Pushing Past Obstacles at The Studio Climbing
- Details
- Published: Wednesday, 07 May 2014 14:28
One of our favorite members was featured in the San Jose Mercury News! Check out his inspiring interview!
Name: Leland "Bubs" Williamson
Age: 43
City: San Jose
My favorite workout: At age 21, I was hurt in a motorcycle accident and became paraplegic. I've played basketball for the Golden State Warriors wheelchair basketball team for 15 years. Yet, years ago I was looking for a different kind of workout that would get me out of my wheelchair, and I found it at Touchstone rock climbing studio (in San Jose). My climbing partner is showing me climbing techniques, how to do knots, tie ropes.
How often I exercise: I'm at the studio two or three nights a week and play basketball two days a week. I also go running in my wheelchair. I can push 20 miles a week.
What motivates me: I'm building internal strength that the public doesn't see. And one day, I will climb Yosemite's El Capitan, not only achieving my goal, but being an inspiration to the community that supports me.
The hardest part is: Letting my muscles recuperate so I can do it again.
What it teaches me: I'm learning about the obstacles in life. Once you see it, work at it and get past it, you think that's all it was -- it was just an obstacle.

This chamomile-lemon myrtle blend from Numi is a nice variant on the chamomile soliflore but without going down the heavily trodden lemongrass, rosehip, hibiscus path.
The liquor is golden and shimmery, and the citrus flavor is closer to the white pith than to either the peel or the juice of a lemon. I cannot say that I have ever actually seen—or tasted, for that matter—lemon myrtle, but that's what it calls to mind in this blend. It also somehow makes the liquid more viscous than straight-up chamomile.

Toyota CEO Voices Concern on Yen, Europe, Slower U.S.
(Corrects to remove reference to auto demand in first and second paragraphs of story published June 4.)
June 4 (Bloomberg) -- Toyota Motor Corp. President Akio Toyoda said the appreciating yen, the European debt crisis and a slowing U.S. are among concerns facing Japan's car industry.
"In the short run, the European economy and a possible slowdown in the U.S. are a concern," though he's optimistic on the outlook for the year, Toyoda, speaking as chairman of the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association, told reporters in Tokyo today. The yen is also a "major concern," he said.
Japan's three-biggest carmakers have surrendered most of their January-to-March stock gains as concerns about the European debt crisis pushed up the value of the Japanese currency since mid-March. The yen, the worst-performing major currency in the first quarter, is the best performer this quarter, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Toyoda said he's still optimistic for the year as consumers replace their vehicles. Toyota is forecasting group sales to climb 21 percent to a record 9.58 million vehicles in 2012 after natural disasters in Japan and Thailand hobbled production last year.
"In Europe, where vehicle ownership is already very high, the cycle that drivers replace their old cars may slow down, but measures to avoid a major slowdown in the replacement cycle are taken in each country," Toyoda said. "In emerging markets, demand itself is growing, so volume itself will still grow."
Six Major Headwinds
In the U.S., light-vehicle sales in May ran at a 13.8 million seasonally adjusted annualized rate, according to data compiled by Autodata Corp. last week. The pace missed the 14.4 million average estimate of 14 analysts surveyed by Bloomberg and slid below 14 million for the first time this year.
Longer term, Toyoda said Japanese carmakers face six major headwinds: the strong domestic currency, stricter fuel-emission standards, lack of trade partnerships, high corporate taxes, heavy taxation on car purchases, and unstable power supply.
Asked about unprofitable Renesas Electronics Corp., the world's biggest maker of automotive chips, Toyoda said Japanese carmakers have been in talks with the nation's semiconductor companies to avoid supply disruptions as in the wake of last year's March 11 earthquake and tsunami. Renesas, which has never posted a profit since it was reorganized in 2010, is planning an overhaul that may involve 10,000 job cuts, a person briefed on the matter said May 25.
"The auto industry needs to seriously think and hold further close discussions with the Japanese semiconductor industry," Toyoda said, without naming any chipmakers.
On concerns over Europe, Toyoda said the downturn in the financial markets has preceded actual sales results.
China Demand
"In reality, compared with the world of finance, there is a slight gap in the timing of when things occur," Toyoda said. "For there to be any impacts in the real world, it takes time, unlike information, which comes in a very timely manner."
On China, Toyoda said demand may rebound in the longer term.
"Though there is concern over the Chinese economy's outlook, there is still sustainable growth in China, and the buyers are spreading to the middle class," Toyoda said.

i think its always safer and more fun to have a full name. that way your kid has options. they may hate or grow out of a nickname. it could even become the source of taunts, teasing, etc that they could leave behind more easily if they had a full name
full name i'd use Millerna
she was a secondary character, a princess, in the anime Escaflownei do not ignore the Rich Text toolbar provided me. i bold, italicize, enlarge, underline and CAPITALIZE for emphasis, individuality, and to capture attention among the endless Arial Standard Size Font that everyone else uses.

Does it mean that we deal with two different bulbs: one that needs chilling, and the other that doesn't.
Or the nurseries prepare them for the spring planting? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Hi levadia, Are you seeing them for sale at Lowe's or other big box stores maybe? Please see this thread. I just added a reply to it. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Should be planted in the fall
- Posted by gardengal48 PNW zone 8 (My Page) on Fri, Feb 20, 09 at 9:39
Dutch iris, iris x hollandica, are somewhat unique. They are late spring flowering bulbs, often not producing a bloom until the beginning of summer. And they do not need a significant chill period - they are one of the bulb types that are often recommended for warm climates where soil temperatures do not achieve very cold conditions. And like lilies, they are often offered for sale in both the spring AND the fall. Generally, late spring into early summer flowering bulbs - like Dutch iris, lilies, etc. - that you find available in stores at this time of year are not left-overs. They have been stored under careful conditions appropriate to the specific bulb type by the grower/supplier and are fresh on the store shelves. You shouldn't have any worries purchasing and planting now. |
Thanks gg48. Knowing that, I may treat myself to a few new ones if I find them reasonably priced locally. I guess maybe on line vendors just have a limited time that they have and prefer shipping them. Sue |
- Posted by gardengal48 PNW zone 8 (My Page) on Fri, Feb 20, 09 at 12:28
Yes, it is usually the larger wholesale suppliers that provide these to retail outlets, so smaller online speciality growers may not have the same resources to adequately store and market these bulbs for spring sales. |
I started this thread because here the bulbs planted early in the autumn or left in the ground after blooming grow their foliage in October-November. The winter kills the foliage, and the bulb die in May. I see that from now I must plant them only in April. Still, I would like to know how many hours/months of chill they require? I want to have my own bulbs and store them till April of the next year. Thank you for your answers |

The Law on Occupancy
VA Loan Guidelines
The law requires a veteran obtaining a VA guaranteed loan to certify that he or she intends to personally occupy the property as his or her home. As of the date of certification, the veteran must either (1) personally live in the property as his or her home, or (2) intend, upon completion of the loan and acquisition of the dwelling, to personally move into the property and use it as his or her home within 60 days after the loan closing (reasonable).
The above requirement applies to all types of VA guaranteed loans except Interest Rate Reduction Refinancing Loans (IRRRLs). For IRRRLs, the veteran need only certify that he or she previously occupied the property as his or her home.
Read About Veteran Mortgage News, Updates, and GuidelinesIf you have an existing VA home loan, you already know about the VA occupancy requirement for these loans. But some home owners are confused when it comes to these rules when it's time to refinance the mortgage.
Are you a member of the National Guard or are a Reservist interested in using your VA home loan benefits? Do you know what the basic eligibility requirements for using your VA loan benefits are?
Borrowers interested in buying a home with a new purchase VA mortgage are required to certify that they will live in the home personally and that the property is to be used for their personal occupancy.
This update to VA home loan rules includes a warning for same-sex married couples who may be eligible for VA mortgage loans. Since not all states recognize same-sex marriages, VA loan procedures and requirements may depend on the location of the borrower.
In general, VA loan rules don't allow for personal loans or other credit for uses other than buying a home. The VA loan program only guarantees new purchase home loans or refinancing loans.

29th Infantry Division (Wehrmacht)
29th German Infantry Division | |
Active | 1 October 1936 – 8 May 1945 |
Branch | Heer |
Type | Infantry |
Size | Division |
Nickname | Falcon Division |
Engagements |
The 29th Infantry Division was a unit of the German army created in the fall of 1936. It was based on the old Reichswehr 15th Infantry Regiment and drew its initial recruits from Thuringia. It was upgraded to 29th Motorized Infantry Division in the fall of 1937. The division was also known as the Falke-Division (Falcon Division).
Operational history[edit]
The division was mobilized in August 1939 and joined the XIV Corps of the German 10th Army for the invasion of Poland. It took part in the encirclement of Polish forces at Radom, Poland and committed the Massacre in Ciepielów.
In December 1939 it was transferred to the west. During the invasion of France it joined the 16th Army. As a strategic reserve it was used during the drive for the English Channel. After the Dunkirk evacuation it joined Guderians Panzergruppe (Heinz Guderian) for a speedy advance through eastern France. It was then employed in occupation duties in eastern France until early 1941.
Taking part in Operation Barbarossa it was attached to the German 4th Army and took part in a number of actions against isolated Soviet formations at Minsk, Smolensk and Bryansk. It was then sent to support Guderians Panzer Army near Tula. The division lost most of its vehicles and many killed and captured during the retreat from Moscow at Mordves, south of Kashira in the Moscow oblast.[1] In 1942 it spent the first 6 months in action near Orel and then in July 1942 was assigned to the German 6th Army as part of Army Group South. By August 1942 it was near Stalingrad and took part in the bitter battles in the Southern part of that city.
In early 1943 the division found itself surrounded and facing west against the Soviet forces. A report on 28 December noted that 6 of its 8 battalions were combat capable and it still had 30 guns, but only 3 operational anti-tank weapons. On 21 January 1943 it was attacked by the Soviet 21st Army, and destroyed as part of the Battle of Stalingrad.
It was then reconstituted in France in the early spring from the recently formed 345th Infantry Division. It was transferred to the Sicilian Campaign as the 29th Panzergrenadier Division for sometime in the defence of the Northern Route to Messina. Thereafter it fought in Italy at Salerno, Anzio, and San Pietro and was destroyed by the British in northern Italy just before the end of the war.
Commanding officers[edit]

Rated 4 out of 5?by Coach H Arbor lakes
Great staff and friendly people. The apartments are very nice if you live in an upgraded one and have a lot of space. Rent is a little high especially based on location in town and surrounding housing. I could see myself leaving if/when prices increase. No reflection on staff however... they are great, easy to get ahold of and also to work with. Best of 4 other apartment complexes that I have lived in around town.
I do wish I felt more of a presence of the courtesy officer! And also everyone?s mail is located in the front of the complex which can sometimes be a minor inconvenience. But most importantly happy living thus far!

Rated 5 out of 5?by No Doze Very pleased!
I couldn't be happier with an apartment complex. First of all, the staff is awesome! I love how they organize resident get-togethers; how they decorate the Welcoming Office; how they help with their tenants concerns ( I had an issue a while back that was solved very quickly when I brought it to the staff's attention).
And hats off to the maintenance/grounds keeping crew. I'm still amazed at how gorgeous this property is!
It has been a LONG time since I've lived in an apartment, but I am so glad to have chosen this one.

Rated 4 out of 5?by Current renter Rent increases
I like living at Arbor Lakes and the main issues I see are the fact that the parking rules aren't enforced and the rent goes up every year. I realize costs go up for the aparment complex management and owners, but the rent increases shouldn't be yearly. I have been told that other complexes don't raise the rates every year.

Rated 4 out of 5?by Mannie Really nice
These are really nice apartments. We live in the largest newest apartment. I wish there was more storage but it feels like a home more than an apartment. Staff is very friendly. Maintenance service isn't quit as good. They show up but because Arbor Lakes is so big it takes awhile to get service. Prices could be a little less expensive especially for the pet fee.

Scotland: Nine uncapped players in squad for South Africa tour
Interim Scotland head coach Scott Johnson has named nine uncapped players in his squad for the summer tour of South Africa.
Johnson, who led Scotland in this year's Six Nations campaign, will take up the role of director of rugby after the tour.
The squad contains 14 Glasgow players, nine from Edinburgh and eight exiles.
Sean Maitland, Richie Gray and Stuart Hogg are absent on British and Irish Lions duty.
"First up, it's a strong squad designed to win Test matches against quality opposition," said Johnson.
"We are taking the opportunity to have a look at some players and want to assess what they're like at this level.
"We need to be able to find out whether players who've done the business for their clubs can replicate that form in international footy.
"We also want to enable certain players who are known to us - for example Nick De Luca and Max Evans - to have the sort of off-season physical preparation that they've not had for a few years because of the demands of touring schedules."
Steven Lawrie, fellow hooker Pat MacArthur and lock Tim Swinson are the new call-ups in the pack.
Alex Dunbar, Peter Horne, Peter Murchie and Tommy Seymour of Warriors, along with Edinburgh full-back Greig Tonks and Saracens wing Duncan Taylor are the fresh faces in the backs.
Five of the new players - Lawrie, Swinson, Dunbar, Tonks and Taylor were part of the Scotland A squad which defeated England Saxons in February .
Scotland leave for South Africa on 31 May and play their first match of a quadrangular tournament, against Samoa, on 8 June.
The Scots face the host nation a week later, with the tournament final and 3rd/4th place match on 22 June.
Scotland squad
Backs: Alex Dunbar (Glasgow Warriors), Tom Heathcote (Bath Rugby), Peter Horne, Ruaridh Jackson (both Glasgow Warriors), Greig Laidlaw (Edinburgh Rugby), Sean Lamont, Peter Murchie, Henry Pyrgos (all Glasgow Warriors), Matt Scott (Edinburgh Rugby), Tommy Seymour (Glasgow Warriors), Duncan Taylor (Saracens), Greig Tonks and Tim Visser (both Edinburgh Rugby)
Forwards: John Barclay (Glasgow Warriors), Johnnie Beattie (Montpellier), Kelly Brown (Saracens) (captain), Geoff Cross, David Denton (both Edinburgh Rugby), Alasdair Dickinson (Sale Sharks), Ross Ford, Grant Gilchrist (both Edinburgh Rugby), Ryan Grant (Glasgow Warriors), Jim Hamilton (Gloucester Rugby), Alastair Kellock (Glasgow Warriors), Steven Lawrie (Edinburgh Rugby), Moray Low, Pat MacArthur (both Glasgow Warriors), Euan Murray (Worcester Warriors), Alasdair Strokosch (Perpignan), Tim Swinson and Ryan Wilson (both Glasgow Warriors).

Looks a good strong squad but I wouldn't have Dickinson anywhere near the pitch. He is a good mobile prop who gets about the park but he can't scrummage. Jon welsh would have been better.also I would start with euan Murray at tight head with low in the bench -

A few weeks ago, while attending the American Heart Association meeting in Orlando, I met with my friend and colleague Steven Smith, who has just taken on the position of Executive Director of the Translational Research Institute for Metabolism and Diabetes, Florida Hospital and Burnham Institute.
This week, Steven penned a most interesting essay for the New England Journal of Medicine, in which he discusses potential downsides of a low-carb diet. Most of his argument is based on a recent study that showed progresson of artherosclerotic plaques with a low-carb diet in apolipoprotein E-deficient mice, a model commonly used to study arteriosclerosis.
It turns out that the same article was recently also discussed on OBESITY PANACEA, an obesity blog run by Peter Janiszewski and Travis Saunders, two PhD students, who work in obesity research and are very active members of the Canadian Obesity Network.
As they point out, the two key possibilities that Steven presents in his article are that increased level of free fatty acids in the blood (released from insulin resistant fat cells and implicated in the initiation of inflammatory processes) or a reduced level of circulating endothelial progenitor cells (produced in bone marrow and help maintain the health of the blood vessels), both possible effects of a low-carb diet, could explain these detrimental effects, but I will leave it to OBESITY PANACEA to explain…

December 11th, 2009 at 9:54 am… aside from the science, one sure way to make people feel even more like 'not' exercising is to put them on a low carb or no carb plan.
Tired, irritable, lethargic… not the makings for getting more active!
Thanks Arya!

Thanks for mentioning Peter's post! As we've said before, this site was one of the main reasons we began blogging ourselves (and we continue to be avid readers), so it's a real pleasure to know that you're reading our work!
Take care,
Beth says:
December 11th, 2009 at 8:05 pmAs you can tell from the comments over on Obesity Panacea, there is some skepticism about the research that Dr. Smith referenced in his editorial. The issue seems to be the usefulness of making any conclusions based on a high-fat diet and apoE-/- mice.
Here are a couple of links that provide more detail:

.....all the rest are a bonus. Usually try for a June tomato to set the tone for the season, and Stupice came through again. Nothing else ripe yet, but a couple are blushing and all of our plants have set fruit except the Hawaiian Pineapple which I'm assuming will be late like most bicolors. Sorry for the late post, should have posted this a week ago, but have been very busy. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Looks lovely! My bicolors Big Rainbow and Nature Riddle finally set some fruits, now about dime size. |
If the Hawaiian Pineapple doesn't pan out, Big Rainbow or Northern Bicolor are next on my list. |

Nice color and shape and looks tasty, ED. Is it a potato leaf ? I was hoping to have a ripe one for The Fourth. But did not happened. Just two days later one started getting blush. Actually now there are several of them on Early Girl. |

Summaries are excerpted from the source articles; the featured article follows the summary section. A recommended "site of the day" will also appear occasionally following the summaries.
1//The Independent, UK
A former diplomat has revealed that the British mission to the United Nations opposed the policy of regime change in Iraq but was ordered by London to change its position in the lead-up to war. The disclosure was made to MPs yesterday by Carne Ross, a member of the mission who resigned in protest at the Iraq war. He told the Foreign Affairs Committee that the US government was repeatedly warned by British diplomats that Iraq would fall apart if Saddam Hussein was toppled. But from mid-2002 instructions were received to change that view to fall in with the Bush administration. Speaking in public for the first time since he left the diplomatic service two years ago, Mr Ross also confirmed suspicions that the Prime Minister made up his mind months before the Iraq invasion in March 2003 that the war was going to happen and British troops would take part. Mr Ross said when he was serving in the embassy in Afghanistan, as early as April 2002, British officials there knew troops were being held back in readiness for the Iraq invasion. He claimed that when official documents from the Foreign Office are made public, they will prove that the view of British officials, repeatedly conveyed to the Americans, was that overthrowing Saddam Hussein would cause chaos.

Sit Down for Change and Stand Up for Peace - Day 3
I haven't met anyone who likes to go to funerals. Attending a funeral must be one of the last things anyone of us would ever choose to do.

Subject: Bush Admits He's a Liar. The Media Yawns.
Last week Bush looked us in the eye and brazenly lied when he avowed not to replace Rumsfeld. Yesterday he admitted he misled us for political reasons. This is a perfect example of what is wrong with this man - he's a liar and is completely out of touch with reality. Far from helping the Republicans, his support of Rumsfeld only convinced more voters that he is delusional.

Kyle James, the son of Kansas City Mayor Sly James, has been booked into the Johnson County jail to serve a 30-day sentence for violating his probation.
The probation links back to a 2009 DUI case. Kyle James was placed on probation after having been granted diversion in the case. His probation was revoked after he was charged with disorderly conduct in Kansas City, Kan., last spring.
The mayor's office referred comment to Kyle James' attorney.

An interesting group of 1911 pistol modifications.
The work is being done by D&L Sports.
Notice the relief cuts on the top and sides of the frame rails where the sand and grit are able to "get out the way" of proper slide function.
That makes lots of sense to me.
The cuts into the side faces of the trigger and the serrations on the barrel hood should help also.
An innovative set of modifications to help battle harden a pistol carried in a nasty, dirty, environment.
I would probably finish it off with internal and external Electroless Nickel.
Link To The D&L Sports Web Site. They do really neat, nice custom work.

Tired of mini-vans and SUV's for the family? this has been an amazing family vehicle..and a large dvd player and it is like a movie theater on wheels. My 4 kids love to ride in it and long trips are no longer a "are we there yet?" marathon. Great for mom and dad to get up and move around the vehicle and attend to little people's needs. clean up is a breeze...with the bench seats you can clean it out with a leaf blower! The bench seats also accomidate long lumber with ease. Driver and passenger seats are very adjustable and comfortable.

Can superheavy elements (such as Z=116 or 118) be formed in a supernova? Can we observe them?
It is theorized that an island of nuclear stability exists in the 114-116 region of atomic mass. (Note by Sara: I think you mean atomic number.) I assume that even though we can't find such elements in our neighborhood, they may be produced in the supernova of a sufficiently large star.
My questions are as follows:
1. Does a theoretical formulation exist which can predict the isotope yields of elements for the supernova of a given stellar mass?
The elements with atomic numbers greater than that of iron are made in a variety of processes, notably s-process (s for slow) and r-process (r for rapid) neutron capture. The way it works is this: you start out with a seed atom, say (56,26)Fe. You're in a region of high neutron flux (e.g. a supernova), so neutrons start to pile up on your atom. After you collect 6 neutrons, your atom becomes (62,26)Fe, which is unstable to beta decay on a time scale (about 1 minute, in this case) shorter than the time between neutron captures. Before it can collect any more neutrons, it beta decays to (62,27)Co, which beta decays to (62,28)Ni, which is stable. Now neutrons start to collect on the Ni, and so it goes, stepping through the periodic table. When the atomic number or mass number gets too high, however, neutron capture induces fission. Whether the island of stability can be reached therefore depends on the maximum atomic number that can support the r-process described above without induced fission occuring. Once the island of stability was predicted, people started writing lots of papers saying both yes, no and maybe to the question of whether the island of stability could be reached by the r-process. The field settled at a solid "maybe" before it petered out. So, in answer to your question, no--people have yet to determine whether the stable superheavy elements are formed at all. It's a matter of the nature of the universe, rather than one finding a star that's massive enough. (Of course, the scenario I described is not the only possibility--it is possible that a binary system of a neutron star and a black hole would be a good place to form super-heavies, but I still have 3 questions left to answer so I'd better not get into that! At any rate, no one has really made a granite case that it's possible anywhere {except for a man-made accelerator}, so it's "maybe"'s across the board.)
2. If so, can a prediction be made of the likelihood of finding stable super-heavy elements (114-116) in the universe? Has that already been done?
The lifetimes have been painstakingly predicted, but as the answer to #1 pointed out it, has yet to be proven whether these guys are formed at all, much less at what rates. Without that, you can't tell.
3. Do we know what to look for? (can we predict the spectral properties of these postulated isotopes)
Actually, predicting the chemistry of the superheavy elements is a whole neat field of its own--it turns out that when the atomic number is as high as that, you need some pretty fancy quantum mechanics to get it right. And if you then observe the element, you can see whether your fancy quantum mechanics got it right, or if it might need to be revised. People have done their best to predict everything down to the shoe sizes of these elements.
4. If so, is anyone looking?
Absolutely--and search actually does takes place within the bounds of the solar system. The material that makes up the solar system has already been through the stellar life cycle, so if superheavy elements were produced in supernovae, they could be found in our neighborhood (so many "super"'s--scientists can really lack originality sometimes). Rather than trying to detect radiation from the superheavies (which is unlikely), people have checked meteorites for evidence of cosmic rays made of superheavy elements and searched in samples from Earth and its moon, with no conclusive results.
As a final note, I should point out that there has been a lot of success sythesizing these elements--they've made Z=110, 112, 114, and 116, and the 1/2-life of one of their isotopes of 114 was about 30 sec. (You may have heard about the big scandal involving Z=116 and 118 a few years back, but another group did actually make 116 after that. As far as I know, no one's gotten 118 yet.)

Holy cow, I wrote a book!
Many years ago, I visited the office of a colleague who worked on Internet Explorer in order to work on some problem or other. As we investigated the issue, we took notes on a 5"×7" tear-off notepad which bore the logo Forms³.
My colleague then pointed out to me that we were taking notes on the most expensive notepads in Microsoft history.
Forms³ (pronounced "forms-cubed") was the code name for the project that was the precursor to Trident, the layout engine that powers Internet Explorer. As I recall the story as it was told to me, project management thought it would be cool to have custom notepads made for their project. The people responsible for converting this idea into reality designed a logo, laid it out, and found a vendor to produce the notepads. But there was some sort of misunderstanding (maybe the asked for too many colors? didn't order enough notepads to trigger the bulk discount?), and the price for the notepads ended up being something ridiculous like $10 for a 50-page notepad.
That's how the most expensive notepads in Microsoft history came to be.
Bonus chatter: Oh, by the way, the word "precursor" I used up there? Yeah, that was a euphemism for "cancelled (but used as a learning opportunity)." Microsoft engineers are fond of black humor when it comes to software (especially software made by Microsoft) as a way of coping with adversity, and after the Forms³ project was cancelled, there was a subculture of engineers who morbidly called it Forms tubed.
I dreamed that I was living in a nursing home in some Brazil-like dystopic future.
In this future, people had become so horribly disfigured that they wore flesh-colored suits under their clothes all the time just so they would look good "naked". This vanity extended only to people under the age of around 40. The old people in the home were just your average old people, with spotted, wrinkly skin. Nothing particularly ugly about them; just your average old people. In the dream, I was my current age, but I was living in the home anyway, probably because I became prematurely senile.
A dentist spontaneously appeared to give me a futuristic dental procedure. ("Hey, how'd you get here and what is that zappy thing in my mouth?" Did I mention that I was senile?) After she was done, the dentist said, "I fixed your back four teeth."
"You made them last longer?" I asked.
"No, they'll fail at about the same time as before. They'll just fail differently now."
"What did you do?" I asked.
"I'd rather not say. You can look in the mirror."
With trepidation, I looked in the mirror. My eyes were no good, so I had to ask somebody to tell me what happened.
"Dear God, she installed leeches in your mouth! Mind you, she did a really nice job, getting them to criss-cross like that."
Bonus details: The dentist and dental assistant were hideously disfigured, and I did not notice until later that each had one arm and one stump. The dentist's and assistant's stumps snapped together like a garden hose, making them a grotesque conjoined dental crew.
Today's Little Program takes the symbolic name for a shell property and returns a string suitable for display to the end-user, translated into the user's specified display language.
#include <windows.h> #include <ole2.h> #include <propsys.h> #include <propkey.h> #include <atlbase.h> #include <atlalloc.h> int __cdecl wmain(int argc, PWSTR argv[]) { CCoInitialize init; if (SUCCEEDED(init) && argc == 2) { CComPtr<IPropertyDescription> spdesc; if (SUCCEEDED(PSGetPropertyDescriptionByName( argv[1], IID_PPV_ARGS(&spdesc)))) { CComHeapPtr<wchar_t> spszName; if (SUCCEEDED(spdesc->GetDisplayName(&spszName))) { wprintf(L"%ls\n", static_cast<PWSTR>(spszName)); } } } return 0; }
Run this program with the string System.Music.AlbumArtist on the command line, and the result is the message Album artist on English-language systems.
The actual workings of the program is pretty straightward. We ask the property system for an interface that describes the property name, and ask that interface to give us the display name, which we print out.
Nothing fancy here. The trick is just knowing that the function exists in the first place.
In 2010, a group of scam artists pretended that they were making a film, appropriately titled A Landscape of Lies. They did this so that they could claim over £2.7 million in tax credits intended to boost the British film industry. Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs began to suspect something was up when no apparent progress was being made on the project and the film company's "office" was an empty room. The scammers tried to make the project look legitimate by actually making a movie for £84,000 and releasing it on DVD. (You can watch the trailer here.) The fake movie was convincing enough to trick one film festival into giving it an award (which it later had to take back.)
Related: The claimed DHS-based television show turns out also to have been a scam.
Well, first of all, what's so wrong with that? You have to jump through a lot of hoops when you are in an unusual situation. But by definition, most people are not in an unusual situation, so it's an instance of the Pay for Play principle: The simple case should be easy, and it's okay for the complicated case to be hard. (It's usually difficult to make the complicated case easy; that's why it's called the complicated case.)
The complexity mostly comes from managing the general-purpose PROC_THREAD_ATTRIBUTE_LIST, which is used for things other than just controlling inherited handles. It's a generic way of passing up to N additional parameters to CreateProcess without having to create 2ᴺ different variations of CreateProcess.
The CreateProcessWithExplicitHandles function was just one of the N special-purpose functions that the PROC_THREAD_ATTRIBUTE_LIST tried to avoid having to create. And the special-purpose function naturally takes the special-purpose case and applies the general solution to it. It's complicated because you are now doing something complicated.
That said, here's one attempt to make it less complicated: By putting all the complicated stuff closer to the complicated function:
typedef struct PROCTHREADATTRIBUTE { DWORD_PTR Attribute; PVOID lpValue; SIZE_T cbSize; } PROCTHREADATTRIBUTE; BOOL CreateProcessWithAttributes( __in_opt LPCTSTR lpApplicationName, __inout_opt LPTSTR lpCommandLine, __in_opt LPSECURITY_ATTRIBUTES lpProcessAttributes, __in_opt LPSECURITY_ATTRIBUTES lpThreadAttributes, __in BOOL bInheritHandles, __in DWORD dwCreationFlags, __in_opt LPVOID lpEnvironment, __in_opt LPCTSTR lpCurrentDirectory, __in LPSTARTUPINFO lpStartupInfo, __out LPPROCESS_INFORMATION lpProcessInformation, // here is the new stuff __in DWORD cAttributes, __in_ecount(cAttributes) const PROCTHREADATTRIBUTE rgAttributes[]) { BOOL fSuccess; BOOL fInitialized = FALSE; SIZE_T size = 0; LPPROC_THREAD_ATTRIBUTE_LIST lpAttributeList = NULL; fSuccess = InitializeProcThreadAttributeList(NULL, cAttributes, 0, &size) || GetLastError() == ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER; if (fSuccess) { lpAttributeList = reinterpret_cast<LPPROC_THREAD_ATTRIBUTE_LIST> (HeapAlloc(GetProcessHeap(), 0, size)); fSuccess = lpAttributeList != NULL; } if (fSuccess) { fSuccess = InitializeProcThreadAttributeList(lpAttributeList, cAttributes, 0, &size); } if (fSuccess) { fInitialized = TRUE; for (DWORD index = 0; index < cAttributes && fSuccess; index++) { fSuccess = UpdateProcThreadAttribute(lpAttributeList, 0, rgAttributes[index].Attribute, rgAttributes[index].lpValue, rgAttributes[index].cbSize, NULL, NULL); } } if (fSuccess) { STARTUPINFOEX info; ZeroMemory(&info, sizeof(info)); info.StartupInfo = *lpStartupInfo; info.StartupInfo.cb = sizeof(info); info.lpAttributeList = lpAttributeList; fSuccess = CreateProcess(lpApplicationName, lpCommandLine, lpProcessAttributes, lpThreadAttributes, bInheritHandles, dwCreationFlags | EXTENDED_STARTUPINFO_PRESENT, lpEnvironment, lpCurrentDirectory, &info.StartupInfo, lpProcessInformation); } if (fInitialized) DeleteProcThreadAttributeList(lpAttributeList); if (lpAttributeList) HeapFree(GetProcessHeap(), 0, lpAttributeList); return fSuccess; }
There, now the complexity is there because you're a generic complex function, so you have no reason to complain.
A caller of this function might go like this:
HANDLE handles[2] = { handle1, handle2 }; const PROCTHREADATTRIBUTE attributes[] = { { PROC_THREAD_ATTRIBUTE_HANDLE_LIST, handles, sizeof(handles), }, }; fSuccess = CreateProcessWithAttributes( lpApplicationName, lpCommandLine, lpProcessAttributes, lpThreadAttributes, bInheritHandles, dwCreationFlags, lpEnvironment, lpCurrentDirectory, lpStartupInfo, lpProcessInformation, ARRAYSIZE(attributes), attributes);
Adam hates the "chained success" style and prefers the "goto" style; on the other hand, other people hate gotos. So to be fair, I will choose a coding style that nobody likes. That way everybody is equally unhappy.
BOOL CreateProcessWithAttributes( __in_opt LPCTSTR lpApplicationName, __inout_opt LPTSTR lpCommandLine, __in_opt LPSECURITY_ATTRIBUTES lpProcessAttributes, __in_opt LPSECURITY_ATTRIBUTES lpThreadAttributes, __in BOOL bInheritHandles, __in DWORD dwCreationFlags, __in_opt LPVOID lpEnvironment, __in_opt LPCTSTR lpCurrentDirectory, __in LPSTARTUPINFO lpStartupInfo, __out LPPROCESS_INFORMATION lpProcessInformation, // here is the new stuff __in DWORD cAttributes, __in_ecount(cAttributes) const PROCTHREADATTRIBUTE rgAttributes[]) { BOOL fSuccess = FALSE; SIZE_T size = 0; if (InitializeProcThreadAttributeList(NULL, cAttributes, 0, &size) || GetLastError() == ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER) { LPPROC_THREAD_ATTRIBUTE_LIST lpAttributeList = reinterpret_cast<LPPROC_THREAD_ATTRIBUTE_LIST> (HeapAlloc(GetProcessHeap(), 0, size)); if (lpAttributeList != NULL) { if (InitializeProcThreadAttributeList(lpAttributeList, cAttributes, 0, &size)) { DWORD index; for (index = 0; index < cAttributes && UpdateProcThreadAttribute(lpAttributeList, 0, rgAttributes[index].Attribute, rgAttributes[index].lpValue, rgAttributes[index].cbSize, NULL, NULL); index++) { } if (index >= cAttributes) { STARTUPINFOEX info; ZeroMemory(&info, sizeof(info)); info.StartupInfo = *lpStartupInfo; info.StartupInfo.cb = sizeof(info); info.lpAttributeList = lpAttributeList; fSuccess = CreateProcess( lpApplicationName, lpCommandLine, lpProcessAttributes, lpThreadAttributes, bInheritHandles, dwCreationFlags | EXTENDED_STARTUPINFO_PRESENT, lpEnvironment, lpCurrentDirectory, &info.StartupInfo, lpProcessInformation); } DeleteProcThreadAttributeList(lpAttributeList); } HeapFree(GetProcessHeap(), 0, lpAttributeList); } } return fSuccess; }
Those who are really adventuresome could try a version of CreateProcessWithAttributes that uses varargs or std::initializer_list.
Is the InterlockedIncrement function broken? One person seemed to think so.
We're finding that the InterlockedIncrement is producing duplicate values. Are there are any know bugs in InterlockedIncrement?
Because of course when something doesn't work, it's because you are the victim of a vast conspiracy. There is a fundamental flaw in the InterlockedIncrement function that only you can see. You are not a crackpot.
LONG g_lNextAvailableId = 0; DWORD GetNextId() { // Increment atomically InterlockedIncrement(&g_lNextAvailableId); // Subtract 1 from the current value to get the value // before the increment occurred. return (DWORD)g_lNextAvailableId - 1; }
Recall that InterlockedIncrement function increments a value atomically and returns the incremented value. If you are interested in the result of the increment, you need to use the return value directly and not try to read the variable you incremented, because that variable may have been modified by another thread in the interim.
Consider what happens when two threads call GetNextId simultaneously (or nearly so). Suppose the initial value of g_lNextAvailableId is 4.
Result: Both calls to GetNextId return 5. Interpretation: "InterlockedIncrement is broken."
Actually, InterlockedIncrement is working just fine. What happened is that the code threw away the unique information that InterlockedIncrement returned and instead went back to the shared variable, even though the shared variable changed its value in the meantime.
Since this code cares about the result of the increment, it needs to use the value returned by InterlockedIncrement.
DWORD GetNextId() { // Increment atomically and subtract 1 from the // incremented value to get the value before the // increment occurred. return (DWORD)InterlockedIncrement(&g_lNextAvailableId) - 1; }
Exercise: Criticize this implementation of IUnknown::Release:
STDMETHODIMP_(ULONG) CObject::Release() { InterlockedDecrement(&m_cRef); if (m_cRef == 0) { delete this; return 0; } return m_cRef; }
Here are some strange but legal declarations in C/C++:
int typedef a; short unsigned typedef b;
By convention, the typedef keyword comes at the beginning of the line, but this is not actually required by the language. The above declarations are equivalent to
typedef int a; typedef short unsigned b;
The C language (but not C++) also permits you to say typedef without actually defining a type!
typedef enum { c }; // legal in C, not C++
In the above case, the typedef is ignored, and it's the same as just declaring the enum the plain boring way.
enum { c };
Other weird things you can do with typedef in C:
typedef; typedef int; typedef int short;
None of the above statements do anything, but they are technically legal in pre-C89 versions of the C language. They are just alternate manifestations of the quirk in the grammar that permits you to say typedef without actually defining a type. (In C89, this loophole was closed: Clause 6.7 Constraint 2 requires that "A declaration shall declare at least a declarator, a tag, or the members of an enumeration.")
That last example of typedef int short; is particularly misleading, since at first glance it sounds like it's redefining the short data type. But then you realize that int short and short int are equivalent, and this is just an empty declaration of the short int data type. It doesn't actually widen your shorts. If you need to widen your shorts, go see a tailor.¹
typedef int short;
int short
short int
Note that just because it's legal doesn't mean it's recommended. You should probably stick to using typedef the way most people use it, unless you're looking to enter the IOCCC.
¹ The primary purpose of this article was to tell that one stupid joke. And it's not even my joke!
In standard English, a tenet is a fundamental belief held by a group of people. At Microsoft, the term tenet is used as a generalization of what we previously called taxes: Things that everybody has to do in order to be a good software citizen.
While taxes are typically very low-level and specific, like supporting roaming user profiles or multiple monitors, tenets are broader concepts like reliability or compatibility or API design and documentation.
The word doesn't escape the halls of Microsoft very often. Most of the citations I have are internal, but here's a case where Jon DeVaan let it slip into a keynote address:
And together we've improved reliability on Vista huge amount. And when you look at the compatibility tenet that we have for Windows 7, all of this work translates immediately to the reliability of Windows 7 on day one.
Occasionally, somebody will confuse the word tenet with the superficially-similar tenant.
We still have many bugs marked as High tenant impact.
Bad pun alert: I guess a bug could be high tenant impact if it's a bedbug or lice.
I dreamed that two of my colleagues were playing a game based on pantomiming Unicode code points. One of them got LOW QUOTATION MARK, and the other got a variety of ARROW POINTING NORTHEAST, ARROW POINTING EAST, ARROW POINTING SOUTHWEST.
I wonder how you would pantomime ZERO WIDTH NON-JOINER.
Today's Little Program prints the current selection in all open Explorer windows. (This is an alternative to the C++ version that involves a ridiculous amount of typing.)
var shellWindows = new ActiveXObject("Shell.Application").Windows(); for (var i = 0; i < shellWindows.Count; i++) { var w = shellWindows.Item(i); WScript.StdOut.WriteLine(w.LocationName); var sel = w.Document.SelectedItems(); for (var j = 0; j < sel.Count; j++) { var item = sel.Item(j); WScript.StdOut.WriteLine(item.Name); WScript.StdOut.WriteLine(item.Path); } }
I have no idea why you would want to do this, but there you have it. (If you want the focused item rather than the selection, then get the FocusedItem property.)
Okay, maybe you can use this as a quick-and-dirty way to get the parsing name for a shell item: Open an Explorer window, select the item you are interested in, then run the script to see what gets printed out as the Path.

LOUISVILLE, Colo., June 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Replidyne, Inc. (Nasdaq: RDYN) today announced that it has decided to terminate its license agreement with Asubio Pharma Co., Ltd. for faropenem medoxomil (faropenem). In conjunction with this decision, the Company also announced that it has terminated its supply agreement with Asubio Pharma Co., Ltd. and Nippon Soda Co. Ltd. for production of faropenem. These decisions were made as a result of the Company being unable to secure a partner for the faropenem program. As previously announced, Replidyne had discontinued clinical development of faropenem pending the outcome of discussions with potential partners for the program.
As a result of today's decision, the Company expects to incur charges of up to Japanese Yen 440 million (approximately $4.1 million), consisting of a license termination fee of up to Japanese Yen 375 million (approximately $3.5 million) to Asubio Pharma Co., Ltd. and the reimbursement of engineering costs under its supply agreement of up to Japanese Yen 65 (approximately $0.6 million) to Nippon Soda Co. Ltd. Replidyne will also pay Nippon Soda Co. Ltd. Japanese Yen 99 million (approximately $0.9 million) for delay compensation related to the period from January 1, 2008 through the termination of its supply agreement.
"We are clearly disappointed that we have been unable to identify a
partner for the faropenem program," stated Kenneth J. Collins, President
and Chief Executive Officer of Replidyne. "We have decided to terminate
this program in order to preserve cash and focus our attention on our
previously discussed strategic initiatives and our C. difficile Infection
(CDI) program and novel anti-infective programs based on DNA replication

For the cake
baking soda ½ tsp
espresso 125ml, cooled
butter 175g, softened
caster sugar 225g
free range eggs 3
self-raising flour 250g
soured cream 115g
For the icing
butter 100g
icing sugar 1½ cups
strong espresso 1-2 tbsp
For the coating
white chocolate
Grease and line a 10-inch round cake tin. Dissolve the baking soda in the cooled espresso and set aside. Beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, adding a tablespoon of flour with each egg to stop the mixture curdling. Stir in the sour cream then fold in the remaining flour and cooled espresso. Pour the mixture into the prepared cake tin.
Bake at 180C for 35 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean. Cool the cake in the tin for 10 minutes and then turn it out on to a wire rack to cool completely.
Beat the icing ingredients together until smooth.
Crumble the cake into crumbs and add the icing a tablespoon at a time, mixing until you have a fudge-like consistency. Mould the mixture into small shapes, then chill them in the fridge for an hour to firm up.
Melt white chocolate or candy melts in a bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Dip the pop sticks into the melted chocolate then insert into each cake pop. Leave this to set for 15 minutes then dip the cake pops into the melted chocolate and turn to coat. Decorate to taste.

I am a mother to 2 wonderful little boys. I work outside the home and love my job. My new year's resolution (started in Feb.) was to try at least one new recipe a week for my family of 4. DH will eat almost anything that I cook and seldom has a negative comment. We usually decide if a recipe is a "keeper", "keeper with modifications", or "don't ever try again". Fortunately, there are very few in the third category. My philosphy on cooking is that a recipe is only a guideline. Much like life, have fun! Add your own personal touches!
Cooking is a stress reliever for me and I am very humbled by any compliments I may receive. My mother taught me what to do (and what not to do) in the kitchen. She was a SAHM and how she kept our family of 7 on track, is still beyond comprehension. I owe my cooking successes to my mom and am very thankful and excited that I get to still share my cooking stories/recipes with her. Much like my mother, measuring is not really my thing unless I am baking (where it is really important). I hope that you will try the recipes that I have shared and hope they fall into the "keeper" category for you. Keep cooking!

Harry Connick, Jr. – Ding Dong! The Witch Is Dead lyrics
Yes, let the joyous news be spread
The Wicked Old Witch at last is dead!!!!
Below - below - below.
Yo-ho, let's open up and sing and ring the bells out.
Ding Dong the merry-oh, sing it high, sing it low.
