This site is seriously messed up. Constant crashing, hanging up and totally disconnecting. It is too annoying to go to The Blaze anymore. It just deleted a post I was half way through with for no reason. See ya Blaze. Your future is in serious doubt. The trojan and virus filter I use catches at least a dozen everytime I log on. It isn't about the story anymore, it's about making the money and selling out to all these internet creep companies that leave worms, viruses and cookies on your computer.

At what point will the American citizens rise up and say enough is enough? I know the judge did all that he could do but who are the people that decided for us that this crime deserves a jail sentence and not the death penalty? Those are the ones that need removing from society, just as much as a pedophile, even more so actually. I would guess they are the ones that once wore flowers in their hair but now spend their days and nights thinking of ways to better mankind, like disarming all the citizens, abolishing the constitution, etc, etc. These people are the true criminals among us. Where I from we call them liberals.

People have died in the most horrendous way imaginable at the hands of Al Qaeda. So with that said may I add a personal note? The joke was not funny, in the least. Fourteen years old? You're old enough to know better. Too bad it is so frowned upon, maybe if it weren't these types jokes wouldn't occur, but what this ridiculously immature fourteen year old needs is to be taken out behind the woodpile and a good old fashioned switching from her parents be administered. Nothing has been proven to be more true than the old adage "Spare the rod, spoil the child."
She should also receive 10 lashes from a sapling switch for every time she wrote OMFG.
How would you "the reader" feel about getting on a plane after hearing that the airline had received such a message?
As an after thought I have to wonder how long this immature brat could handle being under the control of an Islamic run country?
And no her free speech rights were not violated. What she did was proudly scream "FIRE" in a crowded theatre, only ten times worse.
She is probably too stupid to understand that she has just ruined her life. She will not be allowed to return to her school. Her friends will abandon her in waves after their mush brains finally realize what a bad thing she did. This will go on her permanent record, the real one, so good luck getting into college. And she and her family can forget about ever flying on an airplane again. What a dunce.

That is exactly what I expect from a liberal. It is one of the tell tale signs that they are losing an argument or, I think in this case, their political clout.
They are very predictable.
1. The argument.
2. When presented with facts they employ diversionary tactics.
3. The smear. They start with name calling and labeling.
4. When presented with more facts contrary to their beliefs they become agitated and start engaging in speech that is often gibberish and garnered from examples 2 and 3 listed above.
5. Overload. Visibly agitated. Name calling and labeling increase in frequency. Again diversionary tactics are employed that are often completely off topic. This is designed to confuse their agitator.
6. Throwing, back to back, questions that have nothing to do with the subject in an attempt to make their agitator confused and appear incompetent as often times the the questions are so obscure that no one could possibly answer.
7. If the agitator persists then the liberal engages in wild gesticulations. Threatening body language, heightened voice level.
8. Tantrum. The liberal becomes so enraged that he/she either walks away or threatens violence.
9. Violence. If pressed further with indisputable facts that prove undoubtedly that the liberal is wrong the liberal may become violent, especially in a large social gathering. At this point they are extremely dangerous and will actually attack each other.
10. To date the condition has no treatment available.

Yes, when one doesn't know what he is doing and considers the act of another as disrespectful when in all actuality it isn't disrespectful at all. It simply means he feels that the country is in dire distress, in which I agree wholeheartedly. Also there is line between free speech and violence. Riding a scooter while displaying a flag indicating distress is free speech to a certain degree I suppose. But someone physically ripping that flag from the hands of another, making threats, etc is crossing the line from free speech to violence. It is also a violation of the law as it could be considered assault. Now did the ripper violate the free speech of the rippee? That depends. If the ripper is just a citizen then no he did not. He only committed assault. But if he is active military then he did violate the free speech rights of the rippee as he, at the time, is an agent of the federal government and therefore, whether ordered to or not, was an acting agent of the federal government. Just like being a cop. Just because the uniform comes off after your shift and you go home doesn't mean you aren't a cop anymore.

When I drive by a house (& I se more and more everyday) that has the flag upside down I don't immediately think that they hate America and are showing disrespect. What I think is that they are informed, realize that the entire nation is in distress and above all love their country. The two "misguided" knuckle draggers need some schooling on what is right and what is wrong. Wrenching a flag from someones hand is not right unless they are about desecrate in some manner. Flying our flag upside down is not desecration, it is out of desperation. I noticed one of the misguided presumed soldiers who "Served his country" allowed the flag to lie on the ground after taking from the hands of another. In all actuality it is soldier boys who actually desecrated the flag by allowing it to lie on the ground. Those two need to stop and figure out what is what and who the real enemy is. Their actions were reminiscent of those in Germany right around 1938-39. Put brown shirts and black ties on them and you'll know what I mean.
April 3, 2014 at 11:24am
A nations flag flown upside down indicates distress. In this instance those that were flying the flag upside down were attempting to convey that the entire nation is in the throes of critical distress. If any nation existing needed it's flag flown upside down I would have to say that the USA ranks right up there in the top 3. The 2 jarheads were doing what most jarheads do, and that is being jarheads. If they had one ounce of intelligence they would realize that flying a US flag upside down is not a statement of disrespect but of deep concern. Now burning a US flag, that can be considered an act of disrespect. Instead of using the energy to rip the flag from the hands of people that are concerned about our nation why don't they channel that energy against the commie buffoons in Washington. It looks like a whole lot of you patriotic TEA party folks, gun owners and preppers are in for a rude shock. All these jarhead's CO has to do is tell these knuckle draggers that "the TEA party, private gun owners and all preppers are the enemy, now go out there and kick some butt" and 99% of them will be gladly bashing in your door and putting a piece of lead through your head with a smile on their face and pride in their heart. Just because someone has "Served their country" doesn't mean that they are good & patriotic. Our armed forces as well as the national guard and police depts. are full of corrupt anti-constitutional opportunistic grade A a-holes. But there are some good guys

How right and how wrong you might be on this one. What is needed here is a witness. Sit the little girl down and ask her who was sitting with her. Then independently go talk to the other kids. In kindergarten, when an adult comes over and specifically singles you out for doing something wrong it's a big deal for the kid. Not something that the kid would forget, nor would any other kid in the general vicinity. It is sad but the kid could have been coached to say this for the attention it would bring the parents. It is sad but an overzealous school worker could have told the kid to stop praying because it angers them to see such a thing.
March 29, 2014 at 6:16pm
It is the only way. The truth must first be presented before the accusation holds any weight or punishment be administered. To do so is a crime in and of itself.
I have no problem nor would I be surprised if the little girl were telling the truth. I have no problem nor would I be surprised if the little girl is lying. This is the sick and twisted world we live in today. We truly are damned if we do and damned if we don't. This is proof of the sophistication and honing to a fine edge the art of deception has become.

Meathead, after a long illness that was incurable, came in one evening while I was watching TV. He laid his head on my knee and as usual I petted him. Content, he laid down at my feet as if to curl up for a nap. 30 seconds passed and I looked down and saw that he had stopped breathing. What a wonderful companion he was.

Thousands upon thousands of us are working on this everyday. But as long as people keep electing public officials who see abortion as "a woman's right" then it will continue. Winning over a politician to oppose abortion is not the answer. Winning over the population to oppose abortion is the key. But good luck with that in a society that glorifies violence, death and mayhem. Society as a whole is less civilized today than those that attended the games in Rome at the great colosseum centuries ago.

Especially if that persons intervention means the difference between a little creatures life being long and happy as opposed to short and miserable. And for you people out their who hold out your arms in disbelief at what you consider absurdity and say things like "What's the big deal? It's just a dog."

Conclusive proof that most of the audience (I am assuming is primarily liberal) are nothing more than a bunch narcissist intellectual wannabe's that actually possess very little in the way of being able to exercise individual critical thinking. Their idea of being intellectuals are nothing more than gathering bits and pieces of what others have told them and then assembling it all together as if it were their idea to begin with. So in essence they cannot come to any type of logical conclusion on their own but must rely on what others tell them. From my perspective, information gathering is crucial but not so much as having a brain that can disseminate between what is B/S and what is the truth. The liberal mind lacks this critical ability as demonstrated by Mr. Maher.

Political correctness (by design) has blinded most people. The problems faced in this country are 90% the fault of the people. Stupid and lazy people do stupid and lazy things things. The stupid repeatedly vote into office total morons to lead them. The lazy are so lazy that they just sit on their big fat asses (Blaze censors, I meant to say they sit on their fat mules) and do nothing but consume whatever is held up to their pig like faces. The problem is so sever that nothing short of a civil war will fix it. Do you honestly think that in 5, 10, 25, 50 or even 100 years the generation after generation of degenerates will come to their senses and become viable, intelligent, productive & law abiding citizens? If you do then you are living in a fairy tale land that exists only between your ears.

You've got that right. I have had a Leatherman tool since they first came out. I saw an add in the back of a magazine. There was no internet then. At first I thought it was probably some cheap junk but at $79.95 (that was a fortune back then) I decided to take a chance. Hands down the best investment I have ever made. I have probably owned a dozen since then. Not that they needed replacing I just wanted to upgrade as the improved versions came out over the years. Yes, I have sent a couple back that something or another broke on it. They have been true to their word and promptly sent a replacement. I now have the Titanium Leatherman Charge. Not a day passes that I do not use it. Even while in the hospital the nurses would ask to us it to separate stubbornly locked IV lines. Miles away from home I once removed the carburetor from an old Ford F100, cleaned out the debris and reassembled it on the side of the road. It got me home. Forget American Express. My Leatherman tool, now that's one thing that I don't leave home without it.
Thanks for the tip!

As part of the Old Schoolhouse Homeschool Crew, I am so happy to be able to review the book, Before Five in a Row (BFIAR) by Jane Claire Lambert. A friend of mine had mentioned this book to me several months ago, but I had not given it much thought until recently. After looking through this book, I plan on incorporating this into our preschool time.
Before Five in a Row is a book that focuses on classical children's literature and is meant to be used with children 2-4 years old. There are 23 stories to read with suggested activities (mini-units) in the areas of Language, Art, Science, Bible, Math and more. The premise behind the book is that children should enjoy the simple pleasures of childhood, and one of the most important pleasures is being able to snuggle up and listen to a good book. The author also emphasis the value of building family memories through the activities surrounding each book. This simple curriculum is meant to be flexible and enjoyable.
How Does it Work?
Begin by choosing a book to read from the selection provided in Before Five in a Row and read it five days in a row. Many of the books are designed to include repetition so that children can build confidence in their pre-reading skills.
Our first book was Jessie Bear, What Will You Wear? which I found at our local library. After reading our story, the recommended activities for this book included:
*A Bible Scripture
*Language Arts (poetry)
*Loving Relationships
*Colors, Patterns and Combinations
*Fine Arts-Drama
*Poetry and Art (Children are encourage to create new verses to the story)
*Can You Find Searches
*Recognizing Patterns
*Games to Play
As you can clearly see, there are so many activities that surround just one story! Like most children, my girls can listen to a book read over and over again. They truly enjoy the sheer pleasure of Mommy reading a book to them as they snuggle in my lap. In this case, both girls enjoyed Jesse Bear, What Will You Wear?
Additional Resources:
- Before Five in a Row (ages 2-4)
-Five in a Row -a four volume series (PreK-3rd)
-Beyond Five in a Row- a three volume series which uses chapter books (PreK-Adult)
-Above and Beyond Five in a Row
What Does it Cost?
Each of the books cost $35 and can be purchased through Rainbow Resources
What Do I think?
I love this book and I am so happy to be able to use it with my girls. I think this is a great opportunity to snuggle up and read some wonderful, timeless books together. What I really appreciate about this book is that there are so many amazing FREE resources on the internet that accompany each story. I cannot wait to incorporate this into our preschool/toddler "school" time!
You can also see what my other TOS Crew Members think of this product and see if it is a good fit for you and your family.
Disclaimer: I received this book free of cost in exchange for an honest review and opinion. The opinions expressed in this post are my own and have not been influenced by the company or the free product provided.

Doodles of Doom in Retrospect
I think we had a great body of entries for the Doodles of Doom contest, but if I run one again, I'm inviting this guy to play. If you follow the links, I think that everyone would admit that he would have been in the running for the top spot.
And, now, bringing it all home: of all the people that came through and viewed those pictures, how many of them thought that those sketches represented something dangerous, threatening, or scary? The young man who was suspended from school for sketching a "laser gun" on his homework doesn't sound any more dangerous or frightening than the people who entered this contest; his doodle no more dangerous than any other piece of paper with scribblings on it.
I leave room to consider that there were extenuating circumstances: did he write something threatening to the teacher? Has he displayed a real weapon in the classroom before? Was there something to make the faculty of the school believe that it wasn't a drawing of a gun, but a threat to a specific individual? Obviously, the view from the news stories is going to be limited, but his mother seemed awfully credible when she said that wasn't the case and that all he had done was draw a laser gun on his homework.
I've known parents who won't let their children play with anything that approximates a gun, though, and I know the animosity some people have towards guns. I can easily imagine that animosity spilling over to an irrational response in a school and blaming that response on some zero tolerance rules related to some high profile school shooting. If the kid had actually brought in a functional weapon, I would understand the response; but I'm guessing that if he had brought in one live round, the response would have been even more over the top. And exactly how dangerous is that .45 ACP round without a weapon to shoot it from?
This kind of fear of guns isn't based on anything rational; it's born of emotions unfettered by thought and propped up with a tremendous amount of ignorance.
Anyway, if you think that this was fun and would like to play again, give me your suggestions and I'll be happy to host them.
Comments & Trackbacks
Hmmm. I'll consider it, but I am trying to stay semi-family-friendly.
I'm friendly, and I have a family. If I promise only to become semi-aroused, will that do?
I will not let me children play with anything that approximates a gun. I will, however, send them off with my friend Matt who is one of the world's highest ranked shooters (of some sort) for a gun safety and training day, shooting soda cans and learing by the way of the watermelon what a gun can do to a head. See, I think that guns are fine, if you need them, but I don't want my kids thinking they're FUN in away way. I'm not saying they can't be, I just don't think they should be kid sorts of fun, that's all.
I liked guns, then again Megatron was a gun and that gives me a major bias
David, I've seen the exact same events with respect to the son of a close friend. Schools are indeed run by people as stupid as it appears.
A photoshop (err, in my case, GIMP) contest, a-la Fark?
Of course, Robert's idea is fine with me.
Have to think of something having alliteration. Paintings of Poignance? Pastiches of Pirates? Pastiche Paintings of Poignant Pirates, eating Pistachios? Inks of Irritation?

The nation's first electric-vehicle vanpools quietly fired up their engines at Seattle Children's Hospital today, as four Nissan LEAF cars were added to the commute options for Children's employees as part of King County's new "Metropool."
These electric vehicles are joining King County Metro Transit's vanpool fleet – the largest public vanpool program in the United States.
"Sharing a ride to work is an environmentally healthy way to commute, and Seattle Children's employees just got greener by signing up for Metro new electric-vehicle vanpools," said King County Executive Dow Constantine. "King County is adding alternative fuel vehicles to its fleet, specifically electric vehicles, to cut fuel consumption and carbon emissions."
Constantine said Metro's purchase of these cars will enhance what is already one of the cleanest and greenest transit systems in North America. Metro's Rideshare Operations has committed to purchasing 20 Nissan LEAF vehicles to pilot electric-vehicle technology in a commuter application called "Metropool." The agency will coordinate the installation of charging stations at major employer sites and multi-modal transportation hubs such as park-and-rides and ferry terminals.
The first phase of the initiative involves Children's employees using four of the program's zero-emission cars. ECOtality's Blink charging stations have been installed on the Children's campus to support the program.
"Everyday 60 percent of Seattle Children's staff take alternative commutes to work, many of them in vanpools. Alternative commutes taken by our employees since September of 2009 have kept almost nine million pounds of carbon emissions out of the air," said Lisa Brandenburg, Chief Administrative Officer at Seattle Children's. "By adding these zero emission all-electric Nissan LEAF Metropool vehicles to our vanpool program, we will be able to reduce Seattle Children's carbon footprint even further."
The LEAF is a 100-percent electric, no gas, no tailpipe, no emissions vehicle with an estimated driving range of 100 miles on a single charge. It seats five people.
"King County's goal is to work with local governments, businesses, and residents to reduce greenhouse gas emissions throughout the region to 80 percent below 2007 levels by 2050," said Metropolitan King County Council Chair Larry Gossett. "Our partnership with Seattle Children's and ECOtality will help us reach our goal even faster."
ECOtality's Blink Network of charging stations provides drivers of electric vehicles with the freedom to travel and charge at Blink commercial locations along the way. They will be able to charge at any Blink station through a variety of options including interoperable RFID cards, smartphone applications, and mobile phone and credit card based payment options.
Consistently ranked as one of the best children's hospitals in the country by U.S. News & World Report, Seattle Children's serves as the pediatric and adolescent academic medical referral center for the largest landmass of any children's hospital in the country (Washington, Alaska, Montana and Idaho). For more than 100 years, Seattle Children's has been delivering superior patient care while advancing new treatments through pediatric research. Seattle Children's serves as the primary teaching, clinical and research site for the Department of Pediatrics at the University of Washington School of Medicine. The hospital works in partnership with Seattle Children's Research Institute and Seattle Children's Hospital Foundation.

While the resubmitted and edited version of Rockstar's Manhunt 2 was issued an M rating in the Americas, the BBFC has once again put its foot down for the 'good' of society. All is not lost though for anyone wanting to get the original iteration of this game, as it seems a completely unedited version will be released in the Netherlands.

with Play.com shipping from Jersey would they be able to distribute Manhunt 2 as they dont fall under english law. also, does anyone know if the US version is PAL compatible?

well i'm glad in ur country they have the decency of taking the game out. From what i hear, manhunt just sounds sick, and it seems like it would promote this type of behavior, maybe only a small percentage of change, but change nonetheless. there is a dif in gta, (killing innocent people, which promotes all kinds of things) and manhunt, (torturing people, not fun.) Whats next for rockstar, hs shooting games?
formerly known as wii-fi
Why are they actually banning it?
Anyways I am sure the uncensored one from the Netherlands will be made available for everyone through int mail. Some dutch shops will focus on the export sale due to the bbfc lame approach....

namespace utx { class Test; // Component (abstract) class TestSuite; // Composite (concrete) class TestCase; // Leaf (abstract) }//utx::Pretty basic CompositePattern stuff. If it wasn't so basic to represent, we'd know that we had selected the wrong pattern. If we further explore this idea of implementing the UTX TestSuite using a CompositePattern we can't help but question why the current CppUnit design didn't provide a Test Visitor to generalize TestSuite traversals. Currently, there are two places where traversals happen -- (1) in the countTestCases member and (2) in the run member. By removing these members and replacing them with visitors, we can raise the cohesion of the system while loosening its coupling. This opens the system up to extension since anyone can create a new visitor without disturbing the existing classes in the framework. Just to drill this point down to those new to decoupling, it is only because we have decoupled iterating over tests from the test classes that we can create new behaviors without modifying those classes. Since there is no idiom for traversal in CppUnit, we would continually have to add new members to the abstract base-class Test, and redefine in TestCase and TestSuite accordingly. Each new behavior would break the existing framework. By using the VisitorPattern, we are in effect saying that any UnitTest behaviors that need to traverse the TestSuite Composite will be defined in the members of a visitor class. Besides the TestCounter visitor and the TestRunner visitor mention above, new visitors may include the following:
; ; test.def -- arguments for various suites or cases ; root -verbose root.debug.LogServer -port 666 -host "ten.ada.net" root.io.FileStream.testRead -in testing.dat ; eof: test.defThis worked hierarchically. For example, the first line adds the "-verbose" option to the TestContext for all tests while the second line is only used for each TestCase in the LogServer TestSuite. The last line is an example of specifying arguments for a single TestCase. In CppUnit, this would have been very difficult to do without performing some surgery or without introducing new classes into the mix, since CppUnit has no place for shared data. In UTX, we only needed to create the class that parses the "test.def" file (really just a map whose keys were the test specifier and whose values were argv-like vectors created from the arguments). Once this class was created, the map was encapsulated into the TestContext class. Since the TestContext already tracks the currently running test, we only need to add a simple accessor that would return an "argv" like vector for the currently executing TestCase. For example:
void FileStreamTest::testRead( const TestContext& ctx ) { TestContext?::ArgVector? argv = ctx.getArgs(): . . . }In keeping with the metaphor of 'argv', the argument at index zero, would return the fully qualified TestCase currently running. Back to the CompositePattern and VisitorPattern One of the drawbacks to the CompositePattern is that you often have to add interface members to the Component class that (while useful to the Composite) may never be used by the Leaf instances. For example, consider the pure virtual countTestCases member of the component class in CppUnit. This is used to calculate the number of TestCases contained (i.e. owned) by a TestSuite (or all cases if called from the root TestSuite). Since TestSuite is a composite, the designer ended up having to implement the countTestCases member in the leaf participant (class TestCase) as well as the composite participant (class TestCase). Now, here comes the smell. Because the leaf doesn't really own any other leaves, this member is simply hard coded to return one. For TestSuite the countTestCases means return all TestCases we contain while for the TestCase the member means how many are we. This is only designed this way to make the implementation of countTestCases in the TestSuite class work recursively. Not because the countTestCases member adds any value to the leaf class TestCase. No one would ever use the public countTestCases member of TestCase on its own. Yow! Another cohesion problem. Redesigning countTestCases as a Visitor As stated early, the VisitorPattern allows us to eliminate implementation-helper methods like countTestCases that must be publicly declared virtual in the component, defined in both the composite and the leaf, but only have real meaning for the composite interface. Using the VisitorPattern for tree traversal alleviates the need for a countTestCases member-function at all!! The component (class Test) doesn't need to declare any other virtual methods other than those that fulfill the VisitorPattern contract -- the accept member. In UTX we count TestCases the same way we do anything else that traverses the composite -- we simply create a counting visitor. A counting visitor is just a TestVisitor that defines a count instance variable and defines the visit( TestCase* ) member to increment a counter:
class CountingVisitor : public TestVisitor { size_t m_nCases; public: void CountingVisitor::visit( TestCase* ) { m_nCases++; } size_t count() { return m_nCases; } };I mean, come on, what seems easier, the way countTestCases is implemented in CppUnit or this CountingVisitor class? If you really must have a countTestCases member, you can simply implement it in the composite class like so:
size_t TestSuite::countTestCases() const { CountingVisitor counter; accept( counter ); return counter.count(); }
class utx::Test { public: typedef TestVisitor? Visitor; // Test is redundant
m_sName( sName ) { } const string& name() const // Name Selector { return m_sName; } virtual bool accept( Visitor& ) = 0; private: string m_sName; };So far, so good. The component is very small and simple and our only virtual member is accept. But wait! There's something strange and unfamiliar about this accept member...what is this boolean result? Well, this is the magic that allows us to short-circuit the traversal of a specific TestSuite or a test run (such as in response to TestContext::shouldStop). But this boolean result for accept ain't the half of it. Implementing the CompositeVisitorPattern UTX uses what I am current calling the CompositeVisitorPattern? (or HierarchicalVisitor, or...err...maybe ConditionalCompositeVisitor?). In addition to the typical Visitor::visit member, the CompositeVisitorPattern? used by UTX has a visitEnter( node ) member and a visitLeave( node ) member.
/** * Visits while maintaining the current hierarchical * context. Also allows the traversal to be short-circuited * at any point during the visitation. */ class utx::TestVisitor? { public: //..Should we enter this node and its children? virtual bool visitEnter( TestSuite* ) { return true; } //..Returns true to continue to next Leaf virtual bool visit( TestCase* ) = 0; //..Returns true to continue to next Composite virtual bool visitLeave( TestSuite* ) { return true; } protected: TestVisitor?() {} TestVisitor?( const TestVisitor?& ) {} };The visitEnter and visitLeave members work as a sort of push composite and pop composite in a way that allows us to go in and out of tree branches. There are a number of WayCool things one can do with this sort of visitor. Some of these exploit its ability to maintain a composite stack, other its conditional abilities, while still other exploit both. Moreover, if our subclass only defines the visit member and always returns true, our visitor will act just like a traditional visitor. It has always smelled bad to me that for something hierarchical (like a file-system) that I would have to implement some traversals using recursive member-functions while others would be implemented using a Visitor. For example, how do you print a tree listing like the following with a traditional visitor?
/** * Maintains a string that when accessed in the "visit" * member, returns to current qualified TestSuite path. */ class utx::TestQualifier? : public utx::TestVisitor? { enum { SEPCHAR = '.'; } public: // Entering a composite: Push its name on the Path virtual bool visitEnter( TestSuite* pSuite ) { m_path.append( pSuite->name() ); m_path += SEPCHAR; // NOTE: Don't forget the separator! return true; } // Leaving a composite: Pop its name from the Path virtual bool visitLeave( TestSuite* pSuite ) { assert( m_path.endsWith( pSuite->name() + SEPCHAR ) ); m_path.resize( m_path.size() - pSuite->name().size() ); return true; } // Provide read-only access to the current qualifier const string& currentPath() const { return m_path; } private: string m_path; // Current qualifier };That's it! Now, this visitor class can be used to implement behavior that requires qualified names! For example, we could extend TestQualifier to print the fully qualified name of every TestCase:
class QualifiedTestPrinter : public TestQualifier? { public: virtual bool visit( TestCase* pTest ) { std::cout << currentPath() + pTest->name() << std::endl; } }This can be used like so:
QualfiedTestPrinter printer; root_suite.accept( printer );As I mentioned earlier, this sort of thing is near impossible with a traditional visitor since we cannot know when to "pop" a name off of the qualified path string -- we can only keep "pushing" onto it. What is even more cool about this sort of visitor is that we can use "visitEnter" to conditionally control whether a composite should visit its components or move on to the next peer composite. This allows us to (a) optimize searches by excluding entire subtrees, (b) respond to "shouldStop", (c) filter TestCase traversals, and so on. Take (a) for example. We can build a visitor that will only search through nodes whose qualified name matches a substring of the search pattern. We'll get back to this a little later, but for now let's continuing fleshing out the CompositePattern for UTX.
class utx::TestSuite : public utx::Test { typedef std::vector< counted_ptr<Test> > Tests; public: TestSuite( const string& name ) : Test( name ) { } // Add a component to the TestSuite composite void add( Test* pTest ) { m_tests.push_back( pTests ); // constructs a counted_ptr } // Implement the Test::accept member virtual bool accept( Test::Visitor& v ) { if ( v.visitEnter( this ) ) { Tests::iterator end = m_tests.end(); for ( Tests::iterator at = m_tests.begin(); at != end; ++at ) if ( !(*at)->accept( v ) ) break; } return v.visitLeave( this ); // continue with siblings? } private: Tests m_tests; // Collection of Suites and/or Cases };The only part that is a little complex is the implementation of "Test::accept". In it, we first call "visitEnter" to determine whether we should enter this node and visit its children (i.e. components that may be leaves or other composites). If visitEnter returns true, we invoke accept on each child some of which may be other composites (i.e. nodes). The result of calling accept always indicates whether we should continue to visit siblings at this tree depth. You can think of the result of accept as a continue at this level flag. If "accept" returns false, we stop visiting components at this level. After visiting all the children of this node, we invoke visitLeave and use its result as the nodes return value. As always, if accept returns false, we do not move on to the next sibling of the current composite, but attempt to move to the parent level.
class utx::TestCase : public utx::Test { public: typedef TestContext? Context; // Test in TestContext? is redundant TestCase( const string& sName ) : Test( sName ) { } virtual bool accept( Visitor& v ) { return v.visit( this ); } virtual void run( const Context& ) = 0; // Subclass Responsibility };Since "class TestCase" is a leaf (as oppose to a composite like TestSuite), its "accept" member merely needs to "visit" itself. The only new behavior introduced by the TestCase class is the pure virtual method "TestCase::run". This is where the action is going to occur. Hopefully you will remember our discussion about decoupling and cohesion that lead to the definition of TestContext. This is a singleton instance owned by the TestDriver that provides a single interface to the shared data context. You can refer back to Why Introducing the TestContext class is such a cool thing... for a reminder. Anyway, each TestMethod is required to include a reference to the TestContext in its signature.
template< class FixtureT > class utx::TestCase_ : public utx::TestCase { typedef void (FixtureT::*TestMethodPtr)( Context& ); public: // Constructor adds the TestMethod pointer TestCase_( const string& sName, TestMethodPtr pTestMethod ) : m_pTestMethod( pTestMethod ), TestCase( sName ) { } // Create a TestFixture instance and invoke TestMethod virtual void run( const Context& ctx ) { ( FixtureT().*m_pTestMethod )( ctx ); } private: TestMethodPtr m_pTestMethod; };Advantages of the TestCase CommandPattern... Because we are again going with recognized patterns instead of rolling our own tightly-coupled solutions, we can actually create other "CommandPattern" classes for UTX. For example, at our shop, tests had previously been written as free-functions that returned void and took no arguments. To keep from having to rewrite a great many tests, I was able to create a simple adaptor that allowed the legacy tests to be added to UTX TestSuites. This adapter is a peer to the TestCase_<Fixture> template. Notice how similar their implementation is, almost like they were both cut from the same pattern ;-). The main difference is that utx::TestCaseFunction? doesn't have to be a template since free-functions do not have a TestFixture:
class utx:TestCaseFunction? : public utx::TestCase { public: TestCaseFunction?( const string& s, void (*pTestFunc)() ) : m_pTestFunc( pTestFunc ), TestCase( s ) { } virtual void run( Context& ) // NOTE: ctx can't be used! { (*m_pTestFunc)(); } private: void (*m_pTestFunc)(); };
utx::TestSuite* StackTestSuite() { static utx::TestSuite suite( "StackTest" ); suite.add( new utx::TestCase_< StackTest >( "testPush", &StackTest::testPush ) ); suite.add( new utx::TestCase_< StackTest >( "testPop", &StackTest::testPop ) ); return &suite; }Most of this is redundant information. So, like the many other TestingFrameworks, we will define some Macros of our own to simplify things.
UTX_BeginTestSuite( "StackTest" ) UTX_AddTestCase( StackTest, testPush ) UTX_AddTestCase( StackTest, testPop ) UTX_EndTestSuite()The following provides you with the basic implementation for these macros.
// Create the TestSuite singleton function #define UTX_BeginTestSuite( tsuite ) \ utx::TestSuite* tsuite##_TestSuite() \ { \ static counted_ptr< utx::TestSuite > s_suite = 0; \ if ( s_suite == 0 ) \ { \ s_suite = new utx::TestSuite( #tsuite ); // Add to the suite object #define UTX_AddTestCase( tfixture, tmethod ) \ s_suite->Add( \ new utx::TestCase_<tfixture>( \ #tmethod, tfixture::tmethod ) ); // Terminate the TestSuite singleton function #define UTX_EndTestSuite( tsuite ) \ } \ return s_suite.get(); \ }We use a function instead of a static member for the TestSuite SingletonPattern in order to cut-down on interdependencies. C++ is nuts when it comes to dependencies so UnitTesting a huge project can really become a drag if you don't isolate the various pieces. You find you end up having to recompile everything each time you add a fixture, or add a TestCase to an existing TestSuite. Furthermore, we use a static TestSuite pointer just so that we have an if-statement to hide our one-time suite initialization in. You can also create a macro for adding TestSuites to other TestSuite objects like so:
// Define a TestSuite accessor #define UTX_TestSuite( tsuite ) \ tsuite##_TestSuite() ''// Add a suite to a suite #define UTX_AddTestSuite( name ) \ s_suite->add( UTX_TestSuite( name ) );This allows you to do the following:
UTX_BeginTestSuite( collection ) // Suite for collection classes UTX_AddTestSuite( StackTest ) UTX_EndTestSuite()Now the StackTest suite we just created is contained in another suite named "collection". There are better ways to do this, but this works, its quick, and it cuts down on header file interdependencies.
class utx::TestRunner : public utx::TestQualifier? { public: TestRunner( Test::Context& ctx ) : m_ctx( ctx ) { } void specify( const string& sQualifiedName ) { m_tests.push_back( sQualifiedName ); } bool visitEnter( TestSuite* pSuite ) { TestQualifier::visitEnter( pSuite ); return !m_ctx.ShouldStop?(); } bool visit( TestCase* pTest ) { if ( m_tests.include( currentPath() + pTest->name() ) ) perform( pTest ); return m_ctx.shouldStop(); } bool visitLeave( TestSuite* pSuite ) { TestQualifier::visitLeave( pSuite ); return !m_ctx.shouldStop(); } protected: void perform( TestCase* pTest ) { TestRecord& rec = m_db.createRecord( currentPath() + pTest->name() ); try { record.start(); pTest->run( m_ctx ); record.stop(); } catch ( const XTestFailure& e ) { record.log( e ); } catch ( const XTestError& e ) { record.log( e ); } catch ( const std::exception& e ) { record.log( e ); } catch ( ... ) { record.log( "Unknown" ); } if ( m_ctx.isVerbose() ) m_ctx.traceOut() << record << std::endl; } private: TestReport m_db; // Results TestContext& m_ctx; // The Global Testing Context std::vector_<string> m_tests; // Specified Tests };There are all kinds of visitors you can write with a CompositeVisitor like the one I introduced here. Because of "visitEnter" and "visitLeave", it becomes very easy to do things like maintain stacks and indent levels. We can optimize this class quite a bit by returning false from "TestRunner::visitEnter" when "pSuite->name()" is not a part of any name in the "m_tests". We can also add the ability to specify wildcards or entire suites. In the following snippet, specifying "root" will cause all tests contained in the root TestSuite "root" to run while specifying "root.StackTest" will run all cases in the suite "StackTest":
class utx::TestRunner : public utx::TestQualifier? { private: TestSuite* m_pRunAll; public: . . . bool visitEnter( TestSuite* pSuite ) { TestQualifier::visitEnter( pSuite ); if ( !m_pRunAll && m_tests.hasExactMatch( currentPath() ) ) m_pRunall = pSuite; return m_ctx.shouldStop(); } bool visit( TestCase* pTest ) { if ( m_pRunAll || m_tests.includes( pTest->name() ) ) perform( pTest ); return m_ctx.shouldStop(); } bool visitLeave( TestSuite* pSuite ) { TestQualifier::visitLeave( pSuite ); if ( m_pRunAll == pSuite ) m_pRunAll = 0; return m_ctx.shouldStop(); } . . . };You'll also notice that unlike CppUnit I have decided to give each TestCase its own record object instead of sharing a single object between the cases of a suite. This gives us a little more control over stuff like logging and calculating the duration of each test. Furthermore, this allows me to output the TestReport? object CSV and input that into a database for regression analysis. Yeesh, I'm trying to go but I cannot resist the urge to add a Visitor for "pretty-printing".
class utx::TestLister? : public utx::TestQualifier? { public: virtual bool visitEnter( TestSuite* pSuite ) { TestQualifier::visitEnter( pSuite ); insertLine( pSuite->name() ); insertLine( "(" ); indent(1); return true; } virtual bool visitLeave( TestSuite* pTest ) { TestQualifier::visitLeave( pSuite ); indent(-1); insertLine( ")" ); return true; } virtual bool visit( TestCase* pTest ) { insertLine( pTest->name() ); return m_sPath; } protected: void insertLine( const string& s ) { size_t N = m_nLevel * TABSIZE; while ( N-- ) std::cout.put( ' ' ); std::cout << s << std::endl; } void indent( int N ) { m_nLevel += N; } private: int m_nLevel; enum { TABSIZE = 3 }; };Okay, okay, enough fun and my fingers hurt. This is way too much to type "stream of consciousness style" but, hopefully, this should be enough information for most of you to complete this adaptation of SUnit. While this is a lot of text, very little of it is actually code. In fact, this is a very small library. Because user-defined tests do not need to inherit from any particular class, the only dependency clients have is on TestContext?, which is a reference, and the macro definition language. I hope these ideas are seen as adding to CppUnit rather than taking away. If I get some time to create an implementation that isn't connected to our internal classes and package strategy, I will post it. If anyone incorporates these ideas into CppUnit or creates a new UTX derivative, please keep me posted. Currently I have UTX running on Windows NT, Linux/Redhat, AIX, HPUX, IRIX, Solaris/Intel, and Solaris/SPARC. If there is enough interest, I will go over the application class design that allows you to create multiple Test Stations (see TestDriver). --RobertDiFalco See also: CppUnit, EnhancingCppUnit, HierarchicalVisitorPattern
-- DanMullerHi Robert, Thanks for designing (and publishing) CppUtx -- it's an excellent design. I've just finished implementing the full set of functionality you described on Wiki. I thought you might be interested in a few points I learned on the way. (Unfortunately I am not allowed to distribute the code.) - The big new feature I added was the optional systematic execution of all exception pathways in each test, based on Ben Stanley's excellent article in the new (April 2001) C++ User's Journal. Ben also provided a simple diagnostic memory manager to enable the forced failure of operator new(), and to detect memory leaks, which saved me from writing my own (which was my next job). You can find the article and code here: http://www.cuj.com/documents/s=8027/cuj0104stanley/ Adding/adapting this small amount of (quite tricky) code adds a qualitative difference to the test system; it amazing to watch it execute one test 40+ times, and find occasional resource leaks. I got it working last night, and it immediately found a lot of hidden problems with our existing tests/code. Until now we have been writing manual tests to try to execute error paths, but having it automated is so much easier, and _massively_ more thorough. In fact it is so thorough it seems to be finding compiler bugs in exception code - which Ben noticed too. I found it useful to allow test authors to specify whether a testcase should have its exceptions exercised, when they add it to a test suite. (A flag is stored in the test command object for this.) It is also useful to provide for the enabling/disabling of this via the test-arguments feature (described below), which allows users to apply the technique experimentally to existing tests without rebuilding. Also, it is important to allow users to force the execution of any one specific exception path, as they need to be able to go straight to it for debugging, without having to step through 30 "pass" paths first. Note: to keep the TestReport? manageable, I generate one TestRecord? for each failed path, or one record if ALL paths pass. i.e. I don't generate a pass for every successful execution path - there are a lot of them. If the 'normal' path (no exceptions forced) passes but one of the exception paths fails then I record a "weak pass", because that is very useful information. Also, because of the compiler bugs I mentioned above, I may need to add an option to specify/avoid any "bugged exception paths". - The most convenient, powerful tool I've found for writing exception-safe, exception-correct code is Andrei Alexandrescu and Petru Marginean's ScopeGuard? library. This also helps massively to write the tests themselves in an exception-correct (no resource leaks) manner, which is vital for using the "run all exception paths" system described above. The article and code are here: http://www.cuj.com/experts/1812/alexandr.htm (Note: I found a minor bug in the Janitor variant, which Andrei and Petru confirmed -- it needs try/catch around its own use of new, and to call the user-supplied function it fails (and then re-throw to show the failure). The systematic exception-testing system just verified this bug, and also verified my fix!) - I implemented the hierarchical argument-passing scheme you suggested -- it's great. However, the ability to add arguments 'higher up' in the hierarchy makes the position (number) of any given argument on each test's "command line" quite unstable, and this can easily break tests. I fixed this by switching to keyword "name=value" arguments. These are easily implemented using a std::map<>, and are accessed via TestContext?::GetCurrTestArgs?(). (The TestRunnerVisitor? must tell the TestContext? which test is currently being executed.) - I added a set of UTX_ExpectEquals() macros and templates. I guess you left these out because they are pretty obvious. However, I did find Yonat Sharon's stringize() template to be very useful in generating meaningful messages: http://ootips.org/yonat/4dev/stringizer.h.
Here is a snippet: #define UTX_ExpectEquals(expr, expected) utx::internal_ExpectEquals(expr, expected, #expr, __FILE__, __LINE__) namespace utx { template<typename T1, typename T2> void internal_ExpectEquals(T1 value, T2 expected, const char * szExpr, const char * szFilename, unsigned uLine ) { if ( value != expected ) //lint !e731 testing "bool != bool" { throw utx::C_UTX_TestFailedException( "Expected '" + stringize(expected) + "' but got '" + stringize(value) + "' from '" + szExpr + "' at line " + stringize(uLine) + ", file: " + szFilename ); } }- I had some problems with various counted_ptr<> implementations with VC++ 6.0 (eventually AlanGriffiths excellent library worked a treat: http://www.octopull.demon.co.uk/arglib/) However, Andrei Alexandrescu's Loki library looks even better (but I haven't tried it yet) : http://cseng.aw.com/book/0,,0201704315,00.html - I just checked the Wiki page and found your new page on TestDrivers?. I shared some of these concerns. I've already refactored TestRunner, TestReport? and TestContext? considerably, but I am still far from sure that TestContext? should provide the shouldStop() and LogOStreamRef() interfaces. However, it does work fine as it is. Anyway, thanks _very_ much for a great design -- it is so powerful and convenient; my team love it. -- Chris Newcombe, email@example.com
-- DanMuller
utx::RootTestSuite?& suite = driver.rootSuite(); suite.begin("hop"); suite.add("TestBip?"); suite.add("TestBof?"); suite.end(); suite.begin("withfailure"); suite.add("Test1"); suite.add("Test2"); suite.add("Test3"); suite.end(); suite.begin("withsuccess"); suite.add("TestSuccessed1"); suite.add("TestSuccessed2"); suite.add("TestSuccessed3"); suite.end();This example generates the following test cases:
suiteroot.hop.TestBip? suiteroot.hop.TestBof? suiteroot.withfailure.Test1 suiteroot.withfailure.Test2 suiteroot.withfailure.Test3 suiteroot.withsuccess.TestSuccessed1 suiteroot.withsuccess.TestSuccessed2 suiteroot.withsuccess.TestSuccessed3

virtual void run( const Context& ctx ) { FixtureT fixture; TestFixture::setup( &fixture ); ( fixture.*m_pTestMethod )( ctx ); TestFixture::teardown( &fixture ); }If the class is subclass of TestFixture then its setup/teardown will be called. Otherwise it won't.

Two popular Word Plays many alumni use are the "What if you" question and the "Imagine" statement. These are two very powerful Grabbers that engage your prospect and ask them to place themselves inside the message you are delivering.
"Imagine" is like Martin Luther King's "I have a dream" statement. Essentially, he asks the audience to "Imagine a world where…" He puts an alternate reality into place. Although he uses "I" (violating "you" phrasing), in this context it works well because I, the listener, is invited to join his dream. He is able to transfer ownership to the audience easily because they want to go; they want to live this dream. Your imagination takes you into his dream and you become part of his story (the power of a story). The audience takes a trip without leaving the room.
"What if you" questions are also very powerful, especially when used in sales. "What if you" moves your audience to where you want them to go without them resisting going there in the first place. They can't control it – they just go. "What if you" is very kinetic. It forces the listener to answer a question. The very act of what if you did x or y forces the listener to imagine the result and to consider the consequences. These consequences are many times what make the listener take action – action towards your solution. There is power in a question. It forces you to prepare an answer, whether you verbalize it or not.
Play with using "What if you" and "Imagine" at your next sales call. Which do you prefer?

Rebooting Cybertort Law
Michael L. Rustad
Suffolk University Law School
Thomas H. Koenig
Northeastern University
Washington Law Review, Vol. 80, p. 335, 2005
Cyberspace provides an ideal legal environment for tortfeasors and online criminals because Internet Service Providers (ISPs) have no duty to mitigate harms caused by ongoing torts, crimes, and infringing acts. Courts have stretched Congress's express language in Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act from the narrow purpose of immunizing ISPs as publishers to the expanded purpose of shielding them from all tort liability. This Article proposes imposing a limited duty of crae on ISPs to remove or block ongoing tortious activities on their srvices when they have been given actual notice. This reform will harmonize American ISP liability law with the European union's Electronic Commerce Directive, which imposes an affirmative duty on ISPs to take down objectionable materials. It also will unify U.S. law by creating procedures consistent with the takedown policy mandated by the Digital Copyright Act.

You can make them as directed, but they are also good if you add nuts or chocolate chips or what ever you like in your cookies. I've made them with chocolate chips or just hazelnuts and both were delicious. My children love them, as well. They make the house smell wonderful when ever I bake them!

Rep. Clyde Announces Over $635,000 for Local Public & Private Projects
State Funds Awarded to KSU Liquid Crystal Institute & Davey Resource Group
James Crosby | 8/20/2013, 3:06 p.m.
COLUMBUS- State Rep. Kathleen Clyde (D-Kent) announced today that the state has released over $635,000 to Kent State and Davey Resource Group in Kent.
$459,000 was awarded to Kent State's Liquid Crystal Institute to purchase equipment that will allow the university to expand into biomedical liquid crystal research. In 2013, Kent State announced the creation of a new bioengineering research program that will collaborate with the Liquid Crystal Institute and will speed the development of biomedical applications for liquid crystals and other advanced materials.
"The Liquid Crystal Institute's expansion into bioengineering demonstrates Kent State's leadership among Ohio's research universities and ensures further economic development for Ohio in the growing biomedical field," Rep. Clyde said.
Additionally, $176,710 was awarded to the Davey Resource Group in Kent to conduct an in-depth analysis of the Ohio Department of Transportation's (ODOT) current roadside vegetation practices and provide recommendations to improve safety, cost effectiveness, environmental compliance, and efficiency. Roadside vegetation management contributes to driver safety, controls erosion, and provides a more aesthetically appealing roadside. Davey Resource Group, established in 1992, is The Davey Tree Expert Company's natural resources and utility consulting division.
"Davey's collaboration with ODOT will make an important impact on the safety, efficiency and environmental sustainability of roadways throughout the entire state of Ohio," Rep. Clyde said. "They should be commended for their innovation and important collaboration with our state."

Sugar follows the story of Miguel Santos, a.k.a. Sugar, a Dominican pitcher from San Pedro De Macorís, struggling to make it to the big leagues and pull himself and his family out of poverty. Playing professionally at a baseball academy in the Dominican Republic, Miguel finally gets his break at age 19 when he advances to the United States' minor league system. Miguel travels from his tight knit community in the Dominican Republic to a small town in Iowa where he and a couple other Latin American teammates are the only Spanish-speaking people in the vicinity. As Miguel struggles with the new language and culture, despite the welcoming efforts of his host family, he is faced with an isolation he never before experienced. When his play on the mound falters, he begins examining more closely the world around him and his place within it, and ultimately questions the single-mindedness of his life's ambition. Blending the genres of sports drama, immigrant journey, and coming-of-age story, Sugar is a unique film about self-discovery.
Opens in New York and Los Angeles on April 3.

Alias #15: Collateral Damageby Pierce Askegren J. J. Abrams
What begins as a routine assignment -- infiltrate a public building and retrieve monitoring equipment set up by APO -- goes horribly wrong. With the mission suddenly compromised, the true question becomes, Who's monitoring whom and why? Resourceful Sydney manages to complete the objective, but a split-second miscalculation during her escape endangers a civilian caught in the cross-fire. When haunting details of the victim emerge and the lead suspect is murdered, Sydney's carefully compartmentalized life threatens to unravel. Has she always made the right choices, knowing the inherent danger posed to those around her? Vaughn and Jack are understandably concerned. For a field agent, even the tiniest loss of focus can prove deadly....
Buffy the Vampire Slayer 2by Diana G. Gallagher Christopher Golden Nancy Holder Pierce Askegren
This second volume of our Buffy omnibus series collects many of the best Buffy comics to see print. As we follow the newly-chosen slayer from Los Angeles to Sunnydale and through her parents' divorce - with Dawn in tow - the souled vampire Angel makes his first appearance and the not-so-souled Spike and Drusilla cleave a bloody path towards the West Coast. This collection includes the critically acclaimed graphic novel Ring of Fire and the miniseries A Stake to the Heart, and reflects the Season One to Season Three timeline of the cult-hit TV series. A fitting companion to Joss Whedon's comics-based relaunch of the show.

Mickey Mantle and Joe DiMaggio Signed Photo Collection From DiMaggio's Personal Collection (3)
Starting Bid - $300.00, Sold For - $822.50
Significant collection of three Joe DiMaggio and/or Mickey Mantle photos, two of which originate directly from DiMaggio's estate. 1) 20 x 16-inch color photo of DiMaggio, Mickey Mantle, Willie Mays, and Duke Snider posing together at Shea Stadium during an Old Timers' Day event (circa 1980). Signed by both DiMaggio and Mantle in blue Sharpie (grading "10"). This photo originates directly from DiMaggio's estate and is accompanied by a letter of provenance signed by his two granddaughters. Legend has it that DiMaggio was not particularly fond of Mantle, perhaps in part due to jealousy as Mantle replaced DiMaggio not just in the Yankees lineup, but in the hearts of many Yankees fans. This is one of the few Mantle signed pieces found in DiMaggio's personal collection at the time of this passing. Near Mint condition. Matted and framed to total dimensions of 29 x 24.5 inches. 2) 20 x 16-inch color photo (printed on board) of DiMaggio and Mantle posing together at an Old Timers' Day event (circa 1970s). Not signed. The photo captures both players in extreme close-up, making for a rare and definitive image of the two legendary Hall of Famers together. This photo originates directly from DiMaggio's estate and is accompanied by a letter of provenance signed by his two granddaughters. Ex-Mt. Framed to total dimensions of 23.5 x 19.5 inches. 3) 8 x 10-inch color photo picturing Mantle in uniform, standing in front of the batting cage. Signed in blue Sharpie (grading "10") on the front. Nr/Mt. Matted and framed to total dimensions of 14.25 x 16.5 inches. LOA from James Spence/JSA. Total: 3 photos (2 signed). Reserve $300. Estimate $500/$1,000. SOLD FOR $822.50

The American dream is a sham!
Peruse today's Edenfalls Cost of Living Index and you will see that everything has pretty much gone haywire.
The deeper we get into this season, the more layers of duplicity that accumulate.
The ever more estranged Malloy-Riches must resort to painful, Möbius-strip-like compromises!
The rewards are there for the taking, but as with gas and groceries, the prices they must pay just keep going up.
Those Talking Heads chestnuts about suburban alienation would be apt accompaniment for The Riches, the FX series about a grifter family who assume the beautiful house of dead yuppies.

Honoring the memory of Zachary Schrah, the Living for Zachary Foundation has planned its annual Heartbeats Gala for Feb. 8 at the Hilton Anatole.
A Plano East football player who exhibited no symptoms, Schrah was just 16 years old when he collapsed and died during practice on April 2, 2009.
Trying to cope with his death, Zac's mother, Karen Schrah, and others researched sudden cardiac arrest and were shocked to learn that, according to the American Heart Association, this silent killer takes the lives of 10,000 student athletes in this country every year. Many could have been helped by medical testing or saved by an Automated External Defibrillator. They learned that simple cardiac testing could detect the potential for SCA with 99 percent accuracy but is not the current standard of care unless there are symptoms, and in most cases, there are none.
They were called to action in June 2009 to raise awareness of undiagnosed heart issues in teens Living for Zachary now hosts an annual Education Forum. This year, the forum is scheduled for Feb. 7 at The Heart Hospital Baylor Plano. The 5 to 9 p.m. event offers free health screenings for those 12 to 22 years old, including echocardiograms, electrocardiograms, blood pressure checks, medical advice and AED and CPR training.
Visit living4zachary.org to register for heart screenings and to buy tickets and sponsorships for the black tie gala.
Chilly Chili
Burton Gilliam, known for playing Lyle in Blazing Saddles, will be the celebrity judge at the first Chilly Chili Cook-Off benefiting the Boys and Girls Clubs of Collin County Saturday at the Haggard Party Barn. Gilliam will be joined at the judging table by Plano Police Chief Greg Rushin and Plano Fire Chief Brian Crawford, patriarchs of the Plano Police and Firefighters associations, which are sponsoring the event.
The 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. cook-off will offer live entertainment, auctions, bounce houses and games, food and drink and, of course, chili. Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for children ages 5 and over. All are invited to enter the chili competition for $25 per team.
Also on the Boys and Girls calendar, the third annual Charity Poker Tournament at Gleneagles Country Club is Feb. 27, and an April 17 car raffle with a choice of four vehicles from Tomes Auto Group will be $50 a ticket. Visit bgccc.org for details and tickets.

It was not until I slid into my fifth decade and began to reevaluate the personal and professional choices I had made in my life that I realized changes were in order. I did not divorce my husband, I did not pierce my navel, I did not augment the size or shape of my breasts, nor did I tuck my tummy. I decided to volunteer at one of the organizations around my neighborhood that sparked my interest both in the work that I might perform as well as their mission. Recognizing the fact that I may not be content or fulfilled by the first or second institution I would try, the process continued for a couple of years before I found a sure fit.
When the Stone Barns Center opened in Pocantico Hills in May, it was a culmination of years of coordination and planning behind the scenes but also, of much talk and speculation in the neighborhood. For me, it would become the answer to my need to feel productive within my community, as well as the personal fulfillment of a long held dream to work a farm. The fact that it is an organization bent on teaching the basics of farming to a population who are so rarely exposed to the actual process, and that it does it organically, ethically, and with a sense of the local community is fertilizer on the compost, so to speak.
When I inquired about the possibility of helping out, the only request that I made was that I would not be stuffing envelopes but would be out in the field or in the greenhouse "getting my hands dirty". The staff was very happy to accommodate my wishes and by the beginning of June I was already knee deep in sunflower seedlings, amaranth weeds and harvesting radicchio.
Participating within the beauty of the Normanesque architecture of the barns was a perk I found hard to resist. Having practiced as a licensed architect for a number of years before having my children and then as an exhibit designer afterwards, roaming among the farm buildings, the dooryard garden, the upper field where the tomatoes and artichokes and kolrabi soak up all the sunlight the day has to offer, I soon knew that I had found the place where my search would end. I now have the privilege to contribute to the success of the Stone Barn project, as small as my contribution is - a mere six hours per week - but as important for me, I have found the situation where the benefits are mutual. Sure, I spend a good three hours, two times per week, hunched over rows of parsley or celery, weeding until I can barely stand, humbling myself before my younger coworkers as I rub my hamstrings back into shape, but my efforts are appreciated, I have no doubt. What makes it all worthwhile is that the energy I invest in them is doubly returned by the satisfaction I glean from being there, working with the soil, visiting the pigs in the grove on the hill, and mostly, getting to know the incredibly dedicated people who work there and who have made the entire environment there so a vibrant and soulful.
I am a volunteer there but I don't feel like a volunteer. I feel like a part of a community of like-minded people, older and younger, paid and unpaid, experienced and not, from near and far, who have grouped together to make a mission come to life. It took quite a few months for me to find that place - circumstances in which I would be so thoroughly compensated both spiritually and physically. For me, it was a farm, not three miles from my house. I feel very fortunate in the convenience of it all; however, the point is that I traveled a much longer road to find the place that has come to suit me so well. And as selfish as it may sound to have set such a priority on my own satisfaction, I think that it is the factor in this quest that will sustain my dedication and enthusiasm.
For now, until school begins again, my eleven-year-old son joins me on Tuesdays and Fridays. I work with "the weeds", as he says, and he works with the animals. We have made it a routine to work hard for the morning and then reward ourselves with a lunch at Bella's, the local luncheonette. Does my son think about the fact that he is working for no pay? Not at all. In fact, at eleven he would never expect to be paid. He is being immersed in a philosophy that encourages principle over profit and the great satisfaction one can feel when one is physically productive. The high one can feel in "helping out", the pure goodness of the act - a feeling akin to donating blood or working at a soup kitchen Christmas morning - is a bonus.
In a society that places so much importance and value on one's ability to make money, he is seeing the profit of working the land with his hands and of working in a cooperative effort to achieve a worthy goal.
When I look back on my previous perceptions, I would never have thought to have anything in common with the Lily Pulitzer type women who typified the "volunteer" for me as I was growing up. I now chastise my snobbish bias. Whether it is the Junior League or the local library, a presidential campaign or the neighborhood farm, volunteering can be a means to contribute to a meritorious cause while reaping a harvest of personal benefits in the process.

2. At the top right side of the website, you'll see a photo that says "THE OPEN" in white and "REGISTER HERE" in blue. Go ahead and click there.
3. If you signed up for the 2012 or 2013 Crossfit Open, you already have a login. So there is no need to create one. Just go ahead and sign in with that information. If this is your first time, go ahead and create a login.
4. Once you login, they will ask you some location information and ask for payment; the cost for the Open is $20.
5. You are now done and ready to challenge yourself in the 2014 Crossfit Open 🙂
Are we allowed to scale these workouts?
I know that many of you are hesitant about signing up because you are worried that you are not strong enough or fast enough to perform these workouts. Have no fear! You can attempt it RX, go for a PR or do it scaled – the option is yours.
When am I doing the workout?
This is the thing – you'll be doing the workouts whether you register or not! We are planning on incorporating each weekly Open workout into our normal Friday group classes. That way, you can perform these workouts with your normal group of buddies and just have a blast with it. If you are registered, but can not do it Friday, just coordinate with a coach for another time.
What about judges? Do I need to take the judges course?
Any athlete who hopes to compete at Regionals will need a registered judge who has passed Crossfit's Judges Course. If you do not plan to compete at regionals it is not mandatory to take the course, but would be a great help in judging others.
And now for a little inspiration…
