The Levites possessed no land (Num. 18:20–24; Deut. 14:29; 18:1), though some may have had private income (Deut. 18:8). The dependence of the Levites on the support of the people may explain the reluctance of many Levites to leave Babylonia (Ezra 8:15–20).

Dean Foods Company Stock Downgraded (DF)
By TheStreet Wire | 08/29/11 - 08:32 AM EDT
TheStreet) -- Dean Foods Company (NYSE: DF) has been downgraded by TheStreet Ratings from hold to sell. The company's weaknesses can be seen in multiple areas, such as its deteriorating net income, generally weak debt management, disappointing return on equity, poor profit margins and weak operating cash flow. Highlights from the ratings report include:NEW YORK (
- The company, on the basis of change in net income from the same quarter one year ago, has significantly underperformed when compared to that of the S&P 500 and the Food Products industry. The net income has significantly decreased by 212.8% when compared to the same quarter one year ago, falling from $44.79 million to -$50.51 million.
- The debt-to-equity ratio is very high at 2.52 and currently higher than the industry average, implying that there is very poor management of debt levels within the company. Along with the unfavorable debt-to-equity ratio, DF maintains a poor quick ratio of 0.73, which illustrates the inability to avoid short-term cash problems.
- 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 Food Products industry and the overall market on the basis of return on equity, DEAN FOODS CO underperformed against that of the industry average and is significantly less than that of the S&P 500.
- The gross profit margin for DEAN FOODS CO is currently lower than what is desirable, coming in at 25.10%. It has decreased from the same quarter the previous year. Along with this, the net profit margin of -1.50% is significantly below that of the industry average.
- Net operating cash flow has decreased to $142.47 million or 17.82% when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, when comparing to the industry average, the firm's growth rate is much lower.

CBNNews.com - JERUSALEM, Israel - Students at Hebrew University's Givat Ram and Mt. Scopus campuses were not surprised by the arrest of six students suspected of ties to al-Qaeda.
The Shin Bet (General Security Agency) and the police quietly carried out the arrest operation last week.
According to police, the six students often met at the al-Aqsa Mosque on Jerusalem's Temple Mount, one of Islam's most well-known mosques.
The six confessed to planning terror acts, including a plot last May to attack a helicopter carrying President George W. Bush during his trip to Israel.
The group frequently visited al-Qaeda Web sites for instructions on how to build explosives.
The six students were not particularly well known on campus.
"They were quiet," Giuliani, a fellow classmate, said. "They didn't interact much with the other students. Even during class, they didn't talk much, but if you ask me, what they did, it's like spitting in the well you drink from."
Hebrew University has two Jerusalem campuses, one in Givat Ram and the other on Mount Scopus. The six suspects attended classes on both campuses.
According to fellow students, Arab radicalism can be found on either campus.
"There's a large Arab student body here," one student at the Mt. Scopus campus said.
"At the beginning of the year, they held a large protest against the IDF's blockade of Gaza. They were out there with keffiyehs [traditional Arab headdresses], shouting and antagonizing the Jewish students. When the Jewish students responded, it got violent. Things have been quiet since then, but we know [the undercurrent] is there."
All six suspects were charged with membership in a terrorist organization, and some were also charged with possessing propaganda supporting a terror organization, soliciting others to join a terror organization, and aiding the enemy during war.

"It's not all bad," the male employee said. "The resort needs a lot of renovation - and this group has the money to do it."
This employee also said that Sagbolt officials discussed an intention of "going green," reducing the amount of gas-powered vehicles used in day-to-day operations to help the environment while saving money.
"They are trying to make the Sagamore viable again," he said. "It's just too bad so many people had to lose their jobs in the process - The Sagamore is a huge employer in this area."
Apparently renowned gold pro Tom Smack was among Sagamore employees that were fired. In a telephone interview, he said he was severed from his duties. Smack was informed last Thursday that he was terminated immediately, he said.
Smack, 64, said he would be seeking to maintain his home in Bolton, but would be open to other employment opportunities. Tom Smack and his wife Angie have been in Bolton for 24 years, and Angie has been employed nearly since their arrival at Bolton Central School.

460bhp per tonne. 0-62mph in 3.2 seconds. A top speed of 150mph and over 2g of lateral cornering force. Enough fastness, then, to outpace even the sprightliest grizzly bear. Meet Canada's latest trackday lightweight, the Magnum Mk5.
Vijay Pattni01 November 2013
Magnum Mk5: Canada's BAC Mono
What's this all aboot? New 250bhp, lightweight, rev-hungry track-day tool arrives
It's made by a man named Bruno, whose father Jean-Pierre built Magnum's first formula racer in the late 1960s. This MK5, then, has been a long time coming. It's built for the track but is actually street-legal, much like our favourite lung-crusher, the BAC Mono. Size-wise, think a slightly swollen Lotus Elise.
The Magnum MK5 features a mid-mounted 250bhp four-cylinder engine that revs to a dizzy 11,000rpm - that'll be a bike engine, then - that feeds the rear wheels through a six-speed sequential gearbox activated by a centre-mounted shifter. There's also a limited slip differential, and F1-style pushrod suspension with two-way adjustable dampers front and rear.
A weight of just 545kg results in that healthy power-to-weight ratio, and reduces the strain on those four-piston calipers and ventilated discs - complete with a custom pedal box and cockpit-adjustable brake bias, hidden under 18-inch lightweight alloys.
There's functional aero on the carbon fibre composite bodywork, while inside you get racing carbon fibre seats, six-point harnesses and a suede-wrapped steering wheel with GPS with mounted lap-timer. Serious stuff.
Prices start at 139,000 US dollars excluding taxes and delivery, which is just over £86k before you add VAT. That's a lot more than an Ariel Atom but a lot less than a BAC Mono.
So. Over the years we have witnessed many ambitious attempts to nail the lightweight track day formula. Most have failed spectacularly: the Mono, X-Bow and Atom are the exceptions, not the rule. Reckon the Magnum MK5 stands a chance?
What do you think?

En Plein Airport
Muralists and mosaicists help Sky Harbor's new METRO Light Rail connection take flight.
Airport art, like airport food, has an unflattering reputation. However, that stigma is quickly fading at Phoenix Sky Harbor, where $5.6 million in commissions have turned the airport's recently unveiled PHX Sky Train system into a veritable gallery of high-design terrazzo flooring, funky overhead art and well-appointed pedestrian bridges. Coupled with the new wave of terminal-based gourmet local restaurants at Sky Harbor, the Sky Train art walk makes for an edifying commute – even if you don't have a boarding pass.
Go Mad at MAC
Walk into Bipolar – a provocative new exhibit at Mesa Arts Center – and you might feel obliged to get a little crazy. Collaborating artists Albert Kogel and Alice Leora Briggs have conjured a space that mimics an insane asylum, down to ominous iron bars created by a welder who built and runs a mental institution in Juarez, Mexico. Occupying two opposing U-shaped walls, the exhibit also features psychically-charged paintings by the dementia-dabbling duo. The two agree their styles are worlds apart, which helped bring the bipolar theme to life. "I hope that [those who attend the exhibit] feel a connection with the art, and have their own individual experience," says Tucson-based Kogel. The exhibit runs through August 11. Visit mesaartscenter.com for more information.
Ron Burns
In 1991, Ron Burns turned to painting as an artistic respite from his dog-eat-dog corporate career in marketing and design. Looking down at his beloved mutt, the self-taught artist found his muse. "I was looking for something I could paint that would inspire me for the rest of my life," says Burns, 58, whose Burns Studio is based in Scottsdale. "When I started, no one else was doing it. It was like a new art movement."
Readers Photo Contest: On The Road
For our third annual reader photo contest, "On the Road," you submitted fantastic photos from around the state. We selected the top 10, and readers voted for their favorite. The winner received a getaway to Four Seasons Resort.
Our grand prize winner received three days, two nights in a premier casita at the luxurious Four Seasons Resort Scottsdale at Troon North; dinner for two at its new Proof restaurant; and two 50-minute massages at the Four Seasons Spa.
Two-Step Program
Embrace your inner honky-tonker at the Valley's newest country bar, The Western. Located at "Cowboys and Indian School" in Old Town Scottsdale, this live-music-deluged watering hole aims to conjure the dirty-fun essence of a vintage Texas roadhouse, complete with an oak dance floor big enough for a legion of line-dancers. Nightlife mogul Tucker Woodbury and music promoter Charlie Levy, who previously collaborated on the Crescent Ballroom,
Goulding's Lodge
For Annie Lopez, creating art is a way to neutralize her inner demons. Call it art as exorcism. "If something bad is going on, I put it in my artwork, hang it on the wall and release it," says Lopez, who took solace in her craft after the death of her first son. "It lightens my burden."
Lauren Strohacker
A herd of 14 deer have taken over an empty lot in Downtown Phoenix. The life-sized animals are part of artist Lauren Strohacker's ongoing attempt to reconnect man and nature by creating imagined habitats lost in the wake of human expansion. The sculptural installation, titled "Encounter," is located at 408 E. Roosevelt St. and is part of InFlux, a temporary public art project.

The ThreadBarons
If the ThreadBarons' moniker is a play on the word "threadbare," it fits the weathered Americana made by the Denver quartet. On this self-titled disc, the act takes a well-worn, no-bullshit approach, injecting a mid-tempo country shuffle on tunes like "Window in the Winter" and "West Virginia" — the latter of which features fiddle playing from Violent Femmes frontman Gordon Gano, who also plays on two other tracks — and digging into slow rockers like "Don't Want to Hurt (Like That No More)." The album is a mix of poignant tunes and catchy numbers, including "Keep on Moving," which features the warm singing of keyboardist Jennifer Braid, who shares lead-vocal duties on The ThreadBarons with drummer Dan Sidor and bassist Daniel Putrino.

Allison's eyes widen when she realised how she just acted, looking down towards the floor nervously. She looks back up at him when he starts to talk about his adopted daughter. Slowly she shakes her head at his words.
"N-no, I'm sorry for s-snapping like that. I'm j-just sensative to m-my nervousness. I h-hate people trying to a-assure me things are ok a-and making it s-seem like th-this is something they can fix. A-and I'm sure th-that would of helped someone else, i-it was just not the best way to approach me. P-please don't be so apologetic. I-it will make it h-harder in the long run to t-talk to people. N-never let fear of failure stop you f-from trying, i-is something my doctor says. I choose to b-believe that." She said, trying to favor him with a nervous smile.
Nikoli seemed to cheer up a bit with what she said, but still looked sad. He looked at the floor for a second, gathering his thoughts, before speaking, trying his best not to mess up again, and his efforts were clearly shown on the somewhat look of fear on his face as he spoke.
"I'm sorry, I just don't handle guilt well at all. The concept of hurting others or making them feel bad bothers me immensely, it makes me feel terrible... But enough feel sorry for myself. I understand how you feel, back when I went through some struggle people kept giving me this looks... these pitying eyes... It really bothered me, so maybe I should not be doing anything like that to you. But also, knowing that people cared about me enough to show it adn try to help me made me feel better as well."
He smiled at her, seeming to have cheer up. He fixed his posture and sat up straight, looking her in the eye.
"But I talk too much about myself. And don't feel sorry for snapping, if you don't like something, say it. Always be honest and fix what bothers you is what I say. Don't be afraid to offend those who offend you. Also, I like a person with passion, I thought it was great that you stood up to me like that, not many people do when stuff bothers them."
"Oh... W-well sorry." She said after he said he felt terrible about 'hurting' others. She smiled back, nodding.
"Y-yes, our f-friends c-caring for us is quite helpful. I th-think the easiest way to d-deal with me is to simply t-talk to me l-like a normal person. I th-think it helps make me c-confident to speak. Ab-about a year ago I c-could barely say a word." She smiles, leaning in a little closer.
"N-no, it is g-good to talk about y-yourself. A-and I c-could of been honest w-without snapping l-like that." She chuckles a bit when he mentions how it was good for her to stand up to him like that.
"T-to be honest it w-was more annoyance than st-standing up to you. Y-you probably would of l-liked me before the incident. Th-then again, I was a b-bit of an arrogant... Erm... Well #$*&@ really." She says, giving out a nervous laugh.
"P-perhaps now I'm t-talking too much about m-myself huh?" She said, smiling nervously towards him.
Nikoli returned the smile, returning to resting his elbows on his knees and leaning slightly forward.
"Not at all. You see, you're interesting and nice to learn about, I'm not. That's the main difference between us."
He pointed at her and then himself as he said that, emphasizing his point.
I can't imagine what happened to you before, and I'm not going to ask you to tell me, but what you were like before that is probably just as great as you are now. I don't think you are any different from a normal person, not at all, if anything better. It's just my ways, which I'm already apologized for."
He gave her a shrug after that, looking away for a second before looking her in the eyes again.
"As for that outburst, I don't think you were mean there at all, nor do I think you were before whatever occurred, but I can't say that because I never met you before."
Allison smiled. "I-I'm not really that interesting. A-and you are p-probably m-more interesting than you th-think." She smiled nervously, but seemed to be sitting comfortably in the chair.
"Y-you are over-compensating again Nikoli. B-but thank you, I see what y-you are getting at. A-and sorry for n-not being as understanding about y-your ways. Guess we g-got a fair bit to learn about each other huh?" She chuckled again. "Maybe not w-with what I said, but how I s-said it was a bit rude. And honestly, a slap might of acc-accompanied that outburst if I was how I was before." She said with a giggle, rocking back and forth on the chair. It seemed to be a happy thing.
Nikoli shrugged.
"I merely go by what I interpret from others, and most people don't seem to interested in me. I'm a fairly boring person honestly, I'm surprised you've managed to not fall asleep while talking to me for this long."
He smiled at her and chuckled lightly.
"I guess we do, but I'd love to get to know you more, you're very nice to talk to."
He chuckled again at her account of her reaction before, imagining if she had slapped him and rubbing his cheek.
"I would have deserved it too honestly. I was more then rude to you, and somewhat did something others did to me that I hated."
He smiled at her rocking, glad to see she was happy.
"Y-yeah well most people aren't very... f-friendly?" She said, looking a bit confused before she let out a light laugh. She nodded back at him.
"And I th-think it would be nice to get to know you. Y-you seem quite nice... And m-more tolerant than most p-people. A lot of people w-would of tried to walk away or 'insist' o-on trying to 'help the poor girl' w-with her problems. Y-you've passed th-the first test in b-becomming my fr-friend." She chuckled at his rubbing action, shaking her head at his words.
"Y-you w-were just trying to h-help, and you d-didn't know that would trigger such a reaction. N-never be sorry for good in-intent. I-if it was someone else i-it might of been helpful." She said, becomming more still but she still looked quite happy. She smiled.
"Hmm, perhaps we should be somewhere th-that is not a medical wing lo-lobby of s-some sort. J-just not any of the b-break rooms. I don't like going to th-them. Too m-many people able to focus on y-you. I feel b-better out in a more pu-public setting like a c-cafe."
Nikoli smiled at her, standing up slowly.
"I'm really glad that I passed that test then, I've never done too well in school so this is probably a first."
He moved the chair he had to back to where it was before he took it.
"I guess you're right, but I still should apologize for the consequences, regardless of the intent."
He stood there in thought for a moment, thinking of where to go next. He look off past her it seemed, placing a hand on his chin, before returning his view to her and smiling.
"I agree there, the break rooms can all be very.... special at points, and I prefer not to go there as much as possible. Tell you what, since I still feel I owe you for making you wait and now upsetting you, how about we go get some food, my treat. I know a good cafe in Piltover were I used to go a lot when I lived there, if you're up for it."
Allison laughed, standing up slowly as well and moving so he could move the chair back. Allison nods at what he says about apologising.
"O-of course. Hmm, g-guess I shouldn't be c-complaining about it so much huh?" She said with a grin, her hands sliding in together behind her back. She raises an eyebrow at hhim talking about the break room, but didn't ask. At the mention of Piltover she swallowed, taking a step back. She put her hands in front of her chest and clasped them together, shaking a bit and looking somewhat fearful.
"P-P-P-P-Piltover!? C-c-cafe th-the... Piltover?" She said, her breath becomming more rapid before she got it under control, looking more determined.
"N-no... I w-w-will go! I-its been a while since I... I... have been there. I can do this... I can do this..." She said, looking scared but determined.
Nikoli almost punched himself at her reaction. Whatever had happened to her obviously had happened in Piltover, and he had just asked her to go back. He wanted to tell her to forget it, that he had changed his mind, but she was a normal woman, and she could decide for herself what she wanted to do. So he moved over to the door and held it open for her, smiling.
"If you don't want to go there, or you want to go somewhere else, it's all up to you. We'll go wherever you want to go, my treat. But if you are sure you want to go, and that you are alright with it, let's head out."

About this location
The Algarve region
The Algarve is one of the world's most attractive holiday destinations offering 160 km of gorgeous, golden, sandy beaches, rocky coves, clear waters, rugged cliffs and enchanting grottoes. The South of Portugal was the last place to gain independence from the Moors in 1292, conquered by the King Dom Afonso III and even today traces of the Moorish presence are visible in the unique terraces, chimneys and whitewashed villas.
Despite the obvious influence of tourism, a short drive inland reveals the true Algarve where life goes on much as it has for many centuries. This brightly coloured and verdant region is filled with orange groves, almond trees in blossom, carob and fig trees, and fragrant pines as well as some cork farms which are still in operation today.
The Mediterranean plants and trees put on a magnificent show throughout the year and there are plenty of nature parks and sanctuaries along the whole of the Algarve that attract many animals and birds.
For the sports enthusiasts, the Algarve has ideal conditions and top class facilities; The Algarve boasts a multitude of golf courses with many enjoying highly prized reputations. Watersports are second to none with the West coast beaches offering the best surfing, windsurfing and kitesurfing conditions.
Above all, the Algarve is a children's haven with several exciting water parks, 'Zoomarine' sealife centre, horse riding centres and plenty of fun on the beaches!
The Algarve region is blessed with a wonderful climate, ideal for swimming, sunbathing and water sports in summer, and mild enough in spring, autumn and winter for tennis, golf, clifftop or countryside walking, exploring and sightseeing.
Places of interest include the region's capital Faro and its old town, Loule and its market situated in a recently renovated Moorish building, Silves and its red fortress, Caldas de Monchique for its thermal waters, Portimao and its old town and port, Lagos for its vitality and historical interest and Cabo de S. Vicente with its imposing light-house.
Whatever your preference, you will find your personal paradise in the Algarve.
Armacao de Pera
The Algarve is famous for its wonderful sandy beaches. Armação de Péra has the longest beach in the Algarve with over three kilometres of long sandy beach and small rocky coves. Praia Grande is a very special place, this long sandy beach is a conservation area and is reknowned for its sand dunes that become a carpet of colour in spring with over a 100 species of wild plants. You could take a wonderful walk all the way to Salgados with some lovely beach restaurants at either end to rest and refuel before walking back!
Part of Armacao de Pera beach remains known as 'Fisherman's beach'. Here you can see brightly coloured boats sitting on the sand with local fishermen tending their nets.
There are plenty of excellent restaurants in the area most serving fabulous locally caught fish and of course Chicken Piri Piri! Armacao de Pera can be quite lively in the evenings with bars, shops and restaurants along the promenade. In the summer month evenings the promenade also hosts many craft stalls where you can shop for souvenirs whilst enjoying the warm Algarvian sea breeze.
It is a popular place for holidays all year round, especially with the Portuguese.
Activities in and around the area include walking, golf, tennis, fishing, shopping at Algarve Shopping centre in Guia, horse-riding, snorkeling & diving, sailing, surfing - board, wind and kite, jet-skiing and relaxing on one of the many golden beaches.
Other activities include 'Aqualand' - a giant water park set among lawns and palms with a huge array of pools and slides,which is located just two kilometres away. 'Slide and Splash' in Lagoa is similar, but on a bigger scale with an excellent water area for very young children. 'Zoomarine', part zoo and part theme park, has some amazing shows and is located about five kilometres away in Guia. A bird sanctuary is located two kilometres away next to Salgados golf course. Some of the Algarve's finest golf courses are within 15 minutes' drive.

Why can't we all just get along? :-)
I've noticed more than the normal amount of friction lately on the forum. I would love to see everyone be a bit more tolerant of one another's opinions and ideas.
None of us are 100% correct or incorrect all of the time. It takes a rounded base of talent (experience and knowledge) to really make a successful forum that offers free assistance to a wide range of 'customers'. I think that this is a great forum and it makes getting help easy for many GardenWeb users. Sometimes the best tool for helpers is the ability to listen to what our poster is asking and interpreting what that really means :-) It's also harder than actually resolving the issue.
We all have very different styles in the way we assist and because of that each of us may develop a 'following' of posters who want a specific helper to answer the question. Sure, it may delay the resolution if that person isn't monitoring the forum, but that is the poster's prerogative. Most of us have full lives outside of the internet and just can't get here every day.
Finally, although we may all have different styles, I would love to see less antagonism toward each other and our posters. I was brought up to believe that if you can't say something nice (or at least neutral) maybe you should resist the urge to hit the submit button.
An interesting observation.
Though an occasional visitor only, one of the reasons I return to this forum (and other Gardenweb forums) is the general upscale level of maturity on it, likely combined with intelligent moderation. There are the usual veteran members who post good advice and try to help folks out.
I used to frequent many, many forums only to watch then descend into complete (insert negative connotation here) matches, and then gave up completely because of what a pointless exercise it had become.
I think that (besides the state of the world in general), the whole computer demographic has changed somewhat with the computer becoming much more of an "appliance". Therefore expectations are somewhat changed from what they used to be. (I can make that statement based on what I'm seeing as a service tech on the job.)
Fortunately I work with some very qualified people who are much more likely to explain why they will or will not agree with you, rather than get into a yelling match. Hopefully this concept will prevail here and the trend you mention is only a minor aberration.
"people who are much more likely to explain why they will or will not agree with you, rather than get into a yelling match. Hopefully this concept will prevail here..."
To simply disagree with another person's opinion isn't a personal attack. It's too bad, some here don't understand that. Giving reasons for a disagreement is enlightening for all, including the "giver", who might learn that his/her assumptions or info is wrong.
For pk with her peaceful posting complete with nice emoticons:
Sorry for repeating what I'd said in another post, but I believe asking a specific person to respond to a forum question is considered quite rude. Gardenweb provides a means for people to send emails. A public forum is for public conversations, email can be used if a private conversation is desired.
Snidely, what if the poster can't figure out how to send a private email to a member?
...I'm just saying that some of the folks who ask for help here might not be able to suss that out.
Patience grasshopper :-)

I discourage anyone from using the private email when seeking help.
There are two reasons for that, first is that lurkers are then denied the chance to perhaps learn something.
Second you then only get one opinion. Asking for help in an open forum offers the opportunity for more than one line of thought on the issue. Particularly when you read some of the very vague questions asked which are often not backed up with relevant details of the computer or program for which help is sought.

Cytherian or Not

Re: Cytherian or Not
I could imagine a communications breakthough, or perhaps an expansion of a Federation-wide instant communications network to encompass the Romulan border between TNG S1 and FC. But the superquick warp jump to Earth (I find it hard to believe that days passed in that scene break) is a little harder to reconcile, unless the Enterprise-E is significantly faster than the -D.
Umm, that's more an eye-of-the-beholder thing, really. We get no instant communications between Earth and the RNZ, or any other location and the RNZ, in ST:FC. We merely get messages that reach the RNZ after spending an unknown amount of time in transit.
And the time it takes the E-E to get from the RNZ to Earth is never stated. It may be minutes, it may be hours, it may be weeks. All we know is that the same people are at the bridge stations at departure from RNZ and arrival to Earth, but we could say the same about just about any departure and arrival in TOS... The Alpha Shift might have gone to get some sleep a couple of times between those.

i'm doing stuff for my studies, so yeah, it's homework.
First: I got a working Java Server Application, i also had this client application i'm writing in c now working in java. Simple as is, i fail at sending the uint32_t to my java server.
So let's show off some code:
char* callString(char func, char* str, uint32_t anz) {
uint32_t packageLength, funcLength, strLength;
funcLength = htonl(sizeof(func));
strLength = htonl(strlen(str));
uint32_t byte = htonl(4);
uint32_t trailing = htonl(1);
anz = htonl(anz);
packageLength = byte + byte + funcLength + byte + strLength + byte + byte + trailing;
/*packageLength = htonl(packageLength);*/
char byteBuffer[ntohl(packageLength)];
printf("%i\n", packageLength);
printf("%i\n", htonl(packageLength));
printf("%i\n", ntohl(packageLength));
sprintf(byteBuffer, "%i%i%c%i%s%i%i%c", packageLength, byte, func, byte, str, byte, anz, '\0');
printf("%s\n", byteBuffer);
if(write(sock, byteBuffer, packageLength) < 0) {
printf("write: Konnte keine Daten zum gegenüber senden.\n");
char* retVal = "hallo";
return retVal;
Simple as is, i call this function with func = 'v', str = "hallo" and anz = 2 which will give me a packageLength of 27 bytes.
Package is build like this:
= packageLength (int) which is 4 byte
+ length of function descriptor (funcLength) which is 4 byte
+ func descriptor (func) which is funcLength
+ length of param1 (strLength) which is 4 byte
+ length of value of param1 (str) which is strLength
+ length of param2 which is 4 byte
+ length of value of param2 (anz) which is 4 byte
+ NULL Byte (\0) which is 1 byte
I assume the conversion i do is wrong maybe i'm using the wrong datatype. On server-side i use the Java ByteBuffer to collect the data. At first i read the 4 byte packagelength from the network which will give me the information of how long i have to read until i get the whole data package:
byte[] msgLength = new byte[4];
try {
} catch (IOException ex) {
System.out.println("could not receive byte stream: msgLength");
ByteBuffer receive;
receive = ByteBuffer.wrap(msgLength);
int packageLength = receive.getInt();
System.out.println("packageLength" + packageLength);
The last println will give me the following output:
So does anyone now where my problem is? I can provide you with more code if necessary but i think the error is either the datatype (uint32_t) or the conversion.
Help is appriciated. Thanks in advance.
Cheers Daniel

Written in 1813, Jane Austin's "Pride and Prejudice" was the first romantic comedy. The one all other romantic comedies -- like "You've Got Mail," "Sleepless in Seattle" and "Knotting Hill," to name a few -- have patterned themselves after. Detroit Lakes Public Schools is performing its rendition of the classic tale April 26-28 at 7:30 p.m. in the middle school's George Simson Auditorium. Director Mark Everson said the play is based on the novel, but they pulled some things from the recent Keira Knightley movie by the same title.
Yesterday, Bethany Haugan told a story. She used lots of character appeal, voices and actions. Haugan was competing at state in speech. Accompanying her were Jamie Blackburn, Lindsey Boller and Whitney Westley as alternates. All four Detroit Lakes High School seniors compete in a different category, and Haugan's is storytelling. At competitions, she must draw three folk stories from a pool of 15 and then decide which she is going to tell.
When Jan Donahue's husband was deployed to Iraq for the second time, she went through a period of depression. She has turned that around and is touring with her comedy act now. Donahue's husband, Kevin, is serving with the Minnesota National Guard in Iraq. Besides her husband being gone three of the last four and a half years, she is raising their two teenage sons, was laid off from her state job and is trying to maintain two homes. "We need to work together and get our soldiers back," she said. "We're tough. We're strong.
Relay for Life is looking for a few good walkers. "Usually by now, we have 30 teams. Now we have 19," said organizer Michelle Bjorgan. The American Cancer Society's Relay for Life is scheduled for June 22 at the Detroit Lakes High School football field. Teams can be anywhere from 3-15 people and of any age. They can be families, students, service groups, anyone. Relay for Life is one of the largest fund-raisers for the American Cancer Society. Teams walk throughout the night to raise money to fight cancer. New this year is a kids' carnival from 4 to 7 p.m. at the football field.
The Detroit Lakes Police Department is seeing a few changes this month. After the retirement of Captain Paul Goecke, Chief Kel Keena decided to restructure the department, having three sergeants rather than a captain and a sergeant. The city council approved the restructuring at its March meeting. With officer Tim Eggebraaten already a sergeant, two more needed to be promoted.
The Boys and Girls Club of Detroit Lakes has had a successful winter season and is ready for a fun summer season. Summer Camp 2007 begins June 4, and is packed full of activities for kids age 5-18. The Club's winter fund-raisers -- Polar Plunge and Big Bash -- brought in between $51,000 and $52,000 for the club. "The community support is excellent, and we still appreciated that," Club Director Pat Petermann said. Those funds are 20 percent of the budget for the year, he added. The Boys and Girls Club also received several grants over the last few months.
Detroit Lakes now has miles and miles of streets within the city. But years back, there was one trail that led through town -- Woods Trail. There were three distinct trails on the Red River Oxcart Trail. Although it is thought that the first person passed through Becker County on the trails on Aug. 19, 1825, "all efforts to ascertain the date of the first travel over the road have been fruitless," according to the Becker County Historical Society. The Red River Trail was the only road connecting the settlements of Pembina, N.D., and Ft.
The Detroit Lakes Fire Department will not be providing Dunn Township with primary fire coverage. Last month, Dunn Township Supervisor Mike Johnson came before the Detroit Lakes Public Safety Committee to ask that the Detroit Lakes Fire Department consider covering the Otter Tail County township. This month, several residents voiced their opinion against that request. Some wrote letters, and some attended the Public Safety Committee meeting Monday afternoon.
The Detroit Lakes City Council held its second reading and passing of a motion establishing a one-year moratorium on billboards and electronic signs in the city. "We're here not for a ban, but for a delay," resident Glenn Gifford said. Some residents spoke in favor of the moratorium, citing the aesthetics of having billboards along Highway 10.
"I have competed well; I have finished the race; I have kept the faith." 2 Timothy 4:7 Rev. Joe DeCrans said that Bible verse likely described the man hundreds were gathered to pay tribute to. Likely one of the largest funerals Frazee has seen, an estimated 1,600 people came to Frazee-Vergas High School to pay their last respects to Staff Sgt. Greg Riewer. Riewer, 28, was killed March 23 in Iraq while on duty with the Minnesota National Guard.

Side-Crunch Hammer Curl
The Side-Crunch Hammer Curl exercise works your obliques and biceps.
Alright, this next exercise is a side bend with a hammer curl. So, it tones and tightens the [unk] of the oblique and it also works the biceps and a muscle called the brachioradialis right along the forearm, and this is important if you wanna open up a jar of pickles or something. Alright, so, lift finger tips and against you temple like you're saluting forward, Dumbbell ON the right side, and the first thing we're gonna do is we're gonna reach out the left obliques by tilting over, and then squeeze the obliques as we curl the biceps up at the same time. So, big stretch on the way down, curl it on the way up, stretch on the way down, and curl on the way up. Make sure, you get a full range of motion with those obliques, so when you're at the bottom of the range of motion, your left elbow is pointing up the ceiling, and then left elbow down to the ground. Left elbow up to the ceiling at 12 o'clock down to 6 o'clock. Do about 20 of these and you're gonna feel a real burn in side, side and do the same amount on the other side.
