©1998 Francine Rivers; (P)2008 Recorded Books
"M K Hudson"
This is not only read very well... the best! It is also such a good read. I read the book, watched the Movie from Netflix, but this was the best. I listen to a lot of books from both Audible, and from I Tunes. I put this book on the very top of the list of books I've read, or listened to. So much history, and such an inspirational work. Like nothing I've ever read. This is a book I will give as a gift to many friend both like minded and non commited Christions / believers in Christ my Lord. No matter your faith, I highly recommed this book to any reader.
"Great book, wonderfully read..."
I really enjoyed this book when I read it a few years ago, so I decided to try it on Audible. I'm glad I did, I couldn't wait to listen every day! Francine Rivers is a gifted story teller and Kate Forbes did a terrific job of drawing me in.
I highly recommend "The Last Sin Eater" to anyone looking for a satisfying "read".
"Really enjoyed this one"
Excellent story well read and definately worth buying. I know I will listen to this one again and again.
I didn't read the print version.
I loved the interesting turns this story took. The history written in was fabulous.
No I haven't. But would like to!
I think I did both at different times.
"A Wee Bit Of Heaven"
Really enjoyed this book but it was hard for me to get into it at first. Miss Rivers has such a wonderful way of telling the gospel. Liked the folklore stories and how you can feel it in your heart when her words pierce your heart with the truth. Thank you for all the good reads. I am a true fan and enjoy all your books!!
"Worth hearing until the end"
I was really looking forward to hearing this book after the good reviews. I was a bit disappointed as it was a very slow start to me. The narrator's voice bugged me initially so that may have been part of the problem. I also wasn't sure where the story was going until I was several hours in. I ended up really getting into it, though, so I'm glad I kept listening. It was worth it!
Retired CFO, Army wife, Mom of five, Grandma of six, two sons who served in combat, love to read books that reflect my values and faith, love mysteries, historical, military stories, and books that don't waste my time . . . if it doesn't have an ending that was worth the wait, I'm not a happy camper.
"Appalachian/Scottish History"
The Last Sin Eater is one of the BEST audio books that I have ever listened to. I had never heard of a sin eater before. After listening, I had to research the custom of using sin eaters when a person died, and found that it was common in Europe during the 1800's and that early settlers to the Smoky Mountains probably carried the practice to the Appalachian Mountains for a time. As late as the early 1900's, the practice still existed in Bavaria. How amazing (and crazy) what people do to try to get rid of their sins and make their way into heaven . . . when Jesus Christ has already paid the price in full. Not only is this an incredible lesson in history, it's a wonderful generational story of family and faith. I can't recommend it enough.
"Heartbreaking and beautiful"
I read this book quite a few years ago and loved it so much I considered it one of the best Christian books I had ever read, so I decided to try the Audible version. While I still loved this book in audio, I guess I have changed a lot since first reading it. I loved the raw emotional journey you go on but this time I really didn't care for the mystical aspects (Lilybet, etc.) and I also didn't like how they went about finding the truth by using dishonest means, even at the very end when they are ringing the death bell to gather everyone. None of those things ruined it for me though. It was still a heartbreaking and beautiful story that I would highly recommend.
"Another best for Francine Rivers"
Forbes' narrating is amazing! I can't imagine reading it myself and enjoying it as much.
Redeeming Love was maybe my favorite Rivers book so far, but easy to see why this was a winner.
Such expression with the accents--I loved it.
"WOW….This book is amazing!"
I am a book-aholic, this was my very first audio book and I really enjoyed being able to listen as I worked…(type A personality) So yes, the audio was better for me this go round.
A favorite character would be had to choose…I enjoyed each one (with the exception of the really bad guy)
She was flawless!
There are no listener reviews for this title yet.

Tulane is set to join what is now called the Big East Conference in 2014 -- and now a television deal has been finalized, the school and league announced on Tuesday.
Commissioner Michael Aresco has announced that the current Big East Conference, soon to be renamed and rebranded, has entered into a multiyear, wide-ranging television contract with ESPN to telecast its football, basketball and Olympic sports. Financial terms of the agreement were not announced but ESPN.com reported earlier that the deal is for seven years and worth $130 million through the 2019-20 school year.
"The Big East's new deal is worth less per school than its current ESPN deal and six times less than what ESPN presented two years ago," ESPN's Brett McMurphy reported.
The contract includes comprehensive national exposure via the acknowledged leader in college sports television, the ESPN networks.
"I am delighted that the current Big East Conference, which will be renamed and rebranded, will be partnering with ESPN well into the future," Aresco said in statement jointly released by Tulane and the Big East. "The extraordinary exposure provided by the ESPN networks will give viewers the opportunity to see the exciting competition and intense rivalries that will characterize our Conference."
"This agreement with ESPN will offer outstanding exposure for all of our institutions and is evidence of the great future for our conference," Judy Genshaft, President of the University of South Florida and Chair of the Big East Executive Committee said in the same release.
The current football contract with ESPN runs through the 2013 season. By 2014-15, football, basketball and Olympic sports will be under one agreement. The conference will retain marketing rights which will provide lucrative sponsorship opportunities.
In football, the new contract will provide unprecedented national coverage for the league. In essence, the extensive national television coverage replaces previous syndication and local telecasts. All conference controlled games, which are conference games and non-conference home games, will be televised.
· Nearly 90 percent of the games will be carried on national broadcast or national cable.
· The minimum number of telecasts collectively on ABC/ESPN/ESPN2/ESPNU will be higher than the number of telecasts in the current contract, which expires at the end of the 2013 season.
· The conference championship game, which is expected to begin in 2015, will be carried by ABC or ESPN on Championship Saturday.
In men's basketball, all conference controlled games will be televised.
· More than 63 percent of the games will be carried on national broadcast or national cable, which will be a minimum of 107 games.
· The entire conference postseason basketball tournament will be on national television. The championship game will be televised on ABC or ESPN.
In women's basketball, there is tremendous national and regional coverage.
· Nearly 60 games will be televised on national cable, regional sports networks and ESPN3, including the entire women's basketball postseason tournament. Eighteen regular-season games will be televised nationally.
· The women's basketball tournament championship game will be on ESPN or ESPN2. The semifinals also will be on national cable.
In Olympic sports, numerous championship contests will be televised nationally.
The next steps for the conference include naming and branding.
"We are working expeditiously to rename and rebrand the Conference," Aresco added. "We have an outstanding group of institutions that are excited to work together to establish a dynamic new identity."

Soony Saad scored late in the first half, and Dominic Dwyer added a penalty kick goal in the second to help 10-man Sporting Kansas City beat the Houston Dynamo 2-0 on Friday night.
Kansas City snapped a five-game winless streak to improve to 6-5-4. Houston (5-9-2) has lost four straight - all shutouts - and hasn't scored in 389 minutes.
Saad scored in the 45th minute, taking a pass from Benny Feilhaber and sending a shot into the right net from just the left of the upper half-circle.
Dwyer struck in the 70th, firing his penalty kick low into the right net and freezing Houston goalkeeper Tyler Deric. Sporting was awarded the penalty kick after Houston's A.J. Cochran had a hand ball in the box off a corner kick.
Kansas City played the final 69 minutes a man down after Toni Dovale was given a straight red card in the 21st minute for elbowing Houston's Alex Lopez in the face.

Daily Link Roundup - July 21, 2009
Everyday I encounter a number of interesting websites, articles, and blog posts that are definitely worth mentioning. I hope you find these as interesting as I do!
- The National Council for Jewish Women has officially backed Sonia Sotomayor! NCJW President Nancy Ratzan said, "Judge Sonia Sotomayor of the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals is an eminently qualified jurist, who, throughout her legal career, has kept faith with the constitutional values of liberty, equality, and justice. She will be a welcome addition to the Supreme Court."
- What Would Buffy Do? I know this may be old news for some of you, but I just discoverd it and had to say something. Jonathan McIntosh, a self-proclaimed "aspiring feminist guy," created a mash-up video that combines footage from the Twilight movie and the Buffy the Vampire Slayer tv series. Buffy, a feminist heroine, does not tolerate the advances of Edward, Twilight's supposedly-sexy vampire. It sheds light on the scary truth about Twilight - that Edward's creepy, controlling, manipulative and abusive behavior has been marketed as "love" to a generation of young women.
- The Last Taboo: Intermarried Rabbis. Julie Wiener, in a special to The Jewish Week, muses on the issue of intermarriage for rabbis. Also check out Rabbi Yaakov Menken's thoughts on the topic here. This is also interesting to think about considering Keren McGinity's insights on intermarriage in Still Jewish: A History of Women and Intermarriage in America. (Check out our interview with Keren here!)

Right when you step out of the first town. Route 101. I love that music.
Right when you step out of the first town. Route 101. I love that music.
After years, I've finally claimed deoxys! Watch your back! hehe...
Miror B's XD theme. I love that song. It makes me want to have a disco party.
Shiny Count: 50
Thanks Eeveelover824 for the animated banner!
Thanks Fairywitch for the button!
All the music in R/S/E.
But then again, Ruby was my first game, so maybe it's just nostalgia.
I disliked how in BW2, the remix for the Hoenn Leaders tournament added some sort of squeaking, ticking noise in the background that drove me insane.

We all make mistakes, but the biggest one we can make is not learning from them.
The best Gen III Music has to either be:
The Desert on Route 111, or
Champion Steven's Battle (One of the reasons why I claimed him)!
Steven FTW!
I think Route 111 just edges it, but, I mean urrgh, just listen to THIS and be satisfied...

I love the sound when you battle Kyogre/Groudon/Rayquaza! Oh god I love that sound..

Team Magma/Aqua's theme was BEAST!

Gotta play 'em all!Until next time...
Dive theme. This theme makes me wish I was a mermaid.
Either Littleroot or Dive theme xD
I'm sorry but the Elite four/Champ music is terrible
Fo trade: lv 100lv 100 ev trainedshiny event
Stuff I want: legit shinies. IDC if they're cloned, just as long as they're legit.
Yep the Desert music was cool.
wild pokemon and route 104 are my fav
Tam's Aqua/Magma theme and the Regi's theme are awesome!
I like all the music from Hoenn games.Well,Ever Grande,Petalburg and Fortree cities' themes are meh.It's my opinion though.
That's hard, I like all R/S/E soundtracks for nostalgic reasons; I think my favourites have to be Slateport City and Elite Four's.
Route 120's music has grown on me a lot recently. I used to like it before, but now I just love it. It sounds adventurous, but also soothing in a way. I've been playing Ruby a lot recently and I've been going to Route 120 just to listen to the music; watching the clouds reflected in the puddles in the area is my favorite thing to do. Really, I like all the R/S/E music with the possible exception of Route 123's theme; it just sounds kind of bland to me.
the sound track for SRE was great
my claim is Staraptor
I love to help people if you ever need anything let me know, I will see what I can do
The champion song of this region was THE BEST OF ALL TIME. That's simply my opinion and I love it. 3rd gen remake FTW.

Either the elite four or the champions theme.

The magic hands are a bit too quick...
My advice inform the readers by always putting: 'Chapter one' next to the title of the story. It kind of puts every thing in the right context... The good quality of writing is still here, together with the tendency to write overly short mini chapters. Is anyone chasing you? You know you can do better.
by javmor7908/08/13Not feeling this.
Normally I am a reconciliation person, but this is not a reconciliation situation. Your wife comes to get a few things so that she can be with the guy that she ruined your 20 marriage for, she cheats with you on the guy that she was with, and now you feel like you guys can make it work? If there were ever a BTB situation, this would definitely warrant it.
by Lickideesplit11/07/13Rent a storage unit
Shoulda rented a storage unit in her name. Put all her shit in it, and email her the details, or have your lawyer call her!
If she is THAT incapable of sticking by her decisions, why the fuck would anyone have kept her (for 20 years, no less)? I am seeing nothing by the author which establishes that Hubby is any 15 year old who stands in line for a gangbang on a stranger! Yeah, hormones are a tough taskmaster, but an adult is supposed to be able to over-rule them with the Big Head! Neither Sweetie nor Hubby are depicted as having any other guidance models!

Highlights from Tuesday, 29 February
On the second day of the 44th Session on the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW-44), delegates met throughout the day in Plenary to hear country and NGOs statements on the follow-up to the Beijing Conference and the review and appraisal of the implementation of the PFA.
On Wednesday, delegates will reconvene in a morning Plenary to hear a panel presentation on emerging issues, trends and new approaches affecting women's. In the afternoon, delegates will introduce proposals under all agenda items and meet in informal consultations.
CSW-44 Chair Dubravka Šimonovic, Croatia
F.R.B. Oeri, Kenya (listen to her speech)
Kenya affirmed her country's commitment to, and actions toward, implementing the PFA. She said Kenya will build on lessons learned, and underscored the need for resources to monitor and evaluate progress.
Linda Tarr-Whelan, United States (listen to her speech)
She called for a holistic, human-rights based approach to the FWCW and PFA review, and highlighted the issues of, inter alia: women's leadership and political participation; women's economic empowerment; violence against women; trafficking in women; and women in armed conflict. She supported a resolution on the situation of women and girls in Afghanistan. She emphasized the importance of NGO participation in review and implementation.
Brenda Katten, Israel (listen to her speech)
She stressed the importance of women's participation in the political process, including at high levels. She noted that women's empowerment often begins at the grassroots and local levels and underscored the importance of training for political leadership. She concluded that women need to act as a group, promoting each other.
<<Mohammed Al-Humaimidi, Iraq (left)
South Africa stated that poverty eradication is not only a possibility, but a global imperative, and called for courage and commitment in addressing human rights and equal rights for women.
The African Regional Caucus (right) highlighted globalization and HIV/AIDS as reasons for African women's deteriorating status. Calling on African governments to harmonize their laws with international commitments, she added that both creditor and debtor countries share the responsibility for reversing the feminization of poverty.
(Not pictured) The Arab Regional Caucus said armed conflict and economic sanctions pose the most serious threats to the well-being of Arab women. She lamented that despite the support of NGOs and an increase in government expenditures, progress has been minimal, and concluded that only a just and sustainable peace agreement would alleviate suffering.
<<The Europed and North America Caucus called for a Fifth World Conference on Women and the political will necessary to allocate resources and move the agenda forward. (left)
>>Aster Zaoude, UNDP, reflected on 20 years of exponential growth in the world's overall resources, but cautioned that it masks disparities, including between men and women. Stating that UNDP works for equal opportunities for women and men, she pointed to the agency's efforts to mainstream gender issues. (right)

At its top levels like the Winston Cup series, stock car racing is the highest tech sport in world right now. They dump so much money into design and R&D, and you should see how wired a pit crew is. Industrial laptops everywhere. I read about one team that had employed a cracker to sniff other teams wireless LAN packets. If horse racing is the "sport of kings", stock car racing is the sport of the masses.
Now on to the athletes... yes athletes. Do you have the guts to drive a car 195 MPH? Ok guts alone don't make an athlete. Do you have the endurance to drive a car at 195MPH with a track temperature of 140 degrees and an air temperature of 98 for four hours while drinking less than a gallon of water? Rare birds those guys.
As for the appeal... easy, vicarious midlife crisis solving-- can't afford a new red convertible how about watching someone else's car go real fast. Or like Tom Skerrit in Singles, "People like their cars." I am not a wrenchhead, but I appreciate high performance in most of its forms. The appeal of the actual racing events no longer has much to do with the race. They are basically giant tailgate parties with free (well it's an $80 ticket) cigarettes, chew, and beer for everyone. A buddy of mine came home from his last NASCAR event with six cases of Budweiser, and 15 cartons of cigarettes that he didn't pay a dime for.
Finally NASCAR on television just doesn't capture it. Much like baseball and soccer you gotta be there to get the effect. The cars are the loudest thing you've ever heard. Way louder than a rock concert. You can actually feel the cars go by. On some tracks you'll see no one sitting in the first few rows. Part of its because of the poor view. Part of its because the blast of air from each passing car is like a Lennox Lewis body blow. Everybody is a NASCAR fan after going to their first race.

Jan. 30, 2008
SEATTLE - A ceremony originally set for Wednesday to plant a replacement for an "Olympic Oak" that once stood on campus will be re-scheduled. The tree will be planted on the south side of the Conibear Shellhouse in the near future.
The original oak tree was brought to campus in 1936 by rower Joe Rantz, a member of the Husky varsity eight that won the gold medal at the Berlin Olympic Games. Each gold medal winning individual or team at the 1936 Summer Olympics was given an oak tree sapling.
Rantz received the oak designated for the gold medalist in rowing and brought it to Seattle as he was the only member of the crew returning directly home.
The tree thrived for a long time on campus, but it eventually died after being moved to several different campus locations.
Rantz passed away in September and the planting ceremony was organized by his daughter, Judith Willman. She worked to procure the replacement oak tree that will be ceremoniously planted outside the UW's shellhouse.
The new location is ideal as the building contains numerous trophies and memorabilia commemorating the proud tradition of Husky rowing. Also inside the crewhouse, hanging from the rafters of the dining room, is the shell the 1936 crew used to win the gold medal.
The Legacy of the Olympic Oaks
During Berlin's 1936 Olympic games, seedling oaks were awarded to all gold
medallists. Over the next 67 years, the U.S. team's 24 seedling trees were
subjected to difficult days of anti-German sentiment, neglect, and disease.
Today, only a handful remain, each living up to the motto written on its pot
when it was presented: "Grow in the honor of victory! Summon to further
They were a "gift of the German people." A Berlin gardening firm that supplied oak wreaths for the gold medallists proposed awarding the trees. Although Adolf Hitler did not actually present them, the nickname "Hitler Trees" stuck; many of the plaques and markers were removed during WWII due to the association with the Hitler. The oaks were planted in special soil, treated against disease, and tended carefully during cultivation, according to a report at the time. However, the report said most were in a "sorry state" when released from quarantine back in America.

Transfer widget values to model instance - conceptual question
Transfer widget values to model instance - conceptual question
Hello Ext experts,
coming from the pure o-o MVC paradigm, I am currently implementing the transfer of widget values to my model objets in my first Ext JS project.
It seems that in Ext JS the transfer of a value entered by the user in some widget happens only via one some event and the function, which is bound to this event (like: change: or blur: etc).
Obviously, it would make sense to have this handled by one central and generic dispatcher function, which receives the call upon the event and transfers to widget's value to the related model instance.
So far so bad, because how should this one central and generic function determine the model instance? I don't see a good chance for that, especially if there are several instances of the same model class.
My question:
Is it possible to bind some model attribute (instance variable) directly to some widget so that they communicate any change bi-directionally and automatically, i.e. a change to the model changes the view and change in the view [= entry] changes the model.
This is what nornally happens in MVC systems and it's most convenient, because there is no need to write explicit transfer code for every widget and instVar (which will become very big and cumbersome). Also, the instVar setter method then does the value validation for the widget, which keeps the app logic where it belongs and that is in the model.
Please note that in my second release there will be plenty of danamically generated widgets representing insrVars from many instances of several model classes. This makes a direct MVC-like binding even more desirable.
I found no such subject in the doc or in the turorials.
Thank you for your comments and hints

So what is your model? a subclass of Observable? a Record?
21 Sep 2009 1:43 AM #3
Oh no! Observables, widgets etc are views (in MVC terms). A widget is never a model!
There are model classes like page, catalog, user, order, product etc. each of which has or can have several or many instances. Often, selecting one model instance transfers its values to the views (widgets) and changing the widget(s) transfers the entered values to the related model instance.
This is why in a MVC system instance and widget are normally bound to one another (often through some special intermediate instance but that is an implementation detail).
I know that Ext is not an MVC system but it would still make sense for me to be able to implement this welll-proven paradigm as closely as possible and to avoid much useless and redundant code.

The following response gave me that impression, you asked for help then ranted on as if you knew it all:
You mistakenly think that Record and Observable are widgets? They are not.
I'm well aware of what a model is in terms of the design pattern, I was enquiring as to what your models were implemented as so I could offer some advice, but like on every one of your posts you take a 'know it all attitude'.
That's where I got the false impression.
I wasn't subscrived to this thread, I saw you reference it again from another post (you know the one), so to put this into context and to re-iterate what I said in the other post:
I asked if your models were Records or subclasses of Observable - neither of which can be considered widgets.
A widget is an element of a GUI - it's part of the interface.
Both Record and Observable subclass JavaScript's native Object - they are lightweight and ideal for encapsulating domain data.
In MVC, M stands for model - models encapsulate domain data.
Lesson over - I will not waste my time educating you further.

Just to inform the other readers:
Danh2000 published a private message from me to him without my consent. See this very unpleasent thread. Because of this and his permanent personal allegations I put him on my ignore list (as the first ever).
However, he is not giving any explanations, only excuses, as he obviously does not understand the MVC paradigm (see his question above if Observables, super class of most views, widgets and forms, were models, that is ridiculous).
Still, I'd be very interested if anybody could explain how to bind Ext views to model instances.

@TheBerliner --
Clearly, you have a seasoned grasp of the concepts relating to 'MVC'. Why brow-beat yourself (and other Forum contributors) over the head with that fact?
Take the bits and pieces from the community you think apply to your still-evolving understanding of the Ext framework and press-on, without unnecessary reflection.
Armed with that, write us all an M-V-binding you are proud of.
Rant out of the way now, understand that Ext lives in a purely event-based engine (browser, AIR, etc). util.Observable (in conjunction with the DOM event system) is a mere acknowledgement of that fact -- which is why it is a popular base class for both Data and UI classes.
Thus, Observable (or a well-designed subclass) might be an ideal candidate for the binding you seek.
There have been some recent enhancements to Observable (ie. class-level listeners) that may prove interesting from a binding standpoint. (Search the Forums for more chatter on that).
Your statement, as it relates to Ext's design:
This is what nornally happens in MVC systems and it's most convenient, because there is no need to write explicit transfer code for every widget and instVar (which will become very big and cumbersome). Also, the instVar setter method then does the value validation for the widget, which keeps the app logic where it belongs and that is in the model.
But know that data.Record and data.Store (collectively, the model) and eg. GridView (a View) are packed with all the necessary Observable events and already perform the traditional Model-View binding (for that scenario).
What you might want to reconsider are the merits of Record->Form->posting vs Edit-Record->Store->CRUD. As of Ext 3, (thanks to the data.Writer and Ext.Direct), I've completely abandonded the Form posting 'BS' and now let the Store handle all (full CRUD) the server-side interaction. In the end (IMO), that approach makes your final MVC design extensible, and its behavior more predictable.
Enuf said, for now. Good Luck."be dom-ready..."

First of all, Doug, thank you very much for your very valuable comments and thoughts. I am grateful although or rather because you have raised more questions than answered. That is perfectly fine.
Second, let me state that I can't see any difference or dispute between "event driven" and MVC. The 'Cs' in the MVC tools that I have been using were all listening to events from the 'Vs' to process data to the 'Ms' and vice versa. So I can't see any reason why this shouldn't be possible with Ext either, but, of course, being still new to Ext JS I can well be wrong and this is why I made this post.
On the other side, what seems the general practise (again, I can well be wrong) of handling this via explicit handlers and listerners seems quite cumbersome to me, it seems not or little generic and thus causing plenty of redundant code. And this is what I always try to avoid.
Just a few comments.
Does that mean blaming me for answering the question what MVC means?
Well, my life experiance told me to first switch on my brain before implementing some first unreflected ideas. Not always good, but mostly.
Sure, but see above, where and why should this mean any hindrance? I can't see it. "Event driven" is one feature of (not only) an o-o design but not per se an alternative, in my view.
If that is the case, then this is the central answer to my post. Thank you for now but please allow me to be still sceptical although this can be the case, because I don't yet clearly see the whole picture and also because I wouln't call Record or Store to be "real" models. At best, they are value holders to feed to 'Vs'. Definetely they don't have and shouldn't have either any app domain knowledge and that is the primary role of the 'Ms' in life.
Somehow I am missing the 'Cs', which are primarily in charge of administrating the UI and its behaviour on a broader scale.
If I understand this correctly, this means that data flows essentially from the widgets (raw entry) via the Store directly into the DB bypassing any domain model, which are not involved any more and which could check the syntactical and semantical correctness of the data?
Well, this may work for some apps with simple or little data but I doubt that this can be a solution in data-heavy apps, especially since the Ext widgets essentially lack any detailed value checking inside the UI, except via separate validation functions but this is and should remain the home-turf of the 'Ms' and this should not lead to distributed logic.
Perhaps my concerns become more understanble if I mention that all of my domain models (in Smalltalk) are purely data driven and can therefore vary substantially depending on version, configuration and admin/user selections. This should or rather must be reflected, of course, by the related Ext UI or rather by the Ext UI, which should be generated (in a 2nd or 3rd release) from these domain model data definitions. I don't see the two worlds isolated fron one another also because Smalltalk will generate the Ext UI from its data and domain knowledge.
Ok, I will think about this with your input and, if successful, perhaps add some thoughts and comments later on.

Not blaming you. Just don't see anywhere that anyone actually asked you that question. Just chalk it up to 'cultural differences' I suppose.
The intent there was to remind you just how unproductive all this 'SmallTalkOO vs Javascript-prototype-inheritance' bashing (from other Berliner threads) actually is in the grand scheme of things. Let's just acknowledge the differences and move on.
I believe, there lies the mixup in interpretation of Ext's overall class design. The lines are not clearly drawn.
As you may have noticed, there is no formal (even abstract) class heirarchy that implies M vs V vs C. The best I could attempt in delineating two examples of them for Ext:
M = Record/Store
V = GridView/RowEditor/Forms, etc
But, C is something that you (using the myriad events and callbacks from the M & V) must derive on your own, including a domain-model of your choosing. Ext already uses that 'pattern' for what you could call M<->V internally (including those 'separate validation functions' you are now aware of). Making a 'formal C' - is your job using the same approach.
Longer-term, you'll need to decide whether it's best to handle 'Model-integrity' (IMO currently View-weighted by Ext) by your Controller or the Model itself (using the provided Record/Store events/callbacks as well) or just let the rear-end do it all/some (likely needs to anyhow).
You have much flexibility, and Observables provide the necessary plumbing for success."be dom-ready..."

Having localized pain in left breast 4 wks post after implant replacement and reduction in sIze. What kind of pain is normal?
A month post-op. Had implants replaced (saline to silicone) and reduced in size (from 350cc to 215cc). Started having localized pain on left breast near the midline, above the nipple- felt "bruised". Now it also has a sharp pain. At first, I only felt this pain when I tried to lay on my side, now it's pretty consistent. Can also feel the implant move when I bend over/lay on side. No fever or anything like that. Is this pain normal and will it go away over time? What's the best way to treat it?
Doctor Answers 6
Thank you for your question. I would definitely recommend
(especially considering the quality and progression of the pain you are
describing) for you to follow up with your surgeon. Am assuming that your surgeon is a board certified plastic surgeon or board eligible plastic surgeon. Aside from that, usually significant
asymmetries in pain or pain that progressively gets worse following surgery –
instead of improving, is a cause for further evaluation. Of course, pending an in person
examination and in-depth evaluation, the symptoms may be explainable, but
seeking your surgeon's help will be the only thing to help address that. Good luck!
Web reference: http://www.georgiaplastic.com/breast-procedures-atlanta/breast-augmentation/
That thing you are describing seems particularly remarkable three weeks after revisional surgery. Nevertheless, any significant changes in your convalescence should be reported to your own plastic surgeon.
Web reference: http://www.zubowicz.com/subpag,13-atlanta-breast-augmentation.htm
It is not uncommon that as you heal and the swelling goes down that your breasts may be sensitive. If you have concerns that something may be wrong, then it is best to see your surgeon.
You might also like...
I am sorry to hear about the problem you are experiencing. Consistent pain one month after breast surgery would not be considered "normal"; it is possible that you are experiencing a complication. For example, sometimes if a patient is experiencing a breast implant displacement problem, localized pain in the area where the breast implant displaces to may occur. Best to see your plastic surgeon, who will be able to evaluate your situation much more precisely. Best wishes.
Web reference: http://www.poustiplasticsurgery.com/Procedures/procedure_revisionarybreastsurgery.htm
Some degree of pain is normal but it is impossible to know if this is the case with you. You should call your surgeon and discuss it with him/her.

hey, thanks for letting me see pics of austin, a city i haven't seen in years! i live all the way out here in dallas, i hate being so far away from my family and home, but you just made my day by posting those pics!
Finding Balance- A Note on Weekends
It is no surprise that as soon as Sunday comes around we are already looking forward to the weekend. Or well, maybe if not Sunday definitely by the middle of the week.
The past two weeks I had exams but I made sure to take some time to do something different over the weekend or perhaps, my attempt to find balance in all the things that many of us have going on throughout the week (and sometimes even into the weekend).
Two weekends ago I had what I thought was by far one of my most balanced weekends, perhaps because I did the things that I love the most.
It started with Friday, after I took my American Literature midterm exam. That night Jimmy and I went to the Alamo Drafthouse downtown and watched Slumdog Millionaire. Yes, the good reviews are true and it definitely deserves the awards- so rent it, now that it's out on DVD! Both for Jimmy and I was our first time at the Drafthouse so it was a cool experience. At the Alamo Drafthouse you can order food while you watch the movie and the set up of the theater is unique as it has long narrow tables built into each row. If you have an Alamo Drafthouse nearby, definitely go to experience it and if you come to school in Austin, don't wait three years like me to check it out!
Check mark one for balance this weekend: Spending quality time, with the ones you care the most about while exploring something new.
I was able to volunteer during Project Reach Out (PRO) for the very first time! Although I have been involved with the UT Student Volunteer Board for the last three years, I had yet to be able to make it to PRO, our bi-annual day of service. Rolling out of bed by 9 a.m. on a Saturday is no easy job, but with Janice being outside waiting for me by then, I had no excuses. We went to East Austin to conduct a beautification project at a home. We, along with 15 other volunteers, were assigned a home in East Austin which we painted and did some garden work.
So check mark number two for balance this weekend: Find time to do the things you enjoy the most!
Afterward, Jimmy, Anna, and I went out for lunch at Which Which- which I could safely say is my favorite sandwich place on The Drag (Guadalupe Street, right across from campus).
The weather was definitely on our side so Jimmy and I decided to go down the street to the State Capitol. It is literally three blocks from Jester Residence Hall, the place I've called "home" the past three years. I had already visited when I first came to UT, but Jimmy never had so we took care of that on that weekend.
Check mark number three: Take a break and go outside! (Tip: there are so many endless things to do that are absolutely free that you can enjoy around campus, that you should definitely take advantage of- checking out the Capitol is one of them!)
To make my day even better than it already was, I saw Regina and Pearl – two of my closest friends since freshman year- and I got to hang out with them for a while even though at the library because of the exams we had coming up.
Check mark number four: No matter where it is, you can find time to spend with friends that some times you don't get to see too often because of the every day hectic-ness…even if it is at the library, on a Saturday night.

NEW ORLEANS, La. -- We've seen the future at quarterback, and it comes in the form of a rocket-armed passer who can break your fingers with his fastball and break your tackle attempts on a mad dash up the field.
He's Colin Kaepernick of the San Francisco 49ers, and if he wins the Super Bowl Sunday against the Ravens -- in only the 10th start of his career -- everyone's going to want one just like him.
"The game is changing," said Panthers quarterback Cam Newton, who proved in 2011 under then-coordinator and current Browns coach Rob Chudzinski that a dual-threat rookie could come in and tear up the league right away. "The traditional quarterback is kind of getting washed out. You have to possess some type of running ability because the defenses are getting stronger and faster as well. It's the way the game is evolving and I think you'll see more and more of it."
Kaepernick, who took over for Alex Smith (concussion) in week 10 and led the 49ers to a 7-2 record and Super Bowl berth in his first season as a starter, is the face of the new breed -- which includes rookies Robert Griffin III of Washington and Seattle's Russell Wilson.
Never mind that they're young and inexperienced. They're zipping all over the field out of their zone-option schemes and the pistol formation, in which the quarterback lines up four yards behind the center instead of shotgun's seven, and the back lines up three yards behind the quarterback.
If a man's open, they can fling it with the best of them. If not, they can take off and gash you with their legs. In his playoff victory over the Packers, Kaepernick set the NFL playoff rushing record for a quarterback with 181 yards, including TDs of 20 and 56 yards. The following week, the Falcons kept him in the pocket, so he let Frank Gore do the running and used his arm to storm back from a 17-0 deficit to win 28-24.
"I hate to say this because I'm defending him, but he's actually fun to watch," said Ravens defensive coordinator Dean Pees, the former Kent State head coach. "He looks like a kid that just wanted to pick up a ball and let's go out and play in the backyard on a Saturday. I'm not saying he's not serious. He is. But he really looks like he's having fun, which makes it even more exciting to watch the guy play."
Pees, who's witnessed the wildcat go the way of the dinosaur, is convinced the read-option is here to stay.
"I think it may increase because whatever colleges are doing, those are the guys that are going to get drafted," he said. "And coaches are going to play to their strengths. There's still the Andy Daltons ... but look at the top athletes coming out and playing -- it's the Cam Newtons and the RG3's and the Colin Kaepernicks."
Pees stressed that the 49ers offense is dangerous because of all the weapons Kaepernick, a second-round pick in 2011 out of Nevada, has at his disposal.
"To be able to throw the ball deep, you've got to have guys that can run deep," said Pees. "He's got Randy Moss, Vernon Davis and Michael Crabtree that can all run deep. They were an explosive offense even before they went to the zone-read. These guys can really spread the field on you."
But the Ravens' Flacco, a classic, dropback passer with a cannon arm, cautioned against the trend.
"I think to a certain extent those guys are always going to bring what they have to the game," said Flacco, who's thrown eight touchdowns without an interception in his three playoff victories this season. "But eventually they'll become pocket passers because that's the only way they're going to be able to survive for a 10-plus year period of time or a 16-game season.
"I think over the long run you can see that guys get beat up and it takes a wear and tear on their body. You need to be durable and be their for your team."
While Flacco expects the dual-threat crew to come more to his side, he has no plans to slide over to theirs.
"I'm not ready to run any of that," he said. "You can leave that to the 49ers and our guys trying to stop it. But shoot, I see some of the holes these guys are running through and I'm like 'well I don't know if I'm going to get a touchdown, but I can probably get 20 yards for you on that one.'"
He joked about a bunch of hotshot whippersnappers and "I'd love to say that's all going to come to an end someday, but these guys are good quarterbacks. They've got good football teams and they're going to be here for a while."
Pees said one thing that makes Kaepernick special is that he knows when to fold 'em.
"He hasn't taken a lot of hits," said Pees. "He knows when to slide and when to get down and he really has enough speed that when he gets on the perimeter, most of the time he's running away from somebody and when it's time to go out of bounds, he goes out of bounds."
Former Browns and Super-Bowl winning quarterback Trent Dilfer, now an ESPN analyst, said it's Kaepernick's mental makeup that makes him unique.
"He's a no-flinch guy," said Dilfer. "He's kind of an assassin-type personality as a competitor. Of all the great quarterbacks I've studied and been around, that's kind of the one common denominator. To boot, he's got the frame, the arm, the athleticism. It's like the perfect storm for him to be able to run a system that was invented for him in the NFL."
So will Chudzinski and Norv Turner try to find the next Kaepernick or Wilson? After all, Chudzinski helped kick off the trend by showcasing Newton's dual skills in 2011.
"Being in Carolina for the last two years, we were really on the cutting edge of knowing that these are the guys that are coming into [the NFL] running these systems," Chudzinski said when Turner was hired. "To adjust your system enough to let them go out and do some of the things they're familiar with and then merging that with traditional NFL-style offenses is the key.
"I think it's going to be here to stay in some fashion."
Especially if Kaepernick beats the Ravens on Sunday.

Ranchi: The BJP on Thursday said its members would court arrest tomorrow in Jharkhand against the Union Cabinet`s recommendation of President`s Rule in the state keeping the Assembly in suspended animation.
"The party has called a jail bharo andolan in every district tomorrow in protest against the Centre ignoring the cabinet decision to dissolve the house in favour of a fresh mandate," BJP?s state unit President Dineshanand Goswami said.
"The Arjun Munda government had recommended dissolution of the House, but the Congress-led government at the Centre wants the assembly to be kept in suspended animation under President?s rule to rule the state indirectly," Goswami said at a dharna near Raj Bhavan.
Ajsu party President and former deputy chief minister Sudesh Mahto said "The decision is contrary to the people's desire for an elected government. Keeping the assembly in suspended animation under President's rule is no alternative."
He said since no party had the mandate to form a government the Assembly should have been dissolved to allow a fresh mandate.
Mahto was one of the seven ministers present on January 8 when the erstwhile Arjun Munda government recommended dissolution of House to Governor Syed Ahmed to pave the way for fresh elections.

Ghost Motel 6: Demon Bar
ory: Violet-AIM
Voices: XwaynecoltX & Violet-AIM
This is an interactive story flash. You will have to click with your mouse on
objects or creatures(people) in order to get clues to advance. All the
information you need is contained within episode 6. The game is intentionally
made to be a little challenging and involves puzzle solving (putting together clues), so it might not be
suitable for some viewers who don't like A LOT of interactivity. Try to pay attention to important clues while you
play. Good luck.
Info: In the previous episode, Joseph and Ray encounter a demon who refuses
to let them proceed through the tunnel. Episode 6 starts off with Ray and that
demon continuing their fight, and eventually leads to Joseph and Ray entering
a demon bar, in search of clues to find the missing Tabitha.
Hint 1: Look for a map, which will help you locate other areas. Make sure you
check in every room, so you don't miss an important clue.
Hint 2: Some creatures may give you irrelevant information, so not all clues
pertain to what you need.
Hint 3: If you don't know the answer to a riddle, don't guess. Look around for
clues that will help you get the correct answer. This is not meant to be a
guessing game since the answer is available to you if you search for it.
Hint 4: Pay attention to the color of things. Color is a type of clue.
Hint 5: If you get stuck, then go back to places you've been to, since
might notice something you didn't notice before.
Update 2: Due to complaints about slowness, I decided to upload a newer version where Joseph moves a lot FASTER, likes he's running. Tell me if it's too fast.
Update 3: pool game made slightly easier
This was made by Violet-AIM (not XwaynecoltX). He broke into my account and tried to claim collab credit for some of my movies.

Home » Football NewsFootball: 2013 WA Football ScheduleJanuary 17, 2013 By Kevin McCloskey of Western Alamance High School NOTE: Due to conference re-alignment and the addition of NE Guilford to the schedule, some "shuffling" had to occur. As such, you may notice some of the teams we played at home in 2012 (such as N.Guilford and Rock.County), we also play at home in 2013. Likewise, some games (Williams, E.Guilford) will be played on the road again in 2013. Things should settle down again in 2014 and we'll be back to the traditional home-and-away series on alternating years.
