Using PostgreSQL
When I first began to use Linux for basic Web development, I saw that my three primary tools—Perl, GNU Emacs and Apache—were already included. But, at least one thing was missing, namely a relational database. I had used databases (mostly Sybase) for about a year when I began working with Linux, and knew that I would need a good database server in order to create sophisticated web sites.
I had heard of PostgreSQL and, after learning a bit more about it, decided to install it. Unfortunately, my installation experience was less than pleasant, and I gave up after several hours. Another reason I gave up was that I found another database server, MySQL. MySQL did not have all of the features I wanted in a database, but it was close enough; I implemented many web applications for clients using it.
Things have changed quite a bit in the last five years: MySQL has been rereleased under the GNU General Public License and is slated to include basic support for transactions, while PostgreSQL is now remarkably easy to install and includes a wealth of features and functionality. Both are well known in the Free Software community as powerful programs that can help get your work done.
I still use MySQL for a variety of tasks and expect to continue doing so, but, increasingly, I find that PostgreSQL is a better fit for my needs. This month, we will look at PostgreSQL, starting with its basic features, to create a small web-based application that uses transactions. Along the way, I will try to compare it with MySQL, describing where one product might be better suited than the other.
As of this writing, the latest version of PostgreSQL is 7.0.2, released in the spring of 2000. As with all open-source software, you can download the PostgreSQL source code from the Internet and compile it yourself. My office uses the Red Hat distribution, and I generally prefer to install software with RPMs for easier maintenance. We downloaded the RPMs from the PostgreSQL web site, installed them, and were up and running in almost no time.
Like all modern database systems, PostgreSQL contains a server that can handle connections from multiple clients. Typically, only one computer in a network is designated to be the database server, with the remaining computers configured as clients. (The server is often configured to be a client as well, in order to facilitate debugging and system configuration.) RPMs for the server typically begin with the name "postgresql-server", while the client RPMs are named "postgresql" followed by the version number.
PostgreSQL clients exist—in source form and as RPMs—for most of the programming languages that people use in designing web applications, including Perl, Python, Java and PHP. If you intend to build any of these from scratch, you will need to install the PostgreSQL development libraries, either from source code or from the RPMs. I compiled Perl and its modules from the source code but, otherwise, took advantage of the RPMs and installed the precompiled binaries.
Like MySQL and many other relational databases, tables within PostgreSQL are grouped into a single "database", much as files are grouped within a directory. PostgreSQL offers a great deal of flexibility when it comes to security configurations. Databases can allow or deny access based on IP address or user name, while individual tables and other objects allow various levels of access based on the user name. These configurations are performed in the pg_hba.conf file, which was installed by default in /var/lib/pgsql/data on my system.
By default, only one user, called "postgres", is authorized to create new users or to create new databases. When you first start to use PostgreSQL, you will probably have to use su to change your identity to root, then su again to change your identity to "postgres". Once you have become the postgres user, you can use the createuser program to create one or more new users. You can then indicate whether they are allowed to create new databases and/or new users.
The psql database client which comes with PostgreSQL is an excellent interactive tool for working with the database. Like the MySQL client program, it uses GNU ReadLine to provide Emacs-compatible keybindings for entering SQL queries directly. psql also provides an extensive number of help commands that begin with backslashes, such as \h (which displays help for any SQL command), \d (which lists available objects and details about those objects), and \l (which lists available databases). I use psql constantly to double-check that program-generated queries worked correctly; it is easy and quick to use.
PostgreSQL implements a large portion of standard SQL and, therefore, is easy to learn if you have previously worked with a relational database. We can create a simple table, as shown in Listing 1.
The serial data type is similar to MySQL's AUTO_INCREMENT tag. It provides us with a unique number each time we insert a new row into the table. serial columns use a PostgreSQL data type called a "sequence" on which the PostgreSQL nextval and currval functions operate. It is also possible to use a sequence directly (see Listing 2).
PostgreSQL distinguishes between single and double quotes, so be sure to say nextval(`people_id') and not nextval("people_id").
Inside of psql, the semicolon is a synonym for \g, meaning "go and execute this query". Outside of psql, it has no meaning and may even cause an error in your database driver.
PostgreSQL, unlike MySQL, is case insensitive when it comes to table and column names. However, I prefer to follow Joe Celko's capitalization rules for SQL: keywords in ALL CAPS, table names in LeadingCaps, and column names in all_lowercase_with_underscores.
As in MySQL, PostgreSQL allows us to designate which column is the primary key. PostgreSQL also allows for unique columns (and combinations of columns), as well as the creation of indices with the create index statement.
PostgreSQL's data types are slightly different from those in MySQL, but relatively easy to understand if you have worked with another database. varchar and numeric types are supported. Perhaps the most confusing difference between data types in MySQL and PostgreSQL is timestamp. Under MySQL, a timestamp column is automatically set to the value of the latest insert or update. In PostgreSQL, a timestamp column simply contains a date/time value.
PostgreSQL supports many standard SQL functions and many of the extensions that MySQL contains. The difference, of course, is in how they are implemented. For example, MySQL has a regexp function similar like function. PostgreSQL, by contrast, has implemented regexp functionality with the ~ (tilde) operator, perhaps because of Perl's popularity.
PostgreSQL also makes it possible to create new datatypes with the create type function. Indeed, one of PostgreSQL's claims to fame is that it is a hybrid of object-oriented and relational databases. I have never needed to use this functional, but it does seem to be an intriguing and powerful feature.

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

I bought a geodesic dome on ebay made of metal tubing. It is quite large and I was planing on covering it with plastic to make it into a green house. Problem is is when I did so the wind was able to get up under it and blow the damn thing over, ripping the plastic and twisting the tubing.ERRRRGH! So, I straighted it out, righted the structure and staked the mother down securely to the ground. Problem is is that it ripped up the plastic and now I have had to remove it all, a total waste of time and money. Now I have something resembling a giant jungle gym rather than a green house behind my house.
Does anyone have any suggestions on covering this monster?

Re: Geodesic greenhouseSat, January 10, 2009 - 4:19 PMUnless you can afford to frame and glass in the structure plastic is your best bet.. just how windy is it there?
I would use a poly weave plastic it's stronger than normal plastic and can be bought in a piece big enough to cover the whole dome or seamed do you have a door? or were you planning on picking up the edge? or step through a section? your going to need a ventilation system when it gets warmer or you will cook your tender plants.
Re: Geodesic greenhouseThu, January 15, 2009 - 5:36 AMyes, I was planning on being able to roll up the sides about three feet or so.
Re: Geodesic greenhouseThu, January 15, 2009 - 9:54 AMyes I saw your photograph you do have a door, because its round you would have a hard time rolling it up so instead have your husband build a frame box to fit near the door and mount a box fan.. or if electric is not available then make the frame a window that can be opened and closed with an opposing one on the other side. If it gets too hot you open the windows and draft it.
What are you using for tables? you should take into consideration what the drafting windows will do to the tender plants near it. so plan to not place anything near them until later when they are big enough to take a blast of cold. If you can do the box fan it wouldn't matter you will only be blowing out not taking in.
Re: Geodesic greenhouseThu, January 15, 2009 - 10:38 AMI also remembered a really good reason to put the vent doors in.. because the condensation that builds up in a greenhouse turns into drips.. drips are bad , you would think its ok its just rain but the fact is that drip can hold millions of pathogens that will kill your small plants. It causes mold which suffocates roots. etc.
I did some searching for fasteners for the plastic.. I went to school for ornamental horticulture and worked in several large green houses. We used a number of different ways to hold the plastic on the best one was a tongue and groove metal fasteners that would go over the pipe holding the plastic between. We also used the wiggle wire.. I didnt care for that one as much I pinched my fingers too much trying to install it.. but it worked well. This supply house seemed to have the best information for the do it yourselfer.
ps they have the plastic repair tape you may be able to salvage the plastic you had..
Re: Geodesic greenhouseThu, January 15, 2009 - 1:04 PMWow this bring everyone out of the woodwork (no joke) it making me" Think Spring "and starting tomato plants.
Re: Geodesic greenhouseFri, January 16, 2009 - 5:38 AMI have had arguments for and against using marine shrink wrap. What are your thoughts on it? the plastic I had has turned brittle and useless. It has been a very frustrating waste of time and money so far.
Re: Geodesic greenhouseFri, January 16, 2009 - 5:40 AMnever mind , I just scrolled down and saw your post .
Re: Geodesic greenhouseFri, January 16, 2009 - 11:03 AMusually the grade of plastic used in greenhouses will deteriorate within 3 to 4 years.. the sun is brutal.. which is why shrink wrap wont work for very long by shrinking it you already denatured the plastic. If you can afford to replace it yearly It might be more pleasing to the eye.. :)
Re: Geodesic greenhouseSun, January 11, 2009 - 4:08 AMMy suggestion is to get weather proofing plastic. Do it in long strips and use zip ties to secure it in place. then blow dry it to make a tighter fit over the dome.
The problem seems to be that there is too much play in the plastic unless you just have really forceful winds. The more the plastic flaps in the wind, the more likely you are to have pockets of air get trapped and cause the whole thing to get ripped off. If you do it in strips and one gets ripped off, you can replace it much easier.
If you cant do the glass framing thing, consider possibly plexiglass that is very cheap and can be cut to size. If you use liquid nail or gorilla glue you can secure it prettty tightly!
Re: Geodesic greenhouseSun, January 11, 2009 - 9:13 AMHouse, has it. That heat shrink poly sheeting they use to winter boats - - if you can get it translucent or clear would be the ticket.
I'd throw a berm of earth up around the edges to keep is from being blown over and draft free.
Re: Geodesic greenhouseWed, January 14, 2009 - 5:37 PMyou should not use heat shrink plastic.. because it wont winter and you would need to replace it yearly.
Re: Geodesic greenhouseThu, January 15, 2009 - 7:03 AMAny polymer that is flexible will "unzip" when exposed to the elements. The only plastic that I know of that can sit out in the sun is MethylMethaculate (acrylic / plexiglass / lucite). The UV from the sun unzips most polymers causing that familiar hazing that you'll see.
The octal-Thylates in flexible polymers along with other plasticizers will sublime away too leaving it brittle.
Any poly sheeting will have to be replaced rather often
Re: Geodesic greenhouseFri, January 16, 2009 - 2:02 AMWhat are they using over at the Eden Project?
Perhaps the Eden Project website takes about this...they've got some gigantic domes (possibly inspired by the 1936 movie "Things to Come"?!)

Re: Geodesic greenhouseSun, January 11, 2009 - 11:02 AMI had the same problem here and I needed to make an extension in the roof that could lift up to let the wind out. The flap was still attached but sewn into place with nylon net sort of like a release valve. I think you're on the right track here by staking it down and all, but you really do need to vent a green house or you'll cook everything. if you can lift this roof flap at will , it will go along way toward venting( even using a long pole can work. If you're in Full sun you may also need to provide some shade during hot days. I've seen people use old bamboo shades for this.
Re: Geodesic greenhouseSun, January 11, 2009 - 2:01 PMThat's a common problem at Burning Man. One solution is to reinforce the tubing with internal wire cables or strong nylon rope. To keep the whole structure from flying away, two foot long steel rebar stakes are pounded into the ground and the structure secured to them at every corner. Hope it works out as a geodesic greenhouse sounds really cool...
Re: Geodesic greenhouseTue, January 13, 2009 - 6:35 AMi33.photobucket.com/albums/d...efarm.jpg
This is the dome. As you can see it is quite large. When it was covered it got REALLY hot in there. Good advise about the vent.
Re: Geodesic greenhouseTue, January 13, 2009 - 6:37 AMthe dome is 20' in diameter and about 16' tall.

Re: Burning Man Rebar removal for domesTue, January 13, 2009 - 1:06 PMJust remember that you can't leave the rebar in the ground when your leave Burning Man. The BRC rangers can help you pull them out if you have problems pulling them out yourself. I seem to recall that we had a jeep with a winch on it to help accomplish the rebar removal for our dome...for the handful of stakes that wouldn't come out easily.
Also, it helps if you have a candy cane profile to the rebar stakes so that people stumbling around the dome don't get skewered...and the hook in the rebar can be used to hook ropes, the dome, etc to etc, etc.
Re: Geodesic greenhouseWed, February 4, 2009 - 11:25 PMCreate some type of wind block, at least on the north side. A hedge row or a block wall, maybe a fence, a wall could help reflect solar radiation if you do it right.
I'd also consider having a bottom few pieces removable as well as a top one or two for venting. Figure a way to remove the plastic all together easily, if you know in advance of some high winds, just open the thing up, that's what professionals do. I think that if reinforcing the structure with guy wires is a good idea, presuming all your connections are secure and the steaks (rebar!) or forms are well attached to the ground.
But keep in mind that the more structural components you have in your greenhouse the more light will be shaded from your plants. Different materials have different light transmittance characteristics, obviously you want something that seals well and allows the maximum light in the photosynthetic active radiation (PAR) obviously. I think if you dig with those key words you should get some listings. You will loose light if you double materials too. Plastic sheeting's work very well for sealing in air, glass or plexi-glass is generally more drafty due to the pane-joints. Plastic is cheap and if you replace it every year, you will probably have still spent less money after a few years than if you go with glass.
So how big is this geo-dome?

The reason I'm bringing it to your attention is because he's used a program called Comic Book Creator to create the speech bubbles. I haven't used it myself but the result seems quite pleasing but personally I'd rather
use Photoshop or Illustrator because the skills can be applied to a broader range of tasks.
Obviously you need a certain skills level to create similar speech bubbles using Photoshop or Illustrator but it takes time to learn. Nonetheless I recommend you find some method of using anti-alias the text and speech bubbles (I.e. smooth out the jagged edges) in your next comic. You've done a lot of great work with the MOCing and story so slicker graphics would really set everything off! *y*

Although I don't see the use of talking about how unprofessional the girl is then immediately writing what appears to be a glowing review about her musical stylings.
On the other hand this could be something completely different, either a crazy stalker expressing his love for the singer in the hopes she sees this, or simply some guy being duped by another person on the web pretending to be her.
Regardless, this entire report is strange.

text: Description Suggest an Edit The Zoar Valley Trail winds along the Tuscarawas River for 20 miles between the village of Schoenbrunn in the south and Fort Laurens State Memorial in Bolivar in the north. The path is mixture of rolling hills and level areas through wooded tracts, open spaces, farmland and suburban back yards.The trail passes by many historical sites of interest, including the villages of Zoar and Schoenbrunn (the latter founded in 1772), Camp Tuscazoar, Dover Dam, the Ohio & Erie Canal, Fort Laurens and a pre-Revolutionary War encampment. You'll also find a couple railroad trestles, one known as Fink Truss Bridge, which is a one-of-a-kind on the National Register of Historic PlacesIn addition to the historic sites, you can visit the Zoar Wetland Arboretum and you can camp at Tuscazoar, which about the halfway point. Both primitive tent sites and lodges are available but the camp recommends reserving a spot in advance. The Camp Tuscazoar Foundation manages the trail.The Zoar Valley Trail is paved in the south, and is more hilly, while the southern section, north of the camp, has a natural surface and is more level. Part of the trail follows an old railroad right of way and the Ohio & Erie Canal towpath. North of Bolivar you can pick up the Ohio & Erie Canalway Towpath and continue to Cleveland.

The 22 Launch brings back the classic Chris-Craft lines of the 20's and 30's. Her spacious open-bow layout offers lots of room for a 22-footer.
Same Hull, Different Decks
The Corsair 22 and Launch 22 share the same 23' 2" LOA (7.06 m) x 8' 3" (2.52 m) beam deep-V-hull, but differ in the deck design: The Corsair is a cuddy model, the Launch a bowrider. Each boat is reminiscent of the Golden Age of runabouts, but built with modern technology and equipment. Chris-Craft offers a choice of engines in both, now starting with either a 300-hp 5.7Gi Volvo Penta or a MerCruiser 350 MAG MPI of the same power.
The Launch 22 is an elegant bow rider. Her new design adds more room in the forward cockpit, according to Chris-Craft.
When we tested a Launch 22 with a 270-hp Volvo Penta 5.0GXi, the boat ran 49.1 mph (79 kph), cruised at 35.6 mph (57.3 kph); with the new 300-hp standard engine, her performance should be a little better. Chris-Craft lists both the Launch 22 and Corsair 22 at the same displacement, so the performance should be similar for both, too.
The revamped engine-hatch cushion on the Corsair 22 has a centerline walk-over for easier passage between the cockpit and platform; no more treading on the upholstery. The Launch 22 enjoys a similar improvement. The aft seat aboard both boats has been redesigned, too.
Easier Deck Access
The cuddy-cabin layout of the Corsair 22 requires a safe, convenient method of accessing the foredeck. The boat originally had the typical walk-through windshield, but now Chris-Craft says they have modified that design for easier passage from the cockpit. They didn't tell us exactly what the change was, but, based on the boat-show photos the company provided, it looks to us like a deck hatch has been added just forward of the walk-through windshield, maybe incorporating steps. We'll have to wait and see.
The square panel ahead of the opening section of the windshield looks to us like a deck hatch. Could it hide molded steps that facilitate moving from the cockpit onto the deck?
The Oldest Boatbuilder?
Chris-Craft is arguably the world's most famous production boatbuilder, and certainly one of the oldest. It was founded by Christopher Columbus Smith before the turn of the 20th century: Smith built his first boat, a hunting skiff, in 1874; by the 1920s he was building Gold Cup-winning race boats. Soon everyone wanted a Chris-Craft, so Smith developed standardized models that could be built quickly and efficiently in a factory. (This was the era of Henry Ford and the production line.)
Chris-Craft Corsair 22 floor plan.
Was Chris-Craft the first production boatbuilder? If not, it was certainly one of the first, and one of the longest-lived, too. Today, Chris-Craft builds some of the most elegant runabouts around, boats that can hold their own in styling and aesthetics with the best Mediterranean speedboats. In the 21st century, the company builds boats from 20 to 36 feet.
Last year's Corsair 22 had a single aft pad. Moving onto the platform demanded walking on the upholstery. The new pad has a pathway for better footing, less wear on the vinyl.

Stewart awarded Citizen of Honour
Salisbury Open Meet
Fareham Nomads swimmers competed at the popular Salisbury open meet on Sunday 5th June. This is the fifth consecutive year the club have entered this event and, as in previous years, this year proved to be highly successful.
A total of 37 Nomads' swimmers entered and swam 222 events between them. They won 13 gold, 15 silver and 25 bronze medals as well as improving on their personal best times in 169 events. In the boys 10years 100 metre backstroke Nomads' swimmers achieved a clean sweep winning gold, silver and bronze. A special mention goes to Harvey Spoor who broke the English Deaf Age Group records for the 11 and under boys in the 100 IM and 50 and 100 breaststroke.
Club swimmers were involved in a number of close and exciting races but the best was left until last. The very last event of the day was the boys 100 metre butterfly. In the last heat Ethan Childs from Nomads was over a metre behind the race leader going into the last 25 metres. With a supreme effort he managed to win the race by the narrow margin of 0.42 seconds to take gold and beating his entry time by almost 4 seconds.
More than half of the clubs' swimmers finished in the top three in their age group with many being multiple medal winners. Anna Ross led the way with 2 gold, 2 silver and 3 bronze medals. Other multiple gold medallists were Ryan Ireland with 2 gold and 2 silver and Evie Rowsell and George Lambert both with 2 a piece. Thomas Dickson won 1 gold,3 silver and a bronze, Georgia Kennedy 1 gold, 1 silver and 4 bronze, Ethan Childs 1 gold, 1 silver and 2 bronze, Harvey Spoor 1 gold and 1 bronze and Edward Hollands with 1 gold. Further medallist were Cillian Ross 2 silver and 2 bronze, Ruby Hudson 1 silver and 2 bronze, Oliver Jones 1 silver and 1 bronze and Harriet Burnham and Amelia Boyes with a silver medal each. The medal haul was completed with bronze medals from Charlie Hollyer with 3, Ben King with 2 and one each from Sophie Kent, Jamie King, Maddie Thompson and Lucy Murdoch.
South East Regional Championships
Fareham Nomads swimmers enjoyed the final weekend of the South East Regional Swimming Championships at K2 swimming pool in Crawley at the weekend.
Fareham Nomads were represented by Ellen Jewell, Hannah Cooper, Joe Davies and Matthew Sullivan.
Coach Stewart Crowe said: "Between them they competed in 12 events over two days of competition. "It was 14-year old Matthew Sullivan that became the only medal winner from the group, he claimed a bronze medal in the 200m Backstroke in a personal best time of 2.23.18, a small improvement on the time he set in the heat which was also a personal best time. "Matt has also qualified for ASA Summer National Championships for the Boys 14 years 200m Backstroke, a delightful result."
Sullivan also set best times for the 200m Individual Medley, 100m Backstroke and 400m Freestyle.
The youngest of the group, 11-year-old Ellen Jewell showed her promise by claiming a place in the 11/12 years 100m freestyle final in a personal best time of 1.06.40, she will be competing in this age group in 2017. She also set best times in the 50m Backstroke and 50m Butterfly.
Hannah Cooper ended her regional début with personal best times in the 200m and 100m Breaststroke recording 3.00.99 and 1.25.59, both times being up to her short course best.
The final swimmer was Joe Davies who also swam well to claim personal best times in the 200m Individual Medley, 100m and 200m Backstroke.
Minor League Round 1
Fareham Nomads A team swam to victory in the first round of the 2016 Minor League competition.
The club has two teams entered, with the A team competing at Fareham Leisure Centre against Winchester, Haslemere, Andover and Sutton swimming clubs, while the B team travelled to Woking to compete against Woking, Rushmoor and Henley.
Head coach Stewart Crowe said: "It was the open age group swimmers of the A team that stole the show and dominated from start to finish gaining a total of 69 points from a possible 70.
"Swims included Beatrice Hollands 100m Breaststroke 1.23.57, Chris Finch 100m Breaststroke and Individual Medley, Dan Alberts 100m Butterfly and Freestyle, Jess Davies 100m Freestyle and Butterfly, Izzy Talbot 100m Butterfly and Individual Medley, and Assistant Coach John Molyneaux in the 100m Backstroke."
Throughout the 53-event gala it was always going to be a close competition and there was never more than 10 points separating the squads from Winchester and Fareham. At the halfway stage of the gala it was still any one club to win or lose. The hosts had opened up an 8-point lead over Winchester with Haslemere a further 2 points adrift.
Further wins came from Hannah Cooper, Oliver Bulpett and Maddie Thompson keeping the Fareham squad in the lead. With 10 events remaining the hosts had a 10-point lead. Matthew Sullivan also made it a double triumph in the 50m Backstroke and Freestyle recording 33.97 and 31.91 respectively with both swims being personal best achievements. There were also wins from Ellen Jewell, Harvey Spoor, Olivia Busher and Ryan Ireland.
Final Points & Positions:
Fareham Nomads 209
Winchester 199
Haslemere 177
Andover 116

Maximum points were gained by Amelia Boyes (50m Freestyle, 33.53 pb) Haydn Clinton (50m Butterfly, 34.27 pb). Wins were also achieved by the more established members of the club; Clive Marquis (100m Freestyle 55.58), Matt Riley 100m Individual Medley 1.07.44, and Aiden Phillips 100m Backstroke 1.05.51.

Jean Hillman Trophy
On Saturday 23rd April Fareham Nomads hosted the Annual Jean Hillman Memorial Trophy Gala at Fareham Leisure Centre.
The club host this event in association with a former Swimmer, Adrian Hillman, in memory of his mother, Mrs Jean Hillman. Mrs Hillman sadly passed away whilst Adrian was young and still at the start of his competitive swimming career. Mrs Hillman had so much enjoyment seeing the younger swimmers at the club compete, that her husband approached the Club and asked to sponsor a gala in his wife's memory. Now in its' 36th year, the Jean Hillman Memorial Trophy has become an established gala on the local swimming fixture list and is a fabulous way for younger swimmers to gain experience swimming in a highly competitive, but very enjoyable and safe environment.
This year's Gala did not disappoint, with solid competition amongst local clubs – Wildern Waves, Southampton Dolphins, Locks Heath Swim School, Gosport Dolphins and Fareham Nomads.
The hosts got off to a flying start winning the opening relay event and the first 2 individual events courtesy of Ellen Jewell and Tom Dickson.
At the halfway point in the competition it was a very close run competition with outstanding performances on the individual races and also relay events across the board. As the evening progressed it was clear that the competition would remain close between Fareham Nomads and Southampton Dolphins who had opened up an 11 point lead. This was despite two wins from Charlie Holyer and 1 each from George Lambert and Joe Davies. This helped close the gap to only 5 points.
Despite a valiant effort from a very young team and further wins from Charlie Holyer, Cillian Ross, Emily Blake, Ryan Ireland, Tom Dickson, Hannah Cooper, Ben King and Joe Davies Fareham Nomads were pipped at the post into 2nd place with 260 points against Southampton Dolphins in first place scoring 271 pts. Locks Heath were placed 3rd, Wildern Waves 4th and Gosport Dolphins 5th.
Adrian Hillman presented the Jean Hillman Trophy to the winning team in front of a very full and supportive group of spectators from across the region.
"This event is always a fantastic opportunity for our younger swimmers to get a great experience of competitive swimming. The atmosphere was amazing especially towards the end of the evening when the competition was very close." Said Stewart Crowe, Head Coach at Fareham Nomads. Crowe continued "The swimmers all put in a huge amount of effort and it is disappointing that we did not win, however I am sure our very young team will gain much from this experience.
Adrian Hillman joined FNSC as a 9/10 year old and competed for the club all the way through to the natural cut off at 16/17.
Adrian was, and remains one of the most successful swimmers FNSC has ever produced, competing at County, Regional and National level; including a Junior international selection for Team GB swimming against Germany and Russia.
Adrian's lead stroke was breaststroke, and swam 1.04s for 100m and 29s for 50m. If he were to be ranked against today's swimmers, as a 16 year old, he would still rank in the top 15 nationally for 100m and top 30 for 50m.
Isle of Wight Masters
Two Fareham Nomads masters swimmers made a splash by claiming seven gold, six silver and one bronze medal at the Isle of Wight Masters Open Meet.
Jacqui King was in great form winning 6 Gold in the 50m Backstroke, 200m Freestyle, 100m Freestyle, 50m & 25m Butterfly and 50m Freestyle and Silver in the 25m Freestyle.
Paul's Rowan only Gold came in the 50m Backstroke, his 5 Silver medals came in the 100m Individual Medley, 100m Backstroke, 25m Butterfly, 100m Breaststroke and 25m Freestyle. His only Bronze was for the 50m Freestyle.
Head coach Stewart Crowe said "Overall a great set of results from the pair of masters swimmers who only train with the club for two sessions per week.
"The Fareham Nomads Masters squad is a fast improving group of swimmers and has room for more to join those that wish to compete, swim for Triathlon events or just to improve their water skills and level of fitness."
Twelve months on from her last visit to the South East Region Masters Championships 45-year old swimmer Jo Corben again displayed her massive talent in setting a new World Record of 2.25.12 in the 200m Backstroke. This is more than 1.5 seconds faster than the British and European Record she set 12 months ago.
Fareham Nomads swimmer Jo, 45, has started 2016 in the same manner she finished 2015, in record breaking form. 2015 was a great year for her setting a total of eight British and four European Records, although being close to the World Record it has eluded her until the 23rd January 2016.
Jo just missed out on breaking her own British record in the 100m backstroke in a time of 1.09.54, which missed the mark by 0.15 sec. In her weakest event, the 50m Backstroke, she also swam to record breaking level with a British record time of 33.32.
Stewart Crowe, Head Coach at Fareham Nomads, said: "The setting of a World Record was the main target for the European Championships which will be held at the London Aquatic Centre in May. She can now prepare for these Championships with even more belief that she can go even faster."
Jo has recently returned to Fareham Nomads to train with her former coach, Stewart Crowe. Although a Masters Swimmer she trains with the clubs' Top Squad as well as the newly formed Masters Squad.
Jo said: "I absolutely love being back at Fareham Nomads and truly believe that head coach Stewart Crowe and assistant coach John Molyneaux can coach me to be even faster.
"I have to thank my husband Tony for being so supportive, I couldn't manage without him. It's back to hard work now to focus on the Europeans."
Jo will next compete at the County Championships on the 6th and 7th of February but against swimmers many years younger.
Stewart added: "I would not bet against her breaking her own record, such is her talent and determination."
As well as Jo, the club also had Paul Rowan, Tony Corben, Noemie Peignon, Laura Molyneaux and Claire Tagg competing at the South East Region Masters Championships.
Team mates Noemie and Laura were also in record breaking form with Noemie setting a SE Regional record in the 200m Butterfly recording 2.41.03 and also collected her second gold of the meet with a time of 29.61 in the 50m Freestyle.
Laura Molyneaux another swimmer recently returned to the sport after a very successful time as an Age Group swimmer won Gold in the 200m Individual Medley in a SE Regional Record time of 2.36.66 and Silver in the 100m Butterfly in 1.12.49.
Claire Tagg also chipped in with a medal winning performance snatching Bronze in the 200m Individual Medley with 3.12.96 and a 4th place in the 200m Breaststroke in 3.22.47.
The final medal from the group of five swimmers came from Tony Corben in the 200m Butterfly in a time of 3.22.36, together with a 5th place in the 400m Freestyle in 5.36.89.
Paul Rowan competed in the 100m Breaststroke, 1.28.71 for 5th place and very credible 50m freestyle in 30.99 for 10th place.
Hampshire County Championships - 23rd & 24th January 2016
Members of Fareham Nomads competed at the 1st of three weekends of the 2016 Championships at the Mountbatten Swimming Pool in Portsmouth.
It was 11-year old Ellen Jewell that led the way for the Fareham swimmers who claimed three Gold medals in arguably the toughest of the swimming events; 400m Individual Medley, 400m Freestyle and the 800m Freestyle. All her times were personal best performances. The youngster who only turned 11 on 15 January displayed her potential for the future.
Head coach Stewart Crowe said: "She was the only 11-year old to contest the 400m Individual Medley and her time of 6.07.02 would have placed her third in the 12 year age group. The 800m Freestyle was very close with Ellen just taking the Gold from Jessica Milligan of Southampton by the small margin of 0.03seconds."
There was no such margin in the shorter 400m Freestyle in which she was the clear winner recording an impressive 5.17.44 some 23 seconds inside her entry time.
Much improved Mathew Sullivan, competing in the 14 years age group also impressed with fine displays in the 400m Individual Medley, 400m Freestyle and 1500m Freestyle. Mathew does not turn 14 until later in the year so was also competing against those that could be nearly a year older.
Stewart added: "In his three events he also showed massive improvements and was somewhat unfortunate to only claim one Silver medal for his efforts, this was in the 1500m Freestyle recording a time of 18.54.09. He recorded two forth places in his other events."
The only other individual medal winner for the club was James Baxter, another to show great improvement winning Silver in the 400m Individual Medley in the 13 years age group.
In the relay events all teams exceeded the expectations of the coaching staff and returned with two medals for their efforts. Both of these were from the 13 year old boys with Gold in the 4x50m Medley team of Matthew Sullivan, Alex Finch, James Baxter and Joe Davies combining to record 2.08.94. In the Freestyle relay Matthew, James and Joe were joined by Oliver Bulpett to win the Bronze medal in a time of 1.55.93.
Hampshire County Championships - 30th & 31st January 2016
Fareham Nomads swimmers impressed for a second weekend at the Hampshire County Championships.
Swimmers aged 14 and under from Fareham Nomads took to the pool for the second weekend in a row.
Fareham Nomads, which is sponsored by Metis Homes, had a total of 138 swims and have gained 94 personal best times.
Head coach Stewart Crowe said: "The performance by Fareham Nomads was excelled by any ones standards.
"For the second weekend it was 11-year old Ellen Jewell that led the way for the Fareham swimmers who claimed a further three Gold medals with a clean sweep in the Butterfly events (200m, 100m and 50m). All her times in these three events were personal bests. This Gold success was backed up with 7 Silver medals in the 50m, 100m, 200m Freestyle; 50m, 100m, 200m Backstroke. Her last medal came in the 200m Individual Medley. Over the two weekends of competition she had a total of 20 races, making her the busiest of the clubs' swimmers."
The only other swimmer to win Gold was Oliver Bulpett who by his standards had a below par weekend, but made up for this disappointment by clinching the top spot in the 200m Breaststroke improving his best time to 2.51.87, a three second improvement.
James Baxter continued his good form with Silver medals in the 200m Individual Medley, 100m Butterfly, 100m Breaststroke and the shorter 50m event. More medal performances came with him winning 4 Bronze medals in the 50m Freestyle, Backstroke and Butterfly; his final podium place came in the 100m Backstroke.
Stewart added: "Arguably the most improved swimmer in the club, Matthew Sullivan continued to set new figures for all of the events he competed in, most pleasing of this that all his final swims were faster than his heat swims – something that all coaches aim for their charges to achieve."
He added to his medal haul from weekend 1 with 4 Silver medals and 1 Bronze in the 200m Backstroke, 200m Freestyle, 100m Backstroke, 50m Backstroke and 200m Individual Medley respectively. More than the medals it was the margin of improvement that pleased Head Coach Stewart Crowe. In the 200m Freestyle this improvement amounted to 10 Seconds since September; and an equally impressive 8 seconds for the 200m Backstroke.
The final medallist for the Nomads was Alex Finch with improved performances in the 50m Breaststroke and 100m Breaststroke to claim double Bronze.
Other final appearances were gained by Joe Davies, Hannah Cooper, Daisy Ireland, Ryan Ireland, Francis Moore, Maddie Thompson and Evie Rowsell.

Mohave Valley Jr. High will extend its school day for the new school year by 15 minutes, according to Academic Principal Christina Stahl. "In looking at our student data, it's become obvious that we need to incorporate a set period for remediation and enrichment much like the elementary schools have" noted Ms. Stahl. "Our experiment with quarter-long math and language arts support last year were successful, so we've decided to tweak the program a bit and roll the concept out on a permanent basis next year."

Radar systems that use frequency-modulated, continuous-wave (FMCW) waveforms are typically smaller and less expensive to manufacture than pulsed radar systems. FMCW waveforms can estimate the target range effectively, whereas the simplest continuous-wave waveforms cannot.
FMCW waveforms are common in automotive radar systems and ground-penetrating radar systems.
To create an FMCW waveform, use
phased.FMCWWaveform. You
can customize certain characteristics of the waveform, including:
Sample rate.
Period and bandwidth of the FM sweep. These quantities can cycle through multiple values during your simulation.
To find targets up to a given maximum range,
Sweep shape. This shape can be sawtooth (up or down) or triangular.
Tip For moving targets, you can use a triangular sweep to resolve ambiguity between range and Doppler.
phased.FMCWWaveform assumes that all frequency
modulations are linear. For triangular sweeps, the slope of the down
sweep is the opposite of the slope of the up sweep.
This example shows how to sample an FMCW waveform with a double triangular sweep in which the two sweeps have different slopes. Then, the example plots a spectrogram.
Create an FMCW waveform object for which the
SweepTime and
SweepBandwidth properties are vectors of length two. For each period, the waveform alternates between the pairs of corresponding sweep time and bandwidth values.
st = [1e-3 1.1e-3]; bw = [1e5 9e4]; sFMCW = phased.FMCWWaveform('SweepTime',st,... 'SweepBandwidth',bw,'SweepDirection','Triangle',... 'SweepInterval','Symmetric','SampleRate',2e5,... 'NumSweeps',4);
Compute samples from four sweeps (two periods). In a triangular sweep, each period consists of an up sweep and down sweep.
x = step(sFMCW);
Plot a spectrogram.
[S,F,T] = spectrogram(x,32,16,32,sFMCW.SampleRate); image(T,fftshift(F),fftshift(mag2db(abs(S)))) xlabel('Time (sec)') ylabel('Frequency (Hz)')

The Alonzo King LINES Ballet Discovery Project is an outreach program designed to diversify the scope of LINES Ballet's impact on young artists and communities nationwide. We collaborate with host schools and fellow dance educators across the country to provide intermediate to advanced dancers ages 13-24 with three- to five-day intensive workshops conducted by LINES Ballet faculty members.
"My daughter has always loved dance, but from the intense, encouraging, and specifically passionate teachers from LINES this last weekend, she has experienced an even greater joy in her dance. Her regular ballet teacher called me today just to let me know that she had noticed a change in my daughter's dancing in class this week—an inner strength and beauty that projected outward that seemed to rise above anything else she has ever done in class." Parent of a Discovery Project dancer
San Francisco, CA: January 7-10, 2016
Tampa, FL: January 21-24, 2016
Dallas/Plano, TX: February 11-14, 2016
Discovery Projects include a diverse curriculum of Ballet, Modern, Improvisation, Contemporary Partnering, Movement Exploration, Choreography and LINES Repertoire. Classes and faculty will vary by location.
Discovery Projects are offered to dancers at a minimal cost for the entire workshop. Pre-registration is required. Please see the webpage for your specific Discovery Project location for the exact cost and payment instructions.
One Discovery Project Participant will receive a full tuition scholarship to our 2016 Summer Program.
The Discovery Project addresses ways to use dance to bridge gaps created by diversity of experience, perspective, culture, and socioeconomic background. We aim to contribute to the overall awareness and support of dance in communities all over the country. The program was initiated in 2008 with an inaugural project in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Since that first successful project, our program has broadened to include locations as diverse as St. Petersburg and Tampa, Florida; Kansas City, Missouri; Dallas, Texas; Tucson, Arizona; and Oakland, California.
At most Discovery Projects there is the opportunity to audition for the Alonzo King LINES Ballet summer program. Separate from the workshop, auditions will be held on-site. Pre-registration is encouraged. However, it is often the fact that young dancers evolve in our Discovery Projects and realize here that they are interested in the focused track of a summer program. We are elated to offer day-of registration for just these reasons.

Free Flex Evo 14Tyrolia
The Free Flex Evo 14 is a ski binding designed for junior racing athletes and ambituous riders. Its EVO toe is the redesign of the LX toe, fitting into the Tyrolia product family but being more dynamic then it's precursor. Fischer, Elan and HEAD Skis are also Equipped with this Binding .
UK Conventional JointsOttobock
Redesign of the Ottobock UK orthotic joint portfolio with integrated bars. With the integration of slide bearings the joints have a much higher lifetime and can be easily serviced. The new design is implemented in smoother contours and softer edges. The new range also offers an improved locking mechanism for greater reliability and safety.
Neck and body are all from chopped down trees of Adams home (=emoh)-town Vienna. The neck is made out of Celtis. (thanks to Vienna City Gardens MA42), the body aspen (Pappel). The acrylic pick guard is embedded flush with the body surface an held in place by magnets.
The Brick 08Kaulbach
This amp features a 6V6 8W SE output stage, tube driven tremolo, a footswitchable drive channel and a 10" Jensen C10R Speaker. The cabinet is pine plywood, covered with an extremely durable textile. It is side ported, retaining some of the punch associated with closed cabs but with a more "airy" feel. The Brick 08 is voiced for Blues and Rock players with an earlier breakup than The Wedge. This is a non-master volume amp but the cascaded drive stage can be controlled with an additional gain pot, essentially making this a two channel amp.

The reason this anime got a high score is because of its high standards for the genres it choose to portray. Bleach is an action adventure and comedy anime. It's about a high school student who meets a girl that only rare people can see because she is from another plane called the soul society. In a twist of events this teenage boy gets a powers of a soul reaper but as they say in subs shinigami which means god of death. In this anime its full of hardcore action good comedy and an epic adventure with an amazing storyline.
This is a review though my opinion try it yourself if your intrested in these genres
As of December 13, 2011 there is 352 episodes in sub and more to come
In english were on the muramasa saga which might be around 150-180 its on adult swim 12am sunday
Shitty advertisement of a shitty show. In any case, not a review.


text: Administration DB Sponsors Have Incentive to Keep Plans Well Funded July 2, 2012 (PLANSPONSOR.com) – New pension rules will reduce defined benefit (DB) plan sponsors' near-term required contributions, but will also raise premiums to the PBGC (Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation). By Rebecca Moore firstname.lastname@example.com | July 02, 2012 Page 1 of 2 View Full Article The bill provides real and material relief for corporate sponsors facing significant increases in cash contributions over the next few years (see "Congress Passes Bill with Pension Funding Relief"). That relief could be in the range of $40 to $50 billion for S&P 1500 plan sponsors for 2012 and could total well over $100 billion through 2014 according to Mercer estimates. The plans that would otherwise fall below key funding thresholds will now have more time to improve the funding levels and avoid restrictions on their ability to pay some accelerated benefit forms, such as lump sums. Mercer notes the bill does not change plan sponsors' underlying pension obligations; it gives them more time to address their plans' current funding shortfalls, many of which are the result of today's low interest rate environment. PBGC premiums rise substantially for all plans and underfunded plans, in particular, will incur higher variable-rate premiums. PBGC flat-rate premiums will increase from $35 to $42 per participant in 2013 and $49 in 2014, and then will be indexed for inflation. In addition, the PBGC variable-rate premium that is assessed on each $1,000 of unfunded vested benefits will more than double by 2015.

Mozilla Corp. on Wednesday released the first beta of Firefox 2.0, the preview browser formerly known as Bon Echo.
The beta, which on Monday was reported as imminent (by TechWeb, among others), is not suitable for end users, Mozilla said. "We do not recommend that anyone other than developers and testers download the Firefox 2 Beta 1 milestone release. It is intended for testing purposes only," the company's site read Wednesday.
Among the features new to Firefox 2.0 are an in-line spell checker, anti-phishing alerts, and restore-after-crash; the browser also sports improvements to its tabs, news feeds, and extension and theme add-ons.
According to the still-posted development map, Beta 1 was originally scheduled to appear in June, with Beta 2 in July and a final in August. Notes of a Tuesday Mozilla staff meeting, however, indicate that Beta 2 won't appear until August 11, which would push a final Firefox 2.0 into September at the earliest.
Besides generally waving users away from Beta 1, Mozilla also noted that most extensions and themes won't immediately work with the browser.
Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux versions of Firefox 2.0 Beta 1 can be downloaded from this page of the Mozilla Web site.

Calvary's Father James (Brendan Gleeson, "In Bruges") is a good priest who is faced with sinister and troubling circumstances brought about by a mysterious member of his parish. Although he continues to comfort his own fragile daughter (Kelly Reilly "Flight") and reach out to help members of his church with their various scurrilous moral - and often comic - problems, he feels sinister and troubling forces closing in, and begins to wonder if he will have the courage to face his own personal Calvary.
