I am looking to purchase MacBook Pro. But I know that they are quite expensive as compared to the all the other laptop brand available in the market. So any of the users can tell me why MacBook Pro are so expensive?
Macbook pro having faster processor called as i7 processor. Macbook pro is machine from single piece of aluminum, an engineering breakthrough that replaced many parts with just once.it is called unibody.Its Infrastructure is very nice than other laptop.it is well polished and refined. Other thing about this laptop is having good attractive display bacsuse it has just made by Led Screen.Touchpad is also very nice as compared to the other laptop.Now coming to the USB port , the connection and port on macbook pro-Magsafe Power, Gigabyte Ethernet, Thunderbolt and along with SDXC and USB input and output are smartly Integrated at side of notebook.
Yes, you said I completely agree with you but it involved so many feature along with you have explained above. If you consider configuration of that laptop it has height about 0.95 inches(2.41cm),width is 14.35 inches(36.4cm),Depth is 9.82 inches (24.9cm) and the weight is 5.6 pounds(2.54kg).Now coming to the communication it cantons wi-fi wireless networking and Bluetooth 2.1EDR(Enhance Data Rate).If you battery and power of this macbook pro look very different from others.Built in 77.5 –wat-hours .Magsafe power port.
Including all above feature so we can say that the price of that particular macbook pro is high.Along with this I just wanted to know what is the unique feature of this macbook pro.
The unique feature of this macbook pro is It contains TTS technology which means Text-to -speech .That can read aloud selection of text and Entire document. Mac TTS includes various male and female Voice. Built in spelling checking and grammar checking.Its really beneficial for children.
I have been using macbook pro for a while now and also have used sony, hp, dell laptops earlier. Regarding the price, i would say macbook pro is worth the price you pay. All features are by far excellent, compared to other laptops. Do not think about investing more in macbook pro, because your macbook pro is going to last longer than other laptops and at the end, you are going to invest the same amount of money - either buy 2 laptops in couple of years or use just one macbook pro for couple of years.

Estimates, Imprest Supply and Supplementary Estimates
On Tuesday, 21 June the House is to debate the second readings of the Appropriation (2010/2011 Supplementary Estimates) Bill and the Imprest Supply (First for 2011/12) Bill. This 3-hour combined debate is part of the process for ensuring parliamentary oversight of the spending of public money. It will be followed by consideration of two amendments to the Supplementary Estimates bill by the House in Committee.
The Estimates are the Government's spending plans for the coming financial year. They are published as part of the Budget documents on the day the Budget is delivered (19 May in 2011). The Budget process involves the scrutiny of the Estimates and, ultimately, their approval by Parliament through the passing of an Appropriation Bill. They are a key mechanism for ensuring parliamentary oversight of the spending of public money.
The Estimates are arranged into 'Votes', which correspond to ministerial portfolios - for example, Vote Education, Vote Health, Vote Internal Affairs. They are referred to select committees for scrutiny. Select committees will often hear evidence from the Minister responsible for a Vote and from the departmental officials who administer it. These meetings may be open to the public.
Select committees have 2 months from Budget day to report on their examination of each Vote. The committee report on a Vote recommends to the House whether it should authorise the Government's proposed expenditure.
Select committee reports on the Estimates will be published on this website.
Imprest Supply and Supplementary Estimates
Since the main Appropriation Bill approving the Estimates for the next financial year will not be passed until after that year starts (on 1 July 2011), the Government needs interim authority to cover public spending in the meantime. This interim authority is provided through the passing of an Imprest Supply Bill before the end of June. An Imprest Supply Bill also may provide interim authority for the Government to adjust its activities or respond to unexpected situations, and it is not unusual for more than one such bill to be passed in each financial year.
Spending that occurs under the authority of an Imprest Supply Bill must later be approved through another Appropriation Bill, which is accompanied by further detailed documents known as "Supplementary Estimates". The Supplementary Estimates covering changes to spending and liabilities during the closing (2010/11) financial year were presented by the Minister of Finance on Budget day, and were referred to the Finance and Expenditure Committee (one of the select committees) for examination. The Appropriation Bill to approve these Supplementary Estimates for the closing financial year will be passed before the end of June, probably alongside the first Imprest Supply Bill for the new financial year.
One unusual feature this year is the consideration of amendments to the Supplementary Estimates by the House in Committee. No Committee of the whole House stage is required for an Appropriation (Supplementary Estimates) bill unless changes to the Supplementary Estimates are proposed by the Minister or by a select committee. This year, the Government has proposed additional spending in relation to recovery following the Canterbury earthquakes. Details of the Supplementary Estimates needed for this purpose could not be finalised between the earthquake on 22 February 2011 and Budget day, meaning an addition to the Supplementary Estimates is necessary. The Finance and Expenditure Committee considered this additional spending separately and reported to the House.

Learn about sponsoring this memorial...
May 8, 1927
Mar. 21, 2011
JOSEPH CLARK HOOKER, 83, of Cordova, TN, passed away peacefully March 21, 2011 after a brief illness. He was surrounded by family and friends. J.C. or Joe, "Jaybird" or "TaTa" or "Handsome," were frequent names he was called by family and those who knew him and loved him. He leaves his wife of 54 years, Jane Howles Hooker, and two sons, Dennis C. Hooker of Louisville, KY and Derrel C. Hooker of Miami, FL; one daughter, Jana Hooker McCormack of Tumbling Shoals, AR; one brother, Bobby Hooker of Oakland, TN; three sisters, Malissa Greer of Eads, TN, Agnes Luster of Eads, TN and Evangeline Rutledge of Augusta, GA. He was preceded in death by his daughter, Carol Hooker Palmer , and his parents, Frederic A. Hooker and N. Ruby Bryan of Eads, TN, two brothers, James F. Hooker and "Buddy" Hooker, KIA during WWII, sisters, Lula Coulter, Thelma Lemons and Burnice Ligon. J.C. attended Cordova and Germantown High Schools and left to attend the Hooker Farm of 156 acres when his older brothers left for the service. He was an All-Army boxer who later sparred with National Karate Champion Bill "Superfoot" Wallace. During the Army, he served as a high speed radio operator in the 3118th Signal Service Group and served in Frankfurt Au Main, Germany in the first occupation group at the close of the war. Later Joe served in the Merchant Marines on the Great Lakes on the Louis W. Hill. The cold got to him and he missed his mother's "Southern Biscuits". Joe was the owner of Hooker Drywall Service and was proud of his "Quality Service" lifetime guarantee on his work. After retirement, he began to enjoy more recreational activities such as motorcycle trips to Mexico, Canada, Alaska, and 48 states. His love of Mexico brought him back for 18 years on personal mission trips to Baja, CA, and San Ignacio taking bicycles, bedding, clothing, generators, etc. He taught himself Spanish and could write it and speak conversationally. He loved baseball and as a young person, he played A league softball as centerfielder, sponsored and played basketball with Treadwell High School students well into his forties. Gardening on a big scale, with his wife, Jane and Elma Roane was a favorite pastime as well. Also, he always wanted to fly, so he bought himself a Cessna 172 Skyhawk and flew cross-country with family and friends even to the bottom of the Grand Canyon. Joe's true love was his family and their sport and recreational activities. He provided them with opportunities first before he started his adventures. He is survived by his precious grandchildren, Jordan, Cage and Katie Hooker, Tucker and Buck McCormack and Brittany Palmer , and great-grandson, his everyday joy, Gabriel Schwaun. Pallbearers to serve are: Jordan Hooker, Phil Rountree, Robert Nelson, George Thomas, James Gann, Roger Epperson and Honorary pallbearers, Cage Hooker, Tucker McCormack, James "Buck" McCormack and Michael Gabriel Palmer . Visitation was Wednesday, March 23 from 4-7 p.m. at Bethany Christian Church and Funeral Service will be 1 p.m. at Bethany Christian Church. Burial will be in the Bethany Cemetery .

Very nice looking!
Got my Form 1 paperwork in yesterday so Ive been up all night machining and welding. Off to the engraver right now but heres the fruit of my labor. This is a 12 inch long stainless steel silencer with 5 K baffles , two parabolic baffles and a 2 point mount. Everything is 304 stainless and the rifle and can are finished in epoxy powder coat.
Don't know yet. I'm going shooting this weekend and I'll let you know. Shoudnt be stupid quiet with milspec ammo but the muzzle blast will be all but gone. The bullets sonic crack will probably sound about like a 22 short fired from a pistol. with subsonic ammo it will be stupid quiet. In any case it will be hearing safe.
Do you have any other pictures of the internals and the lay out ect? looks good buy the way.
No I only took one baffle pic . Theres just five of those stacked up and welded together so the lower hole lines up with the relief on top. Then I pressed it all in the tube and welded it together. Pretty much a scaled up copy of my gem-tech outback 2
Video! Shoot some Video! Cool that your form 1 was approved.
Freedom is not free. Some will perish to preserve it for the many. Just as our Forefathers did before us, we must take up the battle and not waver. Victory is our only option.
Its not really a question of IF they get approved. If all the paperwork is there they pretty much dont have a choice. Its more WHEN they get approved that can be nerve wracking . It was 11 weeks on that one and that was a trust form 1 silencer that didnt need a background check or any of that. The ATF is seriously backlogged.
A shame that many locales don't allow "silenced" firearms for hunting. But, off to the range and no need for earmuffs, sweet!
A great looking build, but we all knew it would be so.

NLC Urges Tax Protection for Municipally-Owned Utilities: Would Affect 1000 Localities
Shafroth, Frank, Nation's Cities Weekly
NLC urged the federal government to modify its proposed tax rules to ensure that the more than 1,000 localities that operate or own their own electric utilities can continue to provide services to their businesses and citizens with municipal tax-exempt bond financing as states and the federal government restructure the nation's electric utility industry.
"The financing of public purpose facilities, including public power, through the issuance of tax-exempt debt is a critical component of the ability of the nation's municipal governments' abilities to serve the public infrastructure and service needs of their citizens," the comments read.
"It is an important part of the concept of federalism, mirroring the federal government's exemption from state and local taxes on its debt."
The comments refer to the Internal Revenue Service's (IRS) proposed Temporary and Proposed Regulations with regard to the authority of municipalities to issue municipal bonds in compliance with state and federal laws affecting the supply of electrical energy.
The U.S. Treasury early this year had issued long-awaited, temporary rules to provide guidance to state and local governments to clarify how municipally-owned electric utilities can participate in an electric utility-deregulated market without jeopardizing either existing outstanding tax-exempt municipal bonds or their authority to issue future such bonds.
The rules, which would last for three years, are important to cities that own or operate their own power utilities as a growing number of states act on electric utility restructuring legislation and as Congress begins to consider legislation which would affect municipal tax-exempt authority.
The proposed rules would change existing so-called "private use" rules affecting over $70 billion worth of outstanding municipal bonds. Current federal laws set a federal trigger or cap on the amount of nongovernmental use or electric consumption of a municipality's facilities or power output a city may provide before losing its tax-exempt municipal bond authority. Generally, the new rules would replace the existing so-called "private use" IRS rules to protect the tax-exempt status of municipalities which opened their service areas and/or transmission facilities in a manner to permit nondiscriminatory open access. The rules would continue to bar cities from issuing tax-exempt municipal bonds for the purpose of expanding utility services to compete outside current boundaries.
Key changes in the new rules would preserve a city's tax-exempt authority:
* where an Independent System Operator (ISO) operated, managed, or ran - but did not own - a municipal utility's transmission lines;
* where a city sold excess generation capacity created through an open access market through non-renewable contracts of no longer than three years; or
* where cities entered into certain kinds of short term contracts to supply power to private users.
NLC wrote that cities appreciated the effort of the IRS to provide guidance in response to the concerns of the nation's cities and towns to ensure a transformation to a restructured electric utility industry. …

Autographed Photo of the Entire NASA STS-29 Crew!
- Sold for: Start Free Trial or Sign In to see what it's worth.
- Item Category: Books, Paper & Magazines
- Source: eBay
- Sold Date: Apr 24, 2008
- Channel: Auction House
This is a 8x10 photo autographed by the entire NASA STS-29 crew - Mike Coats (Commander), John Blaha (Pilot), James Bagian (Mission Specialist), Robert Springer (Mission Specialist), and James Buchli (Mission Specialist). The signatures are authentic (I guarantee it). The item is in excellent condition.STS-29 was a Space Shuttle Discovery mission to insert a Tracking and Data Relay Satellite (TDRS) into Earth's orbit. It was the third mission after the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster , and launched from Kennedy Space Center, Florida on March 13, 1989. The Space Shuttle Discovery lifted off from Pad B, Launch Complex 39, KSC, at 9:57 a.m. EST on March 13, 1989. Launch was originally scheduled for February 18, but was postponed to allow for replacement of suspect liquid oxygen turbopumps on the three main engines. The new target date of March 11 could not be made because of the failure of a master event controller when it was powered up during prelaunch checkout. The controller was replaced. On the rescheduled launch day of March 13, liftoff was held at T-9 minutes for nearly two hours because of ground fog and high upper winds. A waiver was approved for orbiter wing loads. This was the eighth flight of Discovery and the 28th Space Shuttle mission. The primary payload was the third and final component of the Tracking and Data Relay Satellite (TDRS) constellation in geosynchronous orbit. The three on-orbit satellites were stationed over the equator at about 22,300 miles above Earth; two of them 130 degrees apart and a third located between them as an on-orbit spare. Landing occurred March 18, 1989, on orbit 80, one orbit earlier than planned, in order to avoid possible excessive wind buildup expected at the landing site. Touchdown was on Runway 22 at Edwards AFB, CA, at 9:35 a.m. EST. Total mission elapsed time was 4 days, 23 hours, and 39 minutes.

Del. House votes to restrict driver cell phone use
DOVER, Del. The state House has passed a bill that restricts the use of cell phones by drivers on Delaware roads.
The bill was approved on a 33-to-5 vote Thursday. It prohibits talking on a cell phone while driving unless using a handsfree device. The bill also bans texting or e-mailing while driving.
Lawmakers approved several amendments before voting on the bill. One exempts farmers driving farm trucks or operating farm equipment. Another allows a driver to use his hands to dial a number before using the handsfree device to talk.
The bill, which exempts police, firefighters and other emergency personnel on duty, carries penalties of $50 for first-offense violators and up to $200 for subsequent offenses.
The measure now goes to the Senate.

Mumbai, Nov 21 Shahid Kapoor, who is here after his Spanish vacation, is trying to complete his ad shoots before he finalises new film projects. In one of the commercials, he has teamed up with Priyanka Chopra.
He shot two ads Wednesday in Madh Island on two adjacent sets - one for a paint brand and the other for a coffee brand, the latter with Priyanka which required them to splash water on one another in a garden.
We asked Shahid about his double-ad shoot and he said: 'It was just another working day. What's there to say?'
Shahid and Priyanka are also shooting for Kunal Kohli's untitled film together and while shooting the ad both the actors tried to keep as much cordiality as possible. But apparently the duo simply refused to give joint bytes to the waiting television journalists who had gathered at the venue of the ad-shoot.
This refusal was most surprising in the light of the fact that media-persons had been invited to cover the shooting as a Shahid-Priyanka event.
Interestingly, director Ayaan Mukerjee, close friend of Shahid's, was also present at the venue to shoot another ad with Shahid.
'Shahid wouldn't budge from his no-joint-bytes stance, and Priyanka agreed with him. They both felt that at this point in their working relationship, the last thing they needed was televised togetherness,' said a source.

I want a 50's style bedroom!
I really, really, want to have separate beds. My husband will not understand this, and thinks that I don't love him because I want to sleep in my own bed. Why do I want my own bed?
Well, I want to be able to get a good night's sleep and feel great in the morning. This doesn't happen when we share a bed because he kicks, bounces, and elbows me all night long. Sure, he's asleep at the time so I can't get mad at him for that, but why won't he understand that we should have separate beds?? I mean honestly, it's not good! I have tried to sleep in the same bed for all of our years together and it's just not something that I can adjust to.
I think a lot of it is that he is worride what his family or other people may say if they saw that we had separate beds, but I know that many couples do this. In fact, it's even a trend in newer homes to have separate sleeping rooms now in the master bedroom. What can I say to convince him? I have tried just about everything I can think of, and sure our bed room would be wall to wall beds, but at least we could get some sleep!

What we learn from the arts, we learn for life
Art is a lifelong love that can begin young. So, we have as many programs in Visual and Performing Arts as there are incredible ideas in a child's mind. Which is a lot. A whole lot. And though we're interested in cultivating artists, ultimately what we do is cultivate an environment.

Jail, drug-offender probation after six beers and a wild ride
Published: Wednesday, April 30, 2014 at 4:43 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, April 30, 2014 at 4:43 p.m.
A man who said he consumed six beers before getting behind the wheel and almost causing several accidents has been sentenced to drug-offender probation and jail time.
German Hernandez Vazquez, 30, has accepted a plea agreement from the State Attorney's Office and pleaded no contest to misdemeanor counts of DUI and no valid driver's license, in addition to a third-degree felony: possession of cocaine.
Circuit Judge Robert Hodges withheld adjudication on both the drug and driver's license charges.
Vazquez will now serve 18 months of drug-offender probation for the drug charge, concurrent with 12 months of probation on the DUI charge. He must complete 60 hours of community service within the first 11 months of probation, according to court documents. He also must complete a substance abuse course and an alcohol abuse evaluation within 30 days.
Vazquez was sentenced to 49 days in the Marion County Jail, but a 49-day credit for time served pending resolution of the case was applied.
Vazquez will have his vehicle impounded for 10 days at his own expense.
On March 10, witnesses told law officers they watched a red Chevy traveling in the 10000 block of U.S. 27 at about 80 mph. The Chevy almost sideswiped one car and nearly caused several other accidents, according to a report from law enforcement.
Marion County Sheriff's Deputy Jesse Terrell noticed the car driving erratically and pulled Vazquez over. He noted the defendant smelled of alcohol, and cocaine was found in his wallet.
Vazquez's blood alcohol tests results were 0.282, 0.305 and 0.293, all higher than the state's legal limit of 0.08.

Last year I left FYF Fest early because the bathroom lines were insane. It was dark and there were trees everywhere, but in some states you can end up on the sex offender list for public urination so I felt it best to head home. If you'd asked me last year if I'd be returning for FYF 2014 I would have said Hellllllllllll Nooooo. But it's 2014 and there I was.
FYF Fest is like one of your crazy rich friends that doesn't know what to do with their money. They know they want to throw a big party, you know you like parties, but you also know that this crazy rich friend is not that great at throwing parties. However, there will be a sweet buffet. Maybe they got the In N' Out truck. Maybe the Workaholics guys will be there. Are you not going to go to your friend's party? Are you going to miss meeting the Workaholics guys because you can't stand in a bathroom line and you're too afraid of ending up on a list to simply run outside and pee in the backyard?

Harris back at practice, says he's fine now
St. Francis - Bucks rookie forward Tobias Harris took part in a full practice Monday for the first time in eight days, after suffering deyhdration issues during the third session of training camp on Dec. 11.
Harris and Larry Sanders both were on the practice floor at the Cousins Center. Sanders and Harris both were hospitalized for two nights due to dehydration.
Harris played 7 minutes in the Bucks' 117-96 preseason loss at Minnesota on Saturday, while Sanders did not play.
"I've been off for a little bit with the deyhdration, so I just have to stay hydrated," said Harris, who grabbed two bottles of water for the Bucks' bus trip to Children's Hospital of Wisconsin for an afternoon appearance.
"I knew going into the game it was limited minutes, but I just tried to make the best out of everything and play my game while I was out there."
Harris said he was on a 4-to-8 minute limit from doctors for the opening game, and he is hoping his minutes will be extended when the Bucks and Timberwolves meet again in the MACC Fund Game on Wednesday night at the Bradley Center.
"Getting out there was a blessing and it felt good being out there," Harris said. "I didn't want to get in there and be a non-factor. I wanted to be somebody who could help the team."
Bucks rookie forward Jon Leuer led the team with 18 points in 22 minutes against the Timberwolves.
"We'll keep looking at Jon," Bucks coach Scott Skiles said. "He's been good in here (practice), too. For a lot of rookies the perform-every-day mode is a little bit different, so we'll see.
"I'm planning on playing him again Wednesday night and see how he does. If there is any drawback about this, there's less time to evaluate guys that may or may not play. So we've got to make some pretty quick decisions."
Skiles said Harris was behind a bit after missing eight days of camp.
"He's a pretty smart kid," Skiles said. "He'll catch up. Whether he'll catch up in time to be a factor opening night or in the first week of the season, we'll just have to wait and see."
Luc Richard Mbah a Moute also was at practice Monday, going through his first session since signing his contract and getting his work visa issue settled. Mbah a Moute was limited to 5 minutes in the exhibition opener because he had not practiced yet.
Veteran guard Stephen Jackson remained out of practice and Skiles said Jackson was visiting the doctor for a second opinion on his injured back.
The Bucks players went directly from practice to visit patients at the MACC Fund Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders at Children's Hospital.

Masquerade ball wedding gown
With the desire to make from the wedding a remarkable unforgettable event the grooms think first to a theme that breaks the eels. Traditional weddings are lately no more an attraction as it fallows the same well known and commonly met steps. The grooms are looking after something new, something that helps them personalize the wedding and at the same time to be out of the ordinary in a special way.
<-336x280 Large Rectangle - center->
Some of the grooms choose the personal style with influence about what they are doing for living- for example a camouflage wedding for army symbol, for those grooms activating in this domain. Others try to recreate the ancient romantic period- like the balls. And not just a ball wedding type but a masquerade one. Even though your guests probably will not share the enthusiasm, even though it is still a wedding at least the decor and mostly the groom's appearance should be in this consent. And the more interesting is the masquerade ball wedding gown.
First of all, a bride should be a really determined one to recur to this method as this means leaving behind all the traditional vision about the bridal appearances. Apart from this, it must preserve the characteristics of a bridal outfit and at the same time include some of the elements defining for this theme.
The masquerade ball wedding gown can be on the one hand the really big one with vintage influence and bouffant aspect or just a dress inspired from your personal style adding the masquerade ball elements, like the mask. For the first option the dress is like Victorian ones: a vintage look but adapted to the nowadays tendencies. The brides usually rely on the fact that old is gold and will never be obsolete. Still, not may are fans of such a style: the above part has a tight corset, with bust accentuated, as well as the waist, continuing with a large bottom part, with hoop skirt under. The design is an elaborated one, full of details added, with combination of textures, colors and models.
But as well you can replace this with a princess wedding dress. This is typical for such a theme, for such a circumstance. But the accent is on a really decked out appearance. For a better understanding, this type of dress with ball influence is with a corset full of models on it, manually decorated, with embroidery, long train, gloves added for a plus of effect and for fitting in the decor.
A bridal dress inspired from a ball theme and mostly on a masquerade one can be as well the usually vision of a bride in white dress, but it is more than a simple one: the accent on a fancy interesting and decked out appearance with embroidery and models.11

Diminutive striker Benito Carbone will return home to Italy after failing to reach an agreement with Sydney FC to extend his four-match guest contract.
The reigning A-League champion was originally eager to make the 35-year-old's stay more permanent, but a recent hamstring injury and big wage demands made it too difficult to keep him.
Sydney FC chief executive George Perry said the club believed it had put together a package strong enough to keep him in the harbour city, only to fall well short of Carbone's asking price.
"We entered into negotiations with Benito's management to keep him for the season and put to them what we thought was a very attractive offer to keep him at the club until the end of the season as our marquee player, but we are miles apart," Perry said.
"Even before Benito suffered the injury it was apparent we wouldn't be able to come to financial terms, but the extra time he will spend off the pitch has made it difficult to justify the deal."
Carbone suffered a hamstring tear during last Friday's 3-1 loss against Central Coast Mariners after scoring his second goal for the club with a classy free kick in the first half.
The injury will prevent Carbone from playing in Saturday night's blockbuster against Melbourne Victory at Aussie Stadium, the final match for which he was contracted.
Perry said the club had been keen to keep Carbone, but not at the price he was asking.
"It is unfortunate that we can't come to a deal because the coaching staff was happy with his contribution and he would have been an asset to the team, but we won't be financially irresponsible," he said.
"Sydney FC believes in the concept of a marquee player but not at the financial peril of the club."
At the peak of his career with Aston Villa and Middlesbrough, Carbone was rumoured to be earning in excess of STG30,000 pounds($A74,019.22) per week.
While his wage demands were significantly lower this time around, it is believed he requested a weekly wage comparable to Sydney's former marquee player Dwight Yorke, who earned an estimated $800,000 per year.
Carbone - who has now completed stints with 17 clubs - is most likely to find a club willing to meet his price-tag in the Middle East, where he will also be closer to his family.

I'm curious as to the purpose of this method signature in ASP:
protected void ddlChooseReport_Function(Object sender, EventArgs e)
because in the method body afterward, it never mentions either parameter
The method signature has to be compatible with
Just because the particular implementation doesn't happen to use them doesn't mean they're useless. For example, you might use the same event handler to wire up events for many controls, and differentiate between them using the
Event handler delegate types in .NET in general (not specific to ASP.NET) follow a pattern of using
(Routed events in WPF are slightly different, IIRC, but you should read up on those separately.)
A book that I'm reading (C# 5.0 In A Nutshell) addressed this issue. Although there is no change in the method signature, it made use of
By doing this, you are merely raising the event, but disregarding any information about the event, and it avoids unnecessarily instantiating an instance or EventArgs or a subclass thereof.
This doesn't change the fact that you still have to retain the normal signature, but it presumably makes the execution quicker.
This is overall .Net framework guideline on how event method signatures should look like. Some events use arguments (like file watcher), some don't (like in your case).

The Defense Edge
Congress Can't Say No to Military Pay Raises
|Zach Toombs
|June 26th 2012
iWatch News
While civilian salary increases have slowed to a crawl in the last five years, a new Pentagon report shows that military payrolls have proved immune to the economic pain felt in the private sector.
The Defense Department's latest Quadrennial Review of Military Compensation confirms that after years of special benefits provided by Congress, it's now much more lucrative to be a soldier than a civilian. While average pay for civilians with a two-year college degree rises $3,000 between their tenth and twentieth year in the workforce (to reach $45,000), comparable enlisted Defense personnel see their salaries increase $15,000 in that time (to reach $73,000).
In fact, at every point in someone's career, pay in the armed services tops that of civilians. In their first year, military officers make $20,000 more than private sector workers with a bachelor's degree, according to the review by representatives from the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, National Guard and various Defense bureaus. By their twentieth year, that difference has grown to $60,000. And the shortfall is larger for civilians with some college experience or a high school diploma.
A separate report last month by the Center for American Progress, a non-partisan educational institution, concluded that the military's salaries overall have risen 28 percent since 2000, with the average cost per soldier growing from $64,606 to $80,292 in 2012. Defense personnel experts attribute this to Congress' desire to reward troops for their service in recent wars—including a pay bonus begun in 2004—and a swelling of the armed forces' top ranks.
Former Secretary of Defense Robert Gates pushed, to no avail, for major changes to Pentagon compensation and warned of its rising costs before leaving the position last July. In a speech at The American Enterprise Institute, he called the military pay system a "rigid, one-size-fits-all approach … left over from the last century.â€
"A more tiered and targeted system—one that weights compensation towards the most high demand and dangerous specialties—could bring down costs while attracting and retaining the high quality personnel we need,†Gates said.
For many years, Defense pay was pegged to civilian pay, and meant to rise at the same rate. But Congress changed the rules in 2004 by mandating that soldiers' pay increase at the rate of the Employment Cost Index plus 0.5 percent. It was meant to bolster military recruitment efforts for the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Gordon Adams, a former Office of Management and Budget associate director for national security and international affairs under President Bill Clinton, said the Hill's push came at a time when the Pentagon's pay was often worse than the private sector's. But Congress' rationale has been weak for some time, according to critics. Since 2006, the Pentagon has been able to meet its recruitment goals every year, according to the center's report. Adams said a slowing private sector economy, not the special pay, is responsible for the military's recruiting success.
The Pentagon has proposed leveling off pay increases starting in fiscal year 2015 and has estimated that plan would save $16.5 billion by 2020. But it has encountered resistance from Congress, which has continually shown support for pay raises at all levels of the armed forces. Lawmakers have also blocked targeted increases for positions where recruiting has lagged, such as drone operators and information technology specialists.
"The best ideas for reigning in costs are all known—this has been researched to death. It's the politics that kills you,†Adams said. "Congress and [military] retirees want everyone to get their raises across the board—rather than in specific areas where pay lags—and it's good politics, but it's not good force management.â€
Ben Freeman, who specializes in Defense personnel issues at the Project on Government Oversight, notes that there are also more highly-paid officers on the rolls now. Historically, wars have swelled the military's lower ranks, but it now has less than five enlisted personnel for every officer for the first time in 200 years, he said.
And soldiers—especially those who have served 10 or 15 years—have huge financial incentive to stay on the rolls longer and rise through the ranks. Under a policy put in place in 1948, they have to stay in the military for 20 years to access their retirement benefits and pension—a retirements "cliff†that complicates managing personnel costs.

This summer, as a part of our Community Connections activities, St. Paul Youth Services will pilot a new initiative called the Community Response Team.
Members of the team will respond to requests from local libraries, recreation centers, summer youth programs, businesses, and neighbors that are having problems with groups of young people who are disturbing the functioning of regular activities. A team of staff with knowledge best suited to the neighborhood will gather information, spend time at the location observing the situation, and consult with the professionals/adults involved to develop a plan to address both safety issues and the needs of the youth involved.
In addition, the Community Response Team will utilize a preventative approach by having members attend and be a presence at community fairs and events in St. Paul where young people tend to congregate. The purpose is to ensure that young people are engaged in a positive way.
We've assembled some of the most knowledgeable youthworkers in St. Paul to be a part of this team.
If you would like to learn more about the Community Response Team, please call Damon Drake at (651) 771-1301 or email him at email@example.com.

Coal India hikes price of certain grade of coal
Apr 03 2014 , New Delhi
The increase has been with effect from April 1 as per the decision taken by the Coal India board, sources said.
"The CIL board in its 306th meeting held on March 20, 2014 has approved fixation of add-on price in respect of coal produced from Rajmahal mine of Eastern Coalfields Ltd at Rs 390 per tonne in place of existing Rs 300 per tonne.
"This is in order to rationalise the price of coal produced from Rajmahal mine of Eastern Coalfields due to reclassification of Grade of Rajmahal mine of Eastern Coalfields Ltd and price adjustment," according to a CIL Official.
Coal India had in December last year hiked prices of non-coking coal produced by its subsidiary Western Coalfields by 10%.
"...Last time, during rationalisation in the end of February 2011, there was a substantial cut. In the process, it had some impact. So, now we have increased it by 10% on WCL (Western Coalfields)," Coal India CMD S Narsing Rao had said earlier.
On account of increase, Western Coalfields will earn an additional revenue of Rs 139.84 crore for 2013-14, CIL had said in a filing to BSE.
Minister of State for Coal, Pratik Prakashbapu Patil, had said in a written reply to Lok Sabha in December 2013 that Coal India Ltd may get an additional revenue of Rs 2,119 crore in FY'14 on account of revision in dry fuel prices.
CIL had revised the prices of all grades of coal, barring three, for all its eight producing subsidiaries with effect from May 28, 2013.
CIL accounts for over 80% of the domestic coal production.

Jesse James? You've got to be joking.
With occasional check-ups on living works of art who I admire, people such as Keith Richards and Peter O'Toole, I tend to shy away from so-called Celebrity News.
Yet, the Jet-Set Hobo is about to stumble, limp footed, onto the tough and arid terrain of so-called Celebrity Culture. Previous sallies into this territory have included well, attacks, on Madonna, Perez Hilton and English footballers & their wives. The flotsam and jetsam of our nervous era's murky depths.
Aside from logging onto this site to see what I have to say about things, I actually come here looking for news on important topics. Half of the content instead seems to be 'writers'; usually people in ther 30s or 40s, seriously discussing things like the state of Jennifer Aniston's love life. Pretty much all the Jet-Set Hobo could tell you about Jennifer Aniston is that she seems like a grand girl with nice hair but most of the movies and shows she is in seem to be, well, unadulterated tripe.
This is about as much as I could've told you until recently about Sandra Bullock. Oh, now I remember something. I think probably the last film she was in that a GROWN-UP would go and see, was Capote. As in Truman Capote. She was good, 'surprisingly good' I suppose. Aside from that, what I know about Bullock, is that she is a gamine and personable actress who was in some big action films back in the 90s and a bunch of allegedly romantic, allegedly funny 'romantic comedies'.
While her personable qualities have never been in doubt, I've never taken much interest in her private life, and in all honesty I can't imagine anyone with an IQ over 110 wanting to do so.
Now because I'm not a serious journalist, just a lush with a soap box, I might be tainted by idealism here. But it is slightly disappointing to find supposedly 'serious' journalists on True/Slant earnestly discussing the breakup of her marriage, on what I thought was meant to be a fairly 'wonky' op ed news site. (I realise my own blog is a total anomaly in this context, but bear with me, there is room for one exception to the rules, n'est pas?)
But then we come to an aspect of Sandra Bullock's marriage break-up that was previously unknown to me. That Sandra Bullock is being cheated on by a dude, who, at best, looks like a bouncer outside a 'high class' lap dancing club. And at worst, like the assistant manager at a Harley Davidson dealership. Previous history? High profile relationships with porn stars. Really? Well, he sounds just immediately like suitable marriage material doesn't he? Walking piece of panel van art admiring, mullet haircut & facial sporting paragon of bad taste that he would appear to be. The Jet-Set Hobo was really rather shocked, in as much as anyone as worldly as he could be.
I mean to say, is that the best the poor lass could do? Someone around here would have gladly stepped into the breech if the pick of chaps in Beverly Hills is really that dire these days. Anyway, that was just about as much energy as I can be arsed (bothered) expending on any given week on the detritus of celebrity news.
Clearly however, several of my fellow True/Slanters feel rather differently. Sitting at the top of the site not long ago was for example the headline, 'Is Liam Neeson the new Mel Gibson'? I mean honestly. Really. 'Is Liam Neeson the new Mel Gibson'?' What kind of question is that? I suppose they both look good in a kilt. Liam Neeson's Scots accent is a bit more convincing than Gibson's, but that wouldn't be difficult. What I'd like to know, is what sane, enlightened person sits around asking themselves questions like that in a serious tone of voice.
There seems to be plenty more where that came from. The other day I came across a story here which was a song-by-song critique of all the contestants on American Idol's sad attempts to emulate Rock's greatest carny act, the Rolling Stones. This, excuse me, not by a 9 year old, but a middle-aged man. It's not so much how much spare time do you have, but what the hell are you doing with your spare time, if this is all you have to talk about. Either get outdoors, read a book or even go to a goddamn bar, but get your head out of the celebrity culture intellectual wasteland and, in the parlance of our times, GET A LIFE.
Anyway, I don't know about you, but I'm going for a walk. I may be some time.

Five months ago, Sarah Godfrey was shot in the leg by a 15-year-old boy who, on a whim, decided to rob a group of people at a house party.
The would-be robbery was foiled when Godfrey and another man chased the boy out of the house and the boy fired shots.
At the time, Godfrey said she wanted Samuel Dunn to be tried as an adult and face a maximum penalty. Now, she's expressed a change of heart.
"He deserves help," Godfrey told Judge Robert Lewis Thursday. "A lot of it."
The judge agreed, sentencing Dunn to spend between about five years and six years, eight months in a juvenile institution. When the dust settles, Dunn will either be released just after his 20th birthday or when he turns 21, depending on how amenable he is to treatment.
Juvenile court does not have jurisdiction over offenders after they turn 21.
Lewis said a juvenile institution is best suited to help Dunn with his Asperger's syndrome. Still, while the judge acknowledged Dunn's condition, he said it shouldn't serve as an excuse.
"For these people, it doesn't really matter what the reason is" for firing shots, Lewis said, addressing Dunn. "What you did was extremely terrorizing to the people involved and the community."
Decision made
Lewis did not decide whether Dunn should be tried as an adult because Judge Edwin Poyfair had already decided this spring that Dunn should be tried as a juvenile.
Dunn pleaded guilty June 29 in juvenile court to first-degree burglary, first-degree attempted robbery, first-degree assault, second-degree assault and unlawful possession of a firearm. He also pleaded guilty to two unrelated counts of residential burglary.
Deputy Prosecutor Jessica Smith and defense attorney Michael Borge both recommended that Dunn be incarcerated until at least age 20. The judge agreed with the recommendation.
Victims speak
Before sentencing, several people at the party on the night of Feb. 19 addressed the judge about the impact the shooting has had on them and their families. Dunn had been walking by the house on Northeast 38th Street, saw that a party was going on, donned a mask, and entered with a gun and a bag, according to court documents.
Dunn threw the bag on the kitchen floor and told the group to put their wallets in the bag, according to court documents. Then, when he thought they hadn't heard them, Dunn fired one shot into the wall near the ceiling.
"He came in ready to fire," Jason Wallace, who was at the party that night, told the judge. "He came ready to kill."
When Dunn was chased from the house, he fired shots at Godfrey and Corey Bloom, both 22. They were treated at a local hospital.
Michelle Scheneman, who lives at the house where the shooting occurred, said she still lives with the terror of that night and questions whether Dunn really understands the gravity of his actions.
"The lack of remorse on his part makes me ill," she said.
The family of Dunn also spoke to the judge, offering a much different picture. Dunn's grandmother, June Dunn, said that as a child, Samuel Dunn never got in trouble. The family only learned of his Asperger's syndrome upon his arrest and how it affects his perception of his actions on others. Those with Asperger's generally can't understand others' trauma, she said.
"I love this kid. I think he's a wonderful kid," she said. "It was an enormous shock to us when it happened."

Carris arrested for DUI after head-on crashBy Brent Curtis
Staff Writer | May 27,2014WEST RUTLAND - A former Rutland state senator and at one time president of Carris Reels was arrested for driving under the influence this morning after Vermont State Police say he caused a head-on-collision with another vehicle on Route 133.
Carris, 69, was unhurt in the 8:30 a.m. crash, but police say the driver of the other vehicle, Robert MacMurray, 71, of West Rutland , was taken by ambulance to Rutland Regional Medical Center for treatment of minor injuries.
Police say Carris was driving a 2013 Ford F-150 truck south at about 30 mph when he crossed the center line and collided with a 2008 GMC Sierra driven by MacMurray, who police say was also driving 30 mph.
Carris, who stepped down from his Senate seat in 2012 due to health reasons, is also listed as the chairman of the board of directors at Carris Reels , which transitioned to an employee-owned company in 2005.

The 0x5000 variable is located in a location that is unknown, so I can't say what it will break, if it breaks anything at all.
On a more positive sidenote, I managed to make the game save a location of my choice to the 1f bank, and it affected nothing adversly, so it should be possible to recreate the variables there, with some work.

'In Brandon's place, the Sabres are sending amateur scouting director Greg Royce and former spokesman and newly promoted HarborCenter general manager Michael Gilbert to the draft lottery.'
The Sabres Report - April 30, 2016
President of Bills, Sabres passing on NHL draft to focus on football ★
Sabres re-sign F Larsson ★
'The Lau, Sweden, native has recorded 37 points (16 goals, 21 assists) and 58 penalty minutes in 142 games with the Sabres since being acquired from the Minnesota Wild on April 3, 2013.'
Sabres ink Larsson ★
'Larsson was a second round pick of Minnesota in 2010 and was traded to Buffalo as part of the Jason Pominville deal. He's played 141 games with Buffalo.'
Sabres back to the Draft Lottery ★
'Buffalo has had the best odds the past two seasons, but lost out to Florida and then Edmonton. This season the Sabres have just a six percent chance.'
Sabres extend Forward Larsson ★
'Larsson (5'11", 200 lbs., 7/25/1992) set career-high marks in games played (74), goals (10) and points (17) in his first full NHL season in 2015-16. Five of his 10 goals were game-winners, tying Jack Eichel for the Sabres' team lead. Larsson also ranked second among the team's regular faceoff men with a career-best faceoff percentage of 51.1 percent.'
Saturday's Rochester Coverage ★
A look back at the 2015-16 season (Amerks.com)
The Sabres Report - April 29, 2016
Ducks' loss gives Sabres 12 picks in June's NHL Draft ★
'The added pick gives Buffalo a dozen to use June 24-25 in First Niagara Center. The Sabres have one pick in the first, second, fourth and sixth rounds. They have four in the third round after previously acquiring selections in the trades that sent Ryan Miller to St. Louis and Jhonas Enroth to Dallas. Buffalo has two picks in the fifth and seventh rounds after trades with Montreal that sent Brian Flynn and Torrey Mitchell to the Canadiens.'
Sabres promote Gilbert to front office job; Ch.7 reporter exiting ★
'Mike Gilbert, the member of the Buffalo Sabres organization who has been dealing with the local and the national media covering the National Hockey League team for 19 years, recently received a significant promotion.'
There's something about Larry ★
'I am certainly not a scout, but I do watch (and have watched) an inordinate amount of hockey over the last four decades. And for whatever reason – maybe it's their comparable size, birthplace, or unheralded arrival into the NHL – I keep thinking Larsson has a chance to become something like Samuel Pahlsson was for the Anaheim Ducks a decade ago.'
Friday's Rochester Coverage ★
The Sabres Report - April 28, 2016
How the draft lottery could change Buffalo's offseason plans ★
'If the Sabres win any of the top three spots in Saturday night's NHL draft lottery, that problem will be solved in the long term, but they will still need an offseason addition in the trade market or free agency to compete for the playoffs next season.'
Fasching and Bailey highlights among Buffalo Sabres year-end prospect awards ★
'Fasching could be a candidate to begin 2016-17 on the main roster or he could wind up getting a little seasoning in Rochester. Either way, his future in Buffalo is extremely bright and the fan base is waiting excitedly for Faschingmania to take hold in Buffalo permanently.'
The Sabres Report - April 27, 2016
Sabres' Carlo Colaiacovo hopes to return ★
'"To be honest with you, I want to be around to see the fruits of this growth," Colaiacovo said. "It's always something special for me to see the Buffalo fans deserving of a championship.'
Buffalo Sabres year in review: part three — what to expect this offseason ★
'Murray's most important move will be getting Rasmus Ristolainen, Buffalo's top defender and another impending RFA, a new deal. Based on the going rate for defensemen of Ristolainen's age and caliber, don't be surprised if his next deal is in the $4.5 to $5 million per-year range.

'"It's been fascinating to watch him play throughout the year, to see how good he is, what his speed can do, what he can do to the other teams " Bylsma said after Buffalo's final game of the season. "When you look at the last half a season, you see a guy who has had the puck on his stick as much as or more than anybody in the League and shows that he can be a dominant player in doing that. I think that's where he's grown."'

1 July 2011 - The increasing importance of long-term forecasting for insurance and reinsurance firms is outlined in a joint Lloyd's and Met Office report published online this week.
Written by Matt Huddleston, Principal Consultant at the Met Office, the report examines the issues that the changing climate poses for managing exposure to weather-related risk.
In 2010, about $27 billion of insured loss was recorded by firms around the world due to floods, storms, drought, and other extreme weather.*
Traditionally insurance and reinsurance companies have managed their exposure to this type of risk by basing decisions on records of past events.
However, there is growing evidence that suggests changes in our climate are increasing the frequency of extreme weather events - and this may mean that past data is less reliable as the only guide to the future.
Dr Huddleston said: "Recent advances in research and improved technology suggest some phenomena can be forecast months or even further in advance, such as tropical storms in the Atlantic - an area of forecasting where the Met Office has seen improving levels of accuracy over the past few years."
While it is impossible to forecast with certainty at seasonal timescales, the range of outcomes from forecasts are becoming more accurate and are therefore becoming more relevant for decision making in the insurance industry.
Dr Huddleston continued: "Insurance is one of the main tools that businesses and communities have to protect themselves from catastrophic events and build resilience. This report shows that the insurance industry may increasingly benefit from the use of long-range predictions - especially in a changing climate where the past may not represent the future".
Trevor Maynard, Head of Exposure Management at Lloyd's, said: "Long-range forecasting methods and techniques should help risk experts and modellers refine their modelling practices and will play a growing role in the insurance market, particularly as the impacts of climate change are increasingly felt."
The full report is called 'Forecasting risk: the value of long-range forecasting for the insurance industry' and can be read online on the Lloyd's website.
