In this exercise you're going to make a big leap in difficulty and create an entire small program to manage a database. This database isn't very efficient and doesn't store very much, but it does demonstrate most of what you've learned so far. It also introduces memory allocation more formally and gets you started working with files. We use some file I/O functions, but I won't be explaining them too well so you can try to figure them out first.
As usual, type this whole program in and get it working, then we'll discuss:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <assert.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <string.h>
#define MAX_DATA 512
#define MAX_ROWS 100
struct Address {
int id;
int set;
char name[MAX_DATA];
char email[MAX_DATA];
struct Database {
struct Address rows[MAX_ROWS];
struct Connection {
FILE *file;
struct Database *db;
void die(const char *message)
if(errno) {
} else {
printf("ERROR: %s\n", message);
void Address_print(struct Address *addr)
printf("%d %s %s\n",
addr->id, addr->name, addr->email);
void Database_load(struct Connection *conn)
int rc = fread(conn->db, sizeof(struct Database), 1, conn->file);
if(rc != 1) die("Failed to load database.");
struct Connection *Database_open(const char *filename, char mode)
struct Connection *conn = malloc(sizeof(struct Connection));
if(!conn) die("Memory error");
conn->db = malloc(sizeof(struct Database));
if(!conn->db) die("Memory error");
if(mode == 'c') {
conn->file = fopen(filename, "w");
} else {
conn->file = fopen(filename, "r+");
if(conn->file) {
if(!conn->file) die("Failed to open the file");
return conn;
void Database_close(struct Connection *conn)
if(conn) {
if(conn->file) fclose(conn->file);
if(conn->db) free(conn->db);
void Database_write(struct Connection *conn)
int rc = fwrite(conn->db, sizeof(struct Database), 1, conn->file);
if(rc != 1) die("Failed to write database.");
rc = fflush(conn->file);
if(rc == -1) die("Cannot flush database.");
void Database_create(struct Connection *conn)
int i = 0;
for(i = 0; i < MAX_ROWS; i++) {
// make a prototype to initialize it
struct Address addr = {.id = i, .set = 0};
// then just assign it
conn->db->rows[i] = addr;
void Database_set(struct Connection *conn, int id, const char *name, const char *email)
struct Address *addr = &conn->db->rows[id];
if(addr->set) die("Already set, delete it first");
addr->set = 1;
// WARNING: bug, read the "How To Break It" and fix this
char *res = strncpy(addr->name, name, MAX_DATA);
// demonstrate the strncpy bug
if(!res) die("Name copy failed");
res = strncpy(addr->email, email, MAX_DATA);
if(!res) die("Email copy failed");
void Database_get(struct Connection *conn, int id)
struct Address *addr = &conn->db->rows[id];
if(addr->set) {
} else {
die("ID is not set");
void Database_delete(struct Connection *conn, int id)
struct Address addr = {.id = id, .set = 0};
conn->db->rows[id] = addr;
void Database_list(struct Connection *conn)
int i = 0;
struct Database *db = conn->db;
for(i = 0; i < MAX_ROWS; i++) {
struct Address *cur = &db->rows[i];
if(cur->set) {
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
if(argc < 3) die("USAGE: ex17 <dbfile> <action> [action params]");
char *filename = argv[1];
char action = argv[2][0];
struct Connection *conn = Database_open(filename, action);
int id = 0;
if(argc > 3) id = atoi(argv[3]);
if(id >= MAX_ROWS) die("There's not that many records.");
switch(action) {
case 'c':
case 'g':
if(argc != 4) die("Need an id to get");
Database_get(conn, id);
case 's':
if(argc != 6) die("Need id, name, email to set");
Database_set(conn, id, argv[4], argv[5]);
case 'd':
if(argc != 4) die("Need id to delete");
Database_delete(conn, id);
case 'l':
die("Invalid action, only: c=create, g=get, s=set, d=del, l=list");
return 0;
In this program I am using a set of structures to create a simple database for an address book. In it I'm using some things you've never seen, so you should go through it line-by-line, explain what each line does, and look up any functions you do not recognize. There are few key things I'm doing that you should pay attention to as well:
You should spend as much time as you can testing that it works, and running it with Valgrind to confirm you've got all the memory usage right. Here's a session of me testing it normally and then using Valgrind to check the operations:
$ make ex17
cc -Wall -g ex17.c -o ex17
$ ./ex17 db.dat c
$ ./ex17 db.dat s 1 zed email@example.com
$ ./ex17 db.dat s 2 frank firstname.lastname@example.com
$ ./ex17 db.dat s 3 joe email@example.com
$ ./ex17 db.dat l
1 zed email@example.com
2 frank firstname.lastname@example.com
3 joe email@example.com
$ ./ex17 db.dat d 3
$ ./ex17 db.dat l
1 zed firstname.lastname@example.com
2 frank email@example.com
$ ./ex17 db.dat g 2
2 frank firstname.lastname@example.com
$ valgrind --leak-check=yes ./ex17 db.dat g 2
# cut valgrind output...
The actual output of Valgrind is taken out since you should be able to detect it.
Valgrind will report that you're leaking small blocks of memory, but sometimes it's just over-reporting from OSX's internal APIs. If you see it showing leaks that aren't inside your code then just ignore them.
You kids these days have it great. You play with your Ruby or Python and just make objects and variables without any care for where they live. You don't care if it's on the "stack", and the heap? Fuggedaboutit. You don't even know, and you know what, chances are your language of choice doesn't even put the variables on stack at all. It's all heap, and you don't even know if it is.
C is different because it's using the real CPU's actual machinery to do its work, and that involves a chunk of ram called the stack and another called the heap. What's the difference? It all depends on where you get the storage.
The heap is easier to explain as it's just all the remaining memory in your computer, and you access it with the function malloc to get more. Each time you call malloc, the OS uses internal functions to register that piece of memory to you, and then returns a pointer to it. When you're done with it, you use free to return it to the OS so that it can be used by other programs. Failing to do this will cause your program to "leak" memory, but Valgrind will help you track these leaks down.
The stack is a special region of memory that stores temporary variables each function creates as locals to that function. How it works is each argument to a function is "pushed" onto the stack, and then used inside the function. It is really a stack data structure, so the last thing in is the first thing out. This also happens with all local variables like char action and int id in main. The advantage of using a stack for this is simply that, when the function exits, the C compiler "pops" these variables off the stack to clean up. This is simple and prevents memory leaks if the variable is on the stack.
The easiest way to keep this straight is with this mantra: If you didn't get it from malloc or a function that got it from malloc, then it's on the stack.
There's three primary problems with stacks and heaps to watch for:
This is why in the program I've created a Database_open that allocates memory or dies, and then a Database_close that frees everything. If you create a "create" function, that makes the whole thing or nothing, and then a "destroy" function that cleans up everything safely, then it's easier to keep it all straight.
Finally, when a program exits the OS will clean up all the resources for you, but sometimes not immediately. A common idiom (and one I use in this exercise) is to just abort and let the OS clean up on error.
This program has a lot of places you can break it, so try some of these but also come up with your own:

People were just wild about skating in the 1880s.
STARS OF MADISON SQUARE GARDEN: Six-day skater William Donovan
People were a touch insane in the 1880s and 90s. One of the most popular sports was the six-day bicycle race, a sport so popular, particularly in Madison Square Garden II (debuting there in 1891), that they were referred to as 'madison events' in international circles.
But they were preceded by six-day rollerskating marathons, the first one in New York on March 1885, in the original Madison Square Garden -- an event so strenuous it actually killed the young 19-year-old winner, William Donovan.
Donovan was a newsie from Elmira, NY, who trained for the event with a man who went by the name 'Happy Jack Smith.' The event, a 'go as you please' event involving a velodrome built within the garden, attracted 36 skaters aiming for a $500 prize.
The dangers of this event were apparently well elaborated. " 'It's the first test of endurance that has ever been made on roller skates,' said a sporting man, 'and I believe that over half the men entered will cripple themselves for life.' " [source] Great, where do I sign up?!
I can't help but think this sort of event would attract a certain sort of young, brash derring-do, possibly with lots of time on his hands. From the same article, two spectators were quoted describing a participant:
" 'I shouldn't think his mother would let him come out of the house looking that way,' said a pretty little miss.
" 'Perhaps he's an orphan," said her companion. "He looks like he's seen a lot of trouble.' " [source]
Contestants would frequently collapse in a faint, be taken off the track, revived, then taken back to the course. Spectators actually sat in the arena for the entire six days, in apparently some kind of come-and-go ticket arrangement. There was an ongoing carnival and bicycle demonstrations to keep ticket holders busy when the skating got boring.
It appears athletes were allowed to rest off-track, but obviously the time spent sleeping was taken off their total. Many of the most popular skaters were given nicknames; redheaded Donovan, for instance, was 'Sorrel-top', I assume for the color of red sorrel, not green. The total length of the track multiplied by the 144 hours of non-stop riding meant that young Donovan had ridden 1,092 miles, awarding him the prize money and a fine diamond belt.
A few days later, while staying nearby at the trendy Putnam House, the victor Donovan caught pneumonia. While looking out his window at people streaming to P. T. Barnum's Greatest Show on Earth (holding court at, yes, Madison Square Garden), Donovan collapsed and died within 36 hours -- of acute pericarditis (heart inflammation).
Newspaper investigation of his death reveals that the boy had skated the course with a 'dead bone' (necrosis) on his right leg.
Within days it was revealed that a second skater who participated in the event, Joseph Cohen, had also died afterwards.
Now, why the heck would anybody be interested in roller-skating for six straight days?
Rollerskating was a popular craze in the 1880s, with mass production and sale beginning then, so a six-day roller-skating fest would have been the 1885 equivalent of x-treme sports.
Evaluating the safety of the event was indeed in its infancy, as this excerpt from a medical journal in 1885 illustrates:
"The mind acts "exoneurally," we are told, and the vibrating brain-cells of the enthusiastic roller-skater communicate their rhythmical pulsations to the previously insensitive spectator. Whatever the mechanism, there is certainly at present a morbidly exaggerated passion for, and indulgence in, roller-skating. And the question comes home to the physician, whether it is doing any physical or mental harm."
Too much skating, as Donovan proved, was dangerous. Organizers of the skating marathon booked the Garden for a second event in May 1885, but participants were handpicked only the most experienced and healthy, including a few surviving the last go-round. Shortly afterwards, official skating events were prohibited from being longer than four hours in length.

Stars of MSG: The deadliest roller skating event ever
1 comment:
Roller-skating is truly indulging. Before I read this article, I was actually asking myself if it's possible that anyone has ever tried to skate for three straight days. It seems that they've done more than three days - but resulted to death of some skaters.ReplyDelete
Well, it was 1880's, a time when only a few people cared about physical and mental health. They must've missed the part where people need rest & sleep.
If this can possibly happen again, of course with more safety precautions, I wish majority of the population would participate. It's not that hard to buy roller skates anymore; just go online or to the nearest skate shops -- take some days to learn, and there, go skating! I would gladly promote this sport, specially to the youth.

Thank you for stopping by Carolyn! Still covered in some snow...hmmm... we here are getting unusually hot Santa Ana winds.... not good.. because then the allergies come. My flowers are just barely starting to come up here and there. But I know when I come by to visit you I can imagine myself in the most beautiful of gardens! Thank you for sharing all the lovely flowers!

Hooray for snow melting!!
It is a challenge to find photos in April - buds and birds - close-ups so that the dirty old snowbanks don't show :)
That is, until I get out on the water with the kayak - gorgeous photo ops there! As long as I don't drop the camera :)

Carolyn, I was just listening to the Robins while I was reading your post, the evening chorus. It is almost 6:00pm and the sounds of the birds are becoming more frequent which I find really exciting. I really do feel so sorry for you with all that snow. Let's hope for a very quick melt down for you. Everything is late here too, this Spring.
Hang in there - it will be a busy, but I am sure rewarding summer!

CHRISTMASGlory Enough for Everyone
To maintain the machinery of empire, people must be counted; not to be valued as individuals, but to assess tribute. It is the census. Lists of family members, and decisions about them, must be made. As your life, family, and records are audited, so also is your future decided. What sacrifice will be required for the glory of Rome?
If he has listened to Mary's song (Luke 1:46-55), Joseph, as the state-recognized head of the household, can safely allow himself and his family to be among the counted. He would know that Imperial Rome's time is short, that God brings down the "powerful from their thrones" and "sends the rich away empty." Although in temporary bondage, God's people will receive the promises made to Abraham for the sake of his descendants. If Joseph has listened to Mary (Luke 1:32-33) he knows that this son will sit on David's throne, and cannot be removed. He may not understand how and when these things will come to pass, only that they will. Why not be counted?
Shepherds, however, cannot expect to be counted. While the rest of the world is engaged in the games of empire, they watched their flocks, unnoticed by census-takers. But they were not unnoticed by God. Beyond the view of the watchful eye of Caesar, God was doing a new thing, forging true peace to upset the sham pax of imperial domination, a new kingdom whose only army is that of angels singing, rank upon rank, of God's saving work. It all begins with the unforeseen birth of a child and the wonder of a mother. We, like shepherds, stand in awe at God's gracious surprise. There is glory enough for all.

In a season of firsts, the Irvine Valley men's tennis team has added a couple more.
The Lasers were awarded the top seed in the Southern California Team Playoffs for the first time in program history.
Irvine Valley opens the playoffs at home on Tuesday against No. 8 Grossmont at 2 p.m.
It will not only be Irvine Valley's first ever home playoff match, but also its first postseason appearance.
Other first round matches on Tuesday feature No. 2 College of the Desert hosting No. 7 Riverside, No. 3 Cerritos hosting No. 5 San Diego Mesa and No. 4 Mt. San Jacinto hosting No. 6 Glendale.
If Irvine Valley gets past its first round match it would host the winner of the Mt. San Jacinto and Glendale contest on Tuesday, April 15.
But first Irvine Valley has to get past Grossmont.
The Griffins have a record of 17-8 overall. They were fourth in the Pacific Coast Athletic Conference with a 9-5 mark.
Grossmont was the fourth team out of the conference to make the playoffs. The top three teams from the conference were College of the Desert, Mt. San Jacinto and San Diego Mesa.
Irvine Valley has a record of 14-2 overall and went 10-0 to win the Orange Empire Conference.
The Lasers, led by freshmen Guillermo Ucelay and Simon Guillin and sophomores Steven Le and James Lafond, won the conference for the first time in program history this season.
The team's lone two losses of the year were both to NAIA ranked four-year schools.
Nine of the team's 14 wins were shutouts.
IVC finished the regular season with an 8-1 victory at Orange Coast last Tuesday.

JARC (Jewish Association For Residential Care): The Jewish Hospice & Chaplaincy Network provides all end of life pastoral care to residents of JARC. The needs of these residents with developmental disabilities are often overlooked or misunderstood when facing terminal illness or end-of-life issues of a loved one.
Jewish Family Service (JFS): Jewish Family Service and the Jewish Hospice and Chaplaincy Network have collaborated to create two unique programs to assist in the care of the terminally ill; a volunteer training program and Lifelinks. Lifelinks is a central reference and referral service for health care and social service providers as well as consumers dealing with terminal illness. It is a "Lifeline" linking Jewish patients and families to "what they need, when they need it." In addition to these programs, Jewish Family Service provides office space for Jewish Hospice and Chaplaincy Network, basic technical support, and a broad diversity of social service to patients and families. (See section on LifeLinks Program for additional information).

Gail LexiComments10
this wiki
She is 3,005 eons old, meaning she is older than Ari by 5 eons and older than Cici by 305 years.
Her theme coloring seems to be on the cooler color scale, being shades of blue, purple, and teal/white.
While both Gail and Cici have some similarities, Gail seems to be much more in control and calm then her more perky and colorful sister. While Cici plans to put her mission to work on herself, Gail wants to help the earth girls, much like the other Novi's. She plans to teach and help them realize they can be anything they want to be!
Gail is very modest, mature, and smart. She always thinks clearly about everything but she is known for being "totally transparent" in terms of personality. In which, compared to Cici, she isn't nearly as noticeable. She wants to improve this and learn how to stand out in the crowd.
Much like Cici, she has no specific fashion taste as it often changes. She loves frozen yogurt, due to being able to choose the toppings based on her mood. She loves to play hide and seek with her friends. However, Gail doesn't see magic tricks as interesting and exciting, due to always being transparent/invisible.
Gail Lexi is a Novi Star with a very pale purple-gray face and translucent/see-through skin from the neck down. She has soft blue eyes with pale makeup and equally pale lips, possibly meaning she does not wear any lipstick. She has swirly markings in her eyes. Gail's hair is mostly white and very, very curly. It's about knee length and also has blue and purple coloring mixed in.
Gail's antennae are very curly with multiple, small curled pieces along the top.
Gail wears cute, flirty, and just a bit revealing attire. Which consist of a teal-sea foam tank top styled dress with thin black shoulder straps and segment directly below her chest. Along with a big zipper. At the sides/bottom of the dress are two layers of hot pink ruffles. Below the skirt of her dress are odd black rings circling both legs. She wears black heels with the toe cut out and odd silver-white pieces embedding them.
Steller Skinz
Gail's official artwork for Stellar Skinz keeps her hair, eyes, and colors normal. But she is shown wearing a black and silver pair of shoes, along with a skeletal costume.
Gail doesn't have a pet, much like Nita Light and Cici Thru.
- Stellar Skinz - Comes with doll, glow in the dark stand, white shoes, 2 skinz, a pair of wings, tail, bright pink brush, original outfit, 2 bracelets
Doll Differences
Basic Gail
- Eye shadow is silver-lilac and pale blue, not solid blue like on the art.
- Eyes are very dull milk-blue, the art has dark blue eyes.
- Eye spots are all blue themed on the doll but official Gail has blue and very pale lilac spots.
- Eye marking is much more detailed on the doll.
- Sapphire glitter applied to lashes
- Slight difference in antennae
- Instead of long white curly hair with teal and dark purple markings, Gail was given the same afro pigtails with bangs and loose strands that Cici was given. Her's is half seafoam and half light purple.
- The doll has two bracelets that the official art lacks
- The outfit isn't as shapely/revealing on the doll
Stellar Skinz
- Zombie is much darker then the art version
- The Zombie skinz only has one web segment, while the arts has two.
- Zombie's stripes are much thicker and straight on the doll then the art
- Zombie has a much more shapely frame on the art version
- The art shows Gail wearing a skeleton hair clip, and a giant skeleton themed hair bow. The doll lacks both of these.
- The skeletons bones are not nearly as detailed as the art shows them to be.
- The Skeleton skin has a very dull purple tint, while the art shows a blue tint.
Blog Entries
For convenience, Gail has been given her own blog page: Gail Lexi's Blog Entries
"Greetings Earthlings, my name is Gail Lexi! I'm totally see-through and can change into anything with the help of some Stellar Skinz—without them I'm invisible! Something I don't get is magic tricks—what's the big deal about disappearing? I do it all the time!"
- Gail Lexis' name is coined from "galaxy."
- Gail and Cici's relationship is proved in one of Gail's blog entries.
- While Gail and Cici have a theme like Nita, they are invisible species while Nita is more ghostly.
- The skeleton Stellar Skin resembles a Lalaloopsy fashion pack that is a pair of pajamas with a skeleton and heart on them.
- If the dolls are accurately based then Gail and Cici are either older Novi Stars, or they're just very tall.(If this bothers you just put her head on a Nita Light body you might have to modify the dress and skinz.)

CTIA 2008 - Live Report
Starting with the most interesting one, Neo E1100, which offers a quite unique design. The whole front surface is very glossy with a hidden OLED display at the lower right corner. As it is quite small, it only provides the most basic information. A really cool feature is the blue LED light, which runs through the whole front from top to bottom. The left side features the volume rocket and the camera button. Both are very close to each other and have very small relief, so are somewhat hard to find by touch. The back, in contrast to the shinny front, has a soft feel, which helps for a better grip.
Opening the shell reveals the flush keypad, which still has slightly raised key separators. The keypad offers good tactile feedback.
The 2.2" QVGA display was great, but beyond the main menu, the actual UI of the device was not working. Overall, it seems like a great low-mid tier device with a very eye-catching design!
Kyocera Mako S4000
The phone falls in between the Neo and the low end Adreno. The glossy finish of the Neo is gone, and instead of it the whole front and back surfaces have a soft, rubber like feel. The display is now color with not very great brightness. The side buttons are the same as on the Neo, but especially on the left side, are quite hard to press.
Opening the shell reveals a very small relative to the whole body display, with low 128x160 resolution. The keypad offers OK tactile feedback, but the SEND and END keys are just way too small for our taste.
Kyocera Adreno S2400
The lowest end of the line is the Adreno S2400. The whole device looks and feels like a kid's toy. Just because Kyocera has used again material, which has rubber-like feel, the target market is supposed to be the sport fans (there is no sports related functionality whatsoever).
The front has a small, one line display like on the Mako, while the internal one is still 1.8" but it is not even TFT.

VZW has the LG-VX8700. The LG Shine is a slide version of the 8700 and the Shine got released way AFTER the 8700.

I have this bluetooth headset and absolutely love it. It is extremely lightweight, very comfortable, and not to mention affordable at 79.99. It has noice reduction and it also has stereo bluetooth capability so you can listen to music and no one knows that you are. It fits in your ear in a new evolutionary way. The back peice holds the bluetooth headset in your ear, unlike other kinds that just fall off. It is by far the best headset I've owned (and I've owned a lot of 'em).
9. George (unregistered)
Verizon better start announcing cooler phones like the Glyde, Dare, VX8560, Decoy...etc. So far, the only phone that really matters that they hae announced is the enV2.

This article states the enV2 is not thinner than the original enV when in fact it is .14" thinner or roughly 18% thinner.

Dont use His name in things He himself would not be associated with
Q. What about the third commandment and what does it mean when it says we are not to take His name to nothingness?
A. By His name I assume you are referring to the four Hebrew letters "yod, hey, vav, hey" and symbolized in English by YHVH.
However, God has many names in the Bible, not just one.
In fact, He tells Moses to tell Pharaoh His name is "Ehyeh."
What this means in Hebrew and biblical thought is we are not to give false oaths, false prophecies, use His name lightly or in half-hearted appeals to God and use His name in a curse.
Now, this has little to do with pronouncing His name correctly, it has to do with what His name means and signifies.
"In the name of" in biblical thought relates to the reputation, fame, glory, memorial and religion of whatever name you use.
For instance, if someone speaks "in my name" it should be exactly the way I would put it and according to how I would have done things.
That is what the Lord is trying to say.
Don't use His name in things He himself would not be associated with.
Many today teach things "in His name" that God never said or would say.
That would be a violation of the commandment. But, it has nothing to do with pronouncing His name correctly.
Nobody knows how to say it anyway.
Some say it is pronounced "Yahweh" or "Jehovah" but the four Hebrew letters for YHVH can be pronounced 22 different ways.
God has gone to great detail in telling us what kind of food to eat, how to dress, calendars, what days are holy, loving your neighbor and so on.
If pronouncing His name correctly was as important as some in the Sacred Name movement say it is, He would have gone to great lengths to make sure we knew how to say it.
What it comes down to is the attitude in the heart.
Some say we can't say Lord or God because it has pagan connections.
But, God uses 'God" in talking about Himself and if it's acceptable to God to describe Himself that way, so can I.
We would have to discard most of the English language to comply with what some of these Sacred Name people say we ought to do, but they don't do it themselves.
They use words with pagan origins in their writings and books telling us we shouldn't use names with pagan origins!
I wouldn't worry so much about the phonics of His name, I don't believe He does.
What I would be concerned about is the intent of your heart because that is what He is concerned about. He knows who you are and who you mean when you call on Him, and that's the only thing that counts. Forget about what anybody else says about pronouncing His name right.
They don't know either. Besides, you aren't praying to them anyway. If the Lord has a problem with it, let Him tell you about the pronounciation. God knows who you mean.
Q. What is Mystery Babylon?
A. Mystery Babylon is a term used in Revelation 17 for the antithesis of the woman in Revelation 12. Simply speaking, it is the age old comparison you will see in the Scriptures between the virtuous woman( God's truth) and the harlot(deception).
The book of Proverbs goes into great detail in comparing the two. In Proverbs 7 Solomon warns about staying away from "the harlot" and this is in a literal sense of course, but spiritual harlotry is also meant.
Chapter 9 talks about the virtuous woman and she is personified by "wisdom" and she is the opposite of the harlot. In Proverbs 31.10-31, the virtuous woman is praised. In Hebrew there are 22 verses in this portion (v10-31).
So, each verse starting in v10 starts with the first Hebrew letter "aleph" and then verse 11 starts with "Bet", verse 12 "gimel" and so on through v 31. The meaning is clear, the virtuous woman has God's blessing in total perfection of His Word.
The harlot doesn't, she will pervert the Word of God. In short, the harlot is false religion of any kind and the virtuous woman is the true faith Given by God. The messiah would never marry anyone but a virtuous woman. We live with the "harlot" all around us.
But, the problem is she goes around and presents herself as the virtuous woman in order to seduce those who do not use insight, knowledge, discernment and understanding, and these can only be given by God.
Revelation17 is talking about the apostate religious system in place in the last days, led by the false prophet who will point those seduced by this harlot to follow the false messiah to their own destruction.
Deut 13.1-5 and Deut 18.14-22 not only contrasts the two "women" but show us how to tell the difference between the two. There is much more to this but I hope this helps.

The ADP121 is a quiescent current, low dropout, linear regulator that operates from 2.3 V to 5.5 V and provides up to 150 mA of output current. The low 135 mV dropout voltage at 150 mA load improves efficiency and allows operation over a wide input voltage range. The low 30 μA of quiescent current at full load makes the ADP121 ideal for battery-operated portable equipment.
The ADP121 is available in output voltages ranging from 1.2 V to 3.3 V. The parts are optimized for stable operation with small 1 μF ceramic output capacitors. The ADP121 delivers good transient performance with minimal board area.
Short-circuit protection and thermal overload protection circuits prevent damage in adverse conditions. The ADP121 is available in a tiny 5-lead TSOT and 4-ball 0.4 mm pitch WLCSP pack-ages and utilizes the smallest footprint solution to meet a variety of portable applications.

It took a while for Demi Lovato to open up about the issues that led her into rehab -- and the Disney starlet is impressed that Catherine Zeta-Jones has been so up front about her treatment for bipolar disorder. Lovato, 18, expressed her support for Zeta-Jones on her Twitter feed on Thursday.
"I don't know Catherine Zeta-Jones personally but what she has decided to do it SO brave.. And SO difficult but worth it," Lovato tweeted. "I'm proud of her."
On Wednesday, Zeta-Jones' rep acknowledged that "after dealing with the stress of the past year, Catherine made the decision to check in to a mental-health facility for a brief stay to treat her Bipolar II Disorder." That stay lasted five days, and Zeta-Jones, 41, is now out of the center and reportedly set to begin working on two upcoming films, Playing the Field and Lay the Favorite. She was spotted out and about in Connecticut Thursday, grabbing pizza with hubby Michael Douglas.
For her part, Lovato has been slowly coming clean about her own stay in rehab. In an interview for the May issue of Seventeen magazine, the teen star is described as having a history of depression and cutting herself, as well as eating-disorder behaviors such as starving herself, and bingeing and purging.
"I basically had a nervous breakdown," says Lovato, who has been made a contributing editor of Seventeen so that she can give teens the benefit of her experiences. "I was really bad off. My parents and manager pulled me aside and said, 'You need to get some help.' It was an intervention. I wanted freedom from the inner demons. I wanted to start my life over."
Lovato says she's still coping with finding healthy ways to deal with stress, and that her struggle with eating disorders and depression isn't over.
"There have been times when I definitely have been tempted to get rid of my dinner," she tells the magazine. "But I will deal with it for the rest of my life because it's a life-long disease. I don't think there's going to be a day when I don't think about food or my body, but I'm living with it, and I wish I could tell young girls to find their safe place and stay with it."
The star will soon be sharing her full story in interviews with Good Morning America and 20/20. Interviewer Robin Roberts tweeted this week that Lovato was "incredibly open. Didn't hold back at all, wants her story to help others. It will!" Now that's good news.

Kevin's baking mix
Do many of you still use Kevin's baking mix and is anyone making his yeast breads? It seems like most people here are going gluten free and away from any wheat products. I have tried some of the GF breads (not all, I admit) and just don't like any I have tried. They are all either too heavy or too much fiber. They seem to bother me physically more than wheat products. I haven't made his mix for awhile, but used to like it for cookies, etc. though I never got up the nerve to try the yeast breads. I was was thinking of making his mix again and trying my hand at making yeast bread with it. I just never see any more discussions about it here and was wondering if any of you, especially diabetics, are using it successfully without rises in blood glucose or weight gain.
I made a loaf of bread today. Rye, to be exact. I don't use the mix, I just mix as I go.
Not diabetic, so can't help you there.
Judy, I use his recipe for Pita bread. It makes great buns and I make pizza crust with it............... Ann
I use the recipe in post #28 in this thread.
Thank you both for your responses. drj, thanks for the link to the "experiments" thread. I think I will get a lot of info from there. Of course, I've been reading Kevins threads lately, but I didn't know about this one.
Use it all the time. My son has diabetes so I bake the bread for him and me. The WPI 5000 has since been reformulated so I adjusted the amount in Kevin's mix to reflect that. I have made a few tweaks but it is essentially the same mix.
cselzler, what is the recipe you use to make bread?
Kevin's Flour mix (with my tweaks the final and best)
LC Bread flour mix recipe (large batch)
4 cup carbalose
1 cup wheat protein isolate 5000 (104 gm) *** was 2 cups before update
1/2 cup wheat protein isolate 8000 (64 gm)
3/4 cup almond flour (72 gm)
3/4 cup Hi-Maize resistant corn starch 260
3 Tbs not/Sugar or Thick It Up
½ t. vanilla powder ( I added this)
***product update so now it is 2 times the weight so need ½ as much
Bread Loaf made from Flour mix
3 cups of the above LC Bread flour mix (was 2 ½ c.)
1/2 tsp. salt
1 T. instant yeast (was 2 t.)
1 1/2 cup cool water + 1 or 2 T. (was 1 cup warm water)
2 T olive oil
1 T sugar (was 2 t. honey)
7 drops ezsweetz (I added this)
½ t. vanilla powder (I added this)
Mix and knead for 5 min.
form loaf and let rise just until it reaches the top of the pan.
Bake at 350 degrees for 25 min or until crust is golden brown.

March 14 2011 - Mother Frances Hospital Receives HealthGrades Award
Mother Frances Hospital-Tyler Has Received This Award for Five Consecutive Years / 2007-2011
Contact: Marsha Austin

Patients 46% Less Likely to Experience Patient Safety Incident at Top-Rated Hospitals, Study Finds
- Hospital Acquired Bloodstream Infections Continue to Rank Among Most Prevalent Safety Issues Facing Hospitals -
- HealthGrades Identifies Nation's Top Hospitals for Patient Safety -
DENVER, Colo. (March 9, 2011) – A study released today by HealthGrades found that patients have a 46% lower risk of experiencing a patient safety incident at a top-rated hospital compared to a poorly-rated hospital. The findings are from the annual HealthGrades Patient Safety in American Hospitals study, which analyzed 40 million Medicare patient records, from 2007 to 2009. HealthGrades utilized the patient safety indicators published by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) to identify preventable medical mistakes that occurred during patients' hospitalizations.
Study findings show that, despite encouraging research from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention showing reductions in hospital acquired bloodstream infections in certain patients, progress is inconsistent. Some hospitals have made rapid progress in reducing infection rates, but hospitals continue to show wide variation in their rates. For example, HealthGrades found that patients treated at those hospitals performing in the top 5% in the nation for patient safety were, on average, 30% less likely to contract a hospital acquired bloodstream infection and 39% less likely to suffer from post-surgical sepsis than those treated at poor-performing hospitals. Nearly one in six patients who acquired a bloodstream infection while in the hospital died, the study found.
"HealthGrades commends the efforts of those hospitals that are focused on providing consistent, safe and effective medical care," said Rick May, MD, HealthGrades vice president of clinical quality services and co-author of the study. "But the fact remains that there are huge, life-and-death consequences associated with where a patient chooses to seek hospital care. Until we bridge that gap, HealthGrades urges patients to research the patient safety ratings of hospitals in their community and know what steps they can take to protect themselves from error before being admitted."
HealthGrades used the AHRQ's 13 patient safety indicators - incidents such as foreign objects left in a body following a procedure, excessive bruising or bleeding as a result of surgery, bloodstream infections from catheters, and bed sores – to identify those hospitals performing in the top five percent in the nation, naming them Patient Safety Excellence Award™ recipients. The list of these hospitals, along with clinical quality ratings for all of the nation's nearly 5,000 hospitals, can be found at HealthGrades.com.
HealthGrades Patient Safety in American Hospitals study also found regional variation in the prevalence of medical errors and preventable deaths and complications. Rankings by state and by metropolitan area can be found in the full study. The 10 U.S. cities with the lowest incidence of patient safety incidents are: Minneapolis-St. Paul, MN; Wichita, KS; Cleveland, OH; Wilkes-Barre, PA; Toledo, OH; Boston, MA; Greenville, SC; Honolulu, HI; Charlotte, NC; and Oklahoma City, OK.
Key findings of the HealthGrades Patient Safety in American Hospitals study include:
• Medicare patients treated at hospitals recognized with a HealthGrades Patient Safety Excellence Award had, on average, a 46% lower risk of experiencing a medical error compared to patients treated at bottom-ranked hospitals.
• Patients treated at top-ranking hospitals for patient safety had a 30% lower risk of experiencing a central-line bloodstream infection and a nearly 39% lower risk of post-surgical sepsis, another type of hospital-acquired bloodstream infection.
• Four patient safety indicators (death among surgical inpatients with serious treatable complications, pressure ulcer, post-operative respiratory failure, and post-operative sepsis) accounted for 68.51% of all patient safety events during the three years analyzed.
• The 13 patient safety events studied were associated with $7.3 billion of excess cost, which equates to an additional $181.17 per Medicare patient hospitalization.
• Preventable medical errors are so pervasive and costly that the federal government has proposed linking incentive-based hospital compensation to four of the AHRQ Patient Safety Indicators, starting in 2014. In addition, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services are currently developing a 10-year, $70 billion plan aimed at reducing hospital-acquired infections.
HealthGrades' Hospital Ratings
In this analysis, HealthGrades independently and objectively analyzed approximately 40 million Medicare patient records from fiscal years 2007 through 2009. To be included in the analysis, hospitals must have met minimum thresholds in terms of patient volumes, quality ratings, and the range of services provided. Individuals may compare their local hospitals online at HealthGrades.com. HealthGrades' hospital ratings are independently created; no hospital can opt-in or opt-out of being rated, and no hospital pays to be rated. Patient safety incidence rates are risk adjusted utilizing AHRQ's methodology, which takes into account differing levels of severity of patient illness at different hospitals and allows for hospitals to be compared equally.
About HealthGrades
HealthGrades is America's most trusted, independent source of physician information and hospital quality outcomes. HealthGrades' online properties are the nation's leading destination for physician search and empower more than 200 million consumers annually to make informed healthcare decisions.

We are confirmed for the room at WWF (Bollwerk 35 -almost across from Hauptbahnhof Bern) on June 9 13.00-17.00. I look forward to seeing you all there!
AIN was on my list for today; I'll let you all know regarding the room!
Hi all. Thanks for doodling!
Our next CH chapter meeting is scheduled for Sunday 9 June from 1 to 5PM in Bern. Six people have indicated they are able to attend. Great!
Carole, can you get the place again? Thanks in advance.
Please let me know if there is a specific topic you'd like to see on the agenda.
Looking forward to seeing you soon. Renatus
Hello everyone
There are the last few places left in Sue Walden's applied improv trainer workshop on June 19./20 in Zurich. Anybody interested?
We have quite a good crew so far from Switzerland and Germany and I'd love to have you on board, too.
Dear all,
thank's for the doodle Renatus! I would like to come, but I am too busy, with my work and my family and going to Berlin! I hope to see many of you in Berlin!
Hey all
Yes! Thanks for the doodle Renatus. keeping my fingers crossed for October! Carole
Hi all and thanks Renatus for putting up the doodle. I'll be in Berlin this year and I hope to see lots of you before the conference. Best, Esther
Hi all, Lets meet again!
I've created a doodle for two meetings. One in June and one in October. Previous meetings were hosted in Bern which seems to be the most convenient place for everyone. Please don't hesitate to bring newcomers and other interested people. Quite a few of you will (try to) go to the conference in Berlin in October and it would be great to meet before and after. Maybe we can even come up with a Swiss topic for the conference. Hope to see lots of you soon again. Renatus
