Nuclear Deal: a Bad Strategic and Energy Bargain
As negotiations to finalise the United States-India nuclear deal enter what is likely to be their ultimate phase, it is apparent that the Bush administration's options are limited. It cannot propose a bilateral "123 agreement" on terms that differ significantly from those of the Henry J. Hyde United States-India Peaceful Atomic Energy Cooperation Act, passed last December.
Bluntly put, it is India that will have to "adjust" its expectations and policies to the Hyde Act in respect of the sticking-points that remain: the scope of bilateral nuclear "cooperation"; guarantees of uninterrupted supply of fuel and spares; India's "right" to reprocess imported fuel; and the consequences of another nuclear weapons test by India.
As Daryl G. Kimball, executive director of the Arms Control Association (which opposes the deal), puts it: "[E]ven if the Bush administration wanted to, the U.S. negotiators simply do not have the leeway to concede much more to India."
This puts Manmohan Singh in a bind. Singh made solemn commitments to Parliament that there would be no departure from the original July 2005 agreement, which says the U.S. accepts that "as a responsible state with advanced nuclear technology, India should acquire the same benefits and advantages as other such states… [such as the U.S]."
Since then, Indian hardliner lobbies, especially Department of Atomic Energy officials, have raised the bar by underlining the centrality of the "right" to reprocess fuel because India's long-term nuclear programme hinges on reprocessed plutonium, to be used in fast-breeder reactors.
This "right" is unlikely to be conceded—unless there is a dramatic shift in the US stand. Nor does the Bush administration have the will or political capital to demand of Congress that the US should continue nuclear cooperation even if India conducts another nuclear blast.
A "123 agreement" that substantially differs from commitments made to Parliament is bound to invite the charge that the government has compromised India's sovereignty.
However, even more important than this procedural case against the deal is a substantive argument that critiques its strategic consequences and energy implications.
It essence, the deal is about admitting India to the Global Nuclear Club, led by its most powerful and weapons-addicted member, the US—as part of an emerging unequal US-India "strategic partnership". It will legitimise India's nuclear weapons although India is not a signatory to the Non-Proliferation Treaty. In return, India will also sanctify the US's nuclear weapons.
India will thus jettison the cause of global nuclear disarmament which it has championed for 60 years, and to which the UPA promised to return. This will set a negative example and further weaken the case for restraint on the part of the non-nuclear states.
Contrary to propaganda, the deal won't promote restraint on India's part. India's military-nuclear capacity will increase. By importing uranium for its civilian programme, India can dedicate domestic uranium exclusively to weapons.
India's nuclear weapons pursuit, with US approval, will provide ammunition to countries like Iran and North Korea, and could provoke a rethink in states that renounced nuclear weapons, like Germany, Japan, Sweden, Brazil and South Africa. The deal will create resentment in Pakistan—at a time when the India-Pakistan dialogue is delicately poised. It could also intensify an arms race not just with Pakistan, but with China.
As deplorable as the deal's strategic implications is its promotion of nuclear power as the precondition for India's rapid economic growth. The assumption is that nuclear power is an abundant, safe, environmental benign and economically competitive energy source, which is rapidly growing the world over, and emerging as a solution to the problem of global warming.
This assumption is comprehensively wrong. It's mired in naïve, techno-romantic thinking of the early 1950s. Despite huge subsidies, nuclear power has betrayed its early promise and turned out to be ruinously expensive, difficult to manage, unacceptably unsafe, accident-prone, and environmentally unsound.
Currently, the unit costs of nuclear power are 40 to 70 percent higher than those of coal- and oil-fired electricity plants. The history of nuclear power is a story, according to energy consultant Amory Lovins, of the greatest failure in the world's industrial history. It's also a story of euphoric projections and missed targets. Thus, had the nuclear industry's quarter century-old projections materialised, the globe would have had 10 times more nuclear power than it does. India is a prime example. We're still well under half of the target (10,000 MW) set for 1980!
Nuclear power contributes just 16 percent to global electricity generation—and an even more modest 6 percent to its energy production. This contribution will shrink rapidly in the future. In place of the 114 reactors (of a world total of 435) that will be retired within a decade, only 29 new ones are under construction, according to the International Atomic Energy Agency, an international body mandated to promote nuclear power.
Even the conservative pro-nuclear Economist magazine concedes that most reactors in the rich countries, which account for two-thirds of the world total, will close down. Major countries like Germany, Britain, Italy, Sweden and Belgium are phasing out nuclear power. Even France, which draws 79 percent of its power from the atom, has shut down 11 reactors and has plans for only one new reactor.
There's no global nuclear reconnaissance, as romantically predicted. Only a few Asian countries, including China, South Korea, Indonesia and India, have plans for major nuclear expansion.
Nuclear power bristles with safety and environmental problems. Radiation is the most ubiquitous. Each stage of the nuclear fuel cycle releases ionising radiation, an invisible, intangible, silent poison, which damages DNA and causes cancer or genetic disorders. Radiation can't be eliminated; only relocated. Radiation is harmful in all doses—in routine emissions, as well as big releases.
Nuclear power is highly accident-prone. It involves complex, interlocked systems operating at relatively high temperatures and pressures. Chernobyl (1986), which has claimed 95,000 lives, remains the world's worst-ever accident. But all reactor types can undergo a catastrophic accident with a similar core meltdown. No amount of extraneous or marginal "protection", like containment domes, can remedy structural flaws in existing reactor designs. The probability of a Chernobyl is admittedly low, but its consequences are totally unacceptable.
Radioactive wastes are nuclear power's worst legacy. All nuclear activity produces wastes; some remain dangerously active for thousands of years. Thus, plutonium-239 has a half-life of 24,400 years. And uranium-235's half-life is 710 million years!
Science knows of no container which can even safely store such wastes for so long. No geological formations are stable for that period. Building nuclear plants is like constructing homes without toilets, only more dangerous.
India's nuclear programme has been a spectacular failure, marked by huge cost overruns, gigantic subsidies running annually into thousands of crores, missed targets, and unsafe practices. DAE targets have never been met. Had its 1970 plans materialised, India would have had over 50,000 MW by now—15 times more than actual achievement.
By contrast, renewable energy sources have performed impressively in India. Wind power capacity has already notched up 6,300 MW, compared to nuclear's 3,400 MW—without heavy subsidies. India's wind potential is 60,000 MW-plus. Other renewables too are becoming competitive. But indigenous uranium can't even sustain 8,000 MW of nuclear power.
Contrary to the claim that nuclear power is necessary for energy security, self-reliance and prosperity, it contributes less than 3 percent to India's power generation. Even if the Atomic Energy Department's always-overambitious targets are achieved, its contribution will only increase to 6 percent by 2050. That's still marginal.
Fast-breeders, on which the DAE's romantic long-term plans are based, have proved a failure everywhere—most notably in France which invested heavily in them, and in India too.
Nuclear power is clearly NOT the way forward for India. Nor is the deal with the US.

Register now for the 8th annual MobileBeat, July 13-14, where the best and brightest will be exploring the latest strategies and tactics in the mobile space. The latest from the big Apple vs. Samsung intellectual property legal fight is that the case isn't ready to be judged by a group of peers. The two companies are currently locked into a highly publicized legal battle over intellectual properties related to mobile devices. Basically, Apple claims that Samsung's Galaxy Tabs/phones (and other devices) are ripping off the iPad/iPhone, which Samsung naturally denies. Aside from unleashing numerous prototypes, the trial has amounted to both sides arguing over what's different about each others rectangle-screened devices. Today, judge Lucy Koh is asking the CEOs of both companies to meet one final time before the case gets sent to a jury for deliberation. "I don't mean to waste their time," Koh said, adding that it's in the best interests of both sides to trim down their arguments and reduce the number of claims. Apple and Samsung have agreed to meet, but given the 90-minute opening statements from the companies when the trial began, I'm not sure how much will actually get accomplished.

Being Realistic about Spring Cleaning – Chores and Organizing
This past week we've done a heap of fun activities, but I've been spending most of my spare time — not blogging — but doing some spring cleaning and organizing. I was in the mood to put some music on and clean… but to be honest, I get overwhelmed by those long, long, looonnnnngg spring cleaning lists. To make sure I'm feeling good about the process I make sure I only choose a few out-of-the-norm chores to tackle at a time. More than that and I feel like it's hopeless.
So my spring cleaning list looks like this…
Rather than this…
A list like this just makes me want to give up before I've begun!!
So, this past weekend I tackled just a few extra jobs around the house. The kids and I dusted all over (can you see why?!!) and I got up and did the fans in the homeschool room…
I also vacuumed the basement and cleaned the ceiling corners in the basement and the sliding glass door runners.
Tackling just those few chores made me feel great! I've just got to keep my goals reasonable!
Meanwhile, the kids still help out with what we call "chores-to-help-the-family." We've come to say that as one word!! Generally once a day I'll ask the kids, "Can you please do a chore to help the family?" We have a bowl in the kitchen that has lots of chores folded up on paper (see this post Rethinking Chores from last fall) and they can choose one from the bowl, though now the kids will usually ask if they can just (do a swish-n-swipe in the bathroom or vacuum one room or whatever). It's great that they'll pitch in and help. The system has evolved, but what I love is the kids' willingness to help out.
The other thing that needed to be done was organizing the games and supplies cabinet in the homeschool room. It has felt SOOOoooooo good to haul things out of the cabinets and put the things the kids have outgrown into bins to send to Hubby's cousin (who has an 8-month old)…
wooden puzzles–out they go…
shape matching–too easy for ED…
memory game that hasn't been played for more than a year-outta here…
preschool pages–not relevant, toss them out!
Just look at this give-away pile as I pulled thing out!
When we lived overseas lots of families came and went. Since we stayed for 12+ years (in Central Australia) our friends passed us lots and lots of great stuff (not to mention the grandparents, aunts and uncles)! It will feel wonderful when I get all this boxed up and sent off to the cousin!
I also went through the kids' workboxes (which is where we store most of our day-to-day homeschool materials) and tossed out a lot of printables and papers that accumulated, but that we won't use again.
If you're interested in seeing a bit more about how I organize our homeschool room you can check out this post from last August: Organizing Our Homeschool Room or one from a year and a half ago, Our Homeschool Setup. You'll see from those posts that we have a patch-work of furniture pieces… a craft table given to us by a friend (we sawed off the legs to make it shorter), an old computer desk that Hubby's work was getting rid of… cabinets that came from the 2nd-hand shop, 40 year old coffee tables from Hubby's grandma. Nothing fancy, but it works!
I think I was in such a rush to tackle this room because the weekends in the spring will be so busy with soccer season starting up again soon. Both DD and LD want to play — so that'll entail practice twice a week plus games on Saturday. I had that bee in my bonnet that this job HAD to get done!
So that's it… spring cleaning at the Homeschool Den… small, manageable goals that feel great when the day is done!

I think that's why it took me so long to get rid of them. I tried to remove some of this stuff last year, but the girls said they were still interested in them. Honestly though, they hardly used any of it this past year. It was definitely time to pull it all out and send the stuff on its way to a new home!

Love it! Maybe I can follow your example and tackle a FEW things. I also love the idea of Chores to Help the Family.

1. In a large pot, put together water, milk and quinoa; let it cook for 5 minutes until quinoa is done.
2. Add in the banana, oatmeal, oatmeal bran, salt and cinnamon powder; cook for another 3 minutes.
3. Add in the walnut, brown sugar and vanilla; mix well.
4. Serve hot quinoa with blueberries.

Perhaps this is a tread that has been hashed to death, I hope not. Has there ever been any statisical analysis to support why the ever changing line-up is a good/bad idea? Does trying to play every last possible match-up really pay off? Or is it an example of being too clever for ones own good?
My perception of history is that teams of old had a set line up that rolled out day after day barring injury, trade or the odd day of rest. Is this accurate? If so, has the game changed in some fashion to demand changing line ups?
My opinion is that we've been through enough of the season to get a feal for our mix of vets and youngsters and their capabilities (slumps asside). I'd like to see a realtivley set line up, maybe with some variation for righty/lefty matchups or to give enough playing time to keep the utility guys fresh.
Based on the comments of various players over the years, my impression is that they too would rather have a set line up, know where they are playing on a given day and generally be given a role to play.
So my questions are:
1) Is there statistical analysis to support/dissprove the ever changing line up (assuming it's even possible)?
2) Historicially have teams really had "cast in stone" line ups?
3) Has something about the game changed to force the fluid line up, or is it the flavor of the month?
4) What is your opinion of using them?

Billups happy to be in Detroit and playing the point again
Jul 31, 2013, 1:36 PM EDT
The Clippers have the best point guard, the best floor general in the game in Chris Paul. For the past couple seasons they had the up-and-coming Eric Bledsoe behind him.
Which meant Chauncey Billups was at the two spot.
He was the good teammate and did it, but it was not his preference. Throw in the Achilles injury that limited him to 22 games last season and things just didn't feel like they got in a groove for Billups.
Now he is back in Detroit as a Piston, a place he feels comfortable, and he told Marc Spears of Yahoo Sports he's excited to play the point again.
"I'm 36 and I'm going to be 37 when the season starts," Billups said. "I've accomplished everything I tried to accomplish in basketball. So I don't have anything to prove. But to my own personal self, I want to end my career playing my position and just doing what I do….
"I definitely wasn't disappointed," Billups said. "I didn't want to be a two-guard anyway. I did it there because it's a way for me to get on the floor. You are playing behind the best point guard in the league in Chris. I never saw myself as a shooting guard. I never wanted to play it."
Just acquired Brandon Jennings will be the starting point for the Pistons, and they have Will Bynum back to also take up some minutes as a scorer off the bench. Billups will fit in that mix and get a healthy share of minutes at the point.
Where he may most be needed is in the locker room — the Pistons added the personalities of Josh Smith and Jennings to the mix. Two guys with a lot of confidence (maybe too much at times) who want to take a lot of shots and not always good ones. How the shot distribution and flow of the offense works out could lead to some friction, having a veteran like Billups in the locker room can help diffuse some of that.
Then after this season he can step up into the front office.
- nycalldayz - Jul 31, 2013 at 1:58 PM
I think Billups might be making a mistake returning to Detroit. At this stage of Billups career he's suppose to be moving further not going back. I understand he's familiar with the Pistons, but that was 8 or 9yrs ago when they're contending. Right now the Pistons have a couple of nice young pieces, but it's hard to imagine Billups playing along side Jennings and Smith. Billups should be playing for a contender, but who am I to judge.
- asimonetti88 - Jul 31, 2013 at 3:13 PM
Chauncey has won a championship, played in tons of big playoff games. He has stated that he wants to transition into the front office when he is done playing, which is in the near future. Playing for a rebuilding team will give him opportunities to learn about developing and identifying talent, and if he wants to get into the front office in Detroit, he will have an intimate knowledge of the team from the inside. I have a feeling Detroit has a "secret deal", if you will, with him to hire him in the front office after he is done playing.
- misterdreamer119 - Jul 31, 2013 at 2:21 PM
Hes a coach on the floor collecting a nice paycheck.
- casualcommenter - Jul 31, 2013 at 2:41 PM
I would guess that the hope is that what Jason Kidd did for JR Smith, Billups can do for Smith and Jennings. Namely, get the players to become more disciplined and play to their strengths.
Detroit would be a very good team if that happened.
- 2dmo4 - Jul 31, 2013 at 6:47 PM
I'm glad he's back as well. Shoulda never been traded in the first place.
- dezglobal - Jul 31, 2013 at 11:24 PM
He dsnt have to be what he was… This is a new era for him.

Among the Finest at PCGS
In terms of the condition of those survivors never released into circulation, it is edifying to compare them with, say, the 1929 Philadelphia issue, one that also saw mass meltings but some survivors of which certainly saw circulation. While most certified 1929s cluster in the single grade of MS64, with smaller numbers of 63s and 65s, the 1932 coins actually show a larger total of MS65 and MS66 pieces combined than the number of MS64s. Accounting for the outlying pieces on either side of the noted grades, the average certified 1929 is barely MS63, while the average grade of a 1932 is over MS64.
The foregoing statistical discussion is just that, statistics, all to make the point that the "average" 1932 double eagle is found considerably nicer than the "average" 1929. But the current piece is another example in this memorable run of double eagles that has nothing to do with averages! According to the current PCGS population data, this is one of six MS66 pieces certified at that service, with none finer. NGC has certified 10 pieces in MS66, along with three pieces in MS67. One must always remember, however, with such coins where a one-point grade difference can make a huge difference in the price, that the 19 "submission events" at both services could represent no more than perhaps eight to a dozen individual coins.
The collaborators on The Coinage of Augustus Saint-Gaudens as Illustrated by the Phillip H. Morse Collection concur that "as a rule, the 1932 is a great-looking coin with outstanding luster and color. According to Akers, it is superior in this regard to the other late-date issues, except possibly the 1930-S. The color is typically medium to rich yellow or greenish yellow-gold, but some examples exhibit light to medium orange and greenish-gold patina. Most 1932s are very frosty, but some have a satiny texture. Most specimens are sharply struck, though some of the satiny coins reveal softness on Liberty's figure. All in all, the eye appeal for this issue is well above average for the series."
Judging the present coin by the criteria above, it still appears well positioned in terms of aesthetics. The surfaces are more satiny than frosty, with bountiful cartwheel luster radiating from both sides, this coin's chief and most obvious attribute. The surfaces are indeed yellow-orange with a touch of greenish-gold in the color palette. The generous strike extends to Liberty's face and the Capitol dome, although mild weakness is noted on Liberty's sandals. Two small nicks, one just above the eagle's head, a second on the forward wing edge, can be used as pedigree identifiers, although neither is particularly distracting. This bold and beautiful Premium Gem will form the cornerstone of a fine collection. Population: 6 in 66, 0 finer (12/07).

Does The AMD Radeon R9 290X Work On Linux?

Originally posted by trougnouf View PostIt's a lot easier to act like a journalist when given products to review.
He refuses to run tests that are far more relevant then what he does simply because they can't be automated in PTS. This leaves only Unigine as a relevant benchmark.
His testing methodology is broken, always going with a broken default that no user would bother using if they where going to game on the OSS drivers. People who use the OSS drivers are generally more savvy then those that are using the blob drivers installed for them via their distro ala the Ubuntu Additional Drivers app. On top of that Linux users are more savvy then Windows users, thus they would think to look it up or ask on a forum or IRC for help.
What Linux needs badly is a real hardware journalist, because Larabel ain't it.
Originally posted by Serge View PostFor the sake of argument, assume that the way Michael runs Phoronix presently occupies every available second of his life, and that there is no possible way he can increase the effort he puts into the site. Also for the sake of argument assume that Phoronix makes just enough revenue to sustain Michael's endeavors and not a penny more, so hiring outside help is out of the question as well. With that in mind, we then assume that there is no way that anything can be added to Phoronix without something else being taken away. So, based on that premise, what is your specific suggestion for how Michael can improve Phoronix?
You are assuming far too much of Larabel, he's not working his fingers to the bone every day at the keyboard thats for sure, it seems more like he doesn't take his own site seriously. If he did he wouldn't let so many stories pass him by on a daily basis.
Theres all of the software news, server news, Android/Sailfish/Ubuntu Phone news, OSS hardware projects, patent stupidity cases that affect us directly or indirectly and so on and so fourth. If Larabel wanted to make more money off the site and was actually willing to put in the work he could easily have 5x the number or articles in a week of actual content.
Not to mention all of the closed source Linux software out there, I'd love to see a series done of the closed source music and movie editing software and compatible hardware on Linux, sadly Larabel doesn't do these either.
Interviews with devs and businessmen that make or use Linux and/or OSS software, these can be very interesting, yet they are never done here.
Theres so much Linux gaming gaming news going by without any coverage here outside of the odd posting every month or so. He never talked about Desura at all once he started screaming that "Steam For Linux is coming next week" every week for a solid 3 years before the beta finally came out, even when Valve's own devs said that they had no plans to ever make a client.
The whole thing looked more like Larabel made it up as click bait and by chance alone Valve decided to do it. Gabe made his reasons clear, that it only became an option when he saw Microsoft trying to put an App Store on Windows and thus needed a way to ensure profitability through the future, hence the SteamBox running Linux.

I am a journalist, and know how much better Michaels article COULD be IF he had more money, time, support, whatever.
BUT with his given resources I could not ask for more. He beats the shit out of gaming-opensource-news in respect to speed and completeness. And it is easy to just pick the scentences containing the real news, and skip all the repetitions, opinions or requests to help him funding the site, if you read them once before. You usually only have to read the headline and the last paragraph as a crude rule of thumb.
So Michal - good job! Go on boy - you are the top notch of open-source graphics stack news out there, even without actualy having time for many quality articles. If somebody knows about a better site for linux-news, tell us? Maybe Michael could even join forces with such a site (if they like each other ...)?!? I know there are more linux-news/interviews etc. out there, but for cpu/mesa/graphics/gaming/steam/benchmarking THIS is your news site (if you are not a mesa-developer yourself )Last edited by tomtomme; 10-25-2013, 06:34 AM.


text: Many times when i try to activate my plugins in Wp 2.0, I get the 'activated' pup up after clicing on the activate button, but the plugin doesn't activate. I litterally have to click activate hundreds of times sometimes to get a single plugin to activate. What is going wrong? Also is there a way to change the plugins.php code so that a plugin activates itself once it is dropped into the plugins folder, and deactivated when removed? That would save me a huge headache! I am on a shared unix server by the way, which may be part of the issue.

Simple Baked and Breaded Scallops
Total Time: 15-25 minutes
- 2 pounds bay or sea scallops
- 1½ cups bread crumbs
- Juice from 1 lemon
- 4 tablespoons butter, melted
- Salt and fresh-ground black pepper, to taste
- Preheat the oven to 385° F
- Mix the scallops, lemon juice, and half of the melted butter in an ovenproof baking dish and add a small amount of salt and pepper, as desired. Sprinkle the bread crumbs evenly over the scallops and then drizzle the remaining melted butter over the bread crumbs.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the scallops are just cooked through—approximately 10 minutes for bay scallops and 18-20 minutes for sea scallops. If the bread crumbs have not browned nicely, switch the oven setting to broil for one minute until the desired color and a slightly crisp texture is achieved.

Bike Clinics. After a number of people mentioned to me in passing that they would love to bike to work but their bike had some mechanical problem that they never seemed to find the time to fix, we organized several free bike repair clinics. A few other volunteers and I set up a 2-hour window during which anyone could bring their bike by to get some free repairs and tips on bike maintenance. This has really helped to get some people "unstuck." Running the program twice a year seems to be enough to keep people rolling.
Prizes and Giveaways. Finally, if there's one thing that can consistently be counted on to motivate people to change their behavior, it's free stuff! From giving out free lights and ankle straps to organizing free brown-bag lunch sessions on safe bike commuting or how to stay warm and dry in bad weather, to free bike maps, or even baking cookies for new bikers, we find that an offer of something free often gets new people to try out biking to work. Planning an event during National Bike to Work Week (May 14-18) gives you a good excuse to host an event, plus increases the chance you can get free stuff to distribute from your local government.
While there are many other things you can do at work (getting your company to offer the Bicycle Commuter Benefit, organizing a Green Commuter Challenge, and much more) any of the above can help encourage more bikers at your workplace. If your company is reluctant to put a bit of money behind your proposals, try reminding them that more and more companies are encouraging their staff to walk and bike simply to lower health care costs (even if they're not interested in the environmental benefits).
If you're interested in this topic, the League of American Bicyclists' Bicycle Friendly Business Program is not only a cool way to get green bragging rights for your workplace, it also has lots of tips on how you can make it even better. Going through the application process and reading about all the possibilities inspired me to pursue a number of improvements to my own workplace, which has already led to more bike commuters!
Please share some of your own tips for promoting bike commuting or even greening your office in general in the comments section.

I think there just isn't anything new really other then kernels no new OS atm to play we have sense up to 3.0 and why port much much more? I do see improvments in each ROM though just slower EVO 3d is hoping cause they don't have anything
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
Yeah, it is important to understand that the big rush in the beginning is:
1) Get root
2) Wait for Source code
3) Fix **** ups from the manufacturer
4) Make modifications [possibly from other devices] to improve Android overall.
It's been over a year, all that's been done. While improvements are still coming constantly...the bulk of that work for the Evo is, well, done.

XmlWriter.WriteStartDocument Method (Boolean)
When overridden in a derived class, writes the XML declaration with the version "1.0" and the standalone attribute.
Namespace: System.Xml
Assemblies: System.Xml (in System.Xml.dll)
System.Xml.ReaderWriter (in System.Xml.ReaderWriter.dll)
This is not the first write method called after the constructor.
An XmlWriter method was called before a previous asynchronous operation finished. In this case, InvalidOperationException is thrown with the message "An asynchronous operation is already in progress."
The encoding level of the document is determined by how the writer is implemented. For example, if an Encoding object is specified in the XmlTextWriter constructor, this determines the value of the encoding attribute.
When WriteStartDocument is called, the writer validates that what you are writing is a well-formed XML document. For example, it checks that the XML declaration is the first node, that one and only one root-level element exists, and so on. If this method is not called, the writer assumes an XML fragment is being written and applies no root level rules.
If WriteStartDocument has been called and then the WriteProcessingInstruction method is used to create another XML declaration, an exception will be thrown.
For the asynchronous version of this method, see WriteStartDocumentAsync.

Things that go bump in the night are just the beginning when a summer film project becomes a real-life ghost story!
Nothing ever happens on Avery's grandmother's sprawling farm, where she and her brother spend the summers. That is, until Avery meets Julian, a city boy with a famous dad, whose family is renting a nearby cottage. When Julian announces his plan to film a ghost story, Avery jumps at the chance to join him.
Unfortunately, Julian wants to film at Hilliard House, a looming, empty mansion that Grandma has absolutely forbidden her to enter. As terrified as Avery is of Grandma's wrath, she finds the allure of filmmaking impossible to resist.
When the kids explore the secrets of Hilliard House, eerie things being to happen, and the "imaginary" dangers in their movie threaten to become very real. Have Avery and Julian awakened a menacing presence? Can they turn back before they go too far?
The Revenant and The Dark Between, both YA paranormal historical mysteries, are currently available from Alfred A. Knopf/Random House Kids.

Boyfriend Looking at Pics of Naked Women with Me in the Next Room?
Okay, so here's the deal...I have a very very hard time being okay with the fact that my boyfriend of 8 months looks at pictures of naked women. And... Show More
Most Helpful Opinion
You don't have a problem he does. Actually its kinda wrong what he is doing. If he can't understand that leave him. For a woman with self-esteem issues this is kinda a slap in the face. Especially if he knows you have issues. On your end you need to build some confidence, and being with someone that looks at pics 24/7 of other women does not help. Payback is a Bit** get a vibrator go in the bathroom get off walk past him and go to sleep.
Thank you. Coming from a guy, your answer means a lot. Especially since the only reason he can give me for doing it anyway is that he's a man and that's what men do.
What Guys Said 2
What Girls Said 1
Hi rebelliousrevelry,
First, I have to say that you're really cute, and you have no reason to under-estimate yourself. You are smart, sensitive, and thoughtful.
That guy is wrong, he shouldn't treat you that way. I'm telling you that because, if I were you, I wouldn't stand him, and I would immediatly dump him.
Tell him to stop, otherwise, do what you need to do : leave. Because you deserve much better.
Thanks for the compliment and I really appreciate your advice. The only thing is I would feel bad if I gave him an ultimatum like that. I don't want to restrict him or control him by any means.
Have an opinion?

What's New
Microsoft Outlook

Outlook works with Microsoft Exchange, Office 365, Outlook.com (including Hotmail, MSN), Gmail, Yahoo Mail, and iCloud.
Why use Outlook?
Manage your inbox

• Swipe to quickly delete, archive, or schedule messages.
• Schedule emails and they will return to your inbox at a later time.
Your calendar built-in
• Switching between your email and calendar apps is a thing of the past. Outlook includes your calendar and notifies you with appointment reminders.

Note: Currently for Gmail and iCloud accounts. Other email platforms coming soon.
Mailbox is a completely redesigned inbox that makes email light, fast, and mobile-friendly. Quickly swipe messages to your archive or trash. Scan an entire conversation at once with chat-like organization. Snooze emails until later with the tap of a button — they'll return to your inbox automatically so you can focus on what's important now.
Mailbox checks your email from the cloud and delivers it to your phone securely. Now with Auto-swipe, Mailbox learns from your swipes and snoozes to automate common actions. Mute that conversation you don't care about, snooze messages from your friend to this evening, or route all of your receipts to a list — automatically.
Mailbox's delightful UI and smart features make getting to zero — and staying there — a breeze. After you experience a clean inbox, you'll wonder how you ever lived without it.
"Already the app I use most often."
— MG Siegler, parislemon.com
"The best email management app you'll ever use."
— Ryan Lawler, TechCrunch
Inbox by Gmail
Your email inbox should help you live and work better, but instead it often buries the important stuff and creates more stress than it relieves. Inbox, built by the Gmail team, keeps things organized and helps you get back to what matters.
• HIGHLIGHTS - Get the most important information without even opening the message. Check-in for flights, see shipping information for purchases, and view photos from friends right up front.
• BUNDLES - Similar messages are bundled together so you can deal with them all at once. And get rid of them with one swipe.
• REMINDERS - More than mail, you can add Reminders so your inbox contains all the things you need to get back to.
• SNOOZE - Snooze emails and Reminders to come back when you are ready to deal with them: next week, when you get home, or whenever you choose.
• SEARCH - Inbox helps you find exactly what you're looking for— from your upcoming flight to a friend's address— without having to dig through messages.
• WORKS WITH GMAIL - Inbox is built by the Gmail team, so all your messages from Gmail are here, along with the reliability and spam protection of Gmail. All of your messages are still in Gmail and always will be.

— Yahoo mail (previously, ymail)
— Mail.com
— Apple (iCloud, me.com, mac.com)

What our users really say:
— No fuss, no hassle, great free android email app and an attachment reader to view photos.
— Really convenient! I could sign in to Windows Live Hotmail, Google mail, Yahoo and AOL mail within one email application for Android.
— Loving it! Simultaneous access to my hotm account and googlemail!
— I am able to separate and stay up-to-date with my personal and work Outlook Hotmail mailbox, awesome :)
— Best e-mail client which also works well as an email attachment opener.
— I don't use two separate apps (yahoo mail and gmail app), both email accounts in one mailbox app now.
Email security is our key priority. Our app uses OAuth authentication to sign in to Hotmail, Gmail and Outlook accounts and does not request users' credentials. Instead, access to users' data is required directly from Microsoft and Google websites, which ensures a secure e-mail login.
EWS protocol is not supported yet however keep an eye on future updates.
If a sign in problem occurs on your device, send details to email@example.com including your email address, IMAP, POP or SMTP email settings and we will resolve the issue.

"Boomerang allows users to schedule messages to send at a predetermined date and time, or "boomerang" them back into their inbox if there's no reply or if a message requires follow-up." -AndroidPolice.com

WiFi Manager
Includes home screen widgets: one displays detailed connection info, another lets you switch among your favorite networks with a single tap, and yet another toggles WiFi Access Point.
Can scan for and switch to the best network out of several configured.
New and improved:
• "Material design" widgets (version 3.5).
• A UI redesign (version 3.0): modern looking icons, swiping between list and radar views.
• Assign your own descriptions and icons to individual WiFi networks - never forget what that "XYZ1234" network is;
• Switch among your favorite networks with a single tap by using the WiFi Network Switcher widget. It will even enable WiFi if needed.
• "Best network" to switch between different networks you may have around the house or office (off by default, enable in app settings);
• Automatic switching between fixed and dynamic (DHCP) IP addresses (Android Settings in 2.* can't do this);
Some features require that you purchase the $1.75 premium package, available right in the application through Google Checkout (safe, secure).
These features are: advanced per-network options (description, icon, IP address), the one-tap network widget, and two widget themes inspired by Android 5.* (Material Design, since version 3.5).
All the other - essential - features are free: the widget with detailed connection info (four sizes, two free themes), scanning and connecting to networks, the network list view, the network signal radar.
Orders are processed and saved by Google and can be reactivated after a phone reset / flash, or on a new phone.
About requested permissions:
"Change system settings" is needed to switch between fixed and dynamic IP addresses, if configured so.
"Prevent phone from sleeping" is needed so you can enable automatic scanning and discover open networks around you.
"Read USB storage" for notifications about open networks, when enabled, and the sound file is picked from the memory card.
"Market billing service" is needed to make purchases.
Since version 2.5, supports per-network IP address and proxy server settings on Android 3.* / 4.*, included in the free version.
If you have an issue or a question, please contact me at email@example.com (email is also shown in the about box and below).
Also - a visually matching Bluetooth toggle widget. Find it below under "Related" and "Developer Info".
Aqua Mail Pro Key
This is the Pro version unlocker key for AquaMail which turns Lite version into Pro.
Please install the base, free application first.
The unlocker is compatible down to Android 2.1+. The current version of AquaMail requires 4.0.3+.
AquaMail is an email application for Android.
Please see the main app or the web site for a detailed description.
The unlocker lets you configure more than two accounts, use identites (aliases), and removes the promo signature at the bottom of each outgoing message.
Bluetooth Widget
* Quick access to Bluetooth settings
* Updated design for Android 2.x - 4.x
* Widget sizes and layouts have landscape mode
Bluetooth switch time varies by phone make and model.
Visually matches WiFi Manager - a tool to manage WiFi connections, including a pretty widget. Find it below under "Related" or "Developer info".
Country filter is set to "All countries". If it's not available in your country, please contact Google.
AquaMail SmartWatch Extra
This is a module which adds notifications for messages received in Aqua Mail on your Sony SmartWatch (the new models, MN2 and SW2).
Message sender, subject, and a short preview are shown for each message.
Nothing important? Clear all current notifications on the SmartWatch without touching your phone and quickly get back to whatever you were doing.
Something needs attention? Launch Aqua Mail on the phone by clicking an icon on the SmartWatch.
Requires Aqua Mail to be installed first (see below, under "More by Kostya Vasilyev"). Both free and full versions are supported.
This application will not be shown in your phone applications list. Run Sony SmartWatch Manager application (free here on Play), then select Applications / AquaMail SmartWatch Extra / Settings and configure which accounts to receive notifications for.
I cannot provide support for compatibility issues between the Sony SmartWatch NM2 and your Android phone. In theory, all Bluetooth-capable phones are compatible, but in practice, I've found that some could not connect.
I will provide support for this app's functionality, of course. My email is shown in the app listing below.

This is the current Rewrite rule of Drupal set in my htaccess file:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !=/favicon.ico
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !=/index.html
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA]
This works well, but the problem is that I want to have a custom page which will open when people browse to the website. More specific:
www.company.com/ should open index.html All other pages should use the default rewriterule of Drupal.
I tried editing the DirectoryIndex, but then all pages are redirected to index.html.
DirectoryIndex index.html index.php
I also tried adding different Rewrite Rules but I didn't have any luck yet. Htaccess is not my best skill.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^/$ /index.html [L]
Probably there will be an easy solution, but I can't figure out what to do.
Does anyone know how to solve my problem?

Kill Your TV: New Year's Eve 2009
As the Negative Nancies at Gawker noted earlier this week, New Year's Eve is a polarizing holiday. In pursuit of the mythic ultimate best time ever, partygoers find disappointment and drunken embarrassment as often as euphoria. And if you're in New York, you're probably already freaking out about the inevitable choice between the self loathing of paying out your last few dollars at a lavish party and the crushing resignation of watching the ball drop from the confines of your living room.
Of course, there are any number of ways to go with option three, actual fun, and we've got 4-1-1 on all of them at Flavorpill. But just in case you needed any more reason to separate yourself from the TV, here's a summary of what the networks have lined up. And yes, Dick Clark is alive (at 79!) and involved.

As we noted several months ago, David Barton is now leading the fight about Common Core and, in that capacity, recently sat down for a discussion about it in Oklahoma where he made the standard, utterly unfounded claims about how Common Core would lead to the use of iris scanners on students who will be implanted with biometric tracking devices.
But it wasn't only where Common Core would lead that Barton was worried about, as he also warned that the content of the curriculum is heavily focused on indoctrinating students by teaching them about things like global warming.
Barton insisted that while global warming does occur, is it not man-made but rather happens naturally and is no different than normal temperature fluctuations.
"Global warming occurs," Barton stated, but "we haven't had it in sixteen years. But anthropogenic? That hasn't been proved at all, not by a long shot. Anthropogenic means man-caused global warming. I mean, we've got cycles, you bet. That's why we have averages. That's why in Texas we go from summers of 70 degrees to summers of a 120 degrees. I mean, it's averages":

Limited-time feature
34 year old woman | Phoenix, AZ, USA | Seeking men 29-45
Nice and simple girl, looking for a simple a nice guy
I'm Brazilian (a bad one: I don't know dance samba, I don't like carnaval and not a big fan of soccer) and I'm pretty much new in this country (I've been here for 1.5 years) and don't have any intention of leave. I'm a postdoc fellow in a hospital (but I'm not a geek) and moved to Phoenix to improve my career but I don't put it above relationships. I believe that both are important. I would describe me as introverted (but not shy, I just need time to get comfortable with new people), the spotlight is not my best friend, polite, analytical (some time too much), open mind (but there is a limit), giving, kind and warm person (hug, kisses, holding hands, cuddling), independent woman (because I need be but I would love to have somebody to help me and take care of me sometimes). Some things that I like and like to do and for what would be nice to have company: Travel (I traveled a lot by myself but now I want a partner), eat chocolate (a lot of), movie theater (with snacks), sleeping while watching TV, TV shows, going out (but also staying in), simplicity, flat shoes, casual clothes. I also would love to have company to do absolutely nothing (like lazy morning Sundays in bed) I believe in the law of attraction that happens at first looking but I also think that time is necessary to build chemistry. I think love is just 50% of a relationship; the others 50% are friendship, respect, loyalty, trust, same objectives, common interest, sincerity, time for each other, commitment, consideration … I'm a simple and nice girl, looking for a simple and nice guy for a serious relationship, or at least try.
Camping , Coffee and conversation , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Exploring new areas , Travel/Sightseeing
Running, Walking / Hiking, Yoga
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I like Dogs
I'm dying to have a dog!
Middle of the Road
Dreamy Draw, Tempe Marketplace, Lux Coffee, Urban Yoga, any Japanese restaurant
eat chocolate (a lot of), sleeping while watching TV, TV shows, sports, going out (but also staying in), sharing, simplicity, flat shoes, casual clothes, take care about somebody, shopping ...
Travel (I traveled a lot by myself but now I want a partner), movie theater (with snacks). I'm also would love have company to do absolutely nothing (like lazy morning Sundays in the bed).
