For 39 years, Southcentral Alaska anglers have been able to bring home two halibut of any size when fishing for one of the tastiest denizens of the deep. Fortunate fishermen were able to pack their freezers with dozens of pounds of filets from a single trip.
That's changing this year after the International Pacific Halibut Commission imposed what has been described as a one-and-a-half fish limit because one of the two halibut must be 29 inches or less -- a fish of about 8-10 pounds. The change is the result of a reworked catch-sharing plan that allocates more halibut to the commercial sector and away from sport charters. Southcentral anglers fishing from their own boats still have a two-fish-of-any-size limit.
The shift comes as Alaska's biggest sportfishing tournament, the 28th Homer Jackpot Halibut Derby, kicks off Thursday morning. Thousands of anglers participate; last year about 15,000 derby tickets costing $10 apiece were sold.
"I don't think it's going to slow the charters down," said Jim Lavrakas, executive director of the Homer Chamber of Commerce. "I don't. I'm hearing their bookings are up.
"What are you going to do? You're still going to want to get out and get fish for the freezer."
This year, though, flatfish anglers may encounter a bizarre new problem in the pursuit of a fish that can weigh more than 400 pounds -- hooking a halibut small enough to keep.
"Some of the guys who have fished already are finding it hard to find a fish under 29 inches," said Greg Sutter, a Homer charter captain and past president of the Alaska Charter Association. "They keep catching and throwing back fish that are too big."
Homer-based fishery biologist Scott Meyer with the Alaska Department of Fish and Game agreed. "That's a pretty small fish.
"I have no idea what the overall impact (of the new regs) will be. I've heard different things from a few charter people. One guy thought it would be difficult to maintain bookings."
Those bookings can cost from about $220 to upward of $300, according to Sutter.
This year's change is the second major shift in the Homer derby since 2011. Three years ago, in an effort de-emphasize catching and killing of big halibut, which are egg-bearing females, the Homer Jackpot Halibut Derby revamped its prize structure. Instead of a winner-take-all format that awarded the angler landing the biggest halibut of the summer as much as $50,000 or more (the exact amount depends on how many derby tickets are sold), the derby now offers a wider array of prizes, mostly for catching tagged halibut.
Since early May, derby officials have been catching, tagging and releasing 115 flatfish into Kachemak Bay.
Last year, 29 of the 115 tagged fish were caught, earning prizes ranging from $250 to a Ford F150 pickup worth about $30,000. There's also a fish wearing a $50,000 tag -- a fish that was caught last year by an angler without a derby ticket.
To increase the suspense, anglers who catch a tagged fish don't know what prize it signifies until the derby ends in September.
The chamber still awards a "jackpot" prize to the angler catching the biggest fish. Last summer, that was a 236-pound halibut worth $21,281 to Gene Jones of Bellevue, Iowa, who was fishing aboard David Bayes' charter boat, the F/V Grand Aleutian.
Whether anglers will be satisfied with their prize prospects remains to be seen. But clearly, they'll be bringing home less fish flesh. In addition to the new restrictions, the average size of sport-caught halibut has been plummeting for years.
Back in 1997, Meyer said, the average sport-caught halibut weighed 22 pounds after it was headed and gutted. By 2000, it was still 20 pounds. Last year, it was just 13.2 pounds -- "the lowest average weight we've ever had."
Meyer believes the charter fleet will adapt to the new rules, perhaps offering more half-day trips that are less expensive. "I don't think it's going to be all gloom and doom."
And if the past is any indication, the rules governing sport halibut charters don't change rapidly.
The governing International Pacific Halibut Commission enacted its first halibut sportfish regulation in 1973, establishing a three-fish limit, Meyer said.
By 1975, it was down to two fish of any size. And there it stayed -- until now.

Course: main course
Total time: under 1 hour
Skill level: Moderate
Cost: Inexpensive
Yield: Serves 4
- 14 ounces rump steak, trimmed
- ½ brown onion
- 1½ tablespoons fish sauce
- 1 star anise
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1 pinch ground white pepper
- 6 cups beef stock
- 10½ ounces fresh thin rice noodles
- 3 scallions, thinly sliced
- 30 Vietnamese mint leaves
- 1 cup bean sprouts, trimmed
- 1 small white onion, cut in half and thinly sliced
- 1 fresh small red chili, thinly sliced on the diagonal
- Lemon wedges, to serve
Wrap the steak in plastic wrap and freeze for 40 minutes—this will make it easier to slice. Meanwhile, put the brown onion, fish sauce, star anise, cinnamon stick, pepper, stock, and 2 cups water in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. Discard the onion, star anise, and cinnamon.
Cover the noodles with boiling water and gently separate. Drain and refresh under cold water. Thinly slice the meat across the grain. Divide the noodles and scallion among four deep bowls. Top with the beef, mint, bean sprouts, onion, and chili. Ladle the hot broth over the top and serve with the lemon wedges.

PHOTO: Even after two speeding tickets, Clowney poses with police
South Carolina defensive end Jadeveon Clowney has been ticketed for speeding twice in the last month, but that has not slowed his sense of humor one bit.
The Gamecocks star defensive end was allegedly clocked at 84 miles-per-hour in a 55 mph-zone on Thursday morning. Clowney already made headlines this month after getting ticketed for driving at 110 in a 70-miles-per-hour zone December 7.
Clowney may be facing hundreds of dollars in speeding tickets, but the future first round draft pick can still laugh about getting picked off by traffic cops twice in a month.

Called the Glosnass project, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev announced only last week that it would be "a major step in Russia's efforts to modernize its economic base."
Fred Weir reports, "The new Glonass is intended to serve both military and civilian needs, and will compete with GPS as well as the planned Chinese Compass system and the European Union's future Galileo positioning system."
The loss of the satellites is estimated at $500 million, but a spokesperson for the Russian space agency says that the GPS system is on track and 95% complete regardless of the loss.

Hello, I am writing a book and am looking for 10 illustrations for the chapter headings and possibly one more to split up the chapters, so maybe 20 total. I was wondering if you would allow me to use this picture? I will send you the book via email if you have publisher if you want an idea of what it would be in. This is for an independent project for my final in English. So, it would be a help. Thank you.
wow~! This is so cool~ I like the effect~ looks like something out of silent hill~ But silent hill's more messy~
I like the atmosphere~ So scary~
I like the atmosphere~ So scary~
One word...Zombie...
someone had lunch XD
something broke through that wall on the bottom left.. and mauled the first victim it saw at the top right.Tell me if im right
Ummm... Well, a woman was giving birth; suddenly her ex-husband came bursting out of the wall and tried to tackle her new hubby. She got very angry and started eating him. they had to drag her to the OR to get her sedated. Thats it.
The fist two things I though of were the games Fear and Condemned. It has that same feeling you get when you're in both games, and its' awesome.
that looks fantastic
creeps me out at thesame time.
could as well have been a scene in condemned

Sheesh. Doctors of today just can't cope with the demand of rabid apes.

My guess is that Mr47 has paid someone a visit...
Mmm, mysigt värre... Du är väldigt bra på att skapa stämning i dina illustrationer. Jävligt snyggt gjort!
Oy. Good concept and well executed.
Nice! This reminds me of the FEAR2 demo I tried out last weekend.

At last! Skype Desktop hasn't worked all year on my Windows8 laptop. From new the problem has been that once Skype starts if I touch anything (even volume level) then it just hangs. Even if you close Skype it still shows in Task Manager as 'not responding'. After many updates and uninstall and reinstall procedures I hoped the 8.1 update and bug fixes would fix it but actually got worse because Skype would never finish loading the home page. Now all seems good and operating the way it did on Win7. Thanks.
22-12-2013 16:32
Hey man, thanks! It kind of worked for me too! It got rid of the facebook stuff for me, although I still cannot seem to open Home...
But I have a question. What to do with the created folders? Just leave them there or should I delete them?

WARWICK, R.I. � The number of lawyers engaged in the lawsuit challenging the state�s 2011 pension overhaul is poised to swell.
The state has asked that virtually every Rhode Island municipality, school department, water authority, housing authority and even library board, with workers who pay into the state retirement system or have collective bargaining agreements with workers, be added as defendants in the lawsuit.
In motions filed Thursday, lawyers for the state argue that whether the half-dozen unions and retirement groups suing the state are successful in getting their reduced benefits restored, repercussions will affect virtually every community and scores of other entities with public sector workers. Therefore their interests must be represented as the lawsuit proceeds.
For instance, the lawyers contend, if the unions succeed in showing that benefits cuts were illegal and unnecessary, the impact could be so great on some communities �that it could result in some of the municipal entities filing for bankruptcy.�
And if the state succeeds in showing the cuts were constitutional and/or a necessary contractual impairment for a greater public purpose, that decision would affect how collective-bargaining agreements are interpreted.
�Consequently the municipal entities are indispensable parties and without their [participation], any declaration made in this litigation would be null and void,� the state argues.
Nineteen lawyers, not counting Administration Director Richard Licht, met Friday behind closed doors at Kent County Superior Court to discuss the state�s motions with Judge Sarah Taft-Carter.
After the hour-long meeting, Taft-Carter vacated the Sept. 15 date she had set earlier for the trial to begin, saying she would need time to hear arguments on the state�s latest motions, which also includes a request for a jury trial.
She suggested a July 1 date to hear the motion concerning whether the additional defendants should be added, and Aug. 5 to discuss the motion for a jury trial.
Plaintiff lawyer Lynette Labinger, representing Rhode Island Council 94, the state�s largest public employees union, said she had no immediate reaction to the motions.
�We just got them and are evaluating them,� she said.
Daniel Beardsley, executive director of the Rhode Island League of Cities and Towns, was in the courtroom Friday morning, hoping to learn more about the logistics of representing potentially scores of new defendants in the lawsuit.
Beardsley said there are more than 130 municipal entities that have members in the state�s Municipal Employees Retirement System.
�The big question is, how are these cities and [towns] and other entities going to defend themselves?� he said.
Beardsley said he was not sure whether adding the defendants to the suit would be good or bad for his members. And he questioned how long that could delay a trial.
He said that when he asked attorneys whether the league could represent the cities and towns, some said yes, some said no.
Lawyers representing state interests declined to comment about the latest development as they were leaving the courtroom, saying that as far as they knew, they were still prevented from talking about the case by a gag order imposed by Taft-Carter.
Earlier this month Taft-Carter rejected a request by both sides to postpone the trial until February, citing the complexity of the case.
The trial is considered an early round to the ultimate question of whether the state can constitutionally cut retirement benefits. Whatever side loses is expected to appeal to the state Supreme Court.

paragraph of info about the Kensai, is a nice large photo.

just got back from the Audio & AV show, I am pleased to say that it
went very well indeed. We received many comments that the Kensai and
modified DEQ were delivering some of the best sounds at the show. This
was only made more impressive by the small size of the Kensai and our
use of a 15 year old Cyrus 3 amp and DAD7 transport as partnering
equipment! I would like to thank Robert Holt who helped all weekend,
purely from the kindness of his heart. A thanks also to Paul Messenger
and his wife, with whom we enjoyed a good drink and swapped some music
in the evening. Thanks to Nik Marina and Adam Smith from Hi-Fi World
for their support. Finally a big thank you to the lady on Sunday
afternoon who requested some Barry White and promptly got goose bumps!
1/08/08 AudioSmile will be exhibiting at the Audio & AV show at the Park Inn hotel in Heathrow. The show date is September 19th-21st, and we will be in Syndicate room 23.
At the show we will be launching our brand new product the 'Kensai'.
This is an incredibly small loudspeaker, with unbelievably good sound!
This will be the first time AudioSmile has exhibited at the show
directly, and the first time anyone has heard the Kensai. It will be a
listening experience to remember!
Our bespoke made supertweeters have been very successful since they
were launched last year. Thank you to everyone who showed interest. We
are now making them with a leatherette body, which looks very smart
indeed. They are available in black or white as standard, and other
colours for a small amount extra. A few of the wooden supertweeters
still remain for a time, so if you specifically want these please let
us know.

Let's just come out and say it -- Valve dropped the ball with its Steam Machine initiative. Rather than let its hardware vendors run with their own brand Steam Machines that they've been developing for the past year,
Valve decided to delay things
until next year while it tweaks its Steam Controller, an integral component of any machine that might use the "Steam Machine" designation. That decision left OEMs and boutique system builders in an awkward place, but rather than let their hardware designs collect dust, we're seeing them reborn as Windows-based PC/consoles that boot right into Steam Big Picture mode.
The newest PC/console to take this approach is CyberPowerPC's Syber system
. Let's have a look.
Syber is similar in design to what would have been CyberPowerPC's Steam Machine if Valve didn't muck things up. Turning lemons into lemonade, CyberPowerPC plans to develop Syber around Windows 8.1, though when you turn the console on, it will boot directly into Steam Big Picture mode so you can begin gaming in your living room on your big screen HDTV.
There will be two base versions to choose from. The first starts at $600 (MSRP) and will include an AMD quad-core CPU, AMD Radeon R9 270 graphics card, 4GB of DDR3 memory, and 500GB hard drive (SATA 6Gbps, 16MB cache, 7200 RPM). CyberPowerPC's second option costs $100 more and will include an Intel Core i3 4150 CPU, Nvidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti graphics card, 8GB of DDR3 memory, and 1TB hard drive.
We had a chance to meet up with CyberPowerPC at E3 to see the Syber console in person and talk in depth about its design and features. Have a look, and then check out our photo gallery below!

Now an academic focusing on issues of urban education and school reform, Dixson taught in the New Orleans public schools from 1991 to 1995, and has family in the region.

State Board Of Education Asks For More Money By Amanda Vinicky • Jan 21, 2015 isbe.state.il.us Even as Illinois runs ever shorter on cash, the board of education is asking for $730 million increase in state funding. Illinois' superintendent of schools is well aware of the state's financial strain. Christopher Koch has been in charge as over the past several years, the state has failed to come through with all the money it's supposed to give to meet local district's basic needs. But, Koch says, "education is the smartest investment we can make in the economic future of our state." Bill Sets Criteria For State Takeover Of Failing School Districts By Dusty Rhodes • Jan 13, 2015 WUIS/Illinois Issues Just before leaving office yesterday, now-former Governor Pat Quinn signed a slew of bills. One of those bills spells out when the state can take over a school district. Before this bill became law, the Illinois State Board of Education was theoretically required to intervene when any school district spent at least three years on the academic watch list. That's about a hundred districts, but the board has neither the resources nor the desire to take such drastic action in so many schools. Editor's Note: Tax And Pension Fix Won't End Illinois' Budget Crisis By Jamey Dunn • Nov 19, 2014 mattpenning.com 2014 / WUIS/Illinois Issues Listen to Dunn's interview about her column with Rachel Otwell: Sexual Assault: The Nationwide Campus Crisis Hits Home In Illinois By Tara García Mathewson • Nov 1, 2014 Veronica Portillo Heap became an advocate for sexual assault survivors as a sophomore at the University of Chicago. She got an email from a group of students organizing The UChicago Clothesline Project, which offers survivors a chance to tell their stories on T-shirts in an annual art installation. Portillo Heap was not a survivor herself, but she thought getting involved as an organizer with The Clothesline Project would be worth her time. Missed Any Of Our Education Specials? Find Them Here By WUIS • Sep 25, 2014 Stephen Smith The Science Of Smart Schools across the country are trying new ways to teach based on brain science. Teachers say current techniques are failing, but new approaches can help students learn more deeply. Until recently, we didn't know much about the best ways to learn. Now that's changing. Over recent decades, experts working in cognitive science, psychology, and neuroscience have opened new windows into how the brain works, and how we can learn to learn better. Tell Us About Education on Sat. Sep. 27 Dan LoGrasso / WUIS REGISTER TO ATTEND Residents are encouraged to share what they see as the top education issues affecting Illinois at the next WUIS/Illinois Issues Forum on Education September 27, 4:00 - 5:30 p.m. The forum will be in the WUIS Suggs Performance Studio on the UIS campus. 100 Groups Join Together To Push For Illinois Education Revamp By Associated Press • Sep 15, 2014 flickr/LizMarie_AK Nearly 100 organizations are joining together to pushIllinois lawmakers to pass a school funding reform proposal in the spring. Funding Illinois' Future members include community foundations, civil rights organizations, school officials, and business and education reform groups statewide. All support the passage of a school funding proposal sponsored by Democratic state Sen. Andy Manar of Bunker Hill. The legislation would overhaul Illinois' dated school funding formula, first put in place in 1997. While there's wide agreement that the state's funding Rauner Releases Education Plan By Associated Press • Sep 9, 2014 brucerauner.com Republican gubernatorial candidate Bruce Rauner outlined an education reform plan Monday that touched on teacher merit pay, overhaulingtenure and changing the state's school funding formal, but the proposal didn't contain specifics on what exactly he would change or how he would accomplishthem. The venture capitalist said his ideas would help create ``world class schools''and he vowed to increase school funding in the first year if he wins officewithout raising the income tax or property taxes. He said he wanted to change Just a Dollar: Not Since 2009 has the State Allocated Funds for Homeless Education -Well, There's $1 By Maureen Foertsch McKinney • Sep 1, 2014 WUIS/Illinois Issues For Kaleyah Wesley, thoughts of her family's life in a Chicago homeless shelter made it difficult to focus on school, particularly in math, the subject she found hardest. The then-sixth-grader woke at 5 a.m. on weekdays to take a pair of trains from the north side Rogers Park shelter to her school in the North Lawndale neighborhood, which is on the west side. She says she had a negative attitude that rubbed off on her three younger siblings. Race & Education: The Real Issue is About Justice By John W. Fountain • Sep 1, 2014 "Once you learn to read, you will be forever free." — Frederick Douglass The balls in this Illinois lottery bounced inside a clear bowl as the number-holders anxiously watched. I was among them in a middle school commons in Matteson, a south suburb of Chicago. Our daughter's number was 10. But would it be our lucky number tonight? New Test, New Stress: Exam Promises Headaches as Schools Adjust to Common Core's Latest Challenge By Tara García Mathewson • Sep 1, 2014 WUIS/Illinois Issues Benjamin Churchill has been spending extra time with his daughter at the computer lately. Quinn, 8, will be taking her first state exam this school year, and unlike the tests her dad took, this one won't require a No. 2 pencil. Restorative Justice: Racial Bias in Expulsions & Suspensions Spur a New Look at School Discipline By Brian Mackey • Sep 1, 2014 WUIS/Illinois Issues If a student happens to have been born black, he's three times more likely to be suspended or expelled than his white classmates. That statistic comes from the U.S. Department of Education, and it's often repeated by people who favor changing the way students are disciplined. But as with all averages, it obscures the rough edges that become apparent only when looking more closely at the numbers, and Illinois has some of the roughest edges around. No School For Kids On Election Day By Amanda Vinicky • Jul 18, 2014 wikimedia Illinois students could get a day off of school come election day. Schools are often at the heart of a community, metaphorically, if not literally. That's part of the reason they've long been voting sites. But with shootings at schools across the country, some lawmakers are concerned the practice is dangerous. Most of the time visitors need to sign in before entering a school; they say allowing anyone in on election day is asking for trouble. Legislation Would Make Charter Schools Follow State Law On Special Ed, ELL By Brian Mackey • Jun 5, 2014 The Illinois General Assembly has approved legislation intended to make charter schools follow state laws for special education. But some lawmakers see this as the latest attack on charter schools. Charter schools already have to follow federal laws on special education and for students who are just learning English. But according to the Illinois State Board of Education, a "handful" say they were exempt from stricter state requirements. Doing Right by the Kids: An Agreement Seeks to Improve Conditions, Care of Youth in Custody By Caitlin Rydinsky • Jun 1, 2014 Illinois Department of Juvenile Justice Special monitoring visits to the Illinois Department of Juvenile Justice recently found youth detainees mowing lawns and building shelves rather than attending educational courses. Monitors discovered youth being given medication with inadequate consent and living in rooms that were improperly maintained. Facilities were found to lack the proper staff to treat juvenile offenders with mental illnesses. Multimedia Journalist - Education Dan LoGrasso / WUIS Category: Academic Professional Title: Multimedia Journalist-Education at WUIS Location: Springfield Close Date: 05/30/2014 End and Means: One Plan to Change School Funding Shines Without Pizzaz By Charles N. Wheeler III • May 1, 2014 WUIS/Illinois Issues As the Illinois General Assembly girds for what everyone hopes will be the final month of its spring session, the spotlight is on a handful of high-profile issues, topped by crafting a budget for the 2015 Fiscal Year that starts July 1. Key to budget-making, of course, is whether lawmakers heed Gov. Pat Quinn's call for keeping in place current income tax rates, now scheduled to roll back on January 1. Allowing the rates to drop dramatically would lead to "extreme and radical cuts" in education and other core state services, the governor warned in his March budget address. Wait Continues For Schools' Fate Under Proposed New Formula By Amanda Vinicky • Apr 21, 2014 Amanda Vinicky Illinois lawmakers are considering a major change to the way local schools get money from the state. But information about how individual school districts would fare in the new system won't be ready until just before the end of the spring legislative session. Illinois' schools are primarily funded by local property taxes, which means that there's a big disparity in how much money is spent on a student depending on her zip code. Illinois Finally Gets 'No Child Left Behind' Waiver By Brian Mackey • Apr 18, 2014 flickr/LizMarie_AK After more than two years of trying, Illinois has finally won a waiver from the federal education law known as No Child Left Behind. Brian Mackey reports on what this means for schools in Illinois. The short answer is not much. Illinois has already been moving beyond the No Child Left Behind law for some time, even as it waited for permission from the federal government. Matt Vanover, a spokesman for the Illinois State Board of Education, says there were problems with No Child Left Behind. Pages1 2 3 next › last »

Anjulie, opening for Raphael Saadiq on Monday at Showbox at the Market in Seattle, has a self-titled debut album with soul-baring lyrics against a delightful mélange of pop-braced genres.
It's the stuff of every musician's fantasy: You make it big and return home triumphant to a parade and a renaming of some building or day in your honor.
Well, you hope.
"I went back to my hometown, hung out with my best friend from middle school, and we drove to the most suburban Starbucks we could find and bought [my] record," 26-year-old singer Anjulie said. Nobody blinked. "I was like, 'It's me,' and they're like, 'OK.' "
She laughs with the recognition of someone very much aware of the slow climb of the music industry. She may have an MTV Video Music Award nomination, a song on the new "Fame" soundtrack and a distribution deal with Starbucks' Hear Music label, but she is still the tour opener. More specifically, she's opening for R&B singer/producer Raphael Saadiq, kicking off their tour at the Showbox at the Market Monday.

- Examining if the Seahawks would be a good fit for Matt Forte

- Woman's throat cut in South Lake Union assault; man arrested
- Building with iconic Seattle P-I globe sold for $40M
Most Read Stories
But check back at that Toronto-area Starbucks in the near future, and those counter girls might just be singing along with Anjulie's first single "Boom," a swinging, brassy Nancy Sinatra throwback with a hook so tasty you'll lick your fingers (its video is the one that got Anjulie her VMA nod).
With soul-baring lyrics pitted against a delightful mélange of pop-braced genres, Anjulie's self-titled debut shows a lot of promise, maturity and loads of fun.
Her breathy croon puts her in the same camp as Lily Allen or Nelly Furtado, with a touch of Amy Winehouse swagger. But she's just as comfortable with retro-soul as she is a sugar-sweet piano ballad or a beat-laden pop hit.
Stew-potting genres seems like something every artist is doing nowadays. But Anjulie's many influences are ingrained.
Though she grew up in Canada, Anjulie's (her full name is Anjulie Persaud) parents are from Guyana, and her grandparents emigrated from India. Her childhood was spent honing her songwriting listening to calypso, '50s London post-Motown, Radiohead, Jeff Buckley, Lauryn Hill, Missy Elliott and Alanis Morissette.
Like Morissette, Anjulie has a penchant for unrequited-love songs. She's never had a boyfriend, but she takes ample inspiration from the men who happen to cross her path.
"It's only hard to sing live when the person I wrote about is in the audience," she said. "But once I'm on stage, I'm almost like an actor. I come across very confident and sexy and the whole thing — or that's what I've been told — but in real life I'm a totally socially awkward kind of geek."

Lovely work of Liz Taylor.
I really love how you did the shading on this work; very classic and brings an elegant look. I love how you did the shiny effects on her top and on her earring. Also, I really like how you apply some details on her especially on her hair.

You did a very wonderful job on your work, keep it up.
I love it! ... But if I could just make one tiny suggestion ... I would add a hint of violet to her eyes. I would totally leave the rest in gray scale but I just think that would really make it "pop," especially since that was one of her most striking features.
Wow. This is really cool Very nice job
honestly...this is probably one of my favorites of yours
wow. now there is a legend!

Shanter - bitter much? Wow. Then why didn't YOU make a cool tutorial and share it with us? Who cares if it already existed, this was very nice of her to lay out the photos, etc. I am grateful for those who share their techniques. I live in Mexico and don't speak Spanish completely, so online tutorials are all I have.

The Sacredness of Nature Theology of Ecology Pushes Respect for the Environment
Patricia Rice Post-Dispatch Religion, St Louis Post-Dispatch (MO)
Do you consider it doing God's work when you take this newspaper to a recycling center? Or when you toss banana skins and grass cuttings into a backyard mulch pile? Or when you shop for a used table instead of a table made from tropical wood from diminishing rain forests? Or when you house-hunt for a newly built house in town rather than on fields where corn grew last summer?
Some theologians are developing a theology of ecology that calls for a wholesome enjoyment and respect for the sacredness of the natural world and bodily existence. The theology of ecology, and practical ways to live it, were discussed at a recent International Earth Summit in Ruma, Ill.
Farmers have often pointed to Bible texts requiring people to be good stewards of the land so future generations could harvest it. For three decades, religious leaders have criticized agribusiness owners and industrialists who disregard these commandments.
It's different now, says a leading theologian of the ecology. For the first time in human history, we have an "embryonic awareness" that Earth cannot support our style of life indefinitely, said John F. Haught, of Georgetown University in Washington and author of the book "The Promise of Nature and Cosmic Purpose."
"If we want a theology capable of responding to the full dimensions of the ecological crisis, we must learn once more to revere the natural world for showing forth to us the sacred reality that underlies it," he said at the Ruma gathering.
Christians can begin by putting fresh emphasis on the biblical creation, he said. When Christians stress redemption exclusively, they can exaggerate the "fallenness" of nature, he told the seven-day gathering of 50 nuns from 12 countries at the motherhouse of the Adorers of the Blood of Christ, in Ruma. Voices echoed their Polish, Italian, Latino and Indian homelands.
A leading Polish environmentalist who spoke at the summit said looking at ecology from a spiritual view can galvanize her nation's resolve to respect the land, air and water.
"We want to learn from the West's mistakes and not repeat them," said Anna Kalinowska, director of the University of Warsaw's Center for Environmental Studies. She helped her Catholic parish and a rural community organize two environmental model houses and a farm to help Poland leap from the 1940s agriculture, where it languished under Communism, to a safe environment. Visitors at the model houses are reminded that the earth reflects God's glory.
Because her country had limited chemical fertilizer under Communism, Poland has abundant, chemical-free farmland. Many farms flourish because they meet European hospitals' standards for growing organic food. Still, she fears that a rush to meet other European Union standards may reduce agricultural diversity. Farmers may stop breeding some animals. The wielkopolske, a fierce-looking, black-spotted pig, for example, would not likely meet European Union ham standards. …

Scala's Option class has an
orNull method, whose signature is shown below.
orNull [A1 >: A](implicit ev : <:<[Null, A1]) : A1
I'm bewildered by the implicit thing. Would somebody please explain how it can be used, ideally with an example?

I'm bewildered by the implicit thing. Would somebody please explain how it can be used, ideally with an example?
To explain the implicit thing: orNull is a way of getting back from the Some|None idiom to Java's value|null idiom (which is, of course, bad). Now only AnyRef values (instances of classes) can accept a null value.
So what we would have liked is
I think the use of A1 is not strictly required here and is because orNull uses getOrElse (where the default given can be a super type of A)
According to this,
Implicit parameter checks, if the boxed value is nullable.
Good usage example can be found right in the comments to
Remember that in Scala primitive types and reference types are unified - but only reference types are nullable. The implicit simply allows the compiler to confirm that A1 is a reference type.
To understand why it is useful, IttayD provided a nice explanation:
In summary, type constraints are useful when you want have methods (eg
This is another "feature" that is not built into the language but comes for free thanks to implicit parameters and variance annotations of type parameters. To understand this, look at the definition of
the compiler looks for an implicit value of type
However, for
we are lucky. Now, the compiler tries to find an
As mentioned, the most intuitive way to think about type constraints is reading it like a type bound (i.e. reading it as Null <: Int).
By the way, here is another related answer.
Re : 'how' is this used - one place we are finding this useful is when dealing with java api mappings where
