- The effect of iron on the stability, water content and compressibility of mantle silicates – Implications for a hydrous Martian interior (2010)
- Summary This thesis addresses three different effects of Fe on the properties of nominally anhydrous transition minerals and dense hydrous Mg-silicates. Furthermore, the potential presence of dense hydrous Mg-Fe silicates (DHMS) in the Martian interior and the water storage potential of a hydrous Martian mantle are evaluated. 1. The effect of iron on the water content of ringwoodite The results show that the water contents of Fe-rich ringwoodites of about 0.4-0.7 wt% H2O are considerably reduced compared to pure Mg-ringwoodite. Thus, the ringwoodite samples show an inverse correlation of Fe- and water content. The Mg-site octahedra represent the favored protonation site in ferroan ringwoodites corresponding to the Mg2+=2H+ water substitution mechanism. In addition, Fe3+ diminishes the water content of ringwoodites due to the reduction of potential protonation sites. This is caused by the creation of Mg-site vacancies by the oxidation of Fe and the occupation of octahedral sites by Fe-atoms, which are probably not involved in water substitution mechanism. These results indicate that less water can be stored in nominally anhydrous mantle silicates of Fe-rich planetary mantles. 2. The effect of iron on the compressibility of hydrous ferroan ringwoodite The effect of Fe on the compressibility of ringwoodite is particularly important for the interpretation of the structure of Fe-rich planetary interiors such as the Martian mantle. Measurements at ambient conditions yield to unit-cell lattice parameters of a=8.1597(6) Å and V=543.28(13) ų (run 3854) and a=8.1384(3) Å and V=539.03(7) ų (run 4218). The P-V data were fitted with a second-order Birch-Murnaghan equation of state. The first pressure derivative of the bulk modulus, K´, was fixed to the value of 4 yielding to the following refined equation of state parameters: V0=543.32(7) ų and KT0=186.5(9) GPa (run 3854) and V0=539.01(5) ų and KT0=184.1(7) GPa (run 4218). Structural refinements indicate significant octahedral vacancies in sample 4218 due to the presence of 0.1 Fe3+ a.p.f.u. and the substitution of ~0.37 wt% H2O. The values of bulk modulus of (Mg,Fe)2SiO4-ringwoodites found in this study are very similar to that of the Fe-endmember ringwoodite, which suggests that the Fe substitution has little effect on the compressibility of ringwoodite. This also indicates that the close-packing of oxygens of the spinel structure is the major factor in determining its compressibility. This cannot be affected by the presence of up to 0.1 a.p.f.u. of vacancies. 3. The effect of iron on the stability of hydrous mantle silicates The transformation pressure of olivine to wadsleyite (simple Martian mantle composition) is lowered by 2 GPa. The shifts of stability fields toward lower pressures are possibly caused by the presence of Fe3+ and H2O. The shift of the olivine-wadsleyite transition would result in an extended upper mantle transition zone, compared to the anhydrous mantle, and consequently yield an increased water storage potential of the Martian mantle. The DHMS, phase D and superhydrous B (SHyB) show stabilities up to 1300°C at 23 GPa (phase D, MgFeSiO4+9.5 wt% H2O bulk composition) and for the simple Martian mantle composition up to 1450°C at 20.5 GPa (phase D and SHyB), which represents a higher stability of DHMS than previously reported. This suggests that phase D and SHyB are relevant DHMS in Fe-rich mantles of planetary systems. 4. The potential presence of dense hydrous Mg-Fe silicates in the Martian interior and the water storage potential of a hydrous Martian mantle This experimental study of mantle silicates indicates that the Martian mantle consists basically of upper mantle with olivine, garnet and pyroxene, as well as upper and lower transition zone build up by wadsleyite and ringwoodite together with pyroxene and majoritic-garnet, respectively. The water contents of wadsleyite with 0.6 wt% H2O and ringwoodite with 1.1 wt% H2O are reduced compared to the Mg-endmembers. The Martian transition zone, however, shows the largest water storage capacity since the upper mantle mineral olivine accommodates up to 0.3 wt% H2O. Pressure and temperature conditions at the core-mantle boundary are insufficient to reach the perovskite stability field, i.e. a lower Martian mantle cannot be expected based on the results of this study. These results imply that significant amounts of water can be stored in the Martian transition zone as well as the upper mantle. In addition, DHMS would be stable up to 1450°C at 20.5 GPa in a hydrous Martian mantle model. On the basis of thermal evolution models of the Martian mantle, and Fe partitioning data between mineral phases and melt it is discussed that DHMS may form in the Martian interior at P-T conditions corresponding to the lower Martian transition zone.

Traditional Thanksgiving food is classic for a reason. Not only does it taste delicious, the aromas wafting from the kitchen often spark fond memories from your childhood of spending the day at home with loved ones. But maybe it's time to toss out the traditional, give your taste buds a swift kick in the tongue, and add some new flavors to old favorites. Have you ever thought of preparing duck instead of turkey? How about adding maple syrup to your sweet potatoes, or making cranberry sauce with wine? Why not top pumpkin pie with apple cider?
We asked some chefs to share how they add a twist to some time-honored Thanksgiving dishes, staying true to the spirit of the holiday while spicing it up with some signature touches of their own. These recipes might not be passed down through the generations, but they could give you a chance to start a few food traditions of your own this year.
Rick Kangas, chef and culinary arts instructor at Colorado Mountain College, adds a sweet red wine to his homemade cranberry sauce, which heightens the taste and makes this holiday mainstay "more luscious," he said.
Kangas said his version could convert those who typically stay away from canned cranberry sauce.
"Cranberries are something that has had a bad reputation," Kangas said. "If you tell (your guests) that you made it yourself, and with wine, they are more likely to try it and they always ask for the recipe."
1 pound bag of fresh cranberries
1 cup red wine or port
1 cup sweetener: sugar, agave nectar, etc.
2 tablespoons orange marmalade
1 cinnamon stick
Bring ingredients to a boil. Reduce to simmer, stirring as needed. Cook for 5 minutes or until most of the berries have popped. Allow to cool, then refrigerate.
Edwards chef Heather Weems doesn't specialize in pastries because "even though I love baking, being relaxed and sane is more important," she said.
However, when the holidays come around, Weems does enjoy tying on her apron and making a tasty treat that both young and old enjoy. Weems' recipe adds cider syrup to the topping, pleasing both pumpkin and apple pie lovers on Thanksgiving.
1 1/2 cups flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons shortening
5 tablespoons cold butter, diced
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon salt
Heat oven to 350 degrees. In mixer with paddle attachment, combine all but water. Blend to coarse crumb. Slowly add water until mixture starts to come together. Remove from mixer and form into hat disc with hands. Freeze for 10 minutes. Roll out and pre-bake with pie weights for 10 minutes.
1 (15 oz.) can of 100 percent pumpkin
3/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 teaspoons cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup whipping cream
1/2 cup sour cream
3 large eggs
Blend all ingredients until combined. Pour into pre-baked pie shell. Cook for 50 minutes at 350 degrees.
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/4 cup chopped candied ginger
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 cup flour
1/2 cup butter
Combine all ingredients. Squeeze butter through fingers until a course crumb forms. Remove pie from oven. Let sit 10 minutes. Thickly coat top of pie with crumbs. Bake for 50 more minutes. Cool completely on rack.
Cider syrup:
1 1/2 cups apple cider
Bring cider to a slow boil and reduce to syrup consistency. Drizzle over the top of the pie just before serving. If just serving a few slices, drizzle over cut slices. Garnish with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
Makes one 9-inch pie. Serves 8 to 10 people.
Avon chef David Giarratani switches up his sweet potatoes by adding maple syrup, not marshmallows, to give the dish an autumn-like feel.
"Sweet potatoes are kind of sweet but not too sweet, and adding the maple syrup will give it that fall flavor," Giarratani said. "Cardamom is great for the season because it has an allspice kind of flavor."
2 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
4 tablespoons of butter, cut into pieces
1 cup milk (your preference, I use whole milk)
1 tablespoon of cardamom, ground
1/4 cup of pure maple syrup
Salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste
Place the potatoes in salted water and boil until fork tender. While the potatoes are boiling, put the milk and butter in a saucepan. Heat the milk and butter until they melt, but do not boil. Once butter is melted, remove from heat. Once the potatoes are done, drain well and allow to air dry for a few minutes. In the same saucepan you cooked the potatoes in, mash them or run through a food mill. With a sturdy spoon, add the milk mixture a little at a time until the potatoes reach the desired consistency. Stir in the maple syrup and seasonings. Adjust to your taste.
Justin Kalaluhi, executive chef at Rocks Modern Grill, suggests marinated duck as a gamier, more flavorful substitute to the usual turkey entree. Kalaluhi said serving duck is a great option for smaller gatherings, and not as difficult to prepare as some think.
"Duck is a smaller bird, so you don't have to (cook) this huge 15-pound turkey in your oven, " Kalaluhi said. "Anyone can cook a duck. It's not that hard."
5- to 10-pound whole duck
4 ounces ginger, rough-chopped
4 ounces garlic, rough-chopped
2 ounces lemon grass, rough-chopped
2 pieces star anise
2 tablespoons ground allspice
1 cinnamon stick
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup soy sauce
1 cup blended oil
Combine all ingredients and marinate the whole duck, breast facing down, for 24 hours. Flip the duck over every 4 hours, until it's flipped over twice. Remove from marinade, place in a pan with a rack (breast facing down) and cook in the oven at 320 degrees (covered) until internal temperature reads 150 degrees for about 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Flip duck over halfway through cooking process. Remove cover and let cook for 5 to 10 minutes, until golden brown. Remove from oven and let rest for 15 minutes. Carve and enjoy.

Georgian Midnight Blue Enamel Ring in Box
Around 1775 an English jeweler developed a style of enameling which resulted in a smooth and translucent midnight or cobalt blue color. It soon became a fashion must among the royals and often sported applied diamonds upon the field.
Here we have a later Georgian (circa 1840) interpretation of this style ring in the form of an eternity or memorial band of 14 – 15k rose gold. Superb guilloché blue cobalt enamel covers the entire surface yet its translucency allows the intricate pattern of two different tiny star burst patterns to show through the deeply colored enamel. The enamel band is framed with gold borders each set with a row of half natural seed pearls (untested but assumed natural due to age and examination).
The ring is accompanied by its original Georgian brown leather box (with swivel hook clasp typical of the period) and dark cream colored silk interior. Written in script to the interior of one side of the top portion is " Eliza" and to the other a date of "Feb 20 / 40" which perhaps indicates 1840 or that Eliza passed on at the age of 40 and that the fairly large sized ring was worn perhaps worn by a man.
Measurements: 3/8 of an inch (0.9 cm) in length north to south on the hand. Weight of 6.0 grams (3.8 dwt).
Ring Size: US 9-1/2 (UK S-1/2; Int. Dia. 19.25; Euro 61 mm; Japan 19). This ring should not be sized down except by inserts and cannot be sized up. Please contact us for more details. Ring sizing information.
Condition: Excellent for its age and type. About 6 pearls with nacre loss and a few with tiny chips; at least one pearl, whiter than the rest is replaced. All visible with a loupe. Enamel excellent with just a few minute nicks visible with magnification.
Date & Origin: Circa 1840 and is English in origin.

Taxis and chauffeur driven vehicles in Paris
TaxisHaut de page
17,000 taxis operate in Paris, day and night. The owner or operator of the taxi holds a licence permitting parking on the public highway while waiting for customers, in order to carry out, at their request and in exchange for payment, the private transport of people and their belongings.
There's a unique phone number for all the taxi firms : +33 (0)1 45 30 30 30
Taxis : guidelines
How do you define a taxi?
It is a specially-equipped vehicle for up to 9 people, including the driver, for which the owner or operator holds a licence permitting parking on the public highway while waiting for customers, in order to carry out, at their request and in exchange for payment, the private transport of people and their belongings.
The special equipment comprises :
- the illuminated "Taxi Parisien" sign on the roof of the taxi
- a display meter showing the cost of the journey
- a display at the rear of the vehicle and visible from the exterior which enables the monitoring of the daily duration of use of the vehicle
a plate fixed to the front right-hand wing of the vehicle bearing the licence number
Attention! Anyone claiming to be a taxi driver who does not have a specially-equipped vehicle is illegal.
You can take a taxi :
- by hailing one in the street (it is free if the sign on the roof is lit up and green)

Nico Hulkenberg admits this season will be a "pretty unique situation for everyone" due to the new regulations.
Out goes the 2.4l V8 engines and in come the new 1.6-litre V6 turbo power units with hybrid technology, leaving most teams and drivers on the same footing at the start of the season.
Hulkenberg, who has returned to Force India this year following a one-year stint at Sauber, admits it is difficult to predict how much things will change due to the new rules.
"At the moment, nobody knows how this season and the new cars are going to be," he told the official Force India website. "There are a lot of questions which we can't really answer until we have been on the track, running - not even the first race will be the absolute truth teller. There will be a lot of data we need to look at and analyse, work with it to go forward.
"Never before there has been a situation like this, when with just a couple of weeks before the first test nobody has any idea of where everyone is.
"It's a pretty unique situation for everyone. It's a challenge, an opportunity to do something special, but on the other hand it opens up the opportunity to do mistakes, so we will need to do our work well."
The German will also have a new team-mate at the Silverstone-based squad this year as Sergio Perez has moved there from McLaren.
"It will be really interesting to work with Checo," Hulkenberg said. "We both have four years' worth of experience in Formula One, so you can say we are at a similar stage in our careers. Of course, we will both try to be in front of each other, but that's normal when you are in these circumstances. We thrive in a competitive environment and this is what we will have here."

Las Vegas hotels
When to book your trip
Indulge in the Glitz and Glamour of Las Vegas
Las Vegas has become the world's most popular holiday destination, with more visitors per year than any other city. That's quite an achievement for a city that's sprung from the Nevada desert and become a scarcely believable playground for all tastes.
Las Vegas hotels come in all shapes and sizes imaginable, from the Luxor pyramid, to the glitz of Caesar's Palace through to the decadent luxury that is the Wynn & the Encore at the end of the Strip.
While the city is marketed primarily as a place for adults, there's plenty for families to do as well. Most of the hotels in Las Vegas have catered in some ways for the underage, Excalibur has nightly jousting shows over dinner, Circus Circus has an indoor rollercoaster and amusement park & the MGM has a fantastic five pool complex complete with waterfalls & grottos.
Vegas is also the worlds largest conference and convention destination – you can be pretty sure that every hotel on the strip (and a lot of the off strip Vegas hotels) are hosting at least one gathering on any given day of the year.
With more meeting space than any other city in the world, Las Vegas hosts a number of high profile events throughout the year, including the ABC Kids Expo, the International Vision Expo West 2014, the Solar Energy Trade Show and Mr. Olympia. The city has a number of luxurious convention facilities, including the Cashman Center, the Sands Expo & Convention Center and the Las Vegas Convention Center.
The large casinos offer a variety of dining options, from buffets to gourmet food to simple cafes. Also, Las Vegas is known for great steakhouses with high quality meat cooked to perfection. This city is also home to the famous "Heart Attack Grill" which serves incredibly high calorie menu items such as the "Triple Bypass Burger". Most of the hotels on the Las Vegas strip feature both café type eateries through to fine dining, if you haven't been to the SW steakhouse at the Wynn (named after Steve Wynn's initials!) then you're missing out. The wine selection is second to none and the food is to die for.
Major Points of Interest
The most famous attraction in Vegas is gambling and there are countless enormous glittering casinos where you can spend hours hypnotised by card games and slot machines. This city also offers lots of great nightly entertainment, including comedy shows, live musical theatre, erotic dance clubs, variety shows and circus acts. Also, get a thrill on the rides, such as "The X-Scream" at the Stratosphere Hotel and "The Roller Coaster" at the New York New York Hotel. That's not all that Las Vegas has to offer though, you're only a short drive away from untouched desert with some of the best vistas in the States, Red Rock Canyon is less than an hour away, as is the world famous Hoover Dam, or the more adventurous could always book a helicopter ride and see the Grand Canyon.
Las Vegas is a shopping lover's playground, with many great malls to choose from. The Fashion Show Mall offers sweet styles from popular designers, the Town Square provides relaxing open air shopping and the Las Vegas Premium Outlets boasts discounts on your favorite brands.
The city's most important sporting event of the year is the finals of the annual Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association circuit. It is held in December at the Thomas & Mack Center. A number of hotels in Las Vegas have also hosted the annual World Series of Poker, most recently the Rio Hotel and Casino has held that honor attracting tens of thousands of professional players from across the globe. Las Vegas also hosts the USA Sevens, part of an annual circuit of events for rugby sevens teams.

There are a number of other components which may implement this interface in the future. The web service consumer components, Zend_Cache, Zend_Translate just to name a few.

Dec 26, 2007

This is a good improvement i think. I am using some sort of this code at my projects.

Is it possible that a component uses more than one config object, because you used addConfig. If only one i think it would be better to use setConfig instead.

Greetz Tom

Jan 16, 2008

I can't imagine a usecase for more than one configuration object. Nevertheless addConfig() seems appropriate, as it is not

<ac:macro ac:name="code"><ac:plain-text-body><![CDATA[public static function setConfig()]]></ac:plain-text-body></ac:macro>

 for setting a configuration once so you basically add a configuration to an instance. The fact that you can add just one doesn't matter as I suppose.

Jan 16, 2008

This would be useful in Zend_Build. I'm not that enthused about 'configure' as an factory method name, but that's a minor quibble.

Jan 16, 2008

I don't bind my heart to "configure()". I would be fine with something like "newInstance()" or "getConfigured()".

Jan 16, 2008

This seems to be a good idea. Ive recently seen similar at Doctrine.

As mentioned by Wil 'configure' can be renamed to 'newInstance' like 'getInstance' at the Singleton pattern, 'setInstance' from the Registry or even 'newInstance' from spl's 'ReflectClass'.

Configuration of components are often very similar, so maybe an abstract class is an alternative.

Jan 16, 2008

As I replied to will, I don't mind changing configure() to a better name, while I had the feeling that configure() hits the purpose pretty well. "newInstance()" is a bit too generic, as it does not explain the pre-condition for the instanciation (which is having a configuration object). "getConfigured()" is long and not easy to spot. So, until now I'm just undecided.

btw: can you explain the idea of the abstract class a bit further as I can't imagine how you mean it.

Jan 19, 2008

I dont know, if its useful to force a configuration object on configure()/getInstance(). So if the object can be omitted, getInstance() would fit again <ac:emoticon ac:name="wink" />

A very simple example

<ac:macro ac:name="code"><ac:plain-text-body><![CDATA[abstract class ConfigureAble
protected $_options = array ();
public function setOption ($key, $value)Unknown macro: { $this->_options[$key] = $value; }
public function setOptions ($options)
foreach ($options as $key => $value)Unknown macro: { $this->setOption($key, $value); }
public function getOption ($key)Unknown macro: { return $this->_options[$key]; }
public function getOptions ()Unknown macro: { return $this->_options; }
Jan 19, 2008

Sry, ive send my post to early <ac:emoticon ac:name="wink" />

What i want to say: Setting and retrieving of options will be very similar in classes, which implement the interface, so it is possible to solve it in a class, which these classes could extends instead. The example ive posted are really simple. So an idea might be to set an option to a set*-method, if one exists. Or a option is only set, if the key is already found in the options-array. I think, the solutions how the interface would be implemented will be very similar.

Dont know, if im understandable now ^^

Greetz, Sebastian

Jan 19, 2008

This is out of scope of this proposal. "Setting and retrieving options" is a more general concept of object configuration, this proposal tries to achieve a generalization of object configuration with Zend_Config objects. As concrete object configuration is a domain specific problem Zend_Config_Configurable is and can be only an interface not an implementation blueprint.

A remark to your example: I think the setProperty($key, $value)/getProperty($key) pattern isn't the best idea as it complicates the API. setPropertySomething($value) is much easier to understand and document.

Jul 18, 2008

An abstract class (presumably with default implementations of the interface methods) would probably not be a good idea, since it could break many established class hierarchies. There are plenty of configurable objects that already have parent class that should not be changed.

Of course, if we had mixins, this wouldn't be an issue... <ac:emoticon ac:name="smile" />

Jan 16, 2008

I think it's a good idea.

I'm also for changing name from configure() to something conveying the factory idea better. Maybe actually configure() is a better name for addConfig() <ac:emoticon ac:name="wink" />

Jan 17, 2008

Thanks. I'm not sure about the idea of replacing addConfig() with configure(). Your are right, it seems more to follow the "describe a decent behaviour"-paradigm, while the Zend Framework often adopts the "object as a datastructure" paradigm. That's why I chose addConfig().

What about a small vote just to give me a more structured feedback. We have two topics, the factory method for retrieving a configured object and the addConfig()/setConfig()-question. So here are the options:

Topic 1 (factory)

configure(Zend_Config $config)

getConfigured(Zend_Config $config)

newInstance(Zend_Config $config)

Topic 2 (set configuration)

setConfig(Zend_Config $config)

addConfig(Zend_Config $config)

configure(Zend_Config $config)

Jan 17, 2008

My vote:

1: 1

2: 2

Jan 17, 2008

I'll write in getConfigurable() on 1, since that's what you're actually doing. <ac:emoticon ac:name="smile" /> I like configure() to replace addConfig() since add- or setConfig() don't make it clear that the state of the object will likely significantly change. Ultimately, configuring is the important thing that this method does, not really setting the config attribute.

I need something like this for Zend_Build, so I will put it in the Zend_Build component in the hope that you'll be able to get this in to 1.5 and refactor it before the GA. Let me know as soon as you're ready for the core team review.

Jan 17, 2008

You have in mind that changing it to configure() would require to break the API for Zend_Layout::setConfig(), Zend_Controller_Router_Rewrite::addConfig() and Zend_Filter_Inflector::setConfig()? I don't care for this but since you have stated that you want to keep the API stable this is maybe an issue.

Jan 17, 2008

Sorry, forgot about getConfigurable(). I think this is inappropriate as it seems like it would return an object which is configurable not a configured object what is actually does.

Jul 18, 2008

If getConfigurable() (or whatever it ends up being called) returns a configured object, then by definition that object must have been "configurable", right? Otherwise, how did it end up being a "configured object"?

Jun 18, 2008

Re: factory method name

getConfiguredInstance() is probably the best choice, but that's a lot of typing. getConfigured() is a good compromise.

Re: set configuration

configure(), definitely. No API break necessary (at least immediately) in Layout or Rewrite Router--just throw an E_USER_NOTICE and return self::configure($configuration); Then remove those methods in 1.7 or 1.8.

Jan 18, 2008

My Vote:

1: 2

2: 3

I also think that add or setConfig sounds more than a pure setter for a member variable. Configure() makes clear that something is done with the component. As Wil said already above.

Perhaps one would like to add a more statful component, for that, one wants to add the config object first, without configuring the component and at a later state he wants to trigger configuration of it. So, for that case configure() would be better instead of set/addConfig. I hope you can follow that, since my english is not the best. <ac:emoticon ac:name="wink" />

I would like to see this in 1.5. Keep up the good work.

Mar 08, 2008

I would also like to see this in the future. I think in 1.5 it will not appear <ac:emoticon ac:name="wink" />

Jun 18, 2008

Lars, this proposal has lots of community feedback on it, and it may be simple enough to get in to 1.6. Is it ready for recommendation? If so, please move it to that section.

Jun 18, 2008
Jul 02, 2008
<ac:macro ac:name="note"><ac:parameter ac:name="title">Zend Official Comment</ac:parameter><ac:rich-text-body>

This proposal has been moved back to Ready for Review

Since this proposal is attempting to solve a problem that has far and wide reaching consequences, and since we are approaching 1.6 release, we would like to send this proposal back to Ready For Review. The reasoning is such that we can continue discourse on what the best course of action is, as well as ensure we have the time and resources to dedicate to a proposal like this.

Jul 18, 2008

I really like the idea of having a standard interface for configuring objects. However, I don't understand the value of the factory method. What problem is does it solve or benefit does it provide? IMO, we could just drop it, and keep the interface as a nice simple marker for configurable objects, while standardizing the method name. I think the factory just confuses the component's purpose.

Another thing to consider, is that many "configurable" objects in ZF follow a pseudo-standard whereby they accept either an array or a Zend_Config object. IMHO, that is a good practice to preserve, and probably should be reflected in this API.

As for the method name configure() ultimately makes the most sense, but setConfig() is already used and well-understood in the framework.

Dec 16, 2008
<ac:macro ac:name="note"><ac:parameter ac:name="title">Zend Official Comment</ac:parameter><ac:rich-text-body>

At this time, the Zend team is opting for convention instead of strong typing. We will be documenting recommendations for configurable objects, along with standard solutions, but will not be creating an interface solution.

What is a retreat and why would one participate in one?
The word retreat suggests a temporary pulling back from the demands of one's everyday life. It's traditional purpose is to create space and time away to focus on something specific – to perhaps learn something new, such as a musical instrument or to deepen one's understanding or skill of something such as painting, or yoga, or meditation or to connecting with others around a particular issue. Such a retreat creates a kind of container that keeps out demands and distractions, allowing you to relax into a different sense of time, focus as much as you wish on a certain activity (or non-activity), take time for reflection. Apart from deepening one's skills in an area of focus, the result of such a process can include a sense of reconnecting with oneself and one's purpose in life, a deeper sense of appreciation of things and more clarity. Having accomplished this, we then return into our everyday lives with more to offer.
In addition to offering these more traditional types of retreats here, we also we also offer our guest the unique opportunity to incorporate aspects of a retreat into every day of their stay with us.
How do we do this? And what would be the purpose of participating in this process?
As to the how: One could begin by waking up one's body and senses with a short Morning in Motion class based on Qi Gong and shamatha yoga; and continue with a brief meditation and contemplation session setting the tone and intention for the day. One could choose to journal about the day's experiences and exchange with others at the end of the day. One could also kayak or yolo-board, hike, spend time in the gardens, or play music and write…the how's are up to you – allowing the internal chatter to slow down, and coming into the present moment.
The opportunities for opening the senses to the natural world here are endless. Feeling the rawness of the of the wind, taking in the power and the vastness of the sky and ocean, or immersing yourself in the night sky all are powerful experiences that awaking a part of us we may not ordinarily be in touch with.
Moreover, we encourage guests to approach adventures on land and water from a retreat perspective: With an open mind, willing to move a bit beyond one's comfort zone, with support and focus – enjoyment guaranteed!
So the purpose of this kind of retreating is to be more present to our lives – on the road and at home.
Cabot Shores also offers a variety of Group Retreats such as our annual Breast Cancer Action NS Survivors' Retreat, Yoga and other Healing Arts, Writing and Shambhala meditation retreats. You may also bring your own group and facilitators for a retreat of your own choosing, such as a team building, professional or social action retreat.
We can help you design a Personal Retreat tailored to your needs. Personal retreats are intended for individuals, couples, friends, mothers/daughters etc. For personal retreats, you tell us what you want to focus on, then choose from a menu of options including Healing Arts, outdoor adventures, cultural experiences, culinary adventures, or tours to such places as Glooscap Cave, Kalapa Valley and other spiritual places on Cape Breton, occasionally participate in Native ceremony or during July & August, visit Gampo Abbey.
Personal Retreats can be scheduled for any time of the year. Please inquire in advance.

From a participant of a Team Building retreat: "Both the Main lodge and the Farm House served us well for our training sessions and for general relaxing."
From guests who incorporated some retreat aspects into every day of their stay with us: "They offer a range of community experiences to satisfy the outer and inner life. we started most mornings with Barbara leading us in a Qi Gong class followed by a short session of guided sitting meditation – it was a great way to get centered for a new day of exploring Cape Breton".
