Ok, I know the title is quite complicated but the question is hard to make in one line too.. sorry.
Objective: I want to run a callback when all modules are available Problem: what is the fastest way? Example:
the problem begins in the function "runCallbacks" that gets all the new added objects like this:
runCallbacks(newItems/*as array ['a','b','c'];*/){
// now I would need to understand the dependencies of the callbacks
// each callback might depend on one or more objects
// iNeed(['a','b'], toRunThis);
// | |-callback to run when those are ready
// |-are the dependencies
what I was thinking of is this:
callbacks = [[[callbackFunction],['loadedItems'],['notLoadedItems']]]
|-----------it's a single callback--------------------|
has good performance or do you have any better idea? thanks
Another example
this.use(['a', 'b'], function(){/* do something with 'a' and 'b' only when are ready */})
use: function(paths, callback, target/*not used in this case*/){
// "a", "b", 'c' module is available
// "d", 'e' module is not available
this.callbacks.push([[target], ['a', 'b', 'c'], ['d', 'e']]);
// | |-not loaded
// |-loaded
// then an object might be added
// then will check if this new object may make some callbacks to run
function(newPaths/* ['d'] */){
// loop all callbacks items
// remove items from [not loaded array] and put to [loaded array] if
// exists in newPaths
// in this case the callback already has: a,b,c; but misses: d,e;
// now it will add "d" to the loaded array
// and now only miss the "e" path
so if a callback needs "a" and "b" but not exists saves the callback for when both are ready I add the "a" and "b" module and then I want to know witch callbacks are ready to run;
a callback might have multiple dependences the "a" module might be used by multiple callbacks that's why is a little bit complicated

The SQL Server Agent service will not start after you attach the msdb database from a server that is running SQL Server 7.0 to a server that is running SQL Server 2000. The following error is recorded in the SQLAgent log:
For the default instance, the instanceName is MSSQLServer. For the named instance, the instanceName is the actual instance name.
SQLServerAgent cannot start because the instance of the server () is not the expected instance (instanceName)
You might also receive the error when you upgrade SQL Server 7.0 to SQL Server 2000, if the program cannot upgrade the msdb database.
NOTE: The SQL Server 7.0 system databases are not compatible with SQL Server 2000. Do not try to back up or restore, or to attach and detach procedures on the SQL Server 7.0 master, model, msdb or distribution databases to SQL Server 2000.
This article is useful, if you have already mistakenly attached a SQL Server 7.0 msdb database to a SQL 2000 server, and you cannot start SQL Server 2000.
When the SQL Server Agent service starts, it calls the sp_sqlagent_get_startup_info stored procedure to get the instance name to connect to the correct instance of SQL Server.
The problem occurs after you attach the msdb database from a SQL Server 7.0 server to the SQL Server 2000 server.
During the attach process, the sp_sqlagent_get_startup_info stored procedure is not upgraded. The SQL Server 7.0 version of sp_sqlagent_get_startup_info cannot pull out the correct instance name; therefore, the failure occurs.
To resolve this problem, re-create the msdb database by running the Instmsdb.sql script from the SQL Server (or the latest service pack if the server has a service pack applied) Install folder in SQL Query Analyzer.

Business of the Month
March - Michelle Kruse, My Dietitian's Kitchen
Since its founding in 1976, the Smithville Area Chamber of Commerce has served as the foundation of a business network of local merchants and citizens. The organization understands the value of social networking not only in helping area businesses and residents succeed but also in strengthening the community. It serves as an information center that answers questions concerning all facets of Smithville from businesses, products, services, and retail. In addition, potential new residents stop by to ask questions about the community, tourists stop in for visitor information, business owners pop in for numerous activities and many would be surprised to know local residents are invited to join as individual members. The Chamber door is always open to people who want to see Smithville succeed and their goal is always the same - to bring together businesses, professionals, and citizens to use their talents and ideas to encourage a balanced and successful community to live, work and play.

Stanwix Park is the cleanest and neatest park I have ever been to. The lawns were like bowling greens and there was never any litter anywhere. The entertainment was top notch, with state of the art sound systems in both concert rooms, with an artist on nearly every night, all being of the highest standard.
Cannot be faulted on any aspect.
We really enjoyed our stay and would return here again.
This was our third year in a row and enjoyed our stay. We had issues with the cleanliness of the first caravan we were assigned to. However, after reporting the matter the staff acted promptly and assigned us to a similar caravan.
One slight issue we have is the time the children's evening entertainment commences. We recommended our friends join us on our stay with their 2 year old son. As the entertainment commences at 7:30, their son did not make two of the nights and was awake only briefly for the other.
Our own 3 year old did participate more than on previous occasions but was flagging after a couple of hours.
My recommendation would be to commence the family entertainment closer to 6pm.
Overall we enjoyed our holiday. We visited the site during term time with our three year old. The site was very clean and quite quiet. Apart from a few of the arcade machines not working and the soft play area being a little smaller than expected everything was as advertised. Two worries I had from reading reviews of the site were the staff and the local children causing problems. I had no problems with most of the staff however one was completely clueless about a ride swallowing my sons money. There were a few local kids hanging around but they didn't cause a problem. If I could go back during term time again I would. I would not visit during high season as the facilities are simple not big enough to enjoy with a crowd. I was told that the indoor pool is very over crowded in the summer (keeping in mind that there is also an outdoor pool). The only thing that I could complain about was the lack of sanitary and nappy bins in the pool changing rooms. Be aware before booking that the site is a 40 minute drive from Carlisle where most of the big shops and restaurants are. Luckily we found a Co op only 5 minutes away. I would not recommend this site if you are easily bored but if you want a nice relaxing break in the country then this is as good a place as any.
Love this site. Clean and friendly and have stayed before. Will come back soon
Very clean caravan and sight . Kids loved it as well .
The only down sound was how close our caravan was to the entertainment facility as they played very loud music late at night, this wouldn't normally bother me it was only because we had two small children with us. Other than that we had a fantastic time :)
We had a great holiday with my Grandaughter. I will definitely be back
Very nice holiday park nice walk to beach very friendly staff
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, weather was brilliant and views over the Firth were extraordinary. Definitely a place to consider in future
Fantastic site. Really clean and very well looked after,me would definitely come and stay again.
We have stayed here twice and have just booked to go again in September. Would recommend going when the entertainment is on as without it the nights can be boring as nowhere else to really go outside of the park. Caravans were of a good standard both times we have visited, this goes for the facilities too. The pool is a bit cold but once you're in your fine, as usual. It is really in the middle of nowhere but we don't mind that as we usually go on days out or entertain ourselves with swimming and bowling.
Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning in September, and we're young adults, haha!
We had a fantastic break at Stanwix Park - the apartment was clean, bright, and had everything we needed - and all the staff were really helpful and friendly. We'll definitely be back!
Lovely clean site and excellent accommodation.
Can't be faulted.
A Fab park, however, further than I thought, kids loved it, very clean park.

The WiFi Enabled T-Shirt
When you're constantly on the move, it can be a challenge to get online with your laptop. It isn't always easy to find a good WiFi hotspot (a designated area that allows you connect to the Internet wirelessly when you're away from home).
Pretty soon, all you'll have to do is look down at your t-shirt to find out if you're in a WiFi area. It sounds like science fiction, but a company called ThinkGeek has made it reality.
Is this high tech concept five years down the road? Ten years? Try later this month. Yes, by the end of October, one of these shirts could be hanging in your closet.
What's this t-shirt all about?
The shirt has glowing bars on the front. As you approach a wireless signal, the bars begin to light up. As the signal strengthens, more bars light up on the shirt.
But there's one caveat: this piece of primo geekwear isn't activated by solar energy. It requires three AAA batteries. Fortunately, you can take out the battery connector when it comes time to wash the shirt. Also annoying is the fact that the shirt can't tell whether the WiFi signal is open (available to everyone) or encrypted (inaccessible without a password).
The shirt was developed by ThinkGeek employee Ty Liotta. It is currently only available in black. (Source: pcworld.com)
The shirt can be ordered online from ThinkGeek's website for $30 U.S. (Source: thinkgeek.com)

Holzer Daddy: Leafs beat Caps 3-2

February 05 2013 08:42PM
After two shaky games, Toronto went on the road and picked up their fourth win on the season away from the Air Canada Centre, playing their game against a weak opponent, capitalizing on their early chances and getting out of Washington with a 3-2 win.
There was a time, perhaps, when the Verizon Center was a tougher place to play. That's no longer the case. The Washington Capitals appear to have squandered the talent they had that had them as a contender each season, but other than Alex Ovechkin and Mike Ribeiro this evening, the forwards looked disinterested, the forwards looked sloppy, and Michal Neuvirth allowed a brutal goal to Korbinian Holzer that stood up as the game winner. Analysis below.

Cam Charron
February 05 2013 12:01PM
The Toronto Maple Leafs enter a game on a two-game losing streak for the second time this season. The first time they did it, they escaped with a 4-3 dramatic overtime win over Buffalo with Matt Frattin as the hero. The Toronto Maple Leafs also enter a game against the Washington Capitals for the second time this season. The first time they did it, they escaped with a 3-2 dramatic regulation win with Matt Frattin as the hero.
The obvious conclusion here is that Frattin steps up in big moments, and against the Washington Capitals. That is called "narrative", gentlemen, a flimsy premise based on one or two pieces of anecdotal evidence ignoring all context surrounding the event.

February 05 2013 10:22AM
I don't have the video available for last night's Leafs game, but a point was made by the Sportsnet crew about Phil Kessel, getting to the goal after the game that triggered a spark.
Doug Maclean referred to the 'turn back' the act of stopping short and turning back with the puck while attacking which I think is a good thing. I feel that's what Kessel has to do break the funk, change it up to catch defenses of guard.
Exactly what Phil Kessel shouldn't be trying to do right now is forcefully score goals.

A walk to Days Lock
Being located in a typical English landscape of hills and dales, meadows, pastures and the Thames meandering through it, Dorchester makes an ideal base for a little hike along the river. Leave the village via Bridge End and Wittenham Lane, passing some beautifully flowering gardens, and you will reach the meadows south of the village. Walk straight on until you have reached the Thames. Turn right and follow the Thames Path upstream towards Days Lock. There is a beautiful little footbridge and a nice place to sit on the grass and watch the ships go through the lock. Cross the meadow behind you and walk along the path between the small dikes. In the distance, you can see an Iron Age fort in the Sinodun Hills. Follow the path until you reach the village again.

Dorchester Abbey
Dorchester Abbey is one of the oldest Christian places of worship of England. In 635, King Cynegils of Wessex was baptised by the missionary Birinus who was later given land by the king to build a church on. More than 1300 years ago, there already was a church on this site. It was thriving for a few hundred years, but later sank into oblivion. Only in 1140, a monastery was founded on the same site. In order to make their monastery more important, the monks claimed to have found the bones of Birinus. The clever coup worked and pilgrims travelled to Dorchester in abundance. With the extra income from them, the abbey could be enlarged, but was dissolved later under the reign of Henry VIII. In the 16th century, only a shabby small church was left of the formerly thriving abbey. Nowadays, after several decades of restorations, the church is fine again - and definitely worth a visit when you are around. Make sure to also stop at the little herb garden in the backyard.
Visit Dorchester Abbey
Built on the site of two earlier Saxon cathedrals, little remains of this important and once prosperous Augustinian priory. However, the existing abbey church dates from around 1140, and is full of interesting bits and pieces. It is well worth exploring, and has its own little museum.

Lord of the Maumbury Rings
The Maumbury Rings is a semi-circular set of earth works located in south Dorchester, Dorset. The original construction was likely completed around 2500 BC. Their original purpose remains unknown. When the Romans occupied the area, they modified the rings to form an amphitheatre. Their handiwork, though slightly changed in the 17th century, is what you see today.
The Rings are publicly accessible at no charge. The locals use the area as a public park, mostly. You can see young couples and dogs out for walkies and teenagers up to no good. Weather permitting, the Maumbury Rings would make a perfect picnic spot.

Maiden Castle
What stands today may look like a big grassy hill, but 2500 years ago it was the largest hill fort in all of Europe. As you walk along its slopes and bumps, the sheer size of it is mind-boggling, as you must remind yourself that this massive hill was constructed by hand - bucket after bucket!
I spent the balance of a rainy afternoon exploring the place. It's a good hike that can be accomplished by those without much endurance. Mind the sheep dung - they hide among clumps of grass.

The Dorset County Museum
The Dorset County Museum holds many artifacts that belonged to Thomas Hardy. A room was designed exactly how his house in Max Point is furnished with his original desks, chairs, pens, books, etc.. What an exciting moment for me to see the very pens he used to write "Tess" and "Jude, theObscure"...two of my favorite novels that he wrote. My girlfriend and I sat next to Thomas Hardy's bed chair.

A Pilgrimage to Thomas Hardy's birthplace.
My girlfriend and I visited Dorset County, the birthplace of my all time favorite author, Thomas Hardy. His novels are an inspiration to me ever since I saw the film, "Tess of the Durbervilles". I then read his other powerful novels, "Return of the Native" and "The Mayor of Casterbridge." But what influenced my way of thinking most of all is his final novel, "Jude, the Obscure".

The rampant factionalism and firecracker unpredictability that marks Israeli politics these days came visiting Los Angeles last weekend.
More than 300 people left their cozy Sunday morning behind to participate in the all-day conference, "Israel: 1999 and Beyond," sponsored by the Jewish Federation of Greater Los Angeles' Jewish Community Relations Committee along with the Jewish Community Foundation. Although aimed at the twenty- and thirtysomething crowd, the conference attracted a wide range of people, from college students to senior citizens. Wider still was the range of topics and diverse viewpoints explored, from Orthodox hawks to Peace Now doves.
The event got off to a rousing start with a panel discussion that featured Judith Miller of The New York Times, Jonathan Rosenblum of the Jerusalem Post, Stuart Schoffman of the Jerusalem Report, Ha'aretz's David Makovsky, and Rabbi Yedidya Atlas, senior correspondent for Israel National Radio and former consultant on Diaspora affairs for the chief rabbinate of Israel.

Our nation's day spas and Etsy artisans were dealt a cruel blow yesterday when news broke that a drug called "bath salts" was behind the Miami "cannibal" attack. Now the Web is saturated with stories about the ultra-dangerous hallucinogens, which can cause the kind of violent delusions that led to Saturday's gruesome incident.
But what most of these stories fail to point out is that not all "bath salts" are created equal. Sure, both are best enjoyed in the nude, but that's where the similarity ends. Some will cause you to crave human flesh, and live in Miami, but others can help relax your muscles after a long day of sitting in a non-ergonomic desk chair. Some contain lavender, others contain Methylenedioxypyrovalerone.
In fact, the Wikipedia page for bath salts has attempted to address the confusion with this terse disclaimer:
This article is about salts used when bathing. For the stimulant drugs inaccurately described as bath salts, see Designer drug#Inaccurate descriptions.
So how are you to know which bath salts are which? It's a daunting question, but to help you, and the entire legitimate bath salts industry, we've created this handy primer to separate the good salts from the ones that make headlines.

In the end, if he has genuinely repented, then it will still be up to each and every person he meets to evaluate the man for how he presents himself today, and it is THEIR problem, not Google's if they might still judge him harshly for it.

Wanting to keep something private isn't a hostile act... wanting to know something that somebody was trying to keep private can be, however.

Unfortunately, such punishment cannot always negate the effects of the harm that was done while someone broke the law in the first place.
And again, this is even *IF* their system for eavesdropping on encrypted communications was function as best as they can possibly intend.
So hey, Mr. Cameron.... I can sincerly appreciate that you might have the very best of intentions, but your goals will deprive entirely innocent people of the ability to even have the most rudimentary protections from people that will use the same abilities that the government has, however illegally, to cause very harm to people who have done nothing wrong except to follow a law that says they are not allowed to take precautions against such means.

The difference makes itself up quite quickly only *AFTER* the car is finished being paid for....

The alternative is to just buy a new car in cash... but not everyone has that kind of money lying around.... even if they haven't bought a vehicle in many years.

It was expected that passengers would at least be willing to compensate drivers for gasoline used, but there was also a general practice of passengers giving drivers an honorarium for their time, typically once every other week or so. The latter of these two was not actually permitted to be demanded by the driver, but it was still a general practice among club members, so in the long run, it was still profitable for a driver.
When I first saw Uber, I at first thought it that it was basically the same thing... Can someone explain why Uber can be against the law when the aforementioned carpool club was not?

Yes. But the nicest ones were cynotype over pt/pd and gum bichromate over pt/pd. Double coating pt/pd on any cotton paper never really made much of a difference for me. As mentioned, double coating on fixed-out baryta makes a huge difference (and is in fact, the only way to go).Anyone done double coat/ double exposure / double development ?
For my cyanotype and gum over pt/pd prints I used cotton papers (Platine, Cranes cover and others) with the old "pin through the edges of the neg and paper" trick to register everything. But before I applied the first coat, I soaked the paper for about 15-30 mins and then let it dry. That, in my experience, took care of any issues of dimensional stability between coats and the registration was fine.
FWIW, both the cyanotype and gum second coatings really added a nice extra bit of "umph" to the prints. But the gum bichromate prints have a very nice extra bit of sheen that gave the shadows some more depth.
Here is a lo res photo of one of the cyanotype over pt/pd images. Forget about seeing any of the subtle tones or depth in such a poor reproduction, but you can see that the registration is decent.

Appreciate any help.
Looks like a SFNO variant
All hail Discordia
the spine grind next to the logo on yours looks exact as the standard force one in UDDs post. I say force one V.

Definitely not a NARK, based on the pics above, thank you.

Good to hear T. Im sure it fits in pretty well at its current home.
Isn't the main feature of a force one that it's a tanto blade?
It's a rare custom based on the sf (special forces) frame/handle. Looks to me like a hybrid force one (war cry) with the nuc air rescue knife.
Perhaps one of a kind, nice piece.
Thank you all for your comments on this.

Lisa, I really like that bottom knife!!!..
It looks like it was done for the same show as the Muddy SFNO's with mud/snakeskin & teeth were offered at (Blade West '06?).
Based on what may look to be two extra serrations added to the four that may have already been applied to the edge, I'm wondering if a small grind error, perhaps on the spine or on the edge near the tip while in the process of making it into one of those SFNO's before the coat was applied got the creative juices flowing and this is what the result of that creativity was. If so, nice save! I'd be willing to bet that this is how a lot of variants come to life...something happens while grinding the knife in question which makes it not worthy of selling as the model it was supposed to be in the eyes of the maker, yet it is still way too good to toss out without trying some grind magic, and violà! ...A very cool variant.
It's a MSSNSFSNARK-v!! (Muddy Snakeskin Special Forces Serrated Nuclear Air Rescue Knife variant) Now that's a mouthful of acronym, lmao!
Whether I'm right or wrong, I definitely think it's a cool lookin' one off.

Eagle River's David Fuller went 2 for 3 and drove in two runs Thursday, leading the Wolves to a 4-3 win over East in Cook Inlet Conference tournament baseball game at Mulcahy Stadium.
Eighth-seeded East scored the game's first run in the top of second inning, but fifth-seeded Eagle River answered with a four-run rally that was capped by an RBI base hit from Fuller in the bottom of the inning.
East put up two runs in the sixth, but couldn't complete the comeback. Jared Laws and Nathan White each belted doubles for the T-birds.
Eagle River's Gregory Long pitched four innings for the win, and Chris Parker pitched the seventh and final inning for a save.
West 4, Bartlett 3
Conner Cleary drove in West's winning run in extra innings Thursday at Oberg Field, sealing a 4-3 win in nine innings over Bartlett in the CIC baseball tournament.

Andrew McAlister (2 for 5) scored three runs for the Eagles, including the winning run on a base hit by Cleary.
John Gutsch pitched five scoreless innings for West and Dalton Gantner-Chapman pitched the last four to earn the win.
Bartlett's Andrew Dickey allowed four hits in eight innings of work and Wynter Gross drilled a two-run double to put the Golden Bears up 3-2 in the top of the seventh inning.

Re: Man, it is sooo hot.
93C is waaay too hot for a card to be running while gaming. At that rate, they won't last that long, despite what either Nvidia or ATI say. I've seen too high a failure rate over the years from cards than ran at those kinds of temps on a daily basis.
The best way to keep a card like the 480 cool (aside from H20) is to vent the side of your case and to put some good 120mm fans right there on the side, blowing into the card(s). I've knocked 12-15c off cards before by doing this.
It's not that difficult to modify your side panel and cut two fan ducts if you don't have them. A 120mm hole saw will do it. I did this when I had my 4870X2s in Crossfire. Cut two fan ducts along the bottom of the window right next to the X2s:
Of course I had to put two badass looking skull grills on them, courtesy of MNPCTech. With a system that mean, I just had to.
So those who want to go SLI with these on air can do it. They'll just have to get a little creative with their case.

All week, the question among convention-goers had been: Will it work? Was the plan to host the final night of the Democratic convention in Mile High Stadium too audacious even for the candidate who defines audaciousness? No candidate had given an acceptance speech in a stadium since John F. Kennedy in 1960. Thursday night was pregnant with meaning, anticipation, and nervousness.
Doors opened for the stadium—also known as Invesco Field—at 1 PM, and while lines were relatively short for convention-goers with credentials, the more than 50,000 members of the public who attended the speech waited in lines up to half a mile long. An indication of the security pervading the night came at the metal detectors, which were staffed by officers from agencies as diverse as Secret Service, suburban-Denver police, the Colorado Department of Corrections, and the Transportation Security Administration. Helicopters circled overhead, and countersniper teams were visible on every stadium rooftop.
The only major problem with the night's program was that there were hours and hours to fill with only a few key speakers, all in anticipation for Obama's arrival and speech at 8 PM local time. Shortly after 3, the first band took the stage, followed by a random-seeming assortment of Congress members, governors, and grassroots supporters punctuated by performances by Sheryl Crow, Stevie Wonder, and a joint performance by John Legend and Will.i.am of the iconic pro-Obama song "Yes We Can," which defined the race back in February. The program stretched long enough in the hot Colorado sun that, in the row in front of me, one woman did needlepoint, a man read a poll briefing, and another worked away on his laptop. Lines for food, beer, and especially pricey bottled water—this was a stadium, after all—were long, although there was never a Dippin' Dots line.

There are loads of buttons available at the convention, but not many come in individually numbered, limited editions.
Perhaps the most coveted button of the 2008 convention in is a small green button with the number 300 interlaced with a picture of a pen. The button—whose theme comes from the hit movie 300, about the Spartans who defended Greece from the Persians at the battle of Thermopylae—is being worn by the 600 or so Hillary delegates who over recent weeks petitioned to force a full roll-call vote at today's convention. When it looked as though the party might try to broker unity after the long, protracted primary battle between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama by skipping the roll-call vote, they swung into action. Yesterday, when it seemed possible that the party would cut off the roll-call vote early, the 300 (who are actually more like 600) swung into action again.
The Republican convention next week in Minneapolis is supposed to be the pessimistic convention: President Bush has approval ratings stuck in the mid-20s, many of the top-tier Senate candidates are staying home either to campaign or to distance themselves from the party's brand, and nearly everyone expects the Republicans to lose seats in Congress in November. So why is it that everything so far at the Democratic convention seems infused with just a hint of dread?
The first night's speaking program, despite its emotional highlights from Ted Kennedy and the Obama children, is being seen as a waste of airtime, at least in terms of firing up voters and introducing Barack Obama to the country. Throughout the convention so far, there seems to be no overall governing narrative, little sense in the first two days that the party is doing what it must to narrow the knowledge gap about the Obamas: Who is Barack, this wunderkind who appeared to the nation just four years ago? What's his background like? What are his values like? Can he connect with me? Can he feel my pain?
Meanwhile thousands of police from dozens of agencies wandered the streets—even the U.S. Coast Guard was visible on the street, though the closest body of water was the tiny brook that gives the name to the Denver neighborhood Cherry Creek. Heavily-armed SWAT teams rolled through town hanging on the outside of their SUVs and armored vehicles. Flights of helicopters circled overhead throughout the day while on the street police in riot gear wandered looking bored from one underwhelming protest to another. The warm dry day this meant that sidewalk cafes were full and many receptions and parties throughout the day spilled out onto the street, where teams of aggressively helpful and cheery convention and Denver volunteers sought any excuse to provide assistance to those navigating the downtown.
Much attention is paid at the convention to access — who has what credential to get into where, who has what invitation or hook-up to get into which party. Some of the most coveted documents around are complicated spreadsheets denoting hour-by-hour where the party is and who is taking RSVPs. There are only a couple of people at the convention who don't require credentials to get into either the Pepsi Center or parties — Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and their wives. Pretty much everyone else has increasingly thick lanyards hanging from the neck.
One of the hottest credentials in Denver is turning out to be the All-Access pass to the CNN Grill, just inside the security perimeter next to the Pepsi Center.
DENVER—John McCain can't win the November election. That's not to say, of course, that Barack Obama can't lose the November election. Make no mistake—Obama could still lose big. But for better or worse, this election isn't about John McCain.
As we watch the dynamics of the election shape up and Democrats convene here in Denver to celebrate the nomination of a new type of presidential candidate—one who not only is the first African-American to head a national ticket but also represents a new generation of hope and change in a way that only a few transformational candidates in history have ever done—it's clear that this election is Barack Obama's to lose and that he might, against the odds, do just that.
This weekend saw a clear example of how he might go about it.
Conventions in modern-day are little more than the excuse to throw a party — or more accurately lots and lots of parties. Sunday night in Denver, even before the actual convention got under way at the Pepsi Center on Monday, the party scene was already in full force. Outside of the city at the Red Rocks amphitheater, global warming activists Laurie David led a green event for thousands, headlined by Sheryl Crow, Dave Matthews, and Sugarland. At the pre-reception, hosted by Dominion Power for delegates from Ohio, West Virginia, Virginia, Maryland, and Pennsylvania, Western food was in abundance — bison sliders and venison sausage, along with baked beans, corn on the cob, and make-your-own s'mores.
Virginia Governor Tim Kaine, dressed in a Hawaiian shirt that he would absolutely not been allowed to wear had he been named the Democratic vice presidential nominee on Saturday, worked the reception. His Virginia state troopers mingled at the edge of the audience with the Pennsylvania troopers assigned to protect Ed Rendell, who was also greeting the members of his delegation. Environmentalist Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., was a big hit with the crowd, although his smart suit made him look out of place with the casual audience.

UN special rapporteur on violence against women Rashida Manjoo said after visiting a number of cities, including Glasgow and Edinburgh, she found a "boys' club sexist culture." in Britain and said this influences perceptions of women and girls.
Ms Manjoo also warned Government cutbacks have hit violence-against-women services and confirmed reports she was blocked from entering controversial immigration detention centre for women, Yarl's Wood.
The South African human rights expert said legal and policy responses focused on harmful practices, such as early and forced marriages but ignored harm coming from a "a sexist culture that exists in the country".
She added: "Have I seen this level of sexist culture in other countries? It hasn't been so 'in your face' in other countries.
"I haven't seen that so pervasively in other countries. I'm sure it exists but it wasn't so much and so pervasive. I'm not sure what gives rise to a more visible presence of sexist portrayals of women and girls in this country in particular.
"What is clear from these indications of portrayals of women and girls is that there is a boys' club sexist culture"
Ms Manjoo said she had identified "isolated pockets of good practice", but these were still not practised consistently. She said many groups had raised the impact of austerity measures, adding that cuts were having a "disproportionate impact" on the provision of violence-against-women services.
