This is a bogus argument. Attempts to make you "turn in your guns" are very demonstrably anti-Constitutional. The census is VERY Constitutional - it's right in the document in the same black and white as is the 2d Amendment (in fact, it may be "more" Constitutional, as it was a part of the original document and not an amendment).
The census is in the Constitution. This one is much less intrusive than the last one, so saying BS about "the current administration" holds no water. It's the law. It takes 5 minutes. I defy anyone to show how the questions currently asked are a threat to their freedoms, or are in violation of the Constitutional mandate...
A man fires a rifle for many years, and he goes to war. And afterward he turns the rifle in at the armory, and he believes he's finished with the rifle. But no matter what else he might do with his hands - love a woman, build a house, change his son's diaper - his hands remember the rifle.
Thanks for the entertainment folks.
May your chains rest lightly upon you. I'll bother you no more.
I am still trying to figure out what was so hard about jsut filling out the dang form in the first place. It really wasn't that big of a deal. It was not invassive and only took about 3 minutes to do.

what is different and can be discussed is, the diameter of the 40--being smaller it may not tick the vein that the wider
45 cal does. but the 40 goes deeper and may do damage the 45 can't reach.

Using the Yahoo Search API with Perl
Following in the footsteps of Google, Amazon, and eBay, Yahoo recently introduced a web service API to its search engine. In this month's column, we look at three Perl scripts that can help you correct typos, view other people's vacation pictures, and track those long lost pals from school.
It is quite common for an Internet service to provide a Web API. Developers use the Web API to integrate the Internet service with their own applications. Yahoo just released a REST (Representational State Transfer) interface to its search infrastructure. REST basically lets an application send a URL and get XML back. Of course, there is also a new Yahoo::Search Perl module to match; the module is available from CPAN and was developed by regex guru Jeffrey Friedl. Yahoo::Search makes it easy to search for documents, images, videos, and many other things. HTTP access and XML extraction are hidden behind simple calls to methods. If you intend to write an application, you need to register to get your own application ID. You will be allowed to issue 5,000 calls per day to the services mentioned in this article. To register at [2], you will need your own Yahoo ID, which you can get in exchange for a valid email address. You'll also have to agree to Yahoo's Privacy Statement; make sure to read it carefully.

WNBA Scores
Friday, Jul 3rd
7:30 PM ET, July 3, 2009
Alana Beard got plenty of space to drive to her right in her last contest, resulting in a game-winning shot for the Washington Mystics. The Atlanta Dream, meanwhile, seem to be giving their opponents plenty of room all over the floor.
The Mystics, with a chance to win consecutive games for the first time since opening the season with three straight victories, look to take advantage of a struggling Dream defense Friday night in Atlanta.Washington (5-3) avoided a three-game skid Tuesday night with an 84-82 win at San Antonio. Beard provided the heroics, hitting a 16-footer with 1.9 seconds left."Everybody in this league knows I want to go left, so they gave me all of my right and I took what they gave me," said Beard, averaging a team-high 19.3 points and 3.1 steals.Beard has averaged 23.5 points as the Mystics have split two games this season with the Dream (4-6), who are allowing 83.8 points per game. Atlanta has lost four of its last five, surrendering an average of 90.2 points during that span.The Dream have the WNBA's worst perimeter defense, allowing opponents to shoot 42.4 percent from 3-point range. That doesn't bode well against a Washington club that makes 39.4 percent of its attempts from beyond the arc.The Mystics also got their inside game on track versus the Silver Stars, outrebounding them 32-24. Washington got a particularly strong effort from forward Crystal Langhorne, who had 13 points and five rebounds off the bench."Our game plan was to establish post presence," Beard said. "We have had a hard time with that earlier in the season. ... Crystal Langhorne is probably our most consistent player."Langhorne tops the Mystics with 8.0 rebounds per game, including a WNBA-leading 3.5 on the offensive glass. She's also one of four players averaging double digits in scoring for Washington, posting 12.0 points per game.Langhorne will likely be matched up at times with former Mystic and fellow Queens, N.Y. native Chamique Holdsclaw, who is averaging a team-high 14.6 points in her first season with the Dream.Holdsclaw had 14 points against Minnesota on Tuesday night, but Atlanta lost 91-85 to remain one victory shy of eclipsing last season's total.The Dream again struggled to fight through screens, allowing Lynx shooters to get open from long range. Minnesota made 50 percent (13 for 26) of its 3-point attempts.Atlanta was able to stay in the game with another strong offensive performance. The Dream are averaging 81.9 points while shooting 46.4 percent on the season.Iziane Castro Marques had a career-high 31 points versus the Lynx. She's averaging 11.6, but was held scoreless in Atlanta's 77-71 loss at Washington on June 7.The Dream avenged that loss June 19, beating the Mystics 93-81 at home. All five Atlanta starters scored in double figures, with Sancho Lyttle posting 20 points and 13 rebounds.SPONSORED HEADLINES

I've added a few designs to the mix. Similar style, but changed a bit. I'm going to stick with the Half Empty instead of the Haf Mpty because as the first poster says, it's confusing. I used Haf Mpty (i.e. Half Empty) because it describes my attitude toward a lot of things and it's the screen name I use here on HBT. It's also just a good name for a brewery, but maybe not spelled all goofy. Check this and give me your input. Here is the original design: Here's the alternate spelling, and the spelling I'm going to stick with: Here are the latest versions: And my favorite up to this point: Let me know what you think. I appreciate the feedback.
Your brewery name is...how to put this delicately...impossible to pronounce. Needs more vowels!
I like the first one. The glass makes the E even if you don't get that mpty still sounds like empty. I think it's one of the best names I've seen in a while.
Thanks for the input twofieros. I tried to work with the logo a little bit to make the beer glass a bit more of an obvious "E" but I just couldn't get it to work. I think I am going to stick with the Half Empty though, rather than the Haf Mpty. It is less confusing and that's a good think. I have new designs posted above. Tell me what you think.
Yeah much better, I had zero idea that was what you were going for in the initial logo, honestly. I like the last one the best, it's eye catching and trendy without being obvious (but in a good way)
Yep, the last one! Nice!
Cool. Thanks guys. I appreciate the input.

You bring baby home from the hospital excited to begin cloth diapering right away. A few days go by and feel certain your cloth diapers are working out as you hoped. A few days later…"BAM!"
All of a sudden your diapers are leaking and you cant figure out why. You ask yourself, "What am I doing wrong?", "Are these diapers no good?", "Do I have detergent build up?", "Is that even possible? These are brand new diapers!"
On Friday we posted about how to build a cloth diaper stash, most specifically, Emi of The Cloth Diaper Report's question, "How did you decide on what styles and brands of diapers to purchase.".

The pleasure of golf and nature together
A warm welcome awaits you here in Damme Golf & Country Club.
Our 18 holes Championship Course, the 9 holes Presidents Nine and 9 holes Compact (short course), all in harmony with nature give to golfers of all levels a wonderful golfing experience.
Set in the heart of the Flemish "polders" the holes meander through this beautiful region.
The club which is a member of both the Flemish Golf Federation (VVG) and the Royal Belgium Golf Federation and of course the RBGF is a member of the European Golf Association. They have links with the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews who is the governing authority for the rules of golf.
The base line of the club is "The Pleasure of Golf and Nature Together" and as the manager Chris Morton says "the biggest compliment we have ever had was when a visitor remarked that you don't need a set of clubs to enjoy the course, just take a walk through this glorious nature".
And when we had the Essex PGA Pro Am by Leisure Link here in October Mr David Ferret said of our President's Nine "The unexpected highlight of our three day tournament was the new nine holes at Damme. A great mix of well designed, risk and reward golf holes. It's not often that you play new golf holes in such good condition and where each tee brings a new challenge, a proper thinking golfers dream",
Chris who is member of both the PGA of Great Britain and ex -President of the PGA of Belgium says that we look very well after the golf areas of the course, but all those out of play areas we leave alone and let Mother Nature do the rest. This is what creates this unique environment.
Damme is a club for both members and visitors, for beginner golfers with our very successful start to golf programme and Compact Course and also a challenge for the better players, with Belgian Ryder Cup player Nicolas Colsaerts as course record holder (66 in 2013).
We look forward to having the pleasure of your company here Damme so that you can enjoy "The Pleasure of Golf and Nature Together".
Construction works on the 17th & 18th Holes has begun
Work has started on the 17th & 18th holes which will be completed mid October and some time early summer 2015 (if we have good weather this winter and next spring).
The 17th will become a longer par 3 of about 200m and the 18th a wonderful par 5 finishing hole of about 440m. This combined with the the changes to our 9th hole to make it a par 4, will leave us once again with a par 72.
The dream since 1995 is at last realised!
On Saturday 28th June the President Mr. Frank Donck hit the opening drive on the first hole of the long awaited President's Nine. The course is named after Frank's father Mr. Josef Donck, the instigator behind the new nine hole course in Damme and former President, who died in 2009.
The President's Nine is reseved for members only until the 1st September and then will be open in combination with the existing front 9 holes to form an 18 hole course whilst works are done to the 17th and 18th holes of the existing Championship course.
We hope to have all 27 holes up and running in June 2015.
A warm welcome is assured when you visit Damme Golf and Country Club. Situated between the medieval Flemish towns of Bruges and Damme the unique polder landscape stretches towards the sea. The scenery has a very particular charm, which you can fully enjoy at the Damme Golf & Country Club. "It goes without saying that the greens and whole course are meticulously maintained", says manager Chris Morton. "But beyond the areas of the course which are "in play' we leave alone, so that Mother Nature can do her work. Natural ponds and small woods give our members and guests an authentic taste of the polders". And as a visitor recently told me, "you don't need any clubs to enjoy being on the course. Just walking around the course and having the pleasure of seeing such fantastic wildlife in such a beautiful setting, is a pleasure on it's own." This is the course to play for the pleasure of golf and nature together.

How Will Pacific Sunwear (PSUN) Stock React To This Analyst Action Today?
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Pacific Sunwear of California
(PSUN - Get Report) was downgraded to "neutral" from "buy" at B. Riley.
The firm lowered the apparel company's price target to $2.10 from $4.25 citing promotional environment of its stores and reduced EBITDA expectations.
Shares of Pacific Sunwear of California closed at $2.01 yesterday.
Must read: Warren Buffett's 25 Favorite Stocks
Separately, TheStreet Ratings team rates PACIFIC SUNWEAR CALIF INC as a Sell with a ratings score of D-. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation:
"We rate PACIFIC SUNWEAR CALIF INC (PSUN) a SELL. This is driven by multiple weaknesses, which we believe should have a greater impact than any strengths, and could make it more difficult for investors to achieve positive results compared to most of the stocks we cover. The company's weaknesses can be seen in multiple areas, such as its generally high debt management risk, disappointing return on equity, poor profit margins and generally disappointing historical performance in the stock itself." Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:- The debt-to-equity ratio is very high at 10.82 and currently higher than the industry average, implying increased risk associated with the management of debt levels within the company. Along with this, the company manages to maintain a quick ratio of 0.16, which clearly demonstrates the inability to cover short-term cash needs.
- Return on equity has greatly decreased when compared to its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a signal of major weakness within the corporation. Compared to other companies in the Specialty Retail industry and the overall market, PACIFIC SUNWEAR CALIF INC's return on equity significantly trails that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
- The gross profit margin for PACIFIC SUNWEAR CALIF INC is currently lower than what is desirable, coming in at 29.43%. Regardless of PSUN's low profit margin, it has managed to increase from the same period last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, PSUN's net profit margin of -6.07% significantly underperformed when compared to the industry average.
- PSUN's stock share price has done very poorly compared to where it was a year ago: Despite any rallies, the net result is that it is down by 46.97%, which is also worse that the performance of the S&P 500 Index. Investors have so far failed to pay much attention to the earnings improvements the company has managed to achieve over the last quarter. Naturally, the overall market trend is bound to be a significant factor. However, in one sense, the stock's sharp decline last year is a positive for future investors, making it cheaper (in proportion to its earnings over the past year) than most other stocks in its industry. But due to other concerns, we feel the stock is still not a good buy right now.
- PACIFIC SUNWEAR CALIF INC reported significant earnings per share improvement in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. The company has demonstrated a pattern of positive earnings per share growth over the past two years. We feel that this trend should continue. This trend suggests that the performance of the business is improving. During the past fiscal year, PACIFIC SUNWEAR CALIF INC continued to lose money by earning -$0.71 versus -$0.78 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings (-$0.28 versus -$0.71).

Forget Bollywood. India's independent music scene is headed in entirely new directions.
NEW DELHI, India — Vijay Nair, would-be Richard Branson of Indian rock, was still a kid when he floated the country's first artist management company, Only Much Louder, back in 1999. All he really wanted to do was tour with some of the garage bands he loved. Now he's almost famous.
Here's what happened. Nair was a normal 16-year-old South Indian geek living (and rocking) in Mumbai and trying to fly under the radar of parents intent on turning him into an engineer, when he got a gig working for a web design company that was making sites for Indian bands. Then one day the members of Pentagram, an up-and-coming rock act, asked him if he'd like to be their manager. Bye bye, engineering school.
"Basically, what 17-year-old kid wouldn't jump at the chance to travel and hang out with a rock band," said Nair in a phone interview with GlobalPost.
His parents bought the story that it would only be a year "break" from studying before he went to college. But Nair soon had much bigger plans. Within a year he was managing two more acts, and he'd booked gigs for Pentagram in Glastonbury and Estonia — breaking the group into the "mainstream" world of European rock. And that was just the beginning.
Fast forward 5 years, and Only Much Louder has 14 employees, reps three bands exclusively as their official manager and arranges gigs for a bunch more. The company books about 200 gigs a year these days, and recently set up Counter Culture Records, its own record label and distribution arm — releasing more than 10 albums in the first year.
"The biggest thing that has changed is that artists now are only performing their own music, as opposed to covers," said Nair. "That changes many things, because once you have your own material, then you can do albums, concerts with only your stuff playing — it changed the whole value chain in that sense."
With $500,000 in annual revenue, OML isn't exactly poised to break into the Fortune 500. But as AC/DC's Angus Young will tell you, it's a long way to the top if you wanna rock and roll. And with the British Council's selection of Nair for its International Young Music Entrepreneur award in 2010 and the naming of OML as one of India's coolest companies by a top business magazine, OML's already making waves. More importantly, along with a handful of other startups, Nair's brainchild is giving the country's indie music scene license to, well, rock.
"Artist management as a concept never existed in India," said Arjun S. Ravi, the founder and editor of the online music magazine indiecision. "The bands would either manage themselves or they'd have a friend who'd book them gigs. [OML] is creating a business model of the way things can be done in India. It's not the way things should be done, or how things can be done abroad, but it's how things can be done here. India is a very specific market."
India's music industry has always been dominated by the soundtracks churned out by Bollywood. Penned and recorded by side musicians and so-called "playback singers," this bouncy, upbeat pop music is then lip-synced by the film industry's mega stars and receives nearly limitless promotion through TV trailers and the country's dozen-odd music video channels. But even though famous playback singers and singer-composers like Slumdog Millionaire's A.R. Rahman occasionally perform at socialite weddings and awards ceremonies, the combination of Bollywood's heavily produced studio sound and the dominant role of side musicians rather than bands has until recently prevented the evolution of any real live music scene.
"Even in Bombay four or five years ago we did not have many venues that would have live music performances regularly," said Ravi. "For awhile we only had one venue, and bands could not play anywhere."
Now, however, with the emergence of Only Much Louder and similar companies, peer-to-peer file sharing and new internet-savvy bands, India's independent music scene is in the midst of an unprecedented boom.

Fletcher odd man out in cabinet switch
Harper's shift in focus costs disabled MP
With every cabinet shuffle, there are winners and losers. Monday's overhaul of the federal cabinet by Prime Minister Stephen Harper was no exception.
Shelly Glover is a big winner. The Saint Boniface MP was not only appointed to cabinet, but given the demanding Heritage portfolio to oversee.
Portage-Lisgar MP Candace Bergen is also a winner. Former parliamentary secretary for public safety, Bergen garnered national attention when she sponsored a private members' bill to abolish the long-gun registry. She becomes secretary of state for social development, a newly-created junior post.
The list of cabinet shuffle losers from Manitoba is short: Winnipeg MP Steven Fletcher, a junior minister for five years, was dropped altogether. Fletcher is the first quadriplegic elected to the House of Commons, and the first ever appointed to cabinet.
First ministers rarely comment on demotions, so we'll never know for sure why Fletcher was left out. Harper would only say this shuffle was about "generational change." Given that Fletcher is only 41, a veritable toddler in politician years, that doesn't reveal much about his demotion.
-- Cabinet shuffle 'loser' Steven Fletcher
We also know it wasn't his health, per se. In a statement, and in a subsequent interview with the Free Press, Fletcher made it clear he wanted to stay. He also did not use his health as an excuse, an easy way to avoid the humiliation of being demoted. He had suffered a setback in 2012 that required surgery. However, since then he has been, once again, arguably the nation's most active politician in a wheelchair. Fletcher promised he would run again in 2015.
It was clear he was taking the demotion hard. In one of the greatest exit lines ever in Manitoba politics, Fletcher lamented the manner in which he was dropped. "I would have preferred to have left cabinet the traditional way -- with a sex scandal."
That's pretty stoic stuff. However, Fletcher's comment reveals a fundamental truth in politics: it's actually quite hard to get tossed from cabinet once you're in. Not impossible, mind you. Just difficult. To what, then, can we attribute this decision?
Again, Fletcher offered a modicum of insight. In his statement, Fletcher said the prime minister's priority in this cabinet shuffle was adding more women. "I agree," Fletcher said. "Gender distribution is an important part of any cabinet composition."
There is a consensus that Harper's focus on gender and youth is well-timed. The Conservative government has seen the Liberals vault into the lead of most opinion polls on the strength of Justin Trudeau's leadership. With this shuffle, Tory strategists are essentially endorsing the view outside the party that Trudeau's youth requires a targeted response.
Fletcher did not mention geography, but that was also a consideration. Glover seemed predestined to step into the role of regional minister, left vacant when Public Safety Minister Vic Toews resigned last week. However, unless Fletcher left, Manitoba would have had two Winnipeg ministers, something rural Tories would not have allowed.
And yet, even though he may have been the wrong gender and represented the wrong riding, Fletcher is still a compelling character, having overcome a debilitating injury to forge a successful political career. In fact, until this moment, Fletcher has really only known political success.
In 2004, he twice had to win nominations -- once for the Canadian Alliance and then another time when the CA and Progressive Conservatives merged -- to run federally in Charleswood-St. James. He then defeated Liberal star candidate Glen Murray, who resigned as Winnipeg mayor for what many Grits believed was a safe seat.
How could someone who generated this narrative and brought such honour to his party end up the odd man out?
Even though his is a compelling story, Fletcher has never been a particularly sympathetic character within his party. He was not well-liked when he was president of the provincial Tories. As a result, there are many conservatives of different brands in this province who were quick to express doubt when he was appointed to a cabinet post.
Some Tories complained he was, for obvious reasons, difficult to communicate with and frequently unavailable due to the complex logistics needed to get him from place to place. His recent health challenges likely fuelled concern he was, notwithstanding his successes, ultimately unable to do the job.
It is important to note that other than vague comments about Fletcher's performance, there is no hard evidence he wasn't up to the job. It is quite easy in that context to imagine the criticism levelled at Fletcher was, in essence, proof that far too many of us are still uncomfortable in the presence of someone with a profound disability.
When it comes to competence, politics has always made room for an unhealthy number of living, breathing examples of the Peter Principle. Especially when there are other political considerations in play. In this instance, it appears Fletcher had neither the gender, the riding or, it appears, the support within the party to retain his cabinet post.
Fletcher overcame great obstacles to succeed in politics. Ultimately, however, he could not overcome politics itself.

I LOVE bamboo sheets (see my other review), so I had to try this robe. I was afraid after reading the negative review about the thinness, but I'm familiar with bamboo, it's Not like cotton. If you're looking for a "thick plush Turkish-style" robe, bamboo is not for you. This robe is slightly thinner than a good quality bathrobe (30%), but 40% heavier in weight, so I'm happy with the thickness. It's much softer, silkier & warmer than cotton. Like bamboo towels, it doesn't "grab" the water as quickly as cotton, but you won't notice in a robe. It can absorb much more water than cotton & still be warm, and dries much faster (never moldy odor). It says size Large on the tag & it's generous, like a Men's Large. 49"L (from seam at back of neck to hem), 25"W (seam of shoulder to shoulder across back) & 24" (length from shoulder seam to end of sleeve). The black color looks black to me. Wash once before wearing & you won't have trouble with lint after that, and like all bamboo Never use fabric softener or dryer sheets (will decrease absorbency). FYI, it's towel/terry cloth texture, NOT velour. Oh well, you can't have everything :) ! Otherwise, I'm very happy with it!
this was not a good quality I love bamboo towels and robes in past but this was a rip off
I purchased this robe in Navy for my husband and both my husband and I are very impressed with the quality, weight and beautiful shade of navy blue. Thank you O !

Could you think about adding 'year' to inline citations? I may have to go back to footnotes as I can't come up with a straightforward way of doing this without creating a new cite command which would upset trackers and so on.proposed sign for path integrals
Could someone please design an integral sign that looks like a Cornu spiral? i.e. the usual \int but with curly ends. Typed in LaTeX as \intc, it could go in the esint package or amsmath. It would signify a path integral in physics. \intc_a^b \exp{iS[x(t)]}{\cal D}x(t) would signify taking a sum over all paths from point a to point b. Right now one uses just \int_a^b, but it's not a Riemann or Lebesgue integral.Awesome work

VMKnoppix 5.3.1: CD with Updated Virtualization
Version 20080519 of VMKnoppix (previously known as Xenoppix), a live distribution specifically designed for virtualization has just been released.
The live system is based on Knoppix Version 3.5.1, which Klaus Knopper introduced at Cebit 2008 and released at the end of March. This means that it is actually based on the Debian Lenny branch.
The Japanese developers behind VMKnoppix have added current versions of virtualization software including Xen Version 3.2.1, dated May 19. The system also includes the Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM), the Qemu emulator version 0.9.1, which supports AMD's ADM-V technology, along with User Mode Linux (UML), Virtualbox, Bitvisor and the accelerated Qemu variant KQemu.
The developers also supply the Inetboot and Etherboot/GPXE programs to support loading of network-based boot images. Further components facilitate the deployment of virtualized systems in trusted computing environments.
The new VMKnoppix release is available for downloading via HTTP, FTP and Bittorent. A PDF provides a short guide to the distribution and will fit on a CD.

Amy Poehler To Be Fallon's Last Guest, Meyers' First Guest on LATE NIGHT
By Jake Kroeger on January 21, 2014
As announced earlier, Jimmy Fallon will have Will Smith and U2 as his first guests as the new host of The Tonight Show. But what about Late Night? In perhaps a symbolic bridge in eras of comedy, Amy Poehler will be both the last guest on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon before Fallon goes to The Tonight Show on February 17th and the first guest on Late Night with Seth Meyers. We can expect that these will both be heartfelt, funny episodes, and it gives more exposure to NBC's latest overall deal signee.
Meanwhile, Billy Crystal, who was Jay Leno's first guest on The Tonight Show, will also be his last, bookending the run with a February 6th appearance. That'll be a span of over 20 years, and we can hope that it'll be something along the lines of Bill Murray's appearance on the 20th anniversary of The Late Show with David Letterman; Murray was Letterman's first guest on the show.
There's no word yet on who Conan, Kimmel, Letterman, The Daily Show, Colbert, Pete Holmes, Arsenio, etc. have booked on those days, but that should be equally intriguing.
The last episode of Late Night With Jimmy Fallon just aired and Amy Poehler was definitely not there. What happened?
I also am wondering what happened to Amy Poehler being Fallon's last guest. Nothing against Andy Samberg, but I was looking forward to Fallon and Meyers both having her
That was an awesome inrtiveew!! I loved all the great pics (especially the one with the two of us in it!) And thanks for the shout-out. You're so great! Have I told you that lately? You really are, you know XO

Binding::UpdateSourceExceptionFilter Property
Gets or sets a handler you can use to provide custom logic for handling exceptions that the binding engine encounters during the update of the binding source value. This is only applicable if you have associated an ExceptionValidationRule with your binding.
Assembly: PresentationFramework (in PresentationFramework.dll)
public: property UpdateSourceExceptionFilterCallback^ UpdateSourceExceptionFilter { UpdateSourceExceptionFilterCallback^ get (); void set (UpdateSourceExceptionFilterCallback^ value); }
You cannot set this property in XAML.
Property Value
Type: System.Windows.Data::UpdateSourceExceptionFilterCallbackA method that provides custom logic for handling exceptions that the binding engine encounters during the update of the binding source value.
The ExceptionValidationRule is a built-in validation rule that checks for exceptions thrown during the update of the binding source property. If you have associated the ExceptionValidationRule with your Binding object, you can use this property to set a handler to provide custom logic for handling these exceptions. If an UpdateSourceExceptionFilter is not specified on the Binding, the binding engine creates a ValidationError with the exception and adds it to the Validation::Errors collection of the bound element.
The Text property of the following TextBox is data-bound to a source property Age3 that is of type int. The ExceptionValidationRule checks for exceptions that are thrown during the update of the source property (such as when the user enters a value that cannot be converted to an integer).
<TextBox Name="textBox3" Width="50" FontSize="15" Grid.Row="4" Grid.Column="1" Margin="2" Validation.ErrorTemplate="{StaticResource validationTemplate}" Style="{StaticResource textBoxInError}"> <TextBox.Text> <Binding Path="Age3" Source="{StaticResource ods}" UpdateSourceTrigger="PropertyChanged"> <Binding.ValidationRules> <ExceptionValidationRule/> </Binding.ValidationRules> </Binding> </TextBox.Text> </TextBox>
You can provide custom logic to handle those exceptions. The following example shows how to use the UpdateSourceExceptionFilter property to set an UpdateSourceExceptionFilterCallback.
BindingExpression myBindingExpression = textBox3.GetBindingExpression(TextBox.TextProperty);
Binding myBinding = myBindingExpression.ParentBinding;
myBinding.UpdateSourceExceptionFilter = new UpdateSourceExceptionFilterCallback(ReturnExceptionHandler);
The following is an example implementation of an UpdateSourceExceptionFilterCallback.
object ReturnExceptionHandler(object bindingExpression, Exception exception) { return "This is from the UpdateSourceExceptionFilterCallBack."; }
The UpdateSourceExceptionFilterCallback can also return nullptr, the exception itself, or a ValidationError. For more information, see UpdateSourceExceptionFilterCallback.
For the complete sample, see Binding Validation Sample.

To 92822 02422 to redress your grievances quickly
The Coimbatore Corporation on Tuesday launched a Short Message Service (SMS)-based grievances redress mechanism.
The facility was launched by Mayor S.M. Velusamy and Corporation Commissioner G. Latha in the presence Deputy Commissioner S. Sivarasu and a host of other Corporation officials.
Residents having grievances relating to water supply, street lights, drainage, sanitation, and engineering wings of the Corporation can just send a brief description of the grievance, location, and ward number to 92822-02422.
The message will be processed using a specially designed software.
The message will be sent to the officer concerned with copies to the heads of departments including the Commissioner and Deputy Commissioner. The sender will get a receipt along with a reference number for the complaint.
The Corporation has fixed a time frame for officials concerned to attend to the grievances. The software will generate status reports on daily, weekly basis. This will help the Commissioner and Deputy Commissioner to pull up officials, if needed.
Once the grievance is redressed, it would be updated by the software. This will be communicated to the sender too. The software will be able to process petitions received from the Chief Minister's cell, at grievances redress meetings conducted by Mayor, District Collector, and Corporation Commissioner besides those received in the form of media reports, by post and by e-mails.

See article on original website In the movie Lars and the Real Girl, the main character imagines that a female blow-up doll is his fiancé. To humor Lars, his brother and sister-in-law go along with the charade. Over the course of the movie, more people are drawn into the circle, until eventually the whole town is treating Bianca the blow-up doll as one of its leading citizens. This seems to pretty well describe the debate over the budget deficit, except it's not clear that many people realize it's a charade. The main story is that Lars' budget hawk counterparts are upset that the deficits projected for 2013 or 2019 are too large. They want President Obama to commit to spending cuts and/or tax increases in order to bring these deficits to levels they consider acceptable. The unreality of this picture is striking because the budget hawks seem not to notice that we are in the middle of an economic meltdown. People are losing their homes through foreclosures at the rate of more than 100,000 a month. The default rates on credit cards, car loans and other debt is at record levels. Most of our major banks are effectively insolvent. Home and stock prices have plummeted, destroying most of the wealth of the baby boom cohort as they stand on the edge of retirement. The economy is shedding almost 700,000 jobs a month, with the unemployment rate rapidly approaching the highest level since the Great Depression. In this context we are supposed to be up in arms over the deficit projections for 2013 or 2019? This is a bit like someone complaining about the lawn not being mowed at a time when the house is on fire, it's just not the first priority. And the media all seem to go along with the charade - yes, they are very concerned about the projected deficit for 2013, just as the characters in the movie expressed concern about the health of Bianca the blow-up doll. It is especially annoying to hear the whining from this group of deficit hawks since their whining in prior years helped to drown out serious discussion of the dangers posed by an $8 trillion housing bubble. While some of us were yelling at the top of our lungs about the imminent disaster that would hit the economy when the housing bubble burst, the media chose to focus on these deficit hawks with their dire warnings about budget deficits 40 or 50 years in the future. Because the media and political elites chose to pay more attention to the deficit hawks than those warning about the housing bubble, we now get to enjoy the current economic crisis. And, one result of the economic crisis is (drum roll, please)........record deficits. To put the point so simply that even a Washington Post editor can understand it: because the media highlighted the views of the people who were ranting about the deficit rather than the views of people who understood the economy, we both got a wrecked economy and larger deficits. The moral to this story is that the economy must take priority, not only because the state of the economy is what most directly determines people's well-being, but also because the state of the economy will be the most important determinant of the deficit. The experience of the 1990s provides an example of exactly this sort of story. In January of 1994 the Congressional Budget Office projected that the deficit in 1999 would be $204 billion or 2.4 percent of GDP. This projection incorporated the impact of President Clinton's tax increase and spending cuts. It turned out that there was a surplus of $125 billion in 1999, or 1.4 percent of GDP. This shift from deficit to surplus of 3.8 percentage points of GDP (equivalent to $540 billion in 2009) was not caused by further spending cuts or tax increases, it was caused by the strong economic growth of the period. There is no guarantee that President Obama's policies will be successful in restoring strong growth, but they are clearly a step in the right direction. If we have strong growth, then our deficits will be manageable. If the economy remains weak, the deficit will remain a serious burden no matter how much we raise taxes or cut spending. Someone has to tell the deficit hawks that their blow-up doll is not real. The issue is the economy, not the deficit.

Quick Tip on using Fixed TOW/AntiAir
Quick Tip on using Fixed TOW/AntiAir |
Post: #1
It's a short tip, but it's a decent tip that.. I see a surprising number of people um.. do.. It's avoidable.
If you are scanning a target and you think or see that they are aware of you. Jump off of the turret after firing your first shot. The turret will reload without you parked vulnerably on it. You can therefore avoid dying right away, which might make or break the defense of that area because of randomized respawn logic if you just died on that AA/Tow Turret. You may even have been able to use grenades if you had any to spare, etc etc. Just jump off of it between shots (mostly applicable on TOW launchers, but also on AA if you see patterns in Jets/Helo sweeps.. a good pilot will just automatically bomb the AA sites when they start getting lazed... So jump off of it between their airstrikes, not between the AA reload cycles in that case.) BASICALLY: STOP BEING A FREE KILL. GOSH!

One of the thing that I think could be improved with the game lobby is the addition of automatic dismissal of match alerts. When in the matchmaking system, and a match doesn't start because a player was inactive of said no, the alert that pops up will stay in the notifications until dealt with. It evens stays there after a match was found and completed. In that cause, it is a illogical alert for something that is no longer relevant. Along the same vein, having match invite alerts stay in the notification area is also a nuisance. I might have been invited to couple games by the time I check back on my computer, but those games have already happened and been completed, and the person who invited me is no longer online. This also makes these match invites alerts illogical and a nuisance. What would be nice would be the addition of some automated method of removing alerts that are no longer relevant.

Apple vs. GM: Ayn Rand knew the difference. Do you?
Apple acts like a producer. GM acts like a looter. It's a key distinction that Ayn Rand laid out in 'Atlas Shrugged.'
The House Ways and Means Committee is now reviewing President Obama's "Financial Crisis Responsibility Fee," a bank tax that will fall on some institutions that never asked for money from the Troubled Asset Relief Program, never took TARP money, or already paid back TARP money. In promoting the measure, supporters have been invoking widespread anger over bank bailouts, brazenly ignoring the fact that this punitive tax would punish businesses that eagerly fed at the public trough in the wake of the crisis as well as those that did not.
Since the advent of capitalism, businessmen have been denounced for the corrupt actions of a few political profiteers. To help understand that there is a distinction, consider two characters in Ayn Rand's 1957 novel "Atlas Shrugged." In the book, Rand describes two opposite kinds of businessmen – those she calls the "producers" and those she calls the "looters."
The producers, such as Hank Rearden, inventor of a new metal stronger and cheaper than steel, work tirelessly to create products that improve human life. The looters are basically pseudobusinessmen, like the incompetent steel executive Orren Boyle, who get unearned riches by getting special favors from politicians. Their business isn't business, but political pull.
It is the producers who make life possible: who keep grocery shelves stocked; who discover new lifesaving drugs; who make computers faster, buildings taller, and airplanes safer.
The looters, on the other hand, leech off the wealth created by producers.

Just got my lift kit today. It includes Bilstein 5100s for the front and 1.5" cast iron blocks for the rear.
After a close look at the 5100s, I am a little worried about the small size of the C-clips used to set the height of the strut. There could easily be over 1000lbs of stress on these C-clips when hitting bumps at high speed. The spring seat sits nice on the C-clip, but I just wonder about the stregnth of the design. After all, the clip is no thicker than a dime. Has anyone heard of this failing?

At CES 2014, BMW Showed How It's Done
For example, if at 5:30 p.m. every weekday when it's raining and you're alone in the car leaving work you tend to set the climate system a certain way and drive a particular route to the gym, it will set the systems accordingly. It may just have a 94% probability of hitting your actual preferences right on the money, saving you the time to enter the preferred settings.
In the broader context, however, it was BMW that stole the CES attention this year. Why? No, I'm not talking about the company's impressive self-driving race car demonstration. Good or bad, self-driving cars remain several years out and don't determine purchase decisions in 2014.
Rather, it was BMW's fleet of well over 50 i3 cars available for anyone to drive that proved to be the 2014 CES highlight. Why is this?
The BMW i3 is without a doubt the single most innovative and differentiated car that is hitting the market this year. Only the Tesla (TSLA) and the two GM cars -- Chevrolet Volt and Cadillac ELR -- can match or exceed it in overall capability, such as total range.
The BMW i3 is different than all other cars for some visible reasons: It has an overall geometry that does not resemble any other car in the market. It's short, slightly on the narrow side, somewhat tall, has huge 20-inch wheels that are almost as narrow as motorcycle tires, coach ("suicide") doors and a radically new kind of open interior where you can move from side to side with ease. Under the skin, the BMW i3 has an unique composition in the form of carbon fiber and plastic body panels, resulting in a weight that starts close to 2,000 lbs lower than a Tesla Model S, just as an example. Aside from Tesla and GM's two range-extended electric cars, the BMW i3 stands alone as the most radical car in the market for 2014 -- and you can see it from the first glance. As a result, when a normal person -- who isn't already familiar with the i3 and its engineering -- sees the i3 for the first time, it's one of suspicion. The BMW i3 doesn't look like any other car, and certainly not like a BMW. So how does BMW overcome this potential hurdle of radical unfamiliarity? It has decided to do it in the only way that's certain to work: get people to drive the car -- as many people as possible, and as many influential people as possible. That meant CES.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors
