ZF-7953: Zend_Validate_Db_Abstract should use getter for adapter
It would make extensions to the Zend_Validate_Db validators a bit easier if the db adapter was accessible via a getter.
Use case: I need a validator that can validate against the context, so I set it up so that I can use placeholders in the exclude parameter that get swapped out with corresponding values from the context. To get the context values quoted, I need access to the adapter, except that I can't use $this->_adapter, as it hasn't been initialised yet. So I end up having to copy the init code from Zend_Validate_Db_Abstract::_query()
Patched Zend_Validate_Db_Abstract with new getter method
Patch unusable. Added feature as part of another on with r18417
Although r18417 added a getter/setter for the adapter, it would be more useful to let the getter have a default fallback like there is in the _query method. Otherwise each extensions requiring the adapter needs to duplicate that part of the query method, which is the reason why I raised the issue in the first place.
Could you give me a reason why my patch was rejected? Would be helpful for future contributions.
Your "patch" did not conform the API. When you add a getter you must also add a setter. When you do this for one option you should also do this for all other options, not only for a single one.
Related to _query: getAdapter return only what has been set. A default adapter is not set by the user, so it's not returned by getAdapter. And the adapter option can also be optional or set afterwards. So it is not filled per default.
Extending classes will not have to duplicate the adapter code, but simply use/extend _query for their own purposes.
But that's precisely the point. You cannot have an extension use the default adapter prior to querying without : 1. Duplicating the "get default adapter" code in _query() or 2. Providing a getter for it

Update: Meleka was kind enough to send over a copy of her {amazing} quiz! Download it here!
Inspired by the joy of classic children's books, Meleka of MMJ Events created a whole baby shower centered around a collection of everyone's childhood favorites.
All the inspiration for the food, drinks, and desserts were taken from each children's classic book ranging from Milk and Cookies (If You Give a Mouse a Cookie), Green Deviled Eggs (Green Eggs and Ham), Meatballs (Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs), Pink Lemonade (Pinkalicious), Moon Pies (Goodnight Moon), just to name a few. Each table was cleverly decked out with it's own book theme. I'm loving the "Corduroy" table which happens to be one of my favorite children's books. As a gift, the guests were encouraged to bring their favorite childhood book to share with the mother-to-be and in lieu of a card to write an inscription in the book to both mother and baby.
PARTY DETAILS, as told by Meleka…
When I originally spoke with Megan, we knew we wanted to have the guest bring their favorite book as a child with their message inside instead of a card. When thinking about this, I decided to take it a step further and have the whole party be centered around children's books.
I spend some time at the library going through all the books I enjoyed as a child. Seeing the cover of a book I haven't thought about in 20 years brought a big smile to my face. I checked out 20+ books and went to work. The inspiration for the food and dessert table all came from details from these old school books. We tested the guests memory with a quiz from 20 of the all time best children's book.

ZF-8158: Autoload bug with class_exists
In several places (I've only inidicated ones I've run into), class_exists() is called prior to calling Zend_Loader, however, it's called without overriding the default autoload behaviour, and is thus likely to interfere with autoload behaviour happening outside the framework and disable the internal use of Zend_Loader for Zend components. This was introduced in Zend framework 1.8.2. Various instances of this approach have since been fixed as bugs, such as http://framework.zend.com/issues/browse/ZF-6660 and http://zendframework.com/issues/browse/ZF-6591 so I think these should be fixed too.
I suspect that all uses of class_exists should be checked.
Yes, this is still present in 1.10.6 and it means I can't use ZF at all!
A quick grep finds me 97 instances of class_exists without a 'false' second parameter (though I'm not trying to resurrect #10053 here). I don't know if it's worth me generating what would be a pretty huge patch for all of them, plus I don't know ZF well enough to be able to fix all of them sensibly - are partial patches welcome?
(I've deleted my earlier comment as it was off-topic.)
ZF-6660 and ZF-6591 were special cases. In general, we want class_exists() without the second parameter (false) whenever it precedes a loadClass(), because it allows other autoloaders to execute.
If you've implemented your own autoloader, just make sure it doesn't throw an exception when the file/class is not found.
It's a shame you deleted your comment as it contained two of the instances that I'd run into! I'm calling Zend_Feed:import, which correctly uses Zend_Loader to load Zend_Http_Client, which correctly uses Zend_Loader to load Zend_Uri, but unfortunately that doesn't use Zend_Loader and calls class_exists before trying to load Zend_Uri_Http and thus breaks. Consistency is the key here, and your previously posted fix works perfectly in this case. "allowing other autoloaders to execute" is precisely what's breaking ZF; my autoloader is not compatible with ZF, nor should it need to be, and it's why Zend_Loader exists. Zend_Loader DOES call class_exists without the second param, so we should be using it everywhere, and not clumsily circumventing it randomly. As it stands it renders ZF unusable as a component library; if I can't load a component and call a function in it without breaking my app, it's broken. I'll post a patch for just this specific case rather than trying to fix anything bigger. Given that ZF2 has a very clear aim of doing everything with Zend_Loader via autoload, it seems silly not to head in vaguely the same direction in 1.x.
Diff against 1.10.6 to fix a couple of the mentioned instances of this problem.
Fixed for Zend_Http_Client in trunk rev.22537 (also noticed one more place where class_exists was used)
Fixed for Zend_Uri in trunk rev.22538
Fixes for Zend_Uri and Zend_Http_Client merged to release branch in 22539. Thanks for the patch!
marking this issue as resolved in 1.10.7

Rated 4 out of 5 by PecosCat Nice Napkins I have these napkins in three colors--henna, deep jungle (turquoise), and now chocolate. I washed the napkins immediately to see if they held their color. They do. They're cotton, so they need to be ironed. They are not fancy, but nicely hemmed, and the colors pop. December 30, 2013

Gardening Articles: Landscaping :: Trees, Shrubs, & Vines
Landscaping ... For the Birds (page 5 of 5)
by Lynn Ocone
Other Habitat Features
Dead Trees. Retain a standing dead tree if it's not in danger of falling. Snags, as they are called, provide nesting cavities for birds such as woodpeckers.
Ponds. In addition to providing water for birds, a small garden pond is excellent habitat for aquatic plants and other wildlife, including frogs and turtles. Locate the pond about 5 to 15 feet from protective cover.
Brush Piles. Birds and other wildlife will seek cover, food, and sometimes nesting places in a brush pile. Instead of hauling off your tree trimmings, create a brush pile (mixed with rocks and stones) in an out-of-sight corner of your property.
Meadows. A meadow of annual and perennial wildflowers, low-growing shrubs, and native grasses is a certain bird lure.
Some native grasses birds eagerly seek out for food and cover are bluestem (Andropogon), zones 4-10, depending on species; buffalo grass (Buchloe dactyloides), zones 3-9; northern sea oats (Chasmanthium latifolium), zones 5-9; switch grass (Panicum virgatum), zones 5-9; and Indian grass (Sorgastrum nutans), zones 4-9.
Birdfeeders & Baths. If you have space for just a few, place them in view from a window so you can enjoy the visitors. Locate them near trees or shrubs for cover.

"Compliance" is an intense, slow-motion headcase of a movie that will have you squirming in your seat and pleading with the movie's characters to act differently - over and over.
Starring newcomer Dreama Walker as Becky and theater actress Ann Dowd as her boss Sandra at a fictional fast-food restaurant called "ChickWich," the movie steadily works to a slow boil. Sandra spends much of the movie on the phone working with a local cop who tells her he received a theft report from the restaurant involving a customer's purse. He wants Sandra to find the money for him - he believes Becky's hidden it on her person - and thus begins a strange, psychological track involving people trying to do what they think is right.
Written and directed by Criag Zobel, the movie is based on true events involving about 70 cases that played out across 30 states more than five years ago. Zobel's first feature, "Great World of Sound" debuted at Sundance in 2007. "Compliance," is disturbing and provocative - and definitely worth seeing.

Walton County Sheriff's deputies are investigating what appears to be a high-tech burglary.
It happened overnight at the Silver Sands factory outlet in Miramar Beach.
One of the mall's security guards discovered the break-in at the coach store around 6:00 this morning.
The only visible evidence of Thursday morning's break-in was the broken glass in the Coach store's front door, an open back door, and a suspicious package nearby.
Walton County Sheriff' officials called in nearby fire departments and personnel from two area bomb squads.
Explosives technicians determined the package was not explosive, but it may have played an important role in the burglary.
It reportedly contained a device that disrupts alarm systems. Sheriff's investigator will not confirm that information.
Coach store managers are inventorying the merchandise to see what's missing, and Silver Sands management is reviewing the incident.
"Until that investigation is complete we'll keep our security procedures in place and after the investigation is completed and reported to us then of course we will be making a decision whether or not we will be changing our procedures or not," said Vice President of Operations Bill Bubel.
None of the other stores were affected by the burglary, but the Coach store remained closed Thursday.

I found this gem in a very neglected dollar store in the middle of upstate New York. Sometimes, the places you find the candy is as interesting as the candy itself. These Haviland Wintergreen Patties sat on the shelf next to several candies that shouldn't technically be sold anymore. We're talking the likes of Marshmallow Take 5 and other candies from 2006. I was relieved to find a date, and a fresh one, on the back of this mysterious Wintergreen Patty. I decided to give it a home.
Another tidbit about my personal tastes: I've never been big on mint, peppermint, and spearmint. Especially when it's mixed with other things, like chocolate. But wintergreen? I'm all over that stuff, I can't get enough of it. So all the rules from my taste buds about minty things are out the window when wintergreen shows up. I love it that much!
I was perplexed why I hadn't heard of this candy before, considering that I do make an effort to seek out wintergreen flavored things. Part of the answer is that Haviland is a subcategory of NECCO, which have a very interesting niche of products for the candy market. It immediately made sense in my mind; why it was so rare to find and of course in a place where people who'd remember it from childhood would possibly shop. I'd almost liken it to a regional candy in that respect.
When you open the package, you immediately you smell the wintergreen. The patty is large, 2 inches in diameter and about 1/3 inch thick. The chocolate is glossy and a nice rippled effect on top, like patterns on windblown sand. Breaking it in half, you can tell it's dense as it has that thick "give" to it like a Mounds or Almond Joy. The center is an incredibly bright pink and it looks very striking against the dark chocolate.
Surprisingly the wintergreen smell doesn't overpower the aroma of the chocolate, which is nice and sweet with notes of caramel. They blend beautifully together.
The wintetrgreen hits you right off in the first bite. It's strong yet it's not too much, and delivers that great minty, fresh, slightly spicy flavor. The taste does mellow and allows the chocolate to show the tastebuds some attention, and it comes across as nicely sweet and smooth with good notes of cocoa and a hint of coconut. I didn't find this as off putting in terms of minty "fresh" intensity like a York Peppermint Patty, but this has a good level of freshness, sweetness, and then the chocolate to balance it all out. The texture is awesome as it's thick and smooth with a slight graininess to it. It lasts a good time in the mouth if you just savor it slowly, which really adds to the satisfaction level.
So in conclusion: wintergreen+chocolate=YUM! Why isn't there more of this out there?

Scientific Misconduct Is Jeopardizing the Quality...
Widespread Adoption of Biomarkers Has Been...
Three-Dimensional Cell Culture Has Two Dimensions,...
Peptide Drugs Are Not Only Diverse...
Hamilton Robotics and Hamilton Storage Technologies has provided the National Institute of Mental Health (NIHM) program at the University of North Carolina (UNC) at Chapel Hill with a compound storage and screening system. It provides integration of -20°C compound library storage with an automated liquid-handling platform for screening assays, according to the companies.
The system installed at UNC integrates a Hamilton active sample manager system with two Microlab Star liquid-handling workstations, one with a 96-channel head and the other with 384 channels, using the Hamilton Rack Runner robot for tube transfer. It can store up to 100,000 compounds in 0.5 ml screw cap microtubes. It is the first installed system of its kind, according to the company.
"Many investigators send us their compounds for screening, often one or two at a time," says Jon Evans, project manager at UNC. "It's especially important to us that the Hamilton system can locate and pick individual vials or tubes and deliver them to the liquid handler for the automated assays. This new integrated system will significantly increase the throughput, capacity, and accuracy of our lab." Hamilton reportedly delivered the system within three months of the order, and a factory acceptance was successfully completed immediately prior to delivery.
The system will be leveraged by the NIMH Psychoactive Drug Screening Program at the UNC department of pharmacology and the division of medicinal chemistry. The program provides screening services to academic investigators, focusing on central nervous system receptors.
"This new integrated system will significantly increase the throughput, capacity, and accuracy of our lab," remarks Jon Evans, project manager at UNC. "It will allow us to do different kinds of assays and will provide complete chain of custody documentation."
Matt Hamilton, vp for Hamilton Storage Technologies, adds "The NIMH-funded screening center at UNC will be able to reduce assay time requirements by as much as 75 percent and to run assays unattended. This installation is a perfect example of how we can bring our liquid handling workstations and automated storage systems together and integrate them seamlessly."

- 1 can (8 ounces) whole water chestnuts, drained
- 1 can (8 ounces) unsweetened pineapple chunks, drained
- 1 jar (10 ounces) sweet-and-sour sauce
- Cut each slice of bacon in half widthwise. Wrap a strip around each chestnut or pineapple chunk; secure with toothpicks. Place in an ungreased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Bake at 400° for 25-35 minutes or until bacon is crisp.
- Pour sweet-and-sour sauce into a microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave on high for 1-2 minutes or until heated through. Serve with appetizers. Yield: about 2-1/2 dozen.
Reviews for Bacon-Wrapped Appetizers
"Naturally bacon is greasy, I put these on a broiler pan and they turned out. Depending how much fat is in the bacon and having them only on a jelly roll pan, most likely there will be a grease overflow."
"Oh boy. This didn't turn out well at all. Besides burning everything from the bacon grease. My whole house stunk up and all the smoke detectors rang. I didn't get a chance to see how they tasted because everything burned. Hope it works for someone else. Good luck. :("
"This recipe is good but I tend to like less sweet and sour. I make mine with a cup of ketchup and a half a cup sugar mixed, add in some sesame oil, soy sauce and garlic powder for an Asian taste. Have made it for years (at least 30) and my family adores it. Yet to find someone who does not like it."
"Another great bacon wrapped appetizer is olives! Place the olives in a bowl of water in the fridge for a few hours (because the tend to be salty and so is the bacon). My husband hates olives and even he eats these."
"I make little smokies & whole chestnuts wrapped in bacon,rolled in brown sugar & baked at 350* for years their great,everyone loves them."

Shakespeare sets his Hamlet play in the cold, dark isolation of Elsinor a bleak, snow-covered region of Denmark. It's the royal court of the King of Denmark. The atmosphere is established on the cold, windy battlements of the castle. Most of the action takes place in the interior rooms and corridors of the castle and one scene is set in a nearby cemetery. Read more detail on the settings in Hamlet.
Date written: 1601
Genre classification: Hamlet is regarded as one of Shakespeare's tragedies.

Main characters in Hamlet: Hamlet, the son of the recently murdered King is the heir to the throne. Hehas had the crown stolen from him by his father's villainous brother, Claudius whom thelate king's widow, Gertrude – Hamlet's mother – has married. Hamlet's father's ghost tellshim on the battlements that Claudius murdered him. Hamlet is continuously spied on by Polonius, the garrulous Lord Chamberlain of Denmark. His eavesdropping results in his being accidentally killed by Hamlet. Ophelia is Polonius' daughter. Led on to a possible relationship by Hamlet, then rejected, she commits suicide by drowning. Her brother, Laertesseeks revenge by plotting with Claudius to kill Hamlet.
Other characters are Hamlet's friend, Horatio, in whom he confides, Rosencranz and Guidenstern, Hamlet's fellow university students, who spy on Hamlet for Claudius, a troupe of strolling actors and a pair of gravediggers. See a full list of characters in Hamlet.
Hamlet Themes: The play falls into the genre of the Revenge Tragedy, which was very popular in the Jacobean era with its taste for violence and intrigue. Revenge is the most obvious, and one of the main, themes of the play. Although explorations of the idea of appearance and reality are present in all Shakespeare's plays, it's more fully developed in Hamlet, with all it's plotting, intrigues, deceit and hypocrisy.
Other themes are the question of what a human being is; death and mortality and suicide. In common with several other Shakespeare plays, there is a clear Christian parallel.

this is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo gooooooooooooooooooooood
Robin says:
Your facts are wrong. I have not read Hamlet, so i don't know what shakespeare have written in the play, but i can guarantee you, Elsinor does not lie in Jutland, but instead on the island Zealand. You write, "Shakespeare sets his Hamlet play in the cold, dark isolation of Elsinor in Jutland, ableak, snow-covered region of Denmark." The Castle Kronborg where the play takes place, lies in Elsinor and that is on Zealand and not Jutland.

Womens Basketball Headed to Postseason for Fifth Straight Year, WNIT Bound
Box Score
For the fifth consecutive season the Princeton women's basketball team will see postseason play, as the Tigers are headed to the WNIT following their 80-64 loss to Penn Tuesday at Jadwin Gym in the regular season finale.
With the loss Princeton concludes its four-year run as the Ivy League's supreme and finishes the regular season at 20-8, 11-3 Ivy, while Penn heads to the NCAA tournament with a 22-6, 12-2 Ivy record after winning its third Ivy title.
Princeton worked tirelessly, especially behind second half surges, but ultimately could never overcome Penn's consistent shooting all evening. The Quakers never trailed and only saw the score tied once, 2-2, at 18:43.
The Quakers built a double figure lead by 9:45, 16-5, and never saw it dip lower than seven over the opening period.
Blake Dietrick drained a triple at 6:29 to make it 20-13, but it would not be enough to create something for the Orange and Black and both sides would trade baskets down the stretch.
Unable to seize control, Princeton trailed Penn 32-19 at the break.
The Tigers opened the second half with a 4-0 run, but Penn hastily supplanted it with a 10-0 run of its own and from there the Quakers' lead would teeter around the 10-point mark.
Princeton saw its best attempt at swinging the game's momentum behind Annie Tarakchian's put back that opened up an individual 7-0 run nearing the 14-minute mark, making it a 10-point game, 42-32.
From there baskets were traded and Princeton was unable to ever garner enough pull to create a big momentum push.
Princeton finished shooting 37.5 percent (24-for-64) from the field, behind a trio of double figure scorers in Dietrick (14), Michelle Miller (12) and Tarakchian (12).
Penn shot 48.2 percent (27-for-56), guided by Alyssa Baron's game-high 23 points. The Quakers were able capitalize on Princeton's 16 turnovers which resulted in 25 points and extended their final cushion at the line on 20-of-27 shooting.
The Tigers will now await the WNIT Selection Show on Monday, Mar. 17 to find out their first round opponent.
Postgame Notes: Princeton ends four-year Ivy League championship run … this only the second time and first since 1995 the final game of the regular season served as a championship game in Ivy League history … Princeton's first appearance in the WNIT was 1996.

You can get your hands on Karl Lagerfeld–designed Diet Coke bottles, luggage and, of course, clothing, but how on earth is a Chanel-obsessed fashion fan expected to pack up all those chic belongings when she needs to rush off to some fabulous runway show?
In a Lagerfeld helicopter, silly.
London's Daily Mail reports that the iconic designer for Chanel as well as his own labels is working with helicopter company AgustaWestland to create what are sure to be the world's chicest choppers.
No word yet on how the helicopters will look, but there will be plenty of baggage room on board, according to the newspaper.
Well, that was a given, now, wasn't it?

To print, you need to connect a printer directly to your computer (when it is connected in this way, it's referred to as a local printer), or create a connection to a network or shared printer.
First, connect the printer to your computer following the manufacturer's instructions. Windows will attempt to automatically install the printer. If Windows can't automatically install it, or if you've previously removed the printer and want to add it again, follow these steps:
Open Printers by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel, clicking Hardware and Sound, and then clicking Printers.
Click Add a printer.
In the Add Printer Wizard, select Add a local printer.
On the Choose a printer port page, make sure that the Use an existing port option button and the recommended printer port are selected, and then click Next.
On the Install the printer driver page, select the printer manufacturer and model, and then click Next.
If your printer is not listed but you have the manufacturer's installation CD, click Have disk, and then browse to the folder where the printer driver is stored. For help, refer to the manufacturer's instructions.
If you don't have the installation CD, click Windows Update, and then wait while Windows checks for available drivers.
Complete the additional steps in the wizard, and then click Finish.
It's a good idea to print a test page
to check if the printer is working correctly. For more information, see Print a test page.
If you have added a printer but are unable to use it, your printer driver might not be compatible with Windows Vista. Check the printer manufacturer's website for the latest compatibility information and driver updates. For more information, see Find and install printer drivers.
Before you begin, make sure you know the name of the printer that you want to add. Sometimes the name is displayed on the printer itself. If the name is not on the printer, contact the printer owner or your network administrator to find out the printer's name before following the steps below.
In the Add Printer Wizard, select Add a network, wireless or Bluetooth printer.
In the list of available printers, select the one you want to use, and then click Next. If your computer is connected to a network, only printers listed in Active Directory for your domain are displayed in the list.
If prompted, install the printer driver on your computer.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
Available printers can include all printers on a network, such as Bluetooth and wireless printers or printers that are plugged into another computer and shared on the network. Make sure that you have permission to use these printers before adding them to the computer. For more information, see What are printer permissions?
You can't remove a printer if you have items in the print queue. If items are waiting to print when you try to remove a printer, Windows will wait until printing is complete, and then remove the printer. If you have permission to manage documents on the printer, you can also cancel all print jobs and then try to remove the printer again. For more information, see Cancel printing and What are printer permissions?
Right-click the printer that you want to remove, and then click Delete.
If you can't delete the printer, right-click it again, click Run as administrator, and then click Delete.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

The holidays can be a stressful time of year and especially if you have children!
Keeping kids entertained and busy during the holidays can be difficult and it's important to keep them on a loose schedule.
Clinical social worker Addison Wakeford says as long as you're prepared, the holidays are easy. Wakeford will be visiting the morning show team through November to give you and your family tips.
He will tackle everything from balancing the family, chores and stress to fighting the winter blues.
He suggests, lead by example, let the kids catch you being grateful for what you've got and not always wanting more. Show them how you appreciate the small things, like a beautiful sunset or an afternoon at the park. Teach them how to appreciate the world that surrounds them. Make ordinary appear extra special, and extra special what it is, a treat and exception, not anything to take for granted or to expect.
Addison suggest, setting out a family schedule every Sunday evening if you can and take them to volunteer at a local shelter or stock shelves at a food bank. Have them join you when you donate household goods or participate in fund raisers. Ask your kids to go through their items and find three things in good condition they could part with and give to a child who needs them. Explain how some children don't have warm coats or stuffed animals to play with. Let your children know how fortunate they are and discuss why it's important to share with others.
Focus on the joys of giving and talk about ways your kids can give gifts to others. Talk to your kids about being grateful. At the end of the day ask your children what they are grateful for. Help them recognize how many things in their life they have to appreciate, and how fortunate they are!

Re: Take the FICO Fitness Challenge!
1. FICO score goal is to reach 700 by mid 2010 and remain there or higher by the end of 2010.
2. Current Scores: TU 651 (12/31/09); EQ 633 (12/31/09); EX 638 (2/11/09)
3. Biggest is step is to stop accumulating new debt to cover/pay off old debt. I pay all accounts on time (last late payment is from 2004), however my UTL is high ... pretty much maxed out. I have paid off cards several times throughout the year only to charge back up. Therefore, I am going to my mothers (800+ Ficos across the board) rule of thumb: paying off my debt and only carrying 1 primary card PERIOD (maybe 2). I am paying off my current debt by highest APR first. Hope to have a dent by midyear. Using only debit for now until I get things under control and lower some balances.
Good luck to all and Happy New Year
Starting Score: EQ: 633 (12/31/09) TU: 651 (12/31/09)
Current Score: EQ:633 TU: 651
Goal Score: EQ: 700 TU:700
Take the FICO Fitness Challenge
Re: Take the FICO Fitness Challenge!
My goal for this year is to get to 700 on both EQ and TU for myself and to (help)establish credit for my wife. I would also like to pay off all of our CC debt and to start working on our car and house.
Right now my EQ is at 656 and my TU is at 630 (although I have not checked it since I had a large increse on EQ). Due to some recent closing of lines of credit by CC companies my util is around 40% but I should be able to pay it down in a month or 2.
I would also like to get to a point where I can refi my house. I am currently at 9% ARM and I want to lock in while rates are low. I bought a real fixer upper though, so I only owe 24,000 on it. The rates are not killing me, but I would prefer lower.
The info I have found here has already helped tremendously.
Re: Take the FICO Fitness Challenge!
Re: Take the FICO Fitness Challenge!
My current FICO's are TU 629 (came up 97 points since 4/13/09) and EQ 601 (only came up 18 points since 4/13/09).
My goal is to be in the 700+ club by YE 2010.
I recently obtained a small secured loan through the credit union to establish some good payment history. I deposited the loan into my savings account and setup automatic payments (set it and forget it!). This will only cost me $26 for a 12 month loan. I have a foreclosure on my credit that should be coming off this year and when it does, I'll be able to get an unsecured cc from the credit union. I can't say enough about the credit union. The loan officer advised me on what I need to get off my credit report, what I need to get on my credit report and how to establish a better relationship with them for future transactions (hopefully qualifying for a home loan).
I currently have a low credit limit cc that I paid off in December and will only use every other month and pay off immediately to keep the card active.
I also have some medicals on my CR that I intend to start getting off by the end of this month. Time to take a swat at the whole HIPAA process.
Good luck to everyone with their 2010 financial goals!
Starting Score: TU: 606 EQ: 600
Current Score: TU: 658 EQ: 661
2011 Goal Score: 750
Take the FICO Fitness Challenge
Re: Take the FICO Fitness Challenge!
Current score EQ = 676. Goal by the end of 2010 = 730.
Will continue to PIF, never late. Will let AAoA do it's thing and let this years inquiries and new accounts age past the 1 year mark.
I have done all I can as far as repair. Now I'm rebuilding.
Starting Score: EQ 618 TU 585
Current Score: EQ 680 TU 698 EX 681 (lender pull 04/2010)
Goal Score: EQ 720 TU 720
Take the FICO Fitness Challenge
Re: Take the FICO Fitness Challenge!
My FICO score goal for 2010 is 675.
My current middle score is 625.
I plan on taking this action by thinkin before I act and making sure to keep credit card debt low.
Re: Take the FICO Fitness Challenge!
My current scores are:
Experian Website: 695
My Fico (TU): 668
My Fico (EQ): 648
My goal for the end of 2010 is:
Ex: 725 or better
TU: 720 or better
EQ: 715 or better
My strategy: Pay all my CC/account balances in full, or atleast half, each month. Monitor my credit status via all 3 CR bureau's official website, as well as "my fico" (which I'm currently doing). Refrain from asking for uneccessary credit. Ensure that all past (settled) badies disappear upon their 7yr SOL, and maintain diligent communication with my current creditors. I believe I'm off to a good start. As of Jan 09, 2010. My car, bike, and cc are all paid off. My current available credit is 100%, and credit debt ratio-0. Wish me luck as I embark on my new journey, I kow I won't be alone because I have you all (my peers) to keep me grounded and on the right track. Good luck to you all.
Re: Take the FICO Fitness Challenge!
1. Your FICO score goal for 2010....At least 650 maybe 700+

ZF-6411: Provided .htaccess Rewrite Rules Result In Vulnerability
Section 184.108.40.206. Create the Rewrite Rules
RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -s [OR] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -l [OR] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d RewriteRule ^.$ - [NC,L] RewriteRule ^.$ index.php [NC,L]
The preceding rewrite rules work as intended, however if other code is in the publicly accessible directory along with the index.php bootstrap file, an attacker with precise knowledge of a full file path can access said file directly, bypassing the single point of entry.
Ideally, a production setup would have all library and application code outside of the webroot, but I've seen rewrite rules that effectively prevent this particular form of attack. Since I imagine the majority of users will be using Apache, I'd think it best to provide the safest rewrite rules possible in the documentation.
Part of the reason we went with this particular rewrite rule was because developers were discovering that as they added new filetypes to their document root, they were unable to access them without updating the rewrite rules. This became especially problematic once we added Dojo and jQuery support, which introduced a number of additional filetypes we had not previously accounted for.
Additionally, the best practice we have always advised is to keep non-public files outside of the document root.
My inclination is to simply provide a note in the documentation with a warning about potential abuses of this rule, but to leave it as is.
I think that's a fair compromise. Cheers for the prompt and thoughtful response!
Notes added to Zend_Application and Zend_Controller quick start docs in both trunk and 1.8 release branch.

Student hospitalized after assault at Tyro Middle School
Published: Tuesday, February 12, 2013 at 5:02 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, February 12, 2013 at 5:02 p.m.
A Tyro Middle School student was hospitalized last week after being choked by one of his peers, school officials said Tuesday.
Davidson County Schools Superintendent Dr. Fred Mock confirmed in an email there was an assault at the school Friday. A student placed another student in a choke hold, Mock said.
One student received medical attention and was transported to Brenner Children's Hospital in Winston-Salem, Mock said.
The extent of the student's injuries and medical condition was unclear Tuesday afternoon. Mock said he could not disclose the student's medical condition because of the confidential nature of that information.
When asked if the assault involved bullying, Mock said it appeared to be an isolated incident. He said school officials have not yet determined what caused the incident to occur.
Mock confirmed criminal charges have been filed but was not certain about the specific nature of those charges.
Capt. Mitch Kepley of the Davidson County Sheriff's Office said a juvenile petition was filed for one of the students involved in the assault. Kepley could not specify what charge was filed.
Mock said he could not comment on any disciplinary actions, citing the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act. However, Mock said he believes school officials have adequately addressed the situation.

Home Directories
Each user ID has a home directory on one of the NFS shared file systems. You have the same home directory regardless of what system you're on, including all login nodes and all compute nodes, so your files are accessible everywhere. Most of your work in the login environment will be done in your home directory.
OSC currently has a high performance NetApp applicance to provide home directories. The absolute path to the home directory for user ID usr1234 will have the form
/users/ project /usr1234 , where
project is the default project for the account (for example,
PAS1234). The environment variable
$HOME is the absolute path to your home directory. You should use
$HOME or
~/ instead of absolute paths to refer to your home directory wherever possible.
The default permissions on home directories for academic projects allow anyone with an OSC HPC account to read your files, although only you have write permission. You can change the permissions if you want to restrict access. Home directories for accounts on commercial projects are slightly more restrictive, and only allow the owning account and the project group to see the files by default.
Each user has a quota of 500 gigabytes (GB) of storage and 1,000,000 files. This quota cannot be increased. If you have many small files, you may reach the file limit before you reach the storage limit. In this case we encourage you to "
tar " or "
zip " your files or directories, creating an archive. If you approach your storage limit, you should delete any unneeded files and consider compressing your files using
bzip or
gzip . You can archive/unarchive/compress/uncompress your files inside a batch script, using scratch storage that is not subject to quotas, so your files are still conveniently usable. As always, contact OSC Help if you need assistance.
Home directories are considered permanent storage. Accounts that have been inactive for 18 months may be archived, but otherwise there is no automatic deletion of files.
All files in the home directories are backed up daily. Two copies of files in the home directories are written to tape in the tape library.
Access to home directories is relatively slow compared to local or parallel file systems. Batch jobs should not perform heavy I/O in the home directory tree because 1) it will slow down your job and 2) the home directory file servers don't handle heavy loads gracefully. Instead you should copy your files to fast local storage and run your program there.
Project Directories
For projects that require more than 500GB storage and/or more than 1,000,000 files, additional storage space is available. Principal Investigators should contact OSC Help to request additional storage in the "project" space outside the home directory. Allocations of one to five terabytes are typical. Small allocations can be granted by OSC staff; for large allocations you will have to submit a proposal to the Statewide Users' Group (SUG).
Project directories are created on the GPFS filesystem. The absolute path to the project directory for project PRJ0123 will have the following form:
/nfs/gpfs/PRJ0123 .
Default permissions on a project directory allow read and write access by all members of the group, with deletion restricted to the file owner. (OSC projects correspond to Linux groups.)
The quota on the project space is shared by all members of the project and corresponds to the allocation that was granted. It is typically 1-5TB with a limit of 1,000,000 files.
Project space is allocated for a specific period of time, usually one to three years. At the end of that time you may apply for an extension.
All files in the project directories are backed up daily, with a single copy written to tape.
The recommendations for archiving and compressing files are the same for project directories as for home directories.
Comments about access speed and file server load for home directories apply also to project directories. Batch jobs should not perform heavy I/O in a project directory.
Local Disk
Each compute node has a local disk used for scratch storage. This space is not shared with any other system or node.
The batch system creates a temporary directory for each job on each node assigned to the job. The absolute path to this directory is in the environment variable
$TMPDIR . The directory exists only for the duration of the job; it is automatically deleted by the batch system when the job ends. Temporary directories are not backed up.
$TMPDIR is a large area where users may execute codes that produce large intermediate files. Local storage has the highest performance of any of the file systems because data does not have to be sent across the network and handled by a file server. Typical usage is to copy input files, and possibly executable files, to
$TMPDIR at the beginning of the job and copy output files to permanent storage at the end of the job. See the batch processing documentation for more information.
The size of the temporary file space on each Oakley node is 812GB; on Glenn it is 392GB.. This area is used for spool space for stdout and stderr from batch jobs as well as for
$TMPDIR . If your job requests less than the entire node, you will be sharing this space with other jobs, although each job has a unique directory in
Please use
$TMPDIR and not /tmp on the compute nodes to ensure proper cleanup.
The login nodes have local scratch space in /tmp. This area is not backed up, and the system removes files last accessed more than 24 hours previously.
Parallel File System
OSC provides a Lustre parallel file system for use as high-performance, high-capacity, shared temporary space. The current capacity of the parallel file system is about 600TB.
The parallel file system is visible from all OSC HPC systems and all compute nodes at /fs/lustre. It can be used as either batch-managed scratch space or as user-managed temporary space. There is no quota on this system.
The Lustre system replaces the PVFS2 system that was previously available at OSC. There is no need for a special flag such as the :pvfs feature that was used in the past.
The batch system creates a scratch directory for each job on the parallel file system. The absolute path to this directory is in the environment variable
$PFSDIR . This directory is shared across nodes. It exists only for the duration of the job and is automatically deleted by the batch system when the job ends.
Users may also create their own directories under /fs/lustre. Please name the directory with either your user name or your project ID, for example,
/fs/lustre/usr1234 or
/fs/lustre/PRJ0123 . This is a good place to store large amounts of temporary data that you need to keep for up to a few months. Files that have not been accessed for some period of time, currently six months, may be deleted. Check OSC's data management policy for the official deletion schedule. While this system has been extremely reliable, it should be used only for data that you can regenerate or that you have another copy of. It is not backed up.
The parallel file system is a high performance file system that can handle high loads. It should be used by parallel jobs that perform heavy I/O and require a directory that is shared across all nodes. It is also suitable for jobs that require more scratch space than what is available locally. It should be noted that local disk access is faster than any shared file system, so it should be used whenever possible.
The Lustre file system is optimized for reads and writes that are done in large blocks, preferably at least 4MB. If you perform a lot of small operations, performance will be poor. Consequently, using lots of very small files will result in poor performance.
You should not store executables on the parallel file system. Keep program executables in your home or project directory or in
Those interested in striping should consult our Parallel Scratch Space Striping Guide.
File Deletion Policy
The parallel file system is temporary storage, and it is not backed up. Data stored on this system is not recoverable if it is lost for any reason, including user error or hardware failure. Data that have not been accessed for more than 180 days will be removed from the system every Wednesday.
If you need an exemption to the deletion policy, please contact OSC Help including the following information in a timely manner:
- Your OSC HPC username
- Path of directories/files that need exemption to file deletion
- Duration: from MM/DD/YY to MM/DD/YY (The max exemption duration is 180 days)
- Detailed justification

I've lost track of time since I arrived in this middle place; where days seem to disappear in a breath and yet minutes in those days stretch on for eternity. I neither know what I want or who I am any better than I did when I was 12, or 16, or 25. As the days pass I simply know more about who I am not, but this knowledge produces no new answers.
The thing I like least about becoming an adult is witnessing and experiencing the pain in life and understanding that it is now my job to keep that from settling onto my children like caustic volcanic ash—affecting their views, their dreams, the delicate fibers of their safety net constructed by ignorance, illusion, and hope. I sit and lay and dance and sleep with my arms outstretched trying to filter the ugliness from this world, so that for a time, my children can focus on the sunlight streaming in through morning windows or giggle at the ant struggling to carry a crumb twice the size of his miniscule body.
As an adult I know that too much sun will blister their skin. And that ant may be a bird's next snack.
This middle place in inevitable. When you are young you envision how you'd like your life to be—where you'll live, the things that will motivate you—you dream and plan and prepare and then you meet Mr. Right. or Miss Perfect.
Together you both dream about a shared union of compromise and compassion, talk of kids and jobs and kitchen colors, promising to always, always keep communication open. You laugh about each other's iniquities and peccadilloes; the toothpaste tube squeezed from the middle, the urine on the toilet seat, the nail clipping she leaves on the bedside table. In naive earnest you promise each other you won't let the kids change you, you will always talk through everything, and most importantly—you'll grow and change together. Forever. Promise. Whatever it takes.
You awake the next morning and ten years have gone by and you find yourself wondering over morning coffee and a sink load of dirty dishes how you ever got to this place and what happened to the goals and dreams you had and the promises you made to yourself, and wait a minute…
Just who are you anyway? A glance in the mirror reveals the child you were just yesterday, in fact you're pretty sure you graduated from high school last week, but suddenly there are more wrinkles and lines, and you don't recognize the face staring back at you. Where did you go?
This middle place produces casualties; marriages of your friends ending around you because maybe they too woke up one morning and wondered who was lying next to them in bed and it occurs to them they don't know this person any better than they know themselves. They've slept angry for years. The nail clippings and toothpaste tubes and peed on toilet seats become F-5 tornadoes that threaten to destroy the house, ripping out walls and scattering crayon pictures and homemade popsicle stick frames. The storm is always brewing just beneath the how-was-your-days and the peck-on-the-cheeks. All us middle people smile and dance because there are always little eyes watching and tiny ears listening and their dreams at night are scary enough.

Charter school application raises questions
Published: Friday, March 8, 2013 at 12:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, March 7, 2013 at 2:42 p.m.
Students in Davidson County already have several educational options: traditional public schools, Yadkin Valley Regional Academy (geared to science, technology, engineering and math), Davidson Early College (where students graduate with college credits), religious schools, private schools and home schools. Now a group of county residents wants to add another option, the county's first charter school. Davidson Academy, Inc., applied to the state to open a school for the 2014-15 school year.
The name Davidson Academy, of course, is familiar. A private school by that name (and later Davidson Country Day School) existed from 1997 until 2009, when it closed. Jane Whitehurst, who helped found Davidson Academy and also previously served on the Lexington City Board of Education, is president of the proposed charter school board. Her actions demonstrate she believes additional educational options are needed in Lexington.
But at what cost? The funding for charter schools comes from existing public school systems. Davidson Charter Academy anticipates drawing 125 students from Davidson County Schools its first year, 59 from Lexington City Schools and 32 from Thomasville City Schools. That would mean the loss of state, local and federal funds amounting to $835,813.45 for the county, $424,493.89 for Lexington and $236,710.56 for Thomasville.
While the projection for number of potential students seems high, and if fewer enrolled the three systems would lose less money, any reduction in funding would raise concerns for the public schools. Systems have cut jobs and eliminated programs in recent years due to the economic downturn and tight state budgets. Davidson County spent $7,184.19 per pupil in 2011-12, which ranks below the state average of $8,436.44 (Lexington and Thomasville both ranked above the state average), according to state statistics, and that figure could drop even lower with reductions.
Charter schools tend to serve students who rank toward the top or bottom of academic abilities. Davidson Charter Academy didn't identify its target group, as some of the other 70 applications did, but instead proposes to reach a similar demographic that already exists in the county. Organizers were hesitant to discuss plans, and some specifics weren't spelled out in a press release they distributed. So the location of a potential school remains unknown, although the American Children's Home could be used initially.
The school's growth plans seem ambitious, too, not only with construction of a building three years after start-up but a population of 400 students by its fourth year. Many differences would exist with the previous Davidson Academy, but building debt coupled with a lack of enrollment contributed to that school's closing.
Despite some of these concerns, the school has a solid shot at becoming a reality. Charter schools have found a much more favorable political environment in the state, including the lifting of one charter per county. The State Board of Education approved 24 of 25 applicants presented Wednesday, and those schools will open in the next two years. But the potential effect on public school funding shouldn't be overlooked.

Ahh…That's More Like It
Up until just recently, the Minnesota Twins had owned the Kansas City Royals. During the "division title years" earlier this decade, the Twins would routinely come into KC and get fat both at the plate and on the mound. Recently (the past few seasons), though, the Royals have morphed into one of our toughest divisional opponents. Though perennial cellar-dwellers (although I won't gloat too much, as I, having grown up in the 1990s with Twins Baseball, know what that is like), the Royals seem to bring their A-game when the Twins come to town. The first two games of this series only served to continue that trend, with the Twins and Royals playing each other very tough, right down to the wire.
That being said, today the Royals reverted back to their old ways and gave the Twins a much-needed victory. Glen Perkins was by no means perfect (allowing 10 hits over seven innings), but the Royals could only muster a measly one run for all their efforts. More daunting, though, were the defensive miscues, such as a ball that went right through the wickets of second baseman Callaspo, and a ball lost in the sun by Willie Bloomquist. John Bale walking in a run even put a cap on things. For a time, and had the Twins not needed a win so badly I would have felt worse, I felt bad for the boys in royal blue, as this kind of play just seems to be their kind of lot in life. I know how difficult it is to compete in today's game without a large payroll, and the Royals continue to get bit time and time again. Whenever a guy gets good (Johnny Damon, Carlos Beltran, etc.) he gets shipped somewhere else, or else a player that once looked great suddenly falters and is gone within a year or two (too many to count).
The Twins were actually really lucky back in the early 2000s to have the nucleus (Santana, Hunter, Jones, Koskie, Dougie Baseball, Guzman, etc.) come together so quickly. The Royals have not been so lucky, instead reduced to playing "payroll roulette" and hoping the hit the jackpot. Were it not for the fact that the Twins need to make a living by beating them, I would love to see the Royals develop into a competitive franchise once again.
Preview (41-39, T-2nd w/CWS, 3.0 GB DET): Lucas French (0-0, 0.00) vs. Kevin Slowey (10-3, 4.41). The fact that the Tigers, playing in perhaps the most important series of their season so far (as are the Twins), are sending a guy making his major league debut to the Metrodome mound tells you something about where they are right now pitching-wise. Hopefully the Twins can take advantage of it.

By Aaron Bell
It was supposed to be a banner year for Alex Galchenyuk.
The Sarnia Sting forward went into training camp a year ago ready for a breakout season and to prove that he should be considered a top NHL Draft prospect - just like his teammate Nail Yakupov.
Galchenyuk was the former first overall pick in the OHL draft and scored 31 goals and 83 points as a rookie with the Sting. He was primed for even more as a sophomore.
But Galchenyuk didn't even get to start the season. He suffered a serious knee injury in a pre-season game against the Windsor Spitfires when he crashed awkwardly into the Spitfires' net. The injury required surgery and Galchenyuk was forced to sit out until the final two games of the season.
Fortunately for the Sting, Galchenyuk is back this season - and in a big way. He leads the team with eight goals and 21 points in 15 games and is thrilled to be back on the ice.
"Right now, I'm just hungry - I want to play," Galchenyuk said. "I missed the whole year and I just want to be productive and help the team win."
Galchenyuk's injury did little to hurt his draft status. Yakupov went first overall to the Edmonton Oilers at the draft last June but Galchenyuk was scooped up two picks later by the Montreal Canadiens.
"We had our eyes on him all along," Canadiens' GM Marc Bergevin told the National Post after selecting Galchenyuk in Pittsburgh. "I met him a few times and I was impressed. He's a very worldly guy."
Galchenyuk is doing everything that he can to prove to the Canadiens that they were right to not let his injury scare them away.
"It was tough missing last year," Galchenyuk said. "But I did a lot of work (to get back) and I had a lot of help with the doctors and all of the medical staff.
Galchenyuk has helped the Sting jump out to an 8-6-0-1 record this season. He has points in all but three games this season, including a four point effort against the Soo Greyhounds and three-points each against the Spitfires and Brampton Battalion in October.
Galchenyuk has also helped the Sting put together the best powerplay in the league so far. They are operating at a 32.2% effectiveness with the man-advantage.
"We work hard on the powerplay during practice," said Galchenyuk, who has two goals and six assists on the powerplay this season.
"Special teams are key in this league and we're having success on the powerplay - hopefully we can keep going with that."

By Keris Myrick, NAMI Board Member
This New Year, like many before, I attended the Rose Parade in Pasadena, Calif. with my dad. We sat in our traditional grandstand seats at the intersection of Orange Grove and Colorado Boulevards, which marks the starting point for the Rose Parade. This year, however, there was a bonus "parade." Thousands of members of the Occupy Movement had announced that they would "occupy the Rose Parade." As one person put it, they hoped to "…inspire people to know that there is hope for a global community working and acting together for a better world."
The peaceful and very diverse group marched by like a giant bright rainbow! The various banners, flags, slogans, and outfits were quite a sight especially after viewing the bright, beautiful floats, many touching our hearts with messages of survival and hope.
A bright yellow banner emblazoned with a quote by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. caught my father's eye and then mine:
"Of all the forms of inequality, injustice in health care is the most shocking and inhumane."
So many of Dr. King's inspiring words echo deeply with my lived experiences in this world as:
- A person of color
- A woman
- A person who grew up around the world as a global nomad (an Army brat)
- A person who has been given a serious mental illness diagnosis
- The daughter of a black man from the south who was directly and adversely impacted by racism and who lived through the Civil Rights movement
Ultimately we know when a movement is powerful—it resonates at the collective level, changing systems, minds, hearts and nations no matter how one identifies. A movement is powerful when its core principles are continually replicated by people and groups seeking justice of any kind.
As a member and leader in NAMI, I think of my involvement as being in a movement that resonates with the words and actions of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. when we advocate for:
- Equal access ("A right delayed is a right denied." – MLK)
- Humane and effective treatment for people with serious mental illness ("Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere." – MLK)
- Hope ("No person has the right to rain on your dreams." – MLK)
Most importantly I never give up; my dad never gives up; my peers never give up; I see my NAMI friends as tireless in their efforts too.
"If you can't fly then run, if you can't run then walk, if you can't walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward."
– Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

If this ad is visible, the item is still For Sale. I update regularly. $60.00 I HAD to have this device for my Birthday in 2005. I filled out my FEMA application, in a hotel near Lafayette, and emailed President Bush from the only computing device that I took with me during the evacuation. Now my everyday carry, cell phone, does the same thing as this $600.00 handheld device. However this is a good hardware platform for Mods and I am offering it for sale. From the picture you can see that there is a variety of accessories included. Will consider Offers. To quickly and easily *EMAIL* me your interest in purchasing this item, click, More Info (if you haven't already), then Ask Advertiser a Question, in the top -right area, of the new Ad. You simply fill in the data areas, in the pop-up box, and then click, Send! It is so easy to do, and you don't have to open your email! It works great! I will respond quickly, with email and/or voice contact, (if you send me your telephone number) with answers to any questions that you may have. Thanks for Looking, and Please Respond, if you are interested.
