And the Homer High girls soccer team timed its best soccer of the year perfectly, storming off with a pair of shutout wins in last weekend's Region III championships at Skyview and becoming Homer's first girls soccer team to advance to the state tournament.
In first-round play Friday morning, the Mariners, seeded No. 3, dominated the No. 2 seed Wasilla en route to a 3-0 win. Then, after a few hours break, they came back and outlasted Palmer for a dramatic 1-0 win in the semifinal, a win that clinched Homer its first-ever trip to the Region III girls soccer title game.
On Saturday, the Mariners fell to Colony 4-1 in the championship in a game that looks like more of a footnote after Homer's emotional victory over Palmer.
"It was awesome," striker Carly Garay said of watching Chantrelle Cousins' game-winning goal cross the line with less than two minutes remaining in the game. "We had practiced a (tie-breaker) shootout but we really didn't want it to come to that because there's too much chance involved."
Palmer reached the semifinal by winning a shootout over Kenai, upsetting the No. 1 seeded Kardinals.
Had regulation play ended with a 0-0 score, the Mariners would have faced five-minute overtime session <> not a pretty thought after 160 minutes of soccer in a day. If neither team scored in extra session, a shootout would have decided the match.
But Cousins ended that scenario when she got a foot on Syverine Abrahamson's goal-mouth cross in the 78th minute.
"That was a great game," coach Mickey Todd said. "Both teams had tired legs and the game was back and forth the whole way."
Once the final whistle had blown, the celebration was on. The Mariners had made it to State.
It begins for the Mariners today at 6 p.m. when they play Dimond High of Anchorage, which finished second in the Region IV tourney.
It was all made possible by the 3-0 win over a tough Wasilla team Friday morning. The Warriors had beaten the Mariners 2-1 earlier in the season.
Hannah Baechler fired in a crossing pass from Cousins to open the scoring in the 36th minute.
Early in the second half, Garay scored two goals in two minutes. In both instances, she corralled a through pass and found herself on a breakaway. No one was more surprised than Garay, who said she hadn't had a single breakaway all season until Friday.
Todd gave defensive kudos to Holly McCune, who drew the task of covering Warrior top gun Christie Hayes, and Mariner goalkeeper Chaunna Dietz, who presided over two shutouts.
In the title game, the Mariners played Colony to a 1-1 tie through the first 40 minutes, behind a goal from Garay.
But Colony scored three quick goals early in the second half to ice the conference championship.
Garay said the Mariners were pleased with how they played against a talented Knights team.
"Before, we didn't even get a shot on goal," she said of Colony's 5-0 win over the Mariners earlier this month.

The crux is between 2 and 3, and the 3rd bolt is pretty high. You need an attentive belayer for this one. The first positive hold is over the bulge and it isn't great. There is a really cool high reach to an undercling pocket near the top. This climb is worth it just to grab that thing. You can see it from the ground, and it is as cool as it looks. |

Chlamydia is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) that is caused by a bacterium called Chlamydia trachomatis. Chlamydia is a common STI that can be spread during vaginal, anal, or oral sex. It can also be transmitted from an infected mother to her baby at birth. Teenagers and young adults are most commonly infected. Most people infected with chlamydia don't have symptoms and should therefore be screened for the infection regularly.

Again off topic, but we had a Rottweiler Shihtzu come into the clinic. Father was the shih tzu... O.o |

Had surgery done (not TPLO, the classic extra-capsular kind) on my at the time 7 year old Lab. Wonderful results after a long rehab; she is now 10 1/2, runs and jumps like a kangoroo; the other knee never blew and I do not expect it to. If your dog is very active or heavier, TPLO might be the way to go but there are several kind of surgeries. It might be worth looking into which one is the most appropriate for your buddy. As you research and decide, keep him under control (leashed) at all times, even in the yard to avoid any cornering, hard running, or jumping.

Our Buddy tore his ACL when he was 8-1/2 yrs old. Not a good candidate for the surgery, we opted for the A-Trac knee brace from WoundWear. (need measurements of leg from Vet, and runs around $400). He wore it for approx. 6 months and helped, but would have preferred the surgery. Unfortunately, his other leg went downhill, and had to order a stifle for that knee too. We had about 50-60% improvement; some have had better, some less with this brace. Might be an alternative if you opt out of the surgery. |

Home > Debug > Debug register interface > APB port access permissions |
The restrictions for accessing the APB slave port are described as follows:
You must configure the system to disable accesses to the memory-mapped registers based on the privilege of the memory access.
The processor only supports a single power domain, therefore you must configure the system to return an error response to all accesses made to the APB interface while the processor is powered-down.
When non-privileged software attempts to access the APB slave port, the system must ignore the access or generate an error response to the access. You must implement this restriction at the system level because the APB protocol does not have a privileged or user control signal. You can choose to have the system either ignore the access or generate an error response.
You can place additional restrictions on memory transactions that are permitted to access the APB port. However, ARM does not recommend this.
You can lock the APB slave port so that access to some debug registers is restricted. ARM architecture v7 defines two locks:
The external debugger can set this lock to prevent software from modifying the debug registers settings. A debug monitor can also set this lock prior to returning control to the application to reduce the chance of erratic code changing the debug settings. When this lock is set, writes to all debug registers are ignored, except those generated by the external debugger, that override the lock. For more information, see Lock Access Register.
The processor does not support OS Lock.
These locks are set to their reset values only on reset of the debug logic, provided by PRESETDBGn.
You must set the PADDRDBG31 input signal to 1 for accesses originated from the external debugger for the Software Lock override feature to work.

Activist Post: New Fake HIV Test to Target PoorQuicklink submitted by Joan Mootry Permalink,
The Daily Mail (UK), Fox News and other agencies report that Imperial College scientists in London have developed a new HIV test that is '10 times more sensitive and a fraction of the cost of current methods.' A closer look at the report reveals a critical flaw: The test detects a protein produced by millions of healthy people who are not at any risk of becoming infected with HIV. So like almost all other HIV tests on the market today, healthy people and incompetent clinicians who use this test without reading the package insert will be fooled into believing that there is an HIV infection when blood simply contains a commonly found protein. The test appears to be the latest variation on an old theme: Drug companies create tests to generate fear that prompts healthy people to seek more tests and drugs that will eventually injure and kill them. |

Oasis of the Seas Cruise Review by momamea: Absolutely loved the Oasis!!!
Member Rating
Compare Prices on Oasis of the Seas Western Caribbean Cruises
Absolutely loved the Oasis!!!
We were worried that the ship would feel either too big or too crowded, and were pleased that it felt neither! Everyone was very spread out and we rarely had to wait for anything. We spent a lot of time in the Solarium, which is the Adults only pool area. It was very tranquil and had comfy chairs with cushions. My only complaint was that it was a bit closed in and could have used either more ventilation or cooling misters. Our cabin was average sized for a cruise ship, but was well-laid out for 2 of us. There was just enough space to put things away, and we made sure to stay as organized as possible so we wouldn't lose space with clutter.
Overall, the food was good. Some of it was better than other. There were a couple of nights in the dining room when there was nothing on the menu that was appealing, so we tried to use those nights to eat at specialty restaurants. We loved My Time Dining, which allowed for flexibility based on timing of show reservations. We loved our dinners More
at Giovanni's Table and Chops Grille.
The ports were OK. Labadee was much nicer than we expected with tons of lounge chairs and a pretty beach. We only stayed for a few hours and went back to the ship for lunch. Speaking of lunch, mid-way through the cruise we discovered the Tutti Salad Bar in the main dining room, which was wonderful. You could choose from different lettuces, vegetable and protein toppings, and dressings. Then they would chop it all up with a pizza cutter. I highly recommend it, plus a great lunch menu each day. Much better than the Windjammer buffet.
Costa Maya doesn't have much to offer unless you do an excursion. There's almost nothing to do when you walk off the ship, except a few stores and a public pool. We did the Dune Buggy tour, which was good.
In Cozumel, we just took a taxi to the main shopping area. When we were done shopping, we sat down for a late lunch at Carlos & Charlies, which was such a fun place!!
The shows were great! Hairspray was every bit as good as when I saw it on Broadway. The ice show and water show were fun and different. We also enjoyed the comedy show. Never got to see "Come Fly With Me," though.
Check-in was a breeze, which was a great way to start of the trip. The ship was absolutely beautiful! From the flooring, to the art, to Central Park, the Boardwalk, the Promenade...just amazing! The layout was perfect. Plenty of room to spread out, yet we didn't feel like we had to walk that far to get anywhere. We look forward to trying the Allure to see how she compares. Less

I'm usually a size large in jerseys, and that was the case in this one. Fits long for maximum comfort while riding, with a "sticky" band around the bottom to ensure that it won't ride up and get tangled up with your hydration pack. Super comfy and attractive!
Laura K Stewart
This is without a doubt one of the best MTB women's jerseys ever.
Fits true to size. Runs Long so it won't bunch up while your riding.
Arms fit loose. Zip Pocket in the back.
Very comfortable
Very cute
Much Love

Bill Belichick always dares to be different.
Belichick was the only head coach missing from a group photo taken Monday at the NFL Annual Meeting in Orlando, Fla. All other 31 head coaches were present — including Andy Reid in a gigantic Hawaiian shirt.
Can you spot em all? NFL head coaches incl @BruceArians take group photo at Annual Meeting in Orlando http://t.co/pa0rD122Hy
MarkDalton (@CardsMarkD) March 24, 2014
Belichick, along with New Orleans Saints coach Sean Payton, also skipped the photo last year. Reid wore a huge Hawaiian shirt in that photo, too.
There's no explanation for why Belichick skipped the photo, nor will there likely be one. It's just the Belichick way.

~Sold to the U.K., cheers!~ $800.USD Stunning, fine and rare Jin Dynasty large black bowl with three brown splashes. I have had quite a few examples of this type over the years but this (according to my taste) is probably the finest. Although true black glazes were not developed until the Qing i.e., most black glazes prior to that were just a very dark brown as to appear black. This bowl is as black as they come with three evenly spaced narrow brown splashes with iron oxide paraffin patinas. There is an underglaze which in itself is quite rare that covers the entire bowl and is easily visible below the glaze. Perfect condition! H: 8.4cm/3.3in and D: 18.8cm/7.5in. |

MIA @ McCarren Pool (more by Bao Nguyen)
New York, NY - Diesel will unleash the biggest international party the world has ever seen on Saturday, October 11, 2008. Diesel xXx (titled triple x) will explode with a worldwide spectacular party taking place in 18 cities around the globe beginning in Tokyo. The party will successively move to Beijing, Dubai, Athens, Amsterdam, Milan, Zurich, Munich, Paris, Stockholm, Copenhagen, Barcelona, Oslo, Helsinki, London and Sao Paulo.. The grand finale will take place in New York City with a never before seen "Rock and Roll Circus" themed party for 5,000 of Diesel's closest friends and coolest trendsetters. The legendary event will take place on Pier 3 at the Brooklyn waterfront overlooking the Manhattan skyline.PR continued below....
Hot Chip @ MHOW (more by BAo Nguyen)
Inspired by the old European traveling circuses of yesteryear, the Diesel xXx "Rock and Roll Circus" will create one of the most memorable parties that New York has ever seen. With a visually stimulating and decadent theme, Diesel will present the show of a lifetime with theatrical circus elements including cabaret, fire eaters, trapeze artists, sword swallowing, female roller derby squads amongst other fantastical acts of wonderment- old world European carnival injected with a post-modern American twist! The evening will also feature never been seen before collaborations by several of the biggest names in music reflecting Diesel's iconic brand values - irreverent, sexy, ironic, cool, high energy, and full of style and flair. Already confirmed are N.E.R.D., M.I.A. and Hot Chip. The evening's ringmaster is world renowned nightlife impresario Joey Arias. Fusing the "Rock and Roll Circus" concept with the modern rock show, Diesel will immerse guests in a full-on audio and sensory environment. Full talent line-up and special performances will be revealed soon with one surprise performance announced live during Diesel xXx.All I also know is that the UK band O Fracas is also on the NYC bill. Chaka Khan might be playing the party too.The top secret venue has never hosted an event before and will be turned into a park immediately after making Diesel the one and only brand to use the space and is truly something not to be missed.
The entire xXx global frenzy will be broadcast live on Diesel.com. Users will be able to click in real time on any party around the world and see spectacular images, making the xXx event a truly interactive experience.
But the event is just one part of a blazing hot autumn for Diesel. From September 2008 expect Diesel to provoke and amuse its fans with something else very, very Dirty...something people will be talking about for years to come.
And talking of making history, as part of this autumn's celebrations, Diesel is poised to release a book collection of its iconic advertising. The xXx book is a compendium of all the brand's remarkable communication campaigns and activities.
M.I.A.'s last NYC show was at MoMA. Before that she played McCarren Pool.
This show is day after Hot Chip plays Atlanta and a week after they first play Terminal 5 with Growing.
N.E.R.D. also has a Smirnoff event coming up and is playing Roseland Ballroom on October 4th with Common.

Seriously, diesel xXx?
Is this an homage to one of the finest pieces of cinema in the history of mankind? Of course I am speaking of xXx starring Vin Diesel. Our generation's Citizen Kane.

On a side-note,
Regardless of your political party, actually BOTH political parties, think about your candidates for this upcoming election, and ask yourself...what would happen if John McCain were to fall down n pass away in his old age, if elected prez.? WE'd be left with Palin. Ask yourselves, can we REALLY handle another idiot president for the future of this country? Seriously??? Don't we want our leaders for this country to be the smartest ones??? Like our scientists...our teachers and the like....etc. Let's elect smart leaders this time please, not Sarah Palin. That man is old, ya know? Let's think together for once.

In a recent article in these Proceedings (1) Professor G. N. Lewis has suggested that the conflict between the quantum theory of light and the known facts of interference might be resolved by assuming that an atom never emits a quantum of light except to another atom, the possibility of transmission of the quantum being determined by the nature of the paths connecting the two atoms in such a manner that the transmission will not occur if forbidden by the known laws of interference. The idea is made more plausible by describing such transmissions with the help of Minkowski's four-dimensional geometry of relativity.

How to Play MOV Videos on Microsoft Windows New Surface RT/Pro Tablet
Cannot Play MOV Videos on Surface Pro or RT Tablet?
Microsoft's new Windows-based Surface is a tablet that has a unique expression of entertainment and creativity. Indeed, there are two versions: Surface RT and Surface Pro (Pro vs RT), with Display resolutions (X/Y) of 1366 px/768 px and 1920 px/1080 px, respectively. However, it has been complained for incapability of playing 1080 Bluray M2TS videos, YouTube FLV videos, QuickTime MOV videos, etc.
-I hope there are 3rd party apps or driver updates for the RT to play more than just wmv and mkv format. Can't believe it won't play MOV out of the box.
-When I click play now, the program indicates 'now playing'. However, there is no sound or video playback. Does anyone know what this conflict is with Windows 8 and my MOV videos?
Please read the following tutorial on playing QuickTime MOV video on Surface RT/Pro in full screen.
Convert QuickTime HD Video MOV to Surface Tab RT or Pro
If you try to use HandBrake to free convert MOV to Surface, you will find there is no specific profile for Surface, since HandBrake is no more than a video transcoder freeware for Apple (and has few Android profiles).
To play QuickTime HD video (.mov) on Microsoft Surface tablet, there are two tools that can do it for you. WinX HD Video Converter Deluxe converts MOV to Surface RT or converts MOV to Surface Pro supported MPEG4 video file in low, mid and high video resolutions, and it converts MOV video to Surface RT/ Pro video in the file extension of AVI or WMV2 in a fixed resolution (720x480). Here we take using the former one, WinX HD Video Converter Deluxe, as an example.
First, please download WinX HD Video Converter Deluxe (it also has Mac version), then install it on your computer, and launch it before converting videos.
Step 1: Click '+ Video' to add the QT/MOV video, and the software will display the video information for you.
Step 2: In the Output Profile window, choose 'Microsoft Device', and find the last one 'to Surface Video', and make it your output profile. Depend on your own needs, you can choose Microsoft Surface Pro /2 (AVI/WMV2) or Microsoft Surface RT (AVI/WMV2) as the ouput profile.
Step 3: Click 'Browse' to set the destination folder for the output video that has been converted for your Surface Pro or RT.
Step 4: Click 'Run' to start converting MOV video to Microsoft Surface supported video. After the conversion is completed, you may transfer the video to your device for directly offline playback without worries about video format incompatibility and resolution mismatch any more.
Convert MOV to Surface Tablet
Besides converting MOV to Surface tab video, you can also convert any other videos like M2TS, MKV, MOD, FLV, AVI, RM, RMVB, VOB, ASF, 3GP, etc.
Of course, you can also try another video converter especially for mobile devices - WinX HD Video Converter Deluxe.

Author: Dominique Lapierre
No of Pages : 514
About the Author
Dominique Lapierre is a French Author born in La Rochelle, France, studied and graduated from Lafayette College, Pennsylvania. He spent 14 years as an international reporter with the news magazine Paris Match.His wife Dominique Conchon-Lapierre ( they were married in 1980) is his partner in the City of Joy Foundation (registered in France under the official name of Action pour les enfants des lpreux de Calcutta), which is a purely volunteer-driven association.The couple lives in the south of France. The other books written by Lapierre include 'Is Paris Burning?' and 'Is New York Burning' They have one daughter, Alexandra, who also is a writer. (from wikipedia)
About the book 'City of Joy'
This book was written based on the experiences of the author during frequent stays in Calcutta. The author wrote the story based on three years of extensive research in Calcutta and various areas in Bengal, India. Taking help from personal dairies, correspondence, interviews that were conducted through interpreters in various languages including Hindi, Bengali ,Oriya and Urdu. The author translated them into English and French. The author goes on to add in his note right at the beginning of the book 'This book though the fruit of extensive research does not pretend to speak for the whole of India readers should not extend to the country as a whole , impressions he gathers here of one small corner of it - a small area of Calcutta called The city of Joy. The book dwells on the lives of men and women and children who have been uprooted from their homes in rural villages of India, by implacable nature and hostile circumstances, and thrown into a city whose capacity for hospitality has been pushed beyond imagination.It is a story about how people learn despite incredibly difficult odds to survive, to share and to love.
The Story
It is basically the story of Stephan Kovalski , a polish Catholic priest who wants to make a home to care for the poorest of the poor among the slum dwellers of Calcutta.Much to the amusement of the Local Bishop who offers him better options , he begins his life in Anand Nagar ( City of Joy) , one of the many slums that have mushroomed across the mega city. In the beginning Stephan finds life hard in that seeming hell of one of the poorest and most crowded quarters of Calcutta, but, as he gets to know the slum dwellers he finds more heroism, more love and ultimately more happiness than in many a city of the West. Above all he discovers that the slum had the magical ability to fashion Saints. he lives in the slum, sharing the same life as the others living there, in a shack without proper ventilation and no electricity or light, infested with rats, Cockroaches, Spiders and surrounded by filth , with Eunuchs as his neighbors and the local mafia don befriending him and treating him like their God father and a Leper colony where the inmates needed his help..he helped them all and people of Anand nagar adored him and cherished him calling him a Saint, a precious gift sent to them by the almighty. he in turn found some exceptional human beings who made a great impact on his life and shared with him everything that they possibly could , inspite of their utter poverty , people who made the slum an unusual place with their spirits and outlook towards life
My views
I remember a time when there were many protests in Calcutta , on the streets, in the newspapers, on the television against the contents of this book. People at that time felt that it was a degrading account of their city written with an intention of harming the image of Calcutta and India in general. I read this book specifically because of this and frankly i was curious too..having read it i must say that i do not see any such intent by the author In fact, it is a very realistic portrayal of facts by a great person who loved India and made the slum his home and helped all those needy people who in turn worshiped him.
I feel that for someone to go through life surrounded by what i consider inhuman conditions, while one had better choices takes a lot of courage, determination and a basic love for humanity. Stephan is one of those very rare people who are born once in a life time- truly a saint as the residents of Anandnagar addressed him. Stephan's account about his life in Anandnagar are breathtaking. Initially when the slum dwellers discover that he was going to stay among them , they all begin organizing his household by donating a Bucket, a Mat, an Oil Lamp, a Bed sheet .The poorer they were the more eager they were to give and Stephan discovered the value of food as a gift of life in the slum, something a more fortunate person takes for granted. The various people he comes across - Hasari Pal , a Rickshaw puller who had migrated from a village in Bengal, the Muslims living in Anandnagar leading a life of harmony with the Hindus and the Christians, the dignified manner in which they faced calamities, even death and then life went on as before. Stephan often looks on with amazement wondering 'How could so much beauty spring out of so wretched a place?' I was totally moved by the descriptions about the dangerous and desperate lengths to which people were driven to make paltry sum of money to fulfill the needs of their families.The saddest tale was that of Selima, a Muslim lady ,mother of four , who wants to sell her 7 month old fetus to a trader for Rs. 1200 ( less than twenty pounds) , the trader in turn would sell it to an International Lab for twenty times that amount, to carry out Genetic Research. In a blotched operation by an ill equipped doctor, Selima bleeds to death, having got nothing as she never informs her family about her plans. But all the others make a pocketful and her body is handed over to an attender, who sells it to a place where unidentified corpse is cut up to obtain skeleton for export. Selina's family mourn her for a few days and life is back to its wretched routine in the city of joy. There are some lighter moments as well, when Stephan is questioned by the local Police Officer while on a regular visit , suspects Stephan of helping the Naxalites asks him to go to the station for an interview.
The Police Officer is disbelieving and flabbergasted to know that Stephan is willingly living in the slum since quite some time. Addressing him as Shri Kovalski Stephan , he comes up with his own deductions 'Afterall don't your Jesus Christ and the Naxalites have a number of factors in common? Don't they claim to be rebelling against the same thing ? Against the injustices that repress the poor and the weak?' But when Stephan firmly tells him that he was neither a Naxalite nor a CIA agent nor a Maoist - the Police Inspector thinks for a minute and tells him triumphantly ' Then i am sure , you must be a Jesuit' which makes Stephan both angry and at the same time with a desire to burst out laughing - But again here Stephan's amicable nature and the way he handles the whole situation makes the Police Officer bend down and actually help him out. An amazing place like Anand nagar is full of life. There are celebrations, festivities of all religions . People sell blood, nearly kill themselves or do just about anything to earn a few rupees to pool in for these community celebrations and at the same time they also come together in times of need and suffering.
Everything that was available in the slum was for everybody. At some stage Stephan feels that ' A slum in Calcutta is not like one of those Western Dormitory cities where a man can disappear or die without his neighbor noticing' ,whereas, in Anandnagar , the slightest deviation from the norm aroused curiosity and the whole community came to know the news and an investigation was made to find out the reason and everyone tried to help out if the need arose, as someone rightly remarks ' You cannot hide anything here, not even the color of your soul ' . In my opinion this novel is a spellbinding and a most unusual real life account that is revolting and yet the same time attractive, definitely a Masterpiece written by the author.
The 'City of Joy' leaves an impact on your mind as a hellish, Marvelous and an Unforgettable place.. A story and a novel not to be missed.

David Einhorn, who giveth new life (General Motors) and taketh away (Green Mountain Coffee Roasters), now has Chipotle (CMG -6.5%) in his sights. His short thesis on the "nosebleed" valuation name focuses on Taco Bell and its updated Cantina Bell menu - despite previous reports tipping off that the effect has been minimal. Naturally, shares of Chipotle are diving off the Einhorn takedown. [View news story]

The divergence suggests at least some optimism for a reasonable crop to come in, no? CORN -2.3% as the action in the new crop months overwhelmed the record price move. [View news story]

Strange production errors
The following code cause a really strange error in production:
new MailAddress("email@example.com");
The specified string is not in the form required for an e-mail address.
Obviously it is!
After immediately leaping to the conclusion that .NET is crap and I should immediately start writing my own virtual machine, I decided to dig a little deeper:
Character | Code |
t | 116 |
e | 101 |
s | 115 |
t | 116 |
@ | 64 |
g | 103 |
m | 109 |
a | 97 |
i | 105 |
l | 108 |
. | 46 |
? | 8203 |
c | 99 |
o | 111 |
m | 109 |
8203 stands for U+200B or zero width space.
I guess that someone with a software testing background decided to get medieval on one of our systems.
Holy crap!
I just debugged the exact same issue on my client's system.
We were all similarly scratching our heads till I had to use to view source.
My solution:
// Remove HTML characters email = Regex.Replace(email, "&#[0-9]+;", "");
(A big hacky)
This usually happens when you copy-paste from Word. That guy isn't too sophisticated, he is just lazy...
We've just been dealing with something similar.
select id, catnum from table;
select id, '[' + catnum + ']' from table; 1 [ABCD-1234] 2 [ABCD-1234
(catnum is ment to be unique, too!)
Got some unicode nonsense going on in there somewhere.... I suspect a newline, but we still can't find it.
Another problem to watch out for when using the MailAddress constructor:
I get this quite a lot in our databases. The source is usually legacy processes that rely on Excel spreadsheets/vba for data loading (yuck).
So when is RavenVM coming out?
This is a quite valid and common character in some languages, such as Persian (it is called Zero-Width Non Jointer) and joins different parts of a single word, when you don't want it get separated when word-wrapping happens. E.g., the following word contains a ZWNJ: میروم
Since it is a very common character for some languages it may happen usually that somebody changes the keyboard language accidentally and enter it without purpose.

REST API Reference
This document lists all API methods, and details the authentication mechanism. Unless you're writing a library you may wish to consult the server API overview instead.
The API is hosted at http://api.pusherapp.com, and may be accessed via HTTP or HTTPS.
All requests MUST be authenticated, as described below.
Parameters MUST be submitted in the query string for GET requests. For POST requests, parameters MAY be submitted in the query string, but SHOULD be submitted in the POST body as a JSON hash (while setting Content-Type: application/json
HTTP status codes are used to indicate the success or otherwise of requests. The following status are common:
Code | Description |
200 | Successful request. Body will contain a JSON hash of response data |
400 | Error: details in response body |
401 | Authentication error: response body will contain an explanation |
403 | Forbidden: app disabled or over message quota |
Other status codes are documented under the appropriate APIs.
An event consists of a name and data (typically JSON) which may be sent to all subscribers to a particular channel or channels. This is conventionally known as triggering an event.
POST event (trigger an event)
POST /apps/[app_id]/events
Triggers an event on one or more channels.
The event data should not be larger than 10KB. If you attempt to POST an event with a larger data parameter you will receive a 413 error code. If you have a use case which requires a larger messages size please get in touch.
Parameter | Description |
name | Event name (required) |
data | Event data (required) - limited to 10KB |
channels | Array of one or more channel names - limited to 10 channels |
channel | Channel name if publishing to a single channel (can be used instead of channels) |
socket_id | Excludes the event from being sent to a specific connection (see excluding recipients) |
Successful response
The event has been received and will be send asynchronously to all sockets. Response is an empty JSON hash.
Channels are identified by name and are used to determine which messages are delivered to which clients. Security may be added by using private or presence channels (identified by name prefix). Channels are created and destroyed automatically whenever clients subscribe or unsubscribe.
GET channels (fetch info for multiple channels)
GET /apps/[app_id]/channels
Allows fetching a hash of occupied channels (optionally filtered by prefix), and optionally one or more attributes for each channel.
Parameter | Description |
filter_by_prefix | Filter the returned channels by a specific prefix. For example in order to return only presence channels you would set filter_by_prefix=presence- |
info | A comma separated list of attributes which should be returned for each channel. If this parameter is missing, an empty hash of attributes will be returned for each channel. |
Available info attributes
Attribute | Type | Applicable channels | Description |
user_count | Integer | Presence | Number of distinct users currently subscribed to this channel (a single user may be subscribed many times, but will only count as one) |
If an attribute such as user_count
is requested, and the request is not limited to presence channels, the API will return an error (400 code).
Successful response
Returns a hash of channels mapping from channel name to a hash of attributes for that channel (maybe empty)
"channels": {
"presence-foobar": {
user_count: 42
"presence-another": {
user_count: 123
GET channel (fetch info for one channel)
GET /apps/[app_id]/channels/[channel_name]
Fetch one or some attributes for a given channel.
Parameter | Description |
info | A comma separated list of attributes which should be returned for the channel. See the table below for a list of available attributes, and for which channel types. |
Available info attributes
Attribute | Type | Applicable channels | Description |
user_count | Integer | Presence | Number of distinct users currently subscribed to this channel (a single user may be subscribed many times, but will only count as one) |
subscription_count | Integer | All | [BETA] Number of connections currently subscribed to this channel. This attribute is not available by default; please contact email@example.com if you would like to beta test this feature. |
Requesting an attribute which is not available for the requested channel will return an error (for example requesting a the user_count
for a public channel).
Successful response
Returns a hash describing the state of the channel. The occupied status is always reported, as well as any requested attributes.
occupied: true,
user_count: 42,
subscription_count: 42
GET users
GET /apps/[app_id]/channels/[channel_name]/users
Fetch user ids currently subscribed to a presence channel. This functionality is primarily aimed to complement presence webhooks, by allowing the initial state of a channel to be fetched.
Note that only presence channels
allow this functionality, and a request to any other kind of channel will result in a 400 HTTP code.
No additional parameters needed or allowed.
Successful response
Returns an array of subscribed users ids
"users": [
{ "id": 1 },
{ "id": 2 }
HTTP Keep-Alive
The Pusher API supports HTTP Keep-Alive. HTTP client libraries that implement this feature are able to re-use a single TCP connection to send multiple HTTP requests thus avoiding the overhead of the TCP connection (typically 100-200ms) between each subsequent request.
In scenarios where many requests are sent at the same time this can improve the throughput and decrease the load on the machine that is sending those requests.
The following query parameters must be included with all requests, and are used to authenticate the request
auth_key | Your application key |
auth_timestamp | The number of seconds since January 1, 1970 00:00:00 GMT. The server will only accept requests where the timestamp is within 600s of the current time |
auth_version | Authentication version, currently 1.0 |
body_md5 | If the request body is nonempty (for example for POST requests to `/events`), this parameter must contain the hexadecimal MD5 hash of the body |
Once all the above parameters have been added to the request, a signature is calculated
auth_signature | Authentication signature, described below |
Generating authentication signatures
The signature is a HMAC SHA256 hex digest. This is generated by signing a string made up of the following components concatenated with newline characters \n
- The uppercase request method (e.g.
) - The request path (e.g.
) - The query parameters sorted by key, with keys converted to lowercase, then joined as in the query string. Note that the string must not be url escaped (e.g. given the keys
:Something else
, you getauth_key=foo&name=Something else
See below for a worked example.
Worked authentication example
Assume that we wish to trigger the foo
event on the project-3
channel with JSON {"some":"data"}
and that our app credentials are
app_id 3
key 278d425bdf160c739803
secret 7ad3773142a6692b25b8
The request url is
Since this is a POST request, the body should contain a hash of parameters encoded as JSON where the data parameter is itself JSON encoded:
Note that these parameters may be provided in the query string, although this is discouraged.
Authentication parameters should be added (assume that these are included in the query string, so the body is unchanged from above). Since the body is non-empty a body_md5 parameter should be added
auth_key 278d425bdf160c739803
auth_timestamp 1353088179
auth_version 1.0
body_md5 ec365a775a4cd0599faeb73354201b6f
The signature is generated by signing the following string
This should be signed by generating the HMAC SHA256 hex digest with secret key 7ad3773142a6692b25b8
. This yields the following signature
The api request then becomes
POST /apps/3/events?auth_key=278d425bdf160c739803&auth_timestamp=1353088179&auth_version=1.0&body_md5=ec365a775a4cd0599faeb73354201b6f&auth_signature=da454824c97ba181a32ccc17a72625ba02771f50b50e1e7430e47a1f3f457e6c HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: application/json
Or using curl:
$ curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"name":"foo","channels":["project-3"],"data":"{\"some\":\"data\"}"}' "http://api.pusherapp.com/apps/3/events?auth_key=278d425bdf160c739803&auth_timestamp=1353088179&auth_version=1.0&body_md5=ec365a775a4cd0599faeb73354201b6f&auth_signature=da454824c97ba181a32ccc17a72625ba02771f50b50e1e7430e47a1f3f457e6c"

Title: | Influence of Coaxial-Rod- and Coaxial-Blade-Type Baffles on Bed Expansion in Gas-Solid Fluidization |
Authors: | Kumar, A Roy, G K |
Issue Date: | 2002 |
Publisher: | Elsevier |
Citation: | Powder Technology,126, Pages 91-95, 2002 |
Abstract: | Bed expansion data were obtained for unbaffled and two different types of baffled (coaxial rod and coaxial blade) gas-solid fluidized beds for varying operating parameters: fluid mass velocity, particle size, density and initial static bed heights. Correlations have been developed for the prediction of bed expansion. For this, the values of minimum fluidization mass velocity and settling mass velocity (Gs, considered as hindered settling) have been calculated with the help of available equations. The correlations developed are modified versions of those of Beranek and Sokol, where mass velocity ratio has been used in place of velocity |

- Publisher: Deep Silver
- Release Date: Apr 16, 2013
- Also On: PC, Xbox 360
- Summary: Sacred Citadel lets you and your friends join the resistance in order to defeat the evil Ashen empire that has enslaved its population and is using the orc-like Grimmoc to wipe out the Seraphim, who swore to protect it.

Score distribution:
Positive: 1 out of 16
Mixed: 14 out of 16
Negative: 1 out of 16
Apr 26, 2013Sacred Citadel is a beat-'em-up game for those who just want to relax and blow off steam for an hour.
Apr 23, 2013The easy move set, complemented by the addition of a dodge roll; combined with the Action RPG elements and encased by really good local and online ease of entry make for a truly fun title to keep any player busy for at least an afternoon.
May 6, 2013Sacred Citadel is a good title, even though it left us a little dubious in terms of the storyline, as the wanting to propose itself as a "prelude" to the future Sacred 3 has proved rather inconclusive.
Apr 28, 2013Sacred Citadel is a decent 2D action platformer, with good RPG elements. It pails in comparison with the likes of Golden Axe, Castle Crashers, Konami's X-Men, Streets of Rage, and others, but it is some cheap fun.
May 7, 2013Sacred Citadel is the prequel to Sacred 3 and, judging by its parts, should be a great game. However, it doesn't completely succeed. The fighting system is fun, but the amount of combo's is lacking. The game lacks challenge and the story originality. Thus, unfortunately, Sacred Citadel isn't more than the sum of its parts. If you absolutely want to get it, play it in co-op.
Apr 18, 2013In a point somewhere between the masterpiece D&D: Tower of Doom and the nightmarish Double Dragon 2: Wander of the Dragons is where we could situate this Sacred Citadel, a spin off that will be preparing the way for its older brother Sacred 3. Visually vibrant and colourful in a comic-esque style, it's a shame that its walkthrough seems like a rollercoaster, with great, funny playable action parts and others boring or insanely harder. Give it a try if King of Dragons means something for you. Definitely get it if you planned to play it in coop with a couple of friends, the greatest element of the whole game and its reason to be.
Apr 24, 2013Even though Sacred Citadel isn't an offensively bad game by any stretch, I find it hard to say anything positive about it. Sure, it can be pretty, isn't frustrating and works on a base level. But that's about it. Every mechanic is half-baked and heedlessly thrown in.

End-of-life LED billboards are a rich source of scrap metals.
April 22, 2011—Earth Day—a tornado in the St. Louis area toppled a 14-foot-by-48-foot digital billboard, raising a question about this new large-format electronics product: What happens to digital billboards that are damaged beyond repair or that reach obsolescence?
As a result of the experience in St. Louis, the outdoor advertising industry has learned that almost the entire unit can be recycled. Some parts are reused, and a fraction—less than 2 percent—is disposed of at certified facilities.
"Recycling is more practical than the landfill," sums up Rod Wardle, vice president at digital billboard manufacturer Young Electric Sign Co. (YESCO) in Logan, Utah. "The landfill is not a smart man's option."
A Red Herring Nationwide, there are up to 400,000 billboards. Paper and glue are giving way to polyethylene (PE) large-format printed materials. More than 4 million pounds of used billboard ads were recycled from 2009 through mid-2011.
In the last decade, some 2,400 billboards have been converted to digital displays containing LED lights. Color static images rotate every six, eight or 10 seconds, depending on state and local rules.
Advertisers like the flexibility, and government is using this new communications platform to deliver emergency messages and to find fugitives and abducted children.
Like most electronics products, digital billboards wear out eventually. All stakeholders—regulators, the billboard industry and anti-sign critics—wondered about the fate of digital billboards once they had fulfilled their useful lives.
In a report released in 2010, an anti-sign group based in Philadelphia raised the specter of "an abundance of difficult-to-recycle, discarded technology." To illustrate the group's point, this widely circulated report, "Illuminating the Issues" by Gregory Young, featured a photo of out-of-date cathode-ray-tube monitors with the caption: "Could digital signage one day face a similar fate?"
This scary question turned out to be a red herring.
Earth Day Lesson The April 22 tornado in St. Louis created a real-life test scenario. Could a local billboard crew in the American heartland disassemble a digital billboard and could the parts be recycled?
In the parlance of the outdoor advertising industry, the digital billboard that was damaged by the tornado is known as a "back-to-back" sign, or two displays on a monopole that face both directions of traffic. The billboard's owner (Lamar Advertising Co.) transported these two damaged digital displays to its company-owned shop in Hannibal, Mo.
Local Lamar crews successfully dismantled the components. Working with the sign manufacturer (Daktronics), they took these steps:
The cost to dismantle a digital billboard can be offset by the income from recycling, according to Daktronics' experience.
Local Options Looking across the country, Ripp says damaged or obsolete digital billboards can be recycled in most areas.
"We now know we can disassemble the product, and recyclers will take the scrap," he says.
"Recycling locally can be a logical choice," says Jerry Young, Daktronics billboard account manager. "Most local recyclers will provide services to pick up materials after they have been dismantled. Recycling locally can save freight costs if recycling service providers can be found in the area."
He adds, "The result of recycling is a check after the recycler has weighed all the materials."
In some cases, a billboard manufacturer may opt to haul the damaged boards from the display location back to its facility for dismantling.
In the Phoenix area, four Clear Channel Outdoor digital billboards made by YESCO were damaged beyond repair by hail in 2010. YESCO delivered new digital billboards to Phoenix to replace the hail-damaged units, says Lou Musica, senior vice president for domestic digital at Clear Channel Outdoor. On the return trip, the trucks hauled the damaged billboards back to Utah to be dismantled and recycled.
Financially, this sort of transaction is a wash, or the manufacturer may lose a few dollars. But, consider the alternative: the undesirable prospect of digital billboards headed to landfills.
"These signs weigh up to 9,000 pounds," Wardle says. "It's more expensive to take a digital billboard to a landfill than it is to recycle it."
