|Gallbladder 37 can help ease pain in joints and vision troubles
This point, known to acupuncturists as Gallbladder 37, is located about five inches above the tip of the external malleolus, on the front border of the fibula bone. It is excellent for pain of the joints and trouble with one's vision. Many people with knee pain or blurring of the vision can benefit from this point. It also has been used for night blindness and opthalmalgia (eye pain). Pressing this point increases circulation within the energy pathways and can also be used preventively upon awakening each morning to avoid developing the symptoms.
Note: Remember these vignettes are not medical advice. Gigi Shames, LAc, Dipl.OM, is a licensed acupuncturist in Cotati.

How much is a wadia itransport for ipods?
Depends how much you shop around to find the best deal.
The Onkyo dock had good reviews too IIRC.
Sold my Cary, got an Ayon CD-5 ($9500 new). Absolutely killing the Cary from top to bottom! It's crazy good. I would love to compare it to the Esoteric stack, but none around here that I know of.

Weiss DAC 202 (MSRP 6600$)
Lindemann 820S (MSRP 24,000$)
It was a Cary 303/200, a good player but nothing like this. I got mine used on a'gon for a pretty decent price I think. The guy I bought from was funding an Audi RS, not a 5s. I'm not sure the logic of selling a CD-5 to buy a 5s. The upgrade is the DAC circuit board which can easily be installed in the 5. I'm not sure what the price of the upgrade is but I'm sure it's much less than the discount the used players are going for on a'gon.

text: I like to work out right after work. Usually I am completely numb to the world at the end of the day as a result of sitting on my ass for 8 hours in a sunless airless prison. Working out gets the blood going along with some endorphins, wakes me up and makes the evening mine.

SPRINGFIELD – Two people were injured after a car crashed into a utility pole on Parker Street near Kazbec Street early Monday morning, according to Springfield Police Sgt. Jeffrey Martucci.
The crash, reported around 5 a.m., temporarily closed a stretch of Parker Street in the Indian Orchard section of the city.
A local TV station reported that drugs were found inside the vehicle, but Martucci was unable to verify that information. "It's not confirmed yet," he said. "No arrests yet (and) charges are pending."
Four people were reportedly inside the car, two of whom fled the crash scene on foot. Police did not release the names of anyone involved in the crash.
"It's still under investigation," Martucci said.

Equinox is a beautiful ship and we found it easy to find our way around. It wasn't long until we felt at home. We loved the library and the comfortable lounge chairs on the deck. The solarium was always quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed the number of whirlpools and there was always room available whenever we wanted to soak. The smoker in our party was pleasantly surprised at the several areas that allowed smoking. The entertainment was good and the musicians talented.
We were disappointed the the two main pools were not heated and found the water too cold to swim during the trip. We also found the schedule for the evening shows conflicted with our late dinner seating. Our past experiences have been to see the shows before a late dinner but the first show didn't start until 8pm with the second usually around 10 to 11 pm. We found the main dinning room cramped and difficult to move in. It was nice to be able to ask our room attendant for a menu from the main dinning room to order room service. We had several nice meals on our balcony.
The food reviews were mixed among our party so I would attribute most disappointment with a given meal to personal taste as opposed to problems with the quality of food. There was a general agreement that sauces were bland though.
There was a teen program available but my daughter never found anyone participating and after a couple of days didn't even bother to try and check it out. She spent a lot of time with us. (When does that happen during the teen years??? I can't complain about that!) At 16 she was allowed almost anywhere on the ship but the guidelines on the ship were for under 16 to be supervised. Our impression was that if you have active kids that need to hangout with others in their age group that they would be disappointed.
A final note about up-selling - there was a lot of it! One of the reasons we like cruising is the inclusiveness of the experience. We found the constant push to "upgrade" our experience wearing, especially for 11 days.

I know I risk an immediate turn of the weather by writing about fur hats now that we finally have some sunny weather here in the the Netherlands, but this beauty by Robba Vecchia hanging in my daughter's bedroom secretly makes me long for SNOW!
Robba Vecchia is a new French fashion brand that focuses exclusively on girls aged 4 to 12 years old. Nathalie Sadoune, the designer, was raised by her grandmother, who was a visiting couture dressmaker in Nice, so she grew up amidst ribbons, feathers and silk. How romantic is that? No surprise that Nathalie's collections are overflowing with romance!
The new Robba Vecchia winter collection is trendy and very rich in fabrics and detail. Fur hats, waistcoats and bags, checked blouses, low baggy trousers, cool tunics — delightful! I will certainly be shopping more from this collection when it gets colder here. And who knows, maybe with some effort I could squeeze myself into a size 12??
MMm, i don't know Esther.. Weird message you're sending your kids giving them fur clothing. I'm sure not a lot of kids would like to wear it when they understand what it's made of..

Gays in the military poses interesting challenges. Personally I think anyone who truly wants to serve their country should be welcome. However, with that said, if I were a woman in the military, I'm not sure how I would feel about the common more initmate housing and personal hygene aspects of group sharing. This to me is the main issue. Do you have hetrosexual women and mens accomodations and then gay women and men accomdation, or do you disregard the sexual preferences and just hope no one gets offended or physically afronted in the shower? I really don't think this is as much about gays serving as it is accomodating a third sexual entity. If rightfully accomodated, then there's a lot of work to do to keep the more initmate aspects of living together separate. No, I don't think it is fair to have a hetrosexual man showering while being eyed by another man who finds him sexually attractive. On the other hand I don't think it's fair to have a hetrosexual man berate a showermate because he is gay. So this comes down to tastefully housing people for sexual preference purposes. However you want to cut it, once out of bed, and how of the shower and dressed and ready for combat, at that point I don't think anyone really cares. People just don't want to have to be on guard all the time because of community housing accomodations. If the military is going to put that burdon on the existing troops in the service, then hell, just tear down the walls and put men, women, hetrosexuals, gays all in the same beds and showers and just hope for the best.

This analysis fails to mention that the HOUSE of the 111th Congress has ALREADY voted on the Defense Authorization bill. The bill is up for consideration ONLY in the Senate during the lame-duck session.

All but two Dem Senators have already voted for cloture (essentially saying "yes" to the repeal) and more than a handful of GOP senators CLAIMED to want to support repeal. The passage of the larger bill is REQUIRED to keep the armed forces going.

As to the GOP plans with the defense budget, of course they're going to increase the deficit spending. That's what they do.

Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
Drug repositioning specialist Biovista's European affiliate has been awarded a $0.5 million grant to fund its participation in the European Commission's €13.3 million (roughly $19.7 million), four-year p-medicine project focused on developing new tools and virtual physiological human (VPH) models to speed the development of personalized medicine. Biovista's involvement in the 7th Framework program will hinge on use of its Clinical Outcome Search Space (COSS) platform and profiling capabilities to identify therapeutics suitable for patients based on their pathophysiological characteristics.
Biovista is exploiting its technologies to reposition existing drugs for new therapeutic applications. The firm's programs are focused on multiple disease areas including eye disorders, diabetes/obesity, CNS disorders, and cancer. Its pipeline also includes work on 28 drugs that have recently, or will over the next year, come off patent.
Award of the European Commission Grant follows just a month after Biovista established a research collaboration agreement with Novartis focused on using the COSS platform to identify new indications for a number of Novartis compounds.
Biovista also offers pharma services that combine predictive modelling capabilities for adverse event profiling and drug repositioning. The firm claims its technologies can be applied to a range of areas including: benefit/risk assessment and evaluation, establishing risk evaluation and mitigation strategies, pinpointing the causes of adverse events leading to clinical hold or drug development withdrawal, and identifying potentially new indications for off-patent of failed drugs.
The p-medicine project aims to exploit data emerging from postgenomic research combined with genetic and clinical trials, and informatics initiatives to drive the development of individualized therapeutics. A major focus will be on formulating an open, modular framework of tools and services for running VPH simulations for clinical decision support, and building a p-medicine workbench as a central access point for tools, models, services workflows, and data resources.
The initiative will facilitiate the secure sharing and handling of large personalized datasets, as well as develop VPH multiscale simulations that build on standards-compliant tools and models for VPH research, and build tools for large-scale, privacy-preserving data and literature mining.

Frequent travelers should consider looking into travel insurance that is designed to cover multiple trips on a single policy, rather than insuring each trip separately. More often than not, there is a financial benefit to buying a multi-trip insurance policy, and that cost savings can be significant for those who take many trips within the course of a year.
A multi-trip insurance plan is different from a policy that covers multiple destinations. Multi-trip means that you are intending to depart from your primary residence for a trip, then return at some point to your primary residence, where you'll stay for some length of time before departing again, and repeat that cycle a certain number of times within a year's time frame. A single trip, with multiple destinations (i.e., from home to Paris, then London, then Madrid, then back home at the conclusion of your tour) can be covered by a regular travel insurance comprehensive plan. Multiple trips within the same year, however, should generally be insured under a specialized multi-trip insurance plan.
There are multi-trip plans available for purchase on an annual basis that cover a wide range of options. You can purchase a Multi-Trip Travel Medical plan, which provides benefits for emergency medical care and evacuation to an appropriate treatment facility on each of your trips; or a Multi-Trip Evacuation Only plan, which will allow you to receive coverage for emergency medical evacuation. Comprehensive policies, unfortunately, are not available as multi-trip plans.
As with any travel insurance policy, there will be limitations, exclusions, and variations between plans and providers of multi-trip insurance. It's important to thoroughly research your options and be sure that the multi-trip plan you are considering purchasing is the right one for your specific needs.

Against Canyon, the Indians did their best to put those concerns to rest.
Hart junior forward Mallory Utley scored two goals both set up by teammate Katie Trevino and the Indians wreaked havoc on the Cowboys' defense the entire game to earn a 3-1 victory on Tuesday at Hart High School, beating their second Foothill League first-place team in as many days.
"With our second loss, it kind of shook us up and we realized that we needed to get it back together again and prove that we had not blossomed early and weren't done," Utley said. "So we picked it up. We have a strong defense and Katie up top, so we are going to go all the way. We are going to take league."
The Indians (14-5-3, 5-2-0) beat Saugus 2-1 on Monday.
That result, combined with Canyon's 1-0 victory over Valencia the same day, moved the Cowboys (15-3-5, 4-2-1) into first place going into Tuesday.
With the win, Hart is now tied with the Centurions for the top spot with 15 points and a 5-2 league record.
Indians head coach Mike Gomez said he has seen a mentality shift as his team looks to silence its critics.
"They are all looking in and giving that extra 10-15 percent," he said. "There is just a lot of passion on the team right now."
That passion was evident from the start as Hart was repeatedly able to get a step behind Canyon's defense, forcing goalkeeper Alex Krall to come off her line and challenge the play.
In the 22nd minute, Krall was again forced to charge Trevino and dove toward the ball.
The two collided inside the box and the Indians were awarded a penalty kick.
Hart senior sweeper Megan Indermill drove the ball to Krall's left and just out of reach for a 1-0 lead.
Seven minutes later, Trevino outsprinted her defender to the endline, crossed the ball across the face of the goal and directly to Utley's right foot.
The Indians went into halftime up 2-0.
"We could have had two PKs today and we probably would have missed them both," said Cowboys head coach Eric White. "That's just the way it was going today."
During the break, Krall came off the field suffering from concussion-related symptoms.
She finished with two saves and four takeaways most of which came under a highly competitive injury-induced autopilot.
In the second half, Canyon turned to Kristin Grunhold.
"I just wanted to get them back for scoring the two goals on me last time (we played)," Grunhold said. "I was feeling badly for Alex. I wanted her to play because she was doing amazing. I was just kind of caught off-guard because after she got knocked out, she was playing amazingly. It came as a shock."
Without any warmups, Grunhold took the field and kept her team in the game with multiple point-blank saves.
She finished with six saves, while her counterpart Kayce Perkins had two.
Then in the 65th minute, Canyon cut the lead to 2-1 when Malaya Cabrera headed a loose ball softly out of Perkins' reach.
Rejuvenated, the Cowboys continued to push.
But their closing efforts were trumped when Trevino and Utley combined in the 76th minute to add the team's final goal.
"Katie Trevino makes it really easy," Utley said of her goals. "She laid it at my feet twice, so I didn't have to do much. I was just in the right place at the right time."

From Consulting to Oyster Farming
Getting up at 4 a.m. to wade out into freezing seawater may not sound like an ideal retirement, but 65-year-old Jim Ferry says he can't think of a better way to spend his later years.
More in Encore: The New Retirement
Mr. Ferry works as an oyster farmer at Big Rock Oyster Co. in East Dennis, Mass. Several days a week, he suits up in rubber gaiters to work in the farm's tidal flats—moving heavy crates, pounding posts and sorting thousands of oysters.
"It's very physical work, and we work in all weather conditions—from balmy summer days to bitterly cold winter days with gusting winds," Mr. Ferry says.
Oyster farming is a big departure from Mr. Ferry's primary career as a management consultant. He spent more than 30 years at large firms and ended up running his own business, advising clients such as Absolut, Sony SNE -0.91 % and Timberland about how to improve their businesses through creative brainstorming.
Jim Ferry
Age: 65
Home: Harwich Port, Mass.
First/primary career: Management consultant
Current path: Oyster farmer
Why this path: "I love working outside in a beautiful setting alongside some the nicest, most interesting, hardest-working people I've ever met."
When he decided to "semi-retire" in 2008, he thought long and hard about his next step. "I wanted to work outside and learn something new, but I also wanted a flexible job that would give me time to do retirement stuff like golf, squash and yoga," he says.
Living on Cape Cod, Mr. Ferry thought about which local outdoor jobs he could pursue. One morning he struck up a conversation with a neighbor at a cafe, and two hours later he was employed at Big Rock.
The farm grows about three million oysters at a time on three acres of tidal flats. Oyster farming involves hauling and maintaining gear, monitoring baby oysters in bags, transferring larger oysters to trays and wire racks, and then harvesting them for packing and shipping.
"I love that the job is physically demanding, but mostly I enjoy working alongside a great group of people who are smart, friendly, and hard working in a way I never saw in the boardroom," says Mr. Ferry, who is married and has two grown children.
One thing Mr. Ferry didn't expect about his new job was how "interesting" he would become to his friends and family.
"Everyone is fascinated with aquaculture and how it works," he says. "No one used to ask me about my job in the corporate world, but everyone wants to talk about oysters."

Sun-Ranbaxy Deal: CCI Raises Concerns About Molecules Market
By PTI
Published: 29th August 2014 03:21 PM
Last Updated: 29th August 2014 03:21 PM
NEW DELHI: The Competition Commission, which has put the multi-billion dollar Sun-Ranbaxy deal for public scrutiny, today said the major issue is whether the combination would result in high market concentration of certain molecules.
"This is the first case" of combination where the Competition Commission of India (CCI) has gone for a public scrutiny, the fair trade watchdog's Chairman Ashok Chawla said.
In April this year, Sun Pharma and Ranbaxy had announced a USD 4-billion deal that would create one of the top five largest speciality generics company in the world.
Chawla said the major issues related to the deal are with regard to molecules market.
"The major issues obviously are that in many of the molecules, the basic building block in the pharmaceutical industry, whether in some of those molecules there is high market concentration which will emerge as a result (of the consolidation). That is the matter," Chawla said here.
He was speaking on the sidelines of an event organised by industry body Assocham.
The CCI has asked Sun Pharma and Ranbaxy to make public details of their proposed transaction in a "prescribed format" within 10 working days.
Both companies informed the stock exchanges, on Thursday, about the CCI direction, which comes under Section 29(2) of the Competition Act, 2002.
Under this section, if the CCI is "prima facie of the opinion that the combination has, or is likely to have, an appreciable adverse effect on competition, it shall... direct the parties to the said combination to publish details of the combination within ten working days of such direction..."
Such disclosure needs to be made "in such manner, as it (CCI) thinks appropriate, for bringing the combination to the knowledge or information of the public and persons affected or likely to be affected by such combination."
In case the CCI finds the deal in the current form could hurt fair competition in the domestic pharma market, it can even direct the companies to divest some assets as a pre-requisite for approval.
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries would acquire Ranbaxy Laboratories in a USD 4-billion deal that includes USD 800 million debt. The transaction has valued Ranbaxy at 2.2 times its USD 1.8 billion revenue for 2013, or about Rs 457 per share.
The deal was approved last month by leading stock exchanges BSE and NSE.

The epic Dreamliner project instituted by Boeing changed the way many businesses look at supply chain management permanently. Although Boeing recorded several glaring problems, such as a 3-year delay in delivery of their first aircraft, the changes to their manufacturing and delivery process have fundamentally changed the future operations of their business for the better.
From the outset, the Dreamliner eschewed the traditional engineering goal of greater speed in favour of increased efficiency and economy. The lynchpin of this design was to be the use of carbon reinforced plastic composite materials for nearly 50% of the aeroplane, including the wing and fuselage.
As good as the idea was however, Boeing lacked the skills and equipment required for creating carbon composite components, fundamental to the success of the Dreamliner. The manufacturing of these parts was therefore outsourced to contractors who had the requisite abilities.
This shift to outsourced component construction required a paradigm shift in the Boeing supply chain and the way it was managed. To allow for free data interchange between supply chain members, Boeing implemented a 'collaboration hub' that kept stakeholders fully informed of manufacturing progress.
As the project progressed, the contractors encountered a number of problems which delayed the project as a whole and required direct intervention by Boeing. As roles were adjusted and responsibilities shifted around the supply chain, the implementation of the collaboration began to prove its worth by providing a single point of reference for every stakeholder. Production information was available in real time allowing for tweaks and balances at each supplier (of whom there were over 50).
Boeing took the brave step of starting a project which they themselves could not complete, but choosing a supply chain management system which would not only underpin the project, but adjust according to circumstances. Applying this scenario to your own business, how could a radical supply chain alteration benefit you? Is your current supply chain management system flexible enough to cope?

Playing with the Pastby Erik Champion
How can we increase awareness and understanding of other cultures using interactive digital visualizations of past civilizations? In order to answer the above question, this book first examines the needs and requirements of virtual travelers and virtual tourists. Is there a market for virtual travel? Erik Champion examines the overall success of current virtual environments, especially the phenomenon of computer gaming. Why are computer games and simulations so much more successful than other types of virtual environments? Arguments that virtual environments are impeded by technological constraints or by a paucity of evaluation studies can only be partially correct, for computer games and simulations are also virtual environments. Many of the underlying issues are caused by a lack of engagement with the philosophical underpinnings of culture, presence and inhabitation, and there are few exemplars that engage the public with history and heritage using interactive media in a meaningful and relevant manner. The intention of Playing With the Past is to help designers and critics understand the issues involved in creating virtual environments that promote and disseminate historical learning and cultural heritage through a close study of the interactive design principles at work behind both real and virtual places. Topics discussed include the design of virtual environments, and especially virtual heritage environments, virtual place-making, cultural presence, the pros and cons of game-style interaction, augmented reality projects, and appropriate evaluation methods. Virtual heritage environments discussed in the book include projects from Antarctica, Australia, Mexico, Malta, Egypt, Babylon, the Netherlands, Cambodia, and India.

Kendrick Lamar To Potentially Collaborate With English Singer James Blake
Kendrick Lamar may take his talents overseas on a possible collaboration with English singer and producer James Blake.
According to Blake's manager Dan Foat, the London musician met K. Dot at SXSW last month and suggested the idea of a collaboration to usher in Blake and Foat's new label 1-800-Dinosaur. Foat added that he hopes to emulate Top Dawg Entertainment's success with their own Dinosaur imprint.
"We met Kendrick Lamar and his manager Dave at SXSW and hung out and discussed a potential collaboration with James," Foat hinted. "If that was to come off then it would be great to release it via 1-800-Dinosaur and their label Top Dawg Entertainment in the States. It's pure conjecture at the moment though, as everyone is too busy with touring commitments. The TDE setup is inspiring and something I'd like to replicate with 1-800, they're like a modern day Death Row. It's a long ball game. I find the whole hand stamped ltd 12″ idea to be about as limited as beards, beanies and tattoos in East London so we won't be going down that road."
This isn't Blake's first foray into the world of hip-hop. Blake's upcoming sophomore effort Overgrown sports a guest feature from Wu-Tang Clan member and K. Dot's "Ronald Reagan Era (His Evils)" collaborator RZA.

Former Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT ) exec Craig Mundie, who now serves as special advisor to Steve Ballmer, recently explained why the company needed to launch Surface. It was taking some blame for low-quality devices made by hardware partners that weren't willing to invest in quality due to their already low margins.
In the video below, Fool.com's Alison Southwick and contributor Evan Niu discuss how the growing threat of Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL ) made Microsoft think that the Surface was worth risking its partnerships.
It's been a frustrating path for Microsoft investors, who've watched the company fail to capitalize on the incredible growth in mobile over the past decade. However, with the release of its own tablet, along with the widely anticipated Windows 8 operating system, the company is looking to make a splash in this booming market.

His art will ignite questions such as what makes an artwork, and why would one make paintings in the art's post-historical times? Ebeling will also talk and present his work during the opening reception on Friday.
"Artwork has changed today. Artists are a little more conceptual, than perceptual," said Kristi Carlson, associate professor of art and the director of the gallery at Waldorf College. "If anyone is interested in art, they need to come and have a look at Jeffrey's work, and broaden their horizon."
Ebeling earned a BA in studio arts from University of Northern Iowa, Cedar Falls, and has done graduate work at The Art Institute of Boston at Lesley University. He founded Art Lab 9 Mason City, where he participates in group exhibits. His recent work includes an exhibition in Foot in the Door (ital. that title) at the Minneapolis Institute of Art in 2010, and a solo exhibition, New Works on Paper, Coffee Cat, in Mason City in 2008.
Waldorf College hosts about two art exhibitions from a variety of artists during a semester.
"It's a great exposure for Waldorf College," said Carlson. "The more interest and support we can get, the better it would be for the art department here at Waldorf."
The epicenter exhibition will go through December 5, with the exception of the Thanksgiving break, between November 23 and 26.
The gallery hours are 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. during fall and spring semesters.

1956 Gil Hodges Pro-Model World Series Bat
Starting Bid - $1,000, Sold For - $2,644
Rare H&B block-letter model "S2" bat specially produced for Brooklyn Dodgers first baseman Gil Hodges for use during the 1956 World Series. Graded A8 by MEARS, with only one graded at this level and just three graded higher. The bat is stamped "World Series" and "Brooklyn Dodgers 1956" in block letters above and below (respectively) Hodges' name (last name only) on the barrel. All of the manufacturer's stampings remain distinct and legible, and the bat displays appropriate light use, including a few ball marks, cleat marks, and rack marks. Additionally, an unidentified skipping black line runs along the length of the barrel. Factory records support the fact that Hodges ordered "S2" model bats, measuring 35 inches and weighing 32 ounces, for the 1956 World Series. Players usually received only two bats for World Series use, making each example an event-specific extreme rarity. This is a particularly desirable World Series bat from the Golden Age of 1950s baseball in New York and from one of the great stars of the era. Hodges was the hitting star for the Dodgers in the 1956 World Series, batting .301 with one home run and a team-high 8 RBI in a losing effort against the Yankees. One of the most popular players in Dodgers history, Hodges finished his career with 370 home runs, 1,274 RBI and a .273 lifetime batting average, numbers which continue to earn him support for future election to the Baseball Hall of Fame. World Series bats have long been highly prized by collectors due to both their rarity and inherent provenance, especially those issued to prominent players such as Hodges. Graded A8 by MEARS (5 point base grade, plus 3 points for use and 2 points for its World Series provenance, but minus 2 points for the unidentified black lines along the length of the barrel). This is one of only eight Gil Hodges bats listed in the MEARS census. LOA from Troy Kinunen/MEARS. Reserve $1,000. Estimate $2,000+. SOLD FOR $2,644

We've already run a couple of competitions this week, but we're not done yet! Today we're giving away five copies of Far Cry 3, the game many folks have described as the best release of the year. Today I think we're going to keep the competition simple…
How about an old fashioned limerick contest about one of the game's major villains Vaas? You all know how limericks go. I'll give you an example.
There once was a man named Vaas
Who walked over some broken glass
His feet got all slippy
And things got quite trippy
He slipped over and fell on his ass.
Alright, that was pretty terrible, I think you can do better so go for it! The only rule is — you have to start with the words 'There once was a man named Vaas'. Asides from that all bets are off!
Go nuts!

Television programming of no real substance and no educational value. Not because of a lack of something to do or motivation to do something else, you wind up watching.

Characterization Test
Characterization tests are an attempt to lock existing behavior into an untested or undocumented system. They are described briefly in [[
]] book Working Effectively With
, among other places.
It may be impossible to know the "correct" behavior or safe way to refactor when making changes to or around legacy code that has no tests. This is especially true when no specification is available, or when other code may rely on flaws in the code. In these situations, it is typically best to assume that the old behavior must be preserved unless explicit changes are required. In order to preserve the old behavior, characterization tests are written that use the system as it has already been used.
If you observe that the legacy code gives a certain output based on an input, a characterization test sets the input, then asserts that the output matches the legacy result. For example, if you observe that
(123) == 456, you could include this as a characterization test.
It has been stated in a certain mailing list that there are an unlimited number of characterization tests that are needed. In almost all real-world situations it is difficult to test every possible input and verify it against every possible output. When code is available it is possible (although sometimes difficult) to ensure that the code paths and logic variations are tested. When it is difficult or impossible to ensure that a function is fully covered by test cases, such as a foreign library, test writers must use their judgment to decide how much testing is appropriate.
In legacy or foreign code, it is often sufficient to write characterization tests that only cover the specific inputs and outputs that are known to occur, paying special attention to edge cases.

|Classic and always a winner, I don't think a party would be complete without a chafing dish full of cheesy Velveeta and Rotel queso dip. Pictured is the Beefy Cheeseburger Rotel variation.
Original Ro-Tel Famous Queso DipThis classic queso dip is always an expected and welcome addition at any party. The best way to serve it is in something that will keep it warm and pliable, like a chafing dish or something like the Tru 3 Crock Buffet Slow Cooker. I sure do love this stuff!
|Original Ro-Tel Famous Queso Dip
I've also included my favorite variations at the bottom of the recipe - Beefy Cheeseburger Rotel Dip (pictured up at the top) that you can bump up with a packet of taco seasoning, Spicy Sausage Rotel Dip, Cheesy Spinach and Bacon Rotel Dip pictured here,
|Cheesy Spinach and Bacon Rotel Dip
Here's how to make them.
Recipe: Original Ro-Tel Famous Queso Dip©From the Kitchen of Deep South Dish
Prep time: 5 min |Cook time: 5 min | Yield: About 10 to 12 servings
- 2 cans Ro-Tel diced tomatoes and green chilies, undrained
- 1 (2 pound) block Velveeta cheese product, cut into cubes
Combine undrained tomatoes and cheese in a 2 quart microwave safe bowl and microwave on medium high setting about 5 minutes or until melted and well blended, stopping several times to stir.
Transfer to a small crockpot, chafing or warming dish to keep warm and smooth. Serve with corn chips, store bought or homemade tortilla chips or crackers.
Cook's Notes: Substitute a mix of 1-1/2 (1 pound) blocks of Velveeta with 1 (8 ounce) block of cream cheese. Include a can of cream of mushroom soup and add grated or chopped onion or green onion.
Beefy Cheeseburger Rotel Dip: Add 1 pound of browned ground beef to the classic recipe. Microwave and keep warm as directed.
Beefy Taco: Prepare as Beefy Cheeseburger above except saute 1/2 cup of onion with the beef and season with a packet of taco seasoning. Stir in one (8 ounce) taco sauce with the Rotel. Garnish with taco toppings such as guacamole, chopped onion, black olives, sour cream, green onion and chopped tomato.
Spicy Sausage Rotel Dip: Saute 1/2 cup of chopped onion with 2 fresh jalapeno peppers, cleaned, seeded, ribs removed and chopped in some butter. Add 1 pound of mild or hot Jimmy Dean sausage and brown. Transfer all to 2 pound block of cubed Velveeta and 2 cans of Rotel. Add in additional green chilies if desired. Walmart sells their Great Value brand in a large can - 7 ounces. It's perfect to increase the heat! Microwave and keep warm as directed. Can also substitute a block of cream cheese for half of the Velveeta.
Cheesy Spinach and Bacon Rotel Dip - To 1-pound of the cubed Velveeta, add 1 (10 ounce) package of frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained, 1/2 of an 8 ounce package of cream cheese, cut into chunks, the Ro-Tel, undrained and 4-6 slices of bacon, cooked and crumbled, setting aside half of the bacon for garnish, if desired. Microwave and keep warm as directed. May also substitute 1/2 cup of your favorite salsa for the Rotel.
Chili Cheese Rotel Dip Variation: To the classic recipe, add in two cans of Wolf or Hormel, no bean chili. Microwave and keep warm as directed.

The biggest problem with extolling the virtues of the angels in a community is that, implicit in that celebration, is the acceptance of their opposites.
While today's demons may not have the classic set of horns and a forked tail, they are still just as real.
NBC News has run a series of stories on companies that purchase chemotherapy drugs they know are in short supply. Those companies then attempt to sell those drugs - at tremendous markups - to hospitals.
Now the hospitals - in the midst of treating a childhood cancer, say - have no recourse but to buy the chemo drugs at the inflated prices. The alternative is to sentence the child to death.
Folks, this is not betting on corn futures. This is playing - and profiting - with lives.
Granted, there are tremendous profits. At times, companies made as much as a 650 percent markup by cornering the market on a chemotherapy drug. What a wonderful return for their stockholders.
Except Moms and Dads were wondering if Junior was going to receive his next treatment. Hospitals were left wondering how large a ransom they would have to pay to deliver that next lifesaving treatment.
With all our "health care reform," nobody has addressed these profiteers of death. How sad - it is perfectly legal to corner the market on children's deaths.
We feel sorry for atheists when it comes to cases like this. At least with our values, we know there is a special spot in Hell for these profiteers.

Police: Report of man with rifle near Vt schools was falseThe Associated Press | February 16,2013COLCHESTER Police say a report of a man with a rifle near two schools in Colchester turned out to be a false alarm.
Police received information Thursday afternoon about two students who said they saw a man holding what appeared to be a rifle in the woods near the Mallets Bay School.
Police put that school and Colchester Middle School on lockdown while they searched the area.
They later found a man surveying property near the area. He was wearing clothing similar to what the students described and was carrying surveying tools that may have been mistaken for a firearm. He had no weapons.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER Vermont has reached a deal with the federal government to move forward with a plan...

Minnesota farmers are taking advantage of the dry weather and getting an early start on the fall harvest. Combines started rolling through corn and soybean fields last week, the Pioneer Press reports.
Despite the lack of rain, Minnesota escaped the disastrous drought conditions seen in much of the nation's heartland.
Gene Michelson tells KARE 11 "Some of the ears here are pretty decent, but you can see they're tipped back a little bit, they're not filled completely to the end."
Two percent of the state's corn and soybean acres have already been harvested, according to a weekly report by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
The Pioneer Press notes Minnesota farmers expect to harvest a record 8.25 million acres of corn and 6.9 million acres of soybeans this year.

A Rock Solid (1978), published by the small and innovative Dreadnaught Press, combines prose passages and poems. Lent's first book plays off the various senses of the term rock: geological, musical, and etymological, with emphasis on its derivation from the Old High German rucken: "to cause to move". The term solid relates to the Cubist-influenced geometric structure, an insight prompted by the epigraph from Albert Gleizes and Jean Metzinger's Du Cubisme (1912). Combined, the "rock solid" signposts a pre-postmodern emphasis on fluidity and stasis. The title's indefinite article foregrounds this rock solid as one petite narrative among many; that is, the structure and sense are not a univocal, …
