Comments about Reading Light:
I just love this little light! I mainly use it to read books. It has a nice big clip and will brighten both pages at once if you adjust it correctly. It's also handy when I don't want to turn on a bright light in the middle of the night to take medicine while I'm in bed. And I've discovered it's useful when I paint my fingernails since my vision isn't as acute as it used to be. The only thing I can possibly mention as a "con," like the first reviewer said, is that there is only one setting, not two; but that hasn't bothered me much. Great product!

Comments about Reading Light:
When traveling at night, my 3 yr old grandson always asks my daughter to turn on the cars 'dome lite' so he can read/see his books while in his car seat. This can be distracting & annoying to the driver. This clip on light was the absolute perfect solution. We clip it on to his car seat & he just presses the button & adjusts the flexible arm for the perfect amt of light. I am ordering 3 more to give as gifts. Cons: The description states "Choose from two LED brightness levels"..... (There is ONLY "1" level of brightness)

Groovy-Eclipse provides a compiler plugin for Maven. Using the compiler plugin, it is possible to compile your maven projects using the Groovy-Eclipse compiler.
- How to use the compiler plugin---Setting up the POM
- Setting up the source folders
- Sample project and source code
- Why another Groovy compiler for Maven? What about GMaven?
- Project Lombok
- Groovy-Eclipse configurator for m2Eclipse
- Release Builds

How to use the compiler plugin---Setting up the POM
In your plugin section, you must change the compiler used by the maven-compiler-plugin. Like the javac ant task, the maven-compiler-plugin does not actually compile, but rather delegates the compilation to a different artifact (in our case, the
groovy-eclipse-batch artifact):
This will allow Groovy files to be compiled. The groovy-eclipse-compiler recognizes all settings supported by the maven-compiler-plugin.
Remember that you still need to specify a groovy artifact as a build dependency in addition to the
maven-compiler-plugin dependency. The groovy dependency version should match the compiler version. Something like this:
Note that the groovy-eclipse-compiler and groovy-eclipse-batch artifacts are available in Maven-central, so there is no need to explicitly declare any extra repositories.
Setting up the source folders
There are several ways to set up your maven project to recognize Groovy source files
Do nothing
The simplest way to set up your source folders is to do nothing at all: add all of your Groovy files to
src/main/java and
src/test/java. This requires absolutely no extra configuration and is easy to implement. However, this is not a standard maven approach to setting up your project. If you require a more standard maven approach, then it is possible to put your Groovy files in
src/main/groovy and
src/test/groovy and you Java files in
src/main/java and
src/test/java. There are several ways of doing this.
Do almost nothing
If there is at least one file (Java or not) in
src/main/java, then all files in
src/main/groovy will be found. If, however,
src/main/java is empty, then
src/main/groovy will be ignored. You can get around this by placing an empty file in
src/main/java just so that
src/main/groovy will be recognized. The same is true for
src/test/java and
src/test/groovy. This is actually a workaround for GRECLIPSE-1221.
Use the
groovy-eclipse-compiler mojo for configuring source folders
(You only need this approach if your project has an empty
src/main/java or
If your project has no Java files and you don't want to add an empty file in
src/main/java, then you can configure source files by referencing the groovy-eclipse-compiler mojo. Just add this to the
plugins section of your pom:
<extensions>true</extensions> section is important because this redefines the default lifecycle of your project so that an extra phase is added. This phase has an extra goal attached to it that adds the two Groovy source folders.
Use the
(You only need this approach if your project has an empty
src/main/java or
build-helper-maven-plugin allows you to do things like adding extra source folders to your project without needing to redefine the default lifecycle. You need to add this configuration to your build plugin section:
The benefit of using this approach is that you do not need to make any changes to the default lifecycle. The downside is, of course, that you need 31 lines of configuration to do this!
Sample project and source code
There is an archetype available for this project. You can use it through a command like this:
(This archetype is not actively maintained.)
A sample project using the compiler plugin as well as the source code for the plugin itself are available from the github repository:
The sample project and archetype is not maintained as well as we would like. Some community help with this would be greatly appreciated. Please see GRECLIPSE-1285.
Why another Groovy compiler for Maven? What about GMaven?
GMaven 2.0 and later no longer supports compilation. You can read more about this on the GMaven 2 project page. GMaven 1.x is now deprecated.
GMaven 1.x had limitations over the groovy-eclipse-compiler and for the following reasons GMaven 2.0 compilation is no longer supported:
- The compiler plugin does not require the creation of Java stubs so that your Groovy files can compile against Java files. This will prevent some arcane compile errors from appearing.
- The Groovy-Eclipse compiler is the same inside Eclipse and inside Maven, and so configuration across the two platforms can be simplified.
- The compiler plugin is a standard compiler plugin for Maven. It therefore follows all allows all the same standard configuration that the Javac compiler plugin uses. This makes it simpler to introduce Groovy into an existing Maven project. All you need to do is change the compiler plugin that the pom references.
There are still some reasons to use GMaven:
- GroovyDoc tool is not supported because the compiler plugin does not produce stubs.
- Groovy Mojos are not supported.
- Groovy scripts cannot be executed in your poms.
Whether or not the Groovy-Eclipse compiler plugin for Maven is appropriate for your project will depend on your requirements.
Project Lombok
Project Lombok is compatible with the groovy-eclipse-compiler. There is some extra configuration that you need to do. The lombok jar needs to be added to both the build and compile dependencies sections:
Also, the following configuration needs to be added to the maven-compiler-plugin configuration:
Groovy-Eclipse configurator for m2Eclipse
If you are going to be working with your maven project inside of Eclipse, it is strongly recommended that you use m2eclipse. And to use your Groovy projects with m2eclipse, you will need to install the Groovy-Eclipse configurator for m2eclipse. This feature is available any of the Groovy-Eclipse update sites (e.g., nightly, milestone, or release). Just go to your Eclipse update manager and add the Groovy-Eclipse update sites (if you haven't done so already). Select the Groovy-Eclipse M2E integration.
Release Builds
|Eclipse level
|Release update site
Development Builds
|Eclipse level
|Development update site
The Groovy-Eclipse configurator for m2eclipse is not compatible with AspectJ or Scala. So you cannot use a joint AspectJ/Scala/Groovy project in Eclipse. These languages must be separated into separate sub-projects.
Where to find more information and ask questions
The compiler plugin was originally described here and here, but these posts are no longer updated and this page will always contain the more recent information.

The Lombok support didn't work for me, apparently due to GRECLIPSE-1661. The fix was to use groovy-eclipse-compiler 2.7.0-01 or 2.9.0-01-SNAPSHOT.
Edit: If you downgrade for the sake of Lombok, be warned that groovy-eclipse-compiler 2.7.0-01 has very ugly compiler warnings, without the 2.8.0 improvements.
Does the 2.9.0.SNAPSHOT work for you?
It does, but if I switch to it, I won't be able to release my software because of the SNAPSHOT dependency. Is the expected released date really 18/Dec/13?
That is our plan right now, but I can't guarantee it since releases of Groovy-Eclipse are dependent on releases of other projects, like Groovy, Grails, and Spring Tool Suite whose release dates tend to move around as well.

Since 1999 -- with an official proclamation and everything! -- July has been known as National Blueberry Month. Chances are, you're hip to the fact that blueberries are both delicious and nutritious, but do you know just how nutritious? Let's take a look at what's so special about these tiny little fruits, and try my super-easy Red, White and Blueberry Parfait for the Fourth of July.
Blueberries are chock full of antioxidants -- in fact, studies have shown that they rank higher than almost all other fruits and vegetables. Antioxidants are important in disease prevention because they help protect and repair cells from damage caused by free radicals, which helps to strengthen your immune system and prevent chronic diseases like cancer.
Heart Health
Studies have shown that blueberries can help to lower blood pressure, raise the level of HDL, or "good" cholesterol and lower "bad," or LDL, cholesterol. While much of this has to do with the high levels of antioxidants, blueberries seem to be more successful in maintaining cardiovascular health than other antioxidant foods.
A recent study published in the Annals of Neurology in April linked blueberry intake with increased cognitive function in older adults. The study, which looked at 16,000 women with an average age of 74, found that those who had the highest berry intake had better overall cognitive function and memory.
Blood Sugar
The high fiber content of blueberries combined with their low glycemic index make them a good choice for regulating blood sugar. Studies have shown that low-GI fruits like blueberries can help to regulate blood sugar levels in those with Type 2 diabetes.
Is there anything blueberries can't do? Not really. Try to incorporate more blueberries into your diet in July, and see what it does for your health! To get you started, here's an easy recipe to help you kick off National Blueberry Month and also does double-duty as an easy, healthy dessert recipe for the Fourth of July.
Red, White and Blueberry Parfait
Serves 4
2 cups plain yogurt
2 tablespoons honey
Juice of one lime
1 cup fresh strawberries
1 cup fresh blueberries
1/4 cup chopped almonds
- In a medium bowl, whisk together yogurt, honey and lime juice until well mixed.
Divide one cup of the yogurt mixture between our parfait glasses. Divide strawberries to form another layer, then divide remaining cup of the yogurt mixture to form a layer on top of that. Divide blueberries to make the final layer, and top with chopped almonds.

U.N. investigators visited the site of a mass killing in Syria. Their initial report cites a targeted attack on the village of Tremseh, but have been unable to confirm the death toll. The Syrian government says it was an anti-terrorist operation and no civilians were killed. Guest host David Greene talks to NPR's Deborah Amos.

In New York City's parks, you'll see pet parents walking dogs of all shapes and sizes, ranging from tiny to extra large. And, while it might be hard to imagine larger breed dogs residing in small apartments, the truth is that super-sized pups can live perfectly happy and healthy lives as city dwellers.
Pamela Barlow, a Behavior Counselor at the ASPCA Adoption Center in Manhattan, says the key to cohabitating with a large dog in a small space is to provide your dog with plenty of exercise.
Now that spring is finally here, it's the perfect time to head outdoors. Large dogs can make great running partners, and provide motivation to hit the trail regularly for a vigorous run or walk.
This spring, please consider adopting a large breed dog from your local shelter—even if your home is on the small end of the spectrum. Check out our slideshow below of adorable large dogs available for adoption at the ASPCA Adoption Center, including the super-playful Romeo, sweetheart Baby, and the very friendly Ghost—just to name a few!
Not in NYC? Use our shelter finder to search for adoptable dogs near you.
I love Pittys. they are so much fun and such a good doggie. smart and loyal. I love them. I met three at different times and all they did was kiss me and wack me with their tails. great doggies and I HATE dog fighting. Hate
People can learn a lot from pitties--especially about love and forgiveness...
Pit bulls are great dogs. I just wish that the ASPCA would post pictures and mugshots of dog fighting suspects on their websites. It is not right to gift them with anonymity.
You are absolutely right Ryan. It's unthinkable that cruel exploitive people can just slink away without any responsibility for their hideous actions. I'm certain that exposure to society would stop some but it might drive others farther underground. As a society, we need to be vigilant.
I have had 2 med large dogs (60 lbs & 55 lbs) & they both grew up nicely in my one bedroom apt. I walk them daily NO EXCEPTIONS, but they have always been happy here. It isn't the size of the home but the care of the owner. <3

It's a senior moment for USD
The final buzzer having blared, the obligatory postgame handshakes complete after USD's 76-69 win over Pepperdine on Saturday, the Toreros' basketball team walked to the Jenny Craig Pavilion center court.
First, senior Cameron Miles stepped inside the huddle and danced a jig in front of his howling teammates. Miles stepped back and in walked the other two seniors, Ken Rancifer and Chris Manresa.
Rancifer and Manresa broke out the Dougie.
"Manresa," Rancifer would later say, "he's got moves nobody knows about.
For one day, it was a party atop Alcala Park. The down-to-the-last-minute victory snapped a five-game losing streak.
"That was a lower-lip biter, must winner," said assistant coach Mike Burns.
It gave the Toreros (14-17, 7-9) some much-needed momentum going into next week's WCC Tournament in Las Vegas.
And most memorably, after USD's seniors were introduced before the game and walked to midcourt with family members, the victory sent the threesome out winners in their last game at the JCP. Fittingly, Manresa (13), Rancifer (13) and Miles (10) all scored in double figures.
"I'm so proud of our guys for the way that we bounced back after a tough game on Thursday night," said Manresa, referring to the 83-70 home loss to USF.
"I'm proud of our seniors and I'm one of them. I'm just proud of all of us. We all stepped up big tonight and played hard for each other."
Anything less and the Toreros would have been looking at that five-game losing streak stretching to six.
USD led 37-34 at the half on Miles' three-pointer at the buzzer.
Pepperdine, paced by guard Lorne Jackson's 22 points, led by one with 10:42 to play. The game was tied 56-56 with 8:40 to go.
It was a three-point game with 4:35 unplayed. But the Waves would miss their next three shots from the field, plus two free throws. USD's lead stretched to 71-63 with 1:32 to go and the win was virtually on ice.
"It was a hard-fought game, and I think we needed one like that where we had to battle all the way to beat them," said head coach Bill Grier.
"Having our three seniors play that well in their last home game is pretty special."
The Toreros' sophomore backcourt played well, too. Johnny Dee scored a team-high 14, mostly on outside jumpers and runners. Five-foot-7 point guard Christopher Anderson filled the stat sheet with 13 points, six rebounds, five assists, one steal and just two turnovers.
The bulk of Anderson's points came on hard, acrobatic drives into the paint.
Just two days earlier, in a game with important WCC Tournament seeding on the line, the Toreros fell behind USF 18-2, and the seniors admitted the team came out flat. No such problem Saturday afternoon before 2,209 at the JCP.
"It's hard sometimes to judge if guys are ready or not," Grier said. "But they certainly had a look in their eye coming into the locker room, sitting there, in our pregame talk, when they came out, coming over to the bench, at the start of the game.

If you have further questions, please refer to Jury Orientation.
Each year the Minnesota Judicial Branch obtains names from a list of licensed drivers, state identification card holders, and registered voters residing in your county and compiles that information into a source list. The names of deceased persons, provided by the Department of Health, are removed from the source list. From that list, individuals are randomly selected by computer.

The Constitutions of the United States and the State of Minnesota guarantee defendants in criminal cases and litigants in civil cases the right to a trial by jury. As a prospective juror, you have an opportunity to participate directly in a critical component of our democracy.
Failure to appear for jury service is a misdemeanor offense which is punishable by up to a $1,000.00 fine and up to 90 days in jail (per Minnesota Statutes Chapter 593).
A prospective juror must be:
A person who has received a jury summons will be excused for any of the following reasons:
A prospective juror who is 70 years of age or older can be excused without providing evidence of an inability to serve, but may choose to serve if able.
If you are disqualified/excused, a confirmation notice will be sent to you.
If the period of time on your summons presents a hardship due to employment, vacation, family business, or any other hardship, you may request a one-time postponement of service for up to nine months. You may request a postponement online, on your summons, or by calling the contact number listed on your summons.
The length of the term of service varies from county to county, depending on county population. Refer to your summons or your county website for specific terms of service.
If you need special accommodations, such as a sight or sign language interpreter, hearing amplification, or special seating, please contact your county's jury office so they know what type of assistance you will need.
Jurors are paid $10.00 for each day that they report to the courthouse, plus roundtrip mileage from home to the courthouse at the rate of 27 cents per mile.
Jurors who are normally caring for their children during the day can be reimbursed for childcare expenses up to $50.00 per day in addition to other fees paid. Details and forms are available when you report.
Under the State of Minnesota guidelines there are two levels of daycare reimbursement:
The $10.00 per diem must be reported as income for tax purposes. You must keep a record of the amounts you receive as no tax has been withheld and no W-2 forms are furnished. 1099 forms are furnished only to those jurors who receive $600.00 or more in juror compensation.
Your employer must allow you time off to serve on a jury. That is the law. Minnesota statute prohibits any employer from firing or harassing an employee who is summoned for jury service. However, you must let your employer know well in advance, as soon as you receive your summons. You should contact the court if you have a problem with your employer. Remember that you can postpone jury service to a more convenient time. Read your summons carefully or contact your county's jury office to find out how to request a postponement.
There is no Minnesota law that requires employers to pay employees while serving jury duty. Some employers do pay normal salaries to employees serving on a jury. You will need to check with your employer. Also, individuals who belong to labor unions may be covered through their union contracts.
Being self-employed does not excuse you from jury service.
After you have submitted your questionnaire, you may request a one-time postponement of service for up to nine months. You may request a postponement online, on your summons, or by calling the contact number listed on your summons.
If you are a student, after you have submitted your questionnaire you may postpone your report date to a date during a school break.
No, not necessarily. It depends upon where you permanently reside (determined by the address on your driver's license) and which Minnesota County summoned you to serve as a juror:
After you have submitted your questionnaire, you may request a one-time postponement of service for up to nine months. You may request a postponement online, on your summons, or by calling the contact number listed on your summons.
Upon request, the county's jury office contact can provide you with a written verification of the days that you reported for jury service.

It is a serious pity that one can only praise the film version of George Orwell's Animal Farm as a valuable beginning or experiment, and hardly more than that. For the project, under the sponsorship of Louis de Rochemont, was clearly given the benefit of a great deal of intelligence, devotion and skill, to say almost nothing of the amount of money involved. The reviews in the daily newspaper have already pronounced the damnation of faint praise upon the film with a genuine kindness which will serve no purpose and certainly will not help at the box office. One can only hope that Mr.
For thy sake, tobacco, I would do anything but die. So Charles Lamb made his sad peace with the weed in the dark Nineteenth Century before American ingenuity outdid itself to bring hope to the scared smoker. Assaulted with report after unnerving laboratory report on the link between cigarettes and cancer, the nation's tobacco lords and their Madison Avenue idea men are verging on the schizophrenic. They dare not protest too much; yet, will not silence seem to mean consent to the terrible charges of medical science. Even the old familiars have been shaken.
Of all the Communist parties, both in the East and West, none is in such a peculiar and paradoxical position as die Austrian. Though backed by Red guns and money, it has been unable to obtain more than a steady five percent of the total vote in a country whose unemployment problem among its youth is phenomenal, and whose living standard during the last twenty years has suffered one of the greatest declines of any nation in Europe. Indeed so inept have Communist Efforts become that during the last elections they could find no better campaign issue than increased pensions for the aged.
Most Americans were shocked when they read, in the newspapers on May 27 and 28, that Nobel Peace Prize winner Ralph Bunche was being subjected to a long and arduous loyalty probe by the International Organizations' Employees Loyalty Board, created by President Eisenhower to examine the loyalty of American citizens employed by the United Nations. It was a closed hearing; the evidence remains secret. The New York Times and other newspapers, however, disclosed the names of his accusers: Manning Johnson and Leonard Patterson. Of the latter I have nothing to say.
The President's Remarkable Firmness The Tennessee Valley Authority needs a new plant—^with an installed capacity of 600,000 kilowatts—if it is to meet the demands of the Atomic Energy Commission: about 50 percent of TVA power goes to the AEC and another 25 percent to defense plants.
BILLINGS, MONTANA Mr. Evans Houghton, of New York and Towaco, N. J., is one of the promising employees in the Selvage, Lee & Chase advertising stables, currently much occupied with the promotion of 86-proof Old Crow. Granted, Houghton did not know, when he retained the Crow Indians to plug his bourbon, that they had voted to retain prohibition. Not until the very last moment did he learn of it. But whatever doubts and fears assailed him then, he vanquished—had vanquished years ago, on the playing fields of Hearst.
Fear is the dominant mood of Christopher Isherwood's earlier novels. To understand the situation Isherwood dramatizes think of a young man trying to write a lyric poem about Identity or Love or Life in the midst of a demolition squad busily destroying his house, his home, his country. What does history have to do with me, the composite hero ponders, and I with history? In such a world as this what meaning can be attached to private acts of art and love.' InThe Memorial the fearful mood of England after the first World War is presented through the breakdown of a family.
Some West German film producers are talking about making movies especially for the American market—another sign of industrial vitality, we may suppose. A few interesting German films have tried to buck the post-war indifference towards things German here: The Blum Affair, and Die Pledermaus, for example. But like most of the British, French and Italian films whose US success the Germans envy, these were made first and most of all for audiences in their own country.
Even months ago, the leaders-of the Grand Alliance met at Bermuda. Little was accomplished, perhaps because US spokesmen grandly assumed that "the initiative" in the Cold War had in fact been "seized" by the Alliance, or certainly by the US. Whatever the cause, Bermuda was hardly a meeting between equals, rather between the leader and his subordinates.

Rigoletto: Photo Gallery | Q&A with Director Michael Mayer Rigoletto: Feature Article
Both Giuseppe Verdi's Rigoletto and Victor Hugo's Le Roi s'amuse—the work on which it's based—have a rich history with the morality police. Hugo's 1832 play, which portrays King Francis I of France as a randy seducer, was banned after a single performance for its depiction of a licentious monarch. Verdi encountered similar resistance from the Austrian censors, who wielded enormous power in northern Italy, and it was only after the composer moved the action of his opera to 16th-century Mantua, whose ruling family had long since disappeared, that Rigoletto was finally able
to have its triumphant premiere at La Fenice in 1851. Regardless of its setting or version, though, the opera takes place in a world where powerful men use women as playthings, where proximity to wealth and power is all-important, and where putting out a hit on an enemy is par for the course. In other words, director Michael Mayer's decision to set his new Met production of Rigoletto in Las Vegas in 1960 is right on the money. "Rigoletto has long been one of my favorite operas," says Mayer, whose production premiered in January with Željko Lučić in the title role, Diana Damrau as his beloved daughter, Gilda, and Piotr Beczala as the womanizing Duke. (For the April run, George Gagnidze, Lisette Oropesa, and Vittorio Grigolo take over the leading roles.) As soon as Mayer was engaged
for the project, "I started thinking about what I could bring to this masterpiece, which has been seen all over the world for so many decades and in different incarnations. One of the things I discussed with Peter Gelb was to try and make the audience feel closer to the story—without setting the opera today, which dates something automatically. You try to find the right setting in a context that's in the past but not so far in the past that it feels like a museum piece. That way it can have real, immediate resonance but also a kind of purity and universality." It didn't take long for Mayer to
land on sixties Las Vegas as just the
sort of semi-recent historical moment that could lend potency to the story.
"I started to think about the world of the Duke's palace, and who Rigoletto
is, and how that could feel fresh," he says. "I tried to imagine what a contemporary version of the decadent world
of the Duke's palace would be—where people are partying and full of a kind of fascination with power and money and beauty—and I thought of Las Vegas as the epitome of an American destiny for the events that happen in Rigoletto." Mayer, who has had notable success on Broadway, winning a Tony Award for his staging of Spring Awakening, is hardly the first director to take an unconventional approach to Verdi's tale of the hunchbacked court jester. Jonathan Miller famously scored a major success with his Mafia version, set in Little Italy in the 1950s, which premiered at English National Opera in 1982 and has been seen in many houses since then. Mayer's placement of Rigoletto in Las Vegas clearly is a theatrically intriguing idea as well. Needless to say, the setting also
offers great opportunities for devising striking visuals that will bring the neon-drenched atmosphere of Vegas to vivid life on the Met's grand stage. Mayer turned to set designer Christine Jones and lighting designer Kevin Adams
to devise a glittering wonderland. The team has created a series of beautiful light sculptures that bathe the stage
in all shades of red, green, yellow, and blue. The effect is dazzlingly electric—with Susan Hilferty's stunning period costumes providing a perfect complement. It's a truly arresting approach. Verdi's characters fit this time and landscape surprisingly well. "In 1960, Las Vegas sort of shifted," Mayer explains. "The Mob started to become more clearly affiliated with the town, and there was also a real shift in the relationship to women. It was that sensibility that women were there as sexual objects. Rigoletto has this beautiful daughter whom he loves, and he's trying to keep her protected from all of the temptation and the sex and the drugs and the booze and the money and the organized crime and all the cultural decadence of the day—it just seemed that the story really lined up when I looked at it that way." In Mayer's vision, the Duke becomes a Las Vegas celebrity with his own casino; Rigoletto is a kind of hanger-on, living with Gilda out in the desert; Sparafucile is a trenchcoat-wearing thug; and Monterone is one of the Arab sheiks who started coming to Las Vegas at this time. There were some challenges in carrying through the approach. "As
well as it lined up for Vegas to equal
the Duke's world, and as beautifully as the big story points seemed to fall into place," Mayer says, "there were moments where we struggled to come up with concepts that would work out line by line and action by action. In the abduction scene, one of my favorite solutions is to use elevators instead of the ladder that usually leads over the wall into Rigoletto's home. Also, we have a car
to take Gilda's body away at the end, instead of lugging her to the river in a sack. The idea that you'd dump the body in the trunk of a car and drive it to some little gulch somewhere way out in the desert seemed really probable to me." But Mayer is quick to point out that the Vegas setting is not a stunt. Instead, the director understands it as an incisive way to bring Verdi's indictment of moral decay to the fore. Rigoletto, of course, was originally titled La Maledizione, or "The Curse," but it's a bit of a stretch for modern audiences to feel the urgency of such an archaic plot-driver. In a sense, Mayer's updating restores the immediacy of Verdi's key concerns. "I really believe that the intent behind each action in
the opera translates beautifully to the world that we're creating," he says. "This fascination we have with Vegas
as this place to escape the rigor and responsibilities of our daily lives—what plays in Vegas stays in Vegas—is all well and good. But there are consequences to actions that get out of hand. And I think that this opera really speaks to the danger and the potential tragedy inside that kind of irresponsibility." For audiences jumping aboard this joyride of a production, there's also Verdi's unstoppable score, as fresh, hummable, and psychologically revealing as it was in 1851. Mayer is not unaware of the risks involved in upending a classic in his Met debut. But he's clearheaded, even energized about the prospect. "It's daunting to take on a beloved classic
like this and approach it in such a bold way, but it's also really liberating," he says. "I know that the opera is a great classic because of its ability to sustain itself in the face of hundreds and hundreds of different interpretations
over the years. It's like a Shakespeare play. If something is a great work of
art, it can sustain itself and reveal new elements every single time you see it." —Matt Dobkin This article was first published in the Met's Playbill and online in January 2013.

The Rheintochter (Rhine Maiden) R I was an experimental German two-stage anti-aircraft missile tested in the last year of World War II. It was also one of the largest solid-fuel rockets of the war and produced the largest thrust, although for a very short duration. Due to its inadequate altitude ceiling, it was to be supplanted by the R III model, a liquid-fuel missile with two side-mounted solid-fuel boosters, but only six of those were ever launched.
This section is the steel nose with fin-mounting brackets for an incomplete Rheintochter, as the missile lacks a guidance section. The Smithsonian acquired it as part of the massive gift of World War II artifacts from the U.S. Air Force in 1949.

Why don't printers last ??
by henry higgins - 11/14/05 2:41 AM
My last printer, an Epson, didn't even last 2 years.
I now have a Canon S750 printer, about 3 years old. I don't print high volumes, maybe 300 A4 sheets per year, including some photos. I have been quite happy with it, but it has now stopped printing colour correctly. Over the course of about 10 full colour prints it went from perfect to streaky, then to hardly coloured at all. It still prints just fine in black.
I ran through all of the maintenance tasks, including head alignments, deep cleaning etc.,twice but to no avail. I renewed all 4 ink cartridges, but still no good.
Am I right in thinking that my only remaining options are a new printhead, or a new printer?
As far as I can see printheads cost about 60% of the cost of a comparable new printer. so it hardly seems worth it.
Am I missing something? Is there anything else I can try?
By the way, I have tried to economise by not using Canon original ink cartridges. Is that likely to have caused my problem?

TomTom Introduces Lifetime Traffic Updates in North America
Jan 07 2010
~Feature to be incorporated in wide range of TomTom devices throughout 2010~
Concord, MA – January 7, 2010 – TomTom, the world's leading provider of navigation solutions and digital maps, today announces that it will offer Lifetime Traffic Updates, a new feature that allows customers to automatically receive traffic updates during the useful life of the device. This feature will be incorporated into a range of TomTom products in 2010 and will deliver accurate, reliable, traffic data directly to the user's TomTom device.
"Traffic is one of the most common inconveniences every driver experiences," said Jocelyn Vigreux, president of TomTom Inc. "Now, using Lifetime Traffic Updates, TomTom users can always travel confidently knowing they will be alerted to the most current traffic information."
The service combines real-time speed data from over one million drivers across North America - including commercial fleets and regular drivers with GPS systems - combined with information from DoT and Proprietary Traffic Cameras, DoT Speed Sensors, Airborne/Mobile Spotter Vehicles, Digital Scanners that cover many local emergency services, Police Callouts, and Traffic "Tip Lines".
Users will receive traffic updates through a traffic receiver that is innovatively designed into the device's power cord. By simply connecting the TomTom device to the power cord, users will be automatically alerted to traffic situations en route, such as traffic jams or accident delays.
Traffic alerts are clearly displayed in the traffic bar on the right hand side of the screen and more detailed information can be found in other dedicated screens. Additionally, users will receive audible traffic notifications concerning any changing traffic conditions that arise along their route. TomTom Lifetime Traffic Updates include incident data - such as accidents, road construction and closures - and accurate traffic flow speed data. Traffic coverage is provided nationwide, covering 93 metropolitan markets including four cities in Canada.
The Most Optimal Routing Available
Lifetime Traffic Updates will also leverage TomTom's proprietary IQ Routes™ Technology, which enables users to always drive the smartest and most efficient routes, whenever or wherever they go. IQ Routes Technology calculates routes based on historical speed measurements for every time of day and for every road segment, from large highways to small local roads. With TomTom Lifetime Traffic Updates and IQ Routes Technology, users will be alerted to traffic situations that arise on their route and will be given the fastest alternate route to get to their destination.
The new Lifetime Traffic Updates will be bundled with a range of TomTom devices starting in early Q2, 2010.

A lightweight AV for a netbook, other than Avast?
by Sunsetlover - 11/1/12 10:33 AM
A few days ago I disabled Avast temporarily to install something, restarted computer, and since then Avast is blocking Chrome.
I can only run Chrome if I disable Avast. Tried unistalling/reinstalling both Avast and Chrome, no luck. Also tried tweaks like disabling sandbox.
IE 8 works fine btw, but I'd like to get back to Chrome.
So now it's time to try another AV. But it has to be light on resources as it's for a 1 GB netbook. Any suggestions?

Back-up film door assembly that was to have been used on planned second Apollo Telescope Mount (ATM). This door provided access for renewing instrument film supply by astronauts. The ATM was the major scientific instrument aboard Skylab, which was put into Earth orbit in May 1973 and operated for 8 months. ATM included eight major scientific instruments as well as a number of smaller experiments, and were designed to be operated and serviced by three sets of visiting astronauts. These instruments observed the sun in a broad range of the spectrum from the visual through the x-ray regions. ATM also included a white-light coronagraph, which examined the Sun's outermost atmosphere. It was transferred to NASM by NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in 1986.

Dear Friends:
The President's Associates is a leadership giving community comprised of grateful alumni, proud parents, committed faculty and staff, and dear friends of the college. Our community is 800 strong, and each one of us makes a tangible difference in the lives of Ithaca College's students.
As national co-chairs of this distinguished group, we want to offer our appreciation for your contributions as a member of our esteemed community. We also want to encourage you to become more deeply involved.
We met at IC during the summer of 1967, fell in love, and married two years later, graduating in 1970. While we adored our time at Ithaca, we felt disconnected for many years after our graduation. When we reconnected several years ago, we fell in love with IC all over again.
Having spent most of our careers in higher education, we appreciate the importance of a great college experience. It's not just about excellent academic content, but also the importance of integrating what is learned in the classroom with what occurs throughout the college experience. Ithaca College is committed to further enhancing the "whole package" with its strategic vision, IC 20/20.
We've come to appreciate the three important and overlapping phases of a full life: learning, earning, and returning. We hope that you will join us as active, engaged, and committed members of the President's Associates. You are part of a spectacular collective effort, and we hope you will take full advantage of your membership by engaging in the conversation and helping to set the tone for a strong and vibrant future for IC.
Once again, thank you for your investment in this institution, its students, and one another.

There's making a joyful noise unto the Lord and then there's Least of These, the hard-charging band bringing its rock ministry to Gastonia next week for the annual 180 Weekend, the worship and fellowship event for middle and high school students.
The band, based in the Dallas, Tex., area, plays a brand of post-hardcore indie rock some traditionalists might not accept as Christian music. They've heard it all before, said bass player Chase Record.
While Record knows their music can come off as loud and aggressive, he said it's all about glorifying God.
"I came from a traditional Baptist church out in the middle of nowhere in east Texas," Record said in a phone interview last week. "They were very against bringing in anything other than a piano in church. I understood why. They thought it distracted from worship. But kids want something different and something that will grab their attention."
The band formed in October 2010 and settled into its current lineup last year. Original members include brothers William "T.J." and Tyler Collins on drums and guitar, respectively. Record joined in 2011 and guitarist Jonny Gore is the newest member.
Least of These takes its name from Matthew 25:40 – "And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me."
"We mainly started out as having a big heart for the homeless and people that are beaten up, downcast and broken," T.J. Collins said. "Those are the people we really want to minister to."
The 180 Weekend is one of the band's first steps in expanding its ministries beyond the Texas border. It's in the midst of a $16,000 Kickstarter campaign to fund its upcoming CD, "Change Will Come," set to be recorded in March. The band is planning an East Coast in June ("We'd love to come back to Bethlehem Church this summer," Collins said) and a West Coast swing in August to promote the CD.
Last May, the band joined up with the nonprofit Come and Live !, a missions-based organization for Christian musicians.
"We're going to try to do what the Lord wants us to do and go from there," Collins said. "We do not want to be rock stars or anything like that. We want to be vessels and servants."
Breakable: From Routine to Revival
180 Weekend is a cross-denominational worship and fellowship event for middle and high school students and combines large group worship and small group Bible study. It starts Wednesday with middle and high school kickoffs and continues next weekend with separate events for middle school and high school students at Gastonia's Parkwood Baptist and Bethlehem Baptist churches, respectively, as well as small group sessions and sleepovers at host homes throughout the county.
The Lineup
The weekend will feature Christian speakers and bands. In addition to Least of These, who will perform for the high school students, the lineup includes:
Brian Burgess is a student speaker and evangelist who will share his story of how he transformed from a rebellious teenager into a man passionate about God.
Gabe Norris. Norris, the co-founder and vice president of Connect Ministries and director of WinShape Camps for Communities, will speak to middle school students.
Mark and Clarissa. The husband and wife worship team from North Point Community Church in Atlanta returns to 180 Weekend after helping lead middle school worship at last year's event.
'Breaking Out of the Normal Everyday'
This year's theme, "Breakable: From Routine to Revival," will encourage participants to break out of routines that can bring about spiritual dullness. During their small group sessions, students will learn they should expect God to break into their lives, to inspect everything about their lives, to allow God into their lives and to demonstrate their spiritual revival.
"It's talking about how so much of what we do in life is we go on autopilot and keep doing the same things because we've always done them," said Kevin Weisman, associate pastor at South Point Baptist Church in Belmont. "This is about breaking out of the normal everyday and focusing on a personal relationship with Christ."
Keeping It Social
Teens can stay connected with everything 180 Weekend by liking 180 Weekend on Facebook and by following @180Weekend on Twitter. For more information about the event, visit www.180weekend.com.
Share your 180 Weekend experience by sending @ GastonGazette your Twitter pictures and comments with #gastonfaith

Timmy Reyes
Timmy Reyes has the total package. He is a smooth, powerful surfer who loves cold water, and likes to take on big, powerful waves. There are no secrets to Tim's success so far -- he simply surfs hard and loves the sport.
Even though Timmy Reyes moved to the beach and started surfing at 9 years old, much later than others on tour, the Huntington Beach, Calif. transplant has been making waves on the ASP World Tour since he arrived in 2005. A regular footer, Timmy flies under the radar most of the time, choosing to travel alone, and explore private surfing spots with close friends.
When the Reyes family moved to Huntington Beach from West Covina, Calif., they had a love
for the ocean, and Timmy entered the Junior Lifeguards program. In high school, after he placed second in his very first competition, Timmy realized surfing was his calling and he quickly became a trophy hunting machine.
Growing up in Huntington taught him how to fight and scramble for waves in the crowded surf, making the man-on-man heat format of the WCT tour seem like an everyday surf session.
Spending time with good friends and mentors also helped Timmy progress faster. Guys like O'Neill teammate Bobby Martinez, Anthony Petruso, and Micah Byrne helped make him who he is today in the water.
In 2007, after a huge floater and a misplaced foot, Timmy tore his knee and required a complete replacement of his ACL, MCL and meniscus . Through rehab and hard work, he made it back on tour in 2008 and had what he calls a "sleepy year." Contrary to his words, Timmy still took third in the 2008 Pipeline Masters that year, proving to the world that a devastating injury can't even slow him down.
Being a professional athlete is no easy task, and living out of a duffel bag makes even the most unique places tiresome. However, Timmy takes it all in stride. His sense of humor and positive perspective on life allows him to live in the moment and enjoy what comes his way.
These days, he spends the majority of his time focusing on improving and separating himself from others at contests in order to have the upper hand. Having recently hired a personal
coach, Timmy is working on getting more out of his heats and improving his endurance in the water. All of this is helping him get to the state of mind that he competes best in: focused and calm.
With his quick thinking and fast improvisation in contest surfing, Timmy Reyes is someone to keep an eye out for on the podium.
Timmy Reyes started surfing at the age of nine in Huntington Beach, California. After a stint on the ASP World Tour, Timmy chose the road less traveled and now spends his time surfing remote, isolated, cold-water destinations. For Timmy it's not about crowds or contests, but rather the exploration and travel into the unknown where he truly feels alive.
The latest Timmy Missions to grace the new year was a road trip with fellow O'Neill team rider Ian Crane. The two drove up the coast from California to Canada. They endured frigid waters, hangovers, decent waves and a good mission.
3am was the wake up call for this Timmy Mission. We knew the swell was rising and the wind was going to blow 20 offshore. The morning started as most do, double shot of espresso and pastry from Starbucks (luckily we found one that was open at that time of morning). We made it to our destination by sunrise, high on coffee, and hoping our predictions were right. First glances, Timmy wasn't too impressed but decided to hop in the water and hope for the best. Hours went by with the wind swirling……onshore, offshore, onshore, offshore. Suddenly, a really hot 20kt offshore wind blew that stuck for the entire day. From that moment on, the few humans lucky enough to be in the water probably had one the best sessions of their lives. For Timmy it was another day in the life of nomad.
The Ke Nui Tour is an edit documenting the teams stay on the North Shore of Oahu from the months of November and December. It showcases the highs & lows, the beatings, the bruises, the reef massages, and most of all the triumph.
The video hosts a star-studded crew of Global, US and Australian team riders: Jordy Smith, Cory Lopez, Timmy Reyes, Nate Yeomans, Torrey Meister, Brett Barley, Ian Crane, Soli Bailey, Eli Olson, Nils Schweizer, Jake Kelley, Colt Ward and Robbie McCormick.
Click here for more photos from Hawaii.
O'NEILL x OHANA is a piece created to really highlight our athletes. The word Ohana means family in Hawaiian and everyone in this short film has spent countless years riding for the same brand we call O'Neill. Jordy Smith, Ian Crane, Timmy Reyes, Cory Lopez, and John John Florence (as seen in order) all feature their best waves from the time they spent on this rock called Hawaii. It's 8 minutes full of gold and you don't want to miss the end section with JJF. If you ain't having fun, then what the hell are you doing? Enjoi these next 8 minutes. Might blow your mind… Press Play.This is a short film starring Team O'Neill.
John John had the highest two wave score of the day. This photo incorporates it all.
Even though Ian Crane lost in the trials his performance was spot on.
Timmy Reyes is known for his man carves and used them to his advantage.
Jake Davis was blowing up! Unfortunately he could not pull through during final round of the trials.
As day one came to a wrap, John John Florence, Cory Lopez, and Timmy Reyes have advanced to round 2 and are one step closer to the win. Stay tuned for tomorrow's update.

De Quervain's tenosynovitis (dih-kwer-VAINS ten-oh-sine-oh-VIE-tis) is a painful condition affecting the tendons on the thumb side of your wrist. If you have de Quervain's tenosynovitis, it will probably hurt every time you turn your wrist, grasp anything or make a fist.
Although the exact cause of de Quervain's tenosynovitis isn't known, any activity that relies on repetitive hand or wrist movement — such as working in the garden, playing golf or racket sports or lifting your baby — can make it worse.
Symptoms of de Quervain's tenosynovitis include:
If the condition goes too long without treatment, the pain may spread farther into your thumb, back into your forearm or both. Pinching, grasping and other movements of your thumb and wrist aggravate the pain.
Consult your doctor if you're still having problems with pain or function and you've already tried:
If the pain continues to interfere with your daily life or activities, seek medical advice.
Chronic overuse of your wrist is commonly associated with de Quervain's tenosynovitis.
When you grip, grasp, clench, pinch or wring anything in your hand, you use two major tendons in your wrist and lower thumb. These tendons normally glide unhampered through the small tunnel that connects them to the base of the thumb. If you repeat a particular motion day after day, it may irritate the sheath around the two tendons, causing thickening that restricts the movement of the tendons.
Other causes of de Quervain's tenosynovitis include:
People between the ages of 30 and 50 have a higher risk of developing de Quervain's tenosynovitis than do those in other age groups. The condition is more common in women than in men, and it may be associated with pregnancy. Baby care, which involves using your thumbs as leverage to lift your child hundreds of times a day, may also be associated with the condition.
Jobs or hobbies that involve repetitive hand and wrist motions may contribute to de Quervain's tenosynovitis as well.
If de Quervain's tenosynovitis is left untreated, it may be hard to use your hand and wrist properly. If the affected tendons are no longer able to slide within their tunnel, you may develop a limited range of motion.
Make an appointment with your doctor if you have hand- or wrist-related pain and self-care measures — such as avoiding activities that trigger your pain — aren't helping. After an initial exam, your doctor may refer you to an orthopedist, rheumatologist, hand therapist or occupational therapist.
Here's some information to help you get ready for your appointment, and know what to expect from your doctor.
Below are some basic questions to ask a doctor who evaluates you for wrist- or hand-related symptoms. If any additional questions occur to you during your visit, don't hesitate to ask.
Your doctor is likely to ask you a number of questions. Being ready to answer them may reserve time to go over any points you want to talk about in-depth. Your doctor may ask:
In the time leading up to your appointment, avoid activities that cause or worsen your pain. To relieve your pain, try using nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and applying ice to the affected area.
To diagnose de Quervain's tenosynovitis, your doctor will examine your hand to see if you feel pain when pressure is applied on the thumb side of the wrist.
Your doctor will also perform a test called the Finkelstein test. In a Finkelstein test, you bend your thumb across the palm of your hand and bend your fingers down over your thumb. Then you bend your wrist toward your little finger. If this causes pain on the thumb side of your wrist, you likely have de Quervain's tenosynovitis.
Imaging tests, such as X-rays, generally aren't needed to diagnose de Quervain's tenosynovitis.
Treatment for de Quervain's tenosynovitis may include medications, physical or occupational therapy, or surgery. Treatment is generally successful if begun early on, though the pain may recur if you can't discontinue the repetitive motions that aggravate your condition. If you start treatment early on, your symptoms of de Quervain's tenosynovitis should generally improve within four to six weeks. When de Quervain's tenosynovitis starts during pregnancy, symptoms usually get better around the end of pregnancy or when breast-feeding stops.
To reduce pain and swelling, your doctor may recommend using NSAIDs, such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB, others) and naproxen (Aleve).
Your doctor may also recommend injections of corticosteroid medications into the tendon sheath to reduce swelling. If treatment begins within the first six months of symptoms, most people recover completely after receiving corticosteroid injections, often after just one injection.
Initial treatment of de Quervain's tenosynovitis may include:
You may also see a physical or occupational therapist. These therapists may review your habits and give suggestions on how to make necessary adjustments to relieve stress on your wrists. Your therapist can also teach you exercises focused on your wrist, hand and arm to strengthen your muscles, reduce pain, and limit the irritation of the tendons. The therapist may also make a splint to keep your wrist and thumb from moving if off-the-shelf versions don't fit you well.
If your case is more serious, your doctor may recommend outpatient surgery. Surgery involves a procedure in which your doctor inspects the sheath surrounding the involved tendon or tendons, and then opens the sheath to release the pressure and restore free tendon gliding.
Your doctor will talk to you about how to rest, strengthen and rehabilitate your body after surgery. A physical or occupational therapist may meet with you after surgery to teach you new strengthening exercises and help you adjust your daily routine to prevent future problems.
If you don't need surgery, caring for your condition is much the same as preventing it:

All Falcons See Floor Time as Men's Volleyball Uses Team Effort to Coast Past York 3-0
February 14, 2010
MISENHEIMER, N.C. Pfeiffer University wrapped up play in the 2010 Lucky Dog Invitational with a 3-0 (30-7, 30-15, 30-26) win over visiting York on Sunday afternoon inside the Merner Gym. The Falcons bounced back from an exhibition loss to the Virginia Tech club team on Saturday improving its overall record to 4-3 on the year.
Pfeiffer cruised to a 30-7 set one win hitting .667 as a team. The Falcons eventually coasted to the sweep finish line with wins of 15 and 26 over York. Every member of the active Falcon roster saw playing time on Sunday afternoon.
Eric Edelman (Henrietta, NY) and Jerry Olmeda (Rochester, NY) each had a team-high four kills. Evan Fullerton (Ambridge, PA) had a match-high 19 assists in front of Michael Dhalles (Phelps, NY) 14. Mark Hess (Lebanon, PA) had 14 digs while George Kan (Taipei, TAIWAN) finished with 10.
The Falcons will get back on the court on Thursday night, hosting Mount Olive in another Conference Carolinas match up. Pfeiffer will look for revenge from their 3-0 loss at Mount Olive last week, beginning at 7:30 p.m.

Are these inexpensive Windows CE Netbooks on eBay even worth looking into?
by Lee Koo (ADMIN) - 3/11/11 1:46 PM
Are these inexpensive Windows CE Netbooks on eBay even worth looking into?
My name is Kim and my question may be stupid but here goes
anyway. (Lee's note: No question is stupid.) While on eBay
looking for a used or refurbished laptop/Netbook for my
friend, I kept coming across these Netbooks advertised as
non-branded Netbooks
Really cheap. What are they? The description is as follows:
128RAM, 2GB hard drive? Running Windows CE 6.0. What is Win
CE? Is the hard drive a 2.5 laptop model or something
different? Can the hard drive be upgraded? My friend wants
one but I don't think it is what I term as a "normal"
computer. I asked her to wait and that I would ask the CNET
community about the Netbook first. I'm hoping that someone
can explain what they are, and how they work. I don't want my
friend to be disappointed and waste her money. But I'm really
curious about them myself. I've never seen them advertised
anywhere else either. A 2GB hard drive seems excessively
small as well. All answers will be greatly appreciated. Thank
you CNET community.
