here is another great CHEAPY combat design, the "versa wing" by the flight test guys,, 2 sheets of dollar tree foam and a super common 1300kv blue wonder motor, cheapy to build cheap electronics, easy to repair, or simply cut out another one from dollar tree foam is you bust it up while laughing your way to the bank
The Corvo
Here is a quick look at preliminary efforts to develop a better Park Flyer combat machine. Here's the breakdown as shown in the pictures and video:
Motor : 1300KV Blue Wonder with prop saver setup - http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/stor ... oduct=2069
Prop : GWS 8040 - http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/stor ... duct=10046
ESC : Turnigy Plush 10A - http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/stor ... oduct=4204
Battery : Turnigy Nano-Tech 1000mAh 3S - http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/stor ... duct=11901
Receiver : Orange 6ch ( with case intact ) - http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/stor ... duct=11965
Servos : Hextronic D-MG16 metal geared digital servos - http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/stor ... oduct=6608
Airframe : 42" Symmetrical 336sq. in. EPP/EPS combo with Coroplast fuselage and elevons
Covering : 1.5Mil laminating film ( colored with water based paint sprayed directly onto foam before covering )
AUW : 14.32oz
FYI : The above setup has been radar clocked at exactly 35mph in a smooth constant circle ( i.e. no power dives ). It may seem kind of slow, but the goal is to keep the action in close, especially since the Corvo is relatively small. It performs quite well in a tight space and the speed feels higher when that close in.
Setup :
Ailerons : High Rates = +/- 13/16" Low Rates = +/- 9/16" Soften controls with 25% expo ( Spektrum )
Elevator : High Rates = +/- 7/16" Low Rates = +/- 1/4" Soften controls with 50% expo ( Spektrum )
CG : 1.7" behind the leading edge at the center of the wing
Notes : I like my planes sensitive and responsive. Slightly less Elevator throws than even the low rates above would probably be best in the beginning. My High Rate setting may be too aggressive for many and requires restraint to keep from snapping in maneuvers as the plane slows. Low rates are typically aggressive enough.
The coloring was applied directly to the foam with a water-based paint thinned and sprayed through an airbrush. Not all paints are created equal. The red on my prototype has faded to almost white from reacting with the UV rays. Currently, I am inclined to use latex house paint, which is known to be foam safe. Still, test it on some scrap. You can pick up any color ( Behr ) you want in small sample sized quantities at Home Depot for under $3 each, which provides you PLENTY enough for a ton of planes.
The laminate covering requires high heat ( iron set almost to full ) to attach firmly to the foam, but once it does, it stays very well. This being said, you must be careful and quick with the iron. Staying in one place too long will quickly change your airfoil as the foam melts away. Practice on some scrap ( wing husks ) before covering the wing for the first time. I like the ability to paint your markings and details on the wing, as fancy as you want, without needing a bunch of different covering films. The laminate proves lighter and more tear resistant than the other colored shrink films I have tried. Just my $.02. Experimentation with other covering methods is bound to happen as each of you approach that step.
This particular plane has been in the hands of many pilots and has suffered MANY hard knocks and full throttle hits without any damage. It will pull a standard crepe paper combat ribbon without issues and is intended for 8 minute rounds, although it will usually fly right at 10 minutes without overdrawing the battery. It also handles the wind amazingly well and is currently my "go to" plane when I want to fly combat. It essentially flies like the big boys without the mess or noise. It is almost silent, but the video below had so much talking in the background that I chose to replace it with music.
10" Root, 6" tip and the leading edge of the tip is 0.75" forward of that of the root. Any symmetrical airfoil or one that is suitable for a "plank" will work, but many airfoils outside of these will present problems. ( A quick Google search will reveal several, often times found on slope gliding planks... each with different strengths and weaknesses. ) These additional pictures should also help. I typically round my motor mounts with a hole saw to match the motor mount just to clean things up a bit, but I think you can get the idea. Word of warning... this is not a flying wing! It is a plank and the correct CG is absolutely critical, but it may vary slightly depending on the chosen airfoil. A CG difference of 1/8" - 1/16" can make the difference between a great flying combat monster and a virtual nightmare that you can barely control enough to keep in the sky. Be precise. Fingertips won't cut it here. I balance mine on the edge a a very thin steel rule. This requirement makes planks VERY pitch sensitive and you should expect to use very little elevator throw with a lot of exponential ( like 50% )to smooth it out. It may take a little tuning in the beginning for your first one until you find the preference of your airfoil and any layout deviations you may have with your building alignment. That being said, once you have it tuned in, it is hands-off stable but can turn ridiculously tight if you want.
Try everything you can to keep it as light as possible. Mine are coming in less than 14.5oz AUW. There is little armor, but then little is needed as all of the planes are weighing about the same and flying at about the same speed. We penalize BIG TIME if you cannot make a full round and also have penalty points for impacts ( collisions ) to both parties, thus it has become a more precise game with less damage...especially with the planes of this size and speed. Increased speed is countered by having to use more throttle control or you run out of power and lose major points... increased durability is countered by the propulsion requirements and added weight to haul it around... longer wing spans may offer increased cutting area, but take a weight and performance hit, etc. You probably get the idea. Good luck.
Note : Each Corvo in this video below is run with different props and motors from each other, but the one taking the ribbons is as listed above.
Video of solo Corvo with first test flight dragging a ribbon. Kind of a long video, but it shows it's ability in a tight area with both inside and outside maneuvers.
Nakajima Ki-43 Hayabusa "Oscar" ( Flat Foil ) e1000 Combat Plane
This plane is just to show some variety that would qualify for the e1000 class using different building techniques. The Oscar was made from scrap sheets of 1.3# EPP foam using a 1300KV "Blue Wonder" motor, a 10A ESC, GWS 0804 prop, and a Turnigy Nanotech 1000mAh 3S 25C battery ( the exact same gear that is in the Corvo demonstrated in the previous post ). 10 minute flight times at 75% throttle average ending at 3.85V per cell. 34.5" wingspan, 200sq.in of wing area with an AUW of 9.48oz to give a wing loading of 6.83oz/sq.ft. This was just a test of concept and materials. The drag of the fuselage, wing, and tail is typical and expected for this type of construction, but I was surprised of the performance penalty compared to other designs boasting some actual aerodynamic considerations that use the same propulsion system. For the cost and time commitment, the results are not bad, but not spectacular...about as expected. Initial flights ( on video ) reveal that it could potentially be improved with an actual airfoil and/or an application of some light weight laminating film ( 1.7mil ) to stiffen the wing a little. Thinner tail feathers certainly would not hurt in the drag department as well. ( The laminating film was later tested on this exact plane and it did indeed remove any traces of flutter. ) Originally, the control surfaces were secured and hinged with Welder contact cement, which works great. Unfortunately, I applied a little too much which made them too tight. I had to cut them free and reattach with Blenderm tape to make them flexible enough to operate freely. This step takes away from the appearance and may account for some of the flutter that was generated in a pullout from a high speed dive on the original setup. Lessons still being learned...
Again, I am not promoting one particular design, just trying to showing some of the different options that are available for builders of all levels. Let's face it, combat requires some degree of scratch building if you are going to participate much.

You should use a cheap wing wing from hobbyking. It only costed about $40.

FT Flyer if you add full length ailerons is an amazing combat platform. It is very agile and virtually indestructible.
I use two planes for combat. I have an Assassin and an Airfield 800mm Zero. I got the Zero last year for cheap on the black Friday special. I put a 1400kv / 30A esc and 9x6 setup on it. I use the 3s 1800 pack. It's a fantastic combat plane. It flies great slow and fast. I like it better than the Assassin. I just wish it would take all the abuse I give the Assassin.
P.S. black Friday is coming up again.

Cheap and fun and you don't have to "order one". Just go down to your local Dollar Store, lay down a buck for some foam board, do a search on RC groups for Nutball and build one in an hour or so. HeadsUpRC has a great little 250 motor, recommended ESC/prop/etc and shipping is only 2 bucks.
I might suggest stripping the paper off the foam board, apply your graphics and then cover with clear packing tape.

Blue Note,
I have made a 36 inch version of your Corvo with a flat wing of EPP, and it flys extremely well.
I now fancy a go at hot wire cutting a 42in one. Read hot wire virgin
Could you tell me how thick is your wing at the root and the tip please.
This Corvo park flyer use a 14% thick symmetric airfoil. The root is 10" and the tip is 6", which means 1.4" and 0.84" respectively. Some asymmetrical airfoils will work as well, as long they are appropriate for planks and/or flying wings. Some of these may be thicker or thinner, with different amounts of drag and lift. Some may also fly great on the straight of way and fall out quickly in hard turning...or not do much no matter how much elevon or aileron deflection you input. Some might make it faster or allow it to turn tighter with up elevator, but will also limit your negative maneuvers, so you need to consider your flying style or purpose... and that of your competitors. Different airfoils also "come alive" at different speeds and wing loadings, so that will also introduce some variability. Overall, most airfoils worth considering for the park flyer Corvo will benefit from being built lightly for a minimum wing loading, which also helps increase survivability from collisions and dirt naps. In the end, it is just one big compromise. You have to give up some characteristics to gain advantage in others.
The video above has some footage of a slope glider version I made with a 9.8% semi-symmetrical airfoil just for fun. It actually flies great, in even light wind, but not as well inverted. I could easily put a motor on it, would just need to do most of my turning with up elevator... which is too much of a compromise for me for powered combat.

Zacks Investment Research upgraded
Companhia Brasileira de Distribuicao
) also known as Grupo Pão de Açúcar (GPA) to a Zacks Rank #1
(Strong Buy) on Mar 29. The stock has witnessed strong momentum
ever since company announced strong fourth quarter and full year
2013 results last month, despite tough macroeconomic
Why the Upgrade?
On Feb 13, this Brazilian retailer posted fourth quarter 2013
results and delivered profits of R$864 million ($403 million)
compared with R$503 million ($259 million) in the year-ago
quarter. The year-over-year increase in profits reflects growth
in all its business segments - food retail, cash and carry,
electronics and home appliances retail (bricks and mortar),and
e-commerce. These segments are grouped into two large categories,
namely GPA Food and Viavarejo.
GPA Food comprises supermarkets, hypermarkets, neighborhood
stores, cash-and-carry stores, gas stations and drugstores while
Viavarejo includes household appliances and e-commerce operations
through Nova Pontocom.
Consolidated gross sales increased 14.9% year over year (in
local currency), benefiting from double-digit comparable store
sales growth. Pão de Açúcar opened 50 new stores in the quarter,
which also fueled sales growth.
Adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and
amortization (EBITDA) increased 23.8%. Adjusted EBITDA margin
increased 60 basis points to 9.5% in the fourth quarter, owing to
a significant decline in the selling, general and administrative
expense ratio from 19.0% in the year-ago quarter to 16.8% in the
fourth quarter of 2013.
During the year, Pão de Açúcar focused on implementing a
competitive pricing strategy in the Food Retail segment,
especially in the Extra banner segment, which helped it to gain
market share and increase customer traffic.
The ViaVarejo segment strengthened its presence in the capital
markets by carrying out an IPO at the end of 2013. The IPO
fortified the financial structure of GPA, helping it to reduce
its net debt position. The company launched Extra Marketplace, a
new sales model at Nova Pontocom in 2013 that brings together in
a single website offers from multiple stores in a variety of
segments thus offering a better product assortment.
Pão de Açúcar is gearing up to expand its stores and market
share by cutting down on costs in the face of a tough retail
environment. The company expects to open 400 new food stores by
2016, which includes 360 new convenience stores in its Mini
Mercado format. The company also has expansion plans for its
wholesaler, Assai, which has been posting solid results in the
last few quarters. The company is expected to open 12 to 15
stores per year through 2016 under the Assai banner, particularly
in the fast-growing Northeast region. In addition, Pão de Açúcar
plans to open 210 stores by 2016 in the ViaVarejo unit.
This retailer witnessed upward estimate revisions after the
announcement of its fourth quarter 2013 results. Estimates for
2014 and 2015 increased 0.9% and 1.3%, respectively over the past
60 days.
Other Stocks to Consider
Other stocks worth considering in the retail sector include
Etablissements Delhaize Fr.
The Kroger Co.

Fortune Brands Home & Security, Inc.

Clifford's Tower, York
5 Reviews
5 Reviews
Favorite thing: We climbed to the top of Cliffords Tower for a great view of the city of York... We could see the extent of the floods from up there too which was interesting... The kids were having a great time playing in the water on the streets...it was fun to watch them for a while. :)
Favorite thing: Clifford's Tower is a proud symbol of the might of the medieval kings and was built by Henry III in the 13th century. It was earlier made out of wood but later converted into stone. The Jews of York were at one time persecuted and burnt alive in this tower and there is a small memorial in their honour there too. The tower is closed for viewing if it is raining heavily!! Entrance is 2 Pounds Sterling.
Favorite thing: You must visit the imposing Clifford's Tower, built as the central keep of York castle in the 13th century. Before this structure, there was a wooden tower dating back to the 11th century, built on the same mound. In 1190, within this wooden structure, York's Jewish community was massacred. Just one of many gruesome tales that make up York's history.
Favorite thing: This is a view inside from the walls of Clifford's Tower. It was such windy day, and I must admit that the narrow stairs and wall did not make me feel very secure! Also, remembering the chilling history made it a moving experience overall.
Favorite thing:
take a look at Clifford's Tower (in Tower Street).
Set atop a grassy mound, this circular tower has a grim past. In 1190 the York Jewish community sought protection in the tower from a mob of anti-semitists. Rather than perish at the hands of the mob, the Jews took their own lives.

Tony Abbott says Julia Gillard flood levy masking her government's spending
- From: AAP
- January 29, 2011
- "PM using floods to hide spending addiction", says Abbott
- Mr Abbott says mates choose to help and not coerced
- Wayne Swan slams Opposition leader's outburst
OPPOSITION leader Tony Abbott is urging rural independent MPs to ditch their support for Prime Minister Julia Gillard, accusing her of using the floods to mask her government's spending addiction.
In a speech to the Young Liberals convention on the Gold Coast today, Mr Abbott ramped up his criticism of the federal government's flood levy to rebuild Queensland's infrastructure.
Also today, NSW Premier Kristina Keneally continued to push for changes to the national flood levy due to the high cost of living in Sydney, despite Ms Gillard ruling out any special treatment, and Treasurer Wayne Swan said he felt sickened Mr Abbott was putting his own political ambitions ahead of rebuilding the shattered lives of Queensland flood victims.
Ms Gillard, on Thursday, announced the government would impose a one-off, modest flood levy on taxpayers earning more than $50,000.
"A prime minister who's unconvincing when responding to a natural disaster is unlikely to solve the much more politically and administratively complex problems that she had previously set herself to fix," Mr Abbott told the audience.
"Like the global financial crisis under Kevin Rudd, the government could use the floods as a justification for its spending addiction and as a licensed distraction from actually delivering on its promises.
"At some point, the independent MPs who returned the government to office could start to reconsider their decision."
Mr Abbott said Ms Gillard will face a voter backlash.
"The Prime Minister is pitching it as a mateship tax even though mateship is about helping people, not taxing them," he said.
"Mates choose to help; they're not coerced. Mateship comes from people, not from government. People resent being ordered to pay what they'd gladly give of their own volition especially by a government so reckless with taxpayers' money.
"Invoking a disaster to justify a tax, compounds the allegedly wooden demeanour that Julia Gillard showed during the floods with a tin ear afterwards."
He conceded the federal government will have to cover the lion's share of the repair bill for damaged infrastructure but said money could be found elsewhere.
"Flood victims simply can't be without the roads and the railways which are necessary for modern life," he said. "(The bill) will run into billions of dollars but that's no excuse for the flood tax ... there's about $2 billion uncommitted in various funds."
Mr Abbott urged Ms Gillard to drop the tax for the "spirit of national unity".
"She apparently can't grasp the rip-off involved in taxing people in order to be generous to them," he said. "Two years ago, the government sent out $900 cheques to almost nine million people. Now, it's effectively taking the money back."
Young Liberals applauded when Mr Abbott said he would offer bipartisan support to find other savings, if Ms Gillard dropped the flood levy plan.
Meanwhile, Treasurer Wayne Swan today slammed Mr Abbott for putting his own political ambitions ahead of helping Queenslanders.
"As we work to rebuild infrastructure and homes, the only home Mr Abbott has his eye on is The Lodge, and I think frankly that's disgusting," he told reporters in the Ipswich suburb of Goodna.
"Communities have been shattered, there's been enormous loss of life. Mr Abbott is using this event for his own political gains. He's playing politics at a time when there's families here in distress."
Mr Swan continued the federal government's sales pitch of the flood levy.
"Six out of 10 Australians will pay less than a $1 a week for the flood levy," he said. "If you are on $80,000 it's ... $2.80 less than the cost of a cup of coffee."

Mr Abbott your comments are fair, however what are YOUR views on reducing our "MASSIVE/HUMUNGEOUS Foreign Aid handout by 50% for a number of years, get ourselves back into Surplus (Capital 'S') & then go back to being the UN shoeshine boy! I takeit the handout is voluntary & no INTERNATIONAL COURT DECISIONS are needed to help ourselves first & then the corrupt regimes we toady to!

Liberal hypocrites...should we talk about howard and his levies...gun buy back, sugar tax, ansett tax, none of which added one bit of infrastructure. or have you Libs got that selective memory thing happening still. and lets not forget the Liar Monks proposal to introduce a tax to pay for maternity leave...selective about what you whinge about - you supported that, but not a levy to fix infrastructure. And Howards refusal to remove the tax on fuel, introduced by Faser, when he introduced the GST. the complaints about this levy are just mean spirited and un Australian

Phony Tony has yet to offer an alternative option but as the Lib love to sell national assets what would they sell to cover the repair costs? If they did not sell assets then they would tax everyone under 50k and blame the whole problem on the ALP. During the floods Phony Tony has only criticised, attacked, the government when he has not been blocking and obstructing the actions of the government of the day

In the struggle to become more independent, you must start paying your own way.
But there's a price; stress, lack of social life and sleep depravation are all negative effects
of working and going to school. Many people do this, while going to college to better
themselves and they must work to pay for it. Because we all know, higher education is
not free. Well at least not for most, except for the lucky few with the rich parents!
Realistically most people work their way through college, attempting to balance both
work and school. But what does all this do to a person?
Stress is one of the biggest negative effects plaguing working college students. So
much is expected from them. They are expected to work anywhere from ten to forty
hours a week, go to school, do another four to eight hours of homework per class and
then somehow manage to fit sleep in there. "Stress can overtax our adjustive capacity,
affect our moods, impair our ability to feel pleasure, and harm the body. Also, "Stress is
the number one reason that college students seek help at college counseling. (Rathus &
Nevid, Psychology, 142) As you can see, stress is a major problem for college students
and has many negative effects. One of the worst effects of stress is its effect on one's
health. Stress can literally make you sick, lowering your immune system and opening you
up to a Pandora's Box of problems. At first, it might just be small things like a headache
or a cold and then progress to more major problems like respiratory or circulatory
problems. The key is to take time out for yourself, and most importantly, get enough
sleep. Unfortunately, that rarely happens with so many things to do and so little time.
Another major negative effect is lack of sleep. With all these responsibilities
placed on these students, it just seems like there aren

Iran fells Kuwait in AFC U-22 Cup opener
The Iranian national team has got off to a promising start in the AFC Under-22 Football Championship, edging past Kuwait by a single goal. Defender Amin Haj Mohammad scored the game's only goal in the 74th minute in the Hang Jebat Stadium in Melaka, Malaysia on Saturday. The Iranian team could have broken the deadlock much earlier in the game, had they been more lethal with their finishing, especially in the first half, where they rattled the woodwork once and squandered another one-on-one opportunity. Overall, the result was flattering for Kuwait as Iran hogged position and overpowered its opponent. Alireza Biranvand stood between the sticks for the Iranian side, with Shahriar Shirvand, Mohammad Reza Khanzadeh, Amin Haj-Mohammadi, Vahid Esmail Beigi, Morteza Poor Ali Ganji, Akbar Imani, Mohsen Mosalman, Milad Qaribi, Payam Sadeqian, and Yaghoob Karimi being the other names on the starting line-up. The AFC Under-22 Football Championship games are held in seven groups, each containing six teams. Iran is grouped with the UAE, Qatar, the Maldives, Tajikistan and Bahrain. HMV/AZ

Photos of Robert Pattinson After Being Hit By Taxi in NYC
Robert Pattinson All Dressed Up After His Rough & Tumble Day
Robert Pattinson looked handsome in his shirt and tie on his way to film Remember Me in NYC today after his dramatic morning. Rob was clipped by a taxi cab earlier in the day as he was trying to leave a bookstore amid the usual throng of eager fans. Luckily, he was okay and headed back to work just a few hours later — quite the trooper. It's hard to believe it's only been a week that Rob has been filming in NYC considering all the drama that he's been dealing with but it's reassuring to see that pretty face of his looking all kinds of hot as he gets to work.

Detroit (AP) -- Police in Detroit are searching for a gunman after a series of shootings that killed two people and wounded three others in the span of ten minutes.
Police say all of the shootings happened this morning in a three-to-four-block area of the city's west side.
One woman died after being shot inside a vehicle in front of a day care facility, and a man died after being shot around the corner from the building.

Additional Location Information
We are located on the Main street in the center of Chester, Vermont, on the green. Chester is a very beautiful quintessential Vermont town setting with shops, bookstore, galleries, restaurants across the street on the green and within walking distance. Close by: skiing, golfing, swimming, hiking, biking, wildlife, museums, theater, music and more.
About Chester - The Misty Valley
Chester is a small Vermont village nestled in the Eastern slopes of the Green Mountains in the Williams River Valley, along the South Central tier of the state. Our citizenry is not as diverse as some places but we do have a fine mix of natives and those from away - some from far, far away who have happily decided to make Chester their home too.
Our population is small compared to our landmass -- around 3,000 residents within 56 square miles, which can make for a solitude not found in a city. And our land offers some of the most diverse and beautiful landscapes imaginable. You'll never grow tired of experiencing our hills and mountains, valleys and streams, rocky ledges and pastures. In all seasons, Chester is a wonder to behold.
The three branches of the Williams River come together in downtown Chester as they head through Rockingham to the Connecticut River. The North Branch begins in Andover, runs through Ludlow then turns south along Route 103 through the Stone Village. The South Branch runs from Tater Hill Golf Course along Popple Dungeon Road before turning north at the Grafton Road. And the Middle Branch runs from Andover to Chester along Route 11.
There are numerous spots for fishing or dipping along each branch.
Because of the way that Chester sits along these branches and the various mountains that divide it, our weather patterns between areas can be almost as diverse as our landscape. Popple Dungeon may be getting hit with a snowstorm while Main Street is sunny -- or vise versa. What definitely happens in this area is morning mists rolling off the mountains.
Two Historic Districts
The town is comprised of two districts in the National Register of Historic Places: The Stone Village Historic District (also known as the Stone Houses at Chester Depot) are on both sides of Route 103 North. It consists of 10 Greek Revival buildings that also includes a former school (now a home) and a Unitarian Universalist Church. This district was recognized in 1974.
The Chester Village Historic District, also known as South Village, was recognized in 1985. It is roughly bounded by Lovers Lane Brook, Maple Street, the Middle Branch of the Williams River and Lovers Lane. Its historic significance is its mix of Late Victorian, Colonial Revival and Federal style architecture. These homes, houses of worship and businesses were built between 1750 and 1924.
Currently, there are 40 Historic Districts in Vermont.
Here are a few numbers you should know:
Chester has 1. Zero stoplights 2. One ZIP code -- 05143 3.Two gas stations 4. One phone exchange -- 875 (Vermont only has one Area Code -- 802).

If they need the Joker, recast Johnny Depp in the role. Get him away from Tim Burton and show him what a REAL Batman director can do! Seriously though, Depp could pull off the role in a similar take to Ledger's as well as a similar look. Yet I could also see him coming in and making a mark on the role all his own even given all of Ledger's marks he has to follow.

Sometimes you'll find you need to issue a query or command that the Entity Framework can't support. In fact this problem is common to most ORMs, which is why so many of them have a backdoor to the database.
The Entity Framework has a backdoor too…
In .NET 3.5 SP1 you can get to the underlying database connection through your ObjectContext.
Calling ObjectContext.Connection returns an IDbConnection, but not the one we need, it is an EntityConnection. However the EntityConnection has a StoreConnection property that does return what we need:
var entityConn = ctx.Connection as EntityConnection; var dbConn = entityConn.StoreConnection as SqlConnection;
Once you have this connection you are free to issue a query or command in the normal ADO.NET way:
dbConn.Open(); var cmd = new SqlCommand("SELECT * FROM PRODUCTS", dbConn ); using (var reader = cmd.ExecuteReader()) { while (reader.Read()) { Console.WriteLine("Product: ID:{0} Name:{1} CategoryID:{2}", reader[0].ToString(), reader[1].ToString(), reader[2].ToString() ); } } dbConn.Close();
Pretty easy huh?
In .NET 4.0 this is even better. There are 2 new methods hanging directly off ObjectContext.
If you use ExecuteStoreQuery<T>(..), the EF will create and populate instances of the T for you. So you can write code like this:
foreach(var product in ctx.ExecuteStoreQuery<Product>(sql)) { Console.WriteLine("Product: ID:{0} Name:{1} CategoryID:{2}", product.Id, product.Name, product.CategoryId ); }
To get this to work the Column names returned by the query must match the property names in the class and the class must have a default constructor. But the class doesn't even need to be an Entity.
So for example if you have this class:
public class ProductView { public int ID { get; set; } public string Name { get; set; } public string CategoryName { get; set; } }
To materialize instances of it you just need to write your SQL such that it has ID, Name and CategoryName columns.
i.e. Something like this:
string SQL = @"SELECT P.ID, P.Name, C.Name AS CategoryName FROM Products P JOIN Categories C ON P.CategoryID = C.ID";
foreach (var pv in ctx.ExecuteStoreQuery<ProductView>(SQL)) { Console.WriteLine("{0} {1} {2}", pv.ID, pv.Name, pv.CategoryName ); }
Now of course, this example is for demonstration purposes only, normally the query would be much more complicated, i.e. something that LINQ to Entities can't handle natively.
In this particular example you could easily do this using standard LINQ to Entities code, see Tip 40 if you are wondering how.
If the classes being created are indeed Entities, and you want to edit them, you have to provide a little more information:
var productToEdit = ctx.ExecuteStoreQuery<Product>(sql, "Products", MergeOption.PreserveChanges ).Single(); productToEdit.CategoryId = 6; ctx.SaveChanges();
Here the second parameter is the name of the EntitySet that the Product belongs too, and the third parameter tells the EF how to merge these entities with any duplicates that might already be in the ObjectContext.
If you do this right, calling SaveChanges() will flush the changes made to productToEdit back to the database.
This one is very simple, you issue some command, for example a batch update method, and you will get back whatever the underlying provider returns, typically the number of rows affected:
// 10% inflation day! ctx.ExecuteStoreCommand( "UPDATE Products SET Price = Price * 1.1" );
It is that simple.

Foucault on the Politics of Parrhesia
|Publication Date
|March 2014
|Hardcover Ebook (EPUB) Ebook (PDF)
|Palgrave Pivot
The late Foucault's discussions of truth-telling (parrhesia) revolve around freedom of speech and the quality of democracy: citizens' courage to speak truth to power as well as political authorities' courage to speak truthfully as to what must be done. The notion of parrhesia held particular interest for Foucault as a result of its focus on the ground for exercising political authority. It connotes truthful and trustworthy speech, which goes hand in hand with the accountability and capability of democratic government. With parrhesia we get a political take on truth, for which personal integrity, frankness, timing, courage and resolve are defining features. Foucault's discussions of parrhesia are vital for getting at his political triangulation of power, knowledge and ethics, alias techniques of governmentality, truth-telling and the shaping of the relationship to self. These ideas provide the basis for approaching his discussions on the autonomy of politics and democratic political authority.

Koufu Sentosa
Affordable local standards
What we say:
Koufu doesn't have as many stalls as mall food courts, but local favourites like chicken rice, fried noodles and Indian food are under $5 and there's good Japanese food. The drinks stall is definitely the cheapest place on Sentosa to get a Tiger beer and the chendol (a sundae of shaved ice, sweet syrup and toppings) is the perfect antidote to the heat. The indoor dining area is icily air-conditioned or you can sit outside by the beach.

Bears about to hibernate, or go Grizzly?
The Bears sit atop the NFC North with the Packers, at 6-3.
The Bears play at Miami this Thursday night, and catch a break by facing the Dolphins #3 QB in Tyler Thigpen. Still not a cupcake game though.
But look at the final 7 games for the Bears.
How many do you think they will win?
Will they go 6-1, 5-2, 4-3, 2-5, or 1-6?
Percentage-wise, they won't run em all either way.
This is a brutal schedule on paper, although the Fins are on their #3 QB for them, and the Lions their #2.
* @ Miami L
* Philadelphia L
* @ Detroit W
* New England L
* @ Minnesota W
* NY Jets L
* @ Green Bay L
I'm a bigger Thiggy fan than most so I got them losing this week. So that makes it 2-5
See them going 3-4 or 4-3. Division may well come down to week 17 at Green Bay.
I think they beat Miami, Detroit & Minnesota. I voted 4-3 though, because if they win those 3 and lose the other 2, they should put up a really competitive fight against the packers.
I voted 3-4. Going 9-7 possibly miss the playoffs and nothing changes as they will be mediocre the next season as well.
True, despite injury depletion or possibly missing the playoffs themselves the Packers would love to trash the Bears season.
It's a tough schedule for sure. Packers have a pretty tough schedule too.
at Miami W I think it all depends on the Dolphins getting their running game going against the Bears good run D. Thigpien is good enough to play decent and did lead a good drive last week and had some good starts in 2008. Still a win though for the Bears.
Philly. L Tough home game with Vick playing so well. Huge game for tie breakers but I think Philly pulls it out.
at Detroit W My heart wants Detroit to continue to play well at home and avenge the Week 1 loss but our Dline and special teams are going to have monster games. Hill can move the ball but we can't run the ball and I think the Bears pull this one out unfortunately.
New England Loss Brady and Double B always are winners.
at Minnesota W Season over the Vikes but I think the Bears pull of the close one. Road warriors in this stretch for the Bears
Jets Win Bears finally win a tough home game other than Pack and limit Greene/LT. Another close one but Bears get the W.
at Green Bay Loss Pack win the division at Lambeau but Bears get wildcard at 10-6.
W Miami
L Philly
W Detroit
L New England
L Minnesota
L New York
L Green Bay
8-8, no playoffs.
That's a pretty brutal schedule. I said 2-5 with wins against MIA and DET.
Where is the 7-0 option?
I wish I could use my powers as Bears team leader to keep others from talking about the Bears unless they actually know wtf they are talking about.........but alas.
Anywho, we're about to play Miami who'll be on their 3rd string QB on a short week. If our strong run defense translates vs. the Wildcat, this should be a win.
And then I think we'll beat Detroit and Minnesota. We already have, and nothing those teams has been doing tells me the result should be any different. Then, the Packers game will decide the division in the final week.
9-7 or 10-6 depending on how that game goes.
All I know is that I will laugh if the Bears win the division after reading eight months of Packer/Viking fan bitchfests on here.
How is facing Thigpen a break for the Bears??? He's more of a threat than the Chads
I expect to see a bunch of wildcat and a simplified overall offense. We've been lights out against the run so if that translates vs. the wildcat, I think we'll be fine.
There's always the chance of Cutler throwing the game away ala the Redskins, but for anyone to seriously sit back and think the Dolphins should win is asinine imo.
2-5. Wins against the Patriots and the Jets.
This team is completely unpredictable and what should make sense, well, doesn't. They smash Dallas on the road and Minnesota at home. They beat Green Bay at home. They play like **** against Seattle and Washington...at home. And let's not even talk about the Giants **** fest.
The games we should have a decent shot at winning (Miami, Detroit and Minnesota) will probably result in losses. And in the games we should get stomped (Jets, Pats and Packers) we'll probably play pretty well.
I'd really like to eat crow though and see us close out this schedule with a winning record (10-6). But, I'm about done getting my hopes up that we can turn the corner so I'm shooting my expectations very low.
I seriously don't understand how they keep winning but by all means please keep doing it.
Whereas the Chargers have an overall high level of talent, an efficient and productive downfield passing game, and put up great stats.. yet still lose because of stupid mistakes and horrid special teams.. the Bears have a mediocre level of talent (although the combination of Cutler, Peppers and Urlacher bump that up) , an oft-dreadful passing game, and put up bad stats.. yet still win because of no mistakes and amazing special teams.
But the Bears make plenty of mistakes....Cutler makes sure of that.
No 0-7 option?
im not sure if people have watched the bears recently

But this winter was different. My dad had been trying to get work for quite some time. But living in an area where seasonal work is the norm, if you don't get work in the summer, you are in trouble for the winter.
This winter on thing we did have was caplin. Caplin is are fish that when they are spawning, roll up onto the beaches in massive quantities. We had gone out when they rolled and gathered them up in big buckets and then dried them, froze them, and bottled them.
Over the course of the winter, money and consequently food was getting scarcer and scarcer until finally all we had left was caplin. My poor mom invented recipes to try to make it different, being very creative and trying to make us forget that for Breakfast, Lunch, and Supper we were eating caplin. By the time things turned around for us, I would have rathered eat a cardboard box than touch another caplin.
That winter affected me in more ways than is obvious. from that moment on, I knew we were broke. I knew that if they were selling anything at school, asking mom and dad to come up with the money for it was mean because they only felt bad. I knew that if I wanted anything new, I had to come up with the money for it myself, by babysitting or whatever other means I could. That was the winter I felt like we were poor.

A Toxic Affair: How the chemical lobby blocked action on hormone disrupting chemicals
May 19th 2015Food and agriculture, International trade
An investigation led by research and campaign group Corporate Europe Observatory (CEO) and journalist Stéphane Horel exposes corporate lobby groups mobilising to stop the EU taking action on hormone (endocrine) disrupting chemicals (EDCs). The report sheds light on how corporations and their lobby groups have used numerous tactics from the corporate lobbying playbook: scaremongering, evidence-discrediting, and delaying tactics as well as the ongoing TTIP negotiations as a leverage.

For those who love their black metal filled with death and death metal filled with blackness, then you know the name of this band for sure. Their incredibly fast riffing, drum work and treacherous vocals bring forth terror to those who are looking for it. Belphegor's last album was highly regarded in my book. The songs were evil, catchy and it had the perfect blend of black metal and death metal to make things ultra sinister. I am a massive fan of Behemoth and Belphegor is just like them in many ways…only sped up.

Review: Lago – Tyranny
With a combination of old school death metal and Polish blackened death, Lago has ultimately given us one of the best death metal records of 2014. Tyranny has been blasting my car speakers and headphones for a week straight and that is because it's something I just needed to listen to over and over and over again to grasp it's entire meaning and appreciate all of the little things that Lago put into Tyranny. This was an anticipation album for me and I was not let down at all.
IMMOLATION Streaming New Song "Kingdom of Conspiracy"
Immolation is one of those really good death metal bands that get overlooked often and they are massively underrated in my book. Streaming their new song "Kingdom of Conspiracy", they prove that 20+ years of hard work and determination can end up granting you great results. The songs is heavy, tightly played and the production sounds the best they've ever had. Hail IMMOLATION!!!!

2013 Decibel Magazine Tour: CANNIBAL CORPSE, NAPALM DEATH & IMMOLATION!
Oh holy shit fuck yes! Watain and Behemoth was good last year and this year it's pure carnage! Decibel will be bringing some heavy hitters on this years tour. Cannibal Corpse, Napalm Death, Immolation, Cretin, Beyond Creation and Magrudergrind are going to be tearing up a venue near you!!!
Marduk & Immolation Are Going To Fuck Europe Up!
IMMOLATION Currently Finishing Up New Album!
New York death metal legends, IMMOLATION, recently entered Sound Studios in Millbrook, NY with longtime producer Paul Orofino to record their ninth full-length album. The follow up to their 2010 release Majesty and Decay, will once again be mixed and mastered by Zack Ohren (ALL SHALL PERISH, DECREPIT BIRTH, SUFFOCATION).
"Just got out of the studio a couple of days ago, here in Europe now getting ready to do some open air festivals," commented guitarist and dead ringer for Anton Lavey, Robert Vigna. "The new album will have 10 tracks of some of the most intensely dark material we have ever written! Very powerful and very heavy. Steve (Shalaty – drums) really pushed it all to the limits on this one too.
Once again we went up to Millbrook, NY to do the main tracking. Paul Orofino got us some of the best sounds we've had yet! We were there for two weeks laying down tracks, having amazing Belgian beers at Paul's in house bar 'BarFunGul', as well as plenty of BBQing! Throughout the time we were there we got through one blackout and dodged a very intense storm system that had the potential to cut our recording session real short. Luckily everything worked out. We still have to add some last touches on to the songs etc., as well as have Zack Ohren mix and master it all but so far everything is off to a great start.
Be certain that this new album will surely be one of our strongest yet. We look forward to getting it all finished up soon and getting it out there as soon as possible for the fans!"
Here is some more greatness of 2011. More personal opinions that hardly matter but I feel as though they should be shared. Here are some more "best of 2011″ mini-lists. An award ceremony if you will. Except there are no awards. The only award is us listening to them and their music.

The Night United Started to Believe; THE MOMENTS WHICH SHAPED 2012: January 4 - Newcastle Shock the Champions at St James' Newcastle United Rang in the New Year Uncertain of What 2012 Held for Them but, Writes Stuart Rayner, an Unforgettable Win over the Reigning Champions Reinvigorated Their Push for Europe
NEWCASTLE United began 2012 with high hopes, but perhaps not high expectations. Alan Pardew's first full season as manager started brilliantly, a super-settled side establishing itself in the early-season top four. By the turn of the year, though, it looked as if they might be running out of steam.
Between Bonfire Night and New Year's Eve their only win was over Bolton Wanderers, who were on their way to relegation. January did not look too promising either.
Demba Ba and Cheick Tiote were off to the African Cup of Nations, probably until mid-February.
January 4 was the last game the pair would be available for, but it looked a very difficult one to get anything out of.
Newcastle had not beaten Manchester United for ten years and there had been some hammerings to boot.
In six weeks of 2008 alone the Magpies shipped 11 goals home and away to the Red Devils.
The visitors were locked in their annual title race and, as all English football fans know, Christmas is traditionally the time they step up their form.
Making it harder rather than easier was the fact Man United had lost their previous game, humiliated by Blackburn Rovers on Sir Alex Ferguson's birthday. They rarely lose twice in succession.
Not only did that happen, they were comprehensively outplayed by a brilliant Newcastle. It was a great way for the Magpies to start 2012, and a sign of things to come.
Encouraged by Blackburn, Newcastle decided to go for it. They too adopted an unashamedly direct approach, and ran out 3-0 winners.
"The whole country felt that Blackburn had no chance of winning, but they did it," argued Ba, the Premier League's in-form striker, afterwards. "It was the same for us.
"We went on the pitch with the belief we could win, and we're very happy with the result."
Yohan Cabaye's brilliant free-kick doubled the lead Ba had given them. Centre-back Phil Jones had been given a torrid night by the recalled Shola Ameobi, and rounded it off with a bizarre own goal.
It should really have been more, the Red Devils let off the hook when Howard Webb decided it was okay for Rio Ferdinand to bring Ba down from behind in the penalty area.
No wonder there was not a hint of a complaint about the result from Ferguson.
Any victory over the all-powerful clubs for whom the title race is a private affair is to be celebrated, but the fact Newcastle's was so crushing made it all the more satisfying.
"We went a little bit more direct, and it paid dividends for us," Pardew explained.
"We can change tactics, we have different strengths to the squad and we haven't approached every game with the same gameplan.
"Whatever you say about tonight, we were brave. We didn't let them rest on the ball. We were in their faces all night, and didn't drop off in the second half. We got our rewards."
The confidence Newcastle took from 90 minutes at St James' Park served them well for the rest of the season. It allowed them to ride out the African Cup of Nations.
Twice they were badly beaten on the road - conceding five at Fulham and Tottenham Hotspur - but they had the reserves of belief built up that night to draw from.
Crucially, they cashed in on the feelgood factor by paying PS7.5m to Freiburg for Ba's international teammate Papiss Cisse early in the transfer window, even though he too was in Africa. It was an inspired signing, hitting the ground running with 13 goals in his first 12 games.
They also got a bit of luck, Ba and Cisse coming back early from the African Cup after Senegal surprisingly failed to make it out of the group stage.
With Cisse prolific, Newcastle got back on a roll. Although a shock 4-0 defeat at Wigan Athletic ended a run of six straight wins, they quickly jumped back on the horse with a 2-0 win at Chelsea inspired by two goals from the new signing. …

London Futsal Club, the only provider of adult partially sighted football within London and part of the Sports M.A.T.E programme, scooped the award for Inclusive Sports Project of the Year at the event held at Waltham Forest Assembly Hall.
Supported by the Foundation, the independently run club competes in the British Blind Sport (BBS) National Partially Sighted League. The squad boasts an array of talent, including Bradley Bricknal and Adam Lione, who represented England at the partially sighted World Cup in Japan in February this year.

Morning briefing
DETROIT -- Good morning from Joe Louis Arena, where the Bruins will face off against the Red Wings tonight. The game will air on Versus.
* Zdeno Chara will most likely be matched against Detroit's power line of Tomas Holmstrom, Pavel Datsyuk, and Todd Bertuzzi. Datsyuk has scored two goals and four assists in his last three games. Holmstrom has never scored a goal against the Bruins in 14 career games. Boston is the only team Holmstrom has never scored against.
* The Boston power play (12.2 percent, 29th in the league) will go up against the Detroit penalty kill (72.7 percent, 28th in the NHL).
* The Wings average 9.3 penalty minutes per game, fewest in the NHL.
* Dan O'Halloran and Kevin Pollock will be the referees. Shane Heyer and Greg Devorski will be the linesmen.

text: You could just set the condensor for your largest format and leave it there. The purpose of the condensor is to distribute light evenly over the negative area. If it is even over a 6x7 area, it will be even over a 35mm, 6x4.5, and 6x6 area. The only real gain you get by matching the condensor precisely to the format is increasing light output for smaller formats, and that is usually small--typically on the order of 1/2 stop between medium format and 35mm--only really of interest if you are printing really big from 35mm.

Joining striking modern design with a soothing waterfall stream, the Reston Wall-Mount Bathroom Faucet makes for a dazzling addition. This faucet features a single-lever handle with a square control and a shining Chrome finish.

Excellent Waterfall Bath FaucetWe purchased and installed the brushed nickel to fill our Treece stand alone tub. It is a stylish and signature look. Note that with the approval of our inspector we removed the faucet's 2.2 gpm aerator and this now the faucet pumps out over 5 gpm. Our tub fills in about 6 minutes vs the long fill time that "Ingrid" mentioned. The only reason it doesn't get 5 stars is that the piece that covers the valve hole isn't quite big enough to cover the hole. If it were 3/8 inch wider and taller it would be perfect. On the whole, a great bath faucet. We are very happy with the purchase.
Tub spoutI love the spot and it's design, but it takes 45 minutes to fill up my tub through the narrow spout. I still love the design and don't want to change it out.
excellent qualityThis is a well made product that we use in combination of the bathtub faucet. It has the looks but not the expense of other high quality/name brand faucets.
