As part of the Connect(); event, Microsoft introduced VS2015 Preview, which includes C# 6.0 with few more features. (These features are not included in my earlier post What is new in C# 6.0, as I already mentioned these features introduced by Microsoft in the Connect(); event few days back.)
- nameof operator – nameof operator allows developers to use program elements as text. In MVVM project, you are using property notifications, it is recommended to use strongly typed property notifications, instead of string. Because you are hard coding the property name, if you rename the property, you need to change the string manually. The nameof operator helps you to use the property as the parameter.
public string FirstName { get { return _firstName; } set { if (_firstName != value) { _firstName = value; OnPropertyChanged(nameof(FirstName)); } } }
Runtime will replace the property with the property name while generating the IL code.
- null conditional dot operator – as the name indicates it for null checking. This helps you to make null checking fade into the background.
static void PrintBook(Book book) { var name = book.Name; var price = book.Price; Console.WriteLine("Name :{0} - Price {1}", name, price); }
I have a function like this, which will print the name and price of the book. Please note I am not doing any null check, if the book instance is null, it will throw exception. The null conditional dot operator helps to avoid this validation and processing. If you are invoking a property of null object instance, it will return null for that property as well, it won't throw null reference exception.
static void PrintBook(Book book) { var name = book?.Name; var price = book?.Price; Console.WriteLine("Name :{0} - Price {1}", name, price); }
In case of value types, Visual Studio will treat the type of the variable as nullable, if you use null conditional dot operator.
- string interpolation – Another cool feature, which will help you to manage string formatting easy. In the current framework, you need use string.Format function, it little complex, you need to put numeric place holders ({n}) and based on the number you need to set the variables. String Interpolation will help developers to use actual variables as placeholders.
var message = string.Format("Book Name :{0} Price :{1}", name, price);
Can be re-write like this.
var message = "Book Name :\{name} Price :\{price}";
It supports IntelliSense for the variable names, also variables can be identified with different color.
You can download VS 2015 Preview from here
Happy Coding

Suvereto House Rental Photos and Description
Individual accommodations close to the sea, nice for bathing & biking holidays
The small guest house is located in the back-country of the Etruscan coast in southern Tuscany. It is a lovely place. Many guests love to come back again. The manor with its 3 individual and comfortable apartments is located in a very quiet place. There are no noisy streets. It is surrounded by wine yards and olive groves. Quiet lanes and paths go in all directions. On its quiet way it is just 20 km in western direction to reach the sea. The wide km long beaches are rugged and untouched. There are soft sandy beaches around Follonica and also lonely bays and rock coast at Barattil/Populonia. Not far away is the next village Suvereto. There you have plenty of shopping facilities and different bars and restaurants. It is easy to reach historic places like Siena, San Gimignano, Pisa and Massa Marittima.

It is a variety of cycling guests, or people who seek rest and also professional ones. They cycle daily over the flat field lanes to the sea. They also drive over streets which have not much traffic to visit different places and small villages. It is fun to explore the region by bike. The guest house is the starting point and is located on a height of 70 m. In direction of the coast the area is flat but the more you get into the countryside the higher and steeper it will be (up to 700 – 800 m). The sun is shining a lot. There is only rain during the winter. From March to the end of October it is dry and warm. A lot of months the area is dried up.

Release Date:
August 28, 2007
Part II of a six-part series on the history of art from medieval times to the Post Impressionist age, this documentary highlights painting in the Impressionist and Post Impressionist era. Rejecting the traditional art rules that preceded it, the new school eschewed somber colors and classical subjects in favor of using light and color to convey emotions. Subjects were drawn from nature and everyday life. The revolutionary art met with almost universal disdain. Some of greatest artists by today's reckoning never achieved success at the time. Vincent van Gogh was one of this number. His works are featured, along with those of Seurat, Manet, and Cezanne. Paul Cezanne is often called the father of modernism for his use of almost abstract forms to depict the structure of his subjects. Among the paintings considered in depth are Gare St. Lazare, Dance at the Moulin de la Galette, La Mont St. Victoire, and The Bathers. Rose of Sharon Winter, Rovi
This documentary is the last of a six-part series tracing the history of art from medieval times to the Post Impressionist era. Each selection focuses on a different age, considering significant artists of the times, some of their outstanding art works, and the homelands which shaped their artistic sensibilities. The Baroque era is featured here, covering European and colonial art of the 17th and early 18th centuries. The development of the baroque style began in the early 1600's in Italy, with the work of Caravaggio, whose works are featured in this film. There are also works from the great masters Rembrandt and Rubens. Paintings included are Las Meninas, Marriage a la Mode, The Conversion of St. Paul, and The Lion Hunt, providing the viewer with a luminous visual feast. Rose of Sharon Winter, Rovi
This documentary is Part IV of six-part series on the history of art from medieval times to the Post Impressionist age. Painters of the age, and the landscapes that shaped their world view, are considered, along with some of their most outstanding art works. This segment is a look at the Romantic era, when the strict classical disciplines of the eighteenth century gave way to art characterized by a love of nature, rural life, and revolution. All across Europe, people were breaking free of the chains of feudal systems and demanding recognition of the significance of their lives. This feeling is reflected in the art of the times. Featured in this production are the works of the English artist John Constable, called the father of modern landscape painting. There are gorgeous paintings by J.M.W. Turner, whom many consider to be the greatest landscape artist of all time. Also included here are works by de Goya, the brilliant Spanish painter. This film is a dazzling collection of Romantic art at its best. Rose of Sharon Winter, Rovi
This film is part of a 6 video series on the history of art from the medieval period to the postimpressionist age. Each of the series features a look at the lands that produced the artists, as well as many works representative of the times. In the first of the series, the art of the Renaissance is showcased. Derived from a French word for rebirth, the Renaissance described the period of European history from the early 14th to the late 16th century. The term originally applied to the revival of the values and styles of classical antiquity. Among the Renaissance painters whose works appear in the film are the Italians Michelangelo Buonarotti, Leonardo da Vinci, and Raphael Santi. Also included are works by Hans Holbein, one of the great portrait painters of the northern European Renaissance. The film studies such paintings as the Mona Lisa, The Last Judgment, The Last Supper, and The Ambassadors in stunning color and detail. Rose of Sharon Winter, Rovi

His idea for a hook-and-loop fastener, now known as Velcro, was initially met with condescending skepticism by the European fabric industry.

It took another 14 years to patent the "zipperless zipper" and in 1999, de Mestral was inducted into the Inventors Hall of Fame.

Some people think the Great Recession has killed the American dream, says Edward Luce in the Financial Times. The truth is that "the slow economic strangulation" of the U.S. middle class began a generation ago, and the current economic downturn has only exacerbated the situation. Due to what economists call "median wage stagnation," the annual incomes of the bottom 90 percent of U.S. families have been essentially flat since 1973 — the median U.S. income actually dropped by $2,000 in the economy's last expansion, between 2002 and 2007. While most Americans have been "treading water," the incomes of the wealthiest 1 percent have tripled. It sounds "profoundly un-American," but the reality is that most of the middle class is now slowly working its way down the income ladder. Here, an excerpt:
Technically speaking, Mark Freeman should count himself among the luckiest people on the planet. The 52-year-old lives with his family on a tree-lined street in his own home in the heart of the wealthiest country in the world. When he is hungry, he eats. When it gets hot, he turns on the air-conditioning. When he wants to look something up, he surfs the internet...
Yet somehow things don't feel so good any more. Last year the bank tried to repossess the Freemans' home even though they were only three months in arrears. Their son, Andy, was recently knocked off his mother's health insurance and only painfully reinstated for a large fee. And, much like the boarded-up houses that signal America's epidemic of foreclosures, the drug dealings and shootings that were once remote from their neighbourhood are edging ever closer, a block at a time...
Mention middle-class America and most foreigners envision something timeless and manicured, from The Brady Bunch, say, or Desperate Housewives in which teenagers drive to school in sports cars and the girls are always cheerleading. This might approximate how some in the top 10 per cent live. The rest live like the Freemans. Or worse.

Review: Tempted by P.C. and Kristin Cast
Title: Tempted (A House of Night Novel #6)
Author: P.C. and Kristin Cast
Genre: Paranormal Romance, Young Adult
Publisher: Atom (27th April 2010)
This blood smelled too dark. Too thick. There was too much of something in that wasn't human. But it was still blood, and it drew her, even though she knew the wrongness of it deep in her soul.
Dangerous secrets come between Zoey and Stevie Rae, putting the House of Night at great risk. Stevie Rae, with her super red vamp powers, thought she could handle keeping stuff from her BFF, but her latest secret is a big one. Zoey's left with trust issues while she needs her friends – and boyfriends – like never before.
Zoey banished malevolent immortal Kalona from Tulsa, but the battle is far from over. He now seeks power at the highest levels, and the Vampyre High Council is falling under his thrall. Without Zoey's help, the world could still burn in the fiery hell of Aphrodite's visions. And will Zoey's connection with A-ya, a Cherokee maiden who tempted Kalona in ages past, help or hinder her resistance to the dangerously seductive immortal?
Two girls walk a tightrope between good and evil. And their choices will see everything they love saved – or destroyed.
Rating: **** (4 stars)
Tempted is the sixth book in P.C. and Kristin Cast's House of Night series. The story starts almost directly after the events of Hunted, and as such this review will contain spoilers for previous books in the series. This book is a really good read; on a par with the previous books in the series.
There is one notable change in the format of Tempted to the previous book in the House of Night series, and that is that the book has multiple narrators. The introduction of the multiple narrators allows the plot to split into two distinct areas. I think the splitting of the narration works well, as it shows the broadening scope of the plot. It was a bit of a surprise, but I quickly got used to having more than Zoey's point of view, and the Casts were clever and made sure that the none of the narrative threads crossed (which I have to say I was very pleased with, as the same scene wasn't described twice).
Tempted is a slimmer book to Hunted, but it is just as action-packed. There seems to be no let up for Zoey and her friends. In this book things come to a head, and events start to overtake Zoey. It's interesting to see how she and her friends meet these challenges. And how Zoey struggles with her feelings for Kalona, as A-ya's feelings conflict with her own. There's also something of a resolution to Zoey's boyfriend issues in this book.
The ending of Tempted is something of a shock; I didn't see the ending coming and was a bit blindsided, but I think it was a brave move by the Casts and a rather brilliant one. I'm looking forward to how they plan to resolve it in the next book in House of Night.

West Ham (H) Sat 22 Nov 2014, 15:00, Barclays Premier League
10 January 2013 10:48
Everton are aiming to continue their perfect start to 2013 when they entertain Swansea City on Saturday afternoon.Here we preview the Swans' trip to Merseyside with the aid of stats, facts and numbers… 0 Victories by Swansea in the 16 matches played against Everton in all competitions. The Welsh side are statistically our favourite opponents, with 12 games won by Everton and four drawn. 4 Everton's all-time goal difference in the Premier League. The Blues have scored 1,009 and conceded 1,005. If the Toffees win on Saturday it will be our highest positive goal difference in the Premier League, having also reached +4 in the opening weeks of the inaugural season of 1992/93. 5 League defeats for Everton in the 12 months to the date of Saturday's game, equalling the Club record for fewest league losses over the period of a year. This was first set between March 1962 and March 1963, then equalled in September 1968 to September 1969. 9 Times Everton have won their first three matches of the calendar year. This was most recently in 1991 and it will happen again should we beat Swansea on Saturday. The other years in question are 1897, 1912, 1931, 1939, 1947, 1949, 1985 and 1987. 10 Years on Saturday to Leon Osman's Everton debut, which was against Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane on 12 January 2003. The midfielder has scored 48 goals for Everton in all competitions, one of which was the winner against Swansea at Goodison Park last season. Osman is the only player to have scored for the Toffees in all three domestic competitions this season. 17 Times Everton have struck the woodwork in the Premier League this season – more than any other team. 20 Consecutive matches in which Everton have scored. If the Blues find the net again on Saturday it will equal the sequences of 21 successive scoring games, the others being December 1961 to April 1962, December 1984 to April 1985 and October 1985 to February 1986. The only longer run of scoring in successive matches in the post-War era is 24, which was from October 1946 to March 1947. 25 Minutes that separated the first and last goals scored at Goodison Park by legendary strikers Graeme Sharp and Bob Latchford. In our 3-1 win over Swansea in December 1981, the young Scot found the net with a header after 50 minutes. Later, the Latch, who had left Everton the previous summer, scored a consolation 15 minutes before full-time. 52 Goals scored in matches between the two clubs, with 40 by Everton and just 12 by Swansea. 399 Goals scored by Everton at Goodison Park under David Moyes in all competitions.

A nice complete reference of what's out there.
I love reading about the design process, but this video showing the evolution of Convert for the iPhone is even better.
Love this post from Rands In Repose and it couldn't come at a better time. I'm working on finishing up a lot of little details on a web application and it's great to remember how important these little things are.
Some really nice improvements both functionally and visually for the debug tools for the Web Inspector in Webkit.
Looks like a great port of my favorite "pop over" javascript technique in my favorite javascript library jQuery. I'm sure I'll be using this somewhere in the near future. Nice work Steve.
A huge congratulations to everyone involved! For those curious few out there this site is Django powered, and although I haven't been actively involved in the community or developing with it for all that long, I have to say it's easily my favorite way to build websites. The freedom and control it provides to get my designs realized quickly hasn't been possible with anything else I've used. With Django I've always felt I've been doing things "the right way" and to see it at 1.0 is just one more reason to check it out if you haven't already.
I love all the bundles in Textmate, except how difficult they are to install. GetBundle makes easy to quickly grab 'em. Highly recommended.
Nice new site from Paul Boag for his podcast. I finally met him briefly at SXSW this year and he was great to talk to. The inaugural interview for the new site is friend and fellow Blue Flavorite, Jeff Croft.
A great solution for remote file access. I still don't know why this wasn't been built directly into the OS years ago though.
A new resource for developers out there looking to maximize the Flickr API.
Looks like a great way to start hosting something for free just to see where it goes.
Enjoy the killing.
Saved for quotes on an article I plan on writing a little later.
For those days when there's really no way around Internet Explorer 6 and transparent PNGs.
A valiant goal. I think the web standards project was successful in eventually getting the browser makers to change their ways so more power to the email standards project.
Interesting thoughts on User-generated content. I agree a lot with what he says.
Looks like a great technique.
"I was born a programmer. The rest is just implementation detail." Worth the long read.
Garrett Dimon on colors for his bug tracker. He's gearing up to write a series this week on his development of a bug tracking tool that looks to be fantastic.
Looks like a great clean, lightweight CSS framework.

Breeding for growth and development
The group focuses on investigating the genetic regulation of phenotypic diversity. The two main crop species that we work on are Brassica oleracea and B. rapa on the one hand, and potato at the other hand. In Brassica a main team is to understand the enormous phenotypic diversity, with in B. oleracea cauliflowers, cabbages, kohlrabi's, Brussels sprouts and kale and in B. rapa a similar diversity in crops. The potato sequence was released in 2011, and opens possibilities for further trait discoveries. This recently led to the cloning of the earliness gene. Research focusses on tuberization and responses to stress.
Crops: potato, B. rapa, B. oleracea.

Call It Out: Lawmaker Tells Pro-Equality Football Player to 'Concentrate on Football'
September 10, 2012 by HRC staff
Post submitted by Dan Rafter, Former HRC Associate Director of Communications
Maryland Delegate Emmett C. Burns is trying to tamp down the backlash he's facing after he sent a scathing letter to the owner of the Baltimore Ravens last week calling on stop allowing linebacker Brendon Ayanbadejo to speak out on marriage equality.
In the letter, Delegate Burns wrote: "Mr. Ayanbadejo should concentrate on football and steer clear of dividing the fan base…" and went on to urge the owner to "inhibit such expressions from your employee" and order him to "cease and desist such injurious actions."
A growing number of professional athletes support LGBT equality, and many fair-minded folks are stepping up and defending Ayanbadejo – including fellow athletes like Minnesota Viking Chris Kluwe.
Take action now – tell Delegate Burns that trying to stamp out different opinions crosses the line.
You also can tweet your appreciation to Ayanbadejo and Kluwe for their support – take action below!

Review of New York City
Wander on Inn to this fab hostel!
Advantages: Price, food and location!
Disadvantages: The bed's were too old and the shower could be cleaner!

Rowdy travelers, dirty rooms shared with 10 complete strangers who look like they haven?t washed their clothes in months. Sounds about right for your average hostel. Not the Wanderers Inn!

Review of Wanderer´s Inn Hostel, New York
Hotel New York, Disneyland Paris
Advantages: clean, luxurious, location, characters
Disadvantages: cleaner stole but would have happened in any resort hotel
...When we came to be looking to book to go to Disneyland Paris we obviously had to spend a bit of time thinking about the accomodation that we wanted to stay in. Most of the people I knew had stayed in the Hotel Cheyenne which was one of the cheaper hotels on the resort but we decided that we wanted to stay closer to the Disney village and parks and so we decided to stay in the Hotel New York...

As I watched my son standing at the end of the kindergarten line -- flapping both his mouth and his arms -- I knew I had made the right decision.
My eldest was a November baby. Under state law, so long as he turned 5 by Dec. 2, he could have started kindergarten at age 4. I was a new mother, but I knew better than to send him too early.
Twenty-two years ago he started school at 5 years old, and good thing. As it was, he lagged in scissor skills and he was last in his class to learn to tie his shoes. (Although he still wraps the lace around two rabbit ears, this has not affected his success in law school.)
In preschool, I wanted the teacher to love my child. In kindergarten, I knew the teacher would grade him. I volunteered in the classroom hoping, perhaps, the teacher would at least love me. With three children, I went to kindergarten three times.
Even then -- when kindergarten still had a play kitchen in one corner -- it was asking a lot of a 4-year-old. Students spent a week studying the letter "A." They traced it and glued rice to outline its shape. On Friday, they ate apples.
Most states require a child to turn 5 by Sept. 1, but California is one of only four states enrolling children younger.
This year, after 13 tries, the state lesgislature passed a measure to change the cutoff date from Dec. 2 to Sept. 1.
It's about time.
In Danielle Zavala's class at Horace Mann Elementary School in Anaheim, kindergarten feels like postgraduate work for preschool.
Apples still get a lot of attention -- but not as the letter of the week. Apple is a word in a sentence.
Small groups of students rotate to their teacher where they read and write.
They build sentences starting with "I," (the "high frequency word" of the day; there are 29 more.) They read it and write it - "a stick" with "a hat" and "shoes." Each child then chooses from the list to complete sentences that begin with the words "I see..."
Irwin Mancilla reads his finished paper: "I see a red car."
"Very good," Zavala beams. "You're reading."
The first group traces words, but the next is able to write their words independently. Another group only creates one sentence all together.
In this classroom, six of 33 students are 4 years old. They could be as much as a year younger than the oldest students. One was born on Dec. 2.
"Usually," Zavala notes, "the students with challenges have a fall birthday."
Her own son has an October birthday, and she did not send him to kindergarten until he was nearly six.
Later, the class will describe the color of apples, write a sentence about it and count the words in that sentence. Each child then will read it aloud before leaving the rug.
It's intense – and this is only day 27 for this kindergarten track.

Review | Dates to Watch For | Follow-Up | U.S. Economic Calendar | Consensus Estimates | Coming Earnings | Coming U.S. Auctions
When it comes to timing stock-market reversals, there is generally no stone investors will leave unturned. And, given all the celestial activity that has been occurring lately (think of the meteoric explosion over Russia) it can't hurt to take a look at one of the quirkier market timing correlations—sunspot activity.
The attention of those who question the validity of the model should be directed to a recent note in Universal Economics, a regular missive published by money manager Paul Macrae Montgomery. According to Montgomery, there is "a huge volume of research which confirms that solar activity, as measured by sunspot frequency, is significantly correlated with various forms of human activity," he told Barron's. Among them: marriage rates, women's fashions, and, yes, market prices of common stocks.
Caution: Solar activity has typically been correlated with all forms of human behavior—including buying stocks. Wlliam Waitzman for Barron's
Indeed, "few conventional stock-market models have outperformed sunspots over the last two decades," writes Montgomery, who also invented the magazine cover index, which holds that bold declarations of economic or market trends on magazine covers are the perfect contrary indicators.
Typically, the greater the solar activity, as measured by sunspots, the better it is for market prices. Indeed, using the sunspot activity and other, more traditional data, Montgomery was able to avoid big market downturns in 2000 and 2002, and started buying right after the 2009 bottom.
So what is the sun saying now? The scientific consensus is that sunspots should top between May and September. But Montgomery won't exit the market unless other data confirm the sunspot moves.

Falcons center Todd McClure had a slightly different view, at least until he was bowled over as Ryan hopped and skipped down the field to embrace receiver Michael Jenkins in the end zone. With one of his bounces, Ryan knocked McClure to one knee.
``It was like that commercial where the guy sees a girl on the beach and he thinks she's running at him and she's actually running at the guy behind him,'' McClure said Wednesday. ``That was kind of what I felt like. He just kind of pushed me to the side and kept going to the end zone.''
No apologies were necessary, but the rookie heard from the 10-year veteran.
him pretty good after that touchdown. But I think it was all in good nature, because I think everybody was pretty pumped up after that one.''
It may have been impossible to script a more memorable debut for the No. 3 overall draft pick from Boston College. It also made for a difficult act to follow as Ryan and the Falcons prepare to visit Tampa Bay on Sunday.
``It was just one performance, and I think that's the biggest thing,'' Ryan said. ``We have 15 more to go and we have to do everything we can to get better. There are a lot of areas for us to improve.''
Ryan was 9-for-13 for 161 yards with the touchdown and no interceptions. After Ryan's big play on his first pass, Michael Turner dominated the rest of the game, setting a team record with 220 yards rushing and a career high with two touchdowns in the 34-21 win.
Turner, who averaged 10 yards per carry, showed why he's called The Burner.
Ryan, who played with poise, showed why he's called Matty Ice, a nickname Mughelli said began spreading through the locker room this week.
``That was a college nickname; actually, it started in high school,'' Ryan said. ``I don't know who picked it up down here.
``I respond to it, so I guess that's the mark of a good nickname.''
Ryan earned the nickname by performing with a cool demeanor, and he looked calm in his debut, at least when he wasn't trampling his linemen.
ame, though,'' Ryan said. ``It's not as true as everybody thinks.''
Poise will be important as Ryan makes his first road start, but his strong opening game helped convince his teammates he is ready for the next challenge.
``There's no real concern, and there never really ever was for Mr. Matty Ice,'' Mughelli said.
The opening performance came at home before fans eager to see the quarterback picked to replace Michael Vick as the new face of the franchise.
Mughelli says the rookie now has to brace for a different environment.
Even ice reacts to heat.
``It's going to be different in a road game in the regular season,'' Mughelli said. ``He's gotten over the hurdle of the first home game, but he's going to have to get used to the crowd noise and get used to the fans booing. He's gone through it in college, but it's different in the NFL.''
The Falcons can simulate crowd noise in practice. It's more difficult to prepare for Derrick Brooks and the Buccaneers' defense.
``Certainly it's a defense that has been around for a while,'' Ryan said.
``As a rookie you definitely want to bounce some stuff off the veterans' shoulders, because they know so much. I've been trying to do that this week.''
Better to bounce questions off the veterans than to bounce the veterans to the turf.
ay Ryan will react.
``I think for everybody, after working with him in training camp, we knew what he was going to be about and the confidence he has and the confidence we have in him,'' McClure said.
``We knew he was going to be able to go out and execute and that's going to be a key to our success the rest of the season, him being able to stay calm under pressure.''
