(Santa Ana) Supervisor Janet Nguyen, Chair of the Orange County Board of Supervisors, is encouraging all residents to fill out and send in their U.S. Census forms if they have yet to do so.
The 2010 Census will help communities receive more than $400 billion in federal funds each year. These funds are used for hospitals, senior centers, job training centers, schools, public works projects such as roads, bridges and tunnels and emergency services. The data collected by the census also helps to determine the number of seats each state has in the U.S. House of Representatives.
"Just answer the 10 short questions and mail the form back in the postage-paid envelope provided," said Supervisor Janet Nguyen, Chair of the Orange County Board of Supervisors. "In these difficult economic times, it is more important than ever that people return their Census forms to ensure that Orange County receives its fair share of Federal funding."
The U.S. Census is required by the Constitution and must take place every 10 years. In Article I, Section 2, the Constitution states, "The actual enumeration shall be made within three years after the first meeting of the Congress of the United States, and within every subsequent term of 10 years, in such manner as they shall by Law direct."
The Census seeks to count every resident in the United States, both citizens and non-citizens alike. In order to perform this count, the Census Bureau delivers a short, 10-question form to every household in the U.S. This form is filled out to account for everyone living at a particular address and a prepaid envelope is provided so it can be returned at no cost to those filling it out.
With a return rate of 73%, Orange County ranks slightly higher than both the National Census form return rate of 72% and the California return rate of 71%. Currently, the city of Santa Ana is at 67%, the city of Westminster is at 75% and the city of Garden Grove has a return rate of 76%.
"I want to see each city reach 100%," said Supervisor Nguyen. "Participation in the census is important to you, your family and your community. By answering the 10 simple survey questions, you will help Orange County maintain its public services."
For more information about the 2010 Census, visit http://2010.census.gov.
Supervisor Janet Nguyen serves as Chair of the Orange County Board of Supervisors and represents the First District. She also serves as Chair of the OCTA's Transit Committee. She represents more than 600,000 people, covering the cities of Garden Grove, Santa Ana, Westminster and the unincorporated community of Midway City. Orange County ranks sixth in the nation as the most populous county and has the nation's seventh highest annual budget.

Sponsor and Partner Quaker Chemical to Expand its Role with SFHR in 2013

Sponsor and Partner Quaker Chemical to Expand its Role with SFHR in 2013
INDIANAPOLIS, Thursday, Nov. 8, 2012 Quaker Chemical Corporation has renewed its sponsorship for 2013 with Sarah Fisher Hartman Racing (SFHR) in an expanded sponsorship and technical partner role.
During the 2012 IZOD IndyCar Series season, Quaker Chemical spearheaded a research project designed to create proprietary greases and lubricants specifically engineered to combat the forces of friction, heat and wear for the unique demands of the Sarah Fisher Hartman Racing Team.
Joe Berquist, Quaker VP and Managing Director North America noted, "Our first year in IndyCar with SFHR was a great experience for Quaker. With the 2013 season, we are excited to continue leveraging our technical partnership with SFHR for ongoing product development, research and ideas. SFHR is a first-class organization and their family-centric approach to business is a great fit with Quaker's culture. Josef Newgarden is a talented, charismatic, and motivated young driver. We are looking forward to a great 2013 season."
According to SFHR co-owner Sarah Fisher, the opportunity to partner with a top-notch sponsor like Quaker Chemical so soon after the conclusion of the 2012 race season bodes well for the team as it constructs its 2013 business plan.
"We are thrilled to continue such a great working relationship and sponsorship with Quaker Chemical," Fisher said. "Quaker has been very involved from an engineering standpoint and I know the team enjoyed rolling up their sleeves during this partnership to assist from a technical perspective. To have a continuance of support from a quality sponsor who really benefits from our sport is a true indicator of the great things to come."
The ongoing research and development technical alliance will allow Quaker to continually develop superior lubrication technology for use within its core industries and customers.
"I am excited and proud to be able to continue SFHR's partnership with Quaker," SFHR co-owner Wink Hartman said. "Quaker's product knowledge and support are vital to the team's success."

I have several of NARS matte lipsticks, and they can be a real chore to use. I have to use a good liner and some balm to soften up the texture. But Captiva is really worth it. I am always on the lookout for lipsticks that look good with my purple clothes, and I must say they are hard to find. I was very shocked with I discovered that Captiva is quite a good match for many of them. I am very pleased. Just use some balm and go for it.

I have a couple of the Nars lipsticks, and this is one. I exchanged a Dior color for this (mistake number 1) as I accidentely bought two of the same color. I am not too fond of his formulas, as I generally prefer something a bit more moisturizing. The SA showed me the color and layered a gloss on top, so it didn't appear so dramatic. I tried wearing without, and it looked AWFUL! I am all for looking vampy, but this was just like putting clay on my lips. Not one that I would repurchase-not because I don't like the color, but because of the texture.

Gorgeous deep plum shade but very dry texture. The color is a matte plum with the slightest reddish-brown undertones, very dramatic but not too dark for fair skin. As with most Nars lipsticks the texture is pretty dry and somehow the color sinks into the outer edges of my lips. I'm going to try applying it on top of a lip pencil and some balm to see if that helps. Otherwise this is a very nice and wearable shade for the cooler months.

I'm astounded I haven't yet reviewed Captiva as it is probably in my top 5 lippies of all time (and I have an enormous collection). A deep dark berry w/ a sheer finish--this is understated glamour. More wearable than a red, but with the same impact. A little vamp you can get away with in the daytime even. This is one of my favorites from Nars and I will buy it again.

I love all NARS lipsticks I have tried. This one is no exception. It is a perfect sheer plum stain that can be built up for drama. It is a great fall/winter color for me- NC42 naturally tan. Beautiful, sophisticated plum lip color.

I'm new to Nars lipsticks and am stunned at how fabulous they really, truly are. Captive is the gorgeous colour of plum skin, a very cool toned, purpled berry that is perfect for fall. This is an HG shade for me, a cool-toned PPP with brown hair & eyes. I can't tear my eyes away from my own reflection after I put this on! The texture is heavenly, I love the matte coverage and lasting power.

I love this shade. Perfect deep berry/wine with no fushia undertones. This lip color is a part of NARS Emotional Rescue palette (another winner!)and looks beautiful when paired up with just about any eyelook. The application is smooth and most importantly it is quite long-lasting. I top it with a bit of clear gloss and it looks awesome. I will defenitely purchase a full-size of this lipstick!

My holy grail lipstick. Beautiful sheer berry color that does not turn to fuschia or anything scary on me. Stays true. Much more sheer than the dark red-purple color in the tube. Looks gorgeous and makes my teeth look very white. Not too drying. Very flattering. Kind of expensive but totally worth it.

This is a sheer dark berry/plum that is very flattering on my highly pigmented lips. (I am very fairskinned, with reddish brown hair and brown eyes.) I can't wear light lipcolors because they wash me out, and anything that is too pink turns into fuschia on me. I love lipcolors with a bit of plum/purple or brown (rather than pink or red) and this one is great. Although it's a dark color it's a sheer formulation so it looks relatively natural on, just like a nice sheer lipgloss that adds a bit of color. Similar to Tanganyka, but berry/plum instead of brown and with just a big more pigment. I like them both.

Captiva is too dark, to purplish/berry pigmented. It makes one look like they've been eating dark berries, and not in a pretty way. I can't imagine this shade would flatter anyone.

This morning I got an email from my colleague Jamie Little, who was rather excited (rightfully so) to share some news and requested that I post this in my blog. Jamie manages our Alliances Program and works very closely with our semiconductor partners thus keeping up to date on any new developments in the hardware side of the embedded world. Here is Jamie's message:
Texas Instruments has recently announced their LaunchPad platform based on the Stellaris Cortex M4 LM4F120 device at an introductory price of $4.99. Now that's cheap! TI is taking pre-orders and I understand due to high-volumes, the ship date stretches out to November 2nd.
So what do you get for $4.99? Granted, TI can't be making much (if any) money on Launch Pad and I'm sure TI expects plenty of orders from students and hobbyist. However, the LaunchPad is a nice piece of starter-hardware to test out an ARM Cortex M4F device – inexpensively. Under the hood, the Stellaris LaunchPad runs a 80MHz ARM Cortex –M4F CPU with 256k Flash/32K SRAM and handful of usable peripherals including UARTs, I2C, SPIs, CAN and even USB.
Coming soon there will be a Nucleus ReadyStart evaluation for the LaunchPad, the small kernel makes it possible for developers to use an RTOS that fits the memory. The TI Stellaris LaunchPad is sold at $4.99/unit, I think we can all agree that price is not an obstacle!
In case you did not know, the Sourcery CodeBench embedded toolchain already supports the Stellaris Cortex M4F family, so you can start using it today to develop and debug applications for the LaunchPad! Get your copy of Sourcery CodeBench.
You can follow my blog for announcements on new support for the LaunchPad or follow us on Twitter.
If you are one of the lucky ones who have managed to get your hands on a LaunchPad already, share your experience with us. Or if you do not have the LaunchPad yet (and dont want to wait until November), you can still tell us what you think inc. how you would use the new board and be entered to win a giveaway – yes, the LaunchPad itself (and some other goodies)!
Until next time, happy debugging!

Load Testing by Example - Best Practices - Web Performance. Overview The purpose of this tutorial is to present some of the best practices we have developed at Web Performance.
Through our Load Tester product development and load testing service experiences, we have found some easy tips and general strategies that can help make load testing efforts more successful. They are presented here in hopes of making all load testing efforts more successful. General Strategies As a tester, our job is to provide the best possible feedback on the readiness of an application as early as possible in the development cycle. Testing.
Automating JMeter tests with Maven and Jenkins. In this post, I will show how to integrate the popular load testing tool JMeter in a Maven build.
The goal is to allow every developer to easily develop and execute JMeter tests on his local machine. There will be no need to learn a new commandline utility or to install separate tools. TestCafé: Web Testing Framework.
Testing Web Applications with Spring Framework 3.2. Sam Brannen Swiftmind Rossen Stoyanchev VMware @sam_brannen.
Introducing Spring MVC test framework. Spring MVC comes with a very useful test framework, which allows doing in-depth testing without even starting a web container.
If you struggle maintaining any application based on Spring MVC, this post will show you the basics of the Spring MVC test framework. What am I testing? We can distinguish 3 levels of testing for Spring MVC controllers: The Future of Web MVC Testing. Ok, ok, I'm excited.
Right now I just was able to hack my way through a test with Spring 3.2 and the web context. The method I ended up writing looked like this: Does Spring MVC Spring 3.2 test the web.xml configuration. » Maven + JUnit + ClassFormatError: Absent Code attribute in method that is not native or abstract in class file dominikdorn.com. 11May 2010 Once in a while one stumbles upon an error message like this java.lang.ClassFormatError: Absent Code attribute in method that is not native or abstract in class file javax/mail/Session.
Spring Framework 3.2 RC1: New Testing Features. As Juergen Hoeller mentioned in his post announcing the release of Spring Framework 3.2 RC1, the Spring Team has introduced some exciting new features in terms of testing support.
Most importantly, we've added first-class support for testing web applications. [1] Please note: this is a cross post from my Swiftmind company blog. In this post we'll first take a look at some of the general new testing features in the Spring Framework, and then we'll go into detail regarding support for testing with a WebApplicationContext as well as request and session scoped beans. We'll close with a look at support for ApplicationContextInitializers and a brief discussion of the road map for testing with application context hierarchies. Rossen Stoyanchev will later follow up with a detailed post on the new Spring MVC Test framework that provides first-class support for testing Spring MVC applications. Spring Framework 3.2 RC1: Spring MVC Test Framework.
Last week Juergen Hoeller announced the release of Spring Framework 3.2 RC1 and Sam Brannen discussed exciting additions in its spring-test module such as support for WebApplicationContext's and upcoming plans for loading a hierarchy of contexts.
Today I will continue this subject and describe another exciting spring-test addition. In 3.2 RC1 we've added first class support for testing Spring MVC applications both client-side and server-side. Java: Is assertEquals(String, String) reliable. Java - AssertContains on strings in jUnit. Using HSQLDB to unit test database access code. Writing unit tests for code that accesses the database is a recurring challenge for Java developers.
This post will describe a technique we've used successfully on a number of database-intensive projects: using HSQLDB as an in-memory database so that the database access code can be thoroughly tested without dependencies on external resources. First a description of our environment: our production databases are Oracle. Our code is primarily used in web services running in Tomcat 6, but occasionally used in command-line applications as well. Performance vs. load vs. stress testing.
Here's a good interview question for a tester: how do you define performance/load/stress testing?
Many times people use these terms interchangeably, but they have in fact quite different meanings. This post is a quick review of these concepts, based on my own experience, but also using definitions from testing literature -- in particular: "Testing computer software" by Kaner et al, "Software testing techniques" by Loveland et al, and "Testing applications on the Web" by Nguyen et al. Update July 7th, 2005. Integration testing. Purpose[edit] The purpose of integration testing is to verify functional, performance, and reliability requirements placed on major design items. These "design items", i.e. assemblages (or groups of units), are exercised through their interfaces using black box testing, success and error cases being simulated via appropriate parameter and data inputs.
Simulated usage of shared data areas and inter-process communication is tested and individual subsystems are exercised through their input interface. Test cases are constructed to test whether all the components within assemblages interact correctly, for example across procedure calls or process activations, and this is done after testing individual modules, i.e. unit testing. The overall idea is a "building block" approach, in which verified assemblages are added to a verified base which is then used to support the integration testing of further assemblages. Selenium Test Automation with Maven. Today i want to help you manage your Automated GUI Tests (Selenium) better. In the past i have seen many different ways people handle this. Some people just write those plain HTML TestCases with Selenium-IDE, store it somewhere on the HDD and run manually when needed. Seleniumworks. ChromeDriver - selenium. Download chromedriver Developed in collaboration with the Chromium team, the ChromeDriver is a standalone server which implements WebDriver's wire protocol.
The ChromeDriver consists of three separate pieces. There is the browser itself ("chrome"), the language bindings provided by the Selenium project ("the driver") and an executable downloaded from the Chromium project which acts as a bridge between "chrome" and the "driver". This executable is called "chromedriver", but we'll try and refer to it as the "server" in this page to reduce confusion. Selenium Maven Plugin - Introduction. Provides support for using Selenium with Maven 2. Use this plugin to start a Selenium Remote Control server to support automated web-application testing. This plugin is intended to support usage of the Selenium Java Client Driver when running regular Surefire tests.

Brian Mohn counts on corn to fill the gap when his cool-season pastures peter out in the summer heat.
"I needed to find something to carry my cow-calf herd through the summer slump," says Mohn.
With his wife, Karen, he manages Papa Farm, a 350-acre commercial hay and beef operation near Bethel, PA.
"I was reluctant to take high-priced hay out of the barn to feed my cows in late summer," he says. "It makes more sense to sell that hay to the local horse and dairy markets and grow something else for my own cattle."
With input from his county agents, Mohn has learned the finer points of grazing cow-calf pairs on a small field of corn during the summer slump. While the cattle only graze the corn for about three weeks, average season-long calf gains are 2.3 lbs/head/day. This year he's grazing 60 animal units, down from a high of 130.
"Grazing annuals, such as corn, can be beneficial in certain situations," says Clyde Myers, a Penn State University extension agent in Berks County. Myers and his co-worker, Mena Hautau, have assisted Mohn.
"If producers have limited acreage for grazing, they need the extra production of forages in mid- to late summer when cool-season grasses slow down," Myers says. "It also gives them a measure of safety in case of dry weather because they'll have an additional source of feed to rely on."
The extension agents have researched corn grazing on cooperating dairy and beef farms, with positive results.
"When dairy cows grazed corn, their production stayed the same," notes Myers. "However, there was more corn wasted with the dairy vs. the beef cattle. That's probably because dairy cows are fed other feeds to keep their production up."
Mohn fall-seeds a wheat and rye mixture on the field targeted for corn the following year. It's grazed once before winter and once or twice in spring, then is killed with 2,4-D. He plants a 120- to 124-day hybrid between mid-May and mid-June, depending on the weather. He plants 15" rows with a no-till drill, aiming for a population of 40,000 plants/acre.
He says no-till saves money. "If I plowed and disked the field, my costs would be way too high."
He starts grazing the corn when it's at the pretassel stage, from late July to mid-August.
About 10 a.m. every day, he gives the cattle access to a 25 300' strip of fresh corn, using a portable electric fence. Next to the corn is a small alfalfa-orchardgrass pasture that the cattle can also graze.
"They have their choice between the alfalfa-orchardgrass pasture or the corn, but normally they go into the corn first to eat and then head to the other side to loaf around and chew their cuds."
Giving animals access to both types of feed is important, says Penn State's Myers. "Then there's some continuity in the animals' diets."
Mohn drives his ATV through the field to clear a path, then strings the wire through the path. "That knocks some stalks down just enough so that they can see the electric wire. I keep it good and hot, so they respect it."
By mid-September, when night temperatures are cooler and his perennial pastures are growing again, the corn's gone.
Mohn has used grazing-specific and silage hybrids. He prefers silage corn because the seed is less expensive.
"We've analyzed samples from both types for nutrient content and the grazing corn had a little bit higher sugar content," he reports. "But in my book that benefit didn't outweigh the higher cost."
Loose manure hasn't been a problem. "I've seen it a lot looser on lush, grass pasture than it is on the corn, which was contrary to what I originally thought."
He adds: "Timing when you're going to need the corn is probably the hardest thing to predict because the amount of rainfall we get changes. If it's not too dry here, the pastures stay productive longer."
Sorghum-Sudangrass Shines
Sorghum-sudangrass is a good choice for battling the summer pasture slump, says Clyde Myers.
"In some ways, it beats corn," adds Myers, an extension agent for Penn State University in Berks County. "Sorghum-sudangrass can be grazed several times vs. just once for corn."
It has other benefits, too. "We had a drought two years ago and the only thing that grew was sorghum-sudangrass," he says. "That's a big advantage it holds up well under dry conditions, whereas corn needs moisture. Plus the seed's cheaper."
In Pennsylvania, sorghum-sudangrass should be seeded in early to mid-May, he advises. "It will really come on strong when the weather warms up."
Grazing can begin as early as late June. Depending on the weather, the crop can be regrazed every 20 to 30 days. "But once the temperature hits 50 degrees usually in September it shuts right down."
If the forage is grazed when less than 30" tall, it's fairly nutritious, with crude protein percentages running in the high teens, says Myers.
"Even with dairy cows, if you get it at a young age, it's pretty good. We haven't seen milk production drop. We've found that nitrate and prussic acid poisoning have not been a problem if sorghum-sudangrass is grazed this young. However, caution should be taken when grazing it after rain following periods of dry weather."
He encourages dairy and beef producers to continue to graze other pasture species while grazing sorghum-sudangrass.
"Then they're not changing the rations as drastically," he says.
— Ann Behling

Best eats in Kampot
For a small southern Cambodian town, Kampot has a surprisingly good selection of places to chow down. So when you've had enough of contemplating the river, or you've worked up an appetite crawling round caves, here's our pick of some of the best eats in town.
Start your day with delicious coffee roasted on site and scrummy eggs benedict (US$5), bacon pancakes or banana bread (US$1.50) at Cafe Espresso. The homemade ethos extends to the cosy yet cool decor, with mismatched furniture and murals on flaky plaster walls.
Indulge in some leisurely people-watching over lunch at the family-run Penh Chet, which seats you at low wooden tables with a perfect view of the comings and goings around the Old Market. The hot sour soup with beef or fish packs a chilli flavoured punch for US$2.50 and marine lovers will be satisfied with the fried shrimp and green pepper ($2.50) or the seafood noodles (US$1.50).
If you've blown the daily budget on water-skiing, grab a plate of freshly pulled noodles (US$2) at the appropriately named Ecran Noodle Shop. Entertainment is provided by watching your dinner being twisted and stretched and turned into noodles before your very eyes. The US$2 dumplings, served boiled or fried, are also a filling meal that doesn't empty your wallet. On the Old Bridge road, the fruit shake stands also rustle up well-priced bobo (rice porridge), fried noodles and alarmingly coloured but tasty Cambodian desserts.
For more sophisticated street-side eating, La Java Bleue expertly dishes up swordfish, steaks and barracuda (US$8-$11) from their nightly woodfired barbecue on a fairy-lit terrace. Finish off with flambe bananas, which chef Jean Claude fires up at your table. Most seating is a deux, but there's room for bigger groups too.
No food round-up of Kampot would be complete without Rusty Keyhole, serving up sticky meaty ribs nightly to customers who overflow onto the pavement seating. If you've worked up a serious appetite, try the "Dinorib" plate for four people — owner Kristian provides a free dessert for any gluttons who can finish it by themselves. Other menu specials include barbecued barracuda fillet served with prawns and scallops, and succulent chicken with mushroom sauce and creamy mash. There's an extensive list of foreign beers and pots of real tea to wash down your dinner. Reservations are strongly recommended, especially at weekends and holidays, when the scrum of carnivorous expats is intense.
Cafe Espresso: Around the corner from Epic Arts. Open 8am -5pm daily
Ecran Noodle Shop: north side of Old Market, Kampot. Closed Tuesdays.
La Java Bleue: Near Year 2000 roundabout, Kampot. T: (033) 667 6679
Penh Chet: south side of Old Market, Kampot.
Rusty Keyhole: River Rd, Kampot. Open daily.

One Response to "Best eats in Kampot"
# Chuck McQueon 27 Mar 2014 at 1:10 am
Finally, a blog post devoted to food at Kampot! I mainly ate around the Old Market area for nearly two weeks in February 2014. I would add the Italian Restaurant, Divino, for desserts, tasty pasta dishes and a chef's special every day. Ellie's, south of the Old Market on street 726, offers an extensive breakfast menu served all day, including Scot's or Scotch Eggs, a partially poached egg, wrapped in ground pork and deep fried. Its Eggs Benedict is served on heavy home-made bread. Kampot Riverside Hotel, upriver from the old bridge, offers a hearty breakfast, (yes, with a bowl of fresh, tropical fruit) included in its room charge (around $5.50 otherwise) and the thickest, sweetest, mango smoothies ($2.50). Kampot has been famous for its high-grade of peppercorns, from colonial times, so these green, black, or white peppercorns often find themselves in local dishes.
