|Best resource I could ever ask for! (5/5)
|May 17, 2010
|Heather Chambers
|Fort Bragg NC US
|I have two children with IEP's in DoD schools, every year for the last 6 years I have had to beg for any kind of academic services at all, when I walked in today, I could see that the learning impaired teacher wasn't going to let it be any different without a fight. When I was able to explain exactly what I was asking for and which section of IDEA 2004 it was under, the principal immediately started supporting me in my efforts and for the first time ever, at least one of my children is getting a FAPE from these schools. Thank you so much!

|Denise M. Turchiano
|After nine years of trying to find out the correct diagnosis for our child I figured it would take nine plus nine to figure out where to go next in the school systems and I felt that I needed to know everything that I could. This book is worth triple the price in information. PLEASE buy this book if you are new to the "system" or even if you have been in the system for some time. The plain language and the resources and references alone make this a must read. Thank you to the authors of this fine book.

|"Understanding special education law can be difficult. First, there is the new IDEA 2004, followed last summer by the approved regulations for this law. Yet, Peter and Pamela Wright, authors of the second edition have managed to create a clear and concise book explaining the IDEA and Regulations."

OK dude you came across not too wise on the O Riley, If your child was allergic to peanuts and had a peanut you not only take away the peanut but the bowl from which he retrieved it. Ben Laden's source in Afghanistan had to be dealt with. It has been a hot bed of terrorist organizations. We are isolating them so they are easier to deal with. Why do you think we keep catching these guys before they hit us. I am not trying to be rude, but being a rapper does not exactly make you an expert is the security affairs of the United States intelligent sector! Save yourself and your self respect at least humble yourself to the fact that you are not informed in the political matters of our National Security. If that is an interest then find a top notch college and start educating yourself!

Program Overview
Heating Technology
Learn the basic theory and practices of Heating, and get hands-on experience in a laboratory setting. Master heating concepts as they apply to residential, commercial, and industrial structures. The program covers gray water technologies, rainwater harvesting, biofuel and solar technologies, and other industry innovations.
Plumbing Technology
Learn the basic theory and practices of Plumbing and heating, and get hands-on experience in a laboratory setting. Master plumbing concepts as they apply to residential, commercial, and industrial structures, and heating solutions for residential buildings. The program covers gray water technologies, rainwater harvesting, biofuel and solar technologies, and other industry innovations.
Associate in Science Degree
The Associate in Science Degree in Plumbing and Heating is a program offered jointly through our Plumbing and Heating Departments.
Plumbing & Heating is a comprehensive program designed to train the student as an entry-to-industry level technician. The student is taught the basic theory and practices of plumbing and heating and receives hands-on experience in a laboratory setting. The program offers a curriculum combining two distinct but interconnected areas: heating, with residential structures and plumbing: residential, commercial, and industrial structures.
The four quarter plumbing portion of the program includes the study of basic tools; methods of fabrication; fitting identification and usage; drainage; waste and venting; water piping methods and design; sewage disposal and treatment; water sources and distribution; and household and industrial maintenance.
Plumbing has incorporated the use of Gray Water Technology and Rain Water Harvesting. These technologies will be taught in the third and fourth quarters of the program. The student will attain a better understanding of the concepts which will allow them to work on these projects as plumbers.
In the heating portion of the program, various heating systems are examined such as steam, warm air, forced hot water and gas-fired equipment. Also presented are the burners used in conjunction with these systems and their associated control circuitry. Special consideration is given to electricity and wiring, and heat loss calculations and system design as they relate to a residential application.
Heating has incorporated the use of Biofuel and solar technologies. The fuel oil that is used in our heating units has been entirely replaced with Biofuel. Additionally, the two oil fired buildings on campus have now been converted to Biofuel. Solar technology is now part of heating's second quarter curriculum. The solar panels, tank and controls have been ordered, and we intend on having a working model ready for the fall quarter, 2009.
Historically, the northeast area of the country has been a stronghold for oil heat; however, gas has gained in popularity recently. Gas Technology was developed to meet the local market demand for heating technicians who are well-trained in both oil and gas equipment.
Gas Technology examines the field of gas-fired equipment. The theory and lab experience includes the design, installation, troubleshooting, and servicing of units such as gas-fired furnaces, boilers, water heaters and rooftop systems.
The graduate is prepared for entry-level technician positions in the plumbing and heating industry. In addition, after completing certain prerequisites*, graduates of this program area are eligible to continue on for a Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Management Technology.
Dirty Jobs, Mike Rowe, talks to Congress about the skilled labor shortage.
Program Mission, Goals and Outcomes for Heating
Program Mission:
The mission of the Heating Technology Program is to provide an integral component to the Associate Degreed programs in Refrigeration, Air-Conditioning, Heating Technology and Plumbing Heating Technology. The Heating Technology program is focused on providing basic essential training to students in preparation for their entry into the fields of oil and gas heating and pipefitting. This training is designed for those students who have recently graduated from high school as well as adults who are seeking a different career path to follow. Through a combination of classroom theory and hands-on laboratory training, students are given the opportunity to acquire the skills required for entry-level employment in the heating industry.
Program Goals – Heating Technology:
The Heating Technology Program will provide the appropriate training for students to:
a. Develop theoretical knowledge of systems, their components and function.
b. Gain an understanding of tools and equipment used in the heating field and how to put them to proper use.
c. Use the knowledge acquired in the classroom and display proficiency in the lab while working on equipment readily found in real-life installations.
d. Qualify for the Rhode Island Oil Burner Journeyperson Technician's license.
e. Enter the workforce with the ability to interact appropriately with customers, vendors and fellow tradespersons.
Program Outcomes – Heating Technology:
Graduates of this program will be able to:
1. Perform basic diagnosis of a fuel unit through the use of vacuum and pressure gauges.
2. Exhibit knowledge of combustion efficiency testing through the use of instruments.
3. Demonstrate a procedure for testing electrical circuits by using a Volt-OHM-Milliamp Meter.
4. Calculate heat loss for a single family dwelling and properly design a multi-zone series loop system for that structure.
5. Design a fuel delivery system with natural gas and propane for a residential and light commercial application and develop a complete parts list for the installation of that system in accordance with NFPA 54.

ZF-12369: Limiting rows not working properly in Zend_Db_Select
Limiting result set in Zend_Db_Select is not working when I pass zero as parameter to "limit" method.
For example $imagesTable->select()->limit(5) will return 5 rows, but $imagesTable->select()->limit(0) will return all rows, because the "LIMIT 0" is not included in the query.
i don't this this major bug. it will be like there is no parameter. and there is an internal check for limit greater than zero.

May 11, 2007
TEMPE, Ariz. - Round one in the battle for Pac-10 supremacy went to the Sun Devils in a back-and-forth game, as Arizona State came from behind to pick up the 16-14 win. ASU scored nine runs over the final three innings to improve to 35-12, 12-4 in the Pac-10.
The Sun Devils jumped out to a 7-1 lead after three, thanks in part to a massive three-run homer by Kiel Roling. The lead would not last long however, as UCLA scored 13 runs over the next three innings off starter Mike Leake and Joey Parigi to make it 14-7.
There was no quit in the Devils, as they began to chip away at the lead in the sixth. A Roling RBI single scored Wallace, setting the stage for the comeback. With two outs and the bases loaded in the seventh, Eric Sogard sent a sharp grounder to the Bruin second baseman. The ball squirted between his legs, allowing Tim Smith and Matt Spencer to score. Brett Wallace made UCLA pay for the error, tattooing a ball into right center for his 14th home run of the season. That made it 14-13 heading to the eighth. After Dustin Brader retired the Bruins, Petey Paramore drew a one-out walk and was replaced at first by Jarred Bogany, representing the tying run. With two gone, Tim Smith drew a walk to put runners at first and second for Andrew Romine. After quickly falling into an 0-2 hole, Romine battled back to shoot a ball down the left field line. Both runners scored, and Romine was at third with a two-run triple. Joe Persichina singled Romine home, giving the Sun Devils a 16-14 lead heading to the ninth.
Matt Spencer started the ninth on the mound, walking a batter and recording a strikeout before giving way to Jason Jarvis. Jarvis retired both men he faced to secure his sixth save.
Dustin Brader picked up the win, upping his record to 2-0. He went 2.2 innings, allowing a run on two hits with two strike outs. Leake started and went 5.1, allowing 10 runs, seven earned, on 15 hits. UCLA starter Tyson Brummett went 6.2 innings, allowing 12 runs, eight earned, on 14 hits.
Brett Wallace was 3-5 with three RBI and two runs scored, while Matt Spencer went 4-5 with three RBI. Kiel Roling, Petey Paramore and Andrew Romine each had two hits in the win.
The Devils and Bruins will do it again tomorrow evening, with first pitch scheduled for 6 p.m. at Winkles Field-Packard Stadium at Brock Ballpark. FSN Arizona will televise the game live.

Long established as the classic and seminal introduction to art of the Western world, the Seventh Edition ofJanson's History of Artis groundbreaking. When Harry Abrams first published theHistory of Artin 1962, John F. Kennedy occupied the White House, and Andy Warhol was an emerging artist. Janson offered his readers a strong focus on Western art, an important consideration of technique and style, and a clear point of view.The History of Art, said Janson, was not just a stringing together of historically significant objects, but the writing of a story about their interconnections, a history of styles and of stylistic change. Jansonrs"s text focused on the visual and technical characteristics of the objects he discussed, often in extraordinarily eloquent language. Jansonrs"sHistory of Arthelped to establish the canon of art history for many generations of scholars. The new Seventh Edition introduces the authorship of six distinguished specialists narrating the history of art for todayrs"s students. The contribution of multiple authors allows an expert's understanding to permeate each and every part of the text with a currency in art historical thinking and an enhanced discussion of context.

Faith based organisations, by Franciscans International
- Date submitted: 31 Oct 2011
- Stakeholder type: Major Group
- Name: Faith based organisations, by Franciscans International
- Submission Document: Download
Full SubmissionThis joint statement is the contribution of a coalition of faith based organisations1. The Rio+20 Conference will take place at a crucial moment when our global community is facing a multidimensional crisis. We reaffirm the importance of Principle 1 of the Declaration of Rio which states ?Human beings are at the centre of concerns for sustainable development. They are entitled to a healthy and productive life in Harmony with nature?. We also recognize that all human beings are part of an ecosystem comprising all living beings on earth, therefore both humans and nature must be at the center of our attention, when we work for human development in a sustainable way. All living beings are entitled to a healthy and productive life in harmony with each other. We stand for a holistic and ethical approach. The human person is a created being, as are nature and all its creatures. Not only are men and women good, but so too are all created beings and ecosystems. The Earth and cosmos don?t belong to humanity but to God. Men and women need to be responsible for caring for creation. Abuses committed because of arrogance and greed lead to injustice which results in suffering for all creation. In the context of a liberal market ideology, everybody works for his/her own interest primarily. Some will profit and many others will not. As long as free markets and maximization of profit are the only agreeable basis for a market economy, greed and non-solidarity are necessary prerequisites for its functioning. (1. faith based organizations: Franciscans International, Congregation of Our Lady of Charity of the Good Shepherd, Dominicans for Justice and Peace (Order of preachers), Edmund Rice International, Daughters of Charity, Vivat International) We draw two criteria from this perspective: justice and the common good. Recognition and respect for the legitimate rights of individuals and peoples are at stake. The common good is ?the good of all of us, made up of individuals, families and intermediate groups who together constitute society. It is a good that is sought not for its own sake, but for the people who belong to the social community and who can only really and effectively pursue their good within it. To desire the common good and strive towards it is a requirement of justice2. We highlight the need to link environmental issues with the common good. In order to take into consideration individuals as well as peoples, it is necessary to use a human rights based approach. OUR CONCERNS The mainstream economic system is a market-based approach. Any single good is commodified. In the same logic, the human being is trafficked. Economic wealth is not the only value. You cannot trade the value of a forest or a human body. The ?business as usual? system is predominant and contravenes strongly the Rio Declaration statement: ?All states and all people shall cooperate in the essential task of eradication of poverty as an indispensable requirement for sustainable development, in order to decrease the disparities in standards of living and better meet the needs of the majority of the people of the world.?3 Our statement addresses the theme: ?Green Economy and the eradication of poverty?. UNEP currently states: ?For the purposes of the green Economy Initiative, UNEP has developed a working definition of a green economy as one that results in improved human well-being and social equity, while significantly reducing environmental risks and ecological scarcities?. The Green Economy, while positive in principle, raises some concerns. Economic growth is not the problem. The economy needs to generate benefits. The concern is about equity and shared benefits. ?The world's wealth is growing in absolute terms, but inequalities are on the increase. In rich countries, new sectors of society are succumbing to poverty and new forms of poverty are emerging. In poorer areas some groups enjoy a sort of ?super development? of a wasteful and consumerist kind which forms an unacceptable contrast with the ongoing situations of dehumanizing deprivation. The scandal of glaring inequalities continues?5. The Green Economy should be regarded as a mechanism which addresses social issues for eradicating poverty and environmental protection, rather than as a particular type of economic system. Climate change increases this growing chasm of inequality. It also calls all peoples to a new degree of partnership, where traditional knowledge is valued and where scientific knowledge is shared. This will require the implementation of the Principle of Common but Differentiated Responsibilities (Principle 7 Rio Declaration).This will enable less developed countries to make a technological leap, bypassing environmentally harmful stages of the development process, and moving directly to green technology. We are living in a world with limited material resources. The production of ever more goods and services is only possible at the risk of the collapse of the earth?s ecosystems as such. Green Economy must address the question of production and consumption patterns. As environmental issues are global in scope, States need a system of global governance to develop and adopt a common policy on Sustainable Development, so as to ensure an effective implementation by public and private actors. As the world has been experiencing a series of global crises, for instance the food crisis, banking crisis and is beginning to feel the effects of the climate crisis, it is crucial that we seek to protect the most vulnerable from shocks that affect their livelihoods and their rights to development and wellbeing. The provision of a social protection floor ensuring access to cash transfers and social services is an essential element of a comprehensive sustainable livelihood approach to development in the 21st century. Access to information, public participation in decision-making and access to justice on environmental matters (Principle 10 of Rio Declaration) is a prerequisite to empower peoples, to respect self-determination, and to promote a rights-based approach. Women should be part of the process equally with men. In many countries, they are the custodians of the family, of the environment, and of traditions (Principle 20 of Rio declaration). The United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples advocates ?free, prior and informed consent? (Article 19) to recognize indigenous peoples? inherent and prior rights to their lands and resources and to respect their legitimate authority to require that third parties enter into an equal and respectful relationship with them, based on the principle of informed consent. OUR RECOMMENDATIONS 1) We call for an ambitious strategy and fundamental reforms which will fill the gap of lack of accountability of governments in implementing agreements and meeting their international responsibilities to address Human Rights obligations. 2) We call for all States to put in place a social protection floor for people living in poverty. 3) We call for the equal participation of women in all decision-making processes. 4) We call for all States to implement the Principle of Common but Differentiated Responsibilities. 5) We call for a renewed framework which will take into account the free prior and informed consent of Indigenous Peoples in all policies that affect them, at local, regional and national level. 6) We call for all States to recognize the inherent value of every human being and of the natural environment. 7) We call for all States to ensure that the shared benefits of the economy assure the common good and are not merely for personal profit.

What if there were a blunt but effective way to fix America's glass ceiling problem? Because despite the high profiles of such women as Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, we do have one: Only 3.8 percent of CEOs of Fortune 500 companies are women. If you look at the boards of those same companies, the number of women improves, though not by much. In 2011 they occupied 16.1 percent of board seats, according to a study by Catalyst. In politics the picture is equally disturbing. At the national level, only 17 percent of legislators are women; at the state level, the figure is 24 percent—and that percentage has flatlined. America ranks 80th in the world in terms of the percentage of women in our national legislature, according to the Inter-Parliamentary Union. Compare that with Vietnam (48th), Belarus (39th), Argentina (18th), Cuba (third) and Rwanda (first). The U.S. is tied with Morocco and Venezuela."It's an embarrassment," says Debbie Walsh, director of the Center for American Women and Politics at Rutgers. "We're the country that's the model of democracy in the world."
Women are underrepresented around the globe. But a large number of other countries have begun to attack the disparity head on. The hammer they are using is quotas, and the results have been rapid and recognized. Quotas have become so common outside the U.S. that they now amount to no less than a giant, provocative worldwide experiment. And as the data from that experiment trickle in, there is a valuable lesson for us: Push legislatures and companies to put women in top positions, and remarkable things can happen.
When Women Get Elected
More than 100 countries—or more than half the world's nations—now have some kind of quota designed to increase the number of women legislators. This has led to a dramatic boost in the number of women leaders around the world, and the ripple effects are clear: Political quotas result in substantively different policies; they create positive female role models, changing attitudes toward women; and they bring more women into politics.
Judith Schwentner was elected to the Austrian parliament in 2008, when she was 40. Austrian political parties have voluntarily adopted quotas—Schwentner's party, the Greens, aims to choose women as 50 percent of its candidates—and as a result the proportion of women legislators is 27 percent. "There is always the cliché that women who have been given a job to fulfill a quota are less qualified," Schwentner says. "But this is nonsense." She sees women working just as effectively as men to pass laws—and quickly gaining experience.
When Esther Duflo, a professor of economics at MIT, began studying political quotas, she was not convinced that they were a good idea—or even that they mattered. Does having a woman in office make a difference? Do women govern differently than men? She found a way to explore that question in India, where quotas require that a third of the elected village chiefs be female. Before each election, "they count one, two, three, one, two, three," as she puts it, and in every third village only women candidates can run. The data she gathered—the record of what the women did once elected—showed that villages with women chiefs made distinctive investment choices: "pro-woman, pro the weaker segment of society," says Duflo. For instance, women, whose tasks traditionally include getting water, were much more likely than men to put money into wells. In contrast, "in Rajasthan," says Duflo, "male elected officials put money into roads."
Duflo's big question, though, was whether women leaders would have a lasting effect—whether the status quo would reappear once the spinning quota wheel had moved on to another village. So she and her colleagues went into villages and played each person a recording of a speech, sometimes given by a man, sometimes by a woman. The listeners then rated the speech. In villages that had never had a woman chief, the man was generally rated much higher—even though the wording was identical. In villages that had had the experience of a woman leader, that effect disappeared. And in the next election cycle, Duflo found that if a village had been governed by a woman once, it was more likely to elect a woman again, even without a quota. "Having a woman leader affected the view of women's competency almost instantly," Duflo says.
Elsewhere in the world, the results have also been striking. In 1994 some 800,000 people in Rwanda, the majority of them men, were killed in a genocidal war. By 1996, fully 70 percent of the country's population was female, and women headed half the households. A new constitution in 2003 set aside 30 percent of the seats in parliament for women. Those would be filled on a separate ballot, in which women competed against women. As it turned out, women won several of the openly contested seats, too, bringing the total representation of women in parliament to 48 percent. In the next election, in 2008, that number rose to 56 percent—the highest in the recorded history of parliaments anywhere. If there is a lesson here, it may be that quotas can be regarded as a floor, not a ceiling. Women's ambitions needn't be limited to being handed a respectable share.
How Women Affect the Business World
Nine years ago, Norway's legislature made an abrupt decision: The boards of publicly registered companies would henceforth be 40 percent female. At the time, the average was about 9 percent; the law gave businesses five years, until 2008, to make it happen. If they failed, the companies would incur sanctions and in some cases be legally required to dissolve. Some had to scramble at the last minute, and some went private—an option that allowed them to avoid the quota—but on the whole they made it. Beforehand, there had been dire warnings about the consequences of the law, says Alison Konrad, a professor at the University of Western Ontario. And some of the complaints were more than ugly: Anders Breivik, who in a bombing and shooting spree in 2011 killed 77 people, most of them kids at a summer camp in Norway, ranted about the board quota in his manifesto. But Breivik is on the extreme fringe. "Magically, all these companies survived, are doing fine and have stopped talking about it," Konrad says.
Anne Kathrine Slungard was part of the first group of women to be brought into the boardroom after Norway passed the quota law, and today she serves on the boards of five firms, including Siemens, a global energy and technology company. Slungard had been mayor of Trondheim, the country's third-largest city, so she already had a national profile. She says she never felt she had to struggle to be respected as a board member, though she jokes that "maybe I lacked the antennae." She says, "I've heard other women say that they had to fight their way into the boardroom, and some did feel they were not trusted. But others were welcomed with open arms. The main difference, in my opinion, is between the different chairmen. If the chairmen were pro quota or if they were against the quota, that was a big difference when it came to how to welcome new board members."
Slungard says she thinks other countries should institute corporate quotas, and she's quick to point out she didn't always feel that way. "I say that with a smile on my face because I'm a conservative politician and conservatives are not pro quotas," she says. "This is one of the big issues in my political career in which I have changed my mind. Fifteen years ago, I was against any quota. But now I believe you have to do something powerful to make the evolution run a bit faster."
In fact, a slew of other countries have followed in Norway's footsteps. Spain, France, Iceland, the Netherlands, Italy and Australia all have legislated boardroom quotas (none has yet reached its target date for compliance). The European Union as a whole is also considering a quota of 40 percent women in the boardroom, which would have to be ratified by its members. "I don't like quotas, but I like what they do," Viviane Reding, the EU's senior justice official, told the New York Times, nicely summing up many people's attitudes.
Because in specific ways, quotas work: Once there are women on a company's board, the number of women holding other top executive positions increases. A growing body of research in the United States also indicates that having women board members correlates with better returns on the bottom line. (In Norway, results have been mixed.) When Catalyst looked at Fortune 500 companies, those with the most women in leadership positions outperformed those with the fewest by 26 percent. "The business case is so clear and compelling," says Deborah Gillis, senior vice president of global operations at Catalyst. "Organizations should want to take action. The question isn't why more women should be on boards but why not?"
Quotas in the U.S.
While this country rarely has quotas, it does have "goals": programs that encourage diversity, as measured by specific numeric signposts. For example, the federal government has a goal, mandated by Congress, of awarding 5 percent of federal contracts to small businesses owned by women. But even with that goal, the percentage of contracts awarded has been 3.98. There is no guarantee that women will get the designated contracts; they'll just have a first chance to compete for them. "This is a tool, not a quota," says Michele Chang, deputy chief of staff at the Small Business Administration.
The U.S. does have a shining example of a quota-like goal that proved truly transformative: Title IX. Passed by Congress in 1972, it in part requires educational institutions receiving federal funds to create equal opportunities for both genders in education, including in school-sponsored sports. The number of female student athletes has since quintupled, along with the attendant benefits of health, teamwork and—not least—scholarships. If everyone agrees a goal is a good idea and it is well implemented, a goal can work.
But goals in this country were once used to keep people out—and today they are tangled up in the controversial issue of affirmative action, a catchall term for any intervention that attempts to address imbalances. Debates over affirmative action—which of course affects race as well as gender—have frequently ended up in court. Summarized very roughly, the Supreme Court ruled that strict quotas aren't OK but goals are, and so is an effort to meet a goal—which may end up giving a certain candidate an edge. But this may change, and soon: The Supreme Court heard a case in October 2012 brought by a Caucasian student named Abigail Fisher, who didn't get into the University of Texas in 2008. The decision will be handed down after this issue of More has gone to press, but given the conservative majority on the court, there is a chance that the justices will end affirmative action as we know it.
Which is not to say we can't still benefit from other countries' experiences. Around the world, quotas force corporations and political parties to take a hard look at women and figure out who are the most talented. When the powers that be are required to seek women, they have discovered—sometimes to their surprise—that they can find them. Those who don't like quotas need to address the question of how we can match quotas' accomplishments without writing them into law. Because when we do find a way to get women into power, we may learn for ourselves what is possibly the most hopeful lesson from the world's great quota experiment: the speed at which attitudes and assumptions—as well as outcomes—can change.

ZF-12012: Make the TMX parser output the filename when throwing an exception
When parsing of an TMX file fails, an exception is thrown that reports the error and the line of the TMX file that was processed, but not the name of the TMX file. Instead, the (pretty useless) name of the TMX parser given.
This patch adds the filename to the error message, so one does know from the error message which TMX file could not be parsed (and then take a look at the TMX file).
Error-message before patch:
[exec] Zend_Translate_Exception: XML error: Not well-formed (invalid token) at line 1 in library/Zend/Translate/Adapter/Tmx.php on line 82
after patch:
[exec] Zend_Translate_Exception: XML error: Not well-formed (invalid token) at line 1 of file application/tmx/svn-commit.tmp in library/Zend/Translate/Adapter/Tmx.php on line 83
Please review the attached patch.
Huh, now how to add a patch here. I'll just post it as comment.
Index: library/Zend/Translate/Adapter/Tmx.php
--- library/Zend/Translate/Adapter/Tmx.php (revision 3015) +++ library/Zend/Translate/Adapter/Tmx.php (working copy) @@ -74,9 +74,10 @@ xml_set_character_data_handler($this->_file, "_contentElement");
if (!xml_parse($this->_file, file_get_contents($filename))) {
- $ex = sprintf('XML error: %s at line %d', + $ex = sprintf('XML error: %s at line %d of file %s', xml_error_string(xml_get_error_code($this->_file)), - xml_get_current_line_number($this->_file)); + xml_get_current_line_number($this->_file), + $filename); xml_parser_free($this->_file); require_once 'Zend/Translate/Exception.php'; throw new Zend_Translate_Exception($ex);
Now that worked really well. According to the Internets, I should have some "upload file" capability here. Probably it's disabled because you don't want to host random stuff?
Whatever, here's a link to the patch: https://gist.github.com/1641340

MPG's Ambre Precieux. I don't want to post any sexual images but it has a middle eastern vibe to it that feels red and gold. Very much reminds me of Morocco, from it's architecture, market and also Moroccan bathrooms, with lots of lovely ladies giving you...errr....
Couldn't find better pictures, the first one is accurate of the message at least.
Dear Ekovo, the upper pix are Ottoman influences found in Syria (Damascus and Aleppo). Moroccan Motifs are more colorful and the Arabesque is far more intricate. I'll attach some pics later in the day.

On Saturday, March 10, 2012 members of the Williamsburg Bird Club will be on hand at Wild Birds Unlimited in the Monticello Marketplace Shopping Center from 1:00 p.m. on to answer birding and bird related questions. We will be recruiting participants for the April 29, 2012 Williamsburg Spring Bird Count and promoting other citizen science activities including eBird, the December 16, 2012 Williamsburg Christmas Bird, and the February 2013 Great Back Yard Bird Count, among others. Tell your neighbors and friends to migrate our way on March 10!
The 15th Annual Great Backyard Bird Count starts Friday, February 17 and continues through Monday, February 20. We hope you'll count the birds in and around your yard and neighborhood. You can count for as little as 15 minutes and submit your list to Cornell for the nationwide data base. You can also count the birds in your local park or anywhere you travel these four days. As you know, our area has diverse habitats and this will be a great weekend to explore them and see what birds are here for the winter.
Cornell Lab of Ornithology has even prepared a "how to" video. The Williamsburg Bird Club has prepared a list of birds you can expect to see in our area in mid-February. You can download the PDF file here. Feel free to print out as many as you need. Please use one page for each "count" you do this weekend.Then go to Cornell's website and look for "submit your list" in the upper left corner. It's EASY!
Join members of the Williamsburg Bird Club and Historic Rivers Chapter Master Naturalists at York River State Park each day of the count (Friday - Monday) at 1:00 pm for a Park "Count." [There is a $3 per car entrance fee for the park.] From I-64, take the Croaker Exit 231B. Go north on Route 607 (Croaker Rd.) for one mile, then right on Route 606 (Riverview Rd.) about one and a half miles to the park entrance. Take a left turn into the park.
The Williamsburg area traditionally ranks as one of the areas in VA with the highest number of checklists submitted. So let's continue that tradition. Submit early and often!!
Join us Wednesday, February 15 for Everglades: Birds, Gators, and More, a photographic, video, and audio journey in the Everglades as described by Dean Shostak, Certified VA Master Naturalist, who led a group of 22 Bird Club members, Master Naturalists and Colonial Nature Photo Club members on nature expedition to the Everglades in mid-January. The group ventured out on dawn and dusk kayak trips, slough slogs, swamp walks, and swamp buggies to experience everything the Everglades offered. We'll enjoy Dean's stories along with participants' exquisite photos, video and audio of birds, gators, crocodiles, frogs, turtles, butterflies, and more. Plan to join us on February at 7:30 pm in Room 150, Millington Hall on the W&M campus. Virginia Boyles and Marilyn Adair will be providing the refreshments.
With your parking permit you can park in front of PBK.Walk around PBK on the right and follow the sidewalk past PBK and Andrews Hall (connected to PBK). Millington is located between Swem Library (on the left) and the new Integrated Science Center (on the right). Millington has the large metal ramp for handicap access. We'll be in the large auditorium just inside the doors behind the metal ramp. We'll have the greeting table in the lobby.
Members of the Williamsburg Bird Club will be on hand at Wild Birds Unlimited to answer your questions about birds of the Williamsburg area (including your backyard) and to help you prepare for the upcoming Great Backyard Bird Count.Saturday, February 11, come by Wild Birds Unlimited on Monticello Ave (near Martin's Grocery) between 1 and 2 pm to talk to knowledgeable area birders about your birds and where to find birds in the Williamsburg area.While you're there, pick up materials to prepare for the Great Backyard Bird Count February 17 - 20.Questions?

Shaesby Scott
Shaesby Scottâs inspiration is rooted in art and sculpture. He was exposed to the world of fine art by his mother, a prolific painter and printmaker. Shaesbyâs appreciation of art led to a fine arts degree in sculpture and an early endeavor designing furniture and sculpture. He opened his first studio while in college. It was then that he began his career manipulating metal. While living abroad in Rio de Janeiro, Shaesby discovered his passion for jewelry. He embraced the Brazilian custom of adorning the body with art. For Shaesby, jewelry design is a natural artistic process, making each piece a unique, wearable piece of art. Vibrantly colored Brazilian gemstones and highly expressive styles continue to influence Shaesbyâs work. In an effort to relate his work closely to nature, Shaesby spends much of his time traveling and exploring the world. âOne of my design principles is to distill what is found in nature into a wearable, comfortable piece of jewelry. My work does not truly come to life until worn.â Today, Shaesby produces sophisticated collections that fuse art with fashion. Each collection moves easily from day into night from one season to the next. Shaesbyâs unique sensibility is widely appreciated for being both highly fashionable and casually elegant.

When a child has some close friends at school, but some of them come from relatively richer families, so they get maybe twice my child's pocket money, how should I answer when he complains and asks to be on par with such friends?
Depending on their age, you may be able to use this to teach them about finances.
Also, you might give them an opportunity to earn a little more:
In addition to the answers already given, I would also point out those who are not as fortunate as you or the richer families.
Depending on the age of your child, it may be a good time to discuss community service. Take your child to a food bank or get involved in other activities where your child can experience both sides of the coin.
"That's great. I'm glad to see that you have ambitions. What do you think you can do to earn more money?"
I'm against the whole concept of just giving kids money. But if you are going to give it to him, I would respond to his complaints by having a discussion about fairness and equality and that they are not necessarily the same thing. Other topics for discussion would be: whether his friends do anything to earn their money, what trade-offs are associated with them getting more money (e.g. his Dad is rich and can give him more pocket money, but works so much he never gets to spend time with his Dad), etc.
Rich dad poor dad is by far the best resource that you can use for this. Give your child this very simple parable:
"Every morning an elderly man goes for a run. He looks to be in great shape and always has the energy. During his run, this old mans grandson can be found at home watching television. This grandson is overweight and never has the energy to run with his grandfather.
When you look at the grandfather, he looks to be in great shape and doesn't look like he needs the exercise. However, the grandson does look like he needs the exercise.
The same is true when it comes to money.
When it comes to people that are continuously spending their money, their bank statements are telling them that they need to learn how to start saving. But those that are saving wisely, look like they need to spend more often."
I would like to share how our parents raise us. When it comes to money matters, my mom is very transparent or vocal about our financial condition. Like she tell us that this is what we have, and we will have to spend it on this and that. In this way, I learned the value of money.
Based from experience, my parent's honesty about our financial status, had helped me to accept that we are not that rich compared with others. But it inspires me to study and persevere, because I know that with limited resources my parents are doing their best to support my needs. I believe that when you are honest with your children about your finances, slowly they could understand the situation, and from there, it may help them to persevere in life.

Last week, we asked you to define poverty. And we promised to share what our definition and understanding of poverty is and explain to you the basis of our holistic approach to ministry.
Today, Scott Todd, our Senior Ministry Advisor, begins with the meaning of poor as used in the Bible — something we'll build upon in future posts.
There are 178 uses of the word poor in Scripture. Although there are a few exceptions, the term poor in Scripture means economic/material poverty.
Review the following verses and notice the characteristics: insufficient food, cannot afford, cannot support himself, debt and shabby clothes.
- "Then the poor among you may get food" (Exodus 23:11)
- "If . . . he is poor and cannot afford these" (Leviticus 14:21)
- "If one . . . becomes poor and is unable to support himself" (Leviticus 25:35)
- "Pay him his wages each day before sunset, because he is poor and is counting on it" (Deuteronomy 24:15)
- "[T]he poor man had nothing except one little ewe lamb" (2 Samuel 12:3)
- "[T]he infant of the poor is seized for a debt" (Job 24:9)
- "Do not love sleep or you will grow poor; stay awake and you will have food to spare" (Proverbs 20:13)
- "[G]o, sell your possessions and give to the poor" (Matthew 19:21)
- "For Macedonia and Achaia have been pleased to make a contribution for the poor among the saints in Jerusalem" (Romans 15:26)
- "Suppose . . . a poor man in shabby clothes also comes in" (James 2:2)
The term poor in Scripture refers to an economic condition, but the circumstances and causes associated with that condition are complex.
The condition of poverty is sometimes associated with oppression, isolation and injustice. Consider Proverbs 13:23:
"A poor man's field may produce abundant food, but injustice sweeps it away."
Proverbs 19:4 speaks of social isolation:
"Wealth brings many friends, but a poor man's friend deserts him."
There are many conditions and experiences that surround economic poverty, but they are descriptions of the circumstances/causes and not definitions of it.
A person who has a right relationship with God can be economically poor:
"Better a poor man whose walk is blameless than a rich man whose ways are perverse" (Proverbs 28:6).
In other words, the term poor describes the mans economic condition despite his spiritually rich state.
Poverty can also exist in a person whose moral/spiritual condition is degraded:
"[D]runkards and gluttons become poor, and drowsiness clothes them in rags" (Proverbs 23:21).
A poor man may be wise and discerning:
"A rich man may be wise in his own eyes, but a poor man who has discernment sees through him" (Proverbs 28:11).
As another example, consider Ecclesiastes 9:15:
"Now there lived in that city a man poor but wise, and he saved the city by his wisdom. But nobody remembered the poor man."
Poverty can also result from foolishness:
"[T]he one who chases fantasies will have his fill of poverty" (Proverbs 28:19).
The verses above demonstrate that the terms poor and poverty as used in Scripture refer to economic poverty. They also show that the condition may exist in a person who is wise or foolish, godly or otherwise.
There may be a few instance in Scripture in which poor is used metaphorically, such as Revelations 3:17:
"You say, 'I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.' But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked."
There is also Jesus' unique use of the phrase "poor in spirit" in Matthew 5:3, which refers to a spiritual realities:
"Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven."
Despite these few exceptions, the case can overwhelmingly be made that references in Scripture to the poor or to poverty should be taken to mean economic poverty, unless the passage can clearly be argued to have a different meaning.

Harvest time is here! We are pulling out bushels of fresh veggies every week, not to mention all the pears we are picking. This week we harvested lettuce, two kinds of kale, chard, carrots, radishes, celery, leeks, onions, basil, and purple and green shiso.
"What is shiso", you ask? Shiso, pronounced she-so, is the Japanese name for an annual herb called perilla, which belongs to the mint family. Shiso comes in green or purple leaves with a slightly prickly texture and pointy, jagged edges, and it has a unique and vibrant taste that I could describe as herbaceous and citrusy. Like most leafy herbs, I find it is best used raw, the leaves whole or chiffonaded. The green variety produces more tender and more flavorful leaves than the purple variety, but the latter makes up for that with a potent dyeing action: it is what gives umeboshi its color.
Shiso is used in many asian cuisines, though most typically with Japanese dishes. It can be used anywhere mint or basil are called for. Some yummy suggestions include adding it to rice or soba noodles, sprinkling over tofu, adding it in a cucumber salad with rice vinegar, or in spring rolls. You can also make a pesto with it and put it on pasta, serve it with sashimi and rice, or try it with chicken stuffed with chopped umeboshi with soy sauce glaze. At Sakura Ridge, I use it in the Bento Box breakfast, perfect for days that it's too hot to cook! Anyway you make it, it is sure to add a fresh, herb flavor to your meal.

ZF-4807: Document general PHP performance tips
I hear that you can execute php faster if you set date.time_zone directive in php.ini .
origin of the information (In Japanese) ; http://d.hatena.ne.jp/sotarok/20080128/1201475353
I think that one general PHP performance tip that should be mentioned is in regards to cyclical references and memory performance.
It is my understanding that any object that has cyclical references will not be garbage collected in PHP. When a framework like zend framework is used for a longer process this can cause great problems. In my case, a script (using ZF) that only takes 26 seconds to complete keeps falling over with an out of memory error. In 26 seconds it was using over 100 MB for something quite simple. The reason? Every single data object that I had created was still in memory. As my data objects were hierarchical , they all had references to their parent and their children. This caused cyclical references and nothing was removed from memory.
I am now having to manually destruct my PHP object to achieve better memory performance.

Porous Reactor with Injection Needle
Application ID: 25
This application treats the flow field and species distribution in an experimental reactor for studies of heterogeneous catalysis. The model exemplifies the coupling of free and porous media flow in fixed bed reactors.
The reactor consists of a tubular structure with an injection tube that has its main axis perpendicular to the axis of the reactor. The incoming species in the main and injection tubes reacts in a fixed porous catalyst bed. The model couples the free fluid and porous media flow through the Navier-Stokes equations and Brinkman's extension of Darcy's law. The mass transport for the three species is modeled with the convection-diffusion equation.

The Smyrna Town Council didn't have a shortage of items to discuss Monday at their meeting, but one item under new business touched on a heavily discussed topic from the July 2 meeting — the vacant building registration fee.
Council passed the first reading of an ordinance in which the town will deposit fees and fines generated from the vacant building registration fee into a fund for the repair or demolition of vacant and dangerous buildings when property owners fail to take remedial actions.
The topic of the registration fee came up while discussing vacant buildings on Smyrna-Clayton Boulevard at the last council meeting.
Earlier in the meeting, town attorney Terry Jaywork informed council that the town had received a check for $51,000 from the sale of a property that had been in poor condition years ago that the town helped fix. The money also included payment of back taxes.
Should council eventually pass the ordinance, all funds recovered from these actions should be put in the special fund until the amount exceeds $50,000.
Councilman Bob Johnson did note that if this fund is eventually set up that the town would need to create a line item in the general fund. "Once the money is in the general fund, it can be put into the special fund," Johnson said, "This way it's properly accounted for."

Reviews for Classic Meat Loaf
"Great, simple recipe! Comfort food for sure. Hubby loved it!"
"Sometimes simple is best because you usually have all the ingredients on hand and the dish comes together quickly. Also, this recipe only contains ingredients that enhance the flavor of beef and you end up with a meat loaf that tastes just like you?re expecting it to taste. The end result was juicy, soft in texture not tight, sliced and held together really well and was just delicious. Paired it up with mashed potatoes and roasted zucchini from my yard. This is going to be my go to meat loaf recipe."
"After trying this recipe just once, my husband and kids got excited when hearing the word 'meatloaf'. If there are any leftovers, they are usually gone the next day. Awesome recipe and very easy!"
"My husband and I enjoyed this meat loaf; will make again."
"Well I would leave out the hot sauce and chili sauce-maybe use ketchup instead but this sounds really good"
