Newark, NJ (SportsNetwork.com) - Jaromir Jagr will remain with the New Jersey Devils for another season.
The future Hall of Fame forward signed a new contract with the club on Wednesday. As per club policy, no further terms were disclosed.
"I know I play the best hockey when I'm happy, and we had a good group of guys," Jagr said on a conference call. "I was getting ice time and I like to play a lot. I don't get tired much, so I really enjoy that. It was a loose atmosphere; we work hard, but there's not one bad guy on our team.
"Maybe we need one or two [bad guys] to make the playoffs."
Jagr, who is presently preparing to participate in the upcoming IIHF World Championships, was also named a finalist for the 2013-14 Bill Masterson Memorial Trophy on Wednesday. This award is given "to the player who best exemplifies the qualities of perseverance, sportsmanship, and dedication to hockey."
The 42-year-old previously signed a one-year deal with New Jersey last July and led the Devils with 67 points, tallying 24 goals and 43 assists while appearing in all 82 games. The point total was Jagr's highest in three seasons since coming back to the NHL in 2011 following a three-year stint in Russia's Kontinental Hockey League.
Jagr also recorded his 700th career goal last season and stands seventh on the NHL's all-time list with 705 markers, while his 1,755 points are tied for sixth-best in league history.

Did I mentioned I LOVE LOVE LOVE THESE JEANS..
Fresno, TX
Love everything about this jean!
I have already wrote a couple other reviews on these jeans awhile back, but I just had to write another! I wanted to write about the zebra print one's. I love them all and I have many different colors, but the zebra print jeans are my very favorite's. I came real close to losing out because I waited to get them, I apparently got the last pair in my size. I learned my lesson though, if I see something I like I have to buy it then, if you wait thinking it will still be there tomorrow, it might not be. Anyway the zebra print is awesome and looks so good and matches with so many things. They fit perfect, feel comfortable and so glad for the tall length. I am 5"8 and the regular pants are a little shorter then I like. I have received a ton of compliments on the zebra print jeans, and everyone wants to know where they can purchase them. Anyway I am very happy I was able to get my size before they were gone! I love love love the zebra print! I'm a happy and satisfied customer! :)

Boston, MA
I purchased the white jean. I am 5'8" tall but very slim. The 6T is just perfect...usually I have to sew the thigh area slimmer...these are just a perfect fit! Love them...ordered the black which is back ordered. Can't wait to get those either! Very nice!

Perfect Fit
Love these jeans, finally a perfect fit for my body and the sister with the apple bottom butt, and the stretch makes it worth while. I will be purchasing other colors.
Dublin, CA
Perfect jean for the sister with the big apple bottom butt.
Size is but a number
I used the size chart, found myself between two sizes, and ordered the size larger in Tall to allow for slight shrinkage and a more relaxed fit. These skinnies happen to fit my proportions well, so I plan to order more colors. Don' t be afraid of the number, go for the fit that flatters!

Great looking jeans
I love these jeans. I am a size 10 tall and these jeans fit perfect. I have them in 4 different colors.
Colchester, Vt
Great Fit
I have bought 4 pair of these jeans. They are great. They keep their fit and color. Have gotten complements on them.
North Port, Fl.
Update on these nice looking jeans
I have bought about 8 pair of these jeans different colors. I love them and they fit me perfect! I have read some of the other reviews and they say they run small. Every pair I have bought are true to size. These are skinny jeans made with a slim fit around the hip and thigh area, and everyone is built different that's why it will fit small on some people. Even if you get your normal size, because the cut is different. If a person is a little curvy in that area that may be the reason it fits small. Then you may have to try larger sizes. It is a nice style with a comfortable feel, not stiff like some jeans. I get a lot of compliments when I wear them! :)
These run very small
The fabric is comfortable looking but I can't comment on the wear, as I can't get these jeans on; they run VERY small. I ordered my regular size, a 12, and they are at least one size too small.
" Nice Jeans "
The Review I just read said the jeans fit too small, I also wear size 10 & they fit me perfect, I love them! She must have got a pair of jeans mislabeled like she said. They are very comfortable & not heavy, they look good! :)
These run 1 if not 2 sizes way too small. I wear a size 10 and I couldn't even get the size 12 on. Based on how tight the size 12 was, I doubt I could even squeeze into a size 14. Either they were totally cut wrong, mislabeled or their sizing is WAY OFF for me. Very disappointed.

Saturday, March 9, 2013 - Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.
Sophomore Frank Samluk tossed a seven-inning no-hitter in game two while classmate Matt Lopes sealed the doubleheader sweep over Molloy with a walk off single to lead Wilmington University to 6-5 and 3-2 wins on the campus of Nova Southeastern, finishing the team's Spring Break trip to Florida.
The Wildcats (10-6) needed to make a pair of late game rallies to win each contest, scoring four runs in the eighth inning of game one before Lope hit a game-ending in the bottom of the seventh in game two. Molloy (2-12) fell for the fourth and fifth times in a row, even after getting quality starts from each starting pitcher.
Samluk's no-hitter went quietly in game two, as the fans in attendance at the NSU Baseball Complex were fixed on the Wildcats making its comeback by scoring two runs in the bottom of the sixth and the game winner with two outs and the bases loaded in the seventh. The no-hitter was also overshadowed by the two runs the Wildcats gave up in the game, not typically a stat seen when talking of a no-hitter.
The only blemish on Samluk's line in game two was a pair of hit batsmen and one walk. Samluk also had to work around three Wildcat errors, one of which was his own which led to both the Lions' runs. His only walk and one of his hit batters happened to start the top of the sixth, which led to the two Molly runs. The Lions wanted to move the runners up, laying down a bunt right back to Samluk on the mound. Looking to get the lead runner, Samluk wheeled and fired to third, but the ball sailed high and wide and down the third base line, allowing both runs to score.
But the offense picked Samluk up in the bottom half of the sixth. Josh Hampton, who singled in the first game, extended his hitting streak to 14 straight games with a leadoff double into left center. Jonathan Rodriguez singled into center two batters later and got on the board as the throw from center field deflected off the glove of the cutoff man and trickled all the way into the Molloy dugout allowing Hampton to score. Rodriguez moved to third on the pay and later scored on a Sam Goines sacrifice fly.
After Samluk threw a perfect seventh inning, the Wildcats used a two out rally to settle the score. With two outs and the bases empty, Jordan Johnson worked a walk to start the rally. Jon Castro singled through the right side, allowing Johnson to go first to third, sliding under the tag to stand 90 feet away. After Hampton was intentionally walked to load the bases, Lopes hit a 1-2 pitch the other way, finding the hole through the right side, scoring Johnson easily for the game winning run.
The Wildcats received five hits from five different players in game two and bounced back by recording three errors in the field behind Samluk's no-hitter.
Wilmington also needed a late rally in the day's first game, trailing 5-2 heading into the eighth inning. Hampton collected his only hit of the game in the eighth inning, his team leading ninth double to keep his hitting streak alive, bringing into Johnson and Samluk to cut the lead to 5-4. Hampton was thrown out at third on the play, so the Wildcats needed to start from scratch once again.
Lopes started up the offensive once again in the eighth, singling into right field with one out. Rodriguez followed with a single back up the middle and Goines walked two batters later to load the bases. Castro hit a high chopper to third base and used his legs to beat out the throw to first, bringing home Lopes with the game tying run. Brendan Fallers then battled to a full count and watched ball-four go by, forcing in Rodriguez with the go-ahead run.
Tyler Fries worked his way out of a two on and one out jam in the eighth to preserve the lead, handing the ball over to Nick Marics in the ninth. Marics worked quickly through the final inning, picking up his fourth save of the year.
In addition to his no-hitter, Samluk went 4-for-5 with a run scored in the first game at the plate to lead the Wildcats. Johnson and Lopes also added two hits apiece in the day's first game.
Tim Racek picked up the win, throwing 1.2 innings in relief of starter Jason Seitler. Racek struck out four batters in getting to Fries for the eighth inning. Seitler went the first 5.1 inning in his second start of the season.
The doubleheader capped nine games in six games during Spring Break for the Wildcats, and ended a 13 game stretch since the beginning of the Franklin Pierce series on March 1. The Wildcats are now off until Wednesday, March 13, when they will attempt to hold their home opener at Wilson Field against Millersville.

I have received the short but the actual...
I have received the short but the actual size of XL is 39.5 inches but not max.32.50 inches. Could you tell me what happened?
Wayne Christoffersen
Hey Li,
Our size chart is the recommended body measurements of the person that Maloja suggests for the various sizes of their products. The 32.5 inches is the measurement of your natural waist and not the actual material measurement of the product. If the waist of the shorts were the exact measurement of your physical waist then unless the material is super stretchy like cycling bibs there would be some serious issues with skin irritation and pressure points over your intestines.
Mr.Wayne from your answer, your mean I am telling the true?I have the photo of the short but I don't why I can't upload to your company. If you use your words to be your eyes than let it pass, I will not make any complaint on that brand name priducts and never other it again,O.K.
I'm 5'4" and 130lbs, and I usually wear a size 4 in pants, and these (in a medium) were are massive and baggy on my frame. My boyfriend's bike shorts fit better than mine. Besides the size, the pants are awesome quality and I would happily exchange them for a smaller size. Very breathable for thick fabric, and will definitely withstand the wear I will put them through. Super durable, and will buy Maloja again!
These run BIG!
Other Maloja bike shorts seem true to size, but these are huge!

Cholera is an infection of the small intestine that causes a large amount of watery diarrhea.
V. cholerae
Cholera is caused by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae. The bacteria releases a toxin that causes increased release of water from cells in the intestines, which produces severe diarrhea.
Cholera occurs in places with poor sanitation, crowding, war, and famine. Common locations for cholera include:
People get the infection by eating or drinking contaminated food or water.
A type of vibrio bacteria also has been associated with shellfish, especially raw oysters.
Risk factors include:
Note: Symptoms can vary from mild to severe.
Tests that may be done include:
The goal of treatment is to replace fluid and
The World Health Organization (WHO) has developed an oral rehydration solution that is cheaper and easier to use than the typical IV fluid. This solution is now being used internationally.
Severe dehydration can cause death. Given adequate fluids, most people will make a full recovery.
Call your health care provider if :
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention does not recommend cholera vaccines for most travelers. (Such a vaccine is not available in the United States.)
Travelers should always take precautions with food and drinking water, even if vaccinated.
When outbreaks of cholera occur, efforts should be directed toward establishing clean water, food, and sanitation, because vaccination is not very effective in managing outbreaks.

Definition | Causes | Risk Factors | Symptoms | Diagnosis | Treatment | Prevention
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a disorder of the trigeminal nerve (fifth cranial nerve) that causes severe, shooting pain along one side of the face. The trigeminal nerve senses touch, pain, pressure, and temperature. It also helps make saliva and tears.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
In TN, pain usually lasts for less than a second to a few seconds and may come and go for days, weeks, months, or years. It may go into remission or stop completely for months or years. Over time, though, the attacks may become more frequent and more severe.
In most cases, the cause is unknown. In some cases, it may be caused by an abnormally formed artery or vein near the nerve. The blood vessel can compress the nerve and cause problems. Rarely, TN may occur as a symptom of another underlying disorder, such as:
TN is more common in women aged 50 years or older. Having certain medical conditions, such as multiple sclerosis , or high blood pressure may increase your risk of TN.
The main symptom is searing pain on one side of the face. The pain may be felt inside the mouth or in the lips, cheek, chin, nostril, ear, or near the eye. Rarely, pain may occur in the eye or forehead. Twitching or wincing sometimes accompanies the pain.
The pain is typically sudden, severe, and stabbing. Even though the pain is brief, usually less than two minutes, it can reoccur hundreds of times a day. Attacks can become totally disabling. They may seem to occur at random or be triggered by extremes of temperature, washing, shaving, touching, or tickling the face. There are usually no symptoms between attacks, except perhaps a dull ache.
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. You may have an electrophysiologic test called a trigeminal reflex test. Other tests, such as a CT scan or MRI scan can take evaluate the head and surrounding structures.
You may be given antiseizure medication to help diagnose the disorder.
Talk with your doctor about the best treatment plan for you. Options include:
Your doctor may recommend:
Surgery may be an option if medications fail to relieve symptoms. Microvascular decompression removes an artery or tumor that is pressing on the nerve. Other procedures may be used to cut the trigeminal nerve.
There are no current guidelines to prevent TN.

Learn More About Shaveworks
Ridding your skin of unwanted hair has become a year-round ritual. Plucking, shaving, and waxing may be the most convenient ways to remove your hair, but these methods don't always leave your skin silky-smooth. Redness, bumps, and stinging are common side effects. So while you're finally free of the hair, you may still be reluctant to show off your bare skin because of the lingering irritation. Shaveworks is here to help!
Shaveworks products offer immediate relief to inflammation caused by hair removal. Simply apply The Cool Fix formula to irritated skin. This gentle formula will soothe wherever you've just removed your hair - from the sensitive areas around the brow and upper lip, to larger areas including the bikini zone, underarms, and legs. The Cool Fix formula is an effective hydrator, so there's no need to use an additional moisturizer. And to keep irritation at bay, apply The Cool Fix formula daily.
Here's how The Cool Fix from Shaveworks softens and clears your skin. The formula contains a blend of three exfoliating agents derived from rice bran. These active ingredients are glycolic acid, phytic acid, and salicylic acid and they work together to gently remove dead skin cells from the surface of your skin. By eliminating this debris, ingrown hairs are less likely to form. These agents also have anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties to help keep your skin healthy and free of infection.
As your hair grows back, you can slow its growth by using the shave cream from Shaveworks. This lusciously rich formula also contains the botanical extracts of ginger, lavender, and vanilla to heal and calm your skin.

If you happen to be walking by the old Tiger Stadium field on the third Saturday of the month, you may be surprised to find it full of dogs — and their owners.
Since the pop-up Dog Party at Tiger Stadium began nine months ago, the number of dogs (and humans) has grown from a handful to last month's 50 to 60 four-legged revelers and their humans. And that was on a blustery sub-freezing day.
It was tough on the two-leggers who hunkered into their down jackets and huddled in clutches for warmth. But for the dogs it was bliss. They sniffed and chased each other, ran amok around the covered pitcher's mound and made outrageous tennis ball catches in the outfield.
The parties have become so popular that they've led to a more permanent place for canine revelry in Detroit.
Through Detroit's Adopt-a-Park program, local dog lovers have found the perfect site, a neglected pocket park known as Macomb Playlot on 17th, just across Vernor from Michigan Central Station. Once a playground, it's now a cyclone-fenced trapezoid of occasionally mown grass.
At about three-quarters of an acre, it's not nearly as spacious as the two-acre Tiger Stadium site, but organizers figure there will rarely be more than a few dogs there at a time since it's available every day. Organizers hope the Dog Park will become a model for similar parks in other neighborhoods.
The old Tiger Stadium dog parties were the brainchild of Corktown resident Mary Lorene Carter. After she brought her new puppy home from the dog rescue, her life began to revolve around the black Lab mix, Pasta Batman, who is now 1 1/2. He was her constant companion, even at the local bar.
Through Facebook, she proposed holding monthly "dog parties" at the old Tiger Stadium field. The gatherings, while not officially sanctioned, are "politely ignored" by the city of Detroit, she said.The large open space at Michigan and Trumbull was the perfect location, centrally located in Corktown and completely fenced so dogs could run and socialize without those pesky leashes.
"I don't have a yard but I have this fantastic black mutt that needs a lot of exercise," says Carter, 29, who lives just blocks from the stadium site. Carter works with Loveland Technologies and its project whydontweownthis.com or the Imagination Station where she's a board member.
Carter claims having an off-leash place to run "will cut down on unwanted behavior in dogs: excessive barking, jumping, aggressiveness." And it relieves owners' desire to give their dogs freedom by letting them off-leash in inappropriate places.
And it's not just the dogs who hobnob. Shunda Burks, 27, of Redford brings Remi, her Shih Tzu-Yorkie mix to the monthly meetups and encountered Carter and Pasta Batman early on. "My dog met her dog and they played for hours and hours."
"Our dogs fell in love with each other," says Carter. And now the two women are fast friends as well.
While Carter was rallying the dog crowd to these gatherings, another dog lover, Carly Mys, 36, was hatching a scheme of her own: a permanent off-leash dog park near downtown Detroit, where she is a resident of the Kales Building, and also its leasing manager.
She and her 10-year-old golden retriever, Henry, hunted down Carter at one of her pop-up dog parties and the two joined forces.
Carter launched an online Kickstarter campaign that raised $15,000 in three weeks as Mys and her seven-member board worked on a location for the park. Everyone loved the Tiger Stadium site, but knowing it would eventually be developed, they looked elsewhere.
The women hope the permanent park at the Macomb Playlot on 17th will be open this summer during normal park hours, roughly dawn to dusk. They are planning a shelter with a rain barrel system for canine drinking as well as a playscape for dogs nicknamed Mt. Dogmore.
And for those who love the Michigan and Trumbull location, Carter is planning to keep the monthly Dog Party going as long as the spot is available.
"I think it's really important to achieve that critical mass and that party element," she says. "Everyone likes a party."
Note: Mary Carter's dog's name came from an NPR story about two little boys arguing over naming their dog. One wanted "Pasta," one wanted "Batman." When the debate got a little heated their mom stepped in and declared the dog's name to be "Pasta Batman." Carter and her boyfriend were charmed by the story and hope the name will become the new "Fido."

LH~hormonesModerator: BioTeam
30 posts • Page 2 of 3 • 1, 2, 3
All of you explained the role of LH in female system. Don't forget, LH also play an important, veeery important, role in male system. It stimulates intestitial cells to produce androgens, mostly testosteron
Yes..that's what I mean..(I think I got the wrong name after read about ACTH.. ).
The first time I think that FSH is for female too because it cause the producing of Follicle de Graff isn't it?? But I think that it works also for the male in producing sperm..
Q: Why are chemists great for solving problems?
A: They have all the solutions.
I often get confused because of the 'Follicle' word that's included in the FSH and follicle de graff. Of course men don't have follicle de graff..
Q: Why are chemists great for solving problems?
A: They have all the solutions.
Yeah, that's a natural confusion hehe... Well, it just because that hormone first discovered in female system, which stimulates the development of primary follicle into a mature one (Graffian follicle)

Phoronix: Updated Prey Demo For Linux Released
More than a month ago, Ryan Gordon had released a Prey Linux demo for this first person shooter that was released for Windows back in 2006 and is developed around a heavily-modified version of the id Tech 4 engine. At that time he said the full Linux client for Prey would be out in a few days, but it still has yet to be released...
Well, I've wanted to check out new demo, but now i get seg faults ;/
On my Fedora 10 x86_64 it works just fine, I just played it to the end.
So if I already have the Windows version, can I upgrade it to the Linux version via a download or would I have to buy the Linux version too? Not that I'd be above doing so, just curious.

Two tiny doves symbolizing love and peace provide the surprise in these gorgeous earrings. The kind of touch that makes these a favorite, the doves sit in intricate sterling silver scroll designs circled by an openwork pattern. Dangling highly polished sterling silver pieces reflect light and provide movement. Earrings measure 2" long x 1-1/8" wide and have a post and clutch closure. Made in America.
Like all fine jewelry, Carolyn Pollack Sterling Silver Jewelry should be handled carefully. Store jewelry in a plastic bag, dry and wrapped in tissue paper, when not being worn or displayed. Clean sterling silver with a silver polishing cloth when necessary, but never subject to chlorine, silver dips, chemical solutions or ultrasonic cleaners, as these substances can cause the genuine gemstones to discolor. Never wear jewelry in a swimming pool.

Those who have a hunch that New Yorkers are among the highest-taxed people in the country are correct. The Washington, D.C.-based Tax Foundations annual report titled Facts & Figures: How Does Your State Compare? confirms that the state ranks the highest, or close to it, in the majority of categories listed.
New York ranked No. 1 in gasoline taxes, cigarette taxes and state and local income tax collections per person. It ranked No. 2 in state and local corporate taxes per person and No. 3 in state and local cellphone tax rates, state and local tax burden per capita and in state and local revenue per capita. The study also found that New York has the most state and local debt per person and that its business climate a measure of how each states tax laws affect economic performance ranked last.
The report can be found at http://taxfoundation.org/sites/taxfoundation.org/files/docs/ff2013.pdf.

Paracetamol or Tylenol drug level
The acetaminophen drug level is a blood test used to screen for the presence of the common pain reliever acetaminophen. (Tylenol and paracetamol are among several other names for the same drug.)
This over-the-counter (OTC) drug is used to treat pain and reduce fever. It is safe and effective in the recommended doses. But dosing mistakes are common, and acetaminophen is often used in intentional overdoses, as well. Acetaminophen is also a common ingredient in many other OTC products, so it's easy to take more than you realize. In very high doses, acetaminophen can damage the liver.
This test measures how much acetaminophen is in your blood. Doctors do this test if it's possible you have taken too much of the drug and injured your liver.
An overdose of acetaminophen is a common cause of liver damage. This can be serious and even deadly if left untreated.
Adults should not take more than 4,000 milligrams (mg) of acetaminophen in 24 hours. And according to the American Liver Foundation, you should not take more than 3,000 mg a day for longer than several weeks. Taking 7,000 mg or more in 24 hours is considered a dangerous overdose.
If you think you have taken too much acetaminophen, your doctors may order this test to determine whether you need treatment for liver damage.
The drug can also build up in your body if you take it frequently. Your health care provider may order the test if you show signs of an overdose.
Symptoms include:
Stomach pain and cramping
Loss of appetite
If your health care provider suspects an overdose, other blood tests may be necessary to check for liver damage. When liver cells are damaged, debris from the damaged cells can move into the blood. Liver enzyme tests screen for such debris.
Liver problems can affect blood clotting, so you may also have a blood test to see if your blood clots normally. Women may get a pregnancy blood test.
Many things may affect your lab test results. These include the method each lab uses to do the test. Even if your test results are different from the normal value, you may not have a problem. To learn what the results mean for you, talk with your health care provider.
If your acetaminophen drug level test is high, it means you may be at greater risk for liver damage and need treatment. Your doctor may repeat this test every four to six hours until you are out of danger.
The results of the acetaminophen test appear in micrograms per milliliter (mcg/mL):
A blood level of acetaminophen in the range of 10 to 20 mcg/mL is considered safe.
A blood level of acetaminophen higher than 200 mcg/mL four hours after ingestion means there is risk of liver damage.
If the test shows a level of 50 mcg/mL 12 hours after you've taken the drug, there is still risk of liver damage.
Overdose levels for children are based on age and weight.
The test requires a blood sample, which is drawn through a needle from a vein in your arm.
Taking a blood sample with a needle carries risks that include bleeding, infection, bruising, or feeling dizzy. When the needle pricks your arm, you may feel a slight stinging sensation or pain. Afterward, the site may be slightly sore.
Many OTC cold and flu medicines contain acetaminophen. If you have been taking more than one of these medications during the same time period, the amount of acetaminophen in your blood may be dangerously high.
If you normally drink three or more alcoholic beverages a day, you may be at greater risk for liver damage from acetaminophen. Certain other drugs, such as aspirin, may also affect the results of this test. Ask your health care provider for more information.
You don't need to prepare for this test. But if you think you have taken an overdose of acetaminophen, go to the emergency room right away. Among other things, doctors may give you charcoal to inactivate the acetaminophen. Prompt treatment is important to save your liver.

13:30 - 18:00 |
Roadmap detailed discussions |
Agenda day 2
Now - end July: Finish PVM feature implementations
July - August: PVM API stabilisation, BPMN
Goals of he meeting
Define the roadmap
- A lot of initiatives have impact on roadmap
- distill most important decisions
- analyse impact on roadmap
- discuss and decide on those important decisions
- come to a concrete achievable roadmap
that way we all know what we can expect this year
- Get to know each other to improve the collaboration
- Clarify which parties take on which task assignments and responsibilities and commitments. Work is only pulled by volunteers. No workload is being pushed to community people.
BPMN compatibility
Biggest question around BPMN is the suitability for developers. jPDL was much more readable. Will BPMN shortcut suffice? Will just have to take the pain of a verbose language? Or do we need to go for usability, compactness and readability without compromises.
How do we make it easy for users to work with all these namespaces (if we decide to put custom conveniences in namespaces)
Is there a clear scope we can target? Simple or descriptive conformance? Maybe Bernd could prepare this topic as he's closest to the spec. But most important is not the knowledge of the actual conformance, but arguments that give us guidance on what kind of conformance we target and how strict we'll be. The alternative is that we define our own subset of what we think is useful.
Database upgrades. Automatic QA for upgrade.
Extracting PVM into separate library?
Define which aspects need to be pluggable/configurable and which not.
Currently our strategy is to combine the PVM with other components like task management and command interceptors into the core activi jar. So the biggest question is if we will be extracting the PVM into a separate project jar, and productize it. Roughly, the downside of extracting it is that we'll have to define a very clear boundary between what is in the PVM and what is not. This will also lead to more decoupling and hence more indirections being placed. That might impact the readability and simplicity of the whole engine.
Further, it only makes sense to extract the PVM if we do the effort of productizing it. Meaning, have a specific documentation set for it and also build out a test suite for the PVM itself.
Currently we have the PVM design as the basis, but we avoid all this because of practical reasons: 1) We can go faster in terms of features if we combine the PVM with the other components. 2) We don't have to do the effort of productizing (QA + docs) of the PVM component itself.
One aspect of this is timer sessions and message session: Currently, timers and async continuations are part of the PVM infrastructure. This implies that the CommandContext, Interceptors, Service API also should be included in the PVM. Is that desirable?
Another aspect is testing. The test helper methods often want to make use of implementation classes. Even if the test method API doesn't expose the impl classes, those test helper classes always will have a dependency on the implementation lib.
DB persistence
iBatis, JPA and others?
Is the current architecture OK for 5.0?
Cloud support
The biggest question here is: How will we align the roadmap of researching the cloud solution with the roadmap towards 5.0GA in november?
Query APIs
An important aspect of cloud is the query API. We currently plan to build out the query API similar to jBPM 4. For example
But that might be hard to implement on cloud persistence. Maybe there are solutions. MapReduce?
For persistence, we can serialize the process instances to JSON. Diff between DB is then still granularity: Cloud stores whole process instances, DB stores executions individually. Implementations of PersistenceSession impl should be able to cope with this diff by using the object's relations in the cloud.
Delegatable tasks
- Process instance migration
- History / reporting
- Email notifications / email form processor
- Business calendar
- Rules integration
- web service invocation
- Functional activity types / connectors: SQL, SAP/Abab, file, esb, xml transformation
- Identity pluggability + LDAP implementation
- Nomenclature
Define PVM event (api)/history event/event (listeners) and map it to BPMN
Configuration, initialization of process engines
Currently there is the strategy of setup building jars containing configurations. There is the programmatic creation of a process engine, there is the ProcessEngines registry and the servlet for automatic initialization.
We should establish a common strategy on how we deal with configuration files and initialization.
Following aspects should be considered and as much as possible unified:
Registry pattern
- auto scanning and init and destroy
- basic process engine creation
- support for multiple engines
- ant process engine initialization, caching and destruction. also, how does an ant task reference a process engine
Other topics
- Discuss decision process
- Common 'terminology list'
- OSGi compatibility
- Process class loading
- To what extend can we have a dependency on Spring for core Activiti functionality?
- Naming of Job (name clash with spring Batch)
- Choreography: could it be a way to handle the multiplicity mismatches?
- Work out the cloud example: Elect the next european president, or process the voting for the next eurovision song contest.

OK I was so pleased when I got this camera. I thought it took great pics. Then the camera was dropped twice, and the battery case wouldn't stay closed at all. The pictures are sometimes very good, but group pictures? Uh-uh! They look lousy. After about 2-3 pictures, the flash needs to be recharged, and I hate that because the details are not good quality without flash. I don't even like taking pics anymore because they're not good quality. One positive is that it takes GREAT portraits, and the video is really really great. Next time, I'm buying a warrenty though.

You get what you pay for Nice size little camera with high mega pixels. It is more complicated than my more expensive Sony. Lots of steps to go through to changed the settings. Way too much delay between pictures. The door for the batteries and memory card is hard to open and close. After reading reviews, I have discovered that is a common problem with this camera. I am sorry I bought it.

Good Pics but battery hinge is poorly designed This was a refurbished and I bet the problem was the battery hinge which never worked right from the day I got it. Too lazy to return but eventually stopped using it because inevitably whenever you were trying to take a picture .. the latch would open and the batteries would pop out!!

Wow….it's been so long since I've blogged about anything! It takes a lot of patience to put a post together (which I dont have much of! Lol) I thought I better update on some new changes before I get too far behind!
The family room has new bamboo blinds, the antique herbariums are hung as well as the television, and I got two adorable antique putti/cherubs from 1st Dibs. I have always had a thing for cherubs and love when I see them incorporated in a rooms design. These were a major splurge and I had wanted some for quite some time, so when I saw them I was in love! I felt so guilty after spending the money though that I gave my husband my credit cards and told him to hide them somewhere I'd never find them!
Isn't he the cutest?? The other one went on the mantel
I love how the room is still plenty sunny but just not so intense, and I love all the texture these blinds add.
I've ordered a new coffee table as well
The Allie cocktail table by Lillan August here
I think the square shape will fit the space better. Can't wait to see it in the room!
That's it for now, there's plentry more going on but I've got to save some for another post! Hope everyone is doing well and having a great weekend. The weather here is wonderful :)

That makes the driveway your first line of defense. Don't you want to know the second someone steps foot on your property?
Driveway alarms vary in capability. Some are motion detectors, others break-beam systems but all the best driveway protectors are housed here at HomeSecurityStore.com.
Do you store your boat or trailer in your driveway and worry about somebody tampering with it? A product like the Optex Wireless 2000 Driveway Alarm, which is an inconspicuous motion detector itself, will alert you the moment your perimeter is breached up to 2000 feet. away. Want something that will immediately scare criminals away?

Driveway alarms are the most practical and easy to install form of alarm systems. How much ground they can cover and how they transmit intrusion is up to you. From wireless driveway alarm systems to long range handheld driveway alert alarms, we carry a seemingly endless supply of driveway alarms.

Great, downloading right now!
got in installed - 2.6.30 and xorg 1.6.3 and no patches - thats more like it.
definately noticed performance improvemnts with nexiuz and saurbraten.
glxgears now gives me higher fps with compositing enabled than without... for some odd reason.
Ah, gotchya.
(btw, I'm damned tired as of writing this, but can't sleep until tried out new drivers!)
I suspect ati would have done somthing similar if the opengl spec hadn't had some fairly drastic changes in that area. In any case, now that it's part of the standard, I'll be using primitive restarts in my terrain renderer.
In other areas, no complaints about 9.8 so far. Still can't start amdcccle (something in my system really doesn't like that program), but otherwise it's all fine.
I said I would forget about fglrx, but since this time it seems to support recent kernels and I've heard that Oblivion will be playable in wine with this version, I'm giving it a try. It seems to work ok with 2.6.31-rc6 (after re-exporting find_task_by_vpid). The performance is also good, but compositing is broken, as always (maximizing a window takes forever). And xv is also broken, as always (fucking washed colors).
I'll try to play Oblivion. (edit) Nope, it doesn't work. In fact it RESETS MY COMPUTER after the game menu (it doesn't hang it, it resets it). Oh well. Back to the OS drivers.
Last edited by Fran; 08-17-2009 at 04:28 PM.
I tried it, got "undefined symbol resVGAShared" or something like that.
I think I'll stick with the better-written xorg drivers.
Waaawaaawuuuu! I think ATI makes first rock solid driver for linux. All head aches gone. XV video does not distort picture. OpenGL works better under compiz. Even I can use OpenGL Video render under AIGLX now. Superb!

Ivon Prefontaine's insight:
Multitasking is not just about digital tools. It covers a broad range of contemporary issues and the article begins with just such a point. The length of classes are 4-6 times the length of many students' attention spans and we don't think that will be a problem? @ivon_ehd1

At the Nueva School in Hillsborough, Calif., design thinking is built into students' and teachers' everyday lives. Via Fred Zimny, Kelly Christopherson

Deconstruction (Derrida) is about examining something critically and reconstructing it anew (Dewey). @ivon_ehd1
Kelly Christopherson's curator insight,
April 5, 1:11 PM
A great visual of how Design Thinking is part of the students' and teachers' lives each day.
" I've started recognizing a common thread to the latest trends in teaching. Flipped learning, blending learning, student-centered learning, project-based learning, and even self-organized learning—they all marginalize the teacher's expertise. Or, to put it more euphemistically, they all transform the teacher into a more facilitative role." Via Nik Peachey, Robin Yu, Mark G Kirshner, Lynnette Van Dyke
Ivon Prefontaine's insight:
There are two things that stood out for me in this article. First, Derrida's concept of deconstruction is a critical deconstructing of what we think is reality. His writing about teaching would not have eliminated the teacher and replaced the teacher with a burger flipper. The teacher's role would certainly transform and move beyond what we understand it to be, but it would be reconstructed to be further deconstructed. The second point is that teaching is about leading and relating to students. That does not mean we do without teachers. It means that teachers are finding their way along the path. @ivon_ehd1
Nik Peachey's curator insight,
April 3, 6:04 AM
Interesting article, but can't say that I agree on what the conception of a teachers expertise is. It's not about subject knowledge it's about understanding learning.
RossanaPiccini's comment,

This is not just sad news for us teachers, it is a dangerous belief in the power a few powerful people to control education at large. I find this worrying.
66 percent of respondents say multitasking enables them to accomplish more at work, more than a third (36 percent) say the many distractions prevent them from doing their best work. So how does multitasking affect you? Let's look at the research. Via Marc Wachtfogel, PhD, Mark E. Deschaine Ph.D.

Ivon Prefontaine's insight:
Accountability and responsibility are different phenomenon. The former is external ordering and the latter indicates autonomy in teaching as ethical action. @ivon_ehd1
I often wonder if what we see as teaching at professional learning events would be acceptable in a high school classroom. If the purpose of professional development (Pro-D) is professional learning, then what is our evidence that learning does, in fact, occur? Are we using effective teaching practices in Pro-D? Via Tom D'Amico (@TDOttawa)
Ivon Prefontaine's insight:
Begin with changing the title from professional development to something that speaks about teacher integrity, responsibility, and autonomy. I dislike being developed by anyone when I don't have a say in it. @ivon_ehd1
The main reason most parents go to libraries is to get books for their kids. So what becomes of the magic of being surrounded by books when e-readers become more prevalent? Via Jen Mac, Caroline Duke
Ivon Prefontaine's insight:
Libraries remain important. Children need books and other tools which they can find in a library. Librarians become digital guides alongside children and teachers. @ivon_ehd1
Stephen Wood's curator insight,
April 14, 3:00 PM
The book is an artifact. It has a life. I don't get that same feeling with e-readers. I want to hold the book in my hand; admire the cover, inside the dustjacket, the font. I want to turn pages. I want to lend it, have others enjoy it and revisit it. I do none of these things with an e-reader.

Technology has captured the American education system. As it does, the money keeps flowing in -- and so do questions about its impact. Via Bonnie Bracey Sutton
Ivon Prefontaine's insight:
Digital tools in school are not proven effective for learning yet, therefore they are not effective for teaching in all cases. @ivon_ehd1
Today's schools are focusing on boosting kids' technological proficiency and warning them about the perils of the web. But something critical is missing from this education. Via Lynnette Van Dyke
Ivon Prefontaine's insight:
So it is not as simple as labeling one group digital natives and another digital immigrants. @ivon_ehd1

Ivon Prefontaine's insight:
Although some curriculum might be considered digital, not all of it is. Teachers need to figure out what tools best serve the situation and people involved. @ivon_ehd1
Today in El Monte and South El Monte, you can find a number of Asian supermarkets with signs that tri-lingually display the words: supermarket, siêu thị, and supermercado. This wasn't the case thirty years ago. When my family first arrived to the San Gabriel Valley as refugees, they couldn't find particular foods in the supermarket. So we grew them -- lemongrass, herbs, and other hard-to-find vegetables. Gardening was and still is a norm for my Vietnamese family. One vegetable grown in our yard was bắc hà, known as (and looks like) a "giant elephant ear." My dad uses it to cook canh chua (sour soup), a popular Vietnamese meal made of catfish, pineapple, and tomatoes, all simmered in tamarind-flavored broth.

This is a provocative article which challenges some thinking out there. Technology is a conversation. It involves actions and words that are carefully crafted. @ivon_ehd1
There has been a lot of talk on the idea that education as a whole takes a long time to change. As an educator, this is a challenging notion, since we are seeing many people doing some amazing things that did not exist when I was a student. Via Yashy Tohsaku, Mark E. Deschaine Ph.D.
Ivon Prefontaine's insight:
The opening sentence begins suggesting there has been a lot of talk, but provides no sense of who is talking. I know people who talk to themselves a lot and think that constitutes a lot of talk. What if I touched the soul of students each day? I think that is what teaching is about. It is not about glib catch phrases about twitter and powerful teaching. @ivon_ehd1

Teaching learning will help the process. It is about the process, always; that's the life skill.. Students need to get that message, early and often.
Ivon Prefontaine's insight:
There are many possible teaching and learning approaches. When we limit the definitions of words and they serve a technical purpose, we struggle. Technology is a conversation about how we use tool and those experiences. @ivon_ehd1 |

We also have a social event once a month where we meet to have a pint and chat about all things photographic. We're a non profit group who's aim is to run low cost sessions so our members have a chance to improve their photographic skills and techniques and explore their creative potential. So whether you're just starting out, looking to learn something new or are an experienced pro, come hang out with us and share your passion. We are a group of photographers with varying degree's of ability and equipment, but equally happy to share our knowledge and experience.
Whether you're in to digital or film photography, have a pro dslr or a mobile phone camera, whether you're looking to advance your photographic skill set or would simply like to hang out with a friendly bunch of people who can introduce you to the real London, we look forward to seeing you soon.
