Auction giant eBay is rolling out a new system to prevent charity event tickets from being used for unfair profiteering.The company says it will begin a scheme allowing any charity organisation in Britain to recoup a slice of profit from resold tickets – handing a percentage of the money back to the charity concerned, rather than seeing it fill the pockets of touts.The idea is to prevent those who get hold of tickets to charity events from selling them for vastly inflated prices on the web without giving back to charity. That practice, widely criticised by event organisers, has become commonplace as increasing numbers seek to profit from selling access to exclusive, star-studded charity events.In the past eBay has come in for criticism for allowing such deals to take place, most notably in the run-up to events such as 2005's Live 8 concert, where free tickets to the London gig featuring Madonna and Pink Floyd were trading hands online for as much as £500 each. Those sales were eventually banned after Sir Bob Geldof labelled them "sick profiteering".The new scheme lets people resell similar tickets, but forces them to return at least 20% of the auction price back to the original organisation - and deletes listings by sellers who do not donate. In recent weeks the company has started manually removing all such listings from its website, but has promised that its system will begin automatically deleting offending adverts "within a few weeks".The new scheme will also mean any event where more than 50% of profits go to charity can be registered in order to ensure that cash from ticket reselling goes to the appropriate parties.

Don't give up the sideburns!
Things are bound to get a little hairy at the Brewerie at Union Station on Wednesday, but it's entirely by design.
That's the day the finalists of the Perry 200 Perry Burns contest will appear before a group of judges who will decide who sports the sideburns most like those of Oliver Hazard Perry, the War of 1812 hero and the centerpiece of the yearlong Perry 200 celebration of the Battle of Lake Erie bicentennial.
This year's contest traces its origins to a facial hair contest held as part of the Battle of Lake Erie sesquicentennial.
"In 1963, they had a similar contest, except it was a beard-growing contest. We wanted to do something like that," said Dan Mucci, Perry 200 coordinator. "It's a fun event, a unique event."
Kevin Kantz, who's been cultivating a pair of Perry burns since July, remembers that contest and said the camaraderie surrounding it inspired him to enter this year's event.
"I was 11 years old, my dad was a history teacher at Academy High School and we went to the pageant down at (Veterans Stadium)," said Kantz, 61. "What I remember was all these men growing beards -- guys with flattops and crew cuts, the last guys you'd expect to grow beards in the middle of summer."
Kantz, a retired teacher and self-professed fan of "anything to do with old Erie," also wears the whiskers as a tribute to Perry and another Erie hero with bushy burns, Col. Strong Vincent.
For Steve Frezza, a volunteer with the Maritime Museum and the U.S. Brig Niagara, participation in the contest was a no-brainer.
"I've been wearing sideburns for 10 years," said Frezza, 50, adding that he's a longtime War of 1812 and Civil War re-enactor.
When the Niagara was used in a PBS War of 1812 documentary, Frezza appeared on board as a notable character. "They nabbed me to play Oliver Hazard Perry," he said.
As touchstones of sideburns excellence change over time, Frezza said, people's responses to his facial hair often key him in to what generation they hail from. "People see them and say 'Elvis!' or 'Wolverine!'" he said, referencing Hugh Jackman's mutton-chopped character in the "X-Men" films.
France often leads the way when it comes to fashion, and facial hair styles during the War of 1812 had their roots in the French Revolution and Napoleon at the end of the 18th century, according to Linda Bolla, Maritime Museum education programs coordinator.
"In the early 1800s, fashion had become less stiff," said Bolla, 57. "Powdered wigs are out and what you see is a more natural look. Men's hair, overall, had a more natural cut."
Portraits from the time period give an idea of the look, Bolla said, with hair looking curly and windblown from the back. "Sideburns are not overly long, as would happen later," she said. "They don't really extend further than the curve of the jaw on the face."
Another key point is "absolutely no mustaches. Mustaches are out," Bolla said.
That presents a challenge to Kantz, who's had a mustache "every day of my life for the last 43 years," though he plans to shave it off before the finals on Wednesday.
Military regulations today place strict restrictions on facial hair, but Bolla said there were probably few restrictions on Perry when he crafted his look. "The officers were gentlemen and didn't need regulations to know how to look appropriate," she said.
Both Kantz and Frezza said they've enjoyed seeing photos of the Perry Burns contestants online -- see the 15 participants at GoErie.com -- but both said they wish more people had entered.
It's probably too late for newcomers to start work on a pair of Perry burns, but everyone can appreciate the Battle of Lake Erie bicentennial celebration and the excitement simmering around town for Erie and Perry.
The contest fits in nicely with that theme.
"It's something any man can do and have fun with it," Bolla said. "It doesn't cost anything to do. It's just getting in the spirit and having fun with it."

Just For Men
The Just for Men brand has long specialized in helping guys achieve whatever naturalistic look they desire with minimal fuss and muss. The idea is to give men the tools required to take control of the aging effects upon their mop's palette. It's not about radically shifting the hue; it's about preserving your natural hair color and, if so desired, masking or managing the turnover to gray or white strands.
That turnover, by the way, is an entirely normal aspect of aging. The technical name is achromotrichia, and the technical process is the cessation of an individual follicle's production of the pigment melanin; hair strands thenceforth growing from that follicle will be devoid of pigment and thus appear gray or white.
Here at drugstore.com, you can peruse a variety of Just for Men hair products. There's one for every color, type, and aim. The brand's approach is a fine-tuned one: You can rest assured the formulation is only targeting gray hairs, so the overall effect is subtle and acute. There are the classic shampoo-in mixtures as well as cutting-edge premixed and timed applications. Those with facial hair can investigate the coloring brushes available for achieving the same effect on beards and moustaches. It's easy to figure out which shade to use; there's a fine gradation of options, so you can closely match the color treatment with your particular hue.
Just for Men products are remarkably easy and straightforward to use, and because they permanently color a given hair shaft, you need reapply only as the gray presence returns. (The brand itself recommends as a general rubric a four-week reapplication schedule.)
The simple, occasional applications of Just for Men hair-coloring products don't demand much adjustment within your broader hair-care regimen. Just remember to use a shampoo specially formulated for a color-treated mane. Also, it's important to test for skin allergies (conduct the "patch test" on the inside of your elbow) before a full Just for Men application—every time.
With Just for Men on your side, you can firmly take the wheel when it comes to the inevitable achromotrichia process. The changeover to frosty white or grizzled gray needn't be unstoppable or unmanaged: Retain the richness of your natural color or ease into the salt-and-pepper look on your own timetable and under your own conditions.
Stop by drugstore.com for product descriptions, customer reviews, and other pertinent details on the Just for Men brand. We've got what you need to face the gray head on.

Nelson Events and IACF have announced that they will start charging reduced rate VAT on stands at their fairs from October 1. In a letter to ATG this week, they explain why they have been forced into this move, albeit reluctantly.
The news follows ATG's previous reports regarding a new interpretation of VAT rules by HMRC. HRMC have declared that, from last November, the supply of space at fairs (antiques & collectors, craft, vintage, art deco etc) should be subject to VAT, effectively putting the cost of the stallholders pitch up by 20%.
The letter sates that: "Following a meeting with both legal counsel and our VAT advisors, both Nelson Events and IACF, believe that we have a strong case to defend. We are in the process of combining our efforts to hold a single tribunal and obtain a ruling on the validity of the new VAT rules. However, this process will probably take 12 months before we get a final judgment."
Although they have to account for VAT on pitch sales from last November, they say it would be unfair to ask stallholders to pay VAT charges on past events and will therefore pay this fee on their behalf.
Shared Cost
The letter continues: "However, after much discussion, debate and professional advice, both Nelson Events and IACF have taken the decision to start accounting for VAT from October 1, 2013, which means that, reluctantly, we do have to pass on an increase to dealers. We have decided to share some of this extra cost, which means we are limiting the increase to just 12.5% and not the full 20%.
"In the event that we win our fight, every effort will be made to credit anything paid by way of this additional charge back to our customers.
The increase will apply to all new stallholder bookings taken on or after October 1 and also to any existing bookings unpaid at close of business on September 30. Public and trade entry prices will not ne affected, as VAT is already charged.
The letter also calls on organisers, stallholders and visitors to work together to put pressure on HMRC and the Government to halt their plans to implement this new approach to VAT. They have set up a petition website, www.saveourfairs.co.uk, to not only explain the issues in more detail, but to also collect signatures, which they will then pass on to HMRC, MPs and Government ministers.
They have also produced a leaflet that will be distributed at fairs. Those that would like to help distribute the leaflet should email email@example.com. Updates about the campaign will be posted on twitter at @SaveOurFairs


text: A little error people make (even the movie makers) is that Frankenstien is the Dr/bloke that made the monster.Frankenstein Friday celebrates the creator of Frankenstein and the first actor to play Frankenstein. Frankenstein obviously holds no terror nor scare factor nowadays, but that's only because the legendary monster was overplayed and parodied far too often; sort of like every ****ing meme on the internets. So yeah, today's a cool holiday for all you horror fans out there. Oh, and here's a fun fact for ya; did you know Shelley didn't create Frankenstein on imagination alone? At least some of her inspiration comes from the true story of a scientist who was a pioneer of electricity. He would shock corpses of animals, limbs, and eventually whole cadavers and cause their nervous systems to react and thus, "reanimate" the dead, stunning on-looking crowds. Alessandro Volta believed he'd one day be able to permanently bring someone back to life with electricity, but as you know, this never happened; or at least, it happened only in a book.

In a publicity grabbing special offer, Mitsubishi New Zealand has announced that it will offer a free goat with every Mitsubishi Triton sold before August. The company says this initiative aims to support local productivity.
The strange incentive is designed to get exposure for the Triton and draw comparisons between the vehicle and goats. Peter Wilkins, MMNZ general manager points out that "Goats, like our Tritons, are hardy, versatile units, which will integrate directly into existing farm operations".
Wilkins goes further "At MMNZ, we are aware that three years of drought has severely depleted sheep and beef populations, so what better time to 'float the goat'? We'll supply a free goat with every Triton sold before August and do our bit to loosen the grip of the recession".
In the unthinkable instance that someone wants a Mitusbishi Triton without the goat, Mr Wilkins explains how it could still work out, "On the off chance that the purchaser already has enough goats or feels that goat herding is better left to those in drier climes, we'll supply a 'no goat package' consisting of a five-year/100,000km extended warranty, five free WOF inspections, 5,000km road user charges, five years of roadside assistance and $500 of genuine or approved Triton accessories."
You have to appreciate Mitsubishi NZ's humour, and as a publicity stunt it has been effective with International motoring websites quickly reporting on the odd offer. However, it's stunts like these which only reinforce global stereotypes of New Zealand being a livestock obsessed rural backwater, if that was true we would all need Tritons just to get around.

Home › Forums › Basic Erlang › Erlang distributed random numbers › Reply To: Erlang distributed random numbers
Hi mbeddo,
I would do something like this:
%% erlang/2 returns a random number from an Erlang-K distribution
%% with a rate R. K must be a positive integer.
erlang(K, R) when is_integer(K), is_number(R), K > 0, R > 0 ->
erlang(K, R, 1).
%% erlang/3 are functions that generate Erlang random numbers
%% according to the recipe given in the Wiki article about Erlang
%% distribution.
erlang(0, R, Acc) ->
erlang(K, R, Acc) ->
erlang(K-1, R, Acc*random:uniform()).
As you can see, I added guards as early as possible in the erlang/2.
When you separate guards with comma, they are treated like logical "AND",
so all of them have to match.
mymodule:erlang(1, 3.0).
mymodule:erlang(-1, 2).
** exception error: no function clause matching mymodule:erlang(-1,2) (mymodule.erl, line 7)
This is usually enough information for someone to check out the source
and look for the guards expressions.
If you want to give specific error message, like "K should be positive real number",
you can use case in erlang/2, but I think guards are enough.

Hands down, voxeljet (NYSE: VJET ) is the most expensive 3-D printing stock around. At current levels, this industrial 3-D printing company is trading at around 25 times 2014 expected sales -- well above its peers. However, price isn't the only issue with voxeljet.
Recently, the company burned through about $13.7 million, or 20% of its IPO proceeds, to purchase its German headquarters and expand the service center on site. In the year prior, the company spent roughly $400,000 renting the same property. This could be a huge warning sign that management doesn't know how to efficiently deploy capital, which could lead to non-accretive equity raises down the road. As an investor, a management team that doesn't know how to effectively deploy capital is probably best to be avoided.
In the following video, 3-D printing analyst Steve Heller makes a case for why voxeljet shouldn't be part of your portfolio.
A better way to invest in 3-D printing
For the first time since the early days of this country, we're in a position to dominate the global manufacturing landscape thanks to a single, revolutionary technology: 3D printing. Although this sounds like something out of a science fiction novel, the success of 3D printing is already a foregone conclusion to many manufacturers around the world. The trick now is to identify the companies -- and thereby the stocks -- that will prevail in the battle for market share. To see the three companies that are currently positioned to do so, simply download our invaluable free report on the topic by clicking here now.

Frozen: Adventures by Disney is Going to Norway!Sunny Chanel
My grandfather Hans Andersen (no relation to the one-and-only Hans CHRISTIAN Andersen) was from Tønsberg, a little town outside Oslo. When I was young, he would always regale me with stories of skiing to school, eating herring in many different incarnations, and of the majestic beauty of the mountains and towns. He is no longer with us, but his stories are very much ingrained in my mind, and Norway has always been at the top of my "places to go" list. But for some reason, whenever we plan a family vacation, we always end up at Disneyland. And now, I am so very tempted to go the land of my ancestors since those two — Disney and Norway — are being combined!
This week, Adventures by Disney announced they would be traveling to the Nordic region, home of fjords, gorgeous vistas, and Vikings, in honor of Disney's upcoming animated feature Frozen. Disney stated, "Our guests will follow in the footsteps of the Frozen filmmakers and experience the breathtaking beauty of this magnificent country."
Frozen is loosely based on the Hans Christian Andersen fairytale The Snow Queen that was originally published back in 1845. The filmmakers went to Wyoming in the winter to get what they needed to capture the motion of walking in snow, they went to the Ice Hotel in Quebec, Canada to study how light interacts with snow and ice, and finally, they went to Norway for everything else, from the mountains, architecture, and even the clothing.
More details about this amazing Adventures by Disney trip will be coming soon, and reservations will open on October 15th. One thing is for sure, it will be an adventure of a lifetime from Adventures by Disney!

The lethal combination of Star Plus and Ekta Kapoor is back with an epic love story that begins tonight. The show is called Tere Liye, and it is set in Kolkata. The serial tells the story of Taani and Anuraag, whose romance brings out the higher emotions of sacrifice, selflessness and nobility that people experience in love.
Taani and Anuraag are separated by circumstance and reunited by the unbreakable bond of love.
Says Ekta Kapoor, "Tere Liye presents a whole new perspective on love stories, with the core thought being that love ennobles you and makes you a bigger and better person." She adds, "Balaji Telefilms and Star Plus have always partnered to bring superlative television experience for its viewers. We expect Tere Liye to find resonance with our audience and do well like our other shows on Star Plus".
Taani, played by the beautiful Anupriya Kapoor, represents the perfect traditional Bengali girl. Anuraag, on the other hand, is an emotional boy, who loves with his heart and soul, is intense and honest and expects his soul mate to reciprocate the same. Handsome Harshad Chopra plays Anuraag.
We spoke to Anupriya about the show and she said: "The first episode of the show will show a love story that's begun in childhood. I am a simple Bengali traditional girl who understands Anuraag. She believes in selfless devotion towards her love."
Tere Liye has the most interesting and experienced ensemble of actors who will take it to a different high. It also stars popular actors like Rajat Tokass, Neha Janpandit, Aadesh Chaudhary, Shakti Arora, Neha Saxena, Geetanjali Tikekar, Chanderkant Tanreja and Supriya Shukla will bring in the quintessential drama and keep viewers asking for more.
Tere Liye premiering on June 14, 2010 at 10 pm and replaces Sabki Laadli Bebo that moves to 6.30 pm on STAR Plus.
