Posted in reply to Benji Smith
Benji suggested run-time inheritance and at least from a design perspective I like some of his thoughts. I've got a few questions though: a) people here said that a virtual call will make it slow. How much slow? how much of an overhead is it on modern hardware considering also that this is a place where hardware manufacturers spend time on optimizations? b) can't a string class use implicit casts and maybe some sugar to pretend to be a regular array in such a way to avoid that virtual call and still be useful? you already can do array.func(...) instead of func(array, ...) so this can be used with a string class that implicitly converts to a char array.. C) compile-time interfaces? (aka concepts)

Yes. It's just that template constraints came along later than
std.string.cmp :-)

Virtual function calls have been a problem for hardware optimization.
Direct function calls can be speculatively executed, but not virtual
ones, because the hardware cannot predict where it will go. This means
virtual calls can be much slower than direct function calls.

So, I was thinking about the actual costs involved with the String class and CharSequence interface design that I'd like to see (and that exists in languages like Java and C#). There's the cost of the class wrapper itself, the cost of internally representing and converting between encodings, the cost of routing all method calls through an interface vtable. Characters, if always represented using two bytes, would consume twice the memory. And returning characters from method-calls has got to be slower than accessing them directly from arrays. Right? So I wrote some tests, in Java and in D/Tango. The source code files are attached. Both of the tests perform a common set of string operations (searching, splitting, concatenating, and character-iterating). I tried to make the functionality as identical as possible, though I wasn't sure which technique to use for splitting text in Tango, so I used both the "Util.split" and "Util.delimit" functions. I ran both tests using a 5MB text file, "The Complete Works of William Shakespeare", from the Project Gutenberg website: http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/etext94/shaks12.txt You can grab it for yourself, or you can just run the code against your favorite large text file. I compiled and ran the Java code in the 1.6.0_06 JDK, with the "-server" flag. The d code was compiled with DMD 1.034 and Tango 0.99.7, using the "-O -release -inline" flags. My test machine is an AMD Turion 64 X2 dual-core laptop, with 2GB of RAM and running WinXP SP3. I ran the tests eight times each, using fine-resolution timers. These are the median results: LOADING THE FILE INTO A STRING: D/Tango wins, by 428% D/Tango: 0.02960 seconds Java: 0.12675 seconds ITERATING OVER CHARS IN A STRING: Java wins, by 280% D/Tango: 0.10093 seconds Java: 0.03599 seconds SEARCHING FOR A SUBSTRING: D/Tango wins, by 218% D/Tango: 0.02251 seconds Java: 0.04915 seconds SEARCH & REPLACE INTO A NEW STRING: D/Tango wins, by 226% D/Tango: 0.17685 seconds Java: 0.39996 seconds SPLIT A STRING ON WHITESPACE: Java wins, by 681% (against tango.text.Util.delimit()) Java wins, by 313% (against tango.text.Util.split()) D/Tango (delimit): 8.28195 seconds D/Tango (split): 3.80465 seconds Java (split): 1.21477 seconds CONCATENATING STRINGS: Java wins, by 884% D/Tango (array concat, no pre-alloc): 4.07929 seconds Java (StringBuilder, no pre-alloc): 0.46150 seconds SORT STRINGS (CASE-INSENSITIVE): D/Tango wins, by 226% D/Tango: 1.62227 seconds Java: 3.66389 seconds It looks like D mostly falls down when it has to allocate a lot of memory, even if it's just allocating slices. The D performance for string splitting really surprised me. I was interested to see, though, that Java was so much faster at iterating through the characters in a string, since I used the charAt(i) method of the CharSequence interface, rather than directly iterating through a char[] array, or even calling the charAt method on the String instance. And yet, character iteration is almost 3 times as fast as in D. Down with premature optimization! Design the best interfaces possible, to enable the most pleasant and flexible programing idioms. The performance problems can be solved. :-P --benji

Cool. I had no idea that was possible. I was doing this:

Basically, yeah. With three different character types, and two different array types (static & dynamic). And in D2, with const, invariant, and mutable types (and soon with shared and unshared), the number of ways of representing a "string" in the type-system is overwhelming. This afternoon, I was writing some string-processing code that I intend to distribute in a library, and I couldn't but help thinking to myself "This code is probably broken, for anything but the most squeaky-clean ASCII text". I don't mind that there are different character types, or that there are different character encodings. But I want to deal with those issues in exactly *one* place: in my string constructor (and, very rarely, during IO). But 99% of the time, I want to just think of the object as a String, with all the ugly details abstracted away. >> Another good low-hanging argument is that strings are frequently used >> as keys in associative arrays.

The hashcode-memoization thing was really just a catalyst to get me thinking.

I should clarify that my referring to an "interface" was in the informal sense. (Though I think actual interfaces would be a reasonable solution.) But any sort of contract between text-data-structures and text-processing-routines would fit the bill nicely. >> But then again, I haven't used any of the const functionality in D2, >> so I can't actually comment on relative usability of compiler-enforced >> immutability versus interface-enforced immutability. > > From my own experience, I didn't 'get' invariant strings until I'd used > them for a while. I actually kind of think I'm on the other side of the issue. I've been primarily a Java programmer (8 years) and secondarily a C# programmer (3 years), so immutable Strings are the only thing I've ever used. Lots of the other JDK classes are like that, too. So, from my perspective, it seems like the ideal, low-impact way of enforcing immutability is to have the classes enforce it on themselves. I've never felt the need for compiler-enforced const semantics in any of the work I've done. Thanks for your replies! I always appreciate hearing from you. --benji

Modern x86 branch prediction treats indirect calls the same as conditional
branches. They get a slot in the branch target buffer, so they do get
speculatively executed. And if correctly predicted it's only a couple of
cycles more costly direct calls.
See the thread "Feature Request: nontrivial functions and vtable
optimizations" about 2 weeks ago.
I cited the technical docs and a few doubters ran benchmarks, which proved
that virtual methods are not as evil as many people think. In fact they are
no more evil than a conditional branch.

You didn't ask for an O(1) opIndex on a linked list. You asked for a correct opIndex on a linked list. Any sorting algorithm you name that would work on an array would also work on this linked list.

They expose very similar interfaces. You might care about which you choose because of the efficiency of various operations, but most of your code won't care which type it gets; it would still be correct.

String splitting requires lot of work for the GC. The GC of HotSpot is light years ahead of the current D GC. You can see that measuring just the time the D GC takes to deallocate a large array of the splitted substrings.

Really? I must have missed those conclusions then, despite reading all the posts on the subject. What solutions do you propose for the problem then? I recall that disabling the GC didn't improve the situation much. So the problem now becomes how to improve the D GC?
In my site I am keeping a gallery of tiny benchmarks where D code (with DMD) is 10 or more times slower than very equivalent Python, C, Java code (I have about 12 programs so far, very different from each other. There's a benchmark regarding the associative arrays too). Hopefully it will become useful once people will start tuning D implementations.

One of the interesting things about tanking is how the rest of the group automatically defers to you.
I've ran Gnomeregan a fair bit, and now know the easiest way to get to the boss with a minimum of fuss.1 When I'm on my tank, the group falls in behind me and we move through the instance smoothly.
On the other hand, when I'm on my rogue, generally people don't know which way to go, and the group stops for discussion. I can tell them the way to go, but they never seem to listen to me. Half the time we go in a crazy direction, and the group never makes it to the end boss. This happens even I am the nominal Party Leader.
Generally, my tank is perceived to have much more authority than my rogue, even though there's not a lot of difference between the two characters. It's like WoW players are trained to defer to the tanks.
Maybe it's just that the tank goes in first. Maybe being the first person in the battle confers an aura of leadership, in the style of ancient generals and kings.
I find the automatic mantle of authority to be a very interesting part of tanking, even if I'm not completely sure why the tank is assumed to be in charge.
1. Generally, always go left, and don't jump down. Jumping down with an inexperienced group inevitably causes more problems than it's worth.

This document lays out the development priorities and plans for the GumTree software version 1.6. The aim of this plan is to provide an overview of works that are committed in the current development iteration cycle. This is a living document and is subject to change based on the project priority.
The overall theme for version 1.6.x is about cleaner design and improving user experience. The aim is to create a software stack that helps to produce science more quickly. A number of infrastructural tasks, including new better GumTree middleware support, will run in background. Version 1.6.x will set a new milestone for the GumTree development.
Release Schedule
The deployment date of GumTree software for individual instrument is depended upon reactor cycle and instrument maintenance schedule. However, the release date for the GumTree Platform (or the base NBI target for development) should be fixed, so that the development process is agile (with short iteration) and predictable.
At the end each final release, a change log and brief new feature description must be supplied with the artifacts. After each iteration, a new target will be produced for internal development use, and all developers need to sync with this latest target. Developers will need to meet together for quick briefing on the new features introduced in each iteration.
Each release is set to 4 months long, with 1 week planning, four 3 week long iteration, and 3 week endgame (final integration test, documentation and release work). All phases may be adjustable to fit operation needs, but we usually do not encourage this.
However, due to the build process refactoring, our release schedule has been modified. This release will feature 5 major releases with 8 month release schedule.
Planning: 7th March 2011 - 1st April 2011 (4 week)
Technology Investigation: 4th April 2011 - 29th April 2011 (4 week)
Iteration 0: 2nd May 2011 - 3rd June 2011 (4 week) - version 1.6.0
Iteration 1: 6th June 2011 - 1st July 2011 (4 week) - version 1.6.1
Iteration 2: 4th July 2011 - 19th July 2011 (4 week) - version 1.6.2
Iteration 3: 1st August 2011 - 26th August 2011 (4 week) - version 1.6.3
Iteration 4: 29th August 2011 - 23rd September 2011 (4 week) - version 1.6.4
Endgame: 26th September 2011 - 14th October 2011 (3 week) - version 1.6.5 (official 1.6.x release)
Instrument Specific Themes
An instrument theme is a high level task description on what use requirement we need to fulfil for this release of GumTree. Those requirements come from instrument scientists meeting, instrument maintenance jobs (software bug fixes), and refactoring tasks for making software maintainable.
- Update UI of the experiment workbench required by users - Iteration 0. (GUMTREE-624, GUMTREE-623)
- Provide preference page for user to do customisation - Iteration 0. (GUMTREE-621, GUMTREE-622)
- Make batch processing available in analysis workbench - Iteration 1-2. (GUMTREE-472, GUMTREE-620)
- Try using python/jython script in data analysis. Provide basic python wrapper library for GDM and VIS components. - Iteration 4
- Provide updates for UI of the experiment workbench. This may require deep level of library to be updated, for example Workflow UI. - Iteration 3-4 (GUMTREE-444, GUMTREE-466, GUMTREE-483, GUMTREE-485)
- Status display. (GUMTREE-137)
No scheduled plan for Platypus in this version.

Queens Uses a Hat Trick to Slide Past Men's Soccer 4-0
September 19, 2009
Story Courtesy of Queens Sports Information
CHARLOTTE, N.C. Newcomer Bryan White (Delmar, N.Y., Bethlehem Central) scored three goals for the Royals this afternoon leading them past the Falcons of Pfeiffer University. Queens University of Charlotte blanked Pfeiffer 4-0 in the game improving their record to 3-2 overall and 1-1 in conference play. The Falcons fall to 3-3 overall and are 1-1 in conference play as well.
The Royals must have heard a great motivational speech from Head Coach Fred Norchi at the half as they came out ready to play scoring all four of their goals in the latter half of the game. Bryan White was first to tally a goal scoring 15 seconds into the half. He followed that up with a breakaway goal at the 57th minute. Logan Berrier (Easton, Md., Saints Peter & Paul ) scored goal number three for the Royals at the 56th minute of play. Forsan Radwan (Richmond, Va., James River) slid him the ball on the left side and Berrier flicked it over the Falcons goalie. Radwan was not finished helping out his teammates as he assisted Whites third goal of the night also. With a cross from the left side of the field, White plowed the ball in to the back of the net.
The Falcons outshot the Queens 22 to 16, but goalie Chris Raines (Aurora, Colo., Cherokee Trail) was tough to get any ball past today. He recorded 10 saves for the Royals to earn his shut out for the afternoon. This is Raines third shutout of the season.
Renato Barbosa led the Falcons in shots with seven while Johannes Tisell had three.

The 1000 denier nylon Cordura fabric works perfectly for these dummies, because it resists the growth of mold, repels water and is great for holding scents while training your retriever. The interior of the dummy has a full stainless steel core for a longer life than other dummy launcher systems on the market.

Diners with a taste for pasta, pizza and other Italian fare will be able to satisfy that desire beginning Monday. That's when Everyday Italian will be opening.
Partners Ahmed Hamed and Manager Abdel Mohamed have been renovating the former Billy's Drive-in building at 3647 Vernon Ave. The new owners bring several years of cooking and pizza-making experience to Kinston.
Hamed, from Jordan, has been working in Italian restaurants in Roanoke, Va., and Greensboro for the last 10 years, upon arriving in the U.S.
Mohamed, a native of Egypt, has lived in the U.S. 16 years and worked with Hamed in Greensboro. More recently, he owned a restaurant of the same name for seven years in Newport. A Snow Hill customer, Tony Cobb, found the building in Kinston and suggested he move here.
Cobb said he often would stop at the Everyday Italian in Newport to eat when traveling to the beach.
"The food is great," he said. "I love the lasagna there, and (Mohamed) does a grilled chicken breast that's good."
Cobb said his favorite is the lasagna, but he likes the Alfredo sauce, too.
The menu features pastas; subs; New York style and Sicilian pan pizzas; chicken, veal, seafood and eggplant hot plates; calzones and Stromboli; salads, including Greek; buffalo wings; appetizers; and cheesecake. There will be daily specials.
"It's, like, traditional Italian," Mohamed said.
The restaurant, with its Italian décor, offers a semi-casual setting suitable for families. High chairs and a children's menu are available.
There is seating for up to 150 people, including a separate room for groups up to 60 people. Carry-out is also available.
Everyday Italian will be open starting Monday from 10:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 10:30 a.m. to 11 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays. For information or to place an order, call 252-686-8000/8001.
Nolan McNabb isn't a new barber or even new to Kinston Barber Shop, but he is the new owner. He bought the business and building from Larry Malpass, who retired Dec. 29 after 48 years of barbering.
McNabb came from his native Ontario, Canada, in 2000 to marry a Kinston girl he met online. He worked as a framer and cabinet maker until he began to have thoughts about a profession much familiar to him when he was growing up in Canada.
"The seed was planted when I was very young," he said, "because my dad was a barber."
When he heard about a barber school that opened in Greenville, he started attending. He graduated from Motivation and earned his barber license in 2005.
His second barbering job was working for Malpass at the shop he now owns. There, he worked for a time under Roger Stancil, now deceased. Stancil was a motivator for McNabb and taught him beyond the basic skills — the art of barbering.
"Being able to apprentice under (Stancil) was very inspirational," he said.
The 31-year-old has one employee, Corey Barrow, 24, who has been barbering for three years. The two barbers offer classic hot shaves and haircuts.
"I like the fact that I get to talk to people every day," McNabb said, "— you know, different aspects of life. … I also enjoy the artistic side of cutting hair."
McNabb plans to renovate the inside of the shop and bring it back to the original brick walls, concrete floor and tongue-and-groove ceiling, and add flat-screen televisions.
"Just make it a classy little spot," he said.
The new hours of Kinston Barber Shop, 102 W. Peyton Ave., are 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Tuesday through Fridays and 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturdays. For information, call 252-527-1381.

hmm interesting post. Do not know the answers myself and intrigued to see the suggestions of others.
I would like it chilly from top to dry down.
While I don't like florals/fruity scents, I think in addition to buttery florals, I might enjoy really camphorous ones so if you also recall florals or fruity florals with menthol/camphor thing going on from top to dry down, do share. I don't want to smell like vapor rub but then again, I have never associated the bold, pure and chilly camphor smell with vapor rub/muscle balm. I am convinced these are two completely different odors :P.
Please don't limit yourself to these floral/fruity category. I thought I should put them out there.
I am a female in my twenties who tends to favour dry, mysterious unisex scents if this makes any difference but either ways, please do share whatever you can think of that is chilly and camphorous all the way . Thanks .
hmm interesting post. Do not know the answers myself and intrigued to see the suggestions of others.
This. When I first applied it to my wrist and inhaled the scent deeply, I thought it burned out my nasal passage with a powerful camphorous chill. Once I learned how not to overapply it, it became one of my absolute favourites. Elegant, airy, woody, sweet, resinous and mysterious with a capital "M"
My nose is not very experienced but I find Body Kouros to be quite chilly/icy...
Issey Miyake L'Eau Bleue Eau Fraiche
Lacoste Booster
Maybe Thierry Mugler Ice Men?
Coldest fragrances....
I'd give some recommendations to..
L'eau D'iver
Geranium Pour Monsieur
Hugo XY
Live Jazz
No camphor, but icy and chilly it is:
De Bachmakov
Eau de Parfum
by The Different Company
Luckyscents description is perfect:
The Scoop
In a tribute to his Russian ancestry and to celebrate the year of Russia in France, the Different Company's co-founder (with Jean-Claude Ellena) and renowned designer Thierry de Baschmakoff joined forces with the perfumer Céline Ellena to compose the fragrance which bears his name. De Bachmakov is not a literal evocation of Russia, but a poetic fugue on the magical moment when snow begins to melt on the steppes and the earth gives way to the rites of spring; on the first rays of sun to touch the Siberian forests swept by winds from Asia.
The fragrance is as limpid and bracing as a shot of ice-cold vodka: along with peppery, aromatic bergamot, the lemony, anise-tinged shiso leaves and tangy, zesty cilantro lend their green, aldehydic fizziness to the blend, sweetened by a sprinkle of nutmeg. Freesia and its tender, white floral notes add a jasmine richness to the heart: as the fragrance evolves, its limpidity gives way to a surprising chalk accord produced by a blend of woody notes and musk.
De Bachmakov is sap and snow and the first spring flowers: a cool herbal potion brewed near the Arctic Circle. It is also the very gifted Céline Ellena's last composition for The Different Company: all the more reason to snap up this gorgeous and truly unique fragrance.
De Bachmakov Notes
Cedar wood, bergamot, shiso leaves, nutmeg, coriander leaves, white freesia, soft chalk accord
White Cristalle by Killian
With the chill of an arctic breeze: Mont Blanc Individuel (Mens)
Piper Nigrum Villoresi
my current top five (always in transition)
Dior Eau Noire
HdP 1725 Casanova
eau de gloire parfum d'empire
Dia man Amouage
comme des garçons man 2
+ 1 for Ice Men Thierry Mugler
Geranium by Malle
The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education.
I was thinking Geranium Pour Monsieur by Frederic Malle, also. VERY intensely minty, however the geranium adds a bit of flower/skankiness to it. Very hard to describe, you have to smell it. Still...it's not very camphorous.
Two others spring to mind:
Scent One: Hinoki by Monocle x Comme des Garcons and Spirit of The Tiger by Heeley (inspired by the smell of Tiger Balm ointment)
"All problems are illusions of the mind."
-- Eckhart Tolle
My current chill-out fragrance: Dior Dune Homme.
Also love the ecalyptus opening of Body Kouros: magical!
I like cool/camphorous scents as well!
I'm wearing Eau de Lalique today, and it is cool, fresh, peppery, and dry with an herby edge (I smell dill and tarragon) that remains all the way through the drydown...I'd say definitely check it out. Not a lot of discussion about this one, but it's very good quality and can be had at a great price.
I wanna say something. Im gonna put it out there. If you like it, you can take it, if you dont, send it right back ."
I really enjoy the frozen Pears in Higher (Dior) (original - not Energy edition) and am thinking of making this my summer scent for 2011.
Stop your search. Right here. Kouros Eau d'Ete.
I'm a fresh scent junkie and proud of it!
Cool and icy= Green Water
Silver Mountain Water
Platinum Egoiste
As for the Mint scents: Selection Verte, Oxford & Cambridge, Green Valley, Heeley Menthe Fraiche, Lacoste Booster, Fath Green Water, Live Jazz, Malle Geranium, Molinard Double Fraicheur, L'Eau De L'Artisan, CDG peppermint
As for camphoraceous scents: Windsor I, Tubereuse Criminelle, Spirit of the Tiger, Body Kouros (sorta), Lacoste Booster (kinda), Oxford & Cambridge (Kinda)
BN sales: http://www.basenotes.net/threads/300...avidoff-Bombay.
Off-BN sales (super rare CREED): http://flacon.ambaric.net/viewtopic.php?t=95
Cool Water Frozen smells and feels icy.
Although not camphorous, Chanel No. 19 is a bit chilly, and a huge 5 star masterpiece IMO.
Fresh Chilly BUT minty Lorenzo Villoressi - Spezie
Kenzo pour Homme
Solo Loewe
Quartz by Moulyneux
Camphor notes : Rosemary / Cypress or Hinoki / Nagarmotha
Chanel Egoiste is the most frutty of the list
Camphor / chilly / Ice Cube :
Nicole Forhi Homme
Looking for Creed Spice & Wood / swap fragances , Creed Vingate Tabarome and more... http://www.basenotes.net/threads/374...me-Cuir-Beluga
I think my coldest fragrance is Chrome, but Nickel Eau Maximum is a close second.
smw before it was reformulated......Damn it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My fave is Histoire de Parfum-Jules Verne. Its chilly
Cheers Rex
It was a calculated risk. Unfortunately, I'm bad at math.
Wow! You guys are amazing! Thank you so sooo much for all your great suggestions!! .
While at it, you may sample M Micallef's Shanaan. This has more of a mineralic (a la Molyneux Quartz pour Homme mentioned above), rather than camphorous feel in what is one of the most beautiful frankincense/amber frags around. Feels icy, in a very nice way.
ointments and perfume delight the heart....
Campho is one of my favorite note, from what i tried:
SL -Tubéreuse criminelle : he's been reformulated now and it's more fruity less camphoreous than before, but still a good candidate.
SL - Un Lys only the vintage (rectangular bottle is ok), less evident but i smell the pistil odor of a white flower, if you already smelled a real lys flower you can imagine
Non florals with camphor:
SMN - Pot pourri
SL - Serge noire: smoke, incens, pepper, clove and camphor
Taaruf by Musk International. It comes in oil form. Until it dries down , the fragrance is camphorous to the point that it burns the nose.
Silver Mountain Water, always gives me a cold stream in the mountains drinking tea feeling.
Tried it for the first time yesterday - heavy on camphorous notes: Jack Black "JB" - sold only at Nordstrom. Certainly worth a try if you want camphorous.
Sorry it's Santa Maria Novella (perfume house) - pot pourri :-)Can you give me the full name for this? Nothing comes up in a search using the above. Thanks

Not only is the charity backed by a powerful U.S. senator, but the investigation reveals that its funds have been siphoned off to bankroll terrorist cells in black list countries, and Sydney fears the consequences.
And it may already be too late. Death has crossed the border from Mexico and is now heading toward Washington, D.C. Time is rapidly running out—and unless Sydney and her partner, Zachary Griffin, can get to the root of a monstrous conspiracy, untold thousands will die in a nuclear nightmare and a nation will be reduced to chaos.

Child custody and parenting time can become an issue in many ways, including:
Under Minnesota law, there are two types of child custody.
Depending on several factors, parents may share custody, which is often called "joint" physical and/or legal custody. Or, one of them may have "sole" physical and/or legal custody. NOTE: The custody arrangement could be different for each child in a family.
"Joint legal custody" means that both parents share the responsibility for making decisions regarding how to raise the child, including the right to participate in major decisions about the child's education, health care, and religious training.
"Joint physical custody" means that the routine daily care and control and the residence of the child is structured between both of the parents.
"Parenting time," also commonly referred to as "visitation," refers to the time the non-custodial parent spends with a child, regardless of the labels used in the custody arrangement. Parenting time is often set according to a schedule as a result of a court order.
Generally, in order to have your child custody issues decided by a judge in Minnesota, the child must have lived in Minnesota with a parent or a person acting as a parent for at least six (6) consecutive months (180 days) before starting the court process. There are exceptions for emergency situations.
NOTE: If you live in Minnesota but your child lives with the other parent in another state, your case may be more complicated. You can read the law on "interstate custody" online at MN Statutes Ch. 518D. You should talk with a lawyer about where you may be able to file your custody case or modify an existing custody order.
There can be a lot of documents needed in a custody case, especially when the parties do not agree. The court forms involved depend on the type of case or legal issue. Select the link below that most closely describes your situation.
NOTE: Parties can file a "Stipulation" (agreement) with the court if they agree on all custody and parenting time issues. The MN Judicial Branch does not publish sample stipulation forms. You might find sample forms at your local law library or you could talk to a lawyer.
Emergency "ex parte" actions involve one party asking the court for a hearing and/or order without giving advance notice of their request to all other parties involved in the case. The party asking the court to hear a case on an emergency ex parte basis is required to follow several laws and Court Rules, including but not limited to:
The MN Judicial Branch does NOT publish forms to ask the court to hear a custody matter on an emergency ex parte basis. You might find sample forms at your local law library, but we strongly encourage you to talk to a lawyer about your case.
You may represent yourself in court, but we stronly encourage you to get legal advice from an attorney, especially if the parties do not agree on custody, parenting time, or child support. Also read Can I Represent Myself in Court or Do I Need a Lawyer? NOTE: If you feel threatened by or unsafe with the other party, you may want to get legal advice or help from an advocate before going to court.
The State of Minnesota has several laws about child custody and parenting time. If you choose to go to court without a lawyer, you are responsible for knowing the laws and rules of court. See Laws, Rules & More Resources on Child Custody & Parenting Time. Be aware that each court in Minnesota may have local rules and procedures for custody cases for that particular court. Contact your local Court Administration about procedures in your court.
Where you go for court will depend on the type of case you have that involves child custody, so if it's a divorce case, you may go to Family Court, but if it's a child protection case, you may go to Juvenile Court. Some courts have only have one courthouse, others have several courthouse locations. Look in the Minnesota Courthouse Directory for contact information.
When parents dispute custody or parenting time (visitation) in court, the law in MN Statutes § 518.157 requires that the parents attend a parenting education class. Depending on the circumstance, the judge may also order that the children attend a class.
The District Courts linked below have information about parenting education classes on their websites. For other court locations, please contact the court administration office to learn about their approved classes.
It costs money to handle custody disputes in court. There are court fees, possible attorneys fees, and other costs. If you are a person with a low income or you receive public assistance, you may qualify for a fee waiver or reduced court fees.

The Sigma 10-20mm F3.5 EX DC HSM, which came out in March 2009, completes Sigma's Pro (EX) line.
This very-wide-angle lens, compatible with APS-C cameras, offers a constant aperture at f/3.5 across the entirety of its focal lengths. And with its HSM (hypersonic motor), it also offers fast focusing.
We've already analyzed the Canon version as part of this review, available here: Sigma 10-20mm F3.5 EX DC HSM Canon review. On paper, this Sigma 10-20 mm f/3.5 is perfect for your indoor shots in which you have limited space to back up, or for capturing wide-open scenery during your vacation.
With an overall DxOMark score of 14, we can say that Sigma 10-20mm F3.5 EX DC HSM Nikon will let you shoot indoors even under relatively low-light conditions. The same Sigma 10-20 mm f/3.5 Canon lens achieves a 12 on the DxOMark scale, thus the two lenses are very close in terms of optical quality.
What is truly remarkable is the consistency of the results: you get the same quality over the entire focal range.
The good points of the Sigma 10-20mm F3.5 EX DC HSM:
The weak point of Sigma 10-20mm F3.5 EX DC HSM:
Points to remember:
The Sigma's results are identical to and sometimes even slightly better than those of the Nikon AF-S DX Nikkor 10-24mm f/3.5-4.5G ED and the Canon EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM.
Overall, this wide-angle zoom has a very good quality-to-price ratio. With its brightness and consistent quality all across the zoom range, this is a great choice for those looking for an ideal APS-C wide-angle lens.
To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.
Announced at PMA 2009, the Sigma 10-20mm F3.5 EX DC HSM Canon wide-angle zoom lens features a constant f/3.5 maximum aperture (EX) and is equipped with a hypersonic motor (HSM).

By ASPCA President and CEO Matt Bershadker
Just last week, authorities in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, along with the ASPCA raided eight crime scenes, seizing 23 suspected fighting dogs. It's a chilling and sad reminder of how prevalent dog fighting is in America today and a further indication of why it was necessary for us to declare April 8 National Dog Fighting Awareness Day.
Even though dog fighting is a felony in all 50 states, the ASPCA's participation in two major multi-state raids in the last year alone refute any claim that dog fighting is a rare activity, or that it's restricted to certain parts of the country or people with whom we wouldn't normally associate.
The truth is dog fighting is not a relic of times past or random, isolated incidents. In addition to last week's Wisconsin dog fighting case, nearly 100 dogs were seized in a multi-state raid just over a year ago across Texas, Missouri and Kansas. Just eight months ago, hundreds of dogs were seized in what is believed to be the second largest dog fighting case in U.S. history across Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia and Texas.
The truth is dog fighting is not a "southern problem." The blood sport has been reported in urban, suburban and rural settings in all regions of the country.
The truth is dog fighting participants represent people you may know. Lawyers, judges, teachers, high school football coaches and veterinary technicians have all been arrested in connection to dog fighting. People involved in dog fighting also span racial and socioeconomic boundaries.
These are the relatively pleasant truths. Unpleasant truths include stories of animals being routinely and viciously attacked, beaten, electrocuted and drowned. They include stories about "rape stands" used for breeding, and "bait dogs" used for fighting practice. Bait dogs are typically stolen pets or dogs that refuse to fight. Their teeth are often removed so that other dogs can practice fighting without getting injured.
As I wrote recently, it's not enough to see dog fighting as just a crime. Society discourages, yet tolerates a number of crimes—some are even glorified. But dog fighting is a deep stain on our national character, a cultural embarrassment we should all feel. This is not about just locking up bad guys; this is about doing everything we can to bring this nightmarish practice to an end. We can't rest until it does.
That's why National Dog Fighting Awareness Day isn't just another way to fill a calendar box; it's a necessary measure to help stop one of the most horrific forms of animal abuse imaginable.
Of course you probably don't know about dog fights going on where you live. But chances are you know some children, and can talk to them about the value animals bring to our lives, as well as the humanity we owe them in return.
Here's what else you can do:
- Go to the National Dog Fighting Awareness Day page on our website
- Join a live panel discussion on Google Hangout
- Watch our new short film "Life on a Chain" (warning: it explicitly shows both horror and hope)
- Take a dog fighting awareness quiz
- See tools and devices found on dog fighting raids
- Learn how you can do more, including fighting for common-sense legislation in your state.
Please tell friends and family about April 8, National Dog Fighting Awareness Day, and help break these chains of suffering.

Your an embarrassment to humane race for not thinking one SHOULD be forgiven if he repents for his mistakes. Mathew, your sicker than he Mike Vick was. Sad but true.
Anyone how supports dog figting is a disgusting piece of crap. I might add rooster fighting on the list. but right now we are talking about mans best friend. and a beautiful loyal one at that. I would chain you up if I could for several days in the rain and snow with no food or water. you deserve it and worse as you are suppose to be a human being. Jim, you are right, this is something they wanted to do. Not made to do. What forgiveness should they have. the dog will. Not me and many others. This has to be stopped and we can do it together. I didnt read about Mathew but maybe not today. Dog fighting is a sick sport. and not to be treated by a doctor. Jail time and the same thing for them. How will they learn?
You're the sick one, Jim. Animal abuse is truly inexcusable, intolerable and disgusting, and YES, IT IS UNFORGIVEABLE!!! There is no repentance for abusing a helpless creature with no choice and no voice. And as far as Micheal Vick goes, he doesn't even deserve to live, and I wish someone would kill the SOB. Would you want your children abused this way?? Same thing. You should never have an animal in your possession~~it sounds to me as if you could be as dangerous as Vick.
Jim, Vick never said he was sorry for what he did to those dogs. He said he was sorry that his family, friends, fans and NFL had to deal with what happened and that he couldn't play football for all of his fans. So Mr. Vick is not sorry for what he did, he is just sorry he got caught, that's why he lied to the police in the first place.

Wondrous Strange
Wondrous Strange (Paperback)
Since the dawn of time, the Faerie have taken. . . .
Seventeen-year-old actress Kelley Winslow always thought faeries were just something from childhood stories. Then she meets Sonny Flannery. He's a changeling—a mortal taken as an infant and raised among Faerie—and within short order he's turned Kelley's heart inside out and her life upside down.
For Kelley's beloved Central Park isn't just a park—it's a gateway between her ordinary city and the Faerie's dangerous, bewitching Otherworld. Now Kelley's eyes are opening not just to the Faerie that surround her, but to the heritage that awaits her . . . a destiny both wondrous and strange.
About the Author
Lesley Livingston is a writer and actress living in Toronto. She has a master's degree in English from the University of Toronto, where she specialized in Arthurian literature and Shakespeare. She is the author of Wondrous strange, which won the Canadian Librarian Association Young Adult Book Award in addition to being a White Pine Honor Book, as well as Darklight and Tempestuous.
Praise for Wondrous Strange…
"This enchanting first novel weaves together the worlds of theater and magic in a way that is sure to please fans of both. Readers will revel in the hints of Shakespeare within the text as they are introduced to faerie creatures both familiar and "wondrous strange."
-School Library Journal
"Kelley is appealingly feisty and stubborn, and her romance with Sonny develops quickly but believably. ... With an ending that promises a sequel, this book will capture readers eager for romance, magic, and suspense."
-ALA Booklist
"Plentiful action, a complex, slow-to-unravel setup, and humorous plot strands (such as the fairy horse that follows Kelley home to live in her bathroom) ensure that the pages keep turning in this clever debut."
-The Horn Book
"Oh, bestselling Twilight, thou hast a strong contender...this book has it all."

The Selecter Biography & News
The Selecter Details

About The Selecter
Selecter celebrates 35th anniversary
The Selecter is celebrating a special anniversary in style.
The ska/two-tone veterans are bringing their 35th anniversary tour down under this October, it was recently announced. The trek will come just days after their first tour of New Zealand, which will stop at Christchurch, Wellington and Auckland. The Australian trip will then include stops in Perth, Adelaide, Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne, with two dates locked in for the capital.
The Selecter say they will perform their classic debut LP "Too Much Pressure" in full at each show, along with a handful of other favorites.
"We thought our 35th anniversary would be the perfect time to revisit our very first album and perform it in full," said Pauline Black a press release. "We can't wait to get on the road to bring our message of multiculturalism from across 4 decades to venues up and down the land. See you there!"
The Selecter will join up with an outfit called The Levellers for portions of the UK tour, with dates that run from October 29th through November 22nd.
Currently, The Selecter are tearing up the festival circuit. They are booked July 27th for the Swarte Cross Festival in the Netherlands, and in August will play the Ska & Mod Festival, the Rebellion Festival, the Bingley Music Festival and the Feelgood Festival in the U.K.
The Selecter offers its "String Theory" (Created May 8, 2013)
How many bands can say they got their big start not on a hit single, but instead on a purely instrumental track? The Selecter can and did, helping out England's Specials for their own debut and spinning off the name into a band.
Formed in 1979, The Selecter features a diverse line-up backed by the songs of Neol Davies, the voice of Pauline Black and Desmond Brown tickling the keys of the Hammond organ. They also had Crompton Amanor and Charles Bainbridge on drums, and Charlie Anderson on bass helping to round out a lineup bolstered by a name which is the Jamaican word for disc jockey.
The band's 1980 album debut featured renowned ska trombonist Rico Rodriguez and was the catalyst to a string of successful singles, including "On My Radio," "Three Minute Hero" and "Missing Words." Despite those songs climbing the charts, Black left in 1981 and recorded her own material before concentrating mostly of acting. She served as a hostess on a game show and was nominated for a Time Out Award for Best Actress in 1990 thanks to her portrayal of Billie Holiday, but ultimately rejoined The Selecter.
It was 1991 by the time a ska revival in London gained traction, and a re-formation of the band culminated in the release of their first new material in more than a decade. Still, Black also continued to perform and release under The Selecter name until 2006, and fans were confused over the competing lineups as late as 2011. That's when Black applied for the trademark and secured the name.
In 2013, The Selecter released a new studio album entitled "String Theory."
