of unique research resources will help promote the collections and to generate new research ideas.
Systems and infrastructure
Library Services will be an active partner in the development of infrastructure that supports new types of research and publishing and maximises the impact of UCL's research. Streamlined discovery systems will make it easier for researchers to locate and access the material they need.
Professional skills
Library staff have a great deal to contribute to the research process. We will raise awareness of staff expertise in specialist professional areas such as IPR, bibliometrics, and the management of primary research data, as well as the traditional expertise of subject specialist staff which has always been highly valued within UCL. Library Services will draw on its substantial experience of externally funded project work to collaborate with academic staff working on innovative approaches to research.
External relations and partnerships
Building on our reputation as an internationally important research collection, Library Services will continue to work at the highest level nationally and internationally to support the UK's research agenda. We will put mechanisms in place to support UCL's joint research activities with partners wherever they are, and work actively with professional bodies to encourage a strategic approach to the management of research collections in the UK and internationally. Promoting open access to publicly funded research will be a key priority in our work.

Since March, city councilor Tom Ashe has been pushing for an ordinance that would require pawn shops to register the items they get in a computer database.
According to police, the computer program called NESPIN, the New England State Police Information Network, would help solve cases.
Business owners told CBS 3 that it would send customers out the door.
"State police have developed this NESPIN program," said Springfield police Commissioner William Fitchet. "It's very comprehensive, the confidentiality is secured. It's a very safe and secure network."
But business owners, like Michael Sarkis of the Springfield Jewelry and Diamond Exchange, believe the network is the problem. He said his customers would have to have their picture taken, stored and available to police departments in New England and beyond.
"You can't profile someone selling something used as hypothetically being stolen or not stolen, valuable or invaluable," said Sarkis. "That's why the constitution was written. People have a right to privacy."
Sarkis said his company already keeps a log of the used jewelry that they buy. He believes the added computer element would drive business away.
"Ninety-nine percent of my customers would walk out the door," Sarkis stated. "They do not want to be profiled. They feel like they're being discriminated against. It's a complete violation of people's privacy."
This case should come to a head on Monday, Oct. 21, when Ashe will move for a vote from the entire council, to bring the ordinance to the floor. Fitchet said a yes vote cannot come soon enough.
"Every day that goes by is a day that we're not using technology of the police department and other police departments, working with state police and working with their program," said Fitchet.
Along with using the computer program, the ordinance would require pawn shops to hold used jewelry for 30 days, as opposed to the ten days where it stands right now.
Ashe said that is consistent with other cities similar in size with Springfield.

Why use private properties and getter methods vs. using public properties
I'm trying to get my head wrapped around all the concepts of OOP. I have heard that it is better to use private properties and use getting methods rather then using public properties. It seems like it has the same result but I am trying to understand why one is any better then the other. In the two class samples below I have done it both ways and wanted to see if someone could tell me why the second one would be better then the first one.
PHP Code:
class Movie
public $movie_id
public $movie_name;
public $rating;
public $genre;
public $director;
public function getMovie($id)
$sql = "select * from movie where movie_id = $this->movie_id";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$this->movie_name = $row['movie_name'];
$this->rating = $row['rating'];
$this->genre = $row['genre'];
$this->director = $row['director'];
class Movie
private $movie_id
private $movie_name;
private $rating;
private $genre;
private $director;
public function getMovie()
$sql = "select * from movie where movie_id = $this->movie_id";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$this->movie_name = $row['movie_name'];
$this->rating = $row['rating'];
$this->genre = $row['genre'];
$this->director = $row['director'];
public function getMovieName()
return $this->movie_name;
public function getRating()
return $this->rating;
public function getGenre()
return $this->genre;
public function getDirector()
return $this->director;

In your simple example, not much difference. And I guess in many cases still not much difference.
What if you wanted to log when a property was set or "got"? Using getters and setters you could easily keep track of things.

Your first example implies there is no contract with the end user of this class (imagine you work in a team, and you are only there for 3 months).
This means anyone can purposely, or accidentally do this:
PHP Code:
$a = new Movie(23);
$a->movie_name = "Any old crap";
Your second example makes it clear that nobody can set movie_name, and the only way to get movie_name is to call the appropriate method.
What is more, if you or they extend that class then they also cannot gain access to those members without using your carefully crafted methods.
So, amongst all the other reasons why you would use getters and setters you are also signalling your intent to others, and in doing so you are to some degree (some would say to a great degree) you are documenting what you have done.
Hope this puts get/set into some context, but be aware that they should be used wisely are getters and setters evil?

the text book reasons for getters and setters is encapsulation, meaning that you can keep variables private from outside tampering so that they are never invalid.
Unless you have a specific need for them don't, the less code the better.--

It's about the answers.
The public properties will be easily read by everyone, no questions asked.
The protected properties, everyone will have to inquire to get an answer.
It's also about the questions.
The question one is asking may not be so straightforward.
The answer to that question could be a little more complex and it may not be held in one single property.
Jul 22, 2012, 12:17 #7
Part of the reason is data integrity -- a setter method can check values before allowing a property to be set. Part of the reason is complex setter behavior -- setting one property might include setting another property. For example, setCreatedOn might also call setExpiresOn. And another reason is future maintenance. When you first built your app, maybe you didn't have an expiresOn property, so you thought it would be safe to set the createdOn property directly. But as your app evolves, and now setting createdOn needs to do more work and therefore needs to be changed to a setter method, that means everywhere in your application where you accessed the property directly needs to be updated. It would have been a lot easier on yourself if you had just made it a setter in the first place."First make it work. Then make it better."

Setters can include validation to ensure that the content is always valid when stored and that any other criteria for being allowed to update the value are also met.
Getters can be use specific and provide the required escaping when required.
Also it allows you to use any internal format you like - a simple example would be a date field where the internal value is often stored as a number and the getters and setters convert between that internal number format and the various formats that a date might be in.Stephen J Chapman

After joining the Los Angeles D-Fenders midseason, swingman Terrence Williams is most deserving of the NBA D-League's "Impact Player" award.
Failing to stick on the NBA level thus far, perhaps Shawne Williams will continue to help his own cause if he can step up in the D-League playoffs for the Los Angeles D-Fenders.
Adonis Thomas joins fellow D-League prospect Dewayne Dedmon, as the pair signed 10-day contracts with the Orlando Magic.
24 hours after Terrence Williams set the D-League season-high with 50 points, Kevin Murphy had his best game as a member of the Idaho Stampede, pouring in 51 points on 21-for-33 shooting.
NBA veteran Terrence Williams set an LA D-Fenders' franchise record with 50 points in a win over the Idaho Stampede on Friday night.
The Nets discussed the possibility of picking up Terrence Williams for their D-League affiliate in Springfield, but ultimately passed and the 6'6" combo guard with a checkered past was taken off...
Mutual interest between Terrence Williams and Maine Red Claws
The early results are very positive for the Celtics.
Boston Celtics guard Terrence Williams has been waived by the Boston Celtics.
Jerome Jordan is a legit seven footer who was a second round pick in 2010 and might have been higher had he stayed in school an extra year.
Terrence Williams was in Boston for workouts and wanted to at least partially set the record straight.
Terrence Williams was arrested after being accused of making threats with a gun during a child visitation on Sunday afternoon.

Situation Report - Liberia
February 2011
Presbyterian Disaster Assistance (PDA) is responding to the displacement and refugee crisis in Liberia in cooperation with our mission partner, Concerned Christian Community (CCC).
Since the beginning of December 2010, political turmoil has caused between 25,000 and 50,000 Cote d'Ivoire refugees, as well as 25,000 Liberians living in Cote d'Ivoire, to enter Liberia. The number of refugees is creating pressures for Liberian authorities and for host communities. Many villages are hosting as many refugees as residents. In some villages, refugees even outnumber residents. An example is the border village of Loguato, where 5,307 refugees are living with just 1,743 locals.
PDA One Great Hour of Sharing funds are helping CCC in providing:
- immediate food and non-food item emergency relief assistance to 2,000-3,000 vulnerable families;
- trauma counseling and HIV/AIDS awareness services to more than 500 women and girls;
- emergency mobile medical services to the refugees; and
- limited water and sanitation assistance through the construction of hand pumps and emergency latrines.
How you can help
You can stand in the "GAP" for disaster survivors and help the church in this response.

Organisations recognise that giving people the ability to work from anywhere, any time, is a win-win for everyone.
Over the last decade we have witnessed an explosion in the number of people accessing high-speed Internet and a dramatic increase in personal mobility. Against this backdrop, organisations are determined to reduce business and IT costs, create greater workplace flexibility, increase employee attraction and retention, and improve support for an increasingly remote and mobile workforce. These technology trends and the resulting benefits are a catalyst for redefining the traditional workplace.
As the perception of work changes from a place we go, to what we do, organisations recognise that giving people the ability to work from anywhere, at any time, is a win-win for everyone. This has been made possible through the implementation of a workshifting strategy. Workshifting is about allowing people to choose the ideal time, place and device for their work. It is transforming the way modern organisations operate. In fact, it is no longer an aspiration for people, it is a requirement. The best thing about workshifting is that it benefits both people and organisations.
Decoupling the work 'place'
In the Citrix Global Workshifting Index, 93 per cent of senior IT decision-makers stated that they intend to provide flexible work environments by 2013. A key driver for this was the reduction of business costs and the ability to make smarter use of workspace. By separating the physical workspace from the logical workspace, IT organisations and facilities teams can work together to find the best mix of cost savings, employee productivity, and satisfaction to meet the unique needs of their organisation.
This is great news for organisations and employees because the costs saved by reducing the real estate footprint can be utilised to make workspaces smarter, enriching the work experience for all employees. Creating a more inspiring workspace, focused on collaborative design, improves both productivity and morale.
The new smarter workspace gives people the ability to securely access data and applications wherever, whenever and however they choose, while allowing IT to centrally manage them. With alternative workplace strategies, the restrictions of a traditional office-centric workplace are removed.
Furthermore, even during a business disruption or in an emergency, mobile work strategies allow people to access the resources they require from any location. In the Citrix Global Security Index, more than 90 per cent of organisations agreed that desktop virtualisation is one of the primary ways to meet business continuity requirements securely.
Mobile, flexible and secure
As people increasingly choose to work from varied locations, the endpoint environment becomes dispersed and complex. This requires an IT infrastructure with the ability to power the modern mobile workforce. By centralising data in the data-centre, organisations can provide people with on-demand and secure granular access to critical business information, when and where they need it. When complemented by collaboration services, such as online meetings and file sharing, the productivity of the workforce increases even more.
Improved security is a mainstay of a desktop virtualisation infrastructure. It provides the compliance and privacy foundation required for organisations that are implementing workshifting. In fact, according to those surveyed in the Citrix Global Security Index, 92 per cent of organisations have adopted, or are adopting, desktop virtualisation to improve information security.
This is particularly important for tele-workers logging on from home devices and potentially unsecured networks. If the device is lost or stolen, there is a reduced risk to enterprise data as it is not stored on the end point. Desktop virtualisation can also help to protect enterprise data from malicious threats and maintain regulatory compliance.
Getting the balance right
Workshifting eligibility can vary depending on the job role and individual performance. Some job roles, such as a retail clerks, machine operators, and financial traders, require an on-site physical presence. However, the benefits of teleworking are still widely recognised. An encouraging 63 per cent of respondents in the Citrix Global Workshifting Index indicated that they were implementing workshifting to allow people (teleworkers) to work from home.
Therefore, workshifting can play a critical part in attracting top talent and broadening the labour pool. By lifting geographic restrictions, and enabling work from any location, new employees can still be fully integrated into a company's operations. Thus, an organisation has its pick of top talent and can strategically tap into lower-cost labour pools, further reducing costs. In fact, half of the organisations in the Citrix Global Workshifting Survey recognised the advantages of workshifting for attracting and retaining top talent.
Mobile workstyles also enable people to work at the time that best suits them and their workload commitments. This benefits split-shift, part-time, work-at-home and other workers that require optimum flexibility and the ability to provide a rapid response to unexpected situations at work. Not only does this increase the potential coverage hours, it allows people the domestic flexibility they want, and need, to maintain a good work-life balance.
By allowing people to work when it is most convenient for them, workshifting can significantly improve work-life balance. This can increase employee satisfaction and retention rates — keeping trained, skilled and experienced people productive. In the Citrix Global Workshifting Index, 64 per cent of those questioned cited increased productivity as a common goal. Through workshifting, an organisation can also offer third parties — from contractors to outsourcing partners — secure, selective access to data and applications, facilitating integration with the organization.
Enabling productivity
Desktop virtualisation, online meetings, file sharing and collaboration can provide organisations with the foundation on which to build workshifting strategies. Smarter and more collaborative workspaces are transforming the way business is done. Workshifting has enabled modern workstyles, reduced business costs and powered the adoption of flexible working. Although the drivers are unique to each organisation, two of the top three primary reasons to implement desktop virtualisation are linked to workshifting.
Mobile workstyles mean people can work at optimum times, locations and on the most appropriate device. This improves productivity and the ability to balance work-life needs. Organisations now have the tools to be more productive, agile and flexible, resulting in the attraction and retention of both a cost-efficient, engaged and highly skilled workforce.

Joe Wilson on Drugs
Republican Representative (SC-2)
OnTheIssues.org interprets the 2006 NORML scores as follows:
National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Law's mission is to move public opinion sufficiently to achieve the repeal of marijuana prohibition so that the responsible use of cannabis by adults is no longer subject to penalty.
NORML is a nonprofit, public-interest lobby that for more than 30 years has provided a voice for those Americans who oppose marijuana prohibition. We represent the interests of the tens of millions of Americans who smoke marijuana responsibly and believe the recreational and medicinal use of marijuana should no longer be a crime.
NORML supports the removal of all criminal penalties for the private possession & responsible use of marijuana by adults, including the cultivation for personal use, and the casual nonprofit transfers of small amounts. This model is called "decriminalization."
NORML additionally supports the development of a legally controlled market for marijuana, where consumers could purchase it from a safe, legal and regulated source. This model is referred to as "legalization."
NORML believes that marijuana smoking is not for kids and should only be used responsibly by adults. As with alcohol consumption, it must never be an excuse for misconduct or other bad behavior. Driving or operating heavy equipment while impaired from marijuana should be prohibited.
NORML strongly supports the right of patients to use marijuana as a medicine when their physician recommends it to relieve pain and suffering.
Lastly, NORML supports the right of farmers to commercially cultivate hemp for industrial purposes, such as food and fiber production.

Does Barnes & Noble Have A Future?
Dana Skold • Wed, Aug. 13 • 15 Comments
- B&N's sales, performance, and accounting metrics are terrible.
- Nook has no meaningful future and B&N's core business is flawed.
- B&N management has no plans to address any of these challenges.
- B&N might still survive if it embraces a different vision of itself.
