Fiquei encantada, belíssimo trabalho, a natureza agradece.ReplyDelete
Parabéns, fique com DEUS.
Feliz Natal.
Darling, darling, darling. I want to make some. But I have some questions.ReplyDelete
1.After you sprayed them with primer, did you use craft acrylic pants?
2. Did you glue the two halves together, or just wedge one inside the other? If you did glue, what brand or type of glue did you use?
3. Did you weight them with sand before you put them together?
Thanks for the close-ups. It helps us less-talented people get an idea of how to make the knit hat and scarf LOOK like a knit hat and scarf.
I will check back for your answers so you don't have to hunt around for my blog.
Amei os pinguins, to louca pra fazer tambémReplyDelete
These are adorable! I love these! You did a fantastic job with painting them too. I can't wait to make some of these. Thanks for sharing your talent with us.ReplyDelete

Lucy: These little guys have absolutely tugged at my heartstrings. So much so I've sent the link onto my daughter .... thought it would a perfect project for my grandsons to work on during March Break or at least on weekends leading up to Break. I also sent the link to a friend's daugher-in-law (Daycare Teacher), in hopes that they'll enjoy these wonderful little bundles of joy. Thank you ever-so-much for bringing into my little world. .........ashReplyDelete

Hi Lucy!ReplyDelete

Thanks for the inspiration!

they even have a GF pizookie
The pizza is pretty good and the pazookie is the bomb. Never an issue with contamination.
I hesitated to try this place, but admittedly this app and the other reviews convinced me. I went on a busy Friday night, so very crowded, but service was still very good. I had their pizza and definitely enjoyed it. we also got the pazookie. loved all of it.
This was the first time i danced in the seat since the food was so good. my non-celiac friends try and steal my GF pizza. i LOVE the chocolate chip pazookie too. It seemed to be too good to be true!
Pizza was really good.
Great gluten free pizza!
4502 S. Steele St., Tacoma, WA 98409
Amazing gluten free thin crust pizza! Would definitely go there again. Celiac friendly, and very nice people who are careful when making the food.
1325 Rancho Vista Blvd., Palmdale, CA 93551
I have several allergies. And they were able to deal with being gluten free and tomato free with no problem thums up as far as I'm concerned
1101 N. Central Expressway, Plano, TX 75075
Gf pizza good, but not many other choices.
7852 Mall Rd, Florence, KY 41042
enjoyed the gf pizza for lunch. offer a gf cookie dessert.
14714 Baltimore Ave, Laurel, MD 20707
Great food and beverages
5037 S Padre Island Dr, Corpus Christi, TX 78411
My first experience there was okay due to the waiter's lack of knowledge of the gluten free knowledge. The second time was amazing! the pizza and pizookie were incredible and service was magnificent. My top choice for gluten free food!
4151 Conroy Road, Orlando, FL 32839
My expectations after I read all this amazing reviews here have been so high, but the Pizza was really disappointing. The dough tasted exactly like the frozen GF Pizza you can get in Traders Joes, but the tomato sauce tasted really strange. For this stuff I don't have to pay that much. What I really appreciate is that they have a hugh list with so many allergens, that helps a lot.
1689 Arden Way, Arden B., Sacramento, CA 95815
I love BJ'S.
925 Blossom Hill Road, San Jose, CA 95123
We had a gluten free pizza and salad. Tasted great. No problems.
4502 S. Steele St., Tacoma, WA 98409
Had lunch there, they have an awesome GF menu, it's not huge but I felt better knowing what's in the food and they have a very good GF pizza crust.
2421 W. Osceola Parkway, Kissimmee, FL 34741
Amazing! I love their pizza and have never had a reaction from it (I'm pretty sensitive so that's saying a lot). Ate here today and the kitchen manager came out to rep over the menu with me, take my order, and personally made my GF pizza! I love their pizza so much that I got a second one Togo!
2951 Cold Springs Dr, New Braunfels, TX 78130
Great gf pizza and pizookie!!
3620 Fallon Rd, Dublin, CA 94568
They have a GF menu but pretty much nothing is GF
385 Sun Valley Mall, Concord, CA 94520
Gluten free pizza ordered with no cheese. No issues! Requested extra mushrooms once it came out and they brought a ton of them. At 12:30am!
5929 W Waco Dr, Waco, TX 76710
Always accommodating and careful of cross contamination
3200 Expressway 83, McAllen, TX 78501
I love the gf pizza! You can also get a pizookie ( desert cookie with ice cream). I haven't had any problems eating here.
2514 W. International Speedway Blvd., Daytona Beach, FL 32114
Did not get sick! The kitchen mgr explained to me how they cleaned, prepped and sanitized they gf area. That they take it very seriously. I ordered the gf Santa Fe salad with chicken and shrimp. I had vinegar and olive oil as my dressing. My waiter even talked of avoiding cross contamination! I have celiac and am very sensitive.
9748 W. Northern Ave., Peoria, AZ 85345
Best gf pizza I have had in town!
204 E. Via Rancho, Escondido, CA 92025
I get great gluten free pizza for here and I have never gotten sick. I love this place :) And the gluten free pizzookie is the best dessert! Gluten free hot chocolate chip cookie in a pan covered in ice cream! Yum
7960 East Kellogg Dr N, Wichita, KS 67207
I would say the gluten free pizza was average. The pazzookie and ice cream was delicious though. Omission GF beer was a nice IPA.
11520 4th Street, Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91730
Gluten free pizza, soup, and chocolate chip cookie were awesome, and I had no problems afterwards. I definitely recommend this place for Celiacs looking for a good place to eat out.
3800 Park Blvd., Pinellas Park, FL 33781
Save room for dessert!
5613 Paseo Del Norte, Carlsbad, CA 92008
The waiter did not know much about how the GF food was prepared in the kitchen. Menu was not great. We are dairy free too.
10446 Town Center Drive, Westminster, CO 80021
Always great. .. the balsamic chicken and horseradish mashed potatoes are my new comfort meal.
9401 Sage Meadow Trail, Fort Worth, TX 76177
I think this is celiac friendly it is delicious I have never gotten sick
1689 Arden Way, Arden B., Sacramento, CA 95815
Gluten free pizza is great! They double and triple check that the toppings are gluten free and make sure the kitchen staff knows.
14442 East Cedar Ave, Aurora, CO 80012
I go here often, always get the GF pizza and berry burst cider. I've never gotten sick from gluten here. (Note: I had been getting bacon on the pizza, but recently a waitress informed me the bacon is not safe for celiacs. So now I get the Italian sausage.) Fun place!
5447 W. Loop 1604 North, San Antonio, TX 78253
Good GF pizza. The GF pizzookie is a nice touch.
10750 Stockdale Highway, Bakersfield, CA 93311
The GF cheese pizza is delicious!!! The staff is well versed with GF requirements. The manager also stopped by to see if we had any other dietary restrictions.
2425 W. Memorial Road, Oklahoma City, OK 73134
Amazing staff and delicious GF pizza!!! I placed my order to go online. Shortly after ordering they called to inform me that one of the toppings I selected was not GF and would I like to cancel that topping. So awesome and considerate!
952 North East Loop 820, Hurst, TX 76053
The pizza was okay. It reminded me of every other gf crust I've had...thin and not very tasty.
10446 Town Center Drive, Westminster, CO 80021
Very good gluten free pizza with house made crust. Had a very good berry flavored gluten free cider. Waitress eats gluten free as well and was very pleasant.
3531 N. Freeway Blvd., Sacramento, CA 95834
Good for a chain restaurant. Be sure to tell your waiter/waitress about being GF. Double check before you eat anything. I've only had a couple of instances where there was a minor slip up. They are quick to fix it though but you must be cautious.
460 The City Drive South, Outlets at Orange, Orange, CA 92868
Got the gluten free pizza. I am very sensitive and did not get sick. The waitress told us they have dedicated equipment to make the pizzas. Very friendly and knowledgable staff.
2670 E Harmony Rd, Fort Collins, CO 80528
They had the best pizza crust .. it tasted like a regular thin pizza..would definitely recommend.
5150 North Nevada Avenue, Colorado Springs, CO 80918
Burt the manager was very helpful. My food was good and I even got the gf cookie. They told me all gf items are prepared with dedicated equipment so it seems like it's pretty safe. I can see how if wait staff is not careful one could get glutened so I think one must not be afraid to ask questions. I wish their menu was a little broader but I will try BJs again!
925 Blossom Hill Road, San Jose, CA 95123
Several gluten free options. Gluten free pizza was very good. Asked for extra crispy crust and it came out perfect. Also had the pizookie. Took a while to get the desert but well worth the wait. We will be back again.
4151 Conroy Road, Orlando, FL 32839
They have a separate chart that lists the gluten free options in addition to several other food allergens. My daughter got a GF buffalo chicken pizza. It tasted like a typical thin crust hand tossed pie. My daughter loved it. They have 2 soups available daily. We heard the choc chip dessert was yummy, but we were too full to try it. We all enjoyed our meals. I got a salad- it was huge! Glad we tried it.
3531 N. Freeway Blvd., Sacramento, CA 95834
Awesome staff and cozy atmosphere! GF pizza is yummy. Love their unlimited soup and salad luncheon combo.
5447 W. Loop 1604 North, San Antonio, TX 78253
Ask for Marcus when you go there. He's the most knowledgeable about GF. Never been glutened. I've eaten there at least 50 times in two years.
11905 Gateway Blvd., El Paso, TX 79936
The pork chops with cheddar cheese potatoes was absolutely delicious!
17503 IH 10 W, San Antonio, TX 78257
Our waiter was super knowledgeable about what was and wasn't GF. I ate the pizza and pizzokie and both were fantastic. I also got the berry cider and it was delicious.
10750 Stockdale Highway, Bakersfield, CA 93311
Got sick after eating glazed grilled chicken and bake potato off the GF menu.

Pizza is pretty good, standard crust most places carry these days, the real treat is the pizookie. they do pretty good here but cross contamination is still a possibility.

I have had a few mistakes where breaded and fried onions where placed on my balsamic glazed chicken, but are usually good about ensuring food is gluten free.
952 North East Loop 820, Hurst, TX 76053
Great GF pizza (made with venice bakery crusts), and the GF pizookie is to die for. The staff here can get rushed and such so I recommend not coming at a busy time to up your chances of getting treated properly as GF. I haven't tried the other entrees because the pizza is so good. Once you get a lot of toppings on there it can get pricey, but is worth it.

They provided the same menu as othe BJ's around the country. I ordered the scallops, it said it was completely gluten free. The food came out and the brown rice clearly had orzo or some sort of pasta pieces, when I asked the waiter, they looked at the menu and it stated it was gluten free... To my knowledge orzo isn't gluten free. I believe they mixed up the rice pilaf from the salmon and the brown rice from the scallops. I'm very disappointed.

They did provide us with a gf menu. Our waitress made sure to put allergy alert on our order. The gf cookie dessert was yummy. They even serve it in a different colored baking tin and use a separate ice cream scoop for gf.
7900 Shelbyville Road, Louisville, KY 40222
Absolutely fantastic dining experience! Delicious peach margarita, an awesome gluten free pizza, and a sweet glass of berry cider! Great environment; quiet but energetic. Knowledgeable and friendly wait staff. I will definitely be returning here the next time I'm in Louisville!
6401 Bluebonnet Blvd., Baton Rouge, LA 70836
I ordered the gluten-free pizza to-go. The pizza is thin crust and comes with sauce and cheese. Each additional topping is $1.00 extra or $2.00 extra for grilled chicken. I only added grilled chicken and green peppers, because I thought the toppings were overpriced. Overall, I enjoyed the pizza. I always eat very healthy, so this pizza was good to me.

President Barack Obama visited the West Bank City of Ramallah and met with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and urged Israelis and Palestinians to return to peace negotiations. Charles Levinson reports. Photo: AP.
President Obama made a public appeal for sacrifice in the name of peace during his visit to Israel. How will the visit play out stateside? Jerry Seib reports.
JERUSALEM—President Barack Obama sought to kick-start a Mideast peace effort in a speech here Thursday by wooing the Israeli public and then admonishing them that they must treat Palestinians better to achieve peace.
U.S. President Barack Obama visited Palestinian leaders on the West Bank shortly after militants in the Gaza strip launched four rockets into southern Israel. No one was hurt. WSJ's Charles Levinson reports from Jerusalem.
The U.S. leader, on a three-day visit, sought to shed past tensions with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and win the support of an Israeli public that has seen him as neutral or pro-Palestinian.
But after spending a day cementing his relationship with Mr. Netanyahu, the U.S. president took his appeal directly to a group of young Israelis, who were receptive to his message of fair treatment for Palestinians and peace in the Mideast.
Mr. Obama first met Thursday with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in the West Bank, calling for new peace efforts, hours after militants in Gaza fired four rockets into southern Israel. The rockets caused no injuries.

He then returned to Jerusalem to address Israeli students in a 30-minute speech liberally sprinkled with Hebrew and references to Israeli pop culture.
One of the loudest outbursts of applause and a standing ovation followed Mr. Obama's statement that "the only way for Israel to endure and thrive as a Jewish and democratic state is through the realization of an independent and viable Palestine."
A senior Obama administration official said the speech was aimed at getting the Israeli people to believe once again that peace was possible, calling it a necessary first step before floating more ambitious proposals.
"If people don't get reinvested in the idea that peace is possible, it doesn't matter what confidence-building measures you do," he said.
Secretary of State John Kerry has already begun meeting with Israeli, Palestinian and regional leaders to suss out how to revive peace negotiations.
Mr. Obama said on Thursday that Mr. Kerry would try to move the two sides closer to agreement, but the president didn't offer a specific plan for getting Israeli and Palestinian leaders back to the table.
Mr. Obama's approach Thursday appeared aimed at winning Israeli trust for his effort by showing them a robust embrace of Israel.

Many Israelis reacted warmly to the speech. "He made several points that were an absolute home run with Israelis," Israel's foreign-ministry spokesman Yigal Palmor said.
Israel's incoming deputy defense minister Danny Danon, a pro-settler hard-liner, praised Mr. Obama's "recognition of the historic connection of the Jewish people to the land of Israel." Mr. Danon said that connection justified continued Jewish settlement of the West Bank.
Mr. Abbas, after his meeting with Mr. Obama on Thursday, voiced hope for progress but said Jewish settlements in the West Bank were a hurdle on the path to a two-state solution. Mr. Obama backed away from the demand in his first term that Israel freeze settlements before entering negotiations.
Hani Masri, a Palestinian political analyst, said Mr. Obama's speech suggested the U.S. leader had shifted his support fully behind the Israeli narrative.
"Obama's second term is going to be even worse for the Palestinians than his first term," said Mr. Masri. "Receiving Obama in Ramallah today is a humiliation for the Palestinian people."
During a joint news conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, President Barack Obama affirms the U.S.'s commitment to Israel's security in the face of many challenges.
But Israeli and Palestinian officials said Mr. Obama's criticism of Israel's treatment of Palestinians was unusually direct and candid for a sitting U.S. president.
At a joint news conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, President Barack Obama discusses the strong partnership between the U.S. and Israel.
Arab Israeli lawmaker Ahmed Tibi, who is close to Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, said Mr. Obama "was the first American president who spoke like this about the suffering of the Palestinians."

Throughout the first half of his speech, Mr. Obama framed Israel's history and current security concerns in the same language that Israelis themselves use.
He denounced Hezbollah as terrorists, urged Arab countries to fully normalize their diplomatic ties with Israel, and reiterated his pledge to stop Iran from getting a nuclear weapon. And then, Mr. Obama shifted. He told the audience of Israeli students that Palestinian self-determination must be recognized.
"Put yourself in their shoes—look at the world through their eyes," he said.

Lord, help us. With the election, the economy, the business, the finances, the job, the world turmoil, and the senseless violence that permeates our culture, we are in need of some nurturing. It seems the normal holiday stress pales in comparison to the struggles and the losses so many have to endure. Just how are we to cope with the physical and mental stressors that we are so beset with? How can we process the grief that comes with loss of those so precious?
The acute stress of trauma, be it a threat, or sudden loss, causes a tremendous surge of the "fight or flight" hormone called adrenalin and following that is the stress hormone called cortisol. Cortisol, made by the adrenal gland, is a good hormone in that it helps us carry the body through times of stress, such as infection or physical trauma. It maintains blood sugar and blood pressure and helps squelch acute inflammation.The effects of cortisol are life-saving, but sometimes the stressor is so strong that it messes up the body's ability to mobilize cortisol in a normal and healthy manner. This is often the case in people who have been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder or PTSD.Chronic stress, such as that which comes with the day in and day out of our hectic lifestyles, can put the adrenal response on "simmer" and lead to a continuing low level alert. Persistently elevated cortisol levels will causes breakdown of healthy muscle and bone while promoting high blood sugar and fat gain around the midsection, and will change brain chemistry leaving us feeling irritated, depressed and fatigued. Furthermore, cortisol can wreak havoc throughout the body and is linked to most of the diseases we are dying from, including cancer, heart disease and diabetes.Clearly cortisol is a bad thing if it is called into action all the time. And to make matters worse, this long-term stimulation of the adrenal gland can also cause it to burn out and lead to adrenal fatigue, which is chronic fatigue combined with an impaired ability to respond to normal stressors.
With loss and grieving there is no way to avoid the stress response, only work through it, which may take months or years. For many, the stress is so great that it will leave a footprint forever upon the body and soul. Anyone losing a dear friend or family member knows the deep inescapable grief that takes hold. How we ever manage to get through these times is a testament to our strength, our spirit and our faith.The universal stages of mourning are experienced by all and were first described by Elisabeth Kubler-Ross in her 1969 book "On Death and Dying." Denial is the first reaction to overwhelming emotional shock of loss and it carries us through the first wave of grief. As denial wears off and reality sets in, anger arises, from deep inside where the emotional core of hurt resides.The third stage is a reaction to the need to regain control in the face of helplessness and vulnerability. Called bargaining, this is our attempt to postpone the inevitable reality of loss. "What if" or "what could I have done" thoughts intermingle with pleas of "if only I could undo what has been done."Depression is the stage of sadness and regret. Reassurance from those close can be critical for healing. A quiet internal struggle must take place in which one begins to say goodbye to a loved one. This leads to the final stage of grieving, acceptance.When working with patients going through the grieving process I always imagine it like being in a fog. Initially there is no light, only a thick fog of sadness. As time processes the emotions, the fog lifts a bit, letting in some light. Eventually, the fog clears enough for them to move forward in their "normal" life, but the fog often always present. At best, they are able to move around the fog and find meaning in life.Not everyone goes through all the stages of grieving, or in the exact order, and not everyone reaches the final stage of acceptance. There is no timeline for the grieving process. But throughout each stage, a common thread of hope appears. As long as there is life, there is hope, and as long as there is hope, there is life.
STRESS REMEDYSo we come equipped with this marvelous emergency stress response system that allows us to fight for our life or run for our life; this innate hormone system gave primitive man the energy to "fight the saber-toothed tiger." In today's complex world it seems we are always "fighting imaginary tigers" or "running from imaginary bears."For many of us, the best stress remedy is to simply divert our attention from a constant stream of worry to a more positive place. This might mean simply turning off the TV or the Internet and going for a walk. Taking 2 minutes to sit quietly and do some deep breathing is a powerful cortisol-lowering technique. Meditation, prayer, yoga, tai chi, exercise, hobbies, supportive relationships, all help lower cortisol. Focused activity is proven to lower cortisol and the stress response - so focus.Seeking help with grieving is good for most people, although the process is different for everyone and some need more introspective and quiet "alone time." As friends and family of one who is grieving we need simply remind our loved one that we are there, with reassurance, or just a hug. For those experiencing the loss, reach out to those friends and family and let them share a tiny bit of the burden with you. Professional counseling is something I've found helpful for many patients as well as myself during times of stress or loss.Things such as poor diet, lack of good sleep, chronic infections, allergies and toxic chemical exposures are other things that will trigger the stress response and eventually push the adrenal gland into fatigue. Address the issues you have control over. Nourish the body with healthy food so that it will be strong. Rest the body with plenty of good sleep so that it may heal and be resilient. Deal with stress or grief "head on" but then let it go for a bit and refresh the mind and the spirit. If you feel like stress is taking control then focus on the tools at hand to manage stress. Get medical help if the stressors seem to be beyond your control.During what should be a festive holiday season, remember those who are grieving. I pray for a "silent night" for them. Put aside petty concerns and focus on blessings. Don't let stressors win - don't let them keep you from enjoying the beauty that surrounds. Hold your loved ones close, savor the friendships and the times that nurture, and remember that the important things in life aren't "things."Scott Rollins, M.D., is board certified with the American Board of Family Practice and the American Board of Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine.

A local couple in the antique business will get some nationwide exposure next week. The Westfalls of Hilton will have some of their collection featured on the popular TV show American Pickers.
For Dennis Westfall, it is much more than a hobby.
"I view everything as art."
The Hilton man's been collecting for nearly all his life.
"I've bought more than I sold, and that's why I have a ton of stuff. Stuff is what it is, too... by the way."
If it's vintage...
"I normally like to get stuff I've never seen before."
And rare, chances are, he's interested.
"The problem is I'll collect something for a number of years and then get tired of that and move on to something completely different."
Finding antiques, especially the rare ones, can be competitive.
"So on Sunday mornings I'm up at the flea market chasing around, or knocking on doors, looking in somebody's barn. I love the thrill of the hunt."
The house Dennis, a school teacher, shares with wife Mary Frances is filed with stuff. Phonographs, paintings, even a suit of armor.
"I love it. It can be overwhelming at times as far as cleaning it," said Mary.
The Westfalls don't keep it all. They buy and sell all sorts of antiques.
"You know, it isn't the money, really. It's finding the right person for the right piece and being able to make that connection and know that they will be the stewards and the caretaker for that, and hold it near and dear to their heart, as we have for a certain amount of time," she said.
Over the summer, the Westfalls got a call from the producers of the History Channel's hit TV show "American Pickers."
"They were interested in seeing what I had," said Dennis.
The show's hosts came to Hilton to do a segment which is scheduled to air next week.
"They did film for 12 hours, and they did indicate they cut it down to 11 minutes, so I won't be getting my 15 minutes of fame, but maybe close to ten."
The Westfalls have so much stuff they can't keep it all at their house. So they opened up a shop, which is open in Brockport, on the weekends.
"If it catches my eye, it's in there."
The Westfalls hope to retire in a few years. In the meantime, they'll keep buying, and selling, and hunting for treasures.
"I find collecting and making somebody happy to be very rewarding. And I get rewarded because I get a few bucks to go get more stuff," Dennis said.

Orthaheel Mia Slingback Features:
To care for the exterior, wipe off the surface with a moist towel.
I was excited to buy more Orthaheels after trying my first pair of flip flips by them and finally feeling some relief for my flat feet and plantar fasciitis. I was told by the sales person who fit my Orthaheel flip flops in the store that I should only order size 8, because if the sole was too big, the built in arch support wouldn't be as effective. So I ordered a size 8 for this shoe, but it was half a size too small. My feet are wide and felt too tight with the upper part of the shoe. I hope to exchange these for a bigger size at my local store. It's too bad, since the sole and upper are comfortable and well made, just slightly too small.
Service was fantastic! Shoe seems to be a little narrow--I'm hoping it will stretch.I really like the orthoheel shoes and the style is flattering.
I liked the comfort of sole. This Orthaheel is my ultra favorite!!! My feet and knees always feel better than going barefoot or any other shoe. However, this particular style includes a looped knot detail that hurt the top of my foot and I was sorry to have to return them. But I have already purchased another Orthaheel!!!
Orthaheel has hands down the best arch support. The sandal is comfy overall and looks nice. I have narrow feet and wish there was one more hole on the buckle, but it still fits quite well as is. I'm incredibly glad I bought this pair!
This shoe is so great. I'm so glad I ordered it in black and pewter. It is very comfortable and wonderful for walking which I do lots of when traveling. It also looks nice.
So happy I bought this sandal in pewter and black. Looks great, fits perfectly and very comfortable.

The "Resource Requirements" tool or RRT is a tool for Zend Framework which checks the actual installation and helps the developer to see if there are missing extensions or ZF components.
Zend Framework: Resource - Requirement Tool Component Proposal

Resource - Requirement Tool
Developer Notes

Zend Liaison
1.0 - 01 August 2010: Initial Draft (wiki revision: 5)
Table of Contents
1. Overview

3. Component Requirements, Constraints, and Acceptance Criteria
<ac:macro ac:name="unmigrated-inline-wiki-markup"><ac:plain-text-body><![CDATA[
The "Resource Requirements" tool or RRT is a tool for Zend Framework which checks the actual installation and helps the developer to see if there are missing extensions or ZF components.
The "Resource Requirements" tool or RRT is a tool for Zend Framework which checks the actual installation and helps the developer to see if there are missing extensions or ZF components.
4. Dependencies on Other Framework Components
5. Theory of Operation
The RRT for Zend Framework is a tool which aids the developer or installer of Zend Framework to see which components work with the actual php settings and extensions.
There are multiple modes in which this tool can be used.
1.) command line
Using this tool on command line a user can detect if the framework or single components of the framework are working in the given php installation.
When there are problems the tool will return them and give a hint to see what is necessary.
2.) web
This tool should also be usable in a web-mode. In this mode it will check the installation and return the problems and display them in a nice visual way.
Optionally RRT can also be used to check if possible security configurations are met and return possible problems. For example is register_globals is turned off.
6. Milestones / Tasks
- Milestone 1: [DONE] Proposal finished
- Milestone 2: Proposal accepted
- Milestone 3: Working implementation
- Milestone 4: Unit tests
- Milestone 5: Documentation
- Milestone 6: Moved to core
7. Class Index
- no classes to use... a single contained tool
8. Use Cases
See if the whole framework works without problems
Returns a list of components and possible problems
See if a single component works without problems
Returns a list of all components like UC1 but with a proper look

This is a great idea, I like it !

Apr 25, 2010

But maybe It will be better to make an official PEAR channel for this purposes?

Apr 25, 2010

I like the PEAR channel idea; however, would it not be wise to lower barrier to entry by making a tool that doesn't require the use of PEAR but do also build a PEAR channel that uses the base tool to build upon?

Jun 01, 2010

Good idea, I had a similar plan (and maybe some code already).

What are you thinking in terms of dependencies and coding style?

My initial plan was to create a single PHP file that will check:

php.ini settings

Installed PHP modules

Installed Apache modules (if running Apache)

mod_rewrite configuration, although I'm not sure if this can be done properly

In my opinion it should not be dependent on Zend Framework, but it should be a self contained, single file utility.

I can imagine this single file being build from multiple source files.

I have not finished my proposal for now.

It is not abaddoned nor have I forgotten about it.

So I would appreciate if my proposal is not changed without a small note to my person.

There are some pre-requisits which I am actually collecting to get this proposal finished.

I have no code for public for now.

The actual result can be seen within the requirements-tables from the manual.

Jul 31, 2010

What are your plans to keep the requirements table up-to-date?

I think there have to be only one file to change if some requirements has been updated.

Can it automatically detected by annotations of component?

Only a small note:

If we make ZF splitting into component packages we also need requirements of component to component.

Jul 31, 2010

As you can see by the reference tables in the manual component dependency is already done by me. It was the initial idea for this component.

I don't think that it's a good idea to read file annotations from components to get the necessary information. As written the RRT will be self contained. This means that it should even work BEFORE ZF is installed to see which changes have to be made until ZF runs without problems. So it must have all informations independently from ZF.

Feb 05, 2011

Archiving this proposal, feel free to recover it when you want to work on it again. For more details see this email.

The Hilton Pattaya hotel in Thailand is an oasis of natural luxury and relaxation that features long pools of calm water stretching out from its entrance. The stunning 302-room property's main lobby and desks on the ground floor have been decorated with a wavy ceiling installation made from natural fabrics that resembles the sea's deep currents. Located in the heart of the city and overlooking the beach and bay, the eco-lux hotel recycles its own water and materials, and it has been designed echo the nearby ocean through its fantastic interior decor.
High on the 17th floor, the same wavy fabrics have been used for the Drift lobby and bar. Textile waves flow through the bar and sitting area, while shiny surfaces reflect the undulating shapes to create an underwater aesthetic that is both magical and unique. The bar's outdoor terrace features round pebble-esque furniture, floating candles, and a tranquil pool space with stunning views of the city and sea that are best appreciated before the sun sets in.

Thursday, January 26, 2012
I like this room from interior designer Katie Ridder. Especially love the orange sofa and the tall windows. A warm and inviting space...not at all pretentious but nicely designed in a fun eclectic style. I'd like to hang out here for a awhile.
Happy Thursday!
P.S. Check out my little style post on leading fashion website The Fashion Spot - go there to find out more on one of my favorite color combinations! Thanks ST and AY!
P.P.S. Am in NYC...took the red eye last night...running off to Cipriani midtown with Associate Operations Manager KS (who loves the color pink). We are heading to the Fashion Group International's Rising Star Award luncheon. As mentioned before, I've been nominated for an award for the COCOCOZY textiles collection. I'm going to attend the luncheon where we find out who won. I don't think I will win as I don't know anyone who belongs to the organization and the other nominees seem quite talented...but am so excited to attend this even with all of these fantastic fashion types. Oh dear...what will I wear? Another one of my COCOCOZY non-dilemma dilemmas!
P.P.P.S. Then it is off to the Javits Center where KS and I will take a look at the bigger new COCOCOZY booth for the New York International Gift Fair!
P.P.P.P.S. Then a bit of rest...then off to the Young Collector's Night at the Antique's Show at the Armory on the Upper East Side. Full day...and all on 5 hours of sleep on the plane. Wish me luck!
P.P.P.P.P.S. So happy to be in NYC...surrounded by friends and family. Right now am at best of friend AM's house this morning -she lives in Soho with her hubby JE and their kids. Been playing with AM's cute kiddies before everyone leaves for the day. Fashion savvy friend A.Ro. might come with us to the luncheon at Cipriani. Did I mention my dear sis DS is in town too...she's here for business but is staying a bit to help out with the gift fair set up? Also, my friends FF and FM are flying in from New Orleans to hang out for a bit in NY with me. I feel very lucky.
P.P.P.P.P.P.S. Hope you have a fantastic day!

Hello Rocky Mountain friends,
I just got a 2010 SXC 50 frame from JensenUSA.
I have some old but mostly new components to build it up.
Here we go, I'm super excited!
First impressions of the frame are;
-the paint and details are amazing! Especially the carbon seat stays.
-it looks a little smaller than I thought an 18 would be, I normally ride a 19 (5-11) but I'm sure it will be fine.
Happiness on a blanket:
Fork is a 2007 Fox Talas RL (100/120/140) with some World Cup decals on it (I'm a poser, I know. Haha)
Ryder loves adjustable travel!
Juicy 3s. Not the best reviewed brakes but I've had them on other bikes and they worked great and you can't beat the price.
Mavic CrossRide Disc and some WTB Weirwolf 2.1 tires. As for the wheels, again not the best ratings here on MTBR but they were in the budget. The Weirwolf's are about the best rolling tire I've had so I had to get them again. (only $12 each on .com)
Truvativ Stylo crankset and BB. Came off my 2005 GT I-Drive 5 and it looks practically new for being 7 years old.
Shimano Deore XT RD, also from the GT. A new XT front der is enroute.
Truvativ Stylo World Cup SS flatbar
ODI Rogue lock on grips
Thomson Elite 70mm stem
Thomson seat post clamp
Sette AMP saddle
Easton Flatboy pedals (this is my second set of these and they are amazing especially with 510 shoes!)
Stuff not yet mentioned:
Thomson Elite seat post
Blackspire Stinger chain guide
Truvativ bash guard
Here is my progress for day 1
I ordered the wrong BB tool so I'm just going to take it in to the LBS rather than wait for the return shipping process.
First thing I noticed in my progress today is the handlebar back sweep is not going to work on a bike that's borderline too small.
I'm going to trade it with my SS 29ers DH bar (Deity Drity30).
Hope you enjoyed the day 1 photo journal, I sure did!

Hey people, I'm back with my new post! As part of our passion for healthy lifestyle, let's touch on a very popular activity that almost everyone (especially women!) are doing! It is yoga! If you've been doing yoga for sometimes, I'm sure you've experienced quite a number of health benefits that come with it. If you're new, then this article is definitely for you!
Whether you're a beginner or advanced learner of Yoga, there are many different health benefits you will receive. Different styles of Yoga have different health benefits ranging from improving stamina, building strength and reducing stress. One definite and obvious benefit will be the improvement in flexibility after a regular practice. In the long run, we see an increase in lung capacity which helps us to breathe better, anti-aging effects on the muscles and joints and more.
So before you go ahead and look for a Singapore yoga instructor for lessons, find out what are the 5 most common health benefits for practicing yoga.
Regular Yoga Practice Improves Stamina
Certain types of yoga practiced will improve stamina and fitness. The fundamental of having good stamina is having endurance. Essentially, endurance is 'the ability to preserve'. Endurance can be applicable on different levels such as physically and mentally. It works directly with the cardiovascular, respiratory, heart, metabolism, stress and fatigue you experience. One of the reasons for fast fatigue is due to the lack of oxygen delivered to the body which reduces the energy produced that is needed for all daily activities.
Yoga is an aerobic exercise that focuses on the use of deep breathing during workout and this in turn, delivers more oxygen to the body. With regular practice, the lung capacity is increased and this improves respiratory system. Naturally, there will be an increase oxygen intake during our daily lives and this improved in physical and mental stamina. Thus, reducing fatigue not only during workouts but also during our daily activities.
Most Obvious Benefit is Flexibility
Improving flexibility is one of the benefits from a regular yoga practice. The muscles in our entire body are connected, an example will be if we have tight hamstrings, we might have lesser flexibility in our spine as well and tight hips also affects the knee joints. A well balanced yoga class awakens and stretches the entire body's muscles.
You may always feel that it seems like a painful and long journey to finally be able to touch your toes one day. If the practice includes regular back bends, it will assist to loosen up the hamstrings as well. Over time, as we practice yoga regularly, it loosens muscles tightness and increases flexibility.
Practicing Many Yoga Poses Help to Achieve Better Posture
We often spend most of our time sitting due to our usual desk bound jobs. This has led to many of us slumping over in our chairs over time. This poor posture that we get in will also lead to many joint and back ache issues. A regular yoga practice strengthens the core and lengthens the spine.
It also relaxes the shoulders and opens the chest. Basic poses like Cobra and Locust help in activating the spine and opening the chest. More intermediate poses like the Revolved Triangle creates such a deep stretch not only in the hamstrings but forces us to twist from the lower spine and opening the chest.
This pose adjusts our spinal alignments and really helps with Kyphosis condition.
It Helps with Strength Training Too
Be surprised with how much yoga strengthens the body. Regular practice lets you gain long and lean muscles. A dynamic flow sequence such as Hatha Flow or Vinyasa Flow builds strength within the body and greatly improves stamina as well. Think sun salutation with lots of chaturanga (low plank), up ward dog and down ward dog. These poses require the arms and core to support the weight of the entire body.
Both dynamic movements of transitioning poses or holding the pose itself build strength and stamina over time. Progressing into intermediate poses such as balancing hand stands, hand stands, head stands and forearm stands is a great challenge that requires strength and flexibility.
Reduce Stress Instantly
Pranayama (breathing) exercises when practiced on a deeper level reduce great amount of stress in our bodies and minds. Taking conscious deep breaths delivers more oxygen to our brains and increases our lung capacity. When the mind concentrates on a single subject, we free the mind from distractions and noises. On a daily basis, we're expected to be multi-tasking on our jobs or even rushing on our day-to-day activities. Pranayama frees the mind and improves our focus. A single session of deep breathing meditation reduces the stress level instantly.
If you're a beginner and do not feel like you've received these benefits, do not be disheartened. Yoga in a journey, live in the moment and enjoy it. It teaches us more about our body and lets us feel the conditions of our body. Appreciate that you may not be able to touch your toes or do a deeper back bend at the moment but you're working on it. Cultivate gratitude that you're taking the effort to improve and facing integrity. In time to come, you will experience the benefits of yoga unknowingly.
Keep practicing.
