Developing a MVC Component/Adding backend actions
From Joomla! Documentation
It's not clear to me where the word "helloworld" refers to in these examples. Can you please clarify when 'helloworld' refers to the component,controller,model,table,view or form? While following this, I've changed the name of my component, and when running this I get a 'call to member function getTable() on non-object'. It seems that I used the wrong name somewhere, but I have no idea where.
We're also introducing JForms and JFields. These are powerful and important, and warrant some richer explanation.
There is a change in /admin/views/helloworlds/tmpl/default_body.php that isnt mentioned on this page but is present in the archive file.
Model subtlety
Note that the model loaded in the getModel function by the HelloWorlds controller (admin/controllers/helloworlds.php) is NOT the HelloWorlds model; it is instead the HelloWorld model. The HelloWorlds model (HelloWorldModelHelloWorlds) extends JModelList, which has no delete function. The HelloWorld model (HelloWorldModelHelloWorld) extends JModelAdmin, which has the delete function needed to delete items.
Naming confusion
I agree with the first user. helloworld is an abused word in the example. We could call the table greetings, so the models (greetings and greeting) and so on. Without using different and clear name the reader cannot understand the mechanism of the MVC pattern. There is also a lack of documentation, e.g. when we create the form in admin/models/forms/helloworld.xml we should give a link or something to possible values of the fields used.
- +1 over here. Naming is too confusing: "HelloWorldControllerHelloWorlds and HelloWorldControllerHelloWorld have to be coded." oh come on, I can't believe there's no better example than "HelloWorld"
admin/controllers/helloworlds.php and
admin/controllers/helloworld.php files... That's just too much for me!

The counting of the checkboxes are not working any more in Joomla 2.5. Does someone have a solution to this?

I wish it was finally marked as "stable".
And: Is there any benchmark to test reliability of a FS?
Phoronix: Testing The "Pretty Beefy" Btrfs Changes In Linux 3.2
Among many other enhancements and alterations, the Linux 3.2 kernel, the Btrfs file-system has some "pretty beefy" changes. Btrfs in Linux 3.2 merges in some long-standing Btrfs branches with new capabilities.
I wish it was finally marked as "stable".
And: Is there any benchmark to test reliability of a FS?
Its quite sad to watch btrfs progressing.
It has been in development for a few years now, however still even lacks a consistency checker, shows often suboptimal performance in real-world use and tends to degrade over time.
I lost data two times, because a btrfs-partition couldn't be mounted from one day to another.
Guess it will take another 2-3 years until btrfs is ready to replace ext4.
As far as I understand, they have actively refused to deliver inconsistent filesystem checker for sole reason of not wanting that bad first impression.
This way or another, ext4, xfs or even raiser3 are still options to utilize depending on FS task.
Its pretty bad Oracle refused to release ZFS under more liberal license, same reason why OpenOffice got forked, I guess thats because a lot of people do not appreciate Oracle.
It would be no wonder, if ZFS will be pushed under BSD or GPL(less possible) the day BTRFS gets stable.
Hehe, you're probably right there. But pulling the power cord or sudden power loss most times resulted in drama here.
"Rome wasn't built in a day"
Seriously, I use XFS, XFS has been around for over 16 years now, they're still improving it and fixing bugs.
BtrFS has been around for all of like a few years now, it's still incredibly new, some things it does have never even been done before. Back off and quit complaining that it's "Not done yet" every few days. Please?
It'll be ready when it is ready, in the mean time be thankful that any Linux file system beats what Microsoft and Apple push.
That's something that's always interested me, you only see the Linux filesystems compared against themselves.
How do they stack up against NTFS?
With the NTFS module in the kernel, it would be possible to add comparative benchmarks to this wouldn't it?
Who needs NTFS?!
For normal use there is ntfs3g and ntfs in-kernel drivers. For both the performance is just adequate to drag and drop stuff for compatibility.
If you think about using NTFS professionally, you should first clear its legal status; then you will probably be looking into commercial driver. Defragmentation and inconsistency issues included.

Gah! I hate it when news sites report opinion/editorial stories as fact. News Flash! Aliens have landed! ...Well, actually, we were just twisting your nuts, but now that we've got your attention, here's why we think aliens might be landing in your back yard in the very near, and/or possibly distant future of a parallel universe near you!
I swear, the first paragraph of one of Phoronix's editorials, followed by the subsequent letdown, will some day be the end of me.
The NVidia driver will cause your machine to spontaneously explode! ...Well, actually, it's just a beta driver, and there's just this one minor bug that annoys us.

Well, I see your point. Source maybe being worked on to be available in Linux, all the rest about Steam, and other Source games may very well be pure projection of our desires.
What the chips! What sort of crap are you pushing here?
Slashdot covered your "privileged information" almost EIGHT months ago.
As already said: if you're that desperate for visits, then don't get a reputation for bullshit.
I'm usually quite grateful for the news posted here, but I might feel the need to question it a little further from now-on. Congratulations
I wonder if all of Ryan's recent porting jobs are going to debut on steam? His last 3 ports to linux have yet to see the light of day, UT3, Prey, and Serious Sam 2.
I did actually. I saw one speculative remark, based (from what we can tell in TFA) solely upon the aforementioned eight-month-old information.
That was the first paragraph.
The following five paragraphs contained wonderful information about Steam, but do not in any way explain the sensationalist topic.
The seventh paragraph reported (48-hour-old) news that Postal 3 would be ported to Linux, whilst the eighth could simply be paraphrased as "we've predicted this already, so you should listen to what we say, k?"
So Postal 3's based upon Source, and it's coming to Linux? They couldn't just be doing a Blizzard and simply decide to work in-part with the Cedega/Wine teams, right? Or, could they have switched engines? More to the point, if this is the wonderful news you're bringing to us - why the wording in the following sentence?
If there's something you can't tell us, don't write an article with a sensationalist headline in order to dance around the topic with a view to hits and headlines.Originally Posted by TFA
So yes, I did RTFA. Three times now.
It seems that life as a Linux user is getting better and better by leaps and bounds these days. I just hope that Valve will decide to port their already released games as that should be a relatively trivial matter after the engine is ported

Draco Meteor is unique in the fact that it can be taught to only Dragon-type Pokémon, but any Dragon-type can learn it at any level, as long as it has a maxed - out happiness. Arceus, although not a true Dragon-type, can learn this move only while holding the Draco Plate. Mew can't learn Draco Meteor, despite it saying that it can learn any kind of move.
In Battle
Comets are summoned down from the sky. The attack's recoil sharply reduces the user's Sp. Atk stat.
Super Contests
Earn +3 if the Pokémon that just went hit max Voltage.
In the games
In order for the player's Pokémon to learn Draco Meteor, he/she must travel east from Celestic Town to Route 210 and have Rock Climb. An old lady, named Grandma Wilma, lives in a cabin in the hills there, and she will teach one of the player's Pokémon on whom he/she chooses Draco Meteor. While in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, the move can be learned by the Move Tutor house in Blackthorn City. In Pokémon Black and White, the move can be learned at Opelucid City.
- In Pokemon Black and White, Drayden and Iris states that Draco Meteor is the "strongest Dragon-type move" when teaching the player's Dragon-type Pokemon. This indicates that with the exception of Roar of Time, which has a Base Power of 150, a signature move of Dialga, and the only Dragon-type attack slightly stronger than Draco Meteor, it is one of the most powerful Dragon-type attacks which can be used by any Dragon Pokemon with maximum happiness.

As much as I love to throw sunshine and lollipops NVIDIA's way... I have to admit that I feel that the driver quality has been regressing a lot in recent years. It seems like every driver version introduces some new esoteric bug and they don't really give the impression that they care much to fix it.
The codebase must be a complete trainwreck if simply touching one area makes the whole thing fall apart.
Performance is kinda good... but only when the driver kinda works. So I can get 1,000 fps in L4D2 until the game hangs in the safe room. That's the sort of thing that doesn't show up in the benchmarks.

- Weight: 80 - 110 pounds
Medical Conditions Seen in Bloodhounds
- Hip Dysplasia
- Skin Fold Dermatitis
- Cherry Eye
- Ectropion
- Otitis Externa
- Elbow Dysplasia
- Entropion
- Gastric Dilation and Volvulus
- Hypothyroidism
- Keratoconjunctivitis Sicca
Bloodhound Traits
- Joggin Partner
- Lap Dog
- Good with Children
- Warm Weather
- Cold Weather
- Grooming Requirements
- Shedding
- Barking
- Ease of Training
Bloodhound History
- The bloodhound is probably a direct descendent of the St. Hubert's hound, which was in Europe by the 700s.
- In 1066, William the Conqueror is credited with bringing them to England.
- These were some of the earliest pure-breeding strains of dogs, kept by Church dignitaries in carefully bred packs.
- The name bloodhound comes from "blooded hound," in reference to their pure blood.
- By the 1800s, bloodhounds were in America.
- Bloodhounds, along with other scenthounds, were sometimes used to trail escaped slaves. They continue to be used to trail humans. They do not attack people when they find them, as is sometimes alleged.
- The AKC recognized the bloodhound in 1885.
- Bloodhounds hold tracking records for length and staleness of trail.
Bloodhound Behavior Concerns
- Makes a placid and amiable companion.
- Good with children, but its independent nature and low energy level may be frustrating for children at times.
- Generally friendly toward strangers.
- Good with other dogs and pets.
- Likes to follow its nose, tends to wander, and does not come when called.
- Likes to hunt.
- Often barks and bays loudly when excited or on a trail.
- Tends to be stubborn and methodical. Does best with reward-based training involving food.
Bloodhound Suggested Exercises
- Makes a calm and reliable housedog.
- Its physical exercise needs can be met with a long walk or short run. It prefers to walk and sniff and explore.
- Care must be taken if allowed off leash because the bloodhound tends to get caught up in following scent trails, and it's not overly obedient or inclined to come when called.
- Bloodhounds tend to do well at dog parks.
- They do not like hot weather.
Bloodhound Grooming
- Coat is short, thick and tight.
- Brushing once a week will remove dead hair.
- Shedding is average.
- The mouth and wrinkles should be examined, cleaned and dried regularly.
- Be prepared for drool.
Suggested Bloodhound Nutritional Needs
- Bloodhounds have a tendency to become overweight.
- Adult dogs should be fed a balanced diet, with restricted calories if the dog starts to gain too much weight.
- Puppies should be fed a large-breed growth food, which slows their growing rate but not final size. This may decrease the incidence or severity of hip dysplasia in adults.
Did you know?
- Grapes and raisins are harmful to dogs.
- Some dog parasites are transferable to humans.
- Many common pet ailments may be detected early and prevented by visiting your veterinarian twice yearly - saving both time, money, and most importantly, ensuring the best quality of life for your dog.

South Asia; Islamic; World
Research Interests
South Asia; early modern & modern history of India/Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran and Central Asia; world history; Muslims in global history; Muslim interactions with the non-Muslim world; Sufism; subaltern history; the Indian Ocean; Persian & Urdu travel writing; Islamic printing.
After beginning my career as a historian of Islamic India and Pakistan, I have traced networks of Muslim activity that connect Afghanistan, Iran, the Indian Ocean, Islamic Africa and Central Asia, as well as Muslim diasporas as far apart as Europe, America and Japan. My writings span the domains of global, social, religious, cultural and literary history. My books have ranged over the forms of Islam which evolved among the tribal societies of early modern Afghans to the intersection of religion and colonial service among the Muslim soldiers of the British Empire and the emergence of industrialized religious economies in the nineteenth century Indian Ocean, Atlantic and Pacific arenas. My current book reconstructs the beginnings of modern Middle Eastern and European intellectual exchange by following the first Iranian students to study in Europe between 1812 and 1819.
In recent years, I have focused on positioning Islam and Muslims in global history through such topics as intellectual and technological interchange between Asia and Europe; Muslim global travel writings; the transnational genealogy of Afghan modernism; and the world history of 'Islamic' printing. I have also used the networks forged by Sufi brotherhoods to understand pre-modern and early modern mechanisms of Muslim expansion from the Middle East to China and beyond. One hallmark of my writing has been to join together the study of the early modern and modern periods, not least with regard to the question of multiple globalisms and globalizations.
In methodological terms, much of my work has drawn on the insights of anthropology, an interest that developed as I lived, researched and traveled in India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Chinese Central Asia, Iran, Turkey, Syria, Egypt, Israel, Yemen, Oman, Jordan, Morocco, Sri Lanka, South Africa, Myanmar and Malaysia. Given the fact that South Asia is home to the world's largest Muslim population, my work seeks to position the region in a global and comparative perspective. To this end, I serve as director of the UCLA Program on Central Asia; on the Association of Asian Studies' South Asia Council (from March 2015); on the Executive Committee of the American Institute of Afghanistan Studies; and on the editorial boards of the International Journal of Middle East Studies and the South Asia Across the Disciplines book series.
Through my initial training in South Asian and Middle East Studies and my abiding interests in Muslims in Asia, Africa and Europe, I endeavor to bring global history into conversation with Islamic history.

The most beautiful creature of them all. A Jerricca is a rare breed of pure hottness and can make any man sweat from a mile away. They stun people with their beauty leaving them breathless. The only people that generally don't like Jerricca's are girls. They see her as a threat and are usually jealous. Jerricca's are also very protective of their Mothers and boyfriends, so watch out. These non-violent creatures will attack if you threaten certain territory of theirs.
"Don't talk to him! That's Jerricca's boyfriend. You don't have a chance."

Jerricca's are genuinely very attractive people. They have large breasts, blonde hair, blue eyes and are tall. Never large. But still in charge. But if you meet one, feel blessed! They are a very rare breed and weather you love them or hate them, I guarantee you will never forget them. Truly one of a kind.

The grace and grandeur of Middleton Place continues to awe and inspire thousands of visitors each year. With the recent release of the documentary Middleton Place: A Phoenix Still Rising, many more people can experience the wonder of the Gardens, House Museum, and Plantation Stableyards at the 272-year-old National Historic Landmark.
Middleton Place: A Phoenix Still Rising will have its Charleston premiere screening at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 22 at the Charleston Library Society, 164 King Street, downtown. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased by calling 800-838-3006 or online at the Library Society's website, www.charlestonlibrarysociety.net. Middleton Place Foundation President Charles Duell will be on hand to introduce the film, and field questions about the Middleton family, the historic landmark and the documentary.
The film relates the history of Middleton Place and the Middleton family from the early 18th century to the present. It combines remarkable video and historic documentation from the Middleton Place archives, with cogent narration by CBS News correspondent Martha Teichner, and Charles Duell. Footage was collected in every season and at every event, and digital animation was added to bring the historic gardens to life.
"The goal was to produce a clear, concise story of Middleton Place, frame the plantation as a microcosm of American history, and illustrate how its continued preservation and interpretation is vitally important to the story of the United States," says Tracey Todd, Vice-President of Museums at the Middleton Place Foundation, and the producer of A Phoenix Still Rising.
"Middleton Place is all about history, and this documentary shows that in riveting detail. Our shared history is seen through America's oldest and most important landscaped gardens, the extraordinary family-owned objects in the House Museum and the living history programs and heritage breed livestock in the Plantation Stableyards – all beautifully photographed in high-definition. We hope the documentary will compel viewers to visit and support the Foundation's mission of preservation and interpretation."
The film was shot and edited by Sunhead Projects, a local video production company headed by Mark McKinney and Steve Lepre. McKinney and Lepre spent hours at the plantation documenting sunrises and sunsets, natural wildlife and Stableyards livestock, historic re-enactments, and items from the Foundation's collection. "We shot about 60 hours of footage and hundreds of photographs and scans from the Middleton archives," McKinney says. "The footage that you see in the documentary is about 20 percent of the total. Telling the story of Middleton family history and the Middleton property was always exciting for us.

Aren't ex-Canucks like Cam Neely or Mark Messier in the Hall?
Granted, neither did HOF play when here.
I'll be there during weekend 2! I'll be representing appropriately. Then again, so few Americans actually care about hockey.
I talked mad shit to the Canucks fans wearing their jerseys W1. Good times.

Chicken Satay Burgers
I am back from my short vacation in Vegas and just in time to enjoy some amazing warm weather right here in Toronto! In fact it has been almost warm enough to be full on summer and that means that it is time to get some grilling on! I have had the idea for these chicken satay inspired burgers on my mind for months and now that with the warmer weather it was time to make them! The basic idea behind these burgers is to include all of the flavours of tasty Thai style chicken satay right down to serving them topped with a spicy peanut dipping sauce! In chicken satay the meat is normally marinated in a marinade before being grilled so I started out by seasoning the ground chicken for the burgers with a slight variation of the satay marinade along with an egg to help hold things together. After the chicken has been seasoned it is formed into patties and grilled and these burgers are just that easy to make! I served the burgers topped with one of my favourite guilty pleasures, a spicy peanut sauce along with some Thai inspired slaw to provide a contrast in textures though you could easily go with other options like cucumbers and onions.
