Hi, I was wondering if anybody here new what the best willow tree species attracts the most variety of caterpillars for the West coast. I specifically want to attract Mourning cloaks and Western tiger swallowtails. Thanks, Nicholas |

Hi, last year I was looking for the same thing but was unable to find a specimen that would stay small enough. I know the swallowtail like the prunus family as well so I decided to forgo the willow and put the cherry in for them. I look forward to seeing responses to this thread. SCG |
Can't help Nicholas, I'm afraid. But as for SouthCountryGuy, i'm wondering whether it would be possible for you to grow willows by coppicing-basically, cutting off a tree to induce a lot of shoot growth. That keeps all the growth at a low level where you can see it and use it, and makes a large tree manageable in a small space. There was just an article published in the NABA magazine, Butterfly Gardener, which mentioned the technique as a way to grow a large tree in a smaller urban garden. Liz |

The Karnataka government will again go before the State power regulator seeking permission to impose a "green cess" on industries to raise funds to support the renewable energy initiatives.
Announcing this while participating in a seminar on "Renewable energy options in hotels, hospitals and technical institutions" organised by the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, the Karnataka Energy Department and the Karnataka Renewable Energy Development Limited in Bangalore on Friday, Additional Chief Secretary K. Jairaj said the State was planning to raise additional resources to the tune of Rs. 50 crore a year through the proposed cess.
Tariff petition
In the tariff petition filed before the Karnataka Electricity Regulatory Commission last year, the Bangalore Electricity Supply Company (Bescom) had proposed to levy a green cess of 5 paise a unit of power consumed by the Low Tension Industrial and Commercial consumers. But the commission had not considered such a proposal on the grounds that "such a levy is not a part of the tariff issue and hence it is outside the scope of the tariff order."
However, Mr. Jairaj told presspersons later that this time an exclusive proposal would be made before the commission regarding green cess. He made it clear that the exact quantum of cess to be levied on every unit of consumption was yet to be worked out this time.
The cess amount would be used for building infrastructure for renewable energy projects such as laying new power lines for evacuation of power, he said and pointed out that such a system was in practice in the neighbouring Maharashtra. The government had formed an empowered committee headed by the Chief Secretary to provide clearances for renewable energy projects.

France goalkeeper Hugo Lloris has urged his side to keep up their impressive form when they take on Nigeria in the second round of the World Cup on Monday, the Daily Star has reported.
Les Bleus hit eight goals in their opening two group stage matches, before drawing 0-0 with Ecuador to guarantee top spot in Group E. Karim Benzema in particular has impressed, scoring three goals in the tournament so far, while players such as Olivier Giroud, Moussa Sissoko and Mathieu Valbuena have also weighed in with goals.
They now take on a Nigeria side that has reached the knockout stages for the first time since 1998, and they ran Argentina close in their final group outing. And Lloris believes that his side cannot take anything for granted when they meet in Brasilia. He said: "Before the competition we were never labelled as one of the favourites.
"It's true we had some good matches in the group phase but it's like a new tournament now. You need a lot of energy and a lot of concentration at this stage if you want to get through. We will need to be focused and this kind of match will be decided on a detail so we will need to be vigilant right until the end.
"Nigeria are very powerful and this will be a physical challenge for us. They have a lot of skill going forward and also have a lot of pace."

EA has confirmed that there will be no mod tools for Battlefield 3.
Why? Because DICE's Frostbite 2 engine is too powerful to be messed around with, so keep your hands off.
EA senior VP Patrick Soderlund told German mag GameStar, "As of now, we are not going to make any modding tools."
"If you look at the Frostbite engine, and how complex it is, it's going to be very difficult for people to mod the game because of the nature of the set up of levels, of the destruction and all those things. It's quite tricky.
"So we think it's going to be too big of a challenge for people to make a mod."
We're sure there are plenty of you out there thinking "Challenge accepted."
Executive producer Patrick Bach said in February that DICE was still considering mod tools for Battlefield 3, but that if they were implemented they would be done in a different way to Battlefield 2.

The Time Is Now For HP
Hewlett-Packard's solution providers in the past 12 months have seen more than their share of ups and downs as the vendor moved to steady the company in the wake of two CEO changes in 2011 that resulted in wrenching shifts in direction, especially in regards to whether HP would or would not remain in the PC business.
The shifts in 2012 were no less dramatic, despite new CEO Meg Whitman's pledge early in the year to be the "steady hand on the tiller for this company." Whitman in 2012 had to deal with the departure of several top executives, nearly all of HP's top channel execs. She was also called on to deal with questions about the future of its PC business, its services business, and that incredibly expensive but supposedly scandal-ridden decision by her predecessor to acquire Autonomy.
Can the Good Ship HP right itself? Time will tell. It is a large enough company that sheer momentum will carry it through many of its trials. Turn the page and see how the company and its channels fared in the past year.

How to Deal With Bad Neighbours
Three Parts:Confronting the ProblemGetting Your Neighbors to ComplyTaking Drastic Measures
Your neighbors' dog barks between the hours of 3 and 5 A.M., their teenager's music rattles your windows on the weekends, and somehow their trash keeps ending up on your lawn. Finding an effective but non-aggressive way to deal with bad neighbors is ideal, so start by kindly asking them to be more mindful of their actions. If being sweet doesn't get you anywhere, you might have to take more drastic measures – like talking to a lawyer or calling the cops. See Step 1 to learn how to deal with your neighbors starting right now.
Part 1 of 3: Confronting the Problem
1Leave a friendly note. If you have difficulty reaching your neighbors or you simply don't like talking face to face, you can leave a note expressing your wishes.[1] Leaving a note can be a little risky, because there's a greater chance that it could be misinterpreted than there would be if you stated your concerns in person. It could be viewed as a rather passive-aggressive measure that puts your neighbors on the defensive. That said, sometimes leaving a note is the best option. Most people will feel a little embarrassed and immediately change their behavior to accommodate you.
- Make sure the note is friendly in tone. Tell your neighbor that you'd like to find a solution that works for everyone.
- If you're comfortable putting your phone number in the note and encouraging your neighbor to call you, do so. That way if your neighbor has any questions you can get them cleared up right away.
Ad -
2Try to talk it out. Have you tried the simplest method for getting what you want – simply speaking up and asking for it? Your discomfort might be completely obvious to you, but chances are your neighbors don't even know they're being a bother. While you're sitting there stewing and getting ready to boil over, they're happily playing their music or trampling your grass without realizing how angry it's making you. Instead of waiting until you're ready to blow and doing something passive aggressive, simply call up or visit your neighbors and request that they address the problem.
- Ask nicely, but make your point. Ask for exactly what you want instead of being vague and keeping them guessing. It's not fair to expect them to be able to read your mind and know your limits – you need to tell them what you want.
- Make sure that what you're asking for is fair, and be willing to compromise. While you might be happy to never again have to hear the teenage son practicing tuba, it's probably not practical to ask your neighbors to soundproof their garage. Figure out a compromise that keeps both of you happy.
3Form an alliance with other neighbors. If an issue is affecting you, chances are it's affecting everyone on the block or in the building. Talk with your other neighbors to find out if they're willing to have a group discussion with the neighbors at fault. There is strength in numbers, and being approached by an entire group instead of a single person could be what it takes to get the bad neighbors to change.
- This doesn't mean you and your neighbors should storm the bad neighbors' house or apartment – that could get out of hand and make the neighbor feel threatened. Instead, compose a note and have everyone sign it, or start a group email and have everyone chime in.
- For a face to face confrontation, invite everyone to your house or yard, and invite the bad neighbor over as well. Have a polite discussion during which everyone gets a chance to speak and express what solutions they would like to see.
4Consider starting to write everything down. If you've left a note, had a chat, your good neighbors have gotten involved, and still nothing is happen, you're in a sketchy situation. It may be in your best to start documenting your actions, just for good measure. That way, should any heated arguments crop up or legal measures get taken, you can accurately give proof of the peaceful strides you took initially.
- Consider writing down each time when you reached out about the problem (or when someone else you know did). Mark the date and time and a brief synopsis of what was done or said. This will be easy reference for later if you're ever accused of "jumping to conclusions" or "making mountains out of molehills."
Part 2 of 3: Getting Your Neighbors to Comply
1Get to know them better. Is your neighbor nameless and faceless, or do you actually know each other? It's a lot harder to care about someone you've never met, and resentment can build quickly when neighbors don't bother forming a relationship with each other. The best way to get what you want – some peace and quiet on the weekends, for example – might be to forge a relationship with your neighbor so you understand each other better and are more willing to be considerate. You don't have to end up as best friends, but seeing each other as people is a good start to increased neighborliness.
- Why not invite your neighbors over for a meal? Ask them to come over when you're having a summer cookout, or invite them for pancakes on a Saturday morning. Get to know each other before you make any requests.
- If inviting them into your space is a bit much, you could take over a bottle of wine or some home-baked cookies and introduce yourself.
2Behave in a neighborly way yourself. Make sure you aren't doing anything that could be getting on other people's nerves before you bring up the problem. You don't want your neighbors to have the leverage to simply fire back that you should take a look at your own irritating habits. Mow your lawn, don't play loud music, and be as considerate as you want your neighbors to be. Hopefully they'll follow your example and correct the problem without your having to intervene.
- Make sure you're not picking them out, either. If they play music at 3 AM, Ken and Janet three houses down shouldn't be able to get away with it themselves. Everyone in the immediate area needs to be held accountable or they could use that as an easy excuse to not change their habits.
3Offer to help out. Depending on what you're asking your neighbors to do, they might be more amenable if you offer to help them make it happen. For example, if you like a nice, neat yard and are tired of seeing their unkempt weeds all summer long, you could offer to help them get the yard back in shape. Don't offer to do more than you're actually up for, though, or you could find yourself doing your neighbors' yard work for free.
- Sometimes we have to put ourselves in others' shoes. Maybe your neighbor is single mom who can't afford childcare, so while she's at work her kids are running around. She certainly isn't asking to be yelled at – she's just trying to make ends meet. Try to find out what the situation is; maybe you could lend a hand.
4See if you're overreacting. Is it possible that you aren't being a patient neighbor? Living in a neighborhood means getting up in each other's business from time to time – it just can't be helped. Unless you want to live by yourself in the woods, you're going to encounter your neighbors' quirks. Think about whether or not it's possible that you're being a bit ornery about the whole thing.
- Of course, you have the right to enjoy where you live, and there are certain things you shouldn't put up with. Don't let something go if it's interfering with your health and happiness.
5Pick your battles. Don't give your neighbors a laundry list of problems you want them to address – it won't go over well. Figure out what you can live with and what must change, and only present your neighbors with problems that are driving you crazy. Once the main issues are solved, you can get to the smaller matters at a later date.[2]
- Come up with two lists: one that is the most doable for them and one that's the habits that annoy you the most. Whatever averages out to the top of both lists is the one that will make the most difference to you and be the most likely to happen.
Part 3 of 3: Taking Drastic Measures
1Document the problem you're facing. If you tried asking nicely and your neighbors weren't responsive, it's time to take more drastic measures. Begin by documenting the problem so that you can back yourself up if you have to involve the authorities. Take pictures of property damage, take video of parties that spill into your yard after midnight, save emails and notes, and so on. Basically, gather proof that your neighbors are trespassing or otherwise engaged in illegal activity.
- You may wish to inform your neighbors that you're doing this or "accidentally" get caught doing it. When they know you're hard on their trail, that may be the motivation they need to quit pulling those stunts.
2Call the landlord to complain. If you live in an apartment building, it's time to get the landlord involved. Call him or her and explain how your neighbor is disturbing the peace in your living space. Depending on the infraction, the landlord might decide that he or she has grounds to evict the bad neighbors. At the very least, the landlord should discuss the issue with the bad neighbors so you don't have to keep complaining.
- Landlords know that bad tenants make the whole apartment block not want to live there. You're not inconveniencing him or her – you're potentially saving him a whole bunch of worry when all the leases are up. No one wants to live there for another year thanks to them – it's unlikely you're the only one.
3Find out if they're breaking the law. If the bad neighbors still won't change, figure out what legal action is available to you. Get familiar with your local laws and determine whether your neighbor is breaking any. If your neighbor is in violation of any laws, you might be able to take action. Look up laws on the following:
- Trespassing
- Property destruction
- Noise violations
- Barking laws
- Laws regarding property maintenance
4Call the police or another authority. Getting the police involved is another way to shock your neighbors into changing.[3] If you find that they're violating a law, you can call the police to address the issue so you don't have to get involved. Reserve this measure for situations that are getting out of control, since you don't want to use emergency services to solve a minor dispute between neighbors.
- If the issue is loud music, call the non-emergency police number.
- For unkempt yards, call the Homeowners Association (where applicable) or the city nuisance abatement officer. Most cities have nuisance abatement, or code enforcement officers, who are responsible for maintaining code compliance.
5Inform the bad neighbors you're taking legal action. Once you've determined that the neighbors are indeed breaking a law, and you've collected some evidence to prove it, let them know that you plan to take legal action. You don't have to give details – just tell them that you're planning to take this to the next level. They probably won't want to get tangled up in legal issues, so just telling them that you're prepared to sue will probably make them decide to change.
- That is, if you're actually taking legal action. Don't be the boy who cried wolf. Use this as a last resort and mean it if you're going to say it. Otherwise they have no reason to take you seriously.
6Talk to a lawyer about your options. If you're willing to put your money where your mouth is, call a lawyer and figure out what you can do. You must decide whether solving the problem is worth the headache of legal fees and open contention with your neighbors. If you're set on getting this matter settled legally, work with your lawyer to file a lawsuit and potentially bring your neighbors to small claims court.
- If nothing else, you may be able to work out with your landlord to get out of your lease without breaking it illegally. If you've alerted him to the situation and he's done nothing about it, it certainly doesn't make him look good, so he may let you go – especially if you're going to get a lawyer involved. Consider this compromise instead of getting dragged into hours of court time and court fees that even you probably don't want to deal with.
We could really use your help!
core exercises?
pool tables?
hardwood floors?
- Check your local laws using the town website; sometimes local laws are published on "http://www.e-codes.generalcode.com". Armed with your city ordinances, you can request the police to enforce laws on blocked sidewalks, dog feces, etc.
- Do not be afraid to contact authorities. You won't be considered a tattletale if it's bothering most of the neighborhood.
- Put up a fence, if pets are your problem, then this will keep them out of your yard. If their yard looks horrible, put up a 4 foot (1.2 m), non-transparent fence.
- Stay on your own property, as trespassing will just incite them. Walking to someone's front door is allowed, but walking into a yard is illegal.
- The most important thing you should never do is threaten your neighbours, this will just make matters worst, keep your words to yourself.

I hope you feel bad about spending 3.9k on the bundle for a skin. Lets face it, about 10 of you did this. Nobody will feel sorry for you when Riot, a BUISNESS, cashes in on the other 5 million customers who want it now that she has been visually reworked. The discount for bundles based on content you already have has already been thrown around by Hipp. It will happen sooner or later.

Can I get malta extract from a grocery store or a wal-mart or a place like that, and if not is there anything I can substitute for the malt extract? Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
For beer, you'll need to find a local homebrew store or use mail order. Where do you live? Now, if you just want to make wine, Walmart has a lot of decent juice options.

PetSafe Big Dog Remote Trainer Customer Reviews
PetSafe Big Dog Remote Trainer
Works like a charm
When we got this product my husband tested each level in his hand to ensure it wasn't going to be painful for our 8 month old 50lb+ pit and he was able to hold the button for a few seconds on each level. My pit responds immediately on low level 1 in the house and somewhere between low 2&3 outside.
It had gotten to a point where I couldn't walk our dog without my husband because he would always jump up at the leash playing and tugging it. Since we bought this collar, I no longer have that problem and I no longer have to push the stimulation button. The dog knows the collar is on him so he acts right, I guess he learned fast.
I highly recommend this, it works like a charm and enables me to get the response I want from my dog.
FYI - when I received my product I thought something was wrong with it but realized the batteries it shipped with weren't any good. I bought new batteries and it worked just fine.
August 18, 2014
Great product
I previously used a vibration collar for my dog that was having trouble with barking, as well as staying in my yard. This collar has already dramatically improved both of those areas, and it's been less than two weeks. I would highly recommend this product, and more importantly this website.
August 19, 2013
Worked Quickly
We bought this collar to keep our 80 lb lab from digging in our drain field or by the fence. After just a few corrections she is no longer digging. The collar fits just right and is easily adjustable. I love that it has so many different levels and has plenty of range for our 1/4 acre backyard.
Our local pet store sells this model for twice the amount Chewy charged and it arrived in 2 days.
January 29, 2014
Quick and Easy
I bought this product to keep my hound off the counters and stop his nasty "recycling" habit. After 3 or 4 corrections, he got the idea! I like that it has several levels of correction and decent range. I LOVED that it was half the price here.
February 10, 2014
Easy to use and works really well.
I bought it to use with my German Shepherd and it worked really well. I was able to use this product to correct some minor behavior issues. Issues are gone.
July 25, 2014
Easy to use and very effective!
Our lab was getting out of control! A very smart dog but very head strong! This collar has allowed us to enjoy our pup and lavish her with love because she has learned to behave when she's outside and in! She no longer jumps all over everyone or eats all of the shoes and toys! She responds to vocal commands more frequently without actually using the collar now! It has transformed her and has saved our sanity! Best $80 I've spent!!!
July 4, 2014
very disappointed
I purchased 2 of these at the same time for my two puppies. The batteries need replaced every 2 weeks. and the one is already broke. I had them less than a month.
March 25, 2014
Very good product
The only thing that I would add or say I was disappointed with is that it has no vibrater on it other than that I love it.

Sprint Introduces Custom Branded Device Program, Enabling MVNOs To Custom-Brand White-Label Android Phones
As the proliferation of smartphones continues to grow, Sprint (NYSE:S) Emerging & Wholesale Solutions today introduced the Custom Branded Device Program. Through the program, MVNOs will have greater, and potentially quicker, access to a large selection of completely de-branded marquee Android handsets out of Sprint and Boost Mobile device inventory with volume pricing included.
Select Android devices can be automatically modified through Mobile ID and Mobile Zone, giving MVNOs the ability to extend their own brand directly to end users through over-the-air activation. Currently, Sprint has three devices available for this program – LG Optimus G, LG Mach and Sprint Flash. Several additional devices are expected to be added to the lineup by the end of this month.
Industry analyst firm Strategy Analytics reported in January that 70 percent of the world smartphone market share belonged at the end of 2012 to Android Meanwhile, in early February, research firm comScore released its quarterly U.S. smartphone market share numbers, which showed Android leading in market share with 53.4 percent of the total smartphone market.
"The Android operating system provides such incredible flexibility and supply chain economy of scale that, when coupled with the Sprint Mobile ID and Mobile Zone products, can now extend a value and a new branding opportunity to our wholesale customers," said Bill Esrey, vice president, Emerging & Wholesale Solutions at Sprint. "The Custom Branded Device Program enables our MVNO customers to extend a personal and direct relationship that transcends outside of the store walls, at Sprint's volume pricing."
Sprint continues its commitment to the "open" mobile ecosystem through open platforms Mobile ID and Mobile Zone, which are white-labeled variations of the popular Sprint ID and Sprint Zone applications. These platforms enable Sprint's international and wholesale customers to replicate Sprint's success with the retail versions of the same services – driving enhanced customer engagement and revenue growth opportunities for MVNOs.- Mobile ID – Mobile ID delivers a complete mobile experience – centered on consumers', students' or businesses' interests or favorite brands – including applications, widgets, ringtones and wallpapers, all in a couple of simple clicks. With more than 6 million downloads in the United States, Sprint smartphone users have already begun to harness the power of ID packs to create their own experiences while catering to different tastes and hobbies. Mobile ID enables personalization for the end user that offers access to a broad array of categories, allowing MVNOs to deliver a successful customized application to defined markets and customer segments.
- Mobile Zone – Mobile Zone provides a messaging gateway for end users to receive communication from their MVNO and enable customers with self-help services. Mobile Zone can enhance the user experience while improving MVNO-to-customer interaction. An interactive and relevant mobile application, Mobile Zone allows users who are always on-the-go a way to manage their account and discover new content anywhere and at any time.

What's the difference between counselling & coaching?
Well, there is some overlap between the two. The difference for me is in what you choose and the mutual agreement between us. At the start of any work together, we would explore difficulties and personal goals to help decide which would be most appropriate.
Many people are clear that, although they are aware of difficult historical problems affecting their current life, they would rather focus on practical ways around them. In this case, it is important to consciously acknowledge blocks, perhaps spend a little time on how they affect you emotionally, but keep a clear focus on the coaching process. This would be more directed and motivational, including goal-setting and regular reviews. A need for counselling may become apparent in the coaching relationship when repeated attempts to move forward are negatively blocked by unhelpful habits, conflicting unconscious beliefs, or feelings that are difficult to manage. If this happens, it may be necessary to review the coaching contract.
With counselling, the aim is to spend more time on learning about emotional relationships, exploring different ways of communicating, using the safe space to collaborate therapeutically to work through painful life circumstances and events, with the broader goal of creating a strong foundation for a healthier life.
Conveniently located in Central London – less than a minute's walk from Waterloo rail station, London underground network and local buses), I work face-to-face and at times online.
Online counselling has much in common with face-to-face counselling. That means it includes exploratory communication, a supportive space, compassionate listening, appropriate confidentiality, considered reflection and thoughtful challenge. This is in contrast to some everyday internet communication that may appear relatively superficial.
I aim for a more meaningful online engagement with the issues you choose to share, with your goals in mind. Working online via emails or live private messaging sessions is convenient and accessible if you cannot access regular sessions in person. It is especially suitable if you find it natural and helpful to express yourself in writing.
To find out more about me and my way of working, visit the About Me and The Integrative Approach pages.
I also work as an Executive Coach and provide organisational development and leadership consultancy. My fees for this are different from life coaching or counselling. Please enquire if you would like further information on this.

Eric McCormack (Will And Grace, Pound Puppies) Performing Benefit Concert
The status of a celebrity can help them do great things. Some, like Fran Drescher, raise awareness from their own struggles. Others…well, others use their status to join Dancing With The Stars. Fortunately, Eric McCormack of Will and Grace fame has chosen to do something closer to the former. He will be performing a two-night-only show in California's El Portal theater. The proceeds will benefit the Stand Up To Cancer foundation. Scope a tweet from McCormack after the jump and buy concert tickets here.

Schroeder: Rose Bowl, UW rivalry meet again
Here's a column filed Wednesday by George Schroeder:
There will be no prophesying from the preacher. Sorry, we tried. It's Washington week, so we sought out Danny O'Neil, but he wouldn't bite.
The former quarterback sees parallels to long ago — yeah, the 1994 Rose Bowl team — but he is not ready to go there.
Washington comes first.
And O'Neil probably has a different perspective than many. Sure, we get it: Ducks hate Huskies, and vice versa. But Oregon's five-game winning streak — in the series, and in the season — has reduced the intensity.
The rivalry remains fierce, but some Oregon fans are already getting revved for Halloween, and a huge matchup with USC.
Not O'Neil.
"That's so weird for me," he says, "to think of Washington as not good."
Fifteen years ago today, Washington was better than good. The Huskies came to Autzen Stadium ranked ninth, riding a five-game winning streak in the series (and 17 of the last 20). A couple of years earlier, Rich Brooks had told his young quarterback:
"All you've got to do is beat Washington, and you'll be a hero forever."
O'Neil did his part that afternoon, engineering a 98-yard drive for the winning touchdown. Except, of course, the hero forever is Kenny Wheaton.
That's fine with O'Neil, who watched the Huskies' last possession from the sidelines, certain Washington would score "and ruin it all." Instead, Wheaton stole the pass near the goal line and took it all the way back.
He's still scoring, all these years later, on those endless highlight loops, the indelible symbol of a program-altering event.
Which brings us to the present. O'Neil is 38, in his ninth year as pastor of Calvary Fellowship, the Eugene church he founded. He's also Oregon's team chaplain, and when he watches these Ducks on the field, and interacts with them away from it, he sees the same intangible stuff that permeated the 1994 team.
"There was something about that team that was unique and different from any other team I was on," he says. Click here for the complete column.

These sculptures of furniture and objects by Vincent Tomczyk are deceptively realistic. Try to sit on the sofa or chair for instance and they will crumble underneath you! The reason being that these amazingly lifelike sculptures are actually made entirely from paper.
I was amazed to learn that Tomczyk creates the works without adding any digital elements. Every crease and fold on the crisp white shirt, for example, is painted on. These deceptive artworks are on display for a limited time only at the 'Gallery 825' in Los Angeles for the month of May.
From the shirt and tie, to the tarnished leather wallet to the upstanding jean shorts and the traditional upholstered green chair, these artworks simply have to be seen to be believed.

The Phillies can survive Ryan Howard's contract, but can they survive the GM who gave it to him? Some baseball teams are disappointing by strange twists of fate. Some are disappointing by design. Not because they're designed to perform poorly (although that happens, too), but because they're given expectations contrary to reality, and when reality diverges from expectations, they continue to cling to the expectations. The 2013 Phillies are a team modestly below .500. Given a preseason forecast of a basically .500 team, this shouldn't be a terrible shock—baseball is a game filled with randomness, after all. But to view the Phillies as a real disappointment requires you to compare them to their run of excellence from 2007 through 2011, rather than the team they are now. General manager Ruben Amaro's expectations, then, seem weirdly out of date, in more ways than one. When asked about the player who will most likely define Amaro's career as a GM, he responded succinctly: The remainder of this post cannot be viewed at this subscription level.

Is there declarative transaction support in JDO?

JDO defines pessimistic or "data store" transactions as well as optimistic transactions. If an underlying data store does not support either of these, they can be simulated by the JDO implementation. When JDO is used within a J2EE-compatible application server environment, the transactions can be integrated with the application server's distributed and declarative transaction management.
The success of JDO does not necessarily mean the end of entity beans. Entity beans present other benefits to developers besides persistence management, including life- cycle management, security, remote and local access, etc. JDO can be a complementary technology to EJB. For example, JDO can be used by a developer as the persistence technology for bean-managed persistence (BMP) and JDO may be used by an EJB container vendor as the persistence technology for container-managed persistence (CMP).

Surya Naya NY5091 Brown Rug
Item #: 158NY5091-P Add to Wishlist
Description: This unique collection represents the current trends of contemporary designs by visionary designers around the world. Hand-tufted in India, the Naya collection reflects the modern mood of our time. Hand-tufted in India, each rug is produced by talented artisans using the finest wool that will make a fashion statement on any floor.
- Collection: Naya
- Brand: Surya
- Material: 100% New Zealand Wool
- Weave: Hand Tufted
- Styles: Contemporary Rugs
- Origin: India
- Available in the following sizes: 8' x 11'
- Clean & Care: Vacuum regularly as new wool rugs can shed yarn fibers for up to three months. Avoid direct and continuous exposure to sunlight. Do not pull loose ends, clip them with scissors to remove. Clean liquid spills immediately by blotting with cloth or sponge. For hard to remove stains, professional rug cleaning is recommended.
This rug is beautiful. I am very happy.....
I bought 2 of these rugs and they exceeded my expectations. The pattern resembles stones and each stone has a several hues in it so there is a lot of depth to the rug. It is beautifully made and goes well in both the living room and hallway.
This rug is in my living room - it is wonderfully soft and cushy, which makes it nice and comfortable to sit on when the sofa is taken. The picture is a very accurate depiction of the rug (at least on my monitor). I honestly can't think of a negative comment - I hesitated for two weeks before I broke down and took the risk of ordering it, but I'm glad I did. A major home retailer appears to have the same rug but without the brown border (saw it there after I got mine here, but I like the border better!).The [...] price was right and the rug is great quality. Go for it!
I am very happy (and relieved by) the quality of the rug. It is dense, thick and has not shed at all. I have owned the rug for about 2 months now. The photo displayed is accurate - on my monitor, it perhaps displayed a tiny bit lighter than reality. The brown background is more chocolate than walnut in real life (in my opinion). A great rug by Surya!
I really like the quality of this rug. It is heavy and seems like it is going to hold up well. The colors are very accurate to the website also. My only complaint would be that I ordered these rugs on 5/13 and am just now receiving them on 5/29. I thought it would be sooner. I am very happy with the product.
I've ordered 3 different rugs, in 2 different sizes, all made of hand tufted 100% wool. Very satisfied with Rugsusa.com! They sell good quality product. The shipment arrived in the time frame as promised. Will defenitely buy again.
Surya, a mark of quality and an expert source of ideas for making your home come alive with true timeless beauty. Though styles have come and gone, beneath them all is the fundamental principal that Surya area rugs are created to touch our senses. From concept through production, a member of the Surya family is there making sure that the highest standards are being met.

For those of you who subscribe to BYO... or are über knowledgable... How do you feel about the lack of krausen while using Fermcap-S and how it affects the removal of brown hefe. BYO had an article about brown hefe and how it is extremely stringent and bitter and how you really don't want it in you beer. If our fermentations no longer have a large krausen because of the fermcap drops, is the brown hefe staying in our beer, and is it affecting our brews? -----> Discuss
"brown hefe"? like "dark yeast"?
Like my snazzy new avatar? Get Sons of Zymurgy swag, here, and brew with the best.Revvy's one of the cool reverends. He has a Harley and a t-shirt that says on the back "If you can read this, the bitch was Raptured. - Madman I gotta tell ya, just between us girls, that Revvy is HOT. Very tall, gorgeous grey hair and a terrific smile. He's very good looking in person, with a charismatic personality... he drives like a ****ing maniac! - YooperBrew
No..... Brown hefe is the trub and hop junk that gets caught on the side of your primary during high krausen. It contains hops, trub, yeast, and other nasties that taste bad. My question is, does this junk settle out during racking? Or is the only way to get rid of it through trapping it on the walls of the primary fermenter?
i don't skim, i just let the krausen drop right back into the beer. i'd imagine not having the krausen will have similar results. i think it's negative effects are exagerrated as most of my beers are quite delicious
That is my experience as well. But do you think that it is suspended in the beer, or is it precipitating out?
i think it eventually flocculates with the yeast and becomes one with the rest of the trub. i generally leave my beers sitting around for a long time and use secondaries as well, which probably helps. Lately i've been filtering, too
I've been using Fermcap-S almost since day 1 without any astringency or bitterness problems. TL

Rob Pattinson Opens Up In Vanity Fair
You've seen the breathtaking new pictures from Rob Pattinson's upcoming Vanity Fair photospread, now it's time to hear what he has to say about his crazy, new life and those pesky Robsten rumors.
On his newfound fame:
"I'm trying not to drown. I guess I'm not the type of guy cut out to do a franchise. I'm not much of a crowd person."
On the Kristen Stewart rumors:
"It doesn't make any difference what you say [to the tabloids]. I've literally been across the country [from Kristen], and it's like 'Oh, they were on secret dates!' It's like 'Where? I can't get out of my hotel room!' "
On his admiration for K-Stew:
"I think she's the best young actress around. She's influenced how I've done all the Twilight stuff. It's quite nice to have someone who is genuinely indifferent to the whole spectacle of everything."
On his audition for Twilight:
"I was still in the mode thinking, I've got to make this really, really serious. This is not just a sexy thing.... I was slamming my head against the wall and kind of going nuts." He was sure he had made a complete ass of himself. "I remember calling my parents and saying, 'That's it. I'm not doing this anymore.' And then hearing, 'O.K., fine,' which was not the answer I wanted to hear at all."

The attention to detail won't stop once the Nissan is delivered to customers. While the particulars need to be ironed out with dealers in America, each GT-R comes with free maintenance and inspections for three years. The first visit will be around 600 miles and then at 12, 24, and 36 months after delivery. At each appointment, engine and transmission adjustments are made along with an ultra-accurate chassis alignment. Nissan wants to make sure owners are able to exploit maximum performance out of their GT-R at all times and in all conditions. But enough about the details on this Japanese sports car, let's talk about how the GT-R is from behind the wheel.
As you slide into the driver's seat, you're met by a well-proportioned steering wheel, column-mounted paddle-shifters, and a stubby selector for the dual-clutch six-speed transmission. At the top of the center console is a color screen that displays just about everything you would ever want to know about the car. While lots of cars tell you the level of turbo boost and the engine oil pressure and temperature, the GT-R goes about twenty steps further, supplying occupants with transmission oil temperature and pressure; front/rear torque split for the all-wheel-drive system; front-to-back, side-to-side, and combined G force data, steering angle position, and a lap timing system. The complete unit was developed in conjunction with Polyphony Digital Inc, the company behind the Sony PlayStation video game series, Gran Turismo.
As we slowly drove down the bumpy access road leaving Sendai Hi-Land Raceway, we immediately noticed the GT-R's stiff structure and suspension setup. We felt every crack and surface change along the road and we began to wonder if Nissan might have been a bit too aggressive with the setup. But a quick blast through the gears once we reached the main road told us our early concenrs were unfounded. While stiff, the GT-R reveals a level of dampening and overall suspension feel that few other cars carry. From the ultra precise and intuitive steering to the powerful brakes, the GT-R is able to maintain over-the-road speed that will, hold on for this, likely embarrass nearly every other production car in the world. Even with the adjustable Bilstein dampers in their stiffest setting, the GT-R is never harsh and it soaks up potholes and frost heaves like a rally car. Body control, front-end grip, overall balance, engine response, and transmission shift speed all come together to yield a mega car with a mega pace. You see, manufacturers don't spend loads of time and bags of money at the old Nurburgring just for bragging rights. Sure, the Nissan GT-R is faster than a 911 Turbo around the intimidating circuit, but a regimented testing procedure on the lumpy and bumpy track also yields huge benefits to real world driving dynamics. The time Nissan spent in Germany developing the GT-R proves this point. But all this work results in a car that is very easy to drive quickly, does this result in a less rewarding car? While the GT-R dances on that fine line between outright speed and videogame-like ease of operation, the grins on our faces stuck around long enough after the GT-R was driven like a hooligan machine to tell us that it is the real deal.
We would have loved to thrash the GT-R on the twisting roads of Japan all day long but time was getting tight and we were due back at the circuit for the track portion of the test. Unfortunately (or fortunately), we hit a load of traffic on the return leg. This allowed us to test the Nissan in everyday driving. The first thing we noticed was how the steering began to feel a bit dead on center and rubbery on initial turn-in when the car is driven at more sane speeds. The wide, 255-section front tires tended to grab ruts a bit more than we would've liked. In automatic mode, the transmission was slow to downshift and we felt a few shudders through the drivetrain during shifts. And that early concern from this morning about stiff ride quality started to rear its ugly head. To be honest, the car started to feel a bit boring. So, we took a turn off the main route onto a deserted road to try out the launch control system.

JAMSHEDPUR: The BJP formed a human chain on Human Rights Day on Saturday to press for its demand for a special status for Jharkhand and protest the Centre's unresponsive stand to grant the demand.
Holding the Congress-led UPA government at the Centre largely responsible for the poor human development in Jharkhand, BJP state president Dineshanand Goswami said human development in the state could have been more speedy and effective had the state received additional funds in accordance with the special status provisions.
"But the central government apparently is not serious about speedy and effective human development in Jharkhand or else it would have accorded the special status to the state and allotted additional funds by now," said Goswami while addressing a gathering of the party activists at the district headquarters.
He claimed Jharkhand qualified for the special state category but the Union government was deliberately preventing it from enjoying the status. "It's hightime Prime Minister Manmohan Singh realized the aspirations of over three crore Jharkhand people and declare special status to the state," said Goswami.
Describing the "step-motherly attitude" of the Union government towards the state as uncalled for, Goswami also requested all political parties of the state to join hands to fulfil the demand.
Earlier, around 1,000 activists of the BJP's youth wing, Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha, also formed human chain on the busy Subernarekha Link road brining the traffic to a halt for about an hour.
District in-charge of the organization Gama Singh called upon the youths to fight for seeking special status rights.
"We need to intensify our agitation to fulfill our demands. I urge upon the youths to carry the special status campaign for long," said Singh.

Blink: The Power of Thinking without Thinking (Malcolm Gladwell) How do we think without thinking, seem to make choices in an instant--in the blink of an eye--that actually aren't as simple as they seem? Why are some people brilliant decision makers, while others are consistently inept? Why do some people follow their instincts and win, while others end up stumbling into error? And why are the best decisions often those that are impossible to explain to others?
