T-Mobile is the most interesting carrier in the United States. Since John Legere came aboard as CEO in September 2012, the company has transformed from a staid, conflicted brand trying too hard to be "hip" to something legitimately compelling. T-Mobile's "Uncarrier" push has seen the company nab the iPhone, wipe out international roaming charges, offer earlier device upgrades, eliminate early termination fees, and even pay the termination fees of those switching to its network. Combined with Legere's unconventional antics and a bold new approach to marketing its services, these changes ...

Very sad news for all of you who purchased the budget-minded Nokia Lumia 810 with the promise that T-Mobile would unlock the Band 4 LTE that's hidden inside the chassis. As it turns out, even though the company made some sort of promise that all the devices with the hardware capabilities would get updated in order to use their new 4G LTE network, well, it seems that either T-Mobile is seeing this as another business opportunity to sell phones, or Nokia is. In a very short statement today, T-Mobile has made their stand official, and it doesn't seem they'll go back on it: Statement from ...

Twice the space and an open road to future expansion
Installation of the satellite dish
Photo by Scott McPherson
There is one corner of the sixth floor space that was left unfinished. This area of about 2,000 square feet is part of the plan to accommodate future needs. Its exact purpose has yet to be planned, but possibilities include new media, alternative programming streams, partnership with TV stations, or possibly subletting it to another tenant. The facility was built to be future-ready. This space allows for that.
Although the timeline for the construction project was to be on the air from the new facility by Dec. 31, 2008, in an almost unheard of turn of events, NHPR originated its first broadcast from the facility at 2 p.m. on Dec. 15. NHPR credits the efforts of Technet Systems Group, the system integrator, for staying ahead of schedule. Once the on-air operation was in place, the office and administration moved in on Dec. 19. These four days allowed the network to address any on-air problems before the office staff moved in.
And while the project progressed like clockwork, the final days were not without some frustration. The move on Dec. 15 was three days after a major ice storm passed through the area. Several of the transmitter sites were still on emergency power. Still, the on-air transfer went well. But even on Dec. 19 as the staff moved in, a snow storm passed through.
One added benefit to the new facility is that it has inspired the air talent to improve their games. The new facility is a modern technology showcase. Some members of the air staff have commented that they feel they have to live up to the look and feel of the new space, and this is reflected in their on-air performances.
NHPR planned a campaign to raise $6.5 million, which was met in March 2009.
Thanks to Scott McPherson, assistant general manager, and Michael Saffell, director of engineering, at NHPR for their assistance in preparing this article.

Crude oil prices dropped by more than $1 a barrel on Wednesday ahead of the latest US weekly inventories data while base metals moved lower and gold dipped as a recovery in the dollar and weakness in Asian stock markets weighed on sentiment towards commodities.
Nymex September West Texas Intermediate fell $1.65 to $65.58 a barrel, while ICE September Brent retreated $1.24 to $68.64 a barrel.
US inventories data due out later in the session was expected to show a fall of 1.3m barrels in crude stocks last week, according to a poll of analysts by Reuters. Demand from US refineries has been weak. Refinery utilisation was expected to decline 0.1 percentage points to 85.7 per cent after a larger-than-expected drop of 2.1 percentage points in the previous week.
Gasoline stocks were expected to rise 400,000 barrels but retail prices for petrol have fallen to an eight week low which could provide some support for demand. Nymex August RBOB unleaded gasoline fell almost 2 cents to $1.8915 a gallon.
US distillate demand has been extremely weak and stocks, which already stand at a near 25-year high, were expected to rise further with an increase of 1.3m barrels.
Nymex August heating oil dipped 1.1 cents to $1.7537 a gallon.

Study of living things and their vital processes. An extremely broad subject, biology is divided into branches. The current approach is based on the levels of biological organization involved (e.g., molecules, cells, individuals, populations) and on the specific topic under investigation (e.g., structure and function, growth and development). According to this scheme, biology's main subdivisions include morphology, physiology, taxonomy, embryology, genetics, and ecology, each of which can be further subdivided. Alternatively, biology can be divided into fields especially concerned with one type of living thing; for example, botany (plants), zoology (animals), ornithology (birds), entomology (insects), mycology (fungi), microbiology (microorganisms), and bacteriology (bacteria).

If You Use The 700MHZ Band, Your Band Could Be Banned
Moderator: The GN support team
1 post
• Page 1 of 1
Our team is lucky as we can choose a different band with our Sennheisers, but many can not. This DOES include many wireless guitar/bass systems, not just the handheld and clip-on microphones:
The news: http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/wirelessmicrophones/
The gear: http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/wirelessmicropho ... urers.html
The news: http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/wirelessmicrophones/
The gear: http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/wirelessmicropho ... urers.html
Under a new FCC rule, anyone who uses a wireless microphone (or similar device) that operates in the 700 MHz Band will have to stop operating their wireless microphone (or similar device) no later than June 12, 2010. To see if this law affects your wireless microphone, check our Manufacturers Equipment list.
Why did the FCC make this rule?
Certain wireless microphones have operated in frequencies that are needed for public safety. When these microphones were first designed, the frequencies they used were in between the frequencies that television stations used to broadcast television programs. With the completion of the digital television (DTV) transition on June 12, 2009, television stations no longer use the frequencies between 698 and 806 MHz (the 700 MHz Band) for broadcast. These frequencies are now being used by public safety entities (such as police, fire and emergency services) and by commercial providers of wireless services (such as wireless broadband services).
The wireless microphones that had been operating in the old TV broadcast channels can cause harmful interference to these public safety and wireless consumer services. Therefore, all users of wireless microphones (or certain low power auxiliary stations) that operate on any of the frequencies in the 700 MHz band – including both licensed users (under Part 74) and unlicensed users – now have to stop operating in this band.
The FCC is only prohibiting the use of wireless microphones (and similar devices) that operate in the 700 MHz Band. You may continue to use wireless microphones (and similar devices) that operate on other broadcast frequencies. Microphones and other similar devices with cords are not affected by the FCC's decision.
Similar devices to wireless microphones are also known as equipment for "low power auxiliary stationsâ€. Typically these devices can transmit over distances of 100 meters. Examples of similar devices include wireless intercoms, wireless in-ear monitors (IEMâ€), wireless audio instrument links, and wireless cueing equipment. (aka "IFBâ€).

Gichin Funakoshi was born in Shuri, Okinawa, in 1868, and began training in tode (which would later become known as karate) when he was 11 years old. His two primary teachers, Yasutsune Itosu and Yasutsune Azato, gave him a thorough grounding in both the physical aspects of tode and the philosophical aspects of Confucianism and other Chinese philosophy.
Funakoshi rose to prominence in Okinawa as a karate practitioner and helped introduce the art to the public school system at the beginning of the 20th century.
In 1917, Funakoshi gave a demonstration of karate in mainland Japan and in 1922, he demonstrated it again at Japan's National Athletic Exhibition. That same year, he started Japan's first karate club at Tokyo's prestigious Keio University. His efforts in 1922 are considered to be the first, formal introduction of karate to the Japanese mainland, and Funakoshi is now known as the father of modern karate.
Karate grew rapidly in Japan under Funakoshi's guidance, and other masters from Okinawa soon followed him to the mainland with their own versions of the art.
Today, there are more than 100 styles of karate being taught in Japan, with Funakoshi's style (which has come to be known as Shotokan) the largest. Internationally, Funakoshi's Shotokan karate is practiced by millions of people in almost every country.
Gichin Funakoshi died in 1957, leaving behind him the enormous legacy of Shotokan karate.

Before the Florida Gulf Coast University men's basketball team was building up a national bandwagon, the Eagles' bus was breaking down on a road trip to face Derek Waugh's Stetson University squad.
Prior to FGCU running past Georgetown and San Diego State, it was a punching bag for Tony Ingle's Kennesaw State teams.
Much of the excitement surrounding this year's NCAA men's basketball tournament stems from a No. 15 seed from Fort Myers — which most bracket pickers didn't give a puncher's chance — reaching the Sweet 16 for the first time.
But for Ingle, Dalton State College's men's basketball coach, and Waugh, the Roadrunners' athletic director, it's this specific underdog from the Atlantic Sun Conference that piques an interest.
"No. 1, I coached in the (Atlantic Sun Conference) and it shows people the A-Sun can play basketball," said Ingle, whose first Dalton State team will take the court next school year. "Knowing the kids, who they had and watching them and how they've matured and grown (makes it interesting). They have so much confidence. And I'm pulling for them. I told my wife to put a lock on the cabinets because I get nervous when watching these games."
Both Ingle and Waugh faced the Eagles. Both won against the Eagles. Both coached against some of the same players who gave a history-rich title contender, No. 2 seed Georgetown, the ill-fated pink slip and a boot out the bracket castle for good measure.
And now, both are watching FGCU garner the limelight reserved for only the prettiest of Cinderellas.
A Cinderella run
FGCU's last loss was on Feb. 22, an 80-71 defeat at the hands of Stetson. Since then, the Eagles (26-10) have won seven straight games, including a conference tournament championship and two NCAA tournament games. This past Friday, they beat a perennial powerhouse, No. 2 seed Georgetown, 78-68 to advance to the round of 32. On Sunday, No. 7 seed San Diego State was the victim, falling 81-71.
FGCU is just the seventh No. 15 seed to advance to the round of 32 and the first to reach the Sweet 16. Due to the team's ability to pull off highlight-reel dunks and the Youtube videos that followed, the program earned the moniker of "Dunk City" — the city of Fort Myers even changed its website to reflect the nickname. A rap video by Black Magic featuring Bambi highlights all the big plays. It was posted on YouTube Saturday, and as of Thursday night it had more than half a million views.
On Monday, after the team returned to campus, there was a pep rally held inside the gymnasium. According to a Fort Myers News-Press report, some 4,000 fans packed the arena. According to a Naples Daily News story, ESPN filmed the event. Immediately following the win against San Diego State, Florida Gulf Coast was the top-trending item on Twitter.
It goes beyond Fort Myers, too. Well-known rapper Lil' Wayne asked on Twitter why one of the team's alley-oop dunks didn't make SportsCenter's Top 10 plays this past Friday.
In short, and even if for just the brief time period allowed between rounds in the NCAA tournament, FGCU has become more than just a school with a student body of 13,000 that most didn't know about — former NBA star and tournament analyst Charles Barkley asked on air where the school was located.
"They're not a juggernaut," Waugh said. "They just got on a hot streak."
Next on the docket is tonight's 9:57 tipoff in Dallas with an in-state foe, No. 3 seed Florida (28-7). The winner advances to the Elite Eight to play the winner of tonight's game between Kansas and Michigan. FGCU, obviously, is the highest-seeded team remaining in the tournament. The only other double-digit seed left as of Thursday night was No. 13 seed La Salle.
"Everyone thinks Florida will beat the snot out of them," Ingle said. "I'm a believer. I think they are going to give them a run for it."
Friendly advice
Waugh coached Stetson Univer-sity's men's basketball team from 1997 to 2011, taking over as head coach in 2000. And he may have some direct influence on FGCU success.
When he resigned as Stetson's coach — a year later becoming Dalton State's athletic director to lead the school's relaunched sports programs — he got a call from Andy Enfield. Formerly involved in the start of a health care software company once estimated to be valued at $100 million, according to a USA Today report, Enfield was an assistant at Florida State University. He called to inquire about the Stetson opening and an opening at FGCU, Waugh said, and received blunt advice.
"I told him if he was thinking of taking the Stetson job, then he was crazy," Waugh said. "I told him to take the Florida Gulf Coast job because everyone considered it a diamond in the rough. ... Right at that point, both programs had a lot of good, young players. They were both seen as good jobs. (FGCU) has got 13,000 students. It didn't have the academic requirements that Stetson did. It has a beautiful arena. Collier County is one of the wealthiest counties in the state.
"A little-known fact, they are the only Division I school in the state of Florida that does not have another Division I school within a two-hour radius. Miami is the closest. That might not seem like a lot, but there's so much talent in Florida."
Enfield became FGCU's new coach. He replaced Dave Balza, who didn't survive the transition from Division II to Division I. The same happened to Ingle, who was fired after the 2010-2011 season.
"I'm rooting for them, and I feel sorry for the coach who got fired from there," Ingle said.
In 2011-12, Enfield's first season coaching the team and the school's first with full Division I postseason eligibility, FGCU went 15-17, losing in the Atlantic Sun Conference tournament championship to Belmont.
Now he is the hot topic of the coaching carousel sector of college basketball. The Naples (Fla.) Daily News reported Monday the school planned to increase Enfield's salary from $157,000 annually to $300,000 after the season. But both USA Today and the Los Angeles Times ran stories endorsing UCLA trying to hire Enfield. The Bruins recently fired head coach Ben Howland.
"I root for coaches I know and like," Waugh said. "And I root for Andy. He's a good guy all around."
Knowing them first
There are other connections.
Brett Comer, the sophomore point guard who recorded a personal-best 14 assists and lofted up alley-oop after alley-oop in the team's third-round win against San Diego State? Waugh said he was verbally committed to Stetson just before Waugh stepped down as the program's coach.
"He was coming to Stetson before I left," he said. "A verbal is a verbal. It's not like he had signed."
Sherwood Brown, the senior guard who scored 17 points against San Diego State after recording a team-high 24 in the second-round win against Georgetown?
"Sherwoon Brown played on Olympia High School in Orlando with five Division I players," Waugh said. "He was considered out of the five the least likely Division I prospect. He came to our (team) camp at least two years. ... We wanted him to walk on because we were out of scholarships, but Florida Gulf Coast is cheaper than Stetson.
"When we played against (Brown), he was never really more than a seventh or eighth man," Waugh said.
Brown, Eddie Murray and Chase Fieler are the three players who were on the 2010-2011 FGCU team and faced Waugh and Ingle.
In a 69-68 Kennesaw State win that year, Brown played 12 minutes and tallied seven points. Murray, now a senior, played three minutes and missed his only shot. Fieler, currently a junior, started as a freshman in that game, playing 36 minutes but only scoring three points.
Ladaris Green, who played for Kennesaw State, reunited with Ingle when he committed to Dalton State, scored 14 points and grabbed 14 rebounds in that game. He scored the same amount and tallied 13 re-bounds the other time they played that season, an 81-70 Kennesaw State win.
"Sherwood Brown was special," Ingle said. "Four of their top seven players, I coached against. I knew that they were good, but at the same time we had young guys, too."
Bus ride blues
Ingle's Kennesaw State squads were 6-2 against the Eagles. Waugh's Stetson teams were 4-4.
"We couldn't have done it without the referees," Ingle joked, although noting Florida Gulf Coast was not the Atlantic Sun team he thought would make such a run.
And even this season, why would he or anyone else? The Eagles' losses include fellow Sweet 16 member Duke, tournament dropouts Virginia Commonwealth and Iowa State, the Big East Conference's St. John's and mid-major pretenders Lipscomb (twice), Maine, Mercer, Stetson and East Tennessee State.
"If anybody predicted this, that's like picking the guy who will win the $338 million lottery or picking the Kentucky Derby," Ingle said. "No one predicted them, and if they did, someone needs to give them a saliva test."
Additionally, FGCU only has been in existence since 1997. And the school's athletics has been competing in Division I just since 2007 — and this is the Eagles' first year since with a winning record. Waugh even had a "funny story" about FGCU's transition to the highest NCAA division.
Waugh said Fort Myers to DeLand, Fla., where Stetson is located, is a "three- or four-hour drive."
"Whatever year we finished third in the conference, they bused up to us the day of the game for budget reasons," he said. "They broke down in Tampa. Normally, any Division I program will travel the night before a game, but they were making a transition and their bus broke down. So that game started two or three hours late."
It once was a broken-down bus. Now it's a national phenomenon that keeps rolling along.

So we've really stocked up lately on baby stuff. I've fell in love with a few favorites so far, things I can't wait to dress the little guy in and things I've fallen in love with myself that have made my pregnancy manageable.
For baby…
Baby Leg warmers. Lexi first introduced these to me, but I didn't quite get it. Then I saw these when I was shopping on Amazon the other night.. And died. Of preppy happiness of course. They're kind of perfect for Annapolis no?
aden + anais Muslin Swaddle Wrap. They're super soft, super cute and from what I've read, super multi-use. Sold.
I just purchased these for baby last weekend – there's other stuff that I'm a big fan of also, including this book series, that Lexi started for us at my baby shower and since my mom and Adam's aunt have both sent us additional books also. I also love my aden + anais changing pad cover, and the super cute storage caddy I bought. Expect the big nursery reveal next week sometime, we just need to get artwork up on the wall and then it'll be good to go!
For me…
Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Massage Lotion For Stretch Marks. I've only just started to notice stretch marks in the last week or so and even still, they're really not that bad. Hubs calls them my battle wounds. Some women are grossed out by them but I dunno, I find them to be a pride thing – like shit. I carried a child for 9 months! Though I do envy the women who don't get stretch marks
Crossover Nursing Tank (via The Gap). I'm a big fan of most of Gap's maternity line. I started purchasing some nursing tanks for post baby and I really, really really like this one. It fits me now for starters, so it's super comfy for evening lounging, and is cute to boot. Though I wouldn't necessarily wear it in public as it's a bit…low cut (maybe with a sweater?), it'll still make me feel pretty when I'm lounging around on the couch or in the hospital post-c-section.
Full Panel Maternity Leggings (Old Navy). These, I've found were the best bang for my buck. $14 a pop, and by far the most comfy thing I own these days. I live, breathe and…well…that's about it in these.
lululemon's cool racerback tank. I own dozens of these tanks, and while I had to size up (usually a six, a size 8 during pregnancy), they've lasted me throughout this pregnancy and are great for layering under a cardigan, sweater, or t-shirt. Probably how I've gotten away with such a limited maternity wardrobe because I've been able to use so much of my regular wardrobe for pregnancy. It's what happens when you lose ~20 pounds just before you get knocked up. Ha!
lululemon's still pant. I fell in love with these pants when I worked at lululemon, and because you generally size down in these (otherwise they're huge!) I've been able to roll them up over my belly or down under my belly and lounge around the house in them. They're probably also the pants that I'll be coming home in and living in post surgery since they're that comfortable. Close second? The Astro pant.
What products/clothing items are you loving these days? Any post-natal must haves that you loved or didn't (for yourself or for baby)?
Happy Friday everyone! Stay tuned – Five on Friday is coming back this afternoon!

I want to make a homemade chocolate cake for my husband's upcoming birthday. He loves all things sweet and chocolatey.
In the past, my cakes have fallen in the middle or been too wet and never set right. And, then I try to correct that and end up with a mess of totally unediable dry cake. What are the good recipes that are more trustworthy, and what are some of the tips to making a good rich moist chocolatey-chocolate cake? Thanks one and all who offer tips, recipes, and help! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Colleenoz's recipe for chocolate cake is excellent. I am no baker and it is perfect every time. Colleen's Chocolate Cake 1 Cup caster sugar (called superfine sugar in the US) Preheat oven to 170C (325F), grease and line two 20cm (8") round cake tins. Ice with chocolate icing. *If you have not got sour milk, add a tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to milk and leave in a warm place. NOTES : This is a very rich, almost black chocolate cake which stays moist for days and freezes well. This is the recipe , from another forum member, I use for the icing. Della Dufour's Chocolate Icing (Dances) 1 1/2 Tbl butter |
- Posted by ginger_st_thomas (My Page) on Thu, Apr 24, 08 at 17:11
Is your oven temperature uneven (hot spots?)or not the right temp? Test the cake with a tester or toothpick near the center 5-10 minutes earlier than a recipe calls for. It should come out clean without crumbs sticking to it. You can use a regular chocolate frosting with this if you prefer as I do: DARK CHOCOLATE CAKE W/WHITE BUTTERCREAM FROSTING Preheat oven to 325° with the shelf positioned in the lower 1/3 of the oven. Line two 9" lightly greased & floured cake pans w/circles of parchment. (You can dust the pans w/cocoa instead if you like.) WHITE CHOCOLATE BUTTERCREAM Cream the cream to a boil in a small saucepan. Pour the hot cream over the chopped white chocolate & stir until completely smooth. Stir creme de cacao into the white chocolate into the white chocolate mixture. Col, stirring occasionally. Cream the butter in a large bowl. Add the confectioners' sugar & beat 5 minutes until light & fluffy. Add the white chocolate mixture to the butter mixture gradually, beating at low speed until the desired ocnsistency is reached. Decorate with dark chocolate shavings.~~Save the Brandywine Valley |
From experience.... make sure you cream your sugars and butter well. Beat it until fluffly. Also make sure that all your ingredients are well incorporated. Don't beat too long though but at least about 2 minutes. As for dryness, don't overcook. The amount of fat call for in the recipe, using buttermilk, sour cream, etc., all help to make a cake moist. |
I found this recipe many years ago and have used it as my standby recipe for chocolate layer cake ever since. BASIC CHOCOLATE CAKE 1/2 cup butter or margarine Beat butter and sugar together in large mixing bowl; add eggs; beat until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla and chocolate. Sift together dry ingredients; add alternately with sour cream to butter mixture, beating well after each addition. Pour into 2 greased and floured 9-inch layer cake pans. Bake in preheated 350 degree F. oven 35 minutes or until cake tests done. Cool in pan on wire racks 10 minutes. Turn out onto racks; cool completely. Fill and frost as desired. Yield: 12 servings. |
I just made this old family favorite, which is a very moist, heavy cake, for my daughter's b'day... just like when she was a kid. I used Linda C's recipe for Marshmallow Frosting. (Thanks Linda for the recipe. It was exactly what I was looking for.) Fudge Oat Cake 1 1/2 cups Boiling water Pour boiling water over oatmeal, let sit to cool. Yield: 12 3" squares; 24 cupcakes (30 minutes baking time.) Frost or dust with powered sugar, OR, use linda's recipe below. My favorite frosting... Like old marshmallow recipe 3/4 cup sugar put all in a double boiler...or a bowl that will fit over a pan of simmering water. Beat with a hand held mixer while cooking over simmering water until soft peaks form, turn off heat....and continue beating until firm enough...3 or 4 minutes more. lindac Enjoy! Westelle |

pat t - what do you do with the boiling water? |
Well POOP! Here's the corrected recipe: BASIC CHOCOLATE CAKE 1/2 cup butter or margarine Beat butter and sugar together in large mixing bowl; add eggs; beat until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla and chocolate. Sift together dry ingredients; add alternately with sour cream to butter mixture, beating well after each addition. Add boiling water (batter will be very thin). Pour into 2 greased and floured 9-inch layer cake pans. Bake in preheated 350° F. oven 35 minutes or until cake tests done. Cool in pan on wire racks 10 minutes. Turn out onto racks; cool completely. Fill and frost as desired. Yield: 12 servings. |

Beatty's Chocolate Cake By:Barefoot Contessa Butter, for greasing the pans 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for pans 2 cups sugar 3/4 cups good cocoa powder 2 teaspoons baking soda 1 teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon kosher salt 1 cup buttermilk, shaken 1/2 cup vegetable oil 2 extra-large eggs, at room temperature 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 1 cup freshly brewed hot coffee Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter 2 (8-inch) round cake pans. Line with parchment paper, then butter and flour the pans. |
Snowball: Your cake recipe sounds very much like an old, old family recipe that I make all the time. I've "tweaked" it over the years so it's like the Barefoot Contessa's, with hot coffee. It's a great recipe. I'm interested in the recipe for the cooked frosting that you say you don't make. If it's the same one that I have with my cake recipe it has a marvelous flavor, but always seems to end up with little lumps, and possibly the method used in your recipe would be the answer to eliminating them. Thanks so much. |

Dear Derek, So for the past couple of years I have changed my mind about what I want to do with my life. I am not asking what I should do, but how do I know for sure that what I choose is what I want to do? It seems like every few months I get really into what I want to do, and then I start to question that choice. I am starting to become afraid that I will never know what I want to do with my life. What can I do to make sure I know what is right for me? - - JCA
Dear JCA, Do not let your fear stop you from questioning what you want to do with your life. For a long time, before my undergraduate studies, I attended a school that taught a classical education. We could argue for a long time about the advantages and disadvantages of the paradigm of the classical education system, but one thing I did learn from my time there: the Socratic method.
the Socratic method: disciplined questioning that can be used to pursue thought in many directions and for many purposes, including: to explore complex ideas, to get to the truth of things, to open up issues and problems, to uncover assumptions, to analyze concepts, to distinguish what we know from what we don't know, to follow out logical implications of thought, or to control the discussion.
Although not usually called this, questioning is part of everyone's lives. People want to know everything from "what is truth?" to "what should I do with my life in the future?". As time goes on, and people become more mature, they continue to ask more and more questions, refining their worldviews and beliefs. This is what I think you are in the middle of right now.
Questioning what you want to do, and changing your mind is absolutely normal and healthy. Do not be discouraged that you do not know what your future holds yet. These things take time, and should not be rushed. As to how you can make sure what major or job is right for you...well I can not answer that for you. There is no formula to life. Decisions should come from a mix of prayer and trial and error. If we are open to it, God can lead us down roads that we would never take on our own.
So, although I have not been able to tell you exactly how you can know what is right for you, I hope that I have pushed you in the right direction. Keep questioning. Pray. Also, seek the advice of those around you who know you well. They may be able to push you in the direction that you need.

I have seen many women on here discouraged as the Catholic men who are serious about chastity and living a pure single life seem to be hiding. This thread is a chance for all of these men to stand up and be recognized and hopefully find a date with the many women who are looking for a man just like you. So if you are a Catholic man serious about pleasing the Lord and living a chaste single life stand up and let us recognize you. We truly need to honor men like you and it would give us women a chance to tell you how great and wonderful you are in our eyes and how much hope you give us.
So stand up and take a bow.
I hope that we have so many men willing to own to this that this thread shuts down quickly. Remember that you do not have to be perfect but actively striving towards it and actively trying to learn how to be a good Catholic man. Stand up and show that you are out there
I am someone who desires to be pleasing to God. I acknowledge it is hard and much harder when we are actively dating a person, but it is worth it in the end to put God first and seek like minded individuals.

Anyone who listened to Custom Action Figure News a few weeks ago already know what this part of the list is going to look like, still it would be no fun without all the long winded explanations and a bunch of Photoshoping.
So this year we got treated to what is probably the best superhero movie EVER.
I know some will argue The Dark Knight Rises is the best, but I would argue Nolan's Batman movies are more along the dramatic lines with some Superhero themes. Avengers, in contrast, really captured many of the aspects of what makes superheroes a compelling genre of storytelling. Action, a villain with clear motives and a plan, powerful heroes strutting their stuff, even some good old fashioned laughs. Avengers had it all, even Samuel L. Jackson.
Jackson as Fury really makes him really the guy who got to live the geek's dreams. He was a Jedi and now he was the leader of SHIELD. Unfortunately, he's never been given a really good figure. There was an attempt with Iron Man 2 but the figure recycled too many parts from GI Joe. This one recycled parts from Winter Soldier from the Captain America Line of last year but the addition of the coat made it work a bit better and seem fresh. Fury looked ready for combat and practical at the same time. Point is he worked a ton better than the first try. Of course he had no wrist articulation which is a bummer, but at the same time he had a bit more than most of the rest of the Avengers line so it kind of balanced out. Unfortunately, I was never able to find Black Widow at a point where I had the cash for her so I can't comment for certain if she is better than Nick. Still, of the Avengers Figures I have been able to grab, Nick is the best of the Avengers Figures so far, not even a contest.
From the Avengers line to another Avenger, say hello to the Scarlet Witch. Wanda gets a special place because she completes my desire to have the Avengers in 1:18th scale (at least my version of the Avengers, as I am sure everyone has their own). In addition she has a GREAT mold that knocks the daylight out of previous female molds (I really wish they would repaint Ms. Marvel with this mold).
Granted, Wanda's popularity has waned in the past few years. This is partly due to the fact that it seems everyone and their brother has picked Wanda to go nuts and betray the Avengers over and over. The latest was Avengers Disassembled which she still hasn't recovered from. The storyline forced her to go nuts over a situation she had dealt with several years ago (her children). The tale started abruptly and with seemingly no build, it just sort of happened. At first the story was a kind of "Holy crap!" kind of moments (Although there are comparable stories in hindsight). Once the big revelation about Wanda got put in the story kind of feel flat. Re-reading it you kind of get a sense "OK, they just wanted to screw with the Avengers, but then bring things back to status quo so all the OMG's have no real impact." Well that is the way I viewed it.
Wanda went all nuts a couple of times before which also weakened the story. She had the spirit of Morgana take her body over and defeated the Avengers. There was also the time her kids "faded from existence" and she joined up with Magneto and the Brotherhood briefly (Yeah, that trauma she had dealt with already). Wanda seems to have been regulated to the "girl we can make a traitor for shock value." She later caused most of the mutants to fade from existence (then of course most of them came back too, so what was the point again?).
Wanda has been given a bad rep, but I tend to think old school with her, it just seems less convoluted in the end. That plus the fact she's kind of cool then makes her a must have character and cements her standing in my favorites list of the year.
He's big, green, mean and one of the most popular characters ever in Marvel. He's Hulk and FINALLY got a worthwhile 1:18th scale figure.
Hulk's 1:18th history has been pretty rough. He had a Mego one that was just ok, but all the Mego 1:18th's were kind of weak due to the fact that articulation had moved up and the superheroes were stuck in SW levels that had become way outdated by that point. Ironic considering Mego had been using the O-Ring design later used in GI Joe long before Hasbro did. Hulk did not receive a 1:18th figure until Toybiz's Superhero Showdown Line. Problem with that figure was he had some very questionable muscle tone in the chest. Next, came the Hasbro first attempt which was a disappointment on many levels. Sorry to those that love that figure but the fact he cannot move those legs effectively really kills what could have been a good mold.
Finally this year he got a figure based on his Iconic look that worked on all levels. The figure had some parts from the World War Hulk version (who was #10 on the list in 2010 for those keeping score). WWH is great figure but did not have that Iconic look of this figure which is the most desirable to me. There was a tolerable one in the Avengers Boxed Set, but again not quite the iconic look (no torn purple pants, just the shorts he wore in Avengers #1).
Now we get a cool, iconic, and fully poseible Hulk, what more can you ask for, right? OK maybe a better movie one, but it could be worse as history has shown us.
With Star Wars, there are certain versions of characters that seem like a must. There are about 3 versions of Han, around 3-4 versions of Princess Leia, and about 4 must haves of Luke. Hoth Luke was the last one not done for quite a while. Finally, Hasbro chose to give us one with the Vintage Collection. Not only was it a version of Hoth Lukebut it was a good one.
There are issues, I grant you that, but overall this figure works for who he is and it feels completing a necessity of Lukes through the trilogy.
I think it is funny that the Empire Strikes Back is the movie Hasbro has been slowest to fill versions of characters on. Just like Bespin Han (which took forever to finally get a version of), Hoth Luke was one of those figures that just seemed natural to have in the fold. Simply put, I really dig this figure and am glad to finally have it.
I think it was John Byrne who said that She-Hulk was the Wonder Woman of the Marvel Universe. She's beyond tough, she's sexy, she's smart and she has that usual factor that is hard to define. She managed to work beyond the "female hulk" status and become a character unto herself.
I have a certain fondness for Shulkie. Sure she fulfills that Star Trek Fantasy easily. But beyond that she shows a woman can be strong and smart and hot. Some have taken her outgoing nature to the point of sluttyness (Not something I am very agreeable with by the way). While an assertive and sexy woman is hard for many man to grasp I think it makes her more fun as a character.
But on top of everything she is a lawyer which catches most people off guard. I mean brawn, sexy and brains is often too much for some men (as shown with some slutty interpretations). I was shocked and happy when she was announced and it feels like it's been FOREVER since we first saw press pictures of her. Probably because it actually has been. But Jen has a knack for being fashionably late and why shouldn't her excellent figure have that aspect as well.
Now this figure wins the award for "special place" on the list this year. With this figure Hasbro took a character is despise and made a figure I just adore. That is no small feat and shows Hasbro does have some talent in the way of making action figures. Hear that appologists, I just paid Hasbro a complement, a HUGE complement when you think about it.
Road Pig, as a character, personified the worst character traits of any bad guy I can think of. He had a "split-personality" which meant you never knew what you were dealing with. With some characters this can work (Two Face comes to mind) but in this instance it doesn't. I know I said I like the chaotic element of the Drednoks, but I felt Road Pig pushed that chaos a bit in a direction I was unsure of and did not like.
This figure makes Road Pig look like a knight in the Road Warrior. They kept the elements clearly stolen from that film (another gripe I had with the first figure) and improved on them to a point they look like inspiration instead of theft. It's a great figure and has changed my opinion on RP. Yes, that was a monumental task.
From a least favorite to a line of favorite characters. Now I will tell that from here on out are some of my all time favorite characters from any media. To me this group was the saving grace of the entire year.
So as I said with Vos, I hate Episode I with a passion. To me it delivered a weak hope for what was to be the first Star Wars film since 1977. Granted I hated Episode II even more because I had convinced myself that Episode I was boring due to establishing this nice utopia. Little did I realize the story of how Luke and Liea's parents got together could make my retnieas wish they had not existed.
BUT, there was one thing I liked, and I mean REALLY liked about Episode I. It was Darth Maul. As a friend of mine once joked about in relation to Boba Fett "Lucas gave him so few lines he didn't get a chance to screw him up, that's why he's cool." Maul burst into the final battle with Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon appearing like liquid rage which was a very sharp contrast to Darth Vader. It worked, and it worked well in my mind. Maul was different and dynamic testing the Jedi as no foe had before and left a strong impression. Unfortunately he died at the end, but I sometimes think that just made him cooler because he was kind of like a shooting star that shined incredibly bright but only for a moment. Yeah, I can get poetic at times.
With Episdode I's figure line I felt that Maul never got a figure worthy of his character. A friend of mine ended up customizing a Maul from the various releases but even then he just didn't have that "UMPH" he deserved. The Vintage Collection finally gave us an excellent Maul, unfortunately he practically became a peg warmer later in the year due to an over abundance of a mostly weak wave of figures.
Adding to the issue was the fact that with this EXCELLENT Darth Maul two more crappy ones were delivered to store shelves at the same time. Now if kids asked for "Darht Maul" the parents went to the store and saw three different ones. Best case scenario they picked up the right one on accident. Worst case they left in frustration, way to alienate the market there Big H. Anyone who took a Marketing 101 (or just had bought toys for the past year) could have seen this issue. That was the infuriating part of the whole thing. Granted Maul had yet another release in the Clone Wars Target Exclusive 3-pack, but at least that was more distinct and easy to differentiate from the others and would have been even if he wasn't in a three pack. After my review of him this year I had long time fans asking which one of the three released versions he was. What does that tell you, guys who are hooked into the information on the web and see all the reports from Toyfair and Comic Con didn't have a clue which one was the cool one, what hope did the average kid have let alone their parents (AKA the source of the kid's money).
Way back in the day this guy just shocked me by picking up Thor's hammer and becoming Beta Ray Bill. Although others had lifted the hammer no one had ever tried to tap it's power until Bill (which was an accident but still cool). Bill became a on again/off again type character making some scant appearances for years until finally becoming more and more popular (slowly at that).
Anyway I have loved Bill for many years, one of my top 5 characters to add to Marvel Universe since the line began. I really hoped he would have hit in the second wave (yes, I know unrealistic but man I wanted this figure). Like Ultimates Thor, I was highly disappointed when he did not appear in the Thor line. Really he was in the "DUH!" category when I thought of who should be in the Thor line.
Why now does Bill finally get a figure in Marvel Universe. Who knows? There is so much craziness surrounding the rumors about MU and Hasbro in general it's hard to say what the reality is at this point for character selection and/or the future of the line.
At the minimum I can be so happy that I got a character I have wanted to hang with Vader and Snake Eyes for years and years.
So this year I broke two big collecting promises. First was no more Storm Shadows (as seen with #12) and the bigger one that I had kept for so long NO MORE VADERS!
Even though he is probably the most recognized character in the world, I haven't bought a Vader since Legacy, that was a while ago. Now I have to admit that the 30th Vader was darn near perfection. Since then Hasbro has been cursing Vader with all kinds of weird hands that do not allow him to fully grasp his lightsaber (but note the 30th had a pretty solid grasp) this figure looks as if it shouldn't have that kind of hold but in actuality it does. A major plus over most of the recent Darth Vader figures.
But add to that is the addition of hip articulation that is beyond T-crotch. While Vader probably shouldn't be side kicking this addition does allow for more dramatic poses.
But the major draw for this figure is the fact he looks like a PERFECT representation of Vader in Episode IV (which, Yes, there are huge differences, especially the color of the Shoulder pads). Most of the Vader figures ever released were based more upon the Empire Strikes Back or more often the Return of the Jedi designs. The brown eye lenses to detract a bit but if you pay close attention such colors are accurate.
I once saw a documentary that suggested some people thought Vader was a Robot until Empire Strikes Back but to my mind I seem to recall him as a person, possibly with robotic parts. Not sure if anyone really thought that or if it was the Lucas revision of history marching on but I remember him being a person. I suppose I felt he had too much personality to be anything but a person. Stormtroopers on the other hand I was convinced that they were not human and possibly Androids.
In some ways one can argue I waited a very long time for this figure, but there is one that I have waited even longer. I daresay I waited ALL my life for this figure which is the exact reason he ends up at the number 1 spot
Drum roll please:
This may be a controversial decision but please hear my explanation for my choice.
So as I said with Bilbo and Gollum, The Hobbit was the first book I ever read. I read it before Star Wars was released and before I knew anything about superheroes or super-villains. Basically, Gandalf is probably the first character I ever truly loved as a character. To be honest I often find every character I have ever created has some basis in Gandalf. Not exact but a quirk or mannerism that I pulled straight from Gandalf. I never went full blown and made a character fully based on Gandalf (although there is an idea I have for my Western/Horror Universe Badlands (shameless plug) but I wonder if that might be "jumping the shark" so to speak). I dare say he has been one of my favorite characters since I was a kid.
Once Star Wars toys hit my next wish was for a 1:18th version of Gandalf. While there was an action figure line for the animated version of the Hobbit it wasn't the same scale as the classic Star Wars toys. I trudged along through GI Joe and the 80's cementing my love of 1:18th scale. All the while I hoped for a 3 & 3/4 inch Gandalf. When Lord of the Rings finally reached the big screen I knew toys would follow. While I did like the 6 inch version of Gandalf (and the rest of the Fellowship) I was disappointed there was no 1:18th scale line.
Then, this year, with the release of the Hobbit came the announcement of toys. When the revelation of 1:18th figures came out I was in shock. Could it be that after all this 36 years of wanting I would finally get Gandalf in 3 & 3/4 scale? I mean think about that, 36 years I have wanted this figure thinking he would never be. I mean a Hobbit line HAD to have Gandalf, right.
Well it did and while Hasbro's disappointments all year had gotten me trained for letdowns I was treated to a really excellent figure. Some have complained about the ankles, but you know what, screw it. Ankles is probably the one place a toy company can skimp that I won't complain about (with the exceptions of some Ninja and Jedi Types who may need that level of articulation). The likeness of Sir Ian McKellen is pretty spot on. There is a big part of me that felt his likeness HAD to be Gandalf. Sure you could get away with not putting his face on Magneto (even though I do think he just as strongly identifies with both characters) but with Gandalf it's almost like he is that character.
So really how can you top a figure I have waited 36 years for.
And that puts to bed another (very tough) year of collecting. Will next year turn things around? I'll be honest I want to hope so but I am not seeing a great deal to hope for right now. Maybe I'm wrong as Toyfair is nearly hear (just days away as of this posting). Maybe we will finally have some good news, or maybe not. Either way my collection is still stronger despite a weak year. No matter what all I can see is better strengthening as I know I can just pass on those cheap figures and concentrate on the cool stuff.
Yeah, I am trying to end on a positive, not bad for a "hater" eh.
Don't forget to like Scale Wars on Facebook, Also like my upcoming horror western novel Badlands to get advance previews and info on characters, creatures and more.

Let Betty Tibikawa stay!
Betty Tibikawa is a Ugandan lesbian who was branded with a hot iron because of her sexuality. She has been kept in Yarl's Wood immigration removal centre for some time. Now the government has decided that she must be deported back to Uganda, the country where she was so horribly attacked and injured and where David Kato, a Ugandan gay activist, was murdered earlier this month. This is in spite of Nick Clegg saying that this country would not deport people persecuted on account of their sexuality. You can read the story at http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2011/may/31/ugandan-branded-iron-deportation-sexuality. We call upon the UK Border Agency and the British government to give Betty Tibikawa leave to remain in the UK with refugee status and to stop deporting people persecuted for their sexuality.

Financial Aid 101: When to Expect Your Award Letter
What exactly is an "award letter?"A financial aid award letter (sometimes called a financial aid "package") is a document that will list all of the types of financial aid (or "awards") you are eligible to receive from the University of Denver. The aid listed may be provided by a combination of federal, state or institutional sources.
How are my awards determined?The types of aid listed on your award letter are based on several things, including the information you and your family supplied on the FAFSA and CSS PROFILE and your planned enrollment.
What do I need to do to receive an award letter?In order to receive your award letter, your "file" must be complete. That means:
So when will I receive it?We will begin sending award letters to students who have completed all of the steps outlined above in mid-to-late March. If you haven't taken all of those steps, be sure to do so as soon as possible. Feel free to check your status at any time to make sure you have done everything you need to!
How will I be notified?You will receive a comprehensive award packet in the mail. This packet will include additional information and resources that will help you understand your financial aid options at DU. We will also send you an email when you can view your award letter online.
Anything else I should know?Most of the awards in your financial aid package will be offered to you. This means that if you don't want to borrow a loan you were offered, for example, you don't have to. Also, know that many types of financial aid will require you to take additional steps before you can receive funds.
Additionally, please be aware that in accordance with University of Denver policy, we cannot negotiate financial aid packages. However, if you or your family has an extenuating circumstance that is not reflected on your FAFSA or CSS PROFILE, please contact us.
A lot information will be included in your financial aid award letter—be sure to read it all carefully!

For programmers who would like to use IntelliJ IDEA with this course.
This video is hosted at ScalaCourses.com. If you are viewing this video from another site you probably want to read the transcript for this video because it has HTML links and images. To do that, visit http://scalacourses.com, click on the Introduction to Scala course, then the Sections and Lectures tab, then scroll down until you see the Working With IntelliJ IDEA lecture, and click on the Transcript tab.
You need to install the software mentioned in the course overview page; at a minimum, install SBT, Scala and IntelliJ IDEA. IDEA 12 or IDEA 13 can be used to work with the projects provided with this course. JetBrains offers a 30 day trial for IDEA Ultimate, but the free version should also work for Scala projects. You need the Ultimate edition in order to work with Play. This lecture was originally produced with IDEA 12.1.3 and was updated to IDEA 13.1.3. If you have an older version of IDEA then some portions of this lecture will not correspond to what you see on your screen.
has been packaged many ways, and IDEA has supported most of them at one time or another. Regardless of how scalac
is packaged, it needs a lot more memory than the Java compiler. The instructions below are intended to guide you through the most appropriate way of configuring the Scala compiler options.Under Linux and Windows with Cygwin, you can launch IDEA like the following. Be sure that JAVA_HOME
is set. Of course, the directory you installed into will likely be different:
/opt/idea-IU-135.909/bin/idea.sh &> /dev/null &
Under Mac:
/Applications/IntelliJ\ IDEA\ 13.app/Contents/MacOS/idea &
When IDEA starts for the first time, it will run the Initial Configuration Wizard, and ask for the plugins that you want to enable. I have not noticed issues with having lots of unnecessary plugins enabled, and you can disable plugins easily at any time, so you should press the Skip button and move on.
If you import a settings file (from the Welcome to IntelliJ IDEA screen: Configure / Import settings), by default called settings.jar
, then all of the following settings could be set.
Now go back to the Configure menu and select Project Defaults, which defines defaults for new projects.
. For Ubuntu Linux, this will be under /usr/lib/jvm
. For Windows you should use a 64 bit Java compiler, which defaults to a directory like C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_60
Change the Theme to Darcula. IDEA will restart.
Go back to Configure / Preferences / IDE Settings
Editor - uncheck Allow placement of caret after end of line.
HTML / File reference problems (so Play templates do not have a lot of complaints over missing files)
Scala: Method signature / Method with Unit result type defined like function
I turned these warnings on:
Scala: General / Relative import
Click OK
If you ever have a strange problem with IDEA when working with a project, check that the JDK settings are correct in all three places. These can get out of whack when Java automatically updates.
You can use jvisualvm
, provided with the Java Development Kit, to measure memory usage of the IDE, so you can optimize the memory settings. The VisualVM site has many articles that discuss how to use the tool. I suggest that you do not use the VisualVM IDE plugin to measure the IDE that it runs from, and instead run the tool standalone!
In the IDEA installation directory, edit bin/idea.vmoptions
. My development machine has 32 GB RAM, and I use that memory to run several virtual machines simultaneously. Each VM has 7 GB RAM. Here are my settings:
-Xms1128m -Xmx2512m -XX:MaxPermSize=500m -XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize=164m -XX:+UseCodeCacheFlushing -ea -Dsun.io.useCanonCaches=false -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
Recommendation - do not follow this process to create a scala project from IDEA, instead create an sbt project (copy sbtTemplate
to make your life easier) then convert it to IDEA using gen-idea
, described next.
1) Start IntelliJ IDEA, and click on Create New Project. |
2) Give your new project a name. |
3) The project name will be used as the IntelliJ module name by default. | |
4) Click Finish and you will be presented with this query. Click OK. | |
5) After a moment the Project panel will open up. Click on the module name to open it. The top one or two directories are the .idea* directories; normally you should not need to look inside. |
6) The We select Scala Class even if we want to make a Scala object or a Scala case class. |
7) Give your new Scala file a name. The Scala file will have a .scala file type automatically added. |
8) IDEA creates a default Scala class with the name of the file. | |
9) We need a main method for our console application. This means we need to extend an object (not a class) with the App trait. Change the word class to object and add extends App . The constructor for the object consists of only one line, which prints the traditional Hello, world! |
10) Let's run the console app by right-clicking on it in the Project panel and selecting Debug Weather.main(). | |
11) You are notified that an external Scala compiler is being used to compile the program. This is good. While IDEA builds, you will see the status line at the bottom of the screen shows all the actions performed. | |
12) Output appears in the Debug panel which opens up at the bottom of the IDEA window. You can click on the Debug tab to show or hide the Debug panel. You can rerun the app by clicking on the little green bug on the left side of the Debug panel. | |
13) You can edit the debug configuration by clicking on the pull-down menu at the top center of the IDEA window. | |
14) You can add arguments for the JVM and your program, as well as tweak other settings. | |
15) If you enable Share, the debug configuration is written to a file in the .idea directory. You can check it into git if you want:
$ git add -fA .idea/runConfigurations/* $ git commit -m "New run configuration" $ git push |
16) A completed program. |
IntelliJ 13 for Scala has some new options which are non-obvious. You can now open a build.sbt
file instead of running sbt gen-idea
, discussed in the next section. When you do so, you will see the following dialog box. You should always enable both options.
"Use auto-import" option turns on subsequent monitoring of relevant project configuration files (*.sbt, ./project/**
) and project refreshing on changes in those files.
Create directories ... " checkbox can be used to automatically create source and test directories (like main/src/java
) that are reported by SBT but not yet present in a project (so that Project Structure / [Module] / Sources contained no red entries./
The JetBrains Scala team indicated to me that they will soon add the means to explicitly update projects. They also told me that the checkboxes will probably be removed from the project import dialog in a future release. To modify these settings afterwards, you may access them via Project Settings / SBT.
This section discusses how to work with IntelliJ IDEA on Scala projects in a more traditional manner, instead of opening SBT projects directly. This might be required if you are using IDEA 12, or if you have a complex SBT setup.
At the command line, navigate to the course_scala_intro_code
directory. It contains two directories, called courseNotes
and assignment
To export the courseNotes
sbt project to IDEA, change to the courseNotes
directory and run this command:
sbt gen-idea
If this is the first time you run sbt with this project, you will have to wait several minutes while many dependencies are downloaded. Eventually you will see something like:
[info] Loading global plugins from C:\Users\Mike Slinn\.sbt\plugins [info] Loading project definition from C:\scalaCore\scalaIntro\courseNotes\project [info] Set current project to scalaJavaOOCompatCourse (in build file:/C:/scalaCore/scalaIntro/courseNotes/) [info] Trying to create an Idea module scalaJavaOOCompatCourse [info] Excluding folder target [info] Created C:\scalaCore\scalaIntro\courseNotes/.idea/IdeaProject.iml [info] Created C:\scalaCore\scalaIntro\courseNotes\.idea [info] Excluding folder C:\scalaCore\scalaIntro\courseNotes\target [info] Created C:\scalaCore\scalaIntro\courseNotes\.idea_modules/scalaJavaOOCompatCourse.iml [info] Created C:\scalaCore\scalaIntro\courseNotes\.idea_modules/scalaJavaOOCompatCourse-build.iml
Now change to the the assignment
directory and run the same command:
sbt gen-idea
Again, output should look something like:
[info] Loading global plugins from C:\Users\Mike Slinn\.sbt\plugins [info] Loading project definition from C:\scalaCore\scalaIntro\assignment\project [info] Set current project to scalaIntroAssignment (in build file:/C:/scalaCore/scalaIntro/assignment/) [info] Trying to create an Idea module scalaJavaOOCompatAssignment [info] Excluding folder target [info] Created C:\scalaCore\scalaIntro\assignment/.idea/IdeaProject.iml [info] Created C:\scalaCore\scalaIntro\assignment\.idea [info] Excluding folder C:\scalaCore\scalaIntro\assignment\target [info] Created C:\scalaCore\scalaIntro\assignment\.idea_modules/scalaJavaOOCompatAssignment.iml [info] Created C:\scalaCore\scalaIntro\assignment\.idea_modules/scalaJavaOOCompatAssignment-build.iml
The gen-idea
command creates two directories, named .idea
and .idea_modules
. Both of these directories should be mentioned in the .gitignore
file. You can examine the .gitignore
files provided with the projects for this course.
and click Choose.src
directory contents.The project
directory contains the sbt project files and directories. The External libraries directory is presented to you by IDEA so you can browse the project dependencies. These files actually reside in ~/.ivy2
. Note that there are two versions of the Scala compiler, one for the SBT build system and one to compile your code.
We need to configure the project structure before we can compile. File / Project structure opens a new window, and the Project SDK is probably invalid. You need to tell IDEA where your JDK is, so click the New... button, select JDK and navigate to the directory that you installed the JDK. Click the Apply button at the lower right of the window. We are done with Project Settings.
, and right-click.The problem is that the Library definition for the scala compiler is missing some or all of its contents. IDEA 13 is supposed to make this problem go away. Until then, here is what you need to do:
(this is the Scala run-time library, and it consists of the executable jar, source code jar and Javadoc jar)scala
2.10.2 (this is the collection of jars for running the Scala compiler)You may find that the editor does not parse complex Scala code or Play templates properly. If this happens you will see lots of good code highlighted as errors on the screen, and cutting and pasting may work improperly. You can temporarily toggle the Scala for the editor parser off and on by clicking in the small [T]
symbol at the bottom right of the screen, in the status bar area. When Scala parsing is disabled, the symbol displays as [_]
If you have set up Eclipse keyboard shortcuts as described, the following extra keyboard shortcuts are specific to IntelliJ IDEA. The Key Promoter and Shortcut Keys List plugins are helpful for learning IntelliJ keyboard hot keys.
Shift Shift (twice in a row) - search everywhere, also shows recently edited files
Alt + 1 Toggle project view
Ctrl + E Open recently edited files
Ctrl + Shift + E Open recently changed files
Alt + Home Open navigation bar

Words Worth
Former Rambert dancer Yorke-Edgell created her company Yorke Dance Project in Los Angeles in 1998 and relocated to the UK in 2009. It is no surprise, therefore, to discover that there is a vestigial Americana coursing through her work. Of the five pieces on show in this bizarre cocktail of an evening, three are US-influenced in spite of the fact that only one is by an American choreographer - John Pennington. The two lengthiest works are supplied by Yorke-Edgell - Noted (in which she appears as Marilyn Monroe) and City Limitless, a distillation of Jack Kerouac's life and writing.
A scene from Words Worth at Lilian Baylis Studios, London Photo: Tristram Kenton
The problem with this kind of catch-all approach is that it looks like a random compilation of work - purpose, direction or thematic coherence are conspicuously absent.
Yorke-Edgell herself is a good dancer but an unadventurous choreographer. Her opening piece, Noted, inspired by letters from a variety of historical figures, is undeniably well-dressed but fairly conservative in its groupings and gestural impact. The JS Bach section is the best by far with the composer portrayed in triplicate in a blizzard of hand-flourishing, bowing and smirking. The Hunter S Thompson section is a close runner-up and danced with formidable energy and Gonzo aggression by the ensemble in classic Thompson garb of hats, shades and Bermuda shorts to Thomas Preston's comically vicious score.
The remaining pieces are a very mixed bag, however. Pennington's The Goodman Trio, apparently selected from a longer work, is unmemorable and Anton du Beke's swirling ballroom tribute to Hollywood musicals is slick and vacuous. As for the Kerouac-inspired City Limitless, there is more prancing than dancing and it suffers from an over-literal interpretation of the writer's words and a facelessly illustrative choreography as if a forger were trying to copy a Rembrandt with wax crayons. Among the hardworking cast, Hannah Windows is a sparkling and attractive presence, and Jack Jones and Alastair Postlethwaite are confidently expressive.

The city club have dropped just five points in their 11 games and have a three-point lead at the top, sitting nine points ahead of Bowdon who are fourth, occupying the final play-off place.
Bowdon are the visitors at 11.45am on Saturday as Canterbury seek a sixth-straight league win and Wilson said: "We're looking forward to getting back.
"The indoor season was great but we are back and focused on the outdoor season. We want to pick up where we left off."
The ladies have been preparing for the season by taking on teams made up of players from the club's male second and third teams.
Wilson said: "It was a good exercise for us, playing against teams of sensible guys. Their pace is faster and it's good preparation."
Canterbury have confirmed the signing of Susie Rowe for the remainder of the outdoor season after the multi-talented England cricketer originally re-joined for the indoor campaign.
Rowe's registration has been reactivated after she was most recently with Bromley & Beckenham. Another arrival is former Cannock striker Hayley Turner who returns to the Premier Division from the University of Maryland.
The city club will, however, be missing top scorer Nikki Kidd and skipper Grace Balsdon who are on a GB training camp in San Diego, USA.

If not, I really must be implemented soon because building and testing livecd is _REALLY_ a long/hard/boring task for me.
