"html" entries
Parsing HTML with Perl
Efficiently manipulate documents on the Web
The need to extract interesting bits of an HTML document comes up often enough that by now we have all seen many ways of doing it wrong and some ways of doing it right for some values of "right".
One might think that one of the most fascinating answers on Stackoverflow has put an end to the desire to parse HTML using regular expressions, but time and again such a desire proves too tempting.
Let's say you want to check all the links on a page to identify stale ones, using regular expressions:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 |
use strict; use warnings; use feature 'say'; my $re = qr/<as+href=["']([^"']+)["']/i; my $html = do { local $/; <DATA> }; # slurp _DATA_ section my @links = ($html =~ m{ $re }gx); say for @links; __DATA__
An Example
   |
In this self-contained example, I put a small document in the __DATA__ section. This example corresponds to a situation where the maintainer of the page commented out a previously broken link, and replaced it with the correct link.
When run, this script produces the output:
Building rich web UIs with knockout.js
Live coding a shopping cart and other rich web UI goodness
At Fluent 2013, O'Reilly's Web Platform, JavaScript and HTML5 conference, Microsoft's Steve Sanderson gave a tight 20 minute introductory tour of Knockout.js, a popular JavaScript UI library built around declarative bindings and the Model-View ViewModel (MVVM) pattern.
In his talk, Rich Web UIs with Knockout.js, Steve quickly summarized the problems Knockout solves and why Knockout is a particularly strong candidate to solve those problems, before working on a shopping cart example to show off how bindings, including custom bindings, work within Knockout.
Some key parts of Todd's talk include:
- A description of the problem Knockout solves [at 00:41]
- What is Knockout and MVVM? [at 01:38]
- 4 unique things about Knockout [at 03:12]
- Live coding a shopping cart [at 06:02]
- Summary [at 20:15]
Anyone with a further interest in Knockout should check out the project's homepage and particularly the live Hello World example and interactive online tutorial which guides you through building a Web UI using the MVVM pattern with Knockout.js in an interactive sandbox-style environment.

Web application development is different (and better)
On both front and back end, the Web challenges conventional wisdom
The Web became the most ubiquitous distributed application system because it didn't have to think of itself as a programming environment. Almost every day I see comments or complaints from programmers (even brilliant programmers) muttering about how many strange and inferior parts they have to deal with, how they'd like to fix a historical accident by ripping out HTML completely and replacing it with Canvas, and how separation of concerns is an inconvenience. Everything should be JavaScript.
(Apologies to Tom Dale, who tweeted a perfect series of counterpoints just as I was writing. He has visions of rebuilding the rendering stack in JavaScript, but those tweets are not unusual opinions.)
The Web is different, and I can see why programmers might have little tolerance for the paths it chose, but this time the programmers are wrong. It's not that the Web is perfect – it certainly has glitches. It's not that success means something is better. Many terrible things have found broad audiences, and there are infinite levels to the Worse is Better conversations. And of course, the Web doesn't solve every programming need. Many problems just don't fit, and that's fine.
So why is the Web better?
HTML and CSS performance
Efficient, reusable markup reduces development work while boosting page load time
[Ed note: This is the third in a series of posts on web design and performance. You can see the first two posts here and here.]
Optimizing your markup can have a substantial impact on your site's page load time. Bloated HTML leads to bloated CSS, and vice-versa. For example, during a semantics and reusability template cleanup, I was able to significantly reduce the file size of site-wide HTML, CSS, and stylesheet images.
I achieved this by simply renaming existing elements to have more semantic meaning and then removed unnecessary elements in the HTML (also known as divitis) to focus on reusability. Later in the same cleanup effort, I was able to cut CSS by 39% by removing unused selectors, combining and condensing styles, and normalizing the colors used across the site.
Please nominate for the web platform awards
Recognizing the people who've built the Web
This March, we'll be announcing the Web Platform Awards at the O'Reilly Fluent Conference. Fluent is all about JavaScript, HTML5, CSS3, and the best practices that make up the Web Platform, and we'd like to recognize the people who've made it the powerful ecosystem it is today.
The description is pretty simple, but I think includes a huge number of potentially great awardees:
The awards recognize individual contributors who have demonstrated exceptional leadership, creativity, and collaboration in the development of JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and the supporting Web ecosystem.
We hope to hear about many ways people have "demonstrated exceptional leadership". It may be standards, it may be coding, it may be explaining, it may be community, or it may well be something I haven't thought of yet. What matters is that you can tell us why you think they should get an award.
Seduced by Markup
The power of a technology now taken for granted
A friend wanted to show me a great new thing in 1993, this crazy HTML browser called Cello. He knew I was working on hypertext and this seemed like just the thing for it! Sadly, my time in HyperCard and an unfortunate encounter with the HyTime specifications meant that I bounced off of it, because markup couldn't possibly work.
I was, of course, very very wrong.
Markup with some brilliantly minimal hypertext options was about to launch the World Wide Web. The toolset was approachable, easy to apply to many kinds of information, and laid the foundation for greater things to come.
Sketching in Code
Flexible dreams for a responsive world
Last week's Artifact Conference focused on the challenges of designing for multiple devices simultaneously. One frequent suggestions on stage and off was rough sketching, on screen or on paper, but it's tricky to get there. The problem is easiest to see for designers on the Web, but it applies to a wide range of digital projects.
The challenge isn't just devices – designing for a particular device with its given constraints isn't (usually) that hard. HTML, CSS, and JavaScript have long had tools for abstracting just far enough away from the device that sites can work even in unexpected places. The challenges come from the multiplicity. I used to spend a lot of time helping designers and clients move from "it looks like this in print" to "it probably looks like this on the Web". That was largely about surrendering control, which was difficult enough, but this is frequently about controlling just enough to create multiple variations with a single code base.
What does a sketch of a page look like when that page morphs itself to fit differently in different containers? What does a sketch of a site look like when that site may present different content (and different types of content) to different users based on their past encounters with the site? What does a sketch of a program look like when it handles many different kinds of input in many different kinds of circumstances?
One answer – the classic answer for those of us walking around with notebooks full of dot grid paper – is multiple sketches. Breakpoints become critical as "it looks like this when…" becomes a mantra.
At the same time, though, I rarely feel comfortable creating site (or code) details on paper when I know the result will be electronic. I spent way too much time explaining how paper and screens are different to saddened designers to want to inflict that pain on my own projects. My notebooks are largely filled with words, with occasional pictures.
Build Reusable Widgets for the Web with Polymer and Dart
Don't wait for browsers to implement Web Components, try them today
Web Components, the family of new web specifications for reusable and encapsulated widgets, are coming to a browser near you. Thanks to Polymer, a new type of library for the web built on top of Web Components, and Dart, a new structured language and libraries for modern web development, you can build custom HTML elements that encapsulate style, structure, and behavior.
I'm personally a fan of Polymer.dart, a Dart port of Polymer. If you want to use JavaScript, you can use the original Polymer library, though some of the details are different. Both Polymer and Polymer.dart are under heavy development, and the engineers behind the projects are looking for feedback.
In this article, I'll show you how to build a simple auto-complete widget as a custom element. As a user types into a field, a list is searched by prefix. The user can keep typing for a more exact match, use up and down to select, or use their mouse.
From "Web Development" to the "Web Platform"
Defining a powerful toolkit
The rise of the phrase "web platform" over the past few years makes me very happy.
For years, I've been looking for a good term that would cover HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and a few related technologies. The terminology has long been tricky, as the mostly-forgotten "webmaster" broke into smaller pieces: "web designer", "web developer", and sometimes "web administrator". (Some web administration faded into general system administration, while other aspects have grown into their own discipline of web operations.)
Walking Trees and Handling Events
The core of web programming, in JavaScript and beyond
This summer, I've seen all kinds of programming approaches as I've bounced between the Web, XSLT, Erlang, and XML, with visits to many other environments. As I look through the cool new possibilities for interfaces, for scaling up and down, and for dealing with data, I keep seeing two basic patterns repeating: walking trees (of data or document structure), and handling events.
Walking trees can be annoying, to put it mildy. The Document Object Model (DOM) is famously a headache for JavaScript (and other) developers. There are obvious opportunities for advanced developers to focus on graphs and other more flexible data structures as well. Trees are not necessarily the most efficient way to store information, especially when their content changes regularly.

Furniture Design
From Danish office furniture company Holmris comes the XTable, designed by KiBiSi. The height-adjustable desk is powered not by a motor, but manually, via elbow grease and a handcrank:
XTable is a piece of office machinery that accommodates multiple working positions and daily reshuffling. XTable uses manual kinetic power instead of electricity for height adjustments—saves energy and keeps users active. All technical features are constructively integrated in the table top. It uses a century old principle known from carjacks, ironing boards and other iconic tools.
This one's fresh off the presses and not yet up on Holmris' website; they launched the XTable just two days ago. While the European and Scandinavian markets will surely be targeted, there's no word as to overseas availability. Hopefully they'll make their way stateside—I'd get one just so I could force an intern to satisfy my every work-height whim.

Technical issues continue to plague us at Erie Looking Productions. LISTen #107 is a lost episode as there will be no recorded audio for this one. The unedited script that has none of the usual handwritten corrections or any ad-libs by the presenter is instead released for consideration. Links to matters referenced are shown as footnotes in the attached PDF file. This peculiar release is made under a Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported license.
While we plan to release LISTen #108 on March 1st, this is dependent upon us chasing down electrical shorts and other complications. Thank you for your patience and cooperation in this difficult time.
Due to circumstances beyond our control it appears that LISTen #107 is delayed until further notice. We are trying to excise gremlins from the system but having a tired crew decreases the value of any attempted efforts. Our target is to get the episode out later Monday after some sleeping hours can be had.
Thank you for your patience in this difficult hour.

Due to the impending Super Bowl match-up on February 7th, it is anticipated that connectivity will be quite impaired for Erie Looking Productions at its rural operations site in extreme northeastern Ohio. Under optimal conditions not tied to major events like the Super Bowl, our cable broadband access has roughly one-third the throughput a conventional cable broadband connection in the United States would possess. We expect that access will be impaired during and immediately after the game. Recognizing such, LISTen #106 will not be released on February 8th as we will most likely repeatedly time-out during upload attempts.
Columns will still be released as deemed appropriate in the intervening time. These will be posted as text posts with Adobe Acrobat files injected into the podcast stream as enclosures so as to not leave podcast listeners without something.
Barring any further disruptions, LISTen #106 is anticipated to be released on or near 0500 UTC on February 15th. For those wanting to catch up on listening after ALA Mid-Winter might have put you behind, LISTen 105 remains available as does the column Defining Value.
As promised in LISTen 105, this is one of the columns being released this week. Click on the "Read More" link to see the web-based view of the column or check your podcatcher for the PDF version. -- Read More
I had never heard of the term "echo chamber" till I read Ned Potter's post as part of Bobbi Newman's thoughts on the phenomena. Well, I had heard such a thing referred to in a more unflattering term, but never applied to an online community. It makes perfect sense in retrospect since the online world is vast and niched enough to produce communities for any interest. It is not a stretch of the imagination to fall into a space where you have surrounded yourself with like minded people with identical or closely similar ideologies. In contemplating this on my own, I have come up with a few conclusions I'd like to share. -- Read More
This week's episode is truncated due to the holiday. A zeitgeist review is presented as well as a news bits miscellany.

This seems to be the pear equivalent of frost rings on the apples. Instead of rings, the pears developed cracks from the stem end. Later, the red skin peeled off starting with the cracks, leaving a brown corky surface.
The pears are alive and growing. When I cut one open, it looks fine on the inside. Question is - will they be edible with that skin? Has anyone seen this kind of damage? It's new to me. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Actually, I've seen that before on my Bartlett -- in the end, those damaged spots become sort of hard, brown cork calloused areas. Most of the pear will be fine, but not too pleasant to bite into, so just cut them out when you eat it. If the entire skin becomes calloused and russetted, you may need to peel before eating. |
That's sure how it seems to be developing. |

I got some bareroot roses and upon recommendation potted them in 5 gallon pots. I placed the pots in the area where they will eventually be planted (it's not ready yet) and they were doing just great.
We had some cold nights and i was worried, but as many of you said they were fine. We have also been having rain for about week and half, it's been really crazy. So they got watered a lot. On the days it didn't rain, i watered them. Well, today it stopped raining and the sun came out, it wasn't very hot, but it was warmer. Many of the potted roses, and actually some that i have in the ground elsewhere are wilting. The new growth looks weak, especially the red leaves. What is causing this? I didn't water them today, but they were wilting since morning, and they got so much rain yesterday, i checked the soil and it was quite wet. I moved the pots around so they wouldn't be standing in the same spot and the water could drain. Could it be the sun? It was cloudy for a while, and we had almost a full day of sun. What should i do? water them more, less? Move them from the sun? Do nothing? Please offer any advice, i really want them to live! Thanks,
Follow-Up Postings:
Roses normally wilt when the sun comes out after several days of cloud cover. Move to part shade until the roots catch up with the tops. |
The other possibility is that the drainage is not as good in those pots as you thought. Kate |
- Posted by berndoodle (My Page) on Mon, Mar 30, 09 at 11:44
Another possibility is that you fertilized them. |
- Posted by ramblinrosez7b JerseyShore (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Mon, Mar 30, 09 at 14:02
I was thinking of the drainage also but you stated that the ones in the ground are wilting too. What kind of potting soil did you use? I remember that happen to me once and I could not figure out what the matter was. I don't know what made me do it but I reached down into the pot and sure enough there was a big air pocket and the water was just sitting on top of the soil in this pocket. I did not pack down the soil good enough, just threw it in the pot and planted the rose....I since learned from that experience. Here is a way you can tell if the wilting is from the sun, Put a cover over one of the roses, I use a small laundry basket, that way there are holes so the rose does not smother, then take it off after a few hours and see if the rose is not wilting, if it is, then there is another problem. Good luck, and let us know how you made out. |
Smell the soil of the ones in pots. Does it reak of the stagnant canals of Bangkok? Then it's a drainage problem. Did you have horrific winds? If so, the bushes may have been rocked by the wind and the new feeder roots broken, regardless of where the bushes are planted. Too much water, too much fertilizer (70degree temps could have released time release fertilizer too soon), too much wind for the evapotranspiration rates of the rose leaves to keep up. |
- Posted by zenobia0000 (My Page) on Mon, Mar 30, 09 at 21:07
We did have a lot of wind, it was actually pretty intense yesterday. They look a little better today, i didn't water them, I will tomorrow. I mixed potting soil with compost and some rosefood, some sort of granules in the soil that i put in the pots. I will smell the pots and check that out, thanks for the tip! |
- Posted by lou_midlothian_tx z8 DFW, Tx (My Page) on Mon, Mar 30, 09 at 21:48
Yeah, it isn't really a good idea to mix in compost for the container. That can really mess up drainage. There's a lot of info in container gardening forum by Al. What i use for mine is 3 parts screened pine bark fines, 1 part peat moss and 1 part expanded shale (type of porous rocks). Drainage is the key for the containers... I do use controlled release fertilizer called Dynamite that I buy from big box stores. It's 9 months release so no big deal. I wouldn't touch osmocote that;s sold at big big stores though because of fast release. It's one of hard lessons I had to learn a couple years ago. Drainage is #1 priority for the containers... |
Not to argue, but by way of educating myself, how can compost affect drainage? When I got my bands from RVR this winter they suggested I plant them in top soil. I obediently went and bought a bag of top soil. It didn't really seem like a good idea to me to use that as a potting mix, but who am I to argue with professionals... I planted them in top soil, it seemed to compact from the watering I did, and seemed to be really wet after watering. However, my bands didn't mind, they have set buds, and there are roots showing out the drainage holes. On the other hand, when my bands from Vintage came the instructions said to put them in a good quality potting mix. Well, I had a bag of commercial potting mix (with fertilizer added, yes), so I put them in that (all 8 of them). Those bands are doing great too. They didn't seem to mind the fertilizer or anything else, they are growing and setting buds. Perhaps, there are few hard and fast rules, but lots of different ways to do things. Masha |
Did you move the pots to part shade, and did they perk up? If so, it was the change of weather and no need to worry about this other stuff. Even long established roses will wilt temporarily with a change in weather. |

Since these were bareroots, did you cover-up the canes above ground with anything, e.g. mulch, dirt? This could be the problem if you didn't cover them. Not only does this protect the canes from the weather conditions, but it also keeps them from wind dehydration. As the canes produces growth, you gradually pull back this covering. I hope this helps. |
Rogue Valley recommends potting in soil so the rose, when transplanted to the garden, doesn't have to negotiate a sharp horizon between the stuff in its rootball and the garden soil. In all-organic potting mix, the fleshy roots develop little or none and the pot fills up with feeder roots. They may be reluctant to reach outside the organic rootball. Most gardeners in Britain and Europe use a potting soil with around 50% real soil even for permanent pot culture. Therefore Al's obsession with super-fast drainage isn't necessarily well founded. However, potting mix works fine for roses too. A lot of things that rose gardeners claim are critical, really aren't critical. Arguments continue because both methods produce good results. |

1 Let him kiss me with the kiss of his mouth: for thy breasts are better than wine, | 1 Solomon's Song of Songs. |
2 Smelling sweet of the best ointments. Thy name is as oil poured out: therefore young maidens have loved thee. | 2 Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth-- for your love is more delightful than wine. |
3 Draw me: we will run after thee to the odour of thy ointments. | 3 Pleasing is the fragrance of your perfumes; your name is like perfume poured out. No wonder the maidens love you! |
4 The king hath brought me into his storerooms: we will be glad and rejoice in thee, remembering thy breasts more than wine: the righteous love thee. | 4 Take me away with you--let us hurry! Let the king bring me into his chambers. We rejoice and delight in you; we will praise your love more than wine. How right they are to adore you! |
5 (1-4) I am black but beautiful, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, as the tents of Cedar, as the curtains of Solomon. | 5 Dark am I, yet lovely, O daughters of Jerusalem, dark like the tents of Kedar, like the tent curtains of Solomon. |
6 (1-5) Do not consider me that I am brown, because the sun hath altered my colour: the sons of my mother have fought against me, they have made me the keeper in the vineyards: my vineyard I have not kept. | 6 Do not stare at me because I am dark, because I am darkened by the sun. My mother's sons were angry with me and made me take care of the vineyards; my own vineyard I have neglected. |
7 (1-6) Shew me, O thou whom my soul loveth, where thou feedest, where thou liest in the midday, lest I begin to wander after the flocks of thy companions. | 7 Tell me, you whom I love, where you graze your flock and where you rest your sheep at midday. Why should I be like a veiled woman beside the flocks of your friends? |
8 (1-7) If thou know not thyself, O fairest among women, go forth, and follow after the steps of the flocks, and feed thy kids beside the tents of the shepherds. | 8 If you do not know, most beautiful of women, follow the tracks of the sheep and graze your young goats by the tents of the shepherds. |
9 (1-8) To my company of horsemen, in Pharao's chariots, have I likened thee, O my love. | 9 I liken you, my darling, to a mare harnessed to one of the chariots of Pharaoh. |
10 (1-9) Thy cheeks are beautiful as the turtledove's, thy neck as jewels. | 10 Your cheeks are beautiful with earrings, your neck with strings of jewels. |
11 (1-10) We will make thee chains of gold, inlaid with silver. | 11 We will make you earrings of gold, studded with silver. |
12 (1-11) While the king was at his repose, my spikenard sent forth the odour thereof. | 12 While the king was at his table, my perfume spread its fragrance. |
13 (1-12) A bundle of myrrh is my beloved to me, he shall abide between my breasts. | 13 My lover is to me a sachet of myrrh resting between my breasts. |
14 (1-13) A cluster of cypress my love is to me, in the vineyards of Engaddi. | 14 My lover is to me a cluster of henna blossoms from the vineyards of En Gedi. |
15 (1-14) Behold thou are fair, O my love, behold thou are fair, thy eyes are as those of doves. | 15 How beautiful you are, my darling! Oh, how beautiful! Your eyes are doves. |
16 (1-15) Behold thou art fair, my beloved, and comely. Our bed is flourishing. | 16 How handsome you are, my lover! Oh, how charming! And our bed is verdant. |
17 (1-16) The beams of our houses are of cedar, our rafters of cypress trees. | 17 The beams of our house are cedars; our rafters are firs. |

1 A song of ascents: Since I was young they have often attacked me -let Isra'el repeat it | 1 They have greatly oppressed me from my youth-- let Israel say-- |
2 since I was young they have often attacked me, but they haven't overcome me. | 2 they have greatly oppressed me from my youth, but they have not gained the victory over me. |
3 The plowmen plowed on my back; wounding me with long furrows. | 3 Plowmen have plowed my back and made their furrows long. |
4 But ADONAI is righteous; he cuts me free from the yoke of the wicked. | 4 But the LORD is righteous; he has cut me free from the cords of the wicked. |
5 Let all who hate Tziyon be thrown back in confusion. | 5 May all who hate Zion be turned back in shame. |
6 Let them be like grass on the roof, which dries out before it grows up | 6 May they be like grass on the roof, which withers before it can grow; |
7 and never fills the reaper's hands or the arms of the one who binds sheaves, | 7 with it the reaper cannot fill his hands, nor the one who gathers fill his arms. |
8 so that no passer-by says, "ADONAI's blessing on you! We bless you in the name of ADONAI!" | 8 May those who pass by not say, "The blessing of the LORD be upon you; we bless you in the name of the LORD." |

Time Correction
Monster's way of compensating for something called "Velocity Propagation" or better known as the skin effect. An analog audio signal passing through a copper cable succumbs to this law of physics in which bass frequencies tend to gravitate towards the center of the cable; higher frequencies are forced to the outer portion of the cable. The higher mass bass frequencies create a magnetic field in the center of the cable while traveling through the conductor, which impedes those lower frequencies. This impedance forces those lower frequencies to arrive at their destination (the speaker or amp) delayed, which causes a mild distortion in the waveform. Monster utilizes multiple gauge windings to help compensate for this distortion. Large, solid-core copper strands in the center for bass frequencies (containing higher mass) and smaller gauges wrapped around the solid core conductor to delay the mid's and high's ensuring that the entire bandwidth of frequencies arrive in uniform.

This course teaches programming in the Java language -- i.e. the Java Standard Edition platform. It focuses on procedural and structured coding skills first, and then offers meticulous, in-depth coverage of object-oriented concepts and how to apply them to Java software design and development. The latter part of the course moves from these basic skills into key parts of the Java SE Core API, including collections, logging, streams, and object serialization. A final chapter introduces automated unit-testing practices using JUnit.
This revision of the course targets the 6.0 version of the Java language and Core API; but it is equally applicable to Java 5 and groups looking for Java training who know they'll be using Java 5 are encouraged to use this course.
Learning Objectives: * Chiefly, learn to program effectively in the Java language. * Understand the Java software architecture, and the design decisions which make Java software portable, efficient, secure and robust. * Learn how to configure a simple Java development environment. * Know the grammar, data types and flow control constructs of the Java language for simple procedural programming. * Understand Java as a purely object-oriented language, and implement software as systems of classes. * Implement and use inheritance and polymorphism, including interfaces and abstract classes. * Design appropriate exception handling into Java methods, and use the logging API appropriately. * Understand the structure of streams in Java, and learn how to use streams to manage file I/O. * Learn how to use Java Serialization to internalize and externalize potentially complex graphs of objects. * Build unit tests for Java classes using JUnit.
This course is intended for programmers with experience in languages other than Java, but who may or may not have any previous Java experience.
No prior Java experience is required, but students must be experienced programmers in another third-generation (high-level) language.

Story pick: Coughing up copy, one hairball at a time
"Something is better than nothing," a friend and colleague recently said when describing how he begins to write. Apparently, unlike me, he has no fear of what will come out, no apprehension that the first draft will not resemble prose as much as vandalism that desecrates the blank space with incoherent ramblings.
He gets on with it -- building momentum one word at a time until there's a sentence and then a paragraph and soon something more. Joel Achenbach, whose writing has always appeared to me as easy as breathing, admits in his blog post that he in fact gasps and pants and wheezes his way through his copy, coughing up large, paragraph-sized hairballs every once in a while like the rest of us.
But he too believes that something is better than nothing, and brings in the rewriter, "where the art turns into a craft." Then comes the fact-checker, the grammarian, and then, at the end, comes surrender, because it's never done.

(NBC News) Prince Harry continued his U.S. visit Tuesday morning along the Jersey shore, where he got a first hand look at the devastation that remains seven months after Super Storm Sandy.
Thousands along the New Jersey coast still can't come home.
"It's very difficult because you are staying in someone else's house. Your whole life is here. It's very, very scattered, I am hoping to get back in here toward the end of the summer," says Mantoloking resident Carol Leone.
This summer along the boardwalk in Seaside Heights will be a different and difficult season.
"You come here to come to the boardwalk. The ice cream, the family, the atmosphere, the rides," says Jaclyn Hoogmoed. "It's great that they are getting it back together, but it's sad still now thinking of what it was, what that storm did."
Harry and his tour guide, Governor Chris Christie, met with first responders and stopped in on some of the businesses that have reopened.
The prince will attend a private fund raiser tonight in New York and then travel to Connecticut Wednesday, where he will close-out his American visit by playing in a charity polo match.

ENVER (AP) - The Chicago Blackhawks' record for the best start in NHL history is over at 24 games after a 6-2 loss to the Colorado Avalanche on Friday night.
Playing their third game in four nights, the Blackhawks finally were beaten in regulation after going 21-0-3. They went through the first half of the lockout-shortened schedule earning a point in every game.
Their string of 30 games without a regulation loss dating back to last season also was snapped.
Matt Duchene had a goal and three assists for Colorado, which lost at Chicago on Wednesday night.

"Searched long and hard for a tip on how to cook a lasagna that I made and froze. Thank you for your detailed instructions. I told my husband that you were always very good with necessary details. Thanks for always posting good quality recipes and tips."
"Wonderful! So easy and forgiving. I pounded out the chicken, not well, and used the sauce I made for meatballs. I did not have mozzerella so I used a Mexican blend cheese I had in the refrigerator and it was still so good! I will make it again and again. DH LOVED IT!"
"I went to make this and only had russett potatoes. I remembered having it this way as a kid. It worked perfectly and you about have to try to mess it up. Timeless recipe, thanks for sharing."
"I made this exactly to specifications with the exception of having two pieces of pork. The crowd was overwhelmed by the aroma, taste and flavor. It cooked perfectly moist. I will definately make this again."
"Yummy! The sugar on the rim of the glass finishes this drink beautifully. I found that by using just a splash of triple sec it was even better since triple sec is so strong, but that is a personal preference. Thanks for posting, we will definately enjoy these again."
"Excellent! I used it to dip fried zucchini. This has just the right amount of heat and have a very nice balance of ingredients. Beautiful recipe, and easy too. Took about 5 minutes to make and even after only chilling for 45 minutes was excellent."
"This was excellent and fairly simple to prepare with ingredients generally kept in the house. Only thing I did differently was use red pepper instead of curry (didn't have any). Served with flavored chicken & broccoli rice. DH said the sauce from the chicken made what we consider to be good rice phenominal. Thanks for the great recipe. Will m..."

Web Letter
If the Democrats ever wanted to be bipartisan on healthcare, they hid it very, very well! There were a dozen significnt Republican ideas, such as allowing employers to form federations for purchasing insurance across state lines. The Dems killed a chance to increase competition for the benefit of workers.
Proper tort reform would have drained billions in waste from "defensive medicine." There are quite a few more. But the Democrats' idea of bipartisan was for Republicans to roll over and play dead, when everyone could have avoided this mess by meeting partway.

Energy Management
award-winning Energy Hawks
An innovative approach to saving energy, reducing utilities costs, and improving occupant comfort in 60 buildings across the University of Iowa campus
Winner of APPA's 2010 Effective & Innovative Practices Award
Award Materials
What's an Energy Hawk?
A quick-hit, high impact team of specialists from various Facilities Management units including maintenance services, building commissioning, controls engineering and energy management. Drawing from a rotating group of energy engineers, building controls technicians, maintenance personnel and operations engineers, the group members work in synergy to evaluate and resolve energy issues in buildings quickly and efficiently.
Saving energy, reducing utilities costs and improving occupant comfort are the chief goals of the Energy Hawks.
The Energy Hawks process is a part of the UI's comprehensive energy conservation plan to eliminate energy waste.
Innovative Strategies
The Energy Hawks take a holistic, cross-organizational and cross-functional approach. The process goes beyond routine operational fixes to a comprehensive evaluation of the whole system revealing solutions for better systems management.
Building Occupants
Tina Hass, Assistant to the Dean of the College of Education, says, "The experience with the Energy Hawks has been seamless and painless. They came in and got to work with no disruption to the building occupants. Faculty and staff have commented on how much more comfortable their offices are, space heaters are gone, and we have noticed a difference in energy efficiency and comfort levels throughout the building."
Jan Waterhouse, Assistant Dean for Operations and Finance, UI College of Nursing, stated, "The team was in the Nursing Building for about two weeks. They provided a complete list of action items identified during the investigative phase, explained what they found, and the steps that would be taken to address the issues. The repairs included replacing our outside air dampers and a large number of old, faulty thermostats in individual offices, which has really improved our temperature control and air flow throughout the building."

Leave it to the heated imaginations of exhibitors to cook up more variations on in-theatre dining and drinking, such as Cobb Theatres' CineBistro, Village Roadshow's U.S.-flavored recipe for Gold Class entertainment, and two double-whammy burgers for Austin, Texas-based Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas, coming up later in 2009 and early 2010.
On Oct. 31, 2008, AMC Entertainment unwrapped the Halloween candies and total renovation of an entire wing at Studio 30 in Olathe, Kansas. In creating the new Fork & Screen flagship site, AMC executed no less than three concepts in one place and has graciously agreed to share some first-hand findings with the industry. Before getting a taste of the details, please note that the information in this article is based on operational and conceptual prototypes—regardless of how advanced and well-thought-out they already appear.
AMC's corporate communications manager Andy DiOrio says, in general, the new venture "continues with our mission to provide our guests with the best possible out-of-home entertainment experience possible." Olathe, in particular, features all three of the registered and/or trademarked concept names and in-theatre Seat-Side Service under the equally protected Fork & Screen (F&S) brand: Fork & Screen, "a casual in-theatre dining and entertainment experience" (reserved for guests 18-years-old and over and minors accompanied by a parent or guardian); Cinema Suites, "a premium, upscale in-theatre dining and entertainment option" for patrons 21 and older only; and MacGuffins, "a warm, relaxing and inviting bar" and "spacious lounge with soft, comfortable seating" (open to anyone with a movie ticket).
"In-theatre dining has been a part of AMC's expanded or non-traditional business at select AMC theatres across the country for years," DiOrio explains. "AMC has a long history of industry innovation and we continued to build upon that." A case in point is Fork & Screen Buckhead, which under the previous name of Backlot 6 had already "been offering a dining component for more than 12 years," DiOrio notes. With the re-opening on July 11 in suburban Atlanta, Georgia, "we wanted to introduce our Fork & Screen test concept to our guests at this popular theatre to enhance their in-theatre dining experience. The theatre is in a great location, in a key market and has loyal guests. We also believe that the remodel will also attract new guests."
Equally well-placed, near the company headquarters in Kansas City, Missouri, Studio 30 in Olathe "is one of our more popular theatres" in the marketplace. Having built the venue with true megaplex dimensions back in 1997, DiOrio admits, "we had the space to transform an entire wing of the theatre," instead of needing "to 'build on' to accommodate the renovation." With a closing on July 14, he rightfully notes how "efficient the construction went" there too. Buckhead had just been overhauled in a mere 14 weeks, coming back with around the same guest capacities as before: 460 for Fork & Screen and 46 seated of 100 people total at MacGuffins. "AMC's design, construction and facilities department led the transformation of both theatres," DiOrio attests. "General contractors were hired to assist with the actual construction and worked in three shifts throughout the day."
After pointing out "an illuminated bar from the opposite wing of the theatre," he continues our virtual tour of Olathe. "Guests enter down an initial hallway" before they reach MacGuffins, which also "serves as a general lobby/bar area." With room at the wraparound bar counter and in the lounge for 150 and a total capacity of 250 people, MacGuffins was built in place of two former auditoriums. "The bar stands in the same general space as the former concession stand, with a full-size kitchen behind it. There is no regular concession stand. Guests may order their traditional concession favorites from their server in the auditoriums."
Although "guests will be encouraged to arrive early to place their orders so that when the entertainment experience starts, they can just relax, eat, drink and enjoy," DiOrio advises there is service during the movie as well. AMC has wait staff "in the auditoriums that proactively serve our guests upon their arrival." And call buttons at seats too (manufactured by Embedded Processor Designs), "should they need additional service during their entertainment experience." From extended risers and service aisles (every other row of seats was taken out in F&S rooms) and added partitions (Cinema Suites), "our service is designed to be seamless, so that you only notice us if you need something."
At Buckhead, "we have chairs with high backs and a deep seat cushion, positioned on platforms and with rollers for ideal viewing with table-top dining." At Studio 30, DiOrio continues, "our Fork & Screen auditoriums feature soft, comfortable seating and table-top dining. The Cinema Suites there offer "relaxing in plush, reclining seats with eight-foot [2.4 m.] row spacing and swivel tables." Before the renovation, those theatres, splitting into separate hallways with five on one side and six on the other, had some 1,783 seats. After the remodel, the eight F&S and three Cinema Suite auditoriums have 740 seats, featuring 32 each in the Suites and 54 in the smallest Fork & Screens.
One key point DiOrio makes sure to mention is that "although some of the auditoriums are smaller in occupancy size, the screens in each auditorium are double the size of what they would normally be." For example, "our largest Fork & Screen auditorium is 122 seats with a screen built for an auditorium of 244 seats. This way, our guests can have an intimate experience in a big-screen viewing environment."
To further that experience, "Buckhead and Studio 30 received new, larger screens, new surround sound, and updated projectors," DiOrio adds. "Those theatres will be fitted with digital projection when their respective markets are converted to digital through our partnership with Digital Cinema Implementation Partners."

Not uncommon at all. Guns are an even more usual example. When there is an anti/pro gun law up for vote, the "mainstream media" will typically boost stories about bad things done with guns to the point where it becomes obvious to anybody that they are trying to support a political agenda. Even if the stories are truthful, they can use their control of information in a very biased way by choosing what to report. When KY was voting on stand-your-ground/castle doctrine law a few years ago, they literally went so far that stories about people accidentally shooting themselves in the foot were front-page news in our biggest papers.
You can expect to see a variety of imaginary and manufactured "hate crimes" and discrimination stories reported, as well as many real ones getting more press than they would have at other times.
This is the internet - you will never learn to shoot here.

The Order of the Amaranth has mobilized the efforts of its membership to prevent and cure diabetes and to help improve the lives of all people affected by diabetes. Thanks to the dedicated support of our members worldwide we have raised over $7.5 million in the fight against diabetes.
Funds raised by the Order of the Amaranth support diabetes research through the Amaranth Diabetes Foundation. The American Diabetes Association reviews and selects the research scientists to be funded. Through this peer review system, contributors are assured that their gifts support the most important diabetes research and that the research results are shared throughout the scientific community.

History of Order of the Amaranth
Queen Christina was just six years old when she became ruler of Sweden some three hundred years ago. During her reign as Queen, she created the Order of the Amarantha for the ladies and knights of her royal court. Queen Christina herself played the character, Lady Amarantha, who was portrayed as being a beautiful, virtuous and talented Lady of the Court. The name of the Order was possibly chosen from the beautiful never-fading red Amaranthus flowers growing in profusion in Spain and Portugal. The Order was perpetuated and presently exists in the Royal Court of Sweden. Originally, the Royal and Social Order of the Amarantha had no connection with Masonry as it does today. Learn More.

Hi there! During the last web-apps meeting we decided that we would like to further discuss the upstream requirements a package needs to fulfill in order to be added to the portage tree by the web-apps team. The current proposition is specified here: http://svn.gnqs.org/projects/gentoo-webapps-overlay/wiki/UpstreamRequirements In my discussion with Stuart this morning I did realize that there are not too many packages available that would actually meet these criteria. So far we probably have around five in the portage tree. The main blocker are the security requirements since many projects do not provide special security contacts or mailing lists devoted security. For some projects this probably implies that they actually don't care too much about security. It is clear that it is not appealing for the web-apps herd to care for a high number of unsafe packages in the tree especially since web-applications by their very nature should be much more secure than many applications only used locally. A high number of security bugs or a slow response to these will not shine the best light on our distro. So reliable security information from upstream would help the web-apps team to react in a prompt and timely fashion when a security issues arises. On the other hand we would probably be forced to reduce the tree to a small number of web-apps if we enforce the requirements very stringently which might not be very appealing to our users. I also had the impression that one of the packages that has been a mojor problem last year (phpBB) actually nearly fulfills the current requirement proposals (at least to a greater extend than many of the smaller packages) but nonetheless has caused quite an amount of grief. Having bugs tracker, announcement lists and security mails might not always cover up for direct experience with the project itself. So I would suggest that we enforce the current proposal in the all cases where we do not have a developer in our herd actively using the package. I think that any dev's of our herd that actively uses a package is probably a better source of information about the security of the package than the mailing lists of the project. At least as long as I assume that we care a lot more about the security of our servers than the average user. But I believe that's a safe bet. If there is no dev with an active interest in the package all we have are the information from upstream. In this case I do believe the requirements make absolute sense. My .2 cents :) Cheers Gunnar -- Gunnar Wrobel Gentoo Developer __________________C_o_n_t_a_c_t__________________ Mail: email@example.com WWW: http://www.gunnarwrobel.de IRC: #gentoo-web at freenode.org _________________________________________________

Category Archives: Player of the Week
Player of the Week: Jan 9 – Jan 16
The New Jersey Devils finished up a solid road trip with 2 wins and 1 loss this week. One of the big highlights was the bounce back win in Edmonton. Let's see the players that helped make this happen. Zach Parise had the winning goal in OT in Edmonton and also had 2 assists in Calgary. Patrik Elias continues to have a great season posting 2g and 1a and the game winner against the Jets on Saturday night. Finally, Ilya Kovalchuk continues to produce with 2g, 2a, 1 goal that was the game-tying shorthanded goal in Edmonton.
Player of the Week: Jan 2 – Jan 8
The fans have voted and Kovalchuk is the player of the week for Jan 2 – Jan 8. The Devils wound up 2-1-1 this week. The ended the week on a high note beating Pittsburgh; where Ilya notched 1 of his 2 game winning goals. Ilya totaled 3 goals and 2 assists. This seems to be the starting point of Kovalchuck's hot streak. Congratulations to Ilya Kovalchuk getting this week's player of the week.
Player of the Week Nominees: Jan 2 – Jan 8
The New Year did not start off well for the Devils, with an overtime loss to the Ottawa Senators on January 2nd and then a one-sided affair two days later to the defending Stanley Cup Champion Boston Bruins. However, things turned around for New Jersey over the weekend, with back to back commanding wins over the South East Division Leading Florida Panthers Friday night at home, and the always tough Atlantic Division rival Penguins the next night in Pittsburgh.
Here are our nominees for the Player of the Week for January 2nd-January 8th. First, we have Ilya Kovalchuk, who tallied 3 goals and 1 assist, with 2 of the 3 being game winners. Next is Adam Henrique, who also had 2 goals, (one being short-handed), while also notching 2 assists. Finally, we have David Clarkson, who had 2 goals and is now the team's leading goal scorer, with 15.
Let us know who you think deserves the Player of the Week and if you disagree, choose other and tell us who you think should be the winner!
Player of the Week Winner: Dec 26th – Jan 1st
Although he has been having a tough season thus far, Martin Brodeur was clearly the Player of the Week for Dec. 26th - January 1st. The future Hall of Famer posted back to back wins against Buffalo and Pittsburgh, both by the score of 3-1, posting a .962 SV% during that span. This extends his career record as the all-time winningest goalie to 636 wins.
Congratulations Marty!
Stay tuned for the Player of the Week poll for January 2nd – January 8th.
Player of the Week Winner: Dec 12 – Dec 18
The team surged during this time creating many opportunities for a long list of players to choose from. But after all was said and done how could we choose any one other than Patrik Elias. He had 4 goals this week, including the one against Montreal to take over as the Devils all-time goal scorer, passing John Maclean with 348 career goals. Elias was the Devil's sole representative last year in the All-Star game and he comes to mind again this year. Elias is currently leading the New Jersey Devils with 30 points, (13g, 17a). Congratulations to Patrik Elias for his record and for being voted Player of the Week.
Player of the Week: Dec 12 – Dec 18
This past week was filled with great moments. Friday, the New Jersey Devils retired number 27 and then the team went on to win their 3rd straight game going 6-3 against Dallas. The team scored 18 goals this week beating Tampa, Florida, Dallas and Montreal. With that many goals scored we can choose a bunch of players for this weeks Player of the Week. However, we pulled what we thought were the three we should highlight.
Our captain, coming off POTW 12/4-12/11, had another great week scoring 3 goals and had 6 assists. Another great moment for the organization was Patrik Elias's goals in Montreal where he broke the Devils All-Time Goal Scoring Record. This week he had 4 goals and 2 assists. With all the offense we can easily forget about our defensemen. This week we highlight Bryce Salvador because he had over 20 minutes of ice time in almost every game this week. He also made a glove save against Dallas that changed the game. He finished the week with 2 assists and a plus 8. As always, let us know if we left someone out by clicking OTHER.

Assange to host Russian talk show
January 25th, 2012, 21:36
Well, the story has come full circle
. An unsuccessful (due to a startling lack of interest) revolutionary and an outspoken critic of USA politics was finally hired by a Russian TV channel designed to spread shameless Soviet-style propaganda into the Western world. Visiting the "Russia Today" website I saw a curious selection of stories: "Hurt Iran, and dont stop hurting Russia", "English Premier League: No country for old Russians?", and "Im ready to die for my ideals - Medvedev". Indeed, any channel that exists to voice Medvedev's passion for committing self-sacrifice in the total absence of any sort of danger to his office let alone his life, would certainly see a media attention whore like Assange among the ranks of its employees. Russia Today: good old Soviet propaganda, now with Western allure!

Football: I remember a very miserable afternoon - a rainy Saturday - spent in a pub that smelled of cauliflower and dog, staring with great concentration at a TV up on the wall. I didn't really dare look away in case I looked like I was bored and I couldn't have given two bronze f***s about what was happening...
In the aftermath of the Second World War Tom had to return to his family after spending the duration in Polly's tiny rural village. Circumstances and parents didn't allow the young couple to meet for a year. It was their daily love letters on cheap lined paper torn from exercise books that kept their love alive.
It's ludicrous that otherwise sane, rational people can invest so much emotional and financial capital in a day that they know is designed to fleece the consumer. More ludicrous still that we persist, despite the fact that everyone - single, attached, or 'it's complicated' - has a terrible time on Valentine's Day.
Are you a 'romantic paranoiac'? Defined in Alain De Botton's 2006 book Essays in Love, as a tendency to misread sexual interest in the body language and conversation of others. Men, much more than women, see sexual intent in the opposite gender's friendly gestures. Working out who really fancies us may be down to evolution and psychology.
You have to spot his habitual patterns of behaviour, dismantle his excuses and telegraphed responses. I'm not telling you to turn into a paranoid investigator. However, understanding your BET gives you greater insight and self-awareness. It's incredibly easy to sleep next to a 'Chameleon', mistaking him for a 'Family Man'.
It's a question as old as time: do you eat out for Valentine's Day or brave the kitchen yourself in a foolhardy attempt to impress your partner? On the one hand, if you dine out, you won't burn your kitchen down, desperately scraping ashen steak chops off the oven walls as your love weeps into her napkin.
Feminists would take the stance that this is somehow to do with the male appetite for a younger model. Women are left alone fending for themselves after a marriage breakdown and fated to an existence of meals for one and loneliness whilst their ex partner enjoys the fruits of youth. The truth, however, is often less interesting than spin.
What happens when the wick of that romance candle burns out and 3 months of you trying to conceive had long passed 2 years ago? By this point you are probably seeking out treatments. Instead of having a date night you are planning your life around your monthly cycle and your date night funds are all but gone from the costs of medical bills from clinics and pharmacies rolling in.
I know many people love this day of schmaltz where hearts are de rigueur but I am not a fan. Irrespective of my relationship status I have never liked Valentine's Day. Don't get me wrong I am a die hard romantic. In fact I am known for my excessive sentimentality which at times has proved to be my Achilles' heel.
Every woman is different. Personally, I can't stand flowers simply because I always kill them. I'm just not a flower loving gal. I'd rather be wined and dined with a hearty red and a cheese plate the size of my head. Brie is my love language. When you're in a relationship with a woman, you should know things like this about her.

I have a 1 gallon Picea engelmannii 'Blue Magoo' that I planted late April in a holding bed. Most these little guys will get moved over the next 1-3 years.
I have a spot for this plant now. Should I move it now (or even late Sept) since its fresh in the ground or wait until next Spring? I know I can go eitherway just figured I ask in case folks think one route may get it off to a faster start. Thanks! |

i would move it when the leaves of the deciduous trees start turning color.. which i take to mean.. all trees.. of which conifers are.. are dormant above ... why move it when the needles are theoretically still active... you are just going to stress them ... which would show up as winter burn.. it will continue to re-establish its roots up to ground freeze ... and and then will have all early next spring to work on those roots.. until the buds start extending.. or do it in april as soon as the ground is thawed ... again.. while it is completely dormant ... this is for z5 and colder ... as we have an either or transplant season.. though i tend to like fall.. since it gives us two cool root-growing seasons before the onslaught of next summers heat ... someone recently suggested to me.. that perhaps fall is not the best time to move them on yellow tissue plants.. as winter dessication will burn that foliage .. if stressed by the fall move ... lol .. i suggested it dont matter as they all seem to burn for a few years until fully established ... all that said.. BB or potted.. and how much root surgery are you going to do???? ken |
Not much I already laid into it this spring. Should, for the most part, be a simple transplant. I'm thinking fall might be better as well for the reason you mentioned that way it might take off next spring vs. limp along in spring. |
