To paraphrase, "I come not to praise the Browser, but to bury it." Because the cold hard fact of application development is that the browser needs to die. Immediately. It's already caused more than enough damage. This may seem to be a harsh statement. After all, the browser was responsible for the explosion of the Internet. It serves many useful purposes and people do billions of dollars worth of business through it every year. Seemingly, I should be praising the browser, not calling for its execution.
Nevertheless, the browser needs to go, and we all know it. It's the dirty secret of the IT world, one we never like to talk about - as a mechanism for delivering a GUI, the browser stinks.
Stinks isn't even a strong enough word. The browser was intended to deliver text across the Internet, and it's good at that. So good that people began to piggyback other things onto their HTML code in order to try to exploit a mechanism of enormous popularity to deliver applications. That's where the problems began.
In one sense, it is HTML and HTTP themselves that have let us down. They stopped evolving, stopped trying to grow - and have been coasting, resting on their laurels for years. By now HTML should have evolved a cross-platform mechanism for designing rich controls and multiwindow applications. It should have moved beyond request-response and standardized a bidirectional communication mechanism so that only data need be transmitted. The overwhelming popularity of software such as Instant Messenger and Napster prove that bidirectional communication is possible, and very desirable. Instead, we have frames and a refresh tag.
I've gone on record before regarding the last mile of Web services and SOA - namely the delivery of complex services and user interfaces to end users. This is where HTML should be - it should have evolved as a mechanism to allow us not to just post text content, but to describe application function as it relates to presentation.
Admittedly, this is a complex area, one where others have tried and failed or at best partially succeeded in driving a common understanding. Nevertheless, rather than writing application code in the form of applets or ActiveX controls, would it not be easier to describe behaviors in XML and allow the next incarnation of the Browser to render application displays? If the capability existed, the tools to make application design feasible and simple would soon follow.
Instead, the browser is brain dead. Plug-ins and controls don't help, because for the most part, even though they may be high quality, they are provided by a single vendor and don't have the force and impact of an industry standard. Also, it's too much work to make the browser look like an application, and in the end, you still have to write the entire application in a way that gives developers fits - because of the constraints of the browser.
What is needed is the Post Browser, the Next Browser, whatever name you want to give to it. Sure, it can still run HTML (the old stuff), in a container that is essentially the same as today's browser. However it should be capable of complete look-and-feel customization via a standard markup language. It should provide a rich set of custom controls and be able to access the desktop (with appropriate security, of course). It should have a native, secure, bidirectional mechanism, and one that supports multiple connections so that we can access services from multiple sources in a composite application. It should also have extensible controls so that we can extend and improve the behavior of controls and applications as needed. Furthermore those extensions should become part of the next release of the standard, which shouldn't take years to come forward.
So I say "Death to the Browser" - bring on a real application platform.

I couldn't agree more. DEATH TO THE BROWSER!! Developing applications for the browser is a royal pain in the a*s. Then alongs comes ajax and all it's hype. The more I looked into ajax the more I was underwhelmed. from the hype you'd think it was going to revolutionalize the browser but all it has done is prolonged its death and forced developers to learn yet another object model. don't even get me started on control positioning. you might as well write a novel using a stone tablet and chisel.
I am a full-time developer and backup network admin for a medium-sized company, and there was a time in the not-so-distant-past where I spent almost as much time "fixing" computers with malware due to browser security holes as I did in application development. It has gotten a little better thanks to better security appliances (and NO thanks too browser improvements). I am moving away from web apps as my primary development tool and back to windows clients. deployment tools are getting much better as is pushing out updates.
I think one example of a balanced mix between web and windows clients is iTunes. I don't know anything about how it was developed, but I believe this model, or some form of it, is the future.

I agree. But, the correct solution was given long back. It is the applet-servlet communication. If only, people were not so adamant not to download JDK in their system, we can have the best of both worlds, so easily. I suggest that all browsers have automatic downloading and installation of a lightweight version of JDK in the calling machine.
|Gary Cleal 11/15/05 01:18:59 PM EST
All these comments have been made in the context of the article "Death to the Browser". Going back to the thrust of that article, what is being suggested is that the browser in holding back the development of applications that suit the needs of users. There is no argument about that, as an architect the major problem still faced by all enterprise class applications is to structure a simple, efficient and engaging interface for the users (particularly enterpise users).
And let's be clear, I did not say that MXML and XAML are superior to (xforms and AJAX), I said that they where superior to xforms and XUL. There is a way to say that, because all 4 technologies are designed to do the same thing: Define an application user interface. And as such XAML and MXML are simply more extensive, being able to define a broader set of applications than XUL or XFORMS can.
I am in no way "dis-sing" AJAX, it has its role to play and I have been using the core technology element (XMLHTTPRequest) for about 6 years (2 years after it was invented by Microsoft for OWA)
The other technologies are working at a level up from what goes on inside a browser (it's an outside-the-box kind of thing).
|Luke 11/15/05 12:14:23 PM EST
I don't think any posts suggest AJAX is the panacea for UI. It's Really Damn Good for making better UI's on web applications, but no-one is suggesting CAD could be done in a web app with typical AJAX.
AJAX very much addresses the interface issue because of the way it improves the transport issue. The UI is about the user's experience, and AJAX really improves that experience.
There's already a pretty slick AJAX word processor built into Gmail for composing messages. And my Google personalized home page has toolbars and tabs that are "aware of each other." Not to mention I can add plugable content by throwing in my own RSS feeds, or search results.
But that's all just tit-for-tat. The point is that UI highly situational. There is no way to say MXML and XAML are "superior" to XFORMS and AJAX. It's all dependent on what one is doing.
Yes, there are applications where a web approach would butcher the user experience. But that number of applications got smaller when good AJAX design became prevelant. Ignore it at your own risk.
About four or five years back I came to the same conclusion, and began experimenting with an application I called SNAP which on paper would have ticked pretty much all the boxes in your article. It linked and configured Java components (either built in or dynamically fetched on-line) together via an XML document, which also contained scripts (I used Rhino, the Java JavaScript implementation, to begin with) to glue everything together. All the components could interact via a 'DOM', which also stretched across networks to reach components physically located on other computers (ala RPC/RMI).
The ultimate idea was that you didn't 'save' your work, you 'bookmarked' it. So you could shut the client down, go somewhere else, access your bookmarks and select the project, and the necessary IU and data would be loaded on your new client so you could resume your work. Not only did the data follow you around from place to place, but the application itself did too.
Obviously the scale of the work (the above is only a brief outline of my idea) kind of got to me - I knew from the start that I'd bitten off more than one person could chew. And nobody else seemed to appreciate the idea - so inevitably this 'spare time' project ran out of steam and was mothballed after a few weeks. Ever so, it was rather interesting 'messing about' just seeing what worked and what didn't. :-)
|johan witters 11/12/05 02:32:11 AM EST
I think the author of this article has no experience with applets nor has he heard about java webstart technology.
|Gary Cleal 11/06/05 06:44:55 PM EST
Imagine if you could!! you could "construct" or assemble applications on-the-fly completely platform independent capable of anything and tailored to the needs of the user at the specific time.
|Mike Dierken 11/06/05 06:28:09 PM EST
All UI based applications have some sort of UI definition language. Whatever is missing from HTML is minor (given the success of the existing Web) and can be added as the need arises.
In fact, the evolution of HTML as a UI definition language is evolving, but as a widely adopted standard, that evolution is slow. Take a look at the WHAT-WG for an example of the kinds of things that will happen to HTML over the next 1-2 years: http://www.whatwg.org/
What specific part of a GUI were you unable to build within a browser when you tried?
|Gary Cleal 11/06/05 03:27:44 PM EST
All the posts suggesting "AJAX" as the panacea miss the point. AJAX still relies on HTML, and HTML (or XHTML) is weak at defining an application user interface for all but the most simple applications.
AJAX addresses the transport issue not the interface one.
|Charles Sandberg 11/06/05 02:43:21 PM EST
I think sean the author of this editorial, should turn off his computer and leave the IT field. Want a more client-server action? Try AJAX!
|Luke 11/02/05 09:35:04 AM EST
Wow, talk about 2 steps backward. I don't think I've seen any good Java applet online. And I haven't seen one at all in a couple years.
AJAX is not another sail. It's a set of existing technologies that, when integrated throughout the design, create a different kind of technology altogether. It is the steam power.
XAML and MXML may be the never-ending nuclear-engine substitute, but some ships don't need all that.
And some apps just need a single auto-complete drop-down in a form. You could do it with lots of things, except maybe not an applet, and XAML might be overkill.
It's all pretty situational, so throwing at a perfectly viable and proven approach like AJAX is just plain ignorant.

|Gary Cleal 10/26/05 10:21:32 AM EDT
In my first comment below I put both XUL and XFORMS behind MXML(Flex) and XAML. Both XUL and XFORMS are better than HTML, but both are very "last century" in concept. They both focus on forms and represent an application as a static collection of Interface elements.
XAML by contrast creates a framework for forms, but also includes 2d & 3d graphics rendering, animation, document flow control in a highly compact xml based syntax. XAML has been criticised for lack of CSS support, but the style model within XAML is far more powerful than CSS, again based on an XML syntax, the style element in XAML not only controls visual presentation it can also be applied to behaviours.
MXML like XAML has a richer application construct than XUL and XFORMS, but MXML uses CSS for style, and ActionScript for event handling.
All of these technologies depend on a client side rendering engine;
I gave the thumbs up to MXML because the Flash player is light and already widely distributed.
XUL and XFORMS are quite "retro" and could use an architectural and conceptual overhaul.
|Luke 10/26/05 09:42:17 AM EDT
The possibility of rich user interfaces delivered thru the current browser exists, and it's actually the stagnation in HTTP and HTML that has enabled it.
Everyone knows how HTTP and HTML works and will always work (since they're not innovating). So working with that un-changing base means you can be creative with the rest - things like AJAX, XUL, etc. to achieve usability.
|Mark 10/26/05 08:07:09 AM EDT
It's already happened. Have you ever heard of Firefox ( http://www.mozilla.org ) and XUL ( http://www.xulplanet.com/ )?
|Hamish Lawson 10/26/05 06:31:03 AM EDT
You didn't expand on how HTTP has "let us down".
While not completely addressing your complaints about HTML, AJAX allows browsers to behave more like desktop applications. Wider adoption of XForms might also help close the gap.
|Gary Cleal 10/26/05 06:00:52 AM EDT
I agree with Sean, the browser has always been the weak link in the overall architecture of most applications out there, good riddance!
The question is what to replace it with?
At the moment for me its a toss up between Flex and XAML, for reach, the flash viewer must be close to the most ubiquitous engine capable of rendering rich client interfaces, the downside is the designer, Macromedia have never been able to "do forms" particulary in flash, witness all the cheap flash alternatives for building flash.

|Frank Smieja 10/26/05 01:42:58 AM EDT
But isnt this what Microsoft are trying to do with .NET and the use of XML that leverages the new Windows OS for rich interfaces? Isnt it also where progress is being made via FLEX/FLASH technology? I agree - we need to get more of the fancy and rich interfaces running and built client-side, lettuing just deltas on text and data move over the wire (and i also mean both ways). The big question is though - whose standards do we follow, it is the traditional impasse in IT
|Michael Murfitt 10/25/05 11:43:19 PM EDT
Right on! The use of a browser as a GUI front-end for any application epitomises where IT has gone off the rails. After writing one large 24/7 internet application several years ago (using Coldfusion) I vowed never to do that again, and I haven't. HTML is a stupid and moronic way to write intelligent GUIs. It does have one great asset - it creates work. And it even creates more work in the maintenance cycle.
It has never ceased to amaze me that the old VB3 runtime was smaller than any browser, and the source code of any VB3 application was smaller than the equivalent in HTML. Who were we trying to fool. Yes I know it's a little more involved than that when you throw security into the mix. But that wouldn't have been hard to overcome.
The last five years in IT have been the host of an incredible lack of innovation. Did the change of century shut down all the neurones and let the propeller-heads take control?
|Anon 10/25/05 06:37:24 PM EDT
I didn't see any feedback on this, so thought I'd mention an example of an XML grammar for user interfaces that would use a client (whether browser or not) to manage the local experience:

Logitech Mobile Bluetooth Headset
Good performance and design
Need the charger and the case when on the move
Logitech's wireless range has been incredibly popular - perhaps even the first choice in non-standard peripherals - and their emergence into the mobile phone accessory market with the Mobile Bluetooth Headset follows the trend. The design is eye-catchingly good - smooth lines and a refined finesse. Everything looks right, and feels right. You can work this from any Bluetooth phone, however for purposes of this review we used the Sony Ericsson T68i.
In the box you get the mobile headset and a neat storage case which doubles as the charger when used with the accompanying power supply. Before use, you have the charge the headset, so let's start with that. The case/charger has a 'spaceage' look about it. Whilst the headset sits neatly in it and looks great, you need the charger and the case when on the move. This isn't ideal if you want to travel light although Logitech do suggest that the headset can go 7 hours between charges.
The headset is light and clipping it to your ear is simple and relatively secure - the headset/ear 'interface' can adjust in a number of directions, so if you have ears like the BFG, it should still fit. The boom microphone can also swivel to the optimum position. Once you have stuck to the side of your face, you have some basic controls - a volume control, and a dubious multi-function button, that turns it on, answers a call, ends a call, and if supported, activates voice dialling.
Talking is normal, and much better than the BodyGlove headset. It is almost no different from using the phone, only you look like something out of Star Trek. As far as the caller is concerned, they have no idea you are using a handsfree headset - the voice quality is as it would be using the phone itself, which these days, is very good. The mic picks up the voice and has the ubiquitous noise-cancelling technology. It's no different to using a cabled or mobile phone, except it isn't in your hand, which is the point. Because it works via Bluetooth and not wireless the phone can be up to 10 metres away - useful for strolling around the house or your office. There is little more to say about the functionality - 'it does what it says on the tin', and does it with no problems.
It's all about functionality to price - the product's performance and design is great. At £80 this is still the budget end of the Bluetooth headset market offering good value for money. With more and more emphasis on the dangers of not using a handsfree option when in the car, this allows you to do that, then take it out of the car, still be wire and handsfree and retain some style while continuing the call.

(Greenfield, MA) – The most famous trophy in sports comes to Greenfield this weekend. The Stanley Cup will be at the Collins-Moylan arena Sunday courtesy of Los Angeles Kings Head Trainer and Greenfield native Chris Kingsley. This is the second time in three seasons that Kingsley has had possession of Lord Stanley's trophy, which last time around made a stop in the Boston suburb of Westford, where Kingsley lived during his time as a trainer at Cushing Academy. Sunday's event will be a fundraiser for the Franklin County Hockey Association. A suggested $5 dollar donation gets you a picture with the cup. The event runs from 11 to 2 Sunday on what Mayor Bill Martin has declared "Chris Kingsley Day" in the town of Greenfield.

Wedding Invitations
A wedding can be one of the most exciting and memorable events to plan, but sometimes you are simply overwhelmed and do not know where to start. Wedding invitations are a great place to begin your wedding planning journey to make sure that all of your special guests will save the date and join you in celebrating such a momentous occasion. Our wide selection of stylish wedding invitations feature a medley of different elements and are sure to appeal to you and your fiancé.
From a classic invitation with embossed accents, a modern look with vibrant colors, or something that is more traditional, simple and clean, we have a wide range of styles for you to choose from.
We have designed a large selection of styles for your wedding invitation that include some with a rustic edge, vintage twist, floral flair, spiritual touch, or are adorned with hearts to name a few. Regardless of your style, you'll be able to find something that you'll be excited to share with your guests.
The invitation printing process is another way to incorporate your style into your wedding invitations. The letterpress printing process is great to add a touch of pizzazz to your invitations. Printed in metallic ink for a beautiful, luxurious sparkle, it is the perfect way to take the elegance of your invitations to the next level.
If you are looking to feature an engraved look without the expense, choose an invitation that has thermographic printing. This process raises the lettering on your invitations to create the illusion of engraving (without the cost!)
Not only do we offer invitations that are beautiful on their own, but you also have the opportunity to customize many of them so they will be exactly want you want at the price you want. Through our digital ink printing process that creates a flat print, you often have the freedom to customize your invitations with many of our 48 different colors to make an invitation all of your own!

Watch a happy couple tie the knot in a Louisville White Castle on Valentine's Day, with the bride recounting memories of her parents' Valentine's Day dates. "My parents' first date was at White Castle, you know, that's where it all started," the bride says.

At least we have each other! Pretty in pink Lea Michele and pal Demi Lovato glam up to reunite as their network Fox reveals 'it has been a tough year'
When the going gets tough, the tough get stylish.
Well that was certainty the case from Fox's stable of stars, with Glee's Lea Michele setting the style bar fairly high as she arrived at the Fox Upfronts in New York on Monday.
As the stars of Fox tried to excite the media about their upcoming series' seasons, the network chief Kevin Reilly admitted 'This was not our best year'.
Star style: Glee's Lea Michele setting the style bar high as she arrived at the Fox Upfronts in New York on Monday
Despite the glum message that across the board even Fox's top shows were not getting the audience numbers they usually get, Lea was not letting the bad news get her down.
The 26-year-old was all smiles as she strode from her trailer to the red.
And, for good reason.
The star was looking fabulous and the event was giving her a chance to catch up with her singing buddy Demi Lovato - who's new album is released Tuesday.
Quick catch up: The event gave the Glee star a chance to catch up with her singing buddy Demi Lovato
Awkward pose, great dress! The brunette beauty looked toned, tanned and terrific in a bright pink figure hugging leather-look dress that featured images of tulips
Back to their old tricks! Demi was reunited with her fellow X Factor judge Simon Cowell
Goofing around: As per usual the pair hammed it up for the cameras on the red carpet
The friends conflicting filming schedules means they do not get many chances to hang out, so it was clear by the looks on their faces this was a long time coming.
The pair were joined by a host of Fox stars including almost entire cast of Glee, Ryan Seacrest, Cat Deeley, Zooey Deschanel and Kevin Bacon.
With so many famous faces Lea did her best to stand out and looked amazing doing so.
A nice ride: Demi was later ferried to the Upfront Presentation post-party at Wollman Rink in Central Park by a golf cart
Walk this way: A happy looking Lea was escorted in to the Beacon Theatre by co-star Darren Criss
Besties: Lea re-tweeted an Instagram picture of her with her Glee co-stars and Demi
Lady in black: Demi choose an unusual outfit which featured a black dress and a large belt with scarves hanging off it
All by herself: Noticeably missing was Lea's boyfriend and co-star, Cory Monteith, who had to be written out of the last season after voluntarily checking himself into to rehab for substance abuse issues
The brunette beauty looked toned, tanned and terrific in a bright pink figure hugging leather-look dress that featured images of tulips.
The star kept her accessories to a minimum carrying a tiny snakeskin clutch and ahse also wore silver pointed slingback heels.
The outfit showcased many of Lea's 14 tattoos, including her newest. The star's heels showed off what looks like a at home tattoo cover up.
Pattern people: Cat Deeley and Emily Deschanel wore patterned dresses to the event
Well suited: Ryan Seacrest looked sharp in a grey textured suit
Six degrees: Kevin Bacon was on hand to promote The Following
Green with envy: Minka Kelly wore a green patterned dress while funny lady Mindy Kaling added just a splash of the colour in a green sash
On her right foot the singer used to have the words 'Our city, our love' but seems the actress was not so keen on the sentiment anymore and has had the phrase tattooed over with butterflies.
Tattoos aside the 26-year-old looked perfect with her her ombre hair swept to one side in polished feminine curls.
Lea was clearly excited about her look tweeting her stylists thanking them.
Oh hey! Looking dapper Matthew Morrison made a quick entrance
Splash of colour: Jenna Ushkowitz made her best accessory her lips
Artie Abrams: Rivera also showed her Glee co-star Kevin McHale some love on Friday, texting him a hilarious birthday message
'Amazing work by the dream team for this look today @EsteeStanley @melaniemakeup @marktownsend1 #FoxUpfronts2013 :),' she tweeted.
The star also re-tweeted an Instagram picture of her with her Glee co-stars and Demi, who shunned colour in favour of a black dress with scarves hanging from it.
Of course noticeably missing was her boyfriend and co-star, Cory Monteith, who had to be written out of the last season after voluntarily checking himself into to rehab for substance abuse issues.
On the go: Adorkable Zooey Deschanel sprinted through Central Park on her way to the Fox event
Dressed for action! The New Girl starlet opted for a black sequin cardigan, full skirt, her signature black pantyhose, and dainty flats
Steady now: Vanessa Lachey had two helping hands escorting her to the post-party at Wollman Rink in Central Park
Corey has since finished his rehabilitation and last week the couple holidayed in Mexico, no doubt as a birthday present for the Canadian actor who turned 31 on Saturday.
On his birthday Lea wrote her boyfriend a gushing Tweet.
'A very happy birthday to the best guy I know Mr. @CoryMonteith :) Thanks for making me feel like the luckiest girl in the world every day.xo'
Talented trio: The Good Wife's Martha Plimpton, Brooklyn Nine-Nine funnyman Andy Samberg, and New Girl's Hannah Simone all looked primped and ready to present their shows
Cooking up a series: Masterchef castmates Gordon Ramsey, Joe Bastianich and Graham Elliot looked ready to feast on all their Fox admiration

Typically, when the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commissioners meet for a quarterly meeting, you can bet not much happens that affects Beaver County sportsmen. Oh, there are statewide regulations that do, but as far as specific waters and access, the southwest region is overlooked.

Poh Beng Durian Stall attracted my attention because it is located very close to the Penang International Airport. Google maps tells me it's less than three miles away, or a total of 9 minutes by car.

Right now i'm working on a webshop project in codeigniter. In the end there will be multiple webshops on subdomains, and a frontpage on the main domain.
It's supposed to be all dynamic so that the webshops get their own subdomains. The shop information is in the database. Lets say I have a mysql table which contains info like this:
- webshop: Bobs shop
- webshop_subdomain: bobsshop
And so on.
Now in a .htaccess file I want to make a rewrite rule so that bobsshop.mydomain.com will be rewritten to mydomain.com/bobsshop/ since i'm working in Codeigniter with controllers.
You should bear in mind that the index.php also has to be rewritten out and there should also be the possibility to make subpages like bobsshop.mydomain.com/contact/
I will make a php script which will check if the subdomain exists in the database and if it doesn't exist then the visitor will see a 404.
My DNS setup looks like this ATM:
- mydomain.com xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
- *.mydomain.com xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is my server IP.
I've really never worked with htaccess / mod_rewrite before. Can it be done? And are there anyone who can help me make this?
Sorry for my English. I hope you understand what I'm trying to do.
Thanks in advance

India's economic team must make up for lost time to revive growth
The finance ministry and RBI must get less conservative and improve co-ordination, notes Ajay Chhibber. The US Federal Reserve's decision not to raise interest rates signals that it is more concerned about deflation than it is about inflation. The Fed is trapped in its own "Chakravahyu" - it got into an extended quantitative easing (QE) but does not know how to get out of it. Japan and the EU are still pushing out more QE. Many emerging market (EM) central banks, including China's, have ...Rediff.com, 1 week ago

RATINGS: 1013 WEIGHTED AVG: 3.65 SEASONAL: Special IBU: 41 EST. CALORIES: 426 ABV: 14.2%
Samael is the prince of demons, the angel of death, accuser and destroyer. Filled with enmity towards man, he planted the vine, the forbidden tree of paradise. Behold his venom and vengeance, both sweet and tempting, enticing you, his spellbound victim, within his wings.
Samaels Ale is a super-caramelly, oak aged English-style strong ale. Perhaps the least hoppy (sacrilege here at Avery!!) beer weve brewed, to accentuate the malt. The oak is very apparent in this rich and high gravity ale, adding additional depth and complexity with a woody and cask-like nose and a pronounced vanilla flavor on the palate.
This potent ale is the second installment, along with The Beast, of our Demons of Ale Series.
Brewed with Rocky Mountain water, malted barley, turbinado sugar, hops, yeast, and American oak chips.

DH wants something "manly" to wear DD in (he finally saw some guy wearing his baby and talked to him about it...) so I want whats going to be practical for the two of us and that will be able to hold a baby or a heavier kid. Is there a way to get both benefits in one carrier? IDK anyways which carrier do you feel is the best?
I am more used to traditional carriers (wraps, slings, shalls, mei tais) so It would preferably be not complicated. Also I have a bad back.
Young born-again mama and loving wife to DH and SAHP to two crazy girls we and believe !

Donald Trump Reacts to Hillary Clinton's Impersonation of Him on 'SNL'
- 10:49 AM, Oct 05
Directed by Lasse Halstrom and based on the novel by best-selling author Nicholas Sparks, "Dear John" tells the story of John Tyree (Channing Tatum), a young soldier home on leave, and Savannah Curtis (Amanda Seyfried), the idealistic college student he falls in love with during her spring vacation. Over the next seven tumultuous years, the couple is separated by John's increasingly dangerous deployments. While meeting only sporadically, they stay in touch by sending a continuous stream of love letters overseas-correspondence that eventually triggers fateful consequences.

Why does it work?
Good readers have longer eye movements, shorter fixations (pauses during reading), and make fewer regressions (backtracking movements) than poor readers—a pattern which makes reading more efficient and more effective. Asym works by providing all readers visual cues within the text that subtly encourage the same eye movement patterns that good readers have learned to do naturally. These visual reminders help readers to pause and chunk phrases into units of meaning, as the brain would naturally pause during sentence comprehension.
This technique of emphasizing units of meaning with visual cues has been laboratory and field-tested by scientists in a variety of disciplines for over 60 years, and results have been published in dozens of peer-reviewed journal articles. These studies have demonstrated that manual and semi-automated application of this technique improves reading speed, comprehension, and enjoyment by up to 40%.
How does it work?
Asym is a software-based method that automatically applies this asymmetrical spacing to documents. It analyzes the organization of languages to determine how to best format word spaces to improve reading comprehension. Then it applies this analysis to modify the format of the spaces between words in real time to web or other documents.
Why do I need this?
Forty-three percent of adult Americans with low literacy, while able to read, have difficulty with moderately challenging literacy activities. All readers—but especially those struggling readers—will benefit and be able to read faster and understand more.
For publishers and advertisers, readers of your content and branding & marketing creatives will also remember and engage with your message more with Asym applied. As an example, Asym Spacing has been shown to increase display advertising click-through rates by 15-33%, and up to 66% for well-targeted creatives.
Our Technology
From the ground up, Asymmetrica has focused on building the most effective, flexible, and deliverable technology available. Every factor of the reading experience—the type of content we read, how we read, and even the specific person who's reading—is part of our language models.
We focus specifically on both content creators and consumers, creating a constant-feedback, results-based approach that adjusts our technology to you. We only benefit if you do.
Asym's formatting technology is extremely flexible, with multiple comprehensive data models and live adjustment factors that support any content. Our fast, highly reliable APIs support seamless processing for all text, creating more readable and engaging content. No special reader application or SDK is required.
Whether you want to increase engagement, click-throughs, and income on content you provide to your users, or whether you yourself want to spend less time reading and improve your understanding of what you read, Asymmetrica has products and solutions that will work for you.

The title here is a Kurdish pro-verb. Dear Aluf; From Turkeys annual economic growth you can surely see that they are slowly but surely turning into an economical and militarily super power in the region to control the water, energy flows, have a finger in every corner of middle east, and even beyond - in Africa and central Asia. In my opinion, what you Israelis have witnesses back in Davos and over last couple of weeks incidents, are just the beginning. I am not sure when you "good hearted" Israelis" will wake up, but some day, it may be a bit too late. Turkey will be more head ache, or not? Wait or see? Does Israel really want to take the chance when the question is about their very existence? You are about to loose your credibility in international communities, and diplomatically, you won't recover that easily.. Thank to your "allies"! Israels first two prime ministers may have spoken Turkish, so do I....

Radio Frequency Systems (RFS) will unveil at NAB2007 a new L-band panel antenna specifically built for DVB-H- and DAB-based transmission. RFS is offering the antenna as an alternative to the modified base station antennas typically employed for mobile TV and digital radio applications.
The new antenna is vertically polarized and supports applications across the entire broadcast L-Band, from 1452MHz to 1675MHz. It produces vertical standing wave ratio (VSWR) performance values of less than 1.1 across the bandwidth for DAB (1452MHz to 1492MHz). An optimized null fill functionality along with a special side-lobe suppression feature allows users to tailor the signal to the coverage area, minimizing reflections and interference. It is available in 65- or 90-degree horizontal beamwidth configurations, with multiple mounting arrangements.
