This is the perfect size for our small office. It is very nice looking and very roomy. Even our technicians commented on how much room there is. We had been looking for quite some time for a small refrigerator but something larger than the dorm refrigerators. We are so pleased with this fridge.

We bought this unit for our wet bar. It is a perfect fir for the small area we have for it and it is also very attractive with the staineless steel and black. The problem is there is only one temperature control for the fridge and freezer. We played with it for days trying to get the perfect temperature because it was either freezing the beverages in the fridge or thawing the ice in the freezer. Disappointing. We finally settled ona temperte that is slightly to warm for the freezer and we do not use it at all. :(

About Me Avid Cook
This refrigerator was purchased to replace a beverage machine that we had. We needed something small enough to fit in a limited space that would hold more beverages then a beverage center would have held.
Delivery was prompt and the refrigerator was installed quickly and ready to use.

Ralston next
After doing for TVNZ what he had previously done for Metro magazine, Bill Ralston's days as news and current affairs boss at the state broadcaster look to be numbered after network head Ian Fraser reportedly heads for the exit door. No great loss.

I imagine morale in TVNZ would greatly improve if it were privatised and cut free from any NZ on Air or the charter.ReplyDelete
Paul holmes recently remarked how good it felt not having to justify his salary from a state owned enterprise?/propaganda machine to envy ridden assholes who think everyone should earn the same salary.
The difficult situation any TVNZ employee making more than the cleaners on minimum wage is that some of those envy ridden assholes are in the government and as political apointees in TVNZ.
Combine that with the conflict of making a profit and propaganda and you have a miserible working enviroment
Say what you mean, and mean what you say.

I've got a problem with a really tight and tough memory limit. I'm a CPP geek and I want to reduce my memory usage. Please give me some tips.
One of my friends recommended to take functions inside my structs out of them. for example instead of using:
struct node{
int f()
he recommended me to use:
int f(node x)
does this really help?
Note: I have lots of copies of my struct.
here's some more information:
I'm coding some sort of segment tree for a practice problem on an online judge. I get tree nodes in a struct. my struct has these variables:
int start;
int end;
bool flag;
node* left;
node* right;
The memory limit is 16 MB and I'm using 16.38 MB.

Learn the Proven Steps in Making Wine Today!
For Today only, get this Amazon Kindle book for just $2.99. Regularly priced
at $4.99. Read on your PC, Mac, smart phone, tablet or Kindle device.
This book contains proven steps and strategies on how to become a truly remarkable and successful winemaker. It has been done by people in ancient times, with limited knowledge and equipment. Yet they were successful. You can, too. With this book, you will know the science behind the art of wine making. The terms may be too intimidating at first like vats and hydrometers. The good thing is, this book breaks down all those wine making jargons and makes you understand it better. This is not your run-of-the-mill, scholastic book about wine making. This book will give you the detailed explanation on what is happening within the vats of fermenting wine and how it eventually turns out into the clear and intoxicating sweet potion with an equally delicious aroma.
Here's an inescapable fact: you will need to know how the whole process works. People in ancient times did not know the science of fermentation, nor know how exactly alcohol is produced. That is why they had years of experimenting before they eventually got the kind of wine they wanted. With this book, you will get your desired kind of wine at the first try. No need for trial and error. Make the first batch as successful one and avoid the costly and wasteful discarding of gallons and gallons of bad wine and unsuccessful fermenting.
If you do not develop your knowledge and understanding of the wine making process, if you dive right in without any background information, chances are, you will fail. How many wasted time, effort and money do you need before successfully creating wine? Read this book and avoid failures. You will learn exactly how to make wine successfully, the secrets jealously guarded by great wineries, handed down over generations. You can even learn how to make your very own signature taste- a one of a kind wine that will be credited to your own creativity and ingenuity. Learn the basics so you can learn how to make the process of wine making your own.
Here Is A Preview Of What You'll Learn...
- History of Wine & Winemaking
- Basic Terms of Winemaking
- The Ingredients
- The Equipment
- The Process
- And Much, much more!

Kevin Nealon Hopes His Wife Is Reading This
Kevin Nealon wants to spend Valentine's Day with you. He's even named his standup show King of Love to get you in the mood. It'll be at Largo at the Coronet on Tuesday.
Here's our Q&A with Nealon:
How much of a romantic are you?
I am very romantic. In fact, I just renewed my vows .. although it was with another woman.

Is your wife a good sport about you working on Valentine's Day?
She is, but the truth is I forgot it was Valentine's Day when I booked it. And besides, every day is Valentine's Day with us. I hope she reads this.
How will you make it up to her?
To make up for it, I promised her I wouldn't work on St. Paddy's Day.
What's your favorite Valentine's memory?
I don't have just one favorite memory. They are all my favorites. Any day that is designated to shower the person you love with love is my favorite holiday. God, I hope she is reading this!
What is your ideal Valentine's date?
Just being with my wife and doing anything. We could just be sitting together doing nothing and that, too, could be ideal. Can you get a copy of this to my wife?
Which one of your characters is the best lover?
Probably the one from an SNL commercial parody I did with Victoria Jackson called "The Love Toilet." It was a specially designed toilet for lovers where you can both be sitting and facing each other at the same time while doing your business.
Why should couples come to your Largo show on Valentine's Day?
To show their love.

In France, a supposedly-secularized 'modern' nation, one's religious beliefs were overwhelming significant in choosing a presidential candidate in the recent elections.
On Wednesday, Russia commemorated the 67th anniversary of the Soviet Union's victory over Nazi Germany, with a massive military parade in Moscow. The hour long ceremony was akin to the old May Day and Victory Day rallies held by the Soviet Union during the Cold War.
On Sunday French voters, angry over austerity measures, replaced President Nicolas Sarkozy with Socialist Francois Hollande.

Apple has no plans to release 'iPad 3' or television at Macworld or CESDispelling a questionable rumor that Apple would unveil a third-generation iPad at the forthcoming Macworld conference, a new report plainly states Apple has no such plans.
Citing "a number of" sources, Jim Dalrymple at The Loop reported on Thursday that rumors of a so-called "iPad 3" being announced at Macworld|iWorld 2012 are "completely false." He also went on to say that the next iPad won't be shown at the Consumer Electronics Show in January, either.
In addition, Apple will not show off its much-rumored television set at either show, the sources reportedly said. Rumors of a full-fledged Apple HDTV have picked up considerable steam in recent months, but most reports have said the device will arrive in mid-to-late 2012 at the earliest.
Dalrymple's report comes in response to a story published on Wednesday by Taiwanese technology industry publication DigiTimes. The Far East news source, which has a hit-or-miss track record, claimed that Apple would show off both a high-end and mid-range iPad at the Macworld conference on Jan. 26, 2012.
The report was immediately questionable because Apple announced in 2008 that it would no longer be attending the Macworld Expo and would instead unveil products at its own media event. True to its word, Apple has not attended the Macworld Expo since 2009.

Excellent 4.4 /5 from 208 reviews
We brought our family to see Sting and Peter Gabriel. We came a couple of days early to sight see. The concert was on Tuesday night and we checked in Sunday night late. Wandered around Monday and loved it. Drove over to Colorado Springs Tuesday 45 minutes away and got a phone call from Best Western and they wanted to know if we were staying a third night. The maid had told them our room was clean and she thought we had left. We tried to call them for around 30 minutes and their phone did not work. We called our home and had someone else try and they could not get their phone at the hotel to work. I called Best Western customer service and they could not get it to work. We were afraid they would rent out our room. We drove the 45 minutes back to Best Western to make sure we had a room. we did not have time to go back. They ruined an entire day that we could not get back.
The Wifi did not work and when we asked, we didn't get any assistance.
This hotel was very good in all respects except for the quality of the toilet paper. Improve the quality and the patrons will be happy
Great hotel, very clean.. Thank You. Very good customer sevice.
Staff was fantastic, room was equal to staff, free breakfast was a pleasant variety. Only issue that I was over charged by 1 day on billing, stayed only 2 nights and was charged for 3
Is the description of this hotel not correct? Tell us

Hot Lava's eclectic indie pop tunes -- peppered with techno-geek jargon, slicked with gritty beach rock guitar stylings, and laced with spooky reverb effects -- nodded to fun-loving acts like the Bicycles and the Blow. Founded by a group of art school students in Richmond, VA, in 2006, Hot Lava underwent several lineup changes in their formative years; by the time the band went into the studio in 2008 to record its debut album, the lineup consisted of lead singer Allison Apperson, drummer Jared Sosa, bassist Andrew Mowe, and keyboardist Matt Deans. Their first release, Lavalogy, was released on Bar/None in 2009. ~ Margaret Reges

Port to seek legal opinion for Terrebonne dry dock
Published: Tuesday, May 5, 2009 at 10:56 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, May 5, 2009 at 10:56 a.m.
HOUMA - Officials are seeking more legal advice on whether an Edison Chouest Offshore affiliate can be awarded a bid to construct a dry dock for Houma's port.
In addition to an opinion from Louisiana's ethics board sought last week, the Terrebonne Port Commission plans to seek one from the state's attorney general.
The question emerged because Edison Chouest Offshore of Galliano will be leasing the dry dock as part of a new shipyard in Houma expected to employ as many as 1,000 workers.
Larose-based North American Shipbuilding, the founding shipyard for Edison Chouest, submitted the low $19.5 million bid April 21 for constructing the dry dock.
The Port Commission authorized its legal staff to seek the attorney general's opinion at a special meeting Friday, Executive Director David Rabalais said.
After the legal staff for the port sent the ethics inquiry, "they thought it would probably be a good idea to get an attorney-general opinion as well just to make sure had our bases covered," Rabalais said.
State boards and commissions are among the public bodies that may request an advisory opinion from the attorney general for matters relating to state law. Those opinions are not binding and do not carry the force of law.
The two inquiries will likely delay the awarding of the bid for at least 30 days, Rabalais said.
LaShip was made possible with a land donation and contributions from Edison Chouest. It also is supported with various forms of state financing, including hurricane-recovery bonds.
The yard will be designed to build vessels ranging from offshore-supply boats to complex and specialized vessels like icebreakers.
The dry dock will be partially financed with $9 million from the state, which Edison Chouest will repay by leasing the facility from the port.
The rest of the cost, estimated by engineers at $24 million, will be paid by LaShip.
Roger White, senior vice president at the company, has said there should be no problem with the bid because the two affiliates have separate ownership, with their only connection being they're marketed under the Edison Chouest brand.
White would not say who, specifically, owns North American Shipbuilding or Edison Chouest. Gary Chouest is Edison Chouest Offshore's president.

Familiar face to lead Terrebonne's first parade
Published: Tuesday, January 24, 2006 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, January 24, 2006 at 11:06 a.m.
HOUMA -- If you were a kid in the early 1990s or had one living in your home, chances are you are familiar with a television series called "Saved by the Bell."
2006 Terrebonne Parish parade schedule

Bonne Terre, 4 p.m., Montegut
The sitcom, which is syndicated and can still be seen on television from time to time, featured the antics of half a dozen teens enrolled at the fictitious Bayside High School and the principal who tried to keep them all in line.
In less than a month, youll have the opportunity to see Dennis Haskins, the man who played Principal Richard Belding, in person instead of on a television rerun.
Haskins will reign as grand marshal of the 2006 Krewe of Hercules parade, which is scheduled to roll through the streets of west Houma Feb. 17.
"This is the first time hes been down. It will be a real experience," said S.P. LaRussa, captain and founder of the Krewe of Hercules. "We will treat him better than they treat the grand marshal in New Orleans."
This years parade, which kicks off Houmas two-week carnival season, will feature 30 floats, 650 riders and seven marching bands. The theme is "Creatures of the Imagination."
Haskins, 49, is best known for his portrayal as the exasperated principal in the original "Saved by the Bell" series, which ran on Saturday mornings from 1989-1993, and the television movies and spin-off series that followed. But he has appeared in a number of small- and big-screen productions including "An Ordinary Killer," "Magnum P.I.," "The West Wing" and "The Practice."
LaRussa said the Krewe of Hercules royal court would pick up Haskins at the Louis Armstrong International Airport in New Orleans Feb. 16, a day before their scheduled parade.
While Haskins is in town, he will be treated like a king, LaRussa said. In addition to meeting all the krewe members, the actor will receive numerous gifts and the key to the city during the Terrebonne Council on Agings Mardi Gras Party, which is held the morning of the parade at the East Houma Bingo Hall.
LaRussa said Haskins is not the first celebrity to serve as Hercules grand marshal. Dan Haggerty, who is best known for portraying Grizzly Adams on the television series "The Life and Times of Grizzly Adams" in the late 1970s, reigned over last years festivities.
LaRussa said he and his fellow krewe members are excited about this years carnival season, which he predicts will be one of the biggest in Terrebonnes history because of hurricane damage in New Orleans.
That city has already said its celebration will be an abbreviated one because of the blow Hurricane Katrina inflicted on the Crescent City and its finances. The city pays for police overtime and garbage pickup.
In addition, hotel rooms are hard to find because many are filled with hurricane evacuees who havent been able to return home yet.
The storm hasnt caused any delays or cancellations here.
With the "greatest free party in the world" going on as usual, LaRussa and some parish officials have said that revelers who might otherwise go to New Orleans will come here instead.
"Terrebonne Parishs Mardi Gras will be bigger than ever," LaRussa previously said. "The number of people at the parades will double."

Does Exercise Make You Sick?
My life partner has been diagnosed with respiratory reactive disease. He is normally a cyclist and hiker. He was ill a great deal last fall and winter. What do you recommend he do to stay healthy and fit?
Answer (Published 9/21/2007)
Respiratory reactive disease, sometimes called reactive airway disease and better known as exercise-induced asthma, is a form of asthma that occurs among people who don't have the allergies or recurrent infections that usually trigger asthma symptoms. Instead, their symptoms (wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath) occur when they exert themselves, as in aerobic exercise. Fortunately, attacks are preventable with proper precautions, changes in diet and lifestyle, and with medications in the form of inhalers for use prior to exercise.

Programmer Deathmatch II
Last fall, Berkeley Data Systems ran a "Programmer Deathmatch", offering a $10,000 prize to the one programmer who successfully navigated 3 timed rounds of programming competition. (You can read my write up of the event here and here.)
Of course, Berkeley Data Systems wasn't just trying to add some fun to the local landscape, they were looking for some programmers to recruit and they ended up finding two of them. It looks like they've decided that this was money well spent, because on April 14th, they'll be holding a second in what they've told me will be a recurring series of events.
This time around the stakes are even higher. They've promise $20,000 which will be distributed according to the following equation:
There are some restrictions:
- only a few languages are allowed (yes, Ruby's one of them)
- all contestants must be full-time residents of Utah
- all contestants must be eligible to work in the state of Utah
There are a few more, but you can go and read them at mozy.com/contest if you'd like.
If you're a Utahn, and up for a programming challenge, you might want to leave April 14th open on your calendar. Oh, and if you decide to compete, good luck — judging from last year's competition, you'll need it.
not worth it
I think I will wait for php 6 myself.
Programmer Deathmatch
Here is a link http://jenseng.com/archives/000052.html to the story wrote by one of the 8 finalists of the Programmer Deathmatch
Hirees from the last contest
There were actually four new hires as a result of the last programming competition. Two Rubyists, a PHP developer (now doing Ruby) and a top notch Window's desktop application programmer. Of those, two didn't even make it to the final round, but were impressive enough in their performance nevertheless.
four hires? cool!
Jacob, thanks for the update. The only ones I'd heard about were the two Rubyists. (It's good to hear that the former PHPer is doing Ruby work now, too.)
I read so much about ruby
I read so much about ruby lately, is it really so good that it is worth switching from php (with PHP6 in the pipeline) to ruby?

Practical Task Scheduling Deployment
July 20, 2016 12:00 pm CDT
One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of criteria. It's pretty easy to string these tools together to build even more powerful tools, such as a tool that finds all of the .log files in the /home directory and searches each one for a particular entry. This erector-set mentality allows UNIX system administrators to seem to always have the right tool for the job.
Cron traditionally has been considered another such a tool for job scheduling, but is it enough? This webinar considers that very question. The first part builds on a previous Geek Guide, Beyond Cron, and briefly describes how to know when it might be time to consider upgrading your job scheduling infrastructure. The second part presents an actual planning and implementation framework.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

Opera Software says it will support the recently released WAP (Wireless Application Protocol) 2.0 standard in future versions of its browser. WAP 2.0, unveiled Aug. 1 by the WAP Forum, integrates technologies native to the Web, including XHTML (Extensible Hypertext Markup Language) and CSS (Cascading Style Sheets). Opera's pledge comes as browser makers angle to provide software that can surf the Web via mobile computing devices such as cell phones and handhelds. Early in the summer, the U.K.-based mobile software unit of Psion selected Opera as the browser for its handsets. The agreement came shortly after Opera took the wraps off its deal to supply IBM with small browsers. One new competitor to Opera is Bitstream's ThunderHawk software. In addition, Mozilla.org, funded by AOL Time Warner's Netscape unit, has ascribed repeated delays in its development to work on microbrowsing capacities.
A new version of the Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) has been released for public review, according to the WAP Forum. Among other things, the latest version of WAP supports "WAP push," which allows a wireless device user to receive news alerts without being asked, as well as other services. On Wednesday, three of the world's top four handset makers--Nokia, Ericsson and Motorola--said they plan to support the latest version in their next generations of handsets. WAP is a software language used to help mobile devices interact with the Internet.

George reminds value investors: "Fortunately, many of the factors...just aren't present in the market, and the other reason that investors seem to be down on the banks is they sort of expected the Fed to raise interest rates a little faster than they have. And the banks do better when interest rates are rising because they have wider margins on their loans, but I think the Fed will gradually raise rates to we will see profits improve, and so I think this downturn is really temporary."

Has it been a blessin...
.. in disguise?
Meaning this transfer window we didn't get any star players..
So it's saved us money and the youngsters get a chance to prove themselves.
So the likes of Morgan, Sterling.. will get the chances to play in the 1st team than they otherwise wouldn't have.
Maybe these kids will surpass our expectations and we won't need to buy in January?Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
Have you been drinking armchair? Of late you seem to making more and more sensible comments!
I think this is the only way we can look at things now, because it just is, what it is. By January we should be able to tell whether the kids can cut it now or if they show signs that they ever will, that is a luxury not often afforded on youngsters at our club. I look forward to seeing Adam Morgan get a run of the bench and in the cups.

Hobs...I think its marvellous that we have ben FORCED to use our kids ! To a chorus of boos from the Usual-Suspects Ive been advocating getting the talented kids we have in there for a season now.All the GREATS in our game debuted at a young age showed there value and established themselves quickly...its total nonesense that players should be nursed along till they are about 23 before making debuts as starters.
Im hoping Pacheco gets his chance with a run of starts have high hopes for this kid and have no idea why we were trying to loan him out to some club in Spain ? Also what was BR doing talking about Loaning Rahim Sterling out before regular season opened ...doesnt say a great deal for his judgement of our kids' talent does it ? I doubt very much that had he not been let down so badly by the owners he would have been so ready to give our kids the chances they look like they might get now.
I do believe that BR is on a brief from the owners to run a very small squad on a tight wage budget...nothing wrong with keeping wages in check imo but you are flying on a wing and a prayer with no real depth in u squad if we have a spate of injuries we could find ourselves far from top 4 and battling to stave off relegation.
Posted something similar on my thread. Possibly but we'll still need to buy come January which in itself isn't good because everybody knows what we need and the January market is always inflated anyway.
A better question would be would Carroll be recalled. My feeling is no as I honestly don't think he'll play for us again. While he did well in his first West Ham game it was all done with his head. No where near the game that we will hope to play under Rodgers so it's all about getting what ever we can back financially. Yet another bad deal we've done.

Productivity and design Mac apps I use every week (or thereabouts) ... and apps I don't
It's pretty safe to say I spend 12 hours or so a day on my Mac — or a Mac. So I thought I'd document, if not the what of the check I'm doing, then the how. Here they are. I tried to break them down by category, because nobody can really use a laundry list of 20 or 50 or 100 things presented in a blog post, just laid out there as if it were helpful.
Excuse me for a side rant:
Less is more. Please accept this! I'm not channeling Samuel Beckett here, to say the least. Less! Seems like everyone makes Top X lists these days. 35 this. 50 that. 100 the other thing. Maybe they're link-bait posts. It must be effective, because they're everywhere. But why is it that nobody seems willing or able to parse through the datamass and recommend a useful number? For example, how is the "Top 100 Tutorials" post supposed to be more useful than the "Top 5 Tutorials"?
Anyway, here are apps I find useful. Mayb you will, too.
Communications, Connectivity, Community
Dropbox — Technically not so much a Mac app as a software-as-a-service app, Dropbox is my new favorite way to share and back up certain files on my Mac. This is what MobileMe was supposed to be. Dropbox is cross-platform, too.
Mail.app — I've tried many email apps of the years, and I keep coming back to Mail.app. The others range from teh suck to leaky resource hogs to head-scratch-inducing huh? Hawkwings has nice info that makes Mail.app really not absolutely terrible.
Tweetdeck — I was using Tweetdeck for my desktop Twittering, but when I realized it was consistently missing tweets by my favorite group-focused friends, I went looking for something else. So I tried Seesmic, but it has the same problem. Tweetie doesn't seem to have decent workflows for someone following a lot of people. So Tweetdeck it is ... until I find something better, which I hope is soon.
Skype — I rarely use Skype for calls, but we use it at work for IM. It's handy because it takes no centralized setup, effectively drills through most firewalls when traveling, and encrypts the messages, making it reasonably safe for things like passwords. I just wish it didn't draw so much in resources.
Colloquy — I've had some strange buggy experiences in the past with Colloquy, but for now it's working adequately for me. #drupal et al. are my daily background channels.
Snackr — This has become my favorite RSS reader, especially since NetNewsWire jumped the shark.
Safari — Lately Firefox has gotten to be just too slow and cumbersome for me, so I've relegated it to second browser status and shifted to Safari for my primary browsing. This would not have been the case if it weren't for Glims, which does some nice usability-improving enhancement to the Safari UI.
Firefox — There still is no better browser for web development itself. While Safari's Developer Tools are handy, the plugins available to Firefox (including Firebug, Web Dev Tools, and a few others) make it the go-to browser when analyzing and developing a website ... or any browser-based system.
Fluid — This is a nifty app that makes dedicated web browsers for specific sites you designate. I use it for Google Calendar, the mediocre CRM service we use, the mediocre ticket- and time-tracking system we use, and our own Client Support Center. Based on Safari, it keeps a light footprint on the computer resources and makes webapps somewhat easier to stomach.
Graphics Etc.
OmniGraffle — This has become almost too good to use for wireframing. Too often I find myself doing detail work rather than focusing on the information architecture and overall page layout. So lately I've started using....
Balsamiq Mockup — This is a cross-platform (via Adobe Air) desktop app for creating low-fidelity wireframes. Once you get used to the UI, which takes only an hour or so to get to where you don't have to think and ponder on how to do your next step, it actually becomes a very useful tool for fast wireframing without getting sidetracked by visual design temptations. A couple of nifty features I like are the ability to easily link a button or link to another Mockup wireframe (making clickable wireframes) and the ability to place "sketchified" images. Balsamiq also has versions for plugging into centralized systems, for collaboration.
Adobe Illustrator — Let's face it, for all of Adobe's problems, Illustrator is still a pretty nifty app. The gold standard of illustrator tools ... as long as you have the budget, and the illustrations don't have to move.
Adobe Photoshop — Another gold standard, though the specialized apps like Lightroom can compete nicely in more narrow use cases (like photo manipulation).
Preview — Again, the lightweight footprint makes this my favorite for viewing images and PDFs.
Adobe InDesign — In the end, this app does what you need it to do. Years back I preferred Quark. Since then, I've stuck with InDesign updates while Quark fell off of my usage patterns, so I have not tried the most recent Quark releases. My usage here is qualified by that context.
TextEdit — If I'm just reading a doc for content, I will open it in the lightweight TextEdit. It reads Word docs just fine (if you don't care about 100% accurate pagination, etc.).
Microsoft Word — It's amazing how such a crap word processor dominates the market today. Still behind where WordPerfect was 20 years ago, Word is the app of choice for most people dealing in documents. We end up using it because Open Office is even worse — and not quite compatible.
Microsoft Excel — Does for spreadsheets what Word does for wordprocessing. We use it for the same reasons, too.
Adobe Acrobat Pro — The UI is pretty awful. But when I need to combine PDFs, this is the only tool I know that gets the job done.
Keynote — There is only one. A while back, I used OmniGraffle to create slide shows. No longer. Keynote has its usability problems, but in general it's pretty powerful and easy to use.
Snapz Pro X — This is an excellent screencapture tool for presentations and screencasts. I use it all the time.
Screenflow — This is another popular screencasting tool, but I've found it to be rather counterintuitive. Maybe it's because I expect it to be more like a standard video system. Speaking of which....
Video Etc.
Final Cut — Being accustomed to more professional non-linear editors, FCP has taken some getting used to. While there are programmable hot keys, it feels too much like a mouse-driven interface to make it my first choice over Avid (or the dead-and-buried-by-Autodesk Edit) to make it anywhere near ideal. That said, the quality and flexibility required in today's media production and delivery needs has generally made the trade-off pretty much necessary. I need high-definition output.
Keeping it all straight
OmniFocus — Even though I am anything but a "Getting Things Done" acolyte — I'm more of a Franklin-Covey practitioner — this app, designed primarily for GTD approaches, is how I manage my to-do lists. The iPhone app is very handy, too.
Yojimbo — I love this tool. It's my kind of everything box, for notes, receipts, all kinds of things. Very handy, and syncs across the crappy (as previously mentioned) MobileMe. The freetagging is neat, but what makes it truly powerful is the search. It's instantaneous, and a great way to drill down to the thing you're looking for.
Apps I don't use (but have for some reason)
Pages — Every time I've tried using this app, I expect it to empower me to do more than it actually does. In the end, I think Pages has the limitations of InDesign combined with the limitations of Word, without holding a candle to either at what they do.
Numbers — This app just gets a shrug from me. I ask: Why? I have it because it came with iWork, which I get for Keynote alone.
Apps I wish I had, but haven't found
The perfect music finder, buyer, player, recommender — I hate that I have found no good way to discover new music. Pandora is okay, but it won't let me listen to what I want to listen to when I want to listen to it. I guess that's the licensing deal they have with the music studios. Radio sucks. Even Sirius XM is sucking more and more, now that they're hiring DJs to talk talk talk instead of play music. (Do I really need to hear some dimwit tell me that George Harrison's songs are "interesting"? If Sirius XM continues to make itself more like ClearChannel, I'm going to skip the subscription renewal coming up.) I'm stuck finding new music only through happenstance, hearing something and, if I'm fast enough, capturing it with Shazam on my iPhone. I want something on my desktop ... and not a website I have to go to, just a lightweight app that runs on my desktop.
Orli Yakuel posts on Music sites and apps that can be helpful, noting:
So readers' main concern was the companies' business model. You are right. A few of the services might make an exit, and most of them are probably not going to have one, and some are just for fun. I think music services can make money by being innovative enough to get it. Anyway, I don't want to get into the business model stuff too much, but I will tell you this: The Internet is too competitive, you may be succeed by just being simple, but you may also need to be sophisticated. The era where creating an application first, then two years later thinking how to make money from it, is bygone now, and companies will need to think how to make money sooner than later if they aim for it – This is where innovation comes in and usually wins.
Apps I haven't tried yet, but sound cool
Jing — Free screen capture. Three women blogged about this in the past few months.
Jing is a piece of free software for screencasting and screen capture. It can be downloaded for both Mac and PC from http://www.jingproject.com/.
Jing allows you to take a picture of anything on your screen. You can then annotate your still image and add objects like arrows.
Once you have downloaded Jing, a 3-armed 'sun' – which you use to activate the program – will appear at the top of your screen. If you"d prefer, you can drag it to the side of your screen, and you can also set it in Preferences so that it doesn't automatically load when you open your computer.
Say you teach online, and you want to show your students how to navigate Blackboard for their first time, for example:
1. Download Jing
2. Register for (gives you free access to server space)
3. Open it up
4. Record yourself navigating Blackboard (for example)
5. Upload your creation to the Jing server with one click
6. A web address (url) is instantly created and sent to you
7. Send the url to your students and/or embed it in your course
Sounds like something to check out.

Tree charter
Charter for Trees, Woods and People
We are leading a call to create a Charter for Trees, Woods and People that will redefine the relationship between trees and people in the UK for the future.
At the start of 2015 we invited organisations from across the conservation, environmental, business and social sectors to join a call for a new charter that will bring trees and woods back into the centre of public consciousness and political decision-making in the UK.
More than 40 organisations have answered the call, and have been working with us to create a national moment for woods and trees, and a legacy of lasting change for the relationship between trees, woods and people.
The final charter will be launched in November 2017 – the 800th anniversary of the 1217 Charter of the Forest.
Become a Charter Champion
We are seeking Charter Champions in communities who will act locally to ensure that everyone in the UK has a chance to play their part in defining the future of woods and trees in the UK. You'll get training, support and opportunities to apply for funding for local events, activities and projects that bring your community together around a celebration of local woods and trees.
Become a Charter Champion today
Share your tree story
The charter will be rooted in stories and memories that show us how trees have shaped our society, landscape and lives. We need you to share your story with us, to help us create a charter that reflects the true meaning of our trees and woods to the people of the UK.

With the new Smurfs 2 movie in theaters this summer, The Smurfs Whirl and Twirl Clumsy Game from Pressman Toy offers Smurfs fans a fun new way to interact with their favorite loveable and clumsy Smurf character and the rest of the gang. The game is for 2-4 players. Start the game by snapping and twisting the Clumsy center game piece into the center of the board game. Players then select two colored board games to play on. Shuffle the deck of cards and place them inside the box the Clumsy character is holding. Which ever player sitting closest to or behind Clumsy's tail will start the game by pressing it down. Clumsy will spin around and whomever he faces when he stops will remove the card that's popped out of the box he holds.
If the character and color match a character on your board place it on top of that character. If not, put the card to the side. If Clumsy stops on an empty section, place the card on that section. Unused cards come back into play when Clumsy spits out an action card.
There are five types of action cards instructing players to trade boards; pass your unused cards left, right, or in the direction of the player's choice; or take a card from any available extra cards.
The player who fills their playing boards first wins the game.
Part action and part matching, this is a game that will keep Smurfs fans entertained. The gameplay is simple to pick up and young kids will especially love making Clumsy spin around and spit out cards.
The Smurfs Whirl and Twirl Clumsy Game is for ages 5 and up.
Make sure the cards are placed all the way inside the box or else they won't pop out during the game.
If Clumsy runs out of cards, shuffle up all the unused cards and action cards, place them back into the box, and play continues.

I've seen a lot of code that uses associated objects to do cleanup-on-dealloc of an object.
e.g. NSObject+BlockObservation
Some of this code was written before ARC.
Now, browsing through the issues for ReactiveCocoa, I found this issue: https://github.com/ReactiveCocoa/ReactiveCocoa/pull/580
Dealloc disposables are now torn down in a swizzled
-dealloc, not as an associated object (which happens later, and can cause use-after-free errors).
So, can we continue to use associated objects for things like automated observation removal under ARC, or is such code broken under ARC?

Jake Heaps loses starting job as the Kansas Jayhawks win their first Big 12 game in 28 tries
The Jayhawks were back at home on Saturday with a new starter at quarterback and a more defined offensive scheme. Thanks to the changes, Kansas was able to win its first Big 12 game in 28 tries with a 31-19 victory over the Mountaineers of West Virginia.
After Jake Heaps and Montell Cozart were listed as co-starters on the depth chart all week, it was Cozart who got the call against the Mountaineers for his first start as a Jayhawk.
With Cozart under center, Kansas used a fierce rushing attack to challenge the West Virginia defense, and it couldn't have worked any better.
Behind the legs of running back James Sims, Kansas rushed for 315 yards and four touchdowns. Sims registered a career high 211 yards and three touchdowns on 22 carries.
The West Virginia offense struck first on the first drive of the game. It marched the ball 75 yards on six plays in just 2:52 and capped the drive off with a 12-yard pass from Paul Millard to Charles Sims to take a 7-0 lead.
It was then that the Jayhawks showed their new-found ground attack. The Kansas offense scored 31 consecutive points to blow the game wide open.
After a stalled drive ending with a 25-yard field goal by Ron Doherty cut the Mountaineer lead to 7-3, the KU defense and Sims took over.
The defense kept the Mountaineer offense off the scoreboard in 12 consecutive possessions as well as intercepting two passes that led to Kansas touchdowns.
As for Sims, he was able to break two runs of more than 60 yards, including a 68-yard run for a touchdown just before the end of the first half. He also scored touchdowns on runs on 2 and 3 yards as the Jayhawks opened up a big lead.
After three consecutive touchdowns by Sims, The last Jayhawks touchdown got scored by Brandon Bourbon on a 1-yard run. The touchdown was set up by a 28-yard interception return from linebacker Ben Heeney.
West Virginia scored two late touchdowns to make the score look more respectable.
On the day, Cozart completed just 5-of-12 passes for 61 yards and carried the ball 13 times for another 60 yards.
The win leaves the Jayhawks with a 3-7 record overall, including 1-6 in the Big 12. They will be back on the field next Saturday as Kansas will have another winnable game against the 1-9 Iowa State Cyclones.
It will be interesting to see what will happen with Heaps going forward. The system that Kansas ran on Saturday was much more suited to the dual-threat ability of Cozart, who is just a freshman.

49ers position-by-position breakdown: Tight ends
Matt Maiocco's 49ers Breakdown: Receivers
It would be a surprise if Vance McDonald does not immediately become the No. 2 tight end and see a lot of playing time. (AP)
49ers position-by-position breakdowns
1. Quarterbacks
2. Running Backs
3. Wide Receivers
4. Tight Ends
5. Offensive Line
6. Defensive Line
7. Outside Linebackers
8. Inside Linebackers
9. Cornerbacks
10. Safeties
11. Special Teams
Editor's note: Insider Matt Maiocco will be providing position-by-position breakdowns each day leading up to 49ers training camp. The rookies are scheduled to report on July 19, with the veterans scheduled to follow on July 24. Today Matt focuses on the tight ends.
Who they have: Vernon Davis, Vance McDonald, Garrett Celek, Demarcus Dobbs, MarQueis Gray
Who they lost: Delanie Walker
Looking back: The 49ers opened last season with four tight ends, including Dobbs, a two-way player who took No. 83 so he would not have to report as an eligible receiver any time he played offense. Dobbs played one snap on offense before sustaining a knee injury in the 12th game. After Dobbs went on injured reserve, the 49ers kept three tight ends on the roster. In the 49ers' final six regular-season games with Colin Kaepernick at quarterback, Davis accounted for just six receptions for 61 yards and no touchdowns. Davis finished the season with just 41 catches -- his lowest output since the season with Mike Martz as offensive coordinator. But the playoffs were a different story. Davis returned to being a big part of the passing game with 12 catches for 254 yards in three games. Walker was a big part of the 49ers' offense from beginning to end as the No. 2 tight end. He played nearly 57 percent of all offensive snaps. Walker caught just 21 passes (with a lot of drops) but found his niche in the offense as a blocker. The 49ers' personnel group with two tight ends became the team's base offense, especially after injuries to wide receivers Kyle Williams and Mario Manningham. Celek, who made the team as an undrafted rookie from Michigan State, played about 100 snaps, as well.

Overall outlook: Davis might return to being the 49ers' leading receiver (as he was in 2009 and 2010) with Michael Crabtree out for most of the season with a
torn Achilles. Kaepernick will look to pick up where he left off with Davis in the playoffs. Davis said he's not going into the season with any statistical expectations. "I don't know what to expect," he said. "I leave that up to the coaches. All I can do is do my job and do what they ask me to do." Davis can make a contribution even when he is not catching passes. Davis has a well-earned reputation as one of the best-blocking tight ends in the NFL. McDonald, a second-round draft pick from Rice, was the most outstanding rookie during the offseason program. However, McDonald must prove he's a capable in-line blocker to approach the level of playing time Walker received last season. At 6 foot 4, 267 pounds, McDonald has the size and strength to make a quick
adjustment from being used as mostly a slot receiver in college.
Camp competition: Davis, obviously, returns as the starting tight end. And it would be a surprise, based on his performance in the offseason, if McDonald does not immediately become the No. 2 tight end and see a lot of playing time. Dobbs will likely win or lose a roster spot based on his play along the defensive line and special teams. That likely leaves Celek and Gray to compete for one opening on the team. Gray played quarterback, receiver and running back at the University of Minnesota. His athleticism gives him an opportunity to provide a stiff challenge for Celek, who caught four passes for 51 yards as a rookie.
