Laurent talked to World Radio Geneva about the upcoming Lift conference (February 7-9) :
I changed the syntax of the Mocha Inheritance code a bit, to what I think you'll agree is easier to read:
Function.prototype.inherit = function(fnc) { var constr = this; var Constructor = function(){ if (fnc) fnc.apply(this, arguments); constr.apply(this, arguments); }; Constructor.prototype = new (fnc || this)(); Constructor.prototype.constructor = fnc || this; return Constructor; };
Prototype inheritance reduced to the max :-)
In its current incarnation, Javascript prototype inheritance has some shortcomings. In particular, prototypes do not inherit their parent's constructor and methods in child prototypes can not dynamically access an inherited method they override.
After Hannes' and Jürg's suggestions for improvements to Dean Edwards' Base Class approach to Javascript inheritance, I made an attempt to solve the problem by focusing more intensely on fixing Javascript's prototype inheritance than adding class sugar around it.
What I came up with is this:
Mocha Inheritance does its magic in these 20 lines of code:
Function.prototype.inherit = function(inherit) { var fnc = inherit ? this : function(){}; inherit = inherit || this; var Constructor = function(){ inherit.apply(this, arguments); fnc.apply(this, arguments); }; Constructor.prototype = new inherit(); Constructor.prototype.constructor = inherit; return Constructor; }; Function.prototype.applySuper = function(method,obj,args) { var that = this; do { if (that.prototype[method] && that.prototype[method] != obj[method]) return that.prototype[method].apply(obj,args); that = that.prototype.constructor; } while (that != Object); };
Creating a new prototype "Mensch" with mocha inheritance from "Animal":
var Mensch = Animal.inherit();
Letting a previously created constructor "Mensch" mocha inherit from "Animal":
Mensch = Mensch.inherit(Animal);
And here an example of a Mensch method "evolve" that overrides what it inherits from Animal, but still manages to do nothing different:
Mensch.prototype.evolve = function(){ return this.constructor.applySuper('evolve', this, arguments); }
With some more syntactic sugar around it, I think this is quite a nice approach.
Helma 1.5.3 makes dynamically loaded code repositories available immediately after the app.addRepository() statement and offers improved logging behavior along with several small bug fixes.
The 5th edition of David Flanagan 's Javascript - The Definitive Guide is now also available on Safari and I have it on my online bookshelf :-)
I must admit that when I started reading the 5th edition, I quickly started to look forward to the 6th edition, although the 5th edition is well worth getting for anybody that works with Javascript.
The 5th edition seems to do some selective catching up and shies away even from Javascript 1.6 additions that look certain to be part of ECMA-262 version 4. Apparently, David Flanagan drew a carfully drafted line for what he wanted to include in the 5th edition and was thinking ahead to the 6th edition already. That's not a bad thing, of course. The result is a very clean 5th edition.
Too bad E4X ended up getting buried in the Client-Side section. I hope the 6th edition will treat it as an extension to Core Javascript instead. Hopefully, including mentioning it in the Literals section and in chapter 3, even-though it is an optional "standard extension".
One of the things that makes this book so great is the fact that it cleanly separates between the browser/client side and the core language, making it the best companion when working in Rhino based environments on the server-side such as Helma .
Naturally, when working in an environment like Helma, the limitations on using the newest language extensions do not apply, and the 5th edition doesn't quite cater to this niche as well as it could.
So, basically, I hope for a bit more "Rhino" in the 6th edition of the "Rhino book" ;-) ...and maybe even a chapter on existing server-side frameworks.
The belgian group Hooverphonic was clearly the highlight of this years Mont-Soleil Open Air Festival ! I already really liked their last album No More Sweet Music , but seeing them perform live was even more impressive. Unlike many groups these days, which can't match the quality of their recordings outside the studio, Hooverphonic's performance was excellent!
Hot on the heels of Helma 1.5.1 and in order to clear the slate for Helma/Rhino 1.6, which will bring us E4X support amongst other goodies, Helma 1.5.2 has been released , fixing a potentially annoying error logging issue.

I just wanted to say that you compare AAC (M4A file from iTunes) and MP3 (from Amazon). And yes, AAC spectrograms usually look better. Some MP3 V0 spectrograms are better than AAC 256... Joking aside, spectrograms convey no information whatsoever about the quality of a lossy encoder. As long as the bought files are artifact free, I really don't see why any user needs or should care about the encoder settings used by an online shop. I doubt that shops care about users who want to transcode files, and I'd say users wishing to do so should buy lossless media in the first place.

@Blutarsky: From your post and replies to what others told you, it is clear that you don't know several things about MP3, (and several others about iTunes Store).
First, that MP4/AAC (which is what iTunes Store has always used) is not the same as MP3. (Second post in this thread already explains it). Second, that you don't know how to judge quality in terms of lossy codecs. And third, you don't know the limitations of the MP3 codec, and how LAME has been tweaked these last years to increase in sound quality, while not caring about "visual" quality. See your posted graph: - The differences in background from 16Khz above are at -95dBFS and below. - The filter in MP3 is at 19Khz and in AAC at 21Khz. Said that, filtered sounds are around -70dbFS and below. - Peaks on that sound are at -30dbFS or so. LAME: - MP3 has a limitation at 16Khz and above that can cause to use many bits to keep precision, reducing the amount free for the rest of the sound (which is not desiderable). As such, LAME limits the precision in these bands. That's why you see the clear 16Khz background cut. - Also, higher frequencies are always more difficult to encode, because they are not tonal (easy to describe), but noise-like (difficult to describe). Using the filter around 20Khz (which most CD audio players were supposed to do anyway) is just another way to reduce the bits spent on frequencies that the human ear doesn't hear (most of the time), to spend them on the rest of the bands. As such, from those spectograms, one cannot say that the MP3 one is of less quality in terms of lossy codecs. One can only say that they use a different strategy, which in the case of AAC/MP4 can do so because it does not have those MP3 limitations. |

It strikes me that perceptual noise substitution is A Good Thing In That It Keeps Users From Judging Sound With Their Eyes.

Sando: Rams Free-Agency Assessment
St. Louis Rams
Key additions: CB Cortland Finnegan, C Scott Wells, DT Kendall Langford, WR Steve Smith
Key losses: WR Brandon Lloyd, P Donnie Jones, OLB Chris Chamberlain
Sando's grade so far: B. The Rams would get a higher grade for their offseason in general, but this item focuses on free agency. That excludes from consideration Jeff Fisher's hiring as head coach, and general manager Les Snead's ability to maximize value for the second overall pick in the draft. The Finnegan and Wells signings give the Rams welcome leadership while upgrading important positions. Langford should help the run defense.
The Rams have yet to address their playmaking deficiencies. They did not land any of the high-profile wide receivers in free agency. There's a chance Smith will recapture old form in his second season back from microfracture knee surgery, but the Rams are not counting on that. They will almost certainly emerge from free agency without even marginally upgrading the weaponry for quarterback Sam Bradford. That is a disappointment.
Whats next: The outlook remains bright for St. Louis. The team owns the sixth, 33rd and 39th choices in the 2012 draft, plus two first-rounders in each of the following two drafts. There will be time and opportunity for the Rams to add the offensive firepower they need so badly, perhaps with Oklahoma State receiver Justin Blackmon or Alabama running back Trent Richardson at No. 6 overall.
Much work lies ahead. The Rams emerged from this week with eight fewer players on their roster than the average for the other 31 teams. Using free agency to address holes at outside linebacker and left guard would provide flexibility heading into the draft. The Rams still need a backup quarterback as well. Bradford is the only QB on the roster. It's looking like the team is serious about bringing back right tackle Jason Smith despite injury concerns and a fat contract that will presumably require adjustment.

Re: Sando: Rams Free-Agency Assessment
Even the best RT in the NFL makes a lot less than Smith. Eric Winston who was a pro bowl RT for the Texans got released because he was going to make $5 million... Smith is making $10 million, and he sucks. The only way he should make that is if he's a franchise LT, franchise QB, franchise DE, or a franchise CB. Smith should get his contract re-structured IMMEDIATELY because we only have 4 million in cap left.
-03-31-2012 #4
Re: Sando: Rams Free-Agency Assessment
I think we will only re-structure his contact if we're going to keep him and that isn't certain yet. I suspect the picture will get clear after the draft depending on whom we draft for the O-Line. Remember there is still a chance Smith is moved inside to left guard.
Go Rams!

Influence of travel speed on spray deposition uniformity from an air-assisted variable-rate sprayer. In: Proceedings of the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers Annual Meeting, July 21-24, 2013, Kansas City, Missouri. ASABE Paper No. 131594610.http://dx.doi.org/10.13031/aim.20131594610. Technical Abstract: A newly developed LiDAR-guided air-assisted variable-rate sprayer for nursery and orchard applications was tested at various travel speeds to compare its spray deposition and coverage uniformity with constant-rate applications. Spray samplers, including nylon screens and water-sensitive papers (WSP), were mounted inside tree canopies to measure spray deposits and coverage. Experiments were conducted with six different size tree species in commercial nurseries and travel speeds ranged from 3.2 to 8.0 km h-1. Test results showed that variable-rate sprayer was able to adjust spray outputs to match canopy structures and travel speeds. For the variable-rate application, there were no significant variations in spray deposits and coverage for each tree species among the travel speeds of 3.2, 5.6 and 8.0 km h-1. The variable-rate application had significantly lower variations in spray deposits within canopies of different size trees than the constant spray application. |

The Dynasty Warriors games are available on the:PS3PS2PSPXbox360XboxPCNintendo DSNintendo GBAI like the Dynasty Warriors games. Especially number 4-6. that's when they were the best in my opinion. They added all new weapons, characters, missions, challenges, ,options, etc... In number 4 it was the only game I would really play. It didn't have the best graphics or options. But when it came out it was the only game I would play. In number 5 it was better. More characters, missions, options, improved graphics. With number 6. I spent the most time on that one. Though the story for each character was shorter. It was good. Number 6 has the best graphics though. I liked that. And the cut-scenes were better. I did like how the missions were different for every single person. In 4 & 5 they are mostly the same. But 6 changed it. Except for a few things. Like how they changed most characters clothing and weapons. The one person that didn't need that is Xiahou Dun. I don't mind the clothing but his weapon changed from a kirin fang to a giant slow club thing. Dian Wei's weapon changed from an axe to a ball on a chain. It was really slow and hard to fight with. Dynasty Warriors is set in ancient China during the time of the 3 kingdoms era. The places were supposedly recreations of the ancient battles. Their are 3 main factions you could choose from:WeiWuShuFor Wei I thought they were just power hungry animals. In the story it looked that way to me. The person in charge Cao Cao would just invade everywhere and didn't care who he killed or betrayed. For Wu they were just neutral. Not really bad or good. They would friend everyone then when the time was right they would strike and take people down. Couldn't really trust them. For Shu though. They were the most noble and virtuous. They started off small. With only Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. But they grew when people noticed how good and helpful they were to the poor. Dynasty Warriors 4Dynaty Warriors 5Dynasty Warriors 6I also liked Dynasty Warriors Empires 4,5 & 6.Those games were just like before. Except it's a giant map then you choose your army and lieutenants, commanders, etc..And after you choose all that stuff you would choose what places to invade. You can also make alliances with other people. And if they get invaded then you can choose to send some troops in there and help them or just sit idly by and watch them get destroyed without helping them. Dynasty Warriors 6: EmpiresDynasty Warriors 5: EmpiresDynasty Warriors 4: EmpiresWith Dynasty Warriors: Strikeforce though. I think Koei ruined it. That game was just a huge letdown. They added some new stupid things to the game: Triple jumping, something when you gain enough kills or whatever you would turn into something that looked like a super saiyan mode, flying in the air, new fighting style, new maps, new opponents. With each one of those Koei just ruined it. The flying was unnecessary. That just made it look plain out fake. With the new opponents I mean by animals. They added giant animals for you to fight against. That just made the game look retarded. With Dynasty Warriors 7. I hope they fix all these unnecessary features and make it how it was in 6 but a few changes.

I stopped playing console games for a while now. I had played metal gear solid 4 (ps3) all the way through did everything there was to do (unlocked big boss mask etc) it was a challenge and thats what I like in a game. So for best game idk maybe best challenge would be metal gear solid 4. And if you've stuck with metal gear since day 1 and love the story you'll love it for what it is -- the total hours of cutscences is something like 8 hours!!! (can skip if you want lol)

After starting at St. Mike's as a student in 1967, I majored in political science, graduated in 1971 and came to work here in 1973 once I'd completed a nearby graduate program in higher education. So I was assistant dean of students by age 24 and soon after I was invited by President Ed Henry to lead admissions, and that's where I've been since.
When I began looking at colleges as a high school senior in Attleboro, MA, my guidance counselor, a nun, gave me a list of schools to send to for catalogs and one was Saint Michael's. Admissions were a lot different then. My senior year of college I met my wife, Judy, who was at Trinity. In those days I also was captain on the club football team and later I coached football here. I still invite a group of my classmates, many from our old team, to Colchester for an annual ritual: We take in a basketball game and socialize for a weekend and it's always a great time.
I've been blessed by the opportunity to stay in a place that's really a part of who I am. I've looked at other opportunities through the years but it always came down to asking, "Do I believe in the mission of this place, can I be as passionate about what they're doing as I am here?" Because it would be hard to do this work if I didn't feel the way that I do about Saint Michael's. I think what has really kept me here is just the privilege to be a member of this community. I love the people I work with.
Several of my admissions initiatives are now signature Saint Michael's programs, I'm happy to say, including the Book Award and Nominate a Knight programs. I've also had leadership roles with regional and national associations for admissions professionals, and I've probably visited every high school in New England. We just had a handful of people in this office when I started but as the landscape has become more competitive we've added to the team and had a great core group through the years. I plan to help out with fund-raising for the college in January of 2014.
I have two favorite days of the year in my job - first, when new students arrive and I greet them and they're nervous - so are the parents - but I can reassure them. And then graduation day, when I try to sit in the front row and watch the students go by and see the success they've had - invariably there's a few I took a chance on with special considerations, and they didn't let me down - so I can share vicariously just a little bit of the pride that their parents have as they watch their son or daughter graduate. To me, that's the greatest thing you can do - just watch them and say, "Way to go."
I've developed and maintained close personal friendships with the Edmundite priests at St. Mike's, and they've been an important part of my family's life. For me, it's always been family first, and I consider the college to be part of my family. That's actually literally true since my younger brother and sister followed me to Saint Michael's, and four of my five children are alumni! To watch the wonderful experience my youngest daughter just had here was tremendous. It made me proud to be a member of this community and an alumnus, and convinced me this is a place worth sustaining and growing.

Portrayed by | Sarayu Rao
Lalita Gupta is Rajesh Koothrappali's childhood friend. Her only appearance was in Season 1's The Grasshopper Experiment. She went on a date with Raj, but it went terribly as a drunk Raj was obnoxious. She eventually ditched Rah for Sheldon, who thought she looked like a beautiful princess from a children story. At the end of the night, they departed (because Sheldon already had a dentist) and she was never heard from again.
Lalita is someone who is in her mid-twenties and grew up in the same neighborhood as Raj. As a child, she used to bully Raj by kicking him in the groins, or "samosas" as according to Raj and calling him "untouchable". However, as adults, it turned out that their parents had arranged their marriage, the main reason being Raj's mother thought that he should be married at his age and that she and his father wanted grandchildren. As it turned out, just like Raj, she is also in America, to be a dental student at the University of Southern California. Raj detested this as he remembered clearly his experience being bullied by her, calling her pushy. She is also known as "Little Lalita", and her father plays golf alongside Raj's father.Appearance
She used to be fat as a kid but has slimmed down and became attractive as an adult. Sheldon felt that she resembled Princess Panchali from the children's story The Monkey and The Princess, which his mother read to him as a kid whenever he got sick.

Posted by Rob McGarr, 08 June 2011
Christine Teigen or, as she's known to her pals, Chrissy Teigen, is an American model of Thai-Norwegian ancestry. When she's not appearing in Victoria's Secret lingerie or the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, she hangs out with her boyfriend John Legend (you know, that "we're just ordinary people" bloke).
It was Chrissy's good pal Brooklyn Decker that introduced her to the good folk at Sports Illustrated. Bloody hell, being mates with Brooklyn Decker sounds fairly alright, doesn't it? Not only can you have sleepovers with the customary pillow fights and marshmallow wrestles, she can get you tickets to Wimbledon courtesy of her husband Andy 'A-Rod' Roddick, and she'll bag you a job modeling swimsuits.
We always thought paradise would contain more marshmallows
When we learnt this, we couldn't help looking at our nearby pals with disdainful dissatisfaction. When we go to their houses, we're lucky to get a one-foot strip of bed and a streaky bacon on stale bread sarnie in the morning. The closest they have to 'contacts' at Wimbledon is that girl they pulled once who claimed to have previously been a ball girl but looked more likely to be seen hanging out with Great Uncle Bulgaria and co on the Common than scurrying around fetching balls on Centre Court. And we'd rather not talk about the only time they managed to secure us a job modeling swimsuits. Ever again. Suffice to say, it was cold, alright?
Anyway, Chrissy Teigen went to a place called Cove Atlantis recently for this photo shoot for Vegas Magazine.
Good job we've got our Junior Lifesaver Award
Here's what happened:
0.04: Nice palm tree, that. Looks pretty stable.
0.13: Chrissy Teigen's trying to push over that palm tree. The silly sausage, doesn't she realize how sturdy it looks?
0.17: Right, Chrissy Teigen is hanging off a giant spoon like a rogue anthropomorphic cornflake. FINE.
0.39: She's still trying to force that tree over. What is her problem with it, anyway? It's not budging.
0.41: Just give it a rest will you, Chris? What's that poor tree ever done to you?
0.43: Finally, some remorse. That's it, you lie there in the sand and think about what you've done.
0.53: She's still got her eye on that tree, hasn't she?
1.05: Is she trying to push over that building now? Got to admire her determination, haven't you?
1.12: Aww, let's all just hug and make up.
1.13: "If I stay like this long enough, one of those seagulls is bound to land on my back. Then I'll eat him."
1.22: "I reckon we can squeeze another film out of this Pirates of the Caribbean franchise.
1.27: All that tree-pushing really tires a girl out, it would seem.
Sunrise and no towels on the sunbeds? Unlikely
Let FHM help you organise a killer stag do! With helpful ideas, tips and all the latest activities, the ultimate stag weekend starts right here..."

We're going to the world in August on DDP. We have a pool/DTD day planned. We were planning to have dinner at T-Rex but couldn't get ADRs. After reading here I probably could if I call them directly but now I'm not sure it's our best choice. We are Mom, Dad, and 15 year old boy girl twins... Where would you go? The only two we'd rather avoid are Planet Hollywood and Rainforest Cafe.
If your looking for Counter Service, I would go with Earl of Sandwich or Wolfgang Puck Express. The sandwiches at Earl of Sandwich are really good. If you want to go Table Service, I've heard good things about Raglan Road and Bongo's.
Our favorite at DTD is Raglan Road! The scallop appetizer is amazing, and the bread pudding for dessert is very good. We all had entrees we loved too. We can't wait to go back in June.
If you want T-Rex, and you've only tried through Disney's reservation system, call them directly. This is a huge restaurant with lots of tables, but they don't offer very many tables for reservation through Disney. If you call directly, you will probably be able to get any date and time you want. If you've decided against T-Rex, I like Raglan Road. All the others are on my "eh, maybe" list and I haven't tried Splitsville but my friends who have tried it seem to like it.
I would try either Raglan Road or TRex. Both are great! Terrific atmosphere and delish food. Cant go wrong with either. Raglan Road has Irish dancers at dinner. Thats pretty neat to see. For CS, unless your absolutely dying to have a sandwich for dinner (@EoS), I would recommend Wolfgang Puck Express instead. Its my fave places to eat @ DTD. The food is simply amazing. Its always the highlight meal of our trip! The bacon wrapped meatloaf & mashed potatoes is PURE heaven....and the spagetti with meatballs was the best i've ever had. And dont even get me started on the vanilla cheesecake with the creme brulee-like topping. OMG. So delish!
For TS, I can heartily recommend Raglan Road, we've always had amazing meals there! If you go later in the evening, you can catch the entertainment (Irish band and step dancers), which is always fun. I've also heard that Splitsville is pretty good, with a wide selection. For CS, I absolutely recommend Wolfgang Puck Express in the Marketplace (there's one on the West Side, but it's limited to soups, sandwiches, pizza, salads and sushi). I LOVE the roasted salmon entree, it's delish! We've also enjoyed the mac and cheese, spaghetti bolognese, cavatappe chicken alfredo, along with many of the pizzas, salads and sandwiches. We love that place and it's a great deal on the dining plan!
I'm going to go with Raglan Road or Splitsville. Both have fun atmospheres and your teens might appreciate it more than T-Rex.
Our 16 year old boys love Ragland, the food is very well prepared with a vast menu! The table top and stage dancing is also great fun! We also enjoy the House of Blues, the food is good (especially the fried chicken and short ribs) and on Thursday/Friday nights ( I think) they have band performances! We also enjoy T-Rex and find the food better than at Rainforest, even if they are part of the same company/chain! On our waterpark days, the last 2 times we've combined dinner and a movie at the dine in theater at DTD. We love going to the movies and having a tasty dinner and a glass of wine or cocktail as you watch it, it's a great way to spend an evening!
If you would like to avoid Rainforest, I would stay away from TRex too. They are essentially the same menus with different decor. We LOVE WP Express, it's a must for each visit. If you want TS, then Raglan Road.
Have t-rex and raglan road always been DDP!? I always thought they weren't... that's good to know if they are!
Thanks so much everyone!!! I need to have my family look over the menu at Raglan Road but it certainly sounds like a great place.
Another vote for Raglan Road. We love the food, the atmosphere and the service. The band is great and the Irish Step Dancers are outstanding. I think your family would enjoy it.
We are trying Ragland Road for the first time this May. But if for some reason you decide against it - I highly suggest Wolfgang Puck Express. It is a CS credit on the Dining Plan and without a doubt the absolute best value. The food is fantastic and the portions are huge- better than many TS credits. We have had many meals there and have yet to find something that was not delicious.
Reviewed everything with the fam and decided to stick with Raglan Road! I'm excited! Thanks for all the recommendations. To the poster above me, we did WGPE during our last trip and loved it, what we didn't love was trying to find a seat. I would definitely eat there again but would rather do it off standard meal hours. Thanks so much for the suggestion.. I might sneak in that suggestion and see if anyone is interested in switching and adding a signature dining...
For whatever reason you want to avoid RFC, you should probably skip Trex. While we love them both if you don't like one you probably won't like the other. Paradiso is one of our fav places. Lots of variety, if you have a picky eater like me, you can get things plain or sauce on the side. We have been to RR for lunch and it was good!
If you like WPE try the WP cafe. Not nearly as "fancy" as the dining room but still a traditional table service. Great food and drinks!

Change Is Good
An off day following a successful 4-2 road trip calls for a little more analysis of the Royals resurgent offense.
The improvement over the last month of the season has been nothing short of amazing:
Date | AVG | OBP | SLG | W-L |
First 33 Games | .232 | .290 | .372 | 8-25 |
Last 29 Games | .290 | .356 | .436 | 13-16 |
But why?
When Tony Pena quit on this team, something changed. Something other than the tangible statistical improvement noted above. The team changed it's approach to the game. Gone were the days of "working the count" where hitters would look at a great pitch for strike one and spend the rest of the at bat battling from behind in the count.
When the Royals dismissed hitting coach Jeff Pentland in late May, they were acknowledging a total shift in approach that had begun under interm manager Bob Schaefer was necessary to prevent this team from sliding into the depths of a 120 loss season. It's too early to tell what impact new batting instructor Andre David will bring, but it seems safe to say his instruction will fit the new organizational philosophy of "selective aggressiveness."
For the Royals, the current success lies in this new approach. Plate discipline doesn't mean looking at two strikes and then deciding to swing the bat. Plate discipline is about waiting for a good pitch…your pitch, and then putting the ball in play.
The results of this new approach at the plate are becoming clear. Numbers are up almost across the board. As a team, the Royals have gone from scoring 3.5 R/G to almost 4.5 R/G. Even though they are swinging at more pitches, they are drawing more walks, while putting more balls into play.
And most importantly, it's translating into wins. The Royals won eight games the first month and a half of the season. They've won that many in the last two weeks.
Yes, things are looking up in K.C. Let's go down the batting order to see exactly how the Royals are doing it:
Date | AVG | OBP | SLG |
4/4 - 5/10 | .230 | .271 | .341 |
5/11 - 6/13 | .266 | .305 | .395 |
Berroa is one of the few Royals who have only seen modest improvement over the last month.
Currently, Berroa is horribly miscast as a leadoff man, a point documented on this website. If you break the numbers down even further, in the 12 games since Buddy Bell took over this team at the first of the month, the only Royal getting on base less than Angel Berroa is Mike Sweeney.
Getting Berroa out of the leadoff spot is becoming the WTP cause celebre for the last month of the season.
Date | AVG | OBP | SLG |
4/4 - 5/10 | .262 | .323 | .377 |
5/11 - 6/13 | .309 | .387 | .433 |
David is not Carlos Beltran. It seems the Royals have finally gotten the message.
Immediately slotted into the number two spot in the lineup after Pena quit, DeJesus is quietly regaining the flashes of brilliance he displayed his rookie season when he went .287/.360/.402. It is much to the relief of WTP that DeJesus has finally stopped being asked to steal bases. He might have above average speed, but his base stealing instincts are terrible. He's only attempted one steal since May 11 (he was thrown out of course.)
But the time is right to move him back into the leadoff spot. He has the ability to get on base and seems to have rediscovered what it took for him to be so successful in 2004. That and he's a much better option than Berroa.
Date | AVG | OBP | SLG |
4/4 - 5/10 | .333 | .380 | .628 |
5/11 - 6/13 | .241 | .259 | .304 |
The only Royal regular to have regressed over the last month. Is it coincidence that this is the exact time when he began missing games due to injury? He's missed 10 of the last 29 ballgames with the mysterious "strained oblique" that was apparently reinjured while taking extra batting practice in San Francisco. I'm not buying that. I hope I'm wrong, but I don't think he was fully recovered from when he initially hurt himself in mid-May.
It is somewhat comforting to know the Royals' best stretches of baseball have come with their captain sidelined. If he's ever healthy enough where the Royals are able to flip him for a couple of prospects, you would get no argument here.
Date | AVG | OBP | SLG |
4/4 - 5/10 | .208 | .305 | .361 |
5/11 - 6/13 | .330 | .392 | .557 |
Given the everyday job in RF, Brown's turnaround is nothing short of stunning. Comparisons are being drawn to another Allard Baird reclamation project: Raul Ibanez. While we caution jumping the gun a bit with any kind of exuberant comparison, it is a pleasant sight to see a corner outfielder produce these types of numbers.
Speaking of corner outfielders…
Date | AVG | OBP | SLG |
4/4 - 5/10 | .200 | .236 | .306 |
5/11 - 6/13 | .329 | .373 | .447 |
If he continues playing like this the Royals might actually be able to get something of value for him at the trading deadline.
Date | AVG | OBP | SLG |
4/4 - 5/10 | .247 | .345 | .466 |
5/11 - 6/13 | .290 | .476 | .532 |
The man we will give credit to for starting the Royals offensive renaissance. He went on a base on balls tear immediately after Pena quit, walking 12 times in six games, scoring nine runs in the process.
Stairs led by example, and his teammates took notice. Since May 10th the Royals have bumped their walk rate from 2.5 BB/G to 2.9 BB/G. It's not a coincidence that the Royals have been scoring more runs since that time.
Date | AVG | OBP | SLG |
4/4 - 5/10 | .163 | .209 | .256 |
5/11 - 6/13 | .319 | .368 | .507 |
Another amazing turnaround. These slow starts are killing him.
The fact that he's an above average defensive catcher helps his cause tremendously. The guy is a leader, who you can tell has the respect of his teammates, most importantly the pitching staff.
Date | AVG | OBP | SLG |
4/4 - 5/10 | .250 | .325 | .361 |
5/11 - 6/13 | .265 | .294 | .388 |
Teahen is included here as part of the lineup, but due to an injury the first month of the season, gets an incomplete.
He's started to come alive since Bell took over as manager, posting a .326/.356/.395 line over the last 12 games. Teahen has been very solid defensively while looking more and more comfortable at the plate. Expect him to continue to improve as the season progresses.
Date | AVG | OBP | SLG |
4/4 - 5/10 | .200 | .235 | .289 |
5/11 - 6/13 | .315 | .407 | .534 |
Gotay, who is supposed to be better with the bat than with the glove was roundly awful in all aspects of the game the first month and a half of the season. Despite his improvement, he's still in and out of the lineup too much to get totally comfortable. Much of that has to do with the fact no Royal is getting on base more than Tony Graffanino (.438/.471/.547) over the last month. It's difficult to sit a guy who's playing like that, but Graff is the ultimate utility guy. If Sweeney is still hurt when the Royals return home, look for him and Stairs to trade off between 1B and DH.
If you made it this far, thank you. The point is not to bore with statistics, but to illustrate how almost every player on this team has improved since Pena quit. In this case the numbers don't lie. The Royals are a better team today than they were a month ago.
We are seeing the tangible results from a change in philosophy. Batters have gone to the plate with an aggressive, not a reckless, attitude. That means more runs, which means more wins.
Are the Royals as good as their numbers over the last 29 games indicate? No.
Are the Royals as bad as their numbers over the first 33 games indicate? No.
The answer to that question probably lies somewhere in between. But this last month has been a helluva ride for Royals fans. WTP is going to enjoy it while it lasts.

Here is my Aprilia RS50 which I am selling due to getting a car. As you can tell from the title this bike has many modifications and is one of the fastest 50's on the market.
The bike was bought for £1600 with all parts already fitted and run in correctly. The parts include:
- Malossi 80 Bore Kit
- Malossi 21mm Carb
- TNT Air Filter
- MetraKit Full Race Pipe
- Polini Race Clutch
- Malossi Cintered Brake Pads (Front/Back)
- Unlimited CDI
- Iridium Spark Plug
With all these parts fitted, it makes it extremely fast and secure at the same time. Overall, the modifications come to an estimate cost of around £700. The bike will easily reach 60-70mph in no time at all with the top speed I have reached is 81mph down hill which is very fast for a 50cc. I have fitted a new battery and spark plug so they wont need replacing for a long time. The bike also starts first time off the electric start and also off the choke in cold conditions. The bike has to be warmed up thoroughly before riding.
I wish I was able to say that everything was fine with the bike however, I cant. I came off the bike in very wet conditions which caused significant cosmetic damage (nothing wrong with the running of the bike). Although crashing, it does still handle very well. I did manage to replace the fuel tank and back panel which were both serverly dented so that is no issue however, both the right and left fairings are both cracked. The left being the worse of the two as its the side I came off. As well as the fairings, the left handlebar was also damaged, but again, I was able to replace it. When replacing the battery and fuel tank, the milage did also change and jump up to over 147,000 miles but I can promise you this bike has not done that many miles, not even close.
Below are web links to the parts needed/advised for this bike and I have worked out that to fix the bike will cost an estimate of around £500:
- http://www.ultimateparts.net/aprilia/c.php?n=Controls-Aprilia-RS-50-2006-Aprilia-Parts-and-Spares-Genuine-OEM&i=17758
- http://www.ultimateparts.net/aprilia/a.php?n=86142400WN1-LH-side-panel-upper,-black-Central-body-Aprilia-RS-50-2006-Aprilia-Parts-and-Spares-Genuine-OEM&i=351083
- http://www.ultimateparts.net/aprilia/a.php?n=86142300WN1-RH-side-panel-upper,-black-Central-body-Aprilia-RS-50-2006-Aprilia-Parts-and-Spares-Genuine-OEM&i=351080
- http://www.ultimateparts.net/aprilia/c.php?n=Electrical-system-Aprilia-RS-50-2006-Aprilia-Parts-and-Spares-Genuine-OEM&i=17765 (LH front indicator)
Some of the electrics are also not working. I have managed to fix most of them however, the left side indicators still do not work. This should only be a small problem and nothing major which can be easily sorted. The brake pads may also need replacing soon as they are starting to sqeek but still work perfectly fine at the moment. MOT needed! TAX needed!
I am willing to listen to offers and possibly go lower with my asking price but please don't give stupid offers and wast time. Overall, this bike is great for a first bike and again, one of the fastest on the road. If you are willing to put money into this bike as possibly a project then this is the bike for you!! It is unfortunate that I crashed it but there is obviously nothing I can do now.
Please feel free to email or text me with any questions and queries you may have.

I guess I'm a victim of the remaining 1% of bugs in the Amiga sbic.c driver after the last big change just before -1.1. Note that there is another report (although not as a formal PR to us) from firstname.lastname@example.com (Neil Brewitt). He tried to use a MUSTEK 6000 with an A3000. His scenario is a bit different: The machine survives the auto-configure period, then any process trying to talk to the Mustek hangs in "disk wait" (D). >How-To-Repeat: Connect HP Scanjet to built-in SCSI interface; reboot. >Fix: Fix: not known.

Byrdie knows the secret to staying alive at 105
Byrdie Schoewe marked 105 years of life on Aug. 26.
Schoewe (pronounced "shavey") has resided in Emeritus at Federal Way, a care facility, for the past seven years.
What's her secret to longevity?
"I came from a line of long-lived people. And I behaved myself," she said, holding a card signed by staff and residents at Emeritus.
Born in 1906, she is the sixth of 13 children and the last one living. Schoewe's 10 sisters and two brothers all lived well into their 80s and 90s, with one sister reaching 100.
In 1976, she settled in Federal Way with her husband of 62 years, Karl, who died in 1987.
She worked as a homemaker and also manned weather stations for air mail delivery. Schoewe has two children, four grandchildren, four great-grandchildren and four great-great-grandchildren.

The lightweight Viking LT 2x24 includes a built-in IR unit for added clarity and is useful for numerous applications.
Yukon Advanced Optics' engineers kept versatility and comfort in mind when creating the Viking series of night vision binoculars. Each of the Viking series of night vision binoculars are similar yet different.
The Viking LT 2x24 night vision binocular has a magnification of 2x and an objective lens of 24mm. The unit's eye relief of 12 mm allows for comfortable viewing while the 400 m range of detection makes this unit perfect for long distance viewing.
The Viking LT 2x24 provides clear viewing in total darkness by utilizing a single built-in IR illuminator with a range of 150 m. Throw the ergonomically-designed, rubberized body around your neck for a long expedition; the lightweight (21 oz.), compact (6.9 x 4.8 x 2.8 in.) unit is surprisingly comfortable, making your viewing experience that much more enjoyable. Like all Viking models, the LT utilizes Yukon's newly designed Eclipse lens cap system, which removes lens cap hassles, dual eye diopter adjustment with central focusing, and a wide field of view (30 degrees).
All image intensifier tubes are extremely light sensitive and can be destroyed by bright lights; however the Viking LT 2x24 remedies this problem by including Yukon's exclusive Eclipse lens cap system. These lens caps include a pinhole to protect the unit from bright light, but still allow the user the option of daytime use.
The Viking makes use of a built-in PULSE infrared illuminator for added image clarity in total darkness. The PULSE system utilizes quick infrared energy bursts that pierce the darkness further to increase distance, visibility and image quality. The PULSE IR System provides the highest level of infrared illumination without significant battery drainage. The same "pulsing" frequency that is invisible to human eyes infiltrates longer distances due to the Infrared Illuminator's quick energy bursts. User supplied CR123A battery required.

Elva Hsiao
Elva Hsiao | |
Hsiao at a fundraising event after the 2014 Kaohsiung gas explosions
Birth name | Hsiao Ya-Hsuan (蕭亞軒) |
Born | Zhongli City, Taoyuan County (now Zhongli District, Taoyuan City), Republic of China |
August 24, 1979
Occupation | Singer |
Genre(s) | Mandopop |
Label(s) | Sony Music Entertainment |
Elva Hsiao (Chinese: 蕭亞軒, Japanese: エルバ・シャオ, Hangul: 소아헌, born August 24, 1979) is a Taiwanese Mandopop singer.
She was educated at John Casablanca's College in Vancouver, British Columbia. She is fluent in both written and spoken English. While in Vancouver, she attended the New Talent Singing Awards Vancouver Audition in 1998 with her birth name of Hsiao Ya-Chih (蕭雅之). She became one of the 12 finalists but did not place in the top 5. She sang CoCo Lee's "Love Me A Little Longer (Chinese: 愛我久一點)". In that competition there were 3 other Taiwanese recent singers, 183 Club member Jacky Chu (祝釩剛), who was the winner, DJ Ruby Lu (盧春如), 1st Runner-Up and Michelle*Vickie (蜜雪薇琪) member Michelle Hsu (now known as Mimi or Michelle). In 2010, she admitted to receiving double eyelid surgery at a media event, after years of speculation from netizens.[1]
Love Life[edit]
Kai, and Elva's May-December romance was revealed when they were caught dating at a park in 2012. However it was announced that Elva Hsiao ended the romance in June 2014. Elva Hsiao stated that 'everything ends here'. Rumors says that their 12-year age gap could be a barrier for the couple.[2]
Music career[edit]
Elva was originally signed to Virgin Records Taiwan, a sub-label of EMI, which created the Chinese stage name (蕭亞軒) for her. Her self-titled début album in 1999 sold over 1 million copies in Asia and cemented her status in the Chinese music industry.[3]
In 2001, Elva won the award for Best Selling Chinese Artist at the 2001 World Music Awards held in Monaco on 2 May.[4]
In 2002, Elva recorded the song "U Make Me Wanna" with British boy band Blue, which appeared on her album Love's Theme Song, Kiss. Virgin Records and Elva parted ways in the summer of 2004.
For a year, Elva rested as record companies fought over her next contract. It ended up becoming a battle between Warner Music Taiwan and Sony BMG, with Warner Music winning the battle in the end. Elva signed into Warner Music on 23 March 2005, making her Warner Taiwan's "fifth diva" (after Sammi Cheng, A-Mei Chang, Na Ying, and Stefanie Sun).[5] Fans were overjoyed at this, and waited for the coming of a new album, which Warner had promised would be released in June 2005.
However, Warner Music Taiwan was facing internal issues during this period, including executives resigning and a change of staff members. Many other Warner artists (including Stefanie Sun, Machi, A-Mei, and F.I.R.) were affected and did not see much promotion on their albums. However, none faced as much trouble as Elva, whose album was delayed from September till December and eventually Warner announced that the album would be delayed indefinitely. This angered the fans, who had been waiting patiently. Their protests spammed the forums of Warner Music Taiwan, causing the entire website to be out of service for a week.
In February 2006, a Warner representative promised in an interview that the album would be released around late March/early April. It was only a few weeks later that magazine articles reported another change of staff members and the possibilities of the album being delayed into late April/early May. In June 2006, she released a new single, entitled "The World I Want" [我要的世界].
In October 2006, the delayed album still had not been released, although Elva announced that it would be released in December. At that time she was in Los Angeles working on dance choreography. In addition, she released another new promotion single entitled "Elva Is Back", a fast catchy song featuring electro beats and raps. A dance song "Confession"(表白) made the top 10. Elva and Warner Music announced in November that her newest album would be released on 22 December. The album is called 1087, signifying the number of days Elva had been absent from the Mandopop scene.
She released the music video for her single called "Confession" in mid-2007. Her next singles were "L.o.V.E", "Not Far Away", "The Ambassador", "Honey Honey Honey", and "My Boyfriend".
Back to EMI[edit]
After the contract with Warner Music, Elva decided to switch back to EMI Virgin Records in 2008. She described the switch as "going back home" as she was among the first few artists signed by Virgin Music Chinese in 1999 when the division was first established.[6] Some critics also commented Elva was avoiding the back of Warner's original General Manager Sam Chen who has a bad name in Chinese music industry in controlling and creating fake statistics for his artists. The rumoured contract cost EMI over NT$250 million which is over HKD 60 million or about USD 8 million. Johanna Wang, President of EMI Music Taiwan commented that the action of signing Elva was proving they (EMI) are not going to quit the Chinese music scene. Instead, they would create a new entertainment empire spanning over film productions, artist management, concert production, publishing and both digital and traditional music industries.
Elva's first album back with EMI,三面夏娃, was originally set to be released in late May 2008. But due to the delay in production and of China's approval due to the Olympic Games[citation needed], the album was pushed back and released on 13 June 2008.[7]
Elva switched her record company to Gold Typhoon after Gold Label Record's acquisition of EMI Music Taiwan in August 2008.
Film and other media work[edit]
In Taiwan, she has done television commercials for a wide diversity of products, ranging from mobile phones to jewellery to makeup, for major brands such as Avon, De Beers, Motorola, Pantene, and Sprite. She has had film roles in two movies: Infernal Affairs (2002) and The Butterfly Lovers (2004). She is no longer participating in Fresh Tomato for Sauce (Announced 2007). However, she is currently in talks to play a role in the TV series Less Than Zero, a retake on Bret Easton Ellis' famous novel that will be set in Taipei. She will play the role of Julie Chang, a UCLA business major interning in Taipei with Smith Barney.
By joining EMI Virgin Records, the EMI's Gold Label Records which is seen as an inter-industrial agency is starting to find scripts and tailor-made roles for Elva as she plans to have more participation in movies under EMI, as part of changes to the strategic plans of EMI in the Asia-Pacific market. She will have a role in an upcoming TV series called 大江大海一九四九, which seeks to chronicle the material covered in Lung Ying-tai's novel of the same name (which chronicles the Chinese Civil War).
The first cross-media work is the co-partnership with Puma which Elva would become the spokesperson of Puma and Puma would buy media place including TVCs, print ads, billboards for the label and Elva's album. Puma would also sponsor Elva's music video "I'll Be There".

This year's Open Video Conference will include Eyebeam Fellows Jon Cohrs, Jacob Ciocci, and Jeff Crouse presenting some of their most recent projects that work with open culture and video, as well as a brief overview of Eyebeam's history of supporting open culture research by Production Coordinator Roddy Schrock. Following presentations, the floor will be opened to a critical discussion on ideas of sharing/remixing in current video practice and the wider culture.
Eyebeam Presentations and Discussion Saturday October 2, from 4:45 to 5:30 at Open Video Conference (in the amphitheater), Fashion Institute of Technology, 7th Ave. at 27th.
Our most recent Fall Residents and Fellows have finished their vacations and are hard at work: Aram Bartholl, from Berlin, is preparing his Point of Vision project to engage the public at Eyebeam in late October. Stefani Bardin is in the house working on The Omnivore's Pleasure and other projects already begun through a collaborative residency with our farming partner upstate, Andes Sprout Society.
Eyebeam resident Hernani Dias will be presenting part of his re:farm project tonight at the Farm City Opening, 6 - 8 PM. Come check it out!
OLD STONE HOUSE, 2nd FLOOR GALLERY AND WASHINGTON PARK
336 Third Street (Inside the Park!)
Our newly arrived Summer Residents and Fellows are hard at work: Hernani Dias is planning public workshops for urban/mobile farming with Andes Sprouts Society for his re:farm the city project. Jon Cohrs is in the house working on his plant prosthetic appendages, creating life support systems for plants. And Mark Shepard is completing the Eyebeam portion of his Sentient City Survival Kit project, ready to take it to Rotterdam where he'll finish production at V2_ as part of the inaugural joint Eyebeam/V2_ residency. And finally, Drew Hemment, founder and Artistic Director of FutureEverything, will work with us starting this week in his position as an Honorary Resident.
We have a very exciting group of artists that will be working with us this summer! Hernani Dias will be joining us and connecting with Andes Sprouts Society upstate to make mobile farms, mobile composters, and mobile greenhouses, bringing his re:farm the city project to New York. Jon Cohrs will be coming on as a fellow, beginning work on a series of projects including his new plant prosthetic appendages project, creating life support systems for plants. And in the inaugural joint Eyebeam/V2 (Rotterdam) residency, Mark Shepard will be joining us starting this month, then completing the production of The Sentient City Survival Kit at V2's Test Lab.
I'm really excited about the internal SkillShares, for current artists, staff, and alumni, starting next week. The topics are full of practical/essential information for everybody working in house right now. On May 11, Michael Mandiberg is going to look at what constitutes a successful use of a Creative Commons licensed work, with a focus on non-textual and non-code uses of the license. He's going to discuss three recent CC licensed projects: the Bright Idea Shade (with Steve Lambert), Bright Bike, and Digital Foundations: An Intro to Media Design (with xtine burrough). Then on May 18, Michael Mandiberg and Steve Lambert will hold a two-part session, discussing best-practices for sharing, focusing on practical ways artists/technologists can most efficiently harness social networking and online networks to diffuse their work to new audiences. Michael will look at ways of sharing images, with a focus on Flickr.
Interested in being a resident or fellow at Eyebeam? Now's your chance, our call is up!!! Both the residencies and fellowships have a March 1 start date. Full info. is now online: Residency Call / Fellows Call. We're looking forward to hearing from you!
We're getting our iPhones and iPod Touches ready to go for some crazy cool RjDj action on December 5! As part of that SkillShare, we're holding a 1.5 hour Intro. Workshop on Pd for those who want to take part in the SkillShare but are still learning basics of electronic music programming. The only prerequisite for the Workshop is to have done something with Pd or Max/MSP before. If you consider yourself a beginner it would help a lot to run through the Pd audio tutorials before attending.
The introductory workshop will run from 12:00 until 1:30 PM, led by Hans-Christoph Steiner, before the actual SkillShare which starts at 2:00. Here are the full details with a sign-up link for this free event.
If you've got big ideas, could use a little time and money, not to mention support and inspiration, to create a visionary project, then go apply to our Summer/Fall Residency. This is the last week of the cycle!
Residents are granted a $5,000 stipend and 24/7 access to Eyebeam's state of the art digital design and fabrication studios at their Chelsea facility. Come work with us!
Last night we held a How To Apply - Eyebeam Residencies forum here in New York. I expected maybe 30 people, but over 100 showed up. It was a great chance for applicants to ask questions about the residency program. A lot of commonly raised issues were ironed out, with insights provided by recent Residency Curatorial Panelist Robert Ransick (Bennington College, Vermont) and current Eyebeam Senior Fellow Steve Lambert (Parsons/The New School and Hunter College). Thanks to them both, and Amanda, for taking the time out to help make the application process as clear as possible for everyone involved.
