The Sukhoi Su-34 (Russian: Сухой Су-34) (NATO reporting name: Fullback) is a Russian twin-engine, twin-seat strike fighter.[10][11][12] It is intended to replace the Sukhoi Su-24.[13]
Based on Sukhoi Su-27 'Flanker', the two-seat Su-34 is designed primarily for tactical deployment against ground and naval targets (Tactical bombing/attack/interdiction roles, including against small and mobile targets) on solo and group missions in daytime and at night, under favourable and adverse weather conditions and in a hostile environment with counter-fire and EW counter-measures deployed, as well as for air reconnaissance. Because it is based on the Su-27 family, it can also carry out air-to-air missions (interception/air superiority), as a secondary role.[14][15][16]
The Su-34 had a muddied and protracted beginning.[17] In the mid-1980s, Sukhoi began developing a new tatical multirole combat aircraft to replace the swing-wing Su-24, which would incorporate a host of conflicting requirements. The bureau thus selected the Su-27, which excelled in maneuverability and range, and could carry a large payload, as the basis for the new fighter-bomber.[18] More specifically, the aircraft was developed from T10KM-2, the naval trainer derivative of the Sukhoi Su-27K. The development, known internally as T-10V, was shelved at the end of the 1980s sharing the fate of Soviet aircraft carrier Ulyanovsk; this was the result of the political upheaval in the Soviet Union and its subsequent disintegration.[17][18]
In August 1990 a photograph taken by a TASS officer showed an aircraft making a dummy approach towards Tbilisi carrier.[17][18] The aircraft, subsequently and erroneously labelled Su-27KU by Western intelligence, made its maiden flight on 13 April 1990 with Anatoliy Ivanov at the controls.[19] Converted from an Su-27UB with the new distinctive nose, while retaining the main undercarriage of previous Su-27s, it was a prototype for the Su-27IB (Istrebitel Bombardirovshchik, or "fighter bomber").[20] It was developed in parallel with the two-seat naval trainer, the Su-27KUB. However, contrary to earlier reports, the two aircraft are not directly related.[21] Flight tests continued throughout 1990 and into 1991.[18]
In 1992, the Su-27IB was displayed to the public at the MosAeroshow (later renamed "MAKS Airshow"), where it demonstrated aerial refuelling with an Il-78, and performed an aerobatic display. The aircraft was officially unveiled on 13 February 1992 at Machulishi, where Russian President Boris Yeltsin and the CIS leaders were holding a summit. The following year the Su-27IB was again displayed at the MAKS Airshow.[19]
The next prototype, and first pre-production aircraft, T10V-2, first flew on 18 December 1993 at the controls of Igor Votintsev and Yevgeniy Revoonov.[19] Built at Novosibirsk, where Su-24s were constructed, this aircraft was visibly different from the original prototype; it had modified vertical stabilizers, twin tandem main undercarriage and a longer "sting", which houses a rearward-facing warning radar.[17] The first aircraft built to production standard made its first flight on 28 December 1994.[17] It was fitted with a fire-control system, at the heart of which was the Leninets OKB-designed V004 passive electronically scanned array radar.[17] It was different enough from the earlier versions that it was re-designated the "Su-34".[19] However, at the 1995 Paris Air Show, the Su-34 was allocated the "Su-32FN" designation, signalling the aircraft's potential role as a shore-based naval aircraft for the Russian Naval Aviation. Sukhoi also promoted the Su-34 as the "Su-32MF" (MnogoFunksionalniy, "multi-function").[17]
Budget restrictions led the programme to stall repeatedly. Nevertheless, flight testing continued, albeit at a slow pace. The third pre-production aircraft first flew in late 1996.[22]
The aircraft shares most of its wing structure, tail, and engine nacelles with the Su-27/Su-30, with canards like the Su-30MKI/Su-33/Su-27M/35 to increase static instability (higher manoeuvrability) and to reduce trim drag. The aircraft has an entirely new nose and forward fuselage with a cockpit providing side-by-side seating for a crew of two. The Su-34 is powered by the AL-31FM1, the same engines with the Su-27SM, but its maximum speed is lower at Mach 1.8+ when fully loaded.[23] The Su-34 has a maximum range of 4,000 km (with the armament) without refuelling, and 7,000 km with aerial refueling.[24]
The Su-34 has a three-surface planform, with a conventional horizontal tailplane, twin-tail at the rear and a pair of canard foreplanes in front of the wings for extra lift (force) and more manoeuvring capability. The Su-34 has 12 hardpoints for up to 12,000 kilograms of ordnance,[25] intended to include the latest Russian precision-guided weapons. It retains the Su-27/Su-30's 30 mm GSh-30-1 cannon.[26] Able to carry air-to-air missiles R-77 (pcs 6) and R-73 (still 6). Maximum weight a single of the munition 4000 kg. The maximum range of the munition for the attack 250 km.[27][28]
The Su-34's most distinctive feature is the unusually large flight deck. Much of the design work went into crew comfort. The two crew members sit side by side in a large cabin, with the pilot-commander to the left and navigator/operator of weapons to the right in NPP Zvezda K-36dm ejection seats. An advantage of the side by side cockpit is that duplicate instruments are not required for each pilot. Since long missions require comfort, the pressurization system allows operation up to 10,000 metres (32,800 ft) without oxygen masks, which are available for emergencies and combat situations.[29] The crew members have room to stand and move about the cabin during long missions.[30][31] The space between the seats allows them to lie down in the corridor, if necessary.[29] A toilet and a galley are located behind the crew seats.[29][30] Entrance into the cockpit is from below, using a ladder attached to the nose landing gear and a hatch in the cockpit floor. The cockpit is a continuous capsule of armour.[32]
Maximum detection major range for the forward radar is 200–250 km (to review the rear another aft-mounted radar is used).[24] The main radar can simultaneously attack the 4 targets (in the air, on land or on the water).[24] The rear warning radar system can warn of attack from behind and it can also attack from behind with R-73 (missile)s, without turning the aircraft.[24] Radar defence the rear as claimed unofficially this N-012 radar.[32]
Operational history[edit]
The Su-34's long range was shown in a July 2010 exercise when Su-34s and Su-24Ms were moved from Russian bases in Europe to one on the Pacific coast, 6,000 kilometres away, which requires in-flight refuelling. The exercise included aircraft carrying weapons at full load, simulated delivering them on a target before arriving at the Pacific coast base. Su-24Ms were refuelled three times, while the Su-34 was refuelled twice.[33]
The Russian Air Force completed the final stage of the state tests on 19 September 2011.[34] The aircraft entered service in early 2014.[2] The Su-34 was rumoured to have been used by Russian command during the 2008 South Ossetia war.[35] Russia plans to have 92 in use to 2020.[36] Later planned to get up to 200.[37]
Orders and deliveries[edit]
An initial batch of eight Su-32 were completed by the Novosibirsk factory in 2004.[38] In March 2006, Russia's Minister of Defence Sergei Ivanov announced that the government had purchased the first 5 preproduction-serial Su-34s for the Russian Air Force. In the late 2008, a second contract was signed for delivery of the next 32 aircraft by 2015.[8] A total of 70 aircraft were to be purchased by 2015 to replace some 300 Russian Su-24s, which were at the time going through a modernization program.[9] Ivanov claimed that because the aircraft is "many times more effective on all critical parameters", the Russian Air Force will need far fewer of these newer bombers than the old Su-24 it replaces. In December 2006, Ivanov revealed that approximately 200 Su-34s were expected to be in service by 2020.[39] This was confirmed by Air Force chief Vladimir Mikhaylov on 6 March 2007.[40] Two Su-34s were delivered in 2006-2007, and three more were delivered by the end of 2009.[8] On 9 January 2008, Sukhoi reported that the Su-34 has begun full-rate production.[41]
The final stage of the state tests were completed on 19 September 2011.[34]
The Russian Air Force received another four Su-34s on 28 December 2010,[42] as combat units in airbases first received six Su-34s in 2011.[43] Delivery came in the form of two contracts, the first in 2008 for 32 aircraft and the second in 2012 for a further 92 aircraft, totaling 124 to be delivered by 2020.[44] In December 2012 it was reported that Sukhoi delivered five aircraft (transferred under the 2012 State Defense Order).[45] In January 2013, Sukhoi delivered another batch of 5 Su-34 aircraft. They flew directly from the Novosibirsk aircraft plant to an air base in Voronezh, Russia.[46] On 6 May 2013, the first Sukhoi Su-34s under defence procurement plan in 2013 was delivered to the air force.[47]
On 9 July 2013, three more Su-34s were delivered with the official acceptance ceremony taken place directly at the Novosibirsk Aircraft Plant. The appearance of the three Su-34s in the new Russian air force camouflage, a black top, blue bottom, and white nose, suggests that the livery is official and will be kept.[48] As of the end of 2013, Sukhoi completed 2008 contract and started deliveries on 2012 contract.[49]
In August 2013, Sukhoi signed a contract with the Kazan-based Radiopribor holding company for 184 "friend-or-foe" transponders for the Su-34 to be delivered by 2020.[50]
On 10 June 2014, Russia1 TV reported a further delivery of Su-34s was made to the 559th Regiment at Morozovsk.[51] Another three aircraft were delivered on 18 July 2014.[52] Six more were delivered on 15 October 2014.[6] 18 aircraft were delivered in 2014,[53][54] and 20 planned to be delivered in 2015.[55]

"Never surrender your hopes and dreams to the fateful limitations others have placed on their own lives. The vision of your true destiny does not reside within the blinkered outlook of the naysayers and the doom prophets. Judge not by their words, but accept advice based on the evidence of actual results. Do not be surprised should you find a complete absence of anything mystical or miraculous in the manifested reality of those who are so eager to advise you. Friends and family who suffer the lack of abundance, joy, love, fulfillment and prosperity in their own lives really have no business imposing their self-limiting beliefs on your reality experience."

dead mouse odor
frustrated_2007January 14, 2007
I have a dead mouse in the wall in my bedroom. The smell is really strong. Aside from the odor, can this be harmful to my family? I cant expose the area where I believe it is because I only rent this place. It is a double wide home. Should I have the landlord open the wall to get it out or is it ok to just wait it out. The paneling cant be replaced if it gets messed up, so is it worth it to take that chance.

Ceiling options w/out losing much space
We're finishing our basement ourselves and have come to the point where we have to decide what to do w/ the ceiling. We'd like to preserve as much space as possible, and even considered leaving it open and painting the joists/pipes, etc., but want to have a bit more soundproofing than that would provide. We'll have a spiral staircase so there will be an open hole to our living room, but right now even without the hole we can hear everything between the two floors, and would like to dampen that, even though we will have the spiral stairs.
We've looked at several options and are a little confused about what would save the most height and also not be too complicated. We don't want to just put drywall up on the joists because they aren't straight. We also were planning on using recessed lighting. It's a 1920 house.
1- Use furring strips and drywall.
2- Using resilient channel/drywall. This seems good for the soundproofing, but I don't know if it saves us any space over the furring strips, and we can't quite understand how to use recessed lighting w/ the channels- seems like you have to build a box around the cans?
3- use ceiling tiles mounted on a grid directly on the joists. We don't want the suspended ceiling look, but I think there are options nowadays that don't look like that? This seems easier w/ the recessed cans, but not sure of total cost. And some tiles provide more soundproofing than others, but I really don't want it to look like a tacky basement ceiling.
Any options we haven't thought of yet? We were going to do laminate flooring, but that loses space too, so any other thoughts about saving room that way are welcome as well.
The best way to reduce impact sound from above is to treat the floor above. Carpeting or loose rugs do the job.
As long as you will have a staircase right into the finished area of the basement, there's no point in doing any soundproofing from below. If you like the warehouse/loft look, just clean up the ceiling and paint it.

The group discusses the hardest thing they have each had to deal with in the last three years, how their plans and goals have changed, and what they have been up to since they last caught up with Insight – from learning to drive and pay bills, to dealing with depression, hitting the booze and finding love.
"Thirteen" was the winner of a United Nations Media Peace Prize for Children's Rights and Issues in 2006. "Sixteen" was a journey down memory lane and now "Nineteen" promises to reunite the group introduced six years ago and explore some of the issues affecting them today.
Guests include:
Hayden Coggan
In 'Sixteen', Hayden talked openly about coping with the death of his mother. Now he's doing a boiler maker apprenticeship and has found someone special to share his life with – a woman who he says keeps him on track and who has helped him overcome some problems with alcohol and gambling.
Shane Riley
Shane had dreams of becoming an elite athlete when he was thirteen. Now, he's putting in hours at an abattoir and sometimes spends his spare time at the local pub. He admits he's been caught up in some violent fights.
Mona El-Mohtadi
Mona says changing from an Islamic school into a selective high school in years 11 and 12 opened her eyes to other cultures and ways of life. Mona feels she has extra responsibilities now with university and managing her money.
Evan Tancred
Evan has had some big things to deal with since he was introduced in 'Thirteen'. As a volunteer lifesaver at his local beach, Evan helped save someone's life. He's also doing some acting and looking for a job.
Liam Dudgeon
Liam took a gap year after finishing high school to save enough money for university and to look after his father who had had a mental breakdown. Liam says he was bullied during his final years at school and has learned some of life's lessons the hard way.
Avanthi Bulathsinhala
Avanthi says she felt a lot of pressure during her final year of high school and had a brush with depression. Rather than continue with medication, she says she got through the difficult time by doing the things she loved – reading, playing guitar, and listening to music.
Lionel Wood
When Lionel was 13 he lamented the lack of positive male role models in his home town, Dubbo. Now at 19, Lionel himself has become a role model. After taking on the school captaincy in his final year at school, he now has a direct impact on the kids around him.

Please vote between finalists: JennAir & KitchenAid
We have narrowed down options for all the stainless steel appliances between JennAir and/or KAid and I've indicated where we're leaning right now. We are open to mixing and matching the lines and not going with just one brand for everything...unless the voting comes back telling us we should!
1. SxS 42" (maybe 48") with water/ice dispenser - KAid - KSSC42QVS
2. single Wall oven -JennAir - JJW3430WS
3. 36" induction - undecided
4. warming drawer - undecided - this will be located below induction, about 6' away from wall oven so would it be nicer to have this matching to cooktop or wall oven?
5. speed oven/microwave - JennAir - JMC2430W
6. dishwasher - KAid - KUDS30SXSS - JennAir not considered here - originally we were going to go Asko until I took my dishes to showroom and attempted to load the dishwasher and immediately hated it.
Looking foward to your feedback and any advice you might have to add.
We have the 48" Jenn-air built in, 5 years now, quiet, well lit, and trouble free cept for the icemaker. The icemaker has lasted about 5 years, but I think it's on it's last legs now, Since Whirlpool makes most the ice makers, not only for their brands, (KA, JA, Maytag etc) but also for some if not all the SZ's so I would not choose the KA over the JA due to the icemaker. A new one is about $150 so I figger , "No biggie" I got 5 years out of it.
The thing I really like about the JA, is the separate temp settings for the different sections of the fridge.
I like to keep the meat keeper just above freezing, and the
produce about 34 and the main part of the fridge at 38, I don't know if the KA allows you to do that.
I also like the crank up/down shelves in the JA both in the fridge and freezer, so if a bottle is a lil too tall, I just crank up the shelf.
While I have had KA Dishwashers and liked them and never had any repairs, I now have a Miele, and I would at least take the time to see if your dishes fit in a Miele.
Most the Jenn-air stuff is so new, (cept the fridges) that we just don't have that much info on them yet (here in GW) to get a good handle on their performance and reliability, alto their older stuff seems to run about 50-50 here in GW as far as performance/reliability--some loved them but others hated them.
Except for an occasional post here and there, most folks have been happy with the Electrolux Ovens, and in fact the single ovens are "almost always" 5 star rated.
As far as Speed Ovens go, The Miele Speed oven, (at least here in GW) come close to a "Perfect Rating" performance/reliability wise. I do have an Electrolux Speed Oven that I really like, and except for a screw that came loose on the handle, it has been trouble free for more than 5 years now.
Good Luck with your pending decisions and purchases!
I guess I will have to go down to Pacific Sales and compare the 2 Fridges (JA KA). When I bought mine, JA had not been acquired by Maytag which was swallowed up by Whirlpool, so at least back then, there was a difference and in fact, back then KA didn't even make a 48" built in.
I did post some time ago, where different appliances were made, and I do know that some of the JA's were made in a different factory than the KA's jut cant recall if the SXS fridges were, so I will see if I can find that post again.
Usually I don't take the extended warranties, but I did for my Elux Induction cooktop, Like the New Jen-airs, it really didn't have much of a history and it was $79 for 5 years, so I took it--alto the cooktop has been trouble free.
So In this case, were I buying the JA's I would take the extended warranty, there's a Good chance your dealer "Might" give you a deal on the extended warranty as the JA's are now "Price fixed" grrrrrr! Be sure to find out who is doing the extended warranty though, as you don't want to be "tied into a repair company" that is reknown for poor service---We seen quite a few post about those types of companies.
Good luck with your decisions, and please review them should you choose to go JA---as ya know there a "dearth of info" on them right now.
They're both Whirlpools, and I would do just about anything to avoid Whirlpool's abysmal customer service. The only KA that I would remotely consider is their DW's, as they are are some of the original Hobart innard designs---until they ship those overseas too. JennAir, well, I wouldn't buy anything JennAir. Whirlpool still hasn't figured out what they're doing with JA as it was a direct competitor to the KA line and they don't want to lose either "name". Sorta like Ford and Mercury. You're buying the same exact product, but maybe a fancier bling on one of them and that's it.
Current Kitchenaid dishwashers have NOTHING in common with the old Hobart-built dishwashers except for the "KitchenAid" logo. The new ones are all thinly-disguised Whirlpool dishwashers, similar to top-of-the-line Whirlpool-branded machines. Recent Jenn-Air, Maytag, and other Whirlpool-owned brands also use a variant of this design, as do Ikea dishwashers and some Kenmores. The differences are mainly in the control panels, door latches, and rack design.
Well, we took the plunge on the weekend and went with a Jenn Air package: 48" SxS, 30" wall oven with culinary center, warming drawer, speed oven and 36" induction cooktop. I guess I'm a bit of a gambler because I know some people are JAir haters, but we got a good deal and I'm hopeful that their new technologies will have proven positive by the time we install (December). There have been few reviews of the new JA appliances so I guess I'll pave the way and keep everyone posted on how we do with them. To be honest there are lovers/haters of every brand out there and my head was so full of information/opinions gathered from this from this forum that we just said 'let's go for it'. I haven't bought my dishwasher yet but I think it will still be the KAid.
hi Mardo,
I have been looking into buying jennair appliances. And pricing is attractive with free DW. There are not enough reviews out there for Jeann Air. I came across this post when looking for one . So what has been your experience so far? Any input would be helpful.
I bought a new Jennair range about 5 years ago for my previous home.
Turned out to be a real POS. Control board went belly-up within the first-year - replaced under warranty and the new one died 6 months later.
Even when it was working, it never could hold a steady oven temperature. It was poorly finished, and the downdraft exhaust was so ineffective I disconnected it and installed a proper hood. Both the griddle and grill did not fit properly and were real pains to use.
When I moved I bought a real range for my new kitchen instead of eye candy.
Good luck with your purchases,
My electric cooktop Jen-Air never cooked well enough for me (purchased years ago). When purchased, I called the company to see if there was something I could do to make it heat better. NO REPLY. My friend just purchased a gas Jen-Air cooktop and complains it takes forever to boil water and wants her old cooktop back.
Jenn Air Induction Cooktops: We just remodeled the kitchen and got a Jenn Air Induction Cooktop - 36" x 5 burners and LOVE IT! We installed the 36" Induction because we don't have natural gas or propane here. My partner is a CCA Trained Chef and hates anything other than gas for cooking. I thought the new induction unit might be an acceptable compromise. Turns out it is far more than just "acceptable" to both of us!
The JennAir Induction unit is fast, powerful, quiet, and every bit as instantly responsive as natural gas or propane would be. The other day we were doing pasta for dinner. Four out of the five burners in use at the same time. 1.) a large stockpot of water boiling, 2.) the sauce heating, 3.) some turkey-sausage for inclusion in the sauce & 4.) had some mushrooms and onions going on a So four burners running, the vent hood on medium / low, and my kitchen stayed cool!
We're in Phoenix. We dread cooking on the stovetop in the summer because it heats up the whole house for several hours afterwards. The AC strains to recover and hold the temp to a moderate 79 degrees. NOT ANY LONGER! The kitchen didn't heat up, the food cooked perfectly, water boiled almost instantly even in an 12 quart stock pot. After I drained the pasta and wanted to "sauce" it in the pro way - I put a large non-stick skillet on the stove, put in a couple of drops of olive oil and added the damp pasta, stirred it around for 30 seconds on high, added the turkey sausage, veggies, and finally the Marinara sauce. The big 3500 watt burner (boosted to 4500 I think) handled it beautifully. The large skillet was hot in an instant. The olive oil was smoking slightly when I added the damp pasta. The sizzle of the moisture coming out of the pasta sounded just as it would have, if I'd been using a 30,000 BTU gas burner! The veggies were re-warmed and then heated thru in seconds, as was the sausage. Finally the marinara sauce was up to a low simmer in less than ten seconds! Stir Stir Stir and it's time to serve it. Everything was perfect. Absolutely perfect! And still there was almost no residual heat.The kitchen was still cool! Believe me, that NEVER happened before when we used a conventional electric cooktop in the old kitchen. I could put my hand on the Glass Cooktop and it was warm, not scalding hot or dangerously hot. I am well pleased with the JennAir Induction Cooktop and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.
BTW: I bought Miele 24" for an oven, vent hood, and the Miele dishwasher.(the Diamond G59xxSF model.) But the Miele 36" induction cooktop was nearly $3700 plus tax and installation. The JenAir was on sale and I paid a little over $1000 for it. With the savings I upgraded to a Miele 36" built-in fridge/freezer. As you can probably tell by my choice of appliances, I have no problem spending money when there's a reason to do so. But as much as I like Miele products (and I am really fond of them and their incredible quality ) I couldn't bring myself to spend an extra $2700 to get the name "Miele" somewhere on the cooktop! While I am the first to tell you Miele and Quality are nearly synonymous in my experience, I cannot throw away an extra $2700 for a label. Everyone I spoke to said their Miele Induction units were good. No one said they were great or totally trouble-free. The JennAir owners I talked to seemed to be far more impressed or satisfied with their choice of cooktops. Odd? Yes, it seemed so to me, also.
While I cannot comment on any other JennAir appliances, I can tell you that their Induction Cooktop seems EXCELLENT and has worked impeccably for us since it was installed. Considering the savings, I could buy THREE JennAir induction units (on sale) for what I would pay for one Miele and FOUR OR FIVE for the cost of a VIKING INDUCTION COOKTOP (that's a whole other story! but a very costly one, I assure you!)
If you have a choice between Natural Gas, or Electric, I'd still recommend first choice of Electric Induction for it's amazing efficiency, overall speed, and safety. I'm told that with Induction, some 93% of the power you pay for in Kilowatts goes into the food, not into heating up the burners or the room. This 93% number is weighed against a 55% energy efficiency for gas and 30% energy efficiency for conventional electric coil type burners.
Also, you won't need a vent hood rated at 1200 CFM or better, and you won't suffer with your kitchen being turned into an over all summer long, either. These modern induction units are making serious inroads into professional kitchens all over the country, too, for their ease of use, efficiency, safety and speed!! In a restaurant setting (just like in your homes) the induction units are FAR cheaper to run than is Natural Gas or Propane or conventional resistance electric heating coils.
Sorry to ramble, but the Induction unit from Jenn Air has really been amazing and I don't hesitate to recommend this unit and/or Induction Cooking in General for it's many advantages and no discernible disadvantages. If we suddenly had Natural Gas available tomorrow, I might switch out the water heater, or the heat pump AC unit. Maybe even the dryer. But I'll stick with Induction cooking for the foreseeable future unless something better comes along ...

About Dawn Ryder
I write to reassure myself that reality really is survivable. Between traffic jams and children's sporting schedules, there is romance lurking for anyone with the imagination to find it. I spend my days making corsets and petticoats as a historical costumer. If you send me an invitation marked "formal dress", you'd better give a time period or I just might show up wearing my bustle. I love to read a good romance, and I'm addicted to writing them as well.

Java 8 is going live today – here's your crib sheet
A selection of resources for Java 8 adopters, with a special focus on lambdas and the new Date-Time APIs, as well as some other handy bits.
In a few short hours, the US West coast will be
coming online, and, at long last, Java 8 will go
live. Of course, a lot of you will already have delved
into the Early Access build by now, but today's the day when all
those months of painstaking labour finally come together in one
perfect) product.
We're not alone in our anticipation for the launch – a
30% of developers are planning to put the platform update into
use within the next six months, and at least 65% will be converting
within the next two years. We've been closely following the twists
and turns Oracle have taken on the road to Java 8, and can't wait
to see what the next few months have in store. Along the way, we've
amassed a considerable amount of resources for eager adopters here
on JAXenter.com.
We'll be providing coverage and commentary about
the big release from luminaries in the Javasphere in the days
and months to come, but if you want Java 8 resources and you want
them now gosh darn it, here's a handy compilation of what we've got
on offer:

- Simon Ritter: Project Lambda: Functional Programming
Constructs in Java
You might assume that lambda expressions are
simply a more syntactically compact form of inner classes, but, in
fact, the implementation of lambda expressions is substantially
different and builds on the invokedynamic feature added in Java SE
7. This session explains the ideas behind lambda expressions, how
they will be used in Java SE 8 and look at some of the details of
their implementation.
- Jamie Allen: What you need to know about
Jamie Allen discusses best practices for using Lambdas in Java and
other JVM-based languages, and shows how we can make these
constructs more usable in production. He also reviews concepts
associated with lambdas to make sure everyone is on the same page,
such as closures, higher order functions and the relationship
between methods and functions and how they relate to
Date and Time
- Java SE 8 Date and Time: Why do we need a new date and
time library?
Ben Evans and Richard Warburton outline the
reasons why decent support for the date and time use cases of
everyday devs is so darn important.
- The new JDK 1.8 Date and Time API –
The next release of Java, JDK 1.8, will have a new
date and time API, finally replacing the confusing, slow, and
difficult Date and Calendar APIs. This session by Stephen
Colebourne is an in-depth look at the new API (JSR-310), including
details on how it was designed, what problems it fixes, and what
new techniques it enables. If you've ever cursed the Date or
Calendar class, then you owe it to yourself to watch this

Dandelion jelly.......
Kind of different, I think it has kind of an earthy taste (not much), even with 4 cups of sugar, it's not as sweet as the violet jelly.
Same recipe, though. Jelly is so easy to make, and people seem to like it better than jam.
My DD got some strawberry butter on a trip recently, and we really like that, so I guess we'll be making fruit butter this summer - strawberry and peach are the obvious ones. And.....you can make them in a slow cooker!
Next lilacs
This post was edited by momj47 on Sun, May 4, 14 at 18:46
I have fond memories of dandelion flowers as one of the cash crops of my youth. My cousins and I would be paid a dime a basket for them by our grandfather, who used the flowers for making a golden dandelion wine. I can post the recipe if anyone would like to try it.
It's certainly interesting and very pretty, but I think I'm picking up on your lack of enthusiasm for the taste. :) I love doing cooking or craft experiments with things from the yard or gardens. I tried yet another version of 'candied violets' the other day... they're currently drying and look ok so far...
Yes, the violet jelly has a distinctive taste, the others not so much, even though lilacs certainly have a distinctive fragrance.
I'm curious to see what honeysuckle will be like - probably not much color, but taste?
The kids and I wanted to candy some violets - but our lawn guy mowed them all. Next spring.

Ā I thoought we could share stories if your LO needs or needed cosmetic surgery.
Here is mine
My daughter was born with a round brown birthmark on her forehead with a mole in the middle of it. My husband and I thought it was unique and thought nothing of it. As my daugter got older the mark got darker and bigger. It used to be the size of a dime and was now the size of a quarter.
ĀĀ Our doctor reccomeded removing it since it would continue to grow and the mole could end up cancerous. My husband was not interested in the removal right away. I had concerns right from the start because I know how kids can be brutal in school.
Anyway, what changed my husbands mind was that the older my daughter got the more aware she became of the mole/mark. When ever we went places other kids would comeĀ up to her and touch her mole and say boo boo and my daughter would always be in the mirror touching it and asking others where is your boo boo?
So, finally when she was almost 3 we started the 3 part process of having the mark and mole removed. When complete it will actually be a tiny thin scar hardly visible.
We only had the first part done which is the removal of the mole itself. Now, everyone including adults are always asking what happened. My daughter (now 4) is able to explain that it is was a mole. Since kids still point and ask I sometimes put a band aidĀon it so that Jess can spend a day without a finger pointedĀin her face. Once an elderly man (after I explained) told Jess that she will be so pretty once its done. ARGGG!!
It't tough as a parent because I feel guilty putting the bandade on like I am trying to hide it. But at the same time my daughter shouldn't have fingers in her face all day.
Luckily, we are finishing the last 2 procedures next year so everything will be healed before she goes to school.
Would love to hear your stories. Are you refusing any type of surgeries? Doing the surgeries?

Arizona Cardinals
Fight to make Arizona Cardinals' roster enters its final round
TEMPE, Ariz. -- The proverbial bubble will burst for 22 Arizona Cardinals by the end of the week.
Teams must reduce rosters to a league-mandated 53 players by 3:00 p.m. MST Saturday, giving many one final audition to showcase their skills.
"I approach it like any other game," wide receiver Jaron Brown said of the Cardinals' preseason finale at Denver Thursday. "I'm just trying to go out there and be the best receiver I can be, a complete receiver and just have a complete game."
Receiver, tight end, cornerback, safety as well as the offensive line were the positions head coach Bruce Arians identified as having yet to be solidified.
"There's about four or five spots that are up for grabs still," he said Tuesday.
Now while this one last game likely won't be the determining factor in a player's fate, it will be added to what Arians has often referred to as a player's r�sum�: How well they play, how well they practice, how well they study in meetings.
"I don't necessarily feel like I am fighting (for a roster spot)," cornerback Bryan McCann said. "I understand what's at stake, but I can't go out there and try and be some player that I'm not. I got to do what I can do. If it's good enough to be here, then I will be; and if not, then I won't."
And even if a player does survive Saturday, that may not mean they have survived the weekend. Once those final cuts are made, teams will begin to scan the waiver wire.
"That's the other thing that we can't put into account because you don't know who's going to be on it," Arians said. "That's always a tough decision to grab somebody that hasn't been with you over somebody who has been. There will be two or three guys and I'll say, �Look, you're here. It could be a practice squad spot by Thursday.'"

Accident? Too Bad.
I am pretty upset. I deleted an item from a lockbox ship in the haste of removing the junk that comes with it, I was told: Too Bad. I wasted money.
I started two projects now in the reputation system that I cant clar until I waste more money (or even worse: Time) spending the dilthium and marks on items that I already have, or have a better version of.
The customer service in this game compared to other games where I acually feel like a customer who is cared for: Stinks.
Too Bad, thanks for the money - Thats the attitude I get.
Will posting on the forums help?

fedacct gave to Nowhere BarBars & Clubs in LouisvilleNice seating, atmosphere, and bartenderWe went during an off time on Sunday after a disappointing experience at Big Bar. Large place with chic seating and atmosphere. Had a dance floor. The half dozen patrons or so turned and gawked at us when we came in the door and then turned back around without responding when I said "Hello", but the bartender was personable enough.
Bars & Clubs in LouisvilleBartender was a douche!Came in. Place is small. So, it should be readily apparent someone came in. Bartender continued to talk to his friends for five minutes even after glancing down at us once. When he finally served us, he served us drinks that tasted like sh!t.
Bars & Clubs in NashvilleLow end clientelePreppy out-of-towners here. Walked in & everyone immediately turned and gawked at us. You would have thought we'd just walked into a black bar. We immediately left. Whole place smelled intensely of smoke. No ventilation whatsoever. Place was full of nothing but smokers and people that look like they spend their paycheck there.
fedacct gave to The Right CornerBars & Clubs in DaytonDive-ish, but I can usually find someone to talk to thereCheap and strong drinks. On average, people are adequately friendly, some more than others, some a bit on the cliquish side though. Neighborhood type atmosphere.
fedacct gave to Pulse Ultra ClubBars & Clubs in Myrtle BeachDecent for Myrtle BeachA little dive-ish, but overall a nice bar with really nice local people and staff. Large space, plenty of seating, and has a dance floor. The only negative is that smoking is allowed, and the ventilation isn't good. Based on my two visits there, it also appears to be frequented by the occasional preppy middle-aged traveler looking to hook up with guys that are way out of their league. I found it rather entertaining! Appears to be the only gay bar in Myrtle Beach. Unfortunately, it isn't in the most convenient location......down on the south side of town.

However, the interior of the hotel was recently remodeled and is nice. Rooms are clean. Hotel has a bar and restaurant on the top floor. Closest hotel to the bars and the Oregon district if you attend Pride or Gay Film Festival events or if you otherwise had too much.First to Review

Driving with angels...
Location: Austin Tx USA
By: Lori Leissner
My faith in God and Angels has been tested many times. My faith was restored one afternoon while driving from Austin to San Antonio after a long 12 hour shift at work.
Most highways have those annoying bumps, or ridges carved in the pavement along both sides of the highway. Their purpose is to alert you that you are too close to the edge of the highway when you are driving. Great alarms for people who fall asleep. After working a long shift overnight, I drove my family to San Antonio to attend a holiday celebration. I popped in a cd to keep me awake. My children had dosed off in the backseat, and my husband was resting in the passenger seat. I glanced down at the player, and set it to track 3, moved over to the far left to get into the fast lane.
I remember driving, and singing to the song. I remember tilting my head back to rest, my neck had started to hurt. There is a section on this highway that has no ridges, and on this section there is a stone wall where a river runs under the bridge. I opened my eyes and saw my car maybe 5 inches from that stone wall. As my heart dropped into my stomach, and my foot slammed on the brake...I realized in that split second that my life and the lives of the people I love most were almost gone. My car stopped, I looked back at my kids, looked at my husband, and looked at the track number on the cd player. It was on 5.
I have no idea how long I was asleep, no idea how I crossed through three lanes on the highway without crashing, and no idea what woke me up. There were no ridges, no loud noises, no horns honking, nothing. Just music playing. Nothing that would have caused me to wake up and realize that I was about to crash into a wall and go over a bridge.
Angels were in the car. God was watching. They were there with us that day, and they woke me up just in time. I truly believe that we are blessed, and that there are angels watching us. There was nothing else that could have kept us from crashing, or woken me up that morning.....nothing but the love of God and his watchful Angels. My faith was restored.
Some may never see with earthly eyes these heavenly beings or know that they exist. Many are unaware of the numerous ways they have protected and guided us. We would like to share with you the stories of people who take pleasure in expressing how real angels are.

Students working
Students spend time creating characters that the world may never see.
These characters have personalities. Stories. They all happen in the students head.
When my students get to this level it is my job to stand back. To try to create a comfortable space for them to practice this artistic behaviour.
Some question about assessing such work. The teacher just needs to ask the right questions about their thought process. Which materials they use? And why? But the instructor needs to know enough not to stifle the child's creative outpouring. Because when the child is ready all you need to do is ask and the ideas and emotions which inspire the work will knock you off your socks.
Some become so good at Visual communication that their point hits you like a rock.
Like this students piece inspired by the events at Ferguson. This is when discussion turns into a discussion about ideas and how to portray them rather than materials and how to use them. This does not mean this cannot happen with less seasoned students but I think you can't force this out of them. It has to happen organically.
I have amazing students.

Sock Creatures
This year we started to make our world famous sock creatures again. I had taken a break from using this lesson but brought it back because I felt it was so effective. The student uses a sock and turn it into a stuffed creature. I believe that this is a useful way to teach the student about using different materials for different purposes. How to repurpose old materials in new ways. Also I hope that they can understand from this exercise that any material can be used to create. After they make their creature they give it a name and write a short story about the creature. I like the idea of giving the monster a life. I have found through the years that once the student does this they create a bond with the stuffed animal. They love this lesson. Sometimes when they think I am not paying attention I catch them playing with the creature. I think that is great. It helps to remind them that they are still kids and it is O.K.

Napoleon Bonaparte said that history is always written from the view point of the victors.
A few times I've been asked where the Prairie is, so I'll share how I found out and how you can find out for yourself.
Our country is in mourning over the deaths in Aurora, Colorado. As I write this, 12 people have died there. Several more are hospitalized in serious condition. By the time you read this, the death count may be higher.
I am not picking on Starkville Alderman Roy A. Perkins. I use him merely as an example of something that seems more and more prevalent these days, and not just among officials and politicians.
Imagine three couples and a film crew crowded into a garage in Clarksdale, Mississippi, during a March rainstorm. In the garage six Chinese-American cooks are tending four sizzling woks.
The text message came over my cellphone at about 4 p.m. Monday. It was from Jeff Clark, one of our reporters, who was out covering the Columbus-Lowndes Convention & Visitors Bureau's month board meeting.
Picking up the phone, I dialed the 800 number. I knew, even as I did it, I was headed down that slippery slope.
The longer I am around public officials, the more convinced I am of one simple truth: Sixty-percent of the truth is worse than 100 percent of a lie.
You know, mommas are always the ones to do all the work for the pets and you always wonder why they don't want any, or any more, pets.
I went to the doctor the other day and it got me thinking about the French medical plan. Why the French plan? Because I've been living in France for 28 years, and enjoying the benefits of their medical system.
I pointed my fishing pole toward Sam. "Look!" As we faced each other in the fishing boat, he quickly looked behind him. "What?" "My pole!" There between us was my new fishing pole with a good two feet dangling off the end. "You scared me," he said, "I thought you saw a snake or an alligator. We'll go back and get your old one."
Naturalist Pat Arinder's talk on the archeological history of local Indian culture presented at the Plymouth Bluff Center last Sunday brought back several quandaries I have pondered.
The Oktibbeha County Board of Supervisors moved briskly through the early portion of Monday's meeting, eager to get to the public comment portion of the agenda. Monday's meeting drew a crowd of about 60 spectators and the atmosphere of the board room was charged with emotion over the possible sale of Oktibbeha County Hospital. So, naturally, the first two citizens to speak talked about...roads.
Robert Boudreau during his stay here has said a lot of nice things about Columbus. The other night the founder and director of the American Wind Symphony Orchestra called the town a Brigadoon. It sounded complimentary, but until I went home and Googled it, I couldn't be sure.
In Thursday's paper, the Dispatch reported that Jill Savely had been hired as the new principal at Columbus High School. The story dutifully noted her professional background -- seven years as assistant principal and two years as a biology teacher at CHS and the fact that she was the district's 2009 administrator of the year.
In Wednesday's edition, the Dispatch reported about the Columbus Municipal School District's rejection of a $175,000 bid from Point of Grace Church for the Lee Middle School property and, yes, I know precisely what you were thinking: "This bunch could mess up a two-car funeral."
Picking up one tomato, I slid the blade of the Pampered Chef knife easily across its rosy skin. The tomato yielded four thick slices. The tomato plants in the greenhouse are producing an ice cream-bucket full every other day.
I knew it was time to stop writing a weekly column when writing one about stopping became easier to write. Over the last year or so, writing this column has been a significant part of my life. It's pushed me to think about Columbus. It's encouraged me to meet new people and allowed me to share my thoughts with strangers. It's also kept me up late many a Tuesday night.

Get ready for a heartbreaking season of True Blood as a major character gets killed. The cast of the hit U.S. series have revealed that they couldn't hold their tears from falling upon learning that they would have to say goodbye to a main character.
They've been hinting at it for months, but it didn't seem so real before since it appeared even the actors didn't have a concrete idea about it. But it's real and it's happening, and the cast couldn't even believe it themselves.
"It's heartbreaking," Ryan Kwanten, who plays Jason Stackhouse in the series, confided the said death to eonline.com. "I was actually quite surprised that we had survived as long as we have without any true main cast dying.
"It was tough; even in the table read when we knew that this character was going to go, there were tears galore."
There are a lot of deaths that fans should expect in the new season, but this particular unnamed character's death is expected to tug at the viewers' heartstrings. But in the case of the actors, the demise of their castmate's character was devastating.
"It sucked!" Chris Bauer (Andy Bellefleur) complained. "When you get used to being around somebody and get to know them both as their character and who they are, it's just not fair to see them go."
Joe Manganiello, who plays the werewolf Alcide Herveaux, added, "It's sad. The table read was really sad, heartfelt.
"That person cried. We all clapped, and then in True Blood fashion, we had red velvet cake. When someone dies, they serve red velvet cake. Like, bloody cake, and you eat it ceremoniously, which is kind of what werewolves do."
A clearly emotional Alexander Skarsgard (Eric Northman) simply described the episode as "very emotional."
Meanwhile, Stephen Moyer (Bill Compton) has no qualms in directing real life wife Anna Paquin's (Sookie Stackhouse) sex scenes on camera. Moyer has directed episodes from the last and the current season.
"When you are directing your wife in a sex scene, you get to do what the writers come up with," he told the Web site at the season six premiere of the programme in Hollywood. "Maybe they're coming up with something you haven't thought of before. You can try things out without it being weird."
While Moyer wasn't uncomfortable about it, his wife's onscreen love interest certainly found it awkward.
"When the first scene came up, I went to [Moyer] and I was like, 'How can I make this easy for you?'" said Robert Kazinsky, who plays Ben Flynn.
"He said, 'Don't! She's great. Just do what you need to do. She'll do what she needs to do and just forget about it.' I was like, 'I'll try.' But it's not easy."
The sixth season of True Blood premieres on June 17 in Australia.
