An Easy Mexican Beef Casserole Recipe
The word "casserole" actually refers to the baking dish used, rather than what is inside it, which means there are lots of different casserole recipes, rather than one way to make it, which varies slightly from dish to dish. This is an easy Mexican beef casserole recipe, which is prepared in layers and then baked for half an hour, resulting in a tasty casserole with bubbling cheese on top.
If you are feeding a family, you can double the ingredients and use two casserole dishes or a larger, deeper one. Mexican ground beef casseroles are a traditional Mexican food. This is an easy dish to make because once you have fried the beef and onion, you just need to arrange the ingredients in a casserole dish and bake it for half an hour.
Mexican ground beef casseroles like this one make a great dinner if you are looking for an alternative to meatloaf or another ground beef recipe. Beef is a popular meat in Mexico and this Mexican beef casserole is a real winner. The cheese, chilies, corn chips and other typically Mexican ingredients give it a wonderful flavor and texture and this recipe is hearty and filling.
This dish teams a variety of typical south of the border ingredients, such as beef, cheese, onion, chilies, corn chips, and tortillas, with cheese and chicken soups and milk, so if you imagine all those flavors together, you will see this dish is going to be meaty, creamy and slightly spicy, a good way of describing comfort food. Casserole is a kind of comfort food, especially when served piping hot from the oven on a chilly fall or winter evening. After assembling this casserole you need to bake it in the oven for half an hour, so use that time to prepare a side dish, perhaps a fresh salad or some corn on the cob to enjoy with the casserole. Then you can serve everything together at once.
- ½ onion, chopped
- 1 can evaporated milk
- 1 can cheese soup
- 1 can cream of chicken soup
- 3 ½ ounces diced green chili peppers
- 1 lb ground beef
- 6 tortillas, each torn in 6 pieces
- Handful of corn chips
- Handful of cheddar cheese
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- Oil for greasing
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
- Cook the chili peppers, onion and beef in a large pan until the beef is browned.
- Drain the excess fat. Add the soups and evaporated milk and bring to the boil.
- Grease an 11 x 13 inch casserole dish (or equivalent round dish) with cooking oil and layer the ingredients, so you will have a layer of tortillas, cheese, corn chips, and beef.
- Repeat these layers, ending with beef and finish with a sprinkling of cheese.
- Bake this Mexican casserole recipe for 30 minutes; making sure the cheese on top does not burn.
- The ingredients are already cooked so when the casserole is hot through, it is ready to serve.
- You can adapt this recipe any way you like, perhaps adding baked beans or diced carrot for some extra nutritional goodness!
Photo Description:
This creamy beef and cheese casserole is gently spiced and makes a lovely winter warmer. Serve it with your favorite Mexican side dishes and enjoy the authentic south of the border flavors it offers. Everyone in the family will enjoy this creamy casserole, and you will love how easy it is to put together. You probably already have most of the ingredients for it. Bake it in the oven for half an hour and during that time you can make any sides you want. If you have some left, you can microwave it the following day and treat yourself to a Mexican lunch. Some would say it is even nicer the next day.

0010 The Elephant by HeatherHowellArtWatch

Abstract. Painted this one as the sun was going down. Used it to bring out the highlights.
Daily DeviationGiven 2013-10-17
A beautiful blend of color and texture The Elephant by ~HeatherHowellArt ( Featured by ArtByCher )
Where was your mind at. It all fits, and it shouldn't. Great!!
It's always nice when they come together like this one, but I was definitely in a zone- switching colors non stop and using my fingers until it looked like what I wanted it to.
I think it's a great feeling when you step back and realize that it all fits. Except my problem has always been to keep going and try to make it better, only to look back and realize that I should have stopped. If you have a chance look at my stuff, and tell me truly what you think.
Wow!! Stunning colours Heather!!
very nice
Looks amazing! Excellent choice of colors and I really enjoy the texture
Congrats on the Daily Deviation!
Awesome job! thank you for this!
Beautiful work!
Are we allowed to use this as a texture? Or no?
I really like the colors.
I really like the colors.
Moossey I'm not sure what you are asking me?
I'm asking if using this deviation as a texture is allowed.
Like, copying and pasting it over digital art pieces with a filter like overlay. Here's a texture. www.deviantart.com/art/Waterco…

where's the elephant?
It's very pleasing to look at. I also like the ridges of paint created by the ("painterly") brushstrokes, which seem to outline the form.
Wonderful Blend of Colors !
Wow! It's so pretty
Oh wow, I LOVE these colors!! Congrats on the DD!!
feels like i got punched in the gut. oh yeah!
An elephant indeed
nice work

Dear Haverot,
As we start the 2015 new year, I want to thank you for your support and patience during the last year as our national office was making the move from New York and adjusting to California.
Change always brings challenges. We certainly have worked hard and done our best to make the transition as smooth as possible. With new systems in place, we are working more efficiently on all organizational levels. Na'amat USA continues to increase its visibility through a strong public relations approach utilizing our website, Facebook and YouTube as well as the more traditional press releases and e-blasts. Our updated membership software program paves the way for a more sophisticated method of staying in touch with members and non-member online donors With the help of the area offices and coordinators, we have started new clubs in several parts of the country. These clubs embrace a full range of interests and ages — college students, young professionals and retirees — all responsive to the unique message of Na'amat. We will be doing outreach in more communities during the coming year.
A major 2015 event is the Na'amat International Conference in Israel. The 40-member United States delegation will participate in the intensive week-long conference with Na'amat leaders and activists from around the world. Events include meetings with Na'amat Israel department heads, tours of Na'amat facilities — including the groundbreaking ceremony of a new day care center in Beersheva — as well as meeting with Israel government officials. Watch for news on our website (www.naamat.org), Facebook and in the next issue of Na'amat Woman.
Na'amat Israel continues to make its mark on Israeli society as it stands up for women. On International Day for the Prevention of Domestic Violence, November 25, 2014, the organization held two important events.
With the support of the Maccabi Tel Aviv basketball team, Na'amat Israel launched a campaign against domestic violence with the slogan "A real man does not raise his hand." At the Euroleague game with Alba Berlin in Tel Aviv, team members donned uniforms displaying the Na'amat logo and the campaign slogan. (Maccabi won.) The thrust of the campaign is to encourage abusive Israeli men to seek professional help early on. "Most of the men come to Na'amat only after a complaint is made against them to the police or after a legal sanction is imposed on them," said Na'amat Israel president Galia Wolloch. Na'amat has also made a brief film about domestic violence, which was televised and can be viewed on YouTube.
Another significant event was a special screening of "Gett: The Trial of Vivian Amsalem," the Israeli feature film documenting the painful five-year process of a woman struggling against her husband and the rabbinical courts to obtain a divorce ("gett" in Hebrew). More than 500 women attended the Jerusalem event, which was co-sponsored by the Israel Bar Association.
After the award-winning film was shown, Wolloch commented: "I often wonder how much gender equality is really worth in the working world or in the public sphere if, at the same time, in issues related to marriage and divorce it is still possible to take away a woman's independence and turn her into a captive of another person — her own husband…. Judaism is a way of life, and, consequently, the practice of halacha (Jewish law) cannot remain fossilized. With a little more courage and willingness, it will be possible to find solutions that correspond to the spirit of life today and are still within the framework of halacha. Many couples are already voting with their feet and staying away from the religious courts."
We are all aware that Israel continues to face difficult times, with threats from extremists in a volatile world. The situation makes our support all the more crucial in 2015. Our ongoing financial commitment provides assurance that Na'amat Israel will manage to meet the needs of Israeli citizens at every level of Israeli society.
A major milestone at home during 2015 is the celebration of Na'amat USA's 90th anniversary, starting in the fall. In honor of this exciting event, Na'amat USA has initiated a Research Fellowship Program, which will showcase our strong connection and history in helping to create, build and sustain the State of Israel.
As we welcome a new decade devoted to supporting our sister organization, Na'amat Israel, the national board is planning special events in cities across the country throughout the year.
My very best wishes to you and your families for a happy, healthy and more peaceful new year.
Elizabeth Raider

pyro shading test
this is another test with shading fluids. Density is emitted from a moving emitter and 3 different built in volume material are put on the smoke.
Houdini pyro – fire and smoke shader test
my first test with pyro. Only density is emitted and some of the vex pyro solver parameters are animated.
road collapse simulation
the road was procedurally modeled from a grid. The polygonal shape can be achieved with a divide node`s Compute Dual parameter. The delayed collapse is done by applying a mask field from a traveling sop cube on the gravity node.
A simple smoke simulation is added below the falling bricks.
Glass of water blast
my first more complex simulation.
glass was manually shattered because I can`t get the to work the shatter node.
Probably it has some expectations about incoming geometry, and can`t handle
complex concave stuff .
The fluid is a simple particle fluid simulation.
Just for fun
I did this with mixing a bunch of particles advected in a lowRes fluid smoke simulation. The rest is done with simple sop nodes; adding random point color, trail sop, creep circle along trail, skin circles. The colors are changed in post in nuke.
CHOP test
basic workflow:
– scattered points inside a sphere
– deformed the points with a magnet force going trough the sphere
– imported geometry to a CHOP network
– manipulated animation curves: noise, leg, etc…
– exported manipulated curves back to the points
– added particlefluidsurface to give fluid look
blog start
I started this blog to log my self-development in mastering sidefx Houdini to myself.

Healthy Holiday Tips
Enjoy the season by eating smarter, not less
By Lara Rondinelli, RD, LDN, CDE
The holiday season is upon us and with that comes busy days filled with hectic schedules, shopping, and holiday parties featuring many traditional calorie-packed foods and delicious desserts. The holidays can be a challenging time for a person with diabetes trying to control blood glucose levels and avoid weight gain. But, you can survive the holidays this year while still remaining healthy by eating smart and following a few tips.
- Experiment with your favorite holiday recipe by decreasing calories and using sugar substitutes. For example, if a recipe calls for cream cheese you can substitute light cream cheese while still obtaining a good- tasting product. There are also a couple sugar substitutes for baking, Equal™ Sugar Lite and Splenda Sugar Blend for Baking, that can be substituted cup for cup for sugar. These products are heat stable and are specifically designed to replace sugar in baking so you can dramatically decrease the carbohydrates and sugar in a recipe, while still having great flavor.
- Don't go to a party starving. When planning on going to a party in the evening, some people attempt to starve themselves during the day, but this can lead to overindulging due to extreme hunger and high-blood sugar levels. Although eating lighter during the day may be helpful, have a healthy snack, such as fruit or nuts, a couple of hours before the party so you aren't starving.
- Don't forget to exercise. Although the holiday season is very busy for most people, it is very important to continue with physical activity to help control blood sugar levels and burn those extra calories. A pedometer can be a useful tool to wear during this time. A pedometer is a small device that clips on to your pants and tracks how many steps you take per day. 10,000 steps per day has been found to assist with weight loss. Those long shopping days can help increase your steps, just remember to eat smart too.
- Treat yourself to your favorite foods in moderation. If your grandmother's sweet potato pie is your favorite dessert of the year, treat yourself to a serving and remember to count your carbs for that portion size. But, size up a meal beforehand and figure out which foods you like the most and which foods you'd rather not waste calories and carbs on eating. For example, bread with butter is something you can eat anytime of year, so if you can skip that at the Thanksgiving meal you'll be eating smarter. Remember that green salad and veggies can be great fillers without adding too many carbs or calories. Just watch the butter, cheese, and regular salad dressings that can sometimes accompany those foods.
- As always, enjoy some seasonal healthy foods. Sweet potatoes and cranberries are plentiful this time of year and they are packed with great nutrition. Sweet potatoes are a great source of vitamins A and C and they can be baked, mashed, grilled, or roasted. Roasting sweet potatoes in the oven at 400 degrees for 40-50 minutes is a great way to bring out their natural sweetness. Cranberries contain vitamin C, antioxidants, and only about 15 grams carbohydrate per one cup.

Generator Hostel LondonLondon, England
It's not a bad place. It's just that the room was so insanely hot that it was completely impossible to sleep. I finally gave up at around 03:00, and went down to the reception to make them turn off the oven, and they did. But since it had laden so ridiculously hot, it took a couple of hours for the room to reach a sleepable temperature (I actually burned my hand on the radiator trying to turn it down (which you can't), that's how insanely hot it was). Sleepless night? This is the place.

Hotel Estoril PortoPorto, Portugal
Our room was small and basic but alright; pretty clean and not too hot. The location was alright - close to some nice bars, although the walk from the city centre was a bit long. The staff did not speak English, and were not overwhelmingly friendly. 40 euros for a double room seemed to be a bit more than the average price for a room in Porto - at least we found better prices in better locations later on.

This was not Hotel Medusa, but it's terrible neighbour Hostel Mr. Beem. Make sure they don't send you there. One staff member only spoke berber. It was virtually impossible to communicate with him. Silly idea for him to work in the hotel business. Generally they seemed to had no idea what was going on - we were asked to change rooms twice in three days.

Actually, if we're talking hypothetically about a User directory file(s) issue... the User Library folder is the most likely place to find problematic user files. The other folders; Pictures, Music, Movies, contain almost exclusively media files, media files which is no way affect system wide performance, as they are not core files to the functionality of the application. This is not the case, nor does it make any sense to assume that.
The only exception to this are files like the iTunes library file, or an Aperture library file. However these files could only affect performance under iTunes and Aperture, would have to be corrupt or damaged, and are in no way related to any issue being described here.

Removing/renaming the ~/Library folder would probably do that, but it would also remove all the account's user preferences, application-specific settings, & everything else normally stored in that folder. It can be quite tedious to reset/reenter all of that.
I know. But there are people so desperate with Lion that reached the point to do a clean Lion install from an USB stick (I made one myself, it works. Or they buy an overcharged one from Apple), erasing the partition, creating a new user, reinstalling one by one all applications and then copying back all data from the old account(s).
Which, at the end of the story, is the only sure way to have a brand new Lion installation without all the junk we have left during the years from previous versions of OS X, old applications that didn't fully uninstall, old caches lost in the dungeons of the file system, wrong/corrupted parameters and preferences setting and all the likes.
Tedious? Very. But so is keeping facing weird bugs for the reasons mentioned above. To avoid such a long job the fastest solution, or the best compromize in terms of costs/benefits is to just move the Library folder. But you're right, I gave the hint in a hurry, I could have specified that the cleanest way to do it is to move the user Library folder after booting in single user mode. I just didn't feel like explaining everything in detail.
As much as you are correct saying that the best procedure for troubleshooting is to just move selected items from the folder to the Desktop or another folder and test. But this task requires quite some knowledge and was not the goal of the users that just wish to have Lion running clean as soon as possible. Investigating which setting is causing trouble is a task much more time consuming than just redefining all settings from scratch. Because, I wish this to be clear once for all, we were not talking about testing (something that I did before anyway and I know that there is more than a configuration file causing troubles in Lion) but about fixing.
Now, back to OS X being not Unix, is an Unix 03 certification enough for defining OS X an Unix OS?

I can't believe people still argue about user directory. It has been said several times that it won't help with memory leaks problems. A clean install won't help either.

It was never an argument about user directories. It was about a suggestion to try to diagnose the cause(s) of unusually high memory use and/or performance problems.
This is not necessarily about memory leaks, be they in the core OS routines or in specific apps. Keep in mind that the OS is supposed to use the RAM that is installed to hold data that might be reused. Thus, small amounts of free memory is not by itself a sign of any problem, even if it seems unusual. What is a problem is this affecting the responsiveness of the system, but there are several possible causes of that, some of which have nothing directly to do with how much free (which is unused) RAM is available.
The point of creating a test user account is to cleanly separate the system & user domains, which may (or may not) provide clues about performance problems. We know that not all users are having these problems & that the details of the reported problems vary. From that it is reasonable to assume that there is something local to the affected systems that is at least part of the cause(s) of these issues. In some cases, it may be something only Apple can fix. In others, it may be something the user can fix relatively easily, for instance by replacing a corrupted system file or trashing a user preference.
But without testing, it is just a guessing game that doesn't help anybody.

Both Systems Clean installed. Lion for the OS does use more memory and allocates it intentionally in case it is need to make things seem to operate quicker search the apple Kbase articles, I dont have it handy at the moment so I do apologize. However I know this cant be the case with Safari and the Safari Web content process. Safari even with 3 windows open or less without flash or any type of media or fancy css on the pages can consume up to 1gb of my memory just with Safari alone and not its web content process and then then webcontent proces swith take up usually a range of 150mb - 450mb. I would say it goes higher but Ive only seen that once and that was running a heavy flash page.
When Im not in safari, My machine is fine, Yet I did upgrade from 4gb to 8gb in this machine to try to help and the os just allocates more, and safari seems to find a reason to use more and more with less windows open. Firefox has been fine, Chrome is killing memory too. The App store and all its fanciness with web loaded content in the application tends to take up a ton as well.
Opening Applications in 32 bit mode by right clicking them in the application folder > get info> and then checking the box seemed to help before 10.7.1 but now safari still ***** up all the memory.
Adobe Air applications have been bad as well.. Yet that related to Adobe products like flash being resource hogs as well.
Has anyone experienced large Keynote files being open or Numbers documents taking up more resources than usual? This is just a question because I have had reports from users where I head up iOS and OSX Support.
Sidenote:This opens another issue that HTML5 video should be more videly adopted but its less secure with anyone being able to get it without a third party program. Apple needs to help out and come out with some new secure standards for HTML5 along with the current.

I have an early 13' mbp core i5 with 8gb of ram.
After upgrading to lion 10.7.1 i have less than 500mb available after just a few hours since i turn it on.
I must mention that the only running apps are: safari, mail, app store, ichat, ms excell and itunes.
Upon quitting excell, itunes, appstore and restarting mail and safari i still only get 1,5gb of free ram.
My suspicion is that there is another ram leak somewhere, or else i can't explain why my computer user 128mb of swap with 8gb of ram installed.
Whenever i restart or shutdown my mbp i always uncheck the option to restart all programs and such...
A fresh restart gives me 6.5 gb of free ram.

The OS is designed to retain data in memory for as long as it might be useful. Free memory is memory unused for anything -- there is no benefit whatsoever in the OS freeing up memory while it still might be reused. If you add more memory to the system the OS will use it -- that's what it is for.
Among other things, this means data from any web page you have visited may remain in memory even after you close that page & that some code loaded into memory during the launch of Safari or some other app may remain in memory even after you quit it. (This is why relaunching an app a short time after quitting it is often faster than launching it for the first time after a restart or after a longer interval after quitting it -- some of the code it needs may still be in memory, already initialized & ready to execute.)
If the OS did not do this, almost everything would take longer because much more code & data would have to be fetched from the HD, which takes many times longer than just switching retained memory pages from inactive to active.
So if your goal is to increase free memory, you are in effect trying to prevent the OS from using memory as efficiently as it can & trying to slow down its operation.
My suspicion is that there is another ram leak somewhere, or else i can't explain why my computer user 128mb of swap with 8gb of ram installed.
A 128 MB swap file is not unusual. The OS always creates at least one swap file, regardless of how much RAM is installed. It may use only a tiny fraction of the file's space, which is organized into pages of a few KB each & swapped page-by-page as needed, but it must reserve HD space for this "backing store" to prevent very bad things from happening if there is contention for HD space.
If you are having performance problems, check the page out numbers in Activity Monitor. If they are high, then you either don't hve enough memory for the apps you are running concurrently or you have a memory issue (which may or may not be a memory leak). But free memory numbers by themselves don't tell you anything about this.

Thanks for the broader explanation of "memory" and OS X, but you again refrain from elaborating more about the subject of page-outs. Excessive page-outs for anyone with 8 GB of memory has been inexplicable so far. I read that the way to tell if you need more memory is to compare page-ins vs. page-outs. If page-outs are more than 10% of page-ins, you need more memory. I went from 4 GB in Snow Leopard to 8 GB in Lion and my paging ratio has exceeded 30% on occasion (more than Snow Leopard). This is crazy, my machine's memory is maxed out. I never have more than 5 or 6 apps open simultaneously and never had any memory/ performance issues in 64bit Snow Leopard.

I think you rely too much on the saying "free memory is wasted memory". I don't know how in the name of God a web browser and few other small applications are allowed (allowed, not supposed) to fill 8GB (10-20 times the size of Encyclopædia Britannica?) of RAM in few hours. Actually they shouldn't be allowed to do that not even in few days. Like Snow Leopard never did to me. Lion memory management system is bizarre the least, and for sure less efficient than the Snow Leopard one.
Two days ago I reached the top: 2.7GB of pages out just playing Angry Birds! Having 3GB of total RAM. It went on forever. Also getting some nice funny messages in the kernel.log:

Having 100GB of free disk space the two messages in bold look like a big mess to me. I actually opened a bug report about it. Hopefully the ticket will get an update. Closed as duplicated would do. That would mean that Apple is investigating already the issue.
Anyway, 500MB of free RAM out of 8GB running few small apps makes little sense. 2.7GB of active backing store just running a web browser doesn't make any sense at all.
Mark Free Aug 29, 2011 9:58 PM

It would be an efficient way, if the system would release the inactive memory to applications that need more than the free memory has. But, unfortunately, it takes a pretty long time. Sometimes, up to several minutes of staring at the beach ball of death. And that's even without any page outs.
andreiil Aug 30, 2011 4:40 AM

What i find very odd is that I don't have any pageouts, and that high ram usage is totally random.
For example, today i've been using my computer for 5 hours and i still get 5.07 gb of free ram.
I use the same apps every single day... mail, safari, appstore, itunes, ms excell, and the number of open tabs or excell spreadsheets is roughly the same, as i read the same pages and review the same reports on a daily basis.
Sometimes it hogs up all the 8gb of ram memory and starts using and increasing size of swap file and some days it barely uses 3gb of ram...

If you don't have any page outs then you are not running out of available RAM for the processes your Mac is currently running & there is no reason for the OS to free up any of it. What may appear to be random RAM use is just a consequence of the OS not releasing chunks of it when there is no good reason to do so.
For instance, if a browser loads & initializes its code used to show a movie or display an image in any of the many formats it supports, tap into an RSS feed, or any of the many other things modern browsers can do, that code may remain in memory long after it was first used. If it did not, then every time any process needed to use that code it would have to be fetched from the HD again, dramatically slowing the responsiveness of the system.
There is no simple way for users to accurately determine what part of RAM is used for what process or when it should be freed up. RAM isn't used just for document data -- even a tiny JPEG file may require hundreds of MB of code & working space to decompress & render the image.
Sometimes it hogs up all the 8gb of ram memory and starts using and increasing size of swap file and some days it barely uses 3gb of ram...
What exactly do you mean by "swap file"? Do you mean the actual, normally hidden swap files created by the system or something displayed by Activity Monitor? If if is from AM, what is it labeled as?

It is labeled as "swap used", as you know already. That is the total amount of memory actually stored inside the /private/var/vm swap file(s). The same that iStat Menus reports. Also giving the total size of the swap files between parenthesis.
The point Adreiil was trying to make, which is the same it happens to me (again) lately, is that the way Lion manages the virtual memory is simply not deterministic. I have had no problems for a couple of weeks. Than recently, after upgrading Flash I started to have large chuncks of memory (4-500MB each) swapped out.
You keep repeating the theory of how the virtual memory management system should work in OS X Lion. And that is correct. For sure it is how it works in Snow Leopard but I very much doubt in Lion it has been implemented exactly in that way.
Where your description of virtual memory fails in Lion is that sometimes Lion simply does not release the active memory. That can be seen by mean of vm_stat, reporting the memory usage every 1s (which, contrarely to your belief, is a short enough time to analyze what it is happening): the free memory gets low, the acive and inactive memory raise. When the free memory goes below the low water mark the kernel starts paging out.
As you already know, before to start the resource's expensive job of paging out, the pager should first release the inactive read memory. That simply doesn't seem to happen. So, to save its beautiful cache of mostly useless read data it takes the road of writing on disk. Unless, sure, all inactive memory had been marked as written. At that point the page out would make complitely sense. What wouldn't make sense is why such large amounts of memory, mostly junk, have been marked for retention and not released already.
The virtual memory is not consistent in numbers. I had it twice now the case where my swap used raised to 2.8GB. Once from nothing to it. That is basically all the RAM in my system, wired memory (which can't be swapped out) excluded. Logic says that since only the inactive memory can be paged out (it's one reason why it's there after all) and since in my case it is always less than 1GB I shouldn't have more than 1GB of data paged out. Instead I get up to 3 times that amount. Not only that. Most of it didn't get released as free memory anyway. This in a session where the only high memory consuming application is Safari.
Now, we can argue as much as we like about what it is really going on inside the kernel. That at the end doesn't really matter. What it matters is that nearly 3GB of RAM paged out just running Safari is simply not acceptable. That didn't happen in Snow Leopard and doesn't happen when I use Windows 7 in the very same machine.
Last thing: you say that it is ok for Safari to retain the memory used by all pages. We are talking about more than 100MB per page in some cases, out of 1 or 2 MB of data retrieved from the Internet. Most of that memory should be working memory. With an average Internet connection it takes much longer to download a page than to load in memory the pieces of code needed from the disk, operation that can be (is) done in parallel. And most data must be rewritten anyway because the web is dynamic. So what would be the reason to keep that memory which is actually garbage? Masochism? It would just make the memory management totally inefficient. As it seem it does, actually.
William Kucharski Sep 1, 2011 8:17 PM
in response to Michelasso
Have you read Apple's own explanation of how Mac OS X handles VM and their note on how to read the information Activity Monitor provides?
In short, inactive memory contains cached data that, if needed, is much more quickly retrieved from the swap area than from the file system on-disk, the Internet, or any other store.
What Apple has yet to get precisely right is proactive freeing of inactive pages and quickly making those pages available to memory requests, and that's a long argument on the merits and demerits of Mach's externel pager mechanisms that is inappropriate for discussion here.
Michelasso Sep 2, 2011 2:42 AM
in response to William Kucharski
Yes, I did read it as much as I noticed that it is 3 years old. So pre Snow Leopard. And it doesn't work as you described. The inactive memory is the pool of processes pages that "got old" because not used recently, ready to be reallocated to the free memory by the dynamic_pager when needed. When are they needed? When the free memory goes below a water mark (God knows which, since Apple doesn't say anything about it).
So the page out should be zero as long as there is a minimum of free memory available. Often it isn't. Once it gets low the pager has to chose a chunck of inactive pages to be released. The ones that have been written must be paged out, because the processes may need them later. The read only pages (like the ones storing the code) simply gets reassigned to the free memory. They are not caches, they are actual proper memory belonging to the processes.
Now we can argue if it is better to release first the read only pages avoiding writing to the swap area when possible or to free the oldest pages no matter if they require to be paged out or less. And you're right, that is out of the topic here. What is not clear is why I've got a page out of nearly 3GB when just writing in this same forum. Basically all my memory. Or why 8 GB are still not enough to run some simple applications. Sometimes. Because for 2 weeks I had no issues whatsover. And in Snow Leopard I could have an uptime of weeks without any page out. So the question is: what did change in Lion? Is it a bug? A wrong design decision? Lion became inefficient? Where does the memory go? That's what I'd like to know and I am researching it as much as I can. To keep reading that it is fine as it is, is not an answer.

Edgy Exegesis
Advent Possible: Reflections on Luke 21:25-36
To prepare for Jesus' future Advent, we need to notice and respond to his current presence. We are pretty good at selective noticing. There are lots of situations that are already present and developing in our lives that we manage to ignore. We are pretty good at noticing what we want and ignoring what we don't. There are things happening right now as I write and as you read that we aren't noticing but that, eventually, will demand our total attention and immediate response.
Our children or grandchildren are growing up while we are preoccupied with adult responsibilities and anxieties. Soon they will stand nearly grown before us, and we'll wonder where the time went.
Conditions are occurring within our bodies with symptoms we may be ignoring that, one day, will demand our attention.
A relationship may be fading due to lack of attention. One day we may face its loss with surprise, because we didn't see it coming.
Climate change, economic crises, the rise of religious intolerance—things are happening, and it shouldn't just be the professional futurists who are taking note. There will come a time, if there hasn't already, when these developments demand our immediate and full attention.
On the positive side, there are relationships that beckon us and opportunities that are open to us that we may not be noticing.
Someone who can save us is coming—is already here, actually. But we must do our part. We must be alert and be at prayer (21:26), so that we are sprouting leaves and bearing figs as good fig trees should do at the end of summer. Noticing the presence of the one who is coming is a key skill that replaces other habits, like fainting from fear and foreboding or being caught in a trap of dissipation or anxiety (21:34-35). We are to stand up and raise our heads, for our redemption is drawing near (21:28).
Jesus did not give in to fear and foreboding. He sought strength for what lay ahead in prayer. At the end of this apocalyptic passage in Luke, we are told that, "Every day he was teaching in the temple, and at night he would go out and spend the night on the Mount of Olives." We would do well to follow his example in the weeks ahead.

School budget passes 2nd timeMay 01,2013MIDDLETOWN SPRINGS — By a 158 to 130 vote, residents approved a budget for the Middletown Springs School District.
Voters approved a budget of $1,994,899 for fiscal year 2013-14, an increase of $58,276, or 3 percent, compared to the current budget of $1,936,623.
"It was a much larger difference than I was expecting, but it really shows the community support we have for the school," said Kendra Larson, vice-chairwoman of the Middletown Springs School Board.
It was the second trip to the polls for Middletown Springs voters, who, on Town Meeting Day, defeated a proposed budget of $1,998,890, which was an increase of $62,267, or 3.2-percent.
Despite the increase in the budget, the tax rate is projected to drop 2 cents, from $1.64 to $1.62, due in part to the town's common level of appraisal rising from 91.2 percent to 95.85 percent.

Constructivism in Psychotherapy
Visit the APA Books homepage to browse or search for other books.
Constructivism is compelling thinkers across disciplines to consider some of our most deeply held but perhaps limiting beliefs about human nature and the nature of change. Constructivism in Psychotherapy provides a broad introduction to the principles of constructivist theory (and a helpful glossary for newcomers) as well as an in-depth exploration of constructivist practice involving a wide range of clinical problems encountered in day-to-day practice.
Offering perspectives that encompass diversity and rapid social change while acknowledging the primacy of meaning, language, self-agency, and novel experience in response to such changes, the book presents a refreshing blend of high-level theory and experientially grounded practice. An international panel of established leaders as well as new voices in this emerging field offer compelling metaphors for self, science, and psychotherapy. Therapy as a problem-dissolving system, therapy as rebiography and narrative reconstruction, and therapy as a laboratory for personal experiments are a few of the metaphors explored.
Practical methods of working within these metaphors free practitioners to conceive of their work in new ways while continuing to practice in ways that have always served them well. For example, ideas from the groundbreaking chapter on termination can be easily integrated into the practice of cognitive–behavioral, humanistic, and systems-oriented therapists, to name just a few. As the population of elderly persons grows, many of many of these individuals will be more open to psychotherapy than those of previous generations. The creative views of this stage of life offered in Constructivism in Psychotherapy will be of interest to all who practice with clients across the life cycle.
The first comprehensive book on constructivist psychotherapy, this volume invites practitioners and other behavioral theorists to consider their work, their clients, and their profession in ways that will compel, surprise, and perhaps unsettle them—sure signs that the book provides the kind of "novel experience" that leads to constructive change.

The author of over 150 articles and book chapters, he is currently attempting to refine methods for constructivist assessment, to develop a constructivist basis for psychotherapy integration, and to pursue empirical research on such topics as depression and suicide and the outcome of cognitive therapy. Neimeyer is coeditor, with Greg J. Neimeyer, of the Journal of Constructivist Psychology, and he serves on the editorial boards of a number of other journals. In recognition of his scholarly contributions, he was granted the Distinguished Research Award by Memphis State University in 1990.
