Nathaniel Dwayne Hale (August 19, 1969 – March 15, 2011), better known by his stage name Nate Dogg, was an American singer, rapper, and actor. He was noted for his membership in rap trio 213 and his solo career in which he collaborated with Dr. Dre, Eminem, Warren G, Tupac Shakur, Westside Connection, Snoop Dogg, 50 Cent, and Ludacris on many hit releases. He released three solo albums, G-Funk Classics, Vol. 1 & 2 in 1998, Music and Me in 2001, and Nate Dogg in 2003.
Nate Dogg died in 2011 in Long Beach, California of complications from multiple strokes.[1]
Nate Dogg was born in Clarksdale, Mississippi on August 19, 1969. He moved to Long Beach, California when he was 14, following his parents' divorce. He was friends with rappers Warren G, RBX, and Daz Dillinger and cousin of Butch Cassidy, Snoop Dogg, and Lil' ½ Dead. He began singing as a child in the New Hope Baptist Church in Long Beach and Life Line Baptist Church in Clarksdale, Mississippi where his father Daniel Lee Hale was pastor. At the age of 17 he dropped out of high school in Long Beach and left home to join the US Marine Corps,[2] serving for three years.
In 1990, Nate Dogg and Snoop Dogg,[3] and their friend Warren G, formed a rap trio called 213. 213 recorded their first demo in the back of the famed V.I.P. record store in Long Beach, the demo was later heard by Dr. Dre at a house party and he was instantly hooked on the soulful voice of Nate.
Nate Dogg made his debut on The Chronic. Singing in what later became his trademark style, he was well received by fans and critics alike, and would go on to sign with Death Row Records in 1993. Nate Dogg was also featured on Mista Grimm's "Indosmoke" with Warren G. Then in 1994 he produced his first hit single "Regulate" with Warren G. Nate Dogg was also featured in many Tupac releases, including his collaboration record Thug Life: Volume 1. Then in 1998 after a tumultuous time at Death Row Records he released another album. The double album was titled G-Funk Classics Vol. 1 & 2 and was followed up in late 2001 with Music & Me on Elektra Records. Music & Me peaked at number three on the Billboard hip-hop charts in 2001.[4] After a number of delays and an original release date of April 2004, his self-titled album was released under the Affiliated Entertainment Group on June 3, 2008.[citation needed] In the first half of 2014 his final studio album Nate Dogg: It's A Wonderful Life will be released by Seven Arts Music and United Media and Music Group. The album will feature unreleased material from Nate as well as appearances from Eminem, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Mary J. Blige and Jay-Z.[5]
In 2002, Nate Dogg appeared on a celebrity episode of the Weakest Link, making it to the last three players before being eliminated by Xzibit and Young MC.[6]
Nate Dogg found success, not only in solo projects, but in collaborations with other hip-hop artists. In the 2000s, Nate's high-ranking collaborative singles, according to Rolling Stone, includes 2Pac's "All bout U", Dr. Dre's "The Next Episode," Westside Connection's "Gangsta Nation," Mos Def's "Oh No," Fabolous' "Can't Deny It," Ludacris' "Area Codes," 50 Cent's "21 Questions," Kurupt's "Behind The Walls", Mark Ronson's "Ooh Wee," Houston's "I Like That," Eminem's "'Till I Collapse" and "Shake That", and Mobb Deep's "Have a Party."[7]
In the early 1990s, Nate Dogg was arrested and charged with two separate robberies. Nate Dogg was charged with the Check Changers robbery in 1991 and with the robbery of a San Pedro Taco Bell in 1994.[8][9] He faced a maximum of nearly eleven years in prison,[10] but was subsequently acquitted of both charges.[9][10]
In 1996, Nate Dogg was convicted of a drug-related offense in Los Angeles County.[11]
On June 17, 2000, Nate Dogg was arrested for allegedly kidnapping and assaulting his former girlfriend and set fire to her mother's car in Lakewood. He was then arrested by a SWAT team at his home in Pomona. He was accused of kidnapping, domestic violence, making terrorist threats and arson.[12] He spent a night in the Twin Towers Correctional Facility in Los Angeles before he was released on a $1 million bail.[13] These charges were later dismissed, but Hale faced jail time for a new charge, illegal possession of a firearm by felon. An unmarked firearm was found in his home during the June 17 arrest.[11] Hale pleaded no contest to the misdemeanor charge, and was sentenced to probation of three years and ordered to pay a $1,000 fine.[14]
On April 12, 2002, Nate Dogg was arrested when he was stopped by Arizona Department of Public Safety officers outside of Kingman, Arizona while traveling on a tour bus. He was arrested and charged with firearms-related and drug-related offenses after two pistols and four ounces of cannabis were found. Nate Dogg was booked on Mohave County Jail and subsequently released on a $3,500 bond.[15] Weapon charges against him were dropped as an exchange to guilty plea to drug possession charge. Nate Dogg was subsequently sentenced to probation and community service. He was also ordered to attend drug counseling sessions in May 2002.[16]
In 2006, Nate Dogg was arrested and charged with misdemeanor aggravated trespassing, telephone harassment, battery assault, dissuading a witness from reporting a crime and violation of a restraining order. In March 2008, Nate Dogg pleaded guilty to trespassing and battery and was ordered to complete a domestic violence treatment program, probation of three years, and was stripped of gun ownership rights for the next ten years.[17]
In July 2008, Nate Dogg was arrested and charged with two felony criminal threats after allegedly sending threatening emails to his estranged wife,[18] and one count of stalking after allegedly chasing her by car on Interstate 405 in previous month.[19] Hale initially pleaded not guilty to these charges,[19] which were eventually dropped in April 2009, because the alleged victim did not contact prosecutors in the case.[18]
Additionally, Nate Dogg had a conviction of driving under the influence of drugs.[19]
On December 19, 2007, Nate Dogg suffered a stroke, according to a coordinator from his recently formed gospel choir, Innate Praise.[20] Reports had circulated that Nate Dogg had been admitted to Pomona Valley Hospital Medical Center in Pomona, California after suffering a heart attack. Erica Beckwith, however, confirmed to MTV News that Nate Dogg was released on December 26 after being treated for a stroke and was admitted to a medical rehabilitation facility to assist him in his recovery. On January 18, 2008, it was officially reported that the stroke had rendered the left side of his body paralyzed. Doctors believed there would be a full recovery, and his voice was not affected. In September 2008, he suffered a second stroke.[21] Nate Dogg died on March 15, 2011 in Long Beach, California at the age of 41. On March 17, his attorney Mark Geragos confirmed that the cause of the death was from complications of multiple strokes.[1]
Nate Dogg's son, Naijiel Hale, is currently a college football player at the University of Washington.[22]
During his career, Nate Dogg was nominated for four Grammy Awards.

Awesome Thank-You Cards
Watercolor Ombre Thank You Cards I was able to select colors I had used in previous orders (I ordered my wedding invitations and programs from MagnetStreet as well) to match exactly on these thank-you cards. I was impressed with the high quality of the pressed texture paper - it feels like a real watercolor painting would! I am very pleased with the way they turned out and look forward to doing business with MagnetStreet again very soon :)
Thank You Sucsess
Stemming Flowers Thank You Cards I ordered my Save-the-Dates through MagnetStreet and was very satisfied with the outcome. I knew I wanted to put a photo from our wedding on the thank you notes and I found the perfect design on MagnetStreet. It captured the outdoor feel of our fall wedding and I loved that I could customize the colors. The picture we used was from our photographer so the quality was good, not perfect but not bad in the least. Shipped very quickly, customer service contacted me within minutes of my order with a problem and responded back once I had responded, letting me know they received my comments. Overall, very happy!

Curious as to what you guys that hunt with your AR's do for ear protection. My AR has a very loud flash hider on it, and .223 in general is loud. When i fire my gun you can feel the percussion hit your face, especially if you are standing to the side of it... When i first got it, i fired 3 shots without ear protection and had to take it back inside, i couldn't take the noise... my ears rang for the next couple hours... I'll never fire it again without ear protection... Do you guys use ear plugs/muffs, and not hear the game, or what? Also, any way to modify a 10 round mag to 5 rounds easily?

We have an Ar I have to wear muffs but u can still hear what u need to hear I keep them slid back on one ear just a tad then pull it forward when ready to shoot. I hope that helps
I don't mind living in a man's world as long as I can be a woman in it.
there are 5 round magazines available for AR's. the cabela's local to me stocks them. i dont use hearing protection when hunting. i dont find the sound of an AR outdoors loud. my first AR was a colt hbar that came with a dowel rod plug for each magazine to limit it to 5 shots in the twenty round mags for hunting. this was back in the mid 80's.
I use these when I go shooting or hunting.They work really well,you can turn up the volume and hear everything going on around you and as soon as a gun is fired they shut off and then come back on. I bought my cousin a set for him to wear at his machine shop,and he loves them.Shooting Accessories, Ear Protection, Stereo Hearing Protection, By Guide Gear at Sportsman's Guide
ANY rifle with a muzzle break, I want my "ears". No MB or flash suppressor, I may hunt without, but if I am using 8mm, .30 cal, etc- I am usually hunting across a bean field. I could not HEAR a deer at that range unless he was playing the bagpipes. Foam plugs. Dove hunting? Muffs.
What we have here is... failure- to communicate.
I think this is a real issue with the firearms community in general. I work in a loud building. The standard there is 30dB of protection minimum. To achieve this, foam plugs are almost exclusively required. Decibels are not linear, they are logarithmic. Add a three dB of protection and you gain nearly double. The good news is, most foam type plugs are in the 30-ish dB range, yet they are dirt freaking cheap. A club or small group of shooters can throw in a round of drinks worth of money and buy a thousand pairs. You only get one chance at protecting your hearing....

Brits blame electronics for insomnia
Britain is the most sleep-deprived nation in Europe. And an increasing number of insomniacs are blaming gadgets such as cell phones and BlackBerrys for their suffering.
Despite their calm demeanor and sweet, jovial humanity, it appears that the British are Europe's worst sleepers.
Sixteen percent of Brits claim their nights are not like white satin. (The finest European sleepers are, in fact, the Spanish, of whom only 2.4 percent report problems. We can learn a lot from the Spanish.)
While the British do accuse stresses associated with their jobs, their bank accounts, or their miserable spouses of keeping them up and getting them down, there is a new abomination for insomniacs: gadgets.
Yes, we can now happily diagnose a new disease for which some fine commercial entity might create a pill: electronic insomnia.
BlackBerrys, laptops and cell phones are triggering problems before bedtime, problems that creep into sleep like lice into locks. It seems that men over 30 find it hardest to switch off because they can't switch their gadgets off.
You'd think the traditional British remedy of eight pints of lager would do the trick, but apparently not.

I highly recommend two books by LTC Robert "Buzz" Patterson, USAF, Retired. They are Reckless Disregard and Dereliction Of Duty.
LTC Patterson was Senior Military Aide to President Clinton from 1996 to 1998 and was one of the custodians of the "nuclear football".
Be forewarned: These are pro-conservative and anti-liberal. (I'm not passing judgement on either side here) just alerting you to the tone of the books.

Affymetrix Reports Third Quarter 2012 Results
For the third quarter of 2012, cost of product sales, including eBioscience, was $34.0 million, as compared to $24.6 million in the same period of 2011. Product gross margin was 53%, as compared to 57% in the same period of 2011, the decrease is due primarily to the amortization of the step-up in inventory fair value of $4.5 million. Excluding the inventory step-up amortization, product gross margin for the third quarter of 2012 was 57%. Cost of services and other was $4.0 million compared to $3.0 million in the same period of 2011.
For the third quarter of 2012, operating expenses were $52.8 million, including acquisition- and integration-related non-recurring costs of $1.9 million, and recurring amortization of acquired intangible assets of $3.4 million and eBioscience operating expense of approximately $7.5 million. This compared to operating expenses of $42.2 million in the same period of 2011.
"For the third quarter of 2012 we've continued to make steady progress in stabilizing our business. On a constant currency basis, our revenue excluding eBioscience for the third quarter of 2012 was down by about 2% as compared to the same period in the previous year," said Frank Witney, president and CEO. "In the third quarter of 2012, we generated revenue growth of more than 16% as compared to the third quarter of 2011 in our Genetic Analysis business, which was offset by continued headwinds in our Gene Expression unit. With the addition of eBioscience, we have further diversified our revenues and added important capabilities to provide customers in translational medicine and clinical diagnostics with a comprehensive set of tools to improve healthcare outcomes."
Third quarter highlights:
- The Company signed a Powered by Affymetrix (PbA) agreement with PathGEN Dx Pte. Ltd., a spin-off molecular diagnostics company founded by researchers from the Genome Institute of Singapore.

July Visitor Figures Down But Vehicle Traffic Up
National Park Service Yellowstone National Park Al Nash or Dan Hottle ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- July Visitor Figures Down But Vehicle Traffic Up Almost as many people visited Yellowstone in the month of July as in the previous six months combined. There were 812,212 recreational visitors to Yellowstone in July and a total of 1,828,862 from the beginning of 2013.
The total number of recreational visitors to Yellowstone in July was down 5.25% but vehicle traffic was up 4.32% compared to the same period in 2012. Beginning this year, the park is using a new average number of people per vehicle, known as a multiplier, based on surveys conducted in 2012. Yellowstone began using the new, lower multipliers as of January 2013. This explains why the park can have more traffic but less visitors. Monthly visitation statistics are calculated by taking the actual number of wheeled vehicles entering the park gates and using a person-per-vehicle multiplier to calculate the number of recreational visitors. For example, during the summer months we previously used an average multiplier of 2.91 persons-per-vehicle. Based on the survey, we currently use a lower average multiplier of 2.58 persons-per-vehicle. A comparison of park traffic reflects an increase in the number of autos and RVs entering the park for recreational purposes in July. The total number of automobiles and RV's entering Yellowstone for recreational purposes during the first part of 2013 was up 4.32% compared to the same period in 2012. Compared to July 2012, the North, South, East, and West Entrances saw an increase in vehicle numbers. July is typically the park's peak visitation month, followed in order by August, June, September, and May. Detailed park visitation information and additional information on how these statistics are calculated is available online at https://irma.nps.gov/Stats/Reports/ReportList. - www.nps.gov/yell - Please note: In order to promote clarity regarding park visitation statistics which are being calculated differently than in past years, Yellowstone will report both the number of recreational visits and the number of autos and RVs entering the park for recreational purposes during this calendar year.

Jim Taschetta | November 21, 2012 | Comments
By giving shoppers a gift, retailers get hyper-efficient marketing that can truly change consumer behavior and create profitable new visits at the scale they need.
Gift giving has been the interpersonal glue of human society for thousands of years. From tribal leaders exchanging gifts for peace, protection, and food to our modern-day presents for holidays, anniversaries, and birthdays, gift giving has remained a strong and evolving part of our culture. While the types of gifts and gifting occasions have changed over the years, the remaining constant is how receiving a gift makes a person feel.
When people receive a gift they feel special, because they know the giver specifically selected it for them. Generally a person is able to give a desired gift because they know the receiver personally - their hobbies, interests, and overall what makes them happy.
Gift giving is now catching on with brands as a way to connect with consumers. As Bob Garfield, a prominent commentator and analyst of advertising and marketing, recently wrote, we are now in the "Relationship Era." I believe one of the best ways to form or strengthen a relationship is through gift giving.
The Emotional Side of Gifting
Retailers have known the secret of gift giving for years. As an example, Banana Republic periodically sends my wife $25 gift cards. There are no strings attached. She is free to spend whatever she wants. Best Buy sent me a gift card valued at $16.50 because of my participation in its frequent shopper program. Again, no strings attached. We feel good about these gifts and are highly motivated to visit the stores and spend our found money.
Why do these retailers give away free money? Because it works. At a recent gift card event, we learned about the following statistic: gift cards are 10 times more effective at driving customers in the door than any other promotional activity.
Gift giving - in the form of gift cards and gift incentives - is known to be a superior alternative to coupons and deals. Gifts and gift cards are highly engaging and somewhat irresistible. They are relationship-enhancing. Gift cards allow marketers to invite consumers to enjoy their brands with no strings attached. And they put consumers in the mindset to spend, not save. That might explain why my wife spends on average $150 every time she receives a $25 gift card from Banana Republic.
So Where Are All the Gifts?
So why aren't gifts a core part of every marketing plan? Until very recently, retailers have been unable to use gifts as incentives at the scale necessary to really move the business. The reason is simple. To give out a gift of free money, you have to be able to know with relative certainty that a consumer is likely to spend enough to make the investment pay out. My wife receives a Banana Republic card for $25 because she uses its private label credit card to make purchases. The retailer knows how much she typically spends (> $100) and can make a bet that she will follow that pattern. However, most retailers have spend data on only a small subset of their users and don't have the analytics capability to fully analyze the data. Nor can they make accurate decisions about who to give a gift to, and what the right value should be to maximize effectiveness and return on investment.
Big Data to the Rescue
Two trends are intersecting to make gifting a scalable proposition. The first is the ability of third parties to safely access credit and debit card data in partnership with the largest card issuers. By safely, I mean anonymously, so that no personal information is shared with third parties. The second trend is the development of technologies that allow companies to analyze hundreds of terabytes of data and make powerful predictions on an individual basis, in real time. The intersection of these two trends makes gift giving possible at scale, as new companies bring their expertise to the area, setting the table for a new field - gift marketing.
The Shift to Gift Marketing
Retailers spend upwards of $300 billion a year on coupons and promotions. Consumers are bombarded with more offers and coupons than at any time in history. And the more we send, the less responsive the consumer becomes. To stay competitive, retailers will need to shift funds from couponing and deals to far more efficient and effective gift marketing. Rather than offering shoppers a coupon, merchants can offer them a highly motivating gift based on their actual spending habits, which can be tracked and delivered via their financial institution.
By giving shoppers a gift, retailers get hyper-efficient marketing that can truly change consumer behavior and create profitable new visits at the scale they need. And shoppers feel a special connection to the gift-giving retailer, which carries into their shopping cart and future loyalty to the brand. We are on the verge of a seeing a significant shift in the economics of advertising and the rise of gift marketing.

Magnificent Sultan, magnificent hat.
CAN you write an Economist picture caption? The excellent standard of entries in our previous competitions suggests that many of you can: here's a fresh chance for you to see your wit in print.
The image shown on the right will accompany an article in our Europe section in this week's issue. It is a portrait of Suleiman the Magnificent, the longest-reigning sultan of the Ottoman empire, who died in 1566. More recently he has been the subject of a controversial television series being screened in Turkey. Some viewers have objected to the less than reverential way in which he is portrayed.
It's up to you to provide the caption: please leave your suggestions in the comments thread below. As before it should be as short and snappy as possible, and definitely no more than about 30 characters long. The best contribution will appear beneath the picture in this week's print edition, which is published on Friday morning. Entries close at midnight London time on Wednesday evening, so you've got a little more than 48 hours. The only reward is that the winner can then truthfully claim to have written (at least a few words) for The Economist. Over to you.
Update: Entries are now closed, and a winner has been announced.

Hi: 11° Lo:0°
THIS is the first look at the new, state-of-the-art Marie Curie hospice in Solihull.
Due to open on January 12, the purpose-built hospice has been created with every little detail being paid the utmost attention.
Upstairs it is a pioneering hub for staff, carers, fundraisers to ensure seamless care and care provision.
Meanwhile downstairs is all about the patients and their families.
There are 24 bedrooms - all with the very latest science and technology to ensure the very best care for the patients.
All of the rooms are en-suite with plenty of room for loved ones to even stay overnight when needed and specially designed double doors meaning all patients, even those restricted to their beds, can enjoy the fresh air of the hospice's gardens.
Day patients will benefit from a specially designed area just for them and throughout the hospice there are more communal areas for patients to spend time, if they wish, with others.
Visitors and families have been catered for too, with a purpose-built family room where they can retreat to when needed or the brand new café which will be open to all - patients, visitors and staff.

leave in the lurch
Abandon or desert someone in difficult straits. For example, Jane was angry enough to quit without giving notice, leaving her boss in the lurch. This expression alludes to a 16th-century French dice game, lourche, where to incur a lurch meant to be far behind the other players. It later was used in cribbage and other games, as well as being used in its present figurative sense by about 1600.

Fabulous Adventures In Coding
Eric Lippert is a principal developer on the C# compiler team. Learn more about Eric.
I was walking to my bus the other morning at about 6:45 AM. Just as I was about to turn onto 45th street, a young man, shirtless, covered in blood ran down 45th at considerable speed right in front of me. Behind him was another fellow, wielding a baseball bat. My initial thought was "holy goodness, I have to call the police right now!"
Then I saw that the guy with the baseball bat was himself being chased by Count Dracula, a small horde of zombies, a band of pirates, one medieval knight, and bringing up the rear, a giant bumblebee. Apparently some Wallingford jogging club got into the Hallowe'en spirit this past weekend.
In unrelated news: we've had lots of great comments and feedback on the async feature so far; please keep it coming. It is being read; it will take weeks to digest it and volume of correspondence may preclude personal replies, for which I apologize, but that's how it goes.
Today I want to talk a bit about composition of asynchronous code, why it is difficult in CPS, and how it is much easier with "await" in C# 5.
I need a name for this thing. We named LINQ because it was Language Integrated Query. For now, let's provisionally call this new feature TAP, the Task Asynchrony Pattern. I'm sure we'll come up with a better name later; remember, this is still just a prototype. (*)
The example I've been using so far, of fetching and archiving documents was obviously deliberately contrived to be a simple orchestration of two asynchronous tasks in a void returning method. As we saw, when using regular Continuation Passing Style it can be tricky to orchestrate even two asynchronous methods. Today I want to talk a bit about composition of asynchronous methods. Our ArchiveDocuments method was void returning, which simplifies things greatly. Suppose that ArchiveDocuments was to return a value, say, the total number of bytes archived. Synchronously, that's straightforward:
long ArchiveDocuments(List<Url> urls){ long count = 0; for(int i = 0; i < urls.Count; ++i) { var document = Fetch(urls[i]); count += document.Length; Archive(document); } return count;}
Now consider how we'd rewrite that asynchronously. If ArchiveDocuments is going to return immediately when the first FetchAsync starts up, and is only going to be resumed when the first fetch completes, then when is the "return count;" going to be executed? The naive asynchronous version of ArchiveDocuments cannot return a count; it has to be written in CPS too:
void ArchiveDocumentsAsync(List<Url> urls, Action<long> continuation){ // somehow do the archiving asynchronously, // then call the continuation}
And now the taint has spread. Now the caller of ArchiveDocumentsAsync needs to be written in CPS, so that its continuation can be passed in. What if it in turn returns a result? This is going to become a mess; soon the entire program will be written upside down and inside out.
In the TAP model, instead we'd say that the type that represents asynchronous work that produces a result later is a Task<T>. In C# 5 you can simply say:
async Task<long> ArchiveDocumentsAsync(List<Url> urls){ long count = 0; Task archive = null; for(int i = 0; i < urls.Count; ++i) { var document = await FetchAsync(urls[i]); count += document.Length; if (archive != null) await archive; archive = ArchiveAsync(document); } return count;}
and the compiler will take care of all the rewrites for you. It is instructive to understand exactly what happens here. This will get expanded into something like:
Task<long> ArchiveDocuments(List<Url> urls){ var taskBuilder = AsyncMethodBuilder<long>.Create(); State state = State.Start; TaskAwaiter<Document> fetchAwaiter = null; TaskAwaiter archiveAwaiter = null; int i; long count = 0; Task archive = null; Document document; Action archiveDocuments = () => { switch(state) { case State.Start: goto Start; case State.AfterFetch: goto AfterFetch; case State.AfterArchive: goto AfterArchive; } Start: for(i = 0; i < urls.Count; ++i) { fetchAwaiter = FetchAsync(urls[i]).GetAwaiter(); state = State.AfterFetch; if (fetchAwaiter.BeginAwait(archiveDocuments)) return; AfterFetch: document = fetchAwaiter.EndAwait(); count += document.Length; if (archive != null) { archiveAwaiter = archive.GetAwaiter(); state = State.AfterArchive; if (archiveAwaiter.BeginAwait(archiveDocuments)) return; AfterArchive: archiveAwaiter.EndAwait(); } archive = ArchiveAsync(document); } taskBuilder.SetResult(count); return; }; archiveDocuments(); return taskBuilder.Task;}
(Note that we still have problems with the labels being out of scope. Remember, the compiler doesn't need to follow the rules of C# source code when it is generating code on your behalf; pretend the labels are in scope at the point of the goto. And note that we still have no exception handling in here. As I discussed last week in my post on building exception handling in CPS, exceptions get a little bit weird because there are *two* continuations: the normal continuation and the error continuation. How do we deal with that situation? I'll discuss how exception handling works in TAP at a later date.)
Let me make sure the control flow is clear here. Let's first consider the trivial case: the list is empty. What happens? We create a task builder. We create a void-returning delegate. We invoke the delegate synchronously. It initializes the outer variable "count" to zero, branches to the "Start" label, skips the loop, tells the helper "you have a result", and returns. The delegate is now done. The taskbuilder is asked for a task; it knows that the task's work is completed, so it returns a completed task that simply represents the number zero.
If the caller attempts to await that task then its awaiter will return false when asked to begin async operations, because the task has completed. If the caller does not await that task then... well, then they do whatever they do with a Task. Eventually they can ask it for its result, or ignore it if they don't care.
Now let's consider the non-trivial case; there are multiple documents to archive. Again, we create a task builder and a delegate which is invoked synchronously. First time through the loop, we begin an asynchronous fetch, sign up the delegate as its continuation, and return from the delegate. At that point the task builder builds a task that represents "I'm asynchronously working on the body of ArchiveDocumentsAsync" and returns that task. When the fetch task completes asynchronously and invokes its continuation, the delegate starts up again "from the point where it left off" thanks to the magic of the state machine. Everything proceeds exactly as before, in the case of the void returning version; the only difference is that the returned Task<long> for ArchiveDocumentsAsync signals that it is complete (by invoking its continuation) when the delegate tells the task builder to set the result.
Make sense?
Before I continue with some additional thoughts on composition of tasks, a quick note on the extensibility of TAP. We designed LINQ to be very extensible; any type that implements Select, Where, and so on, or has extension methods implemented for them, can be used in query comprehensions. Similarly with TAP: any type that has a GetAwaiter that returns a type that has BeginAwait, EndAwait, and so on, can be used in "await" expressions. However, methods marked as being async can only return void, Task, or Task<T> for some T. We are all about enabling extensibility on consumption of existing asynchronous things, but have no desire to get in the business of enabling production of asynchronous methods with exotic types. (The alert reader will have noted that I have not discussed extensibility points for the task builder. At a later date I'll discuss where the task builder comes from.)
Continuing on: (ha ha ha)
In LINQ there are some situations in which the use of "language" features like "where" clauses is more natural and some where using "fluent" syntax ("Where(c=>...)") is more natural. Similarly with TAP: our goal is to enable use of regular C# syntax to compose and orchestrate asynchronous tasks, but sometimes you want to have a more "combinator" based approach. To that end, we'll be making available methods with names like like "WhenAll" or "WhenAny" that compose tasks like this:
List<List<Url>> groupsOfUrls = whatever; Task<long[]> allResults = Task.WhenAll(from urls in groupsOfUrls select ArchiveDocumentsAsync(urls)); long[] results = await allResults;
What does this do? Well, ArchiveDocumentsAsync returns a Task<long>, so the query returns an IEnumerable<Task<long>>. WhenAll takes a sequence of tasks and produces a new task which asynchronously awaits each of them, fills the result into an array, and then invokes its continuation with the results when available.
Similarly we'll have a WhenAny that takes a sequence of tasks and produces a new task that invokes its continuation with the first result when any of those tasks complete. (An interesting question is what happens if the first one completes successfully and the rest all throw an exception, but we'll talk about that later.)
There will be other task combinators and related helper methods; see the CTP samples for some examples. Note that in the CTP release we were unable to modify the existing Task class; instead we've provisionally added the new combinators to TaskEx. In the final release they will almost certainly be moved onto Task.
Next time: No, seriously, asynchrony does not necessarily involve multithreading.
(*) I emphasize that this is provisional and for my own rhetorical purposes, and not an official name of anything. Please don't publish a book called "Essential TAP" or "Learn TAP in 21 Time Units" or whatever. I have a copy of "Instant DHTML Scriptlets" on my bookshelf; Dino Esposito writes so fast that he published an entire book between the time we mentioned the code name of the product to him and we announced the real name.

So maybe "await" should simply translate into ".Result" when written inside a non-async method?
I have a suggestion with a reason for syntactically improving the constructs.
Return statement in async method in reality is returning a value which is getting associated with Task and not something which looks like it is returning TO THE CALLER.
async public Task<int> ReturnIntAsync()
return 0;
So the return statement can be modified something like
async return OR task return, just to clarify what it is doing and also matches with the function signature.
I have tried to explain this in my blog(my first blog:), please have a look.
I still think this design should move to attribute level instead of implmenting Async specific stuff inside the worker threads.... Thoughts?
@Stuart, it's hard to be certain but I don't know if you're thinking the same thing as me! :)
Yes, await (or 'finish' if you prefer) has to be retained so that we can explicitly force a continuation on any Task-like object. But in examples like this:
var document = await FetchAsync(url);
... the await prefix ought to be redundant (indeed, erroneous), just as it would be in a non-async method. The established C# syntax to indicate that you want to call a method and wait for it to complete, and bind the result to a name:
var document = Fetch(url);
(And the naming convention becomes less necessary too - the very fact that a naming convention is invoked is a signal that a FACT exists, which could be captured in a more formal way, so allowing our tools to be more helpful.)
All my previous comments under this post have been about extending that familiar syntax so it works in this new, closely analogous situation and means the same thing on a logical level (the technical detail having been abstracted away).
Re: the viral nature of async calls, yes, that's unavoidable, because the CLR has an existing model of method calls and stacks that works a certain way. C# has to continue to integrate with it.
C# could - in theory - compile every method as async, and generate a continuation step for every method call. This would make C# class libraries incompatible with other CLR languages, and so is not really a practical option. We have to have two "modes" of compilation in order to be able to interoperate smoothly on both the CLR and async levels.
But it's a useful thought experiment. In this parallel universe (pun definitely not intended), awaiting would be implied by every (normal) method call - in other words, the compiler would put [AutoAwait] on every method written in C#. A key point is that the semantics of all existing code would be identical.
And of course even your Main function would be async. To allow your program to run under the CLR, the compiler would have to quietly generate the "real" Main function for you, which would keep a stack of continuations in order to simulate the normal semantics of method calls for you.
A similar thing would have to happen whenever you assigned one of your methods to an ordinary delegate (this would include starting threads). If you declared a delegate type of your own, it would have to be translated into an async delegate (marked with [AutoAwait] and transformed so it returns Task<T>, etc.)
In other words, there would be a lot of extra work for the compiler to do! And the result would have poor interoperability with other CLR languages. For example, a property getter would have to be turned into a method that returned a Task<T>, and so would no longer look like a property to other CLR languages.
@Daniel Earwicker:
The await would only be redundant if you *always* wanted to wait for the result. There's another option, which is to start a long-running process (Task), do some other things, and later await the result. For example:
var bigSlowDocumentTask = FetchAsync(url);
(do some other stuff, possibly starting other tasks and awaiting other things)
var document = await bigSlowDocumentTask;
In fact, there are three paradigms here for calling a method:
1. var result = Method(); -- call the method, wait for the result, and block the current thread until it arrives.
2. var result = await MethodAsync(); -- call the method, wait for the result, and let the current thread do other things until it arrives.
3. var task = MethodAsync(); -- call the method, don't wait for the result, do other things, and plan to check in on it later, possibly cancelling or awaiting it at some point in the future. *This calling paradigm can be used in a non-async method*.
The compiler creates goto's "(SCREAM)"
What else would you have the compiler create? When generating code the compiler only has one local, non-exception control flow at its disposal, and that's goto (either conditional or unconditional). Remember, conditional and looping statements are just more pleasant ways to write gotos; they are still gotos when the compiler is done with them. What else would they be? - Eric

Retail Row
It may go down as one of the longest feuds in footwear history. Kitson owner Fraser Ross continued to stoke the flames of his quarrel with Decker's Outdoor Corp.'s Ugg brand when he posted a window sign at his new location in the Santa Monica Place mall declaring "What's Hot: Emu Boots — What's Not: Ugg Boots." "It's a fashion tip," Ross told Insider. "We do this all the time. At one time, Ugg was a great business, and now I need another casual boot business, and that's Emu. We need to develop and build that brand." But that didn't exactly fly at Deckers HQ, which quickly hit Ross with a cease-and-desist letter, claiming the use of the Ugg name violated its trademark. A spokesperson from Deckers explained that the retailer's relationship with Deckers was terminated in 2009. "Deckers and its Ugg Australia brand obviously disagree with the content of Kitson's advertising, [as] a former retailer for the brand," the spokesperson said. But that's not likely to be the end of it. Ross said he plans to unveil a similar window at his Robertson Boulevard location after Labor Day. And this isn't Kitson's only dispute. Majestic Mills, the distributor of Nicole Richie's House of Harlow 1960 line, recently filed suit against the retailer for $225,000 in unpaid invoices.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
White Oak Bayou is one of the several waterways that give Houston, Texas, USA, its popular nickname, "The Bayou City." The Bayou originates northwest of FM 1960, near Highway 6 and U.S. Highway 290/Northwest Freeway, and meanders generally toward the southeast until it joins Buffalo Bayou in downtown Houston.
Contents |
White Oak Bayou drains areas throughout the northwest portions of Harris County as well as the City of Jersey Village and portions of the City of Houston. Its watershed covers about 111 square miles (290 km2) and includes three primary streams: White Oak Bayou, Little White Oak Bayou and Cole Creek. In addition, Vogel Creek and Brickhouse Gully are among the major tributaries in the watershed. In all, there are about 151 miles (243 km) of open streams in the White Oak Bayou watershed, including the primary and tributary channels.[1]
Wildlife habitat exists on much of the undeveloped tracts scattered throughout the watershed and has been preserved and/or created in several of the large regional stormwater detention basins constructed by the Harris County Flood Control District. However, only a little undisturbed wildlife habitat exists along the urban channels of White Oak Bayou and its tributaries.[1]
The original Port of Houston was located at the confluence of White Oak Bayou and Buffalo Bayou in what is now downtown Houston by the University of Houston–Downtown. This area is called "Allen's Landing" and is the official birthplace of Houston, Texas.[2] The landing is now designated as a historical city park.
Near a bend in White Oak Bayou, where Houston's First and Sixth wards meet, lies Olivewood Cemetery, the historic 6-acre (24,000 m2) resting place for many freed slaves and some of Houston's earliest black residents. Established in 1877, it is the oldest graveyard for African-Americans in the Houston area.[3]
In early June 2001, the Bayou caused at least three of 17 Houston-area deaths attributed to Tropical Storm Allison,[4] when it raged out of its banks, as the maximum rainfall from Allison that fell on June 8 and 9 was shifted primarily over the White Oak Bayou watershed.[5] Its tributary, Little White Oak Bayou, accounted for another two deaths.[4]
The West White Oak Bayou Trail runs along the banks of the bayou, parallel to T. C. Jester Boulevard, from 11th Street to Antoine St, providing bicyclists and pedestrians a 7.4-mile (11.9 km) long mostly concrete and asphalt trail (the portion just South of Little York to Antoine is still dirt). Passing through several parks, the trail is lighted and includes protective railings in some areas. In 2006, the Houston Press named the West White Oak Bayou Trail the best bike path in the City of Houston.[6]
Connections to and from the West White Oak Bayou Trail include the Central Business District (CBD) Access On-street Bikeway, at 11th Street and at Ella Boulevard on the south; and the West Houston On-street Bikeway, at 34th Street, Du Barry Lane (to Wakefield Drive), 43rd Street, Carleen Road (to Bethlehem Street), and Pinemont Drive on the north.[7]
Just north of downtown Houston, around White Oak Park, the banks of White Oak Bayou have been cleaned and a swampy area restored where birdwatching can be enjoyed. Yellow-crowned Night Heron and Green Heron nest there, and a number of eastern woodland birds also reside in and around the park.[8] In addition, the White Oak Bayou Association, a non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation, restoration, and maintenance of wildlife habitats along the bayou, has been established as part of the Citizens' Environmental Coalition.[9]
Also along the bayou, between 18th and 11th Streets, is a grove of trees that have been planted by Trees For Houston. The "Tribute Grove" offers individuals the opportunity to commemorate special people or events by planting a tree on White Oak's banks. Since 1997, 1,494 trees have been planted in area Tribute Groves by Trees For Houston.[10]

Target Announces Agreement To Sell Credit Card Portfolio To TD Bank Group
Transaction Structure, Accounting and Earnings Impacts
Target expects its third quarter 2012 GAAP earnings per share will reflect a pre-tax gain of approximately $150 million due to a change in the accounting treatment of its receivables from "held for investment" to "held for sale". In addition, at closing Target expects to recognize an additional pre-tax gain of $350 to $450 million on the sale of its portfolio. Target has posted details on the accounting aspects of this transaction on its investor relations website: www.Target.com/investors.
Target expects to deploy proceeds from the sale in a manner that will preserve its strong investment-grade credit ratings. Specifically, the company expects to apply approximately 90 percent of net transaction proceeds to reduce the company's net debt position, with the remainder applied to share repurchase over time.
Under the terms of the program agreement, Target will continue to earn a substantial portion of the profits generated by the Target Credit Card and Target Visa portfolios. Target's income from the profit-sharing arrangement, net of account servicing expenses, will be recognized within SG&A expenses in its U.S. Retail Segment. Beginning with the fiscal quarter in which the transaction closes, Target will no longer report its U.S. Credit Card Segment.
Target expects that net income from this profit-sharing arrangement, combined with the benefit of debt reduction and share repurchase resulting from deployment of proceeds from the sale, will result in mild dilution to Target's adjusted earnings per share in the first 12 months following closing*. Specifically, Target expects that in the 12 months following closing its adjusted earnings per share will be approximately 10 cents lower compared with a scenario in which Target continued to fund its portfolio. Based on its forecast for income from profit sharing combined with the expected benefit from share repurchase and interest savings, Target expects that the adjusted EPS impact of this transaction will be neutral over time.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

One of my clients was in this morning and said he had been looking for a S&W 642.
Well I just happen to have one that we really don't shoot anymore, so off hand, I yell to my wife that he wanted to buy her 642. Well he really wants to trade it for a Norinco folding stock SKS and 200 rds of ammo.
That seems a bit light though.
The wife's comment was "you got an M-1 carbine, and its a done deal".
I am pretty sure that the 642 will remain in the safe. He really liked the CT laser, and his wife liked it as well, but since I already have one SKS and don't really shoot it, I can't see that the folding stock model would be used any more.
So, would you do the trade, or would he have to sweeten the pot?

Thakoon Fall 2010: Feral and Furry
>> It wouldn't be Fashion Week if everyone wasn't flying by the seat of their pants. Imogen Morris-Clarke, who walked Thakoon yesterday, Tweeted post-show: "Hanne [Gaby Odiele] was in [her] own clothes as the show began!!! manic."
The pre-show panic wasn't felt in the show's audience, however, where Andre Leon Talley was wearing a sweater with big fuzzy dollar sign on the back paired with a furry scarf and Grace Coddington took her time chatting with fellow front rowers before taking her seat. As the lights went down, the music took on the pervasive pounding of a heartbeat, and the models emerged from a cavernous opening, framed by two oversized shapes which curled over their heads and softly glowed. They stopped in their tracks to pose in front of the photographers before carrying on down the runway.
Panichgul says the collection, with its fur-lined hoods, handkerchief hems, shearling boots, and pom pom fringe, was inspired by the image of a half-shaven sheep. "It captured everything that I wanted in my collection," he explained. "It was raw, primitive and soft all at once." The perfect embodiment of the inspiration: a tiger-print dress, the bottom half all tiger-striped fur.

Director Robert Rodriguez is being sued for $11 million by a gaming company, claiming that he bullied them out of plans to make a series of films and game apps.
US company ITN Flix were planning to make a series of vigilante-based films with frequent Rodriguez collaborator Danny Trejo, but its alleged that the 'Sin City' helmsman then bullied the company's partners in the project, including Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, out of participating.
[Related story: Man of Steel hair stylist to sue over on-set injury]
It's claimed that Rodriguez believed the project to be too similar to his 'Machete' and 'Machete Kills' films, which star Trejo.
ITN made the game app 'Danny Trejo's Vengeance: Woz With a Coz', with the participation of Wozniak, in order to raise money and create publicity for the film projects.
But they state that Rodriguez used 'his means, connections and influence to threaten, intimidate and bully Wozniak into pulling support of the game', claiming Trejo's agent worked alongside Rodriguez to scupper the plans by telling Wozniak that the owner of ITN Flix was 'a fraud and a con man'.
Wozniak later pulled out of the deal.
The suit claims that the company has lost out on at least $11 million in revenue, and is seeking that sum in damages.

Kanye West New Album "So Help Me God" Tracklist
Updated by DJ Green | THE DJ | 03.01.2015 @ 19:24:39
Last night Yeezy hit his Twitter to finally drop a little information about his upcoming album. After debuting "Only One" at the start of the year, performing Wolves, and recently doing an outstanding performance at the BRIT Awards to what will probably be the lead single, All Day, Yeezus, finally hit us with the album title to his new album.. SO HELP ME GOD. Shortly after breaking the news our friends over at Reddit dug up what looks to be the track list to the album. With it only being 12 tracks 3 of which don't disappoint, Ye still has a couple solo records and a few notable features from Kendrick Lamar, Big Sean, Young Thug, another one with Paul McCartney, his 2 year old daughter North West and more.
Note until we get some more concrete proof this track list even written in Yeezy Font is still rumored so take it with a grain of salt and be sure to check back here or on the Instagram at @OfficialDjGreen to keep up with news and releases surrounding the album.
