Nintendo 3DS and 3DS XL to get first major refresh, wider 3D viewing angles promised29 August 2014
Nintendo has announced new models of its 3DS handheld consoles, the 3DS and 3DS XL. Called "New 3DS" and "New 3DS XL", the consoles will feature more buttons than before, but their major technical enhancement comes with the 3D screen. It will have wider... >>
5 reasons why Nintendo's Wii U has risen from the dead30 July 2014
Nintendo's first quarter financial year 2015 results don't make for pretty reading for the company. It posted losses of 9.924 billion yen, which amounts to a staggering £57.33 million down the Suwannee in the last three months - from April to June. However,... >>
Wii U not dead, console sales dramatically increase but Nintendo still hemorrhaging cash30 July 2014
Just when we all thought the Wii U was on its way out, year on year sales of the console have more than tripled. Nintendo sold 510,000 units globally between April and June this year in comparison to just 160,000 in the same period in 2013. Admittedly,... >>
PS4 still outselling Xbox One regardless of Microsoft price drop, but Nintendo is the winner in June18 July 2014
Microsoft is not having that good a time of late. Not only has it announced it needs to make 18,000 of its employees redundant globally and, in the process, shut down its Xbox Entertainment Studios and scrap plans for future video content, but it's... >>
Kids ditching Nintendo 3DS in favour of tablets as go-to gaming devices27 June 2014
The children have spoken and it's a damning day for Nintendo as the majority prefer to game on tablets rather than on the dedicated 3DS. This is the first time tablets have overtaken Nintendo's 3DS as the most popular personal games unit owned by UK children.... >>
Super Smash Bros for Wii U preview: Want to fight as your Mii against Pac-Man? Now you can17 June 2014
There's a line in The Who's Won't Get Fooled Again that could apply to Super Smash Bros for the Wii U: "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss." Fans of the N64 original, plus Melee and Brawl, will find that they are on very familiar ground with the... >>
Splatoon preview: Going 4 v 4 in Nintendo's mad new multiplayer skirmish16 June 2014
You can trust Nintendo to pull some mad cap games out of the bag during E3 each more, perhaps more so than its major rivals. However, once we saw Sunset Overdrive on Xbox One we thought Insomniac and Microsoft had stolen the thunder on the bonkers front.... >>
Yoshi's Woolly World preview: The Wii U surprise hit of E316 June 2014
Much has been said and written about the struggles of Nintendo's Wii U console to sell in significant numbers, some, ourselves included, have even mulled over the possibility that the machine is in its death throes. Try telling that to Nintendo though,... >>
Mario Maker preview: Building our own Mario levels, every Nintendo fan's dream12 June 2014
One of the more quirky Wii U titles trailed during the E3 special edition of Nintendo Direct was Mario Maker. Not just a game, it allows you to build and then play your own Mario Bros levels and, presumably, then share them with a community of other gamers.... >>
Mario Maker revealed during Nintendo Direct, build your own Mario games on Wii U10 June 2014
A rumour started to fly around those attending E3 yesterday that a new Mario game was to make its debut on the 3DS during the show. Now, thanks to a "first look" during Nintendo's annual online livestream event, Nintendo Direct, we know what it is. Mario... >>

End-of-Life Decision Making: Case 2
by Elizabeth Menkin
When you arrive at the skilled nursing facility to see Ms. Long, she looks very thin, and the nurse tells you that there is a large necrotic pressure sore on her sacrum. The aides are repositioning her so that the speech therapist can do her evaluation. There is an IV running fluids in the patient's left arm, and her right arm lies limp on the bed. Some of the time she seems to look at a face and track movements, but sometimes not. She does not give any answers to simple questions, either verbally or with nods or shaking her head, and does not consistently look at the person who is talking to her. She does not give any social smile in response to the speech therapist's attempts to engage her. You notice that the patient grimaces when she's moved, and cries in apparent pain when she is rolled on her back. She opens her mouth when offered a straw but does not suck on the straw. She takes a small amount of ice cream that is offered by spoon, but after two more tries by the speech therapist she pushes it away and slaps using her left hand.
Elizabeth Menkin is a physician in geriatric and internal medicine at Kaiser-Permanente San Jose/Santa Teresa. She is the founder of Coda Alliance, a Silicon Valley community coalition for end-of-life care.

Diner Reviews
Great food. Great service. But
most of all amazing decor. The place is an experience!!!"
Dined on 8/19/2014
The place was like the restaurant
out of Hello Dolly. Everything was EXCELLENT."
Dined on 8/19/2014
The Madonna Inn has been a part of
our celebrations for over 25 years. You can count on excellent dinners, great service, wonderful ambiance, and a worthwhile experience if you haven't been here. Thank you Madonna Gold Rush Steak House. You've done it again."
Dined on 8/15/2014
Our server was a pretty young man
and he was not up to the task. He was trying and I'm sure if he continues to work at it he'll get better but for now he's struggling to provide good service."
Dined on 8/11/2014
We went horse back riding at
madonna followed by an amazing dinner at the steak house. The service was very nice and quick, simply on point. The food was perfect, great steaks! And we also ordered the chocolate cake.. YUM! So good and for such a special day for us it really was the best choice. The only issue I could possibly say is all the items in the gift shop were outrageous, which is basically to be expected. I definitely suggest anyone to come check it out. ♡"
Dined on 8/11/2014
The food was amazing. From the
moment we sat down our taste-buds were in heaven. The Pink decorations made my wife happy. They provided a sweet touch at the end to help us celebrate our anniversary. Thank you"
Dined on 8/9/2014
We are from another state and
stopped for dinner because in was convenient. What a great surprise!!! The food and service were excellent. The extra treat was the live band playing old standards. This is something rarely found in any restaurant. Also, the décor is fabulous"
Dined on 8/9/2014
We went here for dinner for a
special occasion of out of town guests. What we didn't expect was the noise level to be so high - mainly because there is a live band 100 feet from the tables during dining hours, and we also didn't expect it to take an HOUR AND 45 MINUTES to get our food once we ordered (which was about 15 min after we were seated). Since we had a 3 yr old with us, this was not ideal on both counts. The wait was absurd. I also had ordered a med rare steak and it came out like it was tartar (super rare). Once cooked a few more minutes, it was perfection as was the free dessert we received for the lengthy wait. So if you go here, expect noise, order your meat knowing it's on the rare side, and do NOT go in already hungry!"
Dined on 8/8/2014
Unique and iconic hotel, great
location and interior. As for the food itself, all 4 of us experienced overlooked main courses (so the food was dry and hard) and also very bland. More like the food you'd get in a cheap low-end chain. Disappointing!"
Dined on 8/6/2014
Don't come for the food which is
nothing special and overpriced -come for the venue which is amazingly over the top and great fun Have a few cocktails take a few photos and enjoy the kitsch"
Dined on 8/4/2014
Went to Madonna for our
anniversary. So glad we made reservations 3 days before. They were booked up even for a monday and were turning away grouos5. They had great food and the service was outstanding."
Dined on 8/4/2014
Fun place to check out and take
the kids. Reasonably priced with excellent service."
Dined on 8/2/2014
Madonna Inn is an unusual place to
say the least, and worth a visit. But while the steakhouse has the ambiance of 1930's Vegas crossed with a cathouse (and is quite interesting and over the top), the quality of the beef did not justify the high prices. My ribeye, which I requested to be medium rare, came medium, and covered in an unidentifiable set of grilling spices/sauce, which made it taste just bland and vaguely meatlike. My GF's filet was fairly small, highly priced (like $42), and somewhat tough (certainly tougher than a filet ought to be). Beef was definitely not Prime and didn't even seem Choice. Salad OK, veggies, OK. Service quite nice. Wines were good. Basically a moderately interesting tourist trap."
Dined on 7/30/2014
This is like going to Disney Land.
If that's your kind of thing, or if you like the idea of sitting under giant flowers, cupids poised over your heads, and everything in pink, then by all means try this restaurant. The steak and potatoes were good steakhouse fare. The "Eyetalian" dressing was coffeeshop style. Food definitely does not reflect the pricing. Be prepared to spend a lot of dough if this sounds like your kind of fun."
Dined on 7/27/2014
The Madonna Inn isn't for
everyone, if you like eccentricity and pink, you'll adore it here. I do. As for the steakhouse, everything we had tasted great. Just don't expect a lot of thought to go into presentation, I think the chefs are probably very straight forward people. We ordered the sausage platter, which tasted great, but was literally just a bunch of cut up sausage dumped on a white plate. I raised an eyebrow, but that's as far as it went. All the other food was delicious, as well, just not very pretty. But who cares? The dining room is a spectacle in itself, who needs fancy plating?"
Dined on 7/23/2014
Anyone traveling in the central
coast of California should take the opportunity to dine here. It is truly a landmark . The atmosphere is fun and unique, back to the past. The steaks were excellent and in our opinion give Ruth Chris a run for their money."
Dined on 7/23/2014
Food was absolutely amazing, my
husband said it was the best filet mignon he has ever had!"
Dined on 7/20/2014
We took our parents for a 45th
anniversary and both the grandchildren and the grandparents where so impressed with the ambiance, then the orchestra started playing and the kids took the grandparents out to dance, it was so cute. The food was excellent and the service was impeccable. It was a wonderful experience: )"
Dined on 7/19/2014
I went to the Madonna Inn's Gold
Rush Steakhouse as part of an anniversary experience staying at the hotel. I have to say, both the hotel and restaurant exceeded our wildest expectations! Seating was lightening fast, we had a lovely table, our waitress was very friendly and attentive, and the food was delicious. The abalone appetizer was a definite standout, and my French Filet and husband's sirloin were both delicious and perfectly prepared. I like my steak rare and I can't tell you how often a restaurant will take that to mean medium rare. This was PERFECT! To top it off, the lovely piece of German Chocolate cake they gave us complementary was just perfection! Thank you for making this a special day for the two of us!"
Dined on 7/17/2014
This is the most remarkable
restaurant (and hotel) I have been visiting. As a European it is almost too much, but You have to experience it once in a time. The interior is fabulous, the steak was perfect and the service on top. Since we were celebrating this was The Place for celebrating. Don´t forget to visit the bar also for nice drinks (and good talk with bartender)."
Dined on 7/16/2014
The restaurant had a fantastic
ambiance and the devotee was over the top, but everything here was! Ashley, our server was wonderful. Friendly, knowledgable and fast. We ordered the filet mignon! It was delicious!!! They had cakes and less, but w opted for icecream. We had a wonderful time!!"
Dined on 7/16/2014
We were married in 1960, so it's
probably appropriate to celebrate our wedding anniversary in an atmosphere that reminds us of the sixties. The only thing missing is the Rat Pack! The service is attentive, and they always get the recognition of a special event right. Prices are high, but worth it. Portions are large and excellent."
Dined on 7/16/2014
Very pleasant but to expensive to
attend on a regular basis"
Dined on 7/12/2014
The Filet Mignon was the best
steak I've had in many years. Cooked to perfection. The atmosphere and decor of the restaurant is something out of a dream. Will definitely come back next time I'm in California!"
Dined on 7/10/2014
The Gold Rush Steakhouse is
phenomenal for the quality of their food and the high level of service. I've lived in this area for 35 years and still consider it "the place" to go for a special occasion meal. While the steaks are my favorite, this restaurant doesn't have the old west appeal that other local steakhouses have but it is so unique and special unto itself that this doesn't matter. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone."
Dined on 7/5/2014
This steakhouse is always a
pleaser. We've been several times within my 30+ year lifetime. This time we came for my mom's (semi-surprise) birthday. We were a large party (10 ppl) and we had 4 kids, so I presume this is why they put us in the back. The ambiance was still lovely and the food was delicious. The service was bad because our waiter was busy with another large(r) party. Took him 2 reminders and 30 minutes to take our order -- and this came without an apology. The rest of the evening was spotty with un-stellar service and a few bizarre though laughable issues. Thankfully the manager interceded and made things right with his kind attention. A major mishap with the bill at the end was catastrophic. Maybe we'll try again next year."
Dined on 7/4/2014
Server, Sharon terrific but was
disappointed that the manager, Michael, would NOT allow me to order the Prime Rib portion from the child's menu, as I was able to do in three "upscale" restaurants the previous evenings in both Monterey and Carmel, Ca! Therefore I split a meal with my husband and everyone lost, the restaurants would have had the extra meal charge and I had my desired portion and choice. Therefore will not return in near future!"
Dined on 7/2/2014
Food was good but not as good as
it was in 2011 and it cost a lot more."
Dined on 6/30/2014
I don't eat steak very often, so I
try for the best when I do. The filet mignon at The Madonna Inn was the best I've ever eaten! Tender, tasty and wondrous! And the service was excellent. The waiter was friendly, helpful and courteous, and fun! The Madonna Inn is a hoot, the ambiance over the top and you must accept it for what it for that. We did!"
Dined on 6/29/2014
The service was very good. and so
was the food. However, we ordered our steaks to be medium and they were well done, (no pink inside). I was with my young daughter who was so thrilled at the time and I didn't want to ruin her impression of things so I didn't say anything about it. We also ordered the Abalone appetizer which was partially chewy. I was expecting something pounded out and completely tender. The portion was very small too."
Dined on 6/27/2014
I used to frequent the Madonna Inn
in the mid-late 60's. I was pleased to see that there have been few changes. Women still frequent the men's restroom and the food, if anything, is better that it used to be. The filet was wonderful. I missed Phyllis Madonna singing "I left my heart in San Francisco" but I expect she, as all of us, is getting a bit older. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants a great meal with surroundings that can hardly be described."
Dined on 6/25/2014
This place is awesome! Great food
and great service! Fabulous desserts too! I will be back!"

Great friendly and enthusiastic
service. Tasty meal from drinks, appetizers, and main."
Dined on 6/22/2014
Always a fantastic experience!!
Great food and special memories!"
Dined on 6/18/2014
Our first time eating here, it was
a treat from beginning to end. Food was perfectly prepared. My wife had prime rib (med-rare) and I had the lamb chops (medium) both were cooked as we had requested. Sides of baked potato and veggies (al-dente) were perfect additions. Service was excellent and slow paced so that we could enjoy each course. Salad was fresh and nicely dressed. Wine choices by the glass (quartino) were plentiful with many choices. Atmosphere was funky and whimsical (translate: gaudy) and fun, with dinner music provided after 7:00. A bit expensive but worth it. Wait staff was attentive along with a visit from the matre'd."
Dined on 6/18/2014
We went for our sons graduation
from Cal Poly. Waitress was super nice and gave us right amount of time to have our drinks. My New York steak was delicious and very flavorful. Best at our table, but prime rib was also good as well as filet minion. For my son, they brought him a piece of their cake on the house and brought out balloon that said congratulations!!! Also there was a live band playing which gave us a fun atmosphere. Price was reasonable for what you received. Overall was very happy with food and dining experience."
Dined on 6/14/2014
A must see if you are in the area.
Over the top décor, fun old school dancing. And you must take a look at the men's bathroom...."
Dined on 6/14/2014
This place was very interesting.
First of all the food was good. Everything was prepared as we had asked for it. The wait staff was attentive and knowledgeable. The décor has to be see to be believed. It's over the top and I'm guessing that is exactly what they were going for. It was a fun place and I would recommend it at least once. There was a band the night we were there so it was a little noisy. Oh you need to check out the men's room."
Dined on 6/11/2014
Loved the embiance! We were
joining Modonna for our anniversary dinner. I felt amazing bringing her through the large wood carved doors. Signing in to our reservation had us wait and additional 10-15 min which was perfectly fine got to enjoy some great things like take pictures next to the fire place and urinate into a waterfall. We sat buy a lovely matre d, given water and pickled peppers warm cheese and green onion? Our server may have been new but did not meet our expectations that the prosona of the elegant Madonna had presented. Similar to a nice Denny's server. Don't get me wrong nice but not quite Madonna material. Steak was cooked perfectly bit chewey for a filet mignon, sent with a side of poorly sautéed mushrooms. Dessert was good"
Dined on 6/11/2014
The Madonna Inn is one of a kind.
While the menu is classic steakhouse, the decor verges on psychedelic with multicolored water goblets, oodles of pink and gold upholstery and seasonal decorations that included a ceiling decked with blossoms and butterflies as big as our table. The preparation of our steaks were spot on and the quality of the meat and produce were exemplary. There are some rough edges to the experience, but it is an experience!"

Apparently the condition of wanting to lick Megan Fox has spread ... to Megan Fox.
tha's hot Megan please don't do that to us....
Damn she's hot.
Brian Austin Green is a dumbass to let this get away.
I liked her in How to win friends and alienate people. I wish she continues to take good roles. As soon as fame gets to a celebritys head they take stupid roles. Meagan.. Don't let the money or fame get to you.. Remember your childhood friends. Remember Jesus ( When you win your first Academy Award thank Jesus Christ) Do some charity work for poor and or sick people, If you follow the Angelina Jolie & Madonna fascination of adopting African kids, break from the norm and adopt black kids right here in America.. And give your kids African names. And don't date white men who are not cool with you adopting black kids.. Stop with the tatoos.. You have too many.. You sholdn't have more than two tatoos. None should be bigger than a quarter. Oh yeah..Eat some more food and get some implants like Kim Kardashian.. You will truly be the hottest woman in the world if you do that... GO to Brazil.. They got good doctors down there..
What is the big deal about her. She's nothing special and can't act.
Another innocent photo perverted by TMZ.
jeeez, what's up with the lame tattoo on her forearm???
I have something she could put that tongue to use on.Would gladly let her.
Its amazing how everyone fantasizes about a raging alcoholic among other things im sure. Is she hot? Yes shes sexy. But im sure he conversations lack any real merrit. And i know your gonna say who needs to talk to her. Well your right. All you minute men in the world feel free to fantasize. To the rest of the men out there shes a moron who can afford plastic surgery. She would be a one night stand and thats it.
No's 4&6. It must be hell living in your worlds. When you have to grope to find something negative to say about Megan Fox it says NOTHING about her, but EVERYTING about you two.
hot off the press!!!! she just covering up a new tattoo with a blow tox injection in her tongue!!!!
Obviously tha dumbass who said she gets plastic surgery didn't see tha high school pics of Fox posted tha other day. She's sexy as hell. As for intelligence? It's clear none of us know, b/c we dnt talk to her! lol. I could care less rite about now....tha things I'd do to her....haha
Lindsey an Sammy boy want a 3-way!
She does have implants and a nose job, she's just as pretty as anyone her age in Hollywood. But she tries too hard to impress... little boys. Her tongue looks like it would cut ya, maybe she's trying to pick her nose. That would be cool!!
my dog licks itself too when the ink cartridge gets dry! ha ha ha !!

Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) -- For five years, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius has been a lightning rod for critics of President Barack Obama's health care law.
But with sign-ups exceeding expectations and a new face soon to be in charge at HHS, the White House is eager to see if the poisonous atmosphere might give way to more pragmatic efforts aimed at fixing problems with the nation's newest social program.
Obama will announce Sebelius' resignation Friday. He will also nominate his budget director, Sylvia Mathews Burwell, as her replacement.
The moves come just over a week after sign-ups closed for the first year of insurance coverage under the so-called Obamacare law.

There are so many moments of our life which bring us stress and exhaustion. the daily routine can become stressful, the noisy and crowded traffic can make you feel angry and tired or even raising your kids can exhaust you much that sometimes you wish a vacation to recharge your batteries. I must confess that the last part of this list which refers to kids is a real truth. As I am a fresh mummy and I have been staying for almost a year and two months at home I have realized that I am more and more exhausted. The routine of the daily program, my dynamic daughter and the fact that I do many things all by myself almost kill me. I have never thought that all these things can become so exhausting, but I still manage!
If I had some money I would become a client for this condominium penthouse which is for sale, located in Grace Bay and I would have a great place where I could relax.

VMware hangs with the cool kids in the Containers gang
Re: Wheel re-invention
"where does this article talk about windows?"
Did you actually read the article? Its about VMWare of whom 99% of their clients are Windows users. Probably the only reason you mentioned Docker is for advertising so back to Marketing school for you troll.
Re: Wheel re-invention
"Container = Application running in isolated space = have these people not come across a mainframe??"
Never mind mainframe - its happened in Unix for years too.
Basically with anything related to virtualisation, if it hasn't happened to Windows, it hasn't happened. How people can talk about Windows being a serious server OS even now, never mind back in the days of NT and blue screens is beyond me , but there you go, you can't educate point and click monkeys.
Oracle Database 12c's data redaction security smashed live on stage
Re: I want to go back
"Why did Sun have to get bought by Oracle?"
Because even when the writing was on the wall in 10 foot high flashing neon lights , McNealy and pals still thought people would pay 5 digit prices for their unix workstations and low end servers when x86 + linux/windows had already eaten their lunch and was on to desert. They just about managed to keep making money at the high end but not enough not to need rescuing
Its a shame because Sun desktop workstations were fantastic pieces of kit back in the day and if Sun had charged sensible prices they could have easily competed with Macs & PCs for graphics intensive apps. But pay 10K for the same sort of performance you could get for 3K with x86 or PowerPC Mac? No one is that stupid.
Re: RE: Microsoft paying
"Ever tried reading any of their install scripts?"
Never mind reading them - even trying to use them can be an utter pain if the system doesn't have EXACTLY what the script is expecting in EXACTLY the right place. I'm pretty sure they give the install script writing job to the interns because I simply don't believe they've been written by professionals since they are so utterly appalling.

YES, iPhones ARE getting slower with each new release of iOS
Re: Old OS == Faster on newer hardware
Getting an OS to boot isn't the same as having it run all the hardware. I'd lay money on pretty much nothing on that P4 board working under 3.11 aside from VGA graphics , keyboard and mouse.

Re: It's all very wonderful
"Sure, we get a bit squeezed and the food is dodgy. But people have never been able to travel so far, so fast, for so little."
Or to look at it another way - people have never been able to cause so much pollution just for a 1 way trip.
No doubt I'll be modded down for making that comment but just look up into the sky on a sunny day in most places in europe and look at all the shit from the aircraft turning the blue into a hazy white. And yes I know thats ice crystals but there's an equal amount of CO2 and other pollutants emitted along with the water vapour that you can't see.
Re: It's all very wonderful
"Flying was once a pleasure but now, and especially with the US Paranoia and fear that everyone of going to destroy their ****** country it is no fun anymore."
Did someone force you to take a job that requires you to make 20+ flights a year? I sure as hell wouldn't take it. As far as I'm concerned my job is simply a necessary evil to earn money to live my life and any job that eats into my own time on a regular basis isn't worth having. If you did 20 long hauls that a minimum of 40 days a year on business trips, probably closer to 60. Fsck that. You must be mad.
LibreSSL crypto library leaps from OpenBSD to Linux, OS X, more
Re: "C++ has its place , but this sort of low level almost to-the-metal code is not it."
"From your heartfelt complaints, I infer that you were once exposed to some complete idiots who took the C++ language spec as a challenge,"
Pretty much in every company I've worked in, usually by people who've read a design patterns book and seem to think they need to apply as many patterns as possible and abstract as much as possible with whatever problem they're given regardless of whether it warrents it or not. Usually it turns out these sorts are nothing more than lego brick coders who have no real feel for coding but they can bluff their way along by virtually cutting and pasting methodologies into their code.
"C++ was largely developed by experienced C coders "
Don't get me wrong - I like C++ , its a far better OO version of C than that Objective-C abortion Apple seems to love. I just don't happen to like the way it tends to be used. The problem is that with C if you don't know what you're doing you won't get very far - your program will more than likely crash pretty fast and often. But with C++ if its kept at a high abstract level with liberal use of the STL and other libraries lot a lot of people can just about manage to get something working.
"The KISS principle should be ingrained into people before they get a keyboard."
Tell that to the C++ standards commitee.
Re: Corporations (like Google) need to step up.
"well I don't see him suggesting that, do you?"
Seemed like the implication was there. If not then doesn't matter, the point stands on its own.
"Don't let that stop your rant though... very enjoyable ;)"
I'm curious - can you just explain why people like yourself class any opinion you disagree with as a "rant" or denigrate it in some other way? Its a very adolescent thing to do.
Re: Corporations (like Google) need to step up.
"As a mostly C++ 11 coder its also gotten me interested in best practices in old school C (yes yes I know C++ is almost a superset of C but boy are they two different worlds even in mindset) so perhaps can help out eventually as well."
I do hope you're not suggesting that if rewritten in C++ it would somehow be more readable because as someone who also is a professional C++ coder I can assure you it would not be. For something as low level as SSL you need entirely *explicit* code, not the implicit untraceable to the naked eye mess most C++ programs end up as with cascades of constructors and destructors constantly firing off from stack objects coming in and going out of scope and no one being 100% sure exactly what is going on especially if you chuck in the STL with all its behind the scenes memory allocation games. And what would you do with 2011 here? Throw in some lambda functions or auto types or maybe default template values just to confuse the hell out of anyone tracing the code in a normal editor?
C++ has its place , but this sort of low level almost to-the-metal code is not it.
F1? No, it's Formula E as electric racing cars hit the track
"Motor racing is a NON CONTACT SPORT."
Says who? You?
"It much too fecking dangerous for it to be anything else"
Oh well, I guess banger racing should be banned immediately then!
"that heap of crap that is BTCC"
You mean that heap of crap that actually has proper racing rather than cars following each other round in a tedious procession with passing only done in the first 10 seconds from the start and during pit stops? If I want to watch a train I'll go to a station.
"OK in FFord"
Formula Ford? What a fucking joke. Go karts with a flash paint job.
"was one of the most exciting races I have ever seen"
Well I didn't see it , but whenever I've seen "exciting" clips from F1 its usually the sort of thing that happens all the time elsewhere, not once in 2 hours.
"It is also idiotic to talk about "bump and grind" at 200 mph."
Nascar manage it. But then they're closed wheel.
"F1 cars have never routinely bumped each other because it's extremely dangerous in an open wheel car."
Err, thats kind of what I said. And thats what makes open wheel racing so tedious IMO.
"F1 has always been and remains the pinnacle of motorsport. "
*snort* Yeah , right. Maybe 30 years ago. Now its just profligate self obsessed bling circus that just happens to involve cars. The racing is dull, the cars are dull and the drivers are dull and some of the races - eg monaco - are just a pointless farce. They're not a race, they're an event for the glitterati to be seen at.
Re: +1 for Touring Cars
Yup. Touring car is proper track car racing. Unfortunately it doesn't have the bling bling and primadonas of F1 so the TV companies arn't interested. Still, F1 is slowly disappearing up its own arse with its dull racing, constant absurd rule changes and personality free drivers and people are voting with their remote controls. Silverstone was on at the same time as the wimbledon mens final and the Tour de France yesterday and I'll lay good money on its viewing figures being a distant 3rd out of the 3 of them.
"I enjoyed the British Grand Prix yesterday"
You're one of the few then. I gave up on F1 years ago, just a tedious procession round and round in a circle with hardly any passing due to most of the tracks not being designed for open wheel racing where even the slightest touch means you're off. Compare that to touring cars where bump and grind is the order of the day. F1 is an utter snoozefest. And now you don't even get a decent sound from the cars with the new hybrid engines - they sound like bad tempered lawn mowers.

Re: You think aircraft carriers are expensive...
" I remember at one point the US was refusing to hand over the source code....."
Wouldn't surprise me. We're the USAs Bestest Friend Ever when they need something from us (like helping them justify pointless invasions), but when we need something from them and they don't get much from it, its a different bloody story.
"We have a great history of building amazing aircraft here in the UK & Europe, I can't see why we didn't build out own VSTOL fighter,"
2 main problems:
A) We don't have the money and since no other european country has ever seemed that interested in VTOL we'd probably have to cough up for everything which wouldn't go down well with the usual "wot abaht 'ospitals-n-skools!" style of moron voter all politicians seem in thrall to these days.
B) The current crop of politicians don't seem that interested in supporting british industry anyway and when challenged just fall back on the EU fair competition rules. Which everyone else in the EU ignores anyway except us.
"at the very least we should never have sold off our Harriers!"
A textbook definition of extreme short term thinking. Even if we didn't have the money to run them they could have been mothballed with minimum maintenance until we did. But no, Osborne had to sell them off for a pittance. The man should be ashamed of himself.
NASA's Curiosity rover brought Earth BUG to Mars
Re: All software has flaws
"On the other hand, there is a pretty cool article on formal verification "
If formal verification were a panacea it would be a lot more common. All it does however is move the bugs from the software to the formal specification (which is effectively a sort of program in itself) and you end up having to debug the latter instead, and which scales in complexity with the complexity of the system you're trying to prove. And if you have a bug in the spec that goes unnoticed then it makes the formal proof worse than useless because people assume that , well , the software has been formally proven , it can't fail! Hmmm...

I would lay a reasonable amount of money that MS will still be caring about 7 long after 8 has been consigned to the "Seemed like a good idea at the time" dustbin of history given the number of corporate customers who are using 7. I suspect 7 will be the new corporate XP and will still be found around offices in 10 years time.

There's probably half a dozen Phd dissertations worth of maths inside the code so to me it doesn't seem too unreasonable especially given the quite limited market for it - ie its not really a general consumer product.
LONGER flights burning MORE fuel can CUT planes' climate impact
Re: ...and another thing!
"I've lost count of the number of times a beautiful blue summer sky has been turned into dark grey mass of rain clouds by endless changes in the weather."
Right, because man has as much control over air transport as he does over the weather.
Re: Interesting, but of little consequence
" Its temperature isn't set by the fraction of a trace gas changing by a few parts per million, but by the heat stored in all that water."
Oh for gods sake, look up the word equilibrium then get back to us.
Re: Interesting, but of little consequence
" it's CO2 that controls the greenhouse effect with water vapor acting as an amplifier."
I think you're wasting your time. It seems they can't grasp the simple concepts of positive & negative feedback.
Re: Cut the trees
"Me thinks we should rethink our belief that a warmer climate is a bad thing."
Tell that to the people in Australia who've had a marked increase in bushfires due to dry conditions or the people in central india having to cope with temps getting near 50C. Its easy to say a few degrees warming doesn't matter if you live in a comfy temperate climate where an extra degree or 2 just means you can get the BBQ out a bit earlier.
"So, no flights allowed over the UK, then..."
If only. I've lost count of the number of times a beautiful blue summer sky has been turned into a hazy white mess by endless aircraft. I'm not against flying per se , but honestly , the number of aircraft flying over SE england is just getting out of hand. Its about time some limits were set and if that means the Waynes & Waynettas have to give Ibiza a miss for one year then tough.
Re: Interesting, but of little consequence
"2) The greenhouse effect of CO2 pails into complete insignificance when compared to water vapour."
And the few volts going through the switching part of a lathe motor relay pales into insignificance compared to the 415 volts going through the main part so clearly it has no effect on what the relay does.
Titan sprouts 'Magic Island', say astroboffins
Or Titan is slowly drying up
Why? A huge bloated atmosphere and the liquid on the ground is confined to a few relatively small areas. Now if I was a betting man I'd lay a few quid on the fact that Titan is undergoing a very slow runaway greenhouse style effect and that in a few thousand/million years (take your pick), Titan will be completely dry of liquid hydrocarbons with them all having evaporated into its atmosphere swelling it even more. Whereas in the past - looking at the landscape - its fairly obvious there was oceans worth of liquid on the surface , far more than today.

Re: Agile approach?
Yeah , but only £15m. In the Wasting Public Money awards they wouldn't even be up for a nomination. Now the BBC or the NHS on the other hand...
Agile is just another meaningless buzzword
It doesn't matter what methodology you use - and most are just a variation on common sense - if you don't set deadlines and milestones then the project is sunk. Simple solution to this type of mess - go to suppliers and say "We want this , this and this by this time and you'll get your money when its done. If you over run or under deliver we'll subtract X for each infraction. Now give us your quote.". Sorted. The bullshitters will head for the hills and you'll be left with the companies that can actually deliver.

Microsoft 'Catapults' geriatric Moore's Law from CERTAIN DEATH
Re: The next step will come from ...
Right, because the X server is the obvious bottleneck on a massively parallel backend system. Not.
As for bloatware , yes you have a point there. First of all perhaps its time to dump a lot of inefficient scripting languages and VMs whether running Java style languages (unless the JIT execution can really be proven to be faster than precompiled binaries for the task) or entire OSes, and go back to to-the-metal style coding at using C/C++ and research even more improvements to compilers.
Following that strip down the OS itself - far to many server OSes run with code they don't need that while it doesn't do anything still occasionally is pointlessly spun up and queried (eg drivers) or just has to be passed through (eg firewalls). This is the case for Windows and Linux.
Then reduce the number of daisy chained API libraries and rewrite important code in a single library with minimal code jumping and hence paging required.
Once all that is done then we can start worrying about hardware.
How practical is an electric car in London?
Re: "allowing electric cars to drive in bus lanes"
"Ridiculous. A car with one person in it in a big city is probably wasting road space
(unless you have to carry tools and parts to do your job, and then you'd probably need a van anyway)."
Depends where in a big city and which city. Transport in city centres is usually good - in the suburbs, not so much. If I need to go visit a friend or relative I'm not waiting 15 mins for a bus to show up then have to change halfway , wait another 15 mins then sit there as the bus stops every 300m to pick up passengers and end up taking 2 hours to do a journey that I could do by car in 30 mins. And thats assuming I don't need to carry anything large or heavy. To coin a phase - fuck that.
Psst. We've got 400Gb/s Ethernet working - but don't tell anyone
Re: I want a high speed version of 10base2
"well - there are 2 additional things Ethernet gives you vs a serial link:"
Sure, but that can be done at the router end - you don't need it at the client. The client shouldn't need to bother with MAC addresses et al, just know its IP address. I don't see any technical reason why client PCs couldn't simply be connected to the bridge/router via a high speed serial link perhaps along the lines of USB or SATA or perhaps something entirely new. But without the overhead of ethernet.
Re: I want a high speed version of 10base2
"The whole CSMA/CD system that 10base2 uses starts to break down quite badly at very low traffic speeds"
Yeah I know , but a man can dream can't he? :o) Though I honestly don't see the point of 10BaseT - its essentially just a serial link with the overheads of a network protocol (hardware and software). Why not just use a proper serial link and be done with it.
I want a high speed version of 10base2
So we only have few wires going into the bridge/router , not an entire bloody telephone exchange worth of them just for one frigging office floor, never mind the entire building.

Re: And who will not be happy

I suggest before you start spouting moronic off the shelf student rhetoric you at least get a clue first:

Re: And who will not be happy
"'I'd like to take each and every member of the 'environmentalist' lobby, strip them naked, and dump them "
Don't tar all enviromentalists with the greenpeace brush. Greenpeace jumped the shark years ago and now they're just a left wing anti-everything political movement. But they're are organisations like Friends of the Earth who do have a reasonable point of view and don't want to ban anything invented after 1800.
'CAPTAIN CYBORG': The wild-eyed prof behind 'machines have become human' claims
Re: So much to do, so little time...
"Yes we can programme a machine to play chess"
Chess programs are a good example of how the definition of AI changes over the years. Back in the 70s & 80s they were seen as the cutting edge of AI , now they're just seen as the dumb brute forcers that they are (albeit with some finessing code added for end games). I suspect the same will go for computer vision and speech recognition in the future even though today it still has the Wow factor. For some people anyway.

If you actually had a clue about designing mechanical systems I might take some notice of your sad little hurt pride rant. However clearly you don't and obviously don't know anything outside of software (and as for implying working project management gives you more of a heads up - oh please) so don't even pretend to be able to make a valid statement on the difference.
Testing and releasing system software is a walk in the park compared to releasing safety critical new hardware. This is a fact and it is NOT up for debate. Now go back to your gant charts and powerpoint presentations where clearly you belong.
>You're either not a programmer, have never worked at Systems level programming or you have
>management that never do regression testing or impose timescales.
LOL! My friend - I've done unix systems programming for over 20 years - I probably read Stevens when you were still in short trousers. I've also done mechanics. Believe me - designing a fix for a vehicle when there are structural , safety, efficiency and space considerations to take into account, not to mention the warranty to consider if you feck it up and the owners want a replacement - is a lot harder than updating and testing some software which has to worry about none of the above.
"I think it is disgusting, Toyota improved the safety features in the new Verso and they won't build them into my 2010 model for free!"
Right, because backporting lines of code in an IDE and recompiling is really on the same level of difficulty as designing and then physically adding new hardware to millions of vehicles isn't it.
Ukrainian teen created in lab passes Turing Test – famous nutty prof
Re: AI is harder than Turing expected
"Certainly it's clear that passing the test turned out to be a lot harder than Turing expected"
AI turned out to be a lot harder than ANYONE expected. Even the supposedly (from a 1950s point of view) "trivial" AI problems of computer vision and voice recognition are only now really coming to fruition. One of the problems of course - other than hardware - is that the brain simply does not work on boolean logic except perhaps at the very highest level some of the time. Eg: "If its sunny I'll go for a bike ride else I'll watch a DVD". But the computer pioneers assumed it worked like this all the way down. You can't blame them , its an obvious inference , it just happens to be wrong.

Re: "Perhaps we will never know"
If my limited experience of releasing free software is anything to do by, they probably got fed up with the endless whiners and complainers. Its amazing the number of people who seem to think they're doing you a favour by using your program and think you owe them 24/7 attention for every tiny issue, rather than you having done THEM a favour by writing and releasing it for free in the first place. I can't be bothered with that school playground attitude any more - if they want help now they can pay me or they can just feck off.

text:
I work in cycles and series and projects, often several concurrently, compulsively, relentlessly, trying to understand. What is left, my work, is incidental to the process, organic in nature, a compendium of moments in a journey.
It is the passing that I try to cultivate, the happening of a painting, a sensitivity to the magic of it's appearance, the music that comes through, synesthesia. Painting, art, is a pantograph; as the hand moves, the mark is made. At root, it is a mechanism for turning moments into meaning. I feel that in my work, I try to recognize when a picture is flawed in the most meaningful ways, and then stop. Make the next picture. In that way a history can be devised; a mythology of the artist as an experiment.
But there are always negotiations, and so much labor, and guessing, and questioning of intentionsthe circles the mind draws on itself. The pictures are always rooted in life, in my memories and experiences, but I try to create them so that, for my audience, different facets of reality can be brought to communicate in the same visual space. The pictures are then a representation, but also an invention; an expressive collection of movements, but also a formal abstract system, both a statement about my vision, and a stage for the viewer's imagination.
I think of my pictures primarily as American.
Californian, maybe.
They are a form of dance, I think.

Daily Speed Read: News You Should Know May 5, 2014
By Lisa Keen
Originally printed 5/5/2014 (Issue 2217 - Between The Lines News)
LESBIAN TO WASHINGTON SUPREME COURT: Washington State's Democratic Governor Jay Inslee appointed openly lesbian Judge Mary Yu to the state supreme court May 1. In making the announcement, Inslee noted that Yu, 56, a native of Chicago, becomes the first openly gay, the first Asian-American, and the first Latina on the state supreme court. She will be sworn in next month and must run for election this fall in order to serve out the two years remaining in the six-year term of the retiring justice she is replacing. Yu has been reelected four times for her current seat on the King County Superior Court.
GAY BISHOP ANNOUNCES DIVORCE: The Episcopal Church's first openly gay bishop, Gene Robinson, announced in an email to his diocese and a column in the DailyBeast.com Sunday that he and his husband, whose civil union automatically became marriage under New Hampshire law in 2010, are divorcing. Robinson offered no details for why the couple is splitting after 25 years together, except to say "gay and lesbian couples are subject to the same complications and hardships that afflict marriages between heterosexual couples." The Episcopal denomination's General Convention affirmed Robinson's election as bishop in 2003.
INDIANA DECISION COMING 'SOON': A federal judge in Indiana heard oral arguments for two hours May 2 in Baskin v. Bogan, a case brought by Lambda Legal on behalf of three lesbian couples in Evansville. U.S. District Court Chief Judge Richard Young (a Clinton appointee) said he would rule soon on a motion for summary judgment in the case, reports the Indianapolis Star, but both sides intend to appeal if they lose at this level. Such an appeal will be the first marriage ban lawsuit to reach the Seventh Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals, which covers Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin. The Baskin case is one of five currently pending in federal court in Indiana.
ON WISCONSIN, ON WISCONSIN: U.S. District Judge Barbara Crabb (a Carter appointee) last week denied Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker's request to dismiss an ACLU-led lawsuit challenging the state's ban on marriage licenses. The lawsuit, Wolf v. Walker, also challenges the state's ban on civil unions and its prohibition against same-sex couples obtaining marriage licenses from other states.
COMMENT ON HOUSING SEARCH: The Federal Register today announces the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development is extending by another 30 days its public comment period on housing discrimination against LGBT people. The notice, originally published in January, says HUD is preparing to do focus group studies and is "interested in the manner in which people identify themselves as lesbian, gay, or transgender when searching for rental housing."
JAPAN'S FIRST LADY JOINS PRIDE EVENT: First Lady Akie Abe, wife of conservative Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, participated in the annual Tokyo Rainbow Pride parade April 27, according to Japan Daily Press. At a speech before the UNAIDS-Lancet Commission in London last February, the First Lady said, "I have made up my mind that throughout the rest of my life, I should work as a self- appointed, public amplifier, amplifying the voice of the voiceless, and the cause that in our life time we must work to end AIDS."
RUSSIAN LGBT MARCH ALLOWED: Russian authorities took no action May 1 to stop a contingent of 300 people marching behind a rainbow banner that said "Love is Stronger than Hate." A report in GayStarNews.com said the march took place in St. Petersburg during a May Day parade in which many groups participated. Laws passed by Russia last year prohibit any public expression of support for LGBT people and authorities stopped similar demonstrations previously.

Punching In: One Man's Undercover Adventures on the Front Lines of America's Best-Known Companies (Paperback)
Usually Ships in 1-5 days
During a two-year urban adventure through the world of commerce, journalist Alex Frankel proudly wore the brown uniform of the UPS driver, folded endless stacks of T-shirts at Gap, brewed espressos for the hordes at Starbucks, interviewed (but failed to get hired) at Whole Foods, enrolled in management training at Enterprise Rent-A-Car, and sold iPods at the Apple Store.
In this lively and entertaining narrative, Frankel takes readers on a personal journey into the land of front-line employees to discover why some workers are so eager to drink the corporate Kool-Aid and which companies know how to serve it up best.
About the Author
Alex FrankeL is a writer based in San Francisco. He has written about business culture and adventure for Wired, Fast Company, The New York Times Magazine, and Outside, and he is the author of Wordcraft: The Art of Turning Little Words into Big Business.

"I see Alex Frankel as the Jane Goodall of the modern Workplace jungle."
-Po Bronson, author of What Should I Do With My Life?
"Like an intrepid anthropologist, Frankel immerses himself in self-contained commercial cultures and resurfaces to write with empathy and insight."
-Dan Gross, Newsweek columnist and author of Pop! Why Bubbles Are Great for the Economy
"Insightful, personal, and funny. Frankel does the impossible—he gives corporate culture a soul."
-Rodney Rothman, author of Early Bird
"Savor the reporting on offer..."
-Wall Street Journal
"A book that takes readers behind the scenes at some of the country's best-known companies..."
-Washington Post

Score from 16 reviews Wonderful 9/10
Frederic and his staff really made our stay special. The help and advice he gave us on our first visit to Marrakech was brilliant.
The decor was lovely and Frederick was very welcoming and friendly! Also the cats are lovely.
The first night our air-con was broken and so it was rather uncomfortable but they fixed it the next morning and it was most comfortable.
Frederick was fantastic and always available to provide help and suggestions. I only wish I had been able to chat with him more, but I unfortunately do not speak French! Even so, we were able to get by easily. The Riad was clean and well maintained. The wifi worked well, which is always a plus. Breakfast was simple breads, jams, coffee/tea and juice and eggs were available upon request. I also stayed for dinner one evening which was great - highly recommend.
I can't think of one thing I didn't like - all was great.
This was a stunningly artistic, authentically restored Riad, reminiscent of Ancient Greek, Moroccan life, enhanced by the creative capacity of Patrick, who has added a wow factor at every level, the design, decor, photographs and paintings, inner courtyard with pool, arched verandas, many places to relax, our room was enormous with 4 poster bed, all add to the welcome impressions. The hospitality, friendliness in a convivial, homely environment, where conversation was natural and informative assisted us in our first experience of Marrakesh. Patrick and Frederick were able to organise anything we wanted to do and we felt very supported staying in the middle of the Medina. This is a hidden gem and a wonderful place to really get the feeling of Morocco in a real way. The young lady who served us breakfast and dinner was such a good cook and considering we were there in Ramadan, we admired her commitment to work around this. Thankyou Patrick and Frederick
Nothing to dislike here.
Frederic! The staff. The road. The food!
No internet in room
Frederic has offered all kind of advise and bookings. Nice environment to share experiences.
The neighborhood is in a corner of the Medina with a nice walking distance to the Center, not a problem if you have GPS or took a taxi. We didn't and we have experience to be lost several times, doesn't matter if you are on holidays and you want to experience such adventure. So it is not bad but be aware.
Beautiful riad with very good standard accommodation and service. Breakfast was good, but the dinner we had there twice was amazing. The owner, Patrick, was extremely helpful. For this budget range, excellent value for money.
Nothing worth mentioning.
The room was very comfortable and the staff was very helpful.
It was deep in the medina and I had some problems with harassment at night.
This raid is open and spacious, having been to others this makes it airy and quiet, a real bonus. Patrick is relaxed, helpful and friendly, a great proprietor. Do eat in, it was some of the best food we've had although not really promoted. Lovely roof terrace to chill on. Comfortable and very clean. Very reasonable cost for what you get.
Location can be hard to find, just get a taxi home. The location is more than compensated by the price.
The riad is beautiful and the pictures do not do it justice. The service is phenomenal and you will be treated excellently by both Patrick and Frederick the managers and the support staff. Everyone will go out of their way to make your stay as hassle free and memorable as possible. I do not think you could stay anywhere better in this budget range. People have commented on the location being difficult, it isn't really, after a couple of trips out of the riad you will work it out.
the staff, the decor, the friendliness and always eager to help was a lovely attitude to be surrounded with during holidays at Riad Ka. The food was amazing there and breakfast always seemed to be ready when one wanted to eat :-) you could always ask for suggestions and Ferderic & Patrick both are lovely and considerate. beautiful room. Its imp to get taxi for first time to the Riad as its quite hidden.
Can't rave enough about Riad Ka! The Riad is beautifully designed and decorated with a great eye to detail, a true oasis of peace and beauty inside the chaos of the Medina. The owner has been super helpful and friendly during the whole stay. Definitely recommended and would book again indeed!
Beautiful room (Fes), great breakfast and dinner, very friendly and helpful staff. Frederic organized the taxi from the airport and even went out to buy tickets for a day trip. The Riad is based in the north of medina and not so easy to find on your first day but if you struggle finding your way a taxi is just about 3-4 € from the central square.
It was a great experience with friendly and hospitable staff. We ate once in the Riad and the food was amazing. The location can be a bit intimidating but to us it was all part of the authentic experience of living amongst the locals. It was easy to visit the modern part of the city once you got used to it. We only got lost on the first day but after that got used to the maze of little streets. The Riad itself was brilliant and we shall be returning there with our children next year.
The wi if was only available in the reception area but we don't go on holiday to have wi fi so to is it wasn't a big issue!
Can't thank the staff and Frederic enough. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Riad Ka.
Wonderful accommodation in a quiet area, with great facilities.
Going to and from the main square was tricky, as needed to travel via the Souks each time, and as anyone knows easy to get lost in them!
The riad itself, beautiful maroccon experience..
Friendly staff, very helpful, good tips. Beautiful riad, the rooms are fantastic!!
It is a long walk to the big square (25 minutes)
Best riad in Marrakech, awesome people, amazing place
Nothing, everythin perfect
The riad is just marvellous and romantic, a little bijou in the middle of the medina, just as a real morroccan riad is supposed to be. We can recommend having dinner in the riad, the couscous was excellent! The staff is great and gave us all the tips we needed, thanks again to Frédéric and Patrick!!!
Be aware that the surroundings (medina) around the riad is poor, but still safe though. People are very helpful and friendly.
The staff was really friendly and helpful. We liked the design, the whole place looks like a gallery, with lots of relly nice photos and paintings. big rooms and bathrooms. Breakfast was nice, the lady who cooks is a real Chef!
Very friendly and helpfull owner! Great accomodation, very charming style, by far best Riad experienced in Marrakesh.
Perfect Riad, Nice helpfull manager Frederik. Nice clean rooms and good breakfast. I Miss only a egg. You Will never forget such an experience of staying in this Riad.
Verry bad lokation , and you can't find it without help of lokal boys, who bring you to the appartement . You have to Pay the intimidating boys About 50 dirham. A suggestion is That you have to know That the Riad is lokated in a narrig lane apposite to nummer 109 in street "sidi Ghanem" . Hopefully you can find Riad Ka with this information without an expensive young guide. In the neighbourhood it's difficult to eat and the diner in the Riad is expensive ( About 250 dirham= 23 euro). Suggestion is to take bus nr 2 to central medina.
We were helped tremendously by Patrick when booking a desert trip and with any questions we had he was there. He is a ver friendly man and made us feel very welcome.
Beautiful riad in the medina of Marrakech! I recommend it to all people! The staff is perfect and gave us so many valuable tips!If I ever return to Marrakech, I will definitely choose again this Riad! ;)

Needleless I.V. systems have dramatically reduced the risk of needle-stick injuries, but their use can lead to dangerous omissions in technique such as these:
* failure to place a sterile cap on the tip of a reusable administration set that's been removed from a primary administration set, intermittent vascular device, or I.V. catheter hub and left hanging between uses. This exposes the tip to contaminants that could enter the patient's I.V. line when the tubing is reconnected.
* failure to aseptically clean I.V. injection or access ports. This also poses a risk of microorganisms entering the patient's vascular system.
* looping, intended to maintain sterility, a practice of attaching the exposed end of I.V. tubing to a port on the same tubing. This technique isn't recommended by the Infusion Nurses Society; you shouldn't use it unless your facility's infection control committee endorses it.
Facility policies and procedures for administering I.V. medications should include placing a sterile cap on the tip of the administration tubing every time it's disconnected and details on how to aseptically clean the injection or access port.
