Hebrew Names of God Series
Thursday, May 02, 2013
Welcome back to Symphony of Prayer Newsletters. Last lesson we began a new study series with looking at the Hebrew Names of God, our first name was entitled, Adonai, the Lord my Great God.
Devotional: This lesson we look at the 2nd name of the series entitled, Elhoim, the All Powerful One.
Elhoim: God is the all powerful Creator of the Universe. Genesis 1:1-3; 4-31
God knows all, Deuteronomy 10:17
Creates all and is everywhere at all times. Psalm 68, Mark 13:19.
Pronounced: el-o-HEEM. The name is usually associated with God in relation to His Creation.
Some people use the plural form of the name �Elhoim� as proof for the
Trinity. Genesis 1:26. �Man Created in Our Image�.
The very nature of God, the all powerful One is revealed in Creation, Genesis 1:1-3. 1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was[a] on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. 3 Then God said, �Let there be light�; and there was light.
Is this your desire to know Elhoim? The One who spoke galaxies into existence with His Word, the all powerful One who created Man in His own image?
Beginning: God is the creator of all things. God is the Beginning, the Cause and the Source of all that there is.
Created: The sovereign power of God something new was brought into being.
Heavens and the Earth: God created the Heavens and the Earth, above, around and below, He spoke His Word and all was created and brought into existence.
Earth without Form: by the sovereign originative power of God something new was brought into being.
Light, Evening & Morning, Dry Land, Sun Moon and Stars, Living Creatures in the Waters, Animals: Designed to provide another visible demonstration of the Creator�s power.
Man Created: According to Genesis 1:26, God calls on the Members of the Trinity to centre all attention on this event, when �Man� was created. Man was distinctly different than the animals already created. He stood on a much higher plateau, for God created him to be immortal, and made him a special image of His own eternity.
Man was a creature God could visit, communicate and have fellowship with. Man was to be responsible to and answer to God; he was also given the privilege of choice, even to the point of disobeying. God desired for man to be a responsible representative and steward on the earth, to work out God�s Will and fulfill His purpose.
Is this your desire to fulfill the all powerful One�s Will?
To recap, we studied the second Hebrew Name of God, Elhoim, �All Powerful One�. We discovered that the �All Powerful One� knows all and created all.
God is everywhere at all times.
We learned that some people use the plural form of the name �Elhoim� as proof for the Trinity. Genesis 1:26. �Man Created in Our Image�.
The very nature of God, the all powerful One is revealed in Creation, Genesis 1:1-3.
The sovereign power of God brought something new into being.
God made everything, He desires for Man to have fellowship, communion with Him and fulfill His purpose and will here on earth. God has a plan and a purpose for all man who dwells on the face of the earth. Is it your desire to fulfill �Elhoim�s Will�, the All Powerful One who has a plan for your life?

Just think I used to be an atheist and my stumbling block was evolution. What a lie that is. Praise God for His sovereign will!

We love Halloween and what better way to celebrate than to immerse ourselves in all things spooky, chilling and supernatural – we cannot wait to get started! We hope you will join us for a month of fun and fright… but of course, only if you dare… mwahahahaaa ;D
This week was a little better for reading. I've made good headway with FULL BLOODED by Amanda Carlson and I'm really enjoying it. I also started reading HOT & HAUNTED an Anthology of three short stories by Megan Hart, Saranna DeWylde and Lauren Hawkeye. I've read two out of three so far. The first was by Megan Hart called NOTHING ELSE MATTERS and I loved it. I love her writing style, the world she's built and the characters. The second one I read was PICK ME UP by Lauren Hawkeye. This had an interesting premise and I enjoyed it to a point, but it was very sexual with a lot of words that make me squirm LOL. More about both in my review coming soon.
Next on my list to read is MIND OVER MONSTERS by Jennifer Harlow. The review of this one will be posted during our All Hallows Eve event in October.
I have to confess chapters in I decided that BLOOD THERAPY by Lynda Kilburn wasn't for me and I decided it was time to move on to something new. So in preparation for October ALL HALLOWS EVE event, it's time to get my teeth into some Horror..eek! So my first book is THE WITCHES by Peter Curtis. Peter Curtis is actually a pseudonym for Norah Lofts and the book is set in 1959, so it is a classic novel. But I have to say it's really, really creepy. The tension is being crafted slowly and carefully and so subtly it's almost giving me goosebumps.
On the audiobook side I have started listening to ANGELS' BLOOD by Nalini Singh, partly because Carolyn is such a big fan of Nalini Singh and I read SLAVE TO SENSATION on holiday this year and really enjoyed it. So I decided to give her Guild Hunter series a whirl
This weekend I have AVENGER'S ASSEMBLE ready to watch on DVD. I wanted to see it at the cinema but didn't get around to it. So I'm rather excited about it, especially after reading Gemma's super review earlier in the year! I do love Whedon, oh and Chris Hemsworth probably won't hinder my enjoyment either! 😉
I am really struggling to read this week, my head feels hollow and my brain is definitely missing. I have only managed to finish one book this week EEK! It was a big scary book though, ONE BLOOD by Qwantu Amaru.
I have been very good on my book buying ban as this week, I have added two more NetGallery titles, SPLITERED by A.G. Howard and CHASERS by James Phelan. I've also downloaded one freebie Kindle title from Amazon, GUARDIAN OF FATE by L.J. Kentowski.
Next week will see me finally finish A BOOK OF HORRORS by Stephen Jones and hopefully learn to sleep with my light off 😉
This week I started to read HEART SHAPED BOX by Joe Hill. So far I'm no enjoying it very much. It doesn't seem to be grabbing me as THE STRAIN did. I've put it aside for now and hope to pick it back up a bit later. Instead, I began to read one of the e-book prequels to Jocelynn Drake's upcoming new series, The Asylum Tales. It's called BRONX. Only 18% of the way through the book, but it seems pretty promising. I also have the second e-book prequel called TRIXIE.
After I've finished BRONX, I am planning to start reading CURE by Belinda S Frish. Then I hope to read ZOMBIE GAMES by Kristen Middleton and ZOMBIE BATTLE: THE OUTBREAK by Jacqueline Druga.
My Book buying ban has been really good this week, but I did download a few ARC's this week. I downloaded SEDUCED BY A PIRATE by Eloisa James, GILDED by Karina Cooper, an anthology called THE LADY MOST WILLING and SKIES OF STEEL by Zoe Archer.
This week was a bit slow on the reading front for me although I did get a few in. I read two of the books I am going to read for our All Hallows Eve 2012 event, including THE DONORS by Jeffrey Wilson and re-read DEAD MANN WALKING by Stefan Petrucha. I love the Hessius Mann series by Petrucha and was really excited to get an early copy of DEAD MANN RUNNING, which I will also be reviewing. Lucky me!
Other than that I still haven't finished ROOK or even started HONOR OF ASHES… hopefully next week (she says again).
Things have been rather manic with me for the past few weeks. I have started back to work, had the kids back to school, and have had training upon training upon training! Which hasn't left me with an awful lot of room for reading Add to that the book I was working on was just ok really hasn't helped to increase my reading pace, so I have only managed to read one book over the past few weeks. MARK OF THE WITCH by Maggie Shayne was something I had rather been looking forward to reading. It was an ok sort of book, but rather meandered along. I enjoyed the characters, and the chemistry but there was something… not sure what yet… that just stopped me from getting completely drawn in to the story. Perhaps when I have stopped and thought about it thoroughly for my review it will all become clearer!
I am currently reading THE PERFECT PLAY by Jaci Burton, which has been recommended to me by Gemma, and I have to say that so far I am LOVING it!! It almost made me late for work this morning! Oops!

College Hockey:Badgers Defeat Bulldogs in Penalty-Filled Affair
DULUTH, Minn. — Wisconsin carried the momentum of a second period fight to defeat Minnesota-Duluth 5-1, in a WCHA contest Friday night.
Duluth native Andy Wheeler scored the game winner just before the first period buzzer, and Scott Kabotoff stopped 43 Bulldog shots to pace the Badger victory. In the middle of it all were 104 minutes in penalties dished out to the two teams; highlighted by a rare college hockey brawl between UMD's Steve Rodberg and Wisconsin's Erik Jensen.
The battle ensued just after a faceoff in the neutral zone as the Badgers led 2-1. The combatants dropped sticks, gloves and helmets and squared-off like two heavyweight prize fighters. What followed was about 30 seconds of furiously flying fists and a frenzied crowd.
Kabotoff said it seemed to invigorate his team: "It always does whether it's supposed to be there or not. I haven't seen a fight like that since I was in juniors, it was kinda fun."
Although it didn't appear to lift his team, UMD (4-4-1, 0-4-1 WCHA) head coach Scott Sandelin agreed it was fun: "I think it was great. I don't think there's anything wrong with it, it was good entertainment."
Wisconsin (4-3, 2-1) head coach Jeff Sauer didn't share his counterpart's enthusiasm.
"You never like to see a fighting situation," said the veteran Badgers coach.
Both Rodberg and Jensen were ejected from the game and are disqualified from participating in Saturday night's rematch between the two teams.
The Badgers responded with three goals in the third period to cap the win, although the game's most impressive tally has to go to Wheeler.
With his team shorthanded, the Badger captain took a pass from Dave Hergert in the neutral zone, darted up the right wing boards, faked two shots that took out a Bulldog defender and goaltender Rob Anderson, before wristing the puck in the back of the net with just 0.9 left to play in the period.
"That was a big lift for us," said Sauer.
"Anytime, in the last minute, you get a goal for or against you, it gives a team a big let-down or a big momentum swing. For us it was a big momentum swing."
The goal also allowed Wheeler to prove himself in front of a crowd that was hostile towards him every time he was on the ice.
"I love that stuff. I like it when people don't like me, I eat that stuff up," said Wheeler.
Sandelin gave credit to Wheeler, but believes a gaffe on his team contributed to the effort.
"We made a mistake, it was a bad decision. But he [Wheeler] made a great move, don't get me wrong," Sandelin said.
The game started relatively tame. The teams skated without any penalties during the first half of the opening period, but then came the turnaround at the 10-minute mark.
That's when UMD took its first penalty. Twenty-nine seconds later, it took its second penalty, and the Badgers suddenly found themselves with a two-man advantage. However, despite five shots on Bulldog netminder Rob Anderson, and two that rang off the post, Wisconsin failed to get anything on the scoreboard during the five-on-three.
But it continued to apply pressure, and went ahead 1-0 when John Eichelberger re-directed a Brad Winchester blast from the left point past Anderson for his first goal of the year at 13:04.
UMD gave the home crowd of 4,683 at the Duluth Entertainment and Convention Center its only goal to celebrate just under two minutes later. Judd Medak put away a rebound with just seven seconds left on a power play to tie the game at one.
That was followed by a series of penalties, including roughing minors to Jensen and Rodberg that may have been the precursor to the fight in the second period. Both players shared words with each other at center ice, then appeared to be ready to drop the gloves, until referees moved in to control the situation.
Kabotoff's turn to shine came in the second period. The junior netminder stopped the middle session's first seven shots on goal, including a brilliant pad save that closed the door on a seemingly wide-open net for Medak as he broke in with Junior Lessard on a two-on-one.
"I just slid across and got it with my pad," said Kabotoff. "Makin' a save like that gives the team a little confidence and me a little confidence."
After Rodberg and Jensen's tussle, the penalties continued to mount for both teams. And UMD had a golden opportunity to get on the board again when David Hukalo and Mark Jackson were sent to the Wisconsin sin bin for separate infractions with a 1:40 to go in the second period.
"That was our chance to get back into the game and go into the third period ahead," said Sandelin.
But the Bulldogs failed to mount any considerable offensive threat during the five-on-three.
Meanwhile, Wisconsin went on to add to its lead in the third period. Rene Bourque scored his second goal of the season at 8:13 when he moved the puck forward along the left wing, despite being tangled up by a UMD defender. Bourque managed to scoot the puck ahead and tuck it in between Anderson's right leg and the goalpost.
Andy Wozniewski made it 4-1, scoring the Badgers' lone power-play tally on a slapper from the left point.
Another series of penalties followed, including a second skirmish that led to the removal of helmets. That however, only resulted in roughing double-minors and a 10-minute misconduct to Matt Doman and Medak.
UMD did apply some added pressure in the late going. While on the power play, the Bulldogs pulled Anderson in favor of a sixth attacker with 3:17 left, and managed about six shots that Kabotoff managed to deny.
Wisconsin capped its victory with an empty-net goal from Matt Hussey with 1:19 left to play.
The win was the ninth straight for the Badgers in Duluth.

Strategic Planning Model for Supplier of Unbranded Retailer Products: A Case Study of a Small Enterprise supplying Leather Goods
Ghosh Deviprrasad, General Manager Marketing
Aircel India Ltd., Kolkata, firstname.lastname@example.comfirstname.lastname@example.com
Online published on 17 February, 2012.
In the case study presented, we have discussed how a small enterprise works in the business of supplying retail leather goods. Such firms follow B2B Business Model where they supply unbranded products for retail chain or outsourced suppliers for the branded model. Such a firm can benefit if it can develop a strategic planning model to evaluate its product portfolio to maximise its profitability. If a company management is willing to evaluate all decision alternatives, the company has the opportunity to increase in profits as well as market dominance in the products it markets. It will also be able to identify and evaluate all constraints, which on improvement can lead to greater contribution to profits. This case will be best suited to the company management involved in the allocation of limited resources in smaller firms for unbranded retailer products, as the situation faced by the firm in this case is almost similar as faced by many other companies involved in retailer goods supplier. Students could get an insight as to how dynamic is the real life situation and how the management of companies would need to be alert to changing assumptions and constraints. The case is a type of decision case. This case gives the readers an insight into:
— How an unbranded goods supplier to retail chain and as an out-sourced supplier to branded goods use the Strategic Planning Model to use limited resources.
— How the Linear Programming Model can be applied to real life decision situations and how an alternative decision can be mathematically evaluated.
— Force the students to explore alternative solutions and evaluate it using various approaches as per the case.
— How a company can enhance its performance by improving upon constraints through qualitative changes.

I have read a junior mentoring topic which answered most of my doubts. However this topic gives general (though very good) advice on mentoring, while I am mainly interested in what a mentor's week looks like.
This is my case. I have a junior (1 year of experience) who got a new project and I am mentoring him. While I am sure that he will use google and will not ask me silly questions, I want to make sure he's on the right path and not to create structures which are hard to maintain or slow in execution.
Now, should I:
Check out the code each day and examine it?
- Pro: detect errors in its root
- Con: time consuming, may overlook something as there is a work day behind me as well.
When he needs to implement let's say singleton, do I tell him to find it on google and come back to me with a solution? Or I let him implement it and later review it?
- Pro: he does not wait for me to reply to him.
- Con: he may implement it wrongly and lose precious time.
Are there any situations when I can just check the result? Just like I am a QA. Or I must always stick to the code review?
At what point should I stop being a mentor? After how many projects or after how much time?
Anything else I have missed?

Gotham City Impostors
Just downloading this now. Only $15 on Steam and I think it was released yesterday. Anyone else playing this one?
It has been described as CoD style game play; with Brink style level-ups; with TF2 style classes.
How did you find it Splat?
Have just been reading the review over on RPS - far from a glowing recommendation.
However the rest of the review makes me really want to play it- i like what I heard.
free weekend on steam would see some more purchases
hmm free DLC, dedi servers, and fixes coming in a March patch
hmmm i may just bite now with a view to better fun in March....:)
Nah send em running as the server would crash and not be able to handle the load..............:(
I've also been considering it - mixed reviews are kinda putting me off though. Shame as I thought it looked really good from the first announcement about 18 months ago
okay so i bought it
Im liking it - yes it takes some patience to get in a game but I've had great luck with the gas gametype. Had heaps of rounds no problem
its kooky - a good mix of TF2 and cod
I've had a really difficult time getting a game. It starts to set you up with a group but then kicks you before trying again. I've only played a couple of rounds because the game-finder has frustrated me enormously.
I have my eye on this one, but Im going to wait a while and see what the community is like after the first patch hits in March.
Total Biscuit has a WTF up - THAT'S NO WTF IS, THAT'S AN IMPOSTOR! - YouTube
Not watched it yet as I'm rationing the last of my monthly bandwidth atm.

Dogs'll be puttin' on their top hats, white ties, and (additional) tails for the Bark Ball, the Washington Humane Society's hugely popular gala June 14.
Some canines will be donning tutus and tiaras for the event that includes a Bark Bar of selected waters for dogs, and pooch-appropriate snacks.
Their human companions will enjoy a reception, an extensive silent auction, live auction, dinner, dancing, a program, and "special surprises", says the Washington Humane Society (WHS).
Master of Ceremonies is Larry Michael, Washington Redskins Senior Vice President. Will a special surprise be a new name for the team?
Here are some of those special silent auction items:
- Yappy House Patio Party for ten dogs at Equinox in Washington. (One of the best of the best restaurants in D.C.)
- Animal Communication Session with Diane Roadcap and you/your animals (I'll be bidding on this for a session with my white dove Nureyev, whom I adopted from a shelter 21 1/2 years ago.)
- Stays a top hotels including The W and The Jefferson in D.C.; and others in San Diego; Phoenix; St. Louis.
- Stays in resorts such as PGA National Resort & Spa in Palm Beach, Fla.; Pointe Hilton Squaw Peak Resort in Phoenix.
- Olde Towne Pet Resort Boarding & Spa Package in Springfield, Virginia.
- Washington Redskins VIP Package.
- Four PNC Diamond Club Tickets to the Washington Nationals. (The Nationals' and WHS' "Pups in the Park" tix are sold out.)
- Four Tickets to a live taping of "PBS Newshour" with Gwen Ifill & Judy Woodruff.
- Two opening night tickets and after-party at Shakespeare Theatre Company.
And those're only some of the silent auction items -- the live auction offerings are even grander. As a former "spotter" for the Bark Ball's live auction, I was amazed at some of the bargain winning bids for luxurious trips.
All proceeds will directly benefit WHS animals and programs.
For further enticement, check out last year's Bark Ball photos by Rich Kessler:
- Fido's red fascinator matches her mom's sparkly gown and smile, but not her attitude.
- "Woof" bones for dogs to wolf down.
The WHS has some of the most fun fundraisers in town, especially the Bark Ball; Fashion for Paws® Runway Show, where dogs put on the dog; and Sugar and Champagne for canine valentines.
Although formal duds are optional, leashes are not. All dogs must be leashed (no retractable leashes).
WHS is America's only Congressionally chartered animal welfare agency, established in 1870.

Vintage Steve Schick Video
A week ago, I found this video on YouTube and I wanted to make sure to share it with our followers. We are huge admirers of Steve Schick and was lucky enough to interview him on Podcast #30. According to the YouTube listing, this video is a "1986 KMTF (now KVPT) public television arts feature with percussionist Steven Schick, who offers a detailed primer on the role of the percussionist; also demonstrating the wide range of instruments and their origins, as well as performance techniques. The segment ends with a performance of Karlheinz Stockhausen's "Zyklus." The segments are hosted by Philip Lorenz. Schick was a faculty member of the Dept. of Music at CSU Fresno."

The City of Amsterdam Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP) is a locally prepared comprehensive land and water use plan for the City's natural, public, and developed waterfront resources along the Mohawk River and the Canal System.
The City of Amsterdam LWRP provides a comprehensive framework within which critical waterfront issues can be addressed, and planned waterfront improvement projects can be pursued and implemented. The Amsterdam LWRP was adopted by the City's Common Council on November 17, 1992 and approved by the New York State Secretary of State on February 22, 1993.
The highlighted text is a download link for the fulll City of Amsterdam LWRP document.
The links below provide easy access to each part of the City of Amsterdam LWRP, as approved in 1993:
Section I. Waterfront Revitalization Area Boundary
Section II. Inventory and Analysis
Section III. Waterfront Revitalization Program Policies
Section IV. Proposed Land and Water Uses and Proposed Projects
Section V. Techniques for Local Implementation of the Program
Section VI. State Actions and Programs Likely to Affect Implementation
Section VII. Local Commitment and Consultation
Appendix A. Waterfront Consistency Law
Appendix B. Guidelines for Notification of State Agency Actions
Building on the tremendous success of the previously completed Riverlink Park and Bridge Street projects, the City of Amsterdam is now beginning a strategy to further enhance waterfront access by developing new facilities which link the downtown and South Side, such as the pedestrian bridge across the Mohawk River, expected to begin construction this year.

Ryan Edwards and his girlfriend Shelby Woods, who he had been dating since summer 2013, broke up over the weekend, and after the split, a Twitter feud ensued. However, now that Ryan has had time time to reflect, he has admitted to his wrongdoings and is trying to win Shelby back.
"I just wanted to apologize for the things I said on tweeter out of anger," Ryan tweeted to Shelby, according to a Feb. 27 Wetpaint Entertainment report. "I just wanna let you know that I think your amazing girl shelby. I love you like crazy I regret the disrespectful stuff i did."
And he didn't stop there.
Ryan, who was accused of cheating on his girlfriend, continued to plea for forgiveness, but unfortunately, it doesn't look like Shelby is planning to take him back.
"I hope you can forgive me bc you mean so much to me," Ryan continued. "An btw no one is as beautiful an you when you wear your freckles."
In response, Shelby tweeted back to Ryan, saying, "Please don't take this personal but you ain't s**t, and you weren't special til I made ya so. I don't need you."
Ouch. It sounds like Shelby's mind is made up, and who can blame her? Although he didn't exactly come out and say, "I cheated," Ryan seems to have admitted doing something of the sort, and if he did, Shelby deserves better.
These two really had something good going. It's a shame that it ended so badly.

We've talked about the benefits of feng shui organizing before – how the ancient practice can be used to create a happy, healthy, and harmonious home.
Those same principles can be applied to your closets so you can feel serene and calm when you open your closet doors!
Feng shui practitioners believe that the placement of our belongings can either detract from or optimize our health, creativity, prosperity and more.
The First Step is Always Decluttering
First things first: make way for the new, get rid of the old. The average person only wears 20% of their wardrobe. Declutter that 80% and you'll have a closet you enjoy choosing outfits from.
1. Have a one-person fashion show. Try on everything. If it doesn't fit, get rid of it. If it's out dated, get rid of it. If the color does nothing for you, get rid of it. If you haven't worn it in the last two years, get rid of it. Donate these items to someone who will love them and wear them!
2. Be brutally honest with yourself. Separate the clothes you absolutely love from the maybes. When letting go of the old clothes you haven't worn in years, the ones that no longer fit or the awful colors that do nothing for your complexion it will make you and your closet feel lighter, clearer and ready for spring.
3. Have a swap party with your friends. Don't forget to check out your local consignment shops. Getting rid of old clothes you've spent a lot of money on will be hard, so why not sell them and get some of that money back? What you don't sell you can donate to your local Goodwill.
Feng Shui Your Closet
Now that you have purged and decluttered, it's time to apply feng shui principles to your closet. Here's how:
Step 1- Place your clothes in this order, going from left to right, to creative a positive energy flow for each category.
- Prosperity- Your work clothes
- Family/Friends- Casual wear, clothes you wear on the weekends or with your family
- Creative- Wardrobe items that enhance your creativity
- Success – Formal wear
- Love- Clothes that represent love in your life, e.g. wedding dress, lingerie
Step 2- Once you have your clothes in the right categories, arrange them in color order, from left to right: Black, brown, blue, green, purple, red, orange, pink, yellow, white, metallic, grey.
Step 3- Place them from long sleeve to short sleeve or vice versa depending on your preference.
Step 4- Make sure you have all matching hangers. This is the last step – but oh so important – for the look and feel of your closet.
You will feel a huge sense of relief, order and excitement after feng shuing your closet. When you look and feel great in what you are wearing your energy will be better and your power of prosperity will increase.
Tell me in the comments – do you use feng shui principles to organize your home?

It is a universal truth – well, in my universe at least – that one of the best things ever is a strong, hot cup of tea and a biscuit, with a really fantastic old novel. (For that matter, any baked good is welcome!) What I love even more is when I'm photographing said baked goods and writing about them.
The other reason for Tangerine Tea is that I love stories. I love telling them and reading them. At the end of 2010, I relocated to Quebec and I'm still exploring and finding out about life here.
The Cast:
|Me, Tina.
However, not actually a small child as this picture would suggest. Although… this picture does resemble me. As a small child.
I'm a freelance photographer and writer. Email me for related inquiries.
Best boyfriend ever; ever-eager food sampler and photo assistant. Looks nothing like this picture. Also, does not wear extremely small yellow shorts as in this somewhat misleading picture.
|Dusty the dog
Loyal, trusty sidekick. As sidekicks go, he does have his dimmer moments.
Likes to think he's helping in the kitchen by licking scavenging for crumbs off the floor.
Foodie extraordinaire! My brother and once-roommate. Simultaneously inspires me to experiment with new foods while also completely squashing all hope when he yells "OH MY GOD! How could you do that?! What would Gordon Ramsey say?!"
Appears in a satchel in this pic because he now lives sort of far away. Also, looks nothing like boyfriend (pictured above) in real life.
|Herb garden
Annual herb garden is a mostly annual summer occurrence. Alas, my thumbs aren't as green as one would hope, so herb garden inevitably meets a sad demise. However, can truthfully boast about a one-time sweet pea harvest (enough for one small salad), and a handful of herbs.
|Ellie the elephant
You didn't really think I had a pet elephant, did you? Actually it's just that I wanted an excuse to use this picture. How often do you see an elephant on a food blog? Credit goes to some lovely person called Teekatas for creating these images.

North Casper Fire Nearly Extinguished
Drew Douglas reports, firstname.lastname@example.com
The large fire in North Casper that started last week and spread to another unoccupied house is nearly extinguished.
Casper Fire Department Prevention Officer Justin Smith says there continues to be hot spots, but most of the smoldering fire is out.
Smith says fire crew are going by and checking the area every couple of hours.
He expects the controlled burn to die off in the next few days, but Monday's rain may speed up the process.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation.

I want to create a plugin or vst that checks for any note if its in the range (major, minor, octave, etc) I know I get input but dont know what it exactly is and trail and error is not how I want to do it .
Is there any documentation somewhere? I really want to get into this, but I dont have the knowledge yet.
Probably this seems all a bit noobish but I can program (Im studying computer science), though I work in delphi most of the time (which isnt a problem here)
I do have some idea on how sound works under windows (made a simple sound engine for a game) so I know how to play sounds synchronically and instant.

Total Store Ordering (TSO)
By Darryl Gove-Oracle on Aug 31, 2007
Total Store Ordering is the name for the ordering implemented on multi-processor SPARC systems. The SPARC architecture also defines a number of weaker orderings. TSO basically guarantees that loads are visible between processors in the order in which they occurred, the same for stores, and that loads will see the values of earlier stores. There's a very helpful description of this in the SPARC architecture documentation on pages 418-427 (section 9.5). Particularly useful is table 9-2 on page 422, which gives a useful summary of where membar operations are required.

Holliday Lake
The crown jewel in the scenic Holliday Lake State Park is likely to be the 145-acre Holliday Lake. The lake is in a beautiful setting, which provides an excellent backdrop for a family outing. The lake is clear and low in productivity, but still supports a quality largemouth bass fishery, as well as good sunfish and chain pickerel fishing. Black crappies also provide excellent fishing opportunities for anglers. This lake seems to "turn on" earlier than other lakes in the piedmont, and it offers anglers a good bet for early season action. Numerous fallen trees congregate fish for anglers to catch, but summer anglers should concentrate their efforts in the deeper water.
The lake level at Holliday Lake is lowered each winter for maintenance of the swimming beach and periodic placement of fish habitat structures. The normal, annual draw-down is 3 feet with every third year being a more substantial draw-down of 10 feet. Winter 2008-2009 is one of the 10-foot draw-downs with the next two winters being the 3 foot reduction. The ramp is inaccessible during the 10 foot draw-downs so calling the park prior to a fishing trip in the winter months might be in order. Draw-downs begin in early December with the lake allowed to refill in late February.
For park information, call 434-248-6308.

ST. LOUIS, Mo. -- Junior guard Michelle Young (Woodbury, Minn./Woodbury) picked up her third weekly honor of the young season, with the league office naming her the Missouri Valley Conference Scholar-Athlete of the Week Wednesday.
Young, who was also named the Valley Player of the Week and the Bradley Country Financial Scholar-Athlete of the Week, scored a career-best 32 points on 11-of-19 shooting in Bradley's victory against Illinois last Friday. She also added six rebounds, four assists, one block and a pair of steals. In the second half, Young hit 4-of-6 shots and had two rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals to help the Braves erase an 11-point halftime deficit.
Her 32 points tied for the eighth highest scoring output in school history and were the most by a Bradley player in a home contest since Genny Mueller had 33 points against Indiana State on March 6, 2004. In addition, Young had the most points in a season opener for a Bradley player and helped BU open the season with a victory against a BCS opponent for the first time since 1998-99. An elementary education (English) major, Young owns a 3.90 cumulative grade point average.
To qualify for Missouri Valley Conference Scholar-Athlete of the Week laurels, student-athletes must carry a cumulative grade-point average of 3.20, completed at least one academic year at a Valley institution and must be at least a sophomore in academic standing.
Young is averaging a MVC leading 26.0 points per game and has helped the Braves to their first 2-0 start to a season since 2008-09. Bradley will be trying to start a season 3-0 for the first time since 2004-05 when they take on Stony Brook Friday at 9:30 p.m. in the second game of a men's and women's basketball doubleheader at Carver Arena, which starts at 7 p.m. with the men's basketball team facing Chicago State.

Community Trust Bank is proud to recognize a local hero at each home game. The Hero of the Week award gives the community an opportunity to nominate and recognize local heroes for their profound impact on others and for making the community a better place. Dale Duboskas, Regional Manager of Commercial Banking for Texas, is proud to present the Hero of the Week award to the Moock family. On Christmas Day in 2006, Kelly and Jensen Moock rushed their 5-year-old son, Jake, to the emergency department at Children's Medical Center. They discovered that Jake's small intestine had ruptured, his organs were "going septic," and shutting down. Thanks to Children's, his life was saved. Today, he is a strong 11-year-old boy. Based on their personal experience at Children's, the Moocks felt compelled to help children who are impacted by life-threatening emergencies. With the generous support of their community, they helped fund and equip a one-of-a-kind pediatric simulation-training laboratory at Children's. Today the "SIMS Lab" is a 3,000-square-foot facility using high-fidelity manikins, interactive software, and virtual gaming platforms. They can simulate complex patient scenarios in order to learn and refine the latest pediatric rescue response skills. Now, the incredibly high tech SIMS Lab they helped start at Children's is now going mobile to emergency first responders and ambulatory teams in the field - it's even shared it with medical mission teams abroad, as far away as Bogota, Colombia. Community Trust Bank is a proud supporter of Children's Medical Center and we thank Kelly and Jenson Moock for their contribution to our community!
Van Pardue, Texas President, is proud to present the Hero of the Week award to Don Houseman. Don has been a staple in the Dallas community for a lifetime. He graduated from Highland Park High School then began his career in public service after graduating cum laude from the University of Texas at Austin. Don served bravely during World War II serving as First Lieutenant in the 106th Infantry Division. He received a Combat Infantry Badge, Bronze Star and two Purple Hearts. He was captured during Battle of Bulge being a POW in Germany. During his professional career, he was recognized as outstanding insurance man of the year by receiving the Mabry Seay Award in 1969. He has served on countless boards and committees and in various positions of public service throughout his life. Don is the former mayor and commissioner of University Park, as well as president of the Dallas Country Club. He is active in St. Michael and All Angels Episcopal Church as well as the Episcopal Diocese of Dallas. Don is married to Kathyrn, with which he has five children, several grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. On behalf of Community Trust Bank we thank you for all that you have done for the community!
Van Pardue, Texas President, and Dale Duboskas, Regional Manager for Commercial Banking, are proud to present the Hero of the Week award to Connie O'Neill. As a student at SMU Connie was President of Chi Omega Sorority and was the SMU Homecoming Queen in 1977. After Graduating Summa Cum Laude, Connie served on the board of directors and as President for the SMU Alumni Association. Connie is President of the Highland Park Education Foundation and has given her time to many organizations including: Children's Medical Center serving as President to the Foundation and President to the Women's Auxiliary. She is on the Board of Directors for the Susan G. Komen Foundation and is Chairman of the Finance Committee. She is President of the St Mark's Parents Association and past President of the La Fiesta. She is a true Community Hero!
Van Pardue, Texas President, and Holly Reed, Vice President of Business Development are proud to present the Hero of the Week award to Jan Langbein. Jan has been an activist in efforts to end violence against women. Since 1991, she has served as Executive Director of Genesis Women's Shelter in Dallas. She has worked with numerous local, state and national organizations. In partnership with the Dallas Police Department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, she co-founded the annual International Conference on Crimes Against Women. Under her leadership, Genesis has grown from a seven-room shelter to a full-service response facility for victims of domestic violence. Genesis is one of the few victim services programs in the country that is sustainable without government funding, thanks to Jan's efforts. Her extensive professional affiliations include positions with the Texas Council on Family Violence, Dallas County Family Violence Task Force, Dallas Mayor's Task Force on Domestic Violence, Greater Dallas Injury Prevention Center, and the North Texas Food Bank. She has also been recognized for numerous awards for her leadership and community service.
Thank you, Jan, for dedicating your life to standing up for others! You are a true hero!
Van Pardue, Texas President, is proud to present the Hero of the Week award to Charlie McKinney. Charlie founded Heroes Baseball in 2001. He formed a partnership with the City of Dallas and built the $1.5 million Little Heroes Baseball Field. McKinney also founded the Reebok Heroes Celebrity Baseball Event. With the success of Heroes Baseball, McKinney founded Heroes Basketball in 2006. He helped build the $2.5 million Heroes Cuban Basketball Center.

James T. Bradley, better known as Brad Bradley, has touched the lives of many in the community of Park Cities through his camera for as long as anyone can remember. He joined his father-in-law's photography studio in 1947 and hasn't stopped since. Brad's storied career includes inventing the TV color slide, photographing several NFL teams, being the official photographer for Highland Park ISD, and photographing every Cotton Bowl since 1948. Over the years, Brad has been a staple on the SMU campus, photographing players, practices and games. A special exhibit honoring Mr. Bradley was set up over the summer at SMU's Heritage Hall. While taking headshots for the SMU football team with his father, Mr. Bradley invented the "action shot" where a football player was posed to look though he was carrying a ball down the field. At 90, Brad still drives to work every day and hasn't lost that keen eye for action, capturing moments in time that will forever be remembered.

It has indeed been a good time for the X-men in the world of movies. The latest entry in the franchise, X-Men: Days of Future Past, has been a massive success; both financially and critically. So news on what is in store for the Marvel franchise's future can only be met with excitement. While details are unclear for the next film, X-Men: Apocalypse, several familiar faces will be returning; both from past timeline and the future timeline (supposedly). It is unclear if any X-Men from the original trilogy will be appearing in the next film, but one actor would certainly like to make an appearance.
In a new report from Variety, Kelsey Grammer sat down with the site and discussed the X-Men franchise. Grammer is known for his portrayal as Beast in the third installment to the franchise: X-Men The Last Stand. During the interview, Grammer pointed that he would like to come back as Beast somewhere down the road.
"I hope to do another," he said. "I hope they find some way to come up with a new story that involves Beast in my timeline."
While the plot details of Apocalypse are unknown at this time, what is known is that movie will be following the First Class cast. Writer Simon Kinberg mention that the next film would take place in the 1983 and see the James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender and Jennifer Lawrence again as the central characters. Kinberg also mention that there is a chance to see previous characters from the former timeline in the next film. So perhaps there is a chance to see the likes of Kelsey Grammer in Apocalypse.
While it would be great to see Grammer reprise his role as Beast in X-Men: Apocalypse, it may be unlikely. Moviegoers have already been treated to a X-men film centering on time travel. To use this element again for Apocalypse might be risky. However, one never knows. Perhaps there is a place for a conflict through time in the 2016 film, and we could see the likes of Kelsey Grammer (as well as Patrick Stewart and Hugh Jackman) again. If it does not come to be, fans should take comfort that we will see Beast again; just in the form of Nicholas Hoult.
What do you think? Do you want to see Kelsey Grammer in future X-Men films? Feel free to comment below. X-Men: Apocalypse is scheduled to hit theaters on May 27, 2016. X-Men: Days of Future Past is now playing in theaters.

STANFORD, Calif. -
Final score: Oregon 53, Stanford 30
On the kickoff, Usua Amanam fought for extra yardage and fumbled. The kicker, Rob Beard, recovered.
Oregon gains possession at the Stanford 30. Stanford's Matt Masifilo got a hand on the ball, forcing a fumble from quarterback Darron Thomas, but the Ducks fell on the ball.
Stanford takes the ball over on downs. On the next play, Drew Terrell caught a pass from Andrew Luck, but fumbled - Stanford's fifth turnover of the game. Avery Patterson knocked the ball loose for Oregon.
Oregon runs out the clock.
Fourth quarter (4:28 left): Oregon 53, Stanford 30
Stanford remains within two scores of catching the Ducks, but with fewer than five minutes. Andrew Luck's second-down pass deflected off the hands of freshman receiver Ty Montgomery and into the hands of Oregon's Boseko Kokombo, who returned the interception 40 yards for a touchdown.
Fourth quarter (5:09 left): Oregon 46, Stanford 30
Stanford bypasses the squib kick and goes deep and Oregon takes over at its 30. Kenjon Barner gains 14, and soon after quarterback Darron Thomas keep the ball on a naked bootleg for 18 yards.
Oregon faces third-and-10 at the Stanford 25 and Kenjon Barner was stopped after a two yard gain. Oregon will attempt a 40-yard field goal. It's good.
Fourth quarter (9:37 left): Oregon 43, Stanford 30
Stanford gets a good return from Usua Amanam to its 38. With a third-and-9 at the Oregon 47, Andrew Luck connects with Coby Fleener on a crossing route for 17 yards.
Levine Toilolo catches a pass over the middle for 11, moving the Cardinal to the 19. A pass to Griff Whalen moved the ball to the 7. Stanford struggles and faces a third-and-goal from the 9. Luck keeps the ball and reaches the 1. Stanford will go for it on fourth down.
Jeremy Stewart leaps over the right side for the touchdown.
Fourth quarter (14:02 left): Oregon 43, Stanford 23
LaMichael James picks his way through the Stanford defense for 13 yards to the 3. On second down at the 1, James scored off left guard.
End of third quarter: Oregon 36, Stanford 23
Oregon takes possession at its 31, and quarterback Darron Thomas keeps it and finds space for eight yards. LaMichael James runs and spins for 14 yards to the Stanford 47.
James carries for eight more, and is not even touched until he reaches the second level of the defense. Kenjon Barner runs around right end for 10, again not touched until well downfield.
James runs for nine, and Stanford can't substitute in time and is called for too many men on the field. Oregon settles in at the Stanford 15 as the quarter expires.
Third quarter (2:38 left): Oregon 36, Stanford 23
Stanford trails by 20 with 1½ quarters to work with. A pass to Griff Whalen and a hands to the face penalty moves the ball to the Oregon 42.
Tyler Gaffney runs twice for 17 combined yards, gaining a first down out of the Wildcat formation. On second down, another Luck pass is dropped by a tight end. Facing third-and-6 at the 24, Luck goes to tight end Levine Toilolo for a first down.
Again, Stanford is in a third-down situation, this time at the 12. With an empty backfield, Luck finds Toilolo, who slips before reaching the first down marker. On fourth and 1 at the 7, fullback Ryan Hewitt picks up the first down, but Stanford takes an Oregon offsides penalty to the 4.
Another offsides call creates a first-and-goal at the 2. Luck pivots on the play action and throws to Jeremy Stewart for the score.
Third quarter (7:41 left): Oregon 36, Stanford 16
On the first play of the series, Andrew Luck is sacked from his blindside by Terrell Turner and fumbles, with Brandon Hanna recovering. Hanna was tackled at the 12 by Jonathan Martin.
On the next play, Oregon quarterback Darron Thomas finds tight end David Paulson circling behind a defender. Paulson appeared to make a diving catch for a score, but the play was reviewed and the pass was ruled incomplete.
LaMichael James was stopped on the next play for no gain and Oregon suddenly faces a third down. Thomas passes to Lavasier Tuinei to the 4, and the Ducks go for it on fourth down. James scores easily off right guard.
Third quarter (8:51 left): Oregon 29, Stanford 16
Oregon takes over at its own 30 after the missed field goal try, but immediately faces a third-and-8 and Cory Gatewood, a fifth-year player who recently swithed back to defense from receiver, broke up the pass with a leaping knockdown.
Third quarter (11:08 left): Oregon 29, Stanford 16
Stanford faces a third-and-6 in what might be considered four-down territory. Luck's throw is dropped by Coby Fleener on a crossing route. Stanford instead will try a 48-yard goal by Eric Whitaker, but it's wide right.
Third quarter (11:02 left): Oregon 29, Stanford 16
Stanford takes over at its 34 after the kickoff. The game is going as could have been expected, with Oregon exploding for big plays and Stanford driving in small increments. Two turnovers by Stanford have hurt in a game in which anything other than a touchdown drive might be perilous.
Stanford was stopped when Andrew Luck was sacked on third down by Taylor Hart and was forced to punt - a dangerous situation with Oregon ahead by 13 and scoring at will.
But David Green's punt was muffed by LaMichael James on a fair catch try and Stanford's Harold Bernard recovered, giving the Cardinal new life and the ball at the Oregon 34.
Third quarter (13:23 left): Oregon 29, Stanford 16
Stanford kicks off to begin the second half. Darron Thomas patiently waits as pressure approaches before dumping off to LaMichael James for a first down to its own 41.
Thomas evades the rush and throws to Josh Huff, who beats Terrence Brown on the coverage and takes off. Brown misses a tackle and so does Michael Thomas. Huff completes a 59-yard touchdown play.
Halftime: Oregon 22, Stanford 16
Oregon takes over at its 38 yards line after rolling kickoff. Two passes to Kenjon Barner take Oregon into Stanford's 42, but the Ducks run out of time and the half ends.
Second quarter (0:24 left): Oregon 22, Stanford 16
Andrew Luck hits tight end Coby Fleener on consecutive passes after Stanford takes possession, to its own 48. The second pass to Fleener was into tight coverage, and Fleener made a great catch for 28 yards.
A drop by Levine Toilolo has Stanford in third-and-5, but Luck finds Griff Whalen for a first down. Luck hits Ty Montgomery to the 31.
After a Stanford timeout with 53 seconds left, Stanford gains 18 on another Luck to Whalen pass. On the next play, Luck hits Whalen on a slant and he pushes into the end zone between two defenders.
Eric Whitaker makes the kick.
Second quarter (2:52 left): Oregon 22, Stanford 9
After the kickoff, Oregon takes over at its 30. After a 10-yard pass, LaMichael James again found space at the line, gaining 15. With a third-and-5, at Stanford's 39, De'Anthony Thomas is stood up by Ben Gardner and Matt Masifilo for a loss of two. Oregon will go for it on fourth down - touchdown.
Darron Thomas threw to De'Anthony Thomas in the right flat and he had room down the right sideline to use his speed to score from 41 yards.
Second quarter (4:57 left): Oregon 15, Stanford 9
Stanford's A.J. Tarpley was called for a horse-collar tackle on a three-yard loss, but Oregon picked up the penalty yardage to the 35.
De'Anthony Thomas had room and broke past the line, but Stanford safety Delano Howell stuck his injured hand into the ball and stripped it loose. Jarek Lancaster made the recovery.
Andrew Luck completed a pass to Griff Whalen over the middle and yardage was added on because Whalen was speared by Oregon's Michael Clay.
With the ball on the 21, Luck looked for Ty Montgomery deep in the end zone, but the ball was batted away. Stanford faces a third-and-6 at the 17. Luck found Stepfan Taylor in the left flat, but he slipped for only a three-yard game.
Eric Whitaker lines up to try a 32-yard field goal. The Cardinal is called for delay of game, extending the try to 37 yards from the left hashmark. It's good. Stanford keeps alive its perfect percentage in the red zone.
Second quarter (9:03 left): Oregon 15, Stanford 6
Stanford takes over at its own 34, and Stepfan Taylor immediately gains 5. A broken play, with Andrew Luck finding no one open, bought enough time to find fullback Ryan Hewitt for a first down.
However, Stanford faces a third-and-6 at the Oregon 49. Luck's pass intended for Drew Terrell wasn't close and Stanford must punt.
Oregon will take possession at its own 20.
Second quarter (11:49 left): Oregon 15, Stanford 6
Ben Rhyne kicked off to the goal line. Oregon takes over at its 15.
Oregon faces a third-and-4 at its 21, and Stanford is called for a holding penalty, on safety Michael Thomas, and picks up the first down.
One play later, Oregon finally showed the explosion and speed that has becomes its defining characteristic. LaMichael James broke through the line, shifted past a defender or two and no one could catch him on a 58-yard touchdown run.
Second quarter (13:51 left): Oregon 8, Stanford 6
Stepfan Taylor gains three on third-and-1 on his 14th carry of the game. Stanford, with the ball at the Oregon 16, goes with an Andrew Luck to Griff Whalen pass in the end zone for a touchdown.
Whalen was lined up left and gapped his defender to make an open catch. However, Stanford kicker Eric Whitaker was wide right on the conversion try.
End of first quarter: Oregon 8, Stanford 0
Stanford faces a third-and-1 at its own 42 before fullback Ryan Hewitt takes the short handoff and gains seven for the first down. Tyler Gaffney gains seven out of the Wildcat Formation, but the ball was ripped out of his hands as he was falling by Troy Hill. The play was called a fumble. But it was reviewed and reversed and Stanford retained possession.
On second and 10 from the Oregon 40, Stepfan Taylor gained 12 up the middle, and another eight on the next play, this time on the outside to the 20.
First quarter (3:59 left): Oregon 8, Stanford 0
Stepfan Taylor and Tyler Gaffney pick up a combined 18 yards on two carries as the Cardinal crosses midfield for the first time in the game.
Andrew Luck is hit as he throws by Boseko Lokombo on a blitz and the ball is nearly intercepted by a lineman before falling incomplete. Stanford now faces a third down and 8 at the Oregon 49.
Luck looks left on the pass, but throws right, into the hands of Dewitt Stuckey, who returns it 30 yards before Luck upends him at the Stanford 20.
On first down, Oregon quarterback Darron Thomas gains 9 on an option keeper. De'Anthony Thomas takes a pitch on an end around, but is run down by Terrance Brown for no gain. No matter, LaMichael James runs for 6 on the next play.
Thomas rolls right on third down and finds Lavasier Tuinei in the back corner of the end zone. The Ducks run a two-point try, with David Paulson throwing to short snapper Jeff Palmer for the conversion.
First quarter (7:57 left): Stanford 0, Oregon 0
LaMichael James is tackled for a five-yard loss by Chase Thomas. Oregon faces a third-and-10 at its 47.
Darron Thomas heaved a pass that was intercepted by Trent Murphy under heavy pressure, but the officials say they whistled the play dead, on a sack by Matt Masifilo, before he threw the ball. The loss was for 20 yards, but Oregon was able to punt.
Instead of the ball at the Oregon 30, the Cardinal will take over at its own 31.
The teams have combined for 1 yard in total offense.
First quarter (9:15 left): Stanford 0, Oregon 0
Starting from its own 8, Stanford picks up a first down on a short pass from Andrew Luck to Griff Whalen after the receiver was initially covered, but maneuvered for an opening for eight yards.
Facing third and three, Luck rolled right only for his pass to Whalen to be broken up by Oregon's Eddie Pleasant, forcing another Cardinal punt.
David Green punts for only 28 yards and Oregon will take over at its own 47.
First quarter (12:13 left): Stanford 0, Oregon 0
Stanford, with Olympic volleyball player as an honorary captain, wins the toss and receives the opening kickoff.
Stanford takes possession at its own 17-yard line after Ty Montgomery's short return. Stepfan Taylor carries the defense five yards on the initial play. But Stanford goes three and out on the opening series, after an incompletion and swing pass to Tyler Gaffney for no gain.
After a punt, Oregon begins at its own 36. The Ducks immediately go into the no-huddle, and on second down, LaMichael James is dropped for a four-yard loss on a tackle by Trent Murphy, after a cutback move. The Ducks also go three-and-out.
In the most anticipated college football game in the West this season, Stanford plays Oregon at Stanford Stadium in a matchup that will likely determine the Pac-12 North Division title and a berth in the inaugural conference championship game.
Stanford (9-0 overall, 7-0 Pac-12) and Oregon (8-1, 6-0) present a matchup of high-scoring teams that win with different methods. Oregon plays a spread, up-tempo offense, while Stanford goes with a power running game augmented by the passing of quarterback Andrew Luck.

Yesterday, this column reviewed the science fiction classic "The Matrix," which came out in 1999. Throughout the 1990s, there were many solid sci-fi films. Whereas "The Matrix" provoked deep contemplation and serious debates, at the other end of the spectrum we find "Men in Black," which prompted smiles and guffaws.
"Men in Black" are employees of a secret agency, based in New York City, who monitor the actions of aliens on earth. The basic premise the viewer has to accept is that aliens are everywhere in the disguise of humans, and most people are unaware of them. Most aliens are law-abiding citizens who conform to the basic rules of human citizenship. But others are dangerous, hence the need for oversight. One of the seasoned veterans of the agency, Agent Kay (played by Tommy Lee Jones), needs a new partner. After chasing down a very fast alien, young, clearly together cop James Edwards (played by Will Smith) piques Kay's attention. After passing an extremely clever entrance exam, James is offered the job and is renamed Jay. For their first task as partners, they must find an alien bug that has hidden itself in a farmer (played by Vincent D'Onofrio).
Riffing off of law enforcement, science fiction, monster, and buddy movies, "Men in Black" is hysterical. The humor stems from superb dialogue, inventive situations and terrific sight gags. Each alien is more bizarre than the one before.
The special effects are very well-done. In the climax, we see a giant alien, who looks quite real. The Men in Black headquarters employs many aliens performing the mundane jobs of keeping a bureaucratic office running..
The cast is excellent. As Jay and Kay, Smith and Jones are a delightful acting pair to watch. They have great chemistry. Vincent D'Onofrio makes a fun villain, who has a very odd way of walking. Another memorable performance is by Linda Fiorentino, who plays an attractive doctor who works in a morgue. She often sees aliens, and her memory is always erased by the Men in Black.
"Men in Black" is a great choice for fans of science fiction comedies.

Tasty Red Clover
See that stuff. It's red clover. It grows everywhere and apparently you can EAT it. Jonathan M. Forester of SlashFood insists the shoots are yummy and the flowers are loaded with protein. Check it out:
Red & White Clover are both edible raw in salads, as cooked greens, and more. The young and tender shoots and greens can be tasty, but older ones can get tough. Just stick to ones that look fresh and haven't gone grass-like and you should be fine. The flower heads are nutritious and full of protein but they should either be soaked in salty water for a few hours or briefly boiled or cooked before eating; so that they are easier to digest. Eating them raw is usually not as good an experience. I like them stir fried or sauteed until well done, or lightly battered and made into fritters or tempura. I find that the saltiness of the tempura dipping sauce works well with them. If the blossoms seem past their prime, or even going to seed, all the better. Because then you can dry them and grind them into a protein rich and nutritious flour. Just don't try to cook and eat them unless they are soft and fresh, or they will be quite unappetizing.
I was personally introduced to them when I was studying wilderness survival, and one day we had to prepare and eat them every way we could. It wasn't a high point of the week long course, but not the low point either.
I have to admit. Eating flowers makes me nervous. Not sure why. Although, I've seen Dr. Fuhrman himself eat an orchid. Even still, it weirds me out—do any of you eat flowers?
Oh, and for more interesting plant news. TreeHugger is talking about hemp.

Getting normally-distributed random numbers in TSQLPublished 7 February 2014 6:17 pm
When you are creating test data, you will, at some stage, hit the problem of simulating a distribution. There are plenty of different distributions. In the real world, variables such as height, rainfall, or examination results conform to a Normal or Gaussian distribution, where the mean is the median, and variables are more likely to have their values close to the median. The natural world is full of examples of variables that conform to the normal distribution, and exhibit the easily-recognised bell-curve when graphed by frequency. This is because the final distribution is the sum of a number of factors that are subject to chance variation.
Were you to have, for example, a cat database that included their weights, and wanted to get some data in there to simulate real data, you might think of using the RAND() function. This would end up giving you a 'flat' or 'Uniform' distribution, providing you a range including microscopic cats at the same frequency as cats the size of tigers, with an equal chance of everything in between. This is quite unlike the experience of a normal vet's practice. No. You would probably want a normal distribution though if you were specialising in cats with weight problems, it would be skewed.
In a normal distribution, the shape of the bellcurve is determined by the standard deviation of the variable. This is the dispersion from the average within which 68.2% of all observations will fall. Double the value of this range and 95% of observations will fall within it. (this is used as the classic 'margin of error'). If we have cats that range widely, then the population with have a high standard deviation. The standard deviation of a population is easily got from a table using the StDev() aggregate function.
So, to return to our tests for our cat database, we need to get the distribution of weights right because the distribution of values of any indexed column are likely to be stored in a special database object and used by the query optimiser to choose the best strategy for getting the data that you request via a SQL Query. If the distribution of your test data is different to your production data then you are unlikely to get the same performance characteristics as in your production system.
Male cats average around 2.8 Kg for a male and 2.4 Kg for a female and we guess at the standard deviation in both cases being around 0.5 Kg. You don't have the problem of getting these figures because you can get the mean and standard deviation from the production data via a simple SQL Call.
Here, in the following SQL, we have used the values for male cats. We can now generate the data for them
Declare @RandomNumbers table (number float) –a simple table of numbers
Declare @Mean float –the mean (and median if normally distributed)
Declare @StandardDeviation float –(the Standard deviation you want)
Declare @ii int –counter
Declare @TotalWanted int –counter
Select @Mean=2.8, @StandardDeviation=0.5, @ii=1, @TotalWanted=10000;
/* now we generate the numbers we want, with the mean and standard deviation we want */
while @ii<= @TotalWanted
insert into @RandomNumbers(number) select ((rand()*2-1)+(rand()*2-1)+(rand()*2-1))*@StandardDeviation+@mean;
Select @ii=@ii+1;
–now we see what we've got and check its mean and standard deviation
Select count(*) as [count], avg(number) as [avg], stDev(number) as [stDev]from @RandomNumbers
And here are the values of the population that we'd expect.
count avg stDev
———– ———————- ———————-
10000 2.79952921818089 0.697902053383761
…and the characteristic bell-curve
So we would have two populations, depending on the sex of the cat and each time we wanted a value, we'd use the SQL Call with the correct mean and standard deviation. Three calls to RAND() will be the minimum to give you the normal distribution. You can add them, of course to get it even finer but this is good enough for me.
There are, of course, plenty of other types of elliptical distributions and then there is the Pareto distribution which corresponds to the way wealth tends to be distributed. Most distributions will be skewed so that the mean and median don't correspond. Beyond simple distributions such as these, the mathematics begin to get rather complex so we'll leave it there for this blog. For more details on the various types of non-uniform distributions see Dwain Camps' excellent article on the subject on SQL Server Central called Generating Non-uniform Random Numbers with SQL
