Claudio Reyna is recognized around the world as America's most accomplished soccer player ever. Reyna is currently with Manchester City of the English Premier League and is also captain of the U.S. national team. Reyna is the only American to have played in the top flight of three major European leagues, captaining teams in Germany, Scotland, and England. He is a two-time Olympian (1992 and 1996) and three-time World Cup player for the United States (1994, 1998, 2002), and he was captain of the U.S. team at the 2002 World Cup, their most impressive showing in history.
From backyard games with his brother and nightly practices with his dad, soccer has always been an integral part of Reyna's life. In high school he was named Parade magazine's National Player of the Year at St. Benedict's Prep High School in Newark, New Jersey, in 1989 and 1990 and was New Jersey's State Player of the Year in 1990.
Reyna went on to become one of the most decorated players in college soccer history. He helped lead the University of Virginia to three straight NCAA titles (1991, 1992, and 1993). He was a three-time first-team All-American, won the Missouri Athletic Club's Player of the Year Award in 1992 and 1993, and was awarded Soccer America's Player of the Year Award in 1992 and 1993. He was also named the Soccer America College Player of the Century in 2000.
In 1994, at the age of 21, Reyna signed a pro contract with Germany's Bayer Leverkusen. Three years later he joined VfL Wolfsburg where he became the first American product ever to captain a German first division team. In 1999, Reyna was transferred to the Glasgow Rangers, where he established himself as a key midfielder and veteran team leader. Reyna moved from Glasgow to Sunderland of the English premiership league in December 2001.
Reyna, his wife, Danielle, and their sons, Jack and Giovanni, live in Manchester, England.
Mike Woitalla is the executive editor for Soccer America, where he has worked since 1985. He has covered three World Cups for Soccer America and soccer games in 16 different nations and is the only five-time winner of the NSCAA soccer writing award. He has written freelance articles about soccer for more than 20 publications in six nations. He is a regular contributor to the British soccer monthly, When Saturday Comes.
Woitalla, who has lived in the San Francisco Bay area since 1982, is a graduate of the University of California. He was a member of the Golden Bears varsity soccer team and won a Hawaii state soccer championship with Iolani High School.
Woitalla is married to Holly Kernan, a public radio journalist.
"As one of the most gifted players in U.S. soccer history and national team captain, Claudio Reyna has helped the team to be more successful and competitive internationally. Through his professional experiences in Germany, Scotland, and England, he's become a great pro and a wonderful student of the game. More Than Goals is a special look at what motivates this great player and how he's developed his skills. I highly recommend this book to all soccer enthusiasts."
Bruce Arena
U.S. National Team Coach and Technical Director
"When Claudio's on the field, teammates know he's going to get them the ball and that he'll help them to play better. More Than Goals gives insights into becoming that kind of player."
Landon Donovan
2002 and 2003 U.S. Player of the Year
"A mix of a biography, a national team history, practice exercises and
coaching philosophy. ... a gold mine of recent U.S. and international soccer
Hardy Fuchs, NSCAA Soccer Journal
"A book that inspires and educates."
Luis F. Sanchez, El Nuevo Herald
"Hits the mark as an autobiography, a coaching manual and a non-fiction
book ... by intertwining stories, observations, tips and tidbits in a smooth
easy-to-read story."
PA West Touchline
"Reyna's picked up something useful from every coach and his comments about
how different coaches use particular practice drills to the team's advantage
is helpful to the player and coach at any level."
Tony Edwards, ussoccerplayers.com

We are developing a sneaking suspicion that Harlan County has been removed from the official state maps at the Capitol.
There's really no other way to explain how Gov. Steve Beshear could push a plan he announced last week to widen the Mountain Parkway from Campton to Prestonsburg when Harlan County has much greater transportation needs than the counties scheduled to benefit from the $754 million project. Beshear said the road expansion was vital to the economic growth of the region.
"It's a long-overdue project for which leaders in eastern Kentucky have long advocated, to strengthen the region's ability to attract jobs and visitors," Beshear said at a news conference. To add to the insanity, the plan calls for an expansion of U.S. 460 and KY 114 around the Magoffin-Floyd line to four lanes.
Don't we have anyone in Frankfort these days who can remind the governor that Harlan County's needs, both transportation and economic, are much greater than any of the counties who will benefit from the Mountain Parkway expansion? The last time we looked, Harlan County had one of the state's highest unemployment rates and has been hit harder than anyone by the decline in the coal industry.
There's no way that any county in our state is in more need of a good highway and an economic boost than Harlan. How does it make sense to expand a two-lane state parkway to four lanes in Magoffin and Wolfe counties when Harlan County is still trying to get one decent road, either U.S. 119 to Bell County or U.S. 421 to Perry County. We can't even get the last four miles of U.S. 421 to the Virginia line completed, a decade after it should have been finished.
Harlan County has declined from being the largest county in the eastern half of state in the 1930s because it was bypassed time and time again when other counties benefited from new roads. Hazard and London and Somerset and Pikeville continued to grow from decade to decade because they were tied together through massive highway projects that always bypassed Harlan.
Our county has given so much back to the state for decades with taxes through the coal mined here, helping build infrastructure in other parts of Kentucky. Harlan County's coal miners took all the risks, both with their health and with their lives, and their children and grandchildren received nothing in return, forced to travel the same dangerous roads that we've been stuck with for decades.
The governor is fine with Harlan County and its 30,000 residents being stuck with dangerous two-lane roads but he apparently believes it's a good idea for Wolfe County (Campton) and its 7,000 residents and Magoffin County (Salyersville) and its 13,000 residents to have a four-lane parkway. After a half century of being left behind, it's time for Harlan County and its transportation needs to be addressed. Instead of the Mountain Parkway, the money should go toward a four-lane U.S. 119 from Harlan to Pineville, which would finally make the final section of 119 like the hundreds of miles on the same road between Whitesburg and Charleston, W.Va.
A four-lane road between Harlan and Hazard should be next on the priority list, tying Harlan County to the Hal Rogers Parkway. We're sure the Harlan County Fiscal Court and all our vital and progressive city governments are already drafting letters of complaint to send to Beshear and our legislators, pointing out the long ignored transportation needs of Harlan Countians while asking them to check their maps to determine if we've indeed been kicked out of Kentucky.

"Are you ready for some rock 'n roll, Tulsa?"
Tom grinned at the capacity crowd in the beautiful BOK Center before launching into the opening chords of "American Girl" on his blonde Rickenbacker.
Two teenage blonde girls in the front row shrieked with delight as they recognized the melody of the Heartbreaker hit. A few rows behind them, three college-aged guys bobbed their heads along to the beat while trading smiles and high-fives. A few seats away, an older couple swayed to the music in each others arms, exchanging smiles and knowing glances.
There may be no song more universal than "American Girl." Everyone loves it, which is why Tom likely chooses to end most shows with it on this Mojo tour. It gives every body a chance to dance, a chance to sing and a chance to remember the first time they heard about the girl "raised on promises."
Houston, here we come! Remember to check back for more from the Mojo tour!

The Stormers dramatically beat the Chiefs 36-34 at Newlands.
The win was vital for the Stormers who lost their first two matches and tournament champions the Chiefs will have the comfort of two bonus points, even if they will feel aggrieved at not having being awarded a kickable penalty with the final play of the game.
It was an unfortunate end to a wonderful contest in which both teams played with enterprise and conviction. The Chiefs were the more cynical and lost two players to to the sin bin for professional fouls.
The Stormers, disappointing against the Bulls and dour against the Sharks, finally produced a performance balanced in defence and attack.
Gio Aplon scored twice and Nic Groom finished off a sustained period of Stormers attack to take the Stormers past 30 points, but it needed a fifth Joe Pietesen penalty to give the Stormers a two score cushion in the final 10 minutes.
The Chiefs were outstanding in their attack variation and flyhalf Aaron Cruden unlocked the Stormers defence with astute grubber kicks. Two such kicks resulted in tries but another misfired and the Stormers scored through Aplon.
Stormers No 8 Duane Vermeulen was aggressive and determined as the home forwards fronted the physicality of the Chiefs. Siya Kolisi and Andries Bekker were equally prominent and with the pack playing with early momentum the Stormers halfbacks of Groom and Elton Jantjies played with authority. It was disappointing that both were substituted within an hour.
The Chiefs are a quality side and even on a day in which their discipline was dubious and there was no sustained fluency to their attack they could have scored a bonus point win.
There will be discussion about Pyper's refereeing and the Chiefs will make an argument that the home team got favourable decisions, but that's par for the course in this competition. Pyper was not the reason the Stormers won and he wasn't the reason the Chiefs lost.
The neutral would have settled on a draw because of the entertainment value, but in the context of South Africa's tournament challenge the home team will know it was imperative the spectacle ended with a win.
And fullback Joe Pietersen's unerring boot, in kicking eight from eight, made the win possible, if only just.

Santo Domingo has all the trappings of a major capital.

Santo Domingo is however best expressed and depicted by its 3-million strong heterogeneous, fun-loving and welcoming population. A capital worthy of the name.

Update: The code I used to generate the frames for the animation is now available under the GPL.
The temperature data we have now is not the output of a well-designed measurement process. It could not have been. Throughout time, humans measured and recorded temperatures and weather conditions where they lived and where they traveled.
The GHCN database
has been employed in several international climate assessments, including the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change 4th Assessment Report, the Arctic Climate Impact Assessment, and the State of the Climate report published annually by the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society.
A few years ago, I tried to get an idea of the extent and scope of GHCN data by plotting the temperature series for each individual station.
This time, I decided to not worry about the actual measurements, but just lay out the locations of temperature stations with data in the unadjusted mean file v2.mean.Z every month in the years spanned by the GHCNv2 database.
The result of that effort is the following animation:
Only you can prevent thermometer suicides
From time to time, I and many other more prominent commentators (including, but not limited to, Steve McIntyre, Anthony Watts, E.M. Smith) have noted the disappearance of thermometers from the main temperature data sets.
In case you miss it in the animation, here is what we are talking about:

Everett coffee stand now accepting Bitcoin, a type of digital currency
Dan Bates / The Herald
Marathon Coffee owner, Jim Ruble shows how easy it is to scan his company's electronic Bitcoin code with a smart phone and pay instantly, without fees to him or the customer. Barista Sheri Brisky (background) said customer interest is now picking up, after almost nobody using it.
Dan Bates / The Herald
At Marathon Coffee, owner Jim Ruble and barista Sheri Brisky are accepting Bitcoin, and encouraging customers to use it to save money.
The woman working the stand, Sheri Brisky, had a ready reply, one she's repeated countless times since the sign went up earlier this month.
"It's a digital currency," she said, and then explained how Bitcoin combines decentralization, encryption and transparency to create a secure, reliable system for digitally capturing and conveying value.
Looking up from her Mini Cooper, the customer appeared a little lost.
"It's really not as confusing as it sounds," Brisky said.
In early July, Marathon Coffee became one of the first — and possibly the first — retail businesses in the area to take Bitcoin, a technology that from a user's perspective works like digital money.
After quietly starting in 2009, it has grabbed headlines in recent years. Customers can use bitcoins to pay for goods and service from Overstock.com and the Sacramento Kings, among others. At least one college is taking tuition payment in bitcoins. A relief fund set up following the Oso mudslide took donations in bitcoins. They can be exchanged for just about every major currency.
Individuals can choose from a wide variety of ways to create digital wallets to store bitcoins. Transactions are often done using a smartphone and unique visual identifiers called QR codes. Unlike credit and debit cards, bitcoin transactions do not reveal any information about the consumer.
But all that information is pulled up every time you swipe a debit card at the grocery store or enter a credit card number into a website. Malicious hackers have exploited that weakness. For example, they stole a huge amount of personal financial information by infecting cash registers at Target stores with malicious software.
Advocates say Bitcoin will change how people conduct transactions great and small, from buying a cup of coffee to executing a will.
Skeptics have raised a raft of questions and criticisms, including Bitcoin's legality and potential susceptibility to currency speculation.
It has attracted the attention of everyone from actor Ashton Kutcher, who last year invested in a Bitcoin-related company, to Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman, who last year called it "evil."
For all that attention, Bitcoin is slowly making its way to main street and places like coffee stands in blue-collar Everett.
It was Marathon Coffee co-owner Jim Ruble's idea to start taking bitcoins.
"He's a geek," Brisky, 51, said affectionately.
The couple make their home in Kirkland.
Ruble, 49, has a background in engineering and had been following Bitcoin from a distance for several years. He started paying much closer attention late last year, when the exchange value of a single bitcoin shot up to about $1,200. It has since come down; on Thursday afternoon, it was just over $600.
Despite all the buzz, he wasn't convinced Bitcoin was viable until something happened in February that grabbed headlines around the world: Hackers stole bitcoins worth about $400 million at the time from the largest online exchange, Mt. Gox.
Some quickly said the heist highlighted the system's problems, and it likely scared off many casual observers.
The exchange value of bitcoins fell against the dollar, but the market didn't collapse. People continued using it.
"I thought, 'This isn't a show-stopper. Maybe there is something to this,' " Ruble said.
He now uses bitcoins for online transactions, and earlier this month, Marathon Coffee started accepting the currency.
When a customer uses a credit card or debit card, Marathon Coffee, like all merchants, has to pay fees and service charges.
"It adds up to hundreds of dollars a month," he said.
But the processing costs for taking bitcoins are a small fraction of that, he said.
Unlike Bitcoin, those other payment systems were designed before the Internet, and so it costs more to make them work in the virtual world.
Marathon Coffee finally had its first customer paying with bitcoins last weekend. A Canadian traveler staying at a nearby hotel paid about 0.0067 of a bitcoin — equivalent to $4.25 at the time — for a white chocolate mocha.
Bitcoin doesn't have to be used by everyone to succeed, said Jinyoung Lee Englund, head of communications and marketing for Bitcoin Foundation, a nonprofit advocacy group.
Right now, it is still in its infancy, but it is consistently gaining traction.
So, how will we know when it has moved from the periphery into the mainstream?
Maybe when reporters stop writing articles like this one, Englund said.
Ruble thinks that point is only five or 10 years away.
"I remember the first time I used an ATM; it seemed so foreign. You put in this plastic card and it spits out cash. Before, you had to go in and talk with a person. That's where Bitcoin is now," he said. "It took a few years, but nearly every retailer takes debit cards now."

Overall Happiness
I was thankful that Magnet Street was able to send me previews of my invitation. This way I could see the colors and I was also able to see that I print was too small. When I called to let them know that the program would not let me make the print larger, they got a designer on it right away and sent me a new sample! Everyone that I spoke with on the phone was always so nice and helpful. I am happy with my choice of using them for my wedding invitations.
Very Elegant
These cards are classy and elegant. The flexibility to customize is great and the quality is wonderful.
I was very pleased with my invitations this design is very simple and classic and exactly what I had hoped for!
Picture Perfect Save the Dates!
I am so glad that a friend recommended using Magnet Street for my save the dates! I really enjoyed being able to design and edit the cards, changing the font and style. The Half and Half worked well for me..it was simple but elegant. Also, the picture I chose for the save the date matched perfectly with the colors and font. I was extremely happy with the finished product! The cards had the consistency of a post card and had a lovely, glossy appearance. I am positive that my guests will love my save the dates :)
Simple and Chic
Love the design but found the picture and font to be a little small

Have you heard the myth that black cats are unsafe in October, in part because witches may try to adopt them for rituals? We sure have. But guess what? Top ASPCA experts agree that it's just not true.
At the ASPCA, we LOVE black kitties. (Some of our friendliest cats, like Marissa, are black—yet Marissa has waited more than nine months to find a family. What's up with that?)
Aside from the most important reason to adopt black kitties—that they really need extra help finding homes—here are a few reasons to take home one or two:
- Their fur won't show on your little black dress.
- You can tell your kids you adopted a mini panther.
- Black cats go with everything.
- In most cultures, black cats are a sign of good luck.
- You already know black cats are awesome—you have one at home! If you've got a great black kitty, tell us about him or her in the comments. You just might persuade someone else to give these felines a little extra attention.
I rescued my two black kitties from a feral litter I found near my house (I rescued all of them, but only two were black). They're both all black with yellow eyes. Bosco is a very large, long-haired cat who is so sweet but is sometimes afraid of his own shadow. Matewan is large (i.e., pudgy) medium-haired cat who is both thoughtful and very sweet. They're both 10 years old now, happy and healthy and safe.
I have 2 cats, Zhack and Zhoe and a dog named Koko, all adopted.A few years ago, I adopted my little Zhack for the very reason it was the week before Halloween and I knew no one would adopt him and I was afraid he would get hurt. He was the only black cat and not the pretiest of the bunch I had to chose from but nevertheless I wanted to protect him. He has repaid me back exponentially, as he is the sweetest, warmest, most loving cat I have ever had. So please adopt black cats, their fur is so shiny and their eyes are beautiful!
I adopted my black Bombay from the ASPCA in October 2009, and let me tell you that it was the best decision of my life!! I have never had such a strong connection with a pet. He has a "dog-like" personality where he plays fetch for hours and even sits on command!! He cuddles with every person that comes into my house and changes the minds of every person that was once weary about cats. I love my Dexter Halloween so much! Save the black kitties!
After a feral mama had 4 gorgeous kittens under the porch of a Victorian home where I rent the entire upstairs, we had 3 beautiful shiny black babies and a gray. I found homes for 2 of the black kittens but ending up adopting the gray male and a black female. They are both wonderful, but the black girl has the most endearing ways of putting her dear back up close to you and making sure her "question-mark tail" catches your attention first! That way she makes sure she gets the first round of petting! I had never owned a blackie but would highly recommend that everyone consider it!
i was looking for a new Kitten after my elderly tiger went to her reward. i ended up adopting a 9ish month old black juvenile named Bear. my heart just broke when the humane society volunteer told me that he had been found outside of the doors and had been in at the shelter ever since. he is big and beautiful, a little clumsy but just a lover. i am an advocate for black kitties.
I was lucky enough to adopt my black cat, Ellie, 6 years ago! She has been a great addition to our family and I wouldn't trade her for the world.
I just made a black cat a part of my family. He was a stray that I had been feeding along with a couple of other strays. At first I thought he was feral because he wouldn't come anywhere near me. Gradually he started rubbing up against me when I put the food down and then he would follow my dog and I when we went for a walk. Because we have foxes in the area, I worked with a local group to find homes for the three strays and because the little black boy (who I named Ebony) became so attached to my dog and I, I kept him. He is the funniest, cuddliest cat ever. He gets along great with my other cats but his favorite "brother" is still Bailee, the dog!
I have had my Ebony for almost 4 years now and could not ask for a sweeter, loving cat. He is "mama's boy" through and through. Is afraid of his own shadow at times then gets right in your face the next. I have lost and 18 and 14 year olds within the last year, but when the time is right for a new addition, trust me Ebony and Ivory will welcome another black beauty into the fold.
My husband and I surprised our daughter with two black kittens for her birthday. We've had them almost four years now and they are wonderful. Because our daughter loves Halloween, she named them Boo and Shadow. They truly have brought such love and laughter in to our lives. And they are just beautiful animals!
My black cat "Ninja" was my dear friend for 19 plus yrs. Black cats are wonderful family members.

Sapphire, the single crystal form of alumina (Al2O3), was first synthesized more than a century ago, but the most exciting advances associated with this versatile material are taking place today. Shaped by the dual forces of application demands and technological advances in the fabrication and finishing process, synthetic sapphire is often the material of choice for design engineers dealing with extreme conditions of high temperature, high pressure and harsh chemical environments.

Let it travel with you
Sometimes, big things come in small packages. We know how cliche that sounds, but in the case of the Portland Design Works Little Silver Pump, it's completely fitting. When it's not traveling in your pocket, the Little Silver is capable of high pressure inflation. And when you add in a gorgeous design with bamboo and CNC'd accents, the Little Silver becomes an exception to every rule.
Portland Design Works' Little Silver Pump is made from a mix of forged and CNC-machined aluminum alloy. This construction provides a few distinct advantages -- lighter weight, increased durability, and a beautiful finish. Starting with weight, the Little Silver tips the scales around an ultralight 85g. And considering that the 190mm body provides phenomenal leverage, and thus greater output, it weighs very little for the power of inflation that it renders. For durability, the forging process means everything. During forging, the aluminum is shaped throughout the process (instead of being set in a cast) creating a continuous grain throughout the body. This heightens its strength characteristics, ensuring that the Little Silver will outlast you.
The pump gets its name from the small, polished, and nearly-mirrored body finish. At the end of the main cylinder, you'll find the pump head. PDW has made it a breeze to switch between Schrader and Presta by including a three-piece, interchangeable assembly. The head itself is made from CNC'd aluminum and features a forged alloy lock lever that secures the head to the valve to prevent air from escaping. The system requires minimal effort, and with the carved bamboo handle, you're guaranteed to experience a smooth and efficient inflation process for either valve type.
The Portland Design Works Little Silver Pump is available in the color Silver and in a 190mm (7.5in) size. The pump also includes a Silver mounting bracket. PDW recommends the Little Silver for high pressure/low volume tires.

The folks over at PDW are real smart. This pump is built like a rifle so you can totally disassemble and service or replace a broken part. Thus this product will last a long time : )
Great pump - Great company!

The 2.5.1 release is coming about a month after the 2.5.0 release. Despite the short release cycle, we have included a number of new enhancements to Groovy-Eclipse's DSLD support.
You can use the following update site sto install this release:
And a zipped version of the update site is available at:
- Eclipse 3.7 support
- groovy-eclipse-compiler for Maven
- DSL Descriptor enhancements
- Built-in AST transforms recognized in the editor
- Launch configurations
- Compatibility
- Bug fixes
- What's next?
Eclipse 3.7 support
With the 2.5.1 release, Eclipse 3.7 has become the main development branch. Although we have been releasing 3.7-based versions of Groovy-Eclipse for a while, it has not been our primary release until now. We will continue to support the Eclipse 3.6-based version of Groovy-Eclipse, but it will no longer be the main branch of our development.
groovy-eclipse-compiler for Maven
We have released the groovy-eclipse-compiler for Maven that let's you use the Groovy-Eclipse compiler in your maven projects. This provides a more robust way of compiling mixed Groovy-Java projects with Maven than previous approaches have allowed. See all the documentation at the Groovy-Eclipse compiler plugin for Maven page.
DSL Descriptor enhancements
Most of the DSLD enhancements are centered around sharing DSLD files among multiple projects in the workspace. For those of you unfamiliar with DSLDs, please read the Better DSL Support in Groovy-Eclipse blog post.
Groovy DSL Support classpath container
All Groovy projects will have the Groovy DSL Support classpath container added automatically. No production code is in the classpath container. It is only meant to contain DSLD files. Inside, there are two class folders:
global_dsld_support and
plugin_dsld_support, described below.
Global DSLDs
global_dsld_support folder points to
${user.home}/.groovy/greclipse/global_dsld_support. It is meant to contain DSLDs that should be shared amongst all projects in the workspace. You can place any DSLD files here and it will be picked up by Groovy-Eclipse. Actually, it's not that easy...because of Eclipse Bug 346928, you must go to Preferences -> Groovy -> DSLD and click Recompile before the new scripts will be found:
Plugin DSLDs
plugin_dsld_support folder points to
${eclipse.home}/plugins/org.codehaus.groovy${active.groovy.version}/plugin_dsld_support. This folder contains the DSLD files that are shipped with this installation of Groovy-Eclipse. Since these files will be changed and updated on each upgrade, it is not recommended that users edit these files.
Controlling the Classpath container
It is possible to manually add and remove the Groovy DSL Support classpath container by clicking on a groovy project and selecting add/remove Groovy DSL Support:
Alternatively, if you do not want the classpath container added automatically to any project, you can disable this in the Eclipse preferences -> Groovy -> DSLD:
Multiple DSLDs of same name
In order to support an eco-system of DSLDs and be able to gracefully handle the conflicts that could occur when multiple versions of a single DSLD exist in a project, Groovy-Eclipse now uses the following heuristics when looking for DSLDs:
- All DSLDs with the same name are considered the same, regardless of which folder or jar they are located in.
- DSLDs that exist in the project (i.e., not in a jar file and not coming from a binary class folder) take precedence.
- After that, the classpath ordering takes precedence. In other words, a DSLD located in a jar at the beginning of the classpath will take precedence over a DSLD located in a jar at the end of the classpath.
- If multiple versions of a single DSLD file is located in the project or in a single classpath entry, then an arbitrary one is chosen. The others are ignored.
Disabling DSLD support
It is possible to completely disable DSLD support. You can do this from the preferences -> Groovy -> DSLD page:
Built-in AST transforms recognized in the editor
Groovy-Eclipse now ships with several built-in DSLD files that handle some built-in AST transforms like
@Mixin, and
@Singleton. Additionally, support exists for Swing Builder. The Groovy DSL Support classpath container must be added to your project in order for this support to be available. For example. here is the singleton transform in use:
And here is swing builder in use:
All hovers over swing builder components have links to full documentation.
What to expect for the future of DSLDs
As we gain more experience with DSLDs, we are learning more about the areas of DSLDs that need improvements. As we make changes to DSLD support, we will try hard to maintain backwards compatibility as well as be clear about which parts of the language have been deprecated. There are a number of things that we will be working on.
- Pointcut changes: we are realizing that a number of pointcuts are poorly named and there are others that are ambiguous or superfluous. Expect some changes with the names of available pointcuts. We will try to keep old pointcuts available, but just mark them as deprecated.
- Compatibility changes: IntelliJ's GDSLs solve a similar problem that DSLDs solve. However, the syntax is different. We are in discussion with the IntelliJ's Groovy team to see if there is a way of unifying the syntax of the two languages. This is a long-term goal and may not be ready for the 2.5.2 release. This will require some more significant changes to the syntax, but as much as possible, we will try to ensure that the old syntax still works.
Launch configurations
The Groovy Script launcher is now more robust. Upgrading Groovy-Eclipse versions will not break existing launch configurations. Furthermore, these launch configurations can be saved as files in a project and committed into a VCS to be shared between developers.
Groovy-Eclipse 2.5.1 includes Groovy 1.7.10 by default. Groovy 1.8.0 can be optionally installed. Groovy-Eclipse is installable on STS 2.7.0, Eclipse 3.7.0, 3.6.0, 3.6.1, or 3.6.2. There are different update sites for Groovy-Eclipse targeting Eclipse 3.6 and 3.7. See above for the update sites.
Bug fixes
There have been 30 bug fixes in this release. You can see all of them in the Codehaus issue tracker.
What's next?
We appreciate all community support and feedback. If you wish to join the discussion about Groovy-Eclipse then please sign up for the mailing list. For any issues you have (or enhancements you would like to see), please raise them in our issue tracker. If there is an existing bug fix or enhancement that you require are not seeing any movement on, please make some noise on it (and get your friends to do the same). We respond to community feedback, and we can make the most improvements to Groovy-Eclipse when we hear directly from the community. So, please speak up!

|Be Careful of Sizing
|Reviewed By Philippa, 16 Oct 2014
I bought these slippers from a different supplier. I am a female size 9 so most of the time I have to buy mens shoes. i really liked the way these slippers had the furry lining around the neck and they had a lovely design. However, the Medium 'apparently' is a UK 8-9.5. Well, it's not. Don't waste your time if like me you have 'yeti feet' and actually fancy some feminine slippers. Trust your instincts - a female medium is never going to be big enough for size 9 feet no matter what it says on the packaging. Just hoping I can get a refund on mine...
|Best slippers ever
|Reviewed By Julie, 14 Feb 2014
Have been wanting a pair of these slippers since my partner got some 2 years ago. He had the hard wearing plastic traction guard on the soles which I also desperately wanted but they are hard to get in womens and very expensive. After a lot of searching on the internet I happened to stumble across these in the sale in my local store. They are seriously warm, only ever having cheap slippers in the past, you notice the difference straight away. They are also comfortable and feel quite hard wearing. I love them. I would say the sizing is strange though. I am a 4, and the xs which is what covers that were too tight, so I went up to s and they are great, so just be aware when buying otherwise it could be an inconvenience. Overall very pleased. Especially since they were half price! I won't be buying any other slippers from now on.
|Great for winter round the house

Bought these for my wife today because she was jealous of mine, they look great and keep your feet nice and warm!
|Perfect toasty makers!

Just got these slippers as a Christmas gift, cant take them off so comfortable, cosy and warm with out making your feet sweaty. The fur around the edge gives a brilliant finish. Very impressed!

i bought these for my wife and she hasn't taken them off since! very warm and hard wearing, great buy.
|The last pair of slippers you will buy!
|Reviewed By Mike, 15 Dec 2011
I bougth my wife these because she kept taking mine to use! I have owned my pair for two years! that are amazingly hard wearing, great out camping or at home & very warm, barring any major disasters or a partner " stealing them" these will be the last pair of slippers you will ever buy! fantastic

About SRSRoot
SRS-Root is an easy to use solution for rooting your android device, the software contains multiple exploits to gain root access on your device.
Why Root
Let's start with why you would want to root your Android smartphone. Sometimes apps require special permission that the Android OS, which is based on Linux doesn't allow. These could be simple as taking a screenshot to higher level permissions to the core Android files. Rooting makes your phone faster, increases battery life, allows it to run more apps, custom software and ROMs which allow complete control over every aspect of your device by allowing superuser and admin level permission. Removing carrier bloatware is a particularly enticing application.
However, rooting isn't for everyone. If you don't know what a command prompt is or you have trouble handling .zip files, please don't root. The risk of bricking your expensive device to get speed gains and improvements only Android enthusiasts can appreciate is not worth it. Lastly, rooting can void your phone's warranty so please make sure you follow instructions to the letter. Also, back up your data before you root android!
Free to download, free to use
SRSRoot is free of any charges, you can download te latest version HERE.

From an announcement of a newly published book on Krautrock: "With detailed discographies of all the bands featured and a timeline sighting important political and social events…"
cite/site/sight has been mentioned in the Eggcorn Forum
( http://eggcorns.lascribe.net/forum/view … p?pid=2247 ) as an example of "Homonyms that are likely misspelling of each other, but might also be a source for eggcorns".
I would argue that "sighting" for "citing" as in my example above is a real eggcorn. Sighting (to see something) is close enough in meaning to citing (to point out something) that it kind of makes sense, while not really being synonymous. It's easy to imagine that the writer confused the meanings, not just the spellings. I believe that, along with the identical pronunciation, this qualifies it as an eggcorn.
What say y'all?
I think your cite/sight example is a legitimate eggcorn. I also think there are plenty of legitimate eggcorns derived from sight/site … particularly when preceding unseen.
It's fascinating that this triple homophone possesses at least two distinct eggcorns. Can we find the third leg to the triangle?

Good question, jorkel! Googling "site any examples" yielded about 19,000 hits, of which fully half of the sample I read (i.e., 10 of the 20 hits on the first two pages), used "site" for "cite". Possibly just a misspelling or a non-eggcornish misuse of homonyms in every case, I suppose, but consider this one: "Can you site any examples of what commercial / office land is selling for in the CBD of state college borough?" It seems possible that, in the context of discussing building sites, the use of the word "site" was at least partly due to a meaning connection in the writer's mind, thus perhaps qualifying this case as an eggcorn?
One of my favorites was of an Arizona highway patrolman citing a cougar on Oracle Road near El Conquistador, about 15 years ago now. (We figured it must have been doing 30 mph in a 20 mph zone or something.) It would have been less remarkable, perhaps, had it been a Cougar.
*If the human mind were simple enough for us to understand,
we would be too simple-minded to understand it* .
I just encountered another one of these today: "There are a lot of important British groups that sight Faust as an influence too." (from an online chat-list devoted to the musical group Faust). I did a search on Eggcorn Database and discovered that I'd already started this thread some time ago and forgotten about it (and of course this thread isn't the first mention of sight/cite on the Eggcorn Forum).
Plenty of ghits for "insight violence", "insightment to violence" and the like.
Semantic justification? Sarah Palin's gunsights apart, I can see why 'insight' might mean 'make visible the possibility of/show'. It's not much to do with the 'insight' of 'gain insight'.

(Cue up the annoying Geico "Hump Day!!" camel ad. I'm just not a fan. Hope that doesn't offend anyone, and if it does … well, deal with it.)
But back to more important matters. Now that it's just three days away from Auburn's season opener, we've already settled into a routine here at War Eagle Extra as far as weekly content is concerned. I'll post the finalized schedule soon enough, but until that happens, take note: Every Wednesday, "7 at 7″ will consist of links from around the SEC, both Auburn and otherwise.
Without further ado, I give you today's batch of items from around the league:
1. To keep with a time-honored tradition (dating back to last month), I'll begin by shamelessly self-promoting the things posted to the blog the previous day, beginning with Auburn head coach Gus Malzahn's declaration that Tre Mason and Cameron Artis-Payne are neck-and-neck at the top of the running back depth chart heading into Saturday. We also had wire-to-wire video coverage of Malzahn's 16-minute press conference as well as a feature on left guard Alex Kozan. Oh, and don't forget Tuesday's notebook, which detailed Malzahn's intrigue regarding Nick Marshall's debut in an Auburn uniform.
2. Josh Kendall, the South Carolina beat writer for The State in Columbia, S.C., had an interesting article on Tuesday. As hard as it is to believe, the Gamecocks have only five seniors (!!!) listed on this year's roster. Kendall explains how that came to be. And ESPN.com SEC blogger Chris Low had a good piece on Kelcy Quarles, one of South Carolina's "other" defensive linemen, who is trying to do whatever he can to escape the long shadow of Jadeveon Clowney.
3. You've probably heard about the GQ profile on Nick Saban. If you haven't read it yet, here's your chance. It doesn't disappoint, making Saban out to be the maniac everyone would think given his normal joyless demeanor.
4. Just how good is Robert Nkemdiche, the unquestioned top recruit in the Class of 2013? Hugh Kellenberger of the Jackson Clarion-Ledger tries to find an answer.
5. Speaking of highly-regarded recruits, LSU picked up a massive commitment for its 2015 class on Monday. The Tigers were able to keep hometown running back Nicholas Brossette to stay in Baton Rouge. An Auburn target, he also had offers from Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Florida, Mississippi State, Notre Dame, Ole Miss, Tennessee, UCLA and Vanderbilt — just to name a few — after he rushed for a school-record 2,118 yards and 44 touchdowns as a sophomore last season.
6. Kentucky head coach Mark Stoops announced that the Wildcats will play two quarterbacks against Western Kentucky in Nashville, Tenn., on Saturday. It consists of the sophomore pair of Max Smith and Jalen Whitlow. And yes, they have settled on a starter — Stoops just refused to reveal it to reporters.
7. Georgia will play in this week's marquee game when it heads on the road Saturday night to square off against Clemson. For Bulldog tight end Jay Rome, it will be an opportunity to beat his father's alma mater. (Stan Rome lettered in football in 1975, but he was an even better basketball player, as he still ranks 14th on the Tigers' all-time scoring list.)
And since I normally like to end these with a video when I can, why not embed a video of one player leaping over another one? Besides, when you have a video like that, I think you'd probably have to find a reason not to post it, right? My colleague at The Telegraph in Macon, Seth Emerson, talked to linebacker (and Harris County graduate) Jordan Jenkins about his leap over freshman running back Brendan Douglas during one of the Bulldogs' preseason scrimmages.
The video is provided below. And it didn't end up being all for show — Jenkins' display of athleticism led quarterback Christian LeMay to throw the ball right into the hands of linebacker Amarlo Herrera.

Ultimate Zelda Riddles Returns Episode 18: Wizzrobe
- Back To:
- Board List
- Topic List
- Topic Archived
(Credit goes to AtmaX)
First, THERE'S ONLY. ONE. RIDDLE. AT. A. TIME. Yeah, we know, you don't want to wait to use that great riddle you've got, but you have to earn the right to post it. Get the riddle right, and you get the floor, and are free to post your riddle, as long as it follows the rest of the rules. If the riddler who has the floor is going to be away for a while or something, and gives permission to post a filler riddle, then feel free, but remember that it's just that: filler. When they return, your riddle (assuming it hasn't been solved) is null.
Regarding your riddle, it needs to meet a few specifications. First, it can be anything: a person, enemy, object, whatever. As long as you can write a riddle that has enough detail we could feasibly get it, it's okay. Second, you have to state what game you're talking about. No, it is not fun for us to guess between the 15 or so games in the series to find that one little detail you were thinking of from MM, as hard as that is to believe. Finally, try to make it rhyme. It doesn't have to, but it's good form, and it shouldn't be that difficult to throw in a rhyme or two.
If you guess correctly and get the floor, then you've got a new section of rules to deal with. First, you've got two days to post a riddle after you get the floor. If you're not going to post one, then say so as soon as you can so we can open it up to anyone. More often than not, if you take too long, filler will pop up, but the floor's still yours for two days from the minute your answer is confirmed as correct. Second, you have to respond to guesses at least once every 24 hours. Seriously, it takes like five minutes at most to come on here and say "Nope, no one's right yet." You can do that at least once a day. Finally, if someone posts something that answers your riddle, you can't disprove it, and the board approves of it, then you have to take that as the answer, no questions asked. You can tell us what you were actually looking for, and then we can move on.
So that's all the rules, these are just a few suggestions for writing your riddle.
- Read over your riddle a few times before you post it. Does it require any huge leaps of logic to answer? What makes sense to you, may be absolute bogus to us, so try and keep things logical.
- There should only be one answer to your riddle. If it's well written, it should have no other answers other than the one you're thinking of, which also prevents us from having to invoke rule 7, a win-win situation for us all.
- Have a few hints ready. Sometimes your riddle is a lot harder than you thought it was. Maybe you intentionally made it hard. Either way, have some ready just in case.
tl;dr Section: (Credit goes to AtmaX)
1. The object can be anything from items, to people, to enemies, whatever
2. Say what game you are talking about. (Read the second post for rules about this)
3. If you got the correct answer, you have to post a new riddle in a maximum of 2 days otherwise someone can create his own riddle and post it.
4. If you can't think of a riddle say it as soon as you can so somebody else can take over.
5. Try to make it rhyme (but it doesn't have to)
6. You must respond to guesses at least once every 24 hours. If you fail to update, your riddle will be thrown out and the floor will be open to anyone.
7. If someone makes a guess, and they can justify it as correct, with the board's approval, you have to accept it as the answer, even if it's not what you were looking for.
I: You can only post three guesses per post. Has to be approved or denied before you can guess more. (Nominated by Silfalas, approved in Episode 7.)
The Ancient Cistern: Yo dawg, we heard you like temples, so we put a shadow temple in your water temple, that way you can explore while you explore.
Current riddle by Symphonic_Sage
A parallel of a parallel world, we are.
In darkness we both like to reign.
Although our forms are different,
Our motive remains the same.
The bonds we have are critical
And we strengthen them together.
The older of us reside in seclusion,
and the younger in confusing weather.
The Ancient Cistern: Yo dawg, we heard you like temples, so we put a shadow temple in your water temple, that way you can explore while you explore.
Haha. A classic. After studying I'll get to it Sage.
Currently playing: Silent Hill 1 and LoZ Spirit Tracks.
Twinrova? (OoT)
Thunder dragon? (skyward sword)
Demise? (Skyward Sword)
Those are all my guesses i suck with riddles and i have not played that many zelda games
Wall-Masters and Floor Masters.

Oh! I forgot to remention: The answer has two parts. As in, your guesses should be "The _ and The _". Nothing yet.
The Ancient Cistern: Yo dawg, we heard you like temples, so we put a shadow temple in your water temple, that way you can explore while you explore.
Remember guys, I called Episode 19 four episodes back!
Everytime I find the key to success, somebody changed the locks.
~Attention: Any good spriters, please send me a PM~
What are the current guesses, from the previous episode?
Not changing this sig until we get a new main series Tales game released on a Nintendo console in the US
The triforce of power and the triforce of courage?
Not changing this sig until we get a new main series Tales game released on a Nintendo console in the US
There were no guesses in the last episode iKhanic.
Just to rule out, Sage, I'm going to guess the "original" world and the "second" world as in Hyrule and, for example, the Dark world, the Twilight realm, the 7 years later Hyrule, etc. The formula we see in many games.
Currently playing: Silent Hill 1 and LoZ Spirit Tracks.

Kanye West
"The system broken, the schools closed/The prisons open" is about as political a polemic as we have any right to expect from comeback-kid Yeezy in 2010. There are baseless scores to settle, crude puns to peddle, paradigms to shift—King Crimson as hep touchstone, anyone?—and musings to offer on the nature of power, even if one gets the sense that power might be an albatross that West is ready to relinquish.
Telecult Powers feat. Lala Ryan
"Freakout" is where The Modern Rites of Pei gels, with Telecult's sunspot-synth undertow gobbling and garbling Ryan's spirit-throes moans 'n' murmurings.

We will have several "sub applications" running "inside" swaf.
The basic layout of a swaf site, would be that these sub applications are "tabbed" next to each other.
According to their permissions, users should be able to select what subapps they want to use, and their position in their tab bar.
Some special subapps might be Aggregatable, in which case they'll be aggregated in a single tab by a Aggregator subapp.
Only one instance of each subapp should be allowed in the user's tabbar. (except for Aggregators...)
? Should each subapp "remember" it's state, so that when the user selects another tab then comes back to the previous one, he still sees the same screen? I guess that should be a choice left to the developer. We could provide a framework to do this, but that would be restrictive as to "how to integrate with swaf". Actually, in any case, tab-capable browsers are there just for that. And if we would allow this, we would get into troubles if people use both browser tabs and swaf tabs and they'd get lost anyway.
The question's left open for Aggregator though. Should an Aggregator accept "active" subapps? (active being for example a subapp that would present a search form in a first screen, then display the results) If so, it wouldn't make much sense to have, say, two search forms, then get the results for one, and when searching in the second form, we would loose results from the first search. (I guess users would expect to keep results from the first search as well). There are multiple ways to handle this: * completely forbid active subapps in Aggregator. We would only allow non-active subapps, which could be for example "informative" subapps with no user interaction. That's probably the easiest. * allow active subapps in Aggregator, but user interaction results would appear in a separate "tab". This should imply the fact that an aggregated active subapp would be registered by the user in its tabbar. (Otherwise it would lead to jetspeed-like non-sense where you see results of a subapp within a different, shitty stuff like that. Or if we are courageous, we can allow this without the user having a separate for the subapp, but we really need to be careful) * the most complex way would be to actually store the subapp's activity/state in the session and restore or re-execute it whenever there's user interaction with another subapp of the same Aggregator. I don't really feel like going into that, and we can probably manage to convince people it's not needed.
Each subapp should also be able to register user preferences of its own, which the user could modify through its profile screen. (which could for example look like most modern desktop application preferences dialogs, with a list on the left with the different sections (which here would be "basics" then each subapp's name) and the right part of the screen with forms)
The subapp user preferences would represented by an object which would be stored along with the rest of the user's data. (Find a clean way to define the preferences, something better than an HashMap?)
Skins are boring and a useless thing to propose. What we could have, eventually, is selectable stylesheets. But we have to think about not tying to developers to swaf too much here, too. While talking about stylesheets, we should maybe think about a way to let developers use their own css without having to edit swaf's main templates. Maybe "stylesheet" could simply be a parameter of a subapp's registration.s

UW Libraries Search (beta) - FAQ
Fall 2014
We have been implementing a new library system at the Libraries, of which UW Libraries Search (beta) is one part. After careful review of staff and user feedback on the search tool this summer, and considering a number of significant issues that have yet to be resolved, we have decided to return to UW WorldCat as the default search tool on the Libraries homepage. UW Libraries Search (beta) is available in the second tab.
We remain committed to this major cooperative program of developing a shared library system with our 36 partners in the Orbis Cascade Alliance, and will continue to work with the Alliance and the vendor to improve UW Libraries Search (beta). As always, we are here to help and we welcome your questions and comments.
What is UW Libraries Search (beta)?
- UW Libraries Search (beta) is the search tool for discovering materials in the UW Libraries and Summit Libraries' collections. It mirrors UW WorldCat in many ways in that it includes books, articles and more through a simple search box, allowing you to filter your search results in a number of ways based on your needs.
What are some new features of the search system?
- "Permalinks" that provide stable URLs that you can save or share.
- Location filters that allow you to narrow your results to items in a particular building, such as Odegaard Undergraduate Library or the Music Library.
- View only those items that are currently available, rather than items that are already checked out.
Does UW Libraries Search (beta) work with citation management tools?
- Yes. You will be able to export results to various tools, although things may work a little differently than in UW WorldCat. More information will be forthcoming as this functionality develops. See more information on Citations in UW Libraries Search (beta).
Where can I find tips and online help?
- See the UW Libraries Search (beta) Guide for tips on searching and how to find specific materials.
Where can I submit my questions or comments?
- Send feedback and questions via our Ask Us services email form. We are committed to providing the same excellent service throughout the implementation, so please feel free to contact us with any questions you have along the way.

Maurizio Cattelan
You gotta give it to millionaire art trickster Maurizio Cattelan. With a single neo-Duchampian gesture, he's given us a brand new way to look at art while strolling up and down Frank Lloyd Wright's celebrated spiral ramp. His new retrospective at the Guggenheim Museum, "Maurizio Cattelan: All," dangles 130 works by ropes in the museum atrium, and puts not a single thing on the walls. With no labels (though a guide is provided) and no stutter-step pauses in front of each bay, the viewing experience becomes more seamless, unified and open.
The show is "a duet between art and architecture," noted museum director Richard Armstrong at the press preview, reminding his listeners of the museum's previous experiments in this vein, such as the 2005 installation by Daniel Buren. Exhibition curator Nancy Spector called Cattelan the "tragic poet of our time," and after running through a slide show of the artist's works, ventured that the exhibition was both a "culmination and a lamentation," and "a metaphor for the uncertainty that we're facing."
"Maurizio Cattelan: All," Nov. 4, 2011-Jan. 22, 2012, at the Guggenheim Museum, 1071 Fifth Avenue, New York, N.Y. 10128.
