Angie Talks Double Dates with Depp
- Photo: Armando Gallo/Retna Ltd.1 of 13
By Michelle Lanz, with reporting by Juan M. Rotulo
There's a good chance Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp's new film "The Tourist" will win the box office tomorrow night. I mean, who wouldn't want to drool over two of the sexiest A-listers for 90 minutes or so? Wonderwall recently traveled all the way to Paris to chat with Angelina while she was promoting the film (rough life, right?). Click through to see what Angie has to say about working with Johnny Depp and double dates with their spouses.
We heard you were crucial for getting "The Tourist" made. Why did you want to do it so much and what did you think of Elise, your character?
"Brad was shooting 'Moneyball,' and there was suddenly a window, and I said, is there something that shoots in a great location and that's a character that I've never done before? And someone said, 'There's this project that shoots in Paris and Venice.' And I said, OK, let's do that one! It kind of started like that ... then Johnny was interested, and it was suddenly this kind of lovely project. But it was part of my desire to go to Venice."

Weekly rocket fuel for your social engine. Slurp it up…
Web Standards. Interoperability. Documentation. Tutorials. Unfortunately, the web development landscape has become exceedingly fragmented over the years and accessing these resources can be a struggle. However, the W3C has just announced the alpha release of the Web Platform Docs project. Seeking to provide a "comprehensive and authoritative source" for developers, this community-driven, wiki-styled site will help them more confidently build modern web applications with consistency across browsers and devices.
All materials will be freely available and anyone will be able to share their own expertise. Initial contributors to the project include major industry players such as Microsoft, Google, Apple, Adobe, Facebook, Mozilla, Opera, HP, and Nokia. Users will also have access to forums and a chat powered by a dedicated IRC channel. There is a clear need for such an ambitious project and expect this growing community to be extremely well-received.
RealPresence CloudAxis
Polycom is a true pioneer when it comes to video-communication hardware. However, after seeing tremendous value in videoconferencing solutions, it is now attempting to beef up its software game with the launch of the RealPresence CloudAxis Suite. Looking to extend its platform beyond strictly massive B2B users, it will bring enterprise-grade video collaboration to users of Skype, Facebook, GoogleTalk and other existing platforms.
For example, the browser-based teleconferencing package allows a user inside a corporate firewall to send video call invites out to their external contacts on Skype or Facebook. Participants then receive an instant message containing a link directing them to join the call. All audio and video is fully secured in the interface as well as the sharing of screens and documents. The strong interoperability effort is commendable; integration with Apple's FaceTime is coming soon. Certainly a step outside of the company's comfort zone, it will be interesting to see how well this resonates with its target customers when it officially launches in Q1 of next year.
Shelby Genius
The latest release from the team at Shelby.tv, this new mobile app has been referred to as the "Pandora for video". Users simply enter a search term and are presented with a continuous stream of related video content. Powered by the team's "Genius API", it currently aggregates relevant videos from YouTube, Vimeo, and Dailymotion. When paired with Apple TV, videos can be streamed using AirPlay creating a lean-back experience that consumers are already used to. The API and app will evolve over time based on usage to constantly improve the relevancy of the videos it serves up. Assuming the app can deliver on its value proposition, expect to see it gain some traction in the next few months.

SO I have been reading here and I am noticing there is a sub culture or group of "run every day" people.
I have never run "every" day before. I will go 3, and soimetimes 4 days in a row, but not every day.
The every day runner, sorta feels like a community of it's own. ie: barefoot runners are like that too.
I am interested, and I'd like to "run every day for a year". that would be cool. Not trainign for anything, just "being" a runner.
Do you run every day? Why?
Share your philosophy please.

You don't need to belong to any type of sub culture group to be an every day runner, any more than any animal that runs every day too.
I take one day off each month because my work, or some other obligation requires that I do, otherwise I would run every day.
I've never held this ambition. I only want to stay injury-free, enjoy my running and train to improve my performance. Running more is a big step toward enhanced performance but that doesn't mean you have to run every day. In four decades my longest streak is a modest 27 days. I maintain a 6 day schedule with Monday as my SRD. Couple of years ago I did 88 doubles which equaled / exceeded 365 workouts for the year but I operate best with a weekly 24 period to re-charge the batteries. YMMV. I have no desire to join the streakers club.

yeah, I think I am with you Moth. For years and years I have always followed "plans." Having been multi-sport for so long, I decided to give that up aws of last year.
this year I have stepped back to train with my girlfriend. she is new runner. She will do her first mary in January, I will do the goofy 39.9, (HM sat, FM sunday)
SO, I think I am having a runner's life crisis and trying to find my future.
I'm thinking I will parlay this new base into Ultra, and maybe try a 50K in the march to april area, then a 50 miler, and then the 100 miler in 2015.
4 days a week does it for me. If I go to 5 days a week, after a few weeks I don't feel like running, and what's the point of that?
oh that explains "streaking"
I just thought Moth was a lil, ya know- weird
As a masters runner we know we don't recover like we use to. I run strictly for competition and to improve performance. I believe rest is one of the keys to achieving that goal. At my healthiest I will run 6 days with taking the day off after my LR. Now I'm in my race season and phase 3 of my training which is running 4 times a week approx 24-27 miles a week.
Last year running only 3 times per week averaging 18 miles I broke 3 state records, I can pretty much guarantee you had I been running everyday I wouldn't have broke any.
That being said I do admire people that can run everyday and not get injured, I just don't think it lends itself to your top performance!

I can't say I've really thought of myself as part of a subculture; but I am one of those streakers. Like Harbourboy, it began just to see if I could run at least a mile every day for a year. I wish I had as good a reason as he does for why he began; I just wanted to see if I could do it. Like him, I also found myself caught in an airport and ran in an all but deserted terminal connector until I was sure I had done at least a mile. I've run with colds--in fairness, I've always done that; even in HS. I almost quit about 3 weeks prior to the year ending but around that time something kicked in (I was told this would happen) and it just became something I did (or do). I've learned a lot about what works for me during this period. The biggest thing I've learned is that a relaxed pace can be about the same as "active recovery."
As a rule, I don't bring it up unless asked. As one of our current posters says, we are an experiment of one. What seems to be working for me won't necessarily work for anyone else and for a host of reasons. At some point, this streak will end. But I'm not yet ready to kill it. That said, if (when) it occurs would I start another one? Maybe, maybe not. I'd likely reintroduce total rest days (or at least swim and/or bike only) days into my training say about one day every other week or so. I'll experiment and have fun doing it.
I like your plan of gradually moving to the challenge of longer races. I've gotten to 50k, but haven't made the move to 50 miles yet. I'm looking to forward to reading about your training and learning what works for you.

As a masters runner we know we don't recover like we use to.
um, yeah true dat sista yo! <--- see I'm not that old. haha OK- I am 45, but my youngest is 15, hence my hip rap and all
excellent post FF!
I'm not done!
FlyinFree, don't think I missed the IM reference! I did one HIM almost two years ago, inadequately prepared, and had the best/worst time of my life. I "owe" that distance and will take another crack at it someday. If I ever go "full crazy" it's good to know that I know someone else who has put in the training/commitment that I can get advice and stories from! As for the super long distances, I think that may be attempted first. Maybe start with one of those 12 hour races.
I guess I am getting old at 49 because I didn't know what the heck you were saying. I guess my son who just turned 11 hasn't gotten that hip either.
As a masters runner we know we don't recover like we use to. ...
I cringe when I see people still in their 40's using the "we recover slower" excuse.
I'm 58 and run about 8 times a week on average, but taking a day off here and there as needed. I run doubles several times a week. I don't believe in running every single day, come hell or high water, but I have run about 49 miles per week on average so far this year, at an average pace of 7:08 per mile. I like doing speed work so I have no problems with running fast intervals 3,4, 5 times a week, especially in the winter when I'm running indoors on a track. I feel like I still recover about as well as I did 25 years ago. If it takes me longer to get over a race or a hard training run now, it's a measure of hours, not days, it seems to me. I probably sleep an extra hour or even two per day/night after a very hard race or workout, counting naps.
Now when I first re-started running 6 years ago, I could only run about once every 3 days at first. It probably took a few months of training before I was able to run 4-5 days a week back then and 30 miles per week.
One thing that happens as we age is that our bodies get worse at absorbing nutrients. I adjust for that factor by taking a one-a day type vitamin plus a vitamin D supplement and a couple of other nutritional supplements such as Co-Q10 and B-100. In my opinion, a lot of what is interpreted as "we take longer to recover" is probably at least in part caused by nutritional short-comings caused or contributed to by age-related gut changes and long-term damage to the linings of intestines caused by common pain-relievers such as NSAID's (I don't take them and never have, except in cases of extreme pain).

Some of these posts are really funny. I'm 65, and I have been a runner my entire life, and I'm reading posts of those much younger than me who seem to think they need all this time to recover. While I can't speak for you guys, I have no problem using the other 20 plus hours of each day for my recovery.
It's also amusing to me that so many runners think that less is more, and that somehow they can run better each year and even win AG awards along the way with that type of mindset. Yet they're the same individuals who wonder why they never improve, why Kenyans win all the marathons, and how guys like me have been able to keep running after 100,000 (certified) miles.
Keep the posts going. I'm enjoying ths.
To begin, I am not a master... But... SInce I am 39.9 and turn 40 in about 5 weeks, I'll chime in on my first visit here. :-)
My philosophy on my personal efforts to run every day... There are a few.
#1 (And probably most important), it keeps me from taking a day off, then another day off, etc. Running 7 days a week almost guarantees a ramp-up in the mileage you do a week. (Because your 'days off' are filled with numbers other than 0 of course). My charts are there, I was a dedicated runner getting 20ish MPW pre-streak, now I am more in the range of 40ish MPW since I started the streak 4 months ago.
#2 I run no matter the weather. If the winds are 38 MPH and sleet is occurring, I come home from work and "get the run in". At least a 2 miler, no matter how tough it is.
#3 Because of #1 and #2, I am able to run farther and faster (because I am one of the luckier ones I guess in that my body has not broken down with the increased load). My 23:30ish 5k PR is now a 21:30ish 5K PR just 4 months into the plan.
#4. Because of #'s 1, 2 and 3, I feel so much better, so centered, and never have to feel guilty about gaffing off on a day when I could have run but didn't!
I think that is about it. --- For some, the streak might become an unproductive addiction or burden... For others it is very beneficial... For me it has been beneficial so far, and I will continue it if I can throughout 2013. I'll reevaluate at the end of 2013 and see if there is a need to continue or not, but even if I end it, will be great to say "I ran every day for a year straight, no matter the weather or what life dealt up to me that day..."
--I recommend trying it. If it doesn't work for a person, the solution is easy: End it!

true dat = It seems to be true to me too
Sista yo = we are related and I understand you
Tru dat sista yo = I am a runner too, and recovery sometimes seems harder to me too! hahaha
Arthur- you are 65 and have run your life. I am 45 and in a bit of a questioning where "I should go from here stage." Have you ever been there?
Cecil- your times and pace are gnarly! <--- that means awesome, super, outstanding. When did you start doing doubles and why?
Kris = Wow! that is philosophy, and meaningful. Nice to meet you
p.s. I do not necessarily think "master" is age.
edit to add- tonight is SRD- or whatever that acronym is- I shall run. Off to do it now.
Life long runner but it wasn't until 2005 I recorded my 1st 2000 mile year, and have every year since. It wasn't until I began running high mileage - 3300-3700 mpy - in my 50's, that my recover rate began to dramatically improve. Not sure what had a greater affect, the frequent doubles or overall mileage. After four years over 3000 mpy I slipped to 2800 last year. I'm behind that average at the moment but expect to start racking up higher mileage soon. I don't know if I have the desire or ability to handle the high mileage I was recording a few years ago as I've struggled with a few nagging injuries this year. 40,000+ miles on these legs and they appear to be holding up pretty well. Flexibility, not my recovery rate, is a weakness.
...Cecil- your times and pace are gnarly!... When did you start doing doubles and why?
I started doing doubles probably 4 years ago, when I got a membership at my employer's rec center. It's a huge rec center with an indoor 200 meter track, and I like doing speed work, plus I can park in the Rec center parking lot, do a short indoor workout before work, shower and walk to my office (1 mile) and then do a longer indoor workout after work. Easy way to do doubles. I've gone up to 17 miles on the indoor track in the winter, with a few breaks for water and such, but I prefer running random intervals repeats (200 - 1600 meters) when I'm running indoors. I add in a few long outdoor runs when the weather is decent in the winter and early spring, and I'm running over 80%+ age-graded times from 800 meters up to half-marathon distance. I haven't run a full yet. Hope to do that this coming July.
To Cecil and Arthur D
I'm sorry you cringe and find it amusing that masters runners recover slower.
Coach Brad Hudson says " joint mobility and muscle strength decline and due to aging factors have SLOWER RECOVERY and adaptation, and declining tissue elasticity"
article in Runners World by Susan Paul- Research shows that after age 40, tissue repair and replacement at the cellular level does not take place as quickly as it once did. Therefore, recovery simply takes longer;
DR. George Sheehan-author of the Competitive Runners Handbook and former world record in the mile for 50-54 age group, says "He then goes on to talk about allowing more time for an older body to develop, more Recovery from hard sessions, and increased emphasis on stretching to help combat reduced flexibility as we age"
Cecil-you do have a legitimate point with the lack of proper nutrients, however that still doesn't mean you recover like you did when you were 25 that just lessens the gap.
Arthur- 100,000 miles, impressive. While I do believe less can be beneficial I run shorter races. If I was training for a marathon than I would certainly want to get 6 days in with 45-60 a week. Now as far as people who run less but never improve I guess my 3K two weeks ago where I achieved All American, set a state record and a meet record at 49 beating my time by 32 seconds at 47 was an anomaly.
My long run day which is usually around 13 miles pretty much wipes me out for the day. When I ran in college, I would be playing basketball later that day!

FF and Harbourboy... please don't tell anyone here about how streaking is amazing, actually assist with recovery as the body acclimates, and how much it improves the experience of running in general. Never again is there that debate..."should I run today or not."
The only trouble is once you get a good chunk of days in a row under your belt, it really becomes hard to NOT run everyday...

I'm sure you want very hard to believe all those experts you mentioned, but like any expert, they all have their own opinions, and there are many others who wouldn't agree with them. Perhaps I should have read their books and articles too, but it's unlikely they would have changed my mind.
The only point I would agree with is the strictly scientific fact that you can loose muscle and bone mass with aging, however, with regard to recovery, that matter is well within your control. That's why I agree with the points made by "cecil", when he mentioned his use of supplements, and the things he avoids. You see that being a master has more to do than simply adding lots of miles and winning races. Proper rest and nutrition also play a critical role.
I run plenty of marathons, but it's very rare for me to be sore the next day. I'm sure that Susan Paul thinks I'm joking when I say that but I hardly care. Those experts at RW still think that several pounds of pasta is the ideal pre-race meal.
geez, coming in late to this debate, but it is an interesting one.
The theoretical questions are very difficult to answer since it is hard to do the actual experiments. Even the "experiment of one" statement we hear so often is misleading since most of us do not take the time to do a proper experiment on ourselves. Usually, it just means that we eventually land on a training regimen that seems to work for us, individually, regardless of what the experts say about what works. But it is a rare individual that performs these "experiments" in a rigorous fashion.
Fittest: Has a very fast and admirable time in recent track events (1500m and 3000m). Have you tried following a similar workout schedule, with all elements the same, but with no rest days?
Cecil: likes to run most days and run those days fast. Have you tried more rest days, and slower running on most days with focused speed workouts (a la Fittest) and then compared race times to what you get now?
I occasionally try to do those types of experiments, but even then I cannot control for other contingencies and don't have a large enough sample of races to draw meaningful conclusions from my races... so how are you people so sure of your opinions? I am somewhat of a training method agnostic, but like thinking about it.
On the running every day question, I used to think that I could not do this, without injury, as evidenced by injuries when I tried. As I have gradually built endurance, I now believe that I could safely run everyday, but I like doing other things... I can never be a streaker since I love to hike, ski, bike, etc. I do have a goal of exercising everyday, but fairly regularly my life intervenes, and I am not prepared to be one of those people that puts my own exercise obsession above other things in life... so I run most days, but try not to sweat it, if it does not work out.
great discussion
rcl is all sound a level headed
well, to report I did go out and throw down 5 last night, after I had already been on the road bike twice, for 11 miles each way to office,.
so I guess I did a triple 30 minutes x2 on bike, 48 minutes run.
maybe to run daily is totally doable, but not sure it's what I want to obsess on either. But I might.
If I do streak, I will talk to streakers about it.
I definitely sweat daily!
The hardest thing about streaking is making the commitment to do it. It is not too much to ask when you understand "the rules" (for those who care to one day register their streak).
To register a streak, the streak must be run for a year (which includes the leap day when it happens) and consists of running at least one consecutive (non-stop) mile each day.
Some streaker impost a higher minimum. I stick to the mile minimum and I have run several 1 mile days in my 489... but with that said, my 489 day average is 9.7 miles per day. If you ran 365/6 miles per year you would be a streaker.
How hard or how easy you making running daily is a personal decision. For me to average 9.7 per day, I train most days slow and run one-two hard days per week (usual a race).
When 1 mile is the minimum to count, I see no reason to not run. How hard is it really to run 10 minutes, or 12 minutes, or 8 minutes... or however long it takes to get the mile done.
If I am going to be ambulatory at all during the day, I am likely to cover at least one mile on my feet, so if I can walk about for over 1 mile at work and in life, I can surely find a few minutes to get my mile run. In most cases, my minimum is 3 miles unless I have run an ultra that is over 50 miles and my body is hurting. Then I'll do my one mile only. Once I strained my foot and did 1 miler for a few days in a row until it got better.
What has happened to me since streaking is my recovery time has decreased significantly, my injury rate has decreased as well and my race times have reached life-time PRs again. I am 37 which is not a Masters but I am no spring chicken either. I finally broke 20 in the 5k, which I did not expect to happen since I should be slowing down. I also ran a 50 miler in 7:41 which was unexpected but makes sense since streaking has me on my feet more than ever.
wow Meka!
hmmm, out of curioisyt, how did ya'll decide to draw the line and set a date?
Run a marathon every month, run a race every month, run everyday. However or whatever it takes to stay motivated. It's all good.
ok Meka- how do I register a streak?
What a great discussion. Running daily and keeping a running streak going is just a normal part of my daily routine and my lifestyle. Sometimes it is a bit of an obsession and a compulsion. Back about 30 years ago I had not run yet that day, it was getting close to midnight. I was about six hours into an eight hour drive. I pulled over along side the road in a well lit area and ran for ten minutes just to keep the streak going. These days An early, early morning mile-two mile run will satisfy my need to hit the road to keep a streak going if I know it will be difficult to get in a run because of other obligations.
Running more miles at 57 then I ever was 100+ per week many doubles and no days off. Sure some days are just slower but running and moving more yes MORE as we age is for ME better. The big miles have panned out as I just again ran a sun 19 5k ... 18:48 at 56 YO a month ago. Oh had put in 14 miles the day before the race. Need rest?? That is what sleep is the night after you run. When you wake up it is a new day. rest?? Hummm...
Run......run everyday......run again and then when you find yourself thinking you need time off.......run twice.
Well that is for me anyway.....don't really care what other runners think when it comes to time off and streaks......it is your running so do it the way you want...some runners are not strong enough to run days at a time let alone years though.
As the proud owner of 86,300 plus lifetime miles since age 19......January 1st, 1980 to now.......twenty 3,000-3,700 mile years from age 31-52.....two 4,000 plus years at age 47 and 48 and a load of other years in the thousands I will say it again run some more:
May 22nd will complete my 6th streak.....I have not bothered to register the last two on the streak site yet.....the other 4 are on there though....I usually wait until I am at 3 or 4 years to register.
09/05/82 - 02/28/84….....…542 days…........4,297.0 miles…........7.92 av.
08/03/90 - 03/27/93….....…968 days…........8,345.8 miles…........8.62 av.
04/03/93 - 11/21/01…......3,155 days….........7,221.8 miles….......8.62 av.
05/05/02 - 06/10/10…......2,959 days….......29,075.7 miles.…......9.82 av.
06/18/10 - 04/29/12….........682 days….........6,139.9 miles…........9.00 av.
05/23/12 - 05/01/13............344 days..............2,821.0 miles............8.20 av.
And no the streak running did not harm my race times.......during the longest streak from '93 - '01 I ran 8 sub3 marathons and a 3:01 to boot.
PRs: 5K-16:52 (22) 10K-34:46 (23) 1/2-1:15:24 (35) Mar-2:54:08 (37) 3:21:56 (47) 8 sub3's from 33-39.
Interesting thread! I'm a relatively new runner, starting from the couch back in the fall of 2009. I ran 3-4 x per week for the first couple years, until struggling through my first marathon in the fall of 2011. After that, I decided to start 'base-building', following some reading I'd done (Hadd), and ended up in the habit of running 6-8 miles most every morning, with a longer run on the weekend. That's since become pretty much a habit, with average weeks coming in around 50 miles, peaking at 75+ when marathon training. I don't bother with recording consecutive days running as that's not my goal or motivation. There are occasional non-running days, perhaps once every two weeks or so, as life does get in the way at times. I started running the occasional double as well, as I've found it's an easy way to bump up the weekly mileage without killing the legs.
I've found simply running more has helped me improve significantly as a runner. My race times have improved, and my race experiences have gone from staggering across the finish to kicking it over the mats, and recovering quickly. For anyone looking to improve, mileage is the first suggestion I'd come up with for most newish runners like me. Get in the habit of going out every day, rain or shine. After a couple months of that, you'll feel weird on a day you don't run!
Another thing that can help with concerns about falling behind in running miles is to front load the week. I am shooting for 35 mile this week, which is an increase that I am worried about completing, so I did 25 in the first three days, now I only have 10 left. I have no interest whatsoever in making a commitment to run everyday, but with lots of responsibilities, some that come up at inopportune times, front loading has been helpful.
haha I thought this was a joke Meka! hahahaha ya know- run every day .com. BUT it's for real. Then your avie change, made it even funnier.
I've got 3 days since we started talking about this. But, only one of those days was a SRD.
wow tww! nice!
I think I am in. heck, what else am gunna do!
Whoops....I just notice I left a 2 off that 3,155 day streak....should be 27,221.8 miles.
The thing about running streaks for me is that I have never tried to do them.......since I started running in 1980 my intent has always been to run every day.....I never wake up and wonder if I will run.....it is automatic...and at 52 I see no reason to change that attitude....some years I have kept my daily averge at 8.2 (3,000 miles minimum)....some years.....my best stretch was the 5 years from 2004 through 2008 when my daily averge did not fall below 10 miles.....with 2007 and 2008 at 11.4 and 11.0 a day.

Welcome to Chaparral Elementary! We are proud of our students and staff and the accomplishments they make each year. Chaparral Elementary is now on a modified track. What that means is that instead of five different tracks, we will be having a single track for the entire school. Every student will start school on August 7, 2012. All students will have a track break in November and March with the school year ending on June 7, 2013.
Our accomplishments have been great this year as we have implemented grade level intervention plans that are allowing us to reach all learners at all levels. As we continue to set goals at each grade level, our students are doing their best to achieve these goals and continue to succeed in their testing and assessments. Through hard work from our teachers, parents, and students, we will reach our goals and continue to move forward.
All of our grade levels have different unique and special projects. A couple of examples include our first grade classes camp toward the end of the year. At this time they will focus on the theme of camping and being in the wilderness while focusing on reading, math, science, and social studies. Our third grade does a city project in which every third grader builds a portion of a city. It is then put together in the cafeteria and their work is displayed for two days. The curricular areas of reading, math social studies, science, and art are all focused on during this project.

Just right, but not snow pants

These are like jeans, but warmer and better looking - perfect for cold weather where you are going outside then inside a lot. Don't expect them to work when walking through snow.
Great Pants!
- Gender:Male
- Familiarity:I've used it several times
I have worn these pants in the cold Ohio weather and have got to say they do a great job of keeping you warm. They are not a loose fitting pant, they do hug you pelvis and putting larger items in the pocket is not smart as it "prints" the item in your pocket.
All-in-all, I plan on buying another pair of these pants in another color. The feel is great and they do keep you warm.

Modulators of intracellular glycosylation limit microtubule-associated protein tau phosphorylation in vivo.
Vocadlo, D. - - 2010
Pathological hyperphosphorylation of the microtubule-associated protein tau is characteristic of Alzheimer disease (AD) and the tauopathies. Recently, it has emerged that tau is also modified with 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-_-D-glucopyranose residues O-linked (O-GlcNAc) to serine and threonine residues. This O-GlcNAc modification of nucleocytoplasmic proteins is a common post-translational modification found in higher eukaryotes. ...

STIM1-mediated store-operated calcium entry uses a protein unfolding/oligomerization-coupled mechanism.
Stathopulos, P.B. - - 2010
Stromal interaction molecule-1 (STIM1) activates storeoperated [Ca.sup.2+] entry (SOCE) in response to diminished luminal [Ca.sup.2+] levels. We have recently determined the solution structure of the [Ca.sup.2+]-sensing region of STIM1, consisting of the EF-hand and sterile a motif (SAM) domains (EF-SAM) (Stathopulos et al. Cell 2008; 135: 110-122). The canonical EF-hand ...

Feed Cheney started in February 2010 and has the vision to increase access to healthy foods for low income Cheney residents. It was started by Natalie Tauzin from the Spokane Regional Health District with assistance from United Church of Christ and Women and Children's Free Restaurant. One of Feed Cheney's goals is to provide a healthy, hot meal once a month to those in need. This happens on the last Monday of every month at the Wren Pierson Building. They also provide free groceries at the meal to those in need, including a variety of fresh and healthy foods to get families through the month.
In the fall of 2013, the Eagle Volunteers partnership joined the Feed Cheney to provide an additional grocery distribution to the Cheney community. During the 2nd Monday of every month (except for when it falls on federal holidays) in Wren Pierson Community Center's Senior Room, a grocery distribution is held from 5-6pm. Anyone in the community (including students, staff, and faculty) can access these distributions. There are no screening processes, just a sign-in sheet that requires first name and one way to contact them in the event of a food recall.

- Product Description
In February 2006, the City of Amsterdam put up ?No Toking? signs in De Baarsjes, one of the city?s poorer neighbourhoods. The idea was to discourage youths from loitering and getting high in the street where they would undoubtedly cause untold amounts of trouble and mayhem. The signs didn?t last very long.
In fact, so many went missing (the first and second ones going the very same evening they were put up), that the city?s authorities soon realised they had stumbled upon gold-dust and actually began selling them to tourists and people who had seen the No Toking sign on the net. Now they are available in these large and small size stickers and make a fun and interesting decoration for any bedroom or lounge, guitar amp, car, lunchbox or anything else you might like to stick them on.
The 'No Toking' sign, originally marked ?Blowverbod? in Amsterdam, features a lit joint in a red circle with a stream of smoke marked by trailing cannabis leaves.

As of this moment, the A in ACL stands for anterior. I propose we change it to Arizona.
Arizona defensive lineman Willie Mobley has suffered a torn ACL while playing basketball in the student rec center and will have to undergo surgery on it. Arizona confirmed the injury on Monday. Mobley is the fourth Wildcat to tear an ACL this spring, joining starting safety Adam Hall, starting linebacker Jake Fischer and reserve running back Greg Nwoko. Throw in a couple of torn ACLs over at rival Arizona State, and it suddenly seems that the dry heat of Arizona is murder on knee ligaments.
If there is any silver lining in this for Arizona it's that Mobley was not expected to be a starter for the Wildcats this season, so at least Mike Stoops' defense isn't down three starters. Mobley did play in 10 games last season, though, racking up 7 tackles, 1.5 for a loss and half a sack. He was projected to backup Justin Washington this year.
Still, this does take away depth on the defensive line, and if I were Mike Stoops right now, I'd probably institute a rule mandating all my players wear knee braces at all times. Also, no more basketball at the rec center.

Last year, I was a little underwhelmed with BlogHer. I didn't learn as much as I thought I should. Didn't connect with as many people as I hoped I would. Didn't come home as transformed as I wished I could.
Not so this year.
This year? I had fun. I learned and connected. Laughed and cried. Hugged and got hugged. Socialized and…danced? Yes, Internet. I danced. In public. And not polite little shuffling, either. Nope, full on spastic dancing. I'd blame the alcohol, but I think it had more to do with the company.
Because the women at BlogHer? Were (and are) amazing. I met good friends I'd been waiting to see. Made lots of new ones. Caught a ride from the airport with one bloggy crush. Chatted up another particularly non-scary blogging superstar at a party. Even shook hands with CecilyK (a woman who both inspires and frightens me).
One session brought on a mini nervous breakdown. Others bored me to tears. A speech by Jess Weiner motivated me to take on the world. The closing keynote made me want to tear it down.
But most importantly? The weekend left me profoundly grateful for the community I've become part of and spinning a little giddily, trying to process it all.
Will I go next year? I have no freaking clue. But man am I glad I got to go to this one.
I'll probably write one more post about the whole mess before I'm through. And then we can move on, I promise. But you know what? After the amount of money I threw down? I better be able to mine more than one post out of it!

Nick waited until they were alone. "So, when were you going to tell me that you stabbed me in the back?" he asked Reece, his voice sharp. "You're marrying Zac?"
Reece sighed, and made sure they were alone even though Zac and Josh had just left to get dinner.
"I'm not marrying Zac." Reece whispered.
"I think that ring says otherwise." Nick snapped.
"Look, I knew you weren't going to be back for a long time Nick. And you broke her heart. She started getting really attached to this guy, he was a complete asshole. And after he hit her, I had to do something Nick. I love Zac, but not this way. But I couldn't see her be with that sonofabitch and end up getting raped or killed.
So I invited her over, and I kissed her. She clung fast, she broke up with that asshole for me. And I wasn't going to go as far as proposing, but Match, the jerk, started coming back around. She started talking about how she didn't feel wanted by me, she started talking about maybe leaving and going back to Match, so I proposed.
I did it for both of you. You have to fix this Nick. You have to get back into her good graces and talk her out of marrying me and being with you. I'll do whatever you need me to do. But if she won't take you back, I will marry her. I won't let her end up with that Match guy. But we have to try. She's not over you."
"That's why you agreed to wait until you were married wasn't it?" Nick asked.
Reece sighed, nodded. "I'm not going to take what's yours Nick. She's my friend. I'll be her husband, because I love her. But I don't feel that way about her, not really. She's family, you know."
"I know." Nick murmured. "I'm sorry. I kind of jumped to conclusions."
"No, it's okay. I would have done the same thing. Get her back Nick."
He nodded. "You're a good friend, Reece."
"Josh wants it too. He doesn't want her to get married but he'd rather her marry me then go back to Match and keep letting that sonofabitch abuse her. He's not as protective over Zac as much now that she's grown up so much, and since Natalie came into his life. I know he's told you about her."
Nick nodded. "She's not easy to forget about either. The way he talks about her, it's easy to tell her loves her. He talks about her the way he used to talk about Zac."
"The only problem is that now she's really protective over Zac. She looks at Zac like a daughter and Zac won't admit it but she hates her. I don't think it's that Zac is jealous or something, I think it has more to do that she keeps imposing herself on Zac and won't give her any breathing room. She's trying too hard to be Zac's friend and mother."
Nick sighed. "Poor Zac. God, I didn't realize that I broke her heart."
"Yep." Reece muttered. "Neither did I, at first. I just thought she was upset, when I started seeing her again. But after a few days I realized she was heart broken. Then Match came along and you know the rest."
"I'm going to get her back." Nick decided. "I tried to get over her but I couldn't. I have to get Zac back, no matter what it takes."

I want to take my eyes out of their sockets
And put them in my pockets
So I don't have to see
The pain that you're dealing me.
I want to stand on a cliff's edge
With my toes hanging slightly over the ledge
Because that feeling reminds me
Of how unsure your love is for me.
I want to sew my mouth shut
So I can't cry out in pain but
Then you may not ever know
Because my hurt and sorrow I never show.
I want to go bungee jumping with out the bungee .
I am your target in your game of archery.
Make sure you hit me in the right spot
So I can die quickly of this heartache I've got.
I want all these things and more
Because its you I can't help but adore!
I want to be held and loved!
Not pushed aside and shoved.
You are my drug of choice
Poison on my lips that takes away my voice
I let you use me and lie to me
And all for those words I want to hear so badly.
"I love you"

FARMINGTON — After 42 years in the propane business, Jake Cluff has learned one important lesson that structures how he and his business partner, Kent Misemer, run Arrowhead Propane.
"Propane's the same if you buy it from me or anyone else," Cluff said.
So when Cluff and Misemer opened Arrowhead Propane in Farmington they decided to focus on three things: safety, customer service and competitive prices.
"Every one of my cards has my cell phone number on it," Cluff said.
He said when people call about propane, they want to get it at a convenient time and in a convenient way. That's one advantage Arrowhead Propane has as a locally owned company, Cluff said.
"We can be more responsive to their needs as a small company," he said.
In Farmington, Cluff and Misemer said flexibility is crucial. Customers are able to spread out payments and can pay using cash, check or credit. The drivers have apps on their cellphones that allow them to scan credit cards for payment.
"I like the fact that it's an important part of the community," Cluff said.
He said propane is especially important in rural areas. Like his customers, Cluff, who lives outside of Turley, depends on propane.
Cluff started working in the industry when his father, who ran a propane company, hired him. Since then, he has worked for propane companies of various sizes and has served on several national propane boards. In 2002, he moved to Farmington and began working at propane companies in the area.
He and Misemer met while working together more than 20 years ago. For years, they discussed opening a propane business together.
"We saw an opportunity to develop a company that would meet the needs of our customers," Misemer said.
Cluff said that certain aspects of his previous job for a Farmington branch of a larger propane company made him unhappy and he wanted a change.
For the past year, he and Misemer have been working on starting their company. This involved buying equipment, such as tanks and trucks, and constructing the building, which located at 3 Road 5859, along U.S. Highway 64 southeast of Browning Parkway.
In June, Arrowhead Propane sold its first propane. Since then, the company has grown to more than 200 customers and eight employees.
Most of the customers are residential, new construction and mobile homes. The company has more than 250 tanks in stock and 60,000 gallons of propane in storage at the property.
As they got close to opening, Cluff and Misemer went door-to-door, knocking and leaving fliers.
"We're getting a tremendous response just from word of mouth," Misemer said.
Also helpful in attracting customers has been the 30,000-gallon tank with the company's name, phone number and logo, which is clearly visible along U.S. Highway 64.
"I couldn't be happier with what's happened with us so far," Cluff said.
Cluff and Misemer have also educated some customers. For instance, some people have a misconception that they can't switch service providers. Cluff said anyone has the right to switch providers. When people do switch, Misemer said, it is almost always due to price or customer service.
Mesimer said in addition to having a competitive price and focusing on customer service, the company also focuses on safety.
He said the company is taking a potentially dangerous product into homes with families and children. Because of this, if the team discovers a safety problem, they won't leave until it's fixed.
"We've found people who had no idea they had a propane leak," Cluff said.
Misemer said that he and Cluff aim to build the best propane company they can and to get loyal customers and employees who want to work for them.
"We've been able to attract an incredible amount of talent," Cluff said.
Between Misemer, Cluff and their manager, Mike Helms, they have 118 years combined experience in propane.
"My wife makes fun of me," Cluff said. "She says I've been in the business of passing gas for 40 years."

Trusting Yourself
What's Your Boggle?
Mellow greetings sir or miss. The title is what it boils down to for this, you have to figure out what you need help with. If you got something in mind already, good for you, if not take a look at this part and see if anything comes to mind. This resource is going to go over areas I've either personally experienced or have a good amount knowledge with. Suffering from the problem myself, the first section will deal with issues of the mind blocking your efforts in psionics. The second section deals with progressing with psionics: you're somewhere and for some reason you're not getting any farther. The third section deals with those oh so fun anomalies life can throw your way: born with altered energy production (or worrying about being like that), personality issues, and whatever incidents life can throw your way.
MONK: Put your hand in the flame.
DANIEL: What?
MONK: Place your hand in the flame.
DANIEL hesitates, then holds his hand over the flame, before pulling back in pain.
DANIEL: Ah! Why did you tell me to do that?
MONK: Why did you do it?
DANIEL: Because you told me to.
MONK: Because you trusted me.
DANIEL: Yes.
MONK: Within you is the capacity for trust. Trust OMA DESALA. Do not believe you can light the candle, believe she can light the candle.
Now for those of you (probably most) that are confused, that's part of a Stargate episode, but forget that and look at the point of it. Replace OMA DESALA with yourself and omit the next line. For a good bit of people including myself, there is more than enough ability there, there just isn't self confidence. You may have had a situation not too different when someone told you to do something a certain way, you did it, and WOH!, it worked incredibly well. Then later it doesn't work as much. The likely reason for this is you trust that person more than you do yourself, and since they said it would work right a certain way, you believe it will work and you can do it now. You have to look at this and figure out how to skip the middle man and just believe you can do it.
Your Mind and You
The first thing you have to realize is that for many people, your unconscious self is going to try and Block you from doing anything "concrete" in psionics, you might be able to do stuff like psiballs, shielding, etc, but you find yourself not able to do stuff like Healing or Psychokinesis that you can you can see and instantly say: that was psionics, it worked, and I did it. That's not uncommon, your subconscious is going to take everything it knows about the world, and say "you can't do that." Don't find it so hard to believe, you were probably thinking it the first time you heard about the "concrete" skill you're having trouble with, you were almost certainly thinking it when you were unsuccessful, and somewhere in your head you might even be thinking it right now. It is not easy to handle, but by reading this you've already got the first part of the battle down. You know what you're fighting against, what you have to direct your focus to change, for a while that alone can improve things but it might not solve everything forever. That's what the next couple parts of this section, here are gathered several methods for trying to defeat that unconscious part of yourself once and for all and win it to your side.
Exercise #1: Bash it to Death with Reason
This is the most common method, it will work for some people, but not for all. It is still worth a try however. The method itself is self explanatory, go through every doubt you have one by one and reason it out until you can get past it, if you can do this well enough it should at least make some kind of dent in your problem that is if it is because of a rationally based doubt, reason can beat out reason but reason vs lack of reason can be a different story.
You should work on this method for at least 3 days before proceeding.
And that's where affirmations come in. Affirmations are another "bash it into submission" technique, but unlike the last, this one can fight a block that is not rational. Just repeat a single phrase to boost your confidence over and over again. Some tips: don't use negatives, only positive statements, make all conditions immediate not "I will be able to do it", and don't sweat if it doesn't work 100% (like rolling a dice for micro-tk or something similar), if you stop your thought train to get angry or frustrated its going to get you back to doubting again, and that will be taking steps backwards when you're trying to walk forwards. Now for just some examples to illustrate:
I can do telekinesis I can do healing I can grow to 6 feet tall
I can do telekinesis I can do healing I can grow to 6 feet tall
I can do telekinesis I can do healing I can grow to 6 feet tall (worth a try tongue.gif )
(credit: I did pull on some of this from a forum discussion on psipog: post starter Kushimaster )
Self Affirmations Exercise
Step #1: Write the following statement on a piece of paper before practice:
"I am doing (ability or things you are having trouble with here) right now."
Step #2: View the statement you have written and recite it clearly a few times. Perhaps you may also wish to meditate on the statement.
Step#3: Proceed practice like usual.
You should work on this method for at least 3 days before proceeding.
This is one technique of my own invention. Go back to the first part of this section about being able to believe when you had a middleman that you trusted. Well sometimes you can make yourself the middle man too. Think things like "if I do this in this particular way it will work", like again with the dice rolling for micro-tk (can you guess how I practice yet?), get yourself to think it will work if you roll the dice a certain way, or hit the dice in the air, or some other clever little action. If it works when you do that you got yourself baited and you can run off that for a little. Now unfortunately if you keep doing this you're not solving anything and it will almost certainly fail given enough time. The way to use this as an actual fix is to look at it after a time and notice that you could do it.
You should work on this method for at least 1 day before proceeding.
The Goods and Bads of Planning
Planning or expectation can be a good or bad thing depending on the way you use it. It follows a general rule, when you think you shall will well you may find that you will do well, but more likely when you think you shall do poorly you will do badly, maybe even very badly. So try not to think you shall do badly as that will sabotage your efforts.
Coincidental Reinforcement
I've personally had a lot of issues with this one. Coincidental Reinforcement is what I call when randomly a certain event in your practice comes up a couple times, there is a chance if you're frustrated or quick to label things that you will see this not just as random activity, but some constant action. By doing so you will make it real so to speak. Your mind will try to fulfill your expectations (think the Matrix – the mind makes it real). This can be both a plague in general energy use (I'll make mention of that later) and micro tk (for me personally I've gotten a bit of a quirky number that I got into believing it would randomly come up a lot whenever it was not what I wanted. It really throws off results).
Pulling it Together
Hopefully though one of these techniques you'll be able to finally silence that annoying voice in your head, no not the one that tells you to do bad things to that guy you don't like 😛 , the one that tries to tell you that you can't do that one skill for whatever reason. Remember also the lessons of coincidental reinforcement and expectations, and how these two things can seriously hurt your efforts. If this doesn't work, don't give up, theres enough people with this problem that someone will eventually think up something that will work, or maybe you'll just get lucky one time, or see someone else do it–that will usually melt the problem for you if you're lucky enough to meet another psion in person.

Finally there is a business thriving in 140 William St, a place that seems to be jinxed except for a few public places.
The designers of Jamie's Italian deserve a huge praise for creating a space that is very modern but with lots of traditional and rustic elements. Jamie's restaurant is large place with different seating spaces, bar and restaurant combined but conveniently separated, and a few corners reserved for the waiters and pasta-making. The layout and decoration are an harmonious eclectic mixture of street art (a warm diptych by Creepy is covering part of the bottom end wall), wild west saloon, rustic trattoria, trendy osteria, and refurbished industrial space. Ambitious, and even pretentious in a way, but the whole ensemble works well and has aesthetic harmony.
Jamie's Italian does a great job at making things that are a hassle elsewhere very easy - from ordering, to paying, to keeping you happy while you wait for your food.
- They have good quality cutlery and fabric napkins. That always makes me happy because too many restaurants in Perth, even those that call themselves posh, use paper napkins and/or average cutlery.
- They provide a complimentary basket of Italian breads with olive oil and balsamic vinegar while you wait. The selection is excellent, really great, and almost an entree per se. Some of the guys ask you if you want, some others do not, so if you want it and aren't offered, use your pretty lips to request it.
- They make their pasta fresh in the premises daily.
- They have different sizes for the pasta dishes, as entree or as a main, which comes very handy depending on the time of the day, or if you want a dessert or not.
- They have specials of the day (savoury), which are great if you are a regular.
- They seem to use Italian Parmesan, which they offer grated to you with some of the pastas. Others have it already on.
- They have mobile EFPTOS machines, so they come to your table and you pay without having to cue or move anything that are not your precious fingers.
- Easy no-fuss online booking system. Go online, provide your email and mobile, select a time slot, add you preferences regarding anything, push the button, and you are done. You will receive an email confirming your booking and a SMS two days before your visit, asking you to re-confirm. You can also cancel by using return email or sms.
Jamies Italian, despite the name is not all Italian. There is a mix of Italian dishes (both savoury and sweet) mixed with tapas style antipasti and planks, and very colourful fresh fruity salads. Jamie's is, above all, a place of modern fusion food inspired by Italian cuisine. The menu is quite extensive thanks to the combination of a well-round selection of antipasti, pasta, dish and meat dishes, salads, desserts, Italian wines and coffee.
The antipasti are very good, the arancini being the ones that I liked the least. The planks are great, with a mix of textures, colours and flavours that are very pleasant and a great degustation experience. The side salads are very good, very fresh, good sized, and good looking; the stand out, to me, is the Apple Slaw Salad, which is is truly fantastic, while the Winter Salad is just blah.
The pasta dishes, supposedly the star of the restaurant, have been a great disappointment. The Sausage Pappardelle were hard, not al dente. If they had been al dente, it would have been possible rolling them around the fork to eat them the Italian way. Al dente, for Italians means firm, slightly underdone, not underdone. Never hard. It is soft outside with a bit hardness inside when your teeth go through it. The taste was OK. Something I could cook at home easily with my poor culinary skills.
The Honeycomb cannelloni were overcooked, not al dente, and the whole thing a tiny service of a mashy undistinguishable thing that did not charm me at all.
On the contrary, I found the Wild Mushrooms Ravioli very good in flavour, perfectly cooked, still, not many ravioli under the sauce and nothing really wow.
Jamie's Desserts are great. They truly are more British than Italian, or a mix of both, but they are always terrific and decently sized. Unlike most places in Perth, Jamie's sweets are not overly sugary, so you can enjoy the flavours much more.
The Tiramisu was moist, good sized, with the right amount of everything. Perfect.
The Seasonal Poached Fruit with ice-cream and mint were delicious despite being cold. For whatever reason, I expected the dish to be warm or warmed a bit. Still, it as a fantastic mix of textures and seasonal fruit, very light, very healthy and flavoursome.
The Sour Cherry Bakewell is lovely - a moist flavoursome cake with a very light but delectable orange sour cream and mint on top. Not much cherry in it, but the ensemble was filling and has great clean distinct flavours.
The Chocolate & Vinsanto Pot was fantastic if you are a dark chocolate nerd. The mix of the sweet ice-cream and cream topping a rich dark chocolate mouse, and the freshly crunchy biscotti is great. Very filling, despite the size.
The one I enjoyed the least were the selection of ice-creams. They were just OK.
Jamie's Italian use Fiori beans for their coffee, which are among my favourite beans. They produce a flat white with the strength I like it, and that is always a big tick on my list of important ticks, while the long macchiato is a bit too strong even for me. This means that the coffee could be a bit too strong for you if you are into smooth coffees. The coffee lacks in creaminess and is not aesthetically finished at times, but it is perfectly prepared others.
The staff have always been wonderful. Very friendly, chatty and accommodating about everything, and very attentive to you and your personal needs. They do their best to get you a good place, to comment on anything that might bother you, to ask you if everything is OK. They run non stop any time you visit, and they well deserve the salary they earn. Having said this, the service can be lacking at times due to the lack of enough staff to attend customers or the inability of the cooks to provide the many meals requested at once. My criticism to the service is based on the fact that the restaurant doesn't have enough staff - to me.
We are so used to be ripped off on a daily basis everywhere we go in Perth, that Jamie's Italian, in comparison, is really cheap. You can have three dishes and a coffee for about 35 bucks. A dream in most restaurants in Perth. Prices are good, but, hey, they could be cheaper especially when non imported ingredients are used. Most things prepared are seasonal, so seasonal means very cheap produce at the market.
- Jamie's pasta are average, mostly not al dente, and their pappardelle aren't what Italians call standard pappardelle. Moreover, many of these dishes have too much sauce and little meat in them.
- The eating space is tiny. Eating at the solo-eaters counter can be quite uncomfortable and it doesn't allow you much movement with your hands especially if more than a plate is brought at the same time. In the same way, some of the tables for two are tiny-winy, with barely room for anything than a kiss :D.
- Jamie's is a very noisy place, even during the quietest times of the day. If you are looking for a cosy quiet place, this is not your place. Sometimes you have to speak loud to the waiter/tress because it is difficult to hear anything. However, it varies from one place to another in the restaurant. The only solution I come with is to turn down the mainhein in your head, and find a zen space between your two ears, or just listen to the conversation of the table beside...
- Their online booking system is limited regarding hours available. Some time- slots are not displayed or available for booking online, and you cannot book, say, two weeks in advance. Moreover, the guys at the restaurant do not deal with bookings at all. So they are making things difficult unnecessarily.
- Sometimes, you have to wait about 10 minutes for the guy to come and take your order, despite the guy knowing that you are there and wanting to come earlier. Sometimes you have to wait 25 minutes to get what you ordered, even if you are alone and just ordered the antipasti.
> It would be great if Jamie's thought a bit more about the efficiency of their service system and less about cashing in with the least effort, especially during peak hours, which, at the moment, are all opening hours due to the hype surrounding the place. Hiring more people would be an act of kindness towards both the current staff and customers who would get a prompter more relaxed and faster service.
> More individual tables could be easily scattered around the place.
> Cook pasta al dente as Italians do. Otherwise is not... pasta al dente!
> Improve the presentation of the Tiramisu; if you put something brown on a brown plate is never going to be appealing to the eye. The Vinsanto Pot would need of a cup with a broader circumference on top.
> The staff should ask customers if they want sugar, sweetener or nothing with their coffee.
Despite the hype, Jamie's Italian is more a posh fast food place or eatery than a proper restaurant. However, it is a a lovely place to drop by on weekdays to have decent simple meals, good portions at good prices. There is nothing to rave about the food because, despite being lovely, it is never remarkable or wow. Still, Jamie's is one of those places that invites you to return for the right reasons, and one would like the hype to wane to have a more relaxed ambience and being able to walk through their doors without reservation or cues. Jamie's is always a vibrant place to visit, but also very hectic and extremely noisy.
Don't cue for Jamie's, book online or by phone. Cueing for a restaurant that is not uber-posh and uber-delicious is not only a waste of time, but also a bit parochial. I would recommend going to Jamie's for some of their salads, planks, desserts and Italian wines, or for simple dishes if you work in the city and want something better than the food options available at Carillon or Rayne's foodhalls.

At the Diocesan Convention held at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in November 2012, the then Bishop Coadjutor of New York, the Rt. Rev. Andrew M.L. Dietsche, in anticipation of his February 2, 2013 installation as the Diocesan Bishop on the retirement of Bishop Mark S. Sisk, asked Bishop Sisk to call for the election of a suffragan bishop in 2013. Bishop Sisk did this, and the Convention approved the necessary resolution to set the process in motion. The date for the election convention was set for Saturday, December 7, 2013, at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine.

Abigail Lorick has done it again, a wonderful collection full of whimsy and effortless ladylike glamour for which she has come to be known. For the Fall 2010 season, the Lorick Lady is a tad more eccentric and naïve. This season Abigail Lorick was inspired by angels and cocoons and played with a mix of fabrics and textures to convey a certain lightness of being and youth. Key makeup artist Cory Bishop took the lead in creating a look befitting to an angel in dress up, with porcelain doll-like skin with bright accents of color in over-blushed cheeks and pouty pink lips.

opie-login for x86 because of this
libpam problem.
If you are not a Debian user, you won't have access to the useful
apt-get command, during the x86 libraries installation, but you should be able to get them anyhow with more or less help from your distribution.
But most of the parts should still be useful for you, even the ARM libraries installation from Debian feeds: once you have installed Alien package converter, you can extract libraries and headers from
.deb packages. Here are the exact commands you'll have to type for that!
-gif option to the
./configure part of Building Qt paragraph, since the corresponding patent has expired. Thanks for pointing that out, Lewis Jardine!
DEBUG options must be the same in your build environment and in the packages you are using.
dpkg-cross and
toolchain-source in my Todo list, since they are great tools available to ease crosscompiling stuff for Debian developers.
/arm/ path missing in the right column). Thanks, Ralf Staudemeyer!
alien and
tar based ARM libraries extraction part: the wrong
libpng version was written, so my one-line extracting command would not work.
zlib1g and
libpng available versions in ARM libraries installation part.
qt/ directory, whose application is simpler than the Qt2.3.5 previous patch. Simplified the patching part of Qt installation then. By the way, Opie 1.0 and 1.0.1 still have Qt2.3.5 in their feeds, so in some circumstances you may prefer to configure your dev. environment with Qt2.3.5 rather than with Qt2.3.7. More details soon.
.3 version of their 2.95 compiler to its
.4 version, which was moved recently in an
unsupported subdirectory. Altough I use the
.4 version without any problem, I've prefered to put the
.3 version in the cross-compiler installation part.
libpng version 1.2 (aka
libpng3) instead of
libpng version 1.0 (aka
libpng2) to compile Qt and Opie. Indeed, Opie 1.0 and newer depend (through
libqte2) on
libpng3, and only
libpng3. x86 libraries installation and ARM libraries installation parts have therefore been updated.
qvfb and more generally how to develop Opie applications).
opie-login can be compiled again! I took the files from
libpam0g-dev we need from my
qt/include and
qt/lib, put them into a
tar.gz with the same architecture as the original Debian package, and put the archive on my servers (see at the end of the ARM packages URL list below).
opie-login since the appropriate debian package for
libpam0g, which was the testing one until recently, has been upgraded to GLIBC2.3 (more details below).
libpam because of this bug) the ARM pre-compiled packages we take from the debian pool below are now packages from the stable version of Debian (aka 'woody'), so we are sure they were built against the 2.2 version of the GLIBC.

Downloading Opie latest sources through CVS
Note: we will explain how to install Qt and Opie in your
/opt directory, but this is an unimportant choice, and you may as well choose a path like
~/dev/opie-and-qt or anything else.
% cd /opt
/opt% touch ~/.cvspass
If you are connecting to Opie CVS for the first time, you must log in as an anonymous user (and give 'anoncvs' as the password).
/opt% cvs -d:pserver:email@example.com:/cvs login
Then you can checkout the Opie code:
/opt% cvs -d:pserver:firstname.lastname@example.com:/cvs -z6 checkout opie
And repeat this in the directory you will use for cross-compilation:
/opt% mkdir arm; cd arm/
/opt/arm% cvs -d:pserver:firstname.lastname@example.com:/cvs -z6 checkout opie
Note: you can put
-r BRANCH_1_0 between
checkout and
opie, in the previous lines, to checkout the stable branch of Opie, Opie 1.0, instead of the development version.
Installing UIC binary and downloading Qt/Embedded sources
You can install the UIC through a Debian package:
/opt# apt-get install libqte2-dev || apt-get install uic
But if you are not using Debian, you can simply download a (big)
uic binary statically linked:
/opt# wget http://www.vanille.de/tools/uic-qt2 -O /usr/local/bin/uic then make it executable of course: chmod +x /usr/local/bin/uic
You can then download and extract the latest Qt/Embedded 2 sources:
/opt% wget ftp://ftp.trolltech.com/qt/source/qt-embedded-2.3.8.tar.bz2
Decompress the sources in two directories (one for each architecture):
/opt% tar xvjf qt-embedded-2.3.8.tar.bz2
/opt% cp -a qt-2.3.8 arm/
Installing the cross-compiler (GCC2.95-based, from Open Zaurus team)
% cd /tmp
First we download and extract the latest GCC2.95-based toolchain (definition of a toolchain):
/tmp% wget http://www.openzaurus.org/official/toolchain/cross-2.95.3.tar.bz2
If the link above is still broken (it was around Sep 29, 2004), you can try this one from handhelds.org archive.
/tmp% tar xvjf cross-2.95.3.tar.bz2
Then we install it into
/usr/local/arm directory, and we tell our environment to look here for binaries:
/tmp# mkdir /usr/local/arm; cp -a 2.95.3 /usr/local/arm
/tmp% export PATH=/usr/local/arm/2.95.3/bin:$PATH
Installing x86 libraries needed by Qt and Opie
# apt-get install libfreetype6-dev libjpeg62-dev libpam0g-dev libpng12-dev zlib1g-dev libbluetooth1-dev libpcsclite-dev pkg-config
You can also install libpcap-dev (useful if you want to build libopie2net)
Installing ARM libraries needed by Qt and Opie
Downloading ARM headers and libraries from Debian package pool
/tmp% wget -N http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libj/libjpeg6b/{libjpeg62,libjpeg62-dev}_6b-5_arm.deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/f/freetype/{libfreetype6,libfreetype6-dev}_2.0.9-1_arm.deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/z/zlib/{zlib1g,zlib1g-dev}_1.1.4-1.0woody0_arm.deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libp/libpcap/{libpcap0.7,libpcap0.7-dev}_0.7.2-7_arm.deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libp/libpng3/{libpng3,libpng-dev}_1.2.1-1.1.woody.9_arm.deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/b/bluez-libs/{libbluetooth1,libbluetooth1-dev}_2.11-1_arm.deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gcc-3.0/libgcc1_3.0.4-7_arm.deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/pcsc-lite/{libpcsclite1,libpcsclite-dev}_1.2.9-beta6-1_arm.deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/f/flex/flex_2.5.4a-24_arm.deb http://people.via.ecp.fr/~clem/nist/libpam0g-dev_0.76-9_arm_for_Opie.tgz technical note about these packages

Alternative to last paragraph: Extracting these packages, Alien way (if you are using another Linux distribution)
Since we run the following command as a normal user,
alien will complain the permissions won't be right. Don't pay attention to this message, since the permissions will be right enough to compile Opie :-)
/tmp% alien --to-tgz *.deb

Setting up the environment and patching Qt (x86 target)
% export QTDIR=/opt/qt-2.3.8

In the following line, we link to the Qt2 version of the UIC to compile Qt/Embedded. Depending on the option you've chosen in the UIC installation step, its binary name is
/usr/share/qte2/bin/uic on Debian unstable and testing,
uic on Debian stable,
uic2 on Redhat, or
uic if you prefered to install a statically linked
uic in
/usr/local/bin! So adapt the path in the following line, and link your binary to
$QTDIR/bin like this:
/opt/qt-2.3.8% ln -s /path/to/your/qt2/uic bin/uic
/opt/qt-2.3.8% export OPIEDIR=/opt/opie
/opt/qt-2.3.8% ln -s $OPIEDIR/qt/qconfig*.h src/tools/
/opt/qt-2.3.8% ls $OPIEDIR/qt
Try to guess which patches concern you amongst the output files; but if you are compiling for iPAQ and with qt-2.3.8, you'll probably have to apply only one patch (add
-macosx after
-all if you are using MacOS X):
/opt/qt-2.3.8% patch -p1 < $OPIEDIR/qt/qt-2.3.8.patch/qte238-all.patch patch command output
/opt/qt-2.3.8% ln -s /path/to/your/qt2/uic bin/uic
/opt/arm/qt-2.3.8% export OPIEDIR=/opt/arm/opie
/opt/arm/qt-2.3.8% ln -s $OPIEDIR/qt/qconfig*.h src/tools/
/opt/arm/qt-2.3.8% ls $OPIEDIR/qt

Building Qt for Opie (x86 target)
/opt/qt-2.3.8% ./configure -qconfig qpe -depths 4,16,24,32 -system-jpeg -system-libpng -system-zlib -gif -no-xft -qvfb configure command output

Note: if you are crosscompiling for a Sharp Zaurus and not an iPAQ, replace
linux-ipaq-g++ in the previous line by
linux-sharp-g++. You will also need to extract this Sharp kernel headers RPM package (or its
.tar.gz counterpart here) somewhere on your disk (by default
/opt/Embedix/tools/arm-linux), set
$KERNEL_PATH to point to it, and append
-I$KERNEL_PATH/include to the
./configure line above.

Notes on tools to speed up compilation:
/opt/opie% make menuconfig resulting .config file ; note: you may have to install
flex if it fails.
/opt/arm/opie% make menuconfig resulting .config file ; note: you may have to install
flex if it fails.
Notes on setting options in the
menuconfig build interface:
Before quitting, check that
Intel x86 is selected in Build Parameters / Target Machine.
Then you can run:
/opt/opie% make oldconfig
and finally:
/opt/opie% make make output
Before quitting, check that
iPAQ (or the appropriate Zaurus, Simpad, Yopy... target if your target device is not exactly an iPAQ) is selected in Build Parameters / Target Machine.
To speed up application launching times, you may want to select, in the same menu, Enable Quick Launch.
Then you can run:
/opt/arm/opie% make oldconfig
and finally:
/opt/arm/opie% make make output
qmake binary, for x86 (don't forget you develop on x86, whether you develop for x86 or ARM), at this address:
$OPIEDIR/qmake/qmake. This tool, included and used by Opie, is in fact a backport from Trolltech's useful tool from Qt3, and is designed to create
Makefiles easily, from
.pro files, whatever your target architecture is. Trolltech has a good
qmake manual here.
qvfb (how to get
qvfb), or on you iPAQ. For example, you can now read the Hello, World! wiki page on opie.handhelds.org! Among other things, it will teach you to write a
.pro file and to build the corresponding
Makefile, or to let Opie know there's a new
.pro file, so its main
Makefile will call
qmake for all the applications you decided to compile, including yours.
qvfb (here is a
qvfb short description by Qt)
qt3-dev-tools-embedded package under Debian unstable or testing,
libqt3-dev under Debian stable, or compile a recent Qt for X11 (
qvfb runs on X, not on iPAQs Qt/Embedded) like this one: ftp://ftp.trolltech.com/qt/source/qt-x11-free-3.2.0.tar.gz. There should be
RPM or other binaries packages availabe for your linux distribution to avoid the compilation step (see for example this Qtopia FTP directory to get an RPM that should contain
GCC3.3, unlike the ARM part (right column) where the cross-compiler is based on
GCC2.95. But don't worry, Qt and Opie are compileable with both.
libpam0g-dev, whose files needed to compile Opie are available on this server in a
tar.gz file (see
libpam0g-dev_0.76-9_arm_for_Opie.tgz address above). That's because of the following bug in the Debian stable libpam: it cannot be statically linked, and that's precisely what
opie-login compilation needs to do. Until recently, the Debian testing version,
0.76-9, was available without this bug, and was appropriate to cross-compile
opie-login. Unfortunately, this package has recently upgraded to version
0.76-13, which relies eventually on GLIBC2.3 (see the libc6 > 2.3 requirement here), which is too recent for our crosscompiler (which is based on GLIBC2.2). But that's OK since this server offers a back-up of the files we need, from version
0.76-9 :-)
dpkg-cross, a tool for installing libraries and headers for cross-compiling under Debian, which can be a sleek alternative to my seemingly hairy ARM libraries installation method (even it
dpkg-cross will only work for the happy Debian folks, especially Debian testing and unstable users. Note: it can also be used to cross-compile any Debian package (then about any opensource application ;) if you can manage the very few tweaks sometimes needed (like adding a lib path in a
debian/rules file). Here is a really quick guide to use
dpkg-cross and Philip Blundell packages to set up a crosscompiling environment, for example.
dpkg-cross road and talk about the
toolchain-source tool, which can be used quite simply with
dpkg-cross to build and set up a cross development environment on Debian, as explained in this great how-to.
/opt/arm/openssl will be your local OpenSSL dir, its includes will be in
include and its libs in
