Comments about Baltimore Orioles MLB White And Black 59FIFTY Cap:
I'm not a huge mlb fan, but I can get CHARLOTTE ORIOLES text in Arial font in black stitched right under the oriole logo on the hat to rep the former Minor league baseball farm team of the baltimore orioles from 1976 - 1987 the charlotte o's from charlotte nc
some notable charlotte o's players that made their fame in b'more
eddie murray 1976
mike boddiker 1979
cal ripken 1980
this hat has the basic mlb 5950 design and a plain clean look of the cartoon bird that charlotte used as well.
AND theres space to stitch charlotte orioles under the oriole
charlotte o's used this logo from 1976-1978 or so
so it doubles as a throwback major league and minor league baseball hat because it has the charlotte orioles text and same old logo while also has the mlb logo and is a mlb b'more hat not a milb charlotte hat.
reps charlotte my city, reps my love for charlotte sports history, reps my fav mlb team, and my second favorite city Baltimore Maryland.
ah what a nice city!

Series creator Joss Whedon took a somewhat familiar concept (science
as the new "wild west frontier") and freshened it up with a lively,
chemistry-rich cast of characters, a richly detailed, plausible and
interesting social setting, a dash of excitement, classic science fiction
"find the better part of humanity" ideals, a goal to avoid or make light
most of the tired and worn-out genre cliches and a fantastic production
team. The resulting product? An excellent piece of original artful
entertainment that was a breath of fresh air in the stagnating science
fiction scene on television (or anywhere else).
Today, where is Firefly? Canceled after airing about 11 episodes, out of order, of the mere 13 episodes contracted. Why? Fox executives considered the ratings to be "abysmal." Were they? This may be subjective. At the time, Fox was (and still is) pushing almost costless, content-free exploitative "reality television" (such as Joe Millionaire) and formula-reuse "genre simulation" eye candy (such as "John Doe"). In comparison, Firefly, with film quality special effects, a full cast, directors, writers, editors and so forth likely looked to be a much smaller payout. After all, television in the USA is not about art or entertainment; it is about making as much money from sponsors as possible.
Fox didn't think that the Firefly pilot was "exciting" enough. Joss Whedon made some changes to address their concerns. Then Fox didn't even bother to SHOW the pilot until the very last airdate of Firefly, prior to cancellation ("tonight's special: two hour celebration of the cancellation of Firefly!"). Promotion of Firefly was half-hearted at best. On a channel that tells its viewers "Hey, who needs drama?" is there any chance that the marketing people even know HOW to promote something other than sitcoms and exploitative reality shows? Fox is basically telling its own audience that it doesn't like its own programming, so why should people watch it??
As we face the homogenization of television content, Firefly was a brilliant spark of newness and excitement for those of us (the few) in the television audience that desire thought-provoking story-telling and entertainment that actually requires a viewer's mind to be active instead of blank. To some of us, the outcome was never really in question; how could something this good survive on networks (and with advertisers) that believe the lowest-common-denominator is their ideal target?
Knowing the likely outcome, the failure of Firefly hurts all the more because of just how good it actually was in such a short amount of time.
It wasn't about the space ships; it was about the life lived in and around them. It wasn't about the aliens (there weren't any); it was about the people. It wasn't about the struggle between the evil bad-guys and the super heros; it was about the daily struggle to BE a "good-guy" in a world filled with people who often didn't try very hard and the fact that sometimes the heros are just regular people afterall. It wasn't about the sex; it was about the attitudes people have about sex. It wasn't about the profits; it was about selling a good product and deserving the profits.
It is quite telling to see what kind of programming thrives in this economy and what kind of programming gets a sharp stick in the eye. If we are to believe the executives of Fox and other networks, the viewers of television in the USA are unintelligent, selfish and naive automatons that are only capable of being entertained by programs that exploit the failures, ignorance and stupidity of others.
What if they're right?
Luckily, we have the "hard-core" groups of fans to remind us that there are indeed a few active brains seeking stimulation out there. Not to say that all science fiction fans are the best of humanity, it is easy to see that they spend a little more time considering narrative and consequences of actions.
The fans of Firefly funded, organized and accomplished an advertisement in Variety magazine to support Firefly. Yes, that's right. The fans bought advertising for their favorite show.
Though it warmed the hearts of the Firefly production team, Fox wasn't impressed. Such groups of fandom are considered fringe and insignificant when compared to the mighty marketing numbers. Still, you have to admit, there must be something good about a show when the fans purchase advertising in major publications to support it.
The fans still hope that Joss Whedon gets another open-minded network to see that Firefly has great potential as a successful, revenue-generating series. Whedon's previous exploits, the highly successful "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" series and its spin-offs, started with a similar "abysmal outlook" but another network had the foresight to give it a healthy chance when Fox was too eager to give up after not seeing instant success and profit after a handful of out-of-order showings. They didn't even bother to show all 13 episodes completed. Maybe someone at Fox's accounting departments ought to make note that it's a waste of resources to pay for episodes and then do nothing with them.
The chance of recovery isn't good. People move on in search of more employment when the project they were on has been killed. The landscape of television business today has a tendency to portray intelligent programming as "unsuccessful" and "profit-less." Joss Whedon's past successes seem not to matter much to networks hell-bent on making huge profits on zero-product (much like the dot com explosion that ended spectacularly badly years back).
Networks say they are giving the audiences what they want. It may be more accurate to suggest that networks are limiting the audience's ability to choose anything other than what they're given. It's not likely that everyone will simply turn off the TV and go read a book in protest, is it?
Back to Firefly: If you like smart science fiction (or just smart fiction in general), well drawn characters and worlds, Firefly would have been a great show to escape into every Friday night as you relax from the daily rituals of work and responsibility. Too bad it never got much of a chance to entertain us.
With the failure of Firefly at the hands of businessmen and executives who do not even like to watch their own programming, it is clear that the "future Joss Whedons" of television will have a harder time selling their projects to the networks. The result? There's plenty more where "Joe Millionaire" came from; there are countless other profit-seeking formulas that are taking the place of intelligent programming everywhere, calling themselves "Entertainment."
When I first saw it on Fox, I didn't really like it.
As a huge Buffy fan, I had to give it a chance, so I watched most of its original run. I grew to like it more and more, but I wasn't too upset that it was cancelled. I didn't allow myself to get hooked cause I knew it wouldn't last anyway. But, I must admit, when I finally saw the 2-hour pilot, "Serenity", I was really fond of the show and realized how badly it had been screwed by Fox.
I got the DVDs for Christmas. I started with "Serenity" and watched every single episode (a regrettably short 15 hours of television) in a couple of weeks. I finished today, and I started over again. When seen the way it was supposed to be seen, this show is fabulous! Damn! Now, I'm hooked and it's over. Great.
The cast is amazing. It doesn't hurt that Joss is behind the show. He has a real talent for dialog and established their characters beautifully for them.
And the camera work! It brings a realism you just don't expect from Science Fiction. More harsh, realistic lighting and camera angles that make you feel like a spy on the action. A totally different direction from shows like Farscape (brilliant in it's own direction for surrealistic and slick camera and lighting work), it shows the future as gritty and human, rather than the sterile, alien feel of most science fiction.
This show was a gem, something really brilliant, that was shafted by Fox (there's a shock. Fox has always been such a caring network. /sarcasm).
At least we have a theatrical movie to look forward. Go and see that when it comes out! Maybe then the series will find a new life.
First off I should say that I only watched this as I read it had replaced
Dark Angel (which I kind of liked, first series anyway) and wanted to see
it was any good. Anyway, I've just finished watching the last episode of
Firefly here in the UK, and I am thoroughly appalled that this series has
been cancelled. The ONLY bad things I can say about it is that
*occasionally* the western parts seemed a bit contrived, and that I never
really got to identify with some characters much (Wash and Preacher
For the first point, it's not nearly as bad a mix of sci-fi and western as some people comment on. I suspect they haven't really watched it as it usually works very well. For the second point, I'm sure that I would have gotten to know the other characters better in the future as the story developed. The characters (and actors) in this series were fantastic as individuals and as a team. They are a real credit to Firefly and helped make it seem real, generate emotion, humour and occasionally despair. Nathan Fillion above all surprised me as I'd never seen him as an actor before (I've never watched Buffy much), and he's simply fantastic. Believable from the first episode and acts out Mal's great strengths and flaws of character perfectly. The rest of the cast support (and occasionally take the lead) very well.
As for the rest, the stories were very good and usually inventive despite staying in the supposedly cliched sci-fi and/or western domain, every episode has laughs, some have a few tears. The effects are generally not too bad (some bits really nice, others a bit ropey - nothing an improved budget wouldn't have fixed). Even the title music (by Whedon!) is fantastic. I watch most things recorded and normally fast forward past the titles (Babylon 5 excepted).
Bottom line is that above all it's a shame it was canned. It was a great series, had *real potential* to be a blockbuster (I doubt that many TV execs thought that a vampire hunting female would be so popular), and was easily the best debut series I've seen in the sci-fi/drama genre (even the mighty Babylon 5 took a while to get started). For it to have failed ratings means that people inside Fox need sacked for not doing their job properly, due to bad planning, bad promotion, and for being so stupid that they can't see a good show or even potential even if it is the best in the 'Verse.
The fact that Whedon thinks strongly enough of Firefly to do a film version (and can get the backing to do so) should be a wakeup call to the top level bosses that those under them aren't interested in quality or investing in potentially hit series, they are only reacting to immediate ratings despite the fact they influence them badly by getting their programming all wrong.
While I'm only too happy to see a film version, the production values of the series were so high that it's really just going to be a higher budget longer episode (albeit more polished), when all I (and many others) want to see is a new series. I really hope that the film springboards the series back, but I'm not holding my breath...
Firefly is like no other television program. Only lasting one year,
with episodes randomly thrown on strange nights on FOX, this series
boasted a classic combination of science fiction with a western flair.
How could it go wrong? A humorous program that had fun, fought bad
guys, and harbored extremely dark secrets. Why did it only last one
season? Marketing. FOX, as we all can learn from my review of Outfoxed,
is not quite the "fair and balanced" type of programming that it
promotes, but instead attaches itself to the hottest trend and pushes
it nearly to the point of sickness. For those that would disagree, I
ask you to check out how many predictable seasons of American Idol we
will have to endure until someone realizes that it lost its steam a
many a moon ago. Or how about the disaster of a series called Wife
Swap? Honestly, did FOX just ignore the idea of creativity and push
directly for insulting "reality" television? From what I see on
television today, I could only assume the answer to be "yes". Firefly
was a bold, unique, and highly original series that gave us powerful
characters, detailed stories, and that Lost itch in the back of your
mind that keeps you asking that age old question, "why". Yet, in all of
its power, it was canceled.
Firefly is perfection on a stick. The twang of the guitar, the stone-face stare of Mal, the goofiness of Jayne (is that a girls name?), the questionable past of Shepard Book, the humor of Wash, the power of Zoe, and the innocence of Kaylee is exactly why I fell in love with this show. This is honestly, one of the few series that I could go back from the beginning and watch again, loving every moment of it. Whedon created a masterpiece in my eyes, and a huge opportunity was missed by several major networks to keep this imagination alive.
While some will argue that Firefly was full of nothing more than C-rated actors who were "shallow cut-outs, and whose dialogue never rises above the level of a so-so sitcom", I thought that they brought so much personality and charisma to a smorgasbord of unoriginal programming. I wanted to know the truth behind River and the darkness behind the good Shepard. I continually waited for a snappy comeback from Mal, and was excited whenever he showed humility. Jayne was a big favorite of mine, always questioning authority, yet as loyal as the family dog. The love between Zoe and Wash brought a new layer of honesty to this sci-fi series. It wasn't just about paying for the ship, flying through unmapped terrain, or stealing, it was about humanity. That sense of humanity could be found in the opening episode for this series aptly titled "Serenity". In it, the crew takes upon some passengers with some rather unknown cargo. Inside one of those crates is a girl that will change their lives forever. For this series to work successfully, as it did, we needed human characters that bled, felt compassion, and demonstrated connectiveness to each of us. Mal's ship, Serenity, was a living example of how television could be done creatively and originally.
The characters could only be as strong as the words that were handed to them. Listening to the words that pass through Mal's mouth, the charm of Wash, or even the inconsistent ramblings of River, you could only wonder where Whedon could have gone with all of them. In each of these characters, Whedon had written secrets. While, sadly, we may never know what they all were, that is what made you itch for more episodes. You not only wanted to see the creative "western" adventures that Whedon was sending his crew, but you also wanted to learn more about these band of renegades. They were good, but possibly darkness reigned inside of them. The character most guilty of this (outside of River) was Shepard Book. I loved this character. Whedon drew him with so much passion and conviction, yet with every episode you learned more about this man than imaginable. He is an excellent example of what this series was like. He represented the smart words of Whedon, the humanity of his character, and the secrets that each of these shared. He was a "priest", yet he knew more about the Alliance than anyone aboard that ship. If anyone were to ask me to describe the series in two words, I would simply say, "Shepard Book".
George Lucas is credited with creating this detailed futuristic world that gives us glimpses of a possible future, or a galaxy far far away, Whedon succeeded in this series by giving us a plausible future in the not-too-distant future of 500 years. Prostitution in legal, in fact respected in the community, the Chinese and Americans have forged one super power called the Alliance, and our hero is a war veteran, still not shaken by the loss that his side took due to the Alliance control. While Lucas gives us far-fetched characters and situations, Whedon gives us a imaginative look at our future. I think that is why this series worked so well for me. I could imagine this future. I could see it past the characters. I wasn't bogged down by dopey looking aliens, but instead a plausible man vs. man situation. Firefly was simple, yet so complex.
I could honestly go on forever about how much I enjoyed this show. I have never watched a series where I found myself prepared to watch over and over again. Firefly blends a power mixture of comedy, western, and action all together and the characters bleed. Villains die in this series. How often do you see that? If you have not watched this series, or have not spent the money to support it, DO IT RIGHT NOW!
Grade:(proudly) ***** out of *****
Absolutely, totally and completely worth owning. I had not had the
priviledge of seeing it while it was on television. I bought it on a whim
one day after reading a few good reviews (mainly in Entertainment Weekly
which gave a raving review) and hearing good things from friends. I am so
glad that I took that opportunity.
What can I say about it? It's innovative with intriguing characters and it makes me laugh uproariously when I probably shouldn't! I would highly recommend it to all who would listen.
Take this chance - you won't be sorry.
The best action adventure science fiction series I've ever seen. From
Whedon, the guy who did "Buffy the Vampire Slayer", this show is well
rough and tumble action from start to finish.
"Star Trek" is too bright and squeaky clean. "Earth 2" is dull and slow. "Babylon 5" is the only other show which even comes close to matching the quality of "Firefly".
I became a fan of BtVS January 1, 2002. I realise that at this time I was
slightly behind, as well as on Angel, but I managed to recap all the
episodes I missed (from FX and computer downloads and the such) and I was
amazed at how wonderfully crafted these two shows were. Everytime a new
comes out for Buffy or Angel, I HAVE to pick it up within the first week
its release date.
Then I heard of Firefly. I never watched it when it was airing on TV, which I guess was good, considering they screwed over 3 unaired episodes and aired them not in order, and literally screwed over this wonderful television show.
Then the DVD came out, and although I was interested, had never seen the show before in my life. So one day in my local Circuit City I decided to throw away 40 bucks and check out this new Joss creation. I bought it purely on trust and luck. It was worth it...
It is truly a sat feat that Firefly ended so quickly. For a cast of mostly unknowns, the acting was superb, and they all portrayed their characters to the tee. Each character had their own complex story, personality, and no one was a carbon copy of another character. The ship was beautiful, the special effects were beautiful, the plots were skillfully crafted, the twists fresh and exciting, it was really an exciting adventure to watch every episode.
I am very excited there is talk (and possibly already in the works) of a movie, because hopefully Fox will get it through their heads that this is a quality show, and maybe Universal will give rights back to Fox to make it a show again. That would be a true delight for the die-hards that love and adore the show.
It will not be forgotten.
What a wonderful show this was. Watching the DVDS made me miss it. I loved the concept of the the future but with things we were familiar with too. Loved the whole western idea and I thought the Chinese influence was very interesting. I like that when they needed to cuss, it was in Chinese and you could use your imagination as to what they were really saying. I like all the actors and thought each was terrific in their part. There are still plenty of questions unanswered and I really hope they make the movie but it would also be great if they had "made for tv" movies so we could have more. The ultimate would be to have it back on tv but it would have to be a cable station and not network. I could go on but I know the other reviewers have gone in depth better than I. The DVDS are great, loved the behind the scenes and commentary. I highly recommend buying it!
Firefly. Where do I begin. There are times, now and then, when
something new arrives, be it music, painting, scientific discovery,
film or TV which just makes me take a step back (metaphoric or
otherwise) and go - 'Ooooh!' Something is so good, so in-tune, that it
sucks me in and creates an indefinable something which is impossible to
put into words without sounding like either a pretentious idiot or a
yabbering nutcase. Without a doubt it is one of the best pieces of
television ever created and the heartbreaking thing is no one but a few
interested souls have seen it. This should have been as important a
step in TV terms as The X-Files, or before that Hill Street Blues.
Instead it was cancelled before anyone got a chance to see it.
Over the last couple of days I've tried to describe the series to people. It's a western set in the future with spaceships and horses. They swear all the way through it but in Chinese. One of the main characters is a Shepherd or holy man and another is a Companion or prostitute. It's about a group of interplanetary traders trying to make their way. And there are no aliens. No sound in space. And funny in a Douglas Adams / The Simpsons way and in places better than Star Wars. It sounds ridiculous and the blank faces I've been getting are heartbreaking.
Basically its impossible for me to review it. I feel like I'm too close, unable to express rational thought. I can't see its failings. No its only failing is that it strives to be utterly original in the face of overwhelming banality. At no point does it do anything if it can't be done interestingly. For example, the aforementioned Shepherd somehow has a genius knowledge of weapons and vehicles. Being a Companion is a legal and respectable trade. The comedy relief pilot is married to the amazonian second in command but he can be utterly serious when need be and she can be a laugh riot. And time after time you'll think an episode is about one thing and it'll be turned on its head and it'll actually be about something else even more extra-ordinary. That cack like Andromeda continues and this does explains why the world is still run by the children of morons.
It's not often I will recommend something unconditionally, but here I am. Just buy it. Its 25 pounds at Amazon on DVD, and Tesco have got it in store for 30. It's a bargain. If you like sci-fi - buy it. If you like Buffy or Angel buy it. If you like comedy adventure - buy it. If you simply want to take a chance to see something extra-ordinary - buy it. Think of it as an investment. Even though by the end you'll be a wreck because you won't understand why something so right could only last for so few episodes, and you want to know what happens next, you'll be heartened to know a film is coming next year, which hopefully answer some of the questions. So think of it as an investment, so that when all of your friends are talking about it you can smugly say you were there first. Or if you want to be a real friend invite them along now for the ride.
This is a wonderful show. The fault lies completely with Fox in showing
episodes out of order and putting it in a really bad timeslot.
The ensemble cast is spectacular with good plots, some silly, some deep.
If you love Joss Whedon one-liners and Sci/Fi, this is not one to miss.

Hey nomads, I just stumbled across this awesome little maker gadget. It's just an Altoids can, two AA, and some hardware. So
Perfect for charging our stuff on the go. I'll be buying one later when I get back on the road.
Personally, I think a solar charger is (in the long term) a better buy: Compact Solar Power Station
Thanks for,
Portable, compact and uniquely-designed to split a 4.2charge between two ports, alternate between charging 2 Smartphones at 2.1 amp each. With a foldable prong its perfect for travel and with an universal power acceptance never be stranded or limited to charging one device from a wall socket anymore!
This 2 USB Port 20w Travel Wall Charger is a versatile powerful and reliable charger. It is convenient, powerful, safe, easy to use, and designed to have enough power to charge Andriod or Apple 2 of any Devices Simultaneously.
Non brand wireless charger is like waste money becasue we can't replace to company if occurred any problem regarding to charging or any technical fault, i would be recommend choe amazon shop to buy any wireless charger devices for i phonesNew Announcement - amazon.com/dp/B00HZF6UGG/
Overslept by one hour on my last nap. I got up to turn off the alarm and then sat back down on the bed for what I thought would be a one second breather...obviously not. Lesson learned, stay away from the bed, it will get you! I find it odd that I woke up naturally just one hour later considering how little sleep I've been getting. I'm not discouraged. I'm still on track, just a little hiccup.
I have been trying to get the stream going but I am having trouble connecting to the server. And it seems that I am having other problems with the streaming software that I didn't find when I was testing. So I will simply record the footage and post it on Youtube. Also, I have just finished transcribing the interview and so I plan on having it released by the latest in a week.

Recently some customers asked me how to use reportviewer 2010 in their visual studio 2008 project. ReportViewer 2010 fully supports both Visual Studio 2008 and Visual Studio 2010. The problem is that in Visual Studio 2008, you cannot directly use it in design time. This is a helpful hint, so I decided to dig it out. Really it works very well but need your efforts on extracting the DLLs from GAC and manually coding to create the reportviewer control. Here are my steps to show you how to make it work.
1. Download the ReportViewer 2010 Redistributable package from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=a941c6b2-64dd-4d03-9ca7-4017a0d164fd&displaylang=en.
2. Install it on your computer, then the Microsoft.ReportViewer.WinForm.dll will be registered in GAC, however you could not directly reference this assembly from GAC in Visual Studio 2008. Referencing the assembly file is needed however the dll is not installed in other place. So the next step is how to extract the assembly file from the GAC.
3. John's blog showed some ways to extract assemblies from GAC. I used Windows Command Prompt to extract the Microsoft.ReportViewer.Winform.dll and Microsoft.ReportViewer. Common.dll out to my project's bin folder. You can first use the "cd" command to redirect the folder to " C:\Windows\assembly\GAC_MSIL\Microsoft.ReportViewer.WinForms", then use the "dir" command to check which folder is for ReportViewer 10.0 and run "cd" again to redirect to that folder, then run copy command like "copy Microsoft.ReportViewer.Winform.dll D:\Projects\MyTestReport\Bin\Microsoft.ReportViewer.Winform.dll" to copy the file to your project's bin folder. As well you can copy the Microsoft.ReportViewer. Common.dll file.
4. Then in Visual Studio 2008, right click the Reference folder, click "Add Reference...", switch to the Browse tab and add the references to these two assemblies. You can also add the ReportViewer control to the ToolBox via Choose Items by selecting the assembly Microsoft.ReportViewer.Winform.dll in the bin folder, but you will find that the control does not have real UI appearance. It just shows as a component but it is good since you can set properties via the property window.
5. Refer to those auto-generated code for the ReportViewer 2008 control in your project, manually add the code for your Reportviewer 2010 control to your Windows Form application accordingly.
6. For example, you have a form named Form1, modify the InitializeComponent function in Form1.Designer.cs as follows.
#region Windows Form Designer generated code
/// <summary> /// Required method for Designer support - do not modify /// the contents of this method with the code editor. /// </summary> private void InitializeComponent() { this.components = new System.ComponentModel.Container();
this.reportViewer1 = new Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ReportViewer(); adventureWorksDW2008DataSet = new AdventureWorksDW2008DataSet(); V_GETSALESTableAdapter = new WFMix.AdventureWorksDW2008DataSetTableAdapters.v_getSalesTableAdapter();
this.SuspendLayout(); // // reportViewer1 // this.reportViewer1.LocalReport.ReportEmbeddedResource = "WFMix.Report1.rdlc"; //this.reportViewer1.LocalReport.ReportPath = "Report1.rdlc"; this.reportViewer1.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(13, 13); this.reportViewer1.Name = "reportViewer1"; this.reportViewer1.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(532, 352); this.reportViewer1.TabIndex = 0;
Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ReportDataSource rds = new Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ReportDataSource(); rds.Name = "AdventureWorksDW2008DataSet_v_getSales"; rds.Value = adventureWorksDW2008DataSet.v_getSales; this.reportViewer1.LocalReport.DataSources.Add(rds);
// // Form1 // this.AutoScaleDimensions = new System.Drawing.SizeF(6F, 13F); this.AutoScaleMode = System.Windows.Forms.AutoScaleMode.Font; this.ClientSize = new System.Drawing.Size(708, 417); this.Controls.Add(this.reportViewer1); this.Name = "Form1"; this.Text = "Form1"; this.Load += new System.EventHandler(this.Form1_Load); this.ResumeLayout(false);
private Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ReportViewer reportViewer1; private AdventureWorksDW2008DataSet adventureWorksDW2008DataSet = null; private AdventureWorksDW2008DataSetTableAdapters.v_getSalesTableAdapter V_GETSALESTableAdapter = null;
7. In the Form_Load event, you can fill the data to refresh your report just like ReportViewer 2008.
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { V_GETSALESTableAdapter.Fill(adventureWorksDW2008DataSet.v_getSales); this.reportViewer1.RefreshReport(); }

Occupational Segregation, Social Stratification, and the Pay Gap
This chapter considers the relationship between occupational segregation, social stratification, and the sex differential in earnings. Social inequality and economic inequality are obviously linked ( Marshallet al., 1988). Their relationship to the sex-segregation of occupations is not self-evident. Hartmann was clear that occupational segregation is a patriarchal practice, being the primary mechanism in capitalist society for maintaining the superiority of men over women because it enforces lower wages for women in the labour market. But she was also clear that there are no social class exemptions from patriarchy, and that all men, workers as well as employers, contribute to the maintenance and constant renewal of occupational segregation and the maintenance of women's inferiority in the labour market ( Hartmann, 1976: 139). Men enjoyed only the single oppression of capitalism, whereas women confronted the double burden of capitalism and patriarchy ( Hartmann, 1976: 168). Subsequent writers have sought to develop the idea of interactions between class and sex inequalities, with no real success to date, as McRae ( 1990) points out. However, recent historical research has undermined Hartmann's thesis, showing that occupational segregation was introduced in the late nineteenth century to ensure the physical rather than the economic segregation of men and women ( Humphries, 1987) and that trends in occupational segregation are not related to trends in the pay gap ( Hakim, 1994, 1996a: 80-2, 170-7).
The information contained in the SARs is too limited to allow us to fully address these broad theoretical issues. However, the large size of the SAR files enables us to explore the relationship between occupational segregation, social stratification, and the pay gap in far more detail than is possible with ordinary sample survey datasets.
Occupational segregation and social stratification are theoretically separate areas of inquiry. Both deal with social and economic inequalities, and there is an extensive literature considering whether and how sexual and class

Though the trade between India and Saudi Arabia reached $43.17 billion in 2012-2013, [2] registering a growth of 35.14 percent over the previous financial year, the level of investments on both sides, however, is still very low, according to Consul General Faiz Ahmad Kidwai, who is also vice patron of SIBN (Saudi Indian Business Network).
Addressing a seminar on foreign direct investments (FDI) in India and the taxation system at the Jeddah Chamber of Commerce and Industry (JCCI) on Sunday, Kidwai thanked Mazen Batterjee, vice chairman of JCCI and president of SIBN, for the opportunity to conduct the seminar at the chamber premises. He extended congratulations for the "very successful" Jeddah Economic Forum [3]that was held recently.
Kidwai stated that Indian investments in Saudi Arabia till date amount to about $1.6 billion with some other large investments in the pipeline. Whereas Saudi investments in India totaled about $228 million till last year. [4]
"It is quite an appalling situation as Saudi Arabia has about a $1 trillion worth sovereign fund, which is lying safe for investment, and India has a huge domestic market to ensure profitable investments," he added.
"I feel that there is a need for the two countries to understand each other and to, [5] more importantly, believe in each other. It is with this intention for dissemination of information among Saudi businessmen that we are organizing this seminar," he added.
He recounted that during his visit to the Kingdom in January Indian Finance Minister P. Chidambaram discussed the importance of Saudi investments in India and presented some very specific projects for investment there. These include the Delhi-Mumbai industrial corridor which is a huge project being implemented with the help of the Japanese government, [6]and certain petrochemical complexes at Dahej in Gujarat, at Mangalore in Karnataka and also in Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and Orissa. "These could be of interest to Saudi investors," said Kidwai.

Officers responding to the scene of a drunken driving accident arrested a second drunken driver who attempted to drive around the scene during the early morning hours Sunday.
According to Oak Creek police:
A 29-year-old Oak Creek man was speeding when he plowed into the rear end of a vehicle driving at the posted speed limit in the 1500 block of West Puetz Road shortly before 1:30 a.m. Nov. 4.
Both vehicles left the roadway and were totaled in the accident, but no injuries were reported. The Oak Creek Fire Department was called to the scene due to a large amount of smoke coming from the engine compartment of one of the vehicles.
The 29-year-old man was arrested for drunken driving, second offense, and was cited for unreasonable and imprudent speed. His blood-alcohol content was 0.18.
Approximately 20 minutes after police arrived, a car attempting to drive around the scene of the accident nearly struck a police squad that was parked in the road to block traffic.
The driver of the vehicle, a 33-year-old Oak Creek woman, was pulled over and arrested for drunken driving after a breath test revealed her blood-alcohol content was 0.13.

A characterisation of anti-Löwner functions
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: According to a celebrated result by Löwner, a real-valued function is operator monotone if and only if its Löwner matrix, which is the matrix of divided differences , is positive semidefinite for every integer and any choice of . In this paper we answer a question of R. Bhatia, who asked for a characterisation of real-valued functions defined on for which the matrix of divided sums , which we call its anti-Löwner matrix, is positive semidefinite for every integer and any choice of . Such functions, which we call anti-Löwner functions, have applications in the theory of Lyapunov-type equations.

She gives a basic explanation of the "enemies" your photographs are facing, even breaking down information on particular types of photographs, tintypes, Polaroids, etc. But does not bother defining some basic terms in the glossary such as lignin. Nor are many of her suggestions for which supplies are appropriate specific enough. Eg., what kind of brush should I use to clean photos? I know that Nylon brushes are probably not soft enough for treasured photos. Even worse she says polyethylene is a bad material to store your photos in, but a few pages later suggests using polyethylene freezer bags for freezer storage of items.
Taylor includes lengthy lists of resources for, and more information on preservation. But some of the web addresses she lists no longer exist.
While she has some good suggestions for long-term storage of photo collections, I would not recommend this book to anyone trying to learn about photographic preservation.

- Ukraine, Moscow clinch deal on Russian gas supply
WASHINGTON — Stepping up pressure on Moscow, the U.S. on Sunday released satellite images it says show that rockets have been fired from Russia into neighboring eastern Ukraine and that heavy artillery for separatists has crossed the border.
The images, which came from the U.S. Director of National Intelligence and could not be independently verified, show blast marks where rockets were launched and craters where they landed. Officials said the images show heavy weapons fired between July 21 and July 26 — after the July 17 downing of Malaysia Airlines Flight 17.
The four-page memo is part of the Obama administration's push to hold Russia accountable for its activities in neighboring Ukraine, and the release could help to persuade the United States' European allies to apply harsher sanctions on Russia.
The timing of the memo also could be aimed at dissuading Russia from further military posturing. The Pentagon said days ago that the movement of Russian heavy-caliber artillery systems across its border into Ukraine was "imminent."
Moscow has denied allegations of Russia's involvement in eastern Ukraine.
Secretary of State John Kerry spoke by phone Sunday with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, urging him to stop the flow of heavy weapons and rocket and artillery fire from Russia into Ukraine, said a State Department official. Kerry did not accept Lavrov's denial that heavy weapons from Russia were contributing to the conflict, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity to provide details of the call.
There was no immediate comment from Moscow.
Separately, The New York Times reported Sunday that defense and intelligence officials were working on a plan that would enable the Obama administration to give Ukraine specific locations of surface-to-air missiles controlled by Russian-backed separatists.

It's been a great year for rock 'n' roll records released by your friends and neighbors. Here are the ones I really liked.
There's never a shortage of great local artists, and we play many of them here and often. This list totals up all of the most played St. Louis releases from 2014.
Karate Bikini -- the olio of St. Louis bands -- celebrated the release of their new album "A Simpler Sugar," with a rollicking night of music at Off Broadway.
Take some power pop, add glam rock, mix in a multitude of different instruments and you've got Karate Bikini's new album, "A Simpler Sugar." As stated on the band's Facebook page, Karate Bikini "makes music. Really surprising cool music that needs to be heard."
KDHX DJ Rich Reese presented a guided tour of Power Pop on Thursday, as part of the Discovery Series at the Stage, KDHX's Grand Center performance space.
The stroll to downtown St. Louis' City Museum consists of cracked and cobbled stones that prove themselves ankle-twisters after several libations. Their unsteady ground further rumbled under foot as an unseen siren's wail emanated from the building the path surrounds.
The ninth annual Midwest Mayhem -- KDHX's thank-you party for donors that contribute during its spring drive -- washed over the City Museum on Thursday night.
Dear STL, keep being awesome. This year saw the band I'd nurtured for six years coming to an end, but a beginning to so many cool, freaky awesome bands from friends of mine. If 2012 is any indication, St. Louis music is back in a big way.
They're writing great songs, releasing albums and playing shows all the time. 2012 brought some fantastic releases from local St. Louis artists -- some brand new to the scene and others sounding better than ever.

We decided to give each of our honey bee colonies about 4 pounds of sugar yesterday because the bees have been clustering at the top of the hives for the past few weeks and are possibly running low on honey stores. We fed them dry sugar following what in some circles is referred to as the Mountain Camp method: Place a piece of newspaper over the top bars, pour dry sugar on top and shelter the whole thing inside a shallow super or an eke. Here's a brief video that shows how we did it:
We sprayed the newspaper lightly to make it easier for the bees to chew through it. The dry sugar will harden on its own by absorbing moisture from the bees' respiration, but we also sprayed it a bit to get the process started. (Update: Both the sugar and the newspaper will absorb plenty of moisture without having to be sprayed.)
I'm not convinced the bees are running low on honey. All the hives seemed to have plenty of honey the last time we checked them in the fall. Maybe the bees are clustering high in the hives because it's easier to stay warm up there. Whatever the case may be, the dry sugar feeding was the quickest, simplest precaution we could take. And it sure beats having to mix up a batch of hard candy for them.
For anyone on dial-up who can't play videos, here are two photos:
|Bees clustering high in the hive. (Dec. 31/11.)
We used our prototype ventilation rim with the holes taped over to make room for the sugar. The video shows us pulling up one of our insulated inner covers. Two of the hives have only a piece of hard insulation over the inner cover but it makes no difference. Four pounds of sugar on a piece of newspaper over the top bars looks like this:
|2.1kg of dry sugar on newspaper.
Then we put the insulated inner cover back on, duct taped the hive wrap back in place and that was it. The bees were exposed to the 2°C air (36°F) for about two minutes tops.
See comments and this post for updates.
P.S.: Make sure to remove the sugar before spring. See Big Time Burr Comb for more info.
ADDENDUM (Nov. 25/13): I can't see myself ever switching to another method of winter feeding because I just don't see how it could be easier. Yes, the dry sugar method involves exposing the bees to potentially brood-chilling air, but I pre-cut the newspaper so it easily fits over the top bars and I have the raw sugar on standby in an easy-to-pour container (and I don't spray down the newspaper or sugar anymore — that was a mistake). I can open a hive, load it up with 4 or 5 pounds of raw sugar and have it sealed up in less than a minute. That's good enough for me. I also don't wait until January or February anymore. I put the sugar in the hives around the same time I wrap and insulate the hives for winter.
UPDATE (Jan. 15/14): One extra improvement for this method: Don't cover the entire top bars with newspaper. Leave a wide strip near the front of the hive. Otherwise you can't see down into the frames and see how the bees are doing. You could also just put the sugar over a large circle of newspaper in the middle of the top bars because most likely that's where the cluster will rise anyway.
UPDATE (April 16/14): I don't use hard insulation (or insulated inner covers) to insulate my hives anymore. I switched to moisture quilts because they keep the hives well ventilated and bone dry. The hard insulation method is the easiest, but for my local soaking wet environment (in Logy Bay), I need to keep my hives as dry as I can.

Tsunami warning follows strong quake near Solomons
HONIARA, Solomon Islands (AP) -- A tsunami warning has been issued for some Pacific islands following a powerful magnitude-7.6 earthquake near the Solomon Islands.
The United States Geological Service said the quake struck around 7:14 a.m. local time Sunday. Its epicenter was 323 kilometers (200 miles) southeast of Honiara, the Solomons capital, and its depth was 29.3 kilometers (18.2 miles).
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center has issued a warning for the Solomon Islands, Vanuatu and Papua New Guinea. The center says it's not known if the quake generated a tsunami but it was powerful enough to trigger one.
There were no immediate reports of injuries or damage from the temblor.
The Solomon Islands lies on the "Ring of Fire" -- an arc of earthquake and volcanic activity that stretches around the Pacific Rim.

Contents tagged with LINQ
Lesser-Known NHibernate Features: Filtering an Unloaded Collection
Suppose you have an entity with a collection of other entities (one to many, many to many); this collection is normally represented by some property implementing IEnumerable<T>, or one some more specific interface.
ASP.NET NHibernateDataSource
A long, long time ago, I wrote a NHibernateDataSource control. Back then, it was based in the first LINQ provider for NHibernate, and a long has happened since. Now, I decided to give it another go!
Entity Framework Pitfalls: Registering Custom Database Functions for LINQ
Like I said in my previous post, it's not enough to add a DbFunctionAttribute attribute to a method to have it call a database function. If the function is not a built-in one, it will not be registered in the Entity Framework provider manifest for SQL Server, so it will require registration in the model. You might think, just by looking at the methods in SqlFunctions that all that it took was to add this attribute, but you would be wrong.
Registering SQL Server Built-in Functions to Entity Framework Code First
It is possible to register custom functions that exist in the database so that they can be called by Entity Framework Code First LINQ queries.
Getting the SQL from a LINQ Query in NHibernate
In case you ever want to have a look at the generated SQL before it is actually executed, you can use this extension method:
Mapping Non-Public Members With Entity Framework Code First
This is a common request, and really makes sense; we need to use LINQ expressions and a bit of reflection magic. First, an helper function for returning an expression that points to a member:
Caching LINQ Queries
Some days ago I wrote a post on comparing LINQ expressions where I shared my discoveries and general discontent on how difficult it is do right. The reason I was looking into it was because I wanted to write a LINQ query caching mechanism.
Dynamic LINQ Extension Method
Remember those old posts on Dynamic LINQ? You are probably aware that Microsoft has made its implementation available as a Nuget package, but, like I said, you already have it in your machine, hidden inside the System.Web.Extensions assembly.
Comparing LINQ Expressions
I recently came upon this problem: how to calculate a hash from a LINQ expression so that I can safely compare two expressions for equality? I had naively assumed that the Expression class – and their descendants – would have implemented GetHashCode in an appropriate way, so as to make developer's lifes easier, but unfortunately Microsoft thought otherwise.
Intercepting LINQ Queries
A common request when working with LINQ queries (Entity Framework, NHibernate, etc) is the ability to intercept them, that is, inspect an existing query and possibly modify something in it. This is not extremely difficult to do "by hand", but Microsoft has a nice class called ExpressionVisitor which makes the job easier. It basically has virtual methods that get called whenever the class visits each expression contained in a greater expression, which may come from a query (the IQueryable interface exposes the underlying Expression in its Expression property). The virtual methods even allow returning a replacement for each expression found, the only problem is that you must subclass ExpressionVisitor to make even the slightest change, so I wrote my own class, which exposes all node traversal as events, one event for each kind of expression, where you can return an alternative expression, thus changing the original query. Here is the code for it:

Lecce is a historical city in the heart of Salento and one of the provinces of Apulia region, Southern Italy. Very often it is also called 'Florence of Southern Italy', because of the magnificent Baroque art styled monuments and noble palaces you can find not only in the old town but also everywhere in Salento area. A nice stroll in the city would bring you to visit the amphitheatre in the Saint'Oronzo Square where you can stop also for having a creamy ice-cream and then heading to have a peek at the fantastic Baroque jewel Santa Croce Church and the front of Celestini Palace..at the Dome along the main shopping street..at the Castle Charles V. The city has also a long traditional bond with the Greek culture which dates back to its old origins; indeed there are suggestive tiny villages in the nearby that are identified as Grecìa Salentina, where natives still speak griko, an old language which reminds of old Greek. Lecce is also an important centre for the production of its golden extra virgin olive oil and its velvety ruby wines, Primitivo and Negroamaro, as well as its fine ceramics. The crystal clear sea of both the rocky Adriatic and the sandy Ionian coast is not very far: a pleasant driving will bring you in stunning places where you will enjoy great time in the sun and having a swim or taking fabulous pictures for your album of memories. Torre dell'Orso, Otranto, Castro, Santa Maria di Leuca, Gallipoli, Porto Cesareo. And of course there is a lot of more heading in the inland to visit very fine cultural centres like Galatina, Nardò² etc. Btw, the owner of the Sunshine property, Giusy, will be at hand for any info more you need in order to have a well tailored holiday.

Yummy. I only made 1 serving for my breakfast so used my little cast iron skillet to make this and the dish came out wonderfully. It worked perfectly under the broiler. I just tipped it out onto a slice of toast and had a great hot start to this rainy day. Thanks for a different way to do eggs. Made for ZWT 9.
This had a great flavor! It took a little longer both for the butter to melt, and for the egg whites to set. I had impatient hungry people waiting so I just microwaved it for a minute at the end. Perfect weekend breakfast with toast and fruit. For ZWT9.

The Influence of Social Values and Childhood Socialization on Occupational Gender Segregation and Wage Disparity
Kalantari, Behrooz, Public Personnel Management
Dramatic increase in the labor force participation of women is the single most outstanding phenomenon in the United States' labor market. This phenomenon has significant effects on every aspect of life, including child-rearing pattern, trend in fertility, marriage and divorce, pattern of marital power, decision-making and demand for supportive services in the economy. For this reason, it can be argued that greatest changes of the twenty-first century may result from the tremendous increase in the proportion of women working outside their homes. Recent statistics indicate that Women comprised 46% of the total U.S. labor force in 2007 and are projected to account for 47% of the labor force in 2014. (1) Taking into consideration the historical context of this phenomenon, this data shows a gradual increase in female participation in the labor force. For example, according to Parrish, "in 1870 women comprised only 15 percent of all the labor force in the United States and by 1930 it reached as high as 25 percent." (2) This increase is mainly due to the changes in nature of the economy, social composition and female's participation in higher education. Recent studies show that in 2007, women made up "the majority of college students and female's GPAs are on average higher than male's across all majors." (3)
Latest statistics on women's earnings show that the median weekly earnings of women who were full-time wage and salary workers were $614 or 80 percent of men's ($746) which is slightly lower than previous year of $600 or 81 percent of men's $743. (4) This figure represents a modest increase in median weekly salary for women who worked full-time in 2002 and earned $530 or 78 percent of their male counterparts which was $680. (5) Although there has been a steady improvement in women's earning especially during last few years, there is still substantial wage gap between male and female employees in the work force. The theory of pay equity (comparable worth), or "equal pay for work of equal value," has been advocating substantial policy changes to close this gap more rapidly.
Wage inequity raises significant questions of social justice, efficient utilization of human resources, structuring of labor markets, and of wider social aspects of work and family life. (6) Policies based on the "comparable worth theory," require that employees be paid comparable salaries based on the composition of the jobs. For example, such factors as know-how, problem solving, accountability, and undesirable working conditions that can be measured should be used to evaluate the worth of a job rather than using the job market as the sole criterion. (7)
Most labor market theories indicate that occupational gender segregation is the major dilemma which contributes to the wage disparity between male and female employees in the United States. (8) Several studies show that high concentration of women is found in only a few occupations nationally and generally in few job titles at the firm level. (9) Most studies highlight the undervalued female dominated occupations as compared to their male counterpart and the negative effect of this phenomenon on female earnings. (10) Although job segregation is a social issue, it spills over into other aspects of life. Existence of job segregation has substantial economic and social consequences especially if we take into consideration the median earning for jobs in the labor market. According to the recent statistics representing jobs with different pay scales (Tables 1 and 2), women are concentrated in low-paying jobs while their male counterparts dominate the most highly paid occupations. (11)
Similar results are reported by AFL-CIO on wages and occupations in 2005. According to their findings, 92% of registered nurses, 82% of elementary/middle school teachers, and 98% of kindergarten/preschool teachers were female while only 13% of civil engineers, 7% of electrical engineers, and 3% of flight engineers/aircraft engineers were female. …

Heinz sets April 30 for special shareholder meeting to vote on acquisition
H.J. Heinz Company (HNZ) announced that it has set a date for a special meeting of its shareholders to consider and vote on, among other things, a proposal to approve and adopt the previously announced merger agreement, dated as of February 13, as amended, providing for the acquisition of Heinz by an investment consortium comprised of Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A) and an investment fund affiliated with 3G Capital. Heinz also announced that the parties have received early termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, in connection with the transaction. The early termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act satisfies one of the conditions for consummation of the transaction. The transaction remains subject to certain other closing conditions, including approval by Heinz shareholders, receipt of certain other regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions, and is expected to close late in the second calendar quarter of 2013 or in the third calendar quarter of 2013.
