Ticket #8150 (closed Bug: wontfix)
Special characters from text file cause unexpected spacing in Win98 / Firefox
|Reported by:
|Owned by:
|Visual Editor
Using: Plone 2.5.5, kupu 1.4.2.
The attached file was cleaned up by a client using Win98 and Wordpad. I opened it on my Mac using TextEdit, and see no special characters. Similarly, opening the file in TextMate on my Mac does not show any special characters.
But, if I take the same file and go to my PC (Windows XP) and open it in Notepad, I see special characters in the file indicating where <br> or <p> tags would ordinarily be.
Using Firefox for OS X 10.4.11, if I select everything and cut and paste it, there are some unexpected spaces that also get added. I am able to edit these spaces out in Firefox, and saving preserves this. (I can't test on Safari, as this is before kupu played well with Safari.)
On the PC, I'm able to paste everything into Firefox 184.108.40.206 without issue, no extra spaces, no cleanup needed.
However, my client, running Windows 98, Firefox 18.104.22.168, IE7, Wordpad, and Notepad, is getting the extra spacing using both kinds of browsers and both text editors. She has to edit each page twice to get the styling to take. I'm guessing the problem is either Windows 98 or that her text editor has some sort of different encoding / character set on it than mine?
What should her character set be set to, and where can this be be set? Or, is there another solution you can think of?

The file attachment is in UTF16LE encoding.
One of the problems with Windows 98 was that it only had limited unicode support. My guess therefore would be that the problem is with Windows 98 and the only solution may be to use a different system.

Install software for PANASONIC NV-GS50 in order to be able to use all its features. Solve problems with your PANASONIC NV-GS50 by keeping it updated.

Important considerations for PANASONIC NV-GS50 drivers :
A bad installation could have serious consequences (unable to restart your computer, damaged hard-drive, lost data etc.) johnsondrivers.com cannot be held responsible for any eventual damage. To know the latest products of the brand, go to the PANASONIC site. Never disable your anti-virus programme during the installation of a driver. Let it check the integrity of all data contained in it. To know whether you have to intervene on your computer during installation of your driver, read the manual. If you are looking for a driver for your WINDOWS operating system, you will no doubt find one in the list below. MICROSOFT launched the first version in 1995 and is now on its thirteenth version. MS-DOS was the inner most core of operating systems pre-dating Windows Millenium (including the one directly before it), it manages the distribution of sectors for the drivers, files and directories. The Windows operating system was really only two-dimensional versions of MS-DOS. Windows has been credited with the system of visual organisation using windows (which become interactive with the mouse's curser), whereas mac computers had already been using this design for 5 years before the launch of windows 3.1. However it is now known that it was the company XEROX who came up with this idea. Windows NT, a new multi-user operating system, was created in collaboration with IBM. They worked on it for 6 years and stopped using MS-DOS which has become too limited in terms of hard drive access. Microsoft's most recent operating systems still contain the NT core. From the beginnings of Windows NT there followed Windows 2000, XP, Vista and now Seven. Only the operating system Windows NT uses NTFS to stock data in its files. The other systems still use FAT32 which depends on MS-DOS. Since Windows NT, Microsoft offer up-dates grouped together into service packs, which have large repercussions on a computer's performance. To install a driver for your NV-GS50, you first need to check you version of Windows, as well as the formatting of the drives, as well as the version of your service pack.
If you have problems with the installation, try several times as the files may be more recent than your NV-GS50. The latest driver isn't always the most adapted, it can notably contain some unidentified bugs. The first step is to choose a driver that dates from the same time that you bought your NV-GS50 on. You can install a more recent driver to improve the performances of your NV-GS50. Most drivers are heavier than the drivers for your NV-GS50. A broadband connection will allow you to upload in no time. Uploading your driver will take a bit longer of you are using a wireless operator. It is always safer to make a copy of your file on your computer in a place you can find easily as the file doesn't take up much space on your hard drive. The list of files that follows only contains drivers for your NV-GS50. At least that is what we have identified based on the manufacturer's descriptions of the files. Your NV-GS50s version is vital to choose your driver properly, which must ensure the link between your computer and your NV-GS50. The operating system is also usually important in choosing your driver. You'll find drivers in different languages to help with setting up and in case of problems. The chosen language isn't important for your driver and if it only exists in English, then you'll still be able to install it.

It is well known that the writers of the Latin American "Boom" Generation have influenced authors in emerging nations all over the world. Gabriel García Márquez, for example, played a significant role in shaping the works of Ismail Kadare (Albania), Salman Rushdie (India), and Chinua Achebe (Nigeria). All three of these authors have acknowledged García Márquez as a source of inspiration for their own writings; however, García Márquez's other contemporaries including Carlos Fuentes, Mario Vargas Llosa, Julio Cortázar and more also influenced countless writers abroad. The main focus of this session is to explore how García Márquez and the other writers of the Latin American "Boom" have made an impact on authors beyond Latin America's borders.
Performing Fantastika: An Interdisciplinary Conference

Oceanic Modernism
Editors: Matthew Hayward and Maebh Long
(University of the South Pacific)
In today's global landscape, the category of the "human" has assumed a principal position not simply in terms of its ontological centrality but also in relation to surrounding nonhuman worlds. At stake are questions ranging from the impact of humans on the biosphere (the Anthropocene) to their involvement in the virtual world (Knowledge Commons and Ergodicity) to their experiences of the "inner life" of things (Object-oriented ontology and Affect Theory) to the ethical politics over the Other (the terrorist, the refugee, the queer).
Defending and explaining the "humanities" and "liberal arts" has become a regular challenge to many of us at institutions public or private. How can turning to the eighteenth century help us to clarify the stakes and to develop more nuanced rather than reactive responses? What were eighteenth-century understandings of the value of the literary, the artistic, the amateur scientific experiment?
In this era of multiple public spheres and global publics, how was multilingualism or the cultural encounter valued?
Life writing is a genre and a practice of criticism (Marlene Kadar, 1992) that refers to history, literature, and documentary and includes the sub-genres of memoirs, biography, oral testimonies, diaries, epistolary works and personal narratives. The genre writing has been a favorite one for research in the humanities serving to explore identity formation and inner dialogue with the self as well as with critical transitions, such as cultural adaptation, diaspora, migration, and other traumatic experiences. Life writings are an important resource to understand individuals, communities and the cultural impacts of historical periods. The immediate effects of personal letters and journals disclose the past of individuals and collectives.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Brad Johnson, left, greets his former teammate now with the Denver Broncos John Lynch, right, following the Broncos 16-13 victory over the Buccaneers on Sunday, October 3, 2004 in Tampa, Fla.
AP Photo TAMPA -- John Lynch mingled and posed for pictures with old friends, then savored one more round of applause before heading for the visiting locker room teary-eyed and deeply satisfied.
The Denver safety's emotional return to Tampa Bay was a success Sunday, with the Broncos beating the winless Buccaneers 16-13 despite a potentially game-turning gentlemanly mistake by the five-time Pro Bowl selection with a reputation for delivering bone-jarring hits.
"You caught me at a bad moment," Lynch said when told he appeared to have tears streaming from his eyes when he walked through the tunnel leading from the field.
"I think finally everything hit me. I anticipated that might come at some point. Last night, to be honest, I didn't sleep a wink. I don't know if I was that nervous for the Super Bowl."
Jake Plummer threw a 5-yard TD pass to Patrick Hape and Jason Elam kicked three field goals to keep Denver (3-1) atop the AFC West. Tampa Bay's only touchdown came on a play on which Lynch failed to knock down a receiver who was getting up off the ground.
Instead, Lynch merely touched Michael Clayton on the back, thinking the rookie was down. Clayton, whose helmet was knocked off when his head was brushed by Lynch's knee, stood up and took off for the end zone to complete a 51-yard pass play.
Plummer completed 13 of 31 passes for 138 yards for Denver, saving his best for the fourth quarter -- when he took advantage of a 37-yard pass interference penalty to set up Elam's 24-yard field goal that snapped a 13-13 tie with 9:03 to go.
The Denver quarterback also put together a long drive that burned all but three seconds of the final 7:26 off the clock. Tampa Bay inserted Chris Simms for the last play, and Lynch nearly intercepted his desperation pass.
The loss was the sixth straight over two seasons for the Bucs (0-4), who have dropped 10 of their last 13 games. The Bucs are 0-4 for the first time since 1996.

For the 12th time this season the Fort Lauderdale Strikers have either led or were tied at the half.
Finally on that 12th attempt they can call themselves victorious.
The difference was Haitian defender James Marcelin's first career goal with the Strikers in the 43 minute for a 2-1 victory over state rival Tampa Bay Rowdies before 5,145 fans at Lockhart Stadium on Saturday
The game winner came after a Walter Ramirez free kick from just outside the penalty box was on target, but Rowdies keeper Kamil Contofalsky was unable to control the save. The rebound went directly to Marcelin just three yards in front of the goal mouth.
The win was the Strikers (2-2-4) second...

There are still significant challenges to reaching a permanent deal on Iran's nuclear enrichment program, but there's plenty of room to compromise.
Regions / North America
U.S. foreign policy is anything but demilitarized. But where the Bush team saw every problem as a nail, the Obama team wields more than just a hammer.
Washington is threatening to withhold development aid unless El Salvador adopts economic policies that Salvadorans just voted against.
The Philippines and Vietnam are natural allies in their common territorial struggles against China. But they should leave Washington out of it.
Despite the Western claim that the dispute with Iran over nuclear research rests on it, the NPT is largely a means of maintaining Western nuclear-weapons superiority.
For North Korea to rise higher on the list of U.S. priorities, Washington policymakers will have to stop considering it in isolation.
Given the limits of its power and its own compromised relationship with international law, the U.S. isn't in a position to do much about Ukraine.
If costly drug war strategies in Afghanistan have been unsuccessful even with a strong U.S. military presence, they won't stand a chance after the U.S. withdraws.
Change won't come to America's broken immigration system from policymakers. It will come from organizers.
The human race and our planet need a new water ethic.

yes but also remember that that was a reporter from the guardian who got that footage and submitted that report. us tv is getting better that they can air stuff like that, no doubt. there's nothing surprising in that video, but it's better than most american reporters produce.
What a distrurbing narrative.
This is a disaster on so many levels. One soldier talks about being on constant alert, that his body never gets to relax. These people are going to come back with PTSD, I only hope that the VA is ready with adequate treatment providers and facilities to deal with the aftermath. I am a therapist who has worked with families after their dad returns, men who can't drive because they flashback while on the street and try to drive into other cars. I really hope that the VA can handle it, somehow I doubt it.
@3: The VA, ready to handle returning PTSD cases? I find that... Unlikely. Besides which, the average person of a military mindset isn't willing to have a conversation with a therapist anyway.
@4, Yeah, people with a "military mindset" they're just subhuman, not a sensitive person like you.
Thanks mikeblanco...beat me to it.
mike, he didn't imply subhuman.
If you or I witnessed those types atrocities, it's doubtful we'd be willing to recount them.
Meanwhile, we'll wait with baited breath for someone from congress to do a 15-month rotation. I nominate McCain.
Good catch Charles. Jesus, what an astonishing fiasco. Welcome to Empire Decline, America. And Iraq-- what can we say? Sorry about your country.
@7 you need to read the statement at 4 again.
"Besides which, the average person of a military mindset isn't willing to have a conversation with a therapist anyway."
To imply that there is some kind of universal mind set of all the people who serve in the military, or even an "average" mind set is absurd. What next? Average Jewish mind set wants to take your money, average Irish mindset wants to get drunk, average african american mindset wants to wear loose fitting shoes? All these ideas are absurd and do a disservice to the people they are about.

"By its very nature the clown, as represented in art, is an interdisciplinary phenomenon. In whichever artform it appears - fiction, drama, film, photography or fine art - it carries the symbolic association of its usage in popular culture, be it ritual festivities, street theatre or circus. The clown, like its extended family of fools, jesters, picaros and tricksters, has a variety of functions all focussed around its status and image of being "other." Frequently a marginalised figure, it provides the foil for the shortcomings of dominant discourse or the absurdities of human behaviour." "Clowns, Fools and Picaros represents the latest research on the clown, bringing together for the first time studies from four continents: Europe, America, Africa and Asia. It attempts to ascertain commonalities, overlaps and differences between artistic expressions of the "clownesque" from these various continents and genres, and above all, to examine the role of the clown in our cultures today." "This volume is of interest for scholars of political and comic drama, film and visual art as well as scholars of comparative literature and anthropology."--Jacket.

Robbery attempt reported outside Rutland pharmacyJanuary 18,2013Police seek
would-be mugger
Rutland police say they are searching for a man who reportedly tried to steal a bag of prescription drugs from a man walking with crutches outside a city pharmacy.
Police were called to Walgreens Pharmacy on Woodstock Avenue at 11:30 a.m. Tuesday where Felix Krowinski told police he was approached outside the store by a roughly 60-year-old man who grabbed his prescription bag and tried to wrench it out of his hand, according to Rutland Police Sgt. James Tarbell.
Krowinski said he held onto the bag and kept his balance long enough for his wife Susan to come to his aid.
The Rutland couple told police that the unidentified man fled the scene in an orange or rust colored SUV, Tarbell said.
Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call city police at 773-1816.MORE IN This Just In

I decided to splurge and buy myself a quality pillow for once which forced me to spend more money on a pillow than I've ever spent. I am happy to say that this product is WORTH EVERY PENNY! Sleeping on this pillow is like sleeping on a cloud and the support it provides for your neck and head is awesome. An unexpected plus has been the relief it has also brought for my acid reflux at night. Love this product...........
Very comfortable. Slightly heavy if you want to move it at night but you don't need to flip it over because the heat actually dissipates down through the holes and can be felt instead on the bottom of the pillow. I think that this pillow stays a lot cooler than traditional pillows.
Have used this pillow for about a month now. My sleeping has improved greatly. The quality is excellent. Only improvement would be a bit more fill. Great value for the money. I intend to purchase another pillow from this manufacturer.
It was awesome!! I ordered, they kept me informed on the status of my review and when I receive my purchase, it was exactly what I ordered. It was fast too. About 5 days.
I broke my ankle and use this pillow to elevate and cradle this painful injury. I love this pillow and carry it everywhere I go!
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Not applicable
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Excellent
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Very accurate
Pillow is firm but not too firm. I like the height as it supports your hear. No smell & not heavy, size is good.
I bought this pillow for my mother and she really likes it. It's supportive but still soft, because the density is only 4lbs.
I wanted a memory foam pillow. Kinda thin is my taste. This pillow is dense and is a great pillow for those like a higher and dense pillow. If that's what your looking for then I recommend this pillow.
very comfortable. recommend.
Smells like toothpaste. In spite of the odor, I like the firmness of the pillow. I am a back and both sides sleeper.
This is the best pillow I have ever bought. Not so soft that it loses it' s shape, and it doesn't get hot! I love my pillow, I take it everywhere. (my suitcase) My husband loves his, and my son loves his as well as my mother. I believe I hit the jackpot!
Very disappointed with this pillow...thought it would be more firm than what it was...
This was written up as being a soft memory foam. NOT!!!!! It is hard foam, VERY thick and impossible to sleep on. I wasted a lot of money on this item, and feel ripped off. Most items on Overstock come just exactly as explained. Not this item. DO NOT get this item unless you want a memory foam pillow that is thick and ungiving.
what else can I say about this pillow, but the pillow is sooo comfortable...the pillow sits up sooo high at least 6 inches and it cradles your face while sleeping. You cant go wrong...
I am always searching for the perfect pillow and struggle with a perpetual stiff neck. I finally bought a Cannon pillow with polyurethane memory foam at Kmart and went back a month later and they stopped selling the memory foam after all the PBDE environmental warnings. I searched everywhere and thought I matched this product on Overstock.com. It is advertised as medium firmness but I find it to be pretty firm and a little too hard for me. My husband is now using it and he said he can put up with it but it isn't the perfect pillow. I tried to search for something labeled as soft firmness but I have been unsuccessful.
Here's why: This pillow is deceiving by the way it looks in the photo. It is a very dense, very supportive and a somewhat springy type of memory foam that resembles latex products. The ventilation holes may lead you to believe it is mushy and cuddly as I was expecting it to be. The size is true to its description and turned out to be too tall for my shorter neck due to the resilient nature of the foam pushing back instead of cradling. There was no more than the usual faint memory foam odor with this pillow as some other memory foam products off gas terribly. All in all, it is a very good pillow for someone with a longer neck or a side sleeper with large shoulders who is looking for taller, firmer support.
I've tried a lot of pillows. This one is very comfortable.
When I first layed my head on this pillow I almost instantly fell in love with it. It is everthing memory foam shoud be. The first few nights were fine. However, the more I slept on it the more I lost sleep. I really wanted this pillow to work, but just couldn't. Its much to thick and I was waking up with a head/neck ache contantly. I bought my husband one as well and he started complaining about the same thing. If they made a 4" version in the Jumbo, I would buy it in a minute.
Great pillow. Bought one for Christmas as a gift and had to buy one for myself
This was my first memory foam pillow, and while it is nice quality and doesn't heat up like some memory foam, it was too thick for me. It felt very firm and rather than gently conforming to my head, it seemed to hold my head too high and at a somewhat uncomfortable angle. I rated it 5 stars anyway because I passed it on to my dad and he loves it. At 6 feet he is over a foot taller than me, so perhaps height has something to do with it. He also has chronic neck pain from cervical disc degeneration, and says the pillow has helped tremendously. My mom loves it because she says he stopped snoring with this pillow!

All Rise...
Judge David Johnson feels almost as bad for Rangers fans as he does for Red Sox fans. Almost.
Editor's Note
Our review of St. Louis Cardinals: 2011 World Series Champions, published December 11th, 2011, is also available.
The Charge
The Red Sox suck.
The Case
In 2011, professional baseball bore witness to one of the great postseason runs, and arguably the greatest World Series ever played. The St. Louis Cardinals were far from world-beaters during the dog days of summer, sitting 10.5 games out of a playoff spot in August. But they put together a run and found themselves fighting for a shot at the Series title. Behind the power of Albert Pujols' bat, Chris Carpenter's ace pitching, and the magic of the legendary David Freese (huh?), the Cardinals tore through the best the NL had to offer and defeated the Texas Rangers in a ridiculously entertaining seven-game series for the championship. Major League Baseball brings you their story.
This is a terrific championship Blu-ray, and though all of these post-season tributes from the four major sports tend to be high-end, the MLB crew seems to put out presentations that consistently jockey for the top spot. The Cardinals are beneficiaries of one of the best I've seen, a production that milks the potent drama of the St. Louis games to great effect. Incorporating fantastic in-game footage (necessarily slowed down of course for maximum impact!), sweeping orchestral scores, and the super-serious narrative inflection of Jon Hamm, the producers ensure you're not just watching well-paid professional athletes swing a ball at a bat…but watching history.
And you know, they might have a point. Just take a look at Game 6 of the World Series, when twice the Cards were down to their last strike and prolonged the game, giving local boy David Freese the opportunity to crush the game-winner. Movie scripts don't get that far-fetched! But that's how it played out and MLB wants you to soak it up.
St. Louis Cardinals: 2011 World Series Champions runs for 90 minutes and very little time is spent on the regular season. You get mentions of the injury trouble the team had to face out of the gate and some of their lapses, but it's soon onto the playoffs to face Philly and Milwaukee. These were compelling match-ups in their own right, what with the latest Philly "super-team" to crap their pants and the surprising Brewer team apparently PED-enhanced. But the footage rockets fairly quickly through both of these series, with the bulk of the screen time reserved for World Series.
As the textbook dictates, game footage is mixed with interviews of players and managers (from both teams), adding context to the on-field drama. The feature culminates in the post-game celebration from the clubhouse to the victory parade route.
On the technical end, St. Louis Cardinals: 2011 World Series Champions (Blu-ray) is magnificent, the 1.78:1/1080p HD transfer absolutely shining. Sporting events are often the best exhibitions of high definition and it shows here. A DTS-HD 5.1 Master audio mix actively supports the great visual fidelity. Extras: brief segments on Lance Berkman and Tony La Russa, original broadcast snippets of the postseason, World Series highlights and the celebration, footage of the parade, and the complete NLDS Game 5…which is nice and all, but why not give us the magical Game 6 of the Fall Classic?
The Verdict
Not Guilty. (Sucks that Pujols blew out of town, huh?)
Give us your feedback!
Did we give St. Louis Cardinals: 2011 World Series Champions (Blu-ray) a fair trial? yes / no
What's "fair"? Whether positive or negative, our reviews should be unbiased, informative, and critique the material on its own merits.

Just 25 Americans Died As A Result Of Terrorism Last Year — Less Than Traffic Accidents, The Flu, Or Dog Bites
One of the most common themes in post-9/11 politics is for public figures to campaign based on the public's fear of terrorism. Candidates from across the political spectrum regularly point to "increased threats from terrorists at home and abroad" as the reason you should elect them so they can keep you safe.
While combating terrorism is important and a crucial part of the nation's national security strategy, the State Department's annual Country Reports On Terrorism, which was released late last week, shows that its importance as a leading topic of public concern may be overstated. McClatchy's Warren P. Strobel notes that the State Department report finds that only 25 American civilians were killed by terrorism worldwide last year:
There were just 25 U.S. noncombatant fatalities from terrorism worldwide. (The US government definition of terrorism excludes attacks on U.S. military personnel). While we don't have the figures at hand, undoubtedly more American citizens died overseas from traffic accidents or intestinal illnesses than from terrorism.
Matt Yglesias compares the numbers and finds that Strobel's hunches about traffic accidents are right. He writes, "26 Americans died in vehicle accidents in Mexico between 1 August 2009 and 1 January 2010, so it's safe to say you're dramatically likelier to die abroad in a traffic accident than a terrorist attack."
But it isn't just foreign traffic accidents that are deadlier to Americans than terrorism. According to data from the Centers for Disease Control, more than 13,000 Americans died from the common seasonal flu between January and April 2009, with "no fewer than 800 flu-related deaths" occuring every single week, meaning that 32 times as many Americans died as a result of the flu in a single week during this period of 2009 than died during the entire year from terrorism.
Yet if Americans want to find a threat more dangerous to their lives than terrorism, they don't even need to go outside and get into their car or interact with their neighbors and catch the flu. All they have to do is look to their canine companions. DogsBite.org, which compiles press reports of dog bite fatalities, recorded 32 reported incidents of dogs fatally killing humans last year.
Once again, the threat of terrorism is a serious national security concern and should be seen as such. But given its relatively low fatality rate in comparison to other threats to humanity — the State Department's report found that 58,142 people were killed by terrorist attacks worldwide in 2009, a fraction of the three million children who died from easily preventable malnutrition and hunger a year before — a more reasoned assessment of our priorities is needed.

Hey Stackoverflow I'm working on my homework and I'm trying to reverse a circular-linked deque without a sentinel. Here are my data structures:
struct DLink {
TYPE value;
struct DLink * next;
struct DLink * prev;
struct cirListDeque {
int size;
struct DLink *back;
Here's my approach to reversing the deque:
void reverseCirListDeque(struct cirListDeque* q) {
struct DLink* current;
struct DLink* temp;
temp = q->back->next;
q->back->next = q->back->prev;
q->back->prev = temp;
current = q->back->next;
while(current != q->back) {
temp = current->next;
current->next = current->prev;
current->prev = temp;
current = current->next;
However when I run it and put values 1, 2 and 3 on it (TYPE is just a alias for int in this case) and reverse it I get 2, 1, 3. Does anyone have any ideas as to what I may be doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.

Susan Boyle's new song to compete with Celine Dion's version of Titanic's hit :) The often scathing critic...
Susan Boyle's new song to compete with Celine Dion's version of Titanic's hit :) The often scathing critic Simon Cowell called Susan Boyle -- the breakout singing sensation from "Britain's Got Talent" -- a "little tiger." Judge Piers Morgan admits that he expected Susan Boyle's audition to be a joke before she began singing. During a taping of the show Friday, she nailed a verse of Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On" after King asked her to sing. "Amazing. That was just absolutely stunning," said "Britain's Got Talent" judge Piers Morgan, who was also a guest. "To sing that with no musical backing is unbelievable. You have the voice of an angel, Susan." The 47-year-old Boyle's frumpy attire and awkward mannerisms drew snickers and eye-rolling from her audience before she belted out a pitch-perfect number from "Les Miserables" at an audition for the talent contest, making her an overnight sensation. Watch Boyle sing on Larry King » An unemployed charity worker who lives alone with her cat in Scotland, Boyle has inspired millions with a performance that flies in the face of pop music's penchant for pre-processed princesses. A clip of her audition had more than 19 million views on YouTube by Friday evening. Boyle, who did a repeat performance of "I Dreamed a Dream" via satellite on CNN's "Anderson Cooper 360" Thursday night, told King she was aware of the snickers her appearance prompted at the audition. "That doesn't bother me because I knew I had to get on with my act ... ," said Boyle, again speaking by satellite. "I wasn't sure how I would be received, so I just thought I'd give it a whirl." Morgan, too, acknowledged the laughter, including his own. Don't Miss Singer 'gobsmacked' by overnight stardom Unlikely diva grabs A-list attention Never-kissed woman wows Cowell Cowell considers life after 'Idol' "I sort of feel like apologizing to Susan," he said. "I'm sorry, because we did not give you anything like the respect we should have done when you first came out." He said the judges had been through a long day with "lots of terrible auditions." "And then you came out and we thought you were going to be a bit of a joke act, to be honest with you," he said. "And then I can remember ... that second when you had begun to sing, and I had never heard a more surprising, extraordinary voice coming out of somebody so unexpected." To win the show, which would give her the chance to sing in front of Queen Elizabeth II, Boyle must survive a live semifinal next month and then a final performance if she gets through that. "She's the most odds-on favorite ever on 'Britain's Got Talent' at this stage of the competition," Morgan said. "But Susan knows there are two big hurdles left. Anything can happen in a live show." There's already been talk of a recording contract and world tours for Boyle. But she said she's staying focused on the competition for now. She said she has no plans to get a makeover or alter her wardrobe -- "Why should I? Why should I change?" -- but did predict one big lifestyle change. "I won't be lonely," she said. "I certainly won't be lonely. Don't expect Susan Boyle -- the Scottish singing sensation who won over judges on Britain's Got Talent -- to change her look. "I won't let Simon Cowell take her to his dentist and I certainly won't let her near his hairdresser," judge Amanda Holden tells the U.K. Mirror. See the weight ups and downs of former Idol contestants The frumpy 48-year-old "needs to stay exactly as she is because that's the reason we love her," Holden insists. "She just looks like anybody who could live on your street." "The minute we turn her into a glamour-puss is when it's spoiled," she says. See which former Idol stars have gotten married or have had children A makeover "can perhaps come later when she has signed the album deal and conquered America," Holden adds. "For now we'll keep her exactly as she is because that's why we've all fallen in love with her. I think it's the underdog thing." See the worst Idol contestants of all time More than 11 million viewers have watched her perform "I Dreamed a Dream" from the musical Les Miserables, and she has attracted a fierce celeb following, including Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore , who said Boyle's performance "made me teary!" Has all the fanfare helped Boyle - who said she's "never been kissed" - find a mate? "No comment," she said, with a laugh, on Friday's Today show. She said the intense worldwide reaction "hasn't sunk in yet." My friend singer Marco Palli dedicates to Susan Boyle For his Song "You" at his website MarcoPalli.com or at www.myspace.com/MarcoPalli

Weekend Gardener
We harvested some fantastic looking potatoes and garlic over the weekend; I am so excited about the garden this year because it is performing so well! We need to wait a few more weeks on the onions as we wait for their "tops to flop" which allows them to store better. We have enjoyed some fresh green onion and bulbs but for the bulk of the crop we to want harvest and cure them properly so they will store well.

A little boy opened his lunchbox and, peeking inside, saw a peanut butter and dill pickle sandwich smeared with mayonnaise and ketchup.
"Oh, another of these crazy sandwiches," he sighed as he pulled it out and took a big bite.
The next day, the little boy opened his lunch box and exclaimed: "Won't you look at this, another one of those peanut butter and dill pickle sandwiches smeared with mayonnaise and ketchup."
On Dec. 8, 2014, no one got eaten alive on the Discovery Channel's "Eaten Alive" – and some viewers who tuned in to see carnage were outraged.
On May 6 of the same year, actress Shailene Woodley outraged feminists by announcing that she's not a feminist, and on Aug. 28, Hello Kitty fans were outraged when the Sanrio company said Hello Kitty "is not a cat."
Cedar Hill Baptist Church
We were greatly blessed today as Ben Allen shared God's Word with us. Using scriptures from Mark and John, he challenged us to answer the question "What do our lives say Christianity is?" We too often fall into the trap of sharing our religion instead of Christ. Sometimes we know all the "churchy answers" but we don't truly know Christ. It was great to have Helen Allen and Mary Cobb and her family back worshipping with us today.

Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity
Capitol Hill Critics Second-Guess Agencies Using...
Keep the Opportunities, Lose the Opportunists
A research team led by principal investigator Kang Zhang, M.D., Ph.D., professor of ophthalmology at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) has been awarded a five-year, $4.66 million NIH grant to investigate the regenerative potential of retinal cells. The long-term goal is to restore visual function lost through diseases such as macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa.
Dr. Zhang is a professor at UCSD's Shiley Eye Center and director of UCSD's Institute of Genomic Medicine. Co-principal investigators are Sheng Ding, Ph.D., from The Scripps Research Institute, and Thomas Reh, Ph.D., from the University of Washington.
Some vertebrates, such as goldfish and newts, have a remarkable ability to regenerate a lost limb or eye—something it was thought no mammal can do. However, Dr. Zhang's group recently showed proof of principle at a small-scale level in mice by turning Muller cells into a type of retinal neuron.
"The human genome is quite similar to that of a newt, but we humans seem to have lost the potential to regenerate our own cells, possibly due to some inhibitory mechanisms," Dr. Zhang says. "We are seeking small molecule chemicals that can block these inhibitions and consequently unlock humans' regenerative potential."
Muller cells are abundant and have the ability to regenerate nerve cells after retinal injury in fish. They usually play a supporting role in the central nervous system neurons of humans, such as those present in the eye or brain.
Dr. Zhang's group will develop and apply high-throughput screening to more than 100,000 small molecules to identify those that will enhance Muller glia cells' ability to reprogram and differentiate into retinal neurons in mammals. Identification, optimization, and characterization of chemical tools will provide new avenues for development of cell-based therapy as well as conventional small molecule therapeutics for regenerative medicine.
"Our ultimate goal is to use a chemical approach to turn on the regenerative potential of hibernating stem cells such as Muller cells by introducing a small molecule directly into the eye, perhaps even by eye drop or pill," Dr. Zhang explains. He added that there is no need to transplant cells, but instead the body's own cells would be used.

Former BYU QB Jake Heaps 'chomping at the bit' to get back in a real-game situation
"He knows the offense well; he sat out a year so he got to get the offense down," Sims said of Heaps during Big 12 Media Day. "He's really been on his Ps and Qs about offense and whatnot and just being a leader. That's one thing, on offense we rely on the quarterback as being the leader, and he's stepped up and he's doing a great job of that."
Heaps knows the key to getting the Kansas offense on track is by improving the passing attack.
"I think it's going to be very key for us to be able to be balanced. We have a great running back in James Sims and we have a great running back group, arguably the best running back group in the country," Heaps said. "As a quarterback, that makes you feel comfortable. At the same time, you want to alleviate the pressure off them, you want to be able to get so they're not facing eight man boxes every time. If we can be balanced as an offense, I think we're going to be very tough to stop."
Two other weapons Heaps will have at his disposal this year are halfback Tony Pierson and wide receiver Justin McCay.
Last season, Pierson was second on the team in both rushing and receiving yards (790 rushing, 291 receiving) and he added four touchdowns. Kansas is looking to use him in a more versatile role, like West Virginia did with Tavon Austin in 2012. Last year, Austin had 2,910 all-purpose yards and 17 touchdowns and is now on the St. Louis Rams roster after being the 15th player taken overall in the NFL Draft.
"We're sitting there watching tape on Austin do these amazing things and we're going, man we've got a guy just like that. And why aren't we using him in that capacity," Heaps said of Pierson. "Instead of having to give him the ball and have everyone know where he is getting the ball, now all he has to do is get the ball and make one or two guys miss and he's gone. It's going to put us in a position to have more explosive plays and be a more balanced offense."
McCay is a 6-foot-2, 213-pound transfer from Oklahoma, and will also be playing his first season for the Jayhawks. He could be a go-to player for Kansas in the passing game.
"You have a big, physical receiver like Justin, it's always good as a quarterback because you know you can throw it in his frame and he's going to go up and get it and secure the football," Heaps said. "Justin and I go way back, we played together in the Army All-American game, we completed a couple passes in that game. When we both transferred to Kansas, it was really fun. We were on the scout team together and developed chemistry." Heaps is also looking forward to playing in a conference that has built a reputation for high-octane offenses led by strong-armed quarterbacks. Among the recent Big 12 quarterback products are Baylor's Robert Griffin III, West Virginia's Geno Smith, Oklahoma State's Brandon Weeden, and Oklahoma's Landry Jones and Sam Bradford. This year, Texas' David Ash is the most experienced quarterback in the conference.
"I really came here to Kansas because of coach Weis and the pedigree that he has and the relationship that we've had over the years," Heaps said. "It's been a pleasure working with him on a consistent basis and (quarterbacks coach Ron) Powlus, it's been so much fun. But being in a league that throws the ball around and has these high-octane offenses is really, really fun to be a part of, that is for sure, and I'm looking forward to it."

Hello, this is a simple and maybe dumb question but I was left with a wordpress site up and running by a local programer and he will not tell me how or why when I make changes and updates to my site they don't show on my site. I use the admin address where the site was located before it went to the hosting server and that is where I do the changes. Do I have to some how tell the admin page to update the site on the server. I have been making changes to it for weeks now but they never appear online. I have cleared my browser cache. Any help greatly appreciated.
Thank you, Tim

REVIEW SHEET EXERCISE 8 Chemical and Physical Processes of Digestion NAME: Courtney Boyd LAB TIME/DATE: July 23, 2010 Carbohydrate Digestion The following questions refer to Activity 1: Assessing Starch Digestion by Salivary Amylase. 1. At what pH did you see the highest activity of salivary amylase? pH 7.0 . Why? • This is because these were able to break down sugars such as glucose and maltose and convert them into starch. 2. How do you know that the amylase did not have any contaminating maltose? • I know that the amylase did not have any contaminating maltose because there was no starch present. 3. What effect did boiling have on enzyme activity? Why? • It showed that there was starch present and no presence of reducing sugars. This is because it was used as a control to show which comparisons can be made against a standard. 4. Describe the substrate and the subunit product of amylase. • The substrate and the subunit product of amylase are starch and maltose. Starch decreases during the digestion process as sugar increases and starch is then digested into maltose. The following questions refer to Activity 2: Assessing Cellulose Digestion. 5. Does amylase use cellulose as a substrate? Explain. • No, amylase cannot use cellulose as a substrate because it is only able to use or digest starch and starch can be easily broken down into a disaccharide such as maltose. Cellulose is mainly found in plant walls; however, humans pass it through the digestive system as roughage or fiber. 6. Did freezing have an effect on the activity of amylase? Explain.

Flu Spreading Rapidly Across the Country
Written by Nicole Porter
Last updated on January 11, 2013 @ 7:40PM
Created on January 11, 2013 @ 6:03PM
Even though we're not even technically half way through the active flu season, cases seem to be on the rise. Some big cities are seeing more cases than usual and some treatment drugs and flu shots are running low.
In this area, quite a few people getting rather sick recently.5 News was told there have been a few diagnosed cases of the flu at the Doctor's Quick Care in Anmoore but there's even more people with a virus.
Like usual, this virus is running rampant through the schools. Doctors have been seeing a lot of kids in the office with flu like symptoms but it's not just kids. Adults are coming in too. The problem is that some people wait too many days to actually go to the doctors. Once it is in your system, it's a little harder to cut the time of the sickness. If you can, get to the doctors within the first 72 hours after you feel flu-like symptoms coming on. That way, doctors can get some medicine in your system.
Even though we're into the flu season, there's still time to get your flu shot. Some places may be running low on the shots but the Doctor's Quick care does have them and so do some other places in the surrounding area. Regardless if you feel the need to get the flu shot, you should be very aware of your surroundings so you don't pick up the flu.
"There's a shortage of medications in some areas. The TamiFlu is running short. You have to watch what you're being exposed to. You have to wash your hands, good hygiene technique. Try to rest, fluids, anti-inflammatories for fevers," said Dr. Thomas Lauderman, of Doctor's Quick Care.
If you do feel sick, stay home. There's no need to risk getting others sick. Also remember basic hygiene skills during this time of year.

Acer K330 projector
This small projector is bright and light
- Small and light
- Brighter than most pico projectors
- Brightness is still low
- Minor artifacting at native resolution
Bottom Line
Acer's K330 is a slim and light LED projector, but it has a brighter lamp than most. It's bright enough for presentations or videos in most settings -- only bright rooms are a problem. We did notice a few image artifacts at its native resolution though.
Price$ 1,059.00 (AUD)
Best Deals (Selling at 2 stores)
Special Offers
The Acer K330 is a LED projector, using the same technology as the portable Acer C20 and BenQ Joybee GP2. It's not a battery-powered model though — it's designed to be used for business presentations on the road, but requires external power.
Acer K330: Design and setup
The Acer K330 is small for a business data projector. It weighs only 1.3kg, and at 217x168x47mm it's small enough to fit in a briefcase or larger laptop satchel.
The front of the projector is mostly a wide fan exhaust port, but the Acer K330's lens is offset to the right side. The K330 comes with a plastic lens cap that's attached with a short lanyard, so there's no chance of losing it. Next to the lens mount is a small infrared receiver for the projector's included remote control.
The remote control isn't necessary, though, since the control panel on the rear top of the Acer K330 has all the necessary buttons clearly labelled. You'll be using the central menu button and directional pad most, along with the power toggle — the majority of the projector's settings are laid out in a simple on-screen menu.
Height adjustment for the Acer K330 comes courtesy of one front foot, which twists to raise or lower the projector as needed. Two adjustable rear feet handle unstable or tilted surfaces. There's vertical and horizontal keystone adjustment but no physical lens shift.
The main inputs for the Acer K330 are HDMI and VGA, although there's also a composite video and combination audio-video 3.5mm input jack. The projector can also read directly from its SD card and USB host ports to display a variety of video, audio, photo and data files including MP4, MP3, JPEG, PDF, DOC and Powerpoint. The Acer K330 has a single built-in 2 Watt speaker, which works over the HDMI input.
Acer K330: Specifications and performance
The Acer K330 uses a 1280x800pixel DLP chip, and its LED lamp produces 500 lumens of brightness in full-power mode. Changing to the Eco mode drops this by 100 lumens. This is almost double the brightness of the 300 lumens we're seeing as standard on most LED-based projector, but it's still a long way short of the 1200-or-higher lumen ratings of the vast majority of traditional projectors.
Generally, and especially for presentations, the K330 does a reasonable job. We did notice a small amount of artifacting — some minor image noise and sharpening flaws — on the native resolution output from our test Apple MacBook Pro notebook over HDMI, but not enough to be visible or distracting during viewing.
We kept the Acer K330 in its full brightness mode for the majority of our testing, since at its full 500 lumen brightness setting it's only just bright enough to be seen in a fluorescent-lit room. We didn't test it in a daylight-lit room but we don't think the picture would be acceptably bright. It's fine for dim or darkened rooms, but we would still have liked the projector to be brighter overall. When LED projectors crack the 1000 lumen mark we think they'll find more mainstream adoption.
We found the Acer K330 performed best at a screen size of around 50in, with 1.5m from the front of the projector to the projection surface. Any further and the screen starts to dim more than is acceptable in a bright room — the Acer K330 can project a maximum screen size of 100in at 3m distance, but this is restricted to use in a darkened room.
There is a small amount of light fall-off towards the outer edges and corners of the projected image, but by and large the Acer K330 produces a consistent image. Sharpness is good across the frame, and the 1280x800pixel native resolution means the K330 is well-suited to displaying 720p high-definition video. DVD video playback also looks good, although there's some minor scaling artifacts introduced when the projector is displaying a Full HD 1080p signal.
Acer K330: Conclusion
The Acer K330 may not be the brightest projector but in the right room it's able to create a good quality image. With the caveat of its moderate brightness, we liked its small size and portability.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Some of my attendees have noticed me using one of the new SanDisk Cruzer Micro 4GB flash drives during my presentations, and have asked about it.
I'm taking advantage of a new feature in Windows Vista: Windows ReadyBoost.
This is a cool feature that allows Windows Vista to use flash memory to increase performance.
Since I'm typically running VPCs for my presentations, which usually need as much memory as I can possibly allocate to them, this comes in extremely handy to improve performance during my shows.
For those of you wanting more details (which probably means most of you), my buddy John Baker blogged some more info about it.

I'm working on a rails app where a user is presented with a random question from a user selected category. If the user has answered the question, I would like for it to never be presented to the user again.
The answer to the question is stored in a memories table. The memories table acts as a join table between the user and the question. In the rails console I can isolate all of the users who have answered a specific question using question = Question.first, and question.users will return an array of user objects who have answered that question.
In rails, I cannot figure out how to exclude answered questions from being presented again.
As a heads up, I'm about 12 weeks into my rails/ruby development. I have a suspicion this is so easy that I just can't see it.
My QuestionsController - this works to present a random question, but presents even if it has been answered by the user previously:
class QuestionsController < ApplicationController
def index
@category = Category.find(params[:category_id])
@question = Question.where(category_id: @category.id).sample
def show
@question = Question.find(params[:id])
Question Model
class Question < ActiveRecord::Base
validates_presence_of :category_id
has_many :memories,
inverse_of: :question
has_many :users,
through: :memories
belongs_to :category,
inverse_of: :questions
User Model
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
validates_presence_of :first_name, :last_name, :role
# Include default devise modules. Others available are:
# :confirmable, :lockable, :timeoutable and :omniauthable
devise :database_authenticatable, :registerable,
:recoverable, :rememberable, :trackable, :validatable
def is_admin?
role == 'admin'
has_many :memories,
inverse_of: :user,
dependent: :destroy
has_many :questions,
through: :memories
Memory Model
class Memory < ActiveRecord::Base
validates_presence_of :user, :question
belongs_to :question,
inverse_of: :memories
belongs_to :user,
inverse_of: :memories
validates :question, uniqueness: { :scope => :user }
The validation in my memory model prevents a user from answering a question they have already answered - so that's a step in the right direction. I'd like the question to never show up again once answered.
This is my first post here. Excited to join the community and hope to be able to pay it forward one day. Thank you for any guidance.
