Puerto Rico: Still Too Good to Be True
By Mark Nestmann • December 28, 2015
In the 30 years I've been writing about developments in the offshore world, I've been called a lot of things: "Insightful"… "thoughtful"… but also "misguided"… and (my personal favorite) "pessimistic."


text:
I'm importing Brazilian stock market data to a SQL Server database. Right now I have a table with price information from three kind of assets: stocks, options and forwards. I'm still in 2006 data and the table has over half million records. I have more 12 years of data to import so the table will exceed a million records for sure.
Now, my first approach for optimization was to keep the data to a minimum size, so I reduced the row size to an average of 60 bytes, with the following columns:
[Stock] [int] NOT NULL [Date] [smalldatetime] NOT NULL [Open] [smallmoney] NOT NULL [High] [smallmoney] NOT NULL [Low] [smallmoney] NOT NULL [Close] [smallmoney] NOT NULL [Trades] [int] NOT NULL [Quantity] [bigint] NOT NULL [Volume] [money] NOT NULL
Now, second approach for optimization was to make a clustered index. Actually the primary index is automatically clusted and I made it a compound index with Stock and Date fields. This is unique, I can't have two quote data for the same stock on the same day.
The clusted index makes sure that quotes from the same stock stay together, and probably ordered by date. Is this second information true?
Right now with a half million records it's taking around 200ms to select 700 quotes from a specific asset. I believe this number will get higher as the table grows.
Now for a third approach I'm thinking in maybe splitting the table in three tables, each for a specific market (stocks, options and forwards). This will probably cut the table size by 1/3. Now, will this approach help or it doesn't matter too much? Right now the table has 50mb of size so it can fit entirely in RAM without much trouble.
Another approach would be using the partition feature of SQL Server. I don't know much about it but I think it's normally used when the tables are large and you can span across multiple disks to reduce I/O latency, am I right? Would partitioning be any helpful in this case? I believe I can partition the newest values (latest years) and oldest values in different tables, The probability of seeking for newest data is higher, and with a small partition it will probably be faster, right?
What would be other good approachs to make this the fastest possible? The mainly select usage of the table will be for seeking a specific range of records from a specific asset, like the latest 3 months of asset X. There will be another usages but this will be the most common, being possible executed by more than 3k users concurrently.

Released: Nov 01st, 1993
Running Time: 73
Director: Rex Borsky
Company: Rosebud Video
Cast: Lana Sands, Rocco (I), Joey Silvera, Kitty Yung, Julian St. Jox, T.T. Boy, Janet Jacme, Tom Byron, Rossa
Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: Feature
Don't let the generic sound of this title keep you from stocking deeply; Deep Cheeks IV is a wall-to-waller with four extremely satisfying vignettes, where the humping is as real — and sweltering — as anything you're likely to witness. Brunette Rossa, slim and firm, with tiny tits, works up bona fide pussy foam as Rocco gives her a rim job; she jerks him off, sliding him in and out of her cooze for a drenching facial — after which he stays hard and fucks her again!
Licking Janet Jacme's chocolate gams up and down, T.T. Boy fucks her standing up, then brings in Julian St. Jox for an astounding d.p./double orgasm and re-plunge up her bootie. Fetching is the word for Kitty Yung, done up in crotchless pantyhose, knee-high boots and a sexy red velvet dress, which soon becomes history. After a superb oral appetizer, Tom Byron slo-w-ly pushes his spring roll up her poo poo platter (in a lovely penetration shot) vigorously spurting sweet 'n sour.
The look of pain/pleasure/astonishment on Lana Sands' face as Rocco and Joey Silvera delve into her nether regions is both captivating and incendiary to behold; a double-dripping whammy to her face makes up for lack of a decent "P" shot. This is one lewd, arousing vid with masterful angles and editing. Each scene itself is nomination material.

Mageia 2 Release Details Revealed
After an extensive discussion with the community on the Mageia developmental mailing list, Anne Nicolas revealed the results concerning Mageia release and support cycles as well as the release schedule for Mageia 2. The consensus was to use basically the same cycle used in Mageia 1.
Three proposals where given for discussion:
Proposal 1:
6 months release cycle -> 12 months life cycle
( Fedora, Ubuntu, Mandriva < 2010.1 && Mandriva != 2006.0 )
Proposal 2:
9 months release cycle -> 18 months life cycle
( ~ opensuse and the one we used for Mageia 1 )
Proposal 3:
12 months release cycle -> 24 months life cycle
( Mandriva > 2010.1 )
Since there are pros and cons to each, a lengthy discussion followed. Nicolas, former Director of Engineering with Mandriva, favored Proposal 2 based on her experience with Mandriva. The pros of Proposal 2 include releasing in-between other popular distribution's releases in order to stand out and not be lost in the news behind others such as openSUSE, Ubuntu, or Fedora. This tends to be a disadvantage as well since it is not in sync with GNOME or KDE releases and sometimes falls on or near holidays.
Proposal 1 can offer better hardware support and more up-to-date software, but the tight schedule can lead to more stress and pressure and possibly result in less quality assurance. While Proposal 3 allows users longer between upgrades, it can also make these upgrade more risky due to bigger changes. It also can cause hardware support lag. Probably the worse disadvantage for a new project is more time between being in the spotlight.
So, Proposal 2 was chosen. The developmental cycle will be nine months and each release will be supported for 18. In addition, the new release schedule was posted. Development has already begun and an initial alpha will be released November 16. The Final Release will come on April 4, 2012.
The full schedule is:
● Alpha 1 : 16/11/2011
● Alpha 2 : 14/12/2011
● Beta 1 : 20/01/2012
● Versions freeze : 06/02/2012
● Artwork freeze: 10/02/2012
● i18n freeze: 10/02/2012
● Beta 2 : 14/02/2012
● Releases freeze : 06/03/2012
● Final Release: 04/04/2012
Some of the technical aspects being discussed include an easier installation. Developers wonder if some additional screens and choices can be hidden from users while giving users a choice about non-free and tainted media. Another idea is to finally give users a "Back" button during the install. A long time complaint with Mandriva, and now Mageia, is that if a user clicks "Next" and changes their mind about something, the only way back is to reboot and start all over. This will be a most welcome addition. Another long awaited option being considered is a 64-bit LiveCD.
The system itself will likely feature Linux 3.0, GCC 4.6, Python 3, and RPM 4.9. systemd is also being discussed. Many distributions are switching to systemd, so the prospect is not so radical anymore as the kinks are being ironed out. Another bold idea is to replace the current synthesis package metadata handling to an XML-based solution. Some think this will bring a speed increase.
In the area of desktop environments, it appears Mageia 2 will feature KDE 4.7 and GNOME 3.2. There is also talk of replacing the attractive IaOra theme with an Oxygen-like theme. Let's hope it's from scratch and doesn't come with the NVIDIA conflicts found in Oxygen currently. "More games - any kind of games, just more of them" is a fun idea being discussed. New Kdm/Gdm screens, new icons, and codenames are also on the table.
As an aside, our old friend Beranger is currently providing third party applications for Mageia 1. Interestingly, he seems to think Linux 3.0 is a big mistake for Mageia.
Susan Linton is a Linux writer and the owner of tuxmachines.org.
I do not understand it
I do not understand it either. Seems somewhat superfluous.
a commendable project
This is a worthy project - It looks like the Mageia community really have their act together and I applaud them. I'm glad Mandriva was forked.
Thank for your information
What a completely useless article.
C'mon, LJ. Really!
He's not only packaging software for mageia but he is using KDE4! And he is even submiting bug reports!
Yup. Same thing here!
Yup. Same thing here!
me too, but then ...
it gives one another opportunity to contribute to Google's search statistics ;-)

Don't make another Ubuntu.
Don't make another Ubuntu.
Thanks for mentioning, but it needs a correction
For Mageia Cauldron (cooker), not for Mageia 1!
(Cauldron has already some major updates in terms of KDE4, GNOME3 and the corresponding libs.)

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

European stocks were oversold on the Brexit risk, which will actually take a while to materialize, says Riedel Research Group's David Riedel. » Read More
Hungary's government has raised a lot of eyebrows among investors since it came to power in May 2010.
With the Swiss National Bank setting a ceiling for the Swiss franc's appreciation against the euro, the need for new safe havens has become acute, and the Czech Republic, with its strong economy and stable currency, is emerging as a contender.
Central and Eastern Europe is still a place where investors can make money but they have to choose their sectors and stocks carefully, emerging markets specialist investor Mark Mobius told CNBC.com in an interview.
Central and Eastern Europe have been known as a turbo-charged version of Western Europe: when Western economies merely grow, the Eastern European ones boom. When things are bad in the West, they're awful in the East.
CNBC's Michelle Caruso-Cabrera reports on the meeting in Poland between Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and European finance ministers. Weighing in on what the summit means for global investors, with Louise Cooper, BGC Partners market analyst; CNBC's Steve Liesman and Simon Hobbs.
A collapse of Europe's monetary union would likely lead to a breakup of the European Union as a whole, posing significant risks to the region and even raising the possibility of war in the long term, Poland's Finance Minister told CNBC.
In 2008, Eastern Europe was in the throes of a major financial crisis. Burdened with public and private debt, Hungary, Latvia and Romania had to be bailed out by the IMF; they faced severe austerity measures and high unemployment. Fast forward three years and Eastern Europe seems in much better shape, while the West faces the most serious financial challenge since the establishment of the European Union.
Worries about Western Europe have spilled into countries in Central and Eastern Europe and the region's fate is tightly linked to that of its main exporting market, Wike Groenenberg, head of CEEMEA strategy at Citi, told CNBC on Wednesday.
The won is wafting close to new highs, but the greenback still has the blues. Time for your Earth Day FX Fix.
While periphery euro zone countries are drowning in a sea of debt and investor reluctance, Eastern Europe – which two years ago sent shockwaves through markets – is now shining away from the limelight.

Morro Bay
I'm not a zombie person. I've never watched or read The Walking Dead, and I don't think I've seen any zombie movies. Dawn of the Dead? Day of the Living Dead? Warm Bodies? I think those are some zombie movies, right? Dunno. Haven't seen them.
I have sat by and watched the zombie craze in board games (and other media) build up to a fever pitch. Sure, I bought Zombie Dice, but it's hard to consider that a "zombie game".
It's not that I hate zombies. Well, I guess I would hate them if they were trying to smash their way into my house. I just have never really understood the strong appeal they seem to hold with so many people.
But imagine my surprise when I rearranged my bookshelf this weekend, and discovered that zombie games now comprise over 7% of my collection! (see footnote 1).
Ok, so confession time: On a whim, my wife and I tuned into the pilot episode of iZombie a couple years ago. And we really enjoyed it. Much to our surprise, it has held up well, and after 2 full seasons, it's still one of the very few TV shows I actually make an effort to watch. Perhaps my icy heart has started to warm up to the cold ones after all.
My zombie games are:
Zombie Dice - light push-your-luck fun. Generally I prefer Martian Dice, but ZD is a bit lighter, so it's nice to have both. It's basically an abstract, but the pasted-on zombie theme works well as far as helping the rules make sense.
Dead Panic - light tower defense (with an escape rush at the end). I enjoyed Castle Panic, but traded it away because it was too light. Then I got it again because the Castle Panic: The Wizard's Tower expansion made it interesting again. But it's still light, so mostly it sits on the shelf.
Dead Panic is quite a bit more interesting than CP. First, I'll mention that I ignore the "if you die, you turn against the group" rule. I pretty much only play 2-player, and it's more fun for us to just call it a loss as soon as someone dies.
I love the narrative arc in this one. Defend the cabin long enough for survivors to show up with radio parts. Gather the parts, assemble the radio, and call for help. Then, around the time the cabin is filling up with the horde, try to rush through/around them to get out to the van, to escape. Awesome sauce.
The line-of-site and combat rules are slightly more complex than I would prefer in a family game like this, but they are manageable. I love the rush of being (nearly) overrun, but my wife finds it stressful, so I haven't actually gotten to play this one much. Yet.
Rise of the Zombies! - Brutal thematic card-based game. I heard about this a while back, but only became interested and got it this year. I love the way item, skill, and location cards work, and I like the ways that the players can help each other out.
But it can be brutal. I have already taken the easiest mode offered by the official rules, and houseruled it to be quite a bit gentler. And I still got crushed in my last couple solo attempts. Either I'm going to have to improve my skill, or I'll have to invent an even easier mode. My wife hates to feel like a game is hopeless. We would rather win 90% of our co-ops than lose 90% (with the ideal being to win around 50-75%).
So the jury is still out on this one. I want to play it with a friend a couple times before unleashing this zombie apocalypse on my wife.
Run, Fight, or Die! (with Run, Fight, or Die! Expansion Pack 3) - Light dice game that is surprisingly thematic. The price tag and mixed reviews kept me away from this one for a while, but I picked it up in a recent math trade. I'm only interested in this one as a co-op, which is why this expansion was necessary.
Based on 2 plays, this one seems like a winner. Sure, the dice can be fickle, and the card draws can be swingy. But it's a quick, cinematic game, so those are reasonable attributes. I rarely think minis are worth the extra cost, but I have to admit that having 20 zombie figures coming toward you on the first-person perspective board does add a lot to the flavor.
I love the personal goals in the co-op mode. Last game, I was "Just plain ole crazy", and near the end of the game, one bad die roll would have caused me to shoot (and kill) the other player. It's just fun.
I should probably also mention that Escape: Zombie City is on my wishlist. My main hesitations are a) my wife doesn't enjoy real-time games as much as I do, and b) the box is big. I have small shelves, so a game has to be REALLY good to justify a big box.
So there you have it. Apparently I have become "one of them". A Z-man. A zedder. A fan of the grey and green. A brain-eater beater.
I guess I can live with that.

I like this dishwasher. I don't need a dishwasher with options that will never be used. This dishwasher is one of the last traditional type dishwashers on the market today. The sound level is not bad, but needs to be improved. The insulation surrounding the dishwasher needs to be thicker and attached to the outside of the tub better. Overall this is a good unit that cleans Great! I am very happy with my purchase.

Standard unit; nothing exciting.
The installer was pleasant, professional and efficient. This dishwasher should not be marketed as "quiet."

Italian Tartufo
Total Time
Prep 30 mins
Cook 5 hrs
"Tartufo" is Italian for truffle. The original "truffles" were created just after the French revolution by French chefs and were chocolate confections made to resemble like their prized fungi cousin in the Perigord region of France. These sweet confections were given at Christmas time as gifts. Sometime around the Victorian era is when the frozen truffle came about when the idea of molding ice creams into various shape like flowers, fruit, and other foods became popular. It has been only during recent times that ice cream "truffles" or "tartufos" have made a renaissance, of sorts. Typically, in Italy, a tartufo is a vanilla ice cream ball that has a cherry and some nuts in the center. The ball is then dipped in chocolate and can be covered with nuts or chocolate shavings. (Cook time is Chilling time)
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 cup sugar
- 2⁄3 cup cocoa
- 2 teaspoons instant espresso or 2 teaspoons coffee
- 1⁄3 cup water
- 4 egg yolks
- 10 maraschino cherries
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons rum

- Soak cherries in rum.
- Sift sugar; cocoa, and instant coffee together and place in a heavy sauce pan.
- Add the water and mix well.
- Bring to a boil and cook until everything is well mixed.
- While syrup is cooking, whip the egg yolks until light and fluffy.
- Reduce the speed of the beaters to the lowest level and add the hot syrup in a continuous fine stream.
- Continue beating until the mixture is thick and forms a ribbon pattern when the beater is pulled away.
- Chill well. (about an hour).
- Whip the cream with the 2 tablespoons of rum until stiff.
- Fold into the chocolate mixture.
- Fold in the chopped chocolate.
- Arrange foil lined paper cups in a muffin pan.
- Fill each cup 1/3 of the way full.
- Place a cherry in each cup then fill the rest of the way.
- Freeze at least 4 hours (preferably overnight).
- Before serving pipe whipping cream on top if desired.
- It will keep in the freezer for about a month wrapped tightly in aluminum foil.

My six year old wanted me to make this because he had a tartufo once in a restaurant. I was a bit sceptical not because of the recipe, but because ice cream recipes just don't work for me! This recipe not only worked for me, but I made it as a treat for my son's 7th birthday and all the kids wanted more! Great recipe, thanks for posting it.
WHOA! Is this a Rich dessert, but it's wonderfully amazing too! I made just 2 little changes to this recipe. 1st instead of using the muffin tins I used a semi circle mold that I had on hand (they look so pretty rounded, have to see if someone took pictures) and 2nd I coated these little darlings in chocolate, first I put the melted chocolate down on the cookie sheet (that was lined in parchment.. no mess!) and I placed the tartufo on top of the chocolate and then spooned more chocolate over them for a nice even coating, Put them in the freezer until it was ready for service and then a drop of whipped cream and a cherry on top, they barely melted at all and looked just as good as they tasted... Magnifico Ashbabe. Made this recipe for my nephew's Christening Party and it was a Super Hit!!
This is quite a sweet treat. I do think it would be better suited to being served in a lovely glass goblet rather than foil muffin cups. It has much more of an icecream texture than the heavy/thick truffle texture I expected because of setting up in muffin or cupcake cups. It was starting to melt even as I took the photo's so really would not hold up to being served this way for a dinner party, which is more when I would serve such a dessert. I loved the crunch of the coarse chopped chocolate. I used a 85% dark chocolate and it was perfect with the creamy sweetness of the main part.

Hm, I wrote a review on the Asheville's Only and realized that the new name of the club is Xcapades. I saw a review from someone promoting "Treasure Club". I have been to both of these clubs. While the TC definitely has more girls, I found them to be distant and uninviting. Plus the club was half the size of the other place. My ventures at Xcapades was more inviting. The staff are all very nice, and while they don't have many dancers, the ones they do have are very attractive and nice. I didn't feel pressured at this club. I found the drink prices to be reasonable as well, and what a selection! I think they have every single liquor available. It was a bit overwhelming.

Kyoto Doubts Prompt Japan to Hedge Its CO2 Bets: Energy Markets
Japan, the world's fifth-biggest greenhouse-gas polluter, is building a new emissions market as the widest carbon-trading spreads in four months signal the 1997 Kyoto climate agreement will be scrapped.
Credits for 2012 in the United Nations market, set up after the Kyoto accord, traded at 3.95 euros ($5.50) less than those in the European Union's cap-and-trade program as of Nov. 3. That's the biggest difference since June 14 and compares with 2.39 euros at the start of the year.
Traders are selling UN credits on concern they will have little value after 2012, when the Kyoto targets expire, as they speculate the U.S. and China will fail to reach agreement on new limits being considered at this month's climate summit in Cancun, Mexico. That's prompting Japan to build an emissions-trading system independent of the UN, through individual agreements with other nations.
"If negotiations are going to be stuck in a quagmire, the best thing is for countries to set up bilateral agreements," said Anthony Hobley, a partner and climate specialist at Norton Rose LLP, a London-based law firm. "Bilaterals are a lot easier to negotiate," he said in an Oct. 22 interview.
Japan has earmarked about $4 billion for projects from saving forests in Brazil to building a nuclear plant in Vietnam in an attempt to offset its own emissions and fulfill a pledge to cut greenhouse gases by 25 percent in the 30 years through 2020, according to the trade ministry.
Biggest Emitters
UN credits for December 2012 have fallen 18 percent to 11.39 euros on London's ICE Futures Europe since trading at their 2010 peak on May 3, leaving them little changed this year. Comparable EU futures are up 9 percent to 15.21 euros on ICE. The spread, traded as a separate contract on ICE, widened 3.2 percent today to 3.83 euros.
Talks to extend Kyoto's emission targets to the U.S. and China, the world's biggest emitters, failed at the 2008 summit in Poznan, Poland, and again a year later in Copenhagen. The Kyoto Protocol set emission caps for 38 countries through 2012, establishing the UN Clean Development Mechanism, or CDM, as a worldwide carbon market.
"There's no reason to stick to the Clean Development Mechanism," said Haji Watanabe, head of Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities Co.'s emissions-reduction unit in Tokyo. The firm, which has 90 greenhouse-gas projects, may seek some credits under Japan's program instead of the UN's, he said.
Tapping Rich Countries
The UN market was designed to encourage developed countries to pay for emission reductions by awarding tradable offset credits known as Certified Emission Reductions, or CERs, to use against their targets.
While CERS can now be used for compliance in the EU, which runs the world's largest carbon market, the 27-member bloc may exclude some of them from 2013. ICE Futures Europe doesn't list UN credits beyond March 2013.
David Abbass, a Bonn-based spokesman for the CDM, says it's too early to write off the UN system.
"Parties have said that the CDM should continue, but that it can be improved and scaled up," he said in an interview on Nov. 3 "The fact that several countries, including Japan, recognize a need to establish domestic trading systems just reaffirms the importance of a market approach in combating climate change."
Japan isn't alone in seeking one-on-one agreements. The EU is considering importing credits under a deal with Chinese steelmakers, according to its website. California, the biggest U.S. state, also cleared the way last month to create its own offset credits starting in 2012, with proposed purchases from countries including Mexico and Canada.
Falling Emissions
Japan's former Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama pledged in September 2009 to provide $15 billion in climate aid for developing nations. The country has spent about $5.3 billion so far, Foreign Minister Seiji Maehara said on Sept. 25. Its current target is contingent on similar reductions from other developed nations, Hatoyama said.
Japan's companies produced 17 percent less carbon dioxide in 2009 compared with 1990 levels, according to a report released today. The country's 34 largest industries emitted 422 million tons of CO2 after taking into account carbon offsets, the country's business lobby, Nippon Keidanren, said in the report. Corporate emissions are expected to average 8.2 percent lower than 1990 levels between 2008 and 2012, it said.
Japan agreed to start talks on possible bilateral offsets with India on Oct. 25 and Vietnam on Oct. 31, according to the foreign ministry. Negotiations have begun with Thailand, the Philippines, Indonesia and Laos.
'Faster and Flexible'
"We'd like to create a scheme that can co-exist with the UN's CDM but one that is faster and more flexible," Keisuke Murakami, director of global environmental affairs at Japan's trade ministry, said in a Nov. 1 interview.
Japan Bank for International Co-operation is overseeing about $4 billion of climate investments under a program called Green, which could feed into a bilateral market. The bank may also help finance some of the 33 projects under consideration in the nation's bilateral programs, according to Takashi Hongo, head of environmental finance at the Tokyo-based lender.
"If there is no global regime, integration of the bilateral programs will be desirable," Hongo said in an Oct. 29 interview. "We would like to keep a first right of refusal to get credits" as Japan starts spending, he said.

Best Spots to Test Out Daring Design Choices
Like licorice and red wine, you'll never know if you really like something until you try it.

8 Reasons You Should "Adopt" a Dalmatian Dot Print Today
I would like to submit a nomination for best pattern of all time: Dalmatian. The black and white print has enough contrast to make a bold statement. And yet, it retains the natural, organic appeal of its animal print cousins like cheetah and leopard. But it's more modern and graphic, somehow. And the fact that it's essentially a riff on polka dots means that it's crazy versatile. So, yeah, best pattern of all time.
This Bathroom Goes Bold With a Matching Print on Literally Everything

While they were probably the most popular more than 100 years ago, we've found a few examples of portières styled in a more modern way.

Entering Brian & Kerry's loft, the first thing you see is the courtyard. It's hard to miss an entire wall of windows that reaches up to the 18-foot ceilings. "In the winter, it's like living in a snow globe," Brian reminisces, "...when it actually snows." Which is not the case on the day I visit, another unusually warm Saturday in New England. The effect, however, is still impressive. What the loft lacks in square footage, it makes up for in light.
Unexpected Decor Mix: The Unconventional Classic
Sometimes in the way we conceptualize decor, there can be a push-pull relationship between classic and unconventional. But many of the most successful spaces mix these two sides of the spectrum. Unconventional elements can make a more traditional room seem alive, while classic elements can make an unconventional room seem livable. Here are some sample spaces that execute this balance well, and here's why they work.

Anglesboro or Anglesborough (Irish: Gleann na gCreabhar, historically anglicized as Gleanagruer) is a small village at the foot of the Galtee Mountains, in south-east County Limerick, Ireland.[1] The nearest town is Mitchelstown in County Cork approximately 12 kilometres away.
It is a small community with one shop, a National school,a Catholic church and a community hall to service the local population. It is situated in a primarily agricultural area.
Notable people[edit]
Liam Lynch (1893-1923)- Irish Republican and military leader.
Lynch was Chief of Staff of the Irish Republican Army between March 1922-April 1923. He was born at Barnagurraha and went to school at Anglesboro National School. As a leading military commander in the War of Independence, he opposed the Anglo-Irish Treaty on the grounds that it dis-established the Irish Republic proclaimed in 1916 and he assumed the position of Chief-of-Staff of the anti-treaty IRA called the "Irregulars". He was killed in a skirmish with Free State forces on the Knockmealdown Mountains in County Tipperary on 10 April 1923. His death was seen by many as the event which ended the civil war.[2]

A teen was taken to the hospital after a vehicle overturned near Lansing, according to a report from the Leavenworth County Sheriff's Office.
The accident was reported at 3:40 p.m. Saturday at 155th Street and 4-H Road.
A 17-year-old Platte City, Mo., boy was driving south on 155th Street in a 1991 Isuzu Rodeo. He attempted to turn east onto 4-H Road. He lost control of the vehicle because of excessive speed, according to the report.
The sport utility vehicle went into a ditch on the south side of 4-H Road and rolled over once.
The driver was transported by Leavenworth County EMS to Saint John Hospital for a possible head injury.
There also were two 15-year-old boys and an 18-year-old man in the vehicle. One of the passengers suffered a small scratch to one of his arms, but no other injuries were reported.

Cam Newton allegations raise questions
Every time we get excited about college sports, something like this seems to happen.
Originally Published: November 5, 2010By Johnette Howard | ESPN.com
So all of a sudden, the Cam Newton redemption story and the Cam Newton national championship chase story and the stirring tale of how Auburn quarterback Cam Newton could be the first-ever junior college transfer to win the Heisman Trophy are all in danger of being re-cast from something unique into one of the hoariest clichés in college football: the dirty recruitment story. And all faster than you can say "The going rate for a blue-chip college quarterback these days is $180,000?"

Performance of Variable Step Closed Loop Power Control in CDMA High Altitude Platforms Communication Channel
This paper evaluates the performance of variable-step closed loop power control algorithm for CDMA communication employing High Altitude Platforms (HAPs). In HAPs, the channel is predicted to have different characteristics compared to that in terrestrial. Users that are distributed within HAPs coverage will have different channel characteristics depending on their elevation angle. In this work, HAPs channel is modeled to follow Ricean fading distribution which K-factor is obtained based on experimental measurements. The variable-step power control algorithm is then computer simulated under such a channel to evaluate its performance.

Niagara Author Creating 'Money Smart Students'
Author and Blogger Brian Hostick has published his first book entitled 'How To Be A Money Smart Student'. The book gives new college students tips and tricks on how to survive and thrive financially as they move away from home for the first time.
As Brian says, "With escalating tuition fees, and external expenses continuously on the rise, today's students need all the help they can get to save money while living on their own as a full-time student". 'How To Be A Money Smart Student' gives teens information in a number of categories dealing with college life. Students get tips in areas such as Transportation, Groceries, Entertainment and Campus Life.
"Nothing in the book is really rocket science - but it's information which many teens wouldn't think about on their own", says Hostick. "Students can use the information to cut costs, and reduce the amount of money they need to save or borrow for their education."
The book is an extension of the Author's blog, http://www.moneysmartstudents.com. The website is a resource for students with helpful information and links to other websites students will find useful.
'How To Be A Money Smart Student' is available now on Amazon.ca and Amazon.com.
About the Author
While researching personal finance, Brian Hostick found a disturbing fact. Today's teens aren't getting very much formal education in regards to handling their money. This is leaving many new college students without the resources needed to survive on their own as they leave home for school, and control their own finances - many for the first time in their lives.
Hostick began the Money Smart Student program to give students a place to find information, and answer their questions regarding smart money management.
Brian Hostick is a married father of three teenage boys and resides in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada.

Deans said on Friday in South Africa that Cooper's surgery on loose cartilage in his knee had been delayed for a few days but he should be able travel in November "so long as he gets in and gets the operation done soon."
Deans said the delay was precautionary while some "grazes" on Cooper's problematic right knee, which he injured at last year's World Cup, healed.
Cooper's recovery from the surgery is expected to take four to six weeks, and the delay threatens his availability for the tour starting on Nov. 10 against France.
But Deans also said other injuries to regular starters meant the Wallabies were "going to have to function with a squad as opposed to a 15."

Mens Choker of Tiger Eye and Antiqued Bone
This men's choker of tigereye beads and antiqued bone has a sense of ruggedness. Antiqued bone beads form the basis of the uncomplicated design of this necklace. The beads have been tea dyed which makes the natural striations of the bone stand out and gives them a primitive flavor. I separated each of the bone beads with tiger eye disc beads, giving the necklace fluidity and movement as well as adding that famous tiger's eye iridescence. A barrel-shaped magnetic clasp in an antiqued gold shade completes the design.
The necklace measures 18 ½ inches in length. Tiger eye is a truly excellent stone which has been used in jewelry since ancient times. It was favored as a gemstone by Roman warriors because it was thought to have protective powers as well as being all-seeing. The stone has also been worn to strengthen convictions and self-confidence. These powerful qualities add to the rugged and elemental design of this necklace.
Please Note: The necklaces I create are my own designs. The gemstones I used to create this necklace are genuine, and the bone beads are hand-crafted. As such there may be anomalies in shape, size, and color.
Gender: Male, Age Group: Adult, Color: brown, Size: 18

Barton: "The Due Process Clause of The Constitution Came Out Of The Bible"
One of David Barton's standard tricks is simply to assert things as if they are undeniable facts without ever providing any explanation whatsoever.
He does it when he claims that the Bible has teachings on everything from the Capital Gains tax to the minimum wage, just as he does when asserts that ideas central to our system of government were simply plucked wholesale directly out of the Bible.
Nowhere does Barton ever provide any documentation to support his claims; he simply asserts them as facts.
Case in point is the recent addition to his standard presentation that the Due Process Clause and the Fourth and Eighth Amendments all came out of the Bible.
How Barton arrived at this discovery is never explained, but it is not stopping him from spreading it relentlessly, as he did during his recent appearance on Daystar's "Joni":
Notice Barton's repeated use of the vague phrase "they": they were put on trial; they were not allowed a jury; they didn't get an attorney; they wrote a book about trials.
Who are they? The Founding Fathers? Religious leaders? Some other group of people? Who knows, because Barton never bothers to say. Instead, he simply asserts that, based on the trial of Jesus and Paul, "they" decided to include the Due Process Clause.
Nor does Barton ever explain how these trials lead to the Constitutional prohibitions against double jeopardy, self-incrimination, excessive or cruel and unusual punishment or guarantees of a right to an attorney - he again just flatly asserts that it is so.
If Barton has actual evidence to support these claims, he apparently doesn't see a need to share it. And why would he? It is not as if the Religious Right audiences to whom he peddles his pseudo-history is ever going to call him on it.

|Subject: 2007 Annual Meeting Notes
|Date: 5/6/2007 12:49 PM
|Author: mhirschey
|Number: 129851 of 224949
I got home from the 2007 Annual meeting at a reasonable time last night, but was so exhausted that I decided to wait until this morning to post my thoughts and expressions. I've purposely not read any prior posts on the meeting so as to keep my perceptions independent.
1. The Borsheim's cocktail party on Friday night is getting better and better. Lots of food and lots and lots of free drinks were flowing. The music was good both inside the mall and in the tent. Business was brisk at the jewelry counters. Borsheim's benefits a great deal from the meeting trade, obviously.
2. Ancillary cocktail parties are growing and growing. Whitney Tilson and lots of others are using the Berkshire event as an effective marketing tool.
3. My most eager students were in line by 11:00 pm. Quite a group were there by 3:00 am. I slept in and didn't arrive until 4:30 am. Light rain kept down the number of early arrivals, so it was hard to judge the amount of interest among the "hard core," but I detect no slackening of interest.
4. There was a huge crowd at the meeting. 27,000 were in the Quest Center, including the adjacent AV rooms. Despite its size, it was a quiet crowd. Applause through out the meeting was subdued.
5. Nobody asked about a share split, which kind of surprised me actually. That's a "groaner" question most years. However, Buffett has converted a bunch of his shares from A to B in order to facilitate sales tied to gift giving. That's explicit recognition that the B shares have greater marketability. At this point, I see no point in the dual class structure.
6. The crowd seemed as interested as ever in the products offered in the Quest Exposition Center. Of course, the freebies are long gone, but there was lots of trade going on. Shareholders seemed as eager to buy See's Candies at ridiculously high p

Greeks Back Austerity Program
ATHENS—Most Greeks support their government's austerity program despite a planned public-sector strike, opinion polls showed.
Four separate polls over the weekend showed public support of more 60% for tough measures to fix the country's public finances, and some Greeks wanted even-stiffer overhauls. The polls also showed relatively little support for recent protests by farmers or for coming strikes by civil servants.
The polls come as Greece searches for ways to reduce its budget deficit. The government said late last year that the deficit would likely be equivalent to 12.7% of gross domestic product in 2009, double the previous estimate.
That news prompted ratings downgrades and a selloff in Greek government debt, which has pushed up the interest rate that the government has to pay. The decline in the value of government debt has sparked worries about the health of Greek banks, which are large holders of government debt. On Monday, bank stocks fell 6.8% on average, and the Athens stock exchange closed lower for the fifth straight day, down 3.9%, even as other European bourses reported gains.
Greece's problems have also sparked anxiety over some of Europe's other weak economies, such as Spain and Portugal.
Last week, Greece announced further measures to combat debt, including a freeze on public-sector wages. The measure is unpopular with public-sector workers, and their umbrella union is planning a 24-hour strike on Wednesday. But the weekend polls show that the government has public backing for its moves.
A poll in Sunday's To Vima newspaper reported 64.1% of respondents saying the government's reforms are in the "right direction."
Another Sunday newspaper, Proto Thema, said 54.6% voiced their support for a freeze in public-sector salaries. The paper said 60.6% of the public feel the government should have acted sooner.
A poll in the Saturday edition of financial daily Imerisia showed that 68.9% of the public think the austerity measures are necessary for the country to exit the crisis.

George takes the cake, and the child
7 comments:
George supposedly never had time for his daughter, Lucy. But what about his wife, Eve? They appear to have been married for a long time, and she seems a kind, loving person - so how was it possible for George not to see Lucy?
- 14 March 2010 at 09:05
I think we all thought George was going to be a villan but it turns out he is just a bombastic Grandad, a man used to getting his own way by fair means or foul. I think he thought he had messed up with his daughter, Lucy, and wanted to make amends through Simon by "giving him a good life". Peter has just given him all the ammunition by keep going back to the drink and who says he won't do it again, he is a bit of a loser. I hope this is not the end we see of Anthony Valentine because he has been great and I would like to see him and Eve popping up every now and again like Jack and Connie.

I think it was more to do with Lucy refusing to see George from what i got out of this.

George may well have been right to have his concerns about Peter/Simon, but the way he went about it was downright evil. I'm going to be gutted if he turns out to have gone soft/reconciles with Peter/Ken, as it looked very much like he was doing in the last episode - I hope he has further villainy up his sleeve. It'll be much more entertaining.
- 14 March 2010 at 13:59
- Peter said...
I can understand why George is doing this but behind even his wifes back shows just how determined and actually blinkered he has become.
He wasn't there for Lucy when she was little, that is established. Character wise his actios have actually been consistent and certainly not rash. Initially he was trying to help Simon indirectly by supporting Peter and Leanne. He ploughed a small fortune into the bar of course. Also he was very pushy about the private schooling and even (at such a late stage) paid for Peter's rehab treatment.
A lot of this was down to his enthusiasm at discovering he actually had a grandson of course. He desperately wants to play a very much active role in his upbringing (which i hope he still can).
His conflict with Ken was predictable but actually quite apt in many ways. It helped him get closer to Peter and thus to Simon. It also showed some of Ken's true colours that have exasparated Deirdre for so many years.
He showed a devious (or determined) side however, by manipuLAting Leanne when she very much needed support, in taking Simon away. After actually doing a much needed turn in having Simon over, he quickly abused this position and decided he could do a better job of caring for him.
This, as we know, is very short sighted. Particularly when you consider he was a struggling father himself, with demons, like Peter. He wasn't there for his own daughter. Did he not stop to think that his inherently selfish actions where not only to Simon's detriment but also forcing his own shortcomings as a father onto Peter as another?
I hope to see his relationship with Eve tested through this storyline and i also hope that they both become permanent additions to the cast.
So often with storylines like these, the character is introduced for the short term effect of the storyline, rather than long term to the benefit of the show. Stephanie Beacham being a good recent example.
A fantastic storyline. Consistent in its execution and in my view, a highlight of the rather underwhelming Kim Crowther era.
- 14 March 2010 at 16:16

Yeah, George can't "rest in peace" one day knowing how he abandoned his daughter, and has made it his quest to care for Simon.
This was a good storyline, yes. Although, I feel so bad for poor little Simon, hopefully he can resume a normal life after.

Any alternastive would be better for the child rather than living an a stinking smoke filled room above a bookie's with a hopeless alcoholic loser of a father.

AbstractThis Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project will develop a prepreg material that, while maintaining the advantages of a powder towpreg system, will eliminate the use of high price, finely ground powders. By generating fine particles in situ using aerosol formation from molten polymers two steps will be eliminated from the manufacturing process -- powder grinding and powder sintering, resulting in greatly reduced cost and complexity of the operation. Commercially, composite materials have an ever growing importance in the development of new technologies due to their inherent advantages over conventional materials. These include better strength-to-weight ratios than most metals, extreme corrosion resistance, and novel processing techniques, which will allow a variety of shapes not achievable by conventional means. However in many cases, the costs for fiber-reinforced composites is five to ten times higher than that of base metals like steel or aluminum. This project will make the composite material considerably more cost competitive.

I'm pretty much out of ideas. I'm not sure what's going on. I've installed this plugin on 3 other blogs with total success. Just to give you an idea, this is how my author page is set up:
<?php get_header(); ?>

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

<?php if ( have_posts() ) the_post();
get_template_part( 'loop', 'author' );
Instead of showing at the top of "content-left", the author's bio is appearing in "content-right", Recent entries section above the links. What determines where the block should be placed?
