I have considered taking a certification course to teach English. I have only an AA degree in Electronics Technology, but am a native English speaker and have extensive work related world wide travel experience. Being from Texas, U.S.A., some might say I speak with a foreign accent.
I have reviewed several job listings here, particularly for China, and see that they all have age maximums. I am 67 years old, but hadn't considered that as a detrimental factor. Apparently others do.
Is my age going to be an insurmountable problem?
Thanks for any replies.

The pod was more than 7 miles long and 5 miles wide, according to Capt. Joe Dutra of Hornblower Cruises, who spotted the dolphins while sailing his daily tour.
Dutra told NBC San Diego he's never seen anything like it.
"When you see something that is honestly truly beyond belief," Dutra said.
Dutra estimated the pod may have been as large as 100,000 dolphins.
They were coming from all directions, you could see them from as far as the eye can see," he said. "I've seen a lot of stuff out here… but this is the biggest I've ever seen, ever."
Dolphins usually travel in groups of less than 200, but marine mammal expert Sarah Wilkin told NBC the right food source, such as an abundance of squid, herring and sardines, could get such a large number of the animals in the same place.
"They're definitely social animals, they stick together in small groups," she said. "But sometimes, the schools come together."

How to grow vegetables faster
Associated Press / Dean Fosdick
Heirloom tomatoes (rear) can take more than 100 days to ripen, while the smaller cherry tomatoes (foreground) need only 65 days. Grow both varieties to stagger the dates of your harvest.
Associated Press / Dean Fosdick
Many vegetable, such as these beets, offer up their best flavors while young. Other plants best picked when they are young include new potatoes, radishes, baby carrots, zucchini, miniature cucumbers, spring peas and turnips.
But there are ways to shorten the wait.
The easiest is choosing plants that taste best when harvested young.
"The one thing you will miss out on with speedy growing is bulk, but what you will get in return is layers of flavor; a sprinkle of hot and peppery micro-green radish here, a sweet and nutty, barely cooked new potato there, a garnish of cucumbery borage flowers to finish a dish," writes Mark Diacono in the new "The Speedy Vegetable Garden."
"These are the crops that will mark out your cooking as distinctly and unquestionably homegrown," he writes.
Timing is everything.
"Be slow to harvest and you'll miss their best moments," says Diacono, who does his gardening on a 17-acre plot in Devon, England. "These are fresh, lively and zingy flavors, flavors that can either fade or become bitter and overly strong as the plant grows on toward maturity."
Many plants -- notably fruits -- are genetically wired for late development.
"Tomatoes, strawberries and apples all want to be left on the plant until they are fully ripe to get the fullest, lushest flavors out of them," Diacono says. "Vegetables are a little different. Many get woodier, less succulent and lower in sweetness as they grow more mature, so really are at their loveliest picked young."
That would include new potatoes, radishes, baby carrots, zucchini, miniature cucumbers, spring peas, turnips and beets.
Cut-and-come-again salad leaves can be clipped in as little as 21 days. Sprouted seeds (mung beans, mustard, lentils) can become table fare in just three days.
Check the maturity dates on seed packets as you shop. Heirloom tomatoes take 100 days or more to develop while cherry tomatoes need only about 65 days.
The same goes for squash. Winter squash (acorn, butternut) generally require 110 days before they are kitchen-ready. Summer squash (crookneck, zucchini), by comparison, can be eaten in 55 days or less.
There are many ways to jumpstart the growing season so you can be harvesting a meal while other gardeners are just beginning to turn the ground. Among them:
•Choose the warmest site possible if you're planting early. "Even a small change in temperature can make a difference during spring and fall frosts," says Jo Ann Robbins, an extension educator with the University of Idaho.
Use enclosures. Covering plants moderates temperature, wind and humidity. "Air and soil temperatures are warmer, and the cover will conserve heat radiation from the soil during the night," Robbins says in a fact sheet.
Start vegetable plants inside from seed, and transplant them eventually into the garden. "Research shows the older the transplants, the better they will resist cold weather," Robbins says.
Warm the soil early. "Throw a piece of black or clear polyethylene over the soil in early spring, pin it down with tent pegs or bricks, and wait," Diacono says. "The sun will warm it and excessive water will be kept off, leaving it in a fantastically workable state a few weeks later and conducive to quick plant growth."

AKRON, Ohio – Senior Jarrod Eick captured the 1500m title while four RedHawks earned runner-up Saturday on the third and final day of the Mid-American Conference Outdoor Championships to lead the Miami University men's track and field team to a fourth-place finish. The meet was hosted by the University of Akron at Lee R. Jackson Track & Field Complex.
The RedHawks totaled 125 points over the three days, including 77 on Saturday, to tally their most points since 2008 (129.5), while the fourth-place finish also matched Miami's best finish at the MAC meet since 2008. Host Akron won its third straight outdoor MAC title, compiling 195 points, while Kent State took second with 183. Eastern Michigan was third with 142.5 points, while Buffalo (97.5) and Central Michigan (67) rounded out the field behind Miami.
Eick (Hartville, Ohio) won the 1500m run in 3:51.66 to collect 10 points, pulling away from EMU's Grzegorz Kalinowski in the home stretch. Eick becomes the first RedHawk to claim the 1500m MAC title since Pat Sovacool in 2008 and just the second Miamian to win it in over 45 years. Eick was also seventh in the 5000m final, despite running it just two hours after his 1500m win, as he posted a time of 14:57.22.
Senior Jack Spilman (Chagrin Falls, Ohio) led a trio of RedHawks in the 800m run final, as he earned runner-up in a personal-best 1:50.35, which ranks him fifth in school history. He nearly won the race, closing hard, but couldn't quite catch Kent State's Jacob Swords at the line. Juniors Kevin Brown (Lewis Center, Ohio) and Wade Coffin (Willoughby, Ohio) came in fifth and sixth, respectively, in 1:51.38 and 1:52.47, with the 1:51.38 a personal best for Brown that ranks him ninth in school history. The trio combined to earn 15 points for Miami, led by Spilman's eight.
Freshman Peter Stefanski (Aurora, Ill.) earned second in the high jump to pick up eight points, as he cleared 2.07m/6-9.5 on his first attempt. He nearly topped 2.11/6-11, which was the winning height, on his first attempt but his foot clipped the bar. Junior Matt Gambill (Dover, N.H.) tied for seventh, clearing 1.98/6-6 for another 1.5 points.
Another runner-up finish was put in by senior John Cantwell (Holland, Pa.), who also placed second in the long jump Friday, as he recorded a personal-best triple jump of 14.60m/47-11 to nab eight more points. He posted the mark on his last attempt of the finals, which moved him up from fourth.
Miami totaled nine points in the 400m dash final, led by junior Jahquil Hargrove (Norristown, Pa.), who won the event last year, as he finished second in 47.56. Classmate Robert Balzano (Poland, Ohio) was eighth in the 400m in 48.74. Hargrove also took eighth in the 200m dash final for another point, clocking 22.54.
Along with Eick's seventh-place finish in the 5K, redshirt senior Steve Kiplagat (Iten, Kenya) paced Miami by grabbing third in a personal-best 14:41.98, as he was just two ticks behind the race winner. Junior Daniel Garleb (Pickerington, Ohio) was eighth, just behind Eick, in 14:57.24, as the three 'Hawks combined for nine points in the event.
The 'Hawks picked up three points in the 110m hurdles final, as sophomores JaShawn Combs (Dayton, Ohio) and Sam Chester (Medina, Ohio) crossed in seventh and eighth, respectively, in 14.62 and 14.73.
Miami placed fourth in the 4x400m relay for five points, as sophomore Skyler Coburn (La Porte, Ind.), Balzano, freshman Adam Bodrick (Columbus, Ohio) and Hargrove combined to record a season-best 3:12.63. The RedHawks took fifth in the 4x100m relay as Bodrick, junior Sam Spallinger (Pandora, Ohio), Combs and Hargrove combined to clock 41.50 for four points.
Senior Sam Wildeman (Naperville, Ill.) wrapped up his Miami career by tying for seventh in the pole vault, clearing 4.75m/15-7 to garner 1.5 points. Freshman Paul Golen (Elmhurst, Ill.) also took seventh, doing so in the discus with a heave of 46.19m/151-6, which he recorded on his first attempt of the day. He was the lone RedHawk of three in the event to advance to the discus final, as he earned two points for Miami.
Eick received First-Team All-MAC honors for winning the 1500m, while Spallinger also collected First-Team All-MAC honors for winning the long jump on Friday. Eick had previously earned Second-Team All-MAC for taking second in the 1500m as a sophomore. Cantwell (long jump and triple jump), Hargrove (400m), Spilman (800m) and Stefanski (high jump) all garnered Second-Team All-MAC accolades for their runner-up finishes.
The MAC Championships conclude the team portion of Miami's schedule, however multiple RedHawks have qualified for the NCAA East Preliminary Rounds, held in Greensboro, N.C. May 23-25. The official field for the NCAA East Prelims will be announced Thursday, May 16. Check back with MURedHawks.com to see which RedHawks made the field.

MISENHEIMER, N.C. – Pfeiffer University and visiting Davis & Elkins College split a Friday afternoon softball doubleheader with the Lady Falcons winning the opener 2-1 in nine innings before the Senators came back for a 5-3 win in the nightcap. Pfeiffer moves to 7-15 overall on the year while Davis & Elkins advances to 12-8.
Tied at one entering the bottom of the ninth, a sacrifice bunt by Melanie Conklin (Wellington, OH) would move Celia Dew (Sanford, NC) over to third as Dew started the inning at second base due to softball's international tiebreaker rule. Ashlee Ellen (Jacksonville, FL) would then line an 0-1 pitch back up the middle into center field scoring Dew with the game-winner.
Solo home runs led to each team's runs in regulation as Carissa Dunn (Modesto, CA) blasted hers to straight-away center in the second for the Senators while Conklin bounced hers off and over the top of the right field fence in the fifth. Shelby Brown (South Hill, VA) picked up the win tossing the complete game allowing just the one run on eight hits with three strikeouts. Both teams combined to strand 24 runners in game one, 14 by Pfeiffer.
In game two, Dunn would propel the Senators to a 3-0 lead in the first with a two-run double to right while Bridget Ours (Moorefield, WV) plated Dunn with an infield single off of Lady Falcon started Lindsey Russell (Huntersville, NC). After Pfeiffer got one back in the third as Dew scored on a stolen base by Hannah Jackson (Greensboro, NC) and the throw ending up in center, Davis & Elkins would grab the two eventual game-winners in their half of the fifth.
Mallory Wishard (Waynesboro, PA) would drive in the two runs with a double that just snuck inside the third base bag scoring Corrine Carrington (Vacaville, CA) and Daniella Vineyard (Atwater, CA). The final Lady Falcon runs would come in their home half of the fifth on a Tyresha Ellis (Jefferson, SC) two-bagger to left-center. Autumn Appleby (Greencastle, PA) scored the win in the circle surrendering three runs on five hits, but fanned five in the win.
Pfeiffer will quickly get back to action on Saturday hosting West Liberty at 2:00 p.m.

Solo, Majors Tour Both In Action This Weekend
It's a big weekend of action in the top level of both the SCCA's Tire Rack Solo Championship Tour, and the SafeRacer Club Racing program's U.S. Majors Tour. Both events run Saturday and Sunday, with information, including timing, from the Dixie Championship Tour here, and the Eagles Canyon Majors Tour here.
There's plenty to look for this weekend. From the Dixie Tour at South Georgia Motorsports Park:
Season Opener: This year's season opener currently holds 282 names on the entry list. While the hometowns of the competitors focus mostly around the southeast, many northern drivers have used the early-season run to get out of the garage and back to competition.
New Class Offerings: The Dixie Tour is the debut of the Street Category classes, requiring tires that are DOT legal and offer a treadwear rating of at least 140. A topic of conversation in the series for several months, this weekend the rubber meets the road. Will the same cars and drivers remain up front, or can new drivers capitalize? Those questions will be answered by Sunday's trophy presentations.
Previewing The Battles: With the event at capacity, the stage is set for some excellent competition. In Street Touring Sport, Darrin DiSimo and John Brown, codriving a Mazda Miata will be fighting Darren Madaffari and Kerry Coughlin, both in Coughlin's Honda CRX…Fresh off her Street Touring Xtreme Ladies win at Nationals, Jordan Towns jumps to G Stock and will drive with Clay McCool in his Dodge SRT4 for an overall win. Towns needs to defeat last year's defending Dixie class winner, Andy Thomas… Last year's Super Stock podium is back this year in Super Stock R, with Sam Strano, Scott Hurley, and Adam Schoonmaker all vying for the class win... Street Touring R has last year's second through fifth place drivers returning after Jason Collett's win from last year. David Marcus, Geoff Walker, Justin Neal, all in Honda S2000s, will be running against James Cathers in his Mazda Miata, to see which driver and car has supremacy on this course.
STX Field Brings Highlights: The largest class at Georgia Motorsports Park, Street Touring Xtreme will be the one to watch. After dominating D Street Prepared last year, Bryan Heitkotter will be seeking yet another Tour win, codriving with Teddie Alexandrova in her Mazda RX-8. Challenging them are last year's second and fourth place finishers at the Dixie Tour, Jason Ruggles and Mike King, will both also be in RX-8s, hoping to see if they can rein in another victory. Never discount local favorites Dennis Sparks and Randall Prince; both have been fighting for trophies in past years and constantly developing their cars. Bill Cook and Andy Hohl in Subaru BRZs, with yet another year of development behind them and quickly proving to be fast, capable cars, will also be throwing their hat in the ring for the win.
Far From Spec: STX, G Stock, C Stock, and B Stock are just a few of the classes that show a wide variety of cars in class. With fresh newcomers in the autocross world, like the Ford Focus and Fiesta ST, rising stars like the Toyota FRS/Subaru BRZ, and established front runners including the BMW 3-series and Mazda RX-8, the potential for exciting competition remains high. Especially with the reclassing within the Street categories, previous "cars to have" will have stiff competition from other vehicles, which may not have been as dominant in years past.
Meanwhile, at Eagles Canyon, for Rounds Three and Four of the Mid-States Conference:
Another First Time Visit: The Mid-States Conference opened the season with the debut of NOLA Motorsports Park, and makes its second doubleheader stop at Eagles Canyon Raceway for the first time.
While the 2.55-mile circuit is a first on the U.S. Majors Tour schedule, it's no stranger to the SafeRacer SCCA Club Racing program. The seven-year-old circuit has hosted Regional and previous National events on the Texas event schedule.
Solid Crowd: The entry list for the Eagles Canyon Majors features 147 cars in the SCCA's 27 Runoffs-eligible classes.
The production-based group features 35 cars, spread out over the 2.55-mile layout. Joe McClughan, a former National Champion, is in B-Spec, while E Production National Championship challenger Matt Reynolds appears on the entry list. The father and son duo of John and Nigel Saurino are on the watch list in F Production, and the T3 battle between Colorado-residents Jason Ott and Jim Leithauser could prove entertaining.
Spec Racing Challenge: The season opener at NOLA saw four different Spec Racer Ford drivers on the podium in two races, with Keith Verges and Denny Stripling both securing wins. Along with Daryl Wills and Chris Funk, the top spots lead a field of 28 Spec Racer Fords to Eagles Canyon, setting up a rematch and showdown.

Real Life 'Avengers': Iron Man's Gauntlet and More Marvel Technology Beyond the Tesseract
At one point or another — most likely during lengthy road trips or late night procrastination periods in your dorm hall study lounge — you will indubitably be asked the question, "If you could have any super power, what would it be?" And while we artsy types (read: the big-dreaming do-nothings) are satisfied enough opting for the implausible flight and time-travel, mulling over the philosophical significance and ethical ramifications of said abilities, our friendly rivals in the nerd kingdom — the science geeks — are taking things a few steps further: they're actually becoming the superheroes they so admire.
The 2012 spectacle The Avengers not only inspired one of the biggest box office draws in movie history, but has also peaked the creative vision of the likes of inventor Patrick Priebe, who hosts the website laser-gadgets.com. In the below video, publicized by Giant Freakin Robot (courtesy of Cinemablend), Priebe demonstrates his latest creation: Iron Man's gauntlet. Modeling the contraption with steadfast loyalty to Tony Stark's wrist-hugging power blaster (technical term), Priebe's invention opens and shuts its various compartments in apparent response to the movement of his arm muscles, and, most impressively, actually shoots lasers. You can fast-forward to the 2:30 mark to see the mechanism fire light beams powerful enough to pop targeted balloons.
And while he is a rare kind of awesome, Priebe is not the only Earthling to bring the technology of the Avengers Initiative to the real world. Big corporations, questionable tabloid reports, and even the U.S. government have all lain claim to their own contributions to a more Marvel-ous world:
Interactive Holograms
While the interactive holograms utilized by the parties who comprise Stark Enterprises and S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters might seem the stuff of Jetsonian futures, we do have at our disposal the Holocube, a product of the great scientific minds of Belgium. It might not be as flashy or extensive, or as pertinent in world saving, but it's a start.
"Magic" File Trasnfer
Another flashy computer skill that can be found in good use in the cubicles of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s home base is the nifty trick of sending a file from one computer to another without so much as a cable, zipdrive, floppy disc, or even email. Iron Man taps his device to the screen of another, instantly earning the file on hand. And how can we mere mortals find ourselves with this technique at our disposal? There's an app for it!
Genetically Engineered Soldiers
Captain America is no longer an entity limited to the confines of science fiction. Back in December, news broke that researcher Andrew Herr had approached the U.S. military with a proposal to create real life genetically enhanced super soldiers. But do they come with the moral compass of our pal Steve Rogers? Hopefully… all that power in the wrong hands? The wrong jingoistic, hyper-powerful hands?
However You'd Categorize The Hulk
This last one is… slightly less veritable. A few years back, "news" broke that an Egyptian man named Sayyed Muhammad was claiming powers of strength and vigor far and beyond that of any ordinary human. In this The Sun report, Muhammad, likened to The Incredible Hulk, asserted his ability to lift automobiles, and to tear up coins with his hands and bend them with his eye sockets, adding that he has never, in his entire life, slept. Muhammad added that his adrenal condition required him, by medical jurisdiction, to engage in intercourse 15 times a day. So… you know. He might have been lying.

I AM, the movie, offers an insight into the true nature of our God, and fights the damaging stereotypes of His character through a gritty, non-linear drama with a plot weaving around average people violating the Ten Commandments -- one by one. In the movie, I Am, we see that these commandments were not edicts from a jealous God, but a love letter to humanity -- a warning to those who don't understand the massive consequences of even the smallest sins upon ourselves andThrough the movie, I AM, we join an eclectic cast as they try to untangle themselves from the web of sin. All along the way, each character in I Am are each joined by a mysterious companion -- ever present with a loving guidance without judgement for their actions. The more they attempt to fix their lives, the deeper they sink into chaos, pain, and loss. In addition, we discover that sin is a matrix connecting even the most remote of strangers to one another. No man is an island. One sin penetrates society like a single stone thrown into a pond. The ripple of sin grows as they affect more and more people, until it swells as a giant wave engulfing an entire city.Finally, one by one, the characters of the film,
I Am, come to surrender the mess of their lives, and accept the wisdom of this mysterious stranger. He is a man with no name, no home, no beginning, no end... He simply is -- always.For the first time ever, ONLY CHURCHES will be allowed to premiere a faith-based movie (I AM) on their own campus before anyone else! Don't miss the movie, I Am, and the moment! .I AM is a powerful, thought provoking film that will keep you on the edge of your seat while illustrating the relevance of the Ten Commandments in our modern lives.With a special opening message by author Lee Strobel, you can create a powerful moment in your church that will generate conversation, excitement, outreach, and most importantly help us all better understand the heart of the great I AM, God Himself.Become a PREMIERE EVENT CHURCH for the movie, I Am! You'll receive a special discount and an incredible host kit that includes: promotional movie trailers, posters, flyers, movie tickets, promotional ideas, and a special license to show the film, I Am, to an unlimted audience during the enitre month of October!I Am, coming to you in the tenth month of the tenth year of this century.

Good posts dude,
you really have a thing for Sparth eh?
Channeling him isn't a bad idea I guess, can only hope that something springs out of emulating him for you.
2 things i'd do, more concrete shadows and placing speculars, you have to be quite precise about the lighting but i think it's worth it to really make things pop and give them depth.
Some good ideas floating around anyway.
p.s. how the hell did you get your dog to pose for you ? xD

Comments about Cateye Uno EL010 Led Headlight:
I bought this unit, to use on my Helmet for two reasons. First I wanted to use rechargeable AA batteries on all my gear. Second this is way lighter than my climbing Petzl Myo XP headlamp with 3xAA. This unit is not as bright as, for instance, a Fenix HL21 headlamp, with the same single AA battery configuration. Consider the Cateye UNO EL010, a good/honest light, if you didn´t buy any LED light in the past 8 years. If you did bought any good model lately, you will consider this a regular/could-be-brighter unit. If you need a light for the handlebar to light the path and not only be-seen this suffice, but spending a little more money and getting a Niterider Mako100 or Planet Bike Blaze 1/2 Watt Led Headlight, would suffice on the handlebar since their reflectors are better. Spend even more, between USD40.00 and USD50.00 and get a Niterider Mako 200. The Cateye UNO suffice for city commuting, but NEVER FOR TRAIL RIDING as the only unit in your system. I still have to buy the helmet mount separately. As a secondary unit on my helmet, this UNO is OK. Waterproofness is great, if you lube the O-ring. Run-times are OK too, since the light will NOT die on you during the first two hours.

JDBC pools configuration
BTM XA datasources can be created via some java code or via a BTM-specific tool called the Resource Loader. You are free to choose the method you prefer, there is absolutely no difference between them.
Using the BTM API
BTM comes bundled with a JDBC XA connection pool which is very easy to configure. You basically have to create an instance of bitronix.tm.resource.jdbc.PoolingDataSource set some properties and you're done.
Here is an example of datasource creation that connects to an Oracle database:
1. The Bitronix
PoolingDataSource is a javabean that implements
2. You have to specify the driver's
XADataSource implementation here.
3. Each datasource must be assigned a unique name. This is required for distributed crash recovery.
4. This datasource can contain at least 0 connection. 0 is the default value when unspecified.
5. This datasource can contain at most 5 connections.
6. If there aren't enough connections in the pool to fulfill a request, new connections will be created, by increments of 1 at a time.
7. You have to set
allowLocalTransactions to true if you want to be able to run SQL statements outside of XA transactions scope. Defaults to false.
8. When specified, this query will be executed to check that the connection is still valid before handing it to the application code.
9. Set
useTmJoin to false if the vendor's
XADataSource implementation does not implement
XAResource.isSameRM() properly. Refer to the JdbcXaSupportEvaluation page to see if your database needs it. Defaults to true.
10. Set
deferConnectionRelease to false if the vendor's
XADataSource implementation supports transactions interleaving. Refer to the JdbcXaSupportEvaluation page to see if your database supports it. Defaults to true.
11. Set
automaticEnlistingEnabled to false if you do not want the
PoolingDataSource to automatically enlist/delist the connections into the XA transactions. You then have to enlist
XAResource}}s manually into the {{Transaction objects for them to participate in XA transactions. Defaults to true.
12. The amount of seconds the pool will block when a connection is requested but the pool is empty and cannot grow anymore. Defaults to 30.
13. The amount of seconds the pool will wait when a connection has been tested invalid before trying to acquire a new one. Defaults to 1.
14. The amount of prepared statements cached per pooled connection. Defaults to 0, meaning statement caching is disabled.
15,16,17. The driverProperties is a
java.util.Properties object. You have to add into it a set of property name / property value of the
OracleXADataSource class. You have to refer to the driver's documentation to know what can / has to be set. The OracleXADataSource javadoc contains this list for the Oracle case. BTM will perform conversion from
String to
boolean or to
int when necessary.
18,19. You can now use the
PoolingDataSource like any other
20. Remember to close the
PoolingDataSource after you're done with it to release the connections.
Minimal settings
You do not have to set properties that have a default value. Here is a simplified version of the previous code creating a
PoolingDataSource with minimal settings:
This will create a
PoolingDataSource that will work exactly the same as the previous one. The only difference is that unspecified properties have been left untouched with their default value.
Eager initialization
The connection pool will be initialized during the first call to
getConnection(). It might be desirable to initialize the pool eagerly, like during application startup rather than having to wait for the first requests. This can be done by calling
Now line 10 will initialize the pool instead of line 11.
Using the Resource Loader
A datasource configuration utility is also bundled with BTM. It is convenient to use it rather than create your datasources in code. Refer to the Resource Loader page for more details.
Here is the equivalent Resource Loader configuration of the previous code example:
You just have to write those properties in a simple text file and tell BTM where to load it by setting the
resourceConfigurationFilename property of the Configuration object.
Now you also have to know how to get the datasource created by the Resource Loader. There are multiple ways:
- Add
bitronix.tm.resource.bind=trueto your resource loader properties file. The datasources will then be bound to the default JNDI server using their
uniqueNameas their JNDI name.
- Another way (in case the JNDI context is read only, like in Tomcat) is to bind a bitronix.tm.resource.ResourceFactory object, passing it a javax.naming.Reference containing a javax.naming.StringRefAddr containing the datasource's
addrTypesomewhere in your JNDI tree. The
bitronix.tm.resource.ResourceFactoryclass will just return the datasource with the specified
uniqueName. This is explained more in-depth in the Tomcat integration page.
- The last way is to call bitronix.tm.resource.ResourceRegistrar.get(String uniqueName). This is the least preferred method as this ties your code to BTM which you probably want to avoid.

ELON — After the
On the line was the Southern Conference regular-season title, and standing in the way was the
Elon (12-4-2) finished with a 5-2 record in Southern Conference play. One of those two losses came Oct. 16 at home to the
"That wait held on the hour mark there," Dean said. "I think the computer failed for a good 10 minutes before we really found out."
"Being the top team in the league is very important," coach Darren Powell said. "To get championships for
Neither Elon nor Duke (7-7-2) could get much in the way of chances throughout the game, as most of the play was contested between the penalty areas. Though the Blue Devils outshot Elon 8-7, Duke could only manage to get two on target compared to Elon's three.
"That was a good soccer game," Duke coach John Kerr said. "It was a 0-0 game but there was a lot of action and a lot of good plays on both teams. For the neutral fans, it was fun to watch."
The best chance of the night for either side came in the 55th minute when Duke sophomore defender Nat Eggleston blasted a shot from well outside the penalty area. Dean deflected the ball just enough to send it into the crossbar.
The Blue Devils did something to the
"We're very glad we didn't concede any goals," Kerr said.
For Powell, there's little time for rest after winning the conference title, as his team plays host to a quarterfinal matchup in the conference tournament against Davidson on Saturday.
"It's nice to be champions of the league, but my thought process really is to get ready for Saturday and making sure these guys are ready," he said. "It's nice to win the regular season, but now we want to keep pushing on and hopefully perform well in the conference tournament."
Dean echoed those thoughts.
"It's nice to go into the tournament with the first seed," he said. "But it doesn't change the fact that there are a lot of strong teams. Right through the league, there are a lot of difficult teams this year."

For hot summer riding, lightweight simplicity is the name of the game. When it designed the Concept Gloves, Dakine threw out all the bells and whistles in favor of a bare-bones approach to streamlined performance. This approach paid off — the result is flair-free summer fun.
The back of the Concept glove is ultra-breathable open mesh. Air flows freely through the gloves to keep your hands cool and comfortable. The palm is tough synthetic leather. It's not padded, so the trail is perfectly translated through the bars, increasing your level of bike control. There's also a touchscreen compatible index finger pad, so you can control your phone or MP3 player without removing your gloves.
The Dakine Concept Gloves come in sizes Small through X-Large and are available in Black, Camo, and Scuba.

The TomTom EASE, TomTom's newest entry-level car navigation solution that was introduced at CES 2010, combines even greater ease-of-use with quality navigation at a very affordable price – making it the ideal gift for drivers everywhere.
"Now in red, the TomTom EASE is the perfect Valentine's Day gift that combines quality, simplicity and style into one compact device," said Jocelyn Vigreux, president of TomTom Inc.

The device features maps from Tele Atlas covering more than 6.5 million miles of roadways in the U.S. and including more than three million standard and premium points of interest. The same Tele Atlas maps that will power the device were recently rated highest for quality and reliability in certified tests.
Extensive safety features
Safety is a key priority in the development of all TomTom products. TomTom EASE is designed with safety features so that drivers always have direct access to extensive safety and roadside assistance information wherever they go. The extensive 'Help Me!'

Welcome to our University of Washington School of Dentistry clinics, where we manage all aspects of oral health. Our clinics fall into three main categories:
Dental student clinics: Student dentists, working toward their DDS degree, care for patients under close supervision by experienced faculty dentists. Our students deliver a wide range of preventive and restorative care, including routine exams, cleanings, fillings, bleaching, mouth guards, esthetic treatments, repairing chipped or fractured teeth, root canals, crowns, implants, complete and partial dentures, and more. Treatment requires substantially more time than at a private dental office, because of the need for close faculty monitoring every step along the way. Patients also must receive an initial assessment to be sure that students can successfully manage their care.
Fees vary by procedure, but on average, they are about 40 percent lower than the average for private dentists in the greater Seattle area. Read more about dental student clinics.
Graduate specialty clinics: Graduate specialty dental students, also called residents, deliver care to patients under faculty supervision. These residents have already earned a DDS degree and are studying a dental specialty such as orthodontics, oral surgery or pediatric dentistry.
Learn more about The Center for Pediatric Dentistry and our oral health care for children of all ages and abilities, including special needs.
Our residency programs include every dental specialty recognized by the American Dental Association. Because residents have more experience, treatment does not take as long as in our student dental clinics, but requires more time than it would in a private dental office. Our graduate clinic residents provide treatment that might be beyond the technical skills of our pre-doctoral students.
Our graduate specialty clinics also provide treatment for people with unique problems or challenges, including disabilities, medical complications (such as cancer, trauma, or transplant patients), dental phobias, and other unusual dental or medical conditions.
Fees vary by procedure and among clinics, but are about 20 to 25 percent lower than the average for private dentists practicing in the greater Seattle area. Read more about graduate specialty clinics.
UW Dentists Faculty Practice: Our experienced faculty members provide care for virtually all dental conditions in much the same way as a private dental office. UW faculty dentists are internationally recognized for their expertise in all dimensions of dental care.
Fees are comparable to those of private dentists practicing in the greater Seattle area. Read more about UW Dentists Faculty Practice.

Our goal is to make sure you get excellent and timely care in a compassionate environment. Click on one of the links above to learn more about individual clinical services or to arrange an appointment.
Different clinics may have different requirements for accepting patients. In some cases for our graduate specialty clinics, you may need X-rays and a referral from your private dentist. For additional information, please contact the clinic directly.
If you can't find what you're looking for here, call our Patient Services office for help at 206.685.1022, or e-mail email@example.com.
Why choose the UW School of Dentistry?
For more than 60 years, the School of Dentistry has been an internationally recognized center of dental education, training and research, with our alumni making up nearly half of all practicing dentists in Washington state. Our clinical care, with more than 74,000 annual patient visits, reflects our mission to comprehensively train exceptional dental clinicians and serve all segments of our community. We offer general dentistry and all dental specialties as well as emergency care. Dentists and physicians all over Washington refer patients to us for specialized or comprehensive care, in programs such as our Oral Medicine Clinical Service, Maxillofacial Prosthodontics, or Advanced General Dentistry.
We place a strong emphasis on evidence-based dentistry; one way in which we support it is by coordinating the Northwest PRECEDENT research network of private dentists. We are leaders in finding new and better ways to provide care, with ventures such as our Center for Pediatric Dentistry, a collaboration with Seattle Children's hospital. Opened in September 2010, the Center is a regional and national center of pediatric oral health care, research and education.
Our clinical care is affordable, with our student clinics and graduate specialty clinics offering fees significantly below the average for private dental offices in the greater Seattle area. We are conveniently located in the Health Sciences Center at the south edge of the University of Washington campus, served by multiple King County Metro Transit, Community Transit and Sound Transit bus routes. Paid parking is available in the UW's Triangle Garage on Pacific Street or in the "S" parking lot and garage behind the School of Dentistry.
To make the patient experience as smooth as possible, we also offer free translation services in more than 50 languages.

BFGoodrich Tires Sebring Super Tour Opens 2013
The Dawn Of An Era: In September 2012, the Sports Car Club of America rolled out the U.S. Majors Tour as the top level of amateur racing in this country. With events coast-to-coast and split into four Conferences, the Majors season opens this weekend at Sebring International Raceway with a doubleheader for the Eastern Conference. Drivers are coming from all over the country to participate in the weekend, featuring an enhanced race experience for drivers and fans, from pre-race to the product on the track to what happens after the race.
BFGoodrich Tires, Back Again: The official street tire of the SCCA, BFGoodrich Tires returns for its third season as sponsor of the BFGoodrich Tires Super Tour events. The 2013 schedule features six weekends that are part of the Super Tour and feature some of the best-known tracks in the United States. Including the opener this weekend at Sebring International Raceway, Auto Club Speedway, Circuit of the Americas, VIRginia International Raceway, and Watkins Glen International host a BFGoodrich Tires Super Tour weekend this season. Each of those events are a part of the U.S. Majors Tour and the robust SafeRacer SCCA National Racing Series.
SCCA Club Racers – The Best In The Country: There are lots of amateur road racing groups in the United States, but the clear leader of top drivers is with the SCCA. Though most are weekend warriors who take vacations from their full-time jobs to attend races, it's a craft taken seriously. Bobby Rahal, Mark Donohue, Roger Penske, Michael Andretti, and actor/driver Paul Newman got their start in SCCA Club Racing. More recently, you could have seen current stars Boris Said, Graham Rahal, Sam Hornish or J.R. Hildebrand at an SCCA Club race.
Off The Deep End: The field at this weekend's BFGoodrich Tires Sebring Super Tour event is a deep one, with 313 names currently on the entry list. If all show up, that would best the 300 cars that attended in 2011 as the most in recent history – a stout field to begin the Eastern Conference season.
That field includes 61 cars just in the Spec Racer Ford class, and 55 in Spec Miata. Both of those classes are led by their defending National Champions – Cliff White, from Huntsville, Ala., won his first Spec Racer Ford title last September, and Jim Drago, from Memphis, Tenn., grabbed his first Spec Miata Championship. Both drivers' title defenses start this weekend in Sebring.
Snow Bird Season: Though this is the Eastern Conference opener, drivers are coming from around the country to be a part of it, gathering the National Points to help qualify for the SCCA National Championship Runoffs and get an early jump on the season. Points at the Majors Races, including this weekend's BFGoodrich Tires Sebring Super Tour, come with a bonus when factoring into the Divisional and SafeRacer National Racing Series point championships. What does that mean? We're seeing it already – the best drivers are coming to the best races.
Fun For The Family: Fans may attend the event at Sebring as guests of the SCCA for a $10 fee. Admission includes a free program and a paddock pass allowing spectators into the garage areas for up close visits with the cars and drivers.

Owings Mills, MD (SportsNetwork.com) - Veteran cornerbacks Aaron Ross and Dominique Franks were among five players signed by the Baltimore Ravens on Friday.
Ross, a former first-round pick of the Giants and member of New York's Super Bowl champion teams during the 2007 and 2011 seasons, has started 52 games over a seven-year NFL career. The 31-year-old played in the first four games of the 2013 campaign before the Giants placed him on injured reserve with a back problem.
Franks appeared in all 16 games with the Atlanta Falcons over the past two seasons, primarily as a special-teamer. The 2010 fifth-round pick has totaled 30 tackles and three interceptions over 48 career contests, all with Atlanta.
The Ravens also signed linebackers Austin Spitler and Nick DiMarco as well as wide receiver Mike Willie.
Spitler is the most experienced of the latter group, having played in 55 games as a special-teams ace for the Miami Dolphins over the previous four seasons.
