Common English Bible (CEB) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 Now there was a certain man from Ramathaim, a Zuphite from the highlands of Ephraim, whose name was Elkanah. He was from the tribe of Ephraim, and he was the son of Jeroham son of Elihu son of Tohu son of Zuph. | 1 There was a certain man from Ramathaim, a Zuphite from the hill country of Ephraim, whose name was Elkanah son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite. |
2 Elkanah had two wives, one named Hannah and the other named Peninnah. Peninnah had children, but Hannah didn't. | 2 He had two wives; one was called Hannah and the other Peninnah. Peninnah had children, but Hannah had none. |
3 Every year this man would leave his town to worship and sacrifice to the LORD of heavenly forces in Shiloh, where Eli's two sons Hophni and Phinehas were the LORD's priests. | 3 Year after year this man went up from his town to worship and sacrifice to the LORD Almighty at Shiloh, where Hophni and Phinehas, the two sons of Eli, were priests of the LORD. |
4 Whenever he sacrificed, Elkanah would give parts of the sacrifice to his wife Peninnah and to all her sons and daughters. | 4 Whenever the day came for Elkanah to sacrifice, he would give portions of the meat to his wife Peninnah and to all her sons and daughters. |
5 But he would give only one part of it to Hannah, though he loved her, because the LORD had kept her from conceiving. | 5 But to Hannah he gave a double portion because he loved her, and the LORD had closed her womb. |
6 And because the LORD had kept Hannah from conceiving, her rival would make fun of her mercilessly, just to bother her. | 6 And because the LORD had closed her womb, her rival kept provoking her in order to irritate her. |
7 So that is what took place year after year. Whenever Hannah went to the Lord's house, Peninnah would make fun of her. Then she would cry and wouldn't eat anything. | 7 This went on year after year. Whenever Hannah went up to the house of the LORD, her rival provoked her till she wept and would not eat. |
8 "Hannah, why are you crying?" her husband Elkanah would say to her. "Why won't you eat? Why are you so sad? Aren't I worth more to you than ten sons?" | 8 Elkanah her husband would say to her, "Hannah, why are you weeping? Why don't you eat? Why are you downhearted? Don't I mean more to you than ten sons?" |
9 One time, after eating and drinking in Shiloh, Hannah got up and presented herself before the LORD. (Now Eli the priest was sitting in the chair by the doorpost of the LORD's temple.) | 9 Once when they had finished eating and drinking in Shiloh, Hannah stood up. Now Eli the priest was sitting on a chair by the doorpost of the LORD's temple. |
10 Hannah was very upset and couldn't stop crying as she prayed to the LORD. | 10 In bitterness of soul Hannah wept much and prayed to the LORD. |
11 Then she made this promise: "LORD of heavenly forces, just look at your servant's pain and remember me! Don't forget your servant! Give her a boy! Then I'll give him to the LORD for his entire life. No razor will ever touch his head." | 11 And she made a vow, saying, "O LORD Almighty, if you will only look upon your servant's misery and remember me, and not forget your servant but give her a son, then I will give him to the LORD for all the days of his life, and no razor will ever be used on his head." |
12 As she kept praying before the LORD, Eli watched her mouth. | 12 As she kept on praying to the LORD, Eli observed her mouth. |
13 Now Hannah was praying in her heart; her lips were moving, but her voice was silent, so Eli thought she was drunk. | 13 Hannah was praying in her heart, and her lips were moving but her voice was not heard. Eli thought she was drunk |
14 "How long will you act like a drunk? Sober up!" Eli told her. | 14 and said to her, "How long will you keep on getting drunk? Get rid of your wine." |
15 "No sir!" Hannah replied. "I'm just a very sad woman. I haven't had any wine or beer but have been pouring out my heart to the LORD. | 15 "Not so, my lord," Hannah replied, "I am a woman who is deeply troubled. I have not been drinking wine or beer; I was pouring out my soul to the LORD. |
16 Don't think your servant is some good-for-nothing woman. This whole time I've been praying out of my great worry and trouble!" | 16 Do not take your servant for a wicked woman; I have been praying here out of my great anguish and grief." |
17 Eli responded, "Then go in peace. And may the God of Israel give you what you've asked from him." | 17 Eli answered, "Go in peace, and may the God of Israel grant you what you have asked of him." |
18 "Please think well of me, your servant," Hannah said. Then the woman went on her way, ate some food, and wasn't sad any longer. | 18 She said, "May your servant find favor in your eyes." Then she went her way and ate something, and her face was no longer downcast. |
19 They got up early the next morning and worshipped the LORD. Then they went back home to Ramah. Elkanah had sex with his wife Hannah, and the LORD remembered her. | 19 Early the next morning they arose and worshiped before the LORD and then went back to their home at Ramah. Elkanah lay with Hannah his wife, and the LORD remembered her. |
20 So in the course of time, Hannah conceived and gave birth to a son. She named him Samuel, which means "I asked the LORD for him." | 20 So in the course of time Hannah conceived and gave birth to a son. She named him Samuel, saying, "Because I asked the LORD for him." |
21 When Elkanah and all his household went up to make the annual sacrifice and keep his solemn promise, | 21 When the man Elkanah went up with all his family to offer the annual sacrifice to the LORD and to fulfill his vow, |
22 Hannah didn't go. "I'll bring the boy when he is weaned," she told her husband, "so he can be presented to the LORD and stay there permanently. I will offer him as a nazirite forever." | 22 Hannah did not go. She said to her husband, "After the boy is weaned, I will take him and present him before the LORD, and he will live there always." |
23 "Do what seems best to you," said her husband Elkanah. "Stay here until you've weaned him. But may the LORD bring to pass what you've promised." So the woman stayed home and nursed her son until she had weaned him. | 23 "Do what seems best to you," Elkanah her husband told her. "Stay here until you have weaned him; only may the LORD make good his word." So the woman stayed at home and nursed her son until she had weaned him. |
24 When he had been weaned and was still very young, Hannah took him, along with a three-year-old bull, an ephah of flour, and a jar of wine, and brought him to the LORD's house at Shiloh. | 24 After he was weaned, she took the boy with her, young as he was, along with a three-year-old bull, an ephah of flour and a skin of wine, and brought him to the house of the LORD at Shiloh. |
25 They slaughtered the bull, then brought the boy to Eli. | 25 When they had slaughtered the bull, they brought the boy to Eli, |
26 "Excuse me, sir!" Hannah said. "As surely as you live, sir, I am the woman who stood here next to you, praying to the LORD. | 26 and she said to him, "As surely as you live, my lord, I am the woman who stood here beside you praying to the LORD. |
27 I prayed for this boy, and the LORD gave me what I asked from him. | 27 I prayed for this child, and the LORD has granted me what I asked of him. |
28 So now I give this boy back to the LORD. As long as he lives, he is given to the LORD." Then they worshipped there before the LORD. | 28 So now I give him to the LORD. For his whole life he will be given over to the LORD." And he worshiped the LORD there. |

PHP Components: Shipping Unit Tests With Your Component
Posted by Stuart Herbert on August 15th, 2011 in Examples, phix, Toolbox.
In my Beyond Frameworks talk, I explained how a component-based architecture can help answer some of the important (i.e. expensive!) questions you might face when creating long-lived apps that rely on a PHP framework. In this series of blog posts, I'm going to look at how to go about creating and working with components.
I'm now going under the bonnet of our components, and looking at the different file roles that the PEAR installer expects to find when we distribute our component as a PEAR-compatible package. One of the most important file roles allows you to ship your tests with your package – and it's vital that this is something that you get in the habit of doing routinely.
Test Your Code, And Ship Your Tests
If you want other developers to re-use your code in their projects, it is essential that you earn their trust. Trust has to be earned over time, by establishing a track record of dependability. There are many things you need to do to establish such a reputation, such as semantic versioning to flag backwards-compatibility breaks, and writing unit tests to prove that your code works as expected.
Although the PEAR Installer has long supported shipping unit test code, to date the PHP community hasn't really embraced this, and it is still very rare for a PEAR package to include unit tests when downloaded. This is also compounded by unfortunate legacy choices in some Linux distributions (ubuntu bug, fedora bug), where unit test code currently ends up being installed under the same directory tree as the main code from the PEAR packages – something that only really matters since the PHP Community started to adopt PSR-0 as the standard for autoloading.
What Are PHP Tests?
PHP tests (the 'test' file role supported by the PEAR Installer) are executable tests. There is currently no formal standard for these tests; however, PHPUnit has emerged as the community's de facto standard for unit tests, and is the approach that the PHP components skeleton supports out of the box to make life much easier for you.
Just as important as shipping tests is making sure that it is extremely easy for someone who knows nothing about your code to safely and reliably execute any tests that you ship. The components skeleton handles much of this for you, by including a PHPUnit bootstrap.php file, and a build.xml file with full instructions on how to execute the tests.
However, it is important that you write your tests in a way that doesn't rely on anything that your users won't have installed or configured.
Where Do Tests Go Inside Your Component's Structure?
If we look at the CommandLineLibrary component, you'll find that the unit test files live in the src/tests/unit-tests/ folder:
Important notes:
- The folder structure underneath src/tests/unit-tests exactly matches the folder structure for both PHP scripts and PHP files under the src/ folder.
- Each unit test script is designed for PSR-0 autoloading, just like the PHP scripts that they test.
- Each unit test script ends in the word 'Test'. This is a convention that is supported in IDEs such as Netbeans.
Where Does The PEAR Installer Install The Tests?
When you use the PEAR installer to install your component:
$ pear install phix/CommandLineLib
all of the test files get installed into /usr/share/php/tests/<package-name> on your computer:
The PEAR installer's behaviour here is different to both command-line scripts and PHP code; the installer creates a sub-folder with the name of your package, and then installs your test files into this sub-folder, and not into the main test_dir folder. This isn't a problem in practice, as long as you are aware of the different behaviour here.
The test file src/php/unit-tests/Phix_Project/CommandLineLib/CommandLineParserTest.php therefore ends up installed onto your computer as /usr/share/php/tests/CommandLineLib/Phix_Project/CommandLineLib/CommandLineParserTest.php.
There's always the possibility that some Linux distros (and Mac OS X) will install doc files into a different folder. You can see where the PEAR installer will put these files on your computer by running:
$ sudo pear config-show | grep test_dir PEAR test directory test_dir /usr/share/php/tests
What About Other Kinds Of Test Code?
In the PHP component skeleton, the src/tests/functional-tests folder is available for anyone who wants to add any automated testing to prove that their app works. Selenium is a tool that might help with this.
There's also the src/tests/integration-tests folder available for anyone who wants to maintain a strict separation between unit tests (which, technically, should prove that a single class works as required) and integration tests (which, technically, should prove that a collection of classes work together as required, especially across system boundaries).
At the time of writing, the component skeleton doesn't do anything with code inside these folders. Patches are most welcome!

August 15th, 2011 at 8:34 amYou can run the unit tests from the package via PEAR, too:
$ pear run-tests -up package_name
(requires a AllTests.php file, though)
Daniel O'Connor says:
August 15th, 2011 at 11:59 pmOne of the things many authors within PEAR aren't 100% clear on is where tests should be runnable from. The defacto feeling within PEAR is that your package should not need to be installed to enable tests.
I tend towards saying tests should always be executed from the top level src directory.
Say you have a component living in My/Component.php
$ cd My_Component/trunk/src/
$ phpunit tests/Your test would simply require_once "My/Component.php"; and execute happily. When installed by the PEAR installer, it would locate My/Component.php in the include path and also execute.
This avoids any need to do:
require_once dirname(__FILE__) . /path/to/my/trunk/src/My/Component.php
… and ensures that when you are in the top level directory; your tests are running on your local svn version (not a different, installed version).The one problem I see and don't tend to have a great answer for is components with dependencies – the installer solves this problem; but there are few reliable ways to check that all dependencies are available and installed when running your tests from version control directly.
Mechanisms like svn:externals can go some way towards fixing this; or pre-installing your dependencies; but neither is a clean solution. -
Stuart Herbert says:
August 16th, 2011 at 4:04 pm@Christian thanks. That doesn't seem to be documented anywhere in PEAR's documentation?
Hari K T says:
August 16th, 2011 at 4:33 pmI feel the structure is mainly because the pear keeps the packages there.
The one thing I loved in Aura is we have the phpunit coming inside the system where we can write tests and run tests for the components. We don't need to go and install phpunit and all those stuffs. Also we don't want pear :) . Just download and put in the package folder. The system acts as a full stack framework also.
For more information
Stuart Herbert says:
August 16th, 2011 at 9:32 pmI deliberately chose to base this work on compatibility with the PEAR installer, for all its faults, because interoperability is very important if we're going to create a PHP components eco-system. 'Just download' suggests little-to-no dependency management, which might be fine in a single-stack framework, but isn't really the way that other component ecosystems (such as CPAN and Gems) have gone.

On paper, then, everything looks pretty rosy for Ford's star seller. You're looking at class-leading fuel economy and capability, along with almost limitless configurations of cab size, bed length, and interior trim. But then you get behind the wheel, and the new F-150 doesn't feel significantly different from the 2008 model. Engineers boast about weight reduction (up to 100 pounds less than the previous truck, depending on configuration), but dropping 100 pounds from a 5000-plus-pound behemoth doesn't exactly lend it razor-sharp reflexes.
If you're a die-hard fan of Ford pickups, the 2009 F-150 is everything you'd expect, but the bottom line is that it isn't that much different from the '08 model. Everything from the design to the powertrain has evolved slightly, but there aren't any brilliant advances beneath the sheetmetal. Whether that's enough to keep the F-150 in the running for the sales crown remains to be seen.
The Specs
On sale: Now
price: $21,320
Engines: 4.6L V-8, 248/292 hp, 294/320 lb-ft; 5.4L V-8, 310 hp, 365 lb-ft
Drive: Rear- or 4-wheel
Every Mile Per Gallon Matters
Automakers are scrambling to deliver better fuel economy across the board, even in pickup trucks. According to Ford, fuel economy moved from tenth place to third in a list of buyer considerations when purchasing a new truck.
Last summer, General Motors introduced the 2009 Xtra Fuel Economy GMC Sierra and Chevy Silverado, which use a combination of cylinder deactivation, taller final-drive gearing, slight aerodynamic enhancements, low-rolling-resistance tires, and reduced mass to squeeze EPA ratings of 15 mpg city and 21 mpg highway from a 5.3-liter V-8 with a six-speed automatic.
A month later, Ford conveniently released information on the Superior Fuel Economy F-150, which is equipped with a 4.6-liter 24-valve V-8, a six-speed automatic transmission, and taller gearing. Its EPA fuel economy ratings match those of the extrafrugal GM trucks.
Both the XFE and SFE trucks are available only as rear-wheel-drive crew cabs and feature prominent badges to identify them as new models, which qualifies them for a standalone EPA rating (since there are similar models with the same drivetrain and worse fuel economy ratings).

StartPage Guard User Reviews

"This Program Works Great!"
Version: StartPage Guard 2.52
Works when nothing else does.
Once in a while it doesn't work for me.
I bought my present computer from a Chinese lady, works fine and it was a good deal. Only one problem with it--the IE home page was set to qq.com, a Chinese scumware site. I tried changing the home page to Yahoo, first through IE Tools, then through Spywareblaster Tools, then through Spybot S & D, and finally through Hijack This...nothing doing, every time I rebooted, my home page was reset to qq. In desperation, I even tried resetting the home page through regedit (not wise, for someone who doesn't know exactly what they're doing). Nothing worked. Every time I rebooted, right back to the @%&$! qq scumbags! Finally, I found StartPage Guard, and this simple program did the trick! It's the only thing that has worked for me. Once in a while, when I open IE, the qq home page appears, but then I just close my browser and then it opens in Yahoo again. Thank goodness for StartPage Guard!
"Perfect protection against malware"
Version: StartPage Guard 2.52
Protects your startpage at any time and also your search pages are safe now.
Easy interface and easy to use.
When you select "Check when Windows start" it does so automatically.
I tried to turn it off. But most of the time it just came back.
I think I finally managed to turn it off.
That's the only minor con that I could find.
"Needs some work !!"
Version: StartPage Guard 2.52
This product will make sure your start page is correct if you set it up that way. The problem is when your ISP browser uses for example MSN Explorer and your ISP, in my case Juno uses a modified Explorer. The Juno Explorer will load anyway. I'm sure other ISP's with browsers will do the same.
"I love it!"
Version: StartPage Guard 2.52
A cute little program that WORKS! so easy to configure and will STOP anyone from changing your startpage - I still run this program even though I have winpatrol and all the others as I know if any of them fail - this little lady will stop em dead. She even shoots the hijacker with her rifle if threatened! Looks great 2.
Version: StartPage Guard 2.52
It worked right away! i definitly reccomend this AND IT'S FREE! it is so awesome.
"StartPage Guard Worked INSTANTLY"
Version: StartPage Guard 2.52
My homepage constantly reverted to some "off shore" internet site. StartPage cured the problem immediately.
"Basic and a reliable little tool"
Version: StartPage Guard 2.52
I can recommend this programme I have been using it for 5 or 6 months. User-friendly and uncomplicated. No problems at all. It does work. You may get Directories like e.g. MSN Messenger and (Yahoo Messenger which I installed from choice) popping up when you logon, but its not because they may have hijacked your chosen Browser setting, it's because they are probably ticked in your Setup at Startup, from where you need to untick them.
"Good program"
Version: StartPage Guard 2.52
Effective against homepage hijackers.

Born in 12th hour, he's 12 on 12th in '12
FREMONT - Aaron Rogers turns 12 today.
His parents didn't think too much about this day when he was born 12 years ago on Dec. 12, 2000.
It wasn't until last year's birthday that his mom, Sharon, began looking ahead and realized that his 12th birthday would arrive on 12/12/12.
It's the perfect day to celebrate for a boy who was also born in the 12th hour - 12:50 p.m. to be exact.
Aaron never thought of 12 as his lucky number before this day arrived.
"I do now," he said as he took a break from his fifth-grade classes at Ellis School to talk about the number 12.
The Fremont boy isn't the only New Hampshire-born kid celebrating 12th birthdays today.
According to the state's Division of Vital Records Administration, 56 babies were born in New Hampshire hospitals on Dec. 12, 2000.
"There are a lot of 12s," Aaron's mother said.
After today, it'll take 88 years before all the numbers in the day, month, and year are the same, 01/01/01. Dates like 07/07/07, 10/10/10 and 11/11/11 are long gone now.
So with his big day here, how does Aaron plan to celebrate? Surprisingly, he's decided not to invite 12 friends over to eat up a dozen birthday cupcakes.
"I just want to have my family," he said.
That includes his parents and older sisters, Nicole Sherborne, Kelley Langdon, and Jill Rogers. His older brother Derek lives in Texas and won't be able to make it.
Aaron is an easy kid to please and never asks for much. He told his parents that he wants shepherd's pie for his birthday dinner with chocolate cake for dessert.
"I'm not a greedy kid," he said.
Hard to believe he didn't want ambrosia salad for dessert. After all, 12/12/12 is National Ambrosia Day.
Aaron couldn't think of anything he'd like for a birthday gift to mark the milestone. He said he's not into iPods and stuff like that, but he has taken an interest in the piano and hopes his parents can find him a local piano teacher so he can take lessons.
Aaron doesn't know it yet, but his parents have planned a birthday bash during the week of Christmas.
"Having a birthday land on a date like this is very unusual, so his mother and I set out a couple of weeks ago planning a very special day for our very special boy, complete with the numeral 12," said his father, Richard.
Aaron has talked a little bit about his birthday with his friends. "They're glad and a little jealous, maybe," he said. A girl in his class shares the same birthday, but she's only turning 11 this year, he said.
While the number 12 is a big one for Aaron, he has no plans to pick that number when he's old enough to play the lottery.
"My dad says it's just a waste of money," he said.
Twelve-year-olds aren't the only ones celebrating today. Some couples have also chosen to tie the knot, but New Hampshire wedding planners say 12/12/12 is not as popular as other dates in recent years.
"We've had a few, but it's not as big as your 07/07/07," said Renee Fortin of Modern Bride and Formal Shop in Bedford.
Since we're talking numbers, it's important to note that at age 12, Aaron is also an uncle to 10-month-old Sienna Rogers and 8-month-old Nolan Langdon. He'll be an uncle again in February. The due date is Feb. 4, but with any luck, the baby will arrive on Feb. 12 at 12:12 p.m.
Time will tell, and with any luck, the world won't end on 12/22/12.

Not worth it (138 comments)
I agree the commercials suck. Also, having to watch the same commercials over and over again make me want to NOT buy that product because of the extreme annoyance that is now associated with the product. HOWEVER, between Hulu Plus, Netflix, and an OTA antenna I can satisfy all my TV needs without paying for the greater evil, Comcast or DirecTV. So whereas I hate the commercial breaks (and fortunately, some shows have none) I like the small step in cord-cutting that Hulu Plus provides me. Also, even though there are a lot of commercials, there are still fewer commercials while watching Hulu Plus than there are watching it on cable.

Age has nothing to do with it (515 comments)
First off, I'm now 37 and I've been in IT for over 15 years. I can also say that I had similar feelings when I was 16 and first starting with PCs. For instance, I stuck with old MFM/RLL drives for awhile because I knew that technology but didn't know IDE, which was already a few years old. I later started learning to move with technology and have continued to do so.
I presently work at the Federal government and have had similar frustrations. It really has little to do with age and more to do with mentality. People get stuck in their old ways and are reluctant to change. My boss was that way in the beginning but, fortunately, he had an open enough mind where when I started slowly introducing newer technologies, like virtualization, he came to accept them. He also saw the wisdom in standardizing such things as backups and operating systems so that we weren't having to juggle 5-6 different platforms to get stuff done.
That said, standards and procedures exist for a reason. Someone like the OP is likely to be a lot more reckless when it comes to poking around and changing things. Just because something is newer doesn't necessarily mean it will fit the environment and/or application. Also, there are numerous other factors to consider such as vendor support, upgrade paths, downtime, etc. In a typical environment you will see not see newer technologies (outside of maybe a lab environment) until they've been tried and tested in the industry.

BeOS Haiku (448 comments)
Another OS From which we have to choose from Why do we need this? Seriously, why hasn't BeOS (and OS/2 for that matter) just disappeared. As if the numerous Linux and BSD distros didn't make the market confusing enough. I'm constantly reminded of the scene in Caesar's Palace in Monty Python The Life of Brian. You know, where Brian tries to separate the People's Front of Judea and the Campaign to Free Galilee. When he says they need to unite against the common enemy they all shout "The Judean People's Front!" Then Brian has to say "No, no...the Romans!" That is what these OS wars are about. We need to unite against Microsoft, the dominant power. We already have several OS alternatives out there, Mac, Linux, BSD. Why throw another in the mix which will never be supported mainstream?
It is the end of an era (405 comments)
I am no fan of Apple as a company, but I do appreciate what they've done. The same thing holds true for Microsoft and Bill Gates. Apple was doing well because of Steve Jobs, then went into a decline when he left. Because of his return Apple enjoys the popularity and success it holds today.
Bill Gates has left Microsoft (sort of) and Microsoft is rapidly declining. Hewlett and Packard left HP and look where that company is now. These were all visionaries and good businessmen. You can't just replace someone like that. ESPECIALLY not with a financial person (CFO, etc.) Finance people know one thing, numbers.
In order for a company like that to continue it's momentum it needs an Engineer (software, hardware or otherwise) with charisma and good business sense. That is unlikely to happen as these people generally create their own companies and become the next Apple or Microsoft.
Hmmm, do we see a trend coming on? (80 comments)
With advertising revenues dropping we could see this as a new trend for accessing content. Of course, many sites are popular because they are free so this would likely reduce traffic. I could see how this would be useful for a site like Fark, though, who already has a paying crowd.
Of course, the big users I can see are porn sites.
A la carte pricing debate (379 comments)
Maybe this will bring up the good old a la carte debate again. I, personally, resent having to pay $50+ a month when my entire family watches about 10 cable channels total. I looked into 4DTV a couple years ago but it didn't seem viable (limited DVR capabilities, lack of HD, still have to point to multiple satellites, etc.)
Do other Slashdotters have an a la carte TV solution that doesn't entail torrents, watching on the web/computer or illegal downloads?
They should use accelerometers instead of GPS (713 comments)
I don't think GPS is the way to go. If they were to use accelerometers it would provide the same information with the following advantages:
Lower cost
Would not be dependant on a GPS signal
Greatly minimizes the privacy issue
As an Oregon resident, privacy is the biggest concern for me. Also, how long until they decide to start using this to trap speeders? With accelerometers it virtually eliminates the privacy issue because they would never know where you are, just how fast you were going.
Grammar police: mass nouns vs count nouns (656 comments)
Sorry, but this bugged me. Less is a mass noun, the tag should read "onefewerexcuse" or, even more appropriately, "oneexcusefewer." Now back to your regularly scheduled postings
LOGO! (962 comments)
It is partially in jest, but LOGO was created to teach kids how to program. Real world wise, though, I would say C or PHP. They are both currently used, relatively easy to learn and require no cost to get started.

Luceplan Mix 31.2" H Table Lamp
Mix from Luceplan is a sophisticated reading lamp with a lightweight frame that uses the new LED Chip on Board technology. A series of multicolor diodes produce an intense, warm and pleasing lighting with very low consumption (only 5W) and an average duration of some 50,000 hours (against 2,000 hours of a normal halogen bulb). One colored filter in the head allows for the regulation of the color temperature. When it is switched off, its profile is illuminated with a blue light so that the lamp can be found even in the dark.

About the Manufacturer
The beauty of efficiency. In the years leading up to the foundation of Luceplan, Riccardo Sarfatti consolidated his instinctive entrepreneurial flair while working first with his father at Arteluce, the historic firm founded by Gino Sarfatter at the end of World War II, and later with Flos, the prestigious Brescia-based company that took over arteluce in the early 1970s.In 1978 Paolo Rizzato, Riccardo Sarfatti and Sandra Severi, who had been together at the Politecnico University in Milan, founded Luceplan, concentrating initially on the design and making of prestige interior lighting. Luceplan specialized in projects for particularly challenging and high quality situations and locations, including numerous historic buildings.
Luceplan continued to forge ahead by insisting on a clear idea of a business in which design is not "styling", that is to say not "added design", but rather the outcome of a continuous and coordinated exchange of different company functions. In the projects which Luceplan puts into production, there is a constant search for artistic simplicity as the solution to complexity.
Luceplan lighting immediately conveys a sense that they are the product of inspired, incessant research. Impervious to the dictates of fashion, these artistic strokes nevertheless reflect contemporary trends and elements. Luceplan is dedicated to promoting experimentation, innovation and technology, improved performance standards, inventiveness and beauty.

Serial Shooter defendant Dale Hausner admitted in cross-examination this week to lying various times throughout his life.
He lied to federal agents investigating an arson fire. He lied to his girlfriend about his drug use. He lied to his employer about his whereabouts. He lied to police investigating a vandalism case. He lied to a Tribune reporter in an interview.
Hausner, who is charged with eight counts of first-degree murder in connection with a 14-month spree, said on the witness stand Wednesday that he was truthful with Phoenix officers investigating the series of crimes, however.
"As far as intentionally lying to them, as they had done to me, I never did," Hausner said.
Hausner took the stand Monday, but on Wednesday, deputy Maricopa County attorney Vince Imbordino got his first whack at him.
Imbordino seemed to rattle Hausner almost immediately, and put him on the defensive by bringing up his sexual preferences.
Hausner had mentioned in previous testimony that co-defendant Sam Dieteman, who gave damning testimony against him last month, was bisexual. He also testified previously that Ron Horton, a deceased witness who first steered investigators toward Dieteman and Hausner, also was bisexual.
"Actually, it's not Sam Dieteman who's bisexual; it's you," Imbordino said.
Hausner glared at the prosecutor, sat back in his chair and replied, "I like women and I like a lot of them."
Hausner said that his ex-wife's claim that he told her he was bisexual was "slander during a divorce."
Imbordino went on to ask Hausner whether he was sexually interested in Dieteman because he never let him out of his sight.
Hausner denied it.
Hausner has portrayed himself as a ladies man, saying he had to keep track in his day planner whom he had slept with so he wouldn't be confused when he spoke with the various women he dated.
Hausner also said he was with Marianne Lescher, a principal in the Kyrene Elementary School District, on the nights of the first nine shootings, four of which were murders. He described her as a girlfriend.
Contacted by the Tribune on Wednesday, Lescher declined comment, saying she expected to testify next week.
Dieteman pleaded guilty to two counts of first-degree murder and testified against Hausner last month, giving meticulous details about each of the 18 shootings he said he participated in with Hausner.
Hausner is charged with 87 crimes in connection with the 35 shootings, one stabbing and two arsons between May 2005 and July 2006 in Phoenix, the West Valley, Mesa and Scottsdale.
Dieteman said that he and Hausner would drive around late at night looking for pedestrians and bicyclists to gun down with a shotgun.
Hausner denied committing any crimes during questioning from his attorney and provided alibis for each one.
Imbordino took a swipe at Hausner's testimony that he was an attentive and caring father who selflessly attended to his ill daughter. Imbordino played a videotape of Hausner's police interview in which he complained about paying child support because he bought all the "crap," such as medical supplies, special foods and other child care supplies she needed.
Imbordino also exposed inconsistencies between Hausner's statements to police on Aug. 4, 2006 — when he was arrested — and his earlier testimony.
Hausner testified this week that a collection of news clippings of the Serial Shooter spree found in his Mesa apartment were Dieteman's and that he was putting them in binders for him.
During his police interview, he said the clippings could be found in his apartment.
On Wednesday, he said he didn't mention to police that they were Dieteman's because police didn't ask to whom they belonged.
Hausner also gave two different stories for a note found in his apartment after his arrest.
It read: "He who asks about the $5 bill is a homicidal maniac, arsonist, thief, destroyer of property, drug using god among mortals."
In testimony, he said it was a pickup line Dieteman wanted inscribed on a T-shirt he planned to wear to bars. The plan was for Dieteman to pin a $5 bill to his shirt and then expose the inscription when someone asked about it.
In September 2006, Hausner told a Tribune reporter that he was shocked by the note. He also complained to the Tribune that the media was portraying him in a bad light. On Wednesday, he said he lied to the Tribune for strategic reasons and to improve his image.
"I absolutely lied to a reporter, yes I did," Hausner said.

- after watching the IPL 5 tourny I think a great build on Rengar is: Heart of gold Kindlegem spirit visage Phage --> build into triforce Sunfire Cape(maybe another health armor item instead) boots the early game spirit visage gives tankiness and helps with his life gain substain. the triforce gives him the burst he needs and movement. the other items are all cheap give cooldown and health. definitely a great approach. maybe switch out the kinglede gem for a brutalizer

I was wondering what type of window you have above your bathtub? If you have pictures it would be great!!! |
Follow-Up Postings:
This is the window over the bath from the outside. BTW, our bath is a jetted tub that does NOT have a shower. |
Here is ours: |
- Posted by treasuretheday (My Page) on Sat, Apr 27, 13 at 7:20
We used to have a pair of casement windows above the tub. We still have to climb into the tub to raise and lower the windows but it's wonderful being able to open the windows and blinds from the top for fresh air and sunshine while still retaining our privacy. |
- Posted by treasuretheday (My Page) on Sat, Apr 27, 13 at 7:30
I thought I read somewhere that when you have glass near a tub it will need to be safety glass for code. Any comments on that? Did you guys use safety glass. Everyones windows are beautiful. |
- Posted by live_wire_oak (My Page) on Sat, Apr 27, 13 at 12:00
Remember that a window in a tub area needs to be tempered glass for safety reasons. One minor slip, and it can make the difference in a trip to the minor emergency clinic for a twisted ankle rather than one to the emergency room for an arm sliced to the bone from breaking a regular glass window. |
yes, mine is safety glass |

Super Duper Science Club Presents: EMERGENCY!!! The Science behind ER Doctors and Ambulances
What's it like to be an ER Doctor? What's it like to drive an ambulance? What kind of equipment do you use? Join us as we hear from a local ER Doctor what her experiences in the ER are like. Then hear from local HEMSI EMTs and even take a peek inside of an ambulance.
This event is appropriate for children in grades 3rd- 5th.

Red barberry in my front yard was cut down a bit by the landscapers, and all the new growth is brilliant, hot, pink! So beautiful.
I know nothing about trimming shrubs, but these two guys are right next to the public sidewalk and need to be kept from arching over and snagging someone. I remember one landscaper saying to cut long limbs from the bottom. Makes sense. So how can I get this lovely

I'm not a shrub expert, but with most shrubs, you can trim out up to one/third of the older branches (from the bottom) every year for three years, and then you'll have a new shrub! You can watch for arching branches, and cut them back just enough so that they don't hurt the passers-by. Just my two cents worth, but I'm sure someone else will chime in with better advise. Julie |

Every software is expected to
Every software is expected to move towards development and innovation. This is one good move by HCL since they have made excellent changes and gave great additions to their features.

Jerome, thanks for your comment. I agree it's a strong move by HCL. And it needs to be - we expect the product development services space will grow in the next 3-5 years, but the really significant growth and profitability rates will be in the "PDS 2.0" space.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

was very much a referendum on Yuschenko as well as his "team", and quite
specifically the inability of that team to 1) clean up the country / fight
corruption 2) generate jobs 3) provide basic services or 4) do much other
than squabble.
The UkrRosEnergo deal, allowing the Mayor of Kiev to mismanage the capital
(constant traffic jams, uncompleted road construction and not cleaning the
streets for weeks after serious snowfall) and name calling with Timoshenko
brought about the election results. Had Yushenko executed on his promises
of cleaning up corruption, completed at least one highway construction
project or achieved some other tangible result, I believe he would be in
power today. His administrations incompetence was only highlighted by the
economic crisis, when more than 10 banks had all assets frozen, and even
citizens with insured deposits could not access their accounts for 60 or
more days.
Also, in 2006, the people on the ground feared that Party of the Regions
would steal their businesses and that corruption would actually increase
if Yanukovich were elected.
Yes, Yanukovich was discredited, but the Party of the Regions is a pretty
organized bunch. They held together, made key media acquisitions and
allowed Yuschenko to sink in his own swamp. Fortunately, so far the new
administration has improved traffic, completed a couple highways and
generally tried to get some results. There also seems to be an
anti-corruption drive, at least at the lower levels of government service.
I expect that the Party of the Regions will hold together. This is not
necessarily a consensus, as much as a fear to be outside.
It also seems to me that the Party of the Regions is not as Pro-Russian as
western media portray. To me, they seem more pragmatic on securing their
interests as Ukrainian business men, and keeping the Russian bear calmed
while securing new energy supplies, getting access to cheaper capital and
upgrading factories.
All the best,

Subject: Reply from Stratfor
Dear Mr. Kinsel:
In the United States it is frequently said that the election of Barak
Obama was not an endorsement of his policies but a repudiation of George
W. Bush personally. This is frequently said by people who do not want the
election interpreted as meaning that values they hold dear were defeated
by other values. But the fact was that Obama was elected and his election
bought with it not merely the repudiation of Bush as a person, but bought
to power a very different view of the world.
The Ukrainian election defeated not only a man, but also his view of the
world. It also bought to power a man who seemed to have been discredited
in the Orange Revolution, and this man bought with him his set of values.
Now, it might be said that he is not as secure politically as he needs to
be, and therefore the struggle is not over. It is difficult to read the
election as a repudiation of a man, but not of the things he believed in.
The Orange Revolution was about more than simply the principle of
democratic elections. It was also about Ukraine's place as a European
nation, its relation to its past and to Russia.
I would certainly concede that the future of Ukraine is not settled. I
find it hard to accept that the last election was simply a referendum on
one man. In the end, Ukrainians did not simply reject a man but elected
another one, one with a very different view of the world, even if the
principle of democracy survived.
My interest in the Ukraine is whether this government can create a stable
consensus, or whether Ukraine will swing back and forth between different
visions. But it seems to me a deeper issue than simply a referendum on
Yuschenko as a person.
My appreciation for your sharing your thoughts. I am grateful

Please don't hump my leg
It is a bit disturbing to me, however...
There have been many a suave, attractive, intelligent, seemingly intuitive men (and women) with whom I have had the pleasure of being atleast somewhat intimate...people I can't wait to atleast make out with because something about them makes me want to...well...get them in bed or in some other fun place.
ANYWAY...there seems to be a point somewhere in the make out process where...you lose a connection...it suddenly doesn't become a mutual process anymore and feeling this disconnection...you open your eyes to find this person, eyes closed, going at in on your leg. WHY? I am a hot girl. I am good in bed. Look at me. Don't hump my leg! It suddenly makes me VERY TURNED OFF. Good intimacy is not about you...it is about the other person. Don't be selfish. I guarantee I can do a lot more with my mouth than you can awkwardly bouncing around on my thigh and hip bone. I guarantee that there is wayyyyyy more fun between those thighs than on them. So don't blow your shot. Don't hump my leg. Just don't.

May be available in some of our shops
This Guide provides the steps to take to progress from being an ordinary place to work to being a "fabulous place to work". It is about the prevention of stress. The prevalence of stress in the workplace has hardly changed in years. By the time someone suffers degrees of stress, a massive amount of resources have been committed to compensate for the under performance that has been occurring whilst the person has been struggling with coping with stress. Stress is preventable. The processes involved transform organisations into places where people feel safe, happy energised, motivated and successful and the organisation achieves peak performance.

Snyder's-Lance, Inc. And Inventure Foods, Inc. Enter Distribution Agreement
CHARLOTTE, N.C., Oct. 3 , 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Snyder's-Lance, Inc. (Nasdaq-GS: LNCE) and Inventure Foods, Inc. (Nasdaq-GS:SNAK), today announced completion of a strategic distribution agreement that will expand the Snyder's-Lance route distribution system in Arizona and offer increased access by Inventure to the growing Snyder's-Lance national distribution network for their brands.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110411/CL80943LOGO)
The distribution agreement provides a unique opportunity for both Snyder's-Lance and Inventure. In recent years, Snyder's-Lance has developed its Direct Store Delivery ("DSD") network through a blend of selective acquisitions and organic growth. By entering into this agreement, Snyder's-Lance will expand its DSD network in the Southwestern U.S. and increase route volumes with new partner brands while Inventure's specialty food brands will benefit from wider distribution of a national DSD network of over 3,000 routes. Terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
The agreement provides that Snyder's-Lance will assume a number of independent business owner ("IBO") routes from Inventure in the Arizona area, which supports the Snyder's-Lance strategic plan to continue growing and strengthening its national DSD distribution network. At the same time, Inventure will receive access to the growing Snyder's-Lance distribution network with expanded opportunity as a key partner brand.

Moreover, Inventure product lines such as Boulder Canyon and Poore Brothers provide an opportunity for Snyder's-Lance to increase the scale and reach of our network, helping to grow route volumes across all brands while bringing the benefits of our DSD distribution system to both Inventure and our retail partners. Snyder's-Lance and Inventure have partnered together for approximately 15 years, distributing each company's products in their respective DSD networks. This new arrangement expands an already successful relationship." "We look forward to the support that this strategic agreement will provide our growing and important Boulder Canyon brands throughout the country," said Terry McDaniel, President and CEO of Inventure Foods.

2009 Mazda B-series
Last produced: Fall 2009
Total sold in 2010: 4
You might be wondering why we didn't include the Ford Ranger here, but with a reasonably healthy 7849 sold so far this year (more than the Flex!), the little truck that could is clearly still on someone's mind. Mazda's rebadge, however, doesn't have quite as much perseverance. Its thirty-seven-year run in the United States officially ended last year, and only four units have sold through February 28, 2010. Since the Ranger will stay around for at least another year, there's no need for you to overwhelm Mazda dealers by searching for the last few B-series, but we do mourn the passing of one of the last true compact pickups.
