Routing Overview
Joomla! 1.5 is capable of creating and parsing URLs in any format, including human readable URL's. Another improvement is that this still works even if Joomla! runs a server other than Apache with the mod_rewrite module.
A good example of this is the "Welcome to Joomla" article. The first link shown was generated without mod_rewrite, and the second link was generated with mod_rewrite:
Preparing Your Data for Routing
The Alias
The first step is the generation of the so called alias. The alias is used in the URL instead of the title (the title is the text you want to have in the url). The alias has to be URI safe, which means accented UTF8 characters are replaced by their ASCII7 equivalents, white spaces by hyphens, etc.
The alias can be defined by the user, but you should ensure that the above requirements for a URL safe alias are met. A good way to do so is to use the JTable::check() method during the save process. Have a look at this example code:
function check() { jimport( 'joomla.filter.output' ); if(empty($this->alias)) { $this->alias = $this->title; } $this->alias = JFilterOutput::stringURLSafe($this->alias); /* All your other checks */ return true; }
If the alias field is empty the title will be used as alias. Then the alias will be made URLSafe using the JFilterOutput::stringURLSafe() method.
The Slug
Continuing with the same example, the "slug" - "1-welcome-to-joomla" has two parts. The first part is the article identifier (id) and the second is the alias. They are separated by a hyphen. These two elements were combined during the database query in the model:
$query = 'SELECT a.*,'. ' CASE WHEN CHAR_LENGTH(a.alias) THEN CONCAT_WS(\':\', a.id, a.alias) ELSE a.id END as slug,'. [...];
After this step the slug is used instead of the id.
Routing URL's
JRoute::_ method translates the internal Joomla! URL to a custom URL.
JRoute has three parameters and its prototype is:
JRoute::_( $url, $xhtml = true, $ssl=0 );
$urlis a string containing the absolute or relative internal Joomla! URL.
$xhtmlis a boolean value that specifies whether or not the output should be in XHTML. This parameter is optional and if omitted defaults to true.
$sslis an integer value that specifies whether the URI should be secure. It should be set to 1 to force the URI to be secure using the global secure site URI, 0 to leave it in the same state as when it was passed, and -1 to force the URI to be unsecure using the global unsecure site URI.
The most important parameter is
$url. A call to this method might look like:
JRoute::_( 'index.php?view=article&id='.$row->slug );
$row->slug is the value that was generated in step 2 from a combination of id and title alias.
Another advantage of using JRoute is that the router now handles $option (the component name) and the $Itemid (the menu item ID). The component itself doesn't have to know its name ($option) or the active menu item ($Itemid) like it did in previous version of Joomla!.
It is important that you think about the sequence of the URL parameter in this stage. This will be more clear when we have a deeper look at the router.php in the next section.
The building process of JRouter is divided into two steps:
- Create the application route. The application route is fully handled by JRouter and the component developer doesn't have to do anything to make it work.
- Create the component route. To create the component route, JRouter looks for the router.php in the component directory which is responsible for building the route for the component.
The Component Router
We will have two functions In the router.php. One is responsible for building the URL and the other is responsible for parsing it. In the next examples, a very basic and a more advanced one, we assume that we have three views that links can point to. The first is a categories overview (view=categories), the second is a single category (view=category) and the third is a single article (view=article).
A Simple Example
This simple example will illustrate the basics of implementing a router for your component.
function [Componentname]BuildRoute( &$query ) { $segments = array(); if(isset($query['view'])) { $segments[] = $query['view']; unset( $query['view'] ); } if(isset($query['id'])) { $segments[] = $query['id']; unset( $query['id'] ); }; return $segments; }
JRouter passes a $query array to the
[Componentname]BuildRoute function. This function will add the relevant parts of the array to the $segments array in the right order and will return the properly ordered array. The content of the
$query array needs to be unset, otherwise
JRouter will add it to the URL in the form of a query string (i.e. any variables that are not handled by the router will be passed in the query string).
The next function in the
router.php parses the URL:
function [Componentname]ParseRoute( $segments ) { $vars = array(); switch($segments[0]) { case 'categories': $vars['view'] = 'categories'; break; case 'category': $vars['view'] = 'category'; $id = explode( ':', $segments[1] ); $vars['id'] = (int) $id[0]; break; case 'article': $vars['view'] = 'article'; $id = explode( ':', $segments[1] ); $vars['id'] = (int) $id[0]; break; } return $vars; }
What happens here? In the function
[Componentname]BuildRoute we arranged the items in the
$query array in a specific sequence. This means that in this example the view is first, the catid is second and the id is third in the array.
By reading
$segments[0], we access the name of the view. We set the right view and/or identifier depending on its value and we return the
$vars array to
JRouter. $vars should be an associative array similar to the array that was passed to the BuildRoute method.
The above example of the
router.php is a very simple way to generate sef URL's but should show how this works quite clearly.
The generated URL in this example contains the name of the view and doesn't reflect the content hierarchy:
A More Advanced Example
In the next example we will try to get rid of the need for the view and we will try to reflect the current hierarchy level in the URL.
The goal is URL's that look like:
- When viewing an article:
- When viewing a category:
- When viewing the categories overview:
Let's assume we have done step 1 and 2 also for the category.
The link to the article would look like this:
JRoute::_( 'index.php?view=article&catid='.$row->catslug .'&id='.$row->slug );
And the Link to the category would look like this:
JRoute::_( 'index.php?view=category&id='.$row->catslug );
The corresponding
function [''Componentname'']BuildRoute(&$query) { $segments = array(); if(isset( $query['catid'] )) { $segments[] = $query['catid']; unset( $query['catid'] ); }; if( isset($query['id']) ) { $segments[] = $query['id']; unset( $query['id'] ); }; unset( $query['view'] ); return $segments; }
The difference now is that we don't add the name of the view to the
$segments array. We still unset the view key since otherwise,
JRouter would add it to the URL as part of the query string. Another new thing here is the additional parameter catid that we push into the
$segments array.
function [''Componentname'']ParseRoute($segments) { $vars = array(); $menu =& JMenu::getInstance(); $item =& $menu->getActive(); // Count segments $count = count( $segments ); //Handle View and Identifier switch( $item->query['view'] ) { case 'categories': if($count == 1) { $vars['view'] = 'category'; } if($count == 2) { $vars['view'] = 'article'; } $id = explode( ':', $segments[$count-1] ); $vars['id'] = (int) $id[0]; break; case 'category': $id = explode( ':', $segments[$count-1] ); $vars['id'] = (int) $id[0]; $vars['view'] = 'article'; break; } return $vars; }
You can see that this ParseRoute function has a lot of different code parts in comparison to the previous. The reason for this is simple. We don't have the name of the view in the
$segments array and we need to find another way to determine it.
We need to find out which level of hierarchy we are in by receiving the root element. We do this by looking to the view name of the active menu item:
Also we need to know the number of items in the
$segments array:
$count = count( $segments );
With this information we can correctly set the view for all possible three cases:
- The menu item is a link to the categories view and the
$segmentsarray has two items (
$id). In this case we know that we need to parse a link to an article .
- The menu item is a link to the categories view and the $segments array has one item ($id). In this case we know that we need to parse a link to a category.
- The menu item is a link to a category. In this case, we know that any item in the $segments array is the identifier for an article .
The result of all this code is nice and human readable component URL's.
Application Route Parsing
The API Execution Order outlines that the route (URL) is parsed immediately after initialisation is complete. Since fancy URL's are not treated (yet) in the Administrator, we will follow the route parsing process in detail when
JSite::route in the
index.php file.

In a Hurry?
Go straight to the Quick Selection Guide or the Comments for this article.
Gone are the days when a virus was a virus and everything else was - well – different! Now known collectively as "Malware" these threats are constantly evolving and pose a serious challenge to security software. Signature based scanners give the most reliable detection results but these are limited by the frequency of their database updates. To compliment signature recognition software HIPS programs were developed which look for behavior on your PC which is "characteristic of malware activity". The user is then presented with an alert to either allow or block the event. Some programs automate this process which can occasionally lead to problems. See my article "HIPS Explained" which deals with this and other issues in more detail.
Evaluating the performance of HIPS programs is far from easy and any so called "test results" should be viewed with a degree of caution. It is straightforward enough to feed malware files to a selection of signature scanners and then count what they find to arrive at a score. AV Comparatives provides an admirable service here and the results are always consistent and reliable. There is no such definition line possible for testing HIPS software and my feeling is that some of the vendors may possibly use this to their own advantage ("hype").
Review Criteria
Malware Defender was formerly a commercial program, but this excellent HIPS changed ownership a while back and a new version was released as freeware. The sequence of events relating to this event is set out quite nicely here if anyone is interested. Just follow the thread through.
WinPatrol has been helping to protect computers for more than ten years. With DSA now only available as part of the Privatefirewall package the options for standalone programs of this type have been reduced still further. Maybe then this is the right time to re-visit an old favorite of many users which is still in development and more than capable of providing this extra layer of security.
WinPatrol has many advocates and has recently been upgraded to achieve greater compatibility for Vista and Windows 7 users. It's main objective is to warn you about alterations to your system which may be malware generated. It does this by taking a snapshot of your system settings and alerting you to any changes. WinPatrol operates using a heuristic approach which makes it more likely to find new malware than traditional signature based scanners which are heavily reliant on updates.
WinPatrol will alert you to new program activations as well and is effective across a whole range of malware including worms, trojans, cookies, adware and spyware. Even stuff designed to replicate itself on your system is with WinPatrol's reach. You can also use WinPatrol to filter unwanted cookies and IE add-ons. An added bonus is that WinPatrol will also deal with the problems it finds so you won't need another program to do this for you.
As of V19.0, WinPatrol becomes a "Cloud Edition". Mostly the extra features will only benefit users of the paid Plus version. One part of the WinPatrol Cloud though is a poll where the WinPatrol community of users can provide personal feedback on files that are detected. The poll data will be available to both FREE and PLUS users.
MJ Registry Watcher is another application that maybe not too many people are aware of. It is a simple registry, file and directory hooker/poller that safeguards the most important startup files, registry keys, and other more exotic registry locations commonly attacked by Trojans. It has very low resource use, and is set to poll every 30 seconds by default, although you can adjust this if required. A configuration file stores all your settings for future use. MJRW not only polls the system, but it also hooks it, so that most changes to keys, files and directories are reported instantaneously. Key deletions are still caught by the polling loop though, since they cannot be hooked. Exactly which keys and files are protected can be completely configured by the user, although the sets supplied with MJRW will cover most standard PCs. You do need better than average knowledge to get the best from this software but users in this category who prefer to combine small light applications to create a layered security solution should definitely check it out. Installation is not required, simply run the program from whichever directory you un-zip it to.
The program now also includes: Process Launch Monitoring, Folder and File Hooking, EMailing of Alerts and Quarantining of Files and Directories.
There is an active thread for this software at Wilders forum here: http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=54666 The author, Mark Jacobs, also maintains a range of other free software on his website and will respond to emails for support if requested.

The North Carolina Supreme Court has reversed a lower court's ruling ordering the release of inmates sentenced to life in prison for murder, rape and other crimes in the 1970s when the law defined a life term as 80 years behind bars.
Friday's ruling will likely keep the prisoners in question locked up for the rest of their natural lives.
Inmates sentenced to life between 1974 and 1978 were ordered to serve 80 years, but had the opportunity to reduce that time by decades through credits earned for good behavior and productive work behind bars.
The Supreme Court ruled two years ago that those convicted of first-degree murder shouldn't be released, despite whatever credits they earned. The latest ruling applies to inmates whose offenses were below premeditated murder.

Almost Home Dachshund Rescue Society
P.O. Box 9671
Greensboro, NC 27429
Meet Widget, an 8 month old, 5 pound chi-weenie who is seeking a new home where he will be understood. You see, Widget came into rescue because he had been very misunderstood. One rescue group even stated that they would likely have him euthanized because they deemed him unadoptable due to his stranger anxiety. Widget's foster mommy knew that his fear had to be stemming from somewhere and time would show that he could bloom into a loving little pup!
Widget's former home got him when he was only 6 weeks old - he was being given away in a grocery store parking lot. He was the last of the litter and the individuals who bred him were making unkind threats of what they would have to do if Widget did not get a home. Their intention at first was to take him into their home and get his vetting done, then find him a loving home. Within days of getting Widget they received news that they were going to have to move across country and Widget had a lot of upheaval at a critical time in his development at such a young age. His family had also never had a small dog before so they were not prepared for the small dog size complex that dachshunds and chihuahuas frequently develop - and they were also not expecting to get as attached as they got to Widget. Widget loved his family but was living in a home with a lot of anxiety and stress - and he began to project those emotions onto others, causing more issues for his family. So rescue was called and he came to his foster home, where he has flourished.
Widget LOVES his foster family and is extremely playful! He is a typical puppy in all regards. He likes to run and play and will fetch a ball, chew on your hand, jump in your lap, and give you tons of kisses, but most of all he just loves to snuggle with his people. Widget is great with humans of all ages in his foster home and loves the other dogs too! Widget is working on housetraining and is coming along well, but will need continued work in his new adoptive home since he is (after all) still a puppy. Widget's only real downfall is strangers - he gets very anxious and barks loudly when new people come over. We have found that the best way to introduce Widget to new friends is to hold him and let visitors pet him. This seems to help Widget feel more secure and he tends to calm down after 5-10 minutes. Widget loves to run outside with all of his foster buddies and he loves to be mischievous and entertain with his humor. He would do fine in a home with other animals and he would enjoy having human kids around to toss a ball or snuggle him.

Anaheim, CA (Sports Network) - Teemu Selanne scored the winner with 4:23 to
play as Anaheim rallied for a 4-2 win over Chicago in a battle between the two
powerhouses of the Western Conference.
Bobby Ryan had tied the game just over a minute before the Selanne goal while
Peter Holland and Sheldon Souray also scored for the Ducks, who have won seven
of their last eight to move three points back of Chicago for the top spot in
the Western Conference. Jonas Hiller posted 22 saves and also had an assist in
the win.
Jonathan Toews and Nick Leddy both scored for the Blackhawks, who had won
three straight following a two-game skid that had snapped their 24-game point
streak to open the season. Corey Crawford gave up three goals on 25 shots.

The Durango Herald reports ( http://bit.ly/17Ya7Iw) a bus transported 11 students to the hospital, and seven ambulances took the remaining 20 students after the gas leak at Ignacio Junior High School was reported at about 11:30 a.m. Monday.
The students' conditions were not immediately known.
A tank under the classroom that collected sediment from a floor drain and from the drains of several sinks in the room was plugged, causing the smell.
Authorities were uncertain about the mixture of the gas, but no explosive readings were detected.

|This article concerns a game that is unreleased.
Some details may be speculative, and may turn out to be incorrect.
The Unnamed Convertible is a soft-top convertible seen on multiple occasions in the Grand Theft Auto V trailer. Badges on the car show that it is possibly manufactured by Dewbauchee.
The front facet of this car is comprised of a range of curves. The bumper is dominated by the appearance of the four grilles. Above the front spoiler there are three grille sections all identical in height; the central section accounts for a third of the bumper's width. The largest of the four grilles is located centrally above the other three. The headlights are positioned in an impressed area of the front facet which also bulges out, they are outlined by two convex curves, however the outer can be divided into two curves. The lighting comes from two circular lamps and then an LED strip in the bottom area of the headlamp unit. Two-thirds of the bonnet/ hood width is accounted for by an elevated section a short distance behind the headlights. There is an impression either side of the elevated section that channels air into an intake.
The main body area is very linear; the main body line is straight and runs from level with the lower edge of the wheel-arch face to the level with upper edge of the rear wheel-arch face. The upper body line runs along from the top of the front flared wheel-arch through and beyond the rear flared arch, a small, black, ovular rear-view mirror rests on the point where this line meets the A-pillar. There is a retractable black soft-top that stores under a metal and fabric flip-up lid. There is an air vent parallel with the front wheel-arch curve just behind the front wheel-arch. At the point where the intake meets the main body line there is a small indicator lamp. At the bottom of the body, the lower edges of the flared arches are connected by a ledge. The car features five-spoke alloys wrapped in low profile tyres.
The rear facet of this car has an aggressive design style. The rear lights sit an impressed section of the rear feacet, a short distance from the top. The rear lights are split into three sections, the top and bottom sections having red lighting, the middle section having orange lighting and closest to the centre, white lighting. The manufacturer logo in located centrally just below the impressed area's edge. On the rear bumper, parallel to the inner edges of the rear lights there is an impressed area where the license plate is mounted. Bloew this area three-quarters of the bumper width is occupied by a CFRP diffuser unit. Either side of this unit there are stacked twin-tipped exhaust tips located in vent, whose inner edges are parallel to the outer edges of the diffuser.
This car features high-ventilation brake rotors which are coupled to red, six-piston brake calipers.
- The convertible is seen in three colors in the trailer: red, white, and blue.
- The convertible is largely reminiscent of a 2010 Aston Martin V8 Vantage with some cosmetic differences. The front of the car was reminiscent to TVR Sagaris. with added Ferrari California grille and exhaust arrangement, while other parts of the car, such as the wheel wells, seem to come from a Nissan 370Z.

Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) Testing (Diagnosis)
Diagnosis of HIV infection is primarily made through the use of serologic assays. These assays take one of two forms: antibody detection assays and specific HIV antigen (p24) procedures. The antibody assays are usually enzyme immunoassays (EIA) which are used to confirm exposure of an individual's immune system to specific viral antigens. These assays may be formatted to detect HIV-1, HIV-2, or HIV-1 and 2 simultaneously and to detect both IgM and IgG. When the initial EIA test is repeatedly positive or indeterminant, an alternative test is used to confirm the specificity of the antibodies to individual viral components. The most commonly used method is the Western Blot.
The HIV-1 core antigen (p24) test detects circulating viral antigen which may be found prior to the development of antibodies and may also be present in later stages of illness in the form of recurrent or persistent antigenemia. Its prognostic utility in HIV infection has been diminished as a result of development of sensitive viral RNA assays, and its primary use today is as a routine screening tool in potential blood donors.
In several unique situations, serologic testing alone may not reliably establish an HIV infection. This may occur because the antibody response (particularly the IgG response detected by Western Blot) has not yet developed (that is, acute retroviral syndrome), or is persistently equivocal because of inherent viral antigen variability. It is also an issue in perinatal HIV infection due to transplacental passage of maternal HIV antibody. In these situations, laboratory evidence of HIV in blood by culture, antigen assays, or proviral DNA or viral RNA assays, is required to establish a definitive determination of HIV infection.
Diagnostic testing to establish HIV infection may be indicated when there is a strong clinical suspicion supported by one or more of the following clinical findings:

A Bertie County man is charged with shooting into his neighbor's house while a woman was home.
Bertie County Sheriff John Holley says 36-year-old Dwayne Conner surrendered after about an hour standoff Monday night.
Conner is charged with two felony counts of shooting into an occupied dwelling.
Holley says a woman called 9-1-1 just before 5:00 pm saying she found a bullet hole in her bedroom wall at her home on School Road, and while she was on the phone, someone shot into her living room.
Deputies says they found the suspect across the street in his home with multiple guns and charges could be upgraded.

~SS~ Minute Army of Huge Force (Part 2)
As we ventured deeper into the forest I came to realize how beautiful the forest was. The moon was shining brightly illuminating the plants and the trees. Stars were covering the sky complementing the beautiful moon and everything was reflected throughout the still lake that we happened to came across.
I'm glad we chose this path.
Yes. For one, we found ourselves a lovely companion.
In addition, we get to enjoy such beautiful scenery. This is perfect.
You are right Exeth. This place is quite impressive.
Very true... Romantic even.
You hear that Dalos? (*Reached for Dalos's hand)
Uh! I think nature is calling me, You guys go right ahead I'll catch up! (*Very quickly ran off into deeper part of the forest)
Dalos!!! Argh! Seriously?!
(*Snickered softly) He sure can run huh?
Indeed. I recall seeing such speed accomplished by him in battles, never outside of them.
(*Grumbled softly)
Hmmm... Very odd.
What is it Ex?
I believe we've stood in this exact spot before, I remembered passing through that particular tree.
Are you sure?
Completely, I happened to have marked it with Xcelus. I also marked several others with unique symbols to ensure we don't get lost.
You're right Exeth, I recall passing through this spot as well... (*Spoke softly) I saw the unique marking while I was staring at Dalos's beautiful face...
So it is true...
What is it Zuga?
Rumor has it, that this forest is home to a colony of Magical Creatures.
The pixies...
Oh? So what kind of situation are we dealing with here?
Terrain alteration. High level protection spell. It's made to trap wanderers in an endless loop of forest path.
hmhmhm... This won't be a problem right Zu?
Hahaha, not at all of course, are you kidding me?
C'mon... follow us.
Wait! What about Dalos? He's all alone here somewhere.
Right... Then we'll just have to "discuss" this problem with the caster and nullify the spell entirely.
C'mon. I can sense their annoying auras.
Hey over here! I think I saw them, they are very small..
We maybe small but nobody can beat our spirits! Everybody come out, strike now!
Spirits? Seriously?
Woah! There are plenty of them!
Leave this place at once fiend!
Hmhmhm this is perfect
Oh hi there small beings, you look very delicious.
Don't be afraid everyone! Our might is greater! Execute paralyzing magic!
Oghh enough with the pep talk already! (*Carried out shadow attack, moved swiftly through the trees devouring hundreds of pixies)
Wow Empress Zu Jyuva, impressive as ever!
Hmph.. I've had better.
Do not retreat! We must defend our home!
Pixies, we did not come here to intrude your home. We were simply passing through to get to our destination which is Folrart kingdom. So you see...
Holy Faerie! A talking bones with six arms, the ugliest of them all!!
Let's kill them all.
Hmhm... C'mon Zuga show them what you got!
Let me show you what these ugly six arms can do. (*Multi-slashed and killed 6 pixies at once) Any more smart remarks?
Arghhh monster!!!
That's more like it!
You! You are the caster of the alteration spell! Dispel it now.
(*Ate the caster pixy whole) Well, at least I've tried to discuss it with her first...
Oh get over it! She was too corky anyway.
What was that loud and horrible voice?!
I'll kill the person whom made this confusing forest!! Groarrr!!! (*Several trees were falling down in the distant)
They're everywhere!! Everyone retreat!!! (*Ran away)
Oh Dalos... such a true hero!!
(*Burped) phew... excuse us.
Ha ha ha.. Beautiful ending as always
Opponent: Pixies the magical creatures (I guess just being magical is not enough hmhm)

Monsanto Company Stock Buy Recommendation Reiterated (MON)
TheStreet) -- Monsanto Company (NYSE: MON) has been reiterated by TheStreet Ratings as a buy with a ratings score of B- . The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, notable return on equity, good cash flow from operations, expanding profit margins and solid stock price performance. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had sub par growth in net income.Editor's Note: TheStreet ratings do not represent the views of TheStreet's staff or its contributors. Ratings are established by computer based on metrics for performance (which includes growth, stock performance, efficiency and valuation) and risk (volatility and solvency). Companies with poor cash flow or high debt levels tend to earn lower ratings in our model. NEW YORK (

- ACTIVE STOCK TRADERS: Get trading ideas for stocks under $10 for less than $6/week. Start with a 14-Day Free Trial.
- MON's debt-to-equity ratio is very low at 0.18 and is currently below that of the industry average, implying that there has been very successful management of debt levels. Along with the favorable debt-to-equity ratio, the company maintains an adequate quick ratio of 1.45, which illustrates the ability to avoid short-term cash problems.
- The return on equity has improved slightly when compared to the same quarter one year prior. This can be construed as a modest strength in the organization. Compared to other companies in the Chemicals industry and the overall market on the basis of return on equity, MONSANTO CO has underperformed in comparison with the industry average, but has exceeded that of the S&P 500.
- Net operating cash flow has increased to $2,198.00 million or 17.54% when compared to the same quarter last year. Despite an increase in cash flow, MONSANTO CO's average is still marginally south of the industry average growth rate of 18.09%.
- MONSANTO CO has exprienced a steep decline in earnings per share in the most recent quarter in comparison to its performance from the same quarter a year ago. This company has reported somewhat volatile earnings recently. But, we feel it is poised for EPS growth in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, MONSANTO CO increased its bottom line by earning $3.78 versus $2.96 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($4.38 versus $3.78).
- MON, with its decline in revenue, slightly underperformed the industry average of 5.3%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly dropped by 6.1%. Weakness in the company's revenue seems to have hurt the bottom line, decreasing earnings per share.

My first step into anything with eggnog happened last year. I first made these Eggnog muffins, that were a big hit all around. I have made them again this year, and they are currently in my freezer. The other thing I tried last year was a coffee cake. It was another huge hit. But, I didn't make it until January, so it was way past eggnog posting season
My 7 year old remembered both the coffee cake and the muffins, and requested them as soon as he saw eggnog in the store. So this year, I am posting in prime eggnog season! My son loves this so much, he is already requesting that we make it again. I am thinking of trying to freeze some of it this time; anyone know if that will work? Very similar texture to quick breads and muffins, so I can't see it being a problem.
This is full of nutmeg and eggnog flavor. It would be a perfect breakfast to have waiting for you on Christmas morning. You could bake it up the night before, and just reheat in the oven for a few minutes to have a fresh and warm breakfast. Even if you are not an eggnog drinker (none of us here are), trust me, you will LOVE this coffee cake!

- — Carl Johnson
- "Gimme a number 9, just like his."
- — Ryder
- "Let me get a number 6 with extra dip."
- — Sweet
- "I'll have two number 9s, a number 9 large, a number 6 with extra dip, a number 7, two number 45s, one with cheese, and a large soda."
- — Big Smoke
Drive-Thru is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas given to protagonist Carl Johnson by his brother and Grove Street Families leader Sweet from his home in the Grove Street cul-de-sac in the Ganton district of Los Santos, San Andreas.
Carl finds Sweet, Big Smoke and Ryder as he comes in his brother's house. Big Smoke suggests getting something to eat, and Carl drives them to the Cluckin' Bell in Willowfield where they order their food. Whilst they are eating their food, Ryder spots some Kilo Tray Ballas gang members in a Voodoo watching them and heading towards Ganton. The Ballas car turns around and performs a drive-by on Sweet's vehicle.
Carl drives after the Ballas, whilst Sweet and Ryder shoot at the car, eventually destroying it. Smoke decides to eat everybody's food instead of helping the team attack the Balla gang car. Carl drives then back to Ganton, before driving Big Smoke back to his home in Idlewood.
Mission objectives
In order to complete the mission the player must:
- Get in the car
- Drive to the Cluckin' Bell drive thru
- Chase down the gang car before they cap your homies
- Kill the Ballas gang members
- Go back to Sweet's house
- Drive Smoke to his house
Post mission phone call
Carl Johnson: Yeah?
Sweet Johnson: Hey, CJ, it's Sweet.
Carl Johnson: Hey, wassup?
Sweet Johnson: If you don't respect your body, ain't nobody going to respect you! You're too skinny, CJ, you need to pack on some muscle!
Carl Johnson: If I wanted nagging, I'd buy a clockwork wife!
Sweet Johnson: Just looking out for you, homie. It's all show and respect, you know?
Carl Johnson: Yeah, I guess.
Sweet Johnson: There's a gym I go to a couple blocks out from the Grove. Go check it out and get yo'self a gangsta's physique.
Carl Johnson: I'll scope it out. Later, man.
The rewards for completing the mission are $200 and an increase in respect. The mission Nines and AKs. The Gyms across the State of San Andreas are available for use after receiving the phone call from Sweet.
Video Walkthrough
|PC Version - GTASeriesVideos
- In this mission, the Ballas are seen using a Voodoo with tinted windows. This is odd since the Ballas do not use the Voodoo as a gang car, but instead, the Grove Street Families use the Voodoo as a gang car. The same pink Voodoo is also seen in the mission Sweet & Kendl.
- At the end of the mission, the Greenwood will be fireproof.
- Even though they go to Cluckin' Bell Drive-Thru, Ryder can be seen taking a box from Big Smoke with the Burger Shot logo on it.
- This is the only time the player gets to use the drive-thru at this location; other visits have to be via through the front door.
- During the cutscene in the drive-thru, notice that after the four make their orders at the menu part, Smoke picks up the food at the same spot but the pick-up window is on the other side of the building
- The song playing during the cutscene at Cluckin Bell is B.Y.S by Gang Starr.
- When CJ, Smoke, Ryder, and Sweet enter the Greenwood, Ryder will take the passenger seat, Smoke will take the seat behind CJ, and Sweet will sit behind Ryder. However, when they arrive back in Grove street, Sweet will come out of Smoke's door, and while driving to Smoke's house, he will be sitting where Sweet was.
- Despite that fact that Sweet tells you to work out, he is just as skinny, if not skinnier, than CJ.
- The Pink Voodoo appears on a GTA SA Screenshot.
- SPOILER WARNING - Smoke's refusal to help CJ, Sweet and Ryder foreshadows a major plot twist that occurs a bit later in the game.
- Even though Smoke doesn't help you in this mission, it doesn't give away anything to the game plot because in the mission Drive By, he gladly shoots Ballas.

Grad Profiles highlight the personal and professional stories of Founder Institute Graduates from across the globe.
This profile on CauseVox, a graduate of the Washington DC Founder Institute, was written by Emma Tzeng. Founded in 2009 by Robert Wu and Jefferson Chang, CauseVox helps nonprofit organizations realize their fundraising goals through crowdfunding.
Fundraising is never easy, especially without the right tools. Startup CauseVox understands this. That's why it's set out to help nonprofits raise funds through its crowdfunding platform.
Founded in 2009 by Robert Wu and Jefferson Chang, CauseVox was built as a result of the duo's own struggle to raise money for a pro bono marketing and IT support project for Action for Children, a Kampala-based NGO that assists children and families at risk of falling into poverty and exposure to HIV/AIDS. Recognizing the lack of easy-to-use online tools for raising money online, Wu and Chang got to work building a platform themselves to fundraise for their project.
The results far surpassed their expectations.
"We were overwhelmed by the response from our friends and family through the prototype," Wu recalls in an interview with Bootstrappist. "We began asking ourselves how this tool can help other people."
After speaking with donors, supporters, and nonprofit organizations, Wu and Chang learned that using technology to fundraise was a huge challenge for small and medium nonprofits. CauseVox aims to fill this need by offering the technology that nonprofits need to initiate and manage online fundraising at an affordable price.
Any nonprofit can try CauseVox free of charge. When donations surpass $3,000 total, organizations are given to transition into a paid membership plan at $39 a month. CauseVox also charges a flat fee for donations made over its platform.
CauseVox launched privately in the summer of 2010; and within the following six months, it helped several organizations raise a sum total of over $400,000. The startup's approach differs from other fundraising tools on the market because of its ability to allow nonprofits to completely customize the look and feel of their pages, giving each organization an opportunity to tell its own unique story.
As CauseVox continues to grow, its mission to champion for nonprofits seeking to make a positive dent on the universe is certainly a worthy one to get behind.
"While in Uganda, visiting and living in the slums, we were struck by the poverty and need we saw," Wu recounts. "We were also struck by the difference and impact that nonprofits make. The world could be so much better, but without nonprofits, the world would be much worse."

Field Notes is the San Diego Natural History Museum magazine designed exclusively for members and donors of the Museum. Field Notes is published three times a year and showcases Museum research, exhibitions, public programs, news, and events.
Established in 1874, the San Diego Natural History Museum is one of California's oldest and most respected cultural and scientific institutions. Help us to fulfill our mission in the coming year. Here are some ways you can contribute.
Most of our members know about the valuable work our Docents perform with their Museum-On-Wheels program, which takes the Docents out to schools around the county, inspiring local kids to learn about the natural history of our San Diego region. But are you aware that they are carrying on a long-held tradition at the Museum? In the photo above, taken during the 1920s, Museum staff are shown visiting schools in the area, bringing wooden boxes which contained birds, mammals, and other nature specimens for the children to borrow and study.
Today, our Docents travel in a van sporting brightly-colored snakes, plants, and insects rather than in a plain 1920s-era truck, but the enthusiasm of the children remains the same!
Read more from the archives of Museum Field Note publications.
Clinton G. Abbott, Director of the SanDiego Natural History Museum for 24 years (1922–1946), is shown in this photo from 1924. Abbott is sitting in the Museum truck,surrounded by ocotillos in the area near Agua Caliente in the Anza Borrego desert. Abbott,born in England to American parents, came to San Diego from Albany, NY, in 1921. His work at the Museum made a significant impact on the international conservation of marine mammals, as well as other animals and plants.

How can I visualize which folders and files are taking up all of the space on my hard drive?
I'm getting some conflicting reports on the size of hard drive contents. Namely what is and isn't there and what folders are actually using the space.
I need to know which of the files or folders the culprits behind all this hidden bloat.

The Taiwanese giant Asus is readying an eBook offer, with probably a low-cost reader and a deluxe version, just as Amazon and Sony are offering. It seems to be a promising new player to boost the eReading market, but so far, Asus is keeping most of its technological and marketing cards secret. As an example, will it use an LCD display (it would be risky), or E Ink technology? Will it be available worldwide? Can we expect something for Christmas? What about its 3G connectivity?
News started to leak in the press that Asus is preparing to launch an eBook reader device that, according to a recent article in the Sunday Times, "has a hinged spine, like a printed book. This, in theory, enables its owner to read an ebook much like a normal book, using the touchscreen to 'turn' the pages from one screen to the next. It also gives the user the option of seeing the text on one screen while browsing a web page on the other. One of the screens could also act as a virtual keypad for the device to be used like a laptop. Whereas current eBook readers have monochrome screens, the Asus would be full colour. The maker says it may also feature 'speakers, a webcam and a mic for Skype,' allowing cheap phone calls over the internet." (http://technology.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/tech_and_web/article6822723.ece) .
Prototype shown at CeBit
At CeBit 2009 in March, Asus was already showing a tablet PC prototype with a double (touch) screen. It was one of the first products issued of its Community design initiative (www.WePC.com), launched together with Intel and aimed at using ideas from customers to create new products.
At CeBit, Asus was describing this new device like this: "The dual panel offers a flexible working space in which users can adapt to suit their prevailing usage scenarios, for example adjusting the size of the virtual touchpad and keyboard. Through hand gestures, handwriting recognition, and multitouch, users are presented with a control surface that is both flexible and intuitive. Users can use the dual-panel concept in a myriad of usage scenarios, for example as a conventional notebook with multitouch screens, a virtual keyboard and touchpad; a multimedia hub, in which both dual panels could combine to form a larger display for widescreen entertainment; or an E-book mode in which users can hold the dual panel concept notebook just like they would a conventional book while flipping pages through intuitive gestures or by touch."

INDIANA (www.incnow.tv) - Health officials, who are developing a state-wide trauma system, say the Hoosier state needs more trauma centers.
State officials just wrapped-up a listening tour, discovered that only 58-percent of Indiana residents live within 45-minutes of one of the state's eight trauma centers.
Three are in Indy, two each in both Fort Wayne and Evansville and one in South Bend.
Trauma injuries are the top killer of Hoosiers under age 45.

- "Mental that one, I'm telling you."
- —Ronald Weasley giving his considered view of Hermione Granger.[src]
Insanity, also known as madness, is a general term for certain abnormal behavioural patterns, typically associated with those suffering from mental illness.[1] Those suffering from insanity often cannot interact with normal society, and frequently require long-term treatment in a medical facility such as St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries. Prolonged exposure to certain curses, such as the Cruciatus Curse or the Imperius Curse, may cause this condition. It can also be inflicted by certain types of potions, either temporarily or permanently, such as the Drink of Despair[2] and possibly Essence of Insanity. Listening to Fwooper song for a sufficiently long period can also cause this condition.[3] Shock Spells may be a treatment for this condition.
In 1991, as Vernon Dursley wildly drove the Dursley family and Harry Potter to various locations in the hope of shaking off following wizards, Dudley Dursley ventured the suggestion that he had gone mad.[4]
In his earlier years at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Ronald Weasley, particularly in the early stages of their association, often claimed that Hermione Granger was insane because she was clever, read excessively and for pleasure, and retained information which was never of adequate interest for him to notice it.
Starting in the summer of 1995, the Daily Prophet, under pressure from the British Ministry of Magic, ran a smear campaign claiming, among other things, that Harry Potter's assertion that Lord Voldemort had returned was a sign that he had gone insane, which only ended when Voldemort's return was proven following the Battle of the Department of Mysteries.
Peeves made this claim of Remus Lupin with a tune to match. "Lupin! Loony, loony, Lupin!"
Known insane individuals
- Lupin: "Don't be a fool, Severus."
- Black: "He can't help it. It's a habit by now."
- — Black and Lupin talking about Snape[src]
- According to Albus Dumbledore, people have been driven to insanity attempting to realise the visions provided by the Mirror of Erised.
- As Uric the Oddball is known to have listened to Fwooper song for several months non-stop, as well as to have engaged in various eccentric behaviours, he was most likely insane.[3] Also the look on his face and his jellyfish-hat lead to this belief.
- According to legend, Snickerton became insane following an attempt to have rival tailor Delfina Crimp arrested for being a witch. He found himself unable to make clothing without it being torn to shreds, and held the delusion that he was being stalked by a giant pair of invisible scissors, though it is more likely that Crimp followed him throughout his life and shredded his clothing with her Severing Charm.[5]
- Frank and Alice Longbottom were driven insane due to prolonged exposure to the Cruciatus Curse by Bartemius Crouch Jr. and the Lestranges. They were resident permanently in the Janus Thickey Ward of St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries, and no longer seemed to recognise their son.[6]
- An old Muggle tramp Harry Potter saw when shopping with the Dursleys apparently was insane, as he was talking to a person who was not there.[7]
- Bartemius Crouch Sr. became insane after continual usage of the Imperius Curse on him by Lord Voldemort. When Harry Potter and Viktor Krum found him on the edge of the Forbidden Forest in 1995, he wildly shifted back and forth between coherence and statements to his surroundings, and believed it was several months earlier and he was dictating instructions to his assistant, Percy Weasley.[7]
- Bartemius Crouch Jr. was considered insane by Cornelius Fudge, and therefore his testimony was not credible.[8] Though his confession was true, Crouch demonstrated his instability with his deranged look throughout his interrogation, and Harry proclaimed him mad for showing glee at killing his father.[9]

Student Success Stories
Supplemental Instruction (SI)
"I attended SI because I wanted to do well in my anatomy and physiology class. It was very important to my career that I do very well in this class and make an A and to fully comprehend the material. SI helped me because it gave me the confidence and good study skills… I made an A in the course."
- Kimmi Dillard
"I wanted to stay on top of things and make the best grade. What I've learned in SI is how to improve my study habits and how to read the book more carefully and actually how to put more time into studying. Not just studying for a long time but studying smart. I've enjoyed it very much."
-Logan Embry
The Language Center
"I felt like I found a gold mine of resources when I found the Language Center. When I started last year, I had never written a paper and had no idea about MLA formatting. Now, I finish the paper on my own and go in for final thoughts and suggestions. The tutors guided me every step of the way through English 1010 and 1020. They have not only helped me with papers for all of my classes, but even with my resume and scholarship applications."
-Paul Farmer

Ash and his friends encounter a Darumaka, while another one steals their lunch. Ash sends Oshawott to battle them, but it is defeated. Nurse Joy tells the gang that the Darumaka have been stealing food all over the town. When the Darumaka steals food from Pokemon Center, Ash and friends chase them to the clocktower. Inside, the Darumaka point Ash and friends to a Darmanitan in Zen Mode to prevent one of the bells from falling down. Ash and Cilan make a new hook to hang the bell, and are helped by Darmanitan attach it with its psychic powers, before taking itself out of the Zen Mode to finally fix the clocktower's bell.
Ash, Iris and Cilan are about to have lunch, but trouble arises. Iris's Axew saw that his food has been taken and thinks Ash's Pikachu ate it. However, Cilan saw that even his own food has been missing, when the gang sees a Darumaka.
The Darumaka seals itself, and when Ash tries to ponder to wake it up, it breathe fire, scorching Ash's face. The 2 Darumaka go away, while Ash, Cilan and Iris try to catch them, but without effort.
The gang goes to Pokemon center, when Nurse Joy tells them that Darumaka have not been causing trouble for years, but they began to steal food from people. Iris spotted a tower, while Nurse Joy told that the tower is going to be destroyed, as it was not renovated for some years. At the same night, Ash, Cilan and Iris decide to track the Darumaka. They saw the 2 Darumakas going and they track them, but the Darumakas manage to flee.
Elsewhere, Team Rocket meet Pierce, their new informant. Pierce gives them a briefcase to which they accept.
Ash, Iris and Cilan see the Darumakas again, entering the tower. The gang followed the Darumakas, trying to understand why they stole the food. The Darumakas showed that Darmanitan, in Zen mode, is keeping the bell (which should have fallen) at bay. However, he needs food to sustain the energy to keep the bell.
Ash brings Tepig and Oshawott, while Cilan his Pansage out to repair the bell. With some effort, they attach the bell to a pole! In the end, The Darumakas and the Darmanitan wave at Ash, Iris and Cilan while they leave the town.
