Here's a quick tip I know some of us has overlooked at some point. When doing SELECT … UNION SELECT, where do you put the the INTO OUTFILE clause? On the first SELECT, on the last or somewhere else? The manual has the answer here, to quote: Only the last SELECT statement can use INTO […]

UNION vs UNION ALL Performance
When I was comparing performance of UNION vs MySQL 5.0 index merge algorithm Sinisa pointed out I should be using UNION ALL instead of simple UNION in my benchmarks, and he was right. Numbers would be different but it should not change general point of having optimization of moving LIMIT inside of union clause being […]
Possible optimization for sort_merge and UNION ORDER BY LIMIT
Every so often you need to perform sort results retrieved from MySQL when your WHERE clause goes beyound col=const values which would allow MySQL to still use second portion of the index for the order by. Ranges as well as IN lists make this optimization impossible, not even speaking about index merge optimization. Lets look […]
MySQL: Followup on UNION for query optimization, Query profiling
Few days ago I wrote an article about using UNION to implement loose index scan. First I should mention double IN also works same way so you do not have to use the union. So changing query to:
mysql> SELECT sql_no_cache name FROM people WHERE age in(18,19,20) AND zip IN (12345,12346, 12347);
| name |
| ed4481336eb9adca222fd404fa15658e |
| 888ba838661aff00bbbce114a2a22423 |
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)
mysql> explain SELECT sql_no_cache name FROM people WHERE age in(18,19,20) AND zip IN (12345,12346, 12347);
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
| 1 | SIMPLE | people | range | age | age | 4 | NULL | 9 | Using where |
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
So as you see there are really different types of ranges in MySQL. IN range allows […]
Using UNION to implement loose index scan in MySQL
One little known fact about MySQL Indexing, however very important for successfull MySQL Performance Optimization is understanding when exactly MySQL is going to use index and how it is going to do them. So if you have table people with KEY(age,zip) and you will run query something like SELECT name FROM people WHERE age BETWEEN […]
Q&A: Even More Deadly Mistakes of MySQL Development
On Wednesday I gave a presentation on "How to Avoid Even More Common (but Deadly) MySQL Development Mistakes" for Percona MySQL Webinars. If you missed it, you can still register to view the recording and my slides. Thanks to everyone who attended, and especially to folks who asked the great questions. I answered as many as we had […]
Shard-Query turbo charges Infobright community edition (ICE)
Shard-Query is an open source tool kit which helps improve the performance of queries against a MySQL database by distributing the work over multiple machines and/or multiple cores. This is similar to the divide and conquer approach that Hive takes in combination with Hadoop. Shard-Query applies a clever approach to parallelism which allows it to […]
Multi Column indexes vs Index Merge
The mistake I commonly see among MySQL users is how indexes are created. Quite commonly people just index individual columns as they are referenced in where clause thinking this is the optimal indexing strategy. For example if I would have something like AGE=18 AND STATE='CA' they would create 2 separate indexes on AGE and STATE […]
Multiple column index vs multiple indexes
(There is an updated version of the content in this post by Percona's Stephane Combaudon available here.) After my previous post there were questions raised about Index Merge on Multiple Indexes vs Two Column Index efficiency. I mentioned in most cases when query can use both of the ways using multiple column index would be […]
How adding another table to JOIN can improve performance ?
JOINs are expensive and it most typical the fewer tables (for the same database) you join the better performance you will get. As for any rules there are however exceptions The one I'm speaking about comes from the issue with MySQL optimizer stopping using further index key parts as soon as there is a range […]

I was in Tae Kwon Do for 3 years. I made it up to a orange belt with a yellow flag. I learned different forms and techniques from the grand master. He was a pain in the ass to deal with at times but he was cool. I joined the class because years ago when I was at middle school.
This girl I knew sent her brother and he's goons to beat me up. Her brother was a guy from high school and he came looking for me. When I was waiting for my mom to pick me up after school outside. I hear someone call my name I turn around then BAM! I get sucker punched in the face and got put to the ground.
Every student outside seen it and laughed. The brother and his friends laughed at me then ran away. I became a laughing stock at that school ever sense. I hated that guy so bad that I wanted him dead. My mom ended up following a police report on him, and thought I should take self-defense lessons.
Then that's where I ended up taking Tae Kwon Do. I was there until I got to the 10th grade of high school. Alot of fucked up stuff started happening in my life, and I went into a huge depression. Then one day I just quit Tae Kwon Do. Looking back on it I wish I stayed at the school. But at the time I wasn't there mentally I was just to depress.

my build is underway
Hi just a quick post to say hi. I am about to start building my 42" pomei oven. I picked up the bricks today, the vermicucrete is sett and i about to lay the cooking floor.
I am srill undescided about how i am going to build the dome. Is it better to use the indespensible tool or build a sand form. I just cant decide. With the sand i can dobuild faster but without it i can guarantee a better quality finish. I know i should probabpy trawl through but this forums posts seem cavernous.
Re: my build is underway
I just did my dome using a sand form. In hindsight I wish I used the tool, a little slower but able to clean the inside as you go.
My 2 cents worth.
Re: my build is underway
My vote is for the tool. use a mirror to check your work as you go.
Re: my build is underway
Thanks for your help. I went for a polistyrene mould. I wrapped it in duck tape so there was no gaps. I have finished my dome but now a question about insulation.
I have three bags of perlite left over. As i am a tight yorksire man what thickness of vermiculite concrete will suffice as insulation? Or should i dip my fingers in my pocket and buy some blanket?
Re: my build is underway
"what thickness of vermiculite concrete will suffice as insulation?"
4 inches of 12:1 mix is typical. I would not scrimp on the insulation, a well insulated oven will give you much better performance and versatility.

Boom. Maybe in 10 years, Google can work on Google Contacts, so you can see Google's ad spam without wearing glasses. You know, like the smart contacts in Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol. But with more ads.
And boom. There's probably a market for smart watches. But is it big enough for Apple? Is it really worth their time and effort? Certainly doesn't seem like a game changer.

text: The Atlanta Hawks beat the Brooklyn Nets 105-93 on the road at the Barclays Center. This was the fourth and final meeting between these two teams this regular season. This was also the first game of a back-to-back set for the Hawks. With the win, the Hawks improved to 37-29 on the season, 2-2 in the regular season series with the Nets, and 1-0 in their back-to-back set. The starters for the Hawks were Devin Harris and Kyle Korver in the backcourt, DeShawn Stevenson and Josh Smith at the two forward spots, and Al Horford at center. Louis Williams (torn ACL, right knee) and Zaza Pachulia (sore right Achilles) were the two inactives for the Hawks. The leading scorer for the Hawks was Al Horford, with a game-high 22 points. He also grabbed 11 boards, giving him a double-double on the night. Josh Smith added 21 points, seven rebounds, and five dimes. Dahntay Jones contributed 13 points off the bench in his best scoring game as a Hawk so far. Kyle Korver scored 12 points. Jeff Teague had a double-double, with 11 points and a career-high-tying 15 assists. The Nets were led by Joe Johnson and Deron Williams, who scored 18 points apiece. In the first quarter, the Nets outscored the Hawks 24-21. In the second quarter, the Hawks outscored the Nets 30-25 to take a 51-49 lead at the break. In the third quarter, the Nets outscored the Hawks 24-20 to retake the lead, 73-71, heading into the final frame. In the fourth quarter, the Hawks went on a 19-6 run, and they got the 12-point victory. I think the key to this Hawks win was ball movement. The Hawks totaled 30 assists, compared to 17 for the Nets. Great win for the Hawks, improving their position in the Eastern Conference playoffs.

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. Overview Top Spin 3 is a tennis game that was developed by PAM Development, published by 2K Sports, and released in 2008 on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Wii, though the Wii iteration differs quite a bit from the other home console versions. A watered-down portable version was also developed and made its way onto the Nintendo DS. The American cover of Top Spin 3 features Roger Federer at the front with Maria Sharapova and Andy Roddick to the left and right of him respectively. Andy Murray appears instead of Roddick in the British cover.GameplayTomas Berdych hitting the ball The Top Spin series has always been known to take a more realistic approach when it comes to the actual game mechanics, with a larger emphasis on player position and momentum to beat your opponent. Top Spin 3 is no different. Shot selection and placement is more important in this game than the more arcade-like rivals such as Virtua Tennis, which means choosing what to do with the ball is key to winning a rally. Balls can be hit flat, with top spin, or with slice, while drop and lob shots can also be executed. The game features an evolved control scheme, which makes significant modifications to the gameplay compared to previous installments. A hold-and-release system is implemented to allow for greater flexibility; the player must hold down a shot button before the ball reaches them (starting at about the point at which the ball crosses the net), and then release just after the bounce to hit the shot. During the time the button is held, you can manoveur the player into the best position for the shot to maximise power and accuracy. This system puts an added emphasis on anticipation and variety to beat an opponent. All of these characteristics make Top Spin 3 an initially tricky title to get into. However, a tutorial mode walks the player through the basic and more complicated concepts of the game. Single-Player Top Spin 3 includes a variety of game modes:ExhibitionExhibition allows two or four players, either all human or a mixture of humans and AI-controlled characters, to play a singles or doubles match with no repercussions. You'll probably have to face Roger Federer at some pointWorld Tour The meat of Top Spin 3 is in its World Tour mode, where after creating a new tennis player, you start your career at the bottom as an amateur, slowly working your way up in hope that you will one day be invited to join the professional tour. By becoming the world number one, you will then have an opportunity to become an all-time tennis legend. Winning matches grants XP, which can be used to improve your created player in different departments, and unlock points, which can be spent at the shop to acquire new clothes and gear.TournamentThe other single-player mode is Tournament mode. Here, the game allows you to compete in a variety of individual tournaments without playing through the World Tour. Multiplayer Multiplayer allows use of your created character from your offline career mode. There are two different modes that can be played online: Player Match This is a typical exhibition singles or doubles match. World TourThe World Tour mode allows you to enter several tournaments, including Grand Slams and Masters. In a tournament, you are drawn against others who have entered. By winning successive matches, you can progress through and eventually win the event. You can only enter each tournament once, so if you get knocked out or end up as champion, you must wait until the season ends before trying again. Each season in this mode lasts fifteen days. Character Creation Top Spin 3 includes a deep character creator. All sorts of things like gender, individual facial features (like eyes, nose, mouth, jaw, and cheeks), hair, stance, and technique can be modified. When altering the player's face, you can either use preset options or use sliders to have more control over the look.Roster Due to contractual obligations, Rafael Nadal is only available exclusively to the PlayStation 3 version of Top Spin 3. Players that feature in both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions are as follows: The gentlemenMen Roger Federer Andy Roddick Andy Murray David Nalbandian James Blake Tomas Berdych Gael Monfils Tommy Haas Mario Ancic Mark Philippoussis The ladiesWomen Justine Henin Svetlana Kuznetsova Amelie Mauresmo Maria Sharapova Caroline Wozniacki Nicole Vaidisova Legends Boris BeckerBjorn BorgMonica Seles The Wii roster does not include Borg or Seles. VenuesMany of the events featured are based on their real-life counterparts. This includes three Grand Slams and eight Masters tournaments. Wimbledon does not feature, as the developer was unable to attain the rights for it. A fictional grass court in Ireland is used instead. There are dozens of different venues that can be played in:Brinsley Carlenton Court - the game's equivalent of Wimbledon Grand Slams Australian Open - Melbourne, Australia (Hard)Roland Garros - Paris, France (Clay)Brinsley Carlenton Court - Dublin, Ireland ( Grass) US Open - New York, USA (Hard) MastersPacific Life Open - Indian Wells, USA (Hard)Sony Ericsson Open - Miami, USA (Hard) Roland Garros Stadio San Alessandro - Rome, Italy (Clay)Hamburg Stadhalle - Hamburg, Germany (Hard)Canada Tennis Center - Toronto, Canada (Hard) Cincinnati Tennis Center - Cincinnati, USA (Hard) Madrid Indoor Sports Arena - Madrid, Spain (Indoor)BNP Paribas Masters - Paris, France (Indoor) Other Hard Venues The Indian Wells Masters Vienna Tennis Center - Vienna, AustriaSeoul Colosseum - Seoul, South KoreaEstadio do Sol - Estoril, PortugalTexas Arena - Dallas, USAAmsterdam Tennis Park - Amsterdam, NetherlandsAbhijava Stadium - New Delhi, IndiaChicago Public Courts - Chicago, USASilvije Krleza - Omis, CroatiaAtlanta's Doves - Atlanta, USAKobe Community Tennis Courts - Kobe, JapanEl Sol Spring Camp - Mexico City, MexicoMediterranean Leisure Club - Zekynthos, GreeceTennis Park - Hamilton, BermudaOther Clay VenuesBarcelona Tennis Arena - Barcelona, SpainWestside Drive - Houston, USABuenos Aires Tennis Center - Buenos Aires, ArgentinaCasablanca Tennis Complex - Casablanca, MoroccoTeranga Tennis Court - Dakar, SenegalOther Grass VenuesLondon Tennis Club - London, EnglandThorsten Brom Stadium - Munich, GermanyBoston Bay Tennis Center - Boston, USANew Hampbridge College Court - New Hampbridge, EnglandOther Indoor VenuesMoscow Tennis Arena - Moscow, RussiaDubai Sports Complex - Dubai, UAERio Beach Tennis Center - Rio de Janeiro, BrazilTokyo Tennis Box - Tokyo, JapanSuva Sports Resort - Suva, FijiStavgaard Tennis Hall - Stavgaard, Sweden SoundtrackThe game has a licensed soundtrack of eight songs from six different music artists. The track that features most prominently--for example, in the opening montage and the main menu--is "Huddle Formation" by British indie band The Go! Team. Other artists and songs in Top Spin 3 are: Boys Like Girls - "The Great Escape" Calvin Harris - "Acceptable in the 80s", "Disco Heat", "The Girls"Franz Ferdinand - "Do You Want To?"Jamiroquai - "Canned Heat" Stone Roses - "Fool's Gold" The Wii VersionTop Spin 3 on the Wii is slightly different when compared to the Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 games. While there is no World Tour mode or online multiplayer, it does have a handful of party games that can be played with three friends. The game is also played with motion controls using a Wii remote and a nunchuk attachment, and is much easier to pick up and play, as is expected from a Wii title. The DS VersionIn addition to the majority of players and venues from the home consoles, the DS cart also contains Play Now, Career, Tournament, and Minigames modes and multiplayer functionality. The Career mode is similar to the World Tour mode, but has a few changes, most notably the option to play training games to boost your player's stats or to play event minigames to earn new items for your character. Reception Top Spin 3 on the DS The Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of Top Spin 3 were generally positively received by gaming critics. The majority of reviewers discuss the tough learning curve, but conclude that once you get the hang of the game, it becomes very satisfying to play. IGN noted that "deep controls liken Top Spin 3 to the genuine article more than most sports games", calling them "inaccessible" but in time "you'll reap the rewards". Eurogamer calls it a "technical tour-de-force" and the "thinking man's tennis title", but 1UP was less complimentary, saying that it's "prohibitive to folks who don't want to spend hours in the school of hard knocks". The Wii and DS iterations garnered mixed reviews. Some critics have commented on how the Wii game lacks the depth and lasting appeal to make it a memorable tennis simulation. Top Spin 3 on the DS has been acknowledged to be a vast improvement on Top Spin 2, as its predecessor suffered from severe frame-rate issues, but opinion is split on whether the core gameplay is fun or not.

"iPods were popular but shit" is just a weak argument. It works better with hipster glasses, but then, I thought it was all the Apple users who were the hipsters. I get so confused!
The amount of butthurt from nerds on slashdot over the success of the iPod and subsequent iOS devices is hilarious.
oooh. Flamebait if I ever saw one. I think parent was pretty reasonable in his/her comment.
The tangible sense of "not getting it" swirls around like a dark cloud, just because something became popular that wasn't exactly what you wanted from a product, thus it is impossible to believe that the success is down to anything other than marketing to braindead consumers.
Actually, it's quite easy to come up with examples of when the general consumer... consumes... substandard stuff rather than the good stuff.
- Beer. Budweiser (the American variant) is the most sold in the world.
- Audio. Range compression (english term?) makes many pop songs sound loud, but make them lose in dynamic range. Consumers in general don't care.
- Food. Fast food compared to anything else.
- Games. Farmville compared to anything.
- Books. Dan Brown... Sigh.
- Films.
- ... and so on.
So.. What makes you so sure parent isn't "getting it"?

(1) - I definitely write unit tests for, and especially involving, private methods. They are typically the most granular, allowing you to test the smallest 'unit', and are doubly interesting because they may capture objects in an 'unclean' state.
(2) I often start off writing a 'UsageTest'-method that isn't a unit test per se, but lets me imagine a usage scenario for an aspect of the class I'm about to create. The 'UsageTest' method puts me in the role of the coder going to use the tested class. It lets me get a feel for how I would want the class to work, for example see which parameters I have convenient access to, rather than which parameters the class would prefer.
The 'UsageTest' method(s) then become some kind of 'Intended Usage' documentation.
I find this to be a pretty good way to keep focus on what you need to implement to make the class work, rather than just creating methods at whim until they can be refactored and coerced into a workflow.

Eg: If the user intends to get a discrete GPU, as you say, s/he will have approx $150 more to spend on the GPU if s/he picks the AMD solution. A $250 GPU vs. a $100 GPU is a pretty significant difference. Thus if graphics matter, the user should pick the AMD solution.
(*) of which there is possibly a boatload to consider. Socket longevity, thermal design power, ability to build a quiet system, ability to use ECC memory, etc. Not only price, but also many 'features' favor AMD since AMD tends to enable ECC, AMD-V and such in consumer CPUs, whereas you have to step up to Xeons to get that from Intel. However, some properties such as Computational power per Watt tend to favor Intel in a significant way. Where I think we agree, is that with Intel you can get pretty much everything you can get from AMD, provided you're willing to spend the money (Eg. step up to a Xeon CPU, add a discrete graphics card).

both companies offer more CPU processing power than most consumers can use anyway.
Ok. Noted. Either will do fine CPU-wise.
AMD's built-in GPU handily beats Intel's built-in GPU
Ah. Great. So AMD is the better buy then.
Not only that, but it will save ~$100 on the CPU and ~$50 more on the motherboard. That's GREAT advice.
But no.. Then we hear this;
If graphics are a big concern, they should get a cheap discrete card as one under $100 will be good for most games. Thus AMD's advantage is negated.
Ummm.. First you made a good case for AMD, and now you're saying they should pick Intel anyway, and not only that, They should cough up an extra $100 on top of the ~$150 extra they already need to cough up, just to negate AMD's advantage. WTF? Why not just pick AMD in the first place then?

Just because he was having a camera, does not mean he is recording anything. Next you will want to assault anyone talking on a smartphone. After all it also has camera and he might be just faking the conversation.
If you're talking in a mobile phone, it doesn't look like you're recording, and people will probably give you the benefit of a doubt. If - on the other hand - you have a head-mounted camera, it looks like you may be recording all the time.

RTFA yourself. Images are being recorded all the time. The images published on the website were saved because they weren't overwritten. That's different from 'not being recorded'.
To me it seems the Mann guy acted like a moron, but I wasn't there, and there's only one source for the story.
One thing that bothers me about his story is the way he touts the 'paper written by his doctor'. The camera is obviously not mounted there for medical purposes, so in what way is it significant that the paper is written by a doctor? It seems Mann uses the doctor-title rather than the contents of the paper to try to trump us into believing it is significant.
Of course, what bothers me most is how he walks around visiting and filming in various places where he shouldn't, just because he himself has designed the glasses so they can't be removed. That the camera is non-removable does not make it OK.
It would be nice if someone could design an EMP generator, mount it in a non-removable fashion to their body, and then go visit this Mann chap, and dissuade any protests from him by touting a paper from a hockey goalie.

Sport, Militarism and the Great War by Thierry Terret
Book DescriptionThe Great War has been largely ignored by historians of sport. However sport was an integral part of cultural conditioning into both physiological and psychological military efficiency in the decades leading up to it. It is time to acknowledge that the Great War also had an influence on sport in post-war European culture. Both are neglected topics. Sport, Militarism and the Great War deals with four significant aspects of the relationship between sport and war before, during and immediately after the 1914-1918 conflict. First, it explores the creation and consolidation of the cult of martial heroism and chivalric self-sacrifice in the pre-war era. Second, it examines the consequences of the mingling of soldiers from various nations on later sport. Third, it considers the role of the Great War in the transformation of the leisure of the masses. Finally, it examines the links between war, sport and male socialisation. The Great War contributed to a redefinition of European masculinity in the post-war period. The part sport played in this redefinition receives attention. Sport, Militarism and the Great War is in two parts: the Continental (Part I) and the "Anglo-Saxon" (Part II). No study has adopted this bilateral approach to date. Thus, in conception and execution, it is original. With its originality of content and the approaching centenary of the advent of the Great War in 2014, it is anticipated that the book will capture a wide audience. This book was originally published as a special issue of The International Journal of the History of Sport.

Bad Parent: Clothing Optional. I let my toddler run around naked. By Ellen Friedrichs for Babble.com.
Aside from streaking on a dare at sixteen, and attending an "underwear" party a number of years back, I can't claim to have had a lot of experience with public nudity. My two-year-old daughter, Clementine, on the other hand, is already making quite an impression in the parks we frequent by doffing her clothes at every opportunity.
The first time I got a comment about this, I was more startled than anything. We were in a local playground. Clem was one. The place was practically deserted, and she was naked, playing in a sprinkler.
I noticed a cop stroll in and talk to an older couple sitting at the opposite side of the park. A few minutes later he strolled over to me. "Do you speak Polish?" he asked.
"No. Sorry," I told him.
"I'm trying to tell them they can't be in here without a child, but they don't understand." He paused for a second. "You know, you really should put some clothes on your baby. People like that, you can't always trust them."
At first I was a little surprised. The old folks – who seemed simply to be having lunch – were potential pedophiles? I would never have guessed. Good thing I'm not a cop, I thought.
It seemed more likely that the couple simply rather hadn't understood the sign that read "All adults must be accompanied by a child." I mumbled something about how it was fine with me if they stayed, and that I would keep an eye on Clem.
"They're lucky," he told me. "You saved them a ticket. But you really should put something on your daughter."
I didn't, and as a result I spent the rest of the time we were there worried that the cop would come back and haul me away.
Other incidents have been less amicable, and now that I have a two-year-old, they have also become more common. That's because the two-year-old in question could pass for three and sees no need to stay dressed when it's hot. Or when she's bored. Or if there's water anywhere in sight. Or just because.
That just because was the catalyst for a recent comment we got as we walked into our building. To me a toddler in a onesie is fully dressed, but a woman in the foyer disagreed. "Looks like someone forgot her pants today," she said. I couldn't quite read her tone, yet I felt defensive. "She had a skirt," I said too quickly. "But she took it off."
Just because.
It's funny; despite hearing tongue-clucking and getting vaguely accusatory questions from other parents ("Don't you worry about people looking at her when she's not wearing anything?" "Did you see there are boys here, too?"), I have yet to hear the most obvious and legitimate argument for clothing a baby: accidents.

Unique Clark, Gruber & Co. $20 Struck Over an 1853 U.S. Assay Office $20--Possible Set-Up Piece1861 $20 Clark, Gruber & Co. Twenty Dollar (K-8) Struck Over an 1853 U.S. Assay Office Twenty Dollar (K-19) MS62 PCGS. New Kagin designation K-13d (see page 361 of pattern section). Brilliant prooflike surfaces with the center devices sharp and weakness around the edges.
This unique piece was unknown to us until a couple of years ago. We now know of five overstruck Clark Gruber & Co. Twenties. In the upcoming second edition of Private Gold Coins and Patterns of the United States, we plan to list all of these pieces in the pattern section and list them as Set-Up Pieces. This specimen will have the designation 13d. The other known pieces are:
13. Struck over an 1852 U.S. $20;
13a. Struck over an 1857-S U.S. $20;
13b. Struck over an 1849 U.S. $10;
13c. Struck over an 1850 U.S. $20.
Originally we believed that these specimens were overstruck in Philadelphia by the firm who designed the dies--the jewelers Bailey & Company. After further research and discussions with other numismatists, including John Dannreuther of the Professional Coin Grading Service, we now believe that these were struck in Colorado by Clark, Gruber & Co. to check the force of the striking and the spacing of the dies. This would account for the variance of the pressure and sharpness of the impressions. These Set-Up pieces are not unlike other similar types such as those seen for Morgan Dollars, Kennedy Half Dollars, and others. Before striking the regular gold blanks, which would have been considered quite precious even then, these test or trial strikings allowed the dies to first be properly aligned and avoid errors. They are recognizable because their central area is well to fully struck, while the periphery is weak or missing.
Evidently the coiners would take whatever gold coins they had on hand to test the new dies. On this specimen, the striking by the 1861 Clark dies on the obverse (tablet side) of the 1853 Assay Office $20 was not properly aligned causing parts of the host coin to appear as if were over the 1861 impression. While the central part of the Clark, Gruber Double Eagle is well struck (thus causing the flattened host Assay twenty), its periphery is not. This results in an odd looking phenomenon for the date and stars; the date has only a weak top half and the stars are only partially impressed. Similarly, the host Assay twenty details are rounded and not flattened there, as the Clark, Gruber dies did not fully impress those areas.
This also leads to the illusion that the Assay twenty is struck over the Clark, Gruber piece as the Assay detail is on "top" of the date and star detail of the Clark, Gruber since these areas were not flattened in the minting process. (These areas of the host Assay twenty would be just as flat as its central area and fields, if the date and stars area of the die had been fully struck with properly spaced dies.) There also are two obvious sets of denticles apparent from both impressions. This is a most unusual, interesting, and historic Gold Rush coin that represents true pioneer ingenuity in creating a medium of exchange in the underdeveloped West. Unique.

Standing 6'2 with nice length, but a narrow frame he'll need to improve in the coming seasons, Morris is a lean shooter who has the quickness to attack a bit off the dribble and the speed to be a factor pushing the ball himself in the open floor. Skill-wise, Morris does the majority of his damage by virtue of his tremendous shooting touch. A terrific set shooter who knocked down 43.1% of his catch-and-shoot jump shots in Fred Hoiberg's NBA-style offense, Morris was the beneficiary of the attention defenses paid to Melvin Ejim and DeAndre Kane. With Kane and Ejim moving on to the professional ranks, the onus will fall on Morris, among others, to pick up their production in other areas. Morris did quite a bit of scoring in transition a year ago, but his shot selection left something to be desired. He finished at a below average rate around the rim, and shot a surprisingly poor percentage pulling-up off the dribble against a set defense in limited attempts, two areas to keep an eye on as Morris likely transitions into a much higher usage role as a sophomore. A capable passer, Morris averaged 4.9 assists per-40 minutes pace adjusted a year ago despite playing primarily off the ball. Lacking great explosiveness, Morris is not a prolific drive and dish threat, but he's an unselfish facilitator in the half court. Feeding the post, swinging the ball, and making the simple pass in the two-man game, Morris could provide Iowa State with some relief as it looks to replace Kane's dominant presence. His passing ability, combined with his tremendous proficiency for avoiding turnovers, helped him post one of the best pure point and assist to turnover ratios for a freshman in the past 15 years of college basketball. Defensively, Morris plays with nice intensity and possesses solid lateral quickness, but his lack of strength is a concern long-term. He makes some mistakes from time to time like most freshman, whether it is helping or closing out too-aggressively, but he played with a desire, especially in the post season, that should help him become a very capable defender at the college level. With players like Morris, it's ambitious to look too far past that. Playing such heavy minutes but such a small role as a freshman, Morris showed some potentially interesting tools, but he's still a ways away from being a viable draft prospect. Nonetheless, he's a player whose growth is worth monitoring. [Read Full Article] © 2015 DraftExpress LLC All rights reserved.

Bollywood megastar Shah Rukh Khan Thursday launched the first look of his much-talked about film "Chennai Express" and praised his co-star Deepika Padukone, saying she has gone beyond what was written for her in the script.
"Deepika has done two to three stunning films recently and she has grown as an actor. She is fantastic," SRK told reporters at the launch.
Deepika made her debut with SRK in "Om Shanti Om" and he added: "The fact that she did her first film with me, so I am protective about Deepika and gentle towards her. It was nice working with her again. Deepika has gone beyond what was written for her in the script."
As making a movie is an uphill task, SRK insists that filmmakers should be respected for making the effort.
"We all try hard to make film and it's a difficult job. There is a lot of ifs and buts, slip-ups while making films. So, we have to be prepared for the worse. Filmmakers needs to be respected," he said.
Director Rohit Shetty has roped in Deepika to play a Tamil girl in "Chennai Express" and she has got her accent right.
Talking about it, the actress, who recently wowed everyone with her performance in "Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani", said: "It was just fluke, I had to do nothing."
SRK is known for his knack to jazz up any event and he did it at the launch of "Chennai Express" first look when he joined the composers Vishal-Shekar and sang with them.
The film is slated for Aug 8 release.

"A quick and flavorful pasta salad with salami and bell peppers."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

1 (12 ounce) package
tri-color rotini pasta
3/4 pound
Italian salami, finely diced
green bell pepper, sliced
red bell pepper, sliced
red onion, chopped
1 cup
Italian-style salad dressing
1 (6 ounce) can
sliced black olives
8 ounces
small fresh mozzarella balls (ciliegine)
3 (.7 ounce) packages
dry Italian-style salad dressing mix, or to taste
1/2 cup
shredded Parmesan cheese
FANTASTIC!!! This has to be one of the best pasta salads that I have made, but I do advise to start w/ just one packet of dried Italian dressing mix and go from there (one was all I used and it was perfect for us). I also used one packet to make the dressing that was used in the salad. I grated my parmesan fresh (maybe used a little more than called for, lol), and I think that made a HUGE difference, so definitely do that. I had no fresh mozz. on hand, so I used block and that was fine, but I can't wait to try it w/ the fresh. Hubby commented several times on how much he liked this, so that's saying something. I will def be making this often~YUM! Thanks for sharing. :)
Loved it! This pasta salad was a HUGE hit with my guys. I know it is because it had meat in it! I used 1 cup of store brought Italian salad dressing. I did omit the olives, as we don't care for them. I started with 1 – 7oz. pkg. of dry Italian dressing, and it added enough flavor for us, so I did omit the other 2 packages. This is a salad that improves in flavor the longer it has a chance to meld. It lasted great for a few days to pack in lunches. That is big in this house, as we have 3 people who pack almost every day. This will be a "used often" recipe to have for summer cookouts.

Brought this to the fam reunion it was a huge hit but I only used 1 pkg of the dry italian salad mix
Recipe turned out great, first time ever making pasta salad and will definitely keep this recipe for next time.
We really liked this quick and easy pasta salad. I had to improvise by using shredded mozzarella and only used the dressing, not the dry mix and it was still fantastic! Thanks for sharing, Trish!
Tastes good but less oil in the dressing. And only used one seasoning Italian packet.
Fantastic salad. I also only used only one pkg of the dry italian seasoning mix and the flavors were perfect. The Italian salami is iportant as it has more oil in it and moistened the salad. Made evening before and refrigerated overnight to mix flavors. Just stirred after it reached room temperature the next day. It was a huge hit at our July 4th picnic. My new go to pasta salad.
DH gave this a rare "5 stars" but I'm giving it 4 stars just because I think it could use about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 cups of Italian dressing since the pasta tends to soak up the dressing. All in all a very good pasta salad and a great make ahead dinner and one that could easily be added to ... next time I'll add some grape tomatoes as well.

Strategic execution- please stop innovating
|| Print |
|Friday, February 01, 2013
Want more real breakthroughs faster in your firm or department? Here's an easy way: stop "innovating" so much.
That counter-intuitive approach is the unavoidable conclusion of a fresh look at how most firms approach innovation. You're probably making one or more of these innovation errors. Fixing them will boost your performance.
The three major ways people mis-handle innovation are: wheel reinvention, over-focus on the core, and putting people first (in the wrong way).
Re-Inventing the Wheel
Fred is a lighting and electrical engineer for a firm that designs and builds the interiors of buildings (light, HVAC, power, etc.). They have a core need to run projects, and run them very well. When Fred saw that his firm was unnecessarily losing money too often on projects, he made a classic mistake — he started to re-design the project management process. Himself. Then, he made another version of that mistake, recruiting some peers to help him re-design their project management approach. In isolation. Then, they made a third version of that mistake, inviting everyone in their firm who was interested, to contribute to the effort.
Here's the key — all of them had engineering degrees, yet none of them had heard of the Project Management Institute (PMI). Fred was doing a great job of including internal stakeholders. He just wasn't aware of a universe of external people who had solved most of his project management problems.
PMI gives professional certifications — such as the PMP (Project Management Professional). PMI publishes a massive reference book, the PMBOK (Project Management Body of Knowledge) that includes chapters on all Fred's major problems. PMI and its affiliated vendors run in-person and online training in all areas of the PMBOK needed to earn the PMP.
Fred was leading a hopeless effort to re-invent the PMBOK from first principles. And he didn't even know it. All that time and energy could have been saved, and his firm could have made massive improvements in mere months, if he'd looked outside for some ideas.
When tackling a tough problem, avoid taking a risky trip up the Productization Path.
An Idea is not a Product
An Idea is only a Product when it works outside the lab, in the rest of the world. For example, turning an idea into a piece of software may take as little as 10% of the total effort to bring it to market — the other 90% comes from the rest of the trip up the Productization Path — creating the elements of a Product — quality tests, documentation, user training, a support team, training for the support team, a stock of replacement parts (for hardware products), maintenance manuals, distribution channels (for new product lines), pricing, sales training, sales support material, etc.
The "Sapling Saver" is a great example. The inventor, Craig Smith (on whose advisory board I sit), patented the design years ago. Right now he's walking the long road to productization — building prototypes, filming promotional videos, talking to potential wholesalers and partners.
Once he's done, he'll have a Product.
Risk of the Productization Path
Now, suppose you own a large landscaping firm, and you know you spend $15,000 a year replacing plants that your crews damage while trimming weeds. You have a choice of (a) continuing to pay that money; (b) re-inventing the Sapling Saver yourself (and then maintaining your own equipment) at a cost of many thousands of dollars and several years, or (c) buying real Sapling Savers off-the-shelf for all your crews for $5,000, and getting a warranty, access to replacements, free training videos, etc. Only a nut would pick "b" — yet we do.
Every time you try to develop a solution in-house, you take on all the risks of Productization.
If you can get a good-enough alternative off-the-shelf, you should. If you're a leader and your people come to you seeking approval for an in-house innovation effort, require them to look outside first. (A great resource for that is Skip Sponsel's Emerging Technology Accelerator, a searchable database of productized innovations.)
That's what happened at Northwest UAV Propulsion Systems. NWUAV is one of the largest manufacturers of engines and propulsion systems for UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) in the U.S. Tiny UAV engines normally struggle to turn heavy fuels like diesel (the fuel mandated by their major customers) into uniform, tiny droplets that burn efficiently. Chris Harris and his team at NWUAV opted not to spend years inventing some new droplet-making technology — they licensed five Hewlett Packard ink-jet printer patents, for turning heavy ink into uniform, tiny droplets. The choice leap-frogged their development effort by years — and by licensing patents, they reduced their risk of a competitor acquiring that same technology. Now they're a sought-after strategic partner — they recently formed an alliance with Ricardo and XRDi, two other major players in the UAV industry.
They still have to innovate to adapt the ink-jet technology to the heat and vibration of a flying engine — but that's something they know nobody else has done.

59 year old man | Glendale, CA, USA | Seeking women 38-48 within 20 miles
I aspire meeting attractive gal that will put a twinkle in my deep appreciating broken eyes, err brown eyes. Life lets make it juicy
I've had an interesting ride in life thus far but I am expecting the future to be far more interesting. I'm from Buffalo, NY but became a Californian in 1982 when I migrated out here to begin my engineering career with the fabulous engineering company of Hughes Aircraft. I spent 2 fantastic years there before venturing out on my own with visions of personal company success and a taste at many occupations. My very 1st was day trading the stock market where I had substantial success. I left this occupation because after one year I grew weary of rising at 5 am and keeping my eyes glued nonstop to a computer screen for 7 hours a day. It was very grueling and I decided it was not worth it. My next venture was tutoring kids in math which I loved. About this and others I can discuss in a phone conversation. If you're interested in me I like the phone feature Match offers with emails as a secondary means of communication. Over the years I've met many wonderful women but because of a romantic independent disposition I never really allowed myself many long term relationships. However there were three very serious ones. With each of Jan, Linda and Katie we got to the point of talking about the depths of our love and the long term commitment of marriage. In the end Jan wanted to live only in Florida and I was then a committed Northeasterner. Katie at the last minute decided she had much more of a single life to live. She was still very young. Linda and I spent some time apart and then we simply began to drift apart as we both had met other people. I guess the phrase seize the moment was something we did not practice. That was unfortunate for with Linda I was head over heels in love. She was truly wonderful. So I've drifted thru life never finding someone who could evoke that same feeling in me as Linda had until realizing a few years back that I had now created a fantasy love. Now I have resolved that and have met many women who I think are truly wonderful but I simply was not in a marriage minded state. I now am and that is why I now am seeking to find you, that special woman who I can truly love for the rest of my life. I'm most definitely a romantic. I watch out for my gal 100% and will help with any problems she has and be there to celebrate any joys in life she is experiencing. You are the most special and most important person in my life and I will do my best to be thoughtful, caring, kind, considerate, helpful, supportive, loving, energetic, fun, flirtatious, generous, playful, hardworking, striving, motivated, fit, sharing and well the list goes on. To me this spells love and this I will give you above all. My gal I would want to be happy, settled, committed, LOVING, financially stable, romantic, flirtatious, educated, successful, caring, kind and again so many more great qualities exist that a nice woman could possess. So let us get together and start a wonderful journey and support each other in this mystery we call life. I look forward to meeting you with energetic anticipation. Bob

Middle of the Road
Love Italy and Europe
While some music I can play anytime and anywhere I do like a lot of music simply based on mood or feeling it provokes.
I love the movies. It really relaxes me and lets me feel very very free. I love exploring what is out there and finding great special restaurants with my honey that then have a special meaning for us. Museums and art are all great pastimes.
Lately basically newspapers. Used to read voraciously. Guess Im on a break.

The monster maroons were fairly unisex except that they had a skirt option for women (not introduced until ST:V).
Nichelle Nichols requested one... and got it for ST III.
But she did not wear a skirt in any of her scenes in ST:III or IV.
Well maybe I'm the faggot America.
I'm not a part of a redneck agenda.
Now everybody do the propaganda.
