Skill Level Beginner
Just as we can run our JavaScript through a separate program to minify it, we can also run it through another program to check its quality, and to check it for common problems. Now in contrast to minification where there are many different tools to choose from, there is one best known JavaScript code quality checker, which is JSLint by Douglas Crockford, whose the JavaScript architect at Yahoo! You can find this at jslint.com. With this what you can do is take some code--I have got a block of JavaScript here--I'm just going to copy, take it over the JSLint, paste it in there, and click this button that says JSLint, to check it.
Now, when you do this it's going to complain about a lot. JSLint will point out every little thing you do that isn't perfect, from the amount of whitespace you use between your operators, to how many characters you indent your code, to whether you declare all your variables using var, whether you are declaring your functions before you use them, and a thousand other things. I can see that just with this little amount of code I have got a whole bunch of problems here. Now these errors have nothing to do with whether or not your code actually works.
It might work just fine and JSLint will still complain about a hundred different things in 10 lines of code. This is quite similar that if you take a web page that you know works perfectly well and run it through a formal HTML and CSS validator, you're typically going to find a bunch of things that technically aren't valid. It's kind of the same thing here. And as with HTML and CSS validation, if you take the time and fix all those little things, it will make your code better, but there are a couple of features to be aware of, so to not get frustrated.
Now I could do this in a couple of ways. If I actually added inside my functions just a line, say here, that was "use strict" inside double quotes, and just ended with a semicolon. It looks little strange here because we are just putting in a string, and that's intentional, because ECMAScript 3 doesn't really understand this, and all it's going to see here is a string literal and just ignore it. But the very up-to-date browsers actually do recognize this as trying to enforce Strict mode.
However, if I click JSLint, what I will see is okay, our first error is gone, but if I go down a little bit, I'll probably find it somewhere else. There we go, Missing 'use strict' statement, if I didn't add that to all my functions. Well, if I know what it's complaining about, what I can do is come down towards the bottom of JSLint and here I find a whole bunch of options that I can check to allow JSLint to tolerate certain things. And one of them is the Tolerate missing 'use strict' pragma that use strict instruction.
So back down to the Options, and I'm checking the one on the left here that says Assume a browser. We run JSLint again. We've gotten passed that issue, but we still got problems. This next one here, Expected 'intervalHandle' at column 5, not column 1. Well, what does that mean? Here it's literally just complaining about the correct level of indentation. If you see that this line beginning intervalHandle equals is inside our function, but it's not indented the same way that the rest are. It should be indented with four spaces.
That's what JSLint likes. So if I do that, we run JSLint again, and we go on. Now quite similar to that, what you'll see is there is a lot of complaints here, missing space between comma and number. It likes us to leave a space after the comma between parameters. Again, we don't have to. This is not going to change how the code works, but it's got its own set of presentational rules. Missing space between current position and the plus equal sign. What it's complaining about there are, for example, things like this line here, where it lacks a single space around the operators.
Now what you'll often find is that JSLint will complain about a lot of this, so one of the other options I could do, if I don't want to fix everything right now, is I could allow it to tolerate messy whitespace. So I am going to go back and run it again. Well, we are getting smaller here. Problem at line 13 character 34, animate box was used before it was defined. What does that mean? Well, we are calling this setInterval function passing in animateBox. The issue is is the function animateBox isn't defined to later on in the code.
Again, while this will work, best practices say that our function should be defined before we write code that use them. So this function animateBox should be defined before I use it in an argument. So what I am going to do is cut the entire function, and I just take it up and paste it in here, and then we run JSLint again, and we're getting okay there, we are getting down. Next one, it's saying, Type confusion, number and string, and the line it's complaining about is this, where we are actually concatenating a number, which is current position, and the string px.
Well, in fact, I know this is okay. This is what I want to do. I am actually trying to create a string that says 200 PX or 300 PX, so I am absolutely fine that that happens. So I need to also go and tell it down here to tolerate type confusion. JSLint. I could just ignore that as well. And now finally, we have something here Problem at line 21, character 9: something was used before it was defined, and this I just added so we could actually see a problem here.
And the problem is that I just start using a variable, something = something +1. Well, this should really have been defined somewhere else with the term var, but it hasn't been defined probably. So I could either delete the line that says something = something + 1, or I could go and define the variable up towards the top, so it's accessible there, or even somewhere else in the function. And then we have no errors. But as you can see, JSLint will always complain about your code, so try not to be too upset when it complains about every single line that you've written.
It is very picky indeed. It's supposed to be picky. That's what JSLint is designed to do. But as you become comfortable with JavaScript, it's a really good exercise to make the effort to understand what it's complaining about, even as--what I did, I kind of ignored a of few of those errors and told it to be tolerated, at least I understood what its problem was.

For the first time I can recall, the big tech stories of the year were also major political stories.
Edward Snowden's revelations about the National Security Agency and the botched debut of HealthCare.gov dominated President Barack Obama's end-of-year news conference. I don't need to rehash the details, but both issues were the reason Obama summoned tech leaders -- including Yahoo (YHOO) CEO Marissa Mayer, Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg,

Reading V LFC aftermath !!
You know sometimes Colin I really scratch my head at how we can watch the same game but see something obviously completely different. I'll leave the performance by McCarthy to one side, it's not just my eyes who say he had a good match but almost everything I've read about the game, but if you and Sofa think otherwise do be it.
But I will ask how dominating possession and throwing almost everything but the kitchen sink at the Reading goal is a sign of poor attitude? If it was just side to side or backward passing all game, which I know you've accused the BR tactics of amounting to, maybe you'd have a point, but as you can't really get to the oppositions box let alone take a shot if your only passing backward or sideways, I 'm wondering how on earth we got so many shots on goal.
I'm also curious why because a man standing in the rain not believing what he's seeing is evidence we must be bound for the relegation part of the table next term. I mean considering BR took a team who actually performed (results don't lie remember) no better than a relegation battler in the second half of last season, and imo moved them forward, why because he's not jumping up and down does it mean we'll go back to the form of last season?Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
Dave...I conceded that the keeper played a blinder but if u analyse his saves many of the shots were snatched at and either driven wide or straight at him...Sturidge was particularly guilty in my opinion.Of course we made it into the final third regularly but the final pass was always woeful.We made it into the final third regularly because unlike against WHU this hapless outfit gave us plenty of room down the middle which again imo we did not clinically exploit. It doesnt matter how many shots u have on goal our build up considering how much space these clowns were giving us was way too laborious many other sides in the top half of the table would have cut this team to ribbons given the same amount of space...u make chances and miss them all in my book that isnt all down to the goalkeeper playing a blinder its poor finishing andconsidering the chances we should have finished better it should have been at least 4.0. I have the feeling that Harry Redknapp is going to be available end of season...could he be our new manager ? Certainly he would if appointe be able to bring in Samba AND Loic.

Don't have the match stats in front of me, but think I remember we got 12 shots on target that required a save or block. I remember one Gerrard shot being blocked, and of course Suarez had one headed off the line, so that leaves 10. I do agree there were a few that were not the strongest of efforts, but most I think were respectable, and some that did require the very best from the keeper. Now that was just what was on target, with Suarez hitting the post on the free kick, and Coutinho just missing by a foot or so, so seems like a fairly offensive effort to me.
At the very least, while I'd say there were 3 or 4 efforts that required a world class effort to prevent goals, some might say on the other shots the quality was not there. I'd not agree with that conclusion, however surely if one did, it would be something down to the players and not the coach, the tactics, or even the attitude if they just did not execute the final ball, despite getting everything else right.

|Fast automatic registration of range images from 3D imaging systems using sphere targets
|January 01, 2008
|3D imaging systems are line of sight instruments and multiple scans from different locations are often needed to get a good representation of an entire scene. Therefore, registration of different datasets to a common coordinate system is required. Automatic registration depends on correct identification of common points in the individual scans. Determination of these common points in large datasets is far from trivial and may be very time consuming. Target-based registration simplifies calculations which greatly reduce computation time but this approach depends on a reliable shape detector. Centers of sphere targets are convenient candidates for common points used in registration. This paper describes a method to rapidly find multiple spheres of known radius in a large dataset obtained from a 3D imaging system. The proposed method requires a dataset to be in spherical coordinates and regularly gridded. A lab was scanned from two locations at three different scan densities. Four spheres were located in the lab, and the total number of points hitting the four spheres was a small fraction (10-4) of all the points in the dataset. In all cases, the computation time to identify the spheres is a fraction (10 %) of the scanning time. The identification of the spheres depends on scan density and distances of the spheres to the scanner. At the highest scan density, all four sphere centers were correctly determined in both scanner positions with no false positives.

Behaving Naturally
Smithsonian National Zoo Fujifilm curatorial resident Erika Bauer specializes in studying why animals behave the way they do.
by Jodi Legge
When Erika Bauer came to work at the National Zoo in April 2007, she could not have imagined the impact she would have in the area of animal behavioral studies. Bauer not only initiated new and important research, she also started an extremely successful internship program focused on observing animal behaviors and investigating how these behaviors can indicate the overall health and happiness of animals living in a zoo environment.
Bauer came to Washington, D.C., with a doctoral degree in psychology and a strong focus on animal behavior. Originally from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, she always had a love for animals and worked in animal shelters during her high school years. As an undergraduate at John Carroll University in Ohio, she had the opportunity to work with a visiting professor researching chimpanzee behavior at the Cleveland Zoo. In that first foray into zoo research, Bauer spent many hours collecting data about how often the chimps used the environmental enrichment devices provided to them, and how social they were with one another.
This jump-started her passion for behavioral research, which she continued while working at the Pittsburgh Zoo after college, and then by pursuing a graduate degree at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. Her doctoral work focused on a comparative study of social play style in three species: chimpanzees, bonobos, and domestic dogs. "The dog study provided a convenient reason to go to the dog park in the name of research!" she says. Bauer was chosen from many interested and qualified candidates to be the National Zoo's first Fujifilm curatorial resident as part of a two-year fellowship program; the Zoo didn't have a behaviorist on staff and was very interested in her specific area of expertise.
"At the National Zoo, my research can have a direct impact on the animals I study," says Bauer. "So this is essentially my dream job."
Soon after she started her fellowship, Bauer realized that there was enormous interest in her research. National Zoo curators and keepers had many questions about the animals they cared for. Why does the male sloth bear pace back and forth, and what would reduce that behavior? How does altering the tank environment or introducing new objects or stimuli affect behavior of octopus and cuttlefish? How does the Zoo environment, with its high visitation rate and ongoing construction noise, affect the behavior of the animals that live here?

Inquiring Interns
The first thing Bauer did was to develop an internship program focused specifically on behavioral research. During each three-month term, these interns would be assigned a specific question to study and would develop a hypothesis about a specific aspect of animal behavior that was of interest to them.
One intern, Courtney McLaughlan, wanted to study the behavior of the Zoo's Asian elephants. "I decided to study the dominance-related interactions between the two female elephants, Shanthi and Ambika, to see which one was more assertive and which one was more submissive," she says.
Once a hypothesis was established, the intern worked on developing an ethogram—a list of behaviors related to the research question, and their corresponding behavioral definitions. This research tool allows the interns to catalog data during eight weeks of field research. This typically includes spending several hours each day observing specific animal behaviors and working closely with animal keepers. Throughout the observation phase, the interns continuously collect and enter data into a spreadsheet.
For McLaughlan's elephant study, she monitored Shanthi and Ambika to look for assertive behaviors, such as pushing, headnudging, and claiming food from the other elephant's mouth, trunk, or body. She also watched for deferent behaviors—backing away from or relinquishing food to the other female.
"My average day began earlier then most of the other interns. I would come in at 7:30 a.m. to observe the elephants until at least 9 a.m., and I would come back for another observation midday," says McLaughlan.

She observed that Shanthi was the one that usually initiated interactions, and she exhibited assertive behaviors in the vast majority of interactions. But she also noted that keepers had observed some striking examples of Ambika asserting dominance over Shanthi. Another interesting twist was that interactions between the two females were much more likely to occur if Kandula, Shanthi's male offspring, was nearby.
"Data collected in this study indicate that these two female elephants display the sort of pattern that is characteristic of an egalitarian social relationship, and Kandula is an important factor in their interactions with each other," explains Bauer. "No single pair stands alone in such a tight-knit group. The relationship between Shanthi and Ambika is complex, and it's these sorts of complexities that make it fun for researchers—we're always developing new questions to answer and examining the puzzle of social life."
After collecting the data, McLaughlan and the other interns are required to conduct a detailed analysis of the data, write a scientific paper, and present their results to Zoo staff. Their presentations include recommendations for improving animal care based on the results of each study.
All along the way, the interns have the opportunity to interact with Zoo staff, who Bauer says are vital to the research. "One of the most important aspects of this residency was learning just how important the keepers are to our animals here at the National Zoo," says Bauer. "Zookeepers have an incredible amount of work to do every day, yet they are so in tune to the needs of the animals they care for, and can detect subtle behavioral differences that most people wouldn't notice. Without their support and their concern for the animals, we would never have been able to conduct this type of research."
Research and Results

During her two-year tenure at the National Zoo, Bauer has successfully mentored 19 interns, sometimes being responsible for six students at a time. Bauer helps the students brainstorm ideas and develop their hypotheses, and she works closely with them as they analyze their data and write their papers and presentations. The interns selected for the program include students of various educational levels (high school, undergraduate, and graduate students), with interests ranging from understanding natural animal behaviors to animal enrichment and animal health. Of course, the interns also must have a deep interest in animals and a willingness to work in unusual places at unusual hours, often observing behaviors for long periods of time.
Many of the interns came to the Zoo with a study question already in mind. Others were given ideas from Bauer or the Zoo's curators and keepers. The interns have conducted research at the Zoo in Washington, D.C., as well as at the Zoo's Conservation and Research Center in Front Royal, Virginia. Some of the behavioral studies conducted over the past two years include:
The outcome of this research has been shared with National Zoo staff, often resulting in modifications to animal care procedures. Some of the studies have also been published or submitted for publication in peer-reviewed scientific journals and animal management newsletters.
Leaving a Legacy
Because her funding has ended, Bauer's two-year fellowship with the National Zoo will also end in April, along with the behavioral research internship program that she began. In an effort to keep the research going, she has worked closely with Friends of the National Zoo to ensure continued involvement of the Behavior Watch program, through which volunteers are trained to collect behavioral data. As to her future, Bauer is looking at various positions with other zoos across the country, and she noted that her priority is to keep working in a zoo setting.
"This has just been an amazing experience for me," says Bauer. "The timing was perfect and it changed my life. Don Moore [associate director of animal care at the National Zoo] has been extremely supportive of behavioral research and the staff here has been phenomenal. The keepers are truly the unassuming experts on the animals they care for.
"Not only did I have the opportunity to conduct research in my chosen field, but the training and mentoring experience with the interns has given me a renewed passion to develop opportunities for new scientists in the future. There are so many students interested in behavioral research, but so few positions available out there. We have to find a way to support these brilliant young minds."

About Behavioral Science
Behavioral scientists study the interactions between different animal or human groups, within groups, or between groups and their environment. There are many different specializations within the behavioral science field, including psychology, psychobiology, social research, anthropology, sociology, and social networks.
These scientists often work in the field and in real-life situations, versus in laboratories or isolated academic projects. The research done in zoo settings can be extremely helpful, especially involving species whose behaviors keepers don't fully understand.

In 1910 there were over sixty orphanages and homes for the aged operated by and for African Americans in the United States. Minnesota had one of them: St. Paul's Crispus Attucks Home. The home was named for the African American patriot killed in the Boston Massacre of 1770. It served the community for six decades, beginning in 1906 during the Jim Crow era and ending in 1966 at the peak of the civil rights movement.
For most of history, the human heart was off limits to medicine. The first closed heart surgery began in the 1940's. In the 1950's, a pair of physicians who worked in mobile surgical units of World War II discovered that open heart surgery could be an option.

Navajo Culinary Students' Fruit Salsa Wins Over Tasters at Gallup Chili Fest
Only a few simple ingredients made the fruit salsa at the 2nd Annual Gallup Chili Fest competition on September 28 such a hit: "watermelon, mango and pineapple with different chilies from across the world," explained Navajo Technical University instructor Chef Raina Marianito of Churchrock, New Mexico.
Two culinary arts students Randy White of Crownpoint, New Mexico, and Robert Bedonie from Naschitti, New Mexico, worked alongside their instructor Marianito, who was certified as a sous chef by the American Culinary Federation last year.
"We like to keep it traditional, but we wanted to make it a point to put our own flavors and our own self into it," Marianito said of their salsa.
The trio's fruit salsa won the prestigious people's choice award for the best salsa at the competition held at the Rio West Mall in Gallup, New Mexico.
A total of 11 food preparers competed in this year's Chili Fest, and were critiqued by thirteen judges evaluating two divisions – individual and restaurant. People who bought a $5 tasting ticket also got to vote for their favorite in each category, and it was these voters who selected Navajo Technical University's unique salsa.
Whereas last year Navajo Technical University won the overall people's choice award, this year the award was divided among all three categories, which NTU shared with green chili winner, the Chili Factory, and red chili winner, Rebecca Silva.
"It's a big learning process because the students get to be out here with the people and they get an immediate response back," said Marianito, who prepped the chilies and salsa with White and Bedonie a week leading up to the event. "You get the feeling that you made something from your heart and people love it. That makes you feel good inside."
While the gratification of serving a dish that is made from the heart is what motivated Marianito, second year competitor Randy White was proud of the school he represented – which was the only competitor that wasn't a restaurant and wasn't from Gallup or Grants.
"It was amazing because I got to do it with this on my chest," stated White, as he pointed to Navajo Technical University's embroidered logo on his chef coat. "It was just amazing."
Also participating in this year's Chili Fest cook-off included Grandpa's Grill, Sammy C's Rock N' Sports Pub & Grille, Fire Rock Casino, and Railway Café. Individuals competing included Lester Sandoval, Sophia Arviso, Victoria Garcia and Otis White.
Organizers of the event said they had close to 4,000 attendees this year, which also included a car and bike show, live music and dancers, chili trivia, and several children's activities. In winning the people's choice award, Navajo Technical College was awarded a trophy and a $150 check.

While Goldman Sachs is cautious on small-cap stocks due to valuation concerns, the firm still finds some pockets of opportunity among individual names within the group.
Goldman strategist David Kostin identified 25 small-cap stocks (companies with market capitalizations of less than $4 billion) that could offer at least a 25% upside to the Goldman price target over the next 12 months.
The list skews heavily toward consumer discretionary and tech stocks, including RetailMeNot, Lumber Liquidators and Office Depot

Tues March 18/2008
Well back up to 168lbs from 165lbs last week. I'm thinkin its mostly just becoming more hydrated again from recovering from sickness. I'm hoping my weight levels off here...well I mean in a level ascending pattern...1/2lb-1lb per week would be great.
60kg x 5
80kg x 3
100kg x 2
120kg x 1
130kg 3x3
Well I figured since I could do 125kg 3x5 that this would be easy. I guess I didn't remember that I hadn't really done deads for 2 weeks and I hurt my back a little bit the last time. I think my back is fine after this one but it was a hell of push....or should I say "pull." lol
BB Military Press
-bar x 5
-65lbs x 4
-85lbs x 3
-105lbs x 1
-120lbs x5,4,3
Well looks like I shoulda made some 1.25lb plates. Couldn't quite do it today. That was upsetting. Stuck right back where I was stuck before I started cutting.
bar x 5
30kg x 4
40kg x 3
50kg x 2
60lg x 1
70kg 2x5,1x4
Well I hit the wall today. I think I was having a bit of an energy crisis. Thinking of things that could replace this exercise...
Snatch/Overhead Squat
20kg 2x5
25kg 1x5
I'm really starting to like working on the oly style lifts. The explosiveness gets my really sweating.
Hanging Leg Raises
bw 1x10,1x9,1x8
A bit better each time.
Side Bends (DB)
50lbs x 5
85lbs 3x10
Grip was really taking a beating today. All the pulling work happened today.
9:30am - 1 cup of oats, 1.5 scoops whey protein powder
11:00am- Workout
12:45 - PWO - 2 scoops gainer (~40g protein and 60g carbs I think...about 500 cals)
1:30pm - chicken breast in a wrap with spinach/pickles/olives and some veggies on the side
3:30pm - Spinach, can of tuna, mustard, italian dressing, almonds
5:30pm - burger with pickles and ketchup + a bowl of fruit salad
Well today was pretty much a lame day as far as energy levels. I'm really learning to hate P.Rows and really starting to like the snatch. I think I also waited too long between my first meal and my workout. It was 3 hours since I'd eaten by the end of my workout so I think that explains part of the energy problem.

I really like the snatch and the overhead squat. I think they are alot of fun and challenging. You can use barely any weight with the snatch and still get a sweat on. Pretty awesome.

Squats (volume)
- bar x 5
- 135lbs x 5
- 155lbs x 3
- 175lbs x 3
- 195lbs 3x8
Well my back was still a little sore from the hard deads day on tuesday. It was kinda borderline wether I should do squats or not ...so I did them...of course. Well I think I'll be sore tomorrow but I don't think I pulled anything so thats good. Got these done so thats nice.
- bar x 6
-135lbs x 5
-165lbs x 3
-180bs 5x5
Gettin back up to where I wanna be here. Was a little harder push today but I guess it had to come some time. Still got a few more progressions in me I'm sure though.
bw+20lbs 2x5,1x4
Well I was really focusing on getting my chin over the bar today and the last rep just wouldn't happen. I'll keep this weight again.
bw + 10lbs 3x10
Well I figured it out what happened to my dips. I changed grip styles on bench and we started doing 5x5 at the same time. The added volume and the extra tri work from a narrow grip adds up to way more work then my tris are used to. So, I'm reseting the weight. Got my depth back again so that felt good.
Calf Raises
180lbs x 8
270lbs x 6
380lbs 3x10
Didn't seem too bad today?
Hamstring Curls
65lbs x 8
95lbs 3x10
Done and done.
9:30am - 1.5 scoops whey and 1 cup oats
10:30am - workout
12:30 - PWO - 2 scoops gainer
1:15pm - chicken wrap and some veggies
3:30pm - can of tuna, spinach, almonds
5:00pm - Quick shake with milk cause I'm headed for supper at 6 and my g-ma is cookin so I'm sure I'll get lots of carbs and fats there.
Well I'm a little dissapointed with my pull-ups and dips...they seem to be very sketchy these days. Well I guess I'll just keep workin on em. Oh ya, I think I decided to change one of the row days to a DB row variation just to change things up a little.

Like I've mentioned before, I don't put up my entire meal plan for they day. Only what I've eaten up to that point. I believe I had another 2 meals after the supper on that last day. I've been putting on weight so I really don't think eating is a problem.

Well on the way to pick up my gym partner this morning some lady pulled out in front of me and I couldn't stop. We were both OK but it still pissed me off. Her cause is F*ed and mine is slightly messed up. I've already had trouble with my insurance agency with them blaming a different accident on me in Dec (our cars didn't even touch!) but thats another story... Just pissed me off. Had to rant.
Fairly solid day at the gym otherwise.
Squats (heavy)
- bar x 5
- 135lbs x 5
- 165lbs x 3
- 185lbs x 2
- 205lbs x 1
- 225lbs 3x5 (old PR)
Well I'm back up to where I was before. Now to take it up and beyond!
- bar x 6
-135lbs x 4
-165lbs x 3
-175lbs x 1
-185bs 5x5
Was tougher this time but I still finished. I'm thinking this is comparable to where I was at with bench before. My best 3x5 was 200lbs so I'm think I'm in a similar range but hard to compare directly.
-bar x 5
-30kg x 4
-40kg x 3
-50kg x 2
-60kg x 1
-70kg 1x5,2x4
My last rep of the last two sets was not all the way to my chest. I think we're going to switch up the rep scheme on one of the days and go a little higher reps with lighter weight. Maybe switch one day to a dumbell variaton. Not exactly sure yet.
DB Military Press (standing)
-37.5lbs 4x8
Always tough after a hard bench day but I got it done.
Hanging Leg Raises
bw x10,9,8
Still can't master these yet. They're comin along though...slowly.
Side Bends
60lbs x 6
90lbs 3x10
This is always tough cause its 20 reps total each set (both sides) so I get huffin pretty good.
Diet was not great today...family came up and of course I've been slackin all weekend. Oh well.
Too much time between breaky and workout but thats what happens when you have to wait for the police to show up.
9:30am- eggs, pancakes, bacon, hash browns...yum
11:00 - crash into crazy driver lady...F*!
12:00 - Workout
1:30 - PWO - 2 scoops gainer
2:30 - PPWO - Burger and pineapple
Don't know what I'll have for the rest of the day yet but I am going to eat at least 3 more times.
Squats are back to my old PR so I'm real happy about that. Bench is in the same region but its hard to tell since I'm workin a different rep scheme. Bench is probably going to be switchin to a 3x3 within the next week or two and I'll continue on up until I'm around max with that then I'll max test. Then reset to 5x5 is the plan.
Going to start going with 5lb jumps on squats now and see how long I can take it. Probably switch to a 3x3 with that when I start failing on 3x5.

Thanks Jeffo. I'm pretty happy but I realized that I really have to work on my hammy flexibility. They are really tight and causing my back to round at the very bottom of my squat which in turn is hurting my dead lifts.

Reviews for this vacation apartment rental in Honolulu, Oahu, Hawaii
Aimee Miller
Las Vegas, NV
Excellent Location--Very Comfortable
October 5, 2013
My husband and I were in Honolulu for a friend's wedding and were able to secure this condo. It was in the perfect location in Waikiki. Close to the beach, restaurants and shopping. We had rented a car, which made included parking a must. Upon arrival and scouting out our location, we hardly used our vehicle, although it was nice to have somewhere safe to park. The location was quiet and well-kept. You could tell things were a little dated, but it was all very comfortable and the apartment included everything we needed. The contact person was prompt and friendly. We were happy with our choice and would definitely return in the future. I would highly recommend both the location and the company. Mahalo!
Great place for our last minute needs. Center of waikiki. Couldn't have asked for more. Sarah, host, is very helpful in her recommendations of where to park, where to go, etc. She also helped located an item I forgot back at the room and she kindly mailed it to me. I would definitely come back.
February 2013
If what are you looking for is location? this is the best place, one block away from Waikiki beach, you can't ask for a better place, the Studio is very nice, neat and clean, all you need for a great vacation, you will be in the center of Waikiki so it's busy, rent a car and drive around the island to the Haleiwa Town (north shore), best beaches and great food, if you are looking to surf with the Pros stop by Ehukai (Banzai Pipeline) and Sunset Beach, but I recommend to take the local bus (#22) for short trips like to Hanauma Bay for some of the best snorkeling in Hawaii, or Bus #23 to Diamond Head crater for some breathtaking views of Honolulu, I would definitely recommend Sara's Studio.
Clean and nice location. As described! Would definitely recommend this place.
A great stay in a wonderful location. Super-convenient access to everything, very comfortable studio, clean and cozy. Sarah was a great host, helpful and quick to respond to anything.
Great location, reasonable price. The host, Sarah, is helpful and kind. I would recommend this place to anyone.
We loved staying at the studio in the center of Waikiki! It was very cozy, nicely furnished and just a short walk from the beach. Sarah did a perfect job! She was very helpful and always quickly answered any questions we had. We hope to be back soon!

Is this at the start of the job, or after some data has been written?
I'd also strongly suggest the free upgrade to v7.01.1616. Go the downloads page
(from the BENT product page at
http://support.veritas.com/main_ddProduct_BEWNT.htm select the lower right text
box and click on the link) and grab the last free upgrade for v7.0 users.
BNT72I03 (english/intel) and
Download and expand to the same empty directory. When you go to upgrade DO NOT
just run "setup" as this will begin installing v7.2 which will not accept your
v7.0 serial(s) and will leave you with no backup system at all
Instead run "setup -fsetup701.ins" and you should be OK installing v7.01.1

Annual Savings Five-Year Savings from (Millions of dollars) Cumulative the 1997 Plan 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 Total Budget Authority 188 140 116 31 0 475 Outlays 91 138 126 76 28 459
NOTE: The 1997 plan includes no funds for follow-on ships.
The arsenal ship is a relatively new concept in ship design. It is being developed primarily to attack targets on land. Each of six planned ships would contain about 500 vertical launch system (VLS) cells. Those cells are tubes used to fire missiles and are currently deployed in smaller numbers on Navy cruisers, destroyers, and sub-marines. Because ordnance aboard the arsenal ship would be fired remotely by other ships, aircraft, or ground units using targeting data that they developed, the arsenal ship would not require expensive sensors and combat systems.
The Administration's 1997 plan continues accelerated development and fielding of the first ship (a demonstrator) by the Navy and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) under an advanced technology demonstration program. According to a Navy official familiar with the program, if development proceeds satisfactorily, a decision to procure a second ship will be made in 2000 or 2002.
This option would cancel research and development of the arsenal ship, saving $91 million in outlays in 1998 and almost $500 million during the 1998-2002 period. Those savings do not factor in the costs to procure follow-on production ships; the 1997 plan funds only the first vessel. Total savings from not completing the program are estimated to exceed $3 billion. (Those savings assume that the Navy buys a second ship in 2002 and four other ships from 2003 to 2006.) In addition, savings of about $2 billion would result from not buying expensive missiles to fill the 3,000 additional vertical launch cells. (Those savings assume that the Navy procures 3,000 additional Tomahawks, which are used to strike fixed targets on shore at long ranges.)
Proponents of the arsenal ship believe it would be an inexpensive way to give the fleet additional firepower that could be deployed quickly during a crisis or war. Existing technology would be used for the ship; omitting costly sensors and combat systems would allow personnel costs to be kept low by limiting the size of the crew to no more than 50. The ships would be kept overseas in key areas so that they could respond more quickly to crises. Their high-capacity magazines might be used to hit targets early in a war when enemy air defenses would make it too risky to use manned aircraft. Also, the longer-range missiles fired from the ships might be used to support Marines carrying out their new doctrine of maneuvering deep into enemy territory.
Nonetheless, the arsenal ship may not be needed. Opponents of the program maintain that the fleet does not need more VLS cells, especially ones so vulnerable to enemy attack. Even without arsenal ships, by the end of the decade the fleet will have over 7,000 VLS cells on its cruisers, destroyers, and submarines. Unlike the arsenal ship, those ships can perform multiple missions. Critics argue that the VLS cells on the other ships (the maximum number of cells per ship is about 120) are not as vulnerable as those on the arsenal ship. The arsenal ship, they claim, puts too many weapons on a single platform, making it a lucrative and potentially explosive target for enemy aircraft, submarines, and patrol boats. In addition, because the Navy has traditionally assigned a higher priority to buying ships and aircraft than it has missiles, it has a shortage of Tomahawk missiles even for the existing VLS cells. Furthermore, according to one critic, building a ship whose sensors and combat systems are remotely located makes the questionable assumption that data links between ships cannot be interrupted or jammed. Those data links could be the weakest part of the concept of the arsenal ship.
Opponents also maintain that the Navy is building the wrong kind of ship. Although the Department of the Navy's post-Cold War doctrine "Forward from the Sea" emphasizes the role of the Marine Corps, the arsenal ship may not be ideal for supporting those forces before they go ashore (by bombarding the shore before an amphibious assault) and while they are there. Critics argue that with about 500 VLS cells, the ship would be primarily a strike weapon poised to hit distant, high-value targets in the enemy's rear area with very accurate and expensive missiles. Therefore, the arsenal ship would compete with the plethora of other assets, such as the B-2 bomber, capable of performing the strike mission.
Thus, opponents assert that scarce resources should not be used to buy more VLS cells. Instead, to suppress enemy forces before and during an amphibious assault, the Marines need the support of ships that can provide responsive, sustained, high-volume fire from guns shooting relatively inexpensive shells. According to that argument, such fire support during the Persian Gulf War was provided by the now-retired battleships with 16-inch guns, despite the availability of missiles in VLS cells on ships afloat. Furthermore, unlike guns, missiles cannot be reloaded into VLS cells while the ship is at sea. (The space and weight limitations of the arsenal ship would permit a gun system to be added in the future, but the demonstrator ship will not have one.)
Although the Navy intends to build the arsenal
ship inexpensively, it is exploring ways to reduce the
ship's vulnerability to attack in littoral areas through
stealth techniques that inhibit detection. According
to one critic, however, spending a lot on stealth
technology may be unwarranted because the vessel
would probably be protected by the sophisticated
defenses of an accompanying battle group.

The NGC Universal ID is a four digit alphanumeric that groups coins based on a unique combination of date, mintmark, denomination and striking process (MS, PF, or SP). These IDs are a simple organization of all coins prior to variety attribution and grading.
While the 1907-D cannot be considered an absolute rarity among late-date twenty Libs, it is an issue that has a transcendent appeal to a wide range of collectors. The Denver mint opened the previous year, this being the second year of issue as well as the final year for the long-lived Longacre design (first struck for commercial usage in 1850). In addition to being of importance to collectors of Denver coinage and to type collectors, the 1907-D is also one of the better produced and most attractive coins of the Type Three design.

Following the ban on mining activities in Karnataka in July 2011, JSW Steel's stock has declined almost 20% compared to a 6% fall in the Nifty. Though the company continues to face hurdles in procuring iron ore in the near term, the downside looks relatively limited as the stock is currently trading very close to its 52-week low.
It currently trades below its book value and at a discount to its peers. But with capacity expansion now on stream, the company is well placed to take advantage of the growing demand for steel in the longer term.

The Brook Mine would be located on 14,500 acres of private and state land. The coal to be mined would not be federally owned, saving the cost of federal bonus payments made by many of the state's other coal companies.
Wyoming coal production is down from 443 million tons a year in 2010 to 388 million tons last year.
Still, Lexington, Kentucky-based Ramaco hopes to buck the trend with its small mine that would extract only 8 million tons of coal a year. Other Wyoming coal mines extract 100 million tons a year.
Ramaco CEO Randall Atkins tells the Casper Star-Tribune his company is looking into exporting its coal overseas.

Up until last summer, the MOTHER EARTH NEWS Ecovillage wasn't equipped with a facility suitable for food preparation. In seasons past, we hired outside caterers to provide our visitors with quality meals and snacks. Some of these services worked out well. Others did not. Seeking a more reliable and permanent solution (one in keeping with the MOTHER EARTH NEWS philosophy) to our culinary quandary we decided that if you want to do something right, you just have to do it yourself. The outcome: Last year the MOTHER EARTH NEWS restaurant opened at the Ecovillage ... to rave reviews, we're pleased to say from visitors and staff alike.
We cooks at the eatery not only provided folks with delicious vegetarian (and semi veterinarian) dishes but also taught show-how's on natural food related topics. We frequently became pupils, too, benefiting from the vast pool of experiences and suggestions so generously shared by our guests. The exchange of recipes and ideas between staff and visitors—not to mention the resulting tasty dishes—enriched us all.
For instance, two of the young visitors who left us with some very fond memories were Ben Stuki and Casey Fenyo. Ben, who hails from Mauk, Georgia, was a bright and competent kitchen helper. Casey was quite good at prepping vegetables (it's amazing how hard someone will work in exchange for a few carob brownies), but could disappear without a trace at the mention of dishwashing.
For those readers who didn't get a chance to visit us this past year (or for those of you who did stop by but forgot to write down the formulas for your favorite dishes), here are a few of our favorite recipes. Of course, we hope you'll come see us in person this season at the Ecovillage Restaurant and sample our delicacies firsthand. In the meantime, perhaps this popularly acclaimed menu will tide you over. Here's to good eating!
1 cup of fruit juice (apple, orange, papaya, or whatever you prefer)6 ice cubes1 banana (or a peach, a nectarine, or a handful of strawberries)1 teaspoon of honey1 teaspoon of vanilla
Blend the juice and ice in a blender until the cubes are liquefied. After adding the fruit, vanilla, and honey, continue processing until the mixture is smooth. This should yield approximately 2 cups of sweet, delicious fruit shake. (This recipe is from Eco-Chef Linda Doyle, who also contributed the favorite bread in The Benefits of Whole Grain Food.)
1 cup of mayonnaise1/2 cup of chopped parsley1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese2 tablespoons of lemon juice1 garlic clove, crushed1 teaspoon of basil
Combine all the ingredients (using milk or buttermilk as a thinner, if needed) ahead of time and refrigerate so the flavors have a chance to blend. Then pour the dressing over your favorite salad at mealtime.
1 onion1 tablespoon of oil3 cups of water or vegetable stock1/2 cup of barley3 carrots, sliced1 bunch of broccoli, cut in pieces3 medium potatoes, diced2 medium tomatoes, diced1 teaspoon of basil1 teaspoon of oregano1/4 teaspoon of coriander1/4 teaspoon of dill1 teaspoon of Spike seasoning sea salt to tastepinch of parsley, choppedpinch of mint, chopped
First, sauté the onion in oil, add the water (or stock) and barley, and bring the mixture to a boil. Then reduce the heat and simmer until the barley is almost done (approximately 20 minutes). Add the vegetables and spices and continue to simmer until the vegetables are tender. (NOTE: You can use almost any vegetables you want in this soup. Here at the Ecovillage restaurant we just add whatever goodies our gardens are yielding at the time.) Add the fresh parsley and mint just before serving. This pot should give you about 8 to 10 steaming bowlfuls.
3/4 cup of chick-peas (garbanzo beans), cooked2 garlic cloves, crushed1 teaspoon of basil6 to 8 tablespoons of lemon juice1/2 teaspoon of oregano1 teaspoon of sea salt1/2 cup of tahini1/2 to 1 cup of water or bean liquid
Combine everything but the water (or bean liquid) in a blender and process until smooth. Then gradually add the liquid until the mixture reaches the desired consistency for dipping or spreading. (NOTE: Here at the Ecovillage we serve this special spread on bread with a slice of Swiss cheese, a slice of tomato, and a topping of our "super sprouts:" a combination of clover, alfalfa, and fenugreek.)
2/3 cup of butter1 1/4 cups of honey1/3 cup of carob powder2 eggs1 teaspoon of vanilla2 1/2 cups of flour1 1/2 teaspoons of baking soda1/2 teaspoon of salt1 cup of milk
Cream the butter first and then gradually blend in the honey. Next, add the carob powder and mix well. Beat in the eggs and vanilla and finally add the dry ingredients—a little at a time, mixing in some milk with each addition—and beat till smooth. Now, pour the batter into greased 8-inch round cake pans and bake at 325 degrees for about 50 minutes (or until a toothpick poked into the middles comes out clean). When done, turn the steaming layers onto a rack to cool. And while you wait, prepare the following frosting to top off your cake:
1 8-ounce package of cream cheese, softened3 tablespoons of honey2 tablespoons of juice (orange, we're told, is tastiest) or milk1 teaspoon of mint extract
Mix all the ingredients together and beat till smooth and fluffy (NOTE: If you're a carob-lover, try adding a tablespoon of carob powder to the above ingredients.) When your cake has cooled, ice it with this tasty topping and sit back to enjoy all the compliments you'll undoubtedly get from your satisfied family and friends!

The Body
Symbol Analysis
"Power" is about the decay, and eventual death, of Marie Curie's body. But Rich also describes the earth in bodily imagery and draws a connection between the Curie's body and the earth itself. In this way, Rich connects up different branches of science (much as Curie herself did) and asks us to make connections between the human and the earth.
- Line 2: The speaker personifies the earth, and describes its "flank," as if it had flesh.
- Lines 3-4: The amber bottle is filled with liquid that will supposedly cure all kinds of bodily ailments, from fever to melancholy. Yeah right, liquid. We don't believe in magic (and you can bet Curie didn't believe in it either).
- Lines 7-9: Here we find out that Curie was "bombarded" (a pretty intense and violent word) by radiation. The speaker thinks that Curie must have understood what was happening to her body, even as she denied it. Could Marie really be that blind to what was going on?
- Lines 10-13: Now we get the deets on the radiation poisoning, and it ain't pretty. Curie's fingertips are filled with pus, her skin is cracking, her eyes have developed cataracts. Her work has taken a palpable toll on her body.
- Lines 14-17: Ah, the irony: Curie's scientific life work, which gave her power, ultimately destroyed her body and left her dead. She denied that her "wounds came from the same source as her power" until the very end—perhaps refusing to see, or at least to admit, the toll that some work takes on the human body.

Spurs look for sweep
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) -- The San Antonio Spurs will be trying to get somewhere they haven't been in six years. The NBA Finals.
The Spurs are on the verge of ending that drought and it could happen tonight when they take on the Grizzlies in Memphis. San Antonio will be looking to complete a sweep of the Western Conference finals.
And winning Game 4 would give the aging Spurs some time to regroup before heading into the Finals.
They know time is running out for their current Big Three, featuring the 37-year-old Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili (MAN'-oo jih-NOH'-blee) along with coach Gregg Popovich. The franchise is in its 16th straight postseason and has four NBA titles but hasn't played in the Finals since 2007 at a time when Ginobili recalls the Spurs were being called old even then.
If the Grizzlies hope to extend the series to a Game 5 they likely have to shoot better, both overall and at the free throw line. They shot only 39.2 percent (38 of 97) in Saturday night's loss and would not have needed overtime if they hadn't gone 10 of 18 at the free throw line.
Hornacek to become Suns' next coach
PHOENIX (AP) -- It looks like Phoenix has zeroed in on a new head coach. Former Sun Jeff Hornacek (HOHR'-nah-sehk) is about to rejoin the team.
A person with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press on Sunday that contract talks are ongoing.
The comments came after azcentralsports, which includes the Arizona Republic, reported Sunday that Hornacek reached agreement on a three-year contract.
The announcement could come as soon as Tuesday.
Hornacek played for the Suns and has recently served as Utah's assistant coach. He replaces interim coach Lindsey Hunter, who took over the team when Alvin Gentry and the club agreed to part ways in mid-January.
International hoops hall picks inductees
UNDATED (AP) -- David Robinson, Pat Summitt and Teresa Edwards headline the 2013 FIBA (FEE'-bah) Hall of Fame class of 12.
Robinson won two gold medals and a bronze in the Olympics. He played for the U.S. on the 1988, 1992 and 1996 teams, becoming the first American to appear in three Olympics. He's the all-time leading rebounder and shot blocker for the U.S. in the Olympics and No. 2 scorer.
Summitt, the all-time leader in victories in college basketball, won a silver medal as a player on the 1976 Olympic team and guided the U.S. to gold in 1984. She is one of only two American women to win a medal as both a player and head coach, joining Anne Donovan.
Edwards helped the U.S. win four gold medals and a bronze in her five Olympics from 1984-2000, making her the most decorated Olympic basketball player ever.
Angels are on fire
UNDATED (AP) -- The Angels take a major-league-best eight-game winning streak into today's Memorial Day showdown with the Dodgers in a bragging-rights game for Los Angeles. The Angels are looking to make it nine in a row for the first time since August 2004. The surge has moved the Angels up the AL West standings, but they are still four games under .500 and a healthy nine games back of first-place Texas.
C.J. Wilson is set to get the start after striking out 10 in eight innings for the Angels his last time out.
The Rangers are playing two against NL West-leading Arizona today and tonight. Major league strikeout leader Yu Darvish gets the call in the nightcap for the Rangers coming off a disappointing loss his last time out. He took the loss in a 1-0 decision against Oakland to see his record fall to 7-2.
The Diamondbacks are tied for the division lead with the Giants, who battle it out for supremacy of the Bay at Oakland.
The lead in the AL East could change before the day is out if the Yankees lose to the Mets and Boston tops Philadelphia. The Red Sox start the day percentage points back of the Yankees.
A pair of pitchers will be zeroing in on their seventh win of the season. Jason Hammel takes a 6-2 mark to the mound for Baltimore against Washington. And 6-3 Adam Wainwight is scheduled for St. Louis which visits Kansas City.
Nadal prevails
PARIS (AP) -- Rafael Nadal survived an early scare and successfully began his bid for an eighth French Open title by rallying past Daniel Brands of Germany, 4-6, 7-6, 6-4, 6-3.
Nadal, who had lost only 14 sets in 53 previous matches at Roland Garros, fell behind when he was broken in the ninth game and was on the verge of digging a deeper hole. He trailed 3-0 in the tiebreaker, then summoned his best shot-making to salvage the set and soon was in control.
The Spaniard, who won a record seventh French Open title last year, improved to 53-1 at Roland Garros.
Former champion Li Na started fast to beat a nemesis. The 2011 titlist raced to a 4-love lead after 20 minutes and defeated Anabel Medina Garrigues 6-3, 6-4 in the first round Monday.
Seeded No. 6, Li came into the match 0-3 on clay against Medina Garrigues but broke serve six times and came forward aggressively, winning 13 of 16 points at the net.
No. 4 Agnieszka Radwanska (ahg-nee-ESH'-kuh rahd-VAHN'-skuh) defeated Shahar Peer 6-1, 6-1 in 57 minutes. Radwanska, last year's Wimbledon runner-up, played for the first time since withdrawing before last week's Brussels tournament with a recurrence of the right shoulder injury that has bothered her the past couple of years.
Former top-ranked player Caroline Wozniacki ended a five-match losing streak by defeating Laura Robson of Britain 6-3, 6-2 in
Wings try to close out 'Hawks
DETROIT (AP) -- It's try-again time for the Red Wings tonight as they attempt to move into the Western Conference finals.
Detroit takes another stab as closing out the Chicago Blackhawks in Game 6 of their semifinal series.
After running up the best record in the lockout-shortened season, the Blackhawks showed they weren't going down easily by coming through in a must-win situation on home ice Saturday. That's where they'll return for a deciding Game 7 on Wednesday night, if they can pull out a road win tonight.

Top Definition
The act of trying repeatedly to connect to an unavailable FTP server with little or no time between connection attempts. It can be compared to repeatedly hitting the "redial" button on a telephone when dialing a phone number that is busy until the other phone is no longer busy
Most FTP sites have policies against hammering and require FTP clients to set retry times at specific intervals, commonly at least 120 seconds between each attempt to connect. Most FTP sites can also monitor for devices that hammer, and once detected the server will ban access to the offending IP address either permanently or for a limited amount of time.

Run-off election results: Arrington Takes The Fifth; It's Perdue vs. Nunn
By Hal Lamar | 7/25/2014, 9:27 a.m.
Atlanta attorney Marvin Arrington Jr. is now the new commissioner from Fulton County's new 5th District Commission seat.
He defeated challenger and former Atlanta School board member Brenda Muhammad in the July 22 general primary runoff. The namesake son of former longtime City Council President and now retired judge Marvin Arrington Sr. gathered 4186 votes to Muhammad's 2970. In the general primary election two months ago, Arrington finished the night the leading vote- getter with 45.11 percent of the balloting to Muhammad's 31.38 percent, which forced the runoff.
The race between the two 5th district contenders was fairly close just a couple of hours before the polls closed Tuesday night at 7 p.m. In fact, by 9 p.m. that night and with 42 of the district's 60 precincts reporting, Arrington's led out the starting gate narrowed considerably, with an early 59 percent lead sliced which was sliced to 57 percent. But less than two hours later, Arrington's lead swelled and stayed at 60.1 percent.
Two commission candidates who won their primaries, veteran Emma Darnell and Commission Chair John Eaves, will face Republican opposition in November. If the two survive those challenges, the Commission will remain with a 4-3 minority majority.
Meanwhile, an appeal by former commission member and candidate Rob Pitts who was defeated in the general primary by Eaves was dismissed by a Fulton County judge, leaving Eaves the winner of the race for District 7.
In other races….
In a hard-fought nine-week run-off campaign, business executive David Perdue defeated south Georgia Congressman Jack Kingston for the Republican nomination for the U.S. Senate.
November 4's election will pit two "outsiders" against one another to fulfill the seat of retiring U.S. Sen. Saxby Chambliss. Perdue will face Democrat Michelle Nunn. Neither candidate has held public office before.
In a campaign that saw a flood of outside PAC money, Perdue carried nearly all of north Georgia and did better than anticipated in many southern counties.
Shelitha Robertson lost her bid for a seat on the Fulton County Superior court bench to Jane Barwick who collected 30 percent of the ballots to Robertson's 17 percent.
The people resounding said "NO' to former DeKalb Commission CEO Vernon Jones to becoming their new sheriff. Sheriff Jeffery Mann who took over the office after Thomas Brown gave up the seat to run for the U.S. Congressional 4th seat, easily defeated Jones.
Georgia is just one race away from electing its first African American female state school superintendent. Valarie Wilson outpointed runoff challenger and former state legislator Alisha Thomas-Morgan 55 to 44 percent Wilson will face Republican opposition in November.

Goats Ahoy!
Welcome to The Salty Goat!
This page is dedicated to all those who wanted to learn about food but have never been sure where to start. Basic skills are the foundation to cooking and enjoying delicious food. Once you have mastered the art of basic cooking, everything is possible!
So lets get down to basics.
Number 1: Pantry Essentials.
Once you have stocked your pantry with the essentials, you'll never have to venture too far to create a good meal. It really does make life easier, and its inexpensive!
Top 10 Must have ingredients (So we think anyway)
Where possible with these ingredients, buy as locally and as fresh as you can.
- Salt (We are called the Salty Goat for a reason!), and pepper of course!
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Flour ( Plain and Self-Raising)
- Sugar (White and Brown)
- Balsamic, Red Wine and White Vinegar
- Dried Herbs and Spices: Choose the ones that you know you will use the most.
- Pasta and Rice
- Tinned Tomatoes/Passata/Tomato Paste
- Chicken, Beef and Vegetable Stocks
- Vanilla Essence/ Cocoa Powder
- Eggs
- Milk
- Butter
- Parmesan/Tasty Cheese
- Bacon/Pancetta
- Garlic and Onions (Not really a cold product but we keep them in the fridge as we live in humid city…a.k.a The Gold Coast)
Number 2: Learning How to Substitute Ingredients.
Its not the end of the world if you can't buy a specific oil/cheese/vinegar… because the truth is, a lot of ingredients in recipe books these days can be very hard to source. So its important to learn how to substitute these products for something more readily available and often more affordable.
In the case where a specific oil is called for. (Example: Avocado Oil, Pistachio Oil or even Lemon Infused Olive Oil). These products can often be substituted for a good quality Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO), which is something you should have in your pantry essentials and would often get more use out of. Its also important to be aware of the flavour differences of these products. It will change the flavour, but its not the end of the world! It will still be delicious! Be realisitic about your purchases, if you think you will use it, buy it! If not, find a substitute.
Number 3: Knowing Whats in Season.
Its important to know which fresh ingredients are in season and of course, buying as locally and as fresh as possible. It is also important to know how to substitute fresh ingredients for when they are unavailable. You will save so much money too. When fruit and veg are in season, it is plentiful, competitively priced, and delicious.
So, do your research for wherever you are in the world! Ask your local green grocer, or research online. Once you know, it will be helpful with all of your food endevours. Support local!
Number 4: Have Fun With It!
We all have to eat! Make the most of it, enjoy it. Taste as you go, don't underestimate the power of salt, be adventurous, don't be scared. We need to eat everyday, so it may as well be delicious!

Florida Hospital Tampa (formerly University Community Hospital Medical Center), Crothall Healthcare, Naval Medical Center (Bob Wilson Naval Hospital)
Three people were arrested for their roles in filing 225 fraudulent tax returns. They face charges of conspiracy, theft of government property, and aggravated identity theft. About $555,000 in refund money was obtained. One of the defendants worked at Florida Hospital Tampa through a maintenance and housekeeping company. Information came from a variety of medical centers in California and Florida. There was an incident where the dishonest worker provided her co-conspirators with a list of names and Social Security numbers from patients seen at Florida Hospital Tampa on January 17 of 2012 and another incident where ER patient names, Social Security numbers, and other information was stolen from Crothall Healthcare in January.

With our earlier piece today about the leaked iPhone 5 images, comes another wave of rumors surrounding Apple's lates iOS installment, iOS6.
iOS6 is something we here at Geekfori are super excited about and even joined Apple's developer account to grab the beta versions early.
BGR has broke the story on one of the cool new apps that Apple is supposedly coming out with, 3D maps. The Google Maps app, one of the least used on my phone, has been rumored to be replaced by an in house Apple app.
Seems like Google isn't doing so well lately and should stick to the ad game!
Today, BGR released photos of what it claims to be Apple's new Maps app that is rumored to be released with iOS6 later this year.
The image above is a mock-up of what BGR believes Apple's new Maps app will look like. To see the actual pictures of the supposed app, visit BGR's website.
According to BGR's "trusted source," the color scheme of the navigation bar is silver and the photos won't be so grainy! But what this does tell us is that a possible change in color around all of iOS6, to silver, may be coming.
BGR describes the 3D map access as having to "peel back the lower right corner of the maps, just like the current version." Users will also be able to switch in and out of 3D mode by taping a 3D icon in the lower left corner.
While nothing to exciting to start the rumor mill on iOS6, my main excitement comes with the possible change from black to silver in the GUI.
Are you looking forward to iOS6 and the possible changes it may bring? Do you even use the maps app?

links for 2009-10-1: iPhone apps stealing your phone number; eBay drops GM; LA City Hall e-mail; Snow Leopard after 30 days
By kevinschmidt on Sep 30, 2009
- Prepare to freak out! iPhone developers are using apps to pass your phone number to telemarketers - See this too. It appears it is easy enough to do through the API or sending an SMS that this would have been exposed earlier. Did Apple's review process just miss this one? Even if there is a purpose for such and API, you'd expect a pop-up like there is for sharing your location with an app so the user could approve the use.
- GM, eBay pull plug on online car sales experiment - I hadn't taken a look, but if I was car shopping I would have.
- Microsoft vs. Google: An e-mail showdown at L.A. City Hall - The future for commodity apps like e-mail is the cloud, but is it ready for the City of Los Angeles?
- Life With Snow Leopard: One Month Later - Nice but not compelling according to this review
