The SEQUENCE statement introduced in SQL Server 2012 brings the ANSI SQL 2003 standard method of generating IDs. This is a great relief to database professionals as it solves some problems what are awkward to solve with the IDENTITY property. Joe Celko explains the basics of using a SEQUENCE
SQL Server now has the ANSI/ISO Standard CREATE SEQUENCE statement. Hooray! The bad news is that most programmers will not be aware of the significance of the underlying math. A SEQUENCE is not an IDENTITY. That propriety feature in T-SQL is a table property inherited from the old Sybase/UNIX days. It counts the number of insertion attempts, not even successes, on one particular machine. This goes back to how files were managed on UNIX systems in the 1970s. In those systems, you needed record numbers to locate the data, so T-SQL exposed this count as IDENTITY. Also, when a record was deleted, a bit flag on each record might be set to signal a garbage collection routine to remove this data during a file utility clean up.
Obviously, IDENTITY increments its value from physical insertion to physical insertion; no big jumps, no gaps. Again, IDENTITY is not a column; it is a table property. That means it cannot be a key by definition. Remember a key is a subset of columns that are unique in every row of a table. It is not an integer; you cannot do meaningful math on it. It is non-deterministic. If you insert a set of more than one row into a table, the rows will be inserted one at time in an order determined by the indexes, internal state of the hardware and number of sessions open at the time.
We have, for a long time, created a table of integers that has all sorts of uses. It starts at 1 and goes to some sufficiently large value. Its name depends on the author of the table. You will see "Numbers", "Sequence", "Tally_Table" and "Series" among others. Obviously, we can no longer use "Sequence"; it is a reserved word! I used it myself, and so I'll have to re-write my books from now on. Darn. I always thought that "Numbers" was too generic; which numbers?? I never liked "Tally", since a tally is a current score or amount, a running total, or count. It is not a set, but a process. I settled on "Series" for my stuff since a series is a completed (infinite) set, but it is not the right word.
Now, let's do math.
What is the Difference Between a Sequence and a Series?
A sequence is a list of numbers. The order in which the numbers are listed is important, so for instance {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, …} is one sequence, and {2, 1, 4, 3, 6, 5, …} is an entirely different sequence. This is important. It means we can talk about the i-th member of the sequence.
A series is a sum of numbers. A classic example is: 1 + 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 + … which converge to 2 (or you can loosely say it will equal 2 at infinite). The order of terms can change the limit to which the series converges or it might not ("absolutely convergent"). Okay, too much math for a database article.
Sequences and series are closely related to each other. But a sequence is not summed.
Tag Numbers versus Sequence
A tag number is string, usually of fixed length, made up of digits. The digits are in sequence to make them easy to sort and to generate. Think of a serial number on a manufactured product. The most common example is a vehicle identification number (VIN). This is a unique code is used by the automotive industry to identify individual motor vehicles, as defined in ISO 3833. The positions 12 to 17 are a sequence prefixed by codes for the Manufacturer Identifier, some vehicle attributes, a check digit, model year, and plant code.
The check digit is a major reason we like tag numbers. This is a topic in itself, but the idea is that we can take each digit in the tag number and run it thru a formula as an integer. We get a result, usually another digit, and we attach it to the tag number. For example, the Luhn algorithm is a common method
defined by ISO/IEC 7812-1. We like it because it is simple to put in hardware.
1. Compute the sum of the digits .
2. Take the units digit from this total.
3. Subtract it from 10.
It's not a great check digit, but it catches most of the common input errors – missing digits, extra digits, wrong digits and pairwise transposes.
Now let's into the SQL.
The CREATE SEQUENCE Statement
This statement creates a schema level object that is accessible to any user. It is not part of a table. It is not a procedure that belong to one user. The idea is that a user can invoke the SEQUENCE with a special syntax that is used wherever an integer value of the SEQUENCE data type would work.
If you want a physical model, imagine you are in the butcher store. You walk in and pull a service ticket number from a roll of tickets on the counter. Sequence numbers are generated outside the scope of the current transaction, just like the tickets. The numbers are consumed whether the transaction using the ticket number is actually served (committed) or they walk out (rolled back).
NEXT VALUE FOR [<database_name>.] [<schema_name>.] <sequence_name>
[OVER (<over_order_by_clause>)]
I will explain the OVER() clause later; just keep the simple butcher store model in mind for now. Let's look at the roll of tickets (i.e. CREATE SEQUENCE). It has to be declared with parameters that define behavior.
CREATE SEQUENCE [<schema_name>.] <sequence_name>
[AS [built_in_integer_type | user-defined_integer_type]]
[START WITH <constant>]
[INCREMENT BY <constant>]
[{MINVALUE [<constant>]} | {NO MINVALUE}]
[{MAXVALUE [<constant>]} | {NO MAXVALUE}]
[{CACHE [<constant>]} | {NO CACHE}]
Let's go thru the BNF in detail. The <sequence_name> and its qualifiers explains itself. This is pure SQL. Sequence numbers are generated outside the scope of the current transaction. They are consumed whether the transaction using the sequence number is committed or rolled back. Think about the butcher shop ticket that gets dropped on the floor.
A sequence can be defined as any integer type: That means TINYINT, SMALLINT, INTEGER and BIGINT; but it also allows DECIMAL (s, 0) and NUMERIC(s, 0) data types. You can also a user-defined data type that is based on one of the allowed types. Do not do that if you value portability.
If no data type is provided, BIGINT is the default. Do not use this unless you really need a range of -2^63 (-9,223,372,036,854,775,808) to 2^63-1 (9,223,372,036,854,775,807), which makes 'Big Data' seem like note on the back of the hand. As with most defaults, this is the largest, safest value in the problem space.
START WITH <constant>
This is the first value returned by the sequence. The START value must be a value between the minimum and maximum values. The default start value for a new sequence is the minimum value for an ascending sequence and the maximum value for a descending sequence. Note this is a constant; no function calls.
INCREMENT BY <constant>
Value used to increment (or decrement if negative) the value of the sequence for each call to the NEXT VALUE FOR. If the increment is a negative value, the sequence is descending; otherwise, it is ascending. The increment cannot be 0, obviously. The default increment for a new sequence is 1. Again, this is a constant and not a function call.
[MINVALUE <constant> | NO MINVALUE]
Specifies the bounds for the sequence. The default minimum value for a new sequence is the minimum value of the data type of the sequence. This is zero for the TINYINT data type and a negative number for all other data types.
NO MINVALUE is probably a really bad design choice . You probably wanted zero or one.
[MAXVALUE <constant> | NO MAXVALUE
Specifies the bounds for the sequence. The default maximum value for a new sequence is the maximum value of the data type of the sequence.
NO MAXVALUE is probably another bad design. If you are going to use this to create a tag number, you have to worry about overflowing the length of your string.
If you are casting the numeric data type to strings for tag numbers, you will want to be sure that the numbers do not overflow in the conversion. And you probably do not need the upper limit of a data type.
Property that specifies whether the sequence should restart from the minimum value (or maximum for descending sequences) or throw an exception when its minimum or maximum value is exceeded. The default cycle option for new sequences is NO CYCLE. Note that cycling restarts from the minimum or maximum value, not from the start value.
[CACHE [<constant>] | NO CACHE]
I am not going to explain Cache management. This is an implementation detail and I do programming.
In many financial applications, you cannot afford gaps. For example in Italy, invoice numbers have to be in a strict sequence by law. But you can lose all of the numbers in cache in the event of a major failure, so while it is faster, it is also dangerous. Remember that today "ROI" means "Risk of Incarceration"
OVER (ORDER BY ..) Clause
Remember earlier in this article when I mentioned that how IDENTITY in assigned to each element of a a set insertion was not deterministic? SEQUENCE has a way to fix this problem; you can order the sequence! If another process is accessing the sequence object at the same time, the numbers returned could have gaps.
An OVER clause applied to the NEXT VALUE FOR function does not support the PARTITION BY or the [ROW | RANGE] subclauses for obvious reasons. The following additional rules apply when using the NEXT VALUE FOR function with the OVER clause:
Multiple calls to the NEXT VALUE FOR function for the same sequence generator in a single statement must all use the same OVER clause definition. Again, this is obvious.
Multiple calls to the NEXT VALUE FOR function that reference different sequence generators in a single statement can have different OVER clause definitions. They are separate schema objects.
If all calls to the NEXT VALUE FOR function in a SELECT statement specifies the OVER clause, an ORDER BY clause may be used in the SELECT statement. Again, the SEQUENCE is a separate schema object.
The OVER clause is allowed with the NEXT VALUE FOR function when used in a SELECT statement or INSERT … SELECT … statement. The NEXT VALUE FOR function is not allowed in UPDATE or MERGE statements.
Programming Examples
To get a feel for how this works, create a simple sequence and play with it.
CREATE SEQUENCE Invoice_Seq
Now, just play with it. Just hit "SELECT NEXT VALUE FOR Invoice_Seq;" a few times, or in SSMS execute …
SELECT NEXT VALUE FOR Invoice_Seq;
SELECT NEXT VALUE FOR Invoice_Seq;
After you hit 99 and then invoke the next value, you will get this message.
Msg 11728, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The sequence object 'Invoice_Seq' has reached its minimum or maximum value. Restart the sequence object to allow new values to be generated.
We did not talk about this "restart" option yet. It is a straightforward ALTER statement.
ALTER SEQUENCE <sequence name> RESTART [WITH <constant>];
The WITH option lets you assign the new starting value. If you do not give a specific value, the default is the original starting value. In this example, we can use:
ALTER SEQUENCE Invoice_Seq RESTART WITH 3;
SELECT NEXT VALUE FOR Invoice_Seq;
this will return 3. Most of the situations where you want to re-start a sequence can be done with the CYCLE clause.
The use of the ORDER BY clause can let you build groupings. Create a sequence groups of ten:
CREATE SEQUENCE Ten_Seq
Now use it in a query that breaks the students into groups of ten
SELECT student_id, student_name,
(NEXT VALUE FOR Ten_Seq OVER(ORDER BY student_id))
AS student_grouping
FROM Students;
Converting the sequence into, say, a four digit invoice serial number is pretty simple. It is important to use VARCHAR(n).
SELECT 'IN:' + RIGHT ('0000' + CAST (NEXT VALUE FOR Invoice_Seq AS VARCHAR(5)), 4);
But a fun example is that of using the same sequence in more than one table. Let's go back the original service ticket example. When you come into the shop, you pull a ticket.
CREATE SEQUENCE Service_Ticket_Seq
We have two departments in this delicatessen, meats and fish. If you have been to a Kosher market, you know that these two areas are kept separate. A ticket can be used in only one department.
CREATE TABLE Meats
(ticket_seq INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
meat_type VARCHAR(15) NOT NULL);
CREATE TABLE Fish
(ticket_seq INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
fish_type VARCHAR(15) NOT NULL);
CREATE PROCEDURE Ticket_Service
(@in_market_code CHAR(1),
@in_product_name VARCHAR(15))
DECLARE @local_ticket_seq INTEGER;
SET @local_ticket_seq = NEXT VALUE FOR Service_Ticket_Seq;
IF @in_market_code = 'M'
INSERT INTO Meats
VALUES (@local_ticket_seq, @in_product_name);
ELSE IF @in_market_code = 'F'
INSERT INTO Fish
VALUES (@local_ticket_seq, @in_product_name);
Now, let' call the procedure a few times:
EXEC Ticket_Service 'M', 'Brisket';
EXEC Ticket_Service 'F', 'Lox';
EXEC Ticket_Service 'M', 'Chicken';
EXEC Ticket_Service 'M', 'Brisket';
EXEC Ticket_Service 'F', 'Sturgeon';
EXEC Ticket_Service 'F', 'Haddock';
And now let's see how this works.
SELECT * FROM Meats;
SELECT * FROM Fish;
If I UNION the two tables, I get a complete sequence and I am sure their intersection is empty. Doing this without a SEQUENCE is a lot harder. But I did resort to if-then-else flow control because I have two different tables. UGH!
I can put a SEQUENCE in the DEFAULT clause of the DDL for table:
CREATE TABLE Service_Tickets
(ticket_nbr INTEGER DEFAULT NEXT VALUE FOR Service_Ticket_Seq,
department_code CHAR(1) NOT NULL
CHECK (department_code IN ('M', 'F')));
Now play with this code.
INSERT INTO Service_Tickets (department_code)
SELECT * FROM Service_Tickets;
That is cool! But do not stop here. Let's re-do the Meats and Fish tables with this feature, because we can then do inserts without the need for a procedure and still be sure of an empty intersection:
CREATE TABLE Meats
(ticket_seq INTEGER DEFAULT NEXT VALUE FOR Service_Ticket_Seq
meat_type VARCHAR(15) NOT NULL);
CREATE TABLE Fish
(ticket_seq INTEGER DEFAULT NEXT VALUE FOR Service_Ticket_Seq
fish_type VARCHAR(15) NOT NULL);
Now, to get you started, try these statements. I dropped the kosher theme :)
INSERT INTO Meats (meat_type) VALUES ('pig');
INSERT INTO Fish (fish_type) VALUES ('squid');
SELECT * FROM Meats;
SELECT * FROM Fish;
There are no guarantees as to how the sequence numbers will be assigned; it is pretty much first-come, first-served in the system. Did you notice that the sequences are the PRIMARY KEY?
INSERT INTO Meats VALUES (8, 'Cat');
will give us:
Msg 2627, Level 14, State 1, Line 1
Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK__Meats__467BFD06C5684404'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'dbo.Meats'. The duplicate key value is (8).
The statement has been terminated.
And this is all declarative code!

This morning I had the sad task of going with Maynard to escort my look-a-like brother, Screech, home to the Rainbow Bridge. He was a little over 9 years old. He was the last of my siblings that was still alive. It was a big surprise to mum to find him gone this morning but he hadn't been gone for very long. He had come home to his favorite bed and laid down for his final sleep. He was waiting on Sunday in front of the house so he could wish her a Happy Mother's Day when mum and hudad came home from the Mountaineer Iron Classic Car Show and saw the trophies that mum and hudad's cars had won. He checked out the trophies as they sat on the porch step so mum could get their things out of the car. Then off he took to play with the girl kitties in the yard next door. So he didn't suffer a long time. When we got to the Bridge, I introduced him to two of our Catster friends, Ginngie and Tommy, who came to the Bridge last week. Now we are all showing Screech around and getting him introduced to the best play spots and the comfy napping spots.

Thank you all soooo very much for your love. I will miss you all but I will make sure to visit as often as I can. CATSTER/DOGSTER is the best place in the World and has the greatest members who make their friends feel soooo special. I LOVE YOU ALL!
Hello to all my Catster/Dogster friends. I arrived at the Rainbow Bridge on Sunday after battling Kidney Failure for the last 2 months. I had been really sick this last week and mum knew on Saturday afternoon when I wouldn't eat or drink that my time with her was very limited. Two other new Angels and I were met at the Gates by Maynard, Frankenstein, Chrissy, Sir Sonny Bono, little Bagpuss, Mr. Sam and so other many Angel friends and given a grand tour of the RB. Next we were fitted with our new wings and started flying classes. Zack, Scrappy Doo and I did pretty good at flying except I tend to want to slide on my landings and do donuts in the clouds. I even slid into the Gates here at the Bridge and that made the other Angels giggle. And I am sure mum was giggling too. I miss you all and mum but I want you to know I am very happy here. I am no longer suffering and am young again and can romp and play. Sir Sonny Bono even took me for a ride in his Hummer. That was soooo fun. And right after I got here, I saw my momma kitty who was a beautiful Siamese lady. You all know how moms are- she had to wash my face first thing when she saw me. My other brothers and sisters are here too and it was nice to see and play with them and tell them all about how Screech (my twin brother still at mum's who is realllly feral) have been doing. Then Maynard took me to the Earth Window Room and let me look down on mum and all my friends. I saw that Screech and his pretty black girlfriend with the gold eyes were looking for me when mum went out to feed. Then I saw all the messages being posted and the gifts that you all left for me on my page. Thank you all sooooo very much for those and the love that you all have showed ME and mum. You are all right here in my heart and will always be with me and a part of me will be with you. Remember that all the other Angels and I will be watching over you and here to greet you when you come to this beautiful place. Well, I have to go now and practice my landings so when I come to visit mum and leave sweet Angel kissies, I won't slide into her and knock her down. I will write a Thank you in my diary for all of those prezzies and who they came from so check it out later today. Bye and talk to you again soon, Church.

Free Press Summer Fest 2012 – a test of strength

Photo c/o the Horn's Grant Schaefer
"It's a novelty festival," my friend and fellow journalist Caitlin DeWeese said to me as we were standing in the middle of the pavement near Eleanor Tinsley Park. "The novelty being, it's hot as hell."
I'm not sure who decided to host Free Press Summer Fest in June, in the unforgiving heat of Houston, Texas. But every single band I saw perform mentioned the sweltering warmth, and every fan could certainly feel it. It makes Free Press Summer Fest a bit of a trial — are you fan enough to space out your water drinking and your sunscreen-applying to stick it out and rock out front row at your favorite show? You have to pace yourself, but if you can figure out how to do it, Free Press will reward you. At two days, it's the perfect length for the adventure that it is. This year, I was sometimes triumphant, sometimes defeated by the heat, but I still managed to catch some unforgettable performances.Read More...

Houston's Free Press Summer Fest is this weekend, and as usual, they have gathered an impressive and eclectic lineup to perform in the Texas heat at Eleanor Tinsley Park. There is so much packed into two days, it can be overwhelming. Never fear! We are here to give your our recommendations for who to see this weekend. So read on to get a short blurb about the artists we think are worth your time, as well as a song that will give you an idea of the artist's sound.Read More...
SXSW 2012 – Bands to See

It always creeps up on me. One minute, my friends and I are lamenting the fact that South by Southwest is over, and we have to wait a whole year before we do it all again. The very next, it"s time for a constant barrage of music, libations, and general merriment. And so, here we are again, poised on the edge of greatness (or a great catastrophe, depending on how organized you are). What"s that, you say? You don"t even know who is playing this year? Worry not, o yon procrastinator! That"s what I"m here for. I"ve scoured the SXSW lineup this year and have come up with the below suggestions of bands you really can"t miss. Per our usual format, you"ll find below the name of an incredible band, a brief description of what they"re like, a video of a song that encapsulates what they"re about, and the venues & showtimes where you can actually find them. Some are new to me, some are old favorites. Either way — buckle up. It"s going to be a bumpy ride.Read More...
Fun Fun Fun Fest 2011 – Day 1

Fun Fun Fun Fest 2011 was a weekend of rollercoaster emotions and perceptions. That sounds like the introduction to some terrible cliche teen drama, but it is what I lived through this weekend. Blame it on cloudy perception from a lingering cold (which I'm still not over — damn you, festival dirt!) and imminent exhaustion coupled with various Nyquils and Sudafeds, or blame it on being 24 and trying to navigate my adoration of music, my desire to make it myself, and my sense of responsibility to my day job. Whatever it is, my brain was all over the place, taking in the new setting of the Auditorium Shores skyline, comparing and contrasting new Fun Fun Fun with old, trying to experience new music while staying true to my favorites, and realizing I'm starting to enjoy being with my friends more than being alone at a set only I want to see. It's all a balancing act, and it all gave me a lot to digest after a weekend of awesome music, dusty nostrils and strange music fan realizations.

Fun Fun Fun Fest crept up on me so quickly this year that I haven't had time to scour the lineup the way I normally do. Thus, I have decided to highlight my favorites below that I already know and love – and apparently, they're all mostly playing the Orange Stage. But my absolute favorite aspect of Fun Fun Fun Fest is the fact that I discover so much new music to love. It's like being a college DJ all over again. I intend to hit up my top picks, but I also plan on wandering wherever my ears take me. So ultimately, that is my suggestion. Be brave, go to a stage you didn't think you'd visit, keep an open mind, get dirty and have a blast.

"Sports Concussions: Facts, Fallacies and New Frontiers" is a seminar that invites coaches, athletic directors, school nurses administrators and counselors to learn about the realities of head injuries in youth athletics. The seminar is being held at the Gladstone Community Center, 6901 N. Holmes St., from 8:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on January 22. The seminar is free, but one must register ahead of time. Registration can be done online at www.biamo.org under the Events heading (Hellman 5).
The topic of head injuries and concussions has been in the news recently because the family of Kansas City Chief Javon Belcher, who killed his girlfriend and then himself in December of 2012, had his body exhumed last month to have his brain examined to find out if head injuries caused his fatal behavior. Now, the Brain Injury Association of Missouri feels that the topic needs more attention, especially regarding youth in sports (Hellman 5).
This session will include: "An overview of sports-related concussions, a review of concussion management in relation to the roles of 'team units', a discussion of Missouri's concussion law, resources available and personal experiences of athletes" (Hellman 5).
This seminar is based on a new booklet titled, "Concussion Management: The Team Plan", by Joseph F Waeckerle, a doctor who is a clinical professor at the University of Missouri—Kansas City School of Medicine and editor emeritus of the Journal Annals of Emergency Medicine. One of the fallacies that the booklet and the seminar dispels that an athlete has to lose consciousness in order to be considered for having a concussion or other traumatic brain injury.
Waeckerle also explains that an athlete does not have to suffer a 'hard' injury in order to sustain a concussion and that there is no one medical test that can diagnose a concussion. Instead, athletes must undergo a variety of tests regarding brain function and balance in a doctor's office, not on a sideline (Hellman 5).
Ultimately, caring for athletes who may have sustained brain injuries is now a law in Missouri. In 2011, Missouri lawmakers passed the Missouri State Interscholastic Youth Sports Brain Injury Prevention Act. This seminar will go a long way in educating those who work with teens regarding concussions and brain injuries.
Hellman, Rick. "Seminar Next Week to Focus on Youth and Concussions." The Kansas City Star. January 15, 2014: Section 816 Local; Pg. 5.

Anthemic alt-rockers Coldplay hit town in support of their sixth studio effort, Ghost Stories. The Londoners have shirked their usual stadium locales this go-round in favor of smaller, more intimate venues, so this could be the perfect chance to get up close and personal with recently "consciously uncoupled" lead singer Chris Martin. Oh yeah, and hear new gems like "Oceans" and "Midnight."

You were a child
Crawling on your knees toward him
Making momma so proud
But your voice is too loud
We like to watch you laughing
Picking insects off of plants
No time to think of consequences
Control yourself
Take only what you need from him
A family of trees wanting to be haunted
Control yourself
Take only what you need from him
The water is warm
But it's sending me shivers
A baby is born
Crying out for attention
Memories fade
Like looking through a fogged mirror
Decisions too
Decisions are made
Decisions are made and not bought
But I thought this wouldn't hurt a lot
I guess not
(Chorus x6)

A devoted reviewer said they've "done all sorts of crazy things to get their hands on these" (that's what she said). We'd like some specifics... While we've never tried these Alfajor Havanna Mixtos ($32 or 12), we're pretty certain we'd do just about anything for a cookie that consists of a rich layer of dulce de leche sandwiched between two delicate biscuits and then smothered in chocolate or meringue. They sound like a less Wal-mart white trash version of a moonpie. Discuss.
These are some of the MOST delicious things on the planet! They're totally worth the 13 hour flight from New York to get your hands on some in Argentina.
Havanna alfajores are pretty much the best thing ever. Chocolate covered are hands-down the winner, but they're both good.
These are amazingly delicious and great as gifts. The gold and silver wrappers add a nice elegant touch. These are definitely a must have....and comparing them to moon pies from wal-mart? scandal!!!!

Kardashians Find Dash Store "Disgusting" in Kourtney and Kim Take Miami Preview
The Kardashian sisters had a big surprise waiting for them when they recently arrived in Florida to tape "Kourtney and Kim Take Miami" — and it wasn't the good kind.
As seen in the video below, on their first visit to their Miami Dash store "in a few months," Kourtney, Kim and Khloe find their business in disarray.
Between fire hazards, carelessly strewn clothing and trash in the dressing rooms, the girls become outraged — and threaten to fire their employees and close up the shop.
"This is our store with our name on it," complains Khloe. "It's like disgusting right now."
"Kourtney and Kim Take Miami" premieres on E! in January.

I understand that there may be a difference in meaning or intent between the two, but are there any behavioral or performance differences between a clustered primary key and a clustered unique index?
Sign up
- Anybody can ask a question

One main difference is that the unique index can have a NULL value that is not allowed in the primary key. Clustered or not, this is the main difference between the practical implementation of a Primary Key versus a Unique Key.
Oh, and the fact that a table can have one PK and many UK :-).
These are both differences in INTENT not in PERFORMANCE. Otherwise, I don't think there's any difference. Behind any PK or UK the SQL Server builds an index (depending on the request, clustered or not) and the way it's used is transparent for the source is coming from.
Between a clustered primary key and a unique clustered index there isn't any different other than the unique clustered index can have a NULL value.
A non-unique clustered index has a uniqueifier that has to be dealt with for non-unique values.

A letter from Health Canada
Seven months later, a response from Health Canada
Seven months later, a response from Health Canada
On Sunday October 19th, Property Matchmakers will be hosting their first annual community wide scavenger hunt in Whitby.
Every year we hold a fundraiser for Dravet Syndrome research and family assistance called Make Noise.
A Yard Sale and Fun Day will be held on Saturday September 6th in support of Fight 4 Kate
Kate's story is featured in the latest Vice documentary on the new medical marijuana regulations in Canada. (5:28 into the video)
Dravet syndrome, also known as Severe Myoclonic Epilepsy of Infancy (SMEI), is a rare and catastrophic form of intractable epilepsy that begins in infancy. Initial seizures are most often prolonged events and in the second year of life other seizure types begin to emerge.

At Namely Originals, Emily says that her mom was on the way to pick up some mulch when she spotted this crate on the side of the road. Since Mom is a big fan of Roadkill Rescue (yay!) she couldn't help but stop in the middle of the road to rescue it.
When Emily saw the crate, she knew exactly what to do with it. She thought it would look awesome as a shelf for collectibles on their kitchen wall! Emily painted and distressed the crate–which, interestingly enough, turned out to be an old ammunition crate–and added some cup hooks on the underside as a convenient place to hang keys. It's been the perfect addition to her family's kitchen.
You can learn more about this rescue at Namely Originals.

What I'm basically trying to do is allow jenkins access my android-sdk-linux folder and all the sub-directories. My boss does not want to change permissions on the folder himself. I am supposed to do it during the build process. I have seen some examples that run some commands in the execute shell during the build process. Is there some commands that can I can run in that execute shell so that jenkins can have read write and execute authority on my android-sdk-linux folder ?
Thank you

Already dubbed the Nexus 10 2, rumors and speculation about the release date of the 2nd generation device continue to swirl. When the first generation Nexus 10 tablet was reported as sold out of Google Play weeks ago, anticipation of the arrival of the Nexus 10 2 continues. After release date rumors slated the device for Black Friday 2013 and later CES 2014, the Nexus 10 2 is still a no-show. It remains unclear whether Google is delaying or cancelling the Nexus 10 2 release.
According to IBTimes (Feb. 3), the first generation 32GB version of the Nexus 10 made a brief reappearance in the Google Play Store. The popular Android tablet appears to have sold out again, sparking further curiosity about the whereabouts of the Nexus 10 2.
To date, Google has neither confirmed or denied the 2nd generation Nexus 10 tablet's existence and new reports suggest that the entire Nexus line will be discontinued. According to tech industry analyst Edgar Murtazin, Google plans to replace the Nexus series with its Play Edition line. "Nexus line by Google is over in 2015 ;) Yes - this line will be replaced by Play Edition," Murtazin tweeted.
If this turns out to be true, it doesn't completely rule out the possibility of seeing another Nexus device or two from Google in 2014. An image posted by known Twitter tipster @evleaks late last year indicates that an ASUS manufactured Nexus 10-inch tablet was in the works.
Rumored specs of the Nexus 10 2 include a display resolution of 2560 x 1600, pixel density of 300ppi, an 8MP rear camera, a 2.1MP front camera and 32GB of internal storage. Qualcomm's quad-core Snapdragon 800 CPU, an Adreno 330 GPU and 3GB of RAM, Android KitKat 4.4 are expected, all powered by a 9000 mAh battery.
Seeking to move forward with technology innovation, the search engine giant just signed a 10-year patent cross- licensing deal with Samsung. Google also recently announced that it's selling Motorola Mobility to Lenovo reveals intentions of focusing on Android development. Prospective buyers of the 2nd generation Nexus 10 tablet will have to be patient, as Google has much on its plate at the moment.

About Jazz.com's Music Reviews
For more than a year, a team of twenty-three critics has been working under my direction on an ambitious project to review the most important performances from the century long history of jazz music. But with an interesting twist: while many reviews of jazz CDs have been written over the years, we wanted to focus on individual tracks.
This is a Herculean task, and before we are finished, we will need to tackle more than ten thousand reviews. But such a project is necessary to fill a gap in the jazz world. For a variety of reasons, jazz fans need – and deserve – a more focused source of music criticism than is provided by the standard CD review.
The advantages of reviewing individual tracks are many. By focusing on songs instead of CDs, a reviewer can give readers much clearer guidance. The critic no longer needs to fret over how to assess a CD that might have one or two strong tracks mixed in with weaker material. And an emphasis on individual songs frees us from the confusion wrought by fickle record label execs, who constantly re-package the same material in different compilations, ensuring that the CD recommended one year is out of print the next. But above all, the rapid rise of i-Pods and legal sources of downloading suggests that the future of music will be driven by the track not the disk, and reviewers need to adapt to this brave new world of electronic commerce.
Traditionalists should not fret about this change. In many ways, we are merely returning to the way the music world previously operated, when the industry focused on selling "singles," the A-side of a 78 or 45 rpm record. But even before the rise of recorded sound, music was composed, performed and consumed one piece at a time. Modern technology is simply returning us to this natural state of affairs.
Another difference in jazz.com reviews is a move away from the 1-5 star rating system that has often been employed to evaluate recordings. In practice, few records received one or two stars, and even fewer were awarded five star reviews. As a result, most records were lumped together into a three or four star category that made it difficult for fans – or critics – to make more nuanced evaluations. At jazz.com we have adopted a 100 point scale, which allows much clearer and more subtle distinctions. (A guide to this 100 point system can be found here.)
But the value of any system of reviews depends, in the final analysis, on the critical judgments of the people making the evaluations. I have worked hard to build a team of smart, knowledgeable reviewers. I have tracked down specialists with deep expertise in specific areas of the jazz tradition, and given them a forum to share their know how. We have not made any attempt to "dumb down" our reviews, or squeeze them into some generic mass market formula. Sometimes they are provocative, or perhaps even go against the grain of received opinion, but they will always be interesting and passionate. The end result is a unique resource for jazz fans. And (unlike most sources of reviews) we allow the reader to add comments and contrary opinions.
I say "end result," but in fact we still have much to do. We continue to expand our team of jazz critics, and we have an aggressive plan to publish a significant number of new reviews every month.
In the meantime, take a test drive. See what we have to say about some of your favorite jazz artists by using our music review search engine in the left sidebar on this page. And check back again on a regular basis to see what new additions we have made.
Finally, if you have deep expertise in jazz music and strong writing skills, you can inquire about joining us in our grand reviewing project by sending an email to email@example.com.

Griffin in Hunt at Shoal Creek
Sept. 22, 2008
LUBBOCK, Texas - Will Griffin bounced back from an opening-round 74 with a 4-under 68 in the second to jump from 14th to 2nd place after two rounds of the Shoal Creek Intercollegiate in Birmingham, Ala., Monday. The Texas Tech junior was co-medalist at the event last season, leading Texas Tech to the team title.
The Red Raiders got off to a rough start in the quest to defend their title, carding a disappointing 306 in the opening round, placing 10th in the 12-team field. Behind the play of Griffin and senior Garrett Merrell, Tech rose four places in the standings to a sixth-place tie with a 2-over 288, but trail tournament-leader Baylor by 15 strokes. Merrell, tied in 12th place, fired a 2-under 70 in the second round, after opening the day with a 77.
Santiago Rivas carded rounds of 75-76 and is tied in 25th place, while Sergio Franky (80-76) and Chris Ward (80-79) are tied in 49th and 56th place, respectively. UAB's Zack Sucher leads the tournament by one stroke over Griffin, whose 68 was the low round on the first day of the tournament.
Baylor leads the field at 5-over 581, while second-ranked LSU (+13) and No. 20 Mississippi (+16) are second and third. No. 24 UAB (+19) and Tulsa (+19) are tied in fourth place, while the No. 19 Red Raiders (+20), East Tennessee State (+20) and North Florida (+20) are a shot back in a sixth-place tie. No. 25 Auburn (+26) fell five spots to a tie for ninth with Georgia Southern (+26). No. 21 Wake Forest (+28) and Oklahoma (+41) are 11th and 12th.
Tuesday's third and final round gets underway at 8 a.m. CT. Live scoring will be available throughout the round at www.golfstat.com.

What does this Fourth of July Pitcher and Tumbler Set ($58) by The Get Up Vintage remind you of? Bomb pops, right?! Or was it just us who begged and begged our parents to give us a few dollars for the Ice Cream Truck (that always seemed to come around the neighborhood 5 minutes before dinnertime causing our parents to squash our dreams of sucking on yummy popsicles until we got a stomach ache)? Now we're adults and we can buy bomb pops whenever we please. We can also host our own 4th of July parties and serve bomb pop cocktails in this awesomely patriotic pitcher set! Yum!

I'm trying to solve it for two hours already. I know it somehow related to the pumping lemma
Let $M_1 = \langle Q_1,S,f_1,s_1,F_1\rangle$ and $M_2 = \langle Q_2,S,f_2,s_2,F_2\rangle$ be two machines, where $|Q_1|=m$ and $|Q_2|=n$.
Then $T(M_1) \not= T(M_2)$ iff there exists $x$ where $|x| < m*n$ such that $x$ is accepted only by one of the machines.

'Blue Jasmine' Star Cate Blanchett on Working With Woody Allen
The Oscar-winning actress shares how she picks her roles and what it was like working with Woody Allen. "That's the blessing of working with someone like Woody: 97 percent of his direction is in the script," she says. "You know the script is not going to change so the architecture of it, you can trust."

To be honest, the deck was always stacked against Jordan Schroeder.
He always had just a slim chance of making the team in training camp, which officially ended Friday when Schroeder was the Canucks final cut.
In a preseason without exhibition games, all Schroeder had were some scrimmages and a few practices to beat out Andrew Ebbett to fill the centre hole left behind by Ryan Kesler.
Schroeder also didn't have to clear waivers, and Ebbett did.
The Canucks could have kept Schroeder as an extra forward but as Alain Vigneault pointed out this week, young players need to play.
So, instead, the Canucks will carry nine defencemen, among them Jim Vandermeer, who was signed to a two-way contract earlier this month.
Schroeder impressed in a couple of scrimmage, especially on Thursday when he set Mason Raymond up twice with some eye-catching saucer passes.
The team just couldn't put a lot of stock into it. Maybe if Schroeder had a more impressive season with the Chicago Wolves things would have been different.
The Canucks also re-assigned Darren Archibald, Anton Rodin, Bill Sweatt, Andrew Gordon, Peter Andersson and Derek Joslin. Goalie Joe Cannata was the eighth player returned to Chicago.

Precious metals and metal alloys are important heterogeneous catalysts for renewable energies and materials. However, both of them have their limitations. Precious metals have low natural abundance and are expensive. Metal alloys have unstable surfaces due to surface segregation under reaction conditions, which renders the identification of active sites and the understanding of reaction mechanisms difficult. My research group will address these limitations by developing new intermetallic NP catalysts. Intermetallic compounds, which consist of two or more metallic elements, adopt specific crystal structures as well as electronic structures different from the constituent elements. The modified electronic structures of intermetallic compounds make them unique catalytic materials. It has been proposed that such compounds should be treated as new "elements†considering their potential in catalysis. The inherent properties of intermetallic compounds, stable and exhibit a large variety of structures will help us to discover catalysts with stable surfaces, consisting of more abundant metals, to replace unstable alloy and precious metal catalysts.

The wait for NYC's first real deep-dish pizza at Emmett's in SoHo is as long as the crust is tall. If you arrive right at 5:30 p.m. when it opens, the friendly bartender will casually mention you to a server, who will casually push together some of the eight or ten tables for two to accommodate your group. But if you arrive any time after that, the bar is buzzing, there's nowhere to wait, your name goes on a list that grows by the minute, and there's not a chance you're sitting down any time within the hour. It's partly because this place is tiny (you'd never find a restaurant this small in the part of the country where its pizza comes from), partly because the bready pies take 45 minutes to bake, and partly because the early word on Emmett's is that NYC has never seen anything like it.
Growing up in the Midwest, my favourite pizza was my mom's, which was so thick-crusted that the center dough wouldn't be cooked all of the way through and my little sister and I would worry that it'd continue to expand in our stomachs. When I got to college in Ohio, the best pizza was a spicy-sauced square pie that billed itself as "New York style", and I didn't know any better to know that it was a lie. When I moved to NYC nearly a decade ago, I searched high and low for the deep-dish pizza I loved, and all I found was Pizzeria Uno, the national chain I didn't even visit when I lived in Midwest. I don't know if no one thought there was a market for deep-dish pies in NYC, where people are so serious about their foldable, brick oven crusts and barely-there sauces, but if the wait at Emmett's is any indication, ex-Midwesterners have been craving a taste of home, and everyone else is curious about the novelty.
When it's delivered to your table, your server will tell you to let it rest for a couple of minutes (we didn't get the egg timer I'd read about in other reviews), and then he'll come back to dish out a slice to everyone. The thick, thick layer of cheese on my slice pulled away from the rest of the pie in gooey strings like every pizza ad you've ever seen. The pepperoni was fat and irregularly-shaped, as if someone was slicing it fresh in the back, and the balls of sausage were heavy with fennel. The outer crust was so crusty we needed steak knives to saw through it, while the bottom crust was still buttery. And the sauce–so spicy, and so much of it there was still plenty on the plate to scoop up with the outer crust, which made me forget my urge to eat pizza backward so the best part's left at the end.
My friends, who went into Emmett's talking about how deep-dish pizza is "wrong", came out saying this was the best deep-dish they'd had. When I asked our server how he felt serving this "blasphemous" pizza, he said he secretly misses it when he's away from the restaurant for a few days. But based on the reactions New Yorkers are having, I don't think he'll have to stay quiet much longer.

College Hockey:Hillary Knight's four point effort leads Wisconsin past Mercyhurst
Brooke Ammerman scores two goals, assist
ST. CLOUD, Minn. — In a battle of two top teams playing without key components because of national team commitments, the Wisconsin Badgers did a slightly better job of compensating for the absences in a 7-4 win over the Mercyhurst Lakers in the Easton Holiday Showcase.
One plus that the Badgers (18-2-0, 12-2-0 WCHA) enjoyed was having their top line of Hilary Knight, Brianna Decker, and Meghan Duggan intact. The trio combined for four goals, led by Knight's two goals and two assists.
"They're very good, and all the credit goes to all three of them," Wisconsin coach Mark Johnson said. "Certainly I've had Meghan and Hillary longer than I've had Brianna, but each one of them at some point in their careers made that commitment that they wanted to go to the next level. They're a lot of fun to have on our team and certainly a lot of fun for people to watch."
Those associated with Mercyhurst (14-4-0, 5-0-0 CHA) may not have enjoyed the view quite as much.
In a game with eleven goals, the two scored by Knight were arguably the two biggest. When the Lakers looked poised to carry a 1-0 lead into the first intermission, Knight fired a routine looking shot from the slot that goalie Hillary Pattenden slowed, but the puck slid through her and trickled over the line to tie the score at 19:29. It would prove to be the only Mercyhurst lead of the day.
Later, when the third period was half gone and the teams were knotted at 3-3, the Badgers took advantage of a quick-developing three-on-one. Duggan held the puck as Decker broke to the net, and then she slid it over to Knight, who buried her shot for a lasting 4-3 lead.
"Playing with Meghan and Brianna, it's kind of like a no-look game," Knight said. "You already know where they're going to be, and they are great players. It's awesome to feed off of their energy."
When it wasn't the Badger first line doing damage, it was Brooke Ammerman. She had two goals and an assist in the contest, including one just 32 seconds after Knight had put the Badgers on top. Though that would prove to be the game-winning goal, her unassisted tally early in the second period was more worthy of a highlight reel.
"The defenseman fed the puck behind the net, and I was just there," Ammerman said. "I walked out looking for a pass to my sister and Geena Prough cutting to the net, and the goalie just dropped, I didn't even fake a shot. So I just held it, I knew I had time, and just slid it in when I knew I could get it into a wide-open net."
Duggan followed with a bad-angle snipe over Pattenden's shoulder, Wisconsin had a 3-1 lead and looked to be in charge. But the Lakers responded with goals by Meghan Corbett and Christie Cicero two minutes apart, leading to a rare stretch of over 22 minutes without a goal in the slugfest before Wisconsin pulled away.
"We lost Jess Jones, who is a big part of our team and special teams midway through the game, and that hurt us a bit," Mercyhurst coach Mike Sisti said.
Jones scored the game's first goal, taking a pass from Meghan Agosta to send her in alone and snapping a shot by Alex Rigsby's blocker. Jones was assisted from the ice favoring her leg, and the Lakers were forced to shuffle their top line.
The teams were already missing players due to the MLP Cup — forwards Bailey Bram and Vicki Bendus for Mercyhurst, and Badger forwards Mallory Deluce and Carolyne Prévost, plus defensemen Brittany Haverstock and Stefanie McKeough.
"Until both sides of the border change some of the events they do, we're going to still live in that world," Johnson said. "The hard part is that teams don't have their best players, or some of their best players at given times, and it effects people nationally. We didn't have a practice for three weeks. I pick my players up on Friday, and here we come."
It was left to those players still available on each roster to decide a game that could have implications on seedings at NCAA tournament selection time.
"The team fought hard," Sisti said. "We made some mistakes and paid for them, which you often do against good teams."
"I think it's just a good measuring stick; it threw a lot of things at both teams. Both teams got to see some strengths and weaknesses. You use the games to get you better."
The Lakers hope they improve enough to make it to their third straight Frozen Four, this year taking place in Erie, Pa.
"The city and the organizers are doing a fabulous job," Sisti said. "The people at Mercyhurst and the area are really proud to host that. It's going to be a great event."
For both teams, there's a lot of hockey between now and the postseason in March. The Lakers host Syracuse next weekend, while the Badgers head to Columbus to take on the Buckeyes.
"It's easy this week because we don't have any school," Knight said. "We can go out there and play hockey. Keep on going, keep on grinding, because this is the thick of the season right here. So stay healthy, and have fun."

Digital Photography
/ Why Photography?
· 2010/07/10 - 13:16
For those here who would name photography as a hobby (I guess that's probably most of us), I was wondering why have an interest in taking pictures over and above other pass times? After all, it's not without it's frustrations is it. So what's in it for you?
As for me, I'd say the three biggest pros over my other interests are: An opportunity to be creative; it can be done in as long or short a time as I like; it gets me out of the house, but can also be done indoors.
· 2010/07/10 - 14:13
I'm not sure I can pin down a reason. I got my first camera when i was 6 and spent an entire summer chasing neighborhood cats trying to get that one "wild" shot. Since I was determined to photograph for Nat Geo, my cat was a fine specimen to practice on. These days my camera lives with me, always. Because sometimes, you can't describe just how cool the storm was, or you kids first soccer goal. Above and beyond I take pictures because I enjoy it, it's relaxing, and I never forget what I did that day.
· 2010/07/10 - 14:54
I've a sentence on my profile that is everything photography is to me :
"Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever... it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything."
Besides, photography makes me forget about everything around! I love the little things on the photography, the colors, the detail, the image, and the sensation it gives.
for now I'm an amateur , and my aim is not to be a professional. I'm fine like I'm, but I want to improve, and sooner or later I'll.
I like photography, I like to see the world thru the lens of everyone, and I love to enjoy the beauty.
For some people photography is a hobby, but in each picture I've a moment, something to remind of, or something to learn about.
· 2010/07/10 - 20:01
"Photography is the art of paying attention."
For me its a way to express my creativity. My current career doesnt really allow for as much of that as I'd like, photography is my outlet.
· 2010/07/10 - 21:26
From a purely practical viewpoint, photography helps me remember events, people, family, vacation; from a creative standpoint, it challenges me to learn more of equipment, lighting, composition, and processing; and from the "live life to the fullest" viewpoint, it causes me to notice and see things that otherwise might have gone unnoticed.
· 2010/07/12 - 16:02
@jan03 At last ,"Full many a truth is told in jest"
· 2010/07/12 - 20:54
Why photography? Some of my contemplations....
- Creativity: Sky is the limit....so much one can do in shooting and editing to make an original and unique creation!
- Out and about: Like Jon, it gets me out of the house and gives me an opportunity to experience the big, wide world.
- Increased awareness: I've become more cognizant of the details and interests in my surroundings, especially subtle beauty that had gone unnoticed before!
- Gifts: Photograph family members and friends and give them the pictures digitally or framed as presents. Usually much appreciated because it's such a personal gift!
- Relationships: I've met so many wonderful and interesting people both in person and online through this hobby, not to mention it's a great conversation starter when I'm out with my camera.
- Feeds the brain: So much to learn about all the aspects of photography, a few being cameras and settings, lenses, accessories, software, editing, etc.
- Memories captured: Times spent with family and friends, attending functions and concerts, everyday activities and just out shooting by myself....all captured to look back at and remember.
- Accessibility: This is a hobby one can indulge in any time of the day or night, any season of the year, no limits.
- Documentation: I look at pictures of my grandmother as a beautiful teenage young woman...they are priceless to me and they provide a sense of history and a record of the times in which she lived.

True story: I bought a bicycle and would leave it securely chained, minus the front wheel and saddle in front of my house in Athens. I awoke one day to find it stolen (presumably by someone with a chain-cutter, a very sore arse and no brains). I bought my first DSLR that day.
There are books with titles along the lines of "decisive instant" and "the moment it clicks", but the instant gratification afforded by digital got to me. Then came all the knobs, buttons, tweaking and fiddling, closely followed by the fact that it's easy to take a mediocre picture and extraordinarily difficult to take a great one. In short, it appealed to the control-freak in me with the added bonus of being beautiful.
Something else not mentioned yet here: unlike free-fall diving, car-racing, juggling with swords, rollerball, etc., photography is something you can do whilst doing something else. Meet friends or go for a walk and you can take your camera with you.
· 2010/07/13 - 08:20
@revenant · All great points! and to the rest of you who mentioned becoming more cognizant of the little details in life; you are spot on! Its like the one photo I took of the diseased leaf, I had walked past that tree with those ugly leaves on it for weeks and didnt think anything of it. One day I just started shooting them, I mean part of photography is trying to capture something different, or trying to make someone see something ordinary in a new way. In doing so, I believe it has helped me to see everything in life as a moment that should not go un-captured.

for me, taking pictures is a necessity. i can't live without a camera. when i am in situations of my life, no matter what, i have the strong urge to depict them. in these information overloaded times, my brain isn't able anymore to keep all the important things inside that i have encountered. so, i "archive" them, somehow deficiently, in pictures. sometimes, the result is an entirely new memory, has a total different effect on me than the moment i took it from. but that's ok, it still is related, and i wish i had pictures of about so many moments in my life when i wasn't able to hold a camera. creativity? i have no idea what that is. realism? none of my business. i think it's just a necessity to reflect.

The blame for empty seats at the Sochi Winter Games this week may leave Olympics security at fault, a spokesperson has revealed recently. Although organizers have confirmed that 92 percent of the highly coveted seats were sold the very first day of the major competition, a large number of vacant seats left the public outraged at the apparent lack of available tickets. NewsOxy shares this Monday, Feb. 10, 2014, that intense security might have led to long lines that prevented a vast number of crowds from actually making it to part of the big event.
Initially, the blame for empty seats was targeted toward Sochi officials or even spectators arriving late on the first day of the medal-achieving competition. Although a considerable number of spectators were present, there were quite a few empty banks evident as well. Yet Alexandra Kosterina, the Sochi organizing committee's spokeswoman, affirmed that 92 percent of the tickets were sold for Saturday.
"Dear spectators! Additional Ticket Box Offices are opened for your convenience. Please familiarize yourself with the list of Main Ticket Centers and Ticket Box Offices addresses. The Adler MTC will not sell tickets on the 10th of February. The only service available at this location will be the collection of tickets," a notice said on the Sochi Winter Olympics website.
Kosterina added that the Olympics officials saw "pretty full stadiums … and had a good turnout" but that extensive security details might be at fault for the lack of everyone getting to the event on time.
"We saw pretty full stadiums. We had a good turnout and hope it will get even better as the Olympics go on," a spokeswoman for the organizing committee, Alexandra Kosterina, said to EuroNews.
Literally thousands of prospective watchers — those that had made up the 92 percent of ticket purchasers — arrived to the competition late, or didn't even make it to the event at all. Soon afterwards, a public blame for empty seats began before an official explanation was provided.
"People need to understand what time to travel and you need to come in advance," she said.
A total of 40,000 individuals had bought tickets for Saturday's athletic events. It seems that another potential fault for the high number of empty seats may have not only been tight security, but the Russian "mentality" of showing up to an event right on time instead of very early in advance. It was concluded by the spokeswoman that a total of 81 percent of seats were filled in stadiums for attendance this Saturday at the Olympics.
