Shutdown sets federal workers on edge
WASHINGTON The government shutdown has set federal workers on edge, leaving them to wonder how long it may be before they get paid again as lawmakers show no sign of ending the standstill.
Workers were paid retroactively for time away from work after the last shutdown in 1995, though it's not clear if they will be paid for furlough days this time around. The loss of a paycheck could be critical for lower-paid workers like janitors and maintenance staff, but even workers with savings were talking about trimming grocery budgets and putting off big purchases and spending on things like home renovations.
Some 800,000 federal workers have been told not to report to work until Congress reaches a budget deal. Visitors to the nation's federally funded parks and museums have been turned away, and government help ranging from farm subsidies to health care assistance have been snared in the stalemate.
The Washington area has about 377,000 civilian federal workers, said Stephen Fuller, director of George Mason University's Center for Regional Analysis. Fuller estimated about 60 percent of them - 225,000 - are furloughed.
Richard Marcus, who lives in Silver Spring, Md., and has worked at the National Archives and Records Administration for 29 years, was spending his first full day at home Wednesday catching up on bills and paperwork. He said the mood of his co-workers on Tuesday as they shut down ranged from "resignation to anger."
"I think that's probably the spectrum. We felt as though we're caught up in this whole business as pawns," he said.
Marcus' wife works, so they will be able to get by - but renovations to their home, including patching a leak in the bathroom, will be put on hold, he said.
At least some workers will have the option of filing for unemployment benefits, while others may look for part-time jobs or volunteer work. For now, Greg Bettwy, 46, was spending some extra time with his dog Newton in a Washington dog park and planning to catch up on TV shows he had recorded.
Bettwy works in human resources at the Smithsonian Institution and said workers are concerned about potential lost wages.
"There's a lot of economic worry with this one," Bettwy said.
With workers like Bettwy staying home, some commuters felt the difference with less crowded trains and buses and fewer cars on the road. On Washington's Metro commuter train, normally packed subway cars had open aisles and even empty seats in some areas Wednesday morning. Metrorail saw a 22 percent reduction in ridership through the morning rush, said Metro spokesman Dan Stessel. Metro will not change its weekday schedule but is running only six-car trains until further notice, Stessel said.
At a news conference Wednesday, federal workers joined Democratic lawmakers in calling for a spending plan to get the public servants back on the job.
"Enough is enough," Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va. "Sequestration is stupid. Shutting down the government is stupidity on steroids."

I used to write really random stuff in journals/notebooks. When I was six or seven I would write dolphin facts, guides on how to draw dolphins and other stuff like that. When I was eight and nine I just spammed on TamaChat all day and didn't write. Then I suddenly started writing again when I was ten or eleven, and I'd write incredibly weird stuff about Tamas, TamaTalk, school and people I didn't like, with a lot of swearing and abbreviations and text talk.
I also had this random paragraph about one of my friends that I wrote when I was 9. Every time I got a new "best friend", I'd just cross out the old one's name in the paragraph and replace it with the new friend's name. I didn't find it funny at the time but now I do.
Then, around my 12th birthday, I got fed up of the annoying weird stuff in the notebooks and stayed up until midnight one night ripping them up with various things I didn't recognise that came from a manicure set. A lot of the stuff in the notebooks had been written with nail polish then the book had been closed before it dried, meaning some of the pages were stuck together. I still ripped them up though.
Also, I find it hard to understand ads that are hard to understand. For example, the one above this post - "Soothes Dry Eye Sensation - artificial tears instant comfort easy to use 10ml dropper". A dropper is a thing in Minecraft I use to store torches. So this ad is for a thing that will drop 10ml of liquid torches on your eye.

My best friend plays that Magic The Gathering thing.. he goes to some kind of game shop and plays with a bunch of people.. I don't know.. I think it's kinda strange how excited he gets over it.. but ya know.. whatever! xDD I actually thought about playing it but I doubt I would understand it. lolololXD
*I love Avicii.. Yeah, I know.. kinda weird.. I would marry him.. There's a biiiit of an age difference though.. :/
*I'm hoping to get to meet him at a Music festival in 2 years when my best friend and I go.. I'm counting on the fact that music producers like the song he recently sent in and he can start producing music, making it easier to meet people like Avicii.. In my opinion, that would be really neat.

Effects of Bay 11-7082 and LLnL onC. crepidioides-induced iNOS expression and NO production in RAW264.7 cells. (A) iNOS reporter gene analysis. RAW264.7 cells were transfected with the indicated luciferase reporter plasmids. After transfection, the cells were incubated in a medium containing Bay 11-7082 (20 μM) or LLnL (20 μM) for 1 h and then treated with C. crepidioides (500 μg/ml) for 6 h. Thereafter, luciferase activities were measured. The activities are expressed relative to that of cells transfected with pGL3 iNOS without further treatment, which was defined as 1. LUC, luciferase. Data are mean ± SD of three independent experiments. (B) RAW264.7 cells were pretreated with Bay 11-7082 (20 μM) or LLnL (10 μM) for 1 h before stimulation with C. crepidioides (500 μg/ml) for another 6 h. The iNOS mRNA expression was determined by RT-PCR. (C) RAW264.7 cells were pretreated with the indicated concentrations of Bay 11-7082 or LLnL for 1 h before stimulation with the indicated concentrations of C. crepidioides for another 48 h. The nitrite content in the culture media was analyzed. Data are mean ± SD of triplicate cultures. C. c., C. crepidioides.

Instructions with the bezel explained how to do it. It really helps to have the tool to remove the brass rings that fasten the top to the burners. One of the rings broke so I had to buy a replacement. Be careful removing the burner indicator lights and lenses. One of mine broke and although mine were clear lenses, the only replacements are red. This is the second time the bezel has cracked and the top of the oven door is now also cracked. For what was a very expensive range, the plastic parts are really poor quality, as was the first replacement bezel about 5 years ago.

State Representative Steve Riggs, on Friday, Aug 1, praised the Kentucky Division of Fleet Management for being ranked as one of the 100 best out of an estimated 38,000 government-managed fleets in North America. Only two other state-level agencies made the list.
"This recognition is another example of how efficient state government is becoming," said Riggs, a state legislator from the Louisville suburbs who serves on the House Transportation Committee and chairs the chamber's Local Government Committee. "We're always looking for ways to maximize taxpayer dollars, and the Kentucky Division of Fleet Management's high ranking shows we are heading in the right direction."
The auto fleets are gauged by how well they integrate technology; how fast they make repairs; how much training their staffs receive; and how well they manage costs compared to fleets of similar size. Governing, a nonpartisan magazine that focuses on state and local governments, publicizes the rankings, which can also be found online at the100bestfleets.com.
Riggs noted that the Division of Fleet Management, which manages 4,800 vehicles in the state motor pool, is a big user of ethanol-based E85 gasoline, and it relies on GPS to monitor such things as a driver's speed. The agency had been based in the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet, but 2009 legislation that Riggs supported and that the General Assembly adopted moved it to the Finance and Administration Cabinet.
"This agency has mastered a lot of the best practices that I think Kentucky's other auto fleets should follow," Riggs said. "It's an issue that I think deserves more attention, given the high gas prices we have seen in recent months."
For more information, contact Riggs at 502-640-1478.

Review: 'Chainsaw' loving homage to '74 original
More News from Frank Scheck
LOS ANGELES — Watching "Texas Chainsaw 3-D," the latest screen incarnation of the iconic chainsaw-wielding maniac Leatherface, the mind fairly reels. This purported direct sequel to Tobe Hooper's 1974 horror classic cheerfully ignores that director's own 1986 follow-up, the 1997 and 2003 remakes, the 2006 prequel and even its basic timeline. It scores points for sheer brazenness.
But aside from its being an obviously loving homage to the original — even including 3-D-enhanced clips from it in the opening credits — there isn't much to recommend this installment whose main point of originality is omitting the word "Massacre" from the title.
The opening sequence takes place directly after the final scene of Hooper's film, depicting a Waco-like encounter in which the house containing Leatherface and his cannibalistic family burns to the ground with all its occupants presumably dead. Except for a baby, who is promptly adopted and, as we soon see, grows up in Oklahoma to be the beautiful Heather (Alexandra Daddario).
Cut to roughly twenty years later, when Heather learns of her origins after being left a Texas mansion by her late grandmother. She and her friends promptly head off in a van to check out her inheritance which, unbeknownst to them, is still the home of the hulking Leatherface (Dan Yeager).
The film's first half follows conventional horror movie tropes as the heroine and her hottie companions — boyfriend Ryan (rapper Tremaine 'Trey Songz' Neverson), BFF Nikki (Tania Raymonde), her new crush Kenny (Keram Malicki-Sanchez) and a hunky hitchhiker (Scott Eastwood) — are pursued by the chainsaw-wielding inhabitant with predictably lethal results. But not before all of them bare as much skin as possible.
Things take a somewhat more complex turn later on when Heather finds herself in an unlikely alliance with her deranged relative against the town's corrupt mayor (Paul Rae) and his minions. Leatherface is even given a rather sympathetic treatment, depicted as being something of a misunderstood, overgrown child whose propensity for tearing off his victims' faces is but an extreme example of adolescent rebellion.
That the film obviously takes place in the present day — a key sequence involves a camera phone — is something of a puzzler, since that would make Heather nearly forty, something that the tightly toned, midriff-baring Daddario is clearly not. But hey, what's a couple of decades more or less?
Director John Luessenhop ("Takers") takes advantage of the 3-D by shoving blood spurts and the occasional chainsaw directly into viewers' faces, but otherwise it has little impact other than to goose the box-office with those hefty surcharges. Unlike the restrained 1974 film which cleverly relied mainly on suggestion, this version piles on the graphic, often CGI-enhanced gore.
Devoted fans of the original will be gratified by the cameos from several of that film's cast members, including original Leatherface Gunnar Hansen, although they are mostly of the blink and you'll miss them variety.
"Texas Chainsaw 3-D," a Lionsgate release, is rated R for strong grisly violence and language throughout. 92 minutes.

Patagonia Men's Snowshot Jacket
Patagonia states that their Men's Snowshot Jacket is good for "ripping the park, charging powder in the trees or dropping into fresh steeps." They always use such cool lingo.... but I'm not convinced that sometimes they don't just make up expressions.

The H2No® Performance Standard 2-layer ripstop shell is waterproof/breathable so you can venture out into the backcountry and do some freeriding. It is lined with 100% polyester mesh so it slides on easily over layers, so you can tailor your temperature for your activities (pit-zips further increase temperature control). It is also loaded plenty of comfort/safety features (listed below). So check out the Snowshot jacket and go catch the fling and shred your W-2s.

I like the longer skirt, and because this jacket is a bit oversize I can wear it over a sport coat or blazer when I need to head for the courthouse or a client's funeral. Would be nicer if the main zipper were a two-way, so the front of the jacket didn't bunch up under my seat-belt when I'm driving. We'll see if this jacket lasts as long and wears as well as the thirteen-year-old Marmot for which it will serve as understudy.
Love the features - media pocket great for tunes in the cold (especially when spending quality time with my soul mate). Ran big (I'm not tall nor am I slight of frame) even with layers. Returned my old one to Patagonia due to fabric wear - didn't like my backpack. New one holding up fine. Recommend to anyone looking for some must-haves; waterproof, pit zips, powder skirt and plenty of stash pockets.

Well, apparently Minority Leader Sen. Mitch McConnell seems to think you folks kinda signed up for this.....
"I won't tell you everything is great in Iraq; it is not. But we want to keep a steady flow of funds so that we don't disrupt the military," said McConnell. "Unfortunately, most of our friends on the other isle are having a hard time admitting things are getting better; some days I almost think the critics of this war don't want us to win. Nobody is happy about losing lives but remember these are not draftees, these are full-time professional soldiers."
BTW, last time I checked, members of the National Guard and Reserves, who have been deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan, are not "full time" professional soldiers. But I guess Sen. McConnell, who has never served in the military in any capacity, may not be aware of this.
most of us have been questioning it since the very day the government put into it play.

PETALING JAYA: The South Klang Valley Expressway (SKVE) leading to Saujana Putra will officially be opened to motorists from tomorrow and will be toll-free for a month.
Works Minister Datuk Shaziman Abu Mansor said the opening of tomorrow's section would help reduce traffic congestion along the Damansara–Puchong Highway (LDP) heading towards Putrajaya.
"It is expected to cut peak hour travel time from the B15/LDP interchange to Bandar Saujana Putra or the Putra Heights area from 40 minutes to 10 minutes," Shaziman said in his speech read by ministry secretary-general Datuk Thomas George who opened the second section, known as Section 1B yesterday.
The 51.7km dual-carriageway is divided into four sections and is expected to be completed by 2012.
The first 7.95km stretch that starts at the Uniten interchange in Bangi is toll free, and had been open for several years.
The Section 1B stretch which opens tomorrow is 12.04km long, and ends near the SKVE Saujana Putra interchange. It is a stone's throw away from the Elite Highway that leads to Nilai, KLIA, USJ, Putrajaya and Shah Alam to name a few.
The third stretch heads towards Teluk Panglima Garang. It is 12.96km long and would be completed next year.
SKVE's last stretch is 18.81km long and connects to Pulau Carey before ending near the Pulau Indah interchange, serving as a link between Putrajaya and Westport.
SKVE Holdings Sdn Bhd director Mohamad Nuhairi Datuk Paduka Rahmat said motorists would save travel time and cost on the expressway, with its nine strategic interchanges. It connects to areas such as Putrajaya, KLIA, the Sepang F1 Circuit, North South Expressway (NSE), Westport, the Kajang Silk Highway and the proposed West Coast Expressway, which links Banting and Taiping.
Malaysian Highway Authority director-general Datuk Ismail Md Salleh said the Government had yet to decide on the toll rate for the 12.04km stretch. Sources said the cost would be similar to the NSE, and estimated it to be around RM1.80 or less than RM2.
Shaziman also reminded all highway concessionaires that services rendered must be of quality and on par with toll charges, adding that LLM was in its final stages of studying the Multi-Lane Free Flow non-stop toll payment system.

Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy is ready to meet with Real Madrid officials over Gareth Bale's £87 million world record move.
The Daily Mail says Real president Florentino Perez sent his right-hand man Enrique Sanchez Gonzalez to Miami to hear Levy's final demands for Bale's record-busting move.
Spurs and Real have also agreed to a schedule that will involve a meeting between Levy and Perez, one of the most powerful figures in world football.
Real's financial situation is so complicated that Levy is demanding additional bank guarantees to be inserted into the contracts between the two clubs.
Tottenham are still locked in a major dispute with the Spanish club over the structure of the payments.

Are you looking for more technical information on creating RIAs (Rich Internet Applications) and RDAs (Rich Desktop Applications)? MSDN BeLux is organizing a road show around these technologies. This is your chance to learn about Silverlight, new ASP.NET Ajax features and learn about the .NET Client Profile with WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation).
Hereunder you can find the description of the event, please note that sessions are in different languages: 1 session in English, 2 in Dutch and 2 in French. All sessions take place in October so be quick to register in time.
Français: http://www.microsoft.com/belux/msdn/fr/events/msdnroadshow/default.aspx Nederlands: http://www.microsoft.com/belux/msdn/nl/events/msdnroadshow/default.aspx
MSDN Road Show: Build Rich Client Experiences with Silverlight 2 and WPF Delivering rich client experiences to users is becoming an important aspect of new applications. Join us for the MSDN Road Show to keep in touch with the latest innovations. Learn how you can develop rich applications that deploy to the web and go beyond what you can typically do inside of a browser based application. We will cover 3 main topics:
See you there!
A few people at the MIX essentials event we organized in April requested me to post the source code for the Silverlight demo we gave in the opening keynote. So, here is the code (download at the bottom) along with some explanations of what we implemented. What's also available: a running example hosted at Silverlight Streaming.
Check out the recording of the session to view the demo being demonstrated live.
The "Refresh" button's style is customized by using Application Resources. Application resources allow you to define styles and templates to be applied to controls. Check out this tutorial on styles and templates in Silverlight.
Style and templating defined in App.xaml file:
<!-- Button -->
<Style x:Key="hardComic" TargetType="Button">
<Setter Property="IsEnabled" Value="true" />
<Setter Property="IsTabStop" Value="true" />
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="#FFFFFFFF" />
<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="16" />
<Setter Property="Cursor" Value="Hand" />
<Setter Property="TextAlignment" Value="Center" />
<Setter Property="TextWrapping" Value="NoWrap" />
<!-- code omitted -->
The custom style is applied to the button by using the key (Page.xaml file):
<Button x:Name="buttonRefresh" Style="{StaticResource hardComic}" ... />
By applying a custom style and control template, the layout of the button changes from
The bubbles in the test tube were created in Expression Blend 2.5. The animation is created by moving the bubbles from the bottom of the test tube to the limit of the pink liquid. This is done in a Storyboard containing several keyframes for the different bubbles. A different path is used for each bubble so that the effect is like real bubbles are coming up. At the end of the storyboard, Opacity of each bubble is set to 0% so that these are no longer visible. We also set the Repeat behavior of the storyboard to Forever so that the animation keeps on playing once its started.

Thanks to Stijn for the animation!
Photos are loaded by accessing the Flickr search REST service. This is done by creating a WebClient object, accessing the service asynchronously and then parsing the returned XML to load the photos on the surface:
private void LoadPictures()
// Initialize Flickr URI
string tags = "mixessentialsbe";
string key = "hidden";
string flickrApi = string.Format("http://api.flickr.com/services/rest/?method=flickr.photos.search&api_key={0}&tags={1}", key, tags);
// Asynchronous call to REST Service
WebClient rest = new WebClient();
rest.DownloadStringCompleted += new DownloadStringCompletedEventHandler(rest_DownloadStringCompleted);
rest.DownloadStringAsync(new Uri(flickrApi));
void rest_DownloadStringCompleted(object sender, DownloadStringCompletedEventArgs e)
if (!_photosLoaded && (0 != Width) && (0 != Height))
//... some code omitted
if (doc.Element("rsp").Attribute("stat").Value == "ok")
// Current Page Logic
int totalPages = Convert.ToInt32(doc.Descendants("photos").Single().Attribute("total").Value);
if (_pageIndex >= totalPages)
_pageIndex = 0;
// Get Photo collection using Linq to XML
var photos = (from results in doc.Descendants("photo")
select new
id = results.Attribute("id").Value.ToString(),
farm = results.Attribute("farm").Value.ToString(),
server = results.Attribute("server").Value.ToString(),
secret = results.Attribute("secret").Value.ToString()
}).Skip(_pageIndex * 10).Take(10);
// Add a photo control for each Photo returned
foreach (var photo in photos)
url = string.Format("http://farm{0}.static.flickr.com/{1}/{2}_{3}_m.jpg",
photo.farm, photo.server, photo.id, photo.secret);
new Photo(this, this.SurfaceLayoutRoot, new Uri(url));
_photosLoaded = true;
I recommend reading Gill's tutorial on Silverlight 2 data and services for detailed information on accessing services using Silverlight.
To show the photos we reused some sample code from the Community samples at silverlight.net: Silverilght Surface sample.
This example includes a custom Photo class that we have reused and slity adapted to fit the new parent object (our Page.xaml). It adds a really cool experience to displaying the photos.
You do need to request your own API key at Flickr and add it to the code before being able to run the code locally. Sign-up for a key at the Flickr site and then change the key in Page.xaml.cs file:
private void LoadPictures()
// Initialize Flickr URI
string tags = "mixessentialsbe";
//todo: create your own API key at Flickr and copy here:
string key = "flickr api key here";
string flickrApi = string.Format("http://api.flickr.com/services/rest/?
method=flickr.photos.search&api_key={0}&tags={1}", key, tags);
//rest of code omitted...
Add the key, rebuild and the app should run locally.
Code can be downloaded from my Skydrive.
Being a developer using Expression Blend 2 (or 2.5 Preview) for implementing basic design of Silverlight or WPF applications, I've collected a list of my favorite shortcuts and tips to using the interface. At first it's a whole new interface you need to get used. These are my personal most used shortcuts.
Ctrl + mouse wheel - Zooming in and out and the interface zoom level The quickest way to zoom in and out in the design view is by pressing the CTRL key and using the mouse wheel to zoom in and out. You can also use the zoom pane at the bottom left of the central pane.
F6 - Switch between Design and Animation workspace In other words, switch between the normal workspace in which the interaction and timeline editing is shown on the left, and the timeline view at the bottom. All you need to do is press F6 to switch between the views.
F4 - View artboard only (remove left and right panels) If you need more space to work on the artboard area (central area), you can use F4 to make the work panels disappear. Notice that the Properties window's elements are still available as fly-out menus in the right:
Ctrl + 0 – Fit to screen Zooms the control to fit to screen (work area, depending on what space is available).
Ctrl + 1 - Actual size Zooms the control to its actual size.
Set design-time width and height In case you want your Silverlight control to automatically adjust to the screen size you need to set Width and Height to Auto. However, for working in Blend it is easier if you can set a "working" width and height. You can do this by dragging the design-time height icons: Design-time width and height only have effect in Blend. Note the XAML that is used for this:
<UserControl ... xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008" mc:Ignorable="d" d:DesignWidth="292.261" d:DesignHeight="362.262">...
Do you have more shortcuts or tips for the Blend interface? Leave me a comment and maybe I can do a follow-up post with all the tips from the community.

After the famous "10 minutes with your RD" by Regional Director Gregory Renard, I decided to get started with my own short screencast series on Chopsticks as well. I'm naming these "10 minutes with your DE".
My first screencast is now online, I ended up with more than 10 minutes, 13:40 to be exact… bear with me for my first cast, I'll try keeping to the timing better as I evolve with my screen recording abilities :)
10 minutes with your DE - # 1: Data Access Technologies with .NET Framework 3.5 SP1
With the Service Pack 1 release for Visual Studio 2008 and the .NET Framework 3.5, new data access technologies are available to us. In this screencast I talk about ADO.NET, ADO.NET Entity Framework, ADO.NET Data Services and more.
Update: You can download the PowerPoint presentation here:
With the release of IE8 Beta 2 you are likely to start getting more questions and more (power) end users trying this release out. In this post I'll point out some of the new features of IE8 and then give you the most important pointers for compatibility and development.
IE8 Beta 2 Download link. IE Blog with the upgrade information on beta 2.
First things first, before checking out the new features of the browser it's important that your visitors have a good experience browsing your site. Check out my previous post on IE8 compatibility for starters, and in addition to that there is extra information hereunder.
With Beta 2 there is an update to the compatibility settings, here is an overview of the available choices. You can set your compatibility using the header "X-UA-Compatible", either in the web server as a HTTP header or on the page as a meta tag.
Also important to note is that your META tag in the page will override the compatibility HTTP header if this one is also used.
Using DOCTYPE for compatibility Another way of setting the desired layout of your site is using the DOCTYPE. However, setting the above mentioned X-UA-Compatible META tag will override any DOCTYPE setting.
To call up the Developer Tools window, press F12 or click the icon.
For example, I can trace CSS styles:
Using the Layout tool I can visually see the distance between the selected object and the parent, the padding, border and margins.
IE8 introduces a lot of new features in different domains, be it in standards support, CSS 2.1 (and some CSS3), privacy, security, performance improvements in JScript, W3C HTML5 local store, etc. I'm pointing out a few of them:
Web Slices
Web Slices allow a user to subscribe to a specific section of a page. For example there is one I like to use which shows me the updated statuses of my Facebook friends.
Developing Web Slices: web slices are implemented using some specific CSS classes that do nothing in other browsers. You can now even have controls inside the WebSlice like Silverlight or Flash. To see some samples, check out a lab on MSDN code gallery: http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/ieteched08labs/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=1187
Just that you know, these were called Activities in IE8 beta 1 and have now been renamed to Accelerators. Accelerators are great for enabling users to execute an a certain action right from out on the page. For example, translating a sentence, mapping an address, blogging a quote, all from a contextual menu that is displayed when you select some text or a link. They're implemented using the OpenService Format.
Non-administrator ActiveX installation This might be of most interest at enterprise level, IE8 lets you install ActiveX controls without Administator privileges, on a per-user basis. IE8 also lets the user allow specific ActiveX controls to be enabled only on individual sites, preventing that a control would run on any other than the chosen site.
Mutable DOM prototypes This is a great feature that allows you to rewrite any DOM method so that for example a certain built-in method returns the same result as in another browser. This is something I was looking for since some time!
So now, go out and install IE8 Beta 2 (I know you've been waiting for it), test your site, add compat if needed and then start using all the new goodies.

In this post you'll find our top tips for going through Windows Store developer registration, based on the learning's we've had these past few months as we work with Belgian developers to get ready for Windows 8 launch.
Store Portal Dashboard: https://appdev.microsoft.com/StorePortals/ Logging in and accessing the Store Portal, learn about Strong Authorization and account security: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/jj553414.aspx
Must-read resources:
The registration process is a seven-step flow in which the following elements are important:
Before your apps can go through certification your account needs to be validated. Depending on the account type, there are several steps to be completed.
Both Company and Individual verification is done through a withdrawal on your credit card, which is then reverted directly. The transaction number or amount is used to verify your account. Go to the Dashboard > Subscription page to go through verification.
Here's a good overview of where to find the account status.
Under the "Profile" link, check the status of your account:
1 – Developer identity validation – Must be set to "Authorized" before any apps can be certified. (Only Company). Vetting is done by an external party "Symantec/GeoTrust" that will send an e-mail to the Approver e-mail you entered in the process of registration. Make sure Spam folder is checked and followed up. You can find more information on the types of proof needed for Belgian accounts through Symantec knowledge base: https://knowledge.verisign.com/support/ssl-certificates-support/index?page=content&actp=CROSSLINK&id=SO17796
2 – Payout account: the status of your bank account information being complete. Must be complete if you are certifying paid apps, or in-app purchase. (Company and Indidual)
3 – Tax profile must be set to "Valid" if you are certifying paid apps, or in-app purchase. (Company and Indidual) Important to note is that the Tax Profile section should be filled in by a company representative, for example the CEO or Financial director.
If you run into an issue with your developer registration, there are several support options available including community forums and the official support team ready to help you (through chat or e-mail).
My colleague David blogged about support for Windows Phone 7 in PhoneGap released last month. Please find more information and resource below or head off to David's blog.
Back in September, Microsoft joined Nitobi to announce a Beta of PhoneGap support for Windows Phone Mango, and at the same time committed to continue working with the PhoneGap Open Source project community to help bring full support.

The Visual Studio & .NET Framework evangelism team has just released the .NET Framework 3.5 Enhancements Training Kit. This is a preview containing 6 extensive labs on the following subjects:
Although the .NET 3.5 Extensions have not yet been released this will give you a jump start on the enhancements. New content will still be added (screencasts, demos, presentations) by the time .NET 3.5 Extensions RTM.
Check out Jonathan's blog for more details.
Last week on April 24th we had our first MIX essentials event in Belgium. It was a full day with a dynamic opening keynote; developer and designer break-out sessions and of course a fantastic closing keynote and Q&A session with Steve Ballmer.
Opening keynote
The opening keynote was a mix of presentations, demos and some cool videos (if I say so myself :-)). Luc van de Velde was the conductor doing the intro of the developer/designer collaboration story and orchestrating all demos and other presenters. The first demo was done by 4 guys from 4 of Belgium's top web agencies, each of them with a defined role in the collaboration story: Jan from Nascom, Stijn from These Days, Thomas from LBi and Chris from Emakina. Check it out here.
Next we had Martin Tirion, UX Evangelist coming over from the Netherlands to present us the newest around IE8, Silverlight 2 and Expression Suite 2. I did a few demos during his part as well.
To close off the keynote, Catherine Heller, Technical Evangelist came over from Redmond for an overview of the Windows Live platform. She also invited someone from Truvo on stage to give a demo on their Live Agent to search for phone numbers of people and businesses. If you want to add the bot to your messenger account just add a friend and choose firstname.lastname@example.com for French or email@example.com for Dutch.
All sessions are now (yes now!) available on our MSDN Chopsticks platform, keynote videos are available without login, for the breakout sessions simply login using a Live ID account as this is premium content. The PowerPoint presentations are also available for download with each video.
Designer sessions were delivered by David Pugh-Jones, Ian Griffiths and Paul Dawson. Developer sessions were delivered by Tim Heuer, Catherine Heller and Gill Cleeren.
Pictures of the event
Lots of pictures have been posted on Flickr (thanks Miel and Gill).
What's next?
Hopefully next year we will be hosting a second edition of MIX essentials and we'll see you there. In the meantime, subscribe to our newsletter Express Yourself, keep track of the news on our Twitter account http://twitter.com/mixessentialsbe/ and Light up the web!
Here are some resources mentioned during the event to get you started on Silverlight and Microsoft Expression.

Re: please help - paint newbie
Like Faster suggested your boat has some "dock rash" where it is mostly
cosmetic damage - that should be fixed eventually. The deeper holes would be
good to fill with a thickened epoxy, to keep water out - which is pretty easy to do.
The bottom does not look so bad to me. Scrape off any loose or peeling paint.
Give it all a light sanding (if you dare).
Wipe it down with Acetone or de-natured Alcohol.
Repaint with antifouling paint.
Regarding which bottom paint.
If you run a clean rag over the bottom paint and some of the color comes off
on your rag then your boat was last coated with an ablative, or soft paint. If a
soft paint was last used then that is what you should use again. You can't put hard
bottom paints over soft ones in most cases.
If the bottom paint is hard then you have a choice of using either a hard or soft bottom
Since I don't know whether your boat will be in fresh or salt water, or where you will be
sailing I can't recommend a paint for you. You should use the type of paint used by most
other boaters in your area as they already have a good idea of what works where you are.
Cute puppy by the way.

Endorsement interviews: Bert Hill
Bert Hill is running to represent western San Francisco on BART's Board of Director, taking on incumbent James Fang, the city's only Republican elected official. But even though Hill has the support of Democratic Party and a wide variety of progressive organizations, voters won't see their party affiliation in this nonpartisan race. Instead, the race could be a referendum on an agency that Hill says isn't responsive enough to the needs and experiences of riders.
"It's important to figure out what are human needs on the trains," Hill told us, citing the need to better accommodate passengers with bicycles and lots of luggage, the lack on working bathrooms and elevators in most stations, extending service beyond midnight on weekends, and the need for better station labels so passenger easily know when to get off.
Hill said BART is in need of major reforms in its financial planning (calling for the agency to build reserves during good times to avoid service cuts during recessions), its police force (saying the board should consider disbanding the BART Police and contracting out to local law enforcement agencies), and its transparency and accountability (telling a funny story about his own experience just trying to get permission to take a campaign photo by a BART train).
Listen to Hill full endorsement interview below. Fang has not responded to Guardian requests for an endorsement interview.

Really good hike that is only a couple of miles. You get the workout without having to take all day hiking for a view. This peak is next to Cathedral Ledge (where people can drive to the top). The views are the same, but without all the people.
Hiked the trail from the White Mountain Hotel and resort. Took 3 hrs. Very rocky, difficult climbs at times due to hard to read trail markings. Got caught in the rain half way up so once up top there was no view except of trees and fog.
Great view of the Mount Washington Valley, & relatively easy to get to, is you don't climb the face of the cliff. Just follow West Side Road to "Cathedral Ledge" to go to the top, or park in the White Mountain Hotel to look up at the rock climbers.
Short hike , the view is excellent, from the top.
You can do a nice loop with the cathedral ledge ( 3.6 miles).
It also can be excellent slab or ice climbing place .
If you like slab climbing, you really need to try White Horse. There are both easy and tough routes. Be prepared for a great full day of multipitch! Run outs that can play with your head, too! Do your research. You can go off route, and you should use more than one (70 meter) rope. My friends (the team after...
We had a little trouble hiking up there because the trails were covered in leaves. It wouldn't have been a problem but some areas were steep and rocky. We had to be extra cautious where we stepped because the rocks becomes slippery due to the leaves. Even though this took some extra time and effort, we were well rewarded with...
I'd like to try this trail again in the summer. In November, the trail was covered with leaves that hid the bare roots and granite boulders. We turned back half way up for fear of getting a sprained ankle.
The view is tremendous for such little effort. Choose a clear day , drive or hike up and you won't be disappointed.
We followed the yellow trail markers from the White Mountain Hotel. The hike to the summit and viewing area took us about 2 hours. We did the complete loop up and over which was tougher going down -
We hiked from the Echo Lake State Park parking lot up the Bryce Path to Cathedral Ledged, then across to WhieHorse Ledge, then down the way we came. Perfect afternoon hike of about 3 1/2 miles with some interesting steep areas and fantastic views.

Fantasia Barrino has lost her cheating baby daddy back to the woman she stole him from in the first place — his wife!
After splitting with Antwaun Cook earlier this year, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned he left the American Idol winner to work on his marriage with estranged wife, Paula Cook.
"Antwaun's father passed away the week of Father's Day and they were really close, so since then he's been wanting to work on his marriage," a source close to the situation told Radar.
"Technically he's still married to Paula and they're back together now. The only tie he still has to Fantasia is his son, Dallas."

As Radar previously reported, Fantasia thought that having a baby with Antwaun would keep them together.
In November 2011, Fantasia testified during a separation hearing between Antwaun and Paula that she had previously been pregnant by him and had an abortion.
"She kept this one to keep him," the source told Radar.
"Antwaun and Paula spent Thanksgiving together at his mother's house in Wilmington," the insider revealed, solidifying that they're back together.
"And in November they went on a trip together with a bunch of friends to the Bahamas for a birthday. Antwaun doesn't really talk to Fantasia much anymore except about their son."

Staying in Shape on One Leg?
View Single Post
Join Date: Aug 2009

Doing core work can really strengthen the upper leg and hip region as well. One of the simplest I've experienced is Ab Ripper X from the P90X series. 16 min long. Your hips will love you. Yoga is another one. I find videos are convenient for me. A lot of people like going to the gym. I've worked in office environments and I've been self employed. Doing something as simple as push-ups every 45 to 60 min through out the day will do wonders. Or doing plank work for a minute or 2 every hour. Over a period of 4 months of just doing push ups and planks my shoulders, back, pecs and abs never looked so good. And that was just taking a couple of minutes every hour.
People don't realize how easily exercise can be integrated into a day. I also like the Insanity series. I know you only have one healthy leg, and there are a couple of vids in the series that don't require plyometrics and work predominately on core and flexibility.
Best of luck.

Oracle Information InDepth

Officials Improve Agency Operations with Solutions Built Using Oracle Endeca
NuWave Solutions, a systems integrator and Oracle partner, is carving out a unique niche in the public sector. "We are focusing on helping agencies answer questions they didn't even know to ask," says Jim McHugh, NuWave's vice president, Capabilities and Services.
The resulting solutions can help government agencies address a wide range of critical challenges common to public sector organizations today, including finding ways to reduce fraud, waste, and abuse.
The foundation for these solutions is Oracle Endeca Information Discovery, an enterprise data discovery platform designed for the rapid, intuitive explorations of information from a combination of structured and unstructured sources.
"Oracle Endeca Information Discovery isn't like typical search engines where you look for things you know to search for," says Rob Castle, NuWave's chief technology officer. "Oracle Endeca Information Discovery lets the data point out something that looks unusual and allows the user to explore in more detail. That capability makes our customers' eyes light up."
For example, NuWave is leading the development of a solution for a branch of the military. The solution combines Oracle Endeca Information Discovery with Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition. This capability provides senior-level leaders near real-time access to visually driven dashboard displays of complex, difficult-to-access readiness and resourcing data.
"When senior leaders see something unexpectedly good or bad, they use this enterprise capability to analyze why it happened, whether it might happen again, and, if it's something positive, how to make it happen again," McHugh says. Traditional business intelligence reporting tools cannot help users answer these underlying and forward-looking questions. "This is the transforming power of data analytics," he adds.
"Every government organization we work with today is inundated with data," McHugh says. "So much so that they can't look at their data closely enough to find new, more effective ways of running their agencies—unless they have the right solution."

Germany Calls for Memorial at Olympics
A minute of silence to commemorate Munich victims
Germany is taking a lot of flack for its regional court's decision to ban circumcision. But it's important not to let the isolated action of a single court–one which will likely be reversed by a higher court or by mortified politicians–overshadow the country's significant philo-semitic efforts, like its steadfast support for Israel. Another such example was reported last night, when the Times of Israel published excerpts of a letter by Germany's foreign minister to the International Olympic Committee in support of a minute of silence to commemorate the slain Israeli athletes of the 1972 Munich Olympic massacre.
"This tragic terrorist attack in my country was directed not only at the Israeli Olympic team," wrote Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle, "it was also an attack on the Olympic Games and the Olympic idea of promoting peace and friendship among the nations." He dubbed the proposal of a minute of silence–supported by Israel, a unanimous US Senate, the Canadian House of Commons and the entire Australian parliament–"a humanitarian gesture and a fitting way to send the message that violence and terror are incompatible with the Olympic idea."
Of course, so far the IOC continues to resist this call to common sense. Their refusal to commemorate the murdered Israelis athletes is not only in conflict with the raison d'etre of the Games but also its own previous actions: The IOC has recently allowed or run memorials for athletes who died in training and for the victims of 9/11. Yet Jewish competitors brutally slain at the Games themselves are deemed unworthy of such token acknowledgement.
Apparently, this summer's Olympic slogan of "Inspire a Generation" does not mean doing so by moral example. For that, we can look instead to countries like Germany.

GUNTUR: Nallapati Sivarama Chnadrasekhara Rao, assumed office as the in-charge Chairman of Guntur District Cooperative Central Bank on Saturday.
At the general body meeting of the GDCC here on Saturday, outgoing Chairman Kurri Punna Rao tendered his resignation and the transfer of power was smooth with Vice-Chairman Nallapati Sivarama Chandrasekhara Rao assuming office as the in-charge Chairman. This has paved way for Mr. Chandrasekhara Rao to get elected as the Chairman on a date to be announced by Registrar of Cooperative Societies.
In view of the arrangement arrived at more than two years ago on sharing of power between the two persons hailing from Vinukonda and Narsaraopet respectively, Mr. Rao was elected Vice-Chairman 20 days ago at the bank general body meeting. He assumed office in the presence of Minister for Civil Supplies Kasu Venkata Krishna Reddy.

Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Cattrall, Kristin Davis and Cynthia Nixon return in Sex and the City 2, the 2010 sequel to 2008's blockbuster film of the hit HBO series.
The four great friends, Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda have grown up since their days on the small screen and all are married. However, just because their single days are far behind them, doesn't mean the women's lives are devoid of problems.
All four of them decide a break away from domestic life is what is needed and a luxurious trip to Abu Dhabi seems to provide the answer. With the reappearance of Carrie's old flame Aidan, however, there's more adventure in store than they were bargaining for.
What happens when you say "I do"? The girls are about to find out.

PORTLAND — The stakes weren't monumental, but the show was worthy of a big stage.
Abby Wambach delivered two goals in the second half Thursday, and the United States delighted a crowd of 18,570 with plenty of offensive creativity in a 3-0 victory over Canada in an international women's soccer exhibition match at Jeld-Wen Field.
Playing for only the second time since the heartbreaking loss on July 17 to Japan in the World Cup final, the USA dominated on Thursday by using its quickness and short passing to build the attack from many angles.
But it wasn't until the final half-hour that the Americans delivered goals.
Not surprisingly, it was Wambach who delivered. Dating to the World Cup, the 31-year-old from Rochester, N.Y., has scored in her last six appearances for the national team. That includes the only goal in a 1-1 draw with Canada on Saturday in Kansas City.
"I was proud of everybody. If you create enough opportunities, a few are going to fall," Wambach said.
First came a left-footed dart from the top of the 18-yard box in the 63rd minute that screamed into the left side of the net.
Seven minutes later, Wambach struck again with a diving header at the left post to finish off a cross from Kelley O'Hara.
The exclamation point came in the final seconds of the match, when Alex Morgan was in the right place to re-direct a Lauren Cheney header into the goal.
After the final whistle, players from both teams saluted the fans, and Wambach and Megan Rapinoe gave short interview's to the crowd thanking fans for their support.
Rapinoe didn't get a goal, but the former University of Portland star from Redding, Calif., produced her share of near misses — including a couple of shots off the post.
"That's football," Rapinoe said.
Prior to the goals, the loudest cheer from the crowd came in early in the second half, when goalkeeper Hope Solo was replaced by Jill Loyden. In addition to being perhaps the team's most popular player, the Richland, Wash., native is a participant this season in the "Dancing with the Stars" television show.
Solo did make two saves in her 100th match for the United States. But the Canadian keepers were much busier.
The Americans outshot Canada 21-6, including 10-2 in shots on goal. The USA earned seven corner kicks to none for Canada.
"It always feels good to keep a clean sheet, especially when we're pushing forward," defender Stephanie Cox, another former Portland Pilot, said.
For the participants, the highlight of the night was the atmosphere.
"It's a great football stadium, soccer stadium. You get inspired when you get here," USA coach Pia Sundhage said.
"It was unbelievable," Rapinoe said. "The way the crowd interacts, it brings a lot of energy."
