Comments about 'More than just football: Alema Te'o promotes education, community with his All Poly Camp'
- Oldest first

The poly community in my opinion will be the number one strength of the Ute
football program going forward and is VITAL to our success in the Pac12.
We won't win most recruiting battles with USC or Oregon and no one is claiming we will.
We will however win most recruiting battles in Utah(as we've already done the past several years if you look at recruits who were offered by all 3 schools) and the Poly community needs to make up a big chunk of our base each year.
In Utah we're a little disadvantaged as you don't find a lot of the "speed" that is everywhere in Texas, Florida, California. So yes we need to continue to recruit texas and California hard.
I see the large Utah Poly community being a huge advantage to the Utes both in terms of compared to other Pac 12 schools and also compared to byu/usu.
The premier Poly kids will want to play for the premier program in the state.
And that is the Pac 12 University of Utah Utes

I think Chris B and Ducky are the same person.
While the poly players are certainly a large part of the Utah football equation, they are a large part of BYU's also and have been for a long time. The best poly name to come out of the U, IMO, is Christian Fuamatuma'afala.
Ed - take off your blue colored glasses. Utah has been to the exact same number of bowl games during the BCS period as the school to the south, 11. Now, if you want to compare the quality of those bowl games, the payoffs and the records - be my guest.

More drivel from those obsessed with BYU. No mention of the fact that Star wanted to go to BYU. And given the strength of BYU's defenses under Mendenhall (and given how a kid with no experience three years ago becomes a top-5 pick under him), I'd say that an objective viewpoint recognizes that a player with the physical tools will do at least as well at BYU as he would at Utah.

Good morning VegasUte,
My understanding of the situation is similar to that of JDL: Star committed to BYU of high school, but didn't qualify. Then, because of similar situations where BYU previously got burned offering quality players with questions academically out of JC, BYU chose not to offer Star. That Star in fact did well academically at the U has BYU coaches again reconsidering the risk/reward ratio, and they are taking some chances again out of JC.
I could be wrong on this--it wouldn't be the first time. But I believe the "Star wanted to go to BYU" view is correct.

Sorry, Chris B but you missed the point of the camp. It is to help the kids realize that they can use football to get a quality education, live a high value life, become a strong member of the community, the NFL may be a good goal but it is not the main focus. There are many good schools from which students can obtain a quality education. All three major schools Utah, BYU, and Utah State provide this opportunity.

@Chris B and your fans,
Its pretty sad how guys all care about Poly when only comes to football, you don't even consider them to be part of a community. that's all you care about, if those Polys don't do well I'm pretty sure you are gonna forget and don't even care. Only to make your Utes team better or something like that. Tell me how many of the Polynesian player didn't make it to the NFL and now have successful career that you know of I WANT YOU TO NAME THEM AND TELL ME WHAT THEY ARE DOING NOW...ESPECIALLY THOSE THAT WENT TO THE U.
K be real now these kids are just trying to make it better for them coming from the islands, coach Te'o in Camp didn't and i mean DID NOT TELL THESE KIDS TO GO TO THE UTES OR THE Y OK. HE PUSHED THEM TO BE A GOOD ADDITION TO THE COMMUNITY AND FOR THEMSELVES. I hope i make my points clear. And please know that us polynesians have it more than just football ok.

JDL and Passion - Star came out of JC in 2010. He had offers, coming our of
Snow, from Utah, BYU, Oregon State and Utah State. BYU's recruiter was
Brandon Doman. Not trying to be a Chris B on this one, but BYU DID have a
second shot at Star, and Star chose Utah. I'm sure the statement that Star
wanted to go to BYU is correct, but only as it relates to his recruitment out of
high school.

I suppose I could spend all day correcting the misinformation from Ute trolls in the comments in articles about BYU, but I just don't have time. So I'll just quickly point out to u25 that Steve Kaufusi has been a key member of the BYU coaching staff ever since he left Utah in 2002.

Good enough. As I said, I've been wrong before. I had heard enough over time about how BYU had soured on experiences with a couple of highly-rated JC players, defensive lineman specifically--Bernard Afutiti was one; can't remember the other one right now--that they chose not to take a second chance on JC lineman Star, who had already missed qualifying for them out of high school. The story line--again, heard many times--was that this mindset cost them when they saw Star do sufficiently well academically, and that they were now reconsidering the risks of offering a scholarship to someone who may well fail academically versus the help that player could give to the line if he managed to make it.

Pac has always been one of the biggest hypocrites in rap music. He lived like an arrogant asshole who wanted to solve everything with violence and intimidation. It was bound to catch up with him. It is sad he dragged BIG down with him.

The 38th annual MayDay Parade and Festival embraces transition
A mother and son paint their dragon mask
Photo by Kathy Easthagen
What would it be like if we moved away from fossil-fuel dependency toward a sustainable future? That's the crux of the "transition-town" movement, which has been gaining steam since the mid-2000s, though its roots are much older than that. It's also the theme of this year's MayDay Parade and Festival, presented by In the Heart of the Beast Puppet and Mask Theatre (HOBT), which has incorporated sustainability into its parade and ceremony by featuring an all new transition town called "Bloomingtown."
In Minneapolis, and at In the Heart of the Beast, transition-related work has been going on for many years. Recently some local initiatives have identified with the movement specifically, such as Transition Longfellow, while others hold up transition principals without directly associating with or calling themselves by the name, including urban gardening ventures and other community-based work.
Brent Harring sculpts the shape for a dragon head

Last summer, many community members said that MayDay could be a grand addition to the transition movement. So HOBT has been working with community organizers to form three different teams, focused on energy, food justice, and transportation. The hope it that the event won't just be one day of raising awareness, but rather something that can build and grow.
MayDay Workshop

For the parade, the theme is based on a series of questions that HOBT asked community members, including "what do you envision the future to look like?"
NOTE: Due to rain, the festival has been moved to Sunday, May 13
The Tree of Life Ceremony occurs approximately at 3:30 p.m.
The festival continues until sunset

"PUERTO BERMUDEZ" Puerto Bermůdez by RudoElCojonudo
Puerto Bermůdez Travel Guide: 5 reviews and 13 photos
Puerto Bermudez, in the Peruvian Amazonas, could be the perfect gate to enter the big jungle.
If you are thinking about comming here prepare yourself for a hard journey. First of all 6 hours by bus from Lima to La Merced, where the road finishes, and after that other 6, 7 or 8 hours throught the jungle in a 4x4 pick-up.
Once in Puerto Bermudez there are a pair of hotels, but I would recomend Humboldt House. Jesus Lopez de Dicastillo, his owner, is one of those persons who are in this narrow line between madness and geniality. He traveled for about 17 years, worked for the basque TV and wrote some books. After that, 9 years ago, decided to build his own hostal in this forgotten place.
I'll never forgot his speeches under the light of the candels.

A funny thing is happening on the way to conservative attacks on solar energy—some conservatives are championing renewable energy over fossil fuel interests. The reason is simple: It's called employment.
You are here
SEIA is the solar energy industry's go-to source for the latest coverage on solar power, including U.S. and international policy, research and polls, business and financing trends, and more. Our staff strives to support the media covering solar energy issues and guide our members on effective media outreach with clear statements, background materials, news and multimedia resources.
SEIA is committed to informing policymakers, the media, and the American public about the benefits of solar energy for today's communities, our economy, and our country.
Learn more from our statements and industry news below.
Sun rising on solar deals
It was a good time for Mark Halsey, owner of Gene's Fish Fry on Route 4, to put solar power panels on the roof of his landmark, 1970s-era roadside stand. "It was nothing out of pocket; I did not put in one penny," said Halsey, whose father, Gene, started the seasonal business in 1961.
Is the Sun the Only Thing Powerful Enough to Unite Democrats and Republicans?
A funny thing is happening on the way to conservative attacks on solar energy—some conservatives are championing renewable energy over fossil fuel interests. The reason is simple: It's called employment.
Energy Experts: Deploying More Solar in Texas Will Create New Jobs, Ensure Grid Reliability
WASHINGTON, DC – In a new report, energy experts say Texas can help ensure the reliability of its electricity supply by deploying more solar energy, especially during the coming summer months. In recent years, Texas summers have been marked by extreme heat and drought. Wednesday, the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) issued its Seasonal Assessment of Resource Adequacy (SARA) as well as the semiannual update to its long-term Capacity, Demand and Reserves (CDR) report.
Massachusetts Crushes Solar Goals, Aims Much Higher
Massachusetts has already surpassed its goal of installing 250 megawatts (MW) of solar energy by 2017. Just a tad early, eh? Obviously, 250 MW was far too small of a goal, so the state is planning to increase the goal to 1,600 MW (1.6 GW).
Toshiba's 100 MW in Japan, Campbell Soup, Kohl's Big Systems
After Japan's government announced prices for its renewable energy feed-in tariff earlier this week, which particularly benefits solar, we knew there would be a quick rush to announce big projects.
DuPont Says SolarWorld Infringes Patent for Photovoltaic Cells
Bloomberg Businessweek
DuPont Co. (DD) filed a patent-infringmenet lawsuit today accusing SolarWorld AG (SWV) of selling photovoltaic cells using a material the chemical company said it invented.
The suit, filed in federal court in Portland, Oregon, is over a conductive paste that coats the front side of a solar cell. The paste is made by a unit of Heraeus Holding GmbH and supplied to SolarWorld's U.S. unit, according to the complaint.
New York state unveils new PV initiative
U.S. Governor, Andrew Cuomo has announced the introduction of a new photovoltaic initiative in New York, which aims to significantly increase the amount of customer-sited solar power in the state over the next two years.
Chinese Silicon Makers Said to Seek Duties on U.S. Rivals
Bloomberg News
Chinese polysilicon makers are pressing their governments to impose duties on U.S. imports, a move to drive up prices for competing supplies of the material used in solar panels, four people familiar with the issue said.
Study: Solar Energy Could Help Ease Summer Power Issues In Texas
Adding solar capacity to the Texas electricity grid would result in lower wholesale electricity prices for Texas customers, according to a new report authored by The Brattle Group and funded by the Energy Foundation and the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA).

Hey there, I'm looking to buy my first dSLR, and despite looking at a multitude of different used cameras and reading reviews and getting conflicting opinions, I'm totally lost. I'm interested in photography, but have never gotten a real camera due to the high cost to get into it. I've only ever taken pictures on my crappy old flip phone, and before that, Kodak disposables. So I'm totally new to this game. I don't mind spending good money on something I know I'll use often, but I have no way...

Posted to: Nikon FX SLR (DF, D1-D5, D600-D800) Talk
Early this morning I grabbed my D600 for a shoot, but realized after turning it on that the camera wasn't working. On the top-facing display it was showing the read-out as if I were holding down the front "Fn" button to change between shooting in FX and DX formats, but wasn't touching the button at all. I tried to use other features in the camera, but with the camera thinking the "Fn" button was held down, all other functions weren't working, but I could still use the shutter to take a...

I read another thread on here (which I can't find now) which I think said that a Nikkor 50mm f/1.8 wouldn't be able to autofocus on a D3000... although someone did suggest a different focal length which would autofocus (correct me if I'm wrong). Also on that post was the mention of AF-S lenses being the only ones that will autofocus on the D3000... So my questions are: Is it possible to get a Nikkor 50mm 1.8 which would be able to autofocus on a Nikon D3000? (if not, why not? Out of...

I'm trying to use my D3000 in manual mode but it seems to be doing it's own thing. I"m using the 55mm kit lens and it will only let me set the f stop to 36 if I zoom in close to an object. If I zoom out it steps the f stop down. I've tried resetting everything I can think of. I change it to f 36 in A mode and if I change it to M it will reset itself to whatever f stop it thinks is right. It seems to me I was able to set the aperture to whatever I chose in M mode before but something seems...

I've never used a digital reflex, only film ones. I own a compact (Panasonic TZ8) and recently I bought an Olympus PEN E-PL1, used. I am not fully satisfied because the Oly has very soft lenses wide open (see this thread http://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/53836118 and beware! it's huge). I found a Canon 1000D and a Nikon D3000 for 180 €, used, with kit 18-55. These are on the low end of the prices for Canon and Nikon "old" entry level digital equipment. For 170 € I could buy a Sigma 19 mm...

Hello All I'm a Canon user, but I have a friend who owns a Nikon D3000. It's tough for me to give him recommendations since I'm unfamiliar with the Nikon system. However, he is interested in a speedlite b/c the built-in flash is starting to frustrate him (as well it should). I went as far as downloading the manual for this particular model, but could find no reference to Nikon's "Commander" mode. Is the D3000 incapable of communicating remotely with Nikon speedlites directly? If that's...

I am buying my first DSLR. I have a very tight budget--not much more than $500--and I know I have to (or want to) get not only a good body, but a good zoom and prime lens, tripod, and filters. In order not to compromise on everything besides the body, I have to be willing to get a body that isn't as fancy as the most recent ones. All used, I can get the Nikon D3000 for $160, D5000 for $200, and the D80 for around $190. I'm wondering which is the best bang for my buck. I know this doesn't...

Hello, I currently own a Nikon D3000 with the 18mm - 55mm kit lens. I have a small studio (3m x 2m) where I have begun child and family photography. I am frustrated by the quality of my photographs and am leaning heavily on Photoshop and post production in order to get the images ready for my customers.

I have a very good handle on film photography as I have done many weddings and journalistic events over my 50 years as an amateur and a professional. Last week I didn't know enough to even ask an intelligent question about digital hardware so bear with me, please. I am considering the purchase of a Nikon in the D3000 or D5000 series and I need better understanding.

Assassin's Creed 3 TV spot is possibly amazing, hilarious
Assassin's Creed 3 is the focus of a new TV ad which you are allowed to watch if you are American. Australians? Not so much. So fill me in.
I found this unwatchable video on Evil Avatar, where comments indicate it may be hilariously dudebro. International readers, is it as awesome as I imagine?
Assassin's Creed 3 launches on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in October, with a PC launch in November. A Wii U release will accompany the troublingly mysterious console's launch.

If you're a fan of Minnesota native Adam Young's Owl City, you're likely a fan of Toronto's LIGHTS. The two artists have been good friends for several years now. Over the summer she appeared in his video for the song "Deer in the Headlights," which portrayed the sometimes reclusive Young in a different vein. "He's even come more out of his shell than ever. He's amazing. We actually did the shoot in L.A.," says the ever-bubbly LIGHTS. "He invited me out for the day. It was so fun, and he's always supported me so much. I'd drop anything to go out and help him." To be in the shoot, LIGHTS took a break from recording her latest album, Siberia, which has since been released. Fans of her brilliant debut, 2009's The Listening, will find this album a little different. "Creating this record was really exciting," she says. "After spending some time shedding those expectations of a first record and not wanting to make the same thing over again, I really wanted to try something new and push the music and really make the music I enjoy listening to." The result is a grittier palette of electronic pop. The rougher sound is courtesy of collaboration with fellow Canadians Holy Fuck. LIGHTS, though, is a songwriter first. Indeed, if you look her up on Spotify, the top five tracks displayed are from her acoustic EP from last year. "I actually spent some time away this year just on my own making sure all the [new] songs could translate acoustically and performed them acoustically, because if you can't play something like that just on its own, what's holding the song together? Nothing." All ages.

AbstractThere currently is no commercially available instrument which can be programmed and used in real time to analyze a variety of electroactive species in the marine environment and simultaneously record pH and temperature. The development of a deployable / profiling electrochemical platform would allow for the real time measurement of electroactive species, pH and temperature in the water column, sediments and soils. Further, the instrument can be moored in position to take timed data, and used in the analysis of sediments in the ocean, bays, harbors (Tengberg, 1995), or planet surfaces. With the concern about Hot Spots, where both copper, tin, lead paints from ships and lead from discarded batteries from lighted buoys is a concern, an instrument such as this could be used to locate contaminated sediments in bays and harbors. A moored electrochemical instrument can also be used to monitor discharge compliance from manufacturing, electrical power plants (for detecting copper or other metal contamination), in monitoring the effluent from hydrothermal vents (Nuzzio, 1988,1999) or used as a lander on a planetary surface.

I've been working on the Web since 1996. In 1999 I began my own web consultancy, Emerge Digital, which was acquired by Upshot in 2009. Along the way I launched ReachMail, which was divested to ReachMail, Inc. in 2008.
GreyGoo is now my focus, and I couldn't be happier. I love working with my team and clients—understanding their business and challenges, and creating effective strategies, designs and code to solve them. During momentary spurts of free time, I like hanging out with my wife and daughter, taking care of my cadre of amphibians (yeah, you read that right) and rehabbing our house in Phoenix.
I grew up waking to the stunning mountain vistas of El Arrayan in the outskirts of Santiago, Chile. Despite now having the less than spectacular view of endless cornfields and row houses living in the Midwest, I'm thankful each day I get to sit down and hammer out HTML, CSS, JQuery, and PHP. I'm fascinated by the ever-evolving web, and always anxious to learn and embrace new ways of doing things.
When not staring intently at a screen, I enjoy spending time with my wife and daughter, connecting with friends and family back home in Chile, and snapping a photo or two with my Nikon D90.

Yet more on termination issues: Tim Conway writes: "I couldn't get a new external 4.3Gb drive with an IBM mechanism to work on my PowerPC 8500/132 unless it was the only device on the external SCSI bus. If any other device was also on the bus, none of those devices showed up on the desktop or could be seen by Norton, FWB or SCSIProbe. I tried the drive on a friend's 7200/90 and it worked OK. I sent it back to the supplier, who replaced the SCSI ID selector switch. He tested it and found no problems, but when I got it back again it still wouldn't work on my 8500 unless it was the only device. Eventually, I used FWB SCSI Configure to change the ID of one of my internal drives from 0 to 1. The IBM drive then worked with other devices, but only if it was the last physical device on the chain (and therefore terminated). My supplier says some IBM drives are very sensitive to termination."
Update: Several readers suggested that this problem does not sound like a termination issue. It is more likely a bad cable or some similar cause.

Live music, a dog show, and the ever-popular Chili cookoff and Pie bakeoff are all on the menu of DennyFest this fall. So mark your calendars and make plans to stop by and join in. This year's date is Saturday, September 17th, rain or shine, for the Finn Hill Neighborhood Alliance's annual September "swan song to summer" festival.
What else can you look forward to? As in past years, there will be kids' activities, guided nature hikes, and a barbeque. Also in store may be tours for kids of a few of the fire engines. An eclectic variety of other events are in the works, but more volunteers are needed.
Live music again this year, more to come as we book musicians.
If you can pitch in with your creativity or ideas, please use the contact form to volunteer.
All Finn Hill residents and friends of Finn Hill Neighborhood Alliance are welcome to come and encouraged to share their talents and help. Details continue to be worked out, and plans will be announced as they are finalized.
DennyFest, always in O. O. Denny Park, will be held from 12 to 4 pm near the Clayton Rich Memorial Shelter. There is no admission charge.
Take a peak at past DennyFest events:
This year's DennyFest was held after a rainy morning and in the wake of a Seahawks season opener that didn't turn out the way the 12th Man wanted. But DennyFest was the perfect antidote to cloudy skies and deflated football fans. Several hundred Finn Hill residents came down to O.O.

We had arts & crafts and a bouncy house for the kids, a massage tent for those who once were kids but are now feeling their age, and a dog...read more

Cheney the Tree-Hugger: Dick Cheney again displayed his flair for dark, ironic humor while speaking at the White House Conference on North American Wildlife Policy, saying that the conservation of wildlife has been a "high priority" for the Bush Administration.
Al Franken Surges: U.S. Senate candidate Al Franken moves ahead of his opponent, Republican Norm Coleman, in the Minnesota race.

It's been a while since I've posted on the blog - as I moved to more internal teams, I haven't had as much to talk about. That's all about to change. Below is an email I just sent out. You can find my new blog (actually, my old personal one) at http://yalangriver.wordpress.com/. Hope to see y'all there!

---------------

In keeping with Microsoft tradition, I'm writing to all of you to let you know that December 2nd is my last day at the company.

I'm going to be taking a COO position at EC:Wise, a 100+ person consulting company that specializes in business intelligence, analysis and data services as well as a position in an associated startup that is providing automation, analytics and social networking for the casino industry. As most of you know, I've always been interested in helping companies attain their goals and enable better focus on their customers – whether thru transactional systems, data analysis or social networking. This allows me to hit many of these things at once. Additionally, it has the added bonus of working with some people that I've known for over 20 years, including
someone that I used to work with in my own company back in my New Jersey days. Finally, I get to spend some time working not only in the .NET world, but the open source world as well.

My nearly 10 years at Microsoft have been an incredible learning experience – you've all been part of that. I've been involved in the creation of some amazing software, some incredible teams, and I respect the
fact that this has been one of the few large companies that encourages you to speak your mind. If I can leave anything with y'all it's to keep fighting to do the right thing by customers – both internal and external – even if you have to be creative to get there.

I'll be staying in the Seattle area – and can be reached via my personal email at email@example.com, and of course on Facebook at www.facebook.com/yalangriver.

Please keep in touch.

Pretty cool. I have my XBOX 360 playing Hulu, YouTube and other videos via MediaMall's PlayOn software. Channel9 posted the source code to a plugin that lets you watch C9 videos, screencasts, etc., via the TV too. The video is pretty clear - I could see the VS code really well.

Joe Homnick has an awesome blog entry on keeping your VPCs on a USB key (your undo drive on your hard disc). He says that he's getting great performance, and it's easy to keep your VPCs with you wherever you go. Great for training classes.

Check it out!

Jim Wooley just posted a great entry on his ThinqLinq site. It involves using Linq to XML and VB9's XML Literals to query Shakespeare's plays. He first joins all the plays on his drive together into one big XML file and then gets the top 50 characters by the number of lines they speak. Head over there to see the code. Very clean, IMO.

 Those of you who know me know that I'm a Shakespeare fanatic and a pretty big fan of Linq also <g> - this post just made my day. Great way to (almost) start the weekend. Thanks, Jim!

Many years ago I saw Jill Sobule do a show - and I enjoyed her sense of humor and stage presence. Bought a few of her CDs to check them out. Anyway, was looking around today and found this site. It's called Jill's Next Record! and asks the community at large to help her produce her CD. She offers various things for different levels of support - and keeps a tally on the site (currently at around $26,000). Some of my favorites:

$25 - Polished Rock Level: An advance copy of the CD. Weeks before the masses.
$50 - Pewter Level: An advance copy and a "Thank You" on the CD.

$500 - Gold Level: This is where it gets good! At the end of my CD, I'll do a fun instrumental track where I'll mention your name and maybe rhyme with it. And if you don't want your name used, you can give me a loved one's instead. What a great gift!
$750 - Gold Doubloons Level: Exactly like the gold level, but you give me more money.

$5,000 — Diamond Level: I will come and do a house concert for you. Invite your friends, serve some drinks, bring me out and I sing. Actually, this level is a smart choice economically. I've played many house concerts where the host has charged his guests and made his money back. I'd go for this if I were you.

Heck, for $10,000 you can sing on the CD or play cowbell - your choice. <g> Never too much cowbell...

 Anyway, just a data point for how things are changing in this more connected society.

YAGhttp://blogs.msdn.com/YAG/ProfileUrlRedirect.ashxWindows Vista border issue and SP2http://blogs.msdn.com/b/yag/archive/2007/10/31/windows-vista-border-issue-and-sp2.aspx2007-10-31T21:15:00Z2007-10-31T21:15:00Z
We've figured out the Vista border issue (we think). We couldn't reproduce it here, but Jim Slater noted that it happens for him when he changes the bordertype in the init. As Calvin mentioned in these blog entries:

Windows Vista Aero BorderStyle Paint problem as non Administrator

Fix your forms to paint borders correctly under Vista Aero

Vista doesn't allow you to change the border type after the window is created unless you are running as administrator (in fact, he duplicates this in C++). He discusses ways around this - but this is not an SP2 issue - there's nothing we can do about this in our SP.

YAGhttp://blogs.msdn.com/YAG/ProfileUrlRedirect.ashxSP2 commentshttp://blogs.msdn.com/b/yag/archive/2007/10/23/sp2-comments.aspx2007-10-23T11:10:00Z2007-10-23T11:10:00Z
I've been reading the comments here and on some sites about SP2. I wanted to give my point of view about it and ask for a few things from the community.

Milind, Calvin, Aiwen and I have been going thru the reports and trying to reproduce them here on multiple OS' and on SP1 and SP2. We haven't been able to succeed. Tonight I heard from John Koziol that he and some former VFP testers were testing SP2 (on XP) as well and they came to the conclusion that it is stable as well.

So, that leaves us in a bit of a bind. One thing that occurred to me over the weekend is that some folks that are seeing problems may have installed SP2 over the beta - which is not supported and may have left files in a strange state.

So, if you are having issues (let's start with the Vista ones), can you please be sure you installed SP2 over a plain vanilla VFP9?

For instance, on VFP9 SP2 fixed the following bugs reported here on my blog:

The intellisense bug: try to use arrow up/down to select the items show from intellisense got multi-selection

Windows Vista Aero BorderStyle paint bug as Calvin talked in his blog.

We tested both of these in multiple combinations and kept getting correct results.

Oh, and for Bernard Bout's DateTime bug - we think that happened due to another fix for DateTime (kinda like what happened when we fixed the GROUP BY in an earlier version of VFP), but we need more info to repro it. One workaround to please try is to use methods (rather than properties) that return DateTimes.

Feel free to leave comments here if you've reported something, or even better, via Connect.

Thanks!

As some of you have noticed, we had a bug in our SP2 release. We forgot to update the file with the splash screen in it. Nice getting back online to messages about it. My thanks to those of you who mentioned it nicely. <g>

Anyway, Milind and I have already started putting together the files and process needed to get a new version out there. Hopefully it will be out tomorrow. Sorry to everyone about the restart...

I'll be speaking at a conference in Frankfurt, Germany on November 8-10. I'll be keynoting the VFP conference and doing a session on VB.NET (including things like LINQ, Silverlight and future releases).

Here's a great post about blogging and its usefulness in corporations. The quote I wanted to point out:

What did Microsoft do? I don't know if they had it before, but it takes certain organizational cultural values. It's not about process, or rules. In fact, it requires acceptance of uncertainty and ambiguity, tolerance of risk, openness to criticism, and a degree of confidence. These are not things that can be proceduralized, but instead come from how the organization is, uh, organized, and simply the underlying values.

My first month or two at Microsoft I was in a meeting with Steve Ballmer and other VPs. We were talking about blogging, responding on Newsgroups, Forums, etc. The thing I remembered most about the meeting - and what made me so happy to be here was around the discussion of written standards. Steve (and Eric Rudder if I recall correctly) basically ended the conversation with "we hire smart people, let's trust them to be smart about what they do".

Like Gerald says, this comes from the underlying values...

Tim Heuer has been working with a team on testing out Silverlight. They created a game called Zero Gravity. It's unbelievably addictive. The music won't leave my head... <g>

Anyway, they've included support for a number of social networking sites - to help get the word out and to use some of the capabilities to improve the game. So you can add the main character (Lt.

I'm here in Prague, have to head back to the conference for the Q&A session, but spent some time reading my RSS Feeds. Bernard Bout has a "How To" article on using the VB Interop Control Toolkit with VFP. I showed this in my keynote here, using a similar example. I also used the kit to create a control that can host WPF in your VFP form. If you want another example, check out Beth's blog entry on the toolkit.

Gotta run to a friend's for dinner, but wanted to point out a few videos up on Soapbox. One video is of Bob Rebholz - our Group Product Manager, and one is of me. Both videos talk about some of what we're working on.

YAGhttp://blogs.msdn.com/YAG/ProfileUrlRedirect.ashxShowing what we got...http://blogs.msdn.com/b/yag/archive/2007/03/30/showing-what-we-got.aspx2007-03-30T20:04:00Z2007-03-30T20:04:00Z
When I left the developer division a number of months ago, people were curious as to why. I explained that this new gig was one that kept me awake at night thinking of all the cool things we could be doing. I wrote a little about  this when I first joined the team.

Well, now everyone can see an early view of what we've been working on - what we like to call Microsoft.Community. Doug has a great post on what it looks like and its manifestation. I want to talk about how we got there, the thought process behind it.

 To give a quick overview, Microsoft.Community is made up of three pillars, Community Discovery Services, Community Membership Services, and Community Discussion Services. Community Discovery Services enables social bookmarking and tagging, Community Membership Services provides membership and reputation services. Finally Community Discussion Services provides threaded discussion services.

On top of these, we have a number of sites. TagSpace is the codename for our social networking and tagging collection site. ClaimSpace is the codename for our explicit reputation management site. Finally, our blog and forum sites will eventually move over to new versions built on the Community Discussion Services.

That's a really quick overview. Before reading on, I highly recommend that you read Doug's post for more details. I'll wait <g>.

Welcome back! As I said before, I want to talk about how we got to this group of services and sites. To do this, I want to give you insight into our discussions.

The underlying question in all this is how do we connect people? How do we connect people to resources across the web, to communities, to other people with similar interests? I've been a big community member and booster for over 20 years - on Compuserve, offering space for local user groups when I had my own company, offering speakers to local groups whenever needed, etc, Most of my best friends have come from the communities that I participated in. People from the community have stayed with me for weeks when they've needed a place, I've never been alone in a new city when going there for work because somehow, there was always someone I knew around - even if we'd never met in person. So, to me, community is an inherent goodness.

But even if it isn't inherently good, community is also useful from a learning perspective. If you find a great KB article that answers your question, you are happy. If you belong to a user group and point it out to someone else, more people are happy. If you blog about it, and those who read your blog or do a search find it, they are happy. The interesting thing is that a social, trusted network is a great way of spreading information. But how do you build that social, trusted network? How do you find the right community or people? How do you enable those communities to form at will? That's what we were asking.

Any community needs certain things in order to exist. You have to identify people who may want to be part of your community, connect them together in a venue and reward them for taking part in the community.

If you look at a user group, it meets these criteria. You typically name the user group thru its identification (The Bay Area Database Developers Association, for instance). You meet monthly in a certain location, with people getting to know each other during breaks or before or after the session. You also reward people through the natural activities - you get information, get to learn to speak better, possibly find a job (most user groups start with the question - is anyone looking for or does anyone have a job?).

Codeplex, does much of the same, but in an online, disconnected mode. It's made up of lots of communities that self-form around a project in which they have interest. It has tools (source control, tags, wikis, forums, work items) that are geared around what is needed for those types of communities. By participating in the community thru its own Codeplex project, the Codeplex team hears from folks about what else is needed and thru agile delivery, provides it quickly enough to keep the underlying strata firm and useful enough to let the communities continue to grow.

If we draw these four requirements, we can see how the services and sites provide what is needed to match these requirements.

OK. So now we have the basic outline of what we want to create. Let's look at a more architectural view for these same things. We have the services laid out horizontally and can use any combination of these for sites. With the great work of our Product Managers we coalesced on a few core sites to start. These are listed vertically, with their lower range showing which services they consume. We began, of course, with our existing sites - forums and blogs. They make use of all the services (Doug discussed one of my favorite scenarios - building your own forum based on tags). The two new sites, codenamed TagSpace and ClaimSpace make use of the two top services.

Wanting to open this up over time (using this on sites of our scale means that we have to slowly grow and be sure that we can handle this), we opted to provide a RESTful interface to all our services and we plan to embrace some of the emerging standards you see with Web 2.0 sites.

Wow! This has taken a while. In future entries, I plan to drill down into some of these services, and as we work further on cacheing and scaling techniques, talk about some of what we learn.

In any case - it's really exciting to have this stuff ready to ship. We want to get your feedback (look here for a post when it's live) and hope to release updates pretty regularly as we move forward.

This set is an old one but has two great minifigs. I actually picked this up off of ebay a while ago and paid well over the original friendly price tag. That was before I knew they were remaking Yoda and Dooku, oh well, live and learn. On to the good stuff.
Set Name: Jedi Duel
Set Number: 7103
Number of Pieces:81 LEGO box, 81 Peeron, 82 Brickset, 74 Bricklink
Minifigs: 2
Price: $10 USD (or around $45 on ebay)
Theme: Star Wars
Year Released: 2002
flickr (High res pics available here)
THE BOX, now with more self wear, and ugly sticker price residue
Good old LEGO making the set seem better than it is, with glowing light sabers and all.
Includes a great picture of Yoda and Count Dooku getting along. At least long enough to pose for this picture.
Shows some alternate models you can build and a preview of other sets, including 7113, which you can expect a review on shortly.
It contains the same image as the box and is quite old and used as you can see. This is one of the few instructions in my library that has been used well.
Showing Yoda on his old IBM checking out the new models at www.LEGO.com/starwars
Random page:
Yoda is just checking out the specs on the rotary girder.
LEGO insert:
Anyone remember Jack Stone, because I actually don't.
Lots and lots of LEGO advertising going on here, and being that I wasn't collecting in 2002, the Life on Mars sets look appealing.
This is the main reason I sought out this set at such a high price: Yoda and Dooku, two fig's that
An interesting fact is there were 2 prints of Dooku's face, a dark beard which I have in this set and a lighter beard which more closely matches his hairpiece. The lighter version is displayed below courtesy of bricklink.
Nice little print job on the back of Yoda's robes and I'll save you the extra picture because there is nothing under Dooku's cape
Count Dooku's little speeder is a nice change from the plain Jane speeders, it has two nice printed pieces and is cleverly built. It's got a different design that the original speeder we are used to seeing scout troopers on. It's small but functional, it even has clips for weapons on the side, plus the air intake on the top is a nice touch. I'm not sure if this was the intent, but Count Dooku's cape fit's nicely under the air intake so it looks like it is flowing in the wind. I feel the printed pieces bring this speeder together and it's a nice one off bike for Count Dooku.The rotary girder as I like to call it is simply there for extra pieces; it appears that you can have it break down probably from the force. It's a nice touch but I would have preferred more minifigs, but for ten bucks you can't complain. Enjoy the following different views.
The girder itself: I felt it deserved some pics alone so you can see the multiple ways it can move.
Here you see how if you move up the handle, it allows the crane piece to fall over, why? Not sure, probably a tragic victim of the force, enjoy the next few pics showing it's versatile movements.
LOOK, It can move the other way. OK, I'm sure you think I'm on a picture quota. I'm done with that piece, I just didn't know how else to show you the availability of movements it had.
Final Product:
Dooku shows up and Yoda immediately shows him his force power by moving the crane slightly to the left. That'll show him.
Count Dooku is frightened for his life and turns right around (as does the crane) and the sound of Yoda's light saber is too much, Count Dooku retreats like the coward he is.
Totals time
Design: 7/10 I like the ship, even though it's pretty simple, but the crane to me seems useless. It was probably just to fill up the parts list.
Parts: 8/10 I give it such a high score because of the bent light saber hilt, this is the only set you can get it in (until the remake), and it's a marvelous piece. The printed pieces are nice but nothing to write home about. Overall the parts are good for the original money.
Build: 7/10 Nothing too challenging here, very few pieces with a few technic ones thrown in, but easily done in about five minutes.
Minifigs: 9/10 Again, I am rating them so high because of their rarity. Even though they have been remade for the clone wars sets, they are still the originals and that means a lot to some people. Two is definitely not four like today's battle packs, but back then before any thought of a battle pack, this was a great way to get two rare minifig's.
Playability: 10/10 Ten because it makes sense. It's a scene from the movie, so you already know what to do, but the speeder bike works well, and the crane is just a fun piece you could force throw at Dooku.
Price: 8/10 I think the $10 sets have always been a bargain, but one more minifig would have been nice, not sure who. Anyway, I was willing to drop $45 since they are collectors items so $10 is a bargain.
Total: 49/60 It's a simple set the way they were back in 2002. It features a few good pieces but I think most people bought this set for the minifig's. I really like the smaller set's that LEGO used to do for the Star Wars line, now it seems like everything but the battle packs starts at $25. With that said, if you're a collector you should definitely get this one and if you happen to run across it cheap, pick it up.
