Weird Wash Plant
This plant grew from seed spontaneously six months ago in my wash. Anyone recognize it?
This is Sacred Datura (Datura wrightii) a large, sprawling, native perennial that grows throughout the Arizona between 1,000 and 7,000 feet elevation. It is a member of the family Solanaceae making it a relative of the tomato, potato, and eggplant. It produces dozens of large, fragrant, white, trumpet-shaped flowers during the warm months and dies back to the ground with winter freezes.
All parts of the plant are toxic so don't forget to thoroughly wash your hands with soap and water after handling sacred datura plant parts or seeds.
Yup, I agree with the others, it's definitely Datura, and probably D. wrightii (which I still call D. meteloides even though wrightii is more current now). It's a great garden plant if you like it, which I do. I've been growing it as a garden plant for 25 years now from my original plant. I've grown it in many different climates (via seed and divisions) although I think it loves AZ the best. They're very good garden perennials, especially if you hack them back now and then, hah!
Since my garden didn't get even a frost this past winter, mine are ahead of schedule since they didn't get cut back. Here's a pic of one of mine in bloom this week with Wilson the tennis ball to show relative size. Neat, fun plants.
They'll attract/host caterpillars for those amazing hummingbird moths/ hover moths too. I always relocate those caterpillars OFF of my tomatoes and peppers and onto the datura, lol. Happy gardening! Let us know if you keep this plant around.
To keep them blooming don't let them produce seed pods. cut off the blooms when they droop or definitely remove the seed pods when they first appear. Grant taught me that years and years ago.
I've probably had the same volunteer plant for 15 years now.
One big warning which is very important for people who have extreme alternative smoking habits. One can smoke parts of this puppy and get high, but its two main harsh alkaloids have a tendency to cause permanent intellectual harm. As I understand it (from a film strip that Coach showed us in Algebra class) the reason is that the strength of those alkaloids varies enormously from plant to plant.
Something to consider if there are really inquisitive teenagers around. Consequences are possibly ghastly. Just saying...
Looks great AJBB! Like Harold said, removing faded blooms or seed pods definitely encourages more flowers. I am religious about it all summer and then eventually the plant outgrows me and a few hidden seed pods ripen without me seeing them, LOL, but hey, that's how I get the occasional seed or seedling to share. Removing them does increase bloom season for sure. Mine bloom off an on from spring until late autumn. Really a great plant, and so fragrant at night and early morning.
At this time of year, when it's still not too hot, the flowers on mine often last for a couple of days/nights, instead of just sunset to mid-morning the following day.
Thanks for posting the pics. Fun updates and discussions too. Happy gardening all!

Who has Phlox Jeana?
Each off season I get a plant or two (or three) in my bonnet and this time it is Phlox Jeana.
I have read that it is exceptionally floriferous (small flowers) for an extended period with very good mildew resistance and is unequalled for a Phlox in terms of bee and butterfly attraction.
Well I procrastinated and the mail order nursery I sometime use sold out of and so I began my search in earnest.
I was able to track one down just today although it isn't a great specimen it is alive (pic below)..
Of course I am interested in your experiences with this particular phlox
From what I have been told it is a bit different than many of the new fangled phlox these days as the individual flowers are smaller. Of course this may not be to your liking.
But it has excellent mildew resistance and it is outstanding in its ability to attract pollinators. In addition it has a very long bloom time (as I am finding is the case for many phlox paniculata these days)..
(If you use Google Images you can see lots of pics of "Jeana".)
Mmmm, very much to my liking - especially the small flowers. As a rule, P.paniculata are my least favourite types of phlox but there are some really interesting and much more garden-worthy ones appearing on the market. Having just bought 3 deep coloured, 'flowerless' (they have bracts) phlox, I am heartened that those huge unwieldy horridly pink and mildewed phlox of gruesome memories are evolving into something more in keeping with current (waterwise, spray-free) garden styles. And pretty too.
Quite likely not, Rouge.....but often, there is considerable international availability if a plant is either a particularly good example of a species. (Rozanne)....or if the plant represents a shift within gardening trends (such as the huge effort to promote new colour breaks in echinaceas) where hybridisers race to respond with their own productions. So yes, if Jeana was more than just another tall phlox, I would expect English growers and breeders to be right on it.
Bluebird, your favorite pink & white with the variegated foliage looks like 'Nora Leigh'. My favorite too! I've had it for year, a very vigorous cultivar with beautiful variegation, and never gets mildew. Love it!
I yahooed Phlox 'Jeana' and it looks interesting. Lots of smaller flowers. Will have to keep an eye out for this one.

- 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup flour
- 2 cups milk
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (about 2 ounces)
- 1/2 cup grated Monterey Jack cheese (about 2 ounces)
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- 1 cup chopped onions
- 1 (10-ounce) bag of fresh spinach, stemmed, rinsed and chopped
- 2 tablespoons chopped garlic
- 2 cans of artichoke hearts, julienned
- Salt and cayenne
- Chips or toast points for serving
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
In a sauce pan over medium heat melt 1/4 cup of the unsalted butter, once bubbly add the flour. Stir the mixture constantly for 5 to 6 minutes to make a blond roux. Whisk in the milk and bring the liquid up to a boil. Season the bechamel with salt and cayenne and simmer for 5 to 6 minutes, or until the liquid is thick and coats the back of a spoon. Remove the sauce from the heat and stir in the cheeses. Set the sauce aside.
In a sauté pan, heat the remaining butter. When the butter is hot, add the onions and sauté for 2 minutes. Stir in handfuls of spinach at a time, until all the spinach is incorporated. Add the garlic and artichoke and sauté for 4 minutes. Season the vegetables with salt and cayenne. Remove the spinach and artichokes from the heat and turn into a mixing bowl. Fold the béchamel sauce into the vegetables. Transfer the mixture into a baking pan and bake the dip for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
Serve the dip with chips or toast points.

'X Factor' Recap: Loose Ends and Bad Judging Before Boot Camp
The final night of auditions showcased hyperactive kids, a lovestruck teen and a morbidly obese minister.
On Thursday's long-awaited final night of auditions, backstage drama came to a head when paramedics were called to 13-year-old contestant Trevor Moran's side. After missing his scheduled performance and looking pale as a ghost, it turned out that Moran was just "really dehydrated" and "overexcited." Kids.
No matter. Moran hit the stage after a few Gatorades (although we could have sworn he took a sip out of Honey Boo Boo's Go-Go Juice), only to deliver a high-energy, highly inappropriate rendition of LMFAO's "Sexy and I Know It." The mix of singing, rapping and grinding somehow wowed the judges, with all four giving Moran an enthusiastic thumbs-up. "You owned the stage," proclaimed LA Reid in a rare lapse of judgment. "Everything that the X Factor's all about, you embody."
PHOTOS: An 'American Idol' to 'X Factor' Timeline
Sixteen-year-old lovesick puppy Owen Stuart dedicated his performance of B.o.B.'s "Airplanes" to his long-distance love, Tori. His declarations of heart-tugging, all-consuming love prompted plenty of eyeball-rolling from the judges (and from the audience in The Hollywood Reporter's Los Angeles office), but Stuart's heartfelt lyrics – rapping his own verses and borrowing the song's chorus – won over Reid, Simon Cowell and Demi Lovato. Britney Spears was not so impressed, saying, "You didn't wow me."
Stuart's response after being voted through: "I won't let you down, Britney. I promise."
The show found its Susan Boyle moment in obese 41-year-old minister Freddie Combs. Confined to a wheelchair, the 540-pound singer (who weighed in at 920 pounds just three years ago) stirred up Freddie Fever with an equally big version of "Wind Beneath My Wings."
The judges enthusiastically let him through to the next round on one condition: Motivating himself to get healthy and get out of that wheelchair. "If you stand, I'm gonna stand right by you," urged Reid.
In another round of questionable judging, 12-year-old Jordyn Foley skated on through to the next round with an off-pitch version of "Tomorrow" from Annie. But first, Cowell hilariously asked the pink- and glitter-covered tween, "You're not gonna sing Annie are you?" A look of pure panic was all the answer he needed before retorting, "I'm actually allergic to 'Tomorrow.'"
And now, frankly, so are we.
PHOTOS: Inside Simon Cowell's 'X Factor' Trailer (Exclusive)
Next stop: Boot camp. And all we can say is -- finally.
On the whole, the hourlong program felt more like a final effort to tie up loose ends before moving on to the next round, which will find the finalists battling to the death (sing-off style!) on a Miami stage. And by the looks of the preview, there will be plenty more heart-wrenching failure to be had. In the words of Cowell: "Now it gets tough. Separates the men from the boys."
Wrapping up a mostly forgettable episode, the show utilized its final few minutes with a look back on the audition rounds as a whole. It was almost as if producers were saying "Hey, remember these people? We did find some talented people. Remember?"
The Good:
It was slim pickings for the good on Thursday, with 16-year-old Lauren Jauregui, a Miami native, delivering an Alicia Keys cover that stretched well beyond her teen years. And hey, we'll give it to the 540-pound minister for totally delivering in the vocal department. As for his stage presence – well, he's got his work cut out for him.
The Bad:
Where to begin? Aside from the aforementioned failures, whom all somehow managed to land the coveted "yes" votes, the show's obligatory fail reel (as we would like to dub it) brought viewers an off-pitch sisterly quartet and a Krysten Colon-worthy temper tantrum from a 17-year-old male contestant.
Best Zingers:
"It was like a nosedive with a corkscrew" -- Demi on a promising contestant that couldn't deliver.
"Years ago I sat on two cats and that's what it sounded like. It was painful" – Simon Cowell to the sister quartet.
"Singing is definitely not your thing, sweetie" – Spears throwing an endearing reference at the end of a cold judgment.

By Pope Francis
4/3/2013 (1 year ago)
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
The first witnesses of the Resurrection are women. This is beautiful, and this is the mission of women, of mothers and women, to give witness to their children and grandchildren that Christ is Risen! Mothers go forward with this witness! What matters to God is our heart, if we are open to Him, if we are like trusting children. But this also leads us to reflect on how in the Church and in the journey of faith, women have had and still have a special role in opening doors to the Lord, in following him and communicating his face, because the eyes of faith always need the simple and profound look of love.
By Pope Francis
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
4/3/2013 (1 year ago)
Published in Europe
Keywords: women, witnesses, resurrection, empty tomb, Vatican, General Audience, New Feminism, Pope Francis
VATICAN CITY (Catholic Online) - In his Wednesday General Audience, Pope Francis specifically addressed the primary role and vocation of women as witnesses of the Resurrection of Jesus and its profound implications both then and now. We offer the Vatican translation in its entirety for our readers below
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Today we turn to the Catechism of the Year of Faith. In the Creed we repeat this phrase: "He rose again on the third day, in accordance with the Scriptures". This is the very event that we are celebrating: the Resurrection of Jesus, the center of the Christian message that has resounded since the beginning and has been handed down so that it may reach us today.
Saint Paul writes to the Christians of Corinth: "For I handed on to you .what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the scriptures; that he was buried; that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the scriptures; that he appeared to Cephas, then to the Twelve"(1 Cor 15:3-5).
This brief confession of faith announces the Paschal Mystery, with the first appearances of the Risen Christ to Peter and the Twelve: the Death and Resurrection of Jesus is the heart of our hope. Without this faith in the Death and Resurrection of Jesus our hope would be weak, but it wouldn'0t even be hope, the Death and Resurrection of Jesus is the heart of our hope. The Apostle says: "If Christ has not been raised, your faith is vain; you are still in your sins" (v. 17).
Unfortunately, there have often been attempts to obscure faith in the Resurrection of Jesus, and doubts have crept in even among believers themselves. A watered down faith, as we would say, not a strong faith. This is because of superficiality, sometimes because of indifference, occupied by a thousand things considered more important than the faith, or because of a purely horizontal vision of life.
But it is the Resurrection that gives us the greatest hope, because it opens our lives and the life of the world to the eternal future of God, to full happiness, to the certainty that evil, sin, death can be defeated. And this leads us to live everyday realities with more confidence, to face them with courage and commitment. The Resurrection of Christ shines a new light on these daily realities. The Resurrection of Christ is our strength!
But how was the truth of faith in Christ's Resurrection transmitted? There are two kinds of witness in the New Testament: some are in the form of the profession of the faith, namely, synthetic formulas that indicate the center of the faith. Instead, others are in the form of an account of the event of the Resurrection and the facts connected to it.
The form of the profession of faith, for example, is what we have just heard, or that of the Letter to the Romans where Paul writes: "for, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved "(10.9). From the earliest days of the Church, faith in the Mystery of Death and Resurrection of Jesus is steadfast and clear.
Today, however, I would like to dwell the second, on testimony in the form of the accounts that we find in the Gospels. First, we note that the first witnesses to this event were the women. At dawn, they go to the tomb to anoint the body of Jesus, and find the first sign: the empty tomb (Mk 16:1). This is followed by an encounter with a Messenger of God who proclaims: Jesus of Nazareth, the Crucified One, he is not here, he is risen (cf. vv. 5-6).
The women are driven by love and know how to accept this proclamation with faith: they believe, and immediately transmit it, they do not keep it for themselves. They cannot contain the joy of knowing that Jesus is alive, the hope that fills their heart. This should also be the same in our lives. Let us feel the joy of being Christian!
We believe in the Risen One who has conquered evil and death! Let us also have the courage to "go out" to bring this joy and light to all the places of our lives! The Resurrection of Christ is our greatest certainty, it is our most precious treasure! How can we not share this treasure, this beautiful certainty with others! It's not just for us it's to be transmitted, shared with others this is our testimony!
Another element. In the professions of faith of the New Testament, only men are remembered as witnesses of the Resurrection, the Apostles, but not the women. This is because, according to the Jewish Law of the time, women and children were not considered reliable, credible witnesses.
In the Gospels, however, women have a primary, fundamental role. Here we can see an argument in favor of the historicity of the Resurrection: if it were a invented, in the context of that time it would not have been linked to the testimony of women. Instead, the evangelists simply narrate what happened: the women were the first witnesses.
This tells us that God does not choose according to human criteria: the first witnesses of the birth of Jesus are the shepherds, simple and humble people, the first witnesses of the Resurrection are women. This is beautiful, and this is the mission of women, of mothers and women, to give witness to their children and grandchildren that Christ is Risen! Mothers go forward with this witness! What matters to God is our heart, if we are open to Him, if we are like trusting children.
But this also leads us to reflect on how in the Church and in the journey of faith, women have had and still have a special role in opening doors to the Lord, in following him and communicating his face, because the eyes of faith always need the simple and profound look of love.
The Apostles and disciples find it harder to believe in the Risen Christ, not the women however! Peter runs to the tomb, but stops before the empty tomb; Thomas has to touch the wounds of the body of Jesus with his hands. In our journey of faith it is important to know and feel that God loves us, do not be afraid to love: faith is professed with the mouth and heart, with the word and love.
After the apparitions to women, there were others: Jesus becomes present in a new way: He is the Crucified One, but his body is glorious; He did not return to an earthly life, but a new condition. At first they did not recognize him, and only through his words and deeds were their eyes opened: the encounter with the Risen Lord transforms, it gives new strength to faith, an unshakable foundation. The Risen Christ also reveals Himself to us with many signs: Sacred Scripture, the Eucharist, the other Sacraments, charity, these gestures of love bring a ray of the Risen One.
Let us be enlightened by the Resurrection of Christ, let us be transformed by His power, so that through us the signs of death give way to signs of life in the world! I see that there are many young people in the Square! Young boys and girls, to you I say bring forth this certainty to the world: the Lord is Alive and walks beside us on our life's journey!
Bring forth this hope, be anchored in this hope, the hope that comes from heaven! Be anchored and bring forth the hope! You witnesses of Christ bring forth hope to this world that is aged by wars and sin! Go forward young people!

Quick & Easy Travel Snack: Chia Bread!
For better or worse, rice cakes have become one of my gluten-free travel staples. They're easy to find, are surprisingly sturdy, and make a decent alternative to sandwich bread when staying with non-GF friends and family. Yet rice cakes are boring and not especially nutritious (possibly even bad for you). I plan to replace them with this Super Power Chia Bread from Oh She Glows.

How To Make Easy Rosemary Focaccia
I'll be honest with you: I don't care for focaccia that's topped with a lot of stuff. I like my focaccia to be a simple, herby bread with the emphasis on salt and olive oil. I may allow for one or two additions besides the sea salt, olive oil and herbs. But that's it. You may feel differently, and of course, that's just fine. You can use this recipe as a base for all your favorite focaccia toppings. But just for today, try it plain and simple with a glass of deep red wine and maybe a wedge of cheese on the side. It's really quite delicious!

What's the word on the highly anticipated (by me anyway) wine bar coming to Georgia Ave? Well a reader hears they're no longer coming. I've sent an email for confirmation but haven't heard back yet.

Ed. Note: We used to feature these renovations from PoPville back in the day but it's been a while since I've found folks willing to share. A good time for me to say, which I sadly realize I have to say, if you have negative comments about the reno please consider keeping it to yourself. Critiquing the renovations is not the point of these posts. It's simply to show what some folks have done. If you like it, obviously, feel free to let them know but again – well let me be clear – don't be a jerk. Thanks. Sorry to have to preface with that. I really do love these features and am fortunate that 2 or 3 three more folks have also agreed to share their renovations. These renovations can be extensive – like a whole house gut or simply a 1/2 bath added, floor refinished or even smaller. It can be a whole series of posts or just one. If you'd like to share one of your projects please email princeofpetworth(at)gmail thanks and thanks for understanding!

"I knew we would replace the windows in our house eventually, but I did not think we would do it in the first year let alone the first five months! However, after doing some research I found it was more cost effective to do all 15 windows at once rather than replace a few at time. Plus many companies have a four (or more) window minimum. I hope no one reading this has to replace windows soon because the initial consultation some of these window companies make you suffer through are terrible. Also, both spouses have to be home for the consultation, which is really annoying if you both work. Our windows were twenty years old and I don't think they were even nice windows the day they were installed. They were so drafty and some of them could not even be unlocked, or it felt like they would break if you forced it! One window also had a small break in the glass.
First we met with Home Depot for a quick estimate on getting one window fixed since the lock on it was broken and that is not too safe. He was prompt and provided us with a quote for $671 Simonton window. He never mentioned lead paint or any of that and I know our house has lead paint in it since it's 100+ years old. If you're dealing with lead paint there is a special process for removing/disposing of the old windows. I also read mixed reviews on buying windows from Home Depot. Furthermore, $671 for a window and installation isn't that cheap. (more…)

Superior Court Judge Susan B. Handy ordered Wednesday that the state return a portion of the $10,000 that New London police seized from a Brainard Street resident in a November 2012 drug raid that yielded no illegal narcotics.
Catrice Williams, who is in her late 20s, had disputed prosecutor Paul J. Narducci's assertion that the cash is the proceeds of drug transactions and is therefore subject to forfeiture.
During the same asset forfeiture hearing, Williams' ex-boyfriend, Tyrone Santiago, unsuccessfully sought the return of more than $2,000 seized from him as part of the same case. Both have previous narcotics convictions.
According to testimony and court documents, police executed a search-and-seizure warrant at 70 Brainard St., Apt. 1, after an anonymous tip line caller and a confidential informant told them there were drug sales at the apartment. The police said they conducted two controlled purchases of illegal drugs at the apartment in the weeks before the raid, during which they observed somebody resembling Williams meet the confidential informant at the door.
At the hearing, Williams, a mother of two who said she works as a nursing assistant and hairdresser, produced tax records, a bill of sale for a car, a record of her casino winnings and other documents. She told the judge she had stored the cash in a boot and other places in her apartment because she was getting ready to move from the area.
Under cross-examination by Narducci, Williams testified that she was paying $950 a month in rent and received $70 a week in child support and approximately $400 a month in food stamps.
The judge pored over the records before ordering that the state return $2,000 of the $10,500 that was seized. Handy said Williams' claim that she had cash from an $1,800 insurance settlement she had received 13 months before the raid was not credible. The judge made a similar finding with respect to a $5,000 tax refund that Williams had received in early 2012. Handy said Williams' alleged casino winnings were not reflected in her tax return and that she did not find it credible that Williams still had a portion of the winnings, given her rent and other expenses.
The judge said she did find it credible that Williams still had $2,000 from a car she had sold earlier in 2012. Williams, unhappy with the ruling, immediately filed an appeal.
Handy rejected the argument of the ex-boyfriend, Santiago, who produced no documents with respect to $2,185 that police found in his wallet that day. Santiago said he had just been released from prison and the Department of Correction had returned $800 that remained in his commissary account. He said his mother had given him about $1,500 so that he could buy Christmas presents.
The judge said Santiago, who had no work history, had not produced any credible evidence and that the cash would be forfeited to the state.

Dot-dash-diss: The gentleman hacker's 1903 lulz
It seems that Neville was a bit peeved at Guglielmo Marconi for many reasons, not the least for his claim that wireless telegraphy was secure, and, like Anonymous and other modern-day hactivists, hacked Marconi's Morse wireless demonstration to the Royal Institution in 1903 to embarrass Marconi and prove him wrong.

My deepest sympathy goes out to Becky's whole family! Loss is hard no matter how you look at it, and even harder when they are so young and have so much life left to live. I got tears in my eyes when I read about the baptism, what a beautiful way to end this life on earth and begin the new one in heaven! Keep the faith and know she is smiling down on all of you, and at peace. She is lucky to have had such a great family and friends!

Wounded Warrior Project Participates in Demonization of Firearms
Those who treasure our priceless Second Amendment liberties need to be very careful where we donate, lest we shoot ourselves in the foot. Anti-Constitutional moonbats can be found behind even the most seemingly benevolent enterprises, including the Wounded Warrior Project, as Tom Gresham of Gun Talk Radio reveals:
We were disappointed when the Leslie Coleman, PR director for WWP, said they couldn't come on the show … because we "are related to firearms."
"While we appreciate the interest in having a WWP representative on your show on Veterans Day we are not able to participate in interviews or activities with media/organizations that are related to firearms," said Ms. Coleman in her email.
Coleman pules that returning vets have used guns to commit suicide. Apparently they would prefer suicides to fling themselves off bridges or the tops of buildings.
WWP also disapproves of knives, refusing to "co-brand" with manufacturers. Vets might cut themselves.
Keeping guns and knives company on the no co-brand list are alcohol and pornography.
Despite the great work WWP does, the gun issue is not trivial, especially in light of the firestorm of anti-gun propaganda the media has whipped up in response to Sandy Hook. Gresham has a "No Shrug" policy that entails never doing business with any outfit that labels gun-owners as undesirables, because to shrug and take the abuse is to participate in a campaign of demonization intended to result in the denial of our right to bear arms.
Good thing WWP doesn't have a monopoly. There is no shortage of organizations that help vets.
On a tip from Chris W. Cross-posted at Moonbattery.

Over the past two weeks, I've done a lot of work on LintRoller.
I recently added an awesome new feature that I think will help a lot of JavaScript developers!
Over the past two weeks, I've done a lot of work on LintRoller.
I recently added an awesome new feature that I think will help a lot of JavaScript developers!
Yesterday I released my first Node.js module, LintRoller.
LintRoller can be easily incorporated into any project to validate your syntax during a Git commit operation. I've written before about Git pre-commit hooks… so let's show an example.
A little more than a year ago, I began playing with Phantom.js. It's an awesome platform for doing a variety of JavaScript-y things… and not long afterwards I created a tool called PhantomLint to automate testing my code against JSLint.
This solution worked well for the past 12 months, but like most developers I wasn't satisfied with my own work.
As a developer, I have probably 1000 things on my personal list of "things/technologies I need to learn". One of those items was to build a Windows 8 app using HTML5, and over the past few days I've successfully managed to build a crappy sample app!
As Windows 8 is scheduled for release soon, I figure many HTML5 developers have not had the time to download/install the pre-release versions. Before I dive into some specifics of getting an ExtJS app to run natively on Windows 8, I wanted to share some general thoughts.
Over the past few years, I've done a number of book reviews on this blog. More than a handful of those have been for Packt Publishing… and I have just found out that they reached 1000 books in their catalog!
I have always encouraged developers to read books as a means to further education. Packt Publishing has a pretty good selection of books for all developer levels and subjects, so I will certainly recommend you check out their current promotion.
Last week I attended ThatConference where I was introduced to the concept of Web Components. Since then I've done a little of reading and watched few screencasts – and I wanted to write down my initial thoughts on the subject. I'm hoping some of you with more knowledge/experience with this topic can educate me – so be sure to add your comments!
ThatConference is a software conference like no other. You are encouraged to bring your family. You are required to break out of your comfort zone. And you are constantly surrounded by bacon.
ExtJS 4.x* has a number of built-in methods for locating components inside an application. Three of the most commonly used are:
There are pros and cons to using each of these methods… but I thought it might be interesting to see if speed would be something to consider.
One of the reasons I started blogging was that I needed a place to archive all of the useful things I've found over the years. Blogging also allows me to share that information with the rest of the world.
I've had to figure this problem out several times now – it's about time I simply write down the solution so that I can find it when I inevitably need to do this again.
Last week at our Chicago Sencha Meetup Group, Chad Glendenin presented DeftJS. A lively discussion followed about why anyone might want to use DeftJS in place of the default MVC bindings that come bundled with Sencha Touch / ExtJS.

Democracy Now! has long covered the issue of climate change. We reported from the U.N. Climate Change Conferences in Warsaw, Doha, Durban, Cancún, and Copenhagen, and from the World Peoples' Summit on Climate Change hosted by Bolivia. We've interviewed many of the world's top scientists, writers, policy makers, activists, indigenous leaders and academics on the issue. We continue to follow the environmental movements to directly confront the root causes of global warming, and to advocate for climate justice, and sustainable alternatives.

Principal District Judges, officials of the AP Judicial Academy and academicians have stressed the need to take better care of children in developing them into good citizens, at a workshop on juvenile justice for judicial officers and other stakeholders of the juvenile justice delivery system, held at the District Courts complex here.
This was the first of the seven workshops being held in the State, as per the directions of the Supreme Court.
Additional Director of the AP Judicial Academy V.S.R. Avadhani said the rules under the juvenile justice Acts must be implemented. Officials at the State level were not acting well, he pointed out while stressing the need for allotment of more funds and amendments to the Acts.
Mr. Avadhani said that cinema, disputes in family, environment outside the houses etc. were found to be the reason for 70 per cent of juvenile delinquency cases.
The National Crime Bureau statistics showed that juvenile crime (committed by those in the 14-18 years age group) had increased from 9.2 per cent of the total crimes during 2008 to 10 per cent at present. Crimes by minors (below 14 years of age) accounted for two per cent of the crimes. The juvenile offenders were forming into groups to commit crimes like robberies and chain snatchings.
In Andhra Pradesh there were more than 34,500 cases of juvenile crime. Principal District Judge of Visakhapatnam Ch. Manavendranath Roy felt that the Government should also protect the children and the police should change the methods of dealing with children. He urged all to treat children as friends and create a good environment for them. Children's needs must be considered as their basic rights, Mr. Roy added.
Children's care should be made a fundamental right, said Principal District Judge of Vizianagaram P. Mutyala Naidu. Mr. Naidu said the police were not following the rules regarding juvenile delinquents.
A case should be closed within four months after filing the FIR but cases were running for several years, he said.

Students Win with Submersible, Remotely Operated Vehicle
A team of engineering students from Early College East is headed to Germany after winning Phoenix Contact's Nanoline contest.
Reflecting the trend around remote control operations in industry, the winning team in this year Nanoline contest took home the prize for its design and construction of the "Delian One Remotely Operated Vehicle". This unmanned vehicle uses Phoenix Contact's Nanoline Controller and nanoNavigator software to remotely maneuver and explore an underwater environment. The Nanoline controls the Delian One's thrusters, so that it can submerge and maneuver underwater. The controller is also used to turn the vehicle's lights and camera on or off.
The team's reward for its winning entry is the opportunity to travel to Hanover, Germany, this April, where they will demonstrate the Delian One in the TectoYou Hall at Hanover Fair, the world's largest industrial tradeshow. TectoYou is a special hall at Hanover Fair dedicated to inspiring young people to consider careers in engineering. Delian One Team members are Thomas Munday, Alex Messmer, Ashley Mullikin, Benjamin Fisher, Aaron Nasser and Claudia Yllanes. The school advisor is John Ebright, and Don Dickinson served as the team's Phoenix Contact mentor.
